MTL - My Beloved Concubine Only Wants to Eat Melons-Chapter 61
Hearing what Yaoxian Ma said, Jiang Yuyi felt the pulse of Ankang county magistrate.
After a while, he said to the couple again, "you don't have to worry, Madam is fine, the poison from before has been cleared, now it's time to take good care of the baby. Remember to be tired in the early stages of pregnancy, and eat cold and hot things carefully. Stay calm and take a good rest."
Seeing Ma Daxi in Yao County, he hurriedly nodded in agreement, then took out another ingot and said, "Thank you, Doctor Jiang, this is just a little bit of my heart."
Unexpectedly, Doctor Jiang shook his hand again and again, and said in a firm tone, "Officials, please take it back. Your previous consultation fee has already been paid, and I didn't prescribe medicine for you two today, but just a few words, don't be so polite."
However, Yaoxian Ma insisted on giving it to him, "If there is no doctor, there will be no child like us. Assuming that I gave it to the child, the doctor will accept it."
As soon as the words came out, Doctor Jiang looked at him strangely, "The officials can't say these words casually. This child belongs to you and has nothing to do with others."
"puff…"
As soon as these words came out, Yan Shu almost laughed out loud.
The Ankang county magistrate also laughed through the veiled hat, "Your husband made a slip of the tongue for a moment, which made the doctor laugh. But this money is indeed a little bit of our heart, if the doctor doesn't accept it, it will really make us feel sorry."
Doctor Jiang said again, "If you two are really sorry, you might as well donate the silver to those poor people."
Seeing his persistence, Ankang County Lord nodded and said, "Okay, then we will donate some silver to the porridge factory in the name of the doctor."
Doctor Jiang nodded, "Thank you Madam."
The couple got up to say goodbye and went out.
After the room was clean, Yu Wenlan came to Dr. Jiang, and before he could speak, he saw the other party asking him directly, "Is the official's **** normal now?"
Yu Wenlan, "..."
This doctor also has a good memory.
Forget it, anyway, Yan Shu knew in her heart that there was no need to pretend to be stupid at this time, so he nodded and said, "After the doctor's expert diagnosis and treatment, everything is now normal, but Zhuo Jing is not pregnant yet, I don't know if there is something wrong with me."
Dr. Jiang nodded, motioning for him to reach out and feel his pulse.
Not long after, he said, "Based on the pulse, the official should have returned to normal. Don't be too impatient about getting pregnant. When the time comes, it will happen naturally. It's just..."
There was a pause in his voice, and people couldn't help but get nervous, Yu Wenlan hurriedly asked, "But what?"
Doctor Jiang coughed, "However, you still have to be a little restrained at night, too much indulgence will also affect Yuanyang."
Yu Wenlan, "..."
Yanshu, "..."
—Who would have thought that the word "indulgence" would one day be used on the emperor, cough.
Yu Wenlan, "???"
What does this mean?
Why can't it be used on him?
I wanted to study this topic with her, but there were outsiders by my side.
Yu Wenlan had no choice but to say hello to Dr. Jiang first, and was ready to get up.
—Looking at the situation just now, this one doesn't charge the consultation fee, so it's better not to bother, and let him grow in the salary later.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a loud roar came from outside the door, "Where are the dogs running away!"
Um?
There are thieves? ? ?
The three people in the room immediately paused, and after a few breaths of shock, they all hurried out of the room at the same time.
When the three of them came to the street outside Jiang's house, they saw Yao Junliang, the county magistrate who had just left, holding the skirt of a thin man with one hand, with an angry look on his face.
No need to ask, the loud shout just now came from the horse of Yao County.
And following this shout, the neighbors around Jiang's house also came out to check, and the surrounding area was full of people for a while.
Seeing this scene, Doctor Jiang hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What's the matter?"
Yaoxian Ma said, "This little thief climbed over the wall and entered the house in broad daylight. If I hadn't noticed it just now, I would almost have told him to run away."
As he spoke, he pointed to a house on the west side of Jiang's house and asked, "Whose house is that? Just now, the thief jumped off the wall of that house. Is the owner there? Go back and have a look, is there anything missing?" .”
Hearing this, a woman in the crowd who was holding a child was startled immediately, and said, "Isn't that my house? Please Mrs. Jiang give me a hug for Ah Sheng, I'll go back and have a look."
After speaking, he stuffed the baby in his arms to Dr. Jiang's wife, He Shi, and hurried home to check.
However, not long after, I saw him running back and saying, "It seems that nothing has been lost in my house, and the money and jewelry are still there."
Everyone had a meal.
But seeing the thin man who was being pulled by the Yao County horse said, "I'm wronged, I just accidentally went the wrong way, I'm not a thief!"
Yaoxian Ma snorted, "Goed the wrong way? Accidentally walked into someone's house? And jumped off the wall? Why don't you tell me quickly, what did you do here?"
Seeing this scene, Yan Shu also felt strange, and hurriedly asked the system, 【Is this person a thief? 】
System, 【It's really not a thief, but it's more hateful than a thief. He was sent by others to frame Dr. Jiang. 】
Frame Doctor Jiang?
Yan Shu was taken aback for a moment, but Yu Wenlan, who had been on the sidelines, said to Yao Xianma, "Why don't you check if he has any stolen goods?"
Of course, the voice has changed, and Yao Xianma has not heard it.
At this time, Yao Xianma's attention was also on the little thief. Hearing this, he said hello, and immediately called his followers to search the little thief.
After a careful search, no property was really found on this person.
However, there is a paper bag.
That's right, it's like the jute paper package that wraps medicine in the pharmacy, and it's square and tied with straw ropes, and it smells like medicine.
It looked like it was indeed a medicine bag.
Seeing this scene, Dr. Jiang was taken aback, and hurried forward to take the paper bag and open it, picked up the things inside, and said to the woman who ran home to check her belongings, "Sister-in-law Huang, isn't this what I just said?" Medicine for Ah Sheng?"
But Mrs. Huang said with a strange expression, "No, the medicine is still on the stove at my house. I'm not going to come out to get some firewood, and I'll boil it for Ah Sheng when I get back."
"No no no,"
Dr. Jiang quickly shook his head and said, "Go and take out the package of medicine from your stove."
Mrs. Huang had no choice but to answer, and went back home in a hurry.
Not long after, he ran out again with a medicine bag, and said to Doctor Jiang, "Here, come, Doctor Jiang, look, isn't this the medicine you just prescribed?"
Dr. Jiang hurriedly took the medicine bag into his hands, and opened it to look at it, but after a while, he frowned and said, "No, the medicine has been dropped!"
What?
Everyone present was stunned, why was the medicine dropped?
Dr. Jiang hurriedly picked out the medicinal materials in the second paper package and said to Mrs. Huang, "Look, this is the plantain seed, this is the white peony root, and this is the Phellodendron cork. He prescribed a prescription to dispel the cold, but these flavors are all things of severe cold, if Ah Sheng drank it, his condition would definitely get worse, and he would even suffer from diarrhea and collapse, the consequences would be serious!"
"what?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was horrified.
Mrs. Huang immediately rushed to the little thief and asked, "I have no grievances with you, why did you do this to us, Ah Sheng?"
Yan Shu already understood that this was a trick to frame Dr. Jiang.
— Dropped the medicine he prescribed, and after the patient drank it, not only would it not relieve the pain, but it would also have more serious consequences, in order to slander Dr. Jiang’s reputation...
Heh, this method is actually exactly the same as when he framed Miracle Doctor Xun back then!
At this time, she didn't need the system to prompt her to guess who was behind the scenes!
Angry in her heart, she was about to speak to the emperor, but before she could open her mouth, the emperor said to Dr. Jiang, "This person's target is probably you. This matter is no small matter. I suggest that the doctor report to the authorities immediately."
As soon as these words came out, Yao County Ma immediately nodded and said, "That's right, this little thief is probably trying to frame you, Doctor, and I happen to be free today, so I will accompany the doctor to Jingzhao Mansion!"
After saying that, he ordered his followers to secure the little thief, went to the carriage again, and confessed to his wife, the County Lord Ankang.
The head of Ankang County expressed his understanding, gave instructions to the coachman, and left first.
Immediately afterwards, Yaoxian Ma also accompanied Dr. Jiang to Jingzhao Mansion, not forgetting to ask someone to grab the thief's skirt along the way.
The onlookers expressed their anger one after another, and they all went home.
Yan Shu and Yu Wenlan also boarded the carriage and returned to the palace.
—Today I originally planned to go shopping in the market and eat some delicious food.
However, in such a situation, Yan Shu couldn't eat anything.
She is full of anger now, and she just wants to expose the face of Zhang Shengkang, the judge of the Taitai Hospital, to the emperor.
Taking advantage of the wheels rolling, she said, "Your Majesty, do you still remember what my concubine told you back then, the scriptures of that government doctor's ungrateful bullying of teachers and ancestors?"
Yu Wenlan hummed, "I remember."
Then he deliberately asked, "That one also has a prototype?"
Yan Shu nodded quickly and said, "That's right, the prototype of that government doctor is actually Zhang Shengkang, the judge of the Supreme Hospital."
Yu Wenlan hurriedly showed some surprise at the right time, frowned and said, "It's him?"
But seeing her nodded, she said again, "That's right, it's him, and Doctor Jiang is the son of the genius doctor who was mad at him to death."
Yu Wenlan showed surprise again, frowned and said, "So that's the case? No wonder Doctor Jiang's medical skills are so good."
Yan Shu nodded again and said, "Zhang Shengkang is very jealous, he is the one who framed Doctor Jiang today."
Yu Wenlan also guessed this point.
— Not to mention that this method is exactly the same as when Zhang Shengkang framed his master back then, just looking at Jiang Yuyi's open-minded and generous person, apart from Zhang Shengkang, there must be no other enemies.
But Yan Shu said again, "However, my concubine thinks that Zhang Shengkang's framing of Jiang Yuyi today may not necessarily be because he knows Jiang Yuyi's true identity, but it is most likely just out of jealousy and wants to drive him out of the imperial hospital."
Yu Wenlan raised her eyebrows, "Why did you say that?"
Yan Shu squinted her eyes and said in a sophisticated tone, "It's very simple. After all, Doctor Jiang has changed his identity now. With Zhang Shengkang's scheming, if he knew this, he would definitely report to the court that Doctor Jiang had falsified his identity. Is it easy to use black hands to harm people?"
"indeed so."
Yu Wenlan nodded, then raised her eyebrows to look at her, "Aifei's thoughts are so meticulous."
Yan Shu smiled modestly, "Don't dare, it's just the basic quality of a melon eater."
Tsk, you know, many of the melons she has eaten over the years have only some simple information, and it is all due to her meticulous reasoning that she finally eats the whole thing, which will be practiced after a long time.
Of course, there will be occasional blunders, for example, two days ago, I realized that I had already been exposed to the emperor's eyes...
However, when the voice fell, she frowned again and said, "The concubine still wanted to send out the script and announce the man's hypocrisy to the public, and now I'm afraid I have to hide the identity of Doctor Jiang. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will cause trouble for him."
But Yu Wenlan said, "Don't worry about the script, let's see how Jingzhaofu investigates the case."
Yan Shu nodded and said, "Yes."
Today, under the watchful eyes of everyone, there are some witnesses and physical evidence, and it was the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion that Yao Xianma personally accompanied Yuyi Jiang to, so the thief must not be able to escape.
Now it depends on when Zhang Shengkang will be confessed.
In this way, when she returned to the palace, Yan Shu focused on waiting for the latest news from the system.
It was already night at that time, and it was not until the next morning that there was any movement from the system—
[The latest news, Zhang Shengkang's apprentice came out to take the blame for him. 】
What?
Yan Shu was taken aback, 【Apprentice? Does Zhang Shengkang have any apprentices? 】
System, [Of course, he was judged by the Supreme Hospital. I don’t know how many people have wanted to curry favor with him over the years, so he took advantage of the opportunity to accept many apprentices. However, unlike other masters who are devoted to teaching skills, he accepts apprentices purely for the purpose of expanding profits. Either ask these people to open a pharmacy for him in the city to make money, or just act as his dog's leg. 】
Yan Shu understood, and asked again, 【Then how did his apprentice take the blame for him? 】
System, [very simple. First of all, the little thief was originally instigated by this apprentice. Yesterday, after the Jingzhao Mansion tortured him severely, the little thief recruited the person who hired him. It happened to open a medical clinic nearby, because Dr. Jiang Yu treated the neighbors, and the treatment was good and cheap. He often met a poor family and did not charge money. As a result, more and more people came to see him. Didn't it affect the business of the hospital? This apprentice had sufficient motives and reasons, and he did it himself, and the Jingzhao Mansion closed the case. 】
Yan Shu, [… also. 】
Tsk, grabbing business is really convincing. After all, except for her and the emperor, no one else knows about the grievances between Jiang Yuyi and Zhang Shengkang.
In addition, that Zhang Shengkang is so good at covering up and looks highly respected, who would think of him?
System, [Also, according to the current law, this matter is not punishable by death. At most, the apprentice will be released after a few years in prison and a few slaps on the board. He still has a wife and children, so he wouldn't cut his fortune just because of this, not to mention that Zhang Shengkang would definitely give him a large sum of money as a pension. 】
Yan Shu sighed, thinking that this old thief Zhang is really scheming.
At this time in Qianming Palace, Yu Wenlan had the same thoughts as Yan Shu after listening to the report from Jingzhao Mansion.
Zhang Shengkang has been running the Tai Hospital for more than 20 years, and his thoughts are so deep. It seems that this one thing can't move him at all.
Moreover, even if Yan Shu made public what happened back then, he might still be able to escape unscathed.
— Not to mention anything else, there are very few people who know about the old events more than 20 years ago, so where can we get the real evidence?
Under such circumstances, he hastily released public opinion, and he can completely slander him.
And I'm afraid the queen mother will protect him.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Fu Hai came in to report, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager asked you to move to Ci'an Palace, and said that she had something to discuss with you."
Yu Wenlan paused.
Such a coincidence?
He groaned, got up and left the palace gate, and went to Ci'an Palace.
When they got there, Yu Wenlan saw that apart from the Queen Mother, there was also Zhang Shengkang in the palace.
At this moment, the man lowered his head with a serious face, as if something big had happened.
He glanced at it, greeted the queen mother first, and sat down on the warm couch.
But the queen mother said, "Doctor Zhang just came to Aijia and said that he wanted to plead guilty to Aijia and His Majesty, so Aijia asked His Majesty to come and listen."
Yu Wenlan let out an oh, and looked at Zhang Shengkang, "What's wrong with Doctor Zhang?"
But seeing Zhang Shengkang immediately knelt down and said, "I have no way to teach disciples. One of my apprentices, because of poor business, framed other doctors in an attempt to ruin people's reputation and cause patients to die. Hearing the news from Jingzhao Mansion this morning, Minister I am deeply ashamed of myself, so I came here to plead guilty to Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager. Although I don’t know about this matter, the culprit is my apprentice after all. I am ashamed of my trust in Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager, and I implore the two of you to forgive me.”
The words are very sincere, as if he really is an honest and selfless doctor.
Hearing this, before Yu Wenlan could speak, the queen mother said, "It sounds like this apprentice is really hateful! As a teacher, you really did not teach him well, and you have a heavy responsibility."
Zhang Shengkang bowed his head and said yes.
Immediately afterwards, the Empress Dowager changed her voice and said, "However, I think you have been serving Ai's family in the palace all day long, and you are also responsible for everything in the Imperial Hospital. Let me forgive you for a while."
Then he looked at Yu Wenlan and said, "What do you think, Your Majesty?"
In such a situation, what else can Yu Wenlan say?
The Empress Dowager wanted to protect her, and this person did a good job.
He said, "My mother is magnanimous, but this matter has caused a lot of trouble in the city. Many people already know the relationship between the two of them as master and apprentice. If they don't pursue responsibility at all, I'm afraid they won't be able to explain it to the outside world. How about it,"
He looked at Zhang Shengkang again, and said, "After all, this matter is related to the safety of patients, and the impact is bad. That person's clinic will be shut down immediately, and he will be punished severely; you will be fined half a year's salary, and the official will be demoted by half a rank. From now on, you must be strict with yourself, You must be more strict in disciplining your subordinates."
Zhang Shengkang hurriedly kowtowed.
The queen mother also nodded beside her and said, "Your Majesty is wise."
~~
After the emperor left Ci'an Palace, Yan Shu also followed the system to finish eating melons in her own palace.
Needless to say, this time, Zhang Shengkang was not able to move, which is naturally unpleasant.
She frowned and said, 【I used to be jealous of the Queen Mother, why are you protecting Zhang Shengkang so much this time? 】
The system, [After all, Zhang Shengkang is the queen mother's internal minister. When the queen mother lost her son, she was extremely depressed and almost fell ill. It was Zhang Shengkang who went all out to save him. Zhang Shengkang's judgment today is entirely due to the queen mother. Pull out with one hand. Since the emperor came to power, the empress dowager has lost a lot of manpower, especially now that Duke Cheng'en's mansion is basically useless, the empress dowager can definitely keep one of them. 】
[What's more, Zhang Shengkang has been in charge of her body all these years, and only Zhang Shengkang can cure her of a headache. 】
Yan Shu anxiously said, 【That was when there was no better manpower in the past, now Doctor Jiang is so good at medicine, even the little girl from the Ni family has been rescued, the queen mother saw it with her own eyes, why can't doctor Jiang serve her Woolen cloth? 】
System, [The Queen Mother can be trusted by anyone? What's more, from the Queen Mother's point of view, this time really has nothing to do with Zhang Shengkang. Zhang Shengkang is a good doctor. As long as he is loyal to her, he will still be useful to her. She will definitely protect him. 】
Yanshu, "..."
Alas, although the truth is understood, it is still annoying.
After thinking about it, she picked up the pen and decided to write a new script.
She didn't believe it anymore, there really were gaps in the world that couldn't be cut.
No matter how much the Empress Dowager trusts her, if she knows that the people around her are wolf-hearted, she will always feel resentful and gradually dislike her.
~~
For several days, the queen mother was also in a heavy heart.
While there was no one in the hall, Nanny Zhuang stepped forward to persuade, "Since Mrs. Mu returned to Mingzhou, you don't talk much, my lady."
The Empress Dowager closed her eyes and sighed, "It's all annoying, so people don't even want to open their mouths."
Nanny Zhuang stepped forward to rub the temples for the Empress Dowager, and said, "The palace seems to be getting more and more deserted, and it seems that there is no good news for the lady Yipin who has been in bed for so long. The branches and leaves are scattered, so I can talk with you. There are many people, and it is always lively."
The Queen Mother sighed again.
What's the use of having too many people?
The root cause of the emperor has not been resolved, so what is the use of ten thousand beauties?
But he himself is still not in a hurry?
After thinking about it for a long time, the queen mother suddenly opened her eyes and told Nanny Zhuang, "Go and do something for Ai's family."
…
~~
As the evening approached, Yan Shu was planning to get up from the table to exercise.
Just put down the pen, but heard the system say, [new news, the queen mother can't wait, and plans to ask Zhang Shengkang to cure the emperor's inability to move. 】
Yanshu, […]
Poor Empress Dowager, she still doesn't know that the emperor is well.
And it was fine, last night just happened to be when she saw off her relatives, so she spent half the night going through the picture album that had been put on hold for a few days.
Of course, at this moment, Xingua is in the moment, not when she is reminiscing about last night, she hurriedly asked the system, 【What is the queen mother going to do? Now the emperor doesn't believe in Zhang Shengkang at all, it's impossible to ask Zhang Shengkang to get a close-up pulse diagnosis. 】
System, [Maybe he can get close this time. 】
Yan Shu, [? ? ? Why? 】
System, [The emperor had diarrhea when he drank goat's milk when he was a child, and just now the queen mother asked someone to add some goat's milk to the dessert and sent it to him. 】
Yan Shu, [? ? ? 】
...The Empress Dowager was really... ruthless in order to ask Zhang Shengkang to diagnose the emperor's pulse!
But how can she stand by and watch?
So he got up quickly and rushed to Qianming Palace.
~~
When Yan Shu arrived at Qianming Palace, she saw a plate of taro cakes on the tea table in the Imperial Study Room, and someone was eating one without realizing it.
And asked her, "Why are you here?"
There was still Fu Hai in the hall, so Yan Shu could only say, "The concubine originally wanted to ask if His Majesty would go to Ganlu Hall for dinner tonight... Where did this snack come from?"
Yu Wenlan said while eating, "The queen mother ordered someone to bring it. I happened to be hungry, so I put a few pieces first."
Then he asked her, "Do you want to try it?"
Damn, how much did you eat?
Yan Shu sweated silently for him, and asked, "Your Majesty... are you okay?"
"OK…"
Yu Wenlan was about to answer her, but she only said two words, and suddenly paused.
Yan Shu accurately captured the change in his expression, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong, Your Majesty?"
As soon as the words fell, Yu Wenlan had put down her snacks and quickly went to the cleaning room, and only hurriedly said, "Wait a minute."
Saying that, he didn't forget to close the door of the clean room.
Seeing this, Fu Hai hurriedly followed up to serve him, but Yan Shu stopped him and said, "Mr. Fu, please avoid me for a moment. I have something to say to Your Majesty."
Fu Hai paused, so he had no choice but to respond first, and retreated.
Yan Shu also came to the door of the clean room and said, "The concubine has something to report."
Yu Wenlan's slightly uncomfortable voice came from inside the door, "Wait a minute..."
Yan Shu said, "It's urgent, it will be too late."
Someone in the door had no choice but to say, "Okay, let's just say so."
...As a king, it was the first time in his life to listen to people report things in the clean room.
Then, Yan Shu said, "The Empress Dowager asked someone to put some goat milk in the taro cake you ate just now..."
"what?"
Yu Wenlan was stunned.
Yan Shu said anxiously, "Didn't you have diarrhea when you drank goat's milk when you were young? The Empress Dowager is planning to take this opportunity to call Zhang Shengkang to come over and treat your illness!"
Yu Wenlan, "..."
Well, he has figured it out.
Put aside all kinds of speechlessness for the time being, and immediately said, "Tell the imperial doctor Jiang!"
Yan Shu should be, and hastened to go out to tell Fu Hai.
Then he raised his foot, but suddenly there was another pause—
Dr. Jiang Yu came to check his pulse, maybe he would recognize that he was unable to cure him at home earlier?
