The rural doctor bought a husband who was very treacherous

Sure enough, before Su Tang had turned two pages of the book in her hand, Chunmei came in again and asked, "Master, there are several yamen runners from the Dali Temple outside the manor. They said that the Xie family lost something and reported it to the police. They want to search the nearby manors."

"Don't they know that this is the manor of the Grand Princess?" Su Tang lowered the book in her hand and looked at Chunmei.

"The steward told them, but they had documents from the Dali Temple saying that among the things lost by the Xie family there were items bestowed by the emperor, so they have to search here as well."

The Xie family acted quickly enough.

When the Xie family came to search Meizhuang for the first time, they probably had already sent people to the Dali Temple in Beijing to report the case.

Even though Prime Minister Xie had been dismissed, he was still able to open the gates of the capital at night and invite people from the Dali Temple. This shows that Prime Minister Xie's power in the capital should not be underestimated.

Su Tang and Chunmei said, "Let the steward hold them back and tell them that I have gone to bed, and ask them to come back tomorrow morning to search. If they still pester us, let them surround the manor and keep our people inside."

This is to tell people outside that the Grand Princess is currently living in Meizhuang.

Su Tang is the only princess who was personally conferred a title by Emperor Jing and given a posthumous title.

Besides, Su Tang is not married yet, and it is night time now, so these people will not barge in rashly.

Whether there is a master in this manor is two different situations.

After hearing what Su Tang said, Chunmei nodded and left to deal with it outside.

Su Tang simply extinguished the candle in the room and fell asleep.

Meizhuang is quite large, and the yard where Su Tang lives is in the very center of the manor, so no matter how loud the noise is outside the manor, it won't disturb her.

After a good night’s sleep, Su Tang stood up and stretched.

"Chunmei."

"Master, you are awake. I will get you some water to wash up."

"Yeah." Su Tang responded softly.

She got up from the bed and stretched her muscles in the room.

Chunmei entered the house with several maids from the farm.

Those maids must have been trained. After entering the house, they put the toiletries inside and did not look around. They lowered their heads and consciously left.

After the maids had left, Chunmei soaked the cloth in a copper basin, wrung it dry and handed it to Su Tang.

Su Tang wiped her face and rinsed her mouth.

Then he asked again, "How was the Xie family last night?"

"The steward didn't let them in. When the guards from the Dali Temple heard that the princess was at the manor, they didn't make a fuss about coming in, but they still sent people to guard the gate of the manor."

"Just guarding the gate?"

This is a farm in the countryside, and most of the outer walls are not built high, otherwise Su Tang would not have been able to climb into the Xie family's farm so easily last night.

Moreover, a farm in the countryside does not have only one gate. In addition to the main gate for the masters to enter and exit, there are also many small gates.

If these yamen runners only guarded the gate, it would be clear whether they were dealing with the Xie family or were really on good terms with them.

"They only guarded the main gate, saying they were afraid that thieves would disturb the princess." Chunmei took the mouthwash cup handed to her by Su Tang and replied with a smile.

Su Tang raised her eyebrows, and the corners of her mouth curved up.

"Wait until I finish breakfast, and have their people come in to search. Have the village's manager call a few people to follow them personally. Remember, keep an eye on them and don't let them put more things in the village."

In this kind of search, we are not afraid of something being missing, but we are afraid of something being extra.

Chunmei's expression became more serious. After agreeing, she called the maids outside to come in and take the toiletries away.

"I'll bring you breakfast."

After breakfast, Su Tang and Chunmei left the main house.

"What kind of imperial gift did the Xie family lose that could alarm the Dali Temple?"

"They didn't say that."

Su Tang and Chun Mei were strolling in the courtyard of the main house when someone came in. The person did not enter the courtyard but replied loudly outside: "Master, I am the manager of Mei Manor. The runners from the Dali Temple have just left."

"Oh? What did he say?" Chunmei asked on behalf of Su Tang.

"Just say that there is nothing lost by the Xie family on the farm."

"Where have you looked at it? Don't say later that you haven't looked at some places and come back to check again." Chunmei asked again.

"Except for the main courtyard, I personally took them around the farm and even looked at the chicken coop."

Su Tang nodded with satisfaction and said only one word, "Reward."

The manager of Meizhuang was very careful and was able to handle the people from Dali Temple and Xie family with moderation.

"Thanks to the master." The steward's voice was obviously excited.

Su Tang waved her hand and Chunmei sent the manager away.

"The Xie family is a bit chaotic here, Princess, you should go back to Beijing."

"Well, that's fine." Su Tang had achieved her goal and had no reason to stay any longer.

Before leaving, the manager of Mei Manor gave Su Tang a large cart of agricultural products from the manor to take back.

After returning to the capital, Su Tang found an opportunity to visit the palace again.

"Father, I want to accompany Master back to my hometown in the next few days."

"Is there something wrong?" Emperor Jing asked with concern.

"Master goes back to pick herbs at this time every year."

"Then you don't have to accompany him in person. How about I send some guards to accompany him back?"

"Father, I actually want to travel around as well. You know I grew up in the countryside and I always stay in the courtyard of Kyoto. It will take me a while to adapt." Su Tang hugged Emperor Jing's arm and acted coquettishly.

Emperor Jing hesitated for a while, but finally responded, "I didn't know you existed before, and you suffered a lot in the countryside.

Now if you go outside again, I will feel a little worried."

"I have a few maids with me. They were given to me by my second brother. They all know some martial arts. I will take three of them with me this time. I think you should be relieved."

"This..." Emperor Jing still looked worried.

“Father… Actually, Master wants me to go out more often. He wants to pass on his medical skills to me.

If you want to learn this medical skill well, you still need to see more, walk more, and see more patients.

You also know that my clinic has been open for a long time, but no one has come to see a doctor until now. It's because my reputation is not big enough. When I really finish my studies and come back, patients in the capital will line up to see a doctor in my clinic."

"As a princess, it's okay for you to learn some medical skills, but you don't have to learn them thoroughly, otherwise the doctors in the palace will become mere decorations."

"That's not necessarily true. Look, the imperial physician in the palace can't even cure Second Brother's illness."

"Hehe, if those old guys in the Imperial Hospital heard what you said, they would be so angry." Emperor Jing was amused by Su Tang's words.

"Forget it, go if you want to, but don't be too high-profile. Tell others that you are recuperating in the mansion and don't want to go out."

"Okay." Su Tang smiled.

"This is for you. When you see this plaque outside, it's like seeing me in person." Emperor Jing took out a gold medal from the table and handed it to Su Tang.

The gold medal was very exquisite, with the name of Emperor Jing engraved on one side and four large characters written on the other: As if I were here in person.

The font is vigorous and domineering.
