The legitimate daughter becomes cannon fodder? Rebirth to overthrow the system's fatality
Chapter 30 Pretending to be sick
The smoke is floating, the snow is falling, and the snow is piling up on the plum branches.
Cheng Jiuyuan didn't have to run to Yunwu Mountain. After reading for an hour, Song Lan took her book and forced her to stand up and move around.
Cheng Jiuyuan stood in front of the window, looking at the red plum blossoms outside, blooming in full bloom against the snow.
At this time, Chun Xing came in hurriedly from outside the yard.
"Young lady, hurry up, the imperial physician is here! He is drinking tea in the front hall right now."
Cheng Jiuyuan quickly closed the window, took out the failed fake death pill, swallowed it in one gulp, and quickly lay down on the bed.
Hibiscus let down the bed curtains, and together with Isatis, they lit the wormwood that had been prepared long ago, and brought the bitter medicine that had just been boiled, until the whole room was filled with the smell of medicine.
Chun Xing suddenly said, "Girl, your face is too rosy, do you want to put on some powder?"
"No need."
The medicine took effect quickly after she took it, and she now felt that she had no strength left in her body.
Cheng Jiuyuan's face turned pale and even the color of her lips faded.
If they didn't know that she was taking medicine, they would have scared the girls to death.
Everything was ready and voices could be heard outside the yard.
The three girls immediately changed their expressions and looked sad.
Pei Xiu led the imperial physician into the outer room and asked the maid in a low voice, "Is the young lady asleep again?"
"Yes, I took the medicine and went back to sleep."
At this moment, a cough was heard in the room, as if the lungs were about to be coughed out.
Pei Xiu hurried forward: "Yuan'er, are you okay?"
Mu Jin rolled up the curtain, revealing Cheng Jiuyuan's face.
It looks like he is in a desperate situation.
Doctor Zhang's heart trembled. He said that he had cured the prime minister's daughter and made the prime minister owe him a favor. He didn't expect that Miss Cheng was so seriously ill.
"Yuan'er, this is Doctor Zhang from the capital. Let him take a look at you."
Cheng Jiuyuan half opened her eyes and said, "Thank you, cough cough..." It seemed as if she had used up all her strength to say these few words, and she continued coughing after she finished.
"Mr. Zhang, please." Pei Xiu couldn't help but sigh at his niece's acting skills that were so deceptive that it would kill people without any compensation.
Doctor Zhang sat on the stool beside the bed and took Cheng Jiuyuan's pulse, his expression becoming more and more solemn.
This, this is the sign of death!
How can I go to Beijing with him?
If he died on the way, wouldn't the Prime Minister cause trouble for him?
"How?" Pei Xiu asked.
Doctor Zhang withdrew his hand and looked at Pei Xiu.
He really wanted to say, "Prepare for your funeral."
Pei Xiu hurriedly said, "There is a medicinal spring in Gusu. I plan to send Yuan'er there. What do you think, Mr. Zhang?"
Doctor Zhang said quickly, "Very well, very well. Miss Cheng's illness cannot allow her to travel through mountains and rivers for a long time, so she cannot return to Beijing."
Cheng Jiuyuan spoke slowly: "Uncle Zhang, please tell my father on my behalf after you return to Beijing that I am unfilial. I am not in good health and cannot be filial to my father..."
He was almost dying of illness, but he was still thinking about fulfilling his filial duty. Doctor Zhang felt sad.
He turned around and wrote a prescription and handed it to Pei Xiu.
"This prescription can alleviate Miss Cheng's pain. Sigh... I'll take my leave now."
Pei Xiu's face was filled with sadness: "I'll take you out."
After everyone left, Mu Jin quickly closed the door.
"Miss, you can get up now."
"I can't get up. The medicine will take half a day to work." Cheng Jiuyuan said weakly while lying on the bed.
This is too painful, and she doesn't want to touch this medicine again unless it is absolutely necessary.
Pei Xiu led Doctor Zhang out when suddenly some guards hurried in.
"Master, there is news about the anti-poison pill!"
Pei Xiu said anxiously: "Hurry up and tell me!"
"It is said that in three days, Baibao Pavilion will auction the Anti-Poison Pill, but the starting price is sky-high, starting at 50,000 taels."
"Things belonging to the Judge of Life and Death are naturally worth the price."
Doctor Zhang also understood, his eyes lit up: "Judge of life and death? Yan Guihong?"
Pei Xiu said politely: "Exactly, have you heard of it too?"
"Doctor, who hasn't heard of Yan Guihong? The detoxification pill you just mentioned..."
"Oh, isn't it the New Year's Day that's approaching? It's time to offer tribute to the imperial court. This year I plan to present this detoxification pill as a tribute."
Doctor Zhang opened his mouth wide and looked at Pei Xiu enviously.
As expected of the wealthy Pei family, fifty thousand taels! How many lifetimes would he have to earn to earn this fifty thousand taels?
People will give it away without blinking an eye.
"Brother Pei, if you really offer this elixir as a tribute, you will be rich."
Although the fact that the emperor was suffering from a chronic poison was kept secret, as the imperial physician, he naturally knew a little about it.
The Pei family is going to be lucky!
He had to return to Beijing as soon as possible to tell the emperor the good news.
"Brother Pei, goodbye."
"You walk slowly."
After seeing off Imperial Physician Zhang, Pei Xiu returned to Cuizhu Garden.
As soon as I entered the room, the smell of medicine hit my nose. "Hurry up and open the window. The smell of medicine in this room is so suffocating."
Hibiscus and woad opened the window.
"Yuan'er, are you okay?"
Although he knew she was pretending, she looked so real that he almost believed it.
"It's okay. It will be fine after the effect of the medicine wears off."
"Uncle, you can write to my father in two days. In addition to telling him about the anti-poison pill, you should also tell him that I need to recuperate with the miracle doctor for several years before I can get well. This will prevent him from bothering me every year."
"it is good."
It was almost You time (5pm) when the effect of Cheng Jiuyuan's medicine completely wore off.
She lay there for half a day, and her bones felt sore.
"Miss, the three young masters are all going home today, and there will be a family dinner in the evening. I will help you dress up, and let's go to the old lady's room first."
Cheng Jiuyuan then remembered that the annual exam was over and her three cousins would be back today.
After getting dressed, Cheng Jiuyuan went to her grandmother's room. Sheng was there too, but she didn't look very well.
"Yuan'er, stay and talk to your grandmother. Your aunt will go and see how the dinner is prepared." After saying this, Sheng stood up, bowed to Madam Pei, and was about to leave with the maid.
"Take care, aunt."
Sheng nodded and left Shouchun Hall.
"Grandma, what happened to my aunt?"
"Your aunt Sheng has been wronged, alas..." Mrs. Pei sighed.
Cheng Jiuyuan looked at Hongye beside the old lady.
Hongye explained, "Madam Ruyi went to the storehouse to get things every day, so she locked the storehouse. As a result, for some reason, the master asked the lady to give the key to the storehouse to Madam Ruyi last night."
"Mrs. Ruyi is very proud now..."
"Yuan'er is just a little child, why are you telling her these things?" said Old Madam Pei.
Cheng Jiuyuan looked towards the door.
I'm sorry, aunt, I have to bear with it for a while.
Weng Ruyi's complacency won't last long.
"grandmother!"
Pei Yan's voice was heard from afar, and Madam Pei smiled and said, "This house will be lively from now on."
After the annual examinations, they would prepare for the New Year's Festival. After the New Year's Festival, Pei Xuan and his friends would return to the academy.
Soon, three young men in white came in, making Shouchun Hall much brighter.
"Greetings to grandma." The three of them bowed in unison.
Cheng Jiuyuan stood up and bowed: "Cousin."
Pei Jin smiled and said, "I didn't expect that my cousin could really make Master change his mind and accept you as his disciple."
"I heard that my cousin memorized the "Collection of Herbs" in just two days?" Pei Xuan asked.
Cheng Jiuyuan nodded: "Yes."
"Cousin, you are so awesome! If I had your ability, I wouldn't always be kept back by the teacher." Pei Yan looked at Cheng Jiuyuan with envy in his eyes.
"By the way, we brought you some fun gadgets, take a look and see if you like them."
Pei Yan took the package from the servant, put it on the table and opened it.
"This drink is bought for you by your elder brother. Look, you can change the movements."
"This was also bought by my elder brother. This is the pottery whistle I bought for you, and this Kongming lock..."
Pei Yan showed her the items one by one as if he was presenting treasures.
Pei Xuan had a faint smile on his face and his eyes were gentle.
Pei Jin said: "Before, we didn't have a younger sister at home, and we didn't know what little girls like. I asked my classmates who had younger sisters at home, and bought these."
Tranquility and warmth permeated the house, and Cheng Jiuyuan felt warmth surging in her heart.
"Yuan'er likes it very much. Thank you three cousins."
She likes everyone in the Pei family except Weng Ruyi.
She would never let anyone destroy this kind of beauty!
