Chapter 302 Childhood Sweethearts
Li Xuan nodded slightly and agreed to the matter.
Sissi was able to send Hui Hui, who was injured in the alley, to Dr. Fang for treatment. She must be at least a kind-hearted girl.
In addition, the relationship between Sissi and Dr. Fang was concealed from everyone. When he heard Sissi opening the door with joy and was extremely horrified when he saw Zhao Si and Hou San, Li Xuan already understood what Sissi had done that day. Who are you waiting for?
Li Xuan jumped from Princess Ankang's arms to the window, then fell down and disappeared.
"Axuan, where has he gone?"
Princess Yuanan on the side asked curiously.
"Axuan is a little depressed, so he went out to get some fresh air."
Princess Ankang smiled, and then looked out the window silently.
"Sister, let's wait and see."
Then, Princess Ankang said nothing more, but her eyes were full of complicated emotions when she looked at the bustling scene on Flower Street.
After Li Xuan left Hu Yulou, he went straight to Doctor Fang's hospital.
Anyway, he is just a cat. Even if he is confronted face to face, Doctor Fang should not be too wary.
Of course, this is just Li Xuan's own unilateral expectation.
After he explained his purpose, he hoped that Dr. Fang would believe him.
Li Xuan walked through the dark alley again with anxiety.
Arriving at the door of Dr. Fang's medical clinic, Li Xuan found that the door panel was tightly closed again.
It seems that Dr. Fang may have gone on a medical visit again.
But when Li Xuan came closer, he heard something moving in the medical center.
He climbed directly up the wall and headed towards the backyard of the medical center.
It didn't take long to find the source of the sound.
There is a low room in the backyard of the medical clinic, which seems to be the place where Dr. Fang lives on weekdays.
Inside the small room, the sound of conversation was heard at this time.
Thanks to Li Xuan's excellent hearing, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to hear the sound at the door.
Li Xuan leaned down by the window with ease. The window was broken and he didn't need to poke a hole to get it out. He could see what was going on inside just by tilting his head.
"The window is leaking like this, does it really matter?"
Li Xuan looked at the worn window paper, which was covered with small patches of repair marks.
But it seems that the windows have not been repaired in recent times.
Li Xuan looked inside through a gap. The person facing him was Doctor Fang, and opposite Doctor Fang sat a figure wearing a bamboo hat and robe.
Judging from the voice, this is an old man.
"Muyang, how long will you stay here?"
There was obvious anxiety in the old man's questioning.
Doctor Fang lowered his head and avoided the eyes of the old man opposite him.
"Master, please forgive me for being unfilial."
Li Xuan's eyes flashed, he didn't expect that this old man was actually Doctor Fang's master, and he also unexpectedly learned Doctor Fang's name.
"It turns out that his name is Fang Muyang, and he has a disciple, but I don't know who this old man is?"
As a result, as soon as Dr. Fang finished speaking, the old man slammed the table angrily.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
"You have now passed the examination of Taiyuan Hospital, why don't you report to the palace with me quickly?"
"For my sake, no one will mention what happened these days."
"Pack your things now and come with me right away!"
Seeing that Doctor Fang didn't respond, the old man stood up with a loud sound and was about to step forward to catch Doctor Fang.
Looking at this look, the old man seemed to be dragging Doctor Fang away even if he wanted to.
"Master, I can no longer be a doctor."
"sorry……"
Doctor Fang said, silently holding down the old man's arms to stop his movements.
The old man struggled to break free, but in the end he was unable to break free from his disciple.
"Why bother, why bother..."
The old man said sadly, his voice trembling.
"You kid, why do you never tell your master anything? Do you still think that I am your master?"
As the old man spoke, he began to hide his face and cry, feeling very sad.
"Master, now that the matter is over, I won't hide it from you anymore."
"Back then, I was terminally ill, and my mother took me everywhere to seek medical advice, but nothing could be done."
"In fact, many so-called famous doctors, seeing that we, mother and son, were so poor, impatiently asked us to go back and wait to die, so as not to disturb other patients."
"Later I found out that you were at a free clinic in the downtown area, so my mother took me to seek medical treatment from you."
"We couldn't even join the queue, so my mother took me in, knelt down in front of you, and cried, begging you to save me."
"I didn't understand much at the time. I just saw my mother crying sadly, so I started crying too."
"Master, you may not remember."
"The weather was very nice that day. The sun shone in from outside and painted a golden edge on your tall silhouette. It's so beautiful."
"You comforted me and my mother not to cry, and then put a gag on us."
"After that, I became the first patient at each of your free clinics."
As Dr. Fang spoke, he couldn't help but smile gently, as if he was remembering that experience.
After hearing these words, the old man was still weeping silently, and his tears fell on the table drop by drop.
"Master, actually my mother passed away when I was ten years old."
Hearing this, the old man suddenly raised his head, as if he couldn't believe it.
"It was the second year after my mother and I met you, but it wasn't until I recovered from my illness at the age of sixteen and was accepted as your disciple that I told you about this, and I only said that my mother was not here soon. Died of illness before."
"Why, why don't you tell me!"
The old man patted his chest hard and asked in confusion.
"My mother said that you have accepted a huge favor by giving me medicines for free."
"We also knew the price of those medicinal herbs very well at the time."
"My mother was actually struggling with me during those years. She felt relieved when she saw that I had hope of living."
"Master, I have never told you in detail about my family background..."
Doctor Fang now told his master everything he had hidden for many years.
Originally, Dr. Fang's family background was pretty good, he had no worries about food and drink, and he was considered a wealthy family.
But because his father was involved in some unreasonable things, the family was ruined overnight.
Doctor Fang's mother relied on a mother's perseverance to survive in such an encounter and led Doctor Fang to survive.
However, the house leaked and it rained all night, and the boat was late and encountered a strong wind.
The life of the mother and son fell from the clouds. As soon as they stabilized in the quagmire, Dr. Fang's childhood symptoms showed signs of illness.
Dr. Fang's mother used all her remaining savings to pay for her son's medical treatment. However, she was either defrauded of money or told that he was terminally ill. Finally, she saw hope when she met Dr. Fang's master.
But Dr. Fang’s mother never got to see her son recover from the illness.
Doctor Fang relied on the little money left by his mother at that time and worked as hard as he could until the day he recovered from his illness at the age of sixteen.
Then he was lucky enough to become the disciple of the person he admired most.
But studying medicine is not an easy task and is extremely energy-consuming.
Dr. Fang gradually found it difficult to balance life and studying medicine, and felt strenuous.
He didn't want to disappoint his master, but as he continued to reduce his rest time, his body gradually couldn't support it.
One day, Dr. Fang fainted from exhaustion on the road. When he woke up, he saw a familiar face.
"Master, you don't know yet."
"Actually, I still had a childhood sweetheart, but after something happened at home, we lost contact. Unexpectedly, we met again that day."
"Her name is Liu Qianxi."
Speaking of his childhood sweetheart, Dr. Fang could not suppress the smile on his face.
"I never thought we would meet again."
"It's just that we were all embarrassed at the time."
At that time, Dr. Fang was struggling to have enough food and clothing, and he was still trying to learn medical skills and had too much time to take care of himself.
Qianqian was sold to Hu Yulou.
Their family was also involved in the same thing as Doctor Fang.
But as a girl, Sissi was even more miserable than Doctor Fang, and even lost her freedom.
At that time, Sissi helped Dr. Fang go through the most difficult period, and Dr. Fang gradually became successful in his medical skills and began to make a living by treating diseases and saving people.
The relationship between two people is each other's biggest secret, no one knows except themselves.
A few years later, Dr. Fang's medical skills were recognized by his master, who recommended him to take the examination at Tai Hospital.
At this time, Doctor Fang realized that his master still had such a way.
Doctor Fang and Sissi have been saving money together in the past few years so that they can redeem Sissi's freedom and start their new life again.
It's just that it's not easy for them to make money. Sissi's ransom money is an astronomical figure for both of them.
But if Dr. Fang becomes an imperial physician, this matter will be much easier.
Just by virtue of his status as an imperial physician, Doctor Fang was able to borrow the money without paying much interest.
Because being able to make friends with the imperial doctor is already a huge benefit.
The two saw hope. Doctor Fang, under the guidance of his master, went all out to prepare for the examination at Tai Hospital.
Dr. Fang did not disappoint Master and Sissi, and successfully passed the examination at Tai Hospital.
After getting the news that he passed the exam, he immediately approached Hu Yulou's mother Zhou to make a deal.
Mother Zhou gave Dr. Fang a very low redemption price because of his status as a newly promoted imperial physician.
But at this time, Zhou's mother didn't know the relationship between the two. She just thought that Mrs. Fang Da wanted to buy herself a concubine and warm bed after she became successful.
"That day, I borrowed money and ran to find Sissi, but I only saw blood stains in a room."
"I later found Sissi in Sanlipo outside Dongcheng..."
Upon hearing the words "Sanlipo", Doctor Fang's master knocked over the chair he was sitting on with a bang and staggered.
"Muyang, Muyang..."
"You should have told me, you should have told me earlier."
The old man hugged Fang Muyang's arm, his tone full of distress.
Fang Muyang was already in tears at this time, but his expression didn't change much.
"Master, you haven't said anything yet."
"If I knew that you were the legendary Chief Doctor Xue in the palace, I would definitely beg you to redeem Sissi's body first, and then work as a horse for you in this life to repay your kindness."
Li Xuan was shocked when he heard this.
"The surname is Xue, imperial physician!?"
"This old man is Doctor Xue!"
Li Xuan had heard his name for a long time but had never seen him. He didn't expect to see Imperial Physician Xue here, and he was actually Fang Muyang's master.
Imperial Physician Xue was the palace physician who diagnosed Princess Ankang not to live until she was eighteen years old. Li Xuan could always hear his name in the palace.
"Mu Yang, master is sorry for you, I'm sorry for you..."
The master and apprentice hugged each other and cried, but Fang Muyang looked indifferent, and Doctor Xue was very excited.
"It's not my fault, Master, it's all fate."
"The cycle of nature brings unfavorable retribution."
"I concealed the fact that I was a sinner from you back then, and this concealment also caused the bitter consequences now."
Doctor Xue heard the implication of his beloved disciple’s words and quickly advised:
"Muyang, you can't continue!"
"Your mother, and Sissi, they would never want to see you like this."
Fang Muyang lowered his head and said in despair:
"Master, I'm sorry."
"I failed to make good use of the medical skills you taught me."
"There is still one last step left, I must complete it."
"Master, please leave quickly."
"I don't want to implicate you."
How could Imperial Physician Xue helplessly watch his beloved disciple go to a dead end? Naturally, he would not leave easily.
But at this moment, the door was slammed open, a black figure rushed in, and then fell directly to the ground.
Seeing this, Fang Muyang wiped the tears on his face, and then leaned over to check on the man.
Doctor Xue stood aside and turned to look at the person who suddenly broke in.
Only then did Li Xuan see the face of Imperial Physician Xue clearly.
He was an amiable old man with white hair and a childish face, and a gentle temperament that made people feel close to him.
"who is she?"
Doctor Xue couldn't help but ask.
But Li Xuan recognized this person first because his wheat-colored skin was so distinctive.
"Ayimu!"
Ayimu's face was pale at this time, the veil on his face was open randomly, his body was still stained with some blood, and there were residual bloodshot eyes at the corners of his mouth.
"She is Hu Yulou's oiran, Ayimu."
"By chance, you can be regarded as my accomplice."
Fang Muyang explained to Imperial Physician Xue.
Ayimu was indeed outside of Fang Muyang's plan.
Originally, he kidnapped Ayimu in order to put pressure on Zhou's mother, forcing her to commit suicide by jumping into the fire pit and ending her life.
If Zhou's mother hadn't been blinded by money and unilaterally tore up Fang Muyang's agreement to redeem Qian Qian's life, and instead openly let Zhao Si and Hou San bid, the subsequent tragedy would not have happened.
Fang Muyang found out clearly that Zhao Si and Hou San were bidding that day, and Zhou's mother was behind them.
A girl who originally could only sell for thirty taels, ended up selling it for a high price of two hundred and fifty taels. I guess Mother Zhou was very happy.
But what Zhou's mother didn't know was that she had to pay back the extra two hundred and twenty taels of silver with her life.
"What are you doing standing still?"
"Hurry up and save me!"
Ayimu gritted her teeth, panted heavily, and said to Mu Yang in an annoyed tone.
"Didn't you go check on Zhou's mother's body?"
"How did it happen?"
Fang Muyang said that he was going to treat Ayimu.
As a result, Doctor Xue took the lead and stuck several silver needles into Ayimu's body.
Ayimu immediately glared and stared at Doctor Xue with hatred.
"Old man, what are you doing!?"
Ayimu found that the energy and blood in his body began to flow extremely slowly, and he could not mobilize any strength. His body was as soft as noodles, with no resistance.
"Little girl, don't be ungrateful. I am here to help you heal your injuries."
Ayimu is not a fool. He doesn’t know that he is under the control of others, so he opens his mouth and spits out angrily:
"you……"
As a result, as soon as Ayimu uttered a word, Fang Muyang on the side quickly stopped him:
"This is my master, don't be rude. If he wanted to harm you, you would have been stabbed to death just now."
Ayimu held back the rest of his words.
People under the eaves have to bow their heads.
"Little girl, she is young, has a hot temper, and her cultivation is not bad."
Doctor Xue twirled his beard and commented, but made no move to continue healing Ayimu's injuries.
At this time, Fang Muyang explained from the side:
"Master, I originally wanted to kidnap Ayimu and give her freedom."
"Mother Zhou spent a lot of money on her. Without Ayimu, Mother Zhou will be forced into a desperate situation."
"But I didn't expect that Ayimu not only didn't want to regain his freedom, but also wanted to return to Hu Yulou."
"And she has cultivation skills, so there's nothing I can do about her."
"After she heard that I was going to deal with Mother Zhou, she wanted to cooperate with me."
"I want Mother Zhou's life, and she wants Mother Zhou's property."
After hearing this, Doctor Xue took a deep look at Ayimu.
Ayimu felt that she was being penetrated by that gaze, and avoided Doctor Xue's gaze uncomfortably.
"interesting."
Doctor Xue nodded, and then asked Ayimu:
"Then what's the matter with your injury?"
Ayimu turned her head away, unwilling to talk to Dr. Xue.
Fang Muyang continued to act as peacemaker.
"Mother Zhou is missing now. She probably died in the secret passage where I had tampered with her."
"Ayimu told me about this secret passage."
"She went to confirm Zhou's mother's life and death earlier, and it seems she was ambushed."
At this time, Ayimu said angrily:
"That's definitely not Hu Yulou's thug, not even a master on Hua Street!"
"Fang Muyang, how many things are you hiding from me, you bastard?"
Ayimu blamed Fang Muyang for his unfortunate experience.
Li Xuan, who was peeking out of the window, understood.
Ayimu must have met the eunuch in colorful clothes who was staring at the secret room of the cellar.
But this Ayimu also had some abilities and was able to escape from the clutches of the colorful eunuch.
Even though there is only one eunuch in colorful clothes who is responsible for keeping an eye on the secret room of the cellar, he is still a real master.
This Ayimu's strength is definitely in the third level.
With such strength, Ayimu is probably no ordinary courtesan.
"Don't you hide a lot of things from me?"
Fang Muyang said calmly.
Ayimu was so angry that her chest choked, and she almost lost her breath and vomited blood.
But the slow flow of Qi and blood in her body at this time prevented this situation from happening.
Seeing Ayimu in such a mess, Fang Muyang stopped getting angry with her and explained:
"This matter really has nothing to do with me. Whether it's the Hou family or the Zhao family, I'm afraid there will be no masters who can hurt you."
"You said that your Qinggong is unrivaled in the world."
Fang Muyang spoke calmly, simply repeating what Ayimu once said.
"you!?"
Ayimu was so angry that she glared at Fang Muyang. If she hadn't had the strength now, she would have slapped the murderous doctor long ago.
"Okay, okay, you'd better calm down, otherwise you'll still be mad at yourself even after your injury is healed."
After knowing what happened, Doctor Xue on the side really helped Ayimu treat his injuries.
"Recently, some nobles from the palace have come out of the palace. You may have met a master from within."
"Just think of it as your own bad luck."
Doctor Xue tapped a few acupuncture points on Ayimu's body, then took out a pill from his arms and stuffed it into her mouth.
Ayimu was completely weak at this time and could only let Doctor Xue do anything.
But after all this trouble, Ayimu suddenly felt that the chaotic breath in his body became much smoother.
"Just rest for a few days and you'll be fine."
"You only sustained this injury after fighting against a master from Ouchi. Your Qinggong is truly invincible."
Ayimu's wheat-colored face suddenly turned red, and then he yelled:
"What's going on with you two, master and disciple?"
"It's not over yet, is it?"
“\u0026*…￥\u0026…”
Ayimu then greeted Doctor Xue and Fang Muyang in pure Western dialect.
Doctor Xue laughed and said with emotion: "You people from the Western Regions are still energetic."
He then waved his hand and signaled Fang Muyang to lift Ayimu to the bed.
Fang Muyang pressed on Ayimu's throat by the way, and then Ayimu began to say "abaaaaba", and those noisy Western dialects could no longer be uttered.
After throwing Ayimu onto the bed, the master and apprentice sat down again.
After experiencing a confession, both of them felt a little strange.
"Muyang, what are you going to do next?"
Fang Muyang lowered his head, hesitated, and said:
"I must avenge Sissi."
"Hou San is dead, only Zhao Sihe is left..."
Fang Muyang said, looking back at Ayimu on the bed.
Ayimu nodded angrily at Fang Muyang.
Fang Muyang said happily:
"Zhao Si is the only one left."
This time, Doctor Xue did not give any more advice, but continued to ask:
"What about after killing the last person?"
Fang Muyang shook his head and said:
"I haven't thought about it yet."
Doctor Xue reached out and patted the back of Fang Muyang's hand.
"Then think about it slowly, consider it slowly, Master has been waiting for you."
"If you need help..."
Before Doctor Xue finished speaking, Fang Muyang hurriedly shook his head.
"Master, you are the best doctor in the world. You cannot follow your disciples and get involved in these things."
"Disciple needs this resentment, you don't need it and you shouldn't have it."
The master and apprentice were silent for a while, not knowing what to say.
At this time, the sound of the window turning suddenly sounded.
The three people in the room all turned their heads and looked in the direction of the sound.
A little black cat rolled in from the window as if there was no one around, jumped on the table with cat steps, and sat between the master and the apprentice.
"You got a new cat?"
Doctor Xue raised his eyebrows and asked.
"No, this is a previous guest's cat."
Fang Muyang replied, then helplessly touched Li Xuan's head and said:
"Your master also said you would never get lost."
"Hey, what's going on now?"
Fang Muyang smiled softly and spoke to Li Xuan as if he were talking to a child.
"A person who likes cats can't be a bad person."
With this in mind, Li Xuan took out some water from the Emperor Hong Bone Ring, dipped it in the tail, and wrote a few words on the table.
"Zhao Si is hiding at home, how can you kill him?"
Thanks to the neighboring village Wang Ergou, Liuye Lihen, and Angel Aijiaoke for their reward support.
Thank you all book friends for your monthly support.
This chapter was really hard to write and kept everyone waiting for a long time.
Good night, see you tomorrow
