Reverse Junhou

Chapter 13 Yidijing [2]

His Highness the Fifth Highness had kept his filial piety for more than a month, and not long after he left the palace, he heard everyone in the streets and alleys expressing emotion, and heard that Young Master was emotionally hurt.

Mr. Wen was devastated, Mr. Wen was suffering from hysteria, Mr. Wen couldn't beg to die, Zhao Fengci walked all the way through Dongfang, and Mr. Wen Xuechao, who was said by the neighbors, had committed suicide more than ten times but failed.

Zhao Fengci was dressed in ordinary clothes and hurried through the streets and alleys.Ah Shen closely followed his master's pace, almost failing to keep up.If it weren't for the damage to his knees from the night vigil for Zhaoyi, the master would have already used his lightness skills to fly up to the house, avoiding the gossiping crowd on the street.

Ordinary princes are raised in the deep palace unless they seal the mansion as adults, and are rarely allowed to leave the palace, but Zhao Fengci is a little different.He is in charge of the Jingyang family's superb martial arts, and he has no mother and concubine to guard him strictly. It is not difficult for him to sneak out of the palace by avoiding the eyes and ears of Habayashi guards.

Hearing the news from Concubine Yue today, he took Ashen out of the palace privately and went to the east of the city to find someone.

Zhao Fengci had already heard that Concubine Yue's father was his grandfather's lieutenant general back then, but he did not expect that Concubine Yue was already the concubine's mother when she was still a nobleman.The concubine mother entrusted the younger brother to Concubine Yue to be raised, which shows that she has great trust in this person, and Concubine Yue took care of herself and the younger brother in every possible way after the concubine mother passed away.Zhao Fengci had a good impression of this woman.

Today is the full month of Zhao Fengci's filial piety for Zhaoyi in Jingyang. Concubine Yue waited at the gate of Renming Palace early and prepared fresh fish soup for him to nourish his body.He took the fish soup and was about to thank him when he found a folded copybook hidden at the bottom of the cup.

After Concubine Yue was promoted to the throne, there were many servants sent by the emperor to serve her.Concubine Yue must have something important to tell her, but because the wall has ears, she can only think of this method.

Zhao Fengci took Tangzhan and quietly hid the copybook in his sleeve.Concubine Yue smiled warmly, got on the sedan chair and left calmly.

He went back to his bedroom and unfolded the copybook when there was no one around, only to see a line of small characters written in lower script on it: "Pursue medicines for monarchs and ministers all over the world, starting with cold and hungry, my son must remember." This is clearly the handwriting of the mother and concubine.

To practice medicines for monarchs and ministers all over the world, starting with freezing and starvation, this poem has a lot of background.Zhao Fengci remembered that this was a sentence in Su Dongpo's "The Doctor" taught by Mr. Shi when he was in Zhenbei Prefecture.My husband said that the first thing to do is to treat the country, and the second is to treat people.The way to heal the country is to "frozen and hungry", that is, the disparity between the rich and the poor in the world should not be too great.If the common people are cold and hungry, there will be fewer poor and sick people from now on.

Why did the concubine mother warn herself with this poem?Zhao Fengci was puzzled.He lowered his head and looked at the copybook carefully, only to find that there was a line of writing on the back of the copybook.

This line of writing is very simple: "Yanruo moves the needle like a catty."

Yan Ruo transports needles like a catty, the concubine mother is saying that Yan Ruo, an ophthalmologist a hundred years ago, is exquisite in administering acupuncture.Zhao Fengci knelt in front of the coffin of his mother and concubine and fell into deep thought. The first sentence said heal the country, and the second sentence said heal people. If you want to heal people, you need to heal the country first. .

Perhaps for the sake of secrecy, the description of these two poems is quite cryptic.If Zhao Fengci hadn't grown up with General Zhenbei, he wouldn't have known the allusion.

The Jingyang family has guarded the northern border for Dafu since the founding of the country, but very few people still remember that the ancestors of the Jingyang family were once famous doctors in the previous dynasty.The ancestors of the Jingyang family had excellent medical skills and served as the local prefect after becoming an official.When he was in office, he was well governed, and the people in the prefectures and counties lived and worked in peace and contentment, and few people died of famine or freezing.

The ancestors resigned from office and retired in order to study medical skills intensively.Less than a year after resigning, the plague broke out in the county.The plague was a natural disaster, and it destroyed thousands of families in just a few months.Unexpectedly, the rich merchants in the city set prices high and set the price of the rice and grain they had collected at sky-high prices.

After the plague broke out, the ancestors of Jingyang led the younger generation in the family to treat diseases and save people day and night.However, if you save one person, ten people will die, and if you save ten people, a hundred people will die. In the end, it is still a drop in the bucket.The ancestor of Jingyang died of depression not long after this incident, and before he died, he was still regretting that he should have resigned from office and retired. Natural disasters are easy to disappear, but man-made disasters are hard to prevent.

In the following hundreds of years, men in Jingyang abandoned medicine and joined the army one after another, and the Jingyang family became famous all over the world.Now no one remembers that the Jingyang family had an ancestor who was a weak doctor with compassion.

In his spare time, his grandfather mentioned to himself that although the Jingyang family is a family of generals, there is a branch of the family that still follows the way of the ancestors to help the world and save people.This branch has now separated from the family, changed its surname to Yang, and opened a medical clinic in the east of the capital of Guangyang.The doctor of the medical hall and the town hall is a direct descendant of the Yang family, and a well-known ophthalmologist in Guangyang.

What is said in the copybook of the mother and concubine, you can find out when you go to the medical clinic.If it wasn't for this reason that he sneaked out of the palace, Zhao Fengci would not have known that Wen Xuechao had another affair.

He quickly scanned the surroundings, and saw a crowded pavilion standing in the corner, with four large characters written on it, Qingfeng Medical Hall.

There were people lined up at the entrance of the Qingfeng Medical Center, including beggars in scantily clad clothes, old women with hunched backs, and foreigners with their families and their mouths sitting on donkey carts.The servants in the clinic seem to be accustomed to this, and hang a red cloth on the chest of each sick patient with the twelve earthly branches drawn on it, and whoever is called will enter the clinic for consultation.At the door there is a servant who is cooking a pot of hot porridge. Those who have not yet been called can serve a bowl of meat porridge and sit aside and drink slowly.A group of beggars who were not seeing a doctor were also squatting and waiting, and the staff would serve a few bowls to the beggars from time to time.

Zhao Fengci took Ah Shen into the Qingfeng Medical Hall, and saw that the medical female apprentices in the hall were very busy dispensing medicines and writing prescriptions.

A servant saw Zhao Fengci walking into the hall. He was an extraordinary young master who didn't look like an ordinary young master, so he stepped forward and said respectfully, "Are you here for a doctor's visit or for medicine?"

"Excuse me, please tell the owner of your pavilion that I have something important to talk to him about."

"This..." The boy was a little embarrassed, "The owner of the Yang Pavilion is administering needles to a patient with an eye disease, and it will not be healed in a while. Why don't I bring you a cup of tea, and the young master sits and waits for a while." ?”

It was still early for Zhao Fengci to see, so he sat down in the inner room.The servant served tea, and moved a small screen for him, where he can see the scene of the hall clearly, and will not be disturbed by other people, it is quite clean.

After about three sticks of incense, Zhao Fengci heard footsteps behind him.Two people were arguing loudly and walking towards themselves, and it sounded like they were about to start fighting.

"Yang Shuyue, it doesn't mean that your needlework is like embroidery, just like twisting your fingers. Why did it hurt me so much today." A familiar voice complained.

"It's your own inability to use your eyes that makes you see Bai Yi. If you don't be more careful, I will control you to death." Another crisp voice hit back fiercely.

Seeing Zhao Fengci turn around and look at him, all the visitors shut their mouths.

Yang Shuyue stared at Zhao Fengci for a while, then turned to look at the people around her, a little unbelievable: "This is your cousin?"

Although Zhao Yansheng and Zhao Fengci had different mothers and concubines, they more or less resembled Emperor Jingyang in appearance, so they could easily be recognized as cousins ​​when standing together.Zhao Fengci was about to speak, but was directly interrupted by Zhao Yancheng: "He is, he is my distant cousin."

"Feng'er, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect to meet you in the medical hall by chance. How is uncle?" Zhao Yancheng coughed a few times, stepped forward and asked with concern.

"..." Zhao Fengci was silent for a long time, "my father is fine."

Yang Shuyue kept looking at the faces of the two of them, and then asked suspiciously: "Brother Feng, your family also runs a pawn shop?"

Before Zhao Yancheng could speak, Zhao Fengci said happily: "My father joins the army."

Zhao Yancheng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and cast a grateful look at Zhao Fengci.Yang Shuyue asked again: "The young master came to the medical center to look for me, but he is not healthy?"

Zhao Fengci said: "Doctor Yang's needle handling is like a catty, and I am famous for it."

Hearing this, Yang Shuyue's expression suddenly became solemn. He took Zhao Yancheng's hand and stuffed two medicine packs in his arms: "Take three medicines a day, and take three courses of treatment in total. Do not take medicine at night. Burning candles to study. Brother Feng, come with me, you can get lost."

Zhao Yancheng took the medicine given by Yang Shuyue, blinked at the expressionless Zhao Fengci, and "rolled off" numbly.

Yang Shuyue led Zhao Fengci into the inner courtyard of the medical hall, and got up to make tea for him after he was seated.When Zhao Fengci smelled the fragrance of tea, he was a little stunned for a moment: "This is Longqiu."

Longqiu tea is produced outside Yandang Pass, which means "Yandang Jing travels in the clouds and deserts, and Longqiu banquet sits in the rain".Unexpectedly, after a few years, everyone in Guangyang drank Longqiu.

"Just now His Highness said that I transport needles like a catty, that's absurd praise. For hundreds of years, only Dr. Yan Ruo can bear this name." Yang Shuyue laughed.

Zhao Fengci looked at the smiling little doctor opposite.Yang Shuyue looks older than herself, perhaps already past the age of weak crown.The whole humanities are weak, gentle and docile, exuding a faint bookish atmosphere.

Seeing Zhao Fengci staring at her, Yang Shuyue burst into laughter: "What is your Highness thinking?"

"Since you know who I am, you must have known Zhao Yancheng's identity a long time ago, why are you still acting with him?" Zhao Fengci asked.

Yang Shuyue poured tea for Zhao Fengci, with helplessness in her tone: "I did not know his identity when I first met the Fourth Highness. But his usual behavior and behavior are full of flaws. I am not a child, so I guessed it very early. But the Fourth Highness once told me that he always wears a mask in front of the world, and he can only be himself when he is around me. If I expose him, I will ruin the only place of comfort in his heart."

Somehow, when Zhao Fengci heard Yang Shuyue's words, the image of Wen Xuechao appeared in Zhao Fengci's mind again.

He remembered that the storyteller had said a passage about the dandy in this world, no one could compare to Mr. Wen's family.In spring, he brought a hundred servants up the mountain to enjoy the flowers; in summer, he had to send people hundreds of miles to rush to transport fresh fruits from the south of the Yangtze River and the Western Regions for him to taste; in autumn, two teams of artisans went to Beijing to weave cloud robes for him; There are more dragons than there are in the palace.

But the young man of the Wen family I saw was the half-rider who knelt on the ground and vomited after being drunk, the embarrassed mud monkey who fell from the tree and fell down with dust on his face, and the one who was afraid of being beaten by the princess and hid in the big house. The cowardly coward who didn't dare to come out from behind the tree was the young master whose eyes were red when he mentioned the people of his country.

It was Wen Xuechao who had lost his mother since he was a child, and it was Wen Xuechao who laughed when he said that no one in the world treated him sincerely.

If, as Yang Shuyue said, Wen Xuechao also took off his mask in front of him, and he has always trusted him.

When Zhao Fengci was thinking wildly, Yang Shuyue had already taken out a wooden box from the back room.There are no complicated mechanisms on the wooden box, only a small hole that will be ignored if you don't pay attention.

"Since Your Highness has figured it out, I will take a drop of blood and drop it in this small hole." Yang Shuyue said solemnly: "The Yang family has kept this thing for the Zhenbei Mansion for many years, and after three years, when His Highness weakens the crown, it will be released." It's time for the property to return to its original owner. It is Zhaoyi's last memory and destiny to come down to find Shuyue. I hope that opening the box today can point out the future for Your Highness."

Zhao Fengci bit his own finger, and bright red blood overflowed from the fingertip.Yang Shuyue was sitting on the opposite side of Zhao Fengci, waiting for His Royal Highness to move, but heard Zhao Fengci casually asking: "I have a friend who suffers from hysteria, can Dr. Yang prescribe a prescription for me later, I will grab some Bring him the medicine?"

Yang Shuyue frowned: "Why are so many people suffering from this madness recently? I heard that the eldest son of the Wenfu also suffered from hysteria, and every day he put himself like a tree in the yard. I don't think it's hysteria at all, it's just suffering from hysteria." I can't think about the excitement."

"When I mention that Mr. Wen, I get angry. Do you know why he has such a madness?" Yang Shuyue said angrily, "It turned out to be Yinqiao who sneaked out of my medical clinic. This Yinqiao usually looks at me. Keeping yourself safe and doing things neatly. I didn’t expect to go to hang out with this kind of people. No wonder I didn’t come back after I left. Qingfeng Medical Center has lost a female doctor in charge for no reason, and there are not enough manpower recently.”

Zhao Fengci was speechless. It turned out that the woman who made Wen Xuechao go crazy still ran out of Qingfeng Medical Center.

"Don't talk too much, so as not to delay His Highness's business." Yang Shuyue said, "If Your Highness is ready, open the box."

Zhao Fengci hummed, and gently leaned his finger against the small hole, and the blood flowed into the wooden box along the small hole.There was a twisting sound of the mechanism inside the box, and only a "squeak" was heard, and the wooden box was slowly opened from both sides.

Zhao Fengci looked intently at the things in the box.

The tiger talisman has been split into two halves since ancient times, one half was handed over to the general, and the other half was kept by the emperor.General Jingyang held the right tiger talisman to lead the Zhenbei army, and the left tiger talisman was always in the hands of Emperor Jingyang.Now, this Left Tiger Talisman is lying quietly in the box, its surface made of jade is crystal clear.

The tiger charms are merged, and the world is unified.
