Chapter 512: His Little Girl

Zhou Linghuai said, “Marquis Changxing and the others are all high-ranking ministers in the court. They will be executed at noon today. Those of a lower rank and their relatives will be executed at the entrance of the market tomorrow. As the King of Zhouli’s case involves a lot of people, it will take at least three days to kill them all. Those sentenced to exile will be sent to the market entrance to watch the punishment before they set off for Shangyang Castle. It will take at least three to four days.”

The princes and ministers were to be executed at the Meridian Gate, and the courtiers had to go to watch the punishment. This was also a place that the courtiers had to pass through every morning court session. It was meant to warn and intimidate the other courtiers.

As for the rest, they had to let the commoners watch the punishment at the entrance of the market and serve as a warning to others.

Yu Youyao sighed slightly. “The weather is getting colder. Looks like the charity hall has to be done quickly.”

This winter was much colder than previous years.

It had been snowing since Laba. It had been snowing for three to four days in a row. The snow had not stopped, and the sky was dark. It seemed that the snow would not end anytime soon.

Zhou Linghuai knew that she felt bad. “The courtyard is already done. With a little repair, people can stay there. The subsequent repairs can be done slowly.

You’ve already done very well.”

Yu Youyao was not a passive person. Once she decided what to do, she would not be able to delay it for a moment.

On Laba, she had mentioned that she wanted to set up a charity hall. The next day, she found someone to go to the east of the city to buy a relatively old courtyard house and even found a craftsman to repair it.

Yu Youyao nodded and asked, “After the King of Zhouli case is over, will Li Qiguang’s case also be completed?”

Li Qiguang’s crime of treason was even worse than the crime of the Marquis of Changxing.

Zhou Linghuai shook his head. “What to do with Li Qiguang’s case depends on the progress of Song Xiuwen’s case. It will probably be delayed until after the new year.”

Yu Youyao understood immediately. “In the case of the King of Zhouli, we just have to find out the truth and give the world an explanation. The conspiracy often involves a lot of people and threatens the imperial power. If we don’t investigate thoroughly, the emperor won’t be at ease, and the ministers won’t be able to answer to the emperor.”

From the looks of it, Li Qiguang’s case was probably even more serious than the King of Zhouli’s case.

Who knew how many more people would die.

Yu Youyao suddenly felt cold. “Father set off for Zhejiang in October. It’s been

more than a month. Other than the long journey, I think there should be some progress on Song Xiuwen’s case.”

Yu Zongzheng had only sent a peace letter home at the beginning of November, but there had been no news so far.

Yu Youyao was not worried about Yu Zongzheng. She was worried that there would be complications that would implicate the Yu Residence.

Zhou Linghuai raised his hand and tightened the fox fur collar around her neck. “The case should be about done. In the next few days, news should reach the capital.”

Yu Youyao was a little surprised. “So soon?

Logically speaking, Song Xiuwen’s case involved a lot of people. It would probably not be so easy to deal with it quickly and completely.

Zhou Linghuai smiled. “Didn’t you suggest for your father to bring Song Mingzhao to the south because you wanted to use his identity as the heir of the Marquis to settle this matter as soon as possible to avoid involving too many people? Song Zhao became famous and was taken in as a disciple by Mr. Xian

Yun. His reputation is not unearned.”

Yu Youyao pursed her lips and did not say anything else.

However, she tightened the velvet blanket on her cousin’s legs. “Cousin’s leg disease has just recovered a little. You can’t stay outside for long. You can only stay outside three times a day at most, and each time, you can only drink a cup of tea at most.”

The ointment was used externally, and the Myrrh wine was consumed internally. With Uncle Sun’s acupuncture treatment, Cousin’s leg was indeed much better.

Over the past few days, when Cousin ate, his appetite was a little bigger than before. His face also had a little color, unlike the sickly and pale look in the past.

This also made Yu Youyao heave a sigh of relief. She no longer restrained her cousin from going out like before.

There was a charcoal fire in the house. Staying inside all the time was not good for the body.

She did not want to mention Song Mingzhao, and Zhou Linghuai would not say anything else. He only nodded. “Okay!’

He recalled that on the afternoon of the Laba Festival, after returning to The Green House, Uncle Sun had come to take his pulse. When he realized that his pulse had calmed down, he asked about the situation.

Naturally, he mentioned the ointment and Myrrh wine.

Uncle Sun hurriedly took some from him for research.

Early the next morning, Uncle Sun came to find him excitedly. “Frankincense is good at penetrating the acupoints and regulating Qi. Myrrh is good at circulating blood. When used in combination, it opens up the internal organs and circulates the essential medicine in the meridians. It can enter the heart, kidneys, liver, and spleen, and treat all the pain in the limbs and joints. It’s an essential medicine for injuries.”

It was said that one could become a doctor after being ill for a long time. Although Zhou Linghuai was not proficient in medicine, he had heard such words many times and naturally understood what they meant. “I used it twice last night. My leg did not hurt as much as before.”

Uncle Sun’s expression was very complicated. “That’s right. Although the ointment is only made with herbs, its curative effect is better than many others. I’ll use Angelica, Pill Ginseng, Frankincense, and Myrrh to make a lively spirit pill for you. It’ll be applied externally and taken internally. It’ll nourish your Qi, blood, and spirit. Your leg illness will be mostly cured then.”

As for the remaining half, he still had to work on his internal acupoints to completely recover his legs.

Uncle Sun concocted a lively spirit pill and prescribed a new prescription for him. He used Myrrh and Frankincense in it, and the acupuncture treatment and medicinal bath were also adjusted.

In just three to four days, there was a clear improvement.

After that, Uncle Sun sighed with emotion and pity. “Why did this Eldest Miss

Yu born as a woman? Forget being a woman, why is she an official’s daughter? If she’s just an ordinary woman, with her talent in medicine, she will definitely be able to inherit the mantle of the Sun family’s King of Medicine. In the future, she might even be able to bring the name of the Sun family’s King of Medicine to greater heights.”

He was not interested in foreign things. It was not that he looked down on them, but he felt that he did not even understand the medical skills passed down from his ancestors. So why would he waste so much effort on foreign things?

He also knew the effects of Myrrh and Frankincense.

However, there were countless medicinal herbs that could achieve the same healing effect. So why would he take the extra step to study other things?

From this, it could be seen that he was much inferior to Yu Youyao.

Zhou Linghuai smiled. Unknowingly, his little girl had already grown to this extent.

Yu Youyao also smiled. “Let’s go into the house quickly. I’ve been studying for the past few days on using Myrrh and Frankincense to make medicinal cuisine. I made a kind of Frankincense cream cake. It tastes a little similar to the Eight Treasures Cake. It’s a little bitter. Because it’s added with Frankincense, it also has a hint of milk fragrance. I wonder if Cousin will like it.”

Knowing that Myrrh and Frankincense were good for her cousin’s health, she spent a lot of time and energy studying food and medicinal tea.

Zhou Linghuai smiled. “More haste less speed. Your medicine is already great.”

Yu Youyao pouted and did not say anything else. Of course, she knew this logic, but she couldn’t care less. She only wanted her cousin to get better quickly so that he would no longer have to suffer from leg problems..
