Shen Huan knew that he could no longer hide the secret from Jiang Yubai, so he nodded.
When Jiang Yubai saw her like this, he knew that Shen Shijiu herself was still unaware of this matter.
He restrained his expression and didn't want to say more at this time.
The three of them had a pleasant meal, but two of them were weighed down by something.
After finishing their meal, the three returned to the clinic.
Shen Huan wanted to take her little disciple and leave the city directly, but Jiang Yubai still had something to ask her, so he held the two of them back and refused to let them leave.
The door of the clinic had been closed and the long queue in front of it had long since dispersed.
Jiang Yu and Bai Dai went around to the back door of the clinic, which was in a small alley and was extremely hidden.
But who knew that there was someone at the back door.
The man was sitting on the ground, leaning against the wall at the back door, his eyes closed, covered in blood. He looked seriously injured and his consciousness was almost unconscious.
It’s riding the wind.
Shen Shijiu exclaimed, "Master, it's Afeng!"
Shen Huan and Jiang Yubai ran over and checked Chengfeng. The wounds on his body were all caused by sharp weapons, and some of them looked like they had been there for several days. They were old wounds stacked on top of new ones. Now, his black clothes were covered in blood.
The two men helped Chengfeng in and put him in the ** in the inner room of the clinic.
After Chengfeng lay down on the bed, he completely lost consciousness.
When Jiang Yubai was treating his injuries, Shen Huan was helping him. This was the first time Shen Huan helped someone else.
"how's it going?"
Jiang Yubai applied medicine and bandaged the last wound before he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, the vital parts were avoided. He is now unconscious because of excessive blood loss. He needs to recuperate."
Shen Huan nodded. "However, why did Guard Feng suddenly appear here? Didn't he go somewhere else with Lord Pei? Where is Lord Pei?"
"I don't know either. I can only wait until Chengfeng wakes up and ask."
Jiang Yubai said to Shen Shijiu, "Xiao Shi, you stay here to look after A Feng for a while. Master and I have something to talk about."
Shen Shijiu nodded obediently.
Jiang Yubai and Shen Huan left the room and talked about something. They didn't come back until a long time later.
And Chengfeng slowly woke up at this time.
Jiang Yubai brought the medicine over and gave it to him to drink first, then he lowered his voice and asked, "How do you feel? I applied some painkillers to the wound. Is it feeling better?"
Shen Huan felt uncomfortable when he heard his tone. When did Jiang Yubai speak so gently
Chengfeng was still very weak. He supported himself on the edge of the bed and tried to sit up, but Jiang Yubai pressed him back down by his shoulders.
"Lie still. I just bandaged your wound. If you move, it will split again."
Chengfeng opened his mouth and said softly, "I'm fine."
Jiang Yubai snorted, "Yes, it's okay as long as you're not dead, right?"
Chengfeng said nothing, just coughed twice, but it sounded clearly painful.
Jiang Yubai quickly pinched an acupoint on his hand, and Chengfeng's cough finally subsided.
Shen Huan came up and said, "Excuse me, Guard Feng, can I ask you a question?"
Jiang Yubai looked at her, meaning, do you have to ask now
Shen Huan ignored him and asked, "Excuse me, Lord Pei, where did you go?"
Some fragments flashed through Chengfeng's mind, and he closed his eyes, "My master and I have been separated, and our whereabouts are unknown."
Shen Shijiu had been standing obediently and quietly by the side, but in fact he heard everything they said clearly. After hearing that Pei Zheng was missing, he suddenly grabbed his sleeves tightly.
Chengfeng's breathing was unstable, but he explained the whole story clearly in just a few words.
Pei Zheng left the imperial capital for no other reason than to secretly search for loopholes in the Queen's family power, almost draining out all of the Queen's power, and then slaughtered all the officials, including the five officials who went to Liuyun Villa together last time.
The emperor gave him the privilege to execute first and report later, and according to Pei Zheng's usual style, he would not leave any trouble behind and would just kill them all.
This incident caused an uproar in the court.
The queen also secretly arranged many assassins to ambush and hunt down Pei Zheng.
On the way back to the city, Chengfeng and Pei Zheng hardly slept for several days and nights. All the servants around them had been killed, leaving only two of them, and they were both seriously injured.
However, it is still nearly two days' journey to the imperial capital, and they don't know how many people will be waiting for them along the way.
"Master," Cheng Feng said, "The Queen is not even trying to hide her true intentions. She is here to take your life. If the Emperor knew about this,
Pei Zheng reached out and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes fierce, "Everyone must die.
Suddenly, several feather arrows appeared behind them. They dodged them with the wind. Suddenly, a cloud of smoke exploded in front of them, and then someone took advantage of the smoke to assassinate them.
Chengfeng dodged with great effort. When the smoke cleared, he was covered with wounds and there were killers lying on the ground under his feet. But Pei Zheng was nowhere to be seen.
Chengfeng searched everywhere but to no avail. He somehow managed to return to the imperial capital with his seriously injured body.
Pei Zheng’s disappearance was not something that could be made public, and Chengfeng could not return to the Prime Minister’s Residence for the time being, so he came to find Jiang Yubai.
But I didn’t expect to see Shen Huan and Shen Shijiu again.
After Shen Huan heard this, he understood what was happening and was afraid that Pei Zheng was in great danger.
I stayed in the clinic for a while and it was getting late.
Shen Huan wants to take Shen Jiu back to Guigu.
Jiang Yubai didn't try to stop him. He didn't intend to interfere in their affairs.
However, Jiang Yubai felt that Shen Huan was sometimes too controlling. Even though he was Shen Shijiu's master, he should not restrict his freedom in this way.
"Master Shen, please stay."
Jiang Yubai called out to Shen Huan and Shen Shijiu who were standing at the door.
Shen Shijiu has been a little absent-minded since he met Chengfeng this afternoon. Jiang Yubai knows that he is worried about Pei Zheng. Seeing him like this, it really makes people feel distressed.
Jiang Yubai called Shen Huan aside.
"Master Shen, you've seen that Xiao Shi must be very sad right now, but he's afraid that you'll be unhappy, so he's trying his best to hold it in. I also know that everything you've done is definitely for his own good, but is he living a good life right now? Do you know?"
Shen Huan glanced at his little disciple who was lowering his head not far away. "Even if he is not living well now, it will be better in the future. Sometimes, the temporary beauty in front of us is just to cover up the filth and corruption underneath. He can't see through it, so I will help him see through it."
Jiang Yubai paused, "Master Shen, you are more than just Xiao Shi's master, right? Do you have any other relationship? As I remember, Xiao Shi is a foreigner, are you too?"
Shen Huan looked at Jiang Yubai, she even wondered how Jiang Yubai could see that
"Master Shen, is this you?" Jiang Yubai asked again.
Shen Huan was afraid of him and nodded, "I am. You are right. My little disciple and I are indeed related by blood, so can you understand everything I did? He has suffered too much and suffered too much pain. You knew him before, and you should know it all without me saying it. He had no relatives to protect him before, so others treated him so casually. Now it's different. He has me. He is no longer alone. I can't let anyone hurt him for any reason. Do you understand?"
Shen Shijiu, who was standing by, raised his head and looked over. Jiang Yubai smiled at him, then said to Shen Huan, "I understand. I also understand how you feel, Master Shen."
Shen Huan patted his chest and let out a breath.
Jiang Yubai added, "But I don't support your approach."
Shen Huan's eyes widened, and he was about to continue discussing with Jiang Yubai, but Jiang Yubai leaned slightly towards Shen Huan, then walked towards Shen Shijiu.
Shen Shijiu was still buttoning the syrup from the candied haws on his cuffs, and Jiang Yubai touched his head.
"Xiao Shi, we just met and you're leaving again?"
Shen Shijiu nodded, "Doctor Jiang, you must take good care of Afeng and make sure Afeng gets better soon."
"Of course, you have to take care of yourself, too, okay? And..."
Jiang Yubai whispered to Shen Shijiu, "Don't listen to Master on everything. If Master is wrong, tell her. That way she will have a chance to correct it, right?"
Shen Shijiu thought for a moment and said, "Doctor Jiang is right. I understand."
Jiang Yubai smiled at him, "Xiao Shi is getting smarter and smarter. One day he will become even smarter. Maybe he will be even better than Pei Zheng."
Seeing the little guy's eyes sparkling with tears, Jiang Yubai finally realized what he had said, and he cursed himself in his heart.
Why mention Pei Zheng when there are so many people to mention
However, Jiang Yubai was actually very worried about Pei Zheng. After all, whether he could keep his life in prison depended entirely on Pei Zheng.
Shen Huan took his little disciple and left the imperial capital, and Jiang Yubai prepared a carriage for them.
The carriage still drove to a place far away from the entrance of Guigu and stopped.
