Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Jiang Youchen did not dare to delay, so he mounted his horse and followed the palace officials to the Royal Garden.

Li Ling was waiting in the hall. He saw Jiang Youchen from a distance through the open door of the hall. He got up, walked out of the hall and greeted him.

Jiang Youchen originally thought that the emperor called him here late at night because he must have important matters to discuss. His steps were already very fast. When he reached the front of the palace, he saw the emperor personally coming out to greet him. Jiang Youchen did not dare to slack off even more, and there was almost wind at his feet. General came to the front.

Li Ling did not wait for Jiang Youchen to greet him, but greeted him: "It's really hard for you to come here at this time, please come in quickly."

Jiang Youchen glanced at Li Ling and saw that his face was relaxed and he didn't look like he was in a hurry. He entered the hall suspiciously, raised his hands and asked, "Your Majesty summoned me, but what happened?"

"It's nothing important." Li Ling greeted Jiang Youchen and said, "Ah Chen, please sit down first." Then he ordered Li Dequan: "Serve Ah Chen tea."

Jiang Youchen didn't know what kind of medicine Li Ling was selling in his gourd, but judging from his attentive appearance, he must have something to entrust him with.

 What can the emperor do to entrust him with anything?

Jiang Youchen's mind was full of suspicion, and he couldn't figure it out for a while.

Li Ling looked at Jiang Youchen, with light in his eyes, and said, "Achen, guess who I invited to treat the queen?"

Jiang Youchen finally understood when he heard this.

It can be seen that the reason why the emperor was so anxious to announce his arrival was because of his cousin's illness.

Jiang Youchen's eyes moved and he replied: "But have you found Dr. Zhang from Chaozhou?"

Li Ling laughed loudly: "Achen, you are right. I ordered people to search for a long time and finally invited the old gentleman."

Jiang Youchen was naturally concerned about Jing Shu's illness. He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this and replied: "That miracle doctor can rejuvenate you. With him here, your mother's illness will be worry-free."

"Hey! It's just that this old gentleman has been traveling abroad all year round. I heard that his whereabouts have been even more elusive in the past few years. Your Majesty must have gone through a lot of trouble to find him."

"That's not worth mentioning." Li Ling waved his hand and sighed slightly: "Oh! It's just that, Ah Chen, you also know this old gentleman's temper."

Li Ling frowned slightly: "I really can't communicate with him."

Jiang Youchen couldn't understand Li Ling's intention for a moment. He raised his eyes and looked at Li Ling with doubts on his face, guessing: "But isn't the old gentleman willing to do his best for the empress?"

Li Ling replied: "That's not the case."

“It’s just that Shu’er’s illness is so serious. This old gentleman has not diagnosed the root cause of the disease yet and is studying it diligently.”

As he said that, he looked at Jiang Youchen, with a gentle smile on his face, and said: "Ah Chen, that old gentleman has always been very fond of you. I would like to trouble you to stay here for a while and communicate more with that old gentleman. one time."

Jiang Youchen finally understood Li Ling's intention.

Naturally, he was also concerned about Jingshu's condition, but Jiang Youchen knew that Li Ling was actually concerned about his love for Jingshu in the past. Therefore, Jiang Youchen had little contact with Jingshu since he entered Beijing. Since Li Ling ascended the throne, Jiang Youchen has been even more concerned about it. Scruples.

Now, Li Ling actually asked him to live in the villa where Jing Shu was recuperating, which made Jiang Youchen have to think more.

Jiang Youchen smiled bitterly and replied slowly: "Since the old gentleman promised to treat your mother's illness, he will naturally do his best. The affairs in the yamen are complicated this year, and I'm afraid I don't have the leisure to stay here any longer."

Li Ling waved his hand and said, "Leave those things to the people below for now." Jiang Youchen hesitated: "I'm afraid this is not appropriate."

Li Ling saw Jiang Youchen's scruples. He walked forward slowly, sat down beside him, and said sincerely: "Achen, I'm really worried. Don't think too much about it. The old gentleman likes to talk to you. You just Just go over and talk to him about Shu'er's illness during his free time, and then tell me what the old gentleman said."

As the saying goes, caring leads to chaos. Although Li Ling knew that the miracle doctor would do his best, he always wanted to know the situation about his wife's condition. The old man refused to say anything to him. This made Li Ling, who had always been calm, feel like Like a cat scratching.

Li Ling said it sincerely, so Jiang Youchen couldn't make excuses anymore, so he said, "I'll just go and give it a try."

Li Ling saw Jiang Youchen's promise and hurriedly ordered Li Dequan: "Go quickly and prepare a palace for Jiang Shangshu to live in."

Jiang Youchen said hurriedly: "It's too late now, and I can't disturb the old gentleman. I'll just come over tomorrow after I've dealt with the important affairs of the Yamen."

"I will let others take care of the matters in the yamen tomorrow." After saying that, he pressed Jiang Youchen's hand and said, "According to my observation, the old gentleman drinks a cup of tea first every morning when he gets up. You stay here for the time being, and you can go there when he has tea tomorrow morning."

"He likes to talk to you. You must help me find out how Shu'er's condition is."

Li Ling is so urgent, what else can Jiang Youchen say.

 He nodded and replied: "That's good, I will try my best to live up to your majesty's trust."

Li Ling ordered Li Dequan to personally send Jiang Youchen to the palace. Jiang Youchen entered the palace and wrote a letter to his wife himself.

He was summoned by the emperor in the middle of the night and could not go back. He had to give an explanation to his wife.

Jiang Youchen thought about it for a while, but didn't know how to put it down, so he simply told the truth and explained the emperor's seemingly absurd entrustment to his wife in detail in the letter, and then ordered the palace officials to send it back to the palace.

The next day, when the sky was slightly dark, Jiang Youchen got up, washed himself carefully, put on a set of plain clothes, and was led to the palace where the miracle doctor stayed.

Li Ling was very observant. When the miracle doctor woke up, he would drink tea first. This was his only free time in the day.

The old man was sitting in the hall enjoying tea by the window. When he heard his disciple Chunni come in and say that someone was coming to see him, the old man thought it was Li Ling who was disturbing her again. He immediately darkened his face and said displeasedly: "But it's that black man again. Face?"

Chunni reacted for a long time before she realized that the master was talking about the emperor. She quickly replied: "Master, he is not the emperor, but Jiang Sanlang from our Jiangfu in Chaozhou, who is also known as the 'Jade Face Lang'. Do you still remember?" "

 Jade Face Lang?

The old gentleman frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly remembered, a smile appeared on his face and said: "Oh, I remember, I heard that this jade-faced man has gone to Beijing to become an official. He must have heard that I am here, so he Came to visit.”

As he spoke, he hurriedly called his disciple: "Please come in quickly."

Chuni laughed and couldn't help but ask her master: "Master, the saint is respectful and respectful in front of you. Why don't you like it?"

When the old man heard his disciple mention Li Ling, the smile on his face suddenly faded, and he said solemnly: "The emperor can stand up for my wife's illness. I am really touched as a teacher, but the emperor's face is too dark, and I can't help but look at it." Heartbroken."

 “Don’t you know that my teacher doesn’t like people who are uptight like that?”

The old man's so-called "dark face" does not mean that Li Ling's complexion is dark, but that he has a cold and dignified complexion. Therefore, he is not liked by the old man.

 Between people, it’s all about eye contact, there’s nothing you can do about it.

Hearing this, Chuni said with a smile: "This Jiang Sanlang is gentle and elegant. Since the master likes him, the disciple will invite him in now."
