Zhao Shu was surprised that he agreed so readily and became somewhat suspicious. Seeing her curiosity, Emperor Mingde handed her the paper. She unfolded it and discovered that Physician Peng actually wanted a medical manual. No wonder Emperor Mingde agreed so readily, as Dayong still did not have a medical manual issued by the imperial court.
Physician Peng expressed his gratitude again, and Huo Baichuan also stood up and bowed to accept the order.
