Chapter 57: Liu's Calligraphy

"After the deliberation of my colleagues, the ministers have a dangerous party that may be able to help the queen mother survive this difficulty. However, for this side, the ministers cannot ensure everything. Wang Zikui knelt on the ground and reported the results of their deliberations.

"Tell me, what's the recipe?" Li Shimin walked down from the bed, gently helped Wang Zikui up, and said, "Aiqing can be blunt!" ”

"Emperor Xie!" Wang Zikui stood up and replied: "The ministers want to add an adjuvant to the herbs used by the queen mother-arsenic. ”

"Arsenic?!" Li Shimin's brows furrowed, he knew that these imperial doctors would not joke with the queen's life, they didn't dare, and they didn't have the guts. But this arsenic is a great poison, how can it be used to heal people? In case there's a slip-up...

"No way!" Li Chengqian jumped out of bed and reacted violently. He yelled at Wang Zikui and the imperial doctor: "Imperial Doctor Wang! Arsenic? You can figure it out! Do you want to poison the queen mother?! ”

The prince's words made all the imperial doctors kneel on the ground together, and they all prostrated themselves and said, "The ministers don't dare!" ”

For the imperial doctors, this prescription is also too risky, if it is put on ordinary people, it is just fine, but now it is the queen who is medicating, the mother of a country, how can it not be treated carelessly? But then again, if it's not really a bitter thing, how can they be in this risk? No one wants to gamble with their own heads.

Li Shimin doesn't know medicine, but he understands people. After so many years of commanding the army and governing the country, he is still very proficient in the way of controlling people.

So when Li Chengqian yelled at the imperial doctors, he didn't stop it. Give these doctors some pressure appropriately, and they will be more attentive.

After a while, seeing that the imperial doctors were almost frightened, Li Shimin opened his mouth and said to Li Chengqian: "Prince, the imperial doctors will never murder the queen, don't talk nonsense, and step aside!" ”

"Yes, Father." Li Chengqian bowed his head in response, not daring to refute, and glared at the imperial doctors again before returning to the side of Empress Changsun.

"Let's all get up." Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "The prince is also too worried about the queen, and it is inevitable that he will not be a little inconsiderate when he speaks, so don't take it to heart." ”

"Don't dare!" The group of people who had just gotten up fell to their knees again, the crown prince was the future emperor, they just had the heart, and they didn't have the courage.

"Okay, Wang Zikui, you are the Imperial Doctor, you come to tell me, how do you plan to heal the Queen? How sure are you? Li Shimin was anxious about the queen's illness, so he really asked by name.

Wang Zikui glanced at several colleagues around him, bent over and replied to Li Shimin: "Back to the emperor, the ministers are going to use ephedra, cinnamon branches, banxia, fine spice, dried ginger, schisandra, almonds, white front, licorice, and a little arsenic, and boil them with a simmer, fry three bowls in five bowls, and give them to the queen mother in batches." This medicine can nourish yin and aphrodisiac, attack and treat cold and evil qi, and achieve the effect of warming the lungs and dissipating cold, dissolving phlegm, relieving cough and asthma. However," Wang Zikui glanced at Li Shimin cautiously and said, "Whether this fierce medicine can work or not, the ministers are only thirty percent sure." ”

"Sancheng?!" Li Shimin's heart twitched violently, the imperial doctors dared to use such a huge poison as arsenic, and they were only thirty percent sure? Li Shimin looked at the eldest grandson who had been unconscious on the bed, and waved his hand to the imperial doctors unbearably, and said, "According to what Wang Aiqing said, you guys, go and prepare..."

Thirty percent is better than one percent at all.

"Slow!" Li Chengqian stood up again and stopped the imperial doctors who were about to quit.

As soon as the back of Yanagi's head touched the pillow, he was quarreled with by Yanagi Erjo again.

This time, Yanagi Nijo was carrying a lantern in his hand.

The yellow undershirt, the bright red shawl, the bright head, and the fat smiling face. Han is too cute and has a kind smile.

"Maitreya Buddha?" Seeing this strangely shaped lantern, Yanagichi casually called out, how similar this lantern was to the Maitreya Buddha statue in the previous life. It's just that there is already Maitreya Buddha at this time?

"Hehe, I didn't expect that Brother Liu is also a believer in Buddhism, and he can say the honorific name of this Buddha in one mouth." An old but neutral voice rang out outside the door. Then an old man in a linen shirt came from outside the door and praised with a smile: "This Buddha is painted by a monk in the Western Regions, and it has not been circulated in Middle-earth. ”

Seeing that there were still guests coming, Liu Yiyi secretly glanced at Liu Erjo, why is this kid so eyeless, and someone comes without warning in advance? Hurriedly put on his clothes, turned over and got out of bed, and saluted the old man: "This old man is invited, I don't know what to call it?" ”

"Brother Liu is polite, I came to visit late at night, and I disturbed Brother Liu's good dreams, I hope you will forgive me!" The old man also saluted: "The old man and grandson Wenda." ”

Liu Ertiao also interjected on the side: "Big brother, Uncle Gongsun is the old man who sold my lanterns." He has come to see you. ”

"Gongsun Wenda? The younger brother of Gongsun Wuda, a famous landowner in Sanyuan County? Liu Yiyi, who was still secretly blaming the old man who knocked on the door in the middle of the night, suddenly became energetic. Hurriedly bent over and saluted: "It turned out to be Wen Dagong's visit, it's really a blessing, Wen Dagong, please take a seat." ”

The old man was not polite, he found a chair in the room at random and sat down, and said to Liu Yiyi with a smile: "Little Brother Liu doesn't need to be polite, I am an old acquaintance with Brother Bofang, maybe this old man in Yang Mansion is more familiar than you!" Don't be polite to the old man. If Brother Liu doesn't dislike it, just call the old man an old man. ”

In this way, one hairpin crossed. Uncle Gongsun! Seeing that the old man was so happy, Liu Yiyi walked up the pole for a while, bringing the relationship between the two closer.

"Okay, good, good, one virtuous nephew, and two virtuous nephews, come and sit together." Gongsun Wenda greeted him with enthusiasm. It's like he's the owner of the house.

After the two brothers sat down, the old man took out a scroll of calligraphy and paintings from his arms and carefully spread it out on the table next to the chair.

Liu Yiyi saw that it was the one he had written for Liu Erjo before.

Gongsun Wenda pointed to the words on the calligraphy and painting and asked Liu Yiyi: "A virtuous nephew, this couplet is from your handwriting?" ”

Liu Yiyi said modestly: "No, it was written by the little nephew, the text is simple and ugly, which makes Uncle Gongsun laugh." ”

Gongsun Wenda waved his hand and said: "A virtuous nephew is too modest, let's not say whether the next link you are subtle or not, as far as the font you write is not ordinary, it is very much like a kind of Liu's calligraphy that is very popular in Beijing now." ”
