Chapter Fifty-One Didn't Think It Would Come So Soon

  Chen Yi nodded to He Lanmin's siblings after finishing the examination of Wu Shun, indicating a reassuring gaze before standing up and preparing to leave. Wu Shun's recovery was quite reassuring, Chen Yi didn't hear any bad signs during the examination, which made him wonder, even if it was severe pneumonia, the recovery shouldn't be so fast, knowing that the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine shouldn't take effect so quickly, unlike refined antibiotics that work immediately, the effects should only manifest two or three days later.

  But now the stethoscope and examination results all indicate that Wu Shun is no longer in danger, and any abnormal diagnoses such as Luo Yin have completely disappeared, just like he had taken some kind of miracle medicine. "It's truly heaven helping me!" Chen Yi couldn't help but exclaim. This scene seemed to be specially designed for his appearance, and was recognized by others as a dramatic plot twist. It seems that lucky people have their own destiny, and there is some kind of power secretly helping him.

  Just then, Wu Shun didn't open his eyes again and didn't make close eye contact with this noble lady. Chen Yi had a small regret in his heart. He himself couldn't explain what kind of mentality it was, wanting to take a closer look at Wu Shun's eyes, feeling the impression that this noble lady gave people.

  Seeing Chen Yi's hinting eyes, He Lan Minzhi's original not-too-much worry was eliminated a lot, and he hurriedly hinted at He Lan Minzhi to follow him outside to talk. Doctors do not discuss the patient's condition in front of them to avoid worrying the patient, this avoidance is ancient and modern, Chen Yi immediately followed and walked out of the inner room.

  "Ziying, how is my mother's illness now? Is it really not serious?" Gu Xian asked Chen Yi hastily, her usual calm demeanor nowhere to be seen as she stepped out of the inner chamber.

  "Don't worry, brother. Your mother's illness has recovered extremely well, even better than I imagined. It's unbelievable that just one night passed and all the bad diagnoses have completely disappeared. If she takes good care of herself for another two days, she should be back to normal." Chen Yi replied with a smile.

  "Really?" He Lan's surprise was beyond concealment!

  "Of course it's true!" The lung rales and other abnormal signs had all disappeared, and the doctor would determine that the patient had almost recovered based on his own experience. Chen Yidare made such a judgment.

  "That's great, I really don't know how to... thank you!" He Lan Min's excited face was a bit distorted. Although he and He Lan Min Yue could see from Wu Shun's expression that their mother's illness had improved a lot, the doctor's diagnosis was far more important than their own judgment, Chen Yi's words were just that!

  "No need to be so polite, brother. As a doctor, I have a responsibility to help those in need. Although I'm not a skilled physician, you and Sun Daochang have entrusted me with this task, and I must see it through. Thankfully, Madame Korea's condition has improved significantly, and I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. I won't let you down, brother, nor will I betray the trust that Sun Daochang has placed in me. There's no need for thanks or apologies." A hint of pride appeared on Chen Yi's face.

  He Lan Min was surprised by Chen Yi's words and his proud demeanor, so he swallowed the few polite phrases he had originally wanted to say. He smiled and said: "Since you've said that, I won't be polite either. You're right, we are friends, no need to be so formal. I'll remember your feelings in my heart." As he spoke, he patted Chen Yi's shoulder and laughed even more heartily. "Another day, let's go back to Yunxiang Pavilion to drink wine... or not, Drunken Immortal Pavilion is also fine, haha! I'll treat you, we'll have a great time, and I want to see your poetry when you're inspired!"

  "That's good, I'll definitely accept Brother Chang Zhu's invitation...". Chen Yi only said half a sentence before he saw He Lan Minyue walking out of the inner room and immediately stopped talking, stepping forward to pay his respects.

  He Lan Minyue heard Chen Yi's words and looked at the expressions of the two men outside the house. Being clever, she already understood that her mother was fine, and the two men were discussing where to go for a drink. She curiously asked: "Brother, are you guys planning on going out to have some fun? Can I come along with Minyue? I want to see more of Chen Gongzi's poetry!"

  "Minyue, you should tell your brother that mother's illness is almost gone and she will recover in a day or two. Brother is happy and wants to know when he can take him out for drinks to celebrate," He Lan Min looked at Chen Yi, then lovingly looked at his own sister, "If you really want to go, brother will take you, but... you can't tell mother, she doesn't want you following your brother around all day!"

  "Minyue knows!" He Lan Minyue responded with a joyful expression, and couldn't help but ask Chen Yi: "Young Master Chen, my mother's illness is really okay now?"

  Chen Yi nodded, "Yes, the lady's illness has recovered a lot. After taking medicine for a few more days to consolidate it, she will definitely recover! Don't worry about it anymore. These days let the lady eat some nutritious and fresh food, open the window often to keep the indoor air fresh..."

  "After saying a few words about post-recovery care and precautions, he added: 'I didn't expect the lady to recover so quickly. It can only be said that good fortune comes from heaven, it's the lady's good luck, not my excellent medical skills!'"

  He Lan Minzhi and He Lan Minyue shook their heads in unison, and He Lan Minzhi said with a very decisive tone: "No, you are wrong. If it's not the problem of medical skills and medication, but my mother's luck, then why didn't her illness improve under the treatment of so many imperial physicians before you? On the contrary, it became more and more critical. After your diagnosis and treatment, she recovered so quickly, which is indeed a matter of high or low medical skills. Master Sun must have witnessed your excellent medical skills, that's why he recommended you! Ziying, I will explain this to my aunt, and I think she will definitely praise you in person!"

  "It's not worth mentioning!" As soon as Wu Zetian was mentioned, He Lan Min felt inexplicably excited and hoped to see this legendary woman as soon as possible. But he still spoke politely, "This is just a trivial matter, it's just a small effort, I don't dare to be worthy of the empress's personal summons!"

  "I'll definitely tell Aunt about this, you're a talented person in all aspects, Aunt has always favored people with talent, I believe she'll like you too when she sees you, and might even give you important tasks right away!" He Lan said with a mysterious expression, lowering her voice slightly: "Maybe Aunt will summon you to the palace soon..."

  －－－－－－－－－－－

  Chen Yi did not expect that He Lan Min's words would come true so soon. On the third day of his diagnosis for Wu Xun, he went to the residence of Mrs. Korea again to check on Wu Xun and confirmed that although her body was still a bit weak, she had no major problems and only needed to take medicine for a few more days and rest to fully recover. The next afternoon, he received an imperial summons from Empress Wu Zetian, ordering him to enter the palace to pay his respects!

  That was Chen Yi's second examination for Wu Shun, and he had a pleasant conversation with He Lan's brother and sister. After returning to the inn with a relaxed mood, he planned to take Ning Qing out to eat at the seaside to celebrate his first successful diagnosis. Just then, an eunuch from the palace arrived at the inn, saying that he was carrying an imperial edict from the Empress Dowager, summoning him to enter the palace...
