Chapter Twenty-Three: A Small Change in Nie Stone
Qiu Luoxue walked out of the palace gate, got into the carriage and was just about to leave when she saw Xu Zhonghang coming out of the palace, and hurriedly waved and shouted: "Imperial Doctor Xu, Imperial Doctor Xu, here, here...... here"
Xu Zhonghang came out of the palace with a heavy heart, didn't pay attention to the carriage outside, heard Qiu Luoxue's voice, looked up, it turned out to be Qiu Luoxue, she smiled brightly when she waved at herself, very infectious.
"I really envy him, always smiling so happily." Xu Zhonghang said to himself, and walked towards Qiu Luoxue's carriage.
"Why did you suddenly enter the palace? I couldn't find anything I could ask you for. Qiu Luoxue stuck her head out of the window of the carriage and chatted with Xu Zhonghang.
"Oh, I'll go back to the hospital for those things." Xu Zhonghang did not say his true intentions.
Qiu Luoxue didn't care about this matter, after all, the imperial doctor could enter the palace at any time with a palace card, and she didn't know the delicate relationship between Xu Zhonghang and Duanfei Niangniang.
"Let's get in the car, we just want to go somewhere together." Qiu Luoxue said.
The carriage is driving on the road, and the main roads in the capital are very smooth, so the carriage walks very steadily, and Qiu Luoxue is now completely adapted to the carriage, and it feels similar to sitting in a modern car.
"What about Nie Gongzi? Didn't you go with an adult? On the way, Xu Zhonghang asked.
"He's ......," Qiu Luoxue said with a smile when he mentioned Nie Yuan, "He's not used to riding in a carriage, so he's following us somewhere we don't know." ”
Nie Yuan was following Qiu Luoxue's carriage at the moment, his light skills were very good, flying the eaves and walking the wall were not a problem, and he would not attract the attention of others. Qiu Luoxue travels by carriage, he follows her in this way.
Under the blue sky, a few clouds occasionally drifted by, and the sun's halo sprinkled from the sky, carrying heat. Nie Yuan was like a blackbird, shuttling easily through the eaves. He seems to be used to following Qiu Luoxue in this way, and he is starting to like this way. Whenever Qiu Luoxue needed him, he would be the first to fall by her side.
It was the same this time, Qiu Luoxue's carriage had just stopped in front of a dilapidated courtyard, and Nie Yuan slowly landed beside her.
"Although you have appeared with me like this many times, I still feel that the moment you appear is amazing." Qiu Luoxue looked at Nie Yuan and said.
Nie Yuan didn't answer Qiu Luoxue's words, and for a person like him, who was used to being silent, he didn't know how to take Qiu Luoxue's words just now, but he remembered what he had just said, and he carefully memorized every word.
Qiu Luoxue didn't expect Nie Yuan to pick up her words, she was used to her words being ignored by Nie Yuan.
"Let's go in, Jiang Jiang said that his mother lives here and is very sick, Imperial Doctor Xu, you can help take a look." Qiu Luoxue said that she had already stepped into the door.
"Who is Jiang Jiang?" Xu Zhonghang followed Qiu Luoxue in, and asked as he walked.
"Oh, it's the assassin I caught yesterday, the younger one is called Jiang Jiang, you weren't there in the morning, you shouldn't know this." Qiu Luoxue explained.
When the three of them walked into the courtyard, they saw that the courtyard looked more dilapidated than the outside, and it was small, and the stains on the walls showed that the house had not been renovated for many years.
"Here, how can it be broken like this, can it still live in people?" Xu Zhonghang saw the scene in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.
"Life is compelled to live and people can live if they can't live, it's better than sleeping on the streets." Qiu Luoxue said, feeling a little more sympathetic to the Jiang family.
As he was talking, a young woman came out of the dilapidated house, and when she saw the three of them, she asked, "Who are you?"
Qiu Luoxue looked her up and down, she was wearing a coarse cloth dress with patches on it, a wooden hairpin stuck in her head, and nothing else. However, despite this, it still failed to cover her natural beauty, and her face without powder was more pure, especially the eyes, which were very clear.
The woman was looked at by Qiu Luoxue like this, and her face blushed slightly. Qiu Luoxue looked at her impoliteness and said, "There is a lot of disturbance, is this Jiang Hai's family?"
"Yes, but Brother Jiang Hai is not here, do you have anything to do?" The girl asked.
"We are friends of Jiang Hai, and we are entrusted by him to see Mrs. Jiang." Qiu Luoxue said with a smile, trying to show a peaceful posture.
"Ling'er, who's out there?" An old voice came from inside the house, and Qiu Luoxue guessed that it must be Jiang Mu's voice.
"It's Brother Jiang Hai's friend, who said he was here to treat you." The woman called Ling'er replied to the room, then looked at Qiu Luoxue and the others, and said, "Please come in."
The three of them followed in, and the environment inside was much better than the outside, although it was also very shabby, but it was cleaned up by the owner. There are two rooms in this room, the outer one is the hall, and the inner one is Jiang's mother's bedroom.
The lighting in the house is not very good, and although it is daytime, it always looks dim. Mother Jiang was lying on the bed, and when she saw the three of them coming in, she struggled to get up, and Ling'er had already gone over to help her.
Qiu Luoxue saw that she was so difficult, so she hurriedly stepped forward to help her, and said, "You don't have to get up."
"No problem." Jiang Mu said with a gentle smile.
Qiu Luoxue looked at the gentle smile on her face, and couldn't help but think of someone. Her mother is not the prime minister's wife here, but her modern mother. When her mother died of illness while she was in college, she thought that if she could make more money to pay for the surgery, she might not die.
Therefore, when she learned these things from Jiang Jiangkou, she wanted to help them even more urgently. Maybe she is not helping others, but helping herself, helping herself to sweep away the regret of having no money to treat her mother's illness at the beginning.
Seeing the gentle smile on Jiang's mother's face at this moment, she couldn't help but think of her mother, and the softness in her heart was poked, and she almost burst into tears.
In order not to let herself continue to be immersed in the memories and reveal her flaws, Qiu Luoxue said to Imperial Doctor Xu: "You can help Old Madam Jiang diagnose the pulse first."
When Xu Zhonghang was checking Jiang's mother's pulse, Qiu Luoxue walked to the courtyard and sat down on the stone bench outside, the breeze drying her moist eyes.
"What's wrong with you?" Nie Yuan looked at the depressed Qiu Luoxue, and he felt that something was wrong when he was in the house just now.
Hearing Nie Yuan take the initiative to talk to herself, Qiu Luoxue was shocked for more than a minute or two, and asked in surprise, "Did you take the initiative to talk to me just now?" Wow, I'm so touched, I don't usually hurt you in vain. As she spoke, she also slapped Nie Yuan's arm with her little fist.
Nie Yuan saw that a smile appeared on Qiu Luoxue's face again, and he was also a lot relieved, so he said, "I saw that you weren't very happy just now."
"Well, it's not good, when I saw the situation in their family, I suddenly remembered some of the past." Qiu Luoxue said.
"Since it's a past that makes you unhappy, don't think about it." Nie Yuan said.
Qiu Luoxue was very moved when she heard that he was comforting herself, and said: "Although I will be unhappy when I think about it, it is also very warm." After speaking, she looked at Nie Yuan's puzzled expression, smiled and said, "You shouldn't understand this feeling, I didn't understand it before, but I understood it after experiencing some things."
After Xu Zhonghang stopped to diagnose Jiang's mother's pulse, Qiu Luoxue asked his subordinates to send medicinal materials according to the prescription he prescribed, these medicinal materials are very valuable, and ordinary people really can't afford to eat them, no wonder Jiang Hai wants to risk so much to kill her.
Qiu Luoxue couldn't help but sigh: Whether it is ancient or modern, it is difficult to see a doctor, and it is a big problem to see a doctor.
"Aunt Jiang, the son just now sent a lot of medicines and supplements, and your illness has finally come to an end." Ling'er looked at the medicine on the table and said happily.
Jiang's mother was a little faintly uneasy, and said: "Looking at the clothes of those sons, they are all rich and noble people, how can Haizi know them?"
"That Qiu Gongzi said that Brother Jiang Hai helped him, and he helped you treat your illness to thank Brother Jiang Hai." Ling'er said, "Qiu Gongzi also said that because there are still some things that need to be done by Brother Jiang Hai and Jiang Er, the two of them can't go home for the time being, let's not worry about it, they will come back when we are done." ”
Qiu Luoxue didn't tell Ling'er and Jiang Mu about it, thinking that if they knew the truth, they would be worried, and they might not accept their help.
"Whew, it feels good to do good."
When they went back, they didn't take the carriage, but walked to the main street to hang out, and Qiu Luoxue was in a good mood because she helped others.
"I really didn't expect you to choose to help them, the two sons of that family are assassins who want to kill you." Xu Zhonghang said.
"This is the policy of tenderness." Qiu Luoxue walked backwards, in order to see Xu Zhonghang and Nie Yuan, she said: "Jiang Hai is a very strong person, if we interrogate like this, we may not be able to ask for results." However, he has a weakness, that is, his mother and younger brother, and it is not difficult for us to dig out the mastermind behind him from his weakness. It's called a bloodless blade, got it? She smiled smugly.
"You still know how to fight bloodlessly, you know a lot."
Qiu Luoxue was walking backwards when suddenly a voice came from behind her, startling her, "Mom, I'm scared to death." Saying that, she turned her head and saw that it was Xia Ziyan, and she was ready to hit him, while saying: "What are you doing, scared to death, do you know that people are scared, scared to death."
Of course, Qiu Luoxue couldn't beat Xia Ziyan, as soon as she made a move, her wrist was grabbed by Xia Ziyan. Xia Ziyan's face was obviously close at hand, but Qiu Luoxue couldn't play it with her two hands, no matter how she scratched it, she couldn't reach him.
"Nie Shishi, he bullied me, hit him quickly." Qiu Luoxue had no choice but to ask Nie Yuan for help.
"He didn't dare to ...... this king" Xia Ziyan originally wanted to say, he didn't dare to do anything to this king, but before he finished speaking, Nie Yuan hit him in the arm with a scabbard, and he let go of Qiu Luoxue's wrist in pain.
"Well done." Seeing Nie Yuan doing something to Xia Ziyan without thinking, Qiu Luoxue couldn't help but cry out happily and gave him a thumbs up.
"You actually ......" Xia Ziyan looked at Nie Yuan in disbelief.
"The prince is angry, his subordinates are ordered by the emperor to protect the prime minister, and the lord is in danger, and his subordinates have no choice but to do it, please forgive me." Nie Yuan said calmly, he lifted out the emperor, so that Xia Ziyan couldn't be angry with him.
Seeing Xia Ziyan's breath-holding appearance, Qiu Luoxue couldn't help but feel good. When I looked at Nie Yuan, I appreciated it a little more.
"You've only known him for a few days, and you've been so protective of him, we've known each other for so long, and we've never seen you treat me so well." Xia Ziyan said again.
He was joking with Qiu Luoxue, and of course he knew that Nie Yuan was also joking with him. Xia Ziyan is a casual person, and he won't really get angry because of this kind of thing.
"Because you're not cute." After listening to Xia Ziyan's complaints, Qiu Luoxue said playfully, and didn't forget to ask Nie Yuan, "That's right, Nie Shishi." ”
She didn't expect Nie Yuan to answer her words, but she didn't expect him to answer seriously: "Yes."
Everyone else in the room was surprised. It seems that after Nie Yuan and Qiu Luoxue have been together for a long time, they have really changed. Seeing him have this kind of change, the most gratifying thing is Qiu Luoxue, she is finally no longer facing a cold stone. Inexplicably moved a handful.
