Queen Of Medicine
Chapter 14
The carriage and his party soon arrived at Tonglin villa. They didn't stay much, so they moved Jing Yuan into the master bedroom where they kept the reception state all the time. Zhuo Xi found a room, cleaned herself up a little, changed a set of clean clothes, and followed Zi Ran to Jing Yuan's bedroom. Without a medical coat, you can only change clean clothes first.
Everything she said is ready. She instructed Zi Ran to peel off Jing Yuan's coat, lit candles next to him and put on a basin of warm water. Then she said to Zi Ran and Jian Yi, "OK, leave the rest to me. You also go to wash and change a set of clean clothes and come in again to avoid cross infection."
When is it time for them to wash? Zi Ran and Jian Yi looked at each other and asked uncertainly, "wash?"
"Yes, you are all germs. If you don't wash them, you will infect the Hou Ye's wound, which will easily aggravate his condition." Although the germs and infections are a little incomprehensible, they can aggravate the Marquis's condition, so they can't. The son resolutely told the Marquis to retreat. Seeing the Marquis waving his hand, he whispered, "you listen to Xi'er." Xier? As soon as he heard the intimate address, he knew that his Marquis completely trusted her, so he pulled Jianyi out.
Zhuo Xi didn't notice the change in the name. She looked at the medicine juice aside. This is the initial hemp boiling powder, and she didn't know if it could work. But she couldn't care so much. She took a breath, added the liquor to the medicine juice, and fed it to Jing Yuan.
Jing Yuan was a little dizzy at the beginning. He opened his eyes and asked, "what's this?"
"Hemp boiling powder may make you sleepy for a while and make your operation less painful. But I don't know if it can work. If it can't work, just bear it. "
When she finished, she found that Jing Yuan had lost consciousness, which seemed to have some effect.
She called Xiaobai out and let him smell the wound. Xiaobai went out with his tail wagging.
Without delay, she immediately picked up the blade to disinfect it. As soon as she picked it up, she was startled by its weight, "Oh, what blade is this? It's so heavy and so thick that you can kill a pig. "
Zi Ran came in after washing quickly, and smelled the speech and replied, "girl Mingjian, this is the pig killing knife."
She was taking a sip of wine to spray on the blade. When he said, "cough," she coughed heavily twice. The wine gushed out, but it also choked some of the liquor in the throat.
Yi also came in at this time. Seeing that the Marquis was unconscious, he nervously wanted to pull out the knife, "what's the matter with the Marquis? Girl, what did you do to the Marquis? " Zi Ran pressed him. "Jianyi, don't be impulsive. The Marquis said everything. Listen to the girl."
"Your master trusts me so much. Tut Tut, why don't you trust me as a slave?" Zhuoxi slowly burned the blade on the fire.
"Hum, if you are against the Marquis, I will not let you go." Jian Yi said with his neck stuck.
"If I really wanted to do something, I would have done it. Don't worry, I can't beat you. " Zhuo Xi said coolly that she still remembered the feeling that he put the knife on her neck that night. If he didn't revenge a non gentleman, she had come up with more than 15 kinds of poisonous powder to torture people. No time, no time. Now with the centipede, you can get twice the result with half the effort. You must find time to prepare these powders these days! She made up her mind.
She cut the rotten meat next to the arrow with a knife, slowly took out the arrow, and asked unintentionally, "is this arrow made of copper? Isn't it too heavy? Why not use steel? "
"All weapons are made of copper. Why is it strange? What is steel? "
It turns out that people in this era have not mastered iron making technology, which is a waste. No wonder they only choose a small amount of copper ore and abandon a large amount of iron ore when digging copper ore.
She smiled and told Ziran to press the wound with a cloth. After the hemostasis was almost over, she sewed the wound with a needle and thread under the gaze of Ziran and Yi's eyes. Fortunately, the arrow did not cause a big wound to the lungs. Otherwise, open the back and sew the internal organs under the gaze of four eyes. It is estimated that they will kill her if they are not scared to death.
After dressing up, Zhuo Xi dictated a prescription for Jian Yi to catch. They were all heat clearing and detoxifying to prevent him from having a fever due to wound infection.
Jianyi reluctantly wrote down the prescription and went out.
Zhuo Xi let Zi Ran watch, went to the ear room to clean himself up, came in and said to Zi Ran, "from now on to Zi Shi, I'll keep it. You come and change me after midnight. I'll tell you what happens then. "
Zi Ran bowed deeply to her, "girl, I'm tired today. Please go and have a rest first. Zi Ran will always guard the marquis."
It seems that you still don't trust her?
Zhuo Xi said, "the first midnight is very important. He may have a fever. I'll give him medicine as appropriate. Go and have a rest first. When Yi comes back, leave two women to cook soup and medicine. "
Zi Ran thought for a while, said "thank you, girl" and went out.
In the middle of the night, he really started to burn and talked nonsense. He called "mother imperial concubine" and "don't kill me", waving his hands indiscriminately. Zhuo Xi grabbed his hand, he calmed down and murmured, "mother imperial concubine, don't go." Inexplicably, she seemed to see his murderous childhood. The pain seemed to slowly spread from his heart to her palm, and she didn't want to let go anymore.
When Zi Ran came in, Zhuo Xi grabbed his hand and fell asleep by the bed. The bowl on one side was empty. After thinking about it, he withdrew again.
In the morning, Zhuo Xi woke up and saw a pair of black eyes staring at her motionless. She said conditionally, "Hi, good morning." Then she immediately covered her mouth and nose. She didn't brush her teeth when she got up in the morning. Don't be so close, okay?
Jing Yuan grabbed her hand, stared into her eyes and slowly asked, "you are not Miss Wu jialiu. Does that childhood runaway story have anything to do with you?"
"It's okay, it's okay, of course it's okay." She quickly clarified. Don't ruin my reputation again, will you? The rumor of the waiter's bedroom has not been broken. It reminds people of a childhood sweetheart. What has she become? Is she going to live?
"Previously, the former king married the Marquis, and the woman has been mourning since because of sudden changes in her family. Under such circumstances, I'm afraid this marriage will come to naught. "
I had an engagement. I didn't get married because of an accident. Do you feel sorry now?
Zhuo Xi blurted out, "what a pity."
Jing Yuan looked at her and said, "Xi'er, if you don't mind, you and I will get married first, but your name may not be able to reach the jade plate brand of Zongbo in neifu for the time being. If one day, I can reach a settlement with brother Wang, I will send someone to dissolve the engagement with the woman, and then report it to the ancestral temple to officially establish you as Princess yuan. How about? "
Zhuo Xi was so frightened that her chin was about to fall off. What's the situation? Wake up and be proposed? What rhythm is this?
She pinched her thigh. It was painful. She didn't dream? She measured the temperature on his forehead with the back of her hand, but there was no fever.
She saved him, but she wouldn't let him promise by example, would she? Early in the morning, don't play like this. Isn't it the one-year period just agreed? Why did you suddenly propose? Want her to provide services for free and indefinitely? Nice try.
She took out her hands, immediately got up, jumped away and shouted, "Marquis, you're awake!" Then whispered, "aren't you awake? Think about it when you wake up, and I'll think about it. "
When she saw that Zi Ran was running in, she ran out quickly and told him, "Lord Hou just woke up and give him some light porridge."
Jing Yuan looked at her running back and said in his heart, Xi'er, if the Marquis and brother Wang can't reconcile completely, you will become the wife of a disorderly subject and thief. If you don't agree, it's my impulse.
He didn't know why he woke up early in the morning and felt like something he had been waiting for appeared. He wanted to hold her tightly in his hand. He knew that the softest place in his heart was slowly opening, and he didn't want to close it again. But seeing her frightened and running away, why did she seem very angry?
While Zhuo Xi was sleeping in the dark, Zi Ran knocked on her door outside. Shu Yue whispered to him, "Lord Ziran, Miss won't come back until dawn. Please let her sleep a little more."
"Lord Hou is hot again. Come and have a look, Miss Zhuo Xi."
Zhuo Xi reluctantly got up and opened the door. "Is the Marquis really hot?"
Didn't we just reach an agreement with him, without cheating or suspicion? She's not suspicious. What is she subconsciously afraid of?
Zi Ran said anxiously, "girl, the Marquis is still well in front. After drinking porridge at noon, he said he wanted to rest. Now he's hot."
"I'll come right after I wash." Her poor sleep seems to start the rhythm of insomnia again.
Zhuo Xi dawdled into Jing Yuan's house. She always suspected that she had heard wrong when she proposed in the morning. She doesn't adapt to the rhythm of changing her face. Although the two have reached a consensus, it is only a work agreement, which does not involve personal feelings.
When she approached Jing Yuan, he was sleeping with his eyes closed. She put her hand on his forehead as if it were hot or not. Without a thermometer, she could not determine whether Jing Yuan was still burning, so she had to get close to her and put her forehead against his forehead. Seems to have a fever. She said a word to herself. When she opened her eyes, she saw that Jing Yuan had opened her eyes and looked at her. She retreated in horror and said with a smile, "I, I just want to see if you're hot."
He said sarcastically, "why, I can't get the pulse, so I can only judge it in this way?"
"What if you can't feel your pulse? I didn't save your life? "
"Have you forgotten who Ben Hou was hurt for?"
"..." Zhuo Xi shrugged and said, "well, you won. Now you can tell me what you had for lunch? "
Jing Yuan said coldly, "I drank porridge and medicine."
"What's your tone? Do you doubt me? "
"Ben Hou's life is in your hands. How dare you doubt you?" Jing Yuan closed his eyes and didn't see her. He was inexplicably angry.
She looked suspiciously at his face. It was a little bad, but she would be a little pale after losing too much blood last night. Sure enough, it's good to be a leader. There's no reason to lose your temper. Healing him depends on his face.
She went out inexplicably, found Zi Ran and asked him to bring some porridge and medicine for lunch. She wanted to check it.
Zi Ran brought the porridge and medicine in accordance with the words. She smelled and tasted it. She felt there was no problem, and asked, "is there anything abnormal except these?"
Zi Ran thought for a while and replied, "No. But I don't know why. When Hou Ye woke up early in the morning, he looked like a stranger. Maybe he was hurt and in a bad mood. "
Are you in a bad mood? She felt her nose a little guilty.
Forget it, I can't find anything suspicious, and the fever is always a burst. Zhuo Xi didn't care too much, just said to continue to observe closely“ Oh, by the way, bring that prescription and I'll make some adjustments. "
Zi Ran went out to find Jian Yi. The prescription had been held in his hand. However, Jian Yi ran all the way into the courtyard, "Hou ye, Hou Ye."
Zi Ran pulled him, "what's up? So loud? "
Jing Yuan opened his eyes, "what's up?"
Zi Ran came forward and put the pillow behind him. He propped up and leaned against him.
Jian Yi said, "he Shu came back with a hundred infantry and dozens of slaves."
"How's it going?"
"They also encountered a small group of pursuers, but fortunately there were no casualties. No one should be watching when you move here. " Jian Yi took a look at Zhuo Xi, "how do they settle down? Please show me."
Jing Yuan took a look at Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi understood and got up and said, "talk slowly. I'll go to the kitchen and have a look."
"Who let you go?" His face was still cold.
I'm not leaving? Aren't you dealing with business? Look at his cold face, Zhuo Xi is also a little angry. Who is he angry to show? She also resumed her business attitude. "I don't know what else the Marquis has to say?"
Jing Yuan said to Jian Yi, "the soldiers are handed over to Yu Liang to settle down first. As for how to deal with these slaves, it is entirely up to Zhuo Xi Yishi to deal with them." He especially emphasized the word "Yi Shi", as if to remind her of her position.
Zhuo Xi was stunned and immediately got angry, "why give it to me? This is not my responsibility. "
"Didn't you save the slaves?"
She paused, as if.
"If not, Ben Hou will let them go back and live and die."
You're cruel. She gnashed her teeth and said, "however, if they are all arranged to live in the villa, I wonder if the capacity of the villa is large enough to support these people?" She's new here and doesn't know the situation in the villa. Besides, he has a group of officers and soldiers. It's better to count hundreds of people. Can she live there?
"Don't worry, Ben Hou's family is bigger than you think." Jing Yuan still said with a cold face, "however, I don't raise idle people. Since they are slaves, they should bring value to me."
Zhuo Xi understood, "my subordinates obey. Please ask Lord Jian Yi to call the steward of the villa. I need to know the situation in the villa before I can assign tasks to them."
Jing Yuan's eyes flashed a trace of appreciation, waved and let them go down.
Zhuo Xi reached the yard where the slaves were located and saw a crowd of black crows standing in the yard. Qumeng immediately ran over, "sister, sister!"
She touched the kid's head. "Are you okay?"
She has met uncle Ma, who is the head of the group. She knows her, but Uncle Ma hasn't seen her. He came forward from me and introduced her, "girl, Da en, my name is Ma San. I don't know what to call the girl?"
"My name is Zhuo Xi."
"Thanks for saving your life, Miss Zhuo Xi." He took the lead in kneeling down. All the people behind him knelt down and shouted in unison, "thank you for saving your life, Miss Zhuo Xi."
Zhuo Xi quickly picked up Ma San, "get up quickly."
"Miss, I can't repay you for your kindness. Girl, but I have a mission. I'll follow it. "
"Listening to Uncle Ma's talk, it seems that he is not an ordinary slave."
"Ma San was ashamed. I was also a family of petty officials. But my father was implicated in the ink corruption case years ago, so I was demoted to a slave."
"I see." No wonder slaves regard him as a leader, who is qualified to lead. Zhuo Xi said to him, "although I saved you, I'm not the head of the family in this villa, so I hope you'll have to live on your own and don't add too much trouble to the master."
Ma San said, "it's natural. Although we escaped, we would have been slaves all our lives if we had no wealth documents. The world is so big that we have nowhere to go. We can provide us with a place to live here for the time being. We are very grateful. It's nothing to say about opening up wasteland and farming. "
"That's very good. I've asked the steward. There are more than 100 temples outside the villa, and the six surrounding hills belong to the marquis. You can go to reclaim and cultivate by yourself. I'll squeeze in this small courtyard recently. You can choose another feng shui treasure land nearby to build a new house in the future. "
She pulled over the steward Wu next to her. "This is the steward Wu in the villa. You can consult him if you can't make up your mind on all matters."
Ma San said, "thank you, steward Wu. Thank you, girl. After all, we are fugitive slaves. We live in the villa for a long time for fear of bringing disaster to our master. We have discussed it. In a few days, I will wait until the terrain in the mountain is explored, choose a flat land to build a house, and then I will recuperate here in the future. "
Zhuo Xi looked at the slaves, men and women, old and young, "it's good. Although there is no prosperity of the city here, there is freedom to avoid the world."
"What a seclusion freedom!" Ma San bowed again, "thank you for your kindness."
"The Marquis has promised to support you with the tools you need to open the mountain and split the house. You can find steward Wu at that time."
"Thank you, steward Wu."
"Well," steward Wu nodded proudly.
"Wu is in charge. The Marquis has told them to choose by themselves. The next thing will trouble you. "
"Yes, Lord zhuoxi." Steward Wu saluted respectfully on the surface, but there was a little criticism in his heart. Why did he take the Marquis to oppress him?
"OK, you can discuss. I have something to go first." Zhuo Xi turned to go out, listened to the excited noise behind her and smiled.
The next moment I heard Meng running up, "sister, I want to go with you."
"Are you alone? There are no relatives here? "
"Yes, I am an orphan. I was sold to the palace as a slave." This sentence seems familiar.
"You follow me? What can you do? "
"I can do anything. I can help you clean the house, run errands, and collect medicine for you!"
Zhuo Xi thought for a moment. Shu Yue was so afraid of the little white snake that she didn't dare to approach her easily. Some things really need a bold and careful little boy to do.
"Well, you'll follow me from today on. But remember, don't run around. "
"You must listen to your sister when you go to Meng. You won't run around."
Their conversation faded away.
The discussion in the yard became louder and more excited.
Steward Wu, who has always been used to bullying in the villa, suddenly shouted, "be quiet!"
The yard was suddenly quiet, "you are their leader, aren't you?" Steward Wu said to Ma San.
Ma San arched his hand and said, "Ma is not talented. They trust him."
"I don't care whether you are talented or not. Look at them and don't let them cause me trouble. Although the Marquis told you to eat and drink freely here, if you runaway slaves leak the news and the officials trace it up, you will not have enough heads to lose. "
"Yes, yes, yes." Ma repeatedly promised, "we won't cause trouble. Tomorrow we'll go to the mountains to find a foothold. It won't bother you for too long."
"Hum, don't forget, you are fugitive slaves. Hide yourself well, and don't lose your life that you finally got back. "
He shook his hand, turned and left, and said, "Lord Hou doesn't know what to think. He actually picked up a group of useless slaves and wants to eat and drink for free. He thinks I'm guarding Jinshan and Yinshan here?"
The slaves who stood in front heard it. Although they were used to all kinds of sarcasm, one man couldn't help but say, "what's the matter with the Marquis? Today is the Lord. If the king gives an edict tomorrow, he may become a disorderly subject and thief, not even a slave. " The tone was so sharp that steward Wu understood as soon as he heard it. His face changed, "what are you talking about?!"
Ma San quickly grabbed the speaker and shook his head. The people were silent.
Steward Wu shook his sleeves and walked out of the gate of the courtyard.
Everything she said is ready. She instructed Zi Ran to peel off Jing Yuan's coat, lit candles next to him and put on a basin of warm water. Then she said to Zi Ran and Jian Yi, "OK, leave the rest to me. You also go to wash and change a set of clean clothes and come in again to avoid cross infection."
When is it time for them to wash? Zi Ran and Jian Yi looked at each other and asked uncertainly, "wash?"
"Yes, you are all germs. If you don't wash them, you will infect the Hou Ye's wound, which will easily aggravate his condition." Although the germs and infections are a little incomprehensible, they can aggravate the Marquis's condition, so they can't. The son resolutely told the Marquis to retreat. Seeing the Marquis waving his hand, he whispered, "you listen to Xi'er." Xier? As soon as he heard the intimate address, he knew that his Marquis completely trusted her, so he pulled Jianyi out.
Zhuo Xi didn't notice the change in the name. She looked at the medicine juice aside. This is the initial hemp boiling powder, and she didn't know if it could work. But she couldn't care so much. She took a breath, added the liquor to the medicine juice, and fed it to Jing Yuan.

When she finished, she found that Jing Yuan had lost consciousness, which seemed to have some effect.
She called Xiaobai out and let him smell the wound. Xiaobai went out with his tail wagging.
Without delay, she immediately picked up the blade to disinfect it. As soon as she picked it up, she was startled by its weight, "Oh, what blade is this? It's so heavy and so thick that you can kill a pig. "
Zi Ran came in after washing quickly, and smelled the speech and replied, "girl Mingjian, this is the pig killing knife."
She was taking a sip of wine to spray on the blade. When he said, "cough," she coughed heavily twice. The wine gushed out, but it also choked some of the liquor in the throat.
Yi also came in at this time. Seeing that the Marquis was unconscious, he nervously wanted to pull out the knife, "what's the matter with the Marquis? Girl, what did you do to the Marquis? " Zi Ran pressed him. "Jianyi, don't be impulsive. The Marquis said everything. Listen to the girl."
"Your master trusts me so much. Tut Tut, why don't you trust me as a slave?" Zhuoxi slowly burned the blade on the fire.
"Hum, if you are against the Marquis, I will not let you go." Jian Yi said with his neck stuck.
"If I really wanted to do something, I would have done it. Don't worry, I can't beat you. " Zhuo Xi said coolly that she still remembered the feeling that he put the knife on her neck that night.

Fortunately, the arrow did not cause a big wound to the lungs. Otherwise, open the back and sew the internal organs under the gaze of four eyes. It is estimated that they will kill her if they are not scared to death.
After dressing up, Zhuo Xi dictated a prescription for Jian Yi to catch. They were all heat clearing and detoxifying to prevent him from having a fever due to wound infection.
Jianyi reluctantly wrote down the prescription and went out.

Are you in a bad mood? She felt her nose a little guilty.

Zi Ran pulled him, "what's up? So loud? "
Jing Yuan opened his eyes, "what's up?"
Zi Ran came forward and put the pillow behind him. He propped up and leaned against him.
Jian Yi said, "he Shu came back with a hundred infantry and dozens of slaves."
"How's it going?"
"They also encountered a small group of pursuers, but fortunately there were no casualties. No one should be watching when you move here. " Jian Yi took a look at Zhuo Xi, "how do they settle down? Please show me."
Jing Yuan took a look at Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi understood and got up and said, "talk slowly. I'll go to the kitchen and have a look."
"Who let you go?" His face was still cold.
I'm not leaving? Aren't you dealing with business? Look at his cold face, Zhuo Xi is also a little angry. Who is he angry to show? She also resumed her business attitude. "I don't know what else the Marquis has to say?"
Jing Yuan said to Jian Yi, "the soldiers are handed over to Yu Liang to settle down first. As for how to deal with these slaves, it is entirely up to Zhuo Xi Yishi to deal with them." He especially emphasized the word "Yi Shi", as if to remind her of her position.
Zhuo Xi was stunned and immediately got angry, "why give it to me? This is not my responsibility. "
"Didn't you save the slaves?"
She paused, as if.
"If not, Ben Hou will let them go back and live and die."
You're cruel. She gnashed her teeth and said, "however, if they are all arranged to live in the villa, I wonder if the capacity of the villa is large enough to support these people?" She's new here and doesn't know the situation in the villa. Besides, he has a group of officers and soldiers. It's better to count hundreds of people. Can she live there?
"Don't worry, Ben Hou's family is bigger than you think." Jing Yuan still said with a cold face, "however, I don't raise idle people. Since they are slaves, they should bring value to me."
Zhuo Xi understood, "my subordinates obey. Please ask Lord Jian Yi to call the steward of the villa. I need to know the situation in the villa before I can assign tasks to them."
Jing Yuan's eyes flashed a trace of appreciation, waved and let them go down.
Zhuo Xi reached the yard where the slaves were located and saw a crowd of black crows standing in the yard. Qumeng immediately ran over, "sister, sister!"
She touched the kid's head. "Are you okay?"
She has met uncle Ma, who is the head of the group. She knows her, but Uncle Ma hasn't seen her. He came forward from me and introduced her, "girl, Da en, my name is Ma San. I don't know what to call the girl?"
"My name is Zhuo Xi."
"Thanks for saving your life, Miss Zhuo Xi." He took the lead in kneeling down. All the people behind him knelt down and shouted in unison, "thank you for saving your life, Miss Zhuo Xi."
Zhuo Xi quickly picked up Ma San, "get up quickly."
"Miss, I can't repay you for your kindness. Girl, but I have a mission. I'll follow it. "
"Listening to Uncle Ma's talk, it seems that he is not an ordinary slave."
"Ma San was ashamed. I was also a family of petty officials. But my father was implicated in the ink corruption case years ago, so I was demoted to a slave."
"I see." No wonder slaves regard him as a leader, who is qualified to lead. Zhuo Xi said to him, "although I saved you, I'm not the head of the family in this villa, so I hope you'll have to live on your own and don't add too much trouble to the master."
Ma San said, "it's natural. Although we escaped, we would have been slaves all our lives if we had no wealth documents. The world is so big that we have nowhere to go. We can provide us with a place to live here for the time being. We are very grateful. It's nothing to say about opening up wasteland and farming. "
"That's very good. I've asked the steward. There are more than 100 temples outside the villa, and the six surrounding hills belong to the marquis. You can go to reclaim and cultivate by yourself. I'll squeeze in this small courtyard recently. You can choose another feng shui treasure land nearby to build a new house in the future. "
She pulled over the steward Wu next to her. "This is the steward Wu in the villa. You can consult him if you can't make up your mind on all matters."
Ma San said, "thank you, steward Wu. Thank you, girl. After all, we are fugitive slaves. We live in the villa for a long time for fear of bringing disaster to our master. We have discussed it. In a few days, I will wait until the terrain in the mountain is explored, choose a flat land to build a house, and then I will recuperate here in the future. "
Zhuo Xi looked at the slaves, men and women, old and young, "it's good. Although there is no prosperity of the city here, there is freedom to avoid the world."
"What a seclusion freedom!" Ma San bowed again, "thank you for your kindness."
"The Marquis has promised to support you with the tools you need to open the mountain and split the house. You can find steward Wu at that time."
"Thank you, steward Wu."
"Well," steward Wu nodded proudly.
"Wu is in charge. The Marquis has told them to choose by themselves. The next thing will trouble you. "
"Yes, Lord zhuoxi." Steward Wu saluted respectfully on the surface, but there was a little criticism in his heart. Why did he take the Marquis to oppress him?
"OK, you can discuss. I have something to go first." Zhuo Xi turned to go out, listened to the excited noise behind her and smiled.
The next moment I heard Meng running up, "sister, I want to go with you."
"Are you alone? There are no relatives here? "
"Yes, I am an orphan. I was sold to the palace as a slave." This sentence seems familiar.
"You follow me? What can you do? "
"I can do anything. I can help you clean the house, run errands, and collect medicine for you!"
Zhuo Xi thought for a moment. Shu Yue was so afraid of the little white snake that she didn't dare to approach her easily. Some things really need a bold and careful little boy to do.
"Well, you'll follow me from today on. But remember, don't run around. "
"You must listen to your sister when you go to Meng. You won't run around."
Their conversation faded away.
The discussion in the yard became louder and more excited.
Steward Wu, who has always been used to bullying in the villa, suddenly shouted, "be quiet!"
The yard was suddenly quiet, "you are their leader, aren't you?" Steward Wu said to Ma San.
Ma San arched his hand and said, "Ma is not talented. They trust him."
"I don't care whether you are talented or not. Look at them and don't let them cause me trouble. Although the Marquis told you to eat and drink freely here, if you runaway slaves leak the news and the officials trace it up, you will not have enough heads to lose. "
"Yes, yes, yes." Ma repeatedly promised, "we won't cause trouble. Tomorrow we'll go to the mountains to find a foothold. It won't bother you for too long."
"Hum, don't forget, you are fugitive slaves. Hide yourself well, and don't lose your life that you finally got back. "
He shook his hand, turned and left, and said, "Lord Hou doesn't know what to think. He actually picked up a group of useless slaves and wants to eat and drink for free. He thinks I'm guarding Jinshan and Yinshan here?"
The slaves who stood in front heard it. Although they were used to all kinds of sarcasm, one man couldn't help but say, "what's the matter with the Marquis? Today is the Lord. If the king gives an edict tomorrow, he may become a disorderly subject and thief, not even a slave. " The tone was so sharp that steward Wu understood as soon as he heard it. His face changed, "what are you talking about?!"
Ma San quickly grabbed the speaker and shook his head. The people were silent.
Steward Wu shook his sleeves and walked out of the gate of the courtyard.
