After breaking off the marriage, the Zhuangyuan Lang who was picked up was dressed weakly every day

Chapter 191 Treat him alone
After seeing off Shen Yanhan and Lu Yuan, and Doctor Jiang leaving, Cai Xizhu took a deep breath, patted her cheeks that were hot due to nervousness with both hands, and then began to tidy up the cabinets.

While she was packing the weights, she was thinking about how she would confess her affair with Meng Changqing when Shen Yanhan came to deliver medicine to her later. A very familiar voice came from the door -

"Doctor Jiang, Dr. Jiang, go and help!"

Shen Yanhan's figure running across the threshold came into view. Cai Xizhu looked surprised: "Jiao Jiao? Whose life can I save?"

Shen Yanhan gasped for breath and didn't bother to answer his friend's words. He frowned and asked, "Where is Doctor Jiang? Is he still like this?"

Her anxiety seemed to be transmitted to Cai Xizhu, who nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes."

Doctor Jiang appeared at the inner door and asked in confusion: "Who does Madam Shen want me to save?"

"so many people!"

As Shen Yanhan spoke, she stepped forward and hugged Dr. Jiang's arms: "Follow me!"

This posture is like kidnapping someone out.

An old man was being held up by a young man. Dr. Jiang's old face was stiff and his body was stretched crookedly. He kept saying: "Slow down, slow down..."

Although Shen Yanhan was anxious, she still took care of Dr. Jiang's age and didn't really pull him to rush out.

But she didn't give Dr. Jiang a chance to break free.

While controlling Dr. Jiang's people, she turned towards Cai Xizhu and said urgently: "Hurry up and take the medicine box and follow!"

Cai Xizhu sensed the seriousness of the situation from Shen Yanhan's anxious behavior and nodded repeatedly: "I understand! I'll take care of it right now!"

She has been familiar with the process of emergency medical visits since she was a child. Just like her father did in the past, she started to put various first-aid items in the medicine box as soon as she found it.

Being kidnapped by the "internal and external cooperation", Dr. Jiang could only blow his gray beard and stare, listening to the sound of his new apprentice banging and opening cabinet doors and drawers, with a look of helplessness on his face.

After a while, the door of "Ankang Hall" was closed and a "Closed" sign was hung.

*
There are 16 people in total at the end of the alley, six small and ten large.

When they saw Dr. Jiang, one of them pulled the other over. When they all raised their heads, they all immediately fell silent.Even the youngest child who only knew how to cry "Daddy" stopped and looked at the old doctor who came.

They know they are saved.

At the same time, he also understood what the little lady who turned around and ran away after taking one look at them was doing.

Shen Yanhan was dressed in bright colors, like a colorful butterfly with thick ink, flying into a dead ink painting, injecting life and hope.

She pointed to the person next to the person lying on the ground and decided loudly: "This is the doctor, you all get out of the way and let him check the pulse first!"

The four people lying down were Doctor Jiang's priority for pulse diagnosis. In the silence, Doctor Jiang shook his head three times.

Shen Yanhan, who had seen Cai Yu shaking his head next to Qi Yun's couch who was having difficulty giving birth five years ago, understood what this meant.

Cai Xizhu also understands.

No one can remain indifferent in the face of death.

The two young ladies looked at each other, and the color on their faces suddenly faded from the fragility of life.

Cai Xizhu bit her lip and her eyes were red.

It's freezing cold, and it's not only these people who are suffering, but also the man in the prison...

She didn't want to think about it, but her father had been very protective of her since she was little, so how could she not think about it?Even though he was guilty, even though his love for her was accompanied by regret for her mother, she was his only daughter.

At this time, Dr. Jiang whispered "My condolences" in a low voice, then returned to the one who was still breathing and said: "Hel her sit up."

Cai Xizhu held back her tears, ran over quickly, and knelt down to help.

The heartbreaking wailing sounded again, and the scene that seemed to have been temporarily frozen due to the arrival of Shen Yanhan and the others began to flow again.

Some people yelled, "You will not save me until you die." They tried to pounce on Dr. Jiang, but were held back by others. Some people sat down weakly, their faces ashen. Some people knelt on the ground and prayed to Dr. Jiang, "Doctor, please do it." "Okay"; some hugged each other without saying a word...

Shen Yanhan looked at everything in front of him that seemed to be empty but not empty, and felt like his heart was twisting in a knife.

How could she not see that those three people were all frozen to death?

One alley away is the most prosperous commercial area of ​​Lin'an Prefecture. As a businessman there, she is used to seeing customers wearing gold and silver and luxury cars covered with jade and brocade. She never thought that just a mile away In this dark place where we can't reach, there are still a group of people who have no food to eat and no fixed place to live.

When the reality of "the wine and meat in the wealthy family stinks, and the bones on the road that are frozen to death" came into reality, at this moment, Shen Yanhan, who should have stayed out of the matter, really couldn't move a step.

*
It has been snowing in Lin'an Mansion for days and has not stopped for a moment, so the servants in charge of sweeping the house are busy.

Occasionally, if someone is caught taking a break while busy, the supervisor will rush up and give him a severe lesson.

In the corner outside the Hanlin Academy gate, there was a little snow-sweeper who was being scolded with his ears twisted: "Look at how the snow is piled up? We can't afford it if any master falls. You Are you still dawdling here! Are you going to die?"

The little waiter whose ears had been pinched was so painful that he stood on tiptoe. He let out a few "Alas" in pain and said straightly: "I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore, I'll sweep now, I'll sweep now."

The supervisor was still unyielding, and his hand was a little more forceful: "I think you have a short memory, and you don't have a good harvest——"

Before he even finished the word "pick up", he suddenly felt a slight pain on his shoulder. Then, there was a voice behind him that sounded like a smile but not a smile:

"Oh, Mr. Zhonggui, what big thing is it that deserves your anger?"

Wang Guan, who was known as the "middle nobleman", turned around and was immediately surprised. He put his finger on the young chamberlain's ear, put on another face, and smiled apologetically: "Meng Yushi, Bachelor of Qi."

Meng Changqing took back the fan that was slapping someone on the shoulder, with a smile on his lips, making people wonder if he was joking.

Beside him, Qin Yuehuai looked at Wang Guan expressionlessly.

Wang Guan's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a bit strange.

These two people are said to be high-ranking but not that important, and said to be insignificant but not so light.But at the moment, the two of them looked gentle, but actually had an extremely oppressive aura, which was very frightening.

It is not surprising that a nobleman like Meng Silang from Tianhuang has the status of an imperial emissary who oversees hundreds of officials. It is not surprising that he has such an aura. However, although this Bachelor of Qi is a top scholar, he has only been an official for a few months, so he should still be in the official position. You can't develop this kind of courage. How come this kind of momentum is on par with Meng Silang's?

He rolled his eyes, and after a few moments of doubt, he heard Meng Changqing say "hmm".

Wang Guan came to his senses and explained: "Meng Yushi, you don't know something. The snow will not be saved if it is not swept away in time. The people below are lazy, and I dare not not urge them more."

Meng Changqing's tone was still smiling: "Come on, if the snow falls in the second half of the year, they will have to sweep it without stopping for half a year?"

The chamberlain choked, then said with a smile: "Meng Yushi is joking."

Meng Changqing smiled at the corner of his mouth and looked at Wang Guan with his eyes. Wang Guan felt uncomfortable all over, and then he said quietly: "Let's go."

Looking at the backs of the two people of about the same height leaving, Wang Guan frowned behind them.

When did Meng Silang, who had always been so idle, come to take charge of such a trivial matter as punishing a servant?However, although he was confused in his heart and turned to look at the little chamberlain with his head hanging down, he still had some scruples and stopped reaching out to pull his ears.

Meng Changqing is naturally not a person who sees injustice on the road.

He took action today because he went out with Qin Yuehuai and ran into this scene. Qin Yuehuai stopped in his tracks, said nothing, and looked straight at the young chamberlain who was being grabbed.

And he could see a hint of pain in Qin Qi's innocent eyes.

It was just a matter of effort, so he took action.

Away from the sweeping place, Meng Changqing gave a "tsk" sound and said angrily: "Qin Qi, you are too soft-hearted. Can you handle so many people who are being bullied?"

Only those who have been bullied can know what it feels like to be bullied.

Qin Yuehuai glanced at him sideways: "I don't care, you do."

He was being used as a gunman, but now he had the audacity to distance himself from the relationship. Meng Changqing raised a folding fan and hit his chest hard: "It wasn't you who was staring at people with fire just now? It wasn't you who breathed a sigh of relief after I took care of it? You still have it?" No conscience? Huh?"

Qin Yuehuai walked forward without looking back: "No."

Meng Changqing was furious and kicked him on the buttocks. Qin Yuehuai, knowing that he was plotting against him, quickly took a step to the side to avoid Meng Changqing's raised leg.

There was still ice on the ground, so he exerted too much force, and the foot he was standing on the ground slipped unexpectedly, and he almost split himself on the snow.

Shame!

What a shame!

Meng Changqing staggered to his feet, his crotch was hurting, and he was about to curse when he found that the culprit in front of him froze.

Looking past him, he saw his cousin Qin Xi walking from a distance. Behind Qin Xi was their good friend Tang You.

Meng Changqing calmed down the expression on his face, took a step forward, and stood beside Qin Yuehuai.

Qin Yuehuai knelt down a few inches and tightened his shoulders a little, showing a humble and gentle temperament just like he always did in front of others.

Qin Xi was obviously surprised when he saw Meng Changqing.This cousin usually only goes to court or has a meal. He rarely waits until the right time to go to work, but today is an exception.

When he arrived, he took the initiative to greet me warmly: "My cousin is still here."

After saying that, he shifted his gaze to Qin Yuehuai with doubt in his eyes: "Who is this?"

Qin Yuehuai kept his eyebrows lowered. When Qin Xi asked him, he still did not raise his head. He raised his hands and saluted gently: "I am a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. I have met Qin Shaojian at Qi Banquet."

"Qi Yan?" Qin Xi asked, "Is he the number one scholar in this subject?"

Qin Yuehuai: "Yes."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang You took a deep breath and turned pale.

He and Qin Yuehuai had known each other for several years, and they called each other brothers. It was impossible not to recognize who was with Meng Changqing in front of him.

When did he call him "Qi Yan"?

Also, why has his body shape changed?

Qin Xi was still looking Qin Yuehuai up and down, and Tang You didn't look good either. Meng Changqing simply raised his folding fan and pointed at Qin Yuehuai, breaking the awkward silence: "I've made a special trip to wait for him to get off duty, let's go have a drink together." , recite a poem, cousin, would you like to go with me?"

Meng Changqing's literary talents have always been half-filled, but the more he lacks something, the better he can express it.People often linger in the flower streets and willow alleys, eating wine with talented women and beauties, reciting poems, and enjoying themselves happily.Now I meet Qi Yan, a young man who has just entered the official position through the imperial examination, and it is not out of the ordinary to seduce people to go out to drink and write poems.

Qin Xi did not take their relationship to heart and said, "I still have something to do, so I won't accompany my cousin. My cousin is having a great time."

Meng Changqing nodded and didn't ask Qin Xi what happened. He went to Tang You and asked him, "Is Brother Ziguan free?"

Unlike Qin Yuehuai, who had a secret friendship with Tang You, Meng Changqing had an upright relationship with Tang You.

Tang You looked at Meng Changqing's expectant look, then caught a glimpse of Qin Yuehuai's lowered eyebrows from the corner of his eye, and suddenly understood what Meng Changqing was saying yesterday, "Have you met someone else?" and what the two of them were hiding from him.

Thinking of this, a small thorn in Tang You's heart suddenly popped up. He could have paid off after delivering these booklets, but he said: "I have something to do today, so I won't go."

Meng Changqing was a little surprised, but when he saw that Tang You looked bad, he said, "Okay, let's meet again another day."

"it is good."

*
After Tang You and Qin Xi left, Meng Changqing asked Qin Yuehuai worriedly: "You haven't seen him yet, right?"

Obviously this was asking him if he had contacted Tang You after living under his new identity. Qin Yuehuai told the truth: "I have been to the Tang Mansion several times and I haven't seen anyone else. I usually don't have any official business related to the Secretary Department. It’s not convenient to go there during the time, so…”

After Tang You became an official, Tang You's mother Fu finally felt relieved. After Tang You went off duty, he often went to the restaurant on the street of Zheng Mansion to drink. The hour is night after night.

If you really want to go to Tang Mansion, it will be really difficult to find others.

Meng Changqing sighed and reminded: "Since the divorce, he has been very sensitive."

Qin Yuehuai turned his head and glanced at Tang You's back. He suddenly remembered the last time he saw him, how decadent he looked when he divorced his wife and drank to drown his sorrows. It seemed that being busy as an official had not eliminated his sorrow, so he said : "I'll go back to him and explain it in detail."

Meng Changqing nodded.

Aunt Wang Qiong had previously sent people to hunt down Qin Yuehuai, proving that she had recognized his true identity.And now he has entered the official position under the cover of Qi Yan. This lie is a big one. Once it is exposed, it will be a disaster. He should be particularly cautious in his words and deeds. It is better to do less than to do more. After all, it is rare to see an old friend. Just one less risk.

But Tang You is now sensitive and thoughtful, so it would be best for Qin Yuehuai to explain clearly in person.

Qin Yuehuai and Meng Changqing had the same idea.

However, sometimes life is like this, what you want and whether you can do it are completely different.

The next time he saw Tang You would be more than a month later.And the thin thorn in Tang You's throat has become lodged in his heart after many years.

But that's another story.

At this moment, he met Qin Xi, the biological son of the Wang family who had harmed his whole family. The depression and hatred in Qin Yuehuai's heart were unspeakable, and he urged Meng Changqing: "Please tell your uncle to pass on the historical records."

Meng Changqing's cousin Meng Huan was the secretary supervisor. It was Qin Xi Shangfeng, and he was also the one who directly presented the annals to Zhao You.Zhao You didn't make a decision last night to deny the booklet, but it did not prevent the contents of the booklet from being leaked.

Meng Changqing finally found an opportunity to kick him and complained: "My whole family is used by you, you have such a big face!"

Qin Yuehuai sneered coldly: "If you want to help the tiger, I won't stop you."

Meng Changqing was truly speechless.

The good, evil, and justice of this world are within the human heart. If the Meng family really continues to act like the Wang family and the Qin family, the consequences can be imagined.

Even someone like his father, who was previously wavering, had made up his mind, so what reason did he have to go against Qin Qi?
Meng Changqing chased after him, put his hand on Qin Yuehuai's shoulder, and found himself at the bottom of the steps. He said nothing else: "I need your help with something..."

Qin Yuehuai glanced at him sideways, seeing that he was showing his brotherly love to him again, as if he was not the one who just kicked him.

Before Meng Changqing could say why he was asking for help, he said ruthlessly: "No help."

An idea flashed in Meng Changqing's mind, and he turned around and said, "Do you still want Biqiong Liquid?"

With such a big temptation in front of him, he didn't believe that Qin Qi could remain indifferent.

When he finished speaking, Qin Yuehuai really paused. Just when Meng Changqing felt that the fish had taken the bait, he saw the "fish" slip away in a flash, not caring about the "bait": "No."

Meng Changqing's handsome face froze, and he couldn't react for a moment.

*
It was already dusk when Zheng Shilin came out of Zhao Si's house.

The moment he got on his horse, he suddenly thought of the young lady he met at the door of his house this morning, her bright eyes that were nervous about his uncle.

He was not one to hold back when things happened, so he immediately turned the horse's head and galloped towards the young lady's shop.

Shen Yanhan took out the money and came out of the shop, frowned and headed east to Qinghe Alley. As soon as she reached the entrance of the alley, she heard the clatter of horse hooves. She raised her eyes curiously and saw a galloping horse in front of her.

Unexpectedly, the person who came was Zheng Shilin.

"Control—"

Zheng Shilin dismounted and stood upright in front of Shen Yanhan, tall and sassy, ​​and straight to the point: "Ms. Shen, I just came from my uncle's place. Let's talk?"

Shen Yanhan was naturally very interested in talking about Zhao Si, but something was holding him back. Shen Yanhan looked serious: "Whether this will happen or not, I have important matters in hand."

The two of them were familiar with each other, so Zheng Shilin asked directly: "What's the important matter?"

Shen Yanhan glanced at the house not far away, thought for a while, and gave a selective message: "I'm going to raise money to save people."

"Raise money?" Zheng Shilin frowned: "Who to save?"

Shen Yanhan felt restless at this moment, and she was shaking slightly from hunger because she had been without water for most of the day. There were still people waiting for her, and she really didn't want to waste time talking to Zheng Shilin, so she said perfunctorily: "There are just some people. You don't know them." .I am leaving."

After saying that, she walked away.

Zheng Shilin took the horse and took a step forward to catch up with her, and took the initiative: "I will go with you to save people."

Shen Yanhan looked at Zheng Shilin unexpectedly. Seeing that he seemed to be afraid of her rejection, she immediately added: "I'll be fine if I go back."

He really had nothing to do. After being recalled to Lin'an Mansion from Huaihe by Zhao You, he had no important position and was idle all day long.

It's always a good thing to have one more person to help.

Shen Yanhan nodded in agreement, but still remembered his most urgent need, so he scanned Zheng Shilin's body up and down, expecting to ask him: "Do you have any money with you?"

The dignified Prince Dingyuan Hou never had to think about money when he went out, not to mention that his plan today was just to visit the Zhao family.

Zheng Shilin's bright and handsome face showed a look of embarrassment.

Shen Yanhan got the answer from his expression, and couldn't help but said in disappointment: "That's it, let's go."

As the two of them walked forward, a carriage came from a distance. After a while, the carriage stopped behind them and the two gentlemen got out.

One of them stared at the graceful figure walking side by side and spoke in a deep voice: "Isn't Madam Shen here to find me?"

Hearing Qin Yuehuai's voice, Shen Yanhan felt happy, turned around and said to him: "I'm here to find you!"

Qin Yuehuaiben had a cold face, staring at the backs of her and Zheng Shilin, thinking depressedly, this heartless little lady had done everything intimate with him last night, and then turned around to meet another husband. She didn't want to... Hearing her answer him so happily, and when she turned around, there was obvious excitement and expectation on her face.

It was for him alone.

Qin Yuehuai laughed at himself in his heart.

Look, when she smiled, he instantly lost his temper again.

Shen Yanhan regained hope in her heart, walked up to Qin Yuehuai and Meng Changqing, greeted them hastily, then stared at Qin Yuehuai closely and said, "Are you free now? I have something to do."

At this time, she was glad that she had a business identity, and she seemed upright and upright when seeing him as a "guest" in front of Zheng Shilin.

Qin Yuehuai looked down at her, nodded, and said softly: "Yes."

Shen Yanhan immediately said: "Let's talk at your residence?"

Qin Yuehuai responded, glanced at Zheng Shilin who was stunned not far away, nodded to him calmly as a greeting, and left with Shen Yanhan.

Zheng Shilin then took a few steps forward and called Meng Changqing: "Cousin."

Meng Changqing saw his disappointed expression in his eyes and blinked, "Why is my cousin here?"

Zheng Shilin tightened the reins in his hands and said, "I happened to be passing by."

Zheng Mansion was half a city away from here, and he happened to be passing by. Meng Changqing did not expose his panic and asked him: "Will you go back now?"

Zheng Shilin glanced at the beautiful figure that was disappearing, thinking that she had just agreed to help him along, so he hesitated.

Meng Changqing ruthlessly shattered his expectations: "There's no need to wait, Mrs. Shen won't be able to come out for a while."

Upon hearing these words, Zheng Shilin felt like he was struck by lightning.

Previously at Tingfeng Teahouse, Bachelor Qi had confessed his love to Madam Shen, and Meng Lang's words of "I can't help myself" and "I have admired Madam Shen for a long time" were still fresh in his mind. But when he saw the two of them today, it was... Getting along so naturally.

He had a very bad suspicion in his mind, but he pretended not to understand and smiled at Meng Changqing: "How could it be? She just said she needed my help."

It's just trying to force a smile, not to blame.

Meng Changqing said quietly: "Only Qi Yan can help her. To be precise, she only wants Qi Yan to help. Do you believe it?"

Zheng Shilin had no time to hide the darkened look in his eyes and clenched his fists.

Meng Changqing raised his eyebrows, said something and left, no longer talking to Zheng Shilin.

He said what he had to say.

If you keep thinking about it, you can't help him anymore.

He still has someone to meet.

Meng Changqing ordered the coachman to go to Ankang Hall. After getting on the coach, he put the folding fan on the tip of his nose and sniffed, raising the corners of his lips.

There is still her fragrance that looks like medicine but not medicine.
