Chapter 61 The princess is seriously ill
The sky is bright.
Gu Dan washed up, changed into a clean and tidy green robe, and after making sure that there was no more hostility and smell of blood on his body, he walked towards the Imperial Hospital as if nothing had happened, holding the tea that Gong Shangguo had given him.
Times have changed. The martial arts master now has the capital to dominate the world. He should not worry about someone plotting against him, but who is unlucky enough to provoke him.
He wants to live a peaceful life and watch the flowers bloom and fall in front of his door, but it does not mean that he will really become a stone Buddha or a clay figurine.
Being cowardly is not about being a coward. Being cowardly is about avoiding unnecessary troubles and meaningless fights, rather than having to smile when someone hits you in the face!
If a commoner gets angry, blood can flow for five steps.
What about the Grandmaster's wrath? The Imperial Hospital seemed very deserted in the morning, without the usual scene of many imperial doctors gathering together to exercise.
The thousand-year-old pine tree in the yard is still waving its body. After a night of rain, it looks even taller, more upright, and more verdant.
Under the thousand-year-old pine tree, Andy Hui was walking back and forth holding Cang, with a peaceful smile on his face.
"Uncle Xu!"
Gu Dan greeted him, ran over quickly, raised his hand with tea leaves and said with a smile, "Look, I brought you some good tea."
"Oh."
The smile on Xu Zhian's face disappeared in an instant. He glanced at Gu Dan indifferently and muttered, "Just tell me what's the matter?"
"Uncle Xu, what are you talking about? Isn't it normal for me to bring you something when I come to see you? If you like this tea, I'll get some more and bring it back to you later. Don't be so cold to me!"
Gu Dan stuffed the tea into Xu Zhian's hand without saying a word, and then carefully held Cang in his arms.
The little guy put his head close to Gu Dan's chest and sniffed.
The pale, chubby little face wrinkled immediately.
"Wow!"
Loud cries echoed throughout the Imperial Hospital in the early morning.
"Go! Go! Go!"
Xu Zhian quickly took Cang back into his arms and frowned, saying, "Even Cang despises you, don't you have any idea?"
Gu Danlue stood there somewhat awkwardly and could only smile and wait.
Xun Ke, who was standing by, rarely saw Mr. Gu being so down-to-earth. He secretly raised his head and didn't even look at the book.
After finally calming down the crying Cang, Xu Zhian rolled his eyes at Gu Dan and said dissatisfiedly: "If you have something to say, just say it quickly and don't get in the way!"
"Well, it's not a big deal actually. I just want to trouble Uncle Xu if he can help me find other internal breathing techniques from the Imperial Hospital?" Gu Dan lowered his head, followed behind Xu Zhian obediently like a child who had made a mistake, and said in a low voice.
"The art of inner breath? Don't you have a family tradition? What's the point of collecting that thing?"
Xu Zhian frowned slightly, "According to the information passed down by our ancestors, the progress of the Inner Breathing Technique is extremely slow. Although it can prolong life, it is difficult to achieve anything in a lifetime. It's just about enough. Don't waste your time on this kind of thing!"
"I'm just curious and want to try more. I won't mess around."
Gu Dan said affirmatively.
"All right."
Andy Hui nodded. Although the Imperial Hospital also had its own prejudices, the art of internal breathing was not something so extraordinary that it must not be passed on to outsiders. His old face could still be useful.
"Thank you very much, Uncle Xu!"
Gu Dan smiled. It was easier to get things done when someone was around. "By the way, where are the imperial doctors? Why is the Imperial Hospital so empty?"
"Do you think everyone is as idle as you are, and can just stay in the yard and not care about anything?"
With another big eye roll, Andy Hui said, "Now that the Taoist priest has run away, our Imperial Hospital will be busy. If any of the royal relatives or important officials in the court are sick, we have to summon them."
The vacancy left by the alchemists running away cannot be filled by the Mohists alone.
The Mohists were devoted to chivalry and justice, had superior martial arts skills and a strict organization, but their attainments in medical skills were far inferior to those of the alchemists.
This also made the Imperial Medical Bureau, which had been suppressed by the alchemists for more than 20 years, busy again. Many imperial doctors were so busy that they had no time to rest. However, Gu Dan was too inactive and too young to be in the Imperial Medical Bureau, so he could not keep his place in peace.
"I haven't been able to use you in the past few years, but you should be there in the future. I just heard from Prince Yu's Mansion that Princess Ying is seriously ill. Do you want to go over and see her? Xiaoyi is also there, so we have a relationship there, so it won't be a problem to get out safely. If you can cure her, leave this good relationship behind, and when you are needed for a consultation in the future, no one will dare to embarrass you."
After thinking about it, Andy Hui invited.
The position of the imperial physician is low, but the responsibility is heavy! Sometimes they have to bear the consequences even if it is not their fault, such as the imperial physician Pang Qi and Lin Yuyi, which were purely unprovoked disasters, and they could do nothing about it! No matter how good the medical skills are, without enough backing, they will die.
There is absolutely no logic in the medical troubles of this era. Some people are even killed simply because they think you are ugly.
"Princess Ying?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Gu Dan was stunned.
With his current martial arts skills, it doesn't matter to him whether he is the imperial physician or not. With his own strength, he doesn't need any false reputation to gild himself.
Just thinking back to the person sent by Xiaoyi who was hidden in the Jinyiwei to Prince Yu’s Mansion , Gu Dan nodded and said, “Okay, just call me when you go, Uncle Xu.”
"Well, you are too lazy. It would be great if you could be more enterprising now."
Before Xu Zhian could finish his words, Gu Dan had already taken Cang from his arms, grabbed the confused Xun Ke and ran out of the Imperial Hospital.
Andy Hui stood there in a daze.
After a moment, Andy Hui was so angry that his face turned red. He took off his shoes and threw them at the figure who was running away.
"Stop right there, you little brat! You're getting bolder. I'm not happy to hear a few words from you, right?"
However, the figure ran too fast, leaving him no time to continue showing his power, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Mr. Gu, my book! My book fell!"
Xun Ke, who was running out of breath, looked back repeatedly, his eyes full of heartache.
"If your book falls, I'll find a few more for you later. If someone else picks it up, there will be one more scholar in the world. There's no need to rush." After running for a long distance, Gu Dan finally stopped and said without blushing or panting.
"Then why did Mr. Gu run away?" Xun Ke was breathing heavily, with a look of dissatisfaction on his face.
"What do you know? If I don't run, Uncle Xu will nag me for most of the hour. If the imperial physician comes back and they all scold me, one or two hours will be the least of my worries!"
Gu Dan's face was filled with an expression of unbearable past memories, "When people get old, it's inevitable that they will nag. We should endure what we should endure and run away from what we shouldn't endure. This is experience and wisdom, don't you understand?"
While Xun Ke was being educated, yamen runners were seen passing by on both sides of the street, leading a large number of farmers with various tools and in tattered and rough clothes.
"Hurry up! If you delay, I'll beat you to death!"
The bailiff held a whip in his hand and shouted angrily.
