Severed ties and living in a dilapidated house? No worries, the poor thing has a space.

Fang Yu gently shook his head, a faint smile on his face, and replied softly, "You gentlemen are too kind. I am just a villager from the countryside. I only know a little bit about medicine. How could I dare to accept the word 'enlightenment'?"

Her words sounded incredibly humble, yet her attitude was exceptionally firm, showing no sign of wavering.

But the imperial physician Zhang clearly had no intention of giving up. He hurriedly stepped forward, clasped his hands in a respectful bow, and earnestly explained:

“Young lady, you are too modest! The prescription you gave us earlier is one that even we old folks wouldn’t dare to try easily.”

"This alone is enough to prove that you have extremely high attainments and extraordinary talent in medicine, and you are absolutely qualified to instruct us."

At this moment, another, slightly older, imperial physician also spoke up:

"The truly wise live in the city, while the lesser hermits hide in the quiet countryside. Could it be that you, young lady, despise us for being old, weak, and dull-witted, and therefore no longer of use, and thus refuse to instruct us?"

Although this person's words contained dissatisfaction and doubt, a closer listen reveals an even greater sense of grievance.

Before he finished speaking, the relatively younger-looking imperial physician standing to the side quickly echoed his words.

He quickly shook his sleeves a few times, as if trying to express his urgency, and said impatiently:

“Young lady, I am still young and inexperienced, and I need the guidance of an expert like you. I hope you will not look down on us for being old and frail, or for our limited knowledge and skills, and will generously offer your instruction!”

Their eagerness and impatient attempts to lower themselves to seek knowledge were so ridiculous that Fang Yu couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Fang Yu nodded slightly and said softly, "Since you gentlemen are so kind as to not mind my lack of knowledge, then I will humbly offer my prescription."

Before he finished speaking, they nodded in agreement, as if afraid that they would miss this rare learning opportunity if they were a second late, and eagerly signaled Fang Yu to start writing.

Fang Yu instantly became the focus of everyone's attention, surrounded by several anxious imperial physicians.

Before the prescription was even fully written, they couldn't contain their excitement and began nodding in admiration, their eyes filled with respect.

Fang Yu's appearance was like a gentle spring breeze, easily resolving the previously deadlocked situation.

After all the poor people who had contracted the plague had taken the medicine, the imperial physicians who were eager to learn rushed over and surrounded Fang Yu.

They eagerly bombarded Fang Yu with one difficult question after another, questions they had struggled to answer despite their usual struggles, their faces filled with a thirst for knowledge.

Faced with these thorny issues, Fang Yu showed no impatience whatsoever. Instead, she smiled and patiently and meticulously answered their questions one by one.

Not only that, she also generously shared her notes from her past research on animals with everyone without reservation.

"This is it!" Physician Zhang's eyes, already bright, shone even brighter as he looked at the notes she had made.

He asked incredulously, "So, young lady, all the animals you've treated in the past were beasts?"

That means I'm a veterinarian.

Fang Yu nodded calmly: "That's true."

Unexpectedly, they became even more excited and bowed once more, saying, "We are humbled and have learned a great deal."

Fang Yu waved his hand: "No need for formalities, esteemed gentlemen. I am just passing through this place and it is only by chance that I can lend a hand. As you can see, my medical skills are more than enough to treat animals."

“Please don’t be modest, young lady. If it weren’t for you, all the people in this city would have been able to survive, and we would all have retired to our fields. Your actions are truly benevolent and righteous.”

At this moment, the young imperial physician suddenly said, "Young lady, your medical skills are superb. Would you consider joining the Imperial Medical Bureau? If you are willing, there is a place for you in the Imperial Medical Bureau."

The main reason is that there is a position for female officials in the Imperial Medical Bureau, and the Northern Yu Kingdom has always adhered to the principles of fairness, impartiality, and meritocracy in the selection of female officials, and has never imposed gender restrictions.

That's why these adults said those things to Fang Yu.

Fang Yu tilted his head slightly, casting his gaze in the opposite direction from the city gate.

There stood her mother and sister, eagerly awaiting her return.

Moreover, the real culprit who murdered the original owner's father is still at large and has not yet been apprehended.

Thinking of this, Fang Yu couldn't help but smile slightly, then slowly shook his head, indicating his refusal:

"Thank you all for your kindness and good intentions. I am grateful in advance. I come from a rural area and am used to a carefree life. I am not capable of serving in this position. Rather than becoming an official, I am more interested in farming and raising chickens."

Faced with Fang Yu's firm refusal, the adults immediately showed obvious disappointment.

However, they did not insist on forcing Fang Yu to accept the job.

Everyone present knew perfectly well that the woman before them was a friend of the Crown Prince.

The slightly somber atmosphere was suddenly broken.

Mo Shisan arrived at breakneck speed, his mouth agape in a wide grin, his face brimming with undisguised joy.

From afar, he shouted loudly in the direction of Fang Yu, "Miss Fang, my master has woken up!"

Upon hearing this news, Fang Yu immediately put down the medicinal herbs she was sorting and hurried towards the location of Mo Shisan.

Fang Yu took a few steps ahead and left, while Mo Shisan remained standing in the same spot.

He slowly turned around, his gaze fixed intently on the group of imperial physicians behind him, and then asked, "Gentlemen, what were you talking about just now?"

He arrived in a hurry, but he vaguely heard a few words.

Although Mo Shisan appeared to be asking casually, his deep eyes actually revealed a clear warning.

At this moment, the man known as Physician Zhang quickly stepped forward and respectfully replied, "Lord Mo, we have just been discussing some difficult medical issues with Miss Fang."

Just as he finished speaking, Physician Zhang suddenly rolled his eyes and said:

"I've heard that Miss Fang and His Highness are good friends. I wonder if His Highness could persuade Miss Fang to join our Imperial Medical Academy? This would undoubtedly be a great boon to our Imperial Medical Academy!"

As soon as Physician Zhang finished speaking, Mo Shisan's brows furrowed suddenly, as if he had suddenly thought of something that displeased him.

Xiao Jingqi's handsome face flashed through his mind.

His face suddenly darkened, becoming somewhat gloomy. He glared fiercely at the group of imperial physicians before him, and warned them sternly:

"I understand the Imperial Medical Academy's eagerness to recruit talent. However, I advise you gentlemen to abandon this idea as soon as possible. Even His Highness the Crown Prince cannot sway Miss Fang's wishes. Therefore, I hope you will put this matter aside!"
