The three of them came to the college. Hua Tuo and Ji Ping came in and diagnosed and treated Zhou Yu on the spot.
Although Hua Tuo was revered as a miracle doctor by later generations and was as famous as Bian Que, he himself was reluctant and even often regretted it.
In the eyes of scholar-bureaucrats, medical skills were considered "side skills" and were regarded as a despicable profession. Even Cao Cao, who was a meritocracy, looked down upon him, let alone other nobles.
After repeatedly seeking an official position from Cao Cao, he was disappointed, so he went out to travel, determined to write a book to leave a name for future generations, and named it "Qing Nang Shu".
When he arrived in Xiangyang, he heard that Liu Qi had opened a medical clinic and hired surgeons. He also found out about Zhang Ji, so he happily visited him. Zhang Ji had also heard about Hua Tuo's name for a long time, and immediately recommended him to Liu Qi.
Nowadays, Hua Tuo is worshiped as a doctor of medicine and the dean of the medical school. His status is comparable to that of Liu Biao, a doctor of literature in the Confucian Classics School. He finally got over his addiction to officialdom and concentrated on studying medical skills.
After a long while, Hua Tuo frowned and stroked his beard and said, "It looks very much like it. It's probably the same poison."
Ji Ping also came back from a blood test with a solemn expression: "I tested the governor's blood before and there was no sign of poisoning. Why is it poisonous this time? I wonder if the governor has taken anything strange since we left Jiangdong?"
Zhou Yu was startled: "How do you know I wasn't poisoned before?"
Liu Qi smiled and said: "The Governor forgot to help you with acupuncture last time, but he finally got a drop of blood!"
"So you had suspicions at that time?" Zhou Yu was surprised and asked doubtfully: "So, I was poisoned only after that? But since then, I have never seen... and have never eaten pineapple cakes again. , could it have nothing to do with this thing?”
Pang Tong said: "Since Jianye, if there is no other abnormality in Gong Jin, the only change is that he was hit by Cao Xiu's arrow. First he said it was poisonous, and then he said it was not poisonous. There may be something fishy in this."
"What Shi Yuan said is absolutely true!" Zhou Yu nodded and said, "I have brought this person to Xiangyang and asked the two gentlemen to inquire."
Liu Qi immediately sent someone to pick him up, but Zhou Yu couldn't wait to say: "My illness is not the most urgent matter. Where is Ziyi now? If I can't redress Bo Fu's injustice and return Jiangdong to a bright and sunny sky, how can I feel at ease even if I am a hundred years old?"
Liu Qi sighed and took Zhou Yu to the backyard. They passed a bamboo forest and walked around several times. Even Zhou Yu was confused: "This forest seems a little weird?"
Pang Tong smiled and said: "This bamboo forest was built by Kong Ming according to the eight formations. If you enter rashly without guidance and don't know the direction at all, you will be in danger of killing."
Zhou Yu was secretly surprised and said: "Wolong is actually so capable?"
Pang Tong laughed and said: "Wolong is a divine man. He knows astronomy from above, geography from below, Yin and Yang, Bagua, Qimen, and Dunjia. According to him, this formation is not yet mature. If it is completed, it can be Hidden millions of powerful soldiers."
Zhou Yu laughed dumbly, shook his head and said, "Shi Yuan's words are too much."
Pang Tong curled his lips and sneered coldly, and did not argue with him. He only flattered his friends in moderation. There was no need to praise him any more. He would look too vulgar.
While talking, the three of them came to a secret room and entered the corridor. They found another world, with white clouds and birds singing happily, as if they were in another world.
Zhou Yuzheng was secretly surprised. When he walked through the stone gate, he saw a man sitting in front of the stone table. He was thin and his thick beard turned gray. He was startled for a moment before he recognized it was Taishi Ci.
"Ziyi!" Zhou Yu stepped forward quickly.
The man was shocked, turned around and saw Zhou Yu, and was also surprised: "Are you... the Grand Governor?"
The two looked at each other for a moment, then rushed forward and hugged each other. They cried into each other's arms with a sound like an ape's cry.
A man doesn’t shed tears lightly, but it’s just not the time to feel sad!
Pang Tongyi sighed softly, walked to the side with Liu Qi and sat down, waiting for them to calm down.
As Sun Ce's close confidant, he felt the same way about many things. Being harmed to such a situation, everything was unspoken.
The two cried for a while and sat down with help. Zhou Yu looked at Taishi Ci again and sighed: "I haven't seen him for a year, and Ziyi has lost so much weight. The former tiger minister from Jiangdong has become extremely weak."
Taishi Ci sighed: "It's not easy to save a life this time. If I hadn't learned about Bo Fu's grievance, I would have given up thinking about it and went to the spring to accompany him. The governor is also much haggard, and he is no longer as majestic and energetic as before. It’s so impressive!”
Zhou Yu shook his head and said: "I originally wanted to start a business for Jiangdong, but now I have no faith. I am exhausted physically and mentally. How can I be heroic?"
It turned out that Zhuge Liang had poisoned Taishi Ci while he was being treated. He gradually informed Sun Quan that he was suspected to be the mastermind behind the scenes. Taishi Ci would rather die in disbelief. It was not until Zhou Shan came to assassinate him with an ancient ingot knife that he finally came to his senses.
Zhuge Liang, Ma Di and others captured Zhou Shan and told Sun Ce that Sun Ce had died in a conspiracy and that Jiangdong had something hidden. Zhou Shan changed his mind and told the truth. Both of them were shocked.
Later, a secret letter from Zhou Yu was sent to Xiangyang. When Taishi Ci saw that his condition was similar to his own, he became furious and almost died of anger. He was in coma for several days.
Nowadays, everything is full of doubts, and it is no longer possible to judge by just guessing. Someone must go to Jianye to investigate the matter and look for clues before justice can be redressed.
Zhuge Liang simply used a trick and asked Taishi Xiang to falsely claim that Taishi Ci had died, carried the coffin back to Jiangdong, and was buried halfway in Jiangdong, and asked him to return to Jianye to investigate the matter secretly.
When Taishi Ci woke up again, he looked like a log, with gray beard and hair. He looked like a completely different person. If he hadn't wanted to avenge Sun Ce, he would have given up his life.
The two communicated about their illnesses and found that many of the symptoms were similar, but Huang Gai and others had never eaten pineapple cakes, and Cheng Pu's death was unexpected.
After some analysis, the finger was finally pointed at Sun Ce and the merits of following him in starting a business.
But Sun Quan was only eighteen years old at the time, and this incident had already happened three to five years ago. Could it be that a boy of more than ten years had such scheming intentions?
Pang Tong saw the two of them discussing for a long time, but still refused to mention the important point, so he said: "I think the key to this matter is the pineapple cake. The person who made the pineapple cake is the most suspicious, that is Mrs. Wu."
Zhou Yu's face changed slightly and he sighed: "If this matter has something to do with the old lady, we will have no way to investigate. Bo Fu has been loyal and filial throughout his life. If we pursue this matter, wouldn't we be disloyal and unfilial?"
"Pedantic!" Pang Tong couldn't help but scolded: "Zhou Lang, Zhou Lang, how many righteous men have been willing to die to avenge the Lord since ancient times! What's more, Sun Ce and you are brothers? If he knew about this conspiracy, he would definitely kill his enemies and destroy his relatives in a righteous way. , this person is not only a harm to the Sun family, but also a harm to Jiangdong. If this problem is not eliminated, the Sun family will be in danger, and Jiangdong's foundation will be wiped out. Don't you two know it?"
Liu Qi also sighed: "How many princes, generals, noble families, and even the homes of common people have all been destroyed by the hands of such villains? The chaos of relatives in the state-owned harem, the evil wife Xiao Qiang in the family, if not eliminated early, the harm will be endless." .”
Zhou Yu said with tears: "Bo Fu and I have a good relationship. We are in love with each other. We are real men in life. When we meet a confidant, we entrust the righteousness of the king and his ministers to the outside. We have the kindness of our flesh and blood on the inside. We must follow our words and follow our plans. We will share the joys and sorrows of this life." No regrets, who knew he would..."
Taishi Ci slammed the stone table, stood up and gritted his teeth and said: "I cannot avenge Bo Fu. I, Taishi Ci, am a minister in vain, and I am not worthy of being a confidant."
Zhou Yu wiped away tears and looked at Liu Qi, clasping his fists and saying: "What I have wanted in my life has been caught up in a conspiracy, and I have been teased like this. Now I am restless and in chaos. Since the general is involved in this matter, I don't know what good plan to use?"
