Anyone who breaks into the Jinluan Hall without permission will be punished by beheading. Of course, you can't break into the Chuigong Hall casually. Who is so bold and dares to break in without being summoned? And he even yells. Do you think your life is too long?
It is true that you cannot enter the palace casually, but there are exceptions. There are a few people who can enter the palace at any time. Meng Zhong is one of the people with this honor. He has only recently received this honor, and today is his first
Use this honor for the first time.
However, the first time he used this privilege to enter the palace to meet the emperor, he was blocked by the eunuch on duty outside the Chui Gong Hall because the emperor was receiving other ministers.
Meng Zhong had no choice but to wait outside the palace. However, he relied on his old age. Although he was waiting outside the door, he quietly approached the palace door to listen to what was going on inside.
Eavesdropping on the emperor's words is a serious crime. No one else would dare to do it, and the eunuch at the door would never dare to pretend not to see it. But Meng Zhong is different. He is the emperor's "new favorite". In the past, which military commander has never dared to do so?
The privilege of meeting the driver at any time? He is the first person.
Meng Zhong had been here for a while, and he arrived when Long Guangning asked Lu Wenkuan if he had accepted the boy's benefits. At first, he thought that Lu Wenkuan had engaged in malpractice for personal gain and the emperor knew about it, but when he heard Lu Wenkuan say that he and the boy were sworn brothers,
He immediately knew who the boy was.
He was wondering why Lu Wenkuan came so far. It couldn't be just to offer a few lanterns, right? He believed that Ma Hanshan must also have given Lu Wenkuan fire and water lanterns. If Lu Wenkuan really came here for this matter, then it would be true.
It's time to be punished. What's the etiquette of this? A general who defends a city without permission leaves his post just to deliver a lamp? Beheading is deserving.
But it sounds like it's not what he thought.
Meng Zhong hadn't figured out what Lu Wenkuan was doing in Beijing to meet the emperor. The emperor in the palace said that he wanted to see Ma Hanshan, but Lu Wenkuan asked the emperor not to see him. In a panic, he used words indiscriminately... He couldn't help it anymore and had to break in. He
I'm afraid that Lu Wenkuan, the more he talks, the more unclear he becomes, causing trouble for Ma Hanshan for no reason.
Someone broke in without permission. Long Guangning was about to get angry when he looked up and saw that it was Meng Zhong. He was surprised and said: "Meng Aiqing, your injury is healed? Didn't the people from Tai Hospital say..."
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. The old minister's injury is no longer serious, because the old minister met a strange man. What the imperial doctors could not do, the strange man was done in a short time. Moreover, his medicine has miraculous effects. As long as
After two days of taking the medicine, the wound has begun to heal. Originally, he asked the old minister to rest in bed, but there are some things I have to see him, so..." Meng Zhong is advertising for Ma Hanshan again.
"Ah? That strange man is a miracle doctor. Who is he? Where is he? I want to reward him." Long Guangning was overjoyed.
He was really overjoyed. Bi Jiyu was too old. Although he still held a position, he was actually in the state of becoming an official. Among the reliable military attaches of the main war faction, the one who is now the oldest and 100% loyal is
Meng Zhong was killed. Meng Zhong was the person he had placed great hopes on, so when he heard that Meng Zhong was injured in a conspiracy, he was very angry. When he learned that Meng Zhong was injured by a barbed arrow, he even ordered the Tai Hospital to use all its strength to
He went to seek treatment. Unfortunately, the doctors had no reliable way to retrieve the arrow.
Could it be that Long Guangning is like this? Because Xu Xi was treated by the Meng family based on personal friendship. To put it bluntly, Xu Xi secretly visited Meng Zhong for treatment. Since it was secretly visiting Meng Zhong, naturally he could not report it to the superior. So, too
The news the hospital gave to Long Guangning was from three days ago, so Long Guangning was naturally surprised when he suddenly saw that Meng Zhong was fine.
"Your Majesty, that strange man is that boy." Meng Zhong replied with clasped fists.
"That boy? Ah, that's that boy? That boy can actually cure diseases?" Long Guangning was surprised again.
"Your Majesty, that boy said that he can only heal wounds but not diseases. I have seen the way he heals wounds. It is simply shocking. If those rotten scholars see it, they will definitely criticize them with words and writings, saying that the body is affected by parents and so on.
Apostasy or something like that..." Lu Wenkuan interjected.
"Is his healing method special?" Long Guangning was even more surprised.
"It's indeed very special. Your Majesty, do you know how he took out the barbed arrow from my body? He used incision to cut open my skin directly to take out the arrow, and then sewed it up with needle and thread... This kind of healing method,
It’s really unheard of and unseen,” Meng Zhong sighed.
The most basic healing procedures such as debridement and suturing were earth-shattering in the eyes of the ancients. For the ancients, not only was this healing method unique, the most important thing was that the ancients who were brainwashed by the "sages" believed that cutting hair was
It’s all disrespectful to parents….
So, how can you cut the skin?
"Really? Meng Qing, he really cut open your muscles? But now... when did this happen?" Long Guangning was shocked. The imperial doctor reported a few days ago that although Meng Zhong was hit by the arrow, the place where he was hit was not
It was vital, but because of excessive bleeding and the fact that the arrow could not be taken out for a long time, the situation was serious.
But now...this old guy is in great spirits.
"Back to the emperor, the operation was performed three days ago. In fact, the day after the arrow was taken out, I felt very relaxed and could get out of bed. I was originally going to enter the palace yesterday, but my family was worried that the wound would rupture, so
Keep an eye on me..." Meng Zhong really wanted to enter the palace yesterday. Firstly, he wanted to apologize to the emperor for not arriving on time, and secondly, he wanted to thank the emperor for sending the imperial doctor.
Meng Zhong was tied to the bed by his sons yesterday. Today, the wound seemed to have healed very well so he was allowed to get off the ground. However, he sneaked into the palace quietly while his sons were not paying attention.
"Look...let me see the wound sutured with needle and thread..." Long Guangning was really curious.
"Your Majesty, isn't this good..." Meng Zhong was frightened by the Emperor's curiosity.
The ancients had some very strange ideas. For example, even couples were not allowed to expose their bodies in front of each other. It was disrespectful for subordinates or subordinates to expose their breasts in front of their superiors or distinguished people. For example, it was disrespectful for a minister to expose his breasts in front of the emperor.
, disrespectful.
Long Guangning wanted to see Meng Zhong's wounds, but Meng Zhong was frightened.
"Hurry up." Long Guangning insisted.
Meng Zhong didn't dare to disobey, and he didn't care that much about Su Ding Fu Ru's behavior, so he took off half of his clothes and exposed the wound on his shoulder.
The wound has healed, of course it is not cured, but the muscles of the wound have grown new skin and are connected together. The blood on the edge of the wound has dried, and the regular sutures and the wound are like a centipede crawling on Meng Zhong's shoulder.
.
"It's really sutured with thread. How can this thread... how can the thread be attached to the flesh?" Long Guangning finally saw this "astonishing" healing method.
"Back to the Emperor, the boy said that the sutures need to be removed. If there is no accident, the sutures can be removed in about ten days." Meng Zhong said while stroking the wound, "Your Majesty, actually when the imperial doctors are helpless, I
I was mentally prepared, but I didn’t expect that at the most desperate moment, that kid would come..."
"That kid is really a monster." Long Guangning sighed.
"No, Your Majesty, I think that boy is a lucky star who can help me sing the praises of my great achievements for thousands of years." Meng Zhong put on his clothes and said solemnly.
"Lucky star? A thousand years of great achievements?" Long Guangning stared at Meng Zhong and said with some excitement, "Meng Aiqing, what do you say?"
"Yes, the lucky star is the lucky star sent by God to assist the emperor." Meng Zhong said very seriously, "I praise these years for the many disasters, constant wars, and natural disasters. As the saying goes, things must turn against each other when the disaster reaches its extreme. I will surely bless you. God will take pity on me and praise the people, so he will naturally send down lucky stars."
What Meng Zhong said is as if he didn't say it. It's just nonsense.
But the ancients followed this trick. Everything can be attributed to God. As long as it has something to do with God, people will believe it. Of course, the first person to believe is the emperor, because he is the son of heaven. If he didn't believe in heaven, how could he be the emperor?
Therefore, Long Guangning deeply believed what Meng Zhong said.
But how could this lucky star help Da Song? Long Guangning was very confused.
"Meng Aiqing, I want to let that kid serve the imperial court, but Lu Aiqing said no, saying that guy will not be controlled by others or the imperial court. Is he still my lucky star?" Long Guangning shook his sleeves and replied. Go sit on his dragon chair.
Yes, if you don't serve the imperial court, how can you be a lucky star? But Meng Zhong also knows that that boy can never be a slave. In the eyes of that boy, those kings, ministers, fathers and sons are simply bullshit.
"Your Majesty, I want him to contribute to my great praise, but I don't necessarily have to control him. To be honest, I agree with Chang Shan's words. Not to mention that kid, most people with amazing talents will not be controlled and driven by others. Fortunately? Fortunately, that boy loves me after all, so it is not difficult to get him to contribute to the country." Meng Zhong said confidently.
The reason why Meng Zhong said this is not that he understands Ma Hanshan better than Lu Wenkuan, but that he understands people's hearts better. He knows very well that people like Ma Hanshan want to treat him like an ordinary person, grant him a high official and a generous salary, and then put him It is absolutely impossible to use it like a slave.
But he also saw Ma Hanshan's weakness. That boy liked to talk business.
Business is trading. As long as someone still wants to trade, there will naturally be a way for him to serve the country.
"Oh? Meng Aiqing, please tell me...oh...Aiqing came to the palace because of that boy?" Long Guangning finally understood why Meng Zhong went to the palace to see him before he recovered from his injury.
"Your Majesty, I came to the palace not for that boy, but for my song." Meng Zhong paused and said, "However, if I want to be rich and powerful and restore the country, that boy is indispensable."
Haha, of course he couldn't say that it was because of that boy who came to the palace to meet the emperor. He could only say that he was serving the country and the emperor, but no matter why, he was always related to that boy... His "dialectical" statement was simply speechless.
However, as the emperor, Long Guangning liked to hear what Meng Zhong said.
"Oh? Meng Qing, let me hear it," Long Guangning said.
"Take advantage of the situation and give him what he wants in exchange for what we want. A stable and prosperous country is also the best for him. I believe he must also have this idea." Meng Zhong paused and said, "According to As far as I know, that kid is unfathomable, and no one knows what is in his mind. He seems to be able to come up with a clever plan at any time, and can create a wonderful thing at any time. He can also have strategies for training troops and strengthening the country. Conspiracy. Therefore, Your Majesty, we must use this person."
