The Ordinary Man's Guide to Fast Travel

Liu Fufeng brought Chao Yao to unveil the imperial edict.

Anyone who reveals the imperial edict will not necessarily meet the emperor.

It needs to go through several investigations and assessments first.

For example, let’s say a critically ill patient comes first and you see if you can save him.

Let’s find another person with a similar condition to the prince and see if he can be saved effectively.

As the crown prince of a country, it is impossible for him to let just anyone come and try out medicine.

Although the emperor was old and unable to do the job, he was still extremely strict in the management of this aspect. At least, all the people who were screened at each level were people he could trust.

After going through numerous rounds of screening, Liu Fufeng and Chao Yao finally walked into the hall and met the emperor.

"See Your Majesty."

They both knelt down, and the emperor looked up.

"I heard that you have no medical experience, but you have a precious treasure passed down from your ancestors that you can try."

From the moment Chao Yao entered the door until now, she couldn't even raise her head. She just felt that the voice of the person who said this was extremely majestic, which made her feel particularly oppressed.

Liu Fufeng was much calmer, worthy of being someone who had once met the emperor.

"Your Majesty, this is something that belongs to my wife's family. We accidentally found it many years ago. It was not until recently that His Royal Highness the Second Prince searched for it many times that my wife and I knew its purpose."

"Oh? Second Prince? What's going on?"

Liu Fufeng and Chao Yao still didn't look up, but Chao Yao clearly felt that the emperor was interested at this moment.

At this moment, Liu Fufeng tore off the mask on his face, revealing another mask he often used.

When Chao Yao saw that he had torn it open, he tore it down too.

"Your Majesty, I am Liu Fufeng, a doctor in the Ministry of Revenue. I have been hunted by the Second Prince for the past few days, so I have not been at work. My wife and I hid in the cellar of our home, so we were not found. In the cellar, I accidentally heard the searching soldiers reveal that they wanted to kill my wife because she was holding a valuable treasure. My wife didn't know that such a valuable treasure could bring the dead back to life. After we found it and tried it, we found that it really existed."

After saying that, Liu Fufeng presented a box. In the box were three detoxification pills that Chao Yao had prepared in advance, and a thousand-year-old ginseng.

The emperor's attendant brought up the box, and the imperial physician was already waiting there.

After inspection, it was found that ginseng is indeed not an ordinary product, and the efficacy of the detoxification pills is currently unknown.

The emperor looked at Liu Fufeng's mask, his lips curled up, but he didn't say anything.

"My dear, you have special abilities, and you are indeed a talent. It would be a pity for you to be a doctor in the Ministry of Revenue, as the position of assistant minister is vacant. If the prince wakes up, you will take the position."

Liu Fufeng bowed deeply, and Chao Yao imitated him.

Fortunately, I had been taught the etiquette rules by the palace maid before meeting the emperor, otherwise I would have been really flustered at this time.

In fact, the prince had always been arranged to stay in the emperor's palace. Later, Liu Fufeng saw the prince lying on the bed again. At this time, he was 100% sure that the detoxification pill he had fed before was given to the fake prince.

I was too anxious at the time and didn't observe carefully.

But now that I think about it, the prince is already terminally ill and must be in a lifeless state.

The fake prince before just looked like he was asleep.

He had no intention of telling the emperor about this for the time being. The ruler of a country must know his son better than he, an outsider.

The less you speak, the fewer mistakes you make.

If he asks, I will definitely tell him.

Since the emperor didn't ask, I pretended not to know.

It's not the face he has now that was used to arrest him and put him in the dark cell.

After the prince took the detoxification pill, his face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After about a quarter of an hour, he opened his eyes.

When the emperor saw this, his eyes instantly turned red.

"It's good that you woke up, it's good that you woke up! Doctor, come and take a look!"

Liu Fufeng and Chao Yao were still kneeling on the ground. The imperial doctors came forward and walked around them.

The attendant glanced at them and said:

"Your Majesty, this treasure presented by Minister Liu and Madam Liu is indeed useful. The Liu and Chao families are talented people, and the masks are made so finely."

The emperor was reminded and then looked at Liu Fufeng and Chao Yao.

"Be flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Liu Fufeng helped Chao Yao to stand up slowly. His knees were numb from kneeling for so long.

When the emperor saw this, his eyes were filled with memories.

"The Liu family is a good man. I heard that you and your elder brother have never had a concubine. Everyone praises your love for your wife. Seeing you today, the rumors are true. It's just that Dalang is a little unlucky. I heard that the concubine of the Wu family died in front of the horse yesterday. I, as the emperor, have made up for the loss of my beloved wife. Minister Qiao of the Ministry of Works has a legitimate young daughter who is dignified and virtuous. She was famous when she was in the boudoir. I grant her to be your brother's wife. You can choose a date to get married without waiting for the concubine of the Wu family for three years."

Liu Fufeng and Chao Yao knelt down again and bowed deeply, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

The emperor raised his hand, and the attendant beside him helped them both up again.

"Since it has been said that you will be the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue as soon as the Crown Prince wakes up, you will take up the post tomorrow. Ask the embroidery room to make the official uniform as soon as possible, and Minister Liu will have to attend court from now on. As for your mask, I find it very interesting. Who taught you this skill?"

"Your Majesty, this skill was taught by a wandering martial arts master. I was young, so I learned it for fun, and I succeeded by accident. Now my master has passed away, and I can't find him anymore."

The emperor turned the ring on his finger and said casually, "Have you seen anyone else who can do this skill?"

Liu Fufeng raised his head slightly, looked at the imperial doctors beside him, and said nothing.

The emperor was not in a hurry. "I will stay here tonight to reply. I think I can't stay in your house anymore."

Before Liu Fufeng and Chao Yao could kneel down to express their gratitude again, the imperial physician came over to report.

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is no longer in danger. The medicine presented by Minister Liu is not an exaggeration to be called a miracle drug. Could you please give it to me so that I can study it carefully?"

"Oh, he only gave me three antidote pills. If you take one, can you get rid of the poison?"

The emperor responded directly and mercilessly, "You are all a bunch of mediocre people. After so long, it was the folk things that saved our lives. Get lost!"

The imperial doctors left one after another, and the emperor then walked towards the prince.

"My son, you have suffered."

The prince opened his mouth with great effort, "If God... doesn't take my life, I will... come back... to accompany my father."

The father and son had a deep affection for each other, and Liu Fufeng and Chao Yao didn't even dare to look at each other.

They lowered their heads. Liu Fufeng saw Chao Yao clenching her hands tightly, so he stretched out his hand and gently held hers.

Chao Yao turned her head and saw Liu Fufeng smiling faintly, with a reassuring look in his eyes.

The emperor and the prince had an agreement, and then he asked Liu Fufeng.

"You were inconvenienced just now. Now please tell me about the art of mask making."
