Daming Palace, under Danfeng Gate.
A chamberlain in green clothes held a fly whisk, stood in front of the ministers, and shouted in a clear voice: "The young minister of Honglu Temple, the prince of Nanchang County, has an audience at Penglai Hall."
Under the surprised gazes of all the ministers, Li Xuan immediately stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Li Xuan, obeys the order!"
…
Walking in Penglai Hall, although the two sides are covered with thick curtains, the whole hall is very breathable and I don't feel stuffy at all.
The light came in from nowhere, and the entire Penglai Hall was bright and brilliant.
There were very few guards visible in the palace, and among the chamberlains, only the old eunuch Wang Fulai followed the emperor.
Li Zhi, who was wearing a dark golden robe, sat on the dragon collapse, leaning sideways and leisurely reading the book in his hand.
Li Xuan's clear footsteps sounded and stopped, but he never bowed to salute. Li Zhi finally raised his head in surprise and saw Li Xuan frowning and looking at the paper windows around him.
The curtains are arranged in a staggered manner to block the cold wind blowing in from the gaps. The light is projected in but cleverly refracted to every corner of the hall.
"King Nanchang, is there anything wrong?" Li Zhi put down his book and looked at Li Xuan curiously.
Li Xuan came to his senses immediately, and hurriedly raised his hands and said: "I, the Prince of Nanchang County, the General Councilor, the captain of the Qingchao, Li Xuan, the young minister of Honglu Temple, pay homage to your Majesty, may your Majesty be blessed and safe."
As she said that, Li Xuan was about to kneel down. Li Zhi quickly waved his hand and said, "No need, as I said just now, is there anything wrong here?"
Li Xuan hesitated for a moment, then looked at Li Zhi cautiously and asked: "Your Majesty, I dare to ask, does your Majesty have more headaches during the day than at night?"
"Of course, you are busy with things during the day. If you have too many things to do, you will naturally get tired easily." Li Zhi smiled.
"I dare you to ask your majesty to put a layer of green gauze on the surrounding paper windows. If your majesty doesn't like the color green, you can also put a layer of yellow gauze on it." Li Xuan cupped her hands. Although her words were incomprehensible, her face was solemn.
"Oh!" Li Zhi laughed, then looked at Wang Fulai and said, "Just do it!"
"Here!"
In a short time, every window in the palace was covered with a layer of green gauze.
The light casts in softly, giving people an inexplicable cool feeling.
Li Zhi on the high platform suddenly felt refreshed on his temples, and the pressure that had been pressing on his temples was relieved a lot.
"Hey, Twenty-seventh Lang, what's the point of this?" Li Zhi turned his head and looked at Li Xuan in surprise.
Li Xuan hesitated slightly, but still said respectfully: "Your Majesty, light is an object. Although it cannot be seen, it has its own power when it moves. If it falls into human eyes, it can cause oppression to human eyes.
This is also the reason why people’s eyes relax at night, and it is also the reason why people close their eyes to rest during the day.
I would like to ask Your Majesty to close your eyes and rest for a fixed period of time every day, which may relieve stress in the long term. "
"There is such a statement." Li Zhi felt a little funny, but thinking about the immediate effect, he immediately calmed down, looked sideways at Wang Fulai, and said: "Wang Fulai, take note first, and try it out in the next few days. Give it a try.”
"Here!" Wang Fulai looked a little excited. The light weakened. Even he felt his eyes felt comfortable, let alone Li Zhi. Let's talk about the long-term effect. At least in the short term, this should be useful.
Li Zhi looked up at Li Xuan and asked thoughtfully: "Twenty-seventh Master, if what I remember is correct, you said you found clues about Bian Que's descendants in Wuzhou?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, I originally thought that the descendant of Bian Que had lost his medical skills long ago and was lost to everyone. But later I found out that he actually still has superb acupuncture skills, but he has been wandering around the mountains all year round without being seen. The last time I found his trace, he left Liangjiang and arrived between the two lakes. It seems that he continued westward..."
"I'm traveling around the world." Li Zhi blurted out a sentence immediately.
There are many doctors around him, and he is quite familiar with some of the rules of doctors.
Ordinary doctors, no matter how excellent they are, can only treat one place. Only when they travel around the world and see all the difficult and complicated diseases in the world can they be qualified to become famous doctors in the world.
Li Zhi has had many world-famous doctors in recent years. Although they are still useful for his wind disease, who knows when the disease will be out of control. Therefore, a new world-famous doctor will be useful to him, and even to the whole world. it works.
Li Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Twenty-seventh Lang, do you have a residence permit?"
"Yes!" Li Xuan immediately handed over his hand, then took out a piece of bamboo paper and handed it over.
"Qin Minghe, a native of Yongkang, Wuzhou, was born in the first year of Yonghui." Li Zhi suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "This man is quite young."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Xuan cupped his hands and said, "His father is also a famous doctor in the mountains. He has been walking in the mountains all year round. One day, he lost his footing and fell off the cliff. Unfortunately, he died. This left only Qin Minghe. However, he He is a genius, and after his father passed away, his medical skills improved by leaps and bounds, and within a few years, he was already known as a miracle doctor in the deep mountains and among the tribes.”
Li Zhi frowned and asked: "Then why does he not go to the big city to cure diseases and help the world, but instead travels to the mountains and fields? Why?"
"I don't know about this either. Perhaps only by finding the person can we know the truth." Li Xuan's face showed helplessness.
It was also by chance that his men found Qin Minghe in the mountains and fields of Wuzhou.
In the end, I just learned that Qin Minghe seemed to have a conflict with a certain family in Wuzhou, so he was unwilling to go to the city to practice medicine. He even never went to several nearby big cities, which made it difficult for him to find him before.
Li Zhi thought for a while, waved his hand and said: "There are many famous doctors in the world who have eccentricities, and this person is just like this. Wang Fulai came and sent an order to all the prefectures and counties in Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan to search for him. If he is found, his medical practice should not be interfered with. If they need it, it can be conveniently located in various states and counties.”
"Old slave accepts the order." Wang Fulai slowly retreated.
…
Li Zhi looked Li Xuan up and down, and said with a satisfied smile: "Twenty-seventh Lang, do you think I should keep you by my side forever?"
"I also want to accompany the king at all times and take care of His Majesty at all times to protect His Majesty for thousands of years. However, my medical skills cannot be compared with those of other medical practitioners. I only have some inspiration occasionally and can treat the symptoms a little, but I can't cure the root cause at all. ...Brother Chen..." When Li Xuan said this, he suddenly felt like he was going to die. He finally handed over his hand and said: "I am incompetent and cannot completely help His Majesty get rid of the wind disease."
Li Xuan lowered her head deeply, and a trace of tears flashed deep in her eyes.
He really hopes that Li Zhi can live for a few more years, even if he lives for one or two more years. After Li Xian is deposed, Li Xian can survive for two more years. In this way, Empress Wu's power will be greatly weakened, leaving him no room to move. It could also be bigger.
Although he could not clearly see the expression on Li Xuan's face, Li Zhi, sitting on the dragon throne, could still feel a sincere self-blame coming from Li Xuan, which made him feel a little moved in his heart.
"Okay, don't be such a childish person." Li Zhi waved his hand, leaned back slightly, looked at Li Xuan calmly, and asked: "During the luncheon the day before yesterday, and at the uterus yesterday, how did you two This time I suggested that Xian'er take the Crown Princess to Lishan Mountain with him, is there anything special about this?"
"Your Majesty." Li Xuan raised his hand in a funny way, Li Zhi was so concerned about these things.
However, Li Xuan immediately remembered that the matter of the emperor and his grandson was related to the stability of the country, and he immediately said solemnly: "The matter of this girl involves the relationship between husband and wife, and the body of husband and wife. Hot springs can relieve fatigue and refresh the mind, activate blood circulation and remove stasis. It is good for the body and beauty, and increases physical strength. If some medicine can be given appropriately, it will be beneficial to the body and mind... Your Majesty..."
After thinking for a moment, Li Xuan finally shook his head and said: "I am not slandering you. If your Majesty was twenty years younger, it would be fine to take more hot spring baths, but now it is not possible. You can just take a hot bath in the palace for a while. Time It shouldn’t be too long.”
Hearing Li Xuan's details, Li Zhi nodded seriously and said, "I have taken note of what Twenty-Seventh Lang said. Xian'er and the Crown Princess should go to Lishan more often if they have nothing to do. The Princess of Nanchang is pregnant." It's April, they've been married for two years, but there's still no news."
The corners of Li Xuan's mouth twitched slightly, and she cupped her hands and said, "His Royal Highness is going to Lishan. Your Majesty would like to send more people from the palace and Shang Pharmacy to keep an eye on him."
"Yeah!" Li Zhi nodded, and then a trace of helplessness flashed in the corner of his eyes.
Although Li Xuan didn't say anything clearly, what he said was all about things he was guarding against Li Xian.
Shaking his head, Li Zhi threw these things behind, then looked at Li Xuan and said seriously: "You have received the imperial edict, and you have been appointed Honglu Shaoqing, twenty-seventh man. What are you going to do next?" ?”
Li Xuan also became serious. He arrived at Honglu Temple today as the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, but as soon as he arrived, the emperor dismissed him from Wuzhou Biejia and promoted him to the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple. In his hands, Li Xuan immediately rushed to the palace to thank him.
The Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, from the fourth rank, is in charge of attending to guests' families and receiving guests.
Li Xuan rose from Wuzhou Biejia, who was under the fifth rank, to become a young minister of Honglu Temple. Although he was a bit outstanding, considering his achievements in pacifying the Tianyin Sect last year, his plot against the Silla Japanese Kingdom in the winter, and other things. Gong, in fact, is not an exaggeration.
Li Xuan took a breath and continued to say: "Your Majesty, whether it is Silla or Japan, they are only temporarily surrendering to the Tang Dynasty and using the Tang Dynasty. But in the long run, they will sincerely join the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, regarding the treaty between the two parties, I want to make it a long-term plan and use the book of treaty to completely cut off Silla and the Japanese from spying on us, the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, this may take a longer time."
"The direction is generally correct, completely cut off the Silla and Japanese countries from spying on our Tang Dynasty, and make them surrender forever, but the time is too long."
Li Zhi looked at Li Xuan and said with a half-smile: "I remember that Twenty-seventh Lang told people more than once that Silla will definitely attack our Tang Dynasty when the Tang Dynasty and Tubo go to war.
Therefore, the first thing you, Young Master Honglu, have to do is to negotiate to keep Silla peacefully in this battle. I don’t want to hear any more news about Silla’s movements during this battle. "
Hiss, Li Xuan frowned instantly. Li Zhi was obviously making things difficult for him, but the emperor had opened his mouth. What could he do?
Seeing Li Xuan lower his head slightly and remain silent, Li Zhi did not bother him.
Now he has a more thorough understanding of Li Xuan. When Li Xuan speaks, he rarely talks nonsense. He would rather think too much than say too much.
And whenever he speaks, he must have an idea.
"I can try..." Before Li Xuan finished speaking, Li Zhi's voice sounded from above: "Well..."
Li Xuan cupped her hands with a wry smile on her face and said, "I will do my best to ensure that this matter is successful."
"That's good." Li Zhi nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "There is also the matter of the King of East China Sea. There is news that the Silla envoy has met the King of East China Sea more than once. Ask him and let him tell... ...You will continue to hold the post of General of the Jinwu Guard."
"I accept the decree." Li Xuan took a deep breath and bowed to accept the decree.
"I know that you are still somewhat confident in capturing the King of East China Sea. No wonder I heard that Zhao Gong has started to use people." Li Zhi waved his hand and said, "Okay, that's it for today. Please step back."
"I accept the decree." Li Xuan bowed deeply to Li Zhi and said sincerely: "I thank your Majesty for your kindness, and I wish your Majesty a long life and good health."
