Chapter 527: Hesitation
The Empress Dowager Mu did not see her in the courtyard of Mrs. Mu.
Mu Jin followed Mrs. Gu Changhou to the pavilion in the garden, which was built on an artificial lake in the garden, surrounded by water on three sides, and only one winding path led to the pavilion.
Great view and a great place to talk.
Mrs. Guchang Hou took Mu Jin over and retreated, personally guarding the path leading to the artificial lake.
Mu Jin slowly walked into the pavilion, and there was a **** sitting inside, slowly drinking a cup of tea, with eyebrows trimmed, fair skin, and a touch of coldness between his eyebrows and eyes.
"Are you Mu Jin?" Seeing Mu Jin come in, she raised her delicately trimmed eyebrows and looked at Mu Jin carefully.
Mu Jin was neither humble nor arrogant, and saluted indifferently.
"I heard that your family lives in Baiyun Peak?" Empress Dowager Mu's voice was a little faint.
Mu Jin nodded with a smile, "Exactly!"
"Presumptuous, dare to lie in front of the mourning family?" Empress Dowager Mu slapped the tea cup on the stone table heavily, making a crisp sound.
She stared at Mu Jin with a stern expression, and snorted coldly, "Do you really think that the mourning family doesn't know? There are only dense forests in Baiyun Peak, where is there any Mujia Village?"
"What is your plan to conceal your origin? The mourning family advises you to invite you truthfully. ”
Mu Jin frowned and looked at the Empress Dowager Mu in confusion, "The Empress Dowager has been to Baiyun Peak?"
Empress Dowager Mu's expression was slightly condensed, and she returned to normal after a moment, looking at Mu Jin coldly, "The mourning family has not been there, but it does not mean that others have not been there." ”
Mu Jin smiled lightly, "Yes, there are heavy dense forests in Baiyun Peak, what about behind the dense forests?
The Empress Dowager frowned, and her face was very displeased.
"I guess the person the Empress Dowager said about going there shouldn't have been after the jungle, right?"
"Hmph, after the dense forest, there is only wilderness, there is no village at all, don't try to deceive the mourning family. The Empress Dowager glanced at Mu Jin obliquely.
"What about behind the wilderness?" Mu Jin stood on the edge of the pavilion unhurriedly and pointed to the outside of the pavilion, "For example, this lake, from the pavilion, you can only see that it is full of water, and you can vaguely see a garden on the other side of the lake, but after the garden, if you haven't been there, how do you know where there will be many pavilions?"
Empress Dowager Mu followed her line of sight and looked out.
The garden of the Guchang Marquis Mansion is very large, built around the entire lake, and looking across from the pavilion, you can vaguely see the tall camphor trees on the opposite bank, but you can't see the courtyard behind the camphor trees at all.
Her face changed slightly.
Mu Jin turned his head with a smile, "Empress Dowager, I am indeed from Mujia Village in Baiyun Peak. ”
It's just Baiyunfeng Mujia Village more than a thousand years later.
"There are countless forks and paths behind that wilderness, and my family is not easy to find, and there is a formation arranged by our family outside the village, so outsiders can't enter the village at all. Mu Jin's clear eyes met the Empress Dowager Mu.
"The Empress Dowager, I really don't need to lie to you, when the old lady is cured, I will take the consultation fee and leave, I will go to many places in Da Zhou. ”
Empress Dowager Mu's brows moved, her eyes stared at Mu Jin tightly, and she saw that the girl opposite looked at her calmly, and her apricot eyes were as clear as water.
Her expression softened slightly, "How are you going to treat the old lady's illness?"
Mu Jin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Empress Dowager Mu's expression just now didn't seem to be fake, and her tone was cold and sharp, as if she had really been to Baiyun Peak.
Mu Jin felt that it should be her own illusion, she was the empress dowager of Jingchang, how could she go to Baiyun Peak?
She didn't know whether Empress Dowager Mu was cheating on her or really asking her, all she could do was stick to her original statement.
What's more, she really wanted to treat Mrs. Mu, and after getting along for a few days, she had a good impression of the strong Mrs. Mu, and she felt very kind.
In fact, Guchanghou and his wife treated her very politely, and Mu Jin had a good impression of the Mu family.
"First use acupuncture, moxibustion and medicinal mud hot compress to eliminate joint swelling, then use medicine to regulate, reduce inflammation, and then start joint function exercises, and finally use medicine to improve the old lady's own immunity, so as not to relapse. Mu Jin gave a general explanation of the treatment plan he had formulated for Mrs. Mu.
Empress Dowager Mu did not speak after listening.
Mu Jin explained the treatment process very bluntly, although she didn't understand medical skills, she also understood.
"Are you sure the old lady will be cured within a month?" After a moment of silence, she asked Mu Jin with a frown.
Mu Jin nodded, she had always been confident in her medical skills.
"Then the mourning family will give you a month, if the time is up, the old lady is not cured, and the mourning family will punish you. Empress Dowager Mu's face sank, and her voice became cold.
The corners of Mu Jin's mouth curled, and she curtsied, "I'm afraid the Empress Dowager will be disappointed, because you don't have this opportunity." ”
With that, she turned and stepped out of the gazebo.
"Wait a minute!" came the voice of Empress Dowager Mu behind him.
Mu Jin turned around and blinked his eyes.
Empress Dowager Mu seemed to regret that she had stopped her, pursed her lips tightly, and hesitated for a moment before she spoke, "Is there a way you can save .......?"
Speaking of this, she paused, her expression became very irritable again, and finally she didn't say anything, and waved her hand, "It's okay, you can get busy first." ”
Mu Jin bowed his head slightly, turned around and left, but he had some doubts in his heart, the expression of the Empress Dowager Mu just now was clearly something she wanted to say to herself, but for some reason she didn't say anything in the end.
She seemed to be saying that there was no way to save her......
Is there something incurable about her, or is there someone around her who needs to be saved?
She came to Mrs. Mu's courtyard somewhat absent-mindedly.
Holly had already laid out the medicine and tools she needed.
"Acupuncture, moxibustion and hot compresses of medicinal mud take a whole morning, and I don't want anyone to disturb me during this process. Mu Jin said to Gu Changhou, who was guarding the courtyard.
Gu Changhou nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, Lady Mu, I will personally guard the courtyard and won't let people disturb you." ”
With Gu Changhou's assurance, Mu Jin went in with confidence.
The time of the morning passed in a flash, and when Mu Jin finally removed the medicinal mud from Mrs. Mu's body little by little, it was already time to set up lunch.
"After three days, we will rest for two days and then start the next course again. Mu Jin gave the medicinal mud to Holly and told her to throw it away, before telling Mrs. Mu about the treatment schedule.
Old Madam Mu naturally had no objections.
After cleaning up, when Mu Jin came out, he saw that the person guarding the courtyard had become Mrs. Guchanghou.
She blinked her eyes in surprise, "What about Master Hou?"
Mrs. Guchang Hou smiled, "There is an urgent matter in the palace, and the Hou Ye accompanied the Empress Dowager back to the palace." ”
