The Empress Dowager's words have come to this point, what else does Du Wenhao have to choose? He took a step forward with a bitter face, bowed down and said: "The little one is grateful for the grace of Lafayette, and the little one is willing to follow Lafayette before and after the saddle horse, and never give up!" ”

The Empress Dowager showed a smile on her face: "Well, that's right, don't worry, the mourning family won't embarrass you." The mourning family also knows that you are a big man who is responsible for treating the harem concubines, and there may be something wrong with it, so the mourning family will ask the female doctor of the Tai Hospital, Cheng Xia Jiupo, to be your assistant, and when you need to do a female examination, she will come forward and report the results to you. Xia Jiupo is a mourning person, this person is more than loyal, lacks ability, and his brain is not very open, you have to allocate more to her in everything. ”

"Yes!" Du Wenhao breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you ancestor for your observation." ”

"In addition to the concubines' more milk fetish, there are also some inexplicable diseases, the mourning family is worried that Wang Anshi is secretly making trouble, you have to find out about this matter for the mourning family and maintain the peace of the harem!"

"Yes, follow Lafayette's will!"

The Empress Dowager stared at Du Wenhao for a moment, then nodded slowly, clapped her palms, and an old eunuch came in from outside the house, staggering, holding a whisk in his hand, and stood bent. The Empress Dowager asked him to send Du Wenhao out.

Du Wenhao glanced at the old eunuch, but it was an acquaintance, last time Wei Ling'er, the daughter of Wei An, the former secretary of the palace, was sick and hospitalized in Wuwei Hall, the empress dowager had sent this old eunuch to visit Wei Ling'er, and also gave Du Wenhao's family a lot of silk and satin. I remember that the old eunuch's surname is Jiao.

Following Gonggong Jiao out of the palace, Du Wenhao found that his back was soaked with cold sweat, and when he looked up and thought about it, he didn't know whether this matter was a curse or a blessing.

Back at home, Pang Yuqin and the others were relieved, and when they asked about the experience, Du Wenhao only said that the Empress Dowager wanted to promote herself to the judge of the Tai Hospital, as for the reason, he just said a few words, and he didn't dare to say it in detail.

Pang Yuqin and the others were very happy when they heard it. Only Lin Qingdai was careful, and found that Du Wenhao's expression was a little dazed, and asked him quietly in private, but this matter was very important, Du Wenhao really didn't dare to talk nonsense, just smiled and said that it was okay.

The next day, not long after the pharmacy opened, two fast horses galloped over, and the two palace eunuchs turned over and dismounted, hurriedly stepped inside, and saw Du Wenhao, and announced: "The holy decree will arrive immediately!" Mr. Du, please bring his wife to set up an incense case and prepare to receive the holy decree! ”

The Du family suddenly panicked, they didn't expect the holy decree to come so quickly, but fortunately, Pang Yuqin was careful, and had already ordered to prepare the incense case, and Du Wenhao and the two changed into new clothes, and it was too late to bathe, so they ordered the servants to open the main gate of Sweet Water Lane, and Du Wenhao took Pang Yuqin to the door and bowed down to wait. Lin Qingdai and others avoided both sides.

After a while, more than a dozen palace guards guarded a four-person sedan chair, flickering, two little eunuchs on both sides waited, came to the main gate and stopped, the little eunuch lifted the curtain, and helped out an old eunuch from the inside.

This old eunuch is also a little too old, his face is full of wrinkles and he can't even tell where his eyes are, holding a golden scroll in his arms, and with the support of the little eunuch, he came over slowly, and said in a sharp voice: "Where is Mr. Du Wenhao Du?" ”

Du Wenhao recognized at a glance that this justice was the old eunuch Jiao Gonggong who sent him out of the palace yesterday by the Empress Dowager, and he couldn't help but move in his heart, hurriedly stepped forward and bowed down: "Little Du Wenhao, with the clumsy Jing Pang Clan, see Jiao Gonggong!" ”

Pang Yuqin also hurriedly stepped forward, stood half a foot behind her husband's side, and bowed her head.

"Well, has the incense case ever been set up?"

"Back to my father-in-law, it's been laid down."

"Then go in and get the order!"

Du Wenhao and his wife led Jiao's father-in-law to the main hall, where the incense case had been placed. Gonggong Jiao stood in a sway, and said, "Professor Du Wenhao of the Taiyi Bureau, Mrs. Pang Shi, kneel down to receive the order!" ”

Du Wenhao and Pang Yuqin hurriedly lifted their robes and knelt down.

Gonggong Jiao unfolded the golden sunflower ebony shaft in his arms, shook his head and shook his head with a sharp throat and said: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor said: Now the queen mother and other diseases are scabies, the group of doctors are tied, my heart is like burning, and the sleep and food are wasted. Mrs. Pang Shi Yuqin, virtuous and virtuous, Zov Shiren. Immediately promoted Du Wenhao to the judgment of the Imperial Forest Hospital, gave him a purple-clothed goldfish bag, and served as a doctor in the harem. Mrs. Pang Zi Yuqin Liupin. One hundred taels of gold, one pearl, three pieces of neon clothes, and one hundred brocades. Chin this. Shane! ”

Du Wenhao and Pang Yuqin hurriedly shouted long live, and after thanking them, they got up and respectfully accepted the holy decree.

Father-in-law Jiao smiled and said, "Congratulations to Master Du for his ascension!" Master Du has never been a professor of the Tai Medical Bureau, and he was directly promoted to the judgment of Liupintai Hospital, which can be described as a steady progress, which shows that the emperor's grace is mighty. ”

Du Wenhao hurriedly smiled and humbly said a few words, took out a stack of Jiaozi from his arms, and handed it over with both hands: "Gonggong Jiao issued an edict hard, this is a thousand taels of silver, a little meaning, in the harem and outside the palace, please ask your father-in-law to take care of it." ”

Jiao Gonggong's squinted eyes immediately opened. Eunuchs don't like women, and they can't be officials, so they love yellow and white things more than ordinary people, and ordinary people reward eunuchs who give orders are generally only ten taels, but no more than a hundred taels, but Du Wenhao gave him a thousand taels of silver, and he was so happy that his hands trembled, and he took the hand and pulled it, smiled with his eyebrows, put it in his arms, and said to Du Wenhao: "It is said that Lord Du is loyal and righteous, and when we meet today, I love our family so much, it is true!" Our family has no merit, and we are really ashamed to be ashamed. If there is any dispatch in the future, it will be if our family commands it. ”

"It's inevitable to trouble my father-in-law."

Du Wenhao has calculated it, this Gonggong Jiao is a person next to the Empress Dowager, and last time he visited Wei Linger on behalf of the Empress Dowager, and this time he was ordered to issue an edict, which shows that it must be the proximity of the Empress Dowager, and it seems that he is afraid that he will have to mix in the harem in the future, and there are such people who should take care of things. So Du Wenhao decided to spend a lot of money to bring him over as his eyes and ears.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!" Father-in-law Jiao looked left and right, leaned over and lowered his voice, "The Empress Dowager values Lord Du very much, and Lord Du's good days are still ahead!" Hehehe"

"Hehe, then I have to rely on my father-in-law to help me a lot."

"In the future, my own family, it's easy to say!" The two looked at each other meaningfully and smiled.

After sending off Father-in-law Jiao, the Du family suddenly became lively, and Lin Qingdai and others came to congratulate him. Pang Yuqin ordered a feast tonight and sent out invitations to congratulate her husband on his promotion to the judgment of Liupintai Hospital, and also to celebrate his life.

That night, the Du family put up a lantern, Kaifeng Shaoyin Zhuang conspired, Du Wenhao's father-in-law Kaifeng Governor Pang Jinghui, as well as the envoys of the Tai Hospital, the court judge and the Tai Doctor of various departments, etc., as well as the palace secretary who had asked Du Wenhao to diagnose the disease, Du Yu Hou Wei An, the member of the Ministry of Rites, Lord Lang Wen, the servant Shi Xue Hexue, etc., all came to congratulate in person. Even the Ministry of War, the grain and grass and military quarters were in control, and General Gao Jinwei and Gao sent people to send congratulatory gifts.

The official qualities of these people are either at the same level as Du Wenhao, or below them, but Du Wenhao has a purple-clothed goldfish bag that only has three products from the imperial gift, so except for Pang Jinghui, the father-in-law, the rest of the people all met with the courtesy of the lower officials, and they really stammered with Du Wenhao.

Du Wenhao, as a judge of the Tai Hospital, has a special mansion in the Tai Hospital, but Du Wenhao does not want to move to the Tai Hospital, so he still lives in his own home and is relaxed and refreshing.

The next day, Du Wenhao took him to the hospital to report. The envoy of the Tai Hospital did not collect money and other colleagues held a banquet to entertain them.

Originally, Du Wenhao was already well-known in the capital, and this time he was ordered to treat the harem concubines, only people with brains know that Du Wenhao was promoted from the professor of the Taiyi Bureau to the judge of the Zhengliupin Tai Hospital, and the royal gift of purple goldfish bags can be described as a steady progress, even the envoy (dean) of the Tai Hospital of the Zheng Wupin also deliberately stammered, not to mention others

If you don't collect money, you are the doctor of the pediatric department of the Tai Hospital, and she is the happiest, the master has become a big official, and the so-called good shade under the big tree will make his life better in the future.

Cheng Xia Jiupo, the female doctor of the Tai Hospital, is an old woman in her fifties, and she has received a secret order from the Empress Dowager to assist Du Wenhao in finding out the cause of the illness of the harem concubines. So he also deliberately stammered Du Wenhao. At this reception, Du Wenhao ate very happily.

Although he was full of wine and food, Du Wenhao had an empty head, how to investigate the cause of the concubines in the harem, he had no bottom in his heart, and that afternoon, he called Xia Jiupo alone to discuss.

Du Wenhao said: "Lord Xia, you must also know the Empress Dowager's decree, you and I want to complete the important task of the Empress Dowager, how to act, this official wants to hear what you mean." ”

The first time Du Wenhao said the word "official", he felt a little awkward, but it has been more than half a year since he came to the Song Dynasty, and he heard the officials say so, but he didn't say it, but it was weird, and if he didn't put on a score when he was an official, he wouldn't be like an official, he would not have official authority, and the people below would not be afraid of you, so it would be difficult to prohibit it. Therefore, the necessary official appearance still has to be placed.

Xia Jiupo replied respectfully: "Back to Lord Du, I have examined all the ladies in the palace for my humble position, at first glance, the condition is not complicated, and the medicine has also been effective, but it has repeatedly relapsed, and I am puzzled. ”

"Tell me about the results."

"Yes!" Xia Jiu Po 1510 told her about the situation of the harem concubines to diagnose the disease, including the milk fetish of the empress dowager.

After listening to this, Du Wenhao also felt that there was nothing particularly peculiar about this condition, and he was still confused as to why it relapsed repeatedly. Then he said: "Early tomorrow morning, you will follow me into the palace and give you a follow-up examination one by one." ”

"Yes! Humble obedience. ”

The next day, Du Wenhao took Xia Jiupo to the harem.

The harem guards had already received the Empress Dowager's decree, and Du Wenhao and Xia Jiupo could enter and leave the harem at will, so they were released after checking the waist cards of the two.

Du Wenhao was not in a hurry to see a doctor, asked the eunuchs in the palace, and learned that Gonggong Jiao happened to be on an errand that day, so he asked the little eunuch to lead the way and came to the Empress Dowager's bedroom to meet Gonggong Jiao for advice.
