Chapter 124 Anomaly Found
"When you have time, please ask Envoy Jiang to give me some advice!"
Helian Chen's speaking attitude seemed quite sincere.
"Your Highness, you flatter me. I just happened to learn a few poems. I can't say I can give you any advice."
"No matter what, I want to discuss poetry and lyrics with you! By the way, there is a suitable opportunity recently. I wonder if Envoy Jiang still remembers my cousin?"
"Your Highness, are you talking about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
"It's him. After drinking the medicine you prescribed, he has almost completely recovered his memory. My uncle wants to hold a banquet to thank him. I wonder when Envoy Jiang will be free?"
"As long as His Royal Highness is well again, there is no need to trouble the Marquis."
"How can this be possible? My uncle specifically told me to make an appointment with you. Envoy Jiang, even if you don't give me face, you should at least give my uncle some face, right? What do you think?"
"The clinic has not been open recently because it was busy the past few days. Your Highness and the Marquis will decide the time. I should be able to go anytime."
"That's fine. Let me think about it. I don't have anything to do the day after tomorrow. Why don't we schedule it for noon the day after tomorrow? Then, I will send someone to pick up the envoy in advance."
"I have no objection. Your Highness will make all the arrangements."
Helian Chen had clearly finished talking about the important matter, but he didn't seem to be leaving.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally spoke tentatively.
"Envoy Jiang, do you know how my third brother is doing recently?"
"His Royal Highness the Third Prince? I don't know. I haven't seen His Royal Highness for some time."
"Really? I thought my third brother was just avoiding us brothers, but I didn't expect that he hasn't even seen Envoy Jiang?"
"But then again, today's chrysanthemum appreciation meeting was specially prepared by Concubine Xian for my third brother. I didn't expect that he didn't show up."
Facing Feiying's slightly puzzled gaze, Helian Chen explained further.
"Among the three of us brothers, he is the only one who has not married yet, and he has not even taken a concubine. I think it is for this reason that the Imperial Concubine Xian specially organized today's chrysanthemum appreciation meeting. I think the competition of poetry and prose is fake, and the real purpose is to take this opportunity to choose a prince's consort for my third brother."
"Tsk tsk, but the glory of today's chrysanthemum appreciation meeting was snatched away by the court envoys. I wonder which noble lady my father and Imperial Concubine Xian chose as my third brother's principal wife in the end."
As Helian Chen spoke, he took the opportunity to observe Feiying's expression and found that no matter what he said, her expression remained calm and there was no change.
What’s going on? Isn’t she the third brother’s woman?
How come you are so calm when you hear that you are going to find a wife for your third brother?
Isn't this right?
Or is it that she is confident that her third brother will not be taken away by anyone and is not afraid of any competition?
No wonder she performed so high-profile at the chrysanthemum appreciation conference today. Was it just to prove her strength to everyone and let everyone come and challenge her?
It seems that it is not an easy task to win her over from the side of the third brother.
But the stronger she was, the harder he had to try to win her over.
This kind of talent must not be allowed to stay with my third brother, otherwise he will definitely be a hidden danger in the future.
"Forget it, I won't say any more. Everything is decided by my father. It's getting late, so I'll leave first."
"Farewell to Your Highness."
After he left, Feiying locked the door. As she walked towards the backyard, she recalled what Helian Chen had just mentioned about Helian Peng, and she couldn't help but calculate with her hands.
This calculation was not a big deal, it made her sneer out loud.
"Sister, what's wrong with you? Why are you laughing out of nowhere?"
"It's Xiaoyu, it's okay, have you had dinner?"
"No, I'm waiting for my sister to come with me."
"Is that so? Let's go eat. You must be hungry after a busy day."
Feiying and Li Chengrui came to the backyard to have dinner together.
There was no need to worry about Helian Peng's safety. Since he left the clinic that day, he had listened to Feiying's words and saw that she was willing to give up her rest time to save the people. He was stimulated and spent most of his time in the mansion, working hard and diligently, and that's why he hadn't shown up.
Around noon the next day, Helian Chen sent a carriage to pick up Feiying.
The carriage drove out of the imperial city and arrived at a manor with mountains and water.
Pingle Hou Yuwensu and others were already waiting for her there.
Yuwen Hao already knew that Feiying was the person who saved him, so after she got off the carriage and walked into the manor, he took the initiative to greet her.
"Benefactor, you are finally here!"
"Your humble servant pays respect to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"You are welcome, benefactor. You have worked so hard on this journey. Please come in and have a cup of tea!"
Yuwen Su also came up at this time: "Divine Doctor Jiang, my son is saved thanks to you. If it weren't for the miraculous doctor's healing, Hao'er would have remained stupid for who knows how long."
"Before, I was worried that if I never had the chance to take care of Hao'er again, how would he live in this world alone? Now, I can finally rest assured."
"Let's not talk about this anymore, it's all over, please call the miracle doctor!"
Feiying was invited in by them, and then Yuwen Su gave her a warm welcome.
Finally, he gave her ten thousand taels of silver as a thank you for saving Yuwen Hao.
Feiying was sent back to Yinghuatang by Helian Chen. Yuwenhao's affairs came to an end and life returned to normal.
Apart from being called into the palace from time to time to diagnose people in the palace, Feiying has always been sitting in Yinghua Hall to see patients.
But it's weird, very strange.
Feiying unconsciously observed the situation in the museum over the past few days and always felt that something was wrong.
"Sister Zhu'er, you are mainly responsible for managing the medicinal herbs. Have the customers who have seen the doctor's prescription come to you to get the medicine these days?"
Xu Zhu responded truthfully: "It seems to be the case. The number of herbs sold every day these days is much less than before."
Feiying looked at Li Chengrui again and said, "Xiaoyu, bring me the account books for this period of time."
"Yes, sister, it's for you."
After Feiying looked through the account book, she found that all the people who came to see the doctor in the past few days had only paid one or two taels of silver as consultation fees, and there was no other income.
what happened?
The original consultation process at Yinghuatang was to first come for consultation, get a prescription, then go to get the medicine, and finally pay the fee.
But now the process only ends with getting the prescription and paying the money?
The truth behind it seems so complicated that it would be difficult for ordinary people to find out even if they racked their brains.
But for her, the creator god, it was a piece of cake.
She calculated with one hand and sneered: "Oh, so that's how it is."
"What's wrong sister?"
"It's okay, Xiaoyu, please help and call Chuanzi, Afu and the others over."
"Yes."
When everyone was having lunch together at noon, Hu Chuan started talking to Feiying while eating.
"It's time to go to Hulu Village to buy medicinal herbs. There aren't many herbal seeds left from the last time the boss gave us. I'm afraid they won't be enough for the villagers to grow."
Feiying took a sip of soup and said, "Don't worry. I got a large batch of seeds recently. I put them in the new courtyard I rented specifically for storing seeds. Just move them before you leave. By then, there will be ten gourd villages. If they plant seeds every day, it will be enough for them to grow seeds for ten years."
