Li Shizhen came back from Huimin Pharmacy and asked the owner of the medical hall and the owner of the pharmacy in Qi Chengcheng to go to Xuanmiaoguan after three days to ask for an explanation from the Taoist priest who was deceiving the public.

When the news spread, there was an uproar inside and outside the city of Qizhou, and the people were talking about it after dinner: Doctor Li has rejuvenated countless people for more than 20 years, and he is very admired by the people; The Taoist master who traveled here, and many people have seen his powerful methods with their own eyes, these two fight, who wins and who loses?

There are even good people who have opened a gambling handicap and set the odds of both sides, causing all gamblers to bet one after another - I am afraid that if Li Shizhen knew that he would become the winner of the gambling game, he would only cry and laugh.

In the medical hall, it is even more lively, the disciples not only hope that Master Tai will show his prestige and subdue the demon Dao, but also worry that the Taoist priest is strong, in case Li Shizhen misses, won't he break the name of the medical hall and let others see the joke?

On this day, when it was time for self-study in the school, Pang Xian went to the lobby of the medical hall, and the students talked about it, and some people proposed to quietly go to the mysterious temple to investigate and feel the details of the demon road, so as to prepare in advance; Some people also say that when the time comes, he will quietly bring some black dog blood, and whenever something is wrong, he will splash it towards the demon road, breaking his demon magic.

The only one who was confident was Qin Lin, and he emphasized in an irrefutable tone that Li Shizhen would definitely be able to subdue the demon Dao this time.

Qin Lin repeatedly insisted on his judgment, and some people were not convinced, and a senior brother refuted: "Senior Brother Qin, don't underestimate others, although the foolish brother has not seen it with his own eyes, but my father went to join in the fun, and came back to say that the real person's Taoism is so powerful, he has cultivated the three flavors of true fire, he can kill demons and subdue demons, and he has the Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Righteous Method......"

This is a false rumor, right? Qin Lin just shook his head and smiled, that "real person" and him had known each other for a long time, and the trick of the so-called Daoist master had long been seen through by him.

"That's it," Qin Lin thought for a while, took out a large silver ingot with fifty taels from the drawer and handed it to Lu Yuanzhi, "Fatty, take it to the gambling stall for me, and buy Master Tai to win-I advise you, Master Tai is sure to win, you have to bet quickly, if you win, you will be yours, and if you lose, you will be mine, so you will always believe it, right?" ”

Qin Lin has been generous since he came to the medical hall, and often invites his brothers and sisters to eat in the restaurant, everyone knows that he is rich, since he is willing to go to the bottom, who would not believe it?

Although he did not have a large piece of silver ingot, each of them also had some private money, more than three taels of silver, and less than one or two strings of copper coins, which was worth about fifty taels of silver when summed up.

Even Qing Dai took five taels of silver for her private money.

"I believe that Grandpa will definitely be able to refute the demon way," Qing Dai said sternly, and then she was embarrassed, lowered her head and looked at Qin Lin, and whispered, "Of course, I also believe in Senior Brother Qin." ”

After a while, Lu Yuanzhi ran back sweating profusely, still holding a stack of gambling tickets in his hand and handing them out to the senior brothers.

Compared with the demon path that suddenly appeared, Li Shizhen is more trustworthy, and everyone said that this is a sure thing, and they smiled happily with the gambling ticket.

Qin Lin said again: "However, don't let Mr. Pang know about this matter, let's bet on the winner of Master Tai, it's too disrespectful." ”

"I know," the brothers laughed and agreed in unison.

The housekeeper Liu Quan appeared at the window, the wrinkles on his beaming old face were almost chrysanthemums, and he nodded at Qingdai: "Miss, the third master asked you to go over." ”

"Okay, let's come," Qing Dai said goodbye to Qin Lin, then folded the gambling ticket into Fang Sheng and hid it in his sleeve, and left with Liu Quan.

Li Jianfang? Qin Lin didn't have a good impression of this, he listened to the conversation between Liu Quan and Qing Dai, and vaguely heard the words "Jingwangfu".

Could it be that the thief heart of Coptis Ancestor is not dead? Qin Lin's heart was on fire, he had solved so many murder cases, this was the first time in his life that he had the urge to switch from solving cases to committing crimes.

Just as he was about to hide outside the flower hall to eavesdrop on what was going on, Liu Quan came to the door of the school for the second time, but this time his expression was quite strange, and he looked at Qin Lin meaningfully: "Young Master Qin, Master Tai asked you to go too." ”

Let me go too? Qin Lin was confused and followed Liu Quan to the flower hall.

In addition to Qingdai who was waiting for Qin Lin with a smile, there were only Li Shizhen and Li Jianfang, father and son.

Li Shizhen looked at Qin Lin quite lovingly, while Li Jianfang looked quite uncertain, snorted coldly at him, and then frowned and said to Li Shizhen:

"Father! The prince only said that there was a gift from the Guogong Mansion to be handed over to Qingdai, so why let Qin Lin go too? Isn't this an uninvited guest? ”

Li Shizhen just smiled and stroked his gray beard, and said slowly: "Corporal Lixian is a wonderful person who is excellent in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he likes to make friends with young talents. What's more, the pavilions and pavilions of Jingwangfu at the foot of Qilin Mountain are extremely beautiful, and the scenery is extremely beautiful, so take this opportunity to let him see the world. ”

Go to Jingwangfu to see the scenery and see the world? Li Jianfang couldn't cry or laugh, knowing that there were some things that were not quite right in his father's words, but he couldn't refute it, so he had to stare at Qin Lin with his eyes puffed up, and all his anger was transferred to him.

Qin Lin blinked very innocently, he was completely a good baby, and his heart was constantly thinking about what was going on with that son.

Li Shizhen waved his hand: "Okay, you guys go, the prince treats people extremely kindly, and there is no need to be restrained." ”

When I went to Jingwang's Mansion to see the prince, although the prince was a corporal of Lixian, red tape was still inevitable, Qin Lin and Qingdai both changed their clothes and took a sedan chair to the palace.

This is the first time Qin Lin has sat in a sedan chair, and he feels that the car is slightly undulating and swaying with the footsteps of the sedan chair driver, which is also interesting.

When he arrived at the gate of the palace, he brought in the name card to the eunuch on duty to report, and when he was waiting, Qin Lin had time to ask Qing Dai about the ins and outs.

It turned out that Xu Xinyi, the young lady of Nanjing Wei Guogong, and the son were cousins, and she had come to visit her cousin in Qizhou with her mother half a year ago.

Xu Xinyi returned to Nanjing, bought some gifts that were only available in Jiangnan and gave them to Qingdai, and asked his cousin to hand them over.

Qing Dai was innocent, and he didn't feel anything when he said it, but Qin Lin, a black-bellied man, gently touched his chin, and three words appeared in his heart: yes, black, curtain!

Why didn't the gift given by Xu Xinyi be handed over directly to the medical center, but should be handed over to the prince? The affectionate prince of Jing Wang changed his career to a courier company?

Think about it again, why Li Jianfang has always had that attitude towards me, and why he asked me to "abide by my duty and not covet it"? Qin Lin already knew it at this time.

But Li Shizhen's attitude is very subtle...... Qin Lin smiled evilly, and said in his heart, this old divine doctor is really a wonderful person.

It didn't take long for the little eunuch of the Chengfeng Division to come out with an extremely humble attitude: "The prince said that he should have gone out to greet him, but his illness has not yet recovered, so he has to offend." Please go this way, two. ”

Jingwang Mansion is located at the foot of Qilin Mountain in the north of Qizhou City, covering an extremely vast area, and the gate alone is very magnificent, which seems to be not much more than the gate of the Forbidden City that Qin Lin has seen.

They walked through the small gate on the right - the middle gate of the palace was not opened except for welcoming the Qin and receiving the holy decree, and even if a product came to worship, it could only go to the side door.

After entering the door, only to see the mountain ups and downs, the pavilions and pavilions are located in it, the endless carved beams and painted buildings, the endless magnificence, there are flowers everywhere, the rockery, the pool and the like are extremely exquisite, you can see the ingenuity. Along the way, Qingdai was very happy to explain to Qin Lin, what is the allusion to the inscription "Fubi Bangguo" here, and whose handwriting is the stone tablet carried by the stone turtle there.

The layout of the palace is similar to the Forbidden City and slightly smaller, the layout of the dormitory behind the front hall, and the huge garden on both sides and behind the back, raising cranes, peacocks, sika deer and other rare birds and beasts, all of which are free to walk around, Qingdai is very playful, and it seems that she is not in much of a hurry to see the prince, sometimes teasing the deer, sometimes chasing peacocks, and pulling Qin Lin and her to chase the crane, which provoked the little eunuch who led the way to cover his mouth and laugh.

Seeing that Qing Dai was overjoyed, Qin Lin was a little absent-minded, and urged: "Let's go quickly, it's not good to let the prince wait for a long time." ”

Qingdai was happily feeding the sika deer with grass, and waved her hand nonchalantly: "Let him wait, the prince is very kind, I'm not afraid of him." ”

The little eunuch smiled: "The girl likes this deer, so she often comes to our house to play, or asks the prince to ask for a deer, and our son will never push it back." ”

"The medical hall is much smaller than the palace, I don't have a place to feed the sika deer," Qing Dai frowned, patted the sika deer's head, and reluctantly left.

After turning a few pavilions and pavilions, I finally saw Zhu Youfan, the son of the world, he was a very handsome young man, wearing a snow-white spun silk robe, holding a small white porcelain wine glass, sitting under an extremely tall rhododendron tree, full of rhododendrons in full bloom, flowers falling with the wind, adding to his elegant and dusty state.

Qin Lin was very surprised when he saw it, and took a closer look at the fact that Shizi had an Adam's apple, so that he dispelled some kind of evil suspicion.

The prince Zhu Youfan was extremely humble, and when he saw Qing Dai and Qin Lin coming from a distance, he slowly stood up with the support of the maid: "Is this Brother Qin?" Sure enough, the demeanor is different from ordinary people. Sister of the Li family, if Xin Yi leaves Qizhou, you won't come to the palace to walk around, I haven't seen you for a long time! ”

Qing Dai pursed her lips and stuck out her tongue very casually: "I'm not coming, you have too many troubles and rules here, and it's okay when Sister Xin Yi is here......"

As if thinking of something, Qing Dai stopped talking.

"It's not as comfortable as my sister, speaking of the foolish brother is a noble man, and it's just a caged bird," Zhu Youfan sighed, looking very lonely, and after a while, he looked at Qin Lin carefully, and said quite approvingly: "I heard that Brother Qin and my mother's brother have some small misunderstandings?" At that time, Xiao Ke was still sick and didn't know about it, otherwise he wouldn't let the Li family's sister suffer this grievance. ”

Concubine Huang is not the thousand-year-old concubine of King Jing, and she is not Zhu Youfan's biological mother, according to the patriarchal system, he will not be called Uncle Huang Lianzu.

Listening to the tone, Shizi and Huang Lianzu don't deal with each other, if you want to come to this huge palace, you can't avoid those intrigues!

Qin Lin told him bluntly and told him what had happened, but of course he didn't mention the obscurities.

"Xiao Ke has already persuaded someone Huang," Zhu Youfan frowned, as if he was very reluctant to mention it, "He promised not to disturb the Li family's sister again." ”

Qin Lin nodded, it seems that this prince does not have any sneering habits, no wonder Li Shizhen said that he is an elegant and wonderful person.

It's just that, in addition to the tiredness of recovering from a serious illness, Zhu Youfan's expression is still quite gloomy and depressed?
