Chapter 240: Raising the price from the ground up
Everyone likes to wear masks.
This is also a Lord who is unwilling to show his true face.
I don’t know if Liu Yueru has seen his true face, but she still dares to pester him.
As soon as I entered, I smelled a strong smell of medicine.
The patient must have just taken medicine.
"Mr. Huang, this is the genius doctor Zeng. His medical skills are unique in our Great Wei. He can even cure cough caused by fatigue. I had to run twice to invite him here." Liu Yueru took two steps at a time and came to the bed to show her goodwill to Mr. Huang.
"Thank you, Miss Liu." The patient on the bed spoke in a very weak voice.
"Miracles doctor, please." The guards who came in asked Yu Yuanzheng to sit on the stool in front of the bed.
Yu Yuanzheng sat down generously and pressed the patient's wrist which was placed on the bedside.
The patient's hand shrank, but he controlled himself and did not take it away.
It can be seen that he usually dislikes strangers approaching him.
Yu Yuanzheng took the patient's pulse carefully.
In order not to disturb the doctor's pulse diagnosis, no one in the room dared to make a sound.
Liu Yueru wanted to say something, but was pulled aside by the guards and made to stand.
It cannot be completely confirmed from the pulse.
"Mr. Huang, doctors always focus on observation, listening, questioning and palpation when making a diagnosis. I cannot be completely certain based on the pulse alone.
Please take off your mask. Zeng needs to see your complexion, eyes, and mouth to fully diagnose you."
Yu Yuanzheng put forward her request in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.
"Doctor Zeng, where are you from?" Young Master Huang did not say he wanted to take off the mask, but instead asked where Yu Yuanzheng came from.
As soon as Yu Yuanzheng heard it, she knew that he had some concerns.
This is to determine whether there is any problem with her based on her whereabouts.
"Zeng has just arrived from the capital of the Great Wei. I heard from Miss Liu that Young Master Huang is from the capital, but there are several families with the surname Huang in the capital. I wonder which family Young Master Huang belongs to?"
On the way here, Yu Yuanzheng asked Liu Yueru a lot of questions.
Liu Yueru didn't know much either.
That is what Mr. Huang was willing to let her know on the surface.
Since she ran away from marriage, she should not be very old.
That's why Liu Yueru approached him so boldly.
What's strange is that Mr. Huang actually let Liu Yueru get close to him without any disgust.
"Dr. Zeng is a common doctor. It's normal that he doesn't know much about the upper-class families in the capital." Young Master Huang avoided answering.
His implication was that he was the son of a high-ranking official or from a noble family.
Now that he had found out where Yu Yuanzheng came from, he had made a decision.
He raised his hand and gently took off his mask.
A handsome but pale face appeared before Yuan Zheng and Shangguan Ziqi.
He looked to be about twenty-four or twenty-five years old.
His eyebrows are like swords and his lips are slightly thin.
But his eyes were staring at Yu Yuanzheng like an eagle.
With just one glance, Yu Yuanzheng knew that this Mr. Huang must have been a person in a high position for a long time.
How could he be a playboy who ran away from his marriage?
How stupid must Liu Yueru be to not be able to make such a judgment?
Looking more closely, why does it look so familiar?
Shangguan Ziqi narrowed his eyes.
He had already guessed who this person was.
It was Liu Dexian, the second prince of Southern Shu who was on the run.
There is definitely a difference between a portrait and a real person.
However, both of them were wearing masks, so their surprise and confusion could not be seen.
It is true that after searching for him for a thousand times, he was finally found without any effort.
Yu Yuanzhen Zheng also thought of it.
But both of them suppressed their shock and behaved no differently than when they came in.
Yu Yuanzheng took a step forward in an orderly manner, checked his eyes, and then asked him to open his mouth to see what was inside.
"Mr. Huang, how serious is your illness? Do you have any idea?"
Yu Yuanzheng didn't believe that she was the first doctor they had hired for this illness.
He must have consulted many doctors before, but he just didn't tell him what disease he had.
Yu Yuanzheng didn't ask at the first time.
This is a test of my medical skills.
Of course, Yu Yuanzheng also took this opportunity to show off his medical skills and make them look up to him.
This way she has bargaining chips.
"The medicine prescribed by the doctor I consulted before was just a temporary solution and only relieved the pain. The medicine has no effect in the past two days." Mr. Huang groaned twice after saying this.
It can be seen that he is in great pain and sweat is on his forehead.
"Mr. Huang, your intestinal abscess has reached the middle to late stages. I am the only doctor in the entire Wei Dynasty who can save you. Ten thousand taels for the consultation fee may not be enough. This is saving your life! I am asking for twenty thousand taels. I guarantee you will survive. How about it?" Yu Yuanzheng said with a smile.
If you don't make this money, you won't make it in vain.
And this person won't live long anyway.
We have to squeeze all the money out of him first.
He wouldn't do anything to himself until she saved him.
She is just fearless.
"Doctor Zeng, how could you do this? Didn't you earn 10,000 taels in Beijing? How could you go back on your word?" Liu Yueru felt sorry for Master Huang after hearing this.
"Mr. Huang, how is it? Do you want treatment?" Yu Yuanzheng ignored Liu Yueru and only looked at the main person.
Liu Dexian looked at Yu Yuanzheng steadily, trying to see something from the two eye sockets on her face.
But Yu Yuanzheng is very open.
"Does the miracle doctor love money so much?" Liu Dexian was so shocked by the 20,000 taels of silver that he didn't know how to respond for a moment.
He fled in a hurry and didn't take much silver with him.
If he wanted to return to Southern Shu, money was the key.
"I can't help it. This is my only hobby. Others love life, and I can save lives, so of course I choose to love money. It's called taking what you need, and it's fair. I never force anything. I am also a gentleman. I love money, but I get it in a proper way."
Yu Yuanzheng also described herself as very noble.
Liu Dexian had nothing to say.
This man seems to have made a lot of money.
Keep him first, fatten him up, and then settle the score with him when he succeeds.
"Can Dr. Zeng really cure intestinal abscesses?" Liu Dexian still didn't quite believe it.
He knew about this disease, and few people with it could survive the middle and late stages.
"Don't worry, I will ensure that you survive. I can even sign a life and death agreement with you." Yu Yuanzheng assured very confidently.
"Okay, just because of what you said, I will let you treat it. Twenty thousand is twenty thousand. If you can't cure it, you can't leave this yard." Liu Dexian also made a threat.
"That's easy, but I have to be frank with you. You'll have to suffer a little. My treatment method is to remove the lesion." Yu Yuanzheng has always been very serious about his work and has to explain the treatment process clearly to the patient in advance.
"How do you remove it?" Liu Dexian didn't understand.
"It's just about making an incision in your lower abdomen and removing the necrotic area." Yu Yuanzheng gave a brief description.
"How dare you! How can a person survive after his stomach is cut open?" Upon hearing this, a guard drew his sword and pointed it at Yu Yuanzheng.
Shangguan Ziqi would never allow anyone to treat his wife like this, so he kicked the sword-wielding guard to the ground.
Liu Dexian didn't expect that there was such a skilled person following the miracle doctor. His bodyguard's martial arts skills were not very good, but he was not someone who could be knocked over in one go.
The others also hurriedly drew their weapons and were about to kill the two men.
"what!"
This scene scared Liu Yueru so much that she screamed.
