Chapter 36: Tangled

With Zhang Runcheng being imprisoned and sentenced to death, the burden in everyone's hearts also fell, and Li Miaoqiu also returned to his original teaching workshop to continue to play the piano and music for a living. Due to the vacancy of the magistrate of Anxian County, Suzhou, Li Chengze remembered the old feelings, communicated with the secretary of the ministry, and transferred Cheng Helin of Qianzhou County to Suzhou.

Guo Yifeng was originally a prince, and he was in the capital, so many things were more convenient to deal with, and there were many famous doctors in the capital, if Bai Sujin had any symptoms, he could also be treated in time, so he persuaded Bai Sujin to stay in the capital, but Bai Sujin kept shirking the matter.

On this day, Guo Yifeng found Li Miaoqiu privately and said straight to the point: "Miss Li, now that bastard surnamed Zhang has been punished by the law, you can rest assured, I am looking for you alone today, I have something important to discuss with you." ”

Li Miaoqiu was puzzled, her relationship with Guo Yifeng was only general, not very deep, and she was not sure what Guo Yifeng wanted to do with herself, so she had to say: "Yifeng, you have something, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Guo Yifeng said with a straight face: "Miss Li, you also know that Madame, she is now sick and needs to recuperate with peace of mind, I thought that there are many famous doctors in the capital after all, and it is more convenient to recuperate, so I persuaded her to stay in the capital, but she refused to stay in Beijing." I think about it, maybe she is due to the inconvenience of money, and only you can solve this matter. ”

Li Miaoqiu frowned slightly, had a little speculation in her heart, and asked: "You mean, let me give my sister some money so that she can make a living in the capital?" Actually, I also told my sister about it, but my sister refused to accept it. ”

Guo Yifeng sighed, and said: "She has always been stubborn and strong, so naturally she is unwilling to accept it, and she also thinks that you are a helpless and weak girl, although you have the silver money surnamed Zhang, the future will be long, and there are many places to spend money, so naturally you will not accept your silver money." Therefore, do not give her money, but lend her money. ”

Li Miaoqiu looked a little puzzled, and said slowly: "It's no problem to lend the money to my sister." It's just that I'm afraid that this will increase my sister's psychological burden, my sister has a strong temperament, if she accepts this money and makes a living from it, I'm afraid that she will try her best to return it as soon as possible, and when the time comes, it will be unfavorable for my sister's condition. ”

Guo Yifeng nodded, his eyes flowed, but he said firmly: "Don't be afraid, with me helping her, she won't work too hard." As he spoke, he took out a hundred taels of silver tickets from his sleeve, handed them to Li Miaoqiu, and continued, "I know that you really want to help her, but in this way, your life is really difficult, so I will give you the silver ticket, borrow your hand, and transfer it to her." ”

Li Miaoqiu looked at the one hundred taels of silver tickets, and wondered even more, where did a young man get a hundred taels of silver tickets, and couldn't help blurting out: "Where did you get this silver ticket, didn't you do something?" Well, you wouldn't have done something against the law to get this hundred taels of silver. I know you are good at martial arts, but if you steal money and goods, you are caught by the government, and you will be held accountable. ”

When Guo Yifeng heard this, he saw Li Miaoqiu's anxious face again, and felt angry and funny, so he simply said bluntly: "Let me tell you the truth, my real identity is Lord Ling, but I just traveled around under the pseudonym Guo Yifeng." Since I am a prince, let alone a hundred taels of silver tickets, I can take out a thousand taels of gold. ”

Li Miaoqiu was a little shocked when she heard this, and asked as if she didn't believe it: "Don't bluff me, are you really the prince?" ”

Guo Yifeng shook his head, untied a token from his waist, and said lightly: "Do you recognize this?" ”

Li Miaoqiu fixed his eyes and saw that the token was bright and yellow, and the word "Ling" was engraved on it. Li Miaoqiu was originally a woman in the teaching workshop, and there were naturally many dignitaries and dignitaries in contact, and she also knew about the accessories of these princes and grandchildren. At that moment, she was taken aback for a moment, then relieved herself, and hurriedly kowtowed: "The people's daughter pays homage to the prince." ”

Guo Yifeng hurriedly helped her up, and said with a gentle expression: "You don't need to give me this big gift, I will tell you my identity, just so that you no longer have any doubts, now, you can lend Su Jinyin money with peace of mind." ”

Li Miaoqiu hurriedly answered yes, and asked again: "The people dare to fight, may I ask the prince, why didn't the prince directly tell his identity to his sister, in this way, wouldn't it save a lot of trouble, and take my sister directly into the palace to recuperate, wouldn't it be better than being outside?" ”

Guo Yifeng had a trace of helplessness in his eyes, shook his head, sighed again, and said: "I really want to do this, but with Su Jin's personality, after learning that I am the prince, it is even more impossible to accept that I cut her blood every day to make medicine." Besides, she is sick, and if she suddenly learns my true identity, I am afraid that she will be more excited and worried, which will not be conducive to her recovery, and I think that I will tell her when she is well, so that it will be safe. ”

Li Miaoqiu sighed and said with emotion: "The prince is really affectionate to his sister, the prince is thoughtful, and the people must help the prince to persuade her sister to stay in the capital." ”

Jingmen Inn.

Li Miaoqiu smiled and said: "Seeing my sister's complexion is getting better day by day, I am also happy for my sister from the bottom of my heart. ”

Bai Sujin said gently: "I have already planned, wait for two days, we will leave for Suzhou, it just so happens that the new magistrate is He Lin, and I am also old, I think, after I go back, if I encounter anything, he will also help." I got the news yesterday that he had arrived, and the first thing he did was to renovate the matchmaker shop and restore it to its original state. This gives me a lot of peace of mind. ”

Li Miaoqiu said with a smile: "It seems that Lord He and my sister have a lot of friendship, I don't know what kind of favor I have received from my sister, but I value my sister so much, and I also helped my sister renovate the matchmaker's shop?" ”

Bai Sujin waved his hand and said disapprerovitically: "Where is there any favor, it's just that your former brother-in-law's friend, who is upright and calls me sister-in-law." ”

Li Miaoqiu quipped: "Haven't you heard a common saying in my sister? It's delicious but dumplings, it's not as good as sister-in-law, He Lin can't help but be too careful about his sister, I'm afraid it's not my sister who wants to go back, it's that Lord He is looking forward to my sister's return. ”

Bai Sujin frowned, punched Li Miaoqiu, and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, what's the matter?" ”

Li Miaoqiu realized that this was really inappropriate, and hurriedly said: "Is it my sister who lost her words, let's get down to business, this is a hundred taels of silver tickets, I have the right to lend it to my sister, and ask my sister to make a living in the capital, so I can also be relieved." ”

Bai Sujin pushed back the one hundred taels of silver tickets, looked uncertain, and said with a bit of blame in his tone: "You still have a long way to go, why do you want to give me the silver ticket, it's better to keep it for yourself." Beijing, I won't stay here, I must go back to Suzhou. ”

Li Miaoqiu continued to persuade: "Sister, why do you have to go back to Suzhou, you are sick now, how can you withstand the fatigue of running around, it is better to stay in the capital with peace of mind, besides, there are many famous doctors in the capital, and my sister's illness can also be treated in time." If my sister is worried about the money, and the one hundred taels of silver tickets are not enough, then I will give my sister another one hundred taels, just begging my sister to stay in the capital and be my companion. ”

Bai Sujin looked at Li Miaoqiu's eagerly expectant expression, sighed, and said: "Actually, the reason why I went back to Suzhou was not because of the money, but on that day, when your brother-in-law came to see me, he gave me a hundred taels of silver tickets, so that I could live with peace of mind." The reason why I have to go back is because I don't want to cause trouble in this capital, and only by leaving the capital can I completely see your brother-in-law's negative man again. ”
