I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon

Episode 161. Who the hell brainwashed the Emperor? (2)

“Hoo~. Then, can Seon do open surgery now?”

“Simple open surgery can be performed.”

“Heo Heo Seon became your disciple and surpassed me in a few years.”

“How can you make the doctor comfortable with only having an open surgery…”

The painter exchanged small talk with Pyeon-won, observing the surroundings.

‘They say there are many ears in the imperial palace….. They don’t know how to disappear.’

The fireman wanted to bring out the business that had called Pyeonwon separately, but he couldn’t because he had ears to hear.

The painter couldn’t help but say what he wanted to say, and after talking about the events of the past, other minor illnesses, and the emperor’s illness, he returned to Jo Deung’s office.

‘Should we find out who played the prank on the emperor?’

The painter couldn’t help but worry.

If the opponent is not the emperor and there are only ten people around, he will find out right away, but this is an opponent who can really run away if he is wrong. That’s why I couldn’t easily make up my mind.

‘Can I create a chance to be alone with the emperor? I don’t think it’s going to be easy…..’

Reason is shouting to just pretend I don’t know, but my conscience keeps stabbing me in the chest.

“I am a proud grandson. What are you so worried about?”

At that time, Jo Deung returned to his office, found the fireman, and approached him to talk to him.

Jojo hurriedly left at the call of Josung, so only the fireman was in the office.

The painter actually knew that if he stayed here, he would meet Jo Deung.

It was a little awkward to meet without Jojo, but what I was waiting for was that the conclusion of the inner conflict had already been reached to some extent.

The painter intended to create time to be alone with the emperor through the lighting.

“Ah, I was thinking about Your Majesty’s illness.”

“Didn’t you say that you had the same opinion as the member of the side earlier?”

“The opinion is the same… but the treatment method is different.”

“You mean you can treat it in some other way?”

“yes.”

“Ho-! I’m interested in this, but if you can get better results than Senator Pyeon’s… that’s good for Your Majesty.”

Jo Deung tried to get the words out of something.

In Jo Deung’s office, there were subordinate eunuchs and Jo Jo’s lieutenants.

“Even if I want to be treated, I am a little reluctant because I think it will be an act of overreach because Congressman Pyeon is there. Besides, my treatment has a lot of slander, so I shouldn’t even have people around… I’m worried about that too.”

“The treatment itself seems to be no problem since the convenience doctor also acknowledges you, but it doesn’t work even if there are people around. What do you mean?”

“My treatment requires a lot of mental focus. So if you have someone around you, you can easily make mistakes.”

“hmm! Come to think of it, even when he operated on Hwang Wan, he said he couldn’t even see his family.”

“yes.”

Jo Deung thought about it for a while, then got up from his seat.

“I’ll discuss it for a while, so wait.”

“yes.”

Jo-deung, who went outside, returned after about an hour or so.

“If I let you heal His Majesty, will the oblate also enter?”

“no. I intend to go in alone.”

“Unfortunately, as a result of discussions with the officials, it was concluded that it would not be possible without observers.”

The fireman had expected this to happen.

“is it so. I can’t help it.”

“Is it really bad if there are observers?”

“yes.”

As soon as the painter answered, Jo Deung nodded.

“It’s a pity.”

“Iknow, right. I am very sorry too.”

The doubts in the fireman’s heart gradually turned into certainties.

I knew they were rotten, but when I experienced it myself, the stench was enough to numb my nose.

The fireman had no more business, so he said goodbye to Jo-deung and left the office.

Now, as I was heading toward the south gate of the palace to return, several court ladies hurriedly approached and called the fireman.

“Please pause. Are you angry?”

“Yes, I am angry. What are you doing?”

“The Empress Dowager is looking for you, so please follow me.”

“The Empress Dowager? All right.”

In the imperial palace, the only person who could be called empress now was the emperor’s mother, Empress Dowager Dong.

Upon entering the Hall of Empress Dowager, I saw Empress Dowager Dong walking around standing still, unable to sit down.

“I’m going to learn about the Empress Dowager Empress.”

“Oh yes, come on. you are that mad It’s better than the side city council…”

“It’s not better than the side city council, but it’s called Hwa-ta.”

“I heard a little while ago through the inner tube on the post-abdominal side that you said you could treat His Majesty in a different way than the Pyeon City Council?”

“yes. But I can’t do treatment when someone else is present.”

The painter suddenly thought that Empress Dowager Dong would be able to create the opportunity she wanted.

“Then I will create an opportunity for you and His Majesty to be alone, so treat them.”

“All right.”

“If I call you now, can you heal me?”

“Right now, I don’t have any treatment equipment, so I have to bring those things.”

“Then when will it be?”

“It takes two hours to go out and come back.”

“I get it. Then, I will summon Your Majesty tonight, so come here as soon as you enter the palace.”

“All right.”

The fireman came out after saying hello and was worried that the history would be changed by treating Youngje, but soon shook his head and brushed off his concerns.

‘Yes, no matter how history changes, let’s only think of the patients who are being manipulated by hypnotism. It’s my job to treat patients.’

When he made up his mind to treat Yeong-je as a patient rather than an emperor, his other worries mysteriously disappeared like snow melting in the spring sun.

* * * The

reason Empress Dowager Dong was able to quickly read the contents of the conversation between Cao Deng and the painter was because she was close to the eunuchs.

Conversely, Empress Ha was close to the warlords due to the influence of her brother, a general, and the emperor sided with her mother and eunuchs rather than his wife.

Empress Dowager Dong was on good terms with the eunuchs, so she would have listened to them normally, but after her son collapsed, she pushed ahead with her own actions.

Upon learning of her decision, the eunuchs flocked to the group to express their concern about her decision.

“What are you talking about so much when you say you will have my child treated by the best doctor in Korea?”

“But not allowing anyone to observe…”

“Isn’t that why the excellent military commanders who are said to be flying are standing outside? Do you guys really think that the child Zhao Bi-Jeong-hu adopted as his grandson would even kill His Majesty?”

At Empress Dowager Dong’s words, the eunuchs looked at Cao Teng, Empress Dowager Xia, and Zhang Yang with embarrassed expressions.

Jo Deung thought for a moment and then opened his mouth.

“I also don’t know why Dotong is opposed to His Majesty’s treatment.”

If Jo Deng is the highest in age among all the eunuchs, Jang Yang is the one who is called the father of the emperor. Therefore, even though Cao Deng agreed, Zhang Yang opposed it, and all the eunuchs sided with Zhang Yang.

As everyone’s eyes focused on her, Zhang Yang put on a very troubled expression.

When opinions differ between the same side, not the opposite side, the side with the better justification will win, but this time, no matter how much I squeeze my head, I was pushed out of the justification.

“The reason I objected to Byeonghu’s opinion was because I was worried about His Majesty. But Empress Dowager and Empress Bijeong are like that too….. It would be better to have someone named Hwata treat you. Instead, we will deploy the most skilled armed forces just in case.”

Yang Yang made concessions due to the atmosphere, but the eyes looking at Jo Deung were not pleasant.

Seeing Jang Yang like that, Jo Deung made an impression without hiding his uncomfortable planting.

In fact, it was all because Zhangyang was so wary of herself that Cao Teng was trying to put Cao Song, his adopted son, on the throne.

* * *

“You cheeky bastard…..”

Jo Deung snorted after leaving the Empress Dowager.

In fact, among the eunuchs now called Ten Sangsi, there was no one who did not pass through his hands.

Zhang Yang, his younger sister, was also educated by Jo Deung when he first became an official.

“You dare to insult me, forgetting the grace that raised you. I need to flatten my nose very much this time.”

Jo Deung had the idea of making Yang Yang the crown prince without fail.

At the same time, Jojo also fell into the idea that he should make the emperor depend on the painter by giving him a higher official position and giving more power to the painter.

‘Come to think of it, it’s good that the councilor is really good. The trust I’ve barely earned over several decades can be easily obtained with just one treatment.’

The reason Jo Deung came out of The Empress Dowager was to meet with the fireman and make arrangements in advance.

After waiting for a while at the south gate, I saw a fireman coming with a backpack.

“Boo.”

When Jo Deung called, the fireman widened his eyes as if slightly startled.

“What is Grandpa up to here?”

“I came to meet you because I have something to tell you. Didn’t you bring the disciples?”

“No, because it is a treatment that does not require disciples.”

“Yeah, anyway, it’s been a while until Empress Dowager, so let’s walk and talk.”

“yes.”

When Jo Deung nodded, several military officers surrounded the two and prevented people from approaching.

Jo Deung made a small voice that only the fireman could hear.

“All the eunuchs have come to know that the Empress Dowager allowed you to treat Her Majesty.”

“I thought so. So, are you not able to cure it?”

“Jangyang was against it, but the Empress Dowager and I agreed to treat it.”

“is it so. Fortunately, the.”

“By the way. There are things I don’t know.”

Jo Deung nodded for a moment, then continued.

“Jangyang was actually my person. One word from me would have killed me. But why are you so against it these days… You’ve become so arrogant.”

“Are the queens the protagonists who oppose them?”

“I see. I don’t know why. I’m sure he has some ulterior motive… but I don’t know.”

The painter calmly collected his thoughts.

‘It’s on the same side… but is it a little different? Or is it an internal struggle? Hypnosis and brainwashing… is this unrelated? Or do you pretend not to know? Oh, I’m confused.’

The fireman’s lights looked different, but he didn’t let down his guard. In any case, there had to be solid evidence to dispel any suspicion.

“Anyway, since you decided to treat it, treat it well… Be kind to His Majesty during the treatment.”

“yes? Are you warm?”

“It means don’t be cocky like you do to me.”

“Oh, when else do you think I was rude to my grandfather?”

“Yes, do not. You must be good to His Majesty. Anyway, a patient always has a good feeling for the doctor who treats him, so if you do well and the relationship improves, it won’t be bad.”

“I will treat hard and do it when the opportunity arises.”

“As for the time, I told the Empress Dowager to give it plenty, so don’t worry.”

“yes.”

It was difficult to understand Jo Deung’s true intentions, but he felt that he was not an actor and he was gradually getting away from brainwashing.

‘Then… the other side? Let’s not have too much prejudice.’

After a long walk, when we arrived at Empress Dowager Hall, not only the eunuchs but also the empress and general Ha Jin had already arrived.

‘Something is happening in the imperial palace. Is it natural that you’re treating the emperor?’

The painter greeted many people one by one, and finally greeted Zhang Yang and entered the Empress Dowager’s quarters.

‘Come to think of it, Zhang Gak is also the Jang family, and Jang Yang is also the Jang family. Could it be… not family or relatives? Hey, what am I thinking right now?’

The painter shook his head at the sudden connection, but the flower of doubt bloomed even more.
