Chapter 361
The emperor saw Wei Yan and Yu Xianshi “talk to each other”, his heart is quite happy, smiled and instructed: “Doctor Wei, you have been by my side for many years, the most clear understanding of my physical condition
-Yu Xianshi is preparing to practice things, if there is something need to ask you, you may as well tell the truth
It will also save Immortal Master Yu from having to go through more trouble”
Wei Yan respectfully answered
The Emperor smiled at Daoist Master, “Immortal Master Yu is good at practicing pills and must be very proficient in various medicines as well
This Imperial Doctor Wei beside me has been studying the art since he was a young boy, and it has been twenty years since then
His medical skills are exquisite and unrivaled
When Immortal Master Yu has spare time, he may as well spar with Dr Wei more often
Taking from each other’s strengths is also a beautiful thing”
Daoist Master Yu flung the duster in his hand, “I respectfully follow the Emperor’s will”
The Emperor nodded in satisfaction
King Yan wasted no time in greeting and patting his horse, “Letting Imperial Doctor Wei and Immortal Master Yu instruct each other, complementing each other’s deficiencies and improving together
Father is wise!
I admire you, my son!”
The wise Emperor stroked his whiskers in triumph and smiled
He was also self-conscious that this was a brilliant idea
Practicing the elixir of longevity was indeed tempting
However, he wasn’t so senile that he believed whatever others said
It was still uncertain how potent the elixir practiced by Daoist Yu would be
In addition to letting people test the medicine, but also let Wei Yan carefully study and ponder – with Wei Yan’s medical skills, at least can check whether the elixir on the body impediment
In doing so, it was also considered to be the best use of a human being!
Wei Yan and Daoist Yu are both smart people, and soon understood the emperor’s intentions
Of course Daoist Yu was not happy in his heart
This is using him while not trusting him at the same time!
What mutual guidance, it was clear that he wanted Wei Yan to check his pills!
As for Wei Yan, his heart was also a little bit concerned
The Emperor’s plan is quite good!
Of course, he will certainly “do his best” to cooperate with
He would certainly do his best to cooperate with the Emperor so that he would not be too worried to take the elixir
After Daoist Yu and the others retired, the Emperor purposely left Wei Yan behindImperial Doctor Wei, you’ve been by my side for so many years, the person I trust the most is you”
The Emperor said cordially, “Immortal Master Yu is almost ready to practice the first furnace of elixir
For seventy-seven or forty-nine days, the furnace fire must not be interrupted, otherwise the elixir will not be produced”You will go to the Dan practicing room every day from today onwards”
Lest Wei Yan didn’t understand what he meant, the Emperor made it more straightforward, “The various medicinal herbs and utensils used for practicing pills, you will look at them carefully
If there are any interactions or anything wrong, you – Also, after the practiced pills are presented, you and Dr Zhou will check the pills together
Make sure that the pills are safe before I take them”
Wei Yan looked solemn as he received the decree, “I will definitely do my best and never fail to live up to the Emperor’s expectations”
The Emperor’s expression slowed: “Don’t worry
The person I trust the most has always been you
Now you are still young, it is not appropriate to live in a high position
After Dr Zhang’s old age and honorable retirement, the position of medical director of this Imperial Hospital is yours, and no one can snatch it away”
Ordinary eunuchs only had a fifth grade position
The Medical Director of the Imperial Hospital, however, was a third rank official position
Being in charge of the Imperial Hospital is also an extremely honorable position
Wei Yan was touched with gratitude, “Your Majesty treats my humble servant so generously, my humble servant really doesn’t know how to repay Your Majesty’s kindness of knowing me”
The emperor laughed: “You are loyal to me, I would not know
This is all what you deserve”What I said to you today, you should not mention it to the second person
Retire first and rest well!
Starting tomorrow, go to the Dan training room”
Wei Yan once again received the decree and thanked him for his kindness, then retired
The Emperor was quite self-satisfied with his arrangement, stroking his whiskers and smiling in an excellent mood
From the next day onwards, Wei Yan had one more errand to do
Every day to the emperor first diagnose the pulse, prescribing medicines to regulate the body
Then he had to go and stay in the Dan Training Room
From the outside, it seems that this room seems to be similar
The chamberlain and the palace maid are not allowed to enter the room
All the things needed for practicing pills are prepared by the Taoist priests themselves, and the one who guards the fire is the Taoist boy beside the Taoist master
Several Taoist boys worked in shifts to guard and control the fire, the size of the fire needed to be carefully controlled, there were four hours a day with a fierce fire, then four hours with a warm fire, and at night, it was changed to a small fire
The dosage and order of the ingredients are also very strict
All of these were personally handled by Daoist Master Yu, and the other several Daoist priests only played the part of the subordinate
Wei Yan had been ordered to enter the Dan training room, obviously to “ask for advice”, but actually to supervise the process of Dan training
This is not only clear to Wei Yan, but also to Daoist Yu
Even if his heart was not happy, Taoist Master Yu did not show half of it, and his attitude towards Wei Yan was very courteous
Let Wei Yan look around and watch
Wei Yan opened his mouth to ask questions, Yu Taoist never excuses, will inevitably answer – of course, the answer to the rough and detailed it is hard to say
Whether Wei Yan understands or not, it has nothing to do with him
Wei Yan is clear about the rejection of the head of the Taoist, only to do not know, every day on time to the practice room, at least will stay for half a day before leaving
Those Taoist priests can’t help but mutter a few times in front of Taoist Master Yu: “This Doctor Wei, he is very handsome, but he is also too young
Are the medical skills really as brilliant as some people have rumored?”It may not be as good as the reputation
As I see it, it’s just dipped in the light of Empress Xianfei”Relying on the Emperor’s favor, she came to our Dan Training Room to make a fool of herself!”And asking questions all day long, with a lofty look that makes people uncomfortable to look at”That’s it,” “All shut up!”
As soon as Daoist Master Yu opened his mouth, the crowd of Taoist priests were immediately silenced
These few Taoist priests usually lived on their own side, and they all had some reputation and origin
One by one, they prided themselves on being extraordinary and defying each other
Now that they had all been invited to the palace by the King of Yan, they were originally a scattered mass
Yu Taoist master Taoist masters, both the Yan King’s pleasure, but also for the Emperor’s respect, just like becoming the head of the Taoist priests
At first there are people who are not convinced, and then by the master of the Taoist secretly difficult a few times, had to bow to recognize the leader
Yu Taoist chief swept his eyes, the gaze sharp as a knife: “What is this place?
Be careful what you say
That Wei Yan’s medical skills are indeed excellent, otherwise, relying only on Lady Xian Fei, how could he gain such trust and honor from the Emperor!
You must not underestimate him!”
The crowd of Taoist priests were said to be aghast in their hearts and responded coylyWhether or not this elixir can be practiced is a matter of our lives and future
You all need to be more attentive!”
Daoist Master Yu added in a deep voice, “As for Wei Yan, let’s not worry about him for now
If anything happens, I’ll handle it
You guys don’t have to say much in front of him
Lest too many words are lost”
The Taoist priests didn’t dare to talk too much and answered one by one
