Chapter 18 Homecoming
Lian Xiao gave the eldest princess a gift again and thought to himself: I must have kept me as a personal imperial physician? I have worked hard for so long, and after several calculations and repeated troubles, isn’t it just for this?
Lian Xiao, who returned to his room, was in a good mood. If the eldest princess had the best, his heart would be much more relaxed. Once a person relaxed, he would relax like a tight thread. He lay on the bed and fell asleep.
Although the situation he faces cannot be underestimated by him, he cannot be nervous for twelve hours a day. If that happens, the situation may not be accomplished and the person will die first.
The next morning, before Lian Xiao woke up, he was awakened by the voice of another father-in-law from outside.
"The imperial edict arrives, and the owls meet the edict."
Lian Xiao turned over and got off the bed, rolled and crawled, looking for clothes to start wearing.
After quickly putting it on, Lian Xiao cleaned his hair again and felt that he could see someone. He opened the door and the father-in-law outside was waiting for him.
"Tail my father-in-law!" Lian Xiao said, and he saw Eunuch Zhao next to the emperor.
Eunuch Zhao opened the imperial edict and read it: "In accordance with the will of heaven, the emperor ordered that Lian Xiao was both medical ethics, so I issued an order to grant Lian Xiao the personal imperial physician of the Great Princess and the official position was the fifth rank. I hope that my beloved will do my best to nourish the body and mind for the Great Princess in the future, so that my beloved daughter can be healthy and happy! I will be rewarded with many rewards. I admire this!"
"I thank you for your kindness!"
Overnight, Lian Xiao changed from a grass-roots to a minister, and he also obtained the highest rank among imperial physicians.
While handing the imperial edict to Lian Xiao, Eunuch Zhao said to Lian Xiao with a smile in his yin and yang disorganized voice, "Congratulations to Lord Lian, Mr. Xilian, those who have been promoted from common people to the fifth rank of official rank like you, we have never met many people in our family in the palace for their whole life. Lord Lian is really lucky."
Lian Xiao hurriedly said, "My father-in-law is right, I meet a noble person, the emperor is the noble person, and the eldest princess is also the noble person, and I am very grateful."
"Well! Look, I'm still a talkative master. In the future, in the Imperial Hospital, you can walk sideways. You don't need to know what medicine you need, because he competes for half a lifetime and is only a fifth-rank official rank. You are on an equal footing with him now, hahahaha!"
After saying this, Eunuch Zhao left.
"Send me respectfully to my father-in-law!"
Lian Xiao looked at the imperial edict in his hand, and his brief happiness had passed. At this moment, he felt that the imperial edict was a bit heavy: I succeeded in the first step and the second step, it was better to take down the Imperial Hospital and invite my master back to take charge of the Imperial Hospital. In that case, my master and apprentice acted in the Imperial Hospital. It would be easier to achieve the master's purpose and repay the master's debt. Then I could do my best to investigate the murderer who killed my parents back then.
Lian Xiao was promoted to the fifth-rank medical officer, and this happy event must have been passed down to Baitou Weng's mansion. The doctor's mansion was decorated with lights and grooms, and the guests were all here to flatter and flatter.
Baitou Weng sent someone to send a message to Lian Xiao, asking him to go back tonight. He is the protagonist. If he is not present, it will be a refutation of Baitou Weng's face. What's more, in addition to having something to say to Baitou Weng, he also wants to go back to meet his gentle junior sister.
This time when Lian Xiao returned to his residence, the whole mansion came out respectfully to greet him.
The white-headed man smiled so much that he expressed his words, and reached out to salute with kindness, "Greetings to Lord Lian."
The white-headed man took the lead in bowing to Lian Xiao, and everyone behind him could only bow.
Lian Xiao hurriedly walked up to support Baitou Weng, "Master, you have killed me. Without a master, how could I be like Lian Xiao do today."
Lian Xiao said this from the bottom of his heart. No matter how the relationship between him and Baitou Weng was established, after all, Baitou Weng raised Lian Xiao and cultivated him into talents. These are kindnesses that Lian Xiao cannot deny and must be returned with kindness.
The white-headed man smiled with relief and said, "It's your best to be your teacher. Your achievements today prove that I'm not wrong."
The white-headed man said red in his eyes. This feeling is full of love and filial piety.
Everyone walked into the main house together, and there were already many guests waiting. When they saw Lian Xiao one by one, regardless of whether it was true or false, they would all congratulate you anyway, and a few flatteries.
Even Xiao didn't put on airs. After responding one by one, he returned to their master and apprentice table.
The junior sister Bai Ruxue was also at this table, and the two couldn't help but look back and forth with affection.
Although Lian Xiao was restrained, emotional matters sometimes flowed out in control between words and actions, so it was not difficult for others to see.
The senior brothers were also very active, congratulations to Lian Xiao one by one, and toast to Lian Xiao.
After three rounds of drinking, he saw that the guests left one by one, and their master and apprentice had almost finished eating and drinking at the table. A senior brother named Wenjun looked 70% drunk. He walked to Lian Xiao and took the initiative to add another glass of wine to Lian Xiao.
"Fifth Junior Brother, Third Junior Brother, I will give you this last glass of wine. I wish you success in the future, great success, and great achievements. At that time, don't forget our brothers."
Baitou Weng smiled and said, "Wenjun, don't worry, Lian Xiao is not that kind of person, otherwise he will refuse to come back tonight."
Because of Baitou Weng's interruption, Wenjun put down the wine again.
"Yes, yes, I even Junior Brother Xiao is the most conscientious person, otherwise the master and junior sister would not like him either. Come on, I will give you this glass of wine first."
After saying a few words of a little sourness, Senior Brother Wenjun looked at Bai Ruxue meaningfully, then picked up the wine glass and raised the wine in his hand.
Out of politeness, Lian Xiao also made this cup.
Afterwards, everyone left the dining table, and some people suggested that the brothers and brothers sit in the courtyard, so that they could talk about the past, talk about medical skills, and recite poems in an arty manner.
However, what everyone did not expect was that just as everyone was walking leisurely and laughing, Lian Xiao's feet suddenly became soft and his body shook twice. It happened that Bai Ruxue was next to him and hugged him, otherwise he would fall.
"Senior brother, what's wrong with you?" Bai Ruxue asked worriedly.
Lian Xiao stabilized his mind and body, breathing a little, "Maybe because he drank too much alcohol, had stomachache, and his heartbeat was so fast..."
"Ah! Senior brother, why is the corner of your mouth bleeding? Ah..."
While Bai Ruxue was shouting, Lian Xiao had already collapsed on the ground.
Many of the senior brothers ran over to see him with a look of worry. Although they didn't know which one was really worried or which one was fake, there was only one. He stood far away and never came over.
Lian Xiao's face was pale, his eyes were a little confused, and he looked at the senior brother in disbelief.
