Chapter 310 Big brother-in-law's illness

Du Wenhao didn't like Yu Ge's cloudy and sometimes sunny expression the most when he was a child. Why did he look so mature at such a young age? Xue Fei'er was older than her, and she didn't have as many thoughts as her, even if it was for a childhood sweetheart he once had. Man, it's not like this, is it?

Du Wenhao also lowered his face: "What on earth do you think of me? I'm not interested in court battles. I just heard a story from you, and you insisted on dragging me into your boat. I think You're a little too strong."

Yu Ge'er probably didn't expect that this gentle and gentle man would be tough sometimes, and her expression changed from serious before to a little embarrassed, she said hesitantly: "Actually... I didn't mean to force you , I just want you to know that I am not the kind of woman who plays tricks and tricks. You don’t need to be with me, just think that I, Yu Ge’er, misread the wrong person. You have said it all. This is a story. Since it is a story, Then, if it’s true or not, just take it as a joke I, Yu Ge’er, told you in my spare time.” After speaking, Yu Ge’er lowered his head and walked past Du Wenhao.

Du Wenhao didn't catch up, and didn't say anything more, just watched Yu Ge'er's slender back disappearing lonely among the flowers in silence. Du Wenhao stayed in the back garden for a while on purpose, and then went out. Du Wenhao didn't see Yu Ge'er at the time, but according to other officials, Yu Ge'er left in a hurry by reasoning that he was unwell.

During the banquet, Du Wenhao was in a trance for some reason. It was the first time Du Wenhao saw Zhao Jieyu, and I heard that she was an extremely charming woman. When I saw it now, I didn't think so. From Du Wenhao's point of view, the woman beside the emperor If they were all high-minded women like Lin Jieyu, I'm afraid there would be no possibility of competing for favor. How could they win over an emperor who was not very interested in female sex without a little bit of flirtatiousness.

That Zhao Jieyu is wearing a crimson red long dress today, a golden belt with floral patterns, a jade bead tube necklace, a gold and silver silk coverall, lace inlaid with precious silver phoenix hairpins inserted obliquely in the concentric bun, a little powder and daisy, but still quite charming Touching, but the appearance is far from as stunning as the rumors, it can only be regarded as a bit of beauty.

But I came out for a while, met with everyone, took a glass of wine and toasted symbolically, and went in. There were people whispering and saying anything. Du Wenhao never dared to gossip about these gossip things. Hobbies, only focus on the food and drink that I like, after working hard, I am ready to get up and say goodbye.

"Master Du, are you leaving now?"

When Du Wenhao walked to the door, the breeze blew, as if he was a little drunk, he heard someone at the door saying hello to him, because it was getting late, Du Wenhao didn't see who it was, so he said yes.

"The emperor just wanted me to find you to give you an oral order, but luckily I caught up with you."

Du Wenhao heard that the emperor was looking for him, so he went to the light and took a good look at the other party. When he saw it, he burst out laughing. He saw Eunuch Ning standing under the eaves, with his hands in his sleeves, bowed, with a look on his face. Looking at himself wearily.

"Why are you so virtuous? Do you feel sick to your stomach again?" Du Wenhao said as he stepped forward and patted Eunuch Ning on the shoulder.

Eunuch Ning smiled wryly, and said: "Oh, how can a slave compare to you? The emperor knows that he loves you, and he seemed to be in a bad mood when he saw you just now. He said that you must be tired of governing the country, and you are allowed to go home to recuperate. After a few days, but the slave is also tired, who saw it again?"

Du Wenhao thought to himself, the emperor is really a careful person, even his own absent-mindedness can be seen, thinking that he is tired of thinking about the policy of governing the country, in fact, the policy of governing the country has already been drawn up, but he has never had the chance to hand it over.Since the emperor allowed himself to go back and rest for a few days, that's fine. If he doesn't walk in the palace for a few days, he won't worry about meeting Yu Ge'er, and neither will be embarrassed by each other. By the way, let's think about the policy of governing the country , don't expect the emperor to value yourself because of this, but don't be too ashamed.

Du Wenhao put his arms around Eunuch Ning's shoulder and said: "Look at what you said, everyone knows that Eunuch Ning is working hard, why don't I tell the emperor to let you go back and rest for a few days? Don't be a slave in front of me in the future, Are you awkward or not, really, fake or not."

Eunuch Ning chuckled, and quickly said: "Forget it, I only dare to make such a joke with you in private, and I wouldn't say a word if I was beaten to death in front of others, let's go, I will send you out, it is rare for the emperor to let you go!" If you rest at home for a few days, you will have a good rest."

The two walked towards the door.

"Don't trust people so easily, be careful that I'm talking all over the world." Du Wenhao jokingly said.

Eunuch Ning looked up at Du Wenhao, reached out his hand and nodded, and said in a low voice: "I know you won't say it, Yu Ge'er is right, you are a trustworthy person, otherwise I wouldn't I will talk casually in front of you."

Speaking of Yu Ge'er, Du Wenhao's inexplicable heart twitched, he managed to force a smile, and changed the subject, "You still need to rest if you're tired. Don't hold on. If you fall down, who will take care of you, Your Majesty?"

"Hehe, I love to hear that, but it's my fate."

Du Wenhao and Eunuch Ning walked out of the gate talking and laughing. Eunuch Ning saw Du Wenhao get on the sedan chair, then smiled and waved his hands and turned back.

The lantern at the entrance of Wuweitang was swaying gently in the night wind. The gate had already been closed, and there were faint lights flickering in the lobby. Standing outside the gate, Du Wenhao couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional. The kindness at home, this is his own home, thinking of this, Du Wenhao seemed to see the virtuous Pang Yuqin, the lively Xue Feier, and Lin Qingdai who only smiled at him gently, and the old master who was serving in the cold palace Chen Meiren's Lian'er.Unconsciously, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he walked to the door and knocked.

"Who?"

Du Wenhao recognized that it was Hantou's voice, so he said loudly, "It's me."

The door opened quickly, and Hantou, with his upper body bare and a sweat towel on his shoulders, walked to the door with a smile and said kindly: "Master, I recognized your voice as soon as I heard it, why did you come back?" gone?"

Du Wenhao said with a smile: "I can't get back my feelings yet?"

Hantou hurriedly moved away, made a gesture of greeting with both hands, bowed and said, "No, no, hehe, I thought you were busy in the palace. During dinner, Madam also said that she didn't know if you were in the palace. Well, please come in quickly, I will report to Madam."

Du Wenhao walked in, Han Tou closed the door, and then walked quickly towards the front yard.

"Silly, you are busy with your work, I will go by myself."

Han Tou turned around and said: "It just so happens that Madam's elder brother-in-law came over today, Madam is probably talking in the elder brother-in-law's room now."

"Why, the eldest brother-in-law is here, why don't people come into the palace and call me?" Du Wenhao said while walking.

Hantou followed behind with a smile and said: "Brother-in-law is ill, madam thinks the problem is not serious, she said that you are busy with errands in the palace, so you can't be distracted, let senior brother take a look, so we didn't call you."

Du Wenhao entered the front yard, and sure enough, he saw the door of a side room on the east side was open, and someone was talking.

Looking through the crack of the door, I saw Yan Miao standing beside the bed with his hands.Pang Yuqin was sitting in front of the bed and was comforting the person lying on the bed: "Brother-in-law, don't worry, after taking the medicine prescribed by Miaoshou, if there is no improvement, we will ask my husband to come back to see you. "

"Don't call, I'm back." Du Wenhao said standing at the door.

Pang Yuqin turned her head immediately when she heard the voice, and she was surprised and happy when she saw Du Wenhao standing at the door. She immediately got up and went forward: "Sir, why are you back? Did someone go into the palace and tell you? I don't need to bother you for the time being." Pang Yuqin saw that Du Wenhao was getting thinner again, and felt a pang of distress in her heart, but it was difficult to reveal because there were people around.

Du Wenhao took Pang Yuqin's hand, patted it lightly, and said: "No one called me, the emperor saw that I had been working hard these past few days, so he asked me to come back to recuperate for a few days, what's wrong with eldest brother-in-law?"

Du Wenhao walked to the bed.I saw a young man in his thirties lying on the bed, looking a little tired under the dim light, looking at himself with his eyes open.He said weakly: "Du...Master Du, the grass people really can't stand up to greet, so please don't be offended."

"Big brother-in-law, what did you say? Why did you call me master? The family members are not outside, so please call me by my name."

"No, no, you are a fifth-rank imperial doctor, older than the county magistrate, so the rules cannot be messed up."

"What's wrong with the rules, this is at home. Come on, don't be too polite, let me see what's wrong with you. What do you feel uncomfortable about?"

"A few days ago, we received a letter from our family, saying that grandma was ill, very ill, and your elder sister was not in good health, so I rushed here alone. I felt there was a big problem. I thought it was a cold and I was sore and weak. Because I was in a hurry, I found a doctor on the way and gave me medicine. Who wants to feel more unwell after taking the medicine? Not only did I have a fever , and started to have diarrhea, this journey almost killed me." After finishing speaking, the elder brother-in-law was already out of breath.

Du Wenhao asked Pang Yuqin: "Did you write the letter to your eldest brother-in-law?"

"No, it was written by my mother. I didn't think that my grandma... sent someone to send a letter asking the eldest sister to come back. Who would have thought that the eldest sister was pregnant, and the elder brother-in-law was distressed and worried that he would not be able to travel. Come here, who would have thought that he would fall ill."

Du Wenhao nodded, this is the first time he saw this elder brother-in-law, because when he married Pang Yuqin, her eldest sister had already married far away, so I didn't see her, but I heard that she married a businessman from a distant country named Li Jian, because Du Wenhao had a buddy in the dormitory with this name when he was in college, so Du Wenhao heard Pang's mother say it once, and he remembered it.

"Don't worry, brother-in-law, do you feel tired?"

Li Jian hummed.

"Did you bring the prescription prescribed by the doctor before?"

Yan Miao stepped forward and handed some prescriptions to Du Wenhao, saying: "Master Zu, take a look, these are the prescriptions."

Du Wenhao took it over, looked at it, and gave it back to Yan Miaoshou. Yan Miaoshou knew that it was fortunate that Du Wenhao came back in time, because he was similar to what these doctors thought, but he knew that as long as Du Wenhao handed these prescriptions to I explained that there was something wrong with the prescription, so I hurried out to ask Hantou not to decoct the medicine for the time being.

"Brother, can you tell me about the whole process of the onset, and what you ate and did before the onset?"

Li Jian nodded, then looked at Pang Yuqin suddenly, Du Wenhao turned his head and said to Pang Yuqin: "Go and make me some porridge, I'm thirsty after eating wine, what I want most in the palace is your porridge It's porridge."

Pang Yuqin smiled sweetly, nodded and went out.

Seeing that Pang Yuqin had left, Li Jian said slowly: "Since you and I are both men, I don't have to hide anything from Mrs. Du. My wife is pregnant, and because the relationship between the two is still good, I haven't accepted the second wife. But you know men..., ahem..."

"The eldest brother-in-law went on to say, I understand."

"I have been getting along well with Xiaoyu from the Liuchun Pavilion in the county town. Madam probably knew about it, but she didn't say anything. On that day, I stayed at Xiaoyu's place overnight. Who would have thought that in the middle of the night, someone from the family would suddenly come to look for her? It is said that Pang's mother is seriously ill, and Madam fainted in a moment of anxiety, I dare not stay here, so I want to go home overnight." Speaking of this, Li Jian was a little tired, so he stopped, and Du Wenhao got up from the table. Poured a glass of warm water, walked to the bed and helped Li Jian to drink it slowly.

After a while, Li Jian got better and then continued: "Who would have thought, it rained heavily that night, and I couldn't wait until dawn. Although Xiaoyu persuaded me that it would take two hours to return home from the county seat, I was worried that Mrs. , So I took my servants to ride back, the road was slippery due to rain, when I passed a small bridge, my horse stumbled, and I fell into the river. After running for more than ten miles, I felt that it was going to die. I happened to pass by a small town, so I went to see the doctor. The doctor said it was a false syndrome. After taking the medicine prescribed by the doctor, he didn't dare to neglect, and then set off. On the way, he fell ill It got worse, I was afraid of the cold and my limbs were sore, so I stayed in the dark and went to see a doctor again."

"What does the doctor think?"

"The doctor said it was laborious, and I added Zhimu, Digupi and Danxi Dabuyin pills to Siwu Decoction, but it didn't work."

"Brother-in-law has a pretty good memory, and even remembers what medicine he took." Du Wenhao said with a smile.

Li Jian sighed, and said: "After taking it for so long, even an old man may remember the medicine he took."

"Well, then you go on."

"After taking this medicine, I didn't get better. I got so sick that I couldn't even get out of bed. I had to stay in this small town for treatment, and I found a few doctors to see me. One of the doctors said that my disease is actually I don’t need to take any medicine. If a woman who is breastfeeding her child needs to drink a bowl of human milk, it will be cured immediately. I don’t even need a doctor, so I ask the accompanying servants to find it for me, and drink it that night. I didn't expect that I couldn't even eat anything the next day. I thought I was going to die of illness on the road, but I remembered that you are an imperial doctor, Mr. Du, so I asked my servants to hire a car, and I persisted here, asking for your help."

Du Wenhao couldn't help but sigh with emotion, it seems that this elder brother-in-law did not suffer less along the way.

Du Wenhao lifted his wrist to check his pulse, looked at his tongue, and said: "Brother-in-law's six pulses are all flooded and slow, if you press hard, the right hand is even worse, you should be soaked in dampness, don't worry too much, just take a few medicines and you will be fine." It can be relieved. You are tired from talking just now, so you should close your eyes and rest your mind and take a good rest."

Seeing what Du Wenhao said, Li Jian couldn't ask any more questions, so he closed his eyes and rested.

Du Wenhao quickly wrote the prescription, handed it to Yan Miao, and said: "Hurry up to grab the medicine, drink one dose first, and drink it again when you are ugly. If you find a rash on the patient's body, don't let him scratch it. After dawn, it should be fine."

When it was dark, the father-in-law came to the palace to deliver the emperor's oral order, telling Du Wenhao to enter the palace immediately.

Du Wenhao smiled wryly and shook his head, so he had no choice but to immediately enter the palace in a sedan chair and arrive at the Hall of Qinzheng.I learned from Eunuch Ning that the emperor is discussing politics inside, and it has been a long time.Du Wenhao sat in the apse and waited.

It wasn't until late at night that it dispersed.

Song Shenzong was still in high spirits, and he didn't look tired at all. When he saw Du Wenhao, he smiled and nodded.

Du Wenhao hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to salute: "My humble minister pays homage to the emperor."

Song Shenzong stopped: "How about what I told you?"

Unexpectedly, Song Shenzong called him here to ask about this matter. Du Wenhao hurriedly took out the stack of blog posts on medical ethics and state governance from his arms: "It's finished, I've thought hard about it, but I still don't know what to say. It made the emperor laugh."

"Really?" Song Shenzong didn't answer, "You follow me to the imperial study, I want to hear what you said about your incomprehensible policies." After saying that, he walked forward.

Song Shenzong discussed politics all day long, and listened to his layman's policies late at night, which really flattered Du Wenhao, and hurriedly followed him to the Hall of Qinzheng.

Song Shenzong sat down behind the dragon case, and Eunuch Ning personally brewed a cup of strong tea and brought it to the emperor.Du Wenhao handed over his article again, only then did Song Shenzong take it, put it on the dragon table, and read it while sipping tea.

Song Shenzong read it very carefully, almost reading it word by word, occasionally stopping to meditate, and annotating on it with a Chinese ink pen.This made Du Wenhao even more suspicious that his policy proposals all came from medical ethics, and he didn't know if they were reasonable. If they were unreasonable, wouldn't they be misleading the emperor.

Finally, Song Shenzong looked at it, put down the ink pen, raised the dragon head, and looked at Du Wenhao: "Hehe, Du Wenhao, your policy is very ingenious."

Ingenuity?The emperor only used this word to describe it, and didn't say whether it was good or bad. As long as he didn't say bad, it would have given Du Wenhao a sigh of relief. What's more, the ingenious comment that was considered a compliment made Du Wenhao even more confident.He bowed and said: "Your Majesty, I only understand Qi and Huang, so I can't help thinking about it in this policy. There must be many inadequacies. It is enough to make the Emperor smile."

"Hehe, sit down."

"Yes!" Du Wenhao thanked him with a bow, sat down on the chair next to him with his butt tilted, and looked at Song Shenzong.

Song Shenzong said: "I don't understand your governance strategy very clearly. There are too many words that I really don't understand. There are a few things I don't understand. Please explain to me."

Du Wenhao used a lot of modern vocabulary in the article. He couldn't think of the corresponding ancient vocabulary, and he was afraid of ambiguity caused by using it indiscriminately, so he simply used modern vocabulary. No wonder Song Shenzong couldn't understand it.He hurriedly bowed and agreed.

Song Shenzong picked up Du Wenhao's blog post and said: "You said at the beginning: "Zhuangzi" said: "The life of a person is the gathering of qi, and the gathering is life, and the dispersal is death." You compare the law to the human body. Essence, saying that there is no law is equivalent to a person without energy, a person will die if he has no energy, and a country will perish if there is no law. This sentence is very good, and I deeply believe it. Since I became the throne, I have promulgated many laws , in your opinion, what method is missing?"

Du Wenhao said: "The essence of a person permeates the whole body, and the laws of the country should also involve all aspects. From the "Constitution" that stipulates the national system, to the "Organization Law" that stipulates the establishment and functions of state institutions, and the "Criminal Law" that punishes crimes, The "Civil Law" that regulates civil relations, the "Commercial Law" that regulates commercial relations, and how to punish crimes, how to judge civil and commercial disputes, the procedural law, and the administrative law that regulates state affairs for officials of state administrative organs, etc. "

Song Shenzong's eyes widened: "So much?"

"This is just a general statement. They are all departmental laws, and each departmental law can be subdivided into many."

"Oh? How to divide?"

"There are many, such as administrative law, which can be subdivided into the "Tax Law" on how to collect taxes, the "Industrial and Commercial Administration Law" on how to open and manage merchants, the "Customs Entry and Exit Management Law" on border entry and exit, and the import and export of goods. Export management law, municipal management law of urban construction, public health management law, food hygiene management law, and laws on the management of national natural resources, such as "Forest Law", "Grassland Law", etc., and then civil law and commercial law For example, it can be divided into many sub-categories, such as the "Contract Law" that regulates sales, the "Tort Act" that regulates infringement, the "Intellectual Property Law" that regulates intellectual property rights, the "Marriage Law" that regulates marriage, and the "Inheritance Law" that regulates inheritance. Law, "Adoption Law" that regulates adoption, etc., in commercial law, "Anti-Unfair Competition Law" that regulates unfair competition among businessmen, "Anti-Monopoly Law"..."

Song Shenzong's head grew dizzy: "Okay, okay, what are you going to do with so many methods?"

"Each method has its function, just like a human being. Human nails, hair, eyebrows, tears, sweat, etc. all have their own functions."

"Do you know how to formulate these laws?"

"I know roughly, but it's all the result of my own work behind closed doors. I haven't done any investigation. If I really want to formulate these laws, I don't have to do some research to see what laws are actually needed. According to the principle of first big and then small, first major and then second. First, make legislation based on the principle of putting the easy first and then the difficult."

Song Shenzong stared at him, as if he just knew him now: "If you are not a god of medicine, I really want you to go to the Compilation Institute to edit the legal code."

Du Wenhao said with a smile: "The humble minister only listens to the emperor's orders."

"Well, let me ask you next. You compare agricultural production to the stomach and intestines. The stomach is responsible for storing and decomposing water and grains. It is the source of human survival. This analogy is very appropriate. What you wrote above is, "Su Wen. Nei Tiao Lun" said : 'If the stomach is not in harmony, you will be restless'. As far as people are concerned, the loss of stomach harmony will not only affect the circulation of the six internal organs, but also affect the ups and downs of the whole body's qi movement, resulting in various diseases. Analogy to the governance of the country, agriculture is the basis , is the foundation of the country, if there are problems in agriculture, there will be problems in the country. This argument is also very interesting and vivid.”

Du Wenhao bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment."

Song Shenzong said: "You talked about how to strengthen agricultural production in general terms. You only talked about some principles of intensive cultivation and adapting measures to local conditions. Do you have any specific ideas?"
