Hypocrites

The mother-of-pearl dowry box was opened and put aside, the luminous shell looked dim in sunny days, and the carved flying fairy in the moon palace was so polished that it fell off almost invisible.The velvet flower hairpin in the box is split in two, and the silk letter inside has been taken out. This dilapidated makeup box and old hairpin, like their owner, if they are still alive, are already beauties.

Cui Ji read the silk letter under the grid fan by the skylight, the words were small and dense, his eyes hurt from reading it, and tears flowed out, and he wiped it with his sleeve, the sleeve was soaked.

After reading the letter, he murmured to himself: "If I had known... I would have known..."

Thousands of dollars are hard to buy. I knew it earlier.

A voice outside Ge fan answered him: "What if I knew it earlier? Would I take him in and protect him? It's too late."

Cui Ji was stunned for a while, then asked: "Brother Shen Xian, why are you sharpening your knife? Do you want brother Yu to pay for his life?"

The one sitting outside facing the steps was indeed Shen Yu, wearing an outer shirt and half-uncovering the inner shirt, exposing the bandages wrapped around his chest.Because his scapula was injured and he was the most disobedient, he always liked to work his right hand, so the doctor hung his right hand around his neck, leaving only his left hand to guide him. At this time, he was holding a whetstone between his knees and rubbing a machete.

"I want to make the chicken lose its life," Shen Yu said with blank eyes, "Sister-in-law is stewing black-bone chicken at night, Brother Cui, if you have nothing to do, you can come and help, so you don't have to think about things and go crazy."

Cui Ji's son, Cui Xiaoxi, ran over from the courtyard crying, "Father! Father!" Cui Ji hurriedly accepted the silk letter and put the dowry on it.

"what happened?"

Cui Xiaoxi's round face was flushed from crying, and when he arrived at the steps, he couldn't climb up because the steps in the main room were too high, so he sat beside Shen Yu panting, and showed him half a white sesame candy in his hand: "Brother, grab me to eat the candy!"

Sure enough, there were teeth marks on the half of the candy.

Shen Yu put away the machete to prevent Cui Xiaoxi from messing around.Cui Ji criticized: "What's the point of fighting over a piece of candy? If someone wants half a piece of candy from you, you should give him the whole piece. This is what a gentleman does. Let alone an elder brother, two brothers should live in harmony. .”

Cui Xiaoxi said: "But he left tooth marks and saliva on my candy! Mother said you can't eat other people's saliva!"

Shen Yu couldn't help laughing, and took out a candied plum from his sleeve pocket with his left hand, and wanted to exchange that half of white sesame candy with Cui Xiaoxi.Xiao Xi weighed the pros and cons seriously, and thought that the sugar was no longer edible, but the plums were still edible, so he happily accepted it.

"It's probably because he refuses to drink his medicine properly," Shen Yu got up and said, "I'll go and see him."

There was a faint fragrance floating in the flower gallery, Shen Yu's empty robe sleeves were blown by the wind, his clothes were disheveled and his hair was also untidy, half draped over his shoulders, his black temples made his complexion sickly pale.

Walking outside the house, I heard Cui Xian's voice: "Your body is caused by internal injuries caused by external factors. Drinking medicine is essential. Look, there are orange peel and hawthorn in the bowl, which are not bitter at all... "

Another person said: "I said, young master, don't be picky, the internal organs are damaged, do you know how serious it is? The spleen and stomach are the source of qi and blood biochemistry, the foundation of acquired constitution, and the liver is in charge of storing blood and dredging it. Liver damage will damage eyesight, look at your eyesight is not working well now, dizzy and vomiting at every turn, and you still don't drink medicine."

Shen Yu blocked the light in front of the door, and everyone looked over.The medicine in the house was steaming, and Cui Xian was holding a black soup bowl in his hand. He couldn't persuade the medicine to take in these few days, and his beard was so anxious that his beard turned white. There was another doctor beside him, and he was also an acquaintance. It was Zhangyi Palace Imperial Medical Office Old Mr. Mai.

However, I have resigned from office a few days ago, and I plan to hang the pot to help the world and become a wandering doctor.

Liang Heng was nestled under the quilt sickly, seeing Shen Yu, the eyes of the three of them brightened.

"Drink your medicine well, and I'll give you some candy." Shen Yu tossed the half white sesame candy.

"Do you know what they use to cook the medicine?" Liang Heng said immediately, "There are chicken arrows! And Matong! Do you want to drink it?"

Mai Lao said: "Matong has a miraculous effect on pain relief. If you don't drink it, your internal organs will be so painful that you won't be able to sleep well at night."

Shen Yu said with a smile: "You tormenting the two old people like this, I think you are very energetic, it doesn't look like you are hurt."

Liang Heng was stunned, and suddenly remembered that Cui Xian had given up his studies at the academy in order to accompany him to recuperate from his injuries. Available anytime.

"Give me sugar." Liang Heng reminded Shen Yu, took the bowl and drank the medicine.The second boss breathed a sigh of relief.

Shen Yu leaned against the door, threw the sesame candy into his hand, exchanged winks with Mai Lao, and the two went outside to talk.

The spring is just right in the courtyard, and Yingge is melodious.

Shen Yudao: "If you hadn't given up and came to the rescue in Wangdu City, I'm afraid there will be no way to recover if it's too late."

Mai Laodao: "It's serious, the doctor is benevolent, there is no reason to see death and not save. Besides, it is not the old man who saved the young master, but you, Mr. Shen. The old man doesn't even think about it now. At that time, the emperor After the killer, the young master has little life left, Mr. Shen, are you reluctant to let go, and you must find someone to save you, or is there another reason?"

Shen Yu lowered his eyebrows and remained silent.In fact, he didn't know why.The terrifying appearance of Liang Heng bleeding from the seven orifices in the empress room of the Ming Hall often visited his dreams at night, and anyone who saw such a scene would think that Liang Heng had returned to the west.But the gods took pity on him and let him see the wine cup that rolled down the threshold - Duan Yanyou gave poisoned wine to kill Liang Heng, and the former emperor Liang Xuan also died of poisoned wine.

At that time, his three souls and seven souls all went with Liang Heng. He had no master at first, and he only hated Duan Yanyou for being paranoid and evil. He wanted Liang Heng to die no matter how Liang Xuan died, and to be buried with his father.But Liang Xuan drank the poisonous pepper wine, Shujiao shut the mouth and made people's throat paralyzed, and died of suffocation. If Liang Heng drank the pepper wine, how could he have the symptom of blood oozing from the ear?

Because of this lack of vitality, he rushed back to Wangdu City, secretly found Cui Xian, and through Cui Xian, he found Mai Lao, and finally saved Liang Heng's life.

Mai Laodao: "The Son of Heaven did take the wine of poisonous pepper from the medicine storehouse. I had a premonition for a long time, and later found out that it was to poison the young master. But the strange thing is that there is no toxin left in the young master's body. The reason for the feigned death is that When the viscera and six internal organs and the twelve meridians are shaken, the Ren meridian runs in the abdomen and is called the sea of ​​yin meridians, and the governor meridian runs in the back and is called the sea of ​​yang meridians. Vitality presents the appearance of chaos. Although it is also at stake, compared to the poisoned wine that kills instantly, there is still a glimmer of hope. I just don’t know, what is going on, what is going on here?”

At that time, only the Son of Heaven, Shutong and Duan Yanling were present. The Son of Heaven wanted Liang Heng to die to avoid future troubles. The only one who could save him was...

"It's tiring to deal with repeated courts and conspiracies," Mr. Mai sighed, "This old man saved the young master, so it must be unbearable for the emperor. If you cure the two of you, you will leave Ruyang and travel around the world." go."

"Mister's kindness, Shen Yu will never forget it."

Shen Yushi bowed.

In the main room, Cui Xian dozed off while sitting, his chin touched his chest, and he came to his senses. When he saw Shen Yu came back, he got up and said, "Nephew, thank you for your injury to accompany him for a while. Xiang Wan will replace you."

"I see that his condition has improved a lot, he is easy to leave, Shibo don't have to force it, I just stay with him at night." Shen Yu helped Cui Xian out to the corridor.Cui Xian is old and not suitable for hard work, everyone took turns persuading him, but the old man felt sorry for Liang Heng.Thinking that Cui Xian used to be strict and selfless in teaching, how many students were scared off, but now he has transformed into a kind and father-like figure, which is really shocking.

Liang Heng hid under the blanket and gnawed on the sesame candy, making a rustling sound.

"Aren't you bored?"

Hearing Shen Yu's words, he immediately lifted the quilt and sat up. "Is Mr. Cui finally gone?" Liang Heng said happily, "You should come to see me often, so as not to be watched by Mr. Cui all the time. Do you know how I feel? When I was in... the Chu Palace, Liang Xuan Please ask Mr. Cui to teach me how to read, but he forced me to wake up at five o'clock and sleep at three o'clock, with a teaching ruler drawn on my body, the burning pain lasted for three days! Now he forces me to drink medicine!"

He was still unable to walk on the ground, and his meridians ached with all his strength, and he had to curl up on the bed all day to get moldy, holding back a stomach full of resentment.

"Why do you think he is so nice to me all of a sudden?" Liang Heng said suspiciously, "And Cui Ji, who used to stay at his house, always seemed to be afraid of causing trouble to the upper body, isn't it my illusion? Why suddenly? Attitude change?"

While thinking about how to tell him, Shen Yu straightened his robe slowly, revealing a piece of bloodless skin. Liang Heng stared at him, and suddenly kneeled to the edge of the bed. "What are you doing?" Shen Yu was afraid that he would fall, so he sat closer and hugged him.

"I think you look good like this." Liang Heng said seriously.

"What? Scarred?"

"That's right!" Liang Heng kissed him carelessly on the face with a smile, but he was very careful when he kissed his shoulders, his lips were softly attached to the bandage.

Shen Yu was sore and numb from being teased by him, and when he was about to start, Cui Xiaoxi suddenly ran in: "Brother!"

The two hurriedly separated.

"Brother!" Xiao Xi held a cloth bag and showed it off to Liang Heng, "Look, I have a big bag of candy! Hey, brother, what are you doing?"

With a straight face, Liang Heng straightened Shen Yu's loose coat: "I'm teaching your big brother to dress properly, and if you don't obey, you'll catch a cold—where did you get so much sugar? Eat too much and be careful not to damage your teeth!"

Xiao Xi climbed onto the bed, sat on the quilt, and signaled Liang Heng to use his legs as a table for him to use: "It's not for food! Look!"

He poured the sesame candy from the cloth bag onto Liang Heng's leg, cut it into a square shape, and painted different patterns on the surface with various flower juices, including fish, insects, flowers and plants, birds and animals, very delicate and small.Xiao Xi held up a piece of candy and asked Liang Heng: "What is this?"

"cicada."

"Wrong," Xiao Xi shook his head, and recited what Cui Ji told him, "This is the cicada. The cicada has a blue back armor and a crown of flowers on its head. The cicada has five colors. The big cicada is called a horse cicada, and the small cicada is called a horse cicada. Those who call it Mao Jie. The carapace is purple-gray and small, it is a cricket..."

Shen Yu smiled and asked, "Who made it for you?"

Xiao Xi said: "Of course it is Daddy! Daddy said that those who give the wrong answer are not allowed to eat candy."

Xiao Xi was still teething, Cui Ji tried every means to stop him from eating candy, this trick also taught him to recognize all things, killing two birds with one stone, and convinced Xiao Xi to swallow it.

Liang Heng said angrily: "Well, Cui Ji came up with such a bad way to prevent me from robbing his son of sweets! This piece is painted with Ruixiang, so the answer is correct!" Put it in your mouth.Xiao Xi couldn't catch up, and lost another favorite general, so he ran to find Cui Ji crying.

The bitterness of the medicine soup was hard to get rid of, Liang Heng rejoiced while sucking the sesame candy, the boy who gave the sugar came in time.
