Chapter 80: There are always beauties trying to mislead me
The corner of Xie Yingmian's mouth twitched.
From the beginning to the end, she used Doctor Cui as a "gun".
Her purpose is simple.
One is to let Doctor Cui protect her identity.
Second, ask Imperial Physician Cui to help open a clinic.
As for giving the so-called information about poisonous insects to Imperial Physician Cui, it was just a promise to give Imperial Physician Cui more motivation to do things for her.
From beginning to end, she had a purpose.
The old man was so grateful that he wanted to take her as his teacher.
Xie Yingmian felt a little embarrassed by his sincerity and frankness.
"Doctor Cui, those things are nothing to me. You don't need to become my disciple..."
"No." Doctor Cui's stubborn temper came back.
"No merit, no reward. I must take the princess as my teacher."
"If the princess disagrees, I will never accept that information lightly."
Xie Yingmian asked, "There's such a huge age gap between me and Imperial Doctor Cui. How can I accept you as my apprentice?"
"Besides, those materials are just my gift to you as a thank you."
Doctor Cui said, "Between a master and a disciple, there's only skill, not age."
"The Princess's level of thought is higher than mine. Cui Yi has benefited greatly from today's conversation with the Princess. I will not suffer any loss by accepting you as my teacher."
"Please, Princess, please accept me."
Doctor Cui said this and was about to kneel down.
Xie Yingmian was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
This old man is really stubborn.
After thinking about it, Xie Yingmian came up with a compromise.
"Doctor Cui, please don't kneel yet."
"It's really not appropriate for you to take me as your master."
"How about this, I accept you as my master's disciple?"
"Let's call each other brother and sister. I'll call you Brother, and Doctor Cui will call me Sister. How about that?"
Doctor Cui never thought it could be like this.
How could he become the disciple of the Gu Saint in his lifetime?
My head was confused: "This, is not good?"
Xie Yingmian said, "There's nothing wrong with it."
"The information I'm about to give you originally came from Master. It's only right for you to take Master as your disciple."
"Master has disappeared, and we don't know whether he's dead or alive. Let's just assume he's dead. All we need to do is burn incense, offer some wine, and kowtow three times to him."
"Let's go outside and hold the apprenticeship ceremony."
Doctor Cui felt something was strange.
After thinking about it carefully, I feel that it makes some sense.
At least it is more reasonable than taking the princess as your teacher.
If he were to take the princess as his master, he, as the princess's disciple, would be a generation younger, and he would not be so confident if he tried to protect her.
It would be different if he was the princess's senior brother.
He is the elder brother, so it is natural for him to protect his junior sister.
The Xie family is unreliable, but his Cui family is very reliable. Anyone who dares to mess with the junior sister in the future will become an enemy of the entire Cui family.
Thinking of this, Doctor Cui gladly accepted the proposal.
The two came outside.
Xie Yingmian asked Fu Mo to bring three incense sticks and three bowls of good wine.
Light incense, drink wine, and pay tribute to heaven, earth, and the master.
The two of them kowtowed three times.
Xie Yingmian's ceremony of accepting a disciple on behalf of his master was officially completed.
Just like that, Doctor Cui became Xie Yingmian's senior brother.
Fu Mo was in a daze the whole time.
"Princess, what's going on?"
"How did you two become sworn brothers after just talking for a quarter of an hour?"
"Princess, if you want to become sworn brothers, you should find someone you like. Why would you choose a stubborn old man?"
Xie Yingmian corrected him: "It's not about becoming sworn brothers, it's about accepting a disciple for my master."
Imperial Physician Cui was very proud: "That's right, from now on, the princess will be my junior sister, Cui Yi."
Fu Mo was even more confused.
No, why did the princess accept a disciple for the master?
Who is the princess's master?
Did something happen in this quarter of an hour that he didn't know about?
When he wanted to ask a few more questions, Xie Yingmian and Doctor Cui had already left.
He was left alone in the mess of the wind.
After the apprenticeship ceremony, Doctor Cui had already treated Xie Yingmian as a family member.
"Junior sister, from now on the Cui family will be your mother's family."
"You must take some time to come back to the Cui family. Everyone in the Cui family welcomes you." said Doctor Cui.
Xie Yingmian chuckled: "Okay, I will definitely go."
Doctor Cui was very happy: "Also, regarding the location of your clinic, do you have any requirements?"
Xie Yingmian thought for a moment and said, "Since it's an affordable clinic, it can't be opened in a place where dignitaries gather. It's best to open it in a place where there are more common people, not too far away from residential areas."
Doctor Cui nodded and praised: "Not bad."
"Shangjing is divided into East District and West District."
"Dongcheng District is where the imperial palace is located and where dignitaries and wealthy people gather, while Xicheng District is where ordinary people gather."
"Xicheng District is divided into several districts, and the situations in these districts are different."
"My suggestion is to open the clinic in Hedu District. It's close to the docks and is home to many poor people. It's one of the most densely populated areas in Shangjing."
"Secondly, Hedu District is located in the center of West City, making it convenient for people from all over the area to come here."
"Thirdly, the river crossing is not too far from Prince Ling's Mansion, so it won't take too long for the princess to get there."
Xie Yingmian praised him endlessly.
Doctor Cui was indeed Doctor Cui. He solved her biggest headache, choosing a location, in no time.
"Okay, I'll listen to you, Senior Brother. I'll ask someone to go to Hedu to see if there's a suitable shop."
Doctor Cui waved his hand and said, "No need."
"I'm familiar with that place."
"Junior Sister, do you want to buy or rent?"
Xie Yingmian said, "Buy it."
"It needs to be bigger and more spacious. I don't know the market price, but the budget should be around 30,000 taels. If the location is good and the yard is nice, 40,000 taels would be acceptable."
Doctor Cui nodded: "Okay."
"Leave it to me."
"Places like the docks are full of people of all stripes, and strangers can easily be deceived. Leave this matter to me. I have some connections there, and I will definitely not let you suffer any loss."
The two of them hammered out some more details.
Soon, there was movement in the inner room.
Xie Yingmian stood up and said, "Maybe the prince has woken up. I'll go check it out."
Inner room.
Yu Lingye woke up as expected.
Under the candlelight, Yu Lingye lazily leaned on the couch.
His clothes were slightly open and his long hair was messy.
Her lips were pale and a little dry, and her face had an abnormal blush.
The mess did not affect his appearance, but instead added a fragmented beauty due to the blush.
The candlelight glowed softly, as if adding a warm light filter to Yu Lingye.
The noble, aloof and unattainable exiled immortal has added a bit of human touch under this filter.
He is not in a good mental state.
In the warm colors and smoke, in the hazy and soft colors, the sickly look has its own charming appearance.
Xie Yingmian was dazzled by the beauty of the filtered version of Yu Lingye.
It felt like something gently tickled my heart.
It feels itchy, and my heart of Tao is rippling.
Yu Lingye noticed Xie Yingmian's gaze and frowned, "Have you seen enough?"
Xie Yingmian's wandering Taoist heart was instantly recalled.
There are always beauties trying to mislead me!
She almost fell into Yu Lingye's trap.
