After the general fell ill

Che asked.

Cao Shiren repeatedly placed Su Ce's wrist to check his pulse. After thinking for a while, he asked Su Ce a few more related questions. Finally, he stroked his beard and said to Gu Yan: "General, don't worry, the root of this disease lies in resting. I think that coughing up blood rarely occurs after General Su’s medication, and after consolidating, it can be supplemented with medicinal baths, and it is absolutely forbidden to work hard and be overjoyed and sad.”

Su Ce nodded and said, "Thank you sir."

Gu Yan asked: "How long will it take?"

Cao Shiren seemed to have expected this question long ago, and while writing the prescription, he replied unhurriedly: "More than half a year."

With Cao Shiren's medical skills, he would give a relatively close date, more than half a year, maybe three to five years.

Gu Yan did not continue to question as Cao Shiren thought. After sending Cao Shiren away, he returned to the house and sat next to Su Ce, and asked in a negotiating tone: "An Lan, the weather is getting warmer these days. Go out and walk around."

"Okay." After getting Su Ce's affirmative answer, Gu Yan hugged the other party, buried his head in Su Ce's neck and shoulders, and just hugged him quietly without moving.

A light scent of incense wafted from Gu Yan's skirt, Su Ce hugged him lightly, resting his chin on top of Gu Yan's head, silent.

So, the envoy Xue, who was specially instructed by the Holy Majesty and the General the day before to come for consultation earlier today, followed Tan Qiu into the door, and saw a secret picture of hugging and snuggling in the morning.

Compared with Xueyuan envoy who was stunned in place, Tan Qiu was not very surprised. It is not uncommon for men to make do with men in the army, not to mention that there are precedents for male queens in the previous dynasty. tolerant.

This picture is more like confirming Tan Qiu's thoughts. The master and General Su really have a deep relationship.

"Cough!" Court Envoy Xue still had a lot of experience and was well-informed. He just wanted to make the two young people pay attention to the atmosphere.

As early as when Tan Qiu led the envoy Xue into the door, the two had already noticed it, but Gu Yan had to wait for the envoy Xue to remind him before getting up reluctantly. eyes, which made Gu Yan a little baffled.

Xue Yuan envoy looked, heard, asked, and cut it down. What he said was much more refined than Cao Shiren, but the meaning was the same. He also left behind the second prescription and the formula for the medicinal bath.

After sending away Xueyuan Envoy, before Gu Yan had time to compare the prescriptions left by the two doctors, he saw Cao Shiren hurried back again. The old man was very young, but his legs and feet were very agile.

Seeing Cao Shiren shaking his clothes and stepping over the threshold, Gu Yan asked, "Mr. Cao, why are you back again?"

Cao Shiren ignored him for a while, took a pen and dipped it in ink, took one of the prescriptions casually, picked up the pen and filled up the medicine next to it.

"I'm getting older, but luckily I remembered it again." After saying that, he handed the prescription to Gu Yan.

After Gu Yan took it, he immediately frowned and said, "This..."

"how?"

"Mr. Cao, you took the wrong prescription." Gu Yan laughed.

Cao Shiren took a closer look and found out that he had written on the prescription left by Xue Yuan envoy in a hurry, and after carefully reading Xue Yuan envoy's prescription word by word, he asked Gu Yan, "This is the medicine left by Xue Yuan envoy. down?"

Just as Gu Yan nodded, he heard a loud shout from the courtyard.

"Junior Brother, don't come here without any harm."

Gu Yan and Su Ce looked at each other, and they both found curiosity in their eyes.

Hearing this, Cao Shiren put down the prescription and went outside, only to see Court Envoy Xue following behind Tan Qiu.

There are two elderly people who are over half a century old, one is over sixty years old, and the other is an octogenarian, but they are both hale and hearty.

"Senior brother, how are you doing?" Cao Shiren approached and observed this old friend who hadn't seen him for decades. At that time, his black hair changed to gray, and he met again by accident.

"Alright." Envoy Xue changed his usual uprightness and rigor, and said with a smile, "Let's go! Don't disturb the general and General Su, let's talk while walking."

Seeing the reunited two old friends leaving the mansion talking and laughing, Gu Yan and Su Ce looked at each other, probably infected by the friendship between the old people, they both chuckled.

20. Temple

Maybe this time, he could meet a monk who directly predicted his death.

In late spring and March, the vegetation in Chang'an City is luxuriant.

At the hour of Chen, a carriage drove out of Gu's mansion.

At this time, most of the shops in the market have already opened, and with the thin mist in the morning, there are faint sounds of people's busyness.

Su Ce lifted the curtain of the carriage curiously, and looked at the shops and workshops in Chang'an City.I haven't seen you for seven years. I don't know what Chang'an City looks like today.

"The feeling has changed, but it doesn't seem to have changed." Su Ce muttered.

"That antique shop is newly opened." Gu Yan pointed at the shop that had been left behind by the carriage.

Su Ce glanced at Gu Yan hesitantly, and thought, "The name of the sign looks familiar, Ting Yuan, do you remember it correctly?"

Unexpectedly, Gu Yan succeeded in making a joke and laughed, and finally said: "An Lan, you have a good memory. It is not wrong to say that this antique shop is newly opened, but it just moved from the south of the city to the west of the city."

Childish, Su Ce cursed in his heart.

"It looks like a new one, but it hasn't changed." Su Ce lowered the curtain and sighed softly.

Seeing that Su Ce stopped talking, Gu Yan was afraid that he would think of some sad thoughts again, adding another reason to Gu Yan's thought of seeking death, and then thinking about the advice of the two doctors, he said: "Speaking of which, Mr. Cao and Xue The envoy is also an old friend."

Seeing that Su Ce turned his head, Gu Yan continued: "Mr. Cao and the envoy of Xueyuan came from the same school, and they both worshiped under the name of the former owner of the Yaowang Valley, and they were called brothers and sisters. The connections in the Yaowang Valley have withered for nearly a hundred years, so the disciples Most of them hide from the world, but Mr. Cao and Xueyuan envoy are different. They left Yaowang Valley on the day they left the mountain, but they parted ways after going down the mountain. Mr. Cao traveled to the world as a doctor, while Xueyuan envoy took in disciples to preach."

After hearing this, Su Ce sighed and said, "Hanging the pot to save the world, preaching and teaching, it seems that Mr. Cao and Envoy Xue have their own persistence and obsession."

Gu Yan nodded in agreement, and said with a light smile, "I don't want the two of you to meet again decades later, but it's because of the diagnosis and treatment of the same patient."

The patient he was talking about coughed a few times in a pretentious manner. Gu Yan was so frightened that he quickly sat up straight, patted Su Ce's back lightly, and said worriedly, "An Lan, are you feeling better?"

Seeing that Gu Yan had his whole heart in his throat, Su Ce couldn't think of teasing him anymore, so he smiled and said, "I'm teasing you."

Gu Yan quietly breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the disease does not occur, everything is easy to talk about.

The two chatted a few more words about the scene in Chang'an City. An hour later, the carriage arrived at their today's destination - Lingshan.

Just at the foot of Lingshan Mountain, misty mountain mist can still be seen lingering in it, and it is peaceful and quiet.

Gu Yan waved off the soldiers who wanted to follow, and went up to Lingshan with Su Ce.

Lingshan is located in the southwest corner of Chang'an City, and its scenery is no different from other mountains surrounding Chang'an City. The reason for choosing this mountain is that the north peak of Lingshan is located at Ling'an Temple, while the east peak has a Baiyun Temple.Including Buddhism and Taoism at the same time, Lingshan is nothing short of wonderful.

It just so happened that the two of them talked about the Taoist temple a few days ago. Today, they went to the temple and Taoist temple together.

In view of Su Ce's poor health, the two slowly walked up the stone steps step by step, with a relaxed movement.

The sun in late spring was not too hot, and the breeze was warm. Su Ce listened to the chirping birds in his ears. Although his body was a little tired, his heart seemed to be led back to nature by these birds, relaxed and at ease.

The first group of faithful men and women who came to worship on the mountain were descending the mountain at this time, and there were only a few of them sparsely.

I don't think it was among these few people that I met Gu Yan's acquaintance.

I saw a man in a blue uniform and a jade crown holding a beautiful woman in a lotus-colored skirt. Su Ce looked up—the man's eyes were gentle, and the woman's smile was sweet.

It's really a talented man and a beautiful woman.

Little did he know that the man who was being sized up by Su Ce was also observing him at this time.

This handsome young man is dressed in a water-blue outer robe lined with a tea-white inner garment, with jade hairpins in his hair, and a smile on his face. Compared with Gu Yan who is standing beside him in black, he is not sure how much brighter he is. .

What a pair of Bi people, his vision is really vicious.

"General, why do you have time to come to Ling'an Temple today?" He Liang asked after saluting.

"Come out for a walk, are you accompanying Madam Ling?" Gu Yan said casually.

He Liang said helplessly: "The old man believes in Buddhism, so why don't you come here to ask for blessings?" Then he took Mrs. He's hand and introduced them to the two, "This is my wife."

Gu Yan said politely, "This is General Su Ce."

After the four saluted each other, He Liang and his wife were not in a hurry to go down the mountain, and accompanied them back to Ling'an Temple.

"When the first emperor was there, he originally wanted to repair Ling'an Temple. When the emperor ascended the throne, the money was allocated to the Ministry of Rites." He Liang held Mrs. He's arm and recalled: "Ling'an Temple is still exactly the same as it was in my childhood memory."

Mrs. He: "Are people all the same?"

Gu Yan: "Ministry of Rites?"

Only Su Ce listened attentively and did not ask any questions. He watched He Liang helplessly smile at Mrs. He with amused expression, and just turned his head to see Gu Yan looking at him with a mocking expression.

After careful consideration, He Liang decided to answer his wife's question first: "Naturally, the abbot of Ling'an Temple is Master Hongjing."

Then he turned his head and said to Gu Yan: "This is not clear. After the Holy Majesty ascended the throne, he stopped all the projects prepared by the late emperor. A few days ago, I met Prime Minister Chen. I saw him walking in a hurry. I heard that he might be planning to Re-open the imperial examination."

"I see." Gu Yan nodded.

The four of them casually chatted about a few more topics, and before they knew it, Ling'an Temple was in front of them.

"We won't go in, we'll see Baiyun later." After He Liang and Mrs. He left, Gu Yan and Su Ce
