"What's wrong?" Mrs. Zhuang had been paying attention to Mu Qingge, and when she saw the change in her expression, she immediately asked.

Mu Qingge glanced at the room full of people, shook his head, and said, "It's nothing, Zhuang Xiaogongzi's pulse is a little strange, I want to take another look." ”

"Daughter-in-law, you take Xia Gongzi and them to rest, it's really hard for them along the way." Mrs. Zhuang motioned to Zhuang Cheng to take Xia Yi and them out.

"But, mother, I want to know Ze'er......"

"Don't worry, you are Ze'er's mother, when Gongzi Qin has the result here, I will definitely inform you as soon as possible." Mrs. Zhuang said, with a tone that could not be refused.

"Okay, the daughter-in-law has retired."

Zhuang Cheng took Xia Yi and them away with some reluctance.

"Qin Gongzi, what is the situation with my grandson?" Mrs. Zhuang hurriedly grabbed Mu Qingge's hand, and when she saw her little grandson lying on the bed, Mrs. Zhuang was really uncomfortable.

"Madam, don't worry, in this case of Zhuang Xiaogongzi, I preliminarily conclude that it is poisoning." Mu Qing said.

"Poisoned?" Mrs. Zhuang almost fell directly to the ground, but fortunately Mu Qingge was holding her.

"What poison? Is there any salvation? Mrs. Zhuang reacted, and asked anxiously, holding Mu Qingge's hand.

"Don't worry, listen to me slowly." Mu Qingge pulled Mrs. Zhuang to sit down and looked outside again.

Mrs. Zhuang was a smart person, and she also reacted. Zhuang Ze is just a child, and there are many people in the family who take care of him, and most of the people who can poison him are still people from his own family.

Seeing that Mrs. Zhuang had calmed down, Mu Qingge continued: "What is in Zhuang Xiaogongzi is a poisonous weed called fox and fox grass, which only grows in extremely cold areas. So, few people know. This poisonous weed is very domineering, as long as it starts to attack, it can no longer be helped. ”

Seeing that Mrs. Zhuang's face was pale, Mu Qingge hurriedly said: "Young Master Zhuang's poison has not yet attacked, and this fall has helped him a lot." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Mrs. Zhuang was puzzled.

"According to Zhuang Xiaogongzi's situation, the person who poisoned him was probably afraid of being discovered, and the amount of poison was very small each time. But it's been a long time, that's why the little boy's body has suffered like this. The little boy was injured in this fall, and the person who poisoned him probably thought that he would definitely die, so he stopped poisoning. Otherwise. I'm afraid what we see now is already the corpse of Zhuang Xiaogongzi......" Mu Qingge's face was not very good.

When he woke up, his physical condition was similar to that of Zhuang Ze now. Afraid of scaring Su Mu and Poria, he secretly pricked himself with needles and exercised every day, during those days. It's torture when you think about it.

"Then, Qin Gongzi, can you save Ze'er?" Mrs. Zhuang saw that Mu Qingge suddenly stopped talking halfway, and waited uneasily for a while, and finally couldn't help asking.

Mu Qingge came back to his senses and said apologetically: "I have never seen this kind of poisonous weed, and the reason why I know this kind of thing is because the master told me about it once." The master said that there is no antidote to this poison, and I don't deserve to understand the medicine, but I can try to use acupuncture to force the poison out, but I am not completely sure. ”

"This ......," Mrs. Zhuang was also entangled. If you don't have complete certainty, what if you can't cure it and kill you? However, other doctors couldn't even diagnose what Zhuang Ze's problem was.

Mrs. Zhuang struggled for a while, and finally gritted her teeth and said, "I believe in Qin Gongzi, please let it go." Failure to ...... Either way, I don't blame you. ”

"You don't have to be so depressed, although the master said that there is no antidote, but maybe the person who poisoned him may not have a way to detoxify. After all, people who can use this poisonous weed must know it well. Mu Qingge comforted Mrs. Zhuang. Zhuang Xiaogongzi's life will not be in danger for the time being. ”

"How? How's Ze'er? Seeing Mu Qingge and Mrs. Zhuang coming out, Zhuang Cheng couldn't care about being rude and asked eagerly.

"Zhuang Xiaogongzi's pulse is special, I'm not sure. I'll have to go back and think about it. Mu Qingge said with some shame.

"Then there is Lao Qin's son." Zhuang Cheng's disappointment was palpable.

On the other side, Shang Qirui looked at Song Zhifu and Wu Tongju, who were kneeling on the ground, and finally shook his hand and left.

"Your Highness, where are you going?" The two guards hurried to follow.

"Those two bastards!" Shang Qirui was angry, no matter what he said, the two of them only bit to death without silver. It's just this time. There was no time to investigate the evidence of corruption by these two bastards, and when the rainstorm came, the entire Wucheng would be ruined.

Looking at the lively crowd on the street, thinking that soon, these people would ruin their families, Shang Qirui couldn't move.

"Why are these people talking about the dealer? Is the dealer amazing? Doctor Ji understood that Shang Qirui was angry, so he found a topic to divert his attention.

"You don't know the dealer, huh? Alien, right? The dealer is the richest man in our Wucheng, and he is a good man, but it's a pity, God doesn't bless the good guys......" an old man standing next to him said enthusiastically.

Shang Qirui didn't listen to what the old man said later, and he almost jumped up when he heard the dealer. Banker, the richest man!

"Your Highness, where are you going?" Doctor Ji hurriedly chased after him.

"Go to the dealer!" Shang Qirui said with some excitement.

Makers? Richest? Is it to borrow money from the dealer? Several people glanced at each other and shook their heads, this kind of thing, I'm afraid it's not easy to do.

Shang Qirui asked the way to Zhuangfu, and ran straight over. As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw the door open from the inside. Shang Qirui was stunned, what is the situation?

"Qin Gongzi, then I'm sorry for you, I'll wait for your news tomorrow." Mrs. Zhuang sent Mu Qingge and his party out.

As soon as Mu Qingge went out, he saw Shang Qirui and the five people standing outside, and he was really startled, and he didn't even hear what Mrs. Zhuang said.

"Qin Ge, is it really you?" Shang Qirui was also stunned for a moment when he saw Mu Qingge coming out, and then shouted happily.

"Three, I've seen the Third Highness." Mu Qingge was extremely depressed in his heart, and he deliberately avoided all the way, but he didn't expect to meet here. But fortunately, he didn't recognize himself as Mu Qingge.

Shang Qirui took two steps forward, stared at Mu Qingge for a while, and suddenly hugged her in his arms: "It's really you!" Where did you go? Do you know that I've been looking for you for a long time? ”

Everyone was stupefied, what was going on? Especially the Ji military doctor Xia Yi and the others who knew Mu Qingge's true identity, they were all dying, but there was nothing they could do.

Mu Qingge's body stiffened, this disciple! Pushing Shang Qirui away a little, Mu Qingge said with a smile: "Your Highness, so many people are watching." ”

"Just look at it, you're not a woman, what are you afraid of? You kid. There are a lot of thoughts. Although Shang Qirui said this, he still let go of Mu Qingge. I don't know why, but I felt much better when I saw him.

"Ahem." Mu Qingge coughed twice unnaturally, and then turned back to Mrs. Zhuang. "Mrs. Zhuang, this is His Royal Highness the Third Prince."

Mrs. Zhuang had heard Mu Qingge's title before, but she didn't dare to imagine that the person in front of her was the third prince, so she didn't move. At this time, when he heard Mu Qingge's introduction, he hurriedly led a group of people to kneel: "See the Third Highness." ”

Xia Yi and the others also knelt down. Only Mu Qingge was left standing stupidly, not knowing whether to kneel or not.

Doctor Ji took advantage of this time and pulled Mu Qingge aside: "What's going on?" ”

"Master." Mu Qingge was also anxious, "Why did you come to the dealer's house?" ”

Doctor Ji thought about it and whispered a few words in Mu Qingge's ear. Mu Qingge was startled, looked back at Shang Qirui, and found that he had been invited in by Mrs. Zhuang.

Mu Qingge hesitated for a moment, and also said a few words in the ear of Doctor Ji. Doctor Ji's expression became a little strange, and he looked at Mu Qingge in surprise.

"Master, let's go first. When you're done. I'll come back to you again. Mu Qingge took Su Mu and the others to say goodbye.

"Doctor Ji, Your Royal Highness, please come in." A guard came out of the banker's house and saw that there was only one military doctor, and he was a little strange, "Hey, what about Brother Qin?" ”

"Oh, they're gone." Doctor Ji said casually, raising his feet and walking inside.

The guard was stunned for a moment, and saw that there was no longer Mu Qingge's shadow, so he had to follow in.

When Doctor Ji walked into the house. Shang Qirui had just finished his words, and when he saw that only Doctor Ji came in alone, he couldn't help but ask, "What about Qin Ge?" ”

"He's got something to do, so let's go first." Doctor Ji said deliberately very easily.

"You're going to let him go?" Shang Qirui frowned. Displeasure is written on the face. He looked for the person he had been looking for for so long to find, and he just left?

"Your Highness, don't worry, Gongzi Qin will come tomorrow to treat the grandson of the people's woman." Mrs. Zhuang is a smart person, and she is busy with Shang Qirui.

Shang Qirui's face improved at this time, and he symbolically asked Mrs. Zhuang's grandson what illness he was and how he met Qin Ge.

Mrs. Zhuang roughly explained the situation on the road. also talked about the situation of Zhuang Ze.

"Qin Ge said that he was not sure?" Shang Qirui frowned, hesitated, and still pointed at Doctor Ji Jun and said, "This is Qin Ge's master, why don't you let him take a look at it again?" ”

Mrs. Zhuang was only surprised by Shang Qirui's identity before, and she didn't hear Mu Qingge call the military doctor "master". Thinking that Mu Qingge said that the fox grass was sued by her master, maybe this Ji military doctor has a way to detoxify? Mrs. Zhuang was immediately overjoyed and agreed.

Hurriedly stood up and saluted Shang Qirui and Doctor Ji respectively: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness, then I will bother Mr. Ji...... The women brought Mr. Ji over, Your Highness, and you chatted. ”

Shang Qirui didn't want to see Zhuang Ze originally, he was only interested in the banker's silver, so he sat down according to Mrs. Zhuang's words and didn't move.

Doctor Ji is suffering, Mu Qingge's medical skills are no worse than him. He, the master, is just a shield. Therefore, seeing Mrs. Zhuang's happy face, Doctor Ji felt very guilty. Today, she is destined to be disappointed.

However, after taking the pulse, Doctor Ji's face changed. Such a special poison, does he want to say it?

"Is it fox grass?" Mrs. Zhuang saw that Doctor Ji was embarrassed, and took the initiative to ask.

"Qin Ge has already sued you?"

"Yes, can you cure it?" Mrs. Zhuang asked expectantly.

"Now that Qin Ge has been diagnosed, it's time to sue you, there's no antidote to this poison, right?" Doctor Ji said a little unbearably.

"Qin Gongzi said that he could try to use acupuncture to force the poison out, but he was not completely sure." Mrs. Zhuang was disappointed, "Sir, is there no other way?" ”

Doctor Ji smiled bitterly and shook his head, don't talk about other methods, even acupuncture and moxibustion techniques, he is not as powerful as Mu Qingge. The military doctor is good at trauma.

Back in the living room, Doctor Ji and Mrs. Zhuang both found the atmosphere a little awkward.

"Your Highness, I can't hide it, the affairs of the grass people's family have always been decided by the lady. Therefore, what His Highness said, the grass people still have to discuss it with their wife before they can reply to His Highness. Seeing Mrs. Zhuang coming, Master Zhuang said to Shang Qi very seriously.

Doctor Ji and the others were stunned, even if Master Zhuang was unwilling to borrow silver. You don't have to make such a bad excuse, do you? also pushed his wife to the front, which is really contemptible!

Shang Qirui had a hint of respect in his eyes, and said: "It seems that Master Zhuang is also a man of temperament, and His Royal Highness has no reason not to agree." ”

Master Zhuang said offended. Leave with Mrs. Zhuang.

After a while, Master Zhuang and Mrs. Zhuang returned.

"Your Highness, you build a dike, this is for the benefit of the people of the entire Wucheng. The women were grateful and wanted to help. But. Two million taels of silver, this is really not a small amount......" This time Mrs. Zhuang spoke directly, and the embarrassment was written on her face.

Although they all knew that she was refusing, there was no way to refute it. Even if he is the richest man in Wucheng, there is no reason why he can take out two million taels of silver at once, right? Besides, this is borrowing silver, which is originally a matter of the government, and it is shameful enough to borrow silver from the people, can it still be robbed?

Shang Qirui didn't want the dealer to pay all the two million taels, but when he heard this, he wanted to be cheeky and say how much he could.

Doctor Ji spoke first: "I don't know what kind of business the dealer does?" ”

What does that mean? Everyone was stunned. Shang Qirui was the first to react, his eyes flashed with joy, and he said: "That's right, if the things used to build the embankment are provided by the dealer, it should save a lot of silver, right?" ”

Mrs. Zhuang and Master Zhuang glanced at each other and nodded: "There is no problem with this." ”

The dealer's business spreads from all walks of life, and most of the things used to build the dam are stones and soil, which is not much money for the dealer, and she has no reason not to agree.

Thinking about Shang Qirui's identity. and the close relationship between Mu Qingge and Shang Qirui. Mrs. Zhuang hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Your Highness, in the east of Wucheng, there is a street called Lingyun Street. The people living there are all the poorest people in Wucheng, who can't eat enough three meals a day. If Your Highness asks these people to build the dam, they can be satisfied with three meals a day without pay. ”

Shang Qirui's eyes brightened, and he waved at Mrs. Zhuang: "Thank you, madam." ”

Mrs. Zhuang naturally didn't dare to accept Shang Qirui's courtesy, but she was still moved. A dignified prince. can do this for the people, what else can't she do?

"Your Highness, the food and drink of the people who build the embankment will be taken care of by the dealer." Before leaving, Mrs. Zhuang said again.

Shang Qirui didn't make a fuss this time, but said very seriously: "Mrs. Zhuang, don't worry, this time, I will not make you suffer a loss." ”

Mrs. Zhuang's heart moved, she didn't ask more, she just said some good things for the people and the country.

Out of the dealer, Shang Qirui's expression is obviously good, and now a large part of the problem has been solved. If you go and ask the Song Governor's Mansion to give some silver, it will probably be enough.

"Your Highness, Weichen has a mention, I don't know if it can be done?" Doctor Ji followed silently for a while, and finally spoke.

"Mr. Ji, please speak." Shang Qirui now has more and more respect for Doctor Ji, but he didn't expect to miss such a big talent in the past. Not only is he a good doctor, but he also has unique insights into many things.

"Judging from the prefect of Song and Wu Tong's judgment, His Royal Highness is afraid that he can't rely on them." Doctor Ji Jun pondered the words, "Now that the flood season is approaching, I am afraid that it will be too late for those poor people to build the embankment." ”

Shang Qirui frowned, this is indeed too late, Doctor Ji is just guessing, but he is sure.

"Then Mr. Ji has a way?" Shang Qirui knew that since Doctor Ji had proposed it, there must be a way to solve it, and he was a little happy, but he didn't expect that this time the matter would be so smooth.

"There's a way, I don't know if it's going to work."

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"There should be many prisoners in the yamen's prison." Thinking about Mu Qingge's words, Doctor Ji gritted his teeth and said, "Most of these prisoners are not serious crimes, they are not great traitors......

Before Doctor Ji finished speaking, Shang Qirui understood. You can let the criminals build the dikes, and when the time comes, the credit will be overcome. Naturally, these people don't need to be paid to build the dams.

"Mr. Ji, what a clever plan." Shang Qirui praised that Doctor Ji is not young, and his brain is still flexible. (To be continued.) )
