I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon - Chapter 159
Episode 159. Carrots and sticks… use that on horses. (2) Whether it’s
because of Cao Cao’s stern voice or because the spirit that should have come out on the battlefield is emanating from the office, Cao Cao and Cao Deng couldn’t open their mouths and even slightly clenched their teeth.
Jojo looked at the two of them and continued talking.
“Although grandfather and father are not blood-mixed, they are better friends than any rich man in the world. That’s why my grandfather spent thousands of dollars to put my father on the throne this time.”
“You who know that, are you showing yourself like this now?”
“Father and grandfather, who do not share a drop of blood, can be like that, so why don’t you acknowledge the relationship between the father and me, who have formed brotherly righteousness?”
“That’s…”
Jo Sung tried to make an excuse, but Jo Deung raised his hand to stop it.
“Yes, keep talking. Soong, don’t stop talking.”
“father. All right.”
Jojo’s grandfather’s eyes turned much colder, but he didn’t care and opened his mouth.
“What is a poor guy who can’t protect the one he has taken as his younger brother, what is he going to do after getting a job in the government? I will retire and return to my hometown.”
Cao Cao adjusted his collar, bowed his head, and was about to turn around, but Cao Deng suddenly laughed.
“Heh heh…. I saw him as a child, but now he’s all grown up. There is a better side than this one. It’s really dignified.”
Jojo, who was about to leave, stopped.
Jo Deung chuckled, but in fact, he was surprised by the spirit of his grandson.
Who dares to show himself like this in front of heaven and earth? Even a general on the battlefield would not dare to do so.
I like the look of the grandson with that alone, but what about the achievements he made anyway? Thanks to that ball, he was able to maintain his prestige and place his adopted son, Cao Song, on the throne.
In the current situation, if Jojo abandons his post and leaves home, the achievements so far may be in vain.
Although the grandson’s actions were surprising and reprehensible, he had no choice but to yield as long as he showed such determination.
“Is your agenda maker a serious kid enough to throw off the government post?”
“Your grandfather. Didn’t I tell you earlier? He’s the first guy I fell for in my life.”
“No matter how serious it is, is it serious enough to turn your back on your father and grandfather?”
At Jo Deung’s words, Jo Jo turned around and straightened up, looking at his grandfather and father again.
“I never turned my back on my grandfather and father. It’s just that I’m ashamed of myself for not being recognized as an agenda by the two of them, no, I can’t keep one agenda.”
“Heh heh, you’ve really grown up enough that I don’t have to worry about you anymore. I get it. From today on, I will treat you as my own grandson. So wear this again.”
When Jo Deung held out his breastplate, Jo Jo looked at his grandfather in disbelief.
“Will you really value wealth?”
“I will. Oh, it hurts so much when I tried to give this away. I’ll tell the first officer in my imperial palace to get you a new breastplate. state visit.”
When Jo Deung called, a eunuch outside hurriedly came in and bowed his head.
“Yes, Mr. Byeong-Hoo.”
“Even with this, go to the yardmaster and ask him to make you a new breastplate.”
“All right.”
When the eunuch disappeared with the breastplate, Jo Deung looked at Jo Jo with a very proud expression.
“I have led you until now, but seeing today, you will lead me from now on. Heh heh heh…..”

As promised with Jojo, the fireman packed his things and left the imperial capital that day.
While leaving the ecliptic, Janggoe approached the fireman and quietly opened his mouth.
“Senator, several groups are following us, what should we do?”
After listening to Janggoe’s words, the fireman thought for a while before answering.
“I’ll stay in a nearby village, so attach the executioner to follow me.”
“All right.”
The painter had just left the imperial capital, but he deliberately stayed in the village to spend the night.
When the night passed and morning came, the executioners who had been monitoring the tailers returned and reported.
“The person I followed entered toward the north gate of the imperial palace. More than that, the guards couldn’t catch up.”
“The person I followed entered toward the east gate of the imperial palace.”
“The person I followed went into the imperial family.”
In an instant, the fireman’s eyes widened.
“Are you the mother-in-law? Are you talking about the head of the post of Jo Bi-jeong?”
“yes.”
“All right. You did a good job.”
“yes.”
When the executioners withdrew, the firefighter agonized over it with Okju and Haman.
“If it’s the north gate, it’s likely that the eunuchs sent it, and if it’s the east gate, it’s likely that it’s sent by high-ranking officials.”
“And Jo’s wife must have been sent by Bijeonghu Jo.”
“yes.”
“Jo Bijeonghu already tried to recruit me and even sent my brother Jo so I can keep an eye on him, but why are the other eunuchs and dignitaries monitoring me?”
When the painter tilted his head, Okju Harman, the master of warfare, could not easily give an answer and tilted his head as well.
“well. Aren’t they coveting you as an exclusive doctor?”
“If I had, I would have said something. It’s strange that you follow me without saying anything.”
The three of them only tilted their heads as nothing came to mind even after thinking about it.
“Well, with time, you will know the purpose. It looks like this village is also a slum, so let’s stay for a few days and check the situation.”
“All right.”
The painter set up a tent in a slum not far from Hwangdo and opened a makeshift medical room.
While the painter was doing this, Jojo appeared around noon.
Jojo did not say that he had taken off his breastplate in front of his grandfather and father, but instead told the result.
“…well, it’s been resolved. I didn’t mean to be a public official, but I made a little noise out of my sorryness. My grandfather also said he would see you as his grandson like me from now on.”
“is it so? Then I have a grandfather too.”
“yes.”
“Haha, to suddenly have a grandfather… I’m a little bewildered.”
“What are you confused about? I already told you to think of your mother as if you were my own mother and pay attention to your younger siblings back home.”
“It does. Haha Jo Bi-Jung-Hoo is the grandfather! It doesn’t feel much more real than having you become my brother-in-law.”
“Let’s go and say hello together.”
Jojo shrugged his shoulders as he thought that it would be good for the fireman in many ways when his grandfather became his back.
The painter nodded as he thought he should say hello.
In fact, I don’t know what Jojo did, but I had a good idea of how difficult it was to change the minds of people like Jo Deung.
“I, who listens to the voice of God, will become my grandson… I cannot go empty-handed. I have a medicine in the making, so please wait a moment.”
“What were you making? Were you making medicine for your grandfather by any chance?”
“I’m making it for a very serious patient, and since it seems like it would suit my grandfather, I’d like to give one as a gift.”
“one! I only have one, but I have to give you a few to my grandfather.”
“Brother, this is really rare and difficult to make. It may not be enough to bring the dead back to life, but it’s enough to keep the dying alive. So even if I want to give you a lot, I have nothing to give.”
Looking at the painter’s expression, Jojo’s eyes were filled with anticipation.
Among the great doctors, the painter who hears the rumors of the famous doctor is a character who does not show much condolence even when he spares a dying patient. Seeing him say this about one medicine, I could guess how precious it must be.
“Yeah, I can’t ask for more if you say that. By the way… I also go out to the battlefield and fight, and there may come a time when I am in danger… How can I not have mine?”
“Hmm…”
The fireman couldn’t answer right away and pondered for a while. And after taking a long sigh, he opened his mouth.
“I will give you a slightly different medicine. You should only take that medicine when it’s really dangerous. The effect of the medicine is to reduce pain by about half a second and increase strength… Instead, when the effect wears off, you become lethargic for a while, so think carefully before using it when your life is really in danger.”
“Is there any medicine for that?”
Jojo asked, eyes wide.
“It’s slander, so I can’t make disciples yet. And I won’t do it in the future. It is a slander that I will make and seal only for my brother.”
“her! that’s right Thank you so much for that. But if it’s that kind of medicine… If you make several…”
“Only one is precious. Since you are my older brother, please think of it as making it for me.”
When the painter showed a determined attitude, Jojo only ate his appetite inwardly, but did not push himself.
“I get it. Thank you very much.”
After a while, Jojo watched the painter make the medicine.
He brought in some unknown liquid, poured oil on it, dipped it in charcoal again, and later made something using paper, which is said to be rare even in the imperial palace.
