Chapter 294: The inheritance is passed down to males but not females
“Grandfather, the Jiang family will be fine. You have to get better.”
Old Doctor Jiang shook his head slowly. "I'm at the end of my rope and can't hold on any longer. Grandfather is relieved to see you well. You look very beautiful dressed like this now. From now on, you can return to your girlish body. I'm sorry for the past ten years."
A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Nansheng's eyes.
"You, you already knew that I was a girl?"
From Xiao Yanci's words, Jiang Nansheng had a clear understanding of the internal disputes in the Jiang family.
She was born out of wedlock, and her aunt lied to everyone that she was a boy since she was born, because the Jiang family's medical skills were passed down to sons, not daughters.
It was this decision that changed Jiang Nansheng's future.
Since her enlightenment, she has shown extraordinary medical talent, which has earned her the attention of her grandfather.
Over the years, apart from her aunt, only Xiao Yanci and Xiao Baozhu knew that she was a girl. Even her grandfather was unaware of it - this was what Xiao Yanci told her.
But now, the meaning of my grandfather's words seemed to be that he had known about this for a long time.
Jiang Nansheng's surprise was not fake at all.
Doctor Jiang sighed, "Silly child, I raised you, how could I not see it?"
When he discovered the secret, he was furious. He was furious at being deceived and also furious that they had made him go against the Jiang family motto that medical skills should be passed down to sons and not daughters.
He originally wanted to punish Jiang Nansheng severely, but when he saw how she devoted herself to studying medicine, how focused and serious she was in treating patients, and how her talent was even better than hers, the old doctor Jiang's original anger instantly turned into unspeakable regret and powerlessness.
Looking back at the other insignificant descendants of the Jiang family, he ultimately chose to turn a blind eye and did not expose the matter.
At first, he was still observing Jiang Nansheng, but later he was completely impressed by her talent and hard work.
The old doctor Jiang, who has always been old-fashioned, also doubted the Jiang family motto for the first time.
Why is it passed down to males and not females?
Regardless of gender, as long as they have talent, they should be given equal opportunities. Only in this way can the Jiang family's medical skills be passed on.
Jiang Nansheng is so talented, how could he be buried?
Doctor Jiang completely accepted her female body, but he never found a suitable opportunity to tell her about it.
As time went by, the Jiang family was the first to get into trouble.
Old Doctor Jiang risked his dignity to ask the emperor to atone for his crime and save the women of the Jiang family. Part of the reason was for Jiang Nansheng.
She is the inheritance of the Jiang family, the future and hope of the Jiang family, and she cannot be implicated.
Doctor Jiang held Jiang Nansheng's hand and warned her again, "Nansheng, protect yourself and don't reveal your identity easily. If the Jiang family can't recover, you won't be implicated."
Jiang Nansheng's tears suddenly slid down and dripped onto the back of his skinny hand.
"Grandfather, nothing will happen to the Jiang family! The credit belongs to the Jiang family, and no one can take it away."
Doctor Jiang's eyes were filled with relief. "You are a good child. Grandfather knows you can do it."
"Grandfather, you have to be well and see with your own eyes that the Jiang family is safe and sound. Without you, the Jiang family will really fall apart."
"Okay, okay, grandpa will be fine."
As he spoke, fatigue appeared on the face of old doctor Jiang again.
He was still seriously ill and could only say so much, which was his limit.
Jiang Nansheng stayed with him until he fell asleep, then put on his veil again and got up to go out.
Lin Zheng was guarding outside the door like a door god. Jiang Herong and others didn't dare to get closer. They only heard low voices coming from the house, but they couldn't hear what was said.
Jiang Herong asked hurriedly, "Miss Ah Heng, how is my father?"
Jiang Nansheng glanced at the man. He was her biological father, but she didn't feel any ripples when she saw him.
She was not familiar with the father.
Jiang Nansheng's tone was calm, "Old Doctor Jiang's heart disease has been cured, and his body is almost recovered. He just needs to take good care of himself."
Everyone was overjoyed and breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Nansheng didn't stay any longer and left with Lin Zheng.
Lin Zheng stayed by her side all the time, protecting her safety.
Especially since she is in the limelight now, she is bound to become a thorn in the eyes of some people. He will not allow Jiang Nansheng to have any accidents.
Gu Qishan also arranged guards for Jiang Nansheng, but Lin Zheng didn't trust anyone but himself.
That night, a bird of prey flew in front of Lin Zheng's house.
It was a jet-black Saker Falcon with a huge body and looked very ferocious.
As soon as Lin Zheng heard the noise, he immediately opened the window.
The ferocious Saker Falcon became docile in an instant when it came in front of him, and rubbed its head against his palm.
Lin Zheng touched its head and took something from its feet.
After opening it and reading it, his face suddenly became gloomy.
He quickly destroyed the note, and the Saker Falcon rubbed against his palm before flying away.
The next day, he informed Jiang Nansheng of this matter, and Jiang Nansheng sent someone to pass it on to Xiao Yanci.
After hearing this, Xiao Yanci and the others couldn't help but sneer, "Gu Zhaolin may not be very capable, but he's quite courageous! He even dared to murder the General Zhenxi."
Ge Xubai's expression was even more grim. "The last time Master was poisoned, he was definitely involved, and he still refuses to give up! Master treated him well."
Ye Hanyi scorned, "Some people are born to be ungrateful and untameable."
Lu Zhiran thought of another question, "How did Lin Zheng get the news? How could he be so well-informed?"
This made everyone look thoughtful.
Xiao Yanci made the final decision, "In this matter, it is better to believe it than not to believe it. We will continue to investigate and we will naturally be able to verify whether Lin Zheng's information is reliable. After this matter is resolved, it will not be too late to verify it with Lin Zheng."
No one objected.
Now is definitely not the time to doubt Lin Zheng's identity.
They have plenty of ways to verify whether this news is true or false.
Ge Xubai was afraid that Gu Qishan would be tricked, so he went there to make arrangements immediately.
Two days later, the army sent out to search for people returned to the city and brought back bad news.
General Zheng Shuo knelt down and apologized, "General, I have found out the news about Prince Jin and General Ge, but..."
Gu Qishan's aura was intimidating, his face solemn, "Where are they?"
"I've been in conflict with the Qiangdi people. They claim they have Prince Jin and General Ge in their custody. If you want them to release them, you must personally negotiate."
Gu Qishan looked anxious, "Are you serious? Did you see the person with your own eyes?"
"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. Although I was far away, the figure and appearance are indeed very similar. There is no doubt about it."
Gu Qishan breathed a sigh of relief, "Great! They're still alive."
Then he asked, "How are they? Are they injured?"
Zheng Shuo hesitated, "They were covered in blood and didn't look well. But they were still alive."
If you fall into the hands of a Qiang flute player, how can you not suffer physical pain?
Gu Qishan's face showed a sad expression.
"Qiang Di thieves, how despicable! I will go and meet them!"
