Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Imperial Doctor

Recently, Tang Xu has become the guest of the Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, not because Tang Xu broke the Khitan army and made great contributions, but because he wanted to listen to Tang Xu's story. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Tang Xu can go home now except for sleeping, and he is left in the palace by Shi Chonggui almost every day. Tang Xu doesn't have to worry about having no stories to tell, he has watched so many movies and TV series since he was a child, even if he doesn't recite the whole text, it won't be difficult for him to just talk nonsense. It's just that after a long time, Tang Xu feels more and more that this emperor really doesn't look like an emperor, and he spends more time with Tang Xu than he spends discussing state affairs with ministers, so can he still manage the country well?

"Tang Gongzi, what story do you want to tell the widow today?" Shi Chonggui announced Tang Xu into the palace early that day.

Tang Xu was very depressed, even if he opened a pit to write a novel, he allowed the author to ask for leave if he had something to do, this emperor urged him every day, which was really unbearable. Tang Xu just wanted to find a topic to interrupt, and suddenly a eunuch came in and said that there was something important to report. Shi Chonggui was bored and was about to drive away, but the eunuch said that he was from the queen's palace, so he called in.

"What's the matter with finding a widow?" Shi Chonggui absentmindedly asked the palace maid kneeling below.

"Your Majesty, the queen mother occasionally felt a cold yesterday and was slightly ill." Before the palace maid finished speaking, Shi Chonggui hurriedly came down from the throne, and after careful inquiry, he was going to visit the queen. Tang Xu thought that this emperor was still affectionate and righteous, and he was glad that he could probably get out early today.

"I heard that Tang Gongzi is a doctor with excellent medical skills?" Unexpectedly, Shi Chonggui had no intention of letting Tang Xu leave.

"Gao Ming doesn't dare to be, but the villain can treat some diseases for others." Tang Xu replied.

"Then, Tang Gongzi went to visit the queen with the widow, and also treated the queen." Shi Chonggui said, the surrounding eunuchs and palace maids all had different colors, thinking to himself, how could the emperor casually find a Jianghu Langzhong to treat the queen?

"Your Majesty, the villain is not good at learning, and he will never dare to diagnose the queen." Tang Xu trembled with fright, that is the queen, in case there is a mistake, his little life will be gone.

"Tang Gongzi is too modest, but the widow can hear that Tang Gongzi is diagnosing the people and soldiers in Yangcheng, and he is rejuvenated, and everyone praises Tang Gongzi's medical skills." Shi Chonggui said.

"Your Majesty, the queen has a golden body, and the slave thinks it is more appropriate to let Imperial Doctor Xuan come." On weekdays, a more favored eunuch also came to persuade the emperor.

"The widow doesn't like those old guys, and the widow can trust Tang Gongzi." Shi Chonggui waved his hand.

Tang Xu didn't dare not agree anymore when he saw him so insistent, and immediately followed Shi Chonggui to the queen's bedroom. When he arrived at the place, before the eunuch could pass the word, Shi Chonggui, who was anxious, pushed the door in by himself. Tang Xu was waiting outside the door, under great pressure. After a while, Shi Chonggui sent someone to call him, Tang Xu entered the house and saw that a beautiful woman was leaning on the side of the bed, and Shi Chonggui was accompanying her.

"Tang Gongzi, come and see how the queen's condition is for the widow?" Shi Chonggui greeted Tang Xu. After Tang Xu gave a big gift to the emperor and empress, he stepped forward, cut his pulse and asked for a diagnosis, and found that it was not a serious illness, but a cold, and he was relieved.

"Your Majesty, the queen mother is fine, she does feel the wind cold, and the villain prescribes a prescription for the queen mother to ward off the cold, and it will get better in a few days." Tang Xu returned to the emperor. Shi Chonggui nodded with satisfaction, asked him to prescribe a prescription, and continued to accompany the queen himself. Tang Xu thought it would be fine after prescribing the medicine, but he didn't expect Shi Chonggui to come to him again.

"Queen, recently the widow listened to Tang Gongzi's story and was fascinated, you can also listen to it to relieve your boredom." Shi Chonggui said to the queen, and the queen naturally nodded and said yes. Tang Xu was speechless, could it be that he would tell stories to the emperor's family full-time in the future?

But speechless to speechless, the emperor ordered, Tang Xu could only rack his brains to tell the story, Shi Chonggui also listened to it, and interjected a few sentences from time to time, the queen made a coquettish gesture and asked him not to interrupt Tang Xu, and Shi Chonggui shut up. Tang Xu wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, this emperor is still a strict wife, which is really rare.

When Tang Xu finished the story, it was not early, I don't know if Tang Xu's prescription worked or if she was in a better mood after listening to the story, the queen was able to get out of bed and walk around, and also served the emperor for dinner. Shi Chonggui Longyan Dayue, immediately rewarded Tang Xu with countless treasures and treasures, and also named him a doctor, the chief imperial doctor.

Tang Xu was almost scared to death when he received the holy decree, it was really so easy to become an official after he had a good relationship with the emperor, but he was just the chief of the imperial doctor, this responsibility was too heavy, and Tang Xu did not live here for a long time, so it was only more difficult to get out. But now he has to refuse, he is afraid that he will immediately become a prisoner from the emperor's throne, Tang Xu is so annoyed that he has to kneel down and thank the lord Longen on his face.

The next day, Tang Xu went to the palace imperial hospital to join the company, and before he stepped through the door, he heard someone inside talking about him, saying that he was just a courtier, and the milky little boy made the emperor reward the official position with his small skills in carving insects. There was a lot of dissatisfaction and indignation in the discussion, Tang Xu smiled bitterly, who did he recruit and provoke whom?

Tang Xu cleared his throat at the door, and the door immediately quieted down, and when Tang Xu walked into the room, all the imperial doctors in the house were waiting respectfully, as if they were not the ones who were gossiping just now. Tang Xu didn't want to care, he greeted them with a smile, and the imperial doctors also echoed with smiling faces, and the atmosphere was pleasant and harmonious for a while.

There is not much work in the imperial medical hall, at least Tang Xu doesn't have much work, the following ten or twenty imperial doctors have almost done most of the things, and there are some apprentices who specialize in treating palace maids and eunuchs. Tang Xu came to work every day, and was still called by the emperor to tell stories from time to time, but it seemed that the queen's mother meant that the chief and the imperial doctor should have the appearance of a general leader, so as not to gossip about others, and thanks to the queen's few words, Tang Xu didn't think about what stories to tell all day long like before.

When Tang Xu sat in the position of the doctor of the imperial hospital, the caravan that followed him to Kaifeng also settled down, these people have great ability, and they started to make a living at the foot of the Son of Heaven within a few days of buying a house, probably someone has already found a way to inform the general thousands of miles away, Tang Xu found a carrier pigeon in the yard when he returned home one day. How did the carrier pigeon find here? Perhaps there were not only merchants and guards in the caravan, but also communication specialists. Li Yu praised Tang Xu for winning the emperor's trust so quickly, and asked him to seize the opportunity to listen to more important secrets. Tang Xu was very helpless about this, and he didn't want to do anything for Li Yu, but he thought that Wang Dali, Lan Jun and Xu Shijie, who were still in Lanzhou City, couldn't really play with Li Yu and lost contact, so he put pen to paper and pretended to promise a few words and released the carrier pigeon. I hope it won't be discovered, Tang Xu prayed in his heart.

Thinking of his best friends in Lanzhou City, Tang Xu was particularly disgusted with the big and small officials and concubines who had broken through the threshold now just to let themselves say a few nice words in front of the emperor. However, Li Shouzhen, Tang Xu's sworn brother, seems to be a lot more peaceful, only occasionally brings some good wine to chat with Tang Xu, talking about the days when he led the troops to fight, Tang Xu felt a lot happier with Li Shouzhen, and sometimes let him live in his own house when the chat was late.

After being in the palace for a long time, Tang Xu also heard some gossip, such as the queen's mother was the emperor's uncle, Shi Chonggui's original partner died early, and Empress Feng was also widowed in her early years. Shi Chonggui liked this uncle when he didn't succeed to the throne, but he didn't dare to show it because of his low status, and when he became the emperor, he married his uncle and was canonized as the queen. However, after becoming a king and defeating a king, now these Chen sesame seeds and rotten grains will not cause any damage to His Majesty the Emperor.

There are naturally countless dark and filthy royal beings, and Tang Xu doesn't have so much curiosity to find out, the more he listens, the more dangerous it becomes. He still prefers to see people. It's just that His Majesty the Emperor and the Empress are in good health, so he doesn't need to think about it, so Tang Xu shifted his attention to the eunuchs and maids in the palace. Although the eunuchs and palace maids are sick and have the apprentices of the Imperial Medical Hall to help diagnose and treat them, but if they are really seriously ill, who wants to spend much energy to take care of them? Therefore, Tang Xu was determined not to let this happen again when he saw the seriously ill palace maid wrapped in a broken straw mat and sent out of the palace.

On this day, Tang Xu went to visit a palace maid with a medicine box and some food, but it was not a serious illness, but a weak body due to malnutrition. But her master is a troublemaker, and she has long been ostracized, so the person who affected her was bedridden and no one took care of her for days, Tang Xu found her in a remote room, if it was delayed for a few days, I was afraid that she would die.

"Emily." Tang Xu entered the house, the palace maid Xiaocui still fell asleep with her eyes closed, and after a few days of Tang Xu's recuperation, Xiaocui's face was already a lot ruddy.

"Doctor Tang, you're here." Xiaocui wanted to get up to greet her, but Tang Xu was busy asking her not to be polite, just lie down and talk.

Tang Xu first boiled water to fill the teapot on the table, and then took out snacks to satisfy her hunger. Taking advantage of Xiaocui's time to eat, Tang Xu went to set up a small stove outside the house to decoct her medicine. It is said that the palace is strictly disciplined, but the huge palace is not full of people, Tang Xu has heard of eunuchs who were locked up in a remote room until they died, hey. And here is overgrown with weeds, the flowers and trees planted in the early years have been messy, I think no one has been here for a long time, Xiaocui said that the last time someone came over was the day he was thrown here. Tang Xu guarded the medicine stove, thinking wildly, and didn't even notice that Xiao Cui came out of the house, until she put a coat on Tang Xu.

"Thank you, go back and rest, it's windy outside." Tang Xu urged while fanning the medicine furnace. Xiao Cui smiled faintly, but found a small stool to sit with Tang Xu, saying that she thought the medicine smelled good.

"Medicine is bitter, how can it smell good." Tang Xu said, but he stared at the medicine stove intently, and didn't notice that Xiao Cui's face was a little red although he didn't answer, so the two stayed together quietly in the furnace.
