Madam, protect me!

Inside Prince Sheng's mansion, the man looked at the strong reinforcement sent by the master and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

Lin Fuzhi's eyes flickered. He had always felt that something was wrong.

He knew Prince Sheng.

But he knew Li Nuo even better.

Among the four regent princes of Zhao State, Prince Sheng was the least supportable.

If it was just that he was not capable enough, it would be fine, but his character was extremely poor. Who was Li Nuo? A fourth-level strongman of the Legalist family would never associate with such a person, let alone help him win the throne.

He still hadn't figured out this problem.

But now, everything was clear.

It turned out that the Sixth Princess was the key.

Beauty.

Princess.

In this way, everything made sense.

Li Nuo was a beauty, and this was almost known to everyone in Daxia.

Including the little princess, the three most famous beauties in Chang'an were all taken into his mansion.

The eldest wife of the Li family is a martial arts genius, the second wife is the princess of Daxia, and the third wife is a famous courtesan in Chang'an. It is not impossible that he wants another foreign princess, or even an empress.

For no reason, he must have something to gain by helping the fourth prince to fight for the throne.

He didn't know what he was after before, but now he knows.

After listening to Lin Fuzhi's explanation, the man was stunned for a long time before he said in disbelief: "You mean, he is making a feint to the east and attacking the west, supporting the fourth prince on the surface, but actually wants to support the sixth princess to take the throne?"

Lin Fuzhi nodded.

In any country, it is impossible to support the princess to take the throne.

Only in Zhao, it is not only possible, but also very hopeful.

The man asked: "What should we do now? Should we switch to the sixth princess? In that case, you have to stay in the dark to avoid being recognized by him."

Lin Fuzhi raised his hand and said: "No, we will continue to stay in Shengwang Mansion..."

...

Princess Mansion.

The original Princess Mansion has completely become a medical clinic.

Because there are too many registered doctors, they need to be arranged for rotation.

These doctors cooperated so well, gave up their own business, donated money and contributed people, not because they were attracted by the Sixth Princess's noble character and Li Nuo's personality charm, but because they had their own plans.

They wanted to cultivate and leave a name in medical history.

Li Nuo also wanted a name, the Sixth Princess's name among the people.

Although this model cannot last long, Li Nuo does not ask them to last long.

Letting these fourth-level doctors see ordinary headaches and colds is undoubtedly a waste of talent. Under normal circumstances, doctors who have not entered the country can also handle these diseases.

First establish contact with them and build a good relationship. In the future, promoting medical reform in the local area will also require their support.

The medical resources of Zhao State are monopolized by these people, including the planting, sales and pricing of medicinal materials, the reserve of basic medical talents, etc. Building a medical school in the local area will inevitably involve dealing with them.

These people are also very supportive of his and the Sixth Princess' ideas.

Medical schools mainly face ordinary people, and ordinary people are not their main customers. In fact, there is no direct conflict of interests between the two.

Before dinner, Li Nuo met Chen Taiyi again.

Yesterday, he was still energetic, but today he looked a little haggard, with fatigue in his eyes.

This kind of fatigue is not physical fatigue, but psychological fatigue.

Chen Zhong did not sleep last night, and he was distracted when he went to the yamen today. He kept reviewing the conversation with Li Nuo yesterday.

His medical theory is undoubtedly the most solid one Chen Zhong has ever seen in his life.

Not only solid, but also comprehensive.

Doctors generally have their own strengths, and everyone has different preferences, but he is very familiar with every branch of medicine. This is something that Chen Zhong himself, not to mention his fifth-level master, can't do.

This is not the most important thing.

The point is that some of his new medical concepts are things that Chen Zhong has never heard of before.

What bacteria, cells, viruses, microorganisms, immunity..., he was confused.

He is a doctor at the peak of the fourth level, the head of the Zhao imperial physician, in front of him, like a beginner, knowing nothing and having to ask everything.

If someone else told him this, he would definitely think that the other person was talking nonsense.

But a person who can eradicate smallpox, a person with such solid medical knowledge, can't be making up stories. This is very likely a medical field he has never touched.

Not to mention, although he said at the beginning that he had found a cure for malaria, he never said how to cure it.

Chen Zhong thought about it all night yesterday.

Today he thought about it all day.

If he doesn't ask him clearly, he will definitely not be able to sleep tonight.

He looked at Li Nuo tiredly and said, "Doctor Li, I admit that you won. What you want is the ticket in my hand. It's not enough for me to give it to you. Don't keep it a secret with me..."

As the imperial physician, and at such a critical time point, how could he not know Li Nuo's intention?

He was not the first person to come to the door.

As early as half a year ago, the four princes had people visit him. They sent gold, silver, beauties, antiques, and various precious medicinal materials, all for the ticket in his hand.

However, he did not agree to anyone's request at that time.

He was the Imperial Physician, and he had already achieved the pinnacle of medical profession in the court. No matter which prince was elected, he would not be promoted, so there was no need to choose sides.

Besides, he had no interest in the gifts they sent.

But this time, he was completely manipulated.

He is credited with curing malaria. Which doctor can resist this temptation?

This is not only a surge in cultivation, but also brings them supreme glory and a good reputation that will be passed down to future generations.

The vast majority of officials are neutral until formal elections.

But as long as it can provide enough benefits, there is no absolute neutrality.

Chen Zhong actually doesn't care much about who becomes the prince.

But he cares about his cultivation, and even more about his posthumous reputation...

Which prince can give him these, so why not give them this vote?

Li Nuo looked at the haggard imperial doctor and said hurriedly: "What are you talking about, Mr. Chen? I really wanted to accompany my wife yesterday..."

Chen Zhong waved his hand and said: "I will stop going around in circles with Doctor Li. The vote in my hand can be voted for the fourth prince when the time comes..."

Li Nuo smiled and shook his head and said: "I am not from the Zhao Kingdom. Which prince of the Zhao Kingdom is in power has nothing to do with me..."

Chen Zhong was slightly startled. Didn't he want to choose the fourth prince himself?

From his words, it seemed that he did not support any of the princes.

So what he and Sun Jing were doing at his home couldn't be to amuse him on purpose, right?

No one is that bored.

At this time, a figure walked out of the kitchen.

Zhao Zhiyi put on an apron, smoothed her hair in front of her forehead, and said to Li Nuo: "Wash your hands, it's time to eat..."

Dr. Chen Ling glanced back, then turned his head again, intending to ask clearly.

But soon, his expression froze and he turned his head again.

When he saw the sixth princess wearing an apron and standing at the door of the kitchen, his expression fell into deep thought.

After an unknown amount of time, he looked back at Li Nuo again and said, "I understand."

He held out two fingers to Li Nuo and said: "Two requests. First, I should also be the deputy editor of that medical book. Second, when you cure malaria, you can take me with you..."

These two requirements couldn't be simpler for Li Nuo.

After the manual is compiled, let the imperial doctor read it over and correct any typos, and you can give him a deputy editor.

As for his second request, just like what he had done with Dr. Sun before, Li Nuo provided direction guidance and it was up to them to implement it. Li Nuo did not major in medicine and did not care to give them some credit.

He extended his palm to Doctor Chen and said, "Deal."

The two of them slapped each other hard in the air. Doctor Chen looked back and said, "That's it. I'll take my leave and won't disturb Doctor Li and his wife while they eat..."

Without waiting for Li Nuo to persuade him to stay, he left on his own initiative.

He was surprised that the lady he was talking about was actually the sixth princess.

It's really unbelievable that the Sixth Princess has actually made a lifelong commitment to him. No wonder he would help the Sixth Princess like this.

However, the Sixth Princess did not supervise the country. Even if she had her own vote, she would not be able to compete with the other princes.

Doctor Chen ordered him to walk out of the small courtyard. Song Yiren, who was holding a spatula, poked her head out of the kitchen. Seeing that there was no one else, she turned back to the kitchen...

Early the next morning, when Li Nuo got up, Yi Ren was not awake yet.

Li Nuo also pretended not to know that she was pretending to sleep. As usual, he gave her a good morning kiss and walked out of the room.

Song Yiren was lying on the bed. Although she did not open her eyes, a faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

After a while, Li Nuo and the sixth princess walked out of the princess mansion side by side.

They have important things to do.

Today is the official holiday of the State of Zhao. He had previously promised to go to his house for dinner.

After hearing the servant's report, Zhang Xiang, the Minister of Household Affairs, went to the courtyard to greet him. He first saluted Zhao Zhiyi, then looked at what Li Nuo was carrying and said, "Brother Li, what are you doing? Why are you still here?" I brought something..."

Li Nuo smiled slightly and said: "Brother Zhang, don't get me wrong. This is not something valuable, nor is it for you. It is a medicinal material for the old lady to replenish her body. Add it to the porridge and stew it every two days. It will nourish the body." Very effective…”

Hearing that it was for his mother, the pretentious expression on Shangshu Hube's face immediately disappeared, replaced with a smile, and said: "Brother Li has a heart, he has a heart..."

Li Nuo took advantage of the situation and asked: "How is the old lady's health?"

The Secretary of the Ministry of Finance held his waist and said: "Seeing that it is getting better day by day, I cultivated a vegetable garden yesterday. I helped for a while, but I was so tired that I couldn't even lift my waist. She did a better job than me." There are many, but it’s like nothing happens…”

"Brother Zhang is too weak. No matter how busy he is with official duties, he still needs to exercise properly."

Li Nuo warned him, and then said: "It just so happened that I brought silver needles today. They were originally used to regulate the old lady's body. I will also give you some acupuncture. Although it cannot improve your physical condition, it can cure your back pain immediately... "

The Minister of Hubu smiled and said: "Okay, okay, if I have a headache or fever in the future, I don't need to go to the imperial doctor. I can go directly to Brother Li."

Li Nuo smiled and said: "You are always welcome..."

Today in Zhang Mansion, besides eating, Li Nuo also did a lot of things.

Helped the Minister of Hubu to treat his back injury.

Help the old lady take care of her body.

In addition, he also taught Shangshu Hubu a set of health-preserving exercises. He spent a quarter of an hour in the morning and evening to practice. Within a month, there were immediate results.

After doing this, Li Nuo's medical energy was a little overdrawn.

This kind of overdraft is a double overdraft of physical strength and mental energy. Even with his body at the second level of martial arts, it is somewhat too much to bear.

When he walked out of Zhang's Mansion, his feet couldn't help but feel weak. Fortunately, Zhao Zhiyi held him in time.

At this moment, Li Nuo could finally understand what it was like for those imperial doctors who were forced by King Chun to treat him.

It's no wonder that doctors treat people, but if they want to use true energy, the price must be high.

At this moment, in the Zhang Mansion, Mrs. Zhang moved her body and said with a smile: "The medical skills of the little miracle doctor are really superb. They are not much worse than those of the imperial doctors..."

Shangshu Hube felt the pain in his old waist and sighed slightly.

The old lady asked him: "Why does my son sigh?"

The Secretary of the Ministry of Finance said: "Brother Li and the Sixth Princess are probably here for King Sheng, but they have not spoken. Unfortunately, among the four princes selected by your Majesty to supervise the country, only King Sheng is the least suitable for the throne. The others The three of them are just the taller ones among the short ones..."

The old lady said: "As a woman, I shouldn't say anything about national affairs. However, since His Majesty has entrusted you with such an important position, you should be responsible for the world and the people. You should not be held responsible for personal grudges." It affects decisions concerning the world..."

The Secretary of the Ministry of Finance said: "What my mother taught me is, but you don't have to talk about women's education every day. What's wrong with women's education? The Holy Emperor is also a woman's education. Her achievements surpass those of many kings. Although the Sixth Princess is As a daughter, all the princes do--Huh?"

As he spoke, his tone slowed down and his voice became lower and lower.

Li Nuo and the Sixth Princess had just left. The Minister of Household Affairs looked towards the door of his home and suddenly fell into deep thought.

On the carriage.

Zhao Zhiyi looked at Li Nuo, who was leaning against the carriage with a pale face, and couldn't help but feel distressed in his heart, and said softly: "Thank you for your hard work..."

Li Nuo smiled and said, "There's nothing hard to do."

The status of the Six Ministers of the State of Zhao was far higher than that of Daxia, and he had to strive for it no matter what.

After returning to the Princess Mansion, Li Nuo's physical strength recovered somewhat. Instead of resting, he found Dr. Sun and planned to visit the other two imperial doctors with him.

Zhao Zhiyi grabbed his wrist and said, "You should rest at home today. It won't be too late to go tomorrow."

Li Nuo shook his head and said, "There are things tomorrow, don't worry, I'll be fine."

Watching him and Dr. Sun leave, Zhao Zhiyi returned to the courtyard alone.

Song Yiren was practicing, and Zhao Zhiyi was sitting at the stone table and suddenly asked: "Miss Song, how did you and Mr. Li meet?"

Speaking of this matter, Song Yiren simply put away her sword, sat down opposite her, raised her chin slightly, and said: "We have known each other since we were born. When we were one year old, we even made an engagement..."

"Ah, then why is it your sister who married him?"

"..."

Mentioning this matter, Song Yiren felt aggrieved and angry again. She gritted her teeth and said, "This matter is a long story..."

…

Huang Mansion.

A young man walked into the hall and had to refill tea for the young guest and his master for the first time.

There was deep shock in his eyes.

This young man, even younger than his age, could talk to his master, who was the imperial physician, for an hour about medicine. The master, who was in the fourth realm of the medical family, would ask him questions from time to time.

Isn't this a senior medical doctor who has good looks?

A quarter of an hour later, the young man and Uncle Sun left.

He walked into the hall and was about to put away the tea sets, but he saw the master standing up and sitting down for a while, scratching his head and scratching his head, with an extremely troubled expression on his face.

The next moment, he saw his master running out, and soon his shouts could be heard outside the door.

"Doctor Li, stay!"

…

Prince Sheng's Mansion.

"Two days ago, he went to the home of the imperial physician. Yesterday, the imperial physician went to the princess's residence. Early this morning, he and the sixth princess went to the residence of the Minister of the Ministry of Finance. Then, he went to see the two imperial doctors. In their Stayed at home for a long time..."

After listening to the reports from his men, King Sheng showed a smile on his face.

He also fought for the three tickets from Tai Hospital.

But as soon as his people made the request, others had already seen him off.

Li Nuo was able to stay in their house for such a long time and even let the imperial physician take the initiative to look for him. Combined with his relationship with the medical family, it is very likely that Li Nuo could help him win the support of the three officials of the imperial hospital.

And the Minister of Hubu is his dream supporter.

It is said that he and Zhiyi were the saviors of the mother of the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance.

The Minister of Hubu is well-known as a filial son, so he must be repaid for such a great kindness.

Last time, he easily allocated funds to himself, which already speaks volumes.

When the time comes, the chances of supporting him are high.

In addition, he used the one hundred thousand taels to bribe several officials, which made his chances of winning even greater.

King Sheng breathed a long sigh of relief.

With a sister like this, what more could a husband ask for...

At this time, his subordinates reported another incident.

The people under King Shun, King An, and King Xiang jointly impeached several officials under him. The evidence is conclusive, and the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple have taken over the case.

King Sheng frowned, this matter put him in a dilemma.

The Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple are now in charge of him.

Save them, you might be accused of covering up.

If he doesn't save them, he will lose himself. He spent a lot of money to win over these people, and they all have votes.

He looked at someone beside him and asked, "Mr. Lin, what do you think?"

The elegant man said, "In my opinion, Your Highness should deal with them according to the law. This is a trap set for you by the other three princes. If you choose to shield them, they will turn their spearheads to Your Highness. We can't let their evil plan succeed..."

King Sheng frowned and said, "The Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple are in my hands. I can still delay it. If I deal with them, won't it make the officials who support me feel disappointed?"

He can still figure out the things here.

Sheltering is not a bad thing. At most, he will be criticized a few times. Both departments are in his hands. What can they do to him?

If he deals with his own people, not only will he lose money and votes in vain, but what will those neutral officials think of him? Who would be willing to join such a person?

At this time, the elegant man said again: "Don't worry, Your Highness, those officials are on the same boat with Your Highness, and they will not change their minds no matter what. Your Highness's move can just crush the rumors about Your Highness in the folks before, and completely win the hearts of the people. He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world. By doing so, you can get the support of those censors, isn't it giving up the small for the big..."

In this matter, King Sheng felt that Mr. Lin was wrong.

Even if he dealt with these people, those censors might not support him.

He opened his mouth to refute, but looking at Mr. Lin's face, his expression was dazed for a while, and he felt more and more that what he said made sense. He nodded in a daze and said, "Mr. Lin is right..."
