The next day, the yamen was calm, as if nothing had happened last night, but the city gate was once again strengthened its vigilance, and this time the yamen also sent people to various pharmacies in the city to strictly check the people who bought medicine for the wounds.

Anyone who buys medicine for injuries will be followed and traced.

As soon as Shen Xi saw it, he knew that the yamen had been stolen again.

In the past, there were petty thieves in the city, but they didn't dare to steal to the government, even those Jiangyang thieves regarded the government as a forbidden place, and they didn't dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool.

If you can't get along with anyone, don't get along with the government, that's not looking for death?

But less than a year after An Rusheng took office, the government was stolen twice, but An Rusheng didn't dare to publicize the matter, which can only show that the stolen things are not the property of the government at all, but An Rusheng's personal "private property".

In the past, Shen Xi noticed that An Rusheng seemed to be a decent person, but in fact he was a complete hypocrite, and An Rusheng, who had been an official for many years, should have reaped a lot of benefits in private.

"Auntie, be careful when you go to the Chamber of Commerce today, there are bandits in the city, and there may be danger."

Because the government has to secretly communicate with the various pharmacies in the city, Hui Niang also knows what happened, and she is a little later than she used to go to the Chamber of Commerce. Before she left, Shen Xi specially reminded.

Hui Niang nodded knowingly, last night the two said that Zuo Cheng Jiang Liwei of Nanjing Dali Temple came to Tingzhou Mansion, which should be related to the bandits in the city, and now the official mansion has been stolen again, proving that what Shen Xi said is true.

In fact, the reason why Shen Xi said this was mainly to reassure Hui Niang, and the matter had nothing to do with the Miao fugitives.

In the morning, Shen Xi was reading books upstairs in the pharmacy, and just after the hour, Su Tong actually came to the door to invite Shen Xi to go out to play.

Zhou thought that Shen Xi went out with Su Tong yesterday and actually got acquainted with a five-grade court official, and his heart blossomed, and he didn't mean to stop him at all. Su Tong reminded:

"Brother Shen, this time it was the jade lady of the official office who was invited, saying that Xi'er did not come out to welcome guests yesterday, and the hospitality was not thorough. Let me invite you and Jiang Gongzi to come over as reparations. However, she said that Xi'er occasionally felt that the cold had not yet healed, so she asked you to help bring a pair of medicines. ”

Shen Xi thought to himself, "Xi'er was so seriously injured yesterday. almost died of excessive blood loss, and today she had to come out to meet guests, obviously trying to cover it up and not let Jiang Liwei suspect her. said that he wanted to treat the cold medicine, but it was obviously a medicine for injuries. But looking back. Since it was the only way to invite Jiang Li, if Jiang Liwei saw that he was taking the medicine for injuries, how could he not doubt it? ”

Shen Xi thought about it, but went inside, and told Zhou that Jiang Liwei was sick and was going to visit with Su Tong.

When Zhou heard this, he hurriedly asked Xiaoyu to catch the medicine according to the prescription prescribed by Shen Xi, because the official who came to go undercover recognized Shen Xi, and Su Tong himself was a celebrity in Fucheng, so he didn't ask at all. Shen Xi went out with the medicine.

Su Tong took Shen Xi to invite Jiang Liwei first.

At this time, Jiang Liwei was about to go out, with a few entourages by his side. Seeing Shen Xi holding the medicine in his hand, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Shen Gongzi, this medicine is really a cure for wind and cold?" ”

Shen Xi said with a smile: "The medicine was prescribed by the doctor in our pharmacy, I guess it's right." ”

Jiang Liwei smiled, turned around and gave a few orders to the attendant, asking one of the attendants to leave in a hurry, and then turned around and said, "Miss Xi'er, please, then I really want to go over and have a look, go." ”

Shen Xi thought to himself. Jiang Liwei wouldn't think that this was wound medicine, and was going to notify the prefect's yamen, and then catch a spot in the Teaching Workshop Division, right?

Shen Xi was puzzled, and went to the teaching workshop with Su Tong and Jiang Li.

It's not yet noon. This time period is not the normal business hours of the Teaching Workshop Division, but Yu Niang warmly welcomed the three of them to the upstairs banquet living room, and asked Yun Liu and a few girls to come out to accompany the wine, and the medicine brought by Shen Xi, Yu Niang didn't look at it, so she asked the maid to send it to Xi'er.

Jiang Liwei smiled: "Jade Niang." Didn't you say that Miss Xi'er would come, why didn't she see anyone? ”

Yu Niang pursed her lips and smiled: "Xi'er heard that Lord Jiang came from afar, and it is a pity that I didn't see it yesterday. However, this girl is tricky, I heard that Jiang Da is a good learner, and she is both civil and military, and wants to set up a small competition, if any of the three sons can win, you can follow Yunliu to her room, and she will pour wine herself......"

Jiang Liwei had a suspicious look on his face, obviously not figuring out the hole cards of Yu Niang and Xi'er.

Jiang Liwei now only suspects that the case of the theft of the official mansion last night is related to Yunliu and Xi'er, before yesterday's accident, he was personally in the teaching department, and he had tested Yunliu, but Xi'er had never seen it, and the case was very likely to be done by Xi'er. But last night the thief clearly suffered a serious arrow wound, if it was Xi'er who was injured, how could Yu Niang take the initiative to invite him today?

"It's interesting, I wonder what the competition is?" Jiang Liwei asked with a very graceful look.

"Shoot overlay."

When Yu Niang said this, Su Tong couldn't help but look at Shen Xi with a wry smile, but Jiang Liwei didn't think so.

Jiang Liwei said: "Then bother Miss Xi'er to set the question." ”

Waiting for Yu Niang to turn around and go out, Su Tongcai reminded: "Brother Gu Yu, you may not know something, if you want to talk about shooting, Brother Shen, he can pinch it, and you and I will definitely lose." ”

Jiang Liwei disagreed: "Brother Su also mentioned it yesterday, but if you let me admit defeat, I am really unwilling." ”

Between words and laughter, Yu Niang turned back, held the wooden box in her hand, knelt down, and put the box on the small square table in front of the three people: "Three sons, you can shoot over, the slave family Dai Xi'er's girl is the person who sets the question, if the three of them have any questions, just ask the slave family." ”

Jiang Liwei smiled: "It's in front of you, it's too easy." ”

Shen Xi couldn't help but look at Jiang Li's only eye, the box was tightly sealed, and there was no clue at all, you said it was easy for you to guess. Even a few women next to him gathered around, leaning against the small square table, trying to guess what was inside the wooden box.

Shen Xi's shooting was accurate before, because he guessed the mind of the person who set the question, including Xi'er's psychology of stealing and playing tricks, but this time he gave him a topic to guess for no reason, and he didn't even have the owner of the matter, so he didn't have any clue at all.

But this topic is set up, there is a problem in itself, Xi'er has injuries on her body, she really dares to invite Zuo Cheng of Dali Temple to her room? Isn't that all the stuff exposed?

Just when he was confused, Shen Xi suddenly felt someone touch his back, and the place where he was sitting at this time was next to Yunliu. It was Yun Liu who wrote something on his back with his fingers, Shen Xi closed his eyes slightly, felt the words on his back, and immediately understood, this topic had been prepared a long time ago, it may be that Yu Niang and Yun Liu deliberately let him win in order to enter Xi'er's room.

Wrench ......

"Three sons. Who comes first? ”

Yu Niang's face was normal, and she said with a smile.

Jiang Liwei hesitated for a moment and looked at Su Tong: "Brother Su came first?" ”

Su Tong shook his head and said, "Let's let Brother Shen come." Just let Brother Gu Yu see Brother Shen's ability to shoot over. ”

In this way, everyone present looked at Shen Xi. Shen Xi hesitated for a moment before he sighed slightly and said, "I guess that this is a jade wrench." ”

Yu Niang's face showed surprise: "Shen Gongzi is really clever, but I don't know how to calculate that it is the jade wrench?" As he spoke, he opened the wooden box. Inside is a jade wrench, the jade color is not very good, and it is not worth much money.

Jiang Liwei looked at Shen Xi curiously, and couldn't guess how Shen Xi knew. However, Su Tong had such an expression on his face: "Look, Shen Gongzi can pinch and calculate, the innate gossip divination technique is superb, and it is clear what is in it...... How do we compare ourselves to him? ”

Shen Xi didn't explain, and shook his head with a smile: "The small skill of carving insects is not enough to worry about." But since you have won in the next game, can you meet Miss Xi'er first? ”

Yu Niang pursed her lips and smiled. Indescribably charming and moving: "This is natural, Master Jiang, Master Su, since Shen Gongzi wins, let him go to meet Xi'er first, and then let Xi'er come out to drink with the two of them later." ”

Jiang Liwei still had a smile on his face, but Shen Xi could detect that he was still suspecting that there was something strange in this, and finally Jiang Liwei nodded, and watched Shen Xi go to Xi'er's room under the guidance of Yunliu.

Wait until you open the door and go inside. The room was quiet, only a cough could be heard, and Xi'er sat on the bed, although she was wearing heavy makeup. But the weakness on his face was difficult to hide, and he kept coughing, and he looked sick and weak.

Although Xi'er tried her best to suppress the volume, it could be clearly heard in the room, if it weren't for the fact that the banquet hall where the party was located was far away from this room, maybe it was Jiang Li's only martial arts. It can be perceived.

"Huh?"

As soon as he arrived at the inner curtain, he saw this situation, and Shen Xi turned around to leave. At this time, Yun Liu suddenly knelt on the ground, lowered his body, and kowtowed to Shen Xi and said, "Please ask Shen Gongzi to help me and save my life......

Before Shen Xi could reach out to help, Xi'er wanted to say something, but she didn't have the strength to speak at all, her injury was not serious, it was not light, and it would take at least a month or two to recuperate before the wound could gradually heal.

Now she couldn't even speak, let alone walk.

"I'm here to meet Miss Xi'er today, why is it like this? Alas, it's better to say goodbye in the next. Shen Xi pretended not to know.

"You...... What do you pretend...... Confused......"

Xi'er struggled to squeeze out a few words from her mouth.

Yun Liu said: "Xi'er was fortunate to be rescued by Shen Gongzi yesterday, and only then did he get back a small life, and now the city is being searched, and Dali Temple Cheng is here again, obviously aware of something." If Shen Gongzi can't help, not only Xi'er's life will not be guaranteed, but even the little girl and Yu Niang, as well as the officials and the upper and lower ......"

Shen Xixin said, where is this a place for people to find flowers and willows to find a happy life, it is simply a den of thieves.

Shen Xi shook his head and said, "I may not be able to help in the future." ”

Yun Liu still knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Shen Xi three times, and even saw a slight bruise on his forehead: "Shen Gongzi, you are a person with great wisdom, the little woman was afraid that you would not be able to shoot before, and she reminded you behind your back, but you concluded that it was a jade wrench finger in one bite, which is amazing!" ”

"Yesterday, you stopped Xi'er's bleeding without using medicine, how superb is this technique? The little woman also knows a little about medicine, but in terms of attainments, it is difficult to look at Shen Gongzi's back. Ask Shen Gongzi for mercy, the little woman Dai Yuniang, and the officials from top to bottom, thank Shen Gongzi for his kindness, and the grass title ring in the next life will be repaid. ”

Shen Xi smiled bitterly, the reason why he was able to shoot the jade wrench inside was because he had seen Xi'er's jewelry with a jade wrench, usually his daughter's family wears a ring, and few women can wear a wrench, so he paid attention.

Shen Xi sighed: "This ...... The knowledge is shallow, and he only has some superficial knowledge of medical skills, and he can't use them freely. ”

Yun Liu's face was full of panic when he heard this: "How is this good?" Whether Master Jiang is coming, or someone from the government is coming to search, how can she hide when she sees Xi'er like this? Will there be eggs under the nest? ”

Shen Xi helped the restless Yunliu up, and sighed slightly, but at this time, Xi'er's side was very strong: "One person does things and one person is responsible, I ...... Just leave, and don't affect Yu Niang and the sisters......"
