Hua Manlou said: "I think he always thought that I could detoxify this poison, so he couldn't complete the three things I said, so he counteracted with his life and asked me to detoxify Shang Wuchen." ”

Xia Chen always felt that this matter was a bit strange, but listening to Hua Manlou say this, it seemed reasonable. "Did Thaksin say that?"

Hua Manlou nodded: "Well, he said that it was all his fault, and he just asked me to save his brother's life for the sake of knowing each other." But when I rushed to Cuiyun Peak to find Shang Wuchen, the building was empty. ”

"Here's the problem!" Xia Chen said suddenly.

"What's the problem?" Hua Manlou asked strangely.

Xia Chen said: "Brother Fengyue, haven't you ever thought that if you want to detoxify the dustless boy in this way, how can he not tell the dustless boy to wait for you?" ”

Hua Manlou was stunned: "I really didn't think about this, Chen'er, what do you mean?" ”

Xia Chen said: "The dustless boy said that he has not found the person who killed his brother, which means that he doesn't know that he has committed suicide without a trace, right?" If you don't have a trace and obviously don't resent you, aren't you afraid that the dustless boy will one day see you as an enemy? He at least told Sù Wuchen not to pursue his death, or to explain that he was willing to die, right? ”

Hua Manlou narrowed his eyes: "Chen'er, do you mean that Wu Xian did not commit suicide, but someone forced him to take poison and commit suicide?" ”

Xia Chen nodded: "Yes, but for some reason, that person promised him to write to you." ”＊

Hua Manlou lamented: "God! I hadn't thought of this earlier. After that, he raised his arms and shouted: "No trace, don't worry, I will heal your brother." Find the murderer and avenge you. ”

Xia Chen said: "Brother Fengyue, it's still the same sentence, if I refuse." What are you going to do? ”

Hua Manlou looked at her and suddenly smiled: "Chen'er, if you don't want to save him, why do you come with me and let Qiyun deliver the letter?" ”

Xia Chen pursed his lips: "You have become smarter this time." But first you have to promise to do three things for me. ”

Hua Manlou hurriedly said: "Don't say three, I will definitely do it for thirty and three hundred." ”

Xia Chen shrugged his shoulders: "Do you know that your previous actions almost ruined my business?" So the first thing I'm going to do is if anything happens to me in the future. Be sure to tell the truth. ”

Hua Manlou nodded and said, "Chen'er, I'm ...... I'm so sorry. I promise that whatever happens in the future, as long as it involves you. I'll talk to you first. ”

"Hmm. This second piece is that I have a batch of farms in my hands that I am anxious to sell, but cannot sell in my name. ”

Hua Manlou thought for a while: "I'll find a way to deal with this." ”

Xia Chen nodded: "This third thing, I haven't thought about it yet, but I have a request." Don't tap my or give me any drugs. ”

Hua Manlou hesitated for a while this time: "Chen'er." At least you don't have to look at the blood when it's taken, right? ”

Xia Chen smiled slightly: "I'm not too afraid of blood. ”

"Well, I'm all up to you." Hua Manlou pushed open the door and invited her in, then stopped and turned to look at her: "Chen'er, you are not only my friend now, but also my benefactor." ”

Xia Chen shrugged his shoulders: "You also helped me, besides, there is no need to say this between friends, see you over time." ”

Hua Manlou said: "You sit here and rest for a while, and I will instruct someone to prepare a meal." ”

Dinner. Hua Manlou led her to the ear room next to the dispensing room, where several pots of flowers were placed. Two veils hung from the beams, and in the middle of the tent was a bathtub.

Hua Manlou said: "You can walk around as you like, or you can stay here, and I will prepare a medicinal bath for you." ”

Xia Chen sat on the rattan chair next to him and watched him dispense medicine, all kinds of herbs and powders were thrown into the bathtub by him, and she probably remembered that there were as many as thirty kinds.

Put the medicine away, Hua Manlou smiled at him, then turned around and went out, and after a while brought a large pot of hot water, and this water was obviously not ordinary water, it was light brown. Then the two servants brought four buckets of hot water to add to them.

Hua Manlou stirred the water well: "Chen'er, it's okay." Then he said to Saixue: "You are waiting for Xia Gongzi here." ”

Sai Xue's face flushed slightly: "Yes." ”

Xia Chen got up and said, "I didn't expect that my treatment of this medicine is actually good." ”

Hua Manlou looked at her deeply: "Chen'er ......" It's rare that she is still in the mood to joke at this time, and although she is joking, but listening to his ears, it is like a whip in his heart, he closed his eyes: "Soak for three quarters of an hour, no more, no less." ”

Xia Chen nodded: "I know." Then he looked at Sai Xue: "You can go out too, just call me when the time comes." ”

Sai Xue looked at Hua Manlou and nodded, "Xia Gongzi can just call me if he needs to." ”

The water temperature was slightly hot, and the water vapor was filled with a faint medicinal fragrance, Xia Chen leaned his head on the edge of the bathtub, squinting slightly to enjoy the comfortable feeling. There are always many unsatisfactory things in life, so don't think about any troubles when you can be happy.

Just when she was almost asleep, Sai Xue's voice came from outside the door: "Xia Gongzi, it's almost time, I'll bring a bathrobe." ”

Xia Chen said in a daze: "Wait a minute." ”

She saw a hand towel on the hanger on the side, took it to dry her body, and dodged behind the screen: "Saixue, come in." ”

Just after soaking in the medicinal bath, Xia Chen's skin became as delicate and sensitive as a baby, and the silky silk bathrobe was attached to his body, like flowing water and like a pair of gentle hands.

Sai Xue wiped her hair and said, "Young Master Xia, I think that the golden boy and girl will not be more beautiful than you." ”

Xia Chen said: "Just dry your hair, you don't have to pull your bun, I want to rest." ”

Obviously, Hua Manlou had instructed her to prepare a bedroom, the futon was temporarily new at a glance, and the bed was very soft, so Xia Chen fell asleep as soon as he dipped his head on the pillow.

Hua Manlou prepared all kinds of medicinal materials to be used, the sky was already dark, he rubbed his eyebrows, and came to Xia Chen's bedroom.

Sai Xue had been keeping vigil outside the door, and when she saw him coming, she bowed down and whispered, "Childe, haven't you slept yet?" ”

Hua Manlou asked softly, "Did Chen'er sleep well?" ”

Sai Xue smiled slightly: "I slept very sweetly." ”

"It's almost dawn, you go and prepare medicinal food, this is the recipe."

After Sai Xue took the prescription and retreated, Hua Manlou gently pushed open the door and came to the bedside, looking at Xia Chen's calm and sweet sleeping face. He felt distressed and guilty, and for some reason, he always ignored that she was still a child. And it's a girl, he's always been pretentious, but he always wants her to be tolerant.

Although he also took on the family feud and family business at a young age, in the end, he had no worries about food and clothing, and there were many people to serve him, just heard Qiyun talk about Xia Chen's life experience, he found that Xia Chen also had many reasons to resent and lament. But she ...... She is like a small wildflower that blooms brightly whenever there is sunlight.

Xia Chen turned over and held the quilt in his arms. With a satisfied face, he rubbed his cheek on the silk quilt. Whether in modern times or here, a comfortable bed and a pair of soft quilts make her feel warm and beautiful.

There was a burst of birdsong outside, and Xia Chen listened with a smile. Suddenly, I felt a strange aura around me. When she opened her eyes, she saw Hua Manlou standing beside the bed, looking at her with an indescribable look of tenderness or concern.

"Brother Fengyue, why are you here?" Although she was a little surprised, she didn't panic at all.

Hua Manlou said: "I wanted to ask you to go out for a walk, but I didn't wake you up when I saw that you were sleeping soundly." ”

Xia Chen glanced at the window: "It's still early, you wait for me outside, I'll change my clothes and come." ”

The sun has not yet risen. The morning glow has dyed half of the sky red, and the pine and cypress on the side of the wooden pavilion are accompanied by famous flowers. The tender grass next to the stone steps is flowing with water. Breathing in the moist and fragrant air, flicking the dew on the branches and leaves, Xia Chen said happily: "Brother Fengyue, your mountain villa is comparable to a paradise. ”

Hua Manlou said: "If you like it, just move in." ”

Xia Chen smiled: "It's good to come to live occasionally, but it's not good to stay permanently, it's inconvenient in the end." ”

"Is it convenient to live in Yue Feiyun?" Hua Manlou's tone was a little savory.

Xia Chen looked at him: "Is it Qiyun who told you?" I won't stay with Major General Yue for long, and I'll move back as soon as the house is repaired. ”

Hua Manlou said: "Chen'er, you are my friend and brother, and I will definitely tell me if I have any difficulties in the future." ”

Xia Chen nodded: "Okay." ”

At this time, Qiyun's voice came from a distance: "Childe, there is a merchant boy looking for you." ”

Xia Chen sighed: "Let's go." "Come to think of it, Hua Manlou and Shang Wuchen have made an appointment to detoxify and heal him today.

Shang Wuchen was stunned when he saw Xia Chen, but he didn't say anything, only looked at Hua Manlou with doubts.

Hua Manlou said: "The method is feasible. And Chen'er already knows, and she has agreed. ”

Shang Wuchen breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Xia Chen in disbelief: "You...... Why? ”

Xia Chen said helplessly: "What, why?" I'm friends with Fengyue Gongzi, and you've helped me, so I should help with this, not to mention that it's always a good thing to save someone's life, do you have to have a reason? ”

Shang Wuchen said: "But this matter is very dangerous, even if it doesn't hurt your life, it will hurt your body." ”

Xia Chen smiled slightly: "It's okay, the body can be slowly raised, not to mention that with Brother Fengyue here, I believe it won't take long to recover." ”

Hua Manlou said: "The medicinal diet should have been prepared, and we will start after a short rest after eating." ”

There will be no problem with taking blood for the first time, and any healthy person will be fine with a small bowl of blood.

Shang Wuchen drank the blood, Hua Manlou began to help him breathe, Xia Chen took a bowl of tonic soup and sat on the recliner to rest.

After about a pillar of incense, Hua Manlou said: "How does the merchant feel?" ”

Shang Wuchen exhaled: "Refreshed, but the injury is a little itchy." ”

Hua Manlou said: "This is a good phenomenon, the left half of your face should be more numb before." Take off your mask, I'll apply it to you. ”

Shang Wuchen didn't shy away this time, took off the mask, Xia Chen half-opened his eyes and looked, and found that the purple-black thin lines on his face had turned purple-red, and although she had seen his face, she still felt trembling in her heart when she saw him again.

Hua Manlou carefully scraped off the carrion from the wound, took out a box of plasters and applied it to the wound. Shang Wuchen sat quietly, cold sweat was oozing from his forehead, but his expression was always calm, and he didn't say a word. A person who has been tormented by pain for many years, if he does not collapse, his endurance is stronger than that of ordinary people, not to mention that he hates illness and drinks bitter medicine, and he is finally expected to be cured, and the pain of his skin is insignificant.

Hua Man upstairs good medicine: "Shang Gongzi, no matter how uncomfortable it is, don't touch the injury with your hands." ”

Shang Wuchen nodded, and then remembered something: "Fengyue Gongzi, didn't you say that Chen'er's blood should be reconciled with medicine?" But you just took it and let me take it, this ......"

Hua Manlou said: "I prepared a medicinal bath for Chen'er last night, and let her take the medicinal diet this morning, so there is no need to use medicine to regulate blood." ”

Shang Wuchen said suddenly: "I also know a little about medical science in the lower ranks, but I am really embarrassed compared to Fengyue Gongzi." ”

Xia Chen said in his heart, adjust the yarn! You obviously picked up ready-made, and I was originally a daughter.

Hua Man smiled: "Chen'er, how do you feel?" I'll ...... again in an hour and a half."

Xia Chen said: "If I can't stand it now, where are you going to get the next eight bowls of blood?" ”

Shang Wuchen arched his hand: "Thank you for your great kindness, ...... in the future"

Xia Chen raised his hand: "Stop!" I don't like empty words, and if you want to repay me, tell me where the man who provided you with the blood of the phoenix is. ”

Shang Wuchen hesitated for a moment and asked, "Why do you want to know him?" ”

Xia Chen rolled his eyelids: "If I sue you, I'm just curious about your trust?" ”

Hua Manlou said: "Master Shang, if you haven't promised anything to that person, you might as well sue Chen'er, I believe that Chen'er will never harm his heart, I can avoid it." With that, he turned and left the house.

Listening to Hua Manlou close the door and walk away, Xia Chen said: "If my guess is right, this person is King Ge, right?" ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Shang Wuchen's eyes: "How do you know?" ”

Xia Chen said: "Because I still know that you are the orphan of the royal family of the Great Xia Kingdom, and you once said that you can't let go of the hatred of the country and the family, but you regard King Ge as a friend, the reason is that he has the grace to live for you." ”

Shang Wuchen's eyes narrowed slightly: "How do you know so much?" ”

Xia Chen smiled: "There is no impermeable wall in this world, many things can be deduced as long as you grasp a point, you wear a mask not only to cover up the poison, but also the tattoo in the corner of the eye, am I right?" ”

A trace of murderous intent suddenly flashed in Shang Wuchen's eyes: "You're not afraid that I will kill you?" ”

Xia Chen pouted: "Is this an attitude towards the life-saving benefactor?" Saying that, she stood up and walked up to him: "I suspect that you people don't know what revenge is, how to take revenge, but you just feel that this is very handsome, and living like this is different." "She also has revenge to avenge, but she doesn't put on a bitter and vengeful appearance all day long.

Shang Wuchen glared at her: "Don't think that you can talk nonsense if you are smart and save me again." ”

Xia Chen smiled faintly: "If you want to win, you must first be able to afford to lose, since ancient times, you hated Xuanguo and destroyed Daxia, but as far as I know, when Daxia was at its peak, it also destroyed other countries, and Xuanguo was also forced to become a vassal at that time and became a tool for your Daxia State to invade other countries, you still have the ambition to compete in the Central Plains, but the last king, I don't know if he is your father or uncle but he is a mediocre and incompetent person, besides, Daxia has never had a perfect legal system, and the princes and nobles have supreme privileges, their lives are becoming more and more extravagant, and they are constantly fighting with each other, In the end, it led to civil strife and division, and then was defeated by the Xuan Kingdom one by one. At this point she paused: "Am I right?" ”

Shang Wuchen's eyes were full of surprise, what had taken him a long time to figure out, a child could explain clearly in a few words. It's just that out of his special position, he can't say that this is right, but he can't refute it, so he simply purses his lips and doesn't say a word. (To be continued......) R1292
