Cui Kong had come early in the morning to visit the reading room of Baili Qingchen. The bodyguard carried a report of a thorough investigation of a body at the top of the river that was found yesterday. He thought this information was important to be conveyed to his employer.
“Your Majesty, this corpse is indeed the one who poisoned the Prince Consort. Also this plate, comes from the residence of the prime minister.”
Baili Qingchen received a file report of the results of the investigation from Cui Kong. Yesterday as soon as he got the news, he spent the day at Dali Temple to autopsy the body, then came home at night. When the disease suddenly recurs, Cui Kong may continue the examination process until results are determined.
“They dare to harm people from my residence, outrageous!”
“Then, does that mean Her Highness the Princess is free from charges?”
“You care so much about him, huh?”
Cui Kong only felt sorry for Qingyi being the scapegoat in this case. Clearly the girl knew who had harmed Xiao Junjie, it was clearly the girl herself who caught the hint of the criminal.
However, the girl instead gave her pointers to others, letting others dismantle her while she did not do any defense.
Women's thinking is hard to understand. Cui Kong was more clueless as to Qingyi's way of thinking. Or perhaps, Baili Qingchen also did not understand the thought of the girl. In this world who could understand the path of a Liu Qingyi's mind.
The girl changed completely, breaking the stigma of society saying that the son of a concubine who married into the royal family would only be trash that had a tragic end. In fact, Qingyi was different from them.
“Actually, Her Highness the Princess gave me this hint. Yesterday, he even went to the Prime Minister's residence just to give them a warning,” Cui Kong said.
“Really? Such a rare opportunity, he wasted it just like that?”
Cui Kong nodded. Baili Qingchen began to guess what the girl was actually doing. If he had a lead on the culprit, why would he just shut up and not defend when accused and convicted?
He even handed it to someone else. In addition, Qingyi could have used the clue to dismantle the prime minister's crimes and bring them down, given that her relationship had been very bad with the family.
Baili Qingchen was puzzled by the inconsistency of the girl's attitude. His every action was unexpected and always gave a surprise. They have hatred, but no intention to destroy. Angry, but still care. Liu Qingyi's every act always made her wonder.
“I see Her Highness the Princess just doesn't want to bother. So, he handed it to you,” Cui Kong said.
“In other words, he used me to dismantle the rottenness of his family while he sat sweetly in the western courtyard, so?”
There's no answer. Cui Kong chose silence rather than mispronounce. His master's volatile mood made him realize that he should not speak carelessly.
Especially about the Empress Princess who lately made her master more sensitive. Not to mention the problems of the Prince Consort who just realized after poisoning.
“Your Highness,” Cui Kong forgot something.
“What else?”
“The waiter from the north page told me that yesterday, Her Royal Highness the Princess visited the Prince Empress and brought her some high-quality herbal medicine.”
Baili Qingchen looked at Cui Kong strangely. Is he a bodyguard or a source of gossip? All the events in this mansion were reported to him, as if this Cui Kong was the grand manager of the King Changle mansion alone. The information was so fast, when clearly yesterday the bodyguard was working late at night.
“Go. Watch him for me,” Baili Qingchen's orders.
“Good, Your Highness.”
...***...
Luo Niang returned to visit King Changle's mansion this afternoon. She came to thank Qingyi for helping her overcome her sister's problems the other day. Luo Niang brought some jewelry boxes as a gift for his cousin-in-law.
When he reached the courtyard, he saw clay jugs piled up in the courtyard. Servants and male workers hauled the jugs from the warehouse and collected them in the middle of the spacious courtyard. Not far from there, precisely on the terrace of the main palace, the girl he was looking for was standing watching the work of the servants.
“Your Highness Princess Changle, oh Liu Qingyi, what are you doing?” the tanyanya so up.
“Your partner has a history of stomach acid. He should reduce alcohol consumption.”
“Asam hull?”
Luo Niang stared in disbelief. The jugs contained expensive arak that fermented over the years. His cousin spent a lot of money to get these jugs, his wife instead took them all out and moved them to the main yard. He alone who was usually reckless did not dare to approach the wine storage warehouse, let alone open it.
“Remember! Without my permission, no one should take a single drop from these jugs! Understand?”
“Good, Your Majesty,” the waiter replied simultaneously.
“What do you want to do with these dozens of jugs of wine?” asked Luo Niang.
“I will send him to another residence on the edge of town.”
Qingyi ordered the servants to deliver all the wine to an empty residence on the edge of the city. This was done to reduce the risk of recurrence of stomach acid Baili Qingchen, also to prevent similar events in everyone in this mansion.
From today, he will teach them healthy living patterns and exemplify how they are applied in everyday life.
In ancient times, any disease can be dangerous. The limited availability of drugs and simple medical equipment makes minor illnesses dangerous.
Smallpox and measles alone can cause death, let alone stomach acid and diseases whose danger levels are slightly higher than that. Perhaps the usual can become chronic and the chronic becomes more chronic or very chronic.
If you do not take precautions, then treatment will be useless. Qingyi wanted everyone in this mansion to be healthy and fit, to have strong immunity, until their bodies were not susceptible to disease. The easiest way is to reduce the consumption of foods and drinks that can trigger disease, such as wine.
Although Qingyi was not a doctor, but health science like this she knew. Moreover, he has also read many books about health and medical science in the dimension room. His medical science did not dare he use for fear of becoming malpractice. So, Qingyi could only apply the science of what healthy living was like.
After taking care of matters, Qingyi had just taken Luo Niang to the western courtyard. There, he built a gazebo directly opposite the fish pond. The breezy wind and clear sky is very suitable to be enjoyed in such open space. The size is not so large, but it fits five to seven people.
“You said, A-Chen has a stomach disease called acid reflux. What exactly is disease?” asked Luo Niang.
“In short this way,”
Qingyi explained briefly about the digestive system in the human body and its parts. He also explained about digestive disorders that often occur in humans.
Qingyi was not a doctor, but she had studied about this in biology lessons, also frequently reading several books and scientific articles from health journals. It was easy for him to explain in a simpler way.
“What may the strange disease A-Chen name is this?”
“Maybe. I do not know what strange diseases are often experienced by him.”
“Then, is there a cure?”
Qingyi took a breath, releasing it slowly.
“There. But, it is better to make preventive efforts to reduce the risk of recurrence,” said Qingyi.
Luo Niang who had an honest and open nature could not hide his admiration. She hugged Qingyi tightly, like her embrace to Luo Mingyue. Luo Niang was glad that there was finally someone who could cure his cousin's curse disease, after all these years no one could treat him.
Qingyi smiled awkwardly, even though she did nothing big. He thought Luo Niang's reaction was too excessive.
“Ilham Sky is right! God sent the right person as my cousin's healer!”
It has not been said to be cured because the actual disease is not that, Qingyi said in her heart. Qingyi suddenly remembered something. It's like forgetting someone whose role is quite important in this story.
“Do you know about Princess Yilan? I haven't seen her since the wedding day,” asked Qingyi.
“A-Yi is not in the capital. You know, after he had a fuss at your wedding, the Emperor punished him by locking him up in the palace. A few days ago, he had just left the capital and went to Xizhou.”
“Xizhou? Does the emperor want him to study at the academy?”
Luo Niang nodded. Qingyi realized the groove had changed. In the original story, Princess Yilan remained in the palace and was about to be married to the State of Li, but it did not happen because of the chaos in the palace occurred. Suddenly, Princess Yilan's plot twist is sent to Xizhou Academy to study.
“Sweetest. I still haven't had time to thank him for his defense that day."
