Chapter 61



After hearing what County Magistrate Yao said, Doctor Jiang Yu took the pulse of County Magistrate Ankang.

After a moment, he said to the couple, "Don't worry, Madam is not seriously ill. The previous poison has been cleared. Now you just need to take good care of the baby. In the early stages of pregnancy, remember not to overwork, be careful not to eat cold or irritating foods, keep a good mood, and rest well."

Yao County Ma was overjoyed and nodded in agreement. Then he took out another ingot and said, "Thank you, Doctor Jiang. This is a little gift from me."

But Doctor Jiang Yu shook his hands repeatedly and said firmly, "Sir, please take it back. You have already paid the previous consultation fee. I did not prescribe medicine for you today. It's just a few simple words. Don't be so polite."

However, Yao County Ma insisted on giving it, "If there is no doctor, there will be no child for us. Just consider it as me giving it on behalf of the child. Doctor, just take it."

When he said this, Doctor Jiang Yu looked at him with a strange look, "Sir, you can't say this casually, this child is yours, it has nothing to do with others."

"Pfft..."

When he said this, Yan Shu almost laughed out loud.

The Lord of Ankang County also smiled through the veil and said, "My husband made a slip of the tongue and made the doctor laugh. But this silver is indeed a little gift from us. If the doctor does not accept it, we will feel bad."

Doctor Jiang Yu then said, "If you two really feel bad, why not donate the silver to those poor people."

Seeing his insistence, the Lord of Ankang County nodded and said, "Okay, then we will donate some silver to the porridge factory another day in the name of the doctor."

Doctor Jiang nodded, "Thank you, madam."

The couple stood up and said goodbye and walked out.

The room was clean, Yuwen Lan came to Doctor Jiang, but before he could speak, he saw the other party asked him directly, "Is your sex life normal now?"

Yuwen Lan, "..."

This doctor also has a good memory.

Forget it. Yan Shu knew it in her heart anyway, so there was no need to play dumb. He nodded and said, "After the doctor's skillful treatment, everything is normal. It's just that I'm not pregnant yet, so I don't know if there's something wrong with me."

Doctor Jiang nodded and motioned for him to stretch out his hand and feel his pulse.

Not long after, he said, "Judging from the pulse, the husband should have recovered. Don't be too anxious about pregnancy. When the time comes, it will happen naturally. But..."

He paused, and people couldn't help but get nervous. Yuwen Lan asked hurriedly, "But what?"

Doctor Jiang coughed, "But, you still have to be a little restrained at night. Excessive indulgence will also affect Yuan Yang."

Yuwen Lan, "..."

Yan Shu, "..."

- Who would have thought that the word "indulgence" would one day be used to describe the emperor, cough.

Yuwen Lan, "???"

What does this mean?

Why can't it be used on him?

He wanted to discuss this topic with her, but there were outsiders around.

Yuwen Lan had to respond to Doctor Jiang and get up.

——Looking at the situation just now, this guy won’t accept the medical fee, so it’s better not to bother him and let him keep it in his salary.

But at this moment, a loud roar came from outside the door, "Where did the thief run away!"

Huh?

A thief? ? ?

The three people in the room were stunned for a few seconds, and then they hurried out of the room at the same time.

When the three people came to the street outside the Jiang residence, they saw that the county horse Yao Junliang, who had just left, was grabbing the collar of a thin man with one hand, with an angry look on his face.

Needless to say, the loud shout just

now came from Yao County Horse. And with this shout, the neighbors near Jiang's house also came out to check, and the surroundings were full of people for a while.

Seeing this, Doctor Jiang stepped forward and asked, "What happened?"

County Magistrate Yao said, "This thief climbed over the wall and broke into the house in broad daylight. If I hadn't just noticed it, he would have almost run away."

Then he pointed to a house to the west of Jiang's house and asked, "Whose house is that? The thief just jumped down from the wall of that house. Is the owner here? Go back and check if anything is missing."

Upon hearing this, a woman who was holding a child in the crowd was immediately startled and said, "Isn't that my home? Please, Sister Jiang, help me hold Ah Sheng. I'll go back and check."

Then she handed the baby in her arms to Doctor Jiang's wife, Mrs. He, and hurried home to check.

However, not long after, he ran back and said, "Nothing seems to be missing from my house. My money and jewelry are still there."

Everyone was stunned.

The thin man who was being grabbed by Yao County Horse said, "It's unfair. I just accidentally took the wrong road just now. I'm really not a thief!"

Yao County Horse snorted, "Took the wrong road? Accidentally walked into someone else's house? And jumped down from the wall? Hurry up and tell me, what are you doing here?"

Seeing this scene, Yan Shu also felt strange and asked the system, [Is this man a thief?]

System, [He is really not a thief, but he is more hateful than a thief. He was sent by others to frame Dr. Jiang.]

Frame Dr. Jiang?

Yan Shu was startled, but she heard Yuwen Lan and Yao Xianma, who had been watching, said, "Why not check if he has any stolen goods?"

Of course, the voice had changed, so Yao Xianma didn't hear it.

Yao Xianma's attention was on the thief at this time. Hearing this, he said yes and immediately asked the attendants to search the thief.

After a careful search, they really didn't find any valuables on this person.

However, there was a paper bag.

Yes, it was just like the jute paper bag used to wrap medicine in the medicine shop, tied with straw ropes, and it smelled like medicine.

It looked like a medicine bag.

Seeing this, Doctor Jiang was stunned. He hurriedly took the paper bag, opened it, picked up the things inside, and said to the woman who had just run home to check her belongings, "Mrs. Huang, isn't this the medicine I just prescribed for Ah Sheng?"

Mrs. Huang looked surprised and said, "No, the medicine is still on my stove. I'm going out to get some firewood so that I can boil it for Ah Sheng when I get home."

Doctor Jiang shook his head and said, "Go and get the medicine on your stove."

Mrs. Huang had no choice but to agree and went back home.

Not long after, she ran out with another medicine bag and said to Doctor Jiang, "Here I am, Doctor Jiang, look, isn't this the medicine you just prescribed?"

Doctor Jiang took the medicine bag and opened it to see, but in a moment, he frowned and said, "No, the medicine has been swapped!"

What?

Everyone present was stunned. How could the medicine be swapped?

Doctor Jiang was busy picking out the herbs in the second paper package and said to Mrs. Huang, "Look, this is Plantago seed, this is White Peony Root, and this is Phellodendron. Ah Sheng is suffering from a cold. I just prescribed a prescription to dispel the cold, but these herbs are all very cold. If Ah Sheng drinks them, his condition will definitely become more serious, and he may even have diarrhea and loss of strength. The consequences will be serious!"

"What?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Mrs. Huang immediately rushed to the thief and questioned, "I have no grudges against you, why do you want to harm our Ah Sheng like this?"

Yan Shu had already understood that this was a trick to frame Doctor Jiang.

——The medicine he prescribed was switched, and after the patient drank it, not only would the condition not be relieved, but even more serious consequences would occur, in order to discredit Doctor Jiang’s reputation…

Oh, this method was exactly the same as when he framed Doctor Xun!

At this time, she didn’t need the system to prompt her, she also guessed who was behind it!

She was angry and was about to tell the emperor. Before she could open her mouth, she saw the emperor said to Doctor Jiang, "I'm afraid this man's target is you. This matter is very serious. I suggest you report it to the authorities as soon as possible."

As soon as this was said, Yao County Ma nodded and said, "Yes, this thief is probably trying to frame you, doctor. Today I happen to be free, so I will accompany you to Jingzhao Prefecture!"

Then he ordered his followers to take the thief away, and then came to the carriage and explained to his wife, Ankang County Lord.

Ankang County Lord expressed his understanding, told the driver, and left first.

Then, Yao County Ma also accompanied Doctor Jiang to Jingzhao Prefecture, and did not forget to ask someone to grab the thief's clothes along the way.

The onlookers expressed their anger and went home.

Yan Shu and Yuwen Lan also boarded the carriage and returned to the palace.

——Today they had originally planned to go shopping in the market and eat some delicious food.

However, in this situation, Yan Shu could not eat anything.

She was now very angry and just wanted to expose the true face of Zhang Shengkang, the chief judge of the Imperial Hospital, to the emperor.

While the wheels were rolling, she said, "Your Majesty, do you still remember what I told you about the story of the court physician who was ungrateful, betrayed his teacher and destroyed his ancestors?"

Yuwen Lan hummed, "Remember."

Then he deliberately asked, "That one also has a prototype?"

Yan Shu nodded and said, "Yes, the prototype of the court physician is actually Zhang Shengkang, the chief judge of the Imperial Hospital."

Yuwen Lan showed some surprise at the right time, frowning. "It's him?"

She nodded and said, "Yes, it's him, and Doctor Jiang Yu is the son of the miracle doctor who was angered to death by him."

Yuwen Lan was surprised again, frowning and said, "So that's the case? No wonder Doctor Jiang Yu's medical skills are so great."

Yan Shu nodded again and said, "Zhang Shengkang is very jealous, and he is the mastermind behind the framing of Doctor Jiang Yu today."

Yuwen Lan also guessed this.

- Not to mention that this method is exactly the same as when Zhang Shengkang framed his master, just looking at Doctor Jiang Yu's open-minded and generous personality, I guess he would not have any other enemies except Zhang Shengkang.

But Yan Shu said, "But I think Zhang Shengkang framed Dr. Jiang Yu today, not necessarily because he knew Dr. Jiang Yu's true identity. It is very likely that he was just jealous and wanted to drive him out of the Imperial Hospital."

Yuwen Lan raised his eyebrows, "Why do you say that?"

Yan Shu narrowed her eyes and said in a sophisticated tone, "It's very simple. After all, Dr. Jiang Yu has changed his identity now. With Zhang Shengkang's scheming, if he knew this, he would definitely report Dr. Jiang Yu's identity to the court directly. Isn't this easier than him doing something dirty to harm people?"

"Indeed."

Yuwen Lan nodded, then raised his eyebrows to look at her, "My beloved concubine's mind is so meticulous."

Yan Shu smiled humbly, "I dare not, this is just the basic quality of a melon eater."

Tsk, you know, many of the melons she has eaten over the years only had some simple information, and it was all thanks to her careful reasoning that she was able to eat the whole thing in the end. She developed this skill over time.

Of course, she would occasionally make mistakes, such as discovering that she had already been exposed to the emperor's eyes two days ago...

However, after she finished speaking, she frowned and said, "I still want to publish the story and make the man's hypocritical face known to the public. Now I'm afraid I have to hide the identity of Jiang Yuyi, otherwise I'm afraid it will bring him trouble."

But Yuwen Lan said, "Don't worry about the story first, let's see how Jingzhao Prefecture investigates the case."

Yan Shu nodded and said, "That's right."

Today, in the public eye, there are witnesses and physical evidence, and Yao Xianma personally accompanied Jiang Yuyi to the Jingzhao Prefecture government office. Presumably, the thief can't escape.

Now it depends on when Zhang Shengkang will be confessed.

So, when she returns to the palace, Yan Shu will be waiting for the latest news from the system.

It was already night, and it was not until the next morning that the system sent any news -

[The latest news, Zhang Shengkang's apprentice came out to take the blame for him.]

What?

Yan Shu was stunned, [Apprentice? Zhang Shengkang has an apprentice?]

The system, [Of course he has, he is the judge of the Imperial Hospital after all, and there are countless people who want to curry favor with him over the years, so he took in many apprentices. However, unlike other masters who are devoted to teaching skills, he took in apprentices completely for the purpose of expanding his interests. Either he asked these people to open a pharmacy in the city to make money for him, or they just worked as his lackeys.]

Yan Shu understood, and asked again, [Then how did his apprentice take the blame for him?]

System, [Very simple. First of all, the thief was originally instructed by this apprentice. After the severe torture in Jingzhao Prefecture yesterday, the thief hired someone to hire him. Jingzhao Prefecture also questioned this apprentice to the government office and found that this apprentice happened to open a clinic nearby. Because Doctor Jiang Yu treated the neighbors, he was good and cheap, and often did not charge money for those with family difficulties. As a result, more and more people came to him for treatment. Wouldn't it affect the business of the clinic? This apprentice had sufficient motives and reasons, and insisted that he did it, so Jingzhao Prefecture closed the case. ]

Yan Shu, [...That's right. ]

Tsk, the business-stealing argument is indeed very convincing. After all, except for her and the emperor, no one else knew about the grudge between Doctor Jiang Yu and Zhang Shengkang.

Besides, Zhang Shengkang was so good at covering up, and he looked so virtuous and respected, who could possibly think of him?

System, [Also, according to the current law, this matter is not a capital crime, and the apprentice will at most serve a few years in prison and be beaten a few times before being released. He still has a wife and children, and he won't cut off his financial resources for this, not to mention that Zhang Shengkang will definitely give him a large sum of money as compensation. ]

Yan Shu sighed, thinking that this old thief Zhang was really cunning.

At this time in the Qianming Palace, Yuwen Lan had the same idea as Yan Shu after listening to the report from the Jingzhao Prefecture.

Zhang Shengkang has been running the Imperial Hospital for more than 20 years, and his mind is so deep, it seems that just this one thing can't touch him at all.

Moreover, even if Yan Shu made the incident public, he would still be able to get away with it.

- Let alone other things, it was an old story that happened more than 20 years ago, and there are very few people who know about it now, so where can he get the real evidence?

In this case, he could just say it was slander if he let the public opinion out.

And I'm afraid the Queen Mother would protect him.

But at this moment, Fu Hai came in and reported, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother asked you to move to Ci'an Palace, saying that she has something to discuss with you."

Yuwen Lan paused.

What a coincidence?

He hummed, got up and walked out of the palace gate to Ci'an Palace.

When he arrived at the place, Yuwen Lan saw that in addition to the Queen Mother, there was also Zhang Shengkang in the palace.

At this time, the man lowered his head, with a serious face, as if something big had happened.

He took a quick look, greeted the Queen Mother, and sat down on the warm couch.

But the Queen Mother said, "Doctor Zhang just came to me and said he wanted to apologize to me and Your Majesty, so I invite Your Majesty to come and listen."

Yuwen Lan said "Oh" and looked at Zhang Shengkang, "What crime has Doctor Zhang committed?"

But Zhang Shengkang immediately knelt down and said, "I am a bad teacher. One of my apprentices, because of poor business, framed other doctors and attempted to destroy his reputation, causing the patient's life to be ignored. After hearing the news from Jingzhao Prefecture this morning, I felt deeply guilty and ashamed, so I came here to apologize to Your Majesty and the Queen Mother. Although I was not aware of this matter, the culprit was my apprentice after all. I am ashamed of the trust of Your Majesty and the Queen Mother, and I earnestly ask you to punish me."

His words were very sincere, as if he was indeed an upright and selfless doctor.

Hearing this, the Queen Mother said, "It sounds like this disciple is really hateful! As a teacher, you really didn't teach him well, and you have a heavy responsibility."

Zhang Shengkang bowed his head and said yes.

Then, the Queen Mother changed her tone and said, "However, I think you are serving me in the palace all day long, and you are also responsible for the affairs of the Imperial Hospital. You are also too busy, so I can't blame you completely. I will spare you this time."

Then she looked at Yuwen Lan and said, "What do you think, Your Majesty?"

In this situation, what else can Yuwen Lan say?

The Queen Mother intends to protect him, and this man's kung fu is indeed good.

He said, "Your Majesty is magnanimous, but this matter has caused quite a stir in the city. Many people already know about their master-disciple relationship. If we do not hold them accountable, I am afraid that we will not be able to explain it to the outside world

. Let's put it this way," he looked at Zhang Shengkang again and said, "After all, this matter concerns the safety of patients and has a negative impact. The man's clinic will be closed immediately and he will be severely punished. You will be fined half a year's salary and demoted by half a grade. In the future, you must be strict with yourself and your subordinates."

Zhang Shengkang kowtowed in response.

The empress dowager also nodded and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

~~

After the emperor left Ci'an Palace, Yan Shu also ate the melon with the system in her own palace.

Needless to say, it was naturally unpleasant that she could not touch Zhang Shengkang this time.

She frowned and said, "In the past, the Queen Mother was jealous of evil, so why is she so protective of Zhang Shengkang this time?"

System, "After all, Zhang Shengkang is the Queen Mother's eunuch. When the Queen Mother lost her son, she was extremely depressed and almost got seriously ill. It was Zhang Shengkang who did his best to save her. And the fact that Zhang Shengkang can be a judge today is entirely due to the Queen Mother's promotion. Since the Emperor came to power, the Queen Mother has lost many people one after another, especially now that the Cheng'en Mansion is basically useless. The Queen Mother will definitely keep as many as she can. "

What's more, Zhang Shengkang has been in charge of her health all these years. When she has a headache, only Zhang Shengkang can cure it. 】

Yan Shu said anxiously,【That was because there were no better people in the past. Now that Dr. Jiang Yu’s medical skills are so outstanding, he even saved the little girl from the Ni family. The Queen Mother also saw it with her own eyes. Why can’t Dr. Jiang Yu be replaced to serve her?】

System,【Who can the Queen Mother trust? Moreover, in the eyes of the Queen Mother, this time it is indeed not related to Zhang Shengkang. Zhang Shengkang is a good doctor. As long as he is loyal to her and is useful to her, she will definitely protect him.】

Yan Shu, "..."

Alas, although she understands the truth, it still makes people unhappy.

After thinking about it, she picked up the pen and decided to write a new storybook.

She didn't believe it. There are really seams in the world that can't be repaired.

No matter how much the Queen Mother trusts, if she knows that the people around her are ruthless, she will always feel resentful and gradually dislike them.

~~

For several days, the Queen Mother was also in a heavy mood.

While there was no one in the palace, Nanny Zhuang stepped forward and advised, "Your Highness, you don't talk much since Madam Mu returned to Mingzhou." The Queen Mother

closed her eyes and sighed, "It's all because of troubles that make me not even want to speak."

Nanny Zhuang stepped forward and gently rubbed the Queen Mother's temples, saying, "This palace seems to be getting more and more deserted. Concubine Yi has been serving the emperor for so long, and there seems to be no good news. Why don't you ask the harem to have a few more masters to expand your family and talk to you. It will be more lively with more people." The

Queen Mother sighed again when she heard this.

What's the use of having more people?

If the fundamental reason of the emperor's illness is not solved, what's the use of having ten thousand beauties?

But he is still not in a hurry?

After thinking for a long time, the empress dowager suddenly opened her eyes and told Aunt Zhuang, "Go and do something for me."

...

~~

It was getting close to evening, and Yan Shu was about to get up from the table to stretch her muscles.

Just as she put down her pen, she heard the system say, [New news, the empress dowager can't wait any longer, and plans to ask Zhang Shengkang to cure the emperor's impotence.]

Yan Shu, [...]

The poor empress dowager still doesn't know that the emperor is well.

And he is well. Last night, she happened to send off her relatives, so she spent half the night reviewing the picture album that had been put aside for a few days.

Of course, this is not the time to reminisce about last night, so she hurriedly asked the system, [What does the empress dowager plan to do? The emperor doesn't trust Zhang Shengkang at all now, so it's impossible for him to get close to him to check his pulse. 】

System, 【Maybe this time he can get close to him. 】

Yan Shu, 【??? Why? 】

System, 【When the emperor was a child, he would have diarrhea whenever he drank goat's milk, so the empress dowager asked someone to add some goat's milk to the snacks and sent them to him. 】

Yan Shu, 【??? 】

... The empress dowager was really... cruel to ask Zhang Shengkang to check the emperor's pulse!

But how could she just stand by and watch?

So she quickly got up and rushed to Qianming Palace.

~~

When Yan Shu arrived at Qianming Palace, she saw a plate of taro cakes on the tea table in Yu's study, and someone who didn't notice was eating one.

And asked her, "Why are you here?"

Fu Hai was still in the palace, Yan Shu could only say, "I wanted to ask, Your Majesty, do you want to go to Ganlu Palace for dinner tonight... Where did these snacks come from?"

Yuwen Lan said while eating, "The Queen Mother sent them here. I was hungry, so I ate a few pieces first."

Then he asked her, "Do you want to try them?" Damn,

you ate a few pieces?

Yan Shu silently sweated for him and asked, "Your Majesty... are you okay?"

"Yes..."

Yuwen Lan was about to answer her, but he suddenly stopped after saying two words.

Yan Shu accurately caught the change in his expression and asked hurriedly, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yuwen Lan had already put down his snacks and quickly went to the bathroom, only hurriedly saying, "Wait a minute." He

didn't forget to close the door of the bathroom.

Seeing this, Fu Hai hurriedly followed to serve, but Yan Shu stopped him and said, "General Manager Fu, please step aside for a moment. I have something to say to Your Majesty."

Fu Hai paused, had to agree first, and retreated.

Yan Shu also came to the door of the bathroom and said, "I have something to report."

Yuwen Lan's slightly uncomfortable voice came from the door, "Wait a minute..."

Yan Shu said, "The matter is urgent, it will be too late later."

Someone in the door had to say, "Okay, let's say it this way."

... As a king, it was the first time in his life that he listened to someone report something in the bathroom.

Then, Yan Shu said, "The Queen Mother asked someone to put some goat's milk in the taro cake you just ate..."

"What?"

Yuwen Lan was stunned.

Yan Shu said anxiously, "Didn't you have diarrhea when you drank goat's milk when you were a child? The Queen Mother is planning to take this opportunity to ask Zhang Shengkang to come and treat you!!!"

Yuwen Lan, "..."

Okay, he already understood.

Putting aside all the speechlessness for the time being, he immediately said, "Call Doctor Jiang Yu!"

Yan Shu agreed and hurried out to tell Fu Hai.

Ran just raised his foot, but suddenly paused again -

Doctor Jiang Yu came to take his pulse, maybe he would recognize that he was the one who went to his house to treat impotence before?
