"Pooh!"
Physician Zhao spat again, this time on the other side of the face, giving the old man a symmetrical look.
The Minister of Works, a thin, old man, clenched his fists so tightly they cracked, startling Shen Congliang, who quickly took two steps back, fearing he would become an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire.
【Ah? Both sides, the crime is compounded! Confiscate their property! Seize their medical books!】
The emperor and his companions: ......
"Where did this stinking old man come from? Do you think I've never seen the Minister of Works before? The Minister of Works is in his prime. Even if you're trying to fool me, you should at least find someone respectable to come here!"
After the imperial physician finished cursing, it seemed he wanted to add another spit. Having learned his lesson twice, the Minister of Works dodged it this time with quick eyes and feet, but the spit he had just received was enough to make him feel disgusted.
The emperor and his entourage looked at Physician Zhao, wondering if he had made a mistake, when they heard the emperor's inner voice:
[The sworn brothers are indeed sworn brothers, but when this guy came to the capital to visit someone, he went to the wrong place and entered the home of the Minister of Revenue. Once inside, he kept calling him "Minister, Minister," and the Minister of Revenue had no idea he was actually visiting the Minister of Works!]
Well......
The emperor and his entourage looked at Physician Zhao and the Minister of Works with strange expressions, surprised that the two were actually sworn brothers, and speechless at Physician Zhao's self-righteousness in coming to the wrong place.
Shen Congliang's eyes gleamed with gossip as he asked the emperor, "Um...Master Huang?"
Approved!
Knowing what he wanted to say, the emperor waved his hand, and Shen Congliang quickly ordered his attendant to summon the Minister of Revenue. The attendant: ...
Alright! That's what we're here to do, running errands!
The attendant accepted the order and left.
The onlookers had already huddled in the corner trying to minimize their presence, so why were they calling for reinforcements?
The Minister of Revenue arrived a bit faster than the Minister of Works, after all, he was young, strong, and had good legs.
Similarly, the attendant only told the Minister of Revenue that the Emperor was here, and then told him to come over quickly.
So when he entered, the Minister of Revenue, like the Minister of Works before him, was bewildered by the room full of people. In the end, he accurately found the Emperor and quickly went over to call for help.
Then he noticed Chuanwen, Shen Congliang, and the Minister of Works standing next to the emperor, and his expression became even more bewildered.
Just then, an excited shout of "Minister of Works, you've arrived!" startled him. He turned around and saw a stranger shouting at him, looking as excited as if he were about to cry.
Who is this person?
The Minister of Revenue asked in surprise, and Physician Zhao's excitement froze on his face. He quickly said, "Minister, don't you recognize me? It's me! Physician Tian! Think about it, I just visited you a few days ago."
Physician Tian?
With this hint, the Minister of Revenue quickly remembered, because the name was very unusual; who would name someone a royal physician?
"Oh, it's you! What are you doing here...?"
The Minister of Revenue was puzzled when he saw that Wei Xiang had subdued him.
When Physician Zhao saw that the Minister of Revenue had finally remembered him, he was almost moved to tears. He quickly said, "Minister, please have them release me! These people came to my clinic for no reason, causing trouble and even hitting people. You must do justice for me!"
As he spoke, Physician Zhao shed tears of grievance.
The Minister of Revenue: ...
How could he, a mere minister, oppose the emperor?
Dude, have you lost your mind?
The Minister of Revenue just chuckled, but the others were stunned. Shen Congliang asked Physician Tian, "You said you are the Minister of Works' sworn brother?"
Imperial Physician Tian nodded arrogantly, but he harbored some doubts. He looked at the other party, wondering who they were, that they could summon the Minister of Works, and that the Minister of Works seemed quite respectful to them.
Shen Congliang then pointed to the Minister of Revenue, "You mean he's the Minister of Works?"
Doctor Tian nodded again, looking at the other person as if they were a fool. Wasn't it obvious?
Shen Congliang spread his hands, looked at the Minister of Revenue and the Minister of Works, and said with a smile, "Please explain, you two."
The Minister of Revenue and the Minister of Works exchanged a glance. Huh?
Minister of Revenue: "I am not the Minister of Works."
The Minister of Works said, "I have no brothers of different surnames."
Imperial Physician Tian: "???"
"What are you saying, Minister? Why aren't you the Minister of Works?"
Doctor Tian was completely bewildered. What was going on?!
The Minister of Revenue was puzzled by the resentful look from Imperial Physician Tian. "I am the Minister of Revenue, not the Minister of Works."
Imperial Physician Tian was completely bewildered. He looked at the Minister of Revenue, then at the Minister of Works, unsure how to express the resentment on his face.
In other words, he... he contacted the wrong person?!
Moreover, he just spat out two mouthfuls of thick phlegm at the real Minister of Works?!
At this moment, Physician Tian especially wished that time could be reversed. If God gave him another chance, he would definitely listen to his son and give up the habit of spitting on people as soon as possible and become a civilized person. If he had to put a time limit on this civilization, he would hope it would be ten thousand years!
Imperial Physician Tian stared blankly at the Minister of Works, then suddenly burst into tears, crying out, "Brother! I've finally found you, brother!"
Physician Tian used all his strength to break free from Wei Xiang's grasp, then collapsed at the feet of the Minister of Works, hugging his leg and weeping bitterly.
Doctor Tian's desperate shout silenced the entire hall. Though quiet, everyone was deeply moved and turned to look.
One was overjoyed to have found their loved ones, while the other was trying desperately to pull their leg out.
"Let go of me! Who's your brother?!"
The Minister of Works was furious. He was so angry he was about to die. This was outrageous! His belt was about to be ripped off!
