Chapter 505
Upon hearing him mention Yunxi, Shen Rang's eyes flickered slightly.
His daughter, Xi'er, has been out of contact for the past year.
Jing Er came to Suzhou to investigate and also visited Jizhou. He said that Yunxi had moved away from her previous residence, so now, Yunxi has truly disappeared without a trace.
But he doesn't have enough power.
If he could seize power, he could mobilize officials and soldiers from all over the country to search for people for him, but as it is now, he is far from that.
Shen Rang regained his composure: "This trip is for official business."
Jingyuan had no choice but to agree.
——
Jizhou.
After traveling around Jizhou with Yunxi, Aping's doubts only deepened upon their return.
After thinking it over, she finally spoke up: "Young lady, why do you want to study medicine with a woman?"
Yunxi poured her a cup of perilla drink.
The translucent purple swirled in the bowl, and a unique spicy and warm fragrance of perilla gradually spread out.
"Because of you."
"I?"
Yunxi nodded: "There is a clinic in Luoyang that is staffed entirely by female doctors and is dedicated to women. It is called Yiyuantang. So I was thinking, if there were also a Yiyuantang here, would there be no more women who would miss the opportunity to see a doctor because they were too shy?"
Hearing Yunxi's words, Aping's eyes brightened slightly.
"Young lady, are you from Luoyang?"
"My parents told me that Luoyang is located under the emperor's nose and is full of treasures. Is that true?"
Her focus veered off to a point Yunxi hadn't expected, and Yunxi chuckled and nodded.
After daydreaming for a while, A-Ping finally said, "Miss, if that's the case, I can do it too!"
“Young lady, think about it. I myself have been affected by this matter. Moreover, after this experience, I know that this is not a big deal. So, let me be the first female doctor!”
Meeting A Ping's honest and bright eyes, Yun Xi was slightly taken aback this time.
Yunxi also felt that Aping was the most suitable candidate.
But Ah Ping had just experienced such a dramatic change, and her mood was probably still not calm, let alone studying medicine, so Yunxi hesitated to bring it up.
Unexpectedly, it was Ah Ping herself who brought it up today.
Seeing that Yunxi didn't speak, Aping tilted her head and said, "Miss, is there any other concern? Although I've never been exposed to this before, I learn things very quickly. After so many days, I've already recognized most of the commonly used medicinal herbs. I'm sure I can do it!"
Yunxi came to her senses: "I have no worries... Since you put it that way, I'll ask Doctor Feng to come over tonight and discuss it with him."
"Um!"
After sitting for a while, Ah Ping said again, "Miss, I have many friends. Could you ask them to come and study medicine as well?"
"Young lady, you don't know, but my friends don't want to learn embroidery. But they have no choice; their families force them to learn, and it's very hard for them. So I was thinking, would studying medicine be better?"
"Isn't it better to face real, living people than to face scraps of tattered fabric?"
Yunxi hummed in agreement: "That's a good idea... Why don't you go back and ask them when they're free, and bring them over for Doctor Feng to take a look?"
Although she was the one who proposed the idea of opening a women's clinic, it was Doctor Feng who personally taught the apprentices, and whether it succeeded or not was ultimately up to Doctor Feng.
A-Ping nodded vigorously.
