Chapter 119: The Foal

"Why are you afraid of Pei Yunyao?"

The wind-blown medical books on the table were put aside, and Miao Liangfang leaned his crutches against the wall and sat down on the edge of the table.

Lu Yu waited for him to speak.

After a long time, Miao Liangfang touched his nose and said coyly, "Actually, this matter is also an old account from many years ago." ”

"Twenty years ago, I participated in the spring examination of the Taiyi Medical Bureau and became the only ordinary medical worker who passed the spring examination that year. I was only twenty-two years old at the time, and I was about the same age as your young boss. ”

"I was third in the spring exam, and none of the students in the Taiyi Bureau could compare to me. Later, I entered the Hanlin Medical Hospital, and soon after the edict, I was promoted to a medical officer, and the envoy of the hospital at that time valued me very much, and the nobles in the palace took me to ask about the pulse and medicinal food on weekdays. ”

"Young people, you can't help but kill, it's the scenery, it's inevitable to be frivolous. When he was young, he was also straight, and sometimes he offended people, and he relied on being favored in front of nobles, and he passed safely. It's been a long time, and I can't even forget my last name. ”

Miao Liangfang talked about the old things, and he was still a little uncomfortable, but as he spoke, he was gradually moved by the past, and his expression became embarrassed.

Lu Yu listened quietly.

"That kid from the Pei family, when I first met him, he was only eight or nine years old, and he entered the palace with his father. His father is Zhaoning Gong, he is the son of Zhaoning Gong, he is born beautiful, he is also smart, and he was likable when he was a child. ”

Miao Liangfang remembered that when he saw Pei Yunyao for the first time, he hurriedly glanced in front of the hall, the child was still young, but he had already excelled, wearing a rosewood vermilion finch pattern brocade robe, red lips and white teeth, a pair of eyes as bright as stars, and he could faintly glimpse the future style.

Such a noble child, life is as if the road has already been paved, and he can be clothed and fed without doing anything, and he will be prosperous. It's not like when they were young, they earned food in the mud and couldn't even afford a pair of shoes.

Miao Liangfang has subtle jealousy.

"Originally, there was no intersection between me and him. Later, late one night, people from the Zhaoning Mansion took a post to ask the medical officer of the Hanlin Medical Hospital to come to the clinic, saying that the house was in an emergency. I was on duty that night, and I asked casually, it turned out that the beloved foal of the Pei family's little prince had accidentally eaten poisonous weeds and was in danger. ”

Lu Yu raised his eyes: "You didn't save it?" ”

"It's okay if it's just not saved," Miao Liangfang laughed dryly, "I didn't go to the clinic at the time." ”

Lu Yu was slightly stunned.

"At that time, I was young and vigorous, and I was busy compiling medical books, and when I was upset, when I heard that it was a medical horse, I felt that the Pei family was insulting me by virtue of their noble status. I told the Pei family that I was a medical officer, not a veterinarian, and only treated people, not animals, and sent another new medical officer to Pei's family at will. ”

Lu Yu was surprised: "Mr. Miao still has such a time?" ”

Such arrogant words are difficult to connect with Miao Liangfang, who only promised to face Pei Yunyi and fled in the wilderness.

Miao Liangfang covered his face and wailed: "...... I must have had a water in my head! Either they are taken away, and they are really newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers, and they don't have enough enemies! ”

"And then?"

"Later...... Later I heard that his horse was not saved and was dead. ”

Lu Yu nodded: "So, he took revenge on you for this matter?" ”

"Not really!" Miao Liangfang hurriedly waved his hand, "I heard that he was depressed for a while about this matter, but at that time, the affairs of the medical court were cumbersome, and the ladies in the palace called me from time to time to diagnose the pulse, so I put this matter behind me. ”

Miao Liangfang sighed: "Later, something happened in the Medical Officer's Hospital, I was kicked out, and I didn't see him again." ”

"In that case, why are you afraid of him?"

Miao Liangfang was helpless: "For more than ten years, I heard that something happened to the Zhaoning Mansion later, and the Duchess of Zhaoning is gone." But Pei Yunyi has now become the commander of the front division of the palace, and he is deeply favored. When I was wandering around, I had seen him on the streets, and I had heard many rumors about him, that he was very protective and humble in appearance, but in fact he was ruthless and smiling. ”

"You see how poisonous his eyes are, I am now like this, my body is fat, my hair is thin, and I am lame, he can recognize it at a glance, it can be seen that he has cursed me in his heart day and night."

Lu Yu was speechless.

With her understanding of Pei Yunyao, she felt that Pei Yunyao did not have the leisure to do so.

"After all, it was more than ten years ago, and even if you go to the clinic that day, you may not be able to save his horse, maybe Pei Yunyi has already forgotten the old things."

"That being said, it's always a bit embarrassing to say goodbye." Miao Liangfang bowed his head weakly, picking at the hole in his trouser leg, "Back then, I was arrogant and self-righteous in front of his servants, but now people are mixing well, I am down to this appearance, even if he doesn't retaliate against me, I don't have the face to see people." Maybe he's scolding me behind my back right now. ”

Lu Yu: "...... Mr. is worried. ”

"But," Miao Liangfang picked at the hole in his hand and looked at Lu Yu suspiciously, "I saw him talking to you today, his tone and posture are very familiar, you are very familiar?" ”

Although Lu Yu saved Princess Wenjun's mother and daughter before, everyone in West Street knew about it. Pei Yunyao, as Pei Yunshu's younger brother, is normal to come to the door to thank him. But once is enough, if the medicine is given to the little lady of the Pei family, you can let the Pei family get it by yourself, why do you have to run it yourself.

And......

Lu Yu's tone of voice to Pei Yunyi did not seem to have identity scruples, and he could even be called unkind, which was a bit of his demeanor back then.

"We've only met a few times." Lu Yu said: "It's not familiar. ”

……

"You met Miao Liangfang?"

In front of the hall, Xiao Zhufeng spoke in surprise.

Pei Yunyi put down the silver knife: "Very surprised? ”

"Accident." Xiao Zhufeng said: "Miao Liangfang left the medical hospital that year, and he has not been seen for ten years, and it is rumored that he is dead, but I didn't expect to hide in Shengjing West Street all the time." ”

"What you should be surprised is that he is willing to guide Lu Yu to participate in the spring examination of the Taiyi Bureau." Pei Yunyao sat down in front of the window.

"Yes." Xiao Zhufeng nodded, "Not everyone can let Miao Liangfang return to his old business, this Doctor Lu is not simple." ”

Pei Yunyao sneered slightly and didn't speak.

"It seems that that Dr. Lu is your nemesis, everything you do, and the people you receive will hinder you." Xiao Zhufeng still had a wooden face, but there was a faint bit of schadenfreude in his eyes.

Pei Yunyi smiled, showing a little impatience on his face.

A plate of winter dates on the table was verdant, and Xiao Zhufeng pinched a date in the palm of his hand, "In that case, I just have something I want to tell you." ”

"Say."

"Something has been wrong with the Taishi Mansion lately."

Pei Yunyi raised his eyes.

Since the Gongju case, Fan Zhenglian committed suicide in prison, but before that, there were rumors of collusion between Fan Zhenglian and the Taishi Mansion, although this rumor was quickly suppressed and did not cause a storm in the court, but Pei Yunyi still made people pay attention to the movements of the Taishi Mansion.

The Ke family, the Fan family, the Gongju case, the Taishi Mansion...... Each one coincidentally appeared in Lu Yu's shadow.

He had a faint premonition that everything Lu Yu did was coming for the Taishi Mansion. But he didn't know who was behind Lu Yu and what his purpose was. Qingfeng has checked Lu Yu's details behind her back, she is like a foreigner who appeared in Shengjing out of thin air, sitting in the museum every day to practice medicine, and has no collusion with others, just like all ordinary doctors with innocent backgrounds.

Can't catch any horses' feet.

So he asked people to stare at the Taishi Mansion, cause and effect complement each other, if Lu Yu can't start here, it is better to find another clue from the Taishi Mansion.

Pei Yunyi asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Zhufeng sighed: "The Taishi Mansion has recently asked someone to inquire about a flat woman. ”

"Who?"

"Ke Chengxing's late wife, Lu Rou."

Hearing this, Pei Yunyao's eyes moved: "Ke Chengxing's wife? ”

The matter of the Ke family, after the Wan'en Temple, he had people check it. The Ke family fell suddenly, because of Ke Chengxing's death, the Ke family had no one to support.

Later, on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Lu Yu rescued Pei Yunshu's mother and daughter, and in order to fulfill his promise to her, Pei Yunyao promised not to investigate Ke Chengxing's death, and the matter ended here.

The tribute case, the fall of the Fan family, the rumors of the Taishi Mansion, and the subsequent various matters, the Ke family is just a small business, and the lady who died early in Ke Chengxing is more like a speck of dust that unintentionally falls on the complex carpet, and after being brushed away, there is no trace.

Ke Chengxing's wife has been dead for a long time, but until today, everyone has noticed that the real name of the woman who died early is Lu Rou.

"Lu?"

Xiao Zhufeng said coldly: "The people from the Taishi Mansion secretly investigated Lu Rou, so I went to the Imperial City Division first, and they reported faster than us, do you remember that in the tribute case at that time, there was a pair of Liu family brothers?" ”

"Yes."

It is not easy for the Liu family brothers to have a lowly status, but they can appear in the list of cheating in the field and have a relationship with Fan Zhenglian.

"Liu Kun, the father of the Liu brothers, was a prosecutor a few years ago when he sued a case, and the suspect he sued in that case was Lu Rou's younger brother, Lu Qian."

Pei Yunyi suddenly raised his eyes: "What?" ”

"Lu Qian was later executed, probably because of this incident, Liu Kun was able to board the ship of the trial court, as for the Taishi Mansion, most of it is related to this case, otherwise there are rumors. As for the Ke family...... He also sent a banquet porcelain cup for the birthday banquet of Mrs. Qi of Taishi Mansion. Xiao Zhufeng's expression was calm, "What you asked me to inquire about is all at present." ”

Pei Yunyi's expression was slightly cold, and he didn't speak for a while.

The first wife of the Ke family was called Lu Rou, Lu Rou died of illness shortly after she got married, and later the Ke family fell.

The complainant, Liu Kun, sent Lu Qian to prison, and later Liu Kun died tragically at the foot of Wangchun Mountain.

The trial court convicted and sentenced Fan Zhenglian to Lu Qian, and later Fan Zhenglian was imprisoned and committed suicide in prison.

One by one, the people involved in this matter have all come to a miserable end.

Next...... Taishifu.

No wonder she would disguise herself to blend into Yuxian Tower, that night Qi Yutai's birthday, there were few distinguished guests on the third floor, he was suspicious at the beginning, but he couldn't figure out the reason, and now in this way, the truth of some things will come out.

What Lu Yu wanted to deal with at the beginning was the Qi family.

Pei Yunyao sat in front of the window, his eyes were complicated and difficult to distinguish.

He thought about many kinds of Lu Yu's purposes, but he didn't expect it to be revenge.

Such a reckless and crazy, yet well-thought-out revenge.

Xiao Zhufeng said: "Are you doubting .......?"

"Her surname is Lu." Pei Yunyi interrupted his friend's words.

The reason why the people in Taishifu haven't found out any clues now is because Lu Yu has always been an outsider in this bureau. She skillfully kept herself out of the way, pieced together, arranged, and promoted the final result with seemingly unrelated coincidences.

The Qi family didn't know that there was a Lu Yu, so they naturally had no way to start.

And Pei Yunyi noticed Lu Yu at the beginning, even earlier than her revenge plan began, so the same surname can be easily linked.

"She's just an ordinary medical woman, and it's hard for her to do it alone." Xiao Zhufeng reminded, "Maybe there are other people behind her." ”

To do it so with the strength of one person, even they may not be able to do it, not to mention that her next target is the Taishi Mansion.

A small doctor who wants to deal with the Taishi Mansion is like a fool's dream, unless Lu Yu is crazy, there must be someone behind him.

Pei Yunyi didn't speak, and after a while, he asked, "What is the Qi family investigating now?" ”

"Relatives of the Chalu family. Lu Rou is a native of Changwu County, and her family is thin, except for Lu Rou and Lu Qian, there are no other sisters. ”

"Now?"

"The informant found out that there was a little daughter who died or was lost seven or eight years ago, and I haven't heard of it."

Pei Yunyi pondered for a moment, and said to the door: "Qingfeng." ”

Qingfeng walked in: "My lord." ”

He said: "You go to Changwu County in person, and don't let go of the news of the Lu family." The lost little daughter of the Lu family has been heard from for many years, and her appearance and habits in the past must be investigated. ”

"Yes, sir."

Qingfeng took the order to leave, and Xiao Zhufeng looked at Pei Yunyao: "Do you suspect that she is the lost youngest daughter of the Lu family?" ”

"Why can't it be?" Pei Yunyi asked rhetorically.

"It is not easy for a girl who has been missing for many years to survive. Moreover, even if she is really the daughter of the Lu family, she has been away from home for many years and came to Shengjing alone to kill people, it is difficult for ordinary people to have such a heart of revenge. I think, unless someone wants to deal with the Taishi Mansion and borrow her as a knife. ”

Pei Yunyi smiled noncommittally.

It is impossible for ordinary people, but it is very possible for Lu Yu.

I dealt with her several times, but I didn't get a favor in her hands. That Dr. Lu's vindictiveness is not ordinarily strong.

"Speaking of revenge," Xiao Zhufeng asked him, "You don't plan to retaliate against Miao Liangfang?" That's your favorite foal. ”

Hearing this, the young man's smile faded.

He thought of his beloved red foal, which his grandfather had personally chosen to give him from among the fierce horses, and that the little red horse was beautiful and proud, and that the brothers of the family had fought privately over the foal, but in just one month, the red horse had fallen in the night because he had eaten poisonous weeds.

He didn't remember if he wept, but he remembered the feeling of the red pony cooling in his palm as he held the foal. It was the first time in his life that he felt powerless, but he didn't know that there would be many such powerless moments in the years to come.

He lowered his eyes and said, "How can I have that idleness." ”

"Oh," Xiao Zhufeng was expressionless, but his tone was a little mocking, "I've really grown up and I'm open-minded, I thought you were going to be angry and fall into the well, so you don't hold grudges." ”

Pei Yunyao looked at him.

Xiao Zhufeng looked serious.

After a while, the young man sneered and said, "No, I have a grudge. ”
