[Comprehensive martial arts] Hundreds of no taboos

Old Li Tanhua is really not good.

The scientific examination is held every three years, and every Jinshi is a talent selected from ten thousand, and the top three are even selected one in ten thousand. Otherwise, the reputation of father and son in the past few years would not have spread so widely.

But I can understand Lao Li Tanhua's embarrassment. After all, the top three articles of Jinke have been posted for people to copy. Anyone can see that although the first two articles are considered excellent, they are not as good as The Tanhua article is streamlined and coquettish, and Li Shen's Tanhua position is really aggrieved.

It is said that on the day of the palace examination, the order of titles was arranged. Originally, the top three had already been determined. However, when the emperor met Li Shen, he found Li Shen familiar. He asked about his family background, and after asking, he learned that his father and brother were all prostitutes. He wanted to make a good story, so he ordered Li Shen to do Tanhua.

As a result, when the name seal was opened, Li Shen's article was at the top.

The emperor wanted to join in a good deed, so no one would tell him that Da Li Tanhua vomited blood that time, the old Li Tanhua. Li Tanhua.

Lao Li Tanhua vomited another mouthful of blood on the day he received the couplet, but this time it was much more serious than last time. The couplets were knocked on the gate of Li’s house by someone sent by the emperor. Old Li Tanhua, who had to go to the yamen every day, saw the couplets as soon as he went out, and he lay down in a few days. , At first it was just dizziness, then a coma, no water or rice.

Naturally, no one told the emperor about this matter. Those who had a good relationship with Lao Li Tanhua did not say a word, and those who had a bad relationship did not dare to offend the emperor on this matter. When the news reached the Lin residence, it was Li Tian who received it. Xin, it's time to go home and take care of my father's illness.

Everyone knows that it's a sickness, and it's like going back to see him for the last time.

Li Shen just hadn't been assigned an official yet, the Shangguan also raised his hand and let him go back with Li Tian.

I was a little worried. After all, Li Tian himself was a sick child. If his father died, he would collapse too. With Lin Shiyin's personality, it would probably take a long time to recover.

And in this world, will she really be able to find a husband like Li Tian again in the future?

As long as things are within my ability, it is not troublesome for me.

I found some time to talk to Mr. Lin.

I am going to Baoding for a trip.

Master Lin firmly opposed it at first. He was worried about my safety. After all, I was raised in a deep boudoir since I was a child. The last time I went to Beijing was with my family, but this time Li Tian and Li Shen have already set off for two days. It seems that I can’t catch up. He couldn't leave the capital. Although Baoding was close, there were many risks on the road. Even if he brought enough people, he still didn't feel at ease.

I showed him a freehand paperweight.

The long strip of pure copper paperweight in Mr. Lin's study was twisted into a spiral shape by me, then twisted in half, and smashed into pieces again.

Master Lin finally agreed with me to go to Baoding.

After I spent an incense stick of time knocking over the guards he had specially found, he also agreed to let me go alone.

I packed up some clothes, took some broken silver, and set off lightly.

Halfway through the first day of my journey, I met Li Tian and Li Shen who were said to have been away for two days.

After all, a four-legged horse can't outrun a two-legged me.

But I decided to leave them alone.

I took the map and went straight to Baoding until I reached the gate of Li Yuan, where the Li family lived for generations. It took me two days.

I knocked on Li Yuan's door with Master Lin's greeting card.

The reason why I am in such a hurry is because I want to see if Lao Li Tanhua can still be saved.

Lying alone in bed without water or rice, for most doctors, the oil lamp is almost exhausted, and one day is considered a day.

At this moment, there is already an official pigeon to pass the letter, and the speed is much faster than that of the horse. Baoding is relatively close to the capital, and the straight-line distance is more than 300 miles. The flying pigeon only needs to fly so far. It didn't take long to arrive in the capital.

I saw Mrs. Li with red eyes. She looked much more haggard than Mrs. Lin. I looked at her carefully for a while.

Very well, the Li family has four members, and all three are sick.

I followed Mrs. Li to visit the old Li Tanhua who was lying unconscious on the bed. He was also Li Wendao, the annotator of the annotated version of the Four Books and Five Classics that had tortured me for several years.

Li Tanhua, who was not in his fifties, was so thin that his bones were exposed. His eye sockets were sunken, his cheeks were sunken, and his complexion was sallow, but he still carried a bit of youthful elegance. His hair is gray, which shows that he usually worries a lot. , I already guessed his cause of disease by looking at his face, and after checking his pulse again, it really verified my guess.

Lao Li Tanhua has been stagnated in his heart for a long time, and he often rages and hurts his liver. He is also so angry that his liver qi surges up for a while, which leads to fainting, which is not a big deal.

But if he fainted again, he would boil himself to death.

I asked Mrs. Li, "What did the doctor say?"

Mrs. Li cried and wiped away her tears, and said: "It is said that anger is stagnant. When you wake up, you will be fine, but you can't wake up, acupuncture doesn't work, and medicine can't go in. It's terrible. Didn't kill me!"

I sighed, Mrs. Li was born with a heart disease, the kind that can’t be cured. She can’t be overjoyed or sad on weekdays. If Lao Li Tanhua hadn't made it through, she might really have gone with her.

I comforted Mrs. Li a few words, walked to Lao Li Tanhua's bedside, and pretended to feel his pulse again. I picked up a trace of internal energy with my fingertips, entered through his veins, and divided the heart into two. Up to the heart and brain, partly down to the liver.

After a few days, the pent-up death energy has faded away. The reason why Lao Li Tanhua can't wake up is probably because he subconsciously doesn't want to wake up.

Simply put, there is nothing to love.

I let go of his wrist, and said to Mrs. Li: "I don't know if there are any people in the city who Mr. Li can't look down on? Or who often make him angry."

Mrs. Li wiped away the tears that seemed to be shedding, and said: "There are... but there are many, and there are not many who can deal with him."

I thought for a while and said, "Madam please write a few posts, please let the person who can annoy Mr. Li the most on weekdays, the one who speaks the most, and who can make Mr. Li jump out of anger, come to the house to tell."

Mrs. Li didn't understand what I was going to do, so I comforted her, "It's like this now, it's better to treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor, Madam, don't worry, if my method doesn't work, there is a second plan, it's just the first one. The second plan will make Mr. Li suffer a bit."

Maybe it was my prudence that made Mrs. Li see hope. She finally stopped crying, went to wash her face, and really wrote six invitation cards. The top one looked familiar to me. I remembered that it was Li Shen's former teacher, Mr. Song Qi, the one who was so angry that Lao Li Tanhua resigned.

Six invitation cards, five people came, and one returned to his hometown two days ago. Fortunately, Mr. Song Qi, who is the most combative, came.

After I explained, the rest of the people still had some doubts and did not dare to fire easily, but Mr. Song Qi did not hesitate at all. With a flick of his clothes and sleeves, he sat on the head of Lao Li Tanhua's bed and said, "I heard The second young master was a high school student, and I also saw the couplet at Brother Li's gate, it really deserves to be written by the emperor himself."

The comatose old Li Tanhua showed no reaction on his face.

But I pressed his pulse, but I could feel his pulse jumping momentarily when Mr. Song Qi fired.

I gave Mr. Song Qi a wink and asked him to continue.

Mr. Song Qi stroked his beard, and said unceremoniously: "Do you know why the second son only got a third prize? Because Brother Li, a father, is only a little bit capable, and his roots are not good. It's just Tanhua, but I think it's really a blessing from the emperor that the two young masters can get Tanhua."

Old Li Tanhua frowned.

Mr. Song Qi turned a blind eye and said again: "If you want me to say, the Li family is really taking advantage of it. The number one scholar needs to have the ability to manage the world, and he is a role model for scholars in the world. Tanhua is different. It is enough for the writing to be passable. The most important thing is to be beautiful. , can win the favor of the emperor, isn't that what Brother Li was like back then?"

Lao Li Tanhua's heart pulse slowly jumped from a slow speed that was almost dead, and did not stop until it exceeded the speed of ordinary people's heart pulse.

Mr. Song Qi released the final blow slowly, "Brother Li is really enviable as the so-called son inherits his father's career. He has three Tanhuas in one family. In the future, the two young masters of your family will give birth to sons who will be more beautiful. Tanhua in this dynasty may be more beautiful." Let your Li family take care of it, and in future generations, it will be nice to mention that the Li family is a beautiful man."

Old Li Tanhua didn't even open his eyelids, but his brows were tightly frowned, obviously already reacting to external stimuli.

After Mr. Song Qi finished speaking, several other people who had been at loggerheads with Lao Li Tanhua also surrounded him. This one said that you, Li Tanhua, got the Tanhua position by virtue of your face, and the other said that the talents of your two young masters were blown out. , The couplet about the Son of Heaven is very well written.

Not long after, someone suddenly stopped and asked, "Did Li Tanhua talk just now?"

Others looked at each other in blank dismay, and someone said: "Where did you talk, I didn't hear it."

Someone hesitated and said, "Then shall we continue?"

The cynical voice suddenly sounded again, this time it was obviously much more lively than before when they couldn't let go, and there was another one who probably couldn't win Lao Li Tanhua for a long time, the more sarcasm the more energetic, his eyes were shining.

Under such a siege, the meaningless sounds that Lao Li Tanhua made from his throat were hardly noticeable.

But I found out right away.

Mr. Song Qi, who was sitting by the bed, also noticed it. He paused, and approached Lao Li Tanhua seriously. I thought he was going to say something to stimulate Lao Li Tanhua, but I didn't want Mr. Song Qi to hesitate for a while. Looking at Lao Li Tanhua's face... he took a sip.

Mr. Song Qi had never done such a thing in his whole life, and he immediately put down his sleeves to cover his mouth after poohing, looking like a gentleman.

However, the effect of this pooh was also outstanding, Lao Li Tanhua, who had been rolling his eyes desperately but couldn't open them, was so poohed that he suddenly opened his eyes.

The effect is comparable to cheating corpses.
