Chapter 168: Timid Su Jinghua
"Just go away!" Qianxue had no choice but to say this when she was helpless.
When the man heard this, he was a little stunned at first, and then he hurriedly crawled out of the examination room.
Qianxue and Qianyan, who had remained silent since they chased out, were both speechless in the face of this situation.
Despite this, the two of them only thought that this was just a minor episode and that it was over.
However, none of them had expected that in the afternoon, the teacher of the provincial school would find Chu Ci with an angry look on his face.
"Teacher Yan, you said that Su Jinghua, a student from your prefectural school, was frightened and developed a high fever in our 'Women's College'?" After hearing this, Chu Ci couldn't help but feel stunned and speechless.
How timid is Su Jinghua? He was frightened to such an extent just because of some scenes he saw in the academy. His mental quality is really too poor.
But on the surface, Chu Ci remained calm.
Chu Ci frowned slightly, looked at Yan Jiaoyu with a serious expression, and said slowly: "Yan Jiaoyu, this matter is indeed a little beyond my expectations. However, from what I know, the actual situation at that time should not be as serious as you said."
"Not serious? Not serious. How could Su Jinghua suddenly have a high fever? How could it not be serious?" Teacher Yan retorted anxiously, his face full of anxiety.
After a brief thought, Chu Ci responded calmly, "Teacher Yan, don't be anxious."
"Right now, the most urgent matter is Su Jinghua's condition. I happen to have a special medicine for fever reduction, and I also have some knowledge of medicine."
"How about this? I'll go with you right now and see if I can help diagnose something. We can also quickly determine Su Jinghua's specific condition, and then find a way to properly resolve it. What do you think?"
Teacher Yan was originally full of worries about his student Su Jinghua.
Hearing Chu Ci mention the solution, he felt a little relieved, but at the same time, he actually had many doubts and disbelief about the medical skills Chu Ci mentioned.
He pondered secretly, this Chu Ci, I've never heard of his extraordinary medical skills, can he really cure Su Jinghua? If only...
Thinking of this, Yan Jiaoyu couldn't help but ask, "Was this special medicine developed by Divine Doctor Hua?"
Chu Ci was well aware of Yan Jiaoyu's worries and doubts. To appease his anxiety, he directly admitted what he was thinking: "I will go to see Master for advice. Please wait a moment, Yan Jiaoyu."
At the same time, Chu Ci quickly thought about using this excuse to arrange for Sixteen to secretly investigate Su Jinghua's affairs to see if there was any hidden secrets. This way, he could both delay Yan Jiaoyu and properly arrange things, killing two birds with one stone.
Yan Jiaoyu was actually well aware of Chu Ci's plans, but he was not an unreasonable person. He responded, "Okay, I hope Principal Chu will go and come back soon."
Chu Ci said "wait a moment" to Yan Jiaoyu again, and then walked out quickly.
At this time, Sixteen had already found Yun Shang and Qian Xi as far as he could according to Chu Ci's previous instructions.
Seeing Chu Ci coming out, both of them showed anxious expressions on their faces. Yun Shang immediately asked, "Sister-in-law, what's going on?"
Qian Xi also followed up with another question: "Boss, what happened?"
Chu Ci didn't hesitate at all and succinctly recounted Su Jinghua's affairs in full. Then he continued, "I need to go to the prefectural school right away."
"Sister, please cooperate with the Taoist priest to do the things here."
"Sixteen, you must thoroughly investigate this matter."
"Our 'Women's College' has never proactively provoked trouble, but we certainly won't shy away from it either. We won't shirk our responsibilities, but we won't be held responsible for any unwarranted accusations or scapegoats."
But as soon as Chu Ci finished speaking, Qian Xi's expression became a little complicated, as if it was difficult to describe.
Qian Xi hesitated for a moment, then said, "Sister-in-law, I think I know what's going on."
Before Chu Ci could respond, Qian Xi couldn't wait to speak: "It's like this, sister-in-law. Qian Xue mentioned something to me at noon."
Afterwards, Fan Qianxi repeated his sister's complaints word for word.
Finally, she concluded, "Now that I've thought about it carefully, based on what you just said about Su Jinghua, if my guess is correct, Su Jinghua must be the cowardly student Qianxue mentioned who broke into the exam hall and scared himself."
Chu Ci: Although I know the truth of the matter, it is really difficult to comment on it.
After thinking for a while, Chu Ci said: "This is just a guess. If it is feasible, let Qianxue draw a portrait to confirm it."
Qian Xi would not hold Chu Ci back, so she agreed readily.
Chu Ci would not delay too much, so after giving a few words of instructions, he carried his medicine box and followed Teacher Yan to the provincial school.
At this time, Su Jinghua was already running a severe fever and began to talk nonsense. "...Don't...I didn't mean it. ...Let me go...let me go."
For other people, because they are a little further away or for other reasons, the sound sounds smaller and not very clear.
But Chu Ci's ears were extremely sensitive. Just listening to what Su Jinghua said, it was no wonder that Teacher Yan misunderstood!
However, this was obviously not the time to pursue these matters. Chu Ci hurriedly stepped forward to take Su Jinghua's pulse. After a careful diagnosis and verification of his previous guess, he took out a small bottle of medicine powder from his medicine box.
Chu Ci said solemnly, "Give him this medicine, about one-third of the dose at a time. It won't be long before his fever subsides."
As soon as Chu Ci finished speaking, the clever servant beside the teacher quickly took the medicine bottle, and then carefully fed the medicine to Su Jinghua according to the instructions taught by Chu Ci.
Perhaps because the ancient people's bodies had never been exposed to similar antipyretic drugs, Su Jinghua's body temperature had obviously begun to drop after only twenty minutes.
Immediately afterwards, his entire condition gradually changed, his consciousness began to slowly recover, and soon he slowly woke up.
"Teacher, why are you..." Su Jinghua's voice was extremely hoarse as soon as he opened his mouth.
Teacher Yan quickly interrupted, "Don't say anything. Drink some water first. What else is ailing you right now?"
Su Jinghua shook his head slightly, then turned his eyes and looked around. He found that he did not see the figure he had expected to appear, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He thought to himself: Fortunately, fortunately my family members didn’t come, otherwise I don’t know how to face it.
Then, he said to Teacher Yan sincerely, "Thank you, Teacher. Jinghua is sorry for causing you trouble."
