Chapter 56 It’s so noisy, so noisy!
Dagger, Ji Yan,
Economic words, missions,
Mission, Wanbaolou,
The diplomatic missions, the Ministry of Rites,
Ministry of Rites, Gu Lintan——
Jiang Xue originally thought that things were only happening to her, but now these things are happening one after another, and they are all tied together like a tangled mess.
With so many thoughts in her mind, her headache only got worse.
Jiang Xue raised her head and asked, "Who went to invite the Second Brother before noon?"
Xiaochun said: "It's Chen Jin."
"Where did you invite him?"
"Chen Jin said that it was not long after the court session ended, and he was waiting at the palace gate. He only followed the second prince after he saw him get on the carriage."
"Not many people know that I invited my second brother to come, right?"
"I have explained the pros and cons to him. Wu Anlang is very cautious and it shouldn't happen."
Jiang Xue nodded and said, "Tell Chen Jin to go to the Ministry of Rites now and find a way to avoid being seen by everyone. Ask the second brother to come to the Gu Mansion as soon as possible. I have something to discuss with him."
Xiaochun nodded immediately and said to Fudong: "Then you go and tell Huang Fu first, I will go find Chen Jin now."
The two maids went out of the room together.
He Zhilin said to Jiang Xue, "Your body has been depressed for many years, and your qi and blood are deficient. You shouldn't think too much. You always have so many plans in your mind. How can you get better quickly?"
Jiang Xue didn't take it seriously and said, "It's not a big deal. If it doesn't work, Brother He, you're back. You can always find a way to help me recover."
He Zhilin was a little angry and rebuked in a low voice: "No matter how good a doctor is, he still needs the cooperation of the patient!"
Jiang Xue said, "What kind of patient? He is just a little weak. By the way, I haven't had time to ask you, what are your plans now?"
"Plan? What plan?" He Zhilin asked puzzledly.
Jiang Xue couldn't help but laugh when she saw his silly look.
"You came to the capital this time and lived with Madam Su Yu. Do you plan to stay? If you want to stay, I have to get you out of Gu Lintan's affairs as soon as possible."
"I've said it before, Your Highness and I have a brother-sister relationship, I can't just stay out of it." He Zhilin said in a deep voice, "Besides, I've been friends with the Second Prince for many years. If the Gu family is really involved in something bad in the court, I will do my best to help the Second Prince deal with it."
"Then tell me, has Gu Lintan looked for you in the past few days?" Jiang Xue asked.
He Zhilin was silent for a moment, then said, "No."
"That mother and son..." Jiang Xue raised her eyebrows, "didn't they ask you to come for a follow-up visit?"
One day, Ruan Yisui came to Gu's house to report the news. It is likely that he found some clues.
Jiang Xue didn't expect He Zhilin to tell the truth, but she also wanted to test his attitude.
He Zhilin said, "As for the mother and son, I said I would make arrangements. Your Highness, if it is an innocent person, I don't want the patient to be involved."
Jiang Xue sighed. He Zhilin was a doctor after all, and he had his own principles in everything. She didn't want to make things too difficult for him.
I'm afraid Ruan Yisui will know something about this when he comes back.
Jiang Xue said, "Except for asking you to see patients, don't do the rest of Gu Lintan's instructions. If you can promise me, I will no longer interfere in the affairs of that mother and son."
He Zhilin frowned and nodded.
Lu Qiongshuang sat at the tea table in a daze, covering his ears and pretending not to hear anything.
"It's getting late, why don't you stay and have dinner?" Jiang Xue said, "I haven't eaten for a day, I'm a little hungry."
He Zhilin shook his head and said, "I still have a lot of things to do in Yawu Cottage, so I have to go back first."
"Do you want to open a formal clinic?" Jiang Xue asked, "But you are still treating patients in Yawu Cottage. Why don't I invest in a bigger one and move it to East Street. It will be more convenient for patients to come, and you can also hire some people to help run errands and get medicine."
I can also be busy and not focus all my attention on Gu Lintan's mess. Of course, Jiang Xue didn't say this.
He Zhilin said, "It will take some time. The location and purchase of the shop cannot be completed in one day."
Jiang Xue said, "I'll send someone to do it. It's only natural that I can give you a shop as a token of my gratitude for treating me."
Seeing Jiang Xue's firm attitude, He Zhilin could only say, "If Your Highness has this intention, I will respectfully decline."
"But," He Zhilin had a headache, "How do I get out?"
Jiang Xue raised her chin towards Lu Qiongshuang and said, "There's a martial arts master sitting over there."
After letting Lu Qiongshuang send He Zhilin away, Jiang Xue ordered dinner.
Not long after dinner, Chen Jin came back.
"Your Highness, the Ministry of Rites is stepping up preparations to welcome the delegation. The Second Prince said that he might not be able to come today."
Jiang Xue hesitated for a while and said, "Wait a minute."
She walked to the desk, and Xiaochun immediately stepped forward, dropped a few drops of water on the inkstone, and began to grind ink.
Jiang Xue picked up the pen, thought again and again, and wrote a line of words.
"I suspect that Gan Shiyu has spies in Jijing, so I hope you will be careful."
After thinking for a while, he added, "Pay attention to Wanbao Tower."
She folded the small piece of paper, took out some wax to seal it, handed it to Chen Jin, and said seriously:
"Find a way to pass this to my brother, and don't let anyone else see it."
Chen Jin agreed, turned around and walked out.
Jiang Xue turned to Xiaochun and asked, "It's been a day, and you haven't seen Ruan Yisui yet?"
Xiaochun shook his head and said, "I haven't seen him yet. Should we ask other Wu'anlang to look for him?"
Jiang Xue said in a deep voice: "No need, he must have been delayed by something, so he wouldn't be missing."
As a Wu'anlang, Ruan Yisui is not completely without loyalty and ability.
Xiaochun said, "Your Highness, I have basically counted all the items in the Gu Mansion's warehouse today. It's hard to compare without the previous records, so I made a new record. Would Your Highness like to take a look?"
Jiang Xue said, "No need. Gu Lintan pretended to be robbed, so he must be hiding something. Are there any clues left?"
Xiaochun shook his head and said, "It's said to be stolen, but in fact, apart from a few large items, there are still quite a few rare treasures in the warehouse."
Jiang Xue said: "The records are lost, and I don't know whether these things are the wedding gifts."
Xiaochun nodded.
Jiang Xue added, "You should keep a closer eye on him from now on. Gu Lintan will definitely not reveal any clues for a while. I will find a way to provoke him later."
Xiaochun agreed.
After dinner, Lu Qiongshuang found a knife from somewhere and started practicing in the Wenqingxuan courtyard.
Jiang Xue asked Fu Dong to get a copy of The Strategies of the Warring States, and then she sat in the courtyard and started reading.
Lu Qiongshuang was dancing with his sword with great pleasure when he suddenly heard someone praising loudly.
"Your Highness, where did you hire this female guard? She's quite skilled! And pretty, too!"
Lu Qiongshuang stopped and looked at the person who came.
The handsome young man with red lips and white teeth was exactly the type of man she hated the most in her life.
Lu Qiongshuang rolled his eyes and slashed at him with his knife.
The man who came was Jiang Qibin. He was originally watching the girl dancing with a sword with great interest. He couldn't help but exclaim in admiration when he was excited. Why did this person come to chop at him instead?
Jiang Qibin took it with his sword, and the two started fighting. Lu Qiongshuang attacked fiercely, and his sword made a buzzing sound when he slashed it.
"Wow!" Jiang Qibin opened his mouth wide and shouted, "What a strong girl!"
Jiang Qibin dodged several times cleverly, but Lu Qiongshuang came at him like an overwhelming force. Jiang Qibin did not dare to really fight with the people around Jiang Xue, so he could only howl like a ghost.
"Your Highness! Tell her to stop!"
"You are such an unreasonable girl! Have I offended you in any way?"
"Your Highness, Your Highness!!! She's about to chop my butt!!!"
Jiang Xue was originally reading a book with great interest, but his howling distracted her from all thoughts. She could no longer endure it, so she grabbed the teacup and threw it out.
“It’s so noisy!”
"Stop it!"
