"Your Majesty, Xia Wu is here to see you." Gai Nie said with a stern face and an emotionless voice.
Listening to Gai Nie's voice, Ying Zheng felt a little uncomfortable at first, as if he owed Gai Nie money.
Fortunately, after a few days, Ying Zheng got used to hearing this, so he nodded and said, "Call him in."
"only."
Gai Nie came out of the palace and led Xia Wuji into the palace.
"Greetings to Your Majesty."
"No need to be polite."
Ying Zheng put away the brush and bamboo slips and ordered the eunuch to bring a soft cushion to Xia Wuji. The eunuch did as he was told.
Ying Zheng stretched out his hand and invited Xia Wuqi to sit on the cushions. He said curiously: "Today is not the day for me to recuperate my body. How come the imperial doctor's order came here suddenly? Is there anything important?"
Xia Wuqie thanked Ying Zheng first, then sat on the soft cushion with the medicine box on his back and looked around.
Ying Zheng was even more surprised.
If other ministers did this, Ying Zheng wouldn't feel it at all. Maybe he wanted to make some secrets, make a small report or something.
But Xia Wuqi is a doctor. Is there anything that a doctor can say without rejecting others?
"Everyone go down, Genie stays."
In the past, when Zhao Gao was making the seal order, Ying Zheng would only say the three words "all go down" and would not deliberately add the last four words - Zhao Gao would automatically stay.
As for Gai Nie, Ying Zheng is not doubtful, he is extremely convinced - if you add four less words, Gai Nie will definitely follow him out.
"only."
"only."
"..."
After everyone responded, soon only Ying Zheng, Xia Wuji and Gai Nie were left in the Zhangtai Palace.
Ying Zheng said: "Is this the imperial doctor's order that can be said?"
Xia Wuji looked at Gai Nie.
When I was in the palace, I often saw Mr. Gai and Mr. Chang'an talking together. They must have known each other for a long time...
"Your Majesty, could you ask Mr. Gai to stay outside the door? I will use my unique acupuncture method to condition your Majesty's body. Mr. Gai is skilled in swordsmanship and has a photographic memory. I am afraid that Mr. Gai will practice the acupuncture method passed down from my family."
A peerless swordsman, are you afraid that he will secretly learn your acupuncture skills?
Ying Zheng said: "Gai Nie is a peerless swordsman and would not behave like this."
Xia Wuji insisted: "Your Majesty will let me use my petty heart to penetrate the heart of a gentleman. This acupuncture method is a family-inherited acupuncture method. It must not be leaked. I dare not take risks."
Xia Wuji insisted twice in a row, and Ying Zheng knew that this was not a problem with the acupuncture technique, but a problem with the people.
Ying Zheng tapped the table with his index finger twice.
Gai Nie and Xia Wuqi had never interacted with each other, and Xia Wuqing did not want Gai Nie to be present. It was probably not for personal reasons.
Genie has always been aloof and self-admired, and has few people he knows well.
If Gai Nie were not present, this feeling... wouldn't it be said that it was a dragon again, right?
Forget it, if you want to know what Xia Wuqie is thinking, you just need to let Gai Nie go out first.
Ying Zheng looked at Gai Nie and gave Gai Nie a look.
Gai Nie looked at Ying Zheng and understood Ying Zheng's eyes, but Gai Nie did not move.
Ying Zheng had no choice but to think that Gai Nie didn't understand what he meant, so he said: "Gai Nie, please go out first and wait outside the door."
Gai Nie did not respond. Instead, he got closer to Ying Zheng, holding the sword in his hand, and said coldly: "If the imperial doctor orders an attack on Your Majesty, Nie is outside the Zhangtai Palace gate, and there is no absolute certainty that he can stop him."
Xia Wuji:......
I still doubt you, why don't you give me a thumbs up first?
"Mr. Gai, Wu Qi is a doctor. Have you ever heard of doctors killing people?" Xia Wu Qi's voice sounded very unhappy.
Gai Nie had no expression on his face and nodded coldly.
"Chang'an Jun once told Nie that there is a Peach Blossom Island in the endless sea, and there is a doctor with superb medical skills on it, who is known as Huang Yaoshi in Jianghu. He is both good and evil. He kills and saves people only based on his own likes and dislikes."
Xia Wuqi said angrily: "Doctors don't kill people. As long as they kill people, they are not considered doctors!"
Gai Nie remained indifferent and remained on high alert towards Xia Wuji.
Whether you are a doctor or not is none of my business, I just know that you are in danger.
"I am a descendant of a medical family, how can I kill people? You are questioning my identity as a doctor!"
"Nie doesn't care whether the Imperial Physician Ling is a doctor or not. Nie only knows that there is no separation between medicine and martial arts. The more skilled the Imperial Physician Ling is, the more people he can save. The more skilled the Imperial Physician Ling is, and the easier it is to kill people."
Xia Wuji:......
He wanted Ganie to see the martial arts of a doctor.
When the two were tit-for-tat, they didn't notice that Ying Zheng looked very strange when Gai Nie said seriously about Huang Laoxie of Peach Blossom Island.
If I remember correctly, that Shuzi also told me about Peach Blossom Island, Huang Laoxie's, but wasn't that made up by that Shuzi?
"Gai Nie, you go out first." Ying Zheng said in a deep voice, seriously: "The imperial doctor will not harm me. If he wanted to harm me, he would have succeeded long ago."
Ying Zheng thought that he was so serious this time that he could make Gai Nie say "Wei" and walk out of Zhangtai Palace.
He didn't expect that Genie Leng had a hard face, shook his head, and refused again.
"Your Majesty trusts him, but I don't trust him. If you just want Nie to be unable to observe his actions, Nie will turn his back."
Gai Nie turned around, facing away from Ying Zheng and Xia Wuqi and said, "That's good."
It was really the first time that Ying Zheng met a guard with such personal ideas as Gai Nie. For a moment, he didn't know whether to be angry with Gai Nie for disrespecting the king's order or to appreciate Gai Nie's sense of precaution.
"Since Mr. Gai doesn't want to go out, then just stay here." Xia Wuji's voice also became colder and he said, "It's better not to have nowhere to live when we introduce you."
Xia Wuji was not Li Si, he was not involved in official circles, and he was not afraid of offending the people close to the First Emperor.
He didn't want Gai Nie to hear what he was going to say about Ying Chengyu, but he was afraid that Gai Nie would tip him off, and he was definitely not afraid of being resented by Gai Nie.
With me by your Majesty's side, even if the Nie soldiers go on a dangerous journey and commit treasonous acts, it will be difficult for them to succeed. So what if I tell you?
Xia Wuji calmed down his thoughts and slowly spoke to Ying Zheng: "A few days ago, the Queen Mother of Han asked me to see a doctor for Lord Chang'an, saying that Lord Chang'an sneezed for some reason one day. When I was diagnosing Lord Chang'an's pulse, I discovered something strange.
Place."
Something strange?
Ganie turned around.
Is it really a dragon?
Ying Zheng's mentality relaxed a lot.
Xia Wuji observed Gai Nie with the corner of his eye, and said in a low voice and steadily: "Chang'an Lord has been hanging around the tower all year round, but his vitality not only has not lost at all, but is very full, and..."
Xia Wuji gritted his teeth and said, "He has the body of a boy."
The body of a child is commonly known as a virgin.
The corners of Gai Nie's mouth twitched slightly, and his paralyzed face seemed a little paralyzed.
The young master has been wandering around the terrace all year round and slept with countless beauties. If you say that the young master is a boy, it is better to say that the young master wants to rebel.
Ying Zheng's face is not paralyzed, so Ying Zheng's reaction is stronger than that of Gai Nie.
He couldn't hold it back and laughed out loud, saying: "Isn't the imperial doctor's order a joke to me?"
Saying that Shu Zi is a boy is the funniest thing I have heard in recent years.
Xia Wuqe also knew how ridiculous his diagnosis was. He raised three fingers to the sky and said: "I swear as a descendant of the medical family, I did not make a mistake. The steward of the building attempted suicide last night. I went today uninvited because I wanted to know more about Chang'an."
Are you in the body of a child?"
Ying Zheng smiled and asked, "What was the result?"
Xia Wuqie said with a somewhat solemn expression: "Judging from the pulse, the steward of the tower should be more skilled in the work of men and women. And judging from the oral accounts of the ladies of the tower, the person in charge of the steward Yun Yu is indeed Lord Chang'an. Lord Chang'an is not only
He is not a boy, but should have grown up in this matter. This is not consistent with my diagnosis of Lord Chang'an. But I am absolutely sure that judging from Lord Chang'an's pulse, Lord Chang'an is indeed a boy."
"This is consistent with my understanding of that Shuzi." Ying Zheng said with a smile: "Perhaps Chenglong is different from ordinary people, and its pulse condition is different from ordinary people. It is reasonable that the imperial doctor can't find out."
Xia Wuqi had thought of Ying Zheng's explanation early in the morning, that there were indeed people in the world with different pulses than ordinary people.
Even if Bian Que, the founder of medicine, was still alive, he would not dare to say that he could see all the pulse conditions in the world.
But Xia Wuqi knew this clearly, but he still came to see the First Emperor today.
The reason is very simple. He is convinced that Ying Chengyu is not one of those unique people.
Xia Wuqi had checked too many pulses in his life. Three years ago, he checked a person whose pulse was not in the wrist under the palm, but in the wrist under the back of the hand.
Those whose pulse conditions are obviously different as soon as they are taken are the ones that doctors call strange people, not those whose pulse conditions are inconsistent with public perception.
No matter what the public's perception of Ying Chengyu is, Xia Wuji's pulse can be clearly grasped in Xia Wuji's hands. He is a child, and his pulse will not lie.
So Xia Wuji shook his head, disagreed with Ying Zheng's view, and said seriously: "Your Majesty, pulse conditions cannot lie. There is only one possibility for this kind of situation."
