Chapter 331: Take the initiative to show goodwill
Su Chen and Zhou Jiamin left Chengxin Hall, and Feng Jian, the chief eunuch, sent the two out of the palace gate, and was about to turn back, but Su Chen suddenly shouted: "Gonggong Feng, please stay." ”
Feng Jian was a little puzzled, looked at Su Chen in amazement, and asked with a smile, "Does Su Gongzi have anything else?" ”
Su Chen said seriously: "I saw Gonggong Feng yesterday with some cough, his face was yellow, he walked floating, and he had a slight emphysema, if he is not treated in time, it will turn into pneumonia or asthma in the future, which is very tricky." I have a recipe here, Father-in-law Feng can send someone to grab the medicine, after decoction, take it twice a day, and within half a month, you can completely recover. ”
After Feng Jian listened, he was stunned for a moment, and then his face showed joy, he did have a cough recently, and he didn't get better after taking a little decoction, when he was serving the official family in the palace, he tried not to cough, or when he wanted to cough, he went out to cough for an excuse, not wanting to affect the official family's approval because of small symptoms, or be replaced by others.
At this time, after hearing Su Chen tell him the cause of the illness, he even prepared a prescription for him in advance, and he immediately felt grateful.
After all, Su Chen's medical skills, Feng Jian admired, at a young age, he was like a miracle doctor, and even the diseases of the second prince and the queen needed him to treat, since he said that the prescription was useful, it must be useful, so as not to delay the disease to the back.
"Oh, Su Gongzi has a heart, thank you so much." Feng Jian's smile became much more comfortable, and he was still very grateful for Su Chen's overtures and taking the initiative to consider the condition of this half-disabled person.
Su Chen didn't say anything else, handed over a folded formula, and then turned to leave.
Although he intended to befriend the chief eunuch and the cronies around the official's family, he didn't want to be too flattering and obvious, there was a favor, as long as the other party could appreciate this favor and not report bad feelings to him in the future, this would be fine.
The two left the inner garden area where Chengxin Hall was located, Su Chen and Zhou Jiamin also said goodbye, and his heart was in danger, so he didn't stay in the palace for long, and hurriedly left the palace, planning to discuss countermeasures with Han Xizai.
Zhou Jiamin also knew that Su Chen was worried, so although she was reluctant to let him leave in such a hurry when she first met, it was not good to keep more, watching Su Chen's back go away, she pouted and returned to Yaoguang Palace.
"I don't know if Sister Qinqing, can she turn the corner this time, if she really killed the little son of the Cha family by mistake, then there will be lawsuits and become a sinner, and her marriage with Su Chen is ......"
Zhou Jiamin thought of this possibility, and a hesitant look appeared on his face, and he immediately shook his head and denied his thoughts: Jiamin, what are you thinking nonsense, Qin Jing is very important to Brother Su, if something happens to her, Brother Su must be sad, if Brother Su is sad, I will also be sad, so I can't have this jealous thought!
This contradictory mood, after the battle between heaven and man, finally the good side prevailed, and did not think about falling into the well, nor did he gloat over this matter.
At the beginning of human nature, it is difficult to determine good and evil, and the key depends on the genetic inheritance in a person's body, the growth environment, the education, and the size of the temptation.
When Zhou Jiamin returned to the Yaoguang Palace, Emperor E had already woken up, sitting on the edge of the bed, holding the drama of the Peony Pavilion in his hand, and his spirit was a little better than two days ago.
"Sister, you're awake." Zhou Jiamin stepped forward and greeted Queen Zhou.
Emperor Zhou E nodded slightly, and said: "I was about to wake up, in the haze, I heard the voice of you and Su Chen talking, I came and left, in a hurry, what is the matter?" ”
"This ......" Zhou Jiamin hesitated for a moment, but still said to her sister truthfully: "Su Chen and I came to find the emperor's brother-in-law, because Miss Peng is in trouble." ”
"What's wrong with her?" The queen was a little puzzled.
Zhou Jiamin explained: "Yesterday morning, when I left the palace and returned to Peng's mansion, on the street, Miss Peng saw the evil young man of the Cha family, conniving at the evil slaves of the family, and bullying several scholars in Taixue. Arrested Miss Peng and put her in prison in the Criminal Department. ”
When Empress Zhou heard this, she was stunned, obviously not expecting this to happen.
"Peng Jingqing, I accidentally killed the son of the Cha family, I'm afraid this matter is not easy to get right." Empress Zhou still has some political acumen and wisdom, she has been in the past two years, in order to assist her husband Li Yu in governing state affairs and stabilizing the forces of all parties, Emperor Zhou E often discusses some views on governing the country with Li Yu, and also understands the situation in the court, so after hearing the ins and outs of this matter, she has a hunch that this matter is not good and cannot be suppressed.
After all, the Cha family was a few years ago, but it was a very wealthy and powerful family, and it was very relied on by Yuanzong Li Jing, and Cha Wenhui had many allies and protégés in the imperial court.
Zhou Jiamin still admired her sister's eyesight, nodded and said: "Yes, yes, now things are very troublesome, the Cha family has written an excerpt to sue the royal family, and I heard that many officials and imperial histories outside have also written books, not only asking for the punishment of Miss Peng, but even Peng's father's position as the governor has also been impeached." ”
Empress Zhou shook her head and sighed: "Alas, how can that be good!" In this matter, if Miss Peng does not take advantage of the situation and kills someone by mistake, even if Su Chen enters the palace to intercede, it is very difficult to let the official family be extrajudicial and pardon Peng Jingqing's crimes, even if Su Chen is now doing his best to save the palace, but how many pairs of eyes in the court are staring at this matter, and they are watching how the officials deal with it, if it is improper, the laws of the Tang Kingdom will be affected, the court is turbulent, and she can't open this opening, at most, she will work on her "over-teaching" and "manslaughter", so as to alleviate Peng Jingqing's murderous intentions, and there is no need to resist her fate. But he will also have to be imprisoned for more than ten or twenty years, and even Peng Zeliang will be affected and lose his official position. ”
"It's so serious!" After listening to her sister's explanation, Zhou Jiamin had a deeper understanding of this matter, and only then did she understand why Su Chen was so anxious.
Empress Zhou nodded solemnly: "It is reasonable to be reasonable, this palace should also help Su Chen, but this matter is a fait accompli, and I am also powerless." ”
Zhou Jiamin saw that his sister showed embarrassment and worry, and hurriedly said: "Sister, you don't have to worry, Su Chen said that Miss Peng is innocent, he just met in Chengxin Hall, not to ask the official family to pardon Peng Jingqing, but to beg him to participate in the trial of the case, to find out the real cause of Cha Yuanxian's death, he suspects that there is something strange in this matter, it is very likely that Cha Yuanxian's death has nothing to do with Peng Jingqing!" ”
"There is such a thing!" Empress Zhou was stunned for a moment, and after pondering, she said: "Su Chen has learned people, has excellent medical skills, and has many means, since he thinks that Peng Jingqing is wronged, and there is something strange about this matter, then it may be true, presumably the official family also agreed to his request." ”
Zhou Jiamin looked adoring, and said innocently: "Sister is so powerful, I guessed it right at once, the official family did agree, and gave Su Chen a holy decree and a letter talisman, I can participate in the investigation of the case, I am the same as you, I also believe Su Chen's words, since he suspects it, there must be something in it." ”
"Let's wait and see, this time, how Su Chen solves the case and saves his fallen fiancée." Queen Zhou's willow eyebrows moved lightly, and she was also concerned about this matter, and even faintly looked forward to it.
