C12 (1/2)
The injuries on their bodies were not really serious, so there was no need for Luo Yi to say anything. Xu Heng only looked miserable on the outside, but was actually just a superficial wound.
The doctor tidied up the medical case, politely bowed to the Incorruptible Doctor, and left two prescriptions. Only then did he slowly and unhurriedly exit the room that was crowded with too many people.
But somehow, Xu Heng, who was usually such a clever person, acted as if he was suddenly struck dumb. Not only did he ignore her hinting, he even innocently turned his head and expressed his gratitude to the Incorruptible Medical Hall. ”Thank you very much Brother Lian today, if not for you …”
Firstly, Xu Heng was almost unwilling to reveal any details to her, and she didn't even know what Xu Heng's motive for doing all these was, but there was always a reason behind Xu Heng's actions. Occasionally, she would guess, but he would always guess incompletely, afraid that he would accidentally say something that would ruin Xu Heng's plans.
She clearly knew who was behind this calamity today.
Just a second ago, this person was asking them if they had offended someone.
Luo Yi closed her eyes and strived to be a qualified vase.
On the other hand, Xu Heng and the Lianzhi were acting very courteously, and when Luo Yi heard that, she almost fell asleep a second ago, but the conversation between the two of them caused her to fall asleep once again.
What kind of strange plot was this?!
Luo Yi looked at Xu Heng in astonishment, seeing him raise his eyebrows and smile at him, she said: ”Brother Lian said that we have provoked some kind of hoodlum, so it is obviously not safe to stay at this inn again, so we are invited to stay at his residence for a few days.”
I heard it, and I'm not deaf.
Luo Yi didn't even know what kind of expression she should make at this moment. She thought for a moment. ”This isn't quite appropriate, is it …?”
She raised her eyes. ”How can you be so annoying …”
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the Medical Examiner. ”What's there to be courteous about? Rest assured, Miss Luo.” He anxiously yelled with loyalty, ”I will definitely find out which bastard dared to treat you like this.”
You bastard...
Luo Yi secretly looked at Xu Heng, and seeing that it was none of her business, she guessed that Xu Heng had agreed to stay in the General's House, and carefully nodded his head. Since both of them were injured, it was hard for them to move, so they temporarily stayed in the inn. In order to prevent the previous group of people from coming to seek revenge, the Liefeng Priest left behind a team of soldiers to take care of their safety.
Even though they were guards, the remaining two people in the house knew that this was a blatant surveillance. Including the Liefeng Priest saying that they were moving to the general's manor for safety, it was actually a better way to say that they were under house arrest.
Xu Heng poured a cup of tea for himself. After drinking a mouthful, he realized that the tea was cold, and then frowned and said that the incorruptible medicine table looked big and tall.
Luo Yi paused, she could not figure out the causal link between his brain and his brain.
”Ah, that's right!” Xu Heng ordered Luo Yi: ”Give me a new pot of tea. It's hot.”
Luo Yi, ”...”
However, just as she was about to leave, she suddenly exposed her true nature. She leaned over the bed and ordered Luo Yi to be her servant, but she was not able to resist, because whenever she revealed even the slightest hint of rejection, Xu Heng would count the wounds on his body one by one. ”For who is this person injured …”
For the sake of the common people of the world and the great belief that you were born not to be trampled upon?
Luo Yi thought.
But thinking about it, Luo Yi would definitely not have said that out loud. After all, at that time, Xu Heng had indeed protected her tightly in his embrace.
She had never had any parents in her life, and apart from Lin Ting and Tang Yuan, there weren't many people who truly treated her well. Therefore, she was always a bit prejudiced against favors, not to mention that Xu Heng had been treating her so well from the very first day they had met.
Therefore, she was already prepared for Xu Heng to request something from her from the start. But until now, other than helping him steal a key that was of no use, Xu Heng had never taken the initiative to ask her to do anything else, nor had she even mentioned her most basic plans. It was as if he was deliberately trying to pull her out of this mess.
Xu Heng leaned against the headboard, with half of his long hair tied up around his shoulders. His clearly shameless movements actually gave off a feeling of laziness.
Luo Yi felt a lump in her throat.
The general's residence was extremely luxurious. The plaque on the door was even written by His Majesty himself. It was clear that this general held a high position within the Northern Military Court.
Of course, these words did not come from Luo Yi, nor did it come from Xu Heng.
At that time, the three of them were walking towards the general's residence together. Originally, there was a carriage, but Xu Heng said that it had been many days since he had walked out of bed, and it had been such a long time since he had last walked out, and he really didn't want to sit on such a beautiful scenery. Only then did the doctor remove the carriage, and the three of them walked back to the general's residence together.
Who would have thought that on the way, he would coincidentally bump into the loitering Minister of Revenue.
Liu Liangyun was usually quite popular. Even a military general like the incorruptible one who always looked down on civil officials was willing to stop and chat with him. ”Where is Sir Liu going?”
”General Liam?” Liu Liangyun walked in a hurry and kept his head down as he walked. When he was stopped by someone, he suddenly raised his head and bowed to the doctor, ”I heard that the Ma Family's bank was robbed last night. I have some relationship with the Ma Family's Patriarch. ”These two are …”
He seemed to have noticed Xu Heng and Xu Heng, and frowned as he sized them up for a while. He felt that they were unfamiliar, as he had never seen them by the side of the medicine table before, and had not heard him mention them before, so he instinctively did not trust them.
