It's nothing more than another faction, but who made the move?
Could it be the third prince?
Some time ago, the third prince and the eldest prince had a fierce quarrel in private, and even had a confrontation in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
But is the Third Prince really so eager?
At this time, the eldest prince was assassinated, and the third prince was the most suspected.
The third prince was the first person to suspect anyone. Could it be that the third prince couldn't wait any longer?
But the third prince can't be so stupid, right? Being so impatient will definitely make the emperor angry, and he will be the first to investigate.
Gu Chengyu thought about it, but felt that it was possible for the other three princes.
With Prince Jing making so many plans in private, could he not be tempted by the position of crown prince? He is about to be appointed crown prince, can Prince Jing still watch?
"Master Gu! Who do you think is behind the assassin?"
Qiu Yifan saw that Gu Chengyu was thoughtful and thought that he should try to trick this person.
"This incident happened when the eldest prince returned to his palace. Could it be related to the family extermination case?"
Gu Chengyu's eyes showed confusion. He looked at Qiu Yifan, paying careful attention to his expression.
"The murder case? What Mr. Gu said makes sense. Since we are here for the Hejian Mansion case, it should be related to this matter."
Qiu Yifan nodded, then closed his eyes and began to think deeply.
Gu Chengyu is testing Qiu Yifan, so why not Qiu Yifan?
He carefully considered the meaning of Gu Chengyu's words in his mind. Did Gu Chengyu mean that the third prince did it this time?
After all, his father-in-law was highly valued by the eldest prince. He often analyzed the situation in the court with him, and sometimes revealed some things to him that ordinary people didn't know.
Although the cost is to advance and retreat with his father-in-law, as a sixth-grade official, it is still a good choice to rely on the eldest prince.
The third prince must have had a hand in what happened in the Hejian Mansion this time. Gu Chengyu said that the matter was related to the family extermination case, so did Gu Chengyu know that the third prince was behind the incident?
"I'm just guessing! It's a bit taken for granted. The eldest prince rarely leaves the capital in recent years. Maybe this time he went to Hejian Mansion in person, he gave those thieves a chance. It's not impossible for them to take advantage of this opportunity to make a move.
We don’t know the specific details, so it’s best not to speculate.”
Seeing that the other party was seriously thinking about the possibility of this matter, Gu Chengyu couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
In fact, he said this because he wanted to test it. Who would have thought that Qiu Yifan didn't know much more than he did.
The third prince had a hand in the murder case in Hejian Mansion, and his senior brother once told him.
Qiu Yifan's father-in-law Bian Shengrong is a member of the royal family, so it is normal for Qiu Yifan to get the news so quickly.
However, according to the current situation, either Bian Shengrong is hiding something from Qiu Yifan, or the Grand Prince Party has no idea who is behind the scenes.
Time passed quietly as the two of them had their own thoughts. When it was time to leave, Qiu Yifan immediately said goodbye to Gu Chengyu and hurried back home.
Gu Chengyu smiled and shook his head. He could understand Qiu Yifan's eagerness.
This is a major matter related to vital interests. If the eldest prince's injury is too serious, the court will have to reshuffle the cards.
Gu Chengyu also packed up his things and headed towards the Yin Mansion.
As a long-time veteran of the court, Yin Kun must have some connections, and he might know some inside information.
Gu Chengchi's Jishitang has already opened. Although it has just opened, the business is better than that in Shanhe Town.
The capital is prosperous, and the population of the town cannot be compared with the capital. Even though the medical clinic is newly opened, Gu Chengchi is still very young, and there are many people coming to get medicine.
As long as you come to the medical clinic to get medicine, the prices are reasonable and slightly cheaper than other hospitals. Gradually, many people come to see the doctor these days.
Mr. Li walked out of the room and looked at Gu Chengchi, who was grabbing medicine on the counter, and Lao Huai couldn't help but feel relieved.
He planned to help out at the medical clinic for a few months, and when the reputation of the medical clinic improved, he would no longer have to worry about making a living.
"Master! There are 10% more customers getting medicine today than usual, and many people come to see the doctor. It seems that the reputation is gradually increasing, thank you for your hard work, teacher."
Gu Chengchi grabbed the medicine for this man. Seeing that there was no patient left, he quickly thanked the teacher who left the room.
"You and I, master and disciple, don't need to be too polite. The medical clinic Xiaobao chose for you is in a good location. The houses here are not cheap. I guess a lot of thought has been put into it for you. You should keep it in mind."
Lieutenant General Li looked around the hospital and nodded while stroking his beard.
This medical clinic is a large room with two doors, and there is a medium-sized courtyard at the back. There are also five rooms in it. Two of the rooms are divided into places where the doctor sits, and the other three are the hall and wing rooms.
Speaking of this, Gu Chengchi also had a happy face. This shop cost him three thousand taels of silver!
This place is in a good location and the shop is not cheap. Coupled with the money needed to buy medicinal materials, all his savings over the years have been squandered.
But he was very satisfied with the shop. Although it couldn't compare with those big medical clinics, he was already very satisfied.
This is his family business, and he will have an explanation for his descendants in the future.
At that time, there was another shop that was quieter than this one, but my younger brother still suggested that he buy this one.
Although the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, only in a good location can people see the shop, right?
"Of course I'm grateful. Needless to say, Xiaobao is so kind to my family. I still have the money to buy the shop thanks to Xiaobao. Master, don't worry, I'm not that kind of ungrateful person."
Although when he first became a disciple, the master's concern for Xiao Bao made him slightly jealous, but he knew that the master was interested in Xiao Bao in the first place. Now he is relieved, after all, Xiao Bao has another way to go.
Mr. Li nodded with satisfaction. He had also taken a fancy to this man's honest temperament and pure nature. Otherwise, he would not have accepted him as his apprentice. He was a person who would rather lack than abuse.
The two of them were chatting about home affairs when a middle-aged steward wearing silk and satin suddenly entered the shop.
When Gu Chengchi saw business coming to his door, he naturally got up to greet him.
"Does this master want to take medicine?"
When the man heard this title, a smile appeared on his rigid face.
But after he took a look at the medical center and saw that there were only two people in the medical center, the smile on his face became a little weird.
"I am the steward of the outer courtyard of the Zhenguo Palace. My surname is Sun. There are patients in my house. Which of you is a doctor? Please come with me!"
Manager Sun raised his chin slightly, his eyes showing disdain.
Although the layout of this medical clinic is quite elegant, there are only a few people and doctors in the medical clinic, and there are even fewer patients.
There was not even a child to take medicine, which shows how sluggish the business is.
However, this was exactly the purpose of his trip. So he didn't waste any time and spoke directly.
As soon as these words came out, both Gu Chengchi and Gu Chengchi were startled.
The Duke's Mansion? Gu Chengchi swallowed his saliva.
This is an aristocratic family in the capital. How did you find their medical clinic?
