Chapter 74: The Son of Heaven Calls
The coachman agreed, and turned the horse's head. Yang Ling looked down at the young lady in his arms who had turned pale, pressed against her cold cheeks, and wept: "Young lady, hold on a little longer, don't leave Xianggong, Xianggong will accompany you to the doctor again, you must hold on, young lady, you promised to accompany me for the rest of your life."
The coachman, a rough man, was so sad that he almost burst into tears, and he blinked, whipped the horse fiercely, and shouted, "Drive! He drove the carriage towards the Huguo Temple.
At this time, the little eunuch in front of the palace, who was out of the palace for the first time by holy order, took four small yellow doors and eight brocade guards, and then the two Han generals carried the brocade chariot in the palace and rushed to Yang Ling's house, but saw that General Tie had locked the door, which was the neighbor old man who helped Yang Ling lock it.
The little eunuch was stunned, what should I do? Go back to the palace to pay the decree? The little eunuch ran out of ideas, and was knocking on the door from door to door to inquire, when Yang Ling's carriage hurried back to the street. The two brocade guards saw that the galloping horse was in a hurry, so they shouted loudly: "Stop, the internal official is on an errand, who is galloping on the horse?" ”
Yang Ling was anxious in his heart, and his mind was full of confusion and thought of going to see the doctor as soon as possible, and when he saw someone blocking the road, he couldn't help but hurriedly say, "Who stopped me from driving?" ”
The little eunuch who passed the decree had just asked Yang Ling if he was at home with his family members for medical treatment, and he walked out of the old man's house in a huff, and when he saw Yang Ling at a glance, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. Yesterday, he went to the East Palace with the emperor, and he had seen Yang Shiyu with his own eyes, so he naturally knew his appearance, and the little eunuch hurriedly shouted: "Yang Shiyu, the emperor has a decree, announce that you will go to the palace immediately."
Yang Ling was so anxious that he sweated, and said without thinking: "I'm not free, hurry up, I'm going to take the young lady to see a doctor!" He waved to the coachman: "Go, go, go to Huguo Temple immediately."
The coachman was speechless, he dared not accept the holy decree, is the brocade style so majestic? He didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly whipped his whip, and the carriage passed past a few Ouchi guards and went straight to the Huguo Temple.
Looking at the carriage and leaving, the people around were all stupid, the eight brocade guards and the four little yellow doors all looked at the eunuch with their eyes, and now he is the Qin Messenger, so naturally everything has to be arranged by him.
The little eunuch was only fourteen or fifteen years old, an age that Ren didn't understand, and today he was temporarily arrested by the emperor and sent by Zhuangding to announce the decree. He thought of everything, but he didn't expect to encounter such a situation. When the will is delivered, but people don't obey it, what should we do? It seems like I've never heard of such a situation at all, so who should I ask?
The little eunuchs were about to cry, and now that the emperor and the Manchu Dynasty were waiting in the Golden Palace, how could they make a difference?
If the elderly eunuch encounters a rare situation in this thousand years, or waives the dust, turns around and returns to the palace to reply to the decree, the emperor Lao Tzu is furious, and it is none of his business to kill the whole family of the strong seed or destroy him all over the house. If you meet a ruthless person who has done the master, maybe an order will be given, and the courtiers who resisted the decree will be killed on the spot by the brocade guard.
But this little eunuch had no idea, he just wanted to bring Yang Ling back, otherwise the emperor would be angry, and his ass would be beaten. He spun around twice in place, waved his hand with a crying voice, and screamed: "Go, follow Yang Shiyu!" ”
Yes, the Chin Cha has spoken, so let's follow. Xiao Huangmen and Jinyiwei led the horses, and the two Han generals carried the brocade chariot, and the eunuch led the way, chasing Yang Ling down.
The pedestrians who came and went all over the street and the lifters who had just finished the first exam and were preparing to take the exam again in the afternoon saw this strange scene, and asked the people who were chasing behind the little eunuch to watch the excitement, and couldn't help but be surprised and laughed.
Some of the big girls and little daughters-in-law were even more moved to tears, and such an infatuated man could not be found on the stage.
The little eunuch chased to Huguo Temple, and happened to see Yang Ling hugging someone and stumbling out of the door, several high-nosed and blue-eyed people shook their heads and chased behind, and their fingers scribbled on the door of their chests.
At that time, Western medicine was only good at surgery, and because microscopes, stethoscopes and other instruments had not yet been invented, the internal medicine promoted by this was far behind surgery. The craniopiercing, phlebotomy, and emetic techniques that doctors are good at are not suitable for the fever of young women.
When these missionaries came east, they also brought some Western medicines to cure colds and flu, but the effect of the medicines was not good, and they had been used up in the past few years, so they could not help the young lady's illness.
The little eunuch caught up with Yang Ling, his face was red with excitement, he hurriedly rushed over and grabbed Yang Ling and begged: "Lord Yang, the emperor is waiting in the Golden Palace, you first send your lady to Lang Zhong for people to take care of, let's go see the emperor first."
Yang Ling smiled sadly: "What are you doing when you see the emperor?" Is it a promotion to make a fortune? You go back to the palace to reply to the decree, I want to take the young lady home", he looked at the young lady sourly and said: "Since I came to the capital, I have not accompanied her well, and I leave her alone at home every day, and now I want to go back to accompany her, go back to accompany her."
Yang Ling is now in despair, don't say that his life is short, even if he can live a long life, without a young lady by his side, what is the point? At this time, the sun was in the sky, but his heart was cold to the bone.
The little eunuch stayed at the door in a daze, thinking about it and chasing again, the brocade-clothed guards in the palace saw that there were too many onlookers, and couldn't help but come to the little eunuch's side and whispered: "Father-in-law, go back to the palace and die, if you continue to chase like this, where is the royal dignity?" ”
The little eunuch had no master, seeing that it was almost noon, for fear that the emperor would be in a hurry, he stomped his feet and said angrily: "Go, go back to the palace, go back to the palace immediately!" ”
He left behind the two Han generals and carried the empty brocade chariot slowly, and he and the others fought like horses, and went straight to the imperial city.
***************************************
Emperor Hongzhi and his courtiers discussed government affairs again, and saw that the early dynasty should have dispersed, so he dismissed the early dynasty and ordered the civil and military officials to return to their original positions, leaving Li Dongyang, a scholar of the Jinshen Palace, Xie Qian, a scholar of the Huagai Palace, Liu Jian, a scholar of the Wuyingdian University, Wang Qiong, a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhang Yanling, the Marquis of Jianchang, to dine in the palace.
Hongzhi wanted to take the opportunity of the banquet to ease the gap between the imperial relatives and several scholars, after all, if the old ministers he relied on were always fighting with the imperial family, it would be a real headache.
He had secretly instructed Liu Jian and Li Dongyang to intercede for Zhang Heling at the luncheon for a while, and then release Shou Ninghou in front of Zhang Yanling, and at the same time asked them to investigate Yang Ling's knowledge together. Because it was a family banquet, Hongji specially called the queen to accompany her younger brother to eat together.
Zhang Yanling has been worried about the court since then, and seeing the emperor's easy-going attitude, he also called the queen's sister to accompany him, so he made up his mind. Yesterday, as soon as his mother, Mrs. Jin, returned home, she looked for him in a panic and told him the news that the prince had been beaten.
Yan Kuan was lying on the bed and pretending to be dead at the time, and when he heard that the second marquis was coming, he thought that he was the backbone of the main body, so he hurriedly bent his waist and jumped in front of him like an old man, and when he saw him, he cried and told the ins and outs of the matter, begging him to be his own master.
After listening to him, Jianchang Hou knew that his little scholar must be the prince, Zhang Yanling couldn't help but hate the root of his teeth, his brother's imprisonment was all caused by this thief, and he also wanted to encourage himself to come out, if the Zhang family lost his holy family, he couldn't get his head back.
After listening to Yan Kuan's crying, the second master Zhang didn't say a word, he jumped up and was a rabbit kicking an eagle, Yan Kuan immediately screamed and rolled to the ground to play with birds. People say that the nephew is like an uncle, and now an uncle has learned from his nephew, Jianchang Hou's kick is extremely accurate, and he is kicking in the place where Zhu Houzhao stomped last time, Yan Kuan took another kick on the root of his thigh, and suddenly howled miserably, rolled on the ground a few times, and fainted with gasps.
Seeing this, his little sister pounced on her, crying so much that she couldn't tell if Jianchanghou's kick had cut off the Yan family's incense. Zhang Yanling's face was blue, and the halberd pointed at his brother's favorite concubine and said sharply: "What are you crying about?" If this bastard dies, roll up the straw mat and throw it in the field to feed the dogs! If he has a big life, tell him to restrain me a little in the future, put his tail in the gutter, and don't go out to make trouble.
Also, get that trouble-making paperwork back to the woman as soon as possible, fuck! Robbing a woman with the prince, the old birthday star hanged himself, you think your life is too long! ”
He swept it fiercely, and shouted at the people who were silent all over the courtyard: "Keep your mouth shut up for me, whoever confides in this matter, I cut his tongue!" ”
Zhang Yanling beat Yan Kuan, and ordered the craftsmen to quickly demolish the houses that occupied the roads and houses during the expansion overnight, so as not to teach the truth, and they were busy until early in the morning to achieve some results.
At this time, he saw that Hongzhi was talking and laughing, and he didn't mention the impeachment of his brother, so he gradually let go of his worries, and he also greeted him.
While he was talking, the little eunuch hurried back, fell to his knees with a pop, and cried: "Your Majesty, the slave is guilty, and the slave has done a bad job."
Hongji said suspiciously: "What did you mess up?" You get up and talk back".
The little eunuch didn't dare to get up, knelt there and said: "The slave went to pass the decree, Yang Shishu listened to the decree, and only said that the lady was suffering from a sudden illness and wanted to accompany her to seek medical treatment everywhere, and asked the slave to go back to the palace first to reply to the decree, but he did not obey the decree, and the slave had no way to come back."
At the banquet, all the ministers and workers changed color when they heard the words, did this Yang Ling eat the bear's heart and leopard gall? It is said that his wife is suddenly ill, even if the sky is under the knife at that time, and he has to answer the call immediately after receiving the holy decree, today's matter is simply unheard of, how can Emperor Hongzhi not be angry now?
Hongzhi was tolerant, and his face sank when he heard this, and he slammed the ivory chopsticks on the table with a "snap", and several ministers hurriedly got up and bowed down when they saw this, kneeling on the ground and not daring to come out.
I only heard Hongzhi say angrily: "What a Yang Ling, so bold, he dares to resist the edict!" ”
*********************************
Yang Ling returned home and picked up the young lady out of the car, just walked to the door, only to hear a Qingyue voice said: "Yang waiter, what a coincidence, I just entered Beijing and was about to visit, I didn't think of it?" This is! What happened to Mrs. Zun? ”
Yang Ling turned his head to look, only to see an old man with a clear face step in front of him, looking at the young lady in his arms in surprise, Yang Ling looked at him sluggishly for a long time, and did not wake up for a while, the old man saw that he was in a trance, and hurriedly said: "Below is Wu Jie, a medicine merchant from Jimingyi, do you remember?" ”
There was also Yang Ling next to him watching the lively people, Wu Jie didn't dare to say his official identity, so he used this identity to remind him. When Yang Ling heard this, he felt very familiar in a trance, and he nodded involuntarily: "Remember, you are Wu Jie."
Wu Jie glanced at Han Youniang hesitantly and asked, "Lord Yang, what's wrong with Mrs. Zun?" ”
Yang Ling smiled sadly and said: "The young lady has suffered from typhoid fever and is seriously ill."
"Huh?" Wu Jie, a thousand households in Jinyi, said in surprise: "Typhoid fever? There's a recipe for it, so why don't you give it a try?"
Yang Lingge smiled and said with a strange expression: "I have seen all the famous doctors in the capital, no one can do anything, can you cure it?" ”
Wu Jie's old face flushed, and said: "I only know a little about pharmacology, and I am really ashamed to talk about curing diseases, but this recipe was passed down by my uncle Wu Qingyuan, and it is said to have a miraculous effect on typhoid fever."
When Yang Ling heard Wu Qingyuan's words, it was like seven souls and six spirits suddenly possessed, he took a step forward, widened his eyes and shouted, "Who are you talking about?" Wu Qingyuan? Tai Hospital is Wu Qingyuan? ”
Wu Jie was startled, he took a step back and said: "It is him, my uncle did serve in the Tai Hospital, but he passed away seven years ago, have you heard of him?" ”。
Yang Ling was ecstatic, he looked up to the sky and shouted, and hurriedly said to Wu Jie: "Hurry up, come into the room quickly, tell me your recipe!" ”
In Yang Ling's room, the doors and windows were closed, and Wu Jie and the Tian brothers were standing in the hall looking nervously waiting for news in the room.
Wu Jie copied Zhang Fangzi and immediately called the coachman to grab the medicine, the coachman rushed back to the "Xinglinju", the Tian brothers heard that Wu Qingyuan, the magic doctor in the past, had a posthumous prescription to cure this emergency cold, and immediately grabbed the best medicinal materials in person, and followed to see what happened.
Wu Jie's recipe for typhoid fever is called "Gassho Ointment", which specializes in the treatment of acute typhoid fever and unconscious people, this medicine does not need to be taken, only with Sichuan Wu, Caowu, Spotted Hair, Croton, Asarium, Pepper, Alum, Dry Ginger, Ephedra according to a certain amount of medicine, and the research is fine. Use good vinegar to beat the paste into a pill, clamp it under the patient's armpit and leg bend, hold a pill in each palm, and the other person lean on it, interlock the palms, put the limbs together, cover with a thick quilt, until the whole body is perspired, and then wash it with yellow mud water.
Yang Ling's body was covered with a thick three-layer quilt, his hands were tightly clasped together with the young lady's cold little hands, hot sweat was rolling on his body, he was close to the young lady's cheeks, and large beads of sweat rolled down and dripped onto the young lady's forehead.
Feeling her subtle breathing, Yang Ling kept calling in his heart: "Young lady, wake up!" Young lady, do you hear me? You must come back to life, you promised to accompany your husband for the rest of your life."
Below, the young lady seemed to hear the call in his heart, and for a long time, let out a moan
*********************************
In the palace, Emperor Hongzhi was pacing with his hands in his hands and was silent for a long time, Zhang Yanling couldn't help but say angrily: "The emperor is so kind to Yang Ling, he is so arrogant, and he has done something that is unreasonable and rebellious, the emperor should immediately behead him to show the world!" ”
Wang Qiong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was so angry that his white hair flew up, and he also said angrily: "Heaven and Earth Monarch Teacher! Yang Ling has read so many sage books in vain, and he doesn't even understand this kind of truth, if this person is not killed, where is the majesty of the court, Your Majesty, please give an order."
Although Liu Jian and the others have a heart of mercy, but Yang Ling's play this time is too outrageous, the Son of Heaven has an edict and does not obey it, it is a great crime to destroy the nine clans, it is really cheap to kill him alone, how can they say the words to ask His Majesty to be gracious?
Li Dongyang saw that Emperor Hongzhi's footsteps were getting slower and slower, and slowly twisted his eyebrows as if he was about to make an order, his heart tightened, and he suddenly came up with a solution, and he didn't care if it would work, he immediately knelt down and said angrily: "Your Majesty, don't hesitate anymore, the minister also thinks that Yang Ling should be killed." His Majesty summoned him to the palace, and the holy edict was the most important thing in the world, saying that his wife was seriously ill, and even if his house was on fire, he had to rush into the palace immediately. ”
Li Dongyang said rhetorically: "What's more, if the sick person is his parents, then it's okay, at least he still has a filial piety, but what is a wife?" When the wife dies, marry another one, the big husband has made meritorious contributions, why worry about not having a wife and a beautiful concubine, this Yang Ling has a wife without a father, a relative without a king, as the saying goes: A wife is like clothes.
Liu Jian and Xie Qian were inexplicable for a while, Li Dongyang is everyone in the world, why is he talking so vulgarly today? Besides, Your Majesty obviously has the intention of loving talent, and it is the determination to kill him with talent for a long time, even if you don't cherish the backwards, why do you follow the well?
The two of them haven't come back to their senses, Li Dongyang straightened his waist, a three-inch non-rotten tongue and spittle, and degraded his wife to talk about clothes, which is not as good as even a pair of pants, he is scolding vigorously, the queen of the six palaces of the mother is already red-faced, furious, she slapped the table, the willow eyebrows are upside down, the phoenix eyebrows are round, and she scolds in a coquettish voice: "Li Dongyang, you stop me!" ”
