Chapter 096: It Must Be Demonic
But she had never seen anyone seriously injured in her memory, even if it was Ling Yan's last appearance, it would not be blurred with flesh and blood.
It must be a demon, right? She shook her head.
Her self-annoyed appearance obviously had a different meaning in Shuyin's eyes, and Shuyin grabbed her hand and pinched it: "It's going to be fine." ”
The two sisters of the Su family next door also looked over, Su Xinrong had obvious resentment in her eyes, but Su Peirong had a poisonous light in her eyes.
Changying ignored them, trying to stay calm and sitting, at this time, the curtain on the side was lifted, but someone came out and went directly to this side of the house: "Mrs., the doctor has cleaned up the wound, the uncle asked General Shen if he was there, if so, please ask General Shen to come into the house, our master has something important to tell." ”
Everyone in the room stood up, and Mrs. Xu's eyes fell on Changying, and then asked the visitor: "Does the injury matter?" What about doctors? ”
"The doctor came out immediately and said that there was no major problem, only the rib wound needed to be carefully repaired."
Mrs. Xu nodded, and said to Changying: "If you invite General Shen inside, there must be important business, and the general will go." ”
With a long tasseled jaw, he quickly followed his family into Xu Lan's house.
Su Xinrong got up and followed: "Didn't Brother Lan pass me on?" ”
Jia Ding looked apologetic: "The master only explained to invite General Shen in, and Miss Su please sit down for a while." ”
Su Xinrong bit her lip and stopped.
Stepping into the door, there was a strong smell of blood in front of him, and the smell of Jinchuang Medicine could not completely cover it.
Changying couldn't help but clench her fists, and when she arrived at the curtain, Xu Lan was lying on the bed with a pale face, covered with a thin quilt, and there were still a few shallow scratches on the exposed half of her arm. The doctor and a few family members were arranging their utensils under the window.
Changying stood still beside the bed, carefully looking at Xu Lan's expression, he seemed to notice it, slowly opened his eyes, and gestured, "Sit." ”
Then he raised his hand and waved, and the housekeepers under the window bowed their heads and led the doctor out.
"How could this happen?" Seeing that he was really in good spirits, Changying sat down on the bedside stool.
"It didn't happen to us, the two merchant ships were rented out by the shipowner."
"Rented out?" Changying's eyes paused slightly.
Xu Lan hummed lightly and said, "About a year ago, someone rented these two boats from the owner of the boat in the name of running a short river from Hangzhou to Huai'an to transport salt, tea and silk.
"Then I visited a few more ships, traced them all night, and finally found an official with a secret emblem in one of the dockyards that you and Zi Lan had checked.
"But according to the interrogation, they didn't know that the material came from the dock."
"And where did they get their stuff from?"
"It's a material workshop." Xu Lan gasped lightly and said, "Two ships transport the ship's materials to this workshop, and then sell them to the dock at a low price, because the quantity is large and common, and the dock does not know that it is not coming from the right way.
"Obviously, this workshop was specially opened by the thieves, and when I went to the workshop last night, I found that the person in charge of the workshop who had been in contact with me on the Fuzi ship was in the workshop.
"There was an accident when retreating, there were many people on the other side, we were outnumbered, and we were afraid that they would see the calendar, so we took a detour to Jiaxing and came back."
By the end, his gasp was already a little noticeable.
Changying hurriedly stopped the topic and pulled up the corner of the quilt that he had slipped because of the movement.
When he was lifted by the horns, several places on his chest that were bandaged came into view.
Her mind flickered, and suddenly there was something uncontrollable.
The familiar smell of the medicine and the small picture instantly made her feel distracted.
She didn't know what his injuries were under the quilt, but she was inexplicably nervous, as if she could see through the quilt the wounds on his chest where the flesh and skin had been turned up, as well as the bloody holes in his waist and abdomen.
How could this suddenly happen?
It shouldn't.
"You take care of the rest first." Xu Lan steadied himself and said again. "I'll talk to General Tan when I go back, you can deal with daily problems, and ask me if you have any difficult things, or report to General Tan directly."
As he spoke, he turned his head slightly sideways and looked at her with his lips slightly raised: "Aren't you bent on being promoted?" It's a good opportunity, it's up to you. ”
Changying's heart was surging and she said, "Don't worry about this, take care of your injuries." ”
Xu Lan smiled and closed his eyes gently.
Changying looked at his pale side face and unconsciously raised his hand......
"General Huo is here."
Suddenly, there was a sound at the door. As the words fell, Huo Rong had already walked in with a sword on his shoulder.
As soon as Huo Rong returned home, he heard the news that Xu Lan was injured, so he simply carried his sword to Xu's house without even entering the room.
After entering the door, he saw Shen Changying sitting at the head of the bed at a glance, and then his eyes fell on the hand that was only two inches away from Xu Lan's face.
"Brother Zishan?"
Xu Lan had already opened his eyes when he heard the voice.
He retracted his hand and cleared his throat instead.
Huo Rong clenched the handle of the sword, walked to the side of the bed, found a chair and sat down, and then turned his gaze to Xu Lan: "How is it?" Does it matter? ”
Xu Lan didn't realize that Fang was underneath, and raised his lips and said, "I can't be disabled!" Who of us in the army hasn't had a few wounds? ”
Changying's brain was buzzing, and the tip of his tongue was about to be bitten out by himself.
What did she just want to do?
How could she be so desperate as to touch Xu Lan's face?
How could she suddenly feel unbearable for Xu Lan, who was seriously injured?
Is she really stunned......
"Tassels?" Xu Lan woke her up, and cast a gentle gaze, "How many times have you been called, what's wrong with you?" ”
She cleared her throat and saw the pale lips under his warm gaze, and couldn't help but stay for a moment.
Huo Rong sat beside him, only to see that she was in a trance, her eyes were melancholy, from the past three years ago to the present three years later, he had never seen him hesitate and care, and at this moment, all appeared in front of Xu Lan.
His face darkened a little, and his hand rested on the armrest without making a sound.
"Master, it's time to take medicine."
The little guy came in with the medicine.
Changying got up and gave way, and also felt that he was stunned and couldn't stay any longer, so he said to Xu Lan: "You take care of it, I'll come back to see you." ”
Xu Lan raised his lips: "The affairs in the yamen will be handed over to you." ”
Huo Rong and the others flashed in front of him, and he also got up with the long sword that was holding out the oil: "Don't worry about the affairs in the yamen, it's more important to take care of your injuries than anything else." ”
Changying walked out of the door, the courtyard was already quiet, and Mrs. Xu was not there, so she had already moved to talk elsewhere.
She stood under the courtyard gate, squinting at the sky, the April afternoon sun was already fierce, and the stabbing on her face also hurt, but it finally made people feel real.
She gritted her teeth slightly, and was about to take a step, but there was a sound of footsteps behind her.
