After the general fell ill

During the conversation, Fang probably understood what kind of person Su Ce was, so he was very sure about the other party's surrender, but...

"But General Su is seriously ill, and his physical condition is not optimistic. I beg Your Majesty to send an imperial physician to your mansion to consult General Su." Gu Yan then revealed the real purpose of entering the palace to meet the saint.

Xiao Zhuo was obviously prepared for this. Although he, like Gu Yan, had never heard of Su Ce's serious illness before, when the front-line soldiers sent back the information that Su Ce's 5000 people had disappeared to Chang'an, Li Yi and Wang Fang stepped forward respectively. Came to Xuanzheng Hall.

Compared to Wang Fang, who was well-learned and tried to persuade him by citing classics, Li Yi, who was naturally taciturn, knelt on the ground as soon as he saw him, and told him bluntly that Su Ce was suffering from a serious illness, and there was no time to delay, begging him to let him come forward. to find each other.

Xiao Zhuo's eyebrows twitched when he recalled that scene now. He had doubts in his heart, what if this was Su Ce's scheme, but then he dismissed the idea and agreed to let Li Yi go.

Now that he heard Gu Yan's words with his own ears, Xiao Zhuo said generously: "Liang Rang, please go and invite the Envoy Xue."

"Yes." The eunuch in charge, holding a whisk in his hand, bowed his head and replied, turned around and left.

As soon as the words fell, the three of them thanked Xiao Zhuo together: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Li Yi and Wang Fang realized Xiao Zhuo's importance after hearing about the official position of imperial physician, but Gu Yan knew that Xiao Zhuo really wanted to save Su Ce.

As early as the beginning of the Shiping period, most of Xue Yuanshi's students in most of the big hospitals were his students, so one can imagine the high qualifications.

The four of them chatted a few more words about Su Ce's life, and Gu Yan resigned directly after the arrival of Court Envoy Xue, leaving Xiao Zhuo, Li Yi, and Wang Fang to continue talking about the topic they had just interrupted.

Waiting for Gu Yan and Xue Yuan to arrive at the General's Mansion, it was past lunch time before they knew it.

Gu Yan led Xue Yuan envoy to Su Ce's room all the way. As soon as he entered the door, he saw that Su Ce was still asleep. Gu Yan called him softly twice. After finding that this could not wake Su Ce up, he had to gently push Su Ce. shoulders.

Su Ce heard Gu Yan calling himself. He was actually awake when Gu Yan walked into the room, but he couldn't open his heavy eyelids after struggling a few times. In the end, he still wanted to see Gu Yan's consciousness occupying the upper peak.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Gu Yan with a worried face. Su Ce wanted to smile reassuringly, but he didn't want Gu Yan to feel even more heartbroken seeing this scene.

In his memory, the young man who talked with him about the world's general situation was full of energy, and now he was lying pale and weak on the bed. This should not be his original appearance, he should be chic and easy.

He should not be imprisoned on the bed because of weakness, he should be on a cruise ship on the Qingjiang River, or galloping in the vast desert or grassland.

Gu Yan didn't dare to think about it any further. After helping Su Ce adjust a comfortable position, he turned sideways and gave way to Court Envoy Xue.

Envoy Xue was older than Cao Shiren, and quite similar in age to the imperial physician who often checked Su Ce's pulse in Guangyang, Yan State.

Xueyuan envoy's pulse diagnosis process was also similar to that of the imperial physician who returned from old age. After a series of diagnoses, he got the same result as Cao Shiren.

After Court Envoy Xue went back to report to the emperor, Gu Yan held the prescription written by Cao Shiren in one hand and the prescription left by Court Envoy Xue just now in the other. After comparing the two, he found that the two pieces of paper were not bad word for word, and then He kept one of the prescriptions in his hand, and pressed the other on the desk with the Four Treasures of the Study.

"What would you like to eat, General?" There was a sick person at home, so Gu Yan didn't plan to strictly observe the meal time. Anyway, he was relatively free at the moment, and it was more than enough to take care of Su Ce.

"I want soup." Su Ce said hoarsely.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yan hurriedly poured him a glass of water to make sure that Su Ce could hold it steady before walking out of the room, and ordered the soldiers to go to a store that He Liang was thinking about to pack a meal. The point is to drink the soup while it is hot, so I reminded him Come back early.

Su Ce's eyes wandered endlessly on the pattern of the curtain. He thought that Gu Yan would come back soon, but he heard that Gu Yan seemed to be caught by something and was walking towards the gate.

Maybe it was his colleagues who came to look for him, Su Ce thought wildly.

When Li Yi came in in a pale uniform and a hair crown made according to the Qin Dynasty, Su Ce's eyes widened in surprise, and he tried to sit up straight.

However, his stubborn body refused to listen to the orders of his brain, and in the end Gu Yan helped him move his back up so that he was at eye level with Li Yi.

Su Ce has been used to being a superior over the years. He is willing to show himself to Gu Yan, but it doesn't mean that he is willing to expose his fragility in front of his former subordinates.

He is used to showing his invincible side, seeing Li Yi now, he was somewhat speechless.

The image of Su Ce being bedridden due to illness has already appeared in Li Yi's mind many times, and now he has witnessed with his own eyes that the general he loyally followed is as weak as a cloud of smoke.

Li Yi's eyes were dull, and his upper and lower lips touched lightly, as if he didn't know how to speak. In the end, Su Ce asked, "Ziyan, how does His Majesty arrange for you?"

"I will set off for Bingzhou in a few days." Li Wei replied quickly, paused, and then said: "Wang Cheng...Wang Gongcheng was sent to appease Youzhou."

Youzhou was originally a place name divided by the Jin Dynasty, and it was the main former land of Yan State. Guangyang, the capital of Yan, is the seat of Youzhou today.

Xiao Zhuo sent Wang Fang to Youzhou and Li Yi to Bingzhou.Su Ce's eyes flickered, this emperor's mind really shouldn't be underestimated.

Gu Yan was not surprised, he had been with Xiao Zhuo for nine years.Most of the generals Xiao Zhuo brought out under his command to do meritorious service chose to be transferred away from his side, and he was very happy to see some generals who didn't like him that much.

Although Xiao Zhuo balances his power in the court, and sometimes does not give rewards, but the complete Tiger Talisman is in his hands from the beginning to the end, Xiao Zhuo never thought of taking it back.

Now that Su Ce is allowed to stay in his mansion, apart from Su Ce's serious illness and being unable to move, the transfer of former officials of the Yan Kingdom, such as Li Yi and Wang Fang, may also be one of the reasons.

Su Ce warned, "Be careful all the way."

Li Yi's eyes turned red when he heard the words, he could no longer pretend to be calm, and he didn't know when he would return to Bingzhou.

This might be the last time he and Su Ce met. Thinking of this, Li Yi solemnly saluted Su Ce and said, "General, take care."

Su Ce nodded and said, "Ziyan, General Gu's new house has nothing, so I won't do it for you."

After finishing speaking, he motioned Gu Yan to pass the water glass to himself, and said with a relaxed smile: "Substitute water for wine, and the journey will be smooth."

Seeing this, Li Yi twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, and saluted Su Ce before getting up and leaving.

After walking out of the gate of Gu's mansion, Li Yi got on his horse and walked towards the crowd. Li Yi was satisfied that the sloppy farewell did not happen on the battlefield.

If there is a day when he can be transferred back to Chang'an, I hope that the old man is still there and everything remains the same.

Gu Yan heard that Su Ce addressed Li Yi with words, and thought that although he and Su Ce met very early, they even guessed their real names by themselves, and now they are still calling each other "General".

Su Ce noticed Gu Yan's slightly tangled expression, looked at himself a few times and then pretended not to care, and looked away, obviously wanting to say something but not knowing whether to say it or not.

It reminded him of a thin boy who hesitated for a long time in front of him when recruiting soldiers and horses in the early years, just wanting to tell him that there is a wild vegetable to satisfy his hunger. He couldn't help being a little funny.

Seeing that Gu Yan was about to speak, he was somewhat similar to that child.

Su Ce put down the water glass lightly, and deliberately asked, "General Gu, what's wrong with you?"

Gu Yan's heart broke, and he said bluntly: "My name is Yan, and my name is Tingyuan. I don't know how to call the general?"

Su Ce chuckled. He thought Gu Yan was going to say something important, but he didn't want to just ask for his name.

Immediately, Su Ce's gaze became a little gloomy. He had just watched Li Yi go, but now he recalled his first meeting with Gu Yan.

Perhaps this is the true honesty between the two.

"The one-character name is Ce, and the word is An Lan. Ting Yuan can call me An Lan." As soon as Su Ce finished speaking, Gu Yan blurted out "An Lan". The atmosphere was awkward for a moment, and then the two looked at each other and smiled again.

They had known each other for a long time, yet it seemed as if they had just met for the first time.

10. Table word

To stabilize the waves, to control the world.

In the sixth year of Shiping, when Gu Yan was granted the title of Marquis Ding for recovering Shuozhou, Su Ce kept paying attention to this person just because of the word "Yan", so naturally he also knew about Gu Yan's life.

The Xiao family in Zezhou is not a famous family like the Su family in Yinzhou in the past. Although the family has been officials for three generations, their roots are not deep.

Therefore, when Xiao Jiang occupied the northwest and proclaimed himself emperor, she won over the local wealthy families, while Xiao Zhuo devoted himself to promoting the poor, and appointed people on their merits, not limited to their backgrounds.

Chen Su, the prime minister of the dynasty, was born in a poor family. When he came to join Xiao Zhuo, he was appreciated for his policy theory, and he has made great progress all the way to this day.

So is Gu Yan.

The head of civil and military affairs in the Qin Dynasty was born in a poor family, and he was able to meet the master of the Ming Dynasty, and he never blocked his achievements because of his status and class.

Su Ce has heard about this for a long time, whether it is Gu Yan and Xiao Zhuo's friendship between monarchs and ministers, or Gu Yan's heroic deeds in guarding the frontier, he has inquired clearly.

Like his instinct to fight and win on the battlefield, Gu Yan is Yang Yan, he believes so for no reason.

Su Ce leaned on the soft pillow, said with a light smile, "I don't know who took Ting Yuan's characters?"

"It's His Majesty's teacher—Mr. Zhou." Sitting beside Su Ce's bed, Gu Yan recalled: "When His Majesty brought me back to Chang'an, he asked Mr. Zhou who was at home to teach me how to read and write. Mr. Zhou was a Jin The emperor's teacher, was invited by the late emperor to teach His Majesty after resigning from office.

Mr. is a humorous old man, he is still clear-sighted in his sixtieth year, I
