Chapter 201
The old Duke fell into a coma after being poisoned by a poisoned arrow at the border. After being sent back to Beijing, the emperor immediately asked the hospital director to bring someone over to treat him. Unfortunately, the hospital was still helpless against the poison on the old Duke.

The emperor was furious, scolded Yuan Zheng, and then sent all the imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion for consultation.However, no matter whether it was the imperial physician or the doctors invited from other medical clinics in Kyoto, after a few days of arguing, they still couldn't make a move.

The entire Zhen Guogong's mansion was plunged into a gloomy mist, from the master down to the maids and servants, there was no smile on everyone's face.

Mrs. Tai asked the second master, the third master and others to take turns to serve the sick, and the head of Chang'an County and several wives also came to help every day.Several masters discussed with Mrs. Tai, and decided to post a notice to find good doctors for the old man.

Xiao Jinyue remained calm about this, and when it was her and Lu Chengting's turn to attend to the old man's illness, he dismissed the people guarding the old man, and then secretly felt his pulse.

The poison on the old man's body was also very troublesome. Fortunately, Xiao Jinyue made medicine with Lingquan water, sent Nanyan to the border, and secretly fed it to the old man, which saved his life.

Xiao Jinyue felt the pulse, returned to Shi'an Garden and began to prepare the detoxification pill.

It took three days to prepare the pill, and then secretly gave it to the old man.

Mrs. Tai saw that the old man had been in a coma, so she decided to take the family members of the mansion to burn incense and worship Buddha at Ciguang Temple.

Except for Mrs. Tai, the three wives and the girls from all the prefectures, no matter if they are descendants of concubine or concubine, all have to go.Xiao Jinyue, as the eldest concubine of the Duke's Mansion, naturally has to follow.

Everyone arrived at Ciguang Temple in a carriage, worshiped all the Bodhisattvas in each hall, donated a large amount of sesame oil money, and then returned home.

Since the old man returned to the mansion, although Lu Chengting still pretended to be inconvenient in front of outsiders, every time he returned to Shi'an Garden from the old man's courtyard, he secretly went out with his guards.

Xiao Jinyue didn't know what he was busy with outside, but every time he came back from outside, his face became uglier every day.

Originally, Xiao Jinyue didn't plan to inquire about him, after all, the poison on Lu Chengting's body was gradually getting better, and sooner or later, she would leave the Zhen Guogong's mansion.

During dinner that day, Xiao Jinyue saw that he came back earlier than usual.

After the two ate their meal in silence, Lu Chengting left her to talk.

It turned out that he left early and returned late recently because when the dark guard went to the border to pick up the old Duke, he found out that the poisoning of the old Duke was probably caused by spies in the army.

The hidden guards also found out that the generals at the border seemed to have different intentions, and there were unusual transfers in the army.

Recently, Lu Chengting secretly left early and returned late, just to find out what's going on in the army.

It's just that the military power in his hands has been handed over to the emperor. With his current status, some things are not easy to inquire about.

Lu Chengting speculated that there might be changes in the court recently, and he told Xiao Jinyue that if he went out, he must bring enough people to ensure his own safety.

After hearing Lu Chengting's words, Xiao Jinyue was worried that there would be another war, so she went back to her mother's house, discussed with her elder brother Xiao Haoqing, and handed over all the money she could use to Xiao Haoqing.

Let him privately send people to other state capitals to buy as much food as possible and store them up. Xiao Jinyue also copied the weapon-making method given to Lu Chengting and gave it to his elder brother, asking him to find a way to make as many weapons as possible.

Although they have no intention of rebelling, this is not an era of peace, and wars may break out at any time.For the safety of her family, what Xiao Jinyue can do is to do her best and prepare for the worst.

Xiao Jinyue wrote down the formula for making sugar and the method of making paper, and asked Xiao Haoqing to send someone to send it to the second manager in Fujian Province as soon as possible.

She explained in the letter that she asked the second steward to sell the formula to merchants from Fanbang as soon as possible. It is best to sell it to several different countries, and use the money obtained to quietly buy a large amount of medicinal materials and grains in the south.

On the second day after returning from the Xiao Mansion, Song Chuyao, the daughter-in-law of the Ningguo Mansion, brought a doctor to the Zhen Guo Mansion.

I heard that the doctor is a well-known miracle doctor among the people, especially good at treating all kinds of weird viruses.

This genius doctor is very famous, and he often sees the beginning but never ends. Song Chuyao also spent a lot of energy this time and sent a lot of people to invite him here.

Mrs. Tai brought several wives to receive her. Facing Song Chuyao, who was beautiful, soft-spoken, and well-mannered, everyone from Mrs. Tai to the maidservant was full of praise.

Even Xiao Jinyue felt that this Song Chuyao was worthy of being a famous lady in Beijing, no matter how she looked at it, she was outstanding.She even wondered if this was Lu Chengting's sweetheart.

After all, Lu Chengting and this Song Chuyao are a very good match. Judging from their appearance, they are a very good couple.

The miracle doctor she brought should also have a lot of skills.

It's just that all the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital are helpless against the old man's virus, and this genius doctor may not be able to do anything.

After all, with Xiao Jinyue's medical skills, if she hadn't used various instruments in the space to test the poison on the old Duke's body, she probably wouldn't have known how long it would take to prepare the detoxification pill.

Xiao Jinyue's guess was correct. After the doctor examined the old man, he shook his head and expressed that he was helpless.

Everyone in the Duke of Zhen's mansion showed disappointment. At this moment, after Lu Chengting came back from the outside, he was carried by the guards on a seat to visit the old Duke.

To everyone's surprise, when he saw Prince Zhen Guo, the genius doctor offered to take his pulse. He said that it was the old Duke's poison. Let's see if it can cure the poison on his body.

But Lu Chengting politely refused, and the people in Zhen Guogong's mansion didn't say anything, but that Song Chuyao persuaded him softly, but Lu Chengting still refused.

Xiao Jinyue was full of surprises about this.

She was originally curious about whether Song Chuyao was Lu Chengting's sweetheart, so she secretly observed her a lot.She found that when Lu Chengting came in, Miss Song winked at the genius doctor, and the genius doctor said that he would help Lu Chengting feel his pulse.

But what Xiao Jinyue didn't expect was that Lu Chengting refused. She also saw that the light in Song Chuyao's eyes dimmed, but there was no change on her face.

Xiao Jinyue murmured in her heart, did she guess wrong, Song Chuyao is not his sweetheart?

I don't know if Lu Chengting is worried that he hasn't reconciled with her yet, so he won't be able to get in touch with Miss Song in front of others, or because he is afraid that the genius doctor will find out that his legs have recovered.

A few days after Song Chuyao left, a major event happened in the court.

The eldest prince born of Concubine Zhao had a dispute or even fight with the second prince born to the empress, and the eldest prince killed the second prince by mistake.
