I, who disguised myself as a woman, turned out to be a queen! ?

Chapter 1220 Is the Third Miss of the Su Family a Man?

Today, Su Zimu and his companion came to the Su residence to request an audience with Madam Su Liu. The crowd at the Su residence gate was more than just a bunch of people; after all, they were all prominent figures, and there were rules and regulations for visiting each other.

But some people don't care about these things, so they come to visit in person.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Ling family is one of them.

And this is yet another countess from the Marquis of Anshan's household.

Both families had been transferred from other places in the past few months. An Shanbo held a position as a fifth-rank official in the Court of State Ceremonial, where he always lived in constant fear. His wife came from a well-known family of gynecologists, whose medical skills were traditionally passed down only to daughters.

Regarding the matter of the medical school, Su Chang'an had heard some of the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau mention it. It was Zhang Wenjing who approached them, but the old lady's attitude was very firm: she could serve as a teacher at the medical school, but some family prescriptions would not be passed on to outsiders, and men would not be taught.

Su Chang'an knew about Madam Zhang of the Ling family because of her four daughters. The story was that the Ling family had been transferred from Jinling to the capital to serve as officials in the Secretariat and concurrently as Left Advisors, a fifth-rank official position. The combination of these two positions gave them considerable power, making them a relatively powerful and influential family in the capital.

Upon arriving in the capital, Madam Zhang immediately began arranging marriages for her four daughters. The eldest daughter was chosen by the Earl of Suiyuan, but the eldest daughter disliked it and ran away from home. After being caught and brought back, she continued to cause trouble, and the trouble hasn't subsided to this day.

Er Yatou has taken a fancy to Li Changhao, the nephew of Li Chunfang, the Minister of the Court of State Ceremonies.

But this Li Changhao happens to be in love with the fourth daughter of the Ling family.

Su Chang'an, who loved gossip all his life, learned about this and exclaimed, "What a wonderful ancient romance novel!" Then he asked what happened next.

As a result, Aunt Sun told Su Chang'an that the third daughter of the Ling family seemed to admire Qin Shaoyou, who was the son of Qin Yuan, the Minister of Agriculture.

Su Chang'an had also met that kid who used to like Qu Youwei a lot.

But Qin Shaoyou only loved Qu Youwei. This third girl was a feisty character and insisted on going to find Qu Youwei.

That's not all!
Most importantly, it seems that this Lord Ling has an illegitimate son living in his household. Although the son is under Madam Zhang's name, he is idle and arrogant. He is going to participate in the imperial examination this year, and Madam Zhang is having a terrible headache over his marriage.

Because of these events, Su Chang'an remembered the Ling family and was very concerned about their progress, often asking Aunt Sun to help him inquire about things.

It's not that the Empress is being nosy; she's just curious about what happened to this family in the end.

When the servants of the Su family invited Madam Zhang and Countess Yuanshan into the Su residence, the people watching outside were stunned. It had been most of the day and now it was dark, but none of the people who had come to pay their respects to Duke Wenyuan and his wife had gone in. These two had gone in!

Immediately!

Many people turned and went to report to their masters.

Madam Zhang of the Ling family considered herself quite knowledgeable, but when she followed the servant into the Su residence, her eyes couldn't stop looking around. It was one thing that the Su residence was much larger than their own, but in addition, the layout of everything was very pleasing to the eye.

He felt uneasy, wondering if he had been too reckless today. He had come so suddenly, without bringing anything with him, and he rubbed his palms together in his sleeve.

The eldest wife of the Earl of Anshan was surnamed Wei. She carefully held a small package in her arms and left it outside with the servants.

They were equally cautious, after all, although the Earl of Anshan held the title of Earl, he had actually fallen into obscurity long ago. If it weren't for the gynecological medical skills passed down by the old lady, and the fact that the Earl of Anshan had now become a successful official, he would have been defeated long ago and would have been a fallen nobleman.

"Madams, my master and mistress are waiting for you inside." The steward and servants looked at the two of them and gestured for them to enter the courtyard.

After thanking Madam Zhang and Madam Wei, they went inside.

Although it was inconvenient for Su Liu to greet the guests, she still stood at the door, supporting her pregnant belly, and looked at the two of them.

After inviting the two into the room, Su Zimu did not sit down, but stood behind Su Liushi.

Madam Zhang was uneasy, "I..."

But before she could speak, Madam Wei also spoke up, and the two bumped into each other.

It was suddenly awkward.

After smiling, Madam Su said, "This isn't the first time we've met, so there's no need for this. Besides, it's my fault for not being a good host. I just ordered some fresh fruit to be prepared, and it will be served shortly."

Madam Zhang and Madam Wei were somewhat apprehensive.

However, after exchanging a glance, Madam Wei picked up the small bag: "Madam Liu, this is what the old lady asked me to give you. It is called Qingzi Kui. It has a miraculous effect on pregnant women to prevent miscarriage. The old lady said that if you feel very heavy and tired after six months, pick a petal and put it in your mouth for three consecutive days. You will definitely feel much better. It is a miraculous medicine passed down from generation to generation."

As she spoke, Madam Wei opened a box in her small bag, revealing a purple-white flower with blue veins on it; just by looking at it, one could tell it was an extraordinary medicinal herb.

Upon seeing this, Su Zimu hesitated for a moment, because she hadn't heard of it before.

Madam Su quickly replied, "This is absolutely not allowed. How can such a valuable item be given away?"

In the past, Su Liushi would not have wanted it.

But thinking of the one in the palace, Madam Su said, "Although I don't know its value, Madam can discuss the price with the old lady. I can buy it with a large sum of money."

Madam Wei quickly replied, "The old lady instructed that it be delivered."

After speaking, Madam Wei looked at Su Zimu, then at Madam Su Liu: "According to the old lady's wishes, this pregnancy has not been easy for you, and all women know the suffering involved. So this is just a small token of our Earl's family's goodwill. Please come again."

Madam Wei paused for a moment, then said, "Next time...that's it."

Madam Wei hesitated.

Madam Su looked at Madam Wei and smiled, "Madam, I really don't know anything about His Majesty's situation. I'm very worried, but I still haven't received a reply to that memorial."

Lady Wei paused for a moment upon hearing this, then asked, "I heard that it was in that town of Wu that the poisoners injured Her Majesty, and His Majesty was so worried that he developed a chronic illness?"

Su Chang'an was sitting behind the screen. As he listened to these words, he looked down at the wheels under the screen, which had just pressed down on the corner of his clothes.

Upon hearing this, Su Zimu paused for a moment and said, "Madam Wei, you can't say such things carelessly. Moreover, as far as I know, His Majesty did not have any lingering illness at that time. Now, rumors are rampant outside, and we can't believe them."

Madam Wei nodded quickly, then smiled and said, "I was just worried about His Majesty. The old lady at home heard the gossiping in the courtyard and got very worried, so she sent me over to bring you the medicine and also to ask how His Majesty was doing. She also asked me to take your pulse and check how the baby is doing. I'll have to tell the old lady about it when I get back."

Upon hearing this, Lady Su Liu said, "People outside are just repeating what they hear; you can't believe a word of it. Besides, if something really happened to His Majesty, Her Majesty the Empress would definitely be anxious, but she hasn't made any move, has she?"

Madam Zhang, straightforward and outspoken, immediately chimed in, "Madam, you don't know yet! They say Her Majesty the Empress has gathered many palace maids skilled in medicine and female officials from the Six Bureaus at the Palace Clinic, and she's also recruited many people from the Court of Imperial Clan Affairs. With the Court of Imperial Clan Affairs and female officials from the Six Bureaus involved, Her Majesty hasn't even made a move yet, and she's already mobilized so many people! It's quite a commotion!" *Bang!*
But it was only after Madam Zhang finished speaking that...
The screen next to it collapsed with a crash!

Startled, Madam Zhang and Madam Wei hurriedly stood up and stared straight at them.

When Madam Su saw Su Chang'an lying on the screen, her heart skipped a beat. She quickly looked at Su Zimu, and then at Su Chang'an again.

Then they saw that Su Chang'an had put the mask on his face at some point.

This relieved the couple.

Su Zimu reacted quickly and immediately scolded, "Qingning! What are you doing hiding here!"

Lime?

Madam Zhang and Madam Wei were taken aback.

As for Qingning, they remembered that the daughter of Su Ziyu, the second maternal grandfather of the Su family, was named Su Qingning, who was also the third young lady of the Su family.

Su Chang'an was very embarrassed.

The main problem was that he hadn't expected the wheels on the screen to be so sensitive; it slipped as soon as he touched it and then fell over with a thud. When he went to pick it up, the little stool also fell over.

And then that was it.

But thankfully, he was quick and put on the mask in time.

However, right now he heard Su Zimu scolding him.

Su Chang'an stood up, thought for a moment, and said, "I wanted to leave too, but since you have guests here, Uncle and Aunt, I hid."

Seeing that Su Chang'an was cooperating with the act.

Su Zimu glanced at Su Chang'an.

Madam Su Liu quickly looked at Madam Zhang and Madam Wei and said, "I am so sorry, you two. I have spoiled this child since she was a child. She ran here today because she was afraid of her mother, so she ran here to hide."

This is actually true, because Su Qingning has been staying with Su Liushi all day, in order to avoid seeing Su Qinshi.

Madam Zhang and Madam Wei smiled at each other.

Madam Zhang stole a glance at Su Chang'an. Oh my, although she's a bit crazy, her figure is quite outstanding. And yet, that third girl dares to compare herself to her. That brat!

Everyone had heard about the affairs of the third young lady of the Su family; they said she was incredibly mischievous, no less so than that fierce girl from the Zhao family.

Moreover, he's crazy and always does a lot of nonsensical things.

Seeing someone wearing a mask so late at night is truly a testament to the power of seeing.

Madam Su Liu quickly looked at Madam Wei and asked, "Madam, you just said you wanted to take my pulse?"

Madam Wei snapped out of her daze and nodded with a smile: "Yes, the old lady originally wanted to come in person, but she is too old and her legs are uncomfortable, so she asked me to take her pulse and record it so I could tell her. I know that Dr. Zhang usually comes to see you, but we just want to be on the safe side, so please don't take offense, Madam."

Madam Su smiled and said, "Not at all, I should thank you for remembering me, Madam."

As she spoke, Su Liushi picked up her arm and placed it on the table.

Madam Wei, who had learned medicine from the old lady, was truly skilled. While taking Su Liu's pulse, she also observed the area around her lips.

Finally, she said, "The pregnancy is stable, everything is fine."

Su Liu nodded with a smile.

However, Madam Wei looked at Su Chang'an and said, "Why don't you take a look too, Third Miss?"

Madam Wei thought about her husband's instructions, but she also remembered the old lady's instructions.

The former asked her to inquire about His Majesty's condition.

The latter is to talk about getting as close as possible, leaving as much goodwill as possible, and not caring about being shameless, as long as goodwill is left behind.

Although Madam Wei did not understand, she simply followed the old lady's instructions.

Upon hearing this, Su Chang'an, who was standing next to Su Zimu, was taken aback. Taking a pulse?

If you take my pulse, you'll know I'm a man, right?
If this gets out, what will people think?!

Besides, I just filled this container with limes.

Su Chang'an smiled and looked at Madam Wei: "Thank you for your kindness, Madam. I am in good health. It is I who am acting so badly that I am offending you both."

As he spoke, Su Chang'an bowed to Madam Wei and Madam Zhang.

Madam Zhang quickly waved her hand, "How could I dare? The third young lady of the Su family, Su Qingning, is Su Ziyu's daughter, and she's the Minister of Personnel!"
Madam Wei, on the other hand, was much calmer. After all, she was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Earl's mansion and had seen more of the world than Madam Zhang.

just
Madam Wei was taken aback when she saw Su Chang'an's bowing gesture.

As a gynecologist, especially with the old lady in my family who, although not famous throughout the country, is a first-rate gynecologist, after all, the family has a long tradition of gynecology. Even when Dr. Zhang is treating women, he still has to consult his old lady.

When the old woman taught her medical skills, she first taught her to distinguish between the behavior of women and men. Her exact words were, "People are different, and men and women are different, so first observe people, judge their health from their actions, and determine if they are unwell from their every move."

Moreover, the old lady said that their sect's founder could tell whether a woman had a female ailment simply by observing her facial features.

Therefore, for the first seven or eight years of her medical studies, Mrs. Wei followed the old lady and observed women's movements.

But right now.
The actions of this third young lady of the Su family
Was it a man?
Is the third young lady of the Su family a boy?
