Chang Huanxi

Qi Yuan was silent for a long time, Xie Ling looked back at them, until now was not a good time to speak, so he suppressed his gossip and pressed his head against the window.

Huh?

The proprietress stood at the gate for a while, and soon welcomed someone in.The rain outside was getting heavier, crackling on the windows, and people's voices were suppressed a little.

Two maids carrying meals passed by their door, one of them said: "I don't know what happened, I heard that all the officials are here."

The other lowered his voice: "It's not afternoon yet...I've seen blood all over. I heard that the official's legs and feet are not very good, and it's raining again, so he came late."

"So serious? No, it won't kill anyone, right?" The girl who spoke earlier sounded timid.

Her companion fiercely said to her: "Keep your voice down, don't disturb the guests! Isn't there a proprietress here... eh?"

Just as she said don't disturb the guests, the girl turned her side and saw Xie Ling looking at them with a small face and bright eyes.I was so frightened that I almost couldn't even hold the plate in my hand steadily.

Xie Ling laughed and said: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, you can talk about yours, just pretend that I don't exist."

That was of course impossible, the two girls bent over to her, and ran away as if oiling the soles of their feet.Xie Ling was very disappointed.

Are your legs not good enough... Shen Yanhuan had a subtle premonition from the bottom of her heart.Obviously Qi Yuan thought of going with him, and there was an unexplainable expression on his face.

Sure enough, within a short while, there was the sound of messy footsteps in the aisle, and their unlocked door was pushed open with a bang, and a chubby figure rolled behind Qi Yuan one by one at a flexible angle. A round face full of horror was revealed, and the fear in his eyes was almost overflowing.

"Qi Daochang!! Help, Qi Daochang!!"

"Uh..." It really was Xu Mao.

The master also rushed back later, dragging Xu Mao to accompany him repeatedly.

Shen Yanhuan patted Xu Mao's fleshy shoulder sympathetically, and found that it was soft and flexible, so she couldn't help but pat it twice more, "It's hard for you to keep catching up with such things when you are so timid."

Xu Mao was taken aback by him, what's going on, is he comforting me?Are you still mocking me for not being able to do this well?

Qi Yuan still couldn't see how careful he was, he suppressed a smile and bowed to Xu Mao, and took the opportunity to touch his chubby face, "Why is Master Xu here? This time it has nothing to do with Yunyang, right?" ?”

Xu Mao: Why do you feel like you were double molested just now?

But he quickly got serious, cupped his hands and said, "A while ago, Lord Yushi was getting old. It turned out that Lord Song of Wangcheng took his place. Hehe, it was just in time for the case last time. The emperor thought it was done well, so he gave it to me." Xiao was promoted to an official, so he moved two steps and came to Wangcheng!"

"Qi Daochang also thinks this is strange!" Xu Mao poured a cup of tea and sat down, "Let's talk about the girl who died a few days ago. How could a person stick his head into a hot oil pan?

Even if you want to commit suicide, this kind of death is too uncomfortable. Besides, although this girl died of her unmarried husband-in-law a few years ago, the neighbors say that she has a cheerful personality and manages her life well on weekdays. , it makes no sense to want to die for love after so many years. "

Shen Yanhuan asked: "Is it possible that I was not careful?"

Xu Mao hurriedly said: "No, this girl's family is not rich, and she usually cooks in small pots, and there is no ups and downs under her feet.

If it fell into it by accident, the first reaction of a normal person would be to reach out to block it or to find a way to escape, but this girl has no scars on any other parts of her body except for the severe injury on her face. "

After a pause, Xu Mao took a sip of tea to suppress his shock, and then continued, "It's as if it was purposely intended to destroy her face. The cause of her death was that strong oil was poured into her nose and mouth."

"Is there anything special about her face?" Shen Yanhuan wondered, how could someone kill her just to destroy someone else's face.

It was rare for Qi Yuan to see him so interested in something, so he didn't interrupt, and let him ask.

Xu Mao scratched his hair, and his whole face was made into a big sad word, "It's nothing special, just two noses and one eye, is it really good-looking?"

Shen Yanhuan felt as if she had auditory hallucinations. Isn't it special that she has two noses and one eye?

"Oh oh oh wrong! One nose and two eyes! I'm losing my mind right now!"

Xu Mao rubbed his eyes, the long-term tense spirit broke his will, and he felt drowsy when he came to such a warm environment, but is it too hot in this room?

"The face is so pretty, and the voice is so nice... Is there another one, with a particularly dexterous hand?" Shen Yanhuan said suddenly, his expression changed, he turned around and ran out.

The other people in the room didn't know what happened, but after he ran like this, those who were drowsy didn't dare to feel sleepy, and those who watched the excitement withdrew their thoughts. They looked at each other, but unanimously decided to go with him to see what happened. What's up.

It was raining heavily, except for Xu Mao who held an umbrella for him when the master came, no one else had any tools to cover the rain. How could Xu Mao dare to open an umbrella in front of the prince, he took things from the master. He came over and wanted to hand it to Qi Yuan, but the other party just stopped a little girl and asked where Shen Yanhuan was going, then left quickly, how could Xu Mao keep up with him?

Finally, he opened the umbrella to Xie Ling who was following behind them.The little girl was happy, and said "Thank you!" She was not polite, and rushed into the rain holding an umbrella.

"My lord, why don't you just wait here, your legs are raining so hard..." Seeing that he also wanted to follow, the master hurriedly stopped him.

Xu Mao shook his head, lifted his robe and draped it over his head, and ran out.

When Qi Yuan rushed to the backyard, Shen Yanhuan had already started a fight with someone, the sharp sword energy broke through the rain curtain, and the swirling rain flowers blocked his sight.

But this did not prevent Shen Yanhuan from drawing his sword. He listened carefully to the opponent's footsteps on the water, and slashed with his backhand to the right rear. He broke a branch in the courtyard and wanted to help him.Shen Yanhuan turned around and drank: "Go and see Miss Lan Ye!"

Seeing that the matter was brought to light, the other party didn't want to entangle with him anymore, all he wanted was to get rid of him.

As if he knew something a long time ago, he only attacked Shen Yanhuan's right side. Although Shen Yanhuan's right shoulder was not as flexible as before, he had a good foundation after all, and it was hard to distinguish between the two for a while.

The man didn't seem to have expected that he could recover so quickly and take so many moves from him. He let out a "tsk", and the speed of the sword was a little faster. The Linyan in Shen Yanhuan's hand met the opponent's sword. Then, there was a neighing tremor, seeing that his hand was about to lose its hold, the moment Linyan let go, Shen Yanhuan gritted his teeth, turned to catch the sword with his left hand, and entangled him again reluctantly.

The man obviously didn't expect that his left hand could also wield a sword, and he couldn't dodge for a while, so he cut off half of his sleeve to reveal a thin white forearm.

Qi Yuan stepped into the firewood room with big strides, seeing a mess, candlesticks and sundries rolled all over the floor, and there were many traces that could be seen from fighting.

A small and exquisite dagger fell to the ground, it seemed that Shen Yanhuan knocked it down when he came.

Lan Ye hadn't woken up yet, old doctor Xie didn't know whether he was frightened or beaten and passed out. Before he passed out, he firmly protected Lan Ye.

Ji Shitang is a family of doctors with great reputation, it seems that that person didn't want to cause other troubles, so he didn't rush to attack old doctor Xie.

He first helped Old Doctor Xie to sit in a corner beside him, and relit the candle to test Lan Ye's pulse.

fine……

Presumably Shen Yanhuan came in time, before that person had time to make a move.

The proprietress was afraid that bringing such Lan Ye into the guest room would attract too many people's attention, so she put her in this place where few people would usually come, but it provided convenience for those who had evil intentions.

He was thinking of going out to see the situation outside, when he saw Xie Ling helping Shen Yanhuan come in from the outside, followed by the voice of Xu Mao ordering the servants to chase after him.

"What?" Qi Yuan immediately went up to him and took him over.Shen Yanhuan took a deep breath and shook his head: "It's okay, that person didn't know what to do just now, the west wall arrived and told him to run away, it was because he was accidentally smashed. Are they all right?"

"Grandpa is fine, just passed out temporarily." Xie Ling rummaged through the overturned medicine box and took out a small bottle and put it under Old Doctor Xie's nose. His eyes quickly regained clarity.

"Hiss!" Shen Yanhuan gasped, her trousers were rolled up to her knees, the knees were already swollen high, and the bluish-purple blood smeared on her legs, which looked more serious than it actually was.

Qi Yuan stretched out his hand to cover him, and with great difficulty, he touched his cold skin with some normal temperature before starting to help him loosen the bruise.

Shen Yanhuan lowered his head and met Qi Yuan's gaze. He thought about how he should react now, so he smiled at him and said, "I'm fine..."

Qi Yuan frowned, and pressed hard on his knee with his hands, Shen Yanhuan shrank back suddenly in pain. "Just say it hurts. How do you know you're fine all day long?"

Actually, it didn't hurt too much... But Shen Yanhuan obediently kept her mouth shut, because Qi Yuan seemed to be in a very bad mood now.

Old Doctor Xie coughed dryly twice, stood up and went to check on Lan Ye's situation.Perhaps affected by what happened just now, he didn't drive them all out this time.

"We can't stay here any longer..." Qi Yuan said, "Take Miss Lan Yi to Linhuazhai."
