Chapter 68: Hiding Cats
Because the only doctor who sat in the clinic was not there, Jishitang had been closed for three days, and on the fourth day, it suddenly reopened, and the doctor who sat in the clinic also changed from a kind female doctor to a Taoist who always had a wooden face. However, this long's method is even more miraculous, but the cost of its diagnosis is so expensive that ordinary people dare not go to Jishitang to check the disease.
When the Queen Mother came, Jishitang was a scene of a crowd, a few guys stayed behind the counter, and Zhuqing sat at the log table where the consultation would be held, expressionless and motionless.
"The Queen Mother has arrivedβ"
The pomp of the Queen Mother on this trip is not small, there are enough ten grandmothers following behind, more than 20 maids outside, five hundred royal forest soldiers, the sedan chair has just fallen at the door of Jishitang, it has attracted a lot of onlookers of the people, the Queen Mother has just been supported by Chu Nian to get off the sedan chair, and suddenly the surrounding people fell down, the scene is very spectacular.
The people in Jishitang also came out one after another, greeting the queen mother who was full of swagger, the queen mother was very satisfied with everyone's reaction, and nodded slowly after a while, "Flat, you don't need to care about the mourning family, the mourning family is just here today to praise the benefactor who saved Nian'er." β
The figure of the Queen Mother entered the Jishi Hall, and the civilians present were able to calm down, followed by bursts of discussion.
"Why did the Queen Mother come to Jishitang?"
"Haven't you heard, a few days ago, the Wushuang County Lord fell off the cliff because of the madness of the horse, and almost couldn't come back, and then a Taoist was kind enough to save the life of the Wushuang County Lord, and the Queen Mother learned about it, and threatened to reward the life-saving benefactor of the Wushuang County Lord!"
"The Queen Mother is so blessed? He also attaches so much importance to the unequaled county lord! β
"The Wushuang County Lord captured the heart of the Queen Mother so quickly, it's really amazing!"
β¦β¦
The Queen Mother entered the Jishitang, and the door was sealed by the people she brought, and the rumors outside the door naturally couldn't come in, and when she saw a few young men in the Jishitang standing in place trembling, the Queen Mother smiled and said: "Zhuqing Daoist, why don't we go inside and talk in detail?" β
Zhu Qing's eyes swept over Chu Nian, and seeing that Chu Nian's face was not abnormal, he said with a sad face: "Now there are too many patients in Jishitang, and the supply of poor pills can't keep up, most of them are still waiting in the back hall, and now there is no place in the back hall." β
"Oh?" The Queen Mother was originally aiming at Zhu Qing's alchemy skills, and her natural posture was lower, seeing Zhu Qing's troubled appearance, she turned her eyes to Chu Nian and said: "Nian'er, the head of Zhuqing Dao was originally a distinguished guest, why is it the head of Zhuqing Dao for consultation?" β
Without waiting for Chu Nian to speak, Zhu Qing took the lead, looked at the Queen Mother with a cold face and said: "The only doctor in Jishitang is not here, and the poor Dao saw that the patients who came to Jishitang for diagnosis returned one by one in vain, and he couldn't bear it, and he just happened to have some pills left to treat Chu Sanniang's wounds, so he let the patients in, but there were more and more patients......
At the end, Zhu Qing shook his head helplessly, "Now that the poor road can't save people, the master originally sent me down the mountain to travel, but now I'm afraid that the art of eliminating ghosts and catching demons has not been practiced, but the Danshu has been practiced more." β
The Queen Mother frowned and turned her eyes to look at Chu Nian, "The original healer is gone, why don't you invite one more?" β
Chu Nian's face seemed to be tightened, "This Jishitang was originally opened because of the original healer, and now the courtiers really can't find other healers......
"No wonder the three ladies, this is the poor road self-invited, the queen mother is famous all over the world, now although it is for his own body to invite the doctor of Jishitang into the palace, but let the common people no one heal, if the people know the reason, only afraid of the mouth, it is difficult to soothe people's hearts, the poor road is afraid that the three ladies will not find a new doctor and miss the time, so that the people misunderstand the queen mother, and have no choice but to go out in person."
Zhu Qing's face was serious, and his face was not red or his heart was beating when he told lies, so the Queen Mother had to believe it, but at this time, the Queen Mother also understood what Zhu Qing meant, in the end, it was because Auntie was arrested in the palace, and he had no choice but to start the consultation.
I saw that the Queen Mother frowned, "But if the divine doctor of Jishitang is released, the old illness of the mourning family will ......."
Chu Nian on the side seemed to have just come back to his senses, and said in the ear of the Queen Mother, "It's better to ask the Zhuqing Daoist to refine the elixir for the Empress Dowager, if it is the Zhuqing Daoist Chief's elixir, it may be more effective than ordinary medical skills." β
Hearing this, the Queen Mother's cloudy old eyes flashed a little, and she turned her eyes to look at Zhuqing with a smile, "This is a good idea, but I don't know if Daoist Zhuqing is willing?" β
Zhu Qing's face suddenly turned embarrassed, "This ......"
Seeing Zhu Qing's hesitant appearance, the Queen Mother suddenly felt that there was a door, so she hurriedly spoke: "If you enter the palace to help the mourning family go to the root of the disease, and the mourning family worships you as the national teacher, you don't respect the court's courtesy, and one person is above ten thousand people." β
Zhu Qing shook his head, "How can you ...... when you go down the mountain to cultivate?"
Chu Nian stood beside the Queen Mother, sensing the disappointed look of the Queen Mother, and knew that if Zhu Qing hesitated any longer, today's deal would not be successful, and this was already the biggest preferential treatment that the Queen Mother could give, so he glanced at Zhu Qing and said: "The Taoist chief went down the mountain to practice for the world, and the Queen Mother was the grandmother of a country, and the Taoist Chang helped thousands of people, but it was no match for the Queen Mother. β
Seeing Chu Nian's words, Zhu Qing's complexion softened, and the Queen Mother suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly praised Chu Nian's brain for turning fast, she really wanted to live forever, and her brain was spent.
After a while, Zhu Qing had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay, it's just this Jishitang ......"
Afraid that Zhuqing would regret it, the Queen Mother hurriedly said: "Since there is a Taoist chief to help the mourning family cure the stubborn disease, after the mourning family returns to the palace, the child will be released, and the Taoist chief does not need to worry about this, on the contrary, he should return to the palace with the mourning family in time." β
Chu Nian retreated calmly, and then Zhu Qing nodded and said, "It's okay." β
β¦β¦
Soon after Zhu Qing and the Queen Mother returned to the palace, the Queen Mother sent someone to send her back, but she returned to Jishitang, and she refused to speak until Chu Nian lifted her sleeves and saw the whiplash on her arm.
Chu Nian frowned suddenly, and without waiting for Ah Wu to continue dodging, he ripped off the rest of her clothes, only to see that on her body and neck, there were countless whiplashes of all sizes, it seemed that there were barbs on this whip, and above the whiplashes were uneven wounds.
Looking at the shocking wounds on Ah Wan's body, Chu Nian's face sank.
"How long are you going to hide?"
Auntie cowered and didn't dare to look at Chu Nian, opened her mouth and said, "Lady, I'm fine......"
It's okay? Is this called okay? Chu Nian only felt that there was a breath in her chest, and she was so suffocated that her face turned red. Of course, she knew that the Queen Mother's kind face hid a tyrannical soul, but just because Auntie didn't have a prescription for immortality, she was so angry and tortured like this?
Chu Nian was even more angry at her own powerlessness, in her previous life, she relied on the power of her father and brother plus her behind-the-scenes operations, if it weren't for her father's trust in Liu Qi too much, and she trusted Shen Duan too much, the Su family would be able to easily solve all kinds of problems, but now her strength is still too weak, so she can be bullied.
In this life, she has made up her mind to take revenge as her lifelong goal, and she will not hesitate to pay any price, but how can she make the people around her hurt again and again?
If...... If she hadn't brought Zhuqing back, and there was no way to exchange her from the Queen Mother's hands, what would happen to her grandmother?
The Queen Mother's heart is too vicious! Don't let such people cause disaster again!
Oh, she still cares about her face, afraid that her grandmother will sue her, and she specially threatened her grandmother! And Shen Ruan, the culprit of all this, who dared to bully her when she wasn't there? I really thought she Chu Nian was good-tempered!
Chu Nian clenched his fists and clenched his silver teeth, "Jishitang has been closed for the past few days, you can cultivate your body and talk about other things." β
In Grandma's impression, her own lady has always had a gentle smile on her face, when has she ever shown such a strong murderous aura? Seeing Chu Nian's appearance, Ah Wu didn't dare to say anything more, so she had to close her mouth and turn around obediently towards the inner hall, at this time, a figure came from outside the door.
"Yo, who made the third lady angry? With such a strong murderous aura, are you going to lift the roof of Jishitang? β
Seeing the person coming, Chu Niancai restrained his complexion, but his face was still expressionless, "How did Mr. Jinyan come here today." β
Tao Jinyan shook the folding fan in his hand gently, as if he didn't care much about Chu Nian's attitude, "Naturally, I came to ask the third lady to fulfill the agreement, and today, I am here to collect my own reward." β
"Mr. Jinyan, it could not have come at a better time." Gritting his teeth, Chu Nian got up and said with a long sigh of relief: "Come with me, the children are in the backyard." β
Tao Jinyan squinted his eyes and smiled slightly, undeniable.
In the backyard, the children seemed to be playing hide and seek, it was Rong'er who caught the ghost, Cuixiang accompanied him behind him, and some of the remaining children hid behind the trees, and some got into the house, just waiting for Rong'er to finish counting.
Chu Nian opened his mouth to interrupt them, but was stopped by Tao Jinyan on the side, Chu Nian looked at him with puzzled eyes, and saw that he was still smiling, but his eyes fell on the children present, so he closed his mouth and let him observe carefully.
After Rong'er finished counting, she raised her eyes, looked around with a probe, and said loudly: "I'm going to start looking!" β
He walked towards the rockery in the courtyard, first found a cover to hide his body, and then said loudly: "Dafu, I saw you!" β
The child who was called Dafu suddenly came out of the rockery on Rong'er's side, "You ...... again" But in an instant, he reacted, and looked at Rong'er who jumped out of the side in annoyance, "Shen Qianrong! You're lying to me again! β
Rong'er grinned mischievously. "Didn't you also get deceived by me, okay, the first one I found was you, you have to help me find someone else now!"
As he spoke, he raised his legs and walked towards the other corner of the yard, Dafu pouted and walked towards the house, and after a while, Rong'er grabbed another child hiding behind a tree, the child screamed, on the other side, Dafu also carried a little boy out, and several people set out to look for it again, but a tea time, there was only one child missing.
Rong'er looked at the others who were caught out by him with a bitter face, "Where did Xiao Wu go?" β
The children next to him also looked frustrated, "Every time, she hides the deepest, and none of us can find her." β
Seeing this, Rong'er had no choice but to sigh like a little adult, "Xiao Wu, come out quickly, you won." β
