The beautiful woman smiled, really bright as a spring flower: "Emperor, I see that what this child said has some truth. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Li Shimin had no choice but to nod: "Since the concubine is reasonable, then he is allowed not to give a big gift." ”

Hearing this beautiful woman talking to herself, Zuo Shaoyang suddenly had a good impression of her, and glanced at Xiao Yunfei again, but saw that Xiao Yunfei was looking at herself shyly, her eyes touched, and she hurriedly turned her head, her face was already flushed.

Li Shimin said: "Zuo Aiqing, I forgive your capital crime because my beloved concubine, Princess Yongjia and Princess Feiyang intercede for you, and you don't come forward to thank them for their kindness?" ”

"Princess Feiyang?" Zuo Shaoyang had some aftertaste, and looked at Xiao Yunfei: "Sister Xiao, are you Princess Feiyang?" ”

Xiao Yunfei nodded shyly: "My father was newly canonized." After that, he put his hands on the shoulders of the beautiful woman and said, "Shaoyang, this is my mother, who was exiled to the Turkic country before, and my father sent a large army to defeat the Turks and welcome back my mother. and canonized as a concubine. ”

Only then did Zuo Shaoyang know that this beautiful woman was Xiao Meiniang, a famous beauty who served seven emperors in history!

Li Shimin and Xiao Meiniang are old acquaintances, and there have been times when they have flirted with each other, but Li Shimin is unlucky, and he sees that he is forcibly occupied, and he hates it very much. After Xiao Meiniang was forcibly asked to leave by the Turkic emperor, Li Shimin sent Li Jing to lead the army to defeat the Turks and welcome back Xiao Meiniang.

Because Princess Yongjia failed to move the emperor to pardon Zuo Shaoyang's sins, and at the same time found that there was no way to organize a prison escape rescue, she knew that the imperial brother Li Shimin liked Xiao Yunfei's mother Xiao Meiniang very much, so she immediately flew to tell Xiao Yunfei.

At that time, Xiao Yunfei was in Turkic with her mother, Xiao Yunfei immediately told her mother all the reasons, so Xiao Yunfei and Xiao Meiniang rushed back to the capital under the escort of Li Jing.

When Li Shimin saw Xiao Meiniang, the love thread buried in his heart before sprouted and blossomed again, please be the imperial concubine. Xiao Meiniang originally had a good impression of Li Shimin, so she immediately agreed, and told her daughter Xiao Yunfei about her relationship with Zuo Shaoyang, and begged Li Shimin to forgive Zuo Shaoyang.

In the past, the lover in the dream spoke for the first time, Li Shimin had no way to refuse, and he had already cherished Zuo Shaoyang's medical skills, so he was somewhat hesitant to kill Zuo Shaoyang or not, and just gave Xiao Meiniang a favor, but he still wanted to give Zuo Shaoyang a dismissal, and give Du Ruhan's family and the ministers an explanation, until he was sent to the court, and then he ordered the law field to allow the hair to be cut and replaced. saved Zuo Shaoyang's surname.

can keep his surname after the third recital, Zuo Shaoyang is the first person in Datang. It can be seen that this beautiful concubine has the status in Li Shimin's heart.

Zuo Shaoyang arched his hand: "Thank you Niangniang and the two princesses for interceding for Zuo!" ”

Seeing that he still didn't kowtow to thank him, Li Shimin shook his head with a wry smile helplessly, and said, "Zuo Aiqing stepped forward to listen to the seal!" ”

Zuo Shaoyang waved his hand: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for not accepting your reward." ”

Li Shimin's face suddenly sank: "You don't know what official I want to reward you, so you refuse?" ”

"No matter what kind of official it is, even if it's a prince or general, I can't accept it."

"Why?"

"I'm dead, can a dead man be an official?"

Li Shimin was stunned.

Xiao Meiniang snorted and laughed: "Emperor, since he doesn't want to be an official, let him be, this time he escaped from death, it's really pitiful." ”

Li Shimin relied on this beautiful concubine, so he nodded and said, "It's okay, it's okay not to be an official." But there's something that needs to be dealt with first. Zuo Aiqing, now that I have pardoned your capital crime and killed your nemesis Du Jing, Liu Zhenghui also died of illness a few days ago because of your refusal to be treated, now, can you help Liu Zhenghui and Du Jing's family to heal the terminal illness? ”

"Can't!" Zuo Shaoyang shook his head and said.

Li Shimin's face became gloomy again: "Why is this? Could it be that you are really hard-hearted and don't save you when you die? ”

Xiao Meiniang smiled and said: "Your Majesty, he is not a person who cannot be saved when he sees death, he is unwilling to be rescued, there must be his reason." ”

"I just want to hear from him!"

Looking at Li Shimin's blazing eyes, Zuo Shaoyang was not afraid, and raised his head and said: "When I treated Prime Minister Du, I said that his illness could only be used as medicine with a woman's placencap, but he clearly refused at that time, so I didn't treat him. Later, when I went to Quzhou for treatment, Du Jing sent a housekeeper to find me, saying that he could persuade Prime Minister Du to use the afterbirth into medicine to treat the disease, and I only needed to use the afterbirth into the medicine, and I was also eager to save people's hearts, so I believed Du Jing's words and dispensed medicine to him, but I didn't expect him to use this trick to frame me. So much so that Prime Minister Du committed suicide. I was very sad about this incident, but I asked myself, it was purely deceived by others, the original intention was to save people, and I was sentenced to death in order to save people, and I was not convinced. I can't live in this world on a murder charge, so I hope the emperor can confirm my actions and acquit me. Otherwise, since I'm already charged with murder, I don't care about a few more murders, it doesn't matter to me whether they die or not! I will die to be a person who will not be saved when he sees death! ”

"You dare to blackmail me? I can pardon you, or I can send you back to the Dharma! Li Shimin said angrily.

Miao Peilan was originally very afraid to hide behind Zuo Shaoyang, but when she heard this, she felt bad, and subconsciously shook her body, protected Zuo Shaoyang, clenched her fists, and glared angrily at Li Shimin.

Li Shimin didn't look at this girl carefully just now, but when he saw this scene, he was stunned, and looked at Miao Peilan. smiled faintly: "Your concubine is also brave." Girl, what's your name? ”

"My name is Miao Peilan, emperor, if you want to kill my master, you have to kill me first!"

"Lan'er, don't worry! The Emperor will not kill me. Zuo Shaoyang said in a low voice, shook his body and flashed behind Miao Peilan, and said to Emperor Li Shimin: "I'm not trying to coerce, I'm telling the truth." You asked me to treat them, and I agreed, in exchange for your acquittal based on the facts. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had to listen to you. Because, I learned my medical skills by myself, not by you, the emperor, and although you are the emperor, you have no authority to order me to treat someone, because I am no longer your courtier. My own medical skills, I can treat whoever I want, I don't see people I am unhappy, it's as simple as that! ”

No one has ever dared to speak to Li Shimin like this, but although Zuo Shaoyang's words sound very rude, they are also really true, Li Shimin is really angry and funny, but he can't find the words to refute it for a while.

Xiao Meiniang smiled: "Your Majesty, the concubine thinks he is right, and the emperor is also too sad about Prime Minister Du's death, then again, even if there is no such thing, Prime Minister Du refuses to take Du Gongzi's medicine, then he will definitely die, and the imperial doctor will not say it, he will definitely not survive last winter." Talents are rare, Du Gongzi's medical skills are so magical, there will be no one in a thousand years! ”

This sentence said to Li Shimin's heart, Li Shimin approved Zuo Shaoyang's death penalty three times, in fact, he was hesitant, because Zuo Shaoyang's medical skills are too magical, such a talent, the entire Imperial Doctor Department and the Imperial Doctor add up to can't compare, just now he originally wanted to appoint Zuo Shaoyang as the personal imperial doctor, it was out of consideration for the rarity of talents.

Although he was extremely saddened by Du Ruhui's death, and was determined to kill Zuo Shaoyang to avenge Du Ruhui, after nearly a year, his hatred had faded a lot after all, and his appreciation of Zuo Shaoyang's talent began to gradually prevail, and his love for talent had already made him hesitate. Coupled with the intercession between Xiao Meiniang and Princess Yongjia, they decided to pardon Zuo Shaoyang in the end, but they wanted to give him a dismount and let him know what was wrong, until he was sent to the court, and then he ordered to cut his hair and replace his head, wanting to scare him half to death, and he also calculated a bad anger in his heart. Unexpectedly, this fright, Zuo Shaoyang's originally generous and benevolent state of mind was scared into a hard-hearted heart that was soft and hard.

Now in this scene, it is determined that Zuo Shaoyang is not guilty, not only can he save Du Jing and Liu Zhenghui's family, but also win people's hearts and take this world-famous doctor for his own use, the deceased is dead after all, and people cannot be resurrected after death, not to mention, it has been decreed to cut off his hair and replace his head, and the clear-eyed person already knows that he wants to save his surname, so why do you have to care about this crime, Du Ruhui committed suicide and died, not killed by someone, he has already killed a Du Jing, and it can be regarded as an explanation. Why not borrow the slope to get off the donkey, give Xiao Meiniang a face, and please the beauty, which is also good.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin smiled: "Okay! I cherish your abilities, so I decreed that you would not be guilty, and appointed you as my personal imperial physician to accompany me, how about it? ”

Zuo Shaoyang smiled and arched his hand: "Thank you, it's okay to determine that I'm not guilty, as for the personal imperial doctor, it's better to be exempt." I am already a dead man, a lonely ghost, I can stay in the Yama Palace, but I can't stay in the palace. ”

Li Shimin frowned and looked at Xiao Meiniang.

Xiao Meiniang smiled and said to Li Shimin: "Emperor, since Zuo Gongzi has no intention of pursuing a career, there is no need to force him to stay, if he finds Gongzi in the future, Gongzi should not shirk it." ――Right, Zuo Gongzi? ”

Zuo Shaoyang smiled gratefully, nodded and said: "I can not listen to anyone in the world, but Niangniang has a life, Shaoyang dare not obey!" ”

Li Shimin originally wanted Xiao Meiniang to persuade Zuo Shaoyang to stay, but he didn't expect Xiao Meiniang to help Zuo Shaoyang speak and let him not stay, and Zuo Shaoyang was even more desperate, in his eyes, he could ignore the orders of the Tang Emperor, and only said to obey Xiao Meiniang's words, which made Li Shimin very embarrassed.

Xiao Meiniang diverted the topic and asked, "What are Zuo Gongzi's plans in the future?" ”

Zuo Shaoyang held Miao Peilan's hand and said, "I will take my Lan'er, as well as my newly accepted apprentices, to the east and reunite with my family." ”

Princess Yongjia didn't speak until this moment, and then asked curiously: "I haven't heard that you have accepted apprentices, you have been on death row this year, how did you accept apprentices?" ”

"It is Du Ming, the son of Prime Minister Du Ruhui, I have been treating him all the time, he likes medical skills very much, he is very smart, very diligent, and very righteous, not afraid of life and death, very much in line with my heart, not to mention, his father's death, more or less related to me, I feel guilty in my heart, so, I want to teach him well, so that he will become a generation of famous doctors!"
