Chapter 93 Drunken Old Man (1)

  Remember "Bookworm" in one second.

  The people around him are not blind, and soon they notice something is wrong.

  Some bold ones intentionally spoke loudly to themselves: "To set up such a big formation, it turns out that it's just for a servant. I really don't know which young lady from the mansion is so 'kind-hearted'."

  "What a kind heart! The intention of getting drunk is not in the wine!" Someone hiding in the corner shouted: "Isn't it just an excuse to see Wei Taimei under the pretext of treating illness?"

  As soon as this was said, some people immediately began pointing and whispering to each other.

  The girl in pink was looked at and talked about by the crowd, feeling a bit shy and uncomfortable. Although she knew that people couldn't see her face clearly through the veil, she still lowered her head.

  A middle-aged woman standing beside her immediately stepped forward, her fierce gaze sweeping around: "Who was it that just spoke out of turn and dared to speak ill of our young lady? Our young lady has a Bodhisattva's heart, can't bear to see the suffering of others, and specially brought Liu Laoshi who had an acute illness to seek medical treatment. Whoever dares to wag their tongue, watch me tear their mouth apart!"

  A very cruel and ruthless woman.

  The surrounding gossip and rumors indeed decreased a lot.

  Ling Jingxu also understood at this time and couldn't help but secretly laugh.

  It turns out that the intention of Zui Yun is not in wine!

  Jiang also chuckled and whispered to Ling Jingxian, "I've seen this young lady a couple of times before, I have some impression. Her surname is Liu, she's the third child in her family. Her father is Liu Yu Shi from the Supervisory Board."

  There are fifteen officials in the Control Yuan.

  The rank of the Supervising Censor is not high, only a seventh-grade official position, but his authority is very broad. For civil and military officials, the Supervising Censor has the responsibility to investigate and report to the emperor, and can capture rumors and report them as soon as they hear them. According to the usual practice of the imperial court, officials who were impeached by the censor in a memorial to the throne were not allowed to submit a memorial to defend themselves, but could only wait for the emperor's decision.

  This official position is typically low in rank but high in power. Even the officials of the Six Ministries and the nobles of the Great Zhou Dynasty often secretly get along with the Supervising Censors, lest they accidentally receive an additional impeachment memorial against themselves. This also shows the prestige of the Supervising Censors.

  Chiang's few words made it clear how important the duties of the supervising censor were.

  Ling Jingxuan nodded lightly, understanding in her heart.

  Miss Liu has a crush on Wei Taizhen and usually has no chance to get close to him. She came up with this trick to get close to Wei Taizhen. It's quite brave of her.

  Judging from the tone of that middle-aged woman, Wei Taiyi had a habit of treating those on the verge of death first. It seemed that Ah Xiao would have to wait a bit longer.

  ......

  A steady and powerful footstep sounded beside his ear.

  Ling Jingxu raised her head and saw a young man's face with a strong and resolute expression.

  It is Hui Chun Tang's general manager Han Yi!

  Han Yi stood at the entrance of Hui Chun Tang and glanced around. He roughly guessed what was going on.

  Huisheng Tang's reputation is loud and clear, and Weidaifu's title of divine doctor is even more renowned. Especially among the ladies in the inner chambers, it is often mentioned. The reason is obvious, because Weidaifu is young and has never been close to women, he remains unmarried. He is also a rare beauty...

  The identity of the Crown Prince Yan Wang is too noble, and many ladies-in-waiting have the self-awareness not to have excessive expectations. Wei Taizhen is different. His medical skills are outstanding, and he has a high imperial favor, his status is high but not unattainable. Moreover, he is born with unparalleled beauty, elegant and refined, with an excellent reputation.

  He is simply the most ideal husband candidate in a girl's heart.

  And so, on the first and fifteenth of every month, Huichuntang always has some strange patients and "family members" showing up.

  That middle-aged woman saw Han Yi show his face, and immediately rushed forward: "Han Guan Shang. Liu Lao Shi is a servant of our Liu Fu. From early morning on, he has been spitting white foam and convulsing all over, and it looks like he won't make it soon. If Doctor Wei comes, please ask Doctor Wei to diagnose and treat him first."

  He was afraid that Han Yi would refuse, and immediately added a sentence: "This is also the rule set by Wei Taifu. If there is a dying person, he must be treated first. Liu Laoshi is just a servant, but it's also a life!"

  This "life" is indeed on its last breath.

  A middle-aged woman's words sound pleasant to hear, but her face shows no signs of anxiety.

  Han Yi's eyes flashed with a hint of mockery. He said lightly: "I'll have someone bring the patient into the back hall right away."

  Having said that, he turned back and ordered, and immediately two capable partners carried the trembling Liu Laoshi into the house.

  The middle-aged woman's eyes flashed with a hint of joy. She immediately supported Liu San Miss and also wanted to go in.

  Han Yi calmly intercepted a group of people: "The patient has been taken in, you wait for news here, no need to go in."

  Miss Liu San: “......”

  The middle-aged woman was taken aback at first, then said angrily: "What kind of reason is that? We have to go in and take a look before we can feel at ease."

  Han Yi replied politely, "Doctor Wei treats patients. He never allows idle people to get close. If you don't want to wait, you can leave first and have someone come back to pick up the patient in the evening."

  The middle-aged woman was choked and speechless with wide eyes.

  Some of them had already started snickering in low voices.

  ......

  Ling Jingxu's lips also slightly curled up.

  This Han Yi has a demeanor that is somewhat like that of a young master from a noble family, and also seems to have some martial skills. Yet, someone like him is willing to be the manager of Hui Chun Tang.

  Forget it. This is not the time to think about these things.

  Ling Jingyu's eyes were fixed on him, and she opened her mouth to say: "Hàn Guǎnshì, we came here a few days ago and remembered your name. Do you have any impression?"

  Han Yi looked over: "Of course I remember. Please come in."

  Ling Jingxu nodded with a smile and pulled Ling Xiao's hand into the room together.

  "Wait!"

  Miss Liu, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up. Her voice was clear and tender, quite pleasant to the ear: "Just now, Manager Han said that patients can enter, while others have to wait outside Huichuntang. What makes you an exception?"

  Her gaze was separated by a thin gauze, staring straight at Ling Jingxu, as if to see her appearance clearly.

  Unfortunately, both of them were wearing veils, and even the sharpest eyes couldn't penetrate through two layers of gauze.

  Ling Jingxian detected a hint of hostility in Miss Liu's tone and couldn't help but secretly smile. This Miss Liu had obviously misunderstood, thinking she was another "Drunken Old Man".

  "This young lady, the one who came to see the doctor is my twin brother." Ling Jingyu didn't want to argue with a lovesick girl, so she explained gently: "He can't see and has trouble walking, of course I have to accompany him in."

  A soft and elegant girl's voice, like a gentle stream, quietly flowing into people's hearts.

  What a delightful and pleasant sound! The appearance under the thin gauze is unknown how beautiful it is!

  Everyone thought the same thing without prior agreement.

  Miss Liu's eyes flashed with a hint of jealousy, and she said lightly: "The servants in my family are still carried in while lying down. How can I be more at ease?"
