Bianjing little doctor

Chapter 213
It was a misty day.

The magnolia pharmacy by the Wuzhang River has not yet been fully completed, and the artisans are sweeping and cleaning.Xin Yi sat in the medicine research room with piles of books in hand. The window in the room was wide open, and he could see the spring rain and fog of the Wuzhang River.In her ears, the sound of outside craftsmen hoisting wood could be heard from time to time, but she didn't find it noisy. The whole person was extremely quiet...

She buried herself in her studies.

Under the same sky, a carriage slowly drove out of the princess mansion and entered the palace city.

Fu Jiuqu sat upright calmly, and the eldest princess looked at her son's face from time to time, was silent for a long time, and sighed softly.

"When you meet an official, listen more and talk less. Don't let your temper dictate what the official says. Do what the official says... The king is the king, and the minister is the minister. You must not confuse your identity with family affection... ..."

Fu Jiuqu had heard this kind of education since he was a child, and never refuted it.

The eldest princess comes from the royal family, so perhaps she has seen too many conflicts between the blood and family of the Tian family, so she has always been cautious.

There was a sparkle in Fu Jiuqu's eyes, and he didn't say a word for a long time. It was not until the eldest princess coughed lightly that he came back to his senses, and his expression darkened.

"understood."

The eldest princess: "I've been restless all day, what are you thinking about?"

"Nothing." Fu Jiuqu replied lightly.

The eldest princess looked at her son and sighed inwardly.

Yesterday she forcefully dragged him back to the mansion, and said a lot with earnestness, but this scoundrel didn't seem to listen to a single word.Such an expression... Maybe he was thinking about that little widow again.

"It's nothing. I think you are either bewitched, or she has given you an ecstasy drug. Just sitting here for a while, it's like losing your soul."

Apart from being a doctor, the little widow has some small skills, what else does she have?
The eldest princess couldn't figure out how Miss Zhang lost her son so much.

The more she thought about it, the more indignant she became, and her heart was full of anger that the Chinese cabbage grown at home had been raped by pigs.

"I really raised you in vain."

Fu Jiuqu raised his eyebrows.

The eldest princess seldom loses her temper, and she is always calm and calm. It is rare for her to speak in such a harsh tone.

Fu Jiuqu said respectfully, "I'm thinking about how to deal with uncle..."

The eldest son wished he could pat him on the head, "Into the palace, he is not your uncle, but an official, and the emperor. Did you ignore what mother just said?"

Fu Jiuqu raised his eyebrows, "No. I know everything."

The eldest princess: "I think you obviously didn't hear it."

"Mother is always right."

"You... are you trying to piss me off?"

~

When the mother and son entered the imperial study under the leadership of the servants, Zhao Zhen was standing in front of the desk, writing with a pen in his hands calmly, with a calm demeanor and concentrated attention, with hardly any emotion visible.

"Chenmei greets the officials."

"My humble minister pays respects to the officials."

Both mother and son saluted together.

Zhao Zhen raised his eyes, asked the servant to sit for the eldest princess, and then waved to Fu Jiuqu, signaling him to come forward and read his handwriting.

Fu Jiuqu responded and approached slowly, but saw that the characters pressed under the paperweight had already been written halfway.

"Life is born of danger."

This sentence comes from the later Jin Dynasty politician Liu Yan, and the next sentence is "Chaos arises from wanton aspirations".

Putting these two sentences together, it is the way of governing the country, which means that if the country is to be governed well, those in power must be careful and not act recklessly, otherwise chaos will arise.And the country is in crisis, and the people are bound to live in dire straits...

"Good word."

Fu Jiuqu exclaimed loudly, "Words have roots, drawn with iron and silver hooks, and they cannot be written without a dragon pen..."

Zhao Zhen squinted at him, frowned for a while, hummed heavily, and put down his pen.

"You write the next sentence."

Fu Jiuqu hastily cupped his hands, "The royal pen of the official family, the humble minister dare not."

Zhao Zhen specially left him the meaning of the second half of the sentence, which is to ask him to remember "chaos is born of wanton ambition", but now he refuses, looking cautious.

"Don't you dare? Why don't you dare?" Zhao Zhen suppressed his anger, waved his hand to let the eunuch go down, and closed the palace door by the way, and then sat down on the chair, looking at his nephew standing in front of him.

"Yuqing, I can't control your son anymore."

When the eldest princess heard this, she hurriedly got up.

"It's all my fault for my sister's incompetence in teaching her children. Please forgive me from the officials."

She raised her head and glanced at Fu Jiuqu again, speaking earnestly.

"This evil son, my sister taught him a lesson at home last night and punished him to kneel on the ancestral tablet for a whole night. Today I said that I have fully realized it, and I will never dare to do anything recklessly again. Please forgive him this time, brother... "

Zhao Zhen hummed, his beard trembling, but no emotion could be seen on his face.

"Are you really wrong?"

Fu Jiuqu bowed his head and cupped his hands, "I know I was wrong."

Zhao Zhen looked a little better, "What's wrong?"

Fu Jiuqu said: "The fault is that Zhang Lu's criminal den was not found earlier, so that more innocent women fell into the hands of thieves. It is really a big mistake..."

Zhao Zhen looked at his sister and pointed at Fu Jiuqu.

"Is this what you mean by enlightenment?"

Fu Jiuqu walked up to the imperial court and saluted politely.

"Eating the king's salary is a matter of being loyal to the king. The humble ministers don't think about solving problems for the officials day and night, and repaying the great kindness of the officials. Even if they are smashed to pieces, they will not hesitate."

"Sure enough." Zhao Zhen looked at him coldly, and suddenly pointed to the memorial on the desk, "Do you know how many memorials I received today to participate in your memorial?"

"I know." Fu Jiuqu looked up at Zhao Zhen, "I have a clear conscience. These people rely on my court not to kill speakers, not to kill scholar-bureaucrats, and use the excuse of ruling the world together to seek personal gain and force the officials to compromise. It's no different from the moths of the Song Dynasty..."

Zhao Zhen's eyes were slightly hot, he looked at him for a moment, and sighed.

"Since you have read so many books, you don't know the fear of the world, and you don't know the way of balance? Trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them, pile them on the shore, the current will be turbulent, the action is higher than others, and the crowd must be wrong. ah!"

Fu Jiuqu smiled slightly, and his gaze became a little firmer.

"However, a person with lofty ideals and a benevolent person will never regret it. I don't care about my reputation, I don't want to be famous in history, and I don't want to work with such a group of so-called benevolent officials who judge the situation. What the officials can't say, let the officials say. The officials What cannot be done, should be done by the minister, there must be justice in the world, this is the minister's idea...they are angry and hateful, and they are directed at the minister..."

Zhao Zhen looked at him, as if he wanted to reprimand him, but his lips twitched a few times, only to sigh.

As an emperor, he understands the complexity of court affairs better than anyone else. Who is right and who is wrong is often not an emperor's priority when dealing with matters. How to balance the power of the court and minimize losses is the criterion.

For a spice case, when Fu Jiuqu got the [-]-person list, Zhao Zhen warned him that the case could be closed.

Pull out the radish and bring out the mud, if you continue to follow the vine, wouldn't it mean that the entire officialdom of the Song Dynasty will be blown up?So is he still sitting on the throne of the emperor?
Fu Jiuqu fully agreed, saying that Ling Chi Du Zhongqing, an official on the [-]-person list, would pick out a few unlucky ghosts at random, and play the role of killing chickens and monkeys, so that others can at least be honest for a few years.

Zhao Zhen felt that what he said was very reasonable at the time, but turned around and made him a big case in the execution ground, allowing thousands of people to hear with their own ears that Zhang Lu had harmed one party.

To check or not to check?Of course we have to check.

He didn't want to investigate, but actually notified Cao Yi to arrest him.

In the villa, Cao Yi not only rescued the trapped women, but also obtained Zhang Lu's personal letter.

Over the years, the Xiangnv trained in Zhuangzi, where she went, which adult she dedicated to, including witnesses and physical evidence, are all in the handbook...

This was originally left by Zhang Lu to restrain those adults, but now it has become a handle for punishment.

The Cao family and the Zhang family have never dealt with each other. How can they let Cao Yi get the evidence?
What Zhao Zhen didn't say is that half of the letters submitted by the two governments today accused Fu Jiuqu of being cruel and misbehaving, and the other half impeached Zhang Yaozhuo for committing murder, colluding with his party members, and framing Zhongliang. national law.

Fu Jiuqu looked at the silent Zhao Zhen with a complicated expression.

"The officials are unwilling to deal with Zhang Yaozhuo. Is it for public or private?"

The ministers had been arguing for an hour in the main hall today, and each one was more reasonable than the other. The saliva was almost sprayed on Zhao Zhen's face, and he had already had a headache for a long time.

Unexpectedly, when he returned to the apse, he would be held accountable by his nephew.

He was so angry that he slapped the table, "It's easy to say how to deal with Zhang Yaozhuo. Do you think that if one Zhang Yaozhuo is dealt with, the court will be clean?"

will not.

If he really dismissed Zhang's party and investigated it, the court would have no opposing forces from now on, and it would become a one-sided court. Without restraint, it would be even more unfavorable for the emperor.Over the years, he has kept promoting the Zhang family by pampering the Zhang family. In fact, in a sense, it is just a trade-off of the emperor's mind.He can be a leisurely gentleman only if both sides are tightly pinched.

However, now that the evidence is all on the surface, if Zhang's party is not investigated, how will he deal with himself?

The pros and cons of it made Zhao Zhen a headache,

Looking at this nephew again, he became even more angry, pointing at him and scolding him head and face.

"You asked me whether I was doing it for public or private reasons. I want to ask you the other way around... You understand my thoughts better than anyone else. Starting from the seizure of Du's Spice Shop and the imprisonment of He Xu and Shi Tang, you Then I knew that the person behind them was Zhang Lu. If you don’t catch them early or late, isn’t it because you have scruples? Now it’s good, once Zhang Lu touches your little lady, you can’t hold back... Tell me, what are you doing again? What is it?"
