Han Shimou

From the city of Luoyang to the current emperor Xiandi of the Han Dynasty, down to the common people of the Li people, after hearing this, everyone was horrified and unbelievable.It can be seen that Cao Cao is called a peerless hero by the people of the world, and has always been ruthless and ruthless. Even Cao Cao once said: I would rather teach me to bear the people of the world than let the people of the world bear me!

After that, there were many different rumors about this matter.Some people say that the reason why Cao Cao is like this is because of Guo Jian's talent and to win over his heart.Some people also said that Cao Cao used this incident to stabilize his subordinates, especially those old officials of the Yuan family who had served the Yuan family for a long time. It is to prove that he is a corporal who is courteous and reassuring.Rumors like this emerged endlessly, but none of them said that Cao Cao did it sincerely.

Half a month later, Zhang Ji rushed from Wancheng to Luoyang.Zhang Ji, courtesy name Zhongjing, was born in Nieyang, Nanyang County.Zhang Ji was well-versed and interested in medicine since he was a child. When he was young, he admired Qin Yueren, a famous doctor in the Warring States Period, for his medical skills in observing and observing diseases. medicine.Later, he worshiped "Zhang Bozu", a famous doctor in the same county, as his teacher, and later his medical skills improved beyond what his teacher taught him.

Zhang Ji was supported by the people because of his medical ethics, and was once promoted as Xiaolian. Later, he became the prefect of Changsha.In the following year, the world was in great chaos, and the flames of war spread all over the world, causing countless deaths and injuries among the people all over the world.At that time, the Jingzhou epidemic was prevalent again, and the people and villagers suffered heavy casualties.Not only are there a huge number of patients, but it is also difficult to treat, and no one in a hundred can recover.In less than ten years, two-thirds of the more than 200 members of Zhang Ji's family died due to the plague.

Zhang Ji has the common people in his heart, seeing the people in the county suffering from the epidemic, if there is heartbreaking pain, the treatment of the epidemic has become the driving force for Zhang Ji on the road of medical skills.

Zhang Ji saw the decline of the Han Dynasty, and the princes from all over the world attacked each other in order to seize power, and no one cared that the people were suffering from the epidemic.Zhang Ji had repeatedly begged the imperial court for medicines for the people, and hoped that the imperial court would send troops to help him deal with the epidemic together.At that time, the people in power were Li Cui and Guo Si, who held Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty hostage in Chang'an.These two are selfish and greedy, how can they care about the life and death of the people, and they repeatedly rejected Zhang Ji's request.

Zhang Ji was disheartened, so he resigned his official position and specialized in medicine, determined to subdue the plague.He diligently sought ancient teachings, learned widely from all sources, inherited the medical achievements of his predecessors, and even visited all parts of the world intensively, collecting folk methods of curing diseases and organizing them into a book. At this time, Zhang Ji's achievements in the field of treating typhoid epidemic diseases are unprecedented. No one came after.

Zhang Ji rushed to Luoyang. Cao Cao heard the report from the soldiers and went to the city to meet him in person.At this time Zhang Ji was just a commoner, while Cao Cao was the most powerful minister in the world today, Zhang Ji couldn't help being somewhat surprised to see Cao Cao greet him personally.After Cao Cao and Zhang Ji talked about the ceremony, they immediately mentioned Guo Jia's condition.

"If Mr. Zhang can cure Zhenhou, he will have great kindness to Cao. At that time, as long as Cao is within his power, no matter what the request is, Cao will definitely respond!"

Cao Cao bowed his hands and bowed to Zhang Ji. Zhang Ji was flattered and hurried back to bow.

"I'm just a commoner, how dare I receive such a big gift from the prime minister. What's more, it is the bounden duty of a doctor to cure the disease and save people. And Xun Gong has explained the benefits and disadvantages to this in a letter earlier. Zhenhou's life is related to the world. If you can save Zhenhou , the prime minister will be able to calm down the world as soon as possible, and save the people of the world from the flames of war. This is actually, whoever saves one person, saves tens of thousands of people. You must do everything you can!"

"Mr. Zhang is righteous. If this is the case, please leave quickly."

Cao Cao waved his hand and led Zhang Ji to go up to the side carriage.Shaoqing, the carriage is moving like lightning, and it is flying straight to Zhenhou's Mansion.An hour later, after Zhang Ji finished his diagnosis and treatment for Guo Jia, his brows were deeply furrowed, his face was solemn, and he stood aside, without speaking for a long time.Cao Cao was anxious and waited for a long time. When Cao Cao faced Yuan Shao's army of nearly 40, he was still able to calm down and face it calmly.But for some reason, as long as Guo Jia's survival was at stake, Cao Cao had difficulty controlling his emotions. Perhaps in Cao Cao's mind, Guo Jia was not just a counselor, that simple.

Another half stick of incense passed by, and Cao Cao was about to open his mouth to ask.Zhang Ji kept his mouth tightly shut, and finally spoke at this time.

"The cold poison in Zhenhou's body has penetrated deep into the bone marrow. If the medicine is used, I am afraid that it will not be eradicated in time, and the cold poison will spread to his internal organs. Even if the gods come down to earth, it will be difficult to cure Zhenhou's disease."

Cao cao stared violently, staggered a few steps, and screamed.

"Could it be that even Mr. Zhang can't rule and be filial!?"

Zhang Ji saw that Cao Cao's mind seemed to have suffered a great blow, so he hurriedly said again.

"Prime Minister, there is no need to panic. Although Zhenhou's disease is stubborn and evil, there is a method to cure it, but if this method is used, one person needs to cooperate. Otherwise, it will be difficult to achieve."

When Cao Cao heard this, he burst into joy, grabbed Zhang Ji's hand, and asked anxiously.

"Whoever Mr. Zhang wants, Cao will send someone to hire him immediately!"

Zhang Ji's face was serious, and he was a bit embarrassed to answer.

"If this person is Prime Minister Cao, it is rare to invite him."

"Hahaha!!! Mr. Zhang's words are wrong. Mr. Cao is powerful in the world. No one in the world is afraid of him, and no one wants to be protected by Mr. Cao. Let me ask you this, what kind of person is it? , you just tell me!"

Cao Cao laughed angrily, Zhang Ji pondered for a while, and said slowly.

"This person is Hua Tuo, Hua Yuanhua, who stripped his body and scraped poison for the three champion Hou brothers in the Luoyang prison in the past!"

"It's this person!?"

Cao Cao was startled suddenly, his fine eyes narrowed into a slit.At this time, Hua Tuo became an official under Wen Han's command. Regardless of Hua Tuo's medical ethics, let's first look at the relationship between Cao Cao and Wen Han.At this time, although the two of them appeared calm and peaceful on the surface, they lived in peace.But both Cao Cao and Wen Han regard each other as the biggest opponent on the road to world hegemony.

And the 'Ghost Talent' Guo Jia is the most important advisor under Cao Cao's command.To Cao Cao, Guo Jia was like the arms of a man, the claws of a tiger, the hooves of a horse, and the wings of an eagle.If Guo Jia was really critically ill, Wen Han would only regret it at most, but it would be more of celebration and less of a serious worry.

Based on this calculation, the possibility that Wen Han would respond to Nuo Cao Cao's request and send Hua Tuo to rescue Guo Jia is definitely very small.

Cao Cao took a deep breath, pondered for a while, and suddenly asked Zhang Ji.

"It must be this person?"

Zhang Ji nodded solemnly and said.

"That's right. The cold poison of Marquis Zhen has penetrated deep into the bone marrow and must be eliminated as soon as possible. The only person in the world who has this medical skill is Hua Yuanhua. For the disease of Marquis Zhen, it is necessary to use the method of stripping the body and scraping the poison. First remove the cold poison of the bone marrow, and then I will Treating with medicine, both of them can be done together. Moreover, the cold poison in Zhenhou's body is constantly approaching from the bone marrow to the internal organs of his body. I can delay it with medicine first, but it can last for two months at most. If it is two months After that, Hua Yuanhua has not yet come. I am afraid that Zhenhou will, "

"I already understand. Mr. Zhang must be exhausted after traveling so far. Mr. Zhang left a prescription and ordered his servants to cook the medicine. I have already asked people to arrange a clean house for Mr. Zhang in the city. Mr. Zhang can rest there. yes."

Cao Cao's face was silent, Zhang Ji left the prescription according to Cao Cao's arrangement, and after giving orders, he left Zhenhou Mansion with a group of soldiers.

The next day, Cao Cao hurriedly gathered under his command to discuss this matter.

"Marquis Zhen is at stake, and there is not much time at the moment. Why don't the prime minister ask the current sage to draw up an edict ordering Nahua Yuanhua to come to Luoyang. The emperor's order cannot be disobeyed, how can Hua Yuanhua dare to resist the decree!?"

Zhang Ja stood up and cupped his hands, first admonishing him.However, Cheng Yu, who was seated opposite him, shook his head and retorted quickly.

"The Han Dynasty is lonely, and everyone in the world thinks that the country is in the hands of the prime minister. Using the emperor's order will only scare the snake, and make Wen Bufan suspicious, thinking that the prime minister or the prime minister has an important minister who is critically ill. In this way, Wen Bufan How could he easily let Hua Yuanhua come to Beijing?"

"Oh! It's easy. As long as the prime minister gives three thousand tiger and leopard cavalry, I will immediately lead my troops to the east of the river and take that Hua Yuan into the prime minister's captivity!"

Dian Wei stood up suddenly, slapped his chest, and screamed without fear.Cao Cao frowned and scolded angrily on the spot.

"The bravery of a man! Wen Bufan's fierce generals are like a cloud, I'm afraid you will be captured by his fierce generals hand in hand just after entering the Hedong realm!"

Dian Wei was slapped in the face by Cao Cao, and only then did he remember Wen Han's brave generals, especially Guan Yu and Zhao Yun, whose martial arts did not detract from him in the slightest.Dian Wei also knew that he was too arrogant just now, but he still grimaced and sat back on the table indignantly.

"My lord, it is the best policy to insist on right and wrong. It seems that we need to promise his interests before we can accomplish anything."

Xun Yu suddenly opened his mouth and said, Xun Yu's words were in line with Cao Cao's intentions, Cao Cao nodded slightly and agreed.

"What Wen Ruo said is reasonable. I don't know how I can benefit. Wen Bufan is now an official to the general of the hussars. If he goes up to reward him, he will be crowned king. This is absolutely impossible."

"Prime Minister, since Wen Bufan first came to Liangzhou, why don't he confer the post of shepherd in Liangzhou?"

Cao Ren, who was sitting at the head of the military commander, seconded his opinion.Cao Cao pondered for a while, then shook his head soon.

"The land of Liangzhou was taken by Wen Bufan with one soldier at a time, and his soldiers and horses were everywhere in Liangzhou. Whether Liangzhou is a herdsman or not is irrelevant to Wen Bufan.

Of course, if he won the position of Liangzhou shepherd, he would be able to rule Liangzhou in a legitimate way.This can also be included as one of the bargaining chips, and it can also be used as the icing on the cake. "

Afterwards, Cao Cao discussed with all civil and military officials for nearly two hours, but they could not come up with a feasible solution.

At this moment, His Highness was silent, Cao Cao's expression froze, and he stood up abruptly.

"It seems that I still have to make an appointment with Feifan in person before I can decide on this matter."

Cao Cao paid attention to the settlement, and immediately drew up a letter, ordering the envoy to rush to Hedong.At this time, Cao Cao's whole mind was almost focused on Guo Jia's illness. Guo Jia hadn't been out of danger for a whole day, so it was really difficult for Cao Cao to plan his great cause with peace of mind.

This is the end of the story of the Central Plains.Look at the south of the world, Jiaozhou.

The land of Jiaozhou borders Jiangdong, Yizhou, and Jingzhou, and is far away from the Central Plains. It is difficult for the imperial court to administer it. Therefore, there are often ambitious people who stand on their own in Jiaozhou.

In the past, Zhu Fu, the governor of Jiaozhou, was greedy and levied heavy taxes on the counties of Jiaozhou. As a result, the people rebelled and was killed. The later Han Dynasty sent Zhang Jin as the new governor.Unexpectedly, Zhang Jin is also an ambitious person. He abandoned the previous sacred scriptures, abolished the laws of the Han family, tasted crimson handkerchiefs, played the zither and burned incense, read evil customs, and talked about it to help change, hoping to win people's hearts and confuse the people. , and became king in Jiaozhou.It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, Zhang Jin's ambition was discovered by his subordinate general Qu Jing, and soon he was killed by the district design.

Zhang Jin was killed. Ou Jing saw that Liu Biao, the shepherd of Jingzhou, was powerful at that time, so he led the crowd to vote.After Liu Biao learned of this, he wanted to take advantage of the chaos in Jiaozhou and send troops to seize it.So Liu Biao sent general Lai Gong to take Zhang Jin's place, and at the same time sent Wu Ju as prefect of Cangwu to replace Shi Huang, the former prefect who had died of illness.

Liu Biao wanted to consolidate the power of Jiaozhou. In order to prevent Liu Biao from becoming too powerful, the Han court issued an imperial edict to appoint Shi Xie as the "General of Suinan Zhonglang" and Dong Du to control the seven counties of Jiaozhou to seize Liu Biao's power.
