Chapter 214 The emperor came forward and supported Chu Yunxi
The emperor looked majestically at the courtiers.
"I see that all your salt has been wasted. You are not as good as a woman! Dr. Zhang is the head of the Taiyuan Hospital. If anyone in the entire Taiyuan Hospital feels that his medical skills are worse than Dr. Zhang, you can ask him to have a test."
Several imperial doctors who were brought here by Duke Xiao wished they could bury their heads in the soil.
Can you be the head of the Taiyuan Hospital only if you are old? Of course, you must have superb medical skills, experience, and enough to convince the public to lead the Taiyuan Hospital.
Anyone among them who dares to challenge Dr. Zhang's medical skills would be a slap in the face.
"Your Majesty, although Imperial Physician Zhang has superb medical skills, the medical books of other Imperial Physicians are also good. Only by asking a few more Imperial Physicians to take a look will we be responsible for the life of the Crown Prince!"
Duke Xiao ignored the emperor's expression and retorted.
The emperor waved his hand.
"Xiao Guogong is also old. Do you really think that three cobblers can equal one Zhuge Liang?"
Xiao Guogong took a look in his heart, is he old? He has not seen his blood ascending to the throne of God, is he old?
"Your Majesty, if you are so desperate and only use Dr. Zhang, how can you block everyone in the world? Where will you put the other doctors?"
Xiao Guogong looked at the emperor who coughed a few more times, thinking that he would definitely outlive the emperor.
Chu Yunxi, who was listening quietly on the side, suddenly had a bold idea.
"Father, my daughter-in-law has a suggestion, I don't know whether to talk about it or not."
The emperor glanced at her, and now he looked well-behaved. Hasn't she already said everything that should be said and things that should not be said?
If he hadn't heard it with his own ears just now, he would have thought that the woman who was quarreling with the ministers was someone else.
"speak!"
After receiving the emperor's permission, Chu Yunxi said:
"Father, my daughter-in-law thinks that the method you just mentioned to let other imperial doctors challenge Imperial Physician Zhang is a very good one."
The emperor narrowed his eyes, did she have a proposal?
Chu Yunxi said again:
"It would be better to put the competition venue outside the palace and invite traditional Chinese medicine practitioners from Beijing to observe and witness. It will also arouse more young people's enthusiasm for studying medicine."
The emperor just wanted to intimidate the restless imperial doctors. After hearing what Chu Yunxi said, he began to think about what Chu Yunxi's ultimate goal was. Could it be that he wanted to delay time through a competition?
Xiao Guogong sneered coldly.
"Humph, after all, she is a woman and she should not participate in court affairs. The prince is so noble. It is important to save the prince. What is the point of letting ignorant people watch the competition? It is nothing more than a waste of time!"
Contrary to Xiao Guogong's irritability, Chu Yunxi was very calm at this time.
"Father, water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. It is precisely because of His Royal Highness' status that it is safer to select the treatment candidate under the witness of the people."
Duke Xiao suddenly remembered the information he had received recently about what kind of medical school the Chu family was running. Putting these two things together, Duke Xiao suddenly understood Chu Yunxi's intentions.
Put it to the test outside the palace, but Chu Yunxi could figure it out.
"It's business to save the prince as soon as possible and save the prince as soon as possible. If you want to make money, you shouldn't do it at this time."
Everyone was confused after hearing this, and even the emperor narrowed his eyes.
"how do I say this?"
Duke Xiao Guogong looked at the Chu family and clasped his fists at the emperor again.
"Your Majesty, I have heard that the three brothers of the Chu family have set up a medical school. According to my opinion, Miss Chu's proposal for imperial doctors to compete outside the palace is just to build momentum for her medical school so that she can make money later!"
"Is this possible?"
The emperor frowned and looked at Chu Yunxi. Naturally, he knew the Chu family's actions. He also wanted to know whether Chu Yunxi made such a suggestion at this time out of selfish motives.
"Your Majesty, the medical school is true, but the medical school is not in the name of my daughter-in-law, but in the name of His Highness the Crown Prince. It was the plan that His Highness the Crown Prince made before he was injured."
Chu Yunxi didn't realize that he was caught, but slowly came to his senses.
"In wars, there have always been countless wounded people. How many of the wounded died because they were not treated in time. His Highness the Crown Prince has personally experienced the brutality of the battlefield and does not want to see the tragedy happen again. My father, His Highness the Crown Prince, wants to nip it in the bud and cultivate more understanding.
Those who are doctors are used by the country."
Chu Yunxi's words became more and more powerful, making the ministers who cared about their family and country feel excited. It turned out that His Highness, the Crown Prince, had silently planned so many things for the country and the people.
When the emperor heard Chu Yunxi say that the prince had personally experienced the battlefield, he was also heartbroken. The son he had with the woman he loved most should have been noble and unparalleled, but he had suffered so much.
"Father, the lord just said that the enemy country is now looking at him with eager eyes, but His Highness the Crown Prince was injured and unconscious. My daughter-in-law does not want to discuss the government affairs, but she just doesn't want to see His Highness the Crown Prince's hard work ruined in one day, so she wants to continue with her brothers.
The plan of His Highness the Crown Prince. My father is in poor health, so my daughter-in-law did not disturb my father. I hope my father will forgive me."
Chu Yunxi's words were well-founded and reasonable. Even the emperor was touched.
But Xiao Guogong was still able to find an explanation.
"Now only you, the Chu family, can enter the East Palace. Naturally, what you say is what you say, and no one else can verify it!"
King Hao took a step forward.
"Brother Imperial, I heard what Duke Xiao Guo said, and I don't believe that the prince will wake up one day. The last time the prince was injured, it was King An's handiwork. I feel that Duke Xiao is really not qualified to interfere in the affairs of the East Palace.
"
"King Hao, be careful what you say!"
Duke Xiao's expression was ferocious. He actually didn't pay much attention to the Chu family's medical school. The focus now was to wait for Jun Hongyan to come to the capital and deal with the prince. But bringing up the old matter of King Hao will undoubtedly increase the pressure on Jun Hongyan's return to the capital.
Obstacle.
"alright!"
The emperor scolded.
"According to what the Crown Princess said, only those whose medical skills surpass Zhang's head can enter the East Palace to diagnose and treat the Crown Prince. Others are not allowed to disturb the Crown Prince's recovery. Before entering the East Palace, the Imperial Physician issued a military order. If the Crown Prince makes any mistake, he will be executed immediately!"
"Your Majesty is wise, and I will accept your orders."
The emperor has given an order, no matter which party you are from, you can only shout the order.
The emperor's cold and majestic eyes looked at Xiao Guogong, who was still standing upright.
Duke Xiao Guogong gritted his teeth. He could not break up with the emperor before Jun Hongyan arrived in the capital.
Furthermore, he did not believe that he could not find anyone who could defeat Imperial Physician Zhang, which would be regarded as achieving his goal.
He finally lowered his head unwillingly: "I accept the decree."
The emperor then looked away and coughed a few more times, showing his weakness, as if the pressure just now was just Duke Xiao's illusion.
"It's all gone. Ahem."
The emperor was supported by Eunuch Fu and turned back to the palace.
The courtiers on Duke Xiao's side felt uneasy in their hearts. Judging from the emperor's appearance, although he was a little weak, he was not terminally ill and unable to handle affairs. He might be able to make a comeback in the near future.
The would-be crown princess is not someone to be trifled with. They should be more careful in their actions to avoid losing their heads.
The courtiers retreated one after another, but Chu Yunxi asked to see the emperor again.
"Father, father."
She knew very well that the emperor was trying to save her face in front of the courtiers because of Jun Lingyun. She didn't know if she could still call him that in private. After all, she and Jun Lingyun had not yet consummated their marriage.
"If you want to scream, just scream. Why are you stammering?"
The emperor changed his weakness in front of the courtiers and was pruning the branches and leaves of the flowers and plants.
"Yes, Xi'er is just a little ashamed." Chu Yunxi looked like a child who had made a mistake.
