"You don't want to be a commoner." Lao Tan hunched over in front of Zhu Biao and lowered his head greatly.
Zhu Biao suddenly burst into laughter, and said with a cheerful smile: "As long as you are the one who heals me, then the credit belongs to you. Is there anything you shouldn't take?"
"Yes, yes, yes, the common people obey His Highness. Whatever His Highness says will be whatever he says." Lao Tan bowed repeatedly and replied.
Although Lao Tan has an old name, he is not old. He is at most in his early thirties, and because he is proficient in medicine and good at maintaining his health, he looks as if he is ten years younger.
Zhu Biao took one look at Lao Tan's young face and decided to reward him with a future. He looked up at Lao Tan, paused, and then asked: "I have decided to give you a chance and call you into Taiyuan Hospital. I wonder if you are willing?"
Taiyin Hospital, this is the place that people in the world dream of. It’s not that all the doctors in the world are greedy for power, but the Taiyuan Hospital has the best imperial doctors in the world and the largest collection of medical classics in the world. Various secret treasures that are regarded as treasures among the people are as commonplace as goods on the street.
Therefore, most doctors in the world who want to join Taiyuan Hospital do not go there for the power and position, but for the medical classics of Taiyuan Hospital.
Zhu Biao's reward to Lao Tan may be worthless to others, but to Lao Tan, it is more satisfying than giving him gold and silver.
"Common people, thank you for your great kindness, Prince." Old Tan beamed with joy and knelt down to Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao waved his hand with a smile and said: "You don't need to thank Gu. It's Gu who should thank you for saving Wanhu. Moreover, the reason why Gu recommended you to Tai Hospital is because you are extremely talented in medical skills. This It’s also your own creation. Also, it’s time for you to call yourself a minister.”
"Caomin... Your Majesty, Tan Song, thank you for your great kindness." Tan Song replied with a happy face.
Tan Song was able to have such outstanding medical skills, and of course he was from a well-known family. It's just that although his master handed over all his skills to him, after he left the master, he still had to walk the road ahead on his own.
Although Xinglin is also a master and apprentice, they can be said to be the most uneducated group of people in the world. In the eyes of these doctors who save lives and heal the wounded, human life is of paramount importance, and one human life is more important than any sectarian opinion. Therefore, famous doctors throughout the ages not only did not have the idea of preserving their knowledge, but they also wished that what they learned could be spread to the world.
Sun Simiao's Thousand Gold Prescriptions, Zhang Zhongjing's Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases, etc. Especially Sun Simiao's thousand-gold prescription, he just wanted to turn all the people into people who knew how to practice medicine.
It was precisely because the doctor had no personal opinions that when Tan Song was recommended by Zhu Biao to join Tai Hospital, he agreed without hesitation.
Seeing Tan Song's unexpected agreement, Zhu Biao nodded with a smile and turned his attention to the other people in the mine. Said: "You have also made great contributions. All of you have been promoted to level three, and each of you will be rewarded with a hundred guan."
These are all people from Huangzhuang. Although Huangzhuang is not a court, the people in it also have high and low levels. Moreover, the level of these people is almost difficult to change except for surviving the day. Now, because they participated in rescuing people, they were promoted to three levels in a row. This was a beautiful thing that they had never dreamed of.
What's more, there is still a reward of one hundred guan. They had never even heard of such a huge reward, let alone thought of it falling on them.
"Thank you, His Royal Highness. His Royal Highness is a thousand years old..."
Hou Bing beside Han Du also knelt down quickly, his face full of uncontrollable joy.
The reward was due, and the next step was to treat Tao Chengdao so that he could wake up as soon as possible.
With Zhu Yu in front of them, the three imperial doctors worked extremely hard and worked with Tan Song to treat Tao Chengdao. From now on, Tan Song will also be the Imperial Physician of the Imperial Hospital. His medical skills may not be as good as those of the three imperial doctors, but after all, he was appointed to the Imperial Imperial Hospital by His Royal Highness. Not only did the three imperial doctors not have the slightest objection to Tan Song's involvement, they also took the initiative to use Tao Chengdao as an example to explain to him some secrets that ordinary doctors had no access to.
Although Tan Song doesn't know these things yet, he will know them sooner or later when he enters Tai Hospital.
The three imperial doctors were doing favors with something that Tan Song would know sooner or later. Not only did they not suffer any loss, but they also got closer to Tan Song.
People like Tan Song who can be recommended by His Highness the Crown Prince may become the president of the Imperial Hospital after His Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne. Faced with someone who is very likely to become their immediate boss in the future, how could they not choose to show friendship and get closer to them?
By the next morning, it was still dark. Tao Chengdao, who had been taken care of by four imperial doctors all night, finally woke up.
After all, Han Du is young and his recovery ability is much faster than Tao Chengdao. After a night's rest, Han Du was fine.
After hearing the news that Tao Chengdao had woken up, he quickly put on his clothes and went to Tao Chengdao's room.
When Han Du came here, everyone had already arrived one step ahead. He came to the bed and looked at Tao Chengdao with bright eyes, obviously in good spirits.
Han Du couldn't help but complained: "Do Wanhu want to fly to the sky?"
Of course Tao Chengdao knew why Han Du asked this, but after all, he was able to survive because of Han Du. He smiled and said: "To be honest, I never thought that I could still be alive. I'm afraid you have contributed a lot to this, right?"
"Of course, if it weren't for me, you would have fallen from the sky and been smashed to pieces." Han Du was threatened by Tao Chengdao, and the anger in his chest has not dissipated until now, talking to him , of course you're welcome.
Tao Chengdao himself knew that what he did was unreasonable and threatened Han Du with his own life, asking Han Du to risk his life to accompany him in the adventure. Thinking about it now, he felt scared.
You must know that Han Du's identity is extraordinary. Fortunately, Han Du is fine this time. If something happened to Han Du, the emperor would not let him go even if he survived. This was very clear based on his understanding of the emperor.
Therefore, Tao Chengdao had no choice but to nod towards Han Du and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Marquis Zhenhai, I'm here to accompany you."
As he spoke, he struggled to get up.
How could Han Du ask him to stand up and apologize at this time? He had no choice but to quickly reach out his hand and signal: "Forget it, as long as you don't take me with you next time you fly into the sky."
"No way." Tao Chengdao lay down and said with a smile.
Obviously, what he did when he stood up just now was for Han Du to see.
As for flying to the sky in the future, Tao Chengdao knew very well that after this experience, neither the emperor nor his disciples would agree to his flying to the sky again.
Zhu Biao saw that Tao Chengdao was in good spirits, so he held Tao Chengdao's hand and comforted him and said, "My father has issued a decree to let Wanhu recover from his illness. After Wanhu recovers, my father also wants to hear that Wanhu is in heaven." experience.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness." Tao Chengdao nodded slightly.
After Zhu Biao was done with the matter, he took Han Du out of the room, leaving the remaining space to the four imperial doctors. After all, Tao Chengdao had just woken up and he didn't know what the problem was, so it was only right to let several imperial doctors take care of him carefully.
As soon as Zhu Biao took Han Du out, he said to him: "Since there is nothing serious about you, let's go into the palace with Gu. My father is waiting for news about you, and I am afraid he will be anxious."
"Okay." Han Du saw Zhu Biao's unquestionable tone. Although he didn't know why Lao Zhu wanted to find him, he had no choice but to agree first.
After Lao Zhu returned to the palace last night, he sat in the Qianqing Palace all night without a moment's rest. Lao Zhu did this not because he was worried about Han Du and Tao Chengdao. Of course, this was also a superficial reason, but what really made Lao Zhu sleepless all night was what Han Du and Tao Chengdao saw when they flew to the sky, what they encountered, and what they got. What?
"My son, I pay my respects to my father." Zhu Biao knelt down in front of Lao Zhu first.
"Your Majesty, Han Du, pays homage to the Emperor." Han Du also followed Zhu Biao closely and bowed to Lao Zhu.
Lao Zhu's expression suddenly returned to normal, he raised his hand and said casually: "Get up."
"Thank you, Father."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Han Du stood up and looked up at Lao Zhu. I found that he looked a little tired and his eyes were slightly red. He thought it was because Lao Zhu was worried about the comfort of himself and Tao Chengdao, and felt warm in his heart.
Lao Zhu did not beat around the bush, he took a sip of ginseng tea, and after his mind became clearer for a while, he asked: "Han Du, what did you see after you and Tao Chengdao flew into the sky?"
Han Du didn't think about it carefully and replied casually: "I didn't see anything."
"What did you say?" Lao Zhu obviously didn't believe Han Du's words, and his eyes narrowed, with a bit of danger in his eyes.
Zhu Biao saw his father's gaze in his eyes and couldn't help but feel secretly worried for Han Du. But at this time, he had no way to speak for Han Du. It would be okay if he didn't say anything, but if he spoke rashly, he might make the matter irreversible.
Han Du's mental fatigue has not completely subsided, and he did not notice Lao Zhu's eyes and tone, and replied truthfully: "After Chen and Wan Hu flew into the clouds together, they were surrounded by white clouds. Everything could be seen. No. Wait until you fly above the clouds..."
"What's on top?" Lao Zhu asked impatiently before Han Du could finish speaking.
Han Du was a little surprised at Lao Zhu's eagerness, but he replied without thinking: "There is a blue sky above the clouds, the sun and stars are clearly visible, but the surrounding area is so empty, there is nothing."
After listening to Han Du's words, Lao Zhu stood up immediately and shouted angrily: "Nothing? How is this possible? Where is Tiangong..." Before he could finish speaking, Lao Zhu quickly paused.
Han Du's eyes widened when he heard this, and he immediately understood why Lao Zhu was so eager, and also understood why Lao Zhu paused the topic nervously.
It turns out that even Lao Zhu is not exempt from vulgarity! In the past, Lao Zhu said that he didn't care at all whether he could live forever, and he would never go back to seek immortality. Han Du really believed it at that time, thinking that Lao Zhu was indeed different from the previous emperors.
But now it seems that the reason why Lao Zhu did not seek immortality or seek immortality in the past was because he knew that this was a lie since ancient times, so naturally he would not care.
Now that he saw Han Du and Tao Chengdao flying up into the sky, the fire in his heart naturally became restless again. After all, all the world's fantasies about immortality and seeking immortality and Taoism originate from the world.
If there really is a heavenly palace in the sky, then Lao Zhu may not choose to pursue immortality. In addition, Lao Zhu is now older, so this possibility is not only possible, but also not small.
Han Du lowered his head and thought for a moment, then looked up at Lao Zhu, shook his head and replied: "Your Majesty, there is a palace in the sky, but it is just a delusion of the world. Everyone thinks that there is a palace on the moon, but the emperor has also seen the moon with his own eyes. If it looks real, is there anything else besides potholes and desolation everywhere?" If Han Du gave other examples, Lao Zhu might not agree. But when Han Du compared it with the moon, Lao Zhu couldn't help but believe it. Because he had seen the true appearance of the moon with his own eyes.
Lao Zhu felt disappointed when he heard this. He slowly returned to his chair and murmured to himself: "Is there really nothing in the sky? There is no heavenly palace and no gods?"
Han Du looked deeply at Lao Zhu. Sure enough, everyone in the world admired longevity, and even Lao Zhu couldn't escape. Han Du was afraid that Lao Zhu would fall into the trap of seeking immortality, so he shook his head bluntly and said: "If the emperor does not trust me, Wanhu has seen the scene in the sky with his own eyes, and the emperor can ask him."
As he said that, Han Du raised his head, met Lao Zhu's eyes calmly, and said: "Even this time, I took a hot air balloon to fly to the sky, which proves that flying is feasible. The emperor can definitely send more people to continue flying and look at the sky. Is there a heavenly palace?"
Han Du's words left Lao Zhu speechless. Even if Han Du had selfish motives and would lie to him, Tao Chengdao would not lie to him. Even if Han Du can collude with Tao Chengdao, but as Han Du said.
Now that he has hot air balloons, he can definitely send more people to fly into the sky. It is impossible for Han Du to bribe these people, right?
After Lao Zhu figured it out, his mind suddenly became clear, and he no longer had to worry about whether there was a heavenly palace or gods in the sky. Without asking anyone, Lao Zhu understood that the scene in the sky that Han Du said was true.
However, although Lao Zhu had figured it out, he couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart. As he got older, he felt increasingly powerless. Sometimes he even deeply regrets why he has become older and why he has lost the energy and passion he once had.
When Lao Zhu thought about this, he couldn't help but have some thoughts about immortality. After all, if he could really live forever, he would not have these problems now, and he would naturally be able to govern the Ming Dynasty more prosperously.
Because of this, Lao Zhu stayed up all night anxiously after seeing Han Du and Tao Chengdao fly into the sky. I just want to know whether there is a heavenly palace at this time, whether there are gods, and whether there is a real way to live forever?
Unfortunately, the answer Han Du gave him was no.
There is no heavenly palace in the sky, there are no gods, and there is no real immortality in this world. Birth, old age, illness and death are still shackles that no one can escape.
After a while, Lao Zhu slowly calmed down, looked up at Zhu Biao, and suddenly asked: "You don't blame me for wanting to live forever, do you?"
If Lao Zhu is immortal, then of course the one who will be most affected is Zhu Biao. That means that he, the prince, may only be a prince in his whole life and will never be an emperor.
The atmosphere in Qianqing Palace suddenly became solemn when Lao Zhu asked this question.
Zhu Biao smiled gently after hearing this, and this smile melted the frozen atmosphere of the entire Qianqing Palace. Zhu Biao bowed slightly, cupped his hands and replied: "If my father can live forever, it will be a great blessing for me. Even if I risk my life, I will fight for my father's chance."
Lao Zhu didn't care about Zhu Biaobiao's loyalty, narrowed his eyes and continued to ask: "If I were immortal, then you would have no chance to ascend the throne. Don't you want to sit on the throne of the emperor?"
Han Du never thought that Lao Zhu would ask such a sharp question at this time. It’s not easy to answer this question. The answer is, doesn’t it mean that you just hope that Lao Zhu will die, and you don’t want Lao Zhu to live forever? But if you answer no, it would seem too hypocritical. If Lao Zhu feels that Zhu Biao is showing false affection to someone, it will inevitably arouse Lao Zhu's suspicion of whether Zhu Biao's filial piety towards him in the past was sincere. I doubt whether Zhu Biao is really tolerant towards his younger brothers.
If the answer is not good, even Zhu Biao's position as prince may be shaken.
But this question just doesn’t work if you don’t answer it.
At this time, Han Du did not dare to speak without authorization and stood aside with his head lowered, wishing that Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao would regard him as transparent.
"I don't want to," Zhu Biao replied directly without any hesitation.
Lao Zhu looked at Zhu Biao noncommittally, without even making any expression on his face.
Zhu Biao continued indifferently: "I know very well that a piece of Zhu Biao in your hand may be a heavy mountain for the people when it comes to the people. Therefore, every time I read the memorial, I must think about it again and again. , I dared to write. I was afraid that because of Erchen's negligence, the people would be wronged and wronged. Erchen did not dare to deceive his father. These days, Erchen felt more and more overwhelmed by the world's affairs. .”
"If my father could take away the power of supervising the country from me, I would be very grateful." Zhu Biao immediately knelt down.
Zhu Biao knelt down, and Han Du couldn't stand still, so he had to kneel down.
Lao Zhu's eyes met Zhu Biao's. After a moment, his serious face gradually softened. After taking a long breath, he sighed and said: "You are the eldest son and the prince of the Ming Dynasty. These are your responsibilities and cannot be avoided. I am very happy that you can understand the weakness and difficulties of the people. For A king must have such a heart that cares about the common people in the world in order to be able to govern the world well."
"My father knows what my father said. However, my son really can't stand it anymore..." Zhu Biao suddenly smiled bitterly after hearing this. Although he was a little afraid of his father, the difficulty of handling government affairs still weighed on him. Out of breath, I wanted to give in again.
