Compared with the Dongyang Eldest Princess's Mansion, which is loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and the Yue Mansion, which seems to be undefended at all, the Jiawang Mansion Courtyard is a decent mansion at first glance. Because the real palace is far away in the northwest, even if this annex in Jinling essentially serves as the responsibility of the palace in Jinling, it can only be called the palace, and the guards and subordinates are far less than the real palace.

However, the first time I came here, Yue Qianqiu followed the little fat man all the way, only to see the pavilions, flowers and trees are all carefully maintained, and the quality of the people is also very good, whether it is to retreat and salute, or to treat people, compared with those top courtyards, it is not inferior, as if there is a very good family to take care of.

Faced with such details, Yue Qianqiu, who knew how difficult it was for housekeepers, couldn't help but feel a stir in his heart. Of course, he doesn't know the price of firewood and rice, but compared with the difference between the third wife who was in charge of the Yue family in the past and the eldest wife who is now in charge, he knows how rare some talents are. Although this annex should not have so many housework, it has been vacant for many years and is now so presentable, and the effort can be imagined.

So, when he saw that the butler who was leading the way with a smile on his face, he thanked the little fat man again and again, so he interjected: "It seems that it has been more than 20 years since the completion of this courtyard, right?" The house is still as elegant and orderly as new, and King Jia and the prince should really reward you for your dedication. ”

The housekeeper suddenly smiled even more happily, but said humbly: "Where, the ninth prince is really a false praise." We just try our best to maintain this courtyard, we don't dare to say that it is elegant, where do we dare to praise it, as long as the prince thinks it is acceptable, we are content. There are many old mansions in Jinling City that have been inherited for a hundred years, and now they look at the simple and elegant, which is the first-class taste. ”

"That's different, those century-old mansions are all people's lives, and with popularity, they are naturally not easy to decay. This courtyard has been empty for so long in the past, if it is replaced by another house, from the house to the decay of the furnishings, most of the people up and down are tired and lazy, how can there be the spirit of this Jiawang Mansion Courtyard? From this point of view, His Royal Highness King Jia really chose a good housekeeper! ”

The little fat man didn't expect Yue Qianqiu to repeatedly praise a housekeeper, and he felt a little unhappy, and couldn't help but squint and want to stare at him, but seeing Zhou Jiyue's face was indifferent, but his eyes were a little sharp, he couldn't help but wonder secretly, is it not easy to maintain this courtyard like this? Thinking about it, he looked at the butler's gaze unconsciously revealing a bit of scrutiny.

And the housekeeper hurriedly bowed his head, but he didn't dare to make a sound, and he really didn't even say anything. Seeing his pus-like appearance, the little fat man suddenly overturned his previous speculation that he thought that this was the number one person, and his chin rose again. When he finally came to Li Chongming's bedroom where he lived and slept on weekdays, he saw that Li Chongming had already gone out and helped the maid to greet him, so he didn't have time to think about it anymore.

However, after not seeing him for three or four days, he saw that Li Chongming, who was still wrapped in a white cloth on his forehead, was actually a few points of pinned bones, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a while. Even if on weekdays, when this kid is competing for performance in front of the emperor, he can't wait for people to die, but when he sees people in such a situation at this time, even if he can't talk about sympathy, he really mutters a little in his heart.

So, the little fat man walked a few steps forward and said with a big grin: "It's only been a few days, why don't you know how to maintain it?" I'm here to see you, how can I let the patient be greeted outside? Hurry inside, don't be so polite! ”

Yue Qianqiu, who followed later, saw that Li Chongming first said thank you to the fourth uncle, and then stared at the little fat man with deep eyes for a long time, and finally spit out a word. He had always believed in his hunch, because it was really ...... The good ones don't work, the bad ones don't work!

Seeing that Li Chongming entered the house sideways, the little fat man was about to follow, and when he was hesitating, he only heard Li Chongming in front of him suddenly say quietly: "Thank you Ninth Prince and Sect Master Zhou for accompanying His Royal Highness the King of England, are you waiting outside, or are you coming in together?" ”

Before the little fat man could make a decision, Yue Qianqiu immediately said to himself: "Just let the guards wait outside, as for us, we are actually here with His Royal Highness the King to visit the patient." My sister is a rejuvenation, and Sect Master Zhou is also a close friend of the rejuvenating view of the high-footed Song sister, those diseases that can't be cured by quack doctors, the two of us will give you a pulse and keep your medicine until the disease is eliminated! ”

The little fat man originally hoped that Yue Qianqiu and Zhou Jiyue would be by his side, so that no one would watch him when he acted alone, but now Yue Qianqiu's acting skills were so exaggerated, he couldn't help but feel very strange. What he didn't expect was that Zhou Jiyue didn't make derogatory remarks because of Yue Qianqiu's open-mindedness, but said lightly: "I don't dare to say anything about the medicine, but I can always give some useful advice." ”

Both of them said so, and Li Chongming was speechless for a while. When he entered the house with the three of them, he saw that the four guards brought by the little fat man covered the door from outside, and saw that the posture would definitely be like a stake there, he walked a few steps forward with vague steps, but he did not expect that a pair of strong hands immediately stretched out beside him to hold his arm.

"His Royal Highness has already said that the prince is not polite, you don't sit and talk, go to bed and lie down. The patient should be like a patient, don't be reckless. ”

couldn't resist it, Li Chongming saw that the little fat man was smiling and didn't speak, so he didn't refuse. When he was pressed on the bed by Yue Qianqiu and sat down, and his body was tightly wrapped in a quilt, he saw that the little fat man actually moved a brocade pier by himself and sat down by the bed, and he didn't know what it was like, let alone what to say.

The little fat man coughed lightly and said seriously: "I came over today to see how you are doing." After all, others don't know, and we know that although you are a traumatic injury, you are actually a heart disease. Seeing that you are like this now, when I go back and say, my father must not be at ease. Qianqiu, are you still Sect Master Zhou trying to take the pulse? ”

Are you still serious?

Yue Qianqiu saw the little fat man with a wicked smile on his face, and immediately grabbed Li Chongming's left wrist pulse and auscultated it decently. However, this thing of traditional Chinese medicine is not something that ordinary people can learn, just like him, although there is Su Shiqi, a teacher, who is close to the water and the building is the first to get the moon, but he just can't feel the name except for the beating pulse anyway.

For example, what floats, what astringent, what slippery...... Oh, and it is naturally impossible for a man to diagnose a slippery pulse. All in all, he was really just acting illusory at the moment, but in fact, he didn't hear anything except hearing Li Chongming's extremely fast heartbeat. But just that heartbeat, that's already telling.

He pretended to look at Li Chongming deeply, and then handed over the wrist he grabbed to Zhou Jiyue, and whispered to her: "Jiyue, can you listen?" Although external injuries are easy to treat, but heart diseases are difficult to treat, I dare to say that King Jia's son is not only a heart disease, but also something that has accumulated in his internal organs, which is already terrifying. ”

Zhou Jiyue couldn't help but be angry and funny when she saw that Yue Qianqiu was still pretending to be a famous doctor, but she had always been used to cooperating with him in front of outsiders, so she put her hand on Li Chongming's left wrist, and she was going to say something godly, but as soon as she listened attentively, she found that the heartbeat was so fast that it was not like words, and there was a certain incongruity hidden in the pulse.

Although the weakness after the trauma, coupled with the mood that is difficult to express in words, Li Chongming's pulse confusion at this time is predictable, but Zhou Jiyue is different from Yue Qianqiu after all, after returning from Jinling that year, he took over as the sect master of the White Lotus Sect, and he has been crawling for six years, in addition to dealing with various challenges and discussions on the surface, there are also a lot of calculations in the dark, so he is more familiar with certain things.

That kind of weakness is not like poisoning, but like having problems with diet and recuperation when the trauma is not healed, and eating something that is not conducive to the recovery of the injury......

Therefore, she stared at Li Chongming directly for a while, and finally said meaningfully: "Originally, when His Royal Highness the King of England asked me and Qianqiu to help as lobbyists, I still didn't agree with it, but now it seems that the atmosphere of this Jiawang Mansion is indeed not suitable for people to recuperate from injuries and illnesses. ”

The little fat man was expecting Yue Qianqiu to provoke the topic, but he didn't expect Zhou Jiyue to be so active, and he was overjoyed, and immediately nodded again and again: "That's right, that's the reason!" Don't you know, since there was such an unbelievable thing as robbing the law field, now there are rumors everywhere in Jinling City, saying that Lou Yingchang, the deputy envoy of the Northern Yan Autumn Hunting Division, has sneaked in again, and is stirring up trouble everywhere......"

When the little fat man was nagging and talking to himself, Zhou Jiyue saw that Li Chongming's face was slightly pale at first, and then the right hand hidden in the quilt seemed to be trembling slightly, and when she heard Lou Yingchang's three words, she saw that the prince of Jiawang was trembling violently. With such a clear response, it was hard for her to miss it.

Just as she was about to say something, she saw Li Chongming suddenly pull out his other hand from the quilt, and actually held the right hand she had just used to diagnose the pulse, and said in a trembling voice: "Sect Master Zhou, Qianqiu said that I have accumulated things in my internal organs, and you said that the local qi of the Jiawang Mansion is not conducive to recuperation, is it possible to say that I will die?" ”

Zhou Jiyue didn't expect Li Chongming to suddenly show such a posture of being afraid of death, and after being stunned for a while, she felt that something soft was stuffed into her hands. If Li Chongming's reaction was very strange when he just found out that the little fat man said the three words Lou Yingchang, then now that the other party made such a clear move, she realized that the matter was not trivial.

And Yue Qianqiu, whose eyes were poisonous and definitely not slower than her reaction, was the first to press the little fat man's hand to prevent him from saying the words of taking Li Chongming back to the palace.

Thankfully, the little fat man is finally a very fast person, from Li Chongming's abnormality, Zhou Jiyue's silence, and Yue Qianqiu's movements, he keenly sensed that things didn't seem to be so right.

So, when the little fat man came to his mouth, he immediately changed: "I think that your courtyard looks very good, but it's not good to be bored at home after all, so you might as well go out for a walk." You see, I'm hanging out with Qianqiu and them in the Wuying Pavilion right now, and it's much more fun than the dull place of Guozixue. I'll go back and tell my father about it, and I'll just let you come to the Wuying Pavilion as well......"

Yue Qianqiu saw Zhou Jiyue quietly tugging the things that Li Chongming stuffed into his sleeves, and heard the little fat man chattering about pretending to be a good uncle, he had to admit that once the little fat man became smart, it was really reassuring.

Taking advantage of the little fat man's speech, he pretended to be absent-minded, but in fact quickly took a look at the surroundings from the corner of his eye, and noted down the copper pipes that might be equipped with eavesdropping, or set up peepholes, or even places where there might be secret passages. He had undergone special training in these things when he went to Beiyan, and although he had no ability to do anything, he also had a few suspicions.

Seeing that the little fat man was nagging endlessly, he yawned as if he had no rules, and then said angrily: "Ying Xiaopang, are you still finished?" I'm just with Ji Yue, casually scaring King Jia's son with a few words. Heart disease, maybe it's good if you're scared! You're not really that close to him on weekdays, what kind of good uncle are you pretending to be at this time? ”

The little fat man's first reaction was to be furious, but then he chuckled in his heart. The angry thing is that Yue Qianqiu unceremoniously dismantled his stage, but what surprised him was that Yue Qianqiu obviously asked him to act well, why did he remind him not to pretend at this time? Combined with the series of anomalies just now, he immediately jumped up.

"Yue Qianqiu, what do you mean? What do you mean by me pretending to be an uncle? I was meant to be a good uncle! ”

"Come on, if you really want to be a good uncle, I have your surname! Isn't it just about to become a prince, so hurry up to maintain your image? Yue Qianqiu deliberately raised his voice, and then laughed, "The prince of Jiawang is not a stupid person, he has already seen it." With his body, you can do enough to look good, if you stay longer, it will just delay other people's injuries and delays other people's rest, and you don't have a good heart! ”

"Who are you saying is not at ease!" The little fat man's voice also became louder all of a sudden, clenching his fists, and he seemed to be trembling with anger.

And Zhou Jiyue looked at Li Chongming who was in a daze on the bed, and saw that although his eyes were a little dull, but when they collided with her own gaze, she blinked her eyes very quickly, she immediately knew it, and immediately shouted in a deep voice: "Qianqiu, what kind of place is this, can't you restrain your bad temper?" Enough is enough? If you say enough, go out with His Royal Highness! ”

Sure enough, as soon as she said this, she only heard Li Chongming say in a dry and astringent voice: "Sect Master Zhou, you should also go out......

Seeing that Zhou Jiyue seemed to be a little surprised, Li Chongming buried his head between his hands, and said angrily: "I want to stay alone and be quiet, can you please take His Royal Highness the King and Prince Yue Jiu out?" ”

Yue Qianqiu deliberately made a fuss, just because he wanted Li Chongming's words, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief at this moment. However, before he could take the opportunity to continue the trick, a gloomy voice came from outside.

"Since the distinguished guest is here, why does the prince drive people out of the door? I heard that Yue Jiu Gongzi also praised it before, this Jiawang Mansion is doing well, since someone appreciates my hard work, then how can I not come to meet such a discerning person? ”
