It is said that "good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles."

Before Xi Yutong came back, the housekeeper told Grand Master Xi about her frightened downtown.

Grand Master Xi has only one daughter, who used to hold her in the palm of her hand, and would not be willing to say a word or two when reprimanded, but now seeing her daughter being bullied, she couldn't sit still.

Grand Master Xi asked, "Miss, have you come back yet?"

The housekeeper shook his head: "My lord, the young lady should still be on the way at this time, and she will arrive at the house later."

Grand Master Xi nodded, then thought of something, and ordered: "Yutong is probably frightened, go and ask the doctor to come over."

"Yes, my lord."

Xi Hongbo thought for a while, felt that something was wrong, and stopped the housekeeper again.

The butler looked at him puzzled: "My lord?"

Xi Hongbo cultivated his moral character in the past and never got angry, but that didn't mean he was soft-tempered. After thinking about it, he ordered: "After calling the doctor, you send someone to the palace to invite the imperial doctor to come and have a look. If anyone asks, just say yes .”

The housekeeper nodded yes, and left in a hurry.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the carriage drove to the gate of the mansion, and Xi Yutong was helped out of the carriage by the two of Xiaotao.

Xiao He saw that her complexion was really not very good, and she was a little worried: "Miss, your complexion is very bad, do you want to call the doctor to have a look before calling the imperial physician?"

Xi Yutong felt uncomfortable, but she shook her head thinking that if she called the doctor, the effect would not be so good.Just shaking her head, she felt nauseated, her whole body was weak, and she almost couldn't stand still. It was Xiaohe who quickly caught her, "Miss."

"I..." Xi Yutong wanted to say that he was fine, but his eyes darkened, and the voice calling in his ears gradually moved away, and he passed out.

"Miss, miss." Xiaotao panicked when she saw her fainted, and quickly looked in the direction of the guard, "Miss fainted, hurry up and call the doctor."

The guard responded, put down the stick in his hand and ran away quickly.

"Help the lady in first." Xiaohe was still calm, and without any effort, he hugged his lady on his waist and looked at Xiaotao, "The doctor will come and take him to the lady's room."

Xiaotao nodded subconsciously, then froze.Why didn't she know that Xiaohe had such great strength that he could walk like flying while holding a person of average weight?

But now is not the time to think about it, Xiaotao hurriedly called the maid who heard the news, "Master, hurry up and inform the master."

As soon as Xi Yutong came back, someone came to notify him, and Xi Hongbo went over immediately, so when the maid came to inform his daughter that he was unconscious, he was almost at the door.

Knowing that Xi Yutong fell into a coma after getting off the carriage, he quickly changed direction and walked towards Xi Yutong's yard.

"Master." Seeing him, Xiaohe and Xiaotao quickly knelt down, "This servant did not take good care of Miss, please forgive me."

"It's none of your business, get up." Xi Hongbo sat on the edge of the bed, reached out to touch his daughter's face, and was startled by the warm touch, "Why is it so hot?" He quickly asked the maids to bring some Come with cold water.

While he was applying a cold towel, the butler brought the doctor over.

"Master, the doctor is here."

Xiaohe and Xiaotao looked over subconsciously, and both recognized the old doctor next to the housekeeper. Isn't this the teacher of Prince Yi?The two looked at each other, puzzled.

When Xi Hongbo saw someone, he was also a little surprised: "Mr. Xin, why are you here? Didn't you say you left Beijing?"

"The old man left Beijing, but my apprentice had something to do, so I stayed." The old doctor was still wearing the same gray clothes, carrying a medicine box, and his beard looked a little longer than before. .Glancing at the pale man on the bed, he stroked his beard, "Hongbo, let me take a look at Miss Xi first."

Only then did Xi Hongbo come to his senses, and quickly got up to make way.

The old doctor took Xi Yutong's pulse, rolled his eyelids, and finally opened the medicine box.

While picking out a suitable silver needle to pierce Xi Yutong's ten fingers, he asked, "Miss Xi was frightened before?"

Xiao He nodded, "Before returning home, we wanted to go to West Street, but when we passed through the downtown area, the carriage was frightened by the horses of some sons and fell down."

"That's no wonder." The old doctor got a few needles, then rummaged through the medicine box and poured a few pills into Xi Yutong's mouth, before continuing, "Miss Xi just had a serious illness a month ago, and her body seems to be cured. But Weiyu has fully recovered. Now she is too worried, coupled with physical fatigue, and was frightened for a while, so she can't hold on."

Seeing that he had fed the pills, Xiaohe's face turned rosy instantly, and she asked, "Then doctor, when will my lady wake up?"

"I'm already tired. I woke up when I had enough sleep." The old doctor put away the bottle and glanced at Xi Hongbo next to him, his disapproval eyes were very obvious, "Hongbo, no matter how busy you are, you can't ignore the child's body. , this young man gets sick from time to time, that's not okay."

Xi Hongbo blushed: "Mr. Xin, it's Hongbo's fault. I will take good care of Yutong in the future."

"I do have a suggestion." The old doctor stroked his beard and smiled, "I think this girl's skeleton is quite strange, but she can practice something to strengthen her body. What do you think?"

As a frail scholar, Xi Hongbo subconsciously frowned.

The old doctor saw it and persuaded: "The old man won't let her learn anything too complicated, just some moves to strengthen her body, and she can protect herself if she encounters danger."

Xi Hongbo thought of the number of times Xi Yutong fell ill in the past month, and then thought about the incident when he almost died when he met a robber.If Xi Yutong knew some self-protection moves, she would not have fallen into such a situation, and the balance in her heart began to tilt.

"Since Mr. Xin is willing to teach, it is Yutong's blessing." He quickly figured it out, heaved a long breath, and bowed to the old doctor, "I don't know if Mr. Xin has a place to live now? If not, he can. Live in Taishifu."

"I'm staying in Prince Yi's Mansion right now." The old doctor didn't shy away, and said with a smile, "Yutong also knows about this, you just ask her to come here directly tomorrow."

Xi Hongbo was taken aback for a moment, then nodded: "Then Hongbo would like to thank Yutong first."

The old doctor nodded, packed up the things in the box, and then picked it up: "If there is nothing wrong, the old man will leave first."

"Mr. Xin, let Hongbo take you out." Xi Hongbo looked at Xiaohe, "Xiaohe, Xiaotao, take good care of Miss, I'll be back later."

Xiaohe and Xiaotao nodded together: "Yes, master."

When they left, Xiaotao approached Xiaohe and asked curiously, "Xiaohe, do you find it strange?"

Xiao He touched Xi Yutong's face and found that the temperature had dropped, so she reached out and put a handkerchief on her forehead, and when she heard Xiao He's words, she smiled: "What's so strange?"

"That's the old doctor." Xiaotao was afraid of being heard, and lowered her voice, "Don't you think our adults are very respectful to him? Even after the old doctor said it, the adults agreed to let the young lady learn martial arts."

Xiao He explained: "My lord promised that it was for the sake of Miss's health."

"Of course I also know." Xiaotao rolled her eyes, "I mean, what is the background of this old doctor, so that our master can be like this, and he can also be the teacher of the prince."

Xiao He put down her handkerchief and looked at her: "Xiao Tao, have you heard such a sentence?",

Xiaotao was at a loss: "What are you talking about?"

"Curiosity killed the cat." Xiao He picked up the basin and said with deep emotion, "People who know too much don't always live long."

Xiaotao hissed subconsciously, and raised her hand to touch her neck.

I don't know if Xiaohe's tone was too cold, she had goosebumps all over the floor, and followed Xiaohe in fear, "I'll pour water with you too."

"You're with me, so who will take care of Miss?" Xiao He avoided her tugging with disgust, "Look at Miss quickly, I'll be back in a while."

Xiao Tao thought about it, and could only endure the fear of being murdered and silenced, sitting by the bed and staring at her young lady.

As the old doctor said, Xi Yutong was just too tired and woke up after sleeping until midnight.

Xi Yutong has been thinking about various things since he was reborn, first to make money, then to open a store, and not long ago, there was a plague of locusts, one after another, the pressure in his heart was unknown, so that the fright in the downtown area became the fuse and he was overwhelmed all at once Body.

After a long sleep, Xi Yutong felt better than ever.

As soon as she moved, the two people who were staring at her all the time found out. They hurriedly stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Miss, you finally woke up, why do you feel uncomfortable?"

Xi Yutong shook her head, helped Xiaotao sit up by her hand, and asked, "What's wrong with me?"

"The doctor said that you were overworked, and you were overwhelmed with worry, and you fell into a coma after being frightened." Xiao He said, "The old doctor from the palace came to see you once, and then the imperial doctor invited by your lord came over, and the result was similar. "

Xi Yutong nodded, then remembered something, and asked with some distress: "Did Daddy freak out?"

Xiao Tao nodded: "Master was terrified at that time." Then she remembered something, and looked at Xi Yutong hesitantly.

Xi Yutong saw it, and couldn't laugh or cry: "Just say what you want to say."

Xiaotao quickly told about the matter of Xi Hongbo and the old doctor at noon.

Xi Yutong was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the old doctor actually knew his father.

"You said, father respects the old doctor very much, and he still calls Mr. Fang Xin?" Xi Yutong was a little puzzled, even if she was a master outside the world, she was Feng Yuyi's teacher, but her father was the imperial master, and even the son of heaven Neighbor, shouldn't be like this, is it to respect the elders?

Seeing her frown, Xiaohe was worried that the other party was tired, so she gave Xiaotao a look and said, "Miss, you just woke up, so don't think too much. Anyway, the old doctor didn't mean anything malicious, who is it?" What does it matter?"

Xiaotao was stared at by Xiaohe, she also came to her senses, and changed her words: "Miss, you have been asleep for most of the day, but are you hungry? Do you need a maidservant to prepare some food?"

As soon as her words fell, Xi Yutong's stomach made a "grunt" sound.

Xiaohe and Xiaotao were taken aback for a moment, and then they both laughed.

"Don't laugh." Xi Yutong patted his stomach with a straight face, "Why don't you hurry up?"

Xiaotao hissed quickly, turned around and left after getting short.

Xiao He stayed behind and said with a smile: "Miss, this servant will take care of you to wash up."

Xi Yutong nodded, lifted the quilt and got up.

Xi Yutong originally wanted to see his father so that he would not be worried, but he was really hungry, so he could only go there after eating.

On the other side, Grand Master Xi came over as soon as she found out that she had woken up, she was injured and still holding something.

When he came, Xi Yutong was finishing his meal, and he looked surprised: "Father, why are you here?"

"My servant said you're awake, so I'll naturally come over and take a look." Xi Hongbo looked at the food on the Sightstone table, didn't move much, and even used up a third of the rice in the bowl, and frowned immediately, "You Why do you eat so little? But the food cooked by the cook in the house is not to your appetite?"

"No." Xi Yutong tried his eyes to ask Xiaohe to remove the food, and then explained with a smile, "Father, girls always have smaller appetites, so it's none of the cook's business."

Xi Hongbo remained skeptical: "Really?"

"Really." Xi Yutong nodded, worried that the other party would be holding on to this point, so he quickly changed the subject and looked at the things in the other party's hands.

In her previous life, she was favored by Feng Yuyi, and she often read memorials for him, and when she glanced at the cover, she knew that it was a memorial to be presented by an official.But she knew that she knew, but she couldn't say it directly, and asked curiously: "Daddy, what are you holding in your hand?"

Xi Hongbo handed it to her, "This is the brochure that my father will submit tomorrow, take a look and see how it is written."

Xi Yutong was at a loss, but he still unfolded the story under the encouraging eyes of the other party.

the second

The content of the excerpt is not long, Xi Yutong finished it in a short while, it probably just described the things going on in the downtown area, especially Feng Yuqi, the prince, who was given special attention.Riding horses in downtown, molesting young girls from good families, ineffective management of subordinates, etc., each of which is a felony.

Riding a horse in a busy city is a felony, so at least those young masters would be reprimanded, and in serious cases, their fathers who were officials in the court would even be implicated.

But there is Feng Yuqi among them, the second prince is now favored by the emperor, if he protects those dogs, it will probably be the same.

She thought about it quickly in her mind, and then said: "Father, have you thought it through clearly? Once you submit this paper, you will slap the second prince in the face. As the saying goes, "If the son does not teach, it is the father's fault." . "You are also slapping His Majesty in the face. You should know the consequences."

Xi Hongbo held her hand, his always serious face softened at this time, and looked at her kindly: "As a father, you are a daughter, if you can't uphold justice for you, your mother will be angry with me if she finds out. If His Majesty has any opinion on me because of this, then it is not appropriate for me to be an official."

Xi Yutong was moved.

Originally, she wanted to use the name of the imperial physician to spread the news that the second prince and others rode horses in the city and made her unconscious, but she did not expect that her father was so stubborn that he planned to directly disclose the matter to the public .

"Father has already thought about this matter clearly, you don't need to worry." Xi Hongbo put away the booklet, "There is another matter to come here for father."

Xi Yutong nodded, waiting for him to speak.

"Father thinks it's not a solution for you to get sick all the time, so I plan to let you learn some kung fu to strengthen your body." Xi Hongbo didn't know if she agreed with her. After all, girls have always studied piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and it's really important to practice these things. What a lady does.

The so-called physical fitness means exercising, and you are very tired. Xi Yutong subconsciously frowned and tried to explain: "Father, my daughter just fell into a coma because she didn't have a good rest for a while. She may not be weak."

"Just in case, after all, no one can tell what's going to happen next, right?" Seeing her thin appearance, Xi Hongbo strengthened his mind, "It's not that I want you to become a master of martial arts, but just to exercise, Be physically fit, and even protect yourself when you are in danger."

After hearing the last sentence, Xi Yutong thought of the scene of almost dying in place of Feng Yuyao, a little moved, and asked, "Father, have you found a good master for me?"

Xi Hongbo nodded: "Mr. Xin, do you know him? It is the old doctor who treated you earlier. He is not only proficient in medical skills, but also first-class in martial arts." After speaking, his tone was full of admiration.

Xi Yutong was even more confused, recalling the old doctor's old appearance, never thought that the other party was still a peerless master.But to be able to teach someone like Feng Yuyi, his martial arts are probably not bad.Maybe she can take the opportunity to learn lightness kung fu, not to mention flying over walls in the future, even if she can't beat her in danger, she can escape.

After thinking for a while, she nodded with difficulty.

Seeing that she agreed, Xi Hongbo heaved a sigh of relief: "Mr. Xin said, let you start tomorrow, and go to the palace at about Chenshi, and you just follow his instructions."

Xi Yutong nodded, seeing his father mentioned that the old doctor was indeed as respected as Xiaotao said, he was curious, so he asked, "Daddy, what is the identity of that Mr. Xin?"

"Mr. Xin taught my father some things when he was a child." Xi Hongbo did not hide it, "Even the Holy One was taught by Mr. Xin when he was young."

That said, it is fine to be an emperor teacher, with a noble status, no wonder.

Only then she wondered again.The current sage is older than her father, about forty or so now, if the old doctor taught the current sage when he was young, how old is the old doctor now?

After she asked this question, Xi Hongbo was immediately amused.

Seeing her father smiling like this, Xi Yutong was at a loss.

Xi Hongbo returned to his usual seriousness, but instead of replying directly, he asked instead: "Yutong, guess how old Mr. Xin is?"

Xi Yutong thought for a while, and said tentatively, "Sixty?"

What her father said was when she was young, before she was about ten years old, that was the current Holy Majesty who taught her as the crown prince more than twenty years ago.Her father is the youngest grand master, and he is in his thirties now, so the old doctor is probably in his fifties or sixties.

"No and no." Xi Hongbo shook his head, "Mr. Xin is only forty now, seriously younger than His Majesty."

Xi Yutong's expression was dull, not only her, but Xiaotao who was serving beside her was also stunned, only Xiaohe maintained a normal expression.

"Daddy is happy to find his daughter?" Xi Yutong thought of the other party's white beard, coupled with the shabby clothes that looked like an outsider, he really couldn't think that the other party was only forty years old, and even once served as an emperor. division.

"I was about seven or eight years old when I became a father, and His Majesty was only a prince." Xi Hongbo sighed a little, "Mr. Xin was born with a vision. He could speak at the age of one, walk at the age of two, and even uttered poems at the age of three. A young genius, at the age of 13 He took the imperial examination as a special case, and won the title of No. [-] scholar in one fell swoop, and was even named a grand teacher to teach the prince the Four Books and Five Classics, and he became famous in the capital in an instant."

These things have been going on for a long time, and Xi Yutong has never heard of them before, so he asked enthusiastically: "In that case, why is Mr. Xin now a doctor?"

Xi Hongbo shook his head and sighed: "A tree is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. At the age of 16, Mr. Xin was framed by a traitor and imprisoned, and his family members in the countryside were slaughtered. After Mr. Xin was wronged, he disappeared. trace."

Xi Yutong sighed a little, if it hadn't been for such a disaster, the other party would have the same limelight in the future, even a little bit more powerful than Prime Minister Yao today.

No wonder when she was reborn, the other party persuaded her not to immerse herself in the past with a disillusioned look.

Xi Yutong was filled with emotions, and then seeing his father's expression of hesitation, he asked: "Dad, do you still have something you want to tell your daughter?"

Xi Hongbo was still thinking about whether to say something, but when she heard her mention it, he asked, "The doctor said you were overtired, because my father knew it was because of the store and the locust plague. Now that the locust plague has found a countermeasure, the store has also opened. In the future, there will be more people." It's much easier and you don't have to work too hard."

Xi Yutong heard that there was still nothing to say, and looked at him quietly.

Xi Hongbo frowned: "But the doctor said that you worry too much, as a father, I don't understand, but you miss Prince Yi?"

Xi Yutong's expression froze, she stared blankly at the person in front of her, "Daddy, why do you think so?"

These days, she seems to think of Feng Yuyi only for a while except Feng Yuyi who writes to make her angry. She is mostly studying how to make money, how to prevent locust disasters and control locust disasters.Even if you want to, most of them are imagining the expression the other party will have after receiving your letter.

Xi Hongbo was even more confused when he saw that her shocked expression didn't seem to be a crime: "Except Prince Yi, who can make you worry too much?"

"It's not about thinking about others, Dad." Xi Yutong couldn't say that she was worried that the other party would suffer from the serious illness of the previous life again, so she smiled, stood up and walked behind the other party to beat him on the shoulders, "Father, my daughter just saw Aunt Cui, and she missed her a little bit. mother."

When she brought Cui Qingyao's mother and daughter over to the house, the housekeeper also told Xi Hongbo, so she knew who Aunt Cui was.

When mentioning his beloved wife, Xi Hongbo sighed for a moment.

Seeing him like this, Xi Yutong felt a little sad, regretted using her mother as an excuse, and slowed down the movement of beating his back.

"Don't mention this sad thing." Xi Hongbo raised his hand and patted the back of her hand, "You have to go to training tomorrow, and you still need to make some preparations, so I won't bother you as a father."

Xi Yutong nodded and sent the other party out of the yard, only to meet Xiaotao and Xiaohe.

After closing the door, she asked, "Did my father or the old doctor bring up this matter of martial arts?"

Based on her understanding of her father, she probably wouldn't think of letting her practice martial arts to achieve the purpose of strengthening her body. At most, let her put down the work of the shop for a while, and work hard after resting.If it wasn't for what her father said, it could only be the old doctor.

Xiaotao and the two of them didn't expect her to be so keen, they guessed it right away, and they nodded together.

After the guess was confirmed, Xi Yutong was even more confused, because she didn't know why the old doctor made this suggestion.Is it really for her to strengthen her body, or is there another purpose?

Although she learned from her father that the old doctor had taught His Majesty and her father, she was a rare genius, but she felt that there was something hidden in him.

Xiao He saw her frowning, and asked inadvertently, "Miss, are you still suspicious of that old doctor?"

"It's not that I doubt it, it's just that I can't understand it." Xi Yutong held his chin, "He offered to let me practice martial arts to strengthen my body. This can be said to be the benevolence of a doctor. But we have no reason. Teach me how to practice martial arts? Instead of asking my father to find a teacher?"

Xiaotao was originally a person who didn't like to use her brain. Hearing what she said, she really felt that Mr. Xin was "a weasel wishing a chicken a happy new year, so he is uneasy and kind." Just as she was about to speak, Xiaohe next to her pinched her.

"Don't talk nonsense to confuse the lady." Xiaohe glared at her, and then looked at Xi Yutong, "Miss, this servant has a guess about what Mr. Xin did."

Xi Yutong looked up at her, "Say it."

"We all know that Lord Yi has something for Miss, and Mr. Xin is Lord Yi's teacher. Could it be that Lord Yi asked Mr. Xin to teach Miss martial arts?" Xiaohe carefully looked at her lady's expression, and did not see any rejection, With an expression of disgust, he continued, "I think it might not be a bad thing to practice martial arts with Mr. Xin."

When Xi Yutong heard that it might be because of Feng Yuyi, his heart wavered a little. Hearing what Xiaohe said, he was a little curious: "Why?"

"Your Excellency has said that Mr. Xin is capable of both civil and martial arts, and it is true that the martial arts he taught Prince Yi is strong." Xiao He slowly analyzed to her, "Since Miss wants to practice martial arts, she must be the best, otherwise she will learn the best martial arts. It doesn't make much sense if you can't get up or down. What's more, now that the prince is not in the mansion, and the young lady goes to practice martial arts in the mansion, there is no need to be afraid of meeting the prince."

Xi Yutong was okay when he heard the first few sentences, but he was irritated when he heard the latter sentence, and his voice became louder: "Why am I afraid of seeing the prince? Didn't I go to see the prince every day?"

Although we see each other every day, every time I can't sit down for half a cup of tea, I always make an excuse to leave. Isn't it because I'm afraid?

Thinking of going to the same place, Xiaotao and Xiaohe looked at each other and smiled.

Seeing the disapproving expressions of the two, Xi Yutong picked up the water glass and drank it down, and then explained to himself with a cold face: "In short, I am not afraid of seeing the prince, even if the prince appears in front of me at this moment, I am not afraid." of."

Seeing her like this, Xiao He suddenly dragged Xiao Tao to kneel down together, "My servant has seen the prince."

Xi Yutong paused with the hand holding the teacup, and the expression on his face was frozen.

Wouldn't it be so unlucky, as soon as Cao Cao was mentioned, Cao Cao would arrive?

But in the next second she realized that Feng Yuyi was leading the send-off team in Huafu, how could he appear here.

After thinking about it, she also felt relieved, and her expression returned to calm.Looking back, there was no one else behind him, let alone Feng Yuyi.

Xi Yutong realized that this was Xiao He's trick, and snorted softly: "Xiao He, you girl is really bold, you dare to scare your lady."

Xiao He quickly admitted his mistake.

Xi Yutong is not that stingy person either, he waved his hands and asked the two to get up: "There will be no next time."

Xiaohe nodded: "Yes, Miss."

Xi Yutong raised his head to check the sky, then looked at Xiaotao: "Xiaotao, go and prepare the clothes that you can wear to practice martial arts tomorrow."

Xiaotao responded, and went to the room to prepare.

Xi Yutong got up, paused in the middle of the walk, supported the stone table and continued to stand up, looked at Xiaohe next to him: "Xiaohe, you can go together too. I remember it was worn by martial arts, so don't make it fancy. "

"Slave remembered."

When Xiaohe also entered the room, Xi Yutong stretched out his hand to beat his leg.

I don't know if she was overly frightened just now, but her legs were a little weak, and she almost couldn't stand upright before.

After standing for a while, she felt her strength regained, and then she walked slowly towards the house.
