Chapter 173: Don't Kneel

The forest was silent, and the birds, beasts and insects were singing in the air.

Qi Yutai looked at the person in front of him who seemed to have been fished out of the blood water, and his heart palpitated inexplicably for a moment.

The female medical officer was bright red, staring at him with a pair of eyes, full of fierce light, like a ghost who was about to ask for his life.

Qi Yutai subconsciously took a few steps back.

The guards in front of him immediately stopped in front of him, Qi Yutai came back to his senses and said angrily: "What are you doing in a daze?" Don't hurry up and take it yet! ”

Lu Yu was already exhausted, and he was restrained by the guards twisting his body in a moment.

Qi Yutai ran to the gray dog under the tree and shouted in disbelief: "Capture the tiger!" ”

The hound remained motionless, its fur blown by the wind, and its body stiffened.

He boldly stepped forward and flipped the greyhound over, breathing suddenly.

The body of the tiger is full of sharp and sharp blood holes, dense and frightening. The dog's head was almost smashed to shreds, and the skin and flesh were so hideous that he felt disgusted after just one look at the miserable situation, and he was too busy not to look at it again, and a thought suddenly appeared in his heart: How could this weak female medical officer have so much strength? So brutal?

Immediately afterward, the shock was followed by a spontaneous anger.

The tiger is dead.

She killed the Tiger.

Such a lowly ordinary man killed his capture tiger?

How dare she!

Qi Yutai said angrily: "Kill this pariah!" ”

The guards on both sides were about to make a move, when suddenly, there was a large sound of horses' hooves, accompanied by a woman's exclamation: "Doctor Lu—"

Qi Yutai Huo Ran turned his head, and saw a group of horses running from far and near in the forest, and the female medical officer who shouted at the front ran towards Lu Yu quickly, and shouted in front of everyone: "Lu Yu-"

Lu Yu looked at Lin Danqing who ran towards him, and relaxed: "Why are you here?" ”

Lin Danqing ran to Lu Yu's side, saw her covered in blood, and was furious: "I saw that you haven't returned for a long time, and I still don't feel at ease, and I see the gray notes you left behind......"

She checked the people and horses of Yushi Zhongcheng, and when she confirmed that there was no more trouble, she planned to go down the mountain with Yushi Zhongcheng. Thinking about simply being with Lu Yu, he asked the guard to pass by and ask if the driving department had cleaned up properly.

Ban Wei happened to be an old acquaintance with Lin Danqing, and after asking around, she said that the driver Lang Zhong thought it was cold on the mountain, and ran around the paddock in the morning and went down the mountain, and he didn't stay that long at all.

Lin Danqing panicked when he heard this.

That person was not a person in the driving department, but he just coaxed Lu Yu away, and his heart was really suspicious. It happened that Chang Jin rode down the mountain with the prince's horse, Lin Danqing informed Chang Jin of the matter, and Chang Jin did not dare to deceive, Yuan Zhen suspected that there were traitors in the mountains, and when he heard the news, he asked Ban Wei to search nearby, but there was a traitor's whereabouts, and he wanted to find out the mastermind behind the scenes - the culprit who made him attack by a tiger in the hunting ground.

Huangmaogang is very big, Lin Danqing followed the direction of the escort who took Lu Yu to leave, and she didn't have much hope, but she didn't expect that she really found the gray mark left by Lu Yu in the end.

Before leaving, in order to avoid getting lost on the mountain, Lu Yu brought a can of ash powder used as a road marker, and Lin Danqing laughed at him that he was too cautious.

Fortunately in the misfortune, Lu Yu kept an eye on the guards when he walked with them, leaving marks along the way.

"Why are you bleeding so much?" Lin Danqing helped Lu Yu, "I have the Hemostatic Pill here, take it quickly-"

At that end, Yuan Zhen Lerma, looked at Qi Yutai and said, "Qi Gongzi, what are you doing here?" ”

Qi Yutai looked at the more and more people behind Yuan Zhen and scolded in his heart.

How could there be so many people all of a sudden?

He had been on the mountain, and although he heard the trumpet, he did not pay attention to it, because he did not know that the prince had been attacked by a tiger, and the hunting was suspended, and even the princes and princes who were nearby stopped hunting and rode down the mountain with the prince.

With his mind flickering, Qi Yutai arched his hand and said: "Back to His Royal Highness, Xia Guan was hunting in the paddock, catching tigers chasing hares, and suddenly heard the screams of tigers in the woods, so he followed, who knows......" He looked under the tree.

The bloody corpse of the greyhound fell into the eyes of everyone.

"Oh?"

The prince looked at him suspiciously, "The medical officer of the Hanlin Medical Court said that someone claimed to have been injured in the driving department and led away the Hanlin medical officer, how could he be with you?" ”

"Driver?" Qi Yutai was at a loss, "Xia Guan has never seen the shadow of the driver. ”

Lin Danqing couldn't help but say, "But it's true that the guards led Medical Officer Lu away, Medical Officer Lu," she lowered her head and asked Lu Yu, "Why are you here?" ”

Lu Yu looked at Qi Yutai.

Qi Yutai looked at her suspiciously.

After a while, she calmed down and said calmly: "I came here with the guards, and I noticed that something was wrong, and before I could make a sound, I was pounced on the ground by a vicious dog. Vicious dogs hurt people, and in order to protect themselves, they had to kill the hound by mistake. ”

This is very interesting, and Chang Jin immediately felt bad when he heard it.

Sure enough, Qi Yutai frowned: "What does Doctor Lu mean by this, that I deliberately led you here so that the tiger could bite you?" ”

"It's ridiculous!"

He sneered, "Not to mention why I have no grievances with Medical Officer Lu why I want to do this harmful act, since this Hanlin Medical Officer said that there was a traitorous guard to lure you away, everyone present at the time can testify, you and take a serious look, can the guards around this son have that traitorous face?" ”

There were a few guards around Qi Yutai, and Lin Danqing carefully identified them, showing a look of disappointment.

There was no such escort as the one who had just spoken.

A hint of pride flashed in Qi Yutai's eyes, and then he said angrily: "This son doesn't know who the person you are talking about is. But the reputation of our Qi family is not something that can be slandered at will! Besides, even if you don't mention it, the tiger is really killed! ”

When everyone heard this, they looked at the tiger carcass under the tree.

The corpse of the greyhound was turned over, revealing the other side of the flesh and blood, the intestines and belly flowed from the belly like water, and the hound head did not have a piece of good meat, and the white teeth of the forest were exposed, which was even more terrible than when he was alive and vicious.

Qi Yutai's hound is known to be vicious and untamable, more powerful than an adult man, not even a leopard and a wolf, and now he is dead in this miserable appearance, which is really terrifying.

Qi Yutai pointed at Lu Yu: "Capture the tiger, you will die at her hands!" ”

Lu Yu?

Everyone looked in the direction he was pointing, their eyes suspicious.

How could this effeminate female medical officer, who could be blown down by the wind, kill such a ferocious dog?

It could tear her apart.

"Is what Yutai said true? How could Medical Officer Lu be able to kill the capture tiger? Jin Xianrong spoke, still a little unconvinced.

He met the prince's horse riding down the mountain on the hunting road, and after hearing that a tiger suddenly appeared in the mountain, he immediately noticed that something was wrong, and followed the prince's horse back to the mountain.

Qi Yutai had a calm face: "Lord Jin, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it." ”

Lu Yu was able to kill his Capture Tiger!

He remembered her eyes looking at him, blood-red and cold, like a beast staring at its prey, all of them murderous.

Qi Yutai shuddered, and a thought suddenly popped up in his heart.

This woman can't stay!

He immediately made a decision, knelt down with the corner of his robe, and said to the prince: "Your Royal Highness, the tiger capture was given by the queen mother, and the jade platform was carefully raised, so that it has grown to the current heroic appearance, although the tiger is not human, but it knows human nature, is loyal and smart, and has been accompanied by Yutai for a long time, but now it has suffered from this catastrophe......

He was ashamed: "Yutai deserves to die for his crimes, he has not protected the tiger, and he will ask the Queen Mother for punishment for this trip, but he will destroy the things given by the emperor...... Medical Officer Lu is also guilty, please call the shots of His Royal Highness! ”

"Ridiculous!"

Without waiting for the prince to speak, Lin Danqing first became angry, "Medical Officer Lu has been bitten like this, and his injuries are not treated, so Gongzi Qi still has to be held responsible?" What kind of truth is this? ”

Lu Yu was slightly stunned.

I never thought that at this time, Lin Danqing would speak for him at the risk of offending the Qi family.

Qi Yutai was very persistent, and insisted on kowtowing: "Please call the shots of Your Highness." ”

Lu Yu killed his dog, even if it was just a dog, it was also the dog of the Qi family.

The bird was blinded by the bird's peck, he wanted to vent his anger to Qi Huaying today, he was waiting to see the tiger tear Lu Yu into pieces, he never thought that she was alive, but the tiger died.

How could he and the Qi family have suffered such a loss? Let this despicable woman know that even if it is a dog of the Qi family, if she is offended, she will have to pay the price.

He wants her dead!

The crown prince's position as the prince is unstable, His Majesty's attitude is intriguing, and there is an undercurrent between the prince and the third prince, although he doesn't know about the court, but he knows that now the prince and the Qi family are people in the same boat. Won-jeong will always be on her side......

Since you can't kill her with a tiger, you can kill her with Shengjing's law, and the great sin of destroying the things given by the emperor will be lost!

There was silence all around.

No one spoke, only the quiet wind seemed to carry the killing blood.

Qi Yutai lowered his head and swept his gaze over the woman under the tree.

Lu Yu was lying in Lin Danqing's arms.

Her robe was stained with blood, her hair was disheveled, her face was as pale as paper, and only her lips were as white as blood.

No, it's not blood, it's blood.

She bit the throat of the tiger so that the tiger could not break free, and in the end, she used a hairpin to leave dozens of blood holes on her body.

Shocking.

She looked at him angrily, but her weak appearance made Qi Yutai's heart flash a chill.

Qi Yutai kowtowed again: "Please call the shots, Your Highness!" ”

No one will speak for her.

At most, it's just a few pedantic medical officers in the Infirmary.

But so what? Ordinary medical officers with no power, no power and no background, in Shengjing, they will not be listened to, and what they say will not be listened to, and it will not work, just like people will not listen to the thoughts of ants, and they are even worse than ants.

"No."

Qi Yutai was stunned.

Lu Yu, who was lying in Lin Danqing's arms, also raised his head.

The crowd looked at the voice.

Ji Xun, the young medical officer who was always out of the crowd, stood up, walked in front of Lu Yu, half-knelt down, and carefully examined Lu Yu's exposed scars, and then bowed to Yuan Zhen.

He said: "Your Highness, the lower official has just examined the injuries of Doctor Lu, and they are all injured by fierce dogs. ”

"The Analects says: The stable was burned, and Confucius retreated from the dynasty and said: 'Hurt people?' Don't ask about the horse. The nobles are cheap animals, so they don't ask. ”

He bowed his head, and his voice was unhurried.

"The lower official thinks that the top priority is to treat the injuries of the medical officer Lu first, and then make other plans."

Lu Yu looked at him silently.

Qi Yutai gritted his teeth secretly: "Don't you understand Medical Officer Ji, this is a gift from the emperor......"

Ji Xun's expression was calm, "It's just a livestock." ”

Just a livestock.

These words fell on Qi Yutai's ears and were extremely harsh.

He raised his eyes and looked carefully at the young medical officer in front of him.

This Ji Xun is a bachelor in a family, he is a little arrogant, he has never been alone, he didn't expect to speak for Lu Xun.

His words weren't all insignificant, at least they were more important than those waste medics.

Qi Yutai was still unwilling, and wanted to speak again, but another person spoke: "That's right, Qi Gongzi, Master Taishi is compassionate and generous, giving porridge to the poor every year, accumulating good fortune, it is better to open the net, spare the Lu medical officer, and the Lu medical officer was also seriously injured by the hound, and he also knew that he was wrong." ”

Qi Yutai's face sank.

but he spoke to his father.

He looked at the speaker, the speaker's name was Chang Jin, a middle-aged man who looked very mediocre, seeing him, he hurriedly lowered his head, dodged his gaze, and looked very afraid.

Another untouchable who doesn't know whether to live or die.

Before he could speak, Jin Xianrong on the side also coughed lightly and whispered, "...... Indeed, it is said that this move should have been an accident, and I think that Dr. Lu was not lightly injured, and if it were not for the urgency, he should not have acted impulsively. ”

Jin Xianrong secretly glanced at Lu Yu.

He really didn't want to wade into this troubled water. It's easy to get a little closer to Qi Yutai, and you have to return to your original form because of these few words.

It's just that Lu Yu holds the back line of his children and grandchildren.

His illness is now improving, and his room surgery has also made great progress, and he is still hoping that Lu Yu can let himself go to another level in the future, if Lu Yu really dies, even if he pleases the Taishi Mansion in the future and sits in a high position, it is just a high place.

Thinking about it, the lower body is still more important than the second half of life.

As soon as he spoke, Qi Yutai's face changed slightly.

Ji Xun, Chang Jin, Jin Xianrong......

One by one, they all came to speak for Lu Yu.

He originally thought that Lu Yu was just an ordinary medical girl, but it was only by virtue of his appearance that he seduced Pei Yunyi, which made Hua Ying sad. But now it seems that she is much more powerful than he thought.

will attract so many people to speak for her at the risk of offending the Taishi Mansion.

Especially Ji Xun.

What did she use to confuse Ji Xun?

There was silence all around, and suddenly, the woman's calm voice rang out.

"The Law of the Liang Dynasty" states that all livestock and devouring dogs have a devastating and devouring of people, and the signs are not as good as the law, if the rabid dogs do not kill, they will be flogged forty; Those who kill or injure others for any reason are considered negligent. If the order is issued to kill or injure people, the killing and injury of the bucket shall be reduced by one degree. ”

The words came out suddenly, and everyone around her looked at her.

Lu Yu said: "Qi Gongzi raised rabid dogs to kill and injure people, and he should be held accountable for negligence." And I fought and killed vicious dogs, according to the "Law of the Liang Dynasty", there is no fault and should not be held accountable. ”

She looked at the prince who was surrounded by everyone, as if she was finally desperate, her eyes were gray and indifferent.

"Your Highness, please."

Yuan Zhen's expression moved.

His eyes wandered over everyone, and the prince had seen through Qi Yutai's lame drama. If it was in the past, he would have followed Qi Yutai's words without criticizing.

But Ji Xun was present today.

There is an undercurrent in the court, although the Ji family does not stand in line, but it is not an insignificant little person. Coupled with the assassination in the forest today, he was already not very interested, and when he saw Qi Yutai causing trouble to himself like this, he felt a little impatient.

"The judge is right."

Yuan Zhen spoke: "Although the Lu medical officer killed the dog, the hound hurt the person first, and it is excusable, but it will not be punished heavily." He looked at Qi Yutai and said with a warning in his tone: "It's better to take a step back." ”

This is a hint that Qi Yutai cannot be entangled.

Qi Yutai's heart sank.

There is no room for Yuan Zhen's words, at least today, he will not be able to get his wish.

So many people saved Lu Yu together.

The air was thick with blood, and for some reason, there was a faint pain in the forehead, and a nameless fire covered the heart, as if returning to the moment when the thirst and cold food were gone. Restless, furious, wanting to destroy all living things.

Trying hard to press the unwillingness in his heart, and then looking at the corpse of the tiger on the ground, Qi Yutai arched his hand again: "Your Highness speaks, Yutai doesn't dare to disobey." In fact, Yutai didn't want to embarrass Medical Officer Lu, but he just ......"

As soon as he changed his words, he had changed his sad expression.

"The tiger has been by my side since I was a child, empathetic, brave and loyal, and now he is dying miserably......"

The crowd followed his gaze.

The tragic death of the greyhound is chilling.

"Yutai asked Medical Officer Lu to take three heads at the capture of the tiger, and the matter will be settled."

Lu Yu slammed down.

Qi Yutai turned his head and looked at her as if he was very relenting.

He knew that this was wrong, he knew that it had damaged his image in front of people in the past, and even if he returned to the mansion, his father would definitely punish him.

But this woman's eyes were uncomfortable, and he couldn't restrain his impulses at all.

The urge to destroy the other person.

Anyway, they are all "their own people" here, and the powerful always carry each other out, and what happened today may not be spread to the outside world, even if it is transmitted, it is mostly "their own people" to testify.

The more arrogant the other party is, the more he wants to be humiliated.

Lu Yu clenched his fists and stared at Qi Yutai, and a monstrous anger rose in his heart.

Kneel, kowtow, give a dog.

A quarter of an hour ago, the dog had bitten her all over her body and almost died, but now the victim was going to kowtow to the murderer.

This is the most ridiculous thing in the world.

Yuan Zhen nodded: "It's okay." ”

One word landed.

Lu Yu couldn't help but want to refuse, but Lin Danqing secretly pulled his sleeve and met her worried eyes.

She shook her head gently at Lu Yu.

Lu Yu bit his lip tightly.

She understood what Lin Danqing meant.

Medical officials like them, whether they are treating officials on weekdays or entering the palace to treat nobles in the future, dignity is always the one who is not valuable.

They have to kneel down countless people, they have to bow their heads to countless people, what is their dignity compared to their lives?

Nothing.

Chang Jin seemed to be afraid that she would be stubborn, so he just hoped to calm things down as soon as possible, and urged: "Doctor Lu, what are you still doing in a daze?" ”

"Medical Officer Lu," Jin Xianrong also helped: "This is thanks to Yutai's soft-heartedness." ”

Thanks a lot.

Lu Yu only felt ridiculous.

She raised her eyes, Qi Yutai stood beside the gray dog, her eyes were faintly proud, as if she had noticed how humiliated she was to kneel and kowtow, and she became more and more interested, wanting to see her painful appearance.

The crack from being bitten by the gray dog seemed to be slowly showing pain at this time, and Lu Yu gritted his teeth with hatred.

Lin Danqing is right, for them, dignity is not worth mentioning, and there will be many people who will kneel in the future.

But who is this person in front of you?

It's Qi Yutai!

It was this person who killed Lu Rou, it was this person who caused Lu Qian to be reduced to a prisoner and abandoned corpse in the wilderness, his father was buried under the water, his mother's bones were gone, and the fire that wiped out everything in the Lu family was all thanks to him!

How could she kneel?

How could she kneel down to this enemy!

I hated it to the extreme, and my eyes seemed to be dripping blood. Lu Yu raised his eyes and looked at the crowd on all sides seriously, and there was no moment more than now that someone would stand up and rescue her, so that she would not suffer this sad, ridiculous, pitiful and lamenuous humiliation.

She's seen everyone.

Chang Jin shook his head at her slightly, the prince was already a little impatient sitting on horseback, Jin Xianrong frantically signaled to her to accept it when she saw it, as well as the second prince, the fourth prince, and many dignitaries and close ministers she didn't know...... There is also Ji Xun.

Ji Xun looked at her, his face was unbearable, but he didn't speak. Lu Yu knew that he had already spoken for her just now, so as not to worry about her life, which was already benevolent and righteous.

He can't say more, he still has the Ji family behind him, and he can't pull the Ji family into this troubled water.

The wind blows quietly through the dense forest, and the wind is quiet all around.

Lu Yu looked at it and suddenly laughed self-deprecatingly.

There won't be anyone.

In the past years, in Luomei Peak, when the pain was difficult, she had called the names of her family countless times, she thought that it would be good if her father and mother were here, Lu Qian was here, and Lu Rou was good, but she knew that they would not come.

That's it.

No one will come to her rescue.

Ordinary people are guilty, and ordinary people apologize, which is natural and righteous in the eyes of the powerful, and it is already very gracious.

Lin Danqing supported her and slowly stood up.

There were wounds from the bite of the hound all over her body, and the wounds hurt as she moved, and she walked to the corpse of the greyhound under the tree step by step.

Qi Yutai looked at her, his eyes full of malice.

Lu Yu's gaze fell on the corpse of the hounds on the ground.

The corpse of the dog was a mess, the flesh was blurry and disgusting, only the golden collar around the neck was still brilliant, showing the prominent identity of the owner.

The words that Lin Danqing had said to her before going up the mountain suddenly sounded in her ears.

"Look at the gold collar it wears around its neck, I have never worn it with such a color, this world is really inferior to a dog."

People are inferior to dogs.

There are powerful people on all sides, and high doors on all sides, only she is a small person in cloth clothes, lowly and ordinary. Even the dog on the ground was more noble than her in the eyes of those people.

Lu Yan clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

There seemed to be thorns under the knees of his legs, and every time he bent down, the more painful his heart became.

The harsh and absurd world fell on her back, like an irresistible mountain, taking her a little bit, a little bit shorter.

Inevitable.

Unable to break free.

Just as his knees were about to drop to the ground, a sudden sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded behind him, along with the indifferent voice of someone.

"Don't kneel."

Lu Yu was stunned.

Immediately afterward, someone rolled over and dismounted, and an arm came from behind her, firmly supporting her spine, which was about to bend.

She abruptly turned her head.

The young man must have come galloping all the way from outside, his robe slightly wrinkled, but his arm holding her was strong, and he helped her to her feet, and let her lean on him.

"Pei Dianshuai?"

After a brief moment of surprise, Qi Yutai's face sank, "What are you doing here?" ”

Pei Yunyao was in front of Lu Yu, still smiling on his face, smiling and smiling, his face gradually cooled, and his affectionate eyes also showed a touch of evil.

He spoke, in a contemptuous tone.

"I said, how can a man kneel to a brute?"
