Chapter 372 Life 7 Rare from Ancient Times
Zhou Chang was bored but had nowhere to go, so he could only wait.
After a while, a doctor dressed as an imperial physician came out accompanied by Jiang Rui.
Everyone immediately gathered around.
The doctor just shook his head when he saw everyone.
"Sir Xu, you are now the head of the Imperial Hospital. If there is no solution, do you want me to go to the Qin family?" Jiang Meng asked anxiously.
Xu Wei?
Before Zhou Chang could react, Prince Yi's consciousness had already emerged.
The imperial physician that Jiang Meng asked was none other than Xu Wei, the imperial physician who delayed the treatment and killed Prince Yi's mother, Concubine Lan. He actually succeeded Qin Shou as the head of the Imperial Hospital.
I am really afraid of what will happen.
Xu Wei had a fair and round face, which was different from the thin face in Prince Yi's memory.
It is said that when Zhou Chang was Shen Rui, he had asked this man to treat his throat, but at that time he was separated from Shen Rui by a curtain and his true face was never seen.
Seeing him now, it is probably because Xu Wei has grown older and gained weight. He is already in his forties, but in order to look younger, he does not grow a beard, so he looks like a eunuch.
The skinny monkey must have recognized him at first sight, and he gritted his teeth and whispered, "Your Highness, Xu Wei used to look like a steamed bun, but now he looks more and more like a bun."
Zhou Chang couldn't laugh, as he was filled with hatred from Prince Yi.
The master and servant could not do anything now and could only watch from afar.
Over there, Peng Pai, who was a head taller than Jiang Meng, stood on the other side of Jiang Rui and whispered, "The Qin family had moved out of Jindu a long time ago, and no one knows where they are now. Otherwise, maybe we can ask the head of the front yard to come and give it a try..."
Wu'an Marquis Jiang Rui had a heavy face, but shook his head: "Alas, Qin Shou's medical skills are not as good as Lord Xu's, so he is useless."
Peng Pai reminded again in a low voice: "The son-in-law is talking about the old man of the Qin family. He still has a family tradition."
"Oh..." Wu'an Marquis Jiang Rui raised his head and thought about it seriously, but finally denied it and sighed, "Alas, it's probably useless."
Jiang Mengsi also gave up hope. He stepped forward to support his father and wanted to help him sit aside.
Jiang Rui is three years older than his wife, Princess Pingning. He is already 72 years old. He has been worried about his wife's illness for days and is physically exhausted.
Jiang Rui waved his hands and bowed to everyone: "I'm sorry, all the guests here today are honored guests, but unfortunately the princess is not feeling well and cannot come out to meet the guests."
Everyone came to celebrate the birthday, and said, "Don't worry, my lord. We are here to celebrate the old princess' birthday today. The old princess will surely be able to turn danger into safety and recover from her health."
Jiang Rui couldn't say any more. Before returning to the inner room, he told Jiang Meng, "Take good care of the distinguished guests and send them back. But remember not to leave and come back anytime."
"Yes, father." Jiang Meng understood what Jiang Rui meant and could not hide his grief.
Everyone watched Jiang Rui's back disappear behind the door curtain. Some people said a few polite words and planned to leave, while others offered some suggestions.
Xian Wang Fengzheng's big head stood out in the crowd. He patted Peng Pai's shoulder and comforted him: "Alas, Minister Peng, it is rare for a person to live to seventy. The old princess is also very old."
Peng Pai and the others around him echoed: "Yes, the old princess is indeed very old."
Gu Yan, the Duke of Xu, also had a solemn expression on his face: "It would be great if we could invite Master Xuan Yang. It was thanks to him that I was able to save my arm. Although it is useless, it is at least saved. It's a pity..."
"Are you talking about the suave senior named Xuan who was famous in Dalin?" The Minister of Rites Shen Si appeared out of nowhere.
Gu Yan nodded: "Thirty years ago, I'm afraid no one knew his real surname."
Shen Si nodded and said, "That's right. Since he became a monk, he rarely uses the name 'Xuan Yang'."
Jiang Meng was busy seeing off the guests when he suddenly heard the word "Xuan Yang". He turned around and asked Gu Yan, "Duke, are you talking about the Xuan Yang Master who is nearly 90 years old?"
"It's him. Mr. Jiang actually knows about it too?" Duke Gu Yan of Xu probably felt that Jiang Meng was too young and shouldn't have heard of it.
Jiang Meng flashed over and said, "How could I not have heard of him? I have visited many famous doctors to treat my mother's illness. Unfortunately, his whereabouts are erratic and he cannot be easily invited. I heard that he has miraculous healing powers and can even bring the dead back to life. Since the Duke has such a great honor, can I..."
"If the invitation is possible, I would have agreed when the Marquis was here just now. Do you, a junior, need to ask for it?" Before Jiang Meng could finish his words, Duke Xi raised his hand to stop him.
"My Lord..." Jiang Meng had more to say.
Gu Yan, Duke of Xu, was in great difficulty. "I also had a chance back then. He and your father and mother might have even better chances... Unfortunately, I heard that his temper has become more and more strange in recent years, and his whereabouts have become more and more erratic. When the epidemic broke out last year, I heard that he was at Chaotian Temple in the east of the city, but then he disappeared. How can I find him at this time of year?"
A man who was nearly 70 years old and looked very similar to Jiang Rui shook his head and said, "No, this is not consistent with what I know. Someone seemed to have seen him at the Taoist temple outside the city last month. It seems that he has not traveled far yet."
"Uncle, are you sure?" Jiang Meng seemed to see hope, "Why didn't I hear you mention it before?"
Jiang Meng's uncle is General Jiang Feng, the younger brother of Wu'an Marquis Jiang Rui. He is three years younger than Jiang Rui and is 69 years old this year. He is the third general in the "one family, two marquises and three generals".
Compared with his two brothers, Jiang Feng was very mediocre and inconspicuous. He was only given the title of general when he retired, which was not as good as Jiang Meng.
His granddaughter married Peng Liang, the son of Minister of War Peng Pai, also known as Little Jiang.
Today, all the people from the Jiang residence are here.
Zhou Chang watched with his arms folded, and suddenly remembered that the cousin of the Minister of War Peng Pai who was killed by Ma Feihu was Jiang Feng’s illegitimate daughter.
Peng Liang also married Jiang Feng's granddaughter. This family is really lively.
I couldn't help but take another look at the Peng faction.
The Peng faction always either follows Jiang Meng or follows King Xian, and is very low-key.
Jiang Feng sighed: "Alas, what's the point of saying it? It's not like my brother didn't ask him for help when he got the chance a few years ago, but it's all in vain."
There were also several witnesses nearby: "Yes, yes, Master Xuan Yang is in the Taoist temple, but we can't invite him. I heard that he swore to only treat the poor."
"I heard that he was handsome and talented in writing when he was young."
"How does it compare to the current top scholar, the one known as 'Flawless Master'?"
"How should I know? I haven't seen it."
"I'm afraid Master Wuxia can't compare to him."
"You also know that you were not born yet when he became famous?"
……
Zhou Chang was standing on the periphery, at a distance. When he heard the word "Xuan Yang", he seemed to have an impression of it from somewhere.
