There was light outside the crack in the door.

She raised her hand blankly, and the glimmer of light trickled down her finger and disappeared. It was dead black all around, and a cold feeling came up from the soles of her feet, and she looked down to see her crimson dress dragging on the ground, and the hem of her dress was sprinkled with small golden flowers...... It was a gift from her mother-in-law on her birthday.

She pushed the door open, squeaking, and the cold breath on her face made her shiver. There seemed to be footsteps behind her, and she was terrified, but she didn't dare to turn back, and staggered to the center of the hall.

The candles were faint, and the marigolds carved on the caisson were dim in color, and she recognized this as the Mingxin Palace, the grandmother's dormitory. Moving his gaze downward, a few steps away was a screen embroidered with the half moon of Cangshan Mountain, and something behind the screen emitted bright light.

She remembered that there were lanterns given to her by her little brother on the Yuan Festival, and she could only sleep by lighting them every night. She is afraid of the dark, there must be light by the couch, and he is always so thoughtful.

There was an inexplicable wind blowing in the hall, and she hurriedly picked up the lamp, and while protecting it with her hands, she ran to the warm pavilion, and the words in her throat almost rushed out—there was a person sitting on the couch behind the beaded curtain, such a familiar posture, such a familiar voice, but no matter how she looked, she couldn't see the person's face clearly.

She hesitated as she held the lamp, her arm seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and her heart beat faster. The person on the couch next to her called her name, and no one had called her that for a long time, so she subconsciously threw away the lantern and went to pull the dark corner of her clothes.

In an instant her eyes widened in horror, her face came closer, her features blank, and a sharp and malicious laugh echoed in her ears, where was her closest grandmother!

She screamed at a sharp pain in her left arm, only to see a piece of gilt beaded armor piercing deep into her skin, and blood staining her sleeve. She looked up blankly, and the figures and furnishings dissipated in an instant, and in an instant the entire hall was a terrifying red.

"Physician Su. ”

Su Huihui sat up straight from the bed, his long hair was messily draped behind his head, and he clutched his injured arm and screamed in pain.

The cold starlight spread on the wooden cabinet at the head of the bed, she sat quietly for a moment, took one hand from the quilt, picked up the cup, and poured a few large sips of cold water.

"Physician Su. The knock on the door changed from light to heavy, and it was very clear in the dark night.

Su Huihui groped for his shoes, put on a middle coat and walked to the door, hesitated for a moment, and finally rubbed his temples and spoke weakly:

"I'm sorry...... I'm fine. ”

There was a pause outside the door, and a vague shadow reflected in the porch lamp, standing less than three paces away from her. As soon as you open the door, you will meet his face.

She added, "I'm sorry I didn't bother you just now...... Just having nightmares, it doesn't matter. Thanks a lot. ”

Outside the door, he answered in a low voice, and said nothing.

She felt a little cold underground, and dragged her shoes to the bed to retract into the bed, and when she turned her head to see that the shadow was no longer there.

I'm gone, too.

She tried to move her arm, although it hurt, but she could actually lift half an inch, it seems that it did not hurt much, this is a strong technique......

Su Huihui came to his senses at this time, Yan Xugui?

The starlight was dimly blowing on the water leak, and it was the first moment of ugliness. What was he doing at the inn so late?

She pressed her eyes, and she really couldn't sleep anymore.

The dream took her back to when she was a child, and she couldn't remember what her grandmother looked like, and she couldn't remember what the queen looked like, but she just judged by her senses. Maybe it's because my nerves have been too tense recently, and because I was alone during the Chinese New Year, I couldn't help but feel lonely, so I can remember my childhood home so clearly...... She sighed, not so much that she hated Princess Su Jinlan of Anyang, but that she was afraid of her and the huge force behind her. Ever since I met An Yang, I always had a bad premonition, as if I couldn't calm down in the next years.

Su warmer wiped her eyes and silently warned herself not to be so unproductive, because even if many people were not by her side, she could live a stable life. In the dream, she heard her mother-in-law's long-lost gentle voice, calling her Nuan Nuan one after another, she didn't have to miss it too much, because now someone can call her that, also very gentle, very serious, as if she is the most precious thing in the world.

So there's no reason for her to be so wolfy.

Yan Xugui stopped in the corridor for a while, looking out from the windowsill on the second floor, the pharmacy on the corner of the street was dark and dreary, and there was not a doctor on duty at night as usual. It took too much effort to feast and drink during the day, and most of the people were immersed in sleep at this time, except for a few jackdaws in the distance still crowing low in the trees.

Blowing the night breeze, he passed through three unoccupied rooms and went straight into the last room where the candlelight was shining. The door was hidden, and when it was pushed, it opened, and it seemed that the people inside had been waiting for a long time.

The candlestick was resting on the table, and the old man at the table was dozing off with his eyes closed, his sparse white hair made sloppy by the cold wind invading the crack in the door, it was Wu Xin.

Yan Xugui knocked on the wooden table unceremoniously, "Sir, you can still raise your eyes to appreciate the light." ”

The judge in the front court leaned back in the chair according to his words, with a trace of fine light in his cloudy eyes, and pulled the corners of his mouth and spit out a few words:

"Young Master Yan......"

Yan Xugui's eyes were cold, "The pharmacy is not well entertained, Mr. deigned to rest in the inn late at night, and Yan was really interested." He turned slightly sideways and looked in the direction of the door panel, "This room is so close to that Master Su, and Mr. is really not afraid of being listened to." ”

Wu Xin smiled and said, "Old man, what are you afraid of when you are about to enter the ground......? That's right, it doesn't hurt if the girl hears it, sooner or later she will know. Alas, it's hard for the little boy to come over so late, but the old man felt that he couldn't find time to talk to the son, and the bed in the pharmacy was really bad, so he found another quiet place to come to this inn. ”

"I heard that Mr. had a holiday with the Fang doctor of the Beijing Pharmacy in his early years. ”

Wu Xin snorted, "Is this...... It is also one of the reasons. ”

Yan Xigui pulled a chair and sat opposite him, and said lightly: "Since you know what I'm looking for, you can tell everything you understand now." I don't mean to embarrass you, I hope you don't be as confused as you were more than a decade ago. ”

Wu Xin coughed, "Okay, okay, but I said it in advance, I won't be directly involved, after all, my life was picked up by Emperor Xian's grace." Childe has long intended to take the old man south, that is, he has the heart to ask the old man to help, so can I ask, when did Childe know about this?"

Yan Xugui snorted: "What does it matter to you sooner or later?"

Wu Xin looked at the suppressed sadness in his eyes, although he sighed in his heart, but there was no trace of pity. The affairs of the previous generations really had nothing to do with him, and his purpose was only to enjoy this last old age in peace.

"And said that the Xun Muhua that Gongzi is looking for is a very rare medicine in the world, and the legend is that it was born with Fan Taozhi and is now in the South China Sea. Forty years have passed, and today the old things are revisited, and there are many doubts in them...... The old man hadn't even entered the Tai Hospital at that time, and he had only heard about it, and it was not impossible to say that there was a second Xunmuhua now—according to the information that Gongzi had observed, it had appeared in the pharmacy of Jiyang Mansion, and the traces were still obvious. The three generations of the Yan family have spent a lot of effort to search for the people, and have given financial and material resources to the three southern provinces, all for the day when it will reappear in the sky!"

Yan Xugui looked at the leak and said calmly: "Sir, it's better to get straight to the point, Yan still has something to do when he goes back." ”

Wu Xin choked for a moment, pressed the passionate tone that was about to tell the story, and thought about a very concluding sentence:

"When Rong Shilang got Xun Muhua, he immediately changed hands to Beiliang, and after the Yan family's hard work, all he got was the useless Fan Taozhi, and he secretly never gave up the search. Now is a great opportunity for the son to untie the shackles of the Yan family, according to the old man, even if he can't find it, with that girl here, we can also get a second bottle of antidote. ”

He took out a piece of paper, and swiped a few words on it with his fingers, Yan Xugui opened it and glanced at it, it was densely packed with small letters, and a few words were very eye-catching.

"Qin Yu came to Qi Country later, and the Rong family was also close to Yuxiao Mountain. The old man speculated that at the beginning of spring, Gongzi accompanied the Rong army and escorted grain and herbs into the Turkic steppe, the purpose was to bring back Master Su, right? Even if she didn't agree, Gongzi would use various reasons to let her come to Fanjing. ”

Yan Xugui smiled meaninglessly: "It's a pity, it was actually Qin Yu who asked her to come to the grassland, and her last words are inviolable." ”

Wu Xin flicked the dust off his padded jacket and sighed: "Ah, that's really well-intentioned." It is estimated that the girl has been kept in the dark, and I don't know how to make trouble in the future. ”

The candlelight was very dim, and the shadows of the two of them swayed on the yellowed wall, Yan Xugui stared at Wu Xin and pondered for a few moments, silently faded the big light, and walked to the door with it in his hand.

"Hey, is Yan Gongzi leaving? The old man still has ......?"

Three tuk-tok knocks on the door made him swallow all the unfinished words into his stomach.

Su Huihui listened to the corner of the wall at the door for a long time, and he didn't know what it was like, and his eyes became dry. She stood blankly, her mind in turmoil, and a gust of wind blew over her, and she almost sneezed. If they went in now, would they continue to talk as if no one was around?But wouldn't it be worth it to go back with a full stomach full of doubts? The scheming old man said that it would be okay if she knew.

The night wind was very cold, and she didn't put on a cloak when she came out, and she would definitely catch a cold if she stood down again, and by the time she reacted, the right hand that knocked on the door had already retracted by itself.

…… If you knock on the door, you should just break in and tell them, "Don't try to hide it from me, if you hear it all!"

Su Hui stared at the door panel with a warm eye, brewing all the imposing words she knew, and her heart was beating fast. Later, she has to preemptively strike and speak before they speak, if no one speaks, she can just throw off face and perform a miserable scene like in the playbook, but if she can't do it, she can squeeze out a few tears......

"Squeak-"

She looked stunned, and strode across the threshold with her head held high, not giving the two people in the room a chance:

"My husband had moved to the inn, and I wouldn't have known if Childe hadn't woken me up in the middle of the night. Just now you said that Yan Gongzi came to the grassland with ulterior motives? It seems that my master colluded with you? Yan Gongzi didn't sleep at night and came here to have a long talk with Doctor Wu? You overestimated my ability so much and asked me to dispense the antidote, without considering ......?"

She couldn't say anything about this kind of thing that was completely coherent and incoherent, but at this time she blamed herself for being reckless. We should wait and see what happens...... She almost hid her face and ran out.

However, she couldn't retreat after taking the first step, she pretended not to see the interested Wu Xin and Yan Xugui, who were getting closer and closer, and said sadly:

"If you slander my master like this, aren't you afraid that he will be uneasy in the Heavenly Spirit? Even if he really colludes with the Qi people to push me to Fanjing, it will not be your turn to make irresponsible remarks. ”

"Poof......

Su Huihui grabbed the thing in his hand and threw it at the old disrespectful doctor, suspecting that his ears were red. It's obvious that she's in charge, why is she still so embarrassed!

Under the hood of the black shadow, she sighed, grabbed it and saw that it was a large piece of mink fur.

Her thoughts stopped for a moment, she was at a loss for what to do with her clothes, and she couldn't even speak.

"That's not how the words uneasy and collusion are used......" Yan Xugui sighed and put her back on, "Are you okay?"

Su Huihui wanted to tell him that it was not good at all, it was all their fault.

Wu Xin covered the corners of his mouth to avoid the thing that attacked him, and glanced at it, it was a wooden clip on the bed tent, "Why are you such a big temper, this is how Doctor Qin taught you to talk to older people?" ”

Everyone in the team of doctors knew that the identity of this hospital judge was different, and someone came to send it off when Fanjing was leaving that day, and his actions could almost be regarded as overstepping.

Su Huihui struggled out of the big man, regardless of the chattering old doctor, he just looked at Yan Xugui and asked:

"You have to make it clear today, since this matter has something to do with me, I have the right to know. Besides, I've been in the capital of Qi for almost a year, and now I say that I was calculated by you to enter Fanjing, I can't accept that you are silent about this, please don't think that others are inconsequential river crossers!"

Yan Xugui sighed again, "So you never doubted and never asked him?"

Su Huihui felt as if he had been stabbed, his eyes suddenly turned red, and his voice trembled violently: "What's the matter with him......" Thinking of Sheng Yunyi, his mind suddenly cleared up most of the time, "He didn't know who I was at first, but you know, you even hid it from him, what kind of fame are you Yan doing?"

Her light brown eyes were unusually firm, Yan Xugui was silent for a long time, and said indifferently: "Yes, he didn't know about it before." ”

He designed for her to leave Yuxiao Mountain, and the only people who knew the reason for it were the Rong family and her deceased master, except for Wu Xin. But at this moment, to say that Rong Jianchi arranged for her to be an official in Nanqi, her master did not foresee it at all, and she didn't believe it in her heart. The master would not harm her, at the beginning she thought that he was relieved to let herself find the backer of the Rong family, and it turned out that there were other reasons.

The first fact is that Yuxiao Mountain and the Rong family had a close relationship many years ago, and thinking about the words of the two of them before, it seems that it was a secret transaction for her to leave the medicine house where she had lived for many years and enter the Qi realm, "Xun Muhua was handed over to Beiliang", which should be Tong Guò her master. But it's been 40 years, and she just gave it to Qin Yu as a relative of the deceased to raise, so why did she get involved again? Could it be that her master did something very troublesome, and even if he died, he couldn't solve the problem, and he planned to let her pay it back?

Su Huihui complained a little that he had not been taught to be a doctor with a bright mind.

She was caged in a big hat, and looked at the person in front of her in the candlelight—she had a sunny appearance, but no matter how warm she was, her heart was still as deep as the sea. She is always very stubborn about the first impression left by others, just like Yan Xigui, who can put great pressure on her whenever and wherever she is.

"Even if I want to talk to you now, you don't have the heart to understand it all right now, so you can come to the mansion to find me when you wake up. ”

His tone was detached, and Su warmed his anger and didn't fight: "Yan Xugui, since you can knock on my door in the middle of the night to confirm that I am awake, you can lead me to blow the cold wind outside and listen to the corner of the wall, people like you are really avoided." ”

Wu Xin slapped a few times suddenly, "The fight is also noisy, and the response is also there, our court judges that the adults are decent today." But let's go back, blowing the cold wind and listening to the corner of the wall is detrimental to yin morality......"

Su Hui said to himself: "I have heard that it is useless for merchants to swear to the sky, so I can't force you to guarantee that every word you just said can be fulfilled. Yan Gongzi, I am alone now, and I don't have the idea of relying on anyone, if my master is sorry for the Yan family for what I did in my early years, I will do my best to make up for it, but first, I am not him, and I will not take all the responsibility, and second, I must be clear about all the facts before you ask me, which is not too much. ”

Yan Xugui said after a while: "Doctor Su, this is not for me to decide, sorry. ”

Su Huihui brushed his hair behind his ears, pulled the corners of his lips and sneered: "Yan Xigui, you will only perfunctory me again and again." ”

"If you're not there, you'll take it. ”

The cold wind was blowing, and as soon as she ran out of the door, she had to walk on the porch with her head bowed against the wind, and her voice gradually became quieter. Having said that, she was still afraid of catching a cold, so she wrapped her body tightly.

Wu Xin stretched his waist and said to the door: "Take care, son, the old man is going to rest." ”

Yan Xigui raised his head and smiled at him, his thick eyelashes cast a shadow on the bridge of his nose, which was clearly An Tian's appearance, but Wu Xin shuddered when he saw it.

"Childe doesn't have to go to Governor Xiao's mansion tomorrow?"

"It's okay, just take one with you. She wondered, why should I be uncomfortable?"
