Chapter 48: Resistance to the Decree
The cold wind blew, in front of the door of this Tai Hospital, the two stood opposite each other, one was dressed in black and robe, with soap boots on his feet, his air was lofty, and there was a domineering spirit between his eyebrows, his sword eyebrows flew into his temples, and he held a secret book in both hands.
And opposite him, an old man stood tall, although he was dressed in coarse linen clothes, but he had white hair and long beard, and his cold sleeves were in the wind, like a fairy among the gods, fluttering like a fairy.
Both of them were silent, but the atmosphere was becoming heavy, and the old man's breathing became short, like the whirring sound of the bellows under the rapid pull, the breath was so long, this was by no means an ordinary person.
"Is this legendary?" The old man asked aloud.
"As you can see, sir! That's it! It's just that Mr. Truth is a big expert, and the people of the world dare not say anything, and they need to be distinguished by Mr.'s eyes! The black-robed man replied aloud.
"It seems that this gate full of red dust and evil obstacles, the old man has to go in and walk on it!" The old man doubled the beard on his chin, did not take the things in the hands of the black-robed man, and walked towards the gate with a laugh, behind him were the snowflakes flying in the sky, and the whistling north wind.
In the Imperial Palace, in the Showa Palace, Li Yuan was reviewing the recital, and at this time, a small yellow door was outside the door asking to see him.
"Qi to the emperor, Daoist Sun Simiao has entered Chang'an City, is it announced that he will enter the palace to diagnose and treat the emperor's body?" Xiao Huangmen was a confidant eunuch beside Li Yuan, so he dared to admonish Li Yuan directly like this.
"Sun Simiao has arrived in Chang'an? Where are you now? Li Yuan didn't raise his head, and continued to worry about the music in his hand.
"It's already in the Tai Hospital, and His Royal Highness King Qin welcomed him in to treat Princess Pingyang's injuries." The little yellow door returned to the road.
"It seems that I, the second son, still really cares about Xiuning's girl, unlike Jiancheng and Yuanji. If only he were the eldest son, it would have been so good! Li Yuan put down the fold in his hand and rubbed his eyebrows. During this period of time, Li Yuan felt that his body was not as good as before, it seemed that he was old, and at the same time, there was an element of being angry with his three sons. This time, Li Er invited Sun Simiao, and Li Yuan also wanted to take the opportunity to see if his body was recuperating!
"With the intention of the people, Xuan Sun Simiao Dao will enter the palace to face the saint! Then send someone to the Tai Hospital to announce the decree! Remember to be grand! Li Yuan thought for a moment and said.
"Slave obeys!" The little yellow door retreated, and only turned around when he got out of the gate, a trace of obscurity flashed in his eyes, and then he went to the side to wait for the holy decree to be drawn up, and found someone to make all the honor guards used to announce the decree, and then got into the carriage and left the palace. It's just that a small note appeared between his fingers at some point, and when he passed by the corridor in front of the palace gate, it quietly stuffed into the gap in the wall tiles.
On the other side, in the Tai Hospital, Li Er was waiting anxiously at the door, Li Xiuning's wound site was more sensitive, Sun Simiao was a doctor, and he was close to sixty years old, so there was no taboo. Xiang young men, not even relatives like Li Er were not allowed to enter it. I could only stand at the door and wait for the result, but now Sun Simiao had been in for nearly two hours, and now it was going to be dark, and it would be dark after a while, and there was no sound except for Li Xiuning, who let out a few painful snorts before. That's why Li Er is so anxious and anxious, and Li Er empathizes with those people in the palace who came to announce the decree, and the emperor is still waiting for a reply, but Sun Daochang helped Princess Pingyang treat her injuries, and no one can be disturbed, and they can't help it!
Finally, the door opened. Sun Simiao wiped the beads of sweat on his head and walked out, with a gray beard, gray hair, coarse linen clothes, and shoes on his feet. This is no different from the average old peasant in the countryside, but this is the most famous miracle doctor at that time.
"Finally lived up to the trust of King Qin, Princess Pingyang's wound, the old man took care of it, thanks to that magical alcohol, the use of wounds does have an extraordinary effect! It's just that I don't know if King Qin still exists? When Sun Simiao cut Li Xiuning's wound and removed the carrion just now, he found that the solution contained in the small bottle sent with the knife was actually very effective in cleaning the wound, and it also had the function of dispelling evil spirits, which made this old man who was dedicated to medicine couldn't help but be moved. If this thing can be popularized, the number of people who will die from trauma and become disabled will be reduced by half. This is the blessing of the world, so he has the cheekiness to ask Li Er for it. Because of the label on the bottle, he knew it was called alcohol.
Listening to this name, it seems to be related to wine, and there is a strong smell of wine when you smell it, even if you just smell Sun Simiao, you know that this is stronger than the strongest grassland spirits, as for the Sanle pulp of the Tang Dynasty, it is like an inferior wine mixed with most of the water in front of this alcohol.
"What alcohol?" Li Er doesn't know about this thing, he has been running around for the past two days, he really doesn't know what is going on at home, the rectifier drawings that Li Kuan gave him, he just handed them over to the eldest grandson, and in his eyes, the rice paper with incomprehensible patterns is useless.
After getting this drawing, the eldest grandson didn't send someone to do it, and he wanted to ask Li Er what this thing was, but Li Er had already gone out of the city to inspect the barracks. So she had to find Li Kuan, and under Li Kuan's guidance, she bought a hundred catties of fine wine, steamed it back and forth in the still, and guessed a small pot of alcohol weighing only a few catties.
Through this miraculous instrument, the eldest grandson rediscovered the power of the scientists behind Li Kuan, and at the same time saw a way to make a fortune. An idea that made her novel came up, which also opened the beginning of the great changes in the entire Tang Dynasty later.
Li Er didn't know about these, he was so busy in the past two days that he was dizzy, if it wasn't for the "Green Capsule Sutra" that he had been carrying with him, I am afraid he would have forgotten it. At this time, Sun Simiao asked him and remembered that it seemed that his son had promised to give a thing to clean the wound, which should be the alcohol that Sun Daochang asked.
"Daochang Sun, this thing was made by Xiao'er, and the people of the world don't know very well, I'm afraid I have to ask Mr. Sun to move to the mansion and ask Xiao'er to find out." Li Er's words are also true, but he also has his own careful thoughts, now that the sky is about to get dark, if Sun Simiao goes to the Qin Palace, then he will have to stay there for one night, so that the prince will inevitably label him as Li Er, even if this doctor in the world can't help himself, it is impossible for the prince to accept it. After all, such a doctor who can rob people with Hades may be able to save his life at some point, but he can't give him a chance to throw himself into his enemy.
Li Er's abacus played well, but he was interrupted by a group of eunuchs, with a sharp voice: "The holy decree has arrived!" A group of guards carried a guard of honor, and two eunuchs came from the middle.
"Divine Doctor Sun Simiao takes the order!" The eunuch said in a loud voice.
"Grass people Sun Simiao, take the order!" Sun Simiao half-knelt down, and Li Er, who was on his side, was not spared, so he could only kneel down.
"The emperor said: The divine doctor Sun Simiao entered the palace to face the saint! Chin this! The holy decree was very brief, it just said that Sun Simiao wanted to enter the palace, and there was not even a specific time, it seemed that he was going to go immediately. Li Er was a little sorry, but the holy order was difficult to do, and he couldn't do anything!
But Sun Simiao did not immediately accept the order to thank him, but knelt on the ground and raised his head: "Please forgive the grass people for not being able to comply with the order, now Princess Pingyang has just finished treating her injuries, and the specific result is still unknown, if there is any recurrence, the grass people may be ...... in the palace" The words were very resolute, although they were tactful, Li Er heard the kind of determination that could not be changed. For the sake of Li Xiuning's injury, Sun Simiao was disrespectful, and Li Er had to give Sun Simiao a thumbs up for his virtue.
In fact, Li Er had an amazing idea in his heart: if it wasn't Li Xiuning lying on the couch in the room at this time, but just an ordinary patient, Sun Simiao would definitely make the same choice. He didn't know why he had such an idea, but he felt that the speculation was very true. It's just that Li Xiuning's identity gives Li Yuan a seemingly decent step!
"We can't be the master of this!" These eunuchs bowed their knees in front of Li Yuan, but they were arrogant in front of outsiders. Even if he was the most famous miracle doctor in the world, Li Yuan had to give three points of color, but these eunuchs just dared not to give face.
Li Er shook his head secretly, feeling that these eunuchs didn't know the current affairs, but they didn't make a sound, and just observed there: There must be despicable people among these people, so their expressions have a deep meaning. Is there something wrong with it? According to what Li Er had learned before, the despicable were just a group of people who wanted to protect themselves, but now it seemed that they were also involved in the political factional struggle!
For these things, Li Er will not explain, he can only strengthen his guard in secret, as for what kind of thoughts these people in front of him think, Li Er can also guess three points: such an arrogant expression is to provoke Sun Simiao and make him forcefully refuse. But what effect does this have in addition to making Li Yuan feel faceless?
Could it be that they are stirring up a wedge between my father and me? Let my father feel that Sun Simiao has my support behind him, so he dares to directly resist the will and disrespect like this? Li Er was shocked when he thought of this, but he didn't expect that these eunuch palace maids would actually lean on the crown prince, it seems that they can't go on like this!
"Please also ask my father-in-law to return to my father, Mr. Sun has just treated Xiuning's injury, he is mentally exhausted, and it is getting late, so he will not go to see his father today, and when Xiuning's injury is stable tomorrow, he will make amends to his father in person!" Li Er stood up, since these eunuchs dared to act like this, then don't blame him. directly helped Sun Simiao reject Li Yuan's holy decree, and it was reasonable. Even if these eunuchs go back to reverse right and wrong, it is useless, there are many imperial doctors in the surrounding rooms who come to visit them, they are witnesses, and these people can only hint vaguely, and they dare not directly pick and choose.
Li Er has spoken, and the eunuch who announced the decree has nothing to say, besides, they have been waiting here for so long, I am afraid that Li Yuan already knows the development of the matter, Sun Simiao treated Li Xiuning's injuries as soon as he entered Chang'an City, this is very face-saving for Li Yuan and Li Er, otherwise it would not be a big deal to rest in the dust. Therefore, for the sake of Li Xiuning's injury, Li Yuan can also understand the delay of a day and a half.
Just after the eunuchs left in disgrace, a carriage drove into the courtyard of the hospital. The eldest grandson came with Li Kuan and Li Liqing, these two little guys are not in good health, and while Doctor Sun is here, he quickly took them to take a look.
