Chapter 86 If it's not Qi Yunshen, who else has the same face as Qi Yunshen?
The next morning, Jiang Yunzheng took Hou Yue out.
Go to the East Palace in the morning and then go to Xu Mansion in the afternoon to give Xu Yinlin the third treatment.
Hou Yue was wearing a peach-colored blouse today and had her hair styled like a maid's. She couldn't help but smile all the way.
Before getting off the car, Jiang Yunzheng reminded her to be more restrained, "We are just going there to get treatment, not to pick up silver in the East Palace."
Hou Yue immediately suppressed the smile on her face and asked, "Is this okay?"
Jiang Yunzheng: “…………Okay.”
The Eastern Palace covers a vast area. The Hanying Palace where the Crown Prince lives is located in the north of the Eastern Palace. The matters of arresting the two families of King Zhou and the Chen family were basically handed over to Qi Yunshen yesterday. Jiang Yunzheng was led to the gate of the Hanying Palace by the eunuch, and the Crown Prince had just finished processing the memorials.
Jiang Yunzheng led Hou Yue to bow, "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
The prince was dressed in a blue shirt and had a noble temperament. He leaned on the couch, with a cigarette burning on the small table. His expression was so elegant that people could not approach him easily.
The prince asked Jiang Yunzheng to stand up. When his eyes fell on Hou Yue behind Jiang Yunzheng, he chuckled and said, "Doctor Jiang, please don't be polite."
Jiang Yunzheng took a quick glance at the layout of the hall. The emperor's eldest grandson, Xiao Ling, was writing by the window not far away with his back straight and a serious look on his face.
The prince extended his thin wrist and said, "After a brief glance yesterday, I realized that Doctor Jiang is indeed extraordinary."
Jiang Yunzheng smiled faintly: "Your Highness, thank you for the compliment."
After saying that, Jiang Yunzheng raised her hand and took the prince's pulse through the silk.
Jiang Yunzheng frowned slightly. The prince's health was even worse than she had imagined.
"When Your Highness was young, was he once caught in a snowstorm?"
The prince raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes full of admiration, "Doctor Jiang is indeed worthy of his reputation."
Jiang Yunzheng: "This herb grows on the top of a snowy mountain. It's a great remedy for superficial injuries like bruises and sprains. However, if taken internally, it turns into a poison, as potent as Crane's Beak Red. Your Highness was already frail, and once this poison was taken, it destroyed his health. His lingering illness and pain, along with the frequent dizziness and vomiting of blood, are all aftereffects of the Artemisia selengensis."
Jiang Yunzheng didn't ask any further questions.
Everything the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace eats has to be tasted for poison by eunuchs of all ranks. If he accidentally takes medicine intended for external use internally, there must be conspiracy behind it.
For more than ten years, it has been a great success for the Imperial Hospital to keep the prince alive until now.
Jiang Yunzheng did not say that she could completely cure the prince's illness, she just quickly wrote out a prescription.
"Your Highness, please take this prescription for three days, and take the pills I prescribe before bed. I will come back to see you again in three days."
The prince handed the prescription to the eunuch.
"I will prepare the pills tonight and deliver them to Your Highness tomorrow."
He casually asked, "Doctor Jiang, please tell me frankly, how many years do I have left to live?"
Jiang Yunzheng frowned. "As far as taking that prescription alone is concerned, living for seven or eight years shouldn't be a problem. But the specific results will depend on the follow-up examination results in three days. By then, adjusting the prescription will allow him to live another ten years."
As soon as the words fell, the hall became very quiet.
All the eunuchs and palace maids stared at Jiang Yunzheng. The prince looked at her with slightly gloomy eyes, and even the emperor's eldest grandson in front of the window had a look of surprise on his face.
Behind him, Hou Yue excitedly grabbed Jiang Yunzheng's sleeve and said, "Is it really possible? I should have come earlier if I had known."
Jiang Yunzheng held his forehead and glanced at Hou Yue helplessly, "It's not too late now."
A smile flashed in the prince's eyes and he glanced at the person behind Jiang Yunzheng.
"Then let's do as Doctor Jiang said and talk about it in three days."
Jiang Yunzheng stood up to say goodbye, while Hou Yue was left in the hall.
There was a lake outside Hanying Palace. Jiang Yunzheng was watching fish by the lake. The prince's voice was very low in the palace, but Hou Yue's loud voice came out instead.
"The information you gave me last time was incomplete, and it almost made me look bad!"
The prince couldn't remember, so he said in an indulgent tone, "What is it?"
Hou Yue stamped her foot angrily. "Why did Prince Qi capture the Xixia Saint back then? Was it really because Xiao Qinyu harmed the Crown Prince's Consort?"
The prince looked surprised, "Who are you asking this for?"
Hou Yue bit her lip and said, "Don't worry about it, just tell me!"
The prince appears to be mild-mannered on the surface, but he actually has a dagger hidden behind his smile. Only Hou Yue dares to act like a spoiled child in front of him.
Seeing that the prince was silent, Hou Yue continued to talk to herself, "A few days ago, I went to a play, and the person who performed the play said that Qi Yunshen had other purposes in arresting Xiao Qinyu. I'm curious, so tell me quickly."
The prince glanced outside the courtyard.
He said calmly, "I told you, it was Xiao Qinyu who teamed up with Xu Yinlin to kill the Crown Prince's Consort."
Hou Yue used Jiang Yunzheng's exact words: "You can know a person's face but not his heart. What if Prince Qi was planning to kill Xiao Qinyu anyway, and he just used the excuse of wanting to avenge the Crown Princess?"
As soon as the words fell.
The prince's face darkened slightly, "Hou Yue, be careful with your words."
Hou Yue stopped talking.
Seeing Hou Yue unhappy, the prince sighed inwardly and said, "Yan Hui and I grew up together. His feelings for the Crown Prince's Consort are extraordinary. He can use anyone, but he won't use the Crown Prince's Consort."
Thinking of Xu Jingyang, the prince sighed softly.
Jiang Yunzheng in the yard heard the entire conversation between the two.
Her brows furrowed slightly, and her eyes gradually darkened.
The prince was very sure of what he said, so who else could it be but Qi Yunshen who killed her with his own hands?
If it really wasn't Qi Yunshen, then who else could have the same face and the same voice as Qi Yunshen?
Jiang Yunzheng stared at the fish in the lake, recalling the day in the palace. She felt a tearing headache in her head. She slowly squatted down, but a familiar voice came from above her head, with a slightly mocking tone.
"Doctor Jiang, are you counting fish with this pestle?"
Jiang Yunzheng looked up and saw Qi Yunshen looking down at her.
"Greetings, Prince Qi." Jiang Yunzheng said as she was about to stand up, but her footing suddenly became unstable and she stepped on a stone, almost falling into the lake.
Fortunately, Qi Yunshen grabbed her wrist and let go of her hand, with a strange look in his eyes.
Jiang Yunzheng stood up straight and took a step back. "Thank you, Prince."
Qi Yunshen turned and went to Hanying Palace, and the pain in his head gradually subsided.
Inside the palace, Hou Yue said, "Doctor Jiang has extraordinary medical skills and can bring the dead back to life. Your Highness, your illness will be in the care of Doctor Jiang."
Qi Yunshen coughed lightly at the door.
Hou Yue simply jumped off the bed and said, "Doctor Jiang and I are going back."
The prince raised his hand and said, "Have lunch at the mansion before leaving."
Hou Yue nodded casually, thinking of going out to ask Doctor Jiang for his opinion first.
Qi Yunshen and Hou Yue passed by each other, and Qi Yunshen entered the hall and said casually: "She is with Jiang Yunzheng now."
The prince nodded. "She is used to being free and spontaneous. My body, which could die at any moment, is not suitable for her. Neither is the East Palace suitable for her."
Qi Yunshen poured himself a cup of tea and didn't respond.
When Xiao Ling saw Qi Yunshen coming, he put down the pen in his hand, took out a box from under the table, and walked to Qi Yunshen.
"Uncle Qi, this is a gift for Zhenzhen."
The prince laughed, "It was the little girl's birthday a few days ago, and I didn't have time to send her a gift."
Qi Yunshen accepted it on behalf of his daughter.
The prince then asked, "Doctor Jiang is known for her miraculous healing skills. Has she ever treated Zhenzhen's oral illness?"
Qi Yunshen: "No rush. We found Dr. Gu in Shu a few days ago. He will probably be back in Beijing soon."
When it comes to his daughter, Qi Yunshen doesn't dare to take any risks.
