The Moon is Full in the Traveling House

Chapter 79 Seeking Medical Treatment

The next morning, just after the sun rose, Su Lun ordered the housekeeper Su to prepare several exquisite gifts. Together with his brother Su Zheng, Qingfeng and Su Zhe, they set out for the residence of Imperial Physician Yao to seek medical treatment.

When they arrived at Yao's house, as soon as they gave their names, the servant at the door immediately smiled and enthusiastically led them into the house. This sudden attentive attitude surprised Su Lun very much, and he couldn't help but wonder: Is it so easy to enter the door of the miracle doctor now? He looked at Qingfeng in confusion, hoping to get an answer from him, but Qingfeng just shook his head gently, indicating that he also didn't know the reason.

Not long after, the housekeeper of the Yao Mansion showed up. He walked up to Su Lun and said respectfully, "This must be the famous Captain Su, right? I am really sorry that I was not able to come out to greet you in time. Please forgive me. Master Chen Xuan has already made instructions. If Captain Su is here, let us take you directly to meet Mr. Yao. However, Mr. Su is concentrating on preparing medicine at the moment, and it may take about an incense stick of time for him to come out. Please take a rest for a while." After saying that, he made a gesture of invitation and led everyone to take a seat.

Su Lun hurriedly thanked him. When he heard that it was Master Chen Xuan who ordered him, he was a little surprised. But when he thought about the relationship between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Master Chen Xuan, and Imperial Doctor Yao, which Qingfeng had explained before, he understood. He did not expect that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would take such good care of him. Su Lun's gratitude to Xie Tianlin deepened.

At this moment, Su Lun was holding the teacup in his hand absentmindedly, feeling more nervous than when he took the college entrance examination in his previous life. He hoped that Dr. Yao would come out as soon as possible to tell them the good news; he was also a little worried that his elder brother's leg injury had been delayed for too long and might not be completely healed. Su Zheng seemed to have noticed Su Lun's worry. He patted his brother's shoulder calmly and comforted him softly: "Alan, why are you more nervous than me? Don't worry too much. Even if it can't be cured, it won't be worse than it is now, right?"

Upon hearing this, Su Lun quickly retorted: "Brother, what are you talking about! Doctor Yao is the best doctor in the Dashun Dynasty. He must have a way to cure your leg injury. You must not say such discouraging words. If others hear it, they will be unhappy..." At the end, his voice even trembled slightly, as if he was afraid that the treatment effect would be affected by saying something unlucky.

"Haha, my friend, I am not that petty. How can I be upset by a few words of truth? You can rest assured." With an old but vigorous voice, Su Lun looked carefully and saw an old man with a long beard walking towards them. This man was none other than Doctor Yao.

Although Doctor Yao is nearly sixty years old, he is good at taking care of himself and looks energetic and vibrant. Judging from his appearance, he looks no more than fifty years old.

"Greetings, Imperial Physician Yao!" Qingfeng was the first to bow and took the opportunity to secretly pull Su Lun's sleeve, signaling him to bow quickly.

Su Lun finally came back to his senses as if waking from a dream, with a trace of shyness and embarrassment on his face. He quickly said, "Doctor Yao, I have heard of your name as a miracle doctor for a long time. I am honored to meet you today. I was rude just now. I hope you can be magnanimous and not hold it against me."

Imperial Doctor Yao carefully looked Su Lun up and down, then nodded with satisfaction and said, "You should be the Captain Su that Chen Xuan mentioned. Well, it seems that you are indeed a man of excellent physique! I heard that you were injured some time ago, but now it seems that you have recovered. Hey, why are you all standing there? Sit down and talk."

After everyone sat down, Su Lun slowly stood up and bowed to Doctor Yao respectfully, saying, "Doctor Yao, I came here today to seek medical advice for my brother. My brother broke his leg three months ago, but the doctor in town said that it was incurable. I dare to ask you to diagnose him again in order to give him a chance of survival."

Doctor Yao nodded slightly, stroked his beard, turned his gaze to Su Zheng and said, "Come over here, let me take a look."

Su Zheng did not dare to neglect him and quickly bowed respectfully: "Thank you for your trouble, doctor!" After that, he quickly walked to the side of Doctor Yao and sat down at his signal. Doctor Yao stretched out his finger and gently placed it on Su Zheng's pulse, concentrating on feeling his pulse carefully. In a moment, Doctor Yao said: "Where is the injury? Show it to me."

When Su Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but glance at the maids standing beside him, and a little embarrassed appeared on his face. Doctor Yao saw this and understood what he meant. He turned to the maids and said, "You all should leave first."

Hearing this, Su Zheng heaved a sigh of relief. After the maids left as instructed, he carefully rolled up his trouser legs to expose his injured leg. At this time, the originally hideous wound had already scabbed into a scar, like an ugly mark, across his knees and calves.

"How do you feel on a daily basis? Are you still in pain?" Doctor Yao asked with concern.

Su Zheng smiled and said firmly, "It doesn't hurt much anymore, but it's a little inconvenient to walk. Especially on rainy days, the pain will be a little worse. However, since I used the medicine prepared by Doctor Lin, the symptoms have indeed been greatly relieved."

Doctor Yao nodded slightly, then carefully pressed on Su Zheng's wound and the surrounding area, and asked Su Zheng about his reaction one by one. Su Zheng did not dare to hide anything and answered truthfully.

Doctor Yao pondered for a moment, then took out a set of gleaming silver needles from his medical box. He said to Su Zheng with a serious look, "Mr. Su, I will try acupuncture next. During this process, no matter what you feel, you must be honest with me."

Su Zheng nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes, Doctor, please feel free to give me the acupuncture." However, when Doctor Yao inserted the silver needle into a certain acupuncture point below the knee, Su Zheng suddenly turned pale, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he couldn't help but groan in pain. Seeing this, Su Lun, who was standing by, was very anxious. He couldn't help but stand up and stared at Su Zheng with a worried face. "Doctor Yao, this..." His voice was obviously nervous and uneasy.

However, at this moment, Doctor Yao reached out his hand and stopped him from continuing. His expression became extremely serious, and then he solemnly said to the two people: "The reason why Master Su has difficulty walking is most likely because there are some broken bones in his body that have not been properly treated. If you want to completely cure it, you must clean up all the broken bones and then reconnect them. Just now, I have preliminarily determined the location of the broken bones, but the problem is that if you really want to do this, there are indeed certain risks, and I cannot guarantee 100% success."

Hearing this, Su Zheng couldn't help but ask, "Doctor Yao, how confident do you think you are?" Doctor Yao took a deep breath, calmed down, and replied, "About 50%! In fact, my daughter should be the best at treating trauma. Unfortunately, she is no longer alive. If Xinyi were still alive, she might be about 70% confident." It turned out that Yao Xinyi was the mother of Master Chenxuan. Her skills in treating trauma were better than hers, so she was able to follow the army to war as a woman. Unfortunately, beauty is envied by heaven, and fate is unfortunate!
