Outside the Ganqing Palace, Li Dongyang said to Yan Chengjin: "Go in later, I know what to say, right?"

Yan Chengjin was at a loss: "I don't know."

"Stop pretending to be garlic for me!" Li Dongyang jumped in anger.

Just now, Li Dongyang followed him and accidentally made the marriage happen. Yan Chengjin became his son-in-law.

At the beginning, he didn't like Yan Chengjin very much. This guy was timid and afraid of things. He liked to shirk responsibility in everything, and was so cautious that he was beyond ordinary people.

But later I found out that this guy was pretty straightforward, so I changed my opinion a little.

Yan Chengjin thought for a while and said to Li Dongyang: "It is not wrong to be cautious when being an official in the court. Did the lord ask for retirement because of his subordinates?"

He and Li Dongyang never called him teachers and students. He was heard of in the palace and were suspected of forming cliques.

Yesterday, Empress Zhang invited him to Kunning Palace to be a matchmaker, and Li Dongyang was about to retire and came to Kunning Palace with him. It was not a coincidence.

Li Dongyang was a righteous man, and it was common for him to ask for retirement due to illness, so he said that he had retired due to illness.

"no……"

Li Dongyang hesitated for a moment, sighed in embarrassment, obviously saying that he was panicked.

"Sir, please invite me."

Yan Chengjin and Li Dongyang walked into the hall, and Li Qing'e stood beside her father.

Queen Zhang smiled when she saw them and said, "I am bored in the palace. Your Majesty accidentally mentioned the marriage of Yan Qing's family. If it can lead to a marriage, it will be a merit. It would be great to see Yan Qing's family and Qing'e."

Li Qing'e's face showed a peach-colored pink color, and she was so embarrassed that she couldn't raise her head.

"Qing'e, what do you think?" Li Dongyang looked at his daughter. If he had not expressed his feelings to the empress, there was still room for recovery.

A woman who is not married will rush to marry a man if she is put on the shelves. If it is reported, it will lose face of the family and look down upon it.

Li Qing'e said: "By your father, make the decision."

Li Dongyang was very calm and said, "Qing'e was born from a minor background, and was born to a poor woman. Yan Chengjin was the top scholar. Why not choose a good man again?"

The rejection was obvious, and Queen Zhang heard it: "Don't the Li Qing family want to betroth Qing'e to Yan Qing's family?"

Li Dongyang nodded and praised: "Yes."

this……

The atmosphere was in awkwardness.

Queen Zhang looked at Yan Chengjin and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Yan Chengjin carefully pondered it, from Li Dongyang's tone to expression, he analyzed that Li Dongyang made such a decision, and he felt no guilt in his heart...

"Since that's the case, I won't make things difficult for Li Qing's family." Li Dongyang is the second assistant to the cabinet, but his status in the court is no different from that of Liu Jian. Even if Empress Zhang is the queen of the mother, she cannot force her.

Come out of the palace,

At the dismounting monument in front of the Meridian Gate, Li Dongyang sent someone back to the house to invite the sedan chair. While waiting for the sedan chair, Li Qing'e grabbed the corner of her clothes and felt a little emotional: "Dad clearly knows..."

Li Dongyang said to his daughter ashamedly: "Qing'e, you know very little about this. Dad always feels that he doesn't believe anyone. If you marry him, you will suffer. Dad find you a good family."

Li Qing'e was reluctant in her heart.

When I returned to the mansion, I saw that the servants in the mansion carried water basins and ran to the study room, crying.

"What happened?"

"Master, you come back, the eldest master fainted just now." said the housekeeper.

Li Dongyang was shocked. His eldest son Li Zhaoxian has been weak since childhood and is often nicknamed "white-faced scholar".

Because he was so pale.

Although he is a student of the Imperial College, Li Dongyang often asked him to study at home to avoid reducing interference.

"Doctor, how about my son?"

"The student just took his pulse, but he fainted only after he had blood deficiency. He must have been too tired." The old doctor took out a pen and paper from the medicine box: "The student prescribes a pair of medicine and it will be fine after taking it."

After prescribing the prescription, the housekeeper took the old doctor to the warehouse to make money.

Li Qing'e felt a little distressed and called out softly: "Brother?"

The scholar on the bed had a pale face, his lips were not very bloody, and he looked weak and tired.

Li Dongyang sat beside the bed and sighed: "Have you stayed up late again?"

"The autumn exam is coming soon, how can I be lazy... but I don't have the strength to do anything." Li Zhaoxian was both ashamed and complained.

I knew in my heart that he was able to enter the Imperial College because of his father's kindness, and that his knowledge was not as good as that of his younger sister.

Liu wiped his tears: "Master, Zhaoxian's body is getting weaker and weaker. Tell him not to take the imperial examination. It takes three days for a provincial examination. How can Zhaoxian survive?"

Li Dongyang has many conveniences for traveling, such as ordering the examiner to arrange a better number room.

But he can't replace his son's imperial examination.

Before the imperial examination was officially started, scholars had to go to the tribute school first. After three days, many people died after the imperial examination.

Li Dongyang sighed in shame and did not give his son a good body.

"Stop taking the exam, take care of your illness at home."

Li Zhaoxian's eyes were crystal clear. When scholars heard the truth in the morning, they could die in the evening. What's the use of living like this?

...

Kunning Palace,

Yan Chengjin had just come out of Kunning Palace and met Emperor Hongzhi, and was called back to Kunning Palace.

Emperor Hongzhi sat on the imperial throne, took a sip of ginseng tea to moisten his throat, and then asked, "What about the daughter of Li Qing's family?"

Empress Zhang handed Emperor Hongzhi a meaningful look. Emperor Hongzhi's face froze. After understanding, he looked at Yan Chengjin and became a little sympathetic.

"The Li Qing family disagrees?"

Yan Chengjin bowed: "I am ashamed."

Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "If you have any intention, I can talk to Li Qing's family."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, my in-laws are family affairs, and I dare not bother Your Majesty." Yan Chengjin was a little moved.

His Majesty is still generous and kind in the court affairs day and night. For his sake, it is very much like the care of elders for their younger generations, commonly known as urging marriage.

The next day,

Before the court discussion began, Emperor Hongzhi did not see Li Dongyang and asked, "Where is the Li Qing family, why didn't he see him today? Is he in good health?"

Xiao Jing hurriedly said, "Your Majesty asked him to rest for a few days, but Lord Li didn't go to court. He was in good health. However, Lord Li's son... seemed to be very ill."

The factory guards knew the capital's movements very well.

Especially ministers like Liu Jian and Li Dongyang.

When Li Zhaoxian was studying in the Imperial College, he was often ridiculed and had an old habit.

Emperor Hongzhi sighed, Li Qing's family was in poor health, and now even his son is sick, he must be heartbroken.

"Sorry Doctor Liu to take a look."

Yan Chengjin thought about it differently, Li Dongyang's eldest son Li Zhaoxian has about half a year left.

Let Dr. Liu go.

I'm afraid my life span will be halfway.

"There is still half a year left, and there may not be no chance. Should I go and have a look?" Yan Chengjin hesitated.

It is naturally not possible to find Doctor Liu.

At this time, the most powerful doctor in the Ming Dynasty was Wang Ji.

It’s just that the imperial doctor is under the title of royal family. His Majesty and the people in the market always think that the imperial doctor is the most powerful doctor in the world, but it is not the case.

Not finding the right doctor is like extinguishing a fire without using a fire extinguisher.

After finding the right doctor, Li Zhao thought that there might be some help.

It was just at this time that the information was closed, but the dignitaries in the capital had never heard of Wang Ji's name.

Not to mention the palace.
