Chapter 1546
His stepmother Yuan sneered, "You really think you are so great just because you are a second-class military doctor! You are just a bastard!"
What made Yuan most angry was not that her distant niece was rejected, but that her own son's rank was now lower than that of a concubine's son.
She has been having trouble eating and sleeping these past few days, all because of this irritating bastard.
Upon hearing that the illegitimate son was rejected for marriage, Yuan immediately ate several bowls of rice to make up for the debt she had owed in the past few days.
Who knew that I was happy too early...
Just when Bei Hui and the others secretly felt sorry for Xiyue, Shi Anxia summoned the garrison commander Lei Wanjun, "This princess wants to ask you for someone."
Lei Wanjun knew very well: the chief military doctor whom I had trained with great difficulty was about to be gone.
As expected, Shi Anxia got straight to the point. "I heard that Doctor Kang will be taking a leave in two months. Can it be taken earlier? I'll make up for the two months next time."
Lei Wanjun bowed and said, "Princess, Doctor Kang has been in the military for twelve years since he was thirteen years old. In the past twelve years, he has been transferred to many military camps without a break. According to military law, he can rest for five years before rejoining the military. Of course, if a war breaks out, he will be recalled immediately, which is another matter."
Shi Anxia smiled and said, "Thank you, General Lei, for releasing the people. With a general like General Lei stationed in Youzhou, it will surely be stable for several years."
Lei Wanjun was flattered and felt very relieved. "It is my duty to guard the border."
He has been a frequent visitor to the princess's mansion recently, exchanging tactics and martial arts with the princess' husband, and has also been summoned by Emperor Mingde himself, which has made him a very glorious person.
As a result, Yuan had only had two or three meals to be happy, while Kang Chenyan was about to follow the princess to the capital to enter the Imperial Hospital for promotion and gilding his reputation.
In the North Wing, those below the rank of Chief Surgeon could only work in local positions during their two-year rotation. Only those above the rank of Chief Surgeon could go to the Imperial Hospital in the capital.
There are seven people in the Kang family who are above the rank of third-class military doctor. Five of them are currently in the army, one is a medical assistant in the Imperial Hospital, and the other is the second-class military doctor Kang Chenyan.
Yuan's biological son is far inferior to him, there is no comparison at all.
Moreover, with Kang Chenyan's achievements, he would not start as a medical assistant when he entered the capital. The lowest rank would be a seventh-rank imperial physician.
When Yuan heard the news, she was so angry that she smashed several cups and said to the nanny, "Go, call that bastard back to take care of the patient."
Kang Chenyan is a doctor and a concubine's son. If he dares not to come to attend to his father's illness, the word "filial piety" will be enough to end his official career.
Yuan felt that he dared not not come.
At dusk, Kang Chenyan returned to the Kang family.
Bastards cannot go in and out through the main gate, this is the rule. The carriage entered through the corner gate, and the nanny hiding there saw this and ran all the way to report the news, "Madam, Master Yan has returned home."
Yuan sneered, "You still can't control him? He's just a bastard."
Who knew that Kang Chenyan was in a hurry...he went into his yard and never came out again.
Yuan was still waiting for the patient to attend to her, but after waiting for a long time and seeing no one coming, she asked the nanny to call someone.
The nanny went and soon came back to report, "Master Yan is sorting out the classics and is going to take all the books to the capital."
Yuan, who was pretending to be sick, threw the wet handkerchief on her forehead in anger, threw off the quilt and got out of bed, "He is a traitor! Those books are the treasures of my Kang family, why did he take them away?"
When Yuan led his men into the yard in a mighty force, Kang Chenyan was still carefully sorting out the books.
Seeing his stepmother coming in anger, he already knew what was going on. He greeted her according to etiquette before saying calmly, "My son sees that mother looks normal and doesn't seem to be ill. I feel relieved."
Just as she finished speaking, before Yuan could get angry, the doorman came hurriedly to report, singing all the way: "The princess has arrived! The princess has arrived! The princess has arrived!"
