Chapter 257: The Secret of Xu Cheng's Writing
Because of Xu Chu's medical skills, as well as the so-called first-aid method of resurrecting the dead, Aunt Chu and several people were stunned. A well-known doctor in the capital, as well as a leader in the Tai Hospital, but in order to study the medical skills she sent, he went to the countryside every day to find various incurable diseases.
But I heard that they really made a name for themselves. Several times he rescued a person who had fallen into the water and suffocated, and also healed a person who was cold and cold. Even, some guards spread that some of them cured many people with tuberculosis according to the methods listed by Xu Chu, and some patients who had been suffering from thirst quenching disease all year round gradually improved.
It was this test that made them more and more convinced of Xu Chu. If it weren't for what Xiao Qinglang said to Xu Chu that he was only interested in the autopsy, I was afraid that they would all snatch Xu Chu over to discuss it together.
The lights in the house have been changed, and although the courtyard is as bright as day, it is also a little lonely at night. Xiao Qinglang and Xu Chu walked side by side, moving slowly in the sparse and shallow oblique shadow.
Along the way, Xu Chu smelled the usual green bamboo smell of the people around him, and felt a little comfortable. Before last September, she never imagined that one day she would walk with the legendary cold-faced and upright King Jing'an. I never thought that I would really find a lover, not despised by her profession, not despised by her ambitions, and even willing to shelter her from the wind and rain.
For the first time, she was glad that he was the prince, that he was born with different powers, and that he had a heart that had been trained for prison. Probably, it is because of the same ambition that the relationship between the two will be pure.
The night breeze of spring is already slightly warm, and the palace lamps under the eaves of the promenade are swaying, elongating the figures of the two through the carved beams and columns, and finally overlapping together.
Suddenly, Xu Chu couldn't help but bend the corners of his eyes and sneer. The corners of Xiao Qinglang's mouth also floated with a shallow smile, he took the hands of the two of them under the wide sleeves, and asked, "But what funny things do you think of again?" β
Accustomed to the casualness with Xu Chu, Xiao Qinglang no longer wanted to go back to the past, and lived that kind of innocent and boring life. He was willing to laugh with her, and he was willing to be as warm as he was now, even if he would be teased by her, it would be better than being full of desolation.
Xu Chu squinted at him and talked about an incident last winter with great interest.
"That time in the Yamen of Yunan County, you walked in front, and I walked behind you with Mingzhu. Somehow, I unconsciously walked after the footprints you left in the snow. At that time, if Mingzhu hadn't suddenly spoken, I was afraid that I wouldn't have noticed it myself. Xu Chu pursed his lips, suddenly looked at him and said with a light smile, "Do you remember the scene at that time?" β
Xiao Qinglang was slightly stunned, and then his indifferent eyes were also filled with extremely soft warmth, he nodded and said: "Naturally remember, at that time, I also thought that you probably thought that walking in my footsteps would be more steady." β
The soft light of the surging palace lamp made the two look at each other and smile.
After a long time, the two of them moved again, and this time, Xiao Qinglang mentioned Xu Cheng's work again.
"I told you before that Xu Yanzuo's identity is different, and your tastes are more and more habitual. Therefore, I asked people to sort out the list of people who disappeared in the capital and Shu 20 years ago. His voice was low, with the power to soothe people's hearts, so that Xu Chu was no longer as at a loss as he was when he first heard this.
He held her hand tightly, not allowing her to pull out or dodge. Just looked at her, and said softly word by word: "I suspect that he is the Imperial Doctor Sun who was blocked by bandits twenty years ago, and then died without seeing his body." β
After a pause, he sighed and said, "And before the accident, although Imperial Doctor Sun had a fiancΓ©e, he didn't have time to get married. β
In other words, it is impossible for him to have a daughter as big as Xu Chu.
"Could it be, could it be that the prince made a mistake? My dad wasn't a doctor, maybe just an ordinary person with a hard time? Her voice was harsh, and she asked in a quiet night.
There was silence all around, and the lights rippled slightly, shattering the warmth and softness under the corridor. Quietly, Xiao Qinglang only looked at her with complicated eyes, and without more words, he also expressed his meaning very clearly.
Since he said it, he must have already investigated it. At the beginning, it was out of selfishness that he used all the movable people to find Xu Chuzuo's whereabouts, and in order to explore the mystery of Xu Chuzuo's disappearance, he inevitably had to go deeper.
However, he didn't expect to get a conclusion that even he was surprised by the shock.
Xu Chu looked up in astonishment, and suddenly didn't know what expression to have. She was indeed shocked, but more often than not, she was confused.
She looked at Xiao Qinglang deeply, bit her lip and said, "That...... Then I'm ......"
Who am I?
She traveled to the Great Zhou Dynasty, and she was already as frightened as a rootless duckweed. However, her father gave her a home, which gave her stability, and allowed her to smoothly integrate into this strange era.
Xu Chuyou remembered that when she was a child, her father clumsily helped her comb her sideburns. Although she is already a reincarnated person, she cannot be as delicate and cute as a little girl, and even a little old-fashioned and indifferent among children. However, Daddy never cared, and often felt that her temperament was caused by his being a servant.
Later, she grew older and got used to the life after the time-travel. Naturally, I sincerely accepted my father who really cherished him. She even felt that in her life, she was probably dependent on her father.
Therefore, after she showed a little ability to perform an autopsy, she would often help to perform the autopsy in the name of her father to collect the corpse. Or, directly help people investigate the case, in short, she is trying her best to earn some rewards.
Even before her father's disappearance, when she helped Xiao Qinglang investigate the murder case of the Five Elements Evil Ghost, she wanted Xiao Qinglang to fulfill the condition of helping her father to ask the imperial doctor for treatment.
It can be said that for a long time, she has been thinking about how to make life more smooth on the basis of making a living. And when her father is old, she can also have enough money for her father to live for his old age......
The warmth of the past was surging in his heart, and he couldn't find an outlet, which made Xu Chu's whole person a little trance.
There was a faint pain in her chest, and she could only look at Xiao Qinglang blankly, hoping that he could give her an answer.
Xiao Qinglang saw that her face was pale and her heart ached, but she didn't hide it anymore. There are some things that she will have to find out sooner or later. After the Jinzhou City case is over, he will inevitably return to Beijing to resume his life, and no one will question her background and background.
Regardless of the pressure and attacks at that time, it is just that if it is exposed in public under unguarded circumstances, these things that Xu Cheng has tried his best to hide. I'm afraid that for Xiao Chu, it will be a great blow.
Just like now, even if she has done the foreshadowing before, it will still make her show such a vulnerable and helpless look.
He sighed softly, pulled the person into his arms, and said in a deep voice: "If you want to track it down, I will naturally accompany you." But if you don't want to track it down, I'll just treat it as if it never existed, and I'll take care of everything in the future. β
"Xu Cheng treats you like a daughter, who is he, and what does it matter? Left and right are extremely important people in your life. β
Xiao Qinglang didn't want Xu Chu to be involved in that old matter, so he first put himself in a difficult situation. Therefore, when she saw that she couldn't think about it, she comforted: "Besides, you and I will never be really alone." β
His voice was shallow, but very resolute, which made Xu Chu's heart instantly clear.
She looked at him in a daze, and after a long time, she pursed her lips and said weakly: "It's me who is stunned." β
Xiao Qinglang saw that she had eased her mind, so he let go of the person slightly, and said in a low voice: "No matter what your identity is, it is always Xiao Chu." β
Xu Chu only thought that his words were to reassure himself, but he didn't know that his words had not been said at all. What he wants to say is that no matter where you come from, what kind of opportunity you have to take Xu Chu's body, as long as it is you.
The two looked at each other silently, until the breeze ruffled Xu Chu's hair, which made her wake up.
Xiao Qinglang stared at her, stretched out his hand to straighten her hair behind her ears, and said slowly: "I'll send you back, so that you can rest for a few days." I think if you drill the horns of the bull for this, Xu Yanzuo will definitely be sad. β
She slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and silently wiped away the tears on her face by Xiao Qinglang. His hands were always warm, and so were the moments, the thin calluses on the belly of his fingers slowly leaving a trail on her cheeks, like a stone falling into a calm lake, causing ripples.
Now, Xu Chu suddenly had an illusion that as long as he was by her side, she would be able to stay out of wind and rain. Even if the road is dangerous, you can see that the sky is clear and cloudy when you look up.
Because he was worried about Xiao Qinglang's words, Xu Chu never fell asleep. I don't know how long it took, but she finally fell asleep with heavy eyelids and a heart full of worries.
The night was silent, the lights were lonely, and the side door of the Zhou Mansion was suddenly knocked open by a galloping comer. The men showed their cards to the porter, and then hurried towards the study.
"Lord Wang, Zhang Jiao committed suicide by hitting his head against the wall, and his subordinates were incompetent and one step too late."
At this moment, the guard had just finished speaking. The guard outside the door whispered: "Lord Wang, Lord Xu and Lord Tang are here." β
Xiao Qinglang glanced at the guards who went to monitor Zhang Cell, waved him to retreat temporarily, and just as he turned around, he spoke again: "Let people guard the scene, and no one is allowed to enter or leave without permission." β
After reading the confession and other things sent by Xu Qinhe, his face became more and more condensed.
"It's really unscrupulous to the extreme, and this Jinzhou City has really become an extralegal place in the eyes of those people?"
Xiao Qinglang's expression seemed calm, but it was difficult to hide the coldness and solemnity in his eyes, and after a long time, he raised his hand and took a cinnabar pen and reviewed it on the files that Xu Qinhe had organized.
"Although the matter of impersonating officials cannot be announced to the world in a grand manner, the evidence of the crimes of corruption and perversion of the law during their tenure is complete, and the establishment of private mines and smelting weapons under their rule is regarded as an unpardonable crime." After speaking, the word "chop" on the paper jumped on it.
