Chapter 5 The Emperor is seriously ill
Above the palace not far away, the sky was covered with dark clouds, shrouding the entire palace in a gloomy atmosphere, and in the Wanhe Palace, where people came and went, a group of imperial doctors knelt.
"Quacks! You quacks! The Empress Dowager, dressed in gorgeous clothes, stood in the Wanhe Palace, pointing at the imperial doctors in front of her and scolding angrily.
"You can't even diagnose the emperor's illness, what's the use of mourning your family and raising your group of waste! Come on, drag them all out to the mourning family and behead them! ”
"Don't! Queen Mother, spare your life, the old minister really tried his best! ”
"The Queen Mother will spare us, the emperor's illness is really tricky, please give us some more time!"
"I beg the Queen Mother to open up! The old ministers have served the royal family for most of their lives, and even if they have no merit, they have hard work! ”
A group of imperial physicians knelt on the ground, crying loudly regardless of their image, and when the palace guards stepped forward, they were exhausted and tried to break free from their grasps.
It's a pity that the guards don't eat rice, and they are afraid that if they don't notice for a while, the head on their necks will be moved, so they don't have the slightest pity for the imperial doctors in their hands.
Just when the imperial doctors were about to be dragged out of the hall by the guards, the prince dressed in yellow hurriedly rushed over: "The imperial grandmother is angry! ”
I saw that the prince was walking and glared at the chief eunuch, who hurriedly stopped a group of guards.
"Prince? What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in charge of your father's affairs in the court? ”
"Back to the emperor's grandmother, the early dynasty has just ended, and the grandson is worried about his father's health, so after the early dynasty, he rushed to Wanhe Hall as soon as possible, wanting to visit his father."
"Humph! As soon as you mention this, the mourning family will be angry, prince, look at this group of quacks, the emperor has been sick in bed for a month, this group of quacks can't even diagnose the cause of his illness, the mourning family will drag them out and behead them now, in order to warn the officials, I Dali Dynasty does not raise waste! ”
"Imperial grandmother, please calm your anger, my grandson feels that this matter must not be impulsive, now that my father is seriously ill, it is the time of crisis in my Dali Dynasty, and it is also the time when some treacherous villains want to take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble. The more times like this, the more we must be cautious, and we must not be caught by people with good intentions and fall into the tongue of hundreds of officials! ”
The queen mother, who was originally resentful, slowly eased up, as if she felt that what the prince said was very reasonable, her face also faded a little impatiently, she breathed a sigh of relief, and straightened her waist again.
When the crown prince saw the queen mother's reaction, he knew that she had listened to his words, and turned his head to the chief eunuch with a look, and the guards retreated to the sides.
"Imperial grandmother, these imperial doctors in the palace are the best Lang Zhong in our Dali Dynasty, and they are carefully selected by the father and emperor from tens of thousands of Lang Zhong, so Sun Er implores the imperial grandmother to give them a little more time, I believe that after today's imperial grandmother's admonition, they will definitely work harder!"
After hearing this, a group of imperial doctors hurriedly agreed: "What the prince said is right, the old ministers will definitely do their best to diagnose the cause of the emperor's illness and make their own contributions to the emperor's early recovery!" ”
The queen mother looked at them, rolled her eyes unhappily, and then raised her hand and rubbed her temples: "Okay, for the sake of the prince, the mourning family will let you go for the time being."
But! Remember to the mourning family that the mourning family can let you go today and tomorrow, but the mourning family is not a horse!
Give you another three days, if the emperor's condition does not improve, then you will wait to be raided by the mourning family! ”
After speaking, he picked up the teacup at hand and threw it at a group of imperial doctors, the imperial doctors were so frightened that they trembled, and the imperial doctors who were smashed did not dare to say anything, so they could only consider themselves unlucky and carry it stubbornly.
"Okay, why don't you go to the emperor's bed and guard the mourning family!"
A group of imperial doctors hurriedly got up and walked towards the inner hall in a panic, not daring to delay at all.
"Hey!" The Empress Dowager sighed: "Prince, can you still handle the affairs of the court?" ”
"Back to the emperor's grandmother, thanks to Prime Minister Gu's help this month, there are a lot of things that Prime Minister Gu doesn't understand, and Prime Minister Gu helped his grandson deal with them, so my grandson also thinks he can handle it."
"Hmm~" The Queen Mother nodded: "This old Gu, it is still used at a critical time, otherwise, your father will not keep him forever." ”
"Imperial grandmother, you don't have to worry too much, my father is blessed by Lord Yangming, I believe that my father will be able to tide over this difficult time!"
"Well~ Okay, prince, you can also go to the inner hall to see your father, maybe he knows that you can go to see him, and you can be a little sober."
"Yes, Imperial Grandmother, grandson will go over!"
As soon as the prince stood up, a red-clothed guard ran in from outside the hall, and with a "bang", knelt in the hall.
"The queen mother, the crown prince, there are two Langzhong outside, saying that they can diagnose the emperor's illness!"
"What? Two of you? ”
The queen mother and the crown prince were surprised to say in unison, they searched for Lang Zhong for a month, in the first few days, there were countless Lang Zhong who entered the palace to apply, but they were all incapable bastards, after they were all put in prison, no Lang Zhong dared to enter the palace to apply.
I didn't expect that after so many days, it would suddenly appear, and there were two of them, the queen mother and the crown prince were a little overjoyed, and after looking at each other, they hurriedly said to the guards: "Let them come in!" ”
The red-clothed guard hurriedly ran out, and a moment later, he led two men in.
A man with a slightly bloated figure, a beard, and an old medicine box on his back, smiled a little deliberately when he saw the Queen Mother and the Crown Prince, as if he were old fritters who had been in the mall for a long time.
The other man, dressed in white, holding a folding fan in his right hand, is tall and has a good face, and a slight smile makes people feel like a spring breeze.
After seeing the appearance of the two, the queen mother and the crown prince glanced at each other again, reading the dissatisfaction in each other's eyes, originally, they thought that the person who came this time must have some real skills, but this look, good guy, the current bastard can't even dress up?
The crown prince said in a deep voice: "Do you know that if we can't diagnose the cause of the emperor's illness and can't cure the emperor's illness, we will put you in prison!" ”
The old fritter laughed and held his hand at the two: "Back to the queen mother, the prince, the old husband's surname is Lin, the name is Zhongxian, since he can read and write, he began to go out with the master to see a doctor, and the patients who have been cured are not tens of thousands, but also thousands, whether the person next to me is really capable, I don't know, but I, I am sure to be able to cure the emperor's illness!" ”
The queen mother's face is cold, hum! Arrogant! Turning his head to look at the man in white, he saw that the man did not react, but still smiled.
"Back to the Queen Mother and the Crown Prince, in the next month, I would have accepted this challenge, if I can't cure the emperor, then I am willing to be punished."
"Hahaha!" The Queen Mother laughed a few times: "Okay, grandson, let's go, let's see with our own eyes whether these two people are miracle doctors or quacks!" ”
A group of people walked into the inner hall in a majestic manner, and after the imperial doctors in the inner hall saw the two faces, they hurriedly retreated to the sides, and began to think about each other.
Some people are worried that the god invited from outside will heal the emperor and smash their own jobs, while some people hope that Lang Zhong who is found outside can cure the emperor, so as not to move their heads.
However, no matter what their thoughts were, they couldn't stop the two men from walking in front of the emperor.
Lin Zhongxian confidently conceded to Yueziqian: "You ask first, and when you can't figure out a way, I will diagnose the emperor." ”
Yue Ziqian hooked her lips and smiled, "If this is not the case, you and I will diagnose the emperor at the same time, and each will say the treatment method, and in the end, the crown prince and the queen mother will decide whose method to adopt." ”
Lin Zhongxian nodded nonchalantly: "Whatever, anyway, only I know this diagnostic method!" ”
Yue Ziqian paused, this person is a little weird, and ordinary people who poison will say that only he knows how to detoxify!
However, after all, it was the first time for the two to meet, and it was not easy for Yue Ziqian to come to a conclusion too early, and seeing that Lin Zhongxian agreed, the two began to act separately.
The imperial doctors on both sides stretched their necks and looked at the edge of the bed, some wanted to see if the two of them had real skills, and some wanted to take this opportunity to learn two tricks from the world's masters.
However, to the stunned attention of all the imperial doctors, neither of them chose the traditional diagnostic method - taking the pulse.
One stood directly in front of the emperor's hospital bed, slightly raising his hand and staying between half an inch of the emperor's face, as if he was doing something.
The other directly opened the broken box he was carrying, took out a rag bag from it, and took out a broken box from the rag bag, and finally, took out a dark blue gem from the broken box, which shone in the sunlight.
Then, he put the sapphire in the palm of his hand and muttered something in his mouth.
Seeing this, the queen mother and the crown prince who were sitting not far away disappeared from the expectations in their hearts, and at this time, there were still people who wanted to get through with their eyelids low, and they would have to be put in prison and beat them off a layer of skin!
A quarter of an hour later, Yue Ziqian slowly opened his eyes, his brows furrowed slightly, before he came to the palace, he found that there was something strange here, but, after confirming it, his heart was full of doubts, who did it?
At this moment, Lin Zhongxian also put away the sapphire and looked at Yue Ziqian with a smug face: "Brother Tai, have you diagnosed the cause?" ”
Yueziqian nodded: "Naturally, what about you?" ”
Lin Zhongxian was stunned for a while, didn't expect this guy to be diagnosed? It can't be a lie, right? There is no chance that a second person will be able to diagnose the cause!
This guy must be doing it, well, yes, absolutely! Lin Zhongxian nodded, and then, looking at Yue Ziqian with contempt, Yin and Yang said strangely: "That brother, I'm going to wish you good luck in a while!" ”
Yue Ziqian looked at his steady look, and his doubts were even more serious, and before Yue Ziqian could think about it, Lin Zhongxian had already walked in front of the queen mother and the crown prince.
