Listening to his tone, it was as if a bunch of people were blocking his door.
Wu Xin: "This is what you said, I didn't force you. If you can't do it, you might not be able to keep your limbs."
Hao Yun Sheng felt a chill down his spine and hurriedly said: "I will do what I say, I will do it, I will do it, Mister can rest assured."
He wasn't unfamiliar with the legend of the Ghost Doctor. The Ghost Doctor didn't seem to have any power, but a person with medical skills at that level would have an invisible power. It was more terrifying than the power that could be seen with one's eyes and heard with one's ears. People really wouldn't put a Prince in their eyes.
Wu Xin didn't say anything more. After washing his hands, he entered the pavilion and asked Guo Man to bring over a brush, ink and paper. He personally wrote down a prescription and gave it to Hao Yun Sheng. "Your leg is an old injury, it's not suitable to treat it directly. Boil the medicine according to the prescription. First soak your leg for three days. Soak it for two hours every morning and night to relax the old injury. After three days, come back. I'll look at the situation and decide on the treatment method. "
Hao Yun Sheng received the prescription as if it was a treasure and nodded repeatedly: "I will follow mister's instructions."
His demeanor was more sincere than when he received the Emperor's edict.
"Send the guest off!" Wu Xin finished speaking and picked up the chopsticks to eat.
Guo Man extended her hand to send the guest off. Hao Yun Sheng looked at the simple dishes on the table and took the initiative to curry favor: "This restaurant's food is not worthy of mister. In the future, mister's food, Benwang will carefully prepare it and deliver it on time."
Wu Xin: "No need."
Hao Yun Sheng could only give up, but he still signaled his attendant to bring out a stack of gold notes. One hundred thousand gold notes were placed on the table, "A small token of my appreciation, mister please don't mind."
This, Wu Xin did not refuse, leisurely eating his own meal.
"Please!" Guo Man once again extended her hand to send the guest off.
"Good, good, good. Mister please enjoy, Benwang will not disturb." Hao Yun Sheng retreated and bowed. After leaving the courtyard, he didn't forget to thank Guo Man.
After Guo Man returned, she sat opposite Wu Xin and ate together.
Wu Xin pointed at the gold notes on the table, "Daily use of money, you keep it."
Guo Man was short of money, but she more or less understood the other party's style. She did as he said and didn't need to be polite. She counted the gold notes and couldn't help but click her tongue.
She was just casually messing around. She wasn't even sure if she could be cured, and she didn't even mention how much it would cost. Yet, the other party took the initiative to give her 100,000 gold coins. Wasn't it a little too easy for her to earn money? It was indeed much better than being a loose cultivator.
…
King Ying's Mansion. After dinner, Haozhen took the initiative to invite Shao Liu-er to the garden.
Shao Liuer knew that he must have something to say, so she waited patiently with him.
As expected, after walking around for a while, Haozhen asked, "How's the contact with your brother going?"
Shao Liuer: "I got in touch with him. He didn't say anything. He just told me to take care of myself."
"En!" Haozhen nodded. "Liu 'er, you're a smart person. There are some things I don't need to say. Keep in touch with your brother in the future."
Shao Liuer replied, "I understand."
The two of them didn't have anything in common to talk about, so they decided to just stroll around. After strolling around for a while, Shao Liuer took the initiative to start a conversation. "Prince, I heard that the Ghost Doctor's disciple came to Qi Capital."
Haozhen: "What's his name, Wu Xin? It's a weird name. It doesn't seem like his real name."
Shao Liuer: "I heard that many high-ranking officials and nobles have sent people to pay their respects. They've even blocked Wu Xin's door."
Haozhen: "I can understand. Some of them might really want to cure his illness, but most of them just want to make friends."
Shao Liuer: "There are some illnesses that cultivators can't cure with their magic power. Birth, aging, sickness, and death are unavoidable. With such a famous doctor, no matter if they're sick or not, which rich family wouldn't want him to examine them? They all want to make friends with him. It's said that even the poison in Zhao State's Jinzhou's Princess Royal's body was cured by him. Why doesn't the Prince send an invitation? There's no harm in getting to know such a person. If the Prince finds it inconvenient, I can use my own name to pay my respects. How about that? "
Haozhen: "This person's personality seems a little strange. He's not easy to get along with. The palace hasn't responded yet. They're still observing. Let's not get involved. I heard that after the Imperial Uncle from the West Courtyard paid his respects to the Ghost Doctor's disciple, he sent a group of people to clear the alley. He didn't want anyone to disturb the Ghost Doctor's disciple and offended many people. Let's observe the situation first. "
Shao Liuer nodded. "The Prince is right. I understand. Blergh … "She suddenly covered her chest with her hand and retched.
Haozhen was surprised. "What's wrong? Are you not feeling well? "
Shao Liuer blushed. "Prince, it's nothing. The Daoist Master has examined me. The Daoist Master said that I'm pregnant. "
Haozhen was stunned. Suspicion appeared on his face. "Why didn't anyone tell this prince about such a big matter?"
Shao Liuer bit her lip. "I told them not to say anything."
She wanted to see the Ghost Doctor's disciple because she wanted him to examine her. Although there were cultivators in her family, it was the first time she experienced something like this as a woman. She felt a little nervous and wanted a better doctor to examine her so that she could be at ease.
Looking at her expression, Haozhen quickly understood. She wanted to give him a surprise. Otherwise, the cultivators in the residence wouldn't have helped to hide it. He smiled and reached out to grab her hand. He said gently, "There won't be anything else tonight. I'll accompany you. Tomorrow, follow me to the palace to report the good news to my father."
"En!" Shao Liuer nodded softly.
The husband and wife, both dressed in gorgeous clothes, wandered together in the garden under the afterglow of the sunset.
…
In the majestic palace, Bu Xun stood on the city wall with his hands behind his back. He looked at the afterglow in the sky.
Bu Fang went up the city wall and walked to his side. "After the King of the West Courtyard returned to the residence, the servants immediately looked around for some medicinal herbs. From the looks of it, the Ghost Doctor's disciple should have treated the King of the West Courtyard."
"There's something missing in his leg. After so many years, it's already fixed. Could it be that the Ghost Doctor's disciple can help him grow it back?" Bu Xun felt a little strange.
Bu Fang said, "It's hard to say. We can only make a judgment based on the situation later. If you're in a hurry to know, perhaps you can directly ask the King of the West Courtyard."
Bu Xun said, "Let's ignore him for now. Has the background of that Ghost Doctor's disciple been investigated? "
Bu Fang said, "It's really hard to investigate. The Ghost Doctor has always been an elusive person. He's always been mysterious, and we don't even know his whereabouts. This disciple by his side suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and his background is completely unknown. The Administration Desk doesn't even have the slightest clue as to where to start. The only known clue is that he once appeared at the entrance of the Jinzhou Provincial Governor's Residence with the Ghost Doctor. This can only prove that he's indeed one of the Ghost Doctor's people. It can't be considered a clue to investigate. "
Bu Xun looked into the distance and Slowly said, "What about the woman by his side?"
Bu Fang said, "We've found out a little about this woman's background. She's called Guo Man, and she's just a loose cultivator in the cultivation world. She's only at the Qi Refining stage, and it's said that she's the disciple of a dead loose cultivator. So far, we've found that she has two sworn brothers. This woman really can't be considered a big deal, and we don't know how she got mixed up with the Ghost Doctor's disciple. The Administration Desk is currently tracking down her two sworn brothers. If we find them, we might be able to find some clues. I reckon that there will be a lot of people looking for them! "
Bu Xun said, "His Majesty admires her and wants to meet the Ghost Doctor's disciple. We can't just let anyone follow His Majesty. If something happens, no one can bear the responsibility. We have to find out as soon as possible!"
"Yes!" Bu Fang cupped her hands and accepted the order.
…
In Yan Jing, Gao Shaoming got out of the carriage and looked up at the tall lintel of his house. He let out a long sigh.
After such a thing happened, Yan Jing definitely wanted to find out the specific situation, so he was summoned back in a hurry. As soon as he arrived in Yan Jing, he didn't even go home and was directly taken to the Administration Desk for questioning.
When he went up the stairs and entered, the old butler who was already waiting at the door welcomed him. "Master is back. Master is waiting for you in the study."
In the study, Minister Yan, Gao Jiancheng, was sitting in front of a desk and writing something. He was as thin as firewood and didn't have many strands of beard. However, he looked full of energy and didn't look old at all.
Gao Shaoming entered and greeted, "Father."
Gao Jiancheng nodded and asked, "How did the questioning go?"
Gao Shaoming replied, "I told you time and time again that I didn't do it. I'm not that stupid. How could I attack Envoy Song at such a time? But they just kept asking me questions until my mouth was dry and my body was exhausted."
Gao Jiancheng stopped writing, put his hands on his abdomen and leaned against the back of the chair. "Why? Do you feel wronged? "
Gao Shaoming was silent for a while and shook his head. "Xu Gao is my man after all. It was my negligence that let others take advantage of the loophole. Xu Gao can't keep anyone alive. I guess he has disappeared from this world. So this is a muddle. It's impossible to find out the truth. Even if I didn't do it, I can't escape the blame. "
Gao Jiancheng nodded. "I didn't stay in the Intelligence Bureau for these years in vain. It's good that you understand. But the imperial court is not stupid. At this juncture, they can guess that someone is playing tricks. But His Majesty is furious! Since the responsibility has fallen on your head, just accept it obediently and don't have any complaints. I've already discussed some things with Tong Mo. "
Gao Shaoming nodded. "I understand. I've troubled Father."
Gao Jiancheng stood up. "This negligence of yours has caused the matter to blow up. The Song State kept denouncing us and wanted us to hand over the culprit. Xu Gao disappeared, and a man called Chao Shenghuai appeared in the Song State. He insisted that Xu Gao is one of the culprits. Moreover, that man is the grandson of Wan Shou Clan's Elder Chao Jing. The Wan Shou Clan has never been involved in disputes between countries. The Song State will not hand Chao Shenghuai over to us for interrogation. "
"The Song State is in the right. Not only are they unreasonable, but they are also taking action behind the scenes. According to the Intelligence Bureau, the Song State is mobilizing their troops. The Han State is also secretly sending more troops to the south. If the imperial court continues to act against the Nanzhou State, it will give the outside world an opportunity. One of the two countries will take action, and the other will take advantage of the chaos. They want to divide the Yan State. "
