Chapter 59 ◇The One Who Left

When winter is approaching, Ximen Chuuxue decides to leave Beijing.

Before leaving, he left a mind book and asked Zhu Youtang to practice diligently so as to strengthen his body.He also taught a set of acupuncture methods and Lingbi, and asked her to perform acupuncture for Zhu Youtang every day.

Thanks to Ximen Chuuxue's diagnosis and treatment, Zhu Youtang has now recovered.Although the hidden danger of short lifespan has not been completely eliminated, it will never be the same as the doctor Zhang predicted before, that he will not live past his prime.

For such a result, Lingbi was very satisfied.Now she has devoted all her attention to studying medicine, like a demon, and doesn't pay attention to any other things. Even Ximen Chuuxue couldn't help but praise her a few times when she saw her crazy appearance.

On the day Ximen Chuixue left, Lingbi sent him all the way out of the city, quite reluctantly.Seeing this, Ximen Chuuxue was not in a hurry to leave, and simply got off his horse and chatted with Lingbi in the hut.After leaving this time, Ximen Chuuxue was still a little worried about Lingbi.

After the two chatted for a few words, Ximen Chuuxue suddenly looked directly at Lingbi and asked, "Are you serious about studying medicine this time?"

Ling Bi straightened her back and said solemnly, "Of course I mean it."

Ximen Chuuxue held the long sword in his hand, rubbed the hilt carefully, and said for a while, "Who does your sincerity come from?"

Hearing this question, Lingbi suddenly felt a stab in her heart, she pressed her lips tightly and did not answer.

Ximen Chuuxue said coldly: "Let me tell you, if you only study medicine for one or two people, you are doomed to fail."

Lingbi got angry in his heart and shouted: "Why can't it work, you will scare people! Besides, I study medicine... It's not for anyone, I will travel to many places in the future, and I will save many people... ..."

Ximen Chuuxue stared at her, and said coldly again: "It's a lie."

Ling Bi froze and stopped talking.Ximen Chuuxue saw through her mind, and she had nothing to say.In fact, although she said that she wanted to learn medicine for the common people and to be a good princess, it was just a flimsy idea of ​​hers, and it never left a mark in her heart, and it really made her always remember it. What is more is the body of the elder brother, and... a pair of eyes of that person.

In the end, she studied medicine desperately and thought about traveling around in the future, just because she felt that the time was hard to bear and her heartache was unbearable. She was anxious to find something to do, but she just... didn't want that person to look down on her.

Seeing her moist eyes, Ximen Chuuxue paused, and reached out to touch the top of her head.At first, Lingbi only felt that the hand on top of her head was a little stiff, but gradually, the big hand relaxed and gently kneaded her head.

Lingbi's heart warmed slightly, and she hummed a few times in satisfaction, then suddenly came to her senses, and said angrily, "I'm not a child, don't touch my head!" After she finished speaking, she forcefully broke Ximen Chuuxue's hand.

Ximen Chuuxue raised his eyebrows slightly, easily pushed away Lingbi's hands, and flicked on her forehead.

Lingbi rubbed her forehead, looking angry.

After a long while, Ximen Chuuxue said slowly: "Four years ago, my medical skills had no progress because I had given all my sincerity to the sword in my hand." After speaking, he stretched out his hand and flicked the Lingbi again.

"Everything has a way. The way of the sword lies in sincerity, and the way of medicine lies in loving the world. You only love Huamanlou, how do you achieve this way?"

Lingbi's heart was shocked, and his body shook a few times.Ximen Chuuxue's words were like a sharp knife, cutting open her blood, leaving her with no way out.She couldn't help thinking, is it really a mistake for her to like Huamanlou?

She just wants to seriously like someone and get someone. Why does everyone in the world want her to turn back, why does the whole world want to knock her down and force her to admit her mistakes? Is she really unworthy?

She never thought that there would be a day when she would have to choose between medicine and Huamanlou, as if she was not allowed to have too many things in her life.

At this moment, Lingbi finally realized clearly that she really woke up from her dream.She woke up from an illusory dream that was so happy that it made her tremble, leaving only endless emptiness and endless loneliness.

Just when all thoughts in Lingbi were lost, a smile appeared in Ximen Chuuxue's eyes.He picked up the long sword, stretched out the scabbard and tapped it on Lingbi's head, and said calmly: "Little guy, you know love."

Lingbi was furious immediately, grabbed Ximen Chuuxue's scabbard and shouted: "I'm not young! I'm almost ready to marry, I'm a big girl!"

"Big girl." Ximen Chuuxue repeated, as if savoring it carefully.He put away the long sword, stood up and walked slowly in front of Lingbi, looked down at her, then rolled up his sleeves and looked into the distance, saying: "Miss, go outside for a walk."

Lingbi's tears suddenly fell, she blinked her eyes desperately, only felt a lump in her throat, her heart was sore and unbearable.Her lips moved a few times, and after a while, she finally said softly, "Okay."

After that, Ximen Chuuxue didn't stay any longer, and rode away, leaving only the sound of hooves.Lingbi stood for a while, then left too.

After leaving, Lingbi wandered into the eldest princess's mansion like a wandering spirit.She hadn't returned to her princess mansion for a whole month. She knew that Hua Manlou was still waiting for her there, but she didn't want to go back, nor did she want to see him.

She didn't want to meet someone who stayed just to keep a promise and wait for her to be celebrated and gifted.

When Lingbi was about to enter the inner room, she bumped into Qi Shimei who came out from the inner room with a happy face.The future brother-in-law was very happy to see Lingbi. Before leaving, he did not forget to tell Lingbi that he had found an excellent cook for Lingbi when he was away on business, and that at this moment there was a piece of cake on the eldest princess's table. There are many fresh foods, and I ask Lingbi to taste them quickly.

The food that was about to be eaten finally made Lingbi feel better. She quickened her pace and walked into the inner room, and saw the eldest princess smiling and enjoying a jade pendant.

Lingbi leaned over to have a look, then stuffed a piece of snack into her mouth, and said vaguely: "This is not the jade from before." She still remembered that the jade pendant held by the eldest princess was broken, and later she replaced it with gold. Inlaid, with a blooming flower on top.

"En." The eldest princess said softly, her face flushed a little, "He insisted on exchanging his jade pendant for me."

Lingbi didn't know that the dark tide was surging inside, she just felt that this matter was unreasonable.Ordinarily, the broken jade book was given by Qi Shimei, if he felt that it was broken and it was not good, he could give another piece, why would he want to take the old one back.

For a moment, Lingbi only felt that her brother-in-law was a bit stingy, and she couldn't help but solemnly said to the eldest princess: "Sister, when you marry him in the future, remember to save some private money."

Hearing this, the princess was overjoyed, she covered her mouth and laughed, her shoulders trembled.After a while, she sighed and said to Lingbi: "You, what a child."

Lingbi was not happy anymore, she turned around with a "hum", she didn't understand, this one and two always said that she was still a child, how could she be so young, she was clearly an adult already!Well... except for the two lumps on the chest, it is indeed a little smaller...

Seeing that Lingbi was angry, the eldest princess smiled and tried to coax people. It took her boss's hard work to finally coax the little adult into happiness again.

After laughing for a while, Lingbi suddenly said to the eldest princess: "Sister, I don't want to take care of the affairs of the capital, I want to go out for a walk."

"It's a good thing." The eldest princess pursed her lips and said, "At your age, you just want to walk around and gain some knowledge."

Lingbi looked at her and said seriously: "This time, I really want to learn medical skills. Before I leave, I will teach Zhang the method of acupuncture. His medical skills are high, and it would be better for him to perform acupuncture. "

The eldest princess nodded, smiled and said, "There are two months left for you to be ready, and you can go after the ceremony." At the end, she pondered for a moment, and said, "Abi, if you have time, you can go Let's talk to the queen in the palace."

Lingbi froze for a moment, looking at her.

The eldest princess smiled and said: "After all, she is the empress of a country. She is your sister-in-law, your brother's first wife. Even if she was unhappy before, do you want to wait for her to bow to you?" She As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and touched Lingbi's head, "Be good, don't make things difficult for your brother."

Lingbi had been patted on the head many times in a day, and suddenly felt a little frustrated, the whole person was gloomy, and it took a long time to respond dully.

The eldest princess smiled with satisfaction.In fact, she still has some words that have not been said.Although Lingbi is beautiful at the moment, she has no mother's family and no husband's family, and she can't last long just relying on Zhu Youtang's maintenance.Moreover, although Zhu Youtang is the emperor, his health is not good, so it is hard to say what will happen in the future.

But Queen Zhang is a very blessed person.Before she had Zhu Youtang's vow never to accept a concubine, and later she had a family that Zhu Youtang strongly supported. When she gave birth to a prince in the future, she would be the most powerful woman in the world.If Lingbi became enemies with him at this moment, when the new emperor succeeds in the future, Lingbi's life will be extremely sad.

Besides, although Empress Zhang is scheming, she is also kind and kind. She is not a narrow-minded person who will repay every penny.She was really forced to test Lingbi that day.Later, after Zhu Youtang confided his heart to her, she completely untied the knot in her heart.

If people are not for themselves, heaven and earth will perish.If a person wants to live well in this world, he needs to keep forgetting and letting go, so that he can walk a long and wide road.

Three days later, Lingbi shyly went to Queen Zhang's palace.Empress Zhang was very pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly took out the new clothes prepared for Lingbi during this period, and frowned, repeating that Lingbi had lost weight.When Lingbi told her that she was about to leave Beijing, she immediately burst into tears.

"You are tired of your sister-in-law because of the previous incident, so you have an excuse to leave? I... I also have a younger sister in my family, who is about the same age as you. I have plotted against you, and I feel very sad..."

Lingbi was a little flustered, and hurriedly went to comfort Queen Zhang, her face flushed red.She dryly said a lot of words to Queen Zhang, about her determination to study medicine.After hearing this, Queen Zhang felt better.

Finally, when Lingbi was about to leave, Empress Zhang took her hand suddenly, looked at her with tears in her eyes and said, "Sister-in-law believes in you, you will be able to learn medicine well. When you finish your studies, your brother's body will be fine." There is salvation. When the time comes, even if you have a way to make me trade my life for my life, I am willing..."

At this point, Lingbi was completely relieved.If there is someone in this world who treats her brother so sincerely, what is there for her to be dissatisfied with?

Two months passed like running water, and soon the days of Lingbi and Ji came.

That day, she was wearing a heavy dress and knelt respectfully in front of Zhu Youtang.The solemn music sounded, and the guests sat down to watch the ceremony, all of them looked very happy.Empress Zhang stood beside her, combing her hair carefully.She looked at Zhu Youtang who was smiling, and couldn't help recalling the conversation between the two the day before yesterday.

"Brother, I will study medicine hard this time. So many people died for me. If I don't do something, I will feel bad."

"The dead only hope that the living can live a good life. Even if you don't study medicine and enjoy yourself for the rest of your life, they won't blame you if you think about it."

"Brother, you can only talk about me. If you could really think about it like this, you wouldn't try your best to approve so many papers, lying in front of the case day and night and ruining your body."

"It seems that our brothers and sisters are really similar in temperament."

At the same moment, in the princess mansion, Hua Manlou was sitting in front of Lingbi's dressing table, reaching out to caress the jewelry box in front of the mirror, his smile was a bit haggard.

Today is Lingbi's Jiji ceremony, but he was not invited, and his younger sister seems to have forgotten him.

Hua Manlou sat quietly for a while, and then took out a rosewood hairpin from his sleeve.A passage of scriptures was carefully carved on the elegant hairpin. The characters of the scriptures are extremely small and dense. Obviously, it takes a lot of energy to carve such an effect, and it is very difficult for a blind person.

Because of this hairpin, Hua Manlou's fingers were left with countless scars, but he didn't feel pain. On the contrary, he felt very happy. When he was carving, he only wanted to think that this scripture would be put on the hairpin by his little sister in the future. On the top of his head, he felt very satisfied to be able to bless her to be safe on the road.

But now, such a hairpin can no longer be sent out.

Hua Manlou sighed softly, then opened the jewelry box in front of her with a smile, and solemnly put the wooden hairpin into the box.When the jewelry box was closed heavily, his heart also dropped.

He thought, he finally released the little chick he was protecting in his arms.
