Medicine in Song Dynasty

Chapter 150
On a snowy day and a good New Year's Eve, Su Wencheng couldn't stay at home and read his rare ancient books, nor could he write Spring Festival couplets, make peach charms, and show off his good handwriting, so he went to work in the yamen pitifully.

There is no way, Yu Zhizhou is a smart person, since the murder case in Qingzhou came to an impasse, he has been sick, not just pretending to be sick, but a real illness, if you don’t believe it, there is the well-known doctor Hao Hao in Qingzhou to prove it.

As the most powerful second-in-command on the ground in Qingzhou, Su Tongjuan naturally had to take on the heavy responsibility when Zhizhou fell. Cases like this were indeed within his purview, and it was impossible for him to pick him up.

Su Tong felt sorry for his father, and remembered that Su Wencheng sighed a few days ago, saying that he especially wanted to eat the noodles cooked for him when Mrs. Chen was still there.

Of course, it's hard to say these things to Li Xiuniang, otherwise, even if she doesn't say it on the face, she will feel uncomfortable in her heart. What woman would like to let her man compare herself with other women?
Su Tong remembered it.

It happened that a large pot of bone soup was stewed in the kitchen, and it was ready to be sent out to work outside, and the servants who consumed a lot of energy would drink it.

It has been snowing heavily recently, and the streets are full of snow. Every household, everyone who has time to spare is working hard. It has been a few days of hard work. The women in the family are naturally in charge of logistics. Some of the food is delicious. What they drink is the first thing that matters to them. The Su family lives in affluent life now, and they are not stingy when it comes to eating and drinking.

Even if it’s not a fine meal, big bone soup, served with flatbread roll meat, can fill the stomach and keep warm, it couldn’t be better.

A large pot of thin noodles was boiled in the snow-white soup, and only a little soup was put in. Su Tong rolled the fresh vegetables at home, chopped half a catty of lean mutton, and cut them into thin slices. , then mixed with the sauce and poured on the noodles, the aroma was so tangy that even Su Tong himself salivated.

Ask Aunt Ma and the others to help carry the big food box to the yamen, because the food box is very close, the food box is specially made, the heat preservation effect is good, and the noodles are still hot. Su Wencheng was overjoyed and told his group of people to put down the work at hand Son, snoring and snoring together, swallowed two big bowls of noodles, which add up to about a catty and a half, and drank two bowls of bone soup.

After eating and drinking enough, Su Wencheng leaned on the recliner and worried.

The reclining chair he is using now is still brought from home. It is designed by Ms. Su and conforms to human mechanics. It is very comfortable to lie on. The only drawback is that it is too comfortable and it is easy to make people drowsy.

Su Tong leaned over, sat beside his father, beat his legs, took out plaster from the medicine box, and stuck it on the joints of his fingers for him.

Su Wencheng didn't pay attention when he was young, and his hands and feet joints were always swollen and painful. Su Tong knew that this was a symptom of rheumatism. Fortunately, he is still young and the condition is not serious. With symptomatic drug treatment, there is still hope for a cure. Yes, if it really develops into rheumatism, it's okay now, but when I get old, I'm afraid it will really kill people.

After applying the medicine, because it was getting dark, Su Wencheng thought about going home together tonight, so he let Su Tong sit behind the screen to rest, and he talked lazily to the group of people under his hands.

"... When Eunuch Sun died, his whole body was tied up, his heart was pierced by a dagger, and the gate was closed tightly. The servants who were patrolling outside were not disturbed. It must be caused by internal thieves, at least there are internal traitors..."

Su Wencheng muttered in a low voice, and the surrounding masters who were also eating and drinking with their superiors, as well as the police officers, all had bitter faces when they heard this, and even had to eat a few bowls of delicious noodles.

Several people thought about it, but Third Sister You and Cheng Chun were the most suspicious.

Think about that Eunuch Sun who has lived in the palace for decades and has never been out of the palace. Although his hometown is Qingzhou, he was only a teenager when he entered the palace. Who would have a deep hatred with a teenage child? Revenge after ten years?
Third Sister You is the only one who can have a relationship with him and possibly hate him. Thinking that Third Sister You could have married the man she loves and lived happily ever after, but she somehow became the woman of an old eunuch like him. How can she be without hatred in her heart? ?

"Otherwise, let's arrest Third Sister You and Cheng Chun for a trial. Under the three trees, what can we ask for? When the time comes, I will show you my skills. I guarantee that it won't take one night. They will recruit everything. Let me tell you." , this matter has nothing to do with them."

Several of his subordinates had a terrible headache, and they couldn't choose what to say, but Su Wencheng could only smile wryly. Although the officials handle the case now, they don't shy away from using torture, but he doesn't like it, and he doesn't want to leave the impression of a cruel official in the eyes of the officials. .

Su Tong also disagreed. Although she didn't dare to say that she knew Zhao Zhen, Zhao Zhen was the Emperor Ren. It was absolutely unmistakable. He was the only emperor in history that even foreign rulers cried bitterly after his death. Well, if his father left a cruel impression in his mind, no matter how capable he was, it would be difficult for him to be reused.

In fact, the most important thing about being an official is to get the favor of your immediate boss. If your boss thinks you are good, even if you did something wrong, he will find a reason to forgive you. He thinks it is not your fault, but if your boss hates you, Then don't worry about what you do, it's all wrong.

Instinctively acting according to one's preferences is a human nature, which cannot be completely corrected no matter how hard one tries, even Emperor Renzong Zhao Zhen must not be exempt from it.

Su Wencheng was worried there, but Su Tong was bored and wanted to go out for a walk.

Of course, Su Tongpan would not refuse such a reasonable request from his daughter, so he simply called two yamen servants and took Su Tong and the others around the yamen.

"Just buy whatever you want to buy. It's Chinese New Year. Ah Tong should also add some new clothes. I remember that Mingyuefang has a few new clothes. The styles are very exquisite. Shopkeeper Ming said to keep it for you. Why don't you go and have a look?"

Su Wencheng's eyes were a little bit apologetic, and he called two yamen servants, asked them to pay fifty guan coins, and coaxed his daughter to go out to play.

Although Su Tong is the richest man now, and Su Wencheng's salary is not even a fraction of the money Miss Su earned, but as a father, he is unwilling to be deprived of the right to even give his daughter pocket money.

Su Tong responded with a smile, and went out. She didn't go shopping, but went straight to Sun's house.

Once Eunuch Sun died, Third Sister You didn't dare to stay there, so she went back home. The entire Sun residence was guarded by people from the yamen, and outsiders were not allowed to approach.

Su Tong asked someone to drive there, and when she reached the gate of Sun's house, she insisted on going in to take a look, but the two yamen servants who followed her were frightened.

The two of them looked at each other, with bitter faces, they didn't dare to stop them. They were very aware of Su Tongpan's love for his daughter, so they could only coax him: "Little lady, this house is nothing to see, and it's so gloomy and unlucky that someone died. It's just the Chinese New Year, why bother with that bad luck."
