The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

As the sky gradually darkened, Li Ji and his family were about to go back. Before leaving, Lady Yingguo repeatedly told Li Fu to take good care of his injuries and not to move around.

Li Fu agreed.

The two housekeepers, Lao Zhao and Lao Zhou, sent Li Ji and his family out the door and watched them leave.

There were a lot of bottles and jars on the table in the room, some of which were sent from the palace, some were sent by other families when they sent visiting cards, and the one sent by Li Shao today.

Judging by the eyes, it was enough for several times.

I hope there will be no next time, and it is best not to use these medicines.

Don't waste yourself because of using these medicines.

After sending Li Ji and his family away, Lao Zhao returned to Li Fu's room.

These two days, Lao Zhao has been taking care of Li Fu personally, and Xiao Tao is helping him.

"My dear, all the gifts for the betrothal have been prepared this morning. We will count them again tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. On the day of the betrothal, we can take them directly to the Duke of Ying's mansion." said Lao Zhao.

"Well, it's good that they are all ready. It took more than half a year to prepare these things. We can't make any mistakes. There is no time." said Li Fu.

"My dear, don't worry. When they were delivered, the housekeeper Zhou also checked them carefully. There is no problem at all. Now in the warehouse, Shitou and Dong Jiu take turns to lead people to guard. There must be no mistakes in the betrothal money." Lao Zhao comforted: "My dear, just rest assured to recover from your injuries. However, what do you plan to do when you meet Doctor Wei Zheng tomorrow?"

My dear said that when he meets Wei Zheng, he must receive him in a serious and open manner. Do he still have to stay in this room?

"Let's go to the front hall. Have someone light the charcoal fire and pad the chair for me." Li Fu said, "It's not appropriate here."

"My dear, is it okay? Your body is not well yet."

"Be patient. It's good for both of us." Li Fu said, "Besides, I've been taking the medicine for two consecutive days. It's much better than the first day. The external and internal applications are also effective."

"Then I'll change the medicine for you now, and I'll change it again before you go to bed." Lao Zhao said.

Li Fu nodded.

Lao Zhao picked up the medicine sent from the palace and began to change the medicine for Li Fu.

In the past two days, Li Fu's mouth has always been bitter.

There is no way. He drinks two bowls of soup every day. The bitter soup of Chinese medicine is not stronger than Huoxiang Zhengqi Water at all. His taste buds suffer twice a day.

After drinking it, no matter how much candied fruit he eats, it doesn't work. He feels that his breathing smells like medicine.

Xiao Tao brought new maltose candied fruit.

"My dear, the kitchen has made candied red fruit for you." Xiao Tao opened the pottery jar, which contained hawthorns wrapped in slightly yellow sugar icing.

"Since the sweet candied fruit can't hold up, why don't you try something sweet and sour?"

Li Fu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

It was the bitter medicine he drank in his mouth, not that he was pregnant! ! ! !

"Okay." Li Fu picked up a hawthorn.

As long as the taste in his mouth is not bad, it's fine.

It's only been three days, and Li Fu has drunk enough medicine.

Or a bowl of medicine in the morning and evening.

The court officials had to discuss politics in the palace in the morning. Even after the court was dismissed, the three provinces and six ministries had things to deal with, and Wei Zheng was the same. Therefore, his visit to Li Fu was arranged in the afternoon. After finishing the work in the yamen, he could take time to come to Jingyang Palace.

Cheng Yaojin and the others were interesting, and they came at noon.

They came to see Li Fu and also rushed to eat.

Li Fu sat down on a chair in the hall with difficulty.

Seeing this, Wei Zheng bowed to Li Fu.

"During the Zhenguan New Dynasty, Your Highness recommended me, but I have never visited you. Please forgive me." Wei Zheng looked at Li Fu with some apology.

The two met several times in the palace, and occasionally when they discussed things, they sat together in the Liangyi Hall.

"Your Highness must have heard about my situation in the court, so privately, I dare not get too close to Your Highness, so as not to implicate Your Highness."

Li Fu smiled.

"Doctor Wei, I know you." Li Fu smiled and looked at Wei Zheng: "You dare to speak out and speak the truth when His Majesty is impulsive. Although His Majesty often gets angry because of this, your approach is not wrong. Moreover, His Majesty is broad-minded. I think you have seen it in the past two years. I once said that when everyone is hot-headed, it is a good thing to have a wise man stand up and cool everyone down."

"Your Highness is wise." Wei Zheng bowed his hands and praised.

"Then why did Doctor Wei bear to come to my palace today?" Li Fu asked with a smile.

"I heard about His Highness's affairs in the East Palace, and I was worried, so I came to see. After all, His Highness was injured. If I still pretended to be deaf and dumb and kept silent, whenIt's too much to say that nothing happened. "Wei Zheng said.

Li Fu thought that Wei Zheng was very interesting.

"It's okay, it's just a little punishment." Li Fu smiled and said, "Just take a few days to recuperate, and it will be fine."

"By the way, Xuancheng, you didn't come to me to find out what happened to the crown prince in the East Palace, so that you can report it to His Majesty, right?" Li Fu asked with a smile.

Wei Zheng was stunned and shook his head with a smile.

"No, His Majesty has already made a conclusion on this matter in the palace, and it's over." Wei Zheng said.

"That's good." Li Fu smiled.

"However, I am indeed a little curious, but if Your Highness doesn't want to say it, it doesn't matter. "

Li Fu smiled and shook his head.

"There is nothing much to say about children's studies. Children from ordinary families who don't study hard will not escape a beating, let alone the prince of the Eastern Palace. If the prince doesn't study hard, we can't be punished directly. Can't we, the prince's teachers, be punished?"

Wei Zheng nodded: "So that's the case. Your Majesty has been busy with court affairs in the past six months and has never paid attention to the Eastern Palace as before. If the prince doesn't study hard, it is indeed the responsibility of the prince's teacher. "

"Your Majesty appoints officials as the prince's teachers to let them teach the prince, read, and understand reason. If the prince is playful and doesn't study hard, it is not considered to be sensible, and it is the responsibility of the prince's teacher. "

"Now in the Eastern Palace, although there are several prince's teachers, in terms of official position, I, the prince's tutor, am the head. "Li Fu smiled and said: "Xuancheng also knows that I don't live in Chang'an City very much. "

Wei Zheng nodded.

That's true.

It seems that His Majesty is very angry about the things in the East Palace this time, but this anger comes and goes quickly.

In the future, as long as the prince studies hard and the country is upright, there won't be too many troubles.

Li Fu remembered that in history, Wei Zheng was also Li Chengqian's teacher, but at present, Wei Zheng has not reached this point.
