"Boss is here!" It was almost the new year, so Wang Lin was no longer wandering around the other provinces. Instead, he returned to the capital to guard it. A country bumpkin had gone from being a clerk in a medicine shop to his current position. Sometimes, when he calmed down and thought about it, even he couldn't believe it. And all of this that he did not believe and was impossible had become reality with Feng Yu Heng. In just a short two years, he had transformed into one of the most famous people in the capital. But no matter how important he was to outsiders, he would rather return to being a clerk in front of Feng Yu Heng and use the most humble attitude to treat his benefactor. "Boss, quickly come in and sit." With that, he looked at the child in Wang Chuan's arms and couldn't help but exclaim, "This is … the Feng family's young master?"
Feng Yu Heng nodded. As she walked, she said, "From now on, this child is no longer part of the Feng family. I don't have a place to send him. Just arrange a room for him in Hundred Herb Hall and hire a wet nurse and maid to take care of him. As for what his name is … I haven't thought about it. Let's just call him Han. You guys can call him whatever you want. " She didn't have many feelings for this child, but she also didn't want him to suffer too much. Although she couldn't let him live like a real young master, she could at least raise him to be a proper person who relied on his own strength to survive. That way, he would be able to completely escape the bad influence of his disappointing parents.
As one of Feng Yu Heng's important business managers, Wang Lin had a bit of an understanding of the Feng family's matters. In regards to this child, he had also personally gone to examine him, thus he immediately understood Feng Yu Heng's intentions. He did not say anything, only ordering for the child to be brought over. He then had someone immediately call for a wet nurse and a maidservant. Only then did he bring Feng Yu Heng into the "office" that had been prepared for her.
After Feng Yu Heng sat down, Wang Lin began to report the progress of Hundred Herb Hall to Feng Yu Heng. Not including the main hall in the capital, Hundred Herb Hall had already opened twelve branches in Dashun, with three each in the north, south, east, and west. They were all centered around the capital and gradually expanded in all directions. After the New Year, he planned to open another branch in the three northern provinces as an experiment. If it was successful, he would set up branches in other borders.
Feng Yu Heng listened attentively, but did not express much of her opinion. When it came to the planning of Hundred Herb Hall, she had only given some guidance at the beginning, but Wang Lin's ability to accept, understand, and execute was outstanding. Basically, after she had explained it once, Wang Lin was able to expand his thinking and do things better. Therefore, Feng Yu Heng wasn't worried about the development of Hundred Herb Hall. Today, other than delivering the child, she had another reason for coming here.
"Recently, the palace hasn't been peaceful. I'm going to place someone in the Imperial Academy of Medicine." She told Wang Lin the reason for her visit and asked him to recommend someone.
Wang Lin thought for a long time, then said with some difficulty, "To place someone in the Imperial Academy of Medicine, that person's medical skills must be good enough. At the very least, they can't be worse than the people in the Imperial Academy of Medicine. In addition, this person must be absolutely loyal to us. This is as important as medical skills. This … "He scratched his head," Boss, if we're talking about people who are absolutely loyal, this little one can definitely recommend one or two. But if we're talking about medical skills, this little one's medical skills are shallow. I only know a little about medicine, so I really can't compare to the imperial doctors in the Imperial Academy of Medicine. If we're talking about the most suitable people to choose from, it would be best if old man Yao could choose one or two, but he doesn't come here anymore. In this little one's opinion, how about we let Song Kang choose? "
As Feng Yu Heng's disciple, Song Kang would spend the majority of his time in the capital. Wave after wave of geniuses that surpassed the current era of medicine were all trained through Song Kang. In regards to Song Kang, Feng Yu Heng and Yao Xian were not stingy. They had indeed taught him many things. Wang Lin suggested that Song Kang choose, and Feng Yu Heng didn't have any objections. She nodded and let him call Song Kang in.
Song Kang was in Hundred Herb Hall, so he quickly entered the room. When he came, he brought someone with him. The person looked to be around 25 or 26 years old and looked very steady. He carried a medicine box and followed behind Song Kang. His honest face gave off a very good first impression.
When Song Kang saw Feng Yu Heng, it was no different from seeing his mother. Without another word, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed. He called her master and almost hugged her and cried. The person who came in behind him was a bit startled and also a bit embarrassed. However, he knew Feng Yu Heng's identity, so he obediently bowed.
Feng Yu Heng nodded at him, then personally helped Song Kang up. After a long period of persuasion, Song Kang's emotions finally calmed down. She had been back in the capital for half a year, and Song Kang had followed Wang Lin out of the province. He had only been back for less than two months. Speaking of which, he hadn't seen Feng Yu Heng in a long time. The two of them talked for a while, then Feng Yu Heng told him her intentions again. She told him, "I want a person with good medical skills and character to send to the Imperial Academy of Medicine."
Song Kang thought for a bit, then pushed the person behind him forward. "Master, do you think he can do it? His name is Sun Qi, and he's my disciple. "With that, he pulled Sun Qi." Quickly kowtow to Martial Ancestor. "
Sun Qi was also obedient. He directly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Feng Yu Heng. "Sun Qi kowtows in salute to Martial Ancestor."
The identity of Song Kang's disciple surprised Feng Yu Heng a bit, and the title of Martial Ancestor made her a bit uncomfortable. She forced a smile and let Sun Qi stand up. She casually asked a question and found that Sun Qi did indeed have a unique understanding of medical skills. Although those insights were a bit childish in the eyes of a soul from a later era like her, it was already a big improvement for people nowadays to be able to rely on their own abilities to understand surgery. She wanted to send someone into the palace because she wanted to send someone who had a certain level of experience and understanding in the field of surgery. She did not want to send someone like the original imperial physicians, who only focused on studying traditional Chinese medicine.
Of course, words were not proof. Feng Yu Heng immediately brought a few people to the operating room. Coincidentally, there was a surgery waiting for Song Kang to do, and Sun Qi was Song Kang's first assistant. Feng Yu Heng followed in and watched half the process. She was very satisfied with Sun Qi's medical skills. As a result, the candidates to enter the palace were decided. She also told them to arrange to enter the palace in five days. Only then did she leave the operating room.
When she returned to her room, Wang Lin followed her. Feng Yu Heng didn't ask Song Kang and Sun Qi much before, but now she asked Wang Lin, "How much do you know about that Sun Qi?"
Wang Lin was startled, "Is Boss worried about him? Song Kang's disciple should be fine, right? This little one has a lot of contact with that Sun Qi. I feel that he is a good person. He is very honest and willing to work. His skills are indeed good. "
Feng Yu Heng bitterly smiled, "You can't judge a person by their appearance. I believe in Song Kang, but Song Kang has a problem. He is a medical fanatic. To him, those with good medical skills are all good people. Or rather, he only judges people by their medical skills. As for other things, as long as they are not evil people, he doesn't care and can't see through them. That's why I have to ask you. The people who are going to be sent to the palace cannot be sloppy. Do you know how Sun Qi and Song Kang met? How did he become Song Kang's disciple? "
Wang Lin was clear about the details, so he told Feng Yu Heng, "That Sun Qi was originally a foreign doctor from the northwest. His medical skills were very good. Song Kang once saw him treating a homeless person on the street and took a fancy to his medical skills. He asked Sun Qi if he was willing to follow him to Hundred Herb Hall. Speaking of which, Sun Qi didn't want to come at first. He only wanted to be a traveling doctor and treat people wherever he went. He didn't want to settle down in one place, especially in a place like the capital. He didn't like it. However, Song Kang insisted on dragging him to Hundred Herb Hall to take a look and watch a surgery. After that, Sun Qi followed Song Kang wholeheartedly and even acknowledged him as his master. "
Listening to Wang Lin talk about Sun Qi's background, there wasn't anything special about him. He also sounded like a medical fanatic. Although he wasn't as crazy as Song Kang, he was still better than a normal doctor. Of course, this was also the most awkward part in her heart. Since he was a medical fanatic and didn't even want to stay in Hundred Herb Hall, how could he so calmly agree to work in the imperial hospital without any resistance?
Seeing Feng Yu Heng frown and not say anything, Wang Lin said, "If Boss is worried, why don't you let Song Kang go? He's the most suitable person."
Feng Yu Heng shook her head, "No. Once he arrives at the imperial hospital, his body will be tied up and he won't be able to take care of things here. We don't have enough people in our hands. We still need to develop outside, so we can't leave Song Kang. How about this, you pick a reliable apprentice to follow him into the palace. With two people entering the palace, there will be someone to supervise. "
Wang Lin nodded, "That's not a problem." After thinking for a while, he said, "Let Xu Mao go. He's a distant relative from my hometown and has been working in Hundred Herb Hall for more than a year. He's definitely reliable."
"You can decide on this." Feng Yu Heng wasn't worried about Wang Lin. After all, Wang Lin wasn't a medical fanatic like Song Kang. He was a businessman, so he was more cunning and had a better eye for people. If he said he was reliable, then he was definitely reliable. Otherwise, she wouldn't have trusted him with Hundred Herb Hall for the past two years.
After arranging things here, she didn't stay any longer. She got up and brought Wang Chuan and Huang Quan back to the palace. At the same time, she was calculating in her heart. Xuan Tianming should be back in a few days, right?
She was calculating on the streets of the capital. In the palace, Emperor Tianwu was sitting in the main hall of the Heavens and Earth Palace, calculating with his fingers. As he calculated, he muttered to himself as if he was chanting scriptures. Just listening to him gave Zhang Yuan a headache.
"Are you trying to set up a stall to get your fortune told?" Zhang Yuan looked at Tianwu's serious expression and couldn't help but advise, "What is this? Can it be accurate? If it's not accurate, then let the people from the Imperial Astronomer do it. This skill has its own specialization. We can't just show off everything. "
Tianwu angrily chased him away, "Go, go, go, go to the side. This one will calculate how many days old ninth will be back in the capital. What, does the Imperial Astronomer care about this?"
"Then what do they care about? Isn't it up to you? They'll do whatever you want them to do! "
The old emperor slammed the table, "If you don't know anything, then don't blindly get involved! The Imperial Astronomer is a place for astrology. The Imperial Astronomer is an official in charge of astrology, not a stall for fortune telling! This matter needs to be handled by this one. "
"Alright, so you're still saying you're a fortune teller." Zhang Yuan didn't have the strength to persuade him anymore. He found a step in the main hall and prepared to sit down. Before he could sit down, he heard Tianwu suddenly say, "Go arrange some people. Tonight, listen to this one's orders and go set Winter Moon Palace on fire!"
The little eunuch was so scared that his legs trembled. Before he could sit down, he slipped and rolled down the steps of the main hall.
