Chapter 52: You and I Are Not Satisfied
In the southwest of the imperial city, after crossing the moat, it is Taipingli.
Because it is next to the palace and adjacent to the Qinhuai River, there are many princes' mansions.
In the most corner of Taipingli, where the street is wide and the Zhumen is everywhere, there is an inconspicuous alley called Hudou Lane. It's like a cecum, unobtrusive.
Who would have thought that Hu Weiyong's prime minister's mansion was hidden in this alley, which was easily ignored.
It is said that it is the Prime Minister's Mansion, but in fact, it is a small courtyard with two entrances and backs, which is not as big as the stables in the princes' mansions.
This was bought by Hu Weiyong when he was too often Shaoqing, and now that he has come to the court to pay respects, many people persuaded him to change to a more stylish house, but he rejected it on the grounds that his family was small and his money was too thin.
Because Boss Zhu hates corruption, he doesn't allow anyone to come to the door to pay respects, let alone accept gifts, and does not accept invitations. After a long time, gradually no one came to disturb him, and everyone in the court said that Hu Xiang was really a good official who was as clear as water and as cheap as a mirror!
But early this morning, a guest came to the door.
Zhou Yuanju personally carried the medicine box on his back and was brought into the back hall by Menzi.
I saw Hu Xiang wearing a half-old robe with white cuffs, and he had been waiting for a long time with a smile on his face.
"The lower official pays a visit to Eun Xiang." Zhou Yuanju hurriedly put down the medicine box and kowtowed to Hu Weiyong. "Good luck in the New Year, good luck and peace!"
"Haha, Brother Liangzi, please get up." Hu Weiyong gave a handful of hands and said amiably: "How many years have we been brothers, so we don't use this kind of false courtesy, right?" ”
"The lower officials can have today, it's all the credit of Enxiang." Zhou Yuanju's face was full of gratitude: "Grace misses the old, and the lower officials can't be ungrateful." ”
"Hahaha, the more I talk about it, the more I see it." Hu Weiyong took his hand affectionately and asked, "You haven't eaten so early, your brother and sister have stewed sand soup, come on, drink two bowls together." ”
"Yes." Zhou Yuanju couldn't help but know how to lift, and after thanking him, he sat down at the table with Hu Weiyong.
The so-called sand soup is also called sa soup, which is a chicken soup with dried shrimp, fungus and the like, and then stir an egg and make it.
"After killing chickens during the Chinese New Year, there is sand soup to drink. Usually when you come, you don't have this blessing. Hu Weiyong smiled and scooped a bowl of soup for Zhou Yuan, and brought him a baked cake. It is a must to eat it with a pancake. ”
"It's delicious." Zhou Yuan judged it and praised it.
Hu Weiyong also scooped a bowl by himself and reminisced about the old days while eating.
~~
It turned out that this week's court sentence was from Ningguo, and when Hu Weiyong was the magistrate of Ningguo, he was a well-known doctor in the local area.
At that time, Ningguo was considered the front line, next to Zhang Shicheng's territory, but the wife of a general of the Zhou regime was sick, and I didn't know where to find out about him, so he sent someone to disguise himself into Ningguo County, wanting to invite him to Huzhou to see a doctor.
Although Huzhou was not far away, it was considered an enemy country at that time, and it was a question of whether he could come back again. Even if he comes back, it's hard to say whether he will be regarded as a spy.
Zhou Tiantian was reluctant in every way, but with a sharp knife against his waist, he could only obediently go on the road.
As a result, when he was about to leave Ningguo County, he met Huzhi County, who was patrolling the county border with troops. Hu Weiyong saw the abnormality at a glance, but pretended not to know, and enthusiastically stepped forward to talk, saying that he was just falling into a pillow and asked him to help Zhengyizheng.
Those Zhou soldiers were lucky, let go of Dr. Zhou, and asked him to get it done quickly.
But at the moment when Dr. Zhou was out of their control, Hu Weiyong's soldiers suddenly drew their swords and rushed forward, and they were all taken down with three strikes and five divisions......
Since then, Dr. Zhou regarded Hu Zhixian as a life-saving benefactor, and he had excellent medical skills, treated many injured generals well, and helped Hu Weiyong to pull a lot of favors.
So wherever Hu Weiyong goes in the future, he will take him wherever he goes......
~~
"Eighteen years have passed in a blink of an eye, Hu Zhixian has become Prime Minister Hu Cheng, and Dr. Zhou has also become the judge of the Zhou court." Hu Weiyong recalled the past and said with emotion: "This is also a good story for us to go hand in hand." ”
"What Enxiang said, he is now the minister of a country, and the lower officials are just a hospital sentence, which is a world of difference." Zhou Yuan said humbly.
"It doesn't make a difference, as a civil official, I also have a left prime minister above me; As a physician, there is also a hospital envoy above you, and we are all second-in-command in our respective acres and thirds of land. Hu Weiyong shook his head with a smile, and sighed again:
"Others think we are beautiful, but the taste of these two leaders is really like people drinking water, cold and warm."
"yes, it's uncomfortable." Zhou Yuanshen nodded thoughtfully, and said depressedly: "Take the Tai Hospital as an example, it is the Yiyantang of the Jinyuan Envoy, and he has the final say on everything." The name of the lower official is the court judge, which is actually no different from an ordinary imperial doctor. ”
"It's like today, Eun Xiang opened his mouth, but he only gave his subordinates half a day off." Zhou Yuanju also learned to give his boss eye medicine, and only after he finished speaking, did he suddenly realize that "No, there is no Zuo Prime Minister in Zhongshu Province, and En Xiangxun is the number one?" ”
"Haha, you doctors are just too simple." Hu Weiyong shook his head and smiled, pointed to the north and said, "Why is there no left phase?" The left minister of the Ming Dynasty is in the capital city under the supervision of Fengyang! ”
"Korean Gong?"
"Yes, his old man's congratulatory table said that Fengyang is working together, and the construction period has been greatly shortened, and it will be completed this year." Hu Weiyong smiled and said:
"Why is he so anxious, doesn't he just want to come back with this credit? Of course, it's also possible, wait for us to move in as soon as possible. Either way, the day when his old man will return to the court is not far off. Saying that, he glanced at the Zhou court and said:
"You said that if the Korean Duke comes back, how will the emperor arrange for him?"
"It seems that there is only a Chinese book left...... court" Zhou Yuan's judgment was suddenly, and then he was even more confused, Hu Weiyong was a doctor with himself, what did he do with such a high-end thing?
"I don't want him back." Hu Weiyong didn't hide it, and said categorically in the next sentence.
'Poof......' Zhou Yuan sentenced him to almost spray soup, so he quickly put down the bowl and wiped his mouth to confess.
"Although now, we are also obedient to him everywhere. But I, the benevolent father, is far away in Fengyang after all, and the county officials are not as good as the current management, and I always have some freedom. Hu Weiyong said to himself:
"If he returns to Zhongshu one day, then I will have to honestly stand up for the rules, look at my face, lick the hook, and be a dog. What's the taste of this? ”
"Yes......" Zhou Yuan nodded sympathetically.
"So, Brother Liangzi, can you help me?" Hu Weiyong looked at him with burning eyes.
"Of course." Zhou Yuanju hurriedly nodded and said: "My life is all given by grace, let me do something, just command!" Go to the soup and go to the fire, don't give up! ”
"I'll let you give Sincerity a ......ride," Hu Weiyong said lightly.
"Ah......" Zhou Yuan was stunned when he was sentenced, and then involuntarily sifted the chaff, and then said in a trembling voice after a while: "This, what does this have to do with not letting Han Gong come back?" ”
"This is the way of checks and balances, as long as Liu Ji is alive, he can recover; But if Liu Ji is gone, the emperor will not use him anymore. Hu Weiyong said lightly: "The emperor's mental technique has always been like this, let alone our emperor?" ”
"But, but this is going to lose your head, no, the ...... of the Nine Clans" Zhou Yuan sentenced to sweat.
"The sky is falling and the top is high, what are you afraid of? There I am! Hu Weiyong comforted him and said, "Besides, have you forgotten who sent me this mission?" ”
"Yes...... Emperor? The Zhou court was stunned.
"Yes, think about it again, the emperor knows that I have an enmity with Liu Bowen, but he asked me to treat him, what does it mean?" Hu Weiyong continued to bewitch.
"A few meanings...... Zhou Yuan couldn't close his mouth, and stammered: "It's difficult, isn't it ......?"
"In the end, I didn't let you poison him, just send him back to the West." Hu Weiyong lowered his voice and said: "I also know some medical skills, and I know that the right medicine can be useful, but if this medicine is not right, it will aggravate the condition......"
"Yes." Zhou Yuan wiped his sweat and calmed down a little.
"You're trying to get him to return to the West in a few months, so who can suspect us?" Hu Weiyong put his hand on Zhou Yuanju's left shoulder, and gradually said hard: "Can you do it?" ”
"......" Zhou Yuan nodded with difficulty. Yes. ”
"Good. In a few months, you will be the number one in the hospital, I will let the surname Jin give you the court sentence, and let him lick your hook! Hu Weiyong patted Zhou Yuanju's shoulder hard, got up and said:
"Let's go, let's go see a doctor for Uncle Chengcheng!"
ps. It's basically set, and the 15th is on the shelves...... It's definitely going to be on the shelves, hehe, you know, looking forward to it.
