The world of film and television started from optical film

Although Zhao Zongquan was very tempted by Wang Zhong's proposal, the power of the government was now in the hands of the Empress Dowager Cao. Even if Zhao Zongquan wanted to reorganize the Imperial City Division, he was powerless. As the old saying goes, a clever woman cannot make a meal without rice.

Although Zhao Zongquan is the emperor now, all the affairs of the court are in the hands of the Queen Mother Cao, and even the jade seal is in the hands of the Queen Mother Cao. If it is a small matter, Zhao Zongquan can still decide it with one word, but it can be like disbanding and reorganizing the Imperial City Division. It's definitely not a small deal, and it's bound to cost a lot of money.

But the reorganization of the Imperial City Division was like a delicious dish that was placed in front of him but could not be eaten. It made Xining Emperor Zhao Zongquan scratch his head and head anxiously, but he had no idea what to do.

"Your Majesty, if the Imperial City Division is not successful, it is better to start a new one, train scouts, act as eyes and ears, and spread the news throughout Tokyo first!"

Wang Zhong suggested.

"It's best to put some nails in the Forbidden Army!" Gu Er added.

Wang Zhong took advantage of the situation and said: "Previously, when the rebels rebelled against the king and forced the palace to seal the city and locked the gates, the Caobang was able to conceal the rebels' eyes and ears under the siege of the army, obtain the blood edict and tiger talisman, and send them out of the city. The means are exactly what His Majesty lacks now."

"Zi Hou means to recruit people from the Jianghu world?" Zhao Ceying's mind was spinning rapidly.

Wang Zhongdao: "Yes, there are many strange people in the Jianghu. If we rely entirely on recruiting and retraining, we will waste a lot of time. It would be a bit fanciful to select people in the army. It is better to send a capable confidant first and privately." Recruit strange people from all over the world, build a grassroots team first, and then gradually improve it in the future."

"This······"

Zhao Zongquan couldn't help but look at his son Zhao Ceying, and then both father and son looked at Gu Er.

Gu Er cupped his hands and said, "I think we might as well give it a try. Even if it doesn't work, we will only lose some money. It's better than doing nothing now."

"Who should I leave this matter to?" Zhao Zongquan couldn't help but ask.

Gu Er said: "Why don't we let Xiao Duan go first!"

Xiao Duan broke his arm in order to save Zhao Zongquan, and now he has followed Zhao Zongquan to Tokyo. However, because of the loss of his arm, his future in the army is already slim. Now he just got a job and has nothing to do.

Although Xiao Duan's temperament is a bit upright and his mind is not flexible enough, he is more loyal than anything else.

"Can the short section be completed?" Zhao Ceying was a little worried.

Gu Er said: "Shitou's brother-in-law and uncle are both leaders of the Cao Gang. I asked Shitou to go over and help. We may be able to do it with the help of the Cao Gang."

"Then let Xiao Duan give it a try. As for the cost, let Ying'er bear it first and make up for it later! Zhong Huai and Zi Hou will also help keep an eye on it." Zhao Zongquan said decisively.

"My son takes orders!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

King Huan was a resolute person, so he took Gu Er and Wang Zhong to Xiao Duan's house that night.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this matter will be handled properly."

After experiencing life and death, even breaking an arm, and breaking Lao Geng, Xiao Duan behaves more maturely than himself at the same time in the original work.

While the courtiers were arguing endlessly about the posthumous title of King Xian Shu, Mr. Han secretly defrauded the Queen Mother of the jade seal. For this reason, Gu Er was summoned to the palace by Yi's decree and was almost beaten severely. beat.

On this day of rest, Wang Zhong accepted Gu Er's invitation and took the pregnant Minglan, Wang Qier and Brother Xu to the Marquis Ningyuan's Mansion as a guest, and by the way, he took a look at Marquis Ningyuan's health.

In the main hall of the main courtyard, Gu Er stood next to him with a somewhat solemn expression. Gu Yankai, who was sitting in a wheelchair, put his hand on the pulse diagnosis. Next to him was Wang Zhong, who was taking Gu Yan's pulse.

After a long time, Wang Zhong withdrew his hand, and Gu Er couldn't wait to ask: "How?"

Wang Zhong said nothing and said: "Master Hou, I still need to check it in detail. It may be a little offensive. Please forgive me, Master Hou."

"It doesn't matter, Zihou just go ahead and do whatever you want!" Gu Yankai said very calmly.

Wang Zhong immediately stood up and walked over to Gu Yankai, letting go to check. The main reason was the recovery of Gu Yankai's meridians at this time.

Traditional Chinese medicine is different from Western medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine has its own unique system. Wang Zhong's medical skills combine Chinese and Western medicine. He has already exceeded the sixth level and has reached the point where he can establish a sect.

After checking Gu Yankai and walking outside, Wang Zhong couldn't help but frown.

When Gu Er saw this, he couldn't help but feel worried.

"What's going on?" Gu Er quickly asked.

Wang Zhong was thinking to himself and said in confusion: "It shouldn't be!"

"What shouldn't be done?" Gu Er asked hurriedly.

Wang Zhongdao: "According to Dr. Zhang's treatment and prescription, it stands to reason that Master Hou's condition should be getting better and better. Why, instead of being completely dredged, the meridians are now partially blocked!"

"You think of a way to keep a portion of the medicine the Marquis uses and the things he takes in every day!"

Gu Eryi was stunned and asked in disbelief: "You mean, someone has tampered with father's soup and food?"

Wang Zhong said: "This is just my guess!"

"Fortunately, the situation is not serious now. I will do some acupuncture for Mr. Hou later, and then push the blood to stimulate the circulation of qi and blood, and dredge the meridians. As for the prescription, the prescription given by Dr. Zhang is very good, so I won't use it for the time being. change."

"Okay!" Gu Er agreed without thinking, but his expression was a little solemn and his eyes flickered, not knowing what he was thinking.

Wang Zhong turned around and entered the room, and together with Gu Er, he carried Gu Yankai to the bed, unbuttoned his clothes, first used a stick of incense for acupuncture, and then personally used his true energy to stimulate Gu Yankai's blood. , when Wang Zhong stopped, Gu Yankai had already fallen into a deep sleep.

"Huh!" He breathed out a breath, a smile appeared on Wang Zhong's face, and a lot of beads of sweat oozed from his forehead and cheeks. The Qi that had entered the seventh level was really good. After a push and the blood came down, he opened the door for Gu Yan. A lot of meridians have been dredged. If I do it a few more times, I guess I can get Gu Yan to go to the ground.

"Fortunately, the effect is not bad!"

After hearing Wang Zhong's words, Gu Er was obviously relieved.

"However, you must be careful about the food and daily life of the Marquis in recent days. It is best not to let outsiders come into contact. Otherwise, even if Hua Tuo is alive and Bian Que is reborn, the Marquis may not be able to stand up again." Wang Zhong looked solemn. warned.

Gu Er naturally understood what Wang Zhong meant, and said solemnly: "I understand, don't worry, I will arrange it!"

On the other side, in Chengyuan, Minglan and Mrs. Zhang were sitting under the pavilion by the lake and chatting. By the lake, Wang Qian'er, Wang Xu, Sister Rong and Brother Chang were playing with fishing rods. Working hard.

Seeing Wang Qier's catch one after another, the three little ones were envious but unwilling to admit defeat, and they worked hard to catch up.

"Sister, your belly looks like you're about to give birth, right?" Mrs. Zhang looked at Minglan's round belly, with a bit of envy flashing in her eyes.

Minglan held Madam Zhang's hand and said with a smile, "There's still more than a month left!"

"Sister, don't worry. You and Brother Gu have only been married for a long time. This child will come sooner or later."

In fact, Ms. Zhang also understood in her heart that the matter of having a child depends on fate. It does not mean that there is a certain destiny. She just saw that Minglan, who was obviously younger than her, was now pregnant and about to give birth, and she couldn't help but have some thoughts in her heart.

After all, Ms. Zhang is now a wife and is no longer the eldest daughter of the Zhang family who was raised at home and held in the palm of her parents and brothers.

"I was married to Guanren for more than a year before we had this child!"

Mrs. Zhang's maiden name was Guifen. Knowing that her officials had good relations with the Wang family, she couldn't help but ask people to find out about the two families: "I heard that the wedding of my sister and Deputy Ambassador Wang was held in Quanzhou?"

Minglan sighed and said with some regret: "Yes! At that time, I accompanied my grandmother back to Youyang's hometown to visit the old grandmother in the big house. It was just when there was a rebellion in Huaixi, and there were also bandits and water bandits from all over the country. I got up and robbed the passing caravans. For the sake of safety, my grandmother and father decided to let me get married from my hometown in Youyang. Everything was simple and not much organized. I also dressed up in disguise all the way from Youyang to Quanzhou. Don’t dare to be too showy, for fear of being robbed by thieves.”

"Ah?" Zhang Guifen looked surprised after hearing this. She held Minglan's hand, as if she felt the same thing: "Isn't it true that I have wronged my sister?"

"Actually, if you think about it carefully, there is nothing to feel wronged about. No matter how great things are, it's just a temporary thing? When these two couples get married, the key is to live a good life. If life doesn't go smoothly, they won't be able to talk to their officials. What's the meaning of those days, but if the husband and wife are harmonious, respect each other as guests, discuss everything as a couple, and live a peaceful life, we will benefit ourselves. As for the unsightly appearance in the eyes of outsiders, what's the point? Is it urgent?"

This is the first time Zhang Guifen has heard someone say such words, especially from a woman younger than herself. Although the words are straightforward, when you think about it carefully, they make sense.

"As the saying goes, if the trees are as beautiful as the trees in the forest, the wind will destroy them. I, a little concubine from a fifth-rank official family, have already reached a high level to be able to marry an official. But now, when outsiders look at it, they think it is an official." People marry me just because they care about my father's kindness in the past. Outsiders will naturally think that the official in my family is a person who knows how to repay kindness. Others will only think that the official does not value me enough, and maybe they will think that after I marry into the Wang family , life is not going well, so you will naturally like me when you look at me, maybe you will take care of me if you see me as pitiful. "

Zhang Guifen was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, and looked at Minglan more and more fondly: "This is the first time I have heard of this statement."

Minglan said: "The mouth and eyes are on other people's bodies. We can't control what others say or think. But we live our own lives. Only we know whether we are comfortable or not."

"Listening to your words is worth ten years of studying." Zhang Guifen looked at Minglan and said with some emotion: "My sister is so open-minded and cheerful, I really envy her."

Minglan said, "Sister-in-law, don't try to trick me. What kind of person is Brother Gu? My sister-in-law didn't know before, and she doesn't know now either?"

"Yes!" Zhang Guifen said, "I used to hear people say that officials are frivolous and dissolute, hang around flower houses all day long, and are disobedient and unfilial. But now that I have married into the Gu family, I know that those are just what people outside say."

"The official's temperament is indeed somewhat tough, and he acts vigorously and resolutely. He is kind-hearted by nature, and he is also very filial to his father-in-law and mother-in-law..."

At this point, Zhang Guifen's words stopped abruptly. She had been married to Gu Er for a few months. Zhang Guifen also knew a little about the Gu family. Naturally, she also knew about the conflicts between her officials, her mother-in-law, and her eldest brother.

"Every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite!" Just by looking at Zhang Guifen's reaction, Minglan guessed Zhang Guifen's concerns, and immediately took Zhang Guifen's hand and said: "As long as my sister-in-law and Brother Gu are of the same mind, no matter what difficulties and obstacles they may face, We can all go on smoothly."

Seven days later, Wang Zhong came to Gu's house again. Gu Er had already ordered people to withhold part of all the food at Gu Hou's entrance during the seven days. Wang Zhong checked one by one. Sure enough, the food Gu Hou used every morning was there. Clues were found in the eight-treasure minced meat porridge.

"No wonder!"

Wang Zhong said: "There is an extra herb in this porridge. It's okay to eat it alone. However, if it is the same herb in the medicine prescribed to Gu Hou by the imperial doctor Zhang, it will conflict with it. If the medicinal properties conflict, it will not harm the body, but the prescription contains The monarch, ministers, and assistants are out of balance, so the effect of this medicine will naturally not have much effect, and it is three-part poison. If it accumulates for a long time, it will definitely cause problems for the current body."

Gu Er's eyes turned cold: "It seems that my mother can't wait any longer!" Wang Zhong sighed and said: "This method is extremely secretive, and even experienced doctors may not be able to detect it, but now that the reason has been found, Zhong Huai might as well ask the imperial doctor to take another test in person."

"No need, I believe you!" As soon as Gu Er finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wang Zhong.

"This is not for you, it's for your father! If one doesn't work, then ask for two. If two don't work, just three."

"Why is this so!" Gu Er sighed with emotion, with a sad and helpless look on his face. He just wanted to target him, but now he even plotted against his own father, even risking his father's body.

"What would have happened if we hadn't discovered it in the long run?"

Wang Zhong said: "The meridians are stagnant and I am paralyzed in bed. My life may be endangered at any time."

Gu Er's expression changed instantly.

Three days later, in the early morning, Xiao Qin was waiting for Gu Yan, who was in a wheelchair, to eat porridge. Gu Er rushed in with stones. More than a dozen soldiers with knives surrounded the entire courtyard. It was also guarded and no one was allowed in or out.

"Son, please pay your respects to your father and mother!" Gu Er walked to the table and bowed his hands to the two of them respectfully.

"Erlang, what are you doing?" There was a lot of commotion outside. Xiao Qin's face changed slightly, and he looked at Gu Er in confusion, with a scolding in his voice.

Gu Er cupped his hands and bowed, his attitude still very respectful: "There are just some things that need to be clarified. If there is anything rude, please forgive me, mother!"

As soon as Gu Er finished speaking, Gu Er's fourth and fifth uncles, two uncles from the same clan living in Ningyuan Street, an uncle, and the aunt who didn't like Gu Er and his biological mother Bai Shi were all invited in.

"Erlang, what do you want to do by calling us here so early in the morning?" Gu Laosi and Lao Wu didn't have a good look on Gu Er.

"Fourth and fifth uncles, two uncles, great-uncle, and aunt, please be patient. Please give Gu Er a pass first. Everyone will know later." Gu Er did not explain immediately.

Although everyone was impatient, Gu Er now held a high position and was the only one in the Gu family to support the family, so naturally they had to give him some face.

Gu Er walked up to Gu Yankai and said, "I have to obey the authority in urgent matters. I failed to inform my father. Please forgive me."

"What do you want to do?" Gu Yankai was also confused, but now he subconsciously chose to trust Gu Er.

"Father, please be patient!" Gu Er bowed and saluted again, then clapped his hands.

Three imperial physicians headed by Imperial Physician Zhang were invited in.

The moment she saw the three imperial doctors, Xiao Qin's face changed slightly, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes.

I saw Gu Er saying to the three imperial doctors: "Thank you for your hard work, you three!"

"You're being polite, Gu, it's all my responsibility!" After saying that, the three of them walked to the round table, and one by one they tasted the half bowl left by Gu Yan and the porridge in the porridge cup, savoring it carefully. , and then he took out many bottles and cans from the medicine box, poured them into a bowl that had been scalded with boiling water, and mixed them with the porridge water.

After a while, Doctor Zhang was the first to speak: "This porridge is the same as the porridge that Commander Gu brought to us for testing. It has an additional medicinal ingredient, and the weight is much larger than the porridge that Commander Gu brought to us for testing."

The other two imperial physicians also said the same thing as Imperial Physician Zhang.

"Three imperial doctors, I wonder what will happen if my father eats this medicinal material in this porridge?" Gu Er asked.

Doctor Zhang was the first to answer: "If used alone, it will not cause any serious harm to the human body, and even has a nourishing effect. However, it conflicts with the red peony root in the Bu Yang Decoction that I prescribed to Gu Hou. If it is taken Too much will be harmful to Gu Hou's condition, and over time, it may be life-threatening."

Gu Yankai's symptoms were a sudden attack on the heart and then a stroke. First, he was paralyzed and unable to move. Now, although he is only hemiplegic, his symptoms may worsen at any time.

"what?"

As soon as Dr. Zhang said these words, Gu Laosi, Gu Laowu, the two uncles, and Gu Er's aunt all changed their expressions.

Even Gu Yankai was shocked, and then looked at Xiao Qin beside him with a look of disbelief.

No one else knew where the porridge came from, so how could Gu Yankai not know?

Coupled with Wang Zhong's diagnosis a few days ago, Gu Er's sudden arrangements, he was the imperial physician, he was the one who changed the prescription, and he also deliberately hid it from the Xiao Qin family. There are so many things, everything is connected, and Gu Yankai can't guess what happened. to the truth of the matter.

Looking at Xiao Qin, who had been sleeping with him for more than 20 years, Gu Yankai's eyes couldn't help but burst into tears.

The man did not shed tears, but he did not go to the sad place.

His eyes were full of confusion, shock and disbelief.

How dare Xiao Qin dare to look at Gu Yankai? She turned her head in her mind to avoid Gu Yankai's gaze. Gu Yankai closed his eyes and raised his head, trying not to let tears overflow from the corners of his eyes, but his face couldn't help but Showing self-deprecation,
Gu Laosi and Gu Laowu in the room shouted loudly in unison: "Who is it? Who is so bold? Dare to murder eldest brother?"

The faces of the two clan uncles and the uncle were also full of shock and worry. Gu Er's aunt hurriedly grabbed Dr. Zhang and asked, "Doctor Zhang, is there any way to save her?"

Doctor Zhang said: "Madam, don't panic. Fortunately, Gu Hou recovered well and did not take this medicine for too long. Gu ordered us to find us a few days ago, diagnosed Gu Hou and revised the prescription. As long as Just take your medicine on time and concentrate on resting.”

"So brother is okay?" Gu Laosi asked.

Doctor Zhang shook his head and said: "Although it was discovered in time, it will have some impact."

Gu Er took out three banknotes and handed them to the three imperial doctors in turn: "This matter involves the reputation of the Hou Mansion. I hope that the three imperial doctors will not spread the word."

"Don't worry, this is our responsibility!"

"After something like this happened, I am afraid that my father's mood will be difficult to stabilize. I have asked three imperial doctors to sit in the side hall and wait for a while!" Gu Er had already arranged the matter properly.

"It's natural."

Shitou personally sent the three imperial doctors to the side hall, while the rest of the people in the room were already looking at each other in shock.

"Brother!" Gu Laosi and Gu Laowu both looked at Gu Yankai.

But at this time, Gu Yankai was already disheartened.

"Brother, you have to say something!"

But Gu Yankai was still unmoved, but Gu Er's aunt, looking at the reactions of Gu Yankai and Xiao Qin, as well as Gu Er's attitude, had guessed something, but she didn't want to believe this guess. After all, In her eyes, Xiao Qin has worked hard in the Gu family for more than [-] years. She has been very competent as a wife and mother. She has never made any mistakes and has an excellent reputation. The relationship between her and Gu Yankai is also good. Very harmonious, how could they do such a thing.

Gu Er looked around the crowd, his eyes fell on Xiao Qin, but he was not in a hurry to expose him, but shouted sharply: "Come here, bring me up!"

As soon as Gu Er finished speaking, several soldiers with swords came in, pressing down on several strong men tied with hemp ropes, and kicked them on the back knees, making all three of them kneel down. before.

"Isn't this Aunt Xiang's man and son?"

Aunt Xiang is the most trusted nanny around Xiao Qin. She has been with Xiao Qin since she was in Dongchang Hou Mansion. She has served Xiao Qin for decades and she can be said to be loyal.

Gu Er walked up to Xiao Qin, raised his hands and asked, "Now that the matter is over, does mother have anything else to say?"

As soon as Gu Er finished speaking, Aunt Xiang, who was beside Xiao Qin, immediately ran to Gu Er, knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing: "It's all my fault, it's none of my business, it's my fault. The old slave made his own idea, and the eldest lady doesn’t know anything..."

"Mommy Xiang is loyal, but I don't know if your man and your two sons are as loyal as you!"

"Oh, by the way, there are also your grandson and granddaughter. I wonder if Grandma Xiang has ever thought about how they would survive without you!"

Gu Er's words were like the whispers of the devil in hell, which made Grandma Xiang and the whole family change their expressions.

"Second Young Master, please spare your life!"

"The villain will explain!"

"The villain will explain!"

Before he could say anything to his mother, his two sons immediately kowtowed and begged for mercy.

"Shut up!" Aunt Xiang was about to say something when a guard stepped forward quickly and slapped Aunt Xiang directly on the face, knocking her to the ground. There was a very clear palm print on her face, but Xiang But Mammy was struggling to say something. The guard grabbed her hair, picked up the sheathed sword, and slashed Mammy Xiang's mouth, without showing any mercy.

After a few blows, half of the teeth in Mammy Xiang's mouth were knocked out. The skin and flesh of her mouth were torn and blood flowed horizontally. She was still on the ground like a dead dog.

"Say it!" Gu Er said calmly.

"It's the eldest lady. We all followed the eldest lady's instructions and went to the doctor with the prescription. We spent 500 taels of silver and only then did we get this recipe from the doctor!"

"The medicine is bought by villains!"

"The villain doesn't know that the medicine is for the Marquis. If he knew, he wouldn't even dare to kill the villain!"

"Second Young Master Ming Jian!"

"・・・"

The two brothers said something to each other, and everything was explained in just a moment.

The expressions on the faces of everyone who listened were extremely ugly. The handkerchief in Xiao Qin's hand was tightly knitted, and her eyes were closed, as if she had accepted her fate.
