Rebirth of a prosperous doctor girl
Chapter 136 Rescue Shen Hetang
Chapter 136 Rescue Shen Hetang
"Your magistrate is right. Saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. If I have the ability, I am willing to help." Gu Chongyang hardened his heart: "It's a pity that I only have small skills, and I really can't save Dou Dalang from his illness." Li Xingchun, the old doctor, is helpless, and I have little knowledge, and I have nothing to do. You should hire someone else."
Repay grievances with virtue, how can you repay virtue?Master taught her that people respect me one foot, and I respect others one foot.Even if she is willing to take the risk to treat Dou Dalang, if he is not cured, Dou Haoxiao will definitely not give up. In this case, it is better not to treat.
Although Shen Yucheng is kind-hearted, he is not a good person. He also felt that Dou Dalang's meeting today was retribution, and he felt happy in his heart, but he said with relief: "Master Zhifu, although your two families are no longer in-laws, my Shen family also does it. I can’t come out to add insult to injury. My niece is just a child, how can she cure a disease that even the imperial doctor can’t cure? You should hurry up and hire another famous doctor!”
Shen Yucheng also spoke, that is absolutely impossible.
Mrs. Dou wailed loudly, begging Gu Chongyang to show mercy.
The humility on Dou Haoxiao's face disappeared, replaced by viciousness, because of anger, the muscles on his cheeks were trembling slightly: "Shen Yucheng, you are just a small merchant, if it weren't for me, Dou Promotion, how could your business be so big! Since you are shameless, don't blame me, Dou, for being rude. The shame I suffer today will be returned in the future. I want your Shen family to be ruined and kneel down in this house Cry and beg me in front of you!"
Dou Haoxiao gave everyone a vicious look, and pulled Mrs. Dou away from the Shen family.
Mrs. Shen was very worried: "Master, will Prefect Dou harm us?"
"Whether Chongyang saves Dou Dalang or not, Dou Haoxiao will not let us go." Shen Yucheng comforted him softly: "However, Dou Haoxiao has been transferred from Nanjing, and the new Nanjing magistrate is from Baoding. From Shaanxi to Beijing to report on his work, he will arrive in Nanjing after the Mid-Autumn Festival at the latest. Dou Haoxiao will stay in Nanjing for at most three months and will leave soon."
Mrs. Shen was a little relaxed when she heard the words: "Knowing people, knowing faces but not knowing hearts, after so many years, I really didn't expect Dou Haoxiao to be so vicious. He left, and we can live a peaceful life in the future."
Shen Yucheng glanced up and down the family, and said solemnly: "For the remaining three months, we must act carefully and be cautious in every way, and we must not let him take advantage of it. Dou Haoxiao can't catch it, even if he wants to harm us. There is nothing I can do. Brother Qian, Brother Rang and I will go to various stores from tomorrow to tell the shopkeepers and shopkeepers that we must spend these three months safely."
Gu Chongyang reminded: "Uncle, I think Dou Haoxiao may still make a fuss in the drug store. The things sold in other stores will not cause human life lawsuits, but the medicinal materials are different. If something goes wrong, it will be fatal." event."
"You're right. I'm going to ask Shen Hetang's shopkeeper to step up his guard. Besides me, there's also your uncle Yuluo Tang, who lives in the fourth room. I'll tell him to be careful."
Gu Chongyang nodded, always feeling uneasy.The next day, after the class at Jiming Temple was over, she went to report to Wang Jiulang about the situation in the past few days.
"Everything is as usual, sir, and nothing suspicious has been found." Gu Chongyang thought of Mrs. Baozhen's face like a fairy, and sighed slightly in his heart: "Mr. got up early today. When I arrived, she was at the lotus pond in the temple. While collecting dewdrops. Mr. said that the dewdrops on the lotus are contaminated with the fragrance of lotus, and the tea brewed has a natural fragrance of lotus, which can also clear away summer heat and annoyance, promote body fluids and quench thirst.”
At the edge of the lotus pond in the early morning, there is a faint mist. Mr. holds a crystal urn in his hand and stands among the red flowers and green leaves. It is more graceful and moving than the lotus out of the water. The scene is like a beautiful picture scroll, which makes people dazzled.
Wang Jiulang's expression remained unchanged, he didn't look at her, he just stared out of the window, his thoughts seemed to have drifted away: "What else?"
"My husband said that my calligraphy has improved very fast, so I will practice calligraphy at home every day, and she will make comments when I come the next day. After that, I will come every day, stop learning calligraphy, and start learning painting skills."
I don't know when it started, Wang Jiulang not only asked about Mrs. Baozhen, but also asked her about the progress of her studies.
"Mr. said that painting skills can't be learned in a day or two. She will teach me to evaluate paintings first, and then teach me to write when I can tell whether a painting is good or bad."
Wang Jiulang nodded, quite satisfied with Gu Chongyang's answer, when he raised his head, he saw Gu Chongyang frowning tightly, with a hesitant expression on his face, obviously he had encountered something troublesome.
Looking at each other, Gu Chongyang quickly raised a smiling face: "Jiulang, there is something I want to ask you for help?"
Hearing this, Wang Jiulang, who was leaning on the chair, immediately sat upright, as if listening attentively.
He was so solemn, but Gu Chongyang felt a little embarrassed: "It's not a big deal, just Dou Haoxiao, he threatened that he would never let the Shen family go. Seeing that he will leave Nanjing in three months, I think this He will definitely make trouble in March. As you know, the Shen family is just a merchant, and Dou Haoxiao is a magistrate. As the saying goes, the county magistrate who confiscated the house, and the governor who killed the family. Although the Shen family has a clear conscience, they can't bear it. Dou Haoxiao deliberately framed him."
Seeing that Wang Jiulang was silent and only stared at her coldly, Gu Chongyang quickly poured a cup of tea and offered it to him personally, and said with a doggy smile: "I know you have good hands and eyes, and you are upright. Sit back and watch Dou Haoxiao bully others with power, right?"
Holding the teacup in both hands, she stared at him with big black and white eyes, full of anticipation.
Ruifeng, who was guarding the door, couldn't help laughing. If it wasn't for the safety of the Shen family and Ms. Gu, how could Master Jiu use his contacts to persuade Dou Haoxiao to leave Nanjing? Will Dou Haoxiao be allowed to frame the Shen family in the remaining three months?
As long as Master Jiu tells Miss Gu the truth at this time, I believe Miss Gu will be very grateful to Master Jiu, and maybe he will agree with him.
The more Ruifeng thought about it, the more excited he became, he couldn't help but prick up his ears, and listened to the conversation between the two inside without moving.
"I do have hands and eyes open to the sky, and I am righteous..." Wang Jiulang parted his thin lips lightly, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "But the Shen family is just a small business, what good will it do me if I help you?"
Wang Jiulang looked at her without blinking, with a playful thought in his heart.He wants to see how this little girl will respond.
Yes, what good is it to him?
Gu Chongyang couldn't answer, so he couldn't help but lower his head and think.Do you want to exchange yourself for saving Mrs. Baozhen's life?
No, no, you must not say it lightly until your life is at stake.
But she is not someone who gives up easily, she raised her head and smiled at Wang Jiulang: "What do you want in return, Jiulang?"
Wang Jiulang couldn't help being surprised to see her bowing her head and frowning in thought one second, and looking at him with a smile on her face the next second.
Now, Wang Jiulang was stunned.This little girl is really cunning to kick the ball back.
His heroic eyebrows were raised slightly, and his indifferent eyes were slightly widened in surprise, gleaming like ink.
Gu Chongyang smiled slightly: "Jiulang, I know you don't need anything, but your health is not very good. Why don't you help me this time, and I'll help you heal your illness, okay?"
Unexpectedly, Wang Jiulang got up suddenly, his face was gloomy, and his eyes were as cold as the moon shooting the cold river.
Gu Chongyang's heart couldn't help but tighten.
Why is he suddenly angry?Why don't you want to treat him yourself?Obviously mentioning his illness reminded him of a painful past.
"Jiulang." Gu Chongyang stood up, wanting to take the opportunity to persuade him, but Wang Jiulang suddenly turned his head and walked away.
Gu Chongyang wanted to chase, but was stopped by Ruifeng at the door: "Miss Gu, please stop, Master Jiu doesn't like people following."
Ruifeng's hand rested lightly on her arm. Gu Chongyang wanted to push his hand away, but found that he was as firm as a rock. Not only could she not push it, but she couldn't even take a step forward.
Gu Chongyang was taken aback: "Uncle Ruifeng, you..."
Ruifeng's face was full of anger, and his tone was sharp: "Miss Gu, you are a guest, so it's too much to pry into the privacy of the master like this! Master Jiu is in good health, don't worry about it!"
Jiu Ye's illness is a physical disease, and even more a heart disease. No matter how many medical doctors are helpless, every time he mentions it, it will only make Jiu Ye fall into pain.His life was saved by the master. Before he died, the master asked him to take good care of Master Jiu. It was his dereliction of duty and failure to take good care of Master Jiu, which made him suffer from illness.But he must not allow anyone to make things worse for Master Jiu and make him suffer even more.
Ruifeng has annoyance, self-blame, and of course dissatisfaction with Gu Chongyang.
In the past few months, he has always been easy to get along with with a smile on his face. It was the first time for Gu Chongyang to see Uncle Ruifeng so angry. She suddenly realized that maybe she shouldn't ask about Wang Jiulang's illness.
She let go and apologized: "Uncle Ruifeng, I was wrong just now. But I didn't mean it, I just wanted to treat Jiulang..."
"Miss Gu!" Ruifeng immediately interrupted her: "Jiuye is in good health, free from illness, and does not need your medical treatment, not now, nor in the future."
"Yes." Gu Chongyang suppressed his confusion and said softly, "I overstepped."
"Miss Gu will often walk in front of Jiulang in the future, and the matter of medical treatment must not be brought up again in the future, otherwise it will only displease Jiulang, and it will do no good to Miss Gu." Ruifeng nodded when she saw her, like a delicate flower The same expression seemed to be a little disturbed, and his tone softened: "I'll take you out."
Inquiring about Wang Jiulang's illness was driven by both curiosity and good intentions. I didn't expect to end up with such a result, completely blocking the road.
Naturally, Gu Chongyang would not give up. Since he couldn't treat him openly, then he should do it secretly. As long as he observed the situation with him every day, she didn't believe that she couldn't find any clues.
But Wang Jiulang seemed to know what she was thinking. After that day, he disappeared completely.Ask Ruifeng, he only said that Wang Jiulang is busy building a public temple.
Time passed quickly, and it was the end of July in a blink of an eye. I thought everything would be calm, but suddenly in one afternoon, Dou Haoxiao broke into Shen He Tang with a team of officers and soldiers like wolves and tigers.
The patients who came to grab the medicine were driven out, and all the shopkeepers were arrested.
Shen Yucheng rushed over upon hearing the news, and was naturally dissatisfied: "Master Dou, in broad daylight, the universe is open, and Shen Hetang obeys the law. Why do you arrest people for no reason?"
"Arresting people for no reason?" Dou Haoxiao sneered, opened a medicine cabinet at random, grabbed a handful of medicines and threw them in front of Shen Yucheng: "Someone reported that Shen Hetang was selling fake medicines. I don't believe it. It's just a matter of routine. I came to check, but I didn’t expect to find fake medicine! Now that there are all witnesses and evidence, what do you say?”
Shen Yucheng didn't believe it, and slapped the donkey-hide gelatin on the table hard. The donkey-hide gelatin was soft but not broken, which was obviously fake.
Shen Yucheng's face was pale, and he looked at the donkey-hide gelatin in disbelief: "This... this donkey-hide gelatin does not belong to our Shen Hetang, someone framed it..."
He just came to inspect it this morning, and the shopkeeper said that everything is as usual, so why is there fake donkey-hide gelatin.It must be that Dou Haoxiao bought people from the pharmacy and deliberately framed him.
Shen Yucheng glared at the shopkeepers and shop assistants: "Who deliberately harmed me?"
The shopkeeper and the staff trembled under the pressure of the officials, and shook their heads: "Master, it's not us..."
In the blink of an eye, many people gathered around the door of the shop. They didn't know how to distinguish the authenticity of the medicinal materials, but they liked to coax the trend, and they all just watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal.
Gu Chongyang arrived afterward, only to see Shen Yucheng's face was terrifyingly pale, and he only stared at Dou Haoxiao with hatred: "You and I have broken the relationship between our two families, so why do you have to do it?"
Dou Haoxiao lowered his voice, gritted his teeth and said, "Shen Yucheng! You are the one who did everything! If it wasn't for you, how could Dalang die? Your Shen family killed my son, and I want your entire Shen family to be buried with you! Shen Hetang is just the beginning, I want you to watch with your own eyes that the shops of the Shen family are closed down one by one, and the members of the Shen family are beheaded one by one."
After finishing speaking, he pushed Shen Yucheng to the door and said to Gu Chongyang loudly: "Master Shen, Miss Biao, I know you will definitely not admit that Shen Hetang sells fake medicines. The government specially invited two masters of classic medicine from Nanjing Tai Hospital to distinguish the authenticity of the medicinal materials, so that Shen Hetang will not be wronged. At the same time, the government gave Shen Hetang a chance to defend himself like last time. Miss Biao, If you have any evidence, you can present it!"
From the moment he saw his uncle's face, Gu Chongyang knew that something was wrong. With the previous experience, Dou Haoxiao must have made sufficient preparations this time.Gu Chongyang ran into the shop, saw the donkey-hide gelatin on the table, his eyelids twitched.
Later, she opened several medicine cabinets and found fake tiger bones made from beef bones, Gastrodia elata made from radish and potato, Tianqi made from ginger, saffron made from dyed day lily...
The more she looked at her, the more frightened she became, and the more she looked at her, the more uncertain she became.
At the end of July, Nanjing was the hottest time of the year, but she felt as if she had fallen into an ice hole, her hands and feet were cold.
If only one medicine is fake, it can also be said that it was not paid attention when buying it, but there are so many fake medicines, even if you jump into the Yellow River, you can't clean them up.
Dou Haoxiao came prepared, and this time he will not let the Shen family go.In the previous life, my uncle died after King Rong successfully rebelled and was overthrown by Wang Jiulang. Could it be that he was going to be killed by Dou Haoxiao so early in this life?
If she couldn't protect her mother, couldn't she even protect her uncle?
She thought of the loving eyes of her uncle and aunt, the gentle cousin Su'e, the lively and outgoing cousin Suying, the two cousins, the cousin who just gave birth to a nephew, the lovely Zhaodi and Tiantian...all of this Do we all return to the dust and disappear like our mother?
No, no, no, absolutely not!She can die, she can die, but the Shen family must be preserved.
Gu Chongyang wiped the tears from his eyes and clenched his fists tightly. The medicines were fine in the morning, but after a short lunch break, the medicines were replaced. Who did it?As long as this person is found, the Shen family will be innocent.
But Dou Haoxiao didn't give her this chance. He walked in and looked at Gu Chongyang with a ferocious face: "Miss Biao, aren't you highly skilled in medicine and familiar with pharmacology? Aren't you eloquent and eloquent? This time , I see what else you have to say!"
She glared at Dou Haoxiao angrily, clenched her fists, and couldn't help shaking slightly, she had never been so helpless as now.
She is from Qingyanghou's mansion. Although her cousin Gu Weirui is Qingyanghou, but because of his frail health, he only holds a false position and has no real power. Even if she wants to ask the Gu family for help, she can't.
The only trump card in her hand right now is that she knows that Dou Haoxiao has taken refuge in King Rong, and she also knows that King Rong is secretly planning to rebel.She can use this to threaten Dou Haoxiao, but if she does so, she can only delay for a while, but it will bring more serious consequences.
"Winner and loser, I have nothing to say!" Gu Chongyang glanced at Dou Haoxiao, and said contemptuously: "Even if something happens to Shen Hetang, you just seal up the shop and arrest people. If you have the ability to arrest people, so can I." let you let him go."
Fortunately, he can only catch the uncle, and she can still find a way to rescue him.
"How dare you speak hard when you are about to die!" Dou Haoxiao looked at Gu Chongyang like a poisoned knife: "You only dare to show off your power like this because you are the lady of the Qingyang Houfu, but this is Nanjing. It's my Dou Haoxiao's site, I said you are the daughter of the Hou Fu, you are, I said you are an accomplice in selling fake medicines, who would dare to question it! You killed my son, I want your life!"
The last sentence, with gritted teeth and a fierce look in his eyes, was obviously not casually said.
"You are so courageous!" Gu Chongyang felt a chill in his heart, and his face showed a bit of anxiety.She also didn't expect Dou Haoxiao to be so rampant.
"How courageous I am, just give it a try."
Dou Haoxiao took a step forward, waved his hand and was about to have Gu Chongyang arrested, when he heard the voice of the Imperial Medicine from outside: "Oh, Ji Yufeng, why are you here?"
The Great Qi Dynasty established imperial hospitals in both the capital and Nanjing, and the Imperial Hospital in Nanjing was subordinate to the Imperial Hospital in Beijing.Ji Yufeng is the chief of the Royal Pharmacy Bureau of the Taiyuan Hospital. He is usually in the capital and rarely comes to Nanjing.Therefore, Canon Yao was a little surprised when he saw it, and hurriedly saluted.
Ji Yufeng said in a loud voice: "I was ordered by the envoy of the hospital to select medicine merchants with genuine medicinal materials and standardized processing as the royal merchants of the Taiyuan Hospital. Wang Jiulang of Duke Wen Guo specially recommended Shen Hetang to me. This is coming."
"By the way, this is Wang Jiulang." Ji Yufeng said with a smile: "Biao Miss Shen Hetang saved Mrs. Baozhen's life by chance, and used Shen Hetang's medicine to treat Mrs. Baozhen's illness. I also heard about Shen Hetang He is kind and generous, and the goods are genuine, and we have decided to use Shen Hetang's medicinal materials as imperial medicine."
Ji Yufeng frowned and said, "By the way, why didn't you work in the Imperial Hospital today? What's the matter here?"
It used to be fine, but it's fine now.
In the July weather, Dian Yao couldn't help but break out in cold sweat: "Xiaguan...Xiaguan came to Shen Hetang today because he heard that Shen Hetang is very good at processing medicinal materials, so he came here specially to ask Shen Hetang's processing master for processing techniques. .”
Ji Yufeng patted Dian Yao on the shoulder, and praised: "I often stay in the capital, and rarely come to Nanjing. I didn't expect you to be so open-minded and eager to learn. It's really good!"
The classic medicine was praised with elation: "This is the master's teaching, and the lower officials are just following the master's orders at all times, and study hard to learn the knowledge of medicinal materials so that they can serve the emperor."
Dou Haoxiao heard all this clearly, and he couldn't help being surprised.
Shen Hetang actually has something to do with Wang Jiulang?Didn't Wang Jiulang live in a simple place and avoid seeing guests?Is he here too?
Thinking this way in his heart, Dou Haoxiao hurried out, surrounded by many people outside, including neighbors watching the excitement, yamen servants, and people from the Shen family, but he still saw Wang Jiulang in white clothes and ordinary clothes at the first sight.
His appearance is so outstanding, like jade in the rubble, shining brightly, it's hard for people not to notice.
There was a glimmer of gloom in Dou Haoxiao's eyes, knowing that today might just end in haste.
He took a step forward, cupped his hands and said in a loud voice: "Nanjing prefect Dou Haoxiao, I met Jiulang. I was in a hurry that day, and I don't want to meet again today. How is Jiulang?"
Wang Jiulang was ordered by the emperor to go to Nanjing to build a public temple. On the first day he first arrived in Nanjing, officials of all sizes from the Nanjing government, dignitaries, gentry, and scholars came to the post station to greet him. The Duke's Mansion also did not participate in the reception banquet carefully prepared by Dou Haoxiao, but went directly to Jiming Temple.
Everyone in the world knows that Wang Jiulang is proud of his talent and unrestrained, so it's not surprising.
"It turned out to be the prefect of Dou." Wang Jiulang nodded, and instead of answering Dou Haoxiao's greeting, he asked calmly, "What is the prefect of Dou busy with?"
His tone was very normal, and when he was speaking, his eyes casually passed over Dou Haoxiao's face, Dou Haoxiao's heart skipped a beat, and he didn't dare to look at him, so he quickly lowered his head.
When he lowered his head, he felt a little annoyed that he, the dignified fourth-rank magistrate, actually bowed his head in front of a fifth-rank official of the Imperial Academy, and what was even more exasperating was that this person was not much older than his son.
But the annoyance was annoyance, and he didn't dare to show it at all on his face.He also knew that Wang Jiulang would never come to Shen Hetang to support the Shen family for no reason. As for the life-saving grace that Ji Yufeng said just now, it was even more nonsense.
Perhaps, things are not what I think, Wang Jiulang's coming to Shen Hetang is just a coincidence, after all, with the family status of Shen's family, it is really not worthy of Wang Jiulang's attention.
Dou Haoxiao secretly calmed himself down, and tentatively said: "I heard people report that Shen Hetang sold fake medicines and harmed the neighbors, so I came here to investigate."
In front of Wang Jiulang, he really didn't have the guts to call himself the mansion and official.
Whether he came to support Shen Yucheng or not depends on how Wang Jiulang responds next.
"Oh?" Wang Jiulang raised the corners of his mouth lightly, his voice remained the same as before, as if this was really such an insignificant matter: "Then what did you find out?"
Dou Haoxiao couldn't help but feel happy, it seems that Wang Jiulang really doesn't know the Shen family well, so he made the right bet.
He suddenly raised his head and looked at Wang Jiulang.
Wang Jiulang's face remained the same, still calm and breezy, but his eyes were colder than Dongyue and sharper than a knife's edge. Dou Haoxiao felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, and suddenly gave birth to the idea that if he said half a sentence wrong, he would be killed. The feeling of being executed late.
And Ji Yufeng of the Royal Pharmacy Bureau of the Imperial Hospital looked at Wang Jiulang obsequiously, not to mention the classic medicines, as if trembling for fear of making a wrong move.
Originally, he wanted to blurt out that Shen Hetang was selling fake medicines. The fake medicines were in the medicine cabinet of Shen's family.
Dou Haoxiao lowered his head again, feeling the sharp knife-like gaze stay on him all the time, and said with difficulty: "I found nothing, maybe the person who reported it was talking nonsense."
This is Ao Gongqing, Wang Jiulang who despises princes and princes. He doesn't need to say anything, just a look will make him crumble.Even in front of the emperor and his master, he had never been so nervous before.
Dou Haoxiao's back was tense, his mouth and tongue were dry, and his throat was tight.
"Hmm." Wang Jiulang's voice was still calm: "It's so good, I'm still worried that I recommended the wrong person to Ji Yufeng."
"Where, where!" Ji Yufeng smiled and took over the conversation: "Since it was recommended by you, how can there be any mistakes. You look at the plaque on it, it says authentic medicinal materials, herbs for the people, or specially made by the Nanjing government government , I think the prefect of Dou also recognizes Shen Hetang. The official is in a hurry to find a pharmacy, and you have solved my urgent need."
Wang Jiulang nodded: "Since that's the case, you can talk to Mr. Shen about the matter of the Imperial Medicine Royal Merchant."
"It's natural!" Ji Yufeng turned to Shen Yucheng and said, "When Mr. Shen is free, please discuss with me about offering imperial medicine."
Only then did Shen Yucheng react from the shock, and he was flattered and said to Ji Yufeng: "Caomin has time at any time, it's all up to adults to arrange."
Just now he almost became a prisoner of mermaid meat, and in a blink of an eye he will become an imperial medicine merchant after the crisis is resolved.
He looked at Wang Jiulang gratefully, and wanted to come forward to thank him, but Wang Jiulang stopped him with a look.
At this moment, a young Toshihiko suddenly ran out from the crowd, and he shouted excitedly: "Student Tang Yiqing, the head of the Nanjing County trial case last year, Jiumu Jiurou's daimyo, Chikuro is here, and I am here to pay a special visit."
While talking, he bent down like a spring onion and bowed down.Because he was too nervous, he almost fell when he bowed down and rushed to Wang Jiulang's side.
If Wang Jiulang hadn't reached out to help him, he would have almost bumped into Wang Jiulang.
Tang Yiqing's face turned pale all of a sudden, he took a step back in a hurry, and said in embarrassment: "The student is disrespectful, and I am ashamed to see Jiulang, so I will step back."
Mr. Yushu, Jiulang of the Wang family, Lang Yan is unique and unique in the world. Which scholar in the world does not know this sentence?In addition to his outstanding appearance and extraordinary talent, the world knows that Jiulang is arrogant and can't be wrong in front of him.
He actually made such a big mistake in front of Wang Jiulang, this incident is simply a great shame in his life.
Tang Yiqing felt that his life was full of gloom.
Unexpectedly, Wang Jiulang said gently: "People are not sages and sages are all faultless. You are too excited to meet each other suddenly, which proves that you have a pure heart. There are many people today, and it is not an ordinary place. You can go to the chicken in another day." Ming Temple for a while."
Tang Yiqing felt that he was alive again, that the blood in his whole body was gushing, his face was flushed, and his whole body was shaking with excitement.
He actually got an invitation from Wang Jiulang, son of Yushu. Wang Jiulang invited him to Jiming Temple for a talk. He was not dreaming!Tang Yiqing quickly pinched himself and felt a pain in his thigh, only then did he know that he was not dreaming.
When Wang Jiulang was talking to Tang Yiqing, Dou Haoxiao felt the threatening gaze leave him. He was drenched in sweat all over his body. Not only was he disheartened, but he was also secretly startled. Wang Jiulang would actually support Shen Yucheng. , why, why?
He gave Shen Yucheng a vicious look, and saw that he was standing next to Wang Jiulang, but suddenly greeted the crowd.Under his command, everyone pushed away one step to make way for Wang Jiulang.
Unexpectedly, Wang Jiulang was not in a hurry to leave, he just turned his head to the pharmacy and said, "What are you doing hiding in there, come out soon, come back to Jiming Temple with me!"
His voice was not loud, but Gu Chongyang could still hear it clearly, not only that, she could even feel a little impatience in his tone.But to Gu Chongyang's ears, this voice was undoubtedly like the sounds of nature.
There were many people in the pharmacy, but she knew that Wang Jiulang was speaking to her.A smile crept onto the corner of her mouth unconsciously, and she walked out of the pharmacy quickly with light steps.
"Jiulang!" She smiled, as beautiful as a flower, with a bright smile and white teeth, which made Wang Jiulang's eyes involuntarily dodge.
"Let's go!" His voice was indifferent as usual, he nodded to everyone and strode away.
Gu Chongyang followed with a smile, not paying attention to the surprised or envious eyes of the people around him.
Dou Haoxiao opened his mouth wide, and the moment he saw Gu Chongyang coming out of the pharmacy, he suddenly realized that this was the place Wang Jiulang valued most in the Shen family.
He gritted his teeth tightly, and gave Shen Yucheng a gloomy look. You are lucky to have such a beautiful niece.
Wang Jiulang strode forward, walking very fast, Gu Chongyang could only trot to keep up.
He was very tall, and when he walked, his clothes moved with the wind, floating like a dragon, she could only see his tall and wide back, and his thick hair like ink.
She ran out of breath, and he walked quickly into the thunderstorm, without any intention of stopping to wait for her, but Gu Chongyang was not angry at all, and just followed behind Wang Jiulang.He did her a great favor by resolving Shen Hetang's crisis. Gu Chongyang saw that there was nothing unpleasant about him, not to mention trotting behind him like this, or asking her to serve him tea and water, bowing to him, and she It's also very persuasive.
Wang Jiulang boarded the carriage, but Gu Chongyang was dumbfounded.
There is only one carriage. If she goes up, won't she be sitting with Wang Jiulang? Will he let him go up?But last time he was so angry and left with a flick of his sleeve, and later avoided seeing her again. Who knows if he is still angry with her?
Although he helped her today, she didn't think that Wang Jiulang had forgiven her for transgressing the rules.
If she didn't go up, she would have to follow the carriage from here to Jiming Temple on foot, not to mention that she had never walked such a long distance on foot, even if she could, she would not be able to keep up with the speed of the carriage.
Just when she was hesitating, the curtain of the carriage was suddenly lifted by a slender, white hand with sharp knuckles, and Wang Jiulang glanced at her impatiently.
Meaning why are you still not coming up?
Gu Chongyang glanced at Wang Jiulang, and felt intuitively that he meant to let her go up, but he was afraid that he would guess wrong, wouldn't it be embarrassing to get in the car rashly?
She looked at Wang Jiulang in embarrassment, hoping that he could say something.If he let her run with the carriage, for the sake of him descending from the sky to save her uncle today, she would break her leg and her shoes, no matter what.
Wang Jiulang couldn't help sighing when he saw that she was hesitant at first, then embarrassed, and then looked deathly at home.Isn't this little girl very courageous?Why is he timid now, he is eight years older than her, so he can be her elder, why not share a car together?
Is it so difficult for her to sit in the same car as me?
Seeing that it was getting late, Wang Jiulang shook his head helplessly and leaned out.
Gu Chongyang was still thinking about it, when he saw a slender hand stretched out in front of him. This is... to pull him into the car?
She glanced at Wang Jiulang, only to see that he frowned slightly, as if impatient, quickly put her hand in his, and he pulled him into the carriage.
The boy following the carriage, Ashe, rubbed his eyes, and asked with disbelief, "Uncle Ruifeng, was it just me who was dazzled just now? Master Jiu actually pulled Miss Gu into the carriage by himself?"
Ruifeng scolded in a low voice: "What does the Lord do, he naturally has his considerations, so why should he report to you?"
After being reprimanded, Asher lowered his head angrily and said, "I know I was wrong."
"It's good to know what's wrong." Ruifeng turned his head, his shrewd eyes filled with a faint smile.

"Your magistrate is right. Saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. If I have the ability, I am willing to help." Gu Chongyang hardened his heart: "It's a pity that I only have small skills, and I really can't save Dou Dalang from his illness." Li Xingchun, the old doctor, is helpless, and I have little knowledge, and I have nothing to do. You should hire someone else."
Repay grievances with virtue, how can you repay virtue?Master taught her that people respect me one foot, and I respect others one foot.Even if she is willing to take the risk to treat Dou Dalang, if he is not cured, Dou Haoxiao will definitely not give up. In this case, it is better not to treat.
Although Shen Yucheng is kind-hearted, he is not a good person. He also felt that Dou Dalang's meeting today was retribution, and he felt happy in his heart, but he said with relief: "Master Zhifu, although your two families are no longer in-laws, my Shen family also does it. I can’t come out to add insult to injury. My niece is just a child, how can she cure a disease that even the imperial doctor can’t cure? You should hurry up and hire another famous doctor!”
Shen Yucheng also spoke, that is absolutely impossible.
Mrs. Dou wailed loudly, begging Gu Chongyang to show mercy.
The humility on Dou Haoxiao's face disappeared, replaced by viciousness, because of anger, the muscles on his cheeks were trembling slightly: "Shen Yucheng, you are just a small merchant, if it weren't for me, Dou Promotion, how could your business be so big! Since you are shameless, don't blame me, Dou, for being rude. The shame I suffer today will be returned in the future. I want your Shen family to be ruined and kneel down in this house Cry and beg me in front of you!"
Dou Haoxiao gave everyone a vicious look, and pulled Mrs. Dou away from the Shen family.
Mrs. Shen was very worried: "Master, will Prefect Dou harm us?"
"Whether Chongyang saves Dou Dalang or not, Dou Haoxiao will not let us go." Shen Yucheng comforted him softly: "However, Dou Haoxiao has been transferred from Nanjing, and the new Nanjing magistrate is from Baoding. From Shaanxi to Beijing to report on his work, he will arrive in Nanjing after the Mid-Autumn Festival at the latest. Dou Haoxiao will stay in Nanjing for at most three months and will leave soon."
Mrs. Shen was a little relaxed when she heard the words: "Knowing people, knowing faces but not knowing hearts, after so many years, I really didn't expect Dou Haoxiao to be so vicious. He left, and we can live a peaceful life in the future."
Shen Yucheng glanced up and down the family, and said solemnly: "For the remaining three months, we must act carefully and be cautious in every way, and we must not let him take advantage of it. Dou Haoxiao can't catch it, even if he wants to harm us. There is nothing I can do. Brother Qian, Brother Rang and I will go to various stores from tomorrow to tell the shopkeepers and shopkeepers that we must spend these three months safely."
Gu Chongyang reminded: "Uncle, I think Dou Haoxiao may still make a fuss in the drug store. The things sold in other stores will not cause human life lawsuits, but the medicinal materials are different. If something goes wrong, it will be fatal." event."
"You're right. I'm going to ask Shen Hetang's shopkeeper to step up his guard. Besides me, there's also your uncle Yuluo Tang, who lives in the fourth room. I'll tell him to be careful."
Gu Chongyang nodded, always feeling uneasy.The next day, after the class at Jiming Temple was over, she went to report to Wang Jiulang about the situation in the past few days.
"Everything is as usual, sir, and nothing suspicious has been found." Gu Chongyang thought of Mrs. Baozhen's face like a fairy, and sighed slightly in his heart: "Mr. got up early today. When I arrived, she was at the lotus pond in the temple. While collecting dewdrops. Mr. said that the dewdrops on the lotus are contaminated with the fragrance of lotus, and the tea brewed has a natural fragrance of lotus, which can also clear away summer heat and annoyance, promote body fluids and quench thirst.”
At the edge of the lotus pond in the early morning, there is a faint mist. Mr. holds a crystal urn in his hand and stands among the red flowers and green leaves. It is more graceful and moving than the lotus out of the water. The scene is like a beautiful picture scroll, which makes people dazzled.
Wang Jiulang's expression remained unchanged, he didn't look at her, he just stared out of the window, his thoughts seemed to have drifted away: "What else?"
"My husband said that my calligraphy has improved very fast, so I will practice calligraphy at home every day, and she will make comments when I come the next day. After that, I will come every day, stop learning calligraphy, and start learning painting skills."
I don't know when it started, Wang Jiulang not only asked about Mrs. Baozhen, but also asked her about the progress of her studies.
"Mr. said that painting skills can't be learned in a day or two. She will teach me to evaluate paintings first, and then teach me to write when I can tell whether a painting is good or bad."
Wang Jiulang nodded, quite satisfied with Gu Chongyang's answer, when he raised his head, he saw Gu Chongyang frowning tightly, with a hesitant expression on his face, obviously he had encountered something troublesome.
Looking at each other, Gu Chongyang quickly raised a smiling face: "Jiulang, there is something I want to ask you for help?"
Hearing this, Wang Jiulang, who was leaning on the chair, immediately sat upright, as if listening attentively.
He was so solemn, but Gu Chongyang felt a little embarrassed: "It's not a big deal, just Dou Haoxiao, he threatened that he would never let the Shen family go. Seeing that he will leave Nanjing in three months, I think this He will definitely make trouble in March. As you know, the Shen family is just a merchant, and Dou Haoxiao is a magistrate. As the saying goes, the county magistrate who confiscated the house, and the governor who killed the family. Although the Shen family has a clear conscience, they can't bear it. Dou Haoxiao deliberately framed him."
Seeing that Wang Jiulang was silent and only stared at her coldly, Gu Chongyang quickly poured a cup of tea and offered it to him personally, and said with a doggy smile: "I know you have good hands and eyes, and you are upright. Sit back and watch Dou Haoxiao bully others with power, right?"
Holding the teacup in both hands, she stared at him with big black and white eyes, full of anticipation.
Ruifeng, who was guarding the door, couldn't help laughing. If it wasn't for the safety of the Shen family and Ms. Gu, how could Master Jiu use his contacts to persuade Dou Haoxiao to leave Nanjing? Will Dou Haoxiao be allowed to frame the Shen family in the remaining three months?
As long as Master Jiu tells Miss Gu the truth at this time, I believe Miss Gu will be very grateful to Master Jiu, and maybe he will agree with him.
The more Ruifeng thought about it, the more excited he became, he couldn't help but prick up his ears, and listened to the conversation between the two inside without moving.
"I do have hands and eyes open to the sky, and I am righteous..." Wang Jiulang parted his thin lips lightly, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "But the Shen family is just a small business, what good will it do me if I help you?"
Wang Jiulang looked at her without blinking, with a playful thought in his heart.He wants to see how this little girl will respond.
Yes, what good is it to him?
Gu Chongyang couldn't answer, so he couldn't help but lower his head and think.Do you want to exchange yourself for saving Mrs. Baozhen's life?
No, no, you must not say it lightly until your life is at stake.
But she is not someone who gives up easily, she raised her head and smiled at Wang Jiulang: "What do you want in return, Jiulang?"
Wang Jiulang couldn't help being surprised to see her bowing her head and frowning in thought one second, and looking at him with a smile on her face the next second.
Now, Wang Jiulang was stunned.This little girl is really cunning to kick the ball back.
His heroic eyebrows were raised slightly, and his indifferent eyes were slightly widened in surprise, gleaming like ink.
Gu Chongyang smiled slightly: "Jiulang, I know you don't need anything, but your health is not very good. Why don't you help me this time, and I'll help you heal your illness, okay?"
Unexpectedly, Wang Jiulang got up suddenly, his face was gloomy, and his eyes were as cold as the moon shooting the cold river.
Gu Chongyang's heart couldn't help but tighten.
Why is he suddenly angry?Why don't you want to treat him yourself?Obviously mentioning his illness reminded him of a painful past.
"Jiulang." Gu Chongyang stood up, wanting to take the opportunity to persuade him, but Wang Jiulang suddenly turned his head and walked away.
Gu Chongyang wanted to chase, but was stopped by Ruifeng at the door: "Miss Gu, please stop, Master Jiu doesn't like people following."
Ruifeng's hand rested lightly on her arm. Gu Chongyang wanted to push his hand away, but found that he was as firm as a rock. Not only could she not push it, but she couldn't even take a step forward.
Gu Chongyang was taken aback: "Uncle Ruifeng, you..."
Ruifeng's face was full of anger, and his tone was sharp: "Miss Gu, you are a guest, so it's too much to pry into the privacy of the master like this! Master Jiu is in good health, don't worry about it!"
Jiu Ye's illness is a physical disease, and even more a heart disease. No matter how many medical doctors are helpless, every time he mentions it, it will only make Jiu Ye fall into pain.His life was saved by the master. Before he died, the master asked him to take good care of Master Jiu. It was his dereliction of duty and failure to take good care of Master Jiu, which made him suffer from illness.But he must not allow anyone to make things worse for Master Jiu and make him suffer even more.
Ruifeng has annoyance, self-blame, and of course dissatisfaction with Gu Chongyang.
In the past few months, he has always been easy to get along with with a smile on his face. It was the first time for Gu Chongyang to see Uncle Ruifeng so angry. She suddenly realized that maybe she shouldn't ask about Wang Jiulang's illness.
She let go and apologized: "Uncle Ruifeng, I was wrong just now. But I didn't mean it, I just wanted to treat Jiulang..."
"Miss Gu!" Ruifeng immediately interrupted her: "Jiuye is in good health, free from illness, and does not need your medical treatment, not now, nor in the future."
"Yes." Gu Chongyang suppressed his confusion and said softly, "I overstepped."
"Miss Gu will often walk in front of Jiulang in the future, and the matter of medical treatment must not be brought up again in the future, otherwise it will only displease Jiulang, and it will do no good to Miss Gu." Ruifeng nodded when she saw her, like a delicate flower The same expression seemed to be a little disturbed, and his tone softened: "I'll take you out."
Inquiring about Wang Jiulang's illness was driven by both curiosity and good intentions. I didn't expect to end up with such a result, completely blocking the road.
Naturally, Gu Chongyang would not give up. Since he couldn't treat him openly, then he should do it secretly. As long as he observed the situation with him every day, she didn't believe that she couldn't find any clues.
But Wang Jiulang seemed to know what she was thinking. After that day, he disappeared completely.Ask Ruifeng, he only said that Wang Jiulang is busy building a public temple.
Time passed quickly, and it was the end of July in a blink of an eye. I thought everything would be calm, but suddenly in one afternoon, Dou Haoxiao broke into Shen He Tang with a team of officers and soldiers like wolves and tigers.
The patients who came to grab the medicine were driven out, and all the shopkeepers were arrested.
Shen Yucheng rushed over upon hearing the news, and was naturally dissatisfied: "Master Dou, in broad daylight, the universe is open, and Shen Hetang obeys the law. Why do you arrest people for no reason?"
"Arresting people for no reason?" Dou Haoxiao sneered, opened a medicine cabinet at random, grabbed a handful of medicines and threw them in front of Shen Yucheng: "Someone reported that Shen Hetang was selling fake medicines. I don't believe it. It's just a matter of routine. I came to check, but I didn’t expect to find fake medicine! Now that there are all witnesses and evidence, what do you say?”
Shen Yucheng didn't believe it, and slapped the donkey-hide gelatin on the table hard. The donkey-hide gelatin was soft but not broken, which was obviously fake.
Shen Yucheng's face was pale, and he looked at the donkey-hide gelatin in disbelief: "This... this donkey-hide gelatin does not belong to our Shen Hetang, someone framed it..."
He just came to inspect it this morning, and the shopkeeper said that everything is as usual, so why is there fake donkey-hide gelatin.It must be that Dou Haoxiao bought people from the pharmacy and deliberately framed him.
Shen Yucheng glared at the shopkeepers and shop assistants: "Who deliberately harmed me?"
The shopkeeper and the staff trembled under the pressure of the officials, and shook their heads: "Master, it's not us..."
In the blink of an eye, many people gathered around the door of the shop. They didn't know how to distinguish the authenticity of the medicinal materials, but they liked to coax the trend, and they all just watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal.
Gu Chongyang arrived afterward, only to see Shen Yucheng's face was terrifyingly pale, and he only stared at Dou Haoxiao with hatred: "You and I have broken the relationship between our two families, so why do you have to do it?"
Dou Haoxiao lowered his voice, gritted his teeth and said, "Shen Yucheng! You are the one who did everything! If it wasn't for you, how could Dalang die? Your Shen family killed my son, and I want your entire Shen family to be buried with you! Shen Hetang is just the beginning, I want you to watch with your own eyes that the shops of the Shen family are closed down one by one, and the members of the Shen family are beheaded one by one."
After finishing speaking, he pushed Shen Yucheng to the door and said to Gu Chongyang loudly: "Master Shen, Miss Biao, I know you will definitely not admit that Shen Hetang sells fake medicines. The government specially invited two masters of classic medicine from Nanjing Tai Hospital to distinguish the authenticity of the medicinal materials, so that Shen Hetang will not be wronged. At the same time, the government gave Shen Hetang a chance to defend himself like last time. Miss Biao, If you have any evidence, you can present it!"
From the moment he saw his uncle's face, Gu Chongyang knew that something was wrong. With the previous experience, Dou Haoxiao must have made sufficient preparations this time.Gu Chongyang ran into the shop, saw the donkey-hide gelatin on the table, his eyelids twitched.
Later, she opened several medicine cabinets and found fake tiger bones made from beef bones, Gastrodia elata made from radish and potato, Tianqi made from ginger, saffron made from dyed day lily...
The more she looked at her, the more frightened she became, and the more she looked at her, the more uncertain she became.
At the end of July, Nanjing was the hottest time of the year, but she felt as if she had fallen into an ice hole, her hands and feet were cold.
If only one medicine is fake, it can also be said that it was not paid attention when buying it, but there are so many fake medicines, even if you jump into the Yellow River, you can't clean them up.
Dou Haoxiao came prepared, and this time he will not let the Shen family go.In the previous life, my uncle died after King Rong successfully rebelled and was overthrown by Wang Jiulang. Could it be that he was going to be killed by Dou Haoxiao so early in this life?
If she couldn't protect her mother, couldn't she even protect her uncle?
She thought of the loving eyes of her uncle and aunt, the gentle cousin Su'e, the lively and outgoing cousin Suying, the two cousins, the cousin who just gave birth to a nephew, the lovely Zhaodi and Tiantian...all of this Do we all return to the dust and disappear like our mother?
No, no, no, absolutely not!She can die, she can die, but the Shen family must be preserved.
Gu Chongyang wiped the tears from his eyes and clenched his fists tightly. The medicines were fine in the morning, but after a short lunch break, the medicines were replaced. Who did it?As long as this person is found, the Shen family will be innocent.
But Dou Haoxiao didn't give her this chance. He walked in and looked at Gu Chongyang with a ferocious face: "Miss Biao, aren't you highly skilled in medicine and familiar with pharmacology? Aren't you eloquent and eloquent? This time , I see what else you have to say!"
She glared at Dou Haoxiao angrily, clenched her fists, and couldn't help shaking slightly, she had never been so helpless as now.
She is from Qingyanghou's mansion. Although her cousin Gu Weirui is Qingyanghou, but because of his frail health, he only holds a false position and has no real power. Even if she wants to ask the Gu family for help, she can't.
The only trump card in her hand right now is that she knows that Dou Haoxiao has taken refuge in King Rong, and she also knows that King Rong is secretly planning to rebel.She can use this to threaten Dou Haoxiao, but if she does so, she can only delay for a while, but it will bring more serious consequences.
"Winner and loser, I have nothing to say!" Gu Chongyang glanced at Dou Haoxiao, and said contemptuously: "Even if something happens to Shen Hetang, you just seal up the shop and arrest people. If you have the ability to arrest people, so can I." let you let him go."
Fortunately, he can only catch the uncle, and she can still find a way to rescue him.
"How dare you speak hard when you are about to die!" Dou Haoxiao looked at Gu Chongyang like a poisoned knife: "You only dare to show off your power like this because you are the lady of the Qingyang Houfu, but this is Nanjing. It's my Dou Haoxiao's site, I said you are the daughter of the Hou Fu, you are, I said you are an accomplice in selling fake medicines, who would dare to question it! You killed my son, I want your life!"
The last sentence, with gritted teeth and a fierce look in his eyes, was obviously not casually said.
"You are so courageous!" Gu Chongyang felt a chill in his heart, and his face showed a bit of anxiety.She also didn't expect Dou Haoxiao to be so rampant.
"How courageous I am, just give it a try."
Dou Haoxiao took a step forward, waved his hand and was about to have Gu Chongyang arrested, when he heard the voice of the Imperial Medicine from outside: "Oh, Ji Yufeng, why are you here?"
The Great Qi Dynasty established imperial hospitals in both the capital and Nanjing, and the Imperial Hospital in Nanjing was subordinate to the Imperial Hospital in Beijing.Ji Yufeng is the chief of the Royal Pharmacy Bureau of the Taiyuan Hospital. He is usually in the capital and rarely comes to Nanjing.Therefore, Canon Yao was a little surprised when he saw it, and hurriedly saluted.
Ji Yufeng said in a loud voice: "I was ordered by the envoy of the hospital to select medicine merchants with genuine medicinal materials and standardized processing as the royal merchants of the Taiyuan Hospital. Wang Jiulang of Duke Wen Guo specially recommended Shen Hetang to me. This is coming."
"By the way, this is Wang Jiulang." Ji Yufeng said with a smile: "Biao Miss Shen Hetang saved Mrs. Baozhen's life by chance, and used Shen Hetang's medicine to treat Mrs. Baozhen's illness. I also heard about Shen Hetang He is kind and generous, and the goods are genuine, and we have decided to use Shen Hetang's medicinal materials as imperial medicine."
Ji Yufeng frowned and said, "By the way, why didn't you work in the Imperial Hospital today? What's the matter here?"
It used to be fine, but it's fine now.
In the July weather, Dian Yao couldn't help but break out in cold sweat: "Xiaguan...Xiaguan came to Shen Hetang today because he heard that Shen Hetang is very good at processing medicinal materials, so he came here specially to ask Shen Hetang's processing master for processing techniques. .”
Ji Yufeng patted Dian Yao on the shoulder, and praised: "I often stay in the capital, and rarely come to Nanjing. I didn't expect you to be so open-minded and eager to learn. It's really good!"
The classic medicine was praised with elation: "This is the master's teaching, and the lower officials are just following the master's orders at all times, and study hard to learn the knowledge of medicinal materials so that they can serve the emperor."
Dou Haoxiao heard all this clearly, and he couldn't help being surprised.
Shen Hetang actually has something to do with Wang Jiulang?Didn't Wang Jiulang live in a simple place and avoid seeing guests?Is he here too?
Thinking this way in his heart, Dou Haoxiao hurried out, surrounded by many people outside, including neighbors watching the excitement, yamen servants, and people from the Shen family, but he still saw Wang Jiulang in white clothes and ordinary clothes at the first sight.
His appearance is so outstanding, like jade in the rubble, shining brightly, it's hard for people not to notice.
There was a glimmer of gloom in Dou Haoxiao's eyes, knowing that today might just end in haste.
He took a step forward, cupped his hands and said in a loud voice: "Nanjing prefect Dou Haoxiao, I met Jiulang. I was in a hurry that day, and I don't want to meet again today. How is Jiulang?"
Wang Jiulang was ordered by the emperor to go to Nanjing to build a public temple. On the first day he first arrived in Nanjing, officials of all sizes from the Nanjing government, dignitaries, gentry, and scholars came to the post station to greet him. The Duke's Mansion also did not participate in the reception banquet carefully prepared by Dou Haoxiao, but went directly to Jiming Temple.
Everyone in the world knows that Wang Jiulang is proud of his talent and unrestrained, so it's not surprising.
"It turned out to be the prefect of Dou." Wang Jiulang nodded, and instead of answering Dou Haoxiao's greeting, he asked calmly, "What is the prefect of Dou busy with?"
His tone was very normal, and when he was speaking, his eyes casually passed over Dou Haoxiao's face, Dou Haoxiao's heart skipped a beat, and he didn't dare to look at him, so he quickly lowered his head.
When he lowered his head, he felt a little annoyed that he, the dignified fourth-rank magistrate, actually bowed his head in front of a fifth-rank official of the Imperial Academy, and what was even more exasperating was that this person was not much older than his son.
But the annoyance was annoyance, and he didn't dare to show it at all on his face.He also knew that Wang Jiulang would never come to Shen Hetang to support the Shen family for no reason. As for the life-saving grace that Ji Yufeng said just now, it was even more nonsense.
Perhaps, things are not what I think, Wang Jiulang's coming to Shen Hetang is just a coincidence, after all, with the family status of Shen's family, it is really not worthy of Wang Jiulang's attention.
Dou Haoxiao secretly calmed himself down, and tentatively said: "I heard people report that Shen Hetang sold fake medicines and harmed the neighbors, so I came here to investigate."
In front of Wang Jiulang, he really didn't have the guts to call himself the mansion and official.
Whether he came to support Shen Yucheng or not depends on how Wang Jiulang responds next.
"Oh?" Wang Jiulang raised the corners of his mouth lightly, his voice remained the same as before, as if this was really such an insignificant matter: "Then what did you find out?"
Dou Haoxiao couldn't help but feel happy, it seems that Wang Jiulang really doesn't know the Shen family well, so he made the right bet.
He suddenly raised his head and looked at Wang Jiulang.
Wang Jiulang's face remained the same, still calm and breezy, but his eyes were colder than Dongyue and sharper than a knife's edge. Dou Haoxiao felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, and suddenly gave birth to the idea that if he said half a sentence wrong, he would be killed. The feeling of being executed late.
And Ji Yufeng of the Royal Pharmacy Bureau of the Imperial Hospital looked at Wang Jiulang obsequiously, not to mention the classic medicines, as if trembling for fear of making a wrong move.
Originally, he wanted to blurt out that Shen Hetang was selling fake medicines. The fake medicines were in the medicine cabinet of Shen's family.
Dou Haoxiao lowered his head again, feeling the sharp knife-like gaze stay on him all the time, and said with difficulty: "I found nothing, maybe the person who reported it was talking nonsense."
This is Ao Gongqing, Wang Jiulang who despises princes and princes. He doesn't need to say anything, just a look will make him crumble.Even in front of the emperor and his master, he had never been so nervous before.
Dou Haoxiao's back was tense, his mouth and tongue were dry, and his throat was tight.
"Hmm." Wang Jiulang's voice was still calm: "It's so good, I'm still worried that I recommended the wrong person to Ji Yufeng."
"Where, where!" Ji Yufeng smiled and took over the conversation: "Since it was recommended by you, how can there be any mistakes. You look at the plaque on it, it says authentic medicinal materials, herbs for the people, or specially made by the Nanjing government government , I think the prefect of Dou also recognizes Shen Hetang. The official is in a hurry to find a pharmacy, and you have solved my urgent need."
Wang Jiulang nodded: "Since that's the case, you can talk to Mr. Shen about the matter of the Imperial Medicine Royal Merchant."
"It's natural!" Ji Yufeng turned to Shen Yucheng and said, "When Mr. Shen is free, please discuss with me about offering imperial medicine."
Only then did Shen Yucheng react from the shock, and he was flattered and said to Ji Yufeng: "Caomin has time at any time, it's all up to adults to arrange."
Just now he almost became a prisoner of mermaid meat, and in a blink of an eye he will become an imperial medicine merchant after the crisis is resolved.
He looked at Wang Jiulang gratefully, and wanted to come forward to thank him, but Wang Jiulang stopped him with a look.
At this moment, a young Toshihiko suddenly ran out from the crowd, and he shouted excitedly: "Student Tang Yiqing, the head of the Nanjing County trial case last year, Jiumu Jiurou's daimyo, Chikuro is here, and I am here to pay a special visit."
While talking, he bent down like a spring onion and bowed down.Because he was too nervous, he almost fell when he bowed down and rushed to Wang Jiulang's side.
If Wang Jiulang hadn't reached out to help him, he would have almost bumped into Wang Jiulang.
Tang Yiqing's face turned pale all of a sudden, he took a step back in a hurry, and said in embarrassment: "The student is disrespectful, and I am ashamed to see Jiulang, so I will step back."
Mr. Yushu, Jiulang of the Wang family, Lang Yan is unique and unique in the world. Which scholar in the world does not know this sentence?In addition to his outstanding appearance and extraordinary talent, the world knows that Jiulang is arrogant and can't be wrong in front of him.
He actually made such a big mistake in front of Wang Jiulang, this incident is simply a great shame in his life.
Tang Yiqing felt that his life was full of gloom.
Unexpectedly, Wang Jiulang said gently: "People are not sages and sages are all faultless. You are too excited to meet each other suddenly, which proves that you have a pure heart. There are many people today, and it is not an ordinary place. You can go to the chicken in another day." Ming Temple for a while."
Tang Yiqing felt that he was alive again, that the blood in his whole body was gushing, his face was flushed, and his whole body was shaking with excitement.
He actually got an invitation from Wang Jiulang, son of Yushu. Wang Jiulang invited him to Jiming Temple for a talk. He was not dreaming!Tang Yiqing quickly pinched himself and felt a pain in his thigh, only then did he know that he was not dreaming.
When Wang Jiulang was talking to Tang Yiqing, Dou Haoxiao felt the threatening gaze leave him. He was drenched in sweat all over his body. Not only was he disheartened, but he was also secretly startled. Wang Jiulang would actually support Shen Yucheng. , why, why?
He gave Shen Yucheng a vicious look, and saw that he was standing next to Wang Jiulang, but suddenly greeted the crowd.Under his command, everyone pushed away one step to make way for Wang Jiulang.
Unexpectedly, Wang Jiulang was not in a hurry to leave, he just turned his head to the pharmacy and said, "What are you doing hiding in there, come out soon, come back to Jiming Temple with me!"
His voice was not loud, but Gu Chongyang could still hear it clearly, not only that, she could even feel a little impatience in his tone.But to Gu Chongyang's ears, this voice was undoubtedly like the sounds of nature.
There were many people in the pharmacy, but she knew that Wang Jiulang was speaking to her.A smile crept onto the corner of her mouth unconsciously, and she walked out of the pharmacy quickly with light steps.
"Jiulang!" She smiled, as beautiful as a flower, with a bright smile and white teeth, which made Wang Jiulang's eyes involuntarily dodge.
"Let's go!" His voice was indifferent as usual, he nodded to everyone and strode away.
Gu Chongyang followed with a smile, not paying attention to the surprised or envious eyes of the people around him.
Dou Haoxiao opened his mouth wide, and the moment he saw Gu Chongyang coming out of the pharmacy, he suddenly realized that this was the place Wang Jiulang valued most in the Shen family.
He gritted his teeth tightly, and gave Shen Yucheng a gloomy look. You are lucky to have such a beautiful niece.
Wang Jiulang strode forward, walking very fast, Gu Chongyang could only trot to keep up.
He was very tall, and when he walked, his clothes moved with the wind, floating like a dragon, she could only see his tall and wide back, and his thick hair like ink.
She ran out of breath, and he walked quickly into the thunderstorm, without any intention of stopping to wait for her, but Gu Chongyang was not angry at all, and just followed behind Wang Jiulang.He did her a great favor by resolving Shen Hetang's crisis. Gu Chongyang saw that there was nothing unpleasant about him, not to mention trotting behind him like this, or asking her to serve him tea and water, bowing to him, and she It's also very persuasive.
Wang Jiulang boarded the carriage, but Gu Chongyang was dumbfounded.
There is only one carriage. If she goes up, won't she be sitting with Wang Jiulang? Will he let him go up?But last time he was so angry and left with a flick of his sleeve, and later avoided seeing her again. Who knows if he is still angry with her?
Although he helped her today, she didn't think that Wang Jiulang had forgiven her for transgressing the rules.
If she didn't go up, she would have to follow the carriage from here to Jiming Temple on foot, not to mention that she had never walked such a long distance on foot, even if she could, she would not be able to keep up with the speed of the carriage.
Just when she was hesitating, the curtain of the carriage was suddenly lifted by a slender, white hand with sharp knuckles, and Wang Jiulang glanced at her impatiently.
Meaning why are you still not coming up?
Gu Chongyang glanced at Wang Jiulang, and felt intuitively that he meant to let her go up, but he was afraid that he would guess wrong, wouldn't it be embarrassing to get in the car rashly?
She looked at Wang Jiulang in embarrassment, hoping that he could say something.If he let her run with the carriage, for the sake of him descending from the sky to save her uncle today, she would break her leg and her shoes, no matter what.
Wang Jiulang couldn't help sighing when he saw that she was hesitant at first, then embarrassed, and then looked deathly at home.Isn't this little girl very courageous?Why is he timid now, he is eight years older than her, so he can be her elder, why not share a car together?
Is it so difficult for her to sit in the same car as me?
Seeing that it was getting late, Wang Jiulang shook his head helplessly and leaned out.
Gu Chongyang was still thinking about it, when he saw a slender hand stretched out in front of him. This is... to pull him into the car?
She glanced at Wang Jiulang, only to see that he frowned slightly, as if impatient, quickly put her hand in his, and he pulled him into the carriage.
The boy following the carriage, Ashe, rubbed his eyes, and asked with disbelief, "Uncle Ruifeng, was it just me who was dazzled just now? Master Jiu actually pulled Miss Gu into the carriage by himself?"
Ruifeng scolded in a low voice: "What does the Lord do, he naturally has his considerations, so why should he report to you?"
After being reprimanded, Asher lowered his head angrily and said, "I know I was wrong."
"It's good to know what's wrong." Ruifeng turned his head, his shrewd eyes filled with a faint smile.
