Chapter 13 Throwing feces
At night, after listening to Yan Chi's report, Ji Changqing's expression was indescribable.
She disguised herself as a man and went to Fanlou, and even asked some thugs to go to Ji Peiyuan's mistress's place to have sex?
What decent young lady would do such a thing?
Well, a decent young lady wouldn't run away to become a widow in someone else's family.
"Jin hired people to spread rumors in the red-light district, saying that the eldest lady was treating an illicit disease, intending to tarnish her reputation. That's why the lady took revenge."
Yan Chi added.
However, most of the prostitutes were afraid of their masters and did not dare to take it seriously. Only Qiao Zhenzhen believed it.
Baifu clapped his hands and cheered: "Tit for tat, what a treat! I'll hire some men someday to throw manure at the doorsteps of those censors."
This will save them from taking the salaries I confiscated from my house and cursing me.
Ji Changqing glanced at him sideways.
Baifu immediately stopped laughing: "Master, I was just saying it casually."
"Splash more times."
Ji Changqing's voice rang out.
"So they don't know who did it."
Momofuku: “Huh?”
Confused, he did as Ji Changqing instructed.
The censors who submitted memorials to criticize Ji Changqing every day found a large puddle of manure at the door of his house the day before. They thought that the night incense was poured out and the cart had overturned. They cursed a few times and asked the servants to clean it up.
The next morning when I went out, I saw the sewage again and realized that someone had done it on purpose.
After complaining to my colleagues, I found that not only my house was splashed with feces, but also the houses of other colleagues.
What these colleagues have in common is that they all love Ji Changqing.
“#@%&*!#*#…”
This time they cursed even more fiercely, dirty and unpleasantly.
He complained to the emperor with great resentment.
The emperor told Ji Changqing about this, and Ji Changqing smiled bitterly: "I am an honest man. They can't find fault with me, so they can only throw dirty water on me. Today they scold me for throwing feces at their doorstep, and tomorrow they will probably accuse me of stealing vegetables from their farm."
The emperor laughed out loud.
After laughing, he wiped his tears and said, "I'm sorry, my dear. You did something real, but you still have to bear the blame. I'm also very annoyed by these old men. If it weren't for the ancestral precepts left by Taizu, not to punish censors, I would have dragged them off and beheaded them long ago."
Ji Changqing: "They are just doing their duty. I don't blame them."
The emperor praised him, "My dear minister, you have a good character."
While the emperor and his ministers were chatting happily, Baifu was completely puzzled: "What is your purpose in doing this, sir? Don't you think the censors' scolding isn't harsh enough?"
Shi An, who had just returned from Wucheng investigating Feng Qingsui's household registration, knocked him on the back of the head and said, "Stupid! I just think they don't have enough variety in their scolding!"
Over and over again, they cursed me for abusing my power, ransacking my property too harshly, and being cold-blooded and ruthless.
Without the emperor's authorization, could I have killed so many people?
What’s the difference between scolding me and scolding the emperor?
"Only by truly scolding me can I share your worries."
Baifu: “…”
It’s too difficult to be an official in Beijing.
Feng Qingsui didn't know that she had inadvertently inspired Ji Changqing. After seeing Qiao Zhenzhen coming back, she was thinking about how to approach the Rongchang Marquis Mansion.
I didn't expect someone to give me a pillow just as I was dozing off.
Princess Shouyang invited her to her birthday party.
She carefully made a batch of face cream and took two boxes to the party.
Only those close to Princess Shouyang were invited to the birthday banquet, totaling six tables, including Wei, the wife of the Marquis of Rongchang.
Before coming, Feng Qingsui asked Qi and learned that Wei had been married for six years but still had no children.
When Princess Shouyang introduced Feng Qingsui to her friends and called her a miracle doctor, she noticed a strange look in Wei's eyes.
Therefore, she humbly said, "Princess, you are too kind. I only have some experience in dietary regulation, but I cannot be called a miracle doctor."
Then a thin lady asked with a smile, "If you are good at diet, could you teach me how to eat to gain weight?"
"I'll help Madam after the banquet."
Feng Qingsui responded.
After the banquet, while everyone was strolling through the princess's garden to digest their food, Feng Qingsui and the noblewoman sat alone in the waterside pavilion. After taking her pulse and examining her tongue, Feng Qingsui asked with a smile, "Madam, you usually like to eat sashimi or raw pickled fish, right?"
The lady was surprised and asked, "How did you know?"
"Sashimi and raw marinated fish are delicious and have a great taste, but they can easily lead to hidden dangers."
Feng Qingsui looked at the goldfish floating on the water and said.
"Fish, shrimp and snails contain parasites and worm eggs that are difficult to detect with the naked eye. Once eaten, they may parasitize the internal organs and even the brain and eyes."
The lady suddenly turned pale.
"P-parasite?"
"Things like roundworms, hookworms, and pinworms. Madam, you should have heard of them, right?"
The lady had naturally heard of this, and her expression became even uglier: "Is there something wrong with my stomach that's why I'm getting thinner?"
Feng Qingsui nodded: "You should have noticed some abnormalities, such as abdominal distension, abdominal pain, and anal itching..."
With every word she spoke, the lady's face turned paler.
"Don't be afraid," Feng Qingsui comforted him. "I'll prescribe a prescription for you. A few doses of the medicine will get rid of the worms. Just don't eat raw meat in the future."
The noble lady was as if granted amnesty: "Can they all be expelled?"
"able."
"That's great."
The lady's expression softened, and she looked around again, then warned, "Don't tell anyone about this."
"Don't worry."
Feng Qingsui asked his attendant for pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and wrote a prescription for the lady. The lady put it in her arms and went to chat with other women as if nothing had happened.
Wei had been keeping an eye on Feng Qingsui's movements. She knew that she had prescribed a prescription for the wife of Marquis Anyang, but she had not visited Feng Qingsui.
Just one case of Master Xuan was not enough to make her believe in Feng Qingsui's ability.
If the wife of Marquis Anyang could become more plump...
She glanced down at her round waist and it wasn't too late to look for Feng Qingsui again.
Feng Qingsui was not in a hurry either. The bait had already been thrown, so he was not worried that the fish would not take the bait.
After returning home and spending a peaceful half month with Qi, Wei indeed sent someone to invite her to the Rongchang Marquis Mansion to appreciate the chrysanthemums.
She finally stood in front of the gate of Rongchang Marquis Mansion.
She looked up at the gate tower that looked extremely cold, majestic and heavy against the backdrop of dark clouds. She lowered her head, concealed the thoughts in her eyes, and followed Wei's servants into the mansion through the corner gate with Wuhua.
After entering, he sat in the sedan chair for nearly a quarter of an hour before arriving at the gate of Wei's courtyard.
The courtyard is equipped with rockery, ponds, bridges, streams, pavilions and towers. The flower beds and both sides of the corridors are filled with chrysanthemums of various colors, in various shapes and colors, competing for splendor.
Wei was waiting in a small octagonal pavilion in the middle of the pond.
As Feng Qingsui followed his servants toward the small pavilion, he looked at the dark green pool water covered with water plants on both sides of the arch bridge, and the small and lovely face of the little girl flashed through his mind.
Xiao Yu, in which pond in the Rongchang Marquis Mansion did you drown?
The wind was very strong, but there was a screen in the pavilion and a charcoal stove under the round table, so there was not a trace of cold.
Wei wore a cross-collared jacket, a horse-faced skirt with gold-woven floral and bird patterns, and a round-necked green satin shirt with gold-woven floral patterns, which looked round and noble.
After exchanging pleasantries, she got straight to the point: "The wife of the Marquis of Anyang used your prescription and gained ten pounds in just two weeks. Can you help me lose twenty pounds in two weeks?"
The doctor said that her infertility was caused by obesity and that she would be able to get pregnant if she lost weight.
