Chapter Seventy-One: The Twilight of the High-Rise Building

At night, the city is brightly lit, but there are far fewer people on the streets than in summer and autumn, and the noise from the far south drifts to the top of the regular houses from time to time, and the further north you go, the quieter it becomes. The drum of the second watch was beaten, the car crossed the embankment, and the withered yellow grass at the head of the bridge was covered with a layer of frost under the moonlight, as white as snow.

Su Huihui lay on Sheng Yunyi's body without any image, listening to him introduce the source of the medicinal materials he took from the Guogong Mansion. This Fan Taozhi was given to Chang Xuanyi by Yan Huayu nine years ago, collected from the extreme south, with the miraculous effect of clearing the heart and calming the mind, I don't know what chance was obtained by the merchants of the Yan family, and secretly sent to Fanjing. The old marquis remembered the grievances of the previous generation, so he gave the medicinal materials to the Dingguo Mansion, and wanted to make some efforts for the Chang family's aunt and grandmother's madness, but the Dingguo Duke was reluctant to spend it on his sister's brain after getting it, sealed it in the zĂ i medicine storehouse, and ordered that only the descendants of the descendants could be used to save the emergency. The Yan family of the Guogong Mansion has no obligation to take care of the housework, and it has been benevolent and righteous to be able to leave things to them, so the relationship between the two parties has become more and more harmonious.

"That bottle of potion made by Muzhi was also nine years ago, ......will it be invalid?"

Sheng Yunyi said: "There is an air-dried one, I will go back and silently under it, you and Wu Xin will look at it again, just in case there is a loss." ”

Su Huihui was still indignant, "How can my master be like this, he didn't even mention it to me, I didn't believe he forgot." ”

His eyes flashed subtly, "Mr. Qin's book is written in detail everywhere, and the words are also excellent. ”

She smirked, "Of course. I have seen the codex left by the old lady Wu in the imperial doctor's office, but it was written in three books in the form of a letter but not in the letter. But he seemed to leave it for someone, and he didn't send a single one, and he didn't seem to care much. The codex recounts his decades of medical experience, although the small block is round and delicate, the words are jumping and jerky, and sometimes there are detours to express a simple matter, which is far worse than my master. ”

"Actually, you should think about whether you should call the bell doctor holding your master's handwriting Senior Brother. ”

Su Huihui said categorically: "It's impossible, my master is just outside behind my back and accepts disciples, and I don't recognize it! Now Yuxiao Mountain is alone, if I don't admit it, it is useless for him to take the book to the door of the medicine house and call it." ”

Sheng Yunyi stopped hitting her, and changed his words: "You returned the book to Wu Xin?"

Su Hui said: "I don't want to, it was the envoy of the Zhang Yuan who entered my room with the key and sent someone to deliver the book to the Wu Mansion." ”

He pondered for a moment, then laughed and said: "Wu Xin is an interesting person, he was originally the queen's person, and he has a lot of means, and he has done a lot of things to hide from his superiors and subordinates. But there is talent, otherwise he would not sit in the position of the left court. He is a native of Yuzhou, and on this errand, Xuan Ze may put him back to his hometown for a few months. When you contact him, be careful not to let him talk, after he left the Imperial Medical Department, he has been in peace for a few years, and if something happens when he is reactivated, thousands of miles away, I can't stop you from trouble. ”

Su warmed his head: "Thank you for reminding me, I know." ”

"You will leave in more than 20 days, and after you finish the first mist business, you will rest more in the official residence. I was tired of you the other day, is the injury on your arm healed?"

She rolled up her sleeves to show him, the scabs on her fair skin were about to fall off, and he gently stroked it with his fingertips, his eyes apologetic.

*

The days passed like a white horse, and in a blink of an eye, it was the third day of the lunar month. As soon as Jiaping arrived, the first snow of the year also fell from the light gray sky, reflecting the imperial capital is elegant and clean, clear and exquisite. Hundreds of thousands of households were surrounded within the city walls, and the housewives wore cotton jackets and winter boots to the market to buy vegetables when the morning came, and the children guarded the newly made new artillery in the flower cannon shed, and before dinner they crackled in the courtyard, and the colored paper was covered with peach blossoms all over the ground.

Su Huihui couldn't stand the sound of firecrackers the most, so he took the maid to cover her ears and get into the car, telling the coachman to go quickly. The carriage was loaded with a lot of things, and all the clothes and medicinal materials and needles were placed in the carriage, but fortunately, she was the only female doctor in the team, and she was given a small car alone, and she was designated to meet at the West Pole Gate of the outer city at a certain time.

She was not diligent by nature, and only when she arrived at the end of the day did she lock the official house and slowly sway along Changping Street to the west of the city. Thinking about what she forgot to bring along the way, she weighed the broken silver in her purse, the price of goods in the south was very expensive, she brought enough silver tickets, and decided to save some flowers.

Sheng Yunyi has been very busy since she came back from Qingtai Mountain, she stayed in the palace for a few days, looked at the Fan Taozhi prescription he asked Fu Yu to send, and got Wu Xin's letter, so she confirmed that it was feasible. In the meantime, Sheng Yunyi looked at the excerpts in the study of Mingshui Yuan every day, she was not good to disturb, the Si Li Admiral Lu Li came to the duty office once, and asked her with a smile if she had anything to give to His Majesty.

She felt that the news in the palace had probably spread, and even the last time she went to the Tai Hospital to check the schoolwork of the new imperial doctors and officials, Ling Yang deliberately avoided talking about it when she saw her, but there were a hundred curiosities in her words.

Su Huihui felt that she couldn't do anything if she pretended not to see, there were so many pairs of eyes in the palace and the official office, it was better for her to avoid them for a while. Since the last time she came back from the Dingguo Mansion with him, they hadn't seen each other again before leaving, and she stared at the snow outside the window, a little lost.

Before the time difference, the West Pole Gate was in sight. The car got closer, and the guards at the door were holding a brand-new hand stove and greeting the driver with a smile on his face. The two old men stood in front of a car and stared at each other angrily, and the people around them spoke to themselves as if they didn't see them.

Su Huihui got out of the car to greet his fellow travelers, and when he saw two familiar figures, he couldn't help but remember that when he handled the handover of the pharmacy last time, Qi Ming said that he wanted Lin Qi to go together, and it was really done at this time, and he didn't know how to make Wu Xin listen to it.

She leaned over with an umbrella, and was about to ask Fang Yi and Wu Xin why they were arguing, when her shoulders were pressed suddenly, and she turned back to Chen Hua's delicate melon seed face.

"Why don't you tell me when you're leaving? It's been months since I've been gone, and I've slipped out of my father to see you off. Master Su's eyes are not good, I can't see it when I'm so big standing here. ”

Su warmed up and held her hand, "Young Master Yan said that you will stay there for two months at most, and it won't be long, I will bring you a pearl bracelet, what color do you want?"

Chen Hua sighed: "You can buy it for whoever you want, and you can still think of me." ”

Su Huihui couldn't wait to cover her mouth, Qi Ming had already looked over, "Doctor Su......"

She tried to fool her: "Doctor Qi, have the Yan people's people arrived?"

Lin Qizhi preemptively said: "The first group of people has already left the city, we are the last group, Yan Gongzi is still in the city, and he said that he will come over later." Your Excellency, you see, the hand stove in the hands of the two soldiers was bought by the person who first bought the car, and I don't know how kind they are to us. ”

Su Hui smiled and said nothing, Qi Ming suddenly made a gesture to signal her to go to the root of the city wall outside the zhang, she asked Chen Hua to wait a while, but the other party bit his ear and said:

"You leave me behind, who will relieve you later?"

"What ......"

Su Huihui didn't have time to think about it, and walked over there while turning the handle of the umbrella, "Doctor Qi is looking for me?"

Qi Ming Qingjun's face suddenly turned red, he took out a dark brown box from the cloth bag he carried diagonally, gritted his teeth and said: "Doctor Su, you left this medicine box when you left the pharmacy, we have no one to use it, thinking that this box is delicate and lightweight, it is very suitable to take with you when you go out, so I put it in the bag and want to return it to you...... If Dr. Su has enough things, put them back in the car when he gets off. ”

Su Huihui took the medicine box that was half smaller than the one she was using now, and said with a smile: "Doctor Qi bothered. When I went to the hospital, I was afraid that people would say that the medicine box and medicine utensils I brought were things that were not in the market, so I bought a new big one, but it was not as easy to use as before. ”

Chen Hua pretended to look up at the snow and secretly pushed her behind her back.

She looked at it twice, Qi Ming was even more embarrassed, Su Huihui looked up at him steadily, and slowly opened the lid of the box.

The medicine box was clearly washed and sunburned, and a layer of white silk was stacked inside, and a red plum blossom lay on it. The flower branch is three inches long, and the bottom end is charred black, which is the mark of burning, and a few drops of white wax are carefully wrapped in the section. The flowers treated in this way often bloom undefeated, which shows that it took a lot of effort.

Su Huihui couldn't help but want to ask Chen Hua what to do now, but Qi Ming had already spoken: "Doctor Su, in fact, I have always been ......"

She snapped the lid of the medicine box and said in the gentlest tone: "I don't need this now, so I'll give it to you, the flowers inside are beautiful, you can put them in the carriage." ”

Chen Hua coughed: "Xiao Qi, in fact, Doctor Su has been-" She pushed Su Hui far away, "I saw her and a son eating on the second floor of Mo Ciju last time, and that son paid the bill." ”

Qi Ming was stunned, and then smiled bitterly: "That's ...... I also know that my identity is really low, but after all, I still want to find a chance to say it. Since Dr. Su is sympathetic, let's put things back in the car. ”

He was indeed a smart man, and he raised his feet and walked away. Chen Hua admired his neatness and shouted to him again:

"Xiao Qi, Doctor Su knows that you have a good relationship with anyone in the pharmacy, and I want to ask you about the two old gentlemen. ”

Su Huihui immediately turned back and said, "Yes, does Doctor Qi know what's going on?"

She remembered that the last time she came out of Xiao Yun's house, the opposite door was the Wu Mansion, and Old Doctor Fang held his stomach and ran into her at the door, and said a few bad words about the top. Did he know Wu Xin, who lived in seclusion, before?

Qi Ming steadily followed the steps given by Chen Hua, and said Fang Yi and Wu Xin's festival one by one. It turned out that these two people were fellow villagers, both from Yuzhou, Fang Yi was driven out of the Zhao Domain's palace when he was young, and Wu Xin also made a contribution, but they met again in the capital, which can be described as a narrow road. At that time, one was a fledgling physician who worked in the palace, and the other was a good doctor deputy who had some basic connections from Bapin, but now he is half a catty and eight taels. Yizheng and Yibei pushed the princess on Fang Yi for the sake of using the wrong medicine, and it was Wu Xin who personally reported to King Zhao's ears to make him guilty, and decades have passed, Fang Yi still hates itchy.

Carrying a gift to see this black-hearted doctor who slandered him and made him unable to stay in Yuzhou, there is no need to say much about the regret, with his angular temperament, after Wu Xin was stationed in the pharmacy, he had to take a sip on his face every day. Creation makes people, now whether it is the Huimin Pharmacy that he has been in charge of for many years, or the Yan team that has gone south, he still has to be controlled by him! Today, the two were assigned a carriage, Fang Yitie went to the city gate with a blushing face, he couldn't stand the cynicism anymore, and when he got out of the car, he directly scolded in dialect.

After listening to this, Su Huihui sighed for a while, and said, "You are still well-informed." Thanks, we stayed away from that car. However, if Mr. Fang wants to get into your car, it is reasonable and should not be refused. ”

Qi Ming said: "I told him, change it for me and Mr. Wu, he and Lin Qizhi." ”

Su Huihui and Chen Hua couldn't help but have a good impression of him again, if they were ordinary people, they would do everything possible to avoid it.

"Physician Su, Physician Chen, it's snowing heavily, so let's get in the car. Yan Gongzi should be there right away. ”

The three of them stepped on the snow from under the city wall to the door, and the old people were tired of arguing, and they all went back to their carriages, only the coachman sipped soju, squatted beside the horses and took branches to write and draw on the snow.

There was a white expanse in front of him, and Su Hui put away the umbrella and shook the ice beads on the umbrella surface. Nanqi's snow melted on her clothes, the brim of her hood was wet, and it was very uncomfortable to touch her forehead, so she simply took it off and put her hand on her head, and laboriously boarded the car.

As if there was some movement from a few hundred feet away, the brown horse snorted, and the coachman felt the shaking of the ground, and stood up and said:

"It must be Childe who is here. ”

Su warmed half of his upper body was still outside the curtain, and when he looked at it from a distance, he saw two black horses galloping over, countless snow foam splashed under their hooves, and the people on the horse were dressed in big clothes, and their eyes were like sharp blades.

She subconsciously jumped out of the car, and the goose-feather snowflakes fell on her clothes, and the white of the cloak was much darker, and the hair became more and more black as ink.

The leading horse was as fast as a meteor, and stopped under the nearest tree.

"Childe!" Chen Hua gave a light salute to Yan Xugui, who was approaching on horseback, and patted Su Huihui, "What are you doing down again?" ”

Yan Xugui, who was late, rode on his horse, and bowed to Su Huihui when he passed by her: "Doctor Su." ”

The corners of Su Hui's mouth showed a bright smile, he whipped it, the black horse neighed, and the people carrying people ran farther and farther on the snowfield outside the door, and soon there was only a black spot left.

As the twilight faded, the western sky was strangely red, and hundreds of towering buildings in the city stood silently, supporting a corner of the sky.

The man under the tree hurried a few steps forward, and the silver puff with the snow particles cut through the cold air. He raised his hand and took off his hood, and his proud appearance suddenly reflected the world of three thousand glasses.

Through the fluttering snowflakes, he looked straight over, his eyes were gentle and gentle she had never seen before, almost melting the dense snow curtain between heaven and earth.

Su Huihui felt that he would never forget his eyes at this time in his life.

"Master Su, we're about to go!"

She waved her hat at him, said goodbye to her friend who saw her off, and turned and crawled back into the carriage.

The whip slammed heavily on the horse's stock, and the cart was out of Fanjing in an instant.
