Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 755

In midsummer, Wei Zhiyang, a physician at the Royal Hospital, and his wife returned to their hometown to Ning to escape the summer heat.

Doctor Wei's reputation in the imperial hospital is not very prominent, he is gentle and steady, although young, his medical skills are not bad.Although it is much inferior to Xinglin's national players, it can be regarded as an upper-middle level.The imperial physicians and physicians in the imperial hospital usually form alliances with the empresses in the harem, and each has a loyal master. One is to find a backer for himself, and the other is to take the opportunity to make some money.

Among them, Wei Zhiyang seemed to be a bit of a maverick.He has been an official for several years, and has never entered the inner palace to take the pulse of the master of the harem. Even if the master asked him to ask for the pulse of peace, he declined, saying that he was not skilled in medicine and did not dare to offend the phoenix body of the masters. It was just asking for the pulse of the adults, describing the disease to the point, and the prescription was mild and symptomatic. I also asked the emperor for a few times for peace of mind, and I have a good reputation among the officials.

"My husband once said that people are like walking on thin ice in the officialdom. Taking advantage of this opportunity, my husband can take a good rest." Dr. Wei's wife, Sun Shi, is about the same age as him, and the two entered into a marriage contract when they were young.The husband and wife are both gentle people. They have never had a quarrel since they got married. They have two sons and a daughter under their knees. I like it, and asked her about her relationship with her husband, and found that the two of them are "model couples".

Wei Zhiyang stroked his forehead, took a rough breath and said, "Although it's not my turn to talk about the affairs of the court, I must understand clearly when I'm in it. Although the Holy Majesty is in his prime, the princes under his knees are all Extremely intelligent people, the main ladies and wives all have good backgrounds, all the adults have steelyards in their hearts, and they are evaluating the masters who will be loyal to them in the future. After all, the world will not be held in the hands of the Holy One... A few days ago There are also ministers who have asked the sage to appoint the crown prince, I am timid, so it is better to avoid it."

Mrs. Sun smiled gently and said: "My husband doesn't say anything, I know that my husband doesn't want to cause trouble to Prince Pingjun and Concubine Pingjun, it will only arouse suspicion, otherwise the Holy Majesty would not just let him go back to his hometown like this."

Wei Zhiyang patted her hand and smiled: "It's also in your name."

Wei Zhi threatened that his wife's mother-in-law was ill, and he accompanied his wife back home to take care of the illness.The Holy One governs the world with filial piety, so Wei Zhiyang's request will naturally be approved by him.This is one layer.The other layer is indeed as Sun said, it is to avoid the jealousy of King Pingjun and Princess Pingjun.

Princess Pingjun is Wei Zhiyang's adoptive mother and sister. Although she is several years younger than him, Wei Zhiyang still respectfully calls her "Auntie".This is in terms of seniority.In terms of status, Princess Pingjun is the royal daughter-in-law, and that is what Wei Zhiyang must look up to.

After careful calculation, Princess Pingjun is also the person with the highest status in the whole family.

Prince Pingjun does not participate in political affairs, so he can be regarded as an idle king, but his reputation among the people is very high.Because he didn't like political affairs, and only studied poetry, poetry and other romantic matters, the emperor was very relieved of him.It's just that at this critical juncture of establishing a crown prince, Prince Pingjun couldn't escape being dragged into this pool of muddy water.There are not a few people in Beijing who are related to Princess Pingjun. During this period of time, many people came to Wei's house. Wei Zhiyang was also very annoyed, so he simply found a reason to return home with his wife and children to avoid it for a while.

The carriage was moving steadily, Wei Zhiyang's eldest son and second son were sitting in another carriage, and the youngest daughter was sleeping soundly in the corner, with sweat dripping from her temples.Sun took a handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat from her forehead, sat next to Wei Zhiyang, and asked in a low voice: "Husband, when are we going back this time? Will we blame you when we return to Jingsheng after the New Year? "

Wei Zhiyang waved his hands and said with a smile: "There are many imperial physicians in the Royal Hospital, and some doctors are standing in front of them. I am just a doctor. It doesn't make much difference whether I have me or not. When I arrive in the village, I will first check the situation in the court. If swords are still on the verge, the situation is unknown , I will make another report, saying that my mother-in-law is still ill, and I dare not leave her to return to Beijing alone for the time being, the Holy One values ​​filial piety, and will not criticize me harshly, just fine me some salary."

Wei Zhiyang took Sun's hand and sighed: "I just use my mother-in-law's body to talk about things, I really feel ashamed of my mother-in-law."

"Mother has always liked you as a son-in-law. If you use her as a shield, she will not blame you, but will be happy. After all, when you return to your hometown this time, you are under the guise of serving mother's illness." Sun smiled and said, Picking up the palm-leaf fan to fan Wei Zhiyang, after fanning for a while, he leaned down to fan his daughter. Hearing her daughter's cry, Sun couldn't help but smile.

"Speaking of which, my mother has tried her best to get me married from the very beginning. I also miss her very much."

Wei Zhiyang put his arms around Sun's shoulders, reached out to take the cattail fan in her hand and said, "I'll come."

While fanning his daughter, he said softly to Mrs. Sun: "Mother-in-law has always treated me like a parent and child, and I respect her from the bottom of my heart. I have been in Beijing all these years, except for bringing some gifts back on New Years and festivals. It is a shame to be filial in front of her. My mother-in-law only has two daughters. Although your sister is married close, it is a pity that you are not by my side. We will serve her well in front of my mother-in-law when we go back this time. , I will try my best to delay my return to Beijing."

Sun's eyes were slightly wet, she nodded and said: "Okay, thank you husband."

"You and my husband, why are you so polite." Wei Zhiyang patted Sun's hand with a smile, and the husband and wife were silent for a while.After a long time, Mrs. Sun said softly: "I'm going back this time, and I have to go and see my fifth aunt."

"That's natural." Wei Zhiyang said with a slight smile: "My fifth aunt was my first teacher when I was studying medicine. Without her teaching and supervision, I would not have been admitted to the Royal Hospital to become a doctor. It was also my fifth aunt who told me , let me not be too sharp, so as not to make people jealous, but I will not be able to get along in the Xinglin world." Wei Zhiyang sighed: "Mother once told me that I am young, and I must not do things that are in the limelight, but it is not enough. The fifth aunt put it bluntly, the fifth aunt set the rules for me. When I arrive at the Royal Hospital, I must never have anything to do with the empresses. I can protect myself wisely."

"Although Fifth Aunt has never been to the imperial hospital, she can see these things very clearly." Sun nodded and said, "Now Fifth Aunt is still working in the medicine hall, so you don't have to worry, you will definitely see her when you return home. "

After a day's journey, Wei Zhiyang and his party entered the inn to rest for the night.The three children were taken down to wash and rest, and Mrs. Sun also waited on Wei Zhiyang to take a shower. The husband and wife dressed in cool clothes, and opened the night windows to enjoy the cool breeze.

Sun sat on a chair with her elbows propped up and looked at Wei Zhiyang who was standing by the window, and she felt very satisfied just watching him quietly like this.

There is no vigorous relationship between their husband and wife, unlike Wei Zhiyang's brother Shan Zi, who chased the female pirate of the Hai family for three years before chasing her back with her baby, making the Li family go crazy; Like Wei Zhiyang's little uncle, he frankly married the daughter of the Liu family who had been criticized in Beijing into his family, causing an uproar in Beijing.They are like most ordinary couples in the world. When they were young, because their parents had a good relationship, they made a marriage agreement when they saw that they were of the right age. When they reached a certain age, they fulfilled the marriage contract and let them get married. man of.

She is lucky, her mother is a wise woman, everything is arranged for her and her sister very well.She is very grateful to her mother for choosing such a husband for her.

She has been meek since she was a child, not as agile as her younger sister.At that time, when my mother told her about the marriage with her younger sister, she had already remembered, so she also remembered that the current mother-in-law who called Aunt Xin by herself at that time liked her lively younger sister even more.But the one who finally made the marriage contract with her husband was himself.

Before getting married, my mother told her repeatedly: "Although this child, Hucheng, is not your own son, Uncle Guan and Aunt Xin, you Uncle Guan and the others treat him as their own son. He has a good temper, and is extremely filial and sensible. Get along with him heart-to-heart, mother believes that you will be able to live a good life."

Although she was engaged since she was a child, she didn't have much contact with Wei Zhiyang, so after she got married, she always followed what her mother said, and got along very well with him, and the relationship between the two became more and more warm.

Before I knew it, so many years had passed.

Sun was just thinking about it, when suddenly she heard Wei Zhiyang calling her: "Heng'er."

"Huh?" Mrs. Sun quickly woke up and replied, Wei Zhiyang smiled and waved to her: "Come here, watch the moon tonight."

Sun got up obediently and walked to his side, Wei Zhiyang gently pulled her to let her lean in his arms, pointed to the sky and said with a smile: "Is the moon very round today?"

Sun nodded with a smile: "Well, it's very round."

"The moon symbolizes reunion, which is a good omen." Wei Zhiyang held her tightly in his arms: "It's far away, but I still miss my hometown. When I see the moon, I think of my hometown."

Sun said with a smile: "I will be able to see my relatives when I go back. It's just that my father-in-law and mother-in-law are not here, so I always have some regrets."

Wei Zhiyang laughed twice: "Mother is an open-minded person. The two younger brothers have grown up, so she has nothing to worry about. Father promised Mother before that he would take her out of that small county town in Hui County to go to famous mountains and great rivers. See you in Huhai, this is nothing more than fulfilling your promise."

Sun leaned on Wei Zhiyang's shoulder, feeling the strong heartbeat coming from his chest, nodded in agreement and said, "Father-in-law and mother-in-law are really enviable..."

Wei Zhiyang laughed twice, and Sun said, "Husband, many people also envy us."

"Oh?" Wei Zhiyang smiled and said, "Why do you envy us?"

"Husband and wife... affectionate..." Mrs. Sun blushed shyly: "The empress dowager praised..."

Wei Zhiyang laughed even more: "It's true love."

Sun became more and more embarrassed.

Wei Zhiyang looked at her tenderly from the side: "Heng'er, you're already an old couple, and you're still so shy."

Sun was about to refute, but Wei Zhiyang added in a low voice: "However, I like it."

Summer nights are still long.
