Du Wenhao smiled, handed the small bag to Li Pu, and said: "This is a good thing, let people send it back to the capital quickly, it can cure the illness of Lord Sima and the emperor, and then I will write down the method of eating it and put it in the small bag, and I want to do this matter quickly." ”

Li Pu pointed to the two soldiers and said, "Then what about these two people?" ”

Du Wenhao smiled and said, "That's your General Li Pu's business." ”

It was inconvenient for Li Pu to say more in front of the two soldiers, so he asked the two to be escorted away, and then he said: "My lord, the last general is really reluctant to let you go." ”

Du Wenhao didn't want to mention this matter again, so he changed the topic and said, "By the way, did the old bustard say anything when you sent Ke Yao back?" ”

Li Pu pondered for a moment, looked left and right at no one, lifted his robe and knelt down on one knee, hugged his fists and said: "Lord Du, the general of the defeated army at the end, poor and destitute, there is no hope of making a comeback in this life, it is you who support you to have today." Mr. Wen Gong Wu strategy, invincible, invincible, defeated tens of thousands of troops in Tibet with less victories, but suffered from this tragic scene, the last general and other brothers and Mr. were born and died, after thinking about it, quite cold for Mr., and was uneven for Mr. Thinking that there is really no attachment to this career, more than a dozen brothers who were born and died discussed, and they are still following Mr. to be free and comfortable, so they are willing to swear to follow Mr. around, before and after the saddle, please take Mr. in! ”

Du Wenhao was stunned for a moment, and stretched out his hand to support Li Pu: "General Li has a great future, why follow me, a quack doctor, to travel all over the world?" ”

"It's my pleasure to wait! We are not the flowers and plants that grow up in the flower garden, please allow us to follow the adults! ”

Du Wenhao was a little moved, although it didn't take long for him and Li Pu to come up with it, but the two of them have always been regarded as heroes and heroes, and now they really want to give up this good partner and go alone, to be honest, they are indeed a little reluctant.

Du Wenhao patted Li Pu's shoulder forcefully and said, "Thank you!" Now that I have been dismissed, I will no longer be called an adult, just call me by my name. ”

"Don't dare!" Li Pu laughed twice, hugged his fists and said, "Mr. is my leading brother, so let's call him Brother Du." ”

Du Wenhao laughed: "Okay! Big brother dragon, hahaha......! ”

……

Before dawn the next day, Li Pu picked up Ke Yao from Le Yao Courtyard, and Du Wenhao and they were waiting at the bottom of the mountain, so Li Pu rode a fast horse and took Ke Yao to the bottom of the mountain to meet Du Wenhao and them.

It seems that Ke Yao didn't sleep well all night, and his expression was very haggard.

Du Wenhao and Lin Qingdai brought more than 20 entourages and monkeys, and when they saw Li Pu and Ke Yao coming, the group began to enter the mountain.

After walking for about an hour, I came to a fork in the road. Ke Yao said to Du Wenhao: "My lord, there is a shortcut from the path on the left. ”

Everyone listened to Ke Yao's words, and sure enough, after walking for a short time, they saw a river, and the Kejia Bridge could already be seen not far away.

Du Wenhao saw Ke Yao's expression gloomy, and his pace gradually slowed down, Du Wenhao said, "Don't you want to go in?" ”

Ke Yao nodded.

Du Wenhao: "You always have to face it, no matter what you will face, remember, you still have all of us." ”

Ke Yao looked at Du Wenhao gratefully and did not speak.

The group crossed the bridge and came to the gate, only to see Ke Yao walk to a stone lion by the door, put his hand into the mouth of the stone lion, and the gate slowly opened.

Once inside, the gate closed automatically.

Ke Yao looked around, and indeed found no one, and then said to Du Wenhao: "My lord, are you going directly to the other courtyard behind the mountain?" ”

Du Wenhao: "You decide this, we will follow you." ”

Ke Yao walked through a long corridor with ease, through the arch, over a stream, and came to a courtyard, the door was hidden, Ke Yao said: "This is where my father and mother live, I want to go in and have a look." ”

Du Wenhao didn't speak, and followed Ke Yao into the door, only to see that the door was a relatively tall white wall, very cleanly painted, and there were four words on the door, "Huaju Yashe", which was obviously an old thing left over from the past. It looks a little incommensurate with other things in the courtyard, Du Wenhao thought, the words Huaju Yashe are very good, there are two entrances in the house, the first one hangs a plaque "Crescent Moon Pavilion", and the second one hangs a plaque "Zhai Mo", the words are written well, and they are very graceful.

"On the left is where my mother took a nap for lunch, on the right is my father's study, and in the middle is where they rest."

Lin Qingdai couldn't help but say: "What an elegant place, you can see that your father is an elegant person at a glance." ”

Ke Yao smiled slightly, walked to a room in the middle, pushed the door open, only to see that the room was already full of dust, the corners of Ke Yao's mouth twitched violently a few times, and he glanced back at Du Wenhao, Du Wenhao understood, stopped, waited for Ke Yao to enter, and then closed the door for her, and soon there was a low cry in the room.

Du Wenhao motioned for everyone to go to the side and wait, and he and Lin Qingdai also sat under an osmanthus tree in the courtyard to enjoy the shade.

"Wen Hao, I saw Ke Yao, this kid is really pitiful." Lin Qingdai sighed lightly and whispered in a low voice.

Du Wenhao said funny: "It's so pitiful, then I'll redeem her and follow us out." ”

Lin Qingdai took it seriously, and said excitedly: "Really, good, she is so smart and beautiful, and she also knows books and etiquette, if you want to accept her as your fifth room, it's fine." ”

Du Wenhao was happy, gently slapped Lin Qingdai's hand, and said, "You are still serious, you are not jealous?" ”

Lin Qingdai whispered: "I'll tell you, you see that Qin'er is virtuous, Fei'er is lively, and she is lovely, you are one of the few smart women like Ke Yao by your side." ”

"Okay, don't go on, I know you dig a hole for me, I don't know you yet, hmph, you're already very smart."

Lin Qingdai giggled, and was about to speak, when the door opened, and Ke Yao walked out, his eyes and little nose were red, and he seemed to be crying sadly.

"I'm sorry, Lord Du has delayed everyone's time, let's move on."

Du Wenhao whispered comfortingly: "Don't think too much, do you want to go to your room again?" ”

Ke Yao looked at Du Wenhao pitifully and said, "Time permits, can I go?" ”

Lin Qingdai: "Let's take a look." ”

Ke Yao bit his lip lightly, and said quietly: "I am lying on my father's bed, as if I can still smell the fragrance of orchids on my mother's body. ”

Lin Qingdai listened, and her nose was sore.

Coming out of the arch and walking through two long corridors to the east, I saw a small courtyard, but the door was locked.

Ke Yao said to Li Pu: "I'm tired of General Li and let people cut down the door lock." ”

Li Pu pulled out his sword, the sword was locked and fell, the door opened, Ke Yao walked in the door, frowned slightly, and quickly retreated, Du Wenhao said, "What's wrong?" ”

"No, no, I saw blood on the door, it must be my sister's, I can't go."

Du Wenhao went in to take a look, and sure enough, he saw a splattered blood stain on the door inside, which was shocking to look at.

"Okay, then we're not going."

"I'll go to the yard of my second uncle, and then we'll go to the graves of my father and sister and my younger siblings."

Du Wenhao didn't expect that Ke Yao's second uncle's yard was even larger than Ke Ming's, that is, Ke Yao's father's yard, and it was even more magnificent.

Ke Yao went straight to the door of a room, the door was still locked, this time Li Pu didn't need Ke Yao to say, a sword slashed down, Ke Yao walked into the door, walked around the room twice, and suddenly walked to the desk and stopped.

"Master Du, please come in."

Du Wenhao went in and walked to Ke Yao's side to take a look, only to see a piece of paper on the table, the paper was already covered with dust, Ke Yao picked up the paper, and it said: God has eyes, I Ke Jue will go.

"Ke Jue is your second uncle?" Du Wenhao asked.

Ke Yao nodded: "Yes." Du Wenhao saw that there were words on the back of the paper, so he picked it up and looked at it, only to see that it was written: Yao'er, don't blame your second uncle, it is your father who is resolute, if one day, you see these things I wrote to you, you know that the second uncle is also ashamed, I took the family away from home, leave this house to you, forget everyone in our Ke family, we buried your father and sister and younger sisters, according to your father's will, just behind your room, so that you can pay tribute.

Du Wenhao handed the paper to Ke Yao, Ke Yao finished reading it, his body trembled, and he said in his mouth: "You are lying, you are deceiving people, you sold me, how can I come back to pay tribute to my father and mother, I hate you Ke Jue ......!" ”

Du Wenhao said softly: "Ke Yao, don't cry, you are sick, you can't be too sad, now that the matter is clear, do you think you still need to go to your family's courtyard?" ”

Ke Yao sobbed, "No...... No, Master Du Ke Yao wants to ask you for something. ”

"You say."

"Sell this mansion for me, and then redeem me."

"Okay, don't cry first, I see that the people in Yazhou may not be able to buy this house, and besides, I looked at the antiques in the room and saw that they are all real, are you willing to give up these things?"

Ke Yao: "There are no more people, what are you doing with these things?" ”

Du Wenhao: "Actually, if you sell one of the calligraphy and paintings, you can come out of Le Yao Courtyard, there is no need to sell all your shelters, what do you say?" ”

Ke Yao shook his head in a panic: "No, no, I don't live here, I am scared here, I don't want to live here." ”

Lin Qingdai walked over and said, "Since Ke Yao doesn't want to live here, then don't force her, this place is indeed a sad place, but I don't think there is any need to sell this mansion, just stay here." Can the food in the courtyard be bought for soldiers in the army? ”

Ke Yao: "It's all up to Master Du and Sister Lin." ”

Lin Qingdai took Ke Yao's hand and said, "Then let's go, find a painting and sell it to redeem yourself, as for this mansion, I don't think ordinary people can enter, there are organs everywhere, it doesn't matter if you lock it up, if you want to come back one day, you can come back to see your father and mother at any time." ”

In the next few days, the grain of the Ke family was bought at an affordable price according to Ke Yao's intentions and used to help the victims.

Ke Yao was alone and very desolate, Du Wenhao asked her what her plans were, and she didn't know.

Li Pu felt sorry in his heart, and suggested to Du Wenhao that if he didn't take her with him, he would call her to help her find a good home and have a good home, which would be better than her being alone. Du Wenhao didn't agree yet, Lin Qingdai and the others agreed first, and all the women cherished this poor girl, looking at Du Wenhao with blank eyes. Of course, Du Wenhao couldn't refuse, so he nodded and agreed.

——————————

Finally, the day of departure came, and the people from all over the country came to see them off.

They also all know that Du Wenhao was dismissed because he did not have the right to lead the army, and in the final analysis, he suffered to save the people, and they were all moved, and Du Wenhao helped restore production during this time, relief to the victims, and defense against the plague. The farmers benefited a lot and were grateful, so they all came to say goodbye.

Originally, Du Wenhao was extremely disheartened, and he just wanted to sleep in the car for a few days and nights, but he could see Su Shi and Han Jiang bringing the squires and the people to see them off. Du Wenhao's gloomy mood was swept away, thinking that he had not done it in vain, although he was dismissed because of this, he did not regret it, he saved the people and saved the lives of countless people, this is the greatest reward.

…………

has been traveling for more than ten miles, and Du Wenhao is still calm in the excitement just now.

Pang Yuqin and the other women were very happy to see that he was in a better mood. Xue Fei'er said, "Brother, where are we going first?" When I asked you earlier, you didn't say anything, but only said that you went south, where is it? ”

Du Wenhao lifted the curtain of the car, looked at the green mountains and green waters, slowly passed by the car, sighed lightly, and said: "Where the heart goes, it is caused by the body!" ”

"What?" Xue Fei'er's eyes widened.

Lin Qingdai said: "Wen Hao means that there is no goal, let's play all the way, and go wherever we want, right?" ”

Du Wenhao nodded, and shook his head again: "Yes, but it's not all right, the emperor asked me to go around the doctor, but he didn't say the specific location, so we can go wherever we want." However, after all, this patrol was to redeem the exile, so he first went to the southwest and south of the penal colony to patrol the doctor, and then turned north. That's the general direction. ”

Li'er asked, "Master, how long will we be patrolling outside?" ”

"What? Scared? ”

"No, wherever the master goes, Li'er will go wherever he goes, and he is not afraid of swords, mountains and fires!"

Du Wenhao stretched out his hand and twisted her smooth face: "The mouth is so sweet, that's good, just follow the master to the soup." ”

Li'er glanced at Ke Yao, who was sitting quietly curled up next to her, embarrassedly, and whispered: "Master, there are others......

Du Wenhao hurriedly retracted his hand and smiled.

Pang Yuqin said: "The husband said that the emperor and the empress dowager want the husband to stay outside for at least a year and a half, and then go back when the wind is calm." So, this time is indispensable. ”

Xue Fei'er grinned and said: "One year is too little, let's finally come out together as a family, we have to have a good time, we have to go shopping for three or five years and then go back." ”

Lin Qingdai said: "According to me, let's not go back to the capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the atmosphere does not dare to come out, the princes and princes are as many as cattle hairs, and they are all older than you, and they have to nod their heads when they see everyone, and the king is like a tiger, the emperor is unhappy that day, and his head is unstable, and this day has not been enough?" It is better to float on the rivers and lakes, be free, and enjoy the mountains and rivers after seeing a doctor, which is what Wen Hao said 'where the heart goes, where the body goes'. Right? ”

Du Wenhao smiled and nodded: "Yes, that kind of life is really enough, it's better to be free, let's be together as a family, enjoy life, where life is good, just live there for a few more days, and I don't care." How wonderful. ”

The women clapped their hands and smiled in agreement.

Only Ke Yao was quiet, like a drop of water.

Sometimes people will have some illusions, in a specific environment and time, people will always understand some things in good faith or malice, and then follow their own illusions to do it, thinking that this must be right, but they don't know that in the eyes of others, you have changed so abruptly that everyone thinks you are crazy.

Ke Yao is like this, he has been getting along with everyone carefully along the way, and he is also respectful to Du Wenhao and his four wives.

On this day, we arrived at a small town in Qingjiang, which belongs to the boundary of Jiazhou, this place is steep, full of cliffs, strange rocks, this is not a big town, but there are only a few hundred people, because there has been no rain for several days, and the weather is too hot, so after Li Pu asked Du Wenhao, the team is ready to stay in this place for two days to rest, prepare some dry food on the road and then go, because it is a group of nearly 30 people, so Du Wenhao asked Li Pu to find a spacious farm yard to rent for two days, Everyone enjoyed the shade in a roadside tea shed.

"Brother Hao, lend me two copies of your medical books for me to see?" Ke Yao walked over to Du Wenhao and sat down.

Du Wenhao smiled: "Why are you suddenly interested in medicine?" ”

"I won't tell you, it's my little secret."

Qian Bu sat at the next table, and asked with concern: "Are you uncomfortable somewhere, tell me, I'll show you." ”

Ke Yao turned his head: "I'm fine." ”

Du Wenhao pointed to the sleepy Pang Yuqin opposite, and said, "Your sister Qin is very obsessed with medical skills, but I don't seem to have any interest in her recently." ”

Pang Yuqin opened her eyes and glanced at him, her eyes were quite complicated.

All this did not escape Ke Yao's eyes, and he said in a low voice: "Sister Pang is tired, she has worked hard these days. ”

Pang Yuqin's eyes softened, and she slowly closed her eyes and continued to sleep.

At this time, Li Pu, who was standing in front of him, quickly galloped back: "Brother Du, it's getting dark, there is a family surnamed Cheng in front, they happen to have a yard idle, I took a look, although it is a little dilapidated, but it is no problem to clean up and stay for one night." ”

Lin Qingdai said: "That's good, it's just that there is no need to be so particular about staying for a short time, let's clean up with a few maids when we go back." ”

Everyone packed up their things and followed Li Pu for a short distance, and sure enough, at the foot of a mountain, they saw an old man waiting at the door with a cane.

Du Wenhao stepped forward to thank him, and the old man saw that he was an easy-going person, and said with a smile: "You came at the right time, we built a new yard next to it, and we moved there a few days ago, and we can live in it, but it's a little old." ”

Ke Yao looked at the old man, hesitated for a moment, and asked in a low voice, "Old man, are you not feeling well?" ”

Old man: "How can you tell, I am probably tired of moving these days, and I am indeed a little uncomfortable." ”

Ke Yao put the salute in his hand on the ground: "Let my brother show you, he is an imperial doctor!" ”

Du Wenhao was made to cry and laugh by Ke Yao, this Ke Yao's fascination with medical skills was much faster than Pang Yuqin's originality, and he didn't learn anything, so his interest came up, but since he had already said it, Du Wenhao had no choice but to follow her wishes.

When the old man heard this, he hurriedly invited Du Wenhao to his new home, sat in the hall and asked his family to serve tea to Du Wenhao and Ke Yao, and then sat down and asked Du Wenhao to give the pulse, while Ke Yao looked at Du Wenhao intently, for fear that he would miss the details in the blink of an eye.

Du Wenhao asked while giving the old man a pulse, "What is the old man's name?" ”

"My surname is Cheng, you can call me an old man."

"What's the place you've been feeling sick lately?" Du Wenhao asked, while observing the face of the old man, and found that his face was indeed a little pale.

"I didn't feel particularly uncomfortable, it was the same when I went to the hut recently...... The color of that booty is wrong. The old man probably didn't know how to poop to Du Wenhao, so he thought about it for a long time and thought of the word stolen goods.

"What color?" Du Wenhao quite understood.

"What's stolen goods?" Who would have thought, Ke Yao on the side asked.

Du Wenhao replied: "." ”

Ke Yaoqiao's face flushed, and he sighed and stopped talking.

"Black." The old man said.

Du Wenhao became alert and asked again: "In addition to black bowel movements, is there any panic, sweating and dizziness?" ”

The old man thought for a while, shook his head, and an old woman, who was the old man's wife, came in and said, "Have you forgotten that when you were cutting pigweed in the field at noon the day before yesterday, didn't you say that you were dizzy and flustered?" ”

The old man said, "What do you know, such a big sun, even a person will be flustered and dizzy." ”

The old woman snorted, "That's what Du Langzhong asked, and you don't remember it." ”

The old man lowered his face and said, "Hurry up and cook, it's very annoying." ”

Du Wenhao smiled and said to the old man: "You still go out to work on such a hot day." ”

The old man whispered, "Look at your daughter-in-law's face and eat." ”

Du Wenhao smiled, the old man also smiled, Du Wenhao said: "Old man, let me show you the tongue elephant, and then touch the pulse." ”
