Jiang Wenhao felt that what the woman said was also true. He didn't ask Xiaoxue more about the cloud bath in her heart, and couldn't help but ask, "Young master, are there any ghosts in the pool?" ”

The woman hurriedly said, "Madam, you are so young and beautiful, the water monster in the pool must like it very much." You still don't want to go, it's really dangerous,,

"Alright, don't fool the crowd, what a ghost. It's just that you were sweating that day, and the water in the pool was too cold, and you and your prostitute got sick, and when it was hot, you sweated into your body, and naturally got sick, what does it have to do with ghosts? Du Wenhao said that his voice was not loud. But the tone was stern, and when the woman heard it, her frightened face changed, and how could she dare to continue?

Du Wenhao saw that the weather was fine, the clouds were light and the wind was light, it was really a good weather, so he asked Xue Yi'er and them to go into the Wei tent to take a bath, and when he saw the worried look on the woman's face, he slowed down her complexion and said, "I am a doctor from the capital, let me take a look at the illness for you." ”

The woman saw that Du Wenhao had a lot of pomp, not to mention that he was just a doctor, so she didn't dare to say a word. Hurriedly nodded and agreed: "Yes, thank you young master." ”

"Don't call me young master, call me doctor, or Lang Zhong. Sit down, and I'll ask you a few questions. Then check your pulse and tongue, and then prescribe medicine. ”

"I—" I don't have money to buy medicine.

"I have medicine, I'll give it to you, for the sake of your kindness to remind us that there are ghosts in the waterhole, to prove that you are a kind person."

"Hee-hee, that's what everyone in the village says."

Du Wenhao inquired in detail about the illness and learned that the peasant woman was cold and her legs were sore at that time. Especially the calves, stiff and unable to walk. It was sent back by his family, and later he was treated by many people in Langzhong, but it has been ineffective for 15 years.

Du Wenhao carefully observed his complexion, low fever on his forehead, and learned that he felt headache and calf pain and swelling, dizziness, fatigue, lack of intake, and normal menstruation, but he was dripping with his tongue, and he knew that his tongue was pale and white, and his pulse was thin. It should be caused by long-term illness and lack of qi deficiency and heat, lack of middle qi, and unstable health. Prepare the following to use the tonic qi soup to remove the heat, but deep down, I always feel that something is wrong, and I don't know what is wrong. I thought about it, and then asked, "Do you know what medicine you have taken all these years?" ”

This woman has been tormented by this disease for fifteen years, and the so-called long-term illness has become a doctor, and she immediately laughed and said: "I know." All kinds of medicines, which one you ask Lang Zhong prescribes? ”

"Well, let's last one."

"It was opened by Li Langzhong in the East Village, I have been eating it for two years, and I can memorize it. There are Astragalus chinensis, ginseng, Atractylodes, Cimicifuga, Bupleurum, Angelica sinensis, Citrus tangerine, Artemisia annua, Digupi, and Yancao. ”

Du Wenhao sighed in his heart, isn't this the addition and subtraction of the tonic and qi-nourishing soup, and he is still going to use this recipe to treat this woman's pain, but he didn't expect that people have been eating it for two years, and it has no effect at all. I didn't feel that my face was a little hot, I coughed lightly, and asked, "You have no effect at all after taking this medicine?" ”

"Yes, I was very angry, and I ran to scold that Li Langzhong; He also exempted me from paying for my medicine. ”

"Then I can't cure your illness, do you want to scold me?" Du Wenhao teased.

The woman's face flushed: "How dare I, that Li Langzhong is a distant cousin of mine, so he dares to scold." You are a big official from the capital, how can I have the courage, besides, you are kind enough to treat me. Give me medicine, even if it can't be cured, I shouldn't scold you. Which Lang Zhong can cure all diseases? ”

"Hehe, it's good that you understand, but don't worry. I should be able to cure you. Du Wenhao said this, but his heart was a little unsteady, pondering where there was a problem with his previous thinking, thinking that under normal circumstances, long-term illness and body weakness are the norm, and its heat is mostly due to deficiency and heat, especially qi deficiency and heat. And in this case, the use of Buzhong Yiqi soup will definitely work, since it does not work now, it means that it is not a false evidence of heat.

You must know that long-term illness may not be much false, and there are also empirical evidence and people who are mixed with deficiency and cold, I am afraid that my previous differentiation is wrong. I immediately decided to ask about the symptoms in detail. Re-examine to see if there is something wrong with the syndrome.

Du Wenhao asked her how she had spent all these years and what she did when she was very sick, and asked for a while. Now this woman has a low fever and many signs of cold and heat, and it is also accompanied by bitterness and dizziness. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, this is the evidence of Chai Hu Tang! You should use Xiao Chai Hu Tang to drink the original drink to reconcile Shaoyang and clear the evil of the membrane original!

Du Wenhao asked the maid to get a pen and paper, and wrote a recipe and asked the maid to run to get the medicine. Then he said to the woman, "I'll prescribe you a prescription, and I'll take care of the medicine for you." Go back and keep taking it, it should be cured. ”

"Okay, thank you, young master!"

After seeing the woman off, Du Wenhao walked to the side of the tent. I heard a crisp laugh coming from inside the tent. Spread out the curtain and look inside, only to see a few big beauties wearing only close-fitting clothes, playing in the water. Seeing the blood rushing, he simply took off his clothes and went down into the water, and now, the waterhole was even more laughing and playing.

Besides, after the woman took the medicine back, she went back. I told my family, and some people said they couldn't eat it. Some people say that the dead horse is a live horse doctor anyway, eat and eat, the woman thinks that Du Wenhao is very kind, and people don't want to do anything for themselves, so they shouldn't harm themselves. I decided to follow the decoction. Unexpectedly, after only taking a few doses, the low-grade fever disappeared, and the headache, dizziness and head pain were greatly reduced, and I took a few more doses. All the symptoms disappeared and never recovered.

The woman's family was grateful, and they all said that this was the heavenly medicine king and the god who came down to earth, so they set up a memorial arch at home, and burned incense every day to pray and bless. The team walked forward for a few more days, and finally came to the boundary of Huangzhou.

When there was still half a day away from the Huangzhou Prefecture Office, the front team visited the Malay newspaper and said that there were Huangzhou officials waiting to greet them at the roadside farewell kiosk ahead.

It turned out that the Huangzhou Prefecture had been notified by the officials. There will be messengers to deliver the Divine Decree. The state government sent people to wait here for several days, but they didn't expect Du Wenhao and them to come slowly, so they waited here. It's finally here.

Du Wenhao accompanied Gonggong Ning to the ten-mile long pavilion, only to see more than a dozen officials standing for a long time, bowing down and standing an elderly official, wearing the official robe of the county lieutenant, standing first, and seeing Du Wenhao wearing a five-grade official robe and Gonggong Ning wearing a eunuch uniform; hurriedly greeted him, and arched his hand: "Humble Ye Yirong, bowed to the county lieutenant of Huangzhou, and came to greet the errand on behalf of the lord of Zhizhou." Don't dare to ask the two of you,? ”

Li Pu hurriedly stepped forward and introduced: "This is the father-in-law of Qin Chaning. This is the former imperial doctor, and the former commander of the Imperial Forbidden Army. Chengdu Fu Lu Yazhou collusion officer Du Wenhao Du. ”

Ye Yirong immediately smiled all over his face, nodded and made a gesture: "The two adults have worked hard all the way. Wei Wende, Wei County, Guanzuo Township, Shen in the city armor, where the thin wine is prepared, please rest for a while in the air armor team, and then pack up and enter the city. ”

Gonggong Ning nodded: "Imperial Doctor Du, then let's rest for a while." ”

Du Wenhao said: "Okay, General Yi Lipu, you let the army rest in place for half an hour, and then go out and camp outside the city." Li Pu agreed, and went down to pass the money

Du Wenhao and Father-in-law Ning entered the pavilion together. The two officials behind Ye Yirong hurriedly rode back on fast horses to report.

In the pavilion, a banquet has been placed, as well as melon and fruit snacks, the county lieutenant Ye Yirong and the entourage officials nodded with smiling faces next to each other and toasted Du Wenhao and the two, introducing some basic conditions and customs of Huangzhou, Du Wenhao and Ning Gonggong drank very well, the wine was dry, Ye Yirong and others drank very happily, and there were a few officials who could not drink, and they were brilliant on the spot, and they still continued to accompany the wine.

An hour later, Du Wenhao and Father-in-law Ning were a little smoky, while Ye Yirong and other officials were even more drunk and hazy, and their steps were a little unsteady.

Du Wenhao said: "Okay." Let's go into town. ”

From here on, you can no longer ride in a carriage, and you have to change it to an official sedan chair. Father-in-law Ning is a messenger, and his sedan chair walks in front. There are Ouchi guards who sound gongs to open the way. Du Wenhao followed, and behind his guards, all the female dependents also changed to a small sedan chair and followed into the city.

At the gate of the city, Zhizhou Wei Wende wore the official robe of Zhizhou, and led a county official and township officials to bow down.

Gong Ning's official sedan chair came to the city gate, and Wei Zhizhou and the others hurriedly bowed down to salute. Father-in-law Ning just lifted the sedan curtain and nodded: "You don't have to be polite, has the incense case been placed in the yamen?" ”

Wei Wende hurriedly replied with a smile: "It's ready, it's just,"

"What's wrong?" Father-in-law Ning's face sank.

"Back to my father-in-law, Su Shi and Su Zizhan, who received the order, were seriously ill in bed, and I didn't know what to do; You can't come to meet you. ”

Su Dongpo's words. Although he was demoted to Huangzhou as a petty official, he was a great writer after all, and Zhizhou was still very polite when he mentioned him.

"What?" Father-in-law Ning was stunned for a moment, and came from afar to issue the decree, but the person who received the decree was unexpectedly sick. Du Wenhao also heard it. Busy asked, "What about the others?" ”

"Recuperate at home."

Ning Gong said fairly: "Hurry up and lead the way, and take our family and Imperial Doctor Du to have a look!" ”

"Yes!" Wei Wende instructed the officials in charge of the reception to welcome Du Wenhao's wife and concubine family to the post station to stay and rest, and let the villagers go back to the yamen in the evening, and then went to the yamen to participate in the banquet and go on a business trip, and then got into their own official sedan chair with several major officials of the yamen, and the front leader led the way, and took Du Wenhao and his party to turn around and walk outside the city.

"Wait!" Father-in-law Ning lifted the sedan curtain and shouted, "What are you doing outside the city?" ”

Wei Wende's official sedan chair stopped. He lifted the sedan curtain and got out of the sedan chair, bowed down and replied: "Back to my father-in-law, Su Zizhan lives on the east slope of the mountain outside the city. ”

"What? Isn't he the deputy envoy of the regimental training? What to do in the mountains? ”

"This," maybe he is aiming for Mingyuan. ”

"What words! He is an official, not an old peasant! Alright, let's go take a look. ”

The group headed out of the city. Soon after leaving the city, they began to go up the mountain. It is a small hill, full of pine trees.

In a small forest near the top of the mountain, there are several thatched houses, behind the house is a vegetable field, planted with quiet melons, fruits and vegetables, a small yard in front of the door, there are a few dustpans on the ground, and some wild vegetables are placed in it. Two women were sitting on a stool, threshing wild vegetables. Two and a half children sat on the floor and helped the two women tidy up.

Seeing that there were many people coming in the distance at the bottom of the mountain, the older children stood up, pointed at them and said something, and ran into the house. Immediately, a teenager came out of the house, stood in front of the door and raised his hand to look up.

Their sedan chair came to a stop in front of the courtyard gate, and everyone got out of the sedan chair.

The young man Mao Jing came out to the gate of the courtyard, and the two women also stood up, holding the child in their hands, and looked at them.

The young master recognized that it was Wei Zhizhou, and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to salute: "Lord Zhizhou is here!" ”

"Well, Su Gongzi!" Wei Zhizhou returned the salute and introduced Du Wenhao and Ning Gonggong: "This is Su Zizhan's eldest son Su Mai. He pointed to the two children at the door who were looking out and said, "That's the second son Su Zao and the third son Su Guo." ”

The two women hurriedly let the child into the house, and then stepped forward and gave each of them a blessing: "The concubine is a concubine who sees Lord Changzhou." ”

Wei Zhizhou said to Gonggong Ning and Du Wenhao: "Two adults, this is Su Zizhan's wife and concubine, both surnamed Wang. Wang, this is Gonggong Ning and Imperial Doctor Yang who came to the capital to preach the holy decree. ”

The two women hurriedly owed a blessing.

Du Jianhao glanced at it. Both women were relatively young, one appeared to be in his mid-thirties, the other was not yet twenty. The childishness on his face has not subsided.

Wei Zhizhou arched his hand and said, "How is Brother Zizhan's condition, is he at home?" ”

"Alas, they're all sick like this, where else can they go. Lying on the bed in the back room, please come in. ”

Du Wenhao entered the courtyard. Seeing that this yard was indeed too simple, he glanced at the wild vegetables in the dustpan on the ground, and asked Wei Zhixian in a low voice: "They won't eat this, right?" ”

Wei Zhixian's face was a little embarrassed, and he said in a low voice: "Yes, Su Zizhan Yuefeng only has five hundred Wen, which is not enough to support a family of six." The three children couldn't help, so they told the yamen to open up wasteland on the eastern slope outside the city and grow some food and things that could fill their stomachs. Now is the time for the green and yellow. When the stored grain is finished, the crops in the field are stabilized, and what can you do if you don't eat wild vegetables? ”

"Aren't there fruits and vegetables in the backyard?"

"It was sold in the city to make money to supplement the family."

Du Wenhao was gloomy, and he couldn't think of Su Shi, a famous writer in history. It was reduced to the point of eating wild vegetables. Seemingly. The Wutai poetry case hit him hard enough. I don't know how he is now, so let's go and take a look.

Du Wenhao and a few of them followed the two women into the house, the thatched hut was even more simple, the big iron pot on the earthen stove had no ears, the lid of the pot was also cracked a few big cracks, the pot was steaming, Du Wenhao looked at it, only to see a small half pot of wild vegetables boiled in the pot, mixed with some rice bran, rolling with hot water.

The original Wang lifted half of the door curtain and said to the back room: "Master, the father-in-law and the imperial doctor who passed the holy decree in the capital, as well as Wei Zhixian, are here." ”

Du Wenhao took a look inside. I saw a middle-aged man lying on a wooden bed, with a messy beard on his chin, deep eye sockets, and a thin quilt. With a wooden pillow under his head, he struggled to open his eyes.

On the edge of the bed sat two small children, one. Seven or eight years old, one only three or four years old. He was staring at them with dark eyes. Hao, Hao looked at the frail middle-aged man and sighed in his heart, everyone is Su Dongpo who wants to go to the famous article with the toilet Yunxun Mountain and the great Jiangdong?

Su Shi said intermittently: "Mai'er." "Quickly help me up, kneel to receive the holy decree,!" As he spoke, he struggled to lift his head and tried to bend his elbows to prop his body up.

The eldest son, Su Mai, hurriedly stepped forward to support his father's back shoulder, ready to help him up. Du Wenhao said urgently: "Don't move! Let him lie down! Listen to Grandpa Ning first, and I'll show you later! ”

After that, Du Wenhao reached out and pressed Su Shi's shoulder, letting him lie flat, although he was under the concubine on the edge of the bed.

Father-in-law Ning in the back smiled. said to Su Shi: "Zizhan, you are also a fortune teller, do you know who this person in front of you is?" He is the first divine doctor today, the emperor's imperial physician, and the imperial doctor's surname is Du Mingwen Hao, and the word Yunfan is also. With him here, even if King Yama comes, he won't be able to help you, hehehe"

As soon as he heard this, Su Shi's wife Wang Yanzhi and the concubine Wang Chaoyun were really surprised, and they knelt on the ground with their skirts: "Lord Imperial Doctor, please save my master!" ”

Seeing this, the three children also knelt down and kowtowed.

Du Wenhao hurriedly helped the child up, and at the same time said to the second woman: "The two sisters-in-law can't help this, please get up quickly, although Yunfan has never met Brother Zizhan, he has admired him for a long time, this time the emperor has issued a holy decree again, let Brother Zizhan be my colleague, I will definitely do my best to cure Brother Zizhan's illness." ”

These few words immediately ignited the hope in the hearts of Su Shijin's family. It wasn't just Dr. Xi, who was the imperial doctor, who came to see him personally. Recovery is hopeful, and what is even more surprising is that listening to Du Wenhao's words, the emperor seems to reuse Su Shi's meaning.

They only learned the news that the Qin mission was coming to deliver the decree, but they didn't know what it was, so they kept wondering in their hearts, not knowing whether it was a blessing or a curse. Now that I have listened to it, it is certain that it must be good news, and I can't help but smile.

Ning Gong said fairly: "Since Brother Zizhan is bedridden, our family will do the right to do it, and your eldest son will kneel for you to receive the holy decree." ”

Su Shi smiled reluctantly: "Thank you." Thank you, father-in-law! ”

The eldest son, Su Mai, was very clever, and hurriedly picked up his robe and knelt on the ground.

Gonggong Ning coughed lightly, took out the golden scroll, slowly unfolded it, and read the holy decree in the throat of the male duck. Immediately, the holy decree was handed over to Sumai. Su Mai kowtowed in thanksgiving, stood up, and handed the holy decree to his father Su Shi on the bed.

Su Shi has heard clearly, and the emperor has named himself the governor of Chengdu Fulu Yazhou. Before being demoted, Su Shi served as the governor of Xuzhou, and now he is the governor of Yazhou, judging from the level brush, he has been reinstated as an official, and he was excited, and he couldn't help but have two lines of tears rolling down from the corners of his eyes, with the help of his son Su Mai, he looked at the north from afar, and raised his hand with difficulty: "Weichen" Xie Huangshang Longen"! ”

Ning Gong said fairly: "It is natural for the emperor's grace to be vast, but, Brother Zizhan, if it weren't for Imperial Doctor Du recommending you in front of the emperor, I'm afraid that this holy decree wouldn't be able to come down." ”

Yes? Su Shi's family looked at Du Wenhao gratefully.

Gonggong Ning smiled and said: "Zizhan, you don't know yet, Imperial Doctor Du is the former chief doctor, and the former commander of the Forbidden Army Palace, the former lieutenant of the Forbidden Army, is the fifth grade, Imperial Doctor Du is not only like a god, but also has a unique view on changing the law to benefit the people, after the emperor listened to the high opinion of the Imperial Doctor Du, he immediately decided to seal the Imperial Doctor Du to manage Yazhou Changping, and let him implement his new law in Yazhou, which is different from Wang Anshi's change. After Imperial Doctor Du received the order, he strongly recommended you to the emperor as a colleague, knowing the affairs of Yazhou, saying that you are a Confucian in the world, and the poetry and songs are the best in ancient and modern times, and said that when you were an official, you were sympathetic to the people's feelings and loved the people. Got it? ”

Su Shi didn't finish listening, he was already in tears, choked up and said to Du Wenhao: "Imperial Doctor Du, how can you be so degraded, you can get such love from the imperial doctor, close to it, Mai'er, you still don't thank Imperial Doctor Du for his great kindness!" Ahem, ahem

Under the agitation of the mood, Su Shi coughed violently.

His wife and concubine and son were about to kneel, but they were stopped by Du Wenhao: "Don't! This is all the emperor's grace, and I don't have much credit for it. Now it's important to cure the disease and save people first, Brother Zizhan, your illness is already a crisis of yin fluid dying and righteousness will be disabled. I can't delay any longer. ”

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly retreated, Du Wenhao sat down on the edge of the bed again, looked at Su Shixiao, saw that his forehead was covered with cold sweat, his cheeks and cheekbones were burning red, he reached out, his tentacles were hot, and asked, "Do you feel cold?" ”

"Well, it's cold when you get up" and I was sweating hot while lying down. "Stick out your abandoned head and I'll see."

Looking at the tongue, the tongue is dry, and the moss is thin and burnt. Du Wenhao asked again: "What else is uncomfortable?" ”

"Pain in the left flank, cough, red sputum."

As he spoke, Su Shi coughed violently again, and there was a ho-ho phlegm sound in his throat. Concubine Wang Chaoyun hurriedly took a piece of straw paper and gave him phlegm. Du Wenhao took a look, and sure enough, there was blood in the sputum.

Du Wenhao asked: "Do you cough and spit a lot every day?" ”

Su Qian kept panting. The original concubine Yan Zhi replied: "Many, almost as many as three teacups!" ”

Du Wenhao raised his wrist to diagnose the pulse, and now Su Shi's left pulse was fine, and the right side was slippery and weak, and he had already understood six or seven points in his heart, and then asked again: "How long has this disease been?" ”

Wang Runzhi and Wang Chaoyun glanced at each other, thought for a while, and Wang Runzhi said: "It should be that Gu Yu started to get sick around the time." I looked for a few Lang Zhong, but I didn't look good, and it has been delayed until now, and my condition is getting worse and worse" Speaking of the back, Wang Yanzhi's words choked up.

Du Wenhao looked up at the roof. I could see the sky outside, and I looked at the wall made of wooden planks and bark, and there were gaps everywhere, so I sighed and said, "Brother Zizhan doesn't suffer less from the cold in winter, right?!" ”

Su Shi finally stopped coughing violently, and said slowly: "Yes, this hut is really not enough to withstand the wind and cold. I'm nothing. It's just bitter for them. ”

"You're nothing? Hehe, this is how you got this disease, this is spring temperature disease, the root of the disease is the cold of the winter, the cold evil lurks in the camp, after the beginning of spring, occasionally touch a new feeling. At the beginning of your illness, you should have had a cold and heat without sweating and headaches, right? ”

"Yes," Su Shi was surprised. It is really surprising that Du Wenhao can tell his symptoms a few months ago at a glance.

"How did the Lang Zhong you found prescribe medicine to you? Is the prescription still there? ”

"Yes!" Concubine Wang Chaoyun hurriedly said: "I'll show it to you!" ”

Wang Chaoyun went from the wooden cabinet in the corner of the wall to the sea, and finally found the prescription, and hurriedly handed it to Du Wenhao.
