Dianxia Qingcheng

Shen Jiujiu was taken aback by this apology that was as strong as a rainbow, and his eyes widened, looking at the few people in front of him.

That year, the man smiled at Shen Jiujiu, "Young master, the dog was really offended yesterday. He was spoiled by the old man at home, so please don't take it to heart."

In fact, after Pei Zheng vented his anger on him last night, Shen Jiujiu stopped being angry, and even felt that the fat man was pitiful, and his fingers were broken by adults.

"It's okay, I accidentally bumped into him first, I should be the one apologizing..."

"Hey, don't say that. I've heard a little about what he looks like outside. I've already taught him a good lesson. I won't dare to commit another crime after I take care of him."

The man was very kind and amiable back then, which made Shen Jiu feel a little embarrassed.

After saying many more words of apology, the fat man bowed deeply to Shen Jiujiu several times, and then was taken away by the young man by his collar.

Shen Jiujiu walked towards his own wing and asked Li Yu, the housekeeper beside him.

"Butler Li, is that fat man's family very powerful?"

Li Yu gave him a strange look.

As a member of the Prime Minister's Mansion, you can really walk sideways in this imperial capital. Do you need to worry about whether the people in the family are strong or not?

But since Shen Jiujiu asked, Li Yu patiently told him.

"The dignified young man just now was a deputy general guarding the frontier before, and he belonged to the general of Zhenyuan Zhao Litang. He came to the imperial capital later and became the leader of the Imperial Guard."

He paused, "Well, there is some power, it's more than enough to frighten the common people, but our prime minister's mansion still doesn't like it."

"Oh, so it looks like this, so what about the general? Is he powerful?"

Li Yu looked sideways, "You mean General Zhao?"

Shen Nineteen nodded.

Li Yu lowered his voice, "Shh, we are not allowed to discuss that person in the prime minister's office."

Shen Jiujiu also asked softly, "Why?"

Li Yu frowned, "What are you doing asking so many questions, just do your job well. It's getting late, shouldn't it be time to deliver medicine to the two princesses?"

Shen Jiu patted his head, "Yes! I almost forgot if you didn't tell me!"

He hurried back to the wing room.

Fortunately, Zhou Wu had already prepared the decoction for the second princess Qi Bingzhi and sent it over, so Shen Jiujiu went to deliver the medicine to Qi Yirou.

Qi Yirou's knee seemed to be better, but the situation was still worse than before. Shen Jiujiu thought of many ways to heal her leg, but found that he was still powerless.

It would be great if the master was here, maybe the master will have a way.

Shen Jiujiu watched as Qi Yirou finished drinking the medicine, then took some ointment, and carefully applied it to her injured knee.

After painting, when he looked up, he saw Qi Yirou's eyes glistening with tears.

Qi Yirou turned her face away in embarrassment to wipe away tears, Shen Jiu quickly looked at the ground, the table and chairs, and then secretly looked at Qi Yirou from the corner of her eye.

"What are you looking at, I have sand in my eyes, can't I!"

Shen Jiujiu muttered, "But there is no sand here..."

"Yes!" Qi Yirou shouted at him, "I say yes!"

Shen Jiujiu nodded in agreement with her, "Yes, yes, yes, Her Royal Highness is right, there is!"

Qi Yirou was amused by his sincere tone and laughed through tears.

Shen Jiu couldn't help laughing too, and the two of them laughed together for a long time inexplicably before stopping.

Qi Yirou asked him, "Aren't you from the Tai Hospital, how long are you going to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Shen Jiujiu said, "I don't know either."

"Then, the second princess's headache, have you thought of a way to cure it?"

When Shen Jiu pouted when he mentioned this question, his face was full of sorrow, and his chin rested on the table.

"No, it's so difficult, I won't..."

Qi Yirou comforted him and said, "It's okay, there are so many difficult diseases in the world, even if you are a ghost doctor, you can't guarantee that they can cure all of them, right? So just do your best, don't be too sad."

Seeing that Shen Shijiu's small face still couldn't be stretched, Qi Yirou simply said, "I'm so hungry, I'll send someone to bring some pastries, you can eat with me, okay?" Shen Jiujiu reluctantly nodded .

After a while, the maid who delivered the cakes knocked on the door and came in, bringing a small plate of exquisite pineapple cakes, sweet-scented osmanthus cakes and flower cakes.

Shen Jiujiu had never eaten these small pastries. After eating a piece, the sweet and glutinous taste was very good, and he fell in love with it immediately.

Qi Yirou watched him eating happily, temporarily forgot about his troubles, and felt that his mood got better.

She asked the little maid, "How is the second princess today?"

The little maid was very respectful, "Go back to the third princess, the second princess is not at the house today."

"Not at the residence?" Qi Yirou was curious, "Where did you go?"

"Following the adults, I left the mansion not long ago, saying that I want to enter the palace."

Qi Yirou understood, "Okay, you can go down."

——Shen Jiujiu, who was eating beside him, actually had his ears pricked up the whole time, and had already heard their conversation. He endured it for a long time, and he couldn't help it anymore.

"Your Highness, my lord, has he also entered the palace today?"

Qi Yirou looked at him with a funny face, picked up a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth, "Didn't you hear it all, and you still ask me what I do?"

"Oh." Shen Jiu's obvious mood fell again, Cang pulled her face, and put the pastry aside and didn't eat any more.

Qi Yirou had no choice but to pick up a piece of pastry and stuff it into his hand, "Yes, I'm going to the palace. Although I went with the second princess, don't worry, I guarantee that there will be nothing between them."

Shen Jiujiu blinked, and looked at Qi Yirou in puzzlement.

Qi Yirou unhurriedly poured a glass of water and took a sip before explaining to Shen Jiujiu.

"I knew before that the emperor will hold a banquet in the palace these few days, and invite everyone in the harem and the officials of the former court to attend the banquet. The purpose is to welcome the barbarian leader, Amul, who came from a long way from the barbarian tribe."

"Amul, what a strange name."

"The names of their barbarians are all like this." Qi Yirou is not surprised, "This banquet will be held for three days, so Mr. Pei estimates that he will often enter the palace during these three days. Also, the second princess is still You must attend as the princess and the empress's daughter-in-law."

Qi Yirou looked at Shen Jiujiu, "Do you know what this means?"

Shen Shijiu thought hard for a while, then shook his head, "I don't know."

"Stupid, it means that she is not Mrs. Pei's wife, and that Qi Bingzhi and Pei Zheng have nothing to do with her."

Shen Jiujiu still thought about it for a long time, and finally he secretly smiled.

After staying in Qi Yirou's wing for a long time, Shen Jiujiu came out.

After lunch and dinner, he went to deliver medicine to Qi Yirou, and the rest of the time he stayed in his small courtyard to play with himself.

Living alone in the mountains with his master for three years, Shen Jiujiu had already developed the ability to talk to himself, and he made up a series of stories about two stalks of dog's tail grass.

Then the little black cat came to this courtyard from nowhere, and Shen Jiujiu and the little cat climbed up and down together, having a great time.

Before going to bed at night, he deliberately took a good shower, his whole body was clean and fragrant, wrapped in a quilt, lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

In the dead of night, the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion was opened, and Qi Bingzhi and Pei Zhengcai came back from the palace.

- Stepping into the Prime Minister's Mansion, Qi Bingzhi covered his face and went back to his waterside residence while crying.

Before tonight's banquet started, the emperor specially announced the conversation between the two of them, but Pei Zheng avoided their marriage the whole time.

He has always wanted to discuss with the emperor about the development of the barbarians in recent years. Seeing that the barbarians are getting stronger and stronger, the frontier is a little bit ready to move.

However, he reported the matter to the emperor several times, but the emperor didn't take it seriously, and always brought the topic to the marriage.

Pei Zheng was so depressed that he didn't show any good looks during the whole banquet.

After dismissing the servants around him, Pei Zheng walked alone in the prime minister's mansion, passing through several courtyards, and he unexpectedly came to this wing without knowing it.

The wing room was pitch black, and the people inside must have already fallen asleep.

Reaching out and gently pushing the door open, he stepped in.

On the bed not far away, there was indeed a small mountain bump, it was quiet, and the breathing was so light that it could not be heard.

Shen Jiujiu was very tired from playing during the day, and now Shen Shen fell into a dream. In his dream, there was a vast expanse of white snow. He was wearing a fluffy robe, jumping up and down in the snow like a little white rabbit. step on the snow.

Suddenly felt someone approaching behind him, Shen Jiu looked back in the snow, but there was nothing, but there was a feeling of touch in his waist, heavy, he was tightly bound somewhere, unable to move.

Shen Jiu groaned, pouted in a childish voice, "Yeah...it's so heavy...don't press me...I want...to build a snowman..."

A muffled chuckle came from above his head, Shen Jiu turned over, smashed his mouth, and continued to make a snowman in his dream.

This sleep didn't seem to be very good, when Shen Jiu woke up in a daze, it was already dawn.

He felt a little tired, his waist was sore and his legs were weak, and his arms were so heavy that he couldn't lift them up, as if his whole body had been rubbed, and he was about to fall apart.

The.

Maybe he was tired from dreaming, after all, he built a snowman all night.

When getting up to change clothes, Shen Jiu saw a few suspicious red marks on his body.

His skin is thin, it can be said to be extremely pampered, and it can turn red with a few touches.

Maybe it was accidentally tapped yesterday while playing, and Shen Jiu didn't take it seriously.

He went to push open the door, and couldn't help shivering, the weather was indeed getting colder.

Zhou Wu who was on the opposite side also opened the door and came out, but when he saw Shen Jiujiu, he avoided it directly, always sneaking glances at him intentionally or unintentionally, with strange and complicated eyes.

After being stared at by him several times, Shen Jiu finally couldn't bear it anymore, and walked straight to Zhou Wu, looking at him without blinking.

"Is there anything you want to tell me?"

Zhou Wu coughed twice in embarrassment, "No, no, no..."

But in fact, Zhou Wu was so panicked that he was about to explode. No one knew what he saw when he got up early this morning and wanted to go for convenience.

He saw Pei Zheng coming out of Shen Jiujiu's wing.

Reminiscent of the black robe Shen Jiu was wearing last time, Zhou Wu felt that he must know something important, but he didn't dare to say it.

After hastily talking to Shen Jiujiu, Zhou Wu left first on the pretext of going to the second princess.

When they came to Shuixieju, Qi Bingzhi was still resting and didn't get up, but Xiaomei put Zhou Wu in directly.

"Meet the second princess."

"Come in." Qi Bingzhi's voice came from behind the curtain.

Zhou Wu walked in with his head down.

After a long time, Zhou Wu came out of Shuixieju, and he had already told Qi Bingzhi what he had seen and his speculation.

Qi Bingzhi was so angry that he couldn't help trembling all over, and the words he spit out were full of jealousy and cruelty.

"Shen Nineteen, I will never let you go!"

Then, a decree came from the palace, saying that the third princess Qi Yirou's biological mother, Noble Concubine Xi, died.

As the only child of Concubine Xi, Qi Yirou was taken back to the palace to prepare for her funeral.

And because of the busy schedule, the Tai Hospital wanted to recall Shen Jiujiu and Zhou Wu to go back.

Qi Bingzhi asked Zhou Wu to go back, and left Shen Jiujiu in the prime minister's mansion. She still had a debt to settle with Shen Jiujiu.

Before Zhou Wu left, he went to Shuixieju to stay for a long time, and then reluctantly returned to the palace.

Therefore, the task of conditioning Qi Bingzhi's body fell on Shen Jiujiu.

He delivered medicine to Shuixieju every day, and then he would obediently go back to his own room to stay. With kittens coming to keep him company every day, it wouldn't be too boring.

But on this day, Shen Jiujiu waited in the courtyard for a long time, but the little black cat didn't come to him. Instead, he waited for Xiaomei, the maid beside Qi Bingzhi.

"Shen Nineteen! Go and see the princess, the princess is injured! Hurry up!"

Shen Jiu hurriedly took out the medicine box and followed Xiaomei to Shuixieju.

I saw Qi Bingzhi standing on the steps in front of Shuixieju's gate, surrounded by several servants, not knowing what to do.

"People are coming! Get out of the way, hurry up!"

Xiaomei yelled in front, and the others hurriedly stepped aside.

Shen Jiujiu walked over with the medicine box in his arms, and saw a large pool of blood dripping on the ground.

There were two deep scratches on Qi Bingzhi's wrist, extending all the way to his arm. It looked hideous, and blood was still flowing out.

"Aiming"

When Shen Jiu heard the kitten's cry, he realized that Xiao Miaoming was being held down by two servants on the ground, unable to struggle, and the kitten's paws were also covered with blood.

It looked at Shen Jiujiu weakly and helplessly, his eyes full of pleading and pleading for help.

"What are you looking at! Hurry up and treat the princess!"

Shen Jiujiu came back to his senses, quickly opened the medicine box, took out the hemostatic powder and sprinkled it lightly on the wound, Qi Bingzhi was in pain and trembling all over.

Shen Jiujiu took out a white gauze to wipe off the blood and medicine powder next to her, Qi Bingzhi frowned tightly.

Seeing this, Xiaomei yelled at Shen Jiujiu, "Can't you take it easy, the princess is in such pain, yet you still use so much force!"

Shen Jiu pouted aggrievedly, and complained in a low voice, "I'm obviously already very light..."

The blood from the wound finally stopped, but because the wound was too deep, it would definitely leave a scar.

As soon as these words came out, Qi Bingzhi's face changed drastically.

"No! I can't leave a scar, you have to let me heal it, without leaving any trace!"

Shen Jiujiu thought for a long time before saying, "But, I don't know how to make this kind of medicine that doesn't leave scars. Only my master can do it."

"Then find your master!"

"My master, I don't know where I went, and I can't find her..."

Qi Bingzhi turned to look at the quiet kitten, and Xiaomei also looked at the cat and said bitterly, "It's all this ignorant thing. If you dare to scratch the princess, it is enough for the princess to hug it." It's right to show its face, this Xiangfu is really a cat that is more noble than a human!"

"Come on! Throw this cat out quickly, it's an eyesore." Xiaomei dictated, seemingly full of confidence.

But the servants next to him had a hard time, how dare they throw the cat away, now that the lord is not here, if the lord finds out, they will probably be the ones who got thrown away.

Seeing that no one dared to make a move, Xiaomei immediately became angry.

She has been by Qi Bingzhi's side for so many years. When she was in the palace before, although Qi Bingzhi was not favored, she was the empress's daughter after all, and others did not dare to lose respect.

But since he came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, how could anyone really hold Her Highness the Princess in the palm of his hand? Now no one dares to punish even the cat that only hurt the Princess.Xiaomei walked over directly and wanted to catch the cat herself. Seeing this, Shen Jiujiu was very nervous, and hurriedly hugged the little black cat up first.

The little black cat was scratching and scratching in Qi Bingzhi's arms, but Shen Jiujiu hugged it, but it was very obedient. It closed its sharp claws, and rubbed Shen Jiujiu's hand with its fleshy palm.

"Your Highness, Xiao Maowu is actually very good, can you not throw it away..."

Shen Jiujiu looked at Qi Bingzhi with pleading eyes.

Unexpectedly, Qi Bingzhi became even more annoyed when she saw a person and a cat who got along very well. She glanced at Xiaomei, and Xiaomei understood.

"Shen Nineteen, you left the cat to me. This matter has nothing to do with you. Don't meddle in your own business!"

Xiaomei wanted to snatch the cat directly from Shen Jiuhuai, but Shen Jiu hid back.

"Little Miaowu must have known it was wrong, and it will never dare to do it in the future, right, Little Miaowu?" Shen Jiujiu lowered his head and asked the kitten in his arms.

The little black cat seemed to be spiritual, and knew that its current situation was very dangerous. It got into the robe on Shen Jiujiu's chest in fear, and hid its body, only showing two furry cat ears.

"Aiming, aiming, aiming, aiming, aiming, aiming and aiming"

Shen Jiujiu raised his head and said, "Listen, it said it."

Xiaomei glared at him, "Shen Nineteen! How can you understand what animals say? Stop pretending! Send me here!"

As Xiaomei approached Shen Jiujiu, she reached out to grab the two cat ears.

"I understand it!" Shen Jiujiu protected the kitten's ears, and begged Qi Bingzhi again.

"His Royal Highness, I beg you to let Xiao Maowu go. Although he usually makes a lot of trouble, he won't hurt people if he doesn't force him."

Qi Bingzhi raised his injured wrist and looked at Shen Jiujiu, his eyes were as cold as ice.

"Shen Nineteen, what do you mean? You mean me, forcing a cat? Could it be that I want it to scratch my scars?"

In fact, Qi Bingzhi did it on purpose. She knew that the cat didn't like to be close to people, but she deliberately hugged it in her arms and even pinched its tail, which really caused the cat to scratch her severely.

Qi Bingzhi just wanted to see if he couldn't even compare to a cat in Pei Zhengyan's eyes.

"That's not what I meant..." Shen Jiujiu didn't know how to explain for the little cat, but Qi Bingzhi's people still seemed unwilling to give in at all.

"My lord loves Xiao Miaowu very much, and Her Royal Highness can't just throw it away without permission. What if my lord comes back and doesn't see Xiao Miaowu getting angry? Let's wait until my lord comes back."

Shen Jiujiu finally thought of it, he could pull Pei Zheng out to support him, and he believed that the adults would definitely not want to see Xiao Jie Miao Ming being bullied.

Sure enough, Qi Bingzhi seemed a little hesitant, and she kept weighing in her heart whether she should test Pei Zheng like this.

Xiaomei saw that her princess didn't seem to know what she was thinking, so she just kept going and pushed Shen Shijiu hard.

"Stop talking nonsense here. In the hearts of adults, the princess is of course more important than a cat! If you don't believe me, you can throw it out!"

Xiaomei asked the other two to hold Shen Jiujiu's arms respectively, and then reached into his arms, grabbed the kitten by the back of its neck and pulled it out.

Shen Jiu didn't know where the strength came from, but he pulled out an arm nimbly, hugged the kitten's body and snatched it back.

The cat desperately broke free from Xiaomei's hand, and grabbed Xiaomei backhand. Xiaomei took a few steps back in pain.

Unexpectedly, Qi Bingzhi was standing not far behind Xiaomei, and happened to be bumped by Xiaomei, and he fell straight down with a cry of surprise.

There are several steps next to it, which are not too high, but Qi Bingzhi fell unexpectedly, not only sprained his ankle, but also scratched the wound on his arm that had stopped bleeding with great difficulty, and bled again.

Everyone panicked and hurried down to help Qi Bingzhi.

Qi Bingzhi's body was in constant pain, and some tears came out of his eyes. He looked at Shen Jiu with red eyes, and there was anger and hatred in those eyes.

Shen Jiujiu was pulled back again, but no one went to snatch the cat anymore, and the little black cat nestled neatly in the robe on his chest.

Regardless of the wound on her hand, Xiaomei walked directly in front of Shen Jiujiu, and slapped her hard.

"It's all because of you! You actually caused the princess to fall down the steps. Shen Nineteen, you are too crazy. You are just a little apprentice, how dare you treat the princess like this!"

Shen Jiujiu turned his head sideways after being slapped by this slap, and there was a burning pain on his cheek, and a five-finger fingerprint was instantly swollen.

He hadn't realized what was going on, it was clearly not him who pushed the princess down the steps, it was Xiaomei who pushed it.

But that Xiaomei seemed to have pushed all the faults on him, raised her hand high, and wanted to slap Shen nineteen more times.

At this time, the butler Li Yu hurried over, and raised his voice to stop him, "Stop it! My lord is back!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Zheng walked into the courtyard of Shuixieju.

There was chaos in front of the gate of Shuixieju, Qi Bingzhi was helped to stand under the steps in front of the attic, while Shen Jiu was firmly restrained by several people, standing on the steps, with obvious slap marks on his small face.

Pei Zheng walked up the steps with his hands behind his back, walked up to Shen Jiujiu, picked his chin with his fingers, and looked carefully at the marks on his face.

Then she looked back at Xiaomei who was standing beside her with her head bowed, "Did you hit me?"

Xiaomei sensed the chill emanating from Pei Zheng's body, she didn't dare to speak, and nodded silently.

"look up."

Xiaomei raised her head obediently, and then secretly took a deep breath.

Pei Zheng stood in front of her, eyes half-closed in displeasure, as cold and handsome as a painter.

No wonder princesses are so obsessed.

In the next second, Pei Zhengyang slapped Xiaomei with his hand.

This palm did not use any internal force, but it was still powerful enough to make Xiaomei fall to the ground directly, spitting blood from her mouth.
