"I heard that almost all the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital were killed by Princess Mochou. In my opinion, these five hundred taels of gold are really not easy to earn. It's just a cure. If you gain both fame and fortune, how can you If it can’t be cured, I’m afraid I won’t be able to come back.”
"What kind of strange disease is this? Even the palace doctors can't cure it?"
"It was said that Princess Mochou had brought back an injured man. The man had been unconscious all this time. Princess Mochou was almost going crazy with anxiety, and the doctors were helpless. Then she got angry and swung the sword to kill the doctors. Cut them all down, not a single one left.”
"How do you know this kind of palace secret? You know it so clearly."
"Have you forgotten? My family is an imperial merchant. We must go in and out of the palace dozens of times a year? I just sent a batch of goods into the palace a while ago, and I happened to hear a few palace maids discussing this matter."
Xia Yuanqiu was so absorbed in listening that he didn't even notice that the waiter came to serve the food. He didn't wake up until the waiter called three times.
"Sir, eat it while it's hot. It won't taste good once it cools down." The waiter thoughtfully filled a cup of tea for her.
Xia Yuanqiu nodded: "I understand, you go down first!"
After the waiter left, those people stopped talking about these things. She felt upset, so she took a few bites and went back to her room.
Early the next morning, when the waiter came to knock on the door to deliver breakfast, no one opened the door no matter how hard he knocked. With a little push, the door opened. There was no one in the room. There was an ingot of silver on the table, and there was a silver coin next to it. A note with rent money written on it.
In the Beiming Capital, Xia Yuanqiu disguised herself as a middle-aged man and entered the city among a group of vegetable farmers. As soon as she entered the city, she looked around for the emperor's list. Sure enough, there were emperor's lists posted on various notice walls, and there were also some emperors. The list had already been taken off, so she hurriedly took off the imperial list and rushed towards the palace.
When she rushed to the palace gate, there were already two doctors claiming to be miracle doctors waiting to enter the palace.
It was a coincidence for Xia Yuanqiu that as soon as she arrived, her father-in-law came out to announce their entry.
The three of them followed the father-in-law into the palace.
Walking at the front was an old man with gray hair, his back slightly hunched, and a pair of triangular eyes looking around. Until the eunuch who led the way turned back and scolded him: "You must keep your head down when walking. There are masters everywhere in the palace. If you can Do you want to wait and watch casually?"
The old man quickly lowered his head, but his eyes were still wandering around, obviously not a light-saving lamp.
Walking in front of Xia Yuanqiu was a middle-aged man. He was very tall, just like Xia Yuanqiu. He was carrying a medicine box and walked step by step with his eyes lowered.
The three of them were taken to wait outside the princess palace. After a while, King Mo Yuan rushed over, looked at the three of them, and then asked: "Tell me, what disease are you best at treating?"
The old man rushed to answer, half-squinting his triangular eyes, his eyes full of pride and arrogance: "Your Majesty, I am not bragging. In this city of Kyoto, when it comes to North Alley Divine Doctor Zhao, who doesn't know? Who doesn't know? There is no disease in this world that I am not good at. No matter what the disease is, I can cure it!"
King Mo Yuan raised his brows with a look of disbelief, but he didn't say much. He just nodded and said to the middle-aged man: "What about you?"
The middle-aged man said respectfully: "The younger one is good at trauma and bone setting, and he also knows a little bit about the others."
The middle-aged man's modesty and caution seemed to be more appreciated by King Mo Yuan, who nodded towards him.
