The Road to Fame as an Imperial Physician

"Wen Xun? Is he very powerful?"

Xie Lingbai asked with some doubts, Xiao Sun was speechless: "Isn't that right, you keep saying that you want to be an imperial physician, but you don't even know about Wen Xun?"

"Why should you know?"

Young Master Xie used to only know how to eat, drink and play all day long, and never cared about these court affairs, so naturally he didn't know much about it.

"Wen Xun is He Yuanshi's senior brother. When Wen Xun took over the Imperial Hospital seven years ago, he was only 17 years old. He was the youngest envoy of the Imperial Hospital in our Xi Kingdom. I heard from my master that Wen Xun is a genius in medical skills." Extraordinary talent, back then he was a well-known figure in the imperial city."

"So powerful... then where is he now?"

Xiao Sun felt a little lost: "I don't know where to go."

"I don't know where to go?"

"He resigned five years ago, and he seemed to have evaporated from the world after that. I heard that the current emperor sent many people to look for him, hoping that he can go back."

"After only two years as an envoy, you resigned. Why?"

"I don't know the specific reason. My master just mentioned it as a lament for the loss of the medical profession."

"Wen Xun... must be a good person."

Xie Lingbai spoke firmly, but Xiao Sun asked doubtfully, "How do you know?"

"Because my master's surname is Wen—"

"Young Master Xie, I'm afraid you have been poisoned by Boss Wen..." After finishing speaking, Xiao Sun got up and took the sorted medicinal materials to the grinding place.

Xie Lingbai thought of Wen Changheng, and was a little worried. If he found out that he came to help in the quarantine area, he wondered if he would be angry.

Because he sneaked out, Xie Lingbai didn't dare to stay in the isolation area for too long, so he left in the afternoon, and happened to meet He Lianzhi when he came out.

"Heyuan Envoy..."

He Lianzhi glanced at him and said with a smile, "It's you..."

"Well, I'm going home, where is Court Envoy He?"

"Go to the yamen."

"Envoy He Yuan, is this epidemic difficult?"

"Any disease that has not been seen before requires a process of research. If it is difficult, it will take more effort, but there is not so much time to waste for the time being."

Xie Lingbai understood the meaning of this sentence, several people had already died of illness in the morning, if this continues, more people may die by then.

"Although you have studied medicine for a short time, you are much better than many apprentices who have studied medicine for half a year or even a year. Have you always studied medicine by yourself?"

"That's not true. Someone taught me some things. There are many medical books that I can't understand. A doctor was kind enough to annotate most of the medical books for me."

"Medical books are difficult to understand, and it is hard to understand. There are still nearly five months until the imperial physician selection meeting. I hope to see your outstanding performance at that time."

"Thank you Court Envoy He, I will definitely work hard."

He Lianzhi's smile was very gentle, giving people a very comfortable feeling. It goes without saying that Xie Lingbai's medical skills learned during this period of time can be affirmed by others, or be affirmed by the envoy of the imperial hospital.

"This time, thanks to the envoy He Yuan who came to Xixia City, otherwise, the epidemic situation does not know what will happen. Did the emperor know about the epidemic situation?"

"No, I just passed by and heard about it."

"The Imperial City is so far away from Xiya City, where was the Envoy He Yuan going?"

The smile on He Lianzhi's face faded, and he seemed to be depressed a lot. He looked ahead and sighed, "Just walking around occasionally."

"Oh, after winter, the scenery will be better—"

"I didn't do it for the sights, I just thought... Maybe I'll meet him one day..." He Lianzhi said with a wry smile, and murmured, "I know it's impossible..."

"Him? Is Heyuan Envoy looking for someone?"

"It's nothing, I have to go to the county government, so I won't say much."

"it is good……"

The attendant brought the carriage, He Lianzhi nodded towards Xie Lingbai, and then got into the carriage, the attendant was a little puzzled why He Yuanshi seemed very unhappy, he glanced at Xie Lingbai standing beside him , thinking about what my lord was talking about with this person...

The carriage drove towards the county government office. He Lianzhi raised his hand and pressed his temple. He hadn't had a good rest recently, and he was so busy this morning that he didn't even have time to eat. Now that he's quiet, he feels like he's in a hurry. Very tired.

There were relatively few pedestrians on the street yesterday. This morning, I heard that the imperial court sent envoys from the Imperial Hospital to control the epidemic, so the street became lively again.

He Lianzhi lifted the curtain of the car and looked out at the scene on the non-stop street. It has been five years, a full five years, and he has traveled all over so many towns, but there is still no news...

He sighed, and was about to put down the car curtain, but his gaze caught a glimpse of a familiar figure, and he froze all of a sudden.

"Stop, stop!"

The attendant stopped the carriage quickly, and was about to turn around to ask what happened, but before he could ask, he saw He Lianzhi jumped out of the carriage and ran back.

"My lord, what's the matter, my lord?"

The attendant had never seen such a gaffe of He Lianzhi, and was so frightened that he dropped the carriage and chased after him, but He Lianzhi didn't turn his head at all, and scanned the pedestrians on the street with his eyes.

"A Xun... A Xun..."

Pedestrians on the street cast puzzled looks one after another, not knowing what happened to this handsome and well-dressed young man who suddenly seemed to go crazy.

"My lord, my lord, don't scare the little ones."

"Is it you, Xun... Please don't go...don't go..."

Because there were many pedestrians, He Lianzhi couldn't run fast. In the end, because he didn't pay attention to the road under his feet, he stepped on a stone and fell directly to the ground.

"grown ups!"

The attendant was startled, and hurried forward, but saw that He Lianzhi didn't get up anymore, and just knelt and propped his hands on the ground, tears dripping down on the ground.

At this moment, a pair of shoes suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, and He Lianzhi raised his head excitedly and shouted, "Xun..." But it was Zhao Lingrui who he saw.

Zhao Lingrui had a ghostly expression on his face, and asked in confusion: "You, are you He Lianzhi?" He was still thinking about what could arouse He Lianzhi's emotions last night, but today he saw such a scene .

"You just called... A Xun? Did you see Wen Xun?"

He Lianzhi looked a little lost, and whispered: "I can't find him... I'm the one who suffered the consequences... I can't find him again..."

"I can't find anything, isn't he just here?!"

He Lianzhi was stunned, "What did you say?"

"I said Wen Xun is in Xixia City..."

"Are you lying to me?"

"I met him a few days ago. You are his younger brother. Could it be that he didn't tell you?"

With trembling hands, He Lianzhi murmured: "He's here...he's still alive...I'm not dreaming...I can see him again..." Then he finally broke down and cried, covering his face.

"What about living and dying? Didn't you do it for him when he left the imperial city..."

Zhao Lingrui silenced it, because He Lianzhi who was sitting on the ground in front of him was crying like a child, but the joy from the heart couldn't be concealed.

He was crying with joy... He was happy because he finally found Wen Xun. Zhao Lingrui was a little puzzled. Didn't their brothers and sisters always have a good relationship?But why Wen Xun never told He Lianzhi that he was in Xixia City?

At the corner of the street not far ahead, Wen Changheng turned around and glanced back, feeling as if he heard someone calling him just now.

"Master, there are a lot of people gathered around..."

Wei Ze pointed to the back, Wen Changheng didn't express any opinion, turned around and continued to turn around the street corner, heading towards the isolation area.

After walking for a while, he saw the person in front of him who was buying candied haws. He stopped and watched from a distance.

Xie Lingbai bought two bunches of candied haws, paid the money, picked up a bunch and took a bite, before he bit it off, he saw Wen Changheng, he was startled, and directly bit the candy wrapped outside.

It's over, why is the master here?He chewed the candied haws in his mouth with some embarrassment, walked forward after swallowing, and stopped in front of Wen Changheng.

"Master, what a coincidence..."

Wen Changheng looked down at the candied haws in his hand, and said lightly, "Are you out to buy this today?"

Xie Lingbai knew that she definitely couldn't hide it, she couldn't buy snacks for the whole afternoon yesterday, and buy candied haws for the whole day today.

"I'm sorry master, I..."

"Xie Lingbai, it's a seasonal epidemic, do you think it's just an ordinary cold? Don't you know that you will lose your life if you catch it?!"

Xie Lingbai was sure that Wen Changheng was really angry this time, and he quickly admitted his mistake: "I know I was wrong, but I didn't do anything, just help sort out and grind the medicinal materials, and ah, the envoy from the Tai Hospital came , I believe it should be fine soon."

Wen Changheng frowned: "Who's here?"

"He Lianzhi He Yuanshi, master, have you heard of him? He is very powerful and easy to get along with. He has a good temper and no official airs. He even praised me."

Wen Changheng's complexion was not very good, and he said in a deep voice, "When we see him in the future, stay away from him."

"Why, why?"

"Also, if you come to the isolation area next time, don't go back to Wenfu."

"Master, I know I was wrong."

Xie Lingbai admitted his mistake, but seeing that Wen Changheng still had a serious face, he was a little anxious, but just as he was about to explain, he felt dizzy suddenly, but it was only for a moment.

He shook his head, followed Wen Changheng who was already walking forward, and asked, "Master, why didn't you take the carriage today? Master, do you eat candied haws?"

All the way back home, no matter what Xie Lingbai asked, he couldn't get a response, Xie Lingbai was a little flustered, it's over, it seems that Wen Changheng is very angry this time...

He suddenly regretted coming to the quarantine area secretly. He knew that he should discuss it first, but he really just came to study, and he did learn a lot.

Xie Lingbai felt a little stuffy in his heart, and the dizzy feeling just now came again. Is he out of breath?No, shouldn't it be Wen Changheng who is in a hurry?

Sigh, let's figure out how to beg for mercy later, it seems that I can't go to the quarantine area in the future, and if I go again, I really have to pack up and leave.

Xie Lingbai tried his best to ignore the slight pain in his head, and entered the mansion with a sigh.
