Song Yi

Chapter 371
Du Wenhao asked: "How are you preparing for the consultation on intractable diseases?"

Liao Guibing hurriedly said: "Doctors from all over the country and eight li have come, and everyone is looking forward to you. There is also Mrs. Wen and the female doctor who have collected some difficult and miscellaneous diseases that they usually encounter. Everyone is ready. Just waiting for you."

"Alright then, go back to Jingjiang Mansion tomorrow."

Liao Guibing laughed and said, "My lord's medical skills are as good as gods, especially the kind of medicine that can make you fall asleep after drinking it, and you don't know if you have an open stomach. What about medicine. In the past few days, I have brought enough money and gathered in the city, waiting for your lecture."

Du Wenhao glanced at Master Shen, saw that he was as expressionless as a wooden chicken, so he smiled wryly and said to Liao Guibing: "This journey is full of large-scale lectures, very tiring, I want to take a rest , so I don’t give lectures, just consult with doctors about difficult and miscellaneous diseases, select forty people from various medical centers and pharmacies in the city..., ah no, twenty people..., um, this, let’s just ten people, choose ten people For those with excellent medical skills and noble medical ethics, small-scale teaching is enough. Agents and distributors of anesthetics and disinfectants will be determined from it.””

Du Wenhao changed his words again and again to narrow down the number of those who taught medicine. Seeing that Master Shen remained expressionless until he said ten, Master Shen stroked his beard and smiled at him, agreeing that this number is more appropriate, since it has reached the goal of teaching medical skills The purpose of this will not let the court admonisher get hold of it.

Although Du Wenhao will lose a lot of income by reducing the scale of training in such a large scale, but in this way, safety is not conspicuous, and safety is a blessing. If it is not safe, what is the use of more money?

Liao Guibing was puzzled by Du Wenhao's change of mind, but Du Wenhao's reason was very good. He said that he was too tired and wanted to take a rest. Naturally, it was difficult for Liao Guibing to persuade him, so he hurriedly said some hard words with a smile.

----------
Dr. Xie stood in the drizzle. Before, he was still wearing heavy shackles, handcuffs and shackles, squatting in a dark cell. Now he has regained his freedom. It really seems like a lifetime ago.

He is from the county town of Leping County. Doctors Li and Han used to be doctors in the East Village and West Village outside the city.

Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Wang almost killed him, and he even disdained to go with them. Moreover, the old couple were country gentlemen from the outskirts of the city. They walked together for a certain distance, but Dr. Xie deliberately delayed him, standing on the side of the road as if wanting to take a rest Walk.

The sedan chair of Mrs. Wang's family was parked by the roadside, but Mrs. Wang didn't get on the sedan chair. He looked at Dr. Xie's hunched body, and felt really sorry. It was true that he begged others to save his daughter and promised to treat her It's not good and I don't pursue it. In the end, I didn't tell my daughter the real situation, and I used warm and dry medicine on my own to aggravate her daughter's condition. In all fairness, I really can't blame Dr. Xie for going over to give a gift. But he was dragged into the sedan chair by the old woman, and left in a blink of an eye.

Dr. Xie watched their sedan chair go away and sighed. He didn't intend to ask anyone to compensate for the loss. There was no such compensation system for wrongful cases in ancient times, and he didn't have such thoughts in his heart. Now the officials are lucky to be able to rehabilitate themselves.

No one knew that he was acquitted, so his family members, relatives and friends did not come, and he began to walk slowly towards the county seat.

Seeing that it was getting dark again, and it was raining lightly, the distance to the county town was not close. When we got home, it should be almost midnight.And it's raining, I'm afraid I'll be drowned by then.

But Dr. Xie was in a good mood, and he didn't worry about these things. He just thought that he was really lucky. Can the old bones come out alive?

While sighing, I heard someone shouting from behind: "Wait! Doctor Xie!"

Dr. Xie stopped, turned around to look, but it was a guard, leading a horse, with a coir raincoat on the saddle.

The guard clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Xie, our master said that the official judged your case wrongly. I'm very sorry. This horse is considered your compensation from the official. It's dark, so be careful on the road."

Dr. Xie hurriedly shook his hands: "No, no! This can't be done. The old man is already very grateful for bringing him back to justice. How dare he want the old man's horse."

The guard actually didn't understand Du Wenhao's order. He didn't know why the old man gave him a horse and said some words of apology. No official would ever speak to ordinary people like this.He didn't understand very much, so he frowned and said, "You just take what the old man told you. There are so many words! Let's go!" Say it, turn your head and leave.

Dr. Xie has long been used to the attitude of officials and family members, and he doesn't think there is anything rude about this guard. He doesn't understand why Mr. Ti Xing would do this, so he froze on the spot for a long time. After recollecting it, he took a few steps forward, cupped his hands towards the sky, and shouted loudly: "Thank you...! Thank you for the kindness of rehabilitating the old man, and thank you for the gift of the horse! The villain..., the villain can't repay, I can only pray to God every day, and ask God to bless and bless the old man who will be punished for a long life..."

Dr. Xie was in a turbulent mood, he was a little indiscriminate, and said this sentence casually, and suddenly remembered that this should be a word of congratulations to the emperor, so it is too inappropriate to say it.He hurriedly covered his mouth and looked around. Fortunately, there was no one around in the drizzle.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Dr. Xie put his coir raincoat on his body, grabbed the saddle, and tried several times before he climbed onto the horse's back. His feet pinched the horse's belly, and the horse tick-tocked and walked forward.

With a horse, the speed is much faster, and he returned to the county as soon as he started shifting.

Braving the rain and returning to the door of the house, after patting on the door for a long time, I heard a trembling voice inside asking, "Who is it?"

It was an old female voice, and it sounded like his wife. Dr. Xie replied, "It's me! I'm back!"

"Ah! Master? Is it you, Master?"

"Yeah, open the door! I'm getting wet!"

Immediately there was the sound of crackling and treading water in the yard, and then the door opened with a creak, and an old woman stood behind the door, squinting her eyes and watching through the dim light in the room.

Dr. Xie was wearing a bamboo hat and coir raincoat, and was leading a steed behind him. He couldn't see his face clearly, and he couldn't be his wife from this posture. He hurriedly closed the courtyard door halfway, and asked cautiously. : "You? Who are you?"

Dr. Xie took off the bamboo hat on his head, and stepped forward: "It's me!"

Now, his face was exposed to the light projected from the room, the old woman finally saw it clearly, and tremblingly said: "Ah? Master! It's really you!"

The old woman staggered a few steps, supported Dr. Xie's arm, and began to cry.

After crying for a while, the old woman suddenly came to her senses and pushed Dr. Xie's hand away: "You, how did you get out? You..., haven't you been locked up in a prison? You, you are wearing a prison uniform Right? Ah? Did you sneak out? Where did this horse come from? Don’t steal it, oh, go to the Yamen and surrender, you won’t be able to hide for a few days like this! Hurry! Hurry up!”

The old woman is impatient. Seeing Dr. Xie wearing a prison uniform, she thought he had escaped from prison secretly.He took his wife's hand and walked out.

Dr. Xie smiled, and shook off her hand: "Don't worry! Old man, I was released without any crime! We have met a nobleman! This horse, this coir raincoat and bamboo hat are all given to me by him. of!"

"What did you say? My lord?"

"It's the prisoner from the capital!"

"Ah? What's going on?"

Dr. Xie pushed his wife away, pretending to be angry, and said, "Hey! Didn't you see that I'm all wet? Are you blocking me at the door, trying to get drenched?"

The old woman hurriedly helped Dr. Xie to go inside.Dr. Xie tied the horse to the wood shed post in the yard, entered the house, and briefly told the story.

The old woman was so excited that her old tears kept flowing, and she clasped her hands together and bowed to the sky: "Oh, thank you God! Thank you God!"

Dr. Xie said angrily: "Why are you thanking God, you should thank Mr. Du, the criminal officer!"

"That's right!" The old woman slapped her wrinkled old face lightly: "I'm so happy!"

Dr. Xie said with emotion: "Yeah, when have you seen such a good official? A few more such good officials, we ordinary people will live a better life! —— Ah Choo!"

Dr. Xie shook his hands and feet and sneezed.The old woman hurriedly said: "Oh my lord, you caught a cold on the way, hurry up! Hurry up and go into the house to change your clothes. I'll make ginger soup for you!"

The old woman pushed Dr. Xie into the room, and Dr. Xie asked, "Where are the children?"

"Going back to my mother's house, I can't keep my in-laws' land!"

"What's going on?" Dr. Xie said.

"Hey! It's not God damn it.... There is no harvest in the field, and there is no way to live. They said they want to sell the land, but, God damn it... this thief won't allow others to buy it. The children went to discuss what to do."

"Come live with us!"

The old woman clicked her tongue and said, "Master, look at what you said! I have a big family, and I came to live with my aunt, do you want this face?"

"That's true!—Ah Choo!" Dr. Xie sneezed again.

"Ouch, master, change your clothes quickly, it's cold, be careful of catching a cold!"

These words really made the old woman's crow's mouth right. Even though Dr. Xie drank ginger soup, he still developed aversion to cold and high fever in the middle of the night, followed by vomiting and diarrhea.The old woman was so panicked that she cried and cried, not knowing what to do.

Dr. Xie was wrapped in a quilt and shivering, "I..., I'm afraid I have febrile disease, old woman, hurry up, go and help me..., help me find a doctor!"

The old woman agreed, and she wanted to run outside. After running a few steps, she heard lightning, thunder, and rainstorm outside, and she backed up again: "It's midnight, and it's raining outside again. I..., I..., you Isn't it a doctor, there is medicine at home, ready-made. Or, you can write a prescription, and I will make it for you!"

Dr. Xie's lips trembled, and he couldn't speak smoothly: "Nonsense! You..., you don't know..., doctors are not autonomous!"

"It's raining so hard outside now, and the doctor won't come out! Oh, you can make a prescription for yourself. It's not like you haven't given it before! Hurry up!"

At this time, a flash of lightning flashed across the room, illuminating the room brightly, and then a series of rumbling thunder rolled over, scaring the old woman into screaming and almost jumping onto the bed.

Dr. Xie saw his wife was so frightened, he shook his head helplessly, and said, "Forget it, let's use kudzu root soup!"

When the compatibility was mentioned, the old woman usually helped her husband treat diseases and knew some medical skills, so she quickly agreed, and went to the pharmacy to prepare medicines.

After being busy for a while, I finally boiled the medicine and sent it to Dr. Xie to take it.

When it was dawn, Dr. Xie suddenly started to tremble, and then his whole body was sweating profusely. It lasted for half an hour, the fever subsided, but he became cold, like a straight corpse.The old woman was so frightened that she burst into tears and ran to the next door to call her neighbor.

When the neighbors heard that Dr. Xie was acquitted by the Yamen, they were very happy for him, but when they heard that Dr. Xie was seriously ill, they became anxious again. Go to the doctor.

Passing by the government yamen, I saw crowds of people gathered, and when they saw them coming, they all gave way, and someone they knew said hello, "Oh, isn't this Xie's sister-in-law, who is that carried on the door."

The old woman said anxiously: "It's our master. Yesterday, the great master who brought the sentence was merciful, retried our master's case, and acquitted him. But last night, he got a febrile disease from the rain and went to see a doctor. .”

The man exclaimed a few times, pointed into the yamen and said: "It seems that Dr. Xie is seriously ill, and it may not be useful to find someone else, and it will delay his illness. Besides, ten famous doctors in the whole city are all in the yamen right now. Well, who are you looking for?"

"Ah?" The old woman was stunned, "Well, what should we do?"

"Old sister-in-law, you are really serious. Right now, there is a living Bodhisattva inside, who is giving consultations on difficult diseases. Why do you look far away?"

The old woman had no idea, when she heard this, she immediately asked the neighbors to carry Dr. Xie straight to the yamen, like a drowning person grabbing a life-saving straw.

Zaoli at the door sternly said: "What are you doing? You ran into the yamen, you don't want to live anymore!"

The old woman knelt down: "My husband is Dr. Xie who was acquitted yesterday by the Priest. He is sick and dying. Please help the Priest."

Zaoli, who was guarding the door, knew Dr. Xie, and saw Dr. Xie lying on the door panel. He didn't know who he was, so he knew that he was serious, so he hurried in to report.

Du Wenhao was explaining the knowledge of aseptic technique and the use of anesthetics to the ten doctors. Hearing this, he immediately ordered people to be carried in.

After Dr. Xie was carried in, he was placed on the ground.The old woman cried, knelt down and kowtowed, begging Du Wenhao to save her husband's life.

Du Wenhao asked about the process and medication, and after checking his pulse and tongue, he waved her to stand aside and called ten famous doctors.Ask them what to do.

An old doctor shook his head and sighed: "Zhanhan Shijue, looking at this, I'm afraid he has lost his genitals!"
