Qi Ning actually saw that the lights in the house were as bright as day, Eve was lying on the bed, her abdomen was opened, and her abdomen was full of blood. The short, fat old man was holding a strange knife in his hand, and his hands were even wearing gloves. Hearing Qi Ning's voice, he turned around, wearing a mask, raised his hand and waved, saying: "Close the door, no one can come in."
Yue Qingyun said: "Master Hou, wait a moment!" Without any explanation, he closed the door.
Qining frowned, hesitated for a moment, and walked back to his seat.
After sitting here, I waited for more than two hours. Yue Qingyun opened the door from time to time and asked his assistant for things, and the two assistants also came and went.
Late at night, the door finally opened, and Yue Qingyun was the first to come out. He was not old, but he looked tired at the moment. Qining had already greeted him, and before he opened the warehouse, Yue Qingyun had already said: "Master Hou. , Don’t be anxious, that girl should have come back to life.”
Qining was overjoyed when he saw the short, fat old man walking out. He had taken off his gloves and mask, the wine gourd was hanging on his waist, and he still had the old cloth bag on his shoulder.
"Senior...!" Qi Ning hurriedly handed over his hands: "May I ask your senior's name? Junior...!"
"My last name is not high, and my first name is not big either." The short and fat old man said with a smile: "Don't worry, the person is alive, but if someone pierces the body like this next time and hurts the vitals, I won't be able to make it in time. "
"Senior, are you saying... Eve is really fine?"
The short and fat old man said angrily: "If medical skills can save people's lives, do they still need to save people's lives? The temper I had two years ago would definitely make you unable to get out of bed. I spent three hours, and if I still can't survive, That means God wants her to die." He waved his hands and said, "That's all, I have other things to do, so I don't want to talk to you." He turned around and left.
Qi Ning never expected that this person would suddenly appear, save people, and then leave in a hurry. He was so surprised that he hurriedly said: "Senior, don't leave yet."
"Why, is there anyone left to save?" the short, fat old man asked with a smile.
Qi Ning said: "Senior saved Eve, I am very grateful to you. No matter what, please leave your name."
The short and fat old man smiled and said: "I know who you are, and don't think that I came here to save people with nothing to do. You are lucky. I happened to be in Chengdu right now. If I hadn't bumped into her, she would have died." "
"Yes." Qining nodded and said: "If it weren't for senior, Eve's life would definitely be in danger."
The short and fat old man said: "I still have something to do, so I can't stay any longer. By the way, little Tang Nuo is still with you, right? Take good care of her. If a hair is hurt, I won't spare you." After saying that, he shook his head and hummed. Go out with a little song.
Qi Ning's body trembled and he was stunned for a moment. In the blink of an eye, the short and fat old man had walked to the door and asked anxiously: "Senior, your surname is Li?"
The short and fat old man didn't answer. He looked short and fat, but his speed was really not slow. After leaving the door, Qining chased him to the door, but the short and fat old man had already disappeared.
Qi Ning was startled for a moment, thinking to himself that this old guy was really fast, but he already knew in his heart that this short, fat old man was most likely Tang Nuo's master, Old Man Li.
This person actually knew that Tang Nuo was with him. It seemed that he was very well informed.
Thinking of Eve, Qining hurriedly returned to the house and saw Eve lying on the couch, covered with a blanket. Qining reached out and touched Eve's forehead. Although her face was still pale, her body was not as before. So cold, but still unconscious.
"Master Marquis, the man gave the girl a few pills, and she will have to sleep for a long time." Yue Qingyun said respectfully from the side: "This old doctor's medical skills are very good, which I have never seen before."
Qining thought that Tang Nuo's medical skills were already very good, not to mention his master. Thinking that Old Man Li could arrive in time at this time, it seemed that God was taking great care of him.
"Can I take her away?" Qining asked.
Yue Qingyun said: "The old man told me that I need to lie here for three hours before I can move. Every three hours, I have to take medicine." He presented a porcelain bottle with both hands, "Master Hou, what's inside is medicine." This girl takes one pill every three hours. After twelve hours, she will be safe and sound, and she will be cured after another ten days of rest. This pill melts in the mouth, which is very convenient."
Qi Ning took the medicine bottle and said, "Doctor Yue, thank you for your hard work." He put away the medicine bottle, took a stack of banknotes from his arms, and regardless of how much they were, stuffed them over and said, "This is a little thank you. You can accept it." Down."
Yue Qingyun saw Qin Ning's bold move but how dare he take it. He waved his hands hurriedly and said: "Don't you dare, Lord Marquis, it was the old man who saved this girl just now. I was just helping him. That old man You are right, curing diseases and saving people is a matter within my seniority, and I will never dare to accept the reward from the Marquis."
"Don't refuse." Qining took two banknotes and said, "You guys are helping me. I also see that your two apprentices have contributed a lot. Please help me reward them."
Seeing Qi Ning's insistence, Yue Qingyun took it with both hands and said thank you, "Thank you, Lord Marquis, for the gift." The two apprentices beside him also thanked him and said, "Thank you, Lord Marquis, for the gift."
Qi Ning said: "Eve can't move now. She can't leave until the morning. Doctor Yue, I'll ask you to take a look here with me in case something changes. I'll take people out again at dawn."
Yue Qingyun hurriedly said: "Yes, yes!"
Qi Ning felt slightly relieved now that he knew that Eve was not in danger. Yue Qingyun had received the reward, and since he was the master of Jin Yihou, he immediately ordered his servants to prepare wine and food and place them in the small hall outside.
Qi Ning did not refuse. He did not eat much at last night's dinner. He sat down at the table and asked Zhou Shun to take a seat. Yue Qingyun was originally standing on the side, but Qin Ning asked him to sit down. Yue Qingyun could not have imagined that One day I will sit at the same table with the Marquis in Jinyi, and I will only dare to sit on half of my buttocks.
"Doctor Yue, do you know what happened to the Prince of Shu yesterday?" Qi Ning asked casually with a smile: "He was scolded by the King of Shu, and later he asked a doctor to see his injuries. You are the most skilled doctor in Chengdu. , are you invited to come over?"
"Are you hurt?" Yue Qingyun was stunned, as if he didn't know about this: "The villain doesn't know about this."
"Then if there are three disasters and two diseases in the Prince of Shu's palace, do you want to go and see it?" Qi Ning asked with a smile.
Yue Qingyun nodded and said proudly: "Master Hou, this little guy from the Prince of Shu's Mansion also goes there often. There are people in the palace who are sick. Unless he is not in the city, he will go there for diagnosis and treatment."
"So, the Prince of Shu was beaten with a stick, and it was not for you to see the injury?" Qining asked.
Yue Qingyun frowned and said: "Master Hou, is the prince injured? But I heard yesterday that the prince was listening to a play in the theater and rewarded an actor with two gold ingots."
"Are you sure it was last night?" Qining's expression remained unchanged.
Yue Qingyun nodded and said: "It's not wrong. Both the prince and the prince like to listen to operas. It's just that the prince rarely goes out of the palace and always works as a troupe in the palace. The prince doesn't like to stay in the palace and hangs around Chengdu Mansion all day long. Anyway, the prince is young and always does something...!" It seemed that he said too much and stopped in time.
Qi Ning smiled faintly, but a cold light flashed in his eyes.
In the morning, Qining fed Eve the pills and made sure that Eve could be moved. Then he carefully picked up Eve. With the help of Zhou Shun and Zhou Shun, he put Eve on the carriage and asked the groom to drive faster. Slowly and steadily, he returned to the official post and then took Eve back to the room.
Qining took a chair and sat by the bed, looking at the sleeping Eve. He felt relieved when he saw that Eve's face had regained some color.
Suddenly I heard a report from Zhou Shun outside: "Master Marquis, the Chief of the Shu Palace wants to see you!"
Qi Ning said calmly: "Tell him that I haven't seen anyone in the past two days. I will go back to see the King of Shu and ask him to tell the King of Shu that I wish the prince to recover soon."
Zhou Shun agreed, and after a long time, he came back and said: "Master Marquis, Ximen Changshi said that the King of Shu has been worried about Miss Eve. He originally wanted to come to visit in person, but he is just recuperating in the mansion and will come to visit after he feels better. Ximen Changshi also told the Marquis that the King of Shu would send people to find the real culprit behind the assassination at all costs, and he must give an explanation to the Marquis. He also brought many gifts. "
Qi Ning said: "I understand, you are guarding outside. No one is allowed to enter the official post without my order." There was a sneer on his lips.
The whole day, Qining stayed by Eve's side, putting pills into Eve's mouth every three hours.
In the middle of the night, Qining was sitting on a chair, half asleep and half awake. He suddenly felt his hands getting cold. He was very alert and immediately opened his eyes, only to see that Eve had already opened her eyes. He stretched out his hand from the quilt and put it on the back of his hand, and those beautiful eyes were staring at him.
Qining was overjoyed when he saw Eve waking up. He immediately grabbed her hand and said happily: "Sister Eve, you... you finally woke up. This... this is really great!"
Eve still looked very weak, but there was a smile on her lips, and a trace of love in her eyes, and she said softly: "You... why are you sleeping here... If you sleep, you will catch a cold...!"
Qining came closer, held Eve's hand, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm in good health, even the coldest month of winter can't freeze me. Sister Eve, how do you feel now?"
"I... my mouth is a little bitter and fishy...!" Eve frowned and said, "I... I'm not dead?"
"Of course not." Qining saw that Eve had become more confident in her words, and he admired Old Man Li so much in his heart, "You have taken medicine, so your mouth is a little bitter. It doesn't matter. I will take you when you are better." Eat something sweet and delicious.”
"I slept... for how long?" Eve saw the darkness outside the window, "Did I sleep for a long time?"
Qining shook his head and said: "No, it's only one day. Sister Eve, you will be fine. God won't let anything happen to you, so he sent the gods to save you."
"Fairy...?"
Qi Ning did not hide anything, and talked about what happened last night. Eve was a little surprised and said: "There is such a... such a powerful person...?" He coughed slightly and frowned, Qi Ning hurriedly said: "Don't do it yet. Talk and take good care of yourself, the old doctor said that you can recover as long as you take ten days of rest."
At this moment, I heard Qi Feng's voice coming from outside: "Master Hou, I am Qi Feng, I have something to report!"
