Chapter 154: Serving the King is Like Serving a Tiger



"Your Highness, your praise is unmerited. I am not as good as you say. Besides, curing illnesses and saving lives is the duty of every doctor. This is what I should do. I do not need Your Majesty's praise."

Gao Zhijun said modestly.

In fact, she would rather be given an official title than be rewarded by the emperor, even if it doesn't mean she has any real power.

As long as she holds an official position, no one will dare to take her things for themselves.

"Master, please don't be so modest. This operation can save many lives, so it's only right that the Emperor should confer you an official title."

Dean Tao was so anxious that he kept stamping his feet. How could his master be so blind? Only when he had power in his hands could he protect his things.

Master will soon become famous. If she doesn't have power, various forces will definitely try to recruit her and make her work for them. If she doesn't agree, they will definitely not let Master go.

"Okay, let's talk about this later."

Gao Zhijun felt that Mr. Tao was too unrestrained to ask for an official position on his own initiative. The emperor should give it to him voluntarily.

It is really unbelievable how a person like him can survive under the emperor until now.

Don’t you know that living with a king is like living with a tiger?

In fact, she didn't want to have anything to do with the royal family. The royal family's intrigues and open and secret struggles were too dirty.

If it weren't for protecting her clinic, pills, her family, and helping Jinqian build connections to facilitate his return to Beijing for revenge, she would not have had any relationship with the royal family.

"Okay, Master."

Tao Yuanzheng had no choice but to remain silent.

Gao Zhijun had a patient waiting for her, so she didn't talk to the prince and the others for long. She just said a few simple words and then went to see the patient.

On the other hand, the drawings and the curved plow sent by Magistrate Zhang have arrived in the capital.

Two personal bodyguards of Prefect Zhang came directly to the palace gate and handed over Prefect Zhang's token. The one guarding the palace gate was the captain of the Left Thousand Guards of the Jinwu Guard.

Upon seeing the token from Prefect Zhang, the Captain Zuo Qianwei immediately reported it to the Governor-General, who immediately took the token to the Commander of the Imperial Guards, and finally passed it to the Emperor.

The emperor looked at the Taizhou prefect's token, wondering if something had happened in Taizhou, after all, the prince was in Taizhou.

He did not dare to delay and immediately asked Eunuch Zhang to summon Magistrate Zhang's personal guard to meet him.

Eunuch Zhang entered the imperial study with two personal guards, who immediately saluted the emperor.

"Your humble servant pays homage to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor, long, long live the Emperor!"

"Stand up!"

The emperor waved his hand and said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The two guards stood up and stood aside.

"Zhang Zhifu sent you to the capital. Did something happen in Taizhou?"

The emperor asked anxiously.

His crown prince is still in Taizhou. If something happens, how will he explain to the queen?

"In reply to the Emperor, it wasn't an incident in Taizhou. It was because Divine Doctor Gao, Miss Gao Zhijun, created a farming implement. After our Lords used it, they were astonished. It was truly miraculous.

So, our Lord ordered us to hurry on with the farm tools and blueprints to deliver them to the Emperor."

One of Magistrate Zhang's personal guards reported to the emperor everything Magistrate Zhang had instructed him to do.

Hearing that it was not because of the incident in Taizhou, the emperor felt relieved and became very interested in this farm tool.

What kind of magical object could it be that Magistrate Zhang valued it so much that he asked his personal bodyguard to deliver it personally?

"Let me see, what kind of farm implement is it?"

The emperor said.

"promise!"

The two personal guards said.

Then, the guard who spoke took out the memorial and drawings that Magistrate Zhang sent to the emperor from his sleeve.

Eunuch Zhang took the memorial and drawings, placed them on the dragon table, and stepped aside.

The emperor picked up the memorial, read its contents, and was shocked.

Then he opened the blueprint, which showed the parts of a curved plow, and the emperor couldn't understand it.

"Where's the finished curved plow?"

The emperor asked the guards of Magistrate Zhang for a curved plow.

Another guard came out of the imperial study and carried in the curved plow that was placed outside: "Your Majesty, this is the curved plow."

The emperor walked down and came to the curved plow. He looked left and right, but he could not see what was special about this strange farm tool.

"Can you use a curved plow?"

The emperor asked the two personal guards of Magistrate Zhang.

"In reply to the Emperor, yes!"

The two said in unison.

"Okay, please follow me. I'll get you whatever you need."

When the emperor heard that they could use the curved plow, he immediately said.

"Your Majesty, all we need is a cow!"

A personal guard said.

Eunuch Zhang immediately went to find the cows, and the emperor brought two personal guards to the Zhonghe Hall of the Xiannongtan Temple, where the emperor personally ploughed the fields once a year.

Every March, the emperor would bring his ministers here to farm the fields himself.

Eunuch Zhang quickly brought an ox, and one of the guards harnessed the curved plow to it in front of the emperor, and then began to plow the land himself.

Thanks to the ox's pulling power, a small area was quickly plowed, leaving the emperor stunned and shocked. He wanted to use the curved plow himself and asked the guard to teach him.

When he held the plow handle and the curved plow was pulled by the ox, plowing the land lightly and quickly, he was so excited that he almost couldn't hold the curved plow.

With this magical agricultural tool, the wasteland in Daliang will no longer be reclaimed, and the people of Daliang will no longer have to worry about not being able to grow more food, nor will they have to worry about not having enough to eat.

He quickly plowed the emperor's one and a half mu of land. He was still not satisfied and wanted to plow some more, but unfortunately it was already plowed.

The emperor asked Magistrate Zhang's personal guard to take the curved plow back to the imperial study, and then asked Eunuch Zhang to take them out of the palace to make arrangements. Tomorrow he would let the ministers try the curved plow themselves.

After Gao Zhijun had the operation, she has been receiving treatment in the emergency department.

She treated all the difficult and complicated diseases, and later admitted several patients who needed to be hospitalized.

I was busy until the evening, then closed the clinic to rest.

Because it was too late and everyone was too tired, they did not return to Huojia Village today and stayed in the yard in the east of the city.
