The prince's personal bodyguard

Chapter 19: Time is money, and money can make me happy.

The government had already reported the news to the palace. It was already evening when they arrived at the palace gate. After meeting up with Qingdai, guards led Wei Dong and Bai Xinyin into the palace.

It is a huge complex of buildings. The golden roof and red door of the palace give people a sense of solemnity. The golden glazed tiles shine brightly under the setting sun.

The waiter led them into a side hall. Inside the hall, on a golden lacquered dragon-carved throne sat a king who looked down upon the world. Dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, the man sat upright on the dragon throne, with a natural domineering aura that made people feel awe from the bottom of their hearts.

There were many officials and imperial doctors standing on both sides of the hall. When they saw the two young men coming in, they pointed and whispered for a while.

Bai Xinyin and Qingdai didn't even look up. They bowed as soon as they entered the hall. They didn't know how to do formalities, but they only knew that kneeling down and kowtowing was the right thing to do.

"What a damn evil kneeling ritual." Bai Xinyin complained in her heart.

Wei Dong kowtowed, introduced the person to the front of the hall, and after a brief explanation, he stepped aside.

"Raise your head!" a majestic voice came from above.

Bai Xinyin looked up at the dragon throne: he was over 40 years old, with sword-like eyebrows, phoenix eyes, and a handsome appearance. He was intimidating without even getting angry. It was obvious that the emperor was a handsome man who had taken good care of himself.

The moment Bai Xinyin raised his head, a trace of surprise seemed to flash across the emperor's eyes, and his face was startled, but he quickly regained his composure.

The chief eunuch beside the emperor seemed to be secretly surprised when he saw Bai Xinyin's face, but he disappeared in an instant.

Bai Xinyin has always been sensitive and a little confused. She thought: Maybe I am too handsome... This idea was a bit naive, so she quickly lowered her head again.

"What is the name of the person kneeling? How old are you? Where do you live? Where do you practice medicine?" The voice was intimidating without being angry.

"I am Bai Ah Si, I am almost 15 years old, I live in Taoyuan County, I am a wandering doctor, I know some minor medical skills."

"Oh? Do traveling doctors dare to reveal the imperial edict? You should know that reckless treatment is a capital crime!"

"I know. Based on the Empress Dowager's condition, I guess that the disease she suffers from is very similar to that of my father. That year, a sorcerer cured my father of the disease. He also said that if relatives have the disease, the younger generation may also be prone to it, so he taught this method to me." Bai Xinyin was neither humble nor arrogant, and his story was well-reasoned.

You can't say that Zixuan was just reading the words on the imperial edict for fun and pointed me in!

When your strength cannot compete with that of your opponent, retreating is a wise choice.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is a noble woman, how can you allow these two kids to talk nonsense...to make trouble? I suggest that they be kicked...kicked out." The Empress Dowager's younger brother, Cao Guojiu, dragged his chubby body and said angrily. He had a problem that when he was angry or nervous, he would stutter a little.

"That's right, that's right, he has no hair on his face and he can't do things reliably." A voice came from below.

"They must be two little swindlers. They rely on their good looks to cheat here. In my opinion, they should be beaten with dozens of sticks and thrown into the street as a warning to the public!"

Bai Xinyin did not argue. She thought, if you want to attack, then attack. I have to go back to Yaowang Valley tomorrow, so I have to hurry up.

But the person sitting in the upper seat did not say anything.

"I think these two young men behave well and don't seem like liars. Why don't we let them try?" A voice as gentle as jade came from above.

The voice sounds so familiar? Bai Xinyin stole a glance from the corner of her eye: Prince Rong Mu Yunxiao, a small social death scene.

Some things are about to be exposed, but it doesn't matter. I wanted to confess it anyway, it's a matter of sooner or later. Besides, he's not my father, why should I be afraid of him? Just pretend I don't know him!

"I'm not embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed." Thinking of this, Bai Xinyin cleared his throat and stood up straighter.

"Yes, there is no cure for the Queen Mother's illness at the moment, and what this little itinerant doctor said doesn't seem to be a lie." An old voice spoke. General Feng stepped forward.

"Excuse me, young man, how do you plan to treat it?" asked a man who looked like an imperial physician?

"I'm sorry I can't tell you this!" Bai Xinyin thought to herself, if I tell you that I need surgery and cut open the Empress Dowager's stomach, you will burn me to death immediately.

It is normal for doctors to keep their exclusive secret recipes secret.

"Excuse me, young man, how confident are you?" Zhang Beishan, the head of the Imperial Hospital, continued to ask?

"Fifty percent!" Before he finished speaking, there was an uproar below. These people needed stimulation.

"I suggest that we should not let anyone treat him casually. The current condition can still hold out for some time. We will not be able to bear the consequences if something goes wrong..." The head of the imperial hospital kowtowed.

Other imperial doctors also echoed this.

"If you can cure it, then do it! Let's go!" Qingdai had grown up in the mountains and was tired of listening to these people's pedantic words. How could she allow these people to question her master's medical skills?

"How dare you, a common countryman, behave like this in front of His Majesty?" Gao Yanfu, the chief eunuch beside the emperor, rebuked him. If he hadn't been able to treat the empress dowager, he would have been dragged out and beaten with a stick.

"If you delay any longer, 40% will be gone!" Bai Xinyin was a little unhappy. The aunt came here to treat the disease, not to be tried.

This little traveling doctor has a bit of a temper.

"Your Majesty, since these adults don't trust me, I will take my leave." Bai Xinyin's implication is that it's not that I don't want to treat you, it's that your people don't let me treat you, so you can't blame me, right? You can't punish me.

After saying this, she bowed and waited for the emperor to drive them away.

"Father, the Empress Dowager has fainted again and has a high fever." At this moment, a clear female voice came from the door of the palace.

Then the sound of rings and bracelets on the woman's waist came closer and closer, and a pair of exquisite green embroidered shoes appeared in Bai Xinyin's sight, and then seemed to circle around her again.

"Father, please forgive me for being frank, but the Empress Dowager's illness is of critical importance. Since these imperial doctors cannot cure her, why not let this little traveling doctor give it a try?" Princess Shouyang strongly recommended.

The emperor pondered for a moment and said, "I allow Bai Ah Si to treat the empress dowager. If he is cured, he will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver and be made a marquis. If he fails, he will serve the empress dowager for life!"

No, what does the emperor mean? If the queen mother has any problem, she will be dead, right? If she is dead, why should I serve her? ...Buried with her? Bai Xinyin shuddered. Although she was sure about the queen mother's illness, nothing is absolute, right? No, I have to put forward a condition first.

"Your Majesty," Bai Xinyin thought: Everyone knows that the harem is dangerous, what if someone wants to frame the Queen Mother? It can't be left alone. "I request a quiet environment. No one can disturb me or obstruct me for any reason before my condition stabilizes within three days."

"That is to say... can I borrow your imperial sword for the next two days?" After saying this, she looked at the emperor with a pair of seemingly innocent eyes. It was a bit absurd to make this request, but Bai Xinyin was young and handsome, and the emperor suddenly felt a pain in his heart, as if he was stunned.

"How dare you, a...bold commoner, to dare to...dare to ask the emperor for something." The fat uncle Cao scolded again. He was everywhere, in the sewers and at the temple gates. What kind of god was he?

Bai Xinyin ignored him. She bet the emperor would agree.

Time is money, and money can make me happy. This has risen to a thousand gold coins, so I can take this job. Since the salary has increased, I will give the Queen Mother the full VIP treatment and serve her for two days until the dangerous period is over.

As expected, the emperor agreed. Bai Xinyin was in front, and Qingdai was behind with the imperial sword. The master and servant were so proud along the way that not a single objection was raised.

Before entering the room, Cao Guojiu wanted to say something, but before he could open his mouth, "Shut up! Your tongue is stiff, you keep yawning, your left hand is numb, and you often see black in front of your eyes. In less than two months, you will be bedridden. Come to me when the time comes. The medical fee must be no less than 200,000!" Bai Xinyin deliberately angered him.

"You, you, you actually cursed me? I will..." Qingdai stretched out the imperial sword, and Cao Guojiu was so angry that he trembled, but he did not dare to act rashly. Bai Xinyin thought that if he got angry, he would probably be paralyzed early.

Although Cao Guojiu was angry, he thought about it carefully and realized that what the little itinerant doctor said about his physical condition seemed to be true. How did he know? Let him treat the eldest sister first. No one can cure the eldest sister's disease now, so let the dead sister treat the living one!
