In Chaoge City, the wind was surging, as if a war was about to break out.
Not only the ministers were aware of this, but even the ordinary people were aware of it. They all closed their doors tightly and did not go out unless they could.
Song Yiren was originally Yang Ren's subordinate. He was away from home these days because he had to buy salt mines.
Jiang Shang, who had nothing to do, had been observing the changes in Chaoge City, and saw that the fate of the country was like a raging fire cooking oil. It was obvious that Emperor Xin had nothing to do, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. If Emperor Xin died at this time,
I'm afraid there will be changes in the general trend of becoming a god.
Then I silently looked at the luck of the Guishen Ancestral Temple, and found that it was red and black, which was obviously a sign of impending disaster.
Jiang Shang couldn't help but shook his head, and he couldn't help but have the idea of becoming an official.
Song Yiren's wife was unhappy when she saw that Jiang Shang had nothing to do all day long, and was even eating at home and waiting to die. Then she thought of marrying him a daughter-in-law to make him feel at home.
He immediately talked about the matter with Jiang Shang. Jiang Shang had been practicing Taoism for many years and had gray hair. How could he be willing to marry a wife?
At this time, Song Yiren, who came from outside, also came back. When he heard his wife said that he wanted to marry Jiang Shang, he immediately agreed.
Immediately, within a few days, they found an old girl named Ma and Jiang Shang, and under the arrangement of Song Yiren, they bowed to heaven and earth and got married.
After marriage, naturally he and Song Yiren could no longer live together, so Song Yiren gave him a large yard and money and food. For a while, the money-obsessed Ma family was very happy.
Jiang Shangben had been practicing Taoism for many years. After getting along with this Ma family, he felt that this woman was blinded by her power and obsessed with money, so he immediately became unhappy. In addition, because of her advanced age and the disharmony between her husband and wife, the two of them had always disliked each other.
Ma disliked Jiang Shang's idleness and saw that there was a lot of grain in the warehouse, so he asked him to go to the market to sell the surplus grain to supplement the family income.
Jiang Shang was already bored, so he immediately agreed, carried two stones of grain, and ran to the market to sell it.
Jiang Shang had no intention of selling grain. When he arrived at the market, when others asked about the price, he ignored him and immediately gave him the nickname "Old Man".
Jiang Shang went out and found that Chaoge City was loose on the outside and tight on the inside. There were even more soldiers patrolling the market.
There were gangsters all over the market. After observing Jiang Shang for a long time, they found that Jiang Shang didn't know how to sell at all. Then he rolled his eyes, dropped ten shell coins, and took away the two stones of grain.
Jiang Shang had no intention of selling, and he didn't care when he saw someone taking it away. Fortunately, he stayed in the market for a while, observing the situation and having some time at leisure.
In the past few days since Jiang Shang got married, there have been more soldiers coming and going in Chaoge City. Occasionally, you can still see those inhumans in Dawu Royal Palace. Obviously, this is the human king who has used all his cards.
As soon as these non-humans entered the city, they immediately aroused panic among the people. Everything was available in the market. And after Dawuyu entered the city, even the city defense was handed over to these non-humans.
Immediately afterwards, a king's order was posted, which said that on the first day of the next month, the human king would personally sacrifice to the ghosts and gods and announce it to heaven and earth.
But Jiang Shang saw this article in the royal edict: Li people are not allowed to approach the ancestral temple, and those who violate it will be killed!
Obviously this was a sign that the Human King was about to take action. Jiang Shang couldn't help but worry about the people of Li. If they really fought with the ancestral temple, there would be a river of blood.
Just as he was worried, a servant on horseback shouted in the market, "Who is the doctor? My master is going to have a difficult delivery and needs a doctor!"
In Chaoge City, those who really want to cure diseases need the help of witch doctors, but now that the Guishen Ancestral Temple is under siege, where can one go to find a witch doctor.
The servant was also anxious, so he rode in the market and shouted, hoping to find a doctor.
"I'll accompany you to see it!"
Anyway, he had nothing to do, and with the attitude of saving one person, Jiang Shang walked out directly.
The servant looked at it first, but then said, "There is no other way, it's up to you."
The servant looked at the old man, dressed in civilian clothes, and he didn't look like a doctor at all. But the master was anxious and couldn't wait any longer.
As we drove all the way, we saw a house belonging to a wealthy family. There were guards guarding the door. It was obvious that this was a great family.
Entering through the small door and walking into the inner courtyard, a group of women were anxiously waiting in the courtyard.
"Have you not invited the doctor yet? Are the guards sent to the palace back?"
The mother at home shouted directly, obviously it was his daughter-in-law who gave birth.
"Madam, I have invited a doctor."
"Oh, please!"
The old mother shouted directly, and Jiang Shang walked in under the gaze of everyone.
"Jiang Shang pays homage to the Madam of the Huang family."
As Jiang Shang walked along, he naturally learned that this house was Huang Feihu's, and that the child was his wife Jia.
"Sir, since he is a doctor, he can save people, but the inner room is the place for the women of the family. This..."
When the mistress of the Huang family saw Jiang Shang, although he was an old man, he was still a place where women gave birth, and she immediately felt unhappy.
"It doesn't matter, I can wrap the cotton thread around Madam's wrist, and through the gauze, I can naturally diagnose her pulse from outside."
"oh?!"
The mistress of the Huang family was immediately overjoyed and quickly ordered someone to prepare a gauze tent and wrap a red thread around her wrist.
…
At this time, Emperor Xin and Huang Guifei, who were discussing sacrificial texts with Shang Rong and Bigan in the Qiong room, barged in directly.
"King, help!"
Di Xin turned around and saw that it was his Concubine Huang.
"My dear concubine, why are you helping me? Get up quickly."
"Your Majesty, my sister-in-law suffered a difficult childbirth and her life is in danger. Now my brother is away and has no owner at home. Please come to rescue me as soon as possible."
"Difficult childbirth? Come and prepare your horses. I have to go to the Huang Mansion."
Without further ado, Emperor Xin took Huang Guifei and got directly into the Luan chariot.
Shang Rong and Bigan did not come because they had to prepare sacrificial rituals and because this was a woman giving birth.
…
When Di Xin arrived at the Huang Mansion, he happened to see an old man diagnosing his pulse with a silk thread.
"Xuansi pulse diagnosis?"
Di Xin did not know this pulse diagnosis method that only existed in legends.
No one was disturbing me at the moment, I just stood aside and watched.
The old man naturally sensed the arrival of the human king, but he did not get up, and instead concentrated on taking his pulse.
After that, he mentioned several medicinal materials, which happened to be available in the Huang Mansion, and then ordered his servants to boil the medicine.
"Wait a minute, let me take a look at the prescription."
The servant was about to boil the medicine, but was stopped by Di Xin. He opened the prescription for Di Xin to take a look.
Jiang Shang stood up, bowed to the king, and then fell silent.
"Go and make some medicine, this prescription is correct!"
As soon as Emperor Xin said this, the Huang family was overjoyed and immediately went to boil the medicine.
"Irregular fetal qi. The fetus is close to the upper part, full and painful, and it is said that the baby is hanging. Jia Shi has been depleted for more than a day. At this time, the qi is frightened, the upper burner is blocked, the qi cannot flow, and the lower burnt yin qi has not dispersed, and the accumulation of bloating is
Also, it’s difficult.”
"With just a few flavors of this medicine, it can relieve the upper burner and regulate the qi, while dispersing the lower burner. He is indeed a master of medicine. I wonder what your name is?"
Emperor Xin talked hurriedly. Although he didn't diagnose his pulse, he most likely made a diagnosis.
