Descendants of Pangu in the Great Desolation

Chapter 14
The hot summer makes people feel lazy to work and enjoy the cool under the shade of the trees. The cicadas hidden in the trees are screaming, which makes people feel more depressed.There were bursts of crying in Yun Chaoping's mansion, which made the already sweltering weather even more irritable.

"Hai'er, open your eyes, don't fall asleep again." The middle-aged beautiful woman held the weak hand of the child on the bed, crying bitterly.Beside the woman stood a middle-aged man comforting the crying woman, "Ma'am, Hai'er will wake up, don't cry and break your body." But his eyes were also red, with a sad expression on his face . "No, my Hai'er, my..." The woman took the child by the hand and fainted beside the bed.While picking up the woman, the man shouted to the door: "Ma'am, Ma'am, come quickly, go to Doctor Zhang."

Doctor Zhang left the bed, came to the table to write the prescription, and said while writing: "My lord, the princess just fainted due to excessive sadness and weakness, and she will wake up soon. I will write a prescription for repairing the body." , take care of the concubine's body." Prince Ping was relieved to hear the imperial doctor's words, but he was still frowning when he thought of his son. "Doctor Zhang, is there really no cure for Aiko?"

Doctor Zhang said to Prince Ping with shame on his face: "Your Majesty, forgive me for speaking bluntly, the son is inherently deficient, and he is infected with acne and causes continuous high fever to cause lethargy. If the fever cannot be subsided, life is in jeopardy." Doctor Zhang said that Prince Ping was full of sadness, and asked: "Is there really no cure for acne? Can I just watch Haier leave with regret?"

Physician Zhang hurriedly knelt down on the ground and dared not raise his head to see the sad father. He said in his mouth, "Prince, as long as you are in good health, acne can actually resist the past, but your son is very weak, and no medicine can exert its full effect. There is nothing you can do, please forgive me." Prince Ping waved his hand and said, "That's all, Imperial Physician Zhang. This is Hai'er's life, it's God's will. Get up and I won't blame you." Desperate, he knew that Hai'er could only resign himself to fate, why bother to kill innocent lives.

"I'm going to make medicine for the concubine now, I'm leaving." Doctor Zhang stood up, took the prescription on the table and left the room, leaving behind the frowning prince and the concubine sleeping on the bed.

Not long after, the concubine slowly opened her eyes, "Hai'er..." still calling Aiko's name. "Xiaoyun, just wake up." Prince Ping saw his beloved wife wake up, helped her up, and prepared to feed her the decoction prepared by Imperial Physician Zhang.

The concubine shook her head and said: "My lord, I can't drink it, let's put it away first." Seeing his beloved wife so sad for his son, Prince Ping felt like a knife was twisting his heart, so he had to move his son out to let him rest assured. "Xiaoyun, this is the decoction that Imperial Physician Zhang made for you. Haier will be worried if you look like this." Afterwards, the princess moved Aizi out, but when Princess Zhou Xiaoyun remembered that Aiko was still lying on the bed, she couldn't drink a sip of the decoction. Prince Ping had no choice but to bring the soup back to the table.At this time, the young servant who was guarding the door opened the door and walked in, saying, "I want to report to my lord, there is an old Taoist priest outside the door asking to see you."

Because of his beloved wife and son, Prince Ping was in an unusually irritable mood, and said, "Old man? See you there. Tell the accountant to take out 5 taels of silver and send him away."

There is a big mansion in the bustling street, with a stone lion squatting on the left and right in front of the house, three gold lacquered characters "Pingwangfu" are written on the plaque, and the lacquered red door is half open.An old Taoist in a blue Taoist robe with a bamboo crown on his head and hemp shoes stood in front of the door, looking into the door from time to time as if he was waiting for someone.

At this time, a young man in a blue Confucian shirt, with a folding fan in his hand and curly hair approached the palace. Seeing an old Taoist priest standing outside the door, he asked, "Master Taoist, what are you doing standing in front of my house?" Go, looked at the young man in front of him carefully and asked: "The poor Taoist has something to ask to see Prince Ping, may I ask if you are the eldest son Situ Jing?" Seeing that the old Taoist recognized him, Situ Jing hurriedly asked: "Yes, I am Situ Jing, May I ask what the Taoist priest is looking for my father?" The old Taoist waved his hand and said, "The poor Taoist heard that the young son Situ Hai is seriously ill and came to treat him."

"Are you here to save Hai'er? Then please follow me, and I'll take you to see my father." When Situ Jing heard that the old Taoist priest in front of him was here for his younger brother, he didn't dare to neglect.Greet him personally and lead him to meet his father.After Situ Jing asked Ming to come down, he led the Taoist priest to Situ Hai's room, opened the door and shouted, "Daddy, this Taoist priest said he can cure Hai'er."

Prince Ping saw that his elder son Situ Jing was so reckless, he opened his mouth to reprimand him, but he heard that the Taoist priest in front of him could heal the younger son, thinking he had heard wrongly, he asked, "Jing Er, what did you just say, this Taoist priest can help you?" Treat Hai'er?" Situ Jing nodded and said, "Yes, Daddy."

As soon as Prince Ping heard that the child was saved, he hurriedly asked, "I don't know where the Changxian resides, what is his name?" " Then the old man poured out two pills from the gourd on his back, pointed to the pills exuding a faint fragrance in his hand and said: "Prince Ping, this is a vanilla pill that can cure Xiaoshizi. cured."

When Prince Ping heard that the child was saved, he hurriedly bowed his hands and thanked him: "Thank you, Daoist, Axiu brought water to feed the prince and medicine." The maid Axiu who was standing at the side was about to leave to fetch water and medicine, but the old Taoist on the side hurriedly dissuaded him, saying: "Wait a minute. My lord, vanilla pills need to be taken with water without roots, otherwise they won't be effective." Prince Ping felt worried when he heard it, and thought: I have heard a lot about spring water and well water. What?

Situ Jing, who had been standing beside the bed, asked: "Master Dao, what is this rootless water? I have never seen it in a book." Prince Ping also hurriedly asked: "Master Dao, this king has never seen it before. I have never heard of it, where can I find this king?" The old Taoist said slowly: "My lord, my son. The water without roots is the water that falls from the sky without touching the earth, that is, rainwater. According to the poor Taoist calculation, tonight There will be rain, the lord only needs to ask someone to pick up some in a container, and then boil it on a steady fire before it can be used to deliver pills."

Prince Ping said to Situ Jing with a happy face: "Jing'er, tell me to go down, let the servants use vessels to catch the rainwater in the courtyard at midnight. By the way, take the Taoist priest to the guest room to rest, and wait for Hai'er to recover. Thank you in person, please treat the Daoist well and don't neglect." Situ Jing replied: "Yes, Daddy, I will do it now, Daoist, please follow me." Situ Jing led the old Taoist out of Situ Hai's room and walked to the guest room .

'Where is this?Why am I in pain?" I slowly sorted out my confused thoughts, I just remembered that I was watching his hometown at the gate of reincarnation with the king of reincarnation, and he pushed me into the road of reincarnation when I was not prepared.This king of reincarnation was so cruel to me behind my back because I trusted him so much, it's true that I didn't offend him.

"Water...water..." Axiu, the maid in front of the bed, heard a weak voice coming from the bed, and hurriedly shouted: "Wake up, prince and concubine, your son is awake." When he came to the bed, he picked up the person on the bed and began to cry. "Hai'er, my Hai'er, you've finally woken up, so I'm so anxious." Seeing his beloved wife crying again, Prince Ping persuaded him and ordered Axiu to fetch water to feed Haier to drink. "Ma'am, Haier is already awake and still crying. Let Haier lie down first and let the servant girl feed him some water." The princess hurriedly laid Haier down and wiped away the tears on her face, and said, "Haier woke me up." Happy." Turning around, he told Axiu, "Axiu, give me the water and I'll feed Haier to drink."

I didn't care about the people and things around me. I just saw the tea near my mouth, and hurriedly opened my mouth to send the cool water into my burning throat. The tea moistened my dry throat and made me feel better. Then I looked around. environment.Sitting next to me was a middle-aged woman who just fed me water. Her face was a bit haggard but she was also beautiful. She was wearing a light pink chrysanthemum-patterned top and a long green skirt. Her hair was tied in a bun. Insert a jasper hairpin.Standing behind him is a middle-aged man, whose sharp-edged face adds a bit of fortitude to his handsome face. He is about 1.8 meters tall and strong, wearing a green water crown and an evergreen shirt, staring at him with a concerned expression. I.Standing at the end of the bed is a delicate-looking woman aged [-], wearing a light yellow smock and a pleated skirt of the same color, also showing concern.

Axiu took the tea bowl from the concubine and left the room, leaving behind the Pingwang couple who were beside the bed looking happy and me lying on the bed at a loss.
