The good times didn't last long, Yuwen Yu finally fell ill and couldn't afford it. All medicines were ineffective, and the imperial physician was helpless. Yuwen Yu cried like a child. He pulled his first wife, Queen Yang, and cried: I don't listen to your advice, it's too much to regret! Dugu Mingjing cried very sadly, she really loved him.

On this day, Dugu Xin specially invited the miracle doctor Xu Zhizang to treat him. Yuwen Yu was only 22 years old. Although he was not cured of a serious illness, it was because he had not found a good doctor who prescribed the right medicine. With a good doctor, the medicine would naturally be cured. If he didn't help, it would not be a problem to live for more than ten or twenty years. Dugu Xin knew that he would still work under this son-in-law for 10 or 20 years.

Although Yuwen Yu pardoned Dugu Mingjing's sin a few days ago, his vigilance towards Dugu Xin has not disappeared. Now, when Yuwen Yu is trapped in illness, Dugu Xin will not miss the opportunity to invite Xu Zhizang. If Xu Zhizang's wonderful hand returns to his youth, Yuwen Yu will naturally be grateful to him, the father-in-law, and his past grudges will be wiped out.

Although Xu Zhizang, the general of the Cavalry, was extremely powerful, he was still a gentle doctor and a Taoist priest with white hair and a young face.

He stood in front of the imperial bed, staring at Yuwen Yu's yellow face, and his brows gradually frowned. After a while, he leaned over and put his ear on Yuwen Yu's chest and listened for half an hour before he went to press his pulse.

He pressed his pulse like an old monk. He pressed his left hand for half an hour and his right hand for half an hour. His face was calm and his eyes slightly closed, and he could not see his joy, anger, sorrow and happiness. After taking the pulse, although his hand left the patient, he still closed his eyes and pondered, with sweat beads on his head. Then he knelt on the ground, knocked three times at the imperial bed, and quietly withdrew.

Dugu Mingjing and Dugu Jialuo exchanged their expressions and followed them out, but there was no figure of Xu Zhizang in the bedroom.

"Why didn't you prescribe here?" Dugu Mingjing said.

"Maybe..." Dugu Jialuo hesitated, "He went to the Imperial Hospital, prescribed the prescription, explained the prescription, and decoction of medicine..."

The two went straight to the Imperial Hospital again, and their thoughts were the same. They had to ask Xu Zhizang: How is Yuwen Yu's illness? Yuwen Yu's safety is not only related to the good or bad of the country, but also directly related to the honor and disgrace of the Dugu family!

But the Imperial Hospital did not see Xu Zhizang, so they turned back to Jianzhang Palace and thought that they must have gone to the thatched cottage. They had also looked for Xu Zhizang, but they did not see Xu Zhizang.

Dugu Mingjing and Dugu Jialuo looked at each other.

"Did you rush home to make medicine?" Dugu Mingjing said.

"Yes, he can't trust the medicine stored in the Imperial Hospital..."

The two immediately drove to the General's Mansion of the Cavalry.

But Xu Zhizang was busy fetching water by the well, lifting the water into the courtyard to water the trees. The tree was actually dead, and there was no green leaf on the branches...

The two were stunned: Xu Zhizang! What a big deal about the emperor's illness. After you saw the disease, you didn't prescribe it, but ran home to water the trees, and it was watering the dead trees! You were promoted to General of the Cavalry because of your medical skills. This honor is unprecedented. What you are doing now is no different from a madman...

Dugu Jialuo snorted dissatisfiedly.

Xu Zhizang seemed to have realized that a distinguished guest was here at this moment. He put down the wooden barrel, wiped his sweat with his sleeves, and smiled apologetically.

Dugu Mingjing walked towards the dead tree, looked at it for a while, and said, "This is a pear tree? It must not be an ordinary pear tree, its fruit must be a treasure?"

Xu Zhizang seemed to have no idea Dugu Mingjing's sarcasm, and replied with a smile: "That's right."

Only then did he call Shutong to make tea.

He did not welcome the guests to the hall, but asked the book boy to move the coffee table to the corridor outside the door to have tea. This was extremely rude to the two nobles. Dugu Jialuo was already angry, and Dugu Mingjing laughed it off.

The two of them drank strong green tea as if they were drinking medicine.

Xu Zhizang seemed to have drunk jade liquid and nectar.

At this time, tea drinking was only popular in the south of the Yangtze River, and the northern country had not yet formed a trend. Xu Zhizang was an old minister from the Liang Dynasty. His accumulated habits were difficult to change, so he treated guests with tea.

Xu Zhizang couldn't help but say, "Mr. Yao, you didn't prescribe the Heavenly Lord, but asked me to wait for the medicine!"

Xu Zhizang seemed to be unknown and said to himself: "My big pear tree is a treasure tree, which is a benefit for me..."

His words were interrupted by the new guest.

The person who came was Li Delin. He heard that Xu Zhizang was treating Yuwen Yu and came to learn about the condition.

After arranging Li Delin to take his seat, Xu Zhizang continued: "For many years, the yield is more than several times higher than usual. The fruit is sweet, fragrant and crispy, and there are many plans..."

"So you can't bear to let it go. Even though you die, you are still pouring water. I want to revive it?" Dugu Jialuo said this, and in his heart he called him a lunatic.

"Yes, yes! I've been watering for more than ten days..."

Li Delin walked over, circled the tree, came back with a smile, and said to Xu Zhizang: "This tree has leaves falling and branches withered, and the bark on the trunk has also peeled off, and it is so dead..."

Yao said: "But I can't bear to leave it, I always want to come back to life!"

Li said: "You should study the cause of its death and why it died!"

"This is not necessary to study, and the cause of death is understandable," said Xu Zhizang. "If any tree blooms desperately, it will be dead, and it will definitely die! You may as well recall what you have seen in your life and confirm that is it like this?"

Dugu Jialuo became more annoyed as he listened, and said annoyed: "Mr. Yao, the most urgent task is to treat the Lord's illness..."

Dugu Mingjing said, "Gala, don't interrupt him."

Xu Zhizang continued: "In the past few years, the total number of flowers and fruits that my pear tree blossomed in is no less than the fruits that other villages have produced in decades..."

At this time, Shutong had cooked new tea. Xu Zhizang got up and poured tea for the guests, and then he was:

"This tea is bitter and then sweet, but the sugar is sweet and then astringent." He returned to the original topic, "I think God has limited abilities to all living things. If the energy is exhausted, he will surely die!"

Xu Zhizang won’t say anything anymore.

Everyone thought silently.

"That's not necessarily!" Dugu Jialuo retorted, "As long as you water it, you will grow more leaves, bloom more, and bear more fruit!"

Xu Zhizang replied with a smile: "Absorption is also limited. If you pour too much, you will not only not absorb it, but will harm it. The limited ability is due to the limited absorption."

Li Delin looked at the pear tree in the courtyard and said, "This tree died after quenching, which seems to be a premature death; but in terms of its blooming, the total amount of fruiting can be considered as having enjoyed all my life."

Xu Zhizang nodded repeatedly: "That's right! That's right!"

Dugu Jialuo retorted with anger: "You know that it died in Tiannian and continues to water and rescue him. Not only is it stupid, but it is simply against the will of heaven!"

Xu Zhizang was even more happy: "What you said is very true! But here is a doctor, saving lives and helping the wounded is a natural duty..."

"The doctor will not save those who die!" Dugu Jialuo refuted again. He was very angry. When was this? The saint was in danger, and everyone still had the heart to talk about these trivial matters! Now he was angry with everyone present.

In fact, everyone present was in a heavy mood: Xu Zhizang said li, and his intention was to Emperor Tianyuan. Yuwen Yu's biological mother was surnamed Li, and Li Li was homophone. He said li means Yuwen Yu. Yuwen Yu's illness was beyond help, so Xu Zhizang couldn't speak directly, so he had to go around and say it clearly. Dugu Jialuo was most concerned about Yuwen Yu's life and death. Because he was too concerned about love, he could not hear the meaning of Xu Zhizang's words.

Xu Zhizang twisted the silver beard with his hands and said slowly:

"This pear tree was originally very prosperous and lush; but it neither bloomed nor bears fruit. Later, someone gave me some advice: In this case, you need to cut a few more knifes under the trunk to make you blossom and bear fruit, and the flowers bloom more and the fruits bear more fruits. I acted as I said, and it was true! It bloomed like crazy and seemed to bear fruit!"

Everyone has heard of this kind of thing, and they all feel it is very strange and they really don’t understand the mystery.

Li Delin couldn't help asking, "Does this make sense?"

"Some..." Xu Zhizang pondered for a while before saying, "I think all living beings have feelings, even if plants and trees are no exception. A few times of knife at the bottom of the tree trunk are injured in the vital points. It feels that it is difficult for it to protect itself, so it quickly reproduces descendants. It is important to know that reproduction is the instinct of sentient beings. Once its own survival crisis is imminent, the reproduction will accelerate. Most people in troubled times are lustful, which is caused by the survival crisis. Although he himself does not understand it very well, or even does not understand at all, the deepest motivation is this."

Dugu Jialuo refuted again: "I think that in troubled times, killing people is the main focus, and killing people in large quantities!"

Xu Zhizang immediately said: "On the one hand, he killed others in large quantities, and on the other hand, he tried to reproduce his own descendants in large quantities. I think this is the law of survival in troubled times." Xu Zhizang was the first to preview Yuwen Yu's death.

Dugu Mingjing, Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo first heard this preview. From the moment he left Xu Zhizang's mansion, Dugu Mingjing was like losing his parents. His father Dugu Xin's success was entirely due to Yuwen Yu. Yuwen Yu ascended the throne amid the dissent of the royal relatives, and he also climbed up with the condemnation of the royal relatives.

In order to enjoy the glory and wealth forever, Yuwen Yu managed to kill the leading geese among the royal relatives one by one, and was secretly happy for his successful political achievements. Unexpectedly, Yuwen Yu died!

Yuwen Yu was twenty-two years old and died too suddenly. He left the world less than one year old when he became an emperor! The eldest prince Yuwen Chan was only four years old. The four-year-old eldest prince must have ministers to assist in the government. The so-called auxiliary government is actually to exercise the power of the emperor on behalf of the emperor.

The court officials have always been dissatisfied with Dugu Mingjing's intervention in political affairs, and many ministers have deep resentment towards Dugu Mingjing. Any royal relative who came to power, Dugu Mingjing's former assistant to Yuwen Yu will become a crime, and he will die without a place to bury him!

Dugu Mingjing couldn't sleep that night. Who would have the place to settle down when she came to power to assist in the administration? Gala had a premonition of his sister's concerns and kept by her side, helping her out for advice.

There are still five younger brothers behind Yuwen Yu, Yuwen Yong, Yuwen Xian, Yuwen Zhi, Yuwen Zhao and Yuwen Jian. They are all princes, but no matter who comes to power to assist in the administration, they are afraid that Dugu Mingjing will be killed the next day! The Northern Wei royal family has always had a tradition of the death of the noble mother of the son. When Yuwen Yu took office, he also killed his mother, Empress Wen.

Among the relatives, Yuchi Jing is the son-in-law of Emperor Wen's sister Princess Changle. He himself is the son-in-law of Emperor Wen's daughter Princess Jin Ming, and his younger brother Yuchi Jing is the son-in-law of Emperor Wen's daughter Princess Henan, and he is a complete family of horse-bearing.
