The flames behind Liang Zhaoge were still beeping, beeping, and the flames flickered vaguely behind him, casting elongated black shadows under their feet, winding straight to Zhu Jiuci's feet.

Liang Zhaoge walked very slowly, his hands hanging limply by his sides, covered by his wide sleeves.The robes were still open facing each other, as if they had never been worn properly, and soft silk was wrapped around the waist, which was tied very tightly, making the waist slender.

The shadow gradually climbed onto Zhu Jiuci's calf, and Liang Zhaoge approached.

Darkness, brazier, shadow, white gauze, him.

Fear surged over his head in an instant, Zhu Jiuci turned around suddenly, smashed open the wooden door with all his might and staggered out.

Behind him, Liang Zhaoge stopped, squatted down slowly, picked up the peach blossom crisps with his fingertips, and dropped them down with a rustle.He squatted on the spot, burying his head in his knees.

It was already dark, but the lanterns on the streets of the capital had not yet been hung up, and only a few small shops lit their lights early.Zhu Jiuci was walking alone, the street was full of people, and the ground was full of dark shadows.When Zhu Jiuci saw the shadow, he thought of Liang Zhaoge, and his heart was frightened again. He immediately turned into the alley.

The narrow alley was pitch black, and he always felt that there were furry things crawling in that dark invisible place, and their companions were burned to death in the brazier of Red Square a moment ago.

Zhu Jiuci suddenly realized that for a lunatic, any plan conceivable by the human mind has absolutely no possibility of success. What kind of "rebellion" wants to refuse or welcome, what sugar-coated cannonballs, it is a joke at this time. Looking for a way out of thinking, there is no one more stupid than him in this world.

The only thing Zhu Jiuci wants to do now is to escape from here, maybe go to discuss with the Duke and Mother, and move away from the capital, the farther the better.

Eyes adapted to the darkness, Zhu Jiuci lowered his head and kicked the stones. When he looked up, he realized that the alley was a bit narrow, and the further he walked, the more gloomy he felt.Zhu Jiuci frowned, as if he had gone too far.

In the deep alley came the sound of bottles and jars being smashed to the ground. Zhu Jiuci stopped, and heard a man's heavy breathing in front of him, which seemed to be mixed with curses. From the sound of his staggering footsteps, he seemed to be an alcoholic .

The footsteps stopped suddenly, and the man's panting became rapid.

"Fuck, I'm lucky today, I caught a kitten." The voice flickered from far to near, as if it wasn't far away.

"Get out, I heard it first." In the darkness, there was a person who sniffed in the air and spit on the ground, "It's so fucking sweet."

Suddenly, an ugly face emerged from the darkness, with three scars across the nose, which was very terrifying. Zhu Jiuci glanced behind him in panic, he was still far away from the bright alley.

But, maybe you can rush out.

There are two people on the other side, and it is impossible to fight recklessly.Zhu Jiuci made a quick decision, and suddenly turned around and ran towards the alley.

There was a curse behind him, and then a wine jug was thrown at Zhu Jiuci's feet, and the shards of porcelain brushed against his ankles, and he felt the cold crumbs pour into the shoes.

Zhu Jiuci suppressed the fear in his heart, and ran towards the entrance of the alley with all his strength, and it was getting brighter and brighter.

But the sound of panting behind him was getting closer and closer, and the sound of breathing behind him moved from left to right, and he seemed to be caught.

"Lost, let me have a good time." The man's rough voice rang in his ears, and Zhu Jiuci was grabbed by the shoulder.

Zhu Jiuci slammed his elbow into the man's abdomen, and the man hit the wall with his back, as if he had hit something sharp, and fell down with a curse.

There was only one person left behind, Zhu Jiuci didn't dare to run in a straight line, he could feel the terrifying hands behind him, passing by his shoulder every time, and he was almost caught.

Difficult to hear swear words sounded behind him, hot flashes and foul breath sprayed in his ears, Zhu Jiuci felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.

Another wine jar was thrown over, and Zhu Jiuci felt a piece of broken porcelain cut his calf directly.

Suddenly he was gently moved by a cool hand, and then his eyes lit up with fiery red.

In the next moment, violent flames rose from the ground to a height of three feet.The foul-smelling man was burned to the face, roaring and rolling on the ground.

In this fiery bright, Zhu Jiuci slightly turned around to look at the person he was relying on.The flames reflected Liang Zhaoge's face flickeringly, like the flickering butter lamps in a Buddhist hall illuminating the compassionate face of the Buddha.

The phoenix eyes looked at the front with cold eyes, and the ugly soul was rolling in the flames.

Zhu Jiuci could see clearly that the person who was close to him threw the fire bag into the wine bank a moment ago and brewed the fire of hell with his own hands.

For some reason, Zhu Jiuci suddenly remembered the dead rat in the brazier.Whether it is in the eyes of the Buddha, there is no difference between the two in this fire.

Liang Zhaoge planned to send Zhu Jiuci back to the Duke's Mansion, but Zhu Jiuci did not dare to go back, so he slowly followed Liang Zhaoge to Hongfang.

He didn't dare to tell the Duke and Mrs. Guo about this for the time being, firstly because he was afraid that they would be worried, and secondly because the young Duke's status was embarrassing. If such embarrassing things spread, it might discredit the palace and the ministers. The third is that if this matter really spreads, if it gets bigger, it can be directly stabbed in front of the Holy Master.After all, the young master has a title on his body, so he has to report it layer by layer, and then investigate layer by layer, how many people will be harmed and suffer.

The night view of the capital is really beautiful. The lanterns are connected from the palace courtyard to the inner city, and then all the way to the outer city.At night, the entire capital city seems to be connected into one piece, with no distinction between inside and outside.

Therefore, Zhu Jiuci likes to call the place he lives in the capital only at night, while during the day he calls Sijiucheng lukewarmly.

Four palace gates and nine inner and outer city gates divided the capital into different places.

Liang Zhaoge was walking beside him, but suddenly stopped.Zhu Jiuci looked over suspiciously, and was hugged in the next moment.

"Liang Zhaoge!"

Liang Zhaoge ignored him, and walked quickly, his eyes searching on both sides of the street.After a while, Liang Zhaoge carried him into the hospital.

Being gently placed in the chair, Zhu Jiuci asked aloud, "How do you know I'm injured?"

Liang Zhaoge frowned when he heard this, and squatted down, "I'm sorry." He reached out and carefully lifted his inner robe.

The snow-white underpants were dotted with blood.

The doctor came over just in time, and Liang Zhaoge got up and was about to rush outside.Zhu Jiuci probably guessed what he was going to do, but the two drunkards had already been thrown at the gate of the yamen. After the madman passed, he didn't know what big trouble was going to happen, so Zhu Jiuci hurriedly called him to stop.

"It just looks horrible, just change the gauze and it will be fine."

Liang Zhaoge stopped, stopped at the door for a while, and finally turned around and walked back, half kneeling on the ground, carefully taking off Zhu Jiuci's shoes and socks.

"The drunkard dropped the wine jar, and the pieces of porcelain flew everywhere. I'm afraid that you might accidentally walk along with the pieces of porcelain, so don't scratch yourself. So I thought about finding a bright place to take a look." Liang Zhaoge Raising her head, her phoenix eyes stared at Zhu Jiuci, complaining, "I never wanted to be hurt so deeply."

Zhu Jiuci was looked at with a guilty conscience. He really didn't take the broken porcelain to heart. Although it scratched his skin, it didn't hurt very much. He thought maybe he made a few small cuts. A large piece.

"Stop chatting, you two, let's make room for the doctor."

Liang Zhaoge was patted on the shoulder by the doctor holding a tray, and he reluctantly moved aside.

The wounds are somewhat numerous, but most are not too deep.There was a long line scratched by a large piece of broken porcelain, and it was fine after applying the ointment, except for a few wounds that were scratched by small broken pieces of porcelain. Pick it out.

By the time it was fully bandaged, it was already midnight.

Liang Zhaoge hugged Zhu Jiuci, waiting for him to make his own decision.

"Is it okay to stay overnight?"

Liang Zhaoge pursed his lips and carried the man out without saying anything.

Zhu Jiuci didn't know why Liang Zhaoge suddenly stopped talking, and pursed his lips with a cold face, as if unhappy.So Zhu Jiuci also obediently became mute.The madman is not happy, that is a very scary thing.

Liang Zhaoge hugged Zhu Jiuci and stepped on the wooden ladder of Hongfang, stepping up step by step, the ancient wooden ladder creaked.Zhu Jiuci turned his head sideways, and through the gaps in the carved wooden railings, he could see the scenery downstairs getting farther away little by little, except for the huge red silk that remained unchanged, hanging on the side of the wooden ladder, regardless of whether he climbed up or down. No matter how high it is, it will always be there.

After going up to the second floor, Liang Zhaoge walked straight through his room, and carried the person into the empty room next door.

Zhu Jiuci thought of the brazier in his room, probably because of this Liang Zhaoge didn't bring him in.

Liang Zhaoge put the person in his arms on the couch, leaned over to look at him and asked, "Do you need to take care of the little prince..."

"No! No need!"

Liang Zhaoge raised his eyebrows and finished speaking, "...wash up."

Zhu Jiuci immediately blushed.

Liang Zhaoge also considered saving face for him, so he glanced at him and turned to go out.

Not a moment later, two young girls with clean faces and quick hands and feet came in holding the grooming utensils.Both of them called Zhu Jiuci "Little Grandpa" in unison, and then got busy without saying a word.

After lying down, the little girls covered the door and exited.The darkness suddenly shrouded, and the hearing became more sensitive.Although the sound insulation of the room is good, you can still vaguely hear the intoxicating sound of silk and bamboo downstairs.

Zhu Jiuci suddenly remembered that Liang Zhaoge seemed to play the piano well.

An elegant man once described it like this: when the seven strings sound, the empty valley echoes, the Sanskrit sounds are endless, the path is vaguely seen, accompanied by clear water and small stones, and mountains, forests and ancient temples can be seen everywhere.

It is said that hearing the piano knows people, and Liang Zhaoge's piano sound turns into foreign objects, clean and dust-free, then he himself... "Hiss," there was a faint tingling pain on his calf, and some fever, Zhu Jiuci shook his head, yes, how could Liang Zhaoge be that? In this way, the author of the original book must be writing nonsense again.

Since Liang Zhaoge sent him to his room, he never came to look for him again, and he didn't know why he was unhappy.Zhu Jiuci was thinking in a daze, unconsciously falling into a dream.

If you can look down on the capital, you will find that the night in the capital is divided into two halves, light and dark.Half of the life is brightly lit and noisy, and the other half is quiet and peaceful, and the age is long.

The hustle and bustle travels along the main road, accompanied by colored lights pouring down all the way, which is a bright belt in the dark.The dark squares divided by these bright bands are quiet residences, interspersed with alleys and alleys, where kind and simple people live.If it weren't for the festive festival, these ordinary people would never walk into those vertical and horizontal bright belts at night for the rest of their lives.

In the middle of the night, half asleep and half awake, Zhu Jiuci only felt that his calf was cold and comfortable, and it was not as painful and hot as before going to bed.Sure enough, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Beijing, an inconspicuous small medical clinic, has such superb medical skills.

He moved his body slightly, and suddenly realized that something cold was clinging to his calf.

Zhu Jiuci opened his eyes in panic, only to see Liang Zhaoge half-kneeling in front of the couch, holding the ointment in one hand, and rubbing it gently on his calf with the other.

There was a small candle beside him, the flame was not lit, but it was still carefully covered with a veil.

Liang Zhaoge looked over, met Zhu Jiuci's eyes, and immediately blocked the light of the small candle with his left hand, "It still woke up the young man. Can the candle be bright? Zhaoge blew it away."

"It's okay." Zhu Jiuci stopped him, "You..."

"The wound didn't feel good on the first night, so Zhaoge thought of coming to change the medicine in the middle of the night, and woke up the little father-in-law, please forgive me."

Zhu Jiuci looked at the person in the candlelight, the warm yellow candle made his face soft, beautiful in the bright part, gentle in the dark part.For some reason, he suddenly remembered that sentence, and there was nothing left.

"Thank you..." Zhu Jiuci lowered his head, "Zhaoge."

Liang Zhaoge smiled, and put away the bottles and jars, "People who don't know think Zhaoge is so capable. In just a few days, I got an apology and a thank you from the dignified little father-in-law of the capital."

Zhu Jiuci grabbed the corner of his clothes under the quilt, "It's true...thank you."

Liang Zhaoge leaned forward, with the candlelight behind him, his face half-sinked into the darkness, "Young master, aren't you afraid of Zhaoge?"

The medicinal fragrance of Qingle came domineeringly, Zhu Jiuci's breath was tight, and there was a buzzing in his head. He stared at Liang Zhaoge, his mind was empty, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Liang Zhaoge also looked at Zhu Jiuci, wondering what he was thinking.Zhu Jiuci was about to speak, but Liang Zhaoge got up and walked away.

The candle was blown out, leaving the room in darkness.

"My lord, I'm here."

The wooden door was gently pushed open, revealing a ray of light, and closed again.Return to darkness, silence.
