Volume 1 The Heart of a Young Man Chapter 66 Poor Man
The maid Qiuxiang, who was sold into the palace by her father when she was five years old, was thrown to Gao Changyu because she had no power and power, and she had never bribed the female officials in the palace. It was also in that year that she met for the first time, the three-year-old lord of the county lord.
At that time, Gao Changyu was still under the protection of the Empress Dowager, living safely, and she also had a little light and lived a rare good life. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, and with the death of the Empress Dowager, the two of them were also driven to the palace in the east of the city. I don't know if it's God's mercy or the grace left by the Empress Dowager, they met the next person who has been protecting them, the palace maid who was only born two years earlier than them, Chunlan.
That year, she was seven years old and Gao Changyu was five years old.
In the days that followed, Sister Chunlan protected them meticulously, whether it was from the beating of the palace people, or the ridicule and abuse of others, Sister Chunlan blocked them one by one, and even this time, Sister Chunlan, who was already scarred, still stood in front of them without hesitation and blocked the whipping of the palace people.
It hurts, it hurts. But Sister Chunlan didn't retreat, she still carried it one by one.
Sister Chunlan has guarded them for twelve years, and now she is dying, she doesn't want to let strange people approach Sister Chunlan in this last time.
"Okay, Qiu Xiang, Li Gongzi is really a doctor." Gao Changyu took Qiu Xiang's hand and said, "Gongzi Li just cured the illness of the princess in the palace. ”
She knew what Qiu Xiang thought, the three of them had been dependent on each other for more than ten years, and she didn't want to lose Chunlan, so she wouldn't find a doctor to do it at random. For Li Xiao, she thought about it for a long time, and even risked her life to find a relationship in the palace.
I don't know why, although the young man in front of her doesn't look big, as if he is a gentleman, but she believes in Li Xiao, and always has a feeling that Li Xiao can cure Chunlan and bring them hope.
"Can you cure Sister Chunlan?" The more certain Gao Changyu was, the more Qiu Xiang didn't believe it.
The county lord of his own family is just a seventeen-year-old girl, it is the time of the bloom, it is easy to be deceived, and the illness of Her Royal Highness the princess in the palace, even those imperial doctors who are highly respected in the hospital are helpless, the young man in front of him looks like no more than twenty, how can there be such a means to cure the princess, I am afraid that those charlatans have deceived His Royal Highness the county lord.
"Just try it." Li Xiao looked at Qiu Xiang and couldn't help laughing.
This girl is not very old, why is she so vigilant, and she looks like this, which is completely different from her little girl. It's also pitiful, in the environment of Jingshi, I can't help but become like this.
"No, the county lord is still young, and he will be deceived by you, I won't believe you." Qiu Xiang blocked in front of Li Xiao and didn't let him take half a step forward.
"Qiu Xiang, you." Gao Changyu looked at Qiu Xiang and didn't know what to do for a while. This Nizi has a tendon, it seems that it is difficult to change her mind, but if she keeps dragging it like this, making Li Xiao impatient, what should Chunlan do.
Qiu Xiang was indeed a tendon, and she stood in front of Li Xiao and didn't let him pass.
Li Xiao looked at Gao Changyu with a smile, and said in his heart that this county lord is really faceless, and it doesn't matter if he is bullied outside, he can't even manage his own maids.
Li Xiao sighed, stretched out his hand and gently stroked the water tank lying quietly on the side. When Qiu Xiang was still wondering what Li Xiao was going to do, she only felt an unbearable throbbing pain in the back of her head, and then she lost consciousness, her eyes were dark, and she softened.
Seeing this scene, Gao Changyu was surprised, why did Li Xiao suddenly make a move, no one noticed it at this moment.
Just like not feeling Gao Changyu's eyes, Li Xiao dragged Qiu Xiang, who fell softly, and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness the County Lord, don't be stunned, take advantage of this Nizi hasn't woken up yet, hurry up and lead the way." ”
"Oh, oh." Gao Changyu answered in a daze, and then hurriedly took the autumn fragrance in Li Xiao's arms and slowly walked to the inner courtyard.
Looking at Gao Changyu, who was struggling to move forward, Li Xiao suddenly felt funny, he was just here to treat his illness, how do he feel that he has been doing it recently, and the other party is still a woman. This kind of dry hands-on is not interesting, but it is more interesting to find an inn and do it on a bed made of "Simmons".
"Ugh." Li Xiao sighed, subconsciously looked at the crotch of his pants, and said in his heart that he was really unlucky, he was reborn in a lifetime, but he was still a chick, this kind of sadness is also a rare existence in the vast crossing army.
"Li Gongzi, please come here." Gao Changyu put Qiu Xiang on the stone bench and walked over with his hands covered.
nodded, and followed Gao Changyu to the inner room.
As soon as you enter the inner room, there is a strong smell of medicine. Covering his nose and looking around, perhaps because only the three daughters lived, the decoration of the inner room was not gorgeous, only a few candles, and nothing special. Also, the palace has been ruined, and such unnecessary decorations can be eliminated and expenses can be saved.
"Your Highness, is that you?" A weak voice came from the sickbed, followed by several coughs.
"Sister Chunlan, it's me." Gao Changyu hurriedly stepped forward, poured a cup of hot tea, and sent it to Chunlan's mouth.
Looking at Chunlan, who was struggling to get up, Li Xiao saw the situation of the person on the sickbed clearly. There is only a thin single coat, and the whole body is full of scars, and then look at it, the miserable white face is full of bruises, without a trace of blood, large and small, which makes people feel pity.
"Who is this?" Chunlan Yuguang saw Li Xiao standing by the door and asked softly.
Gao Changyu put down the teacup in his hand, carefully helped Chunlan, and said, "This is Li Gongzi from Suzhou, come to Sister Chunlan to see your injury." ”
"Your Highness." Chunlan looked at Gao Changyu and smiled weakly.
As a master, he is kind-hearted, always thinking about others and never thinking about himself. In order to maintain the expenses of the house, he got up early and went out late every day, although he had never seen Gao Changyu busy with anything, but in Jingshi, his Royal Highness the county lord, in addition to giving up his dignity, how could he earn silver.
Chunlan often wonders if Gao Changyu would have lived an easier life if she hadn't been with Qiu Xiang. I also thought about leaving, but every time I saw Gao Changyu, I would be reluctant.
"It's okay, it's going to be fine." Gao Changyu comforted.
Gao Changyu knew what the two maids were thinking, but she didn't dare to say it, and she didn't want to say it. She was afraid that if she said it, Qiu Xiang and Chunlan would not leave her. After so many years, Gao Changyu has long been accustomed to the existence of the two of them, and the three of them are ill-fated women.
Isn't it dignity, as long as the three of them can live, don't want it, anyway, your position as the county lord is undignified.
Gao Changyu slowly put Chunlan down, and then looked at Li Xiao and said, "Li Gongzi, I'm in trouble." ”
Nodding, Li Xiao whispered "offended", then walked to the sickbed, sat down slowly, raised Chunlan's little hand full of bruises, and gently put his fingers on.
The pulse was weak, intermittent like a dying person.
Flipping the sleeves up, there are all deranged whiplashes, which are shocking.
Li Xiao looked at Chunlan's scars all over her body, frowned, and the movements in her hands couldn't help but increase.
How much hatred is there, to torture such a woman so much, this level of viciousness, is it really to treat the people in this mansion like animals?
"Ahh Feeling the pain in her arm, Chunlan didn't hold back and screamed.
"I'm sorry." Li Xiao hurriedly let go of his hand and apologized repeatedly.
"It's fine."
When Gao Changyu heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward, his face full of worry: "Gongzi Li, how is the situation?" ”
Li Xiao's face was a little bad, judging from the preliminary diagnosis just now, Chunlan's illness was not easy to handle, the perennial whipping made her body overload early, and all aspects of her body were already the limit, even if there were other external forces, her body would collapse instantly, and there was no way to return to the sky. In other words, Chunlan has already stepped into the ghost gate in half a step, and she is only a thin line away from death.
This kind of body can only rely on rest, and no medicine can cure it. Rao is one of those great tonic medicines, which will only further destroy Chunlan's body.
"Don't use these drugs anymore." Li Xiao glanced at the medicinal herbs in the room, sighed and said. It's also pitiful, Chunlan has no doctor who is willing to treat herself, everything can only rely on oral instructions, ask someone to buy medicine, I don't know how much difference will be made by the middleman during the period, and these medicines are of little use to Chunlan.
"Ahh Gao Changyu looked at Li Xiao in surprise, she didn't understand why Li Xiao said that, don't drink medicine, what should Chunlan do, is it possible to let it go?
Li Xiao picked up the medicinal herbs and smelled them, and instantly a disgusting smell came to his face. These medicinal materials are all defective.
Shaking his head, he stretched out his hand towards Gao Changyu.
Looking at Li Xiao's movements, Gao Changyu looked puzzled, what do you mean, you want silver so soon? But Chunlan hasn't been cured yet. But there seems to be no way, Li Xiao seems to have some ability, and there are only three weak women on his side, but they can't beat him, one is still a patient, and the other hasn't woken up yet, relying only on himself, there is no way.
It seems that the wolf is really lured into the room.
Timidly, Gao Changyu took out a bag of silver from his arms and handed it to Li Xiao. There's no way, anyway, this is also the silver that was stolen from Li Xiao, so it will be regarded as a thing returned to its original owner.
As for Li Xiao, looking at Gao Changyu, who tilted his head and closed his eyes tightly, he looked puzzled.
Silver, it seems that it can't cure injuries, besides, what I want is not silver, but the bottle of ointment that Sun Miao gave him earlier.
However, it seems that Gao Changyu didn't know, just stretched out his hand motionlessly, and didn't look at Li Xiao.
Just like that, one stretched out his hand, the other watched, and the two people in the room stood on each other, not moving.
"Ahem." Chunlan, who was leaning on the bed, couldn't help coughing twice.
With coughing, Gao Changyu touched his hand, and the silver bag was still there. opened his eyes and looked, only to find that Li Xiao was just standing, smiling.
"Why don't you take it?" Gao Changyu asked.
"Take what." Listening to Gao Changyu's words, Li Xiao instantly understood, it turned out that this girl thought that she was asking for a consultation fee. But this was not what I meant: "I don't want silver, I just gave it to you in the carriage." ”
"Ahh Gao Changyu looked at Li Xiao, then at Chunlan who was snickering, took out the porcelain bottle thrown to her by Li Xiao on the carriage with a red face, lowered his head, and put it in Li Xiao's hand.
PS: Cool heart.
