Another World's Imperial Examination Official Path

Sima Weibo looked at Yu Wenjing's greedy appearance, and a mocking look flashed in the depths of his eyes.

This paper-making secret technique is the secret recipe of their Sima family. Does Yu Wenjing really think that he can get it?

He didn't even think about it, if they were really willing to come up with the secret recipe to save Sima Jincheng, wouldn't it be better to make a deal with Yu Wenchang?

The reason why they chose to trade with Yu Wenjing was because the papermaking technique was fake, and they wanted to use this to delay time.

From the beginning to the end, Sima Zhishang never thought of handing over his papermaking skills.

It is said to be false, but it is not completely false, but some key points at the end have been changed.

Their papermaking technique is very complicated and requires a lot of raw materials. It is not as simple as the bamboo paper produced by Chuzhuang and the others.

To make paper, a lot of preparatory work is required in the early stage, and some large-scale equipment also needs to be manufactured.

The prince Yu Wenjing is very tight on money and has no money at all. It is not easy to raise money and prepare in the early stage.

It has been a long time since he has prepared and completed the preparatory work.

At that time, even if Yu Wenjing found out that the secret recipe was fake, the Sima family would not be afraid of him pursuing it, because the war was about to begin.

And if this fake papermaking technique is handed over to Yu Wenchang, the consequences will be different.

Yu Wenchang is now in the household investigation department. In just a few days, he has ransacked the homes of several senior officials of the household department. Found to be fake.

That's why Sima Zhishang chose to trade with the prince Yu Wenjing.

There is no unreasonable advantage in the world to take advantage of.

If so, there are usually dangerous traps and conspiracies hidden behind them.

The reason is very simple, Chu Zhuang and the others saw clearly that there was a trap in it.

But Yu Wenjing, who had been stunned by surprise at this time, did not have the slightest defense against it.

"His Royal Highness, the minister has already presented the secret recipe, so the minister will take his leave first."

Sima Weibo didn't intend to stay any longer, so he said goodbye.

"You go down!"

Yu Wenjing didn't take his eyes off the paper, and waved his hand casually.

Sima Weibo took a deep look at Yu Wenjing, then turned and left.

Not long after Sima Weibo left, Xue Pingli came.

"Uncle, you came just in time. Sima Weibo has already handed over the papermaking secrets to Gu."

Yu Wenjing looked at Xue Pingli and said happily.

"He kept his word."

Xue Pingli nodded slightly, thought for a while and asked again: "Then I wonder when the crown prince plans to start making paper?"

Hearing this, Yu Wenjing sighed slightly and said, "I really wish I could prepare it right now, but it's a pity that to start making paper, we need to prepare raw materials and equipment."

After speaking, Yu Wenjing handed the paper to Xue Pingli.

There is a thick stack of paper, which records the production process in detail.

It is a very large project at first glance.

"Do you need to invest so much in the first place?"

After reading it, Xue Pingli frowned. Originally, he thought it could be produced in small batches.

But according to the records on the paper, these tools are necessary to complete the production.

Yu Wenjing didn't have the slightest doubt about this, instead he opened his mouth to explain for Sima Weibo and the others: "If it wasn't so complicated, this paper-making secret technique wouldn't have been concealed for so many years."

Xue Pingli was not as relieved as Yu Wenjing, and asked with some hesitation: "Could they be deliberately trying to trick us into wasting money?"

"They dare!"

Hearing this, Yu Wenjing snorted coldly and said, "Sima Jincheng is still in Gu's hands, if they dare to lie to Gu..."

Then Sima Jincheng will definitely suffer the most painful torture before he dies!

When Xue Pingli heard this, he also thought about it. This Sima Weibo has always loved Sima Jincheng. Even if he didn't save him, he wouldn't use this method to intentionally harm him.

"Uncle, don't worry."

Yu Wenjing sighed and said: "The most important thing now is not to doubt Sima Weibo and the others, but to worry about how to raise money to prepare all these things."

In the past, the emperor Yu Wenchang didn't get any money, let alone Yu Wenjing.

The Xue family followed the path of a scholarly family, and the family was not very rich.

If they want to get enough money, they still have to figure out a way.

"It's not difficult. Nowadays, many people in the court want to join the prince's family..." Xue Pingli thought for a while and said.

As long as these people who take refuge in Yu Wenjing pay a considerable amount of filial money, that is enough.

"Well, it's doable."

Yu Wenjing nodded slightly.

Originally, he wanted to go to Jingheng to get money, Xiangguo Temple was full of incense, and Jingheng had a lot of money.

It's just a pity that Jingheng has left now, leaving only Jingtong in Xiangguo Temple. Jingtong does not have the authority to use such a large amount of money.

So right now, we can only prepare slowly.

……

Under Sun Dehua's order, Sun Jia found the dregs of Zhao Yimeng's medicine from the kitchen, and took the dregs to the medicine hall to ask the doctor.

I asked several companies in a row, and the doctors there said that there is no problem with the medicine, it is just an ordinary medicine for treating wind and cold.

After all, it was Chu Hesheng's secret recipe, and if it was found out so easily, the word "secret" would not be acceptable.

Originally, Sun Jia was about to give up, but when he thought of Zhao Yimeng's guilty face at that time, he still felt that there was something wrong with the medicine.

"These doctors are ordinary doctors, and it's normal if they can't find out. I'll go find a famous doctor!"

Sun Jia went directly to the largest medicine hall, asking for the help of the sage inside to check it out.

But it is obvious that the holy hand is not just a servant of Sun Jia who can see him whenever he wants, and the premise is that he must pay the medical fee first.

Sun Dehua doesn't have much money now, and Sun Jia, as his servant, is naturally poor, and can't even get a copper coin.

In the end, he could only be driven out of it in a disgruntled manner.

However, Sun Jia was not willing to give up like this. He asked all the way to come to the door. As long as he could meet a famous doctor who was willing to help him, he would completely give up.

"Go to Yongjian Lane to find Dr. Xue Qing, Dr. Xue is a famous doctor, and he doesn't charge a consultation fee."

A kind person reminded Sun Jia.

Doctors these days ask for money to see a doctor.

Xue Qingsuo lives in Yongjian Lane, most of them are from poor families, and he is kind-hearted, so he does not charge for consultation fees, only some money for medicines.

Anyway, he is getting old now, and he doesn't pay much attention to external objects such as money, he just wants to feel at ease.

When Sun Jia heard the words, he immediately went to Yongjian Lane. Xue Qing was considered a well-known person in the alley, so he found the medicine hall after a little inquiry.

"The legs and feet are fine, but after all, the bones are hurt. In the next few years of rainy days, I am afraid that the legs and feet will have bone-piercing pain."

When Sun Jia arrived, Xue Qing was showing his legs. He looked around and didn't rush to disturb him.

"Doctor, can you help me see if there is any problem with this medicine?"

Sun Jia waited until the person left, and then carefully approached with the medicine dregs in his hand to inquire.

"This……"

Xue Qing looked at the jar of decocting medicine in Sun Jia's hand and was stunned. This was the first time someone asked him to see medicine instead of a doctor.

But soon Xue Qing came back to his senses, nodded and said: "Yes."

"Bring a plate here."

Xue Qing looked at the apprentice beside him and ordered.

"Okay, master!"

He Li quickly brought the plate over.

Xue Qing took the jar from Sun Jia's hand, sniffed it a little, and asked, "Is it a prescription for typhoid fever?"

"um, yes……"

Sun Jia nodded, told Xue Qing about Sun Dehua's situation, and said nervously: "My young master is drinking this medicine, but his condition has not improved, and he vomited a big mouthful of blood before."

Xue Qing couldn't help frowning when he heard this, he shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be..."

With that said, Xue Qing spread the medicinal residues on the plate, and then carefully inspected it.

"This is……"

Not long after, Xue Qing picked out a few black root-like medicines from the medicine dregs. He frowned and smelled it.

"Doctor, is there something wrong with this medicine?"

Seeing Xue Qing's appearance, Sun Jia asked nervously.

He asked so many people, but no one thought there was something wrong with the medicine. Xue Qing was the first person to see something wrong.

Xue Qing didn't answer, but put the root into his mouth and tasted it slightly.

"master!"

Seeing this, He Li immediately wanted to step forward to stop it. If there was something wrong with this thing, wouldn't Xue Qing let himself be involved?

"No problem..."

Xue Qing waved his hand and took out the tree root, he just tasted it a little bit.

Seeing that Xue Qing took it out, He Li breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly poured a cup of tea for him to rinse his mouth.

Xue Qing simply rinsed his mouth, and then looked at Sun Jia solemnly.

"Doctor, how is it?"

Sun Jia looked at Xue Qing nervously.

"This is Tripterygium wilfordii. It is a chronic poison. If you take it for a long time, your body will gradually weaken and eventually die suddenly." Xue Qing explained.

This Tripterygium wisteria is rare and few people know about it.

Mixed in the drug residue, it is difficult to be sent off, it will only be regarded as the residue of the drug.

It is because Xue Qing is well-informed and knows a lot of herbs, so he discovered it.

"Ah! That young master! Doctor, is there any help?!"

When Sun Jia heard this answer, his complexion suddenly changed, and he looked at Xue Qing and asked nervously.

Sun Dehua has been taking this medicine for several months, can he still be saved?

"This……"

Xue Qing couldn't guarantee this, so he looked at Sun Jia and said, "You have to see the patient before you know."

Generally speaking, as long as you don't vomit blood, you can still be saved, but just now Sun Jia said that Sun Dehua has already vomited blood, so the problem is a bit tricky.

"Doctor, please save my son, please!"

Sun Jia immediately knelt down and begged Xue Qing.

"Instead of kneeling here, you might as well go and bring your young master here. My master will definitely save you if he can."

He Li helped Sun Jia up, and persuaded him.
