The upright forensic doctor bumped into the drama prince

Ji Linglan pushed open the door of the private room and walked in. Seeing Mr. Zhang sitting in front of the window drinking tea, he hurriedly greeted him, "Alan has met Mr. Zhang."

Mr. Zhang put down his teacup, pointed to the seat opposite, and said, "Sit down."

Ji Linglan sat down as she said, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, I haven't seen you for a long time, but you are still in good spirits."

Mr. Zhang picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea for Ji Linglan, pushed it to his side, and asked bluntly, "What are you trying to lure me to this capital for?"

Ji Linglan thanked her, and then said: "Alan remembers that when you first met Mr. Zhang, you said that you would accept me as an apprentice, but there are two conditions: one is not to see a doctor with members of the royal family; the other is to help you find the missing Third Disciple. I don’t know if Ah Lan remembers correctly?”

Mr. Zhang nodded and said: "It is true. But now that you have become a guest of the royal family, you obviously do not meet the conditions for me to accept disciples."

"Mr. Zhang, what is your entanglement with the royal family? Why did you make such a request?"

"In the past three years, you have never asked, why are you asking now?"

After three years of getting along, Mr. Zhang can be considered to know Ji Linglan well. He is not a person who seeks power and covets wealth and status, and like him, he is very repulsive of the capital. Now he has not only come to the capital, but also works for the royal family, and even asked him about his entanglement with the royal family , really surprised him.

Ji Linglan replied honestly: "I want to save someone, and I need help, and the elder is the best candidate."

"You want to save someone from the royal family?" Elder Zhang understood Ji Linglan's purpose almost instantly.

"Yes, I want to save King Ling."

"Prince Ling?" Elder Zhang raised his eyebrows and said, "As far as I know, the entire imperial hospital is helpless with King Ling's illness. Do you have a solution?"

"Yes, change your mind."

"Change your heart?" A look of shock appeared in Zhang Lao's eyes, and then he said, "How to change?"

"Find a suitable heart and just put it in his body." It was too difficult to explain this kind of thing, Ji Linglan could only briefly summarize it.

In ancient times, things like 'changing hearts' were equivalent to witchcraft and sorcery. If it was spread, Ji Linglan might be caught by ignorant people and burned alive as a monster.But now he said it in front of him without any taboo, which was enough to prove his trust in him.

The displeasure in Zhang Lao's heart dissipated a bit, and said: "Since you have a solution, what do you want me to do?"

"It takes time for the heart to match, but the body of King Ling is declining day by day. I want Mr. Zhang to take care of his body as much as possible and prolong his life." Ji Linglan stated her purpose bluntly.

"There are so many imperial doctors in the imperial hospital, why did you find me?"

"Their medical skills are not as good as Mr. Zhang's, and they involve too much. I don't trust them."

The expected answer pleased Mr. Zhang. He picked up his teacup and took a sip of tea, saying, "You can't resolve the grievances between the old man and the royal family, so don't waste your efforts in vain."

Ji Linglan also knew that this was a bit difficult, but in order to get rid of Fu Nanling, he could only be selfish once, and begged: "Mr. Zhang, no matter what you ask, as long as you are willing to help me."

"There are folk rumors that King Ling has a perverted personality and is cruel and vicious. This kind of person is a disaster if he lives. Why does Ah Lan insist on saving King Ling?" Mrs. Zhang was very curious. , willing to be deeply involved in the dangerous whirlpool of the royal family.

"Mr. Zhang also said that those were rumors, and most of them were fabricated by people with ulterior motives. King Ling is not like that, and he has saved me more than once. The kindness of saving my life should be repaid by springs. I owe him this."

Mr. Zhang nodded and said: "Alan, it's not that I won't help you, it's just that I have an unresolved grievance with the royal family. I have sworn that I will never have anything to do with the Fu clan in this life, otherwise I will fall into hell forever. So Ah Lan should find someone else."

Ji Linglan asked unwillingly: "Is it really impossible to resolve?"

"If you want to resolve it, unless the Fu clan is extinct." Mr. Zhang said such rebellious words without hesitation, which shows how deep his hatred with the royal family is.

Ji Linglan looked at Mr. Zhang in shock, then took out a gold needle from his bosom and handed it to Mr. Zhang, and said with a wry smile, "Since that's the case, then I won't force others to do what they want."

Mr. Zhang took the gold needles, stroked them lightly with his fingers, and said: "This set of gold needles is left by the master who taught me medical skills. To me, it is not just an object, but also a thought." .”

Ji Linglan said apologetically: "Old Zhang, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done such a thing for my own selfish desires, please don't blame Mr. Zhang."

Old Zhang put away the golden needle carefully, and said: "For the sake of saving people, I don't care about you."

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang." Ji Linglan pondered for a while, and said, "Mr. Zhang, I don't know the name of your missing apprentice, how old is this year, and what are the characteristics of his appearance?"

"What are you asking about this?"

"I just want to help Mr. Zhang find someone, and it can be regarded as repaying Mr. Zhang for his teaching and care over the past three years."

"No need. You will borrow the power of the royal family to help the old man, which is not what the old man wants."

Ji Linglan couldn't help but smiled wryly, and said, "Mr. Zhang, if I say that I want to help you on my own, don't you believe me?"

Mr. Zhang looked at Ji Linglan silently for a while, and said, "His name is Zhang Nansheng. He is 24 years old this year. He has phoenix eyes, a mole on the corner of his mouth, and a burnt scar on his wrist the size of a dollar."

Ji Linglan frowned slightly, and said, "How did he disappear?"

Hearing this, Mr. Zhang sighed, and said, "Seven years ago, he suddenly left without saying goodbye, and there has been no news of him so far."

"That old man, do you know where his ancestral home is? Who else is in the family?"

"I'm ashamed to say that I don't know where his ancestral home is, and I don't know much about the situation in his family. It was a coincidence that he was accepted as a disciple at that time." Mr. Zhang paused, and then said: "Ten years ago, this old man passed by Lancheng. He had a high fever and fell ill by the side of the road. It was the old man who rescued him. He had a fever for three days, and finally the fever subsided. When he woke up, he had no memory. Seeing that he was homeless, the old man took him in. The name Zhang Nansheng was given to him by the old man. Later, when we got along, he found that he was quite talented in studying medicine, so he moved his mind to accept him as an apprentice, but four years later, on the Mid-Autumn Festival, he suddenly left without saying goodbye, and since then There was no news."

"So that's it." Ji Linglan nodded, and said: "Mr. Zhang, don't worry, I won't rely on the power of the palace. If I really encounter it one day, I will definitely notify you as soon as possible."

Mr. Zhang smiled noncommittally, obviously he didn't take Ji Linglan's words to heart.He has been looking for someone for seven years, but he still can't find it. He really doesn't believe that it was just a coincidence that Ji Linglan happened to meet him.He looked out of the window and said with emotion: "Kyoto is still so prosperous, I haven't set foot here for ten years."

"If Mr. Zhang doesn't give up, Ah Lan is willing to accompany you around."

Mr. Zhang pondered for a while, and said, "That's fine. If you come here, you'll be safe, and then go around."

The two got up one after another, walked out of the private room, greeted Lu Jiu and Qiao Ming, and left the teahouse together.Although Mr. Zhang said that he hadn't been to Kyoto for ten years, he was very familiar with the streets of Kyoto. He had always been the one leading the way, and Ji Linglan and the three of them were earnest companions.

Looking at the nostalgia in Zhang Lao's eyes, Ji Linglan knew in her heart that the places they walked must be places that Zhang Lao was familiar with and even stayed.Especially when passing by Prince Ping's Mansion, although he only paused for a moment, Ji Linglan could see the difference from his expression.

The four of them stopped shopping until the evening, and Mr. Zhang said with a smile, "I'm tired after shopping for a whole day, so I'll go to Guangxian Tower to sit down and have a dinner."

"Success, I'll listen to you." Naturally, Ji Linglan had no objection, but she was a little worried about Fu Nanling.

The four of them went to Guangxian Tower together, asked for a private room, and invited the waiter to order food.The food came to the table quickly, Qiao Ming and Lu Jiu sat quietly to eat, while Ji Linglan and Mr. Zhang were chatting casually.After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, when they were almost done eating, they heard the door of the private room knocked. Qiao Ming stood up and opened the door neatly, only to see Li Sheng, the housekeeper of the Mausoleum Palace, standing at the door.

Ji Linglan was startled, and then said, "Butler Li, is the prince looking for me?"

Li Sheng glanced at the people on the table, came up to him, bowed and said, "My lord, the prince has been looking for you for a long time, and he hasn't eaten or taken any medicine yet."

Ji Linglan frowned, and said displeasedly: "Go back and tell the lord, I have something to go back later, if he hasn't eaten or drunk medicine when he goes back, then I won't care about it in the future."

Li Sheng looked at Ji Linglan with some embarrassment, and said, "When does the young master plan to go back?"

"It's impossible to tell."

Li Sheng looked at Lu Jiu for help.

Lu Jiu said aloud: "You go back, just tell the truth."

"I hope you will go back soon." Seeing this, Li Sheng had no choice but to resign.

Mr. Zhang looked at Ji Linglan and then at Lu Jiu, the surprise in his eyes flashed away, and he said with a smile: "Ah Lan, I'm running out of time, so go back when it's time, the old man is tired, find an inn to rest After one night, we will go back tomorrow.”

Ji Linglan was unhappy because Fu Nanling didn't care about his body. He begged his grandpa to sue his grandma outside, but Fu Nanling used his body to play with him as a child. Anyone who heard this would feel uncomfortable.

Ji Linglan smiled and said: "There is no rush, I will return to the palace after sending Mr. Zhang to the inn."

"Today, you can accompany this old man to visit the capital. It's considered intentional. Opposite this restaurant is the inn. Besides, there is Qiao Ming beside this old man. Don't worry."

"Mr. Zhang also said that the inn is just across the street. It's not too late. You took care of me in Yongning Town for three years, and I just reciprocated for a day. It's nothing. Let's go there together. After I check in for you, I will go back."

Seeing Ji Linglan's insistence, Mr. Zhang didn't say anything, and the four got up together and left the private room.Ji Linglan took the initiative to go to the counter to pay the bill, but Mr. Zhang didn't stop him, and then they went to the inn opposite and asked for a room, but Ji Linglan still paid the bill.

"Mr. Zhang, you should go back to your room and have a rest. Ah Lan is going back now."

"Alan wait a moment." Zhang Lao looked at Qiao Ming and said, "Bring the package."

Qiao Ming was startled, then took off the package from his shoulder and handed it to Mr. Zhang.

Mr. Zhang took out a book from the package, handed it to Ji Linglan, and said, "This book is for you, how much you can learn depends on your luck."

Ji Linglan took it in a daze, and opened it to see that not only the meridian diagram was drawn on it, but also densely packed with small characters, it was clearly Mr. Zhang's medical notes.

"Old Zhang, this is..."

"This is just a thank you gift for spending the day with the old man."

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang, Ah Lan is very grateful!"

"Okay, you go, if you have time, you can often go back to Yongning Hall."

"Okay, Ah Lan must remember."

Ji Linglan didn't say any more, and walked out of the inn with Lu Jiu, while Mr. Zhang and Qiao Ming came down to the guest room led by the waiter.

After closing the door, Qiao Ming asked inexplicably, "The shopkeeper, he is entangled with members of the royal family, why do you still help him?"

Mr. Zhang sighed, and said: "It is the duty of a doctor to cure diseases and save people, but this old man is burdened with blood and deep hatred, so he is doomed not to be a qualified doctor, but Ah Lan is different. He has a pure heart and is a natural doctor. He can be regarded as making up for the regret of the old man."

"The shopkeeper's revenge?"

Mr. Zhang was silent for a while, and said: "It's almost time. In a few days, the old man's revenge will be avenged. As for the others, let's forget it. The world still needs the support of the Fu family."

"Then should our people withdraw?"

"Continue to lurk, maybe someday they will be used."

"Yes, shopkeeper."

Half an hour later, Ji Linglan and Lu Jiu returned to the palace. Before he could return to his courtyard, they were blocked by Xiao Lizi.He bowed and said, "My lord, the master has an invitation."

Ji Linglan hesitated for a moment, and said, "Is he in the Green Bamboo Garden?"

"Yes, master just finished dinner."

Ji Linglan looked at the book in her hand and said, "Wait for me to put down my things, and I'll be there in a while."

"My lord, my master has been looking for you for a long time..."

"I said, after I put down my things, it will pass in a while, don't you understand?" The atmosphere in the palace made Ji Linglan feel more and more uncomfortable.

Xiao Lizi was stunned, and then said: "Yes, this slave talks too much, please forgive me, my lord."

Ji Linglan didn't speak any more, walked around Xiao Lizi and walked straight towards Minghui Garden.

Lu Jiusan followed Ji Linglan in two steps, and asked with concern: "Is there something on your mind?"

Ji Linglan's personality has always been gentle, and he always greets people with a smile. It's rare to see him so impatient.

Ji Linglan was silent for a while, and said: "Brother Lu, the life in the palace makes me feel more and more uncomfortable. I feel like a bird in a cage. Although I have no worries about food and clothing, I have no freedom."

Lu Jiu explained for Fu Nanling: "Ah Lan, the reason why master is like this today is because Pang Li passed the house and he was unable to accompany you to eat. I was afraid that you might misunderstand, so after Pang Li left, someone came to look for you. .”

Ji Linglan looked at Lu Jiu and smiled, and said, "I know all of this, Brother Lu doesn't need to explain."

This palace is not his home after all, and the people here are separated from him after all, he should have understood earlier.

Ji Linglan stopped talking and went straight back to Minghui Garden.

"Brother (treasurer), you are back."

Ji Xinchen and Liu Lian were sitting in the yard playing chess, when they saw him come back, they greeted him quickly.

"I'm back. Are you playing chess?" Ji Linglan walked over and asked with a smile, "Who loses and who wins?"

Ji Xinchen replied: "Of course Lian'er won, I'm just a bad chess player, and it's not that the shopkeeper doesn't know."

"Then let Lian'er teach you well."

"Forget it, I'm stupid, I can't learn these twists and turns. How about the shopkeeper and Lian'er play a game?"

"No, you guys go down, I have something else to do." Ji Linglan turned to look at Lu Jiu and said, "Brother Lu, you have already returned to the palace, so you can go back and rest, and don't follow me anymore."

Lu Jiu nodded and said, "Okay."

Ji Linglan went straight back to the bedroom, and put Mr. Zhang's medical notes on the bedside, and he planned to study them carefully when he came back.

Footsteps sounded, and Ji Linglan looked in the direction of the door, only to see Fu Nanling entering the door with the support of Xiao Lizi.An irritability surged in his heart.

"Xiao Lizi, didn't I say that after I put down my things, I will go to the Green Bamboo Garden? Is it because I didn't say it clearly enough, or do you really not understand?"

Fu Nanling was startled, and quickly explained: "Alan, Xiao Lizi said it, it's just..."

"Enough!" Ji Linglan interrupted Fu Nanling, and said, "What's the condition of your body now? You don't know what's going on in your mind? Every day I try my best to think about how to cure your illness, but you Time and time again, you don't take your body seriously. Fu Nanling, how can you be so self-willed? If you really don't want this life, I'll just ignore it from now on."

"Alan, I was wrong, don't be angry, I'll just go to bed and lie down obediently, don't ignore me." Fu Nanling looked at Ji Linglan pitifully, and tightly grabbed his sleeve with his fingers.

Little Lizi bowed and said, "My lord, it's the slave's fault. The slave failed to take good care of the master, so I ask you to punish me."

The more they were like this, the more irritable Ji Linglan became. He tried his best to suppress the turbulent emotions in his heart, and said as calmly as possible: "I'll go outside to get some air, and my lord will go to bed and lie down."

"Alan..." Fu Nanling saw Ji Linglan's face was ugly, so he wisely didn't bother her any more, obediently let go, and said, "Okay, I'll go to bed and lie down."

Ji Linglan walked out of the room, seeing Ji Xinchen and Liu Lian looking over, she walked over and said, "Lian'er, play chess with me."

"Okay." Liu Lian nodded obediently.

Ji Xinchen quickly gave up his seat and said, "Shopkeeper, sit here."

Returning all the chess pieces, Ji Linglan casually grabbed a handful of white chess pieces in the chess box, and as Liu Lian's black pieces fell, so did the white pieces.Ji Linglan, who didn't know anything about Go at first, learned from Fu Nanling for a while, and she was able to play it well, but now her mind is restless, and her chess is messed up, and she lost after a while.

Seeing that Liu Lian hadn't made the last chess piece, Ji Linglan looked up at him and asked, "Why didn't you make it?"

Liu Lian hesitated for a moment, and said, "Brother, your heart is not calm, and I won because I won't win by force."

"Are you afraid to play, or do you not want to play?" Ji Linglan asked sharply.

Liu Lian's face turned pale, and he lowered his head a little uneasy.

Looking at Liu Lian, Ji Linglan finally understood where his irritability came from. It was all because of his sensitivity and self-esteem.

"Lian'er, I said that you are my younger brother, and we are a family. Don't say that these are just for fun and entertainment. Even if you encounter serious business, you have the right to speak. You can fight for what you want."

Liu Lian raised her head to look at Ji Linglan, summoned up her courage and said, "Brother, did something not go your way today?"

Ji Linglan nodded, and said: "I really hit a wall. The plan was disrupted, and I need to re-plan, but it takes time, and the most lacking thing now is time."

Fu Nanling's physical condition is already very bad, and no one knows whether he can survive the next attack, but it takes time to learn acupuncture, and what Fu Nanling lacks most is time.But he still tosses so willfully, which is why Ji Linglan rarely gets angry.

"Brother, what can I do to help?"

"Practice hard and study hard. If I get lazy in the future, I will need you to support me."

Liu Lian nodded emphatically, and said, "Brother, I will definitely study hard, and I will gain fame in the future and be my brother's support."

Ji Linglan's heart warmed up, her irritability eased a little, and she said, "Come on, this game doesn't count, let's move on."

Fu Nanling sat on the bedside, holding Zhang Lao's medical notes in his hand, opened it and read it, and said, "I have never seen this book before."

Xiao Lizi took a look, and said: "The young master was holding this book in his hand when he returned home."

Fu Nanling then asked: "Who did he meet today?"

Xiao Lizi replied truthfully: "I heard from Mr. Lu that he is an old doctor in Yongning Town."

"Xiao Lizi, he is really trying to find a way to cure my illness." Fu Nanling's grievances were gone, and the corner of his mouth curled up into a smile, and said: "Just now I was so angry, it's because I don't take care of my body, he really cares about me .”

"Young Master's heart is clean, and you have always treated Master sincerely. Master, for the sake of Young Master, you have to pay special attention to your own body. Only when you are healthy, Young Master can be blessed."

Fu Nanling glanced at him and said, "You have learned how to handle me now."

"The slave dare not, the master forgives the sin."

"You, you say you don't dare, but you still do what you should do, relying on him to support you."

"That's also because the son really loves the master."

"Love..." Fu Nanling looked down at the book in his hand, and murmured, "Maybe..."

Ji Linglan and Liu Lian played three games of chess in a row, but only won one game. He was surprised to find that Liu Lian was really talented in this area. At a young age, he was thoughtful and well-organized. If he was not so weak in character , the future will surely be extraordinary.

Ji Linglan couldn't help but praised: "Lian'er, you are really good at playing chess. Given time, you might become a master of the generation."

Liu Lian smiled shyly, and said: "When I was young, my father taught me to play chess. He said that life is like chess, one wrong move, one wrong step, so you have to think twice about every move you take."

Seeing the sad look on Liu Lian's face, Ji Linglan patted the back of Liu Lian's hand and said, "Lian'er will definitely be able to make some achievements like Master Liu in the future."

"Well, I will try my best!"

Ji Linglan nodded, stood up and stretched her limbs, and said: "It's getting late, you should also get some water to wash and sleep."

"That brother also rest early."

Ji Linglan responded, turned around and walked towards the main room. Seeing him coming in, Xiao Lizi bowed and walked out the door.

Fu Nanling looked at Ji Linglan and said flatteringly, "Alan, I just lay down obediently and didn't get out of bed."

"Yeah." Ji Linglan came to the table and sat down, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea, took a sip, and said, "Go to bed first, I'll go to the study for a while to read."

Fu Nanling's long and narrow phoenix eyes looked at Ji Linglan pitifully, and said: "Alan, I was wrong, I promise I will be obedient in the future, don't be angry, okay?"

"How can I not be angry?" Feeling the anger rising again, Ji Linglan took a deep breath, suppressed the turbulent emotions, and said: "I'm going to the study, you go to bed first."

Ji Linglan came to the bed, leaned over to get the medical books, but was hugged by Fu Nanling.

"Alan, I was wrong. You can beat me and scold me, but you are not allowed to avoid me."

Ji Linglan pushed Fu Nanling and said, "Let go."

Fu Nanling tightened his arms, and said roguely, "I won't let you go, I won't let you go even if you beat me to death!"

"Who just said that he must be obedient? Doesn't the effort in a blink of an eye count?"

"I can listen to everything else, but you can't hide from me." Fu Nanling looked up at Ji Linglan and said, "Alan, do you know how I feel when I haven't seen you for half a day? I thought you misunderstood , thinking that you didn't want me anymore, I panicked a lot, if you don't come back again, I... I will really go to find you desperately."

Ji Linglan's heart softened when she heard the words, but said angrily: "I'm so stupid in your heart, I can't even figure out this matter, and I misunderstand it every now and then?"

"No, Ah Lan is the smartest! I'm just afraid, the more I love, the more afraid I am."

Ji Linglan's heart tightened, she sighed silently, and said, "This is not an example."
