Chapter 425: The Autumn Moon of the Four Great Talents
Maerdru didn't know how to express his sincerity, so he bowed and asked, "Please also ask Mr. Zhu, Mrs. Zhu to make it clear that as long as I can ask for a marriage to Qiuxiang, I am willing to agree to any conditions."
Su Xueyun looked up at Qiuxiang. Although Qiuxiang didn't say anything, her expression was clearly because she was afraid that they would make things difficult for Maerdru. It seemed that the only thing that tied Qiuxiang was the only distance. Su Xueyun thought for a while and said, "There were some disputes with the Tatars in the past, and I believe the prince knew very well."
Maerdru hurriedly replied: "Yes, but now we have had friendly contacts with the Ming Dynasty, so it will not be difficult for Qiuxiang to marry him."
Su Xueyun shook her head and said, "There are many disputes in the past. Now it is peaceful, which does not mean that peace will continue in the future. Prince, once Tatars and I have become dirty in the future, how should Qiuxiang deal with it? How can the people of Tatars respect Qiuxiang? This is a very realistic question, and the men in our family will not take concubines, and women will not marry men who can take concubines. Prince, you will be the leader of Tatars in the future. Can you guarantee that you will stay with Qiuxiang for the rest of your life and will not accept any other women?"
Maerdru thought about it carefully before replying: "Madam Zhu, I hate war too. If the Ming Dynasty did not take the initiative to do anything to the Tatars, I would not be able to provoke a war. Even if something really happened, Qiuxiang would be respected by everyone if she became my queen in the future. I can guarantee that my people would not hurt Qiuxiang. As for taking a concubine, there is no problem with this. I have never taken a concubine. I hope I can live with Qiuxiang until I grow old."
Qiu Xiang raised her head in emotion, looked at Maerdru and stopped talking, and after a while, she sighed lightly, "Why are you doing this? You obviously have a better choice."
Maerdrew said firmly: "No, my best choice is you, Qiuxiang, I will not let you down."
Su Xueyun looked at the sky and stood up politely and said, "We have understood the prince's sincerity, but we still need to consider such a major matter carefully. Please don't worry, and we must discuss this matter slowly."
Maerdru said anxiously: "But I will return to Tatar soon."
Su Xueyun raised her eyebrows and said, "I heard that the prince will come to Beijing next year. If you are in a hurry to go back, why not wait until you come to Beijing next year to mention this matter?"
Maerdru was silent, wondering whether Su Xueyun was politely refusing or really reluctant to part with Qiuxiang. He looked at the few people and knew that he would not get the result for the time being, so he had to say goodbye in a little disappointed manner.
Su Xueyun didn't keep him either. After the three of them sent him away, Su Xueyun pulled Qiuxiang back to the room. Chen Xiaosheng naturally took the initiative to take over the task of cooking and asked the two sisters to talk about their thoughts.
Su Xueyun sat beside the bed holding Qiuxiang's hand and smiled and said, "Follower, why don't you tell your sister if you have someone you like? Although the distance is a little far, your brother-in-law and I are so good at martial arts. When will I want to see you? It won't take long to ride a fast horse to travel. Why do you have to make things difficult for yourself because of this? Yes, everyone can take care of each other in the same place, and it is much more lively in normal times, but the one who is with you for the rest of your life is your lover. Choosing the right person is the most important thing, and you must consider it seriously."
Qiuxiang was very confused, "I don't know what to do, sister, I didn't know that he was the prince of Tatar at first. I thought he was an ordinary businessman, and I regarded him as a friend. Later... Later on our way to the suburbs, I almost got hit by a carriage. He saved me. I don't know what, but I always thought of him. I originally thought that even if he was a Tatar, he could move here to settle in the capital in the future. He himself said that he liked the prosperity of the capital very much. But he didn't expect that he told me that he was a Tatar prince, so how could he stay in the capital with me? I really can't bear to leave you, and I don't know what to do."
Su Xueyun looked at Qiuxiang and asked, "How old is Maerdru's son, who was born to his previous deceased wife. Can you really accept it? Just as your brother-in-law said, there are many good men in the capital waiting to propose marriage to you, and you have many choices."
Qiuxiang replied subconsciously: "He said his son is very well-behaved and sensible, and I also like children very much. I, I think, should be fine."
Su Xueyun helped her smooth her hair and smiled gently, "Okay, since this is the case, the first thing you have to consider is whether you can really give up on him. In the future, you only think that he is a passerby, no longer be moved by him, and no longer think about him. Then when you meet another man who can move you, consider your marriage and forget about Maerdru from now on."
Qiuxiang unconsciously pressed her heart and said, "Sister, I feel very uncomfortable when I think of that picture."
Su Xueyun patted her hand and comforted her: "It's okay, you can also follow your own wishes and live with him and go to Tatar. If you have time in the future, come back to see us, and we will also visit you. If you really have difficulty making a decision, then there are other choices, such as what I told Maerdrew just now, let's not mention this matter yet. When he comes to the capital next year, then see what's going on. If you still have any intentions about each other, at least it means that you are not impulsive and trust each other more. If anyone has changed his mind this year, then you naturally don't need to mention this matter. Or this year you can go to Tatar as a guest, first experience the life there as a friend, and get along with Maerdrew so that you can make better decisions."
Qiuxiang leaned on Su Xueyun's shoulder in emotion and said, "Sister, you have considered everything for me. It's great to have sister."
"Is that true?" Su Xueyun looked a little dazed and said with a smile, "Qiuyue is also very happy to have a sister as good as you."
The two sisters leaned together quietly and hadn't spoken for a long time, but they could feel the kind of blood-thickness than water. The twin sisters probably should have been so close.
Su Xueyun analyzed all the possibilities to Qiuxiang, and planned all the retreat for Qiuxiang. No matter what happens in the future, Qiuxiang could not be bound by a Maer Drew and could still live a free life. Perhaps she was a sister in her previous life, so she also had a lot of experience in this life and thought about things very carefully.
Qiuxiang thought about it for three days and finally decided to limit it to one year. She first went to Tatar to live for half a year, experience the life there, get along with Maerdrew and his son, and then returned to the capital and separated for half a year with Maerdrew. When Maerdrew comes to the capital next year, she decided to marry or not.
Although it sounds like a lot of trouble, this is indeed the best way. If their relationship with each other deepens after a year, everyone can rest assured. As for whether the Ming and Tatars will fight again in the future, Su Xueyun thinks that she can solve this problem for more than ten years or decades, but in the end she will still have to participate in national affairs.
Maerdru was very happy when he heard this decision, and he was very confident that they would be together next year. He was full of spring breeze and promised to take good care of Qiuxiang with Su Xueyun and the others. Su Xueyun gave Qiuxiang a pear blossom needle to defend himself, which was both a self-defense and a shock. He asked the Tatars to see the weapons of the Central Plains. If they dare to invade again, the soldiers of the Central Plains will have a pear blossom needle. Who can compete with? In addition, there are some poisons, medicines, drugs, etc. Qiuxiang followed her and didn't learn any medical skills. She could do it. It was safer to carry these with her.
After packing up, Qiu Xiang reluctantly said goodbye to Su Xueyun and embarked on the road to Tatar with Maerdrew. Su Xueyun lost her sister to take care of her, and Chen Xiaosheng was not at home during the day, so she began to develop the medical hall with all her strength. In the early stage, she asked several students to write down the basic knowledge. After they wrote it down, she opened a clinic to treat people with the polar medical treatment, but only twenty people were treated every day. One of the purposes was to help those poor people who had no money to treat the disease, and the second purpose was to teach students to diagnose pulses and treat diseases.
It is precisely because she only treats twenty people every day that she does not anger other clinics, otherwise she will affect the interests of other clinics. In fact, if Su Xueyun’s medical hall is started, it will also have an impact on the interests of those clinics. There are places where medicine is specialized, who will still miserably go to those clinics to become followers? Besides, Su Xueyun teaches students that they never hide their own personalities, and she has learned more than she has learned elsewhere. But there are not many people who believe that Su Xueyun is not able to see this. When everyone really realizes the meaning of the medical hall in the future, they may be boiling frogs in warm water and can’t even make a fuss.
At the beginning, Su Xueyun's clinic only had one or two people to see a doctor every day, and they caught a cold and sprained minor illnesses. Several of her students were anxious, but Su Xueyun was not anxious at all. When there were no patients, she used dolls to teach them how to apply acupuncture and how to first aid. When there were patients, she taught them the experience of seeing the doctor seriously, and at the same time she taught them to be steady in doing things and not be impatient. The students were also close to Zhu Zhe Chi. They got along with Su Xueyun every day, and their mentality became more and more peaceful and their temperament became more and more steady. Especially after understanding her true abilities, they were all like they found treasures, and they wanted to turn into sponges to absorb everything Su Xueyun taught.
After that, Su Xueyun's good medical skills gradually spread among the common people, and twenty places must be filled up early every day. Su Xueyun will send twenty number cards every day when she opens the door. If she doesn't get the number cards, she doesn't have to queue up and waste time. The students in the medical hall pass these things to relatives and friends, and the relatives and friends will pass them to their relatives and friends. The number of students in the medical hall has gradually increased. Small things can be taught by senior brothers and junior brothers, and the important things are taught by Su Xueyun. The entire medical hall is very positive, with order and even achieving gender equality in a small range, just like a modern school.
However, a smooth life always happens to disrupt the situation. The envoy of Wusizang, Hayiba, went to Beijing to ask the emperor for a picture of Sakyamuni Buddha. The emperor agreed, but he found out that the picture of the Buddha had been broken by the emperor as early as the emperor's childhood. He agreed to the other party but could not take out the picture. The emperor immediately ordered Chen Xiaosheng and Zhou Wenbin to find a solution, otherwise they would be punished. This was a real disaster for Su Xueyun and the others.
