Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 1203
In fact, Li Hong had already despaired of his illness, and he did not believe that a foreign liar could save his life.

He tried his best to write a memorial with the solemnity of a martyr.

The content in the memorials is contrary to the modesty and care that has been maintained for many years, and shows its sharpness everywhere.

This is a piece of exhortations, Li Hong pointed out the various disadvantages of the emperor's belief in longevity, and then quoted scriptures, from Qin Huang to Han Wu.

Talking about the big mistakes made by the emperors of various dynasties, comparing the longevity technique with the emperor's stupidity, and giving examples of various dynasty turmoil and people's suffering caused by the emperor's pursuit of longevity.

This memorandum was like a sharp sword out of its sheath. It was cold and pierced straight into the heart. Just looking at the content, it was completely different from Li Hong's usual personality, as if he had changed into a different person.

Yes, Li Hong no longer has scruples, and he doesn't need to be cautious in front of his father.

Because he knew very well that his life had entered the countdown, even if his father was furious and deposed him as the crown prince, it would be no loss to him.

If he could help his father correct his mistakes in time before he died and bring Datang back to the right track, Li Hong would die without regret.

After the last stroke, Li Hong, who was exhausted, shook his right hand, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood from the side of his head, and fell heavily on the bed.

Blood was spat on the ground, and a little bit was also stained on the still ink.

Li Hong felt extremely relieved to be relieved of the last responsibility in the world.

He is actually only in his twenties, and he is only a teenager, he is not that sensible.

He also wanted to play unscrupulously for fun like other teenagers, wanted to be wild, and wanted to do some bad things that a young man should do.

Others only envy his brilliance, but he alone envies three-thirds of the fireworks in the world.

Don't dare to ask for ten, it's too extravagant.

Lu Jiayi left the East Palace and returned to the post.

Along the way, his face was gloomy and he was in a very bad mood.

Today in the East Palace, Lu Jiayi felt more and more uncomfortable being targeted by the crown prince for no reason, but Li Hong was the crown prince after all, so he could only swallow his anger.

Fortunately, the crisis of seeing a doctor for the prince today was barely over, not a fluke, because he came prepared.

A liar walks the rivers and lakes, of course he has his own means, otherwise no one will be fooled by just coaxing with a few words.

When he announced to the outside world that he would make the elixir of life and he could cure the prince's illness, he was ready.

The preparation work is very simple. Know the prince's condition in advance, and memorize the prescription prescribed by the imperial physician to Li Hong, and he will modify it a little bit to make people confused and inexplicable. His goal will be achieved.

As for how to know the prince's condition and how to get the imperial physician's prescription, it is actually not difficult.

These days, he has received many believers in Chang'an City, and among them are many dignitaries.

Don't doubt, not all the rich and powerful are shrewd. As long as people have desires and demands, they will definitely take advantage of the opportunity and be fooled by Lu Jiayi's words.

With dignitaries as his disciples, contacts, power and money, it is not difficult to get prescriptions from the Imperial Medical Office.

The carriage was approaching the post, and the coachman told him that there were many people gathered in front of the post, including rich and powerful people in rich clothes, and ordinary people, most of whom came to see the doctor.

The carriage stopped in front of the posthouse, but Lu Jiayiduo didn't get out of the carriage for a long time. He sat in the carriage and meditated for a moment, then adjusted the expression on his face, showing grief and humiliation, and then slowly opened the curtain.

A group of dignitaries and ordinary people came to welcome him. After seeing the ceremony, sharp-eyed people noticed that Lu Jiayi had an ugly expression, as if he had suffered a great humiliation. Everyone was curious, and several dignitaries stepped forward to ask.

Lu Jiayi frowned tightly, and when people asked, he just shook his head and remained silent. Everyone was anxious. In their eyes, Lu Jiayi was a supernatural being with great supernatural powers. Now this expert seems to be being bullied. I can't bear it.

As the believers bypassed the blocked door, Lu Jiayi's expression became more and more indignant, and he walked into the post without saying a word.

A group of believers outside the gate were dumbfounded, but after seeing the attendants guarding the post, the believers surrounded one after another, and the nobleman took out a piece of silver cake from his arms and stuffed it into the hands of the attendants.

The entourage put away the silver cakes without showing any signs of expression. Under the questioning of the believers, the entourage sighed and said in grief and indignation: "The master was humiliated today, and everything starts with the master entering the East Palace to treat the prince..."

…………

Two things happened in Chang'an City in the past two days, and the whole city knew about it.

The first thing was that Lu Jiayiduo, who was very favored by the emperor, was humiliated by His Highness the Crown Prince in the East Palace. The Crown Prince did not cooperate with Lu Jiayiduo's consultation at all, and instead made ridicule everywhere.

After all, Lu Jiayi was a great master, quite a gentleman, he silently endured the prince's insults, not only that, but also conscientiously diagnosed the prince, prescribed prescriptions, and was a model of repaying grievances with virtue.

Li Hong has been the prince of the Tang Dynasty for many years, and the government and the public have always had a high reputation. For the first time in his life, he became the villain in the rumors.

The second thing is that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was seriously ill, personally wrote a piece of persuasion and sent it to the Tai Chi Palace.

The memorials advise the emperor to stay away from villains, be close to virtuous officials, practice benevolent government, and put an end to evil laws.

In the memorial, the prince was outspoken, accusing the emperor of believing in the disaster of magicians, and saying that longevity is false and should not be trusted. He also cited the emperors of the past dynasties who believed in longevity, proving the disaster and suffering that the emperor's belief in longevity brought to the world.

The content of the memorandum was sharp and the words were sharp. Even Liu Rengui, who was famous for cursing the streets, couldn't help but take a breath when he saw this memorandum, and he was willing to bow down.

No one dared to stop His Highness the crown prince's memorial, so Xu Jingzong handed the memorial to Li Zhi's desk.

It is said that after reading the memorial, Li Zhi had a complicated expression, angry and helpless, and thought for a long time, and ordered to send some valuable warming and nourishing medicinal materials, as well as food and clothing, etc. to the East Palace.

After the content of Prince Li Hong's memorial was spread throughout the court, it caused an uproar in the court.

The courtiers had different attitudes towards Li Zhi's belief in longevity, some agreed and some opposed, and were divided into two camps because of this matter.

Now the prince openly opposes Li Zhi's belief in longevity, which is tantamount to a heavy blow to the courtiers who agree with longevity, while the courtiers who oppose longevity are rejoicing.

The prince's weight is too heavy, his attitude can indeed affect the court situation, now that the prince has publicly stood in line, the courtiers have gradually felt a different taste, more and more courtiers opposed the longevity technique for a while, and the participation in impeachment Lu Jiayi's memorials also flew into the Taiji Palace like snowflakes.

In this matter, Li Zhi's situation became more and more passive. It is no exaggeration to say that Prince Li Hong gave Li Zhi a backstab.

Undercurrents surged in Chang'an City, and when the turmoil in the court became more intense, Li Qinzai's layout was gradually completed.

On the second day of Li Hong's remonstrance, Song Sen came to the Duke's mansion and reported a piece of news to Li Qinzai.

Baiqisi found out the whereabouts of the ten or so people who surrounded the posthouse and forced Lu Jiayi to make more medical consultations, and even brought back the prescriptions that Lu Jiayi had prescribed.

The amazing thing is that Baiqisi can't make a judgment on the condition of those people who seek medical treatment.

The illnesses of the common people who seek medical treatment are inherently difficult and miscellaneous, otherwise they would not seek treatment from the so-called expert Lu Jiayiduo.

After taking the medicine prescribed by Lu Jiayi, their condition seemed to be relieved a lot, and it seemed to be really effective.But after the doctor from Chang'an City came to the door for a follow-up visit to check his pulse, the doctor frowned deeply and shook his head repeatedly.

Judging from the pulse, their condition has not improved, but they feel good about themselves, and even have an illusion of recovery.

This is very amazing, no matter how much Song Sen thinks, he can't figure out why it has such an effect after taking the medicine.

What Song Sen didn't understand, Li Qinzai seemed to understand.

Deceit is deception, it is not supernatural powers, nor is it fairy art, as long as you see through its appearance and intuit its essence, all unexplainable phenomena can be easily solved.

Just like watching a magician's performance, the performance certainly attracts the audience and makes the audience exclaim and shock, but magic is not magic after all. Magic is just a combination of props and techniques to deceive the eyes. No wonder.

Lu Jiayiduo is the Tang Dynasty version of a magician, and what he plays is blindfolding.

Li Qinzai gradually understood his tactics.

"Lu Jiayi played a lot of routines, I seem to have played it many years ago..." Li Qinzai was thoughtful.

Song Sen was stunned: "Mr. Li will also?"

Li Qinzai turned around and went into the study, and came out after tinkering for a while, holding a bag of powder in his hand.

"How rare, I can be a miracle doctor." Li Qinzai said proudly.
