Jiang Qiao is gambling with himself. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

- A merchant is a gambler, and he rarely loses.

He gambled on the value of a country's prince, on Ah Jiang's feelings, and on his own ability.

So pinching the written ancient prescription, he asked the imperial doctors, "How many days can the prince last?" ”

"Your Royal Highness has an obsession to support today, and now that the princess has returned to Beijing, I'm afraid it will be ......"

Jiang Qiao hurriedly glanced at Ah Jiang's sleeping beautiful face, twisted his brows and said directly: "Then don't let the prince wake up yet." ”

This method really impacts their consistent view of reverence for the royal family, which can be said to be a great rebellion! The imperial doctors didn't dare to say anything, Pang Wanyue held the prince's hand, and resolutely responded: "Give it to the palace!" ”

Jiang Qiao nodded and was about to leave, but the imperial doctor who wrote the prescription couldn't help but ask: "Your Excellency is proficient in medical skills?" ”

"I don't understand." Jiang Qiao stopped.

The man's face was stunned, and he asked again in a trembling voice: "Can you know what is written in the square?" Where are they produced? After a pause, he gave an example: "For example, this crane top red, we naturally know that crane brains, crane bones, and crane meat can be used in medicine, but this crane top red crown is clearly ......."

It's not that they can't understand the recipe at all, they naturally know that it is taking the road of fighting poison with poison, but the name in it is really unheard of, and they have not found it in countless books, so they can only guess that it must be a highly poisonous thing. Just say that this "crane top red", as the name suggests, should refer to the red crown of the crane top, but the crane top red crown is actually not toxic!

Jiang Qiao actually hasn't read that recipe yet, after all, he can't read, and he won't understand it if he reads it. However, he happened to know that the "crane top red" was actually a red letter stone, which had nothing to do with the crane.

"Don't worry, I have my own way. You try to help me stall for time. ”

He hung Ah Jiang's token on his waist, Jin Huanghuang's was particularly eye-catching, and the guards watched him swagger through the market from afar, and no one came up to interrogate him.

Jiang Qiao walked quickly, he could feel the invisible prying eyes in the dark, and even some "little tails" behind him who didn't know whether they were alive or dead. As he walked outside the palace, he pondered the way back, and it was not until he unconsciously left the palace that he hooked his lips and smiled.

Since you want to do it, why not make it bigger and more beautiful.

Carrying light work under his feet and going straight to the outskirts of the city, Jiang Qiao threw people far away between several ups and downs. There was no time to clean them up now, so he restrained his killing intent and entered the space in a flash.

The tiger brother was still stained with blood on the corner of his mouth, and he was lying on the grass squinting and resting, and when he heard Jiang Qiao's movement, he shook his tail, and then tilted his head and continued to sleep.

Jiang Qiao didn't bother it, pinched the prescription and walked to his room, as if instinctively slapped the thin piece of paper on the futon, and turned around and went to the training room.

Although Wen Shaojie hates it, he is right in one sentence: In this world, some people can't easily use conspiracy and tricks.

Jiang Qiao, as a businessman, especially as a model profiteer, actually doesn't like to be rude. With a turn of the brain, you can solve the problem perfectly, quickly, well, and economically, so why let yourself sweat? But the lessons of his previous life and the goals of this life taught him that wisdom and strength are indispensable.

I don't know exactly what day it was, but when he gradually became comfortable in the dense rain of arrows like flying locusts, this bucket suddenly became larger, and it was a little unbelievably bigger.

Jiang Qiao walked past the stable, where there was a wild horse that appeared automatically, and it took him a lot of effort to close the tail vertebrae before he tamed it, and it took a lot of effort to be able to move freely on horseback. There was no need to practice equestrianism anymore, and he did not stop, passing by the row of arrow targets, and paused slightly. Wearing Yang in 100 steps is naturally powerful, but he is not in a hurry to practice for a while, he continued to walk forward and stopped in front of a puppet man.

This puppet imitates the appearance of a human being, so that the tough wood carvings and splicing are lifelike, and its flexibility is even inferior to Jiang Qiao, a person who has crawled out of the rain of bullets.

His gaze swept over the spear in the opponent's hand, and Jiang Qiao took the lance on the weapon rack on the side. Estimating a safe distance, he looked at the other party's majestic face, and inexplicably felt a little familiar. Too lazy to delve into it, his mind moved slightly, and the puppet's eyes made of wooden beads moved, and boundless standing intent suddenly surged up on his body!

Jiang Qiao has practiced boxing, practiced swords, and can also play with a big sword, and his internal strength is already considerable under the blessing of the futon, he has fought with Wen Shaojie and those assassinated dead soldiers, and he thinks that his strength is still ranked. But the puppet was just a pick, and he actually lay down!

Lie down!

Looking at the sharp spear head against his throat, Jiang Qiao gritted his teeth and shouted "Come again", and continued to be ravaged in various ways.

In the huge martial arts training ground, for a while, only the sound of the human body falling heavily was left, and the "come again" that was gritting teeth more and more.

By the time the long-lost [ding] sound in Jiang Qiao's mind came late, he had already become a bloody man.

A puppet is a puppet after all, and everything is accurate to the point: when Jiang Qiao is weak, he uses his weakest strength to fight Jiang Qiao; When Jiang Qiao improved little by little, he showed his strength little by little. He always grasped the extent that he could suppress Jiang Qiao to the death, and did not let the other party see even the slightest hope.

Mr. Jiang is not a person who will give up easily, and he has never desperately conceded defeat at any time and place because of anyone or anything. Otherwise, he would not have become "Mr. Jiang".

Therefore, the result of becoming more and more courageous and repeatedly defeated and fighting was to completely stimulate the ruthlessness in his bones.

Jiang Qiao used a deadly fighting style, and the puppet couldn't kill him because he was the master of the space, but that didn't mean he couldn't be injured, and even more so he was missing an arm and a broken leg. Jiang Qiao, who has already red eyes and seen blood, if there is no timely prompt, he will become a "one-armed hero" and "a strong man with missing legs"!

Struggling to get up, Jiang Qiao put the lance back in its place, glared fiercely at the puppet who stood back obediently, and staggered towards the exit with bared teeth.

The piece of paper on the futon was no longer there, Jiang Qiao looked at a pile of medicinal herbs, stones or something, thought about it or cautiously did not touch it directly, but ripped off the hem of his clothes and wrapped it carefully.

He sensed the outside world, and there were shadows of trees in the haze in front of him, and he knew that it was night. There is a night ban in the imperial city, and he may not be able to enter at this time, but he is afraid that His Royal Highness the dying prince will not be able to stay up, and it is nothing for Ah Jiang to be angry with him at that time, he is afraid that she will be sad.

The sense of urgency was pressed in his heart, Jiang Qiao didn't dare to delay, and took advantage of the cover of the night to get out of the space.

He crouched in the bushes and listened with bated breath, but no one lurked in his ears except the chirping of insects and the rustle of leaves in the wind.

It seems that those people are not staying here. Jiang Qiao relaxed slightly, took a slow step, and rushed to the city by the starlight. Fortunately, this is near the royal city, and there are no large beasts infested, otherwise this body of blood may not be able to get out.

Carrying the small bag containing medicinal herbs, Jiang Qiao walked step by step with the branches he picked up, I don't know how long he walked, and when he saw the lantern at the gate of the city from a distance, he remembered that Ah Jiang's token was still in the space, and he was reluctant to damage it after he fell down several times and rubbed off the gold paint.

The buzzing of his brain made him a little dizzy, and Jiang Qiao was still thinking about whether he should go in to get the token, when he vaguely saw a figure rushing towards him. He instinctively swung the branch to attack the other party, but unexpectedly, he lost his balance and fell limp.

A pair of hands hugged his waist tightly, and Jiang Qiao still keenly smelled the familiar fragrance in the thick blood.

"Medicine."

As soon as he finished speaking, he fell into darkness, and before he lost consciousness completely, he seemed to hear her crying and calling his name.

Damn, it made her cry again.

Qi Jiang retreated to take Jiang Qiao's guards, and while supporting his weight, she put her ears close to his chest, and when she heard the heartbeat, she bit her lip and swallowed her cry.

All his promises to her, he was serious, and he did it.

"Go back to the palace."

She refused to show even the slightest vulnerability, commanding her servants with the royal majesty of the Emperor. The pair of translucent and innocent apricot eyes finally became completely deep.

Jiang Qiao seemed to be in pain, and moved lightly in her arms, Qi Jiang lowered his eyes and looked at him, and stroked his cheek as if soothingly. Only then can she see a little subtle and deep tenderness in her eyes.
