starling is not a bird

The rain in the south of the Yangtze River is like fine needles, with rain-stained red fragrance, charming and moving, hitting plantains, startling the fish, dripping with tears of lovesickness, especially lingering.However, the rain in the capital city is another scene. On a rainy day, the rain does not fall in drops but in bundles twisted into columns and smashes to the ground. Thrilling.

On the post road, horseshoes galloped through the mud, and a black boxcar ran over a puddle, splashing dirty water.Under the dense rain, the carriage entered the capital from the south gate.

Yunlai Inn

Before tidying up his wet clothes, he just wiped his face in a hurry. Yaqibu sent a few boys into the room to wait on him, and he waited outside the room until the door opened with a "squeak", and Yaqibu He raised his voice: "Mr. Ye, excuse me."

The man in the green shirt in the room was sitting at the table holding a teacup, when he saw him come in, he threw away the teacup and got up to greet him.Yaqibu caught up a few steps and pushed the man back on the stool, "Mr. Ye has worked hard all the way, and he has ordered the kitchen to deliver dinner here. Mr. Ye should go to bed early, and he will make plans tomorrow after he has been wronged all night."

"Boss, you are too polite. I will take care of you all the way, and I will report it in the future." The young man surnamed Ye cupped his hands, hesitated, and then said: "Boss, I'm going to see your Patriarch tomorrow, and I don't know how big it is." Steward, what is your background? You may as well tell me frankly."

Yaqibu stood up and made a salute: "Mr. Ye, to tell you the truth, I leave Beijing in the name of my lord to look for a famous doctor. No matter how many famous doctors along the way, my lord won't be favored by my lord. Only you are the one who is valued by the lord. My family My lord treats my husband with sincerity, I just hope that my lord will be able to show his talents, and my lord can get what he wants, and I hope that my lord will not worry too much and just work with peace of mind. My lord will definitely not let you down." After speaking, Yaqib left respectfully.

The young man surnamed Ye sat there and thought for a long time. What happened during this period was too fast and too sudden. He always felt that everything was like a dream. Get through each day.

But ever since the mandarin-speaking housekeeper showed up in front of the magistrate with the prefect's name card and the governor's letter, the magistrate Hu, who has always held his head high and chested out, put on a flattering smile and devoted all the county's efforts to please the county magistrate. One person's joy.

Then I was inexplicably assigned by the government to serve as an attendant in the capital, and followed the big steward all the way to the capital.

Thinking about it carefully, I don't have anything, the big butler is already overbearing, and his master is probably even more extraordinary. At this point, he can't help himself to make decisions. If he comes, he will be safe, but secretly set the rules for himself: However, anything that is harmful to the nature, harms reason and goes against ethics, would rather ruin his life than accompany him.

Swallowing the exquisite dinner, looking at the dishes he was familiar with, knowing that the butler had deliberately ordered it, he calculated all the gains and losses in his heart, and the young man undressed and went to bed, without a dream all night.

Bangzi had just knocked on the fifth watch, and people were already coming and going at Yunlai Inn. In the hall on the second floor, Yaqibu had already washed up, and his attendants were all sitting and drinking tea, waiting for the young man to get up.Hearing the sound of horseshoes coming from downstairs, one of the companions stood up and opened the window to look down, only to see a young chestnut-brown flying horse with a bunt coming and stopping in front of the inn.The companion gave Yaqibu a wink, and Yaqibu went to the window to have a look, and recognized that the man was the master's most useful confidant, and hurriedly stood up to greet him.

The door was pushed open carefully, and the young man rushed in lightly, nodded slightly at Yaqibu, took out a token from his pocket and handed it to Yaqibu, and whispered to him: "The master asked you to quietly Take it to another courtyard, and settle it quickly, and the master will go there at noon." Yaqibu took the token and carefully put it in his sleeve, and the young man turned and left quickly.

While speaking, the young man surnamed Ye had already left the room, Yaqibu made a gesture, and his own attendants went to the room to pack the things, and the goods surnamed Ye were carried into the carriage again.

When he got out of the car at the beginning, the young man was frightened by the so-called other courtyard, which was completely different from the exquisite scenery of Suzhou he was used to. In his hometown, he had also been to the salt merchant's banquet, Humble Administrator's Garden, Lingering Garden, Net The four famous gardens of Lion Garden and Huanxiu Mountain Villa have also enjoyed and chanted, "Covered hawthorn soil forms a platform, gathers fist stones to form a mountain, and rings bucket water to form a pond", "Rain frightened poems and dreams come to banana leaves, and the sound of wind carries books to produce lotus roots. Flowers" is the garden artistic conception he is familiar with.

But the building in front of him was majestic. He followed the chief steward into the east gate. Just after passing the three couplets of the palace gate, he saw two tall stone lions leaning against the gate. There is a vermilion forehead hanging on it, with the words "Hutian Xiaojing" written on it.Entering the palace gate, the left and right sides of the main hall are rockery piled up with clouds and stones.The three palaces are all south-facing, surrounded by rivers around the palace, and there is a "Hanbi Pavilion" with four-cornered square pavilions on the east.On the south bank, there are three inverted-seat buildings, and in the northwest, there are three water-seat houses facing north.

The young man took a closer look and saw that there were lakes in the front and back of the other courtyard, and there were all kinds of buildings, pavilions and pavilions in the garden.There are a large number of ancient trees and vines in the garden. Elk, white cranes, peacocks, and bamboo chickens are scattered in the forest. Twenty miles to the left willow embankment, there are thousands of famous flowers, which is simply a willow embankment flower sea.

Yaqibu pointed to the room next to the water bank for young people, and opened the back window to enjoy lotus fishing.The outside is connected to the suite hall, and outside the hall are dozens of verandahs, all of which are painted with exquisite patterns.The west area is all white walls, with ten brocade false windows embedded on them.There are dense rows of weeping poplars on the front and rear banks... Outside the back wall of the palace courtyard, there are tens of thousands of bamboo poles.Outside the north wall of Xisuo, surrounded by mountains, there is a hall with three volumes.Across the north bank of the river, there are still three terrace rooms.There is an earth mountain in the north wall of the garden, and a long river outside the wall.

Yaqibu invited the young man surnamed Ye to watch tea in the side building, and he went down after accusing him of a crime.The uneasiness in the heart of the young man surnamed Ye became more and more serious. Who can have such enjoyment in the capital, he must not be an ordinary rich and powerful person. How could such a person be provoked by himself?

After a few cups of tea, the young man surnamed Ye felt his stomach slump slightly, he stopped drinking, and was looking for a convenient place, when the big butler led someone in, he took a closer look and found that he knew each other.

"Brother Shengbai, long time no see."

The newcomer was wearing a Husha gown, with a haughty expression on his face. Seeing that he was an acquaintance, he received a bit of chills, and reluctantly raised his hand to return the salute.

Yaqib passed the tea fruit

"The two gentlemen are masters. This time, my Patriarch has traveled a long distance to invite the two gentlemen to Beijing. It is just to hope that the two gentlemen can live and die as rumored. I hope that the gentlemen will not refuse."

That Xue Shengbai always had eyes above the top, he was born in Hedong County, the county where the Xue family lived for a long time, and he was a noble family looked up to by the local area.The ancestor was Xi Zhong, the descendant of the Yellow Emperor, who lived in Xue for many years. During the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties, he was a vassal for 64 generations. At the end of the Zhou Dynasty, Xue State was destroyed by Chu State. Jijun passed on medicine.Xue Shengbai is also a famous doctor in Suzhou, and he became famous first.The young man surnamed Ye was Ye Tianshi, a famous doctor in the Qing Dynasty. He was just approaching his age at this time, but his reputation had already risen and he would not let others.

When they were in Suzhou, the two had quarrels from time to time, but they both kept their identities and refused to show them in public. It's just that Xue Shengbai renamed his residence "Sao Ye Zhuang"; Ye Tianshi named his residence "Ta Xue Zhai".They all took a deep breath, trying to get away from each other, but unexpectedly, someone didn't wink and invited them together.

The two sat silently facing each other, one closed his eyes and meditated, the other bowed his head in thought, Yaqibu ignored them.After a while, there was a knock on the cloud panel outside the door, and Yaqibu hurriedly led his people out to meet him.

Soon a servant in brown clothes came to invite two good doctors into the inner room for consultation.Ye Tianshi was originally one generation behind Xue Shengbai, so he was naturally allowed to go first.In front of the rosewood round table in the main hall, sat a nobleman.

The two doctors took turns to take the pulse, and then checked the tongue. Xue Sheng was very puzzled. The pulse in front of him was quite peaceful, and the Qi and blood were not weak. It can harmonize qi and blood, and all diseases will not arise. I am afraid that all diseases will arise once there is depression.It's just that this kind of minor illness can be recuperated by my own closed disciples, so how can I use myself to consult with that surnamed Ye?

Ye Tianshi also had his own thoughts, looked up at Xue Shengbai, and waited quietly.Yaqibu respectfully stood aside, not daring to speak, but the nobleman himself spoke up: "No matter what the result is, just tell me."

Xue Shengbai cleared his throat: "Sir, your body has been well-raised since you were a child. Now it's just a few minor symptoms. It's probably caused by something. The five internal organs are injured by the seven emotions due to emotional discomfort, and the liver fails to drain. , Deficiency syndrome of spleen failure. Do you have symptoms such as dry mouth, bitter mouth, headache, irritability, chest tightness and hypotension on weekdays?"

The people who served in front of the seat were amazed: "You are really a miracle doctor, and what you said is not bad, so how can you cure it?"

Xue Shengbai nodded: "There is no need to prescribe special medicine, but it is to clear the liver and relieve fire, relieve depression and harmonize the stomach. The prescription is Danmei Xiaoyao San combined with Zuojin Wan. If you have constipation, add yellow and aloe vera. If you still have eyes For symptoms of red tinnitus, add cassia and gentian, replace tea with Ophiopogon japonicus and chrysanthemum sencha in daily diet, clear away heat and reduce internal heat. If possible, apply acupuncture daily for Hegu, Taichong, Jingming, Taiyang, Feng Pond and Xiexi will be healed after autumn and winter are nourished properly."

The nobleman nodded, and then looked at Ye Tianshi. It was a common saying, so he didn't ask any more questions, and ordered someone to take the house to decoct the medicine.

Xue Shengbai and Ye Tianshi were also left behind for "constant consultation", although those two were unwilling, they had no choice.At this time, the two of them were strangers in a foreign land, and they just followed the routine routine consultations, administering needles and prescribing medicines, but they saw a lot of rare medicinal materials and rare medical skills and rare books here. Both of them were secretly happy. Research argues, as if returning to the apprenticeship.After going back and forth like this for a few times, the estrangement between the two of them in the past has disappeared, and it feels like it's the same as before. They both plan to go back and change the name of their house.

But the pure days will always be interrupted by a thunderbolt from the blue sky, otherwise the long ones will be more than suffering, and the short ones will not be life.

When the officers and soldiers came in to lock it, Xue Shengbai was reading Chen Shiyi's six-volume "Secret Records of the Stone Chamber" with great interest. Ye Tianshi was in the yard, using the Albizia julibrissin flowers that had been dried for the past few days with Wu Baiziren and Yejiao vines, Tulip soaked in wine, intending to restore the Yehezhi wine in the ancient recipe.

Until the two were pushed to a cold and damp cell, they didn't understand what they had done wrong.After all, Xue Shengbai had experienced it, knowing that he must have encountered a big taboo. At this time, he was unfamiliar with the place of life and the situation was unknown, so he simply sat down on the moldy straw pile to rest.Ye Tianshi was always young and enthusiastic, shaking the prison door and asking loudly: "Why did you arrest people for no reason and let us out."

Ye Tianshi yelled several times but nothing happened, Ye Tianshi still didn't give up, he shook and creaked the wooden cell door, and finally a man who looked like an impatient cell boss came over and swung his whip: "What are you shouting about, I hate my own life!" Too long? Don't worry, when you are crying and shouting, you dare to murder the royal family, just wait for a thousand cuts!" Ye Tianshi was shocked when he heard the words, and collapsed on the ground, even Xue Shengbai who was sitting was terrified.The two looked at each other, only to see the same panic. "Royal family?"

There is chaos in Prince Yu's mansion, and the house is in chaos.

It turned out that the eighth elder brother's nanny, Yaqibu, had found a good doctor. According to Prince Yu's intention, he asked the two of them to follow the right path to enter the imperial hospital, and take the seal of the Suzhou county magistrate to the imperial hospital to give a report. , After being inspected by the head office of the Taiyuan Hospital, he will be guaranteed by the doctors and medical officers of the Taiyuan Hospital, and the hall officials (hospital envoys, court judges, etc.) will take a face-to-face examination to become an imperial doctor.But the eighth elder brother Yinhu knew that if the two of them entered the imperial hospital, firstly it would take too long, and secondly, there was a saying that "accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger". If you are cautious, you will be reprimanded, and you will be severely punished.It is even more difficult to describe all kinds of darkness in Taitai Hospital where they are jealous of each other, exclude each other, play tricks on each other, and form cliques for personal gain.How about putting the two of them in the Bieyuan Garden in the suburbs of Beijing, Prince Yu Fuquan, and Prince Yu will serve the white dragon fish to see him, so that good doctors can show their talents.Doesn't Prince Yu Fuquan know that what he thinks is all the truth, and that Bieyuan is also his own property, so it is convenient to come and go, so he agreed to hide his name and go to see a doctor every day.

After taking the medicine for several decades, Prince Yu felt that he was light and healthy, and he was very happy.Unfortunately, one day Prince Yu went on a tour with the emperor, and the two old brothers became interested. Prince Yu couldn't wait to test the results of his recuperation, so he competed with the emperor on horseback riding and archery. Falling off a horse and fainting to the ground, Kangxi and this eldest brother have always been close, worrying inexplicably, recruiting the imperial physician, incense, and injections, but no one wakes up, the imperial physician dared to say that it might be bad, but the emperor In a hurry, Pegasus took the princess into the palace. Women and Taoists are used to stinging scorpions. They couldn't hide things in their hearts, and they wailed for quack doctors to kill people. Kangxi was furious when he heard the news, and sent guards to arrest people. The shocking scene in the other courtyard.
