On the first day of the new year, the sound of cannons on Xishui Street rang from early morning to dark.

Until the beginning of the Xu Dynasty, there were still small traders outside the eastern capital continuously entering the city, trying their best to grab the tail of the New Year and save more savings for their families.

In such a lively and peaceful environment, at the end of the official road at the East City Gate, a motorcade of travel-stained vehicles slowly came.

There were 16 horse riders in the team, all wearing blue hats, with a chilling aura, guarding the coarse cloth carriage in the middle like stars arching the moon, which was out of tune with the surrounding atmosphere, and attracted passers-by to look at it frequently.

However, they only dared to take a sneak peek, because the person at the head of the team looked a bit fierce.

Even though the bamboo hat completely covered this person's face, even though he didn't look very burly, the aura of not getting close to strangers was enough to scare people.

Seeing them approaching aggressively, everyone was ready to be cut in line.

However, unexpectedly, this team looked fierce, but acted very surly. They just stepped forward to check the situation, and then went back to be in the last order.

During the period, someone seemed to be impatient, and drove his horse to ask the leader for instructions, to the effect that he wanted to "greeting" with the guards so that they could advance into the city.

However, that person just glanced at the proposer without saying a word, and looked calmly at the high city wall in front of him.

Two quarters later, the group of 16 people plus a carriage finally managed to enter the city. The leader took 14 of them to find a place to stay first, while the rest drove the carriage to Jinzhao Street in a hurry.

At the entrance of the Santang Pharmacy, Xiao Hui had already hung up the closing sign, and walked around the back door for half an hour.

When the sound of the wheels rolling over the bluestone slab was heard, his eyes froze and he stared at the carriage.

However, the person who came down was not the one he thought.

An old man who looked close to sixty years old, dressed in traditional colorful clothes in southern Xinjiang, and with gray and white braids, walked down the car while holding on to the shaft, and threw a prescription to Xiao Hui.

Xiao Hui didn't dare to ask how his highness was doing, so he rushed into the pharmacy grabbing the medicine.

Santang's guys have probably never seen their shopkeeper be so skillful.

There are 140 four drawers on the cabinet which occupies an entire wall, and the name of the medicine is not marked on it, but Xiao Hui does not need to distinguish which drawer each medicine is placed in, or even weigh it. Accurately grasped.

Outside the door, the hidden guard who was driving the old man anxiously stared at the half-closed door, he was too worried that Xiao Hui would not be able to find all the medicinal materials for the antidote here.

Qi Yunzheng was backstabbed and poisoned by one of his own people when he was in Southern Xinjiang. This poison is very vicious. It will not kill people immediately, but it will slowly wear down the body of the poisoned person. It is difficult for these poison masters in Southern Xinjiang to deal with. thing.

Don't think that Qi Yunzheng can ride back to Dongdu on his own right now, but he vomited blood countless times along the way.

After half an incense stick, the young man felt that it was already half the afternoon, and he almost couldn't wait, so he went in to look for Xiao Hui, who finally rushed out with sweat on his face and a medicine bag.

At the same time brings a bad news:

"No, I don't have any scorpions that are blindly produced in Capricornus."

"Then, what should I do then!" The young man who came to see Nanyi was actually an emotional one, and his eyes were red when he heard the words.

According to his thinking, the Second Highness should go directly to the palace to find an imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment, and show the wound to others. There may be other ways, why must he endure it by himself?

However, Xiao Hui obviously stood with His Royal Highness, and said quickly: "Go to Xishui Street, walk straight in, and you will find the largest medicine store in the entire East, called Hengxiang, there may be one there!"

The small flame that had just been extinguished released a puff of green smoke, but the doctor beside him suddenly spoke, saying a series of strange words.

Xiao Hui didn't understand, but the young man nodded, and then his face turned pale again.

"The old man said that His Highness should go to the pharmacy together." After the young man translated the general meaning, he hurriedly turned around and wanted to leave, but Xiao Hui held his shoulders tightly.

Xiao Hui didn't look at him, but his eyes showed undisguised vigilance and hostility, and he looked straight at the old man.

The latter looked back without fear, his eyes calm.

Xiao Hui's heart suddenly felt a little cold - the old man in front of him obviously knew everything.

But there was nothing he could do.

So after only a short pause, he let go of the young man's shoulders and watched the two of them get back into the carriage.

Just as the wheel was rolling again, Xiao Hui suddenly grabbed the young man's sleeve again.

He seemed to be hesitant, but in the end he lowered his voice and said vaguely: "If there is any obstacle, just tell the master, if you go to the next door to dry the square cabinet... Qianzhuang, find a girl surnamed Qi, maybe there is a glimmer of life." .”

He didn't know if the Qi girl who had been famous all over Dongdu in the past six months could do anything about it, but the people behind her might have a way.

And if the other party really has discernment, they should know that among Emperor Huicheng's three sons, only His Highness the Second Highness has the most honest military power!

As for the third prince's five-city soldiers and horses?

Putting it in front of the Beifu army can't even compare to a little finger!

If that person is smart enough, why doesn't he seize this moment to send charcoal in a timely manner?

At the same time, Qi Changting, who was having a "family banquet" in the palace, said, "Ah Choo!"

The young man complained to the first emperor for his impoliteness, but he thought in his heart that this year's winter was extremely cold, so he should send some silver charcoal from the palace to his little gentleman.

On the other side, the courtyard where Qi Yunzheng stayed was in chaos.

The leader who brought everyone into the city in a good manner before was nowhere to be seen, but there was a sick man with a pale face on the couch.

Qi Yunzheng took the letter from his subordinate and read it hastily. He was silent for a while, and finally nodded.

"According to what Uncle He said, but remember, if I lose consciousness, you must be on guard, and no one is allowed to feel my pulse!"

The 14 people answered yes loudly, so two more people were separated to drive the carriage, protecting Qi Yunzheng all the way and galloping away towards Chaoxishui Street.

It is probably because God reads His Highness the Second Highness who has been stationed on the border of Dahui all the year round, and they have made great contributions to the country and the people. They actually found that troublesome Capricornus scorpion in Hengxiang Pharmacy.

The Southern Physician surnamed He immediately borrowed the pharmacy that Hengxiang used to process medicinal materials on weekdays, and in just one stick of incense, he somehow made the whole scorpion into a small spoonful of brown unknown liquid, called Qi Yunzheng subdued.

Everyone said that if the medicine was ugly, the taste would make up for it, but this is not the case at all.

He raised his neck and sent the small spoonful into his stomach, Qi Yunzheng immediately turned pale, and without caring about anything else, he rushed out of the carriage, leaned on the shaft and retched.

But he could only retch, not daring to vomit at all.

Hengxiang also only had this scorpion, and according to the talkative guy, it was because at the beginning of the year that he borrowed silver from the Qianfang Bank next door, Hengxiang's treasurer made up his mind and sent someone to the northeast to buy it. A batch of exotic medicinal materials came back.

Qianfang, Qianzhuang?

What is this bank?

Qi Yunzheng randomly found a topic in an attempt to divert his attention, but suddenly he heard a familiar voice in a daze.

Five years ago, he was in northern Xinjiang, and was targeted by Turkic agents who infiltrated the city.

The other party wanted to arrest him and threaten Duke Cheng'en's mansion, so he had no choice but to steal a set of women's clothing from a tailor's shop, untie the belt, and then force him into a young man's carriage, and then fought dangerously and dangerously. After that, he escaped for a day.

That was about the first time he showed his true colors since he could remember.

His mother and concubine told him since he was a child that he must be a prince, otherwise no matter how good he is, he would bring disaster to everyone.

Being a woman is the worst thing in this world, Qi Yunzheng felt.

But after watching him slaughter a Turkic spy with his own eyes, the stunned young boy murmured with his eyes wide open:

"I really want to be a girl like you."

This sounds funny, how can a man in the world want to be a woman?

Qi Yunzheng knew that the other party didn't mean that, but he was still stunned.

This is the first person, even when he was trapped in a woman's body, he did not hesitate to express his admiration.

It made him feel that this mountain had moved away from his heart for a moment.

In the pharmacy, Qi Yunzheng's head was dizzy, he subconsciously turned his head, looked in the direction of the sound, and then slowly widened his eyes.

I wonder if Uncle He's method of fighting poison with poison has failed, causing him to have hallucinations when he was dying.

However, he shook his head, and the scene not far away was still the same, even more vivid.

The boy has grown into a young man, dressed in a white robe, talking and laughing happily with the shopkeeper of Hengxiang who is at least two rounds his age. Compared with the fight in Yongfu the year before last, the aura around him is more calm.

Qi Yunzheng stood in the corner, and suddenly looked away as if he had woken up. On the side of the street, the young man seemed to have noticed something, and suddenly looked this way at the same time.

He looked around vigilantly, and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he walked back to the Ganfang next door.

Qi Yunzheng watched the young man walk under the huge plaque of Qianfang Bank, with stormy waves rolling in his eyes.

This encounter is wonderful - if Bai Xiao hadn't walked into Qianfang Bank.

Qi Yunzheng personally fought against Bai Xiao in Yongfu the year before last, and he knew very well who Bai Xiao followed to Dongdu, but now, he appeared in this Ganfang Bank.

Of course, this may just be Bai Xiao's own way of life, and it has nothing to do with Qi Changting.

But this is a shop that has risen strongly from under the nose of Qi Jingmin's Shenghe Cabinet in just one year. Is it really possible that it has nothing to do with Qi Changting?

Not to mention, Bai Xiao actually changed his identity.

Qi Yunzheng took a deep breath.

He, the third brother, really played a big game of chess.

If it wasn't for Bai Xiao being different to him and making him remember that face firmly, otherwise he would never be able to recognize that Manager Qi was by Qi Changting's side just because of the one-time encounter in Yongfu in July the year before last. That little pawn, of course, couldn't guess that Qi Changting was behind Qian Fang.

Thinking of this, the young man suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his chest, and the fishy and sweet breath rose slowly,

Bai Xiao...

It's not good to vote for anyone, and you have to get caught up in the most chaotic court situation in the world.

As long as he is in the game, he will meet him sooner or later, will he recognize him at that time?

Will he, after discovering his biggest secret, turn around and sell it to Qi Changting?

Qi Yunzheng raised his head, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then opened his eyes, with a faint killing intent in them.

Gratitude will be revenged...

Sigh, I am more suitable to be a man.

He didn't think about it.
