Lu Xiao's plan was successful. The next day, people from Pingnan Palace came to find us.
"Excuse me, is this Doctor Lu in person?"
"It's me."
"Doctor Lu, my prince has invited you."
The visitor didn't give Lu Xiao a chance to refuse. After all, he was from the palace, so he didn't need to be too polite when inviting a little-known quack doctor. But considering that he was treating the prince's illness, the other party didn't go overboard.
A comfortable carriage was prepared and Lu Xiao was taken to the palace.
When he arrived at the palace, Lu Xiao realized that he had thought wrong. Because there were already more than a hundred doctors gathered here. It was estimated that all the doctors in the capital were already here. And the number was still increasing.
From time to time in the front room, a doctor walked out dejectedly. King Pingnan did not criticize them harshly. After all, people still have to be shameful in the capital. If anyone looked bad and was sent to prison, then he would have been sent to prison by now.
Ran out.
Seeing that Lu Xiao was a young man, no one among the doctors paid attention to him. Generally speaking, doctors in ancient China were more popular with those with long white beards.
But soon, everyone discovered that they were wrong. Not long after Lu Xiao arrived, two guards came to Lu Xiao, allowing him to avoid queuing and enter the inner courtyard directly.
After Lu Xiao entered, he discovered that the people gathered here should all be famous doctors. Almost every one of them was a doctor from the top medical center in the capital, the kind with a good reputation. Relatively speaking, he himself was the least famous one.
kind.
Lu Xiao has not opened a medical clinic in this world, and has not even treated a few people. This is because he puts more energy into healing himself and the possibility of taking a closer step.
Most people in the martial arts world will fall into a bottleneck after their martial arts reaches a certain level. Many people will choose to enjoy life. Because after their martial arts reaches a certain level, it is extremely difficult to break through and go further.
It may take half a lifetime to do it, but it may not be possible.
And in this situation where there is no way forward, naturally a large number of people will give up.
But Lu Xiao was different. He would not give up. He thought he knew he would be able to break through and see the way forward. Moreover, the pleasure of growing personal power made him deeply addicted to it.
He will enjoy the best life as much as possible, but he will not be addicted to it. Because in all the worlds, power is what he is most addicted to at the moment.
In the medical clinic, all the doctors exchanged glances with each other and confirmed that no one knew Lu Xiao. Therefore, they all turned their heads, naturally leaving him alone.
In this industry, no matter what time it is, peers are attracted to each other.
Lu Xiao naturally wouldn't care about this kind of thing. He was happy to be alone, sitting in the corner. Because he knew that no one in the world could cure a blind eye with Jin Jiuling's method.
At this time, another person was brought in. As soon as this person came in, Lu Xiao, who had been forcing his eyes to rest, suddenly opened his eyes.
An ordinary old man, this is the first impression given by him. In fact, Lu Xiao also gives the same impression to most people.
The doctors looked at the new arrival and determined that he was someone they didn't know, so they naturally isolated the old man.
While Lu Xiao was looking at the old man, the old man was also sizing up Lu Xiao. The first time they looked at each other, they determined that the other person was probably the person they were looking for.
Wu Ming.
Lu Xiao.
Neither of them said anything verbally, but in each other's eyes, they both confirmed what the other meant.
At this time, Jin Jiuling, the steward of the palace, appeared. When he saw Lu Xiao, his expression did not change at all, as if he just saw an ordinary person.
"Everyone, two days ago, the prince was assassinated. His right eye was stabbed with a steel needle. The prince loves his son so much that he gave a large reward. As long as the prince's eyes can be cured, the prince will not be stingy with the reward. I only hope that you can
We can work together to heal the prince."
It turns out that these famous doctors are not being tested one by one, but these famous doctors are working together. So what happened to those doctors who left on their own before? Then those people still need to go through some kind of test. And the few here are all interviewed?
At this time, Wu Ming had already walked to Lu Xiao.
"Little old man Wu Ming, I have met Mr. Lu."
Wu Ming was very polite to Lu Xiao. He was one of the few unknown people he had seen in this world. Therefore, he naturally had to be polite. In Wu Ming's mind, he probably thought that this was a fun toy.
Take good care of it to prevent it from getting damaged.
In Lu Xiao's mind, he actually had the same idea. Wu Ming was the only person in the world who could interest him in martial arts. Therefore, he naturally had to maintain it well and use it as much as possible.
A group of doctors, led by Jin Jiuling, had already entered the prince's room.
In fact, the current Crown Prince's problem is not that big. Except for the fact that he is blind in one eye, everything else is fine. But his eyes, which cannot be covered, are injured in the most conspicuous place. This has seriously affected their plans.
.This made the prince extremely irritable.
As soon as the doctors entered, they immediately lost the confidence they had outside and became cautious one by one. They were afraid of offending the irascible prince.
Fortunately, although the prince is irritable, he also knows his priorities. It is now less than a month before the decisive battle. If he cannot cure his eyes, he must use a backup plan and use the human skin mask he made before. But that
If so, the flaw will be even greater.
For things like rebellion, the fewer flaws, the better.
He took off the gauze on his eyes and exposed his wounds to the eyes of the doctors. The doctors immediately came forward and looked at the wounds carefully. At the same time, they also examined the prince's body by taking his pulse.
Seven or eight old men hung around the prince for half an hour, and then they gathered together again and discussed for a long time. Finally, the oldest old man came out tremblingly.
"Your Majesty, please make atonement. It's true that we are not very talented and have little knowledge. I am afraid that we are powerless to deal with your injuries."
At this moment, everyone in the room felt that the prince's anger level had soared. He even had his right hand on the sword, ready to kill these losers.
Upon seeing this, Jin Jiuling hurriedly stepped forward, whispered a few words in his ear, and then pointed at Lu Xiao and Wu Ming.
Only then did the prince realize that there were still two people who had not stepped forward.
"You two, why don't you step forward to diagnose me?"
Lu Xiao glanced at Wu Ming, who motioned for him to speak. Lu Xiao was not polite and stepped forward to speak.
"His Majesty, we both agree. Your injuries, Your Majesty, are probably hopeless."
"You guys." The prince was about to get angry when he heard Lu Xiao say something else.
"This injury cannot be cured. I'm afraid the only option is to replace the prince's eye."
