Chapter Fifty-eight Riding the Horse into the Imperial City
"Guan Ye, the old man just fell down and fainted. If the owner of this village has the ability to come back to life, he still needs to lead this group of women to hunt in the mountains. If he just steals a few lives from the Lord of Hell and comes back, won't he be able to spend all the money he earns?
It’s not over yet.” Yu Qing said calmly as he looked at several court soldiers.
"Master, I taught this skill to my apprentice. I wonder why the master found him on the back mountain?" the old doctor said, and the boss felt a sudden change. This old doctor still loves to show off.
"Old imperial doctor, I know that this mountain is privately owned by your villa. I am here this time to ask the old imperial doctor to come out and bring Master Ye Xiaozhu with him."
"My lord, I was kicked out of the palace because of my fault back then. Now I am a doctor in the villa. I am afraid that my old bones cannot bear the love of the court."
"Old doctor, don't be ignorant of praise, and don't pretend to be confused while pretending to understand. Someone has been replaced on the throne, and whatever mistakes you have made have been exposed. It is your good fortune that the new emperor can think of you. Master Ye Xiaozhuang,
Your villa was the first to discover the plague, and you cooked a few large pots of medicinal soup to contain the spread. Yuanwai villa was also cured by your master and apprentice, and even the doctor in Yanwai Castle used your medicine.
Fang Zi, Mr. Ye Xiaozhu, you deny even these, you are as stubborn as your master and refuse to enter the palace." The leader's face became even more gloomy as he spoke.
"Guan Ye, even though the daughter-in-law didn't learn much from my master, she can still be regarded as a young doctor. The doctor's duty is to treat illnesses and save lives. The daughter-in-law and my master didn't want to hide it. It's just our villa.
Those who fell ill initially suffered from ordinary fever and discomfort. My master and I also prepared medicinal decoctions for headaches and brain fever. When we arrived at Yuanwai Villa, we also suspected that it was not a good illness. But the prescriptions were all the same.
, Including Yanwai Ancient Castle, the recipe taken away by the master of Yanxiao Castle is the same." Yu Qing said frankly.
"What's up with the pills?"
"Master, you know this. A doctor has to keep some hands even for his own disciples, not to mention when a large number of people fall ill with the same disease at the same time."
"Master, the women want to expose them. Two days ago, their master and apprentice were rubbing a lot of pills in the small medicine shop in the villa." Qi Auntie said there again in a matter-of-fact manner, which immediately caused the women to roll their eyes.
looked at her.
"Qi Auntie, I need you to report this matter. My master and I just heard that there was a plague in the imperial city, so we took some pills and took them out. We didn't hide this from anyone."
"Get out of here, how can you interrupt what I'm talking about here? I heard that you just pushed the old lady to death just to grab her chicken. If this happened in the imperial city, I would chop off your head.
, What an ignorant and unfaithful person." Neither Lao Langzhong nor Yu Qing agreed to go to the palace, and the boss directly vented his anger on Qi Bo Niang. The emperor was so anxious about this matter that several empresses in the harem did not dare to go there.
Went. He just accepted this errand and wanted to make a contribution in front of the emperor.
"My lord, the common people will bring you the prescription back to the palace, as well as more than 100 pills that have been made." The old doctor looked at Yuqing and said, and Yuqing took the master's words and continued.
"When the patient was first discovered in the villa, my master and I treated it as a normal fever. Although the people at Yuanwai Villa were more serious, the medicinal soup cooked in our villa was the same. It wasn't until Yanwai Castle came to ask for help that
I knew it was not an ordinary fever. I cherished my life with my master, so I sold the prescription to them. It’s not that we have anything special about Yuanwai Villa, it’s just that they have the same doctor who can treat doctors as we do here. The official gave the prescription and
Take the pills back, and the imperial doctors in the palace can use them as a reference." After Yu Qing finished speaking, the official who arrived thought hesitantly. At this time, a follower whispered a few words in his ear.
"Your master is cunning and cunning, and you are also eccentric. Who knows whether your prescriptions and pills can be effective? If not, I will ask the subordinate to take the blame for you." After hearing the words of the entourage, the official's attitude became tougher and said.
"Master, you are overthinking. My master and I did not hide or exaggerate what happened. We also said the same to Yanwai Castle. Our prescriptions and pills are all for their reference. As for
How effective is it? How long does it take for people who drink the medicine to recover? We don't care. There are many talented people in the imperial city and there are many imperial doctors. My master is old and a commoner girl is also a fledgling. Life is not easy. You are afraid of taking the blame. We are afraid of the effect of the medicine.
It's not good to be punished. To say it disrespectfully, the daughter of the people is still worried that you are pretending to convey the emperor's will to take credit for yourself."
"Bold! Are you willing to enter the palace only after seeing the imperial edict? Ye Yuqing, the former royal medical doctor, listens to the edict." The subordinate who had been so eloquent just now started to speak in an official tone.
Everyone who cheered knelt down. The imperial official read out the imperial edict. The content of the imperial edict was very simple, which was to ask the former imperial doctor to bring his disciples into the palace to cure the plague. Those who were cured would be rewarded. If there was no curative effect, there would be no further investigation.
After listening to a few words of the imperial edict, the old doctor stood up tremblingly and took over the imperial edict and said: "The common people and disciples thank the emperor for his grace and will do their best to share the emperor's worries."
"That's right. Being summoned to the palace by the emperor's decree is a great honor for your entire villa. Old imperial doctor Ye Xiaozhu, please follow me into the palace now."
"My lord, the village girl has to return the collected herbs to the villa. The most important thing is to go back and get the pills made by my master. There are also these women who came from hunting. The owner of the village has to take them back.
"
"There are so many things to do. Please take your master and leave first. We will meet on the official road." The court official said helplessly, but in his heart he was thinking that if you dare to run away, your master will die in the palace.
"My lord, the horses of the grassroots must be fast enough to make sure the time is right. Aunts and aunts, there are a few villagers who will protect you and go back to the villa as soon as possible." After Yuqing said that, the big red horse started running, and the old doctor over there also
I got on the carriage sent by the court and went down the mountain from the other side.
Yuqing rode the big red horse back to the Sixth Courtyard first, put down the little wolf cub, told the nanny and Ye Jing how to feed it, and also told the nanny about entering the palace.
"Miss, it's not easy to get in or out of the palace, so be careful." The nanny gave her instructions in a hurry.
Yuqing went to the small medicine shop again, closed the door, took out some of the pills in the space and put some of them into the pocket on the horse. Passing by the villa's meeting hall, Xuan Ye and Zhen'er were already waiting outside.
"Master Yuqing Villa, you are really lucky. Maybe you can meet the emperor. Don't worry about things in the villa." Ye Xuan said with some envy. At this time, she may have forgotten that her father and brother are both in the palace.
It dies when it changes.
"Yuqing, change your stubborn temper and we'll wait for you to come back." Zhen'er said with concern.
"Don't worry, you two. I'm saving my life." Yuqing didn't have any more words to say and ran out of the villa on horseback.
There was no passerby on the official road. Yuqing gave the order to the big red horse to run at full speed. One man and one horse were almost flying. After passing the villa, he saw the court's carriage turning from the foot of the mountain.
There was deathly silence in the Imperial City, all the shops were closed, and no one could be seen on the streets except the patrolling officers. There was thick black smoke floating high in the sky in the direction of the mass graves. Don't think about the burning of dead bodies there. The Imperial City
The plague here is more serious than Yuqing imagined.
The carriage was driven directly into the palace, and Yuqing followed the carriage on horseback. Although the palace was magnificent, it was deathly silent. Occasionally, he passed by eunuchs and maids in a hurry, and his face almost covered his eyes. In the palace
In an open space, there is a row of large pots. There is also dark medicinal soup in the pot. It is obvious that the ceasefire has not been long, and the medicinal soup has not frozen yet. A group of imperial doctors who were boiling medicine just now are now trembling with fear.
Kneel down in the hall.
"What's the use of the imperial court raising trash like you? You are all idiots. The prescription has been given to you. Why is it that the medicine you brewed has no effect? Are you not as good as those doctors outside who have never seen the world?" Long.
There is a person sitting on the chair, wearing a double-layered scarf, and incense is burning on the dragon table. It is the newly enthroned emperor this time - Yan Rutian.
"Your Majesty, the doctors outside are the most cunning. They gave me the prescription. I heard that the pills also have a blessing effect. But apart from the ingredients they analyzed, we have not seen any ready-made medicine. And each doctor has his own opinion, too.
Even the doctors at the hospital don’t know who is right.”
"Why don't you say you are all stupid? The medicinal materials in the palace are open for you to use. Pot after pot of medicinal soup has been boiled. People who drank the medicinal soup deserved the same death, and no one was cured.
If another person dies in the palace, no matter what his identity is, I will kill one of you to pay for my life."
"Your Majesty, please spare my life." There was a cry in the hall.
Yuqing, who was riding on the big red horse, received the live broadcast of the soul pen, as if he was actually there. As he got closer to the main hall, Yuqing could more or less sense the situation in the main hall. He even smelled the incense on the dragon table.
, the herbs in it all have a preventive and sterilizing effect. But the spices are mixed and have no effect. I already have the rules in my heart, but I can't communicate with the master. I can only adapt to the situation.
The eunuch guarding the gate had already gone inside to report that Yuqing's carriage was quickly stopped by the eunuch. Yuqing and the old man also followed the eunuch into the main hall.
"Long live my emperor." Yuqing imitated what he had seen in movies and TV series in his previous life, but unexpectedly he actually kept up with the rhythm of the doctor. The emperor on the dragon throne obviously liked this trick very much.
You can't see the expression behind the mask. His tone is obviously very cheerful.
"Master Doctor Ye Xiaozhu stood up and answered."
"My dear, the rhythm is wrong. Shouldn't the emperor say that he is flat next?" Yuqing's consciousness slipped.
"Master, just understand the spirit." Yuyu was very worried for her master.
"Don't be afraid, Mr. Ye, Xiaozhu. The old imperial doctor is still as charming as ever." The emperor, who was in a high position, thought that the Xiaozhu below was scared. Hearing this, Yuqing felt a chill.
"What's that look? This princess looks so relaxed and at ease." Yuqing rolled her eyes in her consciousness.
"Master, he can't see your contemptuous expression. Can you be more serious?"
"Master of Royal Physician, Lord Ye Xiaozhuang, I heard that the plague that occurred in your villa, Yuanwai Villa, and Yanwai Castle was cured by your master and disciple. I am thirsty for wealth, for the sake of the country of Yan.
Then we summoned the imperial doctor and Lord Ye Xiaozhuang into the palace, and together with the imperial doctors in the palace, we put an end to the plague."
"Your Majesty, it is the honor of the people to relieve the emperor's worries. The people who first cured those who fell ill in Zhuangzi used ordinary antipyretic and detoxifying prescriptions. Later, when they came to Yuanwai Villa, the sick people became more serious, and the prescriptions were used
There was not much change in the recipe. Only the dosage of the medicinal herbs and the order in which they were boiled and put in were changed. When they arrived at the Yanwai Castle, neither Cao Min nor the apprentice went there. They just sold them the prescription and the pills made by Cao Min. As for the
The common people and apprentices don't know the efficacy of this." The old doctor lowered his head and said matter-of-factly.
"Old imperial doctor, what you said is somewhat untrue. According to the information I got, these times are all due to your apprentice who is better than his master. I didn't expect that after being kicked out of the palace for more than 10 years, you still have this problem.
It hasn’t been changed.”
"You know nothing about virtue. You have spies everywhere. This shows how little you have confidence in yourself."
"Master, calm down."
"Yes, Your Majesty, the common people are terrified." There was fear in the old man's voice.
"Your Majesty, can you allow the daughter of the people to say a few words?" Seeing that the doctor's master was a little confused, Yuqing hurriedly stopped the topic.
"Master Ye Xiaozhu, just say whatever you have to say. As long as it's about this plague, whether you say it right or wrong, I won't blame you." The emperor pretended to be magnanimous and said.
"It's so hypocritical." Yuyu complained in her consciousness.
"Quiet." Yuqing also said to Yuyu in his consciousness. In the eyes of the emperor, Master Ye Xiaozhuang was brewing emotions. He couldn't help but feel his vanity satisfied, and looked at Yuqing without urging. He just had his face covered.
Wearing a face scarf, we only see a pair of clear eyes, but we don’t know what kind of appearance is underneath the face scarf.
"Your Majesty, Minnu has learned medical skills from the doctor's master for several years. Minnu just dared to think and do, and her confidence came from the superb medical skills of the doctor. Master Aicai gave all the credit to Minnu. The doctor is a talented person.
Only those who take responsibility and women of the people dare to put their wild ideas into practice."
"Oh! I still don't understand correctly, old doctor, you are not afraid that your apprentice will smash the master's sign and lose your job." The emperor said again, pretending to be funny. "
"If I go back to the emperor, it's not that I'm not afraid, it's that the common people agree with the ideas but don't have the courage. Young people are brave enough to innovate and have new attempts based on the older generation. This is something worth encouraging. The common people are not responsible masters.
, I want to live a good life." This sentence the old doctor said came from the bottom of his heart, and the doctors who were still kneeling on the ground all agreed. They didn't think that what the old doctor did was wrong, and the apprentice's contribution should be the credit.
It belongs to the master. Without the teaching of the master, there would be no innovation of the apprentice.
"Well, if you want to live a good life, you should study the prescriptions and make the medicinal soup with all your heart. If the plague in the imperial city is cured, I will reward you. Old imperial doctor Ye Xiaozhuang, do you want to go and see those sick people in person?
"
"If you go back to the emperor, you must see this. Please also ask the imperial doctor in the palace to guide the common people." As soon as the old man's voice finished, he immediately drew a roll of eyes, and the little good impression he had towards the old man was gone.
.I really don’t know how to live or die, but I still dare to go to the sick people.
"You are really ignorant. My master is here to save you."
"Master, calm down."
The sick people in the palace are now gathered in the cold palace, with guards on one side and women on the other. The royal doctor in the palace is far away and refuses to leave anymore.
