Chapter 22: Two Guards
A somewhat awkward Qing dialect, as well as blonde hair that does not shy away from it, even if it is Li Qing's dress, it is very disobedient.
As if sensing Imperial Physician Xu's gaze, the man actually looked in this direction, and beckoned to Imperial Physician Xu with a smile.
"Did you see that?" asked Imperial Physician Xu, turning to look at the two guards next to him.
"Ah, he's the master of the magistrate of Mochizuki Town, and he comes here to eat at this time of the day. The guard said,
"When I stayed in the hotel before, Lord Du Wei asked his subordinates to investigate, and this person's background is clean, and he is from the Western Regions. ”
"Ahh ”
That being said, Imperial Physician Xu still doesn't like this foreigner very much, and inexplicably he can't have a good impression.
"Oh yes, I'll go out, and if Lord Lieutenant comes back, tell him I'll go to the pharmacy. ”
Doctor Xu instructed.
It is normal for an imperial doctor to go to the pharmacy, but considering that Mochizuki Town is very close to the army, the escort proposed to find someone to escort Imperial Doctor Xu, but the latter politely refused.
"It's still blue and white outside, and it's going to be fine. Lord Tisi's safety is more important. ”
After walking a few steps downstairs, I smelled the pungent smell of spices when I passed by the stranger, and I couldn't help but sneeze, but under the smell of spices was an imperceptible fish.
Mochizuki is not close to the sea, how can there be such a heavy fish?
"Is there something on my face? What are you looking at?"
The foreigner asked.
Imperial Doctor Xu was a little embarrassed, there may be various reasons for the fishy smell, drinking medicine, diet can be caused, just because of a fishy smell to judge that people have problems is very unrealistic.
"No, nothing? It's just that the guest is taking medication, and it's a fishy-based prescription?"
Doctor Xu asked.
"yes, how do you know?" asked the stranger in surprise.
"I have had a hidden illness since I was a child, this is a prescription prescribed by a doctor, although I am no longer sick, but I need spices to cover the meaning, so that you can see and smile. As he spoke, he turned around,
"But this spice covers the taste, first, it has no effect, and secondly, it consumes a lot, and it needs to be renewed every day.
"This ......"
————
Imperial Physician Xu has been gone for a long time, seeing the sunset, the people who went out to explore the road have not returned for a long time, Chen Yan doesn't know where to go, and Imperial Physician Xu is gone.
Inexplicably, Tao Ziyuan felt flustered and restless, as if something was going to happen, and sure enough, this premonition was quickly verified.
A commotion downstairs attracted Tao Zikite's attention, pushed open the door and walked out, and the two guards at the door saw her come out and called "Lord Tisi." ”
As a newcomer to the Storm Pavilion, although he is the youngest, the identity of the Tisi is really not fake, and the person who dared to refute the face of Lord Du Wei back then is probably this Tisi, so in terms of attitude, these guards are much more respectful than when they came.
"What's going on downstairs? Why is it so noisy. Tao Ziyuan didn't seem to care about this, but was more interested in the hustle and bustle downstairs.
"It seems that I am looking for Imperial Doctor Xu. The guard said.
"Imperial Physician Xu?" Tao Ziyuan wondered, "Is Imperial Physician Xu from Mochizuki Town?"
"Probably not. ”
"Imperial Physician Xu is from the south, how can he be from Mochizuki Town?"
"Since it's not, then how do they know about Imperial Doctor Xu?Where did Imperial Doctor Xu go?" Tao Ziyuan looked at the two people, and the latter looked at each other,
"This, we also ...... I don't know very well, Imperial Doctor Xu went out to the local pharmacy and didn't let us follow, and besides, Lord Du Wei asked us to take care of Lord Tisi's safety. ”
Tao Zikite: "......"
When he heard Lord Duwei, Tao Ziyuan had already understood why the two guards knew that those people were coming to find Imperial Doctor Xu, but they hadn't made any moves.
Doctor Xu has something to do with them, but if something happens to him, it means that he has not carried out Chen Yan's instructions, and they can't afford to bear the consequences.
"What about the others, where have they gone?" Tao Ziyuan asked, even if he was the Tisi of the Storm Pavilion, in the eyes of those people, he was a ten-year-old child who didn't know anything about the world.
"The others received a message from the Lieutenant not long ago and have left. ”
Chen ...... The Lieutenant is back?"
"No, it's a thousand miles of sound, we have someone here who has a good ear, and we rushed over after receiving the news. ”
This reminded Tao Ziyuan, yes, how could the guards in the Fengbo Pavilion be ordinary people?
"Then what are the advantages of the two of you?" Tao Ziyuan asked expectantly.
"I'm fast, which means I'm fast. ”
"I can control the fire, but I'm not as strong as Lord Rongzhu's abilities. The worship when he mentioned Rong Zhu was in his eyes, and he was a little shy.
Tao Ziyuan was stunned, the two people left by Chen Yan were simply the standard for escaping, one set fire, the other walked quickly, it was difficult to die under normal circumstances.
As he was talking, the people downstairs had already gone upstairs in a menacing manner, and walked directly to the door of Tao Ziyuan's room.
"Where's the old man, hand him over!"
"Stand down! you must not be rude here!" The fire-controlled guards blocked those people in front, and the swift ones protected Tao Zikite behind them.
Even so, they only claimed to be nobles, and did not indicate the identity of the Wind Wave Pavilion, it seems that they don't want people to know their whereabouts.
"Since you are a nobleman, you should understand the truth of killing people to pay for your life, Mr. Zhan was poisoned by your people, and his life and death are still uncertain, should you give us an explanation!"
The angry appearance of the official fell in Tao Ziyuan's eyes, and there was even more momentum of not giving up without handing over people.
Because of his relatively short stature, Tao Zikite could only pull the hem of the swift guard's clothes.
"After a while, you can find Imperial Doctor Xu while those people are not paying attention, tell him the situation, and see what the hell is going on. ”
"This ......"
The guard hesitated for a moment, it was a little ridiculous to listen to a ten-year-old child's command, but ...... She's Tisi.
"Do as I say, if something happens, say it's my idea, and I'll explain it to the captain. Tao Ziyuan said.
The guards summed up Tao Zikite's words and made sense, and he also thought of this layer, how could a national doctor holy hand be easily poisoned, it must be a false accusation.
The guard nodded, and Tao Ziyuan walked over to the guard who controlled the fire, making everyone pay attention to the ten-year-old girl.
"Do the officials have the approval of the county order to arrest people?" Tao Ziyuan came up and asked, which suddenly made the officials who came to arrest people confused.
Where did such a ten-year-old come from? But the guard's respectful look made it clear that she was supposed to be the master.
"The prescription was given by your people, and if something happens, it is naturally your people who are responsible!" The official's tone was much better, but he was still arrogant, but the avoidance of talking about the official document also completely confirmed Tao Ziyuan's thoughts.
These people, there is no approval!
The people from the government came last night because of Xiaoyi's affairs, although it was impossible for Chen Yan to identify himself everywhere, but according to the county order, there was no trouble with them, it should be Chen Yan who said something to him.
Even if it is not the identity of the captain, it is possible to show the brand of the Storm Pavilion, the status of the Storm Pavilion is unique in the Li Qing Dynasty, so no matter what, the county order will not trouble them, this will not do him any good, and maybe it will anger Chen Yan.
Unless...... These people are taking advantage of Chen Yan's absence to find fault on purpose.
