Song Yi

Chapter 329
Du Wenhao smiled, handed the small bag to Li Pu, and said: "This is a good thing, let people send it back to the capital as soon as possible, it can cure Lord Sima and the emperor's illness, and then I will write down the method of consumption and put it in the small bag , we must hurry up and do this.”

Li Pu pointed to the two foreign soldiers and said, "Then what about these two people?"

Du Wenhao smiled and said, "That's about you, General Li Pu."

It was inconvenient for Li Pu to say more in front of the two foreign troops, so he asked them to take them away now, and then said: "My lord, the general is really reluctant to let you go."

Du Wenhao didn't want to mention this matter again, so he changed the subject and said, "By the way, did the bustard say anything when you sent Ke Yao back?"

Li Pu pondered for a moment, looked around and saw no one was there, lifted his robe and knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "Master Du, the last defeated general, poor and destitute, and there is no hope of making a comeback in this life. It is your support that made us what we are today. Mr. Wen Gong and Wu Lue were invincible and invincible. They defeated the tens of thousands of Tubo troops with less victories and more, but they suffered such a tragic scene. The last general waited for his brothers and husband to go through life and death. There is really nothing to be attached to in the official career, a dozen brothers who have been through life and death have discussed it, and they are still following the husband freely and comfortably, so they are willing to swear to follow him around, before the saddle, please take him in!"

Du Wenhao was stunned for a moment, and stretched out his hand to help Li Pu: "General Li has a bright future, why should he follow me, a quack doctor, to travel around the world?"

"It's my honor to wait! I'm not the flowers and plants growing in the flower garden that can't bear the wind and rain, please allow me to follow the adults around!"

After all, Du Wenhao was a little moved. Although it didn't take long for Li Pu to think about it, the two of them have always been regarded as heroes and cherish heroes. Now that they really want to leave this good partner and go alone, to be honest, they are really reluctant.

Du Wenhao patted Li Pu's shoulder forcefully, and said, "Thank you! I've been dismissed from office now, so don't call me Sir anymore, just call me by my first name."

"Don't dare!" Li Pu laughed twice, clasped his fists together and said, "Mr. is my leading brother, so let's call him Brother Du."

Du Wenhao laughed loudly: "Okay! Brother Longtou, hahaha...!"

……

Before dawn the next day, Li Pu picked up Ke Yao from Leyao Courtyard. Du Wenhao and the others were waiting at the foot of the mountain, so Li Pu rode a fast horse and took Ke Yao to the foot of the mountain to meet Du Wenhao and the others.

It seems that Ke Yao didn't sleep well all night, and looked very haggard.

Du Wenhao and Lin Qingdai brought more than [-] entourages and monkeys to see Li Pu and Ke Yao coming, and the group began to enter the mountain.

After walking for about an hour, we came to a fork.Ke Yao said to Du Wenhao: "My lord, there is a shortcut through the path on the left."

Everyone listened to Ke Yao's words, and after walking for a short time, they saw a river, and the Kejia Bridge could be seen not far away.

Seeing Ke Yao's gloomy expression, Du Wenhao gradually slowed down his steps, Du Wenhao said, "Do you feel like you don't want to go in?"

Ke Yao nodded.

Du Wenhao: "There is always something to face, no matter what you are going to face, remember, you still have all of us."

Ke Yao looked at Du Wenhao gratefully, but did not speak.

A group of people crossed the bridge and came to the gate. Ke Yao walked to a stone lion beside the gate, put his hand into the stone lion's mouth, and the gate opened slowly.

After entering the gate, the gate automatically closed again.

Ke Yao looked around, but found no one, and then said to Du Wenhao, "Sir, are you going directly to the other courtyard behind the mountain?"

Du Wenhao: "You decide, we will follow you."

Ke Yao walked through a promenade with ease, passed through an arch, crossed a stream, and came to a yard with the door ajar. Ke Yao said, "This is where my parents live. I want to go in and have a look. .”

Du Wenhao didn't speak, and followed Ke Yao into the door, only to see a relatively tall white wall inside the door, painted very cleanly, with the words "Huaju Yashe" on the door, obviously an old thing left over from the past.It doesn't look commensurate with other things in the courtyard, Du Wenhao thought, the words "Huaju Yashe" sound very nice. On the other hand, a plaque "Zhai Mo" was hung, and the characters were all well written, and they were full of everyone's demeanor.

"On the left is my mother's napping place, on the right is my father's study, and in the middle is their resting place."

Lin Qingdai couldn't help but said: "It's such an elegant place, you can tell that your father is a refined person just by looking at it."

Ke Yao smiled slightly, walked to a room in the middle, pushed the door open, and saw that the room was already covered with dust, Ke Yao's mouth twitched violently, looked back at Du Wenhao, Du Wenhao understood, and stopped. , Waiting for Ke Yao to go in, and then closed the door for her, a burst of sobs came from the room soon.

Du Wenhao signaled everyone to wait aside, and Lin Qingdai and himself sat under an osmanthus tree in the courtyard to enjoy the shade.

"Wen Hao, I feel so pitiful when I see Ke Yao." Lin Qingdai sighed softly and whispered.

Du Wenhao joked: "It's so pitiful, then I will redeem her and follow us."

But Lin Qingdai took it seriously, and said excitedly: "Really, good, she is so smart and beautiful, and also knowledgeable about etiquette, if you want to accept her as your fifth wife, that would be great."

Du Wenhao was overjoyed, and lightly slapped Lin Qingdai's hand, and said, "You're serious, aren't you jealous?"

Lin Qingdai whispered: "Let me tell you, Qin'er is virtuous, Fei'er is lively, and pitiful. You just don't have a smart woman like Ke Yao by your side."

"Okay, stop talking. I know you're digging a hole for me. I don't know you yet. Hmph, you're already very smart."

Lin Qingdai giggled, and was about to speak when the door opened, and Ke Yao came out, her eyes and little nose were red, and she seemed to have cried sadly.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Du wasted everyone's time, let's move on."

Du Wenhao comforted in a low voice: "Don't think too much, do you want to go to your room to have a look?"

Ke Yao looked at Du Wenhao pitifully, and said, "Is time allowed, can I go?"

Lin Qingdai: "Go and have a look."

Ke Yao bit his lips lightly, and said calmly, "I'm lying on my parents' bed, and I can still smell the orchid fragrance on my mother's body."

After hearing this, Lin Qingdai turned her nose away with a sore nose.

After coming out of the arch, walking through two long corridors towards the east, I saw a small courtyard, but the door was locked.

Ke Yao said to Li Pu: "Please trouble General Li to have someone cut off the door lock."

Li Pu drew out the sword by himself, the sword was unlocked, the door opened, Ke Yao walked in, frowned slightly, and quickly retreated, Du Wenhao said: "What's the matter?"

"No, no, I saw blood on the door, it must belong to my sister, I can't go."

Du Wenhao probed in and took a look, and sure enough, he saw a blood splatter on the door inside, which was shocking to watch.

"Okay, then we won't go."

"I'll go to the second uncle's yard to have a look, and then we'll go to the graves of my parents and younger siblings."

Du Wenhao didn't expect that the courtyard of Ke Yao's second uncle was bigger and more magnificent than the courtyard of Ke Ming, Ke Yao's parents.

Ke Yao went straight to the door of a room, but the door was still locked. This time, Li Pu slashed down with his sword without Ke Yao's words. down.

"Master Du, please come in."

Du Wenhao went in and walked over to Ke Yao to have a look. There was a piece of paper on the table, which was already covered with dust. Ke Yao picked up the paper and wrote on it: God has eyes, and I, Ke Jue, will go.

"Ke Jue is your second uncle?" Du Wenhao asked.

Ke Yao nodded: "Yes." As he spoke, he threw the paper on the table, and the paper was blown by the wind and turned over. Du Wenhao saw that there were words on the back of the paper, so he picked it up and read, and saw that it read: Yao Son, don't blame your second uncle, it's your father who made the decision. If one day, you see these things I wrote to you, you will know that second uncle is also ashamed. Leave the house to you, forget about everyone in our Ke family, we buried your parents and siblings, according to your parents' wishes, behind your house, so that you can pay homage.

Du Wenhao handed the paper to Ke Yao. After reading it, Ke Yao trembled and said: "You are lying, you are lying, you sold me, how can I come back to pay homage to my parents? I hate you, Ke Jue...!"

Du Wenhao said softly: "Ke Yao, don't cry, you are sick, don't be too sad, now things are clear, do you still need to go to your other hospital?"

Ke Yao sobbed: "No... I won't go, Mr. Du, Ke Yao wants to ask you one thing."

"You said."

"Sell this house for me, and then redeem me."

"Okay, don't cry now. I see that people in Yazhou may not be able to buy this house. Besides, I saw that the antiques in the room are real. Are you willing to pay for these things that are priceless?"

Ke Yao: "There are no people left, so what are you doing with these things?"

Du Wenhao: "Actually, if you sell one of the calligraphy and paintings, you can get out of Le Yao Yuan. There is no need to sell all your shelters, what do you think?"

Ke Yao shook his head in a panic: "No, no, I don't live here, it scares me, I don't want to live here."

Lin Qingdai walked over and said, "Since Ke Yao doesn't want to live here, then don't force her. This place is indeed a sad place, but I don't think it's necessary to sell this house, just stay here. Courtyard Can the grain in the store be bought for the soldiers in the army?"

Ke Yao: "Everything is up to Master Du and Sister Lin."

Lin Qingdai took Ke Yao's hand and said, "Then let's go, find a painting and sell it to redeem yourself. As for this house, I don't think ordinary people can get in. There are traps everywhere, so you can buy it." It doesn't matter if it's closed, if one day you want to come back, you can come back to see your parents at any time."

In the next few days, the Ke family’s food was bought to the government office at a fair price according to Ke Yao’s wishes, and used to help the victims. Although the old bustard was very reluctant to part with Ke Yao, Li Pu also sent the money at the price he asked, and he went back on his word. After offending Li Pu, life should not be messed up, so he had to bear the pain and let Ke Yao go.

Ke Yao was alone, very desolate, and when Du Wenhao asked her what her plans were, she didn't know either.

Feeling compassionate, Li Pu suggested to Du Wenhao that it would be better to take her along and call her to help her find a good family and a good home, than to be alone.Before Du Wenhao agreed, Lin Qingdai and the others agreed first, and all the girls felt sorry for the poor girl and stared at Du Wenhao eagerly.Of course Du Wenhao couldn't refuse, so he nodded and agreed.

----------

Finally, when the day of departure came, people from all over the world came to see him off.

They also knew that Du Wenhao was dismissed because he had no military power to lead the army. In the final analysis, he suffered for saving the people. They were very moved. Moreover, Du Wenhao helped restore production, relieve victims, and prevent epidemics during this period of time. , It can be said that they have worked hard and built a three-dimensional agricultural demonstration field, and taught how to recycle biogas.The farmers have benefited a lot and are grateful, so they all come to see them off.

Originally, Du Wenhao was extremely disheartened, and he just wanted to sleep in the cart for a few days and nights, but he saw Su Shi and Han Jiang bringing a crowd of gentry and common people to see him off. Several carts were loaded with all kinds of specialties and wild game sent by gentry and merchants from all over the country.Du Wenhao's gloomy mood was swept away, thinking that he didn't do it for nothing, even though he was dismissed because of this, he didn't regret it, saving the people and countless lives, this is the greatest reward.

…………

After traveling for more than ten miles, Du Wenhao was still calm in the excitement just now.

Pang Yuqin and the girls were very happy to see that he was in a better mood.Xue Fei'er said: "Brother, where are we going first? You didn't tell me when I asked you earlier, you just said south, where is it?"

Du Wenhao raised the curtain of the car, looked at the green mountains and green waters, passed by the car slowly, sighed softly, and said: "Where the heart is, it is the body!"

"What?" Xue Feier's eyes widened.

Lin Qingdai said: "What Wen Hao means is that there is no goal. Let's go all the way for fun and go wherever we want, right?"

Du Wenhao nodded, then shook his head again: "Yes, but not all. The emperor asked me to make medical rounds, without specifying the specific location, so we can go wherever we want. However, this round of medical rounds is after all to redeem the exile. , so, first go to the southwestern and southern exile camps to inspect the doctors, and then turn to the north. The general direction is like this."

Lian'er asked: "Master, how long are we going to make rounds outside?"

"What? Are you scared?"

"No, wherever the master goes, Lian'er will go wherever the master goes, and you are not afraid of mountains of swords and seas of fire!"

Du Wenhao stretched out his hand and pinched her tender face: "Your mouth is so sweet, well, just go through fire and water with the master."

Lian'er shyly glanced at Ke Yao, who was quietly curled up beside him, and said in a low voice, "Master, there is someone else..."

Du Wenhao hurriedly withdrew his hand and smiled sarcastically.

Pang Yuqin said: "The husband said that the emperor and the empress dowager want the husband to stay outside for at least a year and a half, and go back when the weather calms down. So, this time must be indispensable."

Xue Fei'er giggled and said: "One year is too short, it's hard for us to come out together as a family, we have to have fun, and we have to go shopping for three or five years before going back."

Lin Qingdai said: "According to what I said, let's not go back to the capital. You don't dare to show your atmosphere under the feet of the emperor. There are as many princes and generals as a cow's hair. Every official is older than you. You have to bow and bow when you see everyone. Companion to the king is like a companion." Tiger, that day the emperor was unhappy and his head was not stable. Haven’t we had enough of this day? It’s better to float in the rivers and lakes, be free, and visit the mountains and rivers while seeing a doctor. This is what Wen Hao said, “where the heart goes.” , 'meaning 'everywhere'. Right?"

Du Wenhao smiled and nodded: "Yeah, that kind of life is really enough, it's better to be free, let's be together as a family, enjoy life, and live longer wherever life is easy, and it doesn't matter .how wonderful.”

The girls clapped their hands and smiled in agreement.

Only Ke Yao remained silent, like a drop of water.

Sometimes people will have some illusions. In a specific environment and time, people will always understand something benevolently or maliciously, and then act according to their own illusions, thinking that this must be correct. In my eyes, you have changed so abruptly that everyone thinks you are crazy.

Ke Yao is like this. He has been careful with everyone along the way, and he is also respectful to Du Wenhao and his four wives. rush to do it.

On this day, everyone came to a small town in Qingjiang, which belongs to the boundary of Jiazhou. It didn't rain, and the weather was too hot, so after Li Pu asked Du Wenhao for instructions, the team planned to stay at this place for two days to rest and prepare some dry food for the road before leaving. Since there were nearly 30 people in the group, Du Wenhao let Li Pu rented a spacious farmyard for two days, and everyone enjoyed the cool in a tea shed by the side of the road.

"Brother Hao, can you lend me two of your medical books?" Ke Yao went to Du Wenhao and sat down.

Du Wenhao smiled and said, "Why are you suddenly interested in medicine?"

"I won't tell you, this is my little secret."

Sitting at the next table, Qian Bu received, and asked with concern: "Are you feeling uncomfortable, tell me, and I'll show you."

Ke Yao turned his head: "I'm fine."

Du Wenhao pointed to the drowsy Pang Yuqin opposite, and said, "Your elder sister Qin is very obsessed with medical skills, but she doesn't seem to be interested in it recently."

Pang Yuqin opened her eyes and glanced at him with complicated eyes.

None of this escaped Ke Yao's eyes, and he whispered: "Sister Pang is tired, she has worked hard these days."

Pang Yuqin's eyes softened, and she slowly closed her eyes and continued to doze off.

At this time, Li Pu, who was standing in front of him, galloped back: "Brother Du, it's getting dark. There is a family named Cheng in front of them. They happen to have an idle yard. I looked at it. Although it is a bit dilapidated, clean it up." There is no problem at all for staying just one night.”

Lin Qingdai said: "That's good. It's just that there is no need to be so particular about the short stay. Later, we can clean up with a few maids."

Everyone packed up their things and followed Li Pu and walked a short distance. At the foot of a mountain, we saw an old man waiting at the door with a cane.

Du Wenhao stepped forward to thank him, the old man saw that he was an easy-going person, and said with a smile: "You came at the right time, we built a new yard next to it, and we just moved there a few days ago, it is possible to live there , but a bit old."

Ke Yao looked at the old man, hesitated for a moment, and asked in a low voice: "Old man, are you feeling unwell?"

The old man: "How do you tell, I'm probably tired from moving these few days, and I'm really not feeling well."

Ke Yao put the salute in his hand on the ground: "Let my brother show you, he is an imperial doctor!"

Du Wenhao was dumbfounded by Ke Yao. Ke Yao became fascinated by medical skills much faster than Pang Yuqin at the beginning. He hadn't learned anything yet, so he became interested. But since he had already said it, Du Wenhao had no choice but to Following her will.

Hearing this, the old man hurriedly invited Du Wenhao to his new home, sat in the main room and asked his family to serve tea to Du Wenhao and Ke Yao. Du Wenhao, as if he was afraid that he might miss the details in the blink of an eye.

While giving the old man his pulse, Du Wenhao asked, "What do you call the old man?"

"My surname is Cheng, you can call me Cheng old man."

"What's not feeling well recently?" Du Wenhao asked while observing the old man's face, and found that his face was indeed a little pale.

"I didn't feel particularly uncomfortable, but when I went to the latrine recently...the stolen goods were of the wrong color." The old man probably didn't know how to say shit to Du Wenhao, so he thought for a long time, and came up with the word stolen goods.

"What color is it?" Du Wenhao understood quite well.

"What is stolen goods?" No one thought, but Ke Yao asked beside him.

Du Wenhao replied: "Shit."

Ke Yao blushed pretty, said "oh," and stopped talking.

"Black," said the old man.

Du Wenhao became alert, and asked again: "Besides the black defecation, do you feel flustered, sweating or dizzy?"

The old man thought for a while, shook his head, and an old woman came in, the old man's wife, and said, "You forgot, when you were cutting pigweed in the field at noon the day before yesterday, didn't you say you were dizzy and flustered?"

The old man said: "What do you know, the sun is so big, everyone will feel flustered and dizzy."

The old woman murmured, "That's what Du Langzhong asked, but you don't remember it yourself."

The old man's face darkened, and he said, "Hurry up and cook, it's really annoying."

Du Wenhao smiled, and said to the old man, "You still go out to work in such a hot day."

The old man whispered, "Look at your daughter-in-law's face and eat."

Du Wenhao laughed, and the old man also laughed. Du Wenhao said: "Old man, let me check your tongue and feel your pulse."
