Wu Pen's work is perfect, Perfect Son-in-law Chapter 37 Zhang Xu Da

  ……

  "Where is Brother You Bin going?" The rich second generation met Ao Wu at the county gate.

  Baoquan warmly greeted Ao Wu.

  Your sister, waiting for you in the city for so many days and you didn't come back. Now that the boss has something to do and is coming out, you're finally back. Are you intentionally trying to annoy me?!

  With a forced smile on his face, he greeted him: "Father-in-law invited me to Licheng County for a trip, and where is Brother Kang going?"

  The name of the second generation is Er Kang, and together they are called Er Kang, which is a beautiful wish.

  And yet, Er Kang, isn't this a homophone of "the saint of love"?

  Are you still remembering Ruby Lin from My Fair Princess?

  "I went to Qinghe County to pick up a noble friend, when I arrived nearby, he went to visit his good friend, and I waited here for him." The rich second-generation's face was flushed with excitement, as if something delightful had happened.

  Even the humiliation he suffered at Cheng's house earlier seemed to be let go of and not brought up with Ao Wu.

  "The weather is perfect on this summer day, but Brother Kang doesn't plan to go out and have some fun?" Ao Wu asked.

  The rich second generation was stunned and said: "Noble friend wants to stay at home for half a month and doesn't plan to go out, why does Right Bin brother ask this?"

  It's better you don't go out, just wait for me to come back and pick you up.

  "Oh, I thought we could travel together again. Since we can't, I'll take my leave first and look for Brother Er Kang when I return to have a good chat." With that, he urged his black horse on and rode off into the distance.

  Licheng County is now Jinan City. The Baotu Spring in Jinan is very mysterious and famous.

  Liáng Fù County is south of Mount Tai, Lì Chéng County is north of Mount Tai.

  To get to Licheng County, you have to go around half of Mount Tai.

  The fast horse had been walking for a day and finally arrived at Licheng County. It followed the servant to the county governor's mansion.

  First saw Bell Doctor.

  It's really hard to be a great doctor, once famous, the wealthy and the aristocratic would all look for him when they're ill, let alone the incurable diseases in later generations, not to mention ancient times, so he was troubled, encountering one case after another with the possibility of being scolded.

  Now this Zhang Jun Cheng is also someone he cannot save with his own power.

  A few days ago when he fell ill, he was still conscious, but now he is in a coma.

  Zhong Shenyi thought that his son-in-law could save Madame Cheng, and maybe this time he could also be saved. He hastily ordered someone to call his precious son-in-law over.

  After listening to Zhong Shenyi's description of Zhang Juncheng's condition, Ao Wu said, "It can't be high blood pressure, can it?"

  "Huh, what is high blood pressure?" Doctor Zhong asked strangely.

  In ancient times, there was no concept of blood vessels, so how could high blood pressure be explained?

  "This is an illness name told by Lao Dao, but it's not certain yet, we need to take a look," said Ao Wu.

  Needless to say, Zhong Shenyi hastily led Ao Wu inside.

  In the name of a divine doctor, get rid of irrelevant people from Zhang's family and have them leave. The son-in-law has brought life-saving equipment, but you can't know about it.

  Only Zhang Jun Cheng's legitimate son is left, feel free to let him see it.

  The old man with a square face on the bed, although he was unconscious, had a kind of majesty, like an old tiger, even when he was ill, he still had the majesty of a tiger, which could intimidate people.

  He is Zhang Xuduo, the governor of Qi County.

  What is the position of County Magistrate?

  Before Yang Guang, the country was divided into three levels of administration: prefectures, states, and counties. After Yang Guang's reform, it was simplified to two levels: prefectures and counties. Prefectures were equivalent to cities. The mayor was called the prefectural governor, and the vice-prefect was under the governor, assisting him, equivalent to a deputy mayor.

  Zhang Xu Da, who is he?

  A very powerful general. A few years ago, the King of Han rebelled, and Zhang Xu followed Yang Su to quell the rebellion, earning merit and becoming a deputy mayor. This should be the deputy mayor of an anti-terrorism public security bureau chief.

  In history, after the outbreak of peasant uprisings, Zhang Xuyuan eliminated several factions and finally died in battle against Wawangzhai.

  But he was not just a hawkish official, he was also an official who cared about the people. Yang Guang had repeatedly used troops against Goguryeo over the next two years, causing many people to lose their livelihoods, and with famine added to that, grain prices soared. Zhangsun decided to open up the granaries to give food to the disaster victims. His subordinates believed: "We must wait for an imperial edict, we cannot act on our own." Zhangsun then said:

  "Now the Emperor is far away, and it will take a long time for messengers to go back and forth. The people are in urgent need of relief, like those waiting for a response, and by the time it arrives, they will have been exhausted. If I were to be punished for this, I would die without regret." He then acted first and reported later, opening the granary to distribute grain. When Yang Guang found out about it, he did not blame Zhang Xusuo, but instead rewarded him.

  Just for this guts, Ao Wu felt that he should also save this person.

  He took his pulse for a while and found out he really had high blood pressure.

  "Ah Wu, is it really high blood pressure as you said?" Doctor Zhong asked.

  It's also impossible for me to tell you!

  "No." Ao Wu shook his head, "But I can cure this illness. Prepare a small knife, I need to bleed him."

  Kao Wu knew that for middle-aged people with high blood pressure, there was a treatment called bloodletting therapy.

  Zhang Xu's son brought a small knife with a blade of only one centimeter, and Ao Wu poured wine on the small knife.

  The rich wine aroma made both people in the room feel invigorated.

  But at this time they did not think of wine, but thought it was a life-saving medicine.

  Good medicine is also poured on a handkerchief, moistened, and let Zhang's son help Zhang Xu to get up, wipe his ears, behind his ears, and the back of his neck to disinfect.

  Bloodletting surgery begins.

  The small knife continuously stabbed Zhang Shu's ear, behind the ear and back of the neck, letting out blood.

  Zhang's son was really afraid that the small knife would accidentally stab his father in the head, and he also wondered if it was to assassinate his father, but seeing Ao Wu doing it so seriously, he felt at ease.

  After stitching once, Ao Wu stopped and took out the silver needle, inserted it, input some spiritual energy to nourish his qi and blood, and then continued to stitch.

  After doing this for five or six times, Zhang Xu finally saw that his face was no longer as red as before, and it seemed to be effective.

  That night, Zhang Xu suddenly woke up.

  The Zhang family was overjoyed.

  Zhang Xuyuan touched his own ears after eating the thin porridge, and he himself had walked through the Ghost Gate Pass, but was actually rescued by being stabbed with this small knife.

  "Good job, little brother!" Zhang Xu's voice was low and majestic.

  "It's just an old recipe passed down from our ancestors." Ao Wu said.

  The next two days, Ao Wu stayed in Licheng County and performed bloodletting surgery for Zhang Xu.

  Three times in the morning, noon and evening, Zhang Xuduo's complexion also improved.

  By the third day, he was able to get out of bed and move around.

  Watching him pick up the stone lock and dance with it, he was indeed vigorous.

  Only such a fierce man could still ride a horse and fight at the age of sixty.

  "General, how is your body?" Ao Wu walked over.

  Zhang Xu's stone lock did not let go, and he still had the strength to say: "Now his whole body is full of energy, Xiao Shenyi is indeed meticulous!"

  Of course, be careful then, if there's a riot later on, I'll have to rely on you.

  "General, one can only recover from illness faster if they put down their worries and troubles, and feel carefree in body and mind." Ao Wu said calmly beside him.

  Zhang Xu's stone lock paused for a moment, and then swung again. "In August, Your Majesty will go on a southern tour of Jiangdu, and the two banks of the Grand Canal need to be heavily guarded. If I fall asleep due to illness and don't wake up, the crime would be too great!"

  Zhang Xu Da is from Henan Province and does not speak with a Shandong accent.

  His voice was filled with gratitude, "Thank you, little divine doctor. I woke up at just the right time to complete my task."

  It's only June, and there are still more than two months until August. Zhang Xu's illness is not a trivial matter that cannot be completed to protect Yang Guang's mission. The court will replace Zhang Xu, and Zhang Xu's official career will also come to an end.

  Kao Wu saved not only Zhang Xu's life, but also his official career and the fate of his family.

  "Now that General's illness has been cured and he can protect Your Majesty, why is your brow still furrowed?" Ao Wu said, looking at his tightly knitted eyebrows.

  Zhang Xu turned his head to glance at Ao Wu, then put down the two heavy stone locks weighing around 50-60 kilograms each and sat down on one of them with a thud.

  "I'm afraid it's going to be tough on the common people again." He sighed.

  Kao Wu walked over and sat down on a stone lock opposite him, assuming an air of listener.

  "Your Majesty sailed south from the Eastern Capital on a dragon boat along the Grand Canal, with boats lined up for over 200 miles, shining brightly on land and water. Cavalry marched along both banks, and banners covered the fields. In all the counties they passed through, within a radius of 500 miles, they were ordered to offer food, with some provinces sending as many as 100 carts, bearing rare delicacies from land and sea. But when it was time to depart, most of them were discarded or buried." Zhang Xu sighed.

  Yang Guang's southern tour of Yangzhou was too extravagant and wasteful. Zhang Xuandu dared to speak out, but Ao Wu couldn't comment, he could only be a listener.

  "General, is it right or wrong?"

  Zhang Xu hesitated for a moment, then said: "Your Majesty pacified Chen State during the Wen Emperor's reign and spent ten years operating in Jiangdu. However, the contradictions in the south have not been resolved yet. The southern tour is meant to intimidate and appease, making the talents of the south serve our great Sui dynasty. As for whether it should be done or not, it should indeed be done. It's just that Your Majesty views the common people as nothing... Alas..."

  Yang Guang has done many things with achievements, such as digging the Grand Canal and promoting cultural exchanges between the north and south. However, he made a mistake by not putting the people of the world in his eyes, but instead treating them as tools, letting them do whatever he wanted to do. He did not have the awakening of Li Shimin later: water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it.

  Zhang Xu Da is indeed someone who sees things clearly.

  But in this position, he can't do anything.

  Someone came in from outside, and Zhang Xu also stopped talking.

  Zhang Xu gave his last bloodletting treatment and Ao Wu and Zhong Shen Yi completed their task and returned to Liangfu County.

  All the way, Zhong Shen Yi was laughing with a smile that couldn't be closed. When they said goodbye earlier, Zhang Xu didn't give gold or silver, but instead had his eldest son kowtow to Zhong Shen Yi. Ao Wu saved Zhang Xu's life, and this life of his eldest son belongs to Ao Wu. From now on, whatever Ao Wu asks for, the Zhang family will accomplish it, even if they fail in the end, it will be the result of the Zhang family paying with a life.

  For the Zhong family, where would such a thing happen that would take the life of Zhang's son, but this friendship has been formed, and in the future, there will be many benefits.

  Zhong Shenyi was now looking at Ao Wu and found himself liking him more and more.

  Kao Wu didn't feel happy, but rather thought that these ancient people were particularly chivalrous. Doctors treating illnesses and saving lives was a professional obligation, yet they believed that if they saved your life, that life belonged to them, which was quite endearing.

  No time was wasted on the road, and in one day, he returned to Liangfu County.

  Hope the rich second generation keeps his word and doesn't go out for a trip, otherwise I'll have to wait for a gap in his schedule to kill him.
