Du Yusheng was slightly stunned. He looked at Gu Qinlan's worried expression, and then glanced at Zheng Dingyi's pitiful and pleading face. He felt that something was wrong...
But Du Yusheng was not a dull person, he reacted quickly.
These two people were clearly singing the same tune, intending to use his name to hype up Taibai Tower. After all, he was the director of the Imperial Hospital and the eldest disciple of Master Zeng. Who would dare to question the authority of the medicinal diet recipes that he personally improved?
Du Yusheng was both angry and amused. He stared at the two of them and said in a feigned anger:
"You two are two weird guys, each of you has hundreds of tricks in your mind! You are so blatantly planning to use me, aren't you?"
Gu Qinlan was blamed, but she was not angry. She knew that Du Yusheng was joking and trying to scare her, so she responded with a smile:
"That's impossible! Senior Brother, this is just Jiang Taigong fishing, those who are willing to take the bait will take the bait. If you are unwilling to help, I will go to Master to complain."
Du Yusheng's eyes fell on Gu Qinlan's face. Her serene smile seemed to be able to wash away the hustle and bustle of the world. It was like a quiet painting, showing the demeanor of a quiet woman who lived a peaceful life.
However, who could have expected that this seemingly harmless girl would be so ruthless and cruel when it came to plotting against people’s hearts.
Du Yusheng felt helpless and couldn't help laughing. He said with a bit of joking in his tone:
"Master usually likes to praise you for being a seemingly quiet little girl, but in fact you are the most majestic. I thought Master was exaggerating, but after meeting you today, Master still has reservations about his evaluation of you."
Speaking of Master, Gu Qinlan couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic. She pursed her lips slightly and smiled:
"Since Senior Brother is willing to help, please come to Taibai Tower frequently these days. After all, with Senior Brother's care, we can feel more at ease."
"Of course, we can't let Senior Brother's hard work go in vain. One hundred percent of Taibai Tower's profits will be returned to Senior Brother as dividends."
Du Yusheng did not refuse this kindness.
He knew very well that Gu Qinlan's action was not only out of gratitude, but also intended to closely link him with Taibai Tower.
With the support of the chief judge of the Imperial Medical Bureau, they were undoubtedly more powerful.
Zheng Dingyi was very happy when he saw Du Yusheng agreed.
Although he had thought of inviting Du Yusheng to take charge, since they were not close friends and only had an old friendship between their fathers, he could only shamelessly ask for help in the medicinal recipe.
Fortunately, he happened to meet Gu Qinlan, and was able to bring this distinguished guest completely under the protection of Taibai Tower.
I was a little nervous at first, but now I am full of confidence.
Since the matter had been decided, Zheng Dingyi did not stay any longer. After agreeing on a time with Du Yusheng, he left in a hurry.
There were countless matters waiting for him to deal with in Taibai Tower, and he was extremely busy.
After Zheng Dingyi left, Gu Qinlan turned around, looked at Du Yunyuan with gentle eyes, and said with a smile:
"Sister, I have something to discuss with my brother. Can you please take Huiyi to taste some delicious food?"
Du Yunyuan naturally had no objection, nodded slightly, and then stretched out a hand to Zheng Huiyi, inviting gently:
"Come on, sister will take you to find something delicious."
Zheng Huiyi looked at Gu Qinlan and Du Yusheng, with some hesitation and worry in her eyes.
She wondered to herself, if she left and she wasn't there to supervise, would this uncle kidnap her mother?
Gu Qinlan noticed Zheng Huiyi's hesitation. Although she didn't know what the little girl was thinking, she still gently comforted her:
"Huiyi, be obedient. Mom will come to pick you up later. Then we can go buy your favorite peach blossom cake together, okay?"
"Okay..." Zheng Huiyi nodded her little head gently, her eyes focused on Du Yusheng again, and said in a serious and threatening tone:
"Uncle, you must not compete with Huiyi for mother! You must remember to return mother to me intact."
Du Yusheng couldn't help but smile bitterly. He looked at his sister, then turned to Zheng Huiyi and asked doubtfully:
"Why do you call her sister and me uncle?"
"Because you are old."
After Zheng Huiyi said this simple and direct sentence, she took Gu Junyuan, whose smile was about to get out of control, and left the scene briskly.
Du Yusheng's handsome and gentle face froze in an instant, and signs of cracks seemed faintly visible.
Gu Qinlan suppressed her smile and coughed lightly: "Don't worry about it, Senior Brother. Huiyi is still young and speaks bluntly. She doesn't know how to be cautious..."
"It's okay, it's okay, it's just a child, hehe..."
Du Yusheng's smile seemed a little forced. He tried his best to maintain his composure. Then he adjusted his mood and asked curiously:
"Junior sister specially arranged for them to leave. Could it be that there is something important to discuss?"
Gu Qinlan immediately stopped smiling and became serious. She told Du Yusheng all the details about Zheng Fenghui's condition and pulse.
After hearing this, Du Yusheng frowned and finally understood why Gu Qinlan wanted to hide this matter.
After all, Zheng Fenghui, as the eldest son of Zheng Dinglian, was poisoned secretly without anyone noticing.
If this is not an internal family conspiracy, then the issues involved are much more extensive.
perhaps……
It also involves the grievances of the previous dynasty.
Zheng Dinglian's identity was extraordinary. He had made outstanding military achievements at a young age and held a very important position in the court.
The current political situation is not clear.
The emperor is in his sixties and his health is deteriorating.
The princes in the court have long been eyeing the throne.
As Zheng Dinglian was a powerful force, almost every prince wanted to win him over to his own camp.
However, winning over Zheng Dinglian also means taking certain risks.
After all, if Zheng Dinglian cannot be completely controlled, no one can guarantee that he will not strike back.
Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that some people attempted to achieve their own goals by taking action against Zheng Dinglian's eldest son.
After all, although this kind of mania can cause patients to lose their minds intermittently, it does not directly threaten their lives.
And if someone has the antidote to this disease, they can use it at any time to force Zheng Dinglian to take sides.
only……
Only someone like Du Yusheng, who is deep in the palace, could have some knowledge of these complicated court struggles and make such speculations.
In this quiet backyard, this junior sister is so smart that she can lead to so many associations from a small matter. Her wisdom is so superb that it is simply astonishing and almost demonic!
Du Yusheng pondered for a moment, shook his head apologetically, and said in a gentle tone:
"I have never heard of this strange poison. However, there seems to be an ancient scroll in the palace's collection that once recorded a similar case. I will check it carefully after I return to the palace."
After hearing this, Gu Qinlan still felt a little disappointed, but she also understood that if the other party was deliberately hiding something, he would not easily reveal the clues. However, having a glimmer of hope is always comforting.
"Then, I'll trouble you, Senior Brother."
