A rare opportunity

Chapter 327 Dean's Position

"Doctor Li, please!"

As the saying goes, a sedan chair is carried by people! Seeing Li Yu so humble, Yin Wentong also reciprocated Li.

The eunuch Wei immediately bowed to Li Yu and said:

"Since we have already met, I have many things to do, so I will take my leave now! If Doctor Li needs anything, please let the servants find me!"

Li Yu also bowed in return and said:

"Thank you, Eunuch Wei, for showing me the way!"

Eunuch Wei smiled slightly, bowed to Yin Wentong and Sheng Ziyu, and left in a hurry.

At this moment, a servant came in and bowed to Yin Wentong and said:

"Reporting to the Imperial Physician Yin, we don't have much left of Schizonepeta tenuifolia and Notopterygium wilfordii. Do we need to buy some back?"

"Xiao Yuan, are you having eye problems? Doctor Li is here, so why should I give orders?"

Yin Wentong glanced at Xiao Yuan and said unhappily.

"This……"

It seemed like Xiao Yuan wasn't very smart and couldn't figure it out for a while!

Li Yu immediately understood why these two people rejected him, and said:

"Hey! Imperial Doctor Yin is wrong! I am new here, I don't know anything, I don't understand anything, how dare I give orders? Let Imperial Doctor Yin make the decision!"

Yin Wentong looked at Li Yu deeply, and finally nodded to Xiao Yuan and said:

"This type of medicinal material is extremely consumable, so we need to stock up as soon as possible! The Second Prince's wedding is imminent, and we must not make any mistakes!"

Xiao Yuan immediately accepted the order and left. Yin Wentong did not think that Li Yu's humility was a relinquishment of power. As he said, he was just a newcomer and had no idea what to do!

Li Yu's humble attitude has made him feel much calmer. Thinking that he will have to hand over power sooner or later, it is better to take the initiative to do so rather than being forced to do so! Although he is reluctant, it is only a matter of time before he has to hand over power. You can't let a fourth-rank imperial physician obey the orders of a fifth-rank imperial physician, right? He immediately shouted to the outside of the door:

"Master Shi, come in for a moment!"

With a muddy voice of agreement, a short and fat old man rolled in. He was less than four feet tall, but weighed nearly two loads! A round face was carried on his shoulders, and the neck was not visible!

When he entered the hall, he pretended to bow. But he just couldn't bend his waist! He muttered:

"I have met several imperial doctors before!"

"Old Shi! Go get the account book of the Imperial Hospital. I need to hand it over to Doctor Li!"

Yin Wentong immediately said to him.

Master Shi agreed and was about to turn around when he heard Li Yu stop him and say:

"Master Shi, please stay!"

Shi Qian was slightly stunned, then stopped and looked at Li Yu, waiting for his instructions.

Li Yu didn't even look at him, but bowed to Yin Wentong and said:

"Mr. Yin! Li Yu only knows medical skills and has no other abilities. He is lazy and unwilling to think too much. He came to the Imperial Hospital just to be a free and easy imperial physician and has no other ideas! Mr. Yin, please be considerate of me!"

The tone is sincere and the attitude is firm!

Yin Wentong was stunned! It was beyond his expectation that Li Yu would not fight for power or profit! He was ashamed to think that he was worried that he would take away his power after he came! He didn't expect that an old man who has lived for more than a hundred years is not as open-minded as a young man! The more he is like this, the worse it will be for him to occupy the position of dean! He immediately said seriously:

"I'm surprised by what Doctor Li said! Doctor Li is the highest-ranking person in the Imperial Hospital anyway, how can he be inferior to others! The post of dean must belong to you!"

Li Yu's remarks really frightened Hu Qian! He cursed in his heart: Are you stupid? You are actually giving away the rights that others can't even fight for?

But when he heard what Yin Wentong said, he couldn't help but look at Li Yu a few times! I didn't see it! This guy was actually retreating to advance!

Sheng Ziyu could only stand there anxiously! He was skeptical about Li Yu's words at first! But when Yin Wentong's words came out, his judgment became more firm! This kid is definitely a master! This move of retreating to advance and luring the enemy into a trap is extremely clever! He wanted to go up and block Yin Wentong's mouth! Since he is so good at using his mind, you just pretend to be confused! If you agree to it right away, wouldn't it make this kid speechless and unable to speak out his pain? But Yin Wentong was too straightforward. He couldn't take back his words after they were out, so he could only sigh secretly.

Hearing this, Li Yu smiled and bowed:

"Li Yu just wants to study medicine with peace of mind and doesn't want to be bothered by worldly affairs! I hope Mr. Yin will help me!"

"This……"

Li Yu's answer surprised Hu Qian and Sheng Ziyu! They didn't expect that there would be such a stupid person in the world! If the previous evasion was a pretense, then now they can be sure that Li Yu really doesn't want to be the director of the Imperial Hospital!

Hu Qian was so anxious that he scratched his head and kept winking at Li Yu! The reason why he was so concerned about the position of the dean was that once Li Yu became the dean, he would naturally become the general manager here! He didn't get the position of the general manager of the Li Mansion, but being the general manager here would probably be much more profitable than the Li Mansion! The consumption of medicinal materials in such a large prince's mansion can be imagined! If he could get the purchase of medicinal materials, wouldn't he make a fortune?

However, Li Yu was unmoved and ignored his winking and making faces! He was so angry that he cursed all of Li Yu's ancestors!

"How can this be possible? I..."

Yin Wentong shook his head repeatedly.

Li Yu interrupted him and said:

"Mr. Yin, there is no need to say more! I have made up my mind and will never accept the position of dean! Master Shi, please arrange a consulting room for me!"

"This……"

Shi Qian couldn't help but look at Yin Wentong in silence. Yin Wentong wanted to persuade Li Yu, but before he opened his mouth, he heard Li Yu say sincerely:

"Mr. Yin! Li Yu has been granted the title of fourth-rank imperial physician by the grace of the emperor. But after all, I am young and inexperienced, especially in terms of medical skills, which are far behind the masters! In order to live up to the emperor's grace, Li Yu will concentrate on studying medicine, and I hope Mr. Yin will help me!"

"Well... well then! I will temporarily take over the position of dean. When Imperial Doctor Li's medical skills have matured, I will step down and let him take over!"

Originally, Yin Wentong looked down on Li Yu from the bottom of his heart. It was because Li Yu was unknown and was appointed as a fourth-rank imperial physician at a young age. He thought that this person was uneducated and relied on nepotism to get the position. But after this period of contact, his understanding of Li Yu has greatly changed! Unconsciously, he actually fell in love with this young man! He immediately said to Shi Qian:

"Master Shi, please vacate that pharmacy for Doctor Li to use!"

Master Shi was stunned when he heard this! Then he turned and left. Soon, Master Shi's voice sounded:

"Reporting to Imperial Physician Yin, the room has been cleaned up!"
