Shang Shaoyan is a person of her word. If she said she would ask Lin Jing to treat Qiao Yu's illness, then she really would ask Lin Jing to treat Qiao Yu's illness.
She wrote a lengthy two-page letter and then sent it to Shengjing.
Qiao Xiuyu had been feeling depressed these past few days. He was actually worried about Qiao Yu, but he didn't care about his father, who cared about nothing but the country.
Shang Shaoyan put herself in others' shoes. When Shang Yunlan was seriously ill, she was more distressed than anyone else. She felt the same way when it happened to Qiao Xiuyu. So she comforted him, "Don't worry, Seventh Brother. My brother was cured by Lin Jing. You know that his illness was not a heart disease, but a poison he was born with. It was cured after nearly twenty years. Your brother will get better too. Lin Jing is very capable."
Qiao Xiuyu nodded, her mood improving somewhat. Seeing this, Shang Shaoyan didn't press her further, as it was only natural.
On this day, Shang Shaoyan went to the post station as usual to see if there was a letter from Shang Yunlan—the last time Shang Yunlan sent him a letter was when he and Emperor Chen left Shengjing and told him about their next plans.
Holding up her homemade parasol, she searched through the letters and finally found Shang Yunlan's letter.
Shang Shaoyan felt a sense of relief. She had been afraid that Shang Yunlan's plan would fail and that she would be unable to leave Shengjing, but now it seemed that it had succeeded.
She took the letter back to the mansion and then opened it to read it carefully.
An'an:
Seeing this letter is like meeting you in person.
I've already taken CH to HZ, but I've fallen seriously ill and have to stay in HZ..."
I have lured Emperor Chen to Hangzhou, and I have feigned a serious illness so that he will have no choice but to remain there.
Shang Shaoyan: "..."
Is this supposed to be Weibo? They're even using abbreviations and English words.
However, she knew this was to prevent the letter from being intercepted by someone with ulterior motives, but she still thought it was unnecessary.
Besides, this kind of defense might be able to stop people from ancient times, but it won't stop Xie Huayin!
That's a top student with a PhD in physics, an overseas background, and an IELTS score of 7.5.
Shang Shaoyan closed his eyes tightly, forcibly suppressing the urge to kill someone, and then continued reading.
"I may be heading to XB one month later, and then to SZ to monitor affairs for a while. If possible, you can go to SZ and pick me up."
I may depart for the Northwest in about a month to temporarily oversee affairs in Shu Prefecture. If possible, you can come to Shu Prefecture to pick me up.
Shang Shaoyan: "..."
She barely wanted to talk.
But she still patiently read the letter to the end and finally summarized it.
First, Shang Yunlan has successfully left Shengjing and is preparing to go to Shuzhou to help me oversee the affairs there.
Second, that little idiot Chen Huang has already been poisoned by He Shuye and himself, and he is certainly not going to live much longer now;
Third, he had already come up with a legitimate reason for Shang Shaoyan to raise an army: as long as other forces start to rebel, then Shang Shaoyan can come to the emperor's aid.
As for this "other force," Shang Yunlan has already found one—Lu Yi, the younger brother of Emperor Chen, the fifth son of the late emperor, Prince Gong, who seems to be plotting to usurp the throne recently.
When it comes to Prince Gong, Lu Yi, there are only two words to describe him: naive.
That's a nicer way of putting it; to put it bluntly, they're stupid and easily fooled.
With this trait, Lu Yi did many foolish and stupid things, including but not limited to murder, arson, and kidnapping women.
It is said that he was corrupted by the late emperor's fourth son, who had already been executed by being cut in half at the waist—in short, he deserved to die, and his advisors were no better; they were all a bunch of hypocritical scoundrels.
This information was provided by Shang Yunlan, seemingly out of concern that Shang Shaoyan might feel burdened.
And Shang Shaoyan, who saw this...
LOL, there's absolutely no pressure about it.
Since she's determined to take that position, she's destined to be merciless. She doesn't care if someone is Lu Yi, Lu He, or Lu Zhi; as long as they're surnamed Lu, they have to die.
Shang Shaoyan yawned, wondering when she could send someone to Lu Yi's side to stir things up a bit more, so that she could speed things up.
...
Southern Chen, Hangzhou.
Shang Yunlan didn't tell Shang Shaoyan that she had been stabbed, for fear of worrying her.
In fact, the knife wound was quite serious, almost damaging internal organs, especially in the hot summer. If Lin Jing hadn't been there, Shang Yunlan would most likely have suffered an infection.
In short, in ancient times, being injured or sick was a very dangerous thing.
While recovering from his injuries, Shang Yunlan was also preparing penicillin, which could save many lives. He had already planned to promote modern medicine and traditional Chinese medicine together, and later even build a medical school called "Yunlan Medical School".
Feeling great.
Emperor Chen had already been summoned away by He Shuye with a letter. He had to go back to carry out his grand plan of alchemy and immortal cultivation. He only pretended to care about Shang Yunlan for a few words before hurriedly heading to Shengjing.
Li Langxuan sat in Shang Yunlan's bedroom, looking at her with a complicated expression: "Why did you have to take the knife for yourself?"
Shang Yunlan glanced at Li Langxuan and said irritably, "Only if I take this knife wound will Emperor Chen believe it was an accident and trust me more. I think it's worth it... By the way, don't tell An'an, I don't want to die from her poisonous hand instead of from the knife wound..."
Li Langxuan: "..."
He was holding a peach in his hand, and he was puzzled when he heard this: "Why do you and Qiao Xiuyu say this? Princess Heyang is a woman, after all. She is not as violent as you say."
