Qingchan, who had already changed her clothes and put on makeup, admired her princess even more the moment she saw the village head!
At first she didn't understand why they had to go straight to Baifulou. The princess just said that there was a reason.
It turned out that the princess had already expected that she would return to investigate!
She frowned and said bluntly:
"Sir, what are you doing? I've already told you that my husband doesn't like crowds of people, and no visitors are allowed during his treatment.
Right now, my husband is treating your old man. If you knock on the door so loudly and disturb my husband, and if he gets his condition worse, we won't be able to help!"
He thought there was no one in the room, but suddenly saw someone coming out. He was scolded by the young man and felt a little unhappy!
But when he thought about the miracle doctor treating his old man, he suppressed his anger and said with a smile:
"I was a little anxious just now and bothered you, sir. Could you please let me in to see my old father?"
Qing Chan looked back at the bed in the inner room, then turned around and said:
"You can only stay in the outer room and not come near. My husband said that people coming in from outside have germs on them.
If the patient gets infected with it, it will be very detrimental to the disease!"
He just couldn't understand what bacteria were. As long as he could go in and take a look at his old father, he would feel at ease!
He nodded quickly and walked in.
As soon as I entered the room, I was hit by a strong herbal smell, which was a bit pungent.
He turned his head to look into the inner room and saw the young man holding silver needles and piercing his old father's abdomen one by one.
only......
He couldn't help but ask anxiously: "Is my father unconscious? Or?"
Qingchan explained expressionlessly:
"Your old man has an inflammation in his abdomen, and it just happened again, causing him unbearable pain.
In order to relieve his pain, my husband used the latest anesthetic developed, namely, highly effective Ma Fei San, and he fell into a deep sleep.
When he wakes up in an hour, this wave of pain will be over."
Hearing this, he was still worried.
He squinted his eyes and looked carefully at the bed, until he saw the regular rise and fall of his old father's abdomen, then he breathed a sigh of relief!
As long as this young doctor from Baifulou has no relationship with Gu Anxu, it will be fine!
The headman did not stay any longer and quickly said goodbye and left. He told the two servants downstairs to keep an eye on the place before he hurried to the Jia Mansion!
At this time, Fu Tong was already standing in the hall of the prefectural yamen.
He Wenqin looked intently and saw that Fu Tong looked haggard, with the green beard on his chin protruding.
He couldn't help asking:
"Master Fu, I just want to ask you, did you open the porridge stall at the City God Temple yourself? Or did the prefect approve the money for you to open it?"
After he finished asking the question, he saw Fu Tong glance at Jia Wensheng who was sitting beside him before replying:
"Your Excellency, this humble official was ordered by Lord Jia to do this!"
He Wenqin stared at him and asked:
"Master Fu, are you serious? I heard that the porridge stall has been open for over a month, and the people in the city and the refugees are all saying that you opened the porridge stall with the money you earned from selling your house and land.
You better think before you reply!"
He visited so many common people, and they all said in unison that the Tongzhi of Xuzhou Prefecture was a good official who worked hard for the people!
The disaster victims flocked to the porridge stall run by Lord Fu.
But why would he lie?
Just as he was thinking about this, he heard Master Huang in the hall say:
"A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. My master is wholeheartedly devoted to serving the people, yet he is always regarded as an alien by some mediocre officials!
You always look for opportunities to spread rumors and slander my master, and now you are trying to sow discord between the two masters. You really hurt the good people's hearts."
He Wenqin pretended to be surprised and asked:
"Is this really true? Master Huang is saying this is a malicious slander, a shady operation?"
Upon seeing this, Master Huang said in a very emotional voice:
"In reply to your Excellency, my Master was born in a poor family. He passed the imperial examination and was personally selected by our Emperor to join the Hanlin Academy and serve the Emperor.
Back then, my master was appreciated by His Royal Highness Prince Rui, who recommended him to the Emperor for a transfer.
Maybe it’s because my parents came from a poor background and have no backing, so they are most likely to be bullied by others.
Naturally, there is no shortage of jealousy, and everyone is eager to pull down my master and replace him with a villain."
He Wenqin heard this and replied indifferently:
"I have been in charge of the Inspectorate for ten years, inspecting no fewer than a hundred officials, and I have come to a wise conclusion:
"As long as one's conduct is upright, those shady little tricks will be nothing but fleeting clouds. Why should one be afraid?"
Jia Wensheng signaled Mr. Huang to shut up and said with a laugh:
"Sir He, you are indeed a great favorite of the Emperor. What you said is truly wonderful! Listening to your words is worth ten years of reading!"
He Wenqin waved his hand, stood up, and said coldly:
"Sir Jia, I have been ordered by the Emperor to investigate the disaster in Xuzhou.
Now you have neither grain nor silver, and the income and expenditure ledgers, as well as the tax ledgers of various counties, are incomplete.
I order you to pack it up and send it to the post station before noon tomorrow!
Also, from now on, have your people withdraw from the northern suburbs and release the victims from confinement!
The imperial physician and doctors I brought with me will go and treat the patient!
Lord Jia, I hope that this matter is caused by someone spreading rumors and slandering you for concealing the disaster and neglecting your duties. Otherwise, once it is discovered, you will lose your head.
Goodbye!
After he finished speaking, he strode away!
Jia Wensheng looked at He Wenqin's back, his face darkening as he said, "We must deal with the Tongshan County Magistrate tonight!"
Master Huang immediately responded, "Don't worry, sir."
As soon as he finished speaking, the guard outside the door walked in quickly and reported:
"Sir, someone from the mansion said that someone named Ding is here to see you."
Man?
When Jia Wensheng heard this, his expression froze and he immediately walked out quickly!
The carriage slowly passed through the street, and the wheels made a creaking sound.
Mr. Huang glanced at Jia Wensheng's expression and urged, "Drive the carriage faster!"
Upon hearing this, the driver immediately raised the reins and shouted, "Go!"
In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the carriage arrived at the Jia Mansion.
Jia Wensheng walked straight into the flower hall in the front yard, and saw the people in the hall rushing out towards him!
Ding Zhixun, the head of Heyan Village!
He, who was always calm and composed, now looked panicked, with beads of sweat on his forehead!
Jia Wensheng's heart sank. Something happened!
He grabbed the man's arm, walked quickly into the hall, and asked in a deep voice:
"What happened?"
But I didn't want to...
Ding Zhixun suddenly knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice, "Sir, the private warehouse was robbed!"
