Chapter 369 Saving lives and saving life roots are equally important
There was complete silence in Fushou Hall at first, but when Su Qianqian's sedan chair and the wailing sounds faded away, the Qin family burst into laughter. Fortunately, the children had already gone back, otherwise it would be difficult to explain.
But after laughing, Mrs. Du also became worried. Could it be that Qin Hanzhang really had a hidden illness? I tried several times but was always distracted. It would be bad to go around looking for doctors and let everyone know, otherwise the hidden disease would become an obvious one!
Su Qianqian was busy along the way. She studied with the system how to do good deeds and help Qin Hanzhang cure his hidden illness.
[I do have the prescription, but without a checkup I don’t know his condition and it’s hard to know the dosage. 】
Su Qianqian said carefully in her heart.
[What does his sexual happiness have to do with you? You don’t want to have sex with him. Isn’t it a good thing that he has a hidden illness? Have you ever thought about the consequences of your cure? 】
The system questioned with a clear mind.
[That disease is not so easy to cure. I don’t know when I will go back. Will he be able to meet an experienced doctor like me in the future? This is also a way to accumulate merit. Saving lives and saving life roots are equally important to men! 】
Su Qianqian was already imagining Qin Hanzhang's grateful look. By then, she would be able to leave without losing her achievements and fame.
What experience do you have? You are unfamiliar with that field, but you think that just by reading comic books and watching shadow puppet shows, you are proficient in the functions and principles of human evolution? 】
[I have done some research in that field...] Su Qianqian was obviously feeling guilty.
[Okay, okay, use your innate courage to awaken the little dragon of the Marquis. Then you will know that all the suffering you have caused others will be repaid by you! 】
The system said something meaningful, ignored Su Qianqian's plan to rescue her second brother, and went to sleep.
Qin Hanzhang walked beside the warm sedan with a speechless look. Even on a winter night, he still didn't like sitting in the sedan and would rather walk to accompany Su Qianqian back to the yard.
The two of them changed their clothes and returned to the inner room. Qin Hanzhang picked up a book to read, and Su Qianqian sneaked up to him.
"What book is the Marquis reading?" Su Qianqian pretended to pull Qin Hanzhang's hand, but actually her fingertips rested on Qin Hanzhang's wrist, trying to take the opportunity to take his pulse.
Qin Hanzhang deliberately did not dodge, but secretly used his energy to mess up his pulse.
【Um? Is this because of the stimulation that even the pulse is disordered? Oh, it is indeed a case of kidney deficiency, blood cannot nourish essence...】
Su Qianqian touched for a long time before letting go.
[It feels pretty good. It would be even better if I could feel eight-pack abs. The injury healed so quickly that I lost all the benefits! 】
Su Qianqian complained and went aside, then picked up a pen to write a prescription.
The Marquis' Mansion was not short of precious medicinal materials. Although this was her first time treating this type of disease, she believed that her own knowledge and that of the original owner combined were enough to overcome this problem.
Qin Hanzhang's eyes followed Su Qianqian's pen, feeling both angry and amused. He didn't know why he was so certain of her guess.
But he still noticed what Su Qianqian said, "I don't know when she will go back." Where will she go back?
Su Qianqian was looking at the words on the paper and didn't notice that Qin Hanzhang was staring at her. She didn't read a single word of the book.
When he woke up the next day, Qin Hanzhang was no longer in the room. Su Mu told Su Qianqian that the Marquis had asked the kitchen to make wontons, and he had too much to do today to have dinner with Su Qianqian.
Su Qianqian nodded. She got up late, which was a bit out of sync with Qin Hanzhang's schedule, and they didn't often have breakfast together before.
However, today was the day that Duke Xuan would deliver the antidote. In order to make Duke Xuan believe, she and Qin Hanzhang did not take the antidote. They were just waiting for Duke Xuan to find someone to test them and find out that they still had poison in their bodies, so that he would not suspect that they were pretending to be subdued.
After dinner, Su Qianqian changed into men's clothes and went to the Dali Temple to see Lord Zhuang. Coincidentally, Lu Jun was also in Lord Zhuang's office. When he saw Su Qianqian come in, the expression on his face became even more gloomy and cold.
"Master Su, you are now rising to prominence by stepping on the corpses of others."
Lu Jun said with a sneer.
"What do you mean, Lord Lu? You are sitting here peacefully, why are you talking about corpses? It's really unlucky!" Su Qianqian frowned and shook her head.
Lu Jun choked and his face turned blue with anger: "How can Lord Su be like a woman, enjoying verbal disputes the most? It's really a shame for scholars!"
"How can Lord Lu be like a villain, always harboring sorrow in his heart? He is truly a scum of the court!"
Su Qianqian did not give in at all.
"How dare you..."
"Why shouldn't I? Although I am the Deputy Director of the Ministry of Justice, a small position that is not worth mentioning, but this is the title bestowed by the emperor himself. You said that I was stepping on the corpses of others. Does that mean that the emperor is bloodthirsty and killed his subjects to give me this position?"
Su Qianqian's every word was powerful and powerful, framing Lu Jun.
"I never said that. You are simply confusing right and wrong and making up stories!" Lu Jun's face changed. He stood up from his seat, walked away angrily, and glared at Su Qianqian fiercely before leaving.
Lord Zhuang had been busy sorting out files there, seemingly hearing nothing. It was not until Lu Jun left that he withdrew his hand and began to laugh so hard that he fell backwards.
"Master Xiao Su, your sharp tongue has never spared anyone! He was very angry and said something rude, so you don't have to take it to heart."
Mr. Zhuang said this with a smile, gesturing for Su Qianqian to sit down.
"The emperor approved the case today. County Magistrate Gu was sentenced to death by beheading and his property was confiscated. The rest of those who bought their positions were sentenced to exile and their property was confiscated. Lu Jing was sentenced to fifty strokes of the cane and exiled three thousand miles. The money he had obtained was confiscated. Cui Jing committed suicide out of fear of punishment to pay for his crime. The captured assassins were sent to the southern border as exiles."
Lord Zhuang calmly stated the imperial edict of Emperor Gan De.
This result is similar to what Su Qianqian guessed. The rest depends on myself.
"There is another thing, which is Lu Jun's anger." Lord Zhuang's expression became mysterious.
"There are too many things that make him angry... Which one are you talking about, sir?" Su Qianqian asked with a frown.
Master Zhuang glared at Su Qianqian and said, "I just wanted to keep it a secret, but you spoiled the fun. Congratulations, Master Su, you're going to be promoted again."
"Promotion? Promotion to what? Why should I get promoted? Don't joke!"
Su Qianqian waved her hands repeatedly. She just wanted to find out the real murderer and get him to escape. She didn't want to work with her head on the line. The retirement age in this era is more than ten years later than in her era. Basically, one has to work until death!
"How can you do this? I have a keen eye for talent and strongly recommend you. The emperor also praises you highly. So, Master Su, the position left vacant by Lu Jing will most likely be filled by you. Go back and listen to the announcement."
Lord Zhuang was very proud and stroked his sparse beard.
"What? Lord Zhuang, please go and ask the emperor to take back his order. I don't want to be promoted. I just want to lie down... and sleep. The higher the official, the more things to do. How can I have time to sleep?"
Su Qianqian had a bitter look on her face. If she became the Minister of Personnel, she would have to go to court before dawn every day and return home exhausted after finishing her official duties. She was not like Lu Jing who had connections everywhere, so what was the point of working so hard?
"Master Su, congratulations!" A familiar clear voice sounded, and Su Qianqian paused.
