As soon as I entered the door, I saw a man who was weak and struggling to draw water.
Qin Wenyuan hurried over, took the bucket of water from the man, and said with a smile, "Let me do it."
"You...you are..." The man was a little confused.
When he saw Changle, his eyes suddenly widened, "You are, you are the girl that day."
Changle nodded and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Brother Lin, it's me who hurt you and Sister Lin. My husband and I came here today specifically to visit you two."
"As long as you and Sister Lin need anything, my husband and I will do our best to help."
Hearing this, Lin Yong fell silent.
The person in front of him is Changle, and the man is her husband. Doesn't that mean that the person who helps him fetch water is the now well-known Qin Wenyuan, the Divine Doctor Qin?
A man's reputation is like the shadow of a tree. Qin Wenyuan emerged out of nowhere and cured smallpox, which was unprecedented. He brought hope to countless people. Most people could not face him.
The same went for Lin Yong. Even though he knew that his family almost met the King of Hell because of Changle, he still didn't dare to express any dissatisfaction.
Just because of her husband, Qin Wenyuan!
"This is fine."
Lin Yong smiled stiffly, "Dr. Qin cured smallpox for the people of the world, and also cured my husband and I of smallpox. How could we be dissatisfied with you?"
Changle was stunned when he heard this.
The words I prepared on the way here are now of no use.
She thought Lin Yong would blame her, but she didn't expect that he didn't blame her at all, and was even a little scared.
As expected, was it because of my husband's reputation? Was it because of my husband that I was spared the blame I should have received?
Changle sighed. To be fair, she still wanted to be scolded by Lin Yong. At least that would make her feel better.
But now, Lin Yong was so frightened that she knew that this matter was already a castle in the clouds.
Lin Yong didn't dare to scold himself at all because Qin Wenyuan was his husband.
Changle sighed, then took out the gift she had prepared and said with a smile, "Brother Lin, this is a gift from me and my husband, you must accept it."
Lin Yong kept refusing, but in the end he couldn't resist Changle and accepted the gift worth more than one hundred taels of silver .
Most of the gifts were gold and silver jewelry, which were carefully selected by Changle.
Half an hour later, the couple left Lin Yong's house.
Along the way, Changle was worried about gains and losses and didn't talk to Qin Wenyuan.
Qin Wenyuan glanced and asked, "Madam, what's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
Changle shook his head. "No, I just feel a little sad. It was obviously because of me that Brother Lin and his wife contracted smallpox."
"When this group came, I was ready to be scolded, but in the end they greeted us respectfully."
"this……"
Changle didn't continue talking.
And Qin Wenyuan also knew what his wife wanted to express.
He smiled helplessly, knowing why it was so.
This is the power of fame.
If he was just an ordinary person, Lin Yong might really blame him or even curse at him.
And he is not.
He is a hero now, a hero who has dealt with Qianhua. Lin Yong dare not disrespect him for fear of bringing disaster to his family.
Qin Wenyuan is well aware of the benefits of fame, but he does not intend to pursue it excessively.
There are so many things a person can do in his lifetime. Excessive pursuit of power will instead cause one to ignore many beautiful things in the world.
Qin Wenyuan chuckled, rubbed his wife's soft little face with both hands, and said gently: "Then, the day after tomorrow, let's go to a big party and let all your troubles go away."
"Big party?" Changle was extremely confused.
Qin Wenyuan narrowed his eyes and looked at the sky in the distance, "Yeah, it's a big party with a lot of people."
…
Night.
Inside Li Jing's mansion.
Li Jing looked at the dog next to him and asked, "Dr. Qin wants to ask me for help?"
Xu Gou did not dare to disrespect Li Jing, so he bowed slightly and nodded, saying, "Yes, General Li, my young master said that the Ministry of War... the Ministry of War has one of the culprits of the Chang'an smallpox incident ."
"So, he wants the general to help him set up a plan."
"An insider?!"
Li Jing's pupils suddenly shrank. He looked at Xu Gou. He didn't expect that Qin Wenyuan's people would actually suspect that there was a traitor in the Ministry of War.
Li Jing knew Qin Wenyuan's abilities. Titles such as No. 1 Scholar and Miracle Doctor had all contributed to Qin Wenyuan's reputation as a man of extraordinary wisdom.
So since Qin Wenyuan said so...
Could it be that Qin Wenyuan discovered something unusual?
Li Jing's heart also turned cold. If someone really betrayed the Ministry of War and stabbed him in the back, putting Chang'an in danger, he would never let that person go!
He took a deep breath, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Who do you suspect, Mr. Qin?"
Xu Gou shook his head and said, "Young Master is not sure yet, so we need you, General Li, to help set up a plan."
"This game will help my young master recognize who has the problem."
After the words were spoken, the room fell into silence.
After a while, Li Jing exhaled and said, "Okay, since the problem lies with my military department, and Master Qin also has a plan, then I, Li Jing, will cooperate."
The dog was delighted and said, "Thank you, General Li!"
Afterwards, the two began to discuss how to set up this game.
…
Two days later.
In the south of the city, in Tianxian Garden.
Today, Tianxian Garden in the south of the city is very lively. Women with gorgeous clothes, exquisite accessories and unique personalities gather in Tianxian Garden.
This was personally hosted by Mrs. Li Jing, Lady Hong Fu, and the wives of all the military officials were invited to gather in Tianxian Garden.
In Tianxian Garden, maids were busy shuttling back and forth, constantly serving special delicacies.
Some maids were unable to serve food, so they gathered aside, looking at the dignitaries and their wives across from them with envy.
Then they saw a long pavilion with tables on both sides filled with delicious food. The wives and daughters of the officials of the Ministry of War, as well as the wives and daughters of officials of the fourth rank and above, were all sitting behind the tables.
At this moment, people are whispering and talking to familiar people. Even with unfamiliar people, they become familiar with each other after a few words.
At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out: "Her Royal Highness the Princess has arrived."
All the ladies and girls stood up at this moment and bowed slightly, "Greetings, Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Princess Gaoyang, dressed in a gorgeous palace dress, walked to the main seat surrounded by palace maids and eunuchs.
Princess Gaoyang swept her phoenix eyes over the crowd, raised her hands slightly, and said, "No need to be polite, everyone. It is the time when orange flowers are in full bloom, and there are many rare flowers sent from foreign countries. I thought of taking the opportunity of Madam Hongfu's gathering to bring them for you to enjoy..."
not far away.
Inside another pavilion.
There were two figures standing in a place that these women did not notice.
Qin Wenyuan was wearing a black robe, looking calmly into the distance. There were flowers blooming all around him and beautiful women singing in the distance, all colorful. Only Qin Wenyuan, wearing a black robe, seemed a little out of place.
Xu Gou followed behind Qin Wenyuan and also looked at the opposite side.
He looked at it for a long time, and then couldn't help but said: "Master, could it be that... if we just keep watching, we will get clues about Yu Heng?!"
Qin Wenyuan turned his gaze away from Princess Gaoyang and said calmly, "Won't you know after you take a look?"
"that……"
Xu Gou smiled helplessly and said, "Master, what are you looking at?"
He and Qin Wenyuan had been here for a while, but they had no idea what to see.
"Look at the people."
"who?"
"woman."
“…”
Xu Gou was slightly stunned and couldn't help but look at Qin Wenyuan.
His expression was a little strange. "Master, this is impossible? The young lady is here today. If you want to cheat, at least you should choose a suitable time."
"And today, I don't know what happened. General Li's wife clearly didn't invite Princess Gao Yang, but she came anyway."
"Master, I think this might be an opportunity."
The words fell.
Qin Wenyuan's eyelids twitched. He sighed and immediately explained, "Ahem, Xu Gou, you've thought too much about this matter. Don't think too much about it."
"Also, the rumors about Princess Gaoyang are not good, so don't mention them anymore."
Now, Xu Gou was even more confused.
My own young master asked me to find Li Jing and let Li Jing set up such a plan, inviting only women. What is his purpose?
At this time, Princess Gaoyang had already gotten up with the women and was strolling around in the Tianxian Garden.
The princess was a princess after all, and her every move was watched by the wives of other military officials.
Qin Wenyuan's gaze also followed them, but in his eyes, there were only three people.
Qian Ming, wife of Zhao Shun and Zhou Changwen.
The status of these three people is not very high, and is lower than that of others, so they do not communicate much with others.
Moreover, they are all wives of officials from the Ministry of War, so they should know each other. At this moment, they are gathered together, laughing and talking about something.
Qian Ming's wife was dressed in gorgeous clothes, with a smile on her face and her chin slightly raised. It can be seen that she must be an extremely confident and outspoken person.
Even though he was surrounded by people of higher status than her, he was not very cowardly.
But Zhao Shun and Zhou Changwen's wives are just the opposite.
The two of them seemed a little restrained, and the smiles on their faces were a little unnatural. It was obvious that they were not used to such occasions.
Qin Wenyuan narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "Xu Gou, go and prepare according to the plan. Remember to be quick and don't let anyone find out your whereabouts, so as not to alert the enemy."
Xu Gou nodded, "Don't worry, Master, this is my specialty. But... but Master, what are you going to do?"
"I?"
Qin Wenyuan smiled slightly, raised the corner of his mouth and said: "It's a rare opportunity to attend such a good occasion, and the princess is here, so I will naturally take my wife to see what is beyond the world and let her broaden her horizons."
"in addition……"
Qin Wenyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the three women, and said lightly: "I also have some things that need to be confirmed."
After saying that, he walked directly outside the pavilion. Changle was also waiting for Qin Wenyuan.
Seeing that Qin Wenyuan was coming soon, Changle withdrew her gaze from the distant banquet and asked, "Husband, did you bring me here just to attend such a grand banquet?"
Qin Wenyuan laughed, "Yes, Madam, you haven't been in a good mood recently, so I just brought you here to relax."
"Relax?" Changle laughed angrily, "Let's go. We... our identities, even though you are the top scholar this year, you don't hold an official position, so you are still not qualified to enter such an occasion, right?"
"and……"
Gao Yang, she is there too...
Changle is a little afraid of her sister Gao Yang, as she is afraid that she will reveal her identity.
As for the wives of other officials from the Ministry of War, Changle was not very afraid, because she had lived in her own palace for a long time and never left the house, so she had never met them at all.
Therefore, this time, Changle was only afraid of her younger sister Gao Yang.
At this time, Qin Wenyuan asked: "Madam, I have already solved the identity problem you mentioned. What was it you wanted to say just now?"
Changle shook her head. "No, it's nothing. Since my husband has decided to go, I will accompany you. I just don't know why my husband suddenly wants to attend this kind of banquet."
This banquet was attended by women of distinguished status, so Changle was somewhat concerned.
She was afraid that her husband's soul would be seduced away by one of them.
After all, her husband is so outstanding that Changle always feels uneasy.
While Changle was daydreaming, Qin Wenyuan took Changle's hand and walked towards the banquet in the distance, saying with a smile: "Madam, you don't know yet, right? I specially asked Xu Gou to ask General Li to help organize this banquet."
Changle was stunned, "Why?"
Qin Wenyuan smiled softly, "Because, through this banquet, I can quickly catch Yuheng who caused you to contract smallpox."
After the words fell, Changle was completely stunned.
Like Xu Gou, she didn't understand how a banquet could be related to Yuheng .
Given Yuheng's mysterious image, there's no way she could be related to the wife of an official from the Ministry of War, right?
Could it be that...
Yuheng, he is actually a woman?
Changle's thoughts gradually drifted away.
At the same time, inside Tianxian Garden, before Qin Wenyuan and his wife approached them, someone spotted Qin Wenyuan, a green spot among thousands of flowers.
"Is there anyone coming?"
"Who is that?"
"What a handsome boy."
"That seems to be this year's top scholar, Qin Wenyuan."
"What? The number one scholar? And the one who cured smallpox?"
Qin Wenyuan's name is not only widely spread among the people, but also legendary among officials.
After all, in just a few days, he not only cured smallpox, but also won the title of top scholar among tens of thousands of students competing for it. With such a great reputation, it would be difficult not to be remembered.
As wives of officials, they are extremely aware of the difficulty involved.
Therefore, people talked a lot about Qin Wenyuan in private, and often spoke with envy.
Word spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and finally these ladies and young ladies all knew Qin Wenyuan's name.
When the unmarried ladies saw that Qin Wenyuan was so young and handsome, their eyes lit up.
