Zhao Liulang walked up to Bai Erlang and wandered around, "We are also relatives, so call my cousin?"
Shirajiro: ...
Everyone joked around Bai Erlang for a while before letting him go. Like Liu Huan, some people in the Chongwen Museum felt that being a son-in-law is worse than being a son-in-law of a rich family, and some of them envied Bai Erlang.
The most important thing is that they have checked their family backgrounds, and they don't know where they are wrong. How come the emperor can't even meet them to make Bai Er
Besides being two years younger than them, what other advantages does Bai Er have
But no matter how unconvinced they were in their hearts, facing Bai Erlang at this time, everyone still squeezed out smiles to congratulate him.
Not only the people in the Chongwen Museum, but even many ministers in the court did not expect that Bai Cheng hired Princess Mingda in the end.
It's a pity that no one in the Bai family is an official in the court, so everyone congratulated Mr. Zhou Manzhuang after attending the court meeting.
Man Bao, who was inexplicably congratulated because his younger brother became a son-in-law: ...
Even Mr. Zhuang was stunned for a moment before he realized it, so he quickly returned the gift and thanked him, because Bai Er, he bent more today than the two previous big courts combined.
Prince Gong was the last group of people in the palace to get the news. After all, he was injured, and no one would deliberately mention this in front of him.
It was only when Princess Gong mentioned that he needed to prepare some makeup for Mingda and Changyu that he knew that Mingda was engaged.
Prince Gong asked: "Mingda's marriage has also been settled? Whose family's son?"
Princess Gong glanced at him and said, "It's settled, Bai Cheng of the Bai family in Mianzhou."
"..." Prince Gong couldn't help but straightened his waist slightly, "Who?"
"Bai Cheng." Princess Gong said: "My ancestral home is in Longzhou, so he can be considered a family..."
Prince Gong shook his lips and said, "What family? Isn't it Zhou Man's younger brother?"
Princess Gong stopped talking.
Prince Gong was disgusted and said: "Why did the father take a fancy to him? How can he be worthy of Mingda?"
Concubine Gong said: "The queen mother is also very satisfied."
Prince Gong felt as uncomfortable as swallowing a fly, and when Zhou Man came to change his dressing, his eyes were not eyes, and his nose was not a nose.
Man Bao didn't care, took the medicine and told the people around him to keep an eye on him before leaving.
Prince Gong's injury has improved, and his leg is definitely not going to recover as before. The Queen's condition is also improving, at least she is out of danger, and she won't have to stay in bed every day.
Only then did the emperor deal with the crooked bones of Prince Gong, and Xiao Yuanzheng was deprived of the post of director and downgraded to the fifth rank.
It's just that in Xiao Yuanzheng's view, the deduction of salary and demotion are really not worth mentioning.
The position of the chief of the imperial hospital was lost in an instant, and the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital all paid attention.
Under Xiaoyuan, there are three fifth-rank imperial physicians, one is Liu imperial physician, the other is Lu imperial physician, and there was also an imperial physician Ji before, but imperial physician Ji resigned, so now only imperial physician Liu and imperial physician Lu can compete for this hospital. Right post.
Among them, Imperial Physician Lu has the most advantage, because Imperial Physician Liu is old, and he seldom takes care of the affairs of the imperial hospital, not as much as Imperial Physician Lu handles.
The Tai Hospital is different from other departments. The heads of other departments have to ask the courtiers for their opinions, but the Tai Hospital can be appointed by the emperor.
The emperor didn't even think about asking the courtiers' opinions, so he asked Xiao Yuanzheng, who did Xiao Yuanzheng think could take over the post of Yuanzheng
Xiao Yuanzheng did not directly propose Imperial Physician Liu, but only commented on Imperial Physician Liu and Imperial Physician Lu. He thought that Imperial Physician Liu was superb in medical skills, with a peaceful personality but too gentle;
The emperor pondered for a while, and when he met Zhou Man at the empress's place, he asked, "Do you think it's better to be the doctor Liu, or the doctor Lu?"
Without even thinking about it, Man Bao said, "Doctor Liu."
The emperor didn't expect her to be so direct, he said "Oh" and asked with a smile, "Why?"
Man Bao said: "Because of the stability, Imperial Physician Liu is the director of the hospital, and the decision made by the Imperial Hospital Xiao will not change a lot, but Imperial Doctor Lu is different. He is in the prime of life, and some of his ideas are different from the previous decisions of the Imperial Hospital. It’s not the same, he is the director of the hospital, so it needs to be changed.”
The emperor was thoughtful, "Physician Lu is also for the good of the Imperial Hospital, can you make the Imperial Hospital better and better?"
"Okay," Man Bao said, "it's not bad to change, but at this time the Imperial Medical Office has only been open for a year, and the previous policy has only stabilized, so it is not appropriate to change it. If your majesty asks me a few years later, I may Said that Lu is a doctor."
The queen on the side smiled and said, "It's not that Imperial Physician Lu is not capable enough, but that he is not suitable to be the chief official at this time?"
Man Bao nodded.
The emperor thought about it, nodded and let her back down.
Man Bao also changed the medicine patch for the queen, put away the medicine box and resigned.
After she left, the queen sighed, "This view is many times better than that of the imperial physician in the same hospital. If the imperial hospital is handed over to her in the future..."
The emperor came back to his senses, "She is still young, she is not suitable, let's talk about the future."
He didn't think there was anything wrong with a woman being the chief official, it was very different from when Zhou Man felt inappropriate to be a sixth-rank official.
The queen raised her lips and mentioned another matter, "I heard that the queen asked people to go to Longzhou to buy the statue of Lao Tzu."
emperor:…
After returning from Xuandu Temple, the more the Queen Mother thought about it, the more unwilling she became. She still felt that the statue of Lao Tzu that Zhou Man worshiped was the best, so she called her family into the palace and asked people to bring money to Longzhou to buy the statue of Old Master Liu. The portrait of Lao Tzu sent out by others.
Just didn't buy it.
The Queen said: "I heard that the statue of Lao Tzu has been bid for two thousand taels, my cousin and the others also took out two bolts of silk, and now the Zhang family still refuses to let go."
The emperor now has a toothache when he hears the amount of money. He asked, "The money given by the empress?"
The queen shook her head, "I don't know if it's the queen mother's body, or the cousins paid for it themselves. It's fine if it's the mother's body, but if the Dou family paid for it themselves..."
The emperor felt a headache even more, he thought for a while and said: "Forget it, let my cousin take him back, it's not like spending money at home."
The main reason is that the money spent by the Dou family will definitely be recovered from him in the end. He lost money, but the Dou family may not make money, and it is not worth it.
The queen also thought so, and said with a smile: "The queen mother is devout and doesn't want to buy it by force, so I thought it would be better for me to come forward and exchange the things."
It's not easy for the emperor to come forward in this kind of thing, and the queen mother wants to be pious, so only the queen can come.
She said: "Choose a similar portrait of Lao Tzu from the warehouse, and give some copybooks to the old master of the Zhang family. I think they will agree to change it."
The emperor snorted and said, "Take out a copybook from Zitong's hand. It's worth a thousand gold. Of course they agreed to change it."
Seeing his distress, the queen smiled and said, "I'll give you one too."
That's it.
The Zhang family was indeed very happy when they received the things from the queen. Mrs. Zhang took a look at the copybook, and immediately asked someone to take out the portrait of Lao Tzu sent by Mrs. Liu to the servant.
Then he took the copybook and went back to the study without going out.
