Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 52

To the southwest of the imperial city, after crossing the moat, is Taipingli.

Because it is adjacent to the imperial palace and adjacent to the Qinhuai River, there are many residences of princes and princes.

At the farthest corner of Taipingli, where the streets are wide and rich, there is an inconspicuous alley called Hudou Lane.Like a cecum, unnoticed.

Who would have thought that Hu Weiyong's Prime Minister's Mansion was hidden in this alley that was easily overlooked by others.

It is said to be the Prime Minister's Mansion, but it is actually a small courtyard with two entrances, not as big as the stables in the mansions of dukes.

Hu Weiyong bought it when he was still Taichang Shaoqing. Now that he has come to court, many people advised him to change to a more dignified house, but he refused on the grounds that his family was small and his salary was too thin.

Because Boss Zhu hates corruption, he does not allow anyone to visit him, let alone accept gifts or requests.After a long time, no one came to bother him gradually, and everyone in the court said that Hu Xiang is really a good official who is as clear as water and as clean as a mirror!

But early this morning, a guest came to the door.

Zhou Yuansan personally carried the medicine box on his back and was led into the back hall by the door.

I saw Hu Xiang wearing a half-worn Taoist robe with white cuffs, waiting for a long time with a smile on his face.

"The next official pays homage to Enxiang." The judge of Zhou hurriedly put down the medicine box and kowtowed to Hu Weiyong. "Happy New Year, Enxiang, Furui is peaceful!"

"Haha, brother Liangzi, please get up quickly." Hu Weiyong gave him a hand, and said kindly: "Our brothers who have been around for so long, shouldn't we use this empty ceremony?"

"It's all thanks to Prime Minister Benedict that I have today." Court judge Zhou said gratefully, "Miss En Xiang misses the old days, and this official cannot forget his kindness."

"Hahaha, the more I talk, the more idiots I get." Hu Weiyong took his hand affectionately and asked, "I haven't eaten so early. Your younger brother and sister have stewed sand soup. Come, let's drink two bowls together."

"Yes." Court Judge Zhou couldn't help but appreciate flattery, and after thanking him, he sat down at the dinner table with Hu Weiyong.

The so-called sand soup is also called Sa soup, which is to add dried shrimps, fungus, etc. to the chicken soup, then stir in an egg and wash it.

"When the chicken is killed during the Chinese New Year, there is sand soup to drink. Usually you come here, and you don't have such a good fortune." Hu Weiyong smiled and scooped up a bowl of soup for Zhou Yuanpan, and brought him a sesame seed cake. “It is a must to eat with biscuits.”

"Delicious and delicious." Zhou Yuanpan tasted it and was full of praise.

Hu Weiyong also took a bowl by himself, reminiscing about the past while eating.

~~
It turned out that the Zhou court judge was from Ningguo. When Hu Weiyong was the magistrate of Ningguo, he was a well-known doctor in the local area.

At that time, Ningguo was considered to be the front line, next to Zhang Shicheng's territory. As a result, the wife of a general of the Zhou regime fell ill. He did not know where to find out about him, so he sent someone to sneak into Ningguo County in disguise, intending to invite him to Huzhou to see a doctor.

Although Huzhou is not far away, it was regarded as an enemy country at the time. After going there, whether it can come back is a question.Even if he comes back, it's hard to say whether he will be treated as a spy.

Zhou Tianran was unwilling in every possible way, but he had no choice but to go on the road obediently as the sharp knife was pointed at his waist.

As a result, when he was about to leave Ningguo County, he encountered Huzhi County who was leading troops to patrol the county.Hu Weiyong saw the strangeness at a glance, but pretended to be ignorant, and went forward to talk enthusiastically, saying that he happened to have a stiff neck, and asked him to help him straighten it.

Those Zhou soldiers were lucky enough to let go of Dr. Zhou and let him get it done quickly.

But at the moment when Dr. Zhou was out of their control, Hu Weiyong's soldiers suddenly drew their knives and charged up, taking them all down...

From then on, Dr. Zhou regarded Hu Zhixian as a savior, and he was skilled in medical treatment, healed many wounded generals, and helped Hu Weiyong a lot of favors.

So wherever Hu Weiyong goes in the future, bring him there...

~~
"Eighteen years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the magistrate of Hu County in those days has become Prime Minister Hu, and the Doctor Zhou of that year has also become the judge of Zhou Court." Hu Weiyong recalled the past and said with emotion: "This is also a period of hand in hand between us. Good story."

"What Enxiang said, you are now the Prime Minister of a country, and the next official is no more than a mere court judge, which is a world of difference." Zhou Yuan judge hurriedly said humbly.

"It doesn't matter. As a civil servant, I have a Prime Minister Zuo above me; as an imperial doctor, you have an envoy above you. We are both second in command in our respective one-acre three-point land." Hu Weiyong shook with a smile Shaking his head, he sighed again:
"Others think that we are beautiful, but the taste of the second in command is really like drinking water, knowing whether we are warm or not."

"Yeah, it's all uncomfortable." Zhou Yuan judge nodded deeply, and said depressedly: "Take the Supreme Hospital as an example, it is the envoy of the Jin Yuan, who has the final say on everything. The next official name is The judgment of the court is actually no different from that of ordinary imperial physicians."

"It's like today, Enxiang even opened his mouth, but he only gave the lower official half a day off." Zhou Yuanjue also learned to put eye drops on his superiors, and suddenly realized after speaking: "No, the Ministry of Education did not Prime Minister Zuo, En Xiang is the number one leader?"

"Haha, you doctors are too simple." Hu Weiyong shook his head and smiled, pointing to the north and said, "Why is there no left minister? The left minister of Ming Dynasty is in Fengyang to supervise the capital city!"

"Korean man?"

"That's right, the old man said in his congratulatory form a few years ago that Fengyang has worked together, the construction period has been greatly shortened, and the project can be completed this year." Hu Weiyong said with a chuckle:

"Why is the old man so anxious? Isn't he just wanting to come back with this credit? Of course, it's also possible. Let's move there as soon as possible. No matter which one, the day when the old man returns to the court is not far away." He glanced at Courtyard Zhou and said:
"You said that if Han Gonggong comes back, how will the emperor arrange him?"

"It seems that there is only Zhongshu Zuoxiang..." Zhou Yuanjue was stunned, and then he became even more confused. Hu Weiyong and his own doctor, why are you talking about such a high-end thing?
"I don't want him to come back." Hu Weiyong didn't hide it, and said decisively in the next sentence.

"Pfft..." Zhou Yuanshang almost spat out the soup, quickly put down the bowl, wiped his mouth and confessed.

"Although now, we also obey him everywhere. But my benefactor, after all, is far away in Fengyang. The county magistrate is not as good as the current one. I still have some freedom." Hu Weiyong said to himself:

"If one day he returns to Zhongshu, then I will have to stand by the rules honestly, look at face, lick the hook, and be a dog's leg. What's the point of being a prime minister?"

"Yes..." Zhou Yuanjue nodded empathetically.

"So, brother Liangzi, can you help me?" Hu Weiyong looked at him with burning eyes.

"Of course." Court judge Zhou nodded quickly to express his opinion: "My life is all given by kindness, what do you want me to do, just do what you order! I will go through fire and water, and I will not hesitate!"

"I asked you to give Chengyi a ride..." Hu Weiyong wrote lightly.

"Ah..." Zhou Yuanjue was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help sifting through the chaff, and after a while, he said in a trembling voice: "Well, what does this have to do with not letting Han Han come back?"

"This is the way of check and balance. As long as Liu Ji is alive, he can recover; but if Liu Ji is gone, the emperor will not use him anymore." Hu Weiyong said flatly: "The emperor's mind has always been like this, let alone our emperor?"

"Yes, but this is going to lose your head, no, the Jiuzu..." Zhou Yuanpan was sweating profusely.

"The sky is falling so high, what are you afraid of? I'm here!" Hu Weiyong comforted him, "Besides, have you forgotten who sent me this mission?"

"It's... Your Majesty?" Zhou Yuan was taken aback.

"Yes, if you think about it again, the emperor knows that I have a grudge against Liu Bowen, but what does it mean to ask me to see a doctor for him?" Hu Weiyong continued to bewitch.

"Several meanings..." Zhou Yuan couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear, and stammered: "It's difficult, could it be..."

"In the end, I didn't ask you to poison me, but I just sent him to the west." Hu Weiyong said in a low voice, "I also know some medical skills, and I know that only the right medicine can be effective, but if the medicine is not right, it will worsen the condition..."

"Yes." Zhou Yuan judge wiped off his sweat and calmed down a little.

"You try to let him go back to the west after a few months, so who can suspect us?" Hu Weiyong put his hand on the left shoulder of Court Judge Zhou, and gradually said with force: "Can it be done?"

"..." Court judge Zhou nodded with difficulty. "able."

"Okay. In a few months, you will be the top leader of the hospital. I will let the man surnamed Jin be your judge and let him lick your hook!" Hu Weiyong patted Zhou Yuan's shoulder hard, stood up and said:

"Come on, let's go see a doctor for Uncle Chengyi!"

ps. It's basically set, it will be on the shelves on the 15th...it will definitely be on the shelves, hehe, you know, look forward to it.
