Xiao Feng chuckled inwardly, but on the surface he said in a serious tone, "Now that you've completed the first treatment, your tuberculosis has improved a lot. You only need to undergo three or four more treatments like this to completely cure your tuberculosis."

Chapter 279 The Carefree King (First Update, Please Vote)
279.
Lin Wan'er was both delighted and embarrassed when she heard Xiao Feng say that.
I was overjoyed that my tuberculosis could finally be cured, but ashamed that I would have to undergo this treatment three or four more times.
"Miss Lin, let's schedule the next treatment for three days from now! I will personally come to your residence to treat you then. When I have time, I'll also visit your elder brother and see if we can cure his mental disability."
While Xiao Feng was treating Lin Wan'er, he chatted with her about everyday things to prevent her from fainting from embarrassment, thus diverting most of her attention.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Xiao."
Lin Wan'er knew that Xiao Feng was a highly skilled doctor and hoped that he could cure Lin Dabao, so she didn't care about being shy anymore.
That's it!
Looking at Lin Wan'er's charming appearance, Xiao Feng knew that this female protagonist from the original novel could no longer escape his grasp.
Next, just two or three more massage sessions will be enough to bring him to justice.
……
next morning
In front of all the civil and military officials, Emperor Qing issued an imperial edict whose contents were so shocking that they caused a sensation throughout the capital.
The imperial edict stated that Xiao Feng had rendered a great service in saving the emperor, and that Emperor Qing would bestow upon him the title of Prince Xiaoyao, not only rewarding him with a great deal of wealth but also granting him the privilege of not having to bow to the emperor and carrying a knife into the palace.
While there is no greater merit than saving the emperor, the gifts Emperor Qing bestowed upon Xiao Feng this time were far too lavish.
After all, Xiao Feng was the first non-royal prince appointed by Emperor Qing after he ascended the throne!
Therefore, many people secretly speculate that Xiao Feng is very likely Emperor Qing's illegitimate son raised outside the palace, and that he is deeply loved by Emperor Qing, which is why he was granted the title of king under the pretext of saving the emperor.
After the court session, the civil and military officials began to use their respective resources to investigate Xiao Feng's identity and background, only to find that he seemed to have appeared out of thin air.
This only reinforced the public's belief that Xiao Feng was Emperor Qing's illegitimate son raised outside the palace.
If it weren't for Emperor Qing's help in covering it up, who else would have the ability to completely hide Xiao Feng's past?
Xiao Feng ignored the rumors and gossip, continuing to do as he pleased, doing whatever made him happy.
Every night, Xiao Feng would openly go to the Liujing River, book the flower boat at Zuixianju, and fall asleep holding Si Lili.
Soon everyone learned that Si Lili, the most famous courtesan in Kyoto, had become the plaything of the carefree king.
Although Si Lili's fame grew even more because of this incident, no one dared to risk offending the Carefree King and provoke her again.
Out of her professional habit as a spy in Northern Qi, Si Lili did not forget to find out the true relationship between Xiao Feng and Emperor Qing while serving him, wanting to find out if he was Emperor Qing's illegitimate son.
Seeing Si Lili's inquisitive look, Xiao Feng used her own methods against her, letting her experience firsthand what it felt like to be interrogated so thoroughly.
It wasn't until midnight, after Si Lili, who had been subjected to unbearable beatings, fell into a deep sleep, that Xiao Feng entered the Main God Space.
Besides the dazzling [God's Light Sphere], dozens of large doors have appeared in the God's Space, which should have been empty.
When Xiao Feng opened one of the doors, a planet inhabited by countless monsters appeared before him, along with many more monsters kept in incubation tanks.
Since the [God's Light Sphere] unlocked the ability to simulate space, Xiao Feng has opened up dozens of simulation spaces in the God's Space, transforming them into research sites of different styles.
For example, the planet Xiao Feng is currently on is specifically designed to research and create monsters.
Although everything in the simulation space is fake, the data derived from it is real.
The latest research achievement of the shadow clones is that they have successfully developed a nuclear-powered monster similar to Godzilla.
Although the setting of Joy of Life appears to be ancient, it is actually a future world that has experienced nuclear war.
The internal energy cultivated by those martial artists is actually the energy emitted by nuclear radiation.
The reason why Grandmasters are far stronger than Ninth-Rank Martial Artists is because they have mastered abilities similar to nuclear fusion.
When Xiao Feng met Emperor Qing at the Qing Temple, he had secretly scanned Emperor Qing's physical data using the [Main God Light Sphere].
Xiao Feng discovered that some organs in Emperor Qing's body had mutated, becoming mutated organs capable of storing large amounts of nuclear energy, similar to the nuclear reactor organ in Godzilla's body.
The shadow clones combined Emperor Qing's physical data and genetically modified the Kaiju during the cloning process, giving the newly cloned Kaiju a nuclear reactor organ similar to Godzilla's.
Because the power of a nuclear bomb is directly proportional to its yield, the massive Kaiju can naturally unleash combat power far exceeding that of a Grandmaster.
"untie!"
With a low shout from Xiao Feng, the dozens of shadow clones that were nurturing the nuclear-powered monster instantly exploded into clouds of white smoke.
The memories of the shadow clones researching the nuclear monster also flooded into Xiao Feng's mind.
Xiao Feng easily sorted through those memories, and then summoned dozens of shadow clones again, letting them continue to study the nuclear monster.
After leaving the simulation room dedicated to studying monsters, Xiao Feng went to other simulation rooms and absorbed the latest research memories in the same way.
……
Early next morning
Kyoto, the Prince Jing's Mansion.
Because both Southern Qing and Northern Qi have Grandmaster-level experts in charge, neither side can defeat the other, so Qing has had no wars to fight in recent years.
Under Emperor Qing's deliberate guidance, the Qing Kingdom, renowned throughout the world for its martial prowess, also began to value the cultivation of scholars.
When superiors have certain preferences, subordinates will surely follow suit!
Among those prominent families, apart from the eldest son who can inherit the family business, the other sons, after reaching adulthood, can at most be allocated some industries to make a living.
Most of the wealthy young men who had nothing to do would choose to take the imperial examination route, which required them to study, interpret books, read poetry, and write poetry.
Nowadays, the most popular thing in Kyoto is no longer duels between warriors, but poetry gatherings that only scholars are qualified to attend.
The two most famous poetry gatherings were the one held at the Prince Jing's residence and the one held at the Crown Prince's residence.
The two poetry gatherings are held monthly, rain or shine. Each time, many talented people from poor families and poets from humble backgrounds try their best to get in, hoping to make a name for themselves at the gatherings and use their poems to climb the ladder of advancement.
As the currently popular Prince Xiao Feng in the capital, he naturally received invitations to the poetry gathering from the Jingjun Prince's Mansion and the Crown Prince's Mansion.
In the original story, Fan Xian gradually earned the title of "Poet Immortal of Qing Kingdom" by copying Du Fu's poem "Ascending the Heights" at a poetry gathering held at the Prince Jing's mansion.

Chapter 280. Zhuge Liang and Jia Xu
280.
Xiao Feng couldn't tolerate anyone being more pretentious than him, so he decided to attend the poetry gathering at the Prince Jing's mansion to embarrass Fan Xian and earn some World Origin Points along the way.
At the gate of the Prince Jing's residence, several scholars were bowing to a young man, overwhelmed with gratitude. They had not expected that the Prince Jing's heir would personally greet them outside the garden gate.
As the eight-bearer sedan chair embroidered with the character 'Xiao' finally appeared at the corner of the street, the Prince of Jing's eyes lit up. He impatiently bowed to the scholars who were bowing and went to greet the eight-bearer sedan chair.
Upon seeing this, the scholars realized they had been presumptuous. They remained outwardly calm, but inwardly they were so embarrassed they were scratching their feet.
Compared to the embarrassment of the scholars, everyone present was more curious about what kind of distinguished guest it was that required the Prince of Jing's heir to personally greet him outside.
Soon the sedan chair came to a stop in front of the Prince Jing's mansion. A white jade folding fan emerged from the sedan chair and slowly lifted the heavy curtain. A handsome young man in a black and gold robe stepped out of the sedan chair.
Some sharp-eyed people were the first to notice that the young man's robe was embroidered with a four-clawed dragon pattern that only princes could use, and immediately guessed the man's identity. It was obvious that this person was the famous Prince Xiaoyao.
Under the extremely warm reception of the Prince of Jing, Xiao Feng, accompanied by two scholars dressed in white robes, entered the Prince of Jing's residence at a leisurely pace.
After entering the back garden with its winding corridors and flowing water, Xiao Feng's gaze swept around and finally landed on the opposite side of the lake.
Across the lake stood a pavilion, where ladies of noble birth sat, surrounded by layers of white gauze, their figures barely discernible.
Although the Qing Kingdom has a relatively open social atmosphere, there is still a saying that men and women should not have physical contact.
In such crowded public places, it is still necessary to separate male and female guests to avoid damaging the woman's reputation.
After withdrawing his gaze from the white curtains, Xiao Feng turned his attention to the male guests.
With the introduction of the Prince of Jing's heir, Xiao Feng quickly saw several people who interested him, including the male protagonist Fan Xian and the brilliant Guo Baokun.
Fan Xian was a handsome young man, but there was a strange arrogance between his brows, which easily reminded Xiao Feng of a husky.
At this moment, Fan Xian was being harassed by Guo Baokun and his men, causing the Prince of Jing, who was entertaining Xiao Feng, to frown.
The Prince of Jing's heir is the Second Prince's man, while Guo Baokun is the Crown Prince's man; their positions are inherently different.
Seeing Guo Baokun making things difficult for the guests he wanted to attract at his poetry gathering, Prince Jingjun's heir couldn't help but feel displeased.
If it weren't for the fact that he still had to entertain Xiao Feng, the Prince of Jing would definitely have taught Guo Baokun a lesson.
Just as Prince Jing was hesitating about whether to send someone to secretly teach Guo Baokun a lesson, a female official suddenly walked over quickly and handed the poem written by Miss Fan to Prince Jing.
"it is good!"
When the Prince of Jing saw the poem, his eyes lit up and he exclaimed, "Good!"
"Your Highness, what do you think of this poem? Miss Fan is a renowned talented woman in the capital."
On the white paper, written in delicate small regular script, were the following words: "The lake is level in August, its vastness merging with the clear sky. Mist rises from the Yunmeng Marsh, waves shake the city of Danzhou. I wish to cross, but have no boat or oars; to remain idle is a disgrace to this wise ruler. I sit and watch the fishermen, filled only with longing for their catch."
"It is indeed a good poem!"
Xiao Feng smiled and nodded, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes, and said, "However, the style of this poem does not seem to be that of a woman."
Because Xiao Feng did not lower his voice, his words were quickly relayed to Fan Ruoruo on the other side of the lake.
"Your Highness has discerning eyes. This poem is indeed not written by a young woman. It was written by my elder brother when he was ten years old. I am copying it out today so that you may all appreciate it."
Upon hearing Fan Ruoruo's explanation, everyone's expression changed slightly, and they all turned to look at Fan Xian.
I never expected that Fan Xian could write such a poem when he was only ten years old. Could he really be a genius?
Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng did not rush to expose Fan Xian's true colors. Instead, he smiled without saying a word and quietly watched him show off.
Don't they know that the higher they climb, the harder they fall?
