Chapter 58 Pei Yanli learns about her illness
The person Qin Yan found to take Cheng Shuyi's pulse was actually—
Zhao Ning!
When Zhao Ning saw Cheng Shuyi, he was slightly surprised.
After the surprise, there was a faint excitement.
When I took his pulse last night, I was unsure about one part of it. After going back and looking through a book, I had the answer in my mind.
Zhao Ning originally wanted to find an opportunity to ask the Regent to take the woman's pulse again.
Unexpectedly, the Grandfather of the Regent Palace suddenly died of illness.
I thought he was destined to miss that rare pulse.
Who knew we would meet again so soon!
Cheng Shuyi fainted from the pain last night. She didn't know that the person Pei Yanli asked to take her pulse last night was Zhao Ning.
She stretched out her hand, and Zhao Ning, a little impatient, placed the handkerchief on her wrist.
Then he took a special look at her pulse!
From time to time, he made a clicking sound, and shook his head and nodded.
This made Cheng Shuyi feel uneasy.
Could it be that her illness has worsened?
Qin Yan stood by the table, looking down at the two people who were taking his pulse, without saying a word.
Wait patiently.
Zhao Ning took nearly an incense stick of time to check the pulse of both of Cheng Shuyi's hands.
He was satisfied and recorded the pulse condition in the Imperial Hospital's book.
"How?" Qin Yan asked first.
While waiting for Zhao Ning to take his pulse, he kept staring at Cheng Shuyi.
It was almost noon and there was no ice in the curved building.
Cheng Shuyi sat there quietly in a light lotus-colored skirt, with beads of sweat oozing from her delicate and fair face, and her hair occasionally fluttering in the wind.
The eyes that were raised inadvertently met his gaze and the faint smile.
It was like a pink and white lotus among the vast green, floating lightly across his heart.
Qin Yan lowered his head and took a deep breath, slightly calming the uncontrolled beating of his chest.
When he looked up again, his expression was back to normal.
Zhao Ning folded the handkerchief and put it away. "This lady's pulse is tight, thin, and astringent. Her illness is deep and her pulse is scattered, which is a symptom of spleen and stomach deficiency."
"But..." Zhao Ning looked puzzled, carefully observing Cheng Shuyi's expression. "Madam's spirit is vigorous and her pulse is in danger, but her face doesn't. How strange!"
The pulse does not match the facial features.
It seems he needs to go back and look through the book.
Cheng Shuyi lowered his sleeves and jokingly said, "Maybe I still have some unfinished business, and I'm unwilling to give up, so my energy outweighs the symptoms."
She looked at Qin Yan and spread her hands: "Do you believe it now?"
The doctors said her pulse was in a critical condition.
Qin Yan couldn't stand her optimism and turned to Zhao Ning: "Thank you, sir."
Zhao Ning is the head of the Imperial Medical Bureau and has excellent medical skills.
When he was not on duty at the Imperial Hospital, he would occasionally disguise himself as a quack doctor and see patients.
Qin Yan trusted his medical skills.
Zhao Ning waved his hand and carried the medicine box.
Before leaving, he glanced at Cheng Shuyi again, as if hesitating whether to inform Pei Yanli about this matter.
Qin Yan rested his fingers on the edge of the table, tapping it carelessly.
After a moment, he laughed at the unfairness of fate and said, "I never thought that Hui'an Bank would also do the job of entrusting orphans."
He really didn't want Cheng Shuyi to die.
"It's not really entrusting the orphans to someone else." Cheng Shuyi said, "My two children's biological father is still alive."
She didn't know what she said was wrong.
Qin Yan suddenly turned his face away and left without saying goodbye.
Cheng Shuyi was left standing there, looking puzzled.
"Qulou will open in two days, Mr. Qin, remember to come and support it..." She still did not forget about business and shouted at Qin Yan's departing back.
Qin Yan's pace quickened.
Cheng Shuyi took advantage of the fact that no one was in Qulou, closed the door, climbed up to the attic, and installed the audio equipment she had already bought.
After climbing the attic, I climbed onto the roof.
She uses solar panels to generate electricity for these devices.
-
Regent's Palace.
There was a constant stream of people coming to pay their respects.
Most of them were court ministers who came with their families.
These people were supposed to attend the family recognition banquet at the Regent's Palace tomorrow.
Who knew that the funeral would arrive before the happy event?
After offering incense, the ministers waited for the funeral in the front garden to express their condolences.
During the funeral, the discussions about the death of the centenarian great-grandfather were less noticed than the children who were about to return home to meet their relatives.
"Lord Lu, have you seen the young master of the palace?"
“Not yet.”
A group of ministers gathered around and whispered.
"The great grandfather of the Pei Mansion passed away. Why didn't the young master come back to kowtow? Shouldn't he have returned to acknowledge his ancestors?"
"I heard... there was a big commotion at Pei's residence last night."
"Hush—" Several people tacitly moved to the corner of the garden and continued gossiping, "Master Lu, please tell me in detail!"
There were too many voices in the front yard about the young master not showing up to kowtow to the great grandfather.
It was difficult for Zhao to pretend not to know.
Her face looked very ugly.
I have already made a note of Cheng Shuyi, who has not yet married me.
She didn't believe that Cheng Shuyi hadn't received the news about the death of the great grandfather of the Pei family.
Even after knowing this, he didn't even bring the child back home to kowtow.
This was a great opportunity to announce to the world that her two children were descendants of the Regent's Palace, but she did not know how to use and cherish it.
What a stupid woman!
How could Yanli go to such lengths to separate his residence for such a woman!
After the burial of Pei's great-grandfather, Zhao Ning visited the family again.
It was not yet the seventh day after the death, and mourning banners were still hanging in the Regent's Palace, with the masters and servants all wearing mourning clothes.
Zhao Ning asked to meet Pei Yanli alone.
Pei Yanli went from the front hall to the ancestral hall to observe mourning, wearing mourning clothes and guarding for four days. He was so tired that his face was covered with stubble.
The smell of burning ashes and incense was all over his body.
Pei Yanli invited Zhao Ning to his study. Rubbing his brow, he looked exhausted. "What does Imperial Physician Zhao want from me?"
Zhao Ning also hesitated for a long time, and until today he still hasn't decided whether to tell Pei Yanli about Cheng Shuyi.
After hesitating for a long time, it was already dark.
He was so tormented by this incident that he couldn't sleep for several days and nights, so he came to find Pei Yanli at night.
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
Zhao Ning bent his legs and knelt down to apologize.
Pei Yanli slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were dry and astringent, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
"What crime has Doctor Zhao committed?"
Zhao Ning lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, regarding the pulse of that lady a few days ago, I have concealed something. I really cannot feel her pulse accurately."
"After this, I went back and looked through medical books and diagnosed that the lady's illness was critical."
The study suddenly became as quiet as a pool of stagnant water.
Zhao Ning didn't dare to look up, but he could feel Pei Yanli's gaze at this moment, which was complex and unpredictable.
Like the flickering candlelight on the table, it makes people feel uneasy.
After a long time.
It was so long that... Zhao Ning didn't even know how long it had been.
All he knew was that the moment he walked out of Pei Yanli's study, he felt that his body and mind were no longer in one place, and his soul had disappeared.
My back is completely wet!
In the room, Pei Yanli sat quietly on the chair.
His expression was gloomy and confused.
When he recovered, he had already arrived at Cheng's house.
All the lights in Cheng's house were out, and it was pitch black.
Cheng Shuyi had just come back from moving bricks in the modern world and lay down. He was not yet fully asleep and woke up at the slightest movement.
She was startled when she saw the dark shadow that suddenly flashed to the side of her bed.
"who!"
