Chapter 9 Seeing Through
The Nangong family's side courtyard was no longer as deserted as before. Nangong Jianyu chose to live with Long Yuxiao. As for Xun'er and Liu Dahou, they naturally lived in the side courtyard.
Qin Huan did not leave the Nangong family. He came to the side courtyard alone, intending to talk to Nangong Jianyu about Brother Lin Xiao. Although the Nangong family is a royal relative, in terms of power, the prime minister today is still better than the Nangong family. After all, the queen is just a harem.
"General Qin came for that matter, right?"
Nangong Jianyu is a smart person. He is actually very grateful to Qin Huan for having this heart, but things have happened. If you want to live in Qingyunzhou, you will have to face it one day.
"The person you hurt is Lin Xiao's brother. I know the cause of the incident, but if you want to live in Qingyunzhou, Lin Xiao will know sooner or later. If he uses the power of the prime minister to arrest you, I am afraid that the Nangong family will not be able to protect you. The only one who can compete with the prime minister today is the eldest princess."
Things in the court and the country were very complicated. Although the royal family ruled the world, they could not rule the power struggle between officials below. Qin Huan was far clearer than Nangong Jianyu.
"I will handle this matter well, thank you General Qin."
Nangong Jianyu understood what Qin Huan meant. If you want to protect yourself and the people around you, you must choose a power position. The eldest princess is the power that Qin Huan chose.
Qin Huan said everything he should say. As for how Nangong Jianyu does it, it is only his business. Qin Huan is willing to come to Nangong Jianyu, and it is his method to be attracted to.
After seeing Qin Huan off, Nangong Jianyu also thought about his words. Qin Huan was right. He didn't think about himself, but also wanted to consider Xun'er and Liu Dahou. He also had the ability to protect himself, but they did not.
After staying in the side hospital, Nangong Jianyu kept thinking about opening a pharmacy in Qingyunzhou. He promised his master to use his medical skills to treat the people, but opening a pharmacy is not that easy. First of all, he must have money.
"Empress Xun, Dahou, you two go to Fuyuan Teahouse with me."
Nangong Jianyu thought about where to get silver. Although he could speak to the main Nangong family, he still wanted to earn the silver with his own ability. After calling on the two of them, he greeted Long Yuxiao and the three of them went out.
In the Fuyuan Teahouse, the cunning old man has been there for several days. Half a month has passed since Nangong Jianyu left the medicine, and the three medicines have been taken by his lady, and it has indeed improved.
"Three guests, please come in!"
As soon as Nangong Jianyu stepped into the Fuyuan Teahouse, the waiter greeted him enthusiastically. When the old man in the teahouse saw Nangong Jianyu, he immediately stood up and trotted to the three of them with a smile on his face.
"Sir, it's so easy to find. I've been waiting for Mr. here for a few days, and finally waited for Mr.
The diners in the teahouse looked at the old man and Nangong Jianyu in surprise. Most people in the teahouse knew that the old man was a cunning person, but why did he be so respectful to a young man and even called him a gentleman.
You should know that the title of sir is not a casual name, let alone such a young man. For a moment, the diners in the teahouse were all Nangong Jianyu's identity and immediately caused a lot of discussion in the teahouse.
"Sir, don't call me that. I promised to see you here, so of course I'm going to come."
At the invitation of the old man, the three and the old man left the teahouse and got on the cunning carriage. The old man's attitude towards the three once again made everyone hotly discuss, and Nangong Jianyu's identity instantly became a hot topic in the teahouse.
"Sir, my lady has indeed improved a lot after taking the prescription from her husband. These days, my shrine keeps asking me to wait for her in the teahouse. Today, I finally waited."
It was the carriage that entered the city at the beginning, but the old man's attitude towards Nangong Jianyu was very different from before, and he did not have the previous disdainful look in his eyes.
Soon the carriage stopped outside the temple. Nangong Jianyu and the other two went directly to the lady's attic under the guidance of the old man. When Chu Hong heard Nangong Jianyu's arrival, he immediately put down the official documents in his hand and looked at the attic with excitement.
"I promised Mr. Ge that you should quickly take Mr. Ge, and that gentleman came to my mansion."
Chu Hong ordered his servants to invite Mr. Ge, but he accelerated his pace to the attic, and a rare smile appeared on his face. He hadn't been so happy for a long time.
"Do you dare to ask if the sir has arrived?"
This time, Chu Hong did not look down on Nangong Jianyu's age. He walked to Nangong Jianyu with a smile on his face, and enthusiastically pulled Nangong Jianyu's hand, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Chu Hong took Nangong Jianyu to the lady's room. When he was bedding, a beautiful woman was lying there, her eyes were closed, her cherry red lips were delicate, and her beautiful face was even more delicate than Xun'er.
"Sir, please let me take my pulse for the lady?"
When Nangong Jianyu saw the woman on the bed, he frowned. He found out from the woman's face that the woman was poisoned, but before he was sure, he could not judge based on guesses.
Nangong Jianyu sat on the head of the woman's bed, pressing her two fingers against the woman's pulse. As the woman's pulse beat, Nangong Jianyu's brows were frowning tighter and tighter. Seeing his expression, Chu Hong's heart was about to fall out. He was really afraid that Nangong Jianyu would say some bad news.
"well...."
Nangong Jianyu sighed. When he stood up, he looked back at the woman on the bed, and then shook his head at Chu Hong. This shaking of his head made Chu Hong's body unable to help but take a few steps back.
"Sir, little girl..."
Chu Hong really didn't dare to say what happened next. He looked at his daughter on the bed with rosy eyes, which showed how much he cared about this daughter. Nangong Jianyu didn't expect that Chu Hong cared about his daughter so much, and didn't know whether he should tell the problem he found.
"Mr. Clerk, if you believe me, then let me treat Ling Qianjin alone. If you don't believe me, I will not cure Ling Qianjin's disease."
As soon as Nangong Jianyu finished speaking, Chu Hong immediately turned around and left, and instructed that no one was allowed to enter the lady's room before Nangong Jianyu came out.
After Chu Hong left, Nangong Jianyu walked slowly to the woman. He held his arms and looked at the woman on the bed. The woman's appearance made him so moved.
"Okay, stop pretending, everyone is gone."
After saying that, Nangong Jianyu sat in front of the bed. When he was taking the woman's pulse, he found that the woman was not sick. He was just showing off Chu Hong. After Chu Hong left, Nangong Jianyu exposed the woman.
"You...how did you know I'm pretending?"
The woman opened her eyes and looked at Nangong Jianyu in surprise. She pretended that she had not even seen through Old Ge, but was discovered by this young man. How could she not be surprised?
"I ask you, have you often drink a purple powder recently?"
It is true that the woman is not sick, but it is also true that the poisoning is true. What puzzled Nangong Jianyu was where the woman got the love pollen. This kind of flower should not appear in the Great Zhou Kingdom.
"Why do you know everything? Who are you?"
The woman changed from surprise to shock. No one in the whole country knew about the powder she drank, but the young man knew about it when he first saw her, and the woman must have been shocked.
"Pity pollen is produced in the small country of Modho. Even in the small country of Modho, this kind of pollen is very rare. You can get this kind of pollen. I am indeed curious, but this kind of pollen will have hallucinations for a period of time after being sucked by people. You should know this?"
Nangong Jianyu's words left the woman speechless because what he said was correct. Seeing that the woman did not speak, Nangong Jianyu was also silent for a while.
"I hope you don't touch the pollen of love again, otherwise your fake madness will become real madness. Now you have been poisoned by the pollen of love. If it is not excreted in time, your life will be threatened. Then your father will really have a white-haired person to send a black-haired person."
Nangong Jianyu could only persuade the woman to die like this, which would be a pity. He didn't want such a person to die without anyone to die.
"Impossible, he...he won't lie to me."
The woman didn't believe what Nangong Jianyu said. She stared at Nangong Jianyu, thinking that Nangong Jianyu was lying to her. The woman didn't believe what Nangong Jianyu said, but she was also afraid that what Nangong Jianyu said was true.
"He? It seems that someone really gives you love pollen. Let me tell you that the poison of love pollen can only be solved by combining the stems and leaves of love flowers, and love pollen will lose its effect if they leave these two."
Nangong Jianyu said everything he could say. As for what the woman should do, he couldn't control it. After he finished speaking, he stood up and prepared to leave. However, Nangong Jianyu would tell Chu Hong about the love of pollen and the one the woman said about him.
The small country of Modho is a vassal state of the Western Wei Kingdom. Since there is a love pollen in Qingyunzhou, it means that the cunning daughter said that he is very likely a person from the Western Wei Kingdom. What does this mean? Nangong Jianyu is very clear.
"Miss Chu, I hope you can carefully consider what I said. This matter is not about you personally. This matter will even cause your Chu family to suffer a catastrophe."
Before leaving, Nangong Jianyu advised the lady of the Chu family. After all, if it involves the entire Chu family, the Chu family has a great influence in the court. If the royal family wants to move the Chu family, the Great Zhou Kingdom will also be subject to fluctuations.
"If you can figure it out, I can help you to get rid of your relationship with this matter and make your Chu family safe and sound. If you figure it out, you will send someone to the Nangong family to find me."
"Wait a minute, are you from the Nangong family?"
The woman was still hesitating at first, but when she heard about the Nangong family, she could not hesitate. If it was an ordinary person, someone might not believe her when she told her, but if the Nangong family said it, it would be different.
"Nangong Jianyu, my name."
After Nangong Jianyu said his name, he ignored Miss Chu's family. He knew that this matter would make the woman agree, but she was still a little afraid now.
"Chu Qingyan, my name is Chu Qingyan..."
