Liancheng lowered his eyes and looked at the doctor who was kneeling on the ground with a cold sweat on his face, waved his hand, and said, "You continue." ”

"Yes." Dr. Xu continued: "At that time, my father was dismissed and demoted and returned home, asking the three of us brothers to stop practicing medicine in the market, but at that time, we had become a well-known doctor in the village, so we had no choice but to close the shop and no longer make a living. ’

When Dr. Xu said this, he looked up with some concern and secretly glanced at Liancheng's face, and saw that Liancheng's expression was as usual, so he continued to say: "But later, a plague suddenly swept through more than ten nearby villages, and every day new patients came to the door of our closed shop, knocking on our storefront and begging us for help. The hearts of the doctors' parents are all villagers, where can they watch the villagers die? ’

"Two days later, my father decided not to pay attention to His Majesty's will and save people first, so we three brothers accompanied my father and wandered around in the midst of the plague, boiling medicine and seeing a doctor. From the plague to the plague and finally leaving, our Xu family did not take a penny from everyone, and my father also became ill because of this plague, and soon after the plague was cured, he drove to the west. ”

Hearing Dr. Xu talk about these things, Liancheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked a little uncomfortable.

He glanced at Ning Yi, then at the other imperial doctors, and said, "Is this thing true?" ”

"What happened before is indeed true, but what happened after Imperial Doctor Xu was exiled, I don't know." The group of imperial doctors didn't climb and bite people indiscriminately, which still made Liancheng more pleased.

Ning Yi's eyes, who were staying on the side, suddenly lit up: "Of those villages that were infected with the plague at that time, was there a village that was Ningjia Village?" ”

Doctor Xu was stunned, then locked his eyebrows and thought for a while, before he nodded and said, "Yes, the epidemic in Ningjia Village is very serious, and almost all the people in the village, regardless of men, women, and children, have contracted the plague. ”

When Ning Yi heard this, he lifted his robe and knelt down directly: "Engong, please accept Ning Yi's worship." ”

What this means is self-evident.

Lian Cheng looked at Ning Yi and asked, "It seems that at that time, such a thing did indeed happen. ”

"Yes, Ningjia Village was very badly affected at that time, and my grandfather was also seriously ill at that time, if it wasn't for Engong's family, our family would have died long ago." Ning Yi said, his eyes full of gratitude to Dr. Xu: 'Unexpectedly, Dr. Xu, you and your father saved our entire Ningjia Village,'

"Healers help the world, this is the responsibility of us who practice medicine, so why should you be grateful?" Dr. Xu waved his hand and said, "Besides, it's just the past, and I don't need to mention it now." ’

Dr. Xu's noble demeanor and open-minded nature can be undoubtedly revealed from these few words.

Lian Cheng bit his lower lip, as if he was thinking about something, and after a while, he asked, "So, what do you have to defend when your father killed the first empress?" ”

"There is no excuse, but it is indeed my father's fault." Dr. Xu shook his head, but he didn't defend himself at all, but stopped the matter directly.

After hearing this, Liancheng couldn't help but feel a little strange: "You mean, you did kill the first queen in the first place?" ”

When Liancheng said this, his tone was already low.

Dr. Xu nodded and said, "Yes, smallpox was brought into the palace by my father and he didn't find it at the beginning, if my father paid attention to it himself, he would definitely find that his clothes were also stained with smallpox." ”

Doctor Xu's words, Liancheng didn't know the inside story, so he naturally believed it, but if Emperor Xi was awake now, things would be a different situation.

Emperor Xi remembered clearly that the smallpox virus was brought in by Dijiang, and this person was not Imperial Doctor Xu.

It's a pity that the only person in the know is still having a high fever and hasn't woken up yet, and it's just whimsical to expect her to confront her.

"In that case, if I still want to hold your Xu family responsible, will you also admit it?" Lian Cheng knocked on the table and asked slowly.

Dr. Xu nodded: "Yes." ”

Liancheng opened his mouth, and was about to open his mouth to send down Dr. Xu, but Ning Yi had already knelt down: "Your Majesty, even if Dr. Xu's family is at fault, now the matter has passed, Dr. Xu and their family don't know how many people there are for a long time, Your Majesty, please let Dr. Xu go." ”

Ning Yi said, and kowtowed three times very sincerely, and when he kowtowed his head, he could hear the sound of stewing, and when Liancheng saw this, his brows frowned: "You get up,"

"Your Majesty, please take it lightly!" Ning Yi shook his head, refusing to stand up even if he died. After the three heads were knocked over, blood appeared on Ning Yi's forehead.

Lian Cheng sighed, and after making a gesture for the imperial doctor on the side to help Ning Yi up, he said unhurriedly: "When did I say that I would deal with Doctor Xu?" ’

"Then you ...... just now" Ning Yi was stunned on the spot.

"I always have to know a whole thing about this, right? Since Dr. Xu is here, I always have to ask what to ask. But when asked, I didn't say that I wanted to deal with Dr. Xu. So many lives were reported by Dr. Xu's family, which is a great achievement. ”

When Liancheng said this, he smiled, stretched out his hand and said, "Doctor Xu, please get up first."

"Your Majesty, my father's murder of the former queen is an unforgivable sin." Dr. Xu was still kneeling on the ground, and he didn't mean to get up at all.

Liancheng waved his hand, stood up by himself, and reached out to help Dr. Xu up: "I know, but so what? The death of the first queen is indeed related to smallpox, but your father did not deliberately hurt the first queen, and your father will definitely not want to teach you if you have a spirit in the sky. Besides, if your father really wanted to dispose of your father, he wouldn't let him go home, would he? ’

Lian Cheng is Lian Heng's son in the end, and he understands Lian Heng's thoughts quite thoroughly.

As a father, Lian Heng has already let people go, how can he settle accounts after the autumn and go to the trouble of the Xu family?

Hearing Lian Cheng say this, Ning Yi and Doctor Xu suddenly showed smiles on their faces, especially Ning Yi, and even laughed: "Your Majesty is Mingjun, no wonder the county lord's sister likes you and is willing to accompany you!" ”

Seeing that Ning Yi was open-mouthed, Lian Cheng couldn't help but sigh and said, "Okay Ning Yi, don't look at what kind of occasion this is, can you say whatever you want?" ”

Ning Yi smiled and said, "I'm happy, Your Majesty is in the wall, and it will definitely get better and better." ’

This sentence is unintentional to the person who would rather say it, but when Liancheng listens to it, it is the listener's intention.
