Zuo Shaoyang said: "Thank you for reminding me, from the first day I became an official, I told myself that I am just a medical officer, just an official who treats diseases and saves people, not an official who fights for power and profit, what I want to do is only to treat diseases and save people." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoI think that as long as I grasp this direction, I should not get caught up in officialdom. ”

"Good!" Xiao Yunfei praised, "It's best if you can understand it in your heart, I think that as long as you have a normal heart, it is still easy to be a medical officer, and you can be very happy." ”

"That's exactly what I said. But really thank you for the reminder, I will pay more attention in the future. ”

"Then you'd better not treat him, right?"

Zuo Shaoyang was stunned: "Why?" ”

"Uh......, it's always bad to get too close to them."

"In my eyes, there are only patients, and whoever comes to me for treatment, I will treat them."

Xiao Yunfei glanced at him, bit his lip lightly, and said softly: "Don't say it, let's go down first!" ”

With that, he reached out and grabbed his arm, and floated down the cliff.

Zuo Shaoyang stood on the ground, looked back at the cliff just now, although he said just now that he would grasp the direction, but many things are indeed involuntary, whether he can finally grasp the direction, we have to wait and see.

―――――――――――――――――――― Peng Bing's mansion.

Peng Bing's waist was arched like a boiled shrimp, and his violent coughing and constant asthma barely made it impossible for him to catch his breath.

The craftsman in charge of the construction of Zuo Shaoyang's medicine garden in the Ministry of Industry has been here for a long time, and he has not had a chance to speak, because Peng Bing's asthma and cough cannot be suppressed at all.

The two imperial doctors stood beside him, crying and helpless, and Peng Bing's maid kept stroking his chest for him to make him feel better.

Finally, Peng Bing's cough stopped a little, and he lay on the table with one hand, as if it could be extinguished at any time like a flickering wind candle. He gasped for a while before waving his hand to let the two imperial doctors step down. Rolling his eyes with big bubbles, he looked at the craftsman.

The craftsman was busy making a long story short, bowed down and said: "Back to the eldest lord, Lord Zuo's medicine garden land preparation work has been completed, and the demolition agreement has been signed, and it will cost ...... in total."

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......" interrupted the craftsman's words with another uncontrollable violent cough.

The craftsman had to bow down and wait.

Peng Bing seemed to be impatient, kept coughing violently, and said intermittently: "No matter how much money ......, cough cough cough ......, it's okay, snor......t, snort......, snort ”

"Yes, yes!" The craftsman agreed, "The small one has organized craftsmen to work overnight, and it is expected to be completed within a month." ”

"Quick! Just be fast! - Lord Zuo......, are you back? Ahem"

The maid hurriedly whispered: "Not yet, I said that I might not arrive until the afternoon." ”

"As soon as he comes, ......, immediately, cough ......, immediately let him come to ......, come to see me, cough cough cough ......"

"Yes, yes!" The maid agreed.

Peng Bing waved his hand, and the craftsman hurriedly bowed and retreated.

After a short time, the porter hurriedly came in and bowed down to report: "Old lady Qiqi, Gonggong Luo is here to announce the emperor's message!" ”

Peng Bing hurriedly coughed and stood up, and with the support of the maid, he walked to the door with difficulty, and at this time, a eunuch walked over quickly with a few internal guards. This eunuch's surname is Luo, and he is the personal eunuch next to Emperor Li Shimin. As soon as Peng Bing saw him, his heart suddenly cooled, I'm afraid that the emperor has already issued an order to let him retire from illness, right?

The more nervous he became, the more intense the cough and asthma became, snorting like pulling bellows, sandwiched with a series of irrepressible coughs.

Father-in-law Luo didn't look at him, and strode into the lobby, one of which stopped: "The emperor has decreed, and Peng Bing, the servant of the ministry, will meet him immediately!" ”

Although he didn't announce on the spot that he would retire from his illness, when he was going to see the emperor now, he must be that the emperor was going to check his condition, and now like this, the emperor was afraid that he would announce his retirement on the spot. Peng Bing listened to the holy oracle, like five thunderbolts, and stayed on the spot, but the violent cough still couldn't help but gush out one after another.

Father-in-law Luo and Peng Bing were very familiar with him, and when he saw him like this, he was not only compassionate, but after reading the emperor's edict, he came over to look at him, and waited for him to stop coughing for a while, and then said: "Master Peng, you are sick ......."

Peng Bing coughed and asked in a low voice: "Father-in-law Luo, can you tell me why the emperor has summoned his humble position to the palace at this time?" ”

"It's not lice on a bald head, it's an obvious thing!" Father-in-law Luo sighed and said: "We are not outsiders anymore, our family will leak the bottom to you, - Lord Peng, the emperor this time you entered the palace to face the saint, is to see how your illness is, you have been sick for many years, and you have reached the age of Zhishi, if your condition does not improve, the emperor will let you retire." The replacements are ready! ”

"Yes, who is it?" Peng Bing's heart was even colder and asked.

"Criminal Department Langzhong Chai Baichuan."

Peng Bing was taken aback in his heart, this Chai Baichuan is the deputy of Liu Zhenghui, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and also his henchman, and he used him to replace himself, in fact, he was the person who installed Liu Zhenghui of the Criminal Department in Du Yan's ministry. Although Liu Zhenghui and Du Yan are not rivals, they are competitors, both are powerful figures in the court, and they are both powerful ministers who are deeply valued by the emperor Li Shimin. But I don't know if this arrangement was Li Shimin's idea or Liu Zhenghui's idea. In any case, it is a disaster for him Peng Bing, and if so, it will also mean the end of his political life.

Peng Bing's head was spinning rapidly while coughing, and now he had to fight to the death, coughing and panting: "Father-in-law, please wait for a while, cough cough, I have recently got an interesting thing, let my father-in-law appreciate it." cough cough cough ......"

Father-in-law Luo naturally knew that Peng Bing was still appreciating the treasure like this, so he naturally had another deep meaning, and he didn't break it, and said with a smile: "Okay, our family is fortunate to take a look at the treasures collected by adults, and it is good to open our eyes." ”

Peng Bing arched his hand and whispered a few words to a maid beside him, and the maid agreed and hurried to the back hall.

Gonggong Luo sat down, intentionally or unintentionally, talking about the removal of ministers after the emperor ascended the throne, many of whom were ineffective for a long time and could not perform their duties and were ordered to retire by the emperor. This added to the panic in Peng Bing's heart, and he desperately tried to suppress his asthma and cough, but the more anxious he was, the more he couldn't suppress it, and he almost collapsed on the spot.

Finally, a middle-aged woman came out of the back hall, this woman was plump, holding a towering black cloud bun, with a double-winged jade flower ornament on the top of her head and a phoenix crown, several flower combs pinned to the right forehead and side of her head, a green narrow sleeve short undergarment, lined with jade white dark flower gauze, and a thin silk smoky green veil on both shoulders, like a rainbow hanging on the body, wearing a golden mandarin duck full skirt, the cuffs and skirts are embroidered with golden flying phoenix patterns, and a ribbon is tied to the waist. It looks a bit like a gorgeous dress over a water tank.

This plump woman was Peng Bing's wife, and she came out with a black lacquer and gold brocade box in her hand, and when she saw Luo's father-in-law, she grinned, and when she heard her husband coughing and wheezing violently, she hurriedly put her smile away, walked over, and put the box on the table. It opened with a click.

A golden light suddenly illuminated the wrinkled old face of Grandpa Luo next to him, and Grandpa Luo's eyes were full of surprise at the golden thing in the box, but it was a Buddha statue made of golden pure gold!

This Buddha statue is very exquisite, lifelike, even the folds of the Zen clothes on the body are meticulous, this large piece of gold alone is worth a lot of money, not to mention the shaping process, but also make the value of this gold several times.

Father-in-law Luo stretched out his hands and carefully took out the golden Buddha from the box, rubbing it, his cloudy eyes were full of love, as if he was caressing his newborn son.

This eunuch can't be humane, he has no interest in women, and he can't be an official, so he loves yellow and white things more than ordinary people.

Peng Bing coughed and gasped: "If my father-in-law likes it, how about giving this thing to my father-in-law?" cough cough cough ......"

Father-in-law Luo naturally knew the truth of taking people short and eating people's soft mouths, so he smiled and shook his head: "My lord, we can't want this thing." ”

Peng Bing had never given anything to this father-in-law Luo before, and he had never refused, but now when he heard him refuse, he felt even more cold, and when he was about to speak, he was interrupted by a violent cough.

Mrs. Peng hurriedly smiled and said: "Father-in-law Luo, this is our master's heart, my lord's illness has made my father-in-law worry a lot, just a little thanks." As you said just now, we are not outsiders, so we don't need to be polite. ”

Father-in-law Luo shook his head and said: "It's not our family's politeness, the so-called merit is not rewarded, the meaning of Lord Peng's reward, our family understands in our hearts, it is to let our family say a few kind words for the Lord in front of the emperor, so that the emperor can dispel the idea of ordering Lord Peng to retire from illness." This, to be honest, can't be done by our family. Today's emperor is no better than Emperor Gaozu, he is a person with ideas, and people around him are not allowed to talk about the government and make irresponsible remarks. Therefore, this baby is only hot in our family, but we dare not accept it. ”

Peng Bing coughed and said in a low voice: "I don't dare to hope that Father-in-law Luo will help the emperor dispel this idea, and I also know that with my current body, it is really difficult to be qualified for the position of servant of the ministry." ”

Father-in-law Luo said: "Since it's not this intention, but I don't know what the adults want our family to do?" ”

"I just ask the lord to let the emperor give him another three days, and after three days, he will go to face the saint again."

Grandpa Luo's face widened, and he smiled: "Delay it for three days?" Why is that? Could it be that in these three days, adults will be able to cure you of this disease? We can remind the adults that the emperor is wise and decisive, unless the adults recover from illness, otherwise, I am afraid that the adults can only retire due to illness this time, and they must not be lucky, and take some side doors, but make the emperor angry, then it is not good! ”

"Humble and provincial. Father-in-law, please rest assured, the lowly position makes the father-in-law think of postponing the emperor for three days, which is to cure the disease of lowly duty. ”

"Oh?" Father-in-law Luo showed a look of surprise on his face: "My lord, this disease has been ineffective for hundreds of years, even Doctor Sun has seen it, but it can't be cured, but this time I want to be cured, could it be that my lord has met the immortals?" ”
