NOVPUBAt this moment, Li Nuo finally understood the feelings of those Imperial Physicians who had been forced by King Chun to treat him.
It's no wonder that when the Medical School treats people, especially when they need to use True Qi, the price is certainly not low.
Currently, within the Zhang Mansion, Old Mrs. Zhang was moving her body and said with a smile, "The skills of the little divine doctor are truly profound, not much different from those Imperial Physicians..."
The Minister of Revenue, feeling his no longer aching old back, sighed lightly.
The Old Lady asked, "Why are you sighing, my son?"
The Minister of Revenue said, "Brother Li and the Sixth Princess probably came for King Sheng, but they did not mention it. Unfortunately, among the four regent princes selected by His Majesty, only King Sheng is the most unsuitable for the throne. The other three are just the best among a group of dwarfs..."
The Old Lady said, "Matters of the state should not be discussed by someone like me, but since His Majesty has entrusted you with such an important position, you should be responsible for the world, for the people, and should not let personal grievances affect important decisions of the realm..."
The Minister of Revenue said, "Mother's teachings are correct, but you should not always mention womenfolk. What's wrong with womenfolk? The Holy Emperor was a woman, her achievements surpassed many kings. Although the Sixth Princess is a woman, everything she does surpasses all the princes------ hmm?"
As he spoke, his voice slowed down and became lower.
Li Nuo and the Sixth Princess had just left, the Minister of Revenue looked towards the direction of the gate and suddenly fell into deep thought.
In the carriage.
Zhao Zhiyi looked at the pale-faced Li Nuo leaning against the carriage wall and couldn't help but feel heartache, she softly said, "Thank you for your hard work..."
Li Nuo smiled and said, "It's not that hard."
The position of the Minister of Revenue of Zhao Country is far above that of Daxia, he must strive for it at all costs.
After returning to the Princess Mansion, Li Nuo's physical strength recovered a bit. Instead of resting, he found Doctor Sun, intending to visit the other two Chief Imperial Doctors with him.
Zhao Zhiyi grabbed his wrist and said, "Why don't you rest at home today and visit them tomorrow?"
Li Nuo shook his head and said, "Tomorrow has its own matters to deal with, don't worry, I'm fine."
Watching him leave with Doctor Sun, Zhao Zhiyi returned to the small yard by herself.
Song Yiren was practicing martial arts. Zhao Zhiyi sat at the stone table and suddenly asked, "Miss Song, how did you meet Lord Li?"
Speaking of this matter, Song Yiren sheathed her sword and sat opposite her with a slight tilt of her chin, saying, "We knew each other since we were born, we even made a marriage pact when we were one year old..."
"Ah, then why did your sister marry him?"
"..."
Mentioning this matter, Song Yiren felt a surge of grievance and anger, she gritted her teeth and said, "It's a long story..."
...
At the Huang Mansion.
A young man walked into the hall, not knowing how many times he had refilled tea for this young guest and his master.
There was a deep shock in his eyes.
This young man, younger than himself, could discuss the Medical Path with his master, who was in the Fourth Realm of the Medical School, for one whole two-hour period. His master even occasionally sought his advice.
Could this be an elder of the Medical School skilled in the art of retaining youth?
A quarter of an hour later, the young man left with Master Uncle Sun.
When he walked into the hall to clean up the teaware, he saw his master standing up and sitting down continuously, scratching his head, with an extremely conflicted expression on his face.
The next moment, he saw his master running out, soon calling out loudly from beyond the door.
"Doctor Li, please wait!"
...
At King Sheng Mansion.
"Two days ago, he visited the house of the Chief Imperial Doctor. Yesterday, the Chief Imperial Doctor visited the Princess Mansion. Early this morning, he and the Sixth Princess went to the Minister of Revenue's Mansion. Then, he went to see the two Chief Imperial Doctors, staying at their residences for a long time..."
Listening to his subordinate's report, a smile appeared on King Sheng's face.
He too had tried to obtain the support of the three officials from the Imperial Hospital.
But as soon as his people made a request, they were immediately turned away.
Li Nuo could stay at their residences for so long and even made the Chief Imperial Doctor proactively seek him out. Coupled with his relationship with the Medical School, it's likely that he could secure the support of these three officials.
The Minister of Revenue was also a supporter he dreamt of acquiring.
It's said that he and Zhiyi are life-saving benefactors of the Minister of Revenue's mother.
The Minister of Revenue was famously filial, and such a great favor must be repaid.
Last time, he easily allocated funds for him, which already explained a lot.
By then, the likelihood of his support would be great.
Moreover, he had used one hundred thousand taels to bribe several officials, increasing his odds of winning further.
King Sheng breathed a long sigh of relief.
With such a sister, what more could a man ask for...
At this moment, another matter was reported by his subordinate.
The subordinates of King Shun, King An, and King Xiang had jointly impeached several of his officials, with conclusive evidence. The Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Justice had already taken up the case.
King Sheng furrowed his brows, this matter put him in a dilemma.
The Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Justice were now under his control.
If he saved them, he might be accused of covering up.
If he didn't save them, he would lose his own people. He had spent a lot of money to win them over, and they all held votes.
He looked at the person beside him and asked, "Mr. Lin, what do you think?"
The elegant man said, "In my opinion, Your Highness should handle them according to the law. This is a trap set by the other three princes for you. If you choose to cover up, they will turn their focus on you. We must not let their scheme succeed..."
King Sheng furrowed his brows and said, "The Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Justice are both in my hands. I can delay the matter. If I handle them, won't I disappoint the officials who support me?"
He could understand the situation here.
Covering up is not necessarily a bad thing; at most, there would be some criticism. Both departments are in his control. What can they do to him? 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘱𝘶𝑏.𝘤𝘰𝑚
If he dealt with his own people, not only would he lose silver taels and votes in vain, but what would those neutral officials think of him? Who would be willing to join someone like that?
At this moment, the elegant man added, "Your Highness, rest assured, those officials are already on the same boat with you, they won't change their minds no matter what. This move by Your Highness will crush the previous rumors about you among the people, completely winning the hearts of the people. He who wins the people's hearts wins the world. This can also gain the support of those pure Imperial Censors, isn't it a small sacrifice for a greater gain..."
On this matter, King Sheng felt Mr. Lin was incorrect.
Even if he dealt with those people, the Imperial Censors might not necessarily support him.
He opened his mouth to refute, but looking at Mr. Lin's face, a moment of confusion passed through his heart, and he increasingly felt what he said made sense. He nodded dazedly and said, "Mr. Lin is right..."
