Yan Cigui.

Shen Chen was stunned.

What their master said was so unexpected.

"You mean..." Shen Chen looked outside the flower hall, unable to conceal the complicated meaning in his tone.

At this moment, Eunuch Ye and the doctor were no longer visible. After recalling their appearance, Shen Chen swallowed all the words he originally wanted to say.

He never questioned their master's judgment.

Whatever I say, that’s what it is. If I say that person is not Dr. Yue, then there must be something wrong.

However, at the beginning, what Shen Chen was thinking was, "The King of Jin was also fooled by the imposter?"

After all, the Northeast is a huge place. Prince Jin went to the local area to find people with great fanfare, and he might even offer good conditions.

It stands to reason that when nobles in the capital do things, money clears the way faster than anything else.

You're looking at the Duke's injuries again, how can you be stingy?

Someone was moved by the money. Li Gui rushed out and shouted that he was Li Kui, and was brought back to the capital.

In fact, some of the people sent out to do things are unreliable. If they have a wrong idea, they can just talk to themselves and find a doctor to pay for the work.

And no one in Beijing had ever seen the real Dr. Yue. He called a deer a horse and sent a fake one to the Duke's mansion.

But, is Prince Jin really unaware of this?

After the initial "goodwill" consideration, the rest are all kinds of speculations.

They are checking something.

Although the water was deep and shadowy, and he and Xuan Su were not told all the ins and outs, they were ordered to do things and could more or less get a glimpse of the situation.

Dao Heng died, and Wang Qi probably didn't survive. The real son of these two people may not be King Jin.

So, the thing about fake doctors is unusual.

After sorting out this line, when Shen Chen spoke again, it became another sentence: "What is the origin of this doctor?"

Xu Jian returned to the chair and sat down.

The tea was already cold, but he didn't mind and took a sip to moisten his throat.

Xu Jian recognized the "Doctor Yue", but not completely.

He has come into contact with too many orthopedic doctors of all ages and origins. At that time, one of the doctors who came to the house for treatment was this one.

At that time, the man called himself Zhang and was practicing medicine in the Guanzhong area. He saw the medical notice posted by the government and volunteered to come to the capital.

Doctor Zhang spoke in Guanzhong Mandarin. He was in his fifties, a little tired after a long journey, and his courage retreated after seeing Xu Jian's injuries.

The already atrophied right leg, along with the affected left leg, seemed to continue to deteriorate. It was really beyond the reach of ordinary doctors, so Dr. Zhang left.

It only took half a day from the time he showed up to the time he gave up, and he had seen many doctors during that time. Thanks to Xu Jian's good memory, he could remember Dr. Zhang's appearance.

But now, the former Doctor Zhang has become Doctor Yue.

Although he has been rooted in the Northeast for decades, he does not have any local accent. Although he does not reveal the Guanzhong Mandarin, his appearance cannot be changed. He is still the same person Xu Jian has seen before.

"People from Guanzhong." Xu Jian said, and then began to ponder again.

Judging from the last time I recognized Dr. Zhang, this is a doctor who wants to make some money.

At that time, the leg injury was serious and could not be treated. This did not mean that Dr. Zhang's medical skills were not good, but it could be seen that he had good medical ethics.

If you can, you can, and if you can't, you can't. You don't talk nonsense, and you don't want to defraud the doctor and medicine money every day. If you have no choice, just leave.

With this straightforward attitude, Doctor Zhang should have no connection with the person behind him.

And his increasingly worse leg injury had nothing to do with Dr. Zhang.

what about now?

Doctor Zhang transformed into Doctor Yue and was sent to the Duke's Mansion by Prince Jin. What kind of thoughts did he have?
The King of Jin sent people to the northeast and found a doctor from Guanzhong. Is it the problem of the King of Jin or the problem of his subordinates?
What is the final result of what the doctor calls "the value of trying"?
Or does he no longer care about medical ethics?
After sorting out some thoughts, Xu Jian got up and went to the study, picked up a pen and wrote a note, sealing it in a thin bamboo strip.

"It's still the same as before, let Dong Chen's family send it to the princess." He said.

Shen Chen was ordered to go.

Xu Jian stood by the window for a while with her hands behind her back.

What I said in Cining Palace before was really not an excuse, but really inconvenient.

Just a sentence or two had to be handed over to several hands, and it was delayed again and again.

When the marriage was done, why bother? He suddenly remembered something. He could go back to the backyard or ask the princess to come to the study, and he could explain it face to face.

We’ll have to wait a little longer, until the end of November.

It was already evening when such an inconvenient note was handed to Lin Yunyan.

Lin Yunyan opened it and frowned.

She knew that a doctor appointed by King Jin had gone to the Duke Fu's mansion today, and it was supposed to be Doctor Yue. Unexpectedly, the person Xu Jian asked on the note was Doctor Zhang from Guanzhong.

According to what Xu Jian mentioned, Doctor Zhang once came to Beijing and left after realizing that his ability was limited.

There were so many doctors coming in and out of the Duke's Mansion during that time that Lin Yunyan couldn't remember such a doctor even after being reminded of it like this.

Of course, Xu Jian did not ask her to recall this incident, but asked him about the conditions of the doctors they had seen in Guanzhong.

Lin Yunyan pursed her lips.

She was actually reluctant to recall her experience in Guanzhong. The situation at that time was simply a nightmare.

Shen Chen sacrificed Wang Qi's life so that Lin Yunyan could be rescued. She arrived in Guanzhong with Xu Jian and Xuan Su, but was also trapped in Guanzhong.

It was her father who came all the way to save her, but was shot in the back by a stray arrow. By the time they met Xuan Su who was exploring the way and found that her father was seriously injured, it was already too late.

Xuansu was unwilling to give in.

He just didn't want to accept "too late" again. It was also because of "too late" that he failed to save Shen Chen.

It was still dark, and there was a little light in the darkness. Xuan Su went to a medicine shop in the city and robbed a doctor.

Lin Yunyan told Xuan Su about the location of the drug store.

The doctor was old and frightened, but when he saw the injured, he didn't care about anything else and looked at the injury carefully. Unfortunately, the injury was too serious.

"It won't have much effect and will only add unnecessary suffering."

"I have some anesthetics to relieve the pain and make it easier for people to walk."

Thanks to those medicines, my father no longer had to fight the pain with all his strength. He told them everything he knew with his last breath, and passed away at dawn.

The doctor left first, saying that he was just a doctor and didn't want to get involved in other things.

The three of them were running for their lives. They couldn't even pay for the medical treatment. After finding a place to bury their father in a hurry, they set off again.

Heavy memories filled her mind. Lin Yunyan slowly exhaled and read Xu Jian's note again.

It seems that Xu Jian believes that Doctor Yue who appeared today is the same person as Doctor Zhang who once visited the capital and the doctor who was kidnapped by Xuan Su outside Guanzhong City.The doctor left before dawn. In addition to not wanting to cause trouble, he probably also recognized Xu Jian's identity.

After leaving Guanzhong, they did not encounter pursuers for a while. The doctor said he would not interfere with them and did not betray them.

Lin Yunyan picked up her pen, wrote a note back to Xu Jian, and put it back in a bamboo knot.

When the "reply" arrived in Xu Jian's hands, he had just finished dinner.

While opening the plug on the bamboo joint, Xu Jian whispered: "It's quite fast."

Shen Chen stood aside and heard the four words clearly.

What they said was obviously irony.

I think it's too slow.

But from Shen Chen's point of view, there are differences between men and women. If the person handling the matter is not the Chen Dong family who is related to Uncle Chengyi's house, he may not be able to come back tomorrow, which is already fast enough.

Xu Jian glanced at the note and said to Shen Chen: "There is a wine shop in the southwest corner of Guanzhong City. There are two alleys to the north of the wine shop. There is a medicine shop under an apricot tree. I want to ask if Dr. Zhang from the medicine shop has left. ”

Shen Chen took note of it carefully.

During the day, they said that the "fake Doctor Yue" was from Guanzhong, so he was actually Doctor Zhang?

Also, this address was written on the note by the princess, right?
The way the princess reported her address was really unique.

Of course, this is actually not Lin Yunyan’s fault.

It was such a chaotic time in the past that I couldn't remember the name of the alley and the name of the shop in a hurry.
When Xuan Su went to rob the doctor, he relied on this description.

After Xu Jian explained, he put the note next to the oil lamp and lit it.

There was actually something else in the note. The little princess said that she did not remember what the doctor who came back from the robbery looked like, let alone Doctor Zhang who visited the Duke's Mansion.

But Xu Jian remembered it.

I remember Dr. Zhang who came to the house. At that time in Guanzhong, the light was limited, so he could not see so clearly. He only felt that they were very similar, and he was [-]% sure.

Because of this, if the doctor hadn't escaped so quickly, Xu Jian would have had murderous intentions.

He could recognize the doctor, couldn't the doctor recognize him?Especially since he is in a wheelchair, his characteristics are distinctive and outstanding.

Once this doctor betrays them and exposes their whereabouts, the bloody road they finally fought through will be blocked again.

But in the end, Xu Jian didn't let Xuan Su take action.

Fortunately, the pursuers did not arrive.

The slender note burned quickly, leaving little ash behind.

Xu Jian lowered his eyes and tidied up.

If it were really Dr. Zhang, he could change his name and become Dr. Yue, but would he really be able to diagnose and treat patients randomly?
Whether King Jin was kept in the dark or he came up with a false story on purpose, once he puts forward some ideas that are not in line with the attitude of a doctor, will Dr. Zhang cooperate honestly?

The night got darker.

There is no moonlight, and the stars are very pale.

Li Du returned to the study and asked Eunuch Ye to invite Doctor Yue.

The man was placed in the outer courtyard of the palace and soon arrived, respectfully bowing to Li Du.

Li Du looked at him for a while and asked, "How is Duke Fu's injury?"

The doctor said what he said to Xu Jian today to Li Du again.

"He was indeed seriously injured at that time," Li Du sighed, "Military doctors are not that meticulous in treating injuries, and Fu Guogong was still anxious to return to the capital.

Everyone knows that after a hundred days of straining one's muscles and bones, even if it's just a sprain, one has to rest and recuperate. However, he was driving back to Beijing with the Crown Prince after a bumpy journey. How could he be lying in a carriage?
Beijing invited imperial doctors and famous doctors again, and finally the treatment ended up like this. "

The doctor said: "It is indeed delayed."

"I heard what the doctor means, can he be cured?" Li Du said, "It will definitely take a lot of pain to treat the injury, but he is young, and it is worth the hardship in the past two years in exchange for the health of the next few decades. Doctor, are you sure you can't? Will it get worse with more treatment?"

The doctor didn't answer immediately.

After all, he is a doctor, not a god.

A disease can be cured, but a life cannot be saved.

The treatment of this kind of old injury depends on whether the injured person is cooperative, able to endure hardship, and how much hardship he is willing to endure. He is just the one who prescribes prescriptions and inserts acupuncture. It is irresponsible for him to talk all the talk.

"It may also get worse with more treatment," the doctor said honestly. "I can understand that the Duke of Guo has concerns and does not agree to treatment."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Du was surprised and turned to ask Eunuch Ye: "He refuses to be cured?"

Eunuch Ye said sarcastically: "I told him to think more about it and ask Dr. Yue to write an explanation and he would take a look at it."

"Then Doctor Yue, just write him a letter and try to convince him," Li Du paused here, "He has his own considerations, and it is reasonable for him not to try casually with a doctor he doesn't recognize. You If I hadn’t borrowed Dr. Yue’s name, I wouldn’t have been able to see his injuries. What’s your last name?”

"My surname is Zhang," the doctor replied.

"I'd better call you Doctor Yue to avoid misremembering," Li Du said. "It doesn't matter what your last name is. What matters is that you can give him a good treatment."

Doctor Zhang agreed.

Eunuch Ye sent him out and gave him a few words of advice: "Although I borrowed someone else's name, it's really hard to find Dr. Zhen Yue. I don't know which mountain col he is in.

It was also luck to find you. The prince had previously had the idea of ​​hiring a doctor for the Duke, and he knew that there was such a person as you.

It just so happened that your white hair was similar to what Dr. Yue was rumored to be, and your age was about the same, so I picked you up.

As long as the Duke of Guo can be cured, when the time comes and you say your surname is Zhang, the Duke of Guo will only thank you and not care about your fake name. If you type out your real name, the whole world will know that you are a great doctor. "

Doctor Zhang smiled and said, "Thank you for your explanation. I also want to convince the Duke of Guo as soon as possible. He is so injured that the delay is only a few days. Give it a try and it will be easy for decades to come."

Eunuch Ye rolled his eyes: "You really won't be cured, right?"

"This..." Doctor Zhang touched his beard.

He has been practicing medicine for many years, has seen various patients and their families, and is aware of their various concerns.

It’s normal to be afraid that the treatment will be damaged!
Who would not be afraid!
I don’t know why, but hearing these words from Eunuch Ye’s mouth, I felt something was wrong.

Doctor Zhang thought, maybe the chamberlain speaks in this tone, right?He had never come into contact with his father-in-law before. Furthermore, the person who was injured was the Duke of Fu, and the person he was asking about was the father-in-law in the palace. They were far apart and had a different relationship with the family members of ordinary patients.

"Normally not," Doctor Zhang said, "There are also accidents."

Eunuch Ye nodded thoughtfully.

After seeing Doctor Zhang off, Eunuch Ye returned to Li Du.

Li Du asked: "What do you think of Xu Jian's injury?"

Eunuch Ye talked about what he saw today and said: "It seemed that it was very serious at the time. In the end, he only limped a little. Duke Fu was lucky. Don't worry, although he had concerns about the method proposed by the doctor, he would never have thought that the doctor was a fake." of."

Li Du took a sip of tea and was noncommittal. (End of chapter)
