There is a kind of scholar

Chapter 775 Chen Keyan also wants to find the miracle doctor of Butterfly Valley

The area in the south of the city has a quiet environment, with mountains, water, trees and grass, and no hustle and bustle of the world. It is very suitable for a quiet date between lovers.

Su Xian seemed a bit overbearing. Ever since he took the opportunity to hug Tang Shuwan, he had always held her hand, whether climbing a mountain or resting under a tree.

Tang Shuwan naturally showed off the shyness of a young girl. They chatted and discussed poetry. Their literary and emotional resonance further brought the relationship between the two closer.

But the good times are always short-lived.

Before you know it, the sun is about to set.

The two held hands and stood up, preparing to return to the city. After Su Xian personally helped Tang Shuwan get into the car, he suddenly noticed that she had a worried look on her face and hesitated to speak.

"Wan'er, what's wrong with you?"

Su Xian was not polite, directly got into his car, sat beside him with a concerned expression on his face, and said softly: "Is there anything we can't say between us?"

Tang Shuwan pursed her lips, then shook her head and said, "Actually, it's nothing..."

"Uncle, the lady is worried about Alang!" Minglan got into the carriage and said something that cut through Tang Shuwan's hesitant words.

"Minglan!" Tang Shuwan shouted hurriedly, but it was too late.

"I see."

Su Xian nodded, finally understanding why Tang Shuwan was hesitant to speak just now.

He gently patted her shoulder and said:
"Wan'er, don't worry. Uncle Shi's contribution this time is not small. The imperial court is discussing rewards for everyone in Youzhou. No matter what, it is inevitable for Uncle Shi to return to his senses."

"After returning to the city later, I will go to the palace and ask Your Majesty to deal with this matter immediately. Wan'er, just wait for the good news at home."

Tang Shuwan murmured for a while, and finally said awkwardly: "Isn't it too much trouble?"

Su Xian smoothly embraced the beautiful woman into his arms, feeling relaxed and happy, and said with a smile: "Uncle Shi has already made great achievements. It is only right that he be transferred back to the capital of gods and be granted the title."

"On the day we get married, Uncle Shi must be there no matter what, right? He is your father and my prospective father-in-law! If I don't fight for Uncle Shi, who else can I fight for?"

"Thank you, brother!" Tang Shuwan lowered her head and whispered.

"Thank you..."

In the end, Tang Shuwan's carriage left first, its wheels rolling, and it soon disappeared.

Su Xian tidied up and got on his horse. After returning to the city, he went straight to the imperial city.

He now holds the important position of Taiwei, and he also carries the Queen's gold medal. Going in and out of the palace is like entering his home, and the guards at the gate dare not stop him.

……

That night.

After dark.

Tang House.

Tang Shuwan is reading at night under the lamp.

Her figure was slender and graceful, and she held a book in her slender hands. Her long sleeves fell down, and her bright wrists glowed white under the candlelight.

As a young lady trained by the Tang family, she was very serious about everything she did, whether it was reading, writing, playing the piano or cooking.

But this time, when she looked at the book in her hand, she was always distracted. The scene of going out to the city to meet Su Xian today appeared in front of her eyes from time to time...

Su Xian not only held her little hand, but also hugged her... Even at certain times, she seriously felt that Su Xian wanted to take the opportunity to kiss her...

Her hands and shoulders felt numb from time to time.

Su Xian's hands are so big and warm, and Su Xian's chest is so strong...

"Miss!"

Suddenly, a scream came from outside the house, which frightened Tang Shuwan to the point of trembling with fear. She felt embarrassed as if she had done something bad and was caught on the spot.

She hurriedly put down the book in her hand, straightened her posture, drank tea to calm down her shock, and suppressed the embarrassing scenes one by one.

"Miss! There's news, there's news!" Ming Lan burst into the room, agitated and startled. Her movements were in sharp contrast to Tang Shuwan's stillness.

"Have you heard any news stories again?" Tang Shuwan still felt guilty.

"Miss! There's news from the palace that Ah Lang has been promoted and will be transferred to Shendu soon!"

Minglan said loudly.

Tang Shuwan was taken aback for a moment, but she quickly came back to her senses. Today outside the city, Su Xian once told her to wait for the news with peace of mind. Every time she thought of the news, it came so quickly.

It was about her father's future, Tang Shuwan hurriedly got up, grabbed Minglan and asked, "Tell me the news you heard, and don't miss a single word."

"Oh." Minglan nodded.

"..."

To put it simply, in addition to the conventional gold, silver, property, and house, the Queen's reward to Tang Ju was focused on official promotion——

The governor of Henan Prefecture and the left minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs were responsible for the affairs of the censor Zhongcheng.

These are actually three official positions.

The first one, the governor of Henan Prefecture, is of the third rank. Tang Ju's current governor of Youzhou is also the third rank, but Youzhou belongs to the border state and cannot be compared with Henan Prefecture, where the Shendu City is located.

Looking at the entire Daliang, there are only three that can be called "fus", the "Jingzhao Fu" where Chang'an is located, the "Henan Fu" where the divine capital is located, and the "Taiyuan Fu" where Taiyuan is located.

The power of the governor of Henan Prefecture is not small, because he is in charge of the divine capital city, and he can often go to the palace to meet the emperor, and even participate in small court meetings composed of prime ministers.

This is an advantage that no governor in any local state capital has.

The second official position, Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, is a concurrent post. He is on the fourth rank. Compared with Henan Prefecture Yin, the rank is lower. However, the real intention of the Queen's arrangement is to allow Tang Ju to enter the six departments in advance to study, so as to prepare for future generals. Make preparations.

The third official position, Yushi Zhongcheng, is also concurrently held. It is the fifth rank, and the rank is even lower. However, the officials in Yushitai have great power, and they can hear the wind. Even the prime ministers are afraid of these "mad dogs".

The significance of the Queen's move is really intriguing...

After Tang Shuwan heard this, she quickly smiled and said: "It's good now, daddy can finally take revenge in his life..."

Ming Lan also clapped her hands and said with a smile: "It's good now. A Lang can finally return to Beijing to attend the wedding of the young lady and his uncle."

"..."

When the news of Tang Ju's promotion reached Tang Shuwan's ears, the head of the Tang family and the entire Tang family were in a state of excitement.

Nothing!
Since the Queen ascended the throne, many of their aristocratic families have been suppressed. Now, Tang Ju has actually climbed to the position of the governor of Henan Prefecture. This may have sent some signals.

Are all the major aristocratic families about to regain their former glory?

While the Tang family was in a state of excitement, the Su family and the Liu family were in gloom and gloom.

It is no surprise that Tang Ju was able to climb to the high position of Henan Prefecture because of Su Xian's help.

The blood of the Su family flows through Su Xian, and in the end it is only outsiders who get the benefits... Unwillingness, jealousy, remorse and other emotions are intertwined in the hearts of the Su family, which can be described as mixed...

Soon after, the news of Tang Ju's promotion swept the entire city of God. Some civil and military officials frowned and others clapped their hands. The reactions were mixed, but the same thing was that no one raised any objections.

Su Xian was a powerful Taiwei of the first rank, and he was extremely favored by Her Majesty the Queen. In addition, Tang Ju had indeed made meritorious deeds. Therefore, even those who held objections did not dare to speak easily.

……

……

The next day.

Nan Chen.

Royal Palace.

Emperor Chen has occasionally contracted wind and cold recently and has been in bed for many days.

In the morning, Emperor Chen frowned when he woke up, as if he had something on his mind, and allowed the palace maid to change his clothes. After changing, he went back to lie down on the dragon cave.

"Your Majesty, it's time to eat."

The personal eunuch brought the food, his wrinkled face smiled like a chrysanthemum. He took out a few exquisite breakfast items from the black lacquered and gold-painted food box and placed them on the low table in front of the dragon. The fragrance spread out.

Emperor Chen turned his head and glanced at the breakfast on the table. He sighed expressionlessly and said, "Although the Liao army has withdrawn its troops, they even gave up the prefectures and counties they had obtained."

"However, this is only temporary. The new Emperor Liao went back on his word and kidnapped Su Xian and went to Yacheng, which shows that this person has great ambitions. Soon, he may send troops south!"

"By then, there will be no miracle like this time...Although Daliang's military strength is not weak, the Liao army is really too strong. Once Daliang falls, I, Da Chen..."

"..."

The old eunuch stood by the side with his head bowed, not daring to speak. How could he, a young eunuch, dare to discuss such a matter?
Emperor Chen was not asking for his opinion, he was just talking to himself to straighten out his thoughts.

"Cough cough cough..."

Suddenly, Emperor Chen coughed violently and covered his mouth with a handkerchief. There was too much movement, and the entire Dragon Tower was shaking slightly.

"Your Majesty!" The old eunuch suddenly turned pale. He knew that this was an old illness of Emperor Chen, and his cough seemed to be getting more serious and frequent recently.

"I'm fine." After Emperor Chen coughed, he moved the handkerchief covering his mouth. The white handkerchief was stained with dark red, which was blood, which was shocking.

"Old slave, go ask the imperial doctor..."

"stop."

Chen Di was expressionless, gathered his five fingers together, crumpled the blood-stained handkerchief into a ball, held it tightly in his palm, and said in a deep voice: "Did you remember what I said? This disease has no cure, so don't alarm the imperial doctor. It must not be leaked!"

"Old slave, I obey..." the old eunuch began to cry.

"In addition, during the time when I was sick, Yan'er often entered the palace. You need to be especially careful and don't let Yan'er know about this, otherwise I won't be able to spare you." Emperor Chen threatened.

"Old slave obeys the order."

"..."

At this time, the sound of soft footsteps suddenly came from outside the palace.

At the same time, a young girl's voice said joyfully: "Father, father, good news, good news has come from Daliang..."

That’s Chen Keyan!
Only two sisters, Chen Keyan and Chen Keyao, dared to run around in Emperor Chen's palace.

Emperor Chen's expression changed slightly, but he quickly calmed down, and he subconsciously got into bed with the hand holding the blood-stained handkerchief tightly.

The old eunuch also quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. When Chen Keyan entered the palace with light steps, he smiled and said politely: "Old slave pays homage to the princess. Princess, be careful, don't fall..."

Chen Keyan waved to the old eunuch as a greeting.

Then he threw himself in front of Emperor Chen's hospital bed with a smile on his face, and said joyfully, "Father, there is good news from Daliang. The situation that Father is worried about will never happen again."

"Oh? What's the good news?" Chen Di said with a kind smile.

"When Su Xian forced the Liao army to retreat, he also tried every means to capture the eight major Khans of the Liao Kingdom and escorted them to the capital of God." Chen Keyan said with a smile.

"Is there such a thing?" Emperor Chen's eyes suddenly lit up. He naturally understood the significance of the eight great and small khans of the Liao Kingdom to the Liao Kingdom, and also understood the beauty of Su Xian's move.

"Yes, Father, it's absolutely true!" Chen Keyan smiled.

"This Su Xian is really a capable person. He was able to capture the eight major Khans of the Liao Kingdom. It's not easy. This move can buy Daliang at least decades of peace!" Emperor Chen praised.

"Yeah, there's nothing he can't do." Chen Keyan smiled sweetly.

Emperor Chen glanced at her, then his smile faded, and he sighed: "It's a pity that such a talent ended up in the Liao Kingdom. It's a pity!"

"Perhaps, Su Xian will eventually surrender to the Liao Emperor. With his ability, even if there are eight big and small khans in Daliang, it will not help."

"..."

Chen Keyan hurriedly explained:
"Father, I don't know. Su Xian relied on this to safely evacuate from Yacheng and returned to the land of Daliang. He didn't even lose a hair."

"Oh?"

The smile on Emperor Chen's face returned and he praised:

"Yes, brave and resourceful...cough cough cough cough..."

Halfway through his words, Emperor Chen started coughing violently again.

His expression changed drastically, because once he coughed, he would definitely cough up blood, but Chen Keyan was still here...

However, he couldn't avoid this kind of thing, and couldn't help it. In the end, he had to grab a new handkerchief, cover his mouth and cough violently.

"Father..."

Chen Keyan was startled and hurriedly helped Chen Di to beat his back.

She actually didn't know about Emperor Chen's old illness. She just thought it was a symptom after being infected with wind and cold, but it seemed that the symptoms were too strong.

Finally, Emperor Chen's cough gradually stopped.

He subconsciously clenched the handkerchief in his hand to prevent Chen Keyan from discovering that he was coughing up blood.

Chen Keyan never noticed Emperor Chen's little moves.

But Chen Di was too worried and used too much force. He squeezed out the blood soaked in the handkerchief and dripped down between his fingers. It looked shocking.

"Father!"

Chen Keyan was about to help Chen Di lie down when she accidentally glanced sideways and discovered the shocking scene. She screamed on the spot and was so horrified that her face turned pale.

Emperor Chen helplessly spread his palms, but he couldn't hide it after all.

Chen Keyan has cried so much that she is coughing up blood, which shows the seriousness of the problem!
Under her repeated questioning, Emperor Chen saw that the matter had come to this, so he had no choice but to tell the truth and confessed that he had been suffering from hemoptysis for a long time.

"Father, why didn't you tell your daughter about such a big thing?" Chen Keyan burst into tears, a kind of sadness that "a loved one is about to die" lingered in her heart.

Emperor Chen shook his head, expressed his concerns, and finally asked Chen Keyan to keep it secret. Once this matter was leaked, the whole of Nanchen would never have peace!
Chen Keyan finally nodded and agreed, and then asked if there was really no way to deal with this disease.
Emperor Chen shook his head and said:
"I have sought out many famous doctors in private, and they all said that there is no cure for this disease. Even if I find the legendary doctor of Butterfly Valley, it can only alleviate the symptoms, not cure them!"

"And the miraculous doctor of Butterfly Valley is just a legend..."

"No, my daughter believes that the miraculous doctor of Butterfly Valley really exists, and he will definitely be able to cure her father!"

Chen Keyan didn't want to believe it.

At the same time, the trip to Shu Kingdom one month ago came to mind.

The purpose of Su Xian's trip to Shu seemed to be to find the miraculous doctor of Butterfly Valley!
She had doubts then.

"Father, my daughter may know the whereabouts of Divine Doctor Li. My daughter will go find her now!" Chen Keyan suddenly raised her head with a determined look on her face.

Emperor Chen thought it was in vain.

If Divine Doctor Li was so easy to find, he would have been found long ago.

But when he saw Chen Keyan insisting, he knew that this was her filial piety. After some thought, he nodded and agreed, saying:
"I know Yan'er that you often travel around the world and are very experienced, but you still have to be careful and bring a few more people with you. Don't force anything."
