"Master Jiang, the case is over, are you free to have a few drinks at the Zhuangzi tonight?"
Ning Wuyang shook the mugwort in his hand and pretended to smile profoundly.
"I have good news to share with Mr. Jiang."
good news?
Jiang Yan thought of his encounter with the guards of Prince Jin's Palace the day before yesterday, and looking at Ning Wuyan who was smiling relaxedly at this moment, he could only remind him loudly: "Mr. Ning, Prince Jin's Palace sent people to find Marquis An. He has a... domineering nature and is at odds with you. Everyone in Jinling City knows this. It's best not to go out these days, especially dangerous things like going up the mountain. It would be bad if your feet slip while walking by the river and someone plots against you. ”
Jiang Yan had no doubt that what happened that night was someone deliberately pulling a trick.
He guessed that Zhou An had died in the fire, and he was simply worried that Ning Wuyan would be angered by the people in the Jin Palace.
"Master Jiang's reminder was too late. Someone from Prince Jin's Palace came to me the day before yesterday and said that Zhou An sent a letter home to Prince Jin. It said that if Zhou An dies, it will be me who caused it and he will be buried with him. If that's the case, then the guards of the Jin Palace want to take me back to the capital to confront Zhou An."
Ning Wuyang took the opportunity to apply eye drops to King Jin.
Jiang Yan, who didn't have much favorable impression of Prince Jin's Mansion to begin with, was so angry that he got on his horse after hearing these words.
"Mr. Ning, if this is the case, we will meet again another day. I will definitely tell the governor about this matter, and we will jointly submit a letter to him and refer to the evil guards of the Jin Dynasty, so that the Jin Dynasty can discipline his subordinates! Come on!"
Since he stopped carrying water when doing things, Jiang Yan's straight-forward and bad-tempered nature gradually emerged.
Ning Wuyan left without waiting for the whole story to be explained clearly.
Ning Wuyi was not given a chance to talk nonsense at all.
"I should have told him that Mr. Su knew about this."
Not surprisingly, Su Rui handed the memorial to the old emperor that day.
It is no exaggeration to say that he is now the heart and soul of Su Rui and Jiang Yan, and there is no room for any mistakes.
Of course, being able to have such an important position in the hearts of others depends on his personal efforts and layout.
"Ning Shixian, you ran really well."
Hua Yi's panting voice pulled Ning Wuyan's eyes and thoughts away from Jiang Yan's back.
He threw the Artemisia annua in his hand to Hua Yi.
Hua Yi carefully caught it with both hands, looked at it again and again, and reluctantly pulled off a blade of grass and put it under his nose and smelled it. He felt as if he had smoked a cigarette, full of energy and novelty.
"Is this what Artemisia annua tastes like?"
"Yes, this is Qinghao."
After receiving Ning Wuyan's affirmative assurance, Hua Yi excitedly threw the torn off Artemisia annua leaves into his mouth.
Seeing Hua Yi's actions, Ning Wuhuang grinned, feeling bitter in his mouth.
But when he saw Hua Yi's brows stretched, as if he had lost his sense of taste, chewing carefully, Ning Wuhuang felt a sense of admiration in his heart.
Thanks to self-regardless pioneers and practitioners like Hua Yi in this world, Kampo medicine has room to develop and grow.
"Master Hua, you and I have been climbing the mountain all day today. I think we should rest early and go up the mountain early tomorrow morning. Since we have found Artemisia annua, there is no need to ask the nearby villagers and Taoist priests to help for the time being."
"Is Ning Shixian very tired?"
Hua Yi's anger sank into his dantian, and after a week of internal energy running, the fatigue all over his body was reduced a lot.
Ning Wuchang couldn't stand it as he looked like he wanted to go back now to see the environment of Qinghao Changsheng.
"I'm tired. Mei Xiang, who has taken care of Miss Shen for a day, must be tired too, right, Mei Xiang?"
"yes."
Mei Xiang is very upright.
Except Shen Youchu, don't give face to anyone else.
In addition, it was dinner time and it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky if she wanted her to take people into the mountains.
"Miss Mei Xiang, was it you who discovered the place where Artemisia annua is?"
Hua Yi was quite surprised. He obviously didn't expect that the naive Mei Xiang would be the first person to find the location of Qinghao.
Mei Xiang pointed at Shen Youchu: "The lady found it and asked me to find it. Only I know the specific location."
"As long as Miss Mei Xiang is willing to take me there now, I will make a fortune for you. Whether you are looking for wealth or marriage, I guarantee that I will make it clear to you. I can even tell you what your future lover's surname is." You figure it out!"
Way to make money?
Mei Xiang is not interested in seeking marriage, but she is interested in money.
But then she thought about it, she wanted to make money as long as she was willing to wrong herself or lose her conscience. It was quite simple. If it was an unexpected fortune and Hua Yi broke it, what surprises would there be then?
The beauty of life lies in surprises and accidents, rather than being arranged and calculated.
"I don't count. I'm hungry and just want to eat."
Mei Xiang followed Shen Youchu into Zhuangzi without looking back, carrying a basket full of ostentatious Artemisia annua on her back.
Tu Liu Huayi stood there, wondering if his ability had regressed, and now even a maid didn't believe him.
"Ning Shixian..."
"Master Hua, you'd better give up and go into the mountains in the dark. I heard Miss Mei Xiang say that there is a large area of artemisia in the mountains, the kind that you can't pull out all at once."
Originally, Hua Yi wanted to suppress his curiosity and sacrifice the five internal organs, but when he heard this, he hesitated again.
At this time, Ning Wuhuang offered him another condition that he couldn't refuse.
"Although Miss Mei Xiang won't take you into the mountains, I can help you get the artemisia she pulled out. Then you can cook or dry it, as you wish, okay?"
"Wonderful! So wonderful! I knew Ning Shixian was as obsessed with medicine as I was, hahahaha!"
Ha ha ha ha.
Ning Wuyi thought to himself: I just don't want you to take the risk of going into the mountains. He is not a good doctor. He and I can't even memorize a serious medical book. At most, he can propose some herbal medicines that others have not discovered yet, so that they can be published in advance.
correct.
It's not enough to find the artemisia annua. You have to extract artemisinin to treat dysentery. This workload is much heavier than finding artemisia annua seedlings.
I hope Huayi can persist until the day of victory.
"Whatever dish Master Hua wants to eat, I'll ask the kitchen to cook it."
"Chicken stewed with mushrooms. I happened to pick some mushrooms in the mountains."
Ning Wuyan looked at Hua Yi who conjured a handful of mushrooms from nowhere, and suddenly felt that his worries were unnecessary.
This old man really knows how to enjoy himself while doing business.
…
At the beginning of the lanterns, after the carjacking case outside the city in Lai'an County was solved, the streets were decorated with lights and colorful decorations. Although there were patrolling officers and soldiers from time to time to maintain law and order, the people were not worried that they would suddenly rush up to question the three generations of their ancestors. Everything returned to normal life before. level.
In the county government office, Jiachu, who had been in Lai'an County for a day and two nights, with two dark circles under his eyes, faced Magistrate An who had rushed back from the county's villages and towns, took out his badge and asked unceremoniously: "Magistrate An , there was such a big case in Lai'an City, but you were not on standby in the city, but instead went to watch the villages and towns in the lower county to collect grain? Do you know how much my business was delayed because you were not in the city? "
On his own, he was running around like a headless fly in Lai'an County, a place he was unfamiliar with, getting half the result with half the effort.
I did find out what the carjacking case was like that night, but if Jiachu wanted to investigate thoroughly, he had to ask the government for help.
The magistrate An who came to An County was attached to his own prince. When he was away at this critical moment, Jiachu always felt that there was something fishy about it.
Faced with Jiachu's unknown anger, Magistrate An suddenly disappeared when he saw the waist badge of Prince Ru Jin, and even took the initiative to pour a cup of herbal tea for Jiachu to calm him down.
"What do you call this little brother?"
"Just call me Xiaojia."
"Guard A, I'm not in the city just because I'm lazy and want to avoid such a meritorious case. The county magistrate's registrar issued the fire-fighting order on my behalf, but he gets the credit. I'm also aggrieved, but I can't help it. Everything was done by the little Marquis who asked me to do this.”
