First-rank palace maid Su Jixiang

Chapter 376: Miaoshou Pavilion breaks out of the world

Zhou Chengjun left Mangcheng six days later.

He still investigated Xie Yingfeng as a routine matter, but because Xie Yingfeng had complete evidence, the original verdict was upheld.

Cui Yushan originally thought that Zhou Chengjun could use Xie Yingfeng as a tool, and he felt a little smug a few days ago. However, after the result of Zhou Chengjun's trial came out, he was furious. He went to Zhou Chengjun once. When he went there, he was arrogant as if he was going to seek justice. When he left, his face was pale, and he didn't know what Zhou Chengjun said to him.

The case was over and Zhou Chengjun set off back to the capital.

He returned to Beijing with his former subordinate, who is now his prisoner.

Before Zhou Chengjun arrived in the capital, Emperor Longchang had already received Zhou Chengjun's secret letter.

The Prince of Chenliu's spies sneaked into the capital, which made Emperor Longchang feel uneasy.

He was extremely cautious, fearing that Prince Chenliu would hire someone to stir up trouble, but now the thing he didn't want to see finally happened.

Zhang Peng was sent back to the capital and handed over to Emperor Longchang's personal guards for trial.

Zhang Peng refused to say anything at first, but later Emperor Longchang arrested all his wife and children and punished them one by one, and he finally couldn't help but confess.

Emperor Longchang was furious.

But now his foundation is unstable, and he can't do anything to Prince Chenliu. He can only send more spies to investigate Prince Chenliu's territory.

At the same time, he was also carefully investigating the spies of Prince Chenliu in the capital. As Wei Ling expected, he really had no time to take care of Mangcheng.

Not only do I not have the time to care about it, I also don’t dare to care about it.

After all, if Wei Ling was forced by him to join forces with Prince Chenliu again, then his throne would be in real danger!

After careful consideration, Emperor Longchang could only comfort Wei Ling.

In this way, the days passed little by little, and in the blink of an eye, it was already the fourth year since Su Jixiang and Wei Ling got married in Mangcheng.

After several years of recuperation, Mangcheng has developed into what Su Jixiang had imagined. The new urban area has been built, and the newly reclaimed fields of the Black Tiger Army around Mangcheng are endless.

Now Mangcheng not only grows sorghum and wheat, but also crops such as corn, sweet potatoes and soybeans.

After three years of hard work, the warehouses of the Black Tiger Army in Mangcheng were already filled with grain.

The Black Tiger Army has a very high prestige in the hearts of the people. The idea of seeking help from the Black Tiger Army when in trouble has taken root in the hearts of the people of Mangcheng, and several surrounding cities and counties are also fascinated by the Black Tiger Army.

The wharf outside Mangcheng has been built, and the river that was widened based on the original river channel has also been completed. Now the water system is spread all around Mangcheng, and Mangcheng and other places can be transported by shipping outside of winter!

Su Jixiang's roads also covered all the counties and towns under Mangcheng, and the speed of transporting troops and food increased several times compared to before.

Selections are conducted every year among the Black Tiger Army of Mangcheng, and the products made by the selected craftsmen become more and more exquisite.

Su Jixiang also built the Caidiexuan grocery store, which sold daily necessities such as soap.

Su Jixiang's glass canned fruits have become a hot and valuable commodity in the surrounding city-states and the Daxie Dynasty.

Soap also began to enter the capital city through land transportation and became the new favorite of the wealthy families in the capital city.

Miaoshou Pavilion is a medical clinic and pharmacy jointly established by Su Jixiang and Li Yuzhu. It is manned by Zhou Ziqi and specializes in treating difficult and complicated diseases and selling some ready-made medicines.

It is a coincidence that Miaoshou Pavilion was not well-known when it was first established, and it only relied on Zhou Ziqi's golden signboard to make a living.

The son of the county magistrate of the neighboring prefecture of Mangcheng accidentally fell off his horse and had his leg broken by the horse behind him. It was so tragic that even the bones were stepped on. No doctor nearby dared to take this case. This was the only son of the county magistrate of Shangluo County, and he treated his son like the apple of his eye. If he was cured, he would naturally be the benefactor of the county magistrate, but if he was not, he would probably lose his head.

Seeing that no one dared to rescue the son, County Magistrate Li Cheng forced the famous doctor under his command to come and treat the son. The doctor came with courage, but when he saw how miserably the son of the County Magistrate had fallen, he fainted on the spot out of fright.

Li Cheng had no choice but to post a notice, promising a generous reward to anyone who could rescue the young master.

No one dared to move Mr. Li's legs, which also became infected. He had a high fever and was about to die.

It happened that Wei Ling took Su Jixiang to Shangluo County for a trip and saw this post. After weighing it, Su Jixiang took the post and sent someone to send Zhou Ziqi from Mangcheng.

In fact, Su Jixiang had no confidence when he saw the miserable condition of Master Li, but this was an opportunity. Shangluo was the only way to the capital. If he could establish a good relationship with the governor of Shangluo County, it would be much easier to do things in the future.

Fortunately, she had penicillin in her hand. Mr. Li's wound was too seriously infected. It was not impossible to treat it with Chinese medicine, but Mr. Li might not be able to wait that long.

Even if Mr. Li's illness cannot be cured, penicillin can bring his life back from the brink of death.

This penicillin has been tested since it was developed, and its purity and effectiveness are very good!

Zhou Ziqi was sent to Shangluo County that night, bringing penicillin for intramuscular injection into Master Li's legs. He also brought tools to clean the rotten flesh on Master Li's legs, washed them with saline, and then fixed the bones with steel nails as a last resort.

This was also the first time he performed this operation on a living person. In the past, he would go to Yizhuang to find unclaimed bodies of people who had died in a foreign country to practice dissection.

But I don't know whether Mr. Li was lucky and should not die, or whether Zhou Ziqi's medical skills were really amazing. Of course, penicillin also worked. Within two hours, Mr. Li's high fever subsided and he regained consciousness. Although his wound was very painful, it seemed that his life was safe.

This made Li Cheng, the governor of Shangluo County, so happy that he almost knelt down to Zhou Ziqi and Wei Ling and his wife!

After Master Li's condition stabilized, Li Cheng transported him to Mangcheng in a horse-drawn carriage. Because Zhou Ziqi said it would be better for him to recuperate in Miaoshou Pavilion in Mangcheng, Li Cheng decided to send his son over.

There is a ward inside Miaoshou Pavilion, and Master Li became the first patient in this inpatient department!

With everyone's careful care, Master Li's legs were actually reconnected. A month later, he was able to stand up on his own. Although his two legs were slightly different in length, being able to pull a dying man back from the brink of death and restore his broken legs to this state was already a miraculous feat.

Therefore, with the help of Master Li's case studies and Li Cheng's vigorous promotion, Miaoshou Pavilion has completely made a name for itself in the entire Northwest region!
