"You look down on people!" Jiang Yuzhe spat at his back and cursed him harshly.
Mu Hanyan smiled slightly. Although she looked down on others, she still had to be qualified. This at least showed that the Yan Mansion was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
However, if even a doorman is so arrogant and domineering, his owner is probably not very friendly either. It may not be easy to ask him to take action.
"The master lets you in." Soon, the doorman came back and said to Mu Hanyan and others with an arrogant look on his face.
Mu Hanyan noticed that he said "let" instead of "please", and obviously did not take them seriously. However, she did not want to argue with a servant at the moment, so she helped Zirong into the Yan Mansion.
When they entered, everyone was greatly surprised. The area of Yan Mansion was much larger than it looked from the outside, and there was no sign of dilapidation at all. The carved railings and painted buildings were exquisite and even more luxurious than the Princess's Mansion.
No wonder people say that it is better to hide in the forest than in the world. Mu Hanyan suddenly felt that not everyone can hide in the world like this.
Following a maidservant inside, I could faintly hear the sound of loud conversation.
"Sir, the guests have arrived." The maid pushed open the gate and said respectfully.
The conversation inside stopped abruptly, and the four old men who were chatting and laughing turned their heads at the same time.
"You are the descendant of the Sun family, right?" An old man looked at several people and finally stopped his gaze on Doctor Sun's face. He asked lightly. Judging from the seating arrangement, he should be the head of the Yan family.
"Junior greets Senior Sun." Doctor Sun said respectfully.
"You don't deserve to be called a senior. I heard you're also known as a great doctor in Anyun, so you should be of the same generation as me. My name is Yan Zishu. If you respect me, you can call me Old Yan, or just my name," the old man said. Although his words were extremely polite, everyone could hear the coldness in them that kept people at a distance.
"Doctor Yan is at the mercy of fate. The Yan family's medical skills are unparalleled in the world. What qualifications does he have to be on par with you?" another old man said anxiously.
"A miracle doctor? What kind of miracle doctor can Anyun Country produce? If he is of the same generation as you, people will laugh their heads off when the news gets out." Another old man echoed.
Yan Zishu smiled without saying anything, and glanced at Doctor Sun from the corner of his eye, but there was an obvious sense of pride in his expression.
Mu Hanyan frowned. It seemed that Yan Zishu and these old men disliked Doctor Sun very much. They gave him a cold shoulder as soon as he came in and showed him no mercy at all.
Doctor Sun hadn't expected the other party to be so ruthless. He immediately started to mock and ridicule, and his face flushed with shame. However, he knew that he was far inferior to Yan Zishu in both medical skills and reputation, and he still needed help, so he could only suppress his anger.
"Tell me, why have you traveled thousands of miles from Anyun Capital to Shangyue Capital?" Yan Zishu probably felt that humiliating a junior was not a glorious thing, so he asked straight to the point.
"My friend has been poisoned by the Thousand Poisons Erosion Meridian Powder, and I would like to ask Senior Yan to save his life." Doctor Sun knew that time was running out, so he didn't exchange pleasantries with him and spoke directly.
"If you want to save his life, you can use your Sun family's ancestral technique of splitting tendons and cutting meridians, and find a master who is more proficient in the art of sealing than a sword saint, and add someone who is strong enough and willing to take risks for him. You should be able to do it, right? Why come to me?" Yan Zishu looked at Zirong who was supported by everyone and said coldly.
The method he mentioned was exactly the method that Mu Hanyan and others used to treat Yu Qingwan. Although she did not have a good impression of the old man because of his arrogant expression, Mu Hanyan still had a higher opinion of his medical skills after hearing him say this method without thinking.
"We have already tried the method you mentioned. He is the one who risked his life to seal the poison. However, an accident occurred a few days ago, causing the seal to fail. Please, Senior Yan, save his life." Doctor Sun said with a wry smile.
"I'm sorry, but I have no other choice. Please seek help from someone else. Please see you off." Yan Zishu said, holding up the teacup.
From the time Mu Hanyan and others came in until now, he had not invited them to sit down, nor ordered anyone to serve tea, and he had not even asked their names. Now he just served tea and sent them away. It was obvious that he looked down on them to the extreme.
"Senior Yan, please think of another way, even if it's just to suppress the poison temporarily and save his life first." Although Mu Hanyan was a little unhappy, she couldn't just ignore Zirong's life or death and get angry at herself, so she suppressed her anger and said to Yan Zishu earnestly.
"That's easy for you to say. Come up with a solution and let me see." Yan Zishu snorted coldly and scolded, "Your master hasn't said anything yet. Do you have the right to speak here?" It turned out that he mistook Mu Hanyan for Doctor Sun's disciple.
"Senior Yan, she is not my disciple." Doctor Sun quickly explained.
"If he is not a disciple, then he is a servant. How dare you be so rude? Is this how your Sun family disciplines servants?" Yan Zishu was even more contemptuous when he heard this.
"No, she is not either..." Doctor Sun continued to explain.
"Forget it, forget it. I don't care who she is. I can't save her anyway. You should seek help from someone else. Please get out." Yan Zishu picked up the teacup again. It was obvious that he had no good feelings towards Doctor Sun. He was lucky enough to see him out of respect for being a fellow doctor. He had no interest in saying anything more to him.
"Senior Yan, I have read the notes left by my ancestors. I know that the Yan family has a method of using elixir and stone. Even if the poison of Thousand Poisons Gold-Eroding Powder cannot be cured, it can still protect his life. Please save his life. I will be very grateful." As a doctor, Doctor Sun is also very proud. If it were in the past, he would have walked away long ago, but he was compassionate and could not bear to see Zirong die from the poison, so he endured it and said pleadingly.
"What's the point of our Yan family's alchemy method? Remember that medical and alchemy event a thousand years ago? Our Yan family was defeated by your Sun family and became a laughing stock in the medical and alchemy world. You couldn't even save people, so what can I do? Our Yan family has been hiding in the market all these years, just to let future generations not forget the past humiliation and endure new hardships. To be honest, it's all thanks to your Sun family." Yan Zishu said with a sneer.
After hearing this, Mu Hanyan finally understood. When she saw Yan Zishu being so arrogant and cold towards Doctor Sun, she thought it was because Shangyue and Anyun had too deep a grudge against each other. Only then did she realize that it was because the Yan family had been defeated by the Sun family in a competition thousands of years ago.
With the reputation of the Yan family as a family of miraculous doctors, they suffered such a setback that they were naturally ridiculed. From that time on, the Yan family began to live in seclusion. Although this kind of secluded life was more comfortable than that of many princes and relatives of the royal family, it was no longer as glorious as before. Naturally, the descendants of the Yan family did not have a good face towards the people of the Sun family.
This Yan Zishu is really narrow-minded.
