I'm Liu Bei.

In the evening, Bai Liru came up with the medicine, and I took it and fed Zhang Fei to take it.

"I'll just do it myself. I'm embarrassed to be like that. Zhang Fei stretched out his hand to drink it himself.

"Don't pretend. You want to be fed by beautiful women, right? I asked her if she would like to. I turned my head and asked Bailiru: "Little beauty, how about helping to take care of the patient?" ”

Bai Liru sat next to me, her eyes flashing: "People have been boiling medicine for an hour, and their arms are sore, can you bear it?" ”

"I don't want Bailiru to feed, I want to eat it myself. It's just a slight injury on his back, but his arm can still move, so he doesn't have to make a fuss. ”

Bai Liru hurriedly said: "No." You have to be fed, although your hand is not injured, but when your arm moves, it is easy to pull the muscles in your back, and it is not good to touch the wound. The recovery of the back is already slow, and you have to pay attention to the. ”

"Come on, come on. Don't be shy, baby! Big brother feeds you. I scooped a tablespoon and drank it.

Zhang Fei's expression was very helpless, but he could only open his mouth.

Bailiru said: "I'll tell you a story, it's good to relieve boredom." Otherwise, I wouldn't know what to do. ”

Thinking that Bailiru was very knowledgeable about pharmacology, I asked, "Do you say that there is a medicine in the world that can control the lust of men and women?" ”

Bailiru's face flushed, and she pouted and gave me a white look. Don't think about it.

"Doctor Baili, don't you also have a medical theory that you don't know?" I excitedly said, Xiao Nizi definitely can't stand the agitation.

"Who said I don't know." Bailiru rushed to say, afraid that others would rob her. I found out that I had been fooled, and then I was silent again.

"Well, if you say it, I'll go play with you tomorrow for a day. How is it? ”

"Really?" Bailiru said in surprise.

The patriarch spoke, and he spoke with all his words. I'm just afraid that if you don't know, then you won't say it. ”

Bailiru's big eyes turned smartly, and she paced around the room with her hands behind her back.

"Don't pretend to be deep, if you don't know, admit it as soon as possible, tomorrow I will sleep in the yamen, these days can make me tired. I still have a little pain in my chest. ”

Bai Liru immediately jumped up to me, grabbed my wrist, and said with a smile: "I have an injury to my chest, but I am about to heal." Just rest for a few days. As he spoke, his fist hung down on my chest.

There was a hint of pain, but it was much better than the previous days. "Don't fight, if you fight again, you'll vomit blood and see God. Did you think of it? ”

"Just thought of it." Baili Ru stretched out his index finger and pointed at his delicate chin and said: "It is mentioned in the "Emperor's Internal Canon" that all kinds of people's feelings can be controlled with medicine. For example, if you want to cry, take a 'desolation pill'. I have it here, would you like to try it? ”

Bailiru took out a small green pill from her belt. "This one is, my grandfather taught me to practice it when he was alive. I quietly refined a few grains before I came out of the valley, but I don't know if I succeeded. Would you like to try it? ”

I took it and was about to give it a try. Then he said, "Third brother, why are there rats next to your couch." "As they turned their heads, I put the little pill in the bowl. Then he swallowed his throat as if he had just swallowed the pill.

Bailiru looked at me with her mouth wide open, as if waiting for my 'bad reaction'.

"Your medicine won't work. You see, I'm all right. Come to the third brother and drink the last bit of medicine residue. "I pounded the bottom of the bowl with a spoon a few times and mashed the pills.

Zhang Fei took the bowl and drank it all.

"Yay. Let's see the results. I laughed happily.

Bailiru's eyes widened and pointed to the bowl: "'Bleak Pill' was eaten by a? ”

Zhang Fei looked at me stunned. "Won't it?"

I said, "Do you feel anything unusual?" ”

Zhang Fei's copper bell eyes turned a few times, so he shook his head.

"At your level of refining, can you still refine medicine? It's terrible. I sneered.

Bailiru angrily shook her fist and smashed it. "It's all your fault, it's all your fault."

"What's my fault?"

"If the 'Bleak Pill' is mixed with medicine, it may delay the time of the attack, and it will also make the effect of the medicine lost. Medicine can't be mixed, do you understand? You didn't get it. Anyway, you'll have to go shopping with me tomorrow. ”

"You're so poisonous, just kill me!" Accompanying a woman on the street is really worse than death.

"What did you say?" Baili roared and stood up, raised his eyebrows, and glared at him with big clear eyes.

"It's okay to stay with you. I've answered the question first. Do you know? I didn't know, so I asked someone else to go. "I stood up and wanted to leave.

"Didn't I say that people's emotions can be controlled by medication."

"Including love?"

Baili Ru paused: "Of course." Otherwise, the "Emperor's Inner Canon" lies and deceives people. ”

"I'd like to believe you're lying."

Baili Ru said angrily: "Ignore you." I'm looking for a hundred miles of sword to play. ”

"Alas!" I sighed. This little girl is really good at tossing people, if I marry her, I will have a hard life in the future.

Zhang Fei said tentatively: "Sister-in-law, is it empathetic?" ”

"Shut your mouth! Hurry up and rest. "I was inexplicably angry.

"My lord, I've checked it out." Xu Shu stood at the door with a bamboo slip in his hand.

"Good work. The result? ”

"In the opinion of humble duty, only one is the most suspicious."

"Which one?"

"Jian Mansion in the north of the city."

"Come in, sit down and talk slowly."

After Xu Shu sat down, he unfolded the bamboo slip and said, "The courtyard of Jian Mansion used to be Jiang Mansion. ”

"Surname Jiang? Could it be—"

Xu Shu nodded. "It is the ancestral home of Jiang Dashun, whose whole family was killed. The house was built during the reign of Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty. The ancestor was the steward of Zhongshan Mansion. A hundred years ago, after King Xiao was cut down, the ancestor of the Jiang family also resigned as a housekeeper. Retire in the Jiang Hospital. After that, the Jiang family gradually declined. In Jiang Dashun's generation, due to the early death of Jiang Dashun's father, Jiang Dashun preferred to study and ignored the family business, so the Jiang family's property was left in this Jiang courtyard. ”

"At the end of last year, for some unknown reason, the yard was sold to a big businessman surnamed Jian. Strange to say, he had just sent a messenger to inspect all the shops in the county, and none of them were his. ”

I hurriedly continued, "It's suspicious. You go on to say. ”

"The owner of Jian Mansion has never shown up in the county seat, and even when handing over the title deed, Hu Cao said that it was the housekeeper of Jian Mansion. According to the people in the Tang Society, the housekeeper of Jian Mansion often came to buy wine, and made it clear that he wanted Zhao wine, and no other wine was allowed. And he never asks the price when he buys wine, and he often rewards the maids who sell wine. The lowly official personally asked the maid, and the least one reward was the same amount of money (one hundred copper coins). ”

"It's doubtful that there is no source of income and that the expenses are so large. There are many short-term workers in Jianfu, who are on duty and do things during the day, and have to go back to their respective homes at night. Therefore, the humble position believes that Jian Fu is the most suspicious. ”

Xu Shu's efficiency is really amazing. In just one afternoon, the intelligence of Jian Fu was collected so meticulously. It's really not easy, worthy of Xu Shu. It is conceivable that if he goes to Jingzhou to learn from Zhu Zhu and others, he will become such a powerful administrator.

"In your opinion, what are we going to do next?"

Xu Shu said: "We can use the killing of Jiang Dashun's entire family as an excuse to call the outside world a thorough investigation of all people related to Jiang Dashun." In this way, Jian Fu cannot be an exception without checking. ”

"It's a good idea. You send someone to inform the Jian Mansion that we will visit tomorrow. ”

"Yes."

Zhang Fei said puzzledly: "If we go, it should be a surprise attack, why should we announce it in advance, doesn't this make them prepared?" ”

I smiled and motioned for Xu Shu to answer.

Xu Shu said: "If Jian Fu is related to the murderer, I believe they have already been prepared." We raided and went, and nothing better would have happened. What's more, the raid shows that we have suspected them, and instead it is a surprise. We went generously to let them down their guard and make it easier for us to do things. ”

Zhang Fei said: "I see, haha, haha." ”

"Boss Xu, after a while, you go to the treasury to get ten taels of gold and buy some daily necessities. The first day you were on an errand was a congratulatory gift to our three brothers. I said, it's not my own money anyway.

Xu Shu immediately knelt down and said: "The grace of your lordship, you will remember it in your heart." ”

I helped him up and said affectionately, "We are colleagues, so we don't need to make this big gift." ”

"No, no, no! Adults are lowly teachers. ”

"That's not to be true. You go back early, wash up and rest early, I won't leave you to eat. ”

"Yes, sir. Retired from his position. Xu Shu bowed and retreated.

"Slow, don't you have a friend named Ergou, let him come on an errand tomorrow. You see which position is suitable and arrange one. ”

Xu Shu knelt down again and said: "My lord's humble position is really a grace of heaven and earth. ”

"Hurry up, please. Knowing people and making good use of them is the way to be an official. ”

After Xu Shu left, Zhang Fei said: "That Ergou is a little stupid, wouldn't it ruin the reputation of the Han officials to let him come to the yamen?" ”

Guan Yu suddenly walked in and said, "Big brother means to tie up Xu Shu." Big brother, according to my observation in the afternoon, Xu Shu is indeed a rare talent. With a person like him by his eldest brother's side, there will be a person who will pay attention to doing big things in the future. ”

Zhang Fei said suspiciously: "Xu Shu has such great ability? ”

I smiled and said, "This is just the tip of Lushan, his ability will surprise the entire Three Kingdoms." ”

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu said in unison: "Three Kingdoms again? What is Three Kingdoms? ”

"Huh? Ha ha...... Eat and go. I asked Bailiru to cook a few good dishes, and the three of us brothers ate him well. This avoids this inexplicable question.

After dinner, I went to sleep after studying the "Double-strand Sword Spectrum" in my room alone.

In the middle of the night, I was woken up by crying. I couldn't help but curse: "Dead! Is there an end to such a way of crying? ”

I just lay down, and my heart screamed badly. Leaning his head out of the window, the cry came from Zhang Fei's room. At the same time, I remembered that Bai Liru said that the medicinal effect of the "Desolation Pill" is four hours.
