Xijing Chronicle

The winter snow melts, spring goes to summer, and half a year passes in the blink of an eye.

In the genius doctor's valley, a young man with his upper body bare, exposing his lean and powerful muscles, holding a sharpened wooden stick in his hand, dancing vigorously.

At this moment, a few leaves shot towards him as fast as lightning. The man's eyes moved, and he turned back to avoid the first two leaves. Without panic, he twisted his waist and dodged again with an unbelievable bending down. Just as his toes touched the ground, the last three leaves came one after another. All the boards were blocked, he frowned slightly, and stepped aside as fast as he could, but unfortunately, although he dodged the two leaves above, he was still hit on the leg.

"Boy of the Jin family, although you have made remarkable progress, you are not strong enough!" An old man with white beard and hair jumped down from the tree with a smile and stepped on Jin Xuenian's shoulder. Jin Xuenian staggered, the old man "tsk With a sound, it landed lightly and steadily on the ground.

"Mr. Yu," Jin Xuenian stood firm, put away the wooden stick, and saluted, "Why are you here, are you willing to hand over the ice plant snow lotus to me?"

"Stinky boy, I have to ask you once a month when we meet, is it annoying?" the old genius doctor waved his hand angrily, "I am here to deliver medicine to you, old man, you should be honored to have me deliver medicine in person, Here, the medicine is here, take it quickly."

Jin Xuenian took the dark red pill and water bowl, her eyes darkened.

Since the Gu worms in his body were taken out a year ago, he has to take this medicine every month. At first, the medicine was still a medicinal soup when he was in Prince Xian's mansion, but it was made into pills when he came here.

Trapped in Miracle Doctor Valley for more than half a year, he had nothing else to do except eating and practicing martial arts all day long. In order to reduce thoughts and worries, Jin Xuenian would also read some medical books in his spare time. I have read all the medical books, among other things, if I go out to open a pharmacy now and see some minor injuries and pains, then I can definitely handle it.

But the more he understands the pharmacology, the more doubts he has in his heart. This pill tastes sweet and slightly cool in his mouth, and has an astringent rusty smell. Other than that, it tastes like some ordinary medicines that nourish qi and blood. What exactly was added to heal his broken body?

"Why are you standing there stupidly, brat? Take medicine." The old genius doctor got impatient and couldn't help but grab the pill again. Taking advantage of Jin Xuenian's unpreparedness, he pinched the acupoint on his jaw and forced him to open his mouth. Just stuffed the pills in.

Jin Xuenian was distracted by his actions, and coughed several times while holding her throat, and finally recovered after drinking water.

"Thank you, Mr. Yu."

"Old Mr. Yu, Mr. Yu, it's really ugly," the old genius doctor rolled his eyes, "Stinky boy, are you willing to enter my valley of genius doctors? There are even more exquisite martial arts skills here, as long as you are willing to worship the old man as a teacher, the old man will definitely teach you all of them!"

"Thank you Mr. Yu for your kindness, but this junior doesn't want to enter the valley of genius doctors."

"Neither one nor two are willing to enter my Valley of Miraculous Doctors, what's wrong with my Valley of Miraculous Doctors?!" Seeing the excellent martial arts seedlings unable to be accepted as his disciples, the old genius doctor was heartbroken.

"The junior came to the genius doctor Gu Ben just to get the snow lotus, but was trapped here by the senior for more than half a year. I don't know when the senior can give the snow lotus to the junior, so the junior can go back quickly."

"If you go back, you will know how to go back!" The old genius doctor rolled his eyes in disbelief, and was about to say something more, when he heard horseshoes outside the valley, his expression became solemn, and he used his lightness kung fu to rush out of the valley.Jin Xuenian's heart moved slightly, and she followed.

When I came to Taniguchi, I saw someone outside touched the mechanism, and the two tightly stitched boulders slowly moved away. A slender young man with a mask on his face came in leading a horse. It was none other than the genius doctor Gu Li. Yu Wuyan, the little miracle doctor.

"Master!" Yu Wuyan hurriedly opened her mouth when she saw the old genius doctor, and was about to say something when she suddenly saw Jin Xuenian who was following behind the old genius doctor, her movements paused slightly, and her words changed, "You are also here , I happened to be looking for you."

The old genius doctor asked, "What happened?"

"I just came back from Xijing. Huaisheng got the news that Quan Chengen died suddenly at home half a month ago. If He Ze dared to attack Quan Chengen, he must have obtained the will, so Huaisheng sent Ye Jiaer to lead several A good hand went to block He Ze's people, but unfortunately Ye Jia'er has not heard from him since then, the spies heard the news yesterday, saying that He Ze's men are almost arriving in Xijing, Ye Jia'er may have had an accident," he sighed, his eyes fell back On Jin Xuenian, "General Chen is still the Emperor's man, leading an army of [-] troops stationed in the barracks outside the city, and he can't move easily, while Chu Tingya followed Uncle Ming to the fiefdom of King Xian half a year ago. Xunzhou is secretly recruiting troops, and now Huaisheng is a little short of manpower..."

"No, no, boy Jin has only just completed his martial arts, and he is not yet mature. Wouldn't it be a death sentence to let him go now!" Before Yu Wuyan finished speaking, the old genius doctor couldn't help but yelled.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Jin Xuenian said decisively: "I'll go!"

"Master," Yu Wuyan looked at the old genius doctor, "This is also Huaisheng's meaning, he... He also found out some things related to the Jin family, that's why we let Young Master Jin go back, and we have to discuss those things face to face. He said."

"Okay, okay, I'm old, I can't care about the affairs of you young people anymore." The old genius doctor turned his back angrily, and stopped looking at them.

Yu Wuyan shook her head helplessly, and handed the reins to Jin Xuenian: "I just changed this horse before entering the valley, so you can just ride it."

"Thank you," Jin Xuenian took the reins, but didn't get on the horse immediately, but said hesitantly, "That snow lotus..."

"Didn't it all be eaten by you!" The old miracle doctor glared at him, "How do you think your skill has improved so fast, do you think the medicine you take every month is an ordinary tonic!"

Jin Xuenian was dumbfounded.

Needless to say, this must be what Gu Huaisheng meant. That person... always arranges everything properly before he realizes it. I can probably guess why he sent me to the Valley of Miraculous Doctors half a year ago—— In the past six months, the current situation outside has been turbulent. The virtuous king has contacted many courtiers and important officials in secret, and his power has a faint tendency to rival the emperor. Not only that, but also the remnants of the previous dynasty that were eradicated by the court more than 20 years ago. It reappeared and called itself the "Xinglong Club". It appeared mysteriously and had frequent activities. The whole Xijing was stirred up like a whirlpool by these three forces, with open guns and hidden arrows, and dangers everywhere.

Gu Huaisheng must have foreseen this a long time ago, that's why he sent himself out of Xijing half a year ago and was trapped in the Valley of Miraculous Doctors.Thinking of this, Jin Xuenian couldn't help pursing her lips and clenching her fists, her heart aroused for no reason.What did he think of himself?Could it be that she is so unbearable that she doesn't even have the qualifications to follow him and advance and retreat with him, and can only be protected as a woman? !

Xijing, Xianwang Mansion.

Gu Huaisheng put down the hair in his hand, and rubbed the center of his brows. The scrolls recording various affairs in Xunzhou and Xijing almost flooded the desk, and he had not slept for many days.

"Brother Gu, drink some ginseng soup." Xue Zinu walked in carefully holding a soup bowl.

"Thank you."

Gu Huaisheng took the soup bowl and was about to drink it, but when he heard the horseshoes outside the yard stop abruptly, he was moved for some reason, and his movements were half a beat slower. Before he could move, he saw a tall and straight figure walking in with hot wind.

I haven't seen him for half a year, and the person in front of me seems to have grown a little taller again. He is no longer thin and thin like before. He has a strong figure, broad shoulders and long legs, and his every move is full of hidden strength.

He stood at the door, just blocking the incoming sunlight, his outline was covered with a bright halo, but his face was blurred by the backlight.When the four eyes met, time stood still in a trance.

"Brother Jin! You're back!" Xue Zinu's excited voice broke the tacit silence, and the two who had fallen into unknown thoughts suddenly came back to their senses. Gu Huaisheng smiled slightly and said softly: "You're back. "

Jin Xuenian stood there silently, and suddenly realized with some sadness that the person in front of him was just a calm smile and a familiar and indifferent greeting, and the resentment and anger accumulated in the valley for more than half a year disappeared in an instant. Only the secret sadness and joy are left behind.

After being separated for half a year, the originally hazy and obscure thoughts became clear instead, brewing and fermenting in countless quiet nights, longing grows and entangles like vines, and admiration is like a barb on it, piercing into the flesh, strangling the blood and bones, avoiding There is no escape, no escape.

He originally thought that there was a lot to say in this meeting, at least he had to ask Gu Huaisheng why he sent him out, but until now, he suddenly realized that there was no need to say those words.

After a long silence, he took a step forward slightly, smelling the faint scent of medicine in the air, his eyes fell on the soup bowl on the table, and he couldn't help frowning slightly.

Ginseng, Alisma, osmanthus, licorice, rhubarb... Although the herbs cannot be completely distinguished, it can be seen that this is clearly a prescription for regulating stomach problems.

"What happened to your stomach?"

Gu Huaisheng never thought that he would say this in the first sentence, so he couldn't help but smile after being stunned for a while: "It's nothing serious, by the way, Zi Nu, I asked the kitchen to freeze a bowl of sour plum juice, you go and get it for Brother Jin Antipyretic."

"it is good!"

Xue Zinu rushed into the scorching sun heartlessly, and Gu Huaisheng nodded to Jin Xuenian at the empty seat opposite, "Come, sit."

Jin Xuenian sat down as he said, Gu Huaisheng looked at his face calmly, seeing that most of the hidden anger in his eyes had disappeared when he rushed in, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, he raised his hand flatteringly and pushed the prunes on the table over: "Do you want to eat something?"

"Need not."

"How have you been in the Valley of Divine Doctors for the past six months?"

"very good."

"How's your marksmanship doing? Have you eaten snow lotus? Does it work?"

It's okay not to mention these, but when Jin Xuenian mentioned it, the anger that had been pent up in his heart for half a year came out again, he glanced at Gu Huaisheng, and squeezed out four words: "Don't worry about it."

Gu Huaisheng was choked by him, and thought a little bit unpleasantly, the old doctor Yu was still out of tune as always, how long did he send Jin Xuenian there, and he didn't see any changes when he came back, only his temper...

After not seeing Gu Huaisheng speak again for a long while, Jin Xuenian felt a little apprehensive, wondering if his tone was too aggressive just now, after all, Gu Huaisheng was doing it for his own good...

After holding back and holding back, he still couldn't hold back, and changed the subject first: "Little doctor Yu said that you called me back because you have something to tell me."

"Oh yes, I almost didn't think to tell you," Gu Huaisheng came back to his senses, biting a dried plum, and said slowly, "Do you remember your biological mother?"

Jin Xuenian was startled, and shook her head: "I was still very young when she passed away, so I only had a vague impression..."

That's good, Gu Huaisheng heaved a sigh of relief, if Jin Xuenian had a good relationship with his biological mother, he really didn't know how to speak.

"Seven months ago, after you went to the Valley of Miraculous Doctors, rumors suddenly spread in the neighborhood of Jingzhong, exposing all the things that the Jin family assisted He Ze back then, and He Zechu immediately took measures when he heard about it. , issued a strict order to prohibit further mention of this matter, but there are people behind the scenes who are fueling the flames, and He Ze's order has no effect at all, but spread more and more widely, and soon the whole country knew about it, and the whole country was shocked."

After saying such a long paragraph in one breath, Gu Huaisheng took a sip of sweet tea, and suddenly heard the person on the opposite side ask calmly: "Is this why you rushed me to the Valley of Miraculous Doctors?"

"……Yes."

"Because you are behind the scenes, aren't you?"

Gu Huaisheng lowered his eyes. He knew that Jin Xuenian was smart and intelligent, but he didn't expect to be so sharp. However, he could see the things he tried to downplay in a few words.

He took another sip of tea, suppressed the panic that suddenly rose in his heart, and said calmly when he spoke again: "Yes. No matter what the purpose of the people behind the scenes is, this matter is nothing less than a blow to He Ze. Since I can also benefit, so naturally I want to help him.”

Yes, this matter was a heavy blow to He Ze, but why not to the Jin family?The reputation of the loyal heroes of the Jin family has been ruined. Those who have passed away are fine and don't have to bear the contempt of the world, but for the Jin family who are still alive, the road ahead will be even more difficult...

Jin Xuenian said with difficulty: "So, you sent me away because you are afraid that I will stop you?"

There is this reason...

Gu Huaisheng closed his eyes. At first he sent Jin Xuenian away because he sensed that Xijing was about to go into chaos, so he sent him out of the whirlpool center in order to protect him. But later, after the rumors spread, he ordered to add fuel to the flames. At that time, he suddenly felt lucky. Fortunately, Jin Xuenian wasn't here, and he was suddenly afraid of seeing Jin Xuenian's injured and disfigured face, so he didn't pick him up for a long time.

On the surface, it seems that this time is good for Jin Xuenian, allowing him to escape the difficult period of time, but in fact, is it not that he is avoiding?

He was afraid of seeing that the trust and dependence in those eyes were no longer there, and that those eyes were full of despair and hatred. With the precipitation of half a year, Gu Huaisheng thought that he could face it calmly, but at this moment, no matter how calm and calm he appeared on the surface, his heart still couldn't bear it. Still can't help but panic, it's almost impossible for him to feel this emotion, but it happened at this moment...

His brain was spinning rapidly, searching for words to defend himself, but in the end he had nothing to say, the knuckles of his fingers holding the cup turned blue, he closed his eyes and sighed, "I'm sorry."

"Gu Huaisheng, I'm also a man." Jin Xuenian looked at him and said word by word, "I'm not as weak and helpless as you imagined. I've endured 14 years of torture. Why do you think I survived this time?" Don't go?!"

"I'm not a woman, you don't have to try to keep me behind you!" After a pause, Jin Xuenian desperately suppressed the emotions that were about to overflow in her heart, her voice trembling slightly, "Gu Huaisheng, I still owe you my life, I want to stand by your side..."

I want to walk forward with you, instead of just standing behind you and looking at your back.

But how can these words be spoken, he can only say in the end: "I want to stand by your side...to repay you."

Without the blame and disappointment he imagined, Gu Huaisheng raised his head in astonishment, and saw the man opposite him with pale lips, but his eyes were unusually bright. Looking at these eyes, an inexplicable and familiar impulse suddenly surged in his heart, just like the man he was in back then. It was the same in Fenglin, but it was more menacing than before. Almost without thinking about it, he leaned out and pinched Jin Xuenian's wrist, and pulled hard...

"Brother Gu! Brother Jin! I'll come back..."

Coincidentally, Xue Zinu stepped into the room at this time, he stared dumbfounded at the two men stacked in front of him, and opened his mouth after a while: "..."

Gu Huaisheng: "..."

Jin Xuenian: "..."

Stared at by two pairs of dark and deep eyes, the cold sweat on Xue Zinu's forehead was about to flow out, and he burst out with a strong desire to survive in an instant, running faster than a rabbit: "That, that, that, I suddenly remembered that there is still something to do." Let's go first, two big brothers, you continue!"

Before I left, I didn’t forget to bring it to the door...

The charm in the room disappeared, and it fell into a strange silence. I don't know how long it took, but it was Jin Xuenian who made the first move.He pushed the man on him hard, frowned, and lowered his head to adjust the cuffs that had been flattened long ago. Gu Huaisheng also came back to his senses, and cleared his throat in a concealed manner: "That... just said that."

"You haven't said anything about my biological mother..."

"Oh yes, your biological mother, by the way, your biological mother is actually a descendant of the former royal family. I don't know if you have heard of an organization called 'Xinglonghui'. Most of them are the remnants of the former dynasty. It has always existed, opposed to the imperial court, and waited for an opportunity to revive the former court. 25 years ago, your father was ordered to destroy the Xinglong Society. At that time, he took a fancy to your mother, snatched her back, and secretly brought her into the mansion. inside."

Jin Xuenian didn't expect that there would be such a thing from the past, but now knowing these things is actually meaningless...

"Your mother actually married someone before she was brought back to the Jin Mansion. That man was her childhood sweetheart. After she gave birth to you, she has been obsessed with that person. She pretended to please General Jin in the Jin Mansion, but finally found her Opportunity escaped, returned to her ex-husband, and gave birth to a child for that man. General Jin searched for her for two full years. When he found out that she had given birth to a child for someone else, he was furious, killed the man, and killed your mother. When you were tied back to the Jin Mansion, your mother was in so much grief that she didn't think about food and drink, and died of depression not long after."

Jin Xuenian's eyes widened, and Gu Huaisheng said slowly, "So, in fact, you still have a half-brother who is still alive. I wonder if you want to see him."
