Chapter Ninety-Eight: Medicine Note The cunning merchant king lures the snake out of the hole
The king of Shang returned to his house and held a secret meeting in the library. He stood in front of his desk and wrote, scribbling and splashing ink, and his hands were both ruthless and fast. Looking at the extra-large word "the world" in his eyes, he said leisurely: "You say, is she really pregnant?" β
Wang Wuren, who was kneeling on the soles of his feet, said in a panic: "The little and the little people can't be sure ......."
"No, can, sure, sure?" Song Liancheng threw his pen suddenly. The barrel of the wolf's large pen flew directly to Wang Wuren's nose bone, only to hear the "click", the pen was not broken, and the bridge of the nose was broken.
Wang Wuren only felt a hot stream gurgling down his nasal cavity, and after a while, several drops of bright red nosebleeds were already on his chest, mixed with ink, and bloomed on his court clothes.
He covered his nose and said, "Your Highness, Your Highness, and the ministers don't know why the national teacher suddenly said that...... But the minister is true, he has never diagnosed the pulse of the queen's mother, let alone prescribed medicine! It's really wrong to me! β
"Oh? Interesting. Song Chuyin touched his chin, "So, you were exposed?" Or, you're the queen's ...... now"
"Huh?! No, no! Your Highness, if the villain is unfaithful to His Highness, he is willing to be thundered by five thunders, divided into five horses, and there is no place to bury him when he dies and dies! Wang Wuren kept kowtowing, and his nose bleeds splattered all over the ground.
On the side, Duyou whispered: "Your Highness, he doesn't seem to be lying. β
"What do you think of it?"
"My subordinates do have some clues." Immediately, Duyou spoke in a voice in the ear of the king of Shang that almost no one could hear what he had found in the past few days.
Song Chuyin nodded silently, stared at Wang Wuren, suddenly laughed loudly, and dragged him up from the ground, "Wang Wuren, this king believes in you!" He lowered his voice again, "In this way, you will do an errand for this king." β
"What...... Errand? Wang Wuren was stunned and said: "Small, villain, but by order." β
"Since the national teacher said that you diagnosed the queen, then you must have diagnosed the queen...... As for the prescription you prescribed for the queen, you can write it like this......" Song Chuyin lowered his voice and said the last two crucial words.
"......?!" As soon as Wang Wuren was excited, the nosebleed sprayed out again and landed on the placket of Shang Wang's clothes, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly pressed his nostrils with his hand.
Song Chuyin only smiled, took out a handkerchief from his chest, stuffed it into Wang Wuren's palm, shook his hand, and told him to retreat. He looked at his stumbling back with satisfaction, sneered, and said to Duyou: "Let's wait to see a good show." β
***
Although the huge palace and the East Palace no longer have an owner, its former owner, the deposed crown prince, now King Yu still has subordinates loyal to him, although some of them are not familiar with Song Liancheng himself.
For example, Zhao Geng, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and Yu Zhong, a member of the Ministry of War.
Zhao Geng once practiced the piano in Heming Qiuyue Villa, and was Luo Jueya's protΓ©gΓ©, while Yu Zhong was promoted by Chen General Chen Yingjun, and when Chen's mansion was copied, he was meritorious in "reporting" and kept his official position. When he was despised by everyone as a Zhongshan wolf, only Zhao Geng was on his side.
Back then, when General Chen promoted him, he had already said to him: "If the Chen family is killed, you will endure humiliation and steal your life, and use your body to assist the prince to ascend the throne." β
Over the years, he has never forgotten Chen Yingjun's kindness, nor has he forgotten his oath.
Both of them are loyal ministers, but they have never confessed to Song Liancheng that they are the Yuwang Party, and they are waiting for today.
They have been silently waiting for the best time for revenge, and the time has finally come. Just when the queen's unusual behavior was spread as gossip, Zhao Geng and Yu Zhong sought out Cao Ershan, a close confidant of the Imperial Medical Department, to investigate the matter.
One day, Zhao Geng found the sneaky Wang Wuren, and followed him all the way back to the door of the Imperial Doctor's Office, feeling strange in his heart: "Isn't it just to go back to the place where you are on an errand, why are you so mysterious?" He paced two steps in the doorway, and then walked away briskly.
Wang Wuren entered the medicine room, took out a prescription from his sleeve, looked back and forth twice, and couldn't help but raise his sleeve to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead. In the decoction oven, he was boiling the life-sustaining soup for the saint, and he looked left and right, and threw the paper in his hand into the charcoal fire.
"Hey! What are you doing! Suddenly, someone behind him shouted. Wang Wuren was shocked in his heart, only to see that the person who was a little chubby, bareheaded, and had small eyes, but tried his best to stare at him with wide eyes, shouted again: "What are you doing? β
He didn't care how panicked Wang Wuren waved at him and said, "Don't make a sound!" I'm the Imperial Doctor! β
"You're the Imperial Doctor? Nor is that more important than the Holy Command! Cao Ershan hurriedly took the tongs, took out the medicine prescription that had not been burned out on the stove, and quickly glanced at it.
Wang Wuren was furious: "Presumptuous! Who are you? As he reprimanded, he snatched the half of the charred fragment and crumpled it into a ball.
"The student Cao Ershan, is the twentieth person born by the needle. The doctor once said, 'Tonic is won by taste, it needs to be simmered slowly', and 'fry for a long time to get rid of its ripeness and stay'!
In the past few days, the students occasionally felt the wind and cold, for fear that they would cough and destroy the fire, so they deliberately watched in the corner, and sealed the sea of qi with a needle. You...... Sin deserves to be beheaded! β
After a pause, he added, "What are you burning?" Show me! β
Wang Wuren was shocked and relieved. He sneered: "Cao Ershan? You're a doctor! Is it a new acupuncture student this year? Or is it the last one? Look, even if you show it, you won't understand it! As he spoke, he pulled out the crumpled paper balls.
Cao Ershan took a look, and after a while, he scratched his head: "This...... Is this a calming remedy? Why did you burn it? β
"That's right." Wang Wuren pretended to be proud and said: "The person who took my medicine has already been cured of the disease, so why do you still have a prescription?" Also, how can the man who decocted the holy decoction be done by someone like you? I think you deserve to be beheaded! β
"Yes...... After all, I let you take advantage of the loophole......" Cao Ershan muttered a few words, suddenly shouted, and knelt on the ground: "The imperial doctor ordered to spare his life!" The student is looking for medicine for others, and if the imperial doctor orders it out, the student will even have to burden the senior brother and master! As he spoke, he cried with a handful of snot and tears.
Wang Wuren smiled wryly, "Okay, as long as you don't tell anyone about meeting me today, I won't have seen you before!" β
"Great! Yes, sir! Yes, sir! Cao Ershan kowtowed again and again, and was relieved to see Wang Wuren leave.
That night, Zhao Geng and Yu Zhong got this half of the prescription from Cao Ershan, and Cao Ershan said with certainty: "This is a fetal medicine." β
At the same time, the newcomers in the imperial dining room who entered the palace at the same time as Cao Ershan,ββ also came with extremely reliable news queen's taste suddenly changed. The lady who never likes to eat sour food has to add vinegar to every meal and every dish.
In addition, a few days later, Yu Zhong, who was in the military department, received a very mysterious task, secretly went out of the city to search for pregnant women who were pregnant with Liujia and waited for them to give birth, and wanted to get something on their day of delivery, which was the placenta of the newborn.
And these fresh placentas eventually returned to those two places: the Imperial Dining Room and the Imperial Physician's Office.
Enduring the huge suffering, Yu Zhong said angrily: "We must strike first!" This witch must never be allowed to be so lawless again! Brother Geng, how do you think we are doing now? β
"This game is a critical situation, His Royal Highness King Yu is decisive and cannot be dragged down...... Zhao Geng, who was a little calm, muttered: "You and I are weak, so it is better to seek foreign aid." β
Yu Zhongdao: "The owner of the village is upright, and Quezun is also straightforward......
Zhao Geng shook his head, "Although the people in Qinmen abide by their trustworthiness and have the world in mind, Qinmen has rules with the imperial court, and Qinmen will never interfere in the affairs of the temple unless it is absolutely necessary." Besides, the saint is ill, even if we have the support of the Qinmen, we are still unknown. β
"That ......"
"Now I can only take a risk and go to him. Only by joining forces with him can the queen be deposed. β
Yu Zhong was stunned for a moment, "He? Is this possible? β
