After Princess Xuanxue came down from the mountain, the whole capital was in chaos.

Chapter 220 Partiality
When Yuan Qi followed the maid to Sun Changxing's residence, Sun Changxing's head had been wrapped with a bandage, and he was lying there quietly. The doctor whispered something to the Duke of Zhen.

Mrs. Fu sat on the edge of the bed and burst into tears.

"I can't do anything for you. Please hire someone wiser." The old doctor picked up the medicine box and left. When he passed by Yuan Qi, he glanced at Yuan Qi one more time, stopped and said, "Can the little girl's medicine be used?" Sell ​​one to the old man?"

Yuan Qi asked him directly: "Thirty thousand taels a piece, do you want to buy it?"

The old doctor was very surprised: "It's too expensive. I can't afford it."

He shook his head regretfully: "It would be great if the Great Return Pill were cheaper. It could save more people's lives."

Yuan Qi replied: "The materials are rare and hard to find. They are rare in the world. They grow on cliffs and are guarded by birds of prey. That's why they are so expensive."

The old doctor nodded: "No wonder."

When the Duke of Zhen Guo heard this, he sighed: "A big Huan Dan costs thirty thousand taels?"

My flesh hurts. It’s not that I can’t take it out, but it’s just too much.

Yuan Qi looked at Duke Zhen with a half-smile but didn't answer his words. He wouldn't default on his debt, would he?
"Why did the Lord come to see me?" Yuan Qi also looked back at the maids and servants kneeling in the yard, wondering if the Duke of Zhen Guo had found out anything.

"I heard that the seventh lady can communicate with ghosts and gods. I wonder if you can let me have a few words with the waiter?" Zhen Guogong was very haggard and in a depressed mood. He hoped that by talking to his son's ghost, he would know who pushed his son or whether his son was indeed the one who pushed him. He fell down on his own.

Yuan Qi glanced at the boy on the bed, who was sleeping peacefully: "My lord, you'd better check it out yourself. With your methods, I will definitely find out. It's not that I don't help, your son is not dead, he just can't wake up, so it doesn't count." "Shanggui. If you forcefully summon his soul, given his current condition, I am afraid that the soul will not be able to return after leaving the body, and your son will die."

Duke Zhen Guo was stunned: "Is this so?"

He sighed heavily and felt very sorry. He had heard a lot about Yuan Qi and didn't think Yuan Qi would lie to him.

He bowed his hands to Yuan Qi and said, "I'd like to ask Miss Qi to make a trip. I'll collect the 30,000 taels of medicine in two days and I'll send someone to deliver it. I ask Miss Qi to have some grace."

"Easy to say." Yuan Qi said, cupping his fists.

Yuan Qi didn't say anything else, such as how to take care of patients. The old doctor must have given instructions just now.

With such an incident happening at the Duke's Mansion, the guests had no intention of admiring the flowers. Just after lunch, the guests found reasons to leave.

Yuan Qi followed Xiangli Mingzhu back to Jiang Mansion.

Duke Zhenguo and his wife Zhao had a quarrel about Sun Changxing.

Duke Zhen Guo: "Is it a design to harm Changxing?"

Mrs. Zhao was very angry: "There are so many guests in front of me today, and I am too busy to handle it. How can I have time to harm a child? Besides, you and I have been married for so many years, and you don't know what kind of person I am?"

……

On the way, Xiangli Mingzhu talked to Yuan Qi and Jiang Jiulu and Jiang Trulu about the affairs of the Zhenguo Palace. The three children just listened to it as gossip and didn't care.

After hearing this, Jiang Trulu complained: "Mother, you were talking to Mrs. Zhen Guo, but you didn't see that Sun Chang'an always chatted with me and asked me if I would be free in the next few days. He wanted to ask me to climb the mountain together." Jiang Jiu Lu was slightly jealous. Although she looked down on Sun Changan, he was not outstanding in appearance or academic enough. The most important thing was that he failed in the imperial examination last year. Now he did not even have a serious job. Although he was still young, he was too loose and indulgent. , I don’t know how to make progress at all.

But even so, she still felt a sense of loss. How come she and Jiang Trulu were both concubines, so the useless Sun Changan wanted to please Jiang Truffle but not her?
This made her very embarrassed.

Her unhappy look was noticed by Jiang Truffle. Jiang Truffle didn't feel very happy, but felt disgusted: "Mother, Sun Changan is too abrupt. I have taken the initiative to keep a distance from him, and he doesn't He knew how to restrain himself and kept inviting me.”

Xiangli Mingzhu also looked down upon this Sun Changan: "If you don't want to go, don't bother with him. Even if you two are concubines, we can't marry such incompetent people. At the very least, we have to find someone like your brother. "

Jiang Truffle nodded in agreement: "Not bad, not bad. Even if the second brother is not an official in the court, he is still a famous businessman in Kyoto, and he has a good appearance. Who wouldn't praise him when he sees it? The third brother is even better, I hear He said that a few days ago, the State of Qin sent people to persuade the third brother to become the prime minister, but the third brother did not agree. "

Xiangli Mingzhu agreed, but was not very satisfied with Jiang Trulu's words. Logically speaking, with Jiang Junjing and Jiang Junyu's talents, it would be no problem for them to become officials in the court. However, she had selfish motives and was afraid that these two children would surpass Jiang Juncai in their achievements.

She just wanted to keep these two children to help Jiang Juncai, and felt that she could not surpass Jiang Juncai. And the wives they marry in the future cannot be from too high a family background.

Jiang Jiulu and Jiang Junjing and Jiang Junyu are brothers and sisters of the same mother. Li Guiyu often talks about her thoughts about the beauty in front of her children, so when Jiang Jiulu heard what Jiang Truffle said, she felt disgusted and her expression changed. Looks good.

She was different from Jiang Trulu, who had been raised by Xiangli Mingzhu since she was a child, so she naturally considered everything for Xiangli Mingzhu.

Xiangli Mingzhu didn't pay attention to Jiang Jiulu's expression and just talked to Jiang Truffle: "Yes, no matter what, I can't get into my eyes. The son-in-law of our Jiang family can't be a waste."

Yuan Qi was not interested in these things, but she noticed that Jiang Jiulu's expression was unnatural, so she gave her a gentle tug.

Jiang Jiulu felt that Yuan Qi should be closer to her, and she felt inexplicably warm in her heart.

She whispered to Yuan Qi: "I also think that Sun Chang'an is not good. You don't know. Sun Chang'an looks so flattering. He not only pleases me and Sixth Sister, but also pleases Little Master Jiu. Why didn't I notice that he was so kind?" What good poems can he write? I don’t know why Xiao Jiu has always set his sights on such a person.”

It's okay if Jiang Jiulu didn't say this. As soon as he said this, Yuan Qi became more vigilant. Could it be that Xiangli Youming was here for her? She remembered that Xiangli Youming invited Xiangli Mingzhu to take the three of them to Xiangli's house.

Well, even though they rejected him, he still doesn’t give up...

Yuan Qi was also quite speechless.

Nothing more...

Yuan Qi also knew that he was destined for a marriage in this life, and he could not avoid it.

Back at Jiang Mansion, there was a woman in green at the door looking forward to her, not knowing who she was waiting for.

When Yuan Qi got out of the car, he saw another carriage from the Jiang Mansion also stopped, and Jiang Junjing got out of the carriage.

The girl in green came forward and saluted Jiang Jun Jingfu: "Second Master Jiang, I am Zheng Hongxiu...'s maid. Our lady asked me to treat you to tea."

Jiang Junjing frowned slightly. Recently, Xiangli Mingzhu arranged a marriage for him, and Zheng Hongxiu was his newly engaged fiancée.

Is it possible that you don't like him?
