The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 393 Imperial Physician Consultation

The Zhao Mansion is located in the northeast of the Imperial Palace. Starting from the north gate of the Imperial Palace, passing by Shifeng Commercial Bank, detouring through Tianjie, and walking northeast for about 10 minutes, you can see a simple and simple building, which was bestowed by the late Emperor Lizong more than 30 years ago. Zhao Kui's father, Zhao Fang's, doesn't look that big from the outside, and it can't be compared with Jia's house at all.

For convenience, I didn't take the golden sedan chair, but sat in an ordinary sedan chair with four imperial guards as bearers. About two quarters of an hour later, I heard Yuan Ji's voice: "My lord, please get off the sedan chair. Already in Mr. Zhao's mansion, "

The unprepared members of the Zhao family saw the emperor coming, and rushed in to inform Zhao Kui and Zhao Kui's son Zhao Huai.

"Crassman Zhao Huai came to see the emperor. My father was sick in bed and couldn't get up to meet him. Please forgive me."

I saw that Zhao Huai was in his early fifties and tall. If he wore armor, he must be a majestic general. Like Zhao Kui's righteous son Zhao Bao, who is the commander of the Lin'an Military Region, Zhao Huai is also a generation of all-round talents in civil and military affairs. , just because Zhao Kui is old, so the common people are always at home.

"Zhao Huai, don't be too polite, take me to visit your father,"

"Yes, Your Majesty,"

As soon as I entered the room, I signaled Zhao Kui who was lying on the bed not to get up: "Zhao Aiqing, just lie down and talk, are you feeling better?"

Zhao Huai's wives and concubines Cuilian and Luyun who were serving by the bed hurriedly got up and knelt down and said, "See Your Majesty."

"Excuse me,"

Zhao Kui half leaned against the head of the bed, excitedly said: "Thank you Your Majesty for coming, thank you for His Majesty's concern, the old minister is better."

From Zhao Kui's voice, I can tell that he is not in a good condition, and looking at his pale and sluggish face, it is obvious that he is dying.

Speaking of Zhao Huai and his two wives and concubines, there is still an epic legend in history.

When Mongolia invaded the south, Zhao Huai gathered a rebel army to fight against the enemy. In the end, he was outnumbered. He was captured by the Yuan army and taken to Guazhou. Poor and imprisoned, eternal loyalty still exists, fearless in everything, vows to repay the king with one's death, urgently asks the ancestors to lead quickly, and the concubine will not disgrace the family." After Zhao Huai sacrificed, A Shu saw Cuilian and Lvyun again, and wanted to accept As concubines, the two conspired and pretended to agree. The only condition was that Zhao Huai's body should be cremated into a box first. Sacrifice.

In the former residence of Zhao Huai in later generations, there are still two stone plaques, one for loyalty and filial piety, and the other for chastity. Heroes, women are steadfast.

Sitting in front of the bed, I suddenly thought of the memorial to Zhao Kui I saw last night. This general galloping on the battlefield was dying. Occasionally I feel cold, just take good care of me, and I will recover. There are still many things in the court that need Ai Qing, and I also need Ai Qing, especially when there is a war in the next year, and the army needs a veteran like you to lead the battle."

"Your Majesty, the old minister's health is clear to me. Your Majesty, these days, the old minister has thought a lot. With His Majesty's ability, it is just around the corner to unify the world and restore the prosperity of the Han and Tang Dynasties. The veteran has a suggestion. At present, the ministers in the court are generally too old. Your Majesty should adjust the personnel appropriately and promote more young officials to adapt to the future development situation,"

"Young cadres," I thought of this formulation in later generations.

"Zhao Aiqing, this suggestion is very good, I will consider it carefully,"

"Thank you Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I have one more thing to do, Zhao Huai, come here."

"Yes, Father,"

"Your Majesty, the old minister has two sons. One is Zhao Bao, the adopted son who served in the army, and Zhao Huai. Because the old minister is old, Zhao Huai has been taking care of him at home. Your Majesty, although Zhao Huai, the dog son, has not joined the army for a long time, Just like Zhao Bao, the bow, horse and spear skills and the strategy of marching have never been put aside. After the old minister is gone, please allow Zhao Huai to join our Great Song Army. If the old minister cannot follow His Majesty to the front line, let the dog fight on behalf of the father."

"Zhao Aiqing, you will be able to recover after recuperating for a while. When the time comes, you will lead Zhao Bao and Zhao Huai to fight together. The father and son will join forces to attack Mongolia in the north. It will surely become a good story."

Zhao Kui laughed, and then coughed violently again, and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister also hopes for such a day."

"Okay, since that's the case, Zhao Aiqing can take a rest. I have just returned and have a lot of business. I will come to see you after a while. As for the Ministry of Agriculture, old Aiqing doesn't have to worry about it. I will let my servant Yang Dong take the lead temporarily,"

"Yes, Your Majesty,"

I got up and said, "Zhao Huai, take good care of your father, come to the palace to find me if you need something."

"Caomin knows, thank you for His Majesty's favor,"

In the reception room on the first floor of Shifeng Commercial Bank, I met ten attending doctors from the imperial medical bureau and the palace, including the imperial physician Ling Tang Lei and the imperial physician Zhou Hui whom I knew, and two other old people Chen Ziming and Yan Yonghe, masters of medicine of the Royal Academy of Sciences.

"See Your Majesty,"

"Dear dears, please take a seat without courtesy,"

"Thank you, Your Majesty,"

I cut to the chase and said, "I invite everyone to come today. There are two things. One is about Zhao Kui and Zhao Aiqing's illness. Everyone, although Zhao Aiqing is old, she has been a military commander for many years and has made her healthy. Why is she suddenly so? There's nothing you can do to prolong its lifespan,"

Tang Lei stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I have already consulted with the ministers, and I have tried my best to temporarily delay Lord Zhao until now. Although Lord Zhao has practiced martial arts all his life and is physically strong, the signs of life in his body are weak, and the signs of organ failure are very serious. Seriously, there is no other way to go, everyone agrees, Mr. Zhao is afraid, I am afraid that time is running out."

"Tang Aiqing, how long is it?"

"Return to His Majesty, it will be about ten days and a half months,"

I said sadly: "It's so short, that is to say, it's hard to get through even this month,"

"Yes, Your Majesty,"

Although I don't know medical skills, I also know that the ten imperial doctors in front of me, as well as Chen Ziming and Yan Yongshu, are all people with superb medical skills, representing the highest medical level of the Song Dynasty in this era, and they should not lose to Hua Yipin and Jiya. The conclusion after the consultation should not be wrong.

I suddenly remembered the ginseng plant Zhang Tianshi gave Linger: "My dear friends, is 3000-year-old ginseng useful?"

"3000 years," Chen Ziming and Yan Yongshu said with a look of joy on their faces, "Your Majesty, if there are 3000-year-old ginseng, it can last for about half a month, but listen to Master Tang's words , there is only one plant of ginseng in the palace that is more than 1000 years old, and my subordinates have only heard of the existence of top-quality ginseng that is two or three thousand years old, but they have never seen it before."

"I happen to have a small piece of it there, I'll give it to you later, let Zhao Aiqing take it,"

"Yes, Your Majesty,"

"The second thing is about amnesia,"

"Amnesia," Zhou Hui lost his voice, "Your Majesty, amnesia is an extremely intractable disease, and it can even be said to have gone beyond the scope of medicine."

I nodded and said: "Amnesia is a disease in which the memory function of the brain malfunctions, and I know it is very difficult to cure.

Tang Lei said: "Your Majesty, who is the patient, let me wait to see the patient before discussing."

"En, Shen Mo,"

"The minister is here," Shen Mo, who was outside the door, entered in response.

"Go and bring Ling'er,"

As I expected, after nearly half an hour of consultation with twelve medical experts, there was still no result, let alone a feasible plan.

Zhou Hui said: "Your Majesty, I have heard from my late master that there is a [-]% chance of recovering from amnesia only if you repeat the process of amnesia under the same circumstances."

Fang Ling was injured by the sum of three peerless forces in Xiaoyao Pavilion. I dare not take the risk of letting the powerful inner energy impact her brain again.

"Zhou Aiqing, I've heard what you said before," I said with a slight frown, "I'm here first, Shen Mo, and I'll send you gentlemen back."

According to the records of later generations, a patient with amnesia stumbled somewhere and happened to hit the brain, and the patient recovered his memory immediately. However, this method only happened unintentionally, and no doctor dared to beat the patient hard on purpose brain.

After the imperial doctors left, Fang Ling saw that I was in a bad mood, and persuaded me instead: "Brother, don't worry, Ling'er can eat and sleep now, there is nothing wrong,"

"Well," I looked at Fang Lingdao lovingly, "Ling'er, don't worry, brother will definitely cure your amnesia."

"You know, my brother is the smartest,"

"Ling'er, let's go to the opposite Red Cross, that's where you work,"

In Lin'an City, there are three places Fang Ling is most familiar with. One is the Chengwei Escort, the other is the Shifeng Commercial Firm, and the other is the Red Cross. For any amnesia patient, go to the place he is most familiar with. , the probability of awakening the memory is relatively high.

The staff of the Red Society all knew Fang Ling. As one of the two vice presidents, Fang Ling, who was also approachable, had a very harmonious relationship with all the staff in the society. At this time, when everyone saw Fang Ling coming in, they rushed Come and say hello.

"Vice President Fang, hello,"

"I met Vice President Fang,"

Where did Fang Ling remember their names, she could only smile and nod instead of answering.

Walking into the vice president's office upstairs, Lin Ying looked around curiously. After a while, she saw Fang Ling sitting on the office chair and praised: "Sister Linger, this is your office. I'm so envious."

I was a little surprised and said: "Miss Lin, this place is not big, what are you envious of?"

"Young master, as a daughter's family, sister Ling'er can work like a man, and she is also the vice president of the Red Society, which makes me envious."

I smiled: "I see, Miss Lin, if you want, you can also go to the Red Society first to do things,"

Lin Ying excitedly said, "Can I do it too?"

Fang Ling was afraid that what I said would not count, so he hurriedly said: "Of course, brother, you say yes,"

I nodded and said, "Ling'er, yes."

Lin Ying said: "Well, my lord, I will come here to work with sister Ling'er from now on,"

At this time, an old voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Master, Miss Fang, you are back,"
