Chapter 22: Late return over the wall and being caught
Lang'er Deng threw over an eye knife, and was glared back unceremoniously by the young man, "What do you see, what I said is right!" β
"If you hadn't been unreasonable, our young lady wouldn't have been bitten by a snake, it's all your fault!" It was very rare for Lang'er to fail to control his emotions, and he actually gritted his teeth.
"I was kind enough to save you, but you bit Lu Dongbin with good intentions, and your kindness was treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, it's just-"
"Little Seven!"
This time, Yin Mingzhi's tone was obviously harsh, and Yin Xiaoqi immediately stopped his voice, even lowered his head, and his hair tied crookedly at the back of his head hung down messily, covering his vision.
This sickly-looking man could obey the arrogant and energetic young man with a single sentence in his heart, and he was very surprised when he saw it.
Yin Mingzhi closed his eyes for a moment, and when he turned his head again, his face was much gentler, "I'm sorry, let the girl see the joke." β
Shi Qingran shook his head, and quietly pulled Lang'er back with his hand, "It's okay, it's okay, thank you...... Uh, sir came to the rescue. β
After a pause, she suddenly remembered something again, and asked in confusion, "But I have a question, can Mr. answer it for me?" β
Hearing the sound, Lang'er turned his head away and silently made a "Are you crazy" expression.
Yin Mingzhi looked very bland, and happily responded, "Girl, may I ask." β
"The snake that bit me ......" Shi Qingran opened his mouth, and suddenly felt that it was really embarrassing to say this, so he coughed lightly and lowered his voice a little, "Is it really extremely poisonous, if you are bitten, there will be no medicine?" β
"The golden snake is very rare in the Central Plains, but I was not present and could not confirm whether the snake was the most venomous." As he spoke, he glanced at Yin Xiaoqi.
The latter looked up as if he had eyes on the back of his head, "Of course it's like that!" I've seen it with my own eyes! β
After a pause, as if he was unwilling, he couldn't help but add, "If you hadn't met my master, I would have died a long time ago." β
Shi Qingran said gratefully, "Mr. really has the ability to come back to life, thank you sir." β
"I just know a little bit about the art of Qihuang."
Yin Xiaoqi snorted coldly, "That is, my master can rejuvenate with his skill, he is the best pharmacist and doctor in the world!" β
"Smallβ"
"Okay, I know I'm talking more." Yin Xiaoqi interrupted him dejectedly, and very consciously took the initiative to lower his head again and lean against the corner, looking pitiful.
After all, he had experienced it personally, and Shi Qingran knew in his heart that this was true.
I was indeed poisoned, at least judging from the symptoms when I woke up. It doesn't matter whether the sick gentleman in front of him is really the world's first pharmacist, the important thing is that he really saved his life and saved himself from the unknown brink of death back to the world.
As a fellow who had studied some medical skills, she instantly had a little admiration for this gentleman, so she got out of bed and put on her shoes, and bowed to Yin Mingzhi in a regular manner, "Thank you, sir, dare to ask Mr. name, I will definitely come to visit you tomorrow." β
Yin Mingzhi's eyes were still calm without a trace of emotion, and he said in a light tone, "If there is fate, we will meet again, the name is just the name, the girl doesn't need to know." β
Shi Qingran didn't continue to entangle, looking out the window at the sky, it was really not early, so he hurriedly said goodbye, went downstairs with Lang'er, and ran to the door.
She was as light as a swallow, but she was clumsy, and her embroidered shoes made a heavy "thump" sound on the wooden floor.
When he crossed the threshold and went out, Shi Qingran glanced back, only to see a signboard on the door, and the words on the signboard were written boldly and uninhibited-Crescent Inn.
Along the way, Lang'er seemed to be extremely uneasy about her, and after running two streets, he couldn't wait to directly pick her up and tie her to himself.
Shi Qingran comforted her and said, "Don't look at me like that, I'm really fine." β
"Nonsense." Lang'er glared at her sullenly, "You're foaming at the mouth and sobbing, if that kid hadn't said he could save you, I wouldn't-"
In the middle of her words, she suddenly fell silent in annoyance.
Shi Qingran had already guessed the general situation of the matter, but when she looked at the sky, night was coming, and the time was probably already over, so she subconsciously quickened her pace and ran panting, not even asking a word about the details of the matter.
But touching her conscience, she still cares a lot about how ugly she is foaming at the mouth.
When the two returned to the gate of the palace, it was not surprising that the gate was tightly locked, and there was not even a gap between the two vermilions, and the lock was tight.
Shi Qingran sighed, "It's really not humane at all!" β
As she spoke, she bent her fingers to knock on the door, but she paused halfway up, and then couldn't help but think a little funny, her brain was really bitten by a snake, how could she forget the common sense that no one would open the door.
Lang'er was obviously annoyed, and returned to that sparse and indifferent appearance, pulling her along the root of the wall to the backyard, and then stopped at one place, and said in a low voice at Shi Qingran, "Hurry up." β
Lang'er jumped in with her and landed silently on the ground, and the two of them quietly returned to the bedroom door almost on tiptoe.
Shi Qingran breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand to wipe the hot and cold sweat on his forehead, and instructed Lang'er, "Go to the kitchen and see if you can get some food, I'm very hungry at this time." β
With a nod of her head, the slender figure quickly disappeared into the night, and seeing the swiftness and vigor of her footsteps, I am afraid that she is even more hungry than her.
Pushing open the door and stepping in with one foot, she suddenly noticed that something was wrong - usually her diet and daily life are all served by one person, and even the lighting and blowing wax are done by Lang'er herself, and the two of them have not come back today, how can the light have been revealed in this room?
Thinking of this, Shi Qingran's heart froze, and he wanted to run, but a cold voice came from behind him, "Ranran." β
Shi Qingran turned his head in a choked voice.
Song Yuchen pinched a lampshade embroidered with plum blossoms, and slowly covered it around the bright candle flame, and the light in the room became warm. Then he lifted his eyelids and waved his hand at Shi Qingran, "Come here." β
Shi Qingran walked over stubbornly, stopped at a place where the two of them were still enough to fit ten of her, and saluted in a proper manner, "When will the prince come back, it should be very hard to travel all the way, why don't you let the concubine go and get some hot water for the prince to bathe and change clothes, okay-"
