Chapter 464 Romantic Affair
Song Jin presented the medical book to Mr. Jing.
After a few pleasantries, he stated his purpose.
Song Jin said, "I want to find a doctor with superb medical skills to compile a Chinese medicine handbook. Mr. Jing is a noble man with a kind heart and good medical skills, so he is very suitable. I came here today to invite you to participate."
“Who else did you invite?”
"You are the only one at the moment."
"..." Mr. Jing wanted to ask Song Jin, what made you say this in such a serious tone?
Song Jin said seriously, "Jifang will cover all the expenses during this period. As for the reward... Although it may sound vulgar to mention gold and silver, people still have to make a living. After the task is completed, each person will receive a reward of 1,000 taels."
"This is still a great good deed with immeasurable merits. I would like to thank Madam Song for giving me the honor to participate. You don't have to reward me. But before that, I still need to ask the master for instructions." Old Jing said kindly while stroking his beard, and then he made a few more suggestions.
All Song brocades are in line with this.
As long as Mr. Jing doesn't refuse, the matter will be settled.
Because most people who master a skill usually keep it secret. It is extremely rare for someone like Song Jin to make his ancestral medical book public and plan to promote medical skills among the people.
Song Jin chose Jing Lao to help because she trusted his medical skills and ethics, and he was also the best medical person she had ever met.
In his early years, Jing Lao worked as an imperial physician in the palace. Later, he was innocently implicated in a secret case in the harem and was almost secretly dealt with by Emperor Ming Cheng. It was Prince Rui who felt sorry for Jing Lao's medical skills and stepped forward to save him.
Mr. Jing is the court physician of the princess’s mansion.
If you want to compile a medical book, you must first ask your master for permission for such an important matter.
Qin Chi found out about it that afternoon and supported their move. "If you encounter any medical problems, you can go to the Imperial Hospital to find Doctor Zhuo. Or you can come to me."
"Thank you for your help, sir."
When Mr. Jing got the permission, he was surprised, as he needed a large number of cases and information.
Meng Qingrui came in with official documents and saw Mr. Jing walking out with a happy look on his face.
Glancing back at Elder Jing who was walking away, Meng Qingrui straightened his clothes and said, "Sir, did Elder Jing find a treasure? He looked so happy when he left."
"He got a great bargain."
Qin Chi spoke briefly and took the document handed over by Meng Qingrui.
As he looked over it.
Meng Qingrui sat aside and poured himself a cup of tea. "I heard a rumor today. It's about adults."
"What rumors?"
Qin Chi asked without even raising his head.
Meng Qingrui rolled his eyes, picked up the tea bowl and approached Qin Chi, whispering: "It is said outside that the master has a new beautiful woman, who is hiding in a courtyard in the princess's mansion, and no one can spy on her."
Qin Chi said coldly: "Nonsense."
"This matter has just spread. Do we want to clarify it?" Meng Qingrui guessed that the beauty should be Song Jin.
Qin Chi was distracted for a moment, "No need."
"Aren't you afraid that someone will find out about Jifang Pharmacy? If someone finds out about my sister-in-law, they might be afraid of you and not dare to have evil thoughts, but some people might also take the risk. You know..."
Meng Qingrui's concerns are not without reason.
He still remembers vividly the stunning glimpse he got when they first met.
After that, his family arranged several marriages for him. Every time he secretly went to meet the proposed marriage partner, he couldn't help but compare them with the others. Then he felt something was wrong, which is why he has not married yet.
Le Yan, who is the same age as him, has a son who can now help with cooking.
He didn't dare tell anyone about this.
It’s not that he has feelings for Song Jin, but his vision has been raised and he is not willing to compromise.
Qin Chi was silent for a while.
He called Qin Yi and asked him to arrange some more people to protect Song Jin.
Almost at the same time.
On the other side, Jifang Pharmacy.
Song Jin passed by a yard where medicinal herbs were drying.
I accidentally heard a few guys sitting by the well, washing herbs and gossiping.
When they were chatting excitedly, they forgot to lower their voices.
"Scholars have many minds and minds."
A fellow in a blue shirt said, "Look at the present, we only hear the new people laughing, but no one listens to the old people crying."
"That woman is said to be extremely beautiful. The scene of her riding a horse on the street that day attracted countless men. Now many people are asking about her background and someone has offered a reward!"
"Didn't they say that Lord Qin brought it back from the south?"
"Tsk, they showed up in the capital first. Lord Qin returned to the capital later... But, the two of them are not innocent."
"Hey, he's riding a horse, and he's holding her so tightly, it would be strange if he could say he was innocent, hehe..."
Several guys were chatting animatedly.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Song Jin was speechless for a while.
What are these rumors outside? Returning to the courtyard where he stayed, Song Jin looked at Mu Ting behind him and asked, "Do you know about this rumor?"
"I just heard about it a quarter of an hour ago. I didn't have time to tell the boss, but you heard it first." Mu Ting knew that the beauty in the rumor was Song Jin, so she was not too worried. "It was just made up by some busybodies. The boss doesn't need to worry too much. It will die down in a few days."
"Then wait a few days. If the rumors outside still haven't died down, tell me again." Song Jin thought that maybe someone was trying to deal with Qin Chi behind the scenes.
This rumor is not very friendly to Qin Chi.
Song Jin was not worried about anyone causing trouble.
Qin Chi is now in a high position and has great power. It would be undoubtedly a stupid monkey to jump out to oppose him at this time.
It was the monkey who was killed to scare the monkeys! Several days passed.
Song Jin stayed at home to recuperate, and would visit Jing Lao when he had time, and lend a hand if he could.
The rumors outside have died down.
The people were attracted by the news that the army was returning in triumph, and the storytellers kept talking about the heroic deeds that took place. Not many people talked about Qin Chi's erotic love affairs.
Song Jin suspected that Qin Chi had arranged this deliberately to quietly guide public discussion. She had used this trick before.
The only thing that upset Song Jin was that Qin Chi himself did not show up, but his presence was stronger than ever before.
I often have people deliver things to me.
From precious jewellery and rare tributes to a bowl of soup and fruit snacks, for example, if he thought the imperial kitchen cooked a good soup or dish yesterday, it would appear on Song Jin's table tomorrow.
Song Jin didn't see Qin Chi.
I couldn't even think of saying no.
I wrote a letter and asked someone to pass it to Qin Chi, but he continued to do as he pleased.
In the past two days, Song Jitao said that someone who looked like a servant of a wealthy family came to the neighborhood to inquire about the Jifang Medicine Store. Although he had let them fool him temporarily, some people with ulterior motives would continue to pay attention. This made Song Jin suspect that Qin Chi often sent things over, which attracted the attention of some people.
When this thought came to her mind, she wished Qin Chi would get as far away from her as possible.
"Boss, Lord Qin wants you to go to the princess's mansion now. Even the carriage is ready."
Mu Ting hurried over to report.
Song Jin frowned slightly, "Did you say what it was about?"
"The visitor didn't say anything."
"Then just say I'm busy and won't go." Song Jin replied without thinking.
She didn't know what Qin Chi wanted to do.
Just refuse it anyway!
