Chapter 113: It might be a strange disease
Su Yuewu was about to get angry after hearing the first half of the sentence, but he was stunned by the second half of his sister's words.
"Huh?" He looked confused, totally not understanding what his sister meant.
"You just need to do as I say. Send the gossipers to the Jingzhao Yin Mansion and sue them for spreading rumors. Jingzhao Yin will handle it himself." Su Qingwan said with a smile.
Although she didn't know who arranged the Master Kongru whom she met in the palace before, there was no reason for a monk who didn't care about worldly affairs to talk nonsense rashly.
What's more, the place where they met by chance was not a street, but a palace.
In that kind of place, the old monk dared to say directly that he was so unlucky that it was hard to find a good match, and he even persuaded himself to become a monk, which showed that he knew he was not a member of the royal family and he obviously did it on purpose.
But no matter who arranged it for him, the old monk's purpose was very clear. He wanted to ruin his engagement with King Rui.
This is a good thing!
But she didn't want to be known as someone who was unlucky in marriage, so she could only "suffer" Prince Rui and Su Yunrou to bear the blame.
Su Yuewu thought about it, but couldn't figure out why his sister did this. He had a headache from thinking about it, so he pressed his temple with his hand and said:
"Okay, if someone spreads this rumor, I will send the person to Jingzhao Yinfu."
Su Qingwan looked at his expression just now, which was very similar to the headache he had when he saw the military book before, and she couldn't help but frowned secretly.
"Don't go out to play today. When Aunt Rong and Da Nian come back later, let Da Nian take your pulse."
"I'm not sick. If you don't believe me, I'll show you." Su Yuewu said this and started punching in the room.
The fist was so powerful that it almost hit Coral who came to deliver snacks, causing her to scream in surprise.
"Okay, sit down quickly. It's just a routine pulse check. Why are you so excited?"
Su Qingwan pulled Su Yuewu over and asked him to sit down again.
"What have you been doing with Brother Ba Wang these days?" I heard you went out of town to play. "
Su Yuewu chuckled, "Sister, Brother Ba Wang and the others took me to choose a horse. I picked a particularly strong one with four hooves stepping on the snow. It runs as fast as the wind."
"Why don't we go out of town tomorrow and visit the Imperial College and see my brother."
Su Qingwan wanted to go, but she was busy with many things and it was not the time to play.
"Let's do it another day. I'm too busy these days. And don't just play around. Don't forget to read the military books." Su Qingwan reminded.
"Oh!" Su Yuewu instantly wilted when this was mentioned.
After the two siblings chatted for a while, a maid came to report that Aunt Rong and the others had returned.
After waiting for another cup of tea, Aunt Rong and Da Nian entered Helin Courtyard.
Su Qingwan asked Aunt Rong to put the furniture and ornaments that were brought back in place, and then called Da Nian to ask him to check Su Yuewu's pulse.
Da Nian felt Su Yuewu's pulse, switching his hands back and forth. His expression changed several times before returning to calm.
Su Yue was very brave and didn't see any problem. He just waited for Da Nian to feel his pulse and said confidently, "How is it? Is this young master in good health?"
Da Nian and Su Qingwan looked at each other and said, "The Third Young Master has been practicing martial arts for many years, and his foundation is very good. He is indeed very healthy."
"Sister, should you feel relieved now?"
Su Yuewu wanted to leave. Just now his sister asked him to talk about military strategy, which made him feel extremely painful.
"Don't worry, you can go back to your room and rest. If you can't sit still, go and help Aunt Rong put things away." Su Qingwan said.
Upon hearing this, Su Yuewu immediately ran out with a chuckle.
Su Qingwan heard his footsteps fade away before asking Da Nian.
"How is Wu Ge'er's health?"
"Miss, the Third Young Master's illness is very strange. It is somewhat similar to a strange disease I have seen in an ancient book before, but I am not sure and need to verify it further."
These words made Su Qingwan nervous. Da Nian was an expert in medicine, and he learned his skills from his master's wife. If he could see that there was something wrong with Su Yuewu's body, then there must be something wrong.
"Will this disease be fatal?" Su Qingwan asked.
Da Nian was silent for a moment. "Ancient books record that this disease can cause people to lose all reason, become violent and bloodthirsty."
How can this be?
Su Qingwan's face was full of astonishment, her fingers tightened, and the teacup shattered in an instant.
"Miss, don't worry. I'm just guessing now. I'm not sure whether the Third Young Master has this disease."
Su Qingwan lowered her eyes, looked at the porcelain fragments remaining in her palm, threw them to the ground, took a breath and said;
"You have to keep Wu Ge'er's affairs a secret from your family, and don't let him find out anything. Just check it quietly. If you need my help, tell me in time."
"Yes!" Da Nian responded and walked out.
Su Qingwan was panicked.
In his previous life, Su Yuewu went out with the people from the second house, and after he came back, he became stupid and foolish.
But at that time, she had already married Zhang Jueping and only came back to visit Su Yuewu once. After that, she never left the Zhang family again.
The next time we heard about Su Yuewu, it was the sad news that he was eaten by wild dogs.
She thought that after her rebirth, she would be able to protect her brother for the rest of his life, but she didn't expect that he might have a strange disease.
When Su Qingwan thought of what Da Nian had just said, her heart felt as if it was being squeezed by something and she felt extremely uncomfortable.
But now she has no other choice but to pin her hopes on Da Nian, but she is unwilling to accept this!
"Zhenzhu, move out that box of medical books." Su Qingwan said.
Pearl nodded, went to the warehouse, and moved out the box that was at the bottom.
The people in her room kept their mouths shut, so what happened with Su Yuewu just now would not be spread out.
While Su Qingwan was reading the medical book, the people in the first house of the Marquis' Mansion also knew that the people in the third house had bought back all the furniture.
When Liu thought about those things and realized that she had spent all her own money on them, she felt so distressed that she became much more haggard.
But the task of asking Jiang mother and daughter was not yet completed, so he asked someone to take two ornaments that he liked from the public warehouse, and went to Helin Courtyard with Su Zhiyi.
Jiang knew the purpose of their visit, so she took out the letter she wrote to her husband and let Su Zhiyi read it.
The letter only stated what the eldest wife wanted. Su Zhiyi was extremely satisfied after reading it. He immediately wrote a letter to his third brother, explaining the matter. Then he asked someone to take the two letters and send them to Su Zhiru as soon as possible.
After sending the letter, Liu finally came to her senses. She looked around the furniture in Helin Courtyard and suddenly felt heartbroken.
This is all her money!
Su Zhiyi didn't have too many thoughts. After exchanging a few polite words with Jiang, he took Liu away.
Liu wanted Su Zhiyi to return to Tinglan Courtyard, but he went directly to Hua Jiaoniang, which made Liu angry again.
Less than a quarter of an hour after she returned to her room, Nanny Zhou hurried off to call for a doctor.
Su Qingwan sat behind her desk reading medical books. She didn't want to learn from scratch, but wanted to see if there were similar cases in these ancient books.
"Fourth Miss, the eldest lady is ill. She is said to be extremely ill."
