Ayan was stunned for a long time, and her lips moved: "Is it true? Senior brother has really praised me like this?"

Ever since she started going down the mountain to make medical appointments and became famous, the senior brother began to alienate her.

The senior brother travels to free clinics all year round, and the money he saves over the years is less than what she earns in a year. I heard that he likes to spread his wealth, so he spends his own money to cook medicine to treat typhoid fever and distribute it to others.

He occasionally returned to Nanshan and shook his head and sighed when he saw her. Once he finally couldn't help but said: "Junior sister, how can a doctor be so benevolent that he can only see yellow and white things in his eyes?"

After finishing speaking, Que Wen was silent for a moment, "If you are short of money, you can ask Master and me for it. No matter how talented a doctor is, he still needs to grow up in medical treatment. You stay behind closed doors all day long and indulge in old papers. You are only willing to go to the doctor if invited by the powerful." , it is difficult to become a great tool."

The eldest brother was always gentle, but this was the first time he said harsh words to her.

After being stabbed in the painful spot, Ayan retorted to him a few words. Seeing that he was extremely disappointed, she felt a little regretful at night and planned to apologize, but found that her senior brother had already left.

She came back to her senses, looked at Yu Tingwan, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid Madam is trying to coax me. Senior brother dislikes me for smelling like copper."

"Zhongwang was in Yizhou at that time. When he was walking on the waterway, he met a young master from the Xinglin family. His mother always praised the child for his talent and his great fortune in the future." Yu Tingwan smiled, "Zhongwang said, he You are the most talented doctor I have ever seen, and you are the most diligent doctor I have ever learned."

Ayan was a little at a loss and denied it repeatedly: "How is it possible? Before I came to Chang'an, my senior brother went back to Nanshan and didn't even see me."

Yu Tingwan guessed that Ayan was invited by Pei Zhi, and now he was sure.

Pei Zhi said that he would leave Que Wen to Marquis Pingyang with full authority, but without his signal, his brother would never dare to let Que Wen go.

She didn't think about it for the time being, and calmed down her emotions and said, "You learned the "Synopsis of the Golden Chamber" from him. He said that if you are willing to put down your body and practice diagnosis, and see more diseases, your reputation will not be inferior to his."

Ayan was stunned for a moment. This was indeed what her senior brother would say. She pursed her lips and said, "Senior brother has such a wonderful idea. He never prejudices me because of my appearance, so he thinks everyone is the same."

"I once listened to his words and followed his example in traveling down the mountain. That year there was a plague in Yunzhong County, and I was almost burned to death as a bad omen." Ayan said with anger in her eyes, "Fortunately, I wore gold and silver. Lingluo Silk satin, lied that she was a relative of Shuofang County Governor, and was saved from death."

"Unknown?" Yu Tingwan glanced at Ayan, "In troubled times, it is easy for people to believe in gods and ghosts. Therefore, after the world is at peace, it is necessary to correct customs and enlighten people's wisdom."

"I don't think there's any need to conform to customs. Just tell them all to die." Ayan said in a relaxed tone, "The rest are smart people."

"What is a smart person? Is Mr. Baopu considered a smart person?"

"Of course." Ayan said without hesitation: "He is proficient in hundreds of schools of thought and is an imperial master. He will definitely not be like those unscrupulous people. He is always an 'ominous sign'. It's a pity that he is dead."

"He thinks I'm ominous. Not only him, but many people also think so."

Ayan looked surprised and looked up and down at the person in front of her for a while, "Why?"

"They think that I am charming the king, like Zheng Xiubaosi, and that it is unlucky for the country."

Ayan has been studying medicine since she was a child and is not interested in history books. She asked: "I know Bao Si, who is Zheng Xiu?"

"She is most famous for being jealous. Because the King of Chu favored his concubine, she used tricks to get rid of her. She also——"

"I understand." The girl interrupted her, "But what does that have to do with you? The emperor is not the King of Chu. He has no concubines and no princes. How could anyone scold you like this?"

"Looking at it this way, it's not such a pity for Mr. Baopu to die." Ayan leaned forward and asked curiously: "Who else scolded you?"

"Cui Taipu, Wei Ping, Gao Zhan..."

"Oh," Ayan raised her head, remembering that she seemed to have heard these names from the imperial doctor's chat before leaving Shanglin Garden, "Don't worry, they are all dead."

Yu Tingwan paused. Chang'an was under martial law and the news that King Linzi's rebellion involved several major gentry clans had not yet spread to the people. Ayan said that he came straight to her from Nanshan and how he knew this.

"I heard someone talking about the case on the roadside, and I just found out about it." Ayan realized that she had said the wrong thing and began to explain.

"Did the passers-by mention the emperor's assassination when they were discussing it?"

Ayan didn't react for a moment, and said with a confused face: "What assassination?"

Seeing that the girl's subconscious reaction didn't seem to be fake, Yu Tingwan looked much more relaxed.

When Ayan left the yard, she didn't understand why the queen suddenly mentioned being assassinated.

Seeing the girl's back disappear, the expression on Xie Xuan's face became more complicated.

After today, no matter how much Yu Xiuyun denied it or came up with all kinds of excuses, he could not alleviate the queen's suspicion at all.

*

After returning to Chang'an from Shanglin Garden, Marquis Pingyang was so busy that he did not know the day or night, and he had to always be on guard against the remnants of the traitors seeking revenge.

After encountering an assassin on the way to the imperial court for the third time, Yu Xiuyun couldn't bear it anymore and entered the palace to see His Majesty.

"Haven't Lieutenant Zhenyi dealt with those people yet? I want to visit my sister."

As soon as Pingyang Hou was assassinated, Pei Zhi got the news and put down the cinnabar pen in his hand, "My captain in prison is a human being, not a Taoist priest holding a gourd to ward off monsters."

The corner of Yu Xiuyun's mouth twitched, because the Wei family was also involved in the seal case. His Majesty rebuked the Wei family for wanting to slander the Tian family through the revision of history and pave the way for the King of Linzi, so he ordered the Tingwei to try the two cases together.

Although after this case, no one dared to express any dissatisfaction with His Majesty's new policies, but in just over half a month, tens of thousands of people were involved. It is really... that only a founding king like Pei Zhi who came out of the army dared to do this. In this matter, if it were another person, he would weigh his concerns and choose a softer approach.

Pei Zhi knew what Marquis Pingyang was thinking, so he chuckled and said, "When I was in Jingzhou, I said that Marquis Pingyang is not suitable to be a master because you are too kind to your subjects."

"The first person who came to persuade you to surrender should have been killed for disturbing the war situation. Marquis Pingyang actually gave up after sending him away, telling them to surrender without restraint."

Yu Xiuyun's face turned blue after being poked in a painful spot.

"I will send two guards to protect you." Pei Zhi lowered his head and glanced at the fold, obviously not wanting to say more.

"The guards are a sharp weapon in the hands of the emperor, and I am afraid of them." Yu Xiuyun was a little shocked, and then bowed his head and declined.

The man behind the throne was a little impatient. If he hadn't been afraid that something would happen to Marquis Pingyang and he would be sad later, he wouldn't have sent the guards to him.

Seeing that His Majesty stopped talking and just glanced at him coldly, Yu Xiuyun choked for a moment, knowing that he could not refuse.

Zhen Yiwei was indeed more efficient than the people in the Hou Mansion. At least when he saw the assassin, he was already a corpse.

When everything settled, it was the end of August, and Yu Xiuyun finally no longer had to worry about being a target and harming his sister. He went straight to Sili's house without waiting for a moment.

After getting off the carriage and walking to the gate of the courtyard, he heard laughter coming from inside. The originally hurried young man slowed down his pace. He couldn't help but feel his eyebrows twitching when he remembered the flaw Ayan had revealed in his wife's letter.

Yu Xiuyun was a little nervous. He hesitated for a long time and did not dare to go in. He cursed His Majesty silently in his heart.

In the end, Xie Xuan noticed Youdao's gaze, and by some strange coincidence, she raised her head and looked over. She waved to him to come over quickly as she was not bothered by the excitement.

"Yu Xiuyun, what are you doing standing there stupidly?" Xie Xuan looked at her husband sitting beside her slightly stiffly with a smile on her face.

Marquis Pingyang coughed slightly and said to the maid beside him: "Put away the blankets I brought."

"What blanket?" Yu Tingwan glanced outside.

"During the autumn hunting, His Majesty rewarded me with a tiger skin and two white bear skins. I asked them to make blankets for use when the weather gets cold."

Hearing Hupi, Yu Tingwan frowned slightly, "Your Majesty went into battle in person?"

"Yes." Yu Xiuyun realized that there was no need to hide this matter. He lowered his head and took a sip of tea and said casually: "Your Majesty shot the tiger himself and peeled off the tiger skin."
