The study room quieted down instantly; Xia Hourui narrowed his eyes, with a little bit of frustration shown on his face.
“I heard that Su Lun’s daughter saved Xi’er on the barge?”
The fire on the barge and the assassination of noble ladies and masters were widely implicated. So Xia Hourui must have been informed in detail.
“I’ve heard that.”
“After a few days’ stay in Shunyang prefecture, have you got some clues?” Xia Hourui’s question seemed normal but they actually implied his doubt about Su Muge’s medical skills.
Xia Houmo slightly turned his black eyes, knowing that no matter what he answered, he would put Su Muge into a certain situation.
“She’s smart.”
Hearing this answer, Xia Hourui smiled and stopped asking.
“I’m tired, you may retreat.”
“Excuse me.”
After Xia Houmo left, Eunuch Yi came in with tea.
Xia Hourui took a sip of
“Madam ...” The Mama waiting beside called in a low voice. Mrs. Lin waved at her with a cold smile, meaning that she didn’t have to worry. “He didn’t care his own reputation. Why should I care?” And then she turned to Su Muge. “Miss Su, in fact, I asked you to come here not to treat me, but the General.” Su Muge stayed calm without showing even a hint of surprise, which made Mrs. Lin think more highly of her. “What’s the matter with General?” “A shameful disease.” The old Mama stepped forward and helped Mrs. Lin stand up. “Miss Su, please come with me.” Su Muge asked no more, carried her medical kit and followed Mrs. Lin out of the yard. General Valgime Mansion was very large, but the internal building structure was very simple. As a result, the mansion appeared to be a little empty. After a quarter’s walk, they stopped in front of a remote courtyard. “Madam,
The carriage passed through a lively district and stopped at Luoyin Temple on Tongluo Street, northwest of the capital. “Miss, here we are.” Su Muge quickly got off the carriage and walked into the temple. The Luoyin Temple on the outskirts of the city was not large, but was frequently visited. Every first and fifteenth day in a lunar month, many people would come to offer incense. As soon as Su Muge walked in, she was overwhelmed with a heavy smell of burning incense. It was the fifteenth day today, so there were many pilgrims in the temple. Su Muge went into the temple hall and looked around, but she could not find a single trace of Zhao inside. Seeing a six or seven-year-old monk cleaning the temple hall, Su Muge stepped forward. “Excuse me, master, I wonder if the madam of Su Mansion is here.” She asked. Visitors to the temple were all registered. “Amitab
Suddenly, Xingyu’s painful or joyful moan came from the room, followed by a frightened scream. After a while, the disheveled guard and Xingyu were escorted and taken out by Li Mama. Xingyu’s face was still flushed with affection, but her body was trembling severely as she looked at An. “Ma’am, Madam, please let me, explain ...” An squinted gloomily at her. “You are the eldest Madam’s maid, so it’s her instead of me to decide how to dispose of you. Since your parents are both long-term servants in our mansion, you’d better tell the truth.” Li Mama held Xingyu, and gave her a secret pinch, making Xingyu almost burst into tears. Xingyu was clear about An’s implication; she was threatening her with her parents! “Madam, please forgive me! I have no idea how it happened. After the eldest Madam offered incense to Buddha, she came to the guest room for a rest and asked me to bring her a cup of
“What do you want to do!?” Hardly had Su Lun returned to Su Mansion at dusk when he heard the incident in Luoyin Temple. Then he immediately went to An’s courtyard with a sullen face. No sooner had An put on a smile than she was frightened by Su Lun’s scold. Seeing this, Li Mama hurriedly led the maids out of the room, closed the door and guarded outside. Looking at Su Lun’s widened angry eyes, An was also vexed. “What do you mean, My Lord? I have no idea what I have done that would make you so angry.” Su Lun snorted coldly. “You don’t know what you have done? I am absolutely clear about Zhao’s personality after so many years. She couldn’t do that kind of things even if she was ten thousand times bolder than she is!” Hearing this, An realized that Su Lun had known about the incident in Luoyin Temple. With no evidence left behind, she couldn’t be accused of any crime. Howev
Jinghong stepped forward with the flagon and filled the cup for Su Muge, but she didn’t sit down. “My Lord, would you like to hear me sing or watch me dance?” Su Muge reached out and grabbed her wrist, forcing her to sit down beside her. “Ah!” “My Lord, what are you doing!?” Jinghong was stronger than Su Muge had expected, but she didn’t get rid of Su Muge’s hand after all. “My Lord, I’m just an entertainer!” Letting out a chuckle, Su Muge held Jinghong’s waist from behind, buried her face in Jinghong’s neck and took a deep sniff. Su Muge felt Jinghong’s body stiffened. Before Jinghong could break away, Su Muge let go of her. Jinghong glared at Su Muge with fiery red eyes and turned around to open the door, intending to leave. Su Muge made no moves. She poured herself a glass of wine and took a sip. The wine wasn’t strong but tasted a little swe
In the Blossoms Tower, Xia Houkun looked at Jinghong with a smile and drank up the wine in the glass. Jinghong watched Xia Houkun with her mind perturbed, wondering why she could consecutively encounter two of the most distinguished guests tonight. “What funny things did the King of Jin tell you just now?” “How could His Royal Highness tell me anything funny? He just made me sing songs.” Xia Houkun was not upset; instead, he enjoyed the dishes with chopsticks. “The man with the King of Jin in the room was quite unfamiliar.” “Yes, I’ve also met him for the first time.” Xia Houkun asked some more obscure questions but could get no useful information from Jinghong, so he let her retreat. “What the hell was he doing here?” Xia Houmo had always been a man of abstinence and would never appear in such a place before. After a while, the guard Yubei went into the room.
“The child’s father is General Lin.” After Su Muge left the house and returned to Su Mansion, she took out the blood sample of General Lin and mixed it with the blood of the fetus as well as some medicine. The medical reaction proved that the child’s father in Mi’er’s belly was General Lin. While examining Mi’er’s body, she found not only her soles but also her toenails black. This was not the symptoms of the sexual disease but a toxication. After cutting open the blood vessel on Mi’er’s feet, she found no blood in it. It must be a toxin which could cause blood clotting. Su Muge frowned and found an old medical book from the box. The book was sent to her by Xia Houxi to express her gratitude. It recorded all kinds of rare herbs that could be used as medicine. She remembered that the consumption of the petals from a kind of flower could lead to the symptom of blood clotting. “I found it!
After returning to Su Mansion, Su Muge went straight to Peachblossom Courtyard. On entering the yard, she heard gentle chuckles from Zhao. Slightly frowned, Su Muge looked at Yueru and stepped into the room. When they arrived at the door, they ran into Meihua coming out with cold tea, who was taken aback at the sight of Su Muge and Yueru. “Eldest Miss, I’m sorry! You must be frightened by me.” Meihua instantly apologized. Su Muge found her quite normal, without even the slightest trace of anxiety. “You told Yueru that my mother felt uncomfortable. What’s the matter?” Hearing that, Meihua felt a little ashamed. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have sent the message before figuring out the actual situation. Please forgive me, eldest Miss.” Thinking of Meihua’s expression at the time, Yueru knew that she had been serious with the message, so she asked, “What’s going on?”
The abbot just came back to his senses and stepped forward with a frown. Before Jiang Yingxue came in, he checked the princess's pulse. At that time, the princess's pulse had been blocked and the situation was very dangerous. At this time, he had to quickly use a needle to clear the princess's heart pulse. , but even in this case, the princess's situation will be very dangerous.But now that Jiang Yingxue has applied pressure on the princess, the blocked heart veins have been slightly unblocked. If nothing else, at least as Jiang Yingxue said, the princess is no longer in danger of her life.Jiang Yingxue stood aside and quickly glanced at King Jinling. He was wearing a very simple dark-colored robe, with a mutton-fat jade belt tied around his waist, which made him taller and taller.He had a pair of majestic sword-shaped eyebrows. Originally, there should be a pair of deep and sharp eyes under such eyebrows, but the look he cast on the princess was particularly ge
Jiang Yingxue almost lost her voice and asked, "Didn't you install a pinhole camera on me?""Your Majesty is really clever."Su Yuchen held the reins and slowed down the horse."My lord, why did you break off the engagement in the first place?""What did you say?" Jiang Yingxue's words were not loud, but Su Yuchen heard them, but he still asked.Jiang Yingxue shook her head suddenly. She was really crazy. She asked what she was doing for no reason!"Nothing, I, I want to find Mr. Han. I have something to ask him.""You have a lot to ask him."Jiang Yingxue had something on her mind and didn't notice anything wrong with the tone of his words.Su Yuchen took Jiang Yingxue to the door of the palace."Your Majesty.""This king has something else to do, you can go find it yourself.""Thank you, Your Majesty."When Jiang Yingxue walked into Mr. Han's yard, she always felt that something was wrong, as if there we
When Jiang Yingxue woke up early the next morning, her heart sank when she looked at the red line that had extended to the base of her palm.This grows too fast! With the speed at which the red thread was growing, she was afraid that if she didn't get the artifact, she would go see King Yama first!I wonder if Mr. Han has any way to slow down the growth of red lines.With something on her mind, Jiang Yingxue couldn't sit still. After breakfast, she was ready to go to Prince Zhan's Mansion to find Mr. Han.Because she was in a hurry, Jiang Yingxue asked Chu Yi to drive the car faster. When she reached a street and was about to turn, someone suddenly rushed out on horseback.Chu Yi was shocked and quickly tightened the reins in her hands, but the opponent's speed was too fast. Even though she pulled the reins immediately, the opponent's horse still hit her."ah!"Jiang Yingxue only felt a violent tremor outside the car, and she was almost knoc
"Your Majesty, those are not sesame seeds, they are the particles that originally grow on the red fruit. They are edible."Bai Linghan felt that his face had been lost due to this red fruit!"Get out!"Jiang Yingxue rolled her eyes inwardly, she was such a bad tempered person."Yes, slave, please leave."After Jiang Yingxue left the house, she went directly to the small kitchen behind the palace. Just kidding, how could she leave without getting the Phoenix Pendants!The people from Nayu Kingdom have just arrived, so no one will use the small kitchen."The emperor has gone to bed. You all go outside and keep watch. The emperor likes peace and quiet, especially at night. There shouldn't be any noise.""yes."Jiang Yingxue lay beside the door, listening to the noise outside, and climbed out of the window.She climbed to the eaves neatly, and carefully came to the roof where Bai Linghan was. She removed the tiles on the roof,
In the imperial palace, in the royal study."Your Majesty, the Great Xia Great War will be held in less than half a month. Now the honor guards from various countries have entered the borders of Daxia and will reach Bianjing City in less than ten days."Emperor Shang Zong pondered the lock on his hand and raised his head after hearing this."Just follow the management arrangements from previous years."Wen Dahai glanced at Emperor Shang Zong who was looking at him intently and felt helpless. "Your Majesty, the honor guards from various countries have arrived. Who does Your Majesty think would be more appropriate to receive them?"Emperor Shang Zong put down the lock in his hand and walked around the study twice with his hands behind his back."What do you think, boss?""The eldest prince is prudent in his work, so he can naturally take on big responsibilities." Wen Dahai said hurriedly."It's stable, but it's too boring. Why don't we l
Jiang Yingxue hid in the firewood shed in the backyard of Huawang Mansion, looking at the blood gradually drying on her palms, her heart was filled with despair!True dragon blood, not the emperor, nor the prince who might become the emperor in Bianjing! Who else could it be? Could it be that they are those young princes who are not taken seriously by the emperor at all, who have no support from their mother's family, who have absolutely no sparkle in them?or it could be...King of Jinling?When warriors from all over the world went to Daxia to hold a battle, King Jinling would also come back. It happened that she also wanted to confirm whether Su Muge was with King Jinling.Jiang Yingxue walked out of the woodshed, opened the door to the backyard of the palace smoothly and walked out.It was true that Baili Xun had people blockade the palace, but the speed of those people could not compare with Jiang Yingxue. By the time the guards came, Jiang Y
Are you afraid of him?Facing such a powerful man with great kung fu, she was afraid of confronting him. However, no matter what Su Yuchen's mentality was after getting along with him during this period of time, Jiang Yingxue felt that he would not kill her. life, so she couldn't say she was afraid of him."Your Majesty, do you want me to be afraid of you?"Su Yuchen looked at her and didn't answer.Jiang Yingxue smiled. "Thank you, Your Majesty, for saving me today." As she said that, she felt blessed and followed Wen Dahai.It wasn't until Jiang Yingxue's back disappeared from sight that Su Yuchen turned around and left the palace.It was already the second watch. After surviving the sleepiest time, Jiang Yingxue was no longer so sleepy.She lay on the bed and looked at the green tent in confusion. After today's banquet, the emperor should grant marriages to his sons soon. Judging from the emperor's attitude today, he also planned to settl
Jiang Yingxue looked around, but there was no one there."Strange, where have people gone?""Little eunuch? Little eunuch?" She stood outside the rockery and waited for a while, then frowned after making sure there was no one inside.It was unlikely that the little eunuch got lost in the rockery, and it was also unlikely that he would just leave without confirming whether she had followed him out. Where did that person go?While Jiang Yingxue was confused, there was a sound of footsteps behind her. Jiang Yingxue turned around and looked at the visitor alertly. It was a palace maid wearing a peach-colored palace dress.Jiang Yingxue looked at her and felt that this person looked familiar."Greetings to Miss Jiang, this slave is Wanlian who is serving Concubine Hao. Just now, Xiao Dunzi suddenly felt sick in his stomach and ran to the latrine. When he saw the slave, he asked the slave to come and send Miss Jiang to the guest hall."It turned o
Everyone focused their attention on the lock in the hand of Jiang Yingxue."This lock is made with great care by me. You can't possibly..."There was a "click", and the emperor's unfinished words were stuck in his throat.The lock is open!The emperor's eyes were so wide that they almost popped out of their sockets!Everyone held their breath and their hearts were raised. Jiang Yingxue opened the lock made by the emperor. Isn't this a slap in the emperor's face! ?Everyone was waiting to see how angry the emperor would be and how he would punish Jiang Yingxue. But who knew that after the initial shock, the emperor ran to Jiang Yingxue with an earnest look on his face."You little girl, I thought you were interesting before. Tell me, how did you open this lock?""The emperor's locks are very exquisite, and I just tried my luck to open them." Just kidding, Jiang Yingxue has been a professional locksmith for more than ten years, and even
