Doctors in the late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 22 Zhang Jiebin’s Worries

After hearing Zhang Jiebin's cry, Xu Chunfu became angry, slapped his chest and said, "Jiebin, don't panic. After the court meeting tomorrow, I will go to the palace and go to the Empress Dowager Li in person to intercede. Isn't it true that Xu has been the imperial doctor for more than ten years?"

It’s all done in vain, I’ll protect you!”

"Seriously?" Zhang Jiebin looked at Xu Chunfu expectantly.

"Of course, Xu never said anything false in his life." Xu Chunfu said proudly.

"Then should I continue to stay in Yiyitang?" Zhang Jiebin asked, he still felt that Yiyitang was not safe.

"No, you go to Dingxihou Mansion now and stay for a few days. We will talk about everything after I enter the palace tomorrow." Xu Chunfu said.

"Uncle Xu, are you worried that King Lu will attack me in advance?" Zhang Jiebin asked.

"Yes, I watched him grow up. He never gets anything he wants. He has long developed a self-centered attitude. If he learns that you are here, I'm worried that he will secretly send someone to capture you.

If someone dies without any evidence, then he will suffer."

Xu Chunfu frowned and said. When Zhang Jiebin heard this, he was almost frightened to death. Can this person be so cruel?

"I have an exemption card here. You can take it out at night. The Military and Horse Department will let you go after seeing this." Xu Chunfu took out a tooth card and handed it to Zhang Jiebin and said.

This is a dental plaque specially used by imperial doctors. It is different from those worn by ordinary ministers and also different from those worn by other palace officials.

"Remember, don't lose it. Ask your father to take it to Zuo Chang'an Gate for me tomorrow morning, otherwise I won't be able to enter the palace." Xu Chunfu warned.

"I understand, Uncle Xu, don't worry!" Zhang Jiebin assured him, looking at the tooth plaque curiously. Seeing that Xu Chunfu was about to leave, he hurriedly saluted and said, "What a great kindness, I will never forget it!"
"Study medicine well, don't let down your father and your master's hard work." Xu Chunfu said, he still remembered the assurances given to him by Jin Ying and Zhang Shoufeng that day in the Ministry of War cell.

Zhang Jiebin didn't know what Xu Chunfu meant, and said with deep understanding: "This is natural, Jiebin will not disappoint their expectations."

"It's good to know." Xu Chunfu said, turned and left, and after walking a few steps, he turned back and asked, "You are already fourteen, almost fifteen, right?"

Zhang Jiebin quickly nodded in agreement, wondering why Xu Chunfu asked this question.

"You will be an adult next year. It's time to think about getting married." Xu Chunfu nodded and said.

When Zhang Jiebin heard this, he shook his head and said: "There is no rush, there is no rush. It will not be too late to get it done in four or five years. Uncle Xu, please don't tell your father and master, I haven't grown up yet. It's too late."

Let’s talk in a few years.”

Xu Chunfu smiled and walked out without saying anything.

When Zhang Jiebin saw the door closed, he looked at the dental plaque in his hand again, feeling inexplicably feeling a sense of security.

"It would be great if I became a disciple of Uncle Xu. I can rely on the imperial doctor, the Xin'an Medical Family, and Yiyitang. No, no, life is not good for those senior brothers. Master Jin loves me more."

Zhang Jiebin thought about it and denied it. Whenever he thought of the situation of Xu Chunfu's disciples, he couldn't help but shudder and thought that he couldn't bear it. Of course, he would not think that his medical skills were not as good as those of his senior brothers. At most, he was only temporarily behind.

, whoever makes him younger can always surpass him.

It finally got dark and the Yiyi Hall was closed. The doctors who wanted to go home had left half an hour ago. At this time, they were all doctors who lived in the backyard of the Yiyi Hall, and they were basically from the Xin'an medical family. Among them were

Half of them are Xu Chunfu's nephews and disciples.

Anyone here who is released can stand alone and become a famous doctor in a county or township, but in Yiyi Tang, half of them are not able to sit in the clinic and can only wait on the side.

They are not as free as Zhang Jiebin. Although Zhang Jiebin is not lazy, he always criticizes, does things casually, and always rushes to do what he wants to do.

It was just before that he followed Xu Chunfu for a living, and according to his own wishes, he changed from an apprentice to Chen Shigong's attendant without authorization, rising several levels, and completing the journey of several years as an ordinary apprentice in just a few days. This is

Yiyitang is the only one.

Zhang Jiebin ran to Chen Shigong and said: "I have something to do these days. Wait until I come back and continue to accompany you. In fact, your skills are not bad. I probably have a clue and I will be able to defeat you in a short time. Remember, wait until I come back."

."

Chen Shigong sneered: "I wouldn't have made the mistakes you just made eight years ago."

Zhang Jiebin blushed and argued: "That's because...there's a reason for that!"

Chen Shigong said nothing more, packed up his things and walked to the backyard. Zhang Jiebin shouted from behind: "Don't forget, wait until I come back to defeat you!"

Seeing that Chen Shigong was indifferent, Zhang Jiebin was not angry. Through this period of observation, he had already discovered that Chen Shigong had a strong surgical talent, and he was also proficient in using internal and external treatment methods to achieve the effect of lifting a thousand pounds.

But no one is perfect, and Chen Shigong is at a loss when it comes to treating internal diseases and new surgical diseases. He often has to meditate for a long time and think over and over again, but the results are not very good. This is Zhang Jiebin's hope.

After waiting for a long time, after the evening drums were beaten, the clock was played, and the night ban began, Zhang Jiebin Shi Shiran took the lantern and prepared to go out.

There is no specific sect in Yiyitang. They all work with attendants and apprentices to prepare for emergencies at night. Zhang Jiebin also stayed overnight as an apprentice before.

"Junior Brother Zhang, the night ban has begun. Don't go home." Seeing Zhang Jiebin dressed up, the senior brother on night duty advised him.

"Senior Brother Xu, I have something urgent. Uncle Xu asked me to handle it. Look, here is the no-ban sign." Zhang Jiebin said, taking out the tooth sign and showing it to him.

This senior brother Xu is the third son of Xu Chunfu. He is a few years older than Zhang Jiebin and has the best relationship with him. Hearing this, he stopped blocking him and opened the door to let Zhang Jiebin out.

"Senior Brother Xu, Yiyi Tang was established nine years ago. Where did you do your clinics before?" Zhang Jiebin turned around and asked as soon as he left the house.

Senior Brother Xu was stunned. He didn't expect Zhang Jiebin to ask such a question. He thought about it and replied: "I was not in the capital at that time. I heard it was called Baoyuan Hall. It should be this name. I don't know what Baoyuan Hall is now."

How, let alone where."

Zhang Jiebin looked at him blankly, not knowing what to say. Senior Brother Xu had already finished what he wanted to ask, but he still didn't know anything except his name.

Along the way to the Dingxi Marquis' Mansion, he met the Dongcheng Soldiers and Horses Division, the Nancheng Soldiers and Horses Division and the Xicheng Soldiers and Horses Division. They checked the tooth tag in his hand and let him go. They just told him to take the main road and not the alleys.
Although the capital is safe, with five cities of troops and horses standing guard, thefts and even murders still occur.

Zhang Jiebin naturally knows how to take the high road. He is not in a hurry and does not need to rush. He has a no-ban card and does not need to avoid the patrols of the soldiers and horses.

His crisis is in the palace, at the hands of King Lu who is causing harm to the capital.
