The Second Master Lian of the Red Chamber

Imperial Physician Wang and his uncle had a close relationship with Ning Rong and the Second Mansion. The imperial physicians cured diseases and saved lives, but they were not seen by high-ranking officials and nobles, so there were very few people who made trouble.Even if the Jia clan gradually declined, when the servants came to invite them with invitations, as long as they were not the nobles who had already accepted, Imperial Physician Wang would rush over to see the doctor with all his heart and responsibilities, without any slight of contempt.

Besides, because of the things that happened in the past, Imperial Physician Wang always respected the nobles in the palace and the few families who are now in full swing.Just like what his uncle taught back then, they only get a small amount of consultation money to practice medicine, so why bother to go into those unnecessary muddy waters.The Jia family is down and out, so naturally there are advantages to being down.

But today, as soon as he felt Jia Zhu's pulse, Imperial Physician Wang thumped in his heart, and couldn't help frowning, feeling that it was not good.It stands to reason that this gentleman of Rongguo Mansion grew up in Jinxiudui, a wealthy township. How could the weak disease brought out of the womb be ruined to the point where the pulse condition is so weak?

A few times ago, when he came to feel the pulse of Master Zhu, Imperial Physician Wang dared to try to persuade him, but now he closed his mouth tightly, and felt the pulse with both hands several times, but he couldn't come up with an accurate answer. .

Uncle Zhu is a respectful person, and the second wife who is in charge of the □□Guo Mansion is waiting aside with a blue face.Once upon a time, Imperial Physician Wang also thought that the second wife was a dignified and reasonable lady, who spoke kindly and gentle to others. It was not until Master Zhu became seriously ill that Imperial Physician Wang realized how unreasonable the second wife was.

Although those words were scolded by their own servants of the Jia family, Imperial Physician Wang is not a fool, how could he fail to understand the meaning of pointing at Sang and scolding Huai in those words.This time, Jia Zhu's situation was even worse. It seemed a little bit hard to get back, and Imperial Physician Wang really didn't want to see how our wives changed their faces and acted violently.

Looking at Mrs. Wang's face, Doctor Wang waited for Mr. Zheng to come, and the two of them avoided talking in private in the study, but he also knew that Mr. Zheng had nothing to worry about, so he might not know where to go to discuss with his disciples at this moment. The past discusses the present.After thinking about it for a while, Xu felt that he could not escape, finally coughed lightly, and said slowly: "Uncle Zhu's worries are still serious, and the last illness has not completely disappeared. Spleen, this time you must take care of it more, don't catch the wind before the spring of next year, I will prescribe a few medicines first, and eat it first."

Doctor Wang said it easily and naturally, but Mrs. Wang's face became more and more gloomy.

Because Doctor Wang is good at taking care of his body, the Rongguo Mansion has always loved him the most. When nothing happens, he will be prescribed some nourishing prescriptions, and he will take pills to strengthen the body and nourish the body. How to take a mere imperial physician to heart, but also have some understanding of Wang imperial physician's personality.

When Jia Zhu was young, Imperial Physician Wang often prescribed some pills for digestion and chewed them with him.After Jia Zhu was enlightened, Imperial Physician Wang often advised her to let Jia Zhu practice Wu Qin Xi Tai Chi Sword and other moves to strengthen her body.Even in the past two years, when Jia Zhu's study wasted a lot, Imperial Physician Wang would always say something like one or two.

This time it was all gone.Physician Wang even slowed down his tone, saying that he should not suffer from the wind before the beginning of spring, and only said to prescribe a few medicines first.This clearly means that he is seriously ill and cannot go out, and he dare not say that this prescription can cure him well!

Madam Wang desperately pinched the veil in her hand, and endured it for a long time before restraining herself from yelling at the quack doctor on the spot.She originally wanted to ask if Jia Zhu would have to rest in bed for half a year before she could recover, but seeing Jia Zhu leaning on the pillow and breathing weakly, she swallowed all her words and didn't ask when she would see her, for fear Jia Zhu is suspicious.In the end, she laughed a little, and in a slow manner, someone sent Wang Taiyi out, but she didn't mention a word about the red seal.

Physician Wang knew that he was being disliked, and he also felt that his medical skills were not good, so he didn't say much, and followed the respectful housekeeper Zhou Rui out with a kind face.It's just that as soon as he took the little apprentice outside the mansion, the big butler Lai Day who drove out the horse threw ashes all over his head and face, and even the clay figurine was a little bit angry.After returning to the Imperial Hospital, I heard people say that the Rongguo Mansion has invited seven or eight sages to check the pulse of their uncle Jia Zhu in the past few days, and two of them went there on the same day as him. Doctor Wang has no deep meaning among his colleagues He couldn't hold back in his eyes any longer, he gritted his teeth and ordered the subordinates, and if the servants from the second room of Rongfu came to invite them, they would not be free.

Mrs. Wang felt that Jia Zhu could not be cured because of Wang Tai's inexperienced medical skills, but the several famous doctors she invited in the name of her natal brother Wang Ziteng, even the imperial doctor, were also helpless against Jia Zhu's illness.

It's not that Jia Zhu's illness is so dangerous.In fact, Jia Zhu this time, except for making those ignorant women and girls dizzy for a while in the garden, there was no time for fainting. Rest and recuperation can't replenish energy, and I can only lie on the couch every day. I feel sleepy when I move a little, but I can't sleep well. Even an hour's sleep is too much, and I'm lazy in eating. How much The decoction was poured down, and acupuncture and moxibustion were tried several times, but none of them worked.

The doctors racked their brains and couldn't make up for Jia Zhu's background, and he himself was disheartened and rather lifeless. He even refused to see his pregnant wife Li Wan, and his mental illness and physical illness naturally made him lose his bones. stand.Later, he realized that he had repented, and had the intention of struggling to survive, but it was too late.

The last doctor who came to feel the pulse didn't even ask for a consultation fee, he just led his disciples away, obviously he was hopeless and refused to touch this mess again.It's a pity that his legs and feet were not fast enough, and he didn't have any strong backing. Not long after he left the mansion, he was found by Zhou Rui with a sullen face.

It was only at this time that Jia's mother knew that Jia Zhu was on the verge of dying.After all, she is an elderly person with all kinds of old people's illnesses on her body. Mrs. Wang always thinks that Jia Zhu will be well in the spring, and she always understates Jia Zhu's health in front of people. Tired from studying, Jia's mother didn't think about it. She was still waiting for Jia Zhu to raise her body to be a glorious ancestor, but she didn't expect her eldest grandson to survive such a field at such a young age.

Holding on to her breath so as not to faint, Jia's mother asked someone to call Jia She and his son.She didn't believe that Jia Zhu would go so early, she decided that the previous doctors were all quack doctors, and she decided to ask Jia Amnesty and them to invite another good one to treat Jia Zhu.

Mother Jia urged people to invite people, and Jia Amnesty naturally had a hard time going, but he didn't talk much when he came, and he would glance at Jia Lian when Jia Mu said a word.Anyway, the big house is now headed by his bastard son, and I don't have as many friends as my son. It just depends on whether Jia Lian is willing to get involved.

Jia Lian kept silent.Ever since Jia Zhu fell ill in the garden, he knew that something bad was going to happen this time, and he deliberately asked someone to find out what the doctor Wang said, knowing that Jia Zhu's illness looked soft, but in fact it was very dangerous and might be fatal.He also consulted with acquainted doctors, and knew that since Wang Tai's medicine is safe, it is the best policy to follow his prescription for a period of time before prescribing a new prescription.

Fearing that Mrs. Wang would delay the matter if she suspected that she had bad intentions, Jia Lian specially invited a famous doctor who had nothing to do with the Ningrong Second Mansion, and sent it to Mrs. Wang with Wang Ziteng's hand, reminding Mrs. Wang not to give it to him. Jia Zhu used drugs indiscriminately, and a doctor came to prescribe a prescription, and even the good people were eaten up.

Who knows Mrs. Wang didn't know whether she cared about chaos or something, so she just abandoned Wang's imperial physician's prescription and didn't say anything. Later, she saw that Jia Zhu was not doing well, and her medication was even more chaotic. Jia Lian mentioned it once, and saw Mrs. Wang's eyes showing hatred Also no longer speak.

At this moment when Jia's mother opened her mouth, Jia Lian's eyes moved slightly, and she calmly looked at Mrs. Wang with a slightly unnatural expression for a moment, then got up and responded, and invited Zhao Zhou and two imperial physicians back home.It's just that although the two imperial physicians came, they were unwilling to prescribe new prescriptions. It was Jia Mu who talked for a long time with tears in her eyes, and then the imperial physician Zhou wrote a worthless prescription for health maintenance. Eat and see, I don't want to say a word next to it.

Since that day, the sound of chanting sutras has never stopped in the Buddhist halls of Shangfang and Rongxitang. Li Wan, who was already a little pregnant, also struggled to get up. Talking with him and taking medicine before the bed, I also hoped in my heart that the child who is connected by flesh and blood in the abdomen can keep his father.

It's a pity that when Mrs. Wang made a great wish to build a golden body for the Bodhisattva, and forced Zhou Rui to withdraw part of the usury and send it to the temple outside the city, Jia Zhu, whose complexion was rarely rosy, had only eaten a bowl of porridge, Leaning on the side of the pillow, I quietly lost my breath.

When the news spread, Mrs. Wang was walking towards Jia Zhu's yard holding Zhou Rui's family's hand, and immediately passed out on Zhou Rui's family when she heard the news.Jia Zheng hadn't had time to go to the outer study room, he couldn't utter a word for a long time with his lips shaking, and went to the upper room with a pale face, suppressing his grief to comfort his uncontrollable old mother.As far as Jia Zheng is concerned, Jia Zhu wasted too much in order to study and died young. Although it is heartbreaking, he can be regarded as his good son after all, and he has not insulted his family.

The heart and soul of the whole mansion were all lost, Jia She in the east courtyard ignored it, Jia Lian went out of the mansion again and disappeared, the Rongguo mansion was in chaos for half a day, and even the eldest grandma Li Wan was in the wing room as if she had lost her soul Sitting until the whole body was cold, it was only in the afternoon that a little girl suddenly saw it, and randomly dragged a doctor who came to see the old lady and the wife, and prescribed anti-fetal medicine for Li Wan.

When Jia Lian came back when it was time to hold the lanterns, white flags had already been hung inside and outside the Rongguo Mansion, and the crying in the backyard was loud.Even though he knew that such a day would come, Jia Lian still couldn't help feeling sad, went back to the yard and hurriedly changed his clothes, and then began to do his best to help Jia Zhu with the last major event in his life.

The evening before Jia Zhu's coffin was moved to the family temple outside the city, Xing'er, who was wrapped in a white cloth on her head, walked into the mourning hall with a low eyebrow and pleasing eyes. While pouring tea, she walked up to Jia Lian's side and whispered a message.

The He family agreed.
