Chapter 377: It’s a piece of cake. At any other time, Xu Yunfan would definitely…
At any other time, Xu Yunfan would have refused. He wasn't a doctor, so why would he risk being beheaded? However, at Fu Qingyu's suggestion, Xu Yunfan touched the tip of his nose and said, "Since Your Majesty has said so, I will give it a try."
"Second Prince, please extend your right hand." Xu Yunfan changed his seat and sat next to Jiang Zhongnian, and began to perform in a pretentious manner.
Jiang Zhongnian blushed, too embarrassed to look directly at Xu Yunfan. He glanced at him secretly with a guilty conscience. His heart was pounding, and his ear canals were filled with the sound of strong and powerful heartbeats. He never knew that his fragile heart could be so energetic one day.
Xu Yunfan knew some medical skills. He looked at Jiang Zhongnian and said, "Second Prince, relax. Don't be nervous."
"Well, I'm not nervous." Jiang Zhongnian was not nervous. It was a normal reaction for him to have his heart beat faster after seeing a handsome guy.
Xu Yunfan: “…”
Aren't you nervous? Your heartbeat is usually this fast!?
"What kind of discomfort does the Second Prince usually suffer from?"
Jiang Zhongnian's mind was full of handsome guys at the moment. Jiang Zhongsi, who was standing by, was furious and embarrassed when he saw his younger brother looking like a young man in love. Jiang Zhongnian was like a boar seeing a peerless beauty, and he brought shame to Dayan.
Jiang Zhongsi couldn't bear to look at his younger brother, so he could only look at Xu Yunfan. "My second brother has often suffered from chest tightness and dizziness since he was a child... Master Xu, you must have noticed something."
"I believe the Emperor and Empress Qi must have consulted the imperial physician about the Second Prince's condition. He has a heart attack."
Jiang Zhongsi nodded, without any more excitement in his eyes, "Yes, the disease that my second brother suffers from is indeed a heart disease."
Even if you are not a doctor, anyone who knows something about heart disease can guess what it is after listening to what he said.
Fu Qingyu frowned and thought to himself, it seems that it is not easy to get favors from Da Qi.
Xu Yunfan retracted his hand. "Well, heart disease is called a heart attack in our area. The Second Prince's heart disease is not too serious. Currently, there are two ways to treat it. One is medication, and the other is to remove the root cause of the disease once and for all. Medication treatment will be very troublesome. After all, only the country I used to live in has such medicine, but Dayan and Daqi don't have it. So, if you want to treat it, I suggest taking the second approach."
Brother Jiang Zhongsi was dumbfounded.
No, the heart disease that had troubled them for over a decade, that had made them visit many famous doctors with no success, was solved so effortlessly by Xu Yunfan??!!
Who would believe this if I told them?
Jiang Zhongsi wanted to slap himself so that he could wake up and see if he was dreaming. "Master Xu, this is a heart disease. Can it be cured?"
You are kidding me!
"Why not?" Xu Yunfan shook his head and sighed at Jiang Zhongsi, "Young man, your horizons are still too narrow. You must know that the world is so big and full of wonders. The Second Prince's heart disease is not that troublesome. With me, a simple operation can solve it."
"Use a knife?" Jiang Zhongsi was so excited that he wanted to slap himself, but now he felt that Xu Yunfan's words sounded so unbelievable.
Damn it, isn't this just kidding them?
That's a heart. Who can survive if their heart is stabbed by a knife?
This is something I have never heard of or seen before.
Xu Yunfan took a piece of cake and ate it slowly. Sleeping was also a physically demanding activity. He was hungry. "That's right, it's about using a knife."
"But, that's the heart. Can the patient survive if surgery is performed on the heart?" Jiang Zhongsi felt that either Xu Yunfan was crazy or he was stupid. Xu Yunfan spoke so confidently and nonchalantly, but he was still foolishly asking for confirmation. If this wasn't madness, then what was?
Fu Qingyu: "My dear, are you serious about this?"
"Hey, Your Majesty, even if you give me a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare to make such a boast in front of you and the two princes. Your Majesty, my second sister is a doctor by profession, and her specialty is this. To her, the Second Prince's situation is really just a piece of cake."
Xu Yunfan is not crazy. At this time, he would not brag about something he is not sure about.
This kind of thing can be fatal if you are not careful, and may even wipe out your entire family.
This matter was no small matter. In order to be on the safe side, Fu Qingyu had to seek Xu Yunfan's opinion and summon Fang Erjie into the palace.
Seeing this, Jiang Zhongsi couldn't help but become curious about Xu Yunfan. It seemed that this Master Xu had an extraordinary status and position in Dayan, and even Emperor Yan had to give him some face.
When Second Sister Fang was invited into the palace by Eunuch Fu, Xu Yunfan was sitting next to Jiang Zhongnian. No one knew when it started or what topic the two of them started talking about. Jiang Zhongnian laughed like a drake, which made Fu Qingyu and Jiang Zhongsi tremble with fear.
Jiang Zhongnian, who was shy just now, now with Xu Yunfan, their relationship is like brothers who haven't seen each other for eight hundred years. They are so close that they can almost wear the same pants.
After Fang Erjie paid her respects and learned the purpose of Fu Qingyu sending someone to call her to the palace, Fang Erjie, who was given the title of miracle doctor by Xu Yunfan, had to bite the bullet and let Jiang Zhongnian examine her.
Jiang Zhongsi, who was standing aside, looked at Fang Erjie and secretly felt sorry for her. It was such a pity that such a good person had married another man.
"Second sister, what's going on? Is the Second Prince having a heart attack?"
"Yes, you're right." Second Sister Fang nodded, and then carefully asked Jiang Zhongnian about his usual discomfort. "Second Prince, your heart disease was indeed a serious problem before you met me. The doctor said that you... were not incompetent, but after meeting me, these are just minor problems."
Fu Qingyu: "..."
Is this a lack of humility inherited from the Fang family?
Jiang Zhongsi suddenly became excited, "Mrs. Shen is really sure that she can cure my second brother's heart disease?"
"Of course." Despite being questioned, Second Sister Fang showed no sign of displeasure. "As a doctor, I do have this professional ethics. If I'm not sure, I won't brag. Moreover, one of my main areas of focus is in this area. But I also need to make it clear to Crown Prince Qi... Whether I'm sure or not, it's risky. Not to mention, conditions are limited right now. I can't guarantee you 100%, but I can promise that I will do my utmost to save every life. Whether that person is the Prince of Great Qi or the Prince of Great Yan, in my eyes, there's no difference. You can discuss this with the Second Prince. I'll make arrangements after you've considered it carefully."
"Brother~" Jiang Zhongnian was extremely anxious. Along the way, he seemed very calm, as if he didn't care about these things, but in fact, he was just pretending.
He was afraid that he would come with high hopes, but end up disappointed like every time before.
He was afraid that he would be too disappointed, which would be a torture for Jiang Zhongsi. Now that he saw hope, Jiang Zhongnian did not want to give up. He wanted to be like other people, able to ride a horse and jump around, instead of being like a porcelain doll.
Jiang Zhongsi patted Jiang Zhongnian's hand and said, "Don't worry, second brother, calm down and let me think about it. There's no need to rush. I need to think about this carefully."
Xu Yunfan left the palace with Fang Erjie. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when they entered the palace, and it was already seven o'clock in the evening when they left the palace.
The setting sun was blood-red. The brother and sister stood outside the magnificent palace walls, looking at the ancient capital city, and inevitably felt dazed for a moment.
It seemed like in the blink of an eye, he had been here for three years.
In his memory, the time when he followed Qin Run to harvest corn on a hot summer day seemed to have happened just yesterday.
Along the way, Xu Yunfan thought carefully and realized that he really had not been able to accompany Qin Run properly. It was just the two of them going out for a walk together. People who got married had a honeymoon period of more than ten days or a month.
But he didn't!
"What are you thinking about?" Sister Fang walked a few steps and saw that the person behind her had not caught up. She couldn't help but look back and saw that Xu Yunfan was actually in a daze.
Xu Yunfan sighed and said, "I'm thinking about my husband, second sister, you don't understand."
Second Sister Fang: "...I don't understand you, you idiot. It's only been a short while since we last met, and you're already missing Run Ge'er? Why are you still acting like a baby who hasn't been weaned?"
"Listen, I told you you don't understand and you still don't believe me, but I miss my husband, what does that have to do with whether I'm weaned or not? Second sister, you all have time to play after you get married, but I don't."
Xu Yunfan's words were filled with resentment. "The Second Prince of Daqi said there are several magical places in Daqi, including waterfalls that fly backwards, lakes where the water and sky merge into one, and a sea of flowers that stretches ten miles. In short, there are so many fun places. If I have time someday, I'd like to take Runge'er there to see them, just the two of us."
Seeing Xu Yunfan's longing look, Second Sister Fang felt distressed. Her little brother had never wanted for anything since he was a child. He was obviously the little darling of the family. He knew that both families doted on him, but he never made any excessive demands and was always very well-behaved and obedient. "After the Dashang matter is settled, you can take Run'er with you if you want. Big sister and I will take care of the business matters for you. You can have fun with Run'er."
"Second sister, are you serious? Run'er's business is huge, and it's not easy to manage. It will be very tiring. I guess my brother-in-law won't be willing to let him go."
"You still don't trust your sisters. Although we didn't study management, we still know a little bit. You are my brother and you want to make up for your honeymoon with Run Ge'er. If I don't help you, who else can I help?"
"Second sister, you are so nice, I love you so much." Xu Yunfan reached out to hug her.
Second Sister Fang walked back in two steps and let Xu Yunfan hug her. Then she patted Xu Yunfan on the back and said, "Second sister loves you too, dear. You are the only brother among the sisters. Even if I get married, I will love you the most."
"Yunfan, second sister." Qin Run saw the two people hugging each other from a distance. He quickly looked around and was relieved when he found that there was no one else around.
In ancient times when cousins married each other to strengthen the relationship, Xu Yunfan and the Fang sisters were known to outsiders as cousins. If they were too close, it would easily lead to rumors.
When Xu Yunfan saw Qin Run coming, the corners of his mouth almost stretched to his ears. After Qin Run got off the carriage and walked up to him, he hugged him affectionately and said, "Brother Run, why are you here?"
"I'm here to take you home." Qin Run took Xu Yunfan's hand and handed him the cold drink. "Is it hot? Do you want a cold drink?"
"Drink." Xu Yunfan liked this. Qin Run knew that he liked it, so he brought it for him when he went out.
Xu Yunfan drank very contentedly, "Then let's get in the car and go back quickly. Second sister, you get in too, we'll take you back first."
Second Sister Fang shook her head. "You guys go back. I'll wait a little longer. Ruxi will come pick me up later."
Seeing how Qin Run doted on his little brother, Second Sister Fang didn't want to watch any longer, otherwise she would be full before dinner tonight.
Sometimes, the Fang sisters all wondered if their little brother was born with the wrong gender. Look, he was with Run Ge'er, but he was the one being spoiled, and yet he acted as if it was his right.
Xu Yunfan got on the carriage and asked, "Run'er, how did you know I entered the palace?"
"My father told me, so I came to pick you up. What is the matter that the emperor summoned you to the palace?"
"It's not about the two princes of Daqi, it's about the second prince of Daqi, Jiang Zhongnian...but his problem, my second sister said it's not a big deal, so it's a small problem." Xu Yunfan leaned on Qin Run, "Jiang Zhongnian told me that their Daqi scenery is very beautiful. I really want to take you to see it, just the two of us."
Hearing this, Qin Run couldn't help but feel moved, "Are you not taking An Ge'er and the others?"
Da Qi is so far away, it will take more than a month to get there.
Since Qin An was born, except for the time he went to Beijing and checked the salt wells, he and Qin An's three children have basically never been separated.
"Why take them with us?" Xu Yunfan had never seen a couple go on their honeymoon with two brothers-in-law and nephews. It wasn't a trip. "It's just the two of us going. It would be too much of a hassle to take them with us. The children are grown up and should learn to be independent. They can't follow us around all the time. When the school is ready, we can just throw them in and assign them more homework. We'll just live our own life. What's the big deal about taking them with us?"
Qin Run smiled and kissed Xu Yunfan, "Okay, I'll listen to you and not take them with me."
…
The Jiang Zhongsi brothers returned to the inn and were silent for a long time.
After a while, Jiang Zhongsi stood up and paced back and forth. "Second brother, what did you talk about with Master Xu when you were in the palace?"
"It's just a few things. Master Xu also told me to treat him well if he has the chance to visit our Da Qi in the future."
"Did he really say that?"
"real."
Xu Yunfan dared to say such words. Does it mean that they are not worried about Jiang Zhongnian's affairs at all?
The reason why you are not worried is because you are confident?
"Brother, should we tell Father, the Emperor, and Mother about this?"
Jiang Zhong thought about it and said, "I can make the decision on this matter myself. My father gave me this right when I came here. If I write a letter, it will take at least several months. I heard that Da Shang is ready to make a move against Dayan recently. It seems that this time, we have to stand on Dayan's side."
The Great Zhao State is on the left side of the Great Qi State. If the Great Yan and the Great Shang State really fight, the Great Qi State will be stuck between the two States. As long as the Great Qi State does not move against the Great Yan, the Great Zhao State will not be able to move against the Great Yan.
When two countries go to war, the most feared thing is that other big powers will take advantage of your weakness to kill you.
Jiang Zhongsi entered the palace alone the next day.
This time, he and Fu Qingyu were the only ones in the hall, and Jiang Zhongsi didn't hide anything. "Emperor Yan, I don't know what your conditions are regarding this matter concerning my second brother, the Crown Prince?"
"Conditions?" Fu Qingyu raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Zhongsi, "Then I have to ask Master Xu what he wants."
Jiang Zhongsi was stunned. No, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Shouldn't Fu Qingyu take this opportunity to propose some self-interested things, such as asking Da Qi for some assistance? For such a big matter, this person actually wanted to ask a young master for his involvement?
Is Fu Qingyu confused about the primary and secondary?
"Emperor Yan, do we need to ask Master Xu about this matter?" Jiang Zhongsi's mouth almost twitched. You are probably not aware that you are the emperor of Dayan.
Fu Qingyu could hear the confusion in Jiang Zhongsi's words.
Fu Qingyu smiled calmly, then shook his head helplessly, "I couldn't help at all with this matter. It was all the work of the Xu siblings. I'm not that kind of person."
If he took the credit, believe it or not, Xu Yunfan would make him lose everything.
Xu Yunfan is a man who will eat anything except loss. If anyone dares to make him suffer loss, he will make you eat shit.
The main point is that if you have a grudge, you must repay it a hundredfold.
He is petty and vindictive.
Before, the Right Prime Minister always targeted Xu Yunfan, but look at him now, as soon as Xu Yunfan took office, he started a "killing spree". Almost all of the Right Prime Minister's men were dealt with by him, both openly and secretly. The Right Prime Minister dared not to stand out now, and Xu Yunfan did not stop either, saying that he was cleaning up the pests and restoring peace to Dayan. But Xiao Hengzhi and Fu Qingxu just followed him to "make trouble". Now in the court, the people of the Right Prime Minister's faction, when they meet Xu Yunfan, they all act like quails.
