Chapter 42 Subduing Shi Lin
Jian'an Palace.
Wu Yan dressed in black and walked to the study in the dark night.
"Young Master, my subordinates have found out that there was still some days before in the Dongli Restaurant. The sixth prince Song Jingyu was in the palace."
It was Song Jingyu. He always followed the prince honestly. Even Song Jingyun thought he was just a lackey of the prince, but he didn't expect that his scheming was hidden.
But no matter how scheming he is, since he dares to take Shanghai Yang Xuqiu, he must be prepared to pay the price.
"Go and check where Song Jingyu's hands and feet are stretched out." He didn't put Song Jingyu in appreciation, so he didn't have much information.
"Yes, there are two people that the young master asked me to find, which is a bit tricky now."
Song Jingyun put down the book in his hand, "What's wrong?"
Wu Yan frowned slightly, "Cao Yi is now in a remote village in Kyoto, and his subordinates want to redeem him, but he refuses and says he can't go out. There is also Shi Lin, who is in Kyoto, but now he is strange in character and good at drug manufacturing. I have never seen him yet."
Any talented person will inevitably become more arrogant.
"Well, you only tell me the specific locations of these two people, and you don't have to worry about the others."
After Wu Yan retreated, Song Jingyun remained silent for a long time. None of the emperor's sons were foolish and incompetent, but now it seems that Song Jingyu has some tricks.
The winter in Kyoto is long, and Yang Xuqiu never goes out, but today she only brought Bai Ji and Lang Xing and went out.
"Miss, why don't we go, it's too dangerous." Bai Ji couldn't help but worry.
Yang Xuqiu smiled faintly and said, "It's okay."
"But the prince said that this person is good at poisoning, and even Wu Yan almost suffered a secret loss. We should be more careful."
Shi Lin must win over Yang Xuqiu. She felt very distressed when she made this favor for the prince. But now the prince has sent the ready-made one to him. It would be a pity not to start.
The carriage was parked at the entrance of the poor alleys in Kyoto. Most of the people living here were poor people.
Shi Linkong has all his skills, but he is unwilling to be used by others. He is usually in the poor people around here to treat medical treatment. However, these people don’t even have money to get medicine, let alone money to treat him.
Moreover, he also needed to spend money to develop poison pills. After a while, his family couldn't save money.
"Oh, where is Shi Lin's house?" Bai Ji asked, walking to the thin old woman who was selling her needlework.
"What are you looking for him?" The old woman's eyes were full of defense.
"We just heard that Doctor Shi is skilled in medical skills and I want to ask for advice if you have something to do." Bai Ji replied in a gentle voice, but the old woman said impatiently: "He is not here, you have found the wrong place."
It's impossible, the prince will definitely not give it wrong.
Yang Xuqiu also walked over, picked up the embroidery and looked carefully, "Your handicrafts are very exquisite." She took out a ingot of silver from the cuff, pointed to the handkerchief embroidered by green bamboo and said, "I asked you to buy this."
The old woman picked up the handkerchief: "I won't buy it!"
Bai Ji was instantly angry. Why is this old woman so domineering?
Suddenly, the basket was kicked over, "You are Shi Lin's mother!"
A stern voice followed several thugs, "Shi Lin owed us a year and hasn't paid back the money yet. Who should I ask for this money?"
"Please give me a few more days." The old woman kept bowing and asking for help with both hands.
The man pushed the old woman to the ground and stepped on the embroidery pieces hard. "Gratitude, how long will it take to be graceful! Although you are a little older, it is still worth selling it in a kiln."
After saying this, the thugs behind laughed. The man suddenly grabbed the old woman's long hair and dragged her out of the alley. It seemed that it was not just a saying.
"Lang Xing!"
Lang Xing responded and kicked the man.
The man was angry by Lang Xing and waved his big hand to attack Lang Xing. It has to be said that Lang Xing has made much progress after learning with Cheng Run for several months, and that man cannot gain any advantage in him.
"Brothers!"
Those thugs are not vegetarians, after all, they can't beat four hands with two fists, and Langxing soon fell into a disadvantage.
"Lang Xing, hold him down!"
These people followed the man's leader, and she still understood the principle of capturing the king first.
Lang Xing was ordered and seized the opportunity to hold the man down, with the dagger pressing against his neck. The rest of the people did not dare to act rashly.
"You are sick! What's your business?" The man cursed at Yang Xuqiu.
Yang Xuqiu was not angry when he heard him speak so rudely, and just said, "How much does they owe you?"
"One hundred taels!"
"Nonsense, Lin'er only borrowed you ten taels of silver!" Shi's mother sat up and argued.
"Ten taels are principal. You owe me money for so long, so it's not too much for me to charge some interest."
Such a scoundrel can't argue with him.
Yang Xuqiu glanced at Bai Ji and said, "Give him a hundred taels of silver notes and write a receipt on the carriage to let him sign it." Yang Xuqiu gave orderly.
He paid the money with one hand and made a deposit, "If you come to collect debts again, it would be a disturbance. I am afraid that the government will take care of it."
This was real time, but they heard a threat.
After the group of men left, Yang Xuqiu came forward and helped Shi's mother up.
"I'm sorry girl, I thought you were also the ones who came to Lin'er to help prepare medicine before..."
Shi Lin has some methods, so there are many people who come to him to make drugs, and the price is also expensive, but Shi's mother is unwilling to let him do such a thing that hurts the Yin Dynasty.
"Your clothes are wet, so you might as well go back and change your clothes." Just now, Shi's mother's clothes were stained with mud and snow.
Shi Lin's family is a dilapidated mud house, but it was cleaned very clean by Shi's mother. In winter, thin windows and papers cannot keep the cold. But Shi Lin enjoys it and is immersed in a small house in the west all day long.
Seeing three beautiful girls coming outside, Shi Lin couldn't help but become alert.
"What are you here for?"
Such a good dress should not appear in their poor alleys.
"Sir, don't panic. I have no malice. I just heard that there is a Mr. Shi who has extraordinary medical skills here, so I came to visit him."
Seeing that Shi Lin was talking too thorny, Shi's mother said unhappily: "Miss Yang came for her mother's body. She just paid off the debt for you to avoid being humiliated. Why are you so rude?"
Shi Lin had no father since he was a child. He grew up with his mother and could be said to obey his mother's words.
"What a humiliation! Is Qian Si's group coming again?" If possible, he really wanted to give him a handful of poison and suffer forever.
"It's okay, Miss Yang has already solved it."
"What do you want me to do?" There is no free lunch in the world. Shi Lin knew that the woman who looks like a fairy must have another idea in front of him.
Yang Xuqiu smiled lightly and said, "It's nothing. Mr. Shi only has medical skills, but he can only be stuffy in this small world. Isn't it too much to feel?" She paused and said, "Besides, Mrs. Shi is already old, so it's time to live a few good days."
Shi Lin frowned, "What the hell do you want to do?"
"I just want to ask the gentleman to come out and benefit the people."
"You want me to use it for you?"
Yang Xuqiu shook his head: "No, sir, don't follow me, you will always be a free person."
Retreat as advance, attack as defense, and the more this happens, the more loyal you can be captured.
Shi Lin looked at Shi's mother. It turned out that someone had asked him to be an aide with a lot of money, but he was unwilling to let others hold his life, so he refused them all.
Seeing this, Shi's mother thought for a moment and nodded slowly.
He knew his son's ambitions and current depression. With such an opportunity, she was willing to let Shi Lin make a breakthrough.
