The emperor was very happy, and the emperor was very happy.
(Zhang Zhenniang)
For three consecutive days, Lu Cheng was summoned to the palace by Emperor Huizong every day to exchange ideas on painting.
Lu Cheng was not only good at sketching, but also good-looking and nice-speaking. He soon won the favor of Emperor Huizong.
At the same time, the news that Lu Cheng created a new painting method and won the emperor's love quickly spread throughout Bianjing City. Many things related to Lu Cheng were also mentioned one after another, such as inventing perfume and taming tigers.
For a time, Lu Cheng directly made the headlines of Bianjing City's hot list and became the subject of discussion on the streets.
Not only that, some officials with a keen sense of smell began to win over Lu Cheng.
Some officials of lower positions, hearing that Lu Cheng had not yet married, had already sent matchmakers to propose marriage.
Lu Cheng declined all of these for the time being.
If you want to be a favorite of the emperor, you can't stand on the side so quickly, and you can't get involved in party disputes and make the emperor unhappy.
Now, Lu Cheng is just a student of the Imperial Academy, which means he has one more painting skill than others, so he still has to put himself in the right position.
One evening, Lu Cheng returned from the Imperial Academy. On the way, he passed by the gate of a house and suddenly heard a commotion from inside: "Daughter, how can you do such a stupid thing? Jin'er, go and get a doctor!"
When Lu Cheng walked to the door of that house, a little maid ran out and almost bumped into Lu Cheng in a panic. Lu Cheng held her up.
Lu Cheng only took a glance and recognized that the little girl was Jin'er, the maid of Lin Chong's family.
"Little girl, watch the road."
"I'm sorry, sir." After saying that, the little girl wanted to run outside, but was stopped by Lu Cheng.
"Your family wants to hire a doctor? I am a doctor."
"Is this sir really a doctor? Please follow me and save my wife."
The little girl was desperate and tried all kinds of medical treatments. When she heard Lu Cheng claim to be a doctor, she didn't doubt it and pulled Lu Cheng towards the yard.
Lu Cheng followed the little girl to the backyard and came to a small building. He saw a strong man in his forties or fifties lying on the bed, calling anxiously: "Daughter, wake up quickly, you can't abandon your father. Daughter!"
"Master, the doctor is here."
The strong man turned his head and looked at Lu Cheng immediately after hearing this: "Is this a doctor? No matter what, save my daughter first."
Lu Cheng didn't say anything nonsense. He walked to the bed in two or three steps and looked at the woman lying on the bed. He saw a mark on the woman's neck and purple lips. It was Lin Chong's wife.
After observing the other party's face and taking her pulse to make sure that she could still be saved, Lu Cheng turned around and said, "This lady can still be saved, but my method of saving her is a bit unbelievable, which may be detrimental to her innocence. At the moment, this lady will be completely gone in half an hour at most. Please make a quick decision whether to save her."
"No matter what, the most important thing now is to save my daughter. If you really have a way, please rescue her quickly."
"Okay, please open the doors and windows to keep ventilation and make some room."
"Okay, I'll do it now."
This lady Lin hanged herself, and fortunately she was discovered in time and still had a breath.
After checking the other party's mouth and nose and confirming that there was no foreign body blocking the airway, Lu Cheng quickly performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation and artificial respiration.
Seeing Lu Cheng pressing on his daughter's chest and blowing on her lips, Lin's father almost stepped forward to pull Lu Cheng away and draw his sword, but he finally held back.
Lu Cheng ignored her. After some rescue, he pressed several times on Lin's key acupuncture points and soon restored her breathing.
After a while, Lin woke up slowly, saw Lu Cheng beside her, and looked at her father next to her.
Lin's father, Zhang Jiaotou, immediately stepped forward: "Daughter, my silly daughter, how could you do such a stupid thing? If you die, how can your father live?"
"Father... Father, I am unfilial... Gao Yanei is going to embarrass you again... I can't bear to see you framed..."
"You, my child, even if I lose this official position, I can't live without you."
Lu Cheng stood up and stood aside: "This lady has not fully recovered yet, and she still needs to continue treatment and medication. Lu didn't bring anything when he went out, so I'll go back to get the silver needles and medicine. Please keep an eye on this lady and don't let her think about it again."
"Yes, yes, I haven't asked this benefactor yet.
What's your name? I'm Zhang Rui. Thank you for your kindness!"
"My name is Lu Cheng, Lu Shouxin. I'm honored to meet Coach Zhang."
Mrs. Lin's father was also the coach of the 800,000 imperial guards. He was a colleague of Lin Chong. Since he had only one daughter in his family, he married his daughter to Lin Chong, which meant that he treated Lin Chong as both a son-in-law and a son.
After Lin Chong got into trouble, none of his friends came forward to help. Only Coach Zhang, even though Lin Chong had written a divorce letter, still helped Lin Chong with money and effort.
"Are you the great Mr. Lu who is proficient in painting?"
"It's Mr. Lu. Now is not the time to talk. Mr. Lu will be back soon."
Coach Zhang turned around and said, "Jin'er, take good care of Zhenniang."
"Yes, sir. "
Afterwards, Zhang sent Lu Cheng out the door. Lu Cheng went home to get the medicine box, and soon came back again. He gave medicine to this lady Lin, and performed acupuncture to straighten out the meridians. This was considered the treatment.
After putting away the medicine box, Lu Cheng turned to Zhang and said, "Zhang, your daughter needs to be well adjusted recently, and you need to pay more attention to her to avoid any more accidents."
"Yes, yes, thank you, Mr. Lu." As he said that, Zhang took out fifty taels of silver and was about to hand it to Lu Cheng, but was rejected by Lu Cheng.
"Although I am good at medicine, I don't make a living from it. Besides, saving a life is also a meritorious deed, so I don't need this money."
"How can this be? Please..."
"Okay, I'll leave if you say anything more."
"Okay, daughter, why don't you thank Mr. Lu for saving your life?"
"Yes, I thank you, Mr. Lu." "
There is great terror between life and death. After experiencing the feeling of near-death, Madam Lin has temporarily given up the idea of dying, and she does not want her father to send her off.
Of course, Madam Lin has been divorced by Lin Chong, so perhaps she should be called Madam Zhang.
Lu Cheng prescribed the medicine, gave some instructions, and then prepared to leave.
Coach Zhang sent Lu Cheng out the door, returned to the room, and immediately told the maid: "Jin'er, the process of Mr. Lu rescuing Zhenniang before must not be spread."
"Jin'er understands. "
Hearing this, Madam Zhang also blushed. After Lu Cheng's rescue, Madam Zhang regained her breath and consciousness. She clearly felt Lu Cheng's big hands pressing on her chest and blowing air into her mouth.
In this era, for an adult woman, only her husband can do this to her. If it were any other man, he would lose his innocence and reputation.
Thinking of this, Zhang Zhenniang looked miserable: "Father, my child has lost his innocence now. How will I face myself in the future..."
"Daughter, you have finally come back from the gates of hell, but don't think about these things anymore. Nothing is more important than your life. I only have you as my daughter. As for what happened today, I will keep it a secret for everyone in the mansion, so don't think too much about it. "
After saying this, Zhang walked out of the house, but frowned. Even if Lu Cheng's rescue could be kept secret, the news of his daughter's suicide would definitely spread, which would be very bad for his reputation.
Thinking of the "son-in-law" who had written a divorce letter and whose life and death were unknown, Zhang was annoyed, but then he thought of Lu Cheng. Now that this happened, perhaps the best way out for his daughter was to be a concubine to Mr. Lu.
As for the legitimate wife, there is no need to think about it. Lu Cheng is now a popular person around the emperor, with a huge fortune. Many officials are rushing to marry him. How could it be the turn of a divorced woman like his daughter?
Even if she was sent to be a concubine, Zhang was not sure whether Lu Cheng would accept her. Thinking that his daughter was only in her early twenties and had excellent appearance, Zhang had some confidence again. Maybe he could find a chance to ask.
Moreover, if she could get the protection of Lu Cheng, a close minister of the emperor, she might be able to avoid the harassment of Gao Yanei...
