Chapter 309 He was careless just now!
Liao Jiu seemed not to hear the sarcasm in the second princess' words.
"The Second Princess's method is feasible. Speaking of which, I have a doctor I can recommend."
Xuan Huang hurriedly said, "Oh, tell me quickly. What kind of doctor is he?"
Liao Jiudao said, "He's a country doctor. He has his own way of treating illnesses and saving lives. He has some rules and methods."
Everyone looked at Liao Jiu, full of anticipation.
An imperial physician asked, "Country doctor? Who taught you? What school of medicine do you belong to? What kind of cases do you usually specialize in? Do you have any medical cases worth mentioning? How old are you now?"
Liao Jiu...
He was not stupid, he was just worried about Xuan Huang's condition. When everyone talked about calling a miracle doctor, he thought of Jiang Lianzhu, who might be able to help take a look.
I don’t know if it will work, after all, so many imperial doctors can’t cure it.
Now that he was asked this question, he immediately gave up his thoughts. Why let Jiang Lianzhu take risks? Jiang Lianzhu originally just wanted to live an ordinary life. Regardless of whether she could cure Xuanhuang's illness or not, being involved in this dispute would be disadvantageous to her.
He was careless just now!
Worrying about Emperor Xuan's illness was one thing, but putting Jiang Lianzhu in danger without being completely sure was a lack of consideration on his part.
"He is an old country doctor without any master. He runs a small clinic in this town. Well, I was injured on the way here before, so I asked the doctor to bandage my wound. He seems to be good at treating external injuries. He saved my life, but I don't know if he can cure headaches. I am sorry for being rude. I was just worried about the emperor's condition and overstepped my bounds." He described the old doctor Tong from Shili Town. Everyone here is a smart person.
He couldn't reveal Jiang Lianzhu's information. He was not afraid of anything, but just in case someone came to investigate.
Suddenly, Xuan Huang's eyes showed some dissatisfaction.
The uncle prime minister also looked at Liao Jiu, signaling him not to say any more.
The imperial physician smiled. "I understand Governor Liao's feelings. If the person he mentioned is free one day, you can invite him back to treat the emperor. If you are lucky, he can find the right treatment. However, the emperor's health is not a joke. Any country boy can come to treat him. Where does that put the emperor's safety?"
Liao remained silent for a long time.
Prime Minister Zhou smiled and said, "You are right, Imperial Physician. However, Wuyang is only concerned about the health of the Holy Lord. I didn't mean to say that. A country doctor like this is definitely not enough. Let's get back to the topic we were talking about. The Second Princess and the Imperial Preceptor hope to invite a hermit master. Second Princess, please continue."
The scene returned to the Second Princess, and everyone's eyes turned to her again.
Free Liao Jiu.
The second princess talked for a long time, but it was just an idea and she hadn't found anyone yet.
At this moment, a servant suddenly came in from outside the palace and spoke to the chief imperial physician.
The chief imperial physician apologized and whispered something to the messenger nearby.
His voice trembled, "Are you serious?"
"Absolutely true." replied the waiter.
The chief imperial physician was so excited that his face flushed.
The others were curious when they saw this, and Emperor Xuan asked him, "What's going on? Imperial Physician Zhang?"
Imperial Physician Zhang's voice trembled as he bowed down, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! May God bless our Da'an Kingdom!"
"Don't keep me in suspense, just tell me directly." Xuan Huang said.
Imperial Physician Zhang replied, "It's the Gastrodia elata ginseng that's the lead ingredient. It's in the border area between the Aquarius Kingdom and our Da'an Kingdom to the east that traces of Gastrodia elata ginseng have appeared. Actually, our Imperial Hospital has already developed a good prescription for the Emperor's headache, but we've been lacking this Gastrodia elata ginseng as the lead ingredient. Without it, we can't cure it, we can only alleviate it indefinitely. Gastrodia elata ginseng has harsh growing conditions and usually appears at the bottom of deep valleys or on cliffs. It will move around when it's old, but will hide underground when it's young and no one can find it. Therefore, it has been hard to find until now. Our Imperial Hospital has been sending people to look for it, and now it's appeared! The Emperor's headache can be cured!"
These words excited everyone.
The second princess asked, "Really?"
"Really? We've already told His Majesty about the Gastrodia elata ginseng ingredient before..."
Xuan Huang nodded.
Upon hearing this, the Queen also said, "I have heard about it, but I haven't seen any movement, so I thought it was just an excuse from your Imperial Hospital."
Imperial Physician Zhang knelt hurriedly, "We dare not. This prescription is an ancient one we found with great difficulty in ancient medical books. How could it be an excuse? Your Majesty, please forgive me."
The eldest princess said, "Great! Then, hurry up and get the Gastrodia elata ginseng back!"
The second princess also wanted to agree, but was stopped by the master next to her with a look.
Prime Minister Zhou beamed with joy. "Congratulations in advance, Your Majesty. May Your Majesty be blessed with great fortune!"
Eunuch Si also smiled, "Your Majesty, great joy! This matter is of great importance. Gastrodia elata ginseng is so important. There must be no mistakes in obtaining it."
Imperial Physician Zhang said, "I will go and get the ginseng myself. I must bring it back. I don't trust anyone else. Once this Gastrodia elata ginseng appears, it will easily escape. It will wander around cliffs and deep valleys. Don't be careless. Once it escapes, it will disappear and it will be difficult to find it again."
Xuan Huang nodded.
The Second Princess said, "Father, I am willing to go with Imperial Physician Zhang to help you get the ginseng. Imperial Physician Zhang speaks so well, I'm afraid the ginseng might get away. I know mechanical engineering, and if necessary, I can use it to get it back..."
The imperial concubine nodded secretly. At this moment, her daughter's favorability had finally reached the right level.
The Queen smiled faintly. "The Second Princess is so filial. If the Crown Prince wasn't so young, I would have asked him to go with me. This matter is so important, I'm afraid the Second Princess alone can't go. We need the Six Gates to go as well! Let's make some compromises. When Governor Liao is in charge, everyone can trust him."
Xuanhuang also had this idea.
He looked at Liao Jiu and asked, "What does Governor Liao say? Should we put aside the recent matters?"
Because he saw hope, Xuanhuang felt his headache was relieved a little.
Liao Jiu turned around and said, "I obey your orders."
Everyone congratulated Xuan Huang once again, and then, without further ado, went down to prepare.
Prime Minister Zhou and Liao Jiu left the palace together.
"Wuyang, you should be careful. I have been feeling something is not at peace lately. This Gastrodia elata ginseng, a thing that appears in strange stories, whether it exists or not is another matter. The timing of its appearance is too coincidental." Prime Minister Zhou stroked the few whiskers on his chin and pondered.
Liao Jiu stared at the gorgeous white marble floor tiles with a dark look in his eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"Yes, uncle."
Prime Minister Zhou continued, "We'll act according to circumstances. Whether or not Gastrodia elata is harvested is none of your business. The Imperial Hospital will be responsible. And what about the Second Princess's mechanical skills? You'll just be responsible for their safety. If it's just a security issue, it would be more appropriate to bring the Imperial Guards. The Six Gates are there to solve crimes, try cases, apprehend criminals, and uphold justice. Why would we want you there? I wanted to say this before, but I was afraid it would affect the Emperor's mood..."
