Ask Sword

While the three were chatting, a new guest came to visit.

Classmates, fellow villagers, teachers, firms that have business dealings with Li Ang, etc.

According to the rules, on New Year's Eve, Li Ang, a title of Counties at the founding county level, had to abandon his family and go to the palace to meet the saints, to accompany the emperor to watch the new year, eat banquets, drink, sing and dance.

I can't sleep for a few hours at home, and I have to go to the morning court the next day, to participate in the grand court meeting on the first day of the new year, to accompany the emperor to receive foreign envoys, and to listen to the congratulatory messages from state officials.

Li Ang participated once last year, but he doesn't want to go this year no matter what.

Fortunately, because of the academic exchanges in the Academy this year, Jing Guo, Zhou Guo and other envoys are relatively complete.

In order to avoid overcrowding the palace site, the Ministry of Rites allowed some nobles with titles but no real power not to attend.

Li Ang resolutely skipped going to the palace to watch the new year - it's not fun at all, it's better to eat grilled fish and watch the fireworks at home.

. Plug the mouth, slap the face. Grind the inside, grind the inside of the hole. The soup is rotten, and the bean vinegar is fried.

.The sword in your hand, the blade is freshly sharpened. Kill the demons, and get rid of the demons.

There was a strange singing of vomit hoarse and mocking from the street, and a mighty team of thousands of people walked along the street, wearing grotesque and terrifying masks on their faces.

This is not a change, but a parade to exorcise Nuo, implying to expel ghosts and evil spirits and pray for happiness and peace in the coming year.

The lyrics are also some positive energy content about how to hang and kill demons.

Slap a ghost, tear off its ribs, pull out its tongue, set it on fire, chop it into minced meat, and throw it into an oil pan.

There will be a exorcism parade in Weizhou every New Year, and I saw a grander one in Chang'an last year, and Li Ang is no stranger to this.

In a sense, this kind of Nuo drama full of martial arts can also be regarded as speaking harshly to the ghosts lurking in the dark side of the world.

It's not much different from Don't let me see you on Suzaku Avenue. If I see you, I must pull off your hood and slap you in the face.

But this time, the two uncles and aunts who were wearing ghost masks and playing Nuo Weng and Nuo Mu stopped in front of Judefang inexplicably, singing and dancing to Li Ang, with a very respectful attitude.

.What does it mean?

Li Ang couldn't help but asked Yang Yudao in a low voice.

Yang Yu scratched his head and said, Uh, I guess you came here to make a fortune. Do you have any other trinkets with you?

accessories.

Li Ang touched his pockets. The jade pendants on his body were all useful, but he couldn't find them after searching, so he simply took off his silk clothes and handed them over.

Yu State wears fur coats and furs during the New Year, sheepskin is the most common, while rich people wear fox fur, leopard fur, mink fur and so on.

In addition, a sleeveless silk coat called 裼 should be put on over the fur to cover part of the fur's plush, so as to conform to the etiquette and look more polite.

Nuo Weng and Nuo Mother, who led the exorcism, took Li Ang's silk coat respectfully and put it on the float, maybe they would take it back to the temple for offering

Sure enough, it is so strange to be missed and recalled while alive

Li Ang shook his head helplessly, slandering him endlessly.

At this time, Song Shaoyuan, who had had some wine, came out to blow off his hangover, and the four of them stood at the door chatting. The topics ranged from studies in the academy, prices in Chang'an, to Song Shaoyuan's marriage.

Song Shaoyuan said: I plan to get married this year, pick a good day, and get married.

Li Ang was a little surprised, So early?

It's getting late. It should have been settled early last year.

Song Shaoyuan looked back at the living room without explaining too much. But other people can roughly guess the reason - Aunt Song has already come to Chang'an, and may live in Chang'an for a long time in the future, so it is indeed time to start a family and start a business.

It's better to settle down sooner.

Ji Linglang nodded thoughtfully, looked at Li Ang, and asked with a smile, How about you, Risheng, have you thought about lifelong events?

ah

Li Ang opened his mouth, married? That's too far away.

Not to mention the alien memories that he had inexplicably awakened, even the moss parasites in his body were very troublesome.

He was about to find an excuse to prevaricate, but he heard the sound of the wheels of a carriage rushing from the corner of the street.

Um?

Song Shaoyuan frowned slightly. The streets are the busiest on New Year's Eve. Isn't it afraid of bumping into people when the carriage drives so fast?

Whose family is it?

Li Ang also moved his gaze over.

I saw the carriage approaching at a high speed, stopped suddenly in front of the mansion, and three people jumped out of the carriage.

All three are acquaintances.

Minister of Taichang Temple, Qiu Jing, medical officer of the Imperial Medical Office, and the Ninth Prince, Li Shan, King of Light.

Why are these three people here? And also appear at the same time?

Yang Yu and the others looked at each other, and at the same time they stepped forward to greet him, doubts suddenly arose in their hearts.

Taichang Temple is in charge of rites and music, suburban temples, and the affairs of the country.

The Imperial Medical Office is responsible for the education of medical officers in Chang'an, and is now also responsible for the management of the ward.

And the King of Light, Li Shan.

Any Chang'an citizen who likes to chat in the market knows that his mother's surname is Wu, which makes him the most embarrassing and conspicuous prince in the palace.

Sunrise,

Qiu Jing squeezed out an ugly smile on his face,

He and Xuegong Fuxue Siye Tantai Leshan are close friends, and they also have contacts with Li Angduo in the management of the ward, so they directly called, Is it convenient to talk?

It's convenient, just tell me if you have anything to say.

Li Ang nodded. On New Year's Eve, a third-rank official like Taichang Siqing should have a drink with the emperor in Daming Palace. King Guang Li Shan should also be there.

It's obviously not good news for them to appear here with Qiu Jing.

Qiu Jing took a deep breath, Something happened in Suzhou.

Water poison.

The Minister of Taichang Temple said gloomyly: Water poisoning in a large area.

Li Ang's pupils shrank suddenly, the water is poisonous, it doesn't mean the water is poisonous,

According to On the Causes and Symptoms of Various Diseases Water Gu Symptoms, water poisonous gas gathers inside, making the abdomen gradually enlarged, shaking and making noises, often wanting to drink water, and the skin is thick and black, as if swollen, which is also called water gu.

There are many causes, which may be excessive drinking, damage to the spleen and stomach, water and dampness stop gathering,

It may be due to the gradual decline of qi and blood, edema of the face, intestines and abdomen.

More likely. Parasites.

Elbow Reserve Emergency Prescriptions has a saying: People in water poisoning. When they first get aversion to cold, slight pain in the head, and pain in the eyes. Insects eat the five internal organs, and the heat is extremely annoying. If you can't help but take it for eight or nine days, a good doctor can't cure it. .

A Thousand Gold Prescriptions even bluntly stated that this life-long illness cannot be cured by force.

In Yu State, suffering from water poisoning is basically equivalent to being sentenced to death.

extensive water poisoning

Li Ang held back his shock, and instantly understood the reason why King Guang Li Shan appeared—his fief is there.

Li Ang asked in a deep voice: When did it happen? How many people got sick? How is the condition?

I don't know the exact time.

Li Shan said bitterly: We have just received the news. Jiangnan Road is now a mess. Counting those villages and towns that are inconvenient to count,

Only the current estimated number of patients may be more than 100,000.
