The Road to Fame as an Imperial Physician

"Fortunately, it's just a little fever, not too serious, probably because I caught a cold at night."

"Please, how is it possible that the weather is so hot now."

"You don't know this. When the weather is hot, we often sleep without covering the quilt. We sleep in the middle of the night and the temperature is low, and we are easy to catch cold, especially if we sleep with the windows open."

Zhao Lingrui looked at him with some amusement, and Xie Lingbai asked suspiciously: "What kind of eyes are you? Don't believe me? If you don't believe me, we will go out and ask my master later, and you will know if what I said is true."

"No, I just sighed a little. I didn't expect that you are really decent now. I remember when I saw you in Xixia City, you seemed to understand nothing."

"Hmph, that's what my master taught me."

"Oh, come on, you are a master and slave, you are the master's master when you talk and shut up. I wonder if Wen Xun secretly drugged you, the kind that can control people."

Xie Lingbai gave him a supercilious look, and let him feel it for himself. The two walked outside the palace talking and laughing. The difference from Xie Lingbai walking by himself was that Zhao Lingrui was by his side, and the salutes along the way were special. many.

"You are such a trouble."

Zhao Lingrui was a little innocent when he heard the words: "Can you blame me? You think I want to do this, I wish those people would ignore me when they saw me, so that I could be more free."

"I found that everyone in your palace yearns for freedom, and the fourth princess often talks about freedom."

"Don't forget that you are also in the palace now."

"I'm different. You see, I can leave the palace at any time, but you can't."

Zhao Lingrui couldn't help reaching out and pinching his cheek, and said viciously: "Don't be shy, be careful, I will beat you later."

After finishing speaking, she put her hand down and hooked his neck, and said, "Xiaobai, do you like the imperial palace?"

The tone of this sentence was a bit deep, Xie Lingbai's eyes flashed for a moment, and then he smiled: "I will answer this question for you after we leave the palace."

"Why?"

Xie Lingbai deliberately played tricks, Zhao Lingrui felt itchy, and when the two walked out of the palace gate, they saw Wei Ze standing beside the carriage waiting from a distance.

"Wei Ze..."

"Thank you young master, the master told me to come pick you up."

Xie Lingbai climbed into the carriage with some joy, and Zhao Lingrui naturally followed. After sitting down, he hurriedly asked, "Can you talk now?"

"Okay, I don't like the palace at all."

"Why don't you like it?"

"Look at the situation just now, I can't answer you directly, because the master said that you must be very careful when speaking in the palace, otherwise it is easy to lose your head, so why do I like such a dangerous place?!"

Zhao Lingrui had nothing to say, so he could only smile in the end: "I couldn't find anything to refute for a while."

"It means that what I said makes sense."

"Okay, I can't say no to you. I think no one really likes the palace, but most of the people in the palace can't help themselves."

"I can understand that, so I sympathize with you."

Zhao Lingrui glanced at him sideways, and seeing Xie Lingbai smiling very happily, he suddenly felt a little emotional, wondering how many more opportunities the two of them would have to get along in harmony like this.

If possible, I really hope that time will pass more slowly, or even stand still.

The carriage drove slowly towards the other courtyard. When passing through a relatively quiet intersection, Wei Ze's eyes suddenly changed, and he seemed to glance to the side inadvertently.

On the top floor not far away, the archer was about to draw his bow and shoot an arrow, when a person appeared behind him and whispered: "The plan has changed."

Those archers were a little puzzled, and the man explained: "His Royal Highness is also in the carriage, so retreat first."

They nodded, and then retreated there. Wei Ze on the shaft drove the carriage calmly, and Zhao Lingrui in the carriage glanced out through the wind-blown curtain.

"What are you looking at?"

Xie Lingbai leaned over, Zhao Lingrui turned his body to block it, and said: "A beauty passed by just now."

"Really? Let me see."

"I saw it first, so naturally I can't let you see it."

Xie Lingbai gave him a look of disdain, and said with contempt: "Stingy, but I don't care for it, can it be more beautiful than my master?!"

"If Wen Xun hears your words, be careful that he kicks you out of the house and compares him to a woman."

"Whoever said that a beauty can only be a woman, men are also fine. Besides, it is an indisputable fact that my master is good-looking. If he is willing to wear women's clothes, then he must..."

Xie Lingbai was there for a while, wondering if he could find a chance for Wen Changheng to wear it for a while?But according to his personality, he definitely won't cooperate.

Seeing him like this, Zhao Lingrui sighed with a bit of resentment: "Why did Wen Xun fall in love with you!"

Xie Lingbai heard this kind of talk too much, and now she is immune, ignores it automatically, and continues to imagine some things that are impossible in reality. After thinking about it, she feels a little pity.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the other courtyard, and Xie Lingbai jumped out of the carriage and said to Zhao Lingrui who was following: "I said this morning that I want to eat roast chicken tonight, this time the cook is very good, you are lucky , I can force you to share a little bit."

Zhao Lingrui slapped him on the back and said speechlessly, "Go in and eat by yourself, I'll kill you."

"Oh? What do you mean? You still think it's too little?"

"Okay, I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do, so I won't go in. As for the roast chicken, let's eat it next time."

"It's already at the door, why don't you go in? Are you sure? It's delicious."

"Next time, I'll go first."

"Your Highness, I will see you off."

Zhao Lingrui waved his hand at Wei Ze and said, "No, I won't go back to the palace for the time being. I have something to do. Let's go." Then he really left.

Zhao Lingrui walked forward a few steps, waited until he turned the corner, and got into a carriage. The driver was his guard, Mo Zixian.

"All those people have withdrawn?"

"Yes, they found that His Highness was also in Xie Lingbai's carriage, so they withdrew."

Zhao Lingrui smiled bitterly, and then ordered: "Go back to the palace..."

"Yes……"

Xie Lingbai at the gate of the other courtyard thought that Zhao Lingrui was joking at first, but he didn't expect him to leave without looking back, and murmured: "It seems that something is really urgent, it's really not good—"

He hummed a tune and walked into the other courtyard. He smelled the aroma of vegetables as soon as he entered, and suddenly felt that the house would be better if it was smaller. Thousands of miles.

"I'm back, can I have dinner? I'm starving to death——"

Hearing what he said, the maid hurriedly went to the kitchen to serve the dishes. When she sat down for dinner, Xie Lingbai couldn't wait to pull off a chicken leg and took a bite. Well, I've been thinking about it for a long time.

"Xie Lingbai, can your eating look be any uglier?"

Yun Molian said with some disgust, Xie Lingbai hummed indifferently, and then asked Wen Changheng: "Master, do I look ugly?"

"Ugly."

Xie Lingbai: "..."

"Boss Wen is still sensible."

Yun Molian couldn't help but praised, then smiled triumphantly, Xie Lingbai took another bite of the chicken leg with hatred, chewed and swallowed, and said: "By the way, Xiao Lian is sick and caught a cold , I gave the diagnosis and treatment."

"Then how is she?"

Yun Molian asked with some concern, Xie Lingbai shook his head and said: "It should be fine, I have a little fever, but it's not serious. After taking the medicine, I should be much better tomorrow."

"That's good, it was fine yesterday."

After hearing Yun Molian's murmur, Xie Ling smiled and said, "Why do you all say that?"

"Huh? Who else said?"

"I just met Ling Rui, and he said the same thing after hearing about it."

Wen Changheng frowned when he heard the words, his expression was not very good-looking, and he thought for a while and asked, "Did the fourth princess send someone to invite you to see a doctor?"

"No, it's Concubine Liu Gui, she is also in Yulan Palace."

"What about the fourth princess? What did she say when she saw you?"

"She was asleep and didn't talk to me."

Wen Changheng's face became even uglier, Xie Lingbai asked in confusion: "Master, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay. When you prescribe the prescription, are there other imperial physicians around?"

"I didn't prescribe a prescription. Concubine Liu Gui sent a maid to follow me back to the imperial hospital to get the medicine."

"The medicine you grabbed with your own hands?"

"Ah."

"Did anyone see it?"

"There are so many people in the hospital, someone must have seen me grabbing the medicine."

"I mean, do they know what medicine you grabbed?"

"This... Everyone is busy with their own affairs, so they probably don't have time to take care of me, master, what are you trying to say? Are you afraid that I will prescribe the wrong prescription and take the wrong medicine?"

"No, maybe I'm worrying too much, let's eat."

"You have to have confidence in me. I was taught by you. This kind of minor illness is easy to deal with. The prescription will never go wrong."

Wen Changheng nodded, but felt a little uneasy in his heart. Originally, Xie Lingbai was assigned to be in charge of Xiliu Palace as soon as he entered the palace. It was a bit strange, but now the well-behaved fourth princess said that she was sick. It was too coincidental.

I hope he's just overthinking it.

After dinner, Xie Lingbai returned to his room and first wrote down his experience of the day. This habit was cultivated since he took office yesterday, and he will record it every day from now on.

After finishing writing, he took a comfortable shower, and then lay down on the bed to rest, and looked towards the door with some puzzlement, where did the master go?

At this moment, Wen Changheng was in the yard, and Wei Ze was standing beside him. Wei Ze briefly talked about what happened on the way back today, and Wen Changheng asked suspiciously, "Did you do anything?"

"No, the people in ambush should be archers, about five or six people, and there are a few people holding swords at the entrance of the alley, but the strange thing is that they seemed to have received some orders suddenly, and they all retreated in an instant. gone."

"Did anything special happen at that time?"

Wei Ze thought about it carefully, and said: "No, that place is very remote, and at that moment, there was no one passing by, so logically speaking, it should be a good time for them to do something."

Then why did it suddenly withdraw?
