Chapter 64: The medical fairy’s father’s martial arts are invincible in the world!
Si Yuan stayed in the palace for a while, explained to Emperor Cheng Qian how his Imperial Master's Mansion should be built, and then returned to the Li family through the teleportation array at the entrance of Panlong Palace.
That’s right, it’s the teleportation array.
In this small world with thin spiritual energy, if Si Yuan wants to use the teleportation technique to teleport people, he will need to use his spiritual power, which is extremely consuming.
Of course, it was impossible for Si Yuan to spend so much money just to show off in front of Emperor Cheng Qian, so he secretly sneaked into the palace in advance and quietly set up a teleportation point in front of the Panlong Palace, just for today's show-off and to give Emperor Cheng Qian a big shock.
After all, it takes ten years of preparation to show your skill for only one minute in front of others.
In this small world with sparse spiritual energy, showing one's power in front of others is a technical job.
But the effect was still very good. At least when Emperor Cheng Qian saw that Si Yuan was able to teleport him from the Li family to the palace in an instant, he immediately became more respectful to him - after all, no matter how respectful you are to a strong man who can teleport behind you at any time to take your head, it would not be excessive.
Emperor Cheng Qian certainly didn't think that Si Yuan was lying to him. After all, Si Yuan was a powerful man who could teleport and assassinate the emperor at any time. What would such a powerful man want to achieve by lying to him?
What is Siyuantu? Of course, he wanted to gain the power to mobilize the imperial army with justification.
After Si Yuan returned to the Li family, Emperor Qian's imperial edict soon spread throughout the world, causing an uproar.
Who exactly is this national teacher who suddenly appeared out of nowhere? He is actually valued so much by His Majesty the Emperor and is given such great power!
Even the village where Si Yuan lived was renamed Liuxian Village, and Qingyun County, the county closest to the village, was also renamed Liuxian County.
It implies that real immortals live here.
All the civil and military officials in the court thought that Emperor Chengqian was so eager to have a child that he was defrauded by his middle-aged father. They wanted to shake Emperor Chengqian's shoulders and beg him to install an anti-fraud APP. There are no real gods in the world, they are all fake. Throughout the dynasties, there were emperors who were defrauded in their later years in pursuit of immortality and ended up taking elixirs to death.
Those emperors who died of erysipelas are all lessons for us!
However, the lesson that mankind has learned from history is that mankind never learns from history.
Emperor Cheng Qian had the same idea as those emperors who had been defrauded and died of elixir poisoning after taking it - the one I met this time must be a real immortal! I am the true dragon emperor, and I am definitely more favored by God than those unlucky people in the past!
Little did they know that all the emperors who died of erysipelas in previous years thought this way.
But Emperor Cheng Qian was indeed luckier than those emperors, because although the people he met were not true immortals, they were also cultivators with real abilities.
At least the pills that Si Yuan gave him were real pills made from herbal medicinal herbs. Taking them could really prolong one's life and rejuvenate one. Even if these pills contained pill poison, the poison would only affect Emperor Cheng Qian's cultivation speed. But Emperor Cheng Qian did not cultivate, he was just a mortal, so the pill poison was equivalent to nothing.
Originally, all the civil and military officials in the court wanted to protest against Emperor Chengqian in death, but at the first grand court meeting after Emperor Chengqian appointed the imperial preceptor, all the civil and military officials were speechless as they looked at the emperor who seemed to be ten years younger.
Emperor Cheng Qian, who was in his thirties and approaching forty, looked a little haggard because of his busy schedule for state affairs and hard work every night. The pressure of being childless for many years had turned his hair gray, and his body was not very strong.
But Emperor Cheng Qian, who came to court today, looked radiant and proud. His hair was jet-black and there was not a single wrinkle on his face. Even the wrinkles between his eyebrows caused by years of frowning had disappeared. His face was rosy and shiny, and he looked to be only in his twenties.
Many officials who witnessed Emperor Chengqian's ascension to the throne seemed as if they saw the high-spirited Emperor Chengqian who had just ascended the throne.
Emperor Cheng Qian looked ten years younger, and he said it was all thanks to the imperial teacher.
What else can the civil and military officials say? Do you really have to risk your own life to tell the emperor that the imperial tutor who makes your majesty ten years younger is a liar?
Not only did the emperor not believe this, even they themselves did not believe it.
The national teacher has real skills!
Therefore, all the civil and military officials who were still thinking about how to fight against fraud before going to court became eager, thinking that after the imperial master came to the capital, they must go to the imperial master's mansion to visit the imperial master, and maybe they could ask for the imperial master's help and make them ten years younger.
What’s the difference between being ten years younger and extending your life by ten years?
So at the grand court meeting, Emperor Cheng Qian once again mentioned the matter of building the Imperial Master's Mansion. No one in the court objected. The Minister of Revenue actively allocated funds, and the Minister of Works said that the matter of building the Imperial Master's Mansion would be handed over to their Ministry of Works. The Minister of Rites also joined in the fun and said, "Your Majesty, there has never been a precedent for welcoming the Imperial Master to the capital. I will definitely discuss the regulations for welcoming the Imperial Master with everyone in the Ministry of Rites, and I will never dare to neglect the Imperial Master..."
Emperor Cheng Qian was very satisfied that his ministers were so sensible and did not cause him any trouble at all.
Then, the happy Emperor Cheng Qian generously gave each of the ministers a cup of jujube leaf water. He said, "This is the immortal water made from jujube leaves given by the state teacher. Please try it, my dear ministers."
Several ministers looked at the water that was brought to them curiously, drank it all in one gulp, and then felt the warmth and comfort in their bodies. They were surprised and happy: "Your Majesty, I feel much better."
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I am old and frail, and I have always been sick. But today I don't feel any pain at all, as if I have returned to my youth..."
As the ministers expressed their feelings after drinking, the other officials looked at them with envy and jealousy.
Such a powerful magic water was actually given to them to drink. We also want to have a sip!
Then, they all looked eagerly at Emperor Cheng Qian who was sitting on the dragon throne.
Emperor Cheng Qian cleared his throat and said, "From now on, if you work hard, you will be rewarded."
Given hope, civil and military officials will certainly have more motivation to work.
At the same time, I became even more yearning for the mysterious national master.
Everyone hoped with one heart that the Imperial Master could come to the capital as soon as possible so that they could obtain some magical water or other benefits.
Therefore, the construction of the National Master's Mansion was completed quickly with everyone's concerted efforts. Everything was built according to the drawings given by Si Yuan. After completion, Emperor Cheng Qian sent someone to Liuxian Village to inform Si Yuan, and said that after Si Yuan confirmed the time to enter the capital, he would lead civil and military officials out of the city to personally welcome him.
Si Yuan: “…” He originally wanted to take his belongings and people and take the teleportation array to the gate of Panlong Palace without any other effort, but he didn’t expect that Emperor Cheng Qian would personally lead civil and military officials to welcome him.
This forced Si Yuan to agree and then go to the city gate of the capital overnight to set up a teleportation array teleportation point.
This time, he would teleport here with his people and belongings in front of all the civil and military officials to confirm his fabricated identity as a reincarnated immortal who had experienced many tribulations, so as to avoid many troubles and temptations in the future.
In the dead of night, when Si Yuan was setting up a teleportation point at the city gate, the system couldn't help but pop up and ask: [Host, why do you have to work so hard to set up the formation yourself? There are teleportation talismans in the system mall, which can be used even in this small world with thin spiritual energy. 】
The teleportation talisman is not a rare thing for Si Yuan. Si Yuan can draw the teleportation talisman himself in the Tiancang Realm, but drawing the talisman means using a special method to lock the weather spiritual energy into the talisman paper. When it is needed, tear open the talisman paper or activate the talisman paper to draw out the spiritual energy in the talisman paper and use the talisman.
But Si Yuan traveled through time with his soul, and couldn't bring the things he had in the Tiancang Realm to the small world after the travel. The small world's spiritual energy was too thin to support the talismans of the level he drew, such as the teleportation talisman. He had the ability to draw talismans but couldn't make powerful talismans.
However, there are similar items for sale in the system mall, such as the teleportation talisman, and the currency used to purchase goods is task points.
Si Yuan completed the tasks of two worlds and obtained quite a few task points, but he was reluctant to use them to buy other things. He used them all to buy affinity with the world.
After all, the higher his affinity with the small world, the more efficient he will be in comprehending the laws of heaven and earth in the small world, which is a major matter related to his cultivation.
Si Yuan continued to set up the formation and replied calmly: [If you give me the teleportation talisman from your system mall for free, I will use it. If you can't give it to me for free, then forget it. I don't have the money to buy it, so I'd better set up the formation myself. 】
System: [……] You are so stingy, host. I am reluctant to spend one quest point on a teleportation talisman.
However, the system has also seen how persistent Si Yuan is in improving his cultivation. He will spend any resources that are useful to him on aspects that are beneficial to his cultivation. He would rather spend more effort on other things than waste cultivation resources.
Because the spiritual energy was thin, it was difficult for Si Yuan to draw the formation. It was not because his formation-setting skills were poor, but because the spiritual energy was insufficient, which resulted in a low success rate in setting the formation. He had to try several more times before he could barely rely on his superb formation-setting skills to set up the teleportation formation.
After setting up the teleportation array, Si Yuan tried to teleport back to the Li family courtyard through the newly set up teleportation array.
Well, the test went smoothly and the teleportation array was successfully set up.
After Si Yuan was teleported back to the Li family courtyard from the gate of the capital, he saw Doctor Yu standing under two Fire Spirit Date trees, staring at him in amazement.
Si Yuan greeted the doctor calmly: "Brother Yu, why haven't you slept yet so late?"
Because I couldn't sleep because of my worries, I went out to enjoy the moon. I didn't expect to see Doctor Yu who had transformed into a living person in the yard: "...I can't sleep..."
Si Yuan nodded and said, "It is true that it is easy for people to have trouble sleeping when they are old."
The shock and disappointment in Doctor Yu's heart instantly turned into anger: "Who are you saying is old? Who are you saying is old? I sleep very well!"
Si Yuan said calmly, "You already call yourself an old man, why are you still trying to be so arrogant? Are you trying to tell me that you can't sleep because you have something on your mind?"
Doctor Yu was very thick-skinned: "Yes, I can't sleep because I have something on my mind."
Si Yuan has been busy for most of the night. Now I don’t want to pay attention to him and want to go back to sleep.
But Doctor Yu became excited and held Si Yuan tightly, refusing to let him go and insisting that he listen to his concerns.
Si Yuan said that he was not comfortable listening to the things that were on his mind.
Doctor Yu, who refuses to admit his old age, said, "You must listen to me. I must prove that I can't sleep because I'm worried about something. It's definitely not because I'm old and can't sleep well that I can't sleep!"
Then Si Yuan was pulled to sit on the stone bench where they played chess during the day, and listened to the chattering of Doctor Yu opposite him with a helpless look on his face.
"When I left the capital, I said I would never set foot in the capital again. Now you want me to go with you. Isn't this embarrassing for me?"
Si Yuan said calmly: "If you don't want to go to the capital, then don't go. You can stay here with Huang Bai."
Doctor Yu was unwilling to stay either: "What about my beloved disciple? Little Fuling was taken away by you, and I am left alone as an old widower. How can I survive?"
Huang Bai, who was not present, said: “…” Have I been expelled from the society?
Doctor Yu was determined not to stay.
Si Yuan was speechless: "So, Brother Yu, are you going to the capital or are you going to stay?"
Doctor Yu was also very conflicted: "If I knew whether I should go or not, I wouldn't be so conflicted that I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night. I ran out to admire the moon, but I saw that you had changed so much."
As Divine Doctor Yu told the story, Si Yuan finally learned about Divine Doctor Yu's true life story.
It turns out that Doctor Yu's family background is not ordinary. He is the younger brother of the current Marquis of Jing'an in the capital, but Marquis of Jing'an is the legitimate son of the second wife, while he is the legitimate son of the original wife.
The old Marquis of Jing'an had two wives. His first wife had a son, Doctor Yu, who later became pregnant with another child but died during childbirth. The old Marquis of Jing'an then married his first wife's concubine sister as his second wife.
It is very common that when the original wife dies, in order to maintain the in-law relationship between the two families, the original wife's sister is married to the brother-in-law as the second wife.
This was the case with the two wives of Marquis Jing'an. Their families also hoped to marry another daughter into the Marquis Jing'an Mansion to maintain the in-law relationship between the two families and to take care of Doctor Yu, the eldest son of Marquis Jing'an.
But Doctor Yu's stepmother was not an easy person to deal with. She secretly made Doctor Yu weak and sickly since childhood. She did not do anything like giving him medicine, she just asked the servants to be a little negligent towards her stepson, and the child naturally caught a cold. If the child was delayed for a while, the child would not die from the cold, but it would definitely make the child weak and sickly.
After that, the stepmother often gave Doctor Yu some snacks made of cold ingredients. It seemed that she was doting on the son left by her elder sister, but in fact, she was damaging her stepson's health without leaving any trace.
The old Marquis Jing'an was very worried about the frail health of his eldest son. How could such a weak and sickly son inherit the Marquisate? So when his second wife gave birth to a healthy son, the old marquis was overjoyed and trained the son as his heir.
As for Doctor Yu, the eldest son born to the original wife, he still loves him, but he no longer has high hopes for him.
When the miracle doctor grew up, his stepmother wanted to marry him to a wife who could take care of him - the daughter of an imperial physician who was skilled in medicine.
The old Marquis Jing'an thought that his stepmother was doing this for his son's good, so he agreed.
However, this did change Doctor Yu's future life path.
The wife that Doctor Yu married had inherited the medical skills from his father. Under his wife's care, Doctor Yu's health gradually improved.
Doctor Yu also studied medicine with his wife. He was really talented in medicine, or maybe he became a doctor because of his long-term illness. In any case, Doctor Yu's medical skills became more and more advanced in private. His wife said that there was nothing more to teach him and planned to recommend him to study further with her father.
Unfortunately, Doctor Yu’s wife died in the marquis’ mansion before she could take her husband to learn medicine from her father.
Seeing that she had ended up losing more than she gained, the stepmother wanted to let her eldest son from the original wife marry a woman who could not provide much help. However, she did not expect that she could cure his frail body, and the old Marquis Jing'an once again thought of letting his eldest son inherit the title.
The stepmother decided to go all out and planned to push Doctor Yu's wife into the pond in her house and drown her.
No matter how skilled Doctor Yu's wife was in medicine, she was just an ordinary woman. She could not save her own life if she was deliberately drowned.
Doctor Yu knew that the cause of his wife's death was not simple, because his wife could swim, and a person who can swim can swim out by herself even if she accidentally falls into the water.
How could he drown in the pond?
Doctor Yu went to the old Marquis of Jing'an to seek justice for his wife, but the old Marquis of Jing'an did not want to make a big fuss for a daughter-in-law, especially when Doctor Yu directly said that the murderer was the stepmother. The old Marquis of Jing'an thought about his healthy and intelligent second son and his stepmother who managed the mansion well, and his heart was biased.
She's just a daughter-in-law. At worst, I can just marry another one to my eldest son.
The daughter-in-law's family wanted to seek justice, but they were powerless against the powerful Marquis Jing'an Mansion. For the sake of their own family's peace, they could only accept the result helplessly.
Only Doctor Yu, who was deeply in love with his wife, wanted to seek justice for his wife. However, he did not know that even if the evidence was conclusive, his father would not scold his wife for the sake of a daughter-in-law.
If the eldest son, Doctor Yu, had died, his father might have scolded his step-wife for him, but it was impossible for him to give up his second son, whom he had high hopes for, for the sake of a dead eldest son. It was even more impossible for him to let his second son have a mother with a bad reputation. Most likely, his father would just scold his step-wife and then cover up his death.
In fact, this was indeed the case. When the genius doctor Yu went out to visit his father-in-law, the stepmother, who had killed her stepson and his wife without receiving any reprimand, became bolder and sent people to kill the genius doctor Yu.
Doctor Yu barely escaped his stepmother's assassination attempt, but he felt it was boring to go back home, so he simply gave up his name and traveled around as a wandering doctor, going wherever he went.
So there appeared a miracle doctor who was quite famous in the world, but no one knew his name.
Even when he insisted on living in the Li family, he only told Si Yuan that his last name was Yu.
But in fact, the surname "Yu" is his wife's surname. His original surname was "Hong", but he had long been completely disappointed with the Hong family of Jing'an Marquis Mansion and gave up the surname "Hong".
In order to remember his wife, and because he learned the medical skills from his wife, he called himself "Yu".
This is the family background of Dr. Yu.
The moment Doctor Yu gave up his surname and identity, he secretly vowed to never set foot in the capital again. He never wanted to see his former family who had made him so heartbroken again.
You should know that when he met Si Yuan, Doctor Yu was only in his fifties, but because of the hardships of life and the mental blow, most of his hair and beard had turned white.
The father of the current Marquis of Jing'an, Doctor Yu's biological father, the retired old Marquis of Jing'an, is less than sixty years old and still very healthy.
After listening to Doctor Yu's story of life, Si Yuan was completely indifferent. After all, he had witnessed even more tragic stories. No matter how miserable Doctor Yu was, could he be more miserable than those ordinary people whose families were broken up?
He even had the mood to complain: "So you will never set foot in the capital again, do you want to escape? Aren't you going to avenge your wife?"
Doctor Yu was speechless. He wanted to say that he was just a traveling doctor and that he had to fake his death to save his own life, let alone avenge his wife.
Decades ago, when his father had not yet passed the title of marquis to his younger brother, he was unable to take revenge. Now that his younger brother is in charge of the Jing'an Marquisate, how can he take revenge?
Si Yuan looked at the lost and pitiful look on Doctor Yu's face. He felt sorry for his misfortune and angry at his lack of fighting spirit. He really wanted to take revenge. With his medical skills, he could prepare some poisons, and then use his martial arts skills to sneak into the Marquis' Mansion and poison his good stepmother and good brother. Wouldn't that be revenge?
The reason why he didn't use this method to take revenge is probably because he still had some hope for his former relatives and couldn't bear to do anything cruel.
Si Yuan was actually a little annoyed by this kind of person who was so cruel yet couldn't be cruel enough, and couldn't let go of his hatred. He was too indecisive.
But Doctor Yu has known him for several years and has been good to little Fuling. In the original plot, it was Doctor Yu who raised little Fuling to adulthood. He felt a little reluctant to ask Si Yuan to completely ignore Doctor Yu's matter.
However, it is impossible to expect Si Yuan to spend all his efforts to help Doctor Yu. He will help other people's affairs if he can, but he will not do it if it requires him to spend too much energy and time.
Si Yuan said to the doctor calmly, "Brother Yu, why bother? As long as you return to the capital as my daughter's master, do not hide your past identity, and express that you give up your past identity and surname, and only want to walk the world with your wife's surname, I guarantee that the revenge you want will be achieved soon."
There is no need for Doctor Yu and Si Yuan to do anything extra, because there are naturally many people who are willing to please Doctor Yu and others around Si Yuan in order to please him, the national teacher, and then target people like Marquis Jing'an who have a grudge against Doctor Yu.
When the day arrived for Si Yuan to go to the capital as agreed with Emperor Cheng Qian, Si Yuan still had no intention of leaving. He only asked Doctor Yu and the others to pack up the things they wanted to bring to the capital.
