It has been several months since Fei Su was ordered to go to Chai Sang to investigate the salt merchants. If there hadn't been something wrong in Jiangling City and there was no one available in Beisi, he wouldn't have rushed back to Jiangling in such a hurry.

The twilight is vast, and the glow is accompanied by jade.

Looking from a distance from the official road, high walls and cornices, the city gate is solemn and solemn.In the gradually darkening sky, the red lanterns hanging under the eaves are like two orange-red guiding lights.

Although there is no curfew in Jiangling, the gates of the city will be closed every night.After unitary hour, unless there is an urgent document of [-] miles, it is impossible to enter or leave the city gate.

On the turret, soldiers held red-tasseled guns and stood at ten paces.

The flocculent clouds spread out from the distant skyline accompanied by the sunset. The sun hangs on a corner of the mountain and has not yet set, and a corner of the silver-white moon disk has been exposed in the clouds.

The moonlight is like silk like streamer, and the water is dyed like light clouds.

When Fei Su and his party hurried to the gate of the city, the moonlight had already faintly revealed.The sound of horseshoes was accompanied by a slight vibration, and the shadow of the lantern on the stone slab also shook.

"Who is coming"

On the city tower, between light and darkness, a figure gradually elongated under the moonlight.It's the patrol envoy who is in charge of guarding the city gate tonight.

Fei Su tightened the reins, and the followers behind him also stopped.

"My lord, it's from Nan Si." A follower approached with a horse and said in a low voice.

Fei Su casually stroked the rein in his hand a few times, "Go."

The entourage took the order, got off the horse, and walked quickly to the gate of the city.

"Open the city gate" he showed the token.

Under the orange light, the intricately patterned silver token glowed coldly.The soldiers guarding the city took a quick look, and they broke into a cold sweat with fright. They didn't dare to ask more questions, and quickly ordered someone to open the city gate.

The sound of horseshoes was getting closer and closer, and under the cold moonlight, Fei Su's indifferent face appeared in front of the city gate guards.He was born with a face like a beautiful jade, fair complexion, dressed in red clothes and crane pendulum, with a black iron long sword on his waist, and his breath was as cold as ice.

The patrolling envoys of the Southern Division on the city tower felt their backs tremble when he saw them, and they couldn't help but retreat while pressing their swords.

Fei Su looked away and drove his horse into the city.

The red lanterns in the city have already been hung up.Under the dim light, there were only two or three figures in the distance, and there was not even a single figure on the official road from the city gate to the main street.

The stars in the night sky are like a sea, and the silver plate hangs.

At the corner of the main street, a carriage came from nowhere and hurried towards the gate of the city.

The sound of the wheels was very clear in the silence of the night.Fei Su looked up and saw an ordinary carriage parked in front of the inner gate. The driver in a gray robe jumped out of the carriage and was stopped by the gate guards.

"This is my lord's token, please do me a favor." The coachman handed over the bronze medal in his hand, speaking very eagerly.

The guard took the token and glanced at it, then looked at the family emblem on the carriage, "Why don't you leave the city earlier now that the garrison time is over, come back tomorrow morning."

"My master is in the Puhan Temple in the suburbs, and there are sick people in the carriage, so I really can't afford to wait, sir, please help me."

The guards also know that human life is at stake, but the rules of the city tower are strict and no exceptions can be made.

Seeing his perplexed expression, the coachman took out a bag of silver taels from his sleeve, "My lord, please help me."

The guard hesitated for a while, but instead of taking it, he asked, "The patient in the carriage?"

"It's the patient who was sent to the hospital just now, and he's already burned unconscious."

"What happened?" A voice came from a distance.

The two looked up and saw a frugal envoy in a red dress with a silver-white hair tie standing under the city wall a few steps away.The light of the tassel lanterns is very dim, and the wind blows, and it will not stop.

"My lord, this is the carriage of Dr. Liao's family in the city." The guard said respectfully.

Dr. Liao is a famous doctor in Jiangling City comparable to the reincarnation of Hua Tuo. It is rumored that he used to be an imperial physician in the palace, but he was released from Shangjing because he offended the nobles.

The patrol envoy came over with a cold expression, his right hand held the long sword on his waist, and he felt full of oppression as he moved around in the hem of his clothes.

"The one in the carriage is a sick person," the envoy asked.

"Yes." The coachman replied nervously.

The frugal envoy walked to the carriage, and was about to raise his hand to lift the curtain of the sedan chair, when a cold voice suddenly sounded, "I remember that the family emblem of the Tu family is woven with a pattern of peonies."

The frugal envoy's countenance changed upon hearing this, and he immediately raised his hand in salute, "I have seen the commanding envoy."

Holding the sword in hand, Fei Su came out from the dim light of the lantern.The red clothes are like blood, the crane pendulum is like snow, his expression is extremely cold, and the aura around him is even more repulsive.

"After three quarters of the garrison time, it's time to watch the night."

The frugal envoy didn't dare to ask more questions, so he immediately turned around and took people to patrol at night.

"What are you still standing here for?"

There was a cold reprimand, and the panicked guards didn't dare to stay for a moment.

The place at the gate of the city was a bit dark, and under the cold moonlight, Fei Su lifted the curtain of the carriage.

The inside of the car was dark, only the silhouette of Yun Yi with long sleeves could be vaguely seen, and his faint breathing.Fei Su was thoughtful, and asked, "You are the son of the Huayuan Marquis Mansion"

The driver's expression became even more nervous, "If you tell your lord, the young master is seriously ill."

"Who are you?" Fei Su interrupted him.

"The servant is the housekeeper of Dr. Liao's house."

"Where's his maid?" How did the young master of Huayuanhou's mansion end up like this?

Fei Su hadn't returned to Jiangling for several months, so naturally he didn't know what happened in Huayuanhou's mansion.

That day Tu Dan was seriously ill, so Qiuyue asked the eldest lady to invite a doctor, their master and servant came to Jiangling for the first time, and they were not familiar with the place, how could they know where the doctor was.

No matter how much the eldest wife doesn't like concubines to have children, she can't let her husband's concubine die of illness in the house. Before Qiuyue finished crying, she personally invited the imperial physician who was appointed to the city.However, the imperial physician was also at a loss. Seeing that all the doctors in the city had been invited, Tu Dan still couldn't get sick. The eldest wife threw him into the plum garden to fend for himself.

Chunhua Yingxia was taken to be disciplined by the housekeeper, and she doesn't know if she will return.Seeing the attitude of the Houfu, Qiuyue took out all of Tu Dan's savings in desperation, and walked all over the street to find the doctor.That's how she found Doctor Liao.

"It's just that my master went to Puhan Temple to fulfill his vow the day before yesterday. The young master couldn't wait, and the old slave couldn't bear it, so he wanted to take the young master to Puhan Temple overnight to find the master."

Fei Su rubbed the long sword on his waist a few times, and asked, "Doctor Liao, can you bring medicinal materials with you?"

The coachman was taken aback, "This, this"

"I know your good intentions, but if people really get there, they will have to wait for death." Fei Su said in a cold voice without mercy.

"come"

"Your subordinate is here." The patrol envoy of the Beisi stood beside the carriage at some point.

"Take my warrant and go to Puhan Temple to invite Dr. Liao back." His voice paused, "Quick."

The city gate was wide open, and in the night, only the sound of horseshoes was getting farther and farther away.

"This old slave thanked you sir." The coachman choked up and was about to kneel down to Fei Su.
