doctor knife in hand

Emperor Wen of Chu was completely satisfied with Song Heng's trip to Jiangzhou. He quickly raised his hand to let Song Heng stand up, and said proudly: "I am completely assured of you. I am disappointed."

Eunuch Ying took the military talisman and zhezi, and presented the zhezi to Emperor Wen of Chu.

He already knew the content of the booklet, which was a summary of the suppression of bandits and the arrest of colluding officials. Emperor Wen of Chu took a rough look at it, and smiled at the end: "Such a big credit is given to Yang and his party and Wang Wang." Peng, I didn't mention myself in the whole article, Ah Heng, it makes me wonder what to say about you!"

Song Heng stood up resolutely, and said quite boldly: "This is a secret act. The emperor has made a decision in his heart. It doesn't matter whether he mentions it or not."

Emperor Wen of Chu laughed and scolded on the spot: "The king of Qi welcomes you outside the city, how can it be called a secret? Well, for the heroes, if I don't reward them, I will be in debt. Even Wang Peng has it. How can I miss you? Give you a chance to talk about what you want?"

"Haven't you already rewarded it?"

Emperor Wen of Chu frowned and asked doubtfully, "When?"

Song Heng said: "I have taken a fancy to a doctor who is very capable, but he is guilty of crimes, so he shouldn't and cannot practice medicine. It's just that I think it's dangerous to suppress bandits. If there is him in the army, there will be more hope for the soldiers to survive. Therefore, you asked him to board the ship to treat the wounded soldiers that night, and you have already asked him to absolve him of the crime, and recruited him as a doctor accompanying the army, and gave him a seventh-rank official position."

In this way, Emperor Wen of Chu had some impressions. Eunuch Ying leaned into his ear and said it again in detail, and he remembered it, waved his hands and said, "It is not unforgivable to be convicted because of the father. The sin on his body is also deserved, but it is a trivial matter, how can it be considered a reward."

However, Song Heng smiled, his eyes flickered, and his expression was extremely happy. He said: "But this is not a trivial matter for the minister. The soldiers under the minister's command, because of the lack of medicine and medicine, do not know how many casualties on the battlefield. If there is such a A doctor with excellent medical skills is willing to follow, and can reduce the number of casualties among soldiers, which makes me more happy than any reward, so this is enough, and the emperor doesn't need to worry about it."

That being the case, Emperor Wen of Chu didn't say anything more, but he still rewarded some gold, silver and jewelry for comfort, and Song Heng thanked him.

"The memorial is not very detailed, tell me about the situation of suppressing bandits."

So Song Heng started from rescuing Yang and his party in a concise and concise manner, to the frightening night of fighting in Yangjiang, and finally got the list and took down the officials involved. He explained them one by one, and did not forget to ask Jiangzhou General to protect him in the name of imperial envoy. The process of luring the enemy's ship.

The emperor is not a fool, if he gave credit to Yang Xingxing and Wang Peng when he came to the imperial court, it would be too fake and hypocritical.

"You're cute." Emperor Wen of Chu also understood what Song Heng was thinking, but he didn't dislike Song Heng's behavior, so he said this with a smile.

Song Heng slightly raised his eyebrows, displaying the arrogance of a young man, "I don't tell lies."

Emperor Wen of Chu laughed, and turned to the memorial on the dragon case, "This list involves a lot. The government and the public are trying to find a way to clean themselves up. I'm afraid it won't stop there."

Song Heng didn't care much, "It's useless even if you come here, the list is clearly written, I really don't know how I can help you?"

That's not necessarily the case, the list is a list, and there are times when you get on a pirate ship by mistake. As long as there is no conclusive evidence, after all, there are still few letters with the name of the seal. Isn't this just making big things smaller?Officials who were able to step up to Beijing were not stupid, so how could they leave too obvious a clue.

Jiangzhou was far away after all, and the emperor's decisions were mostly based on the imperial envoys who returned to Beijing, but no one of the imperial envoys took it seriously, and all fools knew that the only person who could really talk to the emperor was Song Heng.

But for so many years, Emperor Wen of Chu also knew about Song Heng's character, so he didn't worry about anything, so he dismissed it, but then suddenly asked another sentence, "Is this list complete?"

Hearing this, Song Heng frowned, he didn't understand the meaning of Emperor Chu Wen's question.While thinking, he looked up at the emperor, but found that although he spoke in a joking tone, there was a stern look in his eyes, but the sternness was not aimed at him.

In the end, he couldn't figure out why, so he could only answer truthfully, "This is the copy that was found together with the letter from the secret room of the water village, and it should be complete."

Emperor Wen of Chu was silent for a while, and finally sighed softly, "Forget it, he's quite peaceful..."

Who is he referring to?Song Heng turned his face slightly, but he didn't expect the corresponding person, so he had to remain silent.

For a while, a needle could be heard in the hall.

After half a cup of tea, Emperor Wen of Chu suddenly said, "Ah Heng, do you know that the crown prince is ill again."

Song Heng replied: "I have heard about it."

Emperor Wen of Chu suddenly asked playfully, "Why did you say he was sick?"

"I heard that the elder Liuge is sick at home."

Emperor Wen of Chu looked at him fixedly, "Why did Shangshu Liu complain about illness?"

"A few days ago, Master Yang impeached his favorite student and son-in-law, plus Liu Wenhe, Liu Wenyu, Liu Zhimao... It seems that the Liu family is not on the list." Song Heng said without hesitation.

"Didn't you mean it?"

Song Heng raised his head and said strangely, "What does it have to do with me? It's not me who impeached you."

Emperor Wen of Chu snorted, "You know what you know."

Song Heng said: "When Master Yang was writing the scriptures, the minister was by his side."

Emperor Wen of Chu had a playful look on his face, "Oh, you don't want to stop it? The Liu family is the prince's wife family."

Song Heng sneered, "This kind of wives who are holding back? Master Yang can be impeached as he wants, and I support him."

Well, whether it matters or not is out now.

Emperor Wen of Chu shook his head, and didn't bother to ask any more, but one thing was true, Song Heng didn't like the troubles of the Liu family.

That's right, compared to his own wife, Emperor Wen of Chu did choose a poorer choice for the prince.

"Before you went south, you said Jiangnan to see if there is anyone who can cure the prince's illness in name, but have you found someone?"

Speaking of this, a serious young man appeared in front of Song Heng's eyes. He slightly bent his lips and said, "I don't know if he can do it. He said he must meet the prince first."

Emperor Chu Wen's heart moved, "Who? Could it be the one who just pardoned... what's his name?"

When he turned his head to look for Eunuch Ying's name, he heard Song Heng say, "Lu Jin."

Emperor Wen of Chu looked solemn, looked at Song Heng and confirmed, "Can he really cure the prince?"

The prince is the only child left by his wife. Emperor Wen of Chu is grateful for the queen and does not want to shake his position. After a hundred years, he also hopes that the prince can take over his mantle.

However, how a sick and weak body can support a huge country, so Emperor Wen of Chu has been hesitating. If someone can give the prince a healthy body, he can let go of training the prince and cultivate a qualified prince.

This matter is so important that Emperor Wen of Chu couldn't believe it.

Sure enough, seeing Song Heng hesitated, he said: "After all, the minister's dictation is not detailed enough. He needs to feel the pulse of the prince himself. Your majesty, he is at the minister's house. I want to bring him to meet the prince tomorrow. Please allow me."

Not only Emperor Wen of Chu was concerned about the prince's illness, but Song Heng was even more worried. After all, who doesn't want the future emperor to be his nephew.

Emperor Wen of Chu agreed, and he reassured Song Heng for the same reason.

"That's right."

After Song Heng thanked him, Eunuch Ying carefully reminded: "Your Majesty, it's almost time for lunch, and the imperial concubine sent someone to ask if you want to order the imperial dining room to deliver the meal to Yushu Palace."

Emperor Wen of Chu glanced at Song Heng, and said flatly: "I still want to let Ah Heng talk."

Eunuch Ying immediately knew about it, and responded again and again: "Yes, this old slave will send someone to Yushu Palace to say something." Then he smiled, "The emperor is busy with business, and Yingying Gong finally went to the palace. Dinner here?"

Emperor Wen of Chu nodded his head this time, "Alright, since I haven't seen Ah Heng for a long time, Ah Heng will have dinner with me."

But Song Heng really wanted to go back to the house. Speaking of Lu Jin, it was the first time he had invited someone to live in his house, but the owner was still away, which seemed not the way to treat guests.

Especially that young man whom he thought was his good friend Song Steward, Song Heng was a little worried when he thought about it, and an honest person like Lu Jin might be overwhelmed.

However, there was no way to refuse the emperor's order, so Song Heng could only pretend to be honored and happy to thank him, "I entered the city early in the morning, but the water and rice haven't entered yet. I am indeed hungry. Thank you, Your Majesty."

Emperor Wen of Chu showed a smile on his face, and said reminiscingly: "When you were a little old, A Yuan often announced you into the palace, just like raising a son. In a blink of an eye, you are thirty, and I am old. You say How long has it been since you dined with me?"

"It's been a long time, but I'm away all the year round and I can't help myself. Fortunately, there is no war now. If the emperor is free and doesn't feel annoying, I will come to the palace to accompany you for dinner? Anyway, the Duke's Mansion is also close to the palace gate, but I’m afraid the ladies in the harem won’t like it.” Song Heng made Emperor Wen of Chu laugh out loud with his joking words, pointing at him and sighing, “Who is like you who is still a bachelor at [-]? When is the order?"

Song Heng paused, and then asked: "Brother-in-law, which son is willing?"

Emperor Wen of Chu's face darkened, and he almost kicked him.

Also because of Song Heng's spirit, this lunch was relatively easy.

To be honest, although Emperor Wen of Chu was his brother-in-law, he was too old. At that time, he and the queen had no children, and the concubine Wang Guifei was just a concubine. Also like a son.Even Song Heng's treatment was much higher than that of the prince, and with less restraint, the meal was delicious.

After having lunch with Emperor Wen of Chu, Song Heng was relieved to finally be able to return home.

Eunuch Ying sent him out all the way, and said with a smile: "The emperor hasn't added a second bowl for a long time in these years, and the Duke of the country has a way."

"It's the same. I don't have any elders. The emperor has been older than me for a long time. Although he is a brother-in-law, he can still be regarded as an elder, right?" Song Heng looked at Ying Gong fairly, "So you always watched me grow up."

"Don't you dare?" Eunuch Ying waved his hands again and again, but the smiles on his face grew even more.

Song Heng suddenly approached and asked: "Eunuch, do you know who the emperor was referring to? It seems a pity that he is not in that list."

Eunuch Ying blinked, just smiled and didn't speak.

So Song Heng didn't force others, "Eunuch, take care of your health, so I'll take my leave first."

Eunuch Ying nodded with a smile as before, but the moment Song Heng turned his head, he saw a number - nine.

There is no Nine Princes in the Holy One today...

Suddenly Song Heng remembered - King Cheng.

The ninth son of the first emperor was granted the title of King Cheng, and now he should be called Old King Cheng, and the current King Cheng is his son.But to make Emperor Wen of Chu so fearful, it was obviously not so easy when he was fighting for the throne.

However, what happened at that time was too far away from Song Heng, so he didn't know, but he did know one thing. During his reign, Emperor Wen of Chu never stopped suppressing King Cheng's family. It can be said that he tried his best to reduce his title. He was dismissed from his post, and a large part of Song Heng's military power was taken from him by Emperor Wen of Chu.

It seems that Cheng Wangfu also knows that he is not welcomed by the current emperor, even hostile, so until now he has behaved with his tail between his legs, and it is difficult to see him appearing in the capital.

Even so, Emperor Wen of Chu had to send people to beat it from time to time, and sent people to the mansion to monitor.

Although he is a prince, he is extremely aggrieved.

Of course, the life and death of King Cheng has nothing to do with Song Heng. After all, if he was the one who took over the throne at the beginning, it is the Chu Wendi family who are now worried about the quail.

What made him suddenly concerned was that Lu Jin's eldest sister was married to King Cheng in this way.
