"I haven't heard of it."

Pei Xiao's deep-set eyebrows and eyes were immediately filled with displeasure:

"Didn't I tell you to pay more attention to the miraculous doctors and eccentrics among the people? How come you don't know about this matter when it has become such a hot topic?"

Zhang paused, a look of worry and sadness appeared on her face, and she said aggrievedly:

"It's my fault. It's just that Jin'er's mood has changed drastically recently, and I just wanted to make him happy, but I didn't pay much attention to what was happening outside."

In front of Pei Xiao, she has always been caring and loving towards Pei Jin, with a kind motherly heart.

Then, Pei Xiao's frown finally relaxed:

"Forget it. Tomorrow you can take a gift to congratulate the prefect, and then ask the Yan family where they hired the doctor from. We must also invite this person to try Jin'er."

Although the civil and military families were from different families, they were all from the capital, and there was some contact between the Jingnan Marquisate and the Tongzhifu. It was not presumptuous for him to ask Zhang to come and congratulate him.

Zhang concealed the expression in her eyes and said softly:

"Don't worry, my Lord. I will definitely find out everything. Seeing Jin-ge like this, I feel so sad. I wish I could be sick myself!"

Pei Xiao held her hand and squeezed it, his brows softening a little:

"Brother Jin's condition has not improved recently, and Madam has been working hard."

The two of them were very affectionate. The next day, when Pei Xiao went to the military camp for duty, Zhang asked someone to deliver a visiting card to the Tongzhifu, and ordered Liu Ma to go to the storehouse to get a set of the best four treasures of the study as a gift for her visit to the Tongzhifu later.

Aunt Liu was puzzled:

"Madam, do you really want to go and get the news?"

Zhang said:

"Of course I will go. I will just think of it as helping the Marquis maintain the relationship with his colleagues."

Aunt Liu said worriedly:

"But what if that miracle doctor really has the ability to cure Brother Jin..."

Zhang's delicate lips curled up, but there was a cold look in her eyes:

"He better not."

"Otherwise, nowadays, there are natural disasters and man-made disasters everywhere. I don't know how many times a mere doctor like him can escape them."

Madam Liu immediately understood her plan and said with a flattering smile:

"Sure enough, nothing can stump Madam!"

Madam Yan had just returned from a visit to Cihang Temple today to try to get close to the people when she received a visiting card from the Marquis of Jingnan's Mansion.

He felt a little embarrassed at once, so that night he took the visiting card to seek advice from Yan Tongzhi.

"Master, what do you think we should do? The wife of Marquis Jingnan must be here to inquire about the doctor who cured Yuner. Should we tell her or not?"

"If we don't tell them, we are both officials from the capital who came to Nandu to serve, and it would be difficult to explain. Besides, it's pitiful that Jin-ge got such a strange disease at such a young age. Thinking of how much pain our Yun-er suffered at the time, I really can't bear it."

"But if I tell them..."

This was their previous concern.

The reputation of Cihang Temple spread too quickly, which was very disadvantageous for people like them who were still "guilty".

Yan Tongzhi, however, was not so compassionate. They were not close friends, so why should he sacrifice his own interests just because he felt sorry for their child?

He stroked his beard and pondered for a moment, then made up his mind and whispered something in Madam Yan's ear.

Madam Yan also thought it was feasible, and during the day she asked someone to write back to the Marquis of Jingnan's Mansion.

The next morning, Mrs. Zhang, the wife of Marquis Jingnan, came to the prefecture.

Zhang presented a gift, and the two exchanged pleasantries before getting down to business:

"To be honest with you, Sister-in-law Yan, I came here this time to ask about the miracle doctor who cured Yun'er."

Madam Yan said apologetically:

"It's an unfortunate coincidence that Madam Hou came. He was a traveling doctor. At the time, I didn't know his ability and didn't take him seriously. Later, my son used his prescription for a while and it suddenly worked. Then I realized that this man was really capable. Now you want to ask me about his whereabouts and origins, I really don't know."

Yan Yun had hired many famous doctors and traveling physicians in the past, so it was completely understandable what he said.

Zhang was secretly delighted, but she asked anxiously:
