Gu Feiyan knew that the Gu family had a history of thousands of years, so the genealogy must be very long. But, she never expected it would be so long. Just the catalog of the genealogy alone is two volumes of silk books.
She browsed through the catalog and found that the family tree of the Gu family is not only long, but also rich in content and complete in system, including the source of the surname, the source of migration, lineage, Shide, norms, training codes, legacy, tombs, family rules, The prefaces, praises, diagrams of ancestral tombs and temples, portraits of figures, etc. made by the patriarchs of the past dynasties.
Gu Feiyan ordered people to go to Prince Jing's mansion to ask Xia Xiaoman for a few more days off, and ordered the second master Gu to stay and look for them. In this way, the lonely family stayed for three days and three nights.
She found several branch families with medical inheritance in the genealogy, and also found the rumored doctors and pharmacists. It's a pity that these branch families are not hermit families. Except for a few celebrities with superb medical skills and superb medicine skills in the ancestors, the successors are all mediocre, and some of them are not even passed down.
It has been three days, and there are still more than 20 volumes of silk books left, and the three branch families have not searched.
The Second Master Gu sighed, "Yan'er, what are you looking for? It's been three days, let me forget it?"
Gu Erye only roughly guessed that Gu Feiyan wanted to find someone who inherited medicine from the Gu family, but he was not very clear about the specifics.
Gu Feiyan ignored him, and continued to open a volume of silk books. Her face was full of exhaustion and persistence.
This volume of silk script records the situation of the Youshui Gu clan.
"Youshui? That Youshui river on the ice sea?" Gu Feiyan asked suspiciously.
"It refers to the Youshui Mountain City in the upper reaches of the Youshui River. Some members of our family have indeed moved there." Gu Erye can only answer so much. Although he is the head of the family, he has never looked through the genealogy, let alone For repairs, I don't know much about the inheritance of family lineage and clan branches.
Gu Feiyan didn't ask any more questions, she flipped through the pages but was suddenly pleasantly surprised. She discovered that the Youshui Gu family has inherited the Gu family's unique acupuncture and medicinal bathing techniques, and has always been hidden in Youshui, a hermit family.
Gu Feiyan became excited, and quickly asked Gu Erye to find out the lineage map of Youshui Gu's lineage. Who knew that the lineage map of Youshui's lineage was only recorded four hundred years ago.
Gu Feiyan hurriedly asked, "Is it because after retiring from the world, I have no contact with my family anymore?"
"No, it's either extinct, or the genealogy was broken at that time, and it hasn't been repaired since then."
The second master Gu said while flipping through the silk script. Soon, he found relevant information and handed it to Gu Feiyan, "Look, it's all written here!"
Gu Feiyan was dumbfounded after seeing it.
It is recorded in the silk script that the Youshui Gu clan crossed the Ice Sea four hundred years ago and moved to the Yunkong Continent south of the Ice Sea, and has not been heard from since then.
At the beginning, the ice sea could still be crossed, but now, it is simply a dead end! After finally finding a glimmer of hope, this is the result? Gu Feiyan was stunned for a while, not knowing what to say.
Continuing to look up the relevant records of the Youshui Gu family is also futile, she can only find other lines.
I don't know if she was too serious or too tired, but she didn't notice the strangeness of the small medicine pot on her waist. The small medicine cauldron has floated quietly several times, and it seems that it always wants to fly to the portrait on the side.
As night fell, Gu Feiyan and Gu Erye read all the silk books, but found nothing.
Gu Erye sat on the ground and didn't even think about it, Gu Feiyan was also exhausted and finally disappointed. She unconsciously thought of that stinky ice cube. That guy's connections don't seem to be inferior to His Highness Prince Jing's. Can he help? It's just that he keeps disappearing, where can she find him
Gu Feiyan was thinking about it when Mrs. Wang came over suddenly. As she went upstairs, she yelled, "Yan'er, someone came from Prince Jing's mansion. They said they had an urgent letter from you. They sent it to you. They are waiting in the living room."
The old deacon replied
Gu Feiyan immediately regained her spirits, and ran downstairs without saying a word, almost hitting Mrs. Wang in excitement.
In fact, apart from being excited, she was even more nervous.
There is no hope for the lonely family, and the old deacon must not let her be happy in vain.
Gu Feiyan arrived at the living room as quickly as possible, and the person who came was an eunuch under Xia Xiaoman. She received the letter and became even more nervous when she saw that the sender was Tang Jing. She thought to herself, could it be that the old deacon ignored her
However, when she opened it, she found that there was a letter in the letter, which was written by the old deacon himself. The old deacon promised to introduce her to her as a hidden doctor, but the condition was no longer to accept her as a disciple, but to accept her as a candidate for the director of Shennong Valley.
In Shennong Valley, the old deacon is equivalent to the big housekeeper. There are four to five directors under the big deacon, who both participate in and execute the decision-making. Director candidates, as the name suggests, are those who have the opportunity to become directors.
Gu Feiyan couldn't figure it out, if the old deacon wanted to train her, wouldn't it be the most straightforward to accept her as a disciple? Why take such a big step back
In fact, the old deacon had already written a letter to Emperor Tianwu to please him, and Emperor Tianwu was worried that his secret would be leaked out, and even more worried that he would not get the elixir in the future, so he declined the old deacon politely. The old deacon saw Gu Feiyan's letter and worried that she would disobey Emperor Tianwu, so he came up with this idea.
Although Gu Feiyan didn't know why, she had no time to investigate. She didn't delay for a moment, and immediately went back to Prince Jing's mansion to write back to the old deacon, agreeing to his conditions.
Although she belongs to the Imperial Pharmacy and is under the jurisdiction of Prince Jing's Mansion for the time being, she doesn't need anyone from the ward for this matter. The director candidate is just a name, not a clear identity. At least, she was not from Shennonggu before becoming a director.
After the reply letter was sent, Gu Feiyan's heart, which had been anxious for several days, finally calmed down. She immediately found someone to report the good news to Cheng's house.
In the following days, Gu Feiyan hurriedly waited for the old deacon's reply while hurrying up to help Emperor Tianwu refine the elixir.
As for Cheng Yifei's situation, Mrs. Lin had already sent someone to inform her. After Cheng Yifei woke up, his mood was fairly stable, and he didn't want to see her, so he said to wait for her.
Three days later at night, Gu Feiyan received another urgent letter from Tang Jing, which was still in the middle of the letter, and besides the old deacon's reply, there was also a letter of recommendation attached. The old deacon asked her to take a letter of recommendation to a place called Yanyunjian and find a hotel called Nanshan Inn. He said that he would give the recommendation letter to the shopkeeper of the inn, and the shopkeeper would take her to find the hermit doctor. Of course, a referral letter can only seek medical treatment once.
What is the name of this hidden doctor, is he alone, or does he belong to that hidden family? Gu Feiyan didn't know anything, and the old deacon's letter didn't say it clearly.
Gu Feiyan still trusted the old deacon, she had no time to think about it, and immediately asked Xia Xiaoman about the place Yanyunjian.
However, not long after she left Mingyue Residence, she saw a familiar figure hurriedly heading towards the bedroom.
His Royal Highness Prince Jing has finally returned home!
The story of Cheng Yifei has been spread all over the city by those who are interested in it. General Qi even mentioned it in the early court, so it is impossible for His Royal Highness Prince Jing not to know about it.
Gu Feiyan didn't hesitate, and immediately strode over, "His Royal Highness Prince Jing, stay a while, this servant wants to report something!"
