Chapter 38 The thirty-eighth return to the medical country hand smoker servant Fengge Mochou lake turmoil helpless

Ji Yun came out according to the order, and rode back to the governor's office.Thinking that if he met Liu Tongxun first, he would pass on Ye Tianshi's good medical knowledge immediately, so it would be more convenient to tell Master Ye to wait in the signing room first, and then ask Liu Tongxun, so Yudao came to the signing room first.The entire team of Yin Jishan's Golden Hood has moved out here. Many important officials of the imperial court lived in this courtyard. Fan Shijie, the temporary governor of the south of the Yangtze River, has many daily official errands on his shoulders. It is inconvenient to do errands here. A teacher surnamed Niu was in charge of the official files of the files sent to the governor's office from all over the country, and forwarded them to Fan Shijie.Master Niu was sitting alone smoking a cigarette. When he saw Ji Yun coming in, he got up and greeted him with a smile. When he asked about Ye Tianshi, he smiled and said, "That's a headless fly. After eating enough and smoking enough opium, I go to see you." Make friends and say, "Tete invited me to Nanjing. A man called me to Pilu Courtyard. It turned out that the patient was himself! Mr. Liu's illness will be fine within ten years. It is often a noble person's trouble. It is not worth my attention." , I don’t have any patients, I’m a doctor!” Ji Buy thought about Ye Tianshi’s slovenliness, couldn’t help laughing, and said, “Where is he now?”

"At the governor's office to patrol and arrest Si Dongyuan!" Mr. Niu said: "The inspector killed the chief daughter-in-law, and set up a table in the lower room of the East Court to entertain guests for the funeral. Ye Tianshi was in this courtyard with the stables, the east toilet, and the water bearers. They all get along well. I told him to join in the fun, please sit down, and I will ask him to go." Ji Yun said: "I sat in front of the emperor for half a day, and I also want to evacuate - you just do your own work. "Master Niu is still eager to lead the way, Ji Yun said: "I have heard the suona ringing in the distance, and you can get there by looking for the sound. Once you go here and close the door, it's not good."

Speaking of Ji Yun's coming out of the courtyard, the sound of Shenghuang preaching came faintly across several courtyards.Follow the sound to the east, across a large courtyard in the patrol hall, and then to the east are the car garage, the stables, the vegetable cellar, and the slaughterhouse for the meat of the yamen's big house.There were broken sedan chairs, rotten cars, piles of utensils and sundries in several large courtyards. Ji Yun walked through the quadruplet and walked through a corner door. The sound of the suona was suddenly loud and loud.When I saw it, there were two drummers, each sitting at a table of eight immortals, with messy drinks and cups on the table, and four drummers each wearing filial piety hats, all of them were flushed with suffocation, their necks were swollen, they were pitching up and down, and they were blowing desperately. .There are four mat sheds in front of the low houses where the yamen servants live. They are dressed in long robes and jackets, and the yamen servants wear colored jackets.

Ji Yun opened his eyes and searched for Ye Tianshi across the table, but he couldn't find him.The mourner was on duty in the yamen. When he saw him come in, he thought it was a friend mourning at first. When he looked closely, it was Ji Yun. He was startled. , The dog and the wife are mourning, it is a crime to alarm the master." "What is the crime of birth, old age, sickness and death?" Ji Yun first came here from the emperor's drive from the Huashen Temple, and felt his eyes were blurred. He disturbed the scene for no reason. He smiled apologetically and then stopped, "I heard the mournful music here, I walked here—is Ye Tianshi there? Are you related to him?"

"The little one and Dr. Ye are both from Yangzhou, and they recognize their god-in-law." Liu Fugui said, "The dog woman has suffered from postpartum disorders for several years. I am lucky to know Dr. Ye. He came from Yangzhou to treat the disease. Who knows that she didn't Fu, I left after walking halfway..." She wiped her tears as she spoke, "My family is not well-off, and it costs a few dozen taels to send Shu back, so I'll just send it here, I just feel sorry for my little grandson... Doctor Ye also donated a few taels of silver, and the old man is also sad, crying in front of the door!"

Ji Yun looked along the coffin shed, the coffin bed was surrounded by paper flowers and white banners, and in front of the ever-burning lamp were all kinds of melons and fruits for Zhang Shui, Lu Feng and others.The young woman was only about twenty years old, but Ye Tianshi took off the veil over her face, and cried bitterly by her side.The spirit guards looked to be the elder relatives and natal family of the deceased. Seeing Ye Tianshi looking like a mourning concubine, crying loudly and looking at the young dead woman with his arms around his body, all of them were disgusted and embarrassed, but Ye Tianshi was a royal servant. Regardless of his identity, he had no choice but to swallow his anger.Ji Yun also felt that this person surnamed Ye was outrageous, even if he cried his wife, he shouldn't be so kind. Seeing Liu Fugui coming over with a spirit card, he expected to ask him to order the God Lord. He felt that there was only two taels of silver in his arms, and he handed it over. When he went up, he raised the ink pen.

"Lord Ji, slow down!" Ye Tianshi stopped crying suddenly, patted the dust on his knees, and said to Liu Fugui: "Your wife is fainting, she just died, not really dead. Hurry up, there are shoes on the soles of your shoes." I don’t have an awl for my son, bring it! A sewing needle is also fine! Hurry up, why are you so dazed?” Liu Fugui was still in a daze, and even the drummer stopped playing. More than a hundred eyes stared at the doctor blankly, like a ghost emerging from the ground.Only then did Ji Yun know that Ye Tianshi took the pulse in the name of crying, and remembered the story of Prince Bian Que and Guo, and hurriedly said: "Follow the doctor's advice, don't hesitate!" Bring some, the more the merrier!"

"Ah... ah!" Liu Fugui nodded in agreement as if understanding but confused, turned his face and ran into the room, only to hear the whirring and clattering, and he didn't know how to toss it, but he came out holding a fingertip iron stick used by a female prisoner, and said "You don't even have needles and awls. This thing is also sharp. Can it work?" "Succeed, it will work!" Ye Tianshi snatched a dozen of them with his hands, and burned them with the flame of the ever-burning lamp until he grinned at his teeth when his hands were so hot that he put them on the altar paper. Ji Yun expected that he would pierce the middle acupoint first, but Ye Tianshi took off the dead man's shoes and socks even though he tore and dragged, aimed at the Yongquan acupoint on both feet, and gnashed his teeth and plunged in.Then prick Zusanli, Chi, Guan, Cun and other acupoints, and asked everyone to avoid them, and "chucked" tore open the skirt of the woman's clothes, pricked the shoulders, arms and arms under the breasts, some even Ji Yun couldn't recognize the acupoints, The technique is as fast as a master's fencing, which is dizzying.Ye Tianshi didn't say a word, picked up the pen and scratched on the yellow mounting paper, and said: "Grab the medicine, boil the water here and wait!"

Liu Fugui saw his daughter-in-law lying motionless on the bed with her breasts open and her abdomen naked. She really didn't look good, and she was suspicious. Seeing her son in a daze, he scolded: "I still don't get a piece of clothes to cover her!" Then he handed the prescription to a Yamen servant, said: "Good brother, help me run. My legs are weak now." Ji Yun kept staring at the young woman, and saw that the color seemed to be not so sallow, and her lips were covered with rouge I can't see any difference.Ye Tianshi drank his tea and took a few steps, looked at the woman again, threw the tea cup away, poured a glass of shochu, approached the coffin, but still did not inject needles into the person, he lifted his ears one by one and tugged, Shaking his head, he opened his chin and poured the glass of wine into it. Then he slapped his face twice and cursed, "Damn, I don't believe you're really dead!"

Everyone looked at him, some saw him as a scumbag, and felt sullen, some were surprised, and some covered their mouths, wanting to laugh but not daring.Ji Yun suddenly cried out: "Wake up!" Hu Fugui was startled, and when he stared fixedly at it, the young woman groaned, like a sigh, like a groan, like a gasp, her starry eyes slightly opened and her lips fluttered, as thin as gossamer Ban said: "I... where is this?..." There was a dead silence at the banquet at first, and someone shouted: "Heavenly doctor, save the king and living Bodhisattva!" Then the crowd exploded, and everyone surrounded Ye Tianshi...

... Ji Yun took Ye Tianshi to the signing room, and while asking Master Niu to find new clothes for Ye Tianshi, he informed the palace that Ye Tianshi was called and went in immediately to show the queen's pulse.He was also taught the system of kneeling three times and kowtowing nine times, and bowing to give way, which Yin Jishan had taught countless times, but Ye Tianshi still did it poorly, and he couldn't teach it anyway.Ji Yun had no choice but to say: "Kneel more, kowtow more and call it... talk-this-this...like a girl who hasn't come out of the cabinet, in short, it's better to be gentle-like you just treated Liu Fugui's daughter-in-law, making her The Queen's body cured her disease, which is not as good as yours... As for the injection of medicine, syndrome differentiation and treatment, and how to use the medicine, there is no need to be taboo-I have learned your medical skills, and the difference between monarchs and ministers is great. Rutian, I am most afraid of your disrespect." "To treat the sick and save the sick, we must follow the medical principles, no matter how high or low you are. That's why my pharmacy is called 'Tong Ren Tang'." Ye Tianshi sucked his lips and said, "Like the Liu family, the corpse has been dead for three days, and there are people in it. , Pinching Yintang, that’s not healing, that’s playing with people... Don’t worry, Ji Zhongtang, I’m trying to keep the etiquette, and the right is to treat my old lady.” He was addicted to opium, so he was busy looking for a pipe, Burn smoke bubbles.Ji Yun looked at this brute with real talents and learning, it was funny, but he was really worried that he would be disrespectful, so he reminded him, knowing that talking about empty etiquette is like playing the piano to a cow, so he just said: "You think this way, because you are close to the heart. Now, what I'm talking about is politeness, be the same on the outside and inside, treat her as a patient when you hear her, and act like a pilgrim in a temple, right?" It can be said that Ye Tianshi "understands", he is too addicted to cigarettes, and Bu Yi has also arrived, he lifts the sedan chair and walks away.Ji Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and rushed to the North Study to meet Liu Tongxun.Originally wanted to say a few words and rushed to the palace to take care of him, but he was surprised when he entered the door, Gao Heng and Qian Du were talking to Liu Tongxun!Gao Heng's iron rope was wrapped around his neck, and Qian Du's wooden yoke was on his shoulders. They were all wrapped in yellow silk, but they didn't kneel down. They sat side by side on the wooden scorpion.Liu Tongxun was also not in a case-trial pattern. He sat on the east wall opposite, Liu Yong stood sideways, and Huang Tianba stood a little farther away, neither humble nor overbearing.Gao Heng Qian Du looks fine, his clothes are neat, and he doesn't look embarrassed, but he hasn't shaved his head for more than a month, and his hair is about an inch long before braiding.They all looked a little panicked, like two beasts who were cautiously afraid of falling into the pie.Seeing Ji Yun coming in, the two of them thought it was a decree to deal with them, but suddenly they trembled in shock, their faces became extremely pale, and they didn't speak.Seeing Liu Tongxun stand up and give up his seat, Ji Yun was no different, and his face was restored. "I just met the emperor, and the emperor asked me to come and see your bones!" Ji Yun said to Liu Tongxun, "Is Ye Tianshi's medicine okay?" It doesn't matter. After using his medicine, he seems to feel more refreshed, less stuffy, and it doesn't seem to have any miraculous effect." Ji Yun nodded while listening, looked at Gao Qian and the two, deeply moved.This is such a familiar friend. Usually when they meet, they hold hands and clap their shoulders, joke and joke, and talk about everything, but in a second, they become prisoners of iron chains, and their identities are like a cloud and mud.I don't even know where to start with a word of comfort. "I called you here, that's what I said just now." Liu Tongxun's face was expressionless, "The two confessed differently, and they are still quibbling. Not only will it not help the matter, but it may trigger the wrath of the Holy One You say that I, Liu Tongxun, do not talk about personal relationships. You are wrong. In the thirteenth year of Qianlong, I found out that you embezzled 3,200 taels of salt at Gao Hengshan Customs. You, you Qiandu borrowed 30,000 jin of copper from Li Shiyao, sold it privately to a coppersmith, and got an interest of 7,000 taels of silver from it. I am guilty on behalf of my friends, and you don’t know how to repent, so you simply act recklessly!" He tapped the coffee table with his fingers, "The family property stolen by the two of them was less than 40,000 yuan, which is far from the facts we have found, not to mention there are many others. There is no account to check!" Gao Heng Qiandu moved uneasily.The iron chain wooden flail made a slight sound.Gao Hengdao: "The burning of the bank account is approved by the decree. Li Shiyao, Zhuang Yougong, Lu Zhuo, Le Min, E Shan, You Mingtang from the Ministry of Rites, and the dead Neqin and I will write down all the accounts we can remember. Submit it. Let’s just make a confession, please summon the boss to confront it on the spot, and then you will understand.” Qian Du said: “I am doing business as an official, and I am indeed guilty. I borrowed copper from Li Shiyao twice, except for making Buddha statues. Li Shiyao didn't know about it. The officials in the capital are poor, and they can't get along with many things. This is also helpless. If you are helpless, you are also guilty. If you don't ask Zhongtang to protect you, but ask Zhongtang to play for you, please die. If you can apologize to the emperor before you die , die in peace!" As soon as Ji Yun heard it, he knew that the two had different confessions.Gao Heng wanted to stir up the matter as much as possible, and all the courtiers trusted by Qianlong were not good people, making it a situation where "the law does not rule the crowd".Qian Du took all the blame, minimized the charges as much as possible, protected those who had money dealings, and pointed at them to excuse himself in front of Qianlong.Ji Yun scolded Gao Heng as an "idiot" in his heart, but felt sorry for Qian Du, and took out the smoking pot from his boots to light a cigarette, trying to calm himself down.Liu Yong said next to him: "Gao Heng listed the accounts with the adults in the court, three times before and after, the number, time, and the use of money, which cannot be justified." Liu Tongxun said: "I won't talk to them today-I just want to tell you , God’s power is unpredictable, God’s grace is hard to bear, and heaven’s scale is hard to measure. Honestly return all the stolen money to the treasury, be convicted according to the case, and the sentence will be lenient. I can still speak from it—the time for you is running out. Hand it over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice , under the three woods and five punishments, I'm afraid you can't bear it." "Yes." Qian Du bowed and answered with difficulty.But Gao Heng said: "It's just three woods and five punishments. It's not clear that I will be punished for nothing, and I will not accept it even if I die-Gao Heng also asks to see the emperor, please ask Master Zhongtang to play it." Liu Tongxun said: "I have already played it on my behalf, Your Majesty He said that every year there are thousands of people who go to prison and go to jail, and they can't afford to be summoned. However, the two of you are very kind, and the confession will be submitted to the imperial court along with the case file. Lord Xiaolan is also here, and he also knows: " The two looked at Ji Yun, and Ji Yun only nodded, and said with a sigh: "Since ancient times, except for the loyalty and treachery, the unjust prisons caused by political disputes. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, such corruption cases were all caused by myself. You broke yourself down. You actually failed the emperor's benevolence and fell into the fire pit. You have sinned in the sky, and you have nothing to pray for. It is more reliable to confess your sins from your own heart. If you commit a crime, ask the emperor to forgive you, depending on what kind of master the emperor is ?” "Your case is not going to trial in Nanjing. Tomorrow, we will send you back to Beijing by boat, and we will temporarily detain the beekeepers in the Dao Prison Temple." Liu Tongxun said, "I called you here to let me know about it. You have many friends in Beijing, and there are many people visiting the prison." There will be no less, don’t go around indiscriminately. Pleading guilty and confessing to move the heavens is the only way to survive. Some people show favor in their faces and think of making trouble in their hearts. Even if they really want to save you, they must be powerless. This narrow line of life is up to you if you want to kill it." After saying that, he ordered Huang Tianba to "take them there and detain them separately!" Then he said to Liu Yong: "You send Yulin Wei to Shaanxi's chief envoy to embezzle the victims for relief. Liang’s original manuscript, as well as Chief Minister Ah Shan’s defense statement are abbreviated. They must be sent to the emperor for review. The original text has been taken from me, and I will read it again.” Ji Yun didn't hear what his father and son were talking about. Looking at the backs of Gao Heng and Qian Du who were getting further and further away, he suddenly remembered the past when he and Qian Du drew lots together in Gaosheng Restaurant to order Hulu to drink pheasants and eat wine. He has no official career, no official duties and no concerns, so elated, it seems that in just a blink of an eye, the world has changed completely... Liu Tongxun yelled twice, and Ji Yun came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "I was thinking , I have a case of Hu Zhongzao, a case of Mr. Zhang, and a number of cases of rebellious documents. When you come to you, the criminal name case, the Qianliang case, and the assassination case of Fu Heng. The master's southward trip this time is full of cases. The case is actually ten times busier than in Beijing!" "I haven't gone to pay my respects to the emperor for two days. Although I don't have to go every day because of a special order, I really miss it in my heart when I'm so busy." Liu Tongxun said: "The emperor is so busy, you follow, I have to persuade you not to be too trivial Liu Tongxun died, and Zhang Tongxun and Li Tongxun." He suddenly felt that he had made a mistake and stopped immediately, "——let's go to the palace together, okay?" Ji Yun was worried about Ye Tianshi's disgrace, and said with a smile: " Sit in my big sedan chair, walk around, stay at your desk all day, look in the mirror, people in their fifties look older than Zhang Hengchen!" Just as the two said they wanted to leave, they saw two eunuchs staggering over with a white-haired old man in the distance, but it was Zhang Tingyu. "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here" the two of them thought of this sentence almost at the same time, and couldn't help looking at each other with wry smiles, thinking to themselves, the talkative old man's mouth is like a river, and he doesn't know when he will say it.Sure enough, when Yi let him enter the room, Zhang Tingyu opened his mouth as soon as he was seated, but it was Hu Zhongzao who he said: "...the emperor summoned me the second day after he came to Nanjing, and visited my residence in person on the third day. They all asked about Hu Zhongzao. Show me "Jian Mo Sheng Poetry Notes". I will play back to the emperor. This is really a villain with two ends. He is the Juren I took, the Jinshi who was taken by Hubei Xilin. He came to me and said that Ertai is full of people. , Hypocritical, I said that Ertai and we have no grudges, if you speak badly of people in front of me, you must speak badly of me when you go to others. Then you don’t come to see me for some reason. Such a person with no restraint and no sentiment Can't write good poetry at all!" Then, let's start from the beginning, from Yao's "remonstrating drums and slandering trees", to Confucius punishing Shao Zhengmao, King Wen of the Western Zhou Dynasty sanctioned heresy and established "defamation law", all the way to the Southern Dynasties literati's "frivolous" monarch, Sui, Tang and Five Dynasties poetry " Slandering the emperor and cursing the world"... He is full of energy, and he is really proficient in anecdotes and easy to remember, but his conclusion is very strange. Gu, that's why people's hearts are gradually confused. When there is a turbulent wind and the four directions respond, it will be out of control. The Mongols didn't figure it out until the Yuan Dynasty subjugated the country. They can conquer the world immediately, but they can't rule the world! !" Then, he talked about "the difference between remonstrance and slander", what is "returning beauty to the king" and "keeping sincerity in the heart"... Liu Tongxun has the case file in hand, and he can read it while listening.I only feel sorry for Ji Yun, a civil servant leader who has read the classics and history and compiled the Siku Quanshu, who bites the bullet and listens to his master's "Three Character Classic". Zhang Tingyu told the ancient records to the two military ministers in the Governor's Yamen, and Ye Tianshang had some troubles seeing the queen's doctor.Traditionally, when an imperial physician treated a concubine, the rule was that the imperial physician would kneel on the wooden stilt outside the couch, only stretch out his hand through the curtain, concentrating on his pulse and pondering over and over again, then bowed his head and withdrew from the concubine's consideration of the plan. He made up his mind to kowtow more and salute more, with the purpose of "talking like a woman", and he was very friendly when he first met Qianlong. He murmured not knowing what to say, then he pondered for a moment and shook his head, put the queen's arm, and kowtowed to Qianlong when he came over, and the price of pounding garlic was countless.Qianlong was not tired of such people, he said with a smile to Hong Zhou: "Look, this was trained by Yuan Chang, and he kowtows as soon as he enters the door, no matter how many kowtows!" It must have been taught by Ji Xiaolan." Ye Tianshi said without hesitation, "Master Ji also told the little one to talk like a woman, this is really impossible - the villain wants to report to the emperor, he wants to see the empress's complexion, how much to say?" In a word, ask the sick—whether the emperor will be gracious or not?" Qianlong Hongzhou was slightly taken aback when he heard Ji Yun's "be like a woman" was laughing, and heard that he asked for "enyun" and so many things.Hong Zhou said: "Except for being critically ill, the empress has always been just taking pulse and treating diseases. Why are you so special? The doctors in the imperial hospital are not as many as you." "Only by feeling the pulse, I think your mother's disease is in the stomach." Ye Tianshi didn't even bother to kowtow, and said straightly: "There are four wonderful things about doctors, they are called gods, saints, craftsmen, and ingenuity. Seeing and knowing are called gods." Hearing and knowing is called a sage; asking and knowing is called work; knowing the pulse is called ingenuity. If one of the four wonderful things is missing, he is not a good doctor. Without seeing, hearing, and asking, he is Hua Tuo, and he is just showing off , try his luck with other people's diseases. I worshiped a famous doctor. He tied the patient's pulse with five silk threads and checked the pulse. Improper diet, the man said he was overeating, and the woman said she was on a diet. It is inevitable to damage the stomach and spleen. The stomach and spleen are damaged, the heart is dizzy, and the life is weak. According to this theory, the symptoms, I will never be wrong. The second is excessive lust, which hurts the kidneys, damages the kidneys, damages the will, and damages the kidney water. He groaned endlessly...and he would never say anything wrong. I wanted to test my master's ability, and I hugged a sheep and tied it up, but he also made such nonsense! Isn't this just playing around with human lives? Seeing and asking, one is indispensable, let alone one. I have passed three items! Maybe the young ones are not good at learning, so they are not as good as the imperial physicians. There are many imperial physicians around the emperor, wouldn't it be more convenient to invite them?" What he said in this high-level theory is clear and sound, and there is nothing ridiculous about it.The problem lies in the last sentence. Putting on the airs of a famous doctor in front of the emperor is a way to rob Qianlong.Qianlong was laughing when he heard his words of "tying the sheep", and suddenly changed his face.Hong Zhou shouted: "Master Ye, do you have a mad disease? Why do you talk to the emperor like this?" Qianlong said: "Those who eat hair and practice the soil, who doesn't know that loyalty and filial piety are the first, and you and your parents talk like this?!" "Your Majesty, my lord, there are six ways that a doctor can't cure you." Ye Tianshi was so angry that he forgot all about learning how to be a pilgrim from a woman, so he immediately stepped forward, "It's easy to do a doctor, and the medicine changes according to the disease. , real, string, tight, flood, slight, sinking, slow, wall, late, group, wet, weak. Not only varies with people, but also varies with the four seasons. Spring strings, summer, autumn hairs and winter stones. Now it is autumn, the Queen's The pulse condition looks like "floating", but in fact it is light and fast. In other seasons, it is a floating pulse! The principle of curing diseases and fighting wars. Leading the six armies to fight diseases, so people who believe in witches or not believe in doctors can't be cured. Insufficient qi is dead, food and clothing are unwell, lightness of life and heavy wealth are dead. Arrogance and unreasonableness are the first of the six—get it?" It is still talking about illnesses and blasphemy, showing a little ignorance of human affairs, and pointing directly at Qianlong's "arrogance and disregard for reason", just like Lao Tzu training his son to ask "Do you understand?" He was about to explode in rage, scratching his ears and scratching his cheeks, thinking about how to persuade him.The queen said loudly in the room: "Your Majesty, reward him with medical money and tell him to go. My illness is nothing to worry about, and you are not worth being angry!" Said: "Niangniangniangniang! Even if you don't call me 'Wang', can I ask you a few words?" The queen said nothing. "Fever in the afternoon, dizziness, but some?" "Night dreams, palpitations, nightmares, restlessness all night, but there are?" "Wake up early and have a heartbeat, chest tightness and discomfort after Chen Shi, but there are?" "……some……" "Night sweats at night, wet chest and back, menstruation is delayed every three months, Gui water is intermittent, but there is no dysmenorrhea, but there are some?" "There are... even what I said earlier, there are..." Ye Tianshi lowered his head, digging at the cracks of the bricks with his fingers, murmuring something.Looking at this strange man, Qianlong and Hongzhou both felt that it would end badly.Ye Tianshi had returned to his usual demeanor, but he still kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, my lord! I get dizzy when I see a patient, and I think I am an emperor..." He suddenly became pitiful Xi, kowtowed his head and said: "I really want to cure the disease-it's not called 'looking', so don't look... I wrote two prescriptions, the first one was taken for three days, and the first one was taken for three days, and the day and a half was stopped. It’s best to stop too, the empress feels very good appetite and wants to eat, then use the second prescription, after taking the medicine for two hours, start eating slowly. Don’t make mistakes, don’t believe the words of quack doctors..." Knock She lowered her head and asked again: "Your Majesty is thinner, isn't your complexion yellow?" Qianlong knew at this time that this person was devoted to medical treatment, and he knew nothing about the world and official affairs.Hearing his disrespectful words like "I want to eat" and "I am the emperor", I didn't get angry anymore, and just said lightly: "You are thin, and you look good. You just write the prescription, I hope you don't make mistakes." When the prescription was presented, the second prescription was ordinary, just angelica, astragalus, yellow celery, hawthorn slices, aurantiium, cicada slough, and added a sentence "use this prescription for a month, and then eat Korean ginseng".The first prescription is different. In addition to licorice and Yinqiao, there are three cents of passionflower leaves, one cent of ephedra, one cent of Jishi, and one cent of Datura flower. A medicine for tigers and wolves", Qianlong read it, and silently handed the prescription to Hongzhou.Hong Zhou didn't dare to say a word after seeing it. "Reward him with twenty taels of silver." Qianlong said, "Ye Tianshi, step down!" Ye Tianshi kowtowed here to receive the reward. Seeing that he was about to leave, Qianlong asked again: "The first prescription is for diarrhea, and the second is for tonic. You didn't make it upside down, did you?" , Believe it or not, Your Majesty Tian!" He was still too polite and his words were too rude, Qianlong couldn't do anything about him, so he couldn't help laughing, Hongzhou waved his hands and said, "Go, go!" Ye Tianshi kowtowed again.Qianlong then went into the back room, opened the curtain, and seeing the queen struggling to get up, he hurriedly held her down, tucked the corner of the quilt for her, and the pillow was evenly padded, and asked, "How are you? Are you feeling better now? Still dizzy Are you bored?" "It's okay. I'm just used to dizziness, and it's like this all year round." The queen smiled and said, "Don't look at me sick, you haven't left this study these days, and it's rare in your life to relax your heart. Hearing that you meet people outside, you are so happy. I am also happy, you are sad and angry, I think you are benevolent and smart, there is always a way. It is really rare to be so close to you for such a long time." Qianlong said: "Hurry us back to Beijing, you move to nourish your heart Dian, when you come to Yuanmingyuan in summer, you also live in my room. This is called sharing joys and sorrows—what do you think of this Ye Tianshi’s medical skills? He is a man from the mountains and fields, and he is not familiar with etiquette, and he has a lot of weird things to say, so you can laugh it off.” Queen Shaking his head: "This is a man with real skills. He favors a lot of patients, doesn't pay attention to etiquette, ordinary people don't care about it, and is used to speaking inappropriately. Don't be angry with him, this man is just talkative and has no evil intentions. Son……" Qianlong smiled and said: "He had a few words, let others say it, and killed him on the spot. I really wanted to slap him when I heard it, but I didn't bother him anymore. Cao Cao killed Hua Tuo, so I want to imitate Cao Aman?—— However, his prescription is too daring, I still have to submit it to the imperial hospital, let the imperial physicians consider it, ask the eunuchs to try it, if there is no major hindrance, then you can use it——Also, the matter of Wei Jiashi that the fifth brother mentioned last time , you don’t need to worry, the fifth child has already protected the mother and child, and when you return to Beijing, you will take the child and raise it yourself. After all, there are house thieves in the palace, and house thieves make housework, and there are thieves in every dynasty. Don’t forgive me lightly, this is your words, I will just listen to you.” Hong Zhou listened to the conversation of the emperor and empress husband and wife outside, such a harmonious conversation, full of benevolence and warmth, his heart was also very touched, and he bowed and said through the veil: "My lady, don't worry, I will draw lots for you in the Linggu Temple. On the lottery of Daji. Fu Heng also said in the lottery of the accidental accident that the fifth son came to Nanjing because he broke into the palace and took away his elder brother. , there is an old ashamed tree in Sunjiaqiao, Wuxi, which has died. This year, its branches and leaves suddenly flourished. What's even more strange is that only a cluster of winter jasmine flowers appeared on the old tree. , the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, your catastrophe has also receded, and the empress will accompany the emperor to watch it with Lafayette!" "Uncle Wu is a liberal man. Not only do I not care about breaking into the palace, but I also thank you?" The queen said through the veil, her voice became extremely weak for a moment, "The emperor is busy with state affairs, and my brothers will rely on Uncle Wu in the future." There is a lot of time, and the old locust tree grows in spring, which is not uncommon. Even if it is auspicious, I didn’t plan to go to Wuxi. How many people will be alarmed and how much money will be spent by the royal driver? You should persuade the emperor not to go.” Hong Zhou smiled and said, "The southern tour is a grand ceremony. The dead trees are in spring and the flowers are embracing the spring flowers. If you don't go and see, you will not live up to the auspiciousness bestowed by God? The money is not much, even if it is spent, it will still be scattered to the people's homes. Madam It's just too careful." The queen was speechless after hearing this, and said for a while: "Ask Fifth Aunt to come in often, so that our sisters-in-law can talk more to relieve boredom." Immediately Hongzhou resigned, Qianlong had been sitting for a long time, and wanted to move around, so he and he went out of the side study of the main bedroom of the palace, and walked slowly along the west bank of Mochou Lake. "Old Five," Qianlong asked as he strolled, looking at the vast blue water of the lake, "There are only two brothers here, and there are billions of people in the world. In terms of family affection, there is no one better than you and me. Regarding the matter of favoring your mother, which woman do you think it is?" Expenditure?" Hong Zhou narrowed his eyes, as if the water was dazzling, blinked twice, licked his lips and said, "It's hard to say... You know, I am a loose person, and I don't care much about state affairs and housework. This time the matter is imminent, and I am in a hurry Let me protect my elder brother first. It’s not that I’m really suspicious of Mr. Niu, but Mr. Na is going south with you. She’s not in Beijing, saying that she has pre-arranged arrangements. Not only does she not have the guts, she may not have the wisdom. I think, It's not necessarily a woman. The eunuchs are small-hearted, and they can't get along with any noble master. There are also people who make troubles and blame others... Your Majesty, this matter needs to be investigated, just like handling state affairs, you have to be careful Point, if there is an unjust case, the future generations will perform the civet cat in exchange for the prince in the Qing Dynasty. It’s not good. Ming Wuzong also had this kind of thing, it’s not good. The empress is the most virtuous and holy. She has a good body and bones, so you have no internal worries ;Ajia, Fu Heng, Liu Tongxun, Yin Jishan, Ji Yun, are all good ministers, and they take care of their errands well. If Fu Heng fights this battle well, you will have no external worries. It is difficult for an upright official to break up housework. If you don’t get confused, just be careful. gone." Qianlong nodded after hearing this, and said: "Good brother, what you said is true. Yi Ying's matter is over, and Jinchuan, big and small, I think it is easy to deal with. Fu Heng was assassinated, and Duo Yun came to cry for Qin Ting. It proves that Sha Luoben is already flustered. I have done my best in civil affairs and military preparations. Some people asked for a booklet, saying that the fortune of the country is now in full swing. But don’t you be vigilant about "the sun is in the middle of the sky"? Therefore, the peak of "extreme prosperity" should be raised even higher. I have been diligently seeking treatment, but I have not been able to reach this peak, you think, once you reach the top of the mountain, you can see all the mountains, no matter which way you go, it will be a downhill road!" A gust of autumn wind blows past the lake, and in the distance, Shengqi Building, Diaoyutai Corridor twists and turns, and the folded reflections of the white walls, green tiles, Xiuting Pavilion and Red Pavilion are swaying on the lake. The blades of the fan are half rolled up and swelled with the waves, and the sound of the water is rustling and rustling. The lake is crystal clear, and even the algae at the bottom of the lake are swaying, as deep as ink-stained fog. "Autumn is high, and the wind is chilling to the bone." Hongzhou looked at the entrance of the palace.The courtiers who were waiting for Qianlong to meet him had already seen his two brothers, and they knelt down in a large area.Hong Zhou said: "There are too many things waiting for the emperor to take care of, please be sure to work hard and take care of yourselves. Things are difficult and difficult, and times change. Everything is on the shoulders of the emperor." Qianlong stood under the willow tree, Ren Qiufeng lifted his robes and looked at the turbulence of the lake with sadness and joy, and said for a long time: "The sky is difficult, I know. The sky is difficult, but I have to go on... It doesn't matter, I still have to go going down..." Hong Zhou didn't speak, the bronze horses in the palace were tinkling in the wind, and the rippling autumn waves rushed towards the shore one after another, and it seemed that the lake was not turbulent, as if the shore of the lake was going against the current... … "You go," Qianlong said, "tell them to come in and see me according to official order."
