Chapter 2388: Observation
"Where?"

"Your Majesty, you kicked off the quilt. It's cold... You should cover yourself with more quilts when it's cold!"

When Zhang Xuezhou came out of the magic state, a faint white light was already shining through the window, dimming the candlelight in the room.

The feeling of being in the mother's womb receded like the tide, and Zhang Xuezhou then opened his eyes.

He saw the new emperor who was sleeping in the center got up first. He kept patting Han Yan who was curled up beside him, until Han Yan also woke up and answered him, the new emperor breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your hands and feet are cold, and your breathing is weak. I thought you were suddenly sick," the new emperor said. "I guess you felt cold in the middle of the night and wanted to cover me with a blanket, but you were too sleepy and fell asleep. As a result, you didn't even cover yourself with the blanket, and you were left cold!"

"Well!"

Han Yan responded subconsciously, his head shaking as if it was filled with water.

He only felt his limbs were cold and weak, and it was difficult for him to even stand up.

"Is Han Yan unwell on this tortoise-shell bed?"

When Zhang Xuezhou stood up, he kicked Sang Hongyang. Sang Hongyang came back to his senses with a start. Seeing Han Yan who seemed to be sick, he hurried forward to help.

"This bed is warm in winter and cool in summer, but no matter how good a bed is, it can only protect one side of the body. Han Yan's other half must be suffering from the cold!"

Zhang Xuezhou added a sentence, choosing to speak last.

His words made everyone nod, and they felt that everyone's opinions were quite unanimous.

After sleeping for a night, Han Yan felt cold and fell ill.

"Han Yan is good at martial arts, and his cultivation is only one step away from the realm of supernatural powers. His illness is too outrageous," the new emperor complained.

“Those who practice Qi and blood martial arts have strong bodies and generally don’t get sick,” said Sang Hongyang.

"Maybe Han Yan didn't practice martial arts for head-on combat," Zhang Xuezhou said.

"Yan Xi practices hidden weapons, and his slingshot never misses a single shot," the new emperor said, "His ability in frontal combat is average, but when paired with me, he is very clever and can almost defeat an opponent of the same level in an instant!"

"So that's it!"

Zhang Xuezhou exclaimed, and immediately understood why Han Yan got along so well with the new emperor.

Just based on the fact that he was able to find a reason to get rid of the new emperor when the other party was confused, Zhang Xuezhou felt that this ability was not something that ordinary people could achieve.

The martial arts that Han Yan is good at can be paired with the new emperor, and this kind of cooperation will undoubtedly lead to harmony and benefits, rather than conflict and disadvantages.

Zhang Xuezhou's martial arts skills are much higher than Han Yan's, but he really needs to learn Han Yan's way of getting along with others.

It is even possible that these are just two points he knows at the moment, and there may be more things worth learning.

"Dongfang Shuo, you are also half a doctor. Please check Yan's health first. If you can't help, I will go back to the palace to recruit an imperial physician for Han Yan," said the new emperor.

"it is good!"

Zhang Xuezhou responded.

He took a deep breath and then looked around Han Yan.

"Dongfang Shuo, you're still going around in circles when you treat a patient? Shouldn't you extend your hand to feel the pulse?" The new emperor asked curiously, "Can you do this?"

"Doctors observe, listen, ask and feel the body, and I diagnose by observation," said Zhang Xuezhou.

"Did you see anything?" asked the new emperor.

"I think Han Yan can eat more breakfast and he should be able to recover," Zhang Xuezhou said.
"You mean to say that Han Yan's hands and feet are cold because of hunger?"

The new emperor asked in disbelief.

He felt that Zhang Xuezhou's diagnosis was a bit ridiculous, but there was nothing wrong with having breakfast. Even if they had to return to the palace, they could still have breakfast at Pingyang Marquis' Mansion.

The new emperor called out, and the servants of the Marquisate who had been waiting at the gate ran out quickly. "Guard Mao, come over and take a look at Han Yan!"

The new emperor called himself the emperor in his bedroom, but when he left the palace, he resumed his status as Marquis of Pingyang and called Li Guang by his previous title.

“Eat more!”

Li Guang touched Han Yan, whose hands and feet were cold, looked at his weak hands and feet, and replied in a cold voice.

"You also think Han Yan should eat more!"

The new emperor exclaimed in surprise.

He felt that Zhang Xuezhou's diagnosis by observation made no sense, but Li Guang also said so, which made the new emperor no longer hesitate.

He called for a sheep cart and, without caring how quickly the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion prepared the breakfast, led everyone directly into the dining room.

"Come on, come on, Yan, eat something first!"

The breakfast of the royal family and the marquisate is not much different from that of the general public, except that it is more refined and of better quality.

The staple foods for breakfast in the Marquis's mansion are millet and rice, the meat is pork and chicken, and there is also a plate of seasonal vegetables or wild vegetables.

The new emperor arranged for Han Yan to take a seat. Seeing Han Yan struggling to swallow a bowl of millet rice and half a plate of pork, his complexion looked much better, which made him feel relieved.

"Dongfang Shuo, your diagnosis is really good. Han Yan's hands and feet are now warm, he can stand up, and speaks normally!"

The new emperor has a very good relationship with Han Yan. Seeing that Zhang Xuezhou's diagnosis of Han Yan was correct and Han Yan's health had become much normal, he was very happy.

“Wind-cold is mostly caused by insufficient internal heat, and eating is the best way to generate internal heat!”

Zhang Xuezhou said casually.

People in the same industry are enemies. He and Han Yan met very rarely. He never thought that Han Yan would be in trouble after just one meeting.

Of course, this is related to Zhang Xuezhou's high level of martial arts skills. After all, Zhang Xuezhou's martial arts skills are not like Han Yan who relies on the new emperor as the main body for development, but are almost growing in leaps and bounds.

He surpassed the new emperor's current martial arts skills several years ago, and was obviously far superior to Han Yan. He also brought a crushing advantage in martial arts when they came into contact, and even if he did it unintentionally, it would still have a significant impact.

But Zhang Xuezhou did not lack the necessary caution. He knew that Han Yan was practicing martial arts, so he tried to avoid physical contact with them as much as possible. This not only reduced the possibility of being discovered by Han Yan, but also eliminated the possibility of Han Yan's martial arts being broken by him.

Seeing that Han Yan became normal after eating continuously, Zhang Xuezhou also breathed a sigh of relief.

But the new emperor's happy look even after being sold out made Zhang Xuezhou both angry and amused.

He suddenly understood why Emperor Jing was accused of being cold-hearted, and why Emperor Jing never argued back.

Anyone would feel cold-hearted if the people they trust and are close to are unreliable.

The close ministers accompanying him include Zhang Xuezhou, Han Yan, Sang Hongyang and Li Guang. Zhang Xuezhou and Han Yan covet the practice of martial arts, Li Guang is the remnant of the Human Emperor, and Sang Hongyang is a person cultivated by the Luoyang Merchant Group. What they maintain and develop is the interests of the Luoyang family. Almost no one of them is completely reliable and trustworthy.

Many people come for profit, so there is no possibility of romance. It is normal for the emperor to treat them with indifference.

However, Zhang Xuezhou felt that the relationship between the new emperor and himself should be very weak.

He was not as considerate of the new emperor as Han Yan, nor did he cooperate with the new emperor. His advice caused a turmoil in the harem, and he had to run out of the palace to get some peace and quiet even when he wanted to sleep.

With a minister like him, Zhang Xuezhou felt that the new emperor was already being polite to him by still sleeping and eating with him, and even allowing him to stay away from the court for a long time to receive his salary.

"Dongfang Shuo, since you are good at observing, smelling, asking and palpating, go to the Pepper Room to check on the Queen today. It would be best if you could explain to her your bunch of crooked theories about men and women so that she can calm down!"

After eating, Han Yan's health gradually returned to normal. The new emperor was relieved and got back to business. He began to let Zhang Xuezhou, the one who tied the bell, untie it, so as to avoid making him feel uneasy at home.
The new emperor originally wanted to go out of the city to hunt after getting up, but when he saw Zhang Xuezhou running to the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion, he couldn't help but urge Zhang Xuezhou to hurry into the palace.

If he could resolve the Queen's wild thoughts and avoid constant quarrels with him, it would also be convenient for the new Emperor to return.

If Zhang Xuezhou failed to solve the trouble caused by the nonsense, the new emperor would run away as soon as possible and wait until the queen shut up before he would choose to end the hunt.
