Chapter one hundred and twenty-ninth successful apprenticeship
It was not difficult to forge some alibi evidence for Shangguan Wan Ning, and Zheng Binghong completed it quickly.
However, Shangguan Wanning and Xiao Zhenting had a grudge before, and Shangguan Yue had always been unwilling to stand on Xiao Zhenting's side. Both Shangguan Yue and Zheng Binghong were worried that Xiao Zhenting would use this incident to deal with Shangguan Wanning.
"I thought it would be best if Ning'er could find an excuse to go out and avoid the limelight."
Zheng Binghong's words were exactly what Shangguan Yue was thinking. When the two were discussing where Shangguan Wan Ning should go, Shangguan Wan Ning had already arrived at the eldest princess's mansion again to visit Sun Jinyao and Lu Xiangzi.
Sun Jinyao had regained consciousness, but he was still very weak from excessive blood loss. Lu Xiangzi sat on a chair nearby and closed his eyes to rest.
"This is the eldest princess's mansion. People from the Jingzhao mansion will not search here. Even Xiao Zhenting has no guts to come here to make trouble. You can rest in peace and recover." Shangguan Wan Ning poured a cup of tea and handed it to Sun Jinyao, comforting her softly.
While Sun Jinyao took the tea, he raised his head and looked at Shangguan Wan Ning. Thousands of thoughts surged into his heart. He paused and said, "Thank you. But...it's not an option for me to hide in the eldest princess's mansion for a long time. I don't want to be involved."
Someone else."
"Girl, you'd better think of a way to send this kid out of the city." Lu Xiangzi opened his eyes, looking a little tired.
Shangguan Wan Ning rolled her eyes and held her chin with one hand, showing a troubled expression.
"Doctor Deer, you should understand that although my father is the prime minister of a country, he must abide by the law after all. It is already a serious crime for me to harbor assassins. If I help you escape again, I will be executed."
Shangguan Wan Ning made a gesture on her neck with her hand.
"Forget it, don't make things difficult for Miss Shangguan..."
Lu Xiangzi glared at Sun Jinyao and stopped what he said next.
He saw a flash of cunning in Shangguan Wan's eyes, like a naughty little fox.
It's a pity that I met this old fox like him.
"Little girl, stop beating around the bush and tell me, what are the conditions?"
Lu Xiangzi stood up, flicked his clothes, and looked straight at Shangguan Wan Ning.
For the power of the Shangguan family in the court, just sending an assassin who has not been convicted out of the city, killing everyone, and scaring who?
"I want to become a disciple."
Shangguan Wan Ning knew that Xiao Jiujiu couldn't escape Lu Xiangzi's sharp gaze, so she expressed her thoughts readily.
"I don't accept apprentices, let alone female apprentices."
"You will not regret it if you believe me and accept me as your disciple. I am extremely smart and studious. I will carry forward your medical skills so that more people can benefit..."
"Okay, okay, stop bragging." Lu Xiangzi was a little impatient. He turned to look at Sun Jinyao, with a more complicated look in his eyes.
Shangguan Wan Ning didn't urge her, she just looked at Lu Xiangzi quietly.
After a long silence, Lu Xiangzi said quietly: "As long as I accept you as my disciple, you can guarantee his safety and send him away?"
These words made Sun Jinyao's heart sink involuntarily.
Lu Xiangzi seems...particularly concerned about his safety? Why?
They just met by chance, and he saved him when he was homeless and wandering around like a dog.
That's all.
"certainly."
Hearing Shangguan Wan Ning's affirmative answer, Lu Xiangzi gritted his teeth and seemed to have made an important decision.
"Okay, I will accept you as my apprentice, and I will teach you everything I have learned in my life. But we have an agreement first. You have to ensure the safety of this kid."
"No problem." Shangguan Wan Ning was very excited. She immediately poured a cup of tea and knelt in front of Lu Xiangzi. "Master, please bow to me, my disciple."
"slow!"
Sun Jinyao slowly got off the bed and said weakly: "You don't have to go against your will for me, I..."
"Hey, please don't stop me from becoming a disciple, okay?" Shangguan Wanning tugged at Sun Jinyao's clothes anxiously.
She also knew that it was fair and honest to use such methods to become a disciple, but there was nothing she could do about it.
In fact, even if Lu Xiangzi did not agree, she would help send Sun Jinyao out of the city.
Lu Xiangzi ignored Sun Jinyao and took a sip of the tea handed over by Shangguan Wanning.
Shangguan Wan Ning smiled brightly. After getting up, she held Lu Xiangzi's arm and said swornly: "Master, don't worry, I will definitely study medicine with you seriously in the future and be filial to you."
Lu Xiangzi did not show any joy, but just urged Shangguan Wan Ning to send Sun Jinyao out of the city as soon as possible.
After all, if you stay in the capital for one more day, you will be in more danger.
Shangguan Wan Ning told her father and uncle her thoughts, and they also felt that keeping Sun Jinyao was a hidden danger.
Shangguan Yue made an excuse to send his wife to Gusu City for rest, and asked Shangguan Wan Ning to accompany her. Sun Jinyao and Lu Xiangzi were included in the entourage.
When leaving the city, the soldiers guarding the city made a routine inspection. When they saw that there were guards from the Prime Minister's Office and the Yiyong Hou Mansion escorting them, they just asked a few questions and everything went smoothly.
The team walked in peace for several days. Sun Jinyao recovered quickly under Lu Xiangzi's careful care.
His heart was always vaguely uneasy.
When he could move freely, Sun Jinyao chose to leave a letter and run away.
He simply packed up and changed his clothes and left overnight. He didn't go far when he heard the melodious sound of a flute.
Sun Jinyao frowned and followed the sound of the flute.
He saw Shangguan Wan Ning dressed in white standing under the moon, playing the piccolo, with long hair and flowing skirts, like a fairy who had strayed into the mortal world.
"Miss Shangguan?"
The sound of the flute stopped suddenly. Shangguan Wanning looked back at Sun Jinyao and smiled sweetly. "Let's go."
"Go? Where?"
"Wherever you go, I will go with you." Shangguan Wanning came to Sun Jinyao and said with a smile, "I promised Master to take good care of you until your injury recovers."
Lu Xiangzi saw Sun Jinyao's letter and was worried that he would be in danger if he went out alone before he recovered.
Shangguan Wan Ning saw what was on his mind and volunteered to accompany him. However, Lu Xiangzi wanted to stay behind to treat her mother.
"No need." Sun Jinyao turned around indifferently.
"Whether you accept it or not, I have to follow you anyway. As a disciple, I have to obey the master's orders."
Sun Jinyao felt very uncomfortable when he thought of Lu Xiangzi's special care for him.
"I know what you are thinking, but I always feel that in this world, if one more person cares, there will be more sunshine. Maybe... you will have the opportunity to ask him the reason in person in the future?"
Shangguan Wan Ning tilted her head and looked at Sun Jinyao.
This playboy who was once famous in Beijing is actually not bad at all.
"I... don't know where to go." Sun Jinyao whispered.
"It doesn't matter, we go wherever we go. Just in time, I can travel around the lakes and mountains, north and south of the river. And, you see..." Shangguan Wanning opened the bag, "Master gave me ten books brought out from the cave. We
Studying and studying together will definitely not be boring."
