Chapter 18 Don't eat Zhou Su
Ji Fa was not in a hurry to get down to business, but wanted to go to see the apprentices studying here first, and by the way, also take a look at Ji Xinrou. Qiao Kun naturally agreed, leading Ji Fa and Jiang Ziya to the medicine field behind the house.
This residence is in a relatively remote place in Xiqi City, covering a large area, there are not many houses, and the vacant places have been converted into medicine fields. Many children cultivate all kinds of medicinal herbs, or water, or shade the sun, some are handling medicinal herbs, some are raising rabbits, and some are reciting medical books.
Ji Xinrou squatted on the ground, with a book in her left hand, a pen in her right hand, drawing and writing on a medicinal herb, and the green skirt was dragged to the ground, without the slightest image of a princess.
Seeing Ji Fa coming, Ji Xinrou was surprised, and hurriedly ran to Ji Fa, "Brother Wang, why are you here?" I have practiced well. As he spoke, he shook the book and pen in his hand, very proud.
Ji Fa picked off a leaf from her hair, took the book again, and compared it with the herbs, obviously the painting didn't look like it at all, Ji Fa still said "very similar", and asked, "Xin Rou, what kind of practice are you?" ”
"I'm familiar with the herb form." Ji Xinrou introduced Ji Fa, "Master said that this grass is called Bupleurum, which can relieve the suffering of the people, and it must be cultivated well." Therefore, I come to observe its growth every day, and when it is ripe and picked, I also have to record its medicinal properties, efficacy, and dosage. ”
Ji Fa praised Ji Xinrou a few more words, and gave a salute to Qiao Kun, "Thank you, Mr. Guo, for the sake of the people of Xiqi." ”
Qiao Kun said: "This is what Emperor Yan wished that day, and it is also for the people of the world." ”
In fact, Fan Cao Bupleurum can't solve all the plague epidemics, and he needs to cultivate more Fan Cao here. There is only a small part of the medicine fields here, most of them are in the "Mu Xingtian", cultivated by Qiao Kun's clone and the Yellow Turban Lux.
Qiao Kun added, "If this grass is successfully cultivated, it can be planted in many places in Xiqi, which is all the credit of the little princess." ”
"A little, a little." Ji Xinrou grinned, and hurriedly was modest, but her face was very proud.
During this time, she really worked very hard, memorized and studied the "Shennong Materia Medica", cultivated all the grasses, and had no time to play with the little sister Sanyilian.
Qiao Kun asked Ji again what was going on.
Ji Fa opened his mouth and said: "There is something that really wants to trouble Mr., please ask Mr. to help diagnose and treat a few patients." ”
Jiang Ziya added, "I'll lead Mr. there later." ”
Treating the sick? Qiao Kun thought in his heart, and asked again: "I don't know who these patients are?" "Who can have such a big face and let King Wu personally invite the doctor, and Jiang Ziya personally lead the way? Is it Tairen and Taiji? Or Taibo, Zhongyong?
Ji Fa said: "Boyi, Shuqi, there are a few others who are inconvenient to say. ”
"Who's that?" Ji Xinrou hadn't heard the names of Bo Yi and Shu Qi, so she asked.
Ji Fa explained, "They are the great sages of the human race, and they are very famous. ”
Qiao Kun naturally knew Boyi and Shuqi, and when he pretended to be Boyi to go to Chaoge to save Ji Chang, he had seen them, but he didn't know that they were actually in Xiqi now.
These two people did say good things for Ji Chang, although these words were not of any use to Ji Chang's return to China, but it was not bad to have this heart.
Qiao Kun thought about it for a while and agreed. Ji Fa and Jiang Ziya were overjoyed, and immediately arranged to take Qiao Kun to Boyi and Shuqi.
Ji Xinrou didn't follow, "Master, I'm going too!" ”
Ji Fa didn't stop it, but just said, "Xinrou, they're going outside the city." "At this time, Xiqi was still in wartime, and there were still enemy troops stationed outside the city, so it was a little risky to go out of the city.
Hearing this, Ji Xinrou, who was originally lively, quieted down and lowered her head, and raised her head after a while, "I'm going too!" ”
Qiao Kun could sense her hesitation and resoluteness, and knew in her heart that it was still the stress caused by the experience of almost dying when she was a child, and she was reluctant to leave Xiqi City from then on, but now she seems to be able to face it, and this child is also growing.
Since this is the case, Qiao Kun naturally agreed. He also intended to take his little sister to increase some medical practice experience. By the way, he also chose the best of the boys to call Lin Shan, and went with him.
Ji Fa and Jiang Ziya glanced at each other and nodded.
Jiang Ziya had already arranged for Wu Ji to lead a team of 500 cavalry to escort him, and Nezha accompanied him, but when he heard that Ji Xinrou was also going, he called Lei Zhenzi to come over again, and when he was ready, everyone went out of the city.
Qiao Kun, Ji Xinrou and Jiang Ziya shared a carriage. Qiao Kun and Jiang Ziya didn't care, but Ji Xinrou couldn't help but feel a little distracted, Jiang Ziya comforted Ji Xinrou and said: "Now that the Jizhou Army and Xiqi have been holding each other for several months, they are safe, and they will not rush to send troops." Even if you send troops, the old minister can also protect the princess and Mr. Feng. ”
Qiao Kun naturally believed that Jiang Ziya could protect Ji Xinrou's safety, after all, he had the Apricot Yellow Flag, and there were Nezha and Lei Zhenzi guards outside.
It's just that he cares more about the Jizhou Army. Wouldn't it be Daji's father and brother, Su Hu and Su Quanzhong, who commanded the Jizhou army?
Now Qiao Kun has no official position, and he is not ready to participate in the battle, and he really doesn't know that it is the Jizhou Army and Xiqi who are enemies now.
He asked again: "Why won't the Jizhou army rush to send troops?" ”
Jiang Ziya just smiled, but said no more, it was obviously a military secret and could not be said to outsiders.
Qiao Kun knew that he was speechless, and he didn't ask anymore.
Soon Jiang Ziya changed the topic again, "Bo Yi and Shu Qi's tempers are a little weird, and the princess and Mr. have to take care of them." ”
"Weird?" Ji Xinrou couldn't help but ask curiously, "Aren't they the great sages of the human race?" What's the weird method? ”
Qiao Kun felt that Bo Yi and Shu Qi had good tempers. Although it is two lake mud eggs.
Jiang Ziya said: "Bo Yi and Shu Qi were originally the sons of the Lonely Bamboo Kingdom. Before he died, Guzhujun wanted to hand over the country to Shuqi, but after Guzhujun's death, Shuqi gave way to Boyi, who did not accept it, and ran away successively and settled in Chaoge, which was passed down for a while. ”
"Oh?" When Ji Xinrou heard this, she had doubts, "Then they didn't obey their father's orders, are they unfilial?" ”
"Yes." Qiao Kun responded, and their father was still the king, and they didn't obey the king's orders, so they were still disloyal. However, Qiao Kun didn't want to accuse them, so he only asked: "Aren't Boyi and Shuqi singing in court?" How did you get to Xiqi? ”
Jiang Ziya explained: "A few months ago, Boyi and Shuqi came to Xiqi with Young Master Jiang and Master Wei, and they also brought sacrificial vessels. King Wu was named a young master of Jiang, and a master was a musician. However, Boyi and Shuqi resigned, and they also rejected the houses in Xiqi City, moved outside the city, and found a dilapidated house where no one lived in them. ”
Ji Xinrou was even more strange, "Since they don't want to live in Xiqi, why do they want to come to Xiqi?" If you want to live in the wilderness, where can't you go? ”
"Then they must have the backbone." Qing Gao, Qiao Kun replied casually, and defended Bo Yi and Shu Qi for two sentences.
Jiang Ziya didn't participate in the discussion of these, but said: "King Wu instructed to send them some food every day, but some time ago they were sick, and the famous doctors in Xiqi went to diagnose and treat them, but they were driven out, and now the condition is worse, and ordinary doctors are helpless." ”
Qiao Kun understood, so he had to ask him to help.
Can't you let these two people die in Xiqi? Qiao Kun had a guess in his heart, but he didn't say much, but began to point out the dialectic between fiction and reality in Ji Xinrou's "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic".
In a short time, the people had reached thirty miles outside the city, and saw an old house that was a little dilapidated in the distance.
Jiang Ziya motioned for the soldiers to stop, and only led Qiao Kun, Ji Xinrou, Nezha, Lei Zhenzi and others to go, and the boy Lin Shan also followed.
Before I got closer, I could hear the coughing sound inside, and I could smell the strong smell of medicine.
Qiao Kun listened to the coughing sound and judged that the person who coughed was a lung disease, and it seemed that he still had some lack of qi, and his liver and gallbladder were weak. The medicine is ephedra, parsnip, etc., which are all medicines for chest tightness, asthma and cough.
Although the medication is symptomatic, it is somewhat insufficient, and the amount is not right. Qiao Kun thought so, but listened to someone inside: "This pancake is much thicker than usual, after all these years of fighting, I'm afraid that Xiqi will ...... soon."
Before he finished speaking, Qiao Kun shouted: "I am under the order of King Wu to visit the two bosses, Boyi and Shuqi. ”
Qiao Kun didn't expect that these two old men still had some political intuition, but no matter what Bo Yi and Shu Qi found from the pancakes, he was bound to not let them say these words about the government and politics, after all, Jiang Ziya was beside him.
Hearing Qiao Kun's words, there was a sound of talking in the house, but after a while, he heard a "squeak", and the door was opened.
It was Bo Yi who opened the door, he was still dressed up in the same court, wide shirts, sleeves, hemp shoes, silk silk, but he was a little older, and he was also a little haggard, and he looked really sick.
"It turned out to be Prime Minister Jiang Cheng. My two brothers don't need Dr. Xiqi's treatment. Bo Yi looked at Jiang Ziya and seemed to be a little unhappy.
Jiang Ziya didn't care, but said: "This is Empress Xi, Mr. Feng, a disciple of Emperor Yan, who specially treated the two of them." As for me, I will not go in. ”
Qiao Kun nodded, "There is no blame for the downwind, these are my two disciples." ”
The names of Emperor Xi and Emperor Yan were really good, and Bo Yi hurriedly invited Qiao Kun, Ji Xinrou, and Lin Shan to enter.
The things in the house are messed up, it looks like a living room, and it looks like a dining room, but there is a bed, things in the room are messy, and there are no cabinets, and any shabby tables and stools are a little casual.
The table was very shabby, it looked as if it hadn't been wiped in a long time, and some kind of pancakes, pottery, and so on were placed in a mess on the table.
There was also a small stone slab on the ground, and I don't know what it was for. There were some messy plants next to the stone slab, Qiao Kun looked at it, a small part of them were herbs, and most of them were wild vegetables.
There was also a jar of medicine boiling in the house.
Ji Xinrou sniffed and said, "This is ephedra, a medicine for chest tightness." ”
Qiao Kun nodded, making obvious progress, and asked, "Do you think it is appropriate to use ephedra?" ”
Ji Xin said: "Ephedra is warm, pungent and slightly bitter, it has the effect of relieving asthma in the lungs, but it also hurts the body, and the weak should use it with caution. ”
Although he only smelled ephedra from it, Qiao Kun was also very satisfied, if this young lady continued to maintain this, studied for another half a year, and passed the test, she could teach Ji Xinrou the mana of "Shennong's Materia Medica".
When Bo Yi heard this, his face changed greatly, and at this time, there was a coughing sound in the inner room, which became more and more intense.
Qiao Kun hurriedly checked the back room, and Bo Yi stretched out his hand, as if trying to stop it, but finally stopped in mid-air.
Shu Qi was lying on the bed, describing himself as thin, with a sallow complexion, coughing incessantly, obviously very uncomfortable. Qiao Kun hurriedly transferred a trace of the mana of the "Shennong Materia Medica", and Shu Qi slowly calmed down.
With this effort, Qiao Kun instantly investigated Shu Qi's situation. Shuqi's condition is indeed very poor, first of all, the liver and lungs are not very good, the heart is weak, and he suffers from some wind and cold, so he has the root of the disease, coupled with the mixture of anger and anger, the liver qi is stagnant, and the discharge is not smooth, and he has been running around for days, and some days ago, he was hit by some plague, and he used the medicine of the tiger and wolf. If you don't treat it, I'm afraid you'll die.
Bo Yi watched from the side, and when he saw Qiao Kun getting up, he asked, "But I don't know how Shu Qi is?" ”
Do you care about Shuqi now? Qiao Kun couldn't help but be speechless, "Brother Ling's body is weak and weak, his heart is weak, his liver qi is stagnant, he is infected with wind and cold, and he is poisoned, the key is to take a large amount of tiger and wolf medicine, if he is not treated, he will die." ”
Bo Yi's face was even more guilty, and he hurriedly saluted Qiao Kun, "Mr. Wangfeng saved Uncle Qi." ”
Qiao Kun took out two pills and gave them to Bo Yi and asked him to turn water into water and feed them to Shu Qi.
Uncle Qi took the Danshui, and it was really calmer.
Bo Yi thanked him again, and Qiao Kun spoke, "This is just a palliative treatment, so that my brother's liver and gallbladder are weak, it should be caused by anger, the medicine of the tiger and wolf is one thing, the key is that he has not eaten for a long time, and his body is weak, not only Brother Ling, but also your old man, I don't know why?" ”
Hearing this, Boyi sighed and said: "Since the death of Uncle Wang, the two of us have been unhappy, and then the king has no way, and the pregnant woman is seen to see the fetus obeying, and the two of us are naturally angry, so they contacted the young master Jiang, and the master left the song together and came to Xiqi. Along the way, it was indeed my third brother who suffered. ”
Hearing that the pregnant woman's belly was opened to see the fetal position, Qiao Kun was also angry, and he didn't know what kind of illness Na Dixin had committed again. But he still suppressed these emotions and only said, "Why did your old man hide it from me? You haven't eaten lately, have you? ”
Bo Yi looked at Qiao Kun, and finally sighed, "Ji Fa has a heart of disobedience, and the two of us decided not to eat Zhou Su, these days, the two of us will give all the food given by Ji Fa to the people, just eat wild vegetables." Even the medicine refused, and only dug up the medicine and boiled it by himself. ”
That's why Shu Qi was killed. Qiao Kun couldn't help but be speechless, did he really think that anyone could be a doctor? The left envoy of the monarch and the minister didn't know that he had prescribed medicine indiscriminately, and he hadn't eaten Shu Qi to death, which was powerful enough.
But isn't Bo Yi and Shu Qi not eating Zhou Su after King Wu destroyed Shang? Although Qiao Kun was puzzled, he still persuaded: "If you don't eat millet, why don't you even eat pancakes?" The pancakes are not made of millet, so it doesn't hurt to eat some. It's not enough to just eat wild vegetables. "The pancakes are made of wheat, not the same variety as millet.
Bo Yi didn't reply, only snorted coldly, very faceless.
Ji Xin was soft, "You old man, you don't respect your father's will, and you abandon the people, you can be described as a disloyal, unfilial, ruthless and unrighteous person." How dare you speak to my master like that? Why don't you eat Zhou Su, don't you know, even the wild vegetables you pick are also from our Da Zhou? ”
Qiao Kun hurriedly grabbed Ji Xinrou and didn't let her continue, he was afraid that these two old men would really starve to death without eating anything, and said: "Under the whole world, it is not the king's land." Whether it is Xiqi's millet or wild vegetables, they are the king's, so why should your old man care? ”
If you follow the logic of Boyi and Shuqi, in fact, they should not eat Shang Su, and the Great Shang was also established by Cheng Tang as a minister.
He thought again, at that time, Di Xin made a bet with him, if it wasn't for Jiang Ziya's interference, the gambling contract would be established, and the world could actually be counted as his.
