Chapter 36
"After you have seen it, can you remember it?" The man in Tsing Yi said coldly.
Ning Wanzhu's crisp voice sounded in the tent, and said: "Remember, but just to be on the safe side, please send a message to my family, and ask them to bring my drawing board, charcoal pencil and branding pen I need Come here as a set."
The two exchanged an answer, which seemed to wake up Xia Weizhe who was lying still. Xia Weizhe let out a low cry and said, "Water, give me... water."
Without saying a word, the man in Tsing Yi raised his legs and went out of the tent. When he turned around, a man who looked like a doctor came over with a medicine bowl and a kettle in his hand, and followed the man in Tsing Yi into the tent.The doctor half helped Xia Weizhe up, first fed him medicine, then poured a bowl of water, and fed Xia Weizhe.
The man in Tsing Yi asked the doctor in a low voice: "How is it?"
The doctor shook his head lightly, and said: "The high fever is hard to get rid of. I'm afraid the person will be burnt out before the sepsis in the wound goes away."
The man in Tsing Yi and the doctor whispered a few words, Xia Weizhe seemed to be a little sober after taking the medicine, he raised his head and said to the man in Tsing Yi: "Next time, cough cough, young master... It's really not good for me to commit a lowly life as an official. Grandpa is so...cough cough..."
As he spoke, he coughed and coughed up some blood foam.The man in Tsing Yi raised his hand and pushed Xia Weizhe back on the soft couch, and said: "Master Xia, don't worry about this much, just rest in peace and heal your wounds."
The man in Tsing Yi took a while to comfort Xia Weizhe, helped him lie down gently again, and turned his head suddenly, and saw Ning Wanzhu standing beside the soft couch, holding a blood-stained feather arrow in his hand.
Ning Wanzhu looked up and down the feathered arrow, unable to hide her surprise.She recognized this kind of feather arrow, and knew that it was commonly used by the guards of the Changchun Marquis Mansion.Although someone can remove the mark on the tail feathers of the long arrow, but the arrow body behind the arrow cluster is wrapped with a circle of red oilcloth, and it is coated with a thick layer of tung oil. unique to arrows.
The man in Tsing Yi frowned, took the feathered arrow from Ning Wanzhu's hand, and asked, "Have you seen this feathered arrow?"
Ning Wanzhu nodded, and said, "But I can't be sure, so I won't talk nonsense." She pointed at the tarpaulin and tung oil marks on the tip of the arrow, and said, "Actually, I won't say anything, I believe that with your Strength can also be traced."
"En!" The man in Tsing Yi nodded, suddenly there was a little sadness in his eyes, and he said in a low voice: "I'm afraid it is, and it will be useless to investigate."
Ever since seeing this man in Tsing Yi, Ning Wanzhu has never heard him say such impulsive words, it seems that this man is not used to showing his emotions in front of others.Ning Wanzhu instinctively wanted to comfort her at this moment, but she didn't know how to comfort her.
In the tent, the two of them just kept silent.When the man in Tsing Yi raised his eyes, he suddenly saw Ning Wanzhu's concerned gaze, paused, and then nodded to her, indicating that he was fine.
Ning Wanzhu suddenly remembered something, "The doctor said just now that Xia... well, my lord has a high fever, so the injury is gone, okay?" She almost made a mistake, but luckily she changed her words in time.The man in Tsing Yi lowered his sword eyebrows slightly.
"There is an ice cellar in my village. If it is helpful, you can use it at any time. Just tell Ning Zhuangtou, and I will say it."
"Ice Cellar!" The man in Tsing Yi raised his eyebrows, and finally a little joy appeared in his eyes.He hurried out and said something to the doctor and guards waiting outside the tent, and when he came in again, he seemed to have lifted his energy a lot.
"Do you remember everything?"
"Remember." Ning Wanzhu said lightly.
"Follow me." The man in Tsing Yi said flatly, leading her out of the tent.
Along the way, Ning Wanzhu only looked at the back of this Tsing Yi, and couldn't help thinking: Who is this person? ——Just now, Xia Weizhe also called the person in front of him "Little Grandpa". Is this the son of the Duke's family?She secretly recalled the social contacts in Beijing in her previous life.There are only so many Duke's Mansions in Beijing. I haven't heard of any Duke's heir who served in the army!
The man in Tsing Yi took her and walked in the front yard of Ning's Zhuangzi, as if walking in his own home. After turning around, he entered a spacious hall.There were more than a dozen people sitting on the floor in the hall, when they saw the man in Tsing Yi come in, they all stood up with a bang.
"Little Grandpa!" Everyone addressed in unison.
In front of everyone, the man in green gently took off the green handkerchief on his face.When Ning Wanzhu saw it, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, no wonder this person always covered his face with a green handkerchief, it was so unforgettable!The facial features of this man in Tsing Yi are almost exquisite and perfect, his fair face is graceful and elegant, and the two torches lit in the room are reflected in his deep eyes, the flames dance in his eyes.
However, Ning Wanzhu saw that this person was only seventeen or eighteen years old at most, just a young man.He speaks and does things with such a magnanimity, and he gets along with famous ministers like Xia Weizhe, which makes Ning Wanzhu even more curious about his identity.
"Men of the Geng Family Army, listen to the order!" The young man in Tsing Yi shouted, only to hear the sound of "swipe", all the soldiers in front of him knelt down on one knee, and fell in front of the young man in Tsing Yi.It made Ning Wanzhu stand out from the crowd.
"The purpose of the Geng Family Army—" the young man in Tsing Yi asked in a low voice.
"Righteousness comes first, what to do and what not to do." The soldiers answered neatly without any hesitation.
On the contrary, the young man in Tsing Yi hesitated. He clenched his hands into fists and seemed to hesitate for a moment before saying, "Lao San Yan, come out!"
Among the crowd, a middle-aged man with a medium build and a little thin stood out, with a firm expression and a determined gaze.Most of the soldiers around him looked at him with envious eyes.
"The rest go out!" The young man in Tsing Yi stopped drinking again.
Every remaining soldier stood up slowly and hugged Yan Laosan one by one, some of them still had tears in their eyes.The youngest Yan kept smiling, saying goodbye to everyone who went out.
Ning Wanzhu was secretly surprised. She vaguely guessed what the young man in Tsing Yi was going to do, but she couldn't believe it.Is this Yan Lao San really...
After everyone went out, only the young man in Tsing Yi, the youngest Yan Yan, and Ning Wanzhu were left here.
The young man in Tsing Yi turned his head, and Wen Yan said to Ning Wanzhu, "Can you? If the old man can't write the words tattooed on his face, that's fine, I can write it for you."
Ning Wanzhu was sure at this time, and could no longer bear the exclamation that was almost blurted out, "You, you want me to paint on people?"
"Yes!" Hearing this, the young man in Tsing Yi took a step forward.His tone was unusually firm, as if he was used to killing generals on the battlefield, and no one dared to refute his orders.
Ning Wanzhu has already fully understood that the young man in front of him, in order to save the boss Xia Weizhe, unexpectedly found a man of similar stature from among his accompanying soldiers, who could die as a substitute for Master Xia at any time.In order to be realistic and not let the people who followed Mr. Xia see the flaws, the young man in Tsing Yi thought of copying all the characteristics of Xia Weizhe, including tattooing and branding, onto this double.
As for the person who does the painting, the other party has already chosen him.
Ning Wanzhu couldn't help but turned pale with fear, stepped back a few steps, and said softly, "You, you are simply an evil ghost..."
The young man in Tsing Yi sneered, and said: "I just said the same thing, now I'm scared? Aren't you the head of the village right now? Don't you dare to be the Ning family's young lady who dares to be responsible?"
After hearing this, Ning Wanzhu was stunned.This young man didn't know himself, but he was about the same as Ye Momo, and he could tell his true eldest daughter's demeanor, so he casually said Miss Ning, but he hit the right one by mistake.She was thinking about it, but she heard the other party continue to provoke her, saying: "Why, are you afraid now? If you are afraid, I will find someone to pick up the old man's hand tendons, even if it hurts him to death, I will call him He draws it."
Hearing this, Ning Wanzhu felt the anger rushing up in her chest, washing away all the previous fear.However, I had made up my mind at first, and planned to leave my business alone and retreat, but suddenly, like the white foam left on the beach at low tide, it disappeared after two bubbles.
She sneered, and said: "That lord's life is his life, and this Yan Laosan's life is also his life. I don't know who you are, but you can think of such a 'good way'. It's just that it's against the law." I can't do things that are moral and ethical. If I have this bit of skill, I might as well think of a way to protect that lord to the end."
In her opinion, in the eyes of nature, there is no distinction between high and low in human life. If one life is taken in exchange for another life, it is against the morality of heaven and earth.In addition, she said bluntly, if she really couldn't protect Lord Xia, the so-called "Geng Family Army" in front of her, with so many people flocking to Du's Village, could it be that they are just for nothing?
Between the boy's eyes, a flame suddenly jumped and disappeared immediately.
Ning Wanzhu was stunned, feeling that the face of the person in front of him seemed to be covered with a mask, without sadness or joy, when he threw out a serious sentence of his own, it seemed that there was not even a layer of ripples in the ears of the person in front of him.
Unexpectedly, a voice sounded from the corner of the room, "Little girl, you are wrong, our little father-in-law is not doing anything outrageous. I am willing to help Mrs. Xia. I am not coerced by anyone. I just I'm following my heart."
It was Yan Laosan who was guarding the corner of the room who spoke.Hearing Ning Wanzhu's rebuttal to the young man, he walked to the middle of the hall, faced Ning Wanzhu and said, "This young lady is right, the villain does have the idea of exchanging his life for the life of Lord Xia. To save Lord Xia, he will It is equivalent to protecting the people in the world, and even protecting the brothers of my Geng family army—”
Yan Lao San was thin and not very tall, but when he said this, he couldn't help but straighten his body, "In ancient times, there were Cheng Ying and Gongsun Chujiu, who sacrificed their lives for righteousness, hidden orphans to save orphans, villains have always admired them most. I once heard the young man talk about the truth that the ancients said, to live what I want, to be righteous, to have what I want, you can’t have both, and those who sacrifice their lives for righteousness..."
Ning Wanzhu listened quietly at the side, looking at Yan Lao San who had a resolute expression on his face, and listened to his simple and heartfelt words.
The young man in Tsing Yi next to him, like a piece of delicate and elegant white porcelain, was lightly knocked open a thin crack, revealing a little bit of grief in his eyes.
