"Get the car ready! Let's go to Jiangyin County!" Liu Rushi said. For herself and her child, she had to make this trip too.
Zhao Xiaokun had been busy catching bandits these past few days! Fang Xinyu had dispatched his men to eliminate several small gangs of pirates, seizing over 100,000 taels of silver. He imprisoned the bandits and then hurriedly wrote a memorial. He skipped Yingtian Prefecture and sent it directly to the capital. Zhao Xiaofei personally delivered it.
Just as he was thinking that Chongzhen might give him a promotion before his death, a servant suddenly came in and reported, "Sir! Qian Muzhai's wife Liu has sent a letter. May I ask if you are free?"
"Qian Muzhai's wife, Liu? Is it Liu Rushi?" Zhao Xiaokun asked.
"Exactly!"
"Please invite her to the back court!" After Zhao Xiaokun gave the order, the servants invited Liu Rushi to the back court.
Zhao Xiaokun finally met the legendary Liu Rushi. She didn't have the internet celebrity look, nor did she have a stunning appearance. She had a petite, delicate, and pitiful appearance. She also had a slightly refined temperament. She felt a bit like Lin Daiyu from Dream of the Red Chamber.
"My concubine Liu greets Lord Zhao!" Liu Rushi bowed. At this point, her pregnancy wasn't apparent, and her belly wasn't bulging. But Zhao Xiaokun, a doctor, knew from her expression that Liu Rushi was pregnant.
He quickly gave her a false support and said, "Mrs. Qian is pregnant, so there's no need to perform the formalities!"
Liu Rushi knew immediately that Lord Zhao was a highly skilled doctor, so she said, "Thank you very much, Lord! Your medical skills are truly exceptional! My husband, Mr. Mu Zhai, has been ill for a long time and cannot survive without treatment. I hope Lord Zhao can save his life!"
Zhao Xiaokun thought to himself, this victim looking for help from the criminal is really interesting. Our Zhao family and your Qian family are really destined to be together. I don't know how many years your descendants have been slaughtered by us brothers! Should I save them or not?
Seeing Zhao Xiaokun's hesitation, Liu Rushi asked, "Does Lord Zhao have any concerns?"
"Oh! Nothing? But what is Mr. Qian's current situation?" Zhao Xiaokun asked.
"My husband is having a high fever and his face is pale. His pulse is disordered and he is coughing up blood!" Liu Rushi told Qian Qianyi about his condition.
Zhao Xiaokun thought about it and felt that it was probably acute pneumonia. He had medicine here, so he thought he could give him an injection and take medicine for a few days and he would be fine.
"Okay! I'll go! But let me be frank, you're a little late. Whether you can cure it depends on God's will! I'll take care of the affairs of the government office and then go with you!" said Zhao Xiaokun.
