Chapter 1003: This Person Is Handsome and Cool
Editor: Henyee Translations
The Fortune Teahouse was filled with people. The private rooms upstairs were all full, and the lobby downstairs was filled with people sitting or standing.
Even the windowsill at the door was filled with people. Everyone was listening to the story.
It was really because the publicity this time was especially awesome. It was not only because of the shocking title, but also because Prefecture Magistrate Dai had gotten someone to secretly promote it.
Hence, Fortune Teahouse had an unprecedented number of customers today.
The storyteller was inexplicably a little nervous, but he was experienced and quickly immersed in the story.
“By the way, at the end of last year, a person suddenly came to the capital. This person is young and handsome. Most importantly, he has good skills.”
...
The storyteller said mysteriously, “This person is travel-worn and exhausted. After arriving in the capital, he immediately went to the residence of Imperial Physician Song, the head of the Imperial Hospital. He used all his strength to knock on Imperial Physician Song’s door and fainted. Everyone, guess why this person ran to Imperial Physician Song’s house?”
Someone immediately guessed, “Why else? Of course it’s because he has an incurable disease and asked Imperial Physician Song to treat him.”
“No.” The storyteller shook his head.
“Could it be that Imperial Physician Song’s relative was in trouble and wanted his help?”
The storyteller still shook his head. “No, no.” He kept Imperial Physician Song in suspense and quickly solved the mystery. “He looked for Imperial Physician Song because he had a secret medical prescription and wanted to hand it to Imperial Physician Song. Unfortunately…”
He shook his head, and everyone immediately straightened up. “Unfortunately what? Could it be that he didn’t wake up after fainting?”
Upstairs, Gu Yundong could not help but twitch his lips. Why are you so black-hearted? Can’t you expect something good from them?
The storyteller slapped the wood again and shook his head. “It’s a pity that for a nameless moner didn’t have a visiting card or remendation, how difficult was it to meet the head of the Imperial Hospital? The gatekeeper didn’t allow anyone to enter at all. This person was chased out before he even saw Imperial Physician Song. However, he didn’t give up. This medical prescription concerned thousands of moners. Only by handing it to Imperial Physician Song could it be handed to the emperor. Only then could it be announced to the world so that no families in the world would be destroyed because of the illness.”
“Hence, he dragged his exhausted body and guarded Imperial Physician Song’s residence, thinking that he would definitely be able to see him when the sky turned dark. However, what he didn’t know was that Imperial Physician Song happened to go out to gather herbs and wouldn’t e back at all today. Everyone, think about it. It’s December. It’s so cold in the capital. He endured all the cold and waited outside for three days and three nights before Imperial Physician Song finally returned.”
“When Imperial Physician Song saw his pale face and stiff body suddenly appear, he was shocked. Fortunately, Imperial Physician Song was benevolent. Seeing that he was trembling from the cold, he quickly got someone to bring the man back into the residence and let him eat something and drink hot water. Only then did he slowly recover.”
“Who knew that this person’s body would warm up and he could finally speak fluently? He immediately grabbed Imperial Physician Song’s hand and said impatiently and excitedly, ‘Imperial Physician Song, the illness that has been troubling us for thousands of years can finally be resolved. We’ve finally found a way to prevent smallpox. In the future, we won’t let anyone die from smallpox.”
“What??”
Whether it was upstairs or downstairs, all the guests in the teahouse could not help but stand up and widen their eyes.
