In the Duke Fu's mansion, Doctor Yue was invited to Anping Garden.
Xu Jian's healing process can be considered a step-by-step process. Although this "progress" is slow, it is still crawling at a snail's pace, and it is always moving forward.
Judging from Dr. Yue's experience, it can be stabilized now and the future is promising.
Of course, it would have been better if the Duke, who has great ideas, could listen to more advice.
It makes sense to have to ride a horse to get married, but to go to court before your injury has healed is too much trouble.
In particular, on one occasion, Fu Guogong's legs were clearly overstretched.
Another person might not be able to tell the clues, but Dr. Yue knew Xu Jian's condition very well. He massaged him every day to soothe him, and he would know the condition as soon as he touched his palm.
The injured man did not hide anything from anyone. When Doctor Yue asked him about it, he immediately answered, saying that he had climbed over the courtyard wall and gave a rough description of the height. Doctor Yue went up in one breath and almost didn't come down.
There are reasons for assisting the Duke of the State. There are many twists and turns about serving the public and private interests. As a doctor, he can't understand unless he talks and listens. Anyway, he doesn't really want to know. The more he knows, the more unlucky he will be. But he is really a
Doctor, the injured person hurts his leg so much that he really has a headache.
So, today, when Doctor Yue entered Anping Garden and saw the auxiliary Duke and the princess, he probably guessed that the injured person was disobedient.
When it comes to persuasion, the old doctor is too lazy to talk over and over again.
Seeing Xu Jian lying on the couch, he stepped forward and pressed his right leg.
Compared to the morning treatment, the muscles were a little tighter.
Doctor Yue said directly: "It's not bad, it's better than climbing over the wall last time."
When I climbed over the wall, I lifted it with enough force, which definitely had a greater impact on my legs. Compared with climbing over the wall, today's few steps were naturally "easier".
If it weren't for the lack of effort, Lin Yunyan would not have agreed to Xu Jian to do such a scene.
I knew the seriousness in my heart, but only after listening to the doctor's judgment did I really feel relieved.
Doctor Yue pressed Xu Jian's legs for a while.
Use more strength at first, but then you don't need to use all your strength anymore.
"The princess is coming?" Doctor Yue asked.
This compression is mainly for soothing. The strength is not critical, but the longer it is, the more important.
Also a few days ago, Dr. Yue discovered that the princess's compression techniques were very good and she didn't look like a novice at all.
He asked curiously at that time, and the princess replied, "Give it to the Empress Dowager, grandma pressed too many buttons."
Doctor Yue had no doubts at all, and even murmured: You are worthy of being favored by the Empress Dowager. The princess has also worked hard to serve the empress. Isn't this the relationship between elders and juniors, there are back and forth, and they give to each other.
.
Doctor Yue knew that Lin Yunyan was fully capable of relieving the tightness in Xu Jian's legs, so he asked her.
It's not that Dr. Yue wants to be lazy, but that when a young couple is newly married and their relationship is harmonious, they need more contact with each other. Why should he, an old doctor, be a candle?
Living in the Duke Fu's mansion and treating the Duke, he still needs to have some eyesight.
When Lin Yunyan heard his question, she naturally agreed, and at the same time, she felt more relieved.
She was able to relax, which shows that the impact of those few steps was indeed not big.
If Xu Jian can continue to get better like this...
Doctor Yue left first.
Lin Yunyan moved a round stool to the couch, soaked her hands with hot water, waited until both hands were warm before sitting down, and poured some medicated oil to massage Xu Jian's legs.
My fair and clean hands were stained with the color of medicated oil and stained quite a bit.
Lin Yunyan didn't pay attention and rubbed her face with her fingers, leaving some on her cheeks.
Xu Jian took a clean handkerchief and wiped it gently for her: "Do you feel any pain from the fall?"
Lin Yunyan raised her eyes and glanced at him.
The soiled snow coats were untied when they got back to the carriage. They left well prepared. There were clean ones in the carriage, and they also had hotpots to keep them warm. There was no chill at all when they put them on.
And since it was done on purpose, it really didn't hurt at all.
"My clothes are thick, so I don't feel any pain," Lin Yunyan said. "Compared to those few steps you took, they are nothing at all."
Xu Jian said: "You have a clear view of Zhangping Garden, and you are sincere. There is no need to fall so low."
"If it falls, it will fall." Lin Yunyan said softly.
Of course she knew the situation in Changping Garden.
Being able to plot against Liu Xun and Zheng Liu that day was largely due to geographical advantages.
Only by understanding the layout of Zhangping Garden can she control, guide and accomplish things.
Therefore, Lin Yunyan also knew what Xu Jian was talking about.
Across a pool of water, I could see but not completely. No matter how hard Lin Yunyan fell, she couldn't even say "Ouch!". On the other hand, she just pretended to squat down and shouted, there was no need to actually push herself to the ground.
fall.
"My fall was not painful or itchy, but I just soiled my clothes," Lin Yunyan said without stopping, "Just think about it, the wall was overturned and the road was gone."
Xu Jian laughed.
He was wrong in the first place and couldn't explain it.
He turned the topic back to business: "Li Shao is impulsive and will definitely start planning after getting the news."
Lin Yunyan said: "I'm more curious about how he will attack, or what step he wants to take."
Li Shao has always been a fool, but now he still has a little control.
Firstly, the Holy Sage is in good health and still in charge of the court, and Li Shao has not yet been able to cover the sky with one hand; secondly, in Xu Jian's words, Li Shao is not that crazy now, and he will not fight to the death.
In other words, Li Shao would do something stupid that would hurt the enemy a thousand and damage himself eight hundred because he was careless about the past and the future, but he would never set up a trap for this in his original intention.
If such a result is achieved, Xu Jian will be unlucky and Li Shao will not be able to get anything good.
Among her and Xu Jian's enemies, Li Shao was an important one, but they were not the only ones standing in the way of Li Shao's "ascension". After more than half a year of struggle, the former harem was waiting to pull the prince down.
There are quite a few people.
Li Shao didn't care whether Xu Jian's leg injury was "good or bad". He would not try to break Xu Jian's leg just because he could jump, unless Li Shao had the ability to escape unscathed.
However, Li Shao has no one available now. It is obviously not in Li Shao's interest to personally plot the plan and injure Xu Jian.
Li Shao would be in big trouble if he personally broke Xu Jian's leg again.
Then, what he hopes more is to expose Xu Jian's feigned injury to the Holy One.
Lin Yunyan thought so and told Xu Jian so.
Xu Jian listened carefully and added: "The man behind the scenes should be the same way. He discovered that I had climbed over the wall before, but he was always cautious, so the work of testing and verification was transferred to Li Shao.
Li Shao is his chess piece, but it is not a useless chess piece. That person will not give up Li Shao just to deal with me.
Therefore, their response is an exposure rather than a murder."
Lin Yunyan frowned when she heard this.
All principles are principles.
Uncle An Yi is alive, Marquis Dingbei is doing well, and their auxiliary government and Uncle Chengyi's mansion are going smoothly. To say more, the Empress Dowager is still here, but the person behind the scenes has lost the ability to speak in the court.
British public.
Comparing the two sides, the person behind the scenes will never stand in the light at this moment. He needs Li Shao, who is easy to handle and can cause trouble, to eliminate dissidents for him.
If Li Shaozhen and Xu Jian fight to "die together", the people behind the scenes will also suffer a big loss.
Therefore, Xu Jian can be tricked, and the prince can also contribute. As long as the intensity is controlled well and not both sides suffer, it is the most suitable situation.
Lin Yunyan could figure it out clearly, but it was uncomfortable to hear the words "exposure" and "murder" in her ears.
She really didn't want Xu Jian to get hurt again.
Xu Jian's leg injury is recovering. Although it is slow, it is getting better.
If anything else, it fulfills what Xu Jian once said, "Some things are destined to happen," and that is exactly what Lin Yunyan wants to try to save.
Xu Jian calculated the injury at Yumenguan and kept the injury within the range he could accept. If it was because of her persuasion to "try to treat it", the good news came, breaking the original balance and causing
A more serious injury...
Lin Yunyan thought that she couldn't get over this hurdle.
Xu Jian is used to being injured, but she is not used to it. She is still pursuing a "complete" victory.
Not only did she bring down Li Shao and uncover the man behind the scenes, she and Xu Jian were able to live until their old age. Moreover, Mrs. Xu did not go crazy and Xu Jian's injuries became lighter and lighter.
However, ideas are ideas, and it is not easy to implement them.
They are on a new path.
They didn't know where or when Li Shao's attack would come from this time, so they could only resort to tricks. They were not passive, but prone to changes.
Lin Yunyan took a deep breath, and her nose was filled with the strong smell of medicinal wine.
She raised her eyes and looked straight at Xu Jian.
She knew him well enough to guess what he was thinking: "If you want to set up Li Shao, you have to trick him."
Xu Jian was not surprised that Lin Yunyan could see through it.
Silence is recognition.
Seeing this, Lin Yunyan said again: "You have thought of a way, but it is risky, at least for your legs. You dare not tell me directly."
Xu Jian laughed. Knowing that she cared about him, he didn't make up words to fool him: "There is a blind bear in the paddock."
Lin Yunyan's eyes suddenly tightened.
"In four years, it will be this big," Xu Jian gestured, "Now it is smaller, probably this big."
Lin Yunyan looked at his gestures. It was indeed a little smaller, but it was still huge. It was quite scary to imagine.
"Li Shao has been banned for so long. Not only did he not have fun, he may not have gone hunting for a long time." Xu Jian comforted and rubbed the back of Lin Yunyan's neck, "Don't worry, I just scared Li Shao. I'm not crazy either."
Feed him to the bears."
Lin Yunyan pursed her lips: "Are you sure?"
"Yes," Xu Jian replied, "I scared him once with that bear."
Lin Yunyan's breathing stagnated.
The "once" Xu Jian mentioned, she understood, was a fragment of his long life.
He spoke calmly, but those sour emotions still bubbled up from Lin Yunyan's heart.
And these are what Xu Jian calls "experience". He has been through deep and shallow water, one foot deep and one foot shallow. He uses his experience to apply and try it in the current strange situation.
In fact, it is more reliable than blindness.
It is also more guaranteed than passively waiting for Li Shao to take the lead and then split the move.
After all, that's what Li Shao does. He sincerely doesn't want to hurt both sides, but it will develop to that point.
It's better for them to lay out their plans here and give Li Shao a stage to fight and kill.
Lin Yunyan managed things smoothly, but she was feeling depressed.
She motioned to Xu Jian to bring the medicinal oil bottle and poured some into her hand.
Smelling the strong smell of medicinal oil, Lin Yunyan said: "Since you are actively scheming against him, you have to do more for him, so that the profit from this transaction is large enough."
Xu Jian put the bottle back on the table.
Hearing her muttering as if she was complaining or acting coquettishly, he couldn't help it. He curved his lips and smiled: "I know, I can't let A-yan fall like that in vain."
The next day.
In the morning, Li Shao had been staring at Xu Jian.
The more he stared, the more he sneered in his heart.
I can't tell, Xu Jian is really pretending to be injured, and pretending to be decent.
Well, now I'm moving my ankle again, looking like I feel uncomfortable after standing for a long time.
But obviously, just yesterday, he could climb the rockery and run down the mountain quickly.
When Feng's wife told him the news, Li Shao was stunned.
Good guy!
In broad daylight, he was observing politics in the Ministry of Rites, listening to a group of officials, big and small, arguing about this and summarizing that. However, Xu Jian was at ease and at ease, and was still interested in going to the garden to enjoy flowers with Ning An.
He was just afraid of comparing himself to others, so how could Li Shao not be jealous.
He also wanted to drink wine and embrace a woman, but he couldn't get what he wanted now. He had to keep track of time and rush back in front of the palace gate.
As a prince, he couldn't even ask his father to agree to open a palace outside the palace.
The more Li Shao thought about it, the more annoyed he became. Xu Jian did whatever he wanted, which annoyed him. Xu Jian pretended to be hurt, which annoyed him even more.
He turned his head and glanced at his father beside him.
He must expose Xu Jian's feigned injury, and he must think of a good way.
Eunuch Cao called to the court.
Li Shao hasn't thought of a solution yet, but this doesn't affect his yin and yang attitude towards Xu Jian.
When passing by Xu Jian, Li Shao stopped and said, "Have you eaten Laba porridge today?"
Xu Jian lowered his eyes and replied: "I simply used a few of the ones from my house before going to court, and will use them later when I get back."
During the Laba Festival, porridge would be delivered. Before noon, the in-laws and neighbors would all bring porridge, and they would also deliver it to themselves. For the sake of good luck, Lin Yunyan was in charge of all these transactions.
Xu Jian also knew Lin Yunyan's habit. In the end, each family would take a spoonful of the food they sent, and even if they were mixed together, they would all be eaten. The bonus was enough, so they didn't care about the taste.
Li Shao nodded: "You come to the imperial study, then go to Cining Palace, and take it back with you, so you don't have to make another trip."
The two of them were talking, but the Holy One didn't pay attention and left first.
Eunuch Cao heard this, and said with a smile: "Maybe people have been sent out of Cining Palace. It's cold, so don't bother Duke Fu."
Li Shao laughed loudly: "The chariot comes and goes, what's the trouble?"
After saying this, he strode away without giving Xu Jian a chance to refuse.
Eunuch Cao had no choice but to smile at Xu Jian.
If you ask him to tell you, the prince doesn't know what he was thinking about.
The imperial study room and Cining Palace are not the only places where porridge is delivered outside the palace. Save this trip, there are other trips. Besides, the job of delivering porridge is not hard at all, and it is a blessing.
And those who receive reward money and those who are shameless will not have their turn.
The prince's words mean that he will be rewarded with silver for nothing.
Eunuch Cao thought that His Highness the Crown Prince would not have thought of such details. Even if he thought of saying a few words, he would not be able to disobey the Crown Prince since the words had already been said.
"Then you will work hard to assist the Duke." Cao Gong said fairly.
Xu Jian smiled.
Very good, he happened to also want to find Li Shao.
