The Imperial Hospital was very worried.

Using this adjective is already a mild word. To be honest, it should be said that it is an unlucky year.

They breathed a sigh of relief when the prince escaped death. However, within two days, the prince fell ill again, this time reportedly due to worry.

The imperial physician took the patient's pulse and, aside from a slightly irregular pulse, found nothing serious. It was these incurable minor ailments that were the most vexing.

If the medicines were useless after being poured into the patient's mouth, the Imperial Medical Bureau would only be branded as being irresponsible.

The summer was hot and humid, and there were several huge ancient trees planted in the East Palace. At first glance, the treetops seemed to cover most of the sky above the palace.

When the wind blows, the leaves rustle, bringing a rare coolness in the summer.

Despite such a pleasant environment, Wei Sushen still barely managed to fall asleep until nearly three in the morning. Lately, his mornings have been even more intense, with a lingering fire within him. It's not just the wicked smile of 666 in his dreams, but he's also been experiencing lustful desires in the morning. This is more than just terrifying.

Wei Sushen always felt that something was wrong. Fang Shan seemed to have set a trap for him without him knowing. Unfortunately, he still hadn't figured out where the problem really lay.

That day, he once again awoke to lust, his body's reactions undeniable. Instead of satisfying his physical needs, Wei Sushen walked to the window, letting the cool breeze sober him up. As he gazed toward the cicada crawling on the tree, he caught a faint clue.

Before he had time to think about it, he was interrupted by the eunuch who was dressing him.

"Your Highness, Imperial Doctor Zhang is here to take your pulse."

The young eunuch shed bitter tears for the Imperial Hospital in his heart. The prince had no appetite and often had nightmares, so His Majesty specially sent someone to instruct the Imperial Hospital to prepare snacks.

"Let him in."

When Doctor Zhang came in, the young eunuch's sympathy reached its peak. He lost his appetite and felt helpless. In this vicious cycle, Doctor Zhang became increasingly thin.

Doctor Zhang asked cautiously, "How do you feel today, Your Highness?"

“Very bad.”

Doctor Zhang sighed inwardly, "Could Your Highness please explain in detail?"

Wei Sushen glanced at the young eunuch, who quickly retreated.

"You should know what you can and cannot say."

Doctor Zhang lowered his head throughout the entire conversation, his voice hoarse, "Please rest assured, Your Highness."

Wei Sushen: "I have a friend who is often schemed against by someone else. However, he has recently been dreaming about the person who schemed against him and has developed desires. Medically speaking, what is the reason for this?"

The imperial physician's voice trembled: "You and Concubine Li..."

In his mind, a friend of the prince = the prince, and the person who often plots against the prince = Concubine Li.

Could it be that the prince fell in love with Concubine Li, and the child in Concubine Li's belly -

Wei Sushen scolded: "Who gave you the courage to make such wild guesses?"

Doctor Zhang knew that he had spoken out of turn and begged for mercy repeatedly.

Wei Sushen didn't seem to be worried at all about him spreading his shocking remarks, and returned to the main topic: "What do you think is the reason?"

Doctor Zhang rephrased himself, gritting his teeth and saying, "I can only explain it in three words."

Wei Sushen raised his eyebrows: "Which three words?"

Doctor Zhang: "Because of love."

“…”

As soon as the last word fell, she was thrown onto the bed. Wei Sushen pressed down on this almost slender body and said with a cold smile, "Are you having fun?"

Doctor Zhang pretended to hold his belt securely, his face filled with fear. "Your Highness, are you going to...force yourself on me?"

Wei Sushen uttered a 'huh'.

Almost in an instant, the fear on Doctor Zhang's face disappeared, replaced by a light sigh: "The host has evolved. I will have much less fun in the future."

But soon, Fang Shan's eyes showed interest: "How did you discover my existence?"

Wei Sushen: "Medical practice requires observation, listening, questioning and palpation, yet this imperial physician always keeps his head down every time he comes in."

Fang Shan touched his chin and said, "No, the host probably only noticed this detail later."

Wei Sushen's eyelids twitched: "Every time I drink the medicine, my lust increases instead of decreasing. I think there is something wrong with the medicine itself."

Fang Shan clapped his hands and praised: "You got it right. Here's a reward for you."

"I don't want anything except money."

"...and the kiss?"

“No need.”

Fang Shan was not disappointed and just said, "Then I'll save it first."

Wei Sushen was about to speak when Fang Shan said with a smile, "They are all debts, so we have to compound the interest and redeem them together in the future."

Wei Sushen raised his eyelids and said meaningfully, "There is a long way to go."

Fang Shan smiled, still unfathomable: "Not bad."

After he finished speaking, he sat up cross-legged and straightened his clothes: "What is the mission?"

Wei Sushen shook his head, indicating that he had not seen it yet.

Fang Shan was surprised: "So many days have passed, and the host hasn't paid attention to it?"

"There's a knife hanging over my head all the time, and I don't have time to deal with it yet."

Both of them knew what the knife was referring to.

【Mission: If you were the emperor.】

Note: Born a dragon, how can you be inferior to humans? Soar, the throne is calling you!

Wei Sushen scanned the task at a glance and frowned slightly.

Fang Shan: "Host, are you wondering why this prince is favored?"

Wei Sushen: "It is indeed a troublesome matter."

Emperor Chengyuan was in his prime and had not done anything wrong, so he could not be killed.

Fang Shan began to summarize the truth of life: "So in this world, the most difficult people to deal with are those who are good to you."

Wei Sushen glanced at him and said, "Say something useful."

Fang Shan: "Once an emperor, he is still an emperor."

Needless to say, the difficulty of putting it into practice was significant, but Fang Shan was in a surprisingly good mood. To him, nothing was more interesting than palace fighting.

After accepting the task, Wei Sushen did not dare to ignore the source of the trouble and asked, "Why do you need to use the identity of the imperial physician?"

He originally thought that Fang Shan would appear at the flower viewing banquet as the daughter of a high-ranking official.

Upon hearing this, Fang Shan's smile changed from bright to terrifying: "Convenient."

Wei Sushen thought of something and asked for confirmation: "Where is the convenience?"

Fang Shan paused before saying, "There's nothing a bowl of medicine can't solve. If there is, then use two bowls."

Wei Sushen's expression changed slightly.

Worried that his words might frighten the host, Fang Shan tried to save his image: "The most important thing is, of the people who died unexpectedly during that time period, only this imperial physician was involved with the palace."

The explanation of the latter sentence is very weak.

Wei Sushen suddenly looked at him with a complicated look. Fang Shan keenly saw that there was something bad in his eyes. Just as he was about to speak, he shuddered.

His cold fingertips gently pressed against Fang Shan's brow. Wei Sushen smiled, a rare smile. "Too many conspiracies are boring. Do you want to try something different?"

Fang Shan blinked his eyes without saying anything, thinking that he had touched some button again, causing the progress bar of the person in front of him to turn evil to increase rapidly.

"Being an imperial physician is a good career." Wei Sushen took out the flash he carried with him and temporarily handed it to the system for safekeeping.

Fang Shan guessed what he was planning and squinted his eyes with a smile: "Alright, what's the difference between always harming people in the dark and being a rat in the gutter?"

It's time to embrace the sun!

The prince often had nightmares at night, and the eunuchs on night watch had to be extremely alert. But one day, he couldn't help but take a nap, and the palace door suddenly opened.

The young eunuch was startled and looked up to see the prince and Doctor Zhang walking out one after another.

Compared to the timidity when he entered the hall, Doctor Zhang now held his head high and chest out, like a proud rooster.

Looking at the prince again, he finally stopped wearing that gloomy expression that looked like someone was always trying to harm him. The young eunuch breathed a sigh of relief. If the master was in a good mood, the people below would also feel more comfortable.

Fang Shan followed Wei Sushen, wandering around openly, looking for a suitable target.

After finding nothing for the time being, he whispered, "It would be best to find someone with status."

Wei Sushen and he stopped under a big tree and slowly uttered a name: "Chen Yan."

The Chen family has been a military family for generations, with great military achievements. Chen Yan is even known as the "God of War" and will return to the court in three days.

"Military generals often have chronic illnesses," Wei Sushen said calmly, "If you can completely resolve these, you will soon become famous."

Fang Shan nodded to show that he understood.

"Also," Wei Sushen reminded, "Chen Yan has a keen sense of observation, so don't let anyone see through you."

Fang Shan continued to nod, looking well-behaved.

When Wei Sushen saw his expression, he felt something was wrong and almost held his shoulders like an old nanny, as if reminding him to cherish his life.

No, it is to cherish other people's lives and protect world peace.

Life in the Imperial Hospital was very leisurely. Emperor Chengyuan had few concubines, and the medicines used for daily conditioning had fixed formulas. As long as no noble was sick, the hospital was very idle.

Palace maids and eunuchs often fell ill in the palace, but unfortunately most of them managed to get through it on their own or rely on apprentices from the Imperial Hospital to give them some medicine.

Under a closed system, human life is worthless.

For many days in a row, the topic of conversation in the Imperial Hospital focused on Chen Yan. This young god of war was regarded as a protective umbrella.

Even without deliberately eavesdropping, Fang Shan could sense from his colleagues' words their admiration for Chen Yan, and felt a certain respect for him. This admiration was more inclined towards Emperor Chengyuan. At least in his current memory, Emperor Chengyuan had no intention of hiding his bow after the bird was killed.

On second thought, none of the surrounding small countries are peaceful. If something happens to Chen Yan, it will ultimately be the country's strength that will be damaged.

On the day Chen Yan returned to the court, Fang Shan was thinking about how to approach him when he was summoned by the prince.

After his worries faded, Wei Sushen resumed his normal routine, feeling much better. Because he was pretending to practice silent meditation, with a string of Buddhist beads hanging from his wrist, his otherwise handsome appearance took on a cold, stern quality, along with his stern demeanor.

Fang Shan pretended to be a servile servant and said with great trepidation, "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Wei Sushen raised his eyebrows and smiled. His acting was so realistic that it was no wonder he didn't recognize the person even though he was right under his nose.

Wei Sushen found an excuse to send the young eunuch away. Fang Shan saw that there was no one around and was too lazy to pretend anymore, so he started to talk about his plan.

Turning around the shade of the green willows, he caught a glimpse of Wei Sushen's tightly pursed lips: "Are you listening to me?"

Wei Sushen nodded, and then in a very calm tone, mentioned that he would sign up for an acting training class after returning home.

Fang Shan laughed. Is he addicted to collecting qualification certificates?

Wei Sushen: "Because I won't recognize you when you stand in front of me one day."

Fang Shan felt teased, but he joked calmly, "I'll give the host a tip... I must be the one with the softest waist and the most charming smile in the crowd."
