Zuo Gui frowned: "Why?" ”

Zuo Wenning said with a hippie smile: "Grandpa, don't you think our family should have a scholar?" ”

Zuo Shaoyang snorted: "You are very confident in reading?" ”

"It's okay. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" Zuo Wenning said: "Among the brothers, my book is the best. ”

"The imperial examination is not just for a few of you!"

"I'm not afraid to take the test with others. Besides, isn't there still a grandfather and a father, grandpa is a high-ranking official of the third grade, and his father is a big celebrity in front of the emperor, and he is about to marry us back to a princess and concubine. ”

Zuo Shaoyang said angrily: "What did you say? Want to cheat? There are no doors! ”

Zuo Wenning still said with a hippie smile: "Dad, didn't you also catch a pen for others to take the exam back then......

"Who told you?"

"Aunt Bai told me a few days ago!" Zuo Wenning looked at his mother Bai Zhihan. Bai Zhihan is a concubine, Zuo Wenning can only call the original partner Qiao Qiao'er as her mother, but she can only call her aunt to her biological mother.

Zuo Shaoyang glared at Bai Zhihan. Bai Zhihan's face flushed slightly, and she said angrily to her son: "You kid, your mother is joking with you, but you take it seriously!" ”

Zuo Shaoyang waved his hand and said: "That's right, my father used to take the pen for someone else's test, but it was because my father didn't think about it and did it wrong." If you are wrong once, you can't be wrong again, so your father will never cheat on your relationship! ”

Zuo Wenning spread his hands: "It's okay, my father wants to be faced, and my grandfather will help me." ”

Zuo Gui's father glared and blew his white beard: "Who will help you?" You little rabbit cub don't learn well, and you think about these messy crooked ways! - Daughter-in-law Zhong, you have to take care of it! They can't be left alone! Zuo Gui was angry at Qiao Qiao'er.

Qiao Qiao'er blushed and hurriedly agreed, and said to Zuo Wenning: "Wenning, you are good at studying, you don't want to study medicine and no one will press your head to study, but if you want to pass the title of the imperial examination gold list, you have to rely on yourself, you cheat by others to pass the test, even if you are the top student in high school, the whole family will not have a bright face." Do you understand? ”

Zuo Wenning lowered his head and snorted.

Zuo Shaoyang glanced at a few children: "Who else doesn't want to study medicine?" ”

Zuo Wenxi said: "I want to learn, but grandpa won't let me." ”

"Why?"

Zuo Wenxi glanced at Zuo Gui, lowered his head and didn't speak.

Zuo Gui said: "Girls' family, just open your eyes and be blind if you don't read and write properly." What's the use of studying medicine, and you can't sit in the hall for consultation. ”

Zuo Shaoyang knew that ancient women did not learn this, and there were no famous girls. Zuo Gui's thought represents the traditional practice of ancient times. At the moment, he said: "If you want to learn, learn a little, although you don't sit in the hall for consultation, but after you get married in the future, if your family is sick or something, you also know the priority, so as not to be harmed by some quacks and fall into the prestige of Guizhitang created by the old lady." Isn't it, old lady? ”

Zuo Shaoyang raised it to this height, Zuo Gui's face was very bright, and he twisted his white beard and nodded slowly: "That's right, okay, if you want to learn, you can follow your father." ”

Zuo Wenxi jumped up happily, took Zuo Shaoyang's hand and smiled from ear to ear.

Zuo Shaoyang said: "Enlightenment things, let your brother teach you, and after you have studied for a year, your father will teach you." ”

Zuo Wenxi glanced at Zuo Wenshan: "He?" Can he? ”

"Don't underestimate him, your younger brother Wenshan has been with his father since he was a child, and his medical skills have been passed on by his father, which is better than the so-called famous doctors in the capital."

Zuo Wenxi took a closer look at his ten-year-old brother. Zuo Wenshan smiled at his sister. Didn't speak.

Zuo Shaoyang looked at his second son Zuo Wenjing: "What about you?" ”

Zuo Wenjing sneered: "I've been studying medicine with my grandfather, but I'm not as lucky as Wenshan to be able to study medicine with my father." So now, I haven't made much progress. ”

As soon as Zuo Gui's father heard this, his face pulled down, and he snorted heavily in his nostrils.

Zuo Wenjing realized that something was wrong, he originally wanted to flatter his father, but he didn't expect to offend the old lady, and hurriedly laughed: "I'm not saying that grandpa you can't do medical skills, I'm saying that I'm stupid and can't learn grandpa's medical skills." ”

Zuo Gui's father's face softened slightly.

Zuo Shaoyang said: "Grandpa is old, and now he is a high-ranking official, and the affairs of the court must be busy." I don't have time to teach you. In the future, you will study medicine with your Wenxi sister and your Wenshan brother. I'm almost done, I'll teach you again. ”

"Oh!" Zuo Wenjing agreed with a bitter face.

Zuo Shaoyang glanced at his youngest daughter Zuo Wenxue beside him. Zuo Wenxue stuck out her tongue playfully.

Zuo Wenxue only likes to dance with guns and sticks since she was a child, and she dozes off when she holds a medical book, Zuo Shaoyang knows that she is not a medical student, and he doesn't bother to ask her, and looks at his sister-in-law Zuo Wenyuan: "What about you?" ”

Zuo Wenyuan bowed and said: "I often hear people praise my grandfather and father's medical skills, and I am very envious in my heart, and I often fantasize that one day I can be like my grandfather and father, hanging pots to help the world, and there are countless living people, so that I can walk in the world in vain." In the future, children must study medicine hard. I strive to be like my grandfather and father in the future, and become a world-famous miracle doctor. ”

Zuo Gui's father happily stroked his white beard and nodded repeatedly: "Well, very good, although we are not for fame, but, hanging pots to help the world, there are countless living people, it is indeed the only way to live in vain!" Hehehe"

Zuo Shaoyang had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay, let's be busy for a few days, and then we will open a medical practice." ”

Just as he was saying this, the servant hurriedly ran in and reported to Zuo Shaoyang: "Master, the decree of Gonggong Luo in the palace is here." ”

Zuo Shaoyang and Zuo Gui hurried to the front hall.

Father-in-law Luo smiled at Zuo Gui and said, "Our family has some private matters that we want to talk to Doctor Zuo, I don't know if it's convenient?" ”

Zuo Gui hurriedly smiled and said: "It's naturally convenient, the old man retires!" So saying, he bowed, withdrew, and closed the door of the room.

The smile on Father-in-law Luo's face disappeared, and he whispered to Zuo Shaoyang: "Niangniang asked me to report the prince's handling to you, the divine doctor." The saint personally interrogated the prince, convicted the prince of the felony of conspiracy, put him on death row, and handed over the case to Situ Chang Sun Wuji, Sikong Fang Xuanling, Li Ji, the secretary of the military department, Sun Fujia, Dali Qing, and Chu Suiliang, the counselor, and proposed the candidate for the prince. ”

Zuo Shaoyang understood after hearing that the emperor did not hand over this rebellious case to Dali Temple for trial, but appointed several important ministers of the court to meet for trial, obviously not wanting to deal with it purely by law, and wanted them to find a reason to save the prince from death.

Let these five people mention the candidates for the crown prince, did the emperor want to kick the ball to them, and chose Li Zhi, so as to make excuses in front of himself?

Let's wait and see what happens. Zuo Shaoyang decided, and immediately said: "Is the emperor in good health?" ”

Grandpa Luo shook his head: "It's even heavier than a month ago." The queen's mother said that if the divine doctor is convenient, please enter the palace as soon as possible to treat the emperor. ”

Zuo Shaoyang nodded: "Without further ado, let's enter the palace." ”

Zuo Shaoyang entered Beijing this time, and he also brought a donkey, and still rode the donkey into the palace with this Luo Gonggong.

When he arrived at the door, he was naturally stopped and said that he could not ride a donkey into the palace.

Zuo Shaoyang glared and said, "The palace is so big, is it possible to tell me to walk in?" I was young enough to walk, but now I'm too old to walk, and if I wasn't allowed to ride a donkey in, I'd go back. "Then turn the donkey's head and go back.

Father-in-law Luo hurriedly stopped: "The miracle doctor is slow, otherwise, how about changing it to a carriage?" ”

"No! I'm used to riding donkeys and don't want to ride in a carriage! ”

Father-in-law Luo was anxious to let Zuo Shaoyang go in to see the emperor, and he didn't want to waste time on this trivial matter, so he said: "Okay, ride a donkey, let's go!" ”

The heads of the imperial city garrisons are all big, how can I see anyone riding a donkey in the palace, but this is what the emperor's father-in-law Luo said, who dares to object? I had to get out of the way.

Zuo Shaoyang's pigtail flicked in the air, and there was a crisp sound, the little donkey's hooves rattled, and the neck bell was Lingling, and he slipped into the palace with a smoke.

Gonggong Luo took Zuo Shaoyang to Emperor Li Shimin's bedroom.

Zuo Shaoyang got off the donkey and tied it to a peach tree full of peach blossoms.

Luo Gonggong went to report first, and soon came out, saying that the emperor had announced that he had gone in to face the saint. Zuo Shaoyang carried the outpatient box on his shoulder and followed Luo's father-in-law into the dormitory.

In the dormitory, a huge dragon bed was placed in the middle, and the eldest grandson queen, concubines, and princes were waiting beside the dragon bed. Two rows of palace maids and eunuchs stood with their heads bowed.

There was still a young man standing at the end of the bed, his eyebrows were locked, and when Zuo Shaoyang came in, he hurried up to meet him, knelt down with a bang, choked and kowtowed: "Master! You're back......! ”

Zuo Shaoyang didn't pay attention, a little surprised, and heard him call himself master, Chi asked: "Are you ......, Ming'er?" ”

The young man raised his head, it was Du Yan's eldest son, Zuo Shaoyang's apprentice Du Ming!

Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly put down the outpatient box, helped him up, and saw that he was already as tall as himself, and he hadn't seen him for fifteen years, so he really had mixed feelings, and patted him on the shoulder: "You are very good, I heard about it, and you didn't embarrass me." ”

Du Ming smiled a little embarrassedly, and hurriedly turned sideways and said, "Master, you should first diagnose the saint."

Zuo Shaoyang looked up and saw Emperor Li Shimin lying on the head of the bed, looking very haggard. At the head of the bed was a golden basin with some clear water in it.

Zuo Shaoyang stepped forward and bowed: "Zuo Shaoyang sees the emperor!" ”

Li Shimin was originally closing his eyes to recuperate, but when he heard the voice, he slowly opened his eyes, and after seeing Zuo Shaoyang clearly, he suddenly came to his senses, and even sat up by himself, beckoning with difficulty: "Doctor Zuo, you are here!" Quick, give me a seat! ”

Father-in-law Luo personally brought a brocade round stool to Zuo Shaoyang and placed it next to the bed.

Zuo Shaoyang sat down in his robe, carefully observed Emperor Li Shimin's face, and found that his loose facial muscles trembled slightly, his raised hands, his wrists hung weakly, and his fingers were trembling. He asked, "What does the Holy One think?" ”

"Not good! It's very uncomfortable. ”

As Li Shimin spoke, Zuo Shaoyang smelled a metallic smell, and couldn't help but move in his heart, and asked again: "Where does the emperor feel uncomfortable?" ”

"The whole body was weak, the stomach hurt, and in the position of the navel, there was a burst of pain, like a knife stirring in it. The pain is unbearable. Teeth also hurt. ”

Zuo Shaoyang said: "Open your mouth and let me see." ”

The emperor opened his mouth, Zuo Shaoyang grabbed his lips with his fingers and opened them, and found that the oral mucosa was congested and ulcerated, and there was a blue line on the gums! Look at his gums are red and swollen and bleeding, and there is a metallic smell in his mouth. I understood a little bit in my heart.

Zuo Shaoyang asked the emperor to lie down, and after asking him where the pain was, he gently pressed it down with him and asked, "How do you feel?" ”

The emperor said, "The pain should be lighter." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the emperor was sick to his stomach, and the eldest grandson queen next to him hurriedly helped him to lie on the bed, and the emperor vomited for a while, except for some mucus, but he couldn't vomit anything, obviously his stomach was already empty.

After the palace maid changed the basin, Zuo Shaoyang sat back on the round stool.

The emperor asked with difficulty, "Doctor Zuo, what am I...... What disease? Does it matter? ”

This is a concern for everyone in the room. They all looked at him together.

Zuo Shaoyang said in a deep voice: "Can I talk to the saint alone?" ”

The emperor was stunned for a moment, nodded slowly, and waved his hand. Empress Changsun and the others all withdrew. I also brought the gate shut.

Zuo Shaoyang said: "Before talking about the illness of the saint, I want to ask the saint a question. I don't know if it's possible? ”

"Let's talk about it!" The Emperor frowned.

"I cured the queen's mother, at that time the emperor promised that he could agree to any of my requests, but, our Gangren Buche mandala army was besieged by 200,000 Tibetan troops, I have asked the emperor several times to send troops to attack Tubo, why didn't the emperor send an army to attack Tubo, for our Gangren Buche mandala to relieve the siege? Isn't this a broken promise? ”

The emperor's flabby and dry face was slightly hot, but fortunately, he had heard enough adverse words from Wei Zheng, who dared to speak out, over the years, and some of Wei Zheng's words were much harsher than Zuo Shaoyang's, and his cheek was also practiced, so he quickly returned to normal, and said: "It's not that I don't have credibility, it's really difficult to take care of it, and I was going all out to prepare to attack Goguryeo." I really can't afford to take care of both the east and the west. ”

"Then the emperor shouldn't have lied to me with empty words!"

"If I don't say that, how can you heal my queen? The queen can live to this day because of the merits of the miracle doctor, which I am engraved in my heart. ”

"So the Holy Lord's reward for my parents this time is a reward, right?"

"Hehe, it's nothing. I am indeed deeply sorry for that incident, and I hope that the divine doctor can forgive me, I am willing to compensate for the loss of the divine doctor, what the divine doctor wants, just ask! ”

It is not easy to get the emperor to admit his mistake to his face. Zuo Shaoyang's anger in his heart also subsided a little, and said: "I don't want anything, as long as the emperor sends envoys to clearly inform Tubo and ask them not to attack the mandala, if Tubo doesn't listen and send troops to the mandala, I hope the emperor can send troops from the east to attack Tubo." ”

"That's fine!"

The emperor personally led the army to the east to conquer Goguryeo, although Goguryeo was hit hard, but it was not completely eliminated, and because of serious illness, he finally returned in vain, now he has no power to go east, and does not plan to restart the war in a short time, and he has married Princess Wencheng to Tubo Zanpu Songtsen Gampo, the king of the Western Regions still respects himself very much, let him let go of a small mandala, this matter should not be difficult, and it is a big deal to marry a female princess of the clan to them Tubo. So the emperor readily agreed.
