Chapter 148

Gu Yantao and Yongxihou Hu Zehan have been grudges for a long time.

When they were studying in the Imperial Academy, Marquis Yongxi looked down upon the Gu family, who had obtained the title of Duke of the Kingdom with just one dose of medicine, because he was from a distinguished family.

Marquis Yongxi lost his father when he was young and was raised by his mother.

Therefore, Marquis Yongxi scolded Gu Yantao as a low-born person who was born in the alleys, and Gu Yantao scolded Marquis Yongxi as an ignorant coward who was raised under a woman, and both of them became enemies.

After that, the two of them gained fame and became officials in the same court.

But the late emperor saw that Marquis Yongxi's father had served as an imperial guard and had been loyal for decades, leaving only Marquis Yongxi alone, so he promoted him everywhere.

Marquis Yongxi also strived for success and gradually rose to prominence.

As for Gu Yantao, because Gu Shifei refused to help him, he kept making jokes in the Ministry of Punishment and was angry with Marquis Yongxi.

This added another layer of resentment.

When the late emperor came to the throne, Gu Yantao, a small fifth-rank doctor in the Ministry of Justice, was awarded the title of Bachelor of Dongge. He was the same as Marquis Yongxi and was a close minister of the emperor. The new emperor relied on Gu Yantao in everything and took the initiative for Gu Yantao in everything.

Later, he also entered the cabinet.

Marquis Yongxi was filled with hatred and jealousy, and became even more displeased with Gu Yantao.

A few days ago, the two of them got into a fight over the errands of the governor of Shuntian Prefecture. They quarreled in front of the emperor and the civil and military officials until they became red-faced.

In the end, Gu Yantao won, and his men successfully entered Shuntian Mansion and became governors.

Marquis Yongxi lost face greatly.

Wei Ge, the leader of the cabinet, died of old age in Annan Kingdom, and the one who will soon be added to the cabinet is most likely Marquis Yongxi.

Gu Yantao and him had another fight.

When I heard that Marquis Yongxi was ill, the person who felt most relieved was Gu Yantao.

As long as Marquis Yongxi cannot afford to fall ill, all old and new grudges can be avenged.

Gu Yantao hoped that Marquis Yongxi would not recover.

Now, he really can't get better.

Doctor Gao's medicine has no effect after taking it; the Hu family is not willing to hire people from Tai Hospital; I heard that they have hired a miracle doctor from Jiangnan now.

In the capital, I heard that Marquis Yongxi was seriously ill, and I don't know who made a bet that the seventh lady of the Gu family could not cure this disease.

Then word spread, and someone actually set up a bet based on it.

The dandy boys in Beijing are really thinking of all the things they can do.

After hearing this, Gu Yantao came to warn Gu Jinzhi: If she dares to take action, Marquis Yongxi will take her to the big house to raise her.

Nowadays, there is no separation of families, and the old man does not care about things. Although they do not live together, the big house has the final say in everything in the family. Gu Yantao still has a way to make the people in the third house obey.

After returning from the third room, Gu Yantao pursed his lips and smiled with satisfaction.

He was very proud, and now he was just waiting to see Yong Xihou's jokes.

——*——*——

Zhang Yuan, a famous doctor in Suzhou, inherited his uncle's ambition and went to Beijing to study at the imperial hospital, intending to become an imperial doctor and contribute to the imperial court.

Because the news about Qin Weisi spread all over the world and also to the south of the Yangtze River, Imperial Physician Zhang was heartbroken and said: The future of the Taiyuan Hospital is gloomy. He was heartbroken and asked Zhang's children to come out to benefit the people of the world and relieve the emperor's worries.

Zhang Yuan then gave up the quiet and superior life in Suzhou and took his wife and children to Beijing.

His uncle had many friendships in Beijing, and they were all powerful people who trusted his uncle's medical skills the most. And Zhang Yuan himself was well-known in Jiangnan, so it was not difficult to get into the Imperial Hospital.

He also visited the homes of powerful people one by one.

Little did he know that he suddenly encountered the case of Yongxihou's dysentery.

Zhang Yuan was a little excited.

As soon as he arrives in Beijing, he can show his skills and gain fame. This is a great opportunity for him to show his face.

However, Marquis Yongxi's illness was treated by Dr. Gao first.

Zhang Yuan can only try his luck. When Dr. Zhang fails, he will take action again, and his reputation will be even more obvious by then.

Now that Doctor Gao has failed, Zhang Yuan feels that his reputation is a bit difficult to achieve.

Marquis Yongxi's disease was very frightening. His skin was as hot as a steamer, and his stools were as frightening as fish brains. He had to defecate dozens of times a day.

Pulse is weak but counting...

Zhang Yuan had seen this disease and remembered the record in the medicine book: Those with diarrhea, body heat and rapid pulse will die. And Yongxihou was tortured by the great doctor for more than half a month. He was as thin as firewood and was afraid that it would be difficult to cure.

Zhang Yuan is a miraculous doctor, not a god.

He was unwilling to take action against such a fatal disease.

When he first arrived in Beijing, it would be good for him to use a serious illness to gain a prominent position; but if he failed, he would lose the opportunity to gain a foothold.

How could he make a joke when his survival was concerned?

The old lady of the Hu family was calm and composed, and gave Marquis Yongxi the medicine of Divine Doctor Gao. After drinking the medicine for fifteen days and seeing no effect at all, she sent people to destroy Doctor Gao's medical clinic.

Such an old woman is very difficult to mess with.

Zhang Yuan made up his mind to quit, so he said to Mrs. Hu: "Old Madam, I am a late student who has little talent and little knowledge. I dare not take over rashly and diagnose the Marquis. The uncle of the late student always said that heaven and man correspond to each other, and the patient's symptoms are related to Feng Shui.

Luck has everything to do with it. When I first came to your place, I didn't personally explore the Feng Shui and luck, so I didn't dare to prescribe the right medicine..."

The old lady's face darkened.

Mrs. Houye covered her mouth and started to cry.

"...It is a doctor's bounden duty to save lives and heal the wounded." The old lady scolded Zhang Yuan in a deep voice, "If you encounter a difficult disease, you will give it up, but your family education? How could your uncle teach you such a thing that insults your ancestors?

Come?"

Zhang Yuan was so angry that he felt angry from the bottom of his heart.

In Jiangnan, everyone respected him as a miracle doctor.

No matter where you go, you are treated as a guest.

And Mrs. Hu actually scolded him as if he were a servant.

"Farewell!" Zhang Yuan also snorted coldly, threw up his sleeves and left.

This Marquis Yongxi is suffering from a dying syndrome. When Marquis Yongxi dies, their children will not be mature yet, and the Hu family will decline from the court sooner or later. Is Zhang Yuan still afraid that they will fail?

He is the best at observing words and emotions, and there is absolutely no reason to ruin his reputation for the sake of Marquis Yongxi.

When he was in Yanling Mansion, he made the only mistake in his life, but the Song family and the Gu family didn't mention it at all. Those are kind people.

Seeing Mrs. Hu destroy Doctor Gao's medicine shop, Zhang Yuan felt a little sad.

It’s not easy for doctors to eat a bowl of rice.

Such a powerful person doesn't pay attention to self-care, and when he gets sick and can't be cured, he smashes the doctor's medicine shop and ruins the doctor's century-old reputation. It's too mean!

Then why should he, Zhang Yuan, govern Yongxihou?

If Mrs. Hu had asked softly, Zhang Yuan might not have been able to refuse and would have given it a try.

Now, with Mrs. Hu's attitude, why should Zhang Yuan be so polite?

As soon as he turned around and left, Mrs. Hu was so angry that she pushed the kang table to the ground and became furious.

But Mrs. Hu only knows how to cry.

"Why are you crying?" Mrs. Hu scolded her daughter-in-law, "Master Hou has the blessing of his ancestors, so he will be fine. I think that Jiangnan miracle doctor is just a person who is seeking fame. How dare you be so unruly? In a family like ours, you can do nothing.

Let's go and wait for the Marquis to recover. This Zhang Yuan, he must not try to hang out in the capital!"

Mrs. Hu was very dissatisfied with Zhang Yuan's attitude.

In her entire life, the old lady hated someone being strong in front of her.

If others flatter her and are willing to humble themselves, she will be willing to support them and give them some benefits; but if they dare to make trouble for her, she will kill them until they dare to do anything to her.

Don't think that without the old Marquis, you dare to bully the orphans and widows of Yongxi Marquis Mansion.

The old lady has always taught Marquis Yongxi this way.

Therefore, Marquis Yongxi has never suffered a loss since he was a child, and children from meritorious noble families do not dare to underestimate Marquis Yongxi because he has no father.

"Go and call Li Bingzheng to come and ask him to call for a doctor!" The old lady suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, "I don't believe it. No one can cure Mr. Hou's disease! There is no doctor in Beijing, so go outside and ask for it!"

Mrs. Yongxihou listened, cried and said yes, went out and called the little maid, and asked the chief steward Li Bingzheng to come in, and asked Li Bingzheng to go and ask for the doctor.

"Where is Mr. Yu's wife? She was asked to invite Miss Gu, but why hasn't she come yet?" The old lady gradually calmed down and asked Madam Hou, "We usually promote her and let her man become an official. If not,

In our family, they are nothing! We raise troops for a thousand days and use them for a while, but when their efforts are needed, none of them are useful!"

"Ms. Jiang said that Miss Gu is ill..." Mrs. Yongxihou sobbed and whispered in reply to her mother-in-law's words.

The old lady just snorted coldly.

"Go and call Mr. Yu and his wife." The old lady said, "The Marquis has no biological brothers. Now it is his turn to help the Marquis."

Mrs. Yongxi Hou said this.

Hu Zeyu and Mrs. Hu are now afraid that the house over there will call them.

Marquis Yongxi has been ill for more than twenty days. Mrs. Hu has a stubborn and peculiar personality. She no longer trusts the Imperial Hospital and looks for a doctor from among the people.

When someone failed to cure the disease with just one dose of medicine, they smashed up the doctor's medicine shop and injured the doctor, which aroused public outrage.

Among those doctors among the people, who is not willing to go to the Hu family again if they don’t have strong skills?

People also say that people who are trying to make a living don't have to end up like Dr. Gao just for the Hu family's small medical expenses.

Just as I was thinking about it, the boy from the mansion over there came and said that the old lady was inviting Hu Zeyu and Mrs. Hu.

Mrs. Hu's expression changed again and again.

Hu Zeyu didn't look good either.

Sure enough, he was afraid of something.

Hu Jie felt very uncomfortable and said to her parents: "We are not servants in their house, so why should we come and leave as soon as they are called?"

Hu Zeyu sighed.

Mrs. Hu also pursed her lips and remained silent.

They were originally side branches, brothers who came out of the third service and had no family business. They only had some money and status thanks to the help of the Marquis Mansion over there. The several times Hu Ze elected officials were all contributed by Marquis Yongxi.

This kindness must be repaid.

The couple ignored their daughter, changed their clothes and went out to the Marquis' Mansion over there.

The old lady was in the inner room and did not come out.

Mrs. Yongxihou's eyes were swollen, so she came out to talk to Hu Zeyu and his wife: "... Gao Shenyu's doctor has failed. The doctor from Jiangnan has left again. Now I can't find a reliable doctor. You are out there, helping me."

If you are looking for a good one, you must invite Miss Gu..."

Hu Zeyu and Mrs. Hu agreed.

"The imperial doctor from the Imperial Hospital is also looking for a good one." Mrs. Yongxi Hou said.

The old lady also relaxed.

At first I thought Dr. Gao might be able to cure it, but I didn’t want to hire those notorious people from the hospital.

Now, he is also urgently seeking medical treatment.

Hu Zeyu quickly said yes again.

After coming out of Yongxihou Mansion, Mrs. Hu frowned: "This matter is difficult to handle! The old lady has such an attitude, and the Song family is so strong. I'm afraid even inviting Miss Gu will be useless."

Hu Zeyu thought for a while.

He said: "I will go in person!"
