Chapter 130 Jiang Yanping: Watch how I act like a scoundrel!

Cui Hu's condition was somewhat special. Cui Youwang even invited the Imperial Physician to examine him, but the answer he received was that he needed to rest well and relax so that he could recover quickly.

Even if the recovery is quick, it will take at least three months before the person can walk around like a normal person.

Choi Yoo-wang was naturally dissatisfied with this result.

But even the Imperial Physician could only come to this conclusion; other folk healers were even more helpless.

Unexpectedly, at this time, people from the Marquis of Anxin's residence actually came to the door.

Cui Youwang rushed back to the mansion and saw the steward of the Marquis of Anxin's mansion and an old man sitting in the front hall drinking tea. As soon as he entered, the two of them bowed to him.

"No need for formalities. May I ask who this gentleman is?"

The steward, Xu Zhong, introduced first: "This humble servant, Xu Zhong, greets Lord Cui. This is the renowned physician, Elder Sun, whom my young lady specially invited. He is also the senior uncle of the current Imperial Physician."

Upon hearing this, Cui Youwang's eyes lit up.

We've found someone even more capable than the Imperial Physician!

"Please come in, Mr. Sun."

"Lead the way."

Along the way, Cui Youwang briefly explained Cui Hu's situation. Old Man Sun nodded from time to time, occasionally asked a question, and then remained silent.

Madam Cui asked anxiously, "My lord, what do you think?"

"Let's hear what this old doctor Sun has to say later. He is, after all, the senior uncle of the Imperial Physician, so his medical skills must be excellent."

"My poor son, I don't know who he offended, that he has suffered such a calamity!"

Cui Youwang remained silent; it was clear that Jiang Wenhe had acted carelessly.

Even if he didn't administer the drug, he's still implicated in this matter!

The fact that the young master of the prestigious Sun family would allow his servants to buy and use wine from strangers, and even counterfeit wine at that, was something Cui Youwang was actually only half convinced of.

Even if the servant was telling the truth, he didn't believe Jiang Wenhe, who hadn't even verified it, and directly brought the wine to Cui Hu.

Ultimately, it's because Cui Youwang doesn't trust the Jiang family.

Madam Cui looked at the old doctor sitting on the embroidered stool in front of the bed, taking her son's pulse. She felt that although the man was dressed casually, his posture was upright and he did not look old.

"Master Cui."

Cui Youwang was brought back to his senses by the voice and quickly came over, cupping his hands and saying, "Please enlighten me, venerable immortal, how is my son's condition?"

“Lord Cui, to be frank, your son is not ill, but rather poisoned. Although the dosage is small, the frequency of his consumption has caused these symptoms.”

Cui Youwang's expression immediately turned serious. Sure enough, it was related to the drug in the wine!

However, he had consulted several doctors beforehand, and only one or two suspected that it was caused by drugs, but they were not sure. Otherwise, he would not have agreed to discuss it privately with Jiang Yanping in court today.

Now it seems that they were indeed ambushed.

"Please, old sage, save my son! I will be eternally grateful!"

This senior doctor was the Imperial Physician's uncle, and in his presence, Cui Youwang dared not presume to be his own official.

"It's not difficult to save your son. I have a prescription here. Just have your son take it twice a day for three days, and his symptoms will be greatly relieved. He will be fully recovered in seven days."

Cui Youwang was overjoyed: "Is what the old immortal said true? Thank you so much, old immortal!"

"No need for that, just call me Old Man Sun. I only came to see you because I owed that girl from the Xu family a favor. If you want to thank someone, thank that girl."

Madam Cui stepped forward tentatively: "The Xu family's daughter that the old immortal spoke of, is it the second daughter, Xu Zhaozhao?"

"Who else could it be but her? Just because I stole a few jars of her wine, she detained me and made me get some scar removal cream and treat her illness. I haven't worked in years!"

"Yes, yes, thank you very much, old immortal. We will definitely prepare a generous gift for the Marquis of Anxin's residence to properly thank Miss Xu."

"Alright, here is the prescription. Have someone go and get the medicine and prepare it. I need to give your son acupuncture first, otherwise, even if he is detoxified, he may suffer from memory loss when he wakes up."

Madam Cui's expression changed slightly. She quickly ordered someone to prepare the medicine and instructed others to prepare fine tea and food to entertain this miraculous doctor.

As soon as Old Man Sun stopped acupuncture, Cui Hu showed signs of waking up.

"Where's the hot ginger tea I asked you to prepare?"

"it's here."

Old Sun casually pointed to a little girl: "Go and feed him, otherwise he'll be restless when he wakes up."

"Yes."

After taking the medicine, Cui Hu soon felt his stomach churning again. After vomiting, his stomach was completely empty.

"Give him another bowl of hot porridge, and then give him his medicine in 15 minutes."

"Yes."

Thanks to Old Man Sun's treatment, Cui Hu did not cause any more trouble that day and slept very soundly that night.

Old Man Sun returned to the Marquis's residence, saying that if anything happened, he should go to the Marquis's residence to find him.

Now that Cui Hu can sleep peacefully, it's clearly better than the past few days.

"Master, perhaps this old sage can truly save our Hu'er. However, the Jiang family is truly hateful. Regardless of whether Jiang Wenhe administered the medicine or not, they cannot escape responsibility for this matter!"

"Don't worry, Madam, I know what I'm doing. How can the men of the Cui family be bullied like this!"

The following morning at the imperial court, officials from the Cui family faction began to impeach the Jiang family extensively.

Jiang Yanping was attacked the most, and Jiang Taifu was also implicated in the attack.

Jiang Wenhe already held an official position, but because his rank was insufficient, he was not allowed to attend the morning court session, and therefore had no opportunity to defend himself.

This matter had already spread like wildfire in the capital, and it was impossible for Emperor Yong'an to be completely unaware of it.

"Choi Yoo-wang!"

"Chen is here!"

"How is Cui Hu?"

"Your Majesty, Cui Hu has been treated by an old physician and will recover in seven days at most. The old physician also frankly stated that my son was poisoned, but fortunately the dose was small; otherwise, he would have already died. I beg Your Majesty to do justice for my unfilial son and give him the due justice he deserves!"

The victim's father has come forward, so Jiang Yanping can no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb.

"Your Majesty, there are still doubts about this matter. We cannot accuse Wenhe of harming others without any evidence. We urge Your Majesty to investigate thoroughly."

Cui Youwang angrily retorted, "My son has already been harmed to this state by Jiang Wenhe, and you still dare to say there's no evidence? Do you have to wait until my son dies to settle this?"

Jiang Yanping was naturally embarrassed after being rebuked, but he still argued, "That's not what I meant. But who can prove that the two jars of wine that Cui Hu used were definitely sent in by my son?"

Choi Yoo-wang's eyes widened: "What do you mean by this?"

“My son did bring two jars of wine into the Cui residence, but your Cui residence has many servants. Who knows if someone took the opportunity to replace the wine?”

The whole room was in uproar!

They all looked at Jiang Yanping with the same expression: This is too shameless!
