Chapter 158: “Medical Saint”
Top Picks.
The next morning, Yun Che followed Lan Xueruo to the Cangfeng Imperial Palace.
Entering the palace for the first time in his life, Yun Che more or less had the feeling of Liu Lou Lou entering the Grand View Garden. The buildings of the palace were naturally all extremely atmospheric and luxurious, and everywhere shone with the gorgeous light of golden colored glazed tiles under the sunlight, directly dazzling Yun Che.
Lan Xueruo was still dressed in simple clothes, she wouldn’t be recognized outside, but within the palace, who wouldn’t be familiar with this only royal princess. Wherever they went, there was an endless stream of various guards and palace maids, and when they saw Lan Xueruo, they would all hurriedly bow down and respectfully shout “Princess Cang Yue”, Yun Che followed by Lan Xueruo’s side, and didn’t disguise himself or intentionally dress up for anything. The Crown Prince and the Third Prince naturally had a lot of eyes within the palace, and the matter of him following Lan Xueruo into the palace would definitely be quickly known by the Crown Prince and the Third Prince, but Yun Che did not put this matter on his mind. On the contrary, if he disguised himself and spread the news that Princess Cang Yue had brought a stranger into the palace to meet the Emperor, and the Crown Prince and the Third Prince were unable to find out about this person, it could be a problem for Lan Xueruo instead.
The palace was huge, and while walking, Lan Xueruo introduced Yun Che to the important buildings of the palace. Without realizing it, they had arrived before an imposing and brilliant palace.
“Here, this is my father’s chambers.” Lan Xueruo opened her mouth, looking slightly nervous. She was just like an ordinary young girl who brought her sweetheart to her parents for the first time, nervous that she would not be recognized by her parents.
There was a large pond on each side of the passageway leading to the palace, and the lotus flowers in the pond were in full bloom, with clear waves rippling, green willows brushing the water, lotus leaves slightly swaying, lotus flowers welcoming the wind, and a faint fragrance filling the air.
“Well, let’s go in.” Compared to Lan Xueruo, Yun Che was on the contrary very calm.
Lan Xueruo was in the lead, leading Yun Che towards this emperor’s chambers. Just as he stepped into the entrance, he saw an old man with a full body gray robe and a long beard hanging down his chest walk head on. Although this old man’s face appeared old, his hair and beard were dark, and he was obviously very good at maintaining his health, and from a distance, Yun Che could smell the faint scent of medicine.
Behind the old man were two attendants, and although they were only attendants, the arrogance could be seen in the depths of their eyes – even though this was in the middle of the palace.
Seeing this old man, Lan Xueruo’s footsteps lurched, then hurriedly greeted him, giving a slight salute and politely saying, ”Grandmaster Gu, you’re here. How is my father’s condition?”
Lan Xueruo’s actions caused Yun Che to be surprised for a moment. Judging from this old man’s clothes, he was obviously not a member of the royal family, but Lan Xueruo, with her status as a princess, actually took the initiative to go forward to greet her, and even accompanied it with a simple salute……. When Lan Xueruo shouted out the three words, “Grandmaster Gu,” Yun Che’s brows twitched, and he immediately thought of a person. of a person.
“So it’s Your Highness.” The old man smiled and returned the salute, his face was very kind: “I was summoned by the Emperor this morning, so I came to take a look. Last night’s night wind was slightly cold, the emperor suffered a bit of wind chill, already not in the way. As for the matter of the Emperor’s lifeblood …… alas, please forgive the old man’s incompetence, never find a solution.”
“Master Gu please don’t ever say that, life vein strain, there is simply no cure in the world. These years father emperor if not get ancient master care, I’m afraid …… In short, ancient master must not blame yourself. Cang Yue once again thanked Master Gu for his kindness.” Lan Xue Ruo said with a grateful face.
“For Princess Cang Yue to say so, it’s really discounting old me. Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will do my best to preserve our Emperor’s dragon body …… Now that the Emperor is about to rest in peace, if Your Highness wants to visit the Emperor, go in quickly, I will take my leave.”
“Good day to Master Gu.”
The old man carried the medicine chest and led his entourage slowly away. Lan Xue Ruo kept watching them leave, evidently respecting this old man. It was only when the old man walked away that Lan Xueruo turned her gaze and explained to Yun Che, “He is the Grandmaster Gu that I mentioned to you before, in these few years, he was the one who healed my father’s illnesses, and it is fortunate that there is a Grandmaster Gu, so that my father can live on until now.”
“His medical skills are strong?” Yun Che asked casually as he rested his chin in his hand.
“Grandmaster Gu Qiu Hong is already one hundred and sixty years old this year, and has the title of ‘Saint of Medicine’, his medical skills are so high that he tops the Cangfeng Empire, and no one can compare to him, and he is widely recognized as Cangfeng’s number one divine doctor. Moreover, the ancient master is not only excellent medical skills, but also knows the art of Xuanxuan, can for the Xuanxuan through the Kwai Shui Zi Que heart door three Xuanxuan, can get the ancient master Xuanxuan, almost all the Cangfeng Xuanxuan’s dream. Even the four great clans have been treating Grandmaster Gu as their guest of honor, respectfully requesting Grandmaster Gu every year for the core disciples of the clans to pass the Xuan. Therefore, Master Gu’s reputation in the Cangfeng Imperial City is extremely high, and the number of people who have begged him and owe him their lives and favors can’t be counted, so there has never been anyone who dares to offend Master Gu, or else there would be countless people who would take the initiative to stand up for Master Gu ……, including the four great sects of Heavenly Sword Villa, Ice Cloud Immortal Palace, Xiao Zong, and Burning Sky Sect. ”
When Lan Xue Ruo said these words, her face was full of admiration, obviously there was still more or less some admiration in her respect for this Ancient Master.
“Medical Saint?” The corners of Yun Che’s mouth grinned, showing a tiny arc of disdain …… The Medical Saint, was his master’s title. And in his heart, since his master was a medical saint, no one in this world would be worthy of the name of medical saint anymore!
“How is this Master Gu’s character?” Yun Che asked with intent.
Lan Xueruo said, “Master Gu not only has excellent medical skills, but also has a kind face and a kind heart, he is never arrogant because he is the First Divine Physician, and he never asks about the inferiority or superiority of his patients, and he often doesn’t take any money from the poor when he saves them. Therefore, Master Gu’s reputation in the Cangfeng Royal Family is extremely good, and everyone admires and praises him. However, it is said that his temper can be a bit stubborn at times, some patients who offend him, or whom he does not see eye to eye for some reason, even if he gives ten thousand gold, he will never save them.”
“Oh, is that so ……,” Yun Che nodded, “Let’s go, let’s go in and see your father.”
In terms of the ability to observe people, ten Lan Xueruo could not compare to Yun Che. At the first moment Yun Che saw Gu Qiu Hong, he directly concluded that …… this old man, was definitely not a good bird!
There was no special reason, it was simply a feeling, a feeling that was cultivated after facing countless people chasing after him, seeing countless kinds of ugliness, and experiencing the edge of life and death countless times.
Entering the bedchamber, the middle-aged eunuch beside the Emperor immediately went inside to report.
“Ever since Father Emperor suddenly became violently ill three years ago, he has spent most of his time in this bedchamber, rarely going out. Because Father Emperor’s body is just too weak to be subjected to a bit of wind and cold, even if he suffers from a small illness, it may trigger the danger of his life.” Blue Xue Ruo looked gloomy and said, “Father in this condition, can no longer run the affairs of state, but my eldest and third royal brothers led the wolves into the house, after that, not only disrespectful to father emperor, but also occasionally uttered words of persecution, making it impossible for father emperor to pass on the throne to them at all, and can only use their own lives to drag on day by day …… ”
“Don’t worry.” Yun Che gently pinched Lan Xueruo’s hand and comforted, “As I said, no matter what kind of disease it is, as long as it’s a disease, I will definitely have a way to cure it.”
These words were not Yun Che’s delusional words, he was a Healer Sage heir, and would never allow himself to dishonor his master’s name!
“I believe in you.” Lan Xueruo softly replied.
“Your Highness the Princess, and this little brother, the Emperor is already waiting for you inside, please come in.” The middle-aged eunuch bent at the doorway and respectfully said.
Entering the emperor’s chambers, Yun Che saw at a glance the old man who was leaning on the dragon couch. Lan Xueruo had just turned nineteen this year, and the Crown Prince was only thirty-three after eight days, so according to common sense, the emperor should only be fifty or sixty years old, and coupled with the fact that he was pampered within the imperial palace, with countless spiritual medicines and fruits, the emperor should not appear old at this age, but the person on the bed couch had a dry, waxy face, white hair, and a cloudy, lifeless gaze, just like a late old man in his eighties.
Yun Che’s eyebrows snapped up, this was ……
“Father Emperor!” Seeing Cang Wan Gul’s face so poorly, Lan Xueruo’s heart ached as she hurriedly rushed to the front of the bed, worrying, “Just now, I encountered Grandmaster Gu at the entrance to the bedchamber, and he said that you contracted wind chill again last night……. How do you feel now? Is there a little better?”
“Oh,” Cang Wan Gu lovingly looked at Lan Xue Ruo, nowadays, only in this daughter’s body, he can find the kind of warmth he has as a father, “Already not in the way. I was afraid that you would be overly worried again, so I didn’t dare to tell you. Yue’er, this person you brought, won’t you introduce him to me?”
Yun Che took a step forward and arched his hand, “Cangfeng Xuanfu’s Inner House disciple Yun Che, I pay my respects to Your Majesty.”
“Oh? You are Yun Che?” Cang Wan Gully’s face showed surprise, and then smiled, “Although I have been living in my bedchamber for a long time, I have also heard that the Cang Feng Xuanfu has produced an absolutely talented and astonishing young man, who at a narrow age has crossed the seventh level to defeat the Inner Mansion Disciples, and has also successfully managed to harness the Hegemony Giant Sword, which has been unable to be managed for several hundreds of years, this is truly astonishing.”
Yun Che faintly smiled and humbly said, “Your Majesty has flattered me. I’m just an ordinary Xuanfu disciple, and I don’t deserve such praise from Your Majesty.”
Yun Che’s words caused Lan Xueruo to stifle a giggle, “Senior Brother Yun, you are usually overbearing and arrogant wherever you go, why have you suddenly become so humble in front of my father today.”
If it was said that just now, when Cang Wan Yu heard Yun Che’s name, there was only a small amount of admiration for him in his heart, then the moment these words came out of Lan Xueruo’s mouth, Cang Wan Yu’s eyes changed instantly when he looked at Yun Che, he naturally knew his own daughter beyond measure, and it was the complete first time he had ever seen his own daughter so naturally and casually flirting with a teenage man.
As the Cang Feng Emperor, how poisonous his eyes were, when Lan Xue Ruo spoke, from the eyes she looked at Yun Che, Cang Wan Yu even saw something different ……
Cang Wan Gu’s expression remained unchanged as he kindly said, “Yue’er, this ‘Senior Brother Yun’ of yours, should be the one you used two years to find, right?”
Having completely revealed her heart and opened her heart last night, Lan Xueruo also no longer needed to avoid the matter of the Cang Feng Ranking Battle in front of Yun Che at all, as she frankly nodded her head and replied, “Yes. Father has already heard about how talented Master Yun is, and I believe that in another three years, Master Yun can reach a very high level, and will definitely have the possibility of charging into the top one hundred……. However, today, I brought Master Yun here, and I didn’t just introduce him to Father to get to know him, but in fact, not only is Master Yun’s Xuan Force talent very high, but he also knows medical techniques, and often calls himself a Divine Doctor it.”
“Oh?” Cang Wan Gully’s face once again gained a few more points of interest, “You also know medical arts? Could it be that you are preparing to treat me?”
“I will do my best to try.” Yun Che replied in a slightly conservative manner……. He had been observing Cang Wan Yu’s face from the moment he entered the door, and gradually began to have a not-so-good premonition.
“Hehe, good.”
Even Gu Qiuhong was at his wits’ end, and it was unlikely that there was anyone else in the Cangfeng Empire who could heal him anymore, let alone a teenager who was only seventeen years old. However, Cang Wan Yu did not refuse, and said gently, “It is rare that you have this heart, and you are the person Yue’er brought, so I naturally have no reason to refuse. Only, it is necessary for me to inform you first, according to what Master Gu said, what I have on me is not a disease, but a permanent damage to the life vein caused by years of hard work, so if you don’t know how to do it, you don’t have to force yourself.” R1058
