Chapter 377: A Laugh to End a Feud
King Wen did not leave the palace immediately, but took his eunuch to the south of the Yuqing Pond, which is closer to the Yonghe Palace where Princess Qu lived.
He stood under the willow tree “looking through the autumn water”, stayed until the end of the day, but did not hear the news of Princess Qu De’s death.
He had to believe that the matter had changed again.
How can this be?
His heart was as hard as emptying.
Eunuch Li reminded again, “Your Majesty, it’s time to return.”
King Wen could only walk towards the palace gates, his back a bit hunched.
The variable should be “Old Doctor Shen”.
But as soon as his people heard about the suspected existence of the Old Divine Doctor, they started looking for him.
Those useless things!
King Wen had to sadly admit that he was also useless in this life. Still not being treated well by the Emperor, not a single decent talent was given to him. Not only was his uncle’s family not powerful, but they were also pretty useless. After the rebirth of the recruitment of some people, mostly for the rabble, want to make a “King Wen party” are not able to ……
I can only hope that those who stand in his way will be accepted by the sky, but why didn’t the people who should have died die?
Since the heavens let him be reborn, he is the one who has been blessed by the heavens, and has great fortune.
But why couldn’t his heart fulfill its purpose?
After leaving the palace, he sank his face and said to Eunuch Li, “Go to the other courtyard.”
Eunuch Li’s legs trembled. Without finding new goods, Cai Yunqing should suffer again.
In Huzhuang, the courtyard shrouded in afterglow was quiet and peaceful.
In the east wing, the old divine doctor was beautifully savoring the two dishes and one soup in front of him.
Two dishes and one soup was the old divine doctor’s request. Delicious food should be eaten all the time and savored slowly, but not wasted.
He despised those who wasted food and wasted things the most.
Jiang Yishi had just returned from the Meng family home.
She would occasionally go to the Meng family home to visit the old princes and talk about the situation of the old divine doctor.
The old duke especially wanted to befriend the old divine doctor, not only because he admired his medical skills and character, but also because he wanted to show him that little stone. The old man had traveled all over the world to collect medicines and heal the sick, so he should be very knowledgeable about poisons, and wanted to ask him if there was an antidote for that kind of stone.
Jiang Yishi told him about the old Duke’s desire to make his acquaintance, but the old man just shook his head in reluctance.
Shui Zhu laughed, “Great grandmother, the fasting rice is ready.”
Jiang Yishi went to the upper room and ate the fasting, the old man hadn’t finished eating yet.
As the sky darkened, lights were lit on the porch of the house before Shui Zhu collected the dishes from the east room.
The old divine doctor ate and drank his fill, with a satisfied face.
Jiang Yishi walked into the east room and quietly spoke about the shape and color of the stone, its poisonous effects on people and flowers. This was what the Old Duke had asked her to ask today.
The old divine doctor asked, “It’s the stone that Wu Qi hid over, right?”
When he saw Jiang Yishi nod, he added, “That would be it. That kind of stone isn’t poisonous, but the stone itself carries something harmful to the human body that radiates in all directions like light and heat, and there’s no antidote. The kind of stone you are talking about is not very invasive, so just put it in an iron box with more lead in it and bury it deeper.”
The next day Jiang Yishi passed this word to the old Duke of the country, the old Duke of the country even more admired the old divine doctor’s insights, and even more want to befriend, but the old man is still reluctant to do so.
At the end of June, Jiang Xun came to Huzhuang.
Although Jiang Xun is the imperial sword guard, but he is Jiang Hao descendant, the real owner of the small tiger head pendant, Shen old imperial doctor not only does not exclude him, but also like this smiley tanzanite.
Jiang Xun kowtowed to him. He thanked the old divine doctor for teaching his sister the art of medicine and curing Meng Zhimo’s eye disease.
The old divine doctor helped him up and laughed, “We have a connection, just call me Grandfather Shen.”
At noon, Shui Zhu made five dishes and one soup.
An old man and a young man were about to be seated when Wu Youfu came in to deliver the message that the old Duke of State was here.
The old divine doctor sank his face, “Not to be seen. If he barges in on the grounds that this is his grandson-in-law’s manor, the old man will leave.”
Outside the window came Old Duke Meng’s voice.
“Old brother, the past is like smoke, and those events have been over for nearly a hundred years. You and I, our ancestors, each for their own, there is no right or wrong. To say a few words of great disrespect, the change of dynasties is an inevitable part of history that no one can change. Nowadays, the country is prosperous and the people are stable, much better than the people’s discontent in the late previous dynasty …… Why do you have to be so obsessive?”
The old man spoke a lot with raw emotion.
These words were also exactly what Jiang Yishi wanted to say.
The old divine doctor could choose which people to not treat, there was really no need to hate the current dynasty for the sake of the former dynasty, which would easily invite trouble ……
Moreover, the last emperor of the previous dynasty was a tyrant, at that time there were many harsh taxes, the people were living in dire straits, far worse than these emperors of the Jin and dynasty.
The old master also knew this reasoning, and his children and grandchildren had not advised him much, but he just couldn’t turn the corner. Today, Meng Lao Guo Gong’s words made him fall into deep thought.
Seeing the old master like this, Jiang Yishi also whispered a few words of comfort. She didn’t talk about the emperor’s goodness, but instead talked about the old princes.
“Master, ten years ago when the Western Yuan Kingdom attacked the Jin He Dynasty, it was my grandfather who led the troops to repel the Tartars and saved the people from being killed. He was a loyal general and was loved by the people. Master can’t implicate my grandfather just because he hates the founding emperor of the Jinhe Dynasty. Those pasts are long gone, it’s time to uncover them.”
Jiang Xun also laughed, “Grandfather Meng is very powerful and formidable, it’s the first time I’ve seen him lower his voice like this. Hehe.”
The old Divine Doctor looked sideways out the window. Things pass people old, a thousand years is the white clouds are long, green water flows …… long
What else is one clinging to?
The knot of the tangled old man’s heart finally opened.
He spread his eyebrows and laughed twice, said, “It’s the old man who is obsessed, Xun son on my behalf to invite the old State Duke in.”
Jiang Xun joyfully went out and invited the old Duke in.
Jiang Yishi has filled two cups of wine, the two old men raised their cups and drank, a smile to end enmity.
Jiang Yishi filled them with wine again, and went back to the upper room to eat vegetarian.
The two old men ate and talked, hated each other, until the end of the hour to eat, both drunk.
Jiang Xun and a few subordinates served them to bed to rest.
In the evening, Mr. Meng want to talk to Dr. Shen, must rely on the Hu Zhuang live.
Huzhuang place is not big, Jiang Yishi live in the inner courtyard, in addition to Jiang Xun can live in the inner courtyard, the two old men are not good to live in, only two people live in a room.
The next day, the old man let people move his things and Jojo, in Huzhuang live down.
Hu Zhuang more lively, every day there are good wine and good food, the two old men live extremely comfortable. Sip tea and play chess to eat delicious, and then enjoy the flowers, teasing cats and birds ……
Jiang Yishi honored his promise, wrote a letter to Li Zhenbao, and in exchange invited two cooks to come to Huzhuang to cook. The name is to cook for the old state minister.
Jiang Yishi copy scripture vegetarian full twelve days, Qu De Fei’s heart disease is much better. King Ping rewarded several imperial doctors, led by Imperial Doctor Yang, and Princess Ping had gifts sent to the Duke of Cheng’s residence and Huzhuang. The old lady sent a letter to Jiang Yishi, telling her to continue her vegetarian diet and copy the sutras until Consort De’s recovery.
Jiang Yishi had a very happy and fulfilling time here. Only one thing, smelled delicious and couldn’t eat.
