Dingbei Hou's doctor brother

"I wonder what instructions the Queen has for me?" Lin Yi said with a bow.

The Concubine Chen sat on a chair and drank tea. She said, "Doctor Lin has been working at the Imperial Hospital for ten years, right?"

Lin Yi lowered his eyes and paused, "To answer your Majesty, it has been fourteen years."

The Concubine Chen put down the teacup.

"I've long heard that Imperial Physician Lin is a genius within the Imperial Hospital, and he's also quite handsome. It's a real waste of talent that he only reached the eighth rank after fourteen years. In my opinion, Imperial Physician Lin is fully qualified to be the judge of the hospital."

Lin Yi suddenly raised his eyelids and was stunned for a moment, then stepped back and knelt, saying excitedly.

"Your Majesty, I am extremely grateful for your praise and would like to serve you at your service."

The Concubine Chen said, "I am grateful for your dedicated service and would like to promote you. As for whether you can handle this wealth and honor, that will depend on the ability of Imperial Physician Lin."

Lin Yi suppressed his joy and said, "Thank you for your cultivation, Your Majesty. I will definitely not let you down."

The Concubine Chen stood up and said, "The Emperor has suffered from dizziness and fatigue for many years, and often suffers from nausea. His body is weak and his illness is not going away. If Imperial Physician Lin can develop a new prescription and cure the Emperor, it will be a great achievement. Then, I will recommend you to the Emperor for the position of Court Judge."

"Your Majesty?" Lin Yi lowered his head, feeling troubled. "But Your Majesty has always been treated by Court Judge Xu. I'm afraid..."

"That would be even better." The Concubine turned to look at him. "Counselor Xu has been treating the Emperor for years with no improvement. If you were to take all the credit, what do you think would happen?"

"To put it bluntly, as long as Xu Shizhang is around, you'll never have a chance to turn things around."

Lin Yi thought about it after hearing this, and looked sideways at the sky outside the window.

The autumn wind, wrapped in chill, blew through the corridors of the palace, and the palace maids and eunuchs walked quickly, clasping their hands and rubbing their arms.

Lu Ziqing was carrying the medicine box and sinking in the cold wind, with his clothes lifted up and swaying sideways. He squinted his eyes and walked around the corner, and saw a familiar person.

It’s Hongxiu!

Lu Ziqing quickly retreated to the corner and looked not far away. Two palace maids pulled Hongxiu and asked.

"Sister Hongxiu, I've noticed that Consort Chen is looking very well these days. Her skin is fair, smooth, and radiant. She's so beautiful. Could you please tell our Consort about this secret recipe?"

"Yes, Sister Hongxiu, just tell us. We are all sisters."

"Our queen is naturally beautiful, so why does she need any prescription? This kind of thing is only used by people from small families and those who lack confidence." Hongxiu said, pushing away the palace maid's hand.

"I have to hurry to the Needlework Bureau, so I won't chat with you two sisters any more."

The two palace maids looked at Hongxiu's back and quietly said "Pooh".

"What the hell, you're hiding this little bit of beauty, are you born beautiful? Humph, your face used to be so gloomy, you'd be covered in half a pound of powder every day, you could scrape it off and use it to smear the city walls."

"That's right. She clearly became beautiful because of Doctor Lin's secret recipe, but she still refuses to admit it. The master and servant are the same. Her brother is in prison, and her father has been dismissed from office, yet she is still so arrogant. I'll just wait and see when she cries."

Lu Ziqing put the organized pulse case on the file rack with a sign, then picked up a towel and started cleaning.

Not long after, Chi Musheng walked in from outside and asked him, "So you are here. It took me so long to find you."

"What do you want to see me about, Lord Chi?" Lu Ziqing asked while wiping the wooden frame.

Chi Musheng said, "The autumn hunt is approaching, and this time the master wants you to go with him. We'll set off the day after tomorrow. Go back and prepare some clothes and other things."

Lu Ziqing glanced at him sideways, "Is it far?"

"Yes." Chi Musheng said, "It's at the Nanfeng Hunting Ground outside the city. We'll be staying there for a few days."

"Okay." Lu Ziqing took the towel in his hand and looked at him and said, "Thank you for what happened to Wu Ji yesterday. If it weren't for Lord Chi's help, I'm afraid..."

"It's a small matter, not worth mentioning." Chi Musheng smiled. "The people in the palace are complicated. There are too many people who are hostile to you. They can't do anything to you, so they start with the people around you. You must be careful and cautious in the future."

The archive room was much cleaner than before because Lu Ziqing cleaned and tidied it frequently, so it didn't take long.

He walked to the corridor and saw Lin Yi coming back from outside. He shouted at the top of his voice, "Master Lin."

Lin Yi tilted his head when he heard the voice, and walked over with a smile on his face, "You didn't see any patients this afternoon?"

"I've been back for a while." Lu Ziqing said, "I just finished cleaning the archive room. Which Empress's palace are you going to?"

Lin Yi said "Oh", "The little princess of Concubine Yu has caught a cold, and she sent me to treat her. I still need to prescribe a prescription, so I won't tell you for now."

"and many more."

"what happened?"

Lu Ziqing's eyes darkened for a moment. "I just want to ask, how effective is the prescription for Lord Lin's fiancée?"

"So that's what happened." Lin Yi said with a smile, "I want to thank you. The effect on her after using it was very good. Your prescription worked wonders. I'll thank you again when I have time in the future."

Lu Ziqing smiled and said, "I am truly fortunate to be able to help Lord Lin. No need to thank me. If you need me in the future, Lord Lin, please just let me know."

"Good brother, let's go." Lin Yi smiled, patted his arm and left.

Nanfeng Hunting Ground is located south of the imperial city and covers a very large area. It not only has birds and beasts, but also grows fruits and vegetables. Most of the food for Guanglu Temple comes from here.

A large number of imperial guards and royal guards escorted the emperor in front and behind, following him in a mighty procession.

Wu Ji opened the curtain of the sedan chair, stuck his head out, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, feeling as happy as if he had absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

"It's so beautiful."

Lu Ziqing also looked outside. "The maple leaves are like fire, the ginkgo leaves are like gold, and the mountains and forests are all dyed in color. It is indeed beautiful."

"Why didn't you stay at home to recuperate? Why did you insist on coming here just to see the scenery?" Chi Musheng pointed at Wu Ji and looked at Lu Ziqing, "You have to take care of this."

Wu Ji retracted his head upon hearing this, met Lu Ziqing's warm smiling face, and said to him.

"I'm bored in the palace. It's rare for me to come out. Let him be."

There was a brief silence in the sedan chair. After a while, Chi Musheng looked at Wu Ji and asked.

"Is there something on your brother Lu's face? He keeps staring at it."

As soon as these words were spoken, the relaxed atmosphere suddenly became focused, and Lu Ziqing also looked at Wu Ji.

Wu Ji met their gazes, his face flushed red, and he turned away to explain.

"I, I was thinking, Big Brother Lu is always so good to me. Apart from my parents, no one has ever cared about me so much. I was distracted by thinking about it."

"Your brother Lu is really good to you, but..." Chi Musheng joked, "Why are you blushing? You're acting like a grown-up girl. I've never seen you like this before."

Wu Ji looked embarrassed, “Who said only grown-up girls can blush? I won’t tell you anymore.

After he finished speaking, he turned towards the window with a red face, only to hear the two people behind him laughing in tacit understanding, which was soon drowned out by the sound of horse hooves.

It was Su Chengfeng, Yang Zhounan and some noblemen riding past on horseback.

When Su Chengfeng saw Wu Ji, his eyebrows almost reached the sky. He reined in his horse and slowed down to follow the sedan chair.

"Why did you come here too? Why don't you stay at home and recuperate? Be careful of your wound getting infected after traveling such a long distance. I won't cry for you."

"Who asked you to cry for me? I'll let you..." Wu Ji reached out through the window and pinched him, but missed. "Don't hide, come back."

"Hey, let's go." Su Jiama ran away with a grin on his face.

Whenever these two people get together, they always play around, which makes the sedan chair full of fun.

Before Wu Ji could sit back down, he turned around and saw the head of a black horse in front of him. He was startled.

Xiao Yan and Chen Jing rode their horses slowly together, and the people in the sedan chair nodded to them as a sign of greeting.

Chen Jing asked from the sedan chair, "Can Ziqing ride and shoot?"

Lu Ziqing recalled that on the way back to Beijing from the Northern Expedition, Xiao Yanchong said to him and Su Chengfeng, "Your archery skills are not bad."

Although he didn't mention his name directly, for some reason, I suddenly felt that it would be inappropriate to say no in front of this person.

He turned away from Xiao Yan's eyes and coughed dryly.

"will not."
