Painting Doctor Jinhua
Chapter 16 Reversal
Xiao Jinyu had no objection and let the old woman take the prescription and hurried to Fengxiu Pavilion where Princess Yunyin lived.
Princess Yunyin called the doctor in the mansion to see her without saying a word.
The doctor took the prescription and frowned. Princess Yunyin asked, "How is it? How is this prescription different from yours?"
The doctor replied, "Madam, I don't see any difference. This is just a very common prescription for curing typhoid fever."
Princess Yunyin smiled and said, "Oh, I thought he was such an amazing doctor, but it turns out he is just this good."
"Miracle doctor?" Doctor Ji seemed very surprised, with a look of deep worry on his face.
"Why? Do you have anything to say?"
The doctor lowered his head and replied: "Although this prescription is very ordinary, the handwriting of this doctor is very unique. It even reminds me of someone."
"Who does it look like?" Princess Yunyin became more alert.
The identity of the doctor Liu Lu is a bit special. He was originally a child of a noble family. Because he liked reading medical books since he was a child, he later became a disciple of a very famous doctor in Jiankang City. From then on, he worked hard to study and became a real doctor. Although he was a doctor, Liu Lu did not give up the habit of socializing as a child of a noble family. At a banquet, he composed poems and talked about the medicine of Ge Shi, a famous doctor in the Jin Dynasty. He was valued by Xiao Tong, the prince of Southern Liang at that time, and from then on he entered the East Palace and became the exclusive imperial physician of Prince Zhaoming.
"Madam, you also know that I was originally the exclusive imperial physician of Prince Zhaoming. The prince likes mountains and rivers and loves literature. He often holds banquets in the East Palace and invites the children of the major families in Jiankang City to participate in his elegant gatherings. They exchange ideas through literature, not discussing classics and history. All the poems and essays that stand out at the banquets will be selected by the prince and included in his collection to be passed down to future generations."
"Of course I know that. The Zhaoming Wenxuan, which is hosted by Prince Zhaoming, collects poetry and prose." Princess Yunyin seemed to understand something and asked, "Do you mean that the handwriting of this doctor is similar to that of a certain nobleman you have seen?"
The doctor shook his head again: "It's not a noble family member, but a girl."
"Girl?"
"Yes, Xie Yuqing, the eldest daughter of the Xie family."
When they heard the name Xie Yuqing, Princess Yunyin and Old Lady Jiang's faces changed in horror.
"How dare you mention this name in front of the princess?" Old Lady Jiang shouted.
Perhaps many people have forgotten this name now, but more than ten years ago, the three words "Xie Yuqing" were well-known.
Although it is not the prosperous era of stability and prosperity, the Southern Dynasty has entered a relatively stable period. But on the eve of this stability, the Southern Dynasty, or the previous Southern Liang Dynasty, experienced a devastating disaster. This disaster was not a natural disaster, but man-made. Xie Yuqing died in that disaster, and her unshakable aristocratic family was destroyed along with it.
How ridiculous! That noble and famous family that had taken root in Jiankang City for a hundred years, which was not even taken seriously by the royal family, that family that people could only look up to and made them look like ants in the dust, actually collapsed overnight.
The four seasons of heaven and earth are still changing, water, clouds, stars and moon are still growing and declining. It seems that nothing in this world is permanent.
"Madam, it's not that I have to mention this person, but the kind of calligraphy she created was praised by even Prince Zhaoming as 'smooth and elegant, with strong bones and strength' and 'novel in form, strict in rules, and magnificent in momentum'. No one among the aristocratic families at that time could match her."
Upon hearing this, Princess Yunyin immediately took the prescription again and looked at it. Although the paper was rough, the words on it looked like they were engraved one by one. She had just glanced at it and did not take it seriously, but now that she looked at it carefully, she was unconsciously attracted to it.
She had also heard that the words written by that woman, like her paintings, would make people unable to help but be deeply immersed in them.
Princess Yunyin took a step back unconsciously. How could this be possible?
"How is that possible? Didn't she die twenty years ago? And..."
Moreover, this name has become a taboo in the eyes of her royal brother. The entire palace and even the entire Jiankang city are not allowed to discuss the name Xie Yuqing.
Seeing Princess Yunyin lose her composure, the doctor quickly replied, "Madam, don't worry. I just said it looks like the original. However, the words on the prescription are still a little different from those of the talented lady Xie. She must be a beginner who only saw the shape but not the spirit."
Indeed, the Liuming style created by that woman was imitated by many people at that time.
After hearing what the doctor said, Princess Yunyin's fear disappeared by more than half, but she couldn't help but said angrily: "If she doesn't look very similar, then why did you mention her? I thought it was a ghost in broad daylight!"
If you don't do anything wrong in your life, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door at night.
The doctor lowered his head to hide the surprise in his eyes.
"Go down! Go down!"
Princess Yunyin waved her hands impatiently, and the doctor said yes and retreated.
As soon as the doctor left, Mrs. Jiang brought her a cup of tea to calm her down.
"Princess, please don't be angry. In my opinion, this Liu Lu is just talking nonsense and disturbing your mind. You'd better send him away. He is just a homeless beggar. He really thinks he is still the young man from a noble family who was respected and appreciated by Prince Zhaoming more than 20 years ago. He doesn't feel ashamed to show off his literary talent in front of you from time to time." said Old Lady Jiang.
Liu Lu's family was also killed during the Hou Jing Rebellion. Seven years ago, Princess Yunyin met this sad man in ragged clothes in front of an abandoned house. After asking about his surname and past, she took him into her palace as a doctor.
"These sons of noble families are like this, they like to show off their literary talent. If he wants to show off, then let him do it. It's just one more person to support. My Xiao family can afford to support him. Besides, his medical skills have been recognized by Prince Zhaoming."
"What does it matter if he approves of you? Prince Zhaoming still died of illness in the end."
Princess Yunyin gave her a sidelong glance and Old Lady Jiang stopped talking.
The death of Prince Zhaoming was truly bizarre. He was swimming in a pond in his own mansion when he unfortunately fell into the water and hit a rock, injuring his leg. But he never expected that such a small injury could eventually cost him his life.
"I originally thought that the people who came back were just the remnants of a bastard, but I didn't expect that they would bring up all these nonsense." After throwing the white porcelain teacup on the table, she asked again, "Do you think these two people were sent by that bastard to test me first?"
"It's just a letter. Princess, don't take it too seriously. It's still unclear whether the person who wrote the letter is the son of that woman. Besides, the wife of the county lord of Qi is not a pushover." At this point, she whispered, "Besides, it was not you who decided that thing back then. It was the woman who was shameless and made a mistake. She was kicked out of the Xiao family. What does it have to do with you, Princess?"
Princess Yunyin's eyes flashed, and she quickly took the letter she had received before and looked at it. She didn't see any similarities. In an instant, the anger and sadness on her face disappeared, and were replaced by a lazy and charming look.
"No matter what, we still need to be careful. If we let the wolf into the house like Emperor Liang did back then, my Xiao family will be ruined."
"Of course, I will definitely send someone to keep a close eye on those two gentlemen."
At this point, Jiang Yu seemed to have thought of something, and asked in a low voice: "But, that young man, the princess is planning to..."
Thinking of how Princess Yunyin had suddenly mentioned Han Zigao and compared him to that young man, Jiang Yu's heart ached. Han Zigao had just died in prison, and in the eyes of the current emperor, she was undoubtedly a taboo like the talented woman from the Xie family.
And Han Zigao back then...
"Mrs. Jiang, do you know why my brother wants Han Zigao to die?"
"How dare I guess the emperor's mind? I naturally don't know."
"It's no exaggeration to say that Han Zigao is a man of beauty who brings disaster. He caused Princess Yuhua to die of lovesickness and the Wang family to be wiped out. Naturally, he can also cause the destruction of a country."
"Emperor Wen was willing to offend all the officials in the court for her sake and insisted on making him the male queen. How could such a king win the hearts of his officials and how could he last long?"
"How can my brother let a person who deceives the king and brings disaster to the country and the people live?"
"Yes, Princess is right." Old Lady Jiang said flatteringly.
Princess Yunyin changed the subject again: "Of course, there is another more secret reason, which no one can guess..."
After saying that, she stopped talking when she saw Mrs. Jiang looking at her curiously.
"Forget it. Go check on the situation over there. And here's the prescription... Send the medicine according to the prescription and see how long Xiao Shiniang can live. I originally wanted to..." At this point he sighed again, "Well, if this life can be extended, then let it be extended. It won't be in vain for our relationship as grandparents and grandchildren."
"Yes."
Mrs. Jiang smiled, took the prescription, went out, handed it to Mrs. Wei, and whispered some things to her.
……
at this time,
There was an eerie silence in Xiao Shiniang's Lingqing Pavilion.
The young girl and Xiao Jinyu looked at each other across the curtain.
"You are not a doctor, and you are not here to treat me. What is your purpose in coming to my Xiao family?" After the old lady Wei left for a while, the girl suddenly stood up, looked at Xiao Jinyu with a slightly sarcastic look, and asked.
