340. The White Lotus Mantra
After several heavy snowfalls, the entire Central Plains also had a hard breath of early spring.
At this time, at the home of Doctor Li in Qizhou, although it was not long after dawn, Du Buyi and White Lotus got up early and sowed seeds for Doctor Li's vegetable field in a nearby vegetable field.
I only heard Doctor Li running out of the house happily, and shouted to the place where Du Buyi and the White Lotus were:
"Brother Du Xian, white girl, hurry up, I finally developed the medicine to treat the white girl, I developed ......!"
When Du Buyi heard this, he quickly dropped the hoe, pulled the white lotus who was holding the basket and was sowing seeds on the side, and ran towards Doctor Li, and then asked excitedly:
"Doctor Li, have you really developed it?"
Dr. Li gestured with his hand:
"Come in with me!"
When several people came to a stove in the house, Doctor Li opened the lid of a clay pot on the stove, and then put two spoonfuls of decoction medicine in a bowl with a big spoon, and said to the white lotus:
"White girl, you drank this decoction first!"
Du Buyi took the bowl, spooned it with a small spoon, brought it to his mouth and blew it, and then fed the decoction to the mouth of the white lotus spoonful by spoonful.
Doctor Li looked at the two of them and said with a smile:
"Are you two planning to get married now?"
The White Lotus immediately looked up and said:
"I won't marry him, we are brothers, and he should be good to me as an elder brother!"
After putting down the bowl, Du did not forget to glare at the white lotus and said:
"Next time, don't think I'll feed you a decoction like this, it's a matter of course to be good to you, and I don't owe you anything!"
The White Lotus immediately glared at Du Yi with wide eyes, and said:
"Are you bigger than my eyes? I didn't say I wanted you to feed me medicine, you were your own passion!"
At this time, Doctor Li didn't know where to take a strange-shaped, but smooth black stone, and put it in the fire and roasted it.
After the two argued, White Lotus found that Doctor Li was roasting the black stone in the fire, so she no longer paid attention to Du Zhifu, but asked Doctor Li:
"What's the use of this black stone? Doctor Li, why do you want to roast it on the fire?"
Doctor Li said with a mysterious expression:
"This black stone is called Stone Elephant Zhi, it is very useful, I went to collect medicine yesterday and actually let me pick it up, I really didn't expect it!"
The White Lotus asked again:
"What's the use of this stone elephant mushroom?
Doctor Li immediately said:
"This stone elephant mushroom is of great use to you, and the medicine I developed for you was actually not sure, but now with this stone elephant mushroom and the medicine I boiled for you, I can't think of two days, your body will be back to normal!"
At this time, Shi Xiangzhi seemed to be a little hot, and Doctor Li said to Du Buyi:
"Brother Du Xian, you hurry up and get a piece of cloth to wrap this stone elephant zhi, and then let the white girl lie on the bed, and then put this wrapped stone elephant zhi on the white girl's abdomen, and then heat it after the stone elephant zhi becomes cold, and so on, but these two days will be hard for you, Brother Du Xian!"
Du did not forget to reply:
"It's okay for me to work hard, as long as the white girl is well!"
So Du did not forget to enter the room with the white lotus, and put this stone elephant mushroom on the white lotus, after the white lotus put on the stone elephant mushroom, at first I felt that there was no change in the body, but then a sudden warmth in the abdomen spread to the whole body, and the mood was also happy.
Two days later, the White Lotus really felt a feeling of comfort in her abdomen that she had never felt before, and she only heard Doctor Li say:
"White girl, congratulations, your body is finally better!"
Just as a few people were celebrating, a familiar voice was heard outside, and only this person was heard to say:
"Why is the house so lively today!"
Doctor Li said excitedly:
"My disobedient rebel has finally returned!"
Then a few people hurriedly came out to take a look, and sure enough, it was Li Shizhen who came back from the capital.
After Dr. Li and his son chatted for a while, Li Shizhen came to talk to Du Yiyi and White Lotus.
I only heard Li Shizhen say:
"Brother Du, I have good news for you this time!"
Du did not forget to ask with a smile:
"Shi Zhen, just say the good news!"
Li Shizhen said slowly:
"I went to Jingshi this time not only to save the emperor, but also to save Zhang Fujing Zhang, and even made the emperor alienate Tao Zhongwen and Mo Shengqi!"
Du Bu Bu hurriedly pulled Li Shizhen to the side and sat down and said:
"Shi Zhen happened to tell Brother Du about how you saved the emperor and Brother Zhang!"
Li Shizhen said:
"Good!"
It turned out that on the second day after Li Shizhen and Zhang Fujing lived in the palace, the emperor took the two of them to the alchemy room of Tao Zhongwen and Mo Shengqi.
At this time, Tao Zhongwen and Mo Shengqi saw that the emperor naturally knelt down to greet him.
Zhu Houxi asked the two directly at that time:
"Did you give me a poisonous beauty?"
The two of them were shocked at this time, and after explaining one after another, they quickly guessed that it must be Zhang Fujing and the kid named Li Shizhen next to him who framed themselves, so they directly pointed the finger at Li Shizhen, saying that he was a quack doctor with evil intentions, intending to frame the two of them and the national teacher Shao Yuanjie in order to achieve a way to justify his name.
After Zhu Houxi listened, he directly asked the two of them to come up with evidence, but the two of them couldn't catch any handle from Li Shizhen for a few days.
Anyway, one night, Li Shizhen suddenly found the room where several people were hiding poisonous beauties, and directly took Emperor Zhu Houxi, Zhang Fujing and a group of eunuchs to turn out and destroy all these poisonous beauties.
Zhu Houxi didn't want to cause more trouble, so he decided to fasting any pills during the period when his body had not recovered, and also expelled the poison king Mo Shengqi from the palace.
After listening to it, Du Yi said:
"What a joy at first sight!"
Li Shizhen then said:
"Yes, I didn't expect the emperor to be so wise, not only was he busy with illness during the day, but he was even reviewing the recitals at night!"
Du did not forget to say:
"Our Ming Dynasty emperor and even Emperor Wuzong are a generation of diligent masters, let alone the current emperor. ”
Then he asked:
"Why do you say that you saved Zhang Fujing and Brother Zhang?"
Li Shizhen said with a smile:
"Brother Du, have you forgotten that I treated Master Zhang that time? I said that if he was so tired for another two years, he would definitely die violently, and when he saw that I had cured the emperor's illness, of course he also believed it, so he began to use the trick I said before to be bedridden, to pretend to be sick and let the emperor allow him to resign. ”
Du did not forget to ask again:
"Then the emperor allowed it?"
李时珍 says:
"No, but I think it's almost over, before I left the palace, Lord Zhang had already pretended to be sick and returned home, and I also deliberately tested the emperor!"
Du did not forget to say:
"Then tell me how of course you tempted!"
Li Shizhen spoke again.
At that time, Li Shizhen had just finished boiling medicine for the emperor and drank it, and it happened that Emperor Zhu Houxi asked about Li Shizhen and Zhang Fujing's illness.
So I answered:
"Master Zhang has contracted a serious head disease due to years of overwork!"
After hearing this, Emperor Zhu Houxi hurriedly asked me:
"What kind of head disease is it?"
So I simply said something serious:
"It is very similar to Cao Mengde's head disease in Cao Wei at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, I'm afraid that Lord Zhang's head disease is more serious than Cao Mengde's!"
The emperor was naturally startled, and then said to himself:
"Zhang Aiqing has been with me for so many years, how can I bear to let him leave me, but who can replace him in the court now?"
So I comforted the emperor by a sentence:
"Your Majesty, in fact, you don't have to worry, you will definitely find a suitable person to replace Master Zhang!"
Later, the emperor did not speak for a long time, and finally read the sentence:
"Is it Li Shihao, or Xia Yan, no, no, no...... None of them work!"
But I can already see that the Emperor is already starting to prepare.
After I left the palace, I told Lord Zhang, who was pretending to be sick in his house, so Lord Zhang was overjoyed, thanked me, and said:
"I don't see that in a few months, the emperor will definitely allow me to resign and return to my hometown!"
Du Buyi suddenly remembered a person at this time, and immediately asked:
"Have you ever seen a concubine named Qing'er when you were in the palace?"
Li Shizhen touched his head at this time and said:
"It seems that there is a concubine named Qingfei, the emperor has been to her several times, I have been to him once, she seems to be pregnant with the prince, and I found that there are a lot of toxins in his body, and the fetus may not be protected!"
At this time, Bai Lianhua on the side hurriedly asked:
"Then Qing'er, she'll be fine, right?"
Li Shizhen said:
"Then Concubine Qing should be fine, I have prescribed him medicine to suppress toxins in the body, do you know her if you ask this?"
The White Lotus then said:
"Because she's my own sister!"
Li Shizhen smiled and said:
"I see. ”
At this time, I only heard Doctor Li shouting outside:
"You've been talking for so long, don't you need to eat?"
Li Shizhen immediately replied:
"Of course I have to eat, I'm starving, I haven't eaten your father's food for a long time!"
I immediately went to tidy up the table and stools.
In the evening, White Lotus and Du Bucheng snuggled together in the room and chatted.
I only heard the White Lotus ask:
"Brother Du, what are you going to do tomorrow?"
Du did not forget to reply:
"Since you are in good health, then let's leave for the capital tomorrow, after all, it is time for Mo Shengqi and Tao Zhongwen to repay their debts!"
The White Lotus forgot to glance at Du and said:
"Can't we just find a place to live in seclusion and stop caring about these rights and wrongs? Brother Du, I really feel a little tired. ”
Du did not forget to touch the head of the white lotus and said:
"But if I don't seek revenge from them, I feel uneasy, have you forgotten your mother's revenge?"
White Lotus sighed and said:
"Count it up, my mother and mother can be resurrected in half a year, what revenge do I have to take revenge, after all, the poison king Mo Shengqi is also my sister and her father!"
Du did not forget to ask again:
"Do you really want me to give up these grievances and live in seclusion with you?"
白lotus says:
"Yes, but before I go into seclusion, I want you to accompany me to the north and south of the river to have a good time!"
Du didn't forget to take a long breath and said:
"Can you let me take care of my thoughts alone at night and give you the answer tomorrow morning?"
The White Lotus then looked at Du Yi and nodded affectionately.
After Du Buyi got out of the room, he came to the thatched roof alone, and looked at the moon in the sky, although the moon was round at this time, but in Du Buyi's eyes, the moon would disappear one day.
Du Buyi couldn't help but recall the days with Keiko, Zihan, Xi Siqi, and Mingxi at this time, thinking that if he wasn't too persistent, why would he let them end up like this if he wanted to do his so-called big things all day long.
I can't help but wonder, am I really wrong all these years? Is it really wrong for me to lose so many things for the sake of my family and country, for justice, for my own principles, and for those promises that have no meaning? Can I never forget and turn back? Can I start again......?
