Chapter 747 Fire in the Gongyuan

Next, the imperial doctor briefly described the anecdote about how Qi Xiao and the young prince shelled the moat together.

He did not praise or criticize, and his expression was very neutral.

The imperial doctor said that from the perspective of medical etiology, His Majesty was frightened by Qi Xiao's artillery fire, which is why he fell into a state of collapse.

Tell me, can this matter have nothing to do with your Qi family?

In fact, the emperor was not the only one who was frightened.

Take Admiral Jiu Men, for example. Every time he goes out to attend court, he suffers from constipation caused by mental stress. He has taken hundreds of laxatives just to moisten his intestines.

Qi Yu rolled his eyes and hummed: He can't poop because the earth's gravity is not strong enough. What does this have to do with Qi Xiao's cannon shooting?

It’s simply a bloody mouthful!

The imperial doctor was shocked when he heard this, and thought to himself: I see Sir Qi's attitude, he just wants to ignore it!

"Master Qi, when I was in the capital, I often visited your aunt for medical treatment. If you don't sell the favor of your colleagues, then I will..."

"Well……"

This trick really works.

Qi Dalang was forced to make concessions in an instant.

"Although the original medicinal materials of maca have been exhausted, there are still some finished pills. I will have people find them and deliver them to you."

"If so, thank you very much, Mr. Qi!"

Qi Yu bowed his hand generously, indicating that there was no need to thank him.

The imperial doctor was a little puzzled. Why did Mr. Qi insist on not sending the original medicinal materials, but insisted on giving some pills with unknown efficacy?

In fact, there is a mystery hidden in it.

Qi Yu's idea is not complicated. He just wants to arrange some commonly used mild medicines instead of serving the king with tiger and wolf medicines. Otherwise, he may get into trouble.

Getting into trouble?

how do I say this?

Have you not heard about the incident between Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty and Zhao Hede?

With such a clear lesson learned from the past, which minister dares to really use the powerful tonic medicine?

Once something goes wrong, it would be easy to destroy all nine of your clans.

Taking advantage of the harmonious atmosphere, Qi Yu asked about the current situation of his wife and children.

Especially his son Qi Xiao, he caused such a trouble, how will it end later?

The imperial doctor did not hide anything and told everything he knew. However, he did not fully understand the underlying reasons and could only make superficial statements.

At the end, he emphasized: "Everything is well with your noble master in the capital. When I came, he was still actively participating in the discussions of all parties! Just imagine, if there is any external binding force, how can his actions be affected?

So convenient?”

As a young boy, he actually learned to talk to others.

As for what Tao was being discussed, Qi Yu was not interested in learning more. What he cared about and paid attention to was his son's freedom of movement and that he had not suffered any so-called unfair treatment.

That's good!

Feeling happy, Qi Yu directly gave out a big red envelope of 3,000 Asian dollars as a thank you for the information fee.

The imperial doctor looked at the dozen colorful "Jiaozi" coins and looked confused: How much is this thing worth?

No matter what, he still thanked him and accepted it calmly.

The moved doctor also told him another piece of uncertain good news, saying that His Majesty intends to terminate Lord Yin Jun's Ding You and reinstate him to his post.

What?

Is Baimian chief going to Beijing?

This is a great thing!

Since Lu Boxuan's Northern Expedition and Yin Jun and Ding You, no one in the court has spoken for him anymore. Now that he came to Beijing under the imperial edict, he just filled this shortcoming.

With him sitting in the court, Yin Tao and Qi Xiao's situation would be much safer.

After bidding farewell to the imperial doctor, Qi Yu immediately found his niece Sun Qiaoyun and told her to only use mild ingredients when formulating the prescription, without any trace of tiger or wolf medicinal herbs. As for the so-called maca, let it only exist in theory.

Moreover, this thing is not that magical. It feels similar to the 'Ant Power God' in the previous life, which was artificially hyped.

Even so, Qi Yu still chose to act cautiously, not seeking failure, but seeking no mistakes.

Anyway, after returning to the palace, others will try the medicine. If even a little bit doesn't work, His Majesty may not even take it.

For psychological comfort, Qi Dalang also went to the Mazu Temple and the City God Temple to pray.

When worshiping Mazu, he said: "Please God bless my daughter's sea voyage to be smooth and successful."

When paying homage to Su Shi, he prayed: "Old Officer Su, please keep the medicines I paid tribute safe and sound, and don't cause any discord."

After saying this, he generously burned a large pile of gold and silver paper. Look, the fire was burning brightly, which seemed like a good sign.

As everyone knows, his phrase "It's burning hot" actually turned out to be the opposite of a crow's mouth.

At this moment, the Gongyuan in the capital, which was in the midst of spring, suddenly caught fire.

Let's listen carefully.

According to the system, the examinations are usually scheduled in February after the new year. However, this time, due to the unbearable late spring cold, Emperor Sheng, after careful consideration, specifically postponed the opening date and rescheduled it to be held in March.

Firstly, it can save the candidates from suffering, and secondly, it can also give them more time to review.

In short, it is the emperor’s grace.

As a result, I never expected that this favor would be hotly discussed for a month, and then it would be replaced by a series of curses.

I don’t know which link caused the problem. On the first afternoon of the first trial, a raging fire broke out.

You must know that the main gate of Gongyuan and the small doors of each 'number' are all locked with iron chains. How can the candidates escape in a short period of time?

Although Yu, the president of the examination room, had prepared a water dragon in advance, the fire was too strong and in the end it was only a drop in the bucket.

Fortunately among the misfortunes, the nine-men admiral who assisted in the defense responded promptly. He led his troops to break down the door and rescued more than half of the Kaozi. Even so, hundreds of people perished in the sea of ​​​​fire.

A fire broke out in the Gongyuan, but this was a great humiliation in the imperial examination, and it would definitely be recorded in the annals of history by historians, and then become a joke for the ages.

The emperor was furious when he found out!

As the saying goes, when the emperor is angry, millions of people will be killed.

Although these words were a bit exaggerated, they were definitely not fabricated. Under the Meridian Gate, countless beheaded heads fell on the ground.

This killing made the "second cobblers" who were sewing the corpse very busy.

As they sewed, they said with emotion: "Nine times out of ten, these people were innocent and died unjustly! If you want to blame, it's because the tribute courtyard was not built properly. If it had more mud and less wood,

If so, maybe it won’t burn.”

The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional.

The two Confucian scholars who were watching the excitement sighed at the same time after hearing this.

One of them said: "If the Nagongyuan was like our cement buildings in Qiongzhou, there would be no such fear of fire."

The second person echoed: "What Brother Tao said is true."
