Chapter 259: A Tragic Encounter
Lan Jing'an and Bai Qingfeng talked secretly for a full hour, and by the time Bai Qingfeng went out, it was almost dinner time. However, since he promised to help Lan Jing'an, he first had to inform Xiao Qingyun of her stay here, and discuss with Lu Min and Wan Mingde about the preparations for going north.
In the side hall, because Lan Jing'an didn't speak, Biluan was still sitting with Jiang Mingshu. Waiting for Bai Qingfeng to come out, Lan Jing'an asked Biluan to invite Jiang Mingshu back to the main hall. Lan Jing'an now has no sick look on his face, and waits for Jiang Mingshu with a smile on his face.
Before the incident happened suddenly, Lan Jingan hadn't looked at Jiang Mingshu carefully. I saw that Jiang Mingshu was thin, even though she was not young, but her appearance was outstanding. And her calm temperament is the most rare. Lan Jing'an felt that in terms of temperament alone, Doctor Jiang was afraid that he couldn't compare to Jiang Mingshu. Jiang Yutang is more like his aunt.
Lan Jing'an personally stepped forward, took Jiang Mingshu's hand, and asked her to sit in the position where Bai Qingfeng sat in front of her. Jiang Mingshu excused herself again and again, Lan Jing'an asked Biluan to press her, and said with a smile: "Aunt Jiang, what is this politeness?" Let's put aside our identity, I'm a junior, it's disrespectful to be able to sleep with you, it's good if you don't dislike it. ”
Jiang Mingshu said "don't dare" while sitting down with him, quietly waiting for Lan Jing'an to speak first. Jiang Mingshu had heard her brother mention the great priest many times before, praising her for being the best woman in the world. When Jiang Mingshu saw Lan Jing'an wake up to see her for the first time, she knew that her brother's judgment was good.
Lan Jing'an's pulse confirmed that she was indeed shocked and angry before. But after she woke up, she collected her emotions all over her body, and even her pulse was peaceful. Jiang Mingshu has seen too many people after being hit, but few people can calm down from the inside to the outside in such a short period of time. Therefore, this big priest must not be an ordinary person, Jiang Mingshu naturally treats it carefully.
Lan Jing'an didn't care what Jiang Mingshu thought in his heart, and took the lead in speaking: "I heard that Doctor Jiang went to Yuzhou to look for you, and I thought that I would see you in Jizhou, but I didn't expect us to meet in Jiangling. I wonder how long my aunt has been in Gangneung? Are you okay in Gangneung? ”
Jiang Mingshu replied respectfully: "Thank you for your concern, the untouchables arrived in Jiangling five months ago, and everything is fine." ”
Lan Jing'an said with a smile on his face: "Doctor Jiang has saved my life many times before, and Doctor Jiang has helped me a lot. As soon as I saw Aunt Jiang, it was like seeing a relative. I wonder if Aunt Jiang is willing to accompany me to live in this Chengjing Palace? ”
Jiang Mingshu replied: "I am willing to listen to the arrangement of the great secretary." Lan Jing'an nodded to Bi Luan, and Bi Luan went out to make arrangements. When there were only two people left in the hall, Lan Jing'an and Jiang Mingshu were left, and Lan Jing'an asked: "Aunt Jiang, I don't ask why you help me, I just want to ask, is there anything I can do to make my aunt feel happy?" ”
Lan Jing'an knew that half of the kindness of Doctor Jiang's father and son to her came from their loyalty to her, and the other half came from their friendship with Xiao Qingyun. But Jiang Mingshu catered to her like this, obviously she should have something else to ask for. Since Jiang Mingshu is willing to help herself, she must always have something in return.
Jiang Mingshu shook his head: "I don't want anything." As long as the great priest is happy, I will be happy. Lan Jing'an casually touched the teacup with her fingertips, and now the tea in front of her was already cold, and she drank the residual tea in front of Jiang Mingshu.
Jiang Mingshu just looked at her and didn't say anything. Lan Jing'an smiled: "Aunt Jiang is really a considerate person. I don't know where your healer came from, auntie? ”
Jiang Mingshu replied: "When my brother returned from school, I followed him every day and stole some teachers. Later, I went around and learned a little more. So I'm not good at medicine, and I haven't even touched the skin. ”
Lan Jing'an smiled: "Aunt is modest. If you want to read medical books, I'll ask Feng Shen to collect some for you. All you have to do is give Bi Luan the book list. In the future, you will live in this Chengjing Hall for a long time, and we will meet for a long time, and it is estimated that we will be able to get acquainted soon, and I hope you will not think that I and Biluan are making trouble. I have to take care of my aunt more of my body. ”
While the two were talking, Bi Luan came back to his life. Bi Luan gave the first room in the west hall to Jiang Mingshu to live in, and at the same time sent four maidservants to serve her. Lan Jing'an saw that the arrangements were in place, and only said that she would ask Jiang Mingshu to check her pulse tomorrow, and let her rest well today, so she asked the maidservant to send her to pack her things and move.
When everyone left, Lan Jing'an asked Biluan to set the table and have dinner with her alone. Lan Jingan asked Bi Luan: "What is the situation with this Jiang Mingshu?" Why did you get her here today? I hadn't heard of her in Gangneung before. ”
Bi Luan had already inquired for a while, and talked to Jiang Mingshu in the side hall for a long time, so she had a certain understanding of her: "Jiang Mingshu is the only sister of Doctor Jiang, a full ten years younger than Doctor Jiang, it is said that Doctor Jiang hurt this sister to the bone at the beginning. Doctor Jiang's parents went early, and Jiang Mingshu was also brought up by Doctor Jiang and his wife. ”
"When Jiangling City was broken and the city was on fire, Doctor Jiang took the whole family to escape from Jiangling City. At that time, Doctor Jiang's wife was pregnant, so Doctor Jiang asked Jiang Mingshu, who had just arrived at the end of the year, to escort her first, and he followed closely with his son. Unexpectedly, they were discovered by a team of Dayong soldiers, and they were about to kill Jiang Shenyi at that time. ”
Doctor Jiang took his son to lead away the pursuers, hoping to save the lives of his wife and sister. When he went back, his wife and the child in her belly were killed on the street, and Jiang Mingshu was nowhere to be found. Because the fire had started, Doctor Jiang had to leave in tears for the sake of his son, leaving his wife dead on the street. This is also why Doctor Jiang hates the Yuwen clan so much. ”
In fact, Jiang Mingshu did not die at that time, but was captured by Dayong's officers and soldiers. She was young at the time, and she was good-looking, so she was arrested, pretended, pretended..."Bi Luan's words were a little stumbling at this point.
Lan Jing was taken aback, and had already guessed that the joints of the hand pressed on the case began to turn white. Bi Luan swallowed and foamed, and continued: "She has been in the barracks, tossing and turning in many places. Many of the girls who were arrested with her died, and she relied on a little medical skills with Jiang Shen at the beginning, and later learned some from the medical officers in the camp, and treated herself herself, so she barely lost her life. ”
Later, because of her outstanding appearance, she was taken by a petty official under Yuwen Junping and got her to go to her back house. That petty official was just a temporary freshness to her, and he didn't treat her seriously. And the eldest wife of the petty official beat and scolded her, and poured her a bowl of Jezi soup in front of the petty official, forcing the petty official to let her do housework. ”
"Although Doctor Jiang also searched around back then, what could be the result of the chaos at the beginning. When we were in Xiangyang, once the situation here was overheard by her when she was entertaining, and she knew that Doctor Jiang was not dead. Then she used another method and sent a letter, and Doctor Jiang knew that she was in Yuzhou. ”
"I heard that she has relied on a few medical books over the years to make a living. And she always meets similar poor people in the same situation, and tries to use her medical skills to help these people living at the lowest level. I also heard that a medical officer under Yuwen Junping knew that junior officer, liked her very much, often went to her, and taught her housekeeping skills. But I couldn't get it out for her. Later, it was this person who gave a message to our people. ”
"So although this Jiang Mingshu's medical skills can't be compared with Doctor Jiang's father and son, according to Doctor Jiang Zeng and Lord Bai, she should be better than most medical officials. It's just that because of her previous experience, she refused to accept the title of medical officer, and she didn't practice medicine seriously, so she only lived in seclusion in Gangneung City. This time, it was Lord Bai who was worried about you, so he panicked and found her. ”
