Chapter 727 Concealment, something is wrong between the old man and Jiang Chi
Yun Mujiu lowered his eyebrows slightly, looked around quickly, and in an instant locked onto several figures in the crowd.
Among the crowd outside the house, some heard that the doctor at the Herbal Hall had saved a patient who seemed to be dying, and they all looked inside the hall curiously.
When the people saw Yun Mujiu appear in front of the medicine cabinet to get medicine, they suddenly realized that it was Princess Ye who was kind enough to help the poor father and son!
Seeing Princess Ye's gaze fall on them, he quickly nodded, not daring to look directly at her.
Yun Mujiu looked calm and retracted his gaze. He turned around and handed the packed pills to Doctor Fu, and at the same time informed Doctor Fu and the old man of the precautions for Jiang Chi's medication.
The old man asked Yun Mujiu that if the kind-hearted people just now asked him about the child's condition, could he tell them that it was Princess Ye who treated him?
Yun Mujiu thought about it for a moment and agreed generously. It was just a small matter of treating a patient, so it didn't matter if people knew about it. It would also help to increase her medical reputation.
Thinking back to what Doctor Fu said about the man in black robe, I felt inexplicably heavy in my heart.
If more and more people in the world knew of her existence, if she cured illnesses and saved lives and opened more shops so that more people could recognize her, then would the man in black robe and her biological father's relatives be able to discover that she was alive?
Can the mystery of her life be solved?
"Princess Ye, I am truly grateful to you. I have no way of repaying your kindness!"
The old man's generous words brought Yun Mujiu back to his senses, and Yun Mujiu smiled indifferently.
She comforted him, "Old man, you don't have to be polite. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Moreover, as doctors, how can we bear to see a life disappear before our eyes?"
Yun Mujiu's words touched everyone's heart, and they looked at Yun Mujiu with respect and earnestness. Princess Ye is beautiful and kind!
Yun Mujiu and the old man returned to the inner hall and briefly explained Jiang Chi's current situation.
Jiang Chi's operation was successful and he will wake up after the anesthesia wears off.
But Jiang Chi had just undergone surgery and couldn't travel too much. The old man's home was in the suburbs of Beijing, a long way from the Herb Hall in the city center.
Tonight is a critical period for Jiang Chi to recover from the operation. He needs a doctor to look after him from time to time to prevent any sudden physical problems. Fu Qian and Doctor Fu sometimes work at the Herb Hall, so Yun Mujiu let Jiang Chi live in a clean room on the third floor of the Herb Hall, and assigned an empty room to Doctor Fu, Fu Qian and the old man. Doctor Fu and his grandson will stay at the Herb Hall tonight.
Even if the Herb Hall is closed every night, there will still be a waiter on night watch and a doctor on duty, as well as several warriors guarding the Herb Hall.
Firstly, it is convenient for some patients to have night illnesses, so the doctors who stay in the hall can see them. Secondly, there are people guarding the house, which can also prevent thieves from invading the herbal hall and damaging the internal structure of the herbal hall, especially to prevent bad guys from stealing and poisoning the medicine.
Yun Mujiu has put in a lot of effort for the safety of Herb Hall and the people.
Before it was completely dark, Yun Mujiu returned to Prince Ye's Mansion.
Ye Xiaohan had already asked someone to prepare dinner and was waiting for Yun Mujiu to come back for dinner.
Ye Xiaohan used to eat alone, but now with Yun Mujiu, the table became more lively and cozy. The two of them did not follow the rule of "no talking while eating or sleeping", but ate freely. There was no need to follow so many rules between the two of them.
In order to take care of Yun Mujiu's dining habits, Ye Xiaohan even asked the servants who were serving the dishes to step back so that Yun Mujiu could eat more comfortably.
While eating, Yun Mujiu told Ye Xiaohan about his experience out of the house this afternoon.
She first went shopping with Suixi Fusang and heard a lot of people talking about things, some of which were about her and some about the emperor.
The people in the capital gradually learned that the emperor suddenly summoned Princess Ye to the palace that day, presumably to hold her accountable. However, Princess Ye managed to escape and returned home, bringing back a bunch of rewards from the palace. This move not only demonstrated Princess Ye's intelligence and maintained the dignity of the Ye Palace, but also secretly pointed out the emperor's fault for wanting to punish the innocent Princess Ye for the sake of Yun Xiang who had made a mistake.
In addition, people also heard that Princess Ye was upright and refused to succumb to the imperial power because of Yun Xiang's fault. For this reason, Princess Ye seemed to be punished in the Qianqing Palace. When Princess Ye went out, her face was pale and her legs were limping. However, Princess Ye was strong enough to go to see the Queen Mother for a follow-up visit.
Yun Mujiu started laughing as she spoke. The emperor secretly suffered a loss from her, which was really interesting! Humph! Who made the emperor always want to make trouble for her and Ye Xiaohan!
"Mumu, you are really smart." Ye Xiaohan's lips curved. The emperor is the emperor, he has some means and tactics. But sometimes the emperor's temperament is too stubborn, too strong, and too despicable, and he can be easily confused by others.
The emperor can make some achievements in state affairs, but facing a smart woman like Mu Mu, it is normal for him to do something stupid.
"No, no, I'm just being clever." Yun Mujiu replied humbly, his tone was modest but his chin was slightly raised.
Ye Xiaohan curved his eyes but did not expose Yun Mujiu's arrogance.
Yun Mujiu drank a mouthful of soup and continued to share with Ye Xiaohan what happened today. She would hold a meeting at the Herb Hall and tell him about the process of saving Jiang Chi.
"Your Highness, that old man is in his sixties or seventies, but his child Jiang Chi is only in his twenties."
"Mu Mu thinks there might be something wrong with them?"
"I don't think the age difference between them is that of father and son. It would be more normal if they were grandfather and grandson."
Yun Mujiu drank the soup in the bowl in one gulp and continued, "The old man looks like an ordinary citizen who has suffered for many years, but Jiang Chi's temperament seems to be different from that of an ordinary person. Not only does he look nothing like the old man, but his figure and temperament also seem to be from a wealthy family."
"Yeah." Ye Xiaohan showed appreciation, "Mu Mu's reasoning is very careful. Not bad."
"Your Highness, do you also think there is something wrong with them?" Yun Mujiu asked.
"Yes. I sent someone to check and found out that the old man's registered residence is not in the capital, but outside the capital."
"So, the father and son don't live in the capital anymore?" Yun Mujiu raised her eyebrows. At that time, the old man told her that he lived far away and it was inconvenient for him to rush back in time for the sake of his son's health. When she asked where he lived, the old man hesitated and said that he lived in the outskirts of the capital.
"Yes, they have always lived outside the city." Ye Xiaohan picked up a piece of eight-treasure cake for Yun Mujiu, and then continued: "But it is true that they sought medical treatment. Jiang Chi did come to the capital to seek medical treatment because he was seriously ill."
Ye Xiaohan glanced at Yun Mujiu and said, "The old man is a lonely old man with no family."
Since the old man has no family, how could he have the excuse of having a son?
Hearing this, Yun Mujiu smiled awkwardly.
