Riding a motorcycle on the road of revenge

To be on the safe side, Gu Songting also asked someone to call Gu Xianya to his mother's Furongyuan.

He wanted to ask Doctor Xu to go to Gu Xianya, but his mother was in such a state that she probably had no intention of accompanying the doctor. And as a brother, it was not easy for him to bring a man from another family to his sister's yard. Besides, his sister had such a bad temper that even her parents might not be able to calm her down. How could he, as a brother, be able to handle it? Not to mention the servants.

So it would be better for Gu Xianya to come.

Unexpectedly, the eldest lady really got angry and refused to come over no matter what, and insisted that the doctor come over.

Gu Songting was a little embarrassed.

Unfortunately, my father seemed to be asleep at this time, and my mother went back behind the screen and didn't say anything. Doctor Xu sat aside, and the little medicine boy was packing the medicine box.

He didn't think that the little medicine boy packed his medicine box to go to Rongluo Hospital for medical treatment.

Just a few days ago, Doctor Xu had just experienced his sister's spoiled temper.

At this time, Doctor Xu had made up his mind that he would never go to see Gu Xianya without the company of Minister Gu and his wife.

Gu Songting had no choice but to shamelessly ask Doctor Xu to go outside for tea. He then went to talk to his mother, hoping that she would help.

As a result, Zhang Zhutou told his son that Gu Xianya's face could be treated according to the method used by her and her mother, and there was no need to see a doctor.

After listening to this, Gu Songting thought about the diagnosis and prescription given by Dr. Xu after he looked at his and his mother's faces, and he also thought that what his mother said made sense.

So he paid Dr. Xu double the medical fee and sent him away politely.

Xiaoyue watched the entire process of Dr. Xu's consultation in the space, which reminded her of the news she heard from Xu Dong.

At noon at Zhenwei Building, she deliberately took Xu Dong to the basement in the space, and after some intimidation, she learned some things.

Xu Dong's father, Xu Ping'an, practiced medicine at Tongchuntang. He spent most of his time at Tongchuntang in Shangjing City and occasionally went to Tongchuntang in Xinghua County.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, his words revealed that the pig-faced mother and her two children were poisoned. Besides, the prescription he prescribed could indeed relieve the itching. But it couldn't detoxify.

Xiaoyue still has confidence in the poison she prepared.

Furthermore, Doctor Xu also discovered that the itchiness on Gu Songting's face and the itchiness on Zhang Zhutou's face had the same symptoms, and used the same antipruritic prescription.

Therefore, she thought that Dr. Xu's medical skills were remarkable.

She knew the level of the doctors at Baicaotang. Tongchuntang had Doctor Xu, which Baicaotang could not compare with.

Xiaoyue was thinking about Xu Ping'an's medical skills, while Gu Zhazha used the excuse of "visiting his daughter" to send Zhang Zhutoulian away, leaving Gu Songting behind.

Are father and son going to gossip about each other?

Xiaoyue became interested and used space teleportation to get closer to Gu Zhazha.

"Song'er..."

"Father."

"Song'er, our Gu family is being targeted. You must be careful in the future."

"Father, why do you say that?"

"From what Doctor Xu said, your mother's face was poisoned. She has been staying in the mansion all these days, so how could she be poisoned? There have been no new servants in the mansion in recent years, and they were all selected by your mother herself. Who dares to harm the master? The things that happened at home recently must have been caused by outsiders."

"Father is right. Can we find some more guards for our mansion?"

"The other party is very capable. Not an ordinary guard can protect him."

"Father, did we offend the other party, or, or was it someone in the officialdom..."

"The Seventh Prince won a victory in the northwest and will be back soon. The Empress and Imperial Concubine in the palace, the Crown Prince and the Second Prince in the court, anyone with a discerning eye can see their open and secret struggles. As the Minister of Revenue, your father has always been the target of both sides' attempts to win him over. And your father... Song'er, which side do you think your father is on?"

"This……"

"Song'er doesn't know."

"Yes. I don't stand on either side. If I have to say, I stand on the side of the emperor."

"The emperor is in his prime, and he has more sons than just the crown prince and the second prince."

"My son knows."

"You've been in frequent contact with Zhang Zijin recently. But is that true?"

"Yes."

"Zhang Zijin is a dandy. The Wenchang Marquis's mansion belongs to the Imperial Concubine and the Second Prince. And there's that Xu Dong. He follows Zhang Zijin around every day."

"The ostensible owner of Tongchuntang is the Yongning Marquis Ma family. Do you know how big the business has grown in the past few years? Their business has even reached the military and the palace. The Ma family has some power and ability, but it's not enough to show off. Besides, Doctor Xu is a very noble person. Guess why he came to Tongchuntang to see patients?"

"I heard it was because of the sitting fee..."

"That's what they said to the outside world. Do you believe it? Does the Xu family need the court fee? The old man of the Xu family is an imperial physician, but the Xu family is not only good at medicine, but also at medicinal materials. They have many medicinal fields, and they grow and prepare medicines. They are famous in our Zhou Dynasty."

"It's my son who is ignorant."

"The Xu family is low-key. Ever since the Xu family produced an imperial physician, they have been much more low-key when it comes to medicinal materials."

"Thank you father for your teaching."

"Song'er is a smart one. All your hopes are on you."

Gu Songting was indeed smart and understood many things in an instant. Thinking about Xu Dong and then thinking about himself, he felt that Xu Dong was no match for him. He was just a playboy who was neither good at literature nor martial arts.

Not to mention Xu Dong, even Zhang Zijin and even Zhang Zifeng, there is a huge gap between me and them.

In order to reassure his father, he repeatedly said that he would be careful in what he said and did, and would not be blinded by petty gains. He also told his father about having lunch at Zhenweilou today, and about Zhang Zijin wanting their Gu family to open branches of Zhenweilou in other states. He also said that the second prince wanted to cooperate with their Zhenweilou.

"Yes. At Zhenwei Restaurant this afternoon, Zhang Zijin mentioned..."

Gu Zhazha closed his eyes and listened without interrupting. After Gu Songting finished speaking, he did not comment either.

"Father, you..."

"Song'er, did you listen to what your father just said?"

"I listened."

"Then why are you asking your father?"

"Yes, my son knows."

"Well, reply properly and don't hurt the relationship."

Xiaoyue didn't expect that this Gu Zhazha was really an old fox.

Doctor Xu went to Tongchuntang to see patients because of Xu Dong. I really didn't realize that Xu Dong was such a capable person.

Gu Zhazha was probably tired because he had said a lot of things. He asked Gu Songting to go and have a rest, and he also closed his eyes.

This conversation gave Xiaoyue a new understanding of the current situation. She originally just wanted to find her relatives and avenge the original owner, but she didn't expect that if she wasn't careful, she would be involved in the palace struggle for the heir.

She knew that Tongchuntang had set its sights on Baicaotang and was trying to steal its business. The medicine villages that supplied the army were short-changed and selling inferior products as good ones, thus monopolizing the market. This also made her feel that Tongchuntang's affairs were not as simple as the medicine business.
