Chapter 235: Scorching Sun and Rainstorm
Standing in front of the window on the second floor of Yichun Hall, the prince stared at the carriage at the door of Yichun Hall, he sent someone to make trouble, wanting to take advantage of the chaos to open the car door to see who was inside, but in addition to the Xiao family, even Yichun Hall also helped to maintain, and the troublemakers couldn't get close to the carriage at all. (Download Floor.)
The crowd was full of Yan Wang's spies, and he was also afraid that it would make a big fuss, so Yan Wang took advantage of the situation to injure the Xiao family, and only waited here for four days in vain.
A glimpse in Yichun Hall that day made him suspect that the second grandmother of the Xiao Mansion was the god of medicine, but that day the second grandmother was covered with a veil and protected by Xiao Jun, so she couldn't see her appearance clearly, and she never dared to believe it, sincerely, he didn't want to believe that she was married to a wife, especially the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family.
"Your Highness, you've been standing for almost an hour, sit down and rest first, or the grass people will bring you a chair."
Listening to Li Du's words, the prince turned around, looked at him with clear eyes, if there was an invisible pressure released from the cold eyes, Li Du's forehead couldn't help but have a layer of fine sweat, forcibly suppressed the panic in his heart, and said again:
"Your Highness, please sit down and have a cup of tea first."
After looking at Li Du for a long time, the prince waved his hand and drove the guards out, and the guys from Yichun Hall saw it, looked at Li Du, saw him nodding, and also walked out, leaving only Li Du and the prince.
Slowly pacing to the table and sitting down, the prince took a sip of tea, seeing this posture, Li Du couldn't help but secretly complain, it seems that the prince is really suspicious of the identity of the master, otherwise he would be the prince of the court, how could he be with him in such a small place for four days.
Standing aside, Li Du looked at the prince cautiously, and after a long time, he only heard the prince ask:
"Li Du, this king heard that some medicines in Yichuntang have been out of stock these days, and it is rumored that the second brother has suffered an accident, whether the second brother is really in trouble, let's hear it, this king can give her a head."
"Back to His Highness, the master is just sick, and His Highness Lao is worried"
"Sick, the second brother is the god of medicine, how can it be so long to be sick and not cured!"
"As the saying goes, the doctor does not heal himself, and the calculator does not calculate himself, I am afraid that the master will not be able to cure it for so long because of his scruples."
When the prince heard this, he nodded and said:
"It's also this reason, where is the second brother, this king will send Imperial Doctor Li to personally show the second brother tomorrow."
Hearing the prince's undoubted words, Li Du's body trembled, and he hurriedly said:
"Thank you on behalf of the master, Your Highness, for your kindness, but the master is in the south, his body is weak, and he can't afford to travel and travel, and I'm afraid that he won't be able to return to Pingyang for a while."
Hearing this, a cold light shot out of the prince's cold eyes, stared straight at Li Du, and asked again word by word:
"The second brother is really not in Pingyang!"
The clothes on Li Du's back were already soaked, and when he saw the prince asking, he bit it, and said hard:
"The grass people don't dare to deceive His Royal Highness, if the master is in Pingyang, with the master's heart, how can he let Xiao Erye kneel there for four days, and the grass people have been persuaded several times."
Hearing this, the prince seemed to sigh, got up and came to the window again, Li Du reached out and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and followed the prince to the window, looking at the dark clouds floating in the sky at some point, and carefully reminded the prince:
"Your Highness, the sky is about to change."
Listening to Li Du's words, the prince looked up at the sky and muttered:
"It's really going to change."
After the prince finished speaking, he pondered for a moment, turned to Li Du and said:
"Li Du, now the queen mother in the palace is seriously ill, King Yan has a desperate situation, if King Yan attacks this king, in addition to the important ministers who support this king in the court, first of all, it is the Xiao family and Yi Chuntang, Li Du, you look outside, there are many spies in the crowd who are Yan Wang's spies, and they are going around to find out the whereabouts of the second brother, once the second brother falls into the hands of Yan Wang, Yichun Hall will be destroyed by Yan Wang in an instant, you tell the second brother on behalf of this king, now there is a rumor outside, and she should be careful, careful, careful."
The last three are careful, the prince looked at Li Du and said word by word, seeing that Li Du responded, the prince turned around and walked towards the door, and when he came to the door, he turned around sharply, and Li Du, who was following behind, almost bumped into him, hurriedly stopped, and asked:
"Your Highness, you still have something."
"Li Du, since the second brother is not in Pingyang, go down and persuade Xiao Jun again, lest he have a grudge against Yichuntang, at this time, Yichuntang and the Xiao family will fall out, and they will only be broken by King Yan, and it will not be good for anyone, you can do it yourself!"
"The grass people thank His Royal Highness for guidance, the grass people will go to persuade them, there are many people at the front door, Your Highness, please leave with the grass people through the back door."
……
Perhaps God was moved by this group of kind people, the onlookers were complaining about the scorching sun, and a dark cloud appeared in the sky, and a cool breeze blew, which suddenly made people feel a lot cooler.
It took a long time before I heard someone shouting:
"Oh no, it's going to rain, pack your things and go home!"
"The rain this summer is really fucking amazing, just said to come, just a sunny day, a moment of effort, the face has changed......"
As he was talking, a flash followed by a thunderbolt resounded in the air, and people were suddenly shocked into a pot of porridge, only to see the shops on both sides of the road busy collecting pretenses, and the hawkers hurriedly cleaned up their stalls, and those who walked and watched the excitement all hurried to their homes.
The black pressure at the gate of Yichun Hall pressed everyone, as if they were swept away by a strong wind, and disappeared in an instant, leaving only the second master kneeling there alone, the gorgeous carriage and a few guards by the carriage. In the distance, the servants of the Xiao family were also holding umbrellas and rain cloths, and they were running towards this side quickly.
Li Duxin walked out of Yichun Hall, looked at the second master who was still kneeling there, and shook his head unconsciously, in the past four days, he has persuaded the second master countless times, saying that the god of medicine is not in Pingyang, and Mrs. Xiao has long been out of breath, let him give up, but the second master is still kneeling there, he saw with his own eyes that the eldest master and the third master of the Xiao family have come to persuade him personally, but the second master just shook his head, stubborn like a child, in order to avoid being discovered by the guys that the person in the car is the god of medicine, he had to order all the guys in the Yichun Hall not to be within three feet of the carriage, and asked Ouyang Di to send a group of bodyguards who had never seen the owner to help the Xiao family protect the carriage.
Even the three daughters of the second master were ordered to come over and kneel down and beg their father to go back, asking him to let his mother be buried as soon as possible, but their father just said that, your mother is not dead, she is just asleep, superstitious that as long as the god of medicine is willing to act, Mengxi can come back to life.
Seeing that there were already dark clouds rolling overhead, and the rain was about to fall in an instant, the prince's words were still echoing in his ears, Li Du sighed, and came to the second master again and said:
"Brother Xiao, just listen to the persuasion, Mrs. Zun has long been out of breath, not to mention my master, even if Da Luo Jinxian comes, he can't be saved, you will die, and the funeral for Mrs. Zun as soon as possible can also make her bury as soon as possible."
"Shopkeeper Li, Mrs. is not dead, if she is dead, this hot day has already rotted, you look at her, she is still ruddy after four days, she is just asleep, she can't wake up, please be able to do good deeds, please come out of the god of medicine, even if it is a pill, as long as you can save Mrs. 's life, the god of medicine will agree to any conditions Xiao Jun, and ask the shopkeeper Li to speak well for Xiao Jun in front of the god of medicine."
"The second master doesn't know, Mrs. Zun's bird's nest porridge has been experienced, and it has been put under the crane ambergris, people who are poisoned by this poison, the body will not rot after death, and the face is as delicate as before death, there is no antidote to this poison within three days, and it will definitely die, it has been four days, Mrs. Zun is really not saved, as the saying goes, people can't be resurrected after death, the second master still looks away, you see, it's going to rain, you have been kneeling under the scorching sun for so long, and then you are excited by this rainstorm, and the iron man can't stand it, I'm afraid that Mrs. Zun is not saved, you are tossed down"
As he was talking, there was a flash above his head, and another thunderbolt, the white and bright raindrops fell immediately, smashed on the ground, splashed a lot of dust, and several heavy raindrops smashed on the back of the second master, and the second master trembled twice. The servants on the side had already put a rain cloth on the carriage, and when they saw the rain falling, Xiao Xia hurriedly came over to hold up an umbrella for the second master.
"Go away!"
The second master shouted violently, Xiao Xia shuddered, with a crying persuasion:
"Second master, don't torture yourself like this anymore, the second grandmother has been, has ...... If you continue like this, you will die sooner or later."
Just persuading, bowing his head to the awe-inspiring gaze of the second master, Xiao Xia unconsciously closed his mouth, took a step back, and held an umbrella for him behind him.
After a while, the raindrops were connected, everywhere was gray and cold, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and gradually the heaven and earth were inseparable, as if the water in the air was pouring down, and the sky became dark in an instant, and the water on the ground flowed everywhere, as if it had become a water world, and the umbrella above the second master's head was useless.
Li Du only became a soup chicken in an instant, and shouted at the second master:
"This rain is too heavy, please go to the medicine hall first to take shelter for a while!"
"Ask for the fulfillment of Shopkeeper Li, let Xiao Jun see the side of the God of Medicine! The great kindness of the shopkeeper Li, I, Xiao Jun, will definitely repay it in the next life. ”
The God of Medicine is in the car next to the second master, and no matter how good he is, he can't meet the overlord-like requirements of the second master. Seeing that the second master stubbornly refused to get up, Li Du was helpless, sighed, turned around and ran back to the medicine hall.
Seeing that the second master's face was blue and his lips trembled, Xiao Xia couldn't help but persuade again:
"Second master! Get in the car and take shelter, it's raining too much! ”
The master and servant have already become soup chickens, and the pouring rain made the second master's sad heart feel a lot better, and he also cleared up a lot, glanced at Xiao Xia and said:
"You go back, you don't have to stay here."
"Second master, the slave begs you to stop tossing, you go back to the house to take a look, the Xiao Mansion is gloomy all day long, even the old lady hasn't eaten for two days"
Xiao Xia saw that the second master finally spoke, and shouted at him loudly, the second master glanced at Xiao Xia, then stopped talking, just knelt there, closed his eyes, and let the cold rain pour on his body.
Gradually, the rain became lighter, and after a while, it started to fall again, this time, it was not as fierce as just now, but it was continuous, until the evening, the rain stopped, the second master was already kneeling in a piece of mud, and his body began to shake, even Xiao Xia was a little groggy.
There was no one on the road, only the five guards of the Xiao family were guarding around the second master and the carriage, all of them were dripping with water all over their bodies, and the rain was still flowing down their faces, although it was a hot summer, but these people couldn't help but tremble their teeth, trembling all over, while twisting the water on their bodies, while looking at the second master, at this moment, they couldn't wait to knock the second master unconscious and carry it back to the Xiao Mansion.
Suddenly, seven or eight black-clothed masked people jumped from the roof of Ruyi Restaurant across the street, and went straight to the carriage.
"Second master, look!"
The second master glanced back and shouted:
"Protect the carriage"
