A thin, middle-aged man with a goatee, about 1.7 meters tall, rushed into the main hall of the Imperial Medical Bureau. He saw an elderly man with white eyebrows, wearing a black hat and a green robe, sitting beside him, looking down at a medical book. Recognizing this man as the Imperial Physician Chao Yuanfang, he hurriedly said:
"Imperial Physician Chao, where is my son?"
Chao Yuanfang looked up at him and saw that his eyes were full of anxiety. He raised his wrinkled finger and pointed to the bed not far away.
Upon hearing this, Wei Zheng looked over and first saw Wang Gui, who was still unconscious. Then he saw Wei Shuyu lying on the soft couch with his eyes closed. His expression changed, and he rushed over in a panic, saying, "Shuyu, Shuyu?"
Seeing that he was still unconscious, Wei Zheng turned his head and asked anxiously, "Imperial Physician Chao, how is my son?"
Chao Yuanfang said slowly, "Don't worry, it's not a serious injury. You'll be fine when you wake up."
"That brat from the Cheng family, I, Wei Zheng, am sworn enemies with him!"
Wei Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, but then couldn't help but curse loudly. Suddenly, he noticed that there was a young man lying next to Wei Shuyu, who turned out to be Feng Yandao. Next to Feng Yandao was a middle-aged man in a green robe. Upon closer inspection, his pupils shrank sharply, and he exclaimed, "Isn't this Liu Xiangdao, the Imperial Censor?"
As a censor, he not only knew Liu Xiangdao, but also all the censors in the Censorate.
Chao Yuanfang shook his head and said, "What Vice Minister? He's now a Censor-in-Chief, demoted by His Majesty."
Wei Zheng asked in surprise, "Who did this?"
Chao Yuanfang pondered for a moment and said, "The one who brought your son to the Imperial Medical Academy."
Wei Zheng roared in anger, "Why is it Cheng Jun again?!"
"Not only that, he is now an imperial censor."
Upon hearing this, Wei Zheng gasped. If he remembered correctly, the selection of the imperial censors hadn't even been a day yet...
In less than a day, Cheng Jun not only became an imperial censor, but also sent so many people to the Imperial Medical Academy.
Just then, an old man of about sixty years old, dressed in a purple robe, rushed in in a panic, shouting, "Where is my son? Where is my son?"
Chao Yuanfang glanced at him, recognized him as Duke Feng Deyi of Mi State, and pointed to the bed, saying, "Over there."
Feng Deyi hurried over and saw Feng Yandao lying on the couch with his eyes closed. His eyes reddened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Well, well, what a Cheng family's third son! He's bullying this old man!"
"This kid is truly despicable!"
At this moment, an indignant voice rang out from the side: "If it weren't for him, my son and your son would already be censors, and they would never have been able to enter the Imperial Medical Bureau!"
Feng Deyi turned his head and saw that Wei Zheng was also there. He said angrily, "Doctor Wei, let's go to the Cheng residence and settle accounts with Cheng Yaojin!"
Wei Zheng looked at him, a plan forming in his mind, and shook his head, saying, "Going there is no use. You know Cheng Yaojin, he's just a brute who only knows how to protect his own, he doesn't know how to reason."
Feng Deyi's anger intensified upon hearing this. "What do you mean? You're telling me to just let this go?"
“That’s not what I meant,” Wei Zheng leaned closer to him and said solemnly, “Lord Feng, if you want to seek justice for your son, you can’t go to Cheng Yaojin, you should go to His Majesty!”
"I'll go right now!"
Feng Deyi cursed and said, "He beat my son! I don't believe Cheng Jun can still hold his position as Censor!"
Seeing that he was about to leave, Wei Zheng immediately grabbed him and said in a deep voice, "Cheng Jun is the censor chosen by His Majesty. If you go to His Majesty now and ask him to retract his order, isn't that slapping His Majesty in the face? How can His Majesty agree to that?"
"If you ask me, you should go to court tomorrow morning!"
Wei Zheng explained, “I know His Majesty’s character very well. He will definitely have Cheng Jun attend the morning court session tomorrow so that all the officials can see the censor he has carefully selected.”
"When the time comes, you will raise your objection in front of all the officials in the court. Even if His Majesty doesn't want to agree, he will have no choice but to agree!"
“That makes sense!” Feng Deyi’s eyes lit up, and he grabbed the old man’s wrist, saying, “Tomorrow you will impeach Cheng Jun with me!”
"I can't," Wei Zheng said, rubbing his forehead. "I'm feeling weak and dizzy right now. I'm unwell and will probably need to recuperate at the Imperial Medical Bureau for two days."
Without much thought, Feng Deyi gritted his teeth and said, "Then you help me look after Yandao. Tomorrow I will go to the morning court to impeach that brat from the Cheng family!"
Wei Zheng solemnly cupped his hands and said, "I will wait here for good news regarding the appointment of a duke!"
Feng Deyi glanced at Feng Yandao again, and seeing that he still showed no signs of waking up, he sighed, gave Wei Zheng a few more instructions, and then left the Imperial Medical Bureau in a huff.
Wei Zheng watched him leave. He had originally intended to personally impeach Cheng Jun, but he discovered that the third son of the Cheng family was unexpectedly powerful in combat, having defeated several people in a single day, which made him more cautious.
"Let Feng Deyi lead the charge and probe Cheng Jun's capabilities first..." Wei Zheng thought to himself.
…………
the next day.
Early in the morning, Cheng Jun yawned as he finished washing up, put on his official robes and hat, and went to the main room. He found that only Cheng Zhong was inside, preparing breakfast.
"Sanlang, breakfast is ready. Eat some before you go to court."
"it is good!"
Cheng Jun nodded and sat down, picking up his chopsticks and small bowl. Noticing that Cheng Yaojin wasn't in the room, he asked curiously, "Did my father go to the palace first?"
"Your Highness is off today and need not attend court."
Cheng Jun nodded and said nothing more. After finishing breakfast, he washed his hands and rinsed his mouth again. When he came out of the main room, he saw Cheng Zhong leading in a black horse.
"Sanlang, please mount your horse!"
Cheng Jun took the reins, mounted the horse, and did so in one smooth motion.
Cheng Zhong admired his movements as he mounted his horse and said, "Be careful on the road."
"it is good!"
Cheng Jun smiled, turned his horse around, and rode towards the palace.
