In the middle of the night, I didn't hear the rooster crowing, and at dawn the sound of artillery in the village shook the sky, and Su Huihui got up from the bed with his ears plugged, dizzy. She moved her arm, feeling better than yesterday, and removed the wrapped strip of cotton cloth and touched it, the bone should have broken slightly, and there was no major problem. Because the clothes were thick, there were no abrasions on his body, but his knees were bruised.

Yan Xugui, who slept on the haystack, was not in the room for a long time, and the old lady came in with water to wash her, and after she thanked her, she quickly stuffed half of the steamed bun and sorted out her things, but fortunately she didn't lose anything important.

The crystal handkerchief in her sleeve pocket lay down well, and she took the hairpin from her bosom, looked at it for a long time, and inserted it back into her freshly combed bun.

There is a big locust tree in the yard, and the flower dog chases five or six young chickens around the tree, the tail wags very happily, and the firecrackers and the roosters bark and the birds chirp, which is a lively atmosphere of the New Year. The guard at the gate of the courtyard prepared the horses, stepped forward and smiled politely at her:

"Master Su, Gongzi went back to the city to cook important things before he arrived, and when he left, he said that today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and yesterday the pharmacy set up a banquet to invite guests who were not there, so show his face with Mr. Wu at noon, and follow the arrangement of the adults at night." ”

Su Huihui heard that he could go back as much as he could, and his joy was overflowing, and then he thought of the two attacks yesterday, and asked:

"Yan Gongzi said that there was an ambush on the way back to the city, and it will be cleared now?"

The guard smiled bitterly: "I don't know about this, but I heard that the brothers in the forest haven't slept much all night." If Childe can go back early, then it's fine, don't worry, adults. ”

Su Huihui knew that she had asked a lot, she was not the main link in this matter, Yan Xugui naturally would not let a subordinate who knew everything wait for her here, even if she knew, she would not sue her.

The journey back to the city was unexpectedly smooth, and it took less than a few sticks of incense to arrive at the city gate. There were suddenly more pedestrians on the street, and those selling sugar gourds, cutting ribbon paper, shouting cheap jewelry, and setting up stalls and fortune tellers crowded into the market again, which was quite interesting for fifteen yuan. In addition to the residents who returned to the local area for the New Year, there were also businessmen who were still working the road, and used the inn and the annex as a foothold to rest for a few days. Brightly dressed women flocked to the streets to buy exquisite utensils, and there were also families who took their children to the fence to watch juggling.

Not long after entering the city, the carriage of the Huimin Pharmacy in Jiyang Mansion came up at the intersection, and a round-faced doctor in his fifties walked down the ground and bowed his hand to Su Hui:

"Under is the palm print of the pharmacy, my surname is Yang, I have long admired the name of Lord Su, I heard that the adult was out of the city to consult and came back in the morning, so I came to pick up the adult to go to the pharmacy. …… Your hand, my lord?"

She smiled gently, "It's okay, I accidentally fell it." ”

Su Huihui turned his head to look at the guards, presumably it was Yan Xugui's arrangement, she must have attended at noon, so she said:

"Trouble Dr. Yang. Mr. Wu and Doctor Fang are both in the pharmacy now, right? Yesterday they seemed to have something going on, and I came to the pharmacy to look for it but didn't see anyone. ”

Doctor Yang touched his head and said with a smile: "Ah, those doctors from Beijing yesterday were too polite! Our pharmacy admitted a few poor people who were seriously ill and difficult to recover a few months ago, saying that they had paid for the consultation a few years ago, but they had not been able to come over, so they could not find out what the condition was. When Imperial Doctor Yu heard about this, he offered to go to their home for free treatment, and they paid the previous account for a whole day. Halfway through, Dr. Lin came back first to help on duty...... Hey, isn't he with Master Su?"

Su Hui choked warmly, wanting to slander but his worries still prevailed, after all, he was someone who had worked together for a few months, so he frowned and said:

"It was dark, and when I was going down the mountain, I encountered mountain bandits, and Dr. Lin rode away with me. ”

Doctor Yang was shocked: "Mountain bandits, don't have anything to do, then, Doctor Lin...... Our city has always been quiet, when did we have such a strong man!"

The guard on the side spoke: "It's a bandit from a neighboring county, so don't be afraid, and you have been sent to the government by a certain group." ”

His brows were still tightly locked, Su Huihui understood what he was worried about, Lin Qizhi had an accident here after all, and the boss might have a bad impression of Jiaying because of this.

She raised her lips and said: "The Yan family has already sent someone to find it, Lin Qizhi himself is also a doctor, he should know some skills to save himself, and the target of those mountain bandits is the property in my car, and they didn't embarrass him." ”

Physician Yang nodded frequently, "That's good, that's good." Lord Su, please please!"

Before noon, the best food and wine were already prepared in the pharmacy dining room. Knowing that everyone was there, Su Huihui told a few people who came with the pharmacy about Lin Qizhi as soon as he entered the main hall, including the scream she heard.

Fang Yi sighed: "I can't complain about others, if this kid can come back, it will be his own creation." He is alone in the capital, and there are no parents and elders at home, I let him enter the pharmacy when I saw him clever, but I didn't expect that his heart was not right!"

Qi Ming put down the medical case in his hand and comforted him: "Don't worry, sir, it's good news if you don't find it." If he comes back, I'm afraid he won't be able to continue working in the pharmacy, so I'll find a job for him and persuade him more, which will be good for him in the future. ”

Su Huihui said, "At present, we are still mainly negotiating with local pharmacies." Mr. Wu has a lot of experience, so I took a look at it yesterday and what do you think of it?"

Wu Xin still looked like an immobile mountain, and raised his eyelids, "When the old man was in Yuzhou, the sky was high and the emperor was far away, but the pharmacy did a good job, is it here...... It's a bit chilling. However, Jiaying is rich, well-staffed, and a few hairy boys are dedicated enough, so it is still worth changing. ”

Su warmed his hair warmly, "Then leave it to Mr." What does Physician Fang think?"

Fang Yi snorted, "It's all up to the ambassador. ”

Su Hui said with a straight face: "Everyone knows in their hearts, we are here this time under the banner of the Yan family, and on the surface, it is the person from Fanjing who is Yan Gongzi, so the plan is to communicate with them." ”

Qi Ming said: "The housekeeper of the Yan family is the Qin Uncle who came over when recruiting the new, and he took the time to tell us last night, Doctor Su is thoughtful. ”

Su Huihui liked to listen to him the most, and said with a smile: "Let's go to the dining room, don't let people wait in a hurry, the people from the hospital are all here." ”

The dining room of the pharmacy is not large, and in order to show respect for the people from the capital, not only did they order many special dishes from famous restaurants in the city, but they also moved a huge round table from the building. During the banquet, the six doctors came to toast one by one, and Su warmed up with his sleeve to block it, and drank three or four cups in one round.

After three rounds of drinking, the doctors let go of the topic and talked about the customs of their hometown, and their enthusiasm was high.

"Hey, you don't know," a young doctor drank high, and said with a little dialect interest: "The Tianxiang Building in the north of Mingyuefang in the city has a discount these days, and you only need to pay half the price to listen to the music!"

Su warmed up and sipped the wine, and suddenly raised her eyelashes, "Tianxianglou?" The woman said that she was originally a girl from Tianxianglou, who was ransomed by the medicine picker.

The young doctor was a little embarrassed, "That's it...... Oh, Lord Su understands, but there are also merchants' families who bring their maids to listen to the pipa, and at night they are all men. ”

Doctor Zhang from Tai Hospital was also a little dizzy, and sneered: "You are a girl who has never seen Fanjing, that is called Guose Tianxiang! Don't want to buy one without a hundred taels of silver!"

Qi Ming looked at Su Hui's paused chopsticks, felt that something was wrong, drank a small half cup, and asked with a smile: "Brother Zhou, how much is it here?"

"Ah, really, this number—" Physician Zhou stretched out five fingers, thought for a moment, and added another five, "Ten taels...... Haha, your capital is one hundred taels!"

Su Huihui couldn't hold back, "Is it just the past few years? I see that the prices in the city are not high, and ten taels of silver can buy a maid in Fanjing, it must be a first-class girl." ”

Doctor Zhou said: "Last year, I sold two, one was a piano player, and we also met the person who bought it, because he sent medicine to the pharmacy several times.

The men in the pharmacy knew that he had begged a virtuous lady who could read and write, and they were envious of him! There was also a kabuki with a girl who lived in the city for a while after a good life, and then it was said that he had gone to the capital. Oh, her husband treats her badly, he often quarrels, and his body gets worse and worse after getting married.

Su Hui suddenly had a familiar feeling, pinched the wine glass with his fingers, closed his eyes and searched in his memory several times, why?

Physician...... Capital......

Imperial Doctor Zhang took the edamame that served the wine and hiccuped, "The doctor who went to Beijing to make a living, maybe we still recognize it." Brother Zhou was so indignant, he said it to everyone to see, which peer is so unsympathetic?"

Doctor Zhou pressed his forehead, "What's it called...... Yes, yes, the surname Wang seems to be. ”

"Wang Jing?"

Su Huihui suddenly looked at Qi Ming's questioning eyes, and she had just thought of it.

"Oh, Brother Zhou doesn't know, there was a doctor Wang in our pharmacy, there was also a sick lady, and a daughter with him, and he often quarreled, I have to ask him well when I go back, maybe it is this Doctor Wang who doesn't pity the fragrance and cherishes the jade!"

The people at the table laughed, and Doctor Zhou said loudly: "Xiao Qi, you are not kind, don't say that I sued you!"

Su Huihui sighed secretly in his heart, even if it was confirmed, the parties were already dead. The little girl who stayed seemed to have been sent to the health hall, and Sheng Yunyi pretended to be the governor to investigate the case, and invited her to eat a wonton, which happened to be seen by Qi Ming who came out of the yamen.

If it's Wang Jing, then it's very strange. Sheng Yunyi and Yan Xugui said that he was in the secret line of Beijing, and that he was accused of being accused of being with his wife and adopted daughter, and that another ransomed girl married a medicine collector who was suffering from a strange disease, and that the prescription written according to the pulse was very consistent with the poison she had studied and applied to Wang Jing's wife.

Wang Jing is a member of the Yue Domain, was the woman who pulled her to the mountain yesterday also on the orders of this party?

How many such people are still dormant in the cities and countryside of the Qi Kingdom?

In May, after the rainy season, the long-term line of corruption ran through the Southern Qi Dynasty, Jingzhong and Nan'an confronted each other, and various forces under his command began to play.

Si Yan said that the number of violent deaths in the state capital was only increasing, and she blindly thought that he was provoking at the time, but she did not distinguish the truth of what he said.

Su Huihui's face was pale, and he couldn't eat anything anymore.

Several doctors wanted to toast her, but Qi Ming blocked them one by one and accompanied them to drink until the end of the meal. Wu Xin and Fang Yi were old and left the table early, Su Huihui followed them closely, it was quite stable at first, and she began to float after walking ten zhang away, she was holding the door knocker at the gate, and her eyes were full of gold stars.

Just as she was about to fall asleep standing up, the little maid shouted in a crisp voice, "Girl, girl, can you still go?"

Su Huihui lowered his voice and said, "Don't be quiet, you help me go back to the inn to rest." ”

Ruixiang saw that her face was not red, and thought she was normal, but she didn't expect to come right this time. I came from the inn because I was afraid that she would drink too much, and there were still a lot of things to do in the room.

"How much did the girl drink, and she didn't look at it!"

Su Hui had a splitting headache, "I'm watching, what's the use of just seeing it, it's not four and a half cups." Don't shake it, okay?"

“…… What a cup?"

She gestured with her thumb and forefinger.

“…… Four cups is like this?"
