419 Bestowing Gu Qingxue With the Title of a Third-Grade Female Doctor


    “Is it that powerful?” Rong Xiaotian was frightened by Gu Qingxue’s serious expression. His expression immediately turned serious.


    Facing Rong Xiaotian’s sharp gaze, Gu Qingxue remained calm. “Your Majesty, thismoner does not dare to speak rmist words. Prince Heng and the others were only at the Tie Family Vige for a few days before they were infected with the gue. If it wasn’t for the vige being sealed off in time and the fact that thismoner had developed a medicine to control the gue, Jing City would have fallen.”


    Rong Zhan exined, “Your Majesty, what Gu Qingxue said is true. I’ve also seen how fast the rashes spread. Even if we’re just talking face to face, it’s highly contagious. At that time, there were more than a hundred vigers in the vige, and none of them were spared. They were all infected with the gue.”


    Only then did Rong Xiaotian realize that the gue was much more terrifying than he had imagined. He asked, “I heard from my subordinates that the gue has been controlled so far. Is this true? ”


    !!


    “Yes,” Gu Qingxue nodded. “The reason why the gue didn’t spread this time is because my master left me half of a prescription to cure it. It’s also thanks to this prescription that I was able to control the gue before it spread.”


    “In that case, Doctor Gu has indeed made a great contribution. Otherwise, once the gue wreaks havoc, the consequences would be unimaginable.” Rong Xiaotian continued, “From what Doctor Gu said, your master’s strength should be above yours. I wonder if your master wille with you to the capital this time? What’s his name? Why have I never heard of him before?”


    Gu Qingxue lowered her head and replied unhurriedly, ” “Reporting to Your Majesty, thismoner’s master had died of illness many years ago. Back then, this one saved my master by chance. My master did not have a fixed residence and never told this one his name. He only passed on his life’s knowledge to this one and then passed away.”


    Rong Xiaotian’s face revealed a disappointed expression. “That’s a pity. I’ve brought up a sad matter.”


    “Your Majesty’s words are too serious,” Gu Qingxue said indifferently.


    What did she have to be sad about? She did not have a master at all. She was just worried that people would be suspicious of her if they investigated the past of the original owner of this body, so she simply made up a non-existent ‘master’.


    In this way, not only would her medical skills be exined, but the most important thing was that even if she had any special skills in the future, she could rely on her non-existent master.


    “At first, I felt it was a pity that I couldn’t let Doctor Gu’s master enter the pce as an imperial physician. However, on second thought, Doctor Gu has already inherited all of your master’s legacy and is so young. You are more suitable than your master to enter the pce as an imperial physician.” As Rong Xiaotian spoke, a smile appeared on his face. “Someone, pass down the imperial order. Gu Qingxue will be given the rank of a third-grade female doctor, a residence in Yongan Street, and a reward of ten thousand taels of gold.”


    When Gu Qingxue heard that Rong Xiaotian had indeed allowed her to stay, she could not help but feel a little disgusted.


    Just as his foster father had said, His Majesty was used to dictating and not caring about other people’s feelings.


    Perhaps, in his eyes, giving her an official position was a great favor from the emperor. However, Rong Xiaotian probably did not expect that there would be someone like her in the world. She was not interested in the so-called emperor’s grace, nor did she want to enter the pce and be an official.
