Chapter 6: Feeling the Pulse
Chapter 6: Feeling the Pulse
"Your Majesty, your injury is still not healed, you should rest as soon as possible."
Xiao Dezi grinds it carefully, looking at the mountain of memorials on the desk
Fang Wen Qing coolly asked
"what about people"
Xiaode Zidao
"Someone has been sent, and it is estimated that they will arrive soon."
Fang Wenqing took the booklets one by one, opened them and glanced at them, and said angrily:
"Those ministers will do this all day long with their royal salaries. I really have raised them for nothing."
Xiao Dezi took a sneak peek and didn't dare to say any more, and continued to grind obediently.
At this time, the guards outside the door came to report "return to the emperor, the person has been brought"
Fang Wenqing said, "Bring it in"
Liu Yiran walked into the imperial study step by step, every step he took brought the pain in his body to the marrow.Fang Wenqing turned around and looked at him, with disheveled hair, dirty bloody body and glaring welts, but her eyes were still willful and refused to admit defeat.
Liu Yiran came and knelt on the ground, and said plainly
"Criminals kowtow to the emperor"
Fang Wenqing stretched out his hand sideways to take the memorial on the desk, looked at it with great interest, and said
"Tell me, should I approve this memorial or not. Hmm? My concubine wants to give me some pointers."
As he said that, he leaned over and pinched Liu Yiran's jaw to force him to look at the memorials in his hands, one by one, they all talked about Liu Yiran's crimes, he deserved death, and hoped that the emperor would get rid of him as soon as possible.
Liu Yiran sneered
"The humble life can make the ministers of the court so worried, and also make the emperor so embarrassed, it seems that I, Liu Yiran, should smile even if I go underground."
Fang Wenqing didn't care either, and said to the waiting slave
"Come here, wash and change my beloved concubine"
Fu looked at Liu Yiran again and said
"This virtue looks disgusting to me"
......
Back at the Qingxiao Palace, there are servants waiting here for everything.
After Liu Yiran took a bath, she changed into clean clothes and came out.
A maid came to Liu Yiran with a pile of small porcelain bottles and said respectfully
"The servant girl, Xiaocui, was sent by the emperor to serve the young master."
Liu Yiran hadn't figured out why Fang Wenqing let him go so easily, and now he sent servants to serve him, so he was very puzzled.But thinking of what Xu Junmo said, as long as he can live, there will be a way to leave.
......
next day
The sky is full of Xia Fei, the begonia flowers are floating, and the weather in early autumn is still anxious and uncomfortable.
Fang Wenqing stepped into the front door of the Qingxiao Hall and came to the yard, hanging the birdcage in his hand on the branch, and the following servants carried the imperial meals and spread them one by one before leaving.
Tongue-smacking starlings flutter their feathers and chirp
"I love my concubine, I love my concubine,"
Fang Wenqing teased it with a stick, he was in a good mood, and said with a smile
"Huaguo is really smart, call me again"
Huaguo is full of spirits again
"My concubine is so bold, she will have dinner with me"
This flower fruit was originally a pet of Shen Qianyi, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, and Shen Qianyi treated him as a treasure.Not long ago Shen Qian was also sick on the couch, Fang Wenqing went to visit, and was very happy to see this bird, Shen Qian also refused to part with it, so he didn't take it seriously, this noon on a whim, he became a hypocrite again, Who dares not to obey Huangwei once he takes it, he insists on asking for the flowers and fruits.
He was tortured yesterday morning, and although the wound has been medicated, his whole body is still in pain, so Liu Yiran reluctantly got up, pulled the door and walked out.Without knowing it, he looked at Fang Wenqing.
"The emperor is so elegant, I don't know what a good idea is."
Fang Wenqing smiled softly and said
"The good show is yet to come, now accompany me to have dinner"
Fang Wenqing sat down, the corners of her lips slightly raised.Liu Yiran's food was tasteless, and this sudden "tenderness" made him tremble all over.
After breakfast, Xiao Dezi brought a bowl full of boiled medicine and put it on the stone table. Although he knew that the emperor would not drink it, he still brought the boiled medicine on time every day.
"It's time for the emperor to drink the medicine"
Fang Wenqing frowned and said angrily
"Didn't I just say that I'm in good health and don't take medicine, those imperial physicians are deaf to my words, take them away?"
Xiaode Zidao
"Your Majesty, you'd better drink some, your injury won't get better if you don't drink medicine."
Xiao Dezi was well aware of the emperor's temper, and said respectfully to Liu Yiran,
"Mr. Liu, please persuade the emperor. The emperor just woke up today, and he has been busy for a long time, and he refuses to drink medicine. How can his body bear it?"
Fang Wenqing roared "presumptuous"
Xiao Dezi knew that the emperor was moody, so his temper was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with a plop and begged for mercy.
Liu Yiran replied leisurely after a long time
"The emperor wants to seek death, but I can't help it"
Hearing the mockery in his words, Fang Wenqing waved his sleeves, and the medicine bowl on the table fell to pieces with a bang, and the black medicine juice flowed all over the floor.Fang Wenqing got up and approached and raised his hands and was about to go down, Liu Yiran waited with his face up and his eyes closed, this was Fang Wenqing's true nature, and he would feel at ease.Fang Wenqing's hand rested on his face, stroking the scar that hadn't subsided, leaned over to enclose his lips, and said with a deceptive voice
"Aifei, is this inviting me?"
Liu Yiran opened his eyes, as if he wanted to see him clearly. No one is born willing to be tortured, but if he wants to step on his dignity, he will stubbornly refuse to give in. As a man, what will happen to him? able to admit defeat
Fang Wenqing sat down and spread his hands up in front of Liu Yiran, saying:
"Take my pulse"
Liu Yiran was stunned, he didn't expect this to happen.When he was still in Yangzhou, he was famous for his literary talents and medical skills. He was full of passion and ambition. He once vowed to serve the country and benefit the people.The sky is unfavorable, and now all I have left is the dignity that is fragmented and vigorously maintained, but at this moment, seeing that Fang Wenqing actually wants me to feel his pulse, I am filled with emotion, so I put four fingers on the pulse, and I am serious. Really get your pulse on.
"The pulse condition is heavy and strong, which is caused by evil stagnation in the interior, stagnation of qi and blood, and poor yang qi. The emperor does not take the medicine prescribed by the imperial hospital on time. If the disease is again, it will be cured."
Fang Wenqing said domineeringly
"Prescribe medicine for me. My injury was caused by you. I will take care of my body from now on."
Liu Yiran couldn't help looking at the dark concoction on the ground and asked
"The emperor promises that the emperor will drink the medicine prescribed next?"
Fang Wenqing didn't answer.
Liu Yiran asked Xiao Dezi to bring the pen and ink, and laid out the paper. One by one, it was beautiful and timeless, but also vigorous and powerful. It reads: [-] points for Wangbuliuxing, [-] points for capsule leaves, [-] points for mulberry root and white skin, and [-] points for Sichuan pepper. [-]% licorice, two parts each of scutellaria baicalensis, dried ginger, peony, and magnolia officinalis, the first three flavors are burnt, and the last six flavors are ground into powder, and the two groups are mixed evenly.
Xiao Dezi took the prescription and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, then hurried to the imperial hospital to grab the medicine.
Liu Yiran sat down and looked at him, and said
"The emperor is not afraid to prescribe poison in the prescription"
Fang Wenqing was amused, "You think all those imperial physicians I raised were for nothing"
That's right, is there any poison doctor who can tell at a glance that such a smart person actually asked such a stupid question.
Liu Yiran lowered her head and stopped looking at him, but she had other considerations in her heart and racked her brains, but she couldn't figure out why Fang Wenqing let her go so easily.
Each of the four major crimes is enough to put him to death.When he stabbed Fang Wenqing with that knife, he really wanted to kill him, wishing he could tear him to pieces.But when the stabbing was done, the one who hurt was himself.
The person who falls in love first is destined to be the one who will never recover.
Because I was in love, I yearned for a little bit of his tenderness, a gentle look in his eyes, and a gentle word.
