Chapter 13 Borrowing Books
As soon as the matter of the officials asking for sick leave came out, Li Xuan sent a group of doctors from the Tai Hospital to the sick officials' mansion on the second day.
"Old, sir! Doctor Cao from Tai Hospital is almost here! The servant of Xu Dede, the servant of the ministry, stumbled in from outside the door, and one of them stumbled unsteadily on the threshold and snorted.
Xu Dede, who was eating breakfast, didn't swallow a mouthful of white porridge and squirted out.
He choked a few times and took a breath: "Imperial Doctor Cao?!" Why did Imperial Doctor Cao come? ”
"I heard from my father-in-law who passed the word first, it was His Majesty's will early this morning...... Your Majesty is virtuous and loves his ministers, and when he heard that his ministers were in poor health, he was anxious and anxious, and the doctors from the Imperial Hospital were appointed to visit him for treatment......"
The servant rubbed his chin and said, "Originally, you were supposed to greet you, master, but the father-in-law said that you were not in good health and couldn't work out anymore, so he passed the word and left." ”
Xu Dede had rice sticking to his beard, looking panicked and looking around.
His wife said strangely: "Master, what's the matter?" It's a good thing that the doctor comes to see the doctor, haven't you had a headache lately? It just so happens that I can't sleep well all the time, so when the time comes, I take the opportunity to ask for a sleep aid ......"
"Sleep aid?! Do you still want to sleep?! The man was so anxious that he almost lifted the table, "After this Imperial Doctor Cao came, you and I could almost not wake up!" ”
Mrs. Xu was puzzled, but vaguely frightened: "Master, did you commit something big?" I've never seen you so restless on weekdays......"
"Don't ask." Xu Dede wiped his mouth and pointed at the servant whose chin was injured, "You go and find a bigger stone for me, master." ”
Two hours later, Imperial Physician Cao came out of the Minister's Mansion and returned to the palace to report his illness.
"Back to Your Majesty, Xu Shilang's headache is no longer a big problem, it's just ......" He tried to organize his words, trying to make his words sound tactful.
Li Xuan sat in the study of the palace, holding his cheek with one hand and flipping through the folds with the other: "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
"Xu Shilang's headache is not a big deal...... It's just that there might be something wrong with this brain......"
"Oh?"
"When the minister first entered Shilang's mansion, he saw Xu Shilang's face covered with blood, and he called out to his face with a stone, and he couldn't stop it." Imperial Physician Cao's brows were furrowed, and his face was solemn, "The minister's medical skills are shallow, and he hasn't studied much about the diseases in the brain...... Or ask Imperial Doctor Liu to diagnose and treat him again......"
Li Xuan got up and waved his hand: "No need to treat it, since you are crazy like this, let's tie it up first...... Save yourself from dying. ”
"This method is good, but after all, it is a court official, if you don't ...... ......"
"Doesn't that seem like I'm too ruthless?" The man turned sideways and turned his head slightly to look at him.
"The minister didn't mean that......" Imperial Physician Cao lowered his head, but his body was still straight.
Li Xuan sighed and shook his head: "It's not that I don't feel sorry for Xu Dede, it's just that there were three or four imperial doctors who visited the hospital before you, and the officials they treated all showed symptoms of madness......"
"His stoning on the head was considered a mild illness, and he even climbed to the roof and jumped down, and now he is half broken...... No matter how superb Doctor Liu's medical skills are, he can't treat so many people. ”
Looking at the emperor's heartbroken appearance, Imperial Physician Cao was also surprised: "Your Majesty! I'm afraid that such a madness will be contagious, right?! Otherwise, how could so many officials get it all at once? Chen felt that it was better to gather them together for isolation and treatment, so as to reduce the infection, and secondly, there was no need for Imperial Doctor Liu to drive back and run away, and he was tired. ”
The Imperial Physician Cao enthusiastically formulated a treatment plan, and Li Xuan also pushed the boat to "isolate" the officials who had "madness" into a private house.
One person in one room, eating, drinking, and Lazar are all served, except that they can't go out, everything is as usual.
The weak-hearted officials wondered if they were too nervous.
Maybe it was not the emperor's people who took the account page?
……
It is said that this Zeng chrysanthemum came to the palace again this day.
After the eunuch reported it, he brought her in.
Miao Miaomiao was laying out a large piece of paper on the desk at this time, and the paper was full of circles and forks.
Zeng Juhua saw it and was quite interested, put the vegetable basket aside, rubbed her hands and stepped forward: "What are you painting?" Do you play backgammon? ”
The girl held the brush in her hand and held her cheek, and drew a horizontal line on her white face.
She slammed her forehead against the table and happened to imprint a cross on her head: "I can't think of it......"
She couldn't even figure out what this meant......
She checked the names of those suspected officials one by one, and did not find any pattern.
It can be seen that this thing can only be found in the keybook.
But where is the keybook?
"If you can't think of it, don't think about it." Zeng Juhua walked back and opened her vegetable basket and took out a box of pastries, "Boss Xu from the Star Picking Building asked me to send you some pastries." ”
"Boss Xu?" Miao Miaomiao was very surprised, it was rare that this Xu Jiu was still thinking about her!
This friend deserves to be a deep friend!
Just as she opened the box and picked up the pastries to eat, Zeng Juhua took out the album below and flipped through it.
"Oops...... This book is so good, I'll find Xia Chang to borrow the second volume later......"
"Are you looking for Xia Chang to borrow a book?"
"Yes, she borrowed this book from me last time...... Don't you know? ”
"Show me again." Miao Miaomiao took the book from her hand and looked through it, but she didn't see anything else special.
Could it be that she is overthinking?
"This book is really good, why don't I borrow it with you," the girl glanced at the box ......of pastries, "Bring this to Xia Changzai, how can anyone visit empty-handed?" ”
The two of them arrived in the palace where Xia Chang was in this way, and the maid asked them to wait for a while, while Xia Chang was freshening up.
Zeng Juhua held the teacup in both hands, and her body leaned slightly towards Miao Miaomiao: "The lady in the palace is exquisite, and she has to wash her face and comb her hair whenever she sees someone." ”
Miao Miaomiao wiped the ink traces that were still on her face, and pouted: "I have nothing to do all day long, of course I have to wash and wash more......"
Wait for two cups of tea to cool.
This Xia Changzai finally came out slowly.
Miao Miaomiao covered her mouth and yawned, but it was calculated, and if they came again, they would have lunch here.
Maybe they just didn't want to keep her for lunch, so they came out early, otherwise they would have to wash up for a while.
After the two saluted, they immediately explained their intentions, Zeng Juhua lowered her eyebrows and sent the pastry box forward: "Niangniang, this is the pastry of Xinglou, give Niangniang a fresh taste." ”
Xia Changzai glanced at the food box, and the personal palace maid beside him immediately said: "Since it is a thought, then I will accept it, the books that the two of you want to borrow are on the shelf, and you can take it yourself." ”
Since Xia Chang came back there, Miao Miaomiao's thoughts have been disturbed by her.
But my brain was a mess, and I couldn't straighten it out.
Zeng Juhua couldn't wait to open the album and start reading, and suddenly fell out of the page of a piece of paper.
