The Turks therefore took their anger out on them.

  "In the eyes of those people, our lives may not be lives." Zhang Yingzi lowered her head sarcastically.

  Li Mumu immediately said to Doctor Li: "Doctor Li, please take the pulse of this girl as well."

  As soon as Li Mumu finished speaking, Gu Mian took out a handkerchief and said to Zhang Yingzi, "Miss, please sit down."

  "Why do you want to feel my pulse?" Zhang Yingzi asked in confusion, "Besides, men and women shouldn't have physical contact..."

  "In front of a doctor, there is no difference between men and women." Li Mumu said, "When you are about to die, can you still care about this?"

  "What do you mean I'm going to die?" Zhang Yingzi was stunned, then asked nervously, "I'm not poisoned."

  "You said that Mr. Zhang had an acute illness and suddenly fell on the bed and couldn't get up." Li Mumu said calmly, "There were no signs before the onset of the disease. Then I dare not say whether you will be the same."

  "If you have been poisoned but don't know it, and the poison hasn't taken effect yet, you think you are still healthy." Li Mumu said, "You should let Doctor Li take your pulse."

  "Miss Zhang, when the female members of the rear house have their pulse taken by the doctor, they always put a handkerchief on their wrist. This way the doctor can take the pulse through the handkerchief without having physical contact with the patient," Gu Mian explained.

  Gu Mian thought to herself, Zhang Yingzi didn't have so many rules before, but now she has become very particular about them.

  "For your health, you should ask Doctor Li to take a look." Li Mumu said.

  Old man Zhang on the bed also said quickly: "Yes, Yingzi, let the doctor take a look at you."

  Zhang Yingzi had no choice but to sit down and put her hands on the table.

  Gu Mian placed the handkerchief on her wrist.

  Li Mumu looked at this scene and thought that she and Li Zhiyin still had a long way to go.

  Even Zhang Yingzi, who didn't really care about such things before and didn't have the conditions to care about such things, now has the conditions and is now very cautious about being together.

  It is indeed difficult for women to liberate themselves.

  Doctor Li carefully felt Zhang Yingzi's pulse and said, "This girl is fine. She is in good health."

  "Thank you, doctor." Li Mumu said, "We want to let Old Man Zhang return home to recuperate. I wonder if Old Man Zhang's current health condition allows him to be moved?"

  Hearing this, Old Man Zhang hurriedly said, "Don't bother Madam Gu. I'm fine here."

  "Our house is quieter and the yard is bigger." Li Mumu said, "After all, this is an inn, with people coming and going. The sound of guests going up and down the stairs can be heard from time to time, and there is also noise outside the window. It is really not conducive to recuperation. Don't be polite, old man."

  "If you hadn't taken my husband in, we wouldn't have had the chance to find him. Now that the old man is sick, we can't just sit there and watch." Li Mumu said, "Old man, please don't be polite to us. If you insist on not going, you'll put us in an ungrateful situation."

  After that, Li Mumu said to Butler Yao: "Butler Yao, please arrange for someone to send Doctor Li back to the clinic."  

  "Yes." Butler Yao took out the medical fee from his pocket and gave it to Doctor Li.

  Doctor Li bowed and thanked him, and then Yao Xing arranged for someone to send Doctor Li off.

  After Doctor Li left, Li Mumu said to Zhang Yingzi, "I know what Miss Zhang meant. You saved your husband, and you are worried that the Turks will hate you and poison you."

  "But Miss Zhang, don't worry, this won't happen." Li Mumu said.

  Zhang Yingzi's eyes flashed, and she asked, "How can you be sure?"

  "You live in Chong'an, which is heavily guarded and has strict inspections at the city gates. They need to see your ID card and customs documents." Li Mumu said, "It is not easy for the Turks to sneak into Chong'an."

  "We have finally placed spies in Chong'an, so we have to keep them secret so as to cause greater damage." Li Mumu said, "I don't mean to look down on Miss Zhang, but if we act rashly against you, not only will it be easy for people to associate it with the Turks, but it will also be easier to alert the enemy, which is really not worth it."

  "But how do you explain my father's illness?" Zhang Yingzi complained, "Ordinary doctors can't find out what's wrong with him. We came all the way to the capital because you told us that we could come to you if we have any problems. You must do your best to help us."

  "But now? You are only willing to hire ordinary doctors." Zhang Yingzi said, "If ordinary doctors can cure my father's illness, we would have cured it long ago. Isn't it because we hope to come to the capital and get the treatment of the imperial physician?"

  "But what's the result? You still use an ordinary doctor to deal with us." Zhang Yingzi sneered.

  "Miss, you are wrong." Yao Xingcai said, "Doctor Li is one of the best doctors in the capital. He is not much worse than Doctor Wen. If Doctor Li can't find out the cause, there is no doctor in the capital, or even in the whole Daxi, who can diagnose it."

  "Miss Zhang, I have explained to you before that I am not qualified to invite the imperial physician." Gu Shangqing said, "But when I came here, Madam knew about this and told me that she would go and ask the Crown Princess."

  Knowing Zhang Yingzi's personality, Gu Shangqing didn't dare to say that Li Mumu had a close relationship with the Crown Princess. She only said, "The Crown Princess has some admiration for you, but we didn't dare to ask her for help in the past. Now, you want to try to ask her to ask the doctor to come out and treat old man Zhang."

  Old man Zhang had never expected that Zhang Yingzi would actually want to ask the imperial physician to come and see him. He said anxiously, "I am a commoner, a mayfly, how can I ask the imperial physician to come out and see me?"

  "There is no such thing as suitable or not." Li Mumu said, "We are of low status and are indeed not qualified to hire a royal physician, but as long as there is a way, we must try it."

  "I'm sorry to disappoint Miss Zhang. My husband and I may be able to gain some respect in the outside world, with one being a fourth-rank general and the other being a county lady. But there are countless nobles in the capital, and we are really not people who can stand on the stage." Li Mumu said, "I'll have someone pack up your things and move to Gu's house first, and I'll go to the East Palace to ask to see the Crown Princess."

  Zhang Yingzi moved her lips, thinking that Gu Shangqing and Li Mumu would evade the question.

  Unexpectedly, Li Mumu actually wanted to ask for an imperial physician. "I... I don't mean that I must have an imperial physician. I just hope that my father can be cured."

  "I understand." Li Mumu nodded, "Don't delay any longer, come back with Old Man Zhang and follow us back home."

  Old man Zhang was really embarrassed and kept saying that he had caused them too much trouble. "Yingzi was also worried about my health. It has not been easy for us to get here. Yingzi has really suffered a lot for me."

  "Dad, it's okay. Anything is fine as long as I can cure you." Zhang Yingzi said with red eyes.

  Zhang Yingzi's maid, together with the people brought by Li Mumu, packed their luggage.
