Chapter 1129
After Zhu Shishi and the princess heard this, although they were suspicious, they had no choice, they glanced at each other, and then walked out of the house in a daze. The princess turned around three times in one step, and her face was full of reluctance.
After Zhu Shishi and the princess walked out of the house, Li Qiufeng looked at Humpty Dumpty with a weird smile on his face. Humpty Dumpty hurriedly waved his hand at him, motioning for him to leave. Li Qiufeng closed the door and retreated outside. I saw that Zhu Shishi and the princess did not stay away, but stood at the door, looking at Li Qiufeng with a nervous expression. Li Qiufeng knew that the two of them couldn't rest assured, so he arched his hand and said: "Lord, princess, the master under me is proficient in medicine, and with him to help, the prince should be fine." ”
Zhu Shishi nodded and said, "What is Your Excellency's position in Jinyiwei?"
Li Qiufeng smiled slightly and said, "Don't hide it, I have left Jinyiwei in Xia, and now I am just a prodigal son of the rivers and lakes." ”
Zhu Shishi's face changed, and he seemed to be a little unable to believe his ears, but he just looked up and down carefully. Li Qiufeng said: "When I left Jinyiwei, thanks to the care of Lord Yang Zhongyang, who was in charge of Jinyiwei, I didn't take away the Jinyiwei waist card, which scared away the dog official surnamed Wang. ”
Zhu Shishi's heart was shocked, and he secretly thought that there was such a coincidence in the world, and he was in an embarrassment, but there was such a chivalrous warrior to help. He pondered for a moment, glanced at Li Qiufeng, and said, "Your Excellency, this master, it seems that the accent is not from Shuzhong. I don't know where he lives and who he learns from?"
Li Qiufeng knew that Zhu Shishi had doubts about himself in his heart, so he said in a deep voice: "I want to teach the prince to know that the family teacher's surname is Liu, and he lives in Shuzhong. It's just that he lives in seclusion in the mountains, and he has never asked about the world, and his reputation in the world is not obvious. ”
When he said this, he paused slightly, and then said: "The princess just mentioned Mr. He from Emei Mountain. The tutor and this Mr. He have also had several relationships. If the prince and princess see Mr. He in the future, they might as well ask him if they know Mr. Liu, who lives in seclusion in Shushan. Naturally, he would tell the two of my masters about it. ”
Zhu Shishi's heart calmed down for a while, and he said: "Looking at the manners, words and deeds of Your Excellency and the Venerable Master, this king must be a person with great skills, and he shouldn't have worried about the two of them. Master Fang refused to let us see how he healed the dog in the house, which made the king a little worried, and I hope that your Excellency will not blame the king for being too careful. ”
Li Qiufeng said: "It is not unreasonable for the prince to think about it. The family teacher is just for the sake of perfection, for fear that we will stand aside and shock the son of the world and cause an unpredictable tragedy. You don't have to worry, just wait outside the house. ”
When Li Qiufeng said this, he took out the silver tickets from his bosom with his right hand, and said to Zhu Shishi: "These silver tickets are taken from the hands of two dirty officials, not to give alms to the prince, but because the prince does not have to have any fear. Over the years, the guy dog official in the Ministry of Rites didn't know how much silver he had cheated from the prince, and asking these officials to spit out some was definitely not a thing that hurt yin and morality. ”
Zhu Shishi pondered for a moment, nodded, and then took the silver ticket from Li Qiufeng's hand, and said, "Your Excellency is right. Since the generation of this king's grandfather, in order to name the first king, no less than 30,000 or 40,000 taels of silver were sent to the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Today, I have taken their money, and I will be able to recover a cent of interest. ”
When the princess saw Zhu Shixi take the silver ticket, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The two chatted casually, and suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, and then the old servant walked through the corner door into the backyard. I saw him holding a string of medicine bags in his right hand, walked quickly in front of Zhu Shishi, and said, "Lord Wang, the medicine has been bought, do you want to take a look?"
Zhu Shishi shook his head and said, "Uncle is cautious and careful, I'll leave this matter to you." ”
The old servant nodded and said, "In that case, the old slave will go to the front yard to decoct the medicine." ”
Zhu Shishi said: "Then it's bothering the uncle." But these three friends have helped us a lot, and we haven't eaten yet. Uncle went to Yuexin Pavilion to ask for a table of banquets, let's have a drink with a few friends. ”
The old servant was startled, and secretly thought that the palace had been unable to make ends meet and stretched thin in the past few years, so he could only tear down the east wall and make up the west wall. The house can only drink a bowl of gruel and eat a little pickles every day, and I don't know what the wine and food in the tavern tastes like. Even if Zhu Shishi wants to treat him today, he can't come up with a penny, how can this be good?
The old servant hesitated, but he was ashamed to say such an embarrassing thing in front of outsiders, and when he didn't know what to do, Zhu Shishi handed him a silver ticket and said, "You go to the money house to exchange twenty taels of silver first, and then book a table of banquets and come back." ”
The old servant took the silver ticket, put it in his hand and looked at it, as if he couldn't believe his eyes. He raised his head and was about to talk to Zhu Shishi, but he heard Li Qiufeng say, "Lord, you can't exchange these silver tickets right now." ”
Zhu Shishi was stunned, and thought to himself, you were the one who gave me the silver ticket, and you were the one who didn't allow me to spend the silver ticket. Could it be that you give me a silver ticket, is it a pastime for me?
Li Qiufeng saw Zhu Shishi's uncertain expression, and knew that he was unhappy, so he opened his mouth and said: "Lord Wang, those two dog officials gave the silver ticket to Zaixia, and they must be annoyed in their hearts. With the wisdom of these two people, they will not easily believe Zaixia, although they handed over the silver ticket to Zaixia, they are afraid that they will be sent to monitor all over the city. If this uncle goes to exchange for silver tickets and is seen by those eagle dogs who are watching, he will definitely implicate the prince. It is better to spend ten days and a half months, and the prince will invite this uncle to go to the neighboring prefecture and county to find an inconspicuous money village to exchange the silver ticket, which is a foolproof strategy. ”
Only then did Zhu Shishi understand, and he was secretly ashamed in his heart. Li Qiufeng took out a silver ingot from his arms, which was five or six taels, handed it to the old servant, and said, "Uncle take this silver to buy wine and food." ”
The old servant looked at the silver handed over by Li Qiufeng, but he didn't reach out to take it, but just turned his head to look at Zhu Shishi.
Zhu Shishi pondered for a moment and said to the old servant: "Since this is the case, the uncle will take the silver." ”
The old servant respectfully took the silver, bowed and bowed, and was about to turn around and leave, when the old man surnamed Huang, who had been standing silently on the side, said: "I am also rough in the medical way." When Mr. Liu asked the old gentleman to buy medicine, he also listened to the prescription and dosage he said. Since the prince asked the old gentleman to buy wine and food, the medicine for the prince to drink will be handed over to the next to boil. ”
Zhu Shishi said: "Mr. is a guest from afar, how can I bother you to do these things?"
The old man surnamed Huang said: "The prince doesn't have to be polite. We are all here to save the world, and we can't delay for a moment. ”
After he finished speaking, he turned to the old servant and said, "I'm sorry that the old man will take it to the place where he decocted the medicine." ”
The old servant said, "Thank you, sir." Please come with me, sir. ”
Zhu Shishi watched the old man surnamed Huang and the old servant walk out of the backyard, turned to Li Qiufeng and said, "Your Excellency is thoughtful, this king admires you." ”
Li Qiufeng said: "The prince Chrysostom praises it, and it is an honor to be here." ”
Zhu Shishi saw the princess standing on the side, her expression was nervous, and her body couldn't help shaking. He handed the silver ticket in his hand to the princess, and said, "You can keep these silver tickets." The two children don't know what to do in the house, so you should go and see them and don't let them miss their homework. ”
The princess took the silver ticket, knowing that Zhu Shishi couldn't bear to let her stand outside the study and be afraid, so she found an excuse to leave by herself. Although she hesitated, she finally nodded, and quietly walked through the courtyard into the wing room on the left.
Li Qiufeng stood in front of the door of the study with his hands in his hands, looking up at the sky. Naturally, he wouldn't believe what the master said. The prince is seriously ill, Humpty Dumpty wants to protect the heart of the prince with deep internal strength, so that he will not be dissipated, and after boiling the medicine, he will take it to save the son's life. It's just that Humpty Dumpty has to go all out when he works, and that's when he's most vulnerable. Although Humpty Dumpty and Li Qiufeng both saw that Zhu Shishi and the princess did not understand martial arts, there were treacherous turmoil in the rivers and lakes, and they had to be foolproof. Because of this, Humpty Dumpty deliberately said something like "frightened soul", which made Zhu Shishi and the princess tremble and had to leave the study so that Humpty Dumpty could save the world. And the old man surnamed Huang is also proficient in medicine, before coming to the palace, listening to Humpty Dumpty and Zhu Shishi, he had already guessed his intentions. When Zhu 14 instructed the old servant to prepare wine and food, the old man was afraid of making a mistake, so he stood up and wanted to decoct the medicine for the old servant. He was like Humpty Dumpty and Li Qiufeng, and he pitied Zhu Shishi's family for falling to such a point, and wanted to save the life of the prince, so as not to make this down-and-out prince even more embarrassed.
