The emperor immediately withdrew his mournful expression, and his face turned serious, "It doesn't hurt anymore, it's just that I don't feel well on my body, and it's even more uncomfortable in my heart."
He said: "As long as I think of Ai Qing's illness, I can't eat and I wish I could replace it with my own body."
It was Wei Zhi who knew in his heart that these were just sweet words from the emperor, but he was still a little moved, so he stopped stabbing him about pretending to have a stomachache.
However, the emperor had already glanced at Zhou Man, and Man Bao immediately said vigilantly: "The heat will cause poor appetite, and then it will also affect the stomach, and abdominal pain is also an occasional symptom."
The emperor was satisfied, Wei Zhi had already decided to let the matter go, so naturally he would not hold on to it anymore, so he nodded slightly.
After dinner, the emperor pointed to Wei Zhi and Zhou Man and said, "Zhou Qing and Mr. Wei go back, and let Mr. Wei take a good look."
Man Bao responded, got up and picked up the medicine box and said, "Your Majesty, the ministers around Shenshi are here to give you medicine and moxibustion."
Wei Zhi was taken aback for a moment, and after following Zhou Man out, he asked, "Is Your Majesty really sick?"
Man Bao nodded, "Master Wei, am I the kind of person who talks nonsense?"
Wei Zhi didn't come to a conclusion, he glanced back and saw that Bai Shan had also quit, so he said with a smile: "I just had lunch, you guys go back to rest first."
Man Bao thought the same way, "I'll give you an injection in half an hour."
Seeing that she didn't understand what he meant, Wei Zhi was about to explain, but Man Bao said: "Master Wei, I'm here to see a doctor by order, so don't hide your illness from the doctor, otherwise, not only will it be hard for me to explain to your Majesty, but how will you advise me in the future?" Where is the emperor?"
Wei Zhi didn't speak any more, and went down the mountain first.
Man Bao and Bai Shan followed behind.
Bai Shan reached out to take the medicine box in Man Bao's hand, and carried it down side by side with her. The Longevity Hall was not very far from where they lived, and they could turn into the group of courtyards after walking a mountain road.
Man Bao and Master Wei lived not far away, separated by two courtyards.
Lest he go back on his word, Man Bao didn't go back to his yard, but followed him directly into his place.
With a helpless expression on his face, Wei Zhi could only follow the couple in.
He didn't bring his family over here, oh, Wei Yu is his youngest son, he did come, but he lives in another palace with Princess Changyu.
The old servant serving Wei Zhi saw that the master had brought the guests back, so he immediately called for someone to cook, Wei Zhi stopped him and said, "We all ate there, there is no need to make any more, let's make a pot of tea."
The old servant answered and bowed to make tea.
After entering the room, Wei Zhi sat on a chair, asked the two of them to sit down, rolled up his sleeves and asked Zhou Man, "Look now?"
In fact, there is no need to look at it anymore, Man Bao already knew it well, and she followed Wei Zhi to discuss the next treatment method with Wei Zhi, and to give him a set of needles.
But it was rare to see him cooperate so well, so Man Bao didn't mind taking his pulse again, and it would be good to talk about his condition while taking the pulse.
Man Bao said a lot, but Wei Zhi only said one sentence after pondering, "I only have two days of vacation."
Man Bao: ...
She didn't quite understand, "Why does Master Wei not cherish his body so much, isn't it good to live?"
Looking at the somewhat confused Zhou Man, Wei Zhi knew that what she said was not to refute him, but was genuinely curious, so he smiled and said, "It's good to live, but it also depends on how you live."
He said: "I can't leave the court for the time being. I can live here for a month, but I can live for ten years after I resign."
Man Bao didn't speak.
Withdrawing his hand, he said: "You should use the decoction for the next two days, and I will ask Xiao Yuanzheng to prepare honey pills for you. First, you should take an injection every three days, but you should also pay attention to rest, don't be too distressed."
Wei Zhi smiled and nodded.
Man Bao prescribed the medicine, but did not give it to Wei Zhi. Anyway, the medicine had to be caught in the Tai Hospital, so she only showed him once.
Man Bao returned to Tai Hospital with the prescription, handed the prescription to Doctor Duan, and asked him to grab the medicine and send it to Wei Zhi, and then returned to his yard with Bai Shan.
Bai Shan took her hand and shook her, comforting her: "Master Wei is not sad, why are you even more sad?"
"Doctors will always be sad and angry when they see patients not cherishing their bodies so much."
But Bai Shan said: "You are the patient's doctor, Mr. Wei is the doctor of Jin Dynasty, if you judge others by yourself, you will know why he refuses to rest and recuperate."
Man Bao frowned, "There are not many capable ministers in the court."
"There are quite a few capable ministers in the court, but there is only one Master Wei." Bai Shandao: "Seriously, there is only Sir Wei in the court. If the official is vacant, there must be many people competing for this position in the court."
Anyone who is an official in the court, who doesn't want to be a marquis and a prime minister
Especially for civil servants, it is even more of a lifelong pursuit to worship the prime minister.
Man Bao frowned and said: "With His Majesty here, there will be no confusion, right?"
"It's not chaotic, but the successor may not have the tacit understanding between Lord Wei and His Majesty, and," Bai Shan said after a pause, "Among the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, only Wei Wei is the one who dares to truly face His Majesty's anger and insist on admonishing him." Adults alone."
Even if the emperor made a mistake, he would be impeached by ministers. Everyone seems to be honest and honest, but that's because they know that Wei Zhi is there. Even if they impeached something wrong, the emperor can't do anything to them. If the emperor blames the speech officials, this will make the officials in the court feel jealous and cut off the way of speech.
"If there is no Lord Wei, His Majesty will be angry, and they will take advantage of the situation and accept the advice. After one or two times, His Majesty will only have nothing to fear."
Bai Shan has been by the emperor's side for more than a year. Apart from handing out papers to the emperor, what he does most every day is to sit with Qi Jilang and watch the emperor discuss matters with the ministers, and take some notes from time to time for the emperor to ask.
He may not have the emperor's understanding of the attitude of the ministers, but he must have seen it more carefully and comprehensively than ordinary ministers.
Moreover, "No one understands my political intentions better than myself." Bai Shan lowered his voice and said, "Master Wei must still have a lot of things to do in his heart, and he won't think about leaving before he finishes those things." Courtesy."
Man Bao said: "He won't have that time."
The operation of the country cannot be changed overnight, and it is not something that can be accomplished in one or two years. With Wei Zhi's physical condition, if he continues to work without restraint, he will not have a good life for a few years.
Bai Shan sighed and said, "It's better than leaving directly, and Da Jin really can't do without Master Wei at this time."
The emperor said the same to the empress, and sighed: "Wei Qing quietly discussed the salt tax reform with me some time ago, and wanted to gradually implement it, but I didn't expect him to be seriously ill now."
"The salt tax needs to be changed, and it won't be effective in three to five years. I... can't do without him."
The queen asked softly: "Who in the court can replace him?"
The emperor shook his head, "No one can replace you."
Those who have Wei Zhi's strength of character do not have his ability, and those who have his ability do not have his strength of character and prestige, so this matter must be done by him.
