high official

Chapter 393 Shanxi Patient
Seeing his expression, Erhei was actually a little scared, and whispered: "Big, my lord..."

"Hehe." Wang Xian smiled, and returned to his lazy demeanor and said: "It seems that the rumors are true, the officialdom in Shanxi is already a nest of snakes and rats, even if they are not raising bandits for self-respect, they are raising tigers to bring trouble." Holding his furry chin, he laughed and said, "But if their butts are really clean, we can only stare blankly. How good it is now, we can catch a few rabbits by blindly blindly closing our eyes!"

"Actually, if you hand over this thing, it's enough for them to drink a pot." Erhei is actually very courageous, but now, they are in the hinterland of Shanxi, with only a thousand soldiers and horses, and they are still guarding the barracks in Taiyuan. When stationed, they are watched by five thousand soldiers and horses.If we want to thoroughly investigate this case, it is tantamount to making an enemy of Shanxi's civil and military forces, plus the covetous Prince Jin, if they really want to piss off the other party, they will not go out of Shanxi.

"It's far from enough. These speculations from the accounts are not enough to change anything." Wang Xian shook his head and said, "There must be more direct witness evidence." After a pause, he smiled at Erhei and said: "Don't worry, Lao Tzu's skill in escaping his life is unrivaled in the world. I can't kill you."

"That's not what I meant..." Erhei smiled coyly, and asked, "What are you going to do, my lord?"

"I'm going to..." Wang Xianzheng said, Zhou Xin reported: "Prefect He is here."

"I'm going to be sick." After Wang Xian finished speaking, he looked at the mirror with self-pity and said, "Look at the thin cheeks, messy stubble, and melancholy eyes. You don't need any makeup to pretend to be sick."

"Why are you sick?" Er Hei asked puzzled.

"Didn't you tell him that I was sick?" Wang Xianbai said with a glance: "No, in order to make the effect more realistic, we have to strengthen it. Hurry up and bring Wu Wei's medicine box." Then he said to Zhou Yong: "You and Zhifu He Said, I am disheveled, please wait a moment."

The two hurried out, and after a while, Erhei came over with Wu Wei's medicine box. Wang Xian opened it and rummaged through it, found a bottle marked 'Fever Pill', poured out a big black pill, Depressed: "Can't you make it smaller?"

"I'll be crushed by the adults." Erhei hurriedly said.

"Forget it," Wang Xian gritted his teeth, stuffed the big pill down his throat, and swallowed it with tea, choking him so much that he rolled his eyes.He patted his chest vigorously, got up and said, "Go, go to meet our guests!"

Walking halfway along the veranda, the effect of the medicine came into play. Wang Xian felt his footsteps fluttering, his eyes blurred, and he almost tripped over the threshold.Erhei quickly supported him and said, "My lord, is this medicine okay?"

"Probably... no." Wang Xian was also a little uncertain, grandma, taking drugs indiscriminately when she was not sick, I am asking for trouble.

.

When Magistrate He saw Wang Xian, he was startled, he was sweating profusely, his face was as white as paper, and his expression was dull, definitely not fake.

"Oh, I'm so sick on a business trip," Magistrate He hurried forward to support him and said, "Why are you still getting up, go back and lie down."

"Don't be rude." Wang Xian forced a smile and said out of breath, "My lord, please sit down."

"Why are you still sitting?" Zhifu He said to Er Hei who was holding his right arm, "Hurry up and help your lord go in and lie down, don't let him move around." Come over, and Erhei helped Wang Xian back to the hall, and after tucking him in the quilt, Zhifu He said to Wang Xian with a serious face: "Don't think that you can spoil your body casually because you are young. You came from Jiangnan to Shanxi. I am not acclimatized to the soil and water, and I am tired, so it is no wonder that I am not sick."

After he finished speaking, Wang Xian said softly: "Today is the day to interview the relevant officials..."

"What are you talking about?" Magistrate He said angrily, "You didn't listen to what I said about feelings? Listen to me, let go of everything first, rest at ease and recuperate, and talk about everything after the illness is cured!"

"The emperor's life is on me..." Wang Xian shook his head and said.

"Brother Zhongde, I will tell you in private that the errands belong to the emperor, but your body is yours. If you break it, it will be useless!" Zhifu He persuaded him earnestly.

"Alas..." Wang Xian closed his eyes helplessly, and finally stopped insisting.

As expected, Magistrate He didn't ask anything, let him rest well, and went out of the room.But he didn't leave, and waited until the provincial medical officer came and gave Wang Xian his pulse, and then he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the imperial envoy?"

The white-haired old medical officer pondered for a long time and said: "The imperial envoy's floating pulse is a Yangbiao sickness, and the late wind is hot and cold..."

"Are you showing off your ability, or are you reporting the illness of the imperial envoy!" Although medical officers are also officials, this kind of miscellaneous job is no different from a servant in the eyes of the fourth-rank magistrate. What the hell is going on now?!"

The medical officer was so frightened that he had no choice but to speak in human terms: "Your Imperial Envoy must be suffering from a cold, and the fever is very severe, and it seems to have turned into typhoid fever again."

"Typhoid fever?" Zhifu He couldn't help being surprised, typhoid fever is very easy to kill people in this age, "What will happen?"

"Hua Tuo said: 'Typhoid fever occurs on the skin on the first day, on the skin on the second day, on the muscles on the third day, on the chest on the fourth day, on the abdomen on the fifth day, and enters the stomach on the sixth day...' The medical officer tried to be as simple as possible.

"Talk in human terms." Magistrate He still felt sloppy.

"In short, it is easy to cure in the early stage of the disease, but it is difficult to cure after a long time." The medical officer said helplessly: "From the appearance of the imperial envoy, it should have been in the stomach for six days, and the heat and poison are outside. If the stomach is full of heat and it is a disease, the disease has already It’s three deaths and one life... If it gets worse, red spots will appear on the body, five deaths will occur, and if black spots appear, ten deaths will last. It is also doubled."

Magistrate He was so shocked that he didn't even bother to scold the medical officer, and hurriedly asked, "Can you cure it?"

"At least in Shanxi Province, lower officials dare not belittle themselves." The medical officer said proudly. "Xiaguan Zushang is the medical sage who wrote "Treatise on Febrile Diseases"!"

"Disrespect, disrespect," Zhifu He said with a sigh of relief: "Then quickly prescribe prescriptions and grab medicine. You don't have to do anything else during this time, just take care of the imperial envoy." If it’s not appropriate, you can find a rope and hang yourself!”

"Yes." The medical officer reluctantly agreed, thinking that moving out the ancestors would make the magistrate show some respect, but in the eyes of others, the medical sage is just a doctor.

He also ordered Steward Zhou to take good care of the imperial envoy's daily life, and then Zhifu He left the imperial envoy's courtyard, got into the sedan chair and said, "Go to the Fantai Yamen."

The sedan chair was carried to the chief envoy, and Zhifu He got off the sedan chair and went straight to the back office. After knowing that Zhang Fantai was arranging flowers and plants in the warm room, he went in lightly. Sure enough, he saw Zhang Fantai carefully building a pot of precious orchids.

Zhifu He stood aside and watched quietly, and only after he put down the scissors did he softly call out 'Fantai'.

"Are you back?" Zhang Fantai had spotted him a long time ago, but only now he asked, "How is it, what did our imperial envoy find out?"

"It's inconvenient to ask today," Zhifu He replied, "Our imperial envoy is sick."

"Sick?" Zhang Fantai frowned slightly, "What's wrong?"

"Typhoid fever." Zhifu He said: "I have already let the medical officer see it. It is indeed very sick, and it is said that I will lie down for a long time."

"Yes, this kid came to Taiyuan to recuperate." Zhang Fantai laughed and cursed, feeling very relieved.

Prefect He smiled and said, "Healing well is better than anything else."

"That's the reason," Zhang Fantai nodded and said, "Then let him lie down, and don't die in our Taiyuan."

"The lower official has already ordered his subordinates to take care of him and not to bother the feudal clan." Zhifu He said.

"Very good." Zhang Fantai laughed suddenly and said, "God blesses me in Shanxi. I thought that the three-way imperial envoys would come in such a threatening manner that we would have to peel off our skins even if we didn't die. It stopped in a blink of an eye.”

"What?" Magistrate He hurriedly asked, "Any news from the other two imperial envoys?"

"Yes, it is Jin Yiwei Zhenfu Pang Ying who investigated the official resistance case of the Xuanfu." Zhang Fantai picked up the white towel provided by the prefect He wiped his hands, motioned him to sit outside the flower room, and walked over and said : "You said this person went to Xuanfu, what can you find out?"

"Officials of the Xuanfu, I'm afraid they're going to be in big trouble." Zhifu He said softly, pouring tea for Master Fantai.

"Yes, who told them to follow the wrong nobleman." Zhang Fantai took it, took a sip, frowned disappointedly for a while and said, "This is the top Miyun dragon, but I can't taste the taste of Zhao Wang's family."

In the eyes of Wang Xian and other Hangzhou people, Shifeng Mingqian is the best tea, but not many people in the world recognize this point, at least in the eyes of the royal family, the best tea is Beiyuan tribute tea Miyunlong.This Miyun dragon has been a royal tribute for hundreds of years.Due to the extremely small output, and the best products are only five catties a year, they have to pay tribute in full, so it is difficult for foreign ministers to taste them.Zhang Fantai drank it once in Zhao Wang's villa at the beginning of the year. After being full of praise, His Royal Highness Zhao generously shared half of the tea cake with him... Even the emperor's most beloved youngest son, only a year. If he can get a piece of tea cake, he will give him half of it at once. The word "generosity" is well-deserved.

However, after Zhang Fantai returned to Shanxi, when he invited his colleagues to enjoy tea, he felt that his mouth was full of bitterness and sweetness after a long time, but the taste of the tea was mediocre.Zhang Fantai originally thought that King Zhao was fooling him, but later when King Zhao wrote to him, he specifically mentioned this matter, and then realized that he had misunderstood... It turned out that the tea should be brewed with the best mountain spring water.Zhang Fantai asked someone to get the best Nanlaoquan in Shanxi from Jinci Temple, and ordered them to cook another pot of Miyunlong. After the first grade, it was much better, but still had a little foul smell, and he couldn't help feeling disappointed. "It seems that if you want to drink the true taste of Miyunlong, you have to use the spring water on the Zijin Mountain in the capital."

"Fantai, in the opinion of the lower officials, the spring water of Nanlaoquan is definitely not inferior to other places." Zhifu He thought about it, and said with a smile: "Perhaps the turbid smell of this tea soup is because the spring water has been transported in tanks and has been lost. It’s because of the aura, it’s not that fresh.”

"Well, it makes sense." Zhang Fantai nodded and said, "Let's go to Jinci Temple some other day and cook a pot of Miyunlong by the Nanlaoquan. It will be all right now, right?"

"It should be fine." Prefect He said with a smile. "Then the officer will arrange the itinerary."
