Chapter 14
Li Ningyun took Wang He back to the capital.
Also brought back was the news that Mrs. Guo Wang had almost recovered.
Guo Wangshi herself has now recovered her health thanks to the treatment she received.
Many people came to the general's mansion under the pretext of visiting.
When I saw that Guo Wang had recovered.
Everyone exclaimed in admiration and congratulations.
After learning that Li Ningyun sold everything in the general's mansion, including her own dowry, in order to save her mother-in-law.
Everyone's expression was a little subtle.
Not long after, news spread from the general's mansion that Li Ningyun sold all her property and spent a large sum of money to buy medicine to save her mother-in-law.
Some people lamented that Guo An was so lucky to have married such a beautiful and kind wife.
Some people mocked Li Ningyun for being so stupid that she sold her property for a mother-in-law who treated her badly.
But no matter what, Li Ningyun's filial piety spread throughout the capital.
Li Ningyun looked at the disguised Wu Da in front of him and asked with a grin, "How's it going on the mountain now?"
Wu Da touched the back of his head and smiled his signature smile. "Hehe, good, all good. They know I'm here to see you, Boss, and they're all so envious of me. The village elders even asked me to bring them to say hello to you. You didn't see how jealous they looked at me. Hahaha, there's nothing I can do about it. It's your order. I wouldn't feel safe letting them come."
Li Ningyun smiled faintly as she listened to Wu Da chattering proudly.
She has been traveling through time for too long, and what she likes to see most is people with innocent hearts like this.
This made her feel that the world was a beautiful place.
She will not completely lose her enthusiasm for future life after traveling through time and space again and again.
"Okay, stay for a few days, and then I'll have someone send you back."
Wu Dalian hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, Miss, if you have nothing else to do, I plan to go back tomorrow. There is still a lot of work to do in the mountains. The land has been reclaimed and will be ready for planting in half a month. I have to go back to watch over it, otherwise I will be worried."
Li Ningyun smiled and nodded: "Okay, then I won't keep you here. You will be in charge of the matters on the mountain. If you encounter any trouble, send someone to find me."
Wu Da nodded: "Okay, thank you, boss."
Wu Da came here this time under the pretext of getting money for medicinal materials.
After all, it takes time to count the family assets, doesn’t it?
Everyone in the capital saw Wu Da driving his carriage away from the general's mansion.
Someone had a ulterior motive and followed Wu Da out of the city.
As a result, he was frightened by the dozen guards who came out of the carriage and quickly fled back to the city.
Li Ningyun took this opportunity to directly put all the dowry into her own system space.
Wang He's reputation as a miracle doctor was widely known in the capital.
Many people who have sick people at home also came to visit with gifts.
In front of Li Ningyun, Wang He has completely returned to his original temperament.
After all, Li Ningyun knew his background.
Seeing the current situation, Wang He was a little panicked: "What should I do? I can only deceive people by being a charlatan, not by treating them."
Li Ningyun smiled and said, "Don't you have me here? What are you afraid of? Just use your expertise to trick them, and leave the treatment to me. After the job is done, we'll split the profits 50-50."
Wang He was still a little panicked: "Is it possible?"
Li Ningyun nodded firmly: "It's necessary."
Wang He: “…”
Help, I'm getting more and more panicked...
There is no doubt that Wang He has a magical power of deceiving people. Li Ningyun has been in the world of cultivating immortals before.
There are also countless pills in his hands.
In just half a year, Wang He really made a name for himself in the capital.
Everyone in the capital knows that there is a miracle doctor living in the courtyard next to the general's mansion. The doctor has a strange temperament and whether you can see him depends on his mood. However, there is one exception, and that is the general's wife. As long as the general's wife brings people over, the miracle doctor will always give her some face.
So Li Ningyun's good reputation spread even wider.
As long as I make friends with Li Ningyun, I will have more protection when I seek help from a miracle doctor in the future.
How can people not get sick if they eat grains?
Who would complain that their life is too long?
Besides, that miracle doctor is said to be able to snatch people from the King of Hell!
One day, a stranger in a wheelchair came to Li Ningyun's house.
Li Ningyun looked at the young man, who was about twenty years old, and bowed, "My lady greets the eldest prince."
"Haha, Madam, there's no need to be so polite. I came here to ask for something."
Li Ningyun looked at the eldest prince in front of him.
He had picturesque eyebrows, a handsome and elegant face, but his eyes were very deep, as if he could see through him at a glance.
Li Ningyun smiled. After waiting for half a year, he finally got you. "Your Highness, your words are too polite. Please just give your orders directly."
The eldest prince said: "It is really presumptuous of me to say this. Before I came here, I investigated Madam and the miracle doctor in your house."
Li Ningyun looked up at the eldest prince in surprise. To be honest, Li Ningyun was not surprised that the eldest prince would investigate them.
If the eldest prince didn't know the whole story, he wouldn't have come to seek medical treatment with confidence.
Li Ningyun was surprised that the eldest prince was so frank.
The eldest prince smiled when he saw Li Ningyun's expression. "Madam, there's no need to be so surprised. I want you to help me treat my leg disease, so I don't want to hide anything from you."
Li Ningyun smiled calmly at this and said, "Your Excellency is too kind. It is an honor for me to be able to help you."
The eldest prince, Murong Xiu, was born to the late empress, who had passed away five years prior due to poor health. However, the emperor, deeply attached to the late empress, did not appoint a new empress upon her death. Instead, he directly appointed Murong Xiu as the crown prince, hoping to sever the ties of those concubines and princes who harbored their own agendas.
Focus on training Murong Xiu.
Murong Xiu did not disappoint the emperor. During the time he was the crown prince, he handled problems decisively and quickly, had his own principles, and was kind-hearted to the people, for which he was praised by all the civil and military officials in the court.
But as the saying goes, a prince who doesn't want to be an emperor is not a good actor.
If the prince is a hopeless case, they can still wait.
After the imperial court was in chaos and the people and civil and military officials were complaining, they would appear as saviors.
Then everyone responded and naturally replaced the prince.
But now, the prince is too outstanding and has blocked his retreat.
They don't even have a chance to play.
How is that possible?
So there was the incident half a year ago when Murong Xiu was framed, trampled by a mad horse, and had his legs broken during the royal hunt.
The emperor was furious.
The Second and Fourth Princes who framed Murong Xiu were directly demoted to commoners and imprisoned in the imperial mausoleum.
But everything was irreversible and the prince became disabled.
You can no longer be the crown prince.
The emperor posted countless imperial edicts, seeking capable and righteous people who could cure the prince's legs.
But the results were minimal.
The emperor had no choice but to revoke Murong Xiu's title of crown prince and train someone else.
The prince, who was originally pitied by everyone, became a recluse and no longer paid attention to the disputes in the court.
This time, the emperor learned that a miracle doctor had appeared in Kyoto.
He excitedly called Murong Xiu and told him about this matter. He wanted to summon the miracle doctor into the palace, but Murong Xiu refused: "Father, let me handle this matter."
The emperor looked at Murong Xiu's expression and nodded: "Okay, then I'll let you handle it."
So Murong Xiu asked someone to investigate Wang He and Li Ningyun.
Every failure is a learning experience.
Murong Xiu couldn't fall into the same pit twice.
Then the results of the investigation shocked him.
The miracle doctor who was widely praised throughout the capital turned out to be a charlatan.
And a woman who lives a secluded life is indeed a true miracle doctor.
this……
Although it was unbelievable, Murong Xiu still came after learning that Li Ningyun was the legitimate daughter of Marquis Wu'an.
If for no other reason, Marquis Wu'an had spent his whole life in military service, and his legitimate daughter was also a virtuous person praised in the capital.
Although this reputation of being virtuous is a bit exaggerated...
When Li Ningyun learned that Murong Xiu was investigating her, she deliberately revealed a flaw for him to notice.
It can also be said that the information that Murong Xiu was able to investigate was what Li Ningyun wanted him to see.
Li Ningyun looked at the eldest prince's leg and said with embarrassment, "Eldest Prince, your leg can be cured. But..."
Murong Xiu tried his best to appear calm upon hearing this, but his hands resting on his legs trembled uncontrollably, indicating that he was not as calm as he appeared. "Madam, please let me know if you have any difficulties. Xiu will do his best."
Li Ningyun nodded and said, "The eldest prince's leg is deformed. The broken part needs to be re-broken and then reconnected. This is not a problem, but you need to undergo closed treatment for three consecutive days. However, as you know, I am a widow and am still in mourning. I went out before to help my mother-in-law find a miracle doctor. I had no choice but to do so. Now I..."
In fact, if it were in modern times, there would be no need for any closed treatment, but this was in ancient times. Li Ningyun was really afraid that the backward medical environment in ancient times would lead to Murong Xiu's secondary infection, so he simply closed the room for three days and waited until Murong Xiu's condition stabilized before coming out.
Murong Xiu had no idea that Li Ningyun was afraid of trouble. He just thought that Li Ningyun felt that as a woman, it was unreasonable for two of them, a single man and a single woman, to live in the same room, even if they were not in mourning.
Although Murong Xiu also wanted to heal his legs, he couldn't do such a thing as making things difficult for a widow.
He frowned slightly.
Li Ningyun smiled and said, "I just want the eldest prince to keep my medical skills a secret. After all, you know my current situation, and I don't want to cause unnecessary trouble."
Is Li Ningyun afraid of trouble?
The answer is of course no, but she is an old goblin who has traveled through several worlds. Apart from being active when completing tasks, she does other things unrelated to the tasks based on her mood.
Murong Xiu's slightly frowned brows slowly relaxed: "I understand what you mean."
Li Ningyun smiled and said, "Depending on the time, if you're ready, please ask the Crown Prince to squeeze in with Divine Doctor Wang next to you, and then I'll come over to treat you. This process should be kept confidential. Furthermore, the Crown Prince needs to take care of security issues. I really don't want to have to fight monsters in the middle of a treatment."
"Hahaha, ma'am, you're joking. I will take care of all these things."
Li Ningyun nodded.
After the two of them agreed on a time for treatment, Li Ningyun sent Murong Xiu away.
Seven days later, in a room in Wang He's yard next door.
Li Ningyun handed a bowl of Ma Fei San to the eldest prince who was already lying in bed.
Murong Xiu drank the bowl of black medicine without any hesitation, and soon he completely lost consciousness.
Li Ningyun wore sterilized medical gloves and slowly cut open Murong Xiu's skin with a scalpel in his right hand.
Outside the door, the courtyard was already tightly guarded by Murong Xiu's secret guards.
From this we can see that Murong Xiu is indeed a very cautious person.
Four hours later, Li Ningyun dragged his somewhat tired body out of the room.
He said to the guards outside the room, "Don't go into this room. Tell someone to prepare some light meals and have them delivered in two hours. I'm going to rest for a while. Call me when you have the food. Remember, don't let anyone enter this room, or you will suffer the consequences."
After saying this, Li Ningyun jumped over the wall and returned to his own yard.
The guards were stunned when they saw the young widow jumping over the wall so skillfully: "..."
