The stars are shining, the moon is bright, and the hot wind of summer nights is always damp and cool.

"There is a Taoist hall in front, and there are some Taoist aunts living in it, let me knock on the door."

Murong Bai looked up at the Dao Hall standing quietly in the night, stopped, breathed a sigh in his heart, and turned back to the silent Han Qing behind him and said.

Since the two had a conflict on the road, Han Qing ignored Murong Bai with a cold face, but even if the two didn't speak, they still had a tacit understanding.

Han Qing cooperated with Murong Bai to gently put down Ye Hehua, who was carrying in his hand, and stood in place, silently guarding him who was unconscious, but his eyes kept following Murong Bai.

"Buckle buckle...... Anyone? Murong Bai pulled up the knocker and knocked on the door, shouting.

"Who? Out there? After a while, a quiet female voice sounded through the door.

Murong Bai pressed the sword under his clothes, turned his head to Han Qing behind him, and winked.

Han Qing pulled down the black cloth hat to cover the gloom in his eyes, and put his hand on the short knife at his waist.

"I am a merchant who is passing by, our family encountered robbers walking on the mountain road, my brother was attacked, his life was in danger, Wangdao Gu came to the aid and accommodated our family to stay overnight, and we will leave tomorrow night."

Murong Bai had already made up his rhetoric and sincerely begged for help.

Perhaps, Murong Bai's voice sounded like a good person, the door squeaked open half an inch of the gap, and an acquaintance's face was half revealed behind the door.

Murong Bai rushed at Han Qing with his back and made a pause gesture.

The man in front of him was stunned for a moment, and almost blurted out a certain name, but when he saw the unfamiliar face, he sighed faintly.

That person should be in the northern cold, how could he appear here! Zhao Jinyan retracted her eyes in disappointment.

"Can the Taoist be accommodating, let our family enter the door, my brother is now dying, and I am grateful." Murong Bai raised a kind smile and pleaded pitifully at the petite and delicate woman in front of him in a Taoist robe.

"Those two are your family?" Zhao Xinyan cautiously opened the door wider, probed slightly, looked through Murong Bai, and looked at the two people lying behind him.

"Yes, the one who is standing is my inner son, and the one who is lying is my brother." Murong Bai hurriedly replied, his eyes full of pain.

"Your wife is a Hu person? Can you show me what I really am? Zhao Xinyan saw the woman, tall and slender like a man, her face hidden under the hat, and her heart suddenly became vigilant.

During the day, people from the government came to the Taoist temple to search and ask her if she had seen three tall male criminals.

Han Qing slowly took off the hat, it was the face of a bearded girl, her facial features were delicate and delicate, like a porcelain doll, her eyes were bright, she looked at Murong Bai timidly and worriedly, waiting for rescue.

Zhao Xinyan was once in the palace and saw Bei Hanjing, who was taller than the woman in front of her, and her doubts were dispelled. The woman who sighed in her heart was that she didn't know what she had eaten, and her height was too strong.

"Come in, Xiaoqing, you take them to the empty room in the back." Zhao Jinyan glanced at the unconscious man on the ground, opened the door beside him, and waved his hand to the maid behind him.

"Thank you, Daoist." Murong Bai thanked gratefully, turned around and picked up Ye Hehua on the ground, and entered the door with his wife Han Qing.

As a few people spoke, a slender and thin woman came out of the door, and asked softly, "Who is Yan'er?"

"It's just a passing merchant who was attacked by robbers to stay overnight. Shishi, how did you come out. Zhao Xinyan approached her, supported her slender body and replied with concern.

Murong Bai looked up and said in his heart: Good guy, I met another acquaintance.

Zhao Jinyan, who came to open the door, is the daughter of Shangshu in the court, and the two also had a fate.

Originally, his father forced him to make the decision and went to the Zhao family to make a good letter of appointment, and the marriage of the two families was put on the agenda, but unexpectedly, his private treason was exposed by Sima Huan, but it was a mistake to break the red line forced by the family.

Although Murong Bai didn't like this girl, he didn't hate it, and he even had a good impression of her, but he couldn't help but be sorry for yellowing her for no reason and ruining her reputation.

The woman who came out of this back was Jiang Shi, the daughter of Jiang Taifu.

Although Murong Bai did not have deep contact with them, from childhood to adulthood, he had a lot of face-to-face meetings in and out of the palace, and there were a lot of superficial conversations, and they were quite familiar with each other.

Murong Bai wasn't sure if they would recognize him, so he could only keep his head down as much as possible to avoid it.

Jiang Shi stared at the group of three people walking along with the maids, and when she saw the strong smell of blood on their bodies, she frowned and avoided it.

Murong Bai nodded at them and smiled wryly, quite overstretched.

Jiang Shi waited for them to go away, then twisted the arm of her best friend, and said accusatorily: "You don't know, criminals have been arrested in the court in the past two days, why did you just open the door and lead people in."

"Oh, my sister, I can't see that family, sleep at the door, and don't save me. Besides, besides, the man who came to ask people was polite and educated, and he didn't look like a bad person, so they didn't dare to act excessively under the imperial city......"

Zhao Xinyan was twisted by her, and said with a bitter face and pretending to be pitiful.

"Hmph, you know the danger. In order to wait for that man to come back, you ran to this Taoist temple to become a nun and avoid other marriages.

Now there are a lot of people with human faces and beast hearts, if you are so ignorant of the importance every day, I am afraid that before you see him, you will have problems first. ”

Jiang Shi is really angry, her good best friend always doesn't know the importance of things, and acts willfully.

"Alas! The horse of the Northern Han is so good-looking, how can I compare. Don't talk about me yet, I heard that Yan Zijin is a playboy who doesn't want to marry you, what's the matter? ”

Zhao Jinyan looked at the big and round moon and sighed, turned his head, and worried about poor Jiang Shi again.

"The twisted melon is not sweet, if he doesn't want to marry me, he can only do that." There was a hint of astringency at the corner of Jiang Shi's mouth.

The two didn't have time to comfort each other, and suddenly, in the darkness, a man stepped out of the darkness and said, "Nagging two girls, you have hot water, I want to clean my brother-in-law's wounds."

The Hu woman, with her big black eyes, permeated with a faint light in the moonlight, and the two of them were startled, and they didn't know how many words she had heard hiding in the dark.

"I have some left." Jiang Shi was weak and his limbs were cold since he was a child, even if it was a hot summer, he still had to wash with hot water, and he had some leftover just now, so he replied.

The Hu woman continued: "And can you prepare me a few jars of wine, a few clean cloth towels, a longer silver needle, chopsticks, a pair of scissors and some strong thin thread, and some food. The girl who had just led the way pointed in the direction and walked away quickly, and I turned back to the two of them. ”

"Well, I'll ask Ah Chu to deliver the things you need to you as soon as possible, and besides, you can also tell us if you need anything." Zhao Xinyan was quite generous in her behavior, and replied briskly.

Han Qing gently owed a debt of gratitude. If it weren't for the fact that he was a 100% man, people who didn't know would think he was an original woman.

Zhao Xinyan really kept his word and quickly sent someone to deliver the necessary utensils.

In the room, the lights and candles were dim, and Han Qing played with his hands and surgical tools cleanly.

He grabbed the silver needle, roasted it, and nimbly threaded the black thread through the pinhole.

Murong Bai lifted Ye Hehua's bloodstained clothes under Han Qing's suitability, the blood inside had already coagulated, and the clothes were tightly attached to the wound, and the blood was really miserable.

Han Qing's eyes trembled, the hand holding the needle trembled, and he took a tight breath to calm his mind.

Murong Bai soaked the cloth before removing the cloth that was close to his belly.

Han Qing stroked the cracked belly intently, gently wiped it off with a cloth, and glanced at Ye Hehua's extremely pale face, with some pity in his eyes.

Murong Bai saw that he seemed to have a sense in Yehehua, and said in a strong voice beside him: "Hualang, you can start quickly."

Han Qing firmed up, quickly unsealed the lid of the wine jar with his wrist, and washed the hot wine on Ye Hehua's wound.

"Hmm......" Ye Hehua was in a coma, uneasy and painful*, his hands and feet began to move, and Murong Bai quickly tied his wrists with ropes and pressed his legs and feet.

After Han Qing rinsed the wound, under the light of Murong Bai, he used chopsticks to pick out all the dirt on those intestines.

After doing this, Murong Bai handed over the silver needle at the right time.

Han Qing took a deep breath, the quick knife was temporarily numb, the silver needle in his hand flew over, and his belly was quickly sewn up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Murong Bai put down the candle flame in his hand, wiped away Han Qing's sweat with a cloth towel, and said comfortingly: "It's hard work, take a rest, life and death are in the sky, wealth and fortune are fate, don't think too much, tired yourself."

Han Qing sighed silently, looked at the bright moon outside the window and said, "You say, if I hadn't taken him back to Beihan at the beginning, would he have a better life?"

Murong Bai put his arm around his shoulders and comforted: "He used to be a proton under the fence, and I'm afraid his life will not be comfortable."

"Hehe, that's better than giving me my life."

Han Qing sat down, poured the remaining sake on the table, and poured a bowl of Murong Bai and himself respectively, his slender eyes crossed with doubts and vulnerability, and continued:

"I really don't know, you know me, good or bad? Originally, you were in Muyun, a celebrity with a respected status in front of the emperor, but now because I have become a traitor, I have been misunderstood and spurned by others.

I really don't know how to compensate you. I'm just on the way, and I hope you can join Beihan, it's too much to force you, and it's also a violation of my original promise to you, I'm sorry. ”

Murong Bai was relieved to see that he was willing to communicate with him, and said with a helpless smile: "This is my own choice, I have never complained about you, you don't need to blame yourself, I only have you in Beihan now."

I'm afraid that you really ignore me, otherwise I really don't have any friends and a reason to stay in Beihan. ”

Han Qing's slender fingers tightly grasped the mouth of the porcelain bowl, lowered his head and said, "Zhao Xinyan is your fiancée, do you like her?"

"It's just fate, it's not enough to mention." The corners of Murong Bai's mouth seemed to be a little regretful, but there was not much sadness in his eyes.

"I just heard that she became a Taoist aunt in order to wait for you to come back, perhaps, you should give her an explanation."

Han Qing held the bowl of sake, raised his head, and said sincerely in a suggestion.

"She really loves Mu Mou, I really don't deserve her to pay." Murong Bai's thin lips were slightly curled, and apologies flashed in those good-looking starry eyes.

At this time, there was a sudden movement outside the door, and someone's footsteps gradually ran.

"You stay here, I'll go out and have a look!" Murong Bai pressed Han Qing, who wanted to get up, opened the door and dodged to chase him......
