Chapter 374 Doctor Du! We are here to take you home
The King of Qi said nothing, but waved his hand in the air. Someone came over and knelt on the ground. He ordered the man, "Send Doctor Du to the front hall to serve tea."
"yes!"
The man bowed to Du Wanwan and made a "please" gesture.
Du Wanwan walked away with her hands behind her back.
The King of Qi looked at her back and felt sick to his stomach. If he knew who had stolen the silver from his warehouse, he would tear that person into pieces and grind his bones to scatter ashes.
Du Wanwan: “???”
Want to know? I won’t tell you.
Holding his stomach, the King of Qi stumbled back to the study, closed the door, and pressed on the bookshelf on the right. The bookshelf moved to both sides, revealing a door.
Pulling it open, there was a dark room inside that was big enough for three people to hide in. The painkiller he bought from Du Wanwan last time he went to Liangjun City was placed in here. Today, he had a severe stomachache and had to drink a bottle.
There were originally several bottles of potion in the box, but due to the many chores and frequent pains in my body, there are only three left now.
If he drank one more, there would only be two left. He would have to suffer the pain twice more, and all the medicine would be used up.
He picked up a bamboo tube, pulled it open, tilted his head back and poured all the medicine into his mouth. As he fumbled with the bamboo tube, the King of Qi's face became more and more uglier.
Du Wanwan must not be offended, no matter what her identity is, she cannot be easily at odds with him.
He was wrong before, and yelling at her would only get him no good.
Doctor Du held the potion he needed, and the princess held the weapon she wanted. The matter was almost settled, but the silver in the treasury was gone.
Doctor Du seemed to be able to calculate, why would he think of verifying the capital? Fortunately, she made this unreasonable request, otherwise he would not know that the silver in the treasury had been stolen and not a single penny was left.
That was the wealth he had accumulated over ten or twenty years. Whether it was a reward from the palace or something his mother had sent him from afar, he put it all in that warehouse.
He thought that place was the safest, but he didn't expect that everything had been taken away and he had no idea about it. He got so angry just thinking about it that he almost exploded.
Without money, what's the point of talking about cooperation? What's the point of talking about reaching that position?
Du Wanwan, who was drinking tea in the living room, wanted to say: When you meet my Yaya, you don’t have to talk about anything. Money is not safe anywhere you put it. It is safest only in its hands.
I drank the potion, closed the door of the darkroom, restored the bookshelf to its original state, sat for a while, and felt that my stomachache was not as severe.
The King of Qi couldn't help but sigh that Doctor Du was indeed a miracle doctor. The potion was really effective and had an immediate effect every time he drank it.
This person really cannot be offended. If he offends her and she no longer provides him with potions, what will it matter even if he climbs to that position?
Wouldn't the stomachache kill him? If he was dead, what was the point of that position?
If they used force to imprison her, I'm afraid the King of Dongchen would not agree. Doctor Du was their princess who protected the country, and he would still die if the muskets were fired at him.
Since the hard approach doesn’t work, we can only try the soft approach.
The news of the theft in the palace warehouse cannot be leaked out and must be blocked.
Keep her in the palace temporarily, provide her with good food and drink, and don't worry about her causing any trouble.
After feeling better, the King of Qi quickly arranged for people to investigate the theft in the warehouse, and also discussed with his staff the serious problems that would follow.
The discussion lasted until the evening. When the people in the west of the city saw that Doctor Du had not returned, they all gathered together and rushed to the Prince of Qi's palace.
"We must get Doctor Du back this time. We have to get him back."
"What kind of illness would the King of Qi take so long to treat? It's almost dark, why doesn't he let Doctor Du go back?"
"Are you really going to detain Doctor Du in the palace? You really don't care about the people in the west of the city."
"The palace cannot be so overbearing and unreasonable to detain someone for no reason."
Chen Xiangxiu and Xu Shi, Yetingyu, Du Xiuxiu, Du Jiang, Yao Meixian, Du Wenjun, Chu Hanfeng, Du Wenguan, and Du Wenhuo were all here.
Together with the common people, they stood outside the gate of Prince Qi's mansion and shouted to the inside: "Doctor Du! We are here to take you home."
They didn't say anything else but just shouted this sentence in unison.
Ji Donghai led the people from the east of the city to join in the shouting. The scene was truly spectacular, and many people from the south of the city came out to watch.
Everyone shouted in unison, and the sound was so loud that it resounded through the sky.
"Doctor Du! We are here to take you home."
"Doctor Du! We are here to take you home."
"Doctor Du! We are here to take you home."
"Doctor Du! We are here to take you home."
“Yes… yes… yes…”
A people's clinic opened in the west of the city. The doctor's surname was Du. Everyone in the east, south, west and north of the city knew about it.
Because the West City People's Hospital provides free anthelmintics to children, no matter whether you are from the east, south or north of the city, as long as you are a child, they will give you medicine.
You just need to register and tell the baby's parents when to get the second dose of pills.
Without mentioning anything else, just mentioning this, the people all know who Doctor Du is. In addition, Cao Qiwen, the owner of Fenglin Bookstore, came forward to say that his big belly disappeared because of the surgery performed by Doctor Du.
He inadvertently praised Dr. Du's medical skills to a new level.
Everyone thinks that she is a miracle doctor, not someone who has gained her reputation for nothing or is seeking fame for nothing, but a miracle doctor who really has the ability and can cure many difficult and complicated diseases.
When they heard that she was brought to the palace by the King of Qi and had not returned until dark, the people in the west of the city were worried and all went out to take Doctor Du home.
This trick was thought up by Nan Ba. He was afraid that if everyone gathered at Prince Qi's Mansion, the guards in the mansion would rush out and drive them away, suppress them, and accuse them of gathering to cause trouble.
Before we came, we had a unified tone and asked everyone not to say anything, but just shout: "Doctor Du! We are here to take you home."
There is nothing wrong with this statement, no matter who comes, no one can find fault with it. Doctor Du's clinic is located in the west of the city and is deeply loved by the people.
Since she hasn't come home so late, there's nothing wrong with everyone coming to pick her up. It's not against the law.
Du Wanwan in Prince Qi's mansion heard the shouting outside. With a smile on her face, she leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes to rest.
She was patiently waiting for the King of Qi to show up. There had been so much noise outside for so long, was he going to turn a deaf ear to it?
The King of Qi wanted to play dumb, but the housekeeper lost his temper and hurried to the door of the study, kneeling down with a plop: "Your Highness! It's bad, many people are outside, shouting to take Doctor Du home."
What? Ouyang Qing stood up immediately, looked at the dark sky outside, and angrily shouted at the housekeeper: "Then let him go back quickly! What are you waiting for?"
The people have rushed to the gate of his palace to demand the release of the person. How could he not release him?
If he didn't let them go, those people would probably dare to shout at the gate of the imperial palace. If that alarmed his father, he would definitely scold him to death.
Touching his belly that had just healed, the King of Qi sighed helplessly in his heart. Doctor Du really could not be offended. Even the common people protected her.
What can he do with her?
