Everyone panicked.
Li Ting steadied himself and bowed to Fan Zuan, expressing his desire for him to stay.
"Dr. Fan, you see, my wife's illness requires your constant attention. In addition, I just inhaled that poisonous gas, and now I feel like I can't raise my internal energy. Therefore, I would like to ask Dr. Fan to stay in the Li family and serve as the family physician."
“However, you can still treat patients. I just hope that you can stay at the Li family’s residence.” Li Ting sincerely expressed his thoughts.
Seeing Lu Dacheng blatantly harming the meritorious officials of Nanchen Kingdom, Fan Zu'an felt a surge of loyalty and righteousness, and thought that he should indeed stay at the Li residence for this period of time.
If he were not here today, the Southern Chen Kingdom would lose a tiger general who could stabilize the country and bring peace to the nation.
Once war breaks out, countless lives will be lost.
It just so happens that Ouyang Taohua recently wanted to close Jishantang and leave the capital. He hadn't decided where to go yet, so he decided to stay at the Li residence first, clear Madam Li's poison, and then clear General Li's internal energy. He would deal with the rest later.
"General Li, what I have seen and heard today is truly unprecedented. Therefore, I have decided to stay. It is my great fortune to be by your side! I will not stand on ceremony and will trouble you, General Li!"
Li Ting was very happy to see that Fan Zuan had agreed to stay at the Li family home.
He busied himself arranging accommodations and lunch.
I've been busy all morning and haven't even had time for lunch yet.
Fan Zuan gestured for Li Ting to stop in his haste, and asked him to sit down and take off his shirt.
Li Ting knew that Fan Zu'an was trying to detoxify him.
Xiao Sheng and the five boys from the Li family stood by, watching curiously.
Li Xingran slept quietly in the cot.
Fan Zu'an took out a cloth bag embroidered with the character for "medicine" from his medicine box. Unfolding the bag, everyone saw that it contained a set of gold needles.
Fan Zuan then took out a small bottle from the medicine box.
Li Xingran was stunned! How could this bottle look so much like an alcohol lamp!
Wow, I've met someone from the whole world here!
Li Ting: My dear daughter, did you meet someone from that world? Which one is it in this house?
Xiao Sheng: Is there another world?
The five Li brothers: Is my sister definitely talking about Fan Zu'an?
But why doesn't the book mention that Fan Zu'an is a time traveler?
Everyone was speechless: A time traveler?
Ah! That plague was developed by Zhao Yunwan and Lu Dacheng. They used the corpses of young girls that Lu Dacheng had captured from various places as culture media, and then the corpses were placed in various countries of the Cangxuan Continent.
No wonder Fan Zu'an could cure the epidemic; he used modern medical techniques. Haha, Daddy's struck gold!
Those inside the room who could hear Li Xingran's thoughts thought: Oh no, we can't understand what Ruanruan/sister/junior sister is saying.
[Father, from now on, whatever Fan Zu'an wants, just give him/her. You definitely won't lose out!]
Li Ting: Just for his medical skills, Father will definitely try to win him over, not to mention his pure heart.
Xiao Sheng: How can you, a little girl who's not even a month old, have such a high opinion of Fan Zu'an?
Li Ruizhang: As expected of the medical scholar invited by Tingquan Villa to give lectures to students, he is highly skilled and of noble character.
Ugh, after watching all that excitement this morning, I'm so sleepy. I need to pee, I want to sleep.
[Hold on a little longer and see how Fan Zu'an treats illnesses in ancient times without electricity, alcohol, instruments, or anti-inflammatory drugs.]
With a series of fluid movements, Fan Zuan had already inserted gold needles into the main acupoints of Li Ting's back, head, and limbs.
After inserting the acupuncture needles, Fan Zuan took out a medicine packet from his medicine box, and Liu Fu stepped forward to take it.
"Go and boil it into a broth, pour it into the bathtub, place a high stool in the tub, and have General Li sit on the high stool to be steamed with the medicinal steam for four hours. You must keep the water temperature at a level that the human body can tolerate," Fan Zu'an instructed.
"As for Madam Li, I would like to use acupuncture to remove the poison from her body. General Li, what do you think?"
"That's exactly what I was thinking. I only took the medicine to put on an act for Physician Lu. Now that I don't need to put on an act anymore, it's better to get rid of the poison as soon as possible."
"I thought it was General Li who felt sorry for his wife and didn't want her to suffer!" Fan Zu'an said jokingly.
"Of course I feel sorry for her, but my wife is skilled in martial arts, so that little bit of hardship is nothing to her." Li Ting didn't hold back in praising his wife.
Li Ting looked at the children in the room. There were some things he couldn't say in front of them, lest he disturb their peace of mind.
He then gave the order: "Sheng'er, go to the study with Li Ruizhang and the others. Today's study assignments have been laid out on the desk. If you don't understand something, ask Li Ruizhang. You can also have them teach you to recognize some characters."
Xiao Sheng respectfully replied, "Your student obeys."
Li Ruizhang led a few people away from the flower hall and into the study. Without discussing what they had seen that day, they each did the study tasks that Li Ting had arranged for them.
Li Ruizhang first taught Xiao Sheng to read.
The more they taught him, the more they praised him. This prince is quite remarkable; he has a photographic memory and exceptional self-control.
But why does my sister always say he's cannon fodder?
Xiao Sheng also admired Li Ruizhang, who could explain characters very clearly at such a young age, making it easy for Xiao Sheng to understand.
Moreover, all of the young masters of the Li family were quite accomplished in calligraphy, which Xiao Sheng greatly admired.
However, Xiao Sheng felt that as long as he worked hard, he could do it too.
After watching the children walk away, Li Ting asked Liu Fu to prepare the things they would need later, and then sincerely said to Fan Zu'an:
"To be honest, Doctor Fan, we poisoned my wife ourselves. It was to cover our tracks."
