My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare! Chapter 353 - 228 All is Ready【5700】2

The two current Pri Ministers of the Taichang Si, one was Li Nuo's old friend, Liu Shang.

The other was his second uncle, Song Lian.

To take action against the Imperial Hospital, there was even no need for the Ministry of Justice or the Spiegel Bureau to step in.

Imperial Hospital.

Compared to other departnts of the court, the Imperial Hospital mainly served the Imperial Family. Although it didn't have much power, there were also not many daily matters.

His Majesty, in these years, indulged in the pursuit of longevity, becoming more youthful as ti passed and remained robust, rarely requiring the services of an Imperial Physician.

The concubines of the harem were attended by their special female doctors; thus, the Imperial Physicians of the Imperial Hospital led idle lives.

Apart from delving into dical arts, they spent their days in the Imperial Hospital drinking tea, playing chess, arriving at the governnt office punctually, and leaving on ti—a rather joyful existence.

The two Imperial Doctor Orders within the Imperial Hospital were leisurely enjoying tea and chess in a certain room.

Inside other rooms of duty, so were lying down asleep, while so rooms were outright empty.

The court had actually cracked down on discipline a few days earlier.

The officials of other governnt offices obediently did not dare to arrive late or leave early, yet no one paid any attention to the Imperial Hospital.

In the eyes of many, the Imperial Hospital didn't even seem like a part of the court's bureaucracy.

Their lack of attention was just fine with them, as they enjoyed their leisure.

While the two Imperial Doctor Orders were playing chess, one of them lifted his head and suddenly noticed an additional figure across from him. After a mont of astonishnt, he imdiately stood up and said, "Lord Liu, what brings you here? Are you feeling unwell?"

The Imperial Hospital was under the jurisdiction of the Taichang Si, and the Pri Minister had the power to adjudicate matters of the temple, making him their direct superior.

However, as the Imperial Hospital was the least noticeable departnt of the Taichang Si, visits were uncommon unless they were seeking dical treatnt.

Liu Shang found a chair to sit down and said, "Lately, I've indeed been feeling unwell, often experiencing soreness in my back and knees, ringing in my ears, dizziness, and losing more hair than usual..."

The two Imperial Doctor Orders, with decades of dical experience, took one look at Lord Liu and knew that his symptoms were the result of excessive indulgence, leading to deficiency of kidney yang.

However, to save his face, Doctor Liu still took his pulse, pondered for a mont, and said, "Pri Minister, you have been overexerting yourself. Allow to prescribe a formula for you. If you adhere to it, within seven days, you will surely regain your vigor, standing tall and firm..."

"Very good, very good..."

Liu Shang was overjoyed, tucking the kidney-strengthening prescription into his bosom. Then his tone suddenly shifted as he said, "The officials of your Imperial Hospital are quite lax, aren't they? At work ti, so play chess, so sleep. Of the four dical Supervisors, only one has shown up; of the eight dical Directors, only three are on duty... No wonder soone reported you for dereliction of duty. With this sort of attitude on the job, do you collect your salaries with peace of mind?"

The rapid turnaround by the Pri Minister left both n stunned.

After coming to their senses, they were filled with speechlessness.

Who was the ddleso person who reported the Imperial Hospital? Wasn't the tranquility of the Imperial Hospital a good thing?

Surely the Imperial Hospital being busy was not the better scenario!

However, such reasoning was naturally non-debatable with the Pri Minister, and they could only bow their heads and humbly accept the scolding.

Liu Shang, with a stern face, said, "Summon all staff who are absent and bring them back. Everyone in the Imperial Hospital, including you two, will reflect at the Ministry of Justice for one day as a disciplinary action..."

"Yes."

The two helplessly nodded.

They wondered which malicious person had made such a secret report. It was fortunate that it was only a day of reflection without a salary cut or suspension.

However, with such strict demands from Lord Liu, it seed that their carefree days were coming to an end.

As the Imperial Hospital gathered all the absent staff mbers and Liu Shang escorted them to the Ministry of Justice for detention and reflection, Li Nuo, who was teaching Yiren swordplay back at the Li Mansion, suddenly let go of her hand and said, "Practice by yourself for a while; I have so matters to attend to..."

The zealous mber of the public who reported the Imperial Hospital for neglect of duty was naturally him.

All he needed to do was to inform Liu Shang that he needed to take so officials for cultivation purposes, and Liu Shang would know what to do.

Any official of the court, if there was a will to find fault with them, could always find sothing. Although such minor issues contributed little to cultivation, Li Nuo wasn't primarily concerned with cultivation, to begin with.

He returned to his room, took out a piece of paper, and swiftly sketched a drawing of a woman's body.

The diagram showed the front and back of a woman's body, and although she was unclothed, Li Nuo's mind was void of other thoughts. What he saw were various acupoints and ridians.

Until just now, he hadn't quite understood these Internal Cultivation thods.

With many pieces of dical knowledge about acupoints and ridians now in his mind, his view of these thods felt completely different.

True Qi passed through the acupoints; whether it was Yin or Yang, cold or warm, or attribute-less, depended on the properties of the acupoints. Martial Artists, when creating Cultivation Techniques, utilized theories of acupoints and ridians from the dical School.

Reviewing the ridian map of the Yuqing Heart Technique again, he found the paths taken were those acupoints with utmost Yin and extre cold attributes.

Among these acupoints, several were, in the theories of the dical School, closely related to emotions.

These acupoints, when continuously subjected to the utmost Yin and extre cold True Qi, made her emotions seem as if they were sealed away.

From the dical School's perspective, if certain crucial acupoints in the lower abdon were continuously stimulated by cold influences, chronic coldness in the womb would naturally make pregnancy impossible.

From this, he inferred that if a woman practiced Cultivation Techniques with a Yin Cold Attribute and True Qi flowed through these acupoints, it was highly implausible for her to conceive later in life.

Li Nuo flipped through several Cultivation Techniques, and indeed, for those with a Yin Cold Attribute and True Qi passing near these acupoints, a caution was ntioned at the beginning: Any woman practicing these techniques would not be able to bear offspring.
