Chapter 368
On the other side, Xunxiangyuan.

"Master, has anyone been here?"

When Ting Lei came back from Jie Chi's courtyard, it was completely dark. He thought earlier that it would be no good for Jie Chi to seek him out. No, once he arrived at Luoying Courtyard and saw Jie Chi's broken roof, he understood what he was doing. Although he looks strong and strong, he is really just a doctor. Hey!
But in other people's territory, it's not easy for Ting Lei to refuse, and he said that the salary is indispensable, so Ting Lei did it and became a part-time job. It just so happened that he also wanted to save some money for his wife recently.

No, after discussing for a while, the sky completely darkened, and it was impossible to start work at night, Ting Lei came back after staying for a while.

Before leaving, he deliberately sprinkled a layer of medicinal powder on the gate of the courtyard and the roof of the enclosure wall. If someone has been there, he can find that the medicinal powder from the courtyard gate to the small courtyard has been destroyed, as well as the medicinal powder on the roof. or at least two people.

Ting Lei was startled, and hurriedly opened the door, seeing Tianji sitting by the chessboard safe and sound and playing chess with him, he was relieved, when he saw the mask on his face, he was stunned, "Master... but Princess Nine? "

If it was someone else, the master would definitely not put on a mask to see him, and he might be sent away with a word or two.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ting Lei noticed the porcelain vase next to the chessboard and in Tianji's hand.

"Is this the medicine from Princess Nine?"

Everyone knows the story of Su Jiu borrowing the pharmacy for the first time, and the hand she showed in the ring, it can be seen that she is a double cultivation of medicine and poison.

Tianji unhurriedly dropped a sunspot, "Yeah."

Ting Lei has followed Tianji for many years, so he naturally understands the mood swings in his calm tone.

After all, Princess Nine was the one whom the master loved the most back then.

The master has been suffering from illnesses since birth, and has seen all kinds of suffering clearly. His heart cannot be said to be cold and hard, but it can only be said that he has seen through the indifference of the world. There are many people who care about him in his heart, and even less than one person can care that much. finger.

In addition, what happened to the Ninth Princess back then, the master may feel ashamed in his heart.

"How about..." Ting Lei moved his lips, and just about to speak, he heard a clear voice suddenly sounded from the door.

"Mr. Tianji."

'Click! '

The white chess fell from Tianji's hands and landed on the chessboard.

"Master?" See you or not?

The sky turned his head, at this time the small courtyard was only burning a candle lamp at the entrance of the courtyard, the room was bright, and the courtyard became more and more dark, looking from the inside to the outside of the house, it was impossible to see the situation outside the house clearly.

The candlelight flickered, and under the mask, Tianji's eyes flickered. Finally, he sighed softly, pushed the wheelchair by hand, and walked to the door.

When Ting Lei opened the door in a timely manner, he knew that the master was reluctant to part with the ninth princess.

Su Jiu heard the sound of a wheelchair rolling in the room, and frowned. Could it be that he just fell ill again?It was less than an hour.

"Miss Jiu, I don't know why you came here at night?"

Sitting in a wheelchair, Tianji asked softly.

Su Jiu didn't speak, she stared fixedly at the wheelchair where Tianji was sitting, her brows wrinkled into a 'well'.

Ting Lei saw that Su Jiu's expression was not quite right, so he subconsciously followed her line of sight. When he saw his master's wheelchair, his eyebrows twitched. It's over. This wheelchair...is the one given to Qige by Princess Nine back then. That blueprint, it's just that Lao Zhao didn't use those fancy things, but the general outline is similar.

Isn't it true that the master lost his horse so quickly?
"Miss Jiu?"

Seeing that Su Jiu hadn't spoken for a long time, Tianji repeated it strangely.

"Oh, it's all right, I just think Mr. Tianji's wheelchair is very exquisitely made, and I can't help but be fascinated by it."

Su Jiu came back to her senses, her almond eyes narrowed slightly, and a smile appeared on the corners of her lips. It was this smile that Ting Lei saw, no matter how you looked at it, it felt pervasive. Should he remind the master that the drawing of this wheelchair is from one of the Nine Princesses? hand?
"More Shen Luzhong, if Miss Jiu has nothing else to do, please go back first." Tianji made a gesture of seeing off the guests, with suppressed emotions in his eyes as if they were about to burst out in the next second.

Su Jiu put her hands behind her back, didn't speak, but looked at Ting Lei, "I want to eat milk cake."

Ting Lei: ...

Every day in Jingfa Temple, stewed tofu with cabbage leaves is not seen at all. Where did the milk cake come from?
If you really want to buy this thing, you will have to go to the nearest town to buy it with light work, and milk is not uncommon. After all, the cows in the common people's homes are cultivated land, so how can they be so extravagant to produce milk? in the palace.

Wait, in the palace?
No, no, the Ninth Princess is determined so soon?
Ting Lei didn't dare to say anything, if the relationship between the two was mediocre, Su Jiu's request would be too much.

Su Jiu couldn't see the expression under Tianji's mask. Seeing that neither of them responded, Su Jiu looked over Tianji and looked into the room, and didn't continue to embarrass Lei.

"Mr. Tianji seems to be playing chess, can I ask you a question or two?"

If it were someone else, Tianji would no longer tolerate these words again and again, but...

Ting Lei looked at his master, his heart was clearly softened, master, he still wanted to talk more with Princess Jiu, even if it was just a normal chat.

really.

"If Miss Jiu doesn't bother..." Before Tianji could say anything, Su Jiu couldn't wait to step forward, squeezed Tinglei away, and stretched out her hand to support the wheelchair.

"No trouble, no trouble."

Ting Lei still wanted to follow in, but it never occurred to Su Jiu that just pushed the secret a little, turned around and stopped, and closed the door with a bang, almost missing Ting Lei's nose.

Ting Lei: ...

It's over, the Ninth Princess really found out!
Since the master didn't express any opinions, Ting Lei naturally didn't dare to say anything.

inside the house.

The candles on the table crackled, highlighting the silence of the room more and more.

Su Jiu slowly pushed the secret to sit in his original position.

"Mr. Tianji played white chess, and I played black chess."

Su Jiu fiddled with the thin bamboo on the candle wick that was about to fall into the candle oil, brought the candle closer, and then sat down.

"It's all right." Tianji nodded.

Su Jiu sat cross-legged on the futon, said she was playing chess, and started playing chess with him seriously.

Tianji made a move, raised his eyes to look at Su Jiu, who rested his head on one hand, and looked at the chessboard seriously, unconsciously lost in thought.

Jiu'er...recognized him.

But why not expose him?
Su Hongxuan was puzzled, but he was very attached to the beautiful and warm atmosphere now. After he was sent to Longquan in a coma, when he woke up again, he was already a different person. Concubine Liu Gui had already become Concubine Liu. Although the mother has been sad for a long time, the poor son, she walked out of the haze of bereavement with Jingqin's comfort and company.

There has always been a rumor among the people that there is no filial son in front of the bed for a long time.

The reverse is also true.

Concubine Liu Gui would not really be happy when he was with her for a day. As far as she was concerned, even if it was a very happy thing, as long as she thought of him, Concubine Liu Gui would feel happy and feel sorry for him.

Therefore, after hearing that Concubine Liu was in good health and that Jingqin was happily married, Su Hongxuan didn't have anything to worry about except Jiu'er.

"Mr. Tianji, you lost."

Just when Su Hongxuan was looking at Su Jiu in a daze, Su Jiu's voice suddenly sounded in his ears, and Su Hongxuan came back to his senses, just in time to see the girl smiling slyly at him, with two small dimples showing on the corners of her lips, very much like back then.

Su Hongxuan looked down at the chessboard, showing a doting smile, "Yes, I lost, Miss Jiu is really good at chess." In his memory, the little guy dozed off as soon as he saw the books and the chessboard. After reading a few lines, my head will download it first,

"I learned this chess by myself. The master doesn't like to play chess. He thinks it takes time to talk about it. He returns all kinds of scores and sees people's heads getting dizzy. I have no choice but to play with myself."

Su Jiu spoke briskly, "With the left hand, take the black chess pieces, and with the right hand, play the white chess pieces."

"Just like this, I have been playing alone for almost ten years, and Mr. Tianji is the first chess friend I have since I left the mountain?" Su Jiu raised her head and said with emotion.

Hearing the words, Su Hongxuan curled up his fingertips unconsciously and made a fist. He only felt that his throat was blocked by something, which was extremely dry and uncomfortable.

"Then...if Miss Jiu doesn't mind, you can play chess with Tianji. As long as Miss Jiu has time, Tianji will definitely accompany you."

"I hope too, but I should be leaving Jingfa Temple tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?" Tianji raised his head, met Su Jiu's eyes, and seemed to realize that he had a somewhat urgent tone, and then slowly lowered his voice and asked, "Didn't Miss Jiu just come back from Penglai Island today? Why don't you make more adjustments?" How many days?"

"When I came back, I happened to meet relatives who came to look for me. My relatives were already busy, and they spent a lot of time looking for me. If I don't go back, I'm afraid it will be bad." Su Jiu noticed that there was almost nothing on Su Lixun's table. A pile of memorials.

These days, Su Lixun probably lost a lot of time on the road, she was afraid that her fifth brother would die suddenly.

It's better to go back to the palace earlier, and save those who send the memorials a lot of trouble.

"That's it..." Su Hongxuan lowered his eyes, naturally felt an indescribable loss in his heart, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Is Mr. Tianji a native of the Western Jin Dynasty?"

Su Jiu sorted the chess pieces on the chessboard, and then placed a new one, asking.

"No, why does Miss Jiu ask like that?" Su Hongxuan was puzzled.

Su Jiu is playing black this time, "I'm just curious, has Mr. Tianji been to Beiyan Kingdom? There are many novel and interesting tricks on the long street in the capital. If Mr. Tianji is free recently, you can go there to have a look. Beiyan Kingdom The scenery will definitely not disappoint Mr. Tianji."

Is this inviting him to Beiyan Kingdom?
Su Hongxuan moved his lips and wanted to ask again, but suddenly felt an indescribable tiredness flooding up like a tide, and his eyelids also fought up and down, and Su Jiu in front of him changed from one to several, " For a long time...you..."

Su Hongxuan tilted his head and was about to hit the chessboard heavily, but he was supported by a small hand, which saved him from the danger of being injured.

"The third brother is really so simple."

Su Jiu straightened Su Hongxuan's head, let him lean on the back of the chair, got up and went around behind him, and took off the mask on his face.

An extremely familiar face appeared in front of his eyes. Although the third brother opened up a bit like the fifth brother, the eyebrows and outlines remained the same. Su Jiu confirmed at a glance that it was Su Hongxuan.

It's just that this face is slightly different from the memory, and it is more bloody than before.

But the lips are still slightly white, healthy, but not completely healthy.

When seeing the shape of the wheelchair, Su Jiu had a guess in his heart, and after Tian Ji agreed to play chess with him, Su Jiu was already very sure.

Legend has it that the master of the Tianji Pavilion, Shenlong, is indifferent and alienated, and never gets close to anyone, especially women.

Just now, if Su Jiu couldn't see his performance just now, he would be really stupid.

Su Jiu squatted down, resting her fingertips on his wrist.

"Why is your body still so weak after so many years?" Su Jiu didn't know what happened back then, but in his memory, the third brother's health was indeed not very good. Even the imperial doctor Chu couldn't save the third brother. According to his physical condition at that time, he might not be able to last for a few years, let alone live until now. It is conceivable that the third brother's suspended animation must have something to do with this.

But in any case, life is the most important thing. At that time, Su Jiu was still sad for several years when he heard the news of his third brother's death.

Su Jiu thought for a while, took out the porcelain bottle from her bosom, pinched his mouth open, poured the liquid in the porcelain bottle, then rolled up his trouser legs, and checked carefully, except that it might be left behind by sitting in a wheelchair all the year round. Su Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and was about to apply the medicine given to Su Hongxuan just now.

Su Hongxuan, who was still in a coma, suddenly convulsed, trembling uncontrollably, and the only blood on his lips faded at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"what happened?"

Su Jiu grabbed his wrist again.

Su Hongxuan's pulse was extremely disordered, and he couldn't detect anything at all. He didn't know if it was because he was in a coma. The pain that could be suppressed when he was awake could not be controlled at all, and he hummed in pain unconsciously.

"master!"

Ting Lei didn't dare to go far, and kept guarding the door. With his martial arts, even if he didn't listen carefully, he could clearly hear the unabashed conversation between the two in the room, but after listening for a while, he gradually couldn't hear his master's voice. Now, if it was an ordinary time, Ting Lei couldn't help breaking into the house, but when he thought that it was Princess Nine inside, Ting Lei restrained himself. Anyway, no matter what Princess Nine does, his master will spoil her. Yes, what is he messing with as a subordinate, right?

It wasn't until he heard Su Hongxuan's painful groan coming from the room that he couldn't hold back and pushed the door open.

When seeing Su Hongxuan's appearance, he immediately understood what happened, "Jiu..."

Ting Lei took a few steps forward, just as he was about to speak, he caught a glimpse of the mask that had been randomly placed on the chessboard. The vest fell off so quickly, "Ninth Princess, the master is ill."

"I'm not blind."

Without even looking at Ting Lei, Su Jiu picked up Su Hongxuan with both hands and put him on the couch.

All the clothes on his upper body and lower body were stripped off, leaving only a pair of obscene pants.

Ting Lei: ...
