Just when the major forces in the DPRK and China were talking a lot about the secret meeting between Zuo Lanshan and Shen Changmao, Zhao Junchen also received a secret letter from Zuo Lanshan.??
The content of the secret letter was very simple, that is to say, his transaction with Shen Changmao went smoothly. Shen Changmao agreed to support Chen Dongxiang to take over the vacancy of Minister of the Ministry of Industry, but in exchange, "Zhao Party" had to help Shen Changmao in the next period of time. Mao stabilized his position as cabinet minister.
After reading Zuo Lanshan's secret letter, Zhao Junchen nodded lightly, with a look of satisfaction on his face, and said to himself: "It seems that everything is going well. If nothing else happens, the Ministry of Industry will still stay in its hands. As long as the work is done, If nothing happens to the Second Department of Household, the political enemies in the DPRK and China will not be able to easily seize my leverage... Well, I have no worries for the time being."
However, although Zhao Junchen was very satisfied with Zuo Lanshan's performance in the transaction with Shen Changmao, before receiving the secret letter, Zhao Junchen received information that Zuo Lanshan's secret letter did not explain everything. The purpose of Chang Mao's contact with Zuo Lanshan was not simple either.
According to the news from Zhao Junchen's informant, Shen Changmao met with Zuo Lanshan for secret talks. In addition to connecting with the "Zhao Party" to ensure his own status, he also tried to lure Zuo Lanshan out of Zhao Junchen's control and split Zhao. the purpose of the party.
During this secret conversation, Shen Changmao's words contained many hints of this, but Zuo Lanshan did not dare to take up the matter at all.
However, Zuo Lanshan did not report these contents to Zhao Junchen, and seemed to intend to conceal them to the end.
However, Zhao Junchen didn't really care about Zuo Lanshan's concealment. After all, if these things were made clear, everyone would feel embarrassed. Zuo Lanshan's concealment may not mean that he has different intentions.
What's more, even if Zuo Lanshan does have a different intention, Zhao Junchen is sure to be able to control it.
Zhao Junchen is not a god and cannot control people's hearts, nor can he make everyone his puppet. Therefore, Zhao Junchen accepts the normal state of "people have different minds".
However, although Zhao Junchen cannot control people's hearts, whether he can guide the thoughts of his subordinates in a direction that is beneficial to him depends on whether Zhao Junchen's methods are clever.
So far, Zhao Junchen has done quite well.
Without thinking deeply about Zuo Lanshan's concealment, Zhao Junchen just continued to mutter to himself: "But if you don't worry about the long-term, you will have immediate worries, and the other way around is the same. Although the matter with the Ministry of Industry has been solved, the remaining things still remain There are many...my own marriage, the upcoming Beijing inspection, the exhibition of the United Shipping Company, the rectification of the Sichuan salt tax, and the establishment of a medical school for Zhang Decheng, all of which cannot be ignored..."
While muttering to himself, Zhao Junchen shook his head slightly helplessly.
The higher you are in a high position, the more ambitious you are, and the more things you have on hand, whether it is official business, private matters, party disputes in the court, or your own ambitions, one after another, one after another, one after another. There are so many people here, there is no free time at all. I can only think about the comfortable life of wearing red sleeves and reading under the lamp.
After sighing slightly, Zhao Junchen quickly suppressed the helplessness and exhaustion in his heart.
After handling official duties for a while, Zhao Junchen suddenly remembered something, raised his head and said, "Here comes someone."
As soon as Zhao Junchen finished speaking, Xu Qingyan pushed the door open and asked, "Master, is there something wrong?"
Zhao Junchen nodded and said: "I heard that Dr. Zhang went to the East Palace to diagnose Zhao Shancai's condition today at the invitation of the prince? Is he back now?"
Xu Qingyan replied: "I just came back not long ago."
Zhao Junchen nodded again and said, "Invite him to come to the study to talk."
After receiving Zhao Junchen's instructions, Xu Qingyan immediately left the study and went to look for Zhang Decheng without any delay.
Not long after, Zhang Decheng came to the study.
"Master Zhao, do you have something to give me?"
Zhao Junchen put down his hand, raised his head and said directly: "You diagnosed Zhao Shancai today. Did you diagnose anything? I just saw Zhao Shancai not long ago. His health was still fine at that time. Why did he suddenly take a turn for the worse?"
Hearing that Zhao Junchen was asking about Zhao Shancai's physical condition, Zhang Decheng's expression became much more serious. After pondering for a moment, he slowly replied: "To express my regret, I have been diagnosing Zhao Shancai for two days in a row, but I still can't diagnose Zhao Shancai's condition.
The cause of the condition. If we only look at the symptoms, Zhao Shancai's pulse is silky and his mouth is blue. The specific manifestation is repeated cramping in the intestines and stomach. It should be that the intestines and stomach have been damaged, but I can't figure out why his intestines and stomach were damaged.
Understand, it happened suddenly for no reason, and it is not like an ordinary stomach problem. And whether I prescribed medicine or injected an injection, I can't alleviate the condition, I can only give him a little pain relief."
Speaking of this, Zhang Decheng looked ashamed. As a miracle doctor respected by thousands of people, he could not even find out the cause of the patient's condition. The patient's condition became more serious but he was helpless. This was a serious problem for Zhang Decheng.
Shock and excitement.
On the other side, after hearing Zhang Decheng's reply, Zhao Junchen's eyes flickered slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
Then, Zhao Junchen asked with a serious expression: "Is Zhao Shancai's condition serious? What will be the result if he is not cured?"
Zhang Decheng's expression was even more serious than that of Zhao Junchen, with a hint of pity, and he said: "If it is not cured, the consequences will probably be very serious. In fact, although Zhao Shancai deliberately concealed many things, according to my judgment
, I am afraid that black blood has appeared in his bowel movements during this period, and if this continues... Well, I heard that Zhao Shancai is quite talented, and I think his character is very rare. I am really jealous of talents, what a pity."
Although Zhang Decheng didn't say it clearly, Zhao Junchen still understood it.
According to Zhang Decheng's speculation, if Zhao Shancai's condition is not under control, he may die from stomach problems.
While Zhao Junchen was deep in thought, Zhang Decheng misjudged Zhao Junchen's intentions and sighed: "I heard that Zhao Shancai is a distant relative of yours, Mr. Zhao. Now that I have become your lord's retainer, then what?
Naturally, I will try my best to diagnose and treat Zhao Shancai... However, Zhao Shancai's condition is really weird. I have searched medical books for the past two days and can't find any cases. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is an isolated case, which makes me a little confused...
...So, sir, you'd better be mentally prepared."
As he spoke, Zhang Decheng's face became even more ashamed.
Seeing that Zhang Decheng had misjudged his own intentions, Zhao Junchen did not say much, but said slowly: "Miracle Doctor Zhang, there is no need to blame yourself. People have limited resources, and even you may not be able to cure all the diseases in the world. Just try your best.
"
In fact, Zhang Decheng couldn't guess the cause of Zhao Shancai's illness even though he tried his best, but Zhao Junchen guessed some clues.
It's not that Zhao Junchen's medical skills are better than Zhang Decheng's, but in a certain way, Zhao Shancai's condition is closely related to Zhao Junchen, and was even caused by Zhao Junchen!
