for example.
Why did the master steal from the national treasury?
On a whim?
What happened after the master fell into the Forgotten River?
The master will definitely be fine, but where is he now?
What she couldn't understand the most was why her master went to the secret room where the medicinal herbs were kept when she went to the treasury. If her master needed any medicinal herbs, she could just ask for them...
etc!
Something suddenly flashed through my mind.
Zhuyue’s body stiffened.
A secret room where medicinal herbs are stored?
Medicinal herbs?
Medicinal herbs!
Somehow, a person flashed through Zhuyue's mind. The woman in red that the master wanted to investigate was Ling Jing, the third lady of the general's mansion! Could the secret room where the master kept the medicinal herbs be related to Ling Jing?
After all, others didn't know, but she knew it too well. Ling Jing and the woman in red were the same person! She was well versed in the art of medicine and poison. Of course, such a person needed medicinal materials!
This is Baili Feiyue from Huichun Hall.
The little medicine boy Xiao Mo was always paying attention to the movements in Jishidiang across the street. The people in Jishidiang did not expect that they would be bitten instead of harming others. However, the patient could not be admitted for sure, as he was obviously a dead person who was still breathing.
Isn't this destroying the reputation of Jishidiang?
The group of people seeking medical treatment were relentless, and after just a few visits, the patient died.
Upon discovering this fact, those who were seeking medical treatment started to make a scene on the spot, and soon attracted most of the people on the street to watch the fun.
Xiao Mo hurried to the backyard and saw Baili Feiyue fiddling with herbs. He shouted, "Miss Jing, there's a commotion at Jishitang across the street! Why don't you go out and take a look?"
Baili Feiyue added a medicine without even raising her head, "What's so good about it?"
“That’s true, but it’s rare to see Jishidiang across the street get humiliated. Those people are going to die in front of their door!”
Baili Feiyue sneered, "Kill him? They can't bear to do that. At most, they can extort money from him after he dies."
Although Baili Feiyue was not interested, Xiao Mo was young after all, so he kept reporting in and out.
"Miss Jing, the people from Jishidiang invited those troublemakers inside."
After a while, another person ran in, "Miss Jing, those people came out, and then they carried the dead person away."
When he came in again, his face was a little horrified, "Miss Jing, Doctor Chen from Jishidiang across the street is coming towards us angrily!"
Not long after Xiao Mo finished speaking, Chen Dafu's angry voice rang out from the hall outside, "What a Huichuntang!"
"What a despicable Huichuntang!"
"Come out here! Are you too guilty of hurting someone so much that you dare not come out?"
Xiao Mo had always been a little afraid of this fierce Doctor Chen, and looked at Baili Feiyue eagerly, "Miss Jing..."
"What are you afraid of? Can he eat you?"
She stood up slowly, flicked off the medicinal shavings on her clothes, and walked out with a smile, "If you want to eat, eat me."
"Ha!" Chen Dafu sneered when he saw Baili Feiyue appear, "What a great Huichuntang, what a great Third Miss Ling!"
"Well, Huichuntang and I are both fine, thank you for the compliment, Doctor Chen."
"I won't argue with you! Miss Ling San, you come from a famous family and you are still a girl, but how can you be so vicious and shameless! You can do such a dirty and unscrupulous thing!"
When the people who had come to watch the fun heard this, they all looked at Chen Dafu in confusion.
This street is usually sparsely populated and quite quiet.
Apart from a few medical clinics, there are only a few small vendors and tea stalls.
The people who gathered around now were basically the doctors and apprentices from the clinic, as well as some people who went to various clinics to see a doctor and get medicine.
Although Mr. Bian is a good doctor, he has always kept a low profile. Huichuntang is located on this street. In terms of scale, it is just a small clinic. It is not as grand as Jishitang, which is the largest clinic on this street.
Not only on this street, Jishidiang is a famous medical clinic even in the whole Kyoto.
Some people had heard the commotion at Huichuntang and Jishiditang before, but since they were medical disputes, everyone was used to it and didn’t take it seriously.
Seeing Chen Dafu in such a state, he couldn't help but become curious, "Doctor Chen, what happened?"
Chen Dafu snorted, "Then we should ask what Miss Ling San did! General Ling is a hero of our Dajing, and I admire and respect him. But even if she is General Ling's daughter, I want to ask for an explanation today! It would be best if I could ask General Ling if this is how he taught his daughter!"
Although Chen Dafu said a lot, he still hasn't said what the matter is.
But what he said was more explosive and cruel than anything else he had said.
General Ling's daughter...
Almost everyone thought of the rumors they had heard in the past two days.
It was said that Miss Ling Wu, who was so gentle and kind, so harmless that even an ant wouldn't have the heart to step on one, actually poisoned someone at a palace banquet to plot against her own sister...
It is said that Miss Ling San... eh? Isn't she the one in front of me? She, she...
Not only did she poison the wife of an imperial official, but she was also stripped in public by the Regent!
Although everyone had heard about the marriage granted to the regent, the common people did not take it seriously. Every year, someone granted a marriage to the regent, but who survived?
Not only did they not receive any benefits or protection, but their souls ended up in the underworld. Even those who were married to the regent had their entire families and mansions ruined.
So, there is no fear at all.
Instead, all kinds of eyes were turned to Baili Feiyue.
Chen Dafu was a shrewd man. When he saw this situation, he laughed smugly in his heart and said, "Little girl, you are still a little young to fight with me!"
Although Xiao Mo had only been with Baili Feiyue for a short time, he liked Miss Jing very much, who had no airs of a lady from a wealthy family.
Seeing that everyone was looking at her unkindly and whispering about Baili Feiyue, she couldn't help but speak out to protect her, "Doctor Chen, please don't talk nonsense. Miss Jing didn't do anything wrong!"
"Hehe, she didn't do it?" Chen Dafu's voice rose a little more. "Others come to seek medical treatment. It's ok that she doesn't know medical skills, but she also speaks nonsense! It's obvious that the person only has one breath left and even Hua Tuo can't save him, but she shamelessly says that she can cure him! If it's just that, you can cure it yourself at Huichuntang, but you say that my Jishitang can cure it!"
Chen Dafu faced the doctors standing in front of him and said, "Everyone, you are also medical practitioners. You should know that most ordinary people don't understand the medical principles at all. They heard that I can cure them, but they said that I didn't treat them, which delayed their relatives' treatment time. It was me who killed their relatives! I really can't stand this kind of dirty water!"
Those people felt the same way, "This is really too much..."
Some people also raised doubts, "According to the rumors these past two days, Miss Ling San can use poison. Medicine and poison have been inseparable since ancient times. If she can use poison, how can she not know medicine?"
"Not necessarily!" another person interrupted, "Some people don't know the slightest bit about medical skills or medical theory, and they specialize in learning some despicable things to poison people."
