Chapter 43 Post House

Speaking of practicing medicine, Li Ang subconsciously stroked the medicine box next to the seat. The box contained surgical tools such as scalpels, hemostats, and midwifery forceps that he asked Cheng Juxiu to help make.

It's a pity that the Nightmare Bell was returned to Fusi of Weizhou Township after the Baigou case was over. Otherwise, with the bell that can make people fall into a stasis coma, Li Ang would be much more confident in performing real surgery.

‘However, Chang’an City is so big, and it is the seat of the Academy and the headquarters of the Zhenfu Division, there should be many types of alienated objects.

Maybe there are alienation substances that can solve disinfection, hemostasis, and anesthesia at one time.

As long as the three basic prerequisites of surgery can be solved, there is no need to be limited to bone setting massage’

Li Ang looked at the medicine box in a daze, Chai Cuiqiao thought for a while and said, "By the way, I didn't see Yu Miaoshui today. I thought he would come out to plead guilty on the last day, please forgive me."

"normal."

Li Ang said nonchalantly: "Since the news of my letter of recommendation spread, he has no way out.

Anyway, he has already torn his face and offended him to death, and he will not be forgiven if he pleads guilty, so he might as well wait at home for news.

Wait for me to pass the exam, or fail to pass the exam. "

Li Ang didn't think he was a magnanimous saint. Since Yu Miaoshui wanted to take advantage of the new funeral of the Li family to seize the Li family's property, wipe out his family, and even instructed the local ruffians to find trouble in the security hall, he should pay the corresponding price.

Presumably the other party is also mentally prepared.

Thinking of this, Li Ang couldn't help smiling.

I heard that after the news of Li Ang's letter of recommendation spread, Qing'an Hall closed its doors and went out of business. Yu Miaoshui stayed at home all day, and no one saw him.

During this period of time, he must have had a hard time, right?

Then stay for another three months.

Li Ang smiled and patted the medicine box. When he left Weizhou, he didn't hand over the hard-earned security hall to Aunt Song or ask someone to take care of it.

One is that they are afraid that the invited quack doctor will misdiagnose and damage the reputation of Baoantang.

The second is that he is worried that there may be something abnormal about the well in Baoantang——after he completes the spell, he will have to go back to Baoantang to investigate thoroughly.

The two masters and servants chatted casually with each other. The speed of the palace carriage was extremely fast, and the effect of sound insulation and shock absorption was excellent.

In addition, the road is flat and straight, and there are no trees within ten steps on both sides of the road (to prevent the forest from eroding the road surface and guard against wild animals).

Even if you sleep in the spacious seat, you will not be woken up by the shock.

It was getting late outside the window, and the Xuegong convoy carrying the students from Weizhou stopped at the post on the side of the official road.

The Post House is also the official hotel set up on the Post Station. The State of Yu stipulates that there is one post station within 20 miles of a prosperous state capital, and one post station within a hundred miles of a remote state capital.

The main function of the post was to transmit military intelligence and political orders. The envoys could rely on "passing talismans" to stay, eat, and transfer horses in the post. Officials could also live in the post when they took office.

This Shiguan station had learned in advance that the school convoy would stop here. The staff at the station had long been waiting by the side of the road, and greeted them with smiles on their faces. They knocked on the outer wall of each carriage and greeted the students on board. .

"Wow."

Li Ang and Chai Cuiqiao stood at the gate of Shiguan Station, a little surprised at the scale of the station.

Although there is no shop in front of the village or back, it is built on the mountain, with post buildings, post stables, post halls, wine storage, tea storage, vegetable storage, as well as boats along the river, bamboo forests, and gardens.

It can accommodate hundreds of people, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a summer resort for wealthy businessmen.

"Yu Guo is really rich."

Li Ang and Chai Cuiqiao stood under the archway of the post station, and they all sighed like bumpkins,

"Ah."

There was a girl's kind laughter not far away. Li Ang and Chai Cuiqiao turned their heads and saw a girl who was about his age getting off the carriage with the help of a maid.

"The previous post houses in Yu State were not so spacious. A post house has to receive hundreds of envoys and officials a year. They stay here for one night and leave the next day after eating. They don't cherish the facilities in the post house. .

Casually tie the horses in the courtyard, bring the falcons into the hall, and secretly catch the fish in the pond to roast.

Defile the house and destroy the utensils.

Those with low official positions can still be suppressed by the post house,

Even if a person with a high official position is extorted and harassed wantonly, the post house has no choice but to support and cope with it.

In the past few decades, Yu State has reorganized the post house system and strictly investigated and dealt with the abuse of talismans, which has made it much better. "

The young girl has broad knowledge, natural demeanor, elegant conversation, and gentle tone, which attracted the attention of everyone present as soon as she opened her mouth.

The person in charge who came to greet the post house—a middle-aged female official, blushed and said emotionally: "What the little lady said is that the post house used to be too hard.

It can be maintained now, thanks to the benevolent government of the Holy Queen. "

The holy queen, that is, the empress surnamed Wu a hundred years ago.

"That's right, the Holy Empress is a role model for women in Yu State and even the world."

The girl smiled gently at the female officer, turned her head and saluted Li Ang, "Ji Linglang."

"Leon."

Li Ang bowed his hand to return the gift, feeling a little curious in his heart.

The surname is Ji, presumably the other party is the daughter of Ji Chi, the largest yamen in Weizhou and the prefect.

I heard from Cheng Juxiu before that Ji Linglang, as a recommended student who also received a recommendation letter, has eleven spiritual veins, has reached an excellent level, and has a high probability of being admitted to the academy.

Outstanding talent, outstanding appearance, rich family background, knowledgeable and reasonable,

No wonder as soon as she came out, the students from Weizhou who got off the bus showed eager expressions on their faces—especially Zhai Yiming, who was the first in the state exam this year.

Cheng Juxiu took out a copper amulet, a paper certificate, and a jade pendant from the school palace from his arms, and handed them to the female officer of the post station one by one for verification.

After the identity verification is completed, the servants in the post house will remove the luggage from the car, send it to their respective guest rooms, and then lead the horses to the stables.

The horses used by the Xuegong convoy, like the fine dogs used by Zhenfusi, are specially bred breeds.

Each horse is tall and strong, with both endurance and speed. They eat finely formulated forage, and sometimes special drugs are added to the feed.

Only medium and large post stations like Shiguan Station are able to provide them.

The staff of the post station led everyone from Weizhou to the guest room. Ji Linglang walked in the middle of the team, chatting and laughing with another female student from Weizhou who was going to the school to take the entrance exam together.

Di Yiming and several other students from Weizhou on the side wanted to flatter them, but they were calmly turned back.

"Wow, the daughter of the prefect's family is different,"

Chai Cuiqiao whispered into Li Ang's ear, "I thought it would be more arrogant and domineering."

"Um."

Li Ang nodded casually, without any disturbance in his heart.

Every one of the tens of thousands of students participating in the school entrance examination today is the best young elite in the local area,

When they arrived in Chang'an, even the descendants of the royal clan and dignitaries wanted to compete together.

The eunuch's daughter is fine.
