The group carried the sedan chair three times and hurried to the gate of Xiyuan, although the guards still kept the door, that week's father-in-law took Li Fang's waist card, and he didn't need to search it, so he went straight into the forbidden.

At this time, regardless of any rules, the three sedan chairs were carried directly to Yuxi Palace, and on the way, he said silently: "Sitting in the palace with four sedan chairs, isn't it better than Yan Ge's elder?" ’

Of course, it was only a little bit of silver, and then there was a headache...... On the spur of the moment, he tied up Li Shizhen, if he still loses his temper later, what can he do?

Waiting for the sedan chair to fall, Shen Mo walked to Li Shizhen's sedan chair with apprehension, opened the sedan curtain to look at the angry Imperial Doctor Li, and whispered: "Mr. Li, all the mistakes are my fault, I promise not to fight back or scold back after I go back, but at this time, you must maintain restraint, the emperor's temper is not good, if we don't get it, we will have to move our heads......" said and looked at Li Shizhen again, and said meaningfully: "If you agree, just nod, I will loosen your ...... for you"

Li Shizhen nodded as expected.

was silently overjoyed, ordered someone to loosen Li Shizhen's ties, and personally pulled out the towel for him.

After his mouth was free, Li Shizhen said a word: "Your uncle's ......" and the activist's wrist and ankle ignored him.

Silence is embarrassing, but fortunately, Li Fang came out of it and relieved him.

Li Fang arched his hand towards the two with a serious face, then stretched out his hand sideways and said, "Please two inside." ”

Shen Mo shook his head and said: "The next task is completed, there is no need to go in, it is better to squint in the ear room and wait for Mr. Li to come out." "But he knew that there were some things that didn't do any good to mix things up.

Li Fang didn't force him, nodded and said, "It's okay." He asked people to take Shen Mo to the side hall to rest, and he led Li Shizhen to the main hall.

Lord Shen is a good friend of Gonggong Li, and the eunuchs naturally tried their best to flatter him, using a few chairs to build a bed for him, and hugging two quilts, one bed and one cover, so that Shen Mo couldn't help but sigh secretly: "It's indeed more professional than the servants at home......

Silent didn't take off his clothes, he got into the quilt and closed his eyes, he was also a good sleeper, and after a while he snored; When I woke up, I saw that Li Shizhen was also in this room, sitting on a chair and closing his eyes to recuperate. The side hall was quiet, only the two of them. After a little thought, Shen Mo understood, it is estimated that the emperor has seen a doctor, but the palace gate is not his own gate, how can he always open it casually? So let him wait here for the door to open.

Looking at the sky, it was still early before the end of the day, so Shen Mo closed his eyes and continued to sleep in his cage.

In the haze, I heard the door open again, and I didn't open my eyes silently, but I pricked up my ears. I only heard Li Fang whisper: "Mr. Li, I didn't dare to ask you in detail in front of the Long Live Lord, please be sure to tell me the truth, what kind of disease does the emperor have, why can't so many imperial doctors find out?" ”

"It's not like they can't find out." Li Shizhen's cold voice reached Shen Mo's ears, and he said lightly: "But I don't dare to say it." ”

"What don't you dare to say?" Li Fang asked in a low voice.

"Because the emperor is not sick at all!" Li Shizhen said lightly: "It's poisoning." ”

"What?!" Hearing this, Li Fang's hair exploded, and he said nervously: "Sir, you can't talk nonsense, if you don't get it right, it's a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood......"

"No," Li Shizhen shook his head and said, "I can't blame anyone else, because the emperor is informed and voluntary." ”

"Ah......" Li Fang was completely confused, and said with a wry smile: "Oh, my Mr. Li, don't talk to me dumbly, can you make it clear?" ”

"I see that the emperor's eyes are black, the whites of his eyes are red, and the bags under his eyes are blue, which are all symptoms of mercury poisoning." Li Shizhen sighed and said: "Difficulty breathing, long-term diarrhea, and red blisters on the skin are symptoms of gold poisoning." After a pause, he said: "Headache, dizziness, insomnia, coma, oliguria, black teeth and nails, this is lead poisoning......"

Shen Mo listened on the side, and said in his heart that I have to be that good, what kind of monster this must be, and I couldn't help but secretly rejoice in my decision, so I didn't dare to make a sound.

"How so?" Li Fang lost his mind, he has been with the emperor for decades, and he really has feelings.

"Then I have to ask those Taoist priests," Li Shizhen said coldly: "They use those things to refine the emperor, so it's strange that they don't get poisoned." He whispered, "I admire the emperor." ”

"What do you mean?" Li Fang asked.

"I have been eating these things for decades," Li Shizhen said, "and I have been able to hold on until now......

Li Fang ignored the disrespect in his words, but asked with concern: "Then it doesn't matter, can it be cured with Mr.'s prescription?" ”

Li Shizhen said: "My prescription is used for detoxification, if the emperor can quit the pill from now on, according to my prescription, internal adjustment and external supplementation, and practice qigong, maybe he can survive this hurdle; If you continue to take Dan, even if the treatment is well maintained, it will only take three years and five years. "He's a straight-talking man who never beats around the bush.

Li Fang was stunned, not knowing what to say for a while.

Seeing him like this, Li Shizhen sighed: "When I was in the Tai Hospital, I wrote to advise the emperor not to believe in the techniques of those monks, let alone take the pills of those monks...... In fact, everyone knows this truth, but everyone doesn't say it! He said indignantly: "I, the outspoken one, have become an unpopular outlier, so I left that place." ”

"Why don't they tell the truth?" Li Fang asked with a frown.

"Selfish!" Li Shizhen said in an accentuated tone: "In the past few decades, people's hearts have been corrupted too quickly!" They only think about their future status and forget loyalty, filial piety and righteousness. Therefore, seeing that the emperor was obsessed with Dan Dao and couldn't listen to the words of opposition, he pretended to be confused, everyone understood but everyone didn't dare to speak, lest the emperor be angry and bring disaster to himself! ”

"In this way, those imperial doctors really deserve to be killed!" Li Fang said angrily.

Li Shizhen sneered: "Is it just the responsibility of the imperial doctor?" The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, and so many famous ministers who regarded themselves as scholars, none of them dared to stand up and speak, and no one persuaded the emperor to stay away from those evil arts. Starting from the university scholars, all of them are invited to be pampered for their own selfish interests, and they are evil to the king! I look at the number of qi in the Ming Dynasty, and it's almost over. ”

Shen Mo really pinched the sweat for Li Shizhen, and said in his heart Is this the place to tell the truth? But Li Shizhen is such a temper who dares to speak, if he doesn't say these words, he will suffocate to death!

Li Fang is embarrassed, but fortunately, he knows that Li Shizhen is just a doctor, so he pretended not to hear the second half. But his original intention of asking Li Shizhen to help persuade the emperor was completely dispelled...... When the palace door was opened at dawn, Shen Mo went out with Li Shizhen. On the way home, Li Shizhen naturally wouldn't give him a good face, and Shen Mo also knew that he was at a loss, so he cautiously agreed there, and never let him have a seizure.

When he returned home, he smiled silently, "Let's go to the dining room for breakfast first." ”

Li Shizhen didn't look at him, and went directly to the courtyard where he lived, and Shen Mo had to touch his nose and say, "It's okay to sleep first......

After breakfast, he was going to go back to the country to take a look, saying that he hadn't been back since he was sick. But before the sedan chair went out, he was stopped by Shen An and said, "Master, go and have a look, Mr. Li is leaving." ”

Shen Mo hurriedly got out of the sedan chair and went to the courtyard where Li Shizhen lived, and sure enough, he saw him packing the manuscript there, and hurriedly pressed the box and said: "Mr. Li, Mr. Li, if you have an opinion about me, you can beat me, but you must not leave." "Now that Li Shizhen has become the chief doctor of the emperor and King Yu, if he leaves, Shen Mo will not be able to eat and leave.

Li Shizhen removed his hand and said, "You don't have to worry, it's okay here, I won't leave the capital." He looked at him and said, "I'm just going to live in a different place." ”

Shen Mo held it down again: "Then why bother? ”

"You can do whatever I want, you don't have the right to restrict my freedom, do you?" Li Shizhen said: "I don't want to be kidnapped for a while in the middle of the night. ”

"I apologize to you for the kidnapping, otherwise you would have beaten me." Shen Mo stretched out his face and said, "Never fight back." ”

Li Shizhen pushed his face away and said with a wry smile: "What are you doing here?" Why restrict my freedom? ”

"It's not to restrict your freedom," said silently, "but to keep you safe." ”

"My safety? Joke!" Li Shizhen straightened his sleeves and said: "Except for my colleagues in the Tai Hospital, I haven't offended anyone, so it can't be that those Tai Doctors use knives to kill me, right?" ”

"The Imperial Doctor won't, but the Assassins will." Shen Mo sighed and said, "This month, the government has already arrested three waves of assassins, but they just didn't tell you." ”

"Why didn't you report to the officer?" Li Shizhen was stunned.

"I've handed over the Jinyi Guard." said silently: "It was the people of Jinyi Wei who told me not to make a noise about this matter, because the master behind it made me unprovoked." ”

"Who?" Li Shizhen couldn't help asking.

"Lord Jing." Shen Mo didn't sell anything to him, and said in a deep voice: "If you treat Prince Yu, it is tantamount to offending King Jing, and he will naturally try his best to get rid of you." He simply sat down on the box and said, "Since I invited you, I have to ensure your safety, so you can't go." ”

Listening to his explanation, Li Shizhen's expression softened, and he lowered his voice and said, "I have a reason why I have to go...... I saw the emperor last night, and I can't stay with you today, otherwise it will affect you. ”

"I'm not afraid of being involved," Shen Mo smiled happily: "Besides, I don't know anything, sir, you can live here, don't worry, I'm still a little different from the emperor, and I won't be suspicious because of this." ”

Li Shizhen nodded slowly and did not insist on moving out.

In Yuxi Palace, the doors and windows of the fine house were closed, and Li Fang commanded a few rough eunuchs to pour buckets of steaming medicinal soup into a huge bath barrel. Because it was not ventilated, the house was filled with white air, and the smell of decoction was strong.

Li Fang and those eunuchs wore a robe alone, and they were still sweating hot, but when they looked at Emperor Jiajing again, they were still shivering in a thick quilt...... When everything was ready to stop, Li Fang lowered his voice and threatened fiercely: "If you hear any rumors, you can all prepare the coffin!" The bluffing eunuchs quickly shook their heads and said, "The slaves and maids don't know anything......

Li Fang waved his hand and said, "Let's all go out." ”

The eunuchs retreated, and only he and Jiajing were left in the hall, so Li Fang stepped forward and bowed down and said, "Master, it's ready, please loosen your clothes?" ”

Jiajing glanced at him, nodded and did not speak.

Li Fang stepped forward to help the emperor up, untied the brocade, skillfully removed the dragon robe, and after a while, Jiajing was stripped to only a pair of yellow pants...... I saw that Emperor Jiajing, who had not seen the sky for many years, was really born with white skin and tender flesh, but on his limbs and torso, there were red and swollen spots, and some were even bleeding pus.

Jiajing hugged his arms and shivered, Li Fang hurriedly helped him down into the bucket, and as soon as he stretched out one leg, Jiajing frowned in pain, but he ...... endured it, closed his eyes and gritted his teeth and slowly sat in, not only hot but also painful, and couldn't help moaning.

Li Fang hurriedly asked, "Master, are you okay?" ”

Jiajing closed his eyes and shook his head, but he still didn't speak, as if he was gritting his teeth.

Li Fang looked at it worriedly for a while, and estimated that he could hold it, so he took a white towel, dipped it in medicinal soup, and carefully wiped it for the emperor.

Although he was careful, every time he wiped it, Jiajing's brows would be wrinkled, obviously very painful, and it seemed that he would not be able to help it at any time. Li Fang rubbed it and comforted in a low voice: "Master, bear with it, Mr. Li said, this medicine is very effective, especially the first few times, it works." ”

Jiajing nodded, and with tears in his eyes, he continued to endure it...... endured it, I don't know if it's painful or numb, it's not so unbearable anyway. He finally got in the mood to pay attention to his body, he saw that those red and swollen herpes were no longer as red as just now, not so swollen, and his body felt much more comfortable, so he couldn't help but excitedly say: "Rub, rub hard, rub harder, and make a little more effort...... Oops, you tap ......"

After taking a bath, Lu Fang gently dried Jiajing's body and asked softly, "Master, how do you feel?" ”

"Well, it's much more relaxed, and my head doesn't hurt anymore." Jiajing moved his arms and said: "This Li Shizhen is indeed very powerful, I want to reward him!" As he spoke, he frowned and said, "How can the hospital not retain such a talent?" ”

Li Fang said softly: "Mr. Li has excellent medical skills, but his surname is tough and not very gregarious. ”

"It's normal for people with abilities to have tempers." Jiajing said: "The group of wastes in the Tai Hospital have a good surname, but what's the use?" Saying that, he ordered: "If the decree goes down, Li Shizhen will return to the Tai Hospital...... All the positions are at his disposal, if anyone dares to say a strange word, drive them out of the capital, and never use them! ”

"The slave is grateful for Mr. Li." Li Fang kowtowed for Li Shizhen, and when she saw that the emperor was happy, she said in her heart, I have to talk about Mr. Li's words appropriately and remind Your Majesty.

But before he opened his mouth, he heard Jiajing say again: "He lives in Shen Mo's house, right?" ”

"The master is really good at remembering his surname!" Li Fang nodded and said, "Mr. Li does live in Lord Shen's house now. ”

"Then he has made a meritorious recommendation." Jiajing nodded and said: "Promote him to the bar of the country's prince, he is a good official of the frontier, but when he returns to Beijing, he wears a blue robe, which is really unreasonable." Since Yan Maoqing's accident, Jiajing has felt more and more that silence is good, and even moved the idea of letting him go to Jiangnan again.

"Master, the Guozi Priest Wine is a fourth-grade official," Li Fang whispered: "In the end, it's better to discuss with the ministry, otherwise Lord Shen's face will be dull." ”

"What a rule!" Jiajing snorted and said, "Steal the Lord's might!" But he really didn't want to do much, so he had to succumb to the practice of high-ranking officials being elected by ministers, and said to Li Fang angrily: "Say hello to the cabinet and officials, and say that I said it." ”

Li Fang responded respectfully, and wanted to mention it again, but he heard Chen Hong's voice outside: "Master, great joy!" ”

"What's the joy of?" Jiajing has been in trouble recently, so he can't wait for the good news.

"Those eunuchs who tried Dan came out, and they were all safe and sound!" Chen Hong replied.

"Really?!" Jiajing patted his head and said, "I've been sick and confused recently, and I forgot about this stubble." Then he said in a loud voice, "Bring someone quickly, and show me." ”

"It's right outside." Chen Hong said happily: "You guys go in quickly." ”

The halls opened, and the four eunuchs, tall, short, fat and thin, rushed in, and after the mountain shouted long live, they knelt in front of Jiajing.

Emperor Jiajing asked them to raise their heads, look at them one by one, nodded and said, "Well, yes, it's the four from three months ago." "History has long proved that the elixir is risky, and you must be cautious when taking it, otherwise you will repeat the fate of a series of emperors such as Emperor Qin and Han Wu. Jiajing is extremely afraid of death, and he definitely won't try it, so he often gives it to his ministers, so they can taste it first before talking...... But the ministers are all the shares of the country, and their lives are also very valuable, and if the medicine dies, it will be a shame and a big loss.

So the 'sluts' who don't have to die should try it for the first time.

This is a eunuch who was honorably selected, took the Dragon and Tiger Pill of the Quanzhen School in front of the emperor, and then strictly followed Qiu Jizi's instructions, and continued to take it regularly and quantitatively for three months, but as a result, it didn't hang up.
