Tragedy counter attack system
Chapter 46 4.1
In Qingzhou City, the cold wind howled and blew, and the ground paved with bluestone was covered with a thin layer of snow. As soon as it fell, it was blown up by the wind and scattered in all directions.There are no pedestrians on the street, and there is no business in the shops. It is really cold this day.
But he heard the sound of horseshoes, and saw a fast horse entering through the city gate and heading straight to the south of the city.
Get off the horse at a house, the word "Jiang Zhai" hangs on the main gate of the house, and there are many small bridges, flowing water, pavilions, terraces and corridors inside, and the layout is ingenious and patchwork, giving people infinite beautiful enjoyment.
The house occupies a large area, which shows the financial resources of the owner.
The gray-robed man stepped forward to knock on the door, and the boy who heard the sound opened the door a crack, and when he saw someone coming, he immediately opened it wide, and said with a smile, "Butler Ning is back!"
Butler Ning hummed, gave him the reins, and asked in a low voice, "Master is in the study?"
While leading the horse, the servant replied, "Yes, the master ordered you to come back and look for him."
Steward Ning didn't delay any more after hearing the words. He walked through the cave door and the long corridor in a coir raincoat, and walked quickly to the courtyard in the center of the house.There is no special decoration here, simple and elegant, with a sense of comfort everywhere.
In the study room on one side, the purpose of entering is the man sitting in front of the desk and writing with a brush in his hand. He is dressed in black, which further highlights the aura of his superiors. People dare not underestimate.Naturally, people ignored his pale complexion.
There is a brazier burning in the house, and servants watch it from time to time, so as not to let the fire go out and the owner be frozen.
After a while, there was a regular knock on the door, and the man said in a low voice without looking up, "Come in."
When the people outside the door heard the words, they pushed the door open and went in, closed the door behind their backs, untied the coir raincoat they were wearing and put it on the side shelf, and waited until the air-conditioning was gone before they went in, knelt down and said, "Master."
"Well, get up." Jiang Chuan put down his pen, his expression indifferent, "You all go down!"
The servant standing on the side immediately retreated quietly, not forgetting to close the door.
When there were only the two of them in the study, Jiang Chuan said, "Ning Jiu, how was your trip?"
"Your subordinate is lucky." Ning Jiu reached out and took out a piece of paper from her pocket, stepped forward a few steps, put the paper on the table, and then returned it.
Jiang Chuan didn't like people touching his body, this was well known by everyone who worked in the Jiang residence.
Tang Xia Ning Jiu stood with his head bowed.
Jiang Chuan opened the paper, skimmed the words on it at a glance, and after a few breaths, he put the paper aside without saying yes or no.
"Don't let anyone know about this!" Seeing Ning Jiu's answer, Jiang Chuan coughed and said, "Thank you for your hard work, take a good rest today."
Ning Jiu frowned upon hearing the sound, raised her head, and saw Jiang Chuan's face was pale, obviously feeling unwell, "Master...how is your health?"
They were originally from the capital city, and they came to Qingzhou City to recuperate Jiang Chuan's illness. Qingzhou is located in the east, and it belongs to wood.Although he didn't believe this, Jiang Chuan's health had indeed improved in the past six months or so.Coupled with the meticulous care of the people around him, Jiang Chuan has not been seen sick for a long time, why is he coughing again?Could it be that he caught a cold?
Jiang Chuan waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and then coughed twice in a muffled voice.This time Ning Jiu was in a hurry. If someone else coughed, it really wasn't a big deal. He could drink two doses of medicine at most.But when it happened to Jiang Chuan, no matter how small the illness was, it was a big deal!
"Master!" Ning Jiu looked anxious, violated Jiang Chuan's order for the first time, opened the door, and said to the servant outside, "Go quickly, and invite Doctor Lu here."
Facing Jiang Chuan's displeased gaze, Ning Jiu knelt down and said, "Master, you should go back to your dorm first, it's getting colder here after all. After Dr. Lu finishes diagnosing the master's condition, the subordinates will go to receive the punishment."
Jiang Chuan sighed, and knew that this person was doing it for his own good, but there was no need to be so nervous, "Okay, the punishment will be waived, I will go back by myself in a while, you go down first!"
Although Ning Jiu was unwilling in his heart, he also knew that Jiang Chuan was one-sided. Since he didn't punish him, it meant that he would definitely ask Dr. Lu to take a pulse.
Feeling at ease, Ning Jiu bowed and said goodbye.
Before turning around, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the peony still placed by the window, a bare sapling, and he didn't know what to look at.
In fact, when they arrived in Qingzhou City, the place they arranged earlier was not here, but the house opposite, but Jiang Chuan didn't like it and insisted on living here.It just so happened that the owner of the house had something to do in his hometown and was anxious to sell the house, so they bought it.
According to Jiang Chuan's preferences, the house was redesigned and furnished.Jiang Chuan was noncommittal about this, but ordered someone to transplant the peonies planted in the courtyard into pots and put them on the window sill of the study.Strangely, there was more than one peony planted in the courtyard, but Jiang Chuan had someone transplant one, and the rest were discarded.
Not long after Ning Jiu left, someone knocked on the door, saying that Doctor Lu had arrived.
Jiang Chuan had no choice but to clean up the table and case, took the cloak handed over by the servant, and put a hand stove in his hand, covered it tightly, and looked in the direction of the window, and then went out.After a few steps, I arrived at the dormitory, and removed these things again.
In this regard, Jiang Chuan was also very helpless, obviously he didn't have a few steps, and he felt tired if he insisted on going through such troubles. In the end, Doctor Lu made a decision, and that's it!Jiang Chuan's opinion was ignored.People outside were terrified when they saw him, and no one dared to speak loudly in front of him, but the few around him, since he was poisoned, have become less and less afraid of him.
In the lobby, Dr. Lu was sitting on a chair. When he saw Jiang Chuan coming in, he looked at his face and frowned.After Jiang Chuan sat down, he immediately checked Jiang Chuan's pulse. During this time, Jiang Chuan coughed a few more times.
After a while, Doctor Lu withdrew his hand and removed the cloth towel that was placed on Jiang Chuan's wrist. On the table beside him, there were papers and pens brought up by his servants. Without saying a word, Doctor Lu wrote a prescription with a pen, and ordered the servants, saying, "According to this prescription, go and make medicine for your master. After drinking the medicine, just take a nap and you'll be fine."
After finishing everything, he glanced at Jiang Chuan and said, "Don't work too hard, your body won't be able to hold on."
"Thank you, Dr. Lu." Jiang Chuan bowed his hands to thank him. Dr. Lu returned the gift, told the servants around Jiang Chuan, and left with the medicine box.
Half an hour later, the medicine came, and it tasted bitter. Jiang Chuan didn't hesitate, picked up the bowl and drank it, but frowned slightly.Then he stood up and walked into the room.
Jiang Chuan does this kind of personal work by himself, he is not used to outsiders getting too close to him.
Day by day, the temperature gradually warmed up, and with the arrival of the last snow, winter also came to an end.There are more people coming and going on the streets of Qingzhou City, and the shops are also bustling.
Jiang Zhai is still the same as usual, the difference is that the peony plant in the study has begun to change, its branches have tender green leaves, at first it is a little small, after a few days, the green leaves are all over the branches, its There are small leaves on the top, the surface is green, but the back is light green, without any hairs.
Its changes were seen by Jiang Chuan who observed it every day.
A few days later, the sky cleared up, and the bright sun hung in the blue sky, shining on the earth, giving people a long-lost warmth.
Ning Jiu suggested going out for a while, as staying indoors is not good for your health.He didn't have much hope at first, but unexpectedly, Jiang Chuan agreed, and as he walked away, he said, "Bring out that pot of peonies on the window sill too."
Jiang Chuan sat down by the pavilion near the water. After staying in the house for a long time, he felt his eyes dazzled when he came out to look outside.Ning Jiu brought the peonies over. Looking at the green peonies on the stone table, Jiang Chuan became interested and ordered someone to fetch the chess pieces.
The servants moved very quickly, and they were sent over in a blink of an eye. Jiang Chuan said that he was staying here, and the rest of the people retreated.
Holding black pieces in one hand and white pieces in the other, Jiang Chuan played chess against himself, his eyes falling on peony from time to time, with a gentle smile in his eyes.
The happy time is always short. Half an hour later, Ning Jiu stood outside the pavilion hesitantly, wondering if he should go in and disturb Jiang Chuan.
But Jiang Chuan woke up from the memory, saw Ning Jiu, asked him to come in, and said, "What's wrong?"
Ning Jiu took out the letter, hesitated for a while, and said, "This is a letter from the Patriarch."
Seeing Jiang Chuan's gloomy face instantly, Ning Jiu immediately knelt down, only to hear a cold voice in front of him, "Bring it!"
Ning Jiu didn't dare to look up, put the letter on the stone table, then lowered her head again.Jiang Chuan had said before that any letter from the Patriarch should not be told to him, just be burned, but this time the person who delivered the letter said that the letter must be seen by Jiang Chuan. He knew that person and was the confidant of the Patriarch. After thinking for a while, Ning Jiu handed the letter to Jiang Chuan.
Jiang Chuan looked at the letter, the air pressure in his body was extremely low, as if he was suppressing something, he read it with a sullen face, put the letter back in the envelope, and said, "Go and receive the punishment!"
"Yes." Ning Jiu breathed a sigh of relief and backed out.
Disturbed by this incident, Jiang Chuan lost the mood to play chess, ordered someone to clean up, and took Mudan back to the study.
The first thing I did when I got to the study was to burn the letter.
When the study room became quiet again, I don't know if it was an illusion, but the peony on the window sill seemed to move.
But he heard the sound of horseshoes, and saw a fast horse entering through the city gate and heading straight to the south of the city.
