Chapter 102: Seeking medical treatment in the middle of the night
On summer nights, the Milky Way sparkles like flowing sand across the dark sky, the curtain is dotted with glittering stars, and fireflies insects fly over the treetops and over the eaves...... Leaves a dreamy faint fluorescence on the polished surface of the water......
The delicate flowers and plants swayed gently in the warm night breeze, the earth was sleeping, all the qi Δ was so quiet, although there were noisy insects going out to feed, the night was still so quiet and serene, the stream was not noisy, but more like a mother's soft humming lullaby......
As in the past, after Li Yi made a round of inspections, he was about to take a nap against the city wall when he heard the sound of eager horses' hooves on the official road outside the city coming from far and near......
"Hurry up!" Li Yi kicked heavily on his companion at his feet, his face full of solemnity.
"Hurry up!" Wake up the officers and soldiers who were sleeping soundly one by one, Li Yi snorted coldly: "A horse is coming!" β
"What?" Everyone stood up with a grunt, and the remaining sleepiness was swept away, looking at the vast night, listening to the noisy sound of horses' hooves, and cheering up one by one, and being on alert!
"Who?" Li Yi clenched the sword in his hand, looked at the dozen or so carriages under the soldiers and asked coldly.
"Official, we are from Yueyang City, and we are going to Dongfang's house." A person jumped down from the carriage led by him and begged loudly on the city wall: "My young master is in poor health, come to Dongfang Mansion for help, please ask the official to be accommodating." β
"......" The officers and soldiers on the city wall suddenly burst into laughter after looking at each other for a short time. Hahaha-"
"The Dongfang family has been a general for generations, but I have never heard of when a doctor came out." Li Yi glared. Sharp eyes shine in the night.
"Official, we have searched for famous doctors, but no one can cure this disease. Or the head of the Liu family asked us to come to the eldest lady of the Dongfang family for healing......" I couldn't wait to kneel down and kowtow to intercede, "How ......can I ask the official to be accommodating?"
"Please save my lord's lifeβ" A chubby woman got out of the carriage and stumbled to the city gate, crying and kneeling......
One after another, the men and women in more than a dozen carriages, masters and servants, left the carriage one by one and ran to the city gate to cry and grab the ground!
"Soldier. Please, save my son's life! β
"Please let us go, my father-in-law may really die if it is too late......," the woman grieved. Howling loudly: "Please, military master, let us go......"
ββ¦β¦β
"Don't cry!" Li Yi shouted loudly, blocking the howling and crying of the city, that's it. There were still staccato sobs......
"Boss. What to do? Glancing at the situation under the city, the money around Li Yi was entangled.
"When did Dongfang Yuyao study medicine?" A dark color of doubt appeared on his resolute face, but if it was the idea of the head of the Liu family......
"What tokens do you have?" Li Yi shouted under the city wall.
"I've got it here!" A slightly chubby middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper raised his hand, "I have a letter from the Liu family's major here." β
Soon, the letter reached Li Yi's hand, looking at the seal on it, "Wang Feng!" β
"In!" A strong man behind him stepped forward. With a sly smile on his face: "Boss, what do you command?" β
"Send it to the Oriental Family." Li Yi handed the letter to Wang Feng and instructed: "If the housekeeper can call the shots, don't disturb the general and the old general." β
"Yes, sir." took the letter and stuffed it into his arms, Wang Feng showed a mouthful of white teeth: "I'm doing something, aren't you still at ease!" β
"Go now, go back quickly."
"Yes!"
"The money starts."
"Yes."
"The people under the city have been handed over to you, be appeased, don't cry." Li Yi looked at the men and women who were hugging and crying below, and he was very impatient.
"......" Qian Qi scratched his head in embarrassment, his eyes slipped around Li Yi's face, the little expectation on his face quickly disappeared, he sighed heavily, and turned to perform the task in frustration.
Darkness and sleep shrouded the Oriental Mansion, and everything was silent......
Xiao Chong was called out of the bed by the concierge of the vigil.
"What's the matter?" The old man's powerful voice sounded.
"Steward, Wang Feng sent a letter from the Jiling Liu family." The visitor whispered as he began to light the candles in the room.
"Bring it." He sat up and began to read the letter by candlelight. Because he had not yet been combed, his gray hair was a little messy, but it did not diminish the old man's vigor in the slightest.
The snow-white beard swept the yellowish pieces of paper under the candlelight, and the old cheeks moved slightly, and if you didn't look carefully, you would think that the old man was touched by something, and sorrow came from it. But in fact, it was Xiao Chong who couldn't cry or laugh after seeing the words on the letterhead, and there was a low voice in his slightly hoarse voice, Xiao Chong raised his head with a wry smile and ordered the servant: "Let Li Yi let him go, go to the inn to find a home, let those people stay, it's late at night, don't disturb others." As he spoke, he handed the servant an object that looked like a jade plaque with him.
"Yes." The person who came respectfully took the jade plaque and quickly disappeared in front of Xiao Chong's eyes.
"This style ......" Xiao Chong's thin face had a wry smile, but it looked a little kind, he reached out and stroked his long beard, smiled and whispered: "It's really like ...... Second Young Master" The old face was reflected in the faint candlelight, warm and peaceful......
Reflecting on the content of the letter, Xiao Chong shook his head slightly, unable to tell whether he was happy or distressed, and after a while, he raised his head and sighed: "I want to come to this mansion to be really lively......
Li Yi nostalgically scrubbed the jade plate in his hand, as if he saw the inseparable past through the lines on it, his star-like eyes sparkled in the dark night, and he didn't give the order to close until the last person entered the city gate!
"Say hello to the old general on my behalf." When he staggered by, Li Yi's low voice reached the ears of the servants of the Dongfang family.
The servant, who almost blended in with the night, nodded imperceptibly, and without pausing for the second moment, led a row of carriages to the inn that had been arranged......
Li Yi watched the group leave, his eyes fixed on the darkness where his back disappeared for a long time......
After a while, when he came back to his senses, Li Yicai frowned and said, "Did Dongfang Yuyao really go to study medicine?" He couldn't imagine that the proud lady would do such a thing.
"How is that possible!" Wang Feng sneered, waved his hand and said disdainfully: "What else will that eldest lady do besides showing off everywhere!" Looking at Li Yi's gradually sinking face. Wang Feng's voice gradually lowered: "I guess those people should be the daughter of the second master......"
"Second master?" The condensation on his face was immediately replaced by incredulity, and Li Yi couldn't help but raise his voice: "Second master, when did you have a daughter?" β
"Hey, hey, hey." Qian Qi blushed, leaned in front of Li Yi, and smiled: "Boss, you don't know this, the second master has a daughter for more than two months......"
"......" Li Yi raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "Why don't I know?" β
"Hey, hey, chief, didn't you just come back from the Qingdi Mountain Range. Of course it's impossible to know......" Qian Qi sneered.
But it doesn't make sense, although such a thing is not a big deal, but it is obviously not a small matter. Why didn't I hear any wind......
Seeing Li Yi's doubts, Wang Feng said sarcastically: "It's not the eldest lady yet, I heard that I am going to have a sister, and I am afraid that my eldest lady's identity will not be guaranteed." And not only rumors are spread everywhere. No one else is allowed to mention it. β
Li Yi bowed his head, this is indeed Dongfang Yuyao's consistent style of acting.
"I heard from the people of the Dongfang family, the daughter of the second master is beautiful, she doesn't look like a human being......" Qian Qi smiled with a yearning face...... It was as if the face of that beautiful woman was now in front of his eyes!
"Put away your disgusting face!" Li Yi glanced at Qian Qi coldly, gritted his teeth and scolded: "If it is really the daughter of the second master, you are looking for death in this way!" β
"Hey, hey......" Qian Qihan touched the back of his head with a smile, and retorted in his mouth: "The daughter of the second master must be as narrow and chic as the second master." How can you care about these subsections......"
"Are you sure that the second master is narrow and chic?" Wang Feng thought of the days when they were trained together, and couldn't help but mock Qian Qi: "If this eldest lady really follows the second master's temperament." That's the Demon King of the World......"
Qianqi's smile froze on his face!
"......" Li Yi thought of a female version of Dongfang Qingtian's scalp and began to feel numb!
"Why haven't you heard from her for so many years?" If it is the eldest lady of the Oriental family, it is also a very honorable status, and it should not be so unheard.
"The Oriental family said that her mother was a hermit, and she only learned about her father after her mother died, so she had to recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors. It has been more than two months since the news came out from the Dongfang family, but I haven't seen the legendary eldest lady appear, and there is not even a single news of the star, so naturally there are fewer people who care about this matter......"
"......" Li Yi's ink eyes lightly crossed a subtle arc, thinking of the jade plate delivered to his hand tonight, he hesitated even more, if these people are indeed looking for the eldest lady of the Dongfang family who has not yet appeared, then this person is afraid that this person is not a simple character......
"What disease did those people have?" Li Yi turned his head and asked Qian Qi.
Qian Qi touched the back of his head in embarrassment, his face full of confusion: "I have never seen such a disease, those people are very strange, they are all shrunk into a ball, like a ball......"
Wang Feng and Li Yi's eyes widened, looking at each other, how could they have such a strange illness.
Seeing the eyes of the two, Qian Qi said embarrassedly: "Boss, it's useless for you to look at me, I don't know what's going on, and I heard that they all got sick that night, and it's normal to eat, drink, and Lazar, but the body is like this now, and you can't break it when you curl up together......"
The two were even more puzzled, and Qian Qi continued: "It is said that on the day they got sick, they all passed by the carriage of the head of the Liu family, and the key is that a woman shouted 'get out' loudly......"
"Get out?" Wang Feng's eyes widened in disbelief, his lips trembled, and he couldn't believe it: "Could it be that because they were scolded by the people in the carriage of the head of the Liu family, and they became like this again, they went to the head of the Liu family to discuss the explanation, and then the head of the Liu family sent them to Dongfang Mansion?" β
Qian Qi nodded with a bitter face, "That's exactly what they said. β
ββ¦β¦β
"......" Li Yi and Wang Feng were speechless, not thinking that they could encounter such a strange thing.
After a while, Li Yi gloated and smiled, and said without caring about himself: "If that woman is the daughter of the second master, it will make sense in one qiΔ ......"
Qian Qi was stunned for a moment, only to find that such an explanation was indeed flawless.
"Do you still think that the second master's daughter is as narrow and chic as the second master?" Wang Feng suddenly stretched his head in front of Qian Qi and said gloomily.
Qian Qi's expression couldn't hold back any longer, and he cried with a sad face, if such a woman was really the daughter of the second master...... Thinking about it, my back shivers......
Wang Feng is not much better, but he is hard-hearted, whether he is the daughter of the second master or not, he has to hide away!
"Do you know what the second master's daughter looks like? I'm afraid you won't be able to hide! Qian Qi sneered at Wang Feng and at the same time he was also in a burst of flesh pain, he didn't forget the care of him in the sunny sky back then, the reason why he praised him in his mouth was narrow and chic, just to look at his boss's face.
Throwing money to give you an idiot look, Wang Feng said casually: "The daughter of the second master is naturally very similar to the second master......
"......" Qian Qi smirked and muttered: "If you look like the second master, you are indeed better looking than Dongfang Yuyao......"
Li Yi suddenly smiled lightly in the wind: "If it's not good-looking, why should Dongfang Yuyao be jealous, and don't you think that if that person is really the daughter of the second master, our Shouyang City will be lively in the future?" β
"Hehe......" twitched the corners of his mouth, and Wang Feng let out a string of sour laughter: "Boss, are you thinking too optimistic?" β
"I'd better stay away......" It was obviously a slightly warm summer breeze, and Qian Qi still shivered.
"......" Li Yi was speechless, looked up at the fleeting light that crossed the night sky, and sighed softly: "In terms of time, at most twenty days, the second master's daughter should arrive." Li Yi believed in his own judgment, the woman in the carriage of the head of the Liu family should be the daughter of the second master of the Dongfang family.
At the moment, Wang Fengqian and the two felt that the night breeze was cooler...... (To be continued......)
