It's a sweltering summer.

Dr. Zhang stood under the porch, his forehead covered with sweat.

I sheltered from the wind here, and after standing for such a while, I even breathed tightly, and all that lingered in my ears was the chirping of cicadas.

The throat rolled heavily, but he still didn't speak, just raised his head with his head down, and looked at Xu Jian in front of him very seriously.

The young Fu Guogong was very relaxed.

As a doctor, he can tell a lot of things at a glance.

Is the body tense, the shoulders stiff or not, and the gestures deliberate......

These states presented by bones and muscles cannot be hidden from a good doctor.

What Dr. Zhang saw in Xu Jian was at ease, and the ease behind it.

The man revealed his identity and showed him the way, but he did not mention the ruggedness of the road or where it led, and naturally waited for him to step out.

As Fu Guogong said, this is an "opportunity".

I am afraid that it will be missed, not Fu Guogong, but Dr. Zhang himself.

Because he's sharp enough.

keenly aware that behind the visit to Beijing, it is by no means a simple impostor.

And the crisis he faced......

He is "Doctor Yue".

He was stirred into troubled waters, and drowned as "Doctor Yue".

Where did Zhang Qi in Guanzhong go and what happened, who knows?

Even he didn't know it himself.

The heartbeat was a few beats faster, and Dr. Zhang looked directly into Xu Jian's eyes, making a final struggle in his heart.

On one side is the prince of Jin, and on the other side is the prince of Fuguo.

The royal family and the powerful, he can't afford to offend anyone, and he can't figure out what is going on between these two people, or these two parties.

As a dizzy fish washed into a pool, if he wants to live, what he has to distinguish between right and wrong is not right or wrong, nor who has the upper hand and who has a better chance of winning.

Those big things have nothing to do with him.

There was only one thing he needed to care about: who was more reliable, who wouldn't kill him casually.

The questions are simplified, and the answers are slowly emerging.

In a saying throughout the ages, the royal family has no family affection.

Dr. Zhang didn't know about the saint, nor did he know about the emperor's relatives, but the common people could say a few words about the danger of the first emperor fighting for power and taking the throne in his later years.

The first emperor abolished the fourth son of the emperor as a commoner, and the third son of the emperor was in the forbidden palace, and finally passed the throne to the sixth son of the emperor.

The royal brother who can survive that kind of fight, can there be fuel-efficient?

How many bones can be buried in exchange for today's prince's throne?

And the auxiliary prince, the disciple of the general.

How many battles did the old grandfather fight for the imperial court?

There are also many people who surrender to the border pass in Guanzhong, but those who return to their hometowns alive will more or less mention a few generals who led the troops.

Dr. Zhang was afraid of death and had never been a military doctor, but he was good at treating muscle and bone injuries, and many of the Guanzhong soldiers who were injured and retired were his "old customers".

Talking about it, it's also about the experience of the border.

Everyone has praised that the old grandfather is arrogant, cheerful and heroic, and he is very fierce in training, but he cherishes them very much.

There are always injuries and sacrifices in battle, which cannot be avoided, but whether the generals who lined up the troops above regarded the soldiers as human beings or not, everyone could feel it.

One will be successful, and ten thousand bones will wither.

How are ten thousand bones buried, is it necessary to bury them, and is there any value? The bones all want to fight for that.

The grandfather of the old country has a very high status in the hearts of the soldiers.

And the young Xu Jian he brought out......

Doctor Zhang's gaze slid down, and finally landed on Xu Jian's right leg.

I don't seem to have heard of the specific injury, but after all, I was injured at Yumen Pass, and the shape of the wound is also the saber of the Xiliang people, to put it bluntly, I was injured during the battle.

At that time, notices were posted everywhere in the state capital looking for doctors, and veterans he recognized pulled him to see, wanting him to go to the capital to try, but at that time, there was something at home, so he didn't join in the excitement.

The veteran said that he was injured to save people, but he was indignant, but he didn't dare to say more.

Dr. Zhang made up his mind.

The young soldiers who defend the frontier and are iron-clad will hurt their legs in order to save people, so they will not sell their soldiers casually, right?

"Yes, the old man has something to say," Dr. Zhang wiped his face, not letting the sweat drip into his eyes, "Lord Jin really wanted to find Dr. Yue, but unfortunately he didn't find it, it just so happened that the old man's age and gray hair matched, so he found the old man on top." ”

Xu Jian curled her lips.

He didn't misread Dr. Zhang, this person is keen and shrewd, and he can feel the slightest disturbance.

"What the prince instructed, not the people who do things below to deceive the superiors and subordinates." Xu Jian summed it up.

Doctor Zhang nodded: "The old man is lonely and unknown in Beijing, even if he comes to the capital, he will not get the opportunity to see you, so I promised the prince to treat the injury first, heal it and then identify it, as an expedient measure." ”

Xu Jian asked again: "What else did the prince say?" ”

Doctor Zhang's face was embarrassed.

Xu Jian saw it in his eyes and could guess the reason for Dr. Zhang's hesitation.

The words were all spoken, and there was no reason for half of the truth, and Dr. Zhang's words were not retreating, but his words were not easy to express.

This is not surprising.

If King Jin was the hand behind the scenes, he would not "tell the truth".

The purpose of asking the doctor to see Xu Jian is not to cure the injury, and of course it is impossible to rush to cure it.

Everyone knows that it was the King of Jin who invited a doctor and abolished Xu Jianzhi, and the prince couldn't explain it.

His purpose is to find out Xu Jian's true injury, whether it is really lame or false, whether it is cured or not, Xu Jian's injury can "contain" Li Shao in the imperial study, but how to use this knife needs to be weighed more.

This is not a simple double-edged sword, but a nine-section whip, the force is not right, not only will it hurt itself, but the courtiers of the entire Jinluan Palace will have to hug their heads and run away, so as not to be affected.

How could a deep-minded person say everything "clearly" to Dr. Zhang?

The goal—to get to the bottom of the injury—was achieved.

Therefore, it is enough to be stable and accurate enough to invite the old doctor who is good at it from a place where he can't fight with Xu Jian, not to choose the Tai Hospital, and to set aside the orthopedic doctors in the Gyeonggi area.

After Xu Jian sorted out his thoughts, he changed his mind and asked, "What did the prince ask about my injury?" What did you answer? ”

This question is much clearer than the previous one.

Doctor Zhang calmed down, recalled the conversation when he met the King of Jin several times, and said: "The prince is very concerned about the methods and results of the treatment, and he is afraid that the situation will get worse and worse.

The old man said that he couldn't boast about avoiding it completely, there would indeed be that possibility, but normally it would not appear.

This is the same as when the old man communicated with you before.

The prince also asked what the best and worst is, and asked the old man to just say, he said that the old man is too real, everything is clearly written to you, and if you go back to find the imperial doctor, there will be nothing to do with the old man.

Old man ......"

Dr. Zhang paused halfway through.

At that time, the back and forth of the conversation came back to his mind, and he clearly remembered the feeling that came to his mind at that time.

Dangerous.

He did feel the danger.

His instincts told him that if he didn't answer at that time, the danger was not far away.

"This ......" Doctor Zhang took a deep breath, and after a few swallows, he ignored the wet and cold sweat on the back of his neck, and said, "What the prince wants to know is that there is no old man, only a treatment method, whether it can be effective." ”

Not only King Jin, but Ye Gonggong's strange words also seem to mean the same.

At this moment, where the danger came from, Dr. Zhang suddenly understood.

If he patted his chest and told King Jin that it was useless to have a booklet, he had to rely on him to apply needles, rely on him to adjust the prescription according to the recovery progress, and he was the only one in the world, then he would really be finished.

Fortunately, what he said at the time was that the doctors could be more sophisticated.

But Rao is like this, and Dr. Zhang doesn't dare to let down his vigilance.

"You have a conflict with King Jin?" Since he chose a side, he couldn't hide anything at this time, so Dr. Zhang could only ask stubbornly.

"It's not a contradiction," Xu Jian said, "The prince is very concerned about my injury. ”

Doctor Zhang said: "I won't tell you anything, your injury is really difficult to treat, and you have suffered hardships, and in the end, as I told you before, you can't recover to the same as before."

But if you are young, you can get better, and you will be able to relax a little more in the next few decades, and the old man thinks that there is still a need for treatment.

The old man can write all the methods into a booklet and hand it over to you, and he is also confident in his own ability, and the old man will come in person to have the best effect. ”

If you want to say to the king of Jin, everyone else can do it, and you must say to the auxiliary prince that only he can.

This is the way to save your life.

How could Xu Jian not be able to see through Dr. Zhang's thoughts?

If it weren't for the fact that King Jin really felt the crisis, how could Dr. Zhang "defect" so quickly?

Doctor Zhang really became more and more afraid the more he thought about it.

When I looked at the flowers in the fog, I was very panicked, and I was surrounded by anxiety, and I only felt that one wrong step would break my bones, so that I didn't dare to relax at all.

And really understand the doorway, the anxiety and panic disappear, and the rest is simply "afraid".

There is no such thing as stepping on the wrong step.

Either way, it's over.

If Fu Guogong didn't pull him and refused to treat his injuries, he could only leave the capital.

The people of the prince of Jin will send him back, because he is a guest and was invited, and the whole capital will know that Dr. Yue from the northeast is not capable enough and left.

And then, there was no more.

Doctor Yue is gone, and so is his Doctor Zhang.

A straight road, a dead end.

"Grandpa Guo," Doctor Zhang must fight for himself to the end, "The old man was found by the prince, you can't completely believe it, this is normal, you keep the booklet, the old man, the old man also stays in the capital, you just ask the imperial doctor to discuss......"

Xu Jian smiled when he heard this.

"Run when you should run, ask when you should beg," he didn't care if Dr. Zhang could understand his words, and said to himself, "Dr. Zhang is indeed very keen, and knows how to live." ”

Doctor Zhang also smiled, smiling bitterly.

Xu Jian walked back, and said, "Doctor Zhang's treatment method, although it is risky, I am a little interested. ”

Dr. Zhang stepped up to follow.

If you are interested, if you are interested, he will be useful to the Auxiliary Prince.

"My leg injury is good or bad, and I'm used to it," Xu Jian said again, "If you really cure me completely, I won't be used to it." ”

Doctor Zhang's footsteps paused, and he was surprised and crossed his heart.

"Let's treat it slowly," Xu Jian said, "Didn't you say that it would take a year or two to see some results?" ”

Doctor Zhang touched his beard.

He did say, modestly speaking.

In fact, it doesn't take that long, after starting the treatment, within a month or two, you can see whether the symptoms are right or not, whether it is useful or not, if you can't see it, you don't need to go down, it is a waste of time, energy, and hardship.

"You don't seem to be in a hurry?" Dr. Zhang asked.

In other words, he actually felt that Fu Guogong's strength to treat his injuries was insufficient.

It shouldn't be.

The old wounded don't want to toss, that's normal, he has seen a lot, but the young ones want to fight.

Only when the injury is healed can he support his family.

Fu Guogong definitely doesn't have to worry about making ends meet, but at such an age, the offspring who has not yet married can't just get by, right?

Xu Jian didn't stop at his feet, turned his head and glanced at Doctor Zhang, and said, "Hurry or not, Doctor Zhang has to tell me." ”

Doctor Zhang was stunned for a moment, but Xu Jian didn't give him a chance to talk more, and walked back.

In the flower hall, Ye Gonggong was waiting a little anxiously.

Drinks and snacks are readily available, no one neglects him, and he also thinks that there is no business between Fu Guogong and Doctor Yue, but if he doesn't see it with his own eyes, he will be in a hurry.

Mainly, it is difficult for the prince to explain there.

Seeing the two coming back back before and after, Grandpa Ye hurriedly put down the bowl in his hand, wiped his mouth, and stood up: "Grandpa Guo, is Miss Liu's body okay?" ”

"She's just greedy for coldness, let Doctor Yue prescribe a prescription, it doesn't matter," Xu Jian responded, sat down, and looked at Doctor Zhang again, "My leg hurts, let's think about it again." ”

Gonggong Ye's gaze turned between Xu Jian and Doctor Yue.

It seems that Dr. Yue can't convince the Duke of Fuguo, so follow the prince's wishes......

Doctor Yue's face was serious.

After the previous conversation, there should not be such a result as "reconsideration".

Yes!

The last sentence that Grandpa Guo said just now.

He figured it out at once, and hurriedly said, "The old man's suggestion is to start diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible."

Your injury is not easy to treat, it is equivalent to another injury, it will be very painful at first, take advantage of the heat to get through this period, otherwise this winter will be even more uncomfortable.

You're still going to get married within the year, so you can't stand up straight in pain at that time, right?

If you can only lie down in November, wouldn't you, wouldn't you have to change the wedding date? ”

Gonggong Ye frowned when he saw Xu Jian's brows.

According to the original situation, he should advise the Duke of Fuguo a few words.

Thinking about it this way, I have to talk about the scene.

"Doctor Yue is right," Ye Gong said, "Late treatment is better than early treatment......

Xu Jian pondered for a moment and said, "The prince has a good intention, Doctor Yue has been invited back from the mountain, but I am disrespectful. ”

Ye Gonggong laughed twice, and his emotions were a little complicated.

When he was looking forward to the Fuguo Gong's response, he didn't respond, and after giving up, he responded.

However, Grandpa Guo had left with Doctor Yue for a while, and Grandpa Ye was beating a drum in his heart, how could he mention this to the prince?

No.

When he goes back, he has to talk to Dr. Yue.

To treat the injuries of the auxiliary country, you can't give strong medicine as soon as you come up, step by step, the effect can be ...... slowly

As he was making up his mind, Xu Jian said, "Since you want to treat your injuries, Doctor Yue will live in the Guogong Mansion after that." ”
