The Road to Fame as an Imperial Physician

After the little eunuch read the imperial decree and left, Xie Lingbai came back to his senses, but after he came back to his senses, he was still in a daze and didn't know how to react. What did the little eunuch say just now?I was actually appointed as an imperial physician by the emperor, what is the situation?

Thinking about it, he hurriedly shouted to Wen Changheng: "Master, pinch me quickly to see if I'm dreaming."

"It's not a dream."

Wen Changheng answered him directly, but Xie Lingbai still felt that it was a little unreal. Just now, he was struggling with the fact that he was not admitted to the Tai Hospital. He was finally dismissed, but now he is told that he can enter the Tai Hospital again. This is simply a joke. He played, let him experience the ups and downs of life in a short period of time.

"So I should be glad that I don't have to be a eunuch—"

Yun Molian was a little surprised when he heard his words: "What? Are you going to be a eunuch?"

"If I go to be a eunuch, I will definitely take you with me!"

"Tch, I'm not that interested, but what's going on? I saw you guys go out for so long, and I thought it was a celebration, so in fact, you didn't pass the exam?"

Xie Lingbai sighed: "I don't know, I've obviously performed very normally, at least I'm quite satisfied with myself, but the announced list doesn't have my name, I really can't figure it out."

"Could it be that the medical skills of the people who took the imperial examination this year are too good. After all, you have only studied for nine months. Some people may have studied for several years. Compared with them, you must be inferior in terms of foundation and experience. Some, it’s normal not to be able to choose.”

Xie Lingbai couldn't think of other possibilities for the time being, so he could only spread his hands and say, "Maybe..."

Yun Molian and Xie Lingbai thought so, but Wen Changheng didn't agree. The reason why the emperor made the decree in person must be because he had heard about Xie Lingbai. Combined with what happened in the examination room that day, it could only be a few people The examiner mentioned it.

And the reason why the chief examiner brought up Xie Lingbai in front of the emperor should be that he was quite satisfied with Xie Lingbai's performance.That being the case, then Xie Lingbai must be on the list, but now his name is not there.

So it is very likely that someone deliberately refused to let him in. After thinking about it, it was probably instigated by the person who wanted to kill him all this time. However, talking about these things would only add to Xie Lingbai's troubles, so he didn't intend to mention them.

Anyway, the ultimate goal is achieved. Xie Lingbai has successfully become an imperial physician, and can enter the imperial hospital to investigate the truth. There is no need for him to worry about these conjectures. He should keep it in his heart, and at most continue Stay more mindful and act cautiously in the days ahead.

Because he was going to report to the palace the next day, Xie Lingbai didn't dare to sleep too late the first night, so he washed up early and lay down to rest.

If they look listless when they report tomorrow, it will definitely affect their impression of themselves.

The next day, he woke up early in the morning and looked in the mirror. He was not listless as worried about last night, but after all, it was his first time as an imperial physician, so he was a little nervous, but he was more looking forward to it.

He had long wanted to take a look at the place where his father stayed, the place where Wen Changheng was in charge, the legendary imperial hospital, what would it be like?I don't know if it will be very different from what I imagined.

The people there are all medical experts, and they will definitely learn a lot by then.

Because Wen Changheng is no longer an envoy, he did not accompany Xie Lingbai into the palace, but sent a few secret guards to follow him secretly to protect him.

Xie Lingbai arrived at the gate of the palace early, and after the other seven people had also arrived, a young eunuch led them inside.

"Hey, why is it you, didn't you say you didn't pass the exam?"

Hearing this, Xie Lingbai turned his head and looked over, and found that the person walking beside him was the person he was questioning in front of the ranking list yesterday, and he smiled and said, "I... also passed the exam."

At this time, another one said: "I heard that there is someone appointed by the emperor this time, so it must be you?"

"Really? The emperor knows you?"

Xie Ling smiled. He didn't know what to say, because he himself didn't know why the emperor ordered him to be an imperial physician. At this time, the little eunuch who led the way took a look at them, and they immediately silenced and didn't dare to speak any more. said.

The palace is really big. They walked from the entrance of the palace to the vicinity of the imperial hospital. It took about an hour (about half an hour) for them to walk. At this time, officials from the upper and lower dynasties happened to come out.

Xie Lingbai looked over curiously. He didn't pay attention to his feet and accidentally bumped into someone. He quickly said, "Sorry, are you okay?"

"Tsk, who doesn't have eyes when walking?!"

The other party was a chubby middle-aged man. Xie Lingbai didn't know what official position the official uniform he was wearing represented, but judging by his arrogant appearance, he knew it must be not low.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to."

"You still have to quibble when you bump into someone, which palace do you work in?"

The little eunuch leading the way said, "General Cao, he is the new imperial physician."

"Emperor doctor? Are all the current imperial doctors so rude?!"

Xie Lingbai was stunned, and didn't know what to do for a while, he really didn't understand the rules in the palace, but he had heard about this General Cao before, wasn't he the target of the fourth princess who escaped marriage.

No wonder the fourth princess wanted to run away from marriage. Not to mention the age of this general, he was also full of official airs, so he was not easy to get along with at first glance.

"Then what does General Cao want from me?"

"There is really no rule at all. Kneel here for an hour first, and then talk about it after you realize your mistake."

Xie Lingbai was a little speechless, he just bumped into it accidentally and apologized, why should he kneel here for an hour!

"Why are you still dawdling? Want to go to prison?"

Xie Lingbai looked helplessly at the little eunuch who was leading the way. The little eunuch shrugged his shoulders and said that he could do nothing. General Cao was very powerful in the court and had military power in his hands, so naturally he didn't take others seriously.

A few officials passed by, but they all held the attitude that more things are worse than less things, so they just watched calmly, and no one was willing to step forward to help persuade them.

"What's your name?"

"Xie Lingbai."

"Xie Lingbai, it seems that you want to have a fine wine because you don't want to drink a toast."

Xie Lingbai gritted her teeth, feeling that she might be doomed, she never expected to encounter such a thing just after entering the palace, no wonder Zhao Lingrui and the fourth princess didn't like the palace so much.

"What's the noise in the inner courtyard of the palace?"

Suddenly there was a somewhat familiar voice, Xie Lingbai looked up and found that the person walking over was actually Wen Hongyan.

When General Cao saw Wen Hongyan, his expression changed a bit, and he said, "It's just a little impolite doctor who offended me but refused to make amends. This general will punish me a little."

Wen Hongyan looked at Xie Lingbai and said, "You bumped into General Cao?"

"Yes, but I've already apologized."

"General Cao, since he has already apologized, why do you have to hold on to it? You are just a junior. It is normal for you to just enter the palace and not understand the rules. I think you and I were officials when we first entered the court. Sometimes, I don’t understand a lot of things.”

Xie Lingbai didn't expect that Wen Hongyan would speak for him, and he immediately had a better impression of this Prime Minister, not as unkind as the master said.

"I didn't expect Wen Xiangye to speak for a little imperial doctor."

"Oh? Are you a doctor?"

Wen Hongyan asked Xie Lingbai this question, Xie Lingbai nodded and said: "Yes, today is the first day I have entered the palace, and I haven't been to the imperial hospital yet."

"Little bastard refused to come by himself, so I sent you."

Xie Lingbai: "..." How should he answer this?

General Cao at the side heard their conversation and asked in confusion, "Master Xiang knows him?"

Wen Hongyan said calmly, "Well, my son."

General Cao: "..."

Xie Lingbai: "??"

Onlookers: "!!"

The scene was silent for a moment, and everyone didn't know what to say. Some people even suspected that they had heard it wrong. General Cao asked after a long time: "If I remember correctly, General Wen seems to have only one son named Wen Xun, and he just said that his surname is Xie."

"Oh, my adoptive son, can't you?"

"It's...it's okay." General Cao said to Xie Lingbai after finishing speaking: "Since you are the adopted son of Lord Wen, then let's forget about it, and remember not to be reckless next time in the palace. of."

"Yes, thank you General Cao, thank you Wen..." Prime Minister Wen said that he was the adopted son in front of so many people, so what should he call him?

Fortunately, Wen Hongyan didn't care about these titles, and said to the little eunuch who led the way: "It's getting late, why don't you take them to the imperial hospital to report?"

"Yes, Mr. Xiang."

Hearing this, the little eunuch quickly led them forward. Xie Lingbai couldn't help but look back at Wen Hongyan after walking a few steps, but Wen Hongyan had already left.

"So you are Wen Xiangye's adopted son. The villain just now has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai."

The little eunuch said to Xie Lingbai, and the rest of the people were also wondering if they had offended Xie Lingbai just now, Xie Lingbai quickly waved and said: "Actually... these are just... how should I put it, don't take it to heart .”

Xie Lingbai touched the sweat on his forehead. He could imagine that the days to come would be like this. After the matter was clarified, he would return to Xixia City immediately.

In the future, never come back here again, the palace is really scary!

After walking forward for a while, we arrived at the legendary Imperial Hospital. Xie Lingbai looked up at the plaque. This was where his father was on duty.

When I walked in, I could smell the smell of medicine, and suddenly remembered the days when I was doing odd jobs in Yucaoxuan. The master said that he didn't want to be a doctor anymore, but in the end he chose a business related to medicine.

"Master He, the eight new imperial physicians have already arrived."

He Lianzhi turned around and looked over, he was still holding a piece of medicinal material in his hand, Xie Lingbai remembered that He Lianzhi liked Wen Changheng again, so they are rivals in love now.

But the bad thing is that now he has to obey the management of this rival in love. After all, he is the oldest in the hospital. Alas, it would be great if Wen Changheng was there.

But thinking about it carefully, if Wen Changheng is willing to go back to Tai Hospital, wouldn't it be giving He Lianzhi a chance to see him every day, which seems even more inappropriate.

Forget it, the soldiers came to cover the water and the soil, so many people watched, he wouldn't make things too hard for him.

"I've read your information, and I have a general understanding. After you get your official uniforms later, go back and change them, and then the person in charge of leading you will arrange what you should do."

"Yes……"

Xie Lingbai followed those people to get their official uniforms and changed into them, and found that the other seven people had made corresponding arrangements, but he hadn't.

"Emissary He Yuan, what should I do?"

Although Xie Lingbai didn't want to deal with He Lianzhi very much, there was nothing he could do now, so he could only bite the bullet and go forward to ask. He Lianzhi seemed to have just discovered his existence.

"Oh, because you weren't on the list at the beginning, so I didn't make any arrangements. How about it, I'm going to ask Concubine Liu Gui for a pulse later, and you can come with me."

"Yes……"

Concubine Liu Gui?It's the one I met in the gazebo last time, but Zhao Lingrui said that Concubine Liu Gui has a bad temper, so I have to be careful later.
