The Favoured Medical Princess: 609 silence
www.novelmao.com, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Sheng Chong’s Daughter-in-law: The Medical Concubine!
Early in the morning, a small courtyard with three entrances in the west of Luoyue City welcomed several waves of guests. People living nearby knew that a doctor lived here, and they just thought that the visitors came to seek medical treatment. Yes, after taking a quick glance, I didn’t pay much attention to it.
“Zhihu——”
With the sound of the door opening, a green-covered carriage and a tall horse were ushered into the house by the rough lady.
“Mr. Wu, Brother Han.”
Nangong Yue had arrived early, smiling and welcoming guests in the courtyard with Lin Jingchen.
It was Imperial Physician Wu and Han Huaijun who came.
When Han Huaijun dismounted, he looked towards Nangong Yue without leaving any trace. Nangong Yue nodded slightly to him, and the two of them silently exchanged a knowing look.
After everyone saw the ceremony, Dr. Wu couldn’t wait to say to Lin Jingchen: “Doctor Lin, it’s rare to have the opportunity to meet Dr. Lin again thousands of miles away in southern Xinjiang. In addition to the condition of His Highness the Fifth Prince, I also have I have some medical doubts that I would like to discuss with the miracle doctor.”
I think it was the same when Dr. Wu met Lin Jingchen for the first time. Not willing to waste any time, Nangong Yue laughed and said, “Doctor Wu, it’s not too late to sit down and talk.” After saying that, she glanced in the direction of the main room. He glanced at it and then suggested, “Grandpa, Dr. Wu, let’s go to the study and have a detailed discussion?”
Hearing this, Dr. Wu’s eyes lit up and he thought to himself: There must be a lot of medical books, notes and insights from Dr. Lin’s medical practice in the study of Dr. Lin. It would be of great benefit to him if he had the opportunity to take a look at them. Princess, this is a good idea!
Physician Wu said hello eagerly and ordered the medicine boy: “Baizhu, quickly bring the medicine box and pulse record on the carriage.”
“Grandpa, Dr. Wu, you go ahead first.” Nangong Yue said, “The snacks I just made in the kitchen must be almost ready. I’ll go over and take a look first.”
Lin Jingchen naturally knew her intention, smiled and stroked his beard, and led Imperial Physician Wu to the study. In just a few dozen feet, the two of them were already talking about medical scriptures. Nangong Yue, who was in the rear, couldn’t help but laugh.
After watching Lin Jingchen and Dr. Wu enter the study one after another, Nangong Yue withdrew her gaze and shouted in the direction of the main room: “Sister Xia.”
Before he finished speaking, a girl in a blue dress had already stepped across the threshold.
Han Huaijun looked at Han Qixia in disbelief. In fact, after Fu Yunyan returned to the royal capital, Jiang Yixi made a special trip to Princess Yongyang’s mansion. From Fu Yunyan’s words, Han Huaijun and his wife learned a lot about Han Qixia’s current situation.
But hearing it with your ears is not as shocking as seeing it with your own eyes!
Han Qixia has changed so much! It’s like a new life!
The brother and sister looked at each other and didn’t speak for a long time. Both of them had red eyes. At this moment, everyone felt a little bit homesick.
After a while, Han Qixia smiled and said: “Brother, come in and sit down.”
Han Qixia turned sideways to make a request. Han Huaijun was startled again, then lifted up his robe and entered the main room.
Guessing that they must have a lot to say, Nangong Yue took the initiative to avoid it and took Baihui to Lin Jingchen’s study, naturally not forgetting the snacks prepared in advance.
The study was quiet. Lin Jingchen and Dr. Wu were sitting next to the window, separated by a table. Lin Jingchen was holding a stack of pulse tables given by Dr. Wu and looking at them carefully page by page.
After Nangong Yue entered the room, she picked up the pulse case that Lin Jingchen had read and read it page by page, while Baihui served everyone refreshments neatly.
For a while, the only sound in the room was the sound of paper being turned, rustling, rustling…
I don’t know how long it took, but Lin Jingchen finally put down the last pulse chart in his hand. Nangong Yue and Doctor Wu both looked at him subconsciously.
Lin Jingchen smoothed his beard, frowned slightly, and asked Imperial Physician Wu carefully about the condition of the fifth prince.
Physician Wu answered one by one, including the analysis and speculations of several doctors.
Although Nangong Yue and Doctor Wu both knew that the fifth prince’s situation was very bad, their hearts sank when they looked at Lin Jingchen’s solemn expression.
After another brief silence, Lin Jingchen mused: “Judging from the symptoms of His Highness the Fifth Prince, it is most likely that he has blood congestion in his brain.”
He also agreed with the diagnosis result of Tai Hospital, and then added: “In this case, it is best to use acupuncture, combined with medicine and massage. But I have not seen the patient with my own eyes, so it is difficult to apply acupuncture accurately…” As he said , he stroked his beard again, “Well, I have a set of acupuncture diagrams here. Although it cannot resolve the congestion in the brain of His Highness the Fifth Prince, it can relieve his headache symptoms…”
Physician Wu hurriedly cupped his fists and said, “Please ask Divine Physician Lin for advice!”
Next, with the drug boy Baizhu as the “patient”, Lin Jingchen pointed to the acupuncture points on his head and explained them in detail to Dr. Wu, while Baihui quickly wrote down notes on the side.
Nangong Yue listened attentively, feeling that she had benefited a lot this time. My medical skills are indeed far behind those of my grandfather!
Time passed quickly during the focused moment. It was not until poor Baizhu’s stomach growled that the few people in the study came back to their senses.
Physician Wu was a little funny, while Bai Shu blushed.
However, Lin Jingchen didn’t care. He greeted Baizhu with cakes with a smile, and said: “Mr. Wu, I have never heard of Baiyue’s Wuhe ointment, nor have I seen it. If possible, wait until I get the Wuhe ointment. Later, can you get some for me to take a look at?”
For Dr. Wu, this was just a piece of cake, so he hurriedly accepted the request. What’s more, Doctor Wu was also very curious about what this Wuhe ointment was.
Seeing that it was almost noon outside, Doctor Wu stood up and left.
When he came to the courtyard, Han Huaijun was waiting there.
Nangong Yue personally escorted Doctor Wu and Han Huaijun out. After the door of Lin’s house was closed, Han Qixia came from the house and looked at the closed door reluctantly.
Nangong Yue smiled and said: “Sister Xia, Brother Han should still stay in Luoyue City for a few days. If you want to see him, it won’t be difficult.”
Han Qixia breathed a long sigh of relief, as if she had let go of something again, her eyes became clearer and calmer, and she said: “My eldest brother just told me that he and his eldest sister-in-law should soon move out of Prince Qi’s Mansion and live alone in a separate mansion.”
Nangong Yue was stunned. She had already guessed that Han Huaijun and Jiang Yixi would move out of Prince Qi’s Mansion sooner or later, but this day came earlier than she expected.
“That’s fine!” Han Qixia said almost sighing, her expression extremely complicated.
Just now Han Huaijun told her some things that happened in Prince Qi’s Mansion in the past six months, one by one, which made Han Qixia almost reluctant to believe her ears——
For example, King Qi’s concubine Fang Ci, also known as Fang Ziteng, had given birth to three sons for King Qi a few months ago. Everyone praised these three sons for looking very similar to the prince…
For example, more than two months ago, the Crown Prince of Qi was almost accused of committing adultery and was brought to the Jingzhao Mansion. However, it was Princess Qi who gave the plaintiff hundreds of taels of silver to his family to reconcile with his wife.
For example…
Han Qixia felt heavy in her heart and didn’t understand how her home could become like that…such a mess!
No, in other words, ever since the way my father treated my eldest brother and his biological mother, it was already destined that the roots of Prince Qi’s palace would be rotten!
Even if she is still in the capital at this moment, she is powerless to change everything. No matter whether it is her father, mother, concubine or second brother, they will not listen to her.
Han Qixia couldn’t help but clenched her hands into fists in her sleeves and gave a bitter smile.
No matter how chaotic or absurd the Prince of Qi’s house is, my father is the emperor’s biological brother. Unless he plots rebellion, he can always preserve the glory of the Prince of Qi’s house! She didn’t need to bother with them.
“Sister Xia…” Looking at Han Qixia’s complicated expression, Nangong Yue took her hand and looked at her worriedly, vaguely guessing that Han Huaijun must have said something about Prince Qi’s palace that upset Han Qixia.
“I’m fine.” Han Qixia smiled calmly. She has already chosen to “escape” and leave that home, so what else can she not think about!
Han Qixia calmed down and remembered another thing. She held Nangong Yue’s hand and said, “Yue’er, when I asked my eldest brother about Cousin Fan’s condition just now, he also told me something… …”
About His Highness the Fifth Prince? Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Han Qixia.
Han Qixia continued: “Uncle Huang thinks that cousin Fan will fall off the altar of sacrifice to heaven, and the eldest prince is behind the scenes! Before they appeared, the eldest prince had been imprisoned and ordered the Jinyi Guards to investigate.”
For Han Qixia, the fifth prince and the eldest prince are all her cousins, and they are all related by blood. Although there is no family relationship in the Tian family, she knows that in order to win the legitimate heir, several princes may embark on a life-or-death battle. Road, but when this moment came, she still felt a bit bitter.
Childhood, the beauty of the past… are ultimately insignificant in the face of power and desire!
The storm concerning the supreme position is coming soon!
And they are in the remote southern Xinjiang, can they survive this? !
Han Qixia felt as if a mountain was weighing on her heart, and she could hardly breathe. She couldn’t help but glance at the southern sky, secretly praying that Fu Yunhe would go well in Dengli City…
“Don’t worry, sister Fei.” Nangong Yue saw her thoughts, held her hand, and said confidently, “Ayi and Ahe, they will be fine, and they will be able to triumph soon. Come back!”
Han Qixia nodded vigorously, extremely convinced.
By the time Nangong Yue returned to Bixiaotang, it was almost Shenshi.
As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, Que’er first said something about laying out his clothes and handing in greetings, and then excitedly reported: “Your Majesty, there is a flying pigeon delivering a message.”
Nangong Yue’s eyes lit up, her face shone with brilliance, and she smiled broadly, “Bring it to me quickly.”
Taking the silk paper handed over by Que’er, Nangong Yue leaned on the pillow of the beauty’s couch and couldn’t wait to unfold it.
The letter was indeed sent by Xiao Yi.
For more than two years, Xiao Yi has been away from home frequently, but no matter where he is, a letter will arrive every three to five days. Only this time, because she was deep in the enemy’s territory, she had not received a letter from him for a long time, and she could not write to him.
The handwriting on the letter is the one Nangong Yue is most familiar with.
Xiao Yi first reported that he was safe, then mentioned what he had seen along the way, and said that the scenery in Nanliang Capital was very beautiful. When spring comes next year and the flowers bloom, he will take Nangong Yue there for a spring outing…
The smile on Nangong Yue’s lips grew stronger and stronger.
Xiao Yi would never lie to her. Think about it, the war will be over soon… and it will be completely over!
Nangong Yue read the letter several times and carefully received it in a small box.
As soon as she closed the box, Huamei raised the curtain and entered the room. She knelt down and said, “Prince Concubine, the eldest lady is coming this way.” After a pause, she added, “I also brought a food. box.”
Food box… Nangong Yue recalled something, smiled, stood up and said: “Welcome the eldest girl to the East Room.”
After Xiao Fei met Nangong Yue, she personally carried the food box to her, “Sister-in-law, I just made plum blossom cakes and brought them to you. Also, this is the plum blossom sugar sauce I made. It can be used to make snacks or to brew sweet tea.”
Her tone was light, but she couldn’t hide the dazzling light in her eyes, just like a child showing off her work.
Nangong Yue couldn’t help laughing in her heart, and immediately ordered Huamei to make tea, and used the plum blossom cakes with Xiao Fei.
Xiao Fei has always been diligent in her work. Although she used to disdain cooking skills, when she really starts to learn, she will be more serious than anyone else. This plum blossom cake can be made quickly enough to catch up with the dim sum shops outside, no matter what Whether it’s the puff pastry on the outside or the sweet and delicious plum blossom sugar jam inside, it’s both impeccable and appetizing.
Nangong Yue finished a piece of cake in one breath, sipped hot tea and said: “Sister Fei, your plum blossom cake is really appetizing. Why not give a plate to my grandfather and your second brother…”
When he heard Xiao Luan, Xiao Fei, who was holding a teacup in her hand, had a strange expression.
Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows in question, Xiao Fei raised her lips slightly, and said meaningfully: “There is no need for the second brother’s place. I just went to the second brother’s place, and someone sent him a flower cake a long time ago. He is from the Zhou Mansion.”
Of course it was Zhou Roujia who sent it to the Zhou Mansion. Nangong Yue also raised the corner of her mouth. It seemed that the straw eagle Xiao Luan gave him was a good start. Zhou Roujia returned the gift to him. After going back and forth, the two of them naturally became familiar with each other.
In any case, this marriage will be a good start…
“Sister Fei,” Nangong Yue said as she stood up, “then let’s deliver cakes to grandpa together.”
Xiao Fei was about to respond when she thought of something again and said: “Sister-in-law, I want to go to the small garden to cut some plum blossoms first and put them in the house for my grandfather. The wintersweet is blooming so well now, but it’s cold outside. “My grandfather is not in good health and cannot enjoy the wind, so he cannot go to the garden to enjoy the plum blossoms, so I thought it would be good to enjoy them in the house.”
Xiao Fei wanted the old lady to fulfill her filial piety, so of course Nangong Yue would not stop him. She was even more happy to see the success and agreed with a smile: “Sister Fei, then I will wait for you in Tingyuge.”
So, after leaving the yard, Xiao Fei took Tao Yao towards the garden, while Nangong Yue went straight to Tingyu Pavilion, thinking to herself: Grandfather’s Soothing Soup has also been drunk for a few days. I’ll give him a safe pulse later and see if I need to adjust…
While thinking, Tingyu Pavilion appeared in front, and Nangong Yue was introduced to Dongci Room by the little maid from Tingyu Pavilion.
I never thought that Mr. Fang would have a visitor today—it was Manager Zhao.
Now that Manager Zhao is here, it must be Mrs. Fang who wants to discuss the Fang family’s business with him. Nangong Yue was about to avoid it when she heard Mrs. Fang greeting him: “Ah Yue, you came just in time, I was planning to call him. You.”
Supervisor Zhao stood aside and looked at Nangong Yue without any trace. He didn’t have much contact with the imperial concubine. He only met a few times when he was with Yu Cheng, but it was enough. The imperial concubine alone made the old man more energetic and healthy day by day. Words were enough to convince him.
“I have met the Crown Princess.” Manager Zhao bowed respectfully, with proper etiquette. This bow not only showed respect, but also expressed gratitude.
Nangong Yue said with a smile: “No courtesy.”
After Nangong Yue sat down on the armchair nearby, Mrs. Fang said again: “Old Zhao, please tell me and Ah Yue.”
That day, after hearing what Nangong Yue said about the Sigelai Mountain Mine, Mr. Fang ordered Manager Zhao to investigate.
Manager Zhao Da has been in charge of the Fang family’s property for decades and knows the Fang family’s mines well. After receiving the order, he immediately went to check the account books over the years and hurriedly came to report.
“Old Madam, Crown Princess,” Manager Zhao replied with a serious face, “The mine in Sigelai Mountain was originally discovered in the summer nineteen years ago. After the report is reported, Old Madam, you will order Manager Wu to arrange it. I went for a trip. More than 100 long-term workers were hired at that time, and Deputy Manager Yuan, who was under Manager Wu, was fully responsible for the mining. About four months later, Deputy Manager Yuan came to report to Xiao Xiao that it was an iron mine. But the veins are very poor and can be classified as Class C.”
The Fang family has many mineral veins. Until now, only second-grade ore veins need to be reported to Mr. Fang for personal disposal.
However, after four months of mining, even the salt and iron mines reported errors. If there was nothing strange in it, no one would believe it.
“Where is Deputy Manager Yuan now?” Old Mrs. Fang asked in a deep voice.
Steward Zhao composed himself, with a hint of bitterness in his tone, and said: “Old man, Deputy Steward Yuan has been gone for a long time. Counting the days, it was probably more than a year after returning from Sigelai Mountain that one night , Deputy Manager Yuan was drunk and accidentally fell into the lake and drowned.”
Drown? !
Nangong Yue was slightly surprised, glanced at Old Mrs. Fang, and after getting his permission, asked: “Director Zhao, do you dare to ask Deputy Manager Yuan’s family?”
“As far as I know, Deputy Manager Yuan only has an only son. His only son is very smart and can read and recite poems at the age of three. Deputy Manager Yuan asked the old man for grace and canceled his only son’s slave status.” Speaking of this, Manager Zhao seemed to have thought of something and said, “I remember that just before Manager Zhao passed away, he sent his only son to the royal capital, saying that he would find an academy for him.”
According to Dayu regulations, slaves were not allowed to take part in the imperial examinations. Deputy Manager Yuan obviously had high expectations for his only son, so he had the audacity to ask for grace from Mrs. Fang. Could it be…Nangong Yue thought about it and said, “Grandpa, could it be that someone asked Manager Yuan to conceal the matter of the salt mine on the condition that he was sent to the academy as a guarantee for the only son of the Yuan family?”
Mr. Fang nodded and agreed with her guess, “I’m afraid that’s true.” As he said that, he looked at Manager Wu, “Old Zhao, have you brought the account book?”
“Brought it.”
Manager Zhao took out several account books from the baggage he carried with him and presented them: “Old Master, Crown Princess, these are the account books of the mine in Sigelai Mountain over the years. The annual output of the mine is less than two hundred stones. .” With such a small output, this mine has been operating for more than ten years.
“Have you ever visited it in the past few years?” Mr. Fang asked, and then explained to Nangong Yue, “As a rule, the chief executive responsible for the Fang family’s property needs to personally inspect it every five years.”
Speaking of this, Manager Zhao felt a little ashamed: “Old Master, after you fell ill, the Fourth Master said that the Sigelai Mountain Mine was too poor and told me not to pay attention to it and not to inspect it.” What he said Mr. Fang Si is Mr. Fang’s former heir, Fang Chengling.
First, he bribed Deputy Manager Yuan and reported wrong information, and then Fang Chengling came forward to prevent the inspection every five years. In addition, the account books were handed over every year, so that the salt mines in Sigelai Mountain were completely destroyed. Hidden for nineteen years.
Deputy Manager Yuan died, and Fang Chengling also became a living dead.
But the clues in front of us clearly show that this matter is closely related to Fang Chengling, and even the third room of the Fang family! But, to what extent were they involved…
Nangong Yue thought for a moment and asked, “Grandpa, can I take these account books back and look at them?”
Mr. Fang naturally agreed, and Manager Zhao handed the account book to Baihui.
At this moment, the maid came in and said: “Old Master, the Crown Princess, the eldest lady is here.”
Seeing this, Manager Zhao stood up and resigned.
Xiao Fei came holding a bunch of wintersweet. After bowing to Mrs. Fang, she said with a smile: “Grandpa, do you think these wintersweets are blooming well? I have asked Tao Yao to go back to Yuebiju to get the celadon vase. The wintersweets still need to be paired with celadon bottles. I will tell you later Come and help you put up all the flowers. Let’s enjoy the plum blossoms and play chess at the same time…”
Looking at Xiao Fei’s eyes shining brightly and with great interest, Mr. Fang laughed, stroked his beard and agreed.
The house was filled with the fragrance of plum blossoms and the crisp laughter of the girls, and the original solemnity was swept away…
