Chapter 626 Enemies Meet

Chapter 626 Enemies meet

After a while, Fu Jiuqu went back to the inner room to change clothes, and saw Xin Yi sitting on the bed, staring at him, his eyes slightly darkened.

"Why don't you sleep?"

"Waiting for you." Xin Yi smiled slightly, her little face was rosy pink in the weak firelight, and she still had a look of being half asleep and half awake.

Fu Jiuqu felt relieved, slowed down the pace of changing clothes, and said warmly:

"It's getting late, you should go to bed quickly."

Xin Yi vaguely listened to the conversation between him and Cheng Cang outside just now and said, "Can't we deal with it at dawn tomorrow? We have to go at night?"

Fu Jiuqu didn't look at her, and said calmly: "I can't wait for tomorrow. Cao Yi is injured. He is currently at the posthouse outside the city. The imperial envoy had an accident in Yangzhou. How can I, a magistrate of the state, sleep peacefully?"

Xin Yi asked softly: "Do you want me to go with you?"

She was a doctor, and her trauma department was far better than Zhou Daozi's. She just asked the question out of a doctor's heart. As expected, Fu Jiuqu refused.

"I have sent Cheng Cang to pick up Lao Zhou. Please rest for now. After Lao Zhou has seen the injury, if the goddess doctor needs to take action, it will not be too late to ask you again."

Cao Yi looked at him with raised eyebrows, and raised the corners of his lips with a chuckle.

"Prince, I have been waiting for you for a long time..."

At the entrance of the post house, under two dim street lights, was the postmaster who was waiting anxiously. Seeing Fu Jiuqu approaching, the postmaster breathed a sigh of relief and bowed with his hands.

"We haven't seen each other for a while, and Chonglou and I have become more and more estranged."

"The doctor is here, the doctor is here."

Two people look at me and I look at you, and there seems to be an undercurrent surging between their eyes.

The stagnant atmosphere in the room suddenly relaxed. Fu Jiuqu glanced at Cao Yi and sat calmly.

He was dressed in a snow-white coat, smiling slightly, and still looked like a gentle and elegant noble man.

"The Prince of Guangling County has arrived. The Prince of Guangling County has arrived, please send the message quickly..."

Fu Jiuqu glanced at him, reached the door, raised his hands, and said loudly:

Xin Yi nodded softly, then lay down slowly and pulled the quilt up to his neck, leaving only his head exposed. He stared at Fu Jiuqu with his eyes wide open, biting his lower lip without saying a word.

"What's wrong?"

Before Fu Jiuqu arrived, Cao Yi's wounds had been treated. At this moment, his upper body was lying on the bedside, with a quilt around his waist and covering his injured leg. His body still felt a little cold.

A face as white as a piece of paper, with slightly purple lips.

Fu Jiuqu's expression did not change: "The imperial envoy has come with Shang Fang's sword. I dare not be rude."

The imperial envoy went to the capital on behalf of the emperor to handle major events, and his status was self-evident. If the imperial envoy really died outside, local officials would be closely involved.

"It's been drugged." Cao Yi saw Fu Jiuqu's brows furrowed, as if he was afraid that he would be worried, and smiled with a white face, "It didn't work. It actually hurt a few thieves... It's a joke for you."

Fu Jiuqu bowed, lifted up the quilt, and immediately pulled down his face.

Cao Yi:......

"You can't die, but you can move your legs, right?"

Zhou Daozi frowned and said, "Master Cao, it is because of his good fortune that he can survive. The knife wound penetrated deep into the aorta. If he had not received first aid properly, he would have died at this time."

"Zhou Daozi will be here soon." Fu Jiuqu looked at him calmly and pressed on the bleeding leg, "Can you still use it?"

After Fu Jiuqu changed his clothes and turned around, he couldn't help but laugh when he saw how virtuous she was.

There was still blood seeping out from the wound on his leg.

"There's so much blood inside, I'm scared to see you..."

"Come soon, I walk fast. They can't keep up." Fu Jiuqu replied casually, flicking his cloak and striding inside, "Where is the imperial envoy?"

"Lead the way."

Fu Jiuqu gave a faint hum, but no emotion could be heard.

Cao Yi looked at his solemn look and said, "If you have anything to say, Mr. Zhou, just say it."

Fu Jiuqu saw that his face was as white as a dead person, he half-squinted his eyes and groaned.

Fu Jiuqu turned over and dismounted. A junior official had already come forward and took the reins and left. Yi Cheng looked at the official road behind him and said, "Where is the doctor? Isn't he here?"

The grain, fodder and military supplies that the Transport Department escorted to the camp in Yangzhou were planned and ambushed in the middle of the night, which was obviously premeditated. It is said that Gao Minglou and Ge Yong's party have been brought to justice, who in Yangzhou is so bold?

"Don't die in Yangzhou. I can't bear the crime."

"Where is the injury?"

"Fu Jiuqu, the magistrate of Yangzhou, asks to see the imperial envoy."

Fu Jiuqu glanced at him and thought inexplicably that if Eleven saw him now, he would probably feel distressed again.

Xin Yi shook his head, "Someone is jealous and I don't dare to speak."

Fortunately, Yi Cheng ran over again wiping his sweat to report.

Cao Yi raised his hand: "Please come quickly."

Cao Yi sighed quietly, "Forgive me. Zheng Liu, show me your seat to Prince Guangling."

Cao Yi's handsome face was slightly pale, and his eyebrows were slightly frowned.

"hiss!"

"Master Cao, this injury is not good..."

Zhou Daozi untied the gauze bandage on Cao Yi's leg and his expression immediately changed.

Fu Jiuqu chuckled, touched her face, put down the gauze curtain with his backhand, and strode away.

"Chonglou is here, just come in. Why are you so polite to me? Please come in quickly!"

Fu Jiuqu: "I dare not."

After a pause, the old man said again: "If I am not mistaken, Master Cao uses the styptic powder and wound medicine patch from Xinyi Pharmacy, right?"

Yi Cheng was a small man, and he trotted to keep up with him, speaking carefully.

Cao Yi pursed his lips and motioned for him to look, "On the leg."

There was a slight cough in the room, and with a little smile, it was Cao Yi Wenya who sighed helplessly.

Xin Yi couldn't sleep for a long time with this question in his mind.

Cao Yi's trip to Beijing was very low-key this time, without any ostentation. He only brought a dozen people with him. Except for the injured ones, they were all standing outside his house at the moment, waiting for danger and looking around vigilantly.

Fu Jiuqu thanked him, passed the two rows of cold guards, walked in slowly, and saluted again.

If the imperial envoy died in the post house, he would lose his official position at worst, or die at worst. At this time, the postmaster felt that the black gauze hat on his head was extremely heavy, and he was sweating.

Fu Jiuqu sat down on the stool next to Cao Yi's bed and looked at him seriously.

Cao Yi was startled and smiled weakly, "You are still so unwilling to forgive me. You must not feel comfortable if you mock me without holding a gun or a stick."

Accompanied by Cheng Cang, Zhou Daozi trotted in, bowed and then inspected Cao Yi's injury. Cheng Cang put the medicine box on the table and stood in front of Fu Jiuqu without saying a word.

Not far behind.

Before Yi Cheng could go far, he raised his voice early.

Fu Jiuqu was driving fast in the night, with this in mind.

Cao Yi glanced at Fu Jiuqu and smiled slightly awkwardly, "Mr. Zhou has good eyesight. The Xinyi family's healing medicine is famous in Bianjing. Cao often walks in the camp and always carries some with him."

He didn't have to explain so much originally, but maybe he was afraid that Fu Jiuqu would misunderstand, or maybe he felt guilty. Not only did he talk a lot, but he also didn't speak smoothly, which made the atmosphere lively.

However, Zhou Daozi, who was fond of medicine, did not fully understand the turmoil between the two men. After examining the wound with a frown, he changed the medicine and stood up to salute Cao Yi.

"I can only temporarily stop Mr. Cao's bleeding, but the meridians are damaged and the injury is serious. It may be difficult to heal. Mr. Cao is also asked to go to the Ninety-One Pharmacy immediately to clean the wound and get stitches."
