Li Zhang

Li Zhang suffered serious internal injuries this time. After leaving Rongjiazhuang, he fell into a coma all the way to the capital. During this period, he vomited blood several times.After Jin Bai arrived, he administered acupuncture and medication to stabilize the situation, but he was also at a loss for the blocked meridians.

After returning to the capital, Jin Bai invited his master Zheng Pinzhi to treat him together. It was also the first time that Zheng Pinzhi met such a fragile person. He heard that he actually used force with others, and even blew his beard and talked nonsense!Jin Bai took a peek at Sima Yi, and carefully explained: "He shouldered the heavy responsibility of defending against foreign captives by himself, and it is inevitable that there will be times when soldiers meet, but no one wants to see it."

Zheng Pinzhi turned pale when he heard the words, and after making a careful diagnosis, he shook his head and sighed: "He should have suffered a severe blow when he was trying to lift his Qi, and injured his viscera. In addition, the veins he injured were weaker than ordinary people. Once the internal organs were injured, the Qi Blood stasis blocks the meridian, and forced luck to heal the injury can only increase the burden on the meridian, and eventually it will be cut off."

Sima Yi gasped: "What should I do?!"

Zheng Pinzhi looked up at Sima Yi, saw that he did not hide his concern, thought of all the previous rumors, secretly shook his head and said: "He has serious injuries and has vomited blood several times. At present, the only way to nourish the blood and nourish the qi is to dredge the meridians when the qi and blood are sufficient."

Jin Bai recalled Li Zhang's condition after being restricted by Mu Yan, and hesitantly asked, "According to my apprentice, his current situation is similar to when he was banned by General Mu. I don't know if you can ask General Mu to unblock him. ?”

Zheng Pinzhi shook his head and said, "It's also a blockage. General Mu blocked only a few key acupuncture points, which can be undone naturally. Now he has many veins blocked at the same time, just like a river channel is blocked. Once the flood comes, the embankment will be damaged Danger!"

Hearing this, Jin Bai glanced at Sima Yi, and saw that his face was getting more gloomy, so he quickly comforted him and said, "Since Li Zhang was able to lift the ban on his own, it must have been another adventure. According to his temperament, he would not take the initiative to fight against others. Miss Song must know the inside story, but now she is suffering from a cold after injury, and her condition is serious, it is better to wait for her to recover before asking about it, so as not to worry about it and cause the disease to relapse, which will affect Li Zhang instead."

Zheng Pinzhi didn't say any more, and discussed with Jin Bai the method of recuperating Li Zhang's medicinal stones, and placed them in a secluded private house.Jin Bai personally chose an honest guard and his capable housekeeper to pretend to be the landlord mother and son, and take care of Li Zhang and Zhiqing nearby.

After Li Zhang refused to see Jin Bai again, because Zheng Pinzhi also talked about persuasion from time to time, he also politely distanced himself from him.Zheng Pinzhi is a famous doctor of his generation, he has never been so slighted by others, he only thought that Li Zhang was a eccentric and ruthless person, he didn't insist on it when he was unhappy, and as the New Year's Eve was approaching, he no longer went to see the doctor in person.

Seeing this, Jin Bai was also helpless, but fortunately Zhiqing recovered well, so he could only prepare a batch of medicinal materials and pin his hopes on Zhiqing.

When the New Year approached, Zhiqing's body had recovered [-]%, and Li Zhang mentioned his plan to leave again. Zhiqing stared at Li Zhang's masked face and insisted on detecting his pulse.Li Zhang smiled casually: "Your sister has only rested for a few days, can't wait to practice medicine?"

Zhiqing said solemnly: "Brother Zhao went to the mountain to look for me with an embroidered bag. I was distracted by Rong Xie's trick for a moment, which made my brother worry! Now that I am well, even if my brother was not injured, the hard work of these days , even a good person will inevitably be tired, not to mention that my brother is still in poor health!"

Zhiqing spoke seriously, and people even approached him relentlessly. Li Zhang hid and interrupted: "My sister should know that I don't like this place, so let's leave first and talk about it later?"

"Then take off the mask and let me see!"

"You can pick it up when you leave the city."

"Brother!" Zhiqing became anxious, "These days you are wearing a mask every day, saying that you don't want to cause trouble, but in fact you don't want me to see the clues! If you want me to feel at ease, let me check the pulse!"

Zhiqing's stubborn temper came up, and Li Zhang knew that he couldn't hide, so he took off his mask and looked at Zhiqing and said, "It's just that the meridians have been blocked again, and the inner breath is blocked. Let's go back to Muyi Mountain. Well, if I stay here for one more day, I will worry about it for one more day, even if I can be cured, I will not feel at ease."

Seeing Li Zhang's face, Zhi Qingfu was startled, and when he got the pulse, his eyes were full of tears, and he asked with trembling lips: "He... my brother has worked so hard for him, yet he doesn't care about his brother?!"

Li Zhang shook his head: "It's because I don't want to have anything to do with them. It's just that I can't sleep peacefully if I stay here. How dare I let them get close." He said with a wry smile, "It's because I can't believe him."

Zhiqing clenched her lips tightly, and carefully checked his pulse again, unable to do anything about his disordered pulse, she couldn't help stomping her feet and said in resentment: "All the medicines given by my uncle ended up in Rongjiazhuang, what should I do!"

Li Zhang saw that Zhiqing was about to cry, he was taken aback for a moment, and then he relieved her and said: "I was sealed by my master that day, but I was a little weaker than usual, and I didn't feel it if I didn't move my inner energy rashly, so why should my sister worry so much?" .Left and right are just the same as before, I no longer fight with people."

Zhiqing finally cried out, but pulled Li Zhang and nodded vigorously, "Let's go back to Muyi Mountain!"

The two of them immediately packed their bags, just a few changes of clothes and a few bottles of commonly used pills. Li Zhang went to the kitchen to get some steamed buns, and then helped Zhiqing out.At that time, the idle people in the alley outside the courtyard had been cleaned up long ago, and the landlady repeatedly asked them to stay. Seeing that Li Zhang and Zhiqing insisted on leaving, they had to send them outside the door, but when the two were talking, the imperial guards had already returned to the palace and informed Jin Bai. .

When Jin Bai heard that Li Zhang insisted on leaving the capital, he stayed for a long while and took the case, and then ran to the martial arts arena and dragged out Mu Yan, who was fighting with the guards.

Jin Bai dragged Mu Yan straight out of Zhengyang Gate, keeping his face dark and silent, Mu Yan finally threw him away impatiently.

"What are you doing? You dragged me out without saying a word. I don't understand your crooked intestines!"

"Li Zhang is leaving!"

"...Where are you going?"

"do not know!"

"The emperor agreed?"

"do not know!"

Mu Yan became angry: "How could he leave without the emperor's permission?!"

Jin Bai's face became even darker: "Can't you see that the emperor wants to stay but dare not keep him? There is no reward for such a great achievement, it's not that he doesn't want to be rewarded, but he doesn't dare to be rewarded! Your apprentice is more stubborn than a stone. Still hard, you are the master of the two of them, so you don't want to solve this trick?"

Mu Yan smacked his lips a few times, found a stone and sat down dejectedly, and said in a muffled voice, "I can't teach such a disciple!"

Jin Bai approached and asked, "You really don't want to recognize him anymore?"

Mu Yan paused, then stuck his neck and insisted: "I don't dare to have such an apprentice!"

Jin Bai was suffocated with anger, pointed his fingers at him for a while, then flung his sleeves and left.He galloped his horse and chased him out of the city gate, and the hidden guard pointed him in the direction, and after running not far away, he saw the two of them sitting on the side of the road, discussing something in a low voice while resting.He jumped off the horse, looked at Li Zhang carefully, and saw that he was still pale and thin, as if he had returned to his previous appearance, and felt a sharp pain in his heart.

Hearing the sound, Li Zhang raised his head, saw that it was Jin Bai chasing him, frowned slightly, got up and saluted him, and asked lightly, "Master Jin is here to chase us back?"

Jin Bai paused, gritted his teeth and said harshly, "Yes!"

Li Zhang frowned more and more, and asked in a cold voice: "Could it be that the lord is going to break his promise and force Li Zhang to go back?"

Jin Bai avoided answering, turned to Zhiqing and said in a deep voice: "Miss Song, have you ever checked his pulse? According to Jin's humble opinion, his body has not recovered enough to travel far. I wonder if Miss Song has considered it carefully?"

Zhiqing secretly glanced at Li Zhang, bit her lips tightly and refused to answer.Li Zhang protected Zhiqing and said sternly: "I know my body myself. You don't need to say more, just keep your promise!"

Jin Bai insisted unwillingly: "I don't mean to force you to stay, it's just that your internal injury may be difficult to heal without the help of a master to adjust your breath, but how do you want Miss Song to heal you?"

Zhiqing looked at Li Zhang and nodded when he heard the words, Li Zhang responded coldly: "It's just that I can't use my energy to raise my energy, it's just like being banned again, I'm used to it."

"Are you blaming the teacher?"

Mu Yan also chased after him at some point, and felt even more uncomfortable hearing Li Zhang's words.

Li Zhang's face became paler, he hesitated again and again, and after paying respects to the younger generations, he replied in a low voice: "Li Zhang dare not."

"Hmph! What else are you afraid of? If you don't respect the emperor and the master, even if you have some credit, you should be humble and introspective. How can there be someone as arrogant as you?!"

Jin Bai became anxious as soon as he heard it, and just about to intervene, he saw Li Zhang lowered his eyes and pursed his lips, quietly listened to Mu Yan's words, and then bowed in response: "Li Zhang knows that he is obstinate and withdrawn, and he dare not insult the teacher. This incident is all to make up for the big mistake made by the mistaken release of the former prince. Li Zhang dare not take credit for it, so he stays away. If General Mu thinks that Li Zhang still did something wrong, Li Zhang has nothing to say."

Zhiqing heard that the person who came was Li Zhang's master, remembering Li Zhang's pain when he took the Gu, she couldn't help raising her head and said to Mu Yan: "My brother has never done anything wrong, so why do you blame him so much?" Do you know how much pain you caused my brother to suffer when you sealed the acupoints with your hands?!"

"Zhiqing!"

"I just want to say! You only say that my brother is weird, but you know why he refuses to stay? My brother is seriously injured but he refuses to be healed. It's not because he's unconscious, but because he doesn't dare! You are his teachers, But he is afraid that he will not be far away, why is this?! My brother has never complained to Master, but you only know how to reprimand him indiscriminately. Even if Zhiqing doesn't know the past, she already understands her brother's feelings. Now her brother risked his life After making great achievements, you don’t ask for a reward, but only ask for a safe departure, so who is in the way?!”

Zhiqing has never been so filled with righteous indignation, she is even more angry than when she was robbed by the Tan family that day.She was still weak, and after saying this, she gasped a little out of breath.Li Zhang sighed secretly and helped her sit down, then turned to Mu Yan and said, "Li Zhang is a person who has died. Fortunately, Mr. Zheng and Doctor Jin rescued him to this day. Although the world is like a white cloud, it is nothing to me. Too much obsession. Believe it or not, I am no longer entangled with the past. If the general is still worried, Li Zhang will swear here that he will never set foot in the capital again in this life!"

Mu Yan had already regretted it when he was robbed by Zhiqing, and now he was even more ashamed when he saw Li Zhang saying that, and he couldn't help reaching out to help him. That finger has long made him afraid to get close to his master.

Unconsciously, Mu Yan grasped his wrist, but the pulse under his finger surprised him immediately, and immediately took out a pill and put it into Li Zhang's mouth.After Li Zhang was forced to swallow, Mu Yan let go of Li Zhang, pulled him to sit cross-legged, and pressed against his back to heal his injuries.Jin Bai quickly stopped him and said, "Brother, don't force yourself! His meridians are too weak to take it!"

When Mu Yan heard this, he quickly recuperated, and then saw that Li Zhang's face was pale and his lips were blue, and he didn't dare to move while supporting him.Zhiqing and Jin Bai both rushed closer, each holding a hand to carefully feel the pulse.

Li Zhang waited for a while before opening his eyes, let Jin Bai pass, stood up with Zhiqing's support, lowered his eyes to Jin Bai and Mu Yan and said: "The kindness of Gu Nian, the general and the lord, Li Zhang will never forget. However, Li Zhang is born with a bad nature and is difficult to become a master, so he is really ashamed of the expectations of the two adults. Li Zhang does not seek wealth and prosperity, but only wishes to be with Zhiqing for the rest of his life, please the two adults make it possible!"

Li Zhang said that he should pay great attention to giving great gifts, even though Zhiqing was reluctant, he also bowed down together.Jin Bai smiled wryly and looked at Mu Yan. Mu Yan always looked at Li Zhang with a complicated expression, looked at his respectful indifference and alienation, and thought of his past joy and attachment, his heart was full of mixed feelings like a seasoning jar was overturned.

Jin Baiyou waited to persuade him again, but there was the sound of horseshoes rushing behind him. When he turned his head and looked back, Sima Yi and Ling Yuncong had both rushed in front of him.

"Xiao Zhang! The past is all my fault. You can relieve your anger any way you want. Cousin has no complaints! You are seriously injured and it is not easy to heal. The emperor is worried about this. If you leave here, why don't you let him go?" Adding heart disease is not a blessing for the country and the people!"

Ling Yuncong has just recovered from his injuries, and he is also described as pale and thin. Standing in front of Li Zhang, he looks like a brother. Zhiqing also opened his curious eyes, and Sima Yi, who came with him, couldn't move away. look.

Li Zhang frowned, took a few steps back to protect Zhiqing, his eyes passed over them one by one, and finally fell on Sima Yi: "The emperor is planning to use force again?"

Sima Yi paused, staring at Li Zhang with reddened eyes: "I want to keep you, but not as much as before. I already understand the true meaning of what you said that day, I want to be the same person as them !"

Li Zhang shook slightly as he couldn't bear it, his dark eyes stared straight at Sima Yi, as if trying to see his true thoughts.Sima Yi looked at him calmly and expectantly, waiting for his verdict with bated breath.

After a long time, Li Zhangzhong lowered his gaze again, and said slowly and with difficulty: "I was too naive to think that way at the beginning. The so-called difference between clouds and mud, and the difference between words and gold. Being in it, I don't want to hurt Zhiqing." He raised his eyes and looked at Sima Yi again, "In the past, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't change my fate; now, no matter what I do, I will inevitably be criticized. Li Zhang's life is like It’s not easy for me to live, so how can I stand up to the saying of a pillar. The emperor said this because of his selfishness and partial belief, but it was criticized by others, how lucky is it?”

Li Zhang's expression became lighter as he spoke, and finally a self-deprecating smile floated up, reflecting the slowly cooling hesitation in his eyes, showing a kind of calm determination.

The more Sima Yi heard it, the more distressed he was, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became. He couldn't help but take a step forward and grabbed Li Zhang's hand and said: "You have been blocked by Gu, and you have blocked the mouths of people in the world. Gu, Gu wants to do it for you." You justified your name!"

Li Zhang pulled out his hand vigorously, shook his head equally resolutely, and said, "All the previous mistakes were made up for. Thanks to the protection of Wei Guogong, there is no regret. How dare Li Zhang take the credit?"

Seeing Li Zhang's stubbornness came up again, Sima Yi was about to go crazy, turned around and saw Jin Bai was dragging Mu Yan, and he didn't know what he was talking about, and suddenly asked Mu Yan, "Li Zhang is your apprentice, and now you have made such a great contribution. , General Mu has nothing to say?"

Mu Yan had already regretted it, but seeing that Li Zhang was still as kingless as before, his face darkened again.He still didn't feel that his act of abandoning his apprentice was a mistake, but he was quite proud of Li Zhang's subsequent actions, and he also loved and hated this apprentice.He didn't understand Li Zhang in the past, and now he can't figure out what Li Zhang is up to. He was very dissatisfied with Sima Yi's humility. When Sima Yi asked him, he immediately said with a dark face: "The emperor's heroic decisiveness is the only way to win this time." The key to this, Li Zhang is just doing his duty as a minister!"

Sima Yi was taken aback for a moment, staring sideways at Mu Yan's upright expression, and asked with a complicated expression: "General Mu really thinks so? Are you not afraid of chilling Li Zhang's heart?"

Mu Yan paused in his heart, looked at the indifferent Li Zhang, gritted his teeth again and said fiercely: "He was born as a royal guard, and he should solve the emperor's worries and problems. He is so hypocritical, he is not worthy of being my Mu Yan's apprentice!"

"Mu Yan!"

"Brother!"

Sima Yi and Jin Bai shouted in surprise, but Mu Yan turned his head away determinedly.Sima Yi hurriedly looked at Li Zhang, and seeing that his expression had dimmed again, he couldn't help scolding Mu Yan severely in his heart.

Zhiqing held Li Zhang's hand tightly in worry, and Li Zhang forced her to give her a comforting smile, then turned around and said to Sima Yi: "The emperor has defended him several times, and Li Zhang understands his concern, so let's just let go of all the past. Li Zhang has no intention of official career, nor does he like to stay in the capital, if the emperor really wants to reward, he will reward me with freedom, Li Zhang and Zhiqing are grateful!"

Sima Yi knew that it would be useless to say it again, he sighed and nodded his head in agreement: "Since you insist on this, I can't force it, but I don't feel at ease if I don't justify your name. Back then, Wei Guogong also retired and drifted away. Since you are his successor and your accomplishments are not inferior to his, I will make you the Duke of Wei after taking over his title!"

Li Zhang raised his head in surprise, and looked at Sima Yi in disbelief: "How can the emperor be like this!"

"Why can't it be like this? Everyone knows Wei Guogong, but Wei Guogong is only in the mountains and rivers! Gu's will has been decided. If you don't want Gu to break his promise again, then follow Gu this time!"

Li Zhang clenched his lips, Sima Yi was afraid that he would say decisive words again, so he quickly added: "It's just a vain prince, Gu also won't ask you to see him regularly, and he will never break his promise!"

After Sima Yi finished speaking, he watched Li Zhang's reaction very carefully, Li Zhang really slowed down, and looked back at Zhiqing inquiringly.Zhiqing looked at Sima Yi in embarrassment, and Sima Yi nodded sincerely.Zhiqing said softly to Li Zhang: "It's good for brother to make up his own mind, and Zhiqing will not regret following him."

Li Zhang finally let go of his tense expression, looked at Zhi Qing and smiled slowly: "To have my sister help each other, this life is enough!"

He turned to Sima Yi and said: "If this false name can make the emperor have no other thoughts, Li Zhang will obey."

Sima Yi looked at Li Zhang and Zhiqing with complicated emotions, seeing their sincere attachment and joy, his heart, which had long been no longer cold and hard, began to ache softly.He concealed the posture of a king, took out the imperial edict that had been written long ago, and carefully sealed it with the jade seal.Li Zhang's sharp eyes saw that the jade seal was missing a corner, so he frowned secretly.He only knew that Sima Yi became the emperor and still did not care about things, but he didn't know that this jade seal had saved his life and had been the most "heavy" hidden weapon in the world.

Mu Yan watched Sima Yi finish all these in dumbfounded, his heart became more and more confused, and he completely stayed there.

Sima Yi ordered the world, and Li Zhang won the Duke of Wei.But Li Zhang was like Liu Muyan back then, only seeing the award but no one was there.Everyone didn't know why, but also because of his disappearance, those voices who thought the reward was too high quickly faded away.In the Wei Dynasty, Liu Muyan served as the Duke of Wei twice, Liu Muyan has become a legend, but Li Zhang is in full bloom.While talking about it, people in the world are also emotional about its rough life experience, but no one dares to insult it lightly.

Li Zhang was unable to travel far because of his injury, so he followed Jin Bai's suggestion and lived with Zhiqing in the Xigu Residual Hospital of the Mangshan School.After Jin Bai and Zhiqing treated him carefully, they solemnly brought Jin Yi over.In the early summer of the fifth year of Jianping, Zheng Yiyan, who traveled abroad, came back. Hearing about Li Zhang's recent situation, he brought the foreign fruit "Dragon Blood Bead" to Mang Mountain, and Li Zhang began to gradually improve.

At that time, Jin Bai had already renovated the ruined courtyard in Xigu, Mangshan under various names, and Li Zhang and Zhiqing were officially married in autumn.Zheng Yiyan lived here for more than half a year, jokingly teasing Zhiqing about running on Jinyi every day, making the foster father and daughter laugh and cry, but calming down their always solemn mood.

After Li Zhang took Dragon Blood Beads, his hematemesis gradually healed, and his Qi and blood became more abundant day by day.Although Zheng Yiyan has never practiced martial arts, he has devoured many books on martial arts, and the lightness kung fu he taught is not weak.After inquiring about Li Zhang's method of luck, relying on his memory and medical theory, he instructed Li Zhang to slowly open up the meridians with minor injuries by himself, while the remaining ones with serious injuries still needed external force.

At the end of the spring of the sixth year of Jianping, Jin Bai spread widely all over the rivers and lakes, inviting martial arts masters to dredge Li Zhang's meridians.The secluded West Valley of Mang Mountain suddenly became lively, everyone wanted to see the demeanor of the Duke of Wei in the current dynasty, and some good-for-nothing set up a ring at the foot of Mang Mountain to screen the qualifications of those who entered the mountain.

At this time, Li Zhang was no longer fully on guard against the personnel and affairs around Sima Yi, and gradually began to believe in Sima Yi's transformation. During this year, Sima Yi devoted himself to government affairs and worked hard to reorganize people's livelihood, and started to build his own. The cavalry army signed a contract with Xianbei, the Tuoba tribe outside the customs, to exchange food for horses, and reset the customs to allow free trade for the people.

He did not go to see Li Zhang again as agreed, nor did he set up a guard in Mangshan.When Li Zhang married Zhiqing, he only sent a pair of jade vases and a pair of Ruyi in the name of old friends, as well as the Longyuan sword without all the gold and jade decorations.Li Zhang was silent for a long time before he took Longyuan from Ling Yuncong's hands. All the past events passed by suddenly and faded into clouds.

On April [-]th in the sixth year of Jianping, it was Guyu.Sima Yi and Ling Yuncong went out of the city in disguise, beat horses and headed straight to Mangshan Mountain.

The author has something to say:

I finally finished writing, and if no one reads it, I have to sprinkle a bouquet of flowers for myself~ Li Zhang is the projection of my own views on some life positions, and Sima Yi is a character who has continued many conventional concepts because of complaints.I didn't think about Li Zhang's final reversal at the beginning, so the second volume is a completely new creation.Because I always want to give the characters a good result when I write.

Compared with love, I am more devoted to friendship and family affection. I think the most important thing between people is respect, trust and keeping promises.So this is what the whole text really wants to express.

Thank you Wenxiu for supporting me all the way to the end.Thank you FF for raising many questions and omissions that I hadn't thought of.Sure enough, I am too subjective, so the text also bears too many imprints of personal preferences.

Finally, give yourself a compliment, I am also a person who has a beginning and an end!Haha~~
