National color medical concubine
Chapter 101
Chapter 101
Xie Qiao withdrew his hand, she could cure the poison.
This poison is not common, only when the elder princess was poisoned.She was pregnant at that time, so the eldest princess was not in danger of her life, and the poison was absorbed by Qin Mo and Qin Yu.
Concubine Shu was poisoned again. The person who did it secretly was the same person who poisoned her back then?
She is not sure.
This time, their destination is Xibo Mansion...or King Yan.
If it is in King Yan, it will be a matter of the battle for succession.As for the beneficial person, who else is there besides the prince?
Xie Qiao was thinking about the person who wanted to murder the eldest princess, but now he is taking refuge under the crown prince?
Mrs. Xibo saw Xie Qiao frowned in thought, with a solemn expression, and her heart sank: "Can it be cured?"
Ji Yu's face was pale, with tears in her eyes, she stared at Xie Qiao nervously, fearing that she would shake her head.
Xie Qiao nodded and said, "Yes."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Xie Qiao continued: "It will take time."
Madam Sieber asked, "How long will it take?"
"It will take a month to completely detoxify."
Mrs. Xibo's face was tense, and she wanted to ask if there was a way to heal it quickly, but the old lady Xibo stopped her by pulling her sleeve.
Xie Qiao seemed to know what she asked, and said with a smile: "After these few days, the empress will be fine, she can go back to the palace, and there will be no abnormalities. You just need to get the needles and take the medicine on time."
Everyone's heart fell.
Mrs. Xibo clasped her hands together, recited a few words of Amitabha, and calmly picked up the cold medicine on the table and drank it.
Mrs. Xibo hurriedly supported the fallen old lady, and ordered her mother-in-law to help her to put it in the next room.
When Xi Bochang came back from the palace, as expected, Imperial Physician Lin came with him.
Doctor Lin helped the pulse, he was indeed seriously ill.
Just about to go back to the palace to report to the emperor, Xie Qiao called him. "Doctor Lin, please stay."
Imperial Physician Lin looked back at Xie Qiao: "What's the matter, Miss Rong?"
Xie Qiao asked: "Doctor Lin has been in the Imperial Hospital for decades, do you know Ji Zhong?"
Ji Zhong retired 25 years ago, and Imperial Physician Lin has been in the Imperial Hospital for 30 years, so Xie Qiao asked him.
Imperial Physician Lin was taken aback, as if he didn't expect Xie Qiao to ask about Ji Zhong, stroked his beard and said, "Yes, I have been supported by Elder Ji."
"I remember correctly. Ji Zhong was the deputy envoy of the Taiyuan Hospital. He was about 40 years old when he became an official. He had a bright future, but he suddenly retired and returned home... What happened back then?" Xie Qiao suddenly mentioned Ji Zhong, but something happened. Too coincidental, after the eldest princess was poisoned, Ji Zhong became an official.Ordinary doctors can't cure the poison at all, Qin Yu recruited famous doctors from all over the world to detoxify Qin Yu, but there is still no improvement.But Qin Yu's illness suddenly recovered, which made her doubt Ji Yunzhu.
The first time she detoxified Qin Yu, she was obviously poisoned, but then she suddenly recovered.
At that time, Ji Yunzhu was also in the capital.
These two things were so coincidental that she had to associate them together.
Imperial Physician Lin sighed: "Mr. Ji only has one son, and it is difficult for a son to marry a wife to conceive. There is a blind medicine that is not available in the capital. He needs to go back to his ancestral home, and he needs to take care of it for a year or two. He is very clear about his daughter-in-law's pathology, and it is related to the heirs. He was worried about handing it over to others, so he retired and returned to his hometown."
"Why don't you take a concubine?" Xie Qiao was simply unbelievable, his daughter-in-law was difficult to conceive, Ji Zhong put a bright future ahead of him, and went back to his hometown to heal and recuperate himself.
Imperial Physician Lin said embarrassingly: "Ji Lao said that taking concubines is the root of family chaos and it is not advisable."
Xie Qiao still felt far-fetched.
"Miss Rong asked Mr. Ji, what's the matter?"
"When the eldest princess was poisoned, who attended the Tai Hospital?" Xie Qiao continued to ask.
Imperial Physician Lin never connected Ji Zhong with the case of Princess Elder’s poisoning, and was very surprised when she heard her question: “All the qualified people in the imperial hospital were dispatched, and it happened that the emperor was seriously ill, and Ji Lao stayed in the palace to wait for orders. The emperor His condition improved, and his daughter-in-law became very ill, and immediately retired."
Therefore, Ji Zhong never treated the eldest princess.
Xie Qiao's eyes dimmed, he put away his thoughts, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Doctor Lin, for clarifying the confusion."
Although Imperial Physician Lin didn't know why Xie Qiao suddenly asked Ji Zhong, he was suspicious, but he didn't ask again.
After Xie Qiao resigned, he gave Concubine Shu an injection to release the poisonous blood, and fed her the medicine Mingxiu decocted: "Your Majesty wakes up, she won't be able to eat anything, so prepare some sugar water for her to drink."
Mrs. Xibo wrote it down, and said gratefully: "This time there is Miss Lao Rong."
Xi Bochang's face darkened when he heard the words: "What is Miss Rong? She is the head of Shun'an County."
Mrs. Siber's face turned red.
"It's just a title." Xie Qiao resolved the embarrassment.
Mrs. Xibo was old and couldn't bear the great joy, so she fell ill due to the collision.The guests heard the news and had already dispersed.
Xie Qiao bid farewell to Mrs. Xibo and came out, but Ji Yu disappeared.
At the screen wall at the entrance of the mansion, Xie Qiao saw Ji Yu and Zheng Yixiu standing there from a distance.Zheng Yixiu's face was extremely haggard, it must be because a dog entered the general's mansion, somehow ran into the young lady's yard and bit out a medicine bag, the mansion doctor said after looking at it that smelling it for a long time would cause infertility.When Zhengchou didn't know who it was, the dog suddenly bit Bi He who was beside Qiao Shi. This interrogation revealed that Qiao Shi did it because she didn't think much of Shen's identity.In the future, she can use her infertility to divorce his wife!
Joe was grounded.
Mrs. Shen fell ill with anger, and now she was making peace, and the General's Mansion refused to do so. Mrs. Qiao was forced to apologize to Mrs.
Zheng Yixiu was given a headache by his mother's crying, and the elder brother's room was also very noisy. Now he is hiding outside and dare not go back to the house, because he is afraid that the Shen family will force him to make peace once he goes back.
The house is a mess, and he is not much better.He was also very helpless to withdraw from Ji Yu, but once he withdrew, his heart seemed to be hollowed out.
Mrs. Xibo celebrated her birthday, and his mother didn't allow him to come, but he was afraid that Xibo's mansion would take the opportunity to show Ji Yu a visit, so he came regardless of the obstruction.The moment he saw Ji Yu, Zheng Yixiu felt that the fatigue of the past few days had disappeared.
He wanted to abandon everything in the General's Mansion and agreed to join the Xibo Mansion.But now that the general's mansion is in chaos, he can't get out.
"Yu'er, wait for me." Zheng Yixiu calmed down, he was reluctant to part with Ji Yu.
Ji Yu lowered her head and didn't look at Zheng Yixiu: "I can't wait any longer." Concubine Shu had an accident, her grandmother fell ill, her age is here.Although Xie Qiao said that Concubine Shu could be cured, her grandmother's illness was cured, so she had to celebrate her marriage.
Now that she has withdrawn from the General's Mansion, his father has arranged for her to be a cousin in her grandfather's house.After Concubine Shu returns to the palace, she has to marry to 'Chong Xi'.
Her marriage was chaotic and urgent.
Everything was planned when Concubine Shu fell down. Her uncle agreed at the time and has already rushed back to make preparations.
Zheng Yixiu's complexion changed: "Yu'er..."
Ji Yu avoided the hand he extended, and said with tears in her eyes, "Don't come to me, I will get married in ten days and a half."
Zheng Yixiu only felt that there was a thunderbolt, how long did it take for him to retire?The Xibo Mansion couldn't wait to marry her off!
"Yu'er, don't marry, don't marry. When the farce in the General's Mansion is over, I'll marry you!" Zheng Yixiu grabbed Ji Yu's hand and said eagerly, "It's okay to marry."
A teardrop fell to the ground, Ji Yu shook her head, and pushed Zheng Yixiu's hand away: "It's too late, too late!"
She gave him a chance and didn't wait for him.If he turns back before today, they still have a possibility.But, it's too late now.
She can no longer add chaos to the house.
Ji Yu ran away without looking back.
Xie Qiao looked at Ji Yu who passed by, and his gaze fell on Zheng Yixiu, who looked at the direction Ji Yu left with a lonely expression.Xie Qiao walked over and said slowly, "Your heart is about the General's Mansion, and Ji Yu is also worried about Xibo's Mansion. Mrs. Xibo is seriously ill, and Ji Yu is very happy to marry. Her cousin is destined to be her ancestral cousin." After a pause, He said again: "A verbal agreement."
Ji Yu rejected Zheng Yixiu, perhaps because he was afraid that if the other side agreed, the other side would cancel his cousin's marriage.In the end, Zheng Yixiu repented after listening to his mother's words, so she would have no face to explain to her relatives.
After all, Zheng Yixiu abandoned her.
Zheng Yixiu suddenly understood the hint in Xie Qiao's words, and now it is still a verbal agreement, he can ask for marriage before exchanging Geng Tie. "Thank you, Miss Rong, for reminding me."
Xie Qiao nodded, and brought Ming Xiu and Bai Zhi back to the mansion.
The carriage was driving slowly on the street, Xie Qiao ordered the carriage to turn around and go to Tongque Street, she wanted to see how the medical hall was decorated.
Suddenly, the carriage stopped, and the sound of horseshoes 'da da da' came from outside, as if they were circling the carriage.
Bai Zhi lifted the curtain, facing Jiang Pei who was looking inside.
"Master Jiang." Bai Zhi turned to Xie Qiao and said.
Xie Qiao nodded.
Bai Zhi opened the curtain and stepped aside, Jiang Pei looked at Xie Qiao through the car window.Her hair was tied back with blue hair, revealing delicate eyebrows and an overly fair face.Sitting gracefully on the big welcoming pillow, the plain white gauze skirt was spread out casually, and the white orchids embroidered with silver thread bloomed like a fresh one, making her whole body extraordinarily quiet and elegant.
Amazement flashed across Jiang Pei's eyes, as if every time he saw her was different.
"Where is Miss Rong going?" Jiang Pei lost his expression and looked at Xie Qiao blissfully.
"Go and see how the medical hall is decorated." Xie Qiao hadn't seen Jiang Pei for a long time, and said with a smile: "The ground has been broken at the other end of the Hantan Temple, and medicinal materials suitable for this solar term have been planted. Leave two-thirds of the open space for waiting It will be used again in the next solar term. It is not good to leave it so empty, I wonder if Mr. Jiang has any suggestions?"
"I haven't thought about it yet, I'll make an appointment to discuss it when I have an idea." Jiang Pei went back to Beicheng, who would have thought that in such a short period of time, she would actually marry Qin Mou.
"Alright." Xie Qiao was about to bid farewell to Jiang Pei, when he heard his suggestion: "Is your medical clinic a new location? Or is the small medical clinic in Qingshi Lane renovated?"
"I will change the restaurant on Tongque Street into a medical clinic." Xie Qiao said embarrassingly: "I am not good at running restaurants. It just so happens that the medical clinic in Qingshi Lane is too narrow. I thought about the good location and spaciousness there, so I moved my mind."
"It's good for your development." Jiang Pei's words were just a compliment. Xie Qiao opened a medical clinic in a corner, and patients would come to him in an endless stream. "The location is too spacious. You can choose a few calligraphy and paintings to hang on the wall." After a pause, Jiang Pei couldn't bear to look at the tired look on her face, and suggested: "My calligraphy is difficult, if you don't mind, I will inscribe two Calligraphy and painting framed for you."
Xie Qiao knew that he was inviting her to Jiang's mansion, and it was not good to refuse, and his proposal was in her favor.Proposed a compromise: "Let's go to the bookstore opposite the ink museum building. I want to pick some books."
"Alright."
The curtain fell, and Bai Zhi muttered: "Miss, you are already engaged, so you have to be wary of men and women."
Xie Qiao smiled and said, "He and I are business friends."
Bai Zhixin knew that Xie Qiao could not be persuaded, so she knelt down beside her and said nothing more.
Ming Xiu looked at Jiang Pei Yushu Linfeng's back through the gap, said with a slap in the face: "This capital is full of outstanding people, if you take it out, it's either handsome or beautiful."
Xie Qiao's eyes were cold, and the corners of his eyes were raised casually looking at the bustling imperial capital.The corner of the mouth was slightly hooked: "It's not bad for us to come out of the Mingxiu valley."
Mingxiu's face was flushed, she covered her face and said: "Miss, you will make fun of slaves."
Xie Qiao chuckled, "I'm telling the truth."
Ming Xiu turned her face away and looked out of the carriage. The cold wind blew away the blush on her face. In an instant, she saw Ye Zhou and the woman she met in the restaurant last time, and her face turned ugly.
Xie Qiao also noticed, frowned, and looked at Mingxiu, she was obviously thinking about Ye Zhou.Ye Zhou seemed to have feelings for Mingxiu, but he wasn't sure if it was the relationship between a man and a woman or between siblings.
The carriage slowly stopped in front of the bookstore, Xie Qiao got off the carriage, and saw Jiang Pei throwing the reins to the waiter. "Is this bookstore yours?"
"I like inscriptions when I have nothing to do. I can't pile them up at home. I open a bookstore to sell calligraphy and paintings." Jiang Pei made a gesture of invitation.
Xie Qiao entered first, and asked the shopkeeper, "May I have Mr. Jiang's name?"
"You are really unforgiving." Jiang Pei ordered the shopkeeper to choose a few pictures suitable for hanging in the medical hall.
"I just want to see and see." Xie Qiao flipped through the words that the shopkeeper took out, but was not satisfied.
Jiang Pei told Rao: "My sister likes to read story books, and opened a bookstore." Seeing that she put it down in a lack of interest, she picked up one of the four big words "Great Physician Sincerely", and said with a smile: "Not satisfied? What do you want? What kind of calligraphy and painting do you want?"
Xie Qiao wanted to write about the methods of health preservation and the prevention of some diseases.
Immediately speak out your own thoughts: "In this way, the occurrence of diseases can be appropriately reduced, and you can also know how to avoid some diseases that should be paid attention to."
Jiang Pei praised: "Not bad."
Xie Qiao was worried, she planned to refine some special medicines and sell them, so naturally she didn't have time to write these matters.Picking out characters, wanting to choose a character I like, ask someone to write it.
"I'll write an inscription for you, but I don't know how to write it." Jiang Pei's mind is best to be read by Xie Qiao while he writes.
But just think about it.
Xie Qiao has this spare time, he might as well write quickly by himself.
Unexpectedly, Xie Qiao actually responded: "I will read it when I make the pills, and you will write it on the side." There is no delay.
"Okay." Jiang Pei came down, pushed back the recent trip to Jiangnan, and took the time to write an inscription for Xie Qiao.
Xie Qiao looked around, picked out a story book, flipped through it briefly, it was good for passing the time, and immediately picked a few books to put on the horse.
Jiang Pei chuckled lightly: "Your daughter's family likes to read these scripts?"
"It's okay." Xie Qiao picked some raw-edged paper, paused, and picked up the plum-blossom jade plate beside him.A layer of powder wax is added to the paper surface, and lacquered gold and lacquered silver are painted with ice plum patterns, which are extremely delicate and exude a faint fragrance of cold plums.
"Like it?" Jiang Pei picked out Xue Tao's paper, and added mica powder to the paper, revealing bright and dazzling particles on the paper.
Xie Qiao nodded: "It can be used to write letters."
Jiang Pei's heart moved slightly, and he signaled the shopkeeper to send a copy of Xue Taojian back to Jiang's residence.
"It's late, let's have dinner together?" Jiang Pei invited.
Xie Qiao declined: "I've been busy for half a day at Xibo Mansion's birthday banquet today, and I'm a little tired."
Jiang Pei didn't force her, but obeyed her will.He said casually, "I'm afraid to send you back home."
Xie Qiao stood still beside the carriage, looked at Jiang Pei slightly sideways, his green shirt was always clean and dust-free, but today it was dusty, he must be riding back to Beijing on horseback: "No, you are also tired after traveling all the way. , let’s go back home and rest earlier.”
Jiang Pei watched Xie Qiao's carriage leave.
Bai Zhi quietly lifted the curtain of the car, seeing that Jiang Pei hadn't left, she looked towards this side from a distance: "Miss, I feel that something is wrong with Mr. Jiang."
"What's wrong with Mr. Jiang? Is he harboring ill intentions towards our lady?" Ban Xia also leaned over to take a look, "Oh, it's like when my mother went to the market to sell embroidery and my father was at the door."
Xie Qiao knocked her on the head: "You're talking nonsense."
Jiang Pei was indeed a little enthusiastic, but she couldn't detect the slightest affection between men and women, so she didn't shy away from him.
With her eyelashes half down slightly, the twilight glow came in through the window, sprinkled on her body like spring plum blossoms and snow, and the glow reflected in the Chengtang.Bai Zhi stared blankly, thinking that Jiang Pei must be trying to hit the young lady!
Seeing that Xie Qiao was vigilant, she still reminded her: "Miss, you and the county king have already given you a marriage. He went to the Xibo Mansion today. Have you met? Fortunately, he didn't see you with Young Master Jiang, otherwise there would be another misunderstanding. Come on. If it's normal, don't bother what the county king thinks."
Xie Qiao knew it well, but Bai Zhi's words warmed her heart. This girl was afraid that Qin Suo would misunderstand her and Jiang Pei, and life would be difficult after they got married.
-
In the Chonghua Building, Xie Qiao took off his veil and hung it on the screen. "Prepare water, I'll take a bath."
Ban Xia responded and went to the kitchen to fetch water.
Walking into the inner room, Xie Qiao saw the person sitting on the embroidered stool, and he didn't even move his brows.His eyes fell on a thin piece of red paper on the table.With a quick glance, there was a date written on it.With a heartbeat, I already knew it was the wedding date.
December nineteenth, the days before.
Qin Mo had been waiting for Xie Qiao to speak. She glanced at it, obviously knowing it in her heart, but there was no fluctuation at all.
"I see." Xie Qiao drank a glass of water and said lightly.
"You have nothing to say?" Qin Mo looked up at Xie Qiao with a cold expression.
"What?" Xie Qiao raised his eyebrows.
That's nothing to say.
Qin Mou's eyes dimmed, and the hand holding the cup was a little tighter, and the next moment, he slowly let go, and stopped looking at her: "You have nothing to say, but I have something to say."
"You said."
"Concubine Shu has appointed Su Suxin for King Yan." Qin Mo changed her posture and sat closer to her: "Wei Yun appears to be a neutral faction, but in fact he is a prince's faction. The prime minister is a neutral faction. Why did he give up on his idea later?"
Xie Qiao said calmly, "When he begged me to marry me for Su Li." At that time, she thought that she would secretly take Su Li back to the mansion for treatment. Marrying her, she was afraid of getting dirty, so she put the plan on hold.Unexpectedly, by chance and coincidence, she went to Hantan Temple and was caught by King Yan, so she started directly from King Yan.
And the person who guided Qin Yu today was arranged by her. If it is really done for the prince, wouldn't it push the prime minister into his camp?
King Yan's fortune is good, if the prince didn't have dirty thoughts, he would have to work hard to marry Su Suxin.
"Death to Su Li?" Qin Mo's anger subsided a little because of her words.
"You want me to treat you?" Xie Qiao asked back, he left inexplicably full of anger at that time, he thought it was going to be cold for a few days, but he didn't know that he would be engaged.
Qin Mo pursed her thin lips slightly, and did not answer her rhetorical question, but said in a low voice, "Concubine Shu is poisoned, King Yan is now entering the palace to present the Tao inkstone to the emperor. Although it is not a wise move, it is the best way to resolve Concubine Shu's physical illness. suspicion."
Xie Qiao sneered: "He will find an opportunity, if Concubine Shu does not fall ill, he will also present Tao Yan to the emperor." It's just that this opportunity can dispel the emperor's suspicion.
At this time, no one would think of taking credit, but trying to seek medical treatment for Concubine Shu.
I'm afraid King Yan will be disappointed.
"The emperor knows that he has the real thing in his hand, but he only rewards it with words. Even if he finds the crown prince to confront him, the crown prince's words are enough to confuse the fake with the inkstone. If the son is deceived by others, the emperor will not punish him. He will just reprimand him." Xie Qiaofang Putting down the teacup in his hand, pinching his sore shoulder blades with his backhand, he leaned against the bedpost with a tired face.
Qin Mo smiled lowly and said: "It is indeed as you said, King Yan only received a few words of praise, the crown prince hurried into the palace to explain, the emperor beat him a few words, mentioned that he did not marry a concubine, and wanted to choose for him The Crown Princess." Qin Mo made a fool of himself: "Which noble lady do you think it is?"
Xie Qiao shook his head: "It must be from a noble family."
Qin Mo said appreciatively, "The second daughter of the Marquis of Huaiyin."
Marquis of Huaiyin?
Xie Qiao looked at Qin Mo in surprise, the emperor's action beat Yan Wang too hard!
Even though the Marquis of Huaiyin has been silent, the background is still there.Once the ambition is revived, even ten kings of Yan will be invincible!
wrong!
The emperor is naturally very clear about the details of the Marquis of Huaiyin, once he chooses Chu Mingzhu, the daughter of the Marquis of Huaiyin, it will be equivalent to the crown prince securing the position of heir.
If there is no one to facilitate, the emperor will definitely not choose the Marquis of Huaiyin.
"You made it happen?" Xie Qiao's face turned serious, he didn't know what Qin Mo's plan was!
"Wrong, it's not me." Qin Mo denied, the light in his eyes was complex.
Xie Qiao nodded, unable to guess who pushed the Marquis of Huaiyin out.Suddenly, a light flashed in Xie Qiao's eyes, and his face was clear.
Qin Mo knew that she had guessed it.
Xie Qiao was still a little uncertain in his heart, when the Marquis of Huaiyin chose to hide from the world after the collapse of the Zhen Guogong Mansion.Now, it is the time to seize the heir apparent, and one should know what will happen to a dead dog, so why get involved in it again?
Chu Mingyan didn't want to marry Lan Yang because he didn't want to be associated with the royal family.
Now, they take the initiative to marry their daughter to the prince.
Xie Qiao couldn't figure out their motives.
"The temptation of power, which ordinary person can resist?" The corner of Qin Mo's mouth showed a sneer, even he was in love with power.If you have no power, you will be chopped up like fish.
Xie Qiao chuckled, that was indeed the case, I am afraid that the Marquis of Huaiyin was afraid that he had opposed the Emperor Ming at the beginning and would be liquidated like the government of the town, so he retreated bravely.
If Chu Mingyan married Lan Yang, perhaps Chu Mingzhu would not be able to become the princess.
It's just a court matter and has nothing to do with her.
"Concubine Shu's poison is the same as yours, do you know?" Xie Qiao suppressed his smile and brought up this serious matter.
Qin Mo gave a faint 'hmm': "Your master told me before."
"Ji Zhong?" Xie Qiao couldn't wait to verify.
Qin Mo nodded.
Xie Qiao leaned back, sorting out the mess in his heart.
"Did Ji Zhong really die suddenly?" Xie Qiao still had one point in her heart, as long as she revealed it, she would be able to confirm why Ji Yunzhu was hostile to her.
Qin Mo said coldly: "Ji Yunzhu was born with a disability, Ji Zhong and Ji Lin were helpless, so they asked your master to heal him in the Valley of the Divine Doctor. Your master was also famous in the capital when he was young, and he also met my mother. Ji Zhong's medical skills are superb, and Zeng Discussed with your master, and later became a close friend. He asked to come, and your master naturally agreed, but when he worked out a cure and healed Ji Yunzhu, he found out that he poisoned the eldest princess back then. Yunzhu cures leg ailments."
Xie Qiao murmured: "So, he apologized with death?"
Qin Mo nodded: "But I don't know why Ji Lin died again. Your master didn't intend to kill him, but he was shocked by his actions. Ji Yunzhu refused his treatment. Your master was injured by him. Back in the capital, after he forced me to poison him, he left the capital and passed away not long after."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Xie Qiao had figured it out in his mind. He was afraid that Ji Yunzhu would blame his master for the death of his grandfather and father.And the master didn't die directly by his hands, so he passed on his hatred to her!
Because, she is the direct disciple of the master!
The father's debt is paid by the son, and the master's hatred is also taken over by her.
Xie Qiao felt a little wronged.
"I thought everything would return to ashes and ashes to ashes after your master died, so I didn't tell you." Qin Mo didn't know that Ji Yunzhu's mind was so dark. According to his conclusion, should Ji Zhong's hatred be recorded in Ji Yunzhu's account? on the head?
Xie Qiao smiled wryly, thinking back to what she said at the gate of the general's mansion, Ji Yunzhu's complexion changed drastically, it turned out that he had stepped on his painful feet.
The master studied hard, but instead of getting a good word, he ended up with a grudge.Turning out the manuscript, looking at half of the pages left, he sighed: "Ji Lin and Ji Zhong died on the same day?"
"En." Qin Mo also felt Ji Yunzhu's thoughts clearly in his heart. After all, the death of the eldest princess had nothing to do with the poison his grandfather administered, so he thought that Ji Zhong should not pay for it with his life.
Xie Qiao's heart sank, she had nothing to say about Ji Zhong's death on the master's head, Ji Linjuan would not be killed by the master.
I'm afraid that someone secretly opposed the master and deliberately killed Ji Lin and framed the master.
"Who is Ji Zhong instigated by?" Xie Qiao suspected that it was the current emperor, after all, the eldest princess was not tolerated by him.
Qin Mo remained silent.
The atmosphere in the room was suddenly dull.
Xie Qiao didn't ask anymore, but he knew that it must be the current emperor.
Lying on the bed, she thought about her master's interpersonal relationship, and her mind went blank.As Qin Mo said, the master was well-known in the capital back then, and his temper must have offended many people.
And how did she know about the previous enemy?
Qin Mo sat quietly for a while, then got up and left.
Xie Qiao asked suddenly, "Do you know who killed Ji Lin?"
Qin Mo paused, and said without turning her head, "I'm investigating."
It's an old matter, Ji Zhong is dead, and it has nothing to do with the later events, so he doesn't need to dig deep.
But after Ji Yunzhu entered Beijing, he was hostile to Xie Qiao. At first he also thought it was a business dispute, but later Ji Yunzhu realized that something was wrong with several ruthless actions, so he ordered someone to investigate.
It is not easy to find out what happened a few years ago.
Xie Qiao looked at his leaving back and smiled, still angry.
Xie Qiao sniffed the plum-blossom jade paper with her eyes on the side. She had good handwriting, but it was a pity that her painting skills were not good.Otherwise, her paper making with Shen's incense would be considered a masterpiece.
"Miss, do you want to write a letter to the county king?" Bai Zhi looked at Xie Qiao holding a piece of paper in his hand, with a smile on his face, and neatly prepared his pen and ink.
Xie Qiao threw the paper away: "Don't write!"
Looking at the back of Xie Qiao going to the clean room, Bai Zhi stuck out her tongue: "The king of the county was angry with you and ran away, and even set the wedding date to look for you. Obviously he bowed his head. Why don't you say a soft word? Let the county Wang left angry?"
Xie Qiao didn't know what soft words to say, she didn't feel Qin Mo's veins, and she couldn't figure out why he was annoyed, obviously she was talking well just now.
"You think I'm wrong?"
Bai Zhi was stunned for a moment, she couldn't tell, but the county king was angry, it must be that the young lady did something wrong.
"What good did Qin Mo promise you? My heart is all on his side. You can't tell me I was wrong, and I don't know where I was wrong. Why should I apologize?" Rising with anger, she has always bowed her head to Qin Mou, before it was forced by the situation.Now as long as she is not wrong, why should she bow her head to others?
Just because, he will be her husband?
Xie Qiao declined to comment.
Bai Zhi stood in the inner room blankly, she was also afraid that Xie Qiao and Qin Mo would not get along, so she wanted Xie Qiao to take a step back.
How could he step on Xie Qiao's painful foot!
-
The next day.
Xie Qiao took a carriage to Xibo Mansion.
Concubine Shu woke up for a while at night, as Xie Qiao said, she had no appetite at all, drank a few sips of sugar water, without saying a few words, she fell asleep again.
Xie Qiao ordered Mingxiu to prepare the medicinal bath, and ordered the mother-in-law to carry Concubine Shu into the bathtub, and then give her an injection.
A quarter of an hour later, he signaled Mingxiu to change a bucket of water and put Concubine Shu in it.The blood that flowed out from the silver needle was no longer so black, but turned red.Only then did people carry Concubine Shu out and put on clothes: "The amount of poisoning is small, and the detoxification is timely. After soaking for a few days, there will be no serious problems."
Qin Yu is seriously ill, so it took a longer time.
Xi Bochang said gratefully: "It's lucky to have you, otherwise the Xibo Mansion might not be safe."
"Uncle, you are being polite." Xie Qiao knew that he was being polite, but at that point, Xibo Changding must have other ways to resolve the crisis.
"The emperor only has a grace period of three days, I don't know..." Xi Bochang didn't say what he said later, but Xie Qiao understood his meaning: "You can enter the palace, but you still have to soak in the medicinal bath."
Xi Bochang wondered: "Concubine Shu enters the palace, I'm afraid I can't summon you immediately, otherwise the emperor will become suspicious."
"I'll bring the medicine to Concubine Shu into the palace. You can ask Imperial Physician Lin to make it up." Xie Qiao knew that since Nanyin and his party, Imperial Physician Lin's temper had changed, and he was afraid that Qin Mo would kill him. He didn't settle the score after Qiuhou, thinking that she said good things for him and was grateful to her. He would be happy to entrust this small matter, but he owed him a favor: "After Concubine Shu entered the palace, uncle invited Imperial Physician Lin to come to the mansion to give the old man When the time comes, Concubine Shu will call Imperial Physician Lin to inquire about the old lady's condition to deceive others."
Xi Bochang bowed and said, "That's the only way!"
"Second brother, second brother, the one named Zheng came to the house to ask for marriage again?" Suddenly, Ji Heng walked over with wind. "Didn't I say that if anyone surnamed Zheng dares to come, call him..." Seeing Xie Qiao when he approached, his tone changed, and the anger on his face turned into a smile: "Miss Rong is here, why are you standing here? , sit inside."
With a headache, Xi Bochang grabbed Ji Heng's hand that was about to pull Xie Qiao's sleeve: "Miss Rong treats my mother." The king of the county has a marriage contract, if you continue to talk about it like this, others will criticize you if they see it. If the king of the county sees it, I'm afraid you will lose your hand!"
Ji Heng suddenly said aggrieved: "How can you marry Qin Mou? He has a straight face all day long, like a stone man, how can I know the cold and hot?" Then he said angrily: "Forget it, forget it, Gong I can't elope with you even if you give me a marriage. You are about the same age as Yu'er, how about being your godfather?" After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand to grab Xie Qiao again.
Xie Qiao quickly avoided, almost choking on his words.
When Xi Bochang saw that Ji Heng not only had a headache, but his eyes also hurt, and he started to move his hands and feet.
"Even if you are her biological father, you can't be so reckless, others will have to think too much." Xi Bochang scolded angrily.
Seeing this, Xie Qiao hurriedly bid farewell to Xi Bochang.Sitting in the carriage, I suddenly remembered Xi Bochang's words, and realized that this place is not modern, but very feudal ancient times.Although Yu Qinglan is her senior brother, in this era, even the intimate behavior of siblings at this age would cause gossip.Presumably, Qin Mou saw her fight with Yu Qinglan yesterday, and he felt uncomfortable.
Maybe, he was angry about this, right?
(End of this chapter)
Xie Qiao withdrew his hand, she could cure the poison.
This poison is not common, only when the elder princess was poisoned.She was pregnant at that time, so the eldest princess was not in danger of her life, and the poison was absorbed by Qin Mo and Qin Yu.
Concubine Shu was poisoned again. The person who did it secretly was the same person who poisoned her back then?
She is not sure.
This time, their destination is Xibo Mansion...or King Yan.
If it is in King Yan, it will be a matter of the battle for succession.As for the beneficial person, who else is there besides the prince?
Xie Qiao was thinking about the person who wanted to murder the eldest princess, but now he is taking refuge under the crown prince?
Mrs. Xibo saw Xie Qiao frowned in thought, with a solemn expression, and her heart sank: "Can it be cured?"
Ji Yu's face was pale, with tears in her eyes, she stared at Xie Qiao nervously, fearing that she would shake her head.
Xie Qiao nodded and said, "Yes."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Xie Qiao continued: "It will take time."
Madam Sieber asked, "How long will it take?"
"It will take a month to completely detoxify."
Mrs. Xibo's face was tense, and she wanted to ask if there was a way to heal it quickly, but the old lady Xibo stopped her by pulling her sleeve.
Xie Qiao seemed to know what she asked, and said with a smile: "After these few days, the empress will be fine, she can go back to the palace, and there will be no abnormalities. You just need to get the needles and take the medicine on time."
Everyone's heart fell.
Mrs. Xibo clasped her hands together, recited a few words of Amitabha, and calmly picked up the cold medicine on the table and drank it.
Mrs. Xibo hurriedly supported the fallen old lady, and ordered her mother-in-law to help her to put it in the next room.
When Xi Bochang came back from the palace, as expected, Imperial Physician Lin came with him.
Doctor Lin helped the pulse, he was indeed seriously ill.
Just about to go back to the palace to report to the emperor, Xie Qiao called him. "Doctor Lin, please stay."
Imperial Physician Lin looked back at Xie Qiao: "What's the matter, Miss Rong?"
Xie Qiao asked: "Doctor Lin has been in the Imperial Hospital for decades, do you know Ji Zhong?"
Ji Zhong retired 25 years ago, and Imperial Physician Lin has been in the Imperial Hospital for 30 years, so Xie Qiao asked him.
Imperial Physician Lin was taken aback, as if he didn't expect Xie Qiao to ask about Ji Zhong, stroked his beard and said, "Yes, I have been supported by Elder Ji."
"I remember correctly. Ji Zhong was the deputy envoy of the Taiyuan Hospital. He was about 40 years old when he became an official. He had a bright future, but he suddenly retired and returned home... What happened back then?" Xie Qiao suddenly mentioned Ji Zhong, but something happened. Too coincidental, after the eldest princess was poisoned, Ji Zhong became an official.Ordinary doctors can't cure the poison at all, Qin Yu recruited famous doctors from all over the world to detoxify Qin Yu, but there is still no improvement.But Qin Yu's illness suddenly recovered, which made her doubt Ji Yunzhu.
The first time she detoxified Qin Yu, she was obviously poisoned, but then she suddenly recovered.
At that time, Ji Yunzhu was also in the capital.
These two things were so coincidental that she had to associate them together.
Imperial Physician Lin sighed: "Mr. Ji only has one son, and it is difficult for a son to marry a wife to conceive. There is a blind medicine that is not available in the capital. He needs to go back to his ancestral home, and he needs to take care of it for a year or two. He is very clear about his daughter-in-law's pathology, and it is related to the heirs. He was worried about handing it over to others, so he retired and returned to his hometown."
"Why don't you take a concubine?" Xie Qiao was simply unbelievable, his daughter-in-law was difficult to conceive, Ji Zhong put a bright future ahead of him, and went back to his hometown to heal and recuperate himself.
Imperial Physician Lin said embarrassingly: "Ji Lao said that taking concubines is the root of family chaos and it is not advisable."
Xie Qiao still felt far-fetched.
"Miss Rong asked Mr. Ji, what's the matter?"
"When the eldest princess was poisoned, who attended the Tai Hospital?" Xie Qiao continued to ask.
Imperial Physician Lin never connected Ji Zhong with the case of Princess Elder’s poisoning, and was very surprised when she heard her question: “All the qualified people in the imperial hospital were dispatched, and it happened that the emperor was seriously ill, and Ji Lao stayed in the palace to wait for orders. The emperor His condition improved, and his daughter-in-law became very ill, and immediately retired."
Therefore, Ji Zhong never treated the eldest princess.
Xie Qiao's eyes dimmed, he put away his thoughts, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Doctor Lin, for clarifying the confusion."
Although Imperial Physician Lin didn't know why Xie Qiao suddenly asked Ji Zhong, he was suspicious, but he didn't ask again.
After Xie Qiao resigned, he gave Concubine Shu an injection to release the poisonous blood, and fed her the medicine Mingxiu decocted: "Your Majesty wakes up, she won't be able to eat anything, so prepare some sugar water for her to drink."
Mrs. Xibo wrote it down, and said gratefully: "This time there is Miss Lao Rong."
Xi Bochang's face darkened when he heard the words: "What is Miss Rong? She is the head of Shun'an County."
Mrs. Siber's face turned red.
"It's just a title." Xie Qiao resolved the embarrassment.
Mrs. Xibo was old and couldn't bear the great joy, so she fell ill due to the collision.The guests heard the news and had already dispersed.
Xie Qiao bid farewell to Mrs. Xibo and came out, but Ji Yu disappeared.
At the screen wall at the entrance of the mansion, Xie Qiao saw Ji Yu and Zheng Yixiu standing there from a distance.Zheng Yixiu's face was extremely haggard, it must be because a dog entered the general's mansion, somehow ran into the young lady's yard and bit out a medicine bag, the mansion doctor said after looking at it that smelling it for a long time would cause infertility.When Zhengchou didn't know who it was, the dog suddenly bit Bi He who was beside Qiao Shi. This interrogation revealed that Qiao Shi did it because she didn't think much of Shen's identity.In the future, she can use her infertility to divorce his wife!
Joe was grounded.
Mrs. Shen fell ill with anger, and now she was making peace, and the General's Mansion refused to do so. Mrs. Qiao was forced to apologize to Mrs.
Zheng Yixiu was given a headache by his mother's crying, and the elder brother's room was also very noisy. Now he is hiding outside and dare not go back to the house, because he is afraid that the Shen family will force him to make peace once he goes back.
The house is a mess, and he is not much better.He was also very helpless to withdraw from Ji Yu, but once he withdrew, his heart seemed to be hollowed out.
Mrs. Xibo celebrated her birthday, and his mother didn't allow him to come, but he was afraid that Xibo's mansion would take the opportunity to show Ji Yu a visit, so he came regardless of the obstruction.The moment he saw Ji Yu, Zheng Yixiu felt that the fatigue of the past few days had disappeared.
He wanted to abandon everything in the General's Mansion and agreed to join the Xibo Mansion.But now that the general's mansion is in chaos, he can't get out.
"Yu'er, wait for me." Zheng Yixiu calmed down, he was reluctant to part with Ji Yu.
Ji Yu lowered her head and didn't look at Zheng Yixiu: "I can't wait any longer." Concubine Shu had an accident, her grandmother fell ill, her age is here.Although Xie Qiao said that Concubine Shu could be cured, her grandmother's illness was cured, so she had to celebrate her marriage.
Now that she has withdrawn from the General's Mansion, his father has arranged for her to be a cousin in her grandfather's house.After Concubine Shu returns to the palace, she has to marry to 'Chong Xi'.
Her marriage was chaotic and urgent.
Everything was planned when Concubine Shu fell down. Her uncle agreed at the time and has already rushed back to make preparations.
Zheng Yixiu's complexion changed: "Yu'er..."
Ji Yu avoided the hand he extended, and said with tears in her eyes, "Don't come to me, I will get married in ten days and a half."
Zheng Yixiu only felt that there was a thunderbolt, how long did it take for him to retire?The Xibo Mansion couldn't wait to marry her off!
"Yu'er, don't marry, don't marry. When the farce in the General's Mansion is over, I'll marry you!" Zheng Yixiu grabbed Ji Yu's hand and said eagerly, "It's okay to marry."
A teardrop fell to the ground, Ji Yu shook her head, and pushed Zheng Yixiu's hand away: "It's too late, too late!"
She gave him a chance and didn't wait for him.If he turns back before today, they still have a possibility.But, it's too late now.
She can no longer add chaos to the house.
Ji Yu ran away without looking back.
Xie Qiao looked at Ji Yu who passed by, and his gaze fell on Zheng Yixiu, who looked at the direction Ji Yu left with a lonely expression.Xie Qiao walked over and said slowly, "Your heart is about the General's Mansion, and Ji Yu is also worried about Xibo's Mansion. Mrs. Xibo is seriously ill, and Ji Yu is very happy to marry. Her cousin is destined to be her ancestral cousin." After a pause, He said again: "A verbal agreement."
Ji Yu rejected Zheng Yixiu, perhaps because he was afraid that if the other side agreed, the other side would cancel his cousin's marriage.In the end, Zheng Yixiu repented after listening to his mother's words, so she would have no face to explain to her relatives.
After all, Zheng Yixiu abandoned her.
Zheng Yixiu suddenly understood the hint in Xie Qiao's words, and now it is still a verbal agreement, he can ask for marriage before exchanging Geng Tie. "Thank you, Miss Rong, for reminding me."
Xie Qiao nodded, and brought Ming Xiu and Bai Zhi back to the mansion.
The carriage was driving slowly on the street, Xie Qiao ordered the carriage to turn around and go to Tongque Street, she wanted to see how the medical hall was decorated.
Suddenly, the carriage stopped, and the sound of horseshoes 'da da da' came from outside, as if they were circling the carriage.
Bai Zhi lifted the curtain, facing Jiang Pei who was looking inside.
"Master Jiang." Bai Zhi turned to Xie Qiao and said.
Xie Qiao nodded.
Bai Zhi opened the curtain and stepped aside, Jiang Pei looked at Xie Qiao through the car window.Her hair was tied back with blue hair, revealing delicate eyebrows and an overly fair face.Sitting gracefully on the big welcoming pillow, the plain white gauze skirt was spread out casually, and the white orchids embroidered with silver thread bloomed like a fresh one, making her whole body extraordinarily quiet and elegant.
Amazement flashed across Jiang Pei's eyes, as if every time he saw her was different.
"Where is Miss Rong going?" Jiang Pei lost his expression and looked at Xie Qiao blissfully.
"Go and see how the medical hall is decorated." Xie Qiao hadn't seen Jiang Pei for a long time, and said with a smile: "The ground has been broken at the other end of the Hantan Temple, and medicinal materials suitable for this solar term have been planted. Leave two-thirds of the open space for waiting It will be used again in the next solar term. It is not good to leave it so empty, I wonder if Mr. Jiang has any suggestions?"
"I haven't thought about it yet, I'll make an appointment to discuss it when I have an idea." Jiang Pei went back to Beicheng, who would have thought that in such a short period of time, she would actually marry Qin Mou.
"Alright." Xie Qiao was about to bid farewell to Jiang Pei, when he heard his suggestion: "Is your medical clinic a new location? Or is the small medical clinic in Qingshi Lane renovated?"
"I will change the restaurant on Tongque Street into a medical clinic." Xie Qiao said embarrassingly: "I am not good at running restaurants. It just so happens that the medical clinic in Qingshi Lane is too narrow. I thought about the good location and spaciousness there, so I moved my mind."
"It's good for your development." Jiang Pei's words were just a compliment. Xie Qiao opened a medical clinic in a corner, and patients would come to him in an endless stream. "The location is too spacious. You can choose a few calligraphy and paintings to hang on the wall." After a pause, Jiang Pei couldn't bear to look at the tired look on her face, and suggested: "My calligraphy is difficult, if you don't mind, I will inscribe two Calligraphy and painting framed for you."
Xie Qiao knew that he was inviting her to Jiang's mansion, and it was not good to refuse, and his proposal was in her favor.Proposed a compromise: "Let's go to the bookstore opposite the ink museum building. I want to pick some books."
"Alright."
The curtain fell, and Bai Zhi muttered: "Miss, you are already engaged, so you have to be wary of men and women."
Xie Qiao smiled and said, "He and I are business friends."
Bai Zhixin knew that Xie Qiao could not be persuaded, so she knelt down beside her and said nothing more.
Ming Xiu looked at Jiang Pei Yushu Linfeng's back through the gap, said with a slap in the face: "This capital is full of outstanding people, if you take it out, it's either handsome or beautiful."
Xie Qiao's eyes were cold, and the corners of his eyes were raised casually looking at the bustling imperial capital.The corner of the mouth was slightly hooked: "It's not bad for us to come out of the Mingxiu valley."
Mingxiu's face was flushed, she covered her face and said: "Miss, you will make fun of slaves."
Xie Qiao chuckled, "I'm telling the truth."
Ming Xiu turned her face away and looked out of the carriage. The cold wind blew away the blush on her face. In an instant, she saw Ye Zhou and the woman she met in the restaurant last time, and her face turned ugly.
Xie Qiao also noticed, frowned, and looked at Mingxiu, she was obviously thinking about Ye Zhou.Ye Zhou seemed to have feelings for Mingxiu, but he wasn't sure if it was the relationship between a man and a woman or between siblings.
The carriage slowly stopped in front of the bookstore, Xie Qiao got off the carriage, and saw Jiang Pei throwing the reins to the waiter. "Is this bookstore yours?"
"I like inscriptions when I have nothing to do. I can't pile them up at home. I open a bookstore to sell calligraphy and paintings." Jiang Pei made a gesture of invitation.
Xie Qiao entered first, and asked the shopkeeper, "May I have Mr. Jiang's name?"
"You are really unforgiving." Jiang Pei ordered the shopkeeper to choose a few pictures suitable for hanging in the medical hall.
"I just want to see and see." Xie Qiao flipped through the words that the shopkeeper took out, but was not satisfied.
Jiang Pei told Rao: "My sister likes to read story books, and opened a bookstore." Seeing that she put it down in a lack of interest, she picked up one of the four big words "Great Physician Sincerely", and said with a smile: "Not satisfied? What do you want? What kind of calligraphy and painting do you want?"
Xie Qiao wanted to write about the methods of health preservation and the prevention of some diseases.
Immediately speak out your own thoughts: "In this way, the occurrence of diseases can be appropriately reduced, and you can also know how to avoid some diseases that should be paid attention to."
Jiang Pei praised: "Not bad."
Xie Qiao was worried, she planned to refine some special medicines and sell them, so naturally she didn't have time to write these matters.Picking out characters, wanting to choose a character I like, ask someone to write it.
"I'll write an inscription for you, but I don't know how to write it." Jiang Pei's mind is best to be read by Xie Qiao while he writes.
But just think about it.
Xie Qiao has this spare time, he might as well write quickly by himself.
Unexpectedly, Xie Qiao actually responded: "I will read it when I make the pills, and you will write it on the side." There is no delay.
"Okay." Jiang Pei came down, pushed back the recent trip to Jiangnan, and took the time to write an inscription for Xie Qiao.
Xie Qiao looked around, picked out a story book, flipped through it briefly, it was good for passing the time, and immediately picked a few books to put on the horse.
Jiang Pei chuckled lightly: "Your daughter's family likes to read these scripts?"
"It's okay." Xie Qiao picked some raw-edged paper, paused, and picked up the plum-blossom jade plate beside him.A layer of powder wax is added to the paper surface, and lacquered gold and lacquered silver are painted with ice plum patterns, which are extremely delicate and exude a faint fragrance of cold plums.
"Like it?" Jiang Pei picked out Xue Tao's paper, and added mica powder to the paper, revealing bright and dazzling particles on the paper.
Xie Qiao nodded: "It can be used to write letters."
Jiang Pei's heart moved slightly, and he signaled the shopkeeper to send a copy of Xue Taojian back to Jiang's residence.
"It's late, let's have dinner together?" Jiang Pei invited.
Xie Qiao declined: "I've been busy for half a day at Xibo Mansion's birthday banquet today, and I'm a little tired."
Jiang Pei didn't force her, but obeyed her will.He said casually, "I'm afraid to send you back home."
Xie Qiao stood still beside the carriage, looked at Jiang Pei slightly sideways, his green shirt was always clean and dust-free, but today it was dusty, he must be riding back to Beijing on horseback: "No, you are also tired after traveling all the way. , let’s go back home and rest earlier.”
Jiang Pei watched Xie Qiao's carriage leave.
Bai Zhi quietly lifted the curtain of the car, seeing that Jiang Pei hadn't left, she looked towards this side from a distance: "Miss, I feel that something is wrong with Mr. Jiang."
"What's wrong with Mr. Jiang? Is he harboring ill intentions towards our lady?" Ban Xia also leaned over to take a look, "Oh, it's like when my mother went to the market to sell embroidery and my father was at the door."
Xie Qiao knocked her on the head: "You're talking nonsense."
Jiang Pei was indeed a little enthusiastic, but she couldn't detect the slightest affection between men and women, so she didn't shy away from him.
With her eyelashes half down slightly, the twilight glow came in through the window, sprinkled on her body like spring plum blossoms and snow, and the glow reflected in the Chengtang.Bai Zhi stared blankly, thinking that Jiang Pei must be trying to hit the young lady!
Seeing that Xie Qiao was vigilant, she still reminded her: "Miss, you and the county king have already given you a marriage. He went to the Xibo Mansion today. Have you met? Fortunately, he didn't see you with Young Master Jiang, otherwise there would be another misunderstanding. Come on. If it's normal, don't bother what the county king thinks."
Xie Qiao knew it well, but Bai Zhi's words warmed her heart. This girl was afraid that Qin Suo would misunderstand her and Jiang Pei, and life would be difficult after they got married.
-
In the Chonghua Building, Xie Qiao took off his veil and hung it on the screen. "Prepare water, I'll take a bath."
Ban Xia responded and went to the kitchen to fetch water.
Walking into the inner room, Xie Qiao saw the person sitting on the embroidered stool, and he didn't even move his brows.His eyes fell on a thin piece of red paper on the table.With a quick glance, there was a date written on it.With a heartbeat, I already knew it was the wedding date.
December nineteenth, the days before.
Qin Mo had been waiting for Xie Qiao to speak. She glanced at it, obviously knowing it in her heart, but there was no fluctuation at all.
"I see." Xie Qiao drank a glass of water and said lightly.
"You have nothing to say?" Qin Mo looked up at Xie Qiao with a cold expression.
"What?" Xie Qiao raised his eyebrows.
That's nothing to say.
Qin Mou's eyes dimmed, and the hand holding the cup was a little tighter, and the next moment, he slowly let go, and stopped looking at her: "You have nothing to say, but I have something to say."
"You said."
"Concubine Shu has appointed Su Suxin for King Yan." Qin Mo changed her posture and sat closer to her: "Wei Yun appears to be a neutral faction, but in fact he is a prince's faction. The prime minister is a neutral faction. Why did he give up on his idea later?"
Xie Qiao said calmly, "When he begged me to marry me for Su Li." At that time, she thought that she would secretly take Su Li back to the mansion for treatment. Marrying her, she was afraid of getting dirty, so she put the plan on hold.Unexpectedly, by chance and coincidence, she went to Hantan Temple and was caught by King Yan, so she started directly from King Yan.
And the person who guided Qin Yu today was arranged by her. If it is really done for the prince, wouldn't it push the prime minister into his camp?
King Yan's fortune is good, if the prince didn't have dirty thoughts, he would have to work hard to marry Su Suxin.
"Death to Su Li?" Qin Mo's anger subsided a little because of her words.
"You want me to treat you?" Xie Qiao asked back, he left inexplicably full of anger at that time, he thought it was going to be cold for a few days, but he didn't know that he would be engaged.
Qin Mo pursed her thin lips slightly, and did not answer her rhetorical question, but said in a low voice, "Concubine Shu is poisoned, King Yan is now entering the palace to present the Tao inkstone to the emperor. Although it is not a wise move, it is the best way to resolve Concubine Shu's physical illness. suspicion."
Xie Qiao sneered: "He will find an opportunity, if Concubine Shu does not fall ill, he will also present Tao Yan to the emperor." It's just that this opportunity can dispel the emperor's suspicion.
At this time, no one would think of taking credit, but trying to seek medical treatment for Concubine Shu.
I'm afraid King Yan will be disappointed.
"The emperor knows that he has the real thing in his hand, but he only rewards it with words. Even if he finds the crown prince to confront him, the crown prince's words are enough to confuse the fake with the inkstone. If the son is deceived by others, the emperor will not punish him. He will just reprimand him." Xie Qiaofang Putting down the teacup in his hand, pinching his sore shoulder blades with his backhand, he leaned against the bedpost with a tired face.
Qin Mo smiled lowly and said: "It is indeed as you said, King Yan only received a few words of praise, the crown prince hurried into the palace to explain, the emperor beat him a few words, mentioned that he did not marry a concubine, and wanted to choose for him The Crown Princess." Qin Mo made a fool of himself: "Which noble lady do you think it is?"
Xie Qiao shook his head: "It must be from a noble family."
Qin Mo said appreciatively, "The second daughter of the Marquis of Huaiyin."
Marquis of Huaiyin?
Xie Qiao looked at Qin Mo in surprise, the emperor's action beat Yan Wang too hard!
Even though the Marquis of Huaiyin has been silent, the background is still there.Once the ambition is revived, even ten kings of Yan will be invincible!
wrong!
The emperor is naturally very clear about the details of the Marquis of Huaiyin, once he chooses Chu Mingzhu, the daughter of the Marquis of Huaiyin, it will be equivalent to the crown prince securing the position of heir.
If there is no one to facilitate, the emperor will definitely not choose the Marquis of Huaiyin.
"You made it happen?" Xie Qiao's face turned serious, he didn't know what Qin Mo's plan was!
"Wrong, it's not me." Qin Mo denied, the light in his eyes was complex.
Xie Qiao nodded, unable to guess who pushed the Marquis of Huaiyin out.Suddenly, a light flashed in Xie Qiao's eyes, and his face was clear.
Qin Mo knew that she had guessed it.
Xie Qiao was still a little uncertain in his heart, when the Marquis of Huaiyin chose to hide from the world after the collapse of the Zhen Guogong Mansion.Now, it is the time to seize the heir apparent, and one should know what will happen to a dead dog, so why get involved in it again?
Chu Mingyan didn't want to marry Lan Yang because he didn't want to be associated with the royal family.
Now, they take the initiative to marry their daughter to the prince.
Xie Qiao couldn't figure out their motives.
"The temptation of power, which ordinary person can resist?" The corner of Qin Mo's mouth showed a sneer, even he was in love with power.If you have no power, you will be chopped up like fish.
Xie Qiao chuckled, that was indeed the case, I am afraid that the Marquis of Huaiyin was afraid that he had opposed the Emperor Ming at the beginning and would be liquidated like the government of the town, so he retreated bravely.
If Chu Mingyan married Lan Yang, perhaps Chu Mingzhu would not be able to become the princess.
It's just a court matter and has nothing to do with her.
"Concubine Shu's poison is the same as yours, do you know?" Xie Qiao suppressed his smile and brought up this serious matter.
Qin Mo gave a faint 'hmm': "Your master told me before."
"Ji Zhong?" Xie Qiao couldn't wait to verify.
Qin Mo nodded.
Xie Qiao leaned back, sorting out the mess in his heart.
"Did Ji Zhong really die suddenly?" Xie Qiao still had one point in her heart, as long as she revealed it, she would be able to confirm why Ji Yunzhu was hostile to her.
Qin Mo said coldly: "Ji Yunzhu was born with a disability, Ji Zhong and Ji Lin were helpless, so they asked your master to heal him in the Valley of the Divine Doctor. Your master was also famous in the capital when he was young, and he also met my mother. Ji Zhong's medical skills are superb, and Zeng Discussed with your master, and later became a close friend. He asked to come, and your master naturally agreed, but when he worked out a cure and healed Ji Yunzhu, he found out that he poisoned the eldest princess back then. Yunzhu cures leg ailments."
Xie Qiao murmured: "So, he apologized with death?"
Qin Mo nodded: "But I don't know why Ji Lin died again. Your master didn't intend to kill him, but he was shocked by his actions. Ji Yunzhu refused his treatment. Your master was injured by him. Back in the capital, after he forced me to poison him, he left the capital and passed away not long after."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Xie Qiao had figured it out in his mind. He was afraid that Ji Yunzhu would blame his master for the death of his grandfather and father.And the master didn't die directly by his hands, so he passed on his hatred to her!
Because, she is the direct disciple of the master!
The father's debt is paid by the son, and the master's hatred is also taken over by her.
Xie Qiao felt a little wronged.
"I thought everything would return to ashes and ashes to ashes after your master died, so I didn't tell you." Qin Mo didn't know that Ji Yunzhu's mind was so dark. According to his conclusion, should Ji Zhong's hatred be recorded in Ji Yunzhu's account? on the head?
Xie Qiao smiled wryly, thinking back to what she said at the gate of the general's mansion, Ji Yunzhu's complexion changed drastically, it turned out that he had stepped on his painful feet.
The master studied hard, but instead of getting a good word, he ended up with a grudge.Turning out the manuscript, looking at half of the pages left, he sighed: "Ji Lin and Ji Zhong died on the same day?"
"En." Qin Mo also felt Ji Yunzhu's thoughts clearly in his heart. After all, the death of the eldest princess had nothing to do with the poison his grandfather administered, so he thought that Ji Zhong should not pay for it with his life.
Xie Qiao's heart sank, she had nothing to say about Ji Zhong's death on the master's head, Ji Linjuan would not be killed by the master.
I'm afraid that someone secretly opposed the master and deliberately killed Ji Lin and framed the master.
"Who is Ji Zhong instigated by?" Xie Qiao suspected that it was the current emperor, after all, the eldest princess was not tolerated by him.
Qin Mo remained silent.
The atmosphere in the room was suddenly dull.
Xie Qiao didn't ask anymore, but he knew that it must be the current emperor.
Lying on the bed, she thought about her master's interpersonal relationship, and her mind went blank.As Qin Mo said, the master was well-known in the capital back then, and his temper must have offended many people.
And how did she know about the previous enemy?
Qin Mo sat quietly for a while, then got up and left.
Xie Qiao asked suddenly, "Do you know who killed Ji Lin?"
Qin Mo paused, and said without turning her head, "I'm investigating."
It's an old matter, Ji Zhong is dead, and it has nothing to do with the later events, so he doesn't need to dig deep.
But after Ji Yunzhu entered Beijing, he was hostile to Xie Qiao. At first he also thought it was a business dispute, but later Ji Yunzhu realized that something was wrong with several ruthless actions, so he ordered someone to investigate.
It is not easy to find out what happened a few years ago.
Xie Qiao looked at his leaving back and smiled, still angry.
Xie Qiao sniffed the plum-blossom jade paper with her eyes on the side. She had good handwriting, but it was a pity that her painting skills were not good.Otherwise, her paper making with Shen's incense would be considered a masterpiece.
"Miss, do you want to write a letter to the county king?" Bai Zhi looked at Xie Qiao holding a piece of paper in his hand, with a smile on his face, and neatly prepared his pen and ink.
Xie Qiao threw the paper away: "Don't write!"
Looking at the back of Xie Qiao going to the clean room, Bai Zhi stuck out her tongue: "The king of the county was angry with you and ran away, and even set the wedding date to look for you. Obviously he bowed his head. Why don't you say a soft word? Let the county Wang left angry?"
Xie Qiao didn't know what soft words to say, she didn't feel Qin Mo's veins, and she couldn't figure out why he was annoyed, obviously she was talking well just now.
"You think I'm wrong?"
Bai Zhi was stunned for a moment, she couldn't tell, but the county king was angry, it must be that the young lady did something wrong.
"What good did Qin Mo promise you? My heart is all on his side. You can't tell me I was wrong, and I don't know where I was wrong. Why should I apologize?" Rising with anger, she has always bowed her head to Qin Mou, before it was forced by the situation.Now as long as she is not wrong, why should she bow her head to others?
Just because, he will be her husband?
Xie Qiao declined to comment.
Bai Zhi stood in the inner room blankly, she was also afraid that Xie Qiao and Qin Mo would not get along, so she wanted Xie Qiao to take a step back.
How could he step on Xie Qiao's painful foot!

The next day.
Xie Qiao took a carriage to Xibo Mansion.
Concubine Shu woke up for a while at night, as Xie Qiao said, she had no appetite at all, drank a few sips of sugar water, without saying a few words, she fell asleep again.
Xie Qiao ordered Mingxiu to prepare the medicinal bath, and ordered the mother-in-law to carry Concubine Shu into the bathtub, and then give her an injection.
A quarter of an hour later, he signaled Mingxiu to change a bucket of water and put Concubine Shu in it.The blood that flowed out from the silver needle was no longer so black, but turned red.Only then did people carry Concubine Shu out and put on clothes: "The amount of poisoning is small, and the detoxification is timely. After soaking for a few days, there will be no serious problems."
Qin Yu is seriously ill, so it took a longer time.
Xi Bochang said gratefully: "It's lucky to have you, otherwise the Xibo Mansion might not be safe."
"Uncle, you are being polite." Xie Qiao knew that he was being polite, but at that point, Xibo Changding must have other ways to resolve the crisis.
"The emperor only has a grace period of three days, I don't know..." Xi Bochang didn't say what he said later, but Xie Qiao understood his meaning: "You can enter the palace, but you still have to soak in the medicinal bath."
Xi Bochang wondered: "Concubine Shu enters the palace, I'm afraid I can't summon you immediately, otherwise the emperor will become suspicious."
"I'll bring the medicine to Concubine Shu into the palace. You can ask Imperial Physician Lin to make it up." Xie Qiao knew that since Nanyin and his party, Imperial Physician Lin's temper had changed, and he was afraid that Qin Mo would kill him. He didn't settle the score after Qiuhou, thinking that she said good things for him and was grateful to her. He would be happy to entrust this small matter, but he owed him a favor: "After Concubine Shu entered the palace, uncle invited Imperial Physician Lin to come to the mansion to give the old man When the time comes, Concubine Shu will call Imperial Physician Lin to inquire about the old lady's condition to deceive others."
Xi Bochang bowed and said, "That's the only way!"
"Second brother, second brother, the one named Zheng came to the house to ask for marriage again?" Suddenly, Ji Heng walked over with wind. "Didn't I say that if anyone surnamed Zheng dares to come, call him..." Seeing Xie Qiao when he approached, his tone changed, and the anger on his face turned into a smile: "Miss Rong is here, why are you standing here? , sit inside."
With a headache, Xi Bochang grabbed Ji Heng's hand that was about to pull Xie Qiao's sleeve: "Miss Rong treats my mother." The king of the county has a marriage contract, if you continue to talk about it like this, others will criticize you if they see it. If the king of the county sees it, I'm afraid you will lose your hand!"
Ji Heng suddenly said aggrieved: "How can you marry Qin Mou? He has a straight face all day long, like a stone man, how can I know the cold and hot?" Then he said angrily: "Forget it, forget it, Gong I can't elope with you even if you give me a marriage. You are about the same age as Yu'er, how about being your godfather?" After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand to grab Xie Qiao again.
Xie Qiao quickly avoided, almost choking on his words.
When Xi Bochang saw that Ji Heng not only had a headache, but his eyes also hurt, and he started to move his hands and feet.
"Even if you are her biological father, you can't be so reckless, others will have to think too much." Xi Bochang scolded angrily.
Seeing this, Xie Qiao hurriedly bid farewell to Xi Bochang.Sitting in the carriage, I suddenly remembered Xi Bochang's words, and realized that this place is not modern, but very feudal ancient times.Although Yu Qinglan is her senior brother, in this era, even the intimate behavior of siblings at this age would cause gossip.Presumably, Qin Mou saw her fight with Yu Qinglan yesterday, and he felt uncomfortable.
Maybe, he was angry about this, right?
