Chapter 45: Look at her like a star
Changing into men's clothes, Chen Muzhi went out from the corner door of Ning Xiangju.
She didn't want anyone to follow, she only hung the Qingcheng short sword around her waist, and her clothes were ordinary blue tunics, and Fujika helped her tie her head before going out. Although he is only dressed as a civilian, Chen Muzhi has a bright and atmospheric appearance, and with men's clothes, he has a particularly heroic feeling.
Shen Huyuan led a horse and was already waiting in the forest outside.
Now that he is Chen Muzhi's person, he often helps run errands for some inconvenient things for Chen Muzhi, which is very effective.
"Thank you, Brother Shen." Chen Muzhi took the reins from his hand and patted the horse's neck again, "Pony, pony, I haven't seen you for a long time, do you still know me?" ”
This horse breed is different from ordinary horses, it is relatively short, suitable for young people who have not grown up to practice riding and archery, and it was also specially found by Chen Yu'an for Chen Muzhi before.
As soon as Chen Muzhi patted it, the pony reached over and rubbed it affectionately against Chen Muzhi.
"Hehe, it hasn't forgotten me."
I thought of Wei Lanzhou, who was crazy about horses, and named his Cangyue good horse "Daisi", hehe, so pretentious.
"Your name is Pony, and that's a simple name. Right, pony? ”
Chen Muzhi rode a pony and had to go on the road.
Men's clothing is really convenient, all the way to the wind, passers-by saw it and praised it: what a handsome boy! Other than that, there was no fuss at all.
After a while, I arrived at Zhengyi Medical Center.
Seeing Chen Muzhi coming in men's clothes, Liu Zhengyi was so shocked that his mouth didn't close for a long time.
"Brother Liu, let's go talk to the back?"
Seeing that Chen Muzhi's little face was tense, when he entered the room, he didn't shout "Xiao Liu" as usual, but "Brother Liu" so solemnly, as if he had something important. Liu Zhengyi handed over the matter to the assistant and apprentice, and took Chen Muzhi to the quiet room at the back of the medical hall.
Chen Muzhi took out a small cloth bag and placed it on the table to unfold it, it was a bag of old and dry medicine residue.
For a moment, Liu Zhengyi was a little confused, not knowing what she meant.
But after a little serious look, Liu Zhengyi recognized it: "This seems to be Miss Muxi's medicine?" ”
Before Chen Muzhi could answer, Liu Zhengyi hurriedly said, "Wait! ”
He picked up another piece of white silk cloth from the side, wrapped his fingers, gently picked at the dregs, picked out a small piece of black things, put it under his nose and sniffed it gently, slowly showing a puzzled look.
"It's not like Miss Muxi's medicine, whose medicine is it?" Liu Zhengyi asked.
"It's my sister's." Chen Muzhi lowered his voice, "It's the residue of the medicine that was boiled on the day of my sister's accident, is there anything unusual?" ”
"I remember every one of your sister's squares clearly. If you're sure that's what she drank that day, then ......"
Chen Muzhi hurriedly said: "I'm sure it's the medicine residue that my sister's personal maid hid afterwards." ”
Liu Zhengyi's expression became grim: "This medicine has been tampered with." These are not the herbs in my recipe. ”
He spread out the white silk cloth, carefully picked out several pieces of slag from the dregs, and placed them on the silk cloth.
Looking at those black things, Chen Muzhi only felt that they all looked similar, and asked cautiously, "Could someone have confused the medicine?" ”
"No, it won't." Liu Zhengyi shook his head slowly, "There is a most important medicinal herb in the middle, called Crudo, which is only produced in the northern Xunzhen country. Crudo's meaning in Xunzhen is a strong mountain god. ”
"It is only produced in the northern Xunzhen Kingdom...... "Chen Muzhi muttered, "So, the ordinary pharmacies of the Great Shun Dynasty can't buy it at all, right?" ”
"Not to mention the ordinary pharmacy, it is the Imperial Pharmacy of the Inner Court, and it is also the Krudo who received the tribute from the envoy of Xun Zhenguo who entered Beijing at the end of last year."
Liu Zhengyi's eyes flashed with anger: "Who is so vicious that he actually gave Miss Muxi Krudo." This medicine is very violent, not to mention that women must not use it, that is, the men of the Dashun Dynasty are not as fierce as the men of Xun Zhenguo, and they must be extremely cautious when using this medicine. If you are not careful, the blood will rush to the brain, and in severe cases, you will even die of brain collapse! ”
Chen Muzhi was dumbfounded, remembering that in the days after the accident, Chen Muxi's spirit really seemed to be much stronger, and he thought that his condition had finally recovered, but he didn't expect it to be Crudo's divine power, urging his life!
"Let me find out this man, and I will let him pay for his life." Chen Muzhi gritted his teeth.
Liu Zhengyi also clenched his fists, pinched until his knuckles turned white, but his eyes were red, as if he was holding back his emotions, and finally said: "I have a hundred ways to make him worse than dead." ”
In the quiet room, a silent fire of rage burns. They are all thinking about Chen Muxi, the talented and indisputable Chen Muxi.
There is no dispute, it is wrong.
A Guogong Mansion without a male owner is a piece of fat meat that no one protects, and the hungry wolf is waiting to pounce, and in just one moment, it will devour Chen Muxi, who has no power to fight back.
Chen Muzhi silently wrapped the remaining medicine residue, wrapping it very slowly, thinking and controlling his emotions.
"Brother Liu, my sister has received a lot of help from you, this matter is very important, and I can't affect you anymore. Koji faced it himself. ”
It seems that Chen Muzhi is saying this, but in fact, it is Chen Muxi in her heart who is saying it.
But Liu Zhengyi in front of her didn't know. He only thought that he was facing the second lady of the Anguo Mansion, the "Muzhi Girl" he watched grow up, a savage armed girl who wanted to avenge her sister.
He was not afraid to say what was in his heart to Chen Muzhi.
"No, no. My life was saved by Grandpa Guo, and now that Grandpa Guo's whereabouts are unknown, I can't repay it, and it is the same to report it to the Guogong Mansion. I, Liu Zhengyi, gave my life for Miss Muxi, and I was willing. ”
"Koyanagi!" Chen Muzhi exclaimed in surprise.
But Liu Zhengyi's face was calm, and even the previous anger disappeared.
"I'm not impulsive. In this world, there are two people who can make me give up my life, one is Grandpa Guo, and the other is Miss Muxi. Whether they are alive or not, I can still give my life to ......"
Speaking of this, he looked at Chen Muzhi's surprised little face.
Liu Zhengyi smiled slightly: "When I finally say it, my heart is open, and I will have no burden after that." ”
In an instant, Chen Muzhi understood.
Liu Zhengyi likes Chen Muxi, he knows that Chen Muxi and Prince Yi's mansion are married, but he still silently guards her, and even can still give up his life for her.
The more this is the case, the more Chen Muzhi can't affect him.
is so affectionate, there is no way to repay it, Chen Muzhi looked at him again, and he admired him a little more than his previous acquaintance.
"I'm happy for my sister. If she is alive, she will be grateful for Brother Liu's affection. ”
Liu Zhengyi looked at Chen Muzhi like looking at his sister: "I look at her like a star, I don't need to be grateful." Grandpa Guo and Miss Mu Xi are no longer there, and I will treat you like them from now on. Your national mansion may not be safe now, be careful, if you can use me Liu Zhengyi, I will never give up. ”
