Chapter 24: Killing by Doctors
The secret meeting was also announced to be over on the third watch, and everyone had their own thoughts, but they were all tired.
Xiao Gu took two steps and shouted to Lao Jiu under the corridor, "Brother Jiu, please stay." ”
Lao Jiu is a thin young man, with a plaster on his forehead, looking sick and haggard, and his slightly flustered face still brings out elegance and beauty, "Twelfth sister, is there something wrong?" ”
Xiao Gu and Lao Jiu were not very familiar with each other, but at this time, he said directly: "There is a mundane thing that disturbs him. ”
Her black pupils were bottomless, but she asked with a light smile: "I heard that the Shen family of Jining Houfu found you?" ”
There was no clue about the sentence, but Lao Jiu Nie Jing understood, "It was the political envoy Xiao Mingxia of Shandong who invited me to the next post, and they are in-laws with the Shen family." ”
"Xiao Mingxia, Xiao Family ......"
Xiao Gu groaned slightly, and then remembered a cold figure of Shu Lang Xuanju, "Does Xiao Mingxia have a son who serves in the Five Cities Terracotta Division?" ”
"That's the second son Xiao Yue, who was admitted to the martial arts champion last year, Zhu Di came to the examination room in person, and praised his military strategy, bow and horse, and martial arts, and even rewarded him with his own sword back then."
Lao Jiu said in detail, seeing Xiao Gu's eyes flashing, he was silent, and couldn't help but worry a little, "What's the matter, could it be that the Xiao family is also involved in something?" ”
He copied the family when he was young, thanks to Xiao Mingxia who came forward to protect him, although he could only change his name and surname to be an unknown pharmacist, but he finally escaped the catastrophe, so he was quite grateful to the Xiao family, and when he heard Twelve Niang ask this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"Brother Jiu, don't worry, there is nothing wrong with the Xiao family-they invited you to the Shen Mansion for a consultation, how is the situation of the two young masters?"
"That eldest son, Guangren, has a blood accumulation in his brain, and he is afraid that he will be in some trouble, but after my acupuncture, he will be able to recover day by day. As for the little boy Guangyu, as long as he takes a few more tranquilizers. ”
Speaking of Danqing Qihuang's technique, Nie Jing, who was physically weak, had a sparkling eye, unconsciously showing infinite confidence.
Xiao Gu looked at him and smiled, but his smile was a little bitter - Nie Jing was outstanding in medical skills, but because he was a criminal minister, he could only nest in the pharmacy of the Tai Hospital, which was a pity.
But after thinking about it: if there was no catastrophe, Nie Jing was only afraid that under the urging of his father, "everything is inferior, only reading is high", if he dares to mention studying medicine, the bunch of elders who keep him will break his legs.
"Twelfth sister?"
Seeing her delicate expression, Nie Jing asked in a loud voice.
"It's nothing, Brother Jiu, when you go to the Shen Mansion for treatment, please be sure to show your true skills to save people, the second master of his family, Shen Yuan, is quite trusted in front of Zhu Di, if you get his blue eyes, you will have a bright future."
Her smile deepened, she looked into Nie Jing's eyes, and said without hesitation: "Big brother has worked hard for your identity, and you must be flawless-all this is for the sake of a certain day in the future." ”
This sentence was meaningful, but it made Nie Jing break out in a cold sweat - they, what did they want to do, did they want to kill ......?
Xiao Gu was very calm, Ying Ying saluted and said, "Then please Ninth Brother......", and then turned to leave, leaving only Nie Jing looking at her back in a daze.
****
The atmosphere in the Shen Mansion was originally tense, and the servants were silent, and they were to blame at every turn, but they didn't expect that the clouds had been open and the moon was bright in the past few days: the young master of the Xiao family invited a miracle doctor, and under several acupuncture and moxibustion, he actually made the young master Guangren miraculously wake up!
At this time, the family was suddenly happy and relaxed, and the servants were always discussing the deeds of the miracle doctor when they were free.
I heard that this is the second master's brother-in-law Shandong political envoy Xiao Da's second son invited to come, these days the second room people are in good spirits on happy occasions, Mrs. Wang is often rewarded with five taels of silver.
I heard that this miracle doctor, who was only in his early twenties, was able to rejuvenate his hands, which surprised several imperial doctors who came to the consultation.
I also heard that the second master wants to recommend this talented person to the emperor - such a miracle doctor is succumbed to a small pharmacy, which is really a buried talent.
"What do you know, there is a reason for this - this divine doctor has no father or mother, he has studied medicine with his master since he was a child, and he never thought that someone in his clan was a disciple of Fang Xiaoru, and this time he was also involved. What a man sits at home, and woe comes down from heaven! ”
Yu Xia'er had a delicate voice, and was talking about gossip in the open space outside the window, and her voice came into the firewood, Xiao Gu was still silently chopping firewood, but Chu Lan snorted coldly and angrily, "She ran out of the city again to be lazy." ”
The voice outside was still coming in crisply, and someone asked: "That's also a slave of sin, how can this kind of person be recommended to the saint, and the second master is not afraid of anger?" ”
I only heard Yu Xia'er laugh coquettishly, half ridiculed and half coquettish: "The second master is such a smart person, how can you guess his mind with your little insight - I see, this Nie Divine Doctor was only implicated by a distant relative, and it is not good that he has not even seen this clansman, let alone a rebel with the surname Fang, in this case, Banzai should not be too careful." ”
Xiao Gu listened silently, and the corners of her lips hooked a slight arc - this Yuxia'er is still a little smart, and what she said is indeed reasonable. Although Zhu Di hated Jianwen's old ministers, after many years, he would never be angry with a little doctor who didn't know who Fang Xiaoru was. The identity that the eldest brother forged for Nie Jing is really wonderful!
Not to mention...... Zhu Di is also fifty years old, although he is skilled in arching and horses, he can still fight in person, but after all, he has entered the age of aging and sickness, if there is really a miracle doctor who can pass his tests, he must be reused by his side.
Jin Lan will play this chess piece, although it is slow, but it is straight into the middle yuan......
She was thinking about it, only listening to Yu Xia'er's voice lowered, it seemed a little mysterious, "Do you know the way, the second young master Guangsheng never came back after he left home, and the second master was furious when he talked about him!" ”
Some people around sneered: "Where does he dare to come back?" The two sisters-in-law in the second room were almost killed by him, he is so black-hearted and hot-handed, the second master will never spare him, in my opinion, he is still clever and escapes quickly, if he doesn't leave, I'm afraid that he will have his share in the ancestral hall and sinking pool! ”
Seeing that they were muttering endlessly, Chu Lan couldn't help but feel angry from her heart, leaned out of the window, and shouted: "Yuxia'er, today's charcoal hasn't been sent to the big kitchen yet!" ”
"Sister Lan, why are you in such a hurry, you just stare at people at every turn and scold people, it really scares me to death......"
Yu Xia'er smiled lazily, refusing to move the slightest step, but she covered her chest delicately and patted it, as if she was really scared out of heart by Chu Lan.
"Chulan, you haven't finished your own work, why are you bullying Sister Xia, looking at her as a newcomer, it's easy to bully, isn't it?"
Someone immediately stood up for Yuxia'er.
"Yes, yes, my clumsy tongue is not likable, so I can't see our sisters talking? If you want to reprimand us for being lazy, you have to wait for you to mix with an aunt! ”
"Hehe, her appearance is far behind, not to mention the young masters, even the master may not be able to look down on her."
A group of big and small maids chirped, but Chu Lan was so angry that her face turned pale, and she was about to stomp out of her feet to scold, but Xiao Gu pulled her sleeves.
"Sister Lan's appearance is also delicate, even if she can't mix with her aunt's position, she will definitely have that rich place in the future...... Perhaps, we will soon be able to drink your wine. ”
Yuxia glanced at the figure in the window, raised her voice as if she was smiling, and deliberately said it to her, as if she meant something, and she was very proud.
Chu Lan didn't hear anything, but Xiao Gu felt it keenly, and the axe in her hand was stunned, and she suddenly remembered that she heard a rumor yesterday-
Is it ......?
Looking up at Chu Lan, who was still ignorant, she sighed silently, put down the axe and wiped her sweat, and said, "I'll go and relieve myself." ”
After she left the charcoal house, she did not go to the clean room, but walked towards the front six large kitchens.
She went to find Qin's mother. Qin's mother makes a good snack, and people often ask her to help, but she has a quirk - no one can watch when making dim sum, everyone thinks that she is afraid of people stealing the teacher, so she will not get close to touch her moldy head.
Calculating the time, Qin's mother should also finish it, Xiao Gu walked outside the snack room, heard the silence inside, and found that the door was locked when he touched his hand.
Regarding Chu Lan, I have to ask her clearly......
Xiao Gu thought so, came to the window, pierced a layer of paper with his fingers, and gently cut it along the lines of the cloth with the copper hairpin on his head, and looked in with wide eyes-
I saw that the dim sum room was dim, only the little simmer on the small stove was faintly burning, and a figure in a blue silk jacket stood in front of the stove, secretly and carefully sprinkling a powder into the steaming hoop full of snacks!
It was Mama Qin herself!
