Shao Renjun saw with his own eyes Shu Hui's collapse, and heard the imperial doctor's words that he would not survive three months.Not only did they not force him to move out of Dong's residence, they even sent an envoy to visit him every day.After the envoy went to Dong's mansion, he turned his head and went to the palace to report the situation, "Sure enough, Shu Hui's condition is getting worse day by day, and now there is not much food to eat, and only rely on the tonics such as ginseng and ganoderma stored in the mansion to barely survive. " Gou Yutian said, "I have two thousand-year-old ginsengs in my house, why don't you send them to Dong's house for me tomorrow." The envoy was very surprised when he heard this, "Since the prime minister has this good thing, why didn't he dedicate it to Shao Renjun? Going to give it to a half-dead inferior." Shao Renjun also looked sideways at Gou Yutian.Gou Yutian bowed his hands to Shao Renjun, and said, "The censor doesn't know something, and I did this for the sake of Renjun today." The envoy and Shao Renjun were even more puzzled, and asked, "What does the prime minister say?"

Gou Yutian said, "Shu Hui used to hold an important position in the court, and several ministers at the court made good friends with him. Although Shu Hui has no power and power now, and the few people have neglected to communicate with each other, the ministers knew Shu Hui's dismal appearance. It is inevitable that I feel sympathy, if Shao Renjun sends his ministers to send a thousand-year-old man to join him at this moment, the court will definitely praise the monarch's benevolence and generosity."

Shao Renjun nodded.Gou Yutian said again, "Shu Hui was trapped in the Mang State for 19 years, and during this period, there was no news of the new crown prince of the Yue State. If he was allowed to die of illness in the Mang State, Yue, Qi and other countries might reprimand Shao Renjun for his brutality and cruelty." And after the veteran sent ginseng to Shao Renjun, they may not say such things. Just a few ginseng can win people's hearts and appease the countries. Why not do it. Let alone think about the juniper Just relying on a few ginseng will not bring the dead back to life."

Shao Renjun ordered his envoy to bring ginseng to Dong's mansion, and he also took out antler and bird's nest supplements and asked the eunuch to send them.

One month later, Shu Hui was bedridden and unconscious all day long. Mrs. Dong and all the servants wept endlessly, and Shu Yin often served by the bedside.One day after drinking the medicine, Shu Hui vomited blood again, and the blood he spit out was no longer bright red, but purple black. Shu Yin hurriedly supported him, shouted a few times, and found that Shu Hui had passed out with a mouthful of dirty blood in his mouth , Shu Yin was so sad that she couldn't help crying.When Luo An came in, he secretly hid Dong Shi and asked him, "I see that my father's body may not last for a few days. Director Luo might as well prepare for the funeral in advance." Luo An also showed anxiety, and agreed vaguely , Immediately asked Gong Peiyin behind his back, "Sir, when will the medicine be stopped, Your Highness, if you continue to take this medicine like this, it may kill him." Gong Peiyin said, "When the real Tailing appears, You can stop the medicine, and then follow the real person's instructions, and my uncle's body will recover." Therefore, during the secret meeting, he had never heard of the real person of Tailing, Luo An asked doubtfully, "Why is there another real person of Tailing?" Gong Pei Yin smiled and said, "Isn't the prescription that my uncle is taking now the one that he drew up." Luo An was even more puzzled, "The prescription was clearly drawn up by Dr. Li, how many days has it been since Dr. Li became a real person?" Gong Peiyin said, " Master Tailing is a person who does things according to our wishes. When we need a prescription, he will make a prescription, and when we need an antidote, he will give the antidote. He can be Dr. Li or someone else." Luo An was stunned for a while. Startled.Pei Yin patted his shoulders and comforted, "Boss Luo, don't worry, everything is under your control. Once this real Tailing shows up, you can quickly prepare according to the previous plan."

It's only been a few days since I said this.Dong Shi stayed up all night beside Shu Hui, and his eyes were dizzy early in the morning, so he got up and went for a walk outside to refresh himself.When I arrived at the dining room, I heard that the boy who had just returned from shopping for vegetables was talking about Shu cypress's illness.Mrs. Dong has always been soft-hearted and kind-hearted, knowing that if she went in at this time, she would not make the servants look bad, so she went elsewhere.But when he turned around, he heard a little boy say, "I don't know where the poor Taoist came from. He heard that my uncle was sick, so he came to cheat money. A few pills cured my uncle's illness. Is it possible that the doctor who returned it could not be as good as him?" I'm a Taoist priest." Dong quickly stopped walking.He also heard another young man say, "But I heard that poor Taoist priest speak the truth. He even knew exactly when and how my uncle fell ill. I think I have to report this matter to Mr. Luo, regardless of whether the Taoist priest lied to me or not. People, we just report, they will tell the difference.” Hearing this, Mrs. Dong immediately came out from behind the door, and hurriedly asked the two of them, “Tell me where the Taoist priest is right now?” The servants suddenly With fear on their faces, they argued one after another, "We also heard what other people said, not what we saw with our own eyes." Mrs. Dong clenched her hands anxiously, "How long has it been? I'm still pushing back and forth, and I will tell you what I know." They didn't dare to shirk when they saw that Dong had lost her temper, so they just took her to a side door in a corner of Dong's mansion.

However, where is the Taoist priest seen at this moment? This early in the morning, not even a passer-by can be seen.The little fellow said, "I'm afraid I can't deceive us, so let's go." Dong scolded, "You are smart, and you don't know the details of others, so you say you are a deceiver. If the Taoist priest is really capable, wouldn't the uncle be deceived by you?" I was killed!" As soon as he said that, he wiped his tears with a handkerchief.Seeing this, the servant hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy, Dong Shi ordered them to search around quickly.

It turned out that the Taoist priest hadn't gone far, and the boys turned a corner and found him at the intersection. When they saw him, they couldn't help but tugged at their sleeves and left.The Taoist refused, but the servant hurriedly ouched, "Old Taoist, don't dawdle, our lady is anxious to see you after hearing that you can cure illnesses." Then he brought the Taoist to Mrs. Dong .

Mrs. Dong saw that the Taoist priest was slightly fat, wearing a green cloth straight-fronted Taoist robe, about six or seventy years old, with white eyebrows and hair, a white beard more than a foot long, holding a dust whisk in his arm.Mrs. Dong immediately greeted him by calling "Taoist Priest" into the house, and while ordering someone to hold tea, she said, "Just now, the servants were rude to you, I hope the Taoist Priest will not be offended."

The old Taoist looked indifferent, his eyes were slightly open, he stood upright and did not take the tea.Seeing this, Mrs. Dong quietly asked Yun Su to go to the house to fetch 20 taels of silver, and then asked, "Master Taoist, I heard that you can cure my master's illness?" The Taoist nodded and shook his head slightly.Mrs. Dong didn't know what he meant, but when she thought of Shu Hui's situation at this time, she couldn't help but shed tears in her eyes, and said, "Master, my master's health is getting worse day by day, if you can cure him, we are willing to treat him no matter how much money Here." Just as she was speaking, Yun Su brought the money.Mrs. Dong took out the two ingots of silver ingots wrapped in a handkerchief, and said with a forced smile, "Master Dao, this is a small greeting gift, please accept it." The two eyeballs under the eyelids moved to glance at the silver ingot, and with a movement of the wide sleeve, he put the ingot into the sleeve.

I only heard the Taoist say, "If Miss Dong is willing to do what I say, then the aunt's illness will hopefully improve. But if there is one thing in the middle that doesn't follow the promise, not only will the condition worsen, I'm afraid the gods will also be in trouble." saved."

When Mrs. Dong heard that Shu Hui was saved, she quickly wiped away her tears and said anxiously, "Why don't you follow what the Taoist priest said, please save our master quickly?"

The Taoist took out a small ceramic pot in the shape of a gourd from his bosom, and said, "I obtained the pills in this jar five years ago when I went to the Nanhai Xianguan. Lifespan. Seriously ill patients, take one tablet every three days. After [-] days, their spirits will recover and their thoughts will be clear. After [-] days, they can walk on the ground and eat normal food. Pay more attention to diet and rest, if there is no recurrence, take the remaining one after three years, and the body will not only recover, but also be a hundred times healthier than before." Dong was grateful, took the gourd, and called Yun Su sent money.But the Taoist said again, "It's just that during the period of taking the medicine, there is something that needs to be done." Mrs. Dong hurriedly asked what was the matter.The Taoist said, "There is Tailing Mountain in the southeast corner of Wei Tuo. There is a Tailing Temple on the top of Tailing Mountain. There is a spring in the temple. This spring only has water in early summer and the rest is dry. Since ancient times, Tailing Mountain is the residence of gods and saints. If the whole family can go out to pay homage to the fairy water from the fairy mountain, ask for the spring water, and take the pills with the spring water, it will definitely increase its efficacy." Mrs. Dong thanked again and again when she heard that Yun Su came in with a plate of silver ingots , Mrs. Dong offered it to the Taoist, and the Taoist did not refuse. He took out a square black cotton cloth from his pocket, put the silver in it, and tied two knots diagonally to carry it in his hand.

Dong fully believed that this magical medicine could cure Shu Juniper's disease, so she immediately called Yun Su to serve Shu Juniper in the room.But Luo An heard the boy's report and rushed over to stop him, and said, "I don't know if this medicine is good or bad. The young lady is also confused, and she doesn't know what's wrong, so I want to give it to my uncle. What if it spoils?" He snatched the gourd jar from Yun Su's hand, unplugged it and smelled it, it turned out to be a cool and light fragrance, only to shake the spirits of those who smell it, and the filthy smell went away, Luo An murmured, "It's really It smells refreshing." Then he asked Mrs. Dong, "Miss, what did the Taoist say?" Mrs. Dong said exactly what the Taoist said.Luo An just heard about Tailing Mountain and Tailing Temple, he was startled immediately, recalling what Pei Yin said a few days ago about Tailing Daoist, he wondered if this Taoist is Tailing Daoist.Thinking of this, he hurried out to look for it, but he searched for a whole day, but he didn't see any real Taoist priests.When I returned to the mansion, I wanted to ask Pei Yin carefully, but it happened that Pei Yin was visiting in the Shu cypress room, so Luo An went.As soon as he entered the room, he saw Shu Yin, Mrs. Dong and all the serving maids and servants with joyful expressions on their faces. Looking over, he saw Gong Peiyin sitting in front of the bed, with two fingers on the veins of Shu Juniper. , and Shu Hui's complexion is no longer as purple and black as yesterday, although it is still pale, but there seems to be some complexion in the pale.Luo An inquired from the side, and knew that he just went to Dong's, so he decided to give Shu Hui the pill to take, and after taking it, Shu Hui's cough stopped, and his breathing was so stable. Symptoms such as vomiting blood.Luo An stood there blankly for a while, seeing that Shu Hui's bed was surrounded by people, he sighed slightly, and quietly left the room with a faint smile on his face.That night, I went out of the city to settle down and start working.

After Shu Hui took the medicine for nine days, as the Taoist said, he was no longer drowsy and became conscious.The envoy who visited Dong's mansion every day reported the matter to Shao Renjun. Shao Renjun was shocked and ordered Gou Yutian and others to bring the imperial physician to visit.Shu cypress had been taking medicine for half a month that day, and she was still able to sit up. When she saw Gou Yutian and others, she didn't get out of bed to kowtow, but just lazily leaned on the bed.

Gou Yutian went to the bed and took a closer look at Shu Juniper. He saw that his complexion was ruddy and his breathing was even, which was not comparable to the previous few months. So he glanced at the imperial physician at the side and said, "Come here quickly to see how the condition is for Prince Yue? How dare you come again?" Speech nonsense, go back to the palace and see how your majesty treats you!"

The imperial physician was obedient, came forward with a medicine box, Shu Hui stretched out his wrist from under the quilt, because he hadn't eaten raw in two months, his wrist was already as thin as a ten-year-old child.As soon as the imperial doctor felt the pulse, he immediately opened his eyes in shock, opened Shu Hui's eyelids, and took a closer look before leaving.

Gou Yutian asked, "How?"

The imperial physician bowed his head and did not dare to speak.

Knowing that the situation was different, Gou Yutian took the imperial physician away on the pretext of urgent matters in the palace.

As soon as he left Dong's mansion, he asked the imperial physician, "Shicai hesitated to say anything. I don't know why? Has the cypress disease been cured?"

The imperial doctor hurriedly explained the condition of Shu Hui just seen, "This person had only liver, lung and spleen failure before. Today, the veteran inspected the pulse and found that the heart and kidneys have also begun to fail. I am afraid that he will only have ten days to live."

Gou Yutian stared and said, "Do you think I'm blind? Just now I saw that he was full of energy in his speech and his face was full of vigor. Although I don't know medical skills, this is definitely not a sign of only ten days of life."

The imperial physician said, "The qi on the face is exactly the stasis in the body caused by severe illness and hot flashes. The prime minister does not know that when the body dies, in order to avoid leaving regrets, there will be a short period of sobriety to explain the funeral. This kind of situation is the flashback, once the flashback is over, the person will die soon."

Gou Yutian grabbed the imperial physician's sleeve and hurriedly asked, "How many days will this flashback last?"

The imperial physician said, "No more than three days at the latest."

Gou Yutian reported the truth to Shao Renjun.Shao Renjun had already planned to take Shu Hui to move out of Dong's residence, so he gave up.

Because Mrs. Dong was concerned about what the Taoist said about Tailing Mountain, she also entered the palace together when Wushuang returned to the palace to visit her relatives.Mrs. Dong knelt down in front of Shao Renjun Hall, bowed down with tears in her eyes, and begged him to allow everyone in Dong's mansion to worship the gods out of returning to the city.Wu Shuang also shed tears to persuade her.Shao Renjun thought that it was just nonsense of charlatans, but the two women believed it, and immediately filled with disdain, he said, "I allow you to leave the palace, but you need to let the envoy lead three teams to escort you."

Dong Shi and Wu Shuang were immediately grateful.
