Under the blue-gray eaves, a blind old beggar is holding her little granddaughter to shelter from the rain.

The little granddaughter said, "Grandma, I'm hungry." ”

The old beggar could only say, "Bear with me, there will be food soon." ”

The little granddaughter nodded obediently and stopped shouting.

The old beggar touched her head lovingly, but she knew in her heart that in such weather, there were few pedestrians on the road, and there were few people who gave alms, so it was inevitable that she would starve.

At the end of the road, a pedestrian hurried in a cloak and stopped under the eaves. After looking left and right, there was no one on the long street, and he couldn't help but smile, took out a steaming meat bun from his arms, threw it in the broken bowl under the eaves, and said in his heart: This job is easy and tight.

Just when he straightened up and wanted to leave, he suddenly saw a person at the end of the long street, without an umbrella or a robe, only wearing a white robe, and walked straight over, and soon came here.

He glanced at the young man in surprise, pulled the hat, and passed by the man, breathing a sigh of relief in his heart. But he felt that his wrist was suddenly caught, and he turned his head sharply, and saw that his eyes were staring at him tightly, full of irrepressible anger, but cold and piercing.

He shuddered, and said angrily, "What do you want to do?" His hand had already touched his waist, but he had been punched in the face, his body floated slightly, and then fell to the ground, and his mind was a little confused for a while.

The little girl hugged the bun and looked at this scene with wide eyes. Xu Xian exhaled lightly, stretched out his hand to take the bun from the little girl's hand, stuffed her with a dime of silver, and said slowly: "Go buy something else to eat!" But he couldn't help but think of boiling glass.

Xu Xian broke a bit of the skin of the bun and sniffed it, the smell made his brows furrow deeper.

Zhang De'an, you are looking for death!

The clothed man regained his senses from that punch, and when he saw Xu Xian's back to him, he pulled out a short knife from his waist and stabbed him violently. Xu Xian turned his head slowly, a pair of eyes, indifferent as moonlight.

In the public court, the man in the cloth took a few dozen boards, and explained the matter clearly, everything was Zhang De'an's instructions.

Xu Xian stood under the hall and stood with his hands in his hands. The cause and effect of this incident were already clear to him in his previous life. Naturally, it is impossible to be defenseless, let Zhang Dean be poisoned, and then go to save people and fight back. And the Three Emperors Patriarch Association is naturally not monolithic, Zhang Dean announced his poisonous plan, and Xu Xian got the news through the Cao Gang that night. Zhang De'an, Zhang De'an, I can't spare you this time.

Governor Chen glanced at Xu Xian under the hall and said, "Xu Xian, what do you think?" For this Xu Xian, his psychology is inevitably a little complicated. The position of his prefect was given by the prince of Liang, and in the eyes of others, he was a person from the Liang Wang faction, but Xu Xian had a close relationship with the son of King Pan. A few days ago, a private letter came from the Liang Palace, mentioning this matter, asking him to find an opportunity to rectify Xu Xian.

But he has other thoughts, not only the illusory things of conscience and morality, but also the fact that he really doesn't want to get involved in the factional struggle, he, the prefect of Suzhou, is really the same as staying in Suzhou, but in the two behemoths in the capital, he is just a pawn, and a few pawns who cross the river have a good end. He is about to be a father, and he doesn't want to be promoted and rich, he just wants to be safe and stable.

Chen Lun thought about these things, but he didn't care much about this poisoning case.

Xu Xian said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Lord Chen, the student is just at the right time, and the result needs to be judged impartially by the adult." "He has a meritorious reputation, and he can see that officials do not kneel.

Governor Chen said: "Okay, go and get Zhang De'an." He also commanded the officials and said, "Show Xu Gongzi a seat." ”

After a while, the official brought Zhang Dean to him. Zhang Dean knelt on the ground, naturally shouting wronged, and said with tears in his eyes: "The villain doesn't recognize this person at all, it must be Xu Xian who framed him, deliberately slandering the villain, and the adult wants to call the shots for the villain!" He knew that the matter was exposed, and he was in a constant battle, but he insisted that it was Xu Xian who slandered, but he squinted at Xu Xian, who was expressionless, and a chill arose in his heart.

The cloth said: "My lord, it was really Zhang Dean who handed over a bottle of medicine to the villain and promised the villain ten taels of silver." The villain really doesn't know that it's a crane top red inside!" Now, how can he be willing to hold this tank.

Now the two sides are biting, endlessly, if it weren't for the servants, they would almost fight.

Xu Xian sat on the side, just silent, now that the situation has shifted, the truth is all on his side. If this Chen Lun still has the royal law in his heart, he can naturally give the punishment he deserves. If you only think about the differences between factions and are bent on getting along with yourself, then whatever you say is useless. But he had already made up his mind in his heart, if Chen Lun was really a perverted law, he would cast a spell to destroy this Zhang De'an.

Governor Chen hesitated for a long time, and finally made up his mind. He was shocked and said: "Zhang De'an, until now, you still dare to quibble and deceive the official." Come on, let's play the 20 boards first. If not, hum. "It's a full show of official authority.

The officials on both sides made a "promise", stepped forward to press Zhang Dean down, and the water and fire sticks were all on it, which was a good fight.

Governor Chen and Xu Xian exhaled lightly. It is better to act impartially and not to interfere with the river water.

It was the first time that Xu Xian had seen an ancient official try a case. Now that I see it, although I will not be deterred by the so-called official authority, I can't help but sigh "good majesty". In the previous life, the police had to hide and hide when they beat people, which is like now, in broad daylight, they will be beaten.

Zhang Dean is naturally not a hero, he can't be beaten after a few hits, he screams for mercy and is willing to confess. It was also within Xu Xian's expectation that things would have such a result, but Zhang Dean confessed and said at the same time: "I don't know if this matter is a villain, and all the members of the Three Emperors Patriarch Association know about it in advance." As soon as he came to the lobby, he had already guessed that it must be a traitor from the Three Emperors Patriarch Association, and he had a high secret with Xu Xian, so that there was such a result. Naturally, he was holding a grudge, but now that the matter has been revealed, he naturally has to pull a few backs. The law does not hold the people accountable, but it can also reduce his own crimes.

Naturally, the members of the Three Emperors Patriarch Association of Governor Chen's Mansion came and knelt on the ground under the hall. looked at Xu Xian with hatred, and of course hated Zhang Dean even more. Human life is at stake, this is not a trivial matter!

Governor Chen was also angry, pointed at Zheng Taisheng's nose and said: "Zheng Taisheng, the Three Emperors Patriarch Association is a famous medical association in Suzhou, a group of doctors, who don't think about treating diseases and saving people, actually collude together to poison and kill people, what is the reason." ”

Zheng Taisheng trembled and said: "My lord, we really don't know that Zhang Dean is going to be poisoned! He just said that he would send the incurable patient to Baicaotang, my lord, we are wronged!"

Governor Chen looked at Xu Xian again and said, "Xu Xian, you are the victim of this case, what do you think?" He also didn't want to abolish the Three Emperors Patriarch Association, after all, it was related to many gentry in Suzhou. But if Xu Xian bites and doesn't let go, he won't be able to close the case. Now push this problem to Xu Xian, if Xu Xian refuses to let go, then no one can blame him.

Everyone's eyes fell on Xu Xian, thinking that this time the Three Emperor Patriarchs would be afraid that they would not be able to keep it, and their peers were enemies, even if they themselves had this kind of opportunity, they would definitely use it to attack their opponents.

Xu Xian didn't want to ruin the Three Emperors Patriarch Association, and said: "Lord Chen, only a despicable villain like Zhang Dean can come up with such a poisonous plan, and the other doctors of the Three Emperors Patriarch Association must have been deceived by him, so they will have such a result." The Three Emperors Patriarch Association has been established for a hundred years, and it has benefited the people of Suzhou a lot. ”

All the doctors were surprised, they didn't expect Xu Xian to speak for them. Governor Chen stroked his beard and said in his heart: This Xu Xian knows how to advance and retreat, not an aggressive person.

Then Governor Chen pronounced the verdict in court, confiscated Zhang De'an's family property, and distributed it to Lingnan. Although he was not sentenced to be the head of the Three Emperors Patriarch Association, he was a little disappointed, but he immediately shook his spirits. Zhang Dean was taken down with a bloodless face, and wanted to scold Xu Xian a few times, but he couldn't speak in his throat.

Although Xu Xian didn't have any sympathy for him in his heart, this kind of person who doesn't care about human life has nothing to sympathize with, but when Zhang Dean was about to be taken down, he still stepped forward and said: "Zhang De'an, it's your luck that you can't harm people this time." ”

Zhang Dean pretended to be tough and said: "Xu Xian, I lost this time, but don't be too arrogant." ”

Xu Xian said: "Do you believe that there is a netherworld in the world? There are gods in the first three feet, you were played by gods the first two times, if you don't reflect on it, you will inevitably sink into hell after death, and you will not be able to survive." Know that where the mind is ignorant, there must be a mirror that shines on the heart. ”

Zhang Dean wanted to refute, but looking at Xu Xian's calm eyes, there was no trace of smugness, but a lot of sighs, and he was speechless for a while. Xu Xian waved his hand and let the servants on both sides take Zhang Dean down. He didn't know how useful his words were, but he still wanted to be lost rather than simply kill the wicked. Even the meaning of hellfire is more about repentance than punishment!

Governor Chen frowned and said: "Xu Xian, you are also a scholar, but you can know that 'Zi is silent and strange'." ”

Xu Xian bowed and said, "The student knows." "I don't want to quarrel with Governor Chen on this, but" I can't do anything, and I have my own strange power to mess with it." "If good and evil are not rewarded, there will be selfishness.

Just when Governor Chen was about to announce his withdrawal, Xu Xian said: "Lord Chen, the student has another matter and wants to discuss it with the adult." Governor Chen was stunned for a moment, bowed his head slightly, and Xu Xian followed him to the back hall. Xu Xian took out a porcelain vase from his sleeve and put it on the table.

Chen Lun said casually: "What is this? Xu Xian, do you want to bribe this official?" In his mind, it was nothing more than some precious medicinal materials.

Xu Xian said: "This is for Mrs. Chen." ”

Chen Lun frowned and said, "What do you mean by this?"

Xu Xian said: "A few days ago, Mrs. Chen came to Baicaotang, and I saw that Mrs. Chen should be pregnant with a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses. Although he had told Mrs. Chen about this judgment, Mrs. Chen may not be able to believe it, even if she believed it at the time, she would doubt it afterwards, so she did not tell the news to the Chen prefect.

Chen Lun said: "Is this true?" When it comes to his wife, he will inevitably become nervous. Middle-aged people have a son, it is a great joy, but I am always afraid that it is not a son who is born, and now when I get the news, I can't help but feel happy in my heart, but I immediately said with a straight face: "Xu Xian, do you know what the sin is to lie about, and what does this medicine have to do with my wife?"

Xu Xian smiled and said: "The student dares to use the Baicaotang as a guarantee, if it is not right, Master Chen can go and tear down my signboard." Although this is a great joy, but the dragon and phoenix fetus will not be easy to produce, this bottle of pills is a special fetal pill made by Baicaotang, which can keep the safety of adults, mothers and children. ”

Chen Lun looked at the small porcelain vase on the table, and felt precious. He had already heard of the name of Xu Xian's divine doctor, and compared to Lin'er, who was about to be born, what King Pan of Liang was not in his consideration. But he asked again: "Xu Xian, if it is really as you said, this mansion is here to thank you first, but you have other things, you might as well talk about it." ”

Xu Xian said: "Another thing is to ask my lord to appoint me as the head of the Three Emperors Patriarch Association." ”

Chen Lun frowned and said, "Are you trying to bribe me with this medicine?"

Xu Xian said calmly: "Students don't dare, these two things are unrelated, one is the responsibility of being a doctor, no matter what, I will respect the adult." And Ling one is Xu Xian's own request. ”

Chen Lun said: "Xu Xian, this mansion is also from the imperial examination, and he is hand-appointed by the saint. I'll advise you a couple of words today. You are also a famous person, and you have also studied in the Hajj Academy, and you have a great future, if you can get the first, you will naturally have endless glory in the future. Why be a doctor and covet a small leader of the Three Emperors Patriarch Association?"

Xu Xian said: "Thank you for your care, this autumn, the students plan to enter the first, if they can be lifted, they will go to the capital." But now that I am a doctor, I have to do my duty. The doctor is the heart of the parents, and the officials are also called the parents officials. Although the status is very different, the mind is slightly closer. Xu Xian's request is definitely not for his own selfishness, and he also asks the adults to be aware of it. "The greatest sorrow of the Chinese people is that they always encounter a group of parents who have no parents' hearts!

Governor Chen saw that his expression was frank, and he thought of Xu Xian's many righteous deeds when he came to Suzhou, and these Three Emperor Patriarchs were really not worth mentioning in his eyes. Finally, he said, "Okay, this government will promise you." ”

Xu Xian was overjoyed in his heart, got up and bowed, and said, "Thank you, sir." ”

Governor Chen announced in the hall again, "Zheng Taisheng, you are not well managed, and it is no longer appropriate to take on the position of the head of the association." From today on, Xu Xian Xu Hanwen will serve as the head of the Three Emperors Patriarch Association. ”

The people in the Three Emperors Patriarch Association looked at each other, but the prefect gave an order, and they couldn't refute it, Nuo Nuo should be.

When I arrived in front of the yamen, the sky was still drizzling.

Xu Xian beckoned all the doctors and said: "It's rare to get together today, please go to the Three Emperors Patriarch Temple together, I have something I want to announce." "As soon as he became the head of the meeting, he took out the head of the meeting, although he was a little anxious, but after they went back, they pondered how to deal with themselves together, but they scattered people's hearts. It's better to finalize what you're going to do first.

The prefect's Yu Wei is still there, and no one wants to offend Xu Xian, the new leader, although there is some bad feeling in his heart, but without people like Zhang De'an, naturally no one will object. It's just a commotion, and no one says not to go, but there is no intention of going.

Zheng Taisheng said: "Since the capital of the meeting said so, then let's go!" He was originally a mediocre good man, although he was replaced by the head of the meeting, he was the one who had the least opinion. Thinking about being held accountable by the prefect just now, he is relieved that he is not the head of the meeting now.

Since someone responded, and he was the head of the previous meeting, everyone was Jingcong. So Xu Xian, the youngest walked lightly in front, and followed the shopkeeper of a big pharmacy in Suzhou City behind, and passers-by saw it. Xu Xian thinks that he is not a person with leadership qualities, and he has never even been a class cadre in his previous life.

After crossing over, I didn't think about dominating the martial arts and dominating the world, I just wanted to finish what I wanted to do as soon as possible. But now leading this group of "little brothers" on the street, there is also a sense of majesty. Hungry, in fact, it should be the "old brother", the average age of the gang behind him is more than forty years old, and he is not yet twenty years old.

Xu Xian shook his head and smiled, the charm of power lies here! This is just a small meeting. If it is really a high-ranking official and a general, one person calls, and ten thousand people respond, then what kind of feeling? But after all, that is not what he wants to pursue, so take this opportunity to solve this matter in one go!

Passing by Baicaotang, Xu Xian greeted Wu Renjie first and asked him to come along. He also instructed his subordinates to bring with them the medical books that had been prepared.

Wu Renjie looked at this scene in surprise and said, "Shopkeeper, what's going on?"

Xu Xian said with a smile: "The prefect has appointed me as the head of the Three Emperors Patriarch Association. Wu Renjie originally thought that he was just joking, but when he saw that the faces of these doctors behind him were quite unnatural, he believed it. Wu Yulian said happily: "Brother Xu, you are really the leader, you are so powerful!"

Xu Xian smiled, went upstairs to find Xiaoqing, and asked for something else. led everyone to the temple of the Three Emperors Patriarch.

The composition of the Three Emperors Patriarch Association is very special, between the club and religion. This temple was also built by a lot of people, and they have been receiving incense money from the people for many years as membership dues. There are also often some righteous acts during the New Year's holidays, such as soup porridge and medicine.

The antique temple door is pasted with the door god, Xu Xian can feel the aura on it, but now he doesn't have to take it to heart, he stepped forward and pushed open the temple door, came to the west side of the main hall, and sat down in the hall used for gatherings.

Xu Xian and Zheng Taisheng naturally sat on the top, and everyone looked at each other, not knowing what Xu Xian wanted to say? Zheng Taisheng rubbed his hands and said: "Doctor Xu, this time thanks to you can keep the Three Emperors Patriarch Association, I have offended a lot before, please bear with me! But I don't know what you are doing by letting us come here?"

Xu Xian stood up and said, "Don't talk about it, I invite you to come here today, just for one thing." Uncle Shi, send the medical book to all the doctors. ”

Wu Renjie carried a small box, and when he heard this, he took out a part of the compiled medical books and handed them to the doctors present. The doctors got the medical book and looked through it, with different expressions. Some immediately watched it with fascination. Some frowned, disagreeing with those medical theories that were ahead of the times, but they inevitably memorized them silently when they saw those rare prescriptions.

But there are all doctors here, and there is hardly anyone who is not interested in these medical books. But what is even more surprising is that Xu Xian is so young, how to compile such a medical book. Zheng Taisheng said with some excitement: "Doctor Xu, did you write this yourself?"
