Chapter 215: The Dust Settles
Liu Ruyan had a dream.
In the dream, she turned into a grass, growing on the top of the green mountains, and was enlightened by the essence of the sun and the moon.
There was a pharmacist who went up the mountain to collect medicine, and when he saw her, his eyes were filled with joy.
She recognized this person as Bai Zhi.
Bai Zhi smiled brightly, pulled her out of the soil, put her in a basket and took her away.
Back at the pharmacy, Bai Zhi carefully stuffed her into the furnace.
Liu Ruyan looked at the dark medicine furnace, bubbling hot, filling the room with bitter and astringent taste.
Bai Zhi coaxed and deceived: "Be good, take a sip and you'll be fine." β
She was choked by the bitter taste, and immediately slapped over: "Drink your sister!" β
Liu Ruyan sat up from the bed.
What caught my eye was a bowl of black medicinal soup.
Shen Yanchu sat at the head of the bed, his eyes were still a little confused.
Liu Ruyan rubbed her forehead: "How did I hear Bai Zhi's voice." β
Shen Yanchu held the bowl: "He was going to give you medicine just now, but who knows, you are not honest in your dreams." β
She raised her eyes and looked around: "What about Miss Wan?" β
Shen Yanchu's tone was very unkind: "I escaped from the palace, and I don't know where to go for a long time." β
She nodded, but the medicine in front of her was too bitter, so she pushed the bowl away with disgust: "What kind of medicine, it smells so bad." β
Shen Yanchu looked at her: "This bowl of medicine clears heat and reduces fire, and can relieve the incense poison in your body." β
She was embarrassed: "It's okay not to drink." β
Shen Yanchu's attitude was firm: "No." β
Liu Ruyan tried to change the topic: "I still remember that in the barracks, the Jiangnan Navy Division used hallucinogenic incense, which made people mistakenly think that the commander was killed. Thinking about it this way, the method is the same. β
Shen Yanchu recalled: "The Buddha incense this time is much more clever than before. β
She agreed: "The so-called demons and monsters are nothing more than delirium caused by inhaling Buddha incense." No one would have expected that this headless public case would come from the hands of a kind-hearted monk. β
Ye Xun couldn't help but spoiler: "The Holy Grass of the Western Regions can be used for medicine and can also be refined into poison." Overdose can lead to hyperactivity, visual and auditory hallucinations, and even madness. β
"I see."
When Shen Yan first heard her nonsense, he was almost fooled.
"Do you know that incense poisons people, but you still refuse to drink medicine?" He stirred the bowl and scooped a spoonful, "The medicine is mixed with honey, it tastes not bitter, if you don't want to drink it, I will feed you." β
He fed the medicine to her mouth.
Liu Ruyan held her breath and took a small sip.
He scooped up the second scoop.
Liu Ruyan opened her mouth to swallow and asked vaguely, "Why are you so good to me?" β
Shen Yanchu was silent, and along the way, she rescued him from trouble, taught him to make water, and helped him find the enemy who killed his mother back then.
No matter how much he does, he can't get as much as hers.
"Even if it's a heart made of ice, when I meet you, I will be warmed by you." His voice was shallow.
Liu Ruyan looked at him, this person not only had a good skin, but also spoke as sweet as honey.
It's no wonder that she was bewitched and fell into the love web he weaved.
Liu Ruyan grimaced and leaned close to his lips.
Because he was holding the medicine in both hands, Shen Yanchu was caught off guard and was kissed by her on the corner of his lips.
"Sweet." Her eyes were slightly drunk.
After feeding the medicine that night, he stayed in her room.
Following.
The sky was clear, and everyone said goodbye to the lord.
In view of the fact that the evil case has been solved, a piece of the lord's heart has finally fallen, and in front of the civil and military officials, Xu Liu Ruyan and several people have a wish.
Do you want to?
The officials looked at each other, and all they could think of was money, power, and supreme honor.
Liu Ruyan glanced at Shen Yanchu, Bai Zhi, Dong Qingxian, Gong Yuyu, and Jin Buchang.
After thinking for a moment, she stepped forward and saluted: "I have a friend who is from Jinling, who has been separated from his family since he was a child, and has been searching for his relatives for many years without success, so I want to take this opportunity to ask the lord of the country to grant him a wish. β
"Don't change the money, look for relatives." She was loud.
When Jin Buchang heard this, a sour feeling gushed out of his chest, and he looked at her straight back in a daze, with sonorous fortitude in her weakness.
The lord of the country looked at Jin Buchang and nodded: "Okay, I will grant you this wish." β
"Tobe Shangshu." The lord of the country himself ordered, "From now on, all household registrations will be thoroughly checked." β
"Minister, obeyβ"
At the same time, the prompt sounded: "The plot character does not change money, the loyalty value is 90, and the concentric contract with the host has been successfully concluded." β
Noon.
The palace guards escorted Liu Ruyan and his party out of the palace gate along the way.
The carriage drove down the streets and alleys, and then found an inn to settle down.
Liu Ruyan changed out of the Bai costume on her body and returned to her original male appearance.
When he came out of the room, Gong Yuyu was still stunned: "Why did you wear this dress again?" β
She turned the dagger and inserted it into the waist seal: "It's just convenient." β
Bai Zhi had just set up the empty space, he walked out of the room, and Zhang Luo said, "Everyone is hungry, let's go to the second floor to eat." β
The inn is located on the bank of the Qinhuai River, with a unique view, and there is a corridor on the second floor, which is the most suitable to enjoy the scenery of Jinling.
The riverside is covered in silver, and the flaming red lanterns are hung on the branches, and it is already approaching the end of the year.
As soon as Liu Ruyan sat down, a small servant came out to serve tea, she ordered some home-cooked dishes, and the rest added a few more special dishes to make up a table.
Waiting for the cooking, she looked around, and saw that behind the bamboo curtain, there was a clear figure, like Gu Tian.
The man drank alone, looking at the river.
"Guest, serve the foodβ"
Liu Ruyan sat on her side and asked the little guy to put the dishes.
Gu heard the voice from afar, and was surprised and delighted for a moment.
"Little brotherβ" he beckoned.
Liu Ruyan smiled in return.
Gu Tian walked over: "I didn't expect to meet old friends here, very coincidentally, very coincidentally." β
Shen Yanchu stared at him: "This is ......"
Liu Ruyan explained: "The painter Gu Tian once painted for the lord of the country. β
Everyone suddenly heard of Gu Tian's name.
It's not good to let the guests stand dryly, Bai Zhi warmly invited: "Since we all know each other, Brother Gu doesn't need to be polite, come and sit down." β
Gu Tian responded with a smile.
During the banquet, Gu Tian spoke more and more.
Although he is gentle, after getting acquainted with everyone, he is not informal.
After some conversation, it was found that Gu Tian was the oldest, and Liu Ruyan was the same age as Gong Yuyu.
Gong Yuyu is still fighting: "Huai'an was born in August, what about you, Xiaobing?" β
Liu Ruyan: "I am on the fifth day of the first lunar month." β
Gong Yiyu counted the days: "Isn't it tomorrow?" β
She nodded.
Dong Qingxian proposed: "It's better to hold a birthday banquet for Yan'er, what do you think?" β
She touched her nose, but she became restrained: "Don't be so troublesome, in addition to eating, the birthday banquet is to drink, and it costs money." β
"You don't know that." Jin Buchang was interested, "In addition to eating, drinking and having fun, the birthday banquet can also receive gifts. You guys, you have to be prepared. β
Gifts? Dong Qingxian almost forgot about this stubble.
Jin Buchang summed it up slightly: "It's better to do this, tomorrow night, my son will be the east, go to the best restaurant in Qinhuai River, and celebrate Brother Liu's birthday." β
The matter was settled.
