Chapter 163: The Man Who Hides in the Shadows
"The girl is asleep?" Yu Shu came in from outside the house, saw Zhou Jin walking out of the inner room, and said in a low voice.
Zhou Jin nodded, reached out and rubbed the corners of his forehead.
"That...... Shall we go next door and give you a needle?" Seeing his movements, Yu Shu frowned slightly, "Your situation doesn't seem to be the same as what I know."
Although he traveled all the way, as long as he was free, Yushu would administer injections and medicine for Zhou Jin.
It stands to reason that he shouldn't have any more headaches.
Zhou Jin turned his head and glanced at the inner room, a slight smile on his lips, and then he went to the next room with Yushu.
After diagnosing the pulse, Yu Shu's brows furrowed even deeper, but fortunately, before leaving Kyoto, Xun Lao gave her two tips and asked her to open them when necessary.
Without hesitation, Yu Shu took out the tips from the bottom of the medicine box and opened them.
Zhou Jin's situation was beyond her knowledge, but it was expected by Xun Lao, and after reading it, Yu Shu breathed a sigh of relief.
The reason why Zhou Jin's situation is like this has something to do with his thoughts, but there is no way to stop something like this.
As long as he thinks too much, it will aggravate the discomfort, but fortunately, there is Xun Lao's method, which can be combined with acupuncture to relieve his discomfort.
Yu Shu knew in his heart that the current situation, only if his girl fully recovered, could his uncle not think about it.
Otherwise, he will take everything down, just so that the girl can take care of herself.
"What's wrong?" An Yang's voice came from the door, and she saw Yu Shu acupuncture for Zhou Jin.
"It's not a big deal, don't tell Yangui." Zhou Jin looked at her and said in a light tone.
"Don't worry, I'm sure I won't say it." She came in from outside the house and sat down in a chair beside her.
"What's on the county lord's mind? If it's inconvenient to tell Yangui, and you're panicking, you can talk about it together."
The two of them are cousins and brothers, and now many things are handled by Zhou Jin instead of Xie Yangui.
Therefore, if Anyang has something on his mind, he can indeed talk to Zhou Jin.
"This thing...... I don't know how to speak, so I'll wait for the goose to recover a bit." After a moment of silence, An Yang spoke.
"With ...... What does the Xie family have to do with it?" Before her words fell, Zhou Jin spoke again, and An Yang suddenly glared at him.
"It was handed over to you by the old prince of Qian'an and asked you to hand it over?" An Yang's eyes widened.
"In this case, if you find it inconvenient, just wait for Yangui to recover and then tell her, maybe she will take the initiative to ask you soon."
Xie Yangui had already noticed that Anyang had something on his mind, and it was related to her, so it would be a matter of time before he took the initiative to ask.
"You're a very flexible person." An Yang poured himself a cup of tea, and raised his eyebrows as Xie Yan returned to his usual appearance.
"Thank you Lord for the compliment." Zhou Jin didn't have any expression on his face, he thought about it and added, "Your Majesty has other arrangements for the Qiannan Border Pass, and Ji Zheng will come here in the near future."
"Ahem, cough, cough ......" An Yang was suddenly choked by the tea.
Xie Yangui didn't know about these little episodes, and during dinner in the evening, Anyang handed her the letter that he kept on her behalf.
I didn't expect to receive a letter from Bailushan at the border of southern Qian, Xie Yangui was very surprised and hurriedly unfolded.
"It's my sister's letter." She read the letter carefully.
As usual, the letter is concerned about her current situation, then reminds of what should be noted, and finally admonishes.
In this letter, Xie Yangui was reminded to be careful of his illness.
"Yushu, can you send someone to find out and see how the medicinal herbs are stored in the border gates?"
"Rest assured, the girl has known about it a long time ago, and has been sending various medicinal herbs in case of emergency."
Before Xie Yangui left Kyoto, Qifeng Palace also sent someone over, and when Yushu left from Kyoto, he knew about the epidemic virus and illness, and of course he had to prepare.
Zhou Jin sat next to Xie Yangui, glanced at the letter, and saw the handwriting on it.
As for the identity of Xie Yangui's senior sister, he had speculated before, and now it has been further confirmed.
——
The night was dark, and Xie Cheng leaned on the beauty chair, holding a book in her hand.
There was a slight knock in the door of the temple, and she looked up at the people who had entered the temple.
It's Yunlan.
Today, Emperor Mingde is elsewhere, and it is an opportunity to meet and talk.
Yun Lan is the Gong Zheng of the Gong Zheng Division, and he is also the head of the internal guard, so it will be more convenient for him to act late at night.
In addition, Emperor Mingde had only inspected him, so as long as he was more cautious at the moment, there would be no problem.
"Sit down." Xie Ji had already ordered someone to prepare refreshments, she put down the book in her hand and beckoned Yunlan to sit down.
"Do you want to talk about the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet?" After sitting down, Yunlan was straightforward.
Although it was late at night, in the palace, there was no time when there would be an accident.
"Yes." Xie Cheng nodded, "I know that I don't need to deliberately tell these things, but in the game, I have to be more cautious."
"I understand." Yun Lan nodded, he knew that Emperor Mingde wanted to choose someone from among the princes to sacrifice for him, and it was inseparable from Xie Xi.
also knew that she had sent someone to Concubine Xian and Concubine Shu to say some words, so as to make the two more calculated.
In order to make Xie Xie's plan go more smoothly, Yunlan did a lot of fueling the troubles.
Some of the letters sent by Concubine Shu to the third prince were intercepted by him, and he did not change the news between Concubine Xian and the eldest prince.
Emperor Mingde would choose the three princes, and in the expectation of the two of them, something would happen to the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet, which was also under the control of the two.
"If things endanger me then, please don't be afraid." Poured a cup of tea for Yunlan with his own hands, and Xie Cheng smiled and spoke.
"Mother's going to be fine." He tried to get Xun Yue into the palace, just in case something would happen.
"Just in case, it's already come to this point, don't affect the future for any reason."
"What if...... If something happens to you one day, so will I." Xie Ji looked at him with an extremely serious look on her face.
With such an expression, Yun Lan had seen it many years ago, and she had always been a person who would not change her mind easily after making a decision.
"Okay." Finally, he agreed.
"The wild goose has returned to Qiannan, maybe it is getting closer and closer to the truth, and this matter can still be discussed, but what do you think about the matter of the first prince?"
They have obtained the most crucial evidence at the beginning, but it is still uncertain when they will be able to uncover it.
In fact, the best arrangement is to wait until the Xie family and Jing Yujun have conclusive evidence, and it is safest to carry out together.
But recently, the undercurrent in the DPRK and China has been turbulent, as if a storm is coming, which makes people feel uneasy.
"Don't worry about this matter first, I always feel that there is a pair of hands stirring up the storm after us." Zhou Jinhui left Kyoto for Qiannan, which is indeed inseparable from Yunlan.
He had received information from the internal guard and knew about the two diseases, but he was still unsure who the other person was.
Yunlan once thought that maybe it was Emperor Mingde, in order to make the events of the year repeat, so as to get rid of the generals who made him jealous.
But no matter how you look at it, the Shen family in Qiannan can be compared with the Xie family back then, not to mention the team stationed in Qiannan now, let alone the Jingyu army.
Therefore, Emperor Mingde did not need to be like this.
In this case, the person who is hiding in the shadows is even more intriguing......
