Chapter 201: The Wind Rises
After the old man was sent back to Beijing after being sent back to Beijing, the emperor immediately asked the hospital to bring someone to treat him, but unfortunately the hospital was still helpless against the poison on the old man's body.
The emperor was furious, scolded the Yuanzheng, and then sent all the doctors of the Tai Hospital to the Zhenguo Mansion for consultation. However, whether it was the imperial doctor or the doctors invited from other medical centers in Kyoto, they argued for several days, but they still couldn't know what to do.
The entire Zhenguo Mansion was plunged into a gloomy mist, from the master to the maid, and all the smiles on their faces were gone.
Mrs. Tai asked the second master, the third master and others to take turns to serve the sick, and the county lord of Chang'an and several ladies also came over to help every day. Several masters discussed with Mrs. Tai and decided to put up a notice to find a good doctor for the old man.
Xiao Jinyue was silent about this, and when it was her turn to serve the old man with Lu Chengting, she divided the people who were guarding the old man, and then secretly took his pulse.
The poison on Lao Guogong's body is also very tricky, but fortunately, Xiao Jinyue used Lingquan water to prepare medicine, let Nanyan send it to the border gate, and secretly fed Lao Guogong, which saved his life.
Xiao Jinyue took the pulse, returned to Shi'an Yuan and began to prepare antidote pills.
It took three days for the pills to be prepared, and then they were secretly given to the old country.
Seeing that the old prince had been unconscious, Mrs. Tai decided to take the female dependents of the house to Ciguang Temple to burn incense and worship the Buddha.
In addition to Mrs. Tai, the three ladies and the girls from various provinces, whether they are concubines or concubines, all have to go. Xiao Jinyue, as the princess of the Guogong Mansion, naturally has to follow.
Everyone took a carriage to Ciguang Temple, worshiped the Bodhisattvas in each hall, and donated a large amount of sesame oil money, and then went home.
Since the old prince returned to the house, although Lu Chengting still pretended to have inconvenient legs and feet in front of outsiders, every time he returned to Shi'an Yuan from the courtyard of the old prince, he secretly went out with the guards.
Xiao Jinyue didn't know what he was busy with outside, but every time he came back from outside, his face became more and more ugly day by day.
Originally, Xiao Jinyue didn't plan to inquire about him, after all, the poison on Lu Chengting's body was gradually improving, and she would have to leave the Zhenguo Mansion one day sooner or later.
At dinner that day, Xiao Jinyue saw that he had come back earlier than usual.
After the two had a meal silently, Lu Chengting left her to talk.
It turned out that he had been out early and returned late recently, because when the secret guard went to the border to pick up the old man, he found out that the old man was poisoned this time, and it was likely that there was a spy in the army.
The secret guard also found out that the generals at the border pass seemed to have different intentions, and there were unusual movements in the army.
Lu Chengting recently secretly went out early and returned late in order to find out the movements in the army.
It's just that the military power in his hands has been handed back to the emperor, and with his current status, some things are not easy to investigate.
Lu Chengting guessed that there might be changes in the court recently, and he told Xiao Jinyue that if he went out, he must bring enough people to ensure his own safety.
After listening to Lu Chengting's words, Xiao Jinyue was worried that there would be another war, so she went back to her parents' house, discussed with her eldest brother Xiao Haoqing, and handed over all the money that could be used in her hand to Xiao Haoqing.
asked him to privately send people to other state capitals to buy all kinds of food as much as possible and stock them up, Xiao Jinyue also copied a copy of the weapon building method given to Lu Chengting to his eldest brother, and asked him to find a way to build as many weapons as possible.
Although they have no intention of rebelling, this is not a time of peace, and war may break out at any time. For the safety of her family, what Xiao Jinyue can do is to do her best and prepare for the worst.
Xiao Jinyue wrote down the sugar recipe and papermaking method, and asked Xiao Haoqing to send someone to the second steward in Minzhou as soon as possible.
In the letter, she explained that she asked the second steward to sell the formula to the merchants from Fanbang as soon as possible, and it was best to sell it to a few different countries, and use the silver obtained to quietly buy a large number of medicinal herbs and grain in the south.
The day after returning from Xiao Mansion, Song Chuyao, the concubine of Ningguo Mansion, came to Zhenguo Mansion with a doctor.
I heard that the doctor is a well-known miracle doctor among the people, especially good at treating all kinds of strange viruses.
This miracle doctor is very famous, and often the dragon sees the head but not the end, and Song Chuyao also wasted a lot of effort this time and sent a lot of people to invite him over.
Mrs. Tai received her with several ladies, and in the face of Song Chuyao, who looked beautiful and fragrant, spoke softly, and advanced and retreated, from Mrs. Tai to the maid and mother-in-law, everyone was full of praise.
Even Xiao Jinyue felt that this Song Chuyao was worthy of being a famous noble girl in Kyoto, no matter how she looked at it, she was very good. She was even curious if this was Lu Chengting's sweetheart.
After all, Lu Chengting and this Song Chuyao, the two can be regarded as a very good match, and from the perspective of appearance, they are talented and beautiful, and they are a very good pair.
The miracle doctor she brought should also have a lot of ability.
It's just that the imperial doctors of the entire Tai Hospital are helpless against the virus of Lao Guogong, and this miracle doctor may not have a way.
After all, with Xiao Jinyue's medical skills, if it weren't for the various instruments in the space to test the poison on Lao Guogong's body, she probably wouldn't know how much time it would take to prepare the antidote pill.
Xiao Jinyue's guess was correct, after the miracle doctor examined the old man, he shook his head and said that he couldn't do anything.
The whole Zhenguo Mansion showed a disappointed look, and at this time, after Lu Chengting came back from outside, he asked the guards to carry him to visit the old Guogong with a seat.
To everyone's surprise, when he saw the prince of Zhenguo, the miracle doctor actually took the initiative to help him take the pulse, saying that he couldn't help the poison of the old prince, but knowing that the prince of Zhenguo was also a pillar of the imperial court, he wanted to help him take the pulse to see if he could cure the poison on his body.
But Lu Chengting politely refused, and everyone in the Zhenguo Mansion didn't say anything, but that Song Chuyao persuaded him softly, but Lu Chengting still refused.
Xiao Jinyue's heart was full of surprises about this.
She was originally curious about whether Song Chuyao was Lu Chengting's sweetheart, so she secretly observed her. She found that when Lu Chengting came in, Miss Song gave the divine doctor a look, and the divine doctor said that he would help Lu Chengting take the pulse.
But what Xiao Jinyue didn't expect was that Lu Chengting actually refused, and she also saw that the light in Song Chuyao's eyes was dimmed, but there was no change on her face.
Xiao Jinyue muttered in her heart, did she guess wrong, Song Chuyao was not his sweetheart?
I don't know if Lu Chengting is worried that he has not separated from her yet, and it is not good to have contact with Miss Song in front of people, or because he is afraid that the miracle doctor will find out that his legs have recovered.
After Song Chuyao left, a few days later, a major event happened in the imperial court.
The eldest prince born by Zhao Guifei had a dispute or even a fight with the second prince born to the queen, and the eldest prince killed the second prince by mistake.
