The room was silent for most of an hour, until the aunt coughed up blood, and Wen Qingzhu went over to give the aunt the acupuncture.
Boss Du looked at her technique and was shocked.
He has been practicing medicine for so many years, but he has never had a technique like Wen Qingzhu's.
She looks young, but her acupuncture techniques are extremely sophisticated.
Boss Du was a little unsure. Did she come here for Zhang Chunlai
But several people from the capital came to the capital before, and finally died.
After Wen Qingzhu finished acupuncture, Xi'er suddenly walked in from outside, looking a little panicked.
"Miss!"
When she was about to speak, she realized that Boss Du was still here, so she lowered her voice, walked over to Wen Qingzhu, and whispered to her quietly.
"What! There's going to be a draft this fall?" Wen Qingzhu gritted his teeth. Jiang Yuanhan was fully prepared, and he was only ten years old!
Seeing that Wen Qingzhu did not avoid Boss Du, Xi'er simply said directly: "Yang Liu didn't write a letter directly, he used the secret text we agreed on."
With that said, she took out a handkerchief and handed it to Wen Qingzhu.
After Wen Qingzhu checked it, he began to feel nervous.
If it were just a normal draft, it wouldn't be held in the fall.
Considering that neither King Ning nor King Chu had a royal concubine, Jiang Yue most likely wanted to use this matter to arrange his own manpower.
"Miss Wen, you said there will be a draft in Beijing this fall?" Boss Du's voice suddenly interrupted.
Wen Qingzhu looked up and found that Boss Du's expression became nervous.
"what are you worried about?"
Although Boss Du pretended to be calm, he was still full of flaws.
"It's nothing. Can I ask Miss Wen who she is?"
Wen Qingzhu looked at him quietly, looked up and down, and smiled: "I can't tell you my identity yet, unless you can prove that you are useful to me."
Boss Du's eyes narrowed slightly, and he was struggling in his heart.
This Miss Wen has extraordinary medical skills, makes up for her plans, and knows that the Du Family Pharmacy is providing medicinal materials to the Zhang family.
Even Zhang Chunnian didn't know about this, yet she actually knew about it.
After hesitating for a moment, Boss Du decided to give it a try: "Send someone over to Du's Pharmacy tonight."
After saying these words, he turned and left here.
Watching his leaving figure, Wen Qingzhu carefully recalled what had just happened.
Xi'er just talked about the draft. Will this have any impact on the Du family
"Lu Tao, go and investigate. Is there any girl from the Du family on the draft list?"
"yes."
The night gradually darkened, and a carriage driving on the streets of Lingcheng was suddenly stopped.
The driver stopped the carriage, and Xi'er opened the curtain and said in surprise: "Miss Zuo?"
Wen Qingzhu sat at the door of the car and found that Zuo Binning stopped them alone.
"Miss Wen, I'm thinking of Lu Ce, can you take me to meet him?"
"Can't Miss Zuo go there by herself?" Wen Qingzhu keenly sensed that something was wrong with Zuo Bingning's mood.
Who knew that Zuo Bingning turned the horse's head and ran away.
Xi'er lowered the curtain, and Wen Qingzhu hesitated for a moment, but still ordered the driver to go to Ruyi Tower first.
When they got downstairs, Lu Tao changed to another carriage and went to Du's pharmacy.
After entering the building, a girl immediately led her to the room where Lu Ce was.
When he arrived at the door, Wen Qingzhu saw Lu Ce sitting by the bed, looking at the watery moonlight, holding a luminous cup in his hand, exuding gleaming light.
She walked in and sat down opposite Lu Ce.
Only then did she realize that what Lu Ce was drinking was wine, or the Huadiao she wanted to drink but failed to drink last time.
Wen Qingzhu directly reached out and picked up the wine bottle, raised it high, raised his neck, and drank directly. ,
"Ahem!" Wen Qingzhu was really not good at not drinking and choked immediately.
Lu Ce then turned around and found Wen Qingzhu wiping the corners of his mouth in embarrassment.
He turned around and gave an order, asking someone to bring another luminous cup over.
Wen Qingzhu put down the wine bottle, looked at the moonlight cup in his hand, and marveled: "Master Lu's taste is indeed different from ordinary people. This luminous cup can buy a hundred acres of fertile land."
"Bing Ning went to find you?" Lu Ce asked.
Wen Qingzhu smiled softly and looked up at him: "You won't call me Miss Zuo this time?"
Lu Ce frowned slightly.
"No kidding." Wen Qingzhu's face straightened, "Tell me, what happened? From the look of you, this matter doesn't seem to be easy to solve."
"The capital issued an imperial edict to Northwest, asking Bingning to march to Beijing during the Mid-Autumn Festival."
After hearing this, Wen Qingzhu paused his hands and thought for a moment: "What is Miss Zuo's identity? Isn't she just Qiao Hu's cousin?"
It was Lu Ce's turn to be surprised. He stared at Wen Qingzhu for a long time before he was sure that she really didn't know.
He turned to look out the window: "In the northwest, in addition to the Lu family, the generals who govern the country, the Zheng family is responsible for the military power. Among them, the Zuo family has also been in the northwest for almost a hundred years."
"Why have I never heard of it?" Wen Qingzhu was slightly surprised. Could it be that the reputation of the Northwest Lu family is too prominent
She didn't think so.
Lu Ce continued: "The Zuo family used to be a literary official, but later made a mistake and was demoted to the northwest. Although they did not hold military power, they were the go-between between the capital and the Lu family. Now that Mrs. Zheng has returned to the capital, she has The military power was placed in the hands of the Zuo family."
"Mrs. Zheng's military power has been taken away?" Wen Qingzhu began to wonder, does this mean that Prince Huai was completely excluded by Jiang Yue
"Now Zuo Bingning is the direct daughter of the Zuo family. The emperor has issued an imperial edict for her to go to Beijing for the draft. The ninth floor may marry Prince Ning."
When Lu Ce thought of Jiang Yuanan's reputation, he couldn't help but worry about Zuo Binning.
"No." Wen Qingzhu shook his head firmly.
Lu Ce looked at her: "Why not?"
Wen Qingzhu laughed: "Because Zhang Chunnian is going to fall, the King of Chu will definitely sever ties with him, and only King Ning will be the one to take the blame."
"But Zhang Chunnian hasn't fallen yet." Lu Ce pressed forward step by step.
Wen Qingzhu said nothing, tapping his knuckles on the table.
Now she has to wait for news from the Du family before she can make further inferences.
"I can help you." Lu Ce suddenly said.
Wen Qingzhu raised his eyes and looked at him: "What?"
"The marriage between Jiang Dejia and Fu Lie." Lu Ce said with certainty.
Wen Qingzhu's heart trembled: "This matter is difficult to change."
Lu Ce chuckled: "It's hard to change, but there is still a chance."
"You want me to help Zuo Bingning." Wen Qingzhu understood what he meant. Lu Ce really cared about Zuo Bingning.
Unexpectedly, just as she was thinking this, Lu Ce suddenly said: "Xiaochuan will not let Bing Ning go to the capital like this. She will still come to me for help when the time comes."
"It's not that you want to..." Wen Qingzhu looked into his eyes seriously. She didn't understand. Does Lu Ce like Zuo Bingning
"Huh?" Lu Ce looked back at her.
Wen Qingzhu sneered: "It's okay, it's just me who talks too much."
Since Lu Ce said that he had a solution, Wen Qingzhu naturally felt relieved and made a deal with him.
As soon as he walked out of Ruyi Building, Wen Qingzhu was stopped by Zuo Binning.
"Miss Wen! Why did you come to see Lu Ce alone?"
Listening to Zuo Binning's angry questioning, Wen Qingzhu couldn't help laughing: "Yes, Miss Zuo, don't worry, Mr. Lu has arranged everything for you."
"What did he arrange?" Zuo Bingning suddenly became nervous.
Wen Qingzhu smiled: "Miss Zuo, you can go to the carriage with me to talk."
Zuo Binning hesitated for a moment, looked at Ruyi Tower, then at Wen Qingzhu, and finally agreed.
Throughout the conversation, Wen Qingzhu was mostly analyzing the current situation and what Lu Ce wanted her to do.
At the end, Zuo Bingning suddenly said: "Then what do you want him to do? Isn't it something more difficult for him?"
Wen Qingzhu held his forehead, this child was really sincere.
Lu Ce is always considered.
"Don't worry, he took the initiative to propose what he wanted to help me with. Since he proposed it, it can definitely be done."
Wen Qingzhu held Zuo Bingning's hand and found that she was still very nervous.
At the door of the house, Wen Qingzhu got off the carriage, and Zuo Bingning jumped out after him.
After looking around, she said in surprise: "Isn't this grandpa's villa?"
"Yes, Qiao Hu specially prepared it for me." Wen Qingzhu smiled, and then invited Zuo Bingning, "Would you like to come in and take a look."
Zuo Bingning found that Wen Qingzhu was not annoying at all, and even cared about her.
She only hesitated before agreeing.
After entering, she looked at it intently and praised: "What you have here is just the style Lu Ce likes!"
"It's different. Look carefully." Wen Qingzhu began to slowly explain to her what kind of style Lu Ce liked and what kind of style she had here.
The two of them sat in the room for a while, and then Lu Tao came back.
She brought back a box.
After opening it, there was a prescription of herbs inside.
After Wen Qingzhu checked one by one, he found that this medicine was used to treat a terminal illness, and it was prescribed to women.
"Is anyone in the Zhang family suffering from a terminal illness?" Wen Qingzhu began to think intently.
Zuo Bingning, who was sitting originally, was surprised when she heard her mention the Zhang family: "No way, apart from Mrs. Zhang and Miss Zhang, the Zhang family only has some concubines from Magistrate Zhang. There shouldn't be anyone suffering from a terminal illness." Bar."
Wen Qingzhu immediately looked up at her: "Are you familiar with the Zhang family?"
Seeing Wen Qingzhu looking at her so earnestly, Zuo Binning felt a little embarrassed: "I'm not very familiar with her. I just met Miss Zhang twice when I came here two years ago. We had a good time, but Mr. Zhang doesn't like me." , then Mrs. Zhang stopped taking care of things, and when I came to Lingcheng again, I never saw Zhang Yao again."
"Then can you write a message to Zhang Yao and meet her?" Wen Qingzhu asked immediately.
"Ah?" Zuo Bingning was stunned, "When I came here last year, I wrote her a message, but she didn't reply, so I didn't write it this year."
Wen Qingzhu thought for a moment, took Zuo Binning's hand and said, "Write another invitation to Zhang Yao, and I will teach you. I guarantee that she will agree. If you write it, I will take you to see Lu Ce tomorrow." Sample?"
At this time, Wen Qingzhu naturally had to make good use of Lu Ce.
Anyway, such a big living person is here, so it’s useless if he doesn’t use it.
Lu Ce, who was writing a letter, suddenly sneezed and had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Really?" Zuo Binning looked at you overjoyed and agreed without hesitation.
Wen Qingzhu smiled and asked Xi'er to get pen and paper.
Early the next morning, the Qiao family sent an invitation to the Zhang family.
This time the post was delivered directly to Mrs. Zhang. After reading the signature, Mrs. Zhang called Zhang Yao over.
"Yao Yao, Miss Zuo wants to invite you to go out to play together. You don't have many friends in Lingcheng. Get ready. Mom will send someone to take you out tomorrow."
Zhang Yao was stunned: "Is it Bing Ning?"
The smile on Mrs. Zhang's face became gentler: "Yes, last year your father didn't allow you to associate with Miss Zuo. This year, Miss Zuo wrote you an invitation regardless of the past. You have to agree to it. Mom has read it. , Miss Zuo is a cheerful and simple girl."
"Okay, okay." Zhang Yao nodded hurriedly.
But after the surprise, he suddenly thought that Fu Shiyi was still in the house, and he was a little worried: "What if I go out and Brother Shiyi has no one to take care of him?"
