Chapter 1800: Walking into a Trap
Yan Ruyu put away the information and Cui Chong bowed in greeting.
"Princess, I heard from the Lord that you want to know about Li Fangshan?"
Yan Ruyu nodded: "You and Li Fangshan's son are sworn brothers?"
"Yes," Cui Chong nodded, "I have known him for ten years. At that time, I was just a young boy. He was one year younger than me, but his father worked in the army. Although he was not a deputy general, he was also well-known."
"We didn't get along at first. I think he relied on his father's power, and he thought I was a wild man, so we looked down on each other."
"Later, we encountered a bully who was bullying others, and we worked together to take him down."
Cui Chong couldn't help but chuckle when he said this: "Since then, our relationship has changed. We went from disliking each other to appreciating each other, and then we became friends who would die for each other."
"It was he who suggested that I come to work for the government office."
"How did he die?" Yan Ruyu asked.
Cui Chong's smile froze. "He followed his father's orders to break through the siege to deliver a letter, but he was surrounded by the enemy and didn't survive."
"He is the only son, and his father is very sad."
Yan Ruyu thought for a moment and asked, "Then how did Li Fangshan survive?"
"This... should be because reinforcements arrived later and rescued them."
"That means you are not particularly clear about it either?" Yan Ruyu asked.
Cui Chong shook his head: "I really don't know much. I only know that he died, and many of his father's men also died. It was a heavy loss. I don't know much about the details afterwards."
Governor Cao said, "If the princess wants to know about this matter, she can check the military files. There should be records."
"Okay," Yan Ruyu nodded.
After taking the information, Yan Ruyu said goodbye and left.
When she returned to the palace, Feng Shao and Zhao Yan had already returned and were waiting for her in the front hall. There were several packets of medicine on the table.
Feng Shao stepped forward and saluted: "Princess, this is the medicine I got from Xu Congshan."
"How did you change it?"
"It's actually easy. The paper used to wrap the medicine is almost the same. Doctor Sun prepared the medicine, and I arranged for someone to give Xu Congshan and the woman a little surprise. I replaced the medicine when they were not prepared."
"Very good," Yan Ruyu praised, "Did you see where Xu Congshan lives?"
"I see. There are two guards watching over there."
"Also, Doctor Sun is here too. He went to check on Madam's pulse."
As they were talking, Sun Chuchu and the eldest lady came in. The eldest lady was smiling, but Sun Chuchu looked shy.
Yan Ruyu glanced at the two of them and guessed what was going on.
Sure enough, the first lady said happily: "Yu'er, I plan to find a matchmaker for Doctor Sun. Madam Sun is good, has good medical skills, and a good family background. She must find a good girl."
"It just so happens that Madam Li's little daughter is pretty, can read and write, and also likes to read medical books. She is just right."
Yan Ruyu secretly laughed. She didn't know what was wrong with the eldest lady recently. She was so keen on matchmaking.
Among her three sons, only Huo Changxu is suitable, but Huo Changxu has no interest in this regard at the moment, and the eldest lady is at a loss as to where to display her talents.
Her eyes often fell on Yinding and the others, often making them miserable. Now that Sun Chuchu arrived, the eldest lady immediately found a new target.
Sun Chuchu winked at Yan Ruyu and pleaded secretly.
Yan Ruyu suppressed her laughter and said, "Mother, it's useless for you to talk to him about this matter. It's up to the Sun family to decide what the parents want."
The eldest lady nodded: "Yes, you are right."
"I'll go ask Madam Sun later."
Yan Ruyu picked up a pack of medicine and said, "Doctor Sun, please help me take a look. Thank you."
Seeing that they were busy, the eldest lady ordered some snacks and tea and then left.
Sun Chuchu whispered, "Princess, why did you agree?"
"How did I agree? How can it be my turn to agree to your marriage? I mean that marriage is decided by parents, so you have to talk to your parents. This will solve your current dilemma."
"But you said before that marriage is a big deal, and we have to see whether both parties are willing..."
"If I say this now, can you escape? You might be dragged to a blind date right away."
Sun Chuchu immediately shut up and concentrated on looking at the medicine.
"This medicine..." Sun Chuchu frowned, "This medicine is extremely cold, and is a strong medicine for fever. The patient must be strong and healthy."
He took a look at the number of medicine packets and was shocked: "Even a strong man has to use medicine carefully. How can he use so many?"
"This is for pregnant women." Yan Ruyu said.
Sun Chuchu blurted out: "This is simply taking human life lightly! If these drugs are taken, not only will the fetus not be saved, but the pregnant woman will also die."
“This is one body and two lives.”
Everyone's expressions changed.
Feng Xiao felt a little scared, but also felt that he had done a great thing.
Yan Ruyu's face was cold and gloomy. "Okay, Doctor Sun, thank you very much. Don't tell anyone else about this. If you need anything, please help me see someone."
"No problem, I'll follow the princess' instructions then."
After seeing Sun Chuchu off, Yan Ruyu held the medicine bag in her hand, her eyes as cold as ice.
"Princess, this is too vicious. He is a doctor, but he is so cruel to hurt people." Zhao Yan couldn't help but curse, "He is not even worthy of being a human being, but he is still a doctor. This is really unreasonable."
"Go call Lu Hu." Yan Ruyu ordered.
Lu Hu was with Lin Lang. When she heard that Yan Ruyu was looking for her, she hurried over and Lin Lang also accompanied her.
"Princess, what are your orders?"
Yan Ruyu said: "Luhu, I need your help with something."
"Follow the princess' orders."
Lu Hu is relatively timid and weak in character. When she dresses up, she looks like the mistress of a small wealthy family.
After changing her clothes, Linlang also changed out of her usual tight clothes, combed her hair, changed her dress, and dressed up as a maid.
The two went to the inn together.
Long before, Yan Ruyu asked Zhao Yan to open a small courtyard in the Zhou family's old store, and the address was the same as that reserved for Doctor Chunshengtang.
In the evening, the person who was watching near Chunshengtang came back and said that Chunshengtang had closed down and the doctor had also gone home.
Feng Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "He wouldn't dare to go, would he?"
"He will definitely go," Yan Ruyu said, "The people from the escort agency have already found out the news. If they are a group, they won't wait until tomorrow."
Sure enough, in less than half an hour, the person who was watching the doctor brought a letter saying that the doctor had already left.
Yan Ruyu immediately set off with Feng Shao and Zhao Yan, as well as the people arranged by Song Ping.
When they arrived at the inn, Zhao Yan led the way, and the people arranged by Song Ping waited for news outside the inn.
Yan Ruyu entered the courtyard, which had already been lit.
Linlang and Luhu were talking in the room. They spoke in low voices. They were not nervous, but rather excited.
Linlang poked Luhu's fake belly with her finger, and the two of them burst out laughing.
Seeing Yan Ruyu coming, he quickly stood up to greet her.
Yan Ruyu waved her hand: "Sit down, people will be here soon, you have to act more presentable."
After she said that, Lu Hu became a little nervous again.
Just at this moment, voices were heard in the yard.
