The eldest brother of the Lin family in the Red Chamber

Ever since Imperial Physician Song accepted Lin Che as his apprentice, he was also very happy in his heart. He had worked with Lin Qing in the early years and knew Lin Qing's ability. Lin Che was also diligent and smart.What's more, Marquis Jingyuan personally brought his younger brother to kowtow to him to worship his teacher, which is also decent.In any case, for Lin Che, a child of such an aristocratic family, to follow him is also the affirmation of his medical skills by the superiors.It's just that when Concubine Yuan quietly revealed her desire to win over Lin Che, he also thought for a moment that she should be wise and protect herself.

The most taboo thing for imperial doctors in imperial hospitals is to have any involvement with concubines.Who knows what the people in the deep palace compound are thinking?Who knows when those beautiful women will show hideous expressions?But Lin Che was different. He was born in the Lin family, and he was proficient in medicine and poisons.Back then, the ancestors of the Lin family saw with the naked eye that Taizu was poisoned by the princess of the former court, saved the life of the emperor Taizu, and resigned from office and returned to his hometown.As for the two brothers Cao Yuan and Cao Yan who made military exploits back then, there are many rumors that these two brothers poisoned Emperor Yang of the previous dynasty, and even the youngest brother who was appointed by Taizu to appease the people of the previous dynasty was said to be these two. Move your hands according to the holy will.

Physicians of the Song Dynasty have always been cautious in their words and deeds. Now the harem is not as bloody as it was in the time of the Supreme Emperor. Cousin, let alone Lin Che.

Lin Che didn't answer anything, so he turned around and asked for leave to go home. A few days later, the servants of Jingyuanhou Mansion sent him an invitation card.

He originally thought that it was the Marquis of Jingyuan who wanted to invite him, but when he arrived at the Marquis' mansion, Lin Che was alone, sitting on the small plum grove in the garden. Wearing a purple and gold crown inlaid with jade, looking from a distance, it almost blends with the white, yellow, and red plum blossoms in the garden, making it even more youthful, innocent, and extravagant.

"Master, please sit down." Lin Che greeted him out of the pavilion and asked Imperial Physician Song to sit down.Seeing the four maidservants behind him, all of whom bowed their heads in a respectful manner without speaking, Imperial Physician Song felt a little contempt in his heart: "You haven't been to the Imperial Hospital for several days?" Lin Che smiled and tore open a small wine The red paper seal on the altar: "I was going to tell my master that my mother has actually returned to Shandong, but my brother and sister-in-law heard something and asked me to stay at home for a few days. I am really sorry that I couldn't go to ask my master for leave."

"Why?" The Lin family really does not lack the salary of the Imperial Hospital, nor the dignity of the Imperial Physician. Shan Ren Tang is very kind and generous, and the Lin family's children are kind-hearted and skilled in medicine. Wherever they go, their names are Signboards, there is no need to go out and say "I am a medical officer" like they do.But now that Lin Che has entered the Tai Hospital, she has been diligent and conscientious, and she really doesn't seem to be a willful person.

Lin Che said with a smile: "Brother said, I have never heard of a situation where a noble concubine's maid of honor came to see a young imperial doctor. I haven't engaged yet, and reputation is important."

Physician Song thought belatedly, it seemed that Concubine Jingyuan and Concubine Yuan had conflicts in the past.

That day the King of Jingning County followed Princess Hui Dachang into the palace, refused to greet the noble concubine bluntly, and said such rebellious words as "I didn't talk about relatives from the concubine's room", but unexpectedly, in the end it was Concubine Xiande who was killed Forbidden.Princess Hehui has a very high reputation in the clan. After all, age and seniority are placed there. When the princess is there, even the Supreme Emperor will love Jingning County Lord a little bit more. But I didn't expect that the princess returned to Shandong and was married. Is Kong Shi who is a woman still so bold?

Lin Zi stretched out and suddenly turned around a few little girls. They were not very old, and they were wearing all-colored light yellow padded jackets and light green cotton trousers. Set the wine set, returned to the stone table, washed their hands to warm the wine, and the maids did not leave, collecting the dew from the plum blossoms, listening to Lin Che's orders at any time.

"Third Master, Sister Yun Xi asked, are the snacks ready?" a girl asked in a soft voice.

Imperial Physician Song couldn't help but sighed: "You are living a happy life. If I am like you, with so many people serving me, I don't lack food or flowers, I won't be bothered to be on duty."

Lin Che said calmly: "Master, try it. This is the wine from my hometown. Brother Kong sent it over last time. The name of this wine is Meihuaquan. It is brewed from Baotu Spring water. It tastes quite soft. My elder brother likes it." To drink this, I told my sister-in-law that the master has always been good at wine, so I need to prepare some strong wine, but my sister-in-law said that the master will be on duty tomorrow, so I should drink something light, this wine tastes very good, master ,please."

"When I first entered the imperial hospital, your father also welcomed me with a plum blossom spring." Imperial Physician Song took a sip, "The taste is not quite the same as back then."

"Every brewing method is different," Lin Che replied, "Father also mentioned the master. I was young at the time, so I don't remember it clearly, but my elder brother remembered it. He told me that the relationship between father and master was broken. Even if I look at my father, my master will surely keep me safe, and with my master around, he dares to let me wander among strangers with no familiarity in my life."

Doctor Song's heart trembled, and he looked up at Lin Che. Seeing that he still had a simple and innocent smile, he couldn't help but think that this little apprentice was Mr. Lin's son. hospital's.Young Lord Lin has gained a firm foothold now. He doesn't know much about this son of a good friend who did not continue to practice medicine, but he has met many high-ranking officials and nobles. Everyone said that Lord Lin is good-looking He has a good temperament and means, but one by one cannot tell what kind of means or temperament he has.He had never seen Lin Er, the third son of the Lin family, but it was not easy to look at Lin San.

"I invite the master to come here today, and there is another matter. My sister has a slight lack of energy and blood due to her parents' health. Thinking that the master is an expert in this field, I ask the master to help my sister take a look and prescribe a prescription. "

If it is about invigorating qi and nourishing blood, Physician Song really dare not call himself an expert in front of the Lin family, but since his apprentice has paved the steps, he, as a master, of course can't belittle himself and respond casually.

Lin Che smiled and clapped her hands. The little girls behind her were busy warming up the wine, their hands and feet were quick, and they didn't even hear the slightest sound between serving the food and pouring the wine.Song Taiyi said: "I heard from the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs that they trained the little maids until they couldn't hear the sound of playing the disk on the stone table. I was thinking, if this is the case, how boring it would be. I don’t think your family is much worse.”

"These girls didn't belong to my family. They were originally given as dowry to my sister-in-law by the palace. They look young, but they are actually quite old." Lin Che said, "Because they are young, the palace didn't give them any status. No female officials, I didn’t bring a few maids with me this trip, and my sister-in-law’s kindness is hard to refuse, so I’ll use it.” Princess Hehui will marry her beloved granddaughter as a dowry female official, anyone can guess, but the queen also rewarded it. It's intriguing, but the little maid who is rewarded with no status and not enough to support the county lord does not look like marrying a niece, as if she is concentrating on marrying a wife for Lord Hou.

Doctor Song was thinking about the minds of these nobles, it was really hard to guess, and at the same time, he suddenly remembered that the little apprentice he had always thought was soft and deceitful, after all, he was actually a royal relative who beat around the bush.

After eating the wine and smelling the aroma of wintersweet for a while, the little girls served tea. Lin Che personally served Song Taiyi after drinking the tea, and then called a little girl: "Go and tell Mother Wang that I will Accompany master to show sister body."

"Yes." The little girl replied and went into the garden.

Physician Song settled down, followed Lin Che through a few small paths, and entered a small courtyard with five entrances. Although it was quiet here, it was sunny and extremely warm. The boudoir did not dare to make a fuss, and he couldn't help but think that the Lin family really had a lot of money in health preservation, and some people were getting nervous like a gangster.It's just that the children of the Lin family are still young, they started to read medical books when they were born in the womb, how many symptoms can they see now?What's more, Lin Qing left early, so it's really a pity that the children lack a teacher who can teach them their lessons and solve their doubts.

Entering the yard, I saw a dozen little girls with long hair standing in the room, dressed in colorful clothes, doing needlework together. Seeing Lin Che coming in, she hurriedly got up to say hello, but Lin Che didn't say anything, but threw Put the copper coins on the table: "Sister Zijuan doesn't allow you to play? Just lower your head at noon, be careful of neck pain, the girl is inside?" The little girls thanked the third master with a smile, and pushed them into the back room.

Daiyu had already changed into the clothes for meeting guests and was sitting on the bed. Zijuan waited by the bed and put down the curtains. Physician Song and Lin Che came in, only to see two short coats and jackets with light purple embroidered pink flowers The little girl stood in front of the bed, hurriedly lowered her head, Xueyan said softly: "Girl, the third master and his master are here."

"Mr. Lao Song will come to visit personally. It's cold, snow geese, make tea for sir." Physician Song only heard a soft and gentle female voice, and hurriedly said: "I've already had tea, the girl's health is important, How about the old man give the girl a pulse first?"

"Sir, it's hard work taking care of the third younger brother on weekdays, but now he's running this trip for me, and we don't want to have a cup of tea to rest our feet. How can we feel sorry for it?"

The snow geese had already brought the tea, but the Song imperial physician even said no, and asked for pulse first, Zijuan carefully raised the curtain, revealing a hand, slender and white, but lacking a little blood color, Zijuan carefully held it. After putting on the two square scarves, he turned to invite Song Taiyi.

Physician Song examined the pulse and felt that it was indeed a lack of qi and blood and weakness of the heart and lungs, but he did take good care of it, and now he is much better than before: "Mr. Lin was an expert in this field back then, can the girl take medicine on weekdays? "

"I used to eat medicine as food, but after a while, my uncle took care of it, and now I only eat medicine food. I eat Sydney cream when I cough." Zijuan answered for her.

Physician Song stroked her beard, knowing that the medicinal food recipe was the Lin family's secret recipe, so it was not necessary, so she said: "The Lin family is very knowledgeable, and I can't match it. According to the old man, the girl often sweats at night on weekdays, and feels dry mouth. Difficulty falling asleep?"

Wang Momo said happily, "Sir, you are a miracle doctor!"

"If the old man sees it, the girl's energy and blood are insufficient, and she has to be raised with bird's nest from time to time. It's just that the pear cream is cold, and there are many warming and tonic things in the medicinal diet on weekdays. This is the result of the conflict between the two. I I would like to persuade the girl that the incense in the room should be light. If you cough and take Pipalu Sydney Cream, you can stop taking the medicine for the day. The girl's qi and blood are almost replenished, and the symptoms of body cold, I think Lord Hou is also taking care of it well, although the medicinal food is a good thing, it is not a problem to stop for a while now and then."

Lin Che hurriedly wrote it down, and asked Zijuan in a low voice: "Is it possible that the herbal diet my sister eats has always been the same prescription? Let alone other things, I am tired of eating. Even if the elder brother is not free, you will not call me Change the recipe?"

Daiyu smiled and said: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome. I didn't take that medicinal diet every day. Looking at it now, Mr. Song really has superb medical skills. The third brother follows you, and my uncle who died early can rest assured. Mr. Qiu treats you sincerely like the third younger brother treats you, and everyone in the Lin family will be grateful."

Even a well-informed and knowledgeable doctor like Song Taiyi would never have thought that a weak girl who had not yet left the cabinet would beat him so softly and softly.

The Lin family is indeed not simple.
