Of course, Ruan Qingzhi knew what it meant to "keep it in mind and take it as a warning", but she didn't care.

Isn't it just holding a grudge! Although she has a bad memory, she is also good at holding grudges.

The emperor and the empress dowager also knew what the imperial physician Chu meant, but no one said anything, and unanimously decided to maintain the apparent peace and dismissed the imperial physicians, leaving only Ruan Qingzhi to speak.

The Queen Mother was okay, she just cared for a few words in generality, and asked if there was any news of King Li, and then advised Ruan Qingzhi to do everything according to her ability and not to be too nervous.

The emperor didn't have a good face, stared at Ruan Qingzhi for a while, and asked coldly: "You have been going to the Tai Hospital for so many days, do you have any prescriptions?" ”

"Yes!" Ruan Qingzhi smiled brightly, "I originally remembered the medicine I used, but now that I have been thinking about it for a few days, I have roughly remembered the usage and dosage." ”

"Really?!" The emperor's expression immediately softened a lot, "So, the recovery prescription is just around the corner?" ”

Ruan Qingzhi's face stiffened, and he hesitated: "I also want to say that it is just around the corner, but the truth is ...... I barely remembered it, but it's crucial. ”

A dark cloud reappeared on the emperor's face.

The Queen Mother hurriedly asked, "Why can't you remember?" What's missing? ”

Ruan Qingzhi said in embarrassment: "I can't tell you the specifics, it's as if something is covering my memory and deliberately not letting me remember it." I could vaguely perceive that it was a problem of the two herbs, but I don't remember how it was solved at the time. I only remember that Ye Han found me a lot of medical books and ancient books, and I found inspiration to overcome this difficulty...... But then I was so busy that I forgot. ”

You can't remember such a big thing, and of course you can forget what that ancient book is.

The emperor knew that Ruan Qingzhi was mostly playing tricks, but he couldn't be tough with her, so he could only coax her patiently.

After all, the identity of this "destiny" is scary. Moreover, now that the county lord of Qingyang is in the limelight among the people, if he pushes it too hard, he is afraid that the holy name will be damaged.

The emperor thought of this, and he couldn't help but start to miss the days when the "phoenix" Ruan Biyun bowed down to him in the past.

But now that the world has changed, it is in vain to miss it.

It took a lot of effort for the emperor to reluctantly adjust his mood, and pretended to be kind and persuasive: "One person is short and two people are long, you can't always rely on yourself to think about it, and if you can't figure it out, you have to ask the imperial doctors for advice." They are all well-informed, and if nothing else, they always read more books than you. ”

Ruan Qingzhi bowed his head and said that he was respectfully taught, and said, "I have indeed been consulting with Imperial Doctor Du these days, and I have benefited a lot. It's just those ancient books in the Tai Hospital, and they always stop me from reading them, and I don't dare to quarrel with them. ”

"How can it be!" The Queen Mother said angrily, "Chu Shen didn't receive any important errands in the Tai Hospital, he has always relied on the merits of his ancestors to rely on the old and sell the old, and the mourning family is only lazy to ask, who knows that he is now bullying us more and more!" Emperor, this time the Chu family's errand in the Tai Hospital must be completely wiped out, if you call him back every two days, the mourning family will not follow! ”

"Don't worry," the emperor frowned, "such a person who doesn't know how to respect and is guilty of a crime can't be retained anymore." ”

Ruan Qingzhi finally smiled again when he heard this, and asked after him: "Then, can I read the book of the Tai Hospital?" ”

The emperor was about to frown, but the queen mother smiled and said, "Naturally." Isn't it written just for people to read? What's more, what you have to do is a big thing, I don't think anyone dares to stop it! ”

When Ruan Qingzhi got this sentence, he immediately thanked him with a smile on his face, and ran out with a "retirement".

She knew the emperor would be angry, but so what? Anyway, he couldn't completely tear his face at this time, so he had to coax her with a good voice.

She can take this opportunity to use chicken feathers as arrows and show off her power in the Tai Hospital for a while.

When I got out of the palace gate, I realized that Imperial Doctor Du hadn't left yet, and was waiting anxiously for her on the side of the road.

Ruan Qingzhi was a little moved, and waved his hand pretending to be indifferent: "What are you waiting for me to do?" With the Queen Mother here, the emperor can't punish me! ”

"It's not for Your Majesty to punish you," Imperial Physician Du said worriedly, "County Lord, you don't know Imperial Physician Chu's temperament, he is the kind of person who will repay him!" If we offend him today, he won't give up. The minister is just afraid...... He may stumble on you next. ”

Ruan Qingzhi thought for a moment and smiled: "Yes." I know that old thing, little belly chicken intestines. I am afraid that not only will he stumble on me, but even you, who testify for me, will not be remembered by him. ”

Hearing this, Imperial Physician Du immediately blushed, and hurriedly explained: "We actually have nothing. Over the years, he has been worried about the location of the head of the hospital, and he has been unable to get along with me and a few apprentices openly and secretly, but it will not get to the point of life and death; You're different, you're a young girl, and there's no one behind you......"

Ruan Qingzhi couldn't help frowning when he heard this.

Why is there no one behind her? The Luan family is not human? King Li is not human? There is also the Prime Minister's House......

Thinking of Imperial Physician Chu's disdain for the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ruan Qingzhi was faintly worried.

The hospital has never been short of secrets. Imperial Physician Chu didn't take Xiangfu so seriously, could it be because he knew something?

If that's the case, it's really troublesome.

Seeing that Ruan Qingzhi was distracted, Imperial Physician Du hurriedly changed his words and said, "Although it is troublesome, the county lord does not have to worry about it. Chu Shen is no longer working in the Tai Hospital, and after today, you don't have to see him again. ”

"What, see you today?" Ruan Qingzhi frowned.

Imperial Doctor Du said: "After all, I still have diagnosed the pulse of the nobles in the palace, and there are some things that need to be handed over." He had already gone back first, and if the county lord didn't want to see him, he would have to come back a little later. ”

"That's not going to work!" Ruan Qingzhi immediately became anxious, "Your Majesty just promised me that I could look through the classics of the Tai Hospital at will, and now that old villain will go back first, what if he destroys all the important medical case classics and deliberately wants me to not be able to write a prescription?" No, I'm going back to watch him! ”

Hearing this, Imperial Physician Du was also very nervous, obviously also having his own worries. So everyone didn't care about gossip anymore, and hurried back to the hospital.

After going back, several medicine boys said that the grandfather and grandson of Mrs. Chu were in the backyard study building, and they didn't let others follow. Hearing this, Imperial Physician Du's face immediately turned ugly, and he hurriedly brought his apprentices and servants to the library building.

Ruan Qingzhi never refused to lag behind when he saw the excitement, of course, he kept up with him inch by inch.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw a lot of classics piled up on the ground in a mess, Imperial Doctor Chu was holding a box in his arms and smiling very coldly, and when he saw someone coming in, he immediately closed the lid, vigilantly hid it behind him, and asked everyone: "What are you doing?" Did you come to this official Xingshi to ask for the guilt?! ”

Imperial Physician Du looked at him and said angrily: "Chu Shen, you said that you would come back to sort out your things, but this official Nian has been in his colleagues for many years before allowing you to enter the door, but he didn't say that he let you do anything here!" Now that you're not a hospitalist, what are you doing with these books? What's in that box? ”

Imperial Physician Chu said coldly: "The old man has been in charge of the library for many years, so it is inevitable that he will put some personal things here. Today, the old man resigned, why not take his own things away? ”

"Chu Shen!" Imperial Physician Du gritted his teeth, "From beginning to end, no one has ever authorized you to take charge of the library of Tai Hospital!" Over the years, your hand has been stretched long enough, and the whole Tai Hospital has been made into a miasma by you! Now that you have been dismissed and expelled from the hospital, you can't take a single piece of paper here! ”

The master of the courtyard spoke, and a group of colleagues and apprentices behind him echoed. But at the same time, there are also many people who try to speak for Imperial Doctor Chu, obviously in recent years, the phenomenon of gangs and factions within the Tai Hospital is indeed quite serious.

Seeing that the two groups of people were about to fight, Ruan Qingzhi hurriedly ran to the side and hid, so as not to harm the pond fish.

But all the imperial doctors were Sven, and in the end they didn't do anything, they just quarreled a lot. Imperial Physician Chu held the box and said that he wouldn't let go of anything, and many classic medical cases on the ground were trampled under his feet and trampled on them.

Quarrels are never the solution to problems, fights are.

What's more, at this moment, the two sides are evenly matched as a whole, and if it goes on like this, I am afraid that it will not be possible to quarrel until dark.

Ruan Qingzhi waited impatiently, beckoned a little boy, and deliberately said loudly: "You go to the palace for me to ask to see the Queen Mother, just say that the former imperial physician Chu Shen has been rummaging in the library of the Tai Hospital for a long time, and insists on taking away a very important box." Now the county lord is suspicious that the box either contains poison that is enough to destroy the city, or contains the privacy of His Majesty and the ladies in the palace, and wants to ask the Empress Dowager, whether the Imperial Doctor Chu is allowed to take the box out? ”

Xiao Tong agreed with an ignorant face, and sure enough, he raised his feet and was about to leave.

Seeing this, Imperial Physician Chu's face immediately changed, and he shouted, "What kind of nonsense are you talking about!" In this box, it's just some medical cases that the official has painstakingly sorted out over the years! ”

"You say yes, yes?" Ruan Qingzhi snorted coldly, "Even if it is, the things of the Tai Hospital can't be disposed of by you as a civilian, not to mention that the truth of the matter is unknown now!" - Ladies and gentlemen, do you really want to let this Imperial Doctor Chu send away the secrets of the Imperial Hospital and bring death to yourself? ”

The secrets of the Tai Hospital are related to many royal secrets, the private affairs of the emperor and the ladies, and even the lives of the Fengzi and Dragon grandchildren. After Chu Shen left the Tai Hospital, he could stay out of the matter, but the rest of them might not be able to get rid of it.

After Ruan Qingzhi woke up, many people immediately changed their positions, their faces turned pale, and their feet retreated again and again, and they didn't dare to speak for Imperial Doctor Chu anymore.

Imperial Physician Du finally felt stiff, and strode forward, righteous and awe-inspiring: "Chu Shen! Do you think now is the time for you to show off your might? I hope you can see clearly, at this moment, you are not 'resigning', but made a big mistake and was dismissed and expelled from the hospital by His Majesty! If you insist on making such a fuss, this official has no choice but to ask Shangguan to expel you from Shangjing completely! ”

With him taking the lead, those imperial doctors who had been bullied by Chu Shen in the past few days also gained some courage, and they all stepped forward, scolded Chu Shen with nonsense, and ordered him to put down the box and get out of the hospital immediately.

In the past, the imperial doctors who used to be the only ones in the Chu family thought that the Chu family was now defeated, and those who wanted to rebel immediately rebelled, and those who couldn't turn the corner lost their confidence, and suddenly languished a lot.

Imperial Physician Chu originally wanted to rush out by brute force, but found that more and more people outside were gathering, and in the end, all the people in the entire Imperial Hospital came forward to block his way.

Imperial Doctor Chu, who was still with a straight back and full of confidence, was suddenly in a difficult situation at the moment.

His face became more and more ugly, he gritted his teeth and hated for a long time while holding the box, and finally looked up at Ruan Qingzhi and sneered: "Qingyang County Lord is so capable!" Young and vigorous, it is inevitable to be rampant, but this official still advises you, be a man and leave a line, so as not to see it in the future - I don't want to see it! ”

"Don't worry about your old man," Ruan Qingzhi sat on the table and said with a smile, "Don't talk about leaving a line, even if I leave a big road for the people of the world, there is no place for your old man to stay." Mr. Chu, Tai Hospital is no longer a place where you can show off your might. Put things down and get out. ”

"Ha, haha!" Imperial Physician Chu suddenly smiled.

Then, he really turned around and put the box back on the shelf, then patted the official robe on his body, and spread his hands: "So, how? ”

Ruan Qingzhi did not speak.

Imperial Physician Chu took two steps forward and looked at her mockingly: "I miss that your milk is not dry, and the old man will not care about you today." Come back to me on the day you fall from the throne of the county lord and are cornered! ”

With that, he flicked his sleeves fiercely, turned and left.

Ruan Qingzhi suddenly stood up and shouted coldly: "Slow! Stripped off his official robe! ”

It's humiliating to strip your clothes.

But several apprentices in the Tai Hospital did not hesitate, rushed forward with a shout, and ripped off Chu Shen's official robe without saying a word.

Then he saw a lot of paper falling out of his official robe like snowflakes and spreading all over the floor.

The crowd was in an uproar.

This time, without waiting for Ruan Qingzhi's orders, the conscientious imperial doctor stepped forward and searched Chu Shen's body inside and out, including his nephew Chu Shiwen's body.

This search really caused them to find dozens of prescriptions, as well as two extremely precious classics.

At this time, everyone in the Zitai Hospital was frightened, and they no longer cared about what they were doing with each other, so they hurriedly sent someone into the palace to report the matter, and at the same time asked someone to send Imperial Doctor Chu to interrogate, and the chaos was very lively.

These things are not for Ruan Qingzhi to care about.

Seeing that everyone was sending the grandfather and grandson of the Chu family out, Ruan Qingzhi picked up a book that had fallen from Chu Shen's body just now, sat down at the table, and the big lama instructed the medicine boy: "You guys tidy up here, move lightly, don't disturb me." ”

Now everyone knows that the county lord of Qingyang came here with the emperor's permission, and of course no one dares to disobey her orders.

So Ruan Qingzhi took this library building as his own territory, drinking tea, eating snacks, reading books, and looking for prescriptions.

By evening, the medicine boy had finished putting away the messy manuscripts on the floor. Imperial Physician Du also specially sent someone to tell the palace that the matter of Imperial Physician Chu had been reported to the palace, and the emperor was furious and specially sent an edict to order him to go home to deal with his crimes.

Ruan Qingzhi frowned when he heard the verdict, feeling a little surprised.

She didn't understand the affairs of the Tai Hospital, but the arrogance of this Chu Taiyi was really beyond her imagination.

In such a situation, the emperor did not directly ask for the guilt, but said something to "go home and wait for the guilt", which is simply a clear cover-up.

At this moment, Ruan Qingzhi couldn't help but be a little worried, secretly suspecting that he might have provoked someone he couldn't afford to provoke.

She noticed that when many people mentioned Imperial Doctor Chu, they were not talking about "Chu Shen" but "Chu family". Could it be that the Chu family of the hospital is not a big family?

Ruan Qingzhi still couldn't figure out this question at the moment, and the sky was gradually darkening.

The two medicine boys lit the lights in the building and retreated, but Ruan Qingzhi was reluctant to leave. After a moment, she put down the book she had finished reading and went back to the shelves to look through the medicine cases that had just been put back together.

She was a little suspicious, feeling that what Imperial Doctor Chu had done before was just a cover.

The insistence on taking the box turned out to be a cover for the prescriptions hidden on the body, so is it possible that the prescriptions hidden on the body were also to cover up something else?

Ruan Qingzhi checked the box, which contained an ancient book and two flavors of precious medicinal materials, which were valuable, but they were not a big deal;

Those prescriptions are the same, they are all good prescriptions, and they are indeed a great wealth for a doctor, but Ruan Qingzhi does not think that they are worth stealing from a former imperial doctor who has fought for a lifetime.

No matter how you think about it, it seems a little too deliberate.

Therefore, Ruan Qingzhi patiently looked through those prescriptions carefully, but never saw the way.

She didn't give up, and followed the direction of the children to sort out the medicine cases, checking the past one by one, carefully paying attention to the patterns and colors on the shelves, trying to find out some secrets from them.

She's heard and seen the secret grid and organs, and she thinks she can still understand a thing or two.

Ruan Qingzhi didn't know why he trusted his instincts and did such a ridiculous thing. But in the end, it turned out that her instincts were quite accurate.

She really found it.

In an inconspicuous corner behind the bookshelf, there was a depression that blended with the pattern, which happened to be very consistent with the box that Chu Shen was trying to take away.

Ruan Qingzhi didn't hesitate for a moment, immediately turned around and turned back to the outside to get the box, put it all in the depression, and then turned it gently like a key.

This mechanism is not at all coincidental. It's just that the size of the box and the key is reversed.

Perhaps the people who built this mechanism thought that no one would have thought that such a bulky box could be a key, and that the space that the key was going to open -

Ruan Qingzhi didn't see it clearly.

A puff of smoke rushed straight to the door, instantly obscuring Ruan Qingzhi's vision and filling the entire room at an incredible speed before Ruan Qingzhi could react.

The candles went out, and the room was plunged into absolute darkness, the kind that couldn't see the five fingers.

And that's not even the worst of it. The bigger problem is that Ruan Qingzhi clearly knows that this smoke is highly poisonous.

It may not be fatal, but it can seal all of a person's senses, make people unable to speak or move, and become poisonous to the living dead like clay sculptures and wood sculptures.

She wasn't even sure if the darkness she was seeing at the moment was because the candles had gone out, or if her eyes were broken.

Ruan Qingzhi could feel her heart beating and blood flowing, but even the sound of her heartbeat could no longer reach her ears.

The limbs gradually stiffened.

Ruan Qingzhi was not afraid. She struggled to move her fingers, and before she lost consciousness completely, she grabbed the purse she was strapped around her waist and squeezed it down hard.

The strange fragrance emanated from the purse, and little by little, very slowly, it broke through the barrier of smoke.

Ruan Qingzhi felt that his hand could move. Then I heard some noise in my ears, and the dark in my eyes faded into an annoying gray.

The poison is cured.

Ruan Qingzhi smiled and grabbed the purse in his hand again.

It was filled with a tiny wax pill, which had been pinched by her.

That is, of course, the antidote pill, the real fairy formula. She scavenged many precious medicinal materials from the Ruan family, Jin Liyuan and Tai Hospital, and only carried them with her for two days, but she didn't expect them to really come in handy.

Ruan Qingzhi was secretly annoyed in his heart.

Originally, she didn't make this thing to waste it for herself.

That Chu Shen, his heart can be punished!

Ruan Qingzhi would not reflect on whether this disaster was brought on by herself. Anyway, in her opinion, she is always right.

The smoke cleared, but the light was still dim. Ruan Qingzhi was finally convinced that the candle had indeed been extinguished.

Outside the door, Imperial Physician Du's voice came from behind, full of worry: "Lord Qingyang? What's going on inside? Why did the lights go out? ”

"It's okay," Ruan Qingzhi said, "the wind is too strong, and it's blown out." I'm already on point, you don't have to come in. ”

As she spoke, she walked quickly to the table and found the flint, and sure enough, she re-lit the lamp.

Outside, Imperial Doctor Du and the medicine boy saw the lights come back on, and sure enough, they didn't ask any more questions, and the footsteps gradually faded away.

Ruan Qingzhi dragged her legs, which were still a little stiff, and slowly moved back to the original bookshelf, but was surprised to find that the wooden box was actually placed upright on the bookshelf, and the place where she had opened the bookshelf was still flat and neat, and there was no trace of anyone touching it at all.

Of course, this is not a strange thing, and it is not someone hiding in the shadows to play a prank.

It's that this mechanism is designed for killing, and it can be automatically restored after killing people.

is so clever that it can be regarded as worthy of Imperial Doctor Chu's previous pretentiousness.

Ruan Qingzhi was even more interested, and secretly scolded himself for being reckless, but he held the box again with both hands.

Recklessness kills people, but isn't she dead yet!

The box was placed into the groove again, and Ruan Qingzhi repeated the previous action again, twisting it slightly.

This time, only a few wisps of smoke came out, and then they were gone, apparently left over from the past.

Ruan Qingzhi ignored it, and reached straight in, groping in the hidden compartment.

The dark compartment is very small, only three inches long and a finger thick, and more than two inches deep.

So Ruan Qingzhi immediately pulled out a piece of paper from it, as well as a blackened porcelain vase, from which it was obvious that the smoke from before was emitted.

Ruan Qingzhi ignored the porcelain vase. She pinched the piece of paper with both hands, and after repeatedly making sure that there were no mechanisms inside or outside, it took a lot of effort to make up her mind and slowly unfold it.
