Chapter 15 Li Chengqian's Determination
"Manager Chen, your words yesterday have given me much to reflect upon."
He glanced at Li Chengqian beside him and spoke.
"I have two thoughts for today's return."
"Firstly, it's to let my son see the new and wonderful things in this world and broaden his horizons."
"Secondly, I also want to take advantage of this precious space provided by the shopkeeper so that my father and I can set aside some of the formalities of the palace, change our mindset, and have a proper conversation."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Di nodded slightly, a hint of pride in his eyes.
Although Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, was indeed a very good emperor!
However, when it came to being a father, he believed that Emperor Taizong of Tang was not as good as him!
At least, he didn't cause a situation where father and son killed each other.
Chen Mo smiled and said in a relaxed tone.
"Exactly! It's good that Boss Li has come to his senses! There's no such thing as a grudge that lasts overnight between father and son! His Highness the Crown Prince is clearly a reasonable person!"
Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian hurriedly cupped his hands in greeting.
"Just call me Chengqian."
After saying that, Chen Mo quickly invited the two of them to come inside and sit down.
Seeing this, Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin, and only after Li Shimin nodded did he limp into the house.
Chen Mo looked at his expression, pondered for a moment, and then spoke.
"Actually... Chengqian's leg isn't entirely incurable."
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire hotel fell into a deathly silence.
Li Shimin suddenly turned his head, his eyes fixed on Chen Mo.
All the previous composure vanished, leaving only a frantic eagerness and ecstasy.
He strode up to Chen Mo and excitedly grabbed Chen Mo's arm.
"What...what did you say?! Shopkeeper Chen! What did you just say?!"
Li Shimin's voice trembled slightly.
"Chengqian's leg...you can cure it?! Are you serious?! You're not just playing with me?!"
Li Shimin was very strong, and Chen Mo grimaced in pain.
Li Chengqian, standing to the side, froze in place as if struck by lightning.
His leg ailment was the source of his deepest pain and inferiority complex.
Since the injury, he has sought out famous doctors all over the world, tried countless prescriptions and medicines, and even prayed to gods and Buddhas, but all to little avail. He has long been told that he will never recover.
This disability is like a shackle, locking him inside.
After all, there has never been a disabled emperor in history.
Despite being the crown prince, he suffered from a leg ailment. Who could know how much pressure and pain he had endured over the years?
He had long accepted this fact, even regarding it as a destiny he had to bear.
But now, this person in front of me claims that his leg ailment can be cured!
A tremendous shock and a faint but irrepressible glimmer of hope, like a flood bursting its banks, instantly shattered the calm and composure he had been trying to maintain.
Those eyes, which always carried a hint of melancholy and caution, now blazed with an unprecedented, burning light as they stared intently at Chen Mo, forgetting even to breathe.
"Mr. Chen...Mr. Chen..."
Li Chengqian's voice was extremely dry and trembling violently.
"You...you're saying...is it true? My leg...really...is there still hope?"
"Ouch! Old Li, be gentle!"
Chen Mo cried out in pain, paused, and then spoke.
"I'm not sure either, but with our current medical technology, even if it can't be cured, we can still make him like a normal person."
"Of course, the chances of it being cured are still quite high."
He couldn't guarantee a cure, only that there was a high probability.
After all, you can't be too definitive with your words, or you'll end up feeling disappointed and embarrassed.
"How can this be improved?! What kind of medicinal herbs are needed? What kind of medical skills? Shopkeeper Chen, just name your name, and I... I will find them for you, no matter where they are in the world!"
Upon hearing this, Li Shimin was so excited that he became incoherent.
The improvement in his son's leg condition excited him more than any political achievement or accomplishment.
Although he was particularly strict with Li Chengqian, his expectations and care for him were genuine.
Li Chengqian was so excited that he could hardly contain himself.
He staggered forward, almost bowing down to Chen Mo.
"Please...please, Mr. Chen, lend a helping hand! If...if it can really improve the situation."
"Chengqian... Chengqian will never forget your great kindness!"
Chen Mo pondered for a moment, then scratched his head.
"I do know a little about medicine, but Chengqian should probably go to the hospital for a checkup."
"Hospital?"
Li Shimin frowned slightly.
"Yes, a hospital is... a place specifically for treating illnesses. It's probably much larger than your Imperial Medical Academy, and the doctors there are more professional, specializing in various fields."
Chen Mo explained.
"We need to use all sorts of sophisticated instruments there to carefully examine Chengqian's leg, to see clearly what the condition of the bones and muscles inside is, whether it's an old injury that hasn't healed, or blocked meridians, or some other problem."
"Only after identifying the cause of the illness can the most appropriate treatment be determined, which may be medication, physical therapy, etc."
Seeing the puzzled looks on Li Shimin and Li Chengqian's faces, Chen Mo explained.
"Uh, it's something like massage and stretching, and maybe... maybe a minor surgery is needed."
After speaking, Chen Mo paused for a moment, carefully observing the reactions of the two people.
Sure enough, when Li Shimin heard unfamiliar words like "instrument," "examination," and "surgery," his face showed obvious hesitation and worry.
He was an emperor, accustomed to controlling everything.
But faced with this completely unknown and seemingly unbelievable medical technology from later generations, he instinctively became wary.
Therefore, Li Shimin turned his attention to Li Chengqian.
However, to Li Shimin's surprise—
Li Chengqian hesitated almost without any hesitation!
Li Chengqian took a deep breath, stepped forward, looked intently at Chen Mo, and spoke with unwavering determination, without the slightest hesitation.
"Shopkeeper Chen, there's no need to hesitate, and no need to ask Father Emperor! I'm willing!"
After saying this, Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin, his eyes filled with earnestness and unprecedented initiative.
"Father! I am well aware that there may be unknown dangers involved, but this illness has plagued me for many years, and I am willing to try as long as there is a glimmer of hope!"
Li Chengqian knelt down with difficulty.
"Please grant my request, Father! Whatever the outcome, I will have no complaints!"
Li Shimin felt a sudden jolt when he saw the unwavering determination in Li Chengqian's eyes.
He suddenly realized that he seemed to have underestimated the impact of his leg ailment on his son.
At the same time, he felt somewhat gratified.
This was the first time his son had expressed such a clear and proactive demand to him.
The Crown Prince has already said so!
If he still doesn't agree, then the rift between father and son may never be mended.
Li Shimin nodded heavily, having no more doubts, and said to Chen Mo with unwavering certainty.
"Very well! Since Chengqian is so determined, how could I possibly stop him!"
"Manager Chen, everything will be as you say! We'll go to that hospital now! Just tell us what expenses and equipment we need!"
Chen Mo smiled slightly.
"Alright! Since you two trust me, let's not delay any longer!"
"but……"
Chen Mo looked at the clothes the two were wearing.
Even though it's already my everyday clothes, these clothes are still not suitable for going to the hospital.
"However, you'll need to change your clothes, and..."
Chen Mo remained silent for a moment, a hint of hesitation flashing across his face.
"You don't seem to have ID cards..."
"ID card?"
Upon hearing this, Li Shimin seemed to have thought of something, took something out of his pocket, and asked.
"Is this what Shopkeeper Chen meant?"
Chen Mo took the item from Li Shimin's hand and examined it carefully.
The next second, he was completely dumbfounded.
Name: Li Shimin
Sex: Male
Ethnicity: Han
Born: June 1990, 1
Address: No. 1 Zhenguan Road, Yanta District, Anxi City, Shaanxi Province, Datang Everbright City
Citizen ID Number: ...
Chen Mo: ? ? ?
"No way! Where did you get this thing?"
Li Shimin scratched his head.
"This thing was already in my pocket when I came here."
