The scorching sun was obscured by thick clouds, and the forest gradually darkened.

Lu Yu raised his eyes and looked at the person standing beside him.

How could Pei Yunyi come?

Qi Yutai's cold voice sounded in his ears: "What does the palace marshal mean by this?" ”

"Qi Gongzi doesn't understand?"

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he looked towards Qi Yutai, and the killing intent gradually condensed in his eyes, "I said, people can't kneel to animals." ”

The sarcasm in these words was heard by everyone present, and Qi Yutai had a calm face: "You! ”

"Qi Gongzi," the finger bones of his waist knife turned white, interrupting Qi Yutai's words, "The Queen Mother worships the Buddha in Wan'en Temple all the year round, understands the Buddha's principles, and is pure and inactive." But in the name of the Queen Mother, you let the evil beasts do things that hurt nature and reason, and ruined the royal reputation. ”

"Livestock is a light matter, but the royal name is a big matter. It's about the reputation of the Queen Mother, how can it be hastily done? ”

"I see," he said, "it's better to write and fold the imperial history after returning to the court, and talk about it seriously in the court." ”

The young man's tone was indifferent, and his gaze staring at him was as cold as ice, which made Qi Yutai tremble, and then, his heart suddenly struck.

This bastard!

I moved out of the Queen Mother before, and I wanted to use the things given by the Queen Mother to cure Lu Yu's sin. Pei Yunyao was even more ruthless, and even moved out of the reputation of the queen mother, saying that after returning to the dynasty, he would let the imperial history be folded, which was clearly to make things bigger.

Father is the most important face, in order to protect the face of the family, he will not insist on pursuing it, and he will definitely let him bow his head first. What's more, after the royal night banquet, Pei Yunyi was quite favored, and the Queen Mother treated him very leniently.

Pei Yunyao is clearly supporting Lu Yu.

Qi Yutai looked at Lu Yu.

She stood beside Pei Yunyao, and Pei Yunyao's hand held her back, as if she was protecting her in her arms. A face like gold paper, crumbling and frail.

It's very pitiful.

But he didn't forget the murderous situation of Lu Yu killing the dog just now.

This picture fell in Qi Yutai's eyes, and he felt more and more sure that Pei Yunyao and Lu Yu had already had a beginning and an end. Otherwise, he would not have supported Lu Yu in front of so many people, let alone confronted the Qi family.

No wonder it made Qi Huaying cry, what a pair of dog men and women.

Qi Yutai stared at the two of them, and his gaze suddenly became gloomy.

No one around spoke, and the undercurrent fell into the eyes of everyone, each with their own thoughts.

It was the crown prince Yuanzhen who broke the deadlock and said lightly: "It's just a livestock, why bother to make a big move." It's not proper on the hunting ground, if there's anything going on, it's better to go down the mountain and discuss it again. ”

The conversation was to expose the matter.

Now that he and Yuan Yao have not won or lost, the front division of the palace is also a favorable bargaining chip, and everyone wants to fight, at least they don't have to make enemies.

Pei Yunyao said calmly: "Naturally." ”

When the prince saw this, he pulled the reins, turned his horse's head and ordered the cavalry to go down the mountain. The people around watched such a scene, and the smart ones didn't dare to stay for a long time. The eyes of all parties fell on him, and Lu Yu saw the commander of the Privy Council, the Yan Xu who was facing Pei Yunyi in the forest road before going up the mountain, looking at him deeply, and his eyes seemed to have a deep meaning.

She knew very well that once the day passed, rumors about her and Pei Yunyi would inevitably fly all over the sky, not only Yan Xu, but she was afraid that the Medical Court and all the people who knew Pei Yunyi would think that their relationship was unusual.

Just as I was thinking about it, my eyes suddenly darkened.

Qi Yutai walked towards the two of them.

He seems to be extremely unwilling, but although he has a father who is a master, he is just an idle position in the household department with no real power, and there is no deterrent power for Pei Yunyao, who is already ruthless.

Qi Yutai glanced at Lu Yu beside Pei Yunyao, and sneered: "Pei Dianshuai is very concerned about the affairs of Medical Officer Lu, and those who don't know think that the two of you have a great relationship." ”

Lu Yu looked at him coldly.

Qi Yutai smiled again: "Rushing back in such a hurry, dare to ask the palace marshal, who is she?" ”

His words were neither high nor low, just so that the people around him could hear it clearly, and there were officials around who had not walked away, and they all turned their heads when they heard this, and their eyes showed a bit of a good show.

Pei Yunyao, the commander of the palace with a promising future, and the prince of Zhaoning, is one of the best in Shengjing City in terms of appearance and means, such a person will inevitably marry a noble girl in the future. Previously, there were still speculations in Shengjing City that the eldest lady of the Taishi Mansion family had not yet come out of the cabinet, and she might be able to marry the Pei family in the future.

However, today, Pei Yunyi did not hesitate to offend the prince of the Taishi Mansion for the sake of a humble medical girl.

The doctor has no power or power, only beauty. The color is a bone-scraping steel knife, Pei Yunyao is young and romantic, and it is not out of place to be angry at the crown.

What is out of the ordinary is that this young conductor is not married yet, and before he is married, he has an affair with others first......

That's not good.

The narrow gaze around fell on Lu Yu, and Lu Yu frowned slightly.

Qi Yutai had gone crazy suddenly because of Qi Huaying's incident, and Pei Yunyi's move undoubtedly added fuel to the fire. For himself, it was even worse.

If he was sensible, he should have dissociated himself with her at this time, no matter what high-sounding reason.

"Creditor."

She heard Pei Yunyi's voice.

Lu Yu was stunned.

Deep forest, lush trees, and murmuring water in the distance.

Pei Yunyi hugged her arm very tightly, and was illuminated by the sunlight shining through the branches of the trees, and her expression was blurry and she couldn't see clearly.

He said calmly, "She is my creditor. ”

……

A good hunt, and it came to an abrupt end.

Originally, the summer hunt was over, and after counting the prey, it should be rewarded for meritorious deeds. However, the crown prince and the third prince were both attacked, making it impossible to continue the hunt, and the summer contempt ended in a hurry. The prince and his entourage were accompanied by a squad guard and immediately returned to the palace.

As for Lu Yu......

As a little-known little doctor girl in the Medical Hospital, except for Qi Yutai, no one cares about it for the time being. But because she had been bitten by a vicious dog, her injuries were not light, and it was not easy to hurry immediately, so she stayed with the remaining medical officers in the camp under the hunting grounds, and waited for the next morning to set off again.

Lin Danqing also stayed.

It was already evening, the sunset was sinking, the sky was full of red clouds, and in the tent, Lin Danqing, who was wiping Lu Yu's wounds, looked at the hideous wounds in front of him, and couldn't help but look shocked.

"Sister Lu," her voice trembled, "why are you so badly injured?" ”

During the previous confrontation on the mountain, although she saw that Lu Yu was covered in blood and her face was pale, she did not show too much pain, and her expression was calm, thinking that maybe there was more blood on the bloodhound.

However, at this moment, when I took off my clothes and scrubbed them with water, once the wound was exposed, it was shocking.

It wasn't just a minor injury.

She was so frightened that she didn't even hesitate to bandage it, gritted her teeth and scolded: "Qi Yutai, that bastard!" ”

Lu Yu leaned on the simple low couch made of wood chips, glanced at the wound on his arm, and said, "Fortunately, I didn't hurt my face." ”

"When do you still have the heart to joke!" Lin Danqing glared at her, "You should be glad that you didn't hurt your throat!" ”

Lu Yu lowered his eyes and was silent.

When the vicious dog rushed up and pounced on her, she subconsciously protected her head and face.

There is an unwritten rule in the Hanlin Medical Hospital, and those who have a disfigured appearance are not allowed to be treated.

Maybe that's another kind of "decency", but at that moment, she had only one thought in her heart, she finally came here, and she couldn't give up all her efforts.

Now that I think about it, I only cared about protecting my head and face, but I forgot to protect my belly, if the vicious dog tore open her abdomen and dragged out her intestines, it would be difficult for the gods to save it now.

I am indeed afraid.

Lin Danqing carefully bandaged her wounds, bandaged and bandaged, and her tone suddenly became depressed.

"It's all my fault."

She whispered, "I should have been more careful when the guards led you away, if I went with you, maybe you wouldn't be hurt." ”

Although these wounds are not fatal, if they are not properly maintained, they are only afraid of leaving sequelae.

Moreover, there may be scars in the future......

Seeing her like this, Lu Yu smiled faintly.

"It's not about you, it's for me," she said, "it's not today but tomorrow, it's always happening." ”

"What do you mean?" Lin Danqing raised his head suspiciously, "Qi Yutai did it on purpose?" When did you offend him? ”

"Didn't you say that the Queen Mother intends to marry the Qi family and the Pei family?"

"Who knows if the gossip is true...... Lin Danqing's tone froze, and he looked at her in shock, "Is it ......?"

Lu Yu was silent.

She was stunned and said: "Qi Yutai, this madman! ”

It's just that he fell in love with a son-in-law, and the eight characters haven't been skimmed yet, and the Pei family may not be married to this kind of in-law, even if it is a royal family, they will not do it like this.

The Qi family dared.

It's just a bunch of crazy people!

After bandaging the last wound, Lin Danqing put on a coat for Lu Yu, sat on the edge of the couch and said worriedly: "This is bad, if the Qi family is really arrogant, you killed his vicious dog today, and you would rather die than bow your head, just afraid that Liang Zi will get deeper and deeper...... Unless Pei Yunyi publicly states that he will protect you to the end, something will happen sooner or later. ”

"It's a disaster, but what are you going to do in the future?"

Lu Yu's heart was heavy.

That's what worries her the most.

It was easy for the Taishi Mansion to deal with her, and it was difficult for her to get one step closer to the Taishi Mansion to ascend to the sky. Pei Yunyi can protect her once, but what about the next time? What about the future?

He can't show up every time.

You can't put your hopes in others.

After a moment of silence, Lu Yu spoke: "It's okay, let's take one step at a time." ”

The hostility of the Taishi Mansion came early, and when she returned to the Medical Officer's Hospital, she was about to face an even more fierce storm, but ......

But fortunately, some things have come to the point where they should have happened.

In the next few days, the Taishi Mansion should be very busy, so busy that he has no intention of dealing with her little "ant".

Just as he was thinking about it, a figure dangled up on the snow-white tent, and Ji Xun's voice sounded outside the tent: "Medical Officer Lu." ”

Lin Danqing was stunned and asked Lu Yu quietly: "Why is he here?" ”

Lu Yu shook his head.

When she was on the mountain during the day, Ji Xun's words for her were not only unexpected, but also surprising to Lu Yu.

If Pei Yunyao spoke for her, it was because of their past friendship, but Ji Xun and her are no different from strangers now, and the only conversation in the medical hospital broke up unhappily.

He opened his mouth for himself, Lu Yu couldn't find the reason, he could only attribute it to this person's kindness and upright temperament, so he would speak up.

Lin Danqing retreated with the medical box, the tent curtain was lifted, and someone walked in.

Lu Yu looked at Ji Xun.

He took two steps inside, still looking cold and cold as usual, his eyes fell on Lu Yu, and asked, "How are your injuries?" ”

It sounded concerned, though the tone was as detached as ever.

"It's okay, it's not too heavy." Lu Yu replied.

He nodded: "I took the canine brain, and you put it on the wound at night." ”

Lu Yu looked up in surprise.

It is recorded in a medical book that "if you are bitten by a dog, you will be bitten by a dog, and if you don't send it for three or seven days, you will be taken off, and it will be a great exemption after 100 days." ”

If you use the phrase "kill the dog that bites, take the brain and compress it, and it will not recur." ”

The reason why Lu Yu is not worried is because after listening to Lin Danqing's words, although the mad dog of the Qi family bites, there is no old case of being afraid of water and dying soon after biting, so it is not dangerous.

On the other hand, she also has other medicines to prevent this from happening.

But I didn't expect Ji Xun to go and get the gray dog's brain.

Qi Yutai regards the mad dog as a jewel, and he is already very angry when he dies in her hands, and he is unwilling to use the gray dog brain to drug himself, Ji Xun's move is bound to offend Qi Yutai.

Lu Yu asked, "Will Gongzi Qi agree?" ”

"He doesn't know yet." Ji Xun replied, "No one took care of the dog corpse, I took it myself." ”

Lu Yu's eyes widened in astonishment, as if he knew this person for the first time.

But he was calm, as if he didn't know how much this move ruined his image as a humble gentleman, so he only said to himself: "I have seen the wounds on the body of the dog corpse, the neck vein, Tianmen, Lung Yu, Xinyu, Tianshu, Baihui...... You're very accurate. ”

Lu Yu calmly replied: "Naturally, I only reviewed the acupuncture point diagram three days ago. ”

"It's different from touching on paper," Ji Xun looked puzzled, "Mr. Taiyi may not be as accurate as you are in the investigation." ”

Decisive and clean, and the way is hit, even if an ordinary doctor has such a vision and technique, it is impossible to be so calm in a critical situation.

Panic is a human instinct.

Lu Yu looked at him calmly: "Medical Officer Ji seems to have forgotten that I am the first on the red list of the spring examination of the Taiyi Bureau, so naturally it is not all based on praise, there is always something outstanding." ”

Ji Xun was stunned, and seemed to remember her previous words of mocking her with the red list of the spring test, and couldn't help but blush.

Seeing him like this, Lu Yu turned his head and frowned, as if he was being pulled out of pain by the wound, and let out a soft "hiss-" sound.

Ji Xun raised her eyes and saw a shallow scratch on her left cheek near her neck.

It was probably scratched by the gray dog, the wound was not deep, only one layer was brushed, but it was like a crack on the snow-white porcelain, which was particularly dazzling.

After a moment of silence, he took out a medicine bottle from his sleeve and put it on the table.

"The Immortal Jade Muscle Cream of the Imperial Medicine Academy. You have too many wounds, and if you don't take care of them carefully, you will inevitably get scars. ”

Lu Yu was a little surprised, and listened to him again: "You have a good rest." It is not advisable to move around these days, and you don't have to come to the medical hospital first after returning to the city. ”

After a moment of silence, Lu Yu nodded: "Thank you." ”

He instructed a few more words about medication, and Lu Yu responded one by one. He did not leave the camp until the last red light of the sunset in the forest disappeared from the forest.

After he left, Lu Yu looked at the small medicine bottle on the table.

The medicine bottle is exquisite, a small bottle, she saw it once when she was in the South Pharmacy, it is a good scar medicine in the Imperial Pharmacy, the material is precious, and it is used by nobles in the palace, she once heard He Xiu say that a bottle is very expensive.

I didn't expect Ji Xun to take it out.

……

It's getting late.

Most of the guards and princes had already returned to the city, except for a few medical officers, wounded janissaries, and a few servants who remained in their tents outside the enclosure to wait for their departure early tomorrow morning.

The aristocrats said they could go, but it was not convenient for the hawkers who followed them to run.

In particular, the hawkers who sold cooked food had set up a boiler and a hot stove at this end, and had intended to make a fortune in the market tonight, but now that the cavalry had left, there were only three or three servants left to move around, but it was not convenient to move around, so they could only continue to spread out in the woods, pushing the carts with lanterns, and shouting loudly.

There are still dozens of white tents that have not been put away in these places, and there are nearly 100 people left, although they are not as crowded as in previous years, decorating this forest night market with a bit of liveliness.

Lin Danqing also went out to buy cooked food, Lu Yu stayed in the tent alone, listened to the slightly noisy voices outside, lifted the thin blanket on his body, and got up from the couch to stand up.

As soon as he moved, the leg wound involved pain, Lu Yu's eyebrows frowned, and it calmed down for a while before settling down.

She leaned on the edge of the tent and moved little by little to the table.

The wound from the bite of a vicious dog slowly began to dissipate after the medicine was applied. Her head and face were not injured much, and her abdomen was well protected, most of them were scratching and biting on all fours, and they all avoided the vital points, and the most seriously injured was her left arm, because she was in a hurry and stuffed a whole arm into the mouth of a vicious dog, and the canine teeth were almost all gone, as if injured by a sharp knife.

There is a "window" next to the white tent table, a small curtain tent that can be rolled up, and Lu Yu rolls up the tent.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, a cool night breeze suddenly blew in from outside.

She looked out the window.

Not far away, the thin, winding river ditch in the paddock forest was all lit up at this time, and the tiny dusk of the forest illuminated the water, making the night under the paddock bright and vivid, and the sound of bargaining wafted from the night market.

"Yo, this thin soso jelly is very finely cut, let's have a bowl! Add more sesame seeds! ”

"Okay! It's hot, so the guest might as well have some mustard melons and taste it refreshing! ”

"Okay, add another sugar bean, and give me a cheaper ......"

The noisy sound fell in the forest, and without the luxury of riding a car, the night of Huangmaogang showed a more simple reality.

Lu Yu listened carefully for a while, and slowly sat down on the table.

As soon as she turned her head, she suddenly remembered that the medicine that Lin Danqing had boiled for her hadn't been drunk yet, and it should have been cold after being left for a long time, so she turned around.

She didn't want to get up and walk over again, the wound on her leg should not be moved, and she felt reluctant in just a few steps, so she leaned over to the low table of wood beside the couch.

It wasn't far away, but the bowl was placed very far inside, and she leaned over with difficulty, her fingers barely touching the edge of the bowl, trying to pull it closer to her.

A hand reached out from behind her and picked up the medicine bowl for her.

Lu Yu paused.

Pei Yunyi put the medicine bowl on the table, and reached out to support her back to let her sit at the table, only to look at her with a slight frown, and said, "It's not for you to rest on the bed, why do you run around at will?" ”

Lu Yu was stunned.

The brown potion rippled slightly in the shadow of the candle, and he sat down at the table and pushed the medicine bowl towards Lu Yu.

Lu Yu looked down at the medicine bowl and subconsciously asked, "Why didn't you leave?" ”

Long Wuwei, except for a few injured, all followed the prince and his party back to the city, Pei Yunyi, as the commander of the front division of the palace, how could he still stay here?

He said, "I am also injured, of course I have to stay and heal." ”

Wounded?

Lu Yu suddenly remembered that he seemed to have heard Lin Danqing say that the third prince was assassinated in the forest, and Pei Yunyao protected him down the mountain.

At that time, he stopped Qi Yutai's humiliation, as the commander of the front of the palace, he had to drive down the mountain with the prince, and she was often brought back to the camp by Lin Danqing, and she never saw Pei Yunyao again. At that time, Pei Yunyi looked calm and behaved as usual, and there were no signs of injury.

As if sensing what she was thinking, Pei Yunyi explained: "A little injury, Chang Jin has dealt with it for me." It's you. He was silent for a moment, and looked at her with a solemn gaze, "It's not lightly hurt." ”

Lu Yu was silent.

Actually, it's not very heavy.

She lowered her eyes, picked up the medicine bowl and brought it to her lips, the medicine soup was almost cold, Lin Danqing deliberately boiled it for a while, it was bitter and bitter, she lowered her head and drank the medicine in the bowl in one breath, before she put down the bowl, and a piece of paper wrapped in flowers appeared in front of her.

Pei Yunyi handed over a piece of candy.

After a pause, Lu Yu took the candy and held it in his palm, faintly heard the noise of the night market in the distance coming from the wind, and after a while, she spoke: "You shouldn't come forward today." ”

Pei Yunyao looked at her quietly.

"The Qi family wants to win you over," her voice was calm, "Everyone is watching, you are going toe-for-tat with him, making Qi Yutai lose face." After that, I will hold a grudge against you. ”

"With the shrewdness of the palace marshal, you shouldn't do this rash move."

"I don't understand ......"

Lu Yu slowly raised his eyes: "Why did the palace marshal help me?" ”

Although Pei Yunyi's whereabouts are mysterious, Lu Yu can also faintly perceive what he is planning and cannot be detected by outsiders. Just like herself, putting the contradictions on the surface too early will do her own harm rather than good.

For these powerful people, she just swallowed three heads, and she didn't feel pain, but the vicious dog lost a life, no matter how you look at it, she took a big advantage.

Even she herself was about to accept her fate, and she had decided to admit this inevitable humiliation, but he stood up at that time.

The moonlight was cool, and the tent was swaying in dusk.

He looked at her, and his tone was a little inexplicable: "You are thoughtful for me." ”

Lu Yu was silent.

"Didn't I say that? You are my creditor. ”

Creditors?

Lu Yu was a little confused.

Is this the debt she had to save Pei Yunshu's mother and daughter?

But the debt of affection had already been squandered in the miscellaneous matters that followed, and after that...... He didn't owe her any favors.

The wind shook the shadow of the moon, and countless flowing moonlight rushed in, blowing the faint lights and candles on the table.

He stretched out his hand, the silver scissors fiddled with the wick, and said nonchalantly: "It's a little troublesome." ”

"But ......"

"The kindness of the deceased is unforgettable."

Lu Yu was stunned, suddenly realized something, and looked at Pei Yunyao suddenly.

Not far away, in the Heliang Night Market under the forest, the smoke and water are faint, and the silk yarn is bright. The young man sat in his tent, the moonlight behind him as the curtain was lifted. And a silver ring that he was holding in his fingertips fell into her eyes without warning and unexpectedly.

It was an old blackened ring, rough silver, mottled and blurred, and it was dimly illuminated by the candlelight, showing a bit of the tenderness of the past.

Lu Yu's heart trembled.

The young man sat quietly, the residual lamp illuminated his handsome eyebrows and eyes, and his eyes were silent when he looked at Lu Yu, not knowing whether he was happy or sad.

He looked at her, "Isn't it, Seventeen Girl?" ”
