PS: The 5,000-word chapter is one top two, and there will be two more tomorrow

Mid-spring February, Qi country, the platform of the road.

Qi Hou sat upright on the high platform, he was dressed in a thick dark coat and a small copper stove to warm his hands. Since the march in the snow and ice more than a month ago, the pestle has developed a problem of being afraid of the cold, and even in this sunny spring day, he still feels cold.

The neighing black horse, the sweeping banner of the Zhao family's Xuanniao, and, the young general holding a piercing spear and shouting his name......

Every time he thought of this, he shuddered, fortunately, the emperor ploughed the horses to the death, fortunately Chen's son came in time, otherwise he was afraid that he would be like his son Yangsheng, and he would have become a prisoner of the Zhao family, and he would be escorted to Xintian Qiqi Palace to suffer humiliation!

In that battle, Zhao Wuxian's roar almost scared the soul of the pestle, and after he ran back to Qi without his life, he counted the number of people and learned that thousands of people were killed and wounded in this battle, and five thousand people were captured by the Zhao family. In addition to the martyrs in the strong attack on Yiyi, as well as those who died in the march, a total of more than 10,000 people, accounting for a quarter of the levy army, more than 10,000 families of Qi people lost their relatives and friends, and white and black flags were all over the five capitals.

What a defeat! What an unprecedented defeat!

What ancestor Shu Yan Emperor, the hegemony of Fu Taigong and Huan Gong, what the shame of washing the saddle and Pingyin, has become an empty one.

Compared to Gu Panzixiong when he first broke through Yiyi, Qi Hou only felt that he was ridiculous now. He returned to Linzi in despair, and every day he only knew that Linxing's newly received favorite concubine was drinking, cockfighting, and playing Shuanglu with his minister Liang Qiu. All government and military affairs were handed over to Guoxia, Gao Zhang, Chen Qi, and Bao Mu.

For two whole months, Qi Hou was in this state of self-abandonment, and it was not until not long ago that he came to his senses.

Outside the palace, there is good news and bad news.

The good news is that because the Chan clan is well defended in the west. Guoxia also repelled the Lu army under the command of Yangguanzi Road, so the Zhao clan and the Lu state did not continue to attack. On the Jin side, because of the sudden attack by Xianyu, the Qin State watched the army, and the Zheng people were contained, and Dai Rong also took advantage of the fire to rob after the multiple crises. The Jin also gave up their attempt to recapture Yiyi. The six Qings are busy with their own affairs, and now although the countries have not yet ceased war, there is no war between Heji.

Except for the shame of his unpromising son Yangsheng being captured by Zhao Wuxian, and being brought back to the Jin Kingdom by Zhao Ying to show off, the situation doesn't seem to be as bad as he imagined!

Qi Hou immediately kicked Liang Qiu aside and regained his strength. He felt that this battle of the snow field was not a fiasco like Saddle and Pingyin, it was just an accident in the battle of the long spoon, as long as there were a few more years to recuperate. Admonish the people of the country, he can make a comeback like Gong Huan!

But the bad news in the country is one after another, typhoid fever epidemic in Pingyin and other places for two months, nearly 10,000 people died, and then thousands of people died of spring fever complicated by fever, the dead looked at each other, starving all over the wilderness.

That's not all, what makes Qi Hou especially angry. Xilu, the source of the epidemic only separated by a national border, has paid less than a thousand deaths. It completely kills the disease!

The cause of all this is an emerging organization "Lingque", they are a doctor's guild founded by the Zhao family with the support of the Zhao family, headed by the doctor Bian Que, with the Lingque flag of the red bird on a white background, so it is also commonly known as the "Red Bird Society". Their slogan is "Compassion for the Disaster." Prepare to save the murderer", the doctor Bian Que and his disciples called on doctors from all over the world who could save the dead and help the wounded, and traveled together to spread the art of epidemic prevention and treat the war wounded and the people suffering from the epidemic in various towns.

After entering February. The epidemic situation in Qi has finally eased, but Qi Hou is even more angry, because the person who caused this situation is actually a member of the "Lingque", some people say that he is a disciple of Yibian Que, and some people directly say that he is Yibian Que himself!

It is said that the red Lingque logo was painted on the outside of the walls of every Qi household in need of treatment, and the disease doctor came across the border with three or five people to extend medical treatment. If it weren't for the fact that they had to go to the place where the Pingyin Doctor was to ask for help because the Zhao clan did not provide medicine to treat the Qi people, the Qi State would still know nothing about it!

You must know that the folk in the western part of Qi have already spread: "The king is not as much as Lingque loves me!" ”

Qi Hou is indeed a little weak-hearted, when Lingque's people were saving the dead and helping the wounded in Qi Realm, he was still drinking and having fun in the palace, wanting to forget about his failure!

Thinking of the Zhao father and son behind the Lingque, Qi Hou felt a little numb, from beginning to end, this must be the conspiracy of the Zhao family, wanting to send doctors across the border to disintegrate the Yi rule of the Qi State, so that the people's hearts will turn away from him!

This is not the first time, Zhao Wuxian had previously sent people to Donglai in the name of businessmen to incite the Lai people to rebel, with the first time, there can be a second time!

So Qi Hou asked Doctor Pingyin to escort the mysterious doctor to Linzi, and he wanted to interrogate and interrogate him personally!

……

"You're the doctor Bian Que?"

On the high platform, Qi Hou carried the copper furnace, staring critically at the person who was escorted by the Tiger Ben warrior, he was only in his thirties, dressed in plain clothes, although his hands were thick, but his face was compassionate. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like the legendary Bian Que, who is over 100 years old and has a childish face, probably something is wrong.

Sure enough, His Royal Highness said: "I have seen the Marquis of Qi, and the foreign minister is not Bian Que, but Ziyang, a disciple of the family teacher." ”

Regardless of whether he is Bian Que or not, he is a Lingque person anyway, and he is a person funded and supported by the Zhao family, that is the enemy!

Qi Hou snorted coldly: "You took people from Xuju to cross the border, ran to Qi to incite the people, and the party gathered in the township community, what is the conspiracy?" “

"I came to Qi to treat the sick, and I gathered in the village community to promote the law of epidemic prevention, and there was no conspiracy."

"Dare to quibble! You and Ru Shi were originally Zhao's disease doctors, and they also saved Zhao Ying's wind disease the year before last, and they have a deep relationship with Zhao's father and son, if Zhao Wuxian didn't send you, who else could there be!? ”

Qi Hou took a few shots, but he couldn't scare Ziyang, he said: "This matter has nothing to do with Zhao Xiao Sikou, or rather, Zhao Xiao Sikou does not support Lingque to enter the Qi realm, it was the family teacher who sent me." ”

"Yi Bian Que sent you?"

Qi Hou's eyes lit up, it is said that this generation of doctors Bian Que was originally a small official on the seashore of Qi State, and he met a famous teacher by chance, so he became a famous doctor. He was not well known in the Qi Kingdom, and he became famous only after he began to travel around the world to practice medicine. Although Qi Hou had heard of his name before, he was only regarded as a doctor with better skills. As soon as typhoid fever came, there were bian queers and no bian queers, and the difference was so big!

Judging from Ziyang's words, the so-called "spirit magpie" of feelings is not completely Zhao's horse-headed look? And there is a faint tendency to disagree?

He immediately changed his face and said with a smile: "Good, great good!" Yi Bian Que does not forget the old country. If he is willing to sever relations with the Zhao family and return to the Qi country, he is willing to make him the head of the palace doctor, give him a thousand households, and hereditary food for his children and grandchildren! ”

If you are an ordinary person, you should immediately kneel down and thank you, but His Royal Highness Ziyang just smiled faintly: "I'm afraid that the Marquis of Qi is thinking badly, and the family teacher asked me to come to Qi Country." It's not because he misses the old country, but because there are sick people in need of help in the Qi country. ”

Qi Hou was puzzled, this was out of his common sense: "What does this mean?" ”

"What the foreign minister means, healer, knows no borders!"

……

Ziyang explained: "In Lingque, there is only the relationship between the doctor and the patient, and the rest of the worldly high and low have to be relegated. In our eyes, there is no distinction between healers and doctors. There is no distinction between countries. In the words of Confucius of Lu State, that is, all brothers in the four seas. If your brother is sick, as long as you don't violate the 'six incurables' criterion, the doctor must try his best to save him! ”

In fact, Ziyang thinks that it is more appropriate to describe it with a sentence that Zhao Xiaojun inadvertently confided, that is, the value of a doctor is "love".

But he also understands Zhao Wuxian's difficulties, and Zhao's support for the establishment of Lingque is originally a self-contradiction. Not giving Lingque the right to free diagnosis and treatment is tantamount to breaking its promise. Allowing Lingque to treat Qi people is equivalent to being an enemy, so after Lingque ended his treatment in Suju, Zhao Wuxian had already declared. It is not advisable to cross the border to help the Qi people, the reason is that for the sake of their safety, the Qi Hou is jealous of his ability, and he is afraid that he will harm Bian Que and his disciples who have helped Xilu.

"Having said that, Lingque is not a retainer of the Zhao family, and he can't become a tool of any princes and doctors, that's not the original intention of the old man." At that time, the doctor Bian Que recruited Ziyang and taught him Dundun.

"Although the gentleman of the Zhao family advocates the establishment of this guild and calls it a doctor, but the doctor's heart is benevolent, I can't sit back and watch the Qi people who are miles away get sick and die, and I can save but not save, it is to help the epidemic and kill people! If you go to Qi State, as a teacher, you will stay in Xilu with Ziyue and establish a Lingque headquarters, whether Zhao Xiaojunzi blames him or not, I am willing to bear it one by one. But the doctor has no borders, and the patients have no borders, whether it is the Qi people, the Jin people or the Wu people, they are dying, and they must be treated without hesitation, which is what we should abide by. ”

Therefore, Yi Bian Que let Ziyang come to the Qi country, which was the first attempt to cross the border after the establishment of Lingque.

From this moment on, they became a real "international organization".

But this concept is not understood by Qi Hou at all.

Therefore, he could only believe that "Lingque" would one day turn against the Zhao family, and Bian Que sent his eldest disciple to Qi in advance in order to leave a way back.

He said proudly with a gesture of gift: "Since you have come to the Qi country, then don't leave, stay in the widow's palace to be a doctor, and give you an official title, food fields, and even mining estate!" ”

Ziyang bowed slightly: "Thank you to the Marquis of Qi, the foreign ministers will stay in the Qi country, but I can't accept the reward and official position of the Marquis of Qi." ”

"Bold! Within the territory of the Qi Kingdom, no one dares to refuse the widow! ”

Qi Hou said this, but he remembered two exceptions in his heart: Kong Qiu, who had refused Yuncheng's food fields, and Yan Ying, who had refused the beautiful concubine house given by Qi Hou, and would rather live with his old wife in an old house near the city.

Ziyang explained: "Qi Hou doesn't know that those who enter the spirit magpie are divided into three categories: in the hometown, in the hall, and in the room. The incumbent is engaged in ambulance and miscellaneous labor; Those who enter the hall can study medical books such as "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases"; Those who enter the room are the disciples of the family teacher. ”

Qi Hou was a little stunned, isn't this Kong Qiu's set, how could it be used by Lingque.

"Whoever enters the palace must have an oath: We have no distinction of nations, nor are we subordinate to any princes or ministers, and we shall not seek any position during the period of Lingque, and any money, silk, and food given by the monarch shall be handed over to Bian Que, and shall be regarded as the common property of Lingque. Therefore, Qi Hou's good luck minister can never accept it, if Qi Hou wants to donate, the minister is grateful, and please send someone to contact the family teacher. ”

Let me send money and land to Zhao Wuxian's territory? Qi Hou was really speechless this time: "In this case, what else can you do if you stay in Qi Country?" ”

"Lingque has seven rules: humanity, justice, neutrality, independence, voluntariness, unity and universality. Our generation is committed to establishing medical centers in other countries, and recruiting doctors from that country to volunteer to join, treating patients and epidemics in the capital when there is no war, and treating the wounded and wounded in a neutral capacity when there is war. It's not just the Qi country. In the next few years, the family teacher will also send his disciples to Qufu, Taoqiu, Shangqiu, Xintian, Yu, Xinzheng and other places to establish branches of Lingque. ”

Qi Hou was stunned, is this to rely purely on the strength of the Lingque family to realize the call of "sympathizing with disasters and dangers, preparing for the rescue" that originally belonged to the responsibility of the Son of Heaven and the overlord? How is this possible, it's so funny.

But if this is implemented, it seems that there is no harm in aligning the country. But he still has to think about it. Qi Hou felt that he had nothing to say today, so he waved his hand, wanting to let Ziyang take him down.

But Ziyang didn't leave, he stared at Qi Hou for a long time, and then said: "You have a disease in your stomach, and if you don't treat it, you will be afraid." ”

Qi Hou knew that he was sick, and he had been frightened and cold before, and he had indulged in indulgence in the past two months. I was depressed, but the diagnosis and treatment of the palace doctor had no effect. Now in front of Ziyang, who made him unable to figure it out, he snorted angrily and said, "Aren't you unwilling to be the medical officer of the Qi Palace? Why, now you want to treat the widow again? The widow is not sick! You healers, just cure the disease and do it as a success! ”

Ziyang, who was good at diagnosing the pulse and asking questions, sighed: "The reason why the foreign minister said this is because I am a Lingque healer, and in my eyes, the Marquis of Qi is no different from the sick common people of Pingyin Xilu. It's all patients who need to be treated......"

In your eyes, the widow is just one. Ordinary, patient?

Qi Hou was shocked and furious.

He slammed the copper furnace in his hand down, and although it didn't hit, it also knocked the stone floor of the high platform into a spark!

The palace maids and guards who were waiting beside them bowed down one after another. His face was pale, but the plain-robed doctor remained unmoved.

Qi Hou pointed at Ziyang heavily: "Do you know that the princes are angry and bleed!" ”

On the ground, the bloodstains of Yan Ying Ertao's killing of the two soldiers are still there, which is strange to say. More than two years have passed, no matter what method is used, it can't wash away the blood of the two warriors, and the red piece is so dazzling at the moment.

It is the same color as Qi Hou's flushed face and the dying sunset.

Ziyang was also looking down at the circle of blood.

He finally raised his eyes and looked directly at Qi Hou and said, "What Zhao Xiaosikou and his family master want to stop is probably this kind of bloody anger of the princes......

……

Originally, Qi Hou did not plan to agree to the establishment of the Lingque Branch, and first put this person under house arrest for a few months. But Ziyang's last words succeeded in angering Qi Hou, and he was taken down, and his treatment changed from house arrest to imprisonment - the same prison where Yang Hu was previously held.

As for Lingque's establishment of a branch in the Qi Kingdom, there is no need to mention it again!

Ziyang was kicked heavily into the prison by the Qi State Guards, and he lay on the straw laid on the floor, smelling the feces and urine of the former occupants here.

There were no windows, no light, and he was no different from a blind man, relying only on his sense of touch. There was no bed here, not even a urine bucket, and the walls were stone, and it was cold to the touch, as cold and hard as Fang Cai Qi Hou's rejection of Lingque.

"Master, I probably said the wrong thing."

He closed his eyes, feeling the coldness and loneliness of the place.

Although he was ready for cold reception and persecution when he stepped into the Qi realm, now, Ziyang finally understands that there is a difference between the lord and the lord. The tolerance of the gentlemen of the Zhao family, as well as the ideals that funded them to create Lingque, the heart of benevolence and love, the prince of the Qi State, who is high up and does not know the hardships and well-being of the people, will never understand.

Ziyang muttered to himself, "Master, is it true that healers have no borders? If possible, I would rather stay in Xilu and be the Zhao family's family doctor......"

……

Qi Hou rubbed his temples in annoyance, today's conversation made him a little painful, Ziyang, as well as Yi Bian Que, and even Zhao Wuxian behind Lingque, their actions made all Qi Hou who was selfish and self-interested couldn't figure it out.

It wasn't until the arrival of his new favorite minister, Chen Heng, that he was persuaded to dismantle.

Chen Heng made a great contribution to the rescue in the battle of the snow field, and now he is trusted and promoted to the middle doctor, which can be described as a young man's ambition.

He said contemptuously: "In the eyes of his subordinates, this is just Zhao Wuxian lifting a stone to shoot himself in the foot, he obviously has the doctor Bian Que and his disciples around him to be a family doctor, as long as the means are appropriate, soft and hard, they have no intention of betraying." But he did this more, in order to win the name of benevolence, to establish this self-benefiting and beneficial spirit magpie, and when the red bird flew all over the world, in the end he would make wedding dresses for other countries! ”

That's right, in Chen Heng's view, politicians can't wait for the people of neighboring countries to die, and their own people to increase. How can he be like Zhao Wuxian, as if he regards the entire people of the world as his future people, it is really ridiculous, he can become a Song Xianggong at most in the end, and die as the world's laugher!

From his grandfather Chen Wuyu, to his father Chen Qi, and then to Chen Heng himself, the mind of stealing the country is like a worm crawling out of the soft soil in mid-spring, and it can no longer be dormant.

Xueyuan's rescue was Chen Heng's proud move, allowing Chen to get the final victory at the lowest cost. Now that Yi Yi is governed by Gao Tang, he is also highly trusted, and in one fell swoop he reversed the suppression of the Chen family by the state and Gao when Yan Ying was alive.

And now, he is about to deal a heavy blow to Zhao Wuxian, a hypocrite!

He will teach that peer well that only despicable conspiracies and ruthless means can fulfill the dream of stealing the country!

Under power, how can you not be in vain?

"Your Majesty, the matter of prohibiting the transportation of sea salt to Xilu and Taoqiu has been arranged by the ministers. From this month onwards, there will not be a single grain of sea salt from Qi to Xilu and Taoqiu, and in a few months, Cao Guo will be able to surrender without a fight, so that the people under Zhao Wuxian's rule will have no salt, and finally everyone will rebel and leave! (To be continued.) )
