The Memorabilia of the Detective Case of the Female Doctor Who Traveled Through Time

Chapter 13

"I believe the general is not the murderer." Gu Ruo smiled and said to him.

Du Youning raised his eyebrows: "Why do you believe me?"

Gu Ruo took out the note from his hand, and said calmly, "When I saw the general last night, his expression was calm, and he really didn't seem to have killed someone. And according to the general's personality, if he wanted to kill someone, he would kill him directly, and he wouldn't play tricks like this. Furthermore, the deceased and the murderer should have known each other, and the murderer took so much risk to come outside the yamen to kill, he must have wanted to convey some message. In the end, the general said it, and I believed it."

"You'll believe me when I tell you?" Du Youning's brows were like stars, and he laughed heartily, "Miss Gu has a lot of knowledge, she must have traveled to many places."

Test me again?

Gu Ruo pursed her lips, and shook her head calmly: "Since my little girl can remember, she has been living in Lin'an and never traveled far. As for the travel that adults said," Gu Ruo raised the notes in her hand and said with a smile, "It's just that I have more books. , follow the map to find out.”

"The girl is modest. Coincidentally, Du also wants to read more books here, hoping not to disturb the girl."

"Please, General."

Sunlight broke in through the window, reflecting waves on the ground. Gu Ruo sat in front of the desk, carefully extracting the prescriptions, and soon immersed himself in his own world; In the "General History of Folklore" I read, there is a smile on his face, and his handsome face is gentle. The so-called "beauty is like a fairy in a painting" is applied to him, and it is not at all abrupt.

The two lived together peacefully for more than an hour, when Xiao Wu ran in, he saw his mother and the beautiful general were both in the study room. He was still dancing, but he was afraid that the beautiful general would make fun of him, so he put away that naughty look as soon as he entered the door, and put his hands on his body. Qian Ji walked in, first called "Mother", then secretly glanced at Du Youning, and cautiously called "Master General".

Du Youning smiled at him, raised his hand to beckon Xiao Wu to go, Xiao Wu bit his finger and struggled for a moment, then walked over, looked up at him, his eyes were shining with admiration.Brother Liu is the youngest general in Da Chu, who can command thousands of troops. Most of the boys have military passions, and Xiao Wu admires Du Youning very much.

Du Youning squatted down, his eyes were at the level of Xiao Wu, so that he would not be tired all the time, and asked kindly: "How old is Xiao Wu?"

Xiao Wu counted his fingers carefully, imitating Master Liu's respectful appearance to Xiao Chengfeng and said like a little adult: "Returning to the general, Xiao Wu is a tiger, and he is five years old this year."

Du Youning couldn't help but patted his little head, and said with a smile: "It's good for Xiao Wu to call me Brother Du."

Xiao Wu tilted his head, bit his lips and asked softly, "Does the general like Xiao Wu?"

Although Du Youning didn't know why the child asked this, he still said patiently: "Xiao Wu is very good, Brother Du likes you very much."

"Hey, that's great!" Xiao Wu clapped his hands excitedly, "Xiao Wu also has a brother, and Xiao Wu likes Brother Du too. Brother Du is a manly person, and Xiao Wu will be like Brother Du in the future Such a masculine person!"

"Puchi..." Gu Ruo's first reaction was to laugh. Seeing that the big and the small were looking at him, he forced a smile, cleared his throat and asked Xiao Wu, "Little Wu, do you know what a good man is?" What's the meaning?"

"Xiao Wu knows!" Xiao Wu held his head up and said proudly: "Brother Liu'er said that being manly means manly demeanor, manly aura. Brother Du is so powerful, he must be manly. "

God!Gu Ruo really wanted to ask Xiao Liu'er how he taught the children, fearing that Du Youning would be displeased, Gu Ruo quickly apologized and said, "General, I'm still young for five years, my daughter will definitely teach him well when I go back."

"Hey, it's okay." Du Youning looked as usual, not ashamed, but explained to Xiao Wu, "Good manliness does not mean good manly demeanor, good manliness refers to liking too much, Xiao Wu has to do well Erlang, don't be masculine."

Xiao Wu frowned, his little head was full of muddle: "But brother Liu'er said that a good man is a man..."

Du Youning's expression was slightly stagnant, and then he smiled deeply: "Your Liu'er brother made a mistake, wait until I let him tell you." Gu Ruo looked at Du Youning in surprise, and thought that this person has a good temper, even if he is discussed by his subordinates, he is still calm usual.

That afternoon, Xiao Liu'er was educated privately by the "good-tempered" General Du, and went to Xiao Wu with his hands in his hands and tears in his eyes, and explained miserably what a good man is.

"Young master, the list of Quanzhi's prefectures is here, do we want to check them one by one?"

Xiao Chengfeng took the roster handed over by Xiao Liu'er, and roughly counted it. There were 35 people in total, including those who burn fire and do odd jobs. It would take two days to check.Ever since his cousin said that the death of the magistrate was not easy, Xiao Chengfeng has been thinking about what Lin'an has that deserves his attention.Then I thought about it, the only thing that can cause a big case is salt.

Although Lin'an is small, it is located on the coast where the salt industry is well developed. Lin'an supplies half of the salt used by Dachu.The salt industry is hugely profitable, so it is naturally monopolized by the imperial court, but if someone wants to take advantage of the loopholes to make some private money, hum!

Xiao Chengfeng put down the roster, and smiled lazily: "Liu'er, let's go to the salt field tomorrow, don't make a fuss. If anyone asks, just say, young master, I'm bored and want to go out to listen to music."

"Yes, sir."

It was night, and it was snowing outside again, Gu Ruo coaxed Xiao Wu to sleep, when he heard some noise outside, he sat up and listened carefully.The wind whimpered in the courtyard, and the snow creaked under the footsteps.The man got closer and closer, but for some reason, he stopped in front of Gu Ruo's door.

After the Li Er incident, Gu Ruo developed the habit of putting sticks by the bed.Hearing that the man was still at the door, Gu Ruo held his breath, picked up the stick, tiptoed to the door, and asked softly, "Who?"

The man's breathing became more and more heavy, and he remained silent for a while before he replied in a low voice, "It's me."

"General?" Gu Ruo was speechless, and ran to my door in the middle of the night without sleep, is this trying to scare people?Gu Ruo put down the wooden stick, pulled the latch and opened the door, but there was no one in front of the door.

"Ahem..." Gu Ruo heard Du Youning sitting leaning against the wall, his face as white as snow.

Before she could speak, a strong smell of blood came to her nostrils, Gu Ruo frowned: "You?"

Du Youning held his chest and forced a smile, still handsome, but his voice was a little weak: "I just wanted to sit here and rest, I didn't want to disturb the girl's rest, I'm really sorry..." As he spoke, he struggled to get up, His figure was wobbly and very unstable.

Gu Ruo realized something was wrong and quickly supported him: "You are hurt." It was not a question, but an affirmative tone.

Although Du Youning was in pain, he didn't want to scare the little girl in front of him, so he just covered his chest, shook his head and said, "It's just a small injury, it's nothing serious."

Gu Ruo didn't believe it.His hands were sticky, even though he was wearing black robes with heavy layers of clothes, the blood had already seeped out, so it can be seen that his injuries were not minor.

Gu Ruo closed the door with his hand back, put his arm around his neck, and whispered, "I'll help you to the room."

"It's just a small injury, don't bother the girl..."

"You should save some effort," Gu Ruo interrupted him in a cold voice, glanced at his clothes that were still bleeding, and said coolly, "Just wait a little longer, I can only drag you when you faint dragged you into the house."

Du Youning was stunned for a moment, but she didn't insist anymore, and was half-supported by her back to the room.The major general of the dignified Zhenguo Mansion was "resisted" by a young girl and returned to his room. Looking at her cold face, Du Youning suddenly wanted to laugh for some reason, and he did.Gu Ruobai glanced at him, thinking that this person might have hurt his head, no matter how good his smile is, this is not the right occasion.

Gu Ruo put him on the bed, turned around and walked out, Du Youning couldn't figure out what she was thinking, only thought that the little girl must have returned to her room.Du Youning took out the wound medicine, struggled to untie his clothes, and wanted to apply the medicine by himself, but at this moment, Gu Ruo ran back again.Du Youning looked at her in surprise, thinking that she was naked and hurriedly wrapped her clothes tightly, but accidentally touched the wound, with a painful expression on her face.

In this situation, Gu Ruo felt that the person sitting on the bed was a young man who was bullied by a bully, and he himself was naturally the bully who was going to bully the young man.

"Let me take a look for you." Gu Ruowu sighed to himself, and went forward to pull Du Youning's clothes, but he grabbed his arm. The two were so close that they could feel each other's warm breath.Seeing him looking at him defensively, Gu Ruo glanced at him sideways, pulled his hand away forcefully, looked down at his wound, and said while looking: "You should believe me, after all, these days, people like me who are so nosy There are not many fools who are good people in vain."

You should believe me.

Maybe it was because of the determination in her expression, or maybe it was the inexplicable confidence in her eyebrows, Du Youning suddenly believed her.Looking down at the girl who was busy cleaning her wound, his heart felt peaceful.

Gu Ruo checked and cleaned the wound and said, "The wound is on the left chest, one foot long and half an inch deep, tsk tsk, you're lucky, you didn't cut a large blood vessel, and the incision follows the texture, so it should be easy to recover. But It needs to be sutured, and I haven’t prepared a local anesthetic, but there is a general anesthetic, but I haven’t tried it on anyone, do you want to try it?”

Stitch?Du Youning knew that there was a history of suturing trauma, but he himself had never seen it.After hearing her question, Du Youning asked in confusion: "General anesthetic? But it's used for anesthesia and pain relief?"

"Yeah." Gu Ruo turned around to prepare the suturing equipment, cleaned his hands with wine, "I haven't tried general anesthesia, so there is no guarantee that there will be any accidents, but it should not be a big problem. I have already sterilized the surgical equipment, but the conditions are limited. It is inevitable that there will be problems, and there may be an infection, I told you in advance. It is said that I should sign an informed consent form for surgery with you, but the time is urgent, so let’s deal with it first.”

Du Youning felt confused when she heard what she said, thinking that she would not harm him, he said: "Girl, just do it. As for the anesthetic, I don't need it, I can bear the pain."
