Chapter 12: Troubles
Chapter 12 Storm
"You want to be a doctor?" Du Changqing's eyes widened, "Miss Lu, are you kidding me?"
Lu Zong looked at him calmly.
Du Changqing took a sip of tea, and then spoke again after a while: "Miss Lu, the doctors here are not just talking. Since you have inquired about it, you should also have seen that most of the doctors here are elderly men. A young girl..."
Lu Yan picked up the tea bowl in front of him and looked at the broken leaves floating in the tea bowl.
Since ancient times, doctors have become more popular as they get older. Younger doctors are often questioned for not being good enough in medical skills. They always have to wait until their hair turns gray before they can gradually build up their reputation.
Seeing that Lu Zhu remained silent, Du Changqing persuaded her earnestly: "Miss Lu, I have lived in Shengjing since I was a child. To put it bluntly, a beautiful girl like you shouldn't have to suffer much, let alone show up in public. You If my family saw it, they would be so distressed."
Hearing the word "family", Lu Yan's eyes moved slightly.
Du Changqing didn't notice her expression and continued to speak: "Just give me the herbal tea and I'll pay you the money and sell it all on consignment, okay?"
Lu Tong: “Renxin Medical Center is a medical center, not a pharmacy.”
“It’s almost the same as a drug store.”
Lu Zong put down the tea bowl and looked at Du Changqing: "Master Du, do you doubt that I have the ability to practice medicine, and are you afraid that it will cause trouble for your medical clinic?"
As if his secret thoughts were touched, Du Changqing paused.
"If you don't believe me, you can go to the medical clinic to look for symptoms to test me." Lu Yan said: "There is more than one medical clinic in Shengjing. Mr. Du is not willing to do this business, so forget it." She threw it down lightly. After saying this, he stood up and didn't want to talk to Du Changqing any more.
"etc-"
Du Changqing shouted loudly.
Lu Zong turned around and looked at him.
He stared at Lu Huan for a long time, and finally gave up with gritted teeth and said: "Doctor Lu, this is the first time Du has seen a girl like you who has noble aspirations and is dedicated to helping the world."
"I said it first." He said angrily: "You sit alone, I don't care whether others buy it or not."
“You don’t have to worry about it, Mr. Du,” Lu Huo nodded to him: “I will take care of it.”
Now that the matter has been discussed, the next thing will be much easier to handle.
Du Changqing wants to go back first to help Lu Zhen and the others find a place to stay, and Lu Zhen also plans to go back to the inn to pack his luggage. Du Changqing paid for the tea, and the three of them walked side by side in the direction of Lai Yi Inn.
The long street is bustling, with cars and horses constantly coming and going. A few dozen steps further, there is a jewelry store, Baoxianglou. Female relatives often choose jewelry here.
As soon as Lu Zhen and Du Changqing arrived at Baoxiang Downstairs, the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded in front of them. Lu Yan raised his eyes and saw a carriage rushing towards him.
The driver of the carriage did not give way to pedestrians at all, and the horse almost hit Yin Zheng. Lu Zhuo quickly pulled Yin Zheng to save her. Before Yin Zheng could speak, the coachman yelled and cursed: "Where are you from? Don't you have eyes?"
Yin Zheng was upset and was about to say something in defense when Du Changqing grabbed Yin Zheng and whispered, "Don't curse, that's the carriage from the Grand Master's residence."
Hearing this, Lu Zhen felt something in his heart. He turned his head and asked Du Changqing: "The residence of the Grand Master you mentioned is the residence of Grand Master Qi?"
Du Changqing was a little surprised: "Do you also know the reputation of Taishi Mansion?"
Lu Zhen didn't speak, his expression was a little gloomy.
At the other end, the carriage curtain was opened and someone got out of the carriage.
She is a young lady wearing a curtain hat. She is wearing a smoky-colored silk albizia flower fairy skirt that makes her figure extremely light. She is helped out of the carriage by a maid, revealing the exquisite magnolia embroidery on her embroidered shoes.
She walked very carefully, and even though her face was invisible, she still made people feel graceful.
Such a beautiful lady, but the guards around her were tall and fierce. They only shouted loudly to expel the people around her, so that the master could enter Baoxiang Tower unimpeded.
Du Changqing snorted: "These powerful people..." He didn't dare to say any more.
Lu Zhen was looking at the young lady from the Imperial Master's family when he suddenly smelled a very light smell of blood on the tip of his nose. Before any warning could be given, suddenly, from the end of the long street, there was the sound of hooves of soldiers and horses chasing each other, accompanied by screams and shouts all the way. "Everyone, get out of the way! The officers are arresting you!"
“Kill someone—”
"Leave far away!"
The tea stalls of street vendors were overturned along the way, and soldiers and horses rampaged on the streets. Lu Chen secretly thought that something was not right. He subconsciously pulled out the velvet flower from his hair and held it in his palm. He grabbed the silver kite and tried to retreat to the nearby shop. Suddenly, he saw a strong wind in front of him, and a figure swept towards him, accompanied by a strong sound. The smell of blood.
The man didn't even look at Lu Huan, and rushed towards the young lady from the Grand Master's house. He was about to catch the daughter of the Grand Master who was so frightened that her face turned pale. The guard beside her suddenly glanced at Lu Huan. The next moment, Lu Huan He felt his arm being grabbed, and his body was pushed forward violently, pushing him in front of the man in black.
“Girl—” Yin Zheng exclaimed.
There was a moment of silence all around.
The guard saw that someone had been taken as a scapegoat, and without hesitation he took his young lady and retreated into Baoxiang Tower. Lu Zhen felt the tip of a knife pressed against his neck, and someone was strangling his shoulders, trying to escape to the other side of the street.
However, his plan failed.
At the other end of the street, a large number of people had arrived, surrounding this man and Lu Zhuo from front to back.
This man has reached a dilemma and is at the end of his rope.
Lu Zong was held tightly by him, and he turned his head slightly, vaguely seeing the man's profile.
He was a middle-aged man in his forties, his face was covered in blood, and his expression was ferocious and panicked. Lu Zhen felt the opponent's hand holding the tip of the knife tremble slightly. His voice was also trembling. With the madness of terminal desperation, he rushed to the officers and soldiers in front and said: "Get out of the way! Otherwise I will kill her!"
The leader of the officers and soldiers was a man in official uniform, with blue satin soap boots and high cheekbones. He sat on a big horse and spoke condescendingly: "The sinner Lu Dashan, don't fight to the death, or we will be captured quickly!"
When the man named Lu Dashan heard this, he let out a "poof", with a look that seemed to be crying and laughing, and said loudly: "What kind of sinner? Who the **** is a sinner? The army and horses guard the thieves, but let me take the blame and dream!" He held his hand The hand holding the knife tightly said, "Stop talking nonsense, get out of the way quickly, or I will chop her up now!"
The leader of the officers and soldiers narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
The people around him have dispersed and are far away from here. Lu Chen watched helplessly as the officers and soldiers carrying quivers pulled out long arrows and placed them on the bowstrings, and his heart sank.
This change was also noticed by Lu Dashan. His expression became more and more nervous, and he pressed the tip of the knife on Lu Zhu's neck fiercely, and a trace of blood slowly flowed down the jade neck.
Yin Zheng panicked: "Girl!"
"It's useless." Du Changqing grabbed Yin Zheng who was about to move forward, his eyes full of horror and fear, "That's the Soldier and Horse Division patrolling Lei Yuan. This person is greedy for success and never puts the lives of ordinary people in his eyes. .I’m afraid that there will be such a huge battle to pursue that Lu Dashan.”
I'm afraid Lei Yuan will not let Lu Dashan go because of Lu Zhuo's safety.
Lu Zhen also realized this, and his heart gradually began to beat wildly.
Lu Dashan shouted with a trembling voice: "Get out of my way!"
Lei Yuan looked at him with a smile, and waved his hand slightly behind him. Lu Zhuo saw an archer not far away from him slowly pulling his bow and arrow.
She felt a sudden chill in her heart. At this moment, she was held in front of Lu Dashan, like a human shield by Lu Dashan. No matter how skilled the other archer was, an arrow would only shoot through her and Lu Dashan!
She doesn’t want to die here inexplicably!
Thinking of this, Lu Zhuo calmly clenched the velvet flowers in his hands. She had plucked this velvet flower just now downstairs in Baoxiang and had been holding it in her hand.
Lu Dashan focused all his attention on Lei Yuan and his party, and did not pay attention to Lu Zong. After all, she seemed to be just a weak woman with no strength to restrain a chicken.
The archers behind Lei Yuan have already tightened their bows and arrows, and are about to shoot an arrow as soon as Lei Yuan gives the order.
At this moment, Lu Zhuo raised his hand suddenly, and Lu Dashan was caught off guard, and she took two steps back. However, the hand holding her shoulder did not let go.
The next moment, the velvet flower needle in Lu Zhuo's hand viciously stabbed Lu Dashan's left eye!
There was an exclamation from behind.
