Bai Shi'an's expression was rather grave. Because of this matter, the atmosphere in the family had been rather tense these past few days.
Gradually, many people felt that the Bai family should seek justice for Master Xunyang.
Although they did not dare to openly pressure them, they had to consider the popular sentiment.
But these members of the aristocratic families were well aware of the importance of the Gong family's current position.
Up until now, there had been no conclusion as to whether or not they should thoroughly offend the Gong family for the sake of these disciples.
The Bai family was now in a dilemma and in an extremely awkward situation.
Lin Mengya understood his concern. After thinking for a while, she spoke.
"It is indeed inappropriate for the Bai family to interfere in this matter. Thus, the Third Young Master and I thought that it would be better for us to take care of it. "
"You take care of it? How? "Bai Shi'an revealed a somewhat puzzled expression. "It's not that I don't trust you, but the crowd is currently agitated. I'm afraid that as soon as you show yourselves, those people will rush over to take revenge on you. Even if they are all scholars without the strength to truss a chicken, two fists are no match for four hands. If you act rashly again, there will be no chance to redeem yourself. "
Bai Shi'an's tone was extremely heavy.
It seemed that this Third Young Master of the Bai family was not as ignorant as he appeared.
Lin Mengya smiled and glanced at her man.
The latter had been sitting quietly by her side the entire time, but his presence was hard to ignore.
"We'll have to trouble our family's divine doctor with this matter."
"Divine doctor? Where did this divine doctor come from? "
"I don't know if the Third Young Master has heard of the Zheng family. Zheng Congen's daughter, Zheng Rongrong, is often ill because of a congenital deficiency. Half a month ago, she almost lost her life because of an accident. "
The Zheng family and the Bai family were not far from each other. At the time, this matter had caused quite a stir. Old Master Zheng had practically turned over his entire fief to invite famous doctors. The Bai family was certain to know some of the news.
Bai Shi'an was stunned. Then, as if thinking of something, he asked tentatively, "Could it be that the young lady of the Zheng family has already recovered from her illness?"
"Yes. She is very fortunate and blessed by the heavens. There was a wandering divine doctor who cured her. Right now, Miss Zheng's health is improving day by day. If the Third Young Master doesn't believe me, you can send someone to verify it. "
Bai Shi 'an's mind suddenly became active.
The crux of the problem was Sir Xunyang's health.
It could be said that as long as Sir Xunyang was safe and sound, this matter could be reduced from a big matter to a small one and a small matter to nothing.
If Sir Xunyang were to die because of this, this would probably become a dead knot that could never be undone.
He slammed the table excitedly and jumped up.
"If you can find this genius doctor, then the siege between our two families can be resolved!"
"I only heard that this Godly Doctor's whereabouts are a mystery."
She deliberately beat around the bush. When Bai Shi 'an heard this, his face fell.
He stared at her resentfully, as if he felt that she was playing with him.
Lin Mengya did not care at all. She picked up the teacup gracefully and took a sip.
"Since he's a divine doctor who practices medicine to save the world, he'll definitely go wherever there's trouble. If Sir Xunyang's personal disciple sincerely prays every day for the sake of curing Teacher's illness, perhaps the Heavens will be moved and this Sir Divine Doctor will personally come to this place. "
There was no need for her to say anything else.
Bai Shi'an's expression fluctuated for a while before he finally understood what she meant.
"Miss's words are reasonable. I only happened to hear about this matter from a caravan from the Zheng family. As for the whereabouts of this divine doctor, I'm unable to help."
Lin Mengya put down the teacup and nodded at him with a smile.
Talking to smart people was indeed convenient.
That night, the Third Master Bai, who had never cared about family matters, personally went to visit the seriously ill Sir Xunyang with gifts.
He and Sir Xunyang had a teacher-student relationship, so everyone praised him for being affectionate and righteous and did not feel that there was anything wrong with this.
When he was talking to the disciples who took care of his teacher, he inadvertently revealed that a month ago, a divine doctor who could bring the dying back to life had personally visited the Zheng family.
Not only did he cure the eldest daughter of the Zheng family of her old illness, he also gracefully left without expecting anything in return. He could be said to be benevolent and merciful.
At first, those disciples were still skeptical.
But when the Bai family and the other famous doctors were all at a loss for Sir Xunyang's illness, they became somewhat desperate and turned to any doctor they could find.
Those disciples began to search for information about this divine doctor.
And these days, all the caravans that came from the Zheng family more or less knew some inside information.
Over time, these disciples also believed that this matter was true. There were even people who wanted to find out where this divine doctor was now, but there was no news.
After a few more days, someone said that somewhere outside the city, they saw an old divine doctor with the demeanor of a transcendent being who was currently treating the villagers for free.
There were even more people who said that when the old divine doctor appeared, he was riding a white immortal deer and was dressed in embroidered robes with auspicious clouds. He was definitely an immortal who had descended to the mortal world.
In any case, in those people's rumors, this divine doctor was described as an immortal who had descended to the mortal world.
Even Lin Mengya, the person in question, could not help but almost choke on the tea in her throat when she heard this.
But on second thought, she felt that this matter could still be considered an opportunity.
Just as she was about to discuss with her husband whether it was time to go out of seclusion and swindle people again, she received news that the Bai family had invited a divine doctor.
And she and Long Tianhao were once again invited by Bai Shi 'an to a teahouse in the city.
"Did you arrange for that person to come here?"
The moment they entered the teahouse, Bai Shi 'an lowered his voice and asked hurriedly.
The two of them looked at each other and Lin Mengya gently shook her head.
However, Bai Shi 'an's brows were tightly knitted together.
"Damn it! How could someone take advantage of this loophole! "
From what he said, it seemed that there was more to this than meets the eye.
After the three of them took their seats, Bai Shi 'an then told them what had happened in the past few days.
"After they found out about the divine doctor, they went around looking for him. I originally thought that I would first create a momentum for you so that when your people appear, everything would be logical. But just yesterday, a divine doctor came to my house. It was said that he was the divine doctor who had cured Miss Zheng. I felt that this person did not seem like a decent person, so I casually probed him. Indeed, I found that there was something wrong with him. "
After sensing that the other party was deceiving him, Bai Shi 'an did not continue, for fear of alerting the enemy.
Therefore, he hurriedly invited the two of them out to ask them about it.
"He truly isn't one of us, but now that he's impersonated us, I'm afraid that it's not that simple."
Lin Mengya quickly realized the seriousness of the matter.
If it was just a swindler, then it would be fine.
But if someone with ulterior motives wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to completely end Sir Xunyang's life, then it would be troublesome.
"That's why I hurriedly invited you out to discuss a countermeasure. It's my fault for being too rash. Otherwise, I wouldn't have given them this opportunity! "
Bai Shi 'an somewhat blamed himself. In truth, if they had followed Su Mei's plan, it would have been enough for the disciples to sincerely pray.
But he had changed the plan without permission and added quite a bit of extra drama. Thus, he had been used by someone with ulterior motives.
Thus, he had to think of a way to remedy the situation.
Lin Mengya also knew that time was of the essence.
"Right now, they must be prejudiced by their first impression that he's the divine doctor. If we rashly argue with him, it's very easy for others to think that we're swindlers. "
Bai Shi 'an felt even more guilty. He inwardly scolded himself. I really can't do anything right.
Lin Mengya was also somewhat helpless, but the man next to her reached out and gently squeezed her hand.
"They want a doctor who can treat illnesses, not a divine doctor's gimmick."
These words hit the nail on the head.
Lin Mengya suddenly felt as if the clouds had been dispelled and the sun had come into view. That's right, how could she have put the cart before the horse?
"My husband is right."
Her eyes curved, and there was no longer any haze in them.
Sitting across from her, Bai Shi 'an suddenly felt a little full.
Eh? From last night until now, he had been so anxious that he hadn't taken a single drop of water.
And it was clear that the two who had inadvertently displayed their affection had already found a solution.
"My husband's meaning is that although they've found a divine doctor, the divine doctor may not be able to cure Sir Xunyang. Since the identity of divine doctor is temporarily useless, they didn't say that other doctors aren't allowed to treat patients, right? "
Simplifying the complicated, it wasn't impossible for them to treat patients with the identity of ordinary doctors.
However, compared to a divine doctor who could bluff people, they might have to go through a lot more trouble.
After all, people always had the habit of being infatuated with authority.
A single word from an expert was more useful than a hundred pages of information.
The three of them discussed their next plan. This time, they would use Bai Shi 'an's name to personally send a doctor in.
But this way, they would definitely be suspected by certain people and might even be ostracized.
But time was of the essence, so they could only do this.
After Bai Shi 'an returned, he used the excuse of thanking his benefactor and begged his second brother.
On the third day after the divine doctor was invited to the estate, two unknown junior doctors were also sent in by the Second Master, who considered them to be better than nothing.
But this time, Lin Mengya was disguised as a little old man, while Long Tianhao was dressed in coarse clothes and a beard. He was disguised as a servant who did rough work.
As soon as these two people arrived at Sir Xunyang's estate, the steward arranged for them to stay in the guest room.
"You two can rest here. If there's anything you need, just tell me."
Compared to the servants of ordinary aristocratic families, the steward here did not have the appearance of a yes-man or a slave.
From the way he dressed to the way he spoke, he had the elegance and restraint of a scholar.
At the same time, he also had the loftiness of a scholar.
His attitude towards these two people couldn't be considered warm, but it wasn't cold either.
After all, they had been sent here by the Second Master of the Bai clan, so he had to give the Bai clan some face.
Lin Mengya looked around, then nodded at the steward.
The steward didn't wait for her to give him any reward and politely asked to be excused.
"Tsk, this guest room is far inferior to the Zheng clan."
