Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 71
Zhu Xiuyuan slowly told the story.

Although Dong Shuzhen was suffering from illness, she listened with great interest, and even became more energetic and excited the more she listened, and almost forgot that she was still sick!

In addition, there are two small audiences——Qiu Wen and Xia Wu.

They brought small stools, sat upright, and pricked up their ears...

It was raining lightly outside, and they were nestling in the room listening to the story. No matter how you looked at this picture, it was very warm.

It would be even more perfect if Dong Shuzhen wasn't sick.

It's just a great way to kill time.

……

It is said that the most famous doctor in the entire Jiangzhou City has been invited by Xia Wu and has diagnosed and treated Dong Shuzhen.

After the doctor "looked, heard and asked," he just smiled and said: "This disease is easy to hear!"

He also left a piece of prescription, collected the consultation fee, and walked away with a wave of his sleeves.

Zhu Xiuyuan's mood suddenly improved, as if the dark clouds had been cleared to see the blue sky, and the whole world seemed to be bright.

He even told stories with more vigor.

"Uncle, Miss's medicine should be ready soon."

Xia Wu took advantage of Zhu Xiuyuan's pause and quickly "pressed the pause button."This little clever guy was afraid that she might miss the plot of the story while she was taking the medicine.

"Oh, then go get it quickly. I want to feed the lady the medicine myself." Zhu Xiuyuan said with a smile.

Xia Wu got the order and went to get the medicine with Qiu Wen.

Dong Shuzhen looked at Zhu Xiuyuan pitifully with a bitter face, because she was very resistant to taking medicine.

Zhu Xiuyuan brought a plate with a kind of candy in it, and said with a smile: "Madam, you must drink this medicine. You can eat a piece of candy after drinking it."

……

Zhu Xiuyuan was at home with his beloved wife. Although he was worried about his wife's condition, he was still in a good mood. To a certain extent, it could be regarded as a kind of "relaxation"!
However, under the same "gloomy sky", life is not easy for some people.

The people Dong Cheng sent out, the scribes who secretly investigated the unjust cases that had occurred under the "household registration derogation", had already been dispatched.

They used a cover-up to hide their true purpose, so so far, they have not alerted the enemy, and everything is going on in an orderly manner in secret.

Although Jiangzhou Governor Shi Hua Chaoshi and Jiangzhou Sima Wanqian also noticed the strange movements of these people, they could not figure out what they were doing for a while.

At the same time, spies from the Poyang Palace were also keeping an eye on them.

In order to avoid alerting the enemy, the spies did not dare to go too deep, so King Poyang did not know what their purpose was.

The people Dong Cheng sent out inadvertently stirred up the situation in Jiangzhou.

But overall, all parties are still in a wait-and-see mode and are relatively calm.

If Hua Chaoshi and Wan Qian had known the truth and that the people sent by Dong Cheng were actually investigating Hu Cao, they would have jumped into action long ago.

……

Two days later.

When Dong Cheng found Fangtang, the governor, and handed over the evidence that Sihu joined the military and "forced good people to become humble, causing the number of household registrations in Jiangzhou to decrease year by year."

Hua Chaoshi, Wan Qian and others finally understood what Dong Cheng's people were doing a few days ago.

But it's too late!

The proof is like a mountain!

As Fang Tang read through these irrefutable evidences, his head couldn't help but feel a dull pain.

On the bright side, he didn't dare to call a deer a horse, so he had to issue an order to arrest the head of the state government and lead people out to lock up Sihu to join the military... This Sihu joined the military, and he has not survived this "cloudy day" !
……

Not long after he took office, Zhu Xiuyuan, Sicang's military officer, already had a new "colleague"——

The newly appointed Sihu joined the military.

He was also appointed by his father-in-law, Dong Cheng.

Naturally, there was a lot of overt and covert fighting, and the final result was that Dong Cheng won and took the power of Hu Cao in his hands!

However, Zhu Xiuyuan stayed at home for the past two days to accompany his sick wife, so he did not know about this.

Moreover, the originally clear sky in Zhu Xiuyuan's heart fell into a situation of dark clouds again——

Dong Shuzhen's condition has worsened again!
The fever persists!

They all started talking nonsense!
……

"The best doctor in Jiangzhou is all bullshit! After drinking so much medicine, his condition is getting worse and worse!"

In the small living room, Zhu Xiuyuan walked up and down cursing, very anxious.

Zhu Xiuyuan was really not calm anymore.

He was originally worried that the medical conditions in ancient times were simply too crude. Not to mention other things, just a small cold and fever, if not treated well, would be fatal!
And this doctor...

"Quack doctors mistaken people!"

Zhu Xiuyuan's heart was in a mess. Now he had almost completely lost confidence in doctors and ancient medical skills.

But there was nothing he could do. Although he was a time traveler, he couldn't cure diseases at all!
The more he thought about it, the more irritated he became, and his personality became more and more split. Zhu Xiuyuan looked at the tea cup on the small table and resisted the urge to smash it violently several times!

In the corner of the small living room, Xia Wu and Qiu Wen drooped their heads, not daring to say a word.

Especially Xia Wu, the so-called "most famous doctor in Jiangzhou" was hired by her. Now that the doctor doesn't work, she feels like she has committed a big sin.

My uncle has always been a very easy-going person, but now...

Xia Wu and Qiu Wen really felt the fear of the uncle and the condition of the young lady...

All kinds of anxious emotions were intertwined, and the two little maids were actually quite haggard!
"Xiuyuan, don't be anxious. Getting angry and anxious won't solve the problem. Sit down first, drink some tea, and calm down, and then we will discuss it in the long term."

Dong Shuyu spoke slowly and handed over a teacup.

As Dong Shuzhen's condition worsened, Dong Shuyu no longer went to the tea house to take charge, but stayed here with Zhu Xiuyuan and others.

Zhu Xiuyuan sat down as he was told, took the teacup, and took a sip.

"Shuyu is right, there is no use in getting angry. We need to calm down and think about it in the long term!" Zhu Xiuyuan took a deep breath.

"Shu Yu, Qiu Wen, and Xia Wu, do you have any good ideas? You can't drink this medicine anymore. It has no effect at all and will only aggravate the condition."

Zhu Xiuyuan scanned the crowd.

"How about inviting a few more doctors to consult together? One doctor may miss something, but if there are multiple doctors, they should be able to check and fill in the gaps." Dong Shuyu said after thinking for a while.

Zhu Xiuyuan nodded, but did not speak.

"Master, there may be a way..." Xia Wu hesitated after speaking halfway.

"If you have any ideas, just tell me quickly, time waits for no one!"

"Uncle, I have heard that there is a famous doctor in the Poyang Prince's Mansion - Doctor Zhang!"

"Mr. Zhang has great medical skills and has always been respected by King Poyang... Why don't we go to Prince Poyang's Mansion to ask Dr. Zhang to help with diagnosis and treatment?"
