Chapter 34 (2/2)
Lu Mingxi thought about it and decided to tell the truth.
”To tell you the truth, Lord Lu, your trauma in prison is still healed. However, you have been in prison for too long, and you have been tortured, which has hurt your vitality. You can recover only if you have been recuperated carefully in Beijing for three or five years.”
”It's been too long. The people of Jiangzhou can't wait that long. It's spring and the summer flood season this year is not far away.”
”Lord Lu cares about the people, but your body can't afford it.”
”If you just go to the ground and go back to recuperate, how long will it take?”
”At least a year.”
”Really, can't it be faster?”
”Lord Lu, you can't do it. Other royal doctors can't do it either. You'd better keep your body tight and take good care of yourself before you can return to Jiangzhou to take office and benefit the people.”
”Return to Jiangzhou to take office and benefit the people.” Lu Mingxi heard this sentence very familiar, and remembered that it was the original words that Qiu zhiting had just quoted from childe Bingwen. He looked at the box and handed it to Xiang Chengfang.
Xiang Chengfang was puzzled, looked at Lu Mingxi and said seriously, ”Lord Lu, the doctor is the heart of his parents. Even if you bribe me, I can't tell the emperor that you can leave Beijing when you are well.”
”No, there's a pill in this box. It's a gift from a friend. I don't know if it's useful to me.” Lu Mingxi was bewildered by Xiang Chengfang's serious nonsense.
”Lord Lu, what medicine is too good for the hospital...” Lu Mingxi said as he took the box and opened it to check. After smelling the pill, he was stupid and put it ”yes?” Finish.
Lu Mingxi bluffed. He thought there was something wrong with the medicine. Shaking Xiang Chengfang's arm, he shouted, ”doctor Xiang? Doctor Xiang, are you okay?”
Xiang Chengfang regained consciousness. He closed the box and held it in his arms. He got up and made a sacred worship in the middle of the room, beating his chest, stamping his feet and holding the box.
Lu Mingxi was also silly, thinking that Xiang Chengfang had a magic barrier. He can't get out of bed again. He can only shout for doctor Xiang. Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, he opened his mouth and called the boy outside the house in.
Xiang Chengfang woke up when he heard his voice calling Xiaosi, stopped Xiaosi and said nothing, so he pushed Xiaosi out and closed the door.
”Xiang Taiyi?” Lu Mingxi gave a tentative cry.
Xiang Chengfang closed the door, straightened his clothes and robes, and straightened his appearance before turning around and walking to Lu Mingxi's bed. With great respect, he made a big gift and asked solemnly, ”this friend of Lord Lu, can you introduce me to the lower officer?”
Lu Mingxi was not sure what he meant, and he didn't want to say Bingwen's son. He asked, ”what's wrong with this medicine?”
”Yes!”
Lu Mingxi was surprised and asked incredulously, ”what's the problem? What will happen after eating?”
”It's amazing that someone can refine this pill! How can you refine it? Lord Lu, if you take this pill, you can go to the ground in less than two months. Good health and recuperation can be cured in a year!”
Lu Mingxi's heart was greatly affected by Xiang Chengfang. He reached out and motioned to wait.
”Isn't it a good thing that you let me touch it?”
”Yes!”
”Then you told me there was something wrong with the medicine?”
”No, I mean there's something wrong with the person who makes this medicine. No, I mean ordinary people can't make it at all. No, I mean...”
Lu Mingxi reached out and interrupted him.
”You touch it, too, and then say something I can understand.”
Xiang Chengfang took several deep breaths, then put his hands behind his back, walked back and forth in front of the bed for a few steps, sat down and said to Lu Mingxi, ”this pill is very precious and rare in the world. After you eat it, I'll supplement it with other herbs. I'll be able to go back to your Jiangzhou in two months, and then take it according to my prescription for another year, and my body will recover.”
Xiang Chengfang paused when he said this, and when he looked up again, he had a flattering smile on his face.
”There are many precious medicinal materials in this pill. I haven't seen one and a half of them in Taiyuan hospital for such a long time. The most difficult thing is that some of them are naturally antagonistic. I don't know what method the medicine refiner used to mix them together without harming the medicine. I really admire it. I'd like to take the people in Taiyuan hospital to ask for advice from the medicine refiner. I hope you will come back Lord Lu can recommend one or two. ”
Lu Mingxi understood this time, but he dared not promise. He didn't expect that the gift from childe Bingwen turned out to be a panacea. Precious, which makes Xiang Taiyi almost crazy
”Well... Doctor Xiang, my friend, he always likes to travel around. That's what an expert looks like. If I see him later, I'll give you one or two.”
Xiang Chengfang was very disappointed, but it was understandable after thinking about it. After all, an expert who can refine this pill should only exist outside the world.
Xiang Chengfang gave Lu Mingxi a big gift and solemnly entrusted him with saying, ”if you see him, Lord Lu must remember to introduce him!”
Lu Mingxi could only nod and replied, ”definitely...”
