“Haha, I’ve long heard of the divine doctor’s great name. Today, I finally get to
see her true appearance.”
When Su Qing came to treat the Emperor, he was in a coma. After waking up, he had always wanted to see this young lady who had saved him.
The old Emperor had never expected to see a brave and heroic divine doctor dressed as a man. He thought the divine doctor should be immortal and unfathomable, not a courageous woman like a soldier.
“Greetings, Emperor.”
Su Qing bowed deeply to the old Emperor but did not kneel down. Her pride would not kneel to anyone except her parents.
Xiaoying and Luan Hong looked at each other and used their eyes to ask each other if they should kneel or not.
They had to kneel in the Great Xia Kingdom when they saw a high official, let alone the Emperor.
But if Sister Su Qing didn’t kneel, they didn’t. They imitated Su Qing and bowed deeply to the old Emperor.
“Greetings, Emperor.”
“No need to be polite.”
The corners of the old Emperor’s mouth twitched. Did the Great Xia Kingdom not need to kowtow to the Emperor?
Forget it. He was not the Emperor of their country. If they did not kowtow, so be it.
Madam Li had met Su Qing several times and intended to let the Emperor’s son marry her as a concubine but later found that Su Qing was not easy to get along with. She was too arrogant and cold and seemed to reject people thousands of miles away. Such a personality was not suitable for the Imperial Palace.
Although they couldn’t be a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Madam Li still greatly respected Su Qing. She stood up and greeted her with a smile, “Miss Su, how have you been?”
“Madam Li, I trust you have been well. Let me take your pulse.”
Su Qing bowed to her. As a doctor, the first thing she cared about when she saw her patient was her recovery.
“Alright.”
Madam Li was about to ask Su Qing to take her pulse, so she was naturally happy to take the initiative.
The old Emperor watched with interest as Su Qing treated Madam Li. Xiaoying and Luan Hong looked at Su Qing with admiration. Sister Su Qing was too amazing to treat the Emperor.
“Emperor, these two are Miss Su’s friends.”
Seeing that the Emperor did not give him a seat, Yeluchun reminded his father.
“Come and take a seat for the two ladies.”
Only then did the old Emperor shift his gaze to Xiaoying and Luan Hong. He found that the women of the Central Plains were all gorgeous, with bright and intelligent eyes and petite and cute figures. He also saw them standing there awkwardly, so he quickly ordered the eunuch to take them to their seats.
“The Empress is recovering well. 1’11 prescribe you another medicine to recuperate. You can stop taking the medicine after a month.”
After Su Qing checked Madam Li’s pulse, she asked the eunuch to bring her a pen and paper and began to write a prescription.
Her medical skills had improved, and she had entered the stage of seeing Qi.
She could see all the meridians in the human body and see where there was a disease. She could see the disease without taking the pulse.
It was even easier to write a prescription. After seeing the patient, the prescription appeared in her mind. What medicine did she need? The amount and measurement were precise and could be written down.
Luan Hong and Xiaoying sat behind the long table. A eunuch served them milk tea and pastries. It was their first time drinking milk tea, and they were not used to it. They took a sip and placed it on the table.
“Prepare the imperial meal to entertain Miss Su.”
The Emperor ordered the eunuchs to pass on the imperial food. The highest level of food that the Tartan Kingdom invited distinguished guests were roasted whole lamb. In addition, there were some ethnic delicacies of the Tartan Kingdom.
Su Qing did not stand on ceremony. It was her ability that made the Emperor treat her to a meal.
Yeluchun leaned against his father’s ear and said something. The old Emperor looked like he had suddenly realized something and looked at Su Qing. He couldn’t owe the divine doctor the consultation fee and ordered loudly,
“Someone come and reward Miss Su with a hundred taels of gold, ten horses, and a hundred fat sheep.”
The Emperor’s reward was generous. Usually, one would have to kneel to thank the Emperor for his reward, but Su Qing bowed deeply to express her gratitude.
The palace held the Blue Mountain Conference in the evening to entertain Su Qing and the others. Tartan loved wrestling, and the warriors of Tartan were all good wrestlers.
Xiaoying was very interested in watching, but she wasn’t too interested in the roast lamb leg. It wasn’t as delicious as Sister Su Qing’s cooking. It was more interesting to watch wrestling.
Luan Hong was just like Xiaoying. She was more open than Xiaoying. She was also excited and applauded from time to time.
Tonight, they were not drinking the horse milk wine of Tartan, but the Jian Nanchun and strong liquor brought by Su Qing. The old Emperor drank a bowl of strong liquor and slapped the table in praise.
“Good wine, delicious wine.”
“Please try Jian Nanchun again.”
Su Qing picked up the jar and poured wine for the old Emperor. The imperial court experts at the side looked at her warily. A eunuch came over with a silver needle to test the poison but was chased away by the old Emperor with a dark expression.
“Go away. There’s no need to test the divine doctor’s toast.”
This was a huge trust in Su Qing. After all, she was from the Great Xia Kingdom. What if she poisoned the wine?
The Emperor raised his glass and drank it in one gulp. Su Qing asked,
“Emperor, which jar of wine do you think is better?”
“This wine isn’t bad either. It’s soft and gentle, but 1 prefer that one. The men of the grasslands all like to drink strong liquor.”
The Emperor smacked his lips and pointed at the jar of strong wine. After drinking this wine, his blood felt warm, and his whole body felt comfortable.
“Alright then, I will increase the production of the strong wine. This wine has not been named yet; please give it a name.”
Su Qing saw that the old Emperor liked to drink strong liquor as she thought, so she asked the Emperor to give it a name. With the Emperor’s name, the wine would become famous in Tartan.
“Drunken Overlord.”
The old Emperor muttered to himself briefly before raising his head and saying a name to Su Qing.
“Drunken Overlord? Good, this name is too good. Thank you for the name, Emperor.”
Su Qing read the name and felt she liked it very much. Who wouldn’t want to taste a wine that could make even the Overlord drunk?
The old Emperor gave Su Qing a big gift. As long as Su Qing could brew it, he would ask for as much of the Drunken Overlord for the Tartan Kingdom. Su Qing’s wine market immediately opened up.
On this side, the Emperor hosted the Blue Mountain Meeting to entertain Su Qing. The wrestlers on the field tried their best to throw their opponents down. Su Qing also applauded with Xiaoying and the others. The bonfire lit up the night and turned it into the day.
The Empress’s bedchamber was even more desolate than the bustling Imperial Palace.
The Empress knelt in the temple hall, knocking on the wooden fish and chanting scriptures. The Second Prince circled in the temple hall like a trapped beast.
“Royal Mother, are you admitting defeat just like that? I heard the Imperial Palace is hosting a banquet for the divine doctor who cured the Emperor and Madam Li. It’s all because of this bullshit divine doctor that we failed at the last step. I swear I’m not human if I don’t take revenge.”
The Empress’s eyes, which had been tightly shut all this while, suddenly opened. Even after chanting Buddhist scriptures for so long, she could not suppress the viciousness in her heart.
She was about to reach the peak of power, but a small divine doctor ruined it. She naturally could not take this lying down.
“I wonder where that dog slave Ye Hechangsheng went? Find him; even if I must dig three feet into the ground, I must find him. As long as I find him, we can’t lose. I’ll let that b*tch Madam Li be complacent for a few days. When I return, it will be the death of both mother and son.”
The Empress threw the wooden fish down and stood up. She glanced at the merciful Bodhisattva and left the temple hall with a flick of her sleeves.
“Where’s that divine doctor? I heard that she was leaving tomorrow. Are you going to let her leave so easily?”
The Second Prince chased after the Empress from the temple hall. The Empress stopped and narrowed her sharp eyes slightly.
“Of course, I can’t let her leave just like that. She dared to ruin my plans, so she has to pay with her life..”
