Chapter 832 Chapter 834 [Going to the palace to see a doctor]
"Hey, by the way, I just told you about the reform and forgot that there are important things that I haven''t mentioned yet." After Lu Zhengming made an impassioned speech, he suddenly scratched his head and said, "His Majesty, I hope you can go." See a doctor."
“Since it’s the prince’s order, I naturally have the duty to do so.” Xiang Nan nodded, “I’ll pack the medicine box and we’ll leave right away.”
“No, no, not now, we will go in the evening.” Lu Zhengming waved his hand quickly.
“At night?!” Xiang Nan was stunned and suddenly thought of something.
At this time, Hu Suhua came in with tea. When she heard Lu Zhengming''s words, she frowned, "Mr. Lu, why do you have to go to see a doctor at night? Isn''t it a shabby place?"
"Hey, sister-in-law, you can''t talk nonsense." Upon hearing this, Lu Zhengming quickly waved his hands and said, "If the superiors find out, they will lose their heads."
"What kind of place is so arrogant and makes you lose your head every time you say it? Could it be the Forbidden City?" Xiang Nan asked knowingly. He thought it was time to see Concubine Zhen.
"Xi Langzhong, you are really smart. Yes, you can go into the palace and treat the empress." Lu Zhengming nodded immediately.
“Really, you’re going to the palace to see a doctor?! Oh, old man, I heard a magpie chirping this morning. It turns out there is indeed something happy.” Hu Suhua said excitedly after hearing this.
Xiang Nan smiled.
Knowing this, it was actually Prince Jing who tricked him.
Knowing that Concubine Zhen was not liked by the Queen Mother, whoever treated her would be resented by the Queen Mother, she even recommended him to attack Concubine Zhen.
Fortunately, there was no danger, and Cixi was not too angry. Otherwise, your life will be at stake.
To be honest, it is a bit unkind for the prince to do this.
It means treating yourself as a tool that can be used and can be discarded at any time. Thinking about it, it''s really chilling.
"Master Lu, tell the truth, what kind of disease does Concubine Zhen have? Is it that even the imperial doctor is helpless?" Xiang Nan asked immediately.
"I''m not sure about that, I just said he was bedridden." Lu Zhengming waved his hands and said, he really didn''t know. After all, the matter involved the palace, and the prince didn''t say much to him.
Xiang Nan nodded, knowing that Lu Zhengming was straight-tempered and he couldn''t explain clearly, so he probably wasn''t. It seems that this matter was done by the prince alone.
?Thinking about it this way, he had no resentment towards Lu Zhengming.
"Well, since it is the prince''s order, I will go through fire and water, and I will not hesitate." Xiang Nan then smiled.
“Then it’s settled, I’ll pick you up in the evening.” Lu Zhengming nodded.
…
"Old man, I really didn''t expect that you would really bring honor to our old Xi family when you go to the city to see your wife." Hu Suhua giggled, extremely happy, "Sister Xi Shi, Defu, Yu''er... Come and congratulate the old man~"
"Sister, what''s the matter?" Sai Xishi walked in with Yin''er''s support, her belly bulging. In a month at most, she will give birth.
Defu, Shengzi, Luzi and others also ran in, "Master''s wife, what''s going on?"
“The old man is going to the palace to see the empress~” Hu Suhua announced triumphantly.
“Oh, is it true? Congratulations, big brother, congratulations, big brother!”
“Congratulations, Master! Congratulations, Master!”
“Master is really amazing. Going to the palace to see a doctor is something I have never thought of in my life.”
?Everyone was very happy when they heard it.
"Okay, just be happy and happy, it''s not a big deal." Xiang Nan waved his hands and said, "The imperial doctor of the imperial hospital can go to the palace every day, so what does it matter? It''s just the same life.
Defu, please pack the medicine box and go to the palace with the master in the evening. "
“Master, are you telling the truth? Do you really want me to accompany you into the palace?” Defu said in surprise when he heard this.
"Son, can I forget you for such a good thing?" Xiang Nan said with a smile. Defu has done a good job in the past six months. He has been working as a court official in Yixiaotang. He is diligent and conscientious. He has countless people alive and is well-known in the capital. Many patients know that there is Dr. Zhang in Yixiaotang, who is good at treating patients.
?His temperament has also changed from being extravagant to being stable. He has made no mistakes in seeing a doctor for more than half a year, and he is very practical and stable.
Actually, the fact that he was so frivolous and carefree before was largely due to the fact that Xilaile and Hu Suhua spoiled him. The two of them treated him as their own son and could not be said to be obedient, but compared to other apprentices, Defu was undoubtedly treated much better.
??Coupled with Hu Suhua''s strong personality and Xilaile''s excellent medical skills, Yixiaotang was supported by them, without wind or rain, which made Defu not bullied much since he was a child. Naturally, he did not know the dangers of the world, so he was naive, childish and frivolous.
?However, in the past six months, he has begun to work alone, and the burden on his shoulders has become heavier, which naturally puts pressure on him. In addition, Wang Tianhe sent people to harm him several times, which also made him see the ugliness of human nature.
So he began to grow rapidly. Xiang Nan is also willing to let him see more of the world so that he can grow faster.
“Thank you, Master.” Defu said happily.
“Brother Defu, congratulations~”
“Brother Defu, I really envy you~”
“Brother Defu, it’s great that you are going to meet the emperor~”
Everyone congratulated him.
…
"Okay, don''t rush to congratulate me yet." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "Defu, come here, master will teach you some rules in the palace. Don''t let you go in and talk nonsense.
At that time, if you say something incorrectly and offend Long Yan, do you know what will happen? "
“What’s the end?” Defu asked doubtfully.
“Ka~” Xiang Nan pointed his fingers together like a knife and made an empty cut between the neck.
“…” Defu was immediately frightened, “Master, otherwise I’d better not go.”
Entering the palace is certainly a good thing, but there is a risk of losing your head. Instead, he would rather stay at home.
"Look at your potential. A man would rather be beaten to death than scared to death." When Yu''er saw it, she hated the iron.
“I dare you not to go, that’s why I say it so easily.” Defu retorted.
"Okay, be honest, no one will behead you." Xiang Nan waved his hand, "Come, learn from me how to be polite when you arrive in the palace..."
Xiang Nan immediately taught Virtue.
His understanding of court etiquette is much better than that of Hu Suhua.
Hu Suhua''s little knowledge was gained on the stage and in storytelling. It was just based on hearsay and extrapolation. In fact, that was not the case at all.
Defu also knew that if he did something wrong, he might lose his head, so he studied very seriously.
How to recognize people, how to salute, how to answer questions... I basically have it all figured out.
Actually, when foreign ministers enter the palace, they need to have eunuchs and eunuchs in charge of etiquette to teach them the rules. They are afraid that the lack of etiquette will offend Long Yan.
?However, in the late Qing Dynasty, order was chaotic and many rules were abolished. In addition, this time the treatment was urgent, and there was no time to prepare.
…
Master and apprentice Xiang Nan prepared for a long time. In the evening, Lu Zhengming took them into the palace.
Thanks to the book friend and monk for the head lice tip, I appreciate it!
