Chapter 158: Chapter 159: Passing on the Medical Book

Previously, when Chu Nanli was about to return, Lin Physician insisted on following, saying that learning the art of medicine from her was urgent.

Chu Nanli: "..."

Seeing Lin Physician’s enthusiasm, Chu Nanli simply agreed to first provide him a medical book for study.

She also thought of another apprentice of hers and said, "Then follow me to the Prince Residence, where I will give you the medical book and also introduce you to Zhuang Muyan."

Chu Nanli thought she hadn’t had time to teach Zhuang Muyan lately, so she simply called him over and gave him several medical books to study as well.

"Zhuang Muyan?" Lin Physician was slightly surprised.

"He is the apprentice I took in before, also your senior apprentice brother," Chu Nanli lightly coughed and said, "You know him?"

Lin Physician nodded, "Zhuang Muyan, though young, is already an outstanding Imperial Physician, which is admirable."

"The mentor is indeed impressive, even a young prodigy like Zhuang Muyan wishes to study under you.

Chu Nanli: "..."

She thought Lin Physician would be a bit embarrassed since it was about someone he knew, but it turned out that Lin Physician had a very positive attitude.

"Since you don’t mind, I might as well teach you together," Chu Nanli said.

As she was about to ask Chu Yi to deliver a message to Zhuang Muyan, she remembered Chu Yi had been assigned by her to monitor Lin Fuying.

Ye Jiuxiao seemed to notice Chu Nanli’s awkwardness and lightly instructed, "Zero, go deliver a message to Physician Zhuang."

Chu Nanli smiled

Ye Jiuxiao was truly wonderful!

Zero, however, was wholly displeased; even his usually impassive face twitched.

Ye Jiuxiao actually ordered him to do a favor for someone else.

More importantly, he was a captain of the guard, and the Prince only asked him to do such a simple task as delivering a message?

At this moment, Zero’s emotions were complex, but his face remained impassive as he officially responded, "Yes, Prince."

...

Chu Nanli was dressed in casual clothes, her face covered, as she and Lin Physician scaled the wall into the War King Residence.

Although Lin Physician did not understand the reason, he did not ask; his only interest was in the medical books.

Chu Nanli’s medical books were actually stored in a space, but she could not always take them out, so she claimed they were in the study at her residence.

She escorted Lin Physician to the main hall, then said, "Wait here; I’ll go get the books."

Although she said she was going to retrieve books, she actually sneaked back to her chamber and quietly entered the space.

Chu Nanli was a master of both Eastern and Western medicine.

She thought about how both Lin Physician and Zhuang Muyan already had profound achievements in Eastern medicine.

She planned to teach them some basic concepts of Western medicine.

Although this would challenge their existing ideas and perceptions, learning it would be greatly beneficial and could help treat more people.

Determined, Chu Nanli selected two basic Western medicine books of equal difficulty for fairness.

By the time she came out, Zhuang Muyan had also arrived.

He and Lin Physician were already deep in conversation, seeming to enjoy each other’s company greatly.

Lin Physician was truly not embarrassed, addressing Zhuang Muyan repeatedly as "Senior Brother."

Zhuang Muyan, on his part, similarly kept calling Lin Physician "Senior Lin."

Chu Nanli: "..."

Seeing Chu Nanli come out, Zhuang Muyan spoke first, "Master, what have you been doing these days? I haven’t seen you for a while."

"I’ve been busy," Chu Nanli cleared her throat and said, "How is the homework I assigned to you progressing?"

Zhuang Muyan immediately became enthusiastic, reciting the new knowledge he had learned to Chu Nanli.

As he recited, Lin Physician hurriedly took notes beside him; despite his years of medical study, many of the concepts were ones he had never even heard of, and he felt the need to remember as much as possible.

At the same time, his respect for Chu Nanli grew even more.

Chu Nanli was so young yet so learned—He had indeed chosen the right person to follow!

After Zhuang Muyan finished reciting, Chu Nanli nodded in satisfaction and handed them the introductory books on Western medicine.

"Both of you, cough cough, you have a deep understanding of traditional medicine, so I am not planning to teach more on that right now."

Zhuang Muyan looked puzzled, while Lin Physician appeared somewhat anxious.

Just as he was about to speak, Chu Nanli pointed to the book in his arms.
