Chapter 38: Have We Seen It?

Xi Yan asked again: "This fellow acquaintance is a thoughtful, what about our prefect?" Also on the embankment? ”

A little brother next to him pouted and said: "Brother is a foreigner, our rich man is very expensive, how can he do these things, it is already a great mercy to be able to build these grass huts outside the city, so that the past victims have a place to hide from the rain temporarily." ”

As soon as the words fell, an old man next to him scolded: "Three pillars, don't talk nonsense without covering up." ”

The little brother hurriedly shut up and said nothing more.

The woman who treated Zhou Tongzhi's injuries had already straightened up, Zhou Tongzhi's legs were fixed with a few branches tied with cloth strips, the red and swollen places had been medicated, and the top was also bandaged with cloth, and the woman said to the people carrying the stretcher: "I have already picked up Lord Zhou's broken bones, but there are still some broken bones in it, you can carry him to a doctor to dispose of it, and the medicine on the leg is best not to see water within three days." She looked at the heavy rain outside, couldn't help but sigh softly, and said, "This medicine is the best treatment for bone injuries, if it is washed away by the rain, it will be wasted." ”

Wei Peng suddenly spoke up and said, "Wumo, go and call a car to come over and send Master Zhou back to the mansion to recuperate." ”

Zhou Tongzhi noticed Wei Peng, when Wei Peng and others came to the mansion, he was still on the embankment and didn't know him, so he arched his hand and said: "Zhou thank you Gongzi for your help, please ask Gongzi's surname, so that Zhou can remember ......" He suddenly thought that the woman was the benefactor who helped him treat his legs, and said to the master and servant: "Thank you girl for your help, I don't know if I can tell the girl which family is the daughter, and Zhou can also thank the two." ”

Wei Peng didn't speak, and the masked woman said lightly: "My surname is Helan, not from your Suzhou, just passing by, I heard that the adult is a man who loves the people like a son, and I saw Lord Zhou's high righteousness, so I helped." It's a pity that adults are pedantic. ”

Zhou Tongzhi was slightly stunned, Wei Peng also glanced at the girl sideways, wondering why she said this, the surrounding people and the messenger who followed Zhou Tongzhi had already reprimanded: "This girl, you let the servant treat our adults, you can't say this about our adults!" ”

"How can this girl say that? Adults have always loved the people like children, how can they be pedantic! ”

The masked woman was not annoyed, and knew to Zhou Tong: "My lord, do you know that your injuries are now at least three months in bed?" As the saying goes, if you break your muscles and bones for a hundred days, you can't get off the ground in these 100 days, and you can't do what you want to do to protect the embankment and prevent floods. Maybe the little woman is worried, there are still prefects and other adults in this Suzhou capital, but if these people are useful, why bother to work with the governor inside and outside? You only think about saving people, but because of small losses, the gains outweigh the losses. Even if that person is smashed, it may not hurt his life, if your leg is not good to grow, I am afraid that I will be disabled, and it will also hinder the official career of adults. ”

Although the court does not want to pick a handsome person, if he has a disability, his road to promotion will stop here.

Wei Peng's heart moved, this girl said clearly, and every sentence was reasonable, he remembered what King Xuan taught him when he was a child: for officials and politicians, you can't be too benevolent and clear, nor too arbitrary and ruthless, if the water is clear, there is no fish, and if you are observing, there is no disciple, and the ruler is short, the inch is long, everything has two sides, weigh the pros and cons and seek a balance from it, it is the best. Doesn't this girl just say that Zhou Tongzhi was too merciful and failed to weigh the pros and cons?

Zhou Tongzhi was slightly stunned, looking at this girl's eyes a little deep, he sighed deeply: "What the girl taught is that Zhou has been taught." ”

Miss Helan said lightly: "Lord Zhou is too modest. Warm the cup, leave some ointment for the adults, let's hurry. ”

The girl who treated Zhou Tongzhi's injury took out a small porcelain bottle from the pocket under her coat, handed it to him, and said: "Lord Zhou, my girl respects you as a good official, so I am allowed to help. ”

Those people don't know, Wei Peng, Xi Yan and Zhou Tongzhi and other people in the official palace have heard of it, and the legend is that this ointment is a miracle medicine for renewing bones, even if the injured person's bones are broken into slag, as long as the person who performs the operation has the ability to splice the broken bones completely, those broken bones can also grow again. It's really a rare good medicine.

Zhou Tongzhi sat on the ground and couldn't get up, so he had to bow his hand again and said: "Don't thank you for your kindness, Zhou knows that he can't be rewarded for such a good medicine, if the girl has any drive, she should die." ”

Wei Peng waved his hand and said, "Lord Zhou is too worried. Miss Helan, I paid for Master Zhou's consultation for him, you just have to make the price. ”

Miss Helan sneered and said: "I didn't expect that Your Excellency is also a stupid, blind to this good skin, you don't know if you can sweep the snow on your own roof, and you still have the heart to care about the frost on other people's tiles, just now my girl has already said the price, for the sake of the people surnamed Zhou, I gave this ointment for free, as long as it is not a villain who is different from the outside, otherwise it will be doubled." Lord Zhou, the little woman will give you a reminder, but with the drive, don't say anything casually, what if I'm not a good person? Warm the cup, moisten the tea, let's go. ”

As he spoke, he greeted the two maids and the two attendants, got out of the hut, turned over his horse, and prepared to leave. Zhou Tongzhi was stunned, what if I wasn't a good person? There is a warning in this statement.

Wei Peng's heart moved, this girl had something to say, she was saying that she was nosy. Seeing that they were leaving, he had already rushed over with an arrow step, stopped in front of the girl's horse, and said, "Please forgive me for being abrupt, who is the girl?" ”

The two guards had already ridden their horses to block him, and Miss Helan waved her hand to signal them to retreat, then leaned down immediately and whispered in his ear: "Xuan Shizi had better take care of himself first, your two cousins are the biggest targets of today, and it is important that your pond fish is not affected." ”

Wei Peng's body was shocked, and his eyes were full of surprise, what is the origin of this girl? She knows everything! He blurted out, "Who the hell are you?" Have we met? ”

Miss Helan was veiled on her face, and she couldn't see her expression, only her round apricot eyes were bent, and there was a smile in her eyes, she still lowered her voice and said, "Do you want us to meet?" She even winked at him, and said a little slyly: "My sister is very busy, and now I have to hurry, if Xuan Shizi wants to see me, I have to queue up to make an appointment." ”
