Chapter 77: Seeking the Divine Physician
“Mother, did you come up with a solution?” Yunzhu looked at her mother with doubt. How could she have thought of anything in such a short time?
“Yes, I heard that the Divine Physician Wuxin has recently come to the capital. Many families have gone to see him for treatment, and we can go to him too.”
“Really?” Yunzhu was a little incredulous. She had never heard of any divine physician before, let alone that he had already come to the capital.
“Of course it’s true, would your mother lie to you? Come on, let’s go home. We’ll go to the Dark Tower to seek the Divine Physician tomorrow.”
“Then I’ll listen to you, Mother.”
“Don’t worry, Zhu’er, Mother will definitely find a way to cure your poison.”
“Yes, I believe you, Mother.” Yunzhu looked at Xu with trust. Even if she didn’t believe her, she had to now. Because besides Xu, no one else cared about the poison she had been given.
“Miss, Xu and the others have left. However, the people downstairs said that she might go to the Dark Tower to seek the Divine Physician.”
“Then let her go. But you tell them not to accept her case. I don’t want to go to the Yun Mansion to cure Yunzhu’s poison.”
“I understand, I’ll tell Ruzhu.” Rulan nodded. She liked her mistress like this, clear-cut in her love and hate, rewarding kindness and repaying grievances, not being a saint.
Yunzhu was the one who brought it upon herself. If she hadn’t poisoned the mistress, how could she have been poisoned herself?
Xu, true to her word, returned home and had people inquire about the whereabouts of the Divine Physician Wuxin. She also specifically sent people to the Dark Tower to inquire about the news.
After learning that the Divine Physician Wuxin had indeed come to the capital, she took her private funds, brought Yunzhu with her, and set off.
Yunzhu originally didn’t want to go, because her body had already become uncomfortable. But Xu told her that if she went with her, it would save time.
She had heard that several families in the capital had already made appointments with the Divine Physician Wuxin, just waiting for him to visit them.
If they didn’t find a way to cut in line, they wouldn’t know when it would be their turn, let alone whether Wuxin would cure Yunzhu’s poison.
Yunzhu followed Xu and soon arrived at the Dark Tower, where the Divine Physician Wuxin was temporarily staying.
Ruzhu was in charge of the Dark Tower. She had received Rulan’s message beforehand, knowing that Xu would come. Therefore, she didn’t dare to show herself, fearing that Xu would recognize her and bring trouble to her mistress.
Therefore, she directly had her subordinates receive Xu and Yunzhu, instructing them to refuse the two’s request for medical treatment. As for the reason, she said that they were already fully booked and were not accepting new appointments for the time being.
Xu and Yunzhu were immediately doused with cold water, feeling utterly hopeless. They had pinned all their hopes on the Divine Physician Wuxin, never thinking they would be rejected.
Therefore, they were unwilling to give up. They directly took out their silver notes and handed them to the person who received them, saying, “Please help us, miss. We want to see the Divine Physician.”
“I’m sorry, madam, the Divine Physician is not seeing patients.” Bai Shao shook her head and refused Xu’s request. Although she didn’t understand why Ruzhu, the manager, said not to accept their case, she felt that the other party must not be a good person, otherwise Ruzhu wouldn’t have specifically instructed her.
Xu heard this and thought that Bai Shao didn’t care, so she added a few more silver notes, saying, “Miss, please, just let us see the Divine Physician for a moment.”
“Madam, I’m sorry, the Divine Physician really isn’t seeing patients. You should go back.” Bai Shao refused again, not even looking at the silver notes Xu shoved at her.
