Qingguan looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to her, so she walked over like a leisurely stroll.
As soon as the two met, Chunni lowered her voice and said, "Miss, that man asked Doctor Zhang for medical treatment, but he didn't have enough money. He was kicked out several times and was unwilling to accept it, so he wanted to ask Doctor Zhang's wife, but he disturbed his wife."
"How is it now?"
"He was beaten so badly, covered in blood, and thrown into the back hill." Chunni was still frightened.
Qingguan's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, "Who is he seeking medical treatment for?"
Chunni sighed and said, "I heard it was for his old mother, but I don't know if it's true or not."
Qingguan's eyes showed an unbearable look, and he made a decisive decision: "Chunni, give him all the money you have. If he is willing, let his old mother take him to Jin Mansion to seek treatment from Uncle Fu."
"Miss, you are just a beggar, why should we..."
"Chunni, in front of filial piety, there is no distinction between high and low. You go quickly." Qingguan said sternly.
"Yes, miss!" Chunni ran away quickly.
Qingguan straightened his clothes and took a deep breath. As a doctor, conscience is the most important thing. If you don't save money for money, you are definitely not a good doctor. Although the Qian family is gone, she will never forget the ancestral precepts of the Qian family.
Qingguan walked out from behind the tree, turned around and left. After taking a few steps, a woman dressed like a maid came over with a sweet smile and said crisply: "But the sixth lady of the Gu family?"
Qingguan nodded suspiciously, "What's the matter?"
Seeing Qing Guan's wary look, the little maid hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, young lady. I am a maid of the British Duke's family. Our prince would like to invite the young lady to come over and have a talk."
Yin Lifeng
Qingguan never thought that that guy would come to her, and said calmly: "I'm sorry, your eldest son and I have never met each other, and the relationship between men and women is not clear. It should be avoided, so you can go back."
The little maid seemed to have expected that Qingguan would refuse, so she quickly lowered her voice and said: "Sixth Miss, my eldest son used to be friends with the eldest daughter of the Qian Mansion. I heard that the Sixth Miss came to Beijing, so I wanted to meet her."
"Yeah?"
Qingwan's voice was very soft, like clouds floating in the sky that would disperse when the wind blew. No one knew the shock in her heart at this time.
In her previous life, she and Yin Lifeng were never good friends, but mortal enemies who would quarrel and fight whenever they disagreed with each other.
They always quarreled over one person, and that person was the eighth young lady Yin Daimei.
"Yes, miss. The prince is waiting over there. He only wants to say a few words and it won't waste any time."
Qing Guan was unmoved and said with a smile: "I'd like to tell you, my dear prince, that my old friend has passed away and I have nothing to say to him. Farewell."
"Hey... Miss!" Seeing that Qingguan was about to leave, the little maid became a little anxious and stretched out her hand to block the way.
Qingguan stood quietly and looked at her coldly.
The little maid was startled by the coldness in her eyes, and she retracted her hand.
Qingguan took out a broken piece of silver from her arms, stuffed it into the little maid's hand, and said calmly: "Thank you for your hard work."
The little maid glanced at Miss Sixth's curling back, then at the broken silver in her hand, and said to herself: "It looks good, but her eyes are a bit cold."
Qingguan entered the wing, which was packed with people and there was no place to stay. She was too lazy to join in the fun, so she stopped in front of a plum tree in the courtyard.
Princess Huayang's voice came out from the room. She was smiling, joking, and complimenting her. She looked like she was good at dancing.
Qingguan listened carefully for a few times, then someone pushed her hard on the back, causing her to stagger forward a few steps. When he looked back at the person, his expression turned cold.
Half of Gu Qingyun's face was slightly swollen, and he stared at her viciously.
Qingguan straightened her back and glared at him unceremoniously. It seems that this slap was too light.
Neither of them gave in, and they were in a stalemate, when they saw Mrs. Zhou coming back from the archway with her confidants laughing.
It happened that Huayang's laughter came from the side room, and Mrs. Zhou's face suddenly changed, she stopped, curled her mouth twice, and rolled her eyes vigorously. Her appearance was the same as that of the women in the market outside. .
Qingguan glanced sideways at Gu Qingyun and slowly lowered his head.
"My lord, the sixth lady said that my old friend has passed away and she has nothing to say to you." The little maid imitated Qingwan's tone, which was quite similar.
When Yin Lifeng heard the word "old friend", a face immediately appeared in front of his eyes. After a moment, he shook his head vigorously.
It's been six years, but this face is still so clear. It's really a ghost.
That's all, originally I had nothing to say to the sixth lady, but I just wanted to take care of Qian Ziqi. Since the other party doesn't appreciate it, there's no need for him to be hot-faced and cold-hearted.
Yin Lifeng put down his robe and strode away.
Since today was the Lantern Festival, all the governments had to rush back to Beijing for the reunion dinner before sunset, so Mrs. Chen sat for a while and then left with an excuse.
All the girls in the Gu family arrived and quickly prepared to go back home.
Huayang and Zhou, one on the left and the other on the right, held Wei's arm and took the lead to go out, followed by a group of people.
Qingguan was anxious, Chunni didn't come for a long time, it couldn't have been an accident. Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Chunni walking over in a hurry.
"What took you so long?" Qingguan asked as he walked.
Chunni wiped the sweat from his head and gasped: "Miss, that man has passed out and can't be woken up no matter how much he screams. The slave girl had an idea and spent money to find two pilgrims and help hire a carriage to drive They were sent to the Jin Mansion."
Qingguan glanced at her appreciatively and said, "Good Chunni, so clever."
Chunni was praised by the young lady, and he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Miss, that Dr. Zhang doesn't look like someone who heals diseases and saves people. Look at Yinu, he is simply an executioner. That man was beaten terribly."
Qingguan frowned.
"By the way, miss, I just saw the third miss with a swollen face. What's wrong with her?"
"I was beaten."
"ah!"
Chunni was shocked. Miss Jinyu is a person who can't even bear to trample an ant to death, but she can beat people? It seems that the third lady must have done something immoral.
"Ah, what? Your young lady's hands are not only capable of diagnosing pulses, performing acupuncture, and prescribing medicines, but occasionally they can also hit people in the mouth and administer poison."
"Miss, please leave this rough job of beating people to your slave. My slave has strong hands and can beat you happily."
Chunni caressed Qingguan's hand distressedly, bit her ear and said, "Miss, tell me quickly, why did the third lady offend you?"
When the girls of the Gu family returned home, the sun was gradually setting. Dinner had been prepared in the mansion. They all had a reunion dinner in the Shou'an Hall and then dispersed.
Qingguan drank a few sips of hot tea, leaned comfortably on the pit, and sighed.
Before he could even sigh, there was a maid talking outside.
"Sixth Miss, Prince Qi's palace has sent someone to invite us to enjoy the lanterns in our mansion. The princess asked Sixth Miss to change her clothes and go with us."
During the Lantern Festival, there are lantern markets in several lively streets in Beijing. The young wives and older girls who are usually detained at home will take advantage of this day to watch the lanterns together.
Qingguan frowned and shook his head towards Yueniang.
Yueniang opened the curtain and walked out, sighing: "My sixth lady really wants to go, but there was some cold wind blowing in the temple today. She feels a little uncomfortable now. She was complaining of chest tightness just now."
"Then I will tell the princess truthfully."
Yueniang took out a piece of broken silver and stuffed it into her hand, "Who in our house is going?"
The little maid received the reward and said with a smile: "Several ladies have gone. Let your lady rest. I have to go back to report the news. The palace's carriage is still waiting at the gate."
Yueniang entered the room, picked out the wicks, and said angrily: "Miss, why don't you go see the lanterns? I have never seen the lantern market in the capital. I want to go with the lady to see the market?"
Qingguan picked up the medical book and said with a half-smile, "Who knows what the people in that mansion are planning."
"Even looking at a lamp, they have to plot. The people in this palace are too scary." Yueniang said to herself.
Fourth update moment.
The bustling capital finally fell silent.
Qingguan had been tired for a day and had already fallen asleep.
A dark shadow fell lightly in the yard. She walked to the window and knocked a few times. Yueniang woke up and called out in a low voice: "Who is it?"
"Yue Niang, please get up quickly. Qian Fu has something important to ask the lady to come over."
Qingguan was vaguely aroused by Yueniang. Hearing that there was something going on in the house next door, her heart skipped a beat and she asked Yueniang to hurry up.
After half a cup of tea, Qingguan hurriedly entered the inner house of Jin Mansion.
Qian Fu, who had been waiting for a long time, came up to him and said, "Miss, will I take you to meet someone?"
"who?"
"Miss, you will know when you see it."
In the inner room, a smell of medicine hit her face. Qingguan walked to the bed, looked at the middle-aged man on the bed, turned around inexplicably, and said, "Who is he?"
"He is the patient that the young lady ordered to be sent here today."
Qian Fu took the candle lamp on the table, came closer and said, "Miss, take a closer look, who is he?"
The man on the bed had his eyes closed, his eye sockets were sunken, his beard was sloppy, there was blood on his face, his hair was messy and scattered around, and some of it was stuck together after being rubbed.
Qingguan looked at it carefully and shook his head.
Qian Fu looked a little disappointed and sighed: "Miss, is he from the Shi family?"
Shi family, which Shi family? Qingwan didn't react for a moment.
"Prince Taifu Shige Lao."
Qingguan's heart skipped a beat and she said with a trembling voice, "Then he is..."
"He is the 22nd son of the Shi family. He is a concubine and his biological mother is a brothel girl."
Qingguan never expected that this person was Shi Minwei, the son of Mr. Shige, and was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time.
Mr. Shige is a great scholar of the generation and a leading figure in the cabinet.
This man was from Jinzhong, a scholarly family, and had passed the imperial examination in Sanyuan. He was appointed by the late emperor to enter the Hanlin Academy, where he became famous for a time. Since then, he has been working as an errand for the late emperor.
The former emperor passed away and the new emperor ascended the throne. Old Shige assisted the new emperor with merit and was reused.
The new emperor appreciated his talents and knowledge, and specially ordered the prince to worship him as his teacher, grant him the position of Taifu, and give him a first-rank official position.
The prince conspired to rebel, which made Long Yan furious and wanted to depose the prince. Shige Lao complained about the prince and was scolded by the new emperor. He died to express his will, and his blood was splashed in front of the court. Although Mr. Shige was an excellent official and teacher, there was one thing that he was criticized for, and that was his lustful nature.
