Chapter 116: Continuing Life
Seeing that the bride with a red hijab was about to fall, Xu Liang stepped forward, hugged his waist, lifted the hijab and looked at it, and his heart tightened.
Under the hijab, Feng Suqin's brows were tightly locked, her face was pale, and there was no trace of blood.
Mrs. Feng stood up and saw her, and cried out, "Qin'er, what's wrong?" ”
Xu Liang picked it up and left, and shouted at Xu Qing, who came over: "Go and ask for a doctor!" ”
At this time, the surrounding guests who were closer had already discovered the abnormality, stopped applause, and watched in astonishment as the groom and the bride walked through the red carpet, and hurriedly ran to the backyard, followed by the old lady wiping her tears, and the maids of the Xu Mansion ran over one after another, and followed the groom inside. Those who were far away from the main seat were still watching inexplicably, and when they asked the people around them, they all opened their mouths in shock, and there were already guests at the next few tables who had left their seats and gathered around in the direction of the red carpet, wanting to see what was going on, but in the process, they didn't know how to knock over a few plates and bowls, and fell to the ground, with a crisp cracking sound.
The screams of the maid ring woman, the gradual discussion of the guests, the scene was chaotic for a while.
As the host, Ge Qiao, the deputy patrol envoy, stood in the middle of the stage and shouted to maintain order, shouting loudly, but the sound of the guests' inquiries and discussions still did not stop.
"Quiet!"
Suddenly, a loud roar came from the direction of the gate, and the buzzing was paused, and when it was clear that it was a young man who spoke out, some guests vaguely remembered that it was the elder of the groom's family who had sat with the old lady before, but many more people did not know each other. As a result, the effect of this roar only lasted for half a minute.
Seeing this, Xu Qing walked across the red carpet and stood with Ge Qiao, who was already shouting hoarsely, and asked anxiously: "Lord Ge, this is too messy, I will ask someone to bring the troops over?" ”
"Never!" Ge Qiao was startled, and hurriedly stopped: "Now all the guests present are the distinguished guests invited by Lord Xu, what is the matter with you bringing the troops?" Repression? Wouldn't it be a crime to sin the celebrities of the entire Jianchang County! ”
"That'...... So what to do? "Xu Qing is young and has no experience in dealing with this matter.
"You go and invite Lord Xu to come over," Ge Qiao commanded, "Here, I'll go talk to Lord Lu and let him get up and say a few words." ”
Lu Zhixian and Jiang Zhubo sat at the main table, and saw the whole process of the incident clearly from beginning to end, but for some reason, Lu Zhixian sat steadily, whispering along with other people's discussions, and occasionally chatting with Jiang Zhushu.
Ge Qiao walked over, Lu Zhixian raised his head, slightly surprised, and asked, "Old Ge, this, what's wrong with this bride?" Lord Xu didn't marry a sick man, right? ”
Ge Qiao frowned, leaned down to explain, and said what he meant to invite him out to appease the guests, Lu Zhixian listened, nodded in a deep voice, got up, neatly dressed his robe, raised his hands and put them down, pressed down, cleared his throat and said loudly: "Everyone, everyone...... Ladies and gentlemen! ”
"Everyone, be quiet! This official is Lu Chengyuan of Jianchang Zhi County! This official has something to say......"
Xu Liang carried Feng Suqin all the way into the newly furnished new house, carefully put Feng Suqin on the bed, and saw that Feng Suqin was still wearing gorgeous clothes, so he asked Chun'er and others to change into soft clothes for her, and then went to see, but Feng Suqin pursed her mouth, her face was blue, and her eyes were closed, but she was unconscious.
Old Madam Feng half-squatted in front of the bed, watching, and shedding tears. Yahuan Chun'er asked in a low voice, "Young Master, Sister Feng's head is very cold, do you want to cover it with a hot towel?" ”
"It's okay," Xu Liang nodded, "You go and pour some warm water and feed Suqin." Don't feed the medicine just yet, wait until the doctor comes. ”
Mrs. Feng got up and walked out, "I'll go get hot water for Qin'er." ”
Xu Liang stopped her and said, "Feng Fu...... Mother, you just watch here, just let the next person do these things. The front yard is probably still messy, so I'll have to check it out. ”
Mrs. Feng nodded, looked at Xu Liang, thought of the words he had just changed, and turned to Feng Suqin, who was lying down, and tears fell again.
Xu Liang ran into Xu Qing who rushed in when he went out, and the two of them hurriedly walked towards the front yard together.
The front yard was already a lot quieter, and when Xu Liang entered, he could hear the voice of Shoulu Zhixian: "What happened, the official is also very curious, and I also want to know, don't be suspicious and talk about it first, after a while, Lord Xu will come by himself, and he will definitely give you a satisfactory answer, hey, Lord Xu is here!" ”
Everyone followed the sound, and sure enough, when they saw Xu Liang walking in, their eyes focused on Xu Liang, and someone shouted: "Lord Xu, what's the situation with the new lady?" ”
"Yes, Lord Xu, what the hell is going on?"
"Isn't this day wrong, rushing away?"
……
Xu Liang walked in front of Lu Zhixian with a calm face, thanked Lu Zhixian first, and then turned to the guests, and said in a heavy tone: "Everyone, I'm very sorry, the inner person suddenly felt unwell, and he has gone back to the house to rest, so that the big guy can laugh." In a moment, I will toast to you and make amends. ”
Since the main owner has already said this, not to mention that they are still the second-in-command of Jianchang County, everyone gradually settled down, Xu Liang asked people to clean the yard again, replace them with new dishes and chopsticks, and reopen the table. Toast from table to table.
However, it must have happened in this case, and the guests saw that Xu Liang's feelings were not high, and they knew that this kind of thing had happened, and Lord Xu was not happy, and the wedding banquet was dispersed early.
When Lu Zhixian left, he asked Xu Liang in a concerned tone, "Is the new lady okay?" After receiving a positive answer, he said generously: "Brother Xu is newly married Yan'er, and the new lady is not in good health, so you don't have to rush to the yamen, the county will give you a few days off, and then come to the county yamen when you are well." ”
Xu Liang was busy thanking him again.
Lu Zhixian thought of something again, and said with a smile: "Well, the official almost forgot, the newly arrived Jianchang Dian Shi Qin Feng has already arrived, I heard that he was also a person in the middle of last year like you, hey, I heard that he is also from Ji'an Mansion, this is a coincidence, you two fellow villagers can be close and close!" ”
Xu Liang was stunned, he didn't expect Qin Feng to actually become the history of Jianchang, didn't he want to order Jinshi?
After Lu Zhixian was sent away, the doctor who treated Feng Suqin also arrived, and it was Mr. Zhang from the Chengdong Pharmacy who had prescribed prescriptions for Feng Suqin before.
Mr. Zhang made a diagnosis, pulled Xu Liang aside, and said worriedly: "Lord Xu, Miss Feng's body was originally weak, and she had accumulated old loads, so she could take care of herself, but she must have blown a lot of cold wind and humidity recently, which made it worse, and the situation was very bad." ”
Xu Liang's heart tightened, and he asked nervously, "Mr. Zhang, what should I do?" ”
Mr. Zhang said: "The prescription prescribed before is no longer effective, and the old man prescribes a new prescription, and the adults take the medicine according to the prescription." ”
After that, Mr. Zhang sat down, took the pen and ink, wrote down a prescription, dried the ink, and handed it to Xu Liang.
Xu Liang saw it, handed it to the iron head waiting on the side, and asked him to hurry up and catch the medicine. asked Mr. Zhang again: "Old man, according to your old method, how long will it take for the insiders to see each other?" ”
Mr. Zhang glanced at him and said in a heavy tone: "Master Xu, the old man's new recipe is no longer a cure, but a continuation of life...... Adults should prepare in advance. With that, Mr. Zhang got up and bowed his hand to the stunned Xu Liang: "The old man has taken his leave." ”
It was like a thunderbolt that blew Xu Liang up. Not to cure the disease, but to prolong life? Prepare early...... What to prepare? Xu Liang was stunned for a long time, and then turned his head to see that Mr. Zhang had already left. Xu Liang shouted: "Keep Mr. Zhang!" After speaking, he rushed out of the house, stopped Mr. Zhang at the door of Xu's mansion, and finally made the old gentleman promise to stay in Xu's mansion and treat him at any time.
After settling Mr. Zhang, Xu Liang came to the front yard, more than a dozen subordinates were cleaning the venue, and the officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion were also helping, Ge Qiao, Huang Ziren, Xu Qing and others sat around a table, chatting and gossiping.
After sitting for a while, Ge Qiao looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.
Xu Liang said: "Old Ge has something to say. ”
Ge Qiao exchanged glances with the patrol camp generals and said, "My lord, it was not appropriate to say this today, but the subordinates thought that this matter had to be said. ”
"What's the matter?" Xu Liangqi said.
"That's what happened." Ge Qiao said: "Our patrol battalion was originally only after the adults came, and I remember that the official document also said that the chief secretary of Jianchang also served as the patrol battalion patrol envoy to strengthen Jianchang's patrol force." At that time, as the chief secretary of Jianchang, he naturally had no worries, but now that the lord was promoted to Jianchang County, the post of chief secretary was changed to Jiang Zhunan, and his subordinates were worried that the position of the patrol envoy would also be changed. ”
When Xu Liang heard this, he was secretly shocked, for the sake of Feng Suqin's matter for a while, he had not noticed this change, and then he had to be reminded by Ge Qiao to understand the stakes. Raising his eyes and seeing that the generals of the patrol battalion were staring at him, waiting for him to make up his mind, Xu Liang groaned and said: "What Elder Ge said may not be impossible, but the original establishment of this patrol battalion was directly issued by the Jiujiang Branch Guarding Dao Yamen, and it is not so easy to change people." ”
Ge Qiao shook his head and said: "My lord, having said that, but don't forget, our patrol battalion is under the management of Jianchang County and Nankang Mansion, and Lord Sun of Nankang Prefecture has no good impression of us. My lord, let's plan ahead. ”
"Yes, big brother," Huang Ziren nodded and said: "In the past, Lu Chengyuan didn't dare to touch you, that's because there was still a Wang Xian above, but now this old boy is the county governor of Jianchang, covering the sky with one hand, and he is so insidious, I bet that he will definitely help Jiang Zhunan to take the throne." What do we do then? ”
The others followed suit.
Xu Liang thought about it, came up with a plan, and surrounded a few people to explain like this. The congregation will hear with joy on their faces and take their leave.
