The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple

Bai Yu raised his thumbs with both hands to praise Chu Yunxi, "Princess, you are amazing."

"Report to the prince, saying that I have been overworked these past two days and am not feeling well. I will not be coming. Please ask Lord Sun to call the imperial physician."

Bai Yu was confused, "He finally came, Princess, why don't you go to see him?"

"If I rush to see him, how can I demonstrate my value?" Chu Yunxi picked up the teacup and drank the tea leisurely.

Bai Yu didn't quite understand, but what the princess said must be right, so he just did as she said.

After a while, Xiao Mubei came over, and Chu Yunxi asked, "Sent him away?"

"I'm leaving, but I'll come back tomorrow." Xiao Mubei sat down, his brows furrowed. "It's been seven days, and there are only three days left before the deadline given by my father. Yunxi, are we going to delay any longer?"

"I have to delay so as not to arouse Sun Shiche's suspicion. He is the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, a first-rank official. With his status, it is easy for him to invite the imperial physician from the palace. If I go as soon as I am invited without considering the face of the Imperial Hospital, he will think that I have some ulterior motives. In addition, with your status, he will suspect that we are waiting for him. Then I will gain nothing by going to the Sun Mansion. But if I go only after he repeatedly invites me, first of all, he will not dare to neglect me psychologically, and his doubts will be dispelled. After my treatment, if Sun Shaozhen gets better, he will listen to me."

Xiao Mubei understood that what Chu Yunxi said was true, and haste makes waste, so he nodded, "Okay, I'll do as you say, and I'll reject him tomorrow."

On the second day, Sun Shiche came again early in the morning as expected. This time, Sun Shaoyuan also came with him. They both brought a bunch of gifts.

Xiao Mubei went to the Dali Temple after the court session in the morning, and Chu Yunxi also went to Ruyun Tower. The father and son waited in the palace until noon, when Xiao Mubei finally came back. As soon as he entered the door, he apologized, "I'm sorry, Minister Sun. I'm busy with the affairs of the Dali Temple today, and I haven't been able to get away. I've kept you and Mr. Sun waiting for a long time."

Sun Shiche was in his fifties, his hair was already gray, and it was obvious that he was always worried. He was not angry at being ignored, and still said with a smile: "Your Highness, what are you talking about? I am the one who disturbed you."

After a few polite words, Sun Shiche got straight to the point, "I wonder if the princess would be willing to go to my humble abode and help my daughter? I would be very grateful."

Xiao Mubei looked embarrassed. "Minister Sun, it's not that Yunxi doesn't want to go. I told her yesterday, but she said that if she went, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the imperial doctors? She treats the people and doesn't have to worry about anything, but Minister Sun is in a high position after all. It's normal for Yunxi to have concerns."

Sun Shiche said anxiously, "It is precisely because the imperial physician cannot cure my daughter's illness that I have to find another way. I have already searched for famous doctors among the people. I have already slapped them in the face countless times. Princess, don't worry about it. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. If there is any problem, I will take full responsibility."

"Since Minister Sun said so, I will talk to Yunxi again. However, she didn't know how to face Minister Sun today, so she hid away. She will probably come back in the evening. Minister Sun, please come again tomorrow."

Xiao Mubei sent Sun Shiche and his son away with an apologetic look on his face, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. He deliberately made things clear just to dispel Sun Shiche's suspicion.

On the third day, Sun Shiche came even earlier, and this time he brought his two sons, Sun Shaoyuan and Sun Shaochen.

This time Chu Yunxi didn't make them wait too long and came out quickly.

She was wearing a goose yellow dress today, which made her eyes bright and her teeth white. When Sun Shiche and his two sons saw Chu Yunxi, they were a little skeptical. They thought that could such a young princess really have better medical skills than the doctors in the Imperial Hospital?

But the news spread widely in the capital that the heart disease patients who had been treated by the princess had indeed shown great improvement. They even visited several homes in person and met the patients, and they found that they were indeed different from before.

That's why I have to believe that Chu Yunxi really has superb medical skills.

The three of them bowed to Chu Yunxi together, "Greetings, Princess."

Chu Yunxi walked up to the group of people gracefully and said with a smile, "Minister Sun and the two young masters, there is no need to be so polite. I heard that Minister Sun has been running to Dingbei Palace for three consecutive days. Yunxi really feels bad and wants to apologize to Minister Sun."

Sun Shiche said hurriedly, "Princess, you are too kind. I understand your concerns. As long as Princess is willing to treat my daughter, I will definitely reward her handsomely."

"You don't need to give me a big reward. The palace has everything," Chu Yunxi said calmly, "but I have always liked to solve difficult and complicated diseases. I heard that the daughter of Minister Sun has had a heart disease since birth. This is quite curious. I will go with you to take a look."

"Thank you, Princess."

Sun Shiche and his two sons hurriedly expressed their gratitude.

Chu Yunxi said calmly: "Just take a look. Whether it can be cured depends on the condition. Don't hold too high hopes."

"The three of us, father and son, are extremely grateful that the princess is willing to go and see my little sister." Sun Shaoyuan spoke for his father.

Chu Yunxi nodded and called out casually, "Alan, let's go."

Sun Shiche and his two sons saw a flash before their eyes, and then there was a person standing behind Chu Yunxi, holding a medicine box in his hand.

Chu Yunxi still said calmly: "Is it okay for Minister Sun to bring a guard with me?"

Sun Shiche said hurriedly: "Of course I don't mind."

The five of them left the palace. Bai Yu and Xiao Mubei appeared in the courtyard. Looking at the door, Bai Yu said, "Your Majesty, are you going to let the princess go with them?"

Xiao Mubei said: "The princess has been planning for many days just for today, how can we stop her? I believe Yunxi, she can do it."

But in his heart he secretly said: "Yunxi, you must be careful."

Sun Mansion.

Chu Yunxi felt oppressed as soon as she entered the room. Wen Rulan followed behind her and whispered, "There are many secret guards with strong martial arts skills here."

"I feel it." Chu Yunxi also whispered, "A civil servant has so many secret guards. Who would believe that there is no ulterior motive?"

The two did not dare to say much, and just followed Sun Shiche around the mansion and came to a small courtyard in the deepest part of the Sun mansion.

The courtyard outside is full of bamboos, which rustle in the wind. There is also a tall sycamore tree, which provides a large shade in the courtyard. The environment here is quiet and the air is fresh. It is indeed a good place.

At this moment, a skinny girl was lying on the lounge chair under the tree.

The girl's face was pale, the kind of paleness that comes from being extremely ill. Even her lips were pale, without a trace of blood. Her big eyes were watery, and she was choking with sobs as she said to a woman in front of her, "Mother, I feel sick."

The woman was very pretty. Although she was not young anymore, she still had her charm. She gently rubbed the girl's chest and said, "Dear Zhen'er, your father and brother have gone to get a doctor for you. They will be back soon. Just bear with it."
