"Mr. Qian is here today, so it is not convenient for me to follow up with Mr. Han. I will come back in a few days when I have time." Shen Tianshu felt confused, got up and said goodbye to Mr. Han.
In the courtyard, Li Zian, Han Changran and Qian Poxin were sitting under the grape trellis in the courtyard, wondering what they were talking about.
Although Li Zian was chatting, his attention was always on the door of the main room, so he saw Shen Tianshu coming out of the room immediately.
He immediately stopped mid-sentence, stood up and went up to him and asked, "Is it done? How is Mr. Han's health?"
"It's much better now. It just needs to be carefully nursed back to health." Shen Tianshu said.
"My father's illness really worries Mrs. Tong." Han Changran was grateful.
The gratitude in his words was genuine, so he said it very sincerely.
Liu Xukun watched from the side, feeling more and more that Qian Poxin was too suspicious. No matter how he looked at it, Han Changran rushed back because of Mr. Han's illness.
Qian Poxin couldn't help but glance at Han Changran, but thought to himself, this man's pretense is really getting better and better.
Li Zian was originally here to pick up Shen Tianshu. Seeing that she was ready to leave, he said directly: "In that case, let's go back."
Han Changran hurriedly followed up and said, "I'll see off the prince and Lady Tong. Mr. Qian, please sit down for a moment. I'll be back soon and we can continue talking."
Qian Poxin came here to test why Han Changran returned to Wuchang Mansion and if there was anything to talk to him about.
He had no need to stay here anymore, so he followed: "I just heard that Mr. Han was sick, so I came here to take a look. Now that I know that Mr. Han is fine, I feel relieved.
"It's rare for Mr. Han to return to his hometown. He should spend time with his family, so I won't continue to bother you.
"As for you and me, if we want to talk, we have plenty of time after we return to Beijing."
Han Changran wanted him to get out of here, so he naturally had no intention of staying as a guest.
So everyone came out of Han's house together.
After Li Zian waited for Shen Tianshu to get on the carriage, he also got on the horse, nodded to the two of them and left straight away.
After sending Li Zian away, Han Changran turned around and exchanged greetings with Qian Poxin: "Thank you, Mr. Qian, for coming to visit my father. It's a pity that my father is in a bad mood due to illness and has been neglectful. I hope Mr. Qian will forgive me."
"Mr. Han, what you said is too foreign. At our age, there are seniors and juniors. No matter who has some minor ailment, our life will be difficult. Don't you think so?"
"What Mr. Qian said is absolutely true, but I still have to thank you for your understanding!"
When Han Changran was chatting with Qian Poxin, Liu Xukun looked at Li Zian's leaving figure and felt a little uneasy.
He insisted on siding with Qian Poxin in front of Li Zian today. He thought that Li Zian might say something to him after he came out, but unexpectedly he left directly.
But before he could think about it further, Qian Poxin finally finished his meaningless nonsense and asked him to get in the car quickly.
"Doctor Liu, it's time for us to leave."
After getting in the car, Qian Poxin immediately asked: "Yiyi Liu, how is Mr. Han's condition?"
He came to visit the patient, and it was already strange that Han Changran refused to let him in because Mr. Han was in a bad mood.
Unexpectedly, I would encounter Mrs. Tong and Li Zian one after another.
It is usually very difficult for these two people to meet each other. How come it is such a coincidence that they are all at the Han family today?
Qian Poxin firmly believed that they were clearly helping Han Changran hide something.
But what exactly are they trying to hide?
At this time, he placed all his hopes on Liu Xukun.
Liu Xukun naturally refused to say that he had never been able to get close to Mr. Han.
He wished that no one else would ever know what happened in the room just now.
So when faced with Qian Poxin's inquiry, he thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Han must have been seriously ill before. I just came in and saw that he was so thin that he was out of shape, and he had no energy."
"Are you really sick?" Qian Poxin didn't believe it, but looking at Liu Xukun's words, he couldn't help but not believe it.
From this point of view, Han Changran's sudden return was really because the old man suddenly fell ill, not because he wanted to inspect?
"Yes, although after Mrs. Tong's treatment, the condition has stabilized now.
“But as the saying goes, illness comes like a mountain falling, and illness goes away like a thread.
"In my opinion, if Mr. Han wants to return to the way he was before he got sick, he will have to recuperate for at least a year and a half, and he has to make sure that he won't get sick again."
As a direct disciple of Jiang Sui, Liu Xukun had good medical skills and was quite famous in the Taiyuan Hospital back then, otherwise he would not have been assigned by the emperor to take care of Concubine Fengrong.
Qian Poxin has heard about this for a long time, but he has never been in contact with it.
During the recent investigation into the case of reincarnation drugs, Qian Poxin saw with his own eyes how Liu Xukun helped people see doctors, and now she still trusts and recognizes his medical skills.
So after hearing what Liu Xukun said, Qian Poxin's suspicions were mostly gone. He nodded and said: "In that case, don't worry about him. The case of reincarnation drugs has just gained some clues. We have to seize the time and continue to dig deeper." That’s it!
"After all, this is a major matter related to whether you can make meritorious service and show your face in front of the Holy Emperor."
"Yes!" Liu Xukun was a little excited when he heard this, and immediately expressed his loyalty, "Everything I do as a low-ranking official depends on Master Qian's orders."
It's no wonder Liu Xukun is so excited. He is already quite old and has been in Wuchang Mansion from the capital for several years.
Although he has always been well respected in Prince Rui's palace, the more time passed, the more uneasy he felt.
The change of power in the palace was already changing. I don’t know how many things changed in one year, not to mention that he left for several years all at once.
At the beginning, he still had contact with other colleagues in the palace from time to time, and he still knew something about the situation in the Tai Hospital.
But the longer he stayed in Prince Rui's Mansion, the less news he could get.
He didn't even know whether his colleagues felt that he was no longer useful, or that they had been sacrificed in the struggle for power.
After all, he is not from Prince Rui's Mansion, so he cannot stay here forever.
Concubine Fengrong was so old and could leave at any time, so he had to go back to Beijing.
Even if he can return to Tai Hospital by then, whether he will still have his own place in Tai Hospital and whether the Holy Emperor will still trust him are all unknown and uncertain.
The appearance of Qian Poxin and the case of the reincarnation drug were like pie in the sky, putting an opportunity to make great achievements in front of him.
As long as this case can be solved successfully, it will be his talisman and credit book, and it will be the confidence that he can return to Tai Hospital in glory at any time.
Therefore, rather than continuing to cling to the big tree of Prince Rui's Mansion to seek a stable life, this is his most urgent need now.
