Hearing this, Jing Daguan raised his head in surprise.
The night wind blew, and the trees and flowers in the garden rustled, so that for a moment, he thought he had heard wrongly.
"You..." Jing Dabao hesitated and asked, "Are you asking the orthopedic doctor?"
As he asked, his eyes moved downward, falling little by little on Xu Jian's right leg.
The condition of his right leg cannot be seen due to the hem of his clothes.
We can't blame Jing Dafan for being surprised, but rather, from beginning to end, the Duke of Guo didn't show much willingness to treat his injuries.
Last year, he had a conversation with the Duke.
It is said that there is a orthopedic doctor in the Northeast. He has some reputation in the local area and is good at treating injuries. However, he lives in the deep mountains and forests all year round and is rarely born. If you want to find him, you may have to spend half a month in the mountains and woods.
Yes, maybe I will have to pay another visit to the thatched cottage in the end.
A person with a big temper should be pretty capable. Otherwise, why don't we send someone over to ask about the situation?
If you really can't afford it, you can get some tiger bones to grind them into powder or brew them into wine. It's better than nothing.
What did the Duke of Guo say at that time?
"There are so many things to do, so don't worry about unnecessary things."
"You lack tiger bones? It's easier than finding a doctor. How many can I get for you?"
"It's not a big deal if my legs can walk."
Having said that, how could Jing Daguo force him?
Privately, he, Shen Chen, and Xuan Su discussed whether it was possible that he had seen so many doctors since he was injured, but each one was at a loss and worried about coming and leaving, so that the Duke of Guo also lost confidence?
Otherwise, a good young man would want to try it if there is even the slightest possibility.
You have to endure hardships, and it is not unusual to experience a lot of pain if you want to fully recover from such a serious injury.
Others may not be able to endure the hardship, but the Duke is not one of them.
People who have practiced martial arts since childhood and have developed good skills have suffered from everything, but the one that has suffered the most is suffering.
Retreat in distress?
I'm afraid it's not the physical pain and difficulties that can make the Duke retire, but other difficulties, right?
There was absolutely no chance of a cure, so I simply stopped thinking about it.
Muttering, Jing Damun, Shen Chen, and Xuan Su all reached a consensus that they can endure hardship, but not in vain.
After understanding this, he never mentioned asking a doctor again.
Why bother?
Not only was it useless, it also poked holes in the heart of their prince.
Therefore, when he suddenly heard Xu Jian asking, Jing Dafan suddenly thought that his ears were not working properly.
Xu Jian didn't seem to notice Jing Dabao's changing state of mind. Seeing that he didn't hear clearly, he asked again.
Jing Daguan now knew that he had heard correctly, and said hurriedly: "I remember that the doctor's surname was Yue. Although he didn't have much reputation in Gyeonggi, he was quite famous in the Northeast. I heard it mentioned by a Northeastern businessman who had done business.
.
He is said to be in his fifties, his hair and beard are all white, but his body is very strong. He can walk on the mountain trail for a long time without even breathing.
He knows some general medical skills, but is best at muscle and bone injuries. He prepares the medicine for injuries by himself, but I don’t know what he mixed it in. It will be effective after applying it for a while."
After Xu Jian listened carefully, he lowered his eyes and thought seriously for a while, then asked Jing Dafan: "If someone looks for him, how long will it take to find him?"
"It depends on luck," Jing Daduan said very matter-of-factly. "He happens to be going down the mountain to practice medicine and someone encounters him. If he gets close to him, he can say a few words. If he doesn't go out, or he doesn't know which mountain col to wander around,
, there has been no news for ten days and a half.”
Xu Jian narrowed her eyes: "Then there's no need to look for him."
"Ah?" Jing Dafan opened his mouth.
What's happening?
Their father finally wanted to look for a doctor, but why did he stop looking for him after asking a few questions?
"You..." Jing Daguan considered it carefully and said tentatively, "Are you really not going to let Dr. Yue try it?
It's okay to just look at the situation. If he's not sure, he won't waste any effort. It's just to provide some travel expenses, and we don't lack that little money.
If he has the confidence to cure it, then you..."
That's it, Jing Daduan didn't "come out" for a while.
I really don’t know what to say to persuade Xu Jian.
Fortunately, Xu Jian didn't rush him, and didn't seem to want to interrupt, so he just let Jing Daduo think slowly.
After thinking like this for a long time, Jing Dadan suddenly had an idea: "The princess has been worried about your leg injury. You walked up the stairs earlier, which made the princess unhappy. Now you can't go to the second floor of Taohe Restaurant, but
Going up and down every day, don’t you still have to go back and forth on the trail in front of the Jinluan Hall once a day?
Not to mention winter, the weird weather a while ago forced the princess to bring out the stove for you to take with you.
If we can hire a good doctor, not only he will cure everything, but he will be free from illness and pain in the future, even if he can only treat the symptoms, it will make the cold and rainy weather less uncomfortable, and the princess will be less worried."
As he spoke, Jing Dafan saw that Xu Jian's pursed lips moved slightly and the corners of her lips raised a little.
If you can laugh, you must have listened to it to some extent, right?
Jing Dafan was about to hold the banner of "Princess Princess" and continue talking when he saw Xu Jian turned his head.
Xu Jian just looked at the person and asked with a faint smile: "I only said I wouldn't look for him anymore, I didn't say I wouldn't look at him anymore."
Jing Daduan knew Xu Jian well. After hearing this, he thought for a while and said, "You mean, let others find it? Who is it? Such a warm-hearted person."
"He is indeed warm-hearted," Xu Jian laughed again, but soon the smile disappeared, leaving only calmness and indifference, and explained, "Find some people to spread the news about Dr. Yue. Don't come forward yourself.
You have to be subtle and don't let anyone get the wrong idea. Don't rush, just spread it over a few days and spread it slowly."
Jing Dawan nodded in agreement.
After Jing Dafan left, Xu Jian raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows, and then slowly moved his right leg.
Old wounds are still there, and actions cannot be completely unaffected.
He also knew that he could not see anything on ordinary days, but if he walked in a hurry, even if he tried his best to control his body, he would limp a little bit.
When he really needed to exert his strength, he was not without the strength to fight. He could raise his leg to kick someone over, but he could hold on with just one breath, but the pain would later make him wish he could chop his leg off.
It is precisely because of this that Xu Jian would not even bother to do it if he didn't do it.
Save some energy and get some rest.
Compared with before, these two legs are now very good, and Xu Jian is not dissatisfied at all.
But, someone was staring at him.
When leaving the Jinluan Palace that day, Prince Jin's words were probably not just casual remarks.
Prince Jin was very concerned about whether his legs were good or bad.
In this case, instead of waiting for the other party to send the doctor who has no idea of his origin, it is better for Prince Jin to make some efforts to find Doctor Yue.
Let King Jin know that his injury cannot be cured, which will probably stop a lot of unnecessary thoughts.
After all, he is the prince and the elder brother of the Holy Emperor. He can accept the favor that should be accepted, and then he can justifiably refuse the risks that should be rejected.
The moon sets and the sun rises.
Jing Daguan had his own way of doing things, but in the past three or five days, rumors about Dr. Yue began to appear in several pharmacies in the capital. Many stories about his experience in saving people were spread to teahouses and restaurants. Through Dr. Tea’s
Polish it up and spread it.
Whether it's true or not, it doesn't matter at this point. I just know that there is such a capable person in the Northeast.
After spreading the news for a few days, it naturally reached Lin Yunyan's ears.
In Bao'an Garden, Lin Yunyan was drinking tea while listening to Grandma Wang saying that it was busy outside.
Aunt Wang was good at telling stories, and relayed the polished content of the tea doctors, which made Wanyue speechless.
"Princess," Wan Yue was very excited, "is there really such a great doctor? Then, can he, can he cure the Duke of Guo's leg?"
Aunt Wang just told a story casually, but she didn't expect that it would involve the Duke of Guo, and she was a little confused for a moment.
She quietly looked at Lin Yunyan's expression. There was no doubt on the princess's face, nor was she very excited...
Lin Yunyan put down the tea cup, glanced at the oil lamp on the table.
At this moment, the lights were naturally not lit.
It's just that I burned a note yesterday.
The note was sent by Xu Jian to Chen Gui, and it was about Dr. Yue. Lin Yunyan burned it after reading it, and told Chen Gui a few more words.
"Who knows?" Lin Yunyan laughed, "I really hope he has such good skills."
At the same time, in the busiest teahouse on West Street, Dr. Tea had just finished the first part of his speech and received bursts of applause.
He hurriedly handed over his hands to thank him, and saw a middle-aged man sitting at the next table.
He wears brand new clothes and wears strings of sandalwood beads on his hands. He is a businessman and has some literary talent.
Dr. Tea recognized him at a glance.
That was Chen Gui, the owner of Shenghui Pavilion, who was related to Chengyi Bofu. Last year, when there was a poetry meeting in the teahouse, Chen Dongjia showed up.
Not only Dr. Tea recognized him, but also the guests sitting on the left and right recognized him and greeted Chen Gui enthusiastically.
Chen Gui cupped his fists and said "You're welcome, you're welcome" several times.
Liao Zi sat with Chen Gui and asked in a low voice: "My boss, is Dr. Yue really that powerful?"
Chen Guichong waved his hand to Liao Zi: "It's just a story. If you don't recognize Dr. Yue, why are you tearing him down?"
Liao Zi apologized and smiled.
The conversation was not loud, but anyone sitting close could hear it. He said hurriedly: "Hey, everyone in the capital praises him for his greatness. It can't be in vain, right?"
"I've never seen him take action. I just heard about it. It's fun to hear whether it's true or not."
"Yes, just listen to the fun," Chen Gui laughed, "If you really want to talk about their abilities, I think the doctors at Tai Hospital are the best."
Some people agree, and of course there are people who oppose it.
"If there is a specialty in the art, Dr. Yue will treat bone injuries."
"If you haven't had a face-to-face competition, how can you know that you can't compare to the imperial doctor?"
"Imperial doctors treat noble people every day. In some cases, they may not be as knowledgeable as country doctors."
Chen Gui listened to their discussion and spoke again after a while: "I don't believe there are many doctors with severe muscle and bone injuries in this world. They can't even see the injuries of Duke Fu. They are all half a pound to eight ounces."
When he mentioned Duke Fu, most of the people were silent for a while.
There were only a few people who were fighting fiercely and asked hurriedly: "Duke Fu, did you want Mr. Yue to see his injuries?"
"That's not true," Chen Gui sighed, "I saw so many imperial doctors, and some famous doctors among the people. At that time, lists were posted everywhere for famous doctors. Anyone who was confident could come and try. As many people came as they left again.
How many people were killed? No one could do anything, that Doctor Yue didn't even come."
Seeing that the other guests were still arguing, Chen Gui stood up and said, "I also hope there will be a great doctor.
In the past, if you put it on others, you would just hear the noise and watch the doctor come and go, which was a lot of fun.
But things are different now. The Duke wants to marry our princess, who is a member of his own family. I really want him to be free from illness and pain.
I came to listen to Dr. Tea telling a story, but I also knew it was just a story.
Everyone, if Dr. Yue is really that capable and can cure the Duke's injury, I, Chen Gui, will hold a flowing banquet here on West Street for ten days and a half."
After saying this, Chen Gui held hands with Dr. Tea again: "Can you tell a different story next time? It's a bit sad to hear this excitement."
Dr. Tea was busy returning the gift.
After Chen Gui finished speaking, he walked out of the teahouse.
Liao Zi hurriedly followed and asked in a low voice: "Do you really want to hold a flowing banquet? Ten days and a half month?"
"What?" Chen Gui said, "If it can be cured, isn't it worth showing off? I'll bring out all the big fish, meat, wine and food!"
In the teahouse, many people's throats rolled up, oh, it smells so good.
Chen Gui did not look back, and went back to Lao Shi Alley after singing the play with Liao Zi.
The next day, Liao Zi came to look for him again and said with a smile: "My boss, not only on West Street, but everywhere. It's even more lively than the past few days."
Chen Gui was not surprised by this.
I have to say that the princess’s idea is right.
No matter how lively the story is, it's just a story. It starts in a drug store and ends with a few words in a teahouse.
If you don’t want it to come to an end, then continue to add more bricks and mortar. The people in the story are no longer Doctor Yue, whose appearance no one knows in the Northeast Mountains, but Duke Fuguo and Uncle Chengyi, who are known to everyone in the capital.
It became vivid.
Especially, there are those ten days and a half months of flowing water in front of me.
Regardless of whether you can eat it or not, you have to overcome your addiction.
Who can invite Dr. Yue?
Will Duke Fuguo and Prince Chengyi find a way to find the doctor?
Can Dr. Yue really cure the Duke of Guo's injury?
When will we be able to eat that feast of fish and meat?!
As soon as the news left the teahouse, it spread to alleys and alleys, spreading really fast.
Chen Gui completed the task assigned to him by the princess and took a sip of tea with great satisfaction.
In less than two days, the common people will be able to compile the entire menu for the flowing banquet, right? What about soft-shell turtle with cherry meat, grilled chicken and bird's nest? If you make it fragrant enough, the more it will be spread.
This result...
The result was evident the next day when Xu Jian walked slowly out after going to court.
Bo An Yi, who had a fierce face, was slightly excited: "It is said that there are things in the sky and on the earth, why don't you go find them and give them a try?"
Xu Jian laughed: "How come even uncle has heard about it?"
"Don't take it seriously," An Yibo said, "Listen to me and look for it and give it a try."
Xu Jian responded casually, but his attention was actually focused not far behind him.
Prince Jin was a few steps behind them. He was slowly walking down the steps, and then he called out: "Master Fuguo, Uncle An Yi."
The two of them stopped when they heard the sound.
King Jin approached and asked, "Are you talking about the doctor with a broken bone?"
An Yibo replied: "Yes, I heard some rumors."
King Jin's eyes fell on Xu Jian, and he said kindly and insistently: "I said before that if you have a good doctor, you still have to give it a try. Let's do this. I will send someone to go to the northeast and invite Dr. Yue back as soon as possible."
