The woman Yang Guang rewarded Gao Jiong came from a very good family, Lanling Xiao, eighteen years old. She was a distant relative of Empress Xiao. She was originally a female official in Yeting Palace and one of Empress Xiao's personal attendants.
Her appearance was also very good, so Yang Guang sent someone to call the girl and presented her to Gao Jiong in person.
Gao Junfa's wife had passed away long ago. He also had several concubines and gave birth to two concubines. But from now on, Xiao will undoubtedly become the highest-status concubine in the Gao family because she was rewarded by the emperor.
Empress Xiao personally arranged the sedan chair and sent Gao Jiong back to his house.
On the way back, Gao Jun couldn't laugh or cry: "It's hard for Mrs. Xiao to be so young and have to serve me, an old man."
"Dugu Gong is getting stronger and stronger now, just as strong as before," Yang Ming joked.
Gao Jong smiled bitterly and said: "I am not Yang Su. I don't have as much energy as him. I will follow you on this northern tour. Your Highness needs to be careful in everything while he stays in the capital."
"Don't worry, my aunt has agreed to stay in Beijing. With her here, there is someone we can discuss everything with," Yang Ming took the opportunity and said, "How about we go meet her?"
"Okay," Gao Qiao nodded.
In history, Yang Lihua contracted an illness in the Qilian Mountains and died in Zhangye while following Yang Guangxi on his tour, so Yang Ming tried his best to persuade Yang Lihua to stay in Beijing because he did not want his aunt to pass away early.
This is his big backstage.
Yang Lihua’s daughter and son-in-law are all present at Yang Lihua’s house, including Yang Lihua’s granddaughter Li Jingxun.
This little girl's body was in worse shape than when Yang Ming had seen her before. She was almost a sickly child. She was very thin and her face was as white as paper, without any color at all.
So the atmosphere in the room was very depressing. Yang Lihua looked melancholy and didn't want to talk at all.
With such a good family condition, it can be said that I have used all the available medicines and invited all the famous doctors, but there is no improvement.
Yang Ming really doesn't understand medicine, otherwise he would really like to help.
The best doctors in the Sui Dynasty, Chao Yuanfang and Sun Simiao, were all examined. If these two people couldn't do anything, then there was really nothing they could do.
However, these two people also basically judged that the root cause of the child's current disease is the lungs, because Li Jingxun has often experienced symptoms of shortness of breath, breathlessness, and severe coughing recently. Could it be childhood pneumonia?
If this thing was not well maintained in ancient times, it would be fatal.
Yang Ming said solemnly: "The child's body was not like this before. Although he has always been weak, it is not as serious as it is now. What is going on?"
"You followed me to Jiangdu, and that's what happened," Yang Lihua said with a dark expression on her face, feeling very guilty inside. She felt that she shouldn't take her child on a long trip, which was one of the reasons why she didn't want to run around with Yang Guang anymore.
.
Yang Ming really had no choice. He didn't know how to prepare penicillin. Besides, even if he could prepare it, it would be useless to take it orally. The industrial conditions of the Sui Dynasty made it impossible to make needles.
The anti-inflammatory effect of traditional Chinese medicine is very limited, and Yang Ming saw that Chao Yuan Fang and Sun Simiao's prescriptions contained coptis, honeysuckle, andrographis, dandelion and other herbs with anti-inflammatory effects, which showed that these two people used the medicine very accurately.
Although Yang Ming also knew some local methods, he didn't dare to use them indiscriminately. If they were used incorrectly, they would have the opposite effect.
But there is no lily in these prescriptions. Yang Ming knows a folk remedy. Eat more lily for pneumonia and bronchitis. The effect will be very good, and there will be no side effects. It will not conflict with the prescriptions prescribed by Sun Simiao and others.
Although Li Jingxun was frail since childhood, he definitely did not suffer from any serious illness. He would have died of a serious illness long ago, so how could he survive until now? In the Sui Dynasty, wind and cold were fatal.
So Yang Ming said: "When I was in Jingzhou, I heard a folk remedy. I might as well give it a try."
Of course Yang Lihua didn't know how to try, she frowned and said, "You don't know medical skills, so don't talk nonsense."
"It doesn't matter, just make a soup with lilies and adenophora and drink a little every day," Yang Ming said.
Yuwen Eying, who was in a hurry and went to the doctor, said quickly: "It doesn't sound like it conflicts with the prescription. I might as well call Sun Simiao and ask."
Yang Lihua nodded and ordered the servants: "Summon us quickly."
Half an hour later, Sun Simiao came.
This was the first time Yang Ming had seen him, but Sun Simiao could remember Yang Ming. It was this kid who sent people to kidnap him from Zhongnan Mountain to Hedong County.
Sun Simiao said: "These two herbs are indeed suitable for the disease. This is Adenophora adenophora. It is not easy to find. People in the north do not use this medicine. It is mostly used in folk remedies in the south of the Yangtze River. If you want to find it in the capital, you may have to find some medical clinics opened by the south."
, the Imperial Medical Office does not have this medicine, so you can try this method. Although it may not be effective, at least it does not conflict with the medicine I prescribed."
Yang Lihua was instantly overjoyed. Her granddaughter only got the disease when she went to the south with her, so she thought that the disease should be a southern disease, so southern medicine must be symptomatic. Yang Ming said that he heard this method from Jingzhou, and Jingzhou and
Jiangnan has the deepest communication, which shows that Yang Ming is not talking nonsense.
The imperial doctors in the palace were all from the north, and most of the medicines they used were traditional northern medicine methods, so Yang Lihua had high hopes for Yang Ming's method.
This is a case of seeking medical treatment in a hurry. It’s just two kinds of traditional Chinese medicine. The effect is definitely not great. It needs to be taken for a long time. Yang Ming feels that the probability of curing Li Jingxun with this method is 0.00001%.
.
He regretted it now. He shouldn't have been so reckless. Don't let anything happen and he took the blame. So he said to Sun Simiao:
"Are you sure it doesn't conflict? Please don't use the medicine indiscriminately?"
Damn it, Sun Simiao's face is turning green. Why did you prescribe such a prescription that I was using the medicine indiscriminately? You are really a treacherous and cunning person.
"It's true that it's not harmful. It's all lukewarm medicine, so it won't be a problem," Sun Simiao said.
"Then you go find it," Yang Lihua hurriedly ordered: "Come here, take Imperial Physician Sun with you, search for this medicine in the capital, and buy as much as you can find."
Yuwen Eying and his wife also followed.
Yang Lihua's mood finally improved, and she no longer had a tense face.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yang Ming suggested: "Why doesn't my cousin have another child?"
It's not safe to have more than one, but it's safe to have a few more.
Yang Lihua glanced at Gao Jiong and said, "It's not that I don't want it. One of my cousins died in infancy the year before last, and your cousin hasn't recovered yet."
"How come I haven't heard of it?" Yang Ming said blankly.
Of course you don't know that just like your wife, she died not in infancy but had a miscarriage.
"Don't ask anymore about sad things," Yang Lihua said flatly.
Yang Ming nodded.
Yang Lihua was happy to learn that Gao Jiong had returned to the court, so she told him that if nothing happened, he could come and sit with her more often.
The Minister of Punishment, Yu Wenbi, who was dismissed from his official post, was from Yang Lihua. Before Yang Guang touched him, he also said hello to his sister.
Yu Wenbi was too old, already seventy-four. Yang Lihua knew that her brother was unhappy with Yu Wenbi, and Yu Wenbi really couldn't control his mouth. It was better to let him down than to be killed in the future.
In history, Yu Wenbi was killed together with Gao Qiong and He Ruobi. The three charges were all for slandering the emperor. Yang Ming felt that, at least for now, Yu Wenbi was going to die. Most likely because of Yang Guang's long-term interests.
Sister, you are showing off your dignity.
After all, the evidence for what Yu Wenbi said mocking Yang Guang was conclusive, and he himself admitted it.
Cursing the emperor has been a capital offense since ancient times.
After returning to the palace, Xu Jing came over to inform him that Yu Wenkai, Minister of Industry, was here and waiting in the guest room.
So Yang Ming went to see the other party first.
"I pushed back on the canal matter. I really don't want to be associated with King Qi," Yu Wenkai seemed to be in a good mood.
Two-thirds of the Grand Canal in the Sui Dynasty was built by him. However, when mentioning the Grand Canal in history, people will only think of Yang Guang. Yu Wenkai could have left his name in history, but because of the great chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, it caused great harm to China.
This caused huge irreparable damage, so that the Grand Canal, which benefited the country and the people, became a major crime for Yang Guang to abuse people's power for great success, and Yu Wenkai was completely buried in the history books.
Yang Ming was stunned and said: "If you don't go, who will?"
"Of course it's Yan Pi. He is an expert. There will be no problem in leaving the canal to him," Yu Wenkai said with a smile.
Yang Ming nodded. Indeed, Yan Bi is also a technical talent. He is currently in charge of Taifu Temple, in charge of the national handicraft industry, textile industry, smelting and casting, and is also in charge of the emperor's inner treasury.
"Then why Minister Yuwen came to see me today?" Yang Ming asked.
Yu Wenkai nodded: "Let me borrow some people from you. Although I recommended the Canal Superintendent, your Majesty gave me a new job. This job requires a large number of manpower. The guards of the military government are the most suitable. Your Majesty asked me
I'm looking for you to allocate 6,000 people from the right guard to me."
"What new job? So many people are needed?" Yang Ming asked.
Next, Yu Wenkai proudly explained to Yang Ming the specific structures of the three large-scale luxury projects.
To put it bluntly, Yu Wenkai's mission is to let his father pretend to be cool.
Yang Ming nodded and asked Xu Jing to call Yang Gongdao.
Although he is the right guard general, he basically does not go to the military government. Specific affairs are handled by the two generals below, which is equivalent to a chief and two deputies. The chief holds power but does nothing, and the deputy is exhausted.
Live with responsibility.
After calling Yang Gongdao and giving some instructions, Yang Ming sent Yu Wenkai away. This old boy was a talkative guy who couldn't stop talking. He couldn't stop talking. Yang Ming was really annoyed.
Nowadays, Yang Ming's working hours include court meetings in the morning and meetings at the Qin Prince's palace in the afternoon. The official affairs of his own palace are actually many and very cumbersome.
For example, all the custom-made ordnance from Yun Dingxing is already in place. Do you have to pay for it? The Xiangyang Navy is really poor and needs to find money, right?
The taxes of Hedong County and Xingyang County need to be sorted out, right? The construction of Yang Jin's Prince's Palace in Xingyang County has started, right?
Yang Yinjiang has acquired a piece of land in the suburbs of Beijing and plans to build a horse racing farm. The properties in her name, the properties in Pei Shuying's name, and the properties in Li Xiuning's name all have to be taken care of. There are a lot of things to do.
Yuan Wendu had already gone on a business trip to Xingyang to preside over the preliminary work for the construction of the county palace. Li Baiyao was in charge of the palace library and had been collecting all kinds of books. He also took care of birthdays of the princess and concubines and various festivals. Anyway, there were no
An idle one.
On the contrary, Yang Ming, the head of the family, is quite leisurely. After all, he is only responsible for making decisions and nodding, not doing anything.
