Chapter 4 Shen Linfeng
The capital was shrouded in a mist in the early morning, and it was already about to enter winter, and he didn't know how the displaced people in Nanze would survive this winter, Li Yan thought to himself. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the summer of this year, a plague broke out in Nanze, and countless victims poured into Guanzhong.
The imperial court's disaster relief money has been allocated, but the cold winter is coming soon, and the victims who have not yet been resettled will be difficult this winter.
Li Yan took out the wooden gourd used when he traveled to the doctor.
The practitioner talks about a hanging pot to help the world, and this pot refers to the gourd.
This gourd was left by Li Yan's master Lu Ting, Lu Ting likes to drink, especially Nanze's steamed Jiang Xian, so this gourd is different from other pharmacies that are full of medicinal herbs, this gourd was originally filled with wine by Lu Ting.
Li Yan hung the gourd in front of the pharmacy.
Soon a patient came to the door.
In the middle of the capital, Li Yan didn't know the prescription.
Therefore, most of the people who come to buy medicine on weekdays are poor people in the capital who cannot afford to see a doctor.
came and went, and Li Yan was also familiar with them.
But today is different.
In the morning, Li Yan saw three or five faces.
I have some doubts in my heart, could it be that the Chang family made the news of the eight hundred taels bought?
Li Yan shook his head, the Chang family is not a family of goodness, and the news of taking a walk is not beneficial to the Chang family.
Just when Li Yan was puzzled, a hurried shout came from outside the door: "Get out, don't get in the way, get out of the way!" ”
Li Yan raised his head, and a dark-skinned man staggered over.
The man was burly, and his clothes were covered in blood.
This man Li Yan recognized that it was Niu Er, the ruffian who took revenge on the Lu family's pharmacy back then.
Niu Er is a well-known ruffian in the capital, he learned boxing and kicking for two years when he was a teenager, although he is not as good as the masters on the rivers and lakes, but it is enough to bully people on weekdays.
The people who were originally in the pharmacy immediately dispersed as soon as they saw that it was Niu Er.
Although Niu Er's wheezing voice was heavy, the blood stains on his body were not his.
On Niu Er's back, there was a thin young man lying on his stomach, his face was pale, his eyes were closed, he had fainted, his legs were hanging weakly, and his fingers were covered with blood, it seemed that he had been tortured.
After Niu Er made trouble with the Lu family pharmacy back then, he once threatened that no matter how cheap the medicine in the Lu family pharmacy was, he Niu Er would not come again.
Niu Er is a good talker, and Li Yan has only seen him in the restaurant in the past three years.
This is the first time Niu has entered the Lu family pharmacy in two or three years.
"Doctor Li, please, please save my brother."
Li Yan, the young man behind Niu Er, knows.
The son of Dr. Shen of the Beijing Wanxing Pharmacy, Shen Heng.
Li Yan frowned, the news in the restaurant was the most well-informed.
A little ruffian like Niu Er is also the most talked about by everyone.
Li Yan remembered a passage he overheard in the restaurant:
"What do you say is good about a ruffian like Niu Er? The fist and foot kung fu is average, but there are many little ruffians who are willing to follow him. ”
"Not really! Dr. Shen Linfeng of Wanxing Pharmacy was old and had children, but he didn't expect his son to mix with Niu Er all day long, and take big and small ruffians to Wanxing Pharmacy to get medicine all day long, and Doctor Shen was about to be angry with him. ”
......
Li Yan put Shen Heng on the bed and stopped the bleeding for him.
Niu Er kept thanking Li Yan.
Li Yan shook his head and said, "Niu Er, why did you bring Doctor Shen's son-in-law to me?" ”
Niu Er's swarthy face was a little red, and he immediately arched his hand and said: "Niu Er has offended a lot before, please forgive Dr. Li!" ”
Niu Er was obviously mistaken, and Li Yan shook his head again: "Doctor Shen's son, how can you come to Li to get medicine?" Li is fine, but he is afraid that Dr. Shen's reputation will be damaged. ”
Niu Er breathed a sigh of relief, and a burst of admiration rose in his heart, although three years had passed since the incident, the scene of his troubles in the Lu family's pharmacy three years ago was still vivid.
Niu Er didn't expect Li Yan to care about it at all, and suddenly felt even more guilty: "Niu Er really doesn't know, but when he passed by Changfu today, he saw Shen Heng fall to the ground, and when he went to Wanxing Pharmacy, he saw that the pharmacy was closed." ”
After Niu Er finished speaking, he found that Li Yan was still looking at him, as if waiting for him to continue.
Niu Er hesitated for a while and said, "Not only Wanxing Pharmacy, but also several pharmacy stores I went to are closed......
Yes, if it's just Wanxing Pharmacy closing, Niu Er will definitely go to other pharmacies, and he won't come to Li Yan anyway.
Li Yan remembered that the business of the pharmacy was exceptionally good today, and it turned out that many pharmacy stores in the capital were closed.
However, things are too strange, and Li Yan feels that this matter should be related to the Chang family.
Li Yan took care of Shen Heng's wounds and left Niu Er with Shen Heng on his back.
It was already dark, and Li Yan closed the door of the pharmacy under Niu Er's grateful gaze.
Although this Niu Er is extorting money on weekdays, he is not an extremely evil person.
In the Cheng family pharmacy in the south of the city, Cheng Xuanwen was busy working alone.
Li Yan waited on the side, and Cheng Xuanwen ignored it at all.
It wasn't until Cheng Xuanwen put the last tael of silver into the cash cabinet that he closed the door with a smile.
Without waiting for Li Yan to speak, Cheng Xuanwen said: "I didn't expect you to find out in just one day." ”
Li Yan just came here two days ago, and now he is here again.
Cheng Xuanwen and Li Yan have known each other for many years, and they can guess seven or eight points when they look at Li Yan's face.
Cheng Xuanwen said: "Li Shenguo, what kind of attitude do you have, do those people find their own grievances against me Cheng someone?" ”
Li Yan said: "If you come to me, I naturally know whether you complain or not." ”
Cheng Xuanwen said: "Chang Qingfeng is going to die, and any lonely soul and wild ghost wants to peel off a layer of skin on him." A miracle doctor came to Qijia Town at the bottom of Yaowang Mountain, and asked for a visit fee of two hundred taels, but as a result, the Chang family broke his leg with a straw bag, and everyone in the city Chinese medicine hall was in danger, and the weaker ones closed directly. The second is Shen Linfeng of Wanxing Pharmacy, who asked the Chang family for a 1,000 taels of medical fees, but as a result, he has not even been able to get out of the door of the Chang family until now. ”
After speaking, Cheng Xuanwen lifted the teapot on the table and poured it directly into his mouth.
Cheng Xuanwen drank cold water with a grunt, and Li Yan also began to think.
The miracle doctor in Qijia Town that Cheng Xuanwen said must be the shopkeeper of Qijia Pharmacy.
This matter can be said to have been caused by him, but Li Yan did not bear it in his heart.
And the second thing is a little weird.
Li Yan asked: "One thousand taels is not a small number, the Chang family is not stupid, how can they believe Shen Linfeng so easily?" ”
Cheng Xuanwen said: "This is Doctor Shen's cleverness, when the Chang family first invited him, he scolded him for a bloody squirt, and then said that the face of a person like Chang Qingfeng is not a good death, even if the Chang family knocks his head, he will not prescribe a medicine to Chang Qingfeng." Then a few days later, the Chang family lowered his face and begged him again, no matter what he said, the Chang family didn't dare to fight back. ”
Li Yan frowned after hearing this: "When Nanze was plagued, I once saw Dr. Shen in Nanze, at that time, Dr. Shen sat in front of a broken table with a haggard face and wrote prescriptions for people. ”
As soon as the words fell, Li Yan immediately remembered that Nanze's refugees!
Li Yan knew in his heart: "Yes, it's almost winter, and the refugees in Nanze are still wearing summer clothes, and Dr. Shen must not be able to bear to see the refugees suffer, so he asked for a thousand taels of silver from the Chang family." ”
The expression on Li Yan's face became reverent, a healer who acted according to principles all his life, finally compromised and abandoned his principles for the sake of refugees.
In Li Yan's heart, people like Shen Linfeng are more worthy of respect than those who do not have enough medical skills and use medical ethics as an excuse.
Cheng Xuanwen's face also became solemn, if the Chang family knew about it, the silver would be in the hands of the refugees, and they would naturally snatch it back.
Chang Qingfeng's son Chang Liang is the Yin of Shuntian Mansion, he is the emperor's eyes, and now that his eyes are closed, where can the emperor still see the people?
Cheng Xuanwen said: "Then the thousand taels of silver should be in the hands of the refugees, fortunately, the Chang family doesn't know about it yet......"
Li Yan stood up suddenly, his wide sleeves hanging down: "They already know. ”
