Xu Xuan laughed when he heard this, "It is the wish of every doctor to cure diseases and save people, I am also married now, and if I want to support my family, I can't be an apprentice in Qingyutang,"

Bai Suzhen was quite happy when she heard this, "The official has this ambition, and the concubine will definitely help, but what the official said is extremely true, if the clinic is opened in this Qiantang, I am afraid that it will compete with the master for patients, what does the official plan to do in the future?" “

Xu Xuan shook his head, "Let's stay in Qingyu Hall for a while for the time being, and besides, a few times ago, the teacher told me that he wanted me to see this year's imperial examination, so I still have to review the scriptures, if I open a medicine hall, I am a little busy."

"Do officials want to participate in the imperial examination?" When Bai Suzhen heard this, she frowned, as a monk like her, in fact, what she was most afraid of was getting involved in the officialdom, because these people have power, and an unintentional decision will affect the life, old age, sickness and death of hundreds of people.

If Xu Xuan is famous, it is equivalent to half of the officialdom, and it is not far from being an official, if it really comes to that point, even if Bai Suzhen likes Xu Xuan, she has to consider leaving, she is continuing to stay, whether it is Xu Xuan or herself, it will be a catastrophe.

Xu Xuan heard Bai Suzhen ask, and he explained, "Meritorious fame, in fact, I really want me to say, I don't want to take the test, but in this world, it is good to be able to have meritorious fame and be exempt from tax and silver labor."

Bai Suzhen was relieved when she heard Xu Xuan say this. As long as you are famous and don't become an official, then there will be much less cause and effect.

At this time, Xiaoqing had already finished processing the ingredients, and Bai Suzhen rose up, "Wait a minute, the official, I'll cook, and ask the official to try my craftsmanship, by the way, please invite my sister and brother-in-law to come over one day, so as not to make my sister laugh at the bad food."

Xu Xuan stood up and said, "Since the lady cooks, I also cook often in the hospital, give the lady a hand, presumably better than the Qing'er girl"

Xiaoqing on the side listened to Xu Xuan's words, but her pretty face was flushed, this Xu official was laughing at her as a maid who couldn't cook, it was really unbearable, really when she Xiaoqing couldn't cook-uh, it seems that she really can't cook.

Bai Suzhen smiled slightly, "Official, the sage once said that the gentleman is far away from the kitchen......"

Xu Xuan had already interrupted Bai Suzhen's words: "That's our Da Song scholars, who are lazy and don't want to cook!" Where did the sage say such a thing, the sage's original words were: 'There is no harm (12), it is the art of benevolence, and the ox does not see the sheep.' A gentleman is also to beasts, seeing their life, and not being able to bear to see their death; Hearing its voice, I can't bear to eat its flesh. It's a gentleman who is far away from cooking'. The meaning of the context is that King Qi Xuan saw the people below and led a cow to the bell, but King Qi Xuan saw the cow and trembled, so he took pity on the people below and let it go, but the bell still had to be sacrificed, so King Qi Xuan let people replace it with a sheep. The sage advised King Qi Xuan to follow the royal road, saying that the gentleman was unwilling to enter the kitchen because he couldn't bear to see life and death, where did he say that the gentleman couldn't cook? ”

Bai Suzhen had also listened to Confucianism's lectures, and knew that Xu Xuan's words were correct, so she had to go into the kitchen with Xu Xuan.

Xiaoqing on the side followed behind Xu Xuan angrily, and she wanted to take a good look at how Xu Xuan cooked.

Xu Xuan entered the kitchen, looked at the vegetables washed out randomly, and helplessly glanced at the angry Xiaoqing behind him, opened his mouth, and did not speak after all, in case he didn't say it right, this girl was crazy, and she was the one who suffered after all.

Xu Xuan quickly washed the dishes, then put the dishes on the board, cut the vegetables smoothly, and listened to the sound of the kitchen knife chopping evenly and neatly on the board, Xiaoqing opened his mouth wide, "This stupid goose really knows how to cook."

Bai Suzhen on the side had already started cooking, the kitchen was not big, and there were three people standing at once, which seemed a little crowded.

After Xu Xuan bypassed Xiaoqing n times, he finally couldn't help but say, "Miss Qing'er, why don't you go out and sit down?" ”

Xiaoqing rolled her eyes, "How am I standing here?" I'll have to see if you're lazy here."

Xu Xuan shook his head, "Young girl, you are in the way here, didn't you see that I had to bypass you by cutting vegetables?" ”

Xiaoqing was standing next to Xu Xuan confidently, but when she heard Xu Xuan's words, she turned around and went out angrily, and said angrily as she walked, "Damn, hateful goose!" ”

Seeing this, Bai Suzhen on the side was afraid that Xiaoqing was playing tricks on Xu Xuan, but she hurriedly shouted, "Qing'er, Qing'er"

But Xiaoqing, who was angry at this time, had already walked out of the yard a few steps, and when he found a no-man's land, he stuck out his tongue at the kitchen, "Dumb goose, what are you proud of, look at how my Xiaoqing plays tricks on you!" ”

She waved her hands, only to see a clear light, just when she wanted to do it, only to hear a sound of laughter outside the distant wall, and then a few deliberately suppressed voices, drifting far away with the wind.

Then, I saw a few dark shadows coming in from outside the wall.

Xiao Qing looked at this group of cautious guys, smiled strangely, pretended to be nothing, and sat on the stone bench in the back garden.

"Be careful, there's someone!" The people who were exploring the way in front hurriedly stopped their companions behind them.

The leader came from behind, glanced at Xiaoqing, and hesitated, they belong to the criminal department's investigation and arrest, generally speaking, it is to collect various criminal evidence of suspects. In principle, you can sneak into the other person's home and rummage through the cabinets, but you must not abduct someone and torture them to extract a confession.

But now the top attaches great importance to the loss of treasury silver in Qiantang County, otherwise they would not have been specially dispatched over, and even before leaving, someone quietly gave them a clue, saying that a doctor named Xu Xuan in Nancheng had treasury silver on him, and it was very likely to be spent! This is a very important clue since the Kuyin case occurred.

But the most important thing is that the adult in charge of the Criminal Department personally approached him and vaguely signaled them to handle the case to Xu Xuan......

Right now, there's a good opportunity! If it is done, the brothers will be prosperous and rich, but if they can't do it, I'm afraid that they will have to sit on the cold bench when they go back.

The man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, stretched out his hand and waved his brothers, grabbed the little maid in front of him, and looked at a few subordinates who quietly sneaked past, this person secretly said to this girl in his heart, "I'm sorry, we were also forced, if this matter can't involve Xu Xuan, I'm afraid I won't be able to live well." Therefore, I have to get the 'evidence' of Xu Xuan's theft of the treasury silver from your mouth."

At this time, these subordinates had already sneaked to Xiaoqing's side, and Zhang Tie, who was the best at catching people. He had already locked the woman's joints.

I saw this maid, turned her head violently, one was rotten, pus mixed with maggots, puffed down, and said with a gloomy smile, "What are you doing?" ”
