Chen Heng was originally agitated and didn't have much of a good attitude toward the doctor in this town. He had already thought about it. He would take this man away if he appreciated him, and tie him away if he didn't.
But I never expected to hear such a question.
The moment he heard the word Su Luo, Chen Heng's whole body froze.
When he searched for Su Luo to no avail, he heard her name again from here.
He looked at Xu Xing in shock and off guard, frowning, and after a long silence he spoke, his voice a little hoarse, "Do you know Su Luo?"
The words came out with an urgency that he didn't even realize.
Xu Xing looked at him suspiciously.
Chen Heng cleared his throat and his expression returned to normal, "Su Luo is indeed my engaged fiancée. Are Doctor Xu and the Su family old acquaintances?"
Compared with the coldness just now, although Chen Heng's tone now could not be called warm, it was also much more relaxed and somewhat conversational.
When Marquis Zhenning took away the Su Luo siblings, Xu Xing knew it very well. Seeing that he agreed, thinking about the people he had met today, Xu Xing said again: "We are old acquaintances. Su Yunping and I are brothers in the same sect. After all,
, I haven’t seen my niece in five years.”
Jin Bao interjected, "This is really fate. It's just right. The Tai Hospital is eager for talents and wants Dr. Xu to work in Kyoto. You can meet him when you go to Kyoto."
Xu Xing said: "She is in Kyoto?"
Chen Heng's eyelids trembled slightly, and his heart seemed to twist. He was a little out of breath when he asked this question.
Where did Su fall?
He didn't even know where Su fell!
Jinbao said: "Here, where is our Crown Prince's wife if she is not in Kyoto? Doctor Xu, since we still have this relationship, if you go to Tai Hospital in the future, Zhenninghou Mansion will definitely take care of you. You see...
.”
Xu Xing smiled and said: "The prince came suddenly, which really surprised me. I still know how much my own medical skills are, and I hope the prince can give me accurate information. Why does the Tai Hospital suddenly want to recruit people?"
And me?"
Chen Heng twirled his fingers, suppressing the feeling of fear and panic rolling in his heart. He didn't tell the truth to Xu Xing, but just made an excuse.
"The Taiyuan Hospital is now expanding its scale and wants to set up a medical school for private teaching. To this end, it wants to recruit a group of doctors with both political integrity and excellent medical skills. They gave me a list, and I found them according to the list. I didn't want to find anyone.
Arrive at home.
She doesn't have many relatives in Kyoto. Since Dr. Xu is her father's senior brother, he is her relative.
Why don't you go to the capital with us? You can still practice medicine and treat diseases in Kyoto, and you can also keep Luoluo company. It would be better if you have a family, so Luoluo can have a place to move around in the future."
Chen Heng's sincerity in what he said, especially the intimacy with which he spoke every word, calmed Xu Xing's doubts a lot.
Could it be that Su Luo was really in Zhenninghou Mansion, and the one he saw today was just someone with a similar appearance?
It didn't matter whether Xu Xing went to Taiyuan Hospital or not, but he wanted to go to Beijing to see Su Luo.
"I am currently working as a consultation doctor at Huichun Hall. If I want to leave, I have to inform my employer. Can I reply to the prince tomorrow?"
If it were before, Chen Heng would not have the patience to waste time with him, but now that Xu Xing's identity is related to Su Luo, Chen Heng has the patience.
After coming out of Huichun Hall, Jinbao asked Chen Heng whether he was going back to live in the Yamen or finding an inn here to stay.
The night wind blew by with biting force. Chen Heng suddenly raised his eyelids and looked straight at Jin Bao, "Just now, did he ask me: She is in Kyoto?"
Jinbao didn't follow his eldest son's intention for a while, and just nodded, "I asked."
Chen Heng frowned, "He knew that Su Luo and I were engaged, and that my father took Su Luo away back then and hadn't seen her for five years. Why did he ask me if she was in Kyoto?"
Jinbao opened his mouth.
Chen Heng clenched his fists and said, "There is only one possibility. He has seen Su Luo and knows that she is not in Kyoto, but he is not sure if it is Su Luo, so he was testing me just now."
Jin Bao's eyes widened for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, his analysis was correct. Jin Bao hurriedly said: "Then I'll ask him now."
Chen Heng stopped for a moment, pinched his eyebrows and let out a breath, with a tired look on his face and a hint of relaxation, "If you ask him, he may not answer, but it will easily scare the snake. We will talk about it tomorrow. Let's find an inn to stay first."
With the lessons learned from the last time, Chen Heng left someone here to watch Xu Xing, lest he wake up and be gone again.
Xiao Yu had previously told Ping An to find someone to keep an eye on Xu Xing. When he was about to fall asleep, the person suddenly sent a message.
Xiao Yu put on his clothes and sat on the bed, with a sneer on his lips, "This Xu Xing is really not simple. He actually asked Chen Heng to come to his door. No wonder he reacted like that when he saw Su Luo today. He turned out to be Su Yunping's senior brother.
"
Twisting his fingers, Xiao Yu ordered his subordinates, "Avoid Chen Heng's people and find an opportunity to send a message to Xu Xing, asking him to go to Mrs. Gu's house in Chunxi Town to find out who the wife of the eldest son of Zhenninghou Mansion is now.
"
Naturally, Xiao Yu didn't believe a word of the reason Chen Heng told Xu Xing about why he went to Beijing.
If Chen Heng could come to Xu Xing in person, then Xu Xing must have value, and the value is not small, otherwise it would be impossible to bother the prince of Zhenninghou Mansion to come forward in person.
But what the value is, Chen Heng didn't tell, Xiao Yu couldn't guess it for a while.
Narrowing his eyes and pausing for a moment, Xiao Yu suddenly smiled and said to Ping An: "The prefect of Jinnan won't give Chen Heng face today, what do you think will happen to Chen Heng?"
Ping An said: "Given the courage of the Jinnan magistrate, he would not dare to provoke the Zhenninghou Mansion. Chen Heng would not have guessed that the Jinnan magistrate was instigated by someone behind his back."
Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "How many days will it take for Chen Heng to be found on us?"
The family's relationship network is intricate, and the Zhenning Hou Mansion is the most powerful one in the family. Chen Heng has a lot of power and many people, so it is not difficult to find them. Ping An thought for a while, "Two days at most."
"
Xiao Yu laughed and said, "Wrong, let him know early tomorrow morning!"
Ping An has followed Xiao Yu for so many years, and he immediately understood what kind of bad water came out of his prince's belly.
Fighting and attacking cities, pursuing people and attacking people's hearts.
Early the next morning.
Xiao Yu got up early as usual and went to the butcher's place to pick up two buckets of sewer for Su Luo.
When he sent him there, Su Zimu was about to go out, when he opened the door and bumped into Xiao Yu.
"Where are you kid going this early in the morning?" Xiao Yu asked him with a smile when he saw Su Zimu knocking his abdominal muscles so hard that he took two steps back and staggered to his feet.
Su Zimu rubbed his forehead and glanced at Xiao Yu's abdomen, "Brother Xiao, your stomach is too hard. It hurts my head. I'm going to find Zhang Xiaochuan. We agreed that today
We went exploring early in the morning. There was a strange grandpa living at the other end of the street. They said there was a ghost in the yard and we were going to catch the ghost. I had finished writing yesterday’s big calligraphy and put it on the table."
Xiaoyu taught Su Zimu to write two big characters every day, and after he finished writing Xiaoyu, he checked it with him.
Su Zimu rubbed his forehead and ran out from Xiao Yu, and went to Zhang's courtyard in a blink of an eye.
Su Luo was preparing breakfast in the house when she heard the noise outside and looked outside.
Xiao Yu approached her with two buckets of water and took a look at her clothes, "Did you change clothes? Is the one from yesterday sewn?"
Xiaoyu did it on purpose.
Seeing that Su Luo's ears turned red instantly, he was satisfied and put down the two buckets of water.
"I just went to buy water. I heard from the butcher brother that Jinnan Yamen found out that the people who caused trouble on the pier yesterday were people from Zhenninghou Mansion. I heard that their prince came here in person."
