Chapter 183 Sickness
After washing his face, Song Jin sat in the dormitory to rest.
Just sat there for a while.
He took out another booklet and started flipping through it. It contained detailed information about the female doctor from the Imperial Hospital and the Liu family.
This is exactly the purpose of Song Jin's trip.
Liu Jianfang, seventeen years old, is still unmarried.
Where this person learned the Song family's medicinal material preparation techniques from remains a mystery.
People who were close to her didn't find out anything.
I only know that there was a period of time.
Liu Jianfang's skills in preparing medicinal materials improved by leaps and bounds, and no one doubted it.
I just thought it was a family tradition.
According to the investigation, Liu Jianfang does not pose any threat, but the Liu family she belongs to should not be underestimated.
In fact, the Liu family is not a family of medicine with deep roots. They have only been rich for three generations. Three generations ago, they were all peasants.
The Liu family is the most feared.
It was Liu Bingzheng who became the director of the Imperial Medical Service.
This man was originally a farm boy. When he was young, he learned medicine from a barefoot doctor. Later, the barefoot doctor died. He then went to the town's clinic to work as a medicine boy. He became a disciple of the doctor in the clinic and was recommended by someone to work as a doctor in the Imperial Medical Bureau.
Climb up step by step.
Not only that, he also let his children and grandchildren study medicine, and trained both boys and girls together.
There are more than a dozen female doctors among them, and each of them is doing well and visiting wealthy families.
Some wives and daughters of wealthy families, when they have medical problems, are reluctant to ask male doctors to treat them due to the concerns of their reputation, but they don't have to worry about it if they ask female doctors to treat them.
Therefore, Liu's female doctor was quite popular.
The connections accumulated over decades are not that simple.
Song Jin never looks down on anyone.
For example, according to what we found, Liu Jianfang's interpersonal relationships are very simple, and he doesn't have many contacts on a daily basis.
How to approach her?
He closed his eyes and thought, and gradually fell asleep.
The green curtain hangs lightly, and the pearl curtain moves slightly.
Qin Chi walked into the dormitory with light steps.
There is a faint fragrance wafting from the incense burner in the room.
The beauty lay gracefully on the mahogany carved bed. After washing her face without any disguise, her face looked like a painting with exquisite craftsmanship.
The peony at the bedside is blooming quietly, as if guarding the beautiful woman's peaceful sleep.
Her beauty needs no words.
Just one glance is enough to make people mesmerized.
Qin Chi stood quietly in front of the bed and watched, indulging in it unscrupulously, his eyes were deep and obscure, hiding a possessive desire that even he himself was unaware of.
a long time.
He reached out and gently picked up the booklet.
After taking a look at the content, I knew what she was thinking before going to bed.
He just lifted up his skirt and sat on the edge of the bed.
The beauty was awakened and suddenly opened her eyes. It only took a blink of an eye for her to go from drowsiness to clarity.
"Are you done with your work, sir?"
Song Jin propped himself up and sat up.
Qin Chi tapped her forehead with his fingertips, smiling lovingly, "I'll come and call you for dinner."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Song Jin put on his shoes, stood up, and followed Qin Chi out.
Hot meals have been served in the main hall.
There were only two sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table, which were obviously only for the couple. No one else's food was here.
"The people in the house are still the same, but there is an extra cook and a laundry woman. When you have time, you can ask them to come over and introduce themselves to the family." Qin Chi's voice was clear and gentle.
Song Jin relaxed unconsciously after hearing this.
It took more than half a month of travel.
As expected, Qin Chi was sick when he woke up the next day.
I asked a doctor to come and take my pulse, prescribe three days' worth of medicine and then leave.
Song Jin took good care of her.
Qin Chi was lying on the bed, looking a bit sick. "My lady, don't worry. My illness was supposed to happen, so it happened."
Song Jin was speechless after hearing this.
She watched him drink a bowl of black medicine, took the bowl from his hand, and then asked, "Then may I ask, sir, when will you recover from this illness?"
"When it's time to get better, it will get better."
This answer is as good as saying nothing.
Song Jin glanced at him with a smile, "I just want to say that my husband is a person who knows how to talk nonsense, and I have learned it too. I didn't know how to do it before."
"Oh!"
Qin Chi laughed.
The laughter was clear and joyful.
The illness did not last until early May, when the patient gradually recovered.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Just as Qin Chi said, if a sick person does not get sick after a long journey, people will be suspicious.
When they came over.
The neighbors around them all came to inquire about them openly or secretly. It’s not that they have any ulterior motives, but that’s the current trend.
New neighbors moved in.
The neighbors always ask around.
Some people even want to dig out the other party's ancestors.
This is when Uncle Hong came into play.
It was announced to the public that the old owner sold the house to a scholar from Huizhou, and the new owner was a scholar who specially brought his wife to Beijing, mainly for the purpose of studying.
The scholar is of rather weak physique.
I fell ill the second day after arriving here.
After this talk, people around finally accepted it. In the capital, scholars are still highly respected.
Live with proper etiquette.
Song Jin made some Huizhou local cakes and sent them to his neighbors one by one.
The surrounding neighbors also responded in a friendly manner.
Of course, Song Jin deliberately put on makeup when she appeared in public.
Others wear makeup to look good.
Song Jin puts on makeup to suppress her beauty.
Her appearance was reduced to only two or three points, and the clothes she wore when going out were mostly simple and loose.
In the eyes of outsiders, she is at most pretty, with a good personality and graceful manners.
In the study.
Qin Chi sat upright at the table.
He was secretly meeting with a subordinate, who was the head in charge of intelligence in the capital, and to the outside world, the manager of Shun'an Commercial Bank in the capital.
"Young Master, there is indeed someone behind the Liu family, but we haven't found out yet." The man said ashamedly.
After Qin Chi heard this, he was silent for a while, and then asked again: "Do the Liu family and the Yang family have any dealings?"
"I checked, no."
"Not at all?"
"The two families have never been related by marriage, and they have no daily contact. The imperial physician that the Yang family is familiar with is not from the Liu family."
"So clean?"
Qin Chi's fingers tapped the tabletop rhythmically, as if he was deep in thought. "But why do I always feel like there's something wrong?"
"Sir, do you suspect that the man behind Liu Bingzheng is Yang Gelao?"
"It's just a suspicion, there's no evidence. You can investigate along this line first."
While claiming to be ill, Qin Chi was actually not idle. He took the opportunity to reorganize and consolidate the forces in the capital, including the people given to him by Helian Pu.
Although Qin Chi was not in the capital before.
What happened in the capital was clear as day.
Moreover, after meeting Helian Pu.
Helian Pu intended to train him and also explained to him the relationships between various forces in the capital.
There was an 80% chance that there was something fishy going on between the Liu and Yang families; Qin Chi was certain of that; all he lacked was a piece of evidence.
