Chapter 143: Horrible
In the fifth year of Yonghui, Emperor Li Zhi renamed Jiucheng Palace as Wannian Palace. In the second year of Qianfeng, after Li Zhi returned from Mount Tai, he fell seriously ill and felt that no one in the world could truly live forever, so he changed Wannian Palace back to its original name Jiucheng Palace.
Jiucheng also means nine layers, or nine layers, symbolizing its height and majesty.
Li Zhi believed that the sky was not complete, and Jiucheng also meant that the nine layers of success could not be completed, leaving one point to the fate of heaven. It can be seen that in the face of life and death, it is useless to be stubborn.
Under the waterfall, water flows like beads. Li Zhi held up a magnifying glass and read the memorial in his hand. Then he said to Ruichun who was beside him: "Yunchu said in the letter that the Qinling Mountains are extremely dry and we must prevent fire attacks. What do you think?"
Ruichun smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Xue Rengui is the leader of your Majesty's Dragon and Tiger Guards. Your Majesty should ask him."
Li Zhi smiled and said: "Seeing that you are so calm, it seems that you have a ready-made rule on how to prevent fire attacks?"
Ruichun said: "The general said, just fire attack!"
Li Zhi said: "It seems that fire attacks are not a concern. Then, what do you think Yunchu's sudden letter to tell me to beware of fire attacks means?"
Ruichun put away his smile and said: "It should be related to his recent busy house raiding."
Li Zhi smiled: "The house raiding in Fufeng and Taibai is indeed quite far away, and it is enough for him to be busy. Does he think he is powerful and wants to protect more people?"
Ruichun said with a fake smile: "Big people all have this problem."
Li Zhi sighed and said, "Yes, the former idiot has now grown into a big man, and he has more things to think about."
"How about reprimanding him?"
Li Zhi waved his hand and said, "Don't say anything. He is waiting for me to reprimand him. As long as I reprimand him, it means that this matter is over. Since he thinks he has become a big man, he should be treated as a big man."
Rui Chun whispered, "Big men are arrogant..."
"Yun Chu is also arrogant, but he regards Chang'an as more important than his life. After dealing with the personnel this time, you will see that Chang'an will have a new change."
Rui Chun sighed and said, "Chang'an, Chang'an... What will Chang'an become?"
Li Zhi murmured, "I am also curious... Yun Chu took such a risk, my brothers should be useful to him."
Li Zhi's expression just sagged for a moment, and when he raised his head again, his face was tight and he looked cold and ruthless.
"Tell Yunchu that if he dares to set foot in the Sixteen Guards of Chang'an, I will not forgive him."
Ruichun waved his hands repeatedly and said, "He shouldn't dare."
Li Zhi said with a gloomy face, "I'm afraid he really thinks he is a big shot who dares to get involved in everything."
Li Zhi thought that there were three big shots in the Tang Dynasty, let alone adding one more.
Fortunately, after Yunchu confiscated those manors, he sent all the things that he couldn't find from Fufeng and Taibai to Jiucheng Palace, and by the way, he cared about the emperor's safety in the memorial, which prevented the emperor from exploding. However, this was already very risky.
Li Zhi seriously suspected that this was an action by Yunchu to test his bottom line.
First, do something that may cause his dissatisfaction while the feelings are strong, and see what the result will be. If the emperor is not angry, he will continue to test it with more serious things until the emperor can no longer bear it, and then stop.
Finally, the last thing he did became his standard of behavior. As long as he didn't cross the line, he was basically safe.
Li Zhi decided not to indulge Yun Chu's bad habits. The first attempt must be strictly stopped, so as not to make Yun Chu forget himself in the final attempt and force him to deal with Yun Chu severely.
Therefore, Ruichun, who had been promoted to the chief steward of the Hundred Cavalry Division, hurried to Chang'an with a group of people.
The emperor did not doubt Zhou Xing's ability, but he doubted that Yun Chu could check and balance Zhou Xing. After sending Ruichun, the chief steward, it was to prevent Yun Chu from checking and balancing Zhou Xing.
Yun Chu invited Ji Wangshen to take a bath together.
In the big bathhouse in Jinchangfang. The two lay naked in the hot water pool, glaring at each other through the steam.
After staring at each other for a while, Yun Chu leaned against the pool, scooped up some water to wash his face and said, "The drought is severe, I need food and grass."
Ji Wangshen said, "I have food and grass at home, just tell me how much you need and I'll give it to you."
Yun Chu smiled and said, "Are you familiar with Yue Wang Li Zhen?"
Ji Wangshen said, "That's my mynah bird."
Yun Chu said, "I heard that this person is smart and studious, and he is called 'Ji, Yue' with you?"
Ji Wangshen said, "We are brothers, and it's not taboo to have family letters?"
Yun Chu said, "I think this is very normal, but I don't know what others think."
Ji Wangshen fell into the water and sank his whole body to the bottom of the water. Just when Yun Chu thought he was about to drown, At that time, this guy suddenly stood up from the bottom of the water, walked to Yun Chu in three or two steps and said: "Can't I protect myself?"
Yun Chu shook his head and said: "From your majesty's perspective, he has deep feelings for you, and the Tang Dynasty is a peaceful country, why do you want to protect yourself? If you have the thought of protecting yourself, it is a disrespectful act."
Ji Wang Shen said: "Brothers for many years, if you want to attack me, at least tell me first?"
Yun Chu said: "It is because we are brothers for many years that I didn't tell you, otherwise we would be conspiring, and when the emperor wants to chop off my head, he will chop off my head as well.
Don't talk about other things, talk about Li Zhen first."
Ji Wangshen sat quietly on the edge of the pool, constantly rubbing his hairy calves with his hands, trying to get out some dirt. Unfortunately, his body was very clean. Apart from tearing off a few leg hairs, there was nothing else. Didn't rub it off.
"You're going to carry it to death, right?
Li Zhen, the king of Yue, Li Ming, the king of Cao, Li Yuanjia, the king of Han, Li Lingkui, the king of Lu who was killed by the Tongtian Pillar, Li Yuangui, the king of Huo, Li Zhuan, the prince of Huang Guogong, the son of Yuanjia, Li Ai, the king of Fanyang, the son of Lingkui, Li Xu, the king of Jiangdu, the son of Yuangui... You still want me to continue talking? ? "
Ji Wangshen did not look scared at this moment, and said with a smile: "How much time do we have?"
Yun Chu said: "From the beginning to the end, you have had no time. You always think that it is easy for me to deal with Baiqisi. Many times, you can even treat them like monkeys. You just take it for granted that the people of Baiqisi are just a bunch of losers." ?
Among the people I mentioned, at least two are emperors or empresses. You have no secrets in front of the emperor or empress.
In addition, among the seventeen Taoist boys who studied medicine with the old immortal, which one is your son? "
Li Shenba gritted his teeth but didn't utter a word.
Yun Chu said angrily: "He must be the stupidest one."
Li Shen roared: "Yun Chu, you have insulted me too much. I will fight with you..."
Yun Luan has a photographic memory, and he feels that he should be able to master the knowledge of medicine more easily than the seventeen Taoist boys.
It turned out not to be the case.
Photographic memory is of some help in identifying medicinal herbs, but it is not very helpful. The forms of medicines are ever-changing, and some are very similar. Even the places of production are divided into southeast and northwest. If you want to truly understand the herbs, you must taste them with your mouth. .
All good doctors have tried all kinds of herbs.
The old immortal has tasted no less than 10,000 kinds of medicines.
Yun Luan had bad luck today. When he was trying the medicine, he took a bite of purple jasmine and thought it was gastrodia elata. Then, his lips began to tingle. After a while, even his skin felt dull.
Yun Luan didn't call out, because it would be useless to call out. Those Taoist brothers who were responsible for teaching them how to identify medicinal materials were inhumane, and Zi Moli was specially sneaked in by them.
The roots of purple jasmine are thick and very similar to gastrodia elata. There were once unscrupulous businessmen who made purple jasmine roots into fake gastrodia elata for profit. He did not recognize it today and it was his fault.
Besides, the toxicity of purple jasmine is not high. At most, it gives a feeling of numbness. It is much better than the man yesterday who accidentally drank the Banxia soup that was not boiled for enough time. That man started drinking ginger water to detoxify yesterday. Today, I was still drinking it. The juice of ginger water was very irritating. After it conflicted with the medicine of pinellia, that man’s face was covered with bumps overnight.
Yun Luan indifferently put the piece of purple jasmine back into the pile of herbs. He believed that if he wanted to select the full recipe of "Gastrodia Uncaria Drink" from this pile of herbs, someone would take a bite of purple jasmine... After all, this thing is too similar to Gastrodia elata.
Immediately, Yun Luan found auxiliary medicines such as Uncaria, Cassia, Mountain Gardenia, Scutellaria, Eucommia, Motherwort, Morus, Nocturnal Vine, Zhu Fushen, etc. Finally, he found a piece of gastrodia elata that was more like purple jasmine, and prepared to concoct these crude medicines. , and finally synthesize a complete prescription.
It's a long day's work...
In the evening, Yun Luan completed the mixing of the medicine, put it in a medicine jar, and began to dispense the finished medicine.
When the herbs began to have a strong smell, a strong male medicine boy with a bun and a height of only 1.4 meters took a deep sniff at Yunluan's medicine jar, and then used his medicine to test it. Too much, causing yellow pupils to look at Yun Luan and said: "Do you know what's wrong?"
Yun Luan reluctantly restrained her saliva from being restrained because her lips were numb and said: "Is it too perfect?"
The medicine boy chuckled and said: "The wrong firewood is used. "Gastrodia Uncaria Drink" cannot use pine firewood, it should use elm firewood..."
Yun Luan nodded, then picked up the medicine jar and smashed it on the head of the short, strong medicine boy. The hot medicine boy let out a shrill scream, and large burns were visible to the naked eye on his head, face, and arms. Bubble.
The eighteen Taoist boys present turned a blind eye to the medicine boy who fell to the ground and screamed miserably. A slightly older Taoist boy opened his mouth and drooled all over the floor. After the drool was almost gone, he said to Yun Luan. : "Junior brother Yun, why bother arguing with Japanese slaves? If you smashed a jar of medicine, all our results today will be invalidated and we will all be punished."
Yun Luan also drooled and said: "I'll just bear it as long as I can."
Another Taoist boy said in a sullen voice: "What kind of bullshit are you talking about? The rule that if one person makes a mistake and everyone is punished is set by the old gods, the Taoist thinks you did it on purpose."
Yun Luan sighed and said: "I have never understood that all Taoist brothers gathered together are a pot of good soup. If you throw people like me into this pot of good soup, the good soup will become stinky. You think, why did the old immortal come here?"
Hearing the screams from the medicine boy here, two more equally strong Japanese medicine boys came, and they quickly dragged away the medicine boy with blisters on his head and face.
The person who came to the pharmacy next was Lao He, the general judge of Tai Hospital.
"Don't let the old god see it."
Seeing the person being dragged out, Lao He gave a faint order.
"Uncle He, why did the hospital start using Japanese people?" Yun Luan said, covering her mouth with a handkerchief.
Lao He glanced at Yun Luan and said, "Did you taste purple jasmine when you tried medicine today?"
Yun Luan nodded and said: "It's so similar."
Lao He smiled and said, "There are not only Japanese in the Imperial Hospital, but also Koreans, Baekje people, Silla people, Arabs, Indians, and even some Romans. To the Tang Dynasty, they are like the difference between Mirabilis jalapa and Gastrodia elata."
Yun Luan frowned and said, "Are they all apprentices?"
Lao He smiled and said, "Tang people don't like to test drugs, they are just suitable for each other."
Hearing Lao He's heartless words, Yun Luan immediately said, "Uncle He, save your nephew."
Lao He shook his head and said, "You are the one the old immortal wants personally. Not to mention that I can't do anything, even His Majesty may not be able to save you from the water and fire."
Yun Luan's saliva was flowing and pulling strings.
"My mouth is so numb."
"Licorice boiled in water can detoxify all kinds of poisons. Also, don't deliberately eat poisonous substances. Eating too much is not good for your body."
"I really don't know the difference."
"Don't eat it by mistake next time. Even if you kill a hundred Japanese slaves, you can't change your fate of having to study medicine."
