684 First Villa
The new branch of the Imperial Medical Service was run by Imperial Physician Gu. When Zhu Yuanzheng went to Jiangnan, he was the one who took charge of the Imperial Medical Service.
When Doctor Gu saw that it was Ping An, he just greeted him, and the eunuch who followed him hurriedly explained the purpose of his visit.
"Marquis Ping'an, since the emperor has ordered this, just go find the medicine you need and register it later."
Half an hour later.
He left the palace safely, bringing with him bags of medicinal herbs, some of which were not easily available.
The tonic that the emperor brought was also in his car.
"Xiao Wu, go to Master's house first, then to Hanlin Academy, and finally to the farm."
The carriage headed straight for the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion.
After arriving safely at the Sun Mansion, Sun Sicheng and Sun Wen were discussing matters to be handled in the next few months after their departure. Sun Sicheng invited Sun Wen to join him on this trip to Zither Mountain.
"Master, the emperor was very straightforward, with almost no hesitation. He also gave me a lot of good medicine and said that if it doesn't work for three months, I will delay my return. I will go to the Hanlin Academy to arrange for Shaoqi to take over. The emperor said that if Shaoqi can't handle it, then the great master can take over temporarily. In fact, Shaoqi is fully capable of doing it."
Sun Wen understood: "Normally, if you leave, it should be the two Grand Secretaries who will take over for you. I guess His Majesty is considering you for your great talent. Your ability has always made His Majesty reluctant to let you go."
Sun Sicheng smiled. Most of the masters now live in the farm. Yunhua from Changqing's family also went to the farm at the beginning of this spring. He is half a year younger than Muyang and is now four and a half years old.
But compared with Mu Yang, one is as sensible as a teenager, and the other is still a real baby. One goes home once every ten days, and the other goes out early and comes back late. His eldest daughter-in-law is a good person, but she cares too much about her children. The over-indulged children are still far behind.
Mr. Wang now treats Mu Yang as his favorite. Shao Qi’s son is about the same age as Yun Hua and is more than half a year younger than Mu Yang. The situation is the same.
The master and his two disciples discussed for a while, and then Ping An went to the Hanlin Academy.
Sun Sicheng and Sun Wen went to the hospital.
Yuan Qing will take over Sun Yat-sen's matter temporarily. Now is not the end of the year, so Yuan Qing is fully capable of doing the job.
Sun Sicheng's affairs are too complicated. Sun Sicheng and Sun Wen passed away at the same time. It is not easy for Changqing to handle it alone. But with his father Sun Yinan around, and Wanli will be back in a few days, there is no need to worry. After all, no one in the capital will come to mess with the Sun family.
He left the Hanlin Academy in half an hour without any trouble.
Shao Qi took over as the temporary president of the academy. The two fifth-rank imperial scholars had nothing to object to. The matter had already been reported to the emperor, and the oral order was also the emperor's order. What's more, the two imperial scholars were already around sixty years old, and they wished for less trouble so that they could live a peaceful life until they leave their jobs.
Ping An knew it clearly.
The great master had told him privately that the emperor intended to let him serve as the president of the Hanlin Academy for a few years. Once the crown prince ascended the throne, he would basically have to move to the Ministry of Revenue or the Ministry of Personnel, and he would not be as comfortable as he is now.
Of course it could be a few years later.
In any case, the possibility of him leaving his job early like his husband is very small.
This made Ping An a little troubled.
The best thing about having money and status is freedom. But there is no point in waiting until you are in your sixties or seventies and about to die to enjoy freedom.
Ping An could basically conclude that he would not live very long in this dynasty. If he wanted to live long, it would be impossible for him to take his master with him. After all, his master was twenty years older than him.
"Master, we have arrived at the farm."
Ping An looked at the manor gate not far away. The manor gate was rebuilt by someone hired by the retired emperor. It was very grand and elegant. On the plaque above the manor gate, there were four characters written in a flamboyant style: "First Manor."
This was written by the retired emperor himself, and the villa is indeed worthy of these four big words.
There are the retired emperor and the empress dowager in the manor. The emperor and the prince occasionally come to stay for half a day. There are also the old imperial tutor and the chief steward and his wife, the old master and mistress of the general's family, and the old owner of Baicao Hall.
Lord Yuanzheng, Marquis Zhongyong, and the Zhang family will also move in to live permanently in April.
Whose village has so many awesome people living in it?
Not to mention that Ping'an has made the entire farm magnificent in the past two years, and with the large piece of mountain land later bestowed by the emperor, it has now become a fruit forest with countless medicinal herbs planted under the forest.
In spring, this villa is picturesque everywhere, so beautiful that people are reluctant to leave.
As soon as Ping An got off the car, Xiao Ming and Da Lin ran over.
"Master."
"Master."
Ping An raised his eyebrows: "You two are so free?"
Xiao Ming smiled and said, "Master, I am not idle at all. We don't have enough wine jars. I am taking Dalin to the city to get more."
Dalin was smiling beside him.
"Dalin, where is your grandfather?"
"Master, Grandfather and Master Qin are leading people to grow herbs in the mountains. The farm is very busy these days."
"Well, come back as soon as you finish your work. I'll help you brew the rice wine starting this afternoon. We'll leave early the day after tomorrow, so we need to brew more rice wine."
Xiao Ming was startled: "Master, where are you going? How long will you be away for?"
He has always been following the young master. The farm has been busy during this period, and except for Xiao Wu and Lin Feng, everyone else is basically at the farm.
Lin Feng interrupted, "Young Master and I have something to do and will be away for a few months. When we come back, we will be brewing purple wine."
"How many months? Master, I want to follow you too." Xiao Ming was a little flustered.
Ping An walked in: "Go and do your business first."
Dalin saw the young master walking towards the pharmacy, "Brother Xiaoming, please ask the young master for mercy on my behalf, and I want to go with you too."
"Da Lin, your grandfather treats you as his life, but the young master may not agree."
Speaking of Dalin’s grandfather, who would have thought it was Doctor Wang?
After returning from Jiangnan, Ping An temporarily arranged for Doctor Wang to live in the village.
On the third day after Doctor Wang arrived at the village, he was stunned when he saw Dalin for the first time. He was exactly a smaller version of his son.
When asked again, he said his name was Dalin. This was the name of his grandson. He was already several years old when Dalin's parents got into trouble. He still remembered his first and last name, but he was sold twice in these years. He only used the name Dalin and never used his last name.
The reunion between grandparents and grandchildren can be said to be particularly smooth. Doctor Wang had not held out any hope of finding his grandson, but who knew that this would be even more legendary than a story?
Master Ping An accidentally saved his grandson's life. After the master's biological father bought himself, he gave himself to the master, which led to the reunion of grandfather and grandson.
After Ping An learned about this, he immediately asked Doctor Wang and Dalin that if they wanted to go home, he could release their bonds. Doctor Wang had medical skills, and the grandparents and grandchildren would live a good life after returning home.
But Dalin refused firmly. He wanted to stay with the young master for the rest of his life and never thought of leaving. Without the young master, he would have died long ago, so how could there be any future?
Doctor Wang is also willing to abide by the 20-year contract. After 20 years, he will be in his 60s or 70s, and by then he will be with his grandson.
But he had one condition, which was that he wanted to take his grandson to study medicine and make medicine. He still wanted to pass on the Wang family's medical skills to his grandson.
Ping An naturally agreed to this.
The hospital currently has enough staff, so Doctor Wang hopes to take his grandson to the village to make and identify medicines. Medical skills must be learned step by step. He can also help train some apprentices. Safety is of course what he hopes for.
After three months of living together with Jiangnan, Doctor Wang is very familiar with medicine and poison. He is not as good as Master Qin in making medicine, but he is much better than Qingshi and others in medicine and poison.
That afternoon, Ping An took Xiao Ming, Lin Feng and others to start the final steps of preparing several kinds of wine, and they were busy until dusk.
After leaving the wine cellar, Ping An hurriedly found his father, master, and the emperor, and told them about their trip the next morning.
When the retired emperor heard that he would leave the day after tomorrow and that Ping'an would come to the farm to brew wine tomorrow, he hurriedly said that he would write a letter of divorce tomorrow and prepare some supplements, and asked Ping'an to help him bring them to the Shi family father and son.
Wan Changsheng sighed repeatedly. He was extremely unwilling to go on a trip that would take several months.
