Man Tanghong

Chapter 475 The Stubborn Guanzhong People
The reason is that the great-grandson of the old Yutou fell from the tree while picking green apricots and broke his arm, just happened to be seen by Lu Yishou who was passing by, and Lu Yishou easily connected it.

No matter what the old Yutou said, he wanted to invite Lu Yishou to dinner, but Lu Yishou couldn't help it and went.

As a result, Lao Yutou slaughtered the family's sheep in order to treat Lu Yishou favorably.

Prepared a whole sheep feast for Lu Yishou.

Lu Yishou didn't eat anything, and blamed others for killing the livestock that could be sold in the family for such a trivial matter. In the end, he only drank a bowl of haggis, ate two mutton cakes, and left.

If that's the only way, then this matter is over.

But Lu Yishou shouldn't have done it, he shouldn't have sent someone to send money back after he left, saying it was sheep's money.

This can be regarded as poking a hornet's nest.

Old Yutou felt that he had been slapped on the face more than once, so he quit immediately and made a fuss in Chang'an Xinglu.

The house of Xinglu in Chang'an is exactly Sun Simiao, but Sun Simiao is obsessed with medical skills, he doesn't care about things, and Cao Jiucheng is in charge.

So Cao Jiucheng stood up to make peace, asked Lu Yishou to apologize to Lao Yutou, and get back the money, and then went to Lao Yutou's house to have a meal, and the matter was over.

Go to Lao Yutou's house for a meal, this is Lao Yutou's request.

The old Yutou said bluntly, their Yu family has stayed in Chang'an for seven or eight lifetimes, and they have never treated their benefactor harshly, so they will let Lu Yishou go back and have another meal no matter what.

He doesn't care about apologizing or anything, but eating a meal is a must, and there is no need to discuss it.

Lu Yishou also had a stubborn temper, and he was unwilling to get the money back no matter what, let alone go to Lao Yutou's house for a meal.

Cao Jiucheng ran to ask Lao Yutou to take a step back, saying that he didn't want the money, and he didn't want to eat, so he pretended that this had never happened.

Old Yutou felt that his face had been slapped again, and he was still beaten by the steward of Chang'an Xinglu. He was about to break his arm immediately and return the kindness to Chang'an Xinglu.

Chang'an Xinglu is full of people who are saving lives. They would watch Lao Yutou self-mutilate, so he immediately stopped Lao Yutou and invited Sun Simiao to come forward.

The old Yutou gave Sun Simiao a face, saying that instead of breaking his arm at the gate of Xinglu in Chang'an, he went to the steward's office where the steward of Jiulongtan Mountain was instead.

The steward of the management institute did not dare to watch a [-]-year-old man break his arm under his nose, nor did he dare to use force on a [-]-year-old man. The matter was reported to Jiudao Palace.

Logically speaking, Yang Miaoyan took over this matter up to this point.

With Yang Miaoyan's identity and the way he handles things, he can easily resolve this matter.

However, Li Yuanji himself was mean, and after hearing about such a thing, he had someone take him to Jiudao Palace to intervene in person.

Then the current scene was formed.

Old Yutou wants to let Lu Yishou go to his house for a meal, and if he doesn't eat, he will return his arm to Lu Yishou.

Lu Yishou would not let Lao Yutou break his arm, let alone go to his house for a meal.

Just two sentences and one matter, the two talked for half an hour without giving in to each other.

Even facing him, a prince who is famous for his domineering world, he is not at all stage frightened.

Lu Yishou is pure and noble, relying on his skills, he doesn't mix in officialdom, and he doesn't care about the powerful.

Old Yutou has seen the world.

Li Yuanji smelled the scent of a fierce soldier in the army from Lao Yutou. After asking a lot, he found out that Lao Yutou was a palace guard in the former Sui Dynasty, and also participated in the first campaign against Goguryeo in the former Sui Dynasty. fighting.

And it was after that war that he was discharged from the army. He didn't say the specific reason.

But I think it has something to do with the failure of the former Sui Dynasty's first conquest of Goguryeo.

Otherwise, with the old Yutou's experience, it is impossible to be just a commoner.

Li Yuanji didn't care that Lao Yutou had done such things as a former Sui palace guard.

There are a lot of this kind of people in Chang'an City, and there are still a lot of incumbent palace guards living on the plain where the Jingwei River meets.

They are all old people who followed Li Yuan from Taiyuan, and they were assigned to the left and right guards one by one, serving as Li Yuan's Yuan Cong forbidden army, and the father died and the son replaced them endlessly.

After the new king succeeds to the throne, if no corrections are made, their descendants will also become the emperor's followers.

It was precisely because of their special identities and special responsibilities that Li Yuan allocated the most fertile land at the confluence of the Jing and Wei rivers to them after he took control of Chang'an City.

Therefore, in the land of Chang'an, it is not unusual to meet someone who is a palace guard.

If no one in the ancestors has ever been an emperor, or if there is no famous saint who has been passed down through the ages, it is embarrassing to say that he has been rich or young for generations.

After all, after the fall of the former Sui Dynasty, when members of the former Sui royal family could still appear in the Li and Tang royal families, the dignitaries of the previous dynasties and generations, or the remnants of the royal family, could live well in the Tang Dynasty .

Therefore, in the Tang Dynasty, especially in Chang'an City, the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty, if you want to show your identity, and want people to value you because of your identity, then you must have a very rich ancestral legacy.

Otherwise, you will not be able to get on the stage, and you will not be qualified to discuss your status with others.

"How about... let's make a compromise?"

Li Yuanji saw that the two of them became more and more stubborn as they talked, and looked like they were about to make a move, so he couldn't help but say something.

Old Yutou and Lu Yishou stared at each other for a while, and stopped arguing.

The old Yutou poked his neck and said: "Your Highness, the villain is the farmer of your house, and he will listen to whatever you say. However, whatever the villain says, you have to treat him to a good meal.

Otherwise, if it spreads, others say that our farmer in Prince Qi's mansion treats his benefactor harshly, that villain will lose face, and you will lose face too. "

The old Yutou's words are very nice, and he has a lot of thoughts.

It seems that Li Yuanji listens to everything, but in fact he has already made a conclusion.

That is, you must treat Lu Yishou to a good meal, otherwise he will lose face and Li Yuanji will lose face.

And Li Yuanji, as the judge, would let himself lose face?

He kept claiming to be the householder of Prince Qi's Mansion, but if he looked at it carefully, he was indeed his own.

If Li Yuanji remembered correctly, more than half of the farm households attached to the mountain were the family members of the guards in the mansion, that is to say, the son of Lao Yutou might also be the guards of his mansion.

So the old Yutou is all his own people anyway.

But Lu Yishou is also one of his own.

No matter in name or in fact, Chang'an Xinglu is the property of Prince Qi's Mansion, and the people inside are naturally considered as members of Prince Qi's Mansion.

The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh, so how can Li Yuanji treat one person more favorably than another.

"Your Highness, this subordinate is a doctor, and it is his duty to heal the sick and save the sick, how can he seek rewards from others?
If this trend is encouraged, some unruly people will inevitably use this to amass a lot of money, and some despicable people will even use the suffering of patients as a threat to seek the family fortune of patients. If things go on like this, what medical ethics can there be?

Therefore, I hope that His Highness can rectify the medical ethics, and invite Lao Yutou to go back, and stop inviting my subordinates to have a banquet. "

Lu raised his head slightly with one hand, and said neither humble nor overbearing.

If someone else heard Lu Yishou's words, they probably wouldn't have too much thought, they would just think that Lu Yishou was a little worrying and making a fuss out of a molehill.

But when Li Yuanji heard this, he felt a lot in his heart.

He knew what would happen if the medical ethics of doctors were corrupted by money.

So he didn't think at all that Lu Yishou was worrying unfoundedly, it was making a fuss out of a molehill, but he felt that what Lu Yishou said was very reasonable.

As a doctor, you should respect virtue, not money.

"You guys, what do you think of this? If I invite you to a banquet, it will be treated as a reward to Dr. Lu on behalf of the old Yutou. Dr. Lu will take back the money sent to the Yu family, how about it?"

Li Yuanji asked in a consultative tone.

Both Lao Yutou and Lu Yishou showed hesitation.

The old Yutou couldn't help but said: "Then the master's family is at a loss..."

Lu Yishou also hesitated and said: "But the sheep that Yushi used to sell for money have already been slaughtered. If you don't take money from your subordinates, the loss will be huge."

Li Yuanji thought for a while and said: "Well, I will sell that sheep with money, and I will get some more money. Old Yutou, you can help buy a few more sheep, then cook them, and send them to Chang'an Xinglu together." How about letting all the doctors have a good meal as my reward?"

Lu Yishou nodded thoughtfully, and did not speak further.

If he did this, it would not harm the interests of Lao Yutou's family. As the owner of Chang'an Xinglu, it was common for Li Yuanji to reward Chang'an Xinglu, so he didn't have to worry about Li Yuanji's expenses, so he was fine.

But the old Yutou was still a little dissatisfied, and hurriedly said: "Then the master's family is losing money? How can this be done?"

Old Yutou is not the kind of person who doesn't take advantage of others, and he will not be polite if there is a bargain delivered to his door.

But he has his bottom line in doing things, that is, he does not take advantage of his conscience.

Li Yuanji, the head of the family, treated all their farmers well, saying that they received [-]% of their grain every year, but when it came time to pay the grain, they would basically return it in an alternative way.

For example, a few feet of cloth for this family, a plowshare for that family, or a cow for three or five families together.

All in all, when the grain is handed over every year, the Qi Wangfu will return gifts of equal value to the amount of grain that the farmers pay to the Qiwangfu.

It is said to be a reward, so it cannot be refused.

The children of each of their families who worked in Prince Qi's mansion were not treated harshly, and they were treated very well. Not to mention the rewards during festivals and festivals, they could also share some meat from the royal hunting grounds at four o'clock.

When their families were in trouble, or were bullied by some dignitary, they could also use the iron plate given by the Qi Palace to ask people from the Qi Palace to come forward and ask for an explanation for them.

It can be said that the treatment of them by Prince Qi's Mansion is absolutely the best among all the nobles in Chang'an City. They have no way to repay King Qi's Mansion, they can only keep the goodness of Prince Qi's Mansion in their hearts.

Now if Prince Qi's Mansion is asked to spend money to help them solve their small problems, none of them will agree.

Old Yutou, as a person of status in the household, how could he agree.

"Well, Chang'an Xinglu is short of some people to help the doctors collect medicines recently. You can help me for a while, and you won't be paid. You can eat and drink for two meals. It's repaying me, how about it?"

Li Yuanji still asked in a discussing tone.

He is very clear that communicating with this kind of person, especially this kind of person who is full of good intentions, cannot be forced.

You are hard, he is harder than you.

You can decide his life or death, but when his temper comes up, he is not afraid of death.

What else can you do with others?
Really slaughtered people?

When the old Yutou heard this, he thought about it, then raised his head and said: "It's fine, but it's agreed, just eat, not pay."

Li Yuanji smiled angrily, "Of course!"

The old Yutou also grinned, and bowed respectfully to Li Yuanji: "Your Highness is really kind, regardless of the villain's disrespect, the villain is here to apologize to His Highness."

Li Yuanji waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't talk about so many useless things, you can do some errands and let the person at the door pass the meal."

Lao Yu quickly agreed with a headache, and ran to the door to deliver the message.

When Lao Yutou ran to the door, Lu Yishou couldn't help but said, "Your Highness really want him to do a job for nothing?"

Li Yuanji glanced at Lu Yishou and said, "How is it possible? After he works in Chang'an Xinglu for a period of time, you can ask Cao Jiucheng to recruit him as a door officer, and add in the wages he paid for this period of time for nothing. give him."

Lu was stunned for a moment, and said in astonishment: "Is he suitable? He has such a stubborn temper, and he can't offend many people by being a sect?"

Li Yuanji smiled and said, "It's because of his stubborn temper that I let him be my disciple."

Ever since Chang'an Xinglu was built and opened, patients from all over the world have come to visit him, especially after hearing that Xue Shou's hidden illnesses were spotted by the doctors there and cured easily. There are even more people who come here admiringly.

There are also some people who want to take the opportunity to cling to the nobles who are healing in Chang'an Xinglu, and they also come.

So besides patients from all walks of life, Chang'an Xinglu now gathers a lot of unknown people.

Li Yuanji founded Chang'an Xinglu with the purpose of curing diseases and saving lives, and improving the medical standard of Datang, not to provide a social place for some unknown people.

Therefore, it is necessary to find a principled, bold and cautious person for Chang'an Xinglu to guard the gate who is not afraid of offending others.

Old Yutou is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

Although the old Yutou always looks fearless and stubborn when he talks.

But people are very measured in their speech, they say what they should say with confidence, and they don't say a word that should not be said, and they behave in a reasonable and well-founded manner.

If such a person is more than ten years younger, it will be no problem to train him to be an official, let alone a disciple.
