Chapter 11: The Cruel Truth
After Weichen took the pulse, he knew that the musk medicine was taken for a long time. has already injured the root, if you take it for a few more months, the queen will be infertile for life. Because the queen used other medicinal materials to replenish her body, otherwise, I was afraid that she would not be able to survive the time when Weichen gave her treatment. After being diagnosed, Weichen pulled the silk from his sleeve and put it in the queen's hand. "Pat the Queen's hand again, she knows what I mean. Take the silk back to the account and check it. Text content: Weichen is grateful for the queen's mother's ginseng and asks for the grace of his mother. The queen's phoenix body is not safe, it is a poisoning disease, please keep the queen quiet. lest they summon trouble.
Queen Mother, you have the poison of musk left in your body, and you should take it in small amounts for a long time, so that you cannot conceive. If taken for another two months, it can lead to lifelong infertility. Please pay special attention to the medicine sent by the hospital and do not take it again. Musk poison hair is manifested by cold limbs, blue face, and coma. Blood in the stool, vomiting blood, deterioration of physical fitness. Wechen made a special tonic pill at home and asked the mother to take it three times a day. Qi and blood will be replenished slowly, and the musk toxin needs to be removed gradually.
The pills were also delivered from the sleeve to the queen's hand.
After reading the words and comparing the physical symptoms, the queen mother believed Weichen. just sat stunned for a while, and muttered: "How is it possible, it won't, it won't be like this...... Why do this to me, why? Then he cried and cried.
Weichen was afraid that she would show her stuffing, so he hurriedly reminded: "The queen mother is sick, please be patient, the painkiller will be fried immediately." ”
The queen mother knew that the trouble was big, so she asked her personal maid to bring pen and paper, saying that she wanted to record the interesting things in yesterday's dream, so that she could share them with the emperor, and also distract her attention and reduce pain. Then he said, "Imperial Doctor Ye, go and bring me the painkillers." ”
After Weichen took the medicine, the queen mother stuffed the paper silk to me, I received it in my sleeve, and went back to the hospital nervously. Pretended to be shocked and reported to Imperial Doctor Ruan, saying that he had checked the pulse of the queen and found that the mother had been poisoned. Imperial Physician Ruan warned me: "Imperial Physician Ye is young, so he is confused, and the queen's phoenix body is only occasionally unwell. If you go to the doctor once, you must have made a mistake, the queen is noble, and you can't give the queen any more treatment in the future. If something goes wrong, but the sin of losing your head will also harm your family, do you understand? ”
When I returned home in the evening, I opened the queen's silk and found that there was a jade pendant inside, with the address of the Yang family in Luoyang written on the silk, and asked me to write a letter to the family and report the situation to the former Yang Xiangguo, saying that only Yang Xiangguo could help her.
Hearing this, Pei Shengyuan found that Imperial Physician Ye probably didn't tell the whole truth, so he asked, "Only one jade pendant?" Doctor Ye, are you tired of being alive? I know everything clearly. ”
Imperial Physician Ye had no choice but to make all the moves: "There is another one, which is for General Zhang." ”
Pei Shengyuan motioned for him to continue.
"It wasn't long before I received two letters asking me to find a way to pass them on to the Queen Mother. said that the queen's personal maid plum blossom is a trustworthy person. ”
After diagnosing the pulse, Weichen never had a chance to see the queen again. I only heard that the queen mother is seriously ill and has not improved for a long time.
Every seven days, Meihua would come to the Tai Hospital, pestering Imperial Doctor Ruan and Imperial Doctor Sun, asking about the queen's illness, or making trouble for a while, threatening the imperial doctor that he could not cure the queen and asking the emperor to treat their crimes. Weichen knew that Meihua had given the queen a decree, and came to check if Yang Xiang or General Zhang had a reply.
On that day, when Meihua was in the hospital, Weichen took advantage of the persuasion and successfully put the letter in the plum blossom cuff. After receiving the letter, Meihua scolded: "Okay, you quacks, the queen's illness is not cured for a long time, why do you want you to be too hospital, waiting for me to ask the emperor to demolish your hospital." ”
During this period, Weichen also made a medicine that would not hurt the human body to induce vomiting blood, and the antidote was also handed over to Meihua.
Three months later, Wechen received another letter and a box of medicine. is still handed over to the plum blossom like this, and the phoenix body of the queen mother is becoming more and more poor as Wei Chen expected, and the vomiting of blood and coma are becoming more and more frequent.
Since then, there has been no further correspondence, and as for the correspondence between the queen mother and Yang Xiang and General Zhang, the content of which is unknown to Weichen.
Finally, I heard the news of the death of the queen mother.
This is the whole process of Weichen's participation, and there is no half-truth, please ask the emperor to see it. ”
Pei Shengyuan only fined Imperial Doctor Ye ten boards. In his opinion, it was the lightest punishment, but it made Taiyi Ye be excluded in Tai Hospital for a long time. Everyone else has heard that the young imperial doctor with the most medical skills has offended the emperor, and he has just been beaten on the board, and the injury is just right, and he has been beaten again, and he will not be able to come out in the future.
Seeing that the wind made the rudder, the imperial physicians called or ridiculed him when he had nothing to do. Imperial Physician Ye didn't pay attention to these either, and only concentrated on studying medical skills.
Pei Shengyuan asked everyone to retreat, he didn't have any thoughts now, he just felt powerless. He believed that Yang Mubai loved him very much, and he thought that when he found her, he would admit his mistakes to her, and compensate her well, and she would forgive her. They can also return to their former sweet and happy lives.
Now, when he heard that Yang Mubai carefully disguised himself in order to escape from him, he deceived him and Zheng Li, and even the secret guards did not find any clues, such a meticulous layout, he got the fake death medicine two months ago, and he could still act with him quietly, and when the locust plague was flooding and he had no energy to deal with her, he faked his death and left the palace.
Right under his nose, for half a year, he didn't even know at all.
It fully shows that Yang Mubai never thought of forgiving him and Zheng Li from the bottom of his heart, let alone returning to the palace. He knew that no matter how hard they tried, they would never be able to return to the sweetness of the beginning. So what, it doesn't matter if Yang Mubai doesn't forgive him, when he finds her, there will be a way to make up for it, right?
Wait, if her illness has been pretended for half a year, then her coma is also pretended. So, once he had a conversation with Zheng Li, did she also know.
At that time, Yang Mubai's illness was helpless, and every time he went to see her, Yang Mubai fell into a coma after saying a word.
There were several times when Zheng Li came to visit Yang Mubai, and he also saw it. After Yang Mubai fell into a coma, they ignored Yang Mubai and chatted beside them.
Once, Zheng Li asked him: "Your Majesty, Yang Xiangguo has resigned, Mu Mu is like this now, what ......?"
Pei Shengyuan knew that she was asking about the queen's position, and then he said: "Zheng Li, don't worry, I have not forgotten your posterior." Now is not the time, it also depends on Mu Mu's situation. ”
Zheng Li hurriedly asked: "She's only afraid of ......" After a pause, she continued: "I really didn't think that it would harm her to such a place." ”
And then there was silence.
……
Yang Mubai rested at the inn for one night, didn't sleep well, and his eyes were swollen. The next day, I was not in high spirits. Yang Cheng proposed to climb the mountain, saying that climbing the mountain could forget the troubles.
Yang Mubai choked and said, "Then I won't go, I don't have any worries." ”
……
……
In the end, after Qiu Yue and Yang Cheng's persuasion, they still went to climb the mountain.
Climbing to the top of the mountain, Yang Mubai felt that it could indeed make people feel happy.
Looking at the densely packed houses at the bottom of the mountain and the hill spreading next to it, the scenery is pleasant. Between this heaven and earth, people instantly become as small as dust.
Yang Mubai shouted a few times, and then said loudly: "It will be Ling Jue to see the mountains at the top"
Ate dry food in the mountains and look everywhere the scenery. After waiting for two pillars of incense, he walked back. This time they decided to take a shortcut and take a small path.
It took a long time to get to the foot of the mountain, which was a small village on the other side of the mountain.
Qiu Yue went to borrow water from them to drink, and then said to Yang Mubai: "It's so poor here, the bowls for drinking water are all broken." Then he took a bowl with a small gap and filled it with water for Yang Mubai to drink. When the villagers heard Qiu Yue's words, they were embarrassed and giggled.
Yang Mubai knocked on Qiu Yue's head, and then walked to the villager's house and found that it was indeed quite broken. Children and adults wear clothes with several patches. The house is clean and tidy.
Then he smiled and asked an eldest sister with a child: "Sister, has life been so hard here?" ”
The eldest sister said, "This was not a locust plague some time ago, and it was not completed. Naturally, it's more bitter. ”
Yang Mubai asked again: "Didn't the government send relief food?" ”
The eldest sister looked at them and said cautiously: "That's not enough, there are many people in the family." Men also have to go up to the mountains to hunt some game to supplement the family. Older children can go to the mountains to find some wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger. ”
Yang Mubai looked at the thin child and couldn't bear it. Take out the money that is in your body, and give it to them. Qiu Yue hurriedly stopped: "Miss, how many can you help like this, there are many here." ”
Yang Mubai saw that there were more than a dozen families nearby, all of whom were very poor.
Yang Mubai said to Qiu Yue: "You are still thoughtful, you still have to give them an average score, not just one family." ”
Qiu Yue is really going to run away, did she mean to average the score? Do you want to say it clearly, you can't give, there are too many people, you can't give so much? It's okay now, it's impossible if the purse is not empty, I can really be angry with her, I really don't know how Chrysanthemum put up with her before.
Then he called the village chief, who was not at home, so he said that when all the men in the village came back, he would give everyone a cent of the money so that they could survive this time.
When it was almost dark, the men of the village returned. Yang Mubai explained the situation, and the village chief said: "If you can come, you will be content, and you don't want money." Reactive power is not punished. Then the village chief asked everyone to bring out the game they had caught and said that they would keep the distinguished guests for dinner.
This is an opportunity to have fun with the people, and Yang Mubai immediately agreed. Qiu Yue and Yang Cheng wanted to go back first, and then go back when it was dark, the road was dangerous. Yang Mubai made a final decision: "I'm hungry, I'll go back after eating." ”
The villagers were very enthusiastic, and there was not much rice in the rice jar, so each family took out some. Cook rice with wild herbs and eat it. The game was also boiled for the most part.
When eating. Several plates full of meat were piled up on Yang Mubai's table, all of which were good meat. Yang Mubai sat at a table with the old people in the village and the children. The children stared at the meat, and their saliva was about to flow out, and then the adults first sandwiched half a bowl of meat for Yang Mubai and each of them, and then sandwiched the meat for the old man and the child, leaving the meat and bones that were not very good, which were eaten by the women and men of the clan.
When Yang Mubai saw this, he felt very uncomfortable. Then ask the child, "Can I eat this meat every day?" ”
The child is the most honest, gulping it in his mouth and saying vaguely: "I haven't eaten it for a long time, and I eat wild vegetable porridge on weekdays." ”
Yang Mubai looked at the fragrant meat in the bowl, and suddenly lost his appetite. I gave the meat clip to the child and ate some rice for myself.
After eating, it was dark, and the villagers kept them for another night, and then they would leave tomorrow.
Yang Mubai refused, it's nothing to walk at night, they all know kung fu, what are you afraid of. Then he said, "We will rush back to the city and have something to do in the evening, so we will not disturb everyone." ”
Then he called the village chief and every man in the village together, and took out all the money on his body: "Just now you said that it is useless, but now that we have dinner, you can accept it." It's been a hard time these days, but everyone insists on persevering. ”
The village chief said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if you are poor, as long as we don't fight, we are all satisfied." ”
Yang Mubai was surprised, so poor, can he still be satisfied? The village chief continued: "Although it is a little poorer now, it is very stable, and the emperor has reduced the tax. Next year's harvest will be good, and life will be better. We peasants do not seek to be rich and rich, but only to live in peace and stability. Unlike before, when mountain bandits were rampant, or conscripted into wars, people often died, and they were worried every day, which was a hard time. ”
Yang Mubai understands that the family and the country are all over the world, and after all, the world must be peaceful and the family can be healthy. Poverty is not terrible, but it is terrible that you can't even sleep peacefully.
Yang Mubai divided all his money, and then hit Qiu Yue and Yang Cheng with his ideas. Qiu Yue refused to obey: "Miss, this is my private money, all of it has been given, and we don't even have any money for carriages and horses when we go back." ”
When Yang Mubai heard the carriage and horses, his eyes lit up, and he said to the village chief: "We have a carriage, and we will let them bring it over, and you can use it when you go to the city to sell game in the future." ”
Qiu Yue felt that her heart was bleeding, she and Yang Mubai must have met each other, otherwise how could they encounter such a disaster.
Yang Mubai grabbed Qiuyue's purse, and then said to Qiuyue: "I'll pay you back twice when I go back, how much do you remember." ”
The village chief repeatedly refused to say that he couldn't ask for it, and Yang Mubai said: "When we go back to the city, we will have money, and the village chief must accept it, otherwise I won't be able to sleep when I go back." ”
The money was all distributed, the carriage was also delivered, and Yang Mubai, Qiu Yue and Zhang Cheng walked back to the city.
The distance is ten miles, and it was fine at first. Because I climbed the mountain today, after walking for a while, my legs were good at beating, and I was so tired that I couldn't do it. Zhang Cheng and Qiuyue have practiced, so naturally they don't feel tired, but Yang Mubai can't. I have only walked two miles, and my legs can't be straightened, so I have to take a break after walking two steps. Looking at Qiu Yue helplessly, she knew that Qiu Yue was the son of the Lian family.
Qiuyue should not be visible, Yang Mubai is tired and wants to rest, they will wait for her.
After walking for three miles, Yang Mubai really couldn't do it, and he couldn't move his legs. At this time, Qiu Yue reluctantly walked to her page, squatted down, and asked Yang Mubai to climb on her back and carry her back.
Qiu Yue said angrily: "Is it okay to succeed in the future?" ”
Yang Mubai said obediently: "Don't dare." ”
