The medicine box in Doctor Li's hand fell heavily to the ground. Zhao Yunzhu and King Tong'an in the room heard the noise outside and came out to check.
"Old man?"
"Li Mansion Doctor?"
The two of them said in unison, and Doctor Li looked at the map of mountains and seas in shock.
"Who, where did this painting come from?"
Doctor Li stretched out his trembling finger and pointed at the mountain and sea map hanging on the wall. He asked again in a trembling voice, "Where did it come from?"
Zhao Yunzhu looked at the mountain and sea map on the wall, then at Doctor Li, before answering, "This belongs to my father."
"Is this your father's?"
There was a hint of suspicion in Doctor Li's eyes.
Seeing Zhao Yunzhu nod, Doctor Li quickly walked over to the mountain and sea map and touched the scenery in the map with his hand. "I didn't expect to see you again."
Prince An and Zhao Yunzhu looked at Doctor Li hesitantly and saw that his body was trembling slightly.
"Old man, do you recognize this painting?"
Prince An was the first to ask.
Doctor Li turned his back to the two of them, wiped away his tears, and when he turned around, his eyes were slightly red. "We can be considered old friends."
This sentence successfully aroused the curiosity of the two.
It turns out that this painting was not painted by Zhao Yunzhu's father, but by an old friend of his.
As far as Zhao Yunzhu could remember, the good friend that Doctor Li mentioned had never appeared by her father's side.
"Because he passed away a long time ago, Concubine Yun naturally has never seen him."
Zhao Yunzhu disagreed with Li Fuyi's statement, "Then why did my father say that he drew this map of mountains and seas?"
"Because that man is the son of a guilty minister, a secret that cannot be mentioned in Chang'an."
It turned out that according to Doctor Li, his father's good friend was surnamed Tian. The Tian family once held the title of Marquis, and Young Master Tian was the eldest son of the Marquisate. Later, he was involved in a major case of favoritism and corruption in the court.
The entire Tian family was executed, and this painting was drawn by Master Tian himself.
He entrusted the painting to his good friend Prime Minister Zhao.
"My father once mentioned that this painting would be given to a young man in the future. Does Doctor Li know about this?"
Zhao Yunzhu asked.
Doctor Li looked at Prince An with a gloomy expression, then changed the subject, "Well... I don't know. Now that it's in the hands of you two, perhaps it's a guidance from the unknown."
Prince An did not quite believe this statement.
"Old man, how do you know so clearly?"
Doctor Li coughed twice and glared at Prince An. "When Young Master Tian was young, I taught him his studies. Naturally, I know a little about his affairs."
Qin Zongzhi raised his eyebrows and looked at Doctor Li, "Really?"
Doctor Li rolled his eyes at Prince An, then walked up to Zhao Yunzhu and said, "I heard that when the Tian family's property was raided, not much gold and silver was found. It's said that the Tian family's gold and silver were moved away long ago by then-Old Madam Tian."
"There was a rumor that the Tian family hid a mountain of gold. My... apprentice, who hates drawing maps of mountains and seas, specifically gave this map to your father. I'm afraid it's related to the Tian family's gold mountain!"
Zhao Yunzhu looked at the Li family physician who had a determined expression.
Naturally, he didn't believe it in his heart, but he saw that Doctor Li's words sounded so convincing.
She was successfully intrigued.
"have a look?"
She looked at Doctor Li and pointed at the map of mountains and seas hanging on the wall.
Seeing Doctor Li nod, Prince An had no choice but to step forward and take the map of mountains and seas down from the wall.
The map of mountains and seas was spread out on the table.
The three of them observed carefully, but could not find any clues.
The maid outside asked whether lunch would be delivered.
Only then did they give up.
"Concubine Yun, could you lend me this map of mountains and seas to study carefully for a few days?"
"Can."
This was the first time that Doctor Li spoke to her, so Zhao Yunzhu naturally had no reason to refuse.
Doctor Li did not stay for dinner and left with the scroll.
Zhao Yunzhu and King An saw that he was acting so abnormally.
"Your Majesty, is this true about the Tian family's gold mountain?"
"Maybe there really is. The old man is a little abnormal today."
Qin Zongzhi felt a little more suspicious.
Doctor Li took the map of mountains and seas away for several days and never appeared again. Zhao Yunzhu and King An both forgot about it.
After all, I don’t have the time to think about the Tian family’s affairs all day long.
Because Zhao Yunzhu began to worry about Prince An.
Qin Zongzhi was transferred by the Queen Mother to take over the patrol camp in Chang'an City.
Most of the people in the patrol camp are children of aristocratic families, who are just holding sinecure positions, after all, their families have property to support them.
"Why are you suddenly asking the prince to take command of the City Patrol?"
Zhao Yunzhu was shocked when he heard the news, because Prince An was going to move to the military camp outside the city.
"The Queen Mother hopes that I can reorganize the patrol camp and remove the children of aristocratic families."
"The Queen Mother really doesn't want the Prince to gain any advantage from such an offensive thing. If the Prince does well, he will definitely offend the entire Chang'an family. If he does not do well, I am afraid that the Prince will have a harder time in the court."
"That's right. Prince Rong has been weak since childhood and cannot be relied upon. Prince Xian has been punished to face the wall in his mansion. Only I can go now. But this matter is inherently offensive. The Queen Mother pushed me out just to use me to reorganize the family!"
Why couldn't Qin Zongzhi see through it? But he had no choice at the moment.
"Your Highness, please be careful. I will be waiting for your safe return at the palace!"
"Well, you should be careful too and come back when you have time."
…
As soon as Prince An left the palace, someone came from the palace to pick her up.
