Thanks
Lin Yan quickly brought Zhong Ningning back to the Zhong Mansion. It was already dark at this time and everyone in the mansion had already gone to bed. Fortunately, he had informed Mrs. Zhou in advance and did not let her worry.
Zhong Ningning had fallen asleep on the way back. Lin Yan put Zhong Ningning on the bed, took off her clothes, and tucked her in.
The flickering candlelight illuminated Lin Yan's face. Lin Yan stared at Zhong Ningning's sleeping face and fell into thought.
The original reason why Zhong Ningning wanted to study medicine was actually because of Lin Yan.
At that time, Lin Yan took Zhong Ningning to travel around the world, doing justice and chivalrous deeds. They always encountered dangers, and injuries were inevitable when there were dangers.
Sometimes when the injuries were severe, Zhong Ningning couldn't stop crying just by looking at them, but there was nothing she could do.
Lin Yan would sometimes come across some rare herbs in the martial arts world and would always bring them to Doctor Zhao. Once, Zhong Ningning asked Doctor Zhao to teach her some medical skills. At that time, Zhong Ningning just wanted to treat Lin Yan's injuries.
Doctor Zhao readily agreed, and was pleasantly surprised to find that Zhong Ningning was quite talented in studying medicine, so he immediately accepted Zhong Ningning as his apprentice.
Zhong Ningning learned everything she could learn, and Doctor Zhao taught everything he could teach.
When traveling in the world, one often encounters people with strange diseases, and Zhong Ningning likes these very much.
One year, a plague broke out in the place where Lin Yan and his companions were traveling. Zhong Ningning left a prescription for curing the plague and told the local doctors how to treat it.
But no one believed the local doctor and insisted that Zhong Ningning treat them. Zhong Ningning was soft-hearted and insisted on treating the patients even though she was obviously exhausted and about to faint.
Another time, Lin Yan and his companion met a beggar who was looking for someone to save his grandfather. Zhong Ningning felt sorry for him and wanted to save him.
Lin Yan wanted to stop them at first, but seeing Zhong Ningning's sympathetic eyes towards the beggar, Lin Yan silently withdrew his hand.
After taking the beggar's grandfather's pulse, Zhong Ningning knew that his grandfather would not live long, but out of sympathy, she personally gave the medicine to the old man, which allowed him to live for another half a month.
But as soon as the old man died, the beggar suddenly exploded and questioned Zhong Ningning why she couldn't save his grandfather, saying that his grandfather was killed by her and asked her to compensate.
If Lin Yan had not arrived in time, Zhong Ningning would have been beaten by the beggar.
After Lin Yan captured the beggar, he took Zhong Ningning away.
Zhong Ningning remained silent along the way. Lin Yan sighed helplessly, turned Zhong Ningning's head to face him, and asked: "Are you sad about that person's ingratitude?"
Zhong Ningning nodded and asked in confusion: "Why? I clearly helped him, but why is he like this?"
"This is how the world is. People are treacherous. Sometimes less compassion means less danger." Lin Yan touched Zhong Ningning's head to comfort her.
Looking at Zhong Ningning's confused look, Lin Yan thought helplessly at that time: "Forget it, if there is any danger in the future, I will be here."
Lin Yan completely forgot that he originally wanted to use this incident to teach Aning a lesson, to be wary of unknown people and not to save people casually.
Lin Yan thought of the conversation between Zhong Yuxi and the system, and really didn't think it was a good thing for Aning's medical skills to become famous. When everyone knew that Aning's medical skills were good, it would only be a burden to Aning.
Aning is too soft-hearted. In the world of martial arts, kind-hearted people cannot stay long. This is why Lin Yan wants to drive her to her mother.
Another thing is that she can easily empathize with others and sympathize with others. Too many people know that her superb medical skills are only disadvantages and no benefits.
Lin Yan thought that everything from the time he came to Beijing until now was related to Aning.
At the beginning, if Aning saved Princess Yong'an, there would be no doubt that she would have the princess as a strong backer. Zhong Yuxi knew what would happen, so she wanted to seize Aning's opportunity.
If he had not gone to Beijing, Zhong Yuxi would have succeeded and seized Aning's luck.
And this time, if Zhong Yuxi's plan succeeds, Xu Zhitong will die in the Zhong Mansion, and the only grandson of Duke Xin will die in the Zhong Mansion. Even if the child is just playing around, even if the Duke Xin's Mansion does not punish him, it will still feel alienated and blame him.
Zhong Yuxi is so cruel and merciless at such a young age, and he is so cruel to a child.
According to the original development, if he did not go to Beijing, Zhong Yuxi did not intervene, and Aning saved Xu Zhitong, it might not be a good thing.
After all, if it is true as Zhong Yuxi said, and the news that Aning cured Xu Zhitong gets out, Doctor Mo in the Xin Guogong Mansion knows Aning's master, Old Zhao. If it gets out, it will only cause more trouble and even put his life in danger.
Fortunately, Zhong Yuxi was only afraid that Aning would become famous and would not think of this.
Given Aning's careless nature, if she hadn't reminded Madam Xu and Doctor Mo this time, the news would have spread out long ago.
Lin Yan thought of the letter that led him to Beijing. Although the person who delivered the letter saved him, it was still unknown whether he was an enemy or a friend.
But he must know a lot of things, and whether he can predict the future like Zhong Yuxi, or whether he has any conspiracy is still unknown.
However, Lin Yan subconsciously felt that the person who delivered the message should not be the same as Zhong Yuxi. After all, that person had saved her life three years ago.
If it weren't for that letter, she would have been dead or at least dead.
Lin Yan blew out the candle and went back to his room to rest, not thinking any more about it. There was still a long way to go, and there would always be a day when he would know the whole story.
A few days later, Mrs. Xu brought Xu Zhitong to the house in person.
Madam Xu and Madam Zhou were close friends, otherwise the Zhong Mansion, a residence of a Minister of Rites, would not have been able to invite the Crown Prince's wife. Because Xu Zhitong was in poor health, Madam Xu had never taken him out before.
That day, Madam Xu was worried about Tong'er because he had never been out, and Xu Zhitong kept begging, so Madam Xu took him to the Zhong Mansion by chance. She never thought that it would almost cause a disaster, but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise as she met two living immortals, Zhong and Lin.
Mrs. Xu was both afraid and relieved. If she had not brought Tong'er to the Zhong Mansion, Tong'er might never have recovered in his life.
Mrs. Zhou saw Mrs. Xu coming to greet them warmly, but when she heard her say that she wanted to see Ning'er, she was puzzled for a moment, and then sent someone to summon Zhong Ningning and Lin Yan.
After returning home three years ago, Zhong Ningning did not tell Mrs. Zhou that her master was the legendary Doctor Zhao, and that she could not tell anyone about her master.
Doctor Zhao is so famous that once his whereabouts are known, countless people will come to him for medical treatment, which may bring endless dangers.
Mrs. Zhou had always thought that her daughter knew some medical skills, but she only thought that she had learned some of them by chance while traveling around the world.
When they went to the Duke's Mansion that day, she just said that Madam Xu wanted them to stay at the mansion to play. Madam Zhou didn't think much about it and just thought that she wanted to thank Ningning.
Zhong Ningning and Lin Yan quickly arrived at the reception hall and greeted Mrs. Xu when they saw her.
Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Mrs. Xu took Xu Zhitong's hand and bowed solemnly to Zhong Ningning and Lin Yan: "Please accept our bow for saving my life."
Zhong Ningning was startled and hurriedly helped Mrs. Xu up with Lin Yan.
"No, no, no," Zhong Ningning said to Mrs. Xu.
Lin Yan didn't have time to stop Madam Xu from performing such a grand ceremony. He patted Zhong Ningning's shoulder and reminded her, "If I remember correctly, your mother shouldn't know about this."
Zhong Ningning's face froze and she turned to look at Mrs. Zhou who was still in shock.
Mrs. Zhou looked at her good friend showing such a great courtesy to her daughter and asked Zhong Ningning: "What happened? What life-saving favor? Was it the birthday party before? But it shouldn't be this serious."
Zhong Ningning knew she couldn't hide it anymore, so she said to Mrs. Zhou, "Mother, I will explain to you later."
When Mrs. Xu saw this, she didn't expect that Mrs. Zhou didn't know that her daughter had superb medical skills, so she apologized to Zhong Ningning.
"It's okay, it's okay." Zhong Ningning waved her hand. She didn't tell her mother at first because she had just arrived in the capital. She felt uneasy and didn't dare to tell her mother about her master. Now, even if she told her mother, she would not spread it out.
"My husband and the Duke wanted to come in person to express their gratitude, but since they thought you didn't want the news to get out, they stopped them. Please don't be offended." Seeing that it didn't affect her, Mrs. Xu continued.
"No, no need." Zhong Ningning thought of the two majestic faces of Duke Xin and his master whom she met at Duke Xin's mansion, and shook her shoulders.
Madam Xu took out a jade pendant and said to Zhong Ningning and Lin Yan, "This jade pendant is a token of the Xin Guo Mansion. If you need anything in the future, you can use this jade pendant to ask the Xin Guo Mansion to do anything."
Zhong Ningning didn't expect that Mrs. Xu could come up with such an important thing. She looked at Lin Yan for help in a panic.
Lin Yan gestured to Zhong Ningning to accept it. At first, Lin Yan didn't care about the jade pendant, but was always paying attention to Zhong Yuxi who was eavesdropping outside the door.
The moment Madam Xu took out the jade pendant, Zhong Yuxi's inner voice came: "This Duke Xin was originally a villain, but with this jade pendant, he will become one of the hero's greatest helpers."
Zhong Yuxi was so anxious that she wanted to stamp her feet at the door, but there was nothing she could do.
Lin Yan wondered who the male protagonist and villain were that Zhong Yuxi was talking about, but she had already left and could not hear anything.
Then Lin Yan looked at Zhong Ningning and said, "If you want to accept it, then take it."
This is probably Aning's opportunity, and everything is decided by Aning.
Finally, under Mrs. Xu's repeated requests, Zhong Ningning accepted the jade pendant.
Mrs. Xu was relieved to see Zhong Ningning accept it. Zhong Ningning was so kind, and it was the best thing for her to receive the jade pendant.
Mrs. Xu stayed at the house for a while, asked Zhong Ningning what should be paid attention to about Xu Zhitong's illness, and then left.
After Mrs. Xu left, Mrs. Zhou looked at Zhong Ningning as if she wanted her to explain.
Zhong Ningning organized her words and said, "Mother, I don't just know a little about medicine, I'm very good at it."
"Then why did you hide this from me?" Mrs. Zhou was puzzled by her daughter's concealment.
"Because of my master's identity..."
"Who is your master?"
"Master Zhao, the Divine Doctor of the Divine Doctor Valley"
The name of Zhao the Divine Doctor was not only well-known in the Jianghu, but also in the capital. Many dignitaries wanted to see Zhao the Divine Doctor.
Unfortunately, he is extremely mysterious and no information about him can be found.
After all, it is rumored that Dr. Zhao can kill people and turn flesh into bones. There is no disease in this world that he cannot cure.
Mrs. Zhou gasped and doubted her ears: "What did you say!"
The Zhou family is a medical family. Madam Zhou's father was a first-rank imperial physician. Otherwise, Madam Zhou would not have been familiar with Madam Xu. Unfortunately, Madam Zhou had no talent for medicine. She never thought that her daughter was so amazing and was actually the apprentice of Doctor Zhao.
Mrs. Zhou felt dizzy now. After a while, she asked, "How did you know Doctor Zhao?"
Zhong Ningning pointed at Lin Yan and said, "My sister's master and my master are friends regardless of age difference."
Mrs. Zhou didn't dare to ask too much about the identity of Lin Yan's master. At first, she thought that Lin Yan must be very capable since he could travel around the world with Zhong Ningning alone, but now it seems that Lin Yan's master is not an ordinary person either.
Mrs. Zhou held her daughter's hand tightly and said solemnly: "Don't worry, mother, I will never tell this to anyone."
Zhong Ningning shook Mrs. Zhou's hand and said with a smile, "I know mother won't tell anyone. I wanted to tell you this before, but I never had the chance."
Mrs. Zhou was deeply moved to see that her daughter trusted her so much.
