Chapter 191: Straight to the Guogong Mansion
Xie Yunhuai must have been killed.
Today is the day they agreed to come to Shen Xihe for a follow-up consultation, Xie Yunhuai has something to leave Kyoto temporarily, and he will definitely send someone to inform her, such a silent disappearance is definitely not Xie Yunhuai's style of acting.
Shen Xihe personally went to the place where Xie Yunhuai lived, a small courtyard with a fence, an adobe thatched house, a path with polished and smooth stones in the middle, and some flowers and plants planted on both sides.
There are still medicinal herbs drying in the yard, which are mixed with dead leaves that have fallen at some point, Shen Xihe pushed open the door, and it was neat and clear at a glance, there was indeed dust on the table, and there were a lot of ingredients in the kitchen, rotten vegetable leaves, and soaked moldy and smelly glutinous rice.
He had indeed been missing for three days, and three days ago he should have been preparing to eat these things that day, but he left for some reason before he could do so, and there was no trace of a fight at home, and his medicine box was not there, it was very likely that it was a first diagnosis, and it was an emergency.
"He is very skilled, and he is well-versed in medical science, and ordinary people can't plot against him." Shen Xihe lowered his eyes, "He won't easily see people who don't know the roots, so before he was ready to do the evening meal, someone he knew came to look for him, so he left with him......"
"County lord, my subordinates asked the city gate guard, someone entered the city three days ago, and he didn't know who he was with." Mo Yuan ran to report.
The people of Kyoto are outstanding, but Xie Yunhuai is a man of nature, and he is a doctor, who lives outside the city, and has to go in and out of the city several times a day.
"Is that man unique?" Shen Xihe asked.
"The soldiers guarding the city just glanced at it and said that most of the clothes were from the mansion of the nobles in Beijing." Mo Yuan inquired in detail, but did not ask for other available letters.
Kyoto is a wealthy family, royalty, nobles, families, and clear streams, but each has its own preferences, and the clothes of the subordinates are generally the uniform clothes of the four seasons in the mansion, and the royal family does not need to say much, and most of the inner guards have always brought knives.
Most of the nobles are knighted by military merits, and they are biased towards people who practice martial arts, and most of their subordinates are tight sleeves, and the subordinates of the family have narrow sleeves but will be slightly particular about dressing, and the subordinates of the Qingliu family are dressed in simple clothes.
The defenders of the city have to meet all kinds of people every year, and they have some intuitive judgment of people's origins.
"Send someone to investigate, and in the past five days, there will be a duke and earl's house in a hurry to find a doctor." Shen Xihe's eyes narrowed slightly, she left Xie Yunhuai's residence and returned to the county lord's mansion, Mo Yuan had already inquired about what she wanted to know.
In Kyoto, there are only four dukes, five marquis and seven uncles, and these sixteen noble mansions, the result of inquiring is that there are doctors who are invited, but there are no doctors who are urgently needed, let alone send a post to the Imperial Medical Department.
If there is a tricky disease in the Xungui Mansion, ordinary Langzhong can't, it must be to ask a doctor from the Taiyi Department, if the Taiyi Department is also helpless, he will die as a live horse doctor and visit Langzhong, who is praised by the people.
"I know who it is." Shen Xihe looked in the direction of Chongyi Street, where was the Duke of Xie Guo's mansion.
"Is it Xie Guogong who detained Doctor Qi?" Biyu was stunned, "Won't the Xie Guo Guild be unfavorable to Doctor Qi?" ”
Shen Xihe returned to the house in silence and sat down in contemplation: "He is so smart, if Xie Guogong is not good for him, he will definitely not go to Xie Guogong's mansion." ”
"Could it be that Dr. Qi didn't know about it and was plotted by Xie Guogong?" Hongyu was also quite worried about Xie Yunhuai, if it weren't for Xie Yunhuai, Shen Xihe would not have recovered.
Shen Xihe shook his head slightly.
Xie Yunhuai came back this time to seek justice for his deceased mother, he must be staring at every move of Xie Guogong's mansion, and it is absolutely impossible for Xie Guogong to be easily calculated.
If Xie Guogong had the intention to kill Xie Yunhuai, there was no need to wait until today, not to mention that Xie Yunhuai had been in Kyoto for so long, even if he had murderous intentions, he didn't have to delay until now.
"He should have gone to Xie Guogong's Mansion willingly, and he also brought a medicine box...... "Shen Xihe felt very contradictory here.
Xie Yunhuai will treat the daughter of the Yuan family, but will never save the Xie family, and it will be even more impossible if he is poisoned, otherwise the Xie family will be poisoned and die in the future, and he will be the first to suspect him. But he went, and brought a medicine box, which was clearly to see a doctor for the first time.
Something always flashed in Shen Xihe's brain, but she didn't catch it.
Looking at Shen Xihe and Ning Mei pondered for a long time, Pearl put a letter sent to the ground: "County Lord, the news from Duhuolou." ”
Shen Xihe took it and took a look, and Huo Ran stood up.
Someone bought the medicinal materials that King Xun needed, and there were still a lot of them, they were divided into several pharmacies, and they grabbed a few different medicines, each of which was full of these medicinal materials, and these people lost them, and Shen Xihe read them again, some of them seemed to be far away from Chongyi Street, but they were actually very close.
With a road map outlined around Xie Guogong's Mansion in his mind, Shen Xihe found that these people were all very close to Xie Guogong's Mansion.
"I know, he was taken by Xie Guogong to treat others!" Shen Xihe's eyes were slightly dark, she got up and went to the kitchen, commanded Hongyu and others to help, and made a ginkgo cake.
Inspired by Xiao Huayong's ginkgo tea, she and Hongyu had a mouthful, and Hongyu made a kind of ginkgo shortbread.
After tasting it, Shen Xihe felt that the taste was very good, and he also wanted to share Xiao Huayong.
"Hongyu, send the ginkgo cake to the East Palace, and I want to tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince about King Xun's hiding of the Duke of Xie Guo." Shen Xihe commanded in a low voice.
Xie Yunhuai was in the hands of King Xun, and Shen Xihe had to be cautious.
After instructing Hongyu, Shen Xihe asked Biyu to go to the Duchess of Xie Guo to post a post to Yuan, and then re-dressed
"County Lord, Duchess Xie Guo said that she has been unwell recently, and it is not good to entertain the county lord, and after she recovers from her illness, she will post a post to invite the county lord and make amends to the county lord." Jasper soon returned, and brought Yuan's personal maid.
Shen Xihe smiled faintly: "The next post is just to give her a bit of face." ”
Without glancing at Yuan's maid, Shen Xihe got into the carriage with his short life in his arms and went directly to Xie Guogong's mansion.
The door of Xie Guogong's mansion was knocked open, and when the subordinates saw Shen Xihe, they naturally didn't dare to hang people outside and wait, Shen Xihe entered, and jumped from Shen Xihe's arms in a short life.
"Jasper, Moyu, don't let it run around." Shen Xihe picked up the tea, gently lifted the lid of the tea, and commanded lightly.
Jasper and Moyu will understand and chase a short life, although the county lord's cat is ugly, the subordinates of the Xie Guo Mansion do not dare to use force, plus the short life is arrogant, and when he sees a stranger, he scratches it with a claw, its nails Shen Xihe never trims, and it will not be like other noble women who raise cats in captivity.
Shen Xihe will drive his short life outside to forage for food, so as not to lose his instinct, so one claw must be the skin and flesh.
No pop-ups
