Siheyuan: I have broken space
Chapter 198: Seeing Lin Ruhai for the first time
Lin Ruhai did not look down upon Wang Tingxuan because of his age, which gave Wang Tingxuan a good first impression of him.
"My little friend, do you know that all the famous doctors in the south of the Yangtze River can't cure my illness?"
Do you even need to say this?
Anyone in Yangzhou City who had heard of it knew that Lin Ruhai was seriously ill in bed, so he invited famous doctors from Jiangnan.
Wang Tingxuan said: "Mr. Lin, although I am not sure of curing your disease, I can still relieve your pain and delay your life for some time."
Lin Ruhai said: "Then please."
Wang Tingxuan used his meager medical skills to check Lin Ruhai's pulse, but found nothing. The only gain was that he found that Lin Ruhai's pulse was extremely weak and there were signs of slight poisoning.
Wang Tingxuan didn't know how this poison was produced, but it could be used to scare people and complete his mission.
"Master Lin, please forgive me for telling you this, but you are suffering from a severe poison that cannot be cured by any medicine."
Lin Ruhai said: "Other doctors said the same thing. If you don't have any other skills, please leave. I heard that you were attacked by bandits, so I asked the housekeeper to give you some silver. That's good."
Wang Tingxuan said: "Master Lin, don't worry. Although I can't detoxify, I may be able to delay the onset of toxins in your body. I don't know if Master Lin is willing to believe it. I only have one life-saving ammunition left in my body, which can only help Master Lin recover a little."
vitality."
What Lin Ruhai was given was a chronic poison. His body was unable to resist the attack of toxins in his body, and he became terminally ill.
Wang Tingxuan didn't know how to detoxify. However, the ginseng in the space had the effect of strengthening the body and strengthening the body. As long as Lin Ruhai's body energy was restored and her immune system could resist the toxin, Lin Ruhai's life could be temporarily saved.
Looking at the porcelain bottle Wang Tingxuan took out, Lin Ruhai did not take it immediately.
Wang Tingxuan said with a smile: "Does Mr. Lin think that I will poison you? If I want to harm you, why bother?"
This is exactly what happened.
Lin Ruhai took the pill and vomited it without hesitation.
Wang Tingxuan heard a small exclamation in the room and guessed that Lin Daiyu was hiding in the room.
The elixir is composed of ginseng, honey, and other auxiliary materials. This is a recipe he got from a famous Chinese medicine practitioner.
In his previous life, he used some of it on those friends, and there were no adverse reactions. Those friends who got the elixir also lived a long life.
After taking the elixir, Lin Ruhai regained a lot of energy, became interested, and started chatting with Wang Tingxuan.
Wang Tingxuan didn't know much about outside things, and the only thing worthy of praise was his eclectic ideas.
Through chatting, Wang Tingxuan felt that Lin Ruhai was quite shrewd in government affairs and had good methods. He could not be a simple person after serving as the salt inspector for nearly ten years.
But he had questions again.
How could such Lin Ruhai be so unwise? The emperor has been on the throne for five years. As the salt patrol censor of the feudal frontier, how could he not go to the capital to report on his duties?
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Lin Ruhai's behavior was seeking death.
I remember in the book, after Lin Ruhai died of illness, there was no additional reward from the royal family.
Lin Ruhai was a hereditary marquis from his ancestors. He was born in Kedi (Tanhua) and served successively as "Grand Master of Lantai Temple" and "Censor of Salt Patrol".
The biggest labels on Lin Ruhai are "Doctor of Lantai Temple" and "Censor of Salt Patrol".
In the Qing Dynasty, salt inspection censors were either directly selected from the Ministry of Internal Affairs after Kangxi, or concurrently held by officials from the Ministry of Internal Affairs in other positions. Although they were all given the title of supervisory censor, they generally used the original official rank.
Cao Xueqin wrote "A Dream of Red Mansions" based on the background of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, so Lin Ruhai's actual rank should be calculated according to the doctor of Lantai Temple.
Regarding the position of "Grand Master of Lantai Temple", Zhiyanzhai Jia Xumei commented: "It is good if the official system is half based on the ancient name. I like this kind of half existence and half nothingness, half ancient and half modern, and there is no reason to do anything.
It must be something that is extremely mysterious, illusory, and absurd." Some researchers believe that this "doctor of Lantai Temple" is actually the censor of the Imperial Palace.
The censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is an official position of the third rank.
With such an official position, he was still a confidant of the Supreme Emperor, but he did not receive any special preferential treatment after his death. There must be some strange reasons for this.
At this time, the elixir had already taken effect, but it could be seen from his face that Lin Ruhai's health was much better.
Butler Lin shouted in surprise: "Master, how do you feel?"
Lin Ruhai felt her physical condition carefully and was suddenly pleasantly surprised.
"Thank you little friend for helping me."
Wang Tingxuan said: "Mr. Lin, please wait and thank you. Although my elixir can restore some of your vitality, it cannot cure you."
At this time, Lin Ruhai's physical strength had recovered well, and he said with a smile: "I am very grateful to be able to live like this. I wonder if my friend can tell me the formula of the elixir. Lin is willing to thank me generously."
Wang Tingxuan nodded and did not refuse. Even if he gave the elixir to Lin Ruhai, it would not matter. The real reason why the elixir can have such a good effect is the ginseng produced in the space. Although other ginseng can replace it, the effect
It's much different.
"Master Lin, I still need to conduct further inspections on you. Some of Master Lin's privacy is involved, so I need you to step aside."
Lin Ruhai thought for a moment and then agreed to Wang Tingxuan's proposal.
It was at this time that Wang Tingxuan saw Lin Daiyu. It was not clear, but Lin Daiyu was really thin at this time.
"Please also ask Butler Lin not to let outsiders break in."
After everyone left, Wang Tingxuan closed the door of Lin Ruhai's room.
"Mr. Lin, your physical condition should be recovering well now. Then please take a look at this."
Wang Tingxuan handed over his identity certificate and the emperor's secret message to Lin Ruhai.
Lin Ruhai didn't say anything. She took Wang Tingxuan's identity certificate, took a look at it, and said, "You are the emperor's imperial guard. Why did the emperor send you here?"
"Master Lin, if you read the emperor's secret letter, you will know the reason."
Wang Tingxuan didn't know if there were any special precautions in this secret letter, so he didn't open it, and he didn't know how the letter was written.
Lin Ruhai read the letter word by word, but his expression became unnatural.
After reading the letter, Lin Ruhai raised his head and asked, "Can I ask you a few questions."
"Okay." At the same time, Wang Tingxuan also picked up the secret letter and read it quickly.
In fact, there was nothing else written in the letter. It only praised some of Lin Ruhai's achievements and used these things to bring them closer to each other.
The most important thing is that the emperor begged Lin Ruhai in his heart to hand over the salt administration's account books for the sake of the people in Jiangnan. Of course, the letter would not be so straightforward.
"Why did the Emperor send you all the way here to ask for the account books? Can't you hand them over to the next Salt Inspector?"
"The Emperor does not know who Mr. Lin belongs to, nor does he know who the next Salt Inspector is. If the account books cannot be obtained, the salt administration of Mr. Lin for nearly ten years will become a mess.
"
"Does the Emperor not trust Lin? Lin has never been ashamed of the Emperor, nor has he been ashamed of the court."
"Master Lin, it is true that you have never been ashamed to the imperial court. Otherwise, the emperor would not have sent us to ask for the account books. As for the fact that you have never been ashamed to the emperor, it is better not to say it."
"Why do you say that?"
"In the five years since the emperor came to the throne, Mr. Lin has not come to the capital to report on his duties, nor has he received any salt tax or secret reports from Mr. Lin."
