Chapter 61: An Unexpected Visitor
The next day, Lin Zhiyu slept until three poles above the sun, and then woke up leisurely.
After lunch, the slightest sleepiness came up again, Lin Xiaolian replaced all the ice cubes in the room, and the incense burner was also rare to light incense to repel mosquitoes, and the wisps of smoke flowed out from the four mouths under the stove, as if it was a waterfall.
Lin Zhiyu shook the fan for a while, leaned on the recliner, and was in a half-asleep state when he heard Qiaoxiu push the door in and wake up softly: "Miss, Concubine Jia is here." ”
Lin Zhiyu was so sleepy that he was about to let Qiaoxiu pass away, when a string in his mind suddenly tightened.
Concubine Jia? Zhuang Younan?
She jerked to her feet, but her eyes were glazed because she was too fast.
"I said why the big girl didn't come for a long time, it turned out that she was lazy here." Zhuang Younan's hand was on Bao'er's wrist and he came in without a sound.
Lin Zhiyu rubbed his slightly swollen temples, and it wasn't until Qiaoxiu handed over the tea that his brain cleared up a little.
"I have doubts in my heart, I should have gone to find Concubine Jia, but when I came today, it would be easier." Lin Zhiyu's complexion was not too good.
As the saying goes, if you don't have anything to do, you can't go to the Three Treasures Palace, and she hasn't understood the matter of Xu Jiu'er and Lin Xiaolian before, so I don't know what tricks I have when I came here today.
"Coincidentally, I came here today to make a special trip to solve the eldest girl's doubts."
Zhuang Younan didn't see it, walked around the incense burner, then sat down, poured tea by himself, and took a sip gently.
"Good tea."
"Since you have drunk the tea, you should talk about it well, what is the prescription all about?"
Lin Zhiyu was a little anxious, and his fingers tapped on the desktop.
"Looks like you've guessed it all." Zhuang Younan's eyes showed some approval, "Yes, that prescription is indeed given to Liu Er by me, and this is also a bet between you and me." ”
"What you said was the prescription for bringing Xu Jiu'er back to life, but what you gave to Liu Er sent Xu Jiu'er to Huangquan Road alive!"
As soon as she thought of Xu Jiu'er's silent picture, Lin Zhiyu's heart ached, and she slapped the table, obviously a little excited.
Zhuang Younan was not in a hurry: "Life and death, death and death, the so-called liberation, is not a kind of new life?" ”
"You didn't try to save her life in the first place." Lin Zhiyu felt that he had been tricked by Zhuang Younan, and there was a depression in his chest.
"Even the medical saint is helpless against the poison, and you still expect me to have the ability to pull people out of the ghost gate?" Zhuang Younan sneered, "It's you, every step is unexpected to me." ”
He was eager to save people, but he missed Xu Jiu'er's life, Lin Zhiyu only felt as if he had suffered this dumb loss.
"So the bet in your mouth is Lin Xiaolian?"
Zhuang Younan didn't admit it, nor did he deny it, but said: "You also saved the day, didn't you?" ”
"Turning the tide of danger? Scold. Lin Zhiyu sneered, "That Xiaolian was hurt, what should I do?" If I don't think about it, I'll lose a life! ”
"It's just one life, inside the walls of this palace, brick by brick, which one is not piled up with human life?" Zhuang Younan's eyes were heavy, obviously still in his prime, but there was a dead air in his eyes.
Lin Zhi's words were silent.
Zhuang Younan changed his words, and said: "You are a smart person, this high palace wall naturally can't hold you back, and there is really another thing to do today." ”
She took out the tassel from her sleeve and put it in front of Lin Zhiyu.
From the appearance, this tassel is a few years old, and the whole body shows a gray and fluttering red, and the silk thread in some places has a tendency to be untied.
Lin Zhiyu suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart: "What do you mean? ”
"The people of the White Tiger Camp are not dead, this tassel is counted as a token."
The amount of information was too large, and Lin Zhiyu was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.
There is no free lunch in the world, such an important thing, for no reason, why did Zhuang Younan tell her?
The more you know, the sooner you will die, and at this time, Lin Zhiyu really wanted to cover his ears and remove this information from his mind.
"Isn't it too hasty for Concubine Jia to hand over such an important thing to me without any suspicion?"
Lin Zhiyu pushed the tassel back, and the meaning of refusal was self-evident.
"My younger brother Zhuang Xiao is young and ignorant, and he needs a guide before I can give him this object." Zhuang Younan's next words were even more of a bolt from the blue, "I want you to take good care of my brother." ”
So after thousands of calculations, I have laid out so many rounds, just to pick a suitable brother-in-law for myself?
Lin Zhiyu's eyes widened, it was ridiculous!
"Concubine Jia, I have made a marriage with King Jin, and it is really inappropriate for men and women to be on guard." Lin Zhiyu felt that Zhuang Younan was also a master who did not play cards according to routines.
"Lord Jin is not necessarily a master who can live a stable life, maybe he still has some secrets hidden in him." Zhuang Younan smiled, "All appearances are false, aren't they?" ”
Secret?
Lin Zhiyu thought about it carefully and found that he really didn't know much about Zhou Zijin.
He is gentle and elegant, well-behaved, handsome and golden, and he can't find anything wrong when he looks left and right.
"I don't have much time, if you have made up your mind, after I die, give this tassel to Zhuang Xiao, how he wants to use it, it's his business."
Listening to Zhuang Younan's tone, she seemed to be gambling on something.
"You've inspired me, and thank you for that." Zhuang Younan smiled bitterly.
Just as Lin Zhiyu wanted to ask something more, he heard Gonggong Zhang shouting at the top of his voice outside the door: "The emperor has arrived-"
Zhuang Younan silently put the saucer on top of the tassel, and after confirming that he couldn't see it, he got up and said ten thousand blessings.
Zhou Tingchen stepped in, not expecting Zhuang Younan to be there at all, and his footsteps were obvious: "Concubine Jia? ”
Zhuang Younan wore a thin skirt of bean green soft smoke for the first time today, and he also ingeniously put on a yellow flower on his forehead.
Her appearance is already good, and with a little makeup, she has a charm like a hibiscus out of the water.
Zhou Tingchen's gaze stayed for a moment, and then he stepped forward to help her up personally: "I haven't seen you come out and walk around for a long time, are you feeling better?" ”
"Thanks to the emperor, I have been sleeping well every night recently, and I no longer wake up as often as before." Zhuang Younan's head was still lowered, but his eyes were looking upwards at Zhou Tingchen, and he felt coquettish for no reason.
Lin Zhiyu got up and said very inappropriately: "The emperor is here today, but what is the matter?" ”
Zhou Tingchen then remembered the matter: "I heard that you were frightened yesterday, after all, you are the third brother's person, I should come over to see it anyway." ”
He raised his hand to signal behind him, and Grandpa Zhang stepped forward with a small box.
