Chapter 6
The two soldiers who were grabbing my arm immediately stopped and looked back at Zhou Dutou in surprise. , the latest chapter access: Π¨Π¨Π¨.79xs.Π‘ΠΎΠ .
The prefect asked rather unhappily: "What, Zhou Dutou, do you want to protect her?" β
Zhou Dutou ignored him, walked up to me excitedly, and handed me the things in his hand: "Girl, where did this thing come from?" β
I knew I had lost something, but I didn't pay attention, and I didn't carry anything of value on me, most of them were bottles and cans of 'medicine', which didn't matter.
Now that I heard him say it, I looked closely, and it turned out to be the 'jade' pendant that I gave when I returned to Beijing.
I don't know what kind of 'jade' it was carved from, and it suddenly fell on the blue brick floor, and it was intact.
Coldly remembered the joke of Liang Ci: "If someone dares to embarrass you along the way, you can rely on this 'jade' Pesayo, and I will bear it for you if something happens." β
I originally thought he was just a joke, but although he was arrogant, he never had a word, since he promised me so much, he must not be simple in his family background, otherwise how could he be so familiar with the mad stone?
Now looking at Zhou Dutou's reaction, the hand holding the 'jade' pendant can't stop trembling a little, he must know this 'jade' pendant, and he can't help but be happy, and his hope rises again: "This is a gift from my friend." β
"Then do you know the name of this 'jade' pendant?"
"Qi 'jade', the Qi of the Qilin." I raised my chin slightly, and I felt a little confident in my heart, maybe this was the waist card in their six 'doors', so this one was recognized.
Du Tou lowered his head and glanced at Brother Lin on the ground suspiciously: "Then do you know the identity of your friend?" β
I was a little hesitant and didn't know what to answer. Because I really don't know the true identity of Liang Ci, I just guess that the origin should be not small, although I am in the six 'doors', but there must be some background at home.
I hesitated and asked, "If the girl finds it inconvenient to reveal the 'dew', then I take the liberty of asking a few questions, you just need to nod or shake your head, what does the girl think?" β
I could see that Zhou Dutou had no malicious intentions, so I nodded.
"This friend of yours is from Beijing?"
I nodded.
"High in the temple?"
I hesitated, then nodded.
"Is he a scholar with the power of a 'chicken' untied?"
I shook my head.
"Twenty or thirty years old, Wen Taowu is a talent?"
I nodded without thinking.
"One last question," Zhou Dutou stretched out his head and pointed at Brother Lin on the ground: "This friend you are talking about is him?" β
I looked at Brother Lin, who was still pale and unconscious, and knew that Zhou Dutou didn't know the cold words at all, and he should have just heard of it, so he mistakenly thought that Brother Lin was the owner of the 'jade' pendant.
My mind turned, weighing the pros and cons, and then nodded hesitantly.
The prefect was puzzled when he heard our conversation, and finally shouted impatiently to his soldiers: "What are you doing in a daze, don't hurry up and tie me up!" β
Zhou Dutou waved his hand, stopped the few soldiers who were eager to try, walked towards the prefect, handed him the 'jade' pendant in his hand, and whispered in a low voice.
"Zhou Dutou, you have to watch carefully, this is not child's play!"
Zhou Dutou nodded affirmatively: "This Qi 'jade' contains brilliance, the tentacles are warm, and the quality of 'jade' is rare in the world, and it cannot be faked." Besides, didn't you also receive news from Beijing some time ago, saying that this master Weifu went south to raise grain and rice for disaster relief, and you also specially told us to be careful to maintain law and order in the city. β
The prefect's disdainful expression gradually changed, and he handed the 'jade' pendant in his hand into the shadow of the lamp, and looked at it over and over. At first, I was a little incredulous, but finally glanced at me, respectfully walked closer, and returned the unicorn 'jade' in my hand to me: "It's the villain who has eyes and doesn't know the gold-inlaid 'jade', misunderstood the young lady, and asked the young lady to forgive the sin." β
I was a little surprised by his sudden change of attitude, but I stabilized my mind, thinking that it was the effect of Qi 'Jade', and pretended to say: "It's good that you know, you don't need me to say more, right?" β
"Naturally, naturally," the prefect nodded and said, "Is this son on the ground really ......?" β
I thought about Brother Lin's current physical condition, and I didn't explain it at the moment, and said with an unfathomable look: "This matter is confidential, don't say more, why don't you hurry up and find a place for him to recuperate?" β
The prefect hurriedly greeted the people behind him, found a cabooned carriage nearby, and carefully carried Brother Lin into the carriage: "The post station is simple, can you two live in my house temporarily?" The subordinates are also attentive. β
Looking at his disgusting face, I really didn't want to go, but my toss was tantamount to 'revealing' my whereabouts, and it was the safest to live in the prefect's mansion. Therefore, he could only nod helplessly: "This is very good, but I am a little worried that the thief will not give up, and I ask the adults to strengthen their precautions." β
The prefect promised again and again, and instructed Zhou Dutou to arrange the guards in the palace and take the first step. Then he gave me the sedan chair and followed the carriage himself.
The carriage carriage was narrow, with only a thin layer of mattress on it, which was not as spacious and comfortable as the Su family's carriage, and could not accommodate a second person. I myself was so tired that I didn't want to move, so I was unceremonious, bowed down into the sedan chair, closed my eyes and recuperated, and secretly thought about how to deal with it next. Is it wrong to make a mistake and let Brother Lin continue to pretend to be the owner of this 'jade' pendant, or explain it to them clearly?
When I opened the sedan curtain, the prefect flattered me with a sallow face, sneered at me, followed the sedan chair, and ran out of breath, clearly the person who saw the wind and steered the rudder.
If I confess to him that this 'jade' pendant is just a temporary gift from someone else, and it has nothing to do with Brother Lin, will he still take in Brother Lin to recuperate from his injuries, and treat us with such sincerity and fear? 'Touching' and 'touching' himself is penniless, and I can't make up my mind for a while.
The prefect of Xuzhou is not as majestic as the Yangzhou prefect's 'door', and it is a little shabby in comparison, but compared with other houses in Xuzhou, it is a group of 'chickens'.
The prefect waved his hand away and drove away the aunts who heard the news and greeted the obsessive and coquettish aunts, and arranged me and Brother Lin in the main guest room of the mansion, which was extremely courteous.
Naturally, I was unceremonious, after treating Brother Lin's wound, I brought a pen and paper, and instructed him to send his subordinates to grab the 'medicine' according to the prescription, and after frying it, I gave it to Brother Lin, and the shelf was full.
The prefect has been waiting outside the 'door', and he is courteous and invites his subordinates to serve tea and prepare meals. Seeing that I was embarrassed, I called an aunt in the house, and according to my figure, I bought a new skirt.
Seeing that Brother Lin's mood is obviously much better, and he is no longer hot. I washed and changed my clothes with confidence, and asked Zhou Dutou to go to the nearby state capital early tomorrow morning to inquire about the news of Qingqing and his party.
My side is full of dangers, I naturally don't worry about 'handing' Brother Lin to other people's care, and I don't care about the difference between men and women, so I found someone to bring a soft collapse and put it next to Brother Lin's 'bed', and as soon as I closed my eyes, I fell asleep.
During the day, I was frightened, and even my dreams were not pure, and there was always a group of men in black who surrounded me shouting and shouting to kill, and I ran in all directions in terror, but my 'legs' were like lead, and it was extremely difficult to move. Suddenly, I remembered that Brother Lin was still hidden in the bushes by me, worried that he was in danger, so I exclaimed with all my strength: "Brother Lin, Brother Lin, run." β
"Qingwu, don't be afraid, I'm here."
It feels like a feather 'feather' is gently 'touching' my face, soft and warm, and the whole person is bathed in the warm 'spring' wind, and the peach forest in my heart is blooming.
I reluctantly opened my eyes, Brother Lin had already woken up, squatting in front of my soft collapse, holding one of my hands, and a pair of clear eyes were 'waves' in the candle shadow.
"Qingwu, I'm sorry, I didn't protect you, but I dragged you down and made you suffer." Brother Lin blamed himself.
Originally, Brother Lin's injury was provoked because of my 'sex', if I hadn't listened to his advice and stayed away from the guards in the house, there would have been no such incidents. Now, listening to him, I feel quite guilty.
"Brother Lin, you were originally injured and poisoned just to save me, and you suffered so much, you don't blame me, why do you still say that?"
Brother Lin stretched out his finger and put it on my 'lips': "Shh, Qingwu, although I am in a 'poisoned coma', my hands and feet are stiff, and I can't move, but occasionally I am awake, I can hear the sounds around me clearly, and I also know what you have done for me." β
My face couldn't help but get hot: "But I really didn't do anything, and I almost 'made' it self-defeating." β
Brother Lin's hair was a little messy, and a strand of hair hung down, and it hung naughtily on the corner of his mouth. He looked at me and smiled softly, and the strand of hair also had a smile arc:
"I woke up, I was gone, and I was scared. Later, I found the mark you left nearby, and followed the direction all the way to find it, only to realize that you were deliberately trying to distract those men in black.
Fool, why are you so bold and risking your life, you should have shouted for help. Otherwise, if I were one step late, wouldn't I regret it for the rest of my life? β
"I made a mark just because I was afraid that there would be no road in the forest, and if I 'lost' my way and couldn't find you, it would be miserable. Unexpectedly, he saved his life. β
I joked to myself. I tried to sit up, only to find that my whole body was sore, as if I had fallen apart, and I couldn't help frowning, Brother Lin hurriedly reached out to help, but he didn't want to involve the wound on his shoulder, his arm stiffened, and we both laughed.
I told Brother Lin about the current situation, and took out the piece of unicorn 'jade' to show him: "Now this prefect misunderstands that you are the owner of this 'jade' pendant, so he is very attentive to us. I think we're going to be wrong. β
Brother Lin took the 'jade' pendant, squinted his eyes and looked at it carefully for a long time before he said to himself: "It turned out to be him, no wonder a legendary figure like the old man Tianyuan would take him as an apprentice." β
"What do you mean? What is his identity, and why does this prefect sell his affection like this? With just a piece of 'jade' pendant, he is sincerely afraid of me, is his family very powerful in the imperial court? I asked, confused.
"It turns out that his name is Liangci," Brother Lin laughed in a low voice, as if talking to himself: "Gu Liangci? β
"You've heard of him?"
Brother Lin shook his head: "I'm not sure, it's just a guess, after all, he and the legend are like two people." β
Then he 'handed over' the 'jade' pendant to me: "Has he never told you about his identity?" β
I nodded: "I never asked, I only knew that he was the legendary Sword Venerable Shura." β
"I'm not so sure, when everything arrives in the capital, you will naturally understand. If the prefect asks for an inquiry, and I resist it, you can pretend that you don't know. β
I saw that Brother Lin didn't want to say it, so I didn't want to ask.
