Chapter 908: Chapter 415: Practicing Medicine in the Mansion, Candid Boudoir Talk, Flower Cage Updates, The Candle Sect Approaches!

Yesterday, during the restaurant meal, it was agreed that at the hour of the dragon the next day, we would meet at Miaoxian Pavilion Inn. Li Xian lives at Yuanbao Square, Xizi Street, Santong Alley. It’s quite a distance from Tongji Square, so he needed to wake up early to prepare.

Li Xian was full of energy, practicing martial arts until midnight last night, then continued internal and bone purification for another hour, cleansing his body before going to sleep, and rose at dawn without any trouble. He practiced for half an hour again in the morning.

He had a simple breakfast. Leading out his extraordinary horse Ju Feng, he headed towards Tongji Square. The squares are connected by a road for carriages and horses. Li Xian’s Ju Feng horse is not only fast but also nimble, extremely adaptive and swift.

Along the road, he galloped and leapt, stepping swiftly... moving with exceptional speed. Li Xian gently brushed Ju Feng’s long mane, feeling the breeze against his face, experiencing an indescribable sense of pleasure. His stance was remarkable; the steed beneath him was extraordinary and unique.

Alongside the road, most people turned their heads with envy and stopped to stare. After arriving at Tongji Square, and waiting for some time, the sound of hooves was heard in the distance. Yao Yin approached, wearing a light green short pleated skirt, her legs wrapped in printed thin stockings, and black leather boots, galloping on horseback.

Her equestrian skills were excellent, her exotic horse Han Xiang moved gently, her hair dancing, her skirt swaying. The pedestrians dared to look, yet hesitated. Li Xian thought to himself, "Women from Jade City are remarkably colorful and passionate in dress, bold and unrestrained."

Yao Yin’s saddle was adorned with a treasure sword, having dressed carefully and powdered her face. Her beautiful eyes surveyed and she smiled, "Oh, is this an exotic horse equipped by the Gold Appraisal Guard? What’s its name?"

Li Xian laughed, "Ju Feng." Yao Yin said, "Ju Feng... that’s a good name, care to show off a skill?"

Li Xian responded cheerfully, "Certainly!" He jerked the reins and squeezed the horse’s flanks. Ju Feng shot forward at great speed, as if it detained the wind in place, thus aptly named Ju Feng.

Exotic horses have their unique characteristics; Ju Feng’s legs are slender, its body lean and refined, exceptionally fast in short distances but lacking endurance. Li Xian pulled the reins, Ju Feng’s four hooves stepped, and it flew as though performing lightweight skill, climbing walls and running on roofs, finally leaping onto a building.

Stepping onto green tiles and red bricks, he reached a terrace, stunning diners inside with an uproar. Li Xian pulled the reins once more, and Ju Feng leaped out of the building.

Hurrying across buildings. Finally returning to the street, turning back at the entrance of Famous Doctor Pavilion, revealing his full demeanor in one trip. Yao Yin clapped, "Impressive! Impressive! A good steed, truly a good steed!" Raising her hand to stroke Ju Feng.

Ju Feng retreated slightly, turning to look at Li Xian. Li Xian nodded to indicate, Ju Feng moved forward two steps, allowing Yao Yin to stroke it. Yao Yin gently patted and stroked, intimately saying, "In terms of agility, my Han Xiang might not match your Ju Feng. But over long distances, your Ju Feng won’t match my Han Xiang."

Li Xian said, "Each has its uniqueness, no person is perfect, nor is any horse flawless." Ju Feng emitted two "chichi" sounds.

Yao Yin laughed crisply, elegantly dismounted the horse. Her skirt followed her body’s motion, blossoming like a flower in an instant.

It was a pity that the view beneath the skirt maintained a small margin, covered tightly, which couldn’t help but cause disappointment. Yao Yin was skilled in martial arts, although wearing a short pleated skirt, still retaining beauty without being immodest.

Yao Yin exclaimed, "All right, let’s take your horse to the stable first, give it some water and forage, we still have to wait a moment. I’ve also made appointments with two doctors."

Li Xian replied, "All right!"

After securing the horses and entrusting a stable boy to care for them, the two waited at the entrance, chatting about other matters. Outside Famous Doctor Pavilion, there were long benches made of bluestone, green trees and stone sculptures, scenery leisurely, waiting was not dull.

A short time later, two more sets of hoofbeats approached.

The newcomers were two men, one dressed in a loose purple robe, with features square and upright, thick brows and a prominent nose, though not handsome, appearing quite decent. The other dressed in a light blue robe, wearing a jade crown, skin dark, ears large, mouth protruding, an ordinary appearance.

These two were famous doctors, their reputation established, specializing in entering residences to treat patients. The man in purple was named Fang Ming, the man in light blue named Ding Heilang.

The two greeted Miss Yao with hands cupped, Yao Yin nodded in acknowledgment, then turned to introduce Li Xian.

Fang Ming and Ding Heilang were affiliated with the Famous Doctor Pavilion, commonly visiting aristocratic families and only coming to the pavilion when necessary. Li Xian, though having been to the pavilion, made no real waves before making a quick exit. Thus, Fang Ming and Ding Heilang were unaware of his deeds.

The two greeted respectfully with hands cupped, Li Xian responded with all propriety, cupping his hands in return. They barely got to know each other.

The Famous Doctor Pavilion’s famous doctors each have horses awarded by the pavilion. Though ordinary, they are quite adequate. Seeing everyone assembled, Yao Yin, along with Li Xian, led out the exotic horses, mounting gracefully, pulling the reins, the four lined up in sequence.

The road for carriages and horses was spacious, allowing them to proceed abreast, with plenty of room. The four moved shoulder to shoulder, Yao Yin on the left, then Li Xian, followed by Fang Ming and Ding Heilang.

Ju Feng was lively in nature, loving to show off its prowess, seeing the road ahead wide open, it wished to gallop wildly. Li Xian projected that Ju Feng’s speed was exceptional, should it run wild, Han Xiang might catch up, but beside them Fang Ming and Ding Heilang would inevitably be left behind. So he gently patted Ju Feng, suppressing its restless spirit.

And moved slowly forward.

Fang Ming and Ding Heilang observed Li Xian wearing a mask, his name unheard of. Initially being slightly contemptuous, but upon seeing his divine horse, an exotic blood horse, immediately changed their perspective, developing a slightly reverential regard for Li Xian.

Fang Ming proactively engaged in conversation, "Brother Li also practices medicine, may we know where you are employed?" Yao Yin found it amusing, listening closely.

Li Xian replied, "I currently work at the Marquis Store at the end of Xifeng Street."

Ding Heilang asked, "Marquis Store... Isn’t this the place of the Gold Appraisal Guard? Li Xian, are you perhaps a military physician stationed here? That must be an exhausting and thankless task."
