Chapter 26: In Qingfeng Temple
Qingpingzi, a popular figure around the emperor.
The emperor's favor is far more useful than any official position or qualifications.
It's just the relationship between the Imperial Medical Bureau and the alchemists. It's a bit inappropriate to say that they don't interfere with each other. We can only say that they will never have any contact with each other until they die.
"My dear seniors!"
Seeing that the noise was getting more intense and there was already a hint of violence, Gu Dan had no choice but to shout loudly.
Many eyes gathered in response, and the anger and sadness could not be hidden in the bloodshot eyes.
At this point, not only is the Imperial Medical Bureau likely to face punishment from the Emperor, but how can everyone not feel anything about what happened to the Imperial Physician Pang Qi and Imperial Physician Lin?
It is difficult to be an imperial physician. What is difficult is not the medical skills but the human heart.
Even if one's medical skills reach the pinnacle, it is still difficult to resist that golden mouth and lose one's life and property.
The anger in this quarrel was caused by the fact that they had no way to deal with the Third Prince, and they were unable to protect themselves, so they could only vent their anger on each other.
"Blindly arguing won't solve the problem. Since all the seniors have their own ideas, why don't we all work together? We can find anyone we can, no matter if they are useful or not. We can still try to save a dying horse, especially since things haven't developed to that point yet."
Gu Dan had a stern face, clenched fists, and spoke in a deep voice.
"Yes, you might as well be worse off than Gu Dan! What's the point of arguing here? Go find someone! Who doesn't know about the medical skills of Imperial Physician Lin? Back then, General Zhenbian was seriously injured and dying, and it was Imperial Physician Lin who saved the day. How could he be a mediocre doctor?" Andy Hui immediately echoed and separated the people who were about to fight as if they were chasing them away.
Without the backbone of the Imperial Physician, the Imperial Medical Bureau was leaderless.
The top priority is definitely not internal friction, and anger cannot be vented on our own people. We must first find a way to resolve this matter.
"Uncle Xu, I'll go find someone to try too."
After watching everyone scatter in the face of Andy Hui's angry curses, Gu Dan said.
"Who can you find?"
Andy Hui was surprised. It was common for old imperial doctors like them to have some connections and could at least have a say in front of the emperor.
But Gu Dan is so young, how can he meet any expert?
"The alchemist, Qingpingzi." Gu Dan said bluntly.
"he?!"
Andy Hui frowned at first, then he reacted.
If you want to find someone to speak for the Imperial Medical Bureau, Qingpingzi is indeed the most suitable person.
"How confident are you?" Andy Hui asked.
"As the old saying goes, try your best to save a dying horse. It's just a thought."
Gu Dan couldn't promise anything. The last time he met Qingpingzi, Moqiu was ready to fight with him.
It is completely unknown whether the other party is willing to help.
But if he doesn't go, there will be no possibility for him to speak for the Imperial Medical Service.
"I called you here because I wanted you to comfort Xiaoyi."
Andy Hui frowned slightly. If they really needed help, they were not at the point where they would ask their child to beg for help.
Gu Dan was slightly stunned when he heard this.
Then he realized that the saddest person in the entire Imperial Hospital was probably Lin Xiaoyi.
In addition, he and Xiaoyi can be said to be "suffering from the same disease" to some extent, so it is no wonder that Andy Hui thought of calling him first.
"Qingfeng Temple is not far away, and it won't take much time to go there." Gu Dan insisted.
It is not his character to sit and wait for death.
Xu Zhian's eyes flashed with disappointment, and he nodded and said, "Then you should go quickly and come back soon. It doesn't matter if the matter cannot be accomplished. The Imperial Hospital will not collapse."
After he finished speaking, he turned and left without waiting for Gu Dan to reply.
The back figure looks desolate and lonely.
Losing two close friends in a short period of time must have been a blow to him .
The current emperor loves to seek immortals and ask for the way, and he especially likes alchemists, which naturally attracts people from all walks of life to follow suit.
Taking advantage of the situation, Taoist temples sprang up one after another and became very popular.
The most famous of them is definitely the Qingfeng Temple in the imperial capital.
As a Taoist temple that has been favored by the emperor for ten years and has great grace, it covers an area of more than ten thousand square meters in the imperial capital. It attracts a constant stream of tourists, and countless dignitaries and wealthy families come here to burn incense every day.
It was Gu Dan’s first time here, but he didn’t have time to appreciate the scenery.
The matter of the Third Prince is extremely urgent. We must find someone to help deal with it before Emperor Zong Ming speaks out, and try to avoid affecting the Imperial Medical Bureau.
Qingpingzi once said that we could come to Qingfeng Temple to find him, but he never said where he lived in Qingfeng Temple.
He had no choice but to follow the flow of people forward. Although it was not a festival, the flow of people in Qingfeng Temple was almost shoulder to shoulder, so he could only move forward slowly.

Not long after, Gu Dan finally had the opportunity to take a breath, wipe off the rouge that had been rubbed onto his face, and looking around, he finally saw an old Taoist interpreting divinations for someone, so he hurried over.
"Since the donor is seeking a marriage, do you have someone in mind? Or do you have any requirements?"
As I got closer, the Taoist's voice could also be heard.
The girl who asked the question looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old. She was quite pretty. She was accompanied by two maids with their hair combed. They were holding flower baskets and staring at Gu Dan without blinking.
"I don't have anyone I like, but my requirements are not low!"
The girl raised her chin and said seriously, "Let's not talk about anything else. He must be at least seven feet tall, eight feet is better, with a decent appearance, well-read, and a family with a long history of learning. He must also hold an official position. It's fine if he's lower than the seventh rank, but he must be an official in Beijing. Oh, and the family can't be in business, and it's best if he's the eldest son."
The old Taoist's smile froze, and he said with a fake smile: "If you want to make a wish, you can go to the temple."
"you"
The girl was furious and was about to refute, but the maid behind her secretly reached out and poked her, signaling her to look back.
The girl glanced back, her eyes shining with a strange light.
"I've heard that wishes made at Qingfeng Temple are very effective. My mother really didn't lie to me!" The girl was overjoyed and pointed at Gu Dan, "It's not that other conditions can't be met, but just looking like this will do!"
"Are you worthy enough?"
The old Taoist rolled his eyes secretly and was too lazy to pay any more attention to her.
"Master, may I ask where Qingpingzi is?"
Gu Dan gave an apologetic smile, not wanting to cause any trouble, and asked directly.
"Oh? You have something to ask me?" The old Taoist stared at Gu Dan for a few seconds. "There are many people who want to see me every day. Do you have any proof?"
"Gu Dan from the Imperial Hospital is here to visit. Qingpingzi once said that we can come to the temple to find him. Please let the Taoist priest know!" Gu Dan said seriously.
"Oh? Are you the guy who took the elixir of the sages and survived?"
The old Taoist showed a strange look on his face. After a moment, he realized that he had said something wrong and said, "Well, I mean that you are very lucky and have a predestined relationship with our ancestors."
"Please hurry up, I have something urgent to do."
Gu Dan's face darkened, but he had no choice but to accept it since he was asking someone to do him a favor.
"Then you wait here for a while, I'll go find my junior brother."
The old Taoist flicked the whisk in his hand and walked away quickly without any delay.
The girl who was originally looking for a marriage partner came up to him and asked excitedly, "Your name is Gu Dan? You are from the Imperial Hospital, right? Do you have a crush on someone? What do you think of me?"
