I can't afford to mess with the concubine doctor

Chapter 23
Qu Lingxu is certainly abominable, but if it wasn't for Xu, an idiot, who made such a mess, how could he be forced to such an extent by his daughter!
Thinking of this, Qu Liancheng looked at Xu Shi with a little more disgust, and ordered in a deep voice: "My aunt Xu framed Miss Di for an unreasonable crime. The crime is unforgivable. I think it's the first time I committed it. I dragged it out and beat the third time again." Ten boards, just to warn others!" After finishing speaking, he looked at Qu Lingxu lightly, "Xu'er, are you satisfied with this treatment?"

The Xu family has a deep foundation, and Qu Lingxu didn't expect to uproot it with this trivial matter, so he just bowed deeply, and said with tears in his eyes: "Thank you for your father's trouble, and my daughter is very grateful, it's just that my aunt is injured and needs to be taken care of." I am afraid that the things in the government are more than enough, but not enough."

"Qu Lingxu, don't go too far..." Seeing that Qu Lingxu was about to take away the power of his family, Xu could no longer bear the anger in his heart and shouted loudly.

Qu Liancheng frowned, and was about to discuss this matter later, when the eunuch Xuanzhi's indifferent voice came to his ears, "Yo, it turns out that the aunts in the general's mansion can call Miss Di by her name directly. It's an eye-opener." After that, he didn't care whether Qu Liancheng's face was ugly or not, and laughed twice.

"It's up to you!" Qu Liancheng could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, and walked away.

After him, Mrs. Xu was also taken away by two servants who were five big and three rough, and went to be executed.

"Mother Cui, go and take care of her. Those servants don't care about the seriousness, so don't hurt Auntie seriously." Qu Lingxu deliberately bit the word 'seriously injured'.

She must make Mrs. Xu firmly remember what it means to "self-inflicted evil, you can't live!" '

Nanny Cui immediately understood, nodded and left.

"Qu Lingxu, don't be hypocritical, if something happens to your mother, the imperial concubine will never let you go!" Qu Fengyan stared at Qu Lingxu angrily, wishing to tear the face in front of her.

"Sister, you'd better remember to be cautious in your words and deeds, otherwise don't blame me for not thinking about sisterhood and slapping your mouth with palace rules." Qu Lingxu smiled faintly, turned and walked towards the main room.

After a little freshening up, Mrs. Chen accompanied Qu Lingxu to listen to the letter in the main room. The inner eunuch handed the bright yellow imperial decree to Qu Lingxu, and said with a smile on his face: "My servant congratulates the princess."

Qu Lingxu understood the other party's pun, and raised her hand to pick out a pair of mutton fat jade pendants from all the rewards and handed them to the inner eunuch, and said gratefully: "Thanks to my father-in-law for his righteous words, this princess will definitely remember this kindness in my heart." .”

The inner eunuch did not refuse, took the jade pendant respectfully, and said with a smile: "You are too polite, the princess, the empress felt quite hit-to-heart when she saw the princess today, I hope the princess can go to Fengyi Palace more often when she is free. "

"The empress is the most beautiful woman in the world. It is a great fortune to go to Fengyi Palace to listen to the teachings of the empress. Please thank the empress for me, father-in-law."

Selfishly speaking, Qu Lingxu didn't want to have too much contact with this unpredictable empress, but if she hadn't been on the sidelines today, she wouldn't have won the position of princess so smoothly. Besides, After suffering such a big loss today, the Xu family will definitely not let it go. It is also a good choice to have someone join forces temporarily.

"The servant must convey it truthfully."

"Miss, what should Xiao Lian's family do?" After sending away the Xuanzhi eunuch, Cui Nanny respectfully asked Qu Lingxu for instructions.

Nanny Cui watched Qu Lingxu grow up, and always treated him like a child, but today's incident made her understand that this little master has undergone a radical change, even she, who has been immersed in the inner house for many years, can't bear it. Live in admiration.

Qu Lingxu waved her hand, motioning for Nanny Cui to bring her in.

"Miss...no...Princess, this servant didn't intend to frame you, I beg you to spare this servant!" Xiao Lian knocked her head on the hard floor tiles, bleeding profusely after a while , her parents also kept begging for mercy.

Qu Lingxu looked at the crying family of three expressionlessly, until their cries gradually faded, and then said lightly: "Man dies for money, and birds die for food. There is nothing incomprehensible, but helping the evildoers, If you want to kill me, I will never let it go, Xiao Lian, you can end it yourself!"

If Xu's trickery succeeds today, will Xiao Lian feel guilty because she killed an innocent person? The answer is undoubtedly no.

Repaying resentment with virtue, why repay virtue?

"Princess, please forgive me... Princess, please forgive me..."

Qu Lingxu ignored the cries that were fading away, only looked down at Xiaolian's parents, and continued: "Being able to make a choice in a short period of time is enough to prove your judgment, and the princess will fulfill her promise , to save the lives of the three of you, go back and pack up, and someone will arrange another place for you later."

Xiao Lian has a younger brother who is only five years old. Mother Cui used this as a breakthrough point to understand the pros and cons, so that they dare to stand up and correct Xu. In this patriarchal society, the life of a son is far more important than a daughter .

With Qu Lingxu's assurance, Xiaolian's parents were completely relieved, and gratefully followed Madam Cui down.

When the main hall was quiet again, Qu Lingxu summoned Ling Xiao Lingyun and asked them to find a chance to fetch the two medical books from Qu Fengyan. The famous Dr. Xu's name has been famous in the world for decades. Some essence, she wants to live in this era for a long time, over-reliance on the doctor system is not a long-term solution, always know yourself and the enemy.

The road to stealing a teacher is still long.

Ling Xiao Lingyun's execution is quite strong, the tea in Qu Lingxu's hand has not been finished, and the medical book has been delivered to her, but this is also suitable for Qu Fengyan who is busy taking care of Xu's "blossoming butt", and has no time for him. .

Qu Lingxu picked up a medical book and flipped through it. As she read it, she lamented that the miracle doctor Xu did indeed have some real skills, and her analysis of herbal medicine was very thorough. With the miraculous effect of ghost needle grass in curing the plague, there are many notes around the picture. Such an important herb, Dr. Xu should not forget it.

So... why did he choose the extremely poisonous red-leaf lion grass as medicine?

Qu Lingxu frowned and thought deeply. Suddenly, a bold idea flashed through his mind. Could it be...

With a chill down her spine, Qu Lingxu stood up abruptly, and said in a deep voice, "Ling Xiao, go and tell your master, I have something very important to see him."

Leng Yuanxun appeared in Qu Lingxu's room when he was holding the lamp. His qinggong was excellent. If he hadn't felt the flicker of the candle light, Qu Lingxu would not have known that there was another person in the room.

Looks like I'm going to have to install an alarm in the room in the future.

"Young Master Leng, please stay safe." Seeing that Leng Yuanxun remained silent, Qu Lingxu had no choice but to take the initiative to break the silence.

"Thanks to you, it's very good." Leng Yuanxun stepped forward, took a few sips of tea on the table, and then looked at Qu Lingxu with interest, "It seems that you are so eager to find me I've already thought about it."

Qu Lingxu understood what Leng Yuanxun meant, but she was not in the mood to fight against him now, so she just pushed the open medical book over straight to the point.

"Do you think this plague is not accidental?" Leng Yuanxun's eyes quickly turned cold when he saw the content on the page. He understood the cruelty of the power struggle better than Qu Lingxu.

"Unless Miracle Doctor Xu is so old that he loses his memory, there is no reason why he should risk his life." At first, she thought that Miracle Doctor Xu's inexperienced medical skills let her pick up the wrong thing, but now it seems that she has far underestimated him. strength, and... ambition.

"But among the important princes and nobles, except for me, no one else was found to be sick." Leng Yuanxun stared at Qu Lingxu, as if he wanted to ask her for something.

"The incubation period of the plague is as short as a few days, and as long as ten days. It doesn't mean it hasn't been there." Qu Lingxu took a sip of tea lightly. People will continue to be infected, and at this time, everyone knows that taking the detoxification medicine of Miracle Doctor Xu has certain risks, but in order to survive, they have to gamble on the [-]% hope that the medicine is what you are willing to take. It’s so good, you can’t blame others, can you?”

"So, as long as Master Xu adjusts the plague prescription, he can easily let those people die and which people live, and then affect the power of the government." Leng Yuanxun added calmly.

Doctors kill people invisible, this point is incomparable to any other industry.

"My son is wise." Qu Lingxu was not stingy with his praise.

Leng Yuanxun's logical thinking is more meticulous than hers. If he didn't know medical skills, he would never be ignorant of it.

"I should have thought of it earlier." Leng Yuanxun closed his hand tightly, and the teacup in his hand instantly turned into powder.

The battle for storage positions has always been accompanied by bloody storms, but they never expected that they would sacrifice so many innocent lives as the price.

"I also have to thank Mrs. Xu. If she hadn't tried so hard to frame me, I wouldn't have discovered this secret." Qu Lingxu raised his hand and closed the medical book, and said with a light smile, "As long as everything has been done, there must be traces to follow." , the son might as well look for evidence, and there will be an extra weight in the future."

"Tell me, what do you want?" Although Leng Yuanxun didn't know much about Qu Lingxu, he also knew that Qu Lingxu was definitely not that kind of selfless person.

"Two people with you." Now that he was seen through by the other party, Qu Lingxu stopped playing around and put forward his request straight to the point.

"My son has trained them for so many years, and you want to take them away without any effort?" Leng Yuanxun looked at Qu Lingxu with interest.

This woman really doesn't know how to write the word 'polite'.

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to, the empress must also be interested in this news." Qu Lingxu said calmly while drinking tea.

Don't think that you can threaten her everywhere with her status and strength, she, Qu Lingxu, will not accept such a thing.
