What Princess Mingda said is right, there is no one in the civil and military courts who can see the holy face more and more easily than Xiao Yuan.
He fixedly sees every other day, occasionally every day.
Xiao Yuan was walking to the Tai Chi Hall to ask for an audience.
The little servant hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is meeting Master Luo Er, Xiao Yuan is waiting, our family will report back now."
Xiao Yuanzheng frowned slightly, lowered his voice and asked, "Has Your Majesty taken the pill again?"
The little servant dared not answer such a question, and hurried into the hall without saying a word.
Xiao Yuanzheng frowned, his face became serious, he squeezed the folds of his sleeves, originally he was only half-hearted, whether it would happen or not, but now he was very much thinking about it, it must be done.
After a while, the servant came over and asked Xiao Yuanzheng to enter the hall.
Xiao Yuan was entering with his servants, and the emperor was sitting face to face with a monk with white eyebrows and white hair. The monk did not look like a Central Plains monk, even different from the monks in the Western Regions. I heard that he was a holy monk from Tianzhu.
Although he had only been in the palace for less than half a year, Xiao Yuanzheng hated this person very much and was very wary.
But after all, he has served the imperial court for more than ten years, and his superficial skill is not bad, even better than all the officials in the court.
He does not have the wisdom and eloquence of a hundred officials, but in terms of restrained expression and no emotion, I am afraid that no one in the whole court can compare with him.
Xiao Yuan was entering, saluted respectfully and said: "Your Majesty, I have come to ask for your pulse."
The emperor laughed and said, "Didn't you just ask for your pulse yesterday?"
Xiao Yuanzheng said: "Looking at His Majesty's pulse yesterday, there seems to be a fever in the body, but it is not serious, but at this time, the seasons are changing, and I am worried, so I want to come to ask for a pulse every day."
The emperor smiled and stretched out his hand and said, "It's just right, I just took the pill of immortality, how about my pulse?"
Xiao Yuanzheng glanced at the monk calmly, answered yes with a smile, stepped forward and half-kneeled to take the emperor's hand, closed his eyes slightly, and felt his pulse.
Half a day later, Xiao Yuanzheng withdrew his hand, and said with a smile to the emperor: "Your Majesty's pulse seems to be stronger, but the heat in his body is also heavier. After all, I am an ordinary doctor, so I can't get more pulse."
The emperor felt that it was boring, "You always say that every time you help Bulao Dan. You are already the best imperial physician in my imperial court. If you can't get it out, who can get it out?"
Xiao Yuanzheng said with a smile: "Your Majesty, isn't there a miracle doctor in court? You forgot, she is the reincarnation of Taibai."
emperor:…
He looked at Xiao Yuanzheng helplessly, others don't know how Zhou Man and Zhou Taibai got their name, how can the two of them not know
Isn't it because he asked Bai Er to write the book design
Xiao Yuanzheng said with a smile: "Although the folk rumors are exaggerated, Your Majesty knows that Mr. Zhou's medical skills are indeed good. When she was still in Beijing, she was on par with my ministers. Now she has gone out to practice for five years. , I am afraid that the medical skills will be even higher."
The emperor's heart moved slightly, "I heard the rumors outside that Tang He was poisoned at the time, and he was about to die when he was sent to Beihai County. In the end, Zhou Man still saved him?"
"Yes," Xiao Yuanzheng said with a smile, "I never thought that Lord Zhou would have achieved such an achievement in detoxification in just five years."
The emperor was heartbroken, but soon lost his temper, and sighed: "She is now an order of the Qingzhou Medical Department, so I can't recall her back to Beijing if there is nothing important."
Originally, the court had a lot of opinions on his alchemy, but knowing that he hastily sent Zhou Man back to Beijing for this reason, I am afraid that the opinions will be even greater.
Xiao Yuanzheng immediately took out the booklet in his sleeve and said: "Your Majesty, Qingzhou Medical Department has been managed by Mr. Zhou for five years, and now it is on the right track. Now the medical departments in various places are operating according to the experience of Qingzhou Medical Department. The purpose of letting the adults out has been achieved."
Xiao Yuanzheng said: "Master Zhou has Zheng Gu under his command, so he can completely take over Master Zhou's work, but there are still some problems when the local medical offices refer to the progress of the Qingzhou Medical Office. For example, the local medical offices have insufficient funds and insufficient medicinal materials. Big problem."
"At this time, one person needs to be in charge to mediate. I think there is no more suitable person than Mr. Zhou, who single-handedly established the Qingzhou Medical Department."
The emperor took the notebook, unfolded it and asked, "What is this?"
"This is Master Zhou's proposal to establish medicine workshops in order to fund the development of medical offices in various places," Xiao Yuanzheng sighed, "I owe you a holy grace, and my medical skills are not bad, but in the overall situation, I still have a long-term vision. It is not as good as Mr. Zhou, so he is also tied up in the department and often feels difficult to use, so I propose to transfer Zhou Man back to Beijing to take charge of the overall situation of the Imperial Medical Department."
The emperor was surprised, "Are you going to give up the post of order of the Imperial Medical Administration to Zhou Man?"
Xiao Yuan was choking, although he had no intention of doing so, but the emperor said so, he could only grit his teeth and nod, "Yes, I would like to abdicate for the virtuous, Lord Zhou is more suitable for this position than I."
"No," the emperor said with a serious face, "Isn't that just to encourage the growth of seedlings? How old is Zhou Man?"
"And it's not right to be promoted from an official position," the emperor said, "Is the Qingzhou Medical Department's official rank fourth or fifth rank?"
Gu Zhong hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Qingzhou is the fifth rank."
The emperor then said to Xiao Yuan: "Look, it's not suitable."
Gu Zhong glanced at the monk who kept his eyes slightly closed, as if he was resting, and glanced at his apprentice.
The little servant immediately brought up a teapot, Gu Zhong took it, and stepped forward to refill tea for the emperor and the monk with a smile.
The sound of water brought the emperor back to his senses, he raised his eyes and saw the monk with closed eyes resting his mind, he paused and said with a smile: "Master is tired, let's play chess here today, Gu Zhong, Send the master out of the palace."
"yes."
The monk got up and said goodbye.
After he left, the emperor turned his head and said to Xiao Yuan, "Do you want Zhou Man to take your hand?"
Xiao Yuanzheng bowed slightly and said: "I think this is already a recognized result."
The emperor said playfully: "I thought Aiqing and the courtiers preferred Luo Aiqing."
Xiao Yuanzheng said: "Master Luo is very capable of handling affairs, he is indeed a rare capable minister, but he does not know medical skills, he does not know medical principles, I am afraid that it is not appropriate to be an order of the Imperial Medical Office, and in terms of ability to handle affairs, Lord Zhou is still there. above him."
The emperor did not deny this, "But it is not appropriate for Zhou Man to assume the position at this time."
The emperor said: "The time is wrong."
Xiao Yuanzheng: He didn't even think about making Zhou Man the official order now, you didn't mention it yourself.
The two looked at each other and didn't speak for a while.
Gu Zhong walked in quietly, stepped forward to bring the monk's tea to the apprentice, and asked him to take it away, he seemed to see the embarrassment between the emperor and Xiao Yuanzheng, and said with a smile: "Xiao Yuanzheng, isn't Imperial Physician Liu intending to retire? Is it? Doesn’t the Imperial Medical Office want to vacate a seat?”
"That position is... Imperial Physician Lu..." Xiao Yuan was speechless when he saw the emperor's brightened face.
The emperor asked: "It has been decided to be the doctor Lu? Why didn't I receive the paperwork?"
"No," Xiao Yuanzheng said with a complicated heart: "It's just that I think so..." Many imperial physicians in the Imperial Medical Office agreed.
But at this moment, he was really relieved.
