Quickly wear a life of peace

Chapter 32 Ancient Female Doctor 16

Mrs. Wang cares so much about Yunxiang that even she herself probably wouldn't believe that there was nothing wrong, let alone Zhou, who has worked in the backyard of a wealthy family for many years.

So this person is a trouble, it is better to get rid of him if you can. There are thousands of poor people in this world, how can the small Zheng family take care of them all.

After thinking about it, Zhou made up her mind. "It is indeed a good child, but you also know that I just want to find two people who can serve my daughter personally. Our family is a small one and can't afford to support too many people."

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang felt embarrassed. This was a bit unfair, but it was an order from the master, so she was in a dilemma. Fushan County was so small, and there were not many families who could afford to hire kind people. The Zheng family was the most suitable one.

Thinking it was better to try harder, "Madam, don't blame me. Yunxiang and her daughter are indeed capable. I brought them here for you to see, knowing that your family is not short of people who can serve you. Your son is getting married, and your daughter is about to get married, so you must have many children and grandchildren.

Yunxiang is not only good at making pastries, but she is also good at taking care of pregnant women and helping them during the confinement period. I brought this to you because I thought you could use it."

Now, let alone Zhou and Zheng Yunshu, even Gao Lan could hear something was wrong.

Zhou didn't want to flatter Wang Po and said sternly, "You are wrong. My family needs a doctor. My son-in-law is a doctor. We really don't need him. You should ask someone else!"

As he said this, he wanted to send the guests away, and even rejected the two maids he had chosen for Zheng Yunshu.

Mrs. Wang knew that she was in the wrong, so she didn't dare to say anything more. She led her people away with a wry smile, and no one knew what she was complaining about in her heart.

Cai Lian and Cai He asked Xiao Fu and Xiao Gui to take them away. The mother and son, the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law frowned and thought. They always felt that something was wrong, but they couldn't figure it out.

The three of them discussed for a long time without any clue, so Zhou asked the two to go back to their room first. She went to the front yard and found Zheng Xingrong and Zheng Changqing, asking them to check and see if they could find out anything.

As for Mrs. Wang, she had not accomplished her task, so she had to go to the master's house to report the incident. However, the master ignored her and just said "I know" and let her go, which made Mrs. Wang very anxious.

The Zheng family didn't find out the details, but it was time for Gao Lan to return home. The young couple happily returned home with a car full of gifts and Xiao Fu and Xiao Gui.

As soon as they left, Zhuang Rui came to Zheng's house. He came here often. The doorman knew that he was the future son-in-law, so he didn't stop him and led him to the front yard.

"What? You said your identity has been discovered." Zheng Xingrong stood up in shock, even knocking over the teacup next to him, making a bang but he ignored it.

Zhuang Rui quickly comforted him, "Grandfather, don't worry, that man is not an enemy."

As he spoke, he quickly walked over to support Zheng Xingrong and said, "This man is a subordinate of the Fifth Prince. When the Fifth Prince was not favored, he received favor from my grandfather. He will not embarrass me."

How could Zheng Xingrong be relieved? He grabbed Zhuang Rui's arm and asked, "Tell me what happened?"

Zhuang Rui did not waste time, fearing that Zheng Xingrong would get anxious, so he quickly explained to him.

It turned out that the coastline of Haiqu City was attacked by pirates some time ago, so the emperor sent the fifth prince to check it out.

Zhuang Rui happened to go to a village close to the coast to see a doctor. The Fifth Prince's staff noticed that he was similar to the late Imperial Physician Zhuang, so they paid some attention to him. After confirming his identity, they reported it to the Fifth Prince.

The Fifth Prince still remembered the kindness of Imperial Physician Zhuang and trusted his medical skills. He guessed that Zhuang Rui was in trouble, so he wanted to take Zhuang Rui back to the capital to protect him.

Unexpectedly, Zhuang Rui no longer wanted to get involved in the gossip in the imperial city, but he was concerned about the Zheng family and his fiancée, so he rejected him.

The Fifth Prince did not say anything at that time. He just asked him to think about it again and then let him go back.

The Yunxiang sent by the human broker the day before yesterday was meant by the Fifth Prince’s aide. He believed that if he arranged for someone to take good care of the Zheng family, Zhuang Rui would be able to follow them back to the capital.

After learning that the Zheng family did not accept the person, they told the matter to the Fifth Prince. The Fifth Prince felt that the Zheng family was quite smart, but also felt that the people under their command were incompetent.

He sent a message to Zhuang Rui, asking him to bring the Zheng family to Beijing with him, and that he would provide support to the Zheng family in the future.

After Zhuang Rui learned the news, he hurried to the Zheng family to explain the situation.

After Zheng Xingrong knew the whole story, he sat there frowning in deep thought. After a while, he asked Zhuang Rui, "Did your grandfather leave you any words about the princes? The fight for the throne is no joke. If you are not careful, your family will be confiscated and your clan will be exterminated. Does the fifth prince want to fight for it?"

Zhuang Rui did not dare to be careless and quickly told him the information he remembered in the past two days.

The eldest prince's mother's family had long been in decline, and it was the current emperor who took action personally. Minister Zheng's family was also implicated at that time. Moreover, the eldest prince had a stubborn personality and had already been abandoned by the emperor.

The second prince is the son of Concubine Zhen. Although his maternal family is not prominent, Concubine Zhen is quite favored. The second prince also has a good reputation outside and is currently very popular. However, Imperial Physician Zhuang once told Zhuang Rui that the second prince is too aggressive and Concubine Zhen's ambition is too obvious, and they will definitely be feared and disliked by the middle-aged emperor.

Although the third prince was the legitimate son, he was the result of the late queen's difficult labor. He was weak and sickly since childhood and was likely to die young. The emperor had never nurtured him.

The fourth prince's mother, Concubine Shu, is the legitimate daughter of the old general Gu Yanzhi and the elder sister of the great general Gu Changgeng.

However, the General's Mansion has never participated in the struggle for the throne, and the Fourth Prince has been taught by Concubine Shu to be fond of poetry and painting since he was a child. The Emperor should also be afraid that the external relatives are too powerful and has long been wary of the Gu family.

If the imperial court had not required the Gu family to protect them, there would have been no good result. For example, the emperor has already trained several high-level generals.

The fifth prince was born to a palace maid. She was barely able to be named Liangdi because of the fifth prince. When she was alive, she was also plagued by illness. Due to her lack of favor, the fifth prince was also treated coldly.

Later, because she was of similar age to the Fourth Prince and had good relations with him, Concubine Shu took good care of her, and her life in the palace became better.

The sixth prince died young, and the seventh prince was still young, only six years old. His mother was a beauty presented by a small border country.

Zheng Xingrong felt that the Fifth Prince had a great chance, but he still didn't dare to risk his family. He was also afraid that if he refused, he would offend the Fifth Prince and thus harm his family.

After thinking about it, I decided to wait until the whole family gathered in the evening.

The Zheng family always ate at the same table, even when Zhuang Rui was around. They had already considered each other as their own family.

After dinner, Zheng Xingrong asked everyone to stay. He asked the servants to remove the food and serve tea, and then asked everyone to leave and guard the door.
