Chapter 27 Retaliation

Chapter 27 Revenge

The process of Sun Yong's escort to Beijing was not so smooth. On the way, this scholarly academic and political master refused to wear shackles and locks, and even threatened him with death. He was quite arrogant as if he could not punish the doctor or the courtesy of the common people. No wonder he was arrogant. He had been under house arrest and did not know what kind of storm there would be in the capital. He just wishedly believed that based on his relationship with the Hai family and the He family, he was disproportionately dismissed because of his small greed for bribery.

The soldiers in charge of escorting did not dare to act rashly. Lian Yuchang and three other censors also wanted to return to the capital to meet the saint. Therefore, after asking them for instructions, the people sent by Hao Yuansheng prepared a slide rod for Sun Yong alone, which solved the problem. Although Lian Yuchang was disdainful, he knew that Tai Chengtong's death had already made the emperor quite dissatisfied, so he did not want to make any mistakes in small matters. It was precisely because of this that he had to follow the escort team slowly, and it was thousands of miles away from Sichuan to the capital. If anything happened, no one could get rid of it. He really didn't want to worry Bao Huasheng anymore.

The more they were afraid of something, the more trouble they were. But after ten days of departure, Sun Yong vomited and had diarrhea due to fatigue. The whole team had to find a doctor to treat him when passing by the city. Unfortunately, this disease was not something that medicine could work in a short time, so they could only take the doctor on the way. Several soldiers even secretly cursed Sun Yong's splendor. If it weren't for the boss pressing him, some people might have had an attack in person. These soldiers, no matter what the backstage they were in, they seemed to them, that person in the car was just a prisoner and was not qualified to be stinking.

The road to Shu is difficult, and it is harder than to reach the sky. When they came, Lian Yuchang and others did not realize this. When they returned, they had completely understood the difficulties of wading through mountains and rivers. In ancient times, Sichuan students had to go to Beijing to take the exam several months in advance. It was not easy to cross mountains and rivers and walk the plank road. Even if they were prepared, some people delayed the exam. Fortunately, the Sichuan man's slide skills were really good. Although they were not as stable as ordinary official sedans, the speed of shaking was not slow. Even so, they delayed a lot of time.

Seeing that he was about to arrive in Zhili and was about to arrive in the capital, Sun Yong had another problem. He was already weak and suddenly became seriously ill. The famous doctor who was looking for a small town in Sichuan could no longer sit still and told Lian Yuchang and others that Sun Yong might not be able to hold on to the capital. This blow shocked these people. There was no need to think about the emperor's anger. Even the He family and the Hai family might put various hats on them by then. For their own hope and future, Lian Yuchang ordered people to ask for help from the capital overnight, and directly asked for a famous doctor again, trying every means to save Sun Yong's life.

When it comes to Sun Yong's illness, it is naturally inseparable from the secret actions of someone. However, it is incredible to be able to do such a move with so many people. Lian Yuchang felt helpless for the first time. He stayed in the Supervisory Office for so long, investigated and dealt with many major cases, and always dealt with conspiracies. However, he still had insufficient knowledge of such a deadly act. Famous doctors came to take their pulses and treated them under the temptation of soldiers, but in the end they shook their heads helplessly. Lian Yuchang only felt that the hope was getting slim.

However, famous doctors are famous doctors after all. Thanks to these people's troubles, Sun Yong's life will be safe for at least a few days. Whether it is acupuncture, tonic, or various folk remedies, even Yuchang can only be tried as long as it can be used, as long as it can be used, the premise is that people cannot die. Fortunately, those famous doctors are also people who know the right degree, and most of the prescriptions used are in line with the doctrine of the mean. No one will give a violent medicine for a false reputation. After all, his own life is still important. After nearly ten days, the imperial physician sent by the emperor finally arrived, and Lian Yuchang was relieved.

The head and deputy doctors of the Imperial Hospital came. The two of Chen Ruhai and Chen Lingcheng were dispatched at the same time, which surprised the three censors, and they all understood the emperor's anger. They were both veterans of Xinglin. After taking the pulse, they discussed how to treat them, and ignored the so-called "famous doctors" standing next to them. When those people saw the two leaders of the Imperial Hospital, their usual arrogance and pretentiousness had long disappeared. After all, for these doctors, it was undoubtedly the greatest honor to be able to enter the Imperial Hospital, not to mention that these two are both of them.

Sun Yong's illness was originally Chen Lingcheng's hands and feet, so he pretended to check it out and took out his own prescription. Chen Ruhai did not let down the name of a doctor. At first glance, he could see that this former student was poisoned by the government. Although he did not understand what poison it was, based on his years of experience in practicing medicine, the medicinal materials listed on the prescription were indeed five or sixty percent similar to Chen Lingcheng's. The two discussed for a long time and finally took a compromise prescription. According to Chen Lingcheng's later narration, it was nothing more than letting the unlucky Sun Yong struggle for a while. However, the two had a very tacit understanding of the poisoning, and kept silent in front of Lian Yuchang, just waiting to return to Beijing to meet the saint before making any more conspiracy.

By the time their long team entered Beijing, it was already late autumn, and the open and secret struggles in the court had never stopped. However, Sun Yong's accident made the Xiao party seize the opportunity. Although he did not attack immediately in the court, just as Xiao Yunchao was criticized at the beginning, He Furong was also upset by rumors and was unwilling to live in peace.

As for Feng Wuyan, he was even more unlucky. Zhejiang Governor Fang Mingjian was also one of the people who came to Beijing to report his duties this time. Compared to the promotion of other colleagues, he stayed in the position of governor for seven years and had not moved. He felt aggrieved enough in his heart. Unfortunately, Jiangnan's taxes were heavy, and Feng Wuyan had been there for a while, so how could he let go easily? However, Xiao Yunchao insisted on going against him. He wrote a letter to the emperor on the grounds that Fang Mingjian served as the governor of Zhejiang for many years and had no credit and hard work, demanding that Fang Mingjian be promoted to the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu. Qin Xiyuan, the former governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, was transferred to Liangjiang to replace the governor of Liangjiang who was about to rest. This sudden move made Feng Wuyan feel dizzy, but he did not dare to object on the spot.

At this time, Fang Mingjian sat in Feng Wuyan's mansion, with a look of helplessness and frustration. He stayed in the fireworks place in Jiangnan for so long, and when he thought of going to the northwest to serve as the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, he felt his scalp numb. Feng Wuyan's face was even more ugly, and Xiao Yunchao made this move in a flash. No matter how he thought about it, he was revenge. Feng Wufang, the king of An County in the northwest military camp, was not a vegetarian, and he had never been in harmony with him. Fang Mingjian didn't know when he could be transferred back. However, Qin Xiyuan was the emperor's confidant and had no contact with He Xiao's family. Even if he wanted to write a letter to object, there was no reason.

"Your Highness, what should you do now? Although the Governor of Shaanxi and Gansu is a second-rank official, the two provinces have no outstanding things, and even if they are well managed, they will not get any benefits." Fang Mingjian finally said with difficulty, "Besides, judging by Lord Xiao's posture, the position of governor of Zhejiang may have a willing candidate. If he did not mention this time, he probably was worried that his highness would oppose it. Jiangnan Shilin had a good impression of His Highness. If he was used by someone with a heart, he would be in trouble."

Feng Wuyan was walking in the study irritably, and without Fang Mingjian reminding him, he was already in a mess. A lot of things were mixed together. Even if he could do it or had a way, it would be hard for a good wife to cook without rice. He was still so helpless when he lacked a strong backstage. Now that the demons were dancing in the court, his uncle, Lan Chengyi, the Minister of Works, was sick at home. Even the few other officials of the Lan family also watched the mood, none of them was moved.

"I can't take care of that much, Hao Chen, the current plan is to stabilize the position." Feng Wuyan had to comfort Fang Mingjian first. Although there are many local officials standing on his side, there are really few officials like him. They can only act cautiously. "The Governor of Shaanxi and Gansu is also considered an important position. Although he has been a little more hard, he can be promoted again after two years. Hasn't Qin Xiyuan now taken over Liangjiang?"

Fang Mingjian listened to these insincere words, but his heart sank into the bottomless abyss. Feng Wuyan undoubtedly showed in disguise that there was no room for any change in this appointment. He had met Guo Hanjin, who had just returned from Gansu last time, and was deeply shocked by his old age and fatigue. Thinking of the tough folk customs over there, it added a little bit of fear. But now that things have come to this, it seems that he is really going to stay in that cold place for a few years.

Feng Wuhen was extremely excited. As long as Xiao Yunchao did not hide behind, his subordinates would naturally come up with many good ideas. Now, the lack of Zhejiang governor is empty. Even if Guo Hanjin can't go to Sichuan, it would be good to go to Jiangnan to enjoy it. Guo Hanjin remembered the scene of his like an ant on a hot pan some time ago, and he couldn't help but feel a little funny. Now the situation in the morning is changing rapidly, and no one can tell what it will become, so support and intelligence are the most important. Fortunately, for Feng Wuhen, a prince who is not strong, both happen to be lacking in nothing.

"Your Highness, do you really plan to let the officials go to Zhejiang if you can't do it in Sichuan? Lunlun is now serving as a censor in Zhejiang. Why don't your highness try to make him take another step?" After many years, Guo Hanjin has long left behind his grudges at the time, but instead put himself in his shoes and remembered Lu Simang. After all, Lu Simang is still wandering around the third rank, so it's time to be promoted.
