Chapter 44 County Captain

"Captain Chen, please be patient. We'll find out when we get to the house."

Butler Li pushed Chen Xuan's hand back and did not accept the fifty taels of silver.

After saying that, Butler Li closed his eyes and rested, as if he didn't want to disturb me. Chen Xuan couldn't talk to me and disturbed him. He could only look out the car window and look at the scenery, while thinking about what the county captain wanted to do with him.

He is just a small logistics captain, what can he do to help the county captain?

In the eyes of outsiders, apart from being able to make good medicinal food and wine, he seemed to have no other specialties. If he had any other specialties, it would be that he had demonstrated his medical skills and helped his neighbors with medical treatment.

As for poison and medicine, he has never shown it in front of others.

Could it be that the matter of killing Ling Ye was exposed?

This is also unlikely. No one saw him kill Ling Ye.

"I don't want to think about it anymore. I'll find out when I get to Lin Mansion."

Chen Xuan shook his head and spared his brain cells.

With the movement of the carriage, the buildings on both sides of the street became regular, the streets became wider and smoother, and the surrounding houses changed from small courtyards to deep courtyards with blue bricks and red tiles.

About half an hour or so.

The carriage stopped in front of a red painted gate.

This is the mansion of County Lieutenant Lin Changrong. It is much more luxurious than Ling Ye's mansion. Chen Xuan came here once.

However, the last time he came here, he entered through the side door.

Um.

This time I also entered through the side door.

Passing through pavilions and pavilions along the way, we soon arrived at the inner palace.

The guards in the inner palace are obviously much tighter.

Along the way, Chen Xuan encountered three teams of patrolling guards alone.

Each team of patrol guards has more than twenty people, each wearing leather armor and holding swords and weapons.

After walking for a while, Chen Xuan was led to an inner courtyard by Butler Li.

"What a strong medicinal smell!"

As soon as he arrived at the inner courtyard, Chen Xuan smelled the strong smell of medicine in the air.

"Licorice, Purple Root, Manfengzi, Ginseng..."

Having reached the fourth level of medicine, Chen Xuan was very sensitive to the smell of medicine. Just by smelling the smell of medicine in the void, he recognized a dozen different medicinal materials.

Every medicinal material is a great tonic.

"What kind of disease does this have that requires so many powerful supplements?"

Chen Xuan thought.

With the combination of these dozen kinds of medicinal materials, let alone patients, even a healthy person may not be able to tolerate so many tonics, and will have nosebleeds on the spot.

In the courtyard, there were a dozen gray-haired old men standing having a heated discussion.

"Doctor Zhao, Dr. Wang, Dr. Hu."

Among a dozen gray-haired old men, Chen Xuan recognized several famous doctors in Qingshui County.

The fees for these famous doctors to visit are as high as ten taels of silver, which is looked down upon by ordinary people, and they only treat high-ranking officials.

"Madam, Captain Chen is here."

Butler Li stood outside the house and said respectfully.

"Let him in."

A woman's voice came from inside the house.

"Yes, madam."

Butler Li responded and took Chen Xuan into the house.

Enter the house.

Chen Xuan saw five or six maids and servants standing beside the bed, some carrying basins, some holding towels, some carrying medicinal meals, and sitting next to the bed was a noble lady with outstanding temperament.

The pear blossoms on the face are covered with rain.

Lying on the bed was County Lieutenant Lin Changrong.

Chen Xuan looked at Lin Changrong who was lying on the bed, his face was pale and breathless, and he looked like he might die at any time. He couldn't help but froze for a moment, feeling a little confused.

Now there are rumors outside that the county captain was so brave and invincible that he killed the rebellious leader of Changchun Taoist Temple on the spot and destroyed Changchun Taoist Temple, the number one martial arts sect in Qingshui County. Why did he suddenly become like this?

"Captain Chen, this is the eldest lady."

Butler Li stood aside and reminded him in a low voice.

"I've met the eldest lady."

Chen Xuan hugged his fists and said.

"Steward Li, please tell Captain Chen about the situation."

The eldest lady spoke, her voice full of exhaustion.

"Captain Chen, you have also seen the master's situation." Butler Li said: "Since I invited you here, I won't hide it from you. The master was seriously injured when he was at the Taoist Temple in Changchun yesterday, and he managed to hold on all the way back to the Taoist Temple in Changchun.

I fell into a coma after returning to the mansion. I just woke up this morning. I have no appetite for anything else. On the contrary, I can eat some of the medicated diet from Jufulou. And this medicated diet was created by Captain Chen. There is no one better than you.

The eldest lady asked Captain Chen to come over to prepare some medicinal food for the master, so that he can eat the best medicinal food once he wakes up."

"I see."

After hearing Butler Li's explanation, Chen Xuan nodded.

When it comes to medicated meals, the chef at Jufulou is almost as good as him, but he is still far behind.

Some dignitaries held banquets and invited him to their homes to prepare medicinal meals.

"There are many types of medicated foods with different nourishing functions. I need to make a detailed diagnosis of the adult's physical condition. I can prepare some more targeted medicated foods to help the adult recover faster."

Chen Xuan said in a deep voice.

"Madam, as the saying goes, medicine does not separate families. If Captain Chen can develop medicinal diet, he must also know medical skills." Butler Li said: "You can let Captain Chen show it to the master."

"Okay, then come over!"

The eldest lady nodded and stood up to make way for Chen Xuan.
