Waiting for a car?

After Concubine Yang heard this, she immediately fell silent.

In Daqian, there are always some people whose names are taboo.

For example, King Zhenbei, Princess Anyang, and their brothers and sisters.

As the son of the legendary champion of Daqian, Fengchezihou, and because he was deeply favored by the emperor, he was naturally included in this list.

Even among all the nobles in Qiandu, this one is unique.

It's not a good idea to ask for news about him.

Especially since Long Yuan was still the second prince, he had a special status. If this matter came to the ears of Emperor Renxuan, there would be some troubles.

Therefore, after Fengchezihou pondered for a while, instead of giving an answer, he asked: "My son asked Fengchezihou why?"

Xiang Longyuan seemed to see the worry in her eyes, and immediately said: "Mother, don't worry too much, my child has no other ideas."

"It's just that a month ago, I said something wrong and made my father unhappy."

"Think of something to do to remedy the situation."

"I heard that Marquis Fengche's lung disease has become more and more serious in recent years, and my father is worried about it day and night. When I was in northern Xinjiang, I happened to meet a famous doctor in the army, so I wanted to ask him to take a look at Marquis Fengche, so as to please him. My father’s pleasure.”

Hearing this, the worry in Yang Fei's eyes subsided and she nodded: "My son's idea is very safe."

"It's just that serving a chariot as a marquis has always been taboo in the court, and I don't know much about it."

When Xiang Longyuan heard this, he couldn't hide his disappointment and sighed: "Even the ministers in the court don't know about it. My mother is a member of the harem, so it's normal that she can't get any news."

After all, Emperor Renxuan has always been talented and strategic, so how could he tolerate the harem interfering in politics?

When Concubine Yang heard this, she was not disappointed, but instead raised her eyebrows slightly, showing a bit of pride.

"But, I do have some news."

When Xiang Longyuan heard this, the look of disappointment on his face suddenly disappeared, his eyes dilated, his pupils shrank, and a look of surprise visible to the naked eye bloomed on his face.

"Does the queen mother really mean what she said?"

"There is no reason for a mother to deceive her own children."

"A few days ago, His Majesty was really worried, so I asked a few questions. Maybe it was because the matter was not important, and His Majesty was not prepared, so he revealed a few words to me."

"It is true that I am worried about Marquis Fengche. If this famous doctor under your command can really cure Marquis Fengche, I am afraid he will be able to relieve your father's heartache."

"When the time comes, the position of Prince..."

Concubine Yang did not continue, but the mother and son knew what it meant.

Xiang Longyuan was originally happy, but after hearing Concubine Yang's words, his face became a little worried again.

"Mother, although the famous doctor under my command is said to have great medical skills, the stubborn disease of Feng Che Zihou is an old problem after all."

"In two years, I have seen countless doctors, but they have not been cured."

"My subordinate, if he is to be cured, he may be a little... helpless."

When Concubine Yang heard this, she immediately smiled and said: "I take it as nothing, it doesn't matter if it can't be cured."

"But we have already made the appearance, and your father sees it. At least it is much better than the prince not doing anything at all."

Hearing this, Xiang Longyuan nodded immediately: "That's what I mean too. It won't be too late. I'll go back and prepare now!"

…

Three days later, Gu Mansion.

Gu Beichuan packed his luggage and dressed up properly, then he and Li Dongbi went out under the escort of three hundred soldiers.

Although allicin has miraculous effects, Huo Qiji must not have been completely cured at this time.

But Gu Beichuan really couldn't wait any longer. Anyone who has tried it knows the feeling of hanging your head under someone else's sharp knife.

It would be better to find a career as an official as early as possible.

However, when he arrived at the Huo Mansion, Gu Beichuan saw the old housekeeper smiling with him from a distance and talking to the two of them.

When I got closer, I realized that one of them was tall and muscular.

The other person was dressed as a doctor, but...it was a bit nondescript.

In Daqian, normal doctors wear coarse cloth plain clothes, a white scarf on their head, and black cloth shoes on their feet.

If you are more sophisticated, you will also tie a black ribbon around your waist.

In Daqian, black is the color that symbolizes Hades, underworld and death.

Wearing this ribbon often means that the doctor is extremely confident in his own medical skills, which means that he can bow down to the ghosts and gods in the underworld and steal patients.

As for the man in front of me, why do you say he is dressed in a nondescript manner?

Because although he was wearing white clothes, he could not be called plain.

It is embroidered with splendid cloud patterns and even embellished with strips of gold thread, making it look particularly luxurious.

What he wears on his head is not a white scarf, but a crown!

You should know that in Daqian, only officials and nobles are qualified to wear the crown.

Although the court is not particular about this aspect, it will not arrest you for wearing your crown carelessly.

But as far as ordinary people are concerned, they will never wear a crown.

Furthermore, the black cloth shoes were replaced with boots of better quality.

The black silk belt around the waist is even edged with golden moire.

Judging from this outfit alone, he doesn't look like a poor doctor, but more like... a luxurious businessman or a distinguished person.

However, if you add his face, then this remaining ray of nobility will be gone.

This person's face is quite unique. Once you have seen it, it is difficult to forget it.

His forehead was high and his wrinkles were intertwined and layered on top of each other.

The nose is long and pointed, the eyes are slender, and the lips are thin and tight. The cheekbones are high, the hair is sparse and white, hanging randomly on the back of the head. The body is slender but skinny, with drooped shoulders and a bulging back, giving the appearance of a hunchback.

How can I put it, this dignified appearance and this luxurious outfit are really completely different.

Just looking at the old housekeeper's expression, he seemed to be particularly respectful to these two people.

Gu Beichuan and Li Dongbi waited for a while. Seeing that this matter seemed to be unending, they simply stepped forward.

When the old housekeeper saw them, he immediately put the strange-looking two people aside, bowed his hands and said, "I have met Mr. Gu."

When the two people saw this, they were suddenly shocked.

The sinister-faced warrior calmed down a bit of his anger, and the hunchbacked old man straightened his body, trying to look more decent.

"I'm looking for Mr. Huo. Can I go in?" Gu Beichuan said to the old housekeeper.

"Whatever Mr. Gu said, as long as you want to come, the door of Huo Mansion will be open for you at any time."

With that said, the old housekeeper ordered his servant to open the door, hoping to lure Gu Beichuan in.

Gu Beichuan nodded slightly, feeling quite at home.

Unexpectedly, the fierce-faced warrior was not happy.

He said angrily: "Why can he go in but we can't?"

Before he could continue, the hunchbacked old man stopped him, turned to face Gu Beichuan, and performed a nondescript medical ceremony.

He made a rather harsh voice: "May I ask, what is the identity of this gentleman?"

"Everything has a first-come, first-served basis. Even if you have a noble status, you should not use your power to bully others."

When Gu Beichuan heard this, he frowned and said, "I'm just a white man, how can I use my power to bully others?"

Hearing this, the hunchbacked old man was startled for a moment, and then his face became visibly cold. His narrow eyes narrowed, like a dormant poisonous snake, and he slowly retreated, leaving the scene to the sinister warrior.
