Chapter 60: Unveiled
Because there was something in their hearts, the two of them had a hurried meal, and then came to the city gate again.
Because the city gate is a place where everyone must pass, there are still many people around it.
Mu Xiwan and the two squeezed to the front, and after carefully looking at the words on it again, Mu Xiwan tore it off mercilessly.
There was an instant of inhalation from the crowd.
"Young man, do you know what this unveiling means? I see that you are young, and it is still too late to put you back while the officers and soldiers have not yet arrived. ”
"It's good to be young and have a little confidence, but you can't go in and cheat people for those rewards."
The people who exported were all elderly people, and when they saw the delicate spirit of their later life, they reminded them out of kindness.
Mu Xiwan smiled, but she didn't get angry at all because of distrust: "Old man, I know that you are out of kindness, if I can't cure this disease, I will automatically quit." ”
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Get out of the way! ”
At this time, some discordant voices sounded outside the crowd, and then several soldiers in uniform came over, looked at Mu Xiwan and the two, and said, "You are the ones who unveiled the list?" ”
Mu Xiwan nodded.
"Okay, then come with me."
Passing through the crowd of people, the two followed the officers and soldiers all the way to the city lord's mansion.
After entering the hospital, someone else came to lead the two to continue walking, and the officers and soldiers did not seem to have the authority to enter the inner house.
It took two groups of people all the way to finally get to the reception room. After settling the two of them in the hall, someone said to report it.
The first to arrive was not the lord of the city, but a woman dressed in flowers.
The fragrance on the woman's body was fragrant, and when she came up, she looked at the two of them first, obviously because Mu Xiwan was too young to take people seriously.
"People nowadays, those who have hands and feet don't do anything, and they want to come out and deceive all day long."
Turning his gaze on this person, Mu Xiwan subconsciously put his index finger under his nose, and his body took a few steps back, while saying, "Mei'er, help me see what smell is so rushing." ”
Mei'er smiled, but she was very cooperative with her: "Childe, my subordinates don't know who is doing here, please punish Childe." ”
As soon as the two sang and harmonized, the flowery woman was not angry, and simply sat down.
"It's a pair of sharp teeth, I want to see how you can get out of this house in a while if you don't show some skills."
As soon as these words fell, I heard a footstep hurriedly walking in, the person who came was about fifty years old, wearing a dark brown robe, and there were many people behind him, there was no doubt that it should be the city lord himself.
Mu Xiwan stood up and bowed respectfully.
She grew up in the General's Mansion since she was a child, so she naturally has no choice in terms of etiquette.
"You're the one who unveiled the list of famous doctors today?"
The city lord was surprised in his eyes, and he made a gesture to take her hand, but Mu Xiwan hurriedly waved his hand and said: "The city lord praised it, I just learned some medical skills since I was a child, and I thought I would try my luck, if I could cure my wife's illness, it would be my honor." ”
"Hehe, human life is a matter of heaven, how can you let you mess around here?"
The city lord hadn't said anything yet, but the woman had come first.
"Butterfly, stand down!"
When the city lord heard this, he suddenly lowered his face and shouted angrily.
The woman was a little more well-behaved.
He was led by the city lord to his wife's room, the curtain hung down gently, and Mu Xiwan could vaguely see a woman lying on the bed.
"Doctor, Madame has always been in good health, but somehow she suddenly fell ill, if you can see it, this king must be rewarded."
Mu Xiwan gestured, signaling that the reward would not be mentioned first.
"I'll see how Madame is doing."
The maid on one side lifted the curtain a little, and the men in the house retreated to the door at this time, and Mu Xiwan began to check the condition of the city lord's wife.
The complexion is ruddy, and there is no blackening of the Yin Tang and black lips, and it does not look like poisoning.
Could it be that the rumors from the outside world are false?
Mu Xiwan continued to observe, and found that the city lord's wife seemed to be asleep, tilting her head slightly to the side, and found that there was an inadvertent thin line behind her ear.
The thin line is very subtle and requires extremely close observation to spot.
At the same time, he noticed that when she reached out to touch the city lord's wife, someone behind her seemed to move, but someone stopped her. But he only noticed it, and Mu Xiwan didn't think deeply.
After all, he is a man at this time, and the city lord's wife is noble, it is a great luck to see each other, who would have thought that there would be a chance to get involved?
Quietly turning her head back and observing her fingers.
Seeing that there was such an inadvertent thin line on the tips of the ten fingers, Mu Xiwan remembered that in the "Poison Book", he had seen such a poison by chance.
After getting up, Mu Xiwan gave the subordinate a look, and the subordinate put down the curtain again.
When the city lord saw her get up, he hurriedly asked, "Doctor, can you see what's going on with Madame?" ”
Nodding slightly, Mu Xiwan said, "I can cure Madame's illness, but I need to be given some time to prepare." ”
"Good, good." The city lord said three times in a row, and then asked, "Dare to ask where the two sons live tonight?" ”
Referring to the residence, Mu Xiwan subconsciously touched his nose: "It's not a secret, the two of us went out to travel, and we happened to pass through Los Angeles and saw the list of the city lords, so we lived in a restaurant tonight." ”
"The visitor is a guest, how can he live in a restaurant?"
The city lord gave his subordinates a look and said, "If you don't dislike it, you two might as well live in the city lord's mansion these days, if there is anything you can help, just mention it." ”
Glancing at Mei'er, Mu Xiwan nodded: "It's good to live here, and it's more convenient to treat Mrs. ”
The courtyard prepared by the city lord for the two of them is in the west courtyard, and the east courtyard is inhabited by the city lord's concubines and some children, which is indeed inconvenient for outsiders to communicate.
Fortunately, Mu Xiwan didn't pay much attention to these, but settled down.
What surprised Mu Xiwan in her heart was that the terrain of this west courtyard was quiet, and very few people came back, but it created a good rest environment for the two.
The small courtyard opposite the two happened to be wrapped in a small bamboo forest.
When sitting in the courtyard, Mu Xiwan remembered Feng Chengyi's back. If you can sit with him in this bamboo forest, it is not a good thing for him to play the flute and dance with her.
It's just that as soon as this idea came to mind, she pushed it away.
Rejected the request of the city lord to set up a banquet and hospitality, and only ate some in the evening, and in the dead of night, asked Mei'er to stay aside, and Mu Xiwan took out the "Poison Book" and began to study it carefully.
She had indeed seen this kind of poison at the time, but it was also a quick glance, and she didn't pay much attention to it, and it was a blessing in misfortune to be able to remember a rough idea.
