I am Yuan Niaoniao

Chapter 108 Prince Rong

"They are lucky that the situation is solved this way." Han Junyi said to Wen Zili angrily.

"It's just that the clinics in the city are not doing their best. Although the situation has been resolved, it has given your Highness a chance to show his abilities." Wen Zili thought for a moment and said, "The reason for this breakthrough is that the doctors in the clinics in the imperial city are not as skilled as others, and the consultation fees are too high, causing most people to go out of the city to find Jishidi. Why don't we take advantage of this opportunity to clean up all the clinics in the city and replace them with our own people. In this way, our reputation will soon come." Wen Zili smiled and looked at Han Junyi: "They have Jishidi, we can ask the imperial physician to go out of the palace occasionally to see patients!"

"That's a good idea!" Han Junyi's eyes lit up after hearing this: "But if we want to invite the imperial physician, we have to ask father for his opinion."

"I think we can invite those old doctors who have just retired from the Imperial Medical Bureau. First, they still have energy and are not bound by the court. Second, they are experienced and are doctors from the palace. Naturally, they will attract many people to come. Moreover, at their age, they will not be greedy for money and power, so they are easier to control." Wen Zili said slowly.

"Okay, let's do as Mr. Wen says." Han Junyi nodded. He would do anything that could increase his reputation.

The next day, Han Junyi led his troops to raid all the medical clinics in the city with great fanfare. This large-scale incident left the people confused.

Someone bravely stepped forward and asked, "Your Highness Prince Yi, why are you treating these clinics like this? If they are all closed down, how can we ordinary people get medical treatment and medicine in the future?"

"Yeah yeah,"

“Although the usual fees are a bit expensive, it’s not enough to close it down.”

"I support His Royal Highness Prince Yi. Don't you see how much I suffered from them on a daily basis? They didn't even dare to see a doctor when I was sick. Later, thanks to the opening of Jishiditang outside the city, I was able to get cheap and good medicine. Sometimes they don't even charge for consultation!"

"That's right. In my opinion, all these evil things should be confiscated."

Han Junyi saw that people were talking about it all around, so he knew the time was right. He stepped forward and said loudly, "Listen to me, fellow villagers. The current emperor is ill, and I am the one who will rule the country! I heard that the people in the imperial city are worried about the high cost of medical treatment in the city's clinics, and the poor medical skills! I sympathize with you and it is not easy, so from today on, all the clinics in the city will be closed, and the Prince Yi's Mansion will reopen in the future, and we will invite the imperial physicians from the palace to see patients. Please rest assured, the consultation is free, and we will only charge you for the medicine! The Prince Yi's Mansion will escort you!"

As soon as these words came out, the crowd cheered: "Prince Yi is mighty! Prince Yi is mighty!"

Han Junyi looked at the excited people and felt secretly proud.

He turned around and ordered the soldiers behind him, "Post a notice immediately to inform the people of the opening time and location of the Prince Yi's Palace Medical Clinic."

The soldiers followed the order and left.

Han Junyi then said to the people: "This king will do his best to provide the best medical services for everyone."

He then left the scene amid the cheers of the crowd.

In the following days, the clinic in Prince Yi's Mansion was quickly opened. Although the imperial doctors invited were older, they had solid medical skills and experience, and the medicine fees they charged were quite low, so they were very popular among the people.

Han Junyi's reputation therefore greatly increased, and people became more and more supportive of him.

"I think Prince Yi is more kind than Princess Chen!"

"That's right. Princess Chen's Jishiditang is not cheaper than the clinic of His Royal Highness Prince Yi's family, and Prince Yi doesn't charge for consultations!"

"That's right, we don't have to leave the city anymore!" For a while, people on the streets were full of praise for Han Junyi.

.........

"He is very proud of himself as he has gained both fame and fortune." Yuan Niaoniao and Chen Shaoyi talked as they sat on the roof looking at the bustling street.

"Wen Zili is indeed a capable man. As soon as we broke the impasse, he took advantage of the opportunity to catch up. Han Junyi is indeed in great need of such a capable man." Chen Shaoyi said.

"And he is very familiar with Jiaxin. He knows it was Jiaxin's work just by thinking about it carefully. He can react immediately and take advantage of the situation. He is indeed a rare talent. It's a pity that he is not even a threat to us." Yuan Niaoniao said with a smile.

Chen Shaoyi nodded slightly to show his agreement. He turned to look at Yuan Niao Niao, a smile flashing in his eyes, "Han Junyi's move is undoubtedly a challenge to us. We don't need to respond, just let him be in the limelight."

Yuan Niao Niao raised the corners of her mouth and smiled confidently, "Don't worry, no matter how weak our Jishiditang is, we will never be outdone by him. Moreover, we treat difficult and complicated diseases, and ordinary minor illnesses are just a waste of our talents. This is just like using time to break the deadlock, there is no need to prove it yourself. So this rivalry is just his own stupidity."

"By the way, do you still remember the Yi people?" Chen Shaoyi suddenly said.

"Yes, of course." Yuan Niao Niao looked at Chen Shaoyi puzzledly.

"That Yi tribe member Hong Li, isn't she in our hands? Her husband, that Gu Yunmu, has finally started to take action. I thought that after so long, we had really given up on Hong Li." Chen Shaoyi almost forgot about this. As he was talking, he remembered that Ming Xiao had mentioned this in his report the day before.

"Hong Li is also the most patient woman I have ever seen. She has not given in even after being trapped. She even believes that her lover will come to rescue her. I admire her a little bit." Yuan Niaoniao thought of that stubborn woman, and sometimes she could even see a little bit of her own shadow. "Has her husband made any moves?"

"He secretly recruited soldiers in the imperial city. It seems that his eldest brother was unaware of this. What's interesting is that he did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to hire wandering scholars. However, that's not all. He even wants to seek greater protection."

"Who is the greater shelter?" Yuan Niaoniao's mind quickly went through most of the people who were currently strong enough to compete with her.

"Prince Rong." Chen Shaoyi smiled and said, "You have never heard of this prince."

"Prince Rong?" Yuan Niaoniao racked her brains but couldn't figure out who this person was.

"Well, Prince Rong is Han Junwu's elder brother. Originally, the throne belonged to him. But Han Junwu used means to snatch the throne that should have belonged to him, and framed his mother, Concubine Jing. The late emperor was furious and gave Concubine Jing a white silk, and expelled her from the palace and forbade her to be mentioned again. After Prince Rong was deprived of the throne, he was framed by Han Junwu again and again. In the end, Han Junwu wanted to kill him. It was my father who, for the sake of the late emperor, sent the seriously injured Prince Rong away. Everyone thought he was dead, and no one dared to mention Prince Rong from then on. This was a matter of the previous generation. It's normal that you don't know, because Han Junwu himself issued a gag order, so very few people knew about it afterwards." Chen Shaoyi explained: "I guess my father didn't know that Prince Rong was still alive, and he had the courage to come back to Dadu, and even lived as a member of the Yi tribe. If it weren't for Gu Yunmu, I wouldn't have thought that Prince Rong was still alive, and I would have found Prince Rong by following the clues."

"If Han Junwu knew that the brother he had killed was still alive, he would probably be shocked." Yuan Niaoniao said with emotion after listening to this. In all dynasties, the fight for the throne was always bloody, so she was just sighing and not surprised.

"His name is Duanmu Rongzhen now." Chen Shaoyi couldn't help but frowned, "I don't know if he is an enemy or a friend now. If it is not necessary, I don't want to fight him."

"Understood." Han Junwu's biological brother is also Prince Chen's cousin, so naturally he doesn't want to confront the blood relationship. "So what are you going to do?"

"Return Hongli to Gu Yunmu." Chen Shaoyi said with a smile.

"That's fine. Anyway, Hong Li can't ask any more questions and it's useless. Let's just do you a favor." Yuan Niaoniao nodded in agreement.

The next day, Ming Xiao intentionally lured Gu Yunmu over.

"What on earth do you want to do by leading me here?" Gu Yunmu stopped and shouted angrily. He saw Ming Xiao was still following him. The more he followed, the more he felt that Ming Xiao had deliberately led him here.

Ming Xiao turned around and looked at Gu Yunmu without saying anything, then waved his hand, and two secret guards appeared, escorting a woman in red.

"Hongli!" Gu Yunmu shouted in surprise. It was his Hongli!

"Our prince said that he admires your wife for her backbone, so he let her go. But if you from the Yi tribe come to provoke Prince Chen's Mansion again in the future, he will not let you go so easily. It's like an egg hitting a stone. You will make the decision yourself." Ming Xiao shouted loudly, and then nodded to the two secret guards. The two men let Hong Li go and left with Ming Xiao.

Gu Yunmu rushed forward to help Hong Li up. Seeing that her eyes were still closed, he gently shook her: "Wake up, Hong Li, it's me! Wake up, Hong Li." He reached out his hand to feel her breath, and only felt relieved when he confirmed that she was still alive and there was nothing wrong. He took a look around, then picked up Hong Li and left quickly.

"Second in Command, you're back." A little one saw Gu Yunmu coming back and hurried forward to greet him.

"Go get a doctor quickly." Gu Yunmu said as he hurried back to the room carrying Hong Li.

He gently put Hong Li on the bed, then went to fetch hot water to wipe Hong Li's face and hands.

At this time, Hong Li gently opened her eyes. In a daze, she seemed to see Gu Yunmu. She swallowed and said, "Yunmu?"

"Hong Li, you're awake. Hong Li, it's me! Yun Mu." Gu Yun Mu excitedly helped Hong Li up: "How are you? Are you feeling unwell?"

"Water...water." Hong Li said with difficulty.

"Bring some water quickly!" Gu Yunmu shouted to the servant beside him.

The servant hurriedly filled a cup of warm water and handed it forward: "Second Master, water."

Gu Yunmu took the water and fed it to Hong Li carefully. Hong Li drank the water in one breath and only then did he feel his throat felt a little better.

After taking a deep breath, he looked at Gu Yunmu with red eyes: "I thought I would never see you again, Yunmu!"

"Fool! How could I abandon you!" Gu Yunmu was choking with excitement, "I was ready to save you, but why did the King of Chen just let you go?"

"I don't know either. He kept trying to trick me in the beginning, but I would rather die than speak. Finally, Yejiu gave up torturing me and tricking me. As for why he suddenly let me go, I really can't guess." Hong Li also looked confused.

Before the two of them could say more, Gu Ruochen sent someone to call Gu Yunmu over.

"Second in command, the Great Elder asks you to come over." A servant stepped forward to report.

Gu Yunmu frowned and patted the back of Hong Li's hand: "I'll be back soon, you take a good rest first."

Hong Li had no choice but to nod, after all, she was also afraid of Gu Ruochen.

Gu Yunmu quickly came to Gu Ruochen's room and pushed the door open: "Brother, do you have something to talk to me about?"

"How did Hong Li come back?" Gu Ruochen did not hide it and asked directly.

"It was Prince Chen's men who released Hong Li." Gu Yunmu did not dare to hide anything and had to repeat the whole incident in detail.

"Stupid!" Gu Ruochen sighed: "Think about it, you guys offended Princess Chen so much before, how could they release Hong Li for no reason, and let him come back unharmed!" If it were me, I would never be so kind.

"Brother..." Gu Yunmu really didn't think that deeply, he just wanted Hong Li to come back, and he believed in Hong Li's character. "Brother, you also know Hong Li's character, she will never betray us!"

"Stupid!" Gu Ruochen was really disappointed with his brother. "Let's not talk about how many days Hong Li has been captured. How can you be sure that he hasn't been brainwashed or alienated to become one of their people during this period? We are facing the Lord of the Underworld Pavilion. How can you be so careless! If our base is exposed, it will be even more difficult for us to act later! You are putting the entire tribe to death for a woman!"

"Hong Li was brought back in a coma, and she is still recuperating in the room," Gu Yunmu looked at Gu Ruochen and his voice unconsciously became a little weak.

"Now I will lead my tribe to change our base, and you and her stay here! As for how to explain to your tribe, that is your business!" Gu Ruochen slammed the door and left, leaving Gu Yunmu with a solemn face.

Gu Ruochen led his people to move out of the stronghold overnight. The noise woke up Hong Li. She walked to the window, quietly opened a crack and looked out, only to see that all the tribesmen were hurriedly leaving with their luggage.

When Gu Yunmu came in, Hong Li immediately stepped forward and asked, "Is this what Big Brother meant? Big Brother, you don't believe me!"

"Hong Li." Gu Yunmu said with some embarrassment: "I believe you, but you know my brother's temper! And we Yi people have always been sensitive and cautious. I will stay here with you, Hong Li!"

"Yun Mu!" Hong Li's eyes turned red, and after a while he said, "I understand you, big brother! I will prove it with my actions and make you trust me!"

"Hong Li..." Gu Yunmu hugged Hong Li with some heartache, but his elder brother's words just now made him feel a little suspicious. Indeed, he just noticed that Hong Li seemed to be different from before. In the past, she was arrogant and domineering. Even if she was in awe of her elder brother, as long as she heard that her elder brother or someone else had misunderstood and wronged her, she would hysterically argue for herself. But this time, she could endure it? Or maybe his elder brother was too much! He had never had a doubt about his elder brother.

Maybe I should find a way out for myself and Hong Li, so that I won't be in such a dilemma like now...

For the first time, Gu Yunmu had second thoughts about Gu Ruochen. He used to respect Gu Ruochen, but his good brother was a little too much......
