Although the study room in the second hall of Henan Mansion lacks the luxury of an official house, the scattered pots of orchids clearly reveal the chief official's aspirations and style.
It's just that today's event is too important, and everything in the study room is filled with unprecedented solemnity. Even the "Qingchuan Snow Picture" hanging behind the desk is no longer as distant and indifferent as it used to be.
When Chen Wanglu saw Xiao Jing chattering away, he lost all of his usual official authority like that of Yuanting Yue Zhi. He knew that the miserable situation of Tongyuan Canal was a huge blow to him.
Just as he was about to say a few more words of comfort, he heard Xiao Zhan's voice without emotion or anger coming from outside: "Hong Taizhu, Mr. Xiao is discussing something in the hall. Please sit down in the Chuan Hall for a while and have some refreshments. Wait for me."
You pass it on."
Hong Taizhu didn't buy it, and shouted: "Let me in quickly! Do you know what important thing happened?! I am the messenger sent by the palace to deliver a message. If something goes wrong, even your ten heads are not enough to chop off..."
"Hong Taizhu, please don't embarrass me. If you break in like this, I will be guilty of an unforgivable crime." Xiao Zhan was indifferent and blocked Hong Taizhu from the door.
However, originally, Taizhu's official rank was several levels lower than that of Henan Yin and Shaoyin. A subordinate like Hong Taizhu looked arrogant when meeting his superior, which was considered unique, but he relied on
The power of Taiwei Palace is nothing more than that. However, today, when I encountered a serious person like Xiao Zhan, he had no choice but to stand in the Chuan Hall, helpless and furious.
"You really want to stop me!" Hong Taizhu was speechless.
"It is my duty as a lower official, so I don't dare to slack off for a moment." Xiao Zhan held the horizontal sword in his arms and still refused to give in.
"You..." Hong Taizhu was about to get angry when he saw Henan Yin Xiaojing and Shaoyin Chen Wanglu walking out of the second hall.
Xiao Jing looked kindly and said: "Hong Taizhu is here, and he is not far away to greet you. I asked him to stay here to prevent others from disturbing you. Unexpectedly, he bumped into you. Please forgive me. Since you have something to do, come in and talk!"
"
Hong Taizhu was still angry, but he bowed his hands in a polite salute and said: "Master Xiao, Master Shaoyin! I just brought a message for the palace envoy and left after saying it. The palace envoy already knew about the tragedy of Tongyuan Canal.
I have specially ordered this official to tell Mr. Xiao:
I, Taiwei Palace, went to suppress the Jianghu Rangers on behalf of the Henan Province. Although I was completely destroyed, my death was glorious! Now that the Zoroastrian monsters are causing chaos everywhere, my Hu Ben Guards' vitality has been greatly damaged! So three days later, I will intercept the Zoroastrian saint.
Regarding the matter, Mr. Xiao should rely more on others! I, Taiwei Palace, will no longer be involved!"
After Hong Taizhu finished speaking, he even skipped the farewell ceremony and turned around to leave. Xiao Jing and Chen Wanglu, who were left with stiff expressions, stood blankly under the Chuan Hall without saying a word.
After a long time, Chen Wanglu stared at Xiao Zhan: "Xiao Wuhou! You were used to being tyrannical in the past. As an official in the department, I naturally don't bother to argue with you. But things are different now! This Hong Taizhu is a confidant of the palace envoy. If you go back and talk nonsense
Nonsense, how do you tell Mr. Xiao to withstand the anger of the palace envoy!"
Xiao Zhan held the Hengdao and turned sideways, as if a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water. He completely turned a deaf ear to Chen Wanglu's scolding.
Chen Wanglu saw that Xiao Jing had no intention of scolding Xiao Zhan, so he could only cup his hands slightly, flick his sleeves, and walk away angrily.
Xiao Jing stood there for a long time, until the warm wind made his head feel swollen, then he turned his neck and saw Xiao Zhan still standing two feet away, with his back to her, like a stone sculpture. Then he said: "Zhan'er, please step back.
Come on down! Tell me to be quiet."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhan walked away decisively, as if he didn't want to stay here any longer. His back quickly shrank in the deep hall until it disappeared.
Xiao Jing smiled bitterly and shook her head, seeming to think of the stupid thing she had done several years ago.
"Pu Ling Leng..." A gray pigeon suddenly flew in from outside the eaves and flew into Xiao Jing's arms without any mistake. Xiao Jing caught it easily, first took the millet from the boss's secret pouch, fed it to the carrier pigeon, and then from
It took out the note from the small bamboo tube on its leg and put the pigeon aside.
After unfolding it, a look of relief finally appeared on Xiao Jing's face. The sadness between her brows gradually dissipated:
Duke Guo of Qi is indeed broad-minded, and he is not trying to draw a clear line with me. This Hong Zhiye adds fuel to the fire and deliberately provokes, and there is indeed something wrong with it!
The breeze in the courtyard is dry and the jujube shade is slightly cool.
In the Fang family's courtyard in Tongtuofang, Jing Xizi Tang Juan was waiting anxiously outside a certain guest room.
The doctor who was invited was examining Yang Zhaoxi's body in the room. Since she had to remove her clothes, it was inconvenient for her female relatives to be around, so she was invited out. Only Qiu Lao Er and Zhao Lao San were asked to stay inside to help.
Qiu Lao Er and Zhao Lao San are Qiu Chuan, the "Sky-Breaking Spear", and Zhao Sandao, the "Toutuo Crazy Stick" in the "Seven Heroes of Luozhong". The names "Lao Er, Lao San" are just seven sworn brothers.
If you are exchanging names with your colleagues in the martial arts world, you must report this resounding nickname.
As Yang Chaoxi's robes covered in mud and blood were taken off one by one, shocking wounds all over his body were revealed in front of the three of them.
As soon as the doctor saw the wound, he knew it was a knife wound, and he guessed that the injured person must have experienced a fierce fight. He was so horrified that he couldn't help but guess the identity of the injured person, whether he was a criminal thief that the court wanted to arrest.
Right? When he saw the miserable condition of his body covered with bruises and wounds, he couldn't help but vomit after having been through many storms.
Zhao Sandao's honest and honest face showed anger: "Straight bitch! I asked you to come here to treat the injury, how can you still spit out so much filth..." As he spoke, he picked up the stick and went to hit him.
Qiu Chu'an quickly stopped him and scolded: "Third brother, why are you so crazy! The doctor is an ordinary person after all. Seeing such a bloody scene, it is inevitable that he will not be able to bear it." He turned around and faced the blue-faced man again.
The doctor said, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter! You go on to treat my brother Yang's injury."
The doctor vomited and his annoyance subsided a little. Then he turned his attention to Yang Chaoxi again and carefully examined the wounds on his body:
I saw that his shoulders, chest, and ribs were all covered with wounds of varying depths. Some were just a line of blood, some were blood holes, some looked like minced meat, and some looked like...
His wide grin revealed the ribs inside... The most densely injured area was his arms, which were almost completely covered with bruises and swelling everywhere.
When the long and short robes were torn apart to expose his lower body, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Little Junior Brother Yang" was still lying down intact, without any injuries. The wounds were mainly concentrated on the calf and crotch, and the situation was worse than
The upper body is much better.
The doctor calmed down for a moment. The injured person did not have any fatal wounds. Although some wounds were still seeping with plasma, most of them had already coagulated. So he slowly pulled up his left hand and felt for his pulse for a while before switching to the left hand again.
With his right hand, he continued to diagnose the pulse, and he already had a good grasp of the injured person's condition.
"The injured person probably fell into a coma due to excessive blood loss, combined with... and overexertion. Just clean the wound with wine syrup, then apply gold sore medicine, and it will take some time to recover." The doctor stood up from the crescent stool.
Get up and be confident.
"Then you should wash it! Mother-in-law and mother-in-law are still standing here, do you really want to be beaten..." Zhao Sandao felt very unhappy when he saw the doctor's slow and leisurely look, and a wave of anger suddenly came to his head.
"This, this... I came in a hurry and didn't prepare any wine, gold sore medicine, etc." The doctor looked at Zhao Sandao's fierce look and couldn't help but feel worried, and he couldn't even speak clearly.
"Third brother! Don't talk nonsense here! These things are common, go and ask for them from your sister-in-law. Go quickly!" Qiu Chuan glared at Zhao Sandao and shouted angrily.
When Zhao Sandao heard this, he only got angry in vain and had to go out in despair. Not long after, he came back with a jar of "Wuyun pulp" and a wooden basin. In the wooden basin were several hand towels and already cut
The good white silk has a packet of golden sore medicine pressed on it.
The three of them didn't waste any time. They directly grabbed the handkerchiefs and began to carefully wipe Yang Zhaoxi's body. The wine wiped the wound, but it hurt as if it was corroding the heart and stabbing the bone. Although Yang Zhaoxi fainted, his body kept shaking.
.In the larger wounds, the skin and flesh twitched once or twice from time to time, as if they were alive.
After the three people wiped the front, they turned Yang Chaoxi's body over. When they saw the more hideous wounds on his back, they all gasped. Ignoring their sighs, they wetted their hand towels with wine syrup and quickly wiped them...
The three of them were very busy when they heard a "bang", the door was pushed open, and a girl with pretty features rushed in!
Perhaps the girl had never expected that the young man in front of her was naked, being pinned down on the couch by three men and scrubbing his wounds. She suddenly let out a scream. She hurriedly covered her eyes with her hands, and her pretty cheeks were already flushed, as if she was drunk.
man of.
Tang Juan's voice sounded outside the door: "Junior Sister Qin, what am I talking about? Junior Brother Yang is fine. If you don't listen to dissuasion, you must go in and take a look before you can rest assured... Now, are you completely relieved?
"
The girl is Yue Xizi Tan Qing, who is still immersed in shame and regret at this moment. Senior sister Tang Juan's teasing tone and those heart-piercing words made her unable to hold her head up, wishing she could find a crack in the wall right now.
It's better to hide.
Immediately after Tan Qing came in, it was Min Lingzi Zhuo Songtao and Yu Lingzi Huang Shuo. After the two escaped from Tongyuan Canal, they rushed south all the way to report this urgent news to the police as soon as possible.
Gongsun Guanzhu brought in some reinforcements and turned back to rescue Junior Brother Yang. On the way, he happened to meet Fang Qidou who was leading his troops, so he urged him to rush to the rescue.
However, the two of them were not at ease, so they rushed back to Linji Temple and informed the master of Gongsun Temple about the matter. As a result, everyone in Linji Temple knew about the lack of a cup of tea. Tong Chunxi, the son of Yuan Yi, was also decisive and ordered dozens of teas immediately.
Guanzhong Kundao, who was very skilled in martial arts, rushed to Tongyuan Canal with Gongsun Xuantong. When he arrived, Fang Qidou had already led the troops to recruit and began to search for survivors, collect the bodies of the dead, and deal with the aftermath.
.
When he learned that Fang Qidou had captured Qiu Chu'an and Zhao Sandao, and sent Yang Zhaoxi, who was seriously injured and unconscious, to the Fang family's residence, Tan Qing, who came with him, was immediately confused. He no longer cared about the girl's reserve and turned around.
Run towards Fangzhai.
But everyone in the Taoist sect knew that the tiger demon had arrived in Luoyang, and Linji's audience, Kun Dao, was even more prepared. Gongsun Xuantong was worried that Kun Dao would act alone, so he asked Zhuo Songtao and Huang Shuo to follow...
Hence, the embarrassing scene just now occurred.
Zhuo Songtao and Huang Shuo saw several people cleaning Yang Zhaoxi's wounds and knew that their lives were safe. They each took Qin Qing with their hands, took her out of the guest room, and closed the door again.
