Prime Minister Lin immediately knelt down with his hands in his hands, with a frightened expression on his face, "Your Majesty, you know that my daughter has been poorly disciplined since she was a child, and she is used to speaking arrogantly, so please don't get angry. I asked her not to say anything, but in In front of the emperor, I naturally have to explain everything clearly."
Sure enough, as Lin Qingwan expected, this Lin Xiang was really an old fox. He could take what she said without knowing anything, and his performance was quite good.
After saying that, the middle-aged man looked towards Lin Qingwan, his tone was serious, a bit scolding, "Why don't you make it clear to the emperor quickly? The emperor is the emperor, what is there that he cannot know?"
Lin Qingwan nodded and said, "Your Majesty, my medical skills were actually taught by my mother."
"Your mother?" The emperor almost blurted out, his brows moving, and the expression on his face was full of disbelief.
Mrs. Lin has a good reputation in the capital. It is said that she is gentle and kind, and is a good helper for her husband and children. However, she is weak and has been plagued by illness in recent years.
So after hearing this answer, both the emperor and Prime Minister Lin were filled with doubts.
"Yes, it was indeed taught by my mother. When I was a child, I was too naughty, and my mother was always reluctant to punish me. When she asked me to copy books, I was always uninterested and would even fall asleep. Later, my mother discovered that instead of letting me copy books, Why don't you let me carry some medicinal materials, at least I won't get sleepy."
"Later, I became somewhat interested in medical skills, so I asked my mother to teach me, and then I started learning from scratch bit by bit. This study lasted for many years."
How could the emperor believe this so easily? He frowned and gently rubbed the table with his fingers, his eyes full of disbelief, "Mrs. Lin has been in the capital for many years, and there has never been any news that she has medical skills. She has never been in the palace before. You act like you don’t know anything about pharmacology, how can I teach you medical skills?”
"This is why my father and mother don't let me tell others about my medical skills." Lin Qingwan breathed out heavily, looking very frustrated.
"My mother was born in a high family, and every move she makes is brought up as a mistress of the house. Ever since she married my father, she has taken care of the affairs in the backyard seriously, taking care of her husband and raising her children. Every move she makes is a model for a noble lady in the capital."
"But the emperor doesn't know something. She has always cared about her medical skills. However, as Mrs. Lin, she can't show herself to the public, so she can only hide her skills. At the same time... she doesn't want to let some rumors spread in the capital. "
What she said was true and sincere, and every word was very clear. Prime Minister Lin felt strange, but subconsciously nodded in agreement with her, and finally let out a long sigh, "That's true. Madam asked me to keep this matter a secret. She also said ...I don’t want to cause unnecessary trouble.”
Seeing the appearance of the father and daughter, his eyes became a little wary, and he took another sip of tea, "Then why do you suddenly show off your medical skills at this time? Aren't you afraid that Mrs. Lin will be anxious? If Mrs. Lin really has With such superb medical skills, why is his health still so bad?"
Lin Qingwan responded calmly, "Has your Majesty ever heard of the principle that doctors don't heal themselves? Doctors can treat people all over the world, but they can't see their own illness. In the past few years, my mother's health has gotten worse and worse, and she always takes medicine. It’s not going well. I want to prescribe medicine for my mother, but I’m always worried that others will find out.”
"Later... I thought about it carefully and decided that I might as well tell my medical skills directly, so that I can go back to see my mother directly in the future and no longer have to hide it. What's more, I am now a wife and my personality is also different. Unlike my mother, even if others find out that I have medical skills, it probably won’t cause any trouble.”
She not only explained it for herself, but also matched it with facial expressions, which looked so vivid and real that even Prime Minister Lin, who clearly knew the truth, was in a daze for a moment.
In order to make the emperor believe it, he continued: "The emperor also knows that Qingwan has been very naughty since she was a child. She exposed her medical skills without even discussing it with me. She is really bold."
The two sang in harmony, and the emperor finally believed it. He raised his hand gently and said, "That's it, everyone, get up."
After he paused for a moment, he said, "It's a good thing to know how to heal. There's no need to hide it. My dear, do you know that your daughter not only restored Lieutenant General Shen's arm to its original state, but also saved Princess Zhao just now? She is really indispensable! I want to If you reward her, I will also reward you!"
Hearing the word "reward", Prime Minister Lin instantly became happy and his eyes shone brightly. "Thank you, Your Majesty. These are my responsibilities and what I should do."
The emperor laughed loudly, and seemed to remember something after he finished laughing, "By the way, since Mrs. Lin has excellent medical skills, she must know more than you. Why not let her come into the palace to teach the imperial doctors at the imperial hospital?" , what do you think?"
Prime Minister Lin's smile froze on his face instantly. Lin Qingwan's face turned red and her heart stopped beating. "To your Majesty, my mother has been tortured by illness in the past few years. Her body has already become very weak, and her memory has also declined rapidly. Many I don’t remember anything.”
"Treating patients and saving people is a very delicate job. It cannot be done casually. In order to cause unnecessary trouble, let's forget it."
What he said was true. Mrs. Lin's physical weakness and memory loss were something that the entire capital knew about. Prime Minister Lin also echoed from the side, "Yes, thank you for the honor, Your Majesty, but... her body is indeed not strong enough to support her to stay in the palace permanently."
"That's really a pity. There is another famous doctor missing in this world..." The emperor murmured, with a very regretful expression on his face, as if he hated himself for not discovering that there was such a powerful person in the capital earlier.
Lin Qingwan seized the opportunity, glanced sideways at Prime Minister Lin, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, although mother has forgotten many things, my daughter has learned all her medical skills. If your Majesty needs it, I will be your back. .”
These words were resounding and forceful, and it didn't seem like he was deliberately trying to please someone.
In fact, Lin Qingwan really wanted a chance to leave Prince Zhan's Mansion. She didn't want to stay with that half-hearted man for the rest of her life.
Prime Minister Lin also followed up and said: "Yes, Your Majesty, if necessary, my daughter can enter the palace at any time. Our Lin family's loyalty to the Emperor can be seen from heaven and earth, as shown by the sun and the moon, but His Majesty always follows his lead."
The emperor looked pleased and couldn't help but nodded and said, "Okay, okay! I'm relieved if you have this intention."
After all, he is the emperor. He is always worried that his ministers will have more power than himself, so he will give warnings from time to time. In a sense, he also wants to test the loyalty of Prime Minister Lin and the Lin family to him. This result , he was quite satisfied.
