Doctor Yue pressed the pressure on Xu Jian for a long time until he was sweating profusely.
When he was packing the medicine box, Eunuch Cao asked: "How long will it take for Eunuch Guo to recover?"
Upon hearing this, Doctor Yue did not answer immediately. Instead, he glanced at Xu Jian first.
Xu Jian lowered his eyes and didn't give much reaction.
"Well," Dr. Yue thought in his mind, and the answer was very ambiguous, "it depends on what the Duke himself thinks."
Eunuch Cao asked: "How do you say it?"
Doctor Yue said: "If the Duke cooperates with the doctor and acts as an obedient injured patient, it would be best to rest for a few months until the spring flowers bloom and the earth's atmosphere warms up, then this hurdle can be considered over.
If the Duke continues to talk to himself and turns a deaf ear to the doctor's words, then he will bite the bullet and go to court tomorrow, and the doctor cannot tie him up."
After the words fell, Lin Yunyan, who was adjusting her clothes with Xu Jian, pursed her lower lip tightly.
This rhetoric was neither yin nor yang, and there was room for advancement and retreat, which almost made her laugh out loud.
Fortunately, her back was turned to Eunuch Cao.
Xu Jian chuckled lightly and said in a helpless tone: "I still listened to Dr. Yue's words."
Doctor Yue will not comment further on this.
After saluting Eunuch Cao, he picked up the medicine box and left.
Xu Jian then looked at Eunuch Cao and sighed: "Maybe I need to rest a little longer.
I have to say that Dr. Yue is really good at diagnosing injuries. Others may not be able to tell the difference, but my own body knows it. It has indeed improved in the past few months.
Everything happened for a reason yesterday, so the results before were..."
Xu Jian paused, slightly choked with sobs. Lin Yunyan patted his arm gently, and the smile in her eyes disappeared. When he turned his head, Eunuch Cao saw the princess' worry and distress.
It made him feel sad too.
"My lord..." Mr. Cao was thinking about his words and wanted to express some relief, but was interrupted by Xu Jian.
"Eunuch Cao," Xu Jian took a deep breath, "I want to try to cure him again.
The Holy One has always known that I didn't have much hope for a cure for my injury. I had seen too many doctors when I just returned to Beijing from Yumen, and I was helpless, so I just accepted it. Later, I thought about just being an idler and getting by.
.
The Holy Emperor was worried and kept thinking of me. He asked me to stay in Shuntian Mansion for a while, and pointed out the princess to me. I thought that even if I could no longer go to the border, it would be good to go to the court to discuss affairs.
To be honest, Eunuch Cao, I was very happy during those days when I followed His Highness to observe government affairs at the Ministry of Rites, and I could feel some fun.
Maybe it was just chance. Prince Jin found Dr. Yue. He was so active and dedicated. I didn't want to let him down, so I tried to treat it. The result was much better than I expected.
When the doctor spoke conservatively, he always said that the recovery was only 70% to 80% of what it was before. But I thought to myself, I could bear the pain and endure the hardships, and I worked hard to recover. Maybe I could still guard the border for the Holy Father.
It's not that I'm rushing to go into battle, I just want one more chance and a little choice, so that I can live up to the expectations of the Holy Master and be worthy of my grandfather's years of training.
Unexpectedly, I encountered some setbacks, but I couldn't let go, so I just wanted to persist. Maybe with Dr. Yue's help, I could really do it.
I will write a letter later and ask Eunuch Cao to present it to the Holy One on my behalf."
Hearing these words, Eunuch Cao's heart was filled with ups and downs.
He has followed the Holy Master for so many years, and he has also watched Xu Jian grow up.
Not to mention old things, just in the past few years, I resigned from the Ministry of War in frustration, worked as a entertainer in the Jinluan Palace, and then was sent to Shuntian Mansion by the Holy Emperor...
Eunuch Cao saw all these changes along the way, and when he recalled them, how could he remain indifferent.
With his status, it was impossible for him to give Xu Jian a guarantee. Eunuch Cao said, "The Za family will definitely explain your wishes to the Lord in front of the Holy One."
Xu Jian thanked him and said, "I just feel a lot of regret for letting His Highness get scolded again."
Eunuch Cao just smiled and said nothing.
"Your Highness is an unforeseen disaster," Xu Jian said, "It's better to catch the sun than to catch it. I didn't expect Laba..."
Eunuch Cao waved his hands hurriedly: "What did the Zajia say to Mr. Guo in the middle of the night? What are you doing to take this matter? Don't mention this again."
"I understand your father-in-law's good intentions," Xu Jian said, "How long has it been since your Majesty felt at ease now that you have to listen to some thoughtful people telling the prince things?
The imperial censors scolded each other, which was more or less justified, but people with different intentions were not happy with His Highness.
His Highness was already a little worried about me following him, but this time it was even worse.
Eunuch Cao, I always feel that His Highness is hot and cold towards me. He is thoughtful and thinks a lot. It’s awkward but it shouldn’t be..."
Xu Jian said a lot, but he only hit the key points.
Eunuch Cao listened to his heartfelt words and had a bias in his heart, so he naturally followed Xu Jian's thoughts and pondered.
What's more, he has already convicted Feng's wife.
His Highness has such a provocative person around him. Can the relationship between him and Duke Fu be hot and cold at times?
Thinking of this, Eunuch Cao sighed: "The Za family also thinks that the manpower in the East Palace needs to be improved more in the future."
Lin Yunyan frowned and pretended to be puzzled: "What the father-in-law means is that there are dishonest people around His Highness? Where are the manpower and whose benefits are they receiving? It's so disrespectful to His Highness? No wonder the imperial concubine would rather thank guests behind closed doors than find anyone to fight.
Horse crane."
Eunuch Cao:......
As if she knew she shouldn't say this, Lin Yunyan bit her lower lip and said, "I'm just not feeling well and talking nonsense. I'm going to prepare the study room first."
Seeing Lin Yunyan stand up and leave, Eunuch Cao chuckled.
The princess has always been sensible and obedient. When she occasionally becomes strong, it is for the sake of the empress dowager and the auxiliary prince. She rarely shows such a tendency.
Thinking about it, firstly, it was because of the Duke's injury, and secondly, in his own house, the strings were not as tight as in the palace, so he said such "truthful words".
Of course, it was precisely because the princess was familiar with the harem that she guessed the masters of the harem. She suspected those who had interests in disputes with the prince.
But Eunuch Cao was skeptical about this.
Interests certainly involve interests, but not necessarily the harem.

There was a writing room in the second room opposite. Lin Yunyan had no intention of letting Xu Jian move over, so she only moved the four treasures over.
There were several props next to the couch, and they were placed one by one.
When Xu Miao came over, Xu Jian had just finished writing the note to be submitted. She didn't want to read it at first. She caught a glimpse of a few lines of words in the corner of her eye and felt something was wrong, so she asked Xu Jian.
When I held it in my hand and read it from beginning to end, my eyes were filled with tears.
She wanted to speak several times, swallowed it several times, and finally handed it to Eunuch Cao. She said, "My father-in-law has worked hard. I'm sorry for bothering you."
Eunuch Cao agreed.
Lin Yunyan sent him away and walked all the way outside the main courtyard before being persuaded.
Looking at Eunuch Cao's back from a distance, she took a deep breath.
Yes, they are taking advantage of Eunuch Cao.
Now that things have come to this, it’s no surprise that I took advantage of anyone. I feel a little bit guilty, but it’s more about persistence and perseverance.
I don’t want the Queen Mother to feel uneasy when she closes her eyes, I don’t want An Yibo’s family to end up being raped, I don’t want the Holy Emperor to be “rested” in Chengshou Palace, and I don’t want Eunuch Cao to be trapped in Chengshou Palace...
These exploits are necessary.
Furthermore, she and Xu Jian could investigate some personnel matters, but Eunuch Cao had the advantage of taking action.
The person behind the scenes is hiding very deep, and the clues in front of him are very detailed. The only one who can grasp it is the servant Feng.
Looking up Feng's wife from Xu Jian requires traveling thousands of miles, but from Eunuch Cao, the situation is different.
Before noon, Eunuch Cao returned to the imperial study.
The Holy Master looked at Xu Jian's book and was silent for a long time.
Eunuch Cao was not surprised by this. He had read it on the way back. The excerpt written by Fu Guo Gong was sincere and real. He was deeply touched when he thought of the princess's gaffe and Mrs. Xu's tears.
It's so serious, no wonder the Holy One is silent.
After a long time, the Holy Spirit said: "There is only half a month left before the seal is sealed before the year. He just needs to rest. Let's see him after the year to see how he is recovering. If he can really recover, let alone rest until the beginning of spring, just take a break or two."
Any year is fine.”
The court is short of people, and even more so, generals.
Xu Jian has experience and background. As long as he gets better, he will be able to gain a foothold in the army. He is also so young.
"Shao'er is really..." the saint sighed.
Eunuch Cao bent down and spoke to His Majesty: "I'm just thinking about something for no reason. How could Your Highness think that Eunuch Guo is pretending to be injured?"
The Holy One raised his eyebrows.
"Before yesterday, Mr. Guo's leg injury was indeed relieved. After all, after several months of treatment, how could it not have any effect?" Cao Gonggong said, "But judging from yesterday's situation, it is by no means 'already cured'.
The Duke of Guo tried his best to save His Highness. He was able to save him, but barely.
I had seen his legs in the paddock when I was young. I went there today and met the doctor who came to treat me, and I saw with my own eyes that they were bruised and bruised.
But His Highness said that the Duke of Guo was pretending to be injured, which was not speculation. He almost confirmed it. Where did His Highness get the evidence?
They say seeing is believing. Before the Duke came to the rescue yesterday, Your Highness did not see the Duke riding a horse and cutting a bear. How could he be so sure?"
"Speak directly if you have anything to say," the Holy Sage said.
"I just want to check the people around His Highness," Eunuch Cao lowered his eyes and said respectfully, "Your Highness and the Duke have some feelings, but they are not enemies..."
The Holy Master looked solemn and nodded slightly to Eunuch Cao.
East Palace.
Li Shao slept very restlessly.
He had a fever and had not regained his strength. After losing his temper in the morning, he fell asleep again in a daze.
Attendant Feng stood guard at the side, feeling very anxious.
He had to explain everything to his master, but he really didn't know how to explain it, so he put it off until now.
But he couldn't just drag it out like this. The person he was contacting couldn't wait that long...
While Li Shao was taking a rest, Feng's wife made up stories to cover up the situation, and barely managed to come up with some excuses.
That's it, he thought.
Now that he is in the East Palace, working beside His Highness, and the master is taking care of him, who else is going to give His Highness a break?
He does not need to report back to his master directly. No matter how angry the master is, he will not be face to face.
Just wait until the master's anger subsides.
After thinking about it this way, Chamberlain Feng gained some confidence. Seeing that Li Shao would not wake up in a short time, he quietly exited.
As soon as he left the main hall, he met a group of people, headed by Eunuch Cao.
Feng Nei's servant showed no expression on his face and quickly saluted.
Eunuch Cao smiled and said, "Has your highness' fever gone away?"
"It's still a little hot," said the waiter Feng, "Let's take a rest now."
"You come with the Za family." Eunuch Cao walked to the side. "The Za family has something to tell you."
Inexplicably, Chamberlain Feng's breath froze, and a chill crept up from behind.
Those who come are not good.
Where did he offend Eunuch Cao?
Feeling uneasy, Feng's wife quickly calmed down and followed Eunuch Cao to the side hall.
Without saying a word, Eunuch Cao raised his hand slightly, and two strong eunuchs held Feng's servant on the left and right.
"Eunuch Cao?" Feng Neishi asked in shock, "My dear, what did you do wrong?"
His cold gaze fell, and there was no smile in it. Eunuch Cao said word by word: "You can think about it, what did you do right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a piece of handkerchief blocked Feng's mouth.
Eunuch Cao snorted: "Don't disturb His Highness to take a rest, take him away."
Chamberlain Feng was completely panicked.
This posture is definitely not as simple as provoking Eunuch Cao. Could it be that he was exposed?
It shouldn’t be!
It's over now. If it falls into the hands of Eunuch Cao, what good outcome will it have?
No one in the palace knows that Eunuch Cao looks kind on the surface and leaves room for action, but once he takes action, he will lose half his life or not.
master……
Not only did he not have time to report the matter to his master, he was also arrested.
What happens to those who are exposed?
That monk, Dao Heng, is dead!
Feng Neishi was in a panic and was dragged and thrown into an empty yard.
The palace is too big, and there are many courtyards like this that have not been inhabited for many years. They have an air of bad luck and are very cold.
Waiter Feng was tied up and trembling all over. Someone took the veil away from his mouth.
"Should you explain yourself, or should the Zajia family slowly ask and investigate?" Mr. Cao said fairly, "The Zajia family doesn't like to do anything, so I advise you to choose something easier."
Feng Neishi said in a trembling voice: "Little one, I don't understand what you mean."
"You are very capable," Eunuch Cao said. "For the group of people in the East Palace, Eunuch Guo was chosen by the Za family. In the beginning, he was the one who served His Highness closely. You came from behind and won His Highness's trust. The Za family are very curious. What have you done?"
What, what did you say to make His Highness like you so much?"
Chamberlain Feng swallowed his saliva: "Younger, I just serve His Highness with all my heart..."
"Really?" Mr. Cao said impartially, "You are indeed dedicated and have given His Highness a lot of ideas. Are you the one who asked Your Highness to repair the late Queen's relics?"
Feng Neishi said: "Isn't it right for Your Highness to repair your Majesty's relics? At that time, Your Highness was distressed, and I took care of Your Highness's worries, so I had an idea, and then..."
"You have a good idea, no wonder His Highness trusts you." Eunuch Cao smiled.
"What's wrong with that kid?"
"Why are you so anxious?" Cao Gonggong said, "Your Highness insists that Duke Fuguo pretended to be injured, and it has nothing to do with you? I'm implying that Your Highness, the princess lingered at the gate of the city on purpose, wasn't it you? Do you really think that what you said has nothing to do with it?
To be listened to by others?”
Waiter Feng's eyes widened.
He knew he should deny it, but he also knew that denying it would be useless.
Eunuch Cao said again: "Feng Chang, from Yong'an, don't you need Zajia to read your experiences to you? You might as well think about it for yourself and see if there is anything you can dig out of it."
