Cao Xiyang instantly deduced that Liu Ruhai had no choice but to return to Prince Zhou's Mansion today to guard against her. Perhaps he wanted to leave on another day.
"Xiao Chu—if he returns to the palace, will he find that you are not here?"
Feng Xiaochu shook his head: "I followed your method and went to the Earth Temple outside the city. I stole a puppet you left there and became my substitute. She is in the palace."
"Okay." Cao Xiwan smiled.
Feng Junqing got a lot of puppets to ambush near the imperial mausoleum, trying to plot against her. However, they encountered another melee between Li Funing and Luo Shengji near the echo wall of the imperial mausoleum.
She took advantage of the chaos and controlled a female puppet and hid it in a cave under Zhongshan Mountain. She wanted to ask the puppet if Feng Junqing had any conspiracy.
But the puppet couldn't explain what it saw. She could only communicate briefly with the puppet.
She knows that the puppet may need treatment from the famous doctor Liu Ruhai. But she is not willing to do so. Maybe she can try again?
After she returned to the capital, she quietly called Mao Ergou, transported the female puppet back in a car, and hid it in the Tudui Temple stable next to the official road outside the city. Then Feng Xiaochu found an opportunity to leave the house and brought the puppet back.
Prince Zhou's Mansion.
Because Feng Xiaochu said that puppets can simply talk to each other.
Since Feng Xiaochu also had a substitute in Prince Zhou's Mansion, Cao Xiwan felt relieved: "Okay, we are not in a hurry." She threw the few winter coats she had just picked out from the box to Xiao Chu: "Mine, I haven't worn it.
"
Feng Xiaochu was on the kang and touched a thick, green brocade jacket. She put one on her body.
She looked at Cao Xiwan, who was wrapped in a red coat: "...I have something to ask you."
"you say."
"event."
Liu Ruhai swung his stirrup and dismounted in front of the palace, with a sullen face and said nothing. He pulled on his cloak and hat to cover his face, and hurried back to his yard through the corner gate.
The courtyard was filled with morning light, and there were only a few servants coming and going in the palace.
It was easy for him to avoid the servants on the road, especially the hidden stalls in the royal palace.
He walked into the courtyard without saying much and went straight to the west wing pharmacy.
I opened the curtain and took a look. The sunlight in front of the window was clear and shallow.
In front of the corner window was Feng Xiaochu, the female puppet in gray turban and gray robe. She was sitting quietly in the corner of the pharmacy as usual. She was sitting on a straight black lacquered armchair.
He frowned, and the little eunuch Bai Fu'er who was left behind heard the movement and hurriedly followed him, surprised: "General Manager?"
——Why is Mr. Liu back?
"She's always here?"
"Here." Baifu'er was transferred by him in the past two days. He found an excuse to get this person from Wang Laodang's house just to keep an eye on Feng Xiaochu. The little eunuch thought for a while: "I followed the order of the manager, no.
If you dare to be negligent, I even checked her pulse when I got up early."
Liu Ruhai nodded slightly. Even if the puppet's pulse condition is cured, it will probably be completely different from ordinary people within a year or two. It is impossible to pretend. Even if Baifu'er is unfamiliar with puppets, it is impossible to make a wrong diagnosis.
Bai Fu'er looked at Manager Liu. He heard what the manager said. He knew that the manager was suspicious of the Qingluo female ghost. This little girl Chu was the one sent by the Qingluo female ghost to treat her.
Last time in Zhongshan, the Qingluo female ghost fought against Mrs. Daojun. Everyone said that the Qingluo female ghost had obtained the secret treasure of the previous dynasty. But Manager Liu learned that there is a Qingyin Zhengqi art in the world that can control puppets. Since it can control
, maybe he can also make the puppet wake up, or even let the puppet be secretly ordered to be an eyeliner? He was alert, in case Feng Xiaochu suddenly became normal.
Liu Ruhai also pondered. He had seen many records of the puppet's pulse, but this was his first real contact with it. It was inevitable that he was not sure.
He secretly sighed that Cao Xi returned to the Hou Mansion at night, saw through his concern for the female puppet, and asked him to treat Feng Xiaochu's illness.
Of course, he couldn't refuse this matter. The real leader of the Yinlong Spy in the capital was actually not him, but a high-ranking official in the palace.
The Yinlong spy wanted to fight for the puppet with the Prince of Qin's palace, but was pressed too hard by Jin Yifanzi. He was worried that his identity would be exposed if he fought in the palace. Only then did the big boss know that he was helping. As he had this intention, he looked for an opportunity to enter.
In the palace, secret agents were mobilized to try to control the tiger and leopard rooms and elephant rooms in the palace.
And since he originally came to the capital to look for medicine, he had to guard against Prince Zhao, the Crown Prince or the prince, and the princesses were turned into puppets.
It is a rare opportunity to be able to treat Feng Xiaochu first. What's more, Feng Xiaochu's case is so special. She took several Tongtianchi Bizhu to regain her consciousness. Maybe he can cure her, and he can also control her.
Come up with a pill specifically designed to cure puppets. This is an opportunity that falls from the sky.
But he was not defenseless.
Just like Cao Xiwan, he was also on guard against him.
He was half cured. Cao Xiwan asked Feng Xiaochu to follow him to the palace to continue the treatment, and said with a serious face: "You are the only one who can cure me. Besides, you don't look too bad. Your character is not bad."
"...What?" It's rare that she actually admits that he has outstanding character?
"I asked Father Lu to keep an eye on you secretly to see if you touched the female patient."
"...Nonsense." He said, Father Lu had so many things to do, why every time he came to Lu's house to treat Feng Xiaochu, something suddenly happened to him.
Now that I think about it, of course Father Lu didn't leave. He probably secretly took a knife and went back through the back door to spy on him? If he saw him getting interested in his adopted daughter, Father Lu would be rude.
But he only diagnoses Feng Xiaochu's pulse, gives medicine, and uses needles. He is not needed for other things, nor is Father Lu.
Cao Xiwan had people invited to massage Feng Xiaochu, clean her, and help her walk.
He had no chance to be alone in a room with Feng Xiaochu.
Cao Xiwan was very defensive and invited two medical women from the medical clinic in Qinglefang early to let them stay temporarily at the Lu family. Of course Father Lu agreed. Even if they are father and daughter, it is the daughter who avoids her father.
What's more, she's just an adopted daughter.
Liu Ruhai thought at that time that it turned out that she had arranged two doctors and women, and she still felt uneasy.
"Do you think I'll get interested?" He wasn't angry either.
"Chen Ming knows how to do it, Chen Ming is a traitor! Men don't understand the word loyalty!" She was furious and said to Feng Xiaochu who was sitting aside, "Chen Ming is not good. Just replace him. Chen Ming wants to
You actually betrayed my good friend, do you think he can be reliable? He and I have been together since childhood when we were lazy and didn't practice kungfu and escaped from the yamen. He actually didn't help me when we were fighting!"
"..."
Liu Ruhai looked at the dumb puppet and then at Cao Xiwan, thinking to herself, is it not because Feng Xiaochu never escapes when he practices? Chen Ming prefers serious people?
According to Cao Xiwan's nagging, Lu Xiuyun often went back to the house to accompany the eldest lady. She and Chen Ming wandered off from time to time. Eunuch Niu gave up and quit midway. Isn't the only serious person Feng Xiaochu who joined the group midway?
Cao Xi would come to Lu's house in the evening to visit her future companion. She would pull up a chair and sit in front of Feng Xiaochu, with a fierce face, and talk about the time when a group of four would fight every day.
She also accused: "You don't run away every day. You are waiting for Dad Lu to praise you! But you don't really practice hard. I see through it! Chen Ming is a fool. You have wasted your good qualifications."
Liu Ruhai thought that this might be true.
He checked Feng Xiaochu's pulse and also carefully examined her inner Dantian. In addition to the fact that she swallowed several Tongtianchi Bizhu to protect her heart and mind, there was another reason:
Feng Xiaochu's Nine Transformations of the Netherworld reached the fourth level, and it was very superficial. But her first level, her foundation building was very solid.
It's not that she can't practice well, she's afraid that if she practices well, she won't get good results.
Cao Xiwan said with a tigerish face: "You are afraid that after you have practiced well, there will be an errand in the yamen, and Father Lu will let you stand on your own and not let you go home! You are afraid that you will have no father! But - you misunderstood, I like to live here
I didn’t go home when I was in the government office because I hated my father and my mother. It wasn’t that they drove me away from home to make me stand on my own. They didn’t dare! I would make a big fuss, huh, tigers are poisoned but they can’t eat their seeds. I would make a fuss with my parents.
I want to sell my daughter to a kidnapper again!"
"..." When Liu Ruhai heard it from the side, he was also thinking, how dare you say it when you threaten your parents with suspicion every day?
