The Prosperity of Jingdi Chronicle

Chapter 16 Good medicine is bitter

As soon as Jing Li came down from the morning court, the servant waiting outside the Golden Palace reported to him that the Marquis of Yongning was ill.

Of course he remembered the good deeds he did last night, but Wei Yan's body has never been so delicate, and when he did it, he had spared some strength after all, so he didn't expect the consequences to be so serious, and he no longer cared about the original plan at the moment After the next court, I will go to the Queen Mother's palace to pay her respects, and hurried back to the palace.

When he went back, Imperial Physician Tian had already come over to prescribe Guomai, and even the medicine was fried and delivered. Wei Yan was half leaning on the couch, worrying about the medicine bowl in his hand.

Since Wei Yan went out for a few years, after going through a lot of tempering, his temper has changed a lot. Many small tempers in the past, even in front of him who is as close as him, will not be used again. It has been a long time since Jing Li has not seen Wei Yan. Yan showing this kind of expression, for no reason lost a lot of fun. Now that he sees his old ways, he is nostalgic and worried, and he is distracted to listen to the report of Wei Yan's condition, so he didn't find out in time. reason.

Taking a cold bath in winter, which abused his body, was discovered by the emperor, and it would definitely make him die a miserable death, so Wei Yan just turned around in his head at the time, and finally he didn't dare to take action, he couldn't think about it Under the circumstances, he could only pretend to be sick.

But pretending to be sick is a technical job, especially when facing Tian Taiyi, a member of the Qihuang family, the technical requirements are very high.

Although Wei Yan knew a lot about the situation when he was ill, he still couldn't pretend to be a real illness when he was not ill. Doctor Tian probably understood what was wrong when he took a pulse.

Although for some reason, Imperial Physician Tian did not expose his lies on the spot, but Imperial Physician Tian may have complained about being forced to participate in deceiving the emperor, or simply disliked his behavior, and wanted to give him A lesson, the amount of Coptis chinensis in this bowl of medicine is absolutely sufficient, Wei Yan's face sank after taking a sip, and he never dared to take a second sip easily.

When the emperor came in, he saw this scene.

"How old are you, are you still afraid of taking medicine?"

When Wei Yan heard the emperor sitting on the couch and making sarcastic remarks, it would definitely be hard for him to express, unless he could tell the emperor that he was pretending to be sick, so Doctor Tian was taking the opportunity to punish him.

It's a pity that he can't, so he has to drink this medicine, and he has to drink it if he doesn't drink it.

Then, Jing Li saw Wei Yan pouring down the bowl of medicine with a generous expression. He was amused, but he was a little confused. After Wei Yan finished using the medicine and fell asleep, he ordered someone to take it to the doctor Only then did I understand the reason.

Although he is not proficient in Qihuang art, he still knows how to use several commonly used medicinal materials.

Wei Yan's symptoms, according to him, are dizziness, dry mouth, phlegm in the throat, and weakness in the hands and feet. It is obvious that he is suffering from a cold. Logically speaking, he should prescribe a medicine for sweating and dispelling the cold, but the imperial physician Tian In this prescription, except for Coptis chinensis, the rest are mild conditioning herbs, but the dosage of Coptis chinensis is obviously too high.

Imperial Physician Tian is the Chief Imperial Physician who is responsible for taking the emperor's pulse and treating illnesses. With decades of experience in medical practice, there may be only one reason for prescribing such an unreasonable prescription, and that is——Wei Yan's illness is weird.

Jing Li ordered people to withdraw the medical case, carefully looked at the person next to him who was still frowning while he was asleep, and couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "You idiot asking for trouble."

The reason why Wei Yan pretended to be sick, he knew in his heart, must have something to do with what happened last night.However, due to some unspeakable hobbies, he decided not to expose Wei Yan's little trick for the time being, but to cooperate with all his strength to see how far Wei Yan can do it.

If Wei Yan wants to achieve his goal, he will definitely try his best to show weakness and act coquettishly and try his best to pester him, so as to have a chance to change his mind. In this case, during this period of time, Wei Yan will definitely not care about the Wei family, Wei Minwen, Luzhu and others, and will not even take care of him. There will be official business to disturb, this kind of opportunity is rare, how can he destroy it by himself foolishly, as for whether Wei Yan can achieve his goal, he does not believe that he will be defeated by Wei Yan's Huairou policy , Let him succeed easily, and definitely can have fun with Wei Yan for a few days.

Jing Li had a good plan in his mind, so he was happy to take care of Wei Yan who was sick. He didn't go anywhere all afternoon, and kept going around Wei Yan, bringing tea and water to ask his health. I took it to the couch to correct it.

Without any effort, Wei Yan achieved the goal of entangled the emperor, so that the emperor could not get out, and immediately put his absurd idea into action, but seeing the expression of the emperor enjoying it, he would occasionally smile Glancing at him, he still felt that something was wrong. After thinking about it carefully, he couldn't figure out where the problem was.

Hounding the emperor was the first step, and getting the emperor to change his mind was the ultimate goal, so he soon had no time to worry about what was wrong, but racked his brains to think of a solution.

Soon, by dinner time, he knew something was wrong.

After dinner, after a cup of tea, another servant came in with a cup of medicine.

Only then did Wei Yan realize that if he wanted to pretend to be sick, it would mean that he would have to take this life-threatening medicine for three meals a day. I really don't know how many days he can last, but when things come to an end, he has no way out , I could only bite the bullet and close my eyes, pouring the medicine into my stomach.

"If it's too bitter, drink less." To be honest, Jing Li doesn't dare to blatantly offend Imperial Physician Tian. If Imperial Physician Tian knows that he has ruined his good deeds, he will be petty and give Wei Yan a forbidden room every now and then to nourish his health. The prescription made him often live a life where he could only watch but not eat, he would definitely collapse, but at this time, facing Wei Yan's bitter face, he still felt compassionate, and Tian Taiyi did not drink the prescription. No, it should be fine to drink less.

"If you don't take the medicine, how can you get better sooner?" Wei Yan replied smoothly, unaware that it would be more appropriate for him to talk to the emperor in reverse.

Wei Yan's words are so serious, but it can't reduce the bitterness of the medicine in his hand.

He could only try to comfort himself in his heart, as long as the emperor could change his mind in the end, it would not be in vain for him to suffer like this.

The second dose of medicine, it took a lot of hard work to finish it. Wei Yan rinsed his mouth several times and put another candied fruit in his mouth. He still felt bitter on the tip of his tongue and uncomfortable in his stomach, so he could only lie there weakly, not wanting at all. move.

Jing Li originally wanted to see him laughing at his self-seeking behavior, and planned to enjoy his gentle methods, but seeing how uncomfortable he is now, she still feels distressed.

"Tian imperial physician is very skilled in medicine. After drinking the medicine, you will be cured tomorrow." With Tian imperial physician present, pretending to be sick is definitely shooting himself in the foot. Imperial Physician Tian did not have time to accompany him, so he dared to play the trick of pretending to be sick. When he arrived in Beijing, he fell into the hands of Imperial Physician Tian. Under the imperial doctor's hands, he is definitely a good baby who takes medicine on time.

At this time, Jing Li kindly reminded Wei Yan that it is better to accept it as soon as it is good.Although he privately thought it was a pity that Wei Yan would be "sick" for a day, but if Tian Taiyi continued to drink this medicine, he suspected that even if Wei Yan was not sick, he would still get sick from drinking it.

Wei Yan lay on his stomach without speaking, obviously still determined.

After finally passing the level of taking medicine, when it was time to go to bed, someone did something bad again.

For fear that he would blame the emperor for his illness, the servants strongly objected to the emperor sleeping with him.

Hearing this, Wei Yan was dumbfounded for a moment.

His sole purpose of pretending to be sick was to keep pestering the emperor until the emperor softened and took pity on him, so that he could wait for the opportunity to do something, but he didn't expect that there would be such a thing.

If he was really seriously ill, for the sake of the emperor's health, he would not dare to keep the emperor, but he is obviously not sick now.

And why did no one think it was inappropriate for the emperor to stay with him for an afternoon and a night, but when it was bedtime, some people thought it was inappropriate?

Seeing that Wei Yan was so depressed that he couldn't speak, Jing Li was secretly happy. On the surface, he naturally pretended to be serious, and rebuked the left and right with a straight face, which immediately won Wei Yan's countless gratitude.

It is a rule in the palace that concubines need to move to rest when they are ill, and they are not allowed to share the same room with the emperor, but this "sex room" does not refer to each other, but to serve the emperor with their bodies.

As long as the emperor himself doesn't care about the rules in the palace, there will never be people who don't have eyesight. He ran to Wei Yan and said that this time so many people collectively don't have eyesight, it is obviously from the emperor's instruction.

But Wei Yan didn't know about it, and thought that the emperor had broken the rules for him again, and sent his gratitude in vain.

"How do I treat you?" Seeing that everyone was going down, Jing Li leaned forward, bit Wei Yan's earlobe, and laughed softly.

"Well." The emperor has reached this point, so Wei Yan is naturally not ashamed to mention it again, he is still sick, I hope the emperor can restrain this kind of lie, relax his body obediently, and let him mess around.

There was no court meeting the next day, so Jing Li hurriedly went to the imperial study to discuss some important matters, and then sent everyone away.

When he returned to the bedroom, Imperial Physician Tian was inquiring and taking his pulse.

"How is Hou Ye feeling today? Did you feel better after taking the medicine yesterday?" Imperial Physician Tian asked while feeling his pulse.

"It's still about the same as yesterday."

A certain person who has never changed his mind, it seems that he didn't take his reminder last night to heart, and he is still stubborn, talking nonsense, and Jing Li is secretly shocked when he hears it.

"Since that's the case, strong medicine is needed for serious illness. Today's prescription needs to be increased in dose." How can Tian Taiyi be easy-going? Even the emperor sometimes has nothing to do with him, how can the little Wei Yan be able to deal with it? When he heard that he hadn't learned his lesson yet and wanted to continue pretending to be sick, he didn't even bat an eye, and said something that made Wei Yan lose all color in an instant.

"Your Majesty..." Imperial Physician Tian went out to prescribe the prescription after saluting the emperor. Wei Yan looked pitifully at the emperor standing by the couch, and spoke weakly, with pleading in his eyes.

"I'll go out and have a look." Jing Li couldn't guarantee that he would be able to deal with Imperial Physician Tian. Wei Yan's body still needed to be recuperated by Imperial Physician Tian, ​​and Wei Yan's behavior deserved to be taught a lesson. He didn't have the confidence to fight Tian. The imperial doctor was upset by this kind of thing, so he had to try his best.

In the outer hall, Imperial Physician Tian quickly wrote the prescription and presented it for a look. Sure enough, it was still a gentle conditioning prescription, but the dose of Coptis chinensis was twice as much as yesterday's.

"Get rid of Coptis chinensis." Jing Li held the prescription in his hand, pondered for a moment, and spoke directly.

"Your Majesty, good medicine tastes bitter." Imperial Physician Tian replied neither humble nor overbearing, without any intention of modifying the prescription.

"Forget it, I don't care about him, Tian Aiqing, you just let him go, and I will talk about him later." Obviously, compared to the crime of deceiving the emperor, cheating the imperial physician is only a small mistake.

"Your Majesty, the medicine is three-point poisonous. You must teach the Marquis a lesson for his behavior of pretending to be sick and taking medicine for fun, so that he can remember it. Your Majesty should not indulge him." Doctor Tian was very dissatisfied with that little trick, but still indulged him for no reason, but at the emperor's insistence, he finally changed the prescription.

Many of Wei Yan's various problems were directly caused by the emperor, and some of them were already there, and only became worse when he was around the emperor.Originally, based on the experience of normal people, all kinds of problems when young will be corrected unconsciously as they grow older, experience more, and change their identity.

However, when Wei Yan met the emperor, he didn't know whether it was luck or misfortune. He took care of his boss and spoiled him with boundless pampering. He made a good adult and made countless children's problems.

Wei Yan has been away for several years, experienced many things, and he has obviously made great progress in his actions after he came back. Doctor Tian thought that all his problems were cured, but now it seems that as long as the emperor is by his side, those problems that he healed will be guaranteed. There is no time for relapse.

What happened at this time is the proof.You're not a child, how can you pretend to be sick for fun?The emperor was even better, knowing that he was pretending, but still acting as if he believed in it, and helping him solve the troubles he couldn't solve, really what kind of pot should match the lid.

"Then, Your Majesty, do you know how long the Marquis is going to be sick this time?" If Marquis Yongning is going to be ill for a long time, Imperial Physician Tian is thinking about whether he should find an excuse and ask for a period of leave.

Having such a patient as Marquis Yongning who has not improved for a long time under his meticulous diagnosis and treatment is simply a disgrace to his name, and he really can't afford to lose this person.

Immediately, he decided that if the emperor intended to condone Marquis Yongning's long-term illness, he would go far away and come out of sight.

"Well, by the time of the Longevity Festival, he should be cured." Although Jing Li is pampering Wei Yan, he won't really go on pampering him forever.

Wei Yan has been ill for three or four days, and the meaning is about the same. If he really stays ill for a long time, the movement will become louder.When there are too many people who are alarmed, it is inevitable that some incidents will occur.

Therefore, without the knowledge of a certain "patient", his recovery date was decided by the emperor privately.

The Wanshou Festival is only three days away from today, and it is still within the acceptable range of Tian Taiyi, so he doesn't worry about it anymore, and let the two masters toss slowly on their own, and soon bowed and left.

Doctor Tian has settled it here, so Jing Li will naturally go to seek credit and ask for rewards. Wei Yan can't pay for a while, and owes countless debts to the emperor for no reason. Will owe more and more.

However, Wei Yan has not achieved his goal yet, so he can only bite the bullet and owe it.Anyway, he didn't have to worry about his debts, and when he couldn't pay the debts, he still had to close his eyes and pretend to be dead.

No matter how ruthless the emperor wants to be in debt, he will definitely not be able to be ruthless at that time, and he will trample his body to death.
