Chapter 15 The first step in supporting Han
"He is a sage who writes and speaks! I can't imagine that there are such people in the world? I can't wait to meet him, but it's a pity that Doctor Zhang is now living in seclusion, how can I find it? Liu Bei couldn't help but sigh.
The doctor laughed and said: "Haha, others don't know Zhang Ji's whereabouts, but Xiao Lao'er knows that when Zhang Ji was in Changsha, he once discussed medical skills with me, and I have also exchanged letters with him over the years." ”
Zhang Fei said impatiently: "Oh, this is all burning eyebrows, don't sell it, hurry up and tell me where he is." ”
Seeing Zhang Fei's urging, the doctor didn't dare to offend, so he hurriedly said: "Now Zhang Ji is living in seclusion in Jiaozhou and writing medical books. I will inform Uncle Liu of his address, and I am writing a letter of recommendation, and he will not refuse, and Uncle Huang can send someone to ask for a letter. ”
"Sir, please!" Liu Bei was busy personally scouting the doctor's pen and ink.
But after a while, the doctor wrote the address and the letter of recommendation, and handed it to Liu Bei, Liu Bei bowed to the doctor, and said: "Thank you, Mr. for your great kindness, I will never forget it, if the two miracle doctors can cure the dog's evil disease, I will be grateful in the next!" ”
After the doctor left, Zhang Fei stretched out his hand to Liu Bei to ask for a letter of recommendation: "Brother, give me the address of the letter, and I will go to Jiaozhou to invite the divine doctor." ”
"No, you have a reckless personality, don't invite a miracle doctor and offend him." Liu Bei shook his head again and again.
"Then I'll go!" Guan Yu stroked his long beard and said.
Liu Bei replied again: "You can't do it, you are the head of the Jingzhou generals, how can you leave without permission?" ”
Zhuge Liang pondered for a while and said: "Lord, after you took charge of Jingnan, many people came to take refuge, one of them is named Huo Jun, who is not only loyal and brave, but also cautious, you can send this person there!" ”
Liu Bei was overjoyed: "The person recommended by the military advisor must be right, the military advisor, you handed over the letter to Huo Jun, asked him to go to Jiaozhou, and asked Doctor Zhang to come over." ”
"No!" Zhuge Liang took the letter and went to Huo Jun to do something.
"The army is busy with affairs, you guys should go down too, I'll accompany Adou for a while!" Liu Bei dismissed Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Chen Zhi and others.
After a few people went down, Liu Bei sat on the edge of the bed, covered Liu Chan's hand in his palm, and said softly: "Adou, it's better." ”
"It still hurts!" Liu Chan closed his eyes, still screaming in pain.
Liu Chan secretly apologized to Liu Bei in his heart: "Father, father, I didn't mean to pretend to be sick to deceive you, but in fact, it was for the future of Shu Han." ”
Liu Shan crossed over to Liu Chan, and naturally he would not be as idle as Liu Chan in history.
Liu Chan had already set a lofty goal for himself in his heart, to help the Han Dynasty, eliminate Wei Wu, and unify the Three Kingdoms.
And Shu Han wants to eliminate Wei Wu, it is not hopeless, as long as Jingzhou is not lost, stop the battle of Xiangfan, and the defeat of the battle of Yiling, Shu Han still has a great chance of winning in the competition of the Three Kingdoms.
The battle of Xiangfan and the battle of Yiling are not difficult to save, after all, it is man-made.
However, the lack of talents is also one of the reasons why Shu Han is weak.
Died in battle, Liu Chan can find a way to remedy it, but the birth, old age, sickness and death of talents, Liu Chan is powerless, because life and death, sickness and death are the cycle of heaven.
The victory or defeat of the war can be reversed by manpower, and birth, old age, sickness and death are the cycle of heaven and cannot be reversed.
There are many talents who died young in Shu Han, such as Ma Chao, one of the five tiger generals, Huo Jun, who guarded Jiameng Pass with hundreds of people to resist Liu Zhang's 10,000-strong army attack for a year, and Fa Zheng, a military advisor who is good at scheming. and even Zhuge Liang, who became ill from hard work in the later period.
If these people could live a few more years, why did Shu Han decline and become the weakest of the three kingdoms?
Birth, old age, sickness and death are heavenly cycles, and it is indeed difficult to reverse, but they can find ways to increase their lifespan.
And if you want to save these talents who died young, the most important point is that the doctor, ordinary doctors can't do it, they must be miracle doctors like Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing.
Now that Mrs. Gan is seriously ill and her life is not long, Liu Chan came up with a way to pretend to be sick, hoping to bring Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing under his command.
First, he can save the life of his biological mother, Mrs. Gan, and secondly, the talents of Shu Han have also their lives guaranteed, how can they all live seventy or eighty, so it is not impossible to unify the Three Kingdoms.
It's just that Liu Bei is good at everything, but he doesn't take his wife seriously, women are like clothes, brothers are like siblings, in Liu Bei's view, women are just tools for giving birth to children, and they can marry without it.
Therefore, Mrs. Gan's illness Liu Bei only invited ordinary doctors to treat it, but it was ineffective, and Liu Bei did not take it to heart. He would not make a big deal for Mrs. Gan and go to find a miracle doctor like Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing.
So Liu Chan had no choice but to pretend to be sick and use his talent to make people think that he was infected with a bad disease.
And Liu Bei attaches great importance to Liu Chan, seeing him as a person who can inherit his career, and when he learned of Hua Tuo, Zhang Zhongjing had hope of curing Liu Chan, so he sent someone to find him.
In fact, even if the doctor just now didn't recommend Hua Tuo, Zhang Zhongjing, and Liu Chan, he would have found a way to let Liu Bei go to them. The doctor's initiative to recommend it also saved Liu Chan a lot of things.
Liu Bei asked Liu Chan about some of his illness again, comforted him, and then left. After leaving, he asked Deng to come and take care of Liu Chan.
Deng Shi, naturally Deng Ai's mother, last year's battle of Changbanpo, Deng Ai's mother and son also came back with Mrs. Mi. Liu Bei was grateful to Deng Ai's mother and son for saving their lives, and wanted to reward him heavily, but Deng's mother did not accept it.
Zhao Yun proposed that Mother Deng take care of Liu Chan and serve as the housekeeper of the Houfu, mainly responsible for the diet and living of the ladies of the Houfu.
Only then did Deng's mother agree to come down and live in Liu Bei's mansion to manage the affairs of the back house for Liu Bei. Mother Deng used to be from a big family, but these things were done in an orderly manner, which made Liu Bei very satisfied.
And Deng Ai is studious, Liu Bei thanked Deng Ai for saving Liu Chan's life, so he invited Jingzhou Daxian Yi to serve as Deng Ai's teacher.
In the troubled times, there was Liu Bei to protect them, so that their mother and son could live in peace, which could be regarded as a reward for the two.
Time flies, more than ten days have passed.
In the past ten days, Liu Chan still pretended to be sick every day, and because of pretending to be sick, he could only eat a few meals a day. The throat was also hoarse, and it was painful.
And Mrs. Gan's condition is getting worse and worse, and she is afraid that the deadline is approaching.
Liu Bei even asked people to prepare mourning clothes in case of emergency.
"Hey, the eldest lady vomited blood again today, I'm afraid it's ......"
"The eldest lady is so good to us, why doesn't God have long eyes and want to take her away?"
"Don't talk nonsense, the eldest lady will definitely be safe."
Liu Chan heard the whispers of the maids outside the door, and said secretly in his heart: "Mother, mother, you must hold up for a few more days, I have been pretending to be sick and miserable for the past ten days, you can't live up to my hard work." ”
