Chapter 85 Who is jealous?
Jiang Nansheng's face darkened, and Xiao Baozhu's eyes widened in horror.
"She, she achieved great success thanks to this recipe?"
"That's right."
Xiao Baozhu's face flushed with anger. "She's disregarding the lives of the people and deceiving the emperor!"
Anger burned in Jiang Nansheng's eyes. As a doctor, one should be kind. Otherwise, what is the difference between him and a murderer?
Regardless of whether Zhao Shuning herself knew that there was something wrong with the prescription, as long as the prescription came from her, she could not escape blame.
Lu Zhiran looked at Jiang Nansheng and said, "Mr. Jiang, I suspect that the illnesses of the people of Xiping this time are related to this prescription. To verify my speculation, I have secretly consulted many doctors, and they all confirmed this. Today, I also want to hear Mr. Jiang's opinions and help me solve some of my doubts."
Jiang Nansheng's face was solemn. "I haven't personally examined the patient's pulse, so I can't say for sure that there's a connection between the two. I can only say that, judging from the pathology and symptoms alone, the two are highly correlated."
She didn't say anything definite, but as her good friend, how could Xiao Baozhu not understand what she meant?
The anger burned in her chest, almost making her explode.
"Zhao Shuning, you're so good! To achieve merit, she's willing to resort to such underhanded tactics. Isn't she afraid of being exposed and held accountable?"
Lu Zhiran's eyes were cold, "If the matter is really exposed, she will have a scapegoat."
"She wrote the prescription, can she still deny it?"
Lu Zhiran said quietly, "Although the prescription was written by her, the herbs were provided free of charge by Taicang Trading Company. If someone deliberately misleads me, I cannot escape the blame."
In his previous life, Chu Yian accused Zhao Shuning of poor medical skills and the hidden dangers that had occurred. Zhao Shuning then said sinisterly, "If this really happens, Lu Zhiran will be my scapegoat. It was her Taicang Company that donated expired medicinal materials that led to this consequence."
After hearing this, Chu Yian also agreed.
Later, the incident never broke out, and Taicang Trading Company was naturally not implicated.
Zhao Shuning performed meritorious service twice by stepping on the corpses of Xiping people and became a famous female doctor in Da Qi.
In this life, she would never give Zhao Shuning the opportunity to make meritorious service, let alone let her throw this basin of dirty water on her head.
Xiao Baozhu took a deep breath, "What a vicious plan."
"Mr. Jiang, your medical skills far surpass Zhao Shuning's. If you go to Xiping in person, you will surely be able to cure the people's hidden ailments and prevent more serious disasters. You are also the most proud grandson of Dr. Jiang, the old doctor, and you represent the Jiang family. The evidence you present to the emperor is weighty and convincing. You are the best person for this matter."
There was already emotion in Jiang Nansheng's eyes.
Xiao Baozhu felt uncomfortable. "You are good at making arrangements. Just move your mouth and let Ah Sheng act as your vanguard."
Lu Zhiran said sincerely, "I admit that I have selfish motives, but this move is also to save the people of Xiping from dire straits, and it may also be beneficial to Mr. Jiang."
"What good can it do for Ah Sheng?"
Lu Zhiran looked deeply at Jiang Nansheng. "Mr. Jiang, nothing can be established without destruction. To break the current deadlock, we need to take drastic measures. This opportunity is rare and must not be missed."
She made a slight gesture where Xiao Baozhu wasn't noticing.
She wrote the character "女".
Jiang Nansheng's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
The two looked at each other for a long time, and everything seemed to be unspoken.
"How could you..."
Lu Zhiran smiled at her, "Mr. Jiang is famous, and I've heard of you a long time ago. I admire you, so I've always paid attention to you."
Xiao Baozhu: ...No, let's just talk business. Why did you suddenly change the subject? Are you acting like she doesn't exist?
There was a slight cracking sound from behind the screen, as if something was crushed, but no one noticed.
As if he had made up his mind, Jiang Nansheng let out a long breath.
"Okay, I've agreed to this. I'll do my best."
Lu Zhiran is right, there is no construction without destruction.
She is the sixth daughter of the Jiang family, not the sixth young master. She wants to prove to her grandfather that women are no worse than men, and that good medical skills are not limited to men or women.
Lu Zhiran smiled with relief, "Thank you, Mr. Jiang!"
Looking at the two of them smiling at each other, Xiao Baozhu inexplicably felt like she was being excluded.
She snorted heavily, "You just go when someone asks you to, without even consulting me!"
Jiang Nansheng said softly, "Baozhu, you know me. When I encounter a patient, I will not hesitate. I also know that you will support me."
Xiao Baozhu was so angry that she almost died. "You have a blockhead. What else do you have in mind besides medical skills?"
Jiang Nansheng smiled and winked at her, "And you. I know you're waiting for me in the capital. Even if I encounter great danger, I will definitely come back safe and sound."
This is the friend who has always protected and cherished me since I was a child. Her importance is no less than that of her medical skills.
Xiao Baozhu's eyes suddenly became hot.
"You said it yourself. If you dare come back with even a scratch, I won't let you go!"
"Yes, sir."
Looking at the two of them, Lu Zhiran felt a deep envy in his heart.
They are both so lucky to have met such a close friend who cares about each other wholeheartedly.
Lu Zhiran reached into his arms and took out something.
It was a golden key, exquisitely crafted, with a small "Lu" character engraved on the inside of the ring, which was easy to overlook if you didn't look carefully.
"I have ordered my steward to buy several herbs, including Schizonepeta tenuifolia, Achyranthes bidentata, and Asteraceae. If you need any, you can take this token to the Chunlai Pharmacy south of Xiping City and find a man named Qin An. I hope I can help you."
Jiang Nansheng didn't refuse and took it directly.
Lu Zhiran bowed to her and said, "On behalf of the people of Xiping, I would like to thank Mr. Jiang for his righteousness. I wish you a safe journey and that Bufan is safe."
After Lu Zhiran left, a person came out from behind the screen.
Xiao Baozhu's eyes nearly popped out of her head. "Seventh Brother, why are you eavesdropping here?"
"I was here first. You came in and started plotting without checking your surroundings. Can you blame me?"
Xiao Baozhu: ...
"Luckily, I'm one of you. If it were someone else, your secrets would have been exposed."
"The Xing family didn't post anything for you."
The Xing family did not send him an invitation, and of course they did not send any invitation to other princes either. He came uninvited.
The Xing family members were trembling with fear when they saw him, fearing that he would take out another imperial edict.
But they were really overthinking it. He was not here to announce the imperial decree, but to watch a show.
His people found out something very interesting, and since he loved to join in the fun, he naturally couldn't be absent.
But at this moment, he no longer had any expectations for the big show, and he felt uncomfortable all over.
"The Jiang family's young genius doctor is indeed famous and has many admirers."
Xiao Yanci reached out and took the golden key from Jiang Nansheng's hand, playing with it in his hand.
"This token is also very exquisite. It can be used as a token of love."
Jiang Nansheng stared at him with strange eyes, then suddenly understood something and raised his hand to fan his nose.
"Huh? Why do I smell such a strong smell of vinegar? Did someone knock over a vinegar jar?"
Xiao Yanci's expression paused.
Xiao Baozhu sniffed hard. "Where? I don't smell it. This place is quite far from the Xing family's kitchen. Who would put a vinegar jar here?"
Jiang Nansheng looked at Xiao Yanci seriously, "Ah Ci, do you smell it?"
Xiao Yanci: ...
"There's something wrong with your nose!"
Jiang Nansheng smiled mischievously, "Oh, then I guess I smelled it wrong."
