Peony Overlord [Rebirth]

"My lord, Gu Shanyuan, has long admired your name." Xing Qingzhang bowed expressionlessly.

"He..." Before Ping An came back to his senses, he was reminded by Xing Qingzhang's actions and hurriedly bowed down.

Yun Jiming's eyes haven't changed since he first came in, he looked at Xing Qingzhang with scrutiny and suspicion.

Ji Wuya was wearing a long-sleeved gown, and his long gray hair was tied lazily behind him. He waved his hand, then stared at Xing Qingzhang with wide eyes, and suddenly realized: "Oh, this young man can't see it!" In the wave, he turned his head to Yunji and smiled, and replied: "Don't don't don't, I'm just an ordinary person who knows a little bit of medicine."

Yun Jiming also smiled, and the two seemed to be genuinely smiling, but neither of them understood the meaning behind the laughter.

Qian Yi raised his eyebrows, thought of something, and asked Ping An without stopping: "What did you want to say just now, what about him?"

Pingan was shocked by his question, immediately waved his hands, and said, "He...my brother admires Mr. Ji the most. I always heard from my brother that, of course, I am excited to see a real person now." Ping'an jumped in his chest Fei Kuai, with the same calm expression on his face, even rolled his eyes mockingly at Qian Yi.

"..."

Qian Yi couldn't tell whether the kid was telling the truth or a lie, but for that white-eyed sullen man who raised his hand to vent his emotions and huffed and messed up Ping'an's tied hair, it was all right.

Yun Jiming turned his eyes from Ping An back to Xing Qingzhang, saw his hand pinching his earlobe again, smiled with his lips curled up, and asked softly, "Shanyuan, is this really the case?"

The sound was like a spell that bewitched people's hearts, echoing in the room full of bitter medicine. It was sunny outside the window, but the sun couldn't reach in.

Muscles all over Ji Wuya's body tensed suddenly, his hands hidden in his wide sleeves clenched tightly, and his breathing intensified unconsciously.

Xing Qingzhang let go of the hand pinching the earlobe, and his hand was trembling. This feeling seemed like a secret had been discovered, but it was still pretending to be concealed.

"Yes, I heard that Mr. Ji has superb medical skills, and I respect him." Xing Qingzhang didn't realize that his voice was trembling when he spoke.

Suo Xingyun Jiming finally let them go, didn't ask any more questions, nodded and smiled, and didn't intend to stay any longer.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark outside, there was no one in the clinic today, it was very leisurely, Yun Jiming and Qian Yi did not delay, as if they were specially introducing Ji Wuya to Xing Qingzhang, and then left.

Xing Qingzhang slept late tonight, he wasn't sure if someone would visit him at night, but he was wrong, the room was as quiet as usual tonight.

"Is he in the house tonight?" Yun Jiming asked Qian Yi after drinking a cup of tea.

Qian Yi nodded: "I've never been out."

Yun Jiming narrowed his eyes sharply, as if he was constantly searching in doubts and denials. After a long while, he chose to affirm his own thoughts, and laughed, and the oil lamp and candlelight reflected half of his face, which was strange and weird.

"No hurry, take your time, he will always go."

Day after day goes by, and this spring is coming to an end.

Runan was already unbearably hot, Chu Xinle came to the Medicine Refining Department as usual every day, as soon as Hou Yingnan saw him, he would immediately let someone help him with a smile on his face.

"It's too hot today, Ming'er, so don't go in, the room is too stuffy, and the smell is choking." Seeing that Chu Xinle's cheeks were dripping with sweat, Hou Yingnan immediately took out a handkerchief to give to others. wipe.

Chu Xinle dodged almost inaudibly, walked forward, took out a handkerchief from her arms to wipe off the sweat on her face, slipped her sleeves down, revealing the jade bracelet on her wrist.

Hou Yingnan was still looking at the handkerchief in Chu Xinle's hand at first, and was instantly attracted by the jade bracelet on his wrist. The jade bracelet was exquisite and translucent, and it made his skin white when worn on his hand. It was very valuable at first glance. Shi Jiaming, a concubine of the Shi family, where did he get the money to buy this thing?

Hou Yingnan laughed and asked: "Ming'er's bracelet is really extraordinary, can you take it off and let me have a look?"

Chu Xinle glanced at him, the corners of his eyes and lips curled up, he stretched out his hand, and retracted it when Hou Ying was about to grab it, and said, "What's so extraordinary, it's fake, it looks good, bring it to play with!" , I really can’t afford it.”

He always speaks in such a calm manner that people can't tell whether it's true or false.

When Chu Xinle entered the room, she happened to see someone adding something to the medicine pot. The bloody smell could not even suppress the bitter medicine. Chu Xinle took a step forward to see that there were scarlet blood clots in the pot.

"Is this..." he asked.

Hou Yingnan looked away and said, "This is pig's blood, which is necessary for refining medicine."

"Pig blood?" Chu Xinle raised an eyebrow and looked at Hou Yingnan, he never remembered that the smell of pig blood could be so strong.

Hou Yingnan ignored his doubts, and coaxed him comfortingly: "This stuff has a strong smell, and if it gets on it, you have to wash it carefully before it can be removed."

Chu Xinle understood what he said, and the two went to stay outside the house again.

As soon as he went out, a person came not far away, it was Shi Zhenming.

Chu Xinle felt that she hadn't seen him for a long time. It seemed that Shi Enze was not easy to deal with. Shi Zhenming was older than before, and his eyes were full of anger that could not be concealed.

"Brother, why do you have time to come here today?" Chu Xinle pretended to be timid and admiring, and ran forward.

Hou Yingnan was also helped up.

Shi Zhenming refused to give Chu Xinle a single glance. He looked at Hou Yingnan and asked, "Have you prepared today's medicine?"

Hou Yingnan didn't know why she was a little afraid of him. The brothers who were equal before were all gone. He nodded and replied, "It will be soon."

Shi Zhenming didn't respond, and then he was willing to look at Chu Xinle at the side.

Hou Yingnan was very thoughtful, and immediately said, "I'll go and see the medicine in the house."

When he disappeared, Chu Xinle still maintained her original appearance.

Shi Zhenming sneered: "Stop pretending, everyone has gone away."

Chu Xinle shook her head, and said to Shi Zhenming: "Brother, I am like this, I am afraid that you will admire you again."

"Heh..." Shi Zhenming felt disgusted, and the ruthlessness in his eyes became heavier: "Life is really big, I can survive twice."

Chu Xinle put her hands behind her back, kept rubbing the jade bracelet with one hand, thought for a moment, and said, "Brother, why is this so, all the memories of my past were washed away by the water in the river, and they all said that I jumped down by myself, then I I admit it, but why did the elder brother want to kill them all again this time, I said, Jia Ming has always been helping the elder brother."

Shi Zhenming let out a cold snort from his nasal cavity, his voice was unbearably low: "You help me? You use me to pull Hou Linchang down, don't you want to refine medicine to take this position? It's a pity that Shi Enze didn't get what you wanted. "

Chu Xinle looked innocent, he opened his eyes wide and looked at Shi Zhenming, and said with some distress: "Brother, how can you think of me like this? If I'm really so stupid, wouldn't that hold you back? Even Shi Enze can think of it." Why would I take the risk of doing something like this?"

Shi Zhenming seemed to be persuaded.

Chu Xinle's eyes didn't dodge in any way, he understood the current situation, if he showed a little fear, then all achievements would be in vain.

"That's right, you don't seem like someone who would take risks." Shi Zhenming nodded, and then waved his hand to signal that he could leave.

Chu Xinle saluted the person, turned around and walked into the medicine refining room.

He could feel Shi Zhenming's eyes behind him, and he couldn't avoid it.

Chu Xinle walked firmly step by step, but the original two or three steps seemed extremely long. Chu Xinle squinted her eyes, and found something new in the confrontation just now.

Shi Jiaming used to be a cautious person...

When she came back late today, Chu Xinle didn't plan to have dinner, so she asked Qingzhu Yulian to rest, and practiced kung fu with Huo Gang for an hour, feeling too tired to raise her hand, so she went back to her room.

Chen Fan put a few books of illustrations stolen from Shifu's study today on the table in the house. Seeing Chu Xinle come in, he stepped aside and poured someone a cup of tea.

Chu Xinle took a sip of the tea, reached out to flip through the album, and asked, "That's all?"

Chen Fan nodded, and said, "Shifu only found these few copies."

"Enough is enough, go and rest."

Dust was ordered to leave the house.

Chu Xinle was flipping through the books, the oil lamp was swinging, a little dazzling, he hadn't bathed yet, his clothes were soaked with sweat, he took out a handkerchief to wipe off the sweat on his face, and put it aside.

"Still sleeping?" A familiar voice interrupted him, and Chu Xinle's hand turning the pages of the book slowed down significantly.

The curtain of the inner room was lifted, and Xing Yanhong came out.

"It seems that this habit can't be changed." Chu Xinle didn't look at Xing Yanhong, but still read with lowered eyes.

Xing Yanhong didn't care, as if nothing happened before, he sat aside, took Chu Xinle's half cup of tea and slowly sipped, "Third Young Master has no plans to change."

Then he got up and stood behind Chu Xinle, leaned forward, put his hands on the chair handles on both sides of him, wrapped him in his arms, lowered his head slightly on Chu Xinle's left shoulder, and looked at Chu Xinle like rubbing his ears and temples. The booklet in the musician's hand.

"Topographic map of the Central Plains?" A deep voice rang in Chu Xinle's ear, and the two of them seemed to be still enjoying that night in a trance, "Are you going to escape?"

Chu Xinle ignored him, but his earlobes gradually turned red. He pretended to be calm and said, "Yes, write down the terrain so that you can run easily."

"Rote memorization is not good, the third son will teach you." Xing Yanhong pointed Runan with his right finger, "The Central Plains is vast and rich in resources, divided into seven continents, and Runan located in the southwest corner is far away from the other six continents. Surrounding Yongyi Mountain and Gufu Pass, and blocking Yuntai Pass in the south, only the Ruyan Horse Road in the north leads directly to Yandu." Xing Yanhong no longer pointed to Runan, but turned to Yandu in the northeast of Runan, and touched Chu Xin by the way Le Zhishou went on to say: "Yandu has Yanlang Haidao connecting with Langya in the south, Yanfenghai Dao connecting with Fengtian in the east, and Chitian Liangma Dao in the north, but this road was occupied by Fengtian bandits two years ago. , blocking it and making it impossible to get through, it is equivalent to being invalid."

Chu Xinle dodged Xing Yanhong's finger, thought for a moment and said: "The bandit leader in Fengtian is very smart, he knows that among the rest of the family, Jiuyuan Xing's family is irresistible to him, and Lin'an is in the south, so he is naturally not afraid, so he cut off the scarf. The Tianliang Horse Road is blocked by Tongtian Tower in the southeast of Jiuyuan, so the Chitian Liang Horse Road has become the only main road between Jiuyuan and Fengtian. Fengtian has Tiandu Port to the east and Yongan Port to Qinchuan in the south. Hub Treasure."

Ignoring his avoidance, Xing Yanhong tilted his head and kissed the man's smooth cheek, and praised: "Yi An is smart."

"..."

Chu Xinle looked at him sideways, the two of them breathed intertwinedly, and Xing Yanhong's eyes were clearly showing a triumphant smile.

"Fengtian is a good place. Everyone wants it, but in the end they fought and fought and turned into a den of bandits." Ignoring the anger in Chu Xinle's eyes, Xing Yanhong asked, "Do you know anything about the Seventh Family?"

Chu Xinle was stunned for a moment, as if he was organizing his thoughts, then he turned back and continued to look at the album in his hand, and said: "The Seventh Family is a branch that was squeezed out from the barbarian tribes. At that time, they were able to settle in the Central Plains and occupy Fengtian because they could The most powerful blow to the barbarians. Later, the most tragic destruction of the Central Plains was when the barbarians entered Yandu from Fengtian from the east gate. The Akelu tribe in the barbarian tribe, however, Xunfanglu did not deny it, but led the whole Xunjia to drive out the barbarians, and dealt them the most fatal blow. As a result, they had to wait outside the Central Plains for more than ten years to recuperate. As a result, Xunjia was completely annihilated...not a single person was left."

Xing Yanhong praised: "That's right, so the barbarians are now making a comeback to make up Jiuyuan's idea, because Xunfang Road will shrink the port of Tiandu Port, so that it can no longer take advantage of it."

Chu Xinle was a little tired. He got up, threw the book on the table, stretched his muscles and went into the back room. When he undressed and lay down, the oil lamp suddenly went out.

Xing Yanhong blew out the light and came in, lay down on the bed, and squeezed Chu Xinle inside again.

"What are you doing? Third Young Master, have you forgotten everything you said a few days ago?" Chu Xinle said mockingly.

Xing Yanhong raised his arms and pulled him into his arms, put his chin on top of Chu Xinle's head, and said, "Have you forgotten too? Take your third son's handkerchief and the jade bracelet that third son gave you."

He obviously felt that the person in his arms froze, and his little thoughts were exposed. Chu Xinle said shamelessly: "This is what I should take. Do the third son think that I slept for nothing? The sisters in Yanxiang Building slept for one night I still have to give you silver."

"You are different from them." Xing Yanhong said, thinking of something, he explained: "I only drink when I go to the building."

"Then what are you doing here with me? Just sleeping?" Chu Xinle asked.

Xing Yanhong pinched the back of his neck with his hands, and said with a sigh: "Yi An, I'm chasing you."
