No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion

Chapter 997 Double Standards
It is actually quite difficult to achieve immediate results in running a school, but Ou Mengmeng doesn't care. She is very patient in this regard. However, this is the Three Kingdoms period, not an era where she can run a school with peace of mind.

Jiangdong was in full swing, but Liu Bei sent a letter for help. Because Liu Bei and Liu Biao's son Liu Qi were both seriously ill, and they didn't have a good doctor. So they asked them to send Zhang Zhongjing back.

When Sun Quan talked to the old lady, she was stunned for a moment. "Why are you telling me this? Shouldn't you tell Zhang Zhongjing about this?" "Besides, I told you to kill Zhuge Jin before, but you didn't listen. Why are you talking about Zhang Zhongjing now? You can't say that the old lady is critically ill and can't leave her alone, right?"
In fact, Sun Quan really meant this. Liu Bei and Liu Qi were seriously ill, and they wanted Zhang Zhongjing to go back. Sun Quan was too embarrassed to say no, so he still wanted to refuse on the grounds of his mother.

After all, the old lady went to the school to play, but she didn't use the name of Wu Guotai. She was just an old lady who liked the hustle and bustle. She lived nearby, so she went there to play. When the old lady saw Sun Lang, she pretended not to know him and didn't allow Sun Lang to call her. Anyway, we each have our own fun, don't disturb my fun.

Therefore, the whole world still thought that Wu Guotai was seriously ill. At this time, there was really nothing wrong with Sun Quan using this as an excuse.

"Gongjin, what do you think?" Ou Mengmeng looked at Zhou Yu. The overall situation in Jingzhou had been decided, so Zhou Yu did not return to Jiangling, but was in charge of the overall situation in Nanxu. I don't know if it was because Sun Quan was so confident recently, Sun Quan didn't have as much grudge against Zhou Yu as before, and the two of them cooperated more and more in sync.

"I think the two families should still cooperate to fight against Cao. Liu Qi is the son of Liu Biao and is quite popular in Jingzhou..." Zhou Yu said hurriedly. He was sure that Zhang Zhongjing could not go back, but now there were practical problems. He didn't care whether Liu Bei lived or died. The key point was that it was not that Liu Qi could not be allowed to die, but that they in Jiangdong had to have an attitude and not let Zhang Zhongjing go. If Liu Qi died, would Jiangdong be accused of not letting the doctor go back?

"Zhang Zhongjing was originally the governor of Changsha. He was transferred to the Imperial Medical Bureau as the chief physician by order of the emperor. Is he a doctor? He is an official. Now he is in charge of the qualification and grading of doctors in the world, which is a major event related to the welfare of the people of the world. I don't know whether Mr. Zhang is a famous doctor, but I know that famous doctors in the world are waiting for Mr. Zhang to grade them."

"Mother, you asked your son to carve the stone scripture for Doctor Zhang." Sun Quan couldn't help but interrupt. His meaning was very clear. Before, you wanted to praise Zhang Zhongjing, so you asked me to carve the stone scripture for him. Now that someone else wants it, you immediately change your words and say that he is not a doctor, but an official. Does the world know that you are so casual?

Ou Mengmeng was stunned for a moment. This, it seems, is also true. She did it to elevate Zhang Zhongjing's status. Now it seems that it is a bit impossible to take it back.

"Well..." Ou Mengmeng stuttered and quickly changed the subject, "Why is Liu Bei sick?"

"It is said that he caught a cold on the way back, and he was in such a hurry that he was delayed. By the time he returned, all the doctors had gone to Jiangdong, and only a few military doctors were left. After all the treatments, it seemed that none of them were getting better." Sun Quan hurriedly explained.

"Is it a heart disease?" Although medical resources are a big problem at this time, Liu Bei fell ill on the way back. This doesn't look like a simple cold. Although Liu Bei loves to cry, he is in good health. As mentioned before, in 223 AD, he was able to lead troops out of Shu to avenge his second brother. Although he failed, it shows that he was still able to lead troops in his sixties, so his health was good. So this time, because he didn't get married and didn't take advantage of Jiangdong, was he too sad for a while and fell ill?

"My son and Gongjin also thought so. Zijing (Lu Su) wrote back that Liu Bei was very depressed when he returned." Sun Quan was a little gloating. Look, a small plot to alienate Liu Bei made this person with a heart disease difficult to cure. His eyes looked greener because of his happiness. Zhou Yu nodded and agreed with him. When he received the letter, he empathized with Liu Bei at that time. Sure enough, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. He and Liu Bei were both stimulated by Zhuge Liang. However, he felt very lucky and cheered himself up. Because he found that Zhuge Liang was no better than him in terms of strategy. But Liu Bei had no choice, because what he was competing for was not wisdom, but time. Could he get back twenty years? If he couldn't get it back, he could only hold it in. So, it was useless to give him a doctor.

"Well, Lord Zhang is an official appointed by the court. How can he leave his post without permission? Why not send a few experts over there, and take a few young people with them? They should read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles, and tell the young doctors that it counts as achievements and they should perform well." Ou Mengmeng swallowed her saliva. She still felt that Zhang Zhongjing could not be sent over there. Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were not very shameless!
"You really are. If my son says so, it would be better to let Master Zhang take the students." Sun Lang was also there, and he had been listening for a long time. Did his second brother and mother fight for the doctor? He tilted his head and thought about it.

"Why?" Ou Mengmeng was not a politician. She had the same idea as Sun Quan and did not want to let Zhang Zhongjing leave. But since her youngest son said so, she did not want to discourage him, so she gave him a chance to speak.

"You also said that Lord Zhang is an official appointed by the court. My second brother sent him on a business trip. He is still an official and he has to come back. But you sent the masters there and they were left behind. It is their freedom." Sun Lang really felt that his mother had been confused all her life.

Sun Quan and Zhou Yu thought so too, they forgot about it. But, it is not true. At this moment, the Han Dynasty is still there, but the warlords are fighting for power, and everyone wants to seize the Han emperor to their own territory, so that they can control the princes. The main reason is that no one wants to be the first ruler to depose and enthrone. To them, the Han emperor is just a puppet. Didn't they "transfer" Zhang Zhongjing to Jiangdong in the first place? Now Zhuge Liang is being polite and discussing with them. When he really arrives at the place and governs it, who knows if they will "ask for permission" to keep him.

However, Sun Lang did provide a new idea. Zhang Zhongjing had a great responsibility in Jiangdong, so he had to make it clear to him before he left. Even Zhang Zhongjing himself would not agree to stay in Jingzhou. If it were those masters, they might have set up their own schools. This was very likely.

"As expected, you still have to get out and gain experience. Xiaowu has grown up just by looking at him." Sun Quan nodded quickly, looking at his brother with approval.

Zhou Yu didn't know that Sun Lang was working for Zhang Zhongjing yet. He looked around and thought that maybe the Fifth Young Master should come out to help his lord. "My lord, I think the Fifth Young Master is quite talented. He can..."

"You can leave now." The old lady knocked on the table, not allowing Zhou Yu to continue. What kind of person is this? Can't you see others doing well?
"Didn't you just say that reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles?" Zhou Yu also realized that this old lady had double standards. Other people's children had to study more, but her children had to stay by her side.

Sun Quan laughed again, stood up quickly, bowed to the old lady, and pulled Zhou Yu out.

I'm studying the ancient method of papermaking! It's really difficult.
