Chapter 59: Why Did He Return to the Imperial City?
However, after hearing this, the patient still couldn't let go of his thoughts, and later he didn't eat or drink, and he wouldn't take medicine.
Not long after, the patient passed away.
The doctor wrote a passage in the book, expressing his heartache and regret for the patient's death.
When the patient was alive, the doctor tactfully persuaded her, but failed to persuade her. The healer wrote a passage in the book to the effect that as a healer, you should not only heal the patient, but also heal the heart.
If the patient had listened to the doctor's advice, had a better mentality, thought about the good in everything, and did not be pessimistic, he might not have come to that point.
After reading that book, Qin Li always thought that the patient mentioned in the book who couldn't let go of his worries was likely to be Zhao Sheng's biological mother.
She heard her mother say that it was related to Zhao Sheng's biological mother, and she could imagine how depressed that person was after marrying into the palace.
There are still many beauties around the emperor, and it is impossible to love Zhao Sheng's mother alone.
After Zhao Sheng left Jiayu Mansion, Qin Li was at home almost every day, either reading in the bedroom, or going to the abandoned firewood house to see the wild pheasants, and by the way, he personally fed them some food.
Such days, not many days, came to the end of October.
In the early morning of October 23, Qin Li, as usual, ate and went to the courtyard for a stroll, and then returned to the bedroom to draw medicinal herbs.
While painting, Qin Li heard a few knocks on the door, so he said to Qinghe, "Go and open the door." ”
When Qinghe opened the door, Qin Li took a look, and saw that it was Guo Shi standing at the door, without anyone by his side. Mo Zhu, who was standing at the door before, is not there at this time.
Qin Li greeted with a smile and said, "Mother, come in and sit down for a while." ”
Guo squinted and smiled, "Okay, okay." ”
After walking into the bedroom, Guo handed a letter to Qin Li and looked at her, his eyes full of joy.
"Li'er, the third prince has replied to your Uncle Shi, saying that they have found out who is the person who assassinated the female doctor. It's just that the man is not in the imperial city now, and he has already escaped. Before the Chinese New Year, the man must be captured and returned to the imperial city to be beheaded. And say that you have provided them with important clues, and you will be rewarded. ”
"Great." As soon as Qin Li heard the news, he also praised Zhao Sheng in his heart. They can find out who the real murderer is in a short period of time, and they are quite efficient.
But she knew in her heart that the letter her mother gave her should have been written by Uncle Shi to her father. It may have been mentioned in the letter that something was to be rewarded for her, so her mother brought the letter and showed it to her.
Qin Li returned the letter to Guo and said:
"This letter should have been written by Uncle Shi to his father, and the child should not read it. By the way, the children don't want any reward, as long as they can punish the murderer behind them and avenge the dead female doctor. ”
"I hope they can catch the murderer sooner and behead the man." Qin Li said.
"Yes. Wei Niang believes in the saying, 'Evil is rewarded'. They deserve to be punished for their wickedness. Guo Shi saw that there was no one else in the house, and expressed his opinion:
"I heard your father say that the people who assassinated the female doctor may have been because they did something and were known by the female doctor, and they were worried that the female doctor would speak out, so they killed the female doctor."
"Quite possibly." Qin Li also thinks so. Otherwise, there is no need for people to get along with a female doctor in the palace, not to mention, a female doctor who has prepared pills for the Queen Mother.
I don't know what the female doctor came to Jiayu Mansion last time, what she came for, and who people she has seen since she came here?
It stands to reason that the third prince and the others brought the imperial doctor over to heal the elder of the Murong family. You don't have to ask a female doctor to heal you.
Another point, she didn't know where they got the poison from the pill that Uncle Shi had shown her?
Guo Shi saw that Qin Li was stunned, and knew that Li'er was thinking about something, so he told Li'er what she knew.
"Your father told me that not long ago, that female doctor was entrusted by Prince An to come to our Jiayu Mansion to treat Prince An's confidante. This matter was only learned by your Uncle Shi after sending someone to follow Fu Yu several times. ”
Qin Li nodded slightly.
What Guo said was not beyond her expectations. Because not long ago, she heard Bai Yunyao say something related to the people of the Chu family.
The silver taels that Mrs. Chu compensated her for, as well as the silver taels that treated Chu Xinyan's injuries, were all asked by Mrs. Chu to ask Chu Xinyan's biological mother, who was still young.
Shang Xiaoxiao watched her daughter be beaten and injured, and she couldn't go to take care of her, and she had to tolerate Mrs. Chu asking her for medical expenses.
In this matter, no one will feel good.
Although Shang Xiaoxiao is only a concubine, her daughter Chu Xinyan is a descendant of Chu Zhifu. How could Mrs. Chu calculate so clearly, take a little silver taels to Chu Xinyan for treatment, and refuse?
Mrs. Chu didn't want to see Shang Xiaoxiao, nor did she want to see her daughter. Even when her daughter needed to be taken care of, she was not allowed to take care of her.
Because of this, Shang Xiaoxiao held back his sulk. You can't find Prefect Chu to be angry, and you can't go to argue with Mrs. Chu.
Shang Xiaoxiao fell ill.
in the bedroom.
Guo Shi told Qin Li: "As soon as Prince An heard about it, Shang Xiaoxiao was sick with anger because of her daughter's matter, and she vomited blood. It's very distressing. He immediately found the best female doctor in the world, and took the female doctor to Jiangnan by boat overnight to treat Shang Xiaoxiao. ”
Qin Li smiled mockingly, "A person who has a princess still cares so much about other women, has he ever considered Princess An's feelings?" ”
A dignified prince turned out to be a woman who had married someone else, still young, so attentive. So how much energy does he have to deal with official business?
Prince An was so relieved of Shang Xiaoxiao, even if he personally told the matchmaker and married her to the Chu Governor's Mansion. When she was sick, he would still rush all the way to Jiangnan, just to visit her.
Presumably that Chu Governor is not stupid, he should have known for a long time what kind of deep affection Prince An has for Shang Xiaoxiao. It was precisely because of this that he married Shang Xiaoxiao and went home.
This time, Prince An's visit to Jiayu Mansion, presumably all the people of the Chu family should know. It's just that Bai Yunyao has been out several times, and she hasn't heard of it. It can be seen that the people of the Chu family are still strictly guarding this secret.
Be cautious, it is beneficial to both the prefect of Chu and the prefect of Chu.
Everyone knows that if the prefect of Chu wants to have a smooth career, in addition to having a good relationship with his relatives, he also has to rely on the support of Prince An.
This time, Prince An came to Jiayu Mansion, and Mrs. Chu didn't want to see Chu Xinyan's mother and daughter. With Prince An here, I'm afraid I have to make a show.
Qin Li only heard Guo Shi say:
"You, a woman who has not been out of the cabinet, it is better not to talk about these things. I mentioned these things to you, just to let you know what kind of family Fu Yu was born in. ”
"Okay, mother, the child understands." Qin Li's eyes showed a hint of embarrassment. There are some things, even if Guo doesn't say it, when she goes to work in the pharmacy, she can find someone to inquire.
It's just that when I think about it, some of the things that have happened in the recent days feel that something is not quite right.
I don't understand why Zhao Sheng suddenly went back to the imperial city, and how could that Prince An stay for several days after coming to Jiayu Mansion.
