Chapter 548: Confess the truth (one more)

It seems easy to say this from her mouth, but it is very difficult to actually implement it.

If a person who has lost both legs wants to stand up, he must make a pair of prosthetic limbs that suit him. The prosthesis is not the most difficult, but the difficulty is the receptacle. At present, there is no material suitable for the receptacle in the small medicine box.

But he said that Xiao Heng went out of the palace after visiting Empress Dowager Zhuang. Instead of going back to Bishui Hutong, he went to the hospital first.

At this time it was night, and the medical hall smelled of food. The girls' school next door had not yet started, and it was still deserted. That is to say, the business of the medical hall was good, and people came and went.

Xiao Heng entered the lobby and asked Er Dong's house behind the counter, "Is Master Xing still there?"

"Yes, yes." Er Dongjia said, he already knew that this Master Xing turned out to be the second-rank minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and suddenly felt that the medical hall was full of brilliance.

Xiao Heng was not a doctor, so he didn't know much about the treatment process, so he didn't think it was strange that the Minister of Punishment was still here.

He went up to the second floor and saw Xing Shangshu and Doctor Song in the innermost wing.

Xing Shangshu's arm was reset by Doctor Song long ago. The reason why he has not left is because Doctor Song found other problems in him.

Doctor Song gave him a careful pulse diagnosis and then prescribed a prescription, and then asked him whether he wanted to take it back to decoction himself or boil it into pills for him. The latter cost more money, but it was easier.

Since Xing Shangshu's family was not short of this amount of money, he let the medicine boy cook it.

"Is it serious?" Xiao Heng asked Doctor Song after learning about the situation.

Dr. Song said sternly: "The problem of drinking is found early, and it is not a big problem. In the future, pay more attention to diet, take more walks, and eat grammatically. The most important thing is."

Speaking of this, he looked at Xing Shangshu very seriously, "You must avoid alcohol."

Xing Shangshu cleared his throat embarrassedly: "Can't you drink a drop?"

He's just that little hobby.

"Not even a drop!" Dr. Song said irrefutably.

"Alas." Xing Shang sighed reluctantly, "I've been drinking for half my life, and suddenly I won't let you drink a drop, isn't it too cruel?"

Xiao Heng persuaded: "Doctor Song is also for the sake of adults."

Xing Shangshu waved his hands dejectedly: "Oh, okay, don't drink if you don't drink."

Dr. Song looked at him and said, "Don't say that you don't drink, go back and drink it secretly. I'll know if you drink or not next time you come to check your pulse."

This is Gu Jiao's mantra, I'll know if you do it or not.

The doctors in the hospital have all learned it, and it works well for patients.

Xing Shangshu choked and thought, I won't come to your clinic next time, okay

Seeing that Xiao Heng had something to tell Xing Shangshu, Doctor Song said, "I'm going to see how the pills are doing" after telling all the precautions, then turned around and went downstairs.

Xing Shangshu pointed to the table opposite: "Rokuro, pour me some water."

Xiao Heng poured a cup of hot tea for Xing Shangshu, Xing Shangshu drank a large cup in one breath: "One more, another cup!"

After drinking three cups in total, Xing Shangshu felt that his throat was less smoky.

"Am I talking or is he talking?"

Xing Shangshu's head hurts at the thought of being nagged by Doctor Song all afternoon.

Xiao Heng did not answer this.

Xing Shangshu shook his head, put Doctor Song behind him, and talked to Xiao Heng about business: "You just went out, but what did you find out about?"

"The oiran of Xianleju is not dead." Xiao Heng had already thought about what information could be said and what information could not be said on the way.

Xing Shangshu was shocked: "What? That girl named Mo Qianxue didn't die? Then why did they say..."

Xiao Heng speculated: "Several maids in Xianleju must have admitted their mistakes. As for Hua Xiyao, it is not surprising that she is acting."

Xing Shangshu frowned: "Is it intentional? So you two... are together?"

Xiao Heng: "Yes."

Xing Shangshu slapped his thigh: "I just said there is something wrong with Xianleju! What is the purpose of them acting together in such a play?"

Deal with me, deal with Gu Jiao.

This bureau was set up for both him and Gu Jiao. The mastermind behind it might be Xian Leju, or there might be other forces.

These words Xiao Heng did not tell Xing Shangshu for the time being.

Xing Shangshu asked, "Where's the Hua Kui?"

Xiao Heng said: "In the medical center."

"The hospital!" Xing Shangshu shoved the quilt and got out of bed, "Which room?"

Xiao Heng said: "In a wing in the backyard, she was seriously injured and was picked up by the doctor in the hospital. She is an important witness.

Xing Shangshu was puzzled: "Why was it picked up by the medical center? Did she do it on purpose? Is there something strange in this medical center?"

As expected of someone from the Ministry of Punishment, the logical reasoning is too strong, but Xiao Heng did not intend to tell him that Mo Qianxue came to Gu Jiao.

Right now is by no means the best time to investigate Mo Qianxue.

Xiao Heng said without changing his face: "The medical hall itself is nothing strange, but this medical hall is so famous that even Xing Shangshu has come here, and other nobles will also come when they have headaches and fever, maybe she is guarding something here. people."

Xing Shangshu said thoughtfully: "It makes sense for you to say that, or maybe she just wanted to fake death to hide her identity so that she could act in secret. After all, who would suspect a dead person? Then I wonder, Xianle. Is the owner of the residence dead or not? If he is not dead, where is he? If he is dead, who are they working for?"

There is also a young master, Xiao Heng said.

Xiao Heng said: "My wife is also a member of this hospital. I will tell her when I turn around and ask her to send someone to keep an eye on Mo Qianxue. As long as we keep an eye on her, we can always find clues."

Xing Shangshu thought for a while and said, "Okay, just do as you said. Let your wife be careful, Mo Qianxue has skills."

Xiao Heng nodded: "I know."

Xing Shangshu asked again, "Does anyone know about these things besides you?"

"The queen mother."

In the bedroom of Renshou Palace, Eunuch Qin called out to Empress Dowager Zhuang, who was sitting by the window.

Empress Dowager Zhuang returned to her senses and lightly squeezed the two candied fruits on the plate: "What's the matter?"

Xiao Jingkong is a good complainant, but whenever the Queen Mother Zhuang steals food, he is always the first to go to Gu Jiao to complain.

However, the little guy actually felt Empress Dowager Zhuang's depression and secretly gave her two candied fruits.

Eunuch Qin said: "It's nothing, just before Miss Gu asked the old slave to cook some ginseng soup for you, and when the ginseng soup is ready, will it be presented to you?"

"Bring it up." Empress Dowager Zhuang said calmly.

Eunuch Qin turned around, took the ginseng soup from the tray held by the little eunuch, walked over and gently placed it on Empress Dowager Zhuang's table.

Empress Dowager Zhuang did not move.

Eunuch Qin smiled: "it's not hot anymore, drink it while it's hot, it'll be cold later."

Empress Dowager Zhuang lazily picked up the ginseng soup and took a sip.

Eunuch Qin said embarrassingly, "Girl Gu's account of less salt, will it be a little unpleasant to drink?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang snorted: "Hey, I have never eaten the food made by Rokuro, so I don't have the right to say that it is unpleasant."

Eunuch Qin: "Uh..."

But to be honest, it is really unpleasant to drink. If it hadn't been poisoned by Xiao Heng's cooking skills, Empress Dowager Zhuang would not have been able to drink it.

Seeing that Empress Dowager Zhuang, though she disliked it, still daring to finish drinking, Eunuch Qin showed a sincere smile.

Sure enough, no matter how unpleasant it is to eat or drink, as long as it is explained by Miss Gu, the Queen Mother will accept it all.

"When Ning An was a child, were you there too?" Empress Dowager Zhuang said suddenly.

Eunuch Qin didn't know why the topic turned to Princess Ning'an. He was stunned and replied, "Yes, yes, the old slave entered the palace when the queen mother entered the palace, but she was not by your side to serve you."

Empress Dowager Zhuang looked out the window at the Begonia tree covered with snow and said, "Do you remember Ning An's temperament when he was a child?"

"Remember, remember!" Eunuch Qin said, "sweet mouth, lively, active, and always unable to calm down. If it wasn't for this, how could I have bumped into your phoenix in the imperial garden?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang said indifferently: "Concubine Jing's plan is nothing more, how could it be such a coincidence that she ran into Aijia's Fengxu? It's a pity that Aijia was young and didn't understand the dangers of the deep palace, so she mistakenly took the villain as her confidant. ."

Qin Gonggong asked observantly: "Does the queen mother regret it?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang tapped the table, Eunuch Qin poured a cup of hot tea with sharp eyes, Empress Dowager Zhuang picked up the cup: "What do you regret? Do you regret befriending Concubine Jing, or do you regret treating her two children kindly?"

His Majesty is not the flesh and blood of Concubine Jing, but since it is recorded in the name of Concubine Jing, it is indeed the child of Concubine Jing.

Empress Dowager Zhuang continued: "There is nothing to regret, the emperor and Ning An were indeed painful when they were young. The Ai family lost their son, thanks to them, the Ai family came out of the shadows. It is not so much the plan of Concubine Jing. Said to get what they need.”

"Then you now..." What do you mean by saying this? Eunuch Qin was a little unsure of which Empress Dowager Zhuang sang, and always felt that something was strange.

At first, Princess Ning'an was weird, but now the Queen Mother is also weird.

Empress Dowager Zhuang took a sip of tea and said, "Ning'an is a paper tiger. She relies on Ai's family to support her on weekdays. It hurts to die."

Mentioning this, Eunuch Qin seemed to see Xiao Ning'an crying in front of him. He smiled and said, "Princess Ning'an must have a light on when she sleeps. This habit is the same as Your Majesty."

Both siblings are afraid of the dark.

Empress Dowager Zhuang looked at Xiao Jiu, who fluttered her wings and fell on the Begonia tree with her wings sweeping snow, and said: "But one night, she suddenly became not afraid. Aijia remembers it very clearly, that was when Aijia was put into the cold palace by the late emperor. At that time, you were sent to the dungeon to do hard labor, and you were not with Aijia. Aijia had been ill for a few days, and there were thunderstorms that night, and Ning An came to the cold palace alone to see Aijia.”

"What else?" Eunuch Qin was surprised.

Empress Dowager Zhuang continued to drink the tea in her hand, and continued to say what was in her heart: "They are usually two brothers and sisters together. If there is only one person here, it must be Hong'er. So Aijia was surprised at the time. Ask her why you are here? She said, 'Mother, I came to see you, you are sick.' Aijia didn't tell anyone that Aijia was ill, and Aijia didn't know how the child knew, so she asked her, Aren't you afraid of the dark? She said, not afraid."

Eunuch Qin echoed with a smile: "Princess treats you with sincerity. For your sake, you can't even care about your fear."

Xiaojiu Sweeping Snow accidentally swept himself off. It thumped twice in the snow and seemed a little wronged. It flew over and squatted by Empress Dowager Zhuang's hand.

It seemed that she was waiting for Empress Dowager Zhuang to touch its feathers.

Empress Dowager Zhuang pushed Xiao Jiu away with a cup with a look of disgust.

Xiao Jiu who was rejected: "… "

Empress Dowager Zhuang said lightly: "Ai's family feels the same way, so Ai's family is really touched. Ai's family swears in her heart that Ai's family will love this child for the rest of her life."

The more Eunuch Qin listened, the more confused it became. There was nothing wrong with the Queen Mother's words, but the Queen Mother's expression was not so right.

Is it Mr. Xiao who came over today and said something to the Queen Mother

Xiao Heng sent Xing Shangshu to the carriage back to the house before he set off and walked back to Bishui Hutong.

The hutongs are full of small sounds of small headrooms.

"So excited?" Xiao Heng shook his head and stepped over the threshold.

It wasn't until he entered the house that Gu Changqing and Gu Chengfeng came over.

Gu Chengfeng came to buy hair restorer, and Gu Changqing came to see his younger brother and sister.

Gu Changqing and Gu Jiao went to the frontier and left Gu Yan here alone. Baby Yan expressed that he was very angry, but he was reluctant to be angry with Gu Jiao, so Gu Changqing endured all his petty temper.

Gu Changqing led Gu Yan on horseback and shot arrows with Gu Yan, and finally coaxed Gu Yan.

Then there is Gu Xiaobao.

When Gu Xiaobao was born, Gu Changqing was not in the capital. After the war, he rushed to the border without stopping, so today is his first meeting with Gu Xiaobao.

However, Gu Xiaobao seemed to be afraid of him, and when he was held in his arms, his small body trembled.

Gu Chengfeng rarely saw a good show of eldest brother, and laughed slyly, "You can't do it, eldest brother, Xiaobao doesn't like you."

Gu Changqing said coldly, "You can do it!"

"Come here!" Gu Chengfeng took Gu Xiaobao over without any pressure. As expected, Gu Xiaobao stopped shaking.

Gu Changqing's face darkened.

"Haha! I'll just say it!" Gu Chengfeng laughed three times.

The next second, he couldn't smile.

Because Gu Xiaobao suddenly drilled into his arms and opened his mouth to hold his—

Gu Chengfeng was shocked!

I'm not a nanny!
