Chapter 13 Wang Xuance
Wang Xuance was quite famous near the Yuelai Inn. Because when he first came here, he was very prosperous in the book business, so he expressed some unique opinions and wanted to find a way out with the nobles in Chang'an City.
The people around me were also happy to listen to him talk about something for free.
Now, with no money and no money, and with his terminally ill brother, he was at the end of his rope.
After running out of money to buy medicine a few days ago, my brother's intestinal carbuncle disease has become unbearable. Yesterday, he even started to have a fever. If he doesn't have medicine, he won't be able to survive the next two days.
"As you said, Wang Langjun is really unlucky. A good person is reduced to selling himself to save his younger brother."
"Yes, butcher Chen from the pork shop next door was originally thinking about recruiting him as his son-in-law. Wang Langjun didn't like him at all, but now..."
"This is life. There is no point in Wang Langjun doing this. Intestinal carbuncle is a terminal disease. Who can get it?"
"Anyway, Wang Langjun is kind and loyal! I heard that this younger brother is not his biological brother, but a sworn brother. He just happens to have the same surname."
The crowd of onlookers talked a lot, and some who knew Wang Xuance couldn't help but make various comments.
"Your Majesty, my subordinates have found out clearly that a scholar is selling himself to save his younger brother. He says that his younger brother has intestinal carbuncle. If anyone can save him, the two brothers will sell their lives to whomever they can from now on!"
Xue Li found out the situation clearly without much effort.
"Sell yourself to save your brother?"
Li Kuan had heard of many plots in novels about "selling oneself to save one's mother" and "selling oneself to save one's father". Unexpectedly, today he encountered the story of "selling oneself to save one's younger brother".
But he didn't feel anything special.
In this era when people are like nothing, even if you have the idea of helping the world, it is impossible for everyone to help.
On the contrary, it was the various scenes of "kneeling down and begging for help" on the streets in later generations that gave him a sense of unreality.
"Let's go around this street and leave the city."
Today, Li Kuan did not show off the ceremonial guard of the Chu Palace and traveled in a very low-key carriage. Xue Li worked as a part-time groom.
Therefore, the kind of bully driving away pedestrians will naturally not be done.
"Your Majesty..." Xue Li hesitated for a moment.
"What's the matter?"
"This sick man, from Li's point of view, should be a very skilled master. If the prince can save them, the palace will have an extra master."
"Can you see this?"
Li Kuan glanced at Xue Li suspiciously.
Doesn’t it mean that you have to sell yourself to save your younger brother? It means that you are about to die.
You can actually tell that he is a master?
Did you travel through time or did I travel through time?
"Your Majesty, people who practice martial arts have a very special feeling towards their own kind. The more you practice to a certain level, the more you can experience this feeling. Just like some people, if you meet them face to face, you can't help but be wary.
, because you can feel the threat he poses to you..."
What Xue Li said was a bit mysterious, but Li Kuan also saw so much and cared about it.
This is the first time Xue Li has begged himself in these days, and he has to give him face no matter what.
"Then go and have a look!" Li Kuan said noncommittally, "Did you just say that the man had intestinal carbuncle?"
"My lord, that's what everyone onlookers said, so I think it's correct."
"Intestinal carbuncle!" Li Kuan frowned.
The name carbuncle may sound a bit unfamiliar, but if you replace it with appendicitis, you should be familiar with it.
As a very pediatric disease in later generations, almost all surgeons have performed appendicitis surgery.
In various surgical departments, it seems that there is no simpler operation than appendicectomy.
But that is for future generations!
In the Tang Dynasty, intestinal carbuncle was really a terminal disease.
It would be better if the attack could be avoided or the attack was not severe, and it could be maintained by relying on traditional Chinese medicine.
But if the inflammation is severe enough to require surgery, in ancient times one could only wait to die.
Obviously, the person waiting for treatment should have severe inflammation.
"Is your brother's condition definitely caused by intestinal carbuncle?"
Xue Li took the lead, followed by Li Kuan, and arrived in front of Wang Xuance easily.
"Yes, I have already approached several doctors in Chang'an City, and they all told me this. As long as you can help save my brother, from now on, my life, Wang Xuance, will be yours."
Wang Xuance could tell at a glance that the young man in front of him was the most likely person to save his younger brother that he met today, so naturally he would not give up this opportunity easily.
"Wang Xuance?"
Li Kuan couldn't help but raise his voice.
This unusual reaction made Wang Xuance stunned for a moment, "Am I famous? Why did the young man in front of me react like this? Could it be that I have offended him before?"
"Noble man, if you don't change your name or surname when you go down, you are exactly Wang Xuance."
"I've never heard of any story in the history books about Wang Xuance selling himself to save his younger brother. It seems that without me, Wang Xuance's identity would most likely not have been sold!"
In a short period of time, Li Kuan found an explanation for himself.
Li Kuan: "You must also know what is going on with this intestinal carbuncle disease and your brother's condition. Although I have a way to treat him, it's hard to say whether I can succeed."
Li Kuan's words made Wang Xuance's eyes light up.
Originally, he was a dead horse acting as a living horse doctor, doing his best to ensure the destiny of the people.
However, looking at the situation, it seems that the noble man in front of him really has a way to save his younger brother.
There is absolutely no need for people to deceive themselves!
"Is there...is there a way to treat it?" Wang Xuance took a few steps forward in joy, but was quickly blocked by Xue Li. He immediately realized that he was rash.
"Humph, our prince has always said the same thing. If there is a way, there will be a way."
Wang Xuance's suspicious tone made Qing'er a little unhappy.
"Your Majesty?"
Wang Xuance felt a little dizzy.
The two brothers came to Chang'an City just to find a good way out, but this dream has never been realized.
Now in this situation, the dream has become so close to me.
He was not worried at all that Li Kuan would dare to impersonate the prince, as this would definitely be a fool's errand.
"Let's take the person back first. If the fever can go down, there is a 60-70% chance of treatment. If it doesn't go down and we have to have an operation, the chance of survival will not exceed 30%!"
Li Kuan himself had a girlfriend who was a medical student in his previous life. By coincidence, he had an attack of appendicitis after eating seafood, so he knew a little bit about appendicitis.
In the Tang Dynasty, Wang Xuance's younger brother was so ill that no one could save him except himself.
