Chapter 609: Rounding the Bend

Zuo Shaoyang beckoned, motioned to Zuo Gui to attach his ears over, and said in a low voice: "The emperor is suffering from a terminal illness this time, and there is no way to treat it, I want to come out, I am cured, the sin is all on my head, the imperial doctor wants me to carry this rotten wood, Dad, do you still think I should go?" ”
"Terminally ill?" Zuo Gui was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "You haven't seen the emperor, how do you know that it is a terminal illness?" ”
Zuo Shaoyang learned history and knew that Emperor Li Shimin was Zhenguan for 23 years, that is, he died this year. www.biquge.info If he had saved his life, the whole history would have been a mess.
He didn't have a sense of historical responsibility, but felt that more than 100 years after the rule of Zhenguan, the Tang Dynasty became the world's economic and cultural center, and if he messed up history, Datang might be more prosperous, but it was very likely to fall into a mess. I don't know how many lives have been destroyed. It's better to be still than to be still, or to be a passer-by of history.
Father Zuo Gui naturally didn't know that Zuo Shaoyang could predict the future, so he asked him why he knew that the emperor was suffering from a terminal illness, and Zuo Shaoyang couldn't tell him how he knew, his eyes rolled, and he pretended to be mysterious and said in a low voice: "Father, don't forget, I have been the king of the Western Regions for fifteen years!" He has practiced a lot of spells in the Western Regions. I still know a little bit about this astrological divination. I have been watching the sky at night, so I learned about this heavenly opportunity, and my father must not spread it, otherwise we will all have to worry about our lives! ”
Zuo Gui's father looked at Zuo Shaoyang suspiciously, seeing that he was not joking, he didn't think it was possible to joke about this kind of thing, if it was really what his son said, the emperor was suffering from a terminal illness, and he would die if he didn't go, so of course it was better not to go.
Father Zuogui glanced at the guards guarding the courtyard and the eunuchs and palace maids lined up at the door, and said with a bitter face: "But, the mother and the prince ......."
"You don't have to worry about this, I'll take care of everything. As long as you don't help them persuade me, things will be easy. ”
Father Zuo nodded and returned to the lobby with a sad face, where to sit in a daze.
The Liang family and the other women didn't know what Zuo Shaoyang said to Zuo Gui, so he was so depressed, and they also sat on the chair in the lobby and didn't speak quietly.
A few children don't care so much, they are already running around in front and back. Miao's mother limped and followed behind, telling her not to fall. The most ferocious ones are Bai Zhihan's son and daughter, because Bai Zhihan loves them the most, not only is she reluctant to beat and scold, but she even has to protect her short face when others say a heavy word. So these two boys are the whole demon king (female) of the world.
Zuo Shaoyang lay on the recliner with great interest, watching the children playing in the courtyard, Bai Zhihan was also very happy, if it was usual, Zuo Shaoyang would categorically say, let the children go back to review their homework and memorize medical books, but now they don't say anything, obviously in a good mood. As a woman, I wish her husband to be in a happy mood and his wish is fulfilled, so what more can her husband ask for?
After waiting for another half an hour, a father-in-law hurriedly ran in: "Divine doctor, the mother and the prince have arrived, please take over the divine doctor and you!" ”
Suddenly, the drums and the sound of silk and bamboo were ringing, which reminded Zuo Shaoyang of the scene of Yuanchun's relatives in "Dream of Red Mansions".
Looking back, Zuo Gui's father and the other family have been separated on both sides, two forces are trembling, and they don't know where to put their hands and feet.
Then, a team of palace maids and eunuchs held various colored flags, streamers fluttered, and walked into the courtyard, and then, a yellow Luo umbrella was held high in the air, under the umbrella were golden sedan chairs, all eight people carried the bar, flickering, one after another came in, endlessly, as if they could not finish.
Fortunately, the courtyard of the Zuo family's old house is very spacious, and those sedan chairs are parked on both sides of the courtyard in an orderly manner, one by one, and only two sedan chairs are parked in the middle of the courtyard.
Father-in-law Luo has been following the first sedan chair, and after stopping, he bowed and gently pulled up the sedan curtain, and a fragrant breeze hit his nose, and a woman came out.
This woman has a hairpin comb on her head, her temples cover her ears, a goose egg face, her eyebrows are clean, her skin is like congealed fat, she is wearing a blue coat, white plain yarn inside, a high-waisted pleated skirt, a long belt at the waist, and a long scarf on her shoulders. Although the clothes are elegant, they do not hide their grace and luxury, which makes people not be forced to look at.
This middle-aged noblewoman Zuo Shaoyang naturally recognized that she was the eldest grandson empress, the virtuous wife of the current emperor Li Shimin!
A man in golden brocade clothes came down from a sedan chair next to him, walking with a limp, but it was the prince Li Chengqian!
In history, Li Chengqian rebelled in the sixteenth year of Zhenguan, and the crown prince was subsequently abolished, and Li Chengqian died in Qianzhou, which was demoted. It is now the twenty-third year of Zhenguan, Li Chengqian is still alive, and he is still the crown prince. The reason is very simple, Zuo Shaoyang cured Li Yuan, Li Yuan came back from the dead and wanted to regain the throne, but he killed Li Tai, who was competing with Li Chengqian for the throne, and no one competed with him for the crown prince, so the prince has always been his.
Zuo Gui and the others had already hulala, and they all knelt on the ground and kowtowed, but Zuo Shaoyang just stepped forward and bowed: "See the queen mother and Her Royal Highness the prince." ”
The eldest grandson, the empress and the crown prince both knew that Zuo Shaoyang claimed to be the living dead, and he would not kowtow when he saw Huang Yanjing. Not to mention meeting them. It's not surprising that he waved his hands falsely: "The divine doctor is exempt, everyone is exempt, get up!" ”
Qiao Qiao'er and the others had already knelt up, but when they saw that Zuo Gui's father was still lying there, they knelt on the ground again. Zuo Shaoyang had no choice but to walk over and help his father, who was already frightened and at a loss, to pick him up, and the rest of the people got up.
The crown prince Li Chengqian smiled and said: "Doctor Zuo, you have been to the Western Regions for more than ten years, and everyone is very worried about you." ”
Zuo Shaoyang said: "Thank you Your Highness for your concern." I don't know that the prince and the mother have arrived, and there is no distance to greet you, and please forgive me. ”
"Okay, even if I notify you, you won't be far away." The prince still smiled.
At this time, the people in the sedan chair on both sides had already gotten off the sedan chair. Zuo Shaoyang looked at it, and quickly took his gaze back, but it turned out that the sedan chair parked on the left side of the courtyard was all the emperor's concubines!
His eyes swept to the right, but in front of the sedan chair were rows of young boys and girls, the younger one was five or six years old, and the older one was in his teens. They are all dressed in royal golden brocade clothes. After listening to the introduction of Empress Changsun, I learned that in addition to the children of Emperor Li Shimin, there are also the children of the prince Li Chengqian and the princesses who have become married!
Wow! Zuo Shaoyang couldn't help but scream in his stomach, did Emperor Li Shimin and his family all come? Empress Eldest Sun came to the door with this group of concubines and a group of sons, daughters, and grandchildren, what did she want to do?
Looking at this posture, I'm just afraid that it's not good.
"Shaoyang!" Zuo Shaoyang heard a very familiar call in his ears, he was surprised, turned his head to look at the voice, and saw Xiao Yunfei, who was also happy and sad!
"Yun'er!" Zuo Shaoyang said happily and wanted to run over to meet him, but the queen and the prince were here, so he raised his hand and waved.
As if she hadn't seen it, Empress Eldest Sun glanced at the attendant holding a golden scroll.
The waiter inside shouted in a loud voice: "Hezhou Lang Zhongzuogui, originally with the Liang family, kneel to welcome the holy decree!" ”
Zuo Gui and Liang were panicked like headless flies, and when they heard this, they didn't know what to do. Qiao Qiao'er hurriedly came over to support Liang's arm, and said in a low voice: "Old lady, old lady, kneel down and accept the order." ”
Only then did the two of them wake up, and they fell to their knees with a loud bang, their heads resting on the bluestone ground, and their whole bodies were lying on their stomachs, and they didn't know how ugly and ugly their posture was.
The inner attendant unfolded the golden scroll and said loudly: "Under the door, Hezhou Lang Zhongzuo Gui, hanging pot to help the world, wonderful hands and benevolence, named Golden Purple Guanglu Doctor." Mrs. Feng Sanpin. Greatly. ”
Zuo Shaoyang listened to it and immediately understood that the emperor was engaging in curves to save the country. Make a wish to yourself to be a marquis, you don't want it, you can't do it, you can't do it around the bend, canonize your parents, you have nothing to say, and in the future, the old man Zuo Gui will definitely help the emperor force him to do things. That's a great move.
Zuo Gui on the ground was so panicked that his head was like a mess of paste at the moment, and he didn't hear the specific content of the holy decree at all, but he only knew that the emperor had made himself and his wife officials. As for the official, I didn't hear clearly. Liang's is uneducated, and he is more panicked than her husband Zuo Gui, so she doesn't understand. Just kneeling on the ground and lying on his stomach didn't move.
The Zuo family laughed when they heard this, and Qiao Qiaoer saw that Zuo Shaoyang was indifferent, so she had to kneel beside Zuo Gui's father and whispered: "Old lady, hurry up and thank you for receiving the order!" ”
Zuo Gui was stunned, and quickly kowtowed: "Thank you, Lord Longen!" The minister ......, the minister takes the order! ”
Liang also stammered and followed her husband: "Thank you......, thank you Lord Longen!" ”
Zuo Shaoyang's sister-in-law, Zuo Wenyuan, hurriedly came up to support Zuo Gui, and Qiao Qiaoer helped Liang up.
Father Zuo Gui took the holy decree tremblingly, and wanted to laugh, but it was more ugly than crying.
The palace maid next to her carried a large red lacquer box covered with red colors and placed it in front of Zuo Gui. The chamberlain said: "Lord Zuo, this is your official robe, as well as Mrs. Zun's command suit." Please order to receive. ”
Zuo Gui shuddered and lifted the lid of the big box and took a look, seeing that there were several sets of official robes and command clothes in the box, and he was even more flustered: "This is ......, this is for me?" ”
"yes. Later, you quickly changed your official robe, and when you see Niangniang and the prince in the future, you will have to wear official robes. ”
"Yes......," Zuo Gui nodded in agreement, and asked again: "I, what kind of official am I?" ”
The inner attendant smiled and said: "Congratulations, master, the emperor has appointed you as a third-grade official!" Mrs. Zun is the lady of the three grades! ”
Zuo Gui was in a panic, and after listening to this official title, he finally found a little soul: "Sanpin? This ......, oops, so ......, so high. ”
"Not really. Not to mention that the emperor is no better for your Zuo family. Throughout the ages, you are the first one who can be named a third-grade official in Langzhong. Congratulations, sir! ”
"Thank you...... thank you, thank you" Zuo Gui seemed to suddenly remember something, and hurriedly took out the money bag, and didn't count it, all of it was stuffed into the attendant in the decree.
Niangniang was on the side, where did the waiter dare to pick up, shook his head with a smile, and retreated.
Zuo Gui was about to chase after the money, and the eldest grandson queen had already smiled and said to Zuo Gui: "Zuo Qing, this palace and all the mothers and children, want to live in your mansion for a few days, I don't know if it's possible?" ”
Zuo Gui was still in a trance under high tension, pinching the money bag and not knowing what to do. After all, Qiao Qiao'er next to her is a child of an official family, and she has seen a lot of big scenes, although she is also nervous, she can still deal with it, and she hurriedly whispered to Zuo Gui: "Old lady!" The Queen is talking to you! Old gentleman! ”
"Huh?" Zuo Gui replied in a panic and looked back at her.
Qiao Qiao'er said to the eldest grandson, Queen Nunu: "The queen mother, they want to live in our house for a while, and ask you if it's okay?" ”
"Okay......, okay...... okay!" Zuo Gui hurriedly agreed. He also made a gesture to the queen: "The humble house is ......, I am afraid, I am afraid that I will neglect the mother and the ......, and the princes, and the princess, Her Royal Highness......
"It's already pretty good." Empress Changsun said to the Liang family: "Then please ask Madame to lead the way, let's stay first and then talk, the palace is really a little tired along the way." He turned his head to Zuo Shaoyang and said, "Divine doctor, you and Princess Feiyang should also catch up with the past." With that, a gust of fragrant wind passed by Zuo Shaoyang, and he walked inside. The concubines, princes and princesses followed.
Zuo Gui and Liang were still a little at a loss, and Father-in-law Luo hurriedly whispered: "Hurry up and lead the way!" Only then did the two come back to their senses, and the Liang family, supported by Qiao Qiaoer, quickly followed, and led the queen and others inside.
Xiao Yunfei flew in front of Zuo Shaoyang like a swallow, and wanted to pounce into his arms, but he was embarrassed, Zuo Shaoyang didn't care so much, grabbed her hand, pulled her and ran into the side room, closed the door, and the two hugged each other tightly and fell on the soft couch.
This intimacy is really tender and full of anger. The fifteen years of parting pain have been poured into this passionate kiss.
It was not easy to hug and speak, Zuo Shaoyang didn't care about the parting after the farewell, and asked: "The queen came to our house in such a big battle, and gave my parents the official title, what do you want to do?" ”
Xiao Yunfei glared at him resentfully: "How do I know!" ”
"Why don't you know?"
"Why should I know?"
"Didn't you come together?"
"Yes, but the queen just told us to go to Hezhou to find you together, and didn't say anything else. I think I'm here to beg you to treat the emperor. You have such a big shelf, so many people come to beg you, you have earned enough money now, right? ”
Zuo Shaoyang hugged her and kissed her: "Where am I and why do I have face, I really can't cure the emperor's illness." It's all in vain! ”
"How do you know if you can't be cured if you don't go?"
"Do you want me to go or does your mother want me to go?"
Xiao Yunfei's expression darkened: "My mother ......, she died of illness two years ago......"
"Huh?" Zuo Shaoyang was shocked, "Why don't you call me back?" If I knew, I would have come back to heal her! ”
Xiao Yunfei shook her head gloomily: "There was no warning beforehand, that night she said that she was not feeling well, and she said that she called the imperial doctor, but she said no, but the next day, I found out that she had ...... and went to ......."
Zuo Shaoyang stayed for a long time, hugged Xiao Yunfei tightly, and kissed: "I'm sorry ......"
"What are you sorry for, even if you are in Hezhou, it is too late to save her. Okay, let's not talk about these sad things......"
"Yes, yes!" Zuo Shaoyang kissed her for a while, which was considered to be comforting, and then said: "The emperor's illness shouldn't be very important, right?" ”
"Yes,—— how do you know that the emperor's illness doesn't matter?"
