Chapter 45: Intentions
Accompanied by the barking of chickens and dogs, Wang Ran woke up leisurely, looked left and right, but did not see Li Jin'er and Li Zongyu, only to see the surrounding mounds as walls, on top of the frame, thatched roof, it seems to be a thatched hut, the house is poorly furnished, except for the bed where he is lying, and a small pestle next to the bed, there is nothing else.
Wang Ran barely propped up his body and sat up from the bed, the wound was torn painfully, and when he looked down, he found that his upper body was naked, only a coarse cloth was obliquely wrapped in front of his right chest, and there was a ball of blood on the cloth. I wanted to open my mouth to call someone, but I found that my throat was dry, and I pulled the wound again, and he was sweating profusely from the pain.
The door was suddenly pushed open, and Li Jin'er walked in with a bowl, followed by Li Zongyu with a basin of water. Li Jin'er saw Wang Ranjing sitting on the bed naked, her pretty face was slightly red, and she immediately said urgently: "Why are you sitting up, what if you tear the wound open again, lie down quickly." After that, he hurriedly put the bowl on the pestle to help Wang Ran, and felt a little embarrassed, so he glared at Li Zongyu, and Li Zongyu put down the basin and helped Wang Ran to lean on the bed.
"Where is this?" Wang Ran was weak and his voice was hoarse.
"Jinbai Village, Zitong County, in Mianzhou, yesterday we cleaned up those guards and came back to see you unconscious, so we took you here." Li Zongyu said.
Li Jin'er saw that Wang Ran was about to open her mouth, so she hurriedly said: "Don't speak, you will be verbose when you have strength." He glared at Li Zongyu again: "Hurry up and change the medicine for him." ”
Li Zongyu rolled his eyes, took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, uncovered the cloth on Wang Ran's chest, and saw that the wound was oozing some blood, so he wiped it with the cloth.
Seeing this, Li Jin'er hurriedly said, "You lighten it." After speaking, he was still not at ease, pushed Li Zongyu away, took out a handkerchief and wiped Wang Ran's wound personally.
Li Zongyu's face was full of helplessness, and he said aggrievedly: "This little injury, I see that you are in a hurry, I am also injured, why didn't I see you feel sorry for me?" ”
Li Jin'er noticed the ridicule in Li Zongyu's words, and her face was a little shy, but she pretended to be calm and said, "What's the injury?" Why didn't you say it yesterday? ”
"Now." Li Zongyu stretched out his hand and pretended to be pitiful: "Yesterday, in order to avenge Wang Qi, my hands were swollen. Seeing Li Jin'er's discoloration, her eyes were full of murder, and she hurriedly sneered: "But it's better now." ”
Li Jin'er gently sprinkled some gold sore medicine on Wang Ran's wound, took a cloth and bandaged the wound well, then breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the bowl of porridge and handed it to Li Zongyu and said, "Feed him, light." ”
Li Zongyu reluctantly took the bowl and fed Wang Ran porridge, although his hands were no longer light or heavy, his mouth did not stop: "Oh, Wang Qi, you are really blessed, you don't know how anxious Jin'er was when she saw you fainting yesterday, the car was almost driven apart by her, and after finding here, she took care of you for half a night, I have never seen her care about others so much, it is really a woman's ......."
"Huh?" Li Jin'er snorted threateningly behind her, and Li Zongyu changed her words: "The eighteenth female college has changed, and they have learned to take care of people." ”
Wang Ran's heart warmed when he heard this, and his originally depressed mood was also diluted.
After eating the porridge, Wang Ran gradually gained strength, so he asked softly: "The chasing soldiers have been solved?" Is there a living mouth? ”
Li Zongyu said with a straight face: "No, Jin'er and I were both angry at that time, and we were a little more ruthless, and those guards were also fighting with their lives, and they never stopped." But only five of the guards chased after him, and one was missing. ”
Wang Ran said gloomily: "I'm sorry, it was my judgment that caused Qi Yuanzhen to die, and caused you to waste all your efforts." ”
"Don't mind, the plan was drawn up by us together, how can it be up to you alone. And who would have thought that those guards would have no scruples about Qi Yuanzhen's life. Although Li Zongyu was also a little disappointed in his heart, he himself had an open-minded personality, but he quickly saw it.
"I think it's more likely that they deliberately killed him, Qi Yuanzhen said that he knew some of Wang Jien's unsightly secrets, and Wang Jien sent him guards not only to protect him, but also to monitor." Wang Ran calmly judged.
"Did Qi Yuanzhen say anything before he died?" Li Jin'er asked.
Wang Ran sighed lightly, retold the conversation he had with Qi Yuanzhen before he fainted yesterday, and then said, "Before he died, he was already unconscious, and what he said was all nonsense, and I couldn't figure it out. ”
"Master? You ask him why he wants to harm your master, but he says how his master treats him badly. Li Zongyu was also puzzled, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly frowned, and asked, "Wang Qi, what does your master do?" ”
"Lang Zhong, and his medical skills are very exquisite, and he is known as the Holy Hand of Rejuvenation." Wang Ran replied.
Li Zongyu's eyes lit up, and he suddenly said: "That's right, do you know what Qi Yuanzhen used to do?" Li Jin'er kicked him and scolded: "If you have something to say, when will you still sell Guanzi!" ”
Li Zongyu had no choice but to ask himself: "Medical worker, last time I went back to Tokyo, I asked someone to inquire about his background, a few days ago, I wrote from home that he was suddenly promoted to the chief secretary of Chenliu County in the fifth year of Taiping Xingguo, and before that he was only a small medical worker in the Taiyi Bureau, so he ......."
"So the master in his mouth may be my master Wang Zhichuan, and he is actually my ...... Brother. Although Wang Ran didn't want to accept it, he also knew that this was the only reasonable explanation, and continued: "That's right, Sister Xiaocui said that I was born on the winter solstice in the fourth year of Taiping Xingguo, and Qi Yuanzhen said that I hurt Master and Sister Xiaocui, so he was because I betrayed Master, causing Master to take me to Shuzhong to avoid trouble, and then he was transferred to Yongkang County to serve as the county commander, and found our traces, so he led people to besiege Caolu and kill us." "So who am I? Who are my parents?
"In this way, your identity should not be very simple, Qi Yuanzhen was promoted from a small medical worker to a Bomai envoy by betraying you." Li Zongyu said solemnly.
Li Jin'er saw that Wang Ran was full of sadness, and for some reason she felt very uncomfortable, so she comforted: "Don't blame yourself too much, it's not your reason to be calculated by such wolf-hearted people." ”
A trace of warmth rose in Wang Ran's heart, and he bowed his head slightly: "Well, I should cheer up even more, Qi Yuanzhen not only harmed my master and Sister Xiaocui, but my father's death may also have something to do with him, although he is dead now, the people behind him may still be alive, I also want to live well, find out the truth, find out those crimes to the capital, and avenge my family!" ”
Li Zongyu also said excitedly: "Yes, Qi Yuanzhen is dead, isn't Wang Jien still alive, let's go and tie him up, ask him why he wants to hurt you, who else are his accomplices, and then let's go to the door one by one, so that they all deserve it." ”
"Uh-huh." Li Jin'er also nodded in agreement.
Looking at the appearance of the Li brothers and sisters who have the same hatred for the enemy, Wang Ran is like a spring breeze, and his heart is full of emotion.
After being moved, we still have to face the reality, Wang Ran said: "What are your plans next?" You also said that Wang Jien is cautious and suspicious, and his guards around him are far better than Qi Yuanzhen, if you want to tie him up, I'm afraid it will be difficult to reach the sky. "Wang Jien is in a high position and has heavy troops, it is much more difficult to deal with him than Qi Yuanzhen.
Li Zongyu was deflated, and said after a while: "We are going to go back to Tokyo first, to deal with a powerful person like him, it may not be possible to succeed only by assassination, we still have to start from the temple, only by finding a way to knock it down to the mortal dust, can we do it." Then his face was solemn: "And there seems to be something going on at home, my mother sent us a letter asking us to go back as soon as possible." ”
"You go to Tokyo with us, after solving the affairs at home, let's find a way to find Wang Jien for revenge together." Li Jin'er said softly.
Wang Ran thought for a while, shook his head lightly and said, "I want to go back to Chengdu first, and I am a little worried about Sister Jiuniang and them." ”
"Are you afraid that the rebels will attack Chengdu, and Aunt Lin will suffer from them?" Li Jin'er immediately gained insight into Wang Ran's thoughts, but did not approve of his choice, and said in a deep voice: "Fighting a war is a game of thousands of troops, what role can you play alone?" The ability is not big, but it is always good to be brave. ”
"There are always more ways for multiple people, and if the rebels succeed in capturing the city, I can also ask Brother Wang to help take care of them." Wang Ran said firmly.
After getting along for more than two months, Li Jin'er also knew that he was this kind of character, and he would always try his best to help people who were good to him, and he was very reluctant, so he had to give up persuasion, but he still couldn't help but remind: "Then you have to promise that you will only guard Aunt Lin and them, and don't want to help the righteous army seize the city." ”
Wang Ran's expression was stunned, why was she ignorant about other things, guessing my mind but always in a word, Wang Ran didn't want to deceive Li Jin'er, so she wanted to admit it, but seeing that her eyes were full of sincerity, her heart was both moved and unbearable, so she had to bow her head and say: "Well, I promise you, I will only guard the Wang family teahouse when I return to Chengdu, and once I can ensure their safety, I will leave for Tokyo to find you." ”
Li Jin'er breathed a sigh of relief, and felt that she was a little embarrassed just now, so she pretended to be coquettish and said: "I don't care about you, you still owe me a favor, and you will need your intrigues to deal with Wang Jien when the time comes, so you can't die now." ”
Wang Ran hurriedly nodded yes, but he was overjoyed in his heart. Li Zongyu also looked teasing, but he felt a little sour, and he felt that his daughter was abducted by a bastard.
