Li Zhi, don't be a coward

The people in Datang are simple and kind-hearted.

If you can cure a disease, you can help me cure it well. If you are cured, you will be treated well. Those who have money will pay, and those who have no money will be given souvenirs. Tian Qi.

The common people gathered around the post gate, they were calm and quiet.

The composition of the crowd is very mixed, there are traffickers, merchants and farmers, disabled government soldiers, and crying babies.

They are either patients or relatives of patients. Their illnesses are troublesome and intractable diseases that cannot be cured by ordinary doctors. For them, Lu Jiayi is mostly a glimmer of hope.

Foreign monks can recite scriptures. It is said that Lu Jiayi is mostly from Tianzhu, the birthplace of Buddhism, and he must be able to recite scriptures.

So the gate of the posthouse was surrounded with water, and they were all quietly waiting for Lu Jiayi to come out to meet them and treat their ailments.

Lu Jiayi was caught off guard, and was at a loss when the people blocked the door.

He only wanted to gain the trust of the emperor, but the factors of the common people were never in his consideration.

He had just been appointed an official by the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but for some reason the news spread so quickly, the door was blocked by the common people the next day.

He came to Datang from Wutu country all the way. He didn't come to be a doctor. He has great ambitions.

The gate of the post was closed, and the officials of Honglu Temple were a little panicked. One of the directors hurried into the post to ask to see Lu Jiayiduo, carefully probing whether he wanted to treat a few patients.

Send away the people outside first, otherwise the crowd will gather, and they will all be desperately ill people, fearing that troubles will arise.

Lu Jiayiduo categorically rejected the request of the officials of Honglu Temple.

Just kidding, he can be a demagogic liar, a brahmin who plays tricks, or even a traitor who disrupts the government, but he can't be a doctor who saves lives and heals the wounded.

Because he doesn't know medical skills at all, he claims to be able to cure all diseases, but it's just some quack tricks.

For example, in the so-called panacea, add some datura that can paralyze the nerves for a long time, or a little bit of a mildly hallucinogenic drug, etc.

After taking the medicine, the patient loses his sense of pain and has hallucinations. He feels that his illness seems to be cured, but in fact it is only temporary, and he needs to spend money to take his medicine for a long time.

After a long time, when it was time to reveal his secrets, he should run away and continue to cheat in another place.

He came all the way from Wutu country to Tang Chang'an, probably found that there were already people in Wutu country who suspected him, and he was almost unable to get along, so he got the title of envoy and ran away in a hurry.

Lu Jiayi brought a lot of those deceptive medicinal materials, but the people outside the door are obviously not the target of his service, he is following the high-end boutique route, and the emperor of the Tang Dynasty or high-ranking courtiers are his targets. After all, there is a lot of money and people are stupid.

After being flatly rejected by Lu Jiayi, the officials of Honglu Temple left awkwardly, and then reported the matter to the Ministry of Rites.

More and more people gathered outside the post, some of them came to see the doctor, and some were just watching the fun.

Li Qinzai and Song Sen were wearing casual clothes and standing far away in the crowd. They squinted their eyes and looked at the crowds of people in front of the gate of the posthouse, with small smiles on their lips.

It's really lively, but it's a pity that there is a little less atmosphere. There should be gongs, drums and firecrackers here.

A swindler from Utu Kingdom may have sufficient experience in the world, but he does not necessarily have official experience, especially the official experience that Huaxia has honed over thousands of years.

If he really had this kind of experience, he would know that there are no taboos if he doesn't hug the emperor's thigh tightly. Li Qinzai has nine ways to reveal his true form and ruin his reputation, nine ways!

"Mr. Li, the people blocked the door to ask him to see a doctor. This Lu Jiayi seems to be unwilling to deal with the people." Song Sen was still a little worried.

This time, spreading the news and encouraging the people to block the door was all done by him and Baiqisi's confidantes. For the first time in his life, he did something against the will of the emperor. Now he is a little uneasy. It's not bullying.

No matter how you look at it, I feel that the things Li Jungong and he did behind the scenes are very similar to the tricks of treacherous officials. Could it be that he was led astray by Li Jungong?
Li Qinzai's expression was nonchalant, Li Zhi had already been assumed to be a foolish ruler, and of course he had to do some shameful things to work under the foolish ruler.

It is not a good thing for a person to be too upright. As the saying goes, "If you are too straight, you will be crooked", which means that if a person is too upright, he will become crooked, and he will only like boys in the future.

"Of course he can't talk to these people, because this guy doesn't know medical skills at all. Isn't he revealing his secrets when he comes out to see a doctor?" Li Qinzai stared at the gate of the posthouse and said calmly.

Song Sen said again: "Then what shall we do next?"

Li Qinzai leaned close to his ear and asked in a low voice: "Apart from the common people, there are also courtiers in the crowd, right? Those officials who have heard rumors about things will not miss this excitement, right?"

Song Sen smiled and said: "In the crowd at this moment, apart from a dozen supervisors, even Liu Rengui, the servant of the palace, has come. Please look to the southeast, more than ten feet away, Junjun Li. Do you see that? That one is wearing a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat, pretending to be a farmer. My guy is Liu Rengui."

Li Qinzai stared intently, seeing Liu Rengui's attire from afar, he couldn't help but chuckle.

"This old man, pretending to be real, looks like the kind of old widower who gives away a white-haired man to a black-haired man, who is lonely and seriously ill in old age, and has to come to the house to seek medical treatment in order to survive..."

Song Sen glanced at Li Qinzai in surprise, and said in a low voice, "Mr. Li, isn't your statement too...cough, I am very curious, how do you talk about this official behind your back?"

Li Qinzai glanced at him quickly, his lips tightened suddenly, and he stared straight ahead expressionlessly.

Song Sen showed a hurt expression: "When you... talk about being dismissed from office, I'm afraid you don't have anything good to say?"

Li Qinzai stretched out his hands and straightened his head: "Look ahead, don't talk about irrelevant nonsense."

"If there is no accident, today's memorial to the impeachment of Lu Jiayi will fly into Shangshu Province like snowflakes, and Xu Jingzong will have a headache, ha ha." Li Qinzai squinted his eyes and smiled sinisterly.

"What shall we do next?" Song Sen asked.

Li Qinzai said slowly: "Although the scene in front of me is lively, it's not lively enough...Old Song, since the matter has been done, it might as well make it bigger."

"You tell your subordinates to stir up in front of the gate of the post, and let the common people who seek medical treatment rush into the post. We have to educate that exotic hozen. It is not so easy to be an official in the Tang Dynasty."

Song Sen hesitated and said: "After the common people rushed in, what if they hurt Lu Jiayiduo? It is a serious crime for the people to hurt an official, and the court will be turned upside down."

"No, you don't understand the mood of people who seek medical treatment. Lu Jiayi is mostly their hope for healing. The common people can make noise, but they will never hurt him."

Song Sen is like a toddler who has just started, and he has a lot of problems today.

"What if Lu Jiayi really took action to treat them?"

Li Qinzai glanced at him again, and said, "Then I'll offend you..."

Song Sen was stunned: "Who offended?"

"To offend you... I'll stab you in the stomach. You go to Lu Jiayido for help. If he can cure you, he has the ability. If he can't cure you, he will..." Li Qinzai laughed strangely.

Song Sen's scalp was numb: "Don't be jerky, Mr. Li, if it can't be cured, I will be an official..."

"I'll make a big deal for you, and it will definitely make you smile."

"I won't do it!" Song Sen suddenly grew rebellious.
