"Fortunately, it only damaged the superficial cells of the skin. If it touches the nerves, there is no way to treat it... It's okay, it's okay."
Muchuan smiled happily.
On the other hand, Sophia and Xin'er looked at Muchuan in confusion.
Mingzhu: "Muchuan, what on earth are you talking about?
What muscle cells?
What nerve?
We don’t even understand.”
Xin'er: "Yes, Brother Muchuan always says words that we don't understand sometimes."
Muchuan slapped his head and realized that what he said was indeed complicated. The basics of modern medicine such as red blood cells, muscles, nerves, and blood circulation were taught in junior high school textbooks.
But this kind of thing was not taught in ancient times.
In order for the three girls to easily understand what he said, Muchuan simply summed it up in one sentence: "In short, Xin'er can be cured well!"
After saying that, the three women suddenly understood.
At the same time, the sun was shining brightly during the day, at the General's Mansion in Chang'an City.
Sitting on a rattan chair in the front hall of the mansion was an old man, wearing brown clothes and a black hat. His skin was as wrinkled as an old tree, and his eyes were bright.
If you look down upon this man because he is an old man, you will be blind. This old man is no ordinary old man, but one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, Li Jing, known as "Li Weigong" in the world!
Li Jing was a famous military strategist in the early Tang Dynasty who made great contributions to the founding of the country. The Li Jing in the later book "The List of Gods" was based on him.
At this time, Li Jing had reached his old age and had faded away from the political affairs of the court. Even so, he still had great influence in the court, and many civil servants and military generals wanted to give him a favor.
Li Jing has been somewhat troubled recently. As he faded away from the court, the Li family's majestic reputation began to slowly decline.
There is nothing that can be done about this. Li Jing is the most powerful and famous person in the Li family. Once he withdraws from the government, the family's influence will naturally decline. The key is that there is no successor!
Li Jing had several children, but they did not have Li Jing's bravery and strategy and were not reused by the court.
Now that Li Jing is still alive, with him here, the imperial court will definitely not treat the Li family lightly, but what will happen after Li Jing dies?
If he dies, are you afraid that the Li family will usher in turmoil?
Being able to become one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion and obtain meritorious service means that Li Jing is naturally not a good person. He wants to make plans for the future generations of the Li family.
Just when Li Jing was thinking about it, a voice called out: "Father, people have been called."
The speaker was none other than Li Derjian, the eldest son of Li Jing, a man with a generous build and a majestic appearance.
Along with Li Derjian came a burly man. This man was two meters tall, as tall as an ox, with dark skin, big eyes, and a big mouth. His name was Temujin Dali, and he was a member of the Li family.
"First Guard".
After Li Derjian saluted his father, he asked: "Father, do you know why you called Dali to come?"
"There is something I want to discuss with Dali."
Li Jing looked at Temujin and said something slowly.
Recently, the imperial court issued a notice to recruit capable cooks from all over the world. There are three conditions.
He has good cooking skills, is young, has excellent quality, and can read and write.
It is reasonable to say that such conditions are very difficult to find, but the Li family has such a person. Yes, it is Temujin Dali!
Temujin Dali was a northern nomad who was displaced due to natural disasters. Fortunately, he received help from the Li family.
Li Jing saw that Temujin was strong, tall and powerful, so he asked him to stay in the mansion and become a guard.
After getting along day and night, the Li family also discovered that Temujin's strength was not simple. In addition to his immense strength and good conduct, he actually also knew grammar and poetry. After questioning, they learned that he was the son of a northern nobleman. He was not just a natural disaster.
He left his hometown due to the persecution, mostly because his family members in his hometown were persecuted and died tragically, so he had no choice but to flee into the Tang Dynasty.
Heroes don't care about their origins, so Li Jing naturally didn't care about it, so he took him in and stayed there for five years.
At this time, the imperial court issued a notice to recruit cooks. If someone could provide a qualified chef to participate in the election, the imperial court would give a heavy reward based on the status of the provider.
Like the Li family, if they can provide qualified cooks, in addition to generous rewards, their providers can also receive preferential treatment such as promotions and promotions.
After Li Jing told him this, his son Li Dejian said in fear: "Could it be that my father wants Dali to participate?"
"Exactly."
"But didn't my father fade away from the court?
Why..."
"You fool, I'm doing this for you!"
Li Jing patted the chair handle heavily.
Li Derjian is Li Jing's eldest son. Although he is not a playboy, and he is not extremely talented, it is difficult for him to take over the great cause of the Li family or even surpass Li Jing's achievements.
As a father, you naturally hope that your children will become more and more successful, but it is unlikely in the future.
The main reason was that the territory of the Tang Dynasty was becoming more and more peaceful, and wars occasionally broke out, but they were local small battles. If the court wanted to send generals to go on an expedition, it would only send people with more prestige and ability, and naturally it would not send Li Derjian.
As a result, Li Derjian could not lead troops to fight, so he would not be able to make meritorious deeds and would not be promoted. In the long run, he was afraid that the Li family would decline.
Li Jing was old, so he took the opportunity to help his eldest son build meritorious deeds while he was still alive, and this cook was one of them.
After Li Derjian understood his father's intention, he suddenly realized: "It's actually like this. Father took the trouble, but..."
Li Derjian glanced at Temujin Dali with concern, he was not willing to hand over Temujin Dali just like that.
Temujin Dali worked conscientiously in the Li family, was loyal and honest, and won the hearts of the people. It can be said that he is a member of the Li family, and it is very difficult to let go of him.
Another point is that being a cook is a lowly job, which is especially looked down upon. Even if Temujin Dali is good at cooking, he cannot be allowed to do such a thing!
"Father, I think we need to ask Dali for his opinion."
Li Derjian was very worried about Temujin Dali's feelings. After all, the two had known each other for a long time. Although they had a master-servant relationship between superiors and subordinates, they were also brothers.
Li Jing understood and looked at Temujin Dali: "I wonder what you think?"
"My great efforts have won the kindness of the Li family, and every drop of kindness should be repaid by a spring. However...becoming a cook is not what a villain wants."
Temujin Dali was not a man without great ambitions. During these years in the Li family, he studied the art of war and practiced martial arts diligently in order to one day be able to make meritorious deeds on the battlefield.
Now if you work as a cook in other people's homes, wouldn't it mean that you are burying your talents?
It can be seen that Temujin Dali is also very conflicted. He wants to repay the favor of the Li family, but he does not want to bury himself in this way.
When Li Derjian saw this, he begged, "Father, I think this matter should be left alone... our Li family might as well make meritorious deeds on the battlefield openly! If time doesn't treat me, it will be God's will."
