At noon on the third day, Jiuer and his group arrived in Rong County.
After arriving in Rong County, Master Chu parted ways with Jiuer and his group.
It takes half a day to get from Rong County to the manor that Wang Xiaojin mentioned. When Jiu'er and Yue'er were full and heading to the manor, Wang Xiaojin, who had already arrived, was waiting for someone for the third time under the pretext of waiting.
The maid who followed Wang Xiaojin cast a pair of inverted triangle eyes at Wang Xiaojin, "Second Miss, do you despise the doctor arranged by Madam? Why did you ask someone to go to Rong County to invite one? Rong County is so small, how can the doctors here compare to the one Madam invited from Kyoto for Aunt Lin?"
"Of course the doctor my mother hired is the best. But it's rare for me to come to see my aunt, so I always thought about hiring a few more doctors to see my aunt."
The old woman's inquiring gaze still fell on her.
Ever since Wang Xiaojin took the first step to find Prime Minister Wang with the help of Jiuer, she has grown at an unprecedented speed in the past few days.
Even though she was being stared at by the old woman, she didn't look nervous or guilty at all. However, when Wang Xiaojin saw Jiu'er vaguely appearing, the light in her eyes was almost hidden.
Jiuer was walking towards this side lazily, carrying a sign that said "Rejuvenation Master" and dressed like a vagrant traveling doctor.
"Second Miss, is that the doctor you hired?" The old woman's eyes and tone were filled with indescribable disgust.
Wang Xiaojin said calmly, "No, but now that you mentioned it, I think it's fate that we meet. I can also ask this quack doctor to take a look together."
"Hehehe," the old woman couldn't help but sneer, despising her in her heart. She was indeed raised by her aunt, and she even looked down on such a dishonest quack doctor. "Second Miss, if you want to fulfill your filial duty, it's not a problem."
She would not stop it. The lowly status of Aunt Lin and her daughter were a perfect match for this despicable and charlatan itinerant doctor!
Jiuer was almost here, but she didn't even look at Wang Xiaojin and the others and just walked straight over.
Wang Xiaojin cooperated perfectly and stepped forward quickly, "Please keep this gentleman."
Jiuer looked at her impatiently, "What's the matter?"
Wang Xiaojin was extremely sincere, "Is this gentleman a traveling doctor?"
"So what? Although I am a traveling doctor, I am not someone who can be hired by just anyone. I am not willing to treat everyone either."
Upon hearing this, the old woman was just waiting to see the joke.
It turned out to be a trick of a liar who pretends to be mysterious.
Wang Xiaojin begged her more sincerely, asking her to look after her aunt. Jiuer then reluctantly agreed.
The two of them successfully deceived the old woman with this play. She didn't take Jiuer, who looked unpresentable after her disguise, seriously at all.
At this time, the three doctors Wang Xiaojin had invited from the county town also arrived. The mother-in-law turned her attention to the three doctors, trying to find out if there was anything fishy going on.
After entering the manor, each doctor took Aunt Lin's pulse, and the diagnosis results were similar to those of the doctors arranged by the Prime Minister's wife.
The old woman said sarcastically, "Oh, those who know this know that you are filial. Those who don't know would think that you are worried about the doctors hired by our wife. What a coincidence, the doctors you hired yourself said the same thing as the doctors hired by our wife."
It seems that the lady's people in the manor must have seen the little girl going to ask for a doctor, so they secretly arranged for the doctor to be invited by the girl!
But even if she doesn't take care of it, it doesn't matter. Madam has said that ordinary doctors will diagnose Aunt Lin's "illness" as these doctors say.
Wang Xiaojin quickly apologized, "I definitely don't have that idea. Thank you for getting medicine for my aunt..."
Seeing that everything was fine and such an important matter as prescribing medicine was handed over to me, it would be easy for me to do some tricks.
"You must be grateful for Madam's kindness!" The old woman felt relieved and turned to leave.
As for Jiuer who was still sitting lazily in the room, she didn't think anything could happen and was too lazy to even keep an eye on her.
After Wang Xiaojin confirmed that there was no one outside, "Ajiu..."
Jiuer also stood up and walked over.
Aunt Lin was in a coma at the moment, and Jiuer took her pulse.
Wang Xiaojin said, "My mother has been prone to dizziness since half a year ago, and she has been sleeping frequently recently. But when she wakes up, she is still in good spirits..."
Jiuer checked several other parts of Aunt Lin's body and said, "Her physical condition is a little weak. It should be caused by years of excessive thinking and insufficient nutrition. But this is not the reason why your mother is like this."
Wang Xiaojin became nervous instantly.
Jiuer said, "Strictly speaking, your mother didn't have any strange serious illness, but was poisoned. This kind of poison will slowly make people lose their vitality, until two or three years later, they will appear to have a 'normal death'. The power of this poison is not that it can slowly kill people, but that after death, people become immortals in the world, and there is no trace of anything from the bodies of people who died of poisoning."
Wang Xiaojin staggered and her face turned pale.
Jiuer sighed, "The Prime Minister's wife is so capable. This kind of poison is not easy to find. Not only did she find it, but the three doctors you randomly found in Rong County also lied with their eyes open at the same time."
There was not a trace of blood left on Wang Xiaojin's face, and his whole body was shaking violently.
It was an extreme fear and dread.
Jiuer turned around and patted her hands with eyes curved, "Hey, don't be so scared. This poison is not difficult. I can save your mother~"
Wang Xiaojin's eyes turned red and she was about to kneel down.
Jiuer stretched out her hand to stop him, "I told you, you don't have to thank me so much. You and I just get what we need from each other, and I am also using you."
Wang Xiaojin was speechless. She bit her lips, and shook her head with red eyes.
Jiuer said, "I asked Yue'er to park the carriage in a forest a mile away and wait for me. The carriage contains various medicinal herbs I brought. What a coincidence, there are many herbs for detoxification and health care. I will prepare enough medicine and send it to you later."
"Ajiu, I'll go with you!" Wang Xiaojin was finally able to speak.
"That won't work. Later, in front of that old woman, give me some silver. I'll go get it. If I bring it to you, the old woman and the others won't be suspicious. It will be different if you go."
Wang Xiaojin thought of something, with anger and fear in her eyes, "Ajiu, are you saying..."
"You're right. We can't let the Prime Minister's wife know in advance that your mother's poison can be cured. So I will prescribe you a medicine that will make your aunt's face look increasingly 'worse' before the poison is cured and her body is healed. We have to cure this poison without letting anyone know."
…
Not long after, Wang Xiaojin gave Jiuer some silver in front of the old woman.
After Jiuer said a few words that sounded like a con man's trick, she took the silver and walked away.
The old woman sneered again, "Second Miss, how can you believe what this quack doctor says? Not only does he not prescribe medicine, he also said he would go to get the medicine himself. And you really gave him the money for the medicine. Haha, he will never come back."
"Mammy, I just felt sorry for him, so I gave it to him as a kind act."
"Oh." The old woman was too lazy to say more to her.
The old woman didn't expect that more than half an hour later, the fraudulent traveling doctor would slowly come back carrying a bunch of medicine bags!
The old woman made an excuse to check, but when she saw that the medicine bag contained only some common medicinal materials, and they were the worst quality scraps, she sneered in her heart again.
No doubt at all.
Jiuer said calmly, "Miss Wang, I'll say it again, you have to take my medicine, and you are not allowed to take any other medicine. Otherwise, I will return the money to you, but I will take the medicine away!"
Wang Xiaojin immediately cooperated and made an embarrassed expression, "This..." and looked at the old woman again.
The old woman smiled with a fake smile, "Since the Second Miss believes in this miracle doctor so much, why not give Aunt Lin some of his medicine?"
It would also prevent those good medicines from being wasted on people like Aunt Lin!
Moreover, as long as the second young lady chose the medicine from the traveling doctor of unknown origin, if Aunt Lin's health attracted other people's attention, she could find someone to be the scapegoat!
Wang Xiaojin was embarrassed for a while, but finally, under Jiuer's weird temper, she had to reluctantly agree to this request.
After Jiuer left, the old woman even personally supervised and watched Wang Xiaojin boil the medicine given by Jiuer for Aunt Lin and fed it to Aunt Lin.
That night, when Aunt Lin woke up, Wang Xiaojin explained the details to her and told her what to do in the future. The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried without mentioning any of these words.
The next day.
Wang Xiaojin had to leave.
Because the banquet at the Princess's Mansion will be held in four days, the return journey will take another three days.
When Wang Xiaojin and his party's carriage passed through Rong County, they saw Jiuer, a traveling doctor, being beaten out by a short man.
The man was still cursing and calling him a liar.
Next, according to what Jiuer and Wang Xiaojin had agreed upon before, Wang Xiaojin couldn't bear it and came forward to save Jiuer.
Jiuer confessed that she had lied to her yesterday, thanked her for saving her life, and asked Wang Xiaojin to take her in.
When Wang Xiaojin embarrassed her that a girl could not take in a man, Jiuer washed her face, let down her hair, and revealed her disguised appearance as a daughter.
It was natural for Jiuer to "follow" Wang Xiaojin.
The old woman thought it was unlucky to ride in the same carriage with a down-and-out swindler and a wild girl, so she took a carriage of her own.
Three days later, Jiuer followed Wang Xiaojin directly back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Let’s talk about the seven days that Jiuer was away from Kyoto.
At first, after the Su Mansion's secret guards reported that Su Jingxing had been talked about, the secret guards stopped doing such stupid things.
But the next day, the third day, the fourth day...
There was no movement outside the Su residence for several days. On the sixth day, Su Jingxing could not concentrate on painting the plum blossom painting on his desk.
On the seventh day, which was the night when Jiuer and the others returned to Kyoto.
Su Jingxing called the secret guards.
"Go check the girl's recent whereabouts."
The secret guards didn't react at first.
"The master is saying..." When Su Jingxing glanced at him indifferently, the secret guard almost bit his tongue because of what he thought of.
"Yes, I understand!"
But my heart was full of surprise.
So that girl in green is really special?
