Chapter Eighty-Two The Grand Onmyoji
“We have heard that the medical skills of Linfeng Kingdom are renowned throughout the world. This time, our Yuntang Kingdom has come to visit, hoping to witness them firsthand.”
Gu Yu stood in the grand hall, thinking that this time was not bad, as he was not made to stand in the open.
However, as Gu Yu looked at the person speaking, although they praised Linfeng Kingdom’s medical skills, their eyes held a proud expression, clearly not meaning what they said.
In response, Gu Yu felt it was necessary to teach the other party a lesson.
To dare to act so arrogantly in front of him was like showing off to a master craftsman. He would immediately slap the guy’s face.
“Envoy Jin Jun, all guests are welcome. Linfeng Kingdom will naturally find a way to fulfill your request!”
“Thank you, Empress! I believe the doctors of Linfeng Kingdom will not be of too low a standard and will surely impress us.”
This time, the Yuntang Kingdom envoy was not as arrogant as the Dongbang Kingdom envoy. However, despite appearing humble, the sarcastic tone alone made people even more uncomfortable!
It was the kind of person who wanted to harm you, but not openly; they had to do it secretly behind your back.
Gu Yu had no good impression of such people. He just wanted to start quickly, finish, and then go back to bed and sleep soundly.
He missed his comfortable bed…
While Gu Yu was thinking about lying comfortably in bed, the imperial doctors who had been waiting in the hall began to whisper amongst themselves, not paying attention to the Yuntang Kingdom envoy in front of them. Instead, they kept peeking at Gu Yu.
They looked at him as if he were a rare animal, their excited expressions showing on their faces. This caused the Yuntang Kingdom envoy standing opposite to snort coldly, thinking that Linfeng Kingdom, such a small country, was truly weak!
They had only praised them a few words, and they were already so excited. It was truly seeing a mountain and thinking it a molehill!
Perhaps they hadn’t received any compliments for a long time!
How pathetic and sad!
Just as the Yuntang Kingdom envoy was thinking this, there was whispering in the line of imperial doctors on the other side.
“Is that him? The one named Gu Yu. He doesn’t look very old!”
“Alas, I thought the same thing at first, but he directly treated those injured Imperial Guards!”
“I was there at the time, so I know how badly the Imperial Guards were injured. But when they came to the Imperial Hospital for examination today, they were all fully recovered!”
“What? All recovered!”
“It’s absolutely true. This shows that Gu Yu’s medical skills are truly amazing!”
As the imperial doctors spoke, their gazes couldn’t help but sneak towards Gu Yu, wanting to see who this young man with extraordinary medical skills was!
As a result, apart from having a feminine appearance and being very beautiful, there were no other abnormalities.
Could it be that one must be good-looking to have such great medical skills?
Or perhaps Gu Yu was a medical genius!
After much consideration, the latter explanation was more convincing… Gu Yu was a genius!
“Since Her Majesty the Empress has spoken, allow me to begin. On the way to Linfeng Kingdom, I encountered a patient with a strange illness. I tried to treat him out of curiosity but failed, so I brought him along to the capital. I wonder if the imperial doctors can successfully treat him.”
As he spoke, Jin Jun clapped his hands, and then brought out a toddler with a flushed face from the Yuntang Kingdom delegation. The toddler, with weak steps, was propped up and brought before everyone, causing the faces of the imperial doctors present to darken.
Although they knew the Yuntang Kingdom envoy was here with ill intentions, bringing a patient into the palace was a serious matter. What if it was an infectious disease and it spread within the palace!
Thus, Imperial Doctor Wang, who had spoken with Gu Yu earlier, immediately said to Jin Jun in a displeased tone.
“Envoy Jin Jun, although I know you are eager to see how good Linfeng Kingdom’s medical skills are, you cannot arbitrarily bring a patient into the palace. If you disturb Her Majesty the Empress, what crime should you be punished for!”
“This imperial doctor, because I saw the young child suffering from the illness before, although I am not from Linfeng Kingdom, I also felt great pity for him, which is why I brought him to the palace. Perhaps there is a chance for treatment! After all, we did not bring any skilled doctors with us this time and could not cure this child.”
“Even so, you cannot act so disrespectfully!”
“Alas, if the most skilled doctor from Yuntang Kingdom had accompanied us, we wouldn’t have to bring the patient into the palace. We could have treated him directly and spared this young child from further suffering.”
“…”
Alright, it was confirmed.
It was exactly as he had initially thought…
Gu Yu listened to this Yuntang Kingdom envoy named Jin Jun speak with a sarcastic tone, and had already confirmed that he was the Grand Onmyoji!
First, praise Linfeng Kingdom, then step on them. This is the first step of being an “yin-yang person”!
Next, after Linfeng Kingdom fails to cure this toddler, he will proceed to the second step of being an “yin-yang person.”
Finally, when everyone is at a loss, it will be the final step of being an “yin-yang person”…
“Imperial Doctor Wang, there is no need to say more. I am fine. Let us treat this young child’s illness as soon as possible!”
“Your Majesty is benevolent and compassionate, truly a blessing to Linfeng Kingdom!”
Immediately after, Bai Qian, instead of watching Imperial Doctor Wang and Jin Jun argue, directly spoke, declaring that treating the child quickly was the main priority.
Due to being a mother, perhaps, seeing the child so ill, even the hard-hearted Bai Qian could not bear to see it.
If it can be treated now, then let’s treat it!
When Jin Jun heard Bai Qian’s words, he could not hide his triumphant expression. He then looked at the imperial doctors of Linfeng Kingdom who were walking towards them with gloomy faces, feeling extremely pleased.
These imperial doctors, however proud they were now, would be equally dejected later.
After all, this sick toddler was carefully chosen by them!
If he were easily cured, wouldn’t all their efforts be in vain!
For this trip to Linfeng Kingdom, Jin Jun, as the envoy dispatched by Yuntang Kingdom, had naturally made thorough preparations.
He had to make Linfeng Kingdom lose face!
However, as a country whose state affairs were controlled by women, it had clearly already lost all face!
This time, Yuntang Kingdom had merely come to add insult to injury.
Seeing the Dongbang Kingdom envoys from before return with bruised and swollen faces, Jin Jun also felt immense disdain, thinking that the people of Dongbang Kingdom were just like that, completely lacking in thought. No wonder they were all short as mice.
They were nothing like the people of Yuntang Kingdom, who were tall and handsome, and quick-witted!
Without shedding a drop of blood, they could make Linfeng Kingdom lose face.
He was truly looking forward to it. He wondered what wonderful expressions the imperial doctors of Linfeng Kingdom would wear when they could not treat this toddler!
“Imperial Doctor Wang, if I were you, I would not rashly approach this little boy.”
However, as a group of imperial doctors hurried towards Jin Jun, a lazy voice suddenly sounded.
