Chapter 1118 The Fragment of the Secret Scroll and the Sophistication of Officialdom(1/2)

Among them was a straw man made of rushes.
Doctor Chen picked it up and took a look, trembling with anger:
Two long needles were nailed to the straw man's chest, and a small piece of white cloth was fixed on it, with his name, Imperial Physician Chen, written on it!
Witchcraft!
Someone cursed him and sent him this box!
"Vicious, good things breed evil!" Doctor Chen pulled out the long needle from the straw man again.
He was a doctor himself, and he could tell at a glance that the needle tube was hollow and was used for medical treatment.
"Liu Qi! It must be the forgetful red-eyed Liu Qi who cursed me!" He threw the needle in the box angrily, "I'll let you be proud for one night, and I'll deal with you as soon as you enter the Imperial Medical Bureau tomorrow!"
After telling the concierge to throw away the box, Doctor Chen went back to his room to rest.
He thought he would be so angry that he couldn't sleep, but he turned over on the couch and the alcohol came to him.
I don't know if it was related to the box of evil things, but he had a nightmare.
In the dream, the second prince's condition suddenly recurred again.
That crazy state is exactly the same as before.
The king was extremely angry and ordered him to come in for diagnosis and treatment.
When Doctor Chen saw that the bedside of the Second Prince was empty, he was surprised and confused: "Where is the heart lamp? It should be hung above the patient's hall and never leave it!"
King Wei sat next to his second son, with the light behind him. Doctor Chen couldn't see his face clearly, but he could feel his gloom and irritability: "It doesn't work. My son starts talking nonsense as soon as he sees this lamp. I
Have it removed!"
Doctor Chen was shocked: "I can't help it, Your Majesty, I have to hang it up quickly! The second prince must be protected by a heart lamp."
"Did you create the wrong shape or adjust the wrong light color?"
"Shape and light color don't matter, so we chose the most common melon shape. The key to refining the heart lantern is to have all the materials available, especially the light lantern is indispensable."
"Really?" King Wei waved, and the palace attendant from behind slowly approached holding a melon-shaped lantern.
Doctor Chen subconsciously said "Hey": "Why is it so big?"
"Look again."
When the palace lantern came over, Doctor Chen took a look and saw that it was actually half the size of an ordinary palace lantern, and it was covered with red paper on the outside.
He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
The "Heart Lamp" was hung in front of the Second Prince's bed, and the light shone on the patient, but it did not work as before.
It’s strange, what’s going on, why does the condition recur?
King Wei was furious when he slapped the case: "Will your method work? After so much effort, why is the heart lamp ineffective?"
Doctor Chen broke out in a cold sweat: "It's effective, it's effective. The condition occasionally relapses. As long as you persist..."
King Wei interrupted him: "Tell me clearly, where did you get this method?"
"Xiaguan..." Doctor Chen swallowed, "Xiaguan found the method of refining the heart lamp from the fragments of an ancient secret volume. After repeated deliberation, it is effective for the second prince."
"The fragment of the page records the time and place when Ming Dengzhan matured?"
"Yes, yes." Dr. Chen Baba said, "It's a lucky coincidence that within a thousand miles, only Xiaoyao Sect's Xuefeng grows light grass, and it has matured recently."
"Where did you get these fragments of the secret scroll?"
"I accidentally found it from the old bookstore at the east end of the city. I only spent two coins. I often go to the bookstore to find old books..."
"Is it true?" King Wei stared at him, "You dare to lie to me? Pull me down and hit twenty big boards first!"
Doctor Chen was so shocked that he threw himself on the ground and shouted: "I have been wronged, and my subordinates dare not deceive me!"
"Unjustly accused? Are you saying I was wrong?" King Hong chuckled, and every word made his heart skip a beat, "Thirty big boards."
Two guards with big muscles and round waists came over and tried to drag him down like a piggy to be tortured.
Doctor Chen was so frightened that his whole body trembled.
He knew very well that there were tricks in the palace palace. Thirty strokes might only hurt the flesh, but ten strokes might cost a person's life, but he didn't want to get involved in any of them.
What's more, with King Hong's temper, he can't get the result he wants, so thirty boards may be just an appetizer.
"I say, I say!" Doctor Chen softened immediately, "But the truth is even more outrageous, and it is even harder for the king to believe it. Only when you are a low-ranking official..."
Only then did I find a source for the secret scroll.
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll hit you ten times."
Doctor Chen's message immediately became clear: "The secret method of refining the mind was not found in a bookstore, but appeared directly on my desk."
"Appeared directly on your desk?" King Wei laughed when he heard this, "You mean, you didn't find the secret method, but the secret method found you on its own?"
"It sounds incredible, but it's true. It's true." Dr. Chen swallowed, "I still remember that night when I saw a doctor, I got up late the next day, went to the palace to be on duty, and didn't go home until dark.
.When I got home, there was half a booklet under the paperweight in the study, which recorded the secrets of the light bulb and the heart lamp."
"After that, I checked a lot of information and concluded that the heart lamp is most likely to be effective on the second prince!" Chen Taiyi kowtowed and said eagerly, "Your Majesty, I don't dare to tell you a single false word!"
King Wei's anger subsided a little, and he seemed to be thinking: "When did it happen?"
"Half a year, half a year ago!"
"Half a year ago? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Imperial Physician Chen quickly defended: "The appearance of the fragmented scroll was too sudden. The lower official had to check the information and work hard to identify the evidence before he dared to let the second prince use it. Besides, it was still early for Ming Dengzhan to be mature at that time."
"Is this really the case?" King Wei said coldly, "Is there no other reason?"
"No, not anymore." Although Imperial Physician Chen lowered his head, he could feel King Fan's sharp gaze, as if it could burn two holes in his forehead.
He was sweating profusely.
"Then what?" King Wei asked him again, "My son's condition is recurring. What's the explanation?"
Doctor Chen had never used a heart lamp to treat mental illness. He calmed down and said: "The souls of the two princes are still there and have not been lost. Unlike other heart-breaking diseases where one or two souls are missing, it cannot be cured by a bright lamp.
return."
"The heart lamp made of bright lamps can even expel the inner demons of immortals. It should be only a matter of time before it can deal with the second prince's illness." He pointed to the small lamp beside the bed, thinking that it was actually a overkill.
, "We still need to observe carefully here, and please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! King Wei hummed: "Who do you think will give you the secret scroll?"
"I don't know about this," Imperial Physician Chen kowtowed, "Maybe it's God blessing the second prince."
King Wei smiled: "Are you rewarding the gods?"
Gods will occasionally respond to humans when they feel it is necessary.
Doctor Chen was startled again and shook his head: "Xiaguan usually goes to the temple to offer gifts, but unfortunately he has never been favored by the gods."
"Can this mind be restored to a bright lamp?"
"Well, this probably can't be done. This treasure is made into a magic weapon, just like a tree has become a boat. The boat, the boat can't turn back into a tree."
"How do you use the reward I gave you?" King Hong said leisurely, "I heard that you have become a famous person in the capital recently, and you are popular wherever you go."
"This is all due to your favor!" Doctor Chen quickly said, "I still have the rewards, so I don't dare to use them indiscriminately and show off."
When Imperial Physician Chen woke up, he saw a white fish belly rising in the east.
It turned out to be a dream.
When he touched his forehead, he was covered in cold sweat. The bed sheet was also wet.
It's okay, okay, it's just a dream.
It’s all the fault of Liu, I will deal with him well when I return to the bureau today!

He Lingchuan also got up, stretched his neck and stretched.
The soul-catching mirror immediately asked him: "Is there anything gained?"
Among all the people/things around He Lingchuan, it is the real insider, and even knows about the existence of the Coiling Dragon World and the Nightmare.
To be continued...
