Chapter 174: I Know I'm Dying
After bidding farewell to the Marquis of Jin and changing out of court clothes, Zhao Wuxian prepared to go to the remote courtyard again, visit Le Qi, and take Le Lingzi out of the palace by the way.
Outside the courtyard, he happened to run into a medical officer who kept shaking his head, the same one who went to treat Zhao Guangde last time as an ulcer doctor.
Wuxian greeted him and shouted three times in a row before the dejected medical officer reacted and saluted casually. Zhao Wuxian asked and found out that he was transferred to the Qiqi Palace on an errand because of his good performance in the Pan Palace.
Curious, he asked, "Healer, what's going on?" ”
The medical officer sighed: "I claim to be the first in medical skills, and today I know that I have never seen a summer worm in winter." A lady of the Song Kingdom who is not as good as Lu (excited), administers acupuncture and medicine, asks and asks how many times better than me, I don't know how many times, I no longer dare to boast, and I no longer dare to teach others at will. ”
He looked back at the location of the side courtyard, shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity, human life is determined by the sky, if the big secretary and the young master are summoned together, even if there is a heavenly medical skill, it will not be able to stay!" ”
Immediately, the medical officer sighed and left, it could be seen that he had suffered a lot of blows, and the female doctor he was talking about was Le Lingzi?
Zhao Wuxian was strange, and couldn't help but speed up his pace, but he happened to see Le Lingzi who withdrew from the door with a smile, and after closing the door, he leaned against the pillar and gently wiped his tears.
"Lingzi, why is that?" Zhao Wuxian walked into her from behind, his tone concerned.
"Gentleman ......" Le Lingzi had already stopped crying, but after seeing Zhao Wuxian, the grievances and sadness in his heart couldn't help but gush out again, and those beautiful bright eyes suddenly burst into tears.
There was no one around, and she, who was usually extremely strong, threw herself into Wuxian's arms like this, and cried his shoulder. Wet deep clothes. And after being initially overwhelmed, Wuxian gently stroked her back as a sign of comfort.
"Rest assured. I'm here, you speak and I listen. What happened? ”
"It's my father, my father's body is sick, he has contracted a stubborn disease, the spirit son is incompetent, he can't be cured, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to survive this year!"
After listening to Le Lingzi tell the reason, Wuxian suddenly fell silent, Le Qi's long-term illness. Zhao Ying also told him about it. And with the doctor as proof, Le Lingzi's medical skills are excellent, what she said should not be wrong, and now it seems that it is indeed a short life.
There is a saying in later generations: mourning is greater than heart death, and human death is secondary. Although it is secondary, it is also an extremely painful thing for people, especially the living relatives, not to mention that Le Lingzi is a pure filial daughter.
Reiko regained her strength, she said. Le Qi wanted to meet Zhao Wuxian alone, so Wuxian comforted her a few more words and walked in.
Le Lingzi leaned on the cloister outside the door. Frowning in thought. She now has two wishes, one is to find a way to cure her father's stubborn illness, and the other is to let her father return to the Song Kingdom as soon as possible, perhaps with the joy of returning to her hometown and getting rid of difficulties, it will also be good for her health.
Father, I'm afraid I've been missing Shangqiu for a long time.
Just like the poem: Yellow birds and yellow birds, no collection in the grain, no pecking of my millet. The people of this state are not willing to be grained. Word for it. Revenge of our state.
No matter where you are, you can't compare to the comfort and safety of your own home.
Former. She might have turned to the teacher who taught her medicine; And the latter, it seems. I can only count on Zhao's help.
After Zhao Wuxian stepped into the hall, there was another person outside the courtyard, but it was Fan Jia, who had just finished guarding the main hall. He changed his armor, put on a dark crimson coat, painted bear prints, wore jade huang, and stepped on pointy shoes, looking like a gentleman.
He remembered the woman in green he met in the car yesterday, especially her clear and graceful eyes. After inquiring that she was a Le's woman, she had a plan in her heart, and she came here today, and sure enough, she saw the girl who had taken off the tulle curtain from a distance, leaning on the pillar and frowning worriedly.
"Worried about his father...... It was also thanks to Zhao's poor rescue that this gave me a chance. ”
Fan Jia looked at it, although this woman's appearance is not the kind of beauty that can make people lose their souls at a glance, but it is extremely attractive, and the strength and purity in her eyes made Fan Jia give birth to the ** of conquest.
After winning the "complete victory" in the battle of wheat flour, his mind was a little fluttering and proud, and he longed to get this woman as a celebration immediately. So Fan Jia walked over with light steps, thinking about how to persuade this Le concubine to be willing to be her concubine!
……
After entering the small courtyard, Zhao Wuxian found that it was not simple, there were vegetable gardens, utensils, erectors, maids, and even pianos and a lot of bamboo scrolls that could be read to relieve boredom.
Zhao Wuxian took off his shoes and entered the house wearing his footwear, incense was burning in the house, Le Qi was not wearing a crown, and his long gray hair was tied into a flat bun, which was meticulously combed, probably arranged by Lingzi for him.
Compared with more than half a year ago, he has lost weight and aged a lot.
He was wearing a plain dark robe, sitting on the couch, looking at a booklet, and after hearing the voice of the shirtless, he raised his head and glanced at him lightly, showing a kind smile: "I haven't seen you for a long time, the Zhao family has been a little stronger and stronger, and some of them have the appearance of a gentleman." ”
Zhao Wuxian bowed and saluted: "The kid has seen Lebo." ”
He still had a lot of respect for Le Qi, and sat opposite him, thinking about how to open his mouth to persuade him. As for Lingzi's short life, Le Qi himself may not know, but looking at his complexion, there is indeed some sickly flushing.
Le Qi hugged and apologized, picked up a dark medicinal soup with white mist beside him, drank it with a frown, and said with a wry smile: "Lingzi asked me to drink it every day, but what is the use?" ”
Zhao Wuxian's heart trembled slightly, it turned out that Le Qi already knew.
"Last year, Gubu Ziqing once divined a hexagram for me, saying that I came to the Jin Kingdom this time, probably because I couldn't go back, and it came true one by one."
"The words of ghosts and gods, Lebo can't believe them all."
Le Qi waved his hand and said, "I know that I am going to die, I don't need to be relieved, just talk to me today." ”
People are dying, their words are good, birds are dying, their songs are also mourning, Zhao Wuxian is sitting and listening. Next, most of it was Le Qi who was asking, and Wu Xi was answering.
"Zhao Zhuangji once took Zhao Wenzi and lived here, do you know?"
"The kid knows."
Le Qi patted the bamboo scroll in his hand and said: "After arriving here, I realized that there are quite a few doctors imprisoned here, Shu Xiang, Chu Guo Zhongyi, and Uncle Sun Muzi. A few days ago, I found the score written by Shengong Zhongyi when he was trapped here, and I once played it on the qin, and it really has the meaning of the southern sound of Chu State, as well as homesickness. ”
He sighed and said, "I also miss Shangyin in Sishang." (To be continued)
