Meng Zhuoer's back felt cold, goosebumps were rising, and his mouth felt dry: "Can you please be reasonable? You have a chronic poison that even an imperial doctor can't cure. How can you expect me to see you two or three times and you will be completely healed?" Already?
You have been poisoned for at least ten years. It is not something that can be solved overnight. If it were easy to solve, you would not delay it until now. "
"But you said you could cure it." The man's eyes were like a beast dormant in the dark, with a strong sense of oppression.
"Did you just listen to what I said about whether it can be cured? Ask yourself, do you feel that your body is much better than before? At least you won't have your blood boiling all the time, and the poisonous energy will attack your heart after just a little exercise, right?"
Meng Zhuoer hit the nail on the head, and the man paused and let go of his hand.
Meng Zhuoer breathed a sigh of relief, stroking his collar carelessly and said: "Actually, I can solve it now, but now I am missing some medicine.
My master once said that there is a kind of golden lotus called Qiqiao Golden Lotus, which is a magical medicine that grows on cliffs. However, this medicine is extremely rare and difficult to find. Even famous doctors have never heard of it. "
Yue Zhiting frowned: "Since no one else has heard of it, how did your master know about it? Are you talking nonsense?"
I went and was right.
Meng Zhuoer's face remained unchanged and she calmly said: "My master is a miracle doctor. How can you compare with those cats and dogs outside? Just look at me and you will know that at such a young age I can compare with the imperial doctors in the palace. Doesn't that explain the problem?"
She continued to make up, "If I can find Golden Lotus with seven orifices as a medicine, it will definitely detoxify you. Now that I can't find it, I can only find another way. But don't worry, the medicine I'm prescribing for you now can detoxify you." The suppression has a very good effect.
And to a certain extent, it can also weaken the poison in your body. "
Yue Zhiting's eyes flickered on and off, very aggressive, making people shudder.
"Is it the Golden Lotus with Seven Apertures?" He looked away calmly, "I will send an order and let people find it."
Meng Zhuoer pursed her lips and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
"Here, I have one more thing to ask of you."
Yue Zhiting: "..."
She is also a connotation person, and only when she asks for something, will she remember that she still calls herself a 'court daughter'.
"explain."
Meng Zhuoer chuckled and rubbed his hands together: "That's right. I'm a timid and cautious person and I don't know any big people. The most powerful person I know is you. I was wondering if you could find some medical books for me.
It is best to read the Compendium of Medicine, which introduces various herbal medicines, or medical records. I want to add more knowledge and see if there is anything that can replace Golden Lotus. This will also be beneficial to your condition.
Otherwise, it would be too passive to just stick to the herbal medicine. Maybe you will find some other herbs and find a substitute. "
Yue Zhiting listened and glanced sideways at her: "Young master, don't think that I don't know what you have in mind. Helping me is an excuse, but you really want to enrich your knowledge reserve."
Meng Zhuoer's plan was exposed, he curled his lips and accepted his fate.
The carriage stopped in the alley around the corner from Meng Guogong's mansion, and Meng Zhuoer was thrown off.
"Cheapskate."
Meng Zhuoer raised his fist towards the car.
After returning to the mansion, Meng Zhuoer asked the housekeeper to find some medical books for him, which could supplement some knowledge about herbal medicine of this era.
But the matter of finding a guard has never been completed.
Contemporary women are either sold into slavery or sent to the Jiaofang Department, and rarely receive training, let alone martial arts training. The younger you start training, the better your martial arts foundation.
The reputation of a daughter-in-law from a famous family is very important. Even if she is looking for a bodyguard, she must be a female bodyguard.
After such a selection, there were very few female guards available, and Meng Zhuoer did not want anyone who was not skilled in martial arts.
For five days in a row, Meng Zhuoer was immersed in the ocean of knowledge, reading books every day until his head was spinning.
The case is a very common case. Many modern books introducing medicinal herbs have recorded them, and they are common medicinal herbs.
But Meng Zhuoer had been to Tai Hospital before. There were many high-end medicinal materials in Tai Hospital that she had never seen before, but it was estimated that ordinary people had no money to buy them, so many medical books did not record them.
Xiang Lian came in with lunch in her hands, "Miss, you've been here all day, please have something to eat."
Meng Zhuoer stretched out, held the bowl and ate while looking at it, and asked: "By the way, I asked you to ask the housekeeper about the matter of finding Grandma Xi, how is it going? Is it settled?"
Xiang Lian didn't know what to think and didn't react for a while.
Meng Zhuoer stared at her.
"Oh...are you talking about teaching Aunt Xi? This servant went to urge the housekeeper this morning. The housekeeper said that it is difficult to find Aunt Xi now. If the Duke of Guo didn't find the nun in the palace, he wouldn't be able to invite her. There is no shortage of money for the nuns who are teaching, so they have to return home. Most of the ones who stay in Beijing are people with qualifications and connections, so it is even harder to hire them.
The housekeeper had found several of them before, but none of them seemed very good to the slaves. "
"Teaching Auntie Xi, we need to look for it seriously. We can't find someone who is half-hearted. It is a serious crime to commit a crime in the palace. Human life is not worth anything. If you are caught in the wrong place, you will suffer."
Meng Zhuoer sighed.
"It would be great if the Duke of the Kingdom is at home. I heard that there is a nanny who is very powerful. She even taught the late Queen Empress etiquette. Concubine Chu was also trained by her, and she was one of the few female officials.
That grandma has a wide network of contacts and has contacts with the concubines in the harem and the officials in the capital. Even if she is now retired, she can be considered a powerful person, and I am afraid that even the Duke of our country may not be able to invite her. "
Meng Zhuoer also knows how important it is to have a good teacher, who is hard to come by.
Meng Zhuoer finished eating quickly, and she asked Xianglian to put away the dishes, but Xianglian was stunned again, with three souls and seven souls missing.
Meng Zhuoer called her several more times, and then Xianglian responded and looked at Meng Zhuoer stupidly: "Ah? Do you want to eat more?"
"I asked you to clean up the dishes..."
Meng Zhuoer narrowed his eyes and looked at her up and down, "Xianlian, you are usually very neat and capable. Why are you acting so stupid now? Did something happen?"
"No, no... nothing happened."
Karen quickly denied it, but her stammering look meant that something was obviously going on.
Meng Zhuoer frowned: "What happened?"
"Really not... Miss, please read the book first, I won't disturb you anymore..."
As she said this, Karen was about to go down.
Meng Zhuoer stopped her with a solemn expression: "I don't like lies...so, please tell the truth."
Xiang Lian froze before saying, "Miss, actually... something happened to Miss Lu."
"What?"
Xiang Lian then told her.
It turned out that since leaving the palace that day, the news about Lu Luochun being stripped of his clothes had spread.
At first, it was just a rumor that Lu Luochun was bullied and had his clothes stripped in front of everyone. Later, the rumors went too far, and it was even said that Lu Luochun was sleeping around with others in the palace and was bumped into.
Nowadays, people outside are saying that Lu Luochun has been ruined and is already a spent flower.
Lu Luochun is already fourteen this year. Girls at this age usually start discussing marriage, and they can go to the church to get married when they have hair extensions.
But as soon as the rumor came out, many families shunned the Lu family, and no one dared to have such a girl.
"There are rumors outside now. When I went out to buy breakfast for you today, I heard that Master Lu and Miss Lu Luochun were summoned by His Majesty. After all, this matter happened in the palace, so they will probably be punished."
Meng Zhuoer stood up suddenly: "How could this happen?"
Not to mention that the story of being raped was completely untrue, and the place where it happened was so remote that no one from the palace passed by at the time...
Someone must have deliberately provoked it.
Could it be Jin Yumi or Yao Hongwen?
But what they were doing to Lu Luochun, even if they wanted to vent their anger on someone, they should be targeting her.
When Meng Zhuoer was worried, the guard at the door suddenly came and said that someone wanted to see him.
