Another Dimensional Immortal Cultivation Tale: The Divine Doctor Against the Heavens
Chapter 76 The Prime Minister's Mansion at its Peak, Prosperous and Flourishing
In that bustling capital city, far from the sea of clouds and Bai Zixuan's small village, Prime Minister Yun's residence was truly extraordinary, like a dazzling pearl, firmly set in the center of the city, shining brightly and attracting special attention.
Red lanterns hung everywhere in the mansion, their vibrant red color resembling dancing flames, perfectly capturing the festive atmosphere.
Each lantern is decorated with exquisite patterns; some depict dragons and phoenixes, symbolizing good fortune and auspiciousness; others feature a profusion of flowers, symbolizing family prosperity and flourishing.
A gentle breeze blows, the lanterns sway softly, and the shadows on the ground dance merrily, like a group of happy little elves fluttering in the air.
Prime Minister Yun stood at the gate of his residence, dressed in a magnificent court robe. The fabric was of the finest quality, with finely interwoven silk threads that seemed to embody the craftsman's ingenuity. The gold threads on the robe shimmered brilliantly in the sunlight, like a golden dragon coiling around, its scales so lifelike that it seemed ready to take flight at any moment.
Prime Minister Yun wore an official's hat, the brim swaying lightly with his movements, highlighting his noble status. A proud smile radiated from his face, a testament to his years of strategic advice and planning in court, which had won countless honors for the country and his family, filling him with a profound sense of accomplishment. His eyes revealed wisdom and authority, as if they could see through everything, inspiring awe in all who beheld them.
Madam Yun, standing to the side, was also dressed up in a magnificent and colorful gown, every stitch and thread reflecting the exquisite skills of a top-notch embroiderer.
The magnificent robes are adorned with various floral patterns: peonies exude nobility, peonies are delicate, and lilies are refreshing, all blooming in competition on the brocade. The vibrant colors of the flowers, contrasting beautifully with the gold threads, create an unparalleled spectacle.
Lady Yun wore pearls and jade, a gold hairpin, a jade hairpin, and pearl earrings, each piece of jewelry extremely valuable. The gold hairpin was also inlaid with sparkling gemstones, which shimmered in the sunlight like stars in the night sky.
Her gaze swept joyfully over every corner of the mansion, her heart filled with happiness. This was her final resting place, the place where she had witnessed the rise and fall of her family, and now, in its prosperity, she was filled with countless emotions.
Prime Minister Yun was incredibly powerful in the court, easily defusing a major crisis that threatened the very survival of the nation. Enemy plots, internal strife, and border conflicts intertwined, forming a vast net that tightly enveloped the court.
Prime Minister Yun was like a master chess player. With his wit, he easily resolved these difficult problems on the grand chessboard of the imperial court. Every move he made was steady and methodical. He saw through the enemy's plot, quelled internal turmoil, and extinguished the flames of war on the border.
The emperor beamed with joy and showered the emperor with gifts.
Baskets of gold and silver treasures poured into the Prime Minister's mansion like a flowing river, their brilliance dazzling the eyes. Gold ingots were piled high like small mountains, and silver ingots shimmered brilliantly in the sunlight. Besides gold and silver, there were all sorts of novel silks, antiques, and paintings. The silks were vibrantly colored and soft to the touch, like touching clouds. The antiques and paintings were even rarer; some were genuine works by masters of previous dynasties, each stroke brimming with rich cultural significance; others were long-lost treasures, exuding a mysterious charm.
The most captivating item, however, had to be the golden plaque bestowed upon Prime Minister Yun's residence by the Emperor. Inscribed with the words "Loyal, Righteous, Virtuous, and a Pillar of the Nation," the plaque was made of pure gold and inlaid with precious gems. The characters on the plaque flowed with a powerful, flowing style, each one seemingly weighing a thousand pounds—a testament to the Emperor's high praise for Prime Minister Yun.
A golden plaque hung high above the mansion gate, gleaming in the sunlight, as if it were a symbol of the Yun family's glory. Like a dazzling pearl, it shone brightly in the bustling capital, showcasing the Yun family's splendor to all. Inside, the servants were busy as bees, working diligently for this grand celebration.
The servants moved swiftly, their figures darting back and forth within the mansion. Some carried heavy chests filled with congratulatory gifts, their shoulders slightly bent under the weight, yet their eyes shone with joy and pride. Fine beads of sweat glistened on their foreheads in the sunlight, but they dared not pause for a moment. They knew the weight of these gifts; each one bore witness to the Yun family's status and glory.
"Hey, take it easy! This is imperial porcelain. If you break it, we'll all be in big trouble!" a servant shouted to his companion, who was carrying the exquisite porcelain, his tone light and easygoing. The porcelain was absolutely stunning. The landscape painting on the vase was incredibly delicate, with clouds and mist seemingly floating among the mountains and water, making one feel as if they were actually there. The porcelain had a warm, jade-like texture and shimmered softly in the sunlight; it was truly a rare treasure.
"I know, don't worry about it. My hand is very steady!" the servant carrying the porcelain replied, taking even more careful steps and not daring to blink.
The servants in the manor were incredibly busy, like a flock of happy little sparrows, hopping and skipping about, extremely busy for this grand celebration. The young servants moved nimbly, running around the manor like little whirlwinds.
Some servants carried heavy boxes filled with congratulatory gifts. Although the weight almost bent their shoulders, their eyes shone with excitement. Fine beads of sweat glistened on their foreheads in the sunlight, but none of them dared to slacken their efforts in the slightest.
They knew perfectly well that these gifts were extremely important; each one represented the Yun family's prestige and glory. "Hey, you'd better be careful! This is porcelain bestowed by the Emperor. If you break it, we'll all be in deep trouble!" a servant shouted to his companion who was carrying the exquisite porcelain, his voice tinged with a hint of playfulness.
The porcelain was absolutely stunning. The landscape painting on the vase was exquisite, with clouds and mist seemingly floating among the mountains and water, making one feel as if they were strolling through a painting. The porcelain's texture was as warm and smooth as jade, radiating a soft glow in the sunlight—truly a rare treasure! Looking at the treasure in his hands, his hands trembled slightly, not because he lacked strength, but because he was so nervous his heart was about to jump out of his chest. He took small, hesitant steps, as if he dared not take a single step firmly.
The maids were happily tidying up the courtyard, their movements so light and nimble, like butterflies fluttering in the air.
Pots of blooming flowers were arranged beautifully, all carefully selected from various places. The vibrant peonies had large, beautiful blossoms with layers of petals, some fiery red, some as pink as the sunset, and some as white as snow. Their fragrance was so strong that just one whiff brought joy. Then there were the delicate orchids, their long leaves like green ribbons, their small flowers emitting a captivating fragrance, like elegant fairies.
In the garden of the mansion, the Yun family relatives sat together, laughing and joking, creating a lively atmosphere. It was simply a sea of flowers, with colorful blossoms everywhere.
A winding path, paved with colorful pebbles, meandered through the flowerbeds, shimmering beautifully in the sunlight. Several children frolicked and played among the flowers, like happy little birds soaring freely. They chased after colorful butterflies, waving their small nets in the air. "Haha, look, I caught you!" a little boy shouted excitedly, pouncing on a blue butterfly like a little tiger.
His little face was rosy, like a ripe apple, and his eyes sparkled with excitement.
But he was running too fast and tripped over a small stone, falling flat on his face with a "thud," his face instantly covered in mud. He looked absolutely ridiculous. This made the adults around him burst into laughter, their laughter echoing in the garden like pleasant music.
"Oh dear, you little rascal, look what you've done to yourself!" A kind old lady walked over with a smile and helped the little boy up.
Her eyes were full of doting affection as she gently brushed the dust off the little boy, murmuring loving words to him. The little boy scratched his head a little embarrassedly, but his gaze remained fixed on the butterfly that had flown away, his face full of resentment.
In the Prime Minister's study, Prime Minister Yun was engaged in a lively discussion of national affairs with several important court officials. The atmosphere in the study was relaxed and pleasant, as if even the air itself had become lighter.
Everyone sat around a large sandalwood table, which emitted a faint, pleasant fragrance. The wood grain was clearly visible, indicating its high value. The table was covered with ancient books and memorials, the pages of which were slightly yellowed and exuded an air of antiquity. Each book carried the wisdom of those who came before. The memorials were all sent by officials from various regions, covering all aspects of the country, from the daily lives of ordinary people to the state of the army and the nation's financial revenue and expenditure.
"Brother Yun, you have truly rendered a great service this time! Our country's current stability is largely thanks to you!" a minister exclaimed sincerely, stroking his long white beard, his eyes filled with admiration. His beard, long and white like silver frost in winter, swayed gently with his movements. His gaze towards Prime Minister Yun was filled with reverence, as if he were looking at a great hero.
"Haha, not at all, this is all thanks to everyone's hard work! However, we can't let our guard down; we need to prepare in advance!" Prime Minister Yun replied with a smile, his eyes brightening as a series of interesting ideas flashed through his mind. He knew that the stability of the country was like a sturdy castle, requiring constant repair and improvement; otherwise, a single misstep could lead to problems and trigger a massive disaster. He picked up a memorial to the throne and read it with great interest, raising an eyebrow as he became thoughtful.
Amidst this bustling scene, the Yun family's reputation was renowned far and wide, spreading throughout the land. Scholars and literati from all corners of the country vied to visit, eager to establish connections with the Yun family. Some arrived in carriages, speeding along the roads and kicking up clouds of dust; others rode horses, their hooves clattering beautifully on the stone pavement.
These scholars and gentlemen, dressed in various styles of clothing, some elegant and refined, others dashing and unrestrained, all shared a look of anticipation for the Yun family. Prime Minister Yun also seized this opportunity to recruit talent from all over, building strength for the nation. He even set up a special assessment area in his residence to evaluate these individuals.
The assessment covered a wide range of topics, including literary skills, discussions on governance, and moral character. Those with genuine talent quickly distinguished themselves during the assessments, and Prime Minister Yun treated them like treasures, placing them in suitable positions to contribute to the development of the nation and the Yun family!
In another part of the manor, there's the Yun family's pharmacy. This is a place meticulously managed by Yunhai's mother, Madam Yun, and now, thanks to Yunhai's fame, it's become even more bustling!
The pharmacy was filled with a rich aroma of herbs, a unique blend of bitter, sweet, and refreshing scents.
Rows of medicine cabinets were neatly arranged, and the names of the medicinal herbs were clearly written on each drawer.
The medicine cabinet was made of precious wood, with a smooth surface and a faint woody fragrance. Madam Yun personally treated the people in the pharmacy. Although her medical skills were not as miraculous as Yun Hai's, they were still deeply rooted in the essence of medical books such as the "Huangdi Neijing" (Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic).
She carefully took the pulse of an old man, gently placing her fingers on his wrist to feel the pulse beating.
Her brows furrowed slightly, her eyes particularly focused, as if she were whispering secrets to the old man's body. After thinking for a while, she said, "Grandpa, your qi and blood are not flowing smoothly. I'll prescribe a medicine for you. Just follow the prescription, get the medicine, and you'll get better after taking a few doses." After saying that, she picked up a brush and quickly wrote down the prescription on the paper.
