Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan
Chapter 260 Wild Goose Screen
Jixiang helped Qi Yuebin, after all, Qi Yuebin was more important, so he kept his resentment towards the Fourth Prince in his heart.
Now the people guarding Wangshu Pavilion are Yixiu's men. With Yixiu's instructions, someone soon brings the court doctor to treat Qi Yuebin.
The court doctor frowned and felt her pulse, "Qi Gege's body is already weak from the forced abortion. If she continues to be angry, it will affect her lifespan!"
Qi Yuebin's face was pale. She took a deep breath and said to the court physician, "Please prescribe some medicine." She must live well and die before Nian Shilan. She would not close her eyes in peace!
The court physician wrote down the medicine and gave the advice, "Mood swings are not conducive to recovery. Qi Gege should take good care of herself and wait for the day to come." At this point, the court physician's words seemed meaningful.
Qi Yuebin looked at the court physician. He looked unfamiliar. "I have never seen a court physician before. I wonder where he worked before?"
The court doctor replied bitterly, "My last name is Wen Yao. I used to work as a doctor in the Imperial Hospital (rank nine, the lowest rank in the Imperial Hospital, just a little higher than a clerk, but also a formal position). I made a mistake during my tenure, but luckily, my wife helped me, and I was able to continue practicing medicine after leaving the palace."
Wen Yao's words were vague. How could someone like Qi Yuebin not hear the whole story?
Wen Yao was a low-ranking official with little influence, so he took the blame! However, he was rescued by Yixiu. Although he lost his iron rice bowl, at least he kept his medical qualification and his family did not fall into decline. Moreover, entering Prince Yong's mansion was not necessarily a bad thing. Now that the Fourth Prince was in the limelight, he might rise to prominence overnight and return to the Imperial Hospital.
However, Yixiu's vision was indeed correct. She didn't know how good Wen Yao's medical skills were, but he must be a smart man. She explained his background in a few simple sentences without offending the Imperial Hospital. By the way, she told Qi Yuebin that he was Yixiu's man.
Combined with the above, it is known that Wen Yao is delivering a message for Yi Xiu. Qi Yuebin has a plan in mind, and a smile appears on his face. "The doctor of Wen Mansion is indeed extraordinary. I am marrying up. Jixiang, I remember there is a pair of wild goose screens in the storeroom, so I will give them to the doctor of Wen Mansion."
Jixiang was a little hesitant. The wild goose screen had always been Qi Yuebin's favorite. It was made by the most skilled embroiderer in Shu. A pair of wild geese living together and flying together represented the love and loyalty of a couple. If it weren't for Nian Gengyao's concession, the Qi family would never have been able to present such a good thing.
Therefore, whether out of a desire to show goodwill to the Nian family or out of expectation for the Fourth Prince, Qi Yuebin has always cherished this screen, but now he has to give it away.
Qi Yuebin urged Jixiang with his eyes and introduced to Wen Yao, "I observed that the doctor of Wen Mansion must be in love with his wife, so I used this screen to offer flowers to Buddha."
Although Wen Yao had not seen the screen, he could tell from Jixiang's expression that it was valuable. However, before coming, Yixiu had told him to accept whatever Qi Yuebin gave him, so Wen Yao had no choice but to accept it.
However, Wen Yao was more surprised, "How did Qi Gege know that I and my wife have a good relationship?"
Qi Yuebin pointed at Wen Yao's cuffs and smiled.
Wen Yao lifted his sleeves, revealing the bamboo leaves embroidered inside, and understood a little. His wife was not good at embroidery, but she was always willing to sew some inconspicuous details for Wen Yao's clothes. Although the bamboo leaves were not exquisite, the stitches were fine, which showed the attentiveness of the sewist.
"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Qi Gege." Although she said she was embarrassed, Wen Yao showed a sweet smile.
Qi Gege felt bitter in her heart, but her face remained calm. "'Ask the world, what is love that makes people pledge to each other through life and death?' This is what the wild goose is like, a loyal bird, which is a perfect match for the deep love between Doctor Wen and Madam Wen."
Jixiang looked at Wen Yao reluctantly as he left with the screen, and said with some distress, "That was the master's favorite thing."
Qi Gege was more open-minded than Jixiang. "No matter how precious something is, it needs someone to appreciate it. I don't deserve Pingfeng's mood. I might as well give it to Doctor Wen. He will remember me well and pay more attention to me and help me regulate my body." Otherwise, if I stay with Qi Yuebin, I will just be gathering dust in the warehouse.
The doctor from the Wen Mansion who had just left came to Yixiu to report with some trepidation. After looking at the things the two eunuchs were carrying, he discovered that the wild goose screen was much more valuable than he had imagined. However, the things had already been packed, and Qi Yuebin did not give Wen Yao the right to refuse.
Yixiu was a little surprised to hear that Qi Yuebin had given her a wild goose screen. This screen was a treasured item of Concubine Qi, and it was well known in the mansion. It was only because Wen Yao had not stayed in the mansion long enough that he did not know the origin of the screen.
When the screen was first delivered, Li Jingyan had found fault with it, saying that Qi Yuebin's yearning for wild geese was disrespectful to Yixiu. After all, wild geese are monogamous, and even if there is one, it should be the Fourth Prince and Yixiu, not Qi Yuebin's turn.
But Qi Yuebin, who was always easy to talk to, was uncharacteristically determined to keep the screen and ridiculed Li Jingyan for it. Since then, the Wild Goose Screen has become famous. Everyone knows that it is okay to provoke Qi Shufujin, but never mention the Wild Goose Screen.
Qi Yuebin vomited blood because his family was persecuted by the Nian family, which could not be hidden from Yixiu. Yixiu thought that Qi Yuebin had put all the blame on Nian Shilan. Even the big wild goose screen was given away. It seemed that Qi Yuebin was not without resentment towards the Fourth Prince.
Looking at the uneasy Wen Yao below, Yi Xiu comforted her, "Since Qi Gege has given it to you, you can take it with confidence. You will have to take care of her health in the future."
Wen Yao heaved a sigh of relief after getting Yi Xiu's confirmation, and made up his mind to help Qi Yuebin recover.
After Wen Yao left, Jianqiu asked doubtfully, "What did Qi Gege mean by giving away the wild goose screen?" She couldn't be really envious of the good relationship between the doctor and his wife in the Wen family.
Yi Xiu exclaimed, "I have heard that Qi Gege has been studying for many years. She is really very deep in her studies. The Zhou Li says, 'The solitary holds the leather and silk, the noble holds the lamb, the senior official holds the goose, and the scholar holds the pheasant.'"
In just fourteen words, the standards for gift-giving for four levels were set. The princes exchanged animal skins and silks with each other; the nobles were to send sheep, meaning that they were polite, benevolent, and principled like sheep, and were willing to die for justice; the officials under the nobles were to send wild geese, which "fly in a line and stop in a formation," meaning that they were loyal to the monarch; the scholars were to send pheasants, because pheasants had personalities and would not eat food fed by humans, meaning that they were mighty and unyielding, and wealthy but not extravagant.
By analogy, it makes sense why Qi Yuebin sent the wild geese, which meant he was trying to get closer to Yixiu.
Yixiu mentioned Zhou Li, but Jianqiu didn't understand and was even more confused. Yixiu smiled and said, "It means that Qi Gege wants to depend on me."
After hearing this, Jianqiu understood, "But from my opinion, Qi Gege doesn't seem like someone who would stay with An Ju." Nian Shilan was quite nice to Qi Yuebin, but Qi Yuebin had not given up the idea of getting promoted. Jianqiu was afraid that Qi Yuebin might join Yi Xiu as a stopgap measure.
