"Guo Jia??"

Cao Wei frowned: "Guo Jia, isn't he with you?" ”

"Hey......"

Huang Duyu sighed first, and then said: "Yesterday, Guo Jia left the villa, saying that he wanted to go back to Jian'an City to tie up Brother Wei, but the result was ......."

"What happened?"

"As a result, a caravan that went to Jian'an to do business found that there was a young man with no clothes on the river, unconscious, and there were still a lot of bruises on his body, saying that he had been beaten, and then he was sent to Jian'an City to see a doctor, and the news had just arrived......

"Beaten? Who is ......?"

Cao Wei looked thoughtful, and then asked, "Guo Jia came here yesterday, did he offend anyone?" ”

Huang Du read the words and hurriedly said: "After visiting the villa yesterday, Mr. Murong went to talk to Guo Jia and He Miqing, saying that he had met Wang Yuan......

"Wang Yuan!"

Cao Wei suddenly realized.

Originally, Wang Yuan was a Confucian scholar, so he should not be a person who did such a thing.

After all, he still has to face next year's assessment, and if he does this kind of thing, he will definitely not pass the assessment!

You can pass this poetry meeting.

Cao Wei knew that this person would do anything for Murong Qing!

"Wang Yuan!"

Cao Wei gritted his teeth and looked at Yang Huai again: "Lord Yang, I just went to the back hall, where did Wang Yuanren go?" ”

"was taken away by a few people, and Wei Jinzhong didn't stop him, it seems that he should be King Yue's subordinates."

"King Yue's subordinates ......"

Hear these words.

Cao Wei was already convinced that it must be Wang Yuan's hand.

"Guo Jia is now in Jian'an City?!"

Huang Duyu nodded again and again: "Yes, according to the rumor, the person who spread the news said that Guo Jia woke up and asked people to come here." ”

"In that case, let's go back and see Guo Jia first!"

……

Night falls, and the stars are shining.

By the time Cao Wei returned to Jian'an City again, it was already time.

In front of a medical center in the west of the city, Cao Wei and the three of them stepped out of the carriage one after another.

"Lord Yang, thanks to you this time."

Cao Wei saluted Yang Huai, although there was not much contact, Yang Huai was obviously the kind of person he could befriend.

Yang Huai sighed: "Cao Huiyuan, that Wang Yuan has his back to King Yue, and Yang can't help anything, it's really ashamed......"

"It's fine."

Cao Wei smiled and waved his hand: "This matter has nothing to do with Lord Yang, and Lord Yang doesn't need to blame himself...... Farewell ......"

"Wait......"

"Is there anything else going on with Lord Yang?" Cao Wei looked puzzled.

"Cao Huiyuan, tomorrow I will send Yuanshan to your house, and in the future, Cao Huiyuan will no longer call himself a student...... Yang really can't afford it!"

Thinking of everything that happened today, where would Yang Huai still put an adult shelf in front of Cao Wei?

Now in his opinion, Cao Wei can still call him Lord Yang, which is already very good.

"Thank you ......"

Cao Wei smiled, did not continue to speak, and then followed Huang Duyu into the medical hall.

And Yang Huai also returned to the carriage and headed towards Guozijian.

The medical hall is not small, and the entire front hall is filled with an extremely strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine.

Seeing Cao Wei and Huang Du reading in, the middle-aged pharmacist who was originally standing at the front desk first looked at the two of them a few times, and then after seeing the shanshan on his body, he hurriedly bypassed the counter and walked to Cao Wei:

"Are the two of you the prisoners of the country?"

"Yes."

Cao Wei nodded yes.

When the pharmacist heard this, he hurriedly said, "The patient is resting in the back hall, and now his injuries are much better, please come with me to ......."

"Thank you!"

Following the pharmacist, the two soon came to the ward in the back hall.

As soon as I walked in, I saw Guo Jia lying flat on the hospital bed with his eyes closed.

He was bandaged in several places, his legs were fitted with two planks, and many purple-red bruises could be seen on his arms.

Just looking at it, Cao Wei frowned.

"Lao Guo ......"

Cao Wei shouted softly.

Guo Jia seemed to feel something, and slowly opened his eyes: "Brother Wei? …… Brother Wei, you're here! ”

He tried to look up, but he couldn't, and his expression was very distorted.

Seeing this, Cao Wei hurriedly walked to Guo Jia's bedside: "Don't move, take care of your injuries......

"Brother Wei......"

Guo Jia's voice changed a little: "By the way, Brother Wei, I heard that you participated in the poetry meeting today, what was the result, were you mentioned by the Great Confucian, and Mr. said that the Great Confucian was going to recruit disciples this time, and Mr. also asked me to tell you the proposition...... But I don't know if it was raised by that bitch.,Actually beat me with a stuffy stick.,And picked up all my shit.,I only sent two sets at the beginning...... Hey......"

Guo Jia's sudden broken mouth made Cao Wei stunned in his heart, and his heart was even more mixed.

It was precisely because of the brother's report that the accident occurred.

No matter how bold Wang Yuan was, he would never dare to do such a bad thing in front of everyone!

But fortunately, Guo Jia can still speak when he comes back......

If someone has already harmed you......

Cao Wei couldn't continue to imagine.

He held Guo Jia's hand tightly: "Don't worry, who am you Brother Wei, now that I have become a protégé of Confucianism, it is estimated that in two days, the academy will determine my identity as a Confucian......

"Okay......"

Guo Jia's face bloomed with a smile: "If you say so, if Brother Wei is admitted to the champion in the future, and has the status of a Confucian student, then the road to promotion will be much faster than ordinary people, and then I will take care of Brother Wei's shop, and we will definitely be able to become bigger and stronger......

"Yes."

Cao Wei was very pleased, at least Guo Jia didn't say anything about the collusion between officials and businessmen, he turned his head to look at the pharmacist and asked, "Doctor, I don't know how long it will take for him to recover?" ”

The pharmacist first glanced at Guo Jia, and then said to Cao Wei:

"Normally, it takes at least a year and a half to break the muscles and bones, but this little brother has practiced martial arts, although the kidneys are a little weak, but the muscles and bones are still good, my master said that it only takes two months to be able to get out of bed and walk......

Cao Wei sighed: "Two months, if you take the palace exam in two months, I'm afraid you won't be able to participate in it......"

"Brother Wei, it's just a palace test. I didn't want to continue to take the exam, anyway, I didn't have any chance, I just wanted to make Brother Wei's shop, and the champion still has to rely on you! ”

Hearing this, Cao Wei still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

In the face of everyone's entrustment, he naturally did not want to disappoint others.

But in the face of the champion in reality, he still has no confidence, after all, it is luck to lift people, and Gongshi is even more foggy.

No matter how lucky you are, you're almost running out by this point.

The temple test is the saint's own strategy, so if there is no real thing, what can be said to be admitted to the top prize?

But if you don't get the top prize, you have to line up to be an official.

Theoretically, they don't know how long it will take when it's their turn!

Maybe.

The only hope is the letter that Shi Zizheng wrote to the Imperial Doctor in his arms.

Thinking of this, Cao Wei stood up and arched his hand to the pharmacist: "Cao has something to say to my brother alone now, please ...... it."

Before he could finish speaking, the pharmacist nodded.

Huang Du read this, and followed the pharmacist out of the ward very familiarly.

Now there are only Cao Wei and Guo Jia left in the entire room.

Cao Wei sighed deeply: "You all say that you rely on me, but who can I rely on, as for this champion, I don't have the slightest confidence......

"Brother Wei, you're here again!"

Guo Jia saw Cao Wei so decadent, so he remembered the scene before the announcement of the apricot list: "Brother Wei, don't pretend, others don't know you, don't I know yet?" With your talents, you can do it! ”

"Hmm."

Cao Wei didn't know how to explain it.

Now I can only break the kettle and give it a try.

But now, what is in front of him is not only the problem of the palace test, but also the problem of Wang Yuan.

Cao Wei asked seriously: "By the way, do you know who did it to you this time?" ”

Guo Jia gritted his teeth, his face was full of resentment: "Except for Wang Yuan, there is no one else, and he is a Confucian student, he is so insidious, he actually dares to beat me with a stick, and when I am injured, I will definitely beat him!" ”

"Beat him up?"

Cao Wei hurriedly shook his head: "Behind him is the vassal king, you don't want to die?" ”

"Vassal King ......"

Guo Jia was stunned.

He naturally knew what the two words of the vassal king represented.

After thinking about it carefully, he immediately deflated.

"Don't be too discouraged, Wang Yuan's matter will be handed over to me to deal with, and I will help you avenge my brother's revenge sooner or later!"

"Brother Wei, you ......"

Guo Jia was first moved, and then he cared: "But Brother Wei, don't mess around, after all, your future is more promising than mine......"

"I've got my own measure!"

Cao Wei patted him on the shoulder: "You just stay here and recuperate, I still have some things to do......

"Okay, Brother Wei, don't be impulsive!"

"Don't worry."

The evening breeze blows.

After saying goodbye to Guo Jia, Cao Wei returned to the store.

After all, it was late, so naturally he would not go to the Yang Mansion to disturb the Imperial Doctor.

Although he only left for one day, he still cared about Li Ruolan's current situation.

Squeak –

After opening the door, Cao Wei walked straight to the second floor, stopped in front of Li Ruolan's room, and shouted softly:

"Master...... Master? ”

"Come in."

Li Ruolan's voice sounded, and Cao Wei's heart relaxed.

After all, Wei Jinzhong went to the villa today, and he shouldn't have found anything abnormal, if he found out, I'm afraid he would be arrested on the spot.

Open the door.

The dark bedroom was also lit by candlelight.

Looking at the light, Li Ruolan was sitting in front of the bed at the moment, and there was a big cake on the table, but a mouth was missing, and the tooth marks on it could be clearly seen.

"Master, this is ......"

Li Ruolan frowned slightly: "It's really hard to swallow." ”

"After all, it's still the son of a rich family...... Cao Wei sighed faintly: "Didn't the master say that he was not as fragile as the apprentice thought, why ...... now?"

Speaking of this, Cao Wei did not continue, but walked up to Li Ruolan, looked at Li Ruolan, and asked, "Master, do you know this Imperial Historian Yang Yi?" ”

"Yang Yi?"

Li Ruolan looked thoughtful, and then asked, "What are you asking for?" ”

"Uh, actually......"

Cao Wei thought about it, anyway, Li Ruolan and Wei Jinzhong had a common enmity, and then told Li Ruolan everything that happened in the academy today.

It's just that he concealed the news of the reincarnation of the saint, after all, he knew that he was not the reincarnation of a saint.

After Li Ruolan heard this, her eyes suddenly widened: "Are you saying that Shi Zizheng has taught you all the Haoran righteousness that he has practiced for decades?" ”

Cao Wei nodded.

Li Ruolan took a deep breath and showed a sudden look on her face: "Sure enough, Haoran righteousness can be passed on, so it makes sense......

"What, you don't know about this matter, Master?"

Cao Wei didn't understand a little, he had only heard Shi Zizheng say that Haoran righteousness could not be abolished, but since it could be taught, it was no different from being abolished.

"Don't say I don't know, I'm afraid even Wei Jinzhong doesn't know about it, I just heard my master mention it at the beginning."

Li Ruolan looked serious.

"Hey-then according to that, Wei Jinzhong really thinks that I let Shi Zizheng be abolished?"

Cao Wei didn't expect that his operation was actually to blow up Hu.

"But as a teacher, I have to admire your luck, not only did the great Confucian preach in this poetry club, but even other people's daughters turned over, you should be very happy now......

？？？

Cao Wei suddenly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and hurriedly asked: "Master, the apprentice didn't do anything, besides, that Shi Di is indeed beautiful, but it seems that he thought that the apprentice abolished his father......"

"Isn't it?"

Li Ruolan sneered: "You actually thought about Wei Jinzhong in front of people, but Shi Zizheng taught you all the righteousness of Haoran, causing him to live for a short time, what is the difference between this and you abolishing him?" ”

"It turns out that the master is angry with the apprentice......"

Li Ruolan was a little nervous: "I didn't have it!" ”

"Is it because the apprentice helped Wei Jinzhong speak, so the master is angry?"

When Li Ruolan heard the words Wei Jinzhong, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in her heart.

She herself didn't know why, but when Cao Wei talked about her son-in-law, her thoughts were also a little wonderful.

Obviously, Shi Zizheng is the key, but he is concerned about Shi Di......

I'm his master......

No way......

Dao heart will be in chaos......

No wonder Shi Zizheng passed on all the righteousness to him......

If you continue to contact him......

I'm afraid I'm ...... myself

No, it should be just because of the grace of saving lives, and I haven't been taken care of by a man before, so I ......

Well......

It must be so......

Li Ruolan hurriedly skimmed off the messy things in her mind.

"As the apprentice said just now, the apprentice felt that Mr. Bowang had the opportunity to enter the sainthood, so he deliberately delayed the time. If this move can really make him a saint, how dare Wei Jinzhong be so arrogant? ”

Li Ruolan thought for a while, and then said, "Hmm...... But now that I hear what you said, I feel that you should not follow the martial arts path now, but the Confucian path......"

"That's not going to work!"

Cao Wei shook his head again and again: "Before you don't enter the saint, you don't have the ability to protect yourself at all, even if you are a great Confucian, you still have to be coerced, if you don't practice martial arts, where can you be able to enter the saint in vain......

"If you are so greedy, if you can't get the east or the west, then what?"

"I don't care, I've already saved Master and you several times, you don't care if I have achieved it or not, anyway, I want to practice martial arts!"

"I'm afraid you won't be able to endure this hardship."

Li Ruolan's face was quite helpless.

When it comes to saving lives, she doesn't have any good solutions.

"Suffering?"

Cao Wei shook his head and smiled: "I have suffered enough in the past ten years, what is the hardship of practicing martial arts?" I'm just trying to live a good life now......"

"Live well......"

Li Ruolan was stunned for a moment, and then sighed: "Then what are you going to do now?" ”

"Tomorrow, I will go to Yang Yi first, deliver the letter to him, and then think about the matter of the palace examination......" Speaking of this, Cao Wei suddenly thought of Guo Jia again, and said: "And Wang Yuan, if you dare to attack my brother, I will definitely not be able to spare him!" ”

"You have a lot of ideas, but everything has to be done gradually, and it will take some time for my injuries to recover, since you sincerely want to learn martial arts, after your palace tries, I will arrange a master for you."

"Arrange another master?"

Cao Wei didn't understand a little, but because of Li Ruolan's injury, he really couldn't teach him.

"Not bad. While you still have time, you can rest and rest, after the palace test, whether you are an official or stay in the country, when the time comes, you can no longer ......stop practicing martial arts."

"Okay."

Cao Wei's eyes showed affirmation, and then he sighed: "I'm afraid the news of Shi Zizheng over there in Jiyun Academy will be spread tomorrow, I hope Mr. can leave peacefully......

Li Ruolan also sighed: "The death of the Great Confucian, even the saint has to pay attention, when Shi Zi was in the cabinet, he was a well-known Qingliu minister, but everyone knows that this road is not easy to walk, but I never expected that he would choose to die like this." If you become an official in the future, this road can be described as full of thorns, even if Yang Yi is indeed one of the few good people now, it is still difficult to ......"

"Don't be afraid."

Cao Wei smiled and shook his head: "The apprentice is not even afraid of death, what is this point, even if it is for the sake of this breath in my chest, I have to go on!" ”

Seeing Cao Wei so determined, Li Ruolan had no choice but to shake her head:

"With such a will, as a teacher, I underestimate you, no wonder Shi Zizheng has high hopes for you...... But don't call me Master in the future......"

"What does Master call you if you don't call you?"

Cao Wei looked questioning, and then asked, "Auntie?" ”

"Whatever you want. After all, I don't have time to teach you martial arts now, and the master I introduced to you will have a very strange temper, if she knew that you and I were a master and apprentice, she would not teach you. ”

Speaking of which.

Li Ruolan's face suddenly became a little strange.

This feeling made Cao Wei very uneasy, so he hurriedly asked, "What kind of strange method is it?" ”

"It's hard to say...... Anyway, if you follow her, you can learn the real kung fu you want, and her strength is not worse than mine......"

"Uh......"

Cao Wei also muttered a little in his heart when he heard this.

But I thought about it.

Which master hasn't had a weird temper?

"Okay, then let's arrange it like this, after the palace test, no matter if I am an official or not, I will go to her......"

Hearing Cao Wei's promise, Li Ruolan finally breathed a sigh of relief in her heart: "Well, it's not too early, let's sleep......"

When Cao Wei heard this, he prepared to turn around and leave.

However, at this moment, he glanced at the head of the bed.

I found that the familiar lotus flower was placed on the head of the bed.

He subconsciously moved his gaze to Li Ruolan's body.

Hiss –

Don't......

No, this thing messes with my Dao heart......

"What's wrong?" Li Ruolan frowned slightly.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing, just to see if my aunt's injuries are better......"

Cao Wei waved his hand and quickly fled the scene.

Seeing Cao Wei in a hurry, Li Ruolan was also a little puzzled.

I was determined just now, why did I suddenly become so flustered?

Following Cao Wei's gaze, she lowered her head, suddenly realized something, her face instantly turned red, and she hurriedly hid the coolness under the pillow.
