Chapter 36 The Imperial Doctor's Visit
Zhuo Ruoning was frightened outside, and when she returned to the room, she only felt dizzy, she slept without eating anything at night, and she had a fever in the second half of the night, and nightmares came one after another.
For a while, she dreamed that the instrument exploded, and she was swallowed up by the scorching waves, and she could not escape the fire; After a while, she dreamed of grabbing thunderbolts with someone, and the other party was overwhelming, she protected this one and lost that, and finally the crowd dispersed, and she had nothing left in her hand; After a while, I dreamed of marrying Geng Kan, and when I lifted the hijab, I saw a monster with a bloody mouth......
"Go away, don't, don't come over......" Zhuo Ruoning was sweating profusely, and his whole body couldn't stop twitching.
"Nian Nian, wake up!" Someone held her in their arms and kept calling in her ear.
The warm embrace with a familiar smell magically pulled her out of her nightmare. Zhuo Ruoning opened her eyes panting and saw Lin holding her anxiously.
"Wake up, wake up, it's still the imperial doctor's medicine." Jiang's mother almost cried with joy, she wrung a handkerchief from the basin and washed Zhuo Ruoning's face and wiped the sweat on her head, reciting "Amitabha" in her mouth.
A young imperial doctor walked up to the bed and took Zhuo Ruoning's wrist to show her pulse.
When he withdrew his hand, Jiang's mother asked urgently: "Imperial Doctor Tang, how is my girl?" ”
Imperial Doctor Tang's face was solemn: "Miss Zhuo's illness is a sudden onset of deficiency, tsk, young age, emotional overwork, excessive thoughts, accumulation over time, it comes gradually, recuperation may be able to alleviate the symptoms, but to completely cure it, I am afraid it is not easy." ”
Lin looked sad, and only wished that the disease would be transferred to him, so as to alleviate his daughter's pain.
Mother Jiang was anxious: "Imperial Doctor Tang, you have excellent medical skills, there must be a way." ”
Imperial Doctor Tang knew that the explanation was useless, and said vaguely: "The emperor heard that Zhuo Gong's granddaughter is seriously ill, and he is looking for doctors and medicines everywhere but it is not good, so he specially ordered me to come for diagnosis and treatment, and I will naturally do my best." ”
Lin and Jiang's mother hurriedly shouted "Long live the emperor" and "Thank you for the emperor's grace".
"Miss Zhuo is sweaty, so I have to wipe her body with warm water and change into dry clothes."
Jiang's mother responded, Lin touched her daughter's forehead, and said lovingly: "I burned for three days, and I kept shouting nonsense, but I had a nightmare?" ”
Zhuo Ruoning came to her senses, and she nodded in a trance: "I dreamed that Geng Kan became a monster." ”
Lin's expression froze.
Imperial Doctor Tang had heard about the relationship between the two families, and laughed: "The lack of qi is delusional, and it is extremely fascinating. If the qi is insufficient, the yang does not guard the yin, and the god loses its guard, so it is a dream. Miss Zhuo is worried a lot, her emotions are damaged, her internal organs are injured, her essence is consumed, and her soul is uneasy. I'll prescribe two doses of medicine, you eat first. ”
"No, no!" Zhuo Ruoning panicked when she heard that she was going to take medicine, and hurriedly struggled to explain: "It's just a dream, it's okay...... Then I hid in a temple and the monster was scared away. ”
Jiang's mother said "ahh ”
Zhuo Ruoning reminded tentatively: "Could it be a hint that my marriage with Geng Kan is not suitable?" ”
"Nonsense!" Lin reprimanded, "It's just a dream, how can you take it seriously? ”
"But I dreamed that he turned into a monster and wanted to eat me, there must be a saying, right?"
Lin hesitated, and Mother Jiang said: "Since the Bodhisattva drove the monster away, it means that the disaster has been eliminated." ”
"Is that how it is explained?"
Lin asked, "Imperial Doctor Tang, do you have to ask someone to do a ritual when you think about this dream?" ”
Imperial Doctor Tang: "......"
Zhuo Ruoning: "It's better to let me live in the temple for a few years, and it's better to get married." ”
She had seen the sister-in-law who came to the door before, and it was natural that after going to the temple, she could also apply to go out to make a relationship, so that she could walk around justifiably.
"You child, are you sick and confused or what's going on, how can marriage be a child's play? But your dream is really strange, I have to go to Immortal Qiu to ask. ”
The Tang Imperial Doctor was still here, and seeing that the Lin family obviously believed in those warlocks who pretended to be ghosts, his face was a little unbearable, thinking that the Zhuo family was a scholarly family, and the eldest lady was so ignorant that the medicine was not prescribed, and left with the medical box on her back. When he went back, the emperor asked, and he would truthfully report what he had seen and heard in Zhuo's mansion.
Because Zhuo Ruoning refused to take medicine, the disease recovered slowly, and during the recuperation period, an uninvited guest came to the house.
Zheng Guogong's wife sent a post, inviting Zhuo Ruoning to attend the banquet at Zheng Guogong's mansion.
What kind of family is Zheng Guogong's Mansion? Except for Zhuo Ruoning, there should be no one in the entire Dalang Dynasty who doesn't know.
Lin danced to give her popular science: Zheng Guogong Xi Wei, the eldest son of Changshun Wang Xitao, married Yu, is the eldest daughter of Song Guogong Yu Gaojie, and Yu's sister is Zhou Yi Wang Zhengfei; His younger brother Xi Jin, the founding prince of the country, was awarded the crown prince Taibao, and Xi Ruxiang, the daughter of Xi Jin, was the crown princess of the dynasty.
There is a natural gap between the nobles and the ordinary officials, and unless they are related by marriage, there will be no contact on weekdays. Especially a top nobleman like Zheng Guogong's Mansion, the Zhuo family can't climb the ladder, let alone be invited to participate in the banquet in the mansion.
This is a birthday banquet or a Hongmen banquet, Lin can't make up his mind.
In the evening, Zhuo Li came back from the office, and Lin was busy showing him the post.
"Master, what kind of heart do you say this Zheng Guogong Mansion has, that Xi Rong, I have harmed our family many times, and I don't know what tricks I want to play this time."
Zhuo Li was not very worried: "The birthday banquet of the old Duchess of the country, everyone in the court will go to celebrate her birthday, you just have to watch your daughter closely, they dare to mess up the banquet?" If you don't go, you'll let people hold the handle. ”
King Changshun is the king who was crowned after his death, and the original title was the Duke of Rongguo, so everyone still calls his wife the Duchess of Guo.
"Nian Nian is still sick."
"Since you received the post, you can go by yourself and say that the child is not in good health and can't go, which is not a big deal."
"That's all there is to it."
Zhuo Li remembered one thing again: "Sister Li'er is thirteen years old, and she didn't look at others a few years ago, but now that she is out of the filial piety period, you have come to Nanjing again, and you have more snacks for her marriage." ”
How could the Lin family not want to marry Zhuo Ruozhen quickly, so that Geng Kan would not be half-hearted. But when she first arrived, she was not familiar with Mrs. Jingzhong, and she had to be taken out by the second wife to get acquainted with her a few times, so she could pay attention.
"Then I'll ask Niannian, if I can go, I'll bring Sister Li'er."
The Lin family actually didn't want to go, and those who could enter the gate of Zheng Guogong's Mansion were all wealthy nobles, and she would definitely be snubbed if she went. She is nothing in the eyes of those noble ladies, and she can't make friends if she goes, so there is no need to toss.
Moreover, she also scheduled a ceremony on April 15, and if she went to pay homage to her birthday, she would have to postpone it.
Zhuo Ruoning was afraid of taking medicine, and when she saw Lin coming to ask, she pretended to be nothing, and she was sure that her illness had been cured.
