I am a miracle doctor in Dream of the Red Chamber

Chapter 115: Working Together to Study Medical Skills

On April 20th, in Jingning City, the capital of the Great Yao Dynasty, the incident took place in the Great Yao Palace, the original bedroom of An Wuxia and Lin Daiyu, Jingruzhai, and the headquarters of the Nether City, Mount Emei in Sichuan. In the Rongguo Mansion built by imperial decree in the capital, Lin Daiyu's residence, Hele Pavilion.

An Wuxia rolled down the steep stone stairs, and his whole body suddenly felt like it was falling apart. At this moment, he held on to the stone stairs with difficulty, slowly stood up, and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve.

At this time, the old father still staggered down the steps and walked anxiously to his child. The two looked at each other secretly, knowing that this Queen Mother Ming was really vicious.

The old father looked at his son and said, "How are you, son? You fell from such a high step!"

The son shook his head and said nothing else. He turned around and continued to support his father, kneeling down and saying to Queen Mother Ming on the steps: "Queen Mother, we only came here to risk selling charcoal because our mother is seriously ill. If you think you don't need this new type of charcoal, we will leave. I just dare to ask, why did you throw me out of the palace?!"

Queen Mother Ming smiled cunningly and said, "The charcoal is good charcoal, for sure! But I have to make sure who you are! Are you a spy sent by the old fox, the emperor?!"

The old father knelt down hurriedly and said, "Empress Dowager! The patient in our family is really terminally ill, so we are risking our lives here to ask for some money to save his life."

Queen Mother Ming said angrily: "Where are you from? How could such precious charcoal come from a poor family like yours?!"

At this time, the son looked up and said, "Our family has lived in Meishan County for generations. Due to the sudden increase in thieves recently, most people in the village have moved away. But our mother is seriously ill at home, and we are afraid that her life will be in danger if we travel a long distance, so we came here to try our luck. Queen Mother, please reward us with some silver so that my mother will not die of illness." After saying this, two lines of tears flowed down his cheeks. He kept bowing his head, and he was really eager to save people.

When Queen Mother Ming saw this, she recalled her childhood. A battle was fought on the ocean for a long time with the cannon fire of distant enemy warships. Since then, she lost her loved ones and became an orphan wandering in the capital from a princess of the tribe. The feeling of life and death was unforgettable for her.

However, she put away her sympathy and tenderness, pointed to her young son and said, "If you want me to use this charcoal, then keep this young man. As for you, old bald donkey, go back and make charcoal for me. Just keep supplying it."

After these words came out, the father and son looked at each other. The son pleaded, "My Queen Mother, my father is old and weak, and I am the one who mainly does the charcoal burning. I will go back to find a doctor to treat my mother. Once my mother's condition is cured, we will send you the charcoal on time. I wonder if you will be relieved by this?!"

Queen Mother Ming turned around and snorted coldly, "Why should I trust you and your son?!"

At this time, the old father immediately said: "I will stay and serve and change the charcoal fire. Please ask the Queen Mother to let my son go back and find a doctor to treat his mother first."

Queen Mother Ming rolled her eyes, and then said to the two of them: "If you want me to believe you, just follow me!"

When they arrived at the prison, Queen Mother Ming held a red-hot iron in her hand and said, "I will completely burn your son's face and turn him into an ugly person. Only in this way can I use him without any worries and he will always be my charcoal boy!"

After hearing this, the son's heart suddenly twitched, and it was as if a sharp sword was hanging over his head. Only then did he truly understand the insidiousness of Queen Mother Ming. However, in this way, although he gained the trust of Queen Mother Ming, he became a plaything and prey.

As the father and son were shaking in fear, Queen Mother Ming slowly approached her young son and said, "What do you think? How can you make me believe you? Do you want me to destroy your face and stay by my side from now on, or do you want to go back?"

The old father pleaded, "Empress Dowager! We just want to sell some charcoal to get some money to treat our family members. Please be kind and let us go!"

The son said calmly: "Empress Dowager, if you destroy my face, how can I live in this world? It's no different from killing me! Besides, you must feel uncomfortable watching an ugly guy adding charcoal for you all day long!"

Queen Mother Ming laughed and said, "Then use your father's life in exchange for my trust in you!"

The son hurriedly said, "Queen Mother! If you are not sincere in buying our charcoal, we can just leave Nether City. Please don't go too far and kill us all!"

Queen Mother Ming turned around, put down the branding iron and said, "How dare you! How dare you talk to me like that! Come on! Throw this father and son into the alchemy furnace!" The black-clad shadowless soldiers rushed in, tied up the two men, and prepared to throw them into the furnace.

At this time, the Prince of Moxue came in and said, "Mother, calm down! I heard that you want to punish a father and son who sell charcoal. Is this true?!"

As he spoke, he looked around and met the young son's eyes. Qi Zhu thought secretly: "This pair of clear, pure and kind eyes feels just like the magic hands of a fairy!"

Subconsciously, Qi Zhu said casually, "Wait! Don't hurt them!" Then he said to Queen Mother Ming, "They are just an ordinary poor father and son. Mother, can you let me handle it? I will definitely give you a satisfactory result."

Prince Ming glanced at the father and son again and said arrogantly, "Forget it! I'm tired after all this trouble, so I'll leave it to you! Don't be careless, be careful of spies sneaking in!"

Qi Zhu bowed and said, "Don't worry, mother! I will handle the matter carefully!" After that, with a gesture, the father and son were sent to Prince Moxue.
