Han Changwan was not surprised, but showed an expected expression, nodded and said, "It's okay, put the medicine away, send a small stove and medicine jar in, and then move a boxwood bath bucket and pour it full of bath soup and send it in." ”

The man should have claimed that it was, put the medicine on the table, and turned to prepare.

Xie Mengxia came over with a melancholy face, and sighed: "Jiuchao, I am short of medicine, what can I do." He turned his head to look at Yao Qi: "This girl, it won't really be hopeless." ”

Han Changwan said confidently: "No, I expected that I might not be able to buy that medicine, I have other preparations, but Ah Ji has to suffer a little guilt." ”

Xie Mengxia pursed his lips and didn't speak.

He felt that Yao Qi was already very guilty like this, how else could he be offended.

After a while, the prepared items were sent into the room, and when the two Hu people withdrew, they closed the door of the room, and then one of them was very vigilant at the door of the room, and the other went to the front yard.

Han Changdui opened the burden he picked up from under the cliff, took out the hollow tea brick and broke it, and a whole piece of concocted rhubarb fell out.

Xie Mengxia was very surprised when he saw these things for the first time, picked them up and asked, frowning slightly: "This is, rhubarb?" He paused, and in an instant, he scolded angrily in a low voice: "These black-hearted people dare to earn any money, and they don't take the country in their eyes at all, what is the difference between this and giving away my Dajing border." ”

Han Changwan divided the rhubarb into a suitable amount, put it in the medicine jar, and boiled it with the medicine he had just caught.

Hearing Xie Mengxia's words, he smiled faintly: "Everyone in the world says that His Royal Highness the King of Han is a bastard, but I don't think so." ”

Xie Mengxia touched the back of his head, and smiled: "It's true that I'm squirming, and it's also true that I'm in general, it's just a little bit more." ”

Han Changwan pursed his lips, slowly stirred the medicine jar, and said slowly: "It's not just rhubarb, I have come all the way, in the hands of the Weiyuan Dart Bureau, in the hands of the Zhou Jialou boat, I saw the crossbow that is only available in the army, and the Turks are ready to move, but the officials of our court are busy with party disputes to eliminate dissidents, and the generals in the army have no intention of training the troops and only care about collecting money and choosing the master. ”

Xie Mengxia's heart tightened, he didn't think about this, he just didn't think about it, he didn't think about it so seriously, he just felt that as long as he kept his head down, didn't fight or grab, and let King Qin ascend the throne as he wished, he would be able to retire and be an idle prince of idle clouds and wild cranes.

But he forgot that the tree wanted to be quiet and the wind did not stop.

He wanted to retreat, but there were always people behind him who didn't want him to retreat, or rather, no one believed that he really wanted to retreat.

His retreat, in the eyes of outsiders, is nothing more than retreat.

He shook his head with a wry smile and sighed.

What is this called, there are people who envy, envy and hate when you are a gentleman.

He sighed: "Jiuchao, we have been missing for so long, there is still movement in the capital." ”

Han Changwan pursed his lips: "Naturally, wait a few days, the news will reach here, and we will know, and we can have a response when we return to Beijing." ”

There was a gurgling sound in the medicine jar, and the smell of this medicine was very different, it was not bitter or fragrant, but there was a faint smell.

Han Changwan poured the decoction medicine into the bath soup, stirred well, and then said to Xie Mengxia: "You roll up the trouser leg of Yao Qi's left leg." ”

Xie Mengxia nodded and did as he was told.

Han Changdui took out the dagger, roasted it on the candle flame, and aimed it at Yao Qi's leg.

The wound on the leg had healed, and the redness and swelling had disappeared, but it left a deep black mark that meandered away in the direction of the heart.

Han Changdui took a slow breath and held the dagger steadily, and the cold light flashed.

The dark black mark was turned into an extremely deep knife cut, and the bright blood flowed out at once, but the dark black mark did not change at all.

Yao Qi, who was unconscious, struggled for a moment, and his face showed a painful and distorted appearance.

Han Changdu's heart ached for a moment, then he came back to his senses and asked Xie Mengxia to pick up Yao Qi and soak her leg in the bath.

The blood was gushing, and in an instant, it stained the bath red.

Xie Mengxia was dumbfounded, for fear that Yao Qi's poison would not be solved, so he died of blood first, and was stunned for a long time before he said: "Jiu Chao, your method is unreliable, don't run out of blood after a while." ”

Han Changdui pursed his lips and said nothing, his eyes looking at the bath soup without blinking.

I saw that the color of the blood gradually changed, no longer bright red, but became cloudy, as if mixed with a trace of misty color.

Han Changdui sighed quietly, and the heart that had been hanging high was placed in his heart.

He looked at the bath soup calmly, and said lightly: "Look, there has been a change, don't worry, although she will lose too much blood, her life is fine, just make up for it." ”

Xie Mengxia pursed his lips.

The emotion is not that he has lost too much blood, is dizzy and can't stand, so he doesn't feel distressed.

The blood became more and more turbid, and the gray color gradually turned black, as if it had a spirit, and it rose and fell in the bath.

Han Changdui watched the changes in the bath soup, and he knew better, so he picked up Yao Qi, wiped his wet legs, and sprinkled knife wound medicine to stop bleeding on the wound.

The bleeding slowly stopped, and the trace of dark black, visible to the naked eye, subsided, turning into light gray, but it was still very long.

He nodded with satisfaction, and finally showed a faint and hearty smile: "It seems that this method is useful, and if you soak it like this two or three times, the poison can be completely solved." ”

Xie Mengxia pursed his lips even harder.

If you put two or three more rounds of blood, I am afraid that before the poison is resolved, the person will really die of blood.

He pouted and said, "Jiu Chao, are you sure that Ah Qi's blood is enough for you to put it like this?" ”

Han Changwan smiled: "In the past few days, cook her some more perfect tonic soup to drink." ”

Xie Mengxia snorted, wiped Yao Qi's feet clean, put on her foot clothes, and just halfway through, he exclaimed in surprise: "Jiuchao, look, come and see, what is this, how can there be such a thing on Ah Qi's body." ”

Han Changwan was shocked by Xie Mengxia, and when he hurriedly looked at it, his face sank.

He scooped Yao Qi's leg and took a closer look at the inside of his ankle.

There was a tattoo under the skin, and it was a four-petaled plum blossom, and the stamen of the plum blossom was the shape of a five-petal snowflake.

His eyes were stung violently, and he was speechless for a while.

Xie Mengxia didn't know the meaning of this tattoo, but he knew it.

He had interrogated Li Huwei and knew what the seal they used to convey the news was, and he had also seen the pouch in Li Huwei's hand, and he was really impressed by this tattoo pattern.

He couldn't figure out why this tattoo appeared on Yao Qi's body and what it represented.

He didn't speak, feeling Yao Qi's ankles slowly cool down.

Xie Mengxia suddenly shouted: "It's gone, it's gone, look at you for a long time, it's gone, the tattoo is gone." ”

Han Changwan came back to his senses suddenly, and then looked at Yao Qi's ankle, and it was really empty, making him so white and delicate.

He was stunned, trying to dismiss it all as an illusion, but he couldn't deceive himself.

He pressed Yao Qi's feet into the bath again and soaked them for a while.

When I took it out again, the tattoo reappeared.

Xie Mengxia was surprised: "This, what kind of magic skill is this, I haven't heard that the sin slave in the court has to tattoo such a green one." ”

Han Changwan was a little distracted, and muttered, "The sin slaves in the court, wouldn't it be too wasteful to use this ancient technique of the previous dynasty to mark it." ”

"What are you talking about, Jiu Chao, this is the ancient technique of the previous dynasty." Xie Mengxia was taken aback and asked.

Han Changdui came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I saw it in a book, but after careful comparison, it is not the same as Ah Qi's tattoo, Ah Qi's tattoo is estimated to be injured in the court, and the internal officials are afraid of being punished, so they should use the tattoo to cover up the scars." ”

"Cover up the scars?" Xie Mengxia looked at his ankles carefully in disbelief, frowned, and said, "Jiuchao, don't be funny, there are no scars here." ”

Han Changwan said seriously: "Don't you know those tricks in the court? It is estimated that he was beaten hard, leaving scars, and then Ah Ji was taken by some nobleman, originally he wanted to raise him and sacrifice it to the saint, so as to leave scars, but it was a big sin, and the internal officials couldn't hide it? It is estimated that when he was injured, Ah Qi was young, and the scar slowly grew on its own. ”

Xie Mengxia naturally knew about the unsightly things in the court, and when he heard Han Changwan say this, he also let go of his doubts, thought about it, and suddenly asked: "Jiuchao, did you say that Ah Ji knew about the existence of her tattoo." ”

Han Changdui was stunned.

He thought of the reason why Yao Qi looked strange several times, all because he found something, and he felt clueless at the time, but now when he compares this tattoo, all his doubts are solved, it turns out that all the sources are here.

He nodded and said slowly: "I think, she should know, but the girl's family has these, after all, it is not so glorious, when Ah Ji wakes up, don't ask her." ”

Xie Mengxia nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, don't worry, I won't ask." ”

Han Changwan was a little absent-minded, afraid that Xie Mengxia would see something, so he shouted outside, and the Hu people who were guarding the door hurriedly pushed the door in, bowed down and stood quietly.

He commanded in a deep voice: "Remove these things, we have to rest for a while, and don't come in and disturb you if you have nothing to do." ”

"I'm not tired, I don't have to rest." Xie Mengxia hurriedly spoke, smiled at Han Changdui and said, "Jiuchao, if you are tired, you can sleep for a while, I am not tired at all, let your subordinate take me out for a walk." ”

Han Changdui had expected that Xie Mengxia would not be able to stay, so he waited for him to speak, so he smiled and said: "It's okay, the bustle and prosperity of Gaochang City is not inferior to Chang'an, and there are not so many rules and constraints, Ah Jiu, you accompany Gongzi Xie to take a walk around the city to ensure Gongzi Xie's safety." ”
