Drunk Bamboo

"You can't just enter the pharmacy casually. Whose master's house are you from?"

A young medical officer stopped in front of Hua Qinfeng with a questioning look on his face.

Looking at his delicate and childish face, you can tell that he has just entered the palace and doesn’t even recognize the famous King Feng.

Although Hua Qinfeng was not in Zhongdu before, his stubble was very eye-catching and he could be recognized at a glance.

Now his appearance has changed, but what is valuable is that he has become famous.

From breaking into the palace to save the Grand Tutor to solving a case in Loushan, from being cold in words and deeds to doting on his wife and being afraid of her, from being reported by everyone to being praised by His Majesty...

Everyone in the palace knew it.

With this handsome demeanor and piercing eyes, who else could it be but the Wind King? !

But the young medical officer in front of him didn't realize that it was his duty not to let strangers into the pharmacy.

"How dare you! Open your dog eyes and look. This is His Majesty's third prince, King Feng!" Gao Yin, the head of the Shang Pharmacy, happened to come out and scolded loudly.

He turned and smiled respectfully at Hua Qinfeng: "Lord Feng, why did you come to the pharmacy in person?"

“Lord Feng?!” The young medical officer was so frightened that his legs went weak. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed desperately. “I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong! I just entered the palace and didn’t recognize Lord Feng. Lord Feng, please spare me! Lord Feng, please spare me!”

He devoted himself to studying medicine at home, and had only heard of the God of War Feng Wang, who killed people without blinking an eye.

I finally got into the Shang Pharmacy, but I lost my life before I even became an imperial physician!

"You have offended the Wind King, so you will be punished later." Gao Yin had a cold face and a sinister voice.

"There's no need to accept the punishment. Call Qi Zhen out." Hua Qinfeng didn't even look at Gao Yin, but glanced at the frightened little medical officer and gave him an order.

The young medical officer was stunned for a moment, but his life was saved!

Without thinking too much, I immediately kowtowed to express my gratitude:

"Thank you, King Feng. Thank you, King Feng! I will..."

Before he even got up, Gao Yin spoke up, "Does the Fengwang Mansion have any questions for you? I may be able to answer your questions."

The young medical officer didn't know who to listen to and knelt there, not daring to move.

Hua Qinfeng glanced at him calmly and said, "Taifu caught a cold last night, and I need him to take his pulse."

Changfeng Tower investigated Gao Yin and found out that his birth background was auspicious. Ten years ago, Concubine Gao brought him back to the palace from Daci Temple. He then became a miracle doctor who saved people from the plague and rose to prominence ever since.

Anyone who is related to the Imperial Concubine will not be a simple person.

Judging from her appearance, she is cold and cunning, and Hua Qinfeng doesn't think highly of her.

"Teacher Zhang is such a person, how can we let a medical officer take his pulse? Imperial Doctor Liu and Imperial Doctor Zhao are on duty today. Both of them are the best doctors in the Shang Pharmacy. It would be safer if Your Majesty chooses one of them to go with you."

Gao Yin obviously didn't want Qi Zhen to go

"Is Gao Fengyu arranging things for me?" Hua Qinfeng said coldly.

"I dare not. But everyone has his own strengths, and I am slightly better than others in medical skills." Gao Yin looked respectful but spoke arrogantly.

No one in the palace dared to show him any anger except the emperor.

What can be done about this unpopular and stupid King of Wind?

"I only want Qi Zhen." Hua Qinfeng glanced at him coldly.

Chaoyang said sternly, "Gao Yin, you are so presumptuous! His Majesty has personally issued an order. If you delay and delay the treatment of the Grand Tutor, are you going to disobey the order?"

The awe-inspiring righteousness emanating from the two men made people shudder.

"I dare not." After all, he was a prince, so Gao Yin did not dare to confront him head-on. He gritted his teeth and said, "Go and ask Doctor Qi."

"Yes, yes!" The young medical officer hurriedly got up and ran back.

In the backyard, Qi Zhen was drying herbs.

The young medical officer saw Qi Zhen from a distance and shouted as he ran:

"Doctor Qi, Doctor Qi! Get ready to go out of the palace to check pulses. You don't need to do the job of drying the medicine today. Leave it to me!"

"Go out of the palace to take the pulse? But I still have to go and see the eunuchs and maids in each palace later." Qi Zhen's face was full of confusion.

When going out of the palace to take pulses, one would usually go to the residences of distinguished royal nobles, or the houses of powerful officials. Without the emperor's approval, the people from the pharmacy were absolutely not allowed to leave the palace while on duty.

Such an opportunity to show off one's face, medical skills, and get to know high-ranking officials and nobles is usually given to the imperial doctors who follow Gao Fengyu's lead. It would never be the turn of a small medical officer like him.

"You don't even need to go. I'll go for you!" The young doctor looked excited, as if he was the one who went out of the palace to diagnose pulses. "What are you standing there for? The King of Feng has asked you to go and diagnose the pulse of the Grand Tutor. He has even come to ask you personally. What an honor!"

The young medical officer saw Qi Zhen standing there motionless and hurried to help clean up.

"Wind King?!" Qi Zhen's face turned pale immediately.

Are you here to ask for a prescription?

But he hasn't made a move yet.

"There are so many imperial doctors in the Shang Pharmacy, but they chose to send you, a medical officer. Even His Majesty has to give Gao Fengyu some face, but Prince Feng doesn't give him any. Doctor Qi, you are really outrageous!"

The young doctor was young but very clever. After entering the palace for more than a month, he had already learned the details of all the big shots in the Shang Pharmacy so that he could get along with them more easily in the future.

But Qi Zhen was unknown and not liked by Gao Fengyu. After more than ten years, he was still a medical officer.

Thinking that the man had neither medical skills nor connections, the young medical officer didn't take it seriously.

I didn't expect it to be so hidden.

Qi Zhen: “…”

"Quick, get the medicine box!" the young medical officer urged, "Why are you still standing there like an idiot? Come with me, I'll take you there!"

"Okay... okay, thank you very much, thank you very much." Qi Zhen followed slowly.

"Do you know King Feng? Or is this relationship established through someone your family asked?" the young medical officer asked flatteringly.

"We met by chance... not very familiar."

"How come you have known Prince Feng for more than ten years and are still a medical officer in the pharmacy? His Majesty loves Prince Feng the most now, even more than Prince Wen. Doctor Qi, you are really lucky!" said the young medical officer.

"..."

Qi Zhen didn't know how to respond.

"I've only heard that King Feng came back from the battlefield with a murderous look on his face, and children were afraid of him. But I see that King Feng is not only handsome, but also kindhearted. I just offended him, and he not only refuted Gao Fengyu's punishment, but also asked me to come and call you. Do you think King Feng is approachable and amiable?"

"..."

Qi Zhen was speechless.

Soon we arrived at the main hall.

"Your Majesty." Qi Zhen saluted, "Gao Fengyu."

"Let Chaoyang help you if you need anything." Compared to Gao Yin, Hua Qinfeng's attitude towards Qi Zhen was extremely friendly.

The young medical officer suddenly had an idea. Isn’t this familiar?

Even the Wind King’s personal guards have to help carry things!

Qi Zhen bowed his head and replied, "A medicine box is enough. Let me explain a few words."

Hua Qinfeng nodded.

Qi Zhen walked up to the young doctor and said, "Doctor Jin, the herbs drying in the yard..."

Jin Jishi nodded repeatedly, his face full of gratitude, as this was a special opportunity for him to show up in front of King Feng.

Holding his hand, he said solemnly: "Doctor Qi, don't worry, I remember everything."

Qi Zhen pulled her hand back with some effort, looking a little embarrassed, but she still politely said, "Thank you."

"Let's go."

Hua Qinfeng and his men left the pharmacy without even looking at Gao Yin.

"Farewell, Your Highness." Gao Yin bent over with a cold look in his eyes.

When he stood up, he took out his anger on the young medical officer.

"What are you looking at? Go get busy!"

Jin Jishi closed his mouth, lowered his head, turned around and left.

Outside the palace, Hua Qinfeng got on the carriage first, followed by Qi Zhen, and Chaoyang drove the car.

Hua Qinfeng usually went to court on horseback, but today he took a carriage because of the fruit basket prepared by Xie Yuzhu, and he was afraid that the fruit would be damaged if he rode a horse.

"Your Highness, I just got the key yesterday, and I haven't found the chance. Gao Fengyu is on duty today, and many imperial doctors are here, but I haven't gotten the prescription yet. I may have to wait for a few more days."

After getting on the carriage, Qi Zhen hesitated for a while before he dared to speak in a low voice.

"I am not responsible for the prescription. Just tell Yuzhu what she wants you to do."

Hua Qinfeng caught a glimpse of Qi Zhen out of the corner of his eye.

Qi Zhen lowered his head and dared not look at him.

Are you really that afraid of him?

"Is the Master really sick?" Qi Zhen suddenly raised his eyes.

"You caught a cold last night. I'm worried, so I took you to see a doctor." Hua Qinfeng slowed down his tone.

"Yes, yes. I am narrow-minded. I am not worthy of being a doctor..." Qi Zhen looked ashamed and self-blaming.

"Okay, your medical skills are okay. If you are not qualified to be a doctor, who else can be a doctor? Yuzhu also studied medicine with you. Don't say this again in the future."

Hua Qinfeng couldn't bear to listen any longer and interrupted him.

Qi Zhen was stunned.

Coming back to his senses, he replied, “…Yes.”

The carriage was quiet again.

"Did Gao Yin give you any trouble at the Shang Pharmacy?"

As soon as I saw Gao Yin's attitude at the Shang Pharmacy and what Qi Zhen told me, I knew his situation at the Shang Pharmacy.

Qi Zhen was originally an imperial physician, but was demoted to a medical officer because he left the palace without permission. Although he was saving lives, he also suffered.

He has his reasons, so if Qi Zhen is bullied in the Shang Pharmacy, he has the responsibility to protect her.

Qi Zhen looked at Hua Qinfeng in astonishment.

I didn't expect him to care about me.

Suddenly I felt that he was not that scary.

"Gao Fengyu didn't embarrass me."

"Is it a waste of your talent to dry and boil herbs in the pharmacy?"

Hua Qinfeng turned his gaze to Qi Zhen to see if he was hiding anything.

"Sunning and decocting medicine, treating the palace maids and eunuchs in each palace are all the duties of a medical officer. Now I have to do more than before, and I meet more patients. I studied medicine to cure diseases and save lives."

He smiled and said, "Compared to being an imperial physician, I prefer being a medical officer now."
