On the day when the third prince fell from his horse and was seriously injured, Emperor Zongming issued an order to send Qing Pingzi to diagnose and treat the third prince.
The results were the same as the day before.
Injuries may not lead to death, but disability is inevitable.
The good news is that Emperor Zongming never punished Tai Hospital again.
As for the deceased Imperial Physician Lin and Imperial Physician Ling Pang Qi, who would say anything for them?
Even without involving the Taiyuan Hospital, it can be called "the emperor's grace".
The Taiyuan Hospital, which had just improved, could not help but feel depressed.
It is worth mentioning that seven days later, Gu Dan met Lin Xiaoyi again.
This time, it was because Lin Xiaoyi's biological mother died.
The reason was that Lin Xiaoyi's biological mother secretly went to the third prince's mansion and asked for the body of Imperial Physician Lin to be confiscated, but she was beaten to death by a servant.
If I can’t cure the alchemist, I can’t cure you?
When he saw Lin Xiaoyi again, Lin Xiaoyi was no longer at a loss as before, but more grief-stricken.
In just seven days, the initial family reunion turned into the death of both parents. This kind of shock was really too big for a fourteen-year-old girl.
This nightmare did not fade away as quickly as she had hoped, but instead intensified.
"Brother Gu, my mother and father are both good people, and they have never made any mistakes in treating patients... Why is this happening?"
Gu Dan still couldn't forget Lin Xiaoyi's confusion when she asked him about it.
"It's not that you can avoid all disasters by always staying on your toes."
In the end, Gu Dan could only say this.
...
Time flies, two years have passed.
The students of the Mohist martial arts school have changed several times, and most of them have been studying for a month or two and then become unsustainable.
After all, learning martial arts really costs a lot of money.
His drug store business has also improved to some extent and is no longer half-dead. Even just by selling tonic medicine packs to students, he can still make a pretty good income.
In two years, the prison was almost full of prisoners again, and he began to walk to the prison every day again.
Life becomes calm and peaceful, as if what happened two years ago was just an illusion.
Even the Imperial Hospital has become silent. The newly appointed Imperial Physician Ling is a man who is not good at words. Perhaps the previous Imperial Physician Ling taught him an unforgettable lesson. When he was in office, he would not do anything if he did not cause trouble. He would quietly mess around. Eat and wait to die.
On this day, Xu Zhian suddenly came over with a smile on his face, carrying good wine and food.
"Uncle Xu, what happy event is this?"
Gu Dan quickly took it. He had not seen Xu Zhian so happy for a long time.
"Go to the house and say it!"
Xu Zhian smiled happily, trying hard not to laugh out loud, his face turned red from holding back.
After the wine was put on the table and the dishes were placed, Xu Zhian closed the door and said: "The third prince is dead!"
This sound contained a lot of anger and resentment, and seemed particularly happy.
Gu was overjoyed and applauded.
After all, he is still a human being, with seven emotions and six desires, and he cannot be completely determined.
Ignore those who bear grievances, ignore those who sacrifice their lives for righteousness, ignore disasters when they come, ignore happy events in the world, and live forever. Can the stone of billions of years prove immortality?
But then I was confused. Although the third prince was paralyzed in bed, he was not seriously injured. How could he die just two years ago?
Xu Zhian took a sip of wine and said: "Ha, that man was paralyzed behind the bed. His temper became more and more irritable and irritable, and he beat and killed his slaves at every turn. What he liked to do most was to tie the slaves with ropes and tie them to the back of the horse. Drag to death!”
Gu was worried and awe-inspiring.
This is not an era of rule of law. No one can punish and control lawless people like the third prince. Who makes me the god of this era?
There is no need for any reason at all. Killing a few servants is nothing. Even the death of the fifth-grade imperial doctor and the eighth-grade imperial doctor in the hands of the other party is just a symbolic retreat to reflect on their mistakes.
"That's not all. Later, he felt that killing slaves was not satisfying enough, so he started to kill maids. While swimming in the lake, he ordered people to push the maid into the lake. After watching the maid drown in fear, he fished her out and skinned her. Dry them to make scrolls and tattoo them on the walls to make adult paintings..."
Just listening to it made Gu Dan feel chills all over his body.
"After this happened, at a banquet, the maids teamed up and strangled the third prince to death with white silk. I just learned the news."
Xu Zhian kept drinking wine, his voice was quite happy, but his eyes couldn't help but turn red.
The damned person is dead, but the former friend will never stand up again.
"drink wine."
Gu Dan filled the bowl for Xu Zhian again and became more determined to practice hard.
Even if you don't want to hurt others, when disaster befalls you, you must have enough confidence and strength to say no.
After three rounds of drinking, Xu Zhian was already drunk and hazy. He reached out his hand and gently patted Gu Dan's shoulder and said, "Xiaoyi is getting married."
"That's a good thing!"
Gu Dan nodded. Marrying at the age of sixteen was neither too early nor too late in this era. It was normal.
After experiencing the separation of parents, it is also a good thing to find support early.
"I want to marry the fourth prince, Prince Yu."
Xu Zhian added.
"Fourth Prince?"
This made Gu Dan couldn't help being surprised.
Wanting to marry a prince is not that simple.
"Some time ago, the fourth prince's biological mother was ill, and Xiaoyi went to the palace for diagnosis and treatment. Prince Yu went to visit, and after going back and forth, he probably saw the right eye."
Xu Zhian was quite emotional.
He once wanted to bring Gu Dan and Lin Xiaoyi together, but unfortunately the two of them seemed to have no interest in each other, which made him appear to be too busy.
Gu Dan nodded slightly, noncommittal.
The disadvantage of the hospital is that it is almost impossible to get relief from medical troubles, and there is absolutely no place to reason.
The advantage is that the level of contact is either rich or noble, and all kinds of opportunities that ordinary people can only dream of are nothing.
As long as you can please one person, you will be rich and powerful.
There were many concubines in the harem, and no matter how much Emperor Zong Ming prayed for immortals, he would not let the alchemists go to the harem to cast spells. Xiaoyi was able to enter the royal family with this, which was considered her own ability.
"Xiao Yi is younger than you, and she is about to get married. Why is there still no movement here?" Xu Zhian bared his teeth, "There are three ways to be unfilial, and the worst is not having an heir. Your father is gone, and I am still watching you. Looking after you!"
Gu Dan never expected that Xu Zhian was still thinking about urging the marriage at this time.
"Yeah, yeah, it's coming, it's coming. Uncle Xu, drink more. Where are you raising fish?" Gu Dan quickly refilled the glass.
Soon, Xu Zhian fell down on the table.
Gu Dan helped Xu Zhian aside to rest, thinking silently in his heart.
It had only been two years, the third prince was dead, and Lin Xiaoyi was about to marry Prince Yu.
Things in the world are impermanent and can change in the blink of an eye.
Standing in the world, time itself is the best catalyst.
There was no need for him to take action against the enemy. With the passage of time, the enemy would disappear.
He seemed to understand the immortals somewhat.
