Chapter 196: Magical Leaves

Croton is a laxative, facing its own disease, what about that leaf?

Zhu Youcheng asked: "If someone takes Croton, can Mr. Yu see it from the pulse?" ”

"Croton is the medicine of the tiger and wolf, let alone me, even an ordinary doctor can feel it from the pulse. {[}”

Wu Xiaojie clearly reminded himself that these two serious illnesses were caused by poisoning, but they were not caused by Croton, so that leaf must have a deep meaning. It seems that we have to start with the leaves.

Zhu Youcheng muttered: "Croton, laxatives, leaves...... Senna! ”

His eyes lit up, and he remembered a Chinese medicine - senna. Senna is an herb from other countries that has a similar effect to croton, but it is not as toxic as croton, and is generally used as a laxative for constipation. Dengzhou is a seaport, presumably the pharmacy should have this medicine stocked. Wu Xiaojie reported to himself that it was best to leave a senna leaf, but he was afraid that someone would tell him, or he was afraid that he would not know this imported herb, so he used croton and leaves to remind himself.

Zhu Youcheng asked: "Mr. Yu, is there senna in the pharmacy in Dengzhou?" ”

"Master Zhu is really well-informed, and he even knows this kind of herbs bought by Fanbang. Yes, the pharmacy in Dengzhou does have senna. Do adults think that senna is the cause of your illness? There is a possibility that senna is a miracle leaf, it can make people diarrhea, but it is not a poison, some people have dry stools, and people who are prone to constipation even take it for a long time. No wonder the adult's pulse was so strange at that time, and there was not even a little problem, because the adult was not sick at all, but just ate senna. ”

"Mr. Yu, this official is a very miscellaneous reader, and I have never heard of honey and seafood eating together, and you will get sick. However, I heard that seafood should not be eaten with sour things. The cases that Mr. Yu has encountered before are probably seafood allergies. Some people can't eat seafood due to physical reasons, and once they eat it, they will feel unwell, and those who are strict will even die. This situation has nothing to do with honey. We went to six people that day. It's not for everyone to eat seafood. So I suspect that we ate senna and in very large doses. ”

Yu Jiayan nodded and said, "My lord, your speculation is very reasonable. At that time, the six of you had a very normal pulse, but you had diarrhea, which is very similar to eating senna. ”

"Does Mr. Yu know senna? Especially its smell. ”

Yu Jiayan's face was triumphant, and he said: "I have been immersed in drugs for many years, no matter what kind of medicinal materials they are. I can recognize it just by my nose. ”

"Please ask Mr. Yu to check my food, I suspect that Li Song's purpose for coming this time is not simple. In order to make the official lie down, the dosage he used must be very large, and Mr. Yu must be easy to find out ......"

When Zhu Youcheng was chattering and reminding, Yu Jiayan raised the teacup on the table and said, "My lord, I found it, it's in this cup of tea of yours." ”

Zhu Youcheng was dumbfounded. How can it be so fast, it deserves to be a miracle doctor.

"The purity is so high. I can't smell it, so it's better not to be a doctor. Lord Zhu guessed correctly, the medicinal effect of senna is very low, even if you eat ten or twenty tablets raw, it is impossible for adults to pull for ten days in a row. I guess they used a lot of senna to make a laxative that was no less effective than croton. This cup of tea. Even if an elephant takes it, it will have to fall, let alone you, an adult. ”

"This Li Song, does he want to rebel?" Zhu Youcheng's teeth clenched, and he was now in a race against time. Because there are many people and more food on Juehua Island, it is impossible to evacuate all at once, evacuate one day earlier, and be safe one day earlier. Li Song used poison to leave him in Dengzhou, what happened? Could it be that he colluded with Jiannu and deliberately left himself here to facilitate the slaves and thieves to grab food and kill people?

Li Song is a second-grade civil official, and he is the highest-ranking civil official in the imperial court. Zhu Yuanzhang is a stingy emperor, after setting the policy of using civil affairs to control the military, he was afraid that the civil officials would sit big, so he abolished the prime minister, so the highest grade of the civil officials was only to the second grade, if you want to go one step further, you can only add the third duke or the three orphans. However, these three princes and three orphans are generally given to the dead, and the living rarely enjoy this kind of treatment.

With such a large-grade civil official, no matter how good Zhu Youcheng is, it is impossible to take him down. Zhu Youcheng squeezed his fists and squeezed them, and finally sat down. Forget it, let's secretly suffer a loss first. It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. He was going to Juehua Island to evacuate the islanders first, and then slowly clean up this Li Song.

Zhu Youcheng put away the tea, this is evidence and cannot be destroyed.

The next day, Zhu Youcheng rushed to the governor's yamen as if nothing had happened.

Li Song was taken aback when he saw him, and even the two walnuts in his hand fell to the ground. Immediately, he forced a smile and said: "Lord Zhu is in good health and radiant, and he can see that the official is stunned." If the official is a woman, he must not marry. ”

"If all women look like Lord Li, Zhu will definitely not marry for life." Zhu Youcheng didn't have the heart to joke with him, and said coldly, "Yesterday, Lord Li asked this official to come to the governor's yamen to discuss the dispatch of troops, and this official came by appointment. ”

Li Song smiled awkwardly: "I have already informed the general soldier of Denglai yesterday to come over early today to discuss, why hasn't he come yet?" ”

As he spoke, he instructed his own soldiers to invite the general soldiers of Denglai, and then asked his subordinates to serve tea.

Zhu Youcheng looked at the exquisite tea set and said: "This official has traveled all over the country, and I have never seen such a beautiful tea set, so please cut my love." ”

Li Song didn't know why, and said with a smile: "Since adults love this kind of teacup so much, then the official will give you a complete set, six teacups, with a teapot, this is the fine porcelain from the official kiln in Jingdezhen." Adults really have good eyesight. ”

"Don't be so troublesome, the official is not greedy, one set is fine."

Saying that, Zhu Youcheng didn't open the lid of the teacup, and directly took the tray with the cup and handed it to a guard. The guard took the cup, did not pour out the tea inside, and put it directly into a small wooden box.

Li Song's color changed slightly, because the cup of tea was not simple, it was added.

Li Song was uneasy in his heart, and he didn't know whether Zhu Youcheng saw that there was a problem with the tea and left it as evidence, or if he was greedy and fell in love with this teacup and took it by skill.

Li Song took the tea set from the hand of the subordinate with his left hand, handed it to the guard holding the wooden box, and said, "How can I give Master Zhu a new set and give gifts to the old one." I, Li Song, have always been generous, and sending an old teacup out, wouldn't it make others laugh at me as an iron rooster? ”

said. He reached out his other hand to pick up the wooden box.

Zhu Youcheng's guards only listened to his orders, how could they let Li Song take the wooden box away. The two pushed and took it, but they refused to let go.

Zhu Youcheng said calmly: "Does Lord Li want to rob it?" If it is spread out, it will have an impact on your official reputation, who will dare to enter your governor's yamen next time? ”

Li Song smiled, and had to retract his hand. He said angrily in his heart, who will rob it. It's clearly you who let go. Why is it that when my teacup is in your hands, it becomes yours, and there is no royal law?

The two sat with big eyes and stared at each other, Li Song was not in the mood to drink tea, and Zhu Youcheng did not dare to drink tea.

After sitting for a while, Li Song couldn't hold his breath anymore, and said to himself: "Why haven't you invited the general soldier yet, I'll send another personal soldier to shout, hum." A general soldier is actually such a big shelf. ”

In fact, no matter how much he waited, he couldn't wait for the general soldier of Denglai. Because Li Song had already hinted to the first pro-soldier to report that he should not go to the chief soldier, just hang around outside. But Zhu Youcheng didn't drink the tea he added, and he couldn't poison Zhu Youcheng, so he had to send a second personal soldier to really find the general soldier of Denglai.

After a while, the general army of Denglai arrived in a hurry. Haven't entered the door yet. He laughed rudely and said, "Is Lord Zhu's illness finally cured?" Great, now we can send troops to save the people. ”

Wait for the commander-in-chief of Denglai to sit down. Zhu Youcheng said: "The emperor's decree, the two of you have already read it. Now the official is going to take 5,000 cavalry across the sea to Juehua Island, let's see how it should be arranged? ”

Denglai General said: "I have a Jianyi, that is, don't take the waterway, go to Liaodong along Route 6." The sea is high and the waves are strong, in case the ship capsizes. There is only one way for a soldier to die. The soldiers of Jinyi Weixi Zhenfu Division are all 6th Army, not the Water Army, and the sea route is not appropriate. In fact, the 6th road from here to Liaodong is also very close, but it is only 1,800 miles, and the adults are led by cavalry. It's like walking 200 miles every day, but I will arrive in Liaodong in ten days, and I will win. ”

The attitude of the general soldier of Denglai was pertinent, and he also had a slight tone of teaching children.

Two hundred miles? Bullying me doesn't understand the military, right? The cavalry traveled only 80 to 100 miles a day, and yes, there were indeed cavalrymen in history who traveled up to 150 to 180 miles a day, but that was a single man with two horses, or a single man with three horses. Like Xizhen Fusi, one person and one horse, where can he run two hundred miles.

Zhu Youcheng didn't argue, and said coldly: "Do you want to change the line set by the emperor?" ”

Li Song said: "Of course not. However, the general will be outside, and the king's order will not be affected. The words of the commander-in-chief make sense, the 6th route is safer than the waterway, and from a strategic point of view, the 6th route is better. ”

"Master Li, if I change to 6 paths, will you help me carry the charge of disobedience? Come on, you write down the paperwork, and I'll immediately change to 6 ways. ”

Where did Li Song dare to write such an instrument, and laughed dryly.

The general soldier of Denglai said: "Since the adults insist on taking the waterway, we can't force it. However, the matter of the waterway is to be decided by the Denglai Marine. Let's listen to the opinion of the deputy chief soldier in charge of the water division. ”

Zhu Youcheng nodded, and Li Song ordered someone to immediately invite the deputy chief soldier of Denglai.

The deputy chief soldier was a middle-aged man with a gloomy face, and when he heard that Zhu Youcheng insisted on taking the waterway, he squeezed out an ugly smile on his face and said: "Lord Zhu is really discerning, the sea route is very dangerous in the eyes of most people, but in fact, the sea route is quite safe." Now except for the Daming sailors, there are no other sailors in the entire Bohai Bay, and even if Jiannu wants to sneak attack, they have to wait for them to learn how to build ships. ”

Li Song and the general soldier of Denglai glared at the deputy general soldier together, and kept glaring at him. Zhu Youcheng looked at it, sneering in his heart, but was silent.

Judging from the conversation just now, the reason why Li Song was poisoned was to prevent him from taking the waterway, although I don't know what the reason is for the time being, but Zhu Youcheng doesn't think that the deputy chief soldier will fight against the governor of Denglai, and he must have a trick behind him. After all, the deputy chief soldier was invited by the governor of Denglai, and he would not invite someone to embarrass himself. (To be continued!)
