Chapter 146 Genius Medical Officer

 “Cough cough cough—”

He spilled some tea on his hand due to a violent cough. He hurriedly wiped the tea stains on his body. The smile on his face, which was always calm and at ease, finally had cracks and rarely became vivid.

Lu Zhen felt that this picture was much more pleasing to the eye.

Pei Yunying tidied up her surroundings, then looked at Lu Huan and said in disbelief: "What are you talking about?"

Even though doctors do not distinguish between men and women, even though Lu Zhuo has never been associated with shyness, he is still a young man, and she, a young girl, told him this matter so frankly in the room, It's a bit too shocking.

Lu Zhen thought his appearance was quite interesting, and said curiously: "Master Pei doesn't know either? It seems like it's really a secret."

"Of course I don't know," he said, brushing off the tea residue on his body in a panic, "How do you know?"

 Lu Zhen remained silent.

"you…"

“I usually use needles for diagnosis,” Lu Zhu interrupted him and knocked on the medical box on the table. “It doesn’t make any difference if you look at one more needle or one less needle. Mr. Pei doesn’t need to show that look.”

These words were extremely harsh. If Jin Xianrong were here, she would be so angry that she would die, but she said it seriously. I don't seem to notice the irony in it at all.

Pei Yunying put her hand on her forehead: "Stop talking..."

 Seeing him like this, Lu Zhu felt strange. This conductor made the Lord seem to be doing everything with ease and ease, but it turned out that he couldn't listen to such words and wasted his handsome appearance.

  It is true that people cannot be judged by their appearance.

Pei Yun was silent for a while before speaking, with a complicated look on his face: "Are you really..."

It's not that he has any prejudice against medical officers practicing medicine, it's actually that Jin Xianrong's moral integrity is lacking, and Lu Zhu has never been a submissive person. It doesn't seem right to say that she was taken advantage of by Jin Xianrong.

 “Of course it’s fake.” Lu Yan said.

Pei Yunying was startled.

Lu Zhuo didn't know what he was thinking, so he only said: "Master Pei also knows that to me, a man's body is no different from dead pork. It doesn't matter whether you look at it or not. Furthermore, although his illness is troublesome, it is not difficult to treat. Mr. Pei doesn't need to worry too much." He pressed the paperweight on the prescription he just wrote: "Here is the prescription. Sir, just boil the medicine as I said and give it to them. I will come back in seven days. "

 At this point, Lu Zhuo paused for a moment, then looked at Pei Yunying silently.

Pei Yunying noticed her gaze and paused: "What?"

Lu Zhuo nodded and said calmly: "Master Jin's disease is more common in older men. If Master Pei also has this trouble in the future and needs help, you may wish to find a lower official. With the friendship between the two of us, I will also help Master Pei. Keeping secrets.”

As soon as these words came out, there was a dead silence in the room.

For a moment, Lu Zhen felt that his handsome face froze, as if he was trying his best to keep it calm. After a long time, Pei Yunying said calmly: "Thank you, but I don't need it."

"Really?" Lu Zhuo showed a regretful expression, "It's such a pity."

After Fang finished speaking, a brisk voice came from outside the door: "What are you sorry about-"

 Duan Xiaoyan poked his head in from the outside and was stunned when he saw it was Lu Huan: "Doctor Lu, why are you here?"

Lu Zhen said no more, put the medical kit on his back, and said quietly to the two of them: "I'm going back first."

She went out carrying the medical kit. Duan Xiaoyan looked at her back and scratched his head, saying, "Strange, why do I feel that Dr. Lu is happier than usual today? Did he encounter some happy event?"

He turned his head again, as if he had just remembered the scene he had just seen, pointed to the chair where Lu Shun had been sitting, and said excitedly: "But brother, you actually let her sit in your chair! Don't you usually don't let people touch your things? ?”

Pei Yunying has always been a germaphobe, and he doesn't like others touching other people's things. No one dares to sit on that chair except himself, but today he saw Lu Zhu sitting on it. If I guessed correctly, Lu Zhu also used Pei Yunying's pen and paper.

 Tsk tsk tsk, you are really tolerant of her.

 No one answered for a long while.

Duan Xiaoyan turned around and saw Pei Yunying sitting at the table, holding her forehead with one hand and looking like she had a headache.

 The young man's curiosity aroused and he stepped forward: "What were you just talking about? What does Doctor Lu regret?"

Pei Yunying did not raise her head, but stretched out her hand to push his head aside and said coldly: "Shut up."

 …

 After coming out of the Palace Commander's Mansion, Lu Zhuo didn't go anywhere else and went back to the Medical Officer's Hospital.

In the hall, the doctor came in and was instructing other medical officers about their duties. When he saw Lu Zhuo coming back, he dismissed the visitor with a few words, walked up to Lu Zhuo and asked: "Did Medical Officer Lu give Jin Shilang a consultation? "

 Lu Zhen nodded.

 He looked at Lu Huan and said, "Is nothing wrong?"

  Lu Hu said: “No.”

Chang Jin breathed a sigh of relief.

He is a good old man. During the spring examination, Lu Huo's test paper was the first one he got a perfect answer, so he always paid special attention to Lu Huo. When Cui Min asked Lu Zhu to treat Jin Xianrong, Chang Jin was worried for a while. After all, Jin Xianrong's virtue... few people in the entire medical hospital were willing to treat him.

 He ​​was already prepared for Lu Zhuo to come back crying, and to go to the hospital with a shy face to ask for help. However, it was unexpected to see Lu Zhuo behaving as usual and looking the same as usual.

"Medical Officer Lu," Chang Jin said, "I have something to tell you. Cao Huai suddenly caught a cold and was bedridden. He took a leave of absence. I'm afraid I won't be able to go to Jin Mansion with you these days." He looked at Lu Xu's face, " I will report to the hospital to appoint another medical officer to accompany you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Zhuo interrupted him: "No need."

 Eat a meal often.

“I saw Mr. Jin’s condition today. It’s not serious. One person is enough. One more person would be troublesome. There’s no need to waste everyone’s time just for me.”

Chang Jin’s thought of words suddenly got stuck in his throat: “…Really?”

Even if it wasn’t Jin Xianrong, it would be good to have one more person to share the burden of regular medical practice, but Lu Zhen just rejected his kindness?

 Even looks a little disgusted.

Lu Zhen nodded at him and carried the medical box into the hospital again.

Chang Jin stood there, looked at her back for a long time, and murmured: "As expected of the first on the red list in the spring examination, he answered the test perfectly..."

 “He is indeed not an ordinary person.”

 Suddenly he thought of the person who asked for leave, and his face darkened.

“There is no wind and cold in the morning and there is no wind and cold in the evening, but I am in bed at this time.”

 Whist your sleeves and walk away.

 …

                                              

In Cao Mansion, Cao Huai, who was lying on the bed, suddenly sneezed.

Seeing this, the boy in the room said worriedly: "Young Master is not really catching a cold, is he?"

"Go, go, go," Cao Huai said impatiently, "It's bad luck."

Early this morning, he did not go to the clinic with Lu Zhuo. After returning to the hospital, he and Cui Min took leave. The weather changed in spring, and many people in the medical hospital felt cold. Cui Min didn't bother to check whether a new medical officer was pretending to be sick, so he returned home smoothly.

 Cao Huai did it on purpose.

He has not been a broad-minded person since he was a child. On the day of the spring examination, Lu Zhuo made him unable to step down in front of his classmates in Gongyuan. Cao Huai was worried about this for a long time. When Cui Min ordered Lu Zhuo to go to Nan Pharmacy, he secretly gloated about his misfortune. Unexpectedly, Lu Zhuo had some bad luck and was spotted by Qiu He, the envoy of the Royal Pharmacy Hospital.

Cui Min didn't know whether it was intentional or something, but he ordered him to go to Jin Xianrong with Lu Zhu to treat him. To be honest, not only women avoid Jin Xianrong, but men also hate him when they see him. During the month he went to see Jin Xianrong, he was ridiculed and criticized every day by Jin Xianrong. The patient's renal cyst carbuncle was particularly difficult to treat. Seeing no improvement, Jin Xianrong's patience was exhausted day by day. Unexpectedly, At this time, someone took advantage of him, and he just happened to throw this hot potato out.

 So he took a leave of absence without hesitation.

This can be regarded as getting rid of a difficult errand, but also adding trouble to Lu Tong. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.

Cao Huai leaned against the bed and chuckled, his eyes full of disdain.

It doesn't matter if Lu Zhun pretends to be aloof and doesn't care about anyone. After all, he is an ordinary person with no status and background. He may not be able to treat Jin Xianrong for a few days, just like the female doctor from Hanlin Medical Academy before. After becoming an official, she became another concubine of Jin Xianrong and worked as a slave for others. Thinking this way, my mood seems to be much better. Cao Huai put his hands behind his head and leaned back, looking at the tent above his head. He seemed to have seen Lu Zhuo groveling behind Jin Xianrong, and sighed with satisfaction.

Seeing this, the young man cautiously said, "How long do you plan to rest, young master?"

"It's windy and cold, so don't wait for a few more days." Cao Huai smiled and said, "Just wait a little longer."

 …

Just one visit to Jin Xianrong's house to see Jin Xianrong aroused many thoughts, but Lu Zhen didn't know about the undercurrents and didn't care much about it.

 At night, everyone in the medical hospital was asleep, and Lu Yan and Lin Danqing were walking in the corridor of the medicine warehouse.

Although Jin Xianrong’s illness has become clear, it cannot be cured overnight. Not only will the prescription be changed, Lu Zhu also plans to make a new medicine. Some medicinal materials need to be distributed by the Royal Pharmacy Hospital, and some common ones are available in the medical warehouse of the Medical Official Hospital.

Lin Danqing originally thought that Lu Zhuo would be unhappy when he went to Jin Mansion today. Unexpectedly, when he came back, he saw that Lu Zhuo's expression was as usual. He asked a few more questions and finally felt relieved. Lu Yan said that she was going to the medicine warehouse to get materials, so Lin Danqing volunteered to go with her.

"The person named Jin probably suffered a lot after suffering from renal cyst and became less arrogant. I heard my father say that when he used to be ridiculous, he would touch the female dogs passing by to take advantage of them." Speaking of this matter, Lin Danqing whispered to her, "I'm afraid God couldn't bear to see it, which is why he got this disease. To be honest, if you weren't the medical officer who treated him, I really wish he would be lucky and not be able to harm talents in his life. good."

She spoke freely, but Lu Meng just smiled and lowered his head to pick out the herbs he wanted to use from the medicine cabinets.

Lin Danqing helped her pick it up and asked, "But sister Lu, you went to the Palace Commander's Mansion today, how was it?"

 Lu Huo: “What is it like?”

"How are the guards there?" Lin Danqing said: "I heard that the guards of the Commandery's Mansion in the Beijing Ying Palace had to go through many selections, not only based on their martial arts, but also their appearance. It is said that they are the best in Shengjing. All the handsome men are in the commander's palace in the capital palace, and their commander can also tell the clues. What did you see when you went there today? Are they all handsome and brave?"

Lu Tong closed the medicine drawer and said, "If you want to go, I'll tell Doctor Chang Zheng and ask you to do my errand."

She was only thinking about Qi Yutai from the Ministry of Household Affairs. It was a waste of energy to run in both directions. Moreover, it was not pleasant to face Pei Yunying's temptation every time. It was better to leave the matter to Lin Danqing and be a beautiful adult.

Lin Danqing was stunned: "You are too generous." After thinking for a while, he shook his head: "An ancestor of my family once said that looking at handsome men more is another way for women to take care of themselves, making them open-minded and obedient. The anger is pleasant. You looked at Jin Xianrong's face on one side and suffered an eye injury. On the other side, you looked at the man in the Palace Commander's Mansion to repair it, which can be considered to offset the damage."

“Sister Lu, as a friend, I will never steal your prescription!”

 Lu Huan: “…”

 Things in the world are indeed like honey to one and arsenic to another. What she avoids becomes a panacea in other people's mouths.

After saying a few more words, all the needed medicinal materials were put into the bamboo basket. Lu Yan and Lin Danqing left the medicine warehouse and planned to return to the dormitory. When they walked to the door of the medicine warehouse, they suddenly heard footsteps coming from ahead.

Immediately afterwards, a child's voice suddenly sounded: "Who is it?"

 The two of them went out one after another.

Far away from the stone steps, in the hazy yellow ground illuminated by the lanterns under the locust tree, two long dark shadows appeared at some point.

 The shorter one was dragged behind a little medicine boy in blue. As for the other one…

He is a thin young man with elegant features. Wearing a light green brocade robe, her black hair was tied into a bun with a green bamboo hairpin. She looked like a solitary crane in the clouds, or like a swaying green bamboo in the night. She had an aura of purity and elegance, and slowly walked towards Lu Zhuoer from a distance. People are coming.

As he walked to the stone steps at the entrance of the hospital, he stopped. Lin Danqing seemed to know this person. He took advantage of the lantern light to see his face clearly, and hurriedly said: "Medical Officer Ji."

 Ji Medical Officer?

 Sounds like a medical officer in the Medical Officer's Court, but his robe is not the blue robe of a medical officer.

Lu Zhen didn’t say anything, he just bowed his head and saluted.

The young man's eyes glanced at the bamboo basket in Lu Zhuo's hand: "It's so late, why are you still picking up medicinal materials?"

Lin Danqing smiled and said: "The patients that Medical Officer Lu is responsible for treating are in some difficult conditions. He plans to use these medicinal materials to develop new prescriptions to see if he can make some new medicines."

Medical officers at Hanlin Medical Academy always seek stability, and so-called new drugs are rarely tried. Hearing this, the man named "Medical Officer Ji" was startled and looked at Lu Zhuo in surprise.

  I paused at this sight.

The woman stood at the foot of the stone steps in the yard of the medicine warehouse. The night wind blew the corners of her aqua blue skirt. The blue was also a touch, as quiet as the frown of the owner of the skirt.

 He suddenly frowned.

Lu Zhen could feel the other party's scrutinizing eyes falling on her face, as if there was a cool night breeze, and then he heard the other party's cold voice.

 “Have we met somewhere before?”

Lu Zhuo was suddenly startled.

Something gradually emerged from the bottom of my heart, like a not-so-beautiful dark stone hidden at the bottom of the pitch-black water. It suddenly came out of the blue, causing shallow ripples to appear on the calm water.

She clenched her fingertips slightly, pursed her lips and said nothing.

 The man took another step closer.

Lu Zhen's body was slightly stiff.

The other person frowned slightly and stared at her face carefully, as if he wanted to see her facial features clearly. Looking straight ahead, one can see the delicate patterns embroidered on his collar, as well as the light, bitter medicinal fragrance.

He stared for a long time, so long that even Lin Danqing on the side felt something was wrong, and was about to interrupt, but the little medicine boy on the side didn't know what he thought of, his eyes lit up, and he reminded: "Master, are you talking to this person?" The medical officer saw you earlier on Queer Street. It was raining that day, and your clothes were stained by the rainwater from someone's umbrella, and the banquet was delayed... It was this medical officer who wet your clothes at that time!"

As soon as these words came out, the two people standing were stunned.

The pattern on the collar of the person in front of me also seems to be blurred by the night, blurring and blurring, becoming the miserable autumn rain on Queer Street.

At that time, not long after the tribute case, Liu Kun died, Wang Chunfang went crazy, and her two sons were imprisoned. She saw the fate of the Liu family, but when she turned around, she was surprised by the Qi family's carriage, and the tip of her umbrella He accidentally poked a passer-by.

Lu Chen still remembered that the other party was standing in the drizzle in a snow-white robe, as far away as an unreal shadow in an ink painting. He walked past her and gradually disappeared from the crowd, like the dampness after a rain. hallucination.

Now the illusion has become reality, solidifying into a more silent shadow in the night,

 For a while, no one spoke.

Lin Danqing noticed the strange atmosphere and endured it. Finally, he couldn't help but tugged on the corners of Lu Zhuo's sleeves, smiled at the young man, and said: "Medical Officer Ji, it's getting late. If there's nothing else, let's go first gone."

The other party just came back to her senses and said nothing more. She nodded lightly to the two of them before leading the medicine boy up the stone steps.

 After he left, Lin Danqing breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Zhuangruo asked unintentionally: "Who was that person just now?"

 “Ji Xun.”

 “Ji Xun?”

Lin Danqing was surprised: "Have you not heard of Ji Xun's name? You shouldn't. The old men at Hanlin Medical College always keep his name on their lips. What's the matter of 'he has outstanding medical skills before he even reaches the crown'?" My family is not a bachelor, and ordinary people can definitely get rich... When I was studying in Taiyuan Hospital, these words made my ears tingle." He sighed again, "What a handsome young man, I was stunned to see him. My face just feels bored.”

  Lu Zhen asked: “Is there a bachelor in his family?”

"Isn't it? His father, Mr. Ji, is a bachelor of Guanwen Palace, his grandfather is a bachelor of Hanlin Academy, and his elder brother is a bachelor of Fuwen Pavilion. The family is a civil servant, but this talented medical officer is obsessed with medical skills and does not want to be like his father. Ordinary people who work as officials will harm us."

"Sister Lu, you don't know. In the past, when there was no spring examination, every year, I was ranked number one in the imperial medical bureau. You showed up for the spring examination this year, and I became the second. We can be considered the two prides of the Medical Academy. , but as for me, before I even reached the crown, I was declared to be on duty in the palace by the Queen Mother, and I was given a false position in the Medical Officer's Academy."

"You and I answer the questions, but he sets the questions. The outrageous questions in this year's Spring Examination of the Imperial Medical Bureau were all written by this medical officer. Look, he has such a tender face. With such a watery face, how come you have such a vicious heart?"

She finished a long list in one breath without feeling tired, and sighed again: "I heard that he went out a few days ago. I thought he would come back after a while, but I didn't expect to come back so early. This It’s a good idea, but from time to time we will ask some weird questions to test people. I’m afraid the good days for us new medical officers are coming to an end!”

She felt melancholy to herself, but Lu Huo turned around and looked towards the stone steps. They could no longer see their shadows in the night, only the swaying branches of the locust tree trembled slightly in the wind.

The night wind was blowing, and a locust flower was knocked down by the wind. It swayed and swirled in front of people, and was stepped on by green boots.

 The walking steps suddenly stopped.

 “Wrong.”

The little medicine boy walking in front was stunned and subconsciously looked at the person beside him: "Sir, what's wrong?"

 “Wrong place.”

The young man stopped and frowned: "The place where I first met her was not Queer Street."
