Chapter 539: What are you going to do to provoke him?
"Have you heard that Yan Guan was carried out of the palace wailing like a bereaved dog? It seems to be related to Judge Gongsun!"
"Judge Gongsun is a good official. He upholds justice and performs his duties with all his heart. Why should a good official quarrel with a good official?"
"I heard that Yan Guan failed to impeach Judge Gongsun and was going to hit the wall. Judge Gongsun had a lot of people, so he came to the rescue. The Queen Mother was furious and was ready to demote him!"
"It's so ugly to force someone to die!"
"The "Book of Filial Piety" says, 'The emperor has seven remonstrators. Even if they are immoral, they will not lose the world.' The official family only needs seven competent remonstrators, but now the number of remonstrators has already exceeded
Come on, you are still not qualified..."
"The Queen Mother is wise and should be demoted. These mediocre and boastful officials are the most hateful and should all be demoted!"
"I think you want to be an official. I saw you preparing for the imperial examination yesterday!"
"You... how can you accuse someone of being innocent out of thin air? How can you say you want to be an official when you are admitted to the Jinshi Examination and honor your ancestors?"
…
Li Yan walked on the street, listening to the discussions in his ears, with a smile on his lips.
News about the palace leaked out so quickly. What happened just a short time ago has already spread throughout the streets. What's rare is that the vast majority of people support Gongsun Zhao, and what's even more rare is that no market was opened because of this incident.
Lin San behind him also said: "Erlang, everyone is saying good things about Judge Gongsun, then Ren Boyu's reputation will be ruined!"
Li Yan nodded and said: "The public is sometimes ignorant, and people who don't know the truth can easily be misled, but the public's eyes are sharp. Judge Gongsun worked diligently in Kaifeng Mansion for eight years, and finally won the people.
heart of."
"In addition, the matter was handled properly and Ren Boyu was not allowed to commit suicide to express his ambition. Otherwise, public opinion would have been different and the Queen Mother would not have driven Ren Boyu out. Now Ren Zhengyan is still seeking death and survival.
What he loses is his face."
Lin Sandao: "That's great!"
Li Yan shook his head slightly: "Okay, but it's not good, because this is just the beginning. The worse Ren Boyu falls, the more powerful Tai Jian's counterattack will be. If he offends one, he will offend a group of people. Yanguan will criticize, Shilin
Contempt, endless fighting followed..."
Lin San's expression changed and he said fearfully: "Guan Yan is really not easy to mess with!"
Li Yan thought that if she was easy to mess with, the Empress Dowager Xiang in history would not be so distressed by these guys that she would eventually step down.
If he hadn't made some small changes, according to historical development, he would have removed the curtain to the Queen Mother this month and not returned power. The next month, the officials would have begun to criticize the Xiang brothers for their many wrongdoings, but they were suppressed by the Queen Mother.
And Zhao Ji did one thing among them. Not only did he not oppose the Queen Mother, but he also defended the Queen Mother in everything, especially when his relatives were disrupting the law.
Dun's resignation finally ignited Yan Guan's fighting spirit.
The more the officials protected the prime minister and relatives, and because of their pure filial piety, they helped the Queen Mother, the more they, who were not afraid of power, had to charge forward. Shilin built momentum and attacked in groups. In addition, the Xiang brothers were inherently weak.
, even more so.
Seeing that the Xiang family was about to be completely destroyed, Empress Dowager Xiang had no choice but to return the power. She fell ill that month and persisted for less than two months before being sent to the imperial mausoleum. Nineteen-year-old Zhao Ji officially began his ruling career.
Yanguan is not easy to mess with, but sometimes it is easy to use. As long as the context is grasped, it is an excellent political tool. Zhao Ji is undoubtedly a master, and he will use it many times later.
Lin San naturally did not know the insidiousness of these political struggles: "But Judge Gongsun wants to investigate the murder of the princess. If they do this, when will the murderer be arrested and brought to justice?"
Li Yan expressed concern about this issue: "Yes, when will the murderer be caught?"
In fact, Lin San didn't care too much. After all, the person who died was an evil prince, not a common person. Many people on the streets of Bianjing were secretly applauding. He mentioned this, but he was very proud of his son's achievements and honors:
"Now I finally understand why Erlang doesn't want to be an official. It's better to be trapped in such a fight for a black silver belt than to be as comfortable and unrestrained as you are now, and everyone still respects you!"
Li Yan couldn't help but laugh: "That's right, I'm getting more and more understanding now."
As the master and servant talked, they had already arrived at Sui'an Medical Center.
Seeing the long queue in front of the door, Lin San felt a little strange: "Is Dr. An even later than us today?"
Li Yan's face darkened slightly. An Daoquan loved practicing medicine. He was here every day and only occasionally went out for consultation. What happened today?
But when he entered the medical office and glanced around, he felt relieved and called the apprentice: "When was Dr. An asked to leave?"
The apprentice hurriedly said: "Reporting to Dr. Lin, an hour ago, when the medical clinic just opened, a few people who looked like stewards took Dr. An away."
Li Yan said "please leave", but the apprentice said "take away". There is naturally a difference between them. He frowned slightly: "Invite a doctor to come to the door. Is the attitude of those people still very bad?"
The apprentice thought back and said with some horror: "It's not that he was bad, it was just that he was tough to say the truth, which forced Dr. An to pack the medicine box in a hurry and left with them."
Li Yan asked: "Where did you go?"
The apprentices looked at each other in confusion: "I don't know, they just whispered a few words to Dr. An and ignored me at all..."
Li Yan looked at the patients waiting in line outside and said to Lin Sand: "Go and invite Manager Zhang from the Shangqiu Guild, and let the patients in."
The patient entered, and Li Yan began to consult and administer acupuncture very quickly.
After his spiritual wisdom improved, he absorbed the power of the moonlight last night, transformed it into mana, and entrenched himself in Niwan Palace.
Regarding Taoist spells, Li Yan did not have any systematic study of Taoism and spells. He was purely a wild man. However, with the foundation of a martial arts master and the Zhenwu Holy Body, this kind of wild mantra that was not aggressive also allowed him to figure out some practical methods.
method.
For example, at this moment, there is a slight heat between the eyebrows, and the thinking becomes more and more agile. The whole brain is like a high-speed machine. Some patients have already understood the symptoms in their minds before they sit down, and they can use acupuncture at will to cure the disease.
.
It's a pity that such a "mental state" cannot be maintained all the time, otherwise it will cause damage to the body. Li Yan is not impatient, tries patiently, and constantly adjusts.
Finally, the effect of "Shensi" was reduced, and at the same time it was in an operating state that caused minimal harm to the body and consumed very little mana. He was able to treat patients at a speed that even the patients could not understand.
In just half an hour, all the patients who had been consulted were settled, but the people who were taking medicine were extremely busy.
Li Yan let out a sigh of relief, closed his eyelids slightly, and was still immersed in this wonderful state, until an arrogant voice came from the front: "Hearing is better than seeing. Doctor Lin's medical skills are really superb. Please follow me."
Let’s take a trip!”
He did not react because he sensed the sound of two familiar footsteps. It was Lin San arriving with Zhang Yu.
This area is the territory of the Shangqiu Guild. Under the influence of Sui'an Medical Center, the surrounding restaurants and shops have returned to prosperity. How could Zhang Yu let people cause trouble? He walked over and said in a deep voice: "Who are you?"
The arrogant voice said: "How presumptuous! Look clearly at my official robe. My county king has invited Dr. Lin, do you dare to stop me?"
Zhang Yu's face changed slightly: "Which prince?"
A proud voice said: "Prince Yongjia!"
Li Yan then opened his eyes, and what he saw was a servant wearing a green robe, a silver belt, and a confident tone in his voice.
He is both a servant and an official.
It is not that officials become slaves, but that slaves become officials.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, the seven-rank official in front of the prime minister was not an exaggerated description, but a realistic description. The servants who ran around in the homes of high-ranking officials could really be recommended for official status. This was unimaginable in the Tang Dynasty, and they were also redundant officials.
One of the reasons.
Imagine that there are frequent imperial examinations, a large number of Jinshi, high-ranking officials with extensive responsibilities, and even domestic slaves can become officials. How can officials not be redundant?
Comparing the two, if Yongyang County Prince Xiang Zonghui is openly arrogant, with many wealthy slaves, concubines, and five mansions in Bianjing, Yongjia County Prince Xiang Zongliang is low-key arrogance.
You don't hear anything bad about him on weekdays, but from the fact that he sent for a doctor and asked an official's servant to come forward, you can tell that he and his brother are the same kind of people at heart.
Zhang Yu had quickly stepped aside. The Shangqiu Guild was extremely capable in Bianjing, but they did not dare to provoke the Queen Mother's brother. Li Yan looked at the visitor and asked, "Did you also invite Dr. An?"
The slave officer was a little dissatisfied with his attitude, but after watching the miraculous medical skills before, he still replied: "Yes, the doctor in the capital has gone. Dozens of people have gathered in the house, and the imperial doctor has also been there, but
The king of my county was so heartbroken because of the murder of his young brother that he fell ill on the bed and couldn't get better even with the help of medicine. If Dr. Lin can rejuvenate with his magic, his reputation in the capital will not be limited to this small place!"
The slave officer thought that the inducement was good, but a coldness flashed in Li Yan's eyes.
During the Tang Dynasty, after he injured Jin Zhizhao, he also gathered doctors from Luoyang in order to prevent the thief from getting a chance to heal his injuries. However, at that time, he asked Luoyang patients to go to the medical center for treatment. It was better for the county prince.
When you get sick, you call in doctors from all over the country, and you don't care about the lives of the people in Bianjing who want to see a doctor?
The slave officer was extremely impatient. Seeing that he didn't respond, his tone immediately became tough: "Doctor Lin, why don't you come with us quickly? If the prince's illness is delayed, I'm afraid you won't be able to afford it. This year, An Medical Center is even more
There’s no need to drive any further!”
Zhang Yu showed a worried look. He knew very well that this man was not only skilled in medicine, but also extremely powerful in martial arts. Young people were inevitably very angry. If they turned against each other, the medical clinic would not be able to continue...
Fortunately, to his relief, the conflict did not occur. The young man stood up calmly: "Let's go to the Prince's Mansion."
