A knife in love

Chapter 1129

After Zhu Shisi and the princess heard this, although they were dubious in their hearts, they had no choice but to look at each other, and then walked out of the house in dismay.The princess turned her head three times at a step, with a reluctance on her face.

After Zhu Shisi and the princess walked out of the house, Li Qiufeng looked at the short fat man with a strange smile on his face.Humpty Humpty hurriedly waved his hand at him, signaling him to leave quickly.Li Qiufeng then closed the door and retreated outside.I saw that Zhu Shishi and the princess did not stay away, but stood at the door, looking at Li Qiufeng nervously.Li Qiufeng knew that the two of them were worried, so he cupped his hands and said, "My lord, my concubine, my master is proficient in medicine. With his help, my son should be fine."

Zhu Shishi nodded and said, "What is your position in Jinyiwei?"

Li Qiufeng smiled slightly, and said: "To be honest, I have left Jinyiwei, and I am just a prodigal son at the moment."

Zhu Shishi's complexion changed, as if he couldn't believe his ears, he just looked Li Qiufeng up and down carefully.Li Qiufeng said: "When I left Jinyiwei, thanks to Master Yang Zhen Zhongyang who was in charge of Jinyiwei, he didn't take away Jinyiwei's badge from me. That's why the dog officer surnamed Wang was taken away."

Zhu Shishi was startled and suspicious, thinking to himself how could such a coincidence happen in the world?I was in a predicament, but there was such a knight to help.He pondered for a moment, glanced at Li Qiufeng, and said, "Your Excellency, Master, his accent doesn't seem to be from the middle of Sichuan. I don't know where he lives in immortality, and who is his teacher?"

Li Qiufeng knew that Zhu Shishi had doubts about him in his heart, so he said in a deep voice: "I want to teach the prince to know that his family teacher's surname is Liu, and he lived in the middle of Sichuan. It's just that he lives in seclusion in the mountains and never cares about world affairs. The world's reputation is not obvious."

When he said this, he paused for a while, and then continued: "My concubine just mentioned Mr. He from Mount Emei. My teacher has also met this Mr. He on several occasions. If the prince and princess see Mr. He in the future, You might as well ask him if he knows Mr. Liu who lives in Shushan in seclusion. He will naturally tell the two about my master."

Zhu Shishi calmed down a little, and said in his mouth: "Looking at the behavior of your Excellency and Master, I must be a person of great ability. I shouldn't have worried about the two of you. Just now Master refused to let us Seeing how he healed the dog in the house made me a little worried, and I hope you don't blame me for being careless."

Li Qiufeng said: "My lord's thinking is not unreasonable. The teacher is just trying to be safe, lest we stand aside, shocking the son, and causing unpredictable disasters. Therefore, you two don't have to worry, just wait outside the house Can."

When Li Qiufeng said this, he took out the banknotes from his pocket with his right hand, and said to Zhu Shishi: "These banknotes were taken from the hands of two dirty officials, and they were not given to the lord, so there is no need for the lord to be afraid." Over the years, those dog officials from the Ministry of Rites have cheated the prince of countless money, and asking these officials to spit out some money is definitely not a sinful thing."

Zhu Shisi pondered for a moment, then nodded, then took the bank note from Li Qiufeng, and said: "Your Excellency is right. Since the generation of my grandfather, in order to name the ancestors, the Ministry of Rites and The money sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs is no less than 4 to [-] taels. If you take their money today, you have the right to get some interest back."

The princess finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Zhu Shisi took the bank note.

The two chatted casually for a few words, and suddenly heard footsteps, and then the old servant walked into the backyard through the corner door.I saw him holding a bunch of medicine bags in his right hand, walked quickly to Zhu Shishi, and said in his mouth: "My lord, the medicine has been bought, would you like to take a look?"

Zhu Shishi shook his head and said, "Uncle, be careful in doing things, and I will leave this matter to you."

The old servant nodded and said: "In that case, the old servant will go to the side room in the front yard to decoct medicine."

Zhu Shishi said: "Then please trouble uncle. But these three friends have helped us a lot, and I think we haven't eaten yet. Uncle went to Yuexin Restaurant and asked for a table. Let's have a good drink with a few friends."

The old servant was taken aback, thinking to himself that the palace has been struggling to make ends meet in the past few years, so it can only tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall.The house can only drink a bowl of porridge and eat a little pickles every day, and it has long been unknown what the wine and food in the tavern taste like.Even if Zhu Shishi wants to treat guests today, he can't afford a penny, so what should he do?

The old servant hesitated, but he was ashamed to say such an embarrassing thing in front of outsiders. Just when he didn't know what to do, Zhu Shishi handed him a bank note and said, "You go to the bank to exchange 20 taels of money first." Silver, and then book a table and come back."

The old servant took the bank note and looked at it in his hand, as if he couldn't believe his eyes.He raised his head and was about to talk to Zhu Shishi when he heard Li Qiufeng say: "My lord, these banknotes cannot be exchanged right now."

Zhu Shishi was startled, and thought to himself, you are the one who gave me the banknote, and you are the one who forbids me to spend the banknote.Could it be that you gave me the bank note to amuse me?

Seeing Zhu Shisi's expression of hesitation, Li Qiufeng knew that he was unhappy, so he said: "My lord, those two dog officials gave me the bank note, and I must be annoyed. With the wisdom of these two people I don't think so, I won't believe it easily. Even though I handed over the banknotes to my subordinates, I'm afraid all the banks in the city will send people to monitor them. If this uncle goes to exchange the banknotes and is seen by those hawks and dogs watching him, he will definitely be implicated. To the prince. How about ten days and a half months before the prince asks this uncle to go to a nearby prefecture to find an unremarkable bank to exchange the bank notes, that's a surefire plan."

Only then did Zhu Shishi understand, and he felt ashamed in his heart.Li Qiufeng took out a piece of silver from his bosom, which was worth five or six taels, handed it to the old servant, and said, "Use this silver to buy wine and food."

The old servant looked at the silver that Li Qiufeng handed over, but didn't reach out to take it, but turned his head to look at Zhu Shishi.

Zhu Shisi pondered for a moment, then said to the old servant: "In that case, uncle will take the money."

Only then did the old servant respectfully accept the money, bowed and gave a salute, and was about to turn around and leave when the old man surnamed Huang who had been standing silently said, "I'm also proficient in medicine. Just now Mr. Liu asked When this old gentleman was buying medicine, I also listened to the prescription and dosage he said. Since the prince wants this old gentleman to buy wine and food, let me cook the medicine for the prince."

Zhu Shishi said: "Mr. is a guest from afar, how can I bother you to do these things?"

The old man surnamed Huang said: "My lord, you don't have to be polite. We are all here to save the prince, and we can't delay for a moment."

After he finished speaking, he turned his head and said to the old servant: "Please trouble the old man to take the place where the medicine is decocted."

The old servant said: "Thank you sir. Please come with me, sir."

Zhu Shishi watched the old man surnamed Huang and the old servant walk out of the backyard, then turned to Li Qiufeng and said, "Your Excellency is thoughtful, I admire you."

Li Qiufeng said: "Your Majesty Jinkou praises it, I am honored."

Seeing the princess standing aside, Zhu Shishi looked nervous and trembled uncontrollably.He handed the banknotes in his hand to the concubine, and said in his mouth: "You can keep these banknotes. The two children don't know what they are doing in the house. You should go and see them, and don't let them miss their homework."

The princess took the bank note, knowing that Zhu Shishi couldn't bear her to stand outside the study in fear, so she found an excuse to leave by herself.Although she hesitated a bit, she finally nodded, and quietly walked across the yard and into the wing on the left.

Li Qiufeng stood in front of the study door with his hands behind his back, looking up at the sky.Naturally, he would not believe the nonsense that Master said.The son is seriously ill, the short fat man wants to protect the son's heart with deep internal strength, so that his vitality will not dissipate, and after the medicine is prepared, he will take it and save the son's life.It's just that when Humpty Humpty is developing his skills, he must go all out, which is when he is most vulnerable.Although Humpty and Li Qiufeng both saw that Zhu Shisi and the princess didn't know martial arts, but the situation in the world was treacherous and they had to be safe.Because of this, the Humpty Man purposely uttered nonsense such as "the soul is frightened", which made Zhu Shisi and the princess terrified and had to leave the study so that the Humpty Humpty could treat the prince.And the old man surnamed Huang is also a person who is proficient in medicine. Before he came to the palace, he had already guessed his intentions after listening to the talk between the short fat man and Zhu Shisi.So when Zhu Shishi ordered the old servant to prepare wine and food, the old man stood up for fear of making a mistake, and went to prepare the medicine for the old servant.He was as thoughtful as the short fat man and Li Qiufeng, pitying Zhu Shishi's family for being so degraded, and wanted to save his son's life so that this down-and-out prince would not be even more embarrassed.
