For the next three days, Di Dongqing, as a competent doctor, stayed by the patient’s side.
Under his care, Master Bo’s symptoms gradually calmed down, and his complexion gradually improved. At first he couldn’t drink a drop of water, but later he was able to swallow porridge and rice. On the third day, he finally woke up from his lethargy.
The first thing he saw was Di Dongqing, who had been infected by the medicine stove for three days, and his body smelled faintly of herbs.He sat up from the bed and said, “Where are you a doctor? Thank you for saving me.”
Di Dongqing also looked at him.
He is over [-] years old, his hair is half white, and because of years of hard work, the wrinkles on his face are heavier than ordinary people, and he is even more haggard from the torment of disease.However, his eyes were extremely clear. He was obviously ill, but he turned his kind eyes to the juniors around him, expressing relief with his eyes.
The minds of the people who had been hanging on for three days were finally let go under his comfort.Qu Ying let out a long sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on the faces of the Bai family brothers.
Di Dongqing had met Lord Bo Hou when she was a child, and she always remembered this kind elder.
However, Lord Bai Hou could no longer recognize his face.
When he was hesitating, Si Yutong suddenly said for him: “This doctor is the only son of Jiang Yun, a genius doctor of the Yushan clan.”
Her voice was not loud, but it startled the whole room.The medicine bowl in Qu Ying’s hand shook violently, and the smiles of the Bai brothers froze on their faces.
Of course they had heard of Jiang Yun’s name, and they remembered Jiang Yun’s identity more clearly – the wife of the sinner Di Xiangcheng.
Jiang Yun’s only son should have died in the fire nine years ago, and he should never have appeared in front of everyone at this moment.
Bai Xiuchuan took a step forward, stood in front of Di Dongqing, and said to Master Baihou: “Father, brother Dongqing is a good man, he also saved me, don’t…don’t…”
He was originally not good at words, but now he was terrified, and he became more and more stumbling when speaking.
Master Bai turned to his son, was silent for a moment, and said, “Since he saved my life, I won’t do anything to him.”
“That’s great.” Bai Xiuchuan stroked his chest, “Then…then…”
Master Bai sighed: “It seems that when I was out, a lot of things happened in the house.”
Bai Yunfeng stood up and said, “Let me tell my father.”
The reason why the prince came to seek refuge, he had already mentioned to his father in the letter, and now he will explain the whole process in detail.Lord Baihou listened patiently all the time, took him to finish the explanation, and then turned to Si Yutong and said, “Your Highness, you must have suffered a lot in these years, and it is really hard for you. Unfortunately, my old bones are useless, and I am rude. Made you laugh.”
Si Yutong shook her head and said, “Uncle Bai, you are my elder, and I should be the one to salute.”
Lord Bai Hou didn’t compete with her, but just looked at her, and asked slowly: “You must not just come to me to seek protection, right?”
Si Yutong was surprised: “How do you know?”
Lord Bo Hou glanced in Di Dongqing’s direction again, and said, “Because you came with him.”
Si Yutong was startled, and then said in a deep voice: “I really didn’t come to rest. I know you are sick, but I have to discuss important matters with you. I’m afraid it will disturb your rest.”
Master Bai Hou slightly nodded at her, and said: “Your Highness doesn’t need to see outsiders, but it’s okay to say.”
Si Yutong took a deep breath and said, “The reason why I went with Di Dongqing is because I know that the person who killed my parents was not General Di.”
Lord Bo Hou was silent for a long time, nodded and said: “Actually, I already knew.”
Si Yutong stared at him with wide eyes, as if she couldn’t believe her ears.
Master Bai continued: “Not only me, there are many people who have doubts about the unsolved case back then, and they were quickly cleared out of the court like a storm. The Holy One is old, and may be blinded by a leaf , Are the officials also blind? No, it’s not that the officials don’t understand. They just don’t want to understand.”
Si Yutong couldn’t hide the astonishment on her face, she was impressed by the sobriety of this elder.
Bai Xiuchuan didn’t have the deep thoughts of his father. When he heard his father’s words, he was overjoyed: “If this is the case, then we can avenge General Di!”
Master Bai Hou shook his head and said, “No.”
“Why not?”
“Let me ask you, can you wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep?”
Bai Xiuchuan was stunned, and was silent for a long time before biting his lip and shaking his head.
Bai Yunfeng agreed from the side: “What my father said is that speaking against General Di is the same as letting Emperor Jian admit his mistakes back then. It’s not easy. Unless the real culprit is found and the world is exposed, otherwise, a sensible person can always pretend Confused. If there is no way to make a final decision, the unsolved case will always be an unsolved case, and clearing up the injustice is just a delusion.”
As soon as the voice fell, the four fell into silence.
What he said was true. The biggest doubt in the unsolved case back then was the way the assassins invaded the East Palace. The Imperial City was no more heavily guarded than other places, and the guards were all elite soldiers. Except for General Di who was invited, who else could cross over with wings? High walls, like entering no man’s land?
A voice sounded from behind everyone: “I know the identity of the real murderer.”
It was Lu Zhengqiu.
The four of them turned their heads together and saw Lu Zhengqiu standing in the room like a shadow, blending into the shadow cast by the wall. It wasn’t until he opened his mouth that the four of them really noticed his existence.
Di Dongqing also looked at him, the calmness and indifference on her face was so extraordinary that the young man’s heart tightened involuntarily.
Bai Yunfeng said: “May I ask who is the real culprit?”
Lu Zhengqiu said: “The Demon Cult.”
Bai Yunfeng paused for a moment, then said: “There are countless people who have guessed this way, but none of them can produce evidence.”
Lu Zhengqiu said: “I have evidence.”
The four of them cast their eyes on him together, and the surprise on their faces deepened.
He continued: “It seems impossible for an assassin to sneak into the Eastern Palace in broad daylight. But it’s just ‘seemingly’. If a little-known technique is used, it may not be impossible.”
Bai Yunfeng frowned and said, “What kind of exercise? Could it be possible to hide?”
He replied: “Based on the martial arts foundation of the Central Plains people, it is naturally impossible, but if you use the power of Youying Yuanshen, you can temporarily eliminate the deeds.”
Bai Yunfeng still shook his head: “How can people disappear out of thin air? This is no longer martial arts, but witchcraft.”
Lu Zhengqiu didn’t answer any more, just lowered his head slightly and his eyes sank.
Di Dongqing was keenly aware of Master’s change, and wanted to shout, but was stopped by the other party’s eyes.
The next moment, in his eyes, in the eyes of everyone, Lu Zhengqiu suddenly disappeared from the corner of the dark room and turned into a cloud of mist.
Everyone thought they were blind.
The scene reflected in their eyes is too ghostly, bizarre and beyond human reason.
The black mist suddenly dispersed in the air, like a speck of dust stuck in the corner of the eye, it disappeared without a trace in an instant.
However, the next moment, Lu Zhengqiu appeared in front of Bai Yunfeng, standing one step away from him, with his palm lightly resting on his shoulder.
Bai Yunfeng exclaimed, and hurriedly backed away, one leg was caught by the foot of the bed, and he fell to the ground in embarrassment.With one hand still hanging in the air, he pointed at Lu Zhengqiu and said, “Just now… just now…”
He was too surprised to say a complete sentence.
Before Lu Zhengqiu could say anything, Qu Ying had drawn his saber out of its sheath.
The blade rested on Lu Zhengqiu’s neck.
Qu Ying stared at him firmly, as if afraid that he would disappear out of thin air again, and asked word by word: “Are you a member of the Demon Cult?”
