Da Suining

Chapter 207

It was getting darker.

The winter wind blows.

The gate of the palace is about to close.

Physician Lu walked ahead with his hands behind his back, and Lu Yu followed behind him step by step with his medicine box on his back.

Physician Lu suddenly stopped, and Lu Yu immediately jumped back three or four steps with the medicine box on his back.

"You are clever." Doctor Lu with a dark face, after leaving the palace gate, he stopped in a place with deep grass and trees: "You don't know the importance, how dare you pretend to be the little eunuch next to me and follow me into the palace?" , it’s fine if you enter the palace with me, but you still dare to show off in Heyiyuan, you don’t know how to live or die.”

"Father, don't be angry, am I fine?" Lu Yu hurriedly stroked his father's back: "I don't dare to do it next time, can I?"

"Do you dare to have a next time? If the emperor is not magnanimous this time, according to the concubine's wishes, you will have to lose a layer of skin. If the outsider breaks into the inner palace without being summoned, it will be a capital offense. It is our imperial doctor." , can walk in the various palaces, it has to be recorded by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, do you understand?"

"understood."

"Tell me, why did you break into the Heyiyuan?"

"father"

"Don't say it's to see the majesty and wealth of the palace, and don't say it's to learn medical skills. You are an unscrupulous child. You don't have these serious ideas. Tell me, why do you want to risk yourself? Replace the little eunuch?"

"It's not for Guo Cheng."

"Ok?"

"Father has also heard about the Huguo Temple. Not only did he commit crimes in the Huguo Temple, but he is also said to have killed a dozen or so refugees. The family members of Caihong who are now staying in our mansion were killed by him." Under the knife. For this reason, Guo Kai was almost killed. As the saying goes, the sky net is wide and sparse but not leaked. People also say that hearing is believing, and seeing is believing. I just came to see him. Guo Kai was taken away by God. Is there any?"

"The results of it?"

"In the end, the heaven failed to fulfill his wish, and the heaven confiscated him. Feeling his pulse, the condition should be under control, and there is nothing serious."

"Father knows, you have read a lot of medical books, and you probably understand the principles of medicine, but in the palace, medical skills are just superficial, and more importantly, they are good at dealing with people. How can you be able to handle things with ease between masters and masters? Don't put yourself The road is blocked, you are young and energetic, the second prince alone bullies the maid, it is Heyiyuan's own business, you have no right to intervene, anyway, you also intervene, but you have to carefully consider what the emperor asks, Don't look like you know everything, and don't be sure, alas, you didn't think about it anyway, you said what you should say and what you shouldn't say." Lu Taiyi was a little worried: "Thinking that I, Lu Zhan, have served in the palace for many years, It is conscientious and cautious, how did you give birth to something like you."

"Father, I'm already very cautious."

"Where is the caution?"

"For example, the madness of the second prince biting his concubine was obviously pretending, but I didn't expose him very much."

"What, you mean, the second prince just pretended to be sick?"

Lu Yu nodded.

Physician Lu couldn't help wondering.

When Guo Kai bit the concubine, he was very fierce, like a roaring beast.

How could it be pretending.

There are things in the palace that pretend to be crazy and stupid, and it is possible to pretend to be sick, but if you pretend to be sick and bite someone, you should also bite the maids and eunuchs of the Yiyuan. How could you bite your mother's ear? ?
Never heard of such a thing.

But Lu Yu said calmly: "Some parents can sell their children for some money. In times of famine, there are also cases of changing children to eat, so it is not impossible for children to attack parents. I was Next to Guo Kai, he seemed to be in a state of madness, so I tried it on purpose."

"Ok?"

"I tapped on the acupuncture point on his neck, and he passed out. If it was normal, it would be very normal for him to faint, but just now, I deliberately didn't tap on the acupuncture point, but a little bit off, which is normal Speaking of that position, the difference is a thousand miles away. If you click that position, you won't faint, or even have no reaction at all, but Guo Kai fainted in response, isn't it pretending? "

"I didn't expect you to be so young and have such a heart." Lu Taiyi looked at Lu Yu with admiration: "In order not to offend the concubine and empress, and also to avoid accidents, you have not confirmed that the second prince is pretending, have you? .”

Lu Yu nodded.

"It's considered that you are from our Lu family, so you're not very reckless." Imperial physician Lu straightened Lu Yu's collar himself.

Looking at this son just now, he was still not pleasing to the eye. Looking at him now, he has bright eyes and white teeth, and gentle eyes. In addition, Lu Yu has a tall posture, firm abdomen, and flat back. He is a noble and calm young man.

Physician Lu liked it more and more.

"Speaking of which, you are such an adult, father shouldn't be cruel to you, it's just that your mother can't see, and you are the only child, you rush into the palace without knowing the importance, in case there is any accident, how can I tell your mother? Tell me, isn't that killing her?"

"I know about my father, and I will try to keep my mother from knowing about it again."

"Ok?"

"I know I'm wrong with my father, and I'll be more careful in the future."

Physician Lu laughed.

Lu Yu, who was carrying the medicine box, was obviously taller than him at this time, with a tall and straight figure, and his conversation was not timid. Physician Lu was already very satisfied.

But he still did not forget to tell Lu Yu: "Study medicine and become a doctor is not as simple as you think, especially when entering the palace as an imperial physician, it is even more about hanging your head on your belt. You and your mother Only you, our house is not short of money, you can just spend money when you have nothing to do, and you don't need to do business."

Everyone hopes their son will become a dragon, but Imperial Physician Lu is different.

Ever since he was a child, Imperial Physician Lu could only say this sentence, the Lu family has no shortage of money, Lu Yu just spends the money, and there is still more after spending, don't do business.

The real thing here is to study medicine and prescribe medicine.

But it happened to be a ghost, maybe it was carried in the bones of the old Lu family ancestors for generations. Lu Yu was born with a strong interest in learning medicine and prescribing medicine. Like a ball of flame, the more you stir, the higher and more vigorous the flame will be.This ball of fire was held on Lu Yu's chest, making him shine brightly in this severe winter.

"Seeing that you are idle, you followed me into the palace. You probably don't have any money to spend. You went to eat, drink and have fun early. It's because father overlooked and forgot that you don't have money." Lu Taiyi said, from the purse He took out ten taels of silver and forced it to Lu Yu: "I heard that there is a fresh soup and mutton restaurant in the east of the city. The mutton in the soup is freshly slaughtered every day. No spices are used. It is only boiled in mutton soup." When it’s time to drink, put some salt, don’t mention it, the smell, some grown-ups who go up to the court, go there to drink a bowl after the court, it’s steaming hot, and the head is sweating, not to mention how comfortable it is.”

"Now that the plague is not over, everyone should go out less. Is it appropriate for Dad to send me out?"

"Father forgot, dad forgot." Imperial Physician Lu took out another ten taels of silver and handed it to Lu Yu: "There is an overpass in Qingcheng, you know that? The boldness, the door has already been opened to welcome guests, those foreigners have good singing and dancing skills, and there are also snake charmers, hoop performers, and pantomime performers. If you have time, go there and wander around. Medication is not an option either.”

Imperial Physician Lu's annual salary is only a few dozen taels of silver, so eager to give 20 taels of silver to Lu Yu, his thoughts are almost written on his face.

As long as Lu Yubie thinks about studying medicine and prescribing medicine every day, spending money is a trivial matter, I'm afraid he won't go out to spend it.

"Thank you dad, 20 taels of silver is enough for me, and I promise not to mess around with dad these few days."

"You child, even though Dad asked you to go out and spend money, it's not peaceful outside. Dad also knows that you can't stay in the mansion. When you go out, you should be more careful. These days, the mansion is hard to keep fit. The medicinal soup, more or less, you still have to drink some, don't think it's bitter."

"I know dad." Lu Yu agreed very happily.

With 20 taels of silver, the Lu family couldn't hold Lu Yu anymore, so they turned around and ran all over Qingcheng with the silver.

Most of the Qingcheng restaurants are closed, but the overpasses are half open and half closed, singing and dancing performances, opera drums, selling snacks for fortune telling, snake and cock fighting, even planting weeds to sell girls, all of which can be seen.

Alone Better Together.

Suining had to be invited.

With Lu Yu as the host, there are dozens of stores open in Tianqiao, you can choose whatever you want, and you can order snacks and drinks at will.

Xiang Suining has stayed in the mansion for a long time, and he is also going crazy. He finally went out for a walk, saw the people's livelihood on the bridge, and looked at the crowds here. Although they are not as crowded as in the past, they are popular after all. In this place, smelling the fragrance of powder in the air, the sweetness of pear juice, and the sourness of candied haws, I was immersed in it all at once, and even the man who was talking about telling fortunes was very attractive today. I guess it's been too long since I heard it.

Not far from the overpass are high and low pavilions and houses with flying eaves and roof ridges. Although the sky is dark and the winter is dry and cold, it is obviously very attractive because of its popularity.

The two have been walking along the long street next to the overpass for a while, eating half a bunch of candied haws, watching cockfights and ring traps for a while, five cents a lap, you can trap once, if you are lucky , can trap a goose.There are also people burning porcelain and blowing fire bottles along the street, which is very lively.

When the wind blew, Xiang Suining's hair flew up. Lu Yu looked at her with a smile, and held her head in both hands, like holding a big watermelon: "Such a strong wind, if you blow Xiang Er's hair The hair is blown away, and only this head is left, what should I do?"

"Aren't you a doctor? Prescribe some medicine to make my hair grow back." Xiang Suining took a bite of the candied haws.

"I'm not that talented, so I'd better protect your hair." Lu Yu smiled and stood facing the north wind, trying to shield Xiang Suining from the wind. After that, she threw herself into Xiang Suining's arms again, it was unstoppable.

Both of their faces turned red from the cold.

"Otherwise, let's find an attic and watch a show." Lu Yu suggested.

"What show do you want to watch?"

"Snake charmers and scorpion catching programs are probably not suitable for you as a girl." Lu Yu thought for a while, then pointed to the second attic on the left in the second row under the overpass and said, "If I remember correctly, there The dance is the best, otherwise, let's go and see."

Sure enough, most men like to watch singing and dancing.

Xiang Suining was almost leading the way: "Let's go, I heard that the dancers here are comparable to those in the palace. After staying at home for so many days, I can finally have fun."

"Xiang Er, how are you doing?" Lu Yu smiled wryly.

"what happened?"

"Anyway, you are a girl, so you go to the song and dance performance so blatantly, okay?"

"How about we go sneakily?"

Lu Yu laughed out loud, flaunted his purse, and said triumphantly, "I'm holding real money here, so don't be sneaky. Let's go, let's find a good place."

dance hall.

Although it was broad daylight, it was still a little dark inside. The arm-thick red candle was burning rustlingly, and the beating red light made people feel warm.

On the ground covered with a big red velvet carpet, stood a woman wearing a golden yellow dance dress with a navel, the bottom of the dance dress only reached her ankles, her feet were bare, and she wore a golden bell on her ankles. The woman covered her face with a yellow gauze. Wearing a high bun, besides a finger-thick golden hairpin, there are also some small strings of golden bells dotted on top of the high bun.

The woman's footsteps were spinning, and she quickly spun around on the carpet, the speed was so fast that it dazzled the eyes.

I only heard bursts of bells ringing, crisp and sweet, the woman's body gradually became invisible, and suddenly the woman leaned back, the back of her head was stuck to the ground, her whole body became an arch bridge, at this moment, suddenly appeared on the top of her head A dark purple ribbon, the woman in the dark purple dress is holding the ribbon with one hand, circling in the air, like a falling fairy, with a light tap of her toes, it lands on the woman in the golden dance dress, even more amazing Yes, the woman in the dark purple dress stood on the woman's belly and began to dance. Her footsteps were so light that there was almost no sound, and the woman in the golden dance dress who took over her kept the previous dance. Posture, motionless.

The perfect fit between the two is really beautiful.

A lot of people came to see the performance, and the first three rows were already full.

Lu Yu led Xiang Suining to pick the fifth row by the window. Although it was a little bit off, but because of the high position, it was clear at a glance.

The first was a round of peanuts and melon seeds. Xiang Suining picked up a pot of Biluochun and leaned against the corner to drink it slowly.

The first row is the best place, the small tables are spacious, and the waiters are also attentive. More importantly, it is very close to the stage, and you can count the number of golden bells on the ankles of the dancing girls.

Xiang Suining stared at it so intently that he forgot to chew the melon seeds in his mouth.

Lu Yu took a sip of tea, looked at the dancing girls, and turned to look at Xiang Suining intently.

Xiang Suining maintained that posture and did not move.

"Is it that good-looking?" Lu Yu smiled: "If you like it so much, I will bring you here next time."

"It's expensive here."

"What are you afraid of? As long as I don't do my job properly, my father will give me money."

"Actually, apart from doing nothing, occasionally, you can also do something serious."

"What's the matter?"

"For example, didn't you just inquire about Guo Kai's matter?"

"So you're talking about Guo Wei. I went to the palace that day, but I risked my life." Lu Yu grinned: "I made such a big sacrifice, Xianger, it's time for you to repay it." Already."
