Chapter 1077: Chapter 1078: The Imperial Physician

With that in mind, Chiang Xiao didn’t dare to treat this "leisure time" as a simple farmhouse joy of eating wild game and vegetables.

This was clearly a very artistic and delicate place for relaxation.

Anyway, she quite liked it.

If she had a car, it would probably be quite relaxing to spend a whole day here on weekends; if the food was delicious, then it would truly be perfect.

"Let’s go, let’s ask if Doctor Chen has arrived."

Old Meng took her to find a server inside, who informed them that Doctor Chen had already arrived and was fishing by the pond at the back, and he had left a message that if Old Meng arrived, he should go straight to him.

Chiang Xiao subtly raised an eyebrow.

It seemed, indeed, that Doctor Chen didn’t really care much about Old Meng’s status.

Old Meng led her to the back.

A stone path lined with green bamboo, with the wind gently rustling the leaves, was quiet, serene.

Outside, they had heard some children’s laughter, but once they got to the back, they couldn’t hear it any longer.

"Doctor Chen is the doctor in whom Li Hanzhong and his wife have the most trust, and their personal relationship with him is also excellent," explained Old Meng to Chiang Xiao.

Chiang Xiao suddenly understood.

No wonder then.

Not just a Divine Doctor, but also one trusted by the Alliance Officer—his value was even greater; indeed, not everyone could afford to have him treat them.

In ancient times, he would have been considered an imperial physician, right?

Ahead was a bamboo pavilion, in front of which lay a pond. Near the pond was a person with their back to them, wearing a straw hat, sitting on a small stool, intently waiting for a fish to bite.

"Little, yesterday, President Li, the General Alliance Officer, did he tell you something?" Old Meng hadn’t had a chance to ask her about this matter. Just now, when he brought up Li Hanzhong, he casually asked.

Chiang Xiao said, "Nothing much, just asked if I would affect Brother Xinian’s path as a Supervisor Guard."

Old Meng didn’t overthink it and whispered, "Before, Xinian saved Madam Li during a mission in Peace Town. I suspect it’s because of that incident they are paying more attention to Xinian. But it doesn’t matter; you said it yourself, Xinian can stand on his own."

So he originally thought Li Hanzhong’s interest in Meng Xinian was because of that incident...

Chiang Xiao didn’t explain.

This matter was better left for Meng Xinian to explain himself later.

If he didn’t want Old Meng to know about his relationship with Li Hanzhong, it wasn’t her place to spill the beans.

The two of them walked over, unconsciously slowing their pace.

Waves rippled on the water.

The figure that had been motionless suddenly moved, sharply lifting the fishing rod—a palm-sized fish was jerked out of the water, its tail flapping, splashing droplets that reached Chiang Xiao.

"Not much of a catch today, this is only the first fish! And a small one at that!"

Although the person spoke words of complaint and disappointment, they ended up chuckling afterward.

"Doctor Chen, enjoying your stolen moments of leisure I see. I reckon the line of people waiting for you at Renzhi Hall is about to extend to the entrance of our large courtyard," Old Meng joked.

Chen Baoshen stood up, put the fish into a small bucket beside him, and looked at them.

"Old Meng, thank you for making the trip. This is Madam’s order, squeezing out time for rest every week. Otherwise, before finishing curing others’ illnesses, I might fall ill myself."

"The Honorable Madam makes sense," sighed Old Meng. "I’ve come to see clearly now that health is the most important thing. Everything else is illusory. If life is gone, what is the point of striving for power and benefits?"

This was a sentiment that rose spontaneously within him; Chen Baoshen regarded him with surprise, "Such reflections, Old Meng? You look rosy and, though a bit tired, you should be fine."
