Chapter 690 The ancient road is hot and cold Zhu Yuzhang
Late at night, the doctor Duan Chong called finally arrived. After checking Shen Yi's pulse, he said that Mr. Shen had contracted wind-heat. After prescribing medicine, he told Shen Yi not to suffer from heat stroke and to rest for a few days. It's getting better slowly.
Shen Yi nodded and thanked him. He really didn't have much strength and occasionally had a runny nose, so he asked Jiang Sheng to help him send the doctor out.
After sending the doctor away, Jiang Sheng ran out in the middle of the night to grab some medicine for Shen Yi. After the medicine was cooked, it was already early in the morning and it was almost dawn.
Jiang Sheng first found a small bowl and drank half of it. After waiting for a while to make sure that he was fine, he knocked on Shen Yi's door, woke up Shen Yi who was already lying down, and helped Shen Yi take the first dose of medicine. .
The reason why they need to test the medicine is because the people in Northern Qi want to kill Shen Yi all the time. According to the instructions of the internal guards, as long as Mr. Shen puts it into his stomach, someone must try it.
Usually Jiang Sheng comes to give Shen Yi a try.
Mr. Shen drowsily picked up the bowl of medicine. After taking a sip, he woke up from the pain. Even his sleepiness was gone. After glaring at Jiang Sheng, Shen Yi still held his nose and drank the bowl of medicine. He fell down, then returned to the bed and covered himself with the quilt: "Don't call me tomorrow."
"I won't see anyone until I wake up."
Jiang Sheng nodded quickly.
He knew that his young master was somewhat "angry when he wakes up" and his temper was not good only when he first woke up every day.
After drinking a bowl of medicine, the bitter taste in his mouth couldn't go away. Shen Yi tossed and turned on the bed until it was almost dawn, and he reluctantly fell asleep.
When I woke up again, it was already afternoon.
After waking up, his nose was already stuffy due to the heat and cold, and his mouth felt dry, so he shouted: "Jiang Sheng, pour some water!"
The door was quickly pushed open.
Jiang Sheng brought a cup of hot water and carefully placed it in front of Shen Yi's bed. Then he reached out and helped Shen Yi up from the bed: "Master, please drink some water."
Shen Yi sat up straight, picked up the glass of water and took a sip. He felt much better all over. He looked at Jiang Sheng and asked, "Is there nothing going on outside?"
"There's nothing else..."
Jiang Sheng lowered his head slightly, with a strange expression: "It's just an official who called himself Zhu. He came to visit your home early in the morning. After knowing that you were still sleeping, he waited for a while, then said goodbye and left. Before leaving, he told me Said..."
Shen Yi took a deep breath and asked, "What did he say?"
Jiang Sheng said honestly: "He said he would come back in the afternoon."
Shen Yi helplessly rubbed his eyebrows with his hands and said, "How old are you?"
"She looks like she's in her fifties. It's hard to tell how old she is..."
"He said…"
"He said he is from the governor's Yamen."
Shen Yi finally let out a breath and said in a low voice: "Why don't you wake me up?"
"Sir, you told me before you went to bed last night that no matter who comes to see you today, they cannot disturb your rest. I thought you were sick, so I couldn't disturb you anymore, so I didn't call you..."
"you…"
Shen Yi was a little frustrated.
However, these words were indeed spoken by him. There was really no reason to get angry with Jiang Sheng. After feeling sulky for a while, Shen Yi drank the glass of water and said helplessly: "That's it, you go out, I'll be here soon." Woke up."
Jiang Sheng nodded quickly and said: "Sir, the medicine has been prepared. You will have some food when you get up in a while, and I will wait for you to take the medicine."
Mr. Shen shook his head: "I really don't have much appetite. Just make a bowl of white porridge and some pickles and bring them to my room."
Jiang Sheng nodded quickly, turned around and went out to prepare.
After saying this, Shen Yi touched his forehead with his hand.
Still a little hot.
It's probably a cold, and I don't think I'll be cured within three to five days.
Originally, Shen Yi wanted to recuperate in Guangzhou before going to see Zhu Bancheng. Unexpectedly, he had only been in Guangzhou for half a day when he already came to his door.
Thinking of this, Shen Yi dug out a small wooden box next to his bed.
After opening the box, there were only a few things inside, one of which was a gold medal sent to him by the emperor, and the other was a letter.
Shen Yi took out the letter and took a look at it in his hand.
There were a few simple words written on the envelope.
Yuzhang personally initiated it.
Yuzhang should be Zhu Gui's character.
The abbreviation and name complement each other. Gui originally means beautiful jade, so it is reasonable to choose this abbreviation.
However, this first name, coupled with Zhu Futai's surname, is only one character different from the name of a ruthless person.
Shen Yi turned the letter over and over for a while, and was hesitating whether to open it and take a look. There was a knock on his door, and Jiang Sheng lowered his head outside and said, "Sir, that Mr. Zhu is here again this morning. ."
Shen Yi came back to his senses, put the letter into his sleeve, then looked at the door and asked, "How many people are here?"
Jiang Sheng lowered his head and said, "Only Mr. Zhu himself."
"Um…"
Shen Yi rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Then I won't be in a hurry to eat. I'll go out to see him first."
After saying this, Shen Yi put on a coat, briefly took care of his hair, washed his face, and got ready to go out.
Before leaving the house, he looked back at the wooden box on his bed. After a moment of hesitation, he took out the gold medal from the wooden box and stuffed it into his arms.
Although it was just a dead object, with it in his pocket, Mr. Shen felt inexplicably at ease, then he firmly opened the door and walked out.
A burst of hot air hit my face.
And it's that kind of hot and humid.
It's midsummer right now, and as soon as I go out, I feel sticky and uncomfortable.
Mr. Shen frowned subconsciously, then glanced at Jiang Sheng and said, "Lead the way."
Shen Yi can't be said to be unfamiliar with this house, it can only be said that he knows nothing about it.
Fortunately, Jiang Sheng knew the way. He walked in front and led Shen Yi. It didn't take long before he arrived at the main hall of the house. Before Shen Yi walked in, he saw a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance sitting in the main hall from a distance. people.
This man did not wear official uniforms, he only looked like a scholar. At first glance, he looked very young. He seemed to be only about forty years old. However, he still had a beard on his head, which was already a little gray, so Jiang Shengcai I would say it's hard to tell his age.
Mr. Shen dragged the sick body in, raised his hands to the middle-aged man from a distance and said, "Jiangdu Shen Yi, I have met Mr."
"May I ask who it is sir?"
The middle-aged man stood up. He first looked at Shen Yi up and down, then nodded slightly, returned the salute to Shen Yi, and said with a smile.
"Yiyang Zhugui."
The Mandarin he spoke was not very standard, but it was still easy to understand.
Shen Yi once again handed over his hand and said with emotion: "It turns out that it is really Zhong Cheng. After Xiaguan woke up just now, I heard the people below talking about it. I didn't believe it at first. I never thought that it was really Zhong Cheng who came in person."
"The lower officials are frightened."
Zhu Gui stepped forward, pulled Shen Yi's sleeves, helped him sit down, and said with a smile: "Scholar Shen is too polite. You are an imperial envoy of the imperial court. How can you claim to be a lower official in front of Zhu?"
"If we really talk about it strictly, I should call myself a lower official in front of the imperial envoy."
"Coastal errands do not involve local government offices."
Mr. Shen smiled and replied: "Although I am an imperial envoy, my duties do not involve local yamen. Zhongcheng treats me as an ordinary fifth-rank official."
"Scholar Shen is joking."
After helping Shen Yi sit down, Zhu Gui smiled and said: "I have already heard about Academician Shen's journey south. In just two and a half years, we have almost wiped out the Japanese pirates along the coast. It is really very satisfying."
"Xueshi Shen is presiding over the affairs of the five coastal cities' shipping departments, and I have heard about it. For this reason, I also sent people to Wenzhou Prefecture to take a look at the situation of the Wenzhou City Shipping Department."
Having said this, Zhu Futai said in a deep voice.
"This is a great thing that benefits the country and the people. If Master Shen needs Zhu's help if you need anything, just ask!
Zhu Futai was very enthusiastic and patted his chest and said.
"I, the governor of Guangdong, have no shirk in my duty!"
