Gao Qiu had been waiting outside the door for a long time. When he saw Lin Wanrong come out happily, he went up to look at his forehead and was shocked, "Brother Lin, what happened to you? Was there an assassin in the manor? How did you get so heavily injured? "
He was so happy just now that he didn't think about it. It would have been better if Gao Qiu didn't mention it, but once he mentioned it, Lin Wanrong felt a burning pain on his forehead. He reached out to touch it, only to feel that it was soft and there was a big bump.
He grimaced in pain and snorted, "It's nothing big. It's just that I didn't wear my eyes when I walked on the fake mountain in the Xu manor and bumped into me. Brother Gao, help me take a look. Is it heavy? Will it damage my handsome face? Damn it, I'm relying on this face to make a living. "
Gao Qiu laughed when he heard this and waved his hand, "It's okay, as long as I didn't bump into your mouth, it's nothing big. It won't stop you from eating and flirting with girls."
Look at what this old man is saying. I earn money to eat, I put my heart into picking up girls, and I rely on real skills. It's not as simple as just talking. Lin Wanrong rolled her eyes, unconvinced.
Gao Qiu rummaged through his clothes and saw many bottles and jars. Lin Wanrong's eyes were sharp and saw many famous medicines like the Luohan Buddhist Staff and the Celestial Unclothed Shirt. He was instantly envious and sighed, "Brother Gao, you really live up to your name. You actually bring so many spiritual pills and medicines when you travel the pugilistic world. I think you won't be able to use them all even in ten lifetimes. Those chivalrous women in the pugilistic world are really lucky."
Seeing Brother Lin's face full of perverted and dirty smiles, Gao Qiu was a little afraid of him after the experience of dealing with Young Master Luo on the way back from Hangzhou. He quickly kept all the treasures and said, "Brother Gao, do you think I'm that kind of person? Towards the girls I like, I mainly focus on nurturing my feelings. Medicine is secondary, medicine is secondary … "
What a good medicine is secondary. To think that you could say such a thing. How did I make friends with such a scum like you? You have the same personality as me! Lin Wanrong laughed heartily and patted Gao Qiu's shoulder, feeling a sense of mutual appreciation.
Gao Qiu rummaged for a long time before he found a bottle of ointment and slowly applied it on him. He asked with a sneaky smile, "Brother, how's it going? Look at your proud expression, could it be that you have succeeded?! That Miss Xu is a famous cold beauty in the capital city. She is virtuous and knowledgeable. I never thought that you would marry her. Old Brother congratulates you here! "
This Old Gao was indeed a person who was used to "using drugs as a supplement". Not to mention the fact that his eyebrows were not straight, the moment he opened his mouth, he used these underworld terms. He said that he had succeeded and picked. What kind of person did he think he was? I've always been a flower that blooms at the right time, and only two hearts know each other. What I'm focusing on is the communication of the heart and the resonance of the body. I don't need to use medicine. Lin Wanrong greatly despised Old Gao in his heart. He wanted to answer his question, but he was also a little confused. He was just talking to Miss Xu when she chased him out. What was going on? Did he succeed or not?
"Brother, how was it? Did you succeed or not? Oh, what's there to be embarrassed about between us brothers? Just tell the truth! "Gao Qiu looked at him eagerly and said eagerly.
I really failed to live up to Brother Gao's trust. Lin Wanrong lowered his head in shame, "I failed!"
Failed? Gao Qiu's expression suddenly became serious. He nodded seriously and said, "Miss Xu is really worthy of being called Miss Xu. She can actually make Brother Lin San rebuff you. If this matter is spread out, I'm afraid that her reputation and prestige will double. No, I can't let her succeed. I must help you. Brother … "He shook the bottles and jars in his arms, glanced around, and said mysteriously," Which medicine do you want? You can choose it yourself. I have all my belongings here. Do you think this will work? This is called Song of Fierce Maiden. It's the most popular one this year. The brothel keepers who have just accepted a pure girl in the brothel will drink this. One packet is worth ten packets — "
Why is this Old Gao not afraid of anything? Am I that kind of person? Lin Wanrong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He hurriedly laughed, "Thank you for your kindness, Brother Gao. There's no rush. I'll buy medicine from you when I need it in the future."
The two of them talked for a while. After Gao Qiu finished applying the ointment for him, the two of them were about to leave. The vermilion door of the Xu Family's mansion opened with a whoosh. The little maid Yu Zhu rushed in and hurriedly said, "Master Lin, Master Lin, please stay for a while —"
"Little sister, what's the matter?" Lin Wanrong smiled, "We're outside the mansion now. If you touch me again, you'll have to pay!"
She had never seen such a shameless person. The little maid's face turned red from embarrassment, and her head hung down to her chest. She said softly, "Lin, Master Lin, Young Miss told me to give you this letter and bottle of medicine. You can read it yourself. I, I have to leave. "
Yu Zhu stuffed a letter and a small medicine bottle into his hands. She turned around and quickly ran away. She didn't dare to stay a moment longer. Gao Qiu curiously took the medicine bottle. He glanced at it and sighed, "Brother Lin, you've already succeeded, but you still hid it from me. To think that I, Old Gao, was worried about you."
Succeeded?! I didn't. Lin Wanrong felt wronged. Gao Qiu laughed and shook the medicine bottle in his hand, "You still want to hide it from me? Look, what's this? "
"Ointment." Lin Wanrong didn't understand, "What's so special about it?"
"It's ointment. Moreover, it's a top-notch ointment. This medicine uses dew from willow branches in the third month of spring and snow lotus flowers from icebergs. It reduces swelling and relieves pain. Every drop is effective. It's a miraculous effect." Gao Qiu nodded proudly, showing off his knowledge.
Lin Wanrong was confused. Dew from willow branches in the third month and snow lotus flowers from icebergs. These can reduce swelling and pain, but what does it have to do with whether I succeeded or not?
"Pretending, pretending again," Gao Qiu chuckled and said, "Brother Lin, you're so knowledgeable, and you can write poems and lyrics. Don't tell me you don't know what this medicine is called among you scholars?!"
I'm a f * cking stupid scholar. Lin Wanrong laughed, "Brother Gao, don't you know my personality? Have you ever seen a scholar as strong and powerful as me, who can torture people to death? "
That's true. Looking at Brother Lin's appearance, he doesn't wear a white robe or carry a folding fan. He's always fooling around with the ladies of various families. He doesn't look like a scholar at all. Gao Qiu happily nodded and laughed, "It's no wonder you don't know. Think about it. Dew from spring and snow from icebergs. Such good things. If they were to spread among scholars and beauties, how could the name of the medicine not change? Ointment. What a tacky name! "
"Then what is it called?" Seeing that Gao Qiu was rambling on and on, not getting down to business, Lin Wanrong became impatient and quickly pulled him to ask.
"Isn't that easy to guess?!" Gao Qiu laughed, "Dew from spring and snow from icebergs. Together, isn't it Spring Breeze Dew? This ointment is called Spring Breeze Dew! I don't know how those rich young masters and ladies came up with this name. "
Spring Breeze Dew?! Lin Wanrong sucked in a breath of cold air. What a lascivious name. It was almost comparable to an immortal taking off his clothes! He quickly opened the envelope and glanced at the letter, "Flowers fall in the spring breeze, cold dew knows. Who cut the candle in the window, tears fall in the night rain. "
The handwriting was graceful and neat. It was written by Miss Xu herself. Lin Wanrong also understood the meaning of this poem. When a hundred flowers wither, the spring breeze knows, and when the cold sun comes, dew foretells. However, no one pitied this young lady who shed tears on a rainy night. This was a true love poem, and there was a sense of self-reproach between the lines. Miss Xu was indeed talented.
Looking further down, there was a line of small words in the letter, "My matter, you already know. I only hope that the golden phoenix will come and the door will open. "
This sentence without a beginning or end made Lin Wanrong stunned. What golden phoenix will come? What door will open? Is this a riddle? He thought carefully. "Oh," he immediately understood. Wasn't the golden phoenix Qing Xuan? Xu Zhiqing meant that Qing Xuan would come to propose in person, so that she would agree. This girl was really obsessed with Qingxuan. Perhaps all talented girls who were virtuous and virtuous had this problem.
But this Xu girl didn't think about what kind of person Qing Xuan was. Before she met Lin Wanrong, who did she put in her eyes? If she knew that this Miss Xu wanted to compete with her, how could she come to propose?
Lin Wanrong's head was as big as a cow. Now, there were two mountains in his family. One was led by Xian 'er, supported by the Xiao Family mother and daughter. The other was led by Qing Xuan, protected by Ning' er and Qiaoqiao. If there was Xu Zhiqing, who didn't touch either side, wouldn't it be a mess?
"Brother Lin, is something good about to happen?! Is Miss Xu urging you to propose? "Seeing the change in expression on Lin Wanrong's face, Gao Qiu laughed.
Lin Wanrong's face turned stiff, "What do you mean? If I mention it, everything will be messed up. I can't get used to her bad habit! "
Gao Qiu gave a thumbs up in admiration. He dared to not put Miss Xu in his eyes. This Brother Lin was really too awesome.
Lin Wanrong put the Spring Breeze Dew, the letter, and the love poem into her bosom, then glanced at the Xu Mansion with a longing gaze. He didn't know if that Xu girl was hiding somewhere and secretly looking at him. Once he left, the Lin San doll in the residence would suffer. He didn't know how much torture he would have to endure.
He couldn't be bothered. He pulled Gao Qiu and walked two steps. Beside him was his residence. Thinking about how Qing Xuan, Ning 'er, and Qiaoqiao were still packing for him in the residence, he missed them very much. He took large strides towards the door.
"Brother, you can't go," Gao Qiu hurriedly pulled him back and pointed mysteriously at his forehead, "You are injured. The Princess and Miss Luo are all smart people. They will be exposed after a few words."
That was reasonable. Gao Dage's alertness was high. Lin Wanrong hurriedly stopped walking. Thinking about the difficult problem Xu Zhiqing had given him, he shook his head helplessly and sighed. This was called not being able to eat the lamb and then getting involved. Now that he had an injury, if Qing Xuan and the others saw it, they would definitely be dissatisfied with Xu Zhiqing. At that time, it would be even harder to deal with. He couldn't think of a good solution so he didn't bother with these messy matters. He changed the subject, asking, "Gao Dage, over at Cheng Wang Fu, how many people are watching?"
Speaking of proper matters, Gao Qiu didn't dare to joke around. He answered seriously, "There are at least a hundred people, all trustworthy brothers, hiding around his residence. Xu daren has said that without military orders, no one can alert the big fish. "
A hundred people, this wasn't a small commotion. Lin Wanrong muttered to himself for a long time, then started walking outside. "Gao Dage, come with me to take a look." Gao Qiu responded and hurriedly followed behind him.
He had come to Cheng Wang's fu many days ago. It was that night, in this wang fu, that Lin Wanrong had seen the true side of An Bi Ru. Thinking about that seductive fox's weak eyes, her helpless tears, his heart roiled and he sighed. If he could go back in time, he definitely wouldn't make such a stupid mistake.
What was that seductive fox doing now, was she still busy with matchmaking? She was purposefully trying to anger me to death. Looking at that tall fu, the glorious jade walls and carved railings, the prosperity of the past, An jiejie's every frown and smile floated in front of his eyes, Lin Wanrong's heart was bitter and bitter.
The carriages in front of the wang fu were still coming and going. It looked as prosperous as before. But those who were observant could see that this situation was very different from the days when Cheng Wang had power. It was like the difference between the sky and the earth. Although the recent series of changes in personnel in the court were secretly arranged by the Emperor without his knowledge and did not give people the feeling that it was as fierce as a knife cutting through flesh, the officials in the court lived under these kinds of days. Naturally, their sense of smell was abnormally sensitive. If there was even the slightest movement of grass in the wind, there would already be people smelling this kind of smell. Intentionally or unintentionally, they gradually distanced themselves from Cheng Wang.
"Lin xiongdi, it's here." Gao Qiu groped in the dark in the alley opposite the wang fu. He found the door of a normal family and knocked lightly on the door knocker. Three long knocks and two short knocks.
The door opened with a crash. A strong man poked his head out. Seeing Gao Qiu, he instantly had a happy expression, "Commander Gao, you've come."
Gao Qiu nodded. He pointed at Lin Wanrong at the side, "This is Lin San, Lin daren. Come greet him."
"You are the Lin daren who killed the Tu Yue's military advisor?" The guard was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed.
Speaking of this matter, Lin Wanrong still felt uncomfortable. He sighed helplessly, "Shameful, shameful. I made him run again and disappointed the brothers. "
"This cannot be blamed on you, we all know that." The guard hurriedly comforted him and said, "Lin daren, Commander Gao, you came at the right time. Xu daren just came and is talking in the room."
Before he finished, Xu Wei's voice came from inside, "Little brother Lin? Come in and talk. "
Lin Wanrong and Gao Qiu walked in and saw Xu Wei wearing a tattered cotton robe. A winter hat hung on his head and there was some pot dust on his face. At first glance, they really couldn't recognize him.
This Old Xu came in disguise. Lin Wanrong felt funny inside his heart. A famous person like Old Xu will be recognized wherever he goes. If he doesn't disguise himself, he won't be able to act.
"Xu Daren is willing to make this sacrifice for the country's affairs. This younger brother admires you." Lin Wanrong smiled and cupped his fist. These words were not completely teasing. For a virtuous scholar like Xu Wei to act like this, it was not an easy thing to do.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Xu Wei laughed and pulled him to the side. When no one was around, he lowered his voice and said: "Little brother Lin, what about the thing I asked you to do? Have you seen Zhi 'er? Didn't I tell you that there is no one in the house today, so you can act freely? "
This matter was a long story. Lin Wanrong was embarrassed to say that he was kicked out by Miss Xu. After thinking for a long time, he said: "Miss Xu, I have seen her — —"
"Seen her?!" Xu Wei was overjoyed and held his hand tighter: "How is it? What gift did you give her? Today is Zhi 'er's birthday celebration, is she happy? "
Lin Wanrong smiled shyly: "I gave myself to her — —"
"What?" Old Xu was shocked, his beard trembled and said: "You, how can you do such a thing? My daughter is still a pure daughter. Hurry, hurry up and ask a matchmaker to propose marriage. You will get married tomorrow! "
This Old Xu's thoughts were really unhealthy. I haven't finished my words, but he already thought about it. After looking at Xu Wei with contempt, Lin Wanrong awkwardly said: "Xu Daren, what are you thinking? I just gave her a gift. There is nothing improper. Miss Xu and I are very pure."
"Very pure?" Xu Wei's face suddenly became a bit disappointed: "Why not — — ah, no, I mean, why not accompany her to celebrate her birthday? Oh, what's wrong with your forehead? Are you hurt? "
Lin Wanrong touched the big bump on his forehead and sighed: "Because of technical reasons, there was a small human error, which led to the failure of the birthday celebration. But you can rest assured, Miss Xu should be happy. "
His words were like a book from heaven. Even if Old Xu was the most knowledgeable person in the world, he can't guess the mystery behind it. He helplessly waved his hand and smiled: "You young people, you can do whatever you want. I can't control it even if I want to. As long as my daughter is happy, that's fine."
This was a typical case of throwing away the burden. Lin Wanrong didn't fall into his trap, he laughed and said: "Look at what Xu Daren said, we young people lack experience. We need your guidance. Others may not understand, but I don't know. In the past, you were also a master in the world — —"
"Lin Xiongdi, Xu Daren, this is not good." Before his voice fell, Gao Qiu rushed in and hurriedly said: "Prince Cheng is here!"
