Chapter 184 The General’s Mansion
Ling You shook his head. "No, when they heard you were not here, they said they would come back tomorrow."
"I told him the rules of your consultation. Miss, you will be seeing patients at Jishiditang the day after tomorrow. The man didn't say anything and just left."
Yun Fuling thought that if the other party really wanted to see her, he would definitely come again.
After leaving Jishidiang, Yun Fuling originally planned to return directly to Prince Yi's Mansion.
However, when passing by the Jichunhou Mansion, Yun Fuling suddenly stopped the carriage.
After Yun Fuling took back Jichunhou Mansion, she not only expelled Yun Gansong's family, but also expelled all the servants in the mansion.
Now, there is only an old couple who are old acquaintances with Ling You in the mansion to take care of and clean it.
After Yun Fuling returned to Beijing, she had been living in Prince Yi's Mansion, so this huge Marquis Jichun Mansion was left vacant.
Yun Fuling was originally still worrying about the pharmacy, but suddenly an idea flashed in her mind, and she thought it would be a good idea to use the Jichunhou Mansion to set up a pharmacy.
She took a tour of the Jichunhou Mansion and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that setting up a pharmacy here was a good idea.
This house is empty anyway.
If the pharmacy is set up here, the place is ready and there is no need to build another workshop.
Secondly, this place is not far from Prince Yi’s Mansion, so it is very convenient for Yun Fuling to come here on weekdays.
Yun Fuling immediately circled out a few suitable places and planned to set up the pharmacy there.
Now that we have the place, what we lack is manpower.
The manufacture of pills involves secret recipes, especially Yun Fuling's plan to use this pharmacy in the capital to make pills that are different from those made in Jiangzhou pharmacy.
Therefore, the person who handles this must be trustworthy.
Yun Fuling didn't have any extra trustworthy staff under her command, so she transferred them to the pharmacy.
In this case, the only ones who can be used are the slaves who have signed death indentures.
Slaves who signed a death indenture could be beaten, scolded, and sold at the will of their masters.
With the indenture in hand, generally speaking, few slaves who have signed a death contract dare to betray their masters.
After returning to Prince Yi's Mansion, Yun Fuling immediately called Steward Yuan and instructed:
"Go to the dental office and ask them to send some people over tomorrow. I want to buy some hands."
Butler Yuan was surprised when he heard this.
There are many servants serving in the palace. Logically, Yun Fuling should not be short of people to serve her. Why does she suddenly need to hire someone?
But Steward Yuan was well aware of his duties as a servant.
Servants should do more and talk less, control their mouths, and know what to say and what not to say.
All they have to do is execute their master's decision.
After a brief moment of surprise, Steward Yuan did not ask Yun Fuling what she wanted to do with the person, but said:
"Princess, how many people do you want to send over from the dental clinic? Do you want men or women?"
Yun Fuling had already thought about it, and immediately said, "Forty people, both men and women are welcome."
Butler Yuan took a deep breath. Buying forty people at once was not a small number.
Yun Fuling thought for a moment and said, "You need to be careful in your work. It would be even better if you can read and understand medicine."
Butler Yuan wrote down all the requests made by Yun Fuling and planned to go to the government office in person later.
In this palace, the princess's affairs are of the utmost importance.
Naturally, he would not dare to neglect the matters that the princess had personally ordered.
After finishing the matter of buying people, Yun Fuling was about to ask Butler Yuan to leave when she saw him take out a visiting card from his sleeve.
"Princess, this is a visiting card sent by someone from the General's Mansion today."
It’s the General’s Mansion again!
A hint of surprise flashed across Yun Fuling's eyes. She reached out to take the visiting card and took a look at it.
The post was sent to Yun Fuling in the name of the general's wife.
The wife of the general hopes to visit and meet Yun Fuling.
Yun Fuling thought of what Ling You had said before, that people from the General Zhenguo Mansion had gone to Jishidiang to seek medical treatment, but did not see her.
Another visiting card was sent to Prince Yi's palace.
It seems that the General's Mansion is most likely looking for her for medical treatment.
When Xiao Jingyi came back in the evening, Yun Fuling mentioned this matter to him.
After hearing this, Xiao Jingyi said, "The Chu family of the General's Mansion has guarded the northwest border for generations. In order to protect the peace of the border, countless men have died on the battlefield. They can be said to be the cornerstone of the country."
When mentioning the Chu family, Xiao Jingyi's words were full of respect.
"General Chu is guarding the border. The only people in Beijing right now are Madam Chu and General Chu and his wife."
"The Chu family is loyal only to the monarch and never gets involved in party disputes."
"I have no connection with the Chu family. The Chu family sent a letter of greeting only to seek medical treatment from you."
Although Yun Fuling had done some research, there were many noble families in the capital with complicated relationships, so she didn't know much about the General's Mansion.
Therefore, she did not dare to accept the Chu family's invitation rashly, and planned to make a decision after asking Xiao Jingyi tonight.
After hearing what Xiao Jingyi said, he couldn't help but feel a little more respect for the Chu family.
If the Chu family came to her just for medical treatment, she might as well agree to it.
The next day, Yun Fuling found the visiting card from the General's Mansion, wrote a reply and was about to have someone send it to the mansion when Butler Yuan hurriedly walked in with Ling You.
As soon as Ling You came in, he said anxiously and panickedly, "Miss, the General's Mansion has sent people to Jishitang again, saying that their young lady is in critical condition, and they have kidnapped all the doctors from Jishitang and taken them to the General's Mansion."
Steward Yuan continued, "Princess, someone has come to the General's Mansion and is waiting in the main hall in the front yard."
Yun Fuling immediately said, "Let's go and take a look."
As soon as I arrived at the front yard, I saw an elderly woman walking in circles anxiously.
Seeing Yun Fuling and her group coming over, she knelt down hurriedly to greet them.
"Greetings, Princess. I am the dowry nanny of the wife of the general who guards the country."
"My young mistress is having a miscarriage and is in a very bad condition. I heard that the princess is an excellent doctor, so I sent this old servant to come and see her."
"Madam was going to come here in person, but the young mistress's condition was really bad, so she had to stay and take charge."
Yun Fuling understood her intention and immediately stopped talking nonsense and directly instructed Yaoguang:
"Take my medicine box and go to the General's Mansion."
When Yun Fuling rushed to the General's Mansion, she saw the yard was full of people.
Looking more closely, these people turned out to be famous doctors of varying sizes in the capital.
Three of them were the doctors in charge of Jishidiang.
The three men were at a loss of what to do when they suddenly saw Yun Fuling. Their hearts, which had been hanging in the air, inexplicably settled down.
However, before either side could speak, a heart-wrenching groan of pain was heard from the room.
Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man carrying a medicine box came running out, crawling.
Just as he ran a few steps out of the room, a sword flashing with cold light was suddenly placed on his neck.
The middle-aged doctor felt the coldness and danger on his neck, and his legs trembled with fear, fearing that the other party would directly wipe his neck.
"General Chu, it's not that I don't want to save you, it's just that my medical skills are limited and I can't do anything about your madam's condition!"
