The reason why he could hold his current position was not only because of his age and decent medical skill, but also due to his connection with the Emperor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Emperor, despite not being young, has always been in good spirits, and in Physician-in-Chief Lu’s view, should have no problem living another decade or two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this was because Emperor Xuanming consistently cooperated with maintaining a healthy pulse and sought treatment when sick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t one to hide his illness and avoid medical treatment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But lately, too many things have been happening, causing Physician-in-Chief Lu a constant sense of unease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Grandfather, did you call me back hurriedly today just to talk about this?\" Lu Sangqi said discontentedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Physician-in-Chief Lu angrily gave him a light tap with a stick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the force wasn’t heavy, Lu Sangqi didn’t even try to dodge it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Physician-in-Chief Lu couldn’t help but let out a sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You child, you’ve been staying in the capital all these years, you’re not exactly young anymore. Isn’t it time you agree with Grandfather to find a suitable wife?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Sangqi acted as if he hadn’t heard, gulped down his tea, stood up, and started walking out: \"Grandfather, there are a lot of patients waiting at my shop, I won’t chat with you now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You stop right there!
