Chapter 305 You don’t want to make a big deal out of this, do you?
Jiang Tunan was stunned at first, then he laughed foolishly.
"I am just a worthless person, I will die if I die, but if something happens to me in the Prince Guangping's mansion for no reason, it will affect the reputation of the princess."
Princess Guangping snorted coldly, agreeing with Jiang Tunan's statement.
"You came here today just to tell me this?"
Jiang Tunan straightened his expression.
"I wonder if Princess has heard today that the Imperial Medical Bureau has found the Nine Needles to Restore Vitality?"
Princess Guangping's expression was obviously frozen for a moment. Although she adjusted herself quickly, Jiang Tunan still caught it.
"This princess doesn't care about these things."
Princess Guangping glanced at Jiang Tunan lightly.
"So you want to tell this to me today?"
"Yes."
Jiang Tunan admitted it very frankly. Princess Guangping looked unhappy and said in a cold voice,
"what do you want to say in the end!"
Jiang Tunan pretended not to notice Princess Guangping's emotions and said to himself,
"Princess, this student has chosen the Honglu Temple and the Imperial Medical Bureau as elective courses, but now because of the Nine Needles of Rejuvenating Yang, the Imperial Medical Bureau can no longer admit anyone. This student can't take this course. Will it affect his grades?"
Although Jiang Tunan spoke with an innocent look on her face, she was secretly paying attention to the expression of Princess Guangping. When she saw that Princess Guangping secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she became 90% certain of her previous guess.
"So it's about this matter. Don't worry. Special cases will be handled specially. The Girls' School won't make things difficult for you. Besides, you assisted in treating Prince Dayin and cured the heir siblings before. This is enough for you to get a good grade in the Imperial Medical Bureau's courses."
Jiang Tunan showed a bright smile on his face.
"Then I feel relieved. However, the princess doesn't care about the matter of the Nine Needles to Restore Yang, but she also knows that I cured Yu Niang?"
Princess Guangping could no longer hold back. Just as she was about to explode, Jiang Tunan spoke again.
"But Princess should also be concerned about the matter of the Nine Needles to Restore Yang. I heard that when Daxing and Dayin were at war, it was thanks to this miraculous acupuncture technique that time was delayed for Doctor Wen to develop an antidote."
"It seems that Prince Guangping also participated in the battle. If it weren't for the Nine Needles of Rejuvenating Yang, Prince Guangping might have been ambushed by the evildoer."
"It's really amazing. The Nine Needles of Restoring Yang saved many people at that time. It's a pity that most of them died in the battle. Otherwise, I really want to ask them what their experience of the Nine Needles of Restoring Yang was like."
The more Jiang Tunan spoke, the uglier Princess Guangping's expression became.
"You know it now."
"what?"
Princess Guangping's sudden words stunned Jiang Tunan.
"You know the secret of the Nine Needles for Restoring Yang."
The tone of Princess Guangping's words was not one of question but of affirmation.
Jiang Tunan knelt down in front of Princess Guangping without thinking.
"Please forgive me, Princess!"
Princess Guangping suppressed her shock and calmly spoke to the maid beside her,
"You all stand down."
Jiang Tunan gave Chunhua a reassuring look, and Chunhua had no choice but to leave with the others.
"When did you know that? How much did you know?"
Jiang Tunan thought about it before speaking.
“Most of it is guesswork.”
"Oh?"
Facing the scrutinizing eyes of Princess Guangping, Jiang Tunan answered with gritted teeth,
"I found it strange when Yu Niang was already terminally ill but still refused to take out the Nine Needles to save herself."
"I think the person is going to die soon. What's the point of keeping the Nine Needles to Restore Yang? When the time comes, the person will be at the mercy of others. It may even lead to the loss of the inheritance of this secret technique."
"Yu Niang loves her brother Xiao Wu very much. If Yu Niang is gone, all the malice will be focused on Xiao Wu. I think this is something Yu Niang doesn't want to see."
Princess Guangping narrowed her eyes.
"Go on."
Jiang Tunan relaxed a little.
"The main reason is that I only know a little bit about medicine. The treatment of all diseases in this world requires a basis for diagnosis, but the Nine Needles for Restoring Yang can ignore these conditions, so I think it's fake."
"The last one was the war that year. The Gao family used the Nine Needles to restore yang to save many soldiers. I found that most of the soldiers who were saved were the confidants of the general who led the army at that time and his subordinates."
"The strange thing is that all of these people who received the acupuncture died on the battlefield without exception. However, these people were the bravest force in the army. Even if they were used as the vanguard, it would be impossible for the entire army to be wiped out."
"And the only thing they have in common is..."
Princess Guangping sighed deeply, with endless sorrow in her eyes.
"I had expected this day to come."
Jiang Tunan lowered his head and looked at the floor, but Princess Guangping did not speak again after saying this.
"Ugh."
Jiang Tunan sighed following Princess Guangping's mood. Although she didn't know why she sighed, she could not say anything except sigh in the current atmosphere.
"Yes, so I was hoping for the best, but I didn't expect you to find out."
Jiang Tunan smiled awkwardly. In fact, this flaw was very obvious, but why it had not been discovered before was because this should have been a clue belonging to the heroine.
According to the plot, Su Xiaoxiao accidentally learned the true secret of the Nine Huiyang Needles by getting close to Yu Niang and her brother. Then Su Xiaoxiao used her discovery in the war that year to prove that the Nine Huiyang Needles were the real cause of death of those soldiers.
Then everyone attacked together and blamed the deaths of those soldiers on the Gao family. Even though the clan had no descendants, they would dig up their bodies and whip them.
Su Xiaoxiao waved the banner of justice and stood on the moral high ground to condemn the Gao family and the Nine-Huiyang Needles, but everyone forgot that even without the Nine-Huiyang Needles, those poisoned soldiers would not have survived.
From a certain perspective, the Nine Needles of Restoring Yang extended their lifespan by three days, allowing them to die without being tortured by poison.
Moreover, Jiang Tunan clearly saw in his dream that the Gao family performed the Nine Needles to restore yang, and it was clearly authorized by the general who led the troops at that time. At that time, all the soldiers who received the acupuncture also signed a life and death agreement. Everyone did it voluntarily.
Jiang Tunan was not sure how many people knew the inside story of that year, but what was certain was that Prince Guangping was absolutely aware of it. He was standing by and saw it clearly. As a result, in the plot, the Gao family was criticized, but he disappeared.
"What's your expression?"
Perhaps Jiang Tunan was thinking too deeply, and he looked like he hated evil.
"Princess, I am worried about you. If the matter of the Nine Needles of Restoring Yang is discovered, I am afraid that both the prince and you will be criticized."
Jiang Tunan spoke earnestly.
"The prince became famous in that battle. If the world knew about this, it would at least affect the prince's prestige among the people, and at worst shake the morale of the army, giving Dayin an opportunity to disrupt our great country."
Anyway, no matter what, don't try to blame the Gao family.
Princess Guangping heard Jiang Tunan's words and felt that they made sense, but she couldn't lose her composure in front of a junior, so she lowered her voice and said,
"I know all these things, but I didn't realize that you can think of many things."
Jiang Tunan responded timidly.
"The princess helped me in the Discipline Hall a few days ago, so I want to repay the princess to the best of my ability."
"It is precisely because of all this that I feel that the princess does not want this matter to become a big deal."
"It's a pity that I couldn't stop Miss Su Er. She had the Crown Prince by her side. Obviously, this matter didn't need to be said in public..."
"If it were me, I would have told my elders in the family secretly after knowing these things, and I would definitely not publicize them like she did."
Jiang Tunan suddenly covered his mouth as if frightened.
"Ah, I shouldn't have said that."
Princess Guangping frowned.
"Are you saying that Su Xiaoxiao also knows these things?"
Jiang Tunan spoke hesitantly.
"I'm not sure. After all, Miss Su is so kind, it must be easy to ask her anything. Unlike me, I can only guess."
Princess Guangping took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm.
"You mean, those words came from the brother and sister?"
Jiang Tunan's eyelids twitched suddenly, and he thought to himself, this is terrible, she just wanted to drag Su Xiaoxiao into this as well, and it would not happen that Princess Guangping would still take her anger out on Yu Niang and her brother in the end.
"I don't know whether Miss Su Er asked the question from the siblings."
Jiang Tunan pretended to be sad.
"If I had known that this matter would cause the princess so much trouble, I would not have treated the little girl. If she had died, would there not be so many problems?"
Jiang Tunan secretly looked up at Princess Guangping's expression. As long as she had the intention to kill him, Jiang Tunan would immediately go back to find the people from Zhuying Pavilion to implement another plan.
"Hmph, you think I'm a treacherous and cunning person. Although my hands are stained with blood, I won't take human life so lightly. Don't let me hear these words of yours again."
Jiang Tunan heaved a sigh of relief, and his expression finally became more sincere.
"Princess, you are wise. I am just being mean."
Princess Guangping seemed to have noticed something. She put the fish food in her hand aside and looked at Jiang Tunan kneeling in front of her with interest.
"The real reason you came here today is actually for those two siblings, right?"
Princess Guangping folded her arms across her chest.
"You only said that if these things were exposed, it would affect the reputation of the prince, but don't forget that it was the Gao family who performed the acupuncture personally. If they really want to investigate, they will not be able to escape unscathed."
"My husband is a prince after all. Even if people really have complaints against him, they dare not bring it to his eyes. But it's hard to say about those two ordinary people. There's no guarantee that someone won't divert their hatred to them."
"Okay, I was almost tricked by you."
Jiang Tunan's tone was no longer as relaxed as before, and his expression became more serious.
"Princess, the Gao family has been under pressure from all sides for so many years because they have been keeping this secret. Now they have no direct descendants. Isn't this enough?"
Princess Guangping was speechless for a moment and looked away evasively.
"Princess, I came here today for Yu Niang and Xiao Wu. I just hope they can live well."
""They lost their parents and fled at an age when they should have been growing up. Yu Niang was captured by the big yin people. Even under torture, she didn't reveal a single word. When the twelve-year-old girl was rescued, there was not a single piece of good flesh on her body."
"If at that time, Yu Niang told the secret of the Nine Needles of Restoring Yang to the people of Dayin because she couldn't bear the punishment, would Daxing still be so peaceful today?"
"If the Gao family hadn't used the Nine Rejuvenating Needles, would the Daxing army have been able to hold out until Doctor Wen developed the antidote?"
"I don't want to use this to morally blackmail others. I just hope that Princess can put herself in their shoes. The Gao family has never done anything wrong to the people of Daxing. Now the Gao family only has these two children left. If we sacrifice them for this, how can we be worthy of the Gao family members who died?"
Jiang Tunan's eyes were red, and Princess Guangping was silent for a long time before she let out a heavy breath.
"These are all debts owed back then."
Princess Guangping's tone softened.
"Go back. I will do my best to protect them. This is what my husband and I should do. You are right."
Jiang Tunan bowed solemnly to Princess Guangping.
"I thank the princess on behalf of Yu Niang and Xiao Wu."
Princess Guangping smiled and shook her head.
"If you have anything to say, just say it directly. It gives me a headache to hear you beat around the bush. You can even say something like repaying my kindness. As the dean of the girls' school, I won't take sides. Don't ruin my reputation."
Jiang Tunan also smiled calmly.
"The princess did not take sides in the Discipline Hall, which was the greatest help to me."
Princess Guangping was suddenly stunned, and then murmured,
"I feel like I'm really getting to know you today."
Jiang Tunan did not respond to this sentence, but bowed respectfully.
"The student is leaving."
......
When Qi Guanming was done with school, he heard from the servant who came to pick him up that Jiang Tunan had gone to Prince Guangping's mansion today, so he hurried back home and happened to meet Jiang Tunan who had just come out.
"Miss Jiang!"
When Qi Guanming saw that Jiang Tunan really appeared in his house, he immediately jumped out of the carriage with a smile on his face.
"Sir."
Jiang Tunan greeted politely.
"Is the Imperial College dismissed so early today?"
Qi Guanming stood beside Jiang Tunan and explained happily,
"Yes, because Master Zhang and Master Leng had a quarrel today, and Master Luo fanned the flames, so in the end, we had to end the get out of class first."
Jiang Tunan was shocked. Is it possible to play like this?!
This is too sloppy!!
And why doesn’t this kind of good thing happen when she is in class? As soon as she is on vacation, everyone leaves school early.
"Oh, right. Master Zhang is the head of the Discipline Hall. Master Leng liked to let students sit together according to his wishes during class. Master Zhang saw it and thought it was not decent, so the two of them started arguing."
Qi Guanming saw Jiang Tunan's surprised expression and guessed that Jiang Tunan might be interested in this matter, so he explained it in detail again.
"At that time, Master Luo was passing by, and the two asked Master Luo what he thought. Master Luo said that one of them was teaching without thinking, and the other was a little power-hungry and would find fault everywhere whenever he was unhappy."
Jiang Tunan: I have always recognized Luo Shengtai’s offensive power, he just dislikes everyone equally.
"I now understand why everyone, whether they are officials or not, is so afraid of Master Luo."
Qi Guanming nodded in agreement.
"Yeah yeah."
