Chapter Seventy-Eight: Which Xuan Gongzi
It was almost noon, and it was a little stuffy in the car, Shen Yue'e reached into her sleeve and wanted to take out a handkerchief to wipe her sweat, but her face suddenly stiffened.
"My veil ......"
Sanniang looked at Shen Yue'e when she heard this, and saw that she had searched all over her body but couldn't find it, so she said, "But where is it lost?" ”
"I obviously still had the ...... in my hand when I went out," Shen Yue'e said this, as if she suddenly thought of something, and her face turned pale.
Sanniang's doubts were even worse.
"Miss Biao, your name is embroidered on that handkerchief, and it will not be good if someone finds it after all." Yingge stepped forward to help Shen Yue'e find it, but to no avail, she couldn't help but worry.
Shen Yue'e was even more irritable when she heard this.
"I can still lose it on purpose."
Shen Yue, whose whereabouts are unknown in the temple, and the lost embroidered handkerchief with a name, Sanniang's heart is full of alarm bells.
"Stop." Sanniang shouted outward.
The carriage slowly stopped, and Sanniang turned her head and instructed Bai Yingdao: "You take the two mothers-in-law back to the temple to see if you can find the square handkerchief that Miss Biao lost." Don't make a noise, just say which mother-in-law accidentally left it. ”
Bai Ying was about to get out of the car, but she heard Yingge say, "Third Miss, let's go as a slave." The slave and maid recognized Miss Biao's handkerchief, and the slave and maid had followed the old lady to Dapu Temple several times before, and she was also familiar with the temple. ”
Sanniang thought about it, and felt that Yingge was calm and relieved that she was sent to the past, so she nodded accurately.
Yingge ordered the two mothers-in-law, vacated a carriage, and hurried away.
"It's just a handkerchief, do you need to be so nervous?" Shen Yue'e muttered stiffly, but did not stop Sanniang from instructing Yingge.
Sanniang closed her eyes, rested against the wall of the car, and didn't care.
"You smile at strangers. Why are you just sneering at me, you just look down on me like them. Shen Yue'e suddenly said fiercely.
Sanniang opened her eyes a little helplessly. Said seriously: "You think that my kind words to you are hypocritical, I think I am still sincere to you." ”
Shen Yue'e was speechless, and Sanniang continued to close her eyes and rest.
Sanniang and the others returned to Zhao Mansion and waited until Shen Shiyingge turned back.
Sanniang asked with her eyes, Yingge glanced at Liu, who was being served to drink medicine, frowned and shook her head.
Sanniang sighed, she did her best to obey the destiny of heaven, she had already done what she should have done, and now she could only hope that Shen Yue'e would have better luck.
Shen Yue'e naturally saw Yingge's shaking of her head. But it's a low head that makes people can't see their expressions clearly.
Day 2.
Sanniang and Wang Jing still arrived at Zhao's Mansion early in the morning.
As soon as he finished serving Liu, he drank a bowl of porridge and took medicine, when someone came in outside to report that there was a Xuan Gongzi outside the house who asked to see him.
Sanniang was stunned, and Shen Yue, who was sitting on the side, jumped up in shock.
Sanniang glanced at Shen Yue. Shen Yue'e bit her lip and sat down again as if nothing had happened. I just picked up the tea bowl uneasily, and wanted to take a sip to calm down.
"Miss, the tea in your hand is cold. It's not good for your body to drink it, so the slave will help you change a cup of hot one. Yingge took the tea bowl from Shen Yue'e's hand and said softly.
Shen Yue'e just wanted to say no, but she caught a glimpse of where the water in the tea bowl was cold but had already run out of water, thinking that this bowl of tea had just been drunk because she felt thirsty, so she covered the tea bowl and opened it by Yingge.
"Which Xuan Gongzi?" Zhao Xiuniang helped Liu wipe the saliva from the corner of her mouth. After thinking for a while, he asked the woman suspiciously. came to report Liu's yard, and the person who came naturally came to visit Liu's. But in her impression, she didn't remember that the Liu family had dealings with the family surnamed Xuan.
"That son said that his surname was Xuan Shao, and he was invited by the fifth son of the Wang family to diagnose the old lady's pulse." Mother-in-law said.
Shen Yue'e's originally tense body instantly softened, and she was shocked to find that her hands were already drenched in cold sweat.
Sanniang was overjoyed when she heard this, could it be that Xuan Shao had already invited Imperial Doctor Jiang?
Wang Jingyin was also present yesterday, knew the whole story, glanced at Sanniang, and said to Zhao Xiuniang: "Aunt Xiu, I met Xuan Gongzi in the temple yesterday, because I accidentally learned that he was a disciple of Imperial Physician Jiang, so I asked him to help me invite Imperial Physician Jiang to show my grandmother. Ben also had the attitude of giving it a try, thinking that he might not be able to invite someone, so he didn't mention it to you, but he didn't want Xuan Gongzi to invite Imperial Doctor Jiang so quickly. ”
Zhao Xiuniang was overjoyed: "There is such a thing! ”
"The man who came with that son is indeed an old man with crane hair and a childish face." The woman hurriedly said.
"Please, please." Zhao Xiu'e stood up from the couch.
"Yue'e, Ake, it's better for you to go inside and take refuge." Zhao Xiu'e remembered and said.
Sanniang nodded and took Bai Ying to the next door for a while, but Shen Yue'e said, "Mother, I'll go change clothes." ”
She was covered in cold sweat, thinking about taking advantage of this gap to change her clothes, Zhao Xiuniang saw that she had just drunk so much water, thinking that she wanted to be convenient and didn't care.
Sanniang sat down for a while, and then listened to the sound of Zhao Xiuniang welcoming people in outside.
"Imperial Doctor Jiang, it's great that you can come, my mother is like this now, and the doctors in Ziyang City are helpless......"
"Alright, let's all go down first." An old voice was a little hoarse.
There was silence outside.
"Imperial Doctor Jiang, he doesn't like people next to him when he sees a doctor." A slightly cold voice said.
"Oh, good, good. Let's get out. After Zhao Xiuniang came back to her senses, she hurriedly said, she had also heard about some quirks of this imperial doctor, so she immediately led everyone down, and did not forget to close the door.
Sanniang was silent in the house, thinking that Aunt Xiu was happy to forget that there was another her in the house, and was thinking about going out by herself, but she heard the hoarse old voice say: "You begged me to come, and promised me to go to the land of the south miasma to find medicinal herbs, just to treat this old woman?" What do you have to do with her? ”
Sanniang couldn't help but pause.
"It has nothing to do with it, it's just what my friends want." Xuan Shao's voice was as cold as a spring, but it was extremely good, and compared with the old man's voice, it was like fairy music.
"Do you still have friends in Ziyang City?" The old man said suspiciously.
Xuan Shao was silent for a while, and said, "It's time to collect your medicine until noon, and you may forget it again if you are not in the medicine boy." ”
There was silence outside, followed by the sound of footsteps moving quickly to the couch, and then there was silence again, probably a pulse diagnosis outside.
After a while, a hoarse voice said again: "The true yang is decaying, and the yin is flourishing and the yang energy is rushing upward." Yang energy rushes upwards and gathers in the brain so that it cannot return to the source. Fortunately, the symptoms are not too serious, and there is no need to cut the head, just use a needle. ”
"Bang dang" Bai Ying's hand shook and touched the lid of the incense burner at hand.
"Who's in there? Come out for me. The hoarse voice said.
Bai Ying looked at Sanniang apologetically, Sanniang shook her head helplessly, and walked out with Bai Ying.
In front of Liu's couch sat an old man with hair like snow, but his face was smooth and white with few wrinkles, standing beside him, standing tall and looking at Xuan Shao with raised eyebrows.
"Wang's Sanniang has seen Imperial Doctor Jiang." Sanniang smiled and saluted the old man, and then said to Xuan Shao.
"Xuan Gongzi."
Xuan Shao nodded lightly, but the old man looked at it sharply.
"Didn't the old man say that he didn't like others to be present when he saw a doctor? Are you deaf or are you deliberately trying to go against the old man's will? ”
Sanniang said apologetically: "I was supposed to avoid the inside, but I didn't want to hear the imperial doctor ask to avoid it." Sanniang hesitated for a moment, and then missed the opportunity to come out, and then she was afraid of disturbing your diagnosis, so she was so cheeky that she had to come out now. ”
Hearing this, Imperial Physician Jiang raised his eyebrows, and looked at her with a pair of sharp eyes, although Sanniang's eyes drooped slightly, he was generous and let him look at it, and he was not restrained.
"Do you know why the old man avoids people when he checks his pulse?" Imperial Physician Jiang suddenly laughed, but that smile was somehow a little gloomy.
Sanniang thought for a while and said, "Presumably, when you diagnose and treat, if necessary, you will take some extraordinary measures, and you are afraid that the patient's family will care about you and delay your diagnosis and treatment, so people will avoid it." ”
Imperial Doctor Jiang was a little surprised when he heard this, but he smiled slowly: "You guess it's not far from ten, because the old man may need to use a knife to open the patient's intestines and stomach when he diagnoses and treats, and the old man is afraid that this move will scare some laypeople." It's obviously those laymen who are short-sighted and lack of knowledge, but they think that the old man is a butcher who handles knives and a monster who kills people. ”
"Miss." Bai Ying shook her hand and pulled at Sanniang's sleeve, her eyes showing fear, she remembered what she had just heard in the room that Imperial Doctor Jiang was going to cut open the human skull. Can the person who opens the intestines and splits the head still live? Where is this healer? Bai Ying is an eleven or twelve-year-old girl after all, and these are not things she can understand at all.
Sanniang patted Bai Ying's hand but thoughtfully, this Imperial Doctor Jiang would actually think of having surgery to treat the disease. The ancients all said that the body is affected by the parents, and damaging the body is unfilial. There are also rumors among the folk that if the body is crippled and enters the underworld after death, the king of Hades will not accept it, so he will not be reincarnated, but can only be a lonely ghost.
Thinking of this, Sanniang has some respect for this Imperial Doctor Jiang, not everyone has the courage to challenge the world.
"Qu Gao is inevitably widowed, and the healer is naturally focused on curing the disease, and one day the world will understand you, because all the world is empty in front of life." Sanniang thought about it, and suddenly blew up mischievously: "I also heard that the road of genius is lonely, I'm afraid that you still have to continue to be lonely on this road." ”
Imperial Physician Jiang was stunned when he heard this, then laughed, and only looked at Sanniang for a long time and said, "Your doll is a little interesting, and you are bold." After so many years, I have been so frightened and calm, and the only person who is calm and calm is Shao'er. ”
Sanniang smiled when she heard the words and looked at Xuan Shao on the side, but saw that his black eyes were looking at her steadily, and the originally cold eyes still had a smile that was not perceptible, which made the already handsome and dusty face more and more unbearable, and Sanniang couldn't help but be stunned when she looked at it.
