Chapter 114 Concubine Yi
Yun Zhao didn't care much.
She put the medicine on the table and didn't take Rong Yuan's neglect of her to heart.
She got the position of imperial physician by her own ability.
She is not afraid of anyone.
Every day, she is the first to come and the last to leave.
She is like a sponge, absorbing nutrients tirelessly.
Because she knows very well.
It's not easy being a woman.
Times are tough.
She was born in a state of chaos. If she wanted to make a way for herself through her own efforts, it would be a million times more difficult than for men.
She also knew that she needed to become a very useful person and be needed by the nobles in the capital.
In this way, you can protect yourself and your family.
Her beauty would be the least noteworthy thing about her.
That day, late at night, it rained heavily.
Rong Xiao was on duty at night, while Yun Zhao was reading a medical book at the opposite seat.
Suddenly, a sharp flash passed before my eyes.
She frowned slightly and subconsciously turned away.
The sword went straight towards Rong Xiao. Yun Zhao frowned, tapped the ground with his toes, and pulled Rong Xiao away.
After they had stood firm, several men in black rushed in from the outer hall.
His tone was cold and fierce, "Are you Yun Zhao?!"
Yun Zhao casually picked up a medicine rolling stick beside him, stood in the middle of the hall, and said to Rong Xiao behind him, "Go in and hide."
The words fell.
The long sword approached, its sharp edge coming towards him. Yun Zhao dodged swiftly, and before the opponent could anticipate it, the wooden stick fell down coldly.
There was a loud "bang" and a man in black fell down!
Rong Xiao hid behind Yun Zhao, looking at the slender Yun Zhao, whose body was light and whose moves were neat.
After a few quick strikes, the wooden stick pointed at the vital point of one of the men in black, "Who sent you here?"
The man in black shrank his neck and said, "You killed someone, and someone is looking for you to pay for your life!"
Yun Zhao frowned. The people on the ground found a gap and fled without looking back.
When he left, a portrait fell to the ground.
There was a picture of Yun Zhao on it, with a few small words next to it: Jianghu Killing Order.
So, Li Ao knew the truth and sent people to kill her?
Rong Xiao stared at Yun Zhao blankly, not coming back to his senses for a long time.
It was a windy night. Yun Zhao stood in the main hall, under the slanting moonlight that fell all over the ground. She looked dashing and brave, a woman who was as brave as a man!
"Yun Zhao...you are so amazing."
Yun Zhao cleaned up the hall before returning to his seat.
"Those people, do they know you?"
Yun Zhao hummed, his expression unchanged. "I once saved a bully. He was rude and unreasonable. I argued with him for a few minutes, and he sent someone to kill me."
Yun Zhao was not in the mood to talk about this, so he made up an excuse.
Rong Xiao actually believed it.
In the eyes of rich kids, the world is peaceful and beautiful.
After that day, Rong Xiao began to return to his old self, talking to Yun Zhao with a smile on his face.
Yun Zhao's expression was indifferent and he was polite.
Rong Yuan came back after checking the emperor's pulse and stood at the door of the Imperial Hospital. He saw Rong Xiao handing a beautiful rose to Yun Zhao.
Rong Yuan's eyes slowly narrowed.
"Master Rong, Concubine Yi says she's feeling unwell. Which imperial physician should we ask to take her pulse?"
Rong Yuan stood at the door, looking through the corridor at Yun Zhao, who was sitting in front of the medical desk with red lips and white teeth.
She said lightly, "Let Doctor Yun go. They are all women, so it will be more convenient."
Upon hearing this, the father-in-law was stunned for a moment, and then went in to invite Yun Zhao.
Concubine Yi was the emperor's most beloved concubine in the palace.
Her brother was a brave and skilled warrior who defeated the rebels in the north and was a pillar of the imperial court.
Over the years, everything went well for Concubine Yi, except for her difficulty in getting pregnant.
The entire Imperial Hospital was helpless and they even sought help from folk doctors, but Concubine Yi's pregnancy showed no improvement.
Concubine Yi cursed the Imperial Hospital for being empty and the Imperial doctors for being incompetent every day in the palace!
Even if Rong Yuan went there in person, he would be scolded every time.
This is a chore in everyone's eyes.
If you’re not careful, you’ll lose your head.
Eunuch Li, who was leading Yun Zhao there, glanced at the slender Yun Zhao and sighed deeply.
The tone was not very polite. "Doctor Yun, please go in and just take the pulse. Don't talk too much. Recently, Concubine Li and Concubine Wang are both pregnant with the Dragon Offspring, but Concubine Yi's stomach is still not moving. She is very angry. We have checked all the hospitals in the palace, but it is useless. Please go in and take the pulse, write a prescription, and comfort Concubine Yi. Don't make Concubine Yi angry. It will hurt you and me!"
In the eyes of Eunuch Li, there are things that even so many imperial doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau cannot handle.
What can Yun Zhao, who is as thin as a hungry boy, do?
He was just dragged out here to be a shield.
Yun Zhao lowered his head and followed.
The doubts in my heart continued to grow.
She didn't understand. With her qualifications to enter the palace, she could only see some concubines, the head aunts and guards, so why did she suddenly be asked to see such an important person?
She had just arrived in the army, and knew nothing about etiquette, let alone the taboos in the palace.
Yi Fei...
Yun Zhao's eyes darkened. Such a person was too noble for her at the moment.
When Xie Jingmo left the court, he saw Yun Zhao from afar following his father-in-law, carrying a heavy medicine box on his back.
He shouted, but the rain was too heavy and Yun Zhao didn't hear him.
He casually pulled his father-in-law who was passing by and asked.
The eunuch sighed, "I don't know why. Lord Rong usually likes the newly arrived Doctor Yun the most, but this time he suddenly gave her this difficult task. Concubine Yi has been very angry recently. Last time, the diagnosis of Doctor Wang was not to Concubine Yi's liking, so she directly ordered him to be castrated on the spot! Afterwards, the emperor just let him go lightly.
Today, I saw that Doctor Yun was not even as heavy as the medicine box she was carrying. It was obvious that she was not very smart anymore. I wonder if she can come out of this trip in one piece."
Xie Jingmo frowned.
The raindrops fell on the oil-paper umbrella, making people feel upset.
At the palace gate, Deputy General Gao was waiting and yelled at Xie Jingmo, "General Xie, are you leaving or not? Didn't you say you were going to the Lin family to make the appointment today?"
It rained heavily.
Deputy General Gao wiped the sweat off his face and looked at Xie Jingmo standing inside the palace wall in confusion.
Xie Jingmo frowned, constantly thinking of Yun Zhao's back as he left with the medicine box on his back.
The medicine box was very heavy, and the rope fell on his thin shoulders, leaving a thin mark on his rough clothes.
Deputy General Gao stood in the rain, soaking wet. "General, did you hear me? Come out!"
Deputy General Gao thought he had a very loud voice.
But what puzzled him was that the more he shouted, the more Xie Jingmo turned around and walked inside.
"General!"
Xie Jingmo didn't even turn his head and waved his hand, "Not today, let's go another day."
As he spoke, Xie Jingmo took bigger and bigger steps.
Yun Zhao followed Eunuch Li to Concubine Yi's place.
Before he even entered the room, he heard Concubine Yi yelling in anger: "Why?"
"The Emperor is the one who comes to my place most often. I have enjoyed all his blessings, but why are those two bitches pregnant first?"
"Where's the imperial physician?"
"Where are those rubbish from the Imperial Hospital?"
"If you don't give me a reasonable reason today, I will kill her entire family!"
Yun Zhao stood outside the hall, trembling.
After coming to the capital, the phrase she heard most often was: Kill your whole family.
After hearing this, she didn't feel numb, but became even more frightened.
Eunuch Li went in to report, and his tone was different from the disdainful one he had just used when speaking to Yun Zhao.
Very humble and respectful, "Your Majesty, the imperial physician is here."
