Chapter 563: Doctor (Update 1)

"Everyone, stand up."

An old and deep voice sounded in the hall.

Everyone responded respectfully.

When Ye Chutang stood up, he also looked up. Emperor Mu Wu was wearing a dragon robe today, and he looked much better than before when he was bedridden.

At first glance, although he looked thinner and more haggard than before, he still retained the majesty of an emperor.

In short, it is enough to fool those who don't know the inside story.

However, unlike in the past, this time there was no concubine following Emperor Mu Wu. Instead, the eldest princess lagged behind and sat down at the lower left.

——In the past, in such occasions, it was Concubine Ru who performed the duties of the Queen. Now that she has been demoted, she will naturally not appear here again.

Naturally, everyone had heard about what had happened in the palace, and seeing what was happening, they all tactfully kept quiet.

The third prince Xiao Chengqi sat at the lower right, apparently the leader among all the princes.

Next to him was the fourth prince, Xiao Chenglin, who had not appeared in public for a long time.

Ye Chutang's eyes moved slightly, scanning the people opposite, but he did not see the familiar figure.

Princess Qinyang lowered her voice and said, "My brother went to the city gate to greet people."

I see.

Ye Chutang understood, and after thinking carefully, there was really no one more suitable than Chen Yanchuan.

Dingbei Hou Shen Youyan has guarded the northern border for several years, and Shen Yanchuan has also fought against Master Wa several times and is very familiar with them.

Of course it would be best if he went.

Princess Qinyang asked again: "Chu Tang, are you acquainted with Prince Jing?"

Ye Chutang raised his eyes calmly: "Why do you ask?"

"He was looking at you just now." Princess Qinyang raised her chin towards the opposite side, "From his expression, it seems that he knows you."

Princess Qinyang also had a sharp vision. Many of the people present had seen Ye Chutang before, and there were countless people staring at her at this moment. Princess Qinyang could guess about 70% of what those people were thinking with just one glance.

Only Xiao Chenglin...seemed to be very familiar with Ye Chutang, and his attitude was quite friendly.

However, after Ye Chutang came in, he didn't even glance in that direction, and seemed as if he was not familiar with him.

It's really strange.

Ye Chutang said "Oh" softly and explained concisely: "I have seen him before. At that time, I didn't know his identity. I just thought he was an ordinary young master from a noble family and helped him to diagnose a case."

"I see!"

Princess Qinyang did not expect that there was such a relationship between them and was surprised.

"Isn't this just too much of a coincidence?"

Ye Chutang thought it was okay. After all, she had received quite a lot of patients, and Xiao Chenglin was not really special among them.

She didn't take it seriously at first, but since they met by chance last time, the other party's attitude has been... very subtle.

Ye Chutang found it boring.

If he really wanted to thank her, he would have contacted her when she returned to Beijing. Why did he wait until later?

Princess Qinyang saw that she didn't seem to care much, and she roughly knew her attitude in her heart, so she let out a light sigh.

"He is different now. He can even sit in that position in such an occasion. In the past, how could he have received such treatment?"

Ye Chutang had heard some rumors, all saying that Xiao Chenglin's biological mother was of humble origins and passed away early. He was left alone and basically a nobody, leading a very unhappy life.

But now it's different.

After Xiao Chengxuan fell, Xiao Chengqi was in a coma for a long time. If he had not woken up later, Xiao Chenglin would be sitting in the first seat today.

No matter how poor a prince is, he is still a prince.

If the brothers before him were killed or injured, then it would really be his turn to step forward.

"It's fate." Ye Chutang smiled, "It seems that the princess... doesn't like him very much?"

"That's not the case." Princess Qinyang shook her head, "I'm just not familiar with him, and he and I are not the same kind of people."

Ye Chutang nodded.

In fact, this is obvious. These two people have completely different backgrounds and situations, and their styles of doing things are completely different. It is normal that they have no friendship.

Princess Qinyang looked around and chuckled, "If it were a month ago, who would have thought that the situation would be like this today?"

No one can be glorious forever.

No one can tell what is waiting for them tomorrow.

Suddenly, there was a noisy noise outside.

"Grand Prince Wazhen leads an envoy to meet the emperor!"

The originally bustling hall suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked towards the outside of the hall, unable to hide their curiosity.

The first thing that caught my eye were the two people standing in the front.

A tall and straight man with extraordinary elegance and grace, it was Shen Yanchuan who was in charge of welcoming them.

A burly man, not tall but extremely strong, exuding a unique aura of barbarity and ferocity. He is the eldest prince of Wazhen, Ugle.

Xiaowu poked his head out and looked around curiously.

——These Wa masters are indeed the same as my sister described before!

The wildness that came out of the fighting on the grassland is hard to conceal, and one can recognize at a glance that he is very different from the pampered nobles in the capital!

Xiao Wu only took a few glances and quickly looked away, focusing his attention back on the delicacies in front of him.

I've already seen the person, he's not that good-looking, anyway... he's nowhere near as good as the Crown Prince, there's nothing to see.

I should think about bringing those pastries back to my third brother later!

Shen Yanchuan raised his hand: “Please.”

Ugler did not dare to slack off in the face of this opponent with whom he had fought several times, both openly and secretly. He clasped his fists and then walked into the hall.

When he reached the center of the hall, he finally stood still, put one hand on his chest, and bowed his head.

"Saibainu!"

He first spoke a long string of Wazhen words, and then switched to Mandarin that everyone could understand. Although his pronunciation was not standard, it could be heard that he had learned it specially.

"Ugler greets His Majesty! Long live His Majesty!"

The several Wazhen warriors following behind him also bowed their heads in salute.

Emperor Muwu smiled and said, "A guest has come from afar, welcome."

Ugler thanked him again.

Both sides knew the purpose of the Wazhen delegation's visit to Beijing, so they appeared to be very friendly on the surface.

After Emperor Mu Wu invited them to take their seats, he exchanged a few pleasantries and then asked about Mumu Zhen'er's recent situation.

"Come to think of it, I haven't seen your father for a long time. I wonder how he is doing now?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent and looked at Ugle.

Wugel said: "God bless, my father is doing well, thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."

No one believes this.

If Mumu Zhen'er was still as brave and skilled in fighting as before, Ugle would never have been able to set foot in the capital.

He came to seek peace, and since he was “seeking”, he must have encountered difficulties.

Emperor Mu Wu did not expose it, but just smiled and nodded: "That's good."

Wugel suddenly asked, "I heard that your Majesty was ill some time ago, but he looks very well today. I wonder if the doctor who treated your Majesty is here today?"
