Painting Doctor Jinhua
Chapter 54: Want to Kill Xiao Xian
Xiao Jian almost fell to the ground with his eyes going black!
Fortunately, the servant beside him held him steady.
Then, under his questioning, the maid recounted in detail everything that had happened in the Ascott. Although the maid's statement was half true and half false due to the pressure from Princess Yunyin, Xiao Jian also roughly understood the cause and process of the incident.
"So, it was this bastard who was so lustful that he wanted to take possession of his own niece, so he was outmaneuvered and ended up in such a ridiculous way?"
Then, he pointed at Princess Yunyin and said, "It's all your fault. What have you taught your son to be like? It's fine that he's ignorant and just drinks and has fun with his bad friends, but he actually..."
Princess Yunyin sneered: "Now you are blaming me. People say that if a son is not well educated, it is the fault of the father. Don't you have any fault?"
When I said this, I couldn't help but feel a little nervous. It seemed like that bitch had also said the same thing!
Xiao Jian felt that he could no longer argue with this unreasonable woman, so he waved his hand and said, "Forget it, it's useless to say these things now. The most urgent task is to heal Balang's injury, otherwise my Xiao family..."
At this point, his face darkened, as if he had made a decision. "We have to let Balang apologize to Ayu, and you... also have to apologize to the child... maybe the child will soften her heart and agree... her mother Aluan is a very kind person!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Princess Yunyin saw that he was talking incoherently and seemed to have no idea what he meant.
Xiao Jian looked at her.
"Have you forgotten that A-luan was a doctor before? Jinyu has always been with A-luan. A-luan will definitely pass on this medical skill to her child. I still remember that A-luan has been knowledgeable and erudite since she was a child, better than her brothers. She has read many medical books, and her medical skills were highly praised by many doctors at the time. Even Yao Boshen praised A-luan's medical skills and said that there is a successor to Zhang Zhongjing!"
Princess Yunyin's face suddenly darkened, and she immediately remembered what Xiao Jinyu had said to her in Ascott: Your Highness, don't you know that I'm a doctor?
That remark was extremely sarcastic and mocking, but she didn't care at first. Even though she had first visited the Xiao Mansion as a doctor, she didn't believe how capable this lowly maid could be or how skilled her medical skills were!
It's just a trick!
"Impossible, how could this lowly slave know medical skills? Even if she did, what good can her skills do?" Princess Yunyin said angrily, not knowing whether she was angry at others or at herself!
"But now, apart from her, can you find anyone else in Jiankang City to treat Balang? If we delay any further, Balang will really become a useless person!" Xiao Jian said angrily.
Speaking of the word "useless person", Princess Yunyin suddenly felt as if a basin of cold water was poured over her head, and a biting chill penetrated into her bones.
No, her son cannot be abandoned. She still hopes that her son will inherit the Xiao family lineage and everything in the Xiao family in the future. Wasn't it for all this that she planned to marry into the Xiao family in the first place?
"Then I will search the whole Jiankang City for famous doctors. I don't believe there is no one in this world who can cure Balang!" She suddenly said as if making a vow.
Xiao Jian felt that he could no longer talk to her, so after giving the prescription to the servant, he simply walked out of Yixiangyuan, returned to his study, and called the housekeeper over.
"Let's go check first. Where is Xiao Jinyu... A-Luan's daughter, my granddaughter?"
Butler Zhao nodded and arranged the matter. An hour later, he returned with news.
"My dear, Miss Xiao Jinyu is still in the Xinghua Yanyu Tower and has not left yet!"
"What is she still doing in the Xinghua Yanyu Tower? Isn't it bad for her reputation for a young lady to stay in a place like that?"
Xiao Jian felt a little irritated for no reason. Too many things happened that day and they were too confusing. He couldn't figure it out for a while, but nothing went as he wished.
Butler Zhao was still sweating coldly. He glanced at Xiao Jian and replied, "I heard that he was treating Mr. Qi!"
Xiao Jian stood up suddenly.
"What did you say? Who are you treating?"
"Seventh Young Master, that is... Xian Young Master!"
Xiao Xian? Yes, he almost forgot that he had such a son. Because he was suffering from a serious illness and half paralyzed, he was already dying. He didn't know when he had stopped asking about his son's affairs and let him fend for himself. And since seven years ago, this son had a big fight with him and never appeared in front of him again.
Until three years ago, during the Zhongzheng examination, he was rated as the upper grade of the second rank for his poem "Climbing High", and won the reputation of being the most talented person in Jiankang City.
But no matter how talented or famous one is, what’s the use? For a person who is destined to die young, all these glory will be buried in dust after his death.
But now...
"You said she was treating the Seventh Young Master Xiao Xian?" Xiao Jian asked again, seeming unbelievable.
"Yes, what I heard is absolutely true. Even the proprietress of the Xinghua Yanyu Tower seems to be curiously waiting for a result."
It was precisely because of the proprietress's curiosity that when he went to inquire about the news, it was effortless. The waiters there told him everything he wanted to hear, including everything that happened in Ascott today.
"Come on, let's go and have a look too. No, just me, I'll go and have a look by myself!"
……
"What did you say? She is treating the seventh young master, Xiao Xian?"
The news soon reached Yixiangyuan and Princess Yunyin's ears.
Princess Yunyin glanced at her son who was lying on the bed and fainted from the pain. Then she thought of the scene in Ascott today where Xiao Xian had spoken rudely to her, and her hatred grew even stronger!
"This Xiao Xian usually pretends to be indifferent to everything in the mansion in front of me, making me think that he has given up on himself and is just waiting to die. I didn't expect that he would dare to speak for that little bitch and talk back to me today!"
"Well, since she is treating him, let him die from the disease and never wake up. Then we can arrest her for the crime of harming Xiao's legitimate son! We can execute her legitimately!"
The more Princess Yunyin thought about it, the more she felt that this plan was feasible, so she instructed Jiang Yu beside her, "This time, don't send your troops, and don't use my Xiao family's assassins. Tell the assassin Nie Yinniang to come over and tell her that my Xiao family is willing to pay a thousand gold coins to buy Xiao Xian's life!"
"Yes!"
……
"How long has it been? Why hasn't he come out yet?"
At this time, there were still seven people waiting in the Ascott, including Li Mi, Cui Heng, Madam Wei, Sishe beside her, Xiao Shiniang, and Feng Dong who was pacing back and forth restlessly.
"Mr. Li, Mr. Cui, why don't you leave yet? Are you going to stay in my Xinghua Yanyu Tower tonight?"
Madam Wei, who was bored to death, couldn't help but tease Li Mi, "What's the matter? Could it be that you have taken a fancy to one of the girls in my building?"
"Don't even think about it, boss lady. In the heart of our Mr. Cui, I'm afraid any girl in your building cannot compare to the one in that wing room!" Li Mi replied with a smile.
"Yonghe, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"I'm not talking nonsense, because I think so too!" Li Mi touched his chin and said, "It's really rare to see a beauty like this who is not only beautiful, but also courageous and wise! As a gentleman, it's normal to love beauty, don't you think so, Madam Boss?"
"Please call me Lady Wei!" The charming woman in red smiled and asked, "Is the young lady very beautiful? But I saw that she was always wearing a veil, so I couldn't see her true face. Lord Li, have you seen her?"
"Of course. When I first saw her in Xuzhou Pengcheng, her face was so beautiful..."
Li Mi looked fascinated, but before he could finish his words, Cui Heng interrupted him: "Yonghe, stop talking!"
"Oh, you're talking too much!" As if thinking of something, Li Mi quickly stopped talking and changed the subject, "This Xiao Xianlang is also an unparalleled talent in the south. We admire his talent. No matter what, we have to wait until he wakes up before we leave. Anyway, we have nothing to do... Madam Wei, what do you think?"
Madam Wei smiled and tactfully stopped asking any more questions.
At this time, the door of the wing room opened with a "creak" and Fenghuang walked out of the room. Feng Dong and Xiao Shiniang hurried to greet her.
"How is it? Is my husband awake?"
"Is my seventh uncle awake?"
Feng Huang saw Feng Dong and Xiao Shiniang looking anxious and shook her head.
"Not yet, but Brother Qing hasn't eaten for most of the day. Ah Xiu, please use the small kitchen in the Xinghua Yanyu Tower to make a bowl of Sophora japonica leaf cold noodles for Brother Qing. The recipe is already written here!"
As he spoke, Fenghuang handed a small book to Ah Xiu.
"Yes!" Ah Xiu replied.
"Hey, you little Shubo, aren't you the one from that day..." Li Mi saw that he looked familiar, and couldn't help but ask, "So you guys were teasing me on purpose that day? Wait, what is this Huaiye Lengtao?"
"Yes! What does the young lady want to eat? Can't you just tell us? It's not like there is no food in my Xinghua Yanyu Tower," said Madam Wei.
"Just eat Sophora japonica leaf cold noodles, do you know how to make it?" Fenghuang asked bluntly.
Madam Wei was silent. What is this? How come I have never heard of it?
"Besides, I don't trust you!" Phoenix then added, "I'm afraid it won't be peaceful tonight. Don't you want to avoid disaster?"
When asking this question, his eyes swept over Cui Heng and Li Mi.
Cui Heng's expression changed solemnly, but Li Mi said disapprovingly: "Not peaceful? How is it not peaceful?"
The phoenix suddenly stopped, moved its ears, and swiftly climbed onto the eaves, peeled off the tiles, and flew out onto the roof.
