Chapter 219 Little Heartless
The group arrived at the Guanzhou government office, but the officials only said that the prefect was not in the office and told them to come back in the afternoon.
Having no other choice, Luo Qing had to lead them to an inn where they could rest.
Luo Qing and his companions always stayed at this inn whenever they came to Guanzhou. The innkeeper recognized them and had someone lead them to the back alley.
Lu Xun led another group into the city and rented three second-class rooms with silver.
As always, men and women live separately.
The remaining room was reserved for the wounded, including Mu Yangxing, Cuizhu, and Zhuge Yue.
Luo Qing left two people at the prefectural office to wait for the prefect to return. After arriving at the inn, he sent two more people out to make purchases.
Yun Zhao was preparing medicine for Yun Xuan when Zhi Xia rushed over.
"Young Miss, Cuizhu from the Prince of Huainan's mansion has woken up!"
Zhi Xia whispered in Yun Zhao's ear.
Yun Zhao paused in his movements and looked up in surprise.
I finally woke up.
Cuizhu's injuries were too severe, and she remained unconscious.
On the contrary, Mu Yangxing was in a daze, woke up several times, and even became friends with Xu Yiyan.
Yun Zhao handed the medicinal herbs to Zhi Chun, told her to watch the fire, and then left with Zhi Xia.
As soon as Yun Zhao entered the room, he saw Mu Yangxing sitting by the green bamboo bed, staring intently at the green bamboo.
"Cousin, what are you doing sitting there?"
When Mu Yangxing turned around and saw her, her face immediately turned red, and she took a few steps back.
"I...I'm a little worried."
"Don't be afraid, I'm here!"
Yun Zhao found his little cousin quite amusing, and walked calmly to the bedside with his hands behind his back.
Cui Zhu had just woken up and turned her head wearily. When she saw her, she managed a weak smile.
"Thank you, little miracle doctor..."
She was severely injured, and it took a lot of effort for her to say each word.
"Sister Cuizhu, don't worry, we can talk about this later. Let me check your health first."
Yun Zhao knelt by the bedside to take Cui Zhu's pulse, her brows furrowed, not daring to relax her grip for even a moment.
"H-how is it?"
Mu Yangxing looked at her with a heavy heart.
"After all, he was seriously injured and didn't get a proper rest during the bumpy journey. He still needs to recuperate properly!"
"This servant...it's alright!"
Cuizhu struggled to get up, but Yunzhao quickly pressed her down.
"Sister Cuizhu, you can't move around right now!"
"Yes, yes, Sister Cuizhu, just listen to, um, listen to your cousin!"
Mu Yangxing managed to utter the words "cousin".
After the death of his former queen, the King of Huainan rarely contacted the Shu region.
Mu Yangxing was afraid that she wouldn't like him, so he didn't even dare to say "cousin".
Yun Zhao grinned and said, "Cousin, don't be afraid, Zhao Zhao won't eat you~ By the way, you're having your fifth acupuncture session today!"
Seeing her adorable smile, Mu Yangxing felt a chill run down his spine.
Every time she laughs like that, it hurts him terribly!
Seeing Mu Yangxing's pale face, Cuizhu was still wondering why the young master was so afraid of the little divine doctor.
Unexpectedly, when Yun Zhao took out the golden needles, they were ultra-thin golden needles as long as the palm of his hand!
"Little miracle doctor, this..."
It's so long, won't it kill someone?!
"Don't be afraid, it'll be your turn soon!"
Yun Zhao smiled and comforted her.
Green Bamboo: ...
Should she remain unconscious?
Seeing Yun Zhao like this, Zhi Xia couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Throughout her exile, whenever Yun Zhao acted like this, it meant he was worried about something and was venting his emotions.
Nothing much has happened in the last two weeks!
Could it be that the young lady is worried because they are almost at the place of exile?
Zhi Xia didn't say much, she just cooperated with her.
After receiving acupuncture, Cuizhu's complexion improved considerably.
She looked at Yun Zhao as if she wanted to say something but hesitated, and in the end remained silent.
"Alright, I'll give you a different prescription. Remember to get plenty of rest!"
Yun Zhao pretended not to see it, packed up the needle case, jumped off the bed and left.
"Young Miss, what changes have been made to this prescription?"
Zhi Qiu was in charge of decocting their medicine and took out their prescriptions, asking them questions.
Yun Zhao shook her head: "Sister Zhi Qiu, later you can make up an excuse to get Sister Zhi Xia to come out."
Then have Sister Zhixia eavesdrop on their conversation outside the door, and then come tell me!
Zhi Qiu was somewhat surprised and quickly nodded.
"But are they hiding something?"
After all, they've been following me around all this time; what if they're some kind of spy?
"Cuizhu was injured protecting her younger cousin. Perhaps there's something she knows."
The wet nurse didn't know, or perhaps she wasn't telling the whole truth.
If they don't say anything later, we should keep an eye on things on the way.
"Okay, Miss, don't worry, Zhi Qiu will tell Zhi Xia and the others about this!"
Although Yun Zhao is young, the four of them, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, still have great faith in her.
Yun Zhao made some changes to the prescription and intended to go to Wei Jingchen, but Luo Hao came instead.
He lowered his voice and said, "Someone from the Li family gambling house is looking for you."
Li Family Gambling House?
Li Dali?
Could there be news so soon?
Yun Zhao followed Luo Hao, only to find two people guarding the door of the main room.
Li Dali moved in?
"Young Master".
Upon seeing her, the gatekeeper immediately bowed respectfully to her.
Yun Zhao glanced at the two men again and realized that he had no recollection of them whatsoever.
"Come in."
Li Dali's voice came from inside the room. The guard pushed open the door, and Yun Zhao went in.
Li Dali sat at the table, leisurely brewing tea.
Yun Zhao glanced around and, seeing that no one else was there, secretly put the powder away.
Her little movement naturally did not escape Li Dali's eyes.
He raised an eyebrow, somewhat displeased: "What, are you afraid I'll hurt you?"
This little girl, he has already severed ties with the King of Yue and given her all his wealth, why is she still so wary of him?
Yun Zhao shook his head.
"No, I'm just wondering why you're looking for me now, uncle."
Besides, I didn't recognize the people at the door, so I was a little wary!
After saying that, she put her index finger in front of her eyes and made a playful gesture.
Li Dali immediately lost his temper and patted the chair affectionately.
"Come on up, I'll brew you a pot of the finest Huzhou purple bamboo shoots!"
Tribute tea?
He actually managed to get his hands on tribute tea!
Yun Zhao quickly sat down on a chair and took a sip of tea.
It is indeed Huzhou purple bamboo shoots.
"You like it? It's yours."
Looking into her bright eyes, Li Dali generously pushed the tea canister towards her.
"This tea is tribute tea."
"I know, it was a gift from a friend, and this is the only jar I received."
Li Dali nodded.
"You're just giving it to me like this?"
"Tea is just for quenching my thirst. I don't understand those things. Take it if you like."
For Li Dali, her life was saved by her, and all she needed was a jar of Huzhou Zisun tea.
"Then I won't be polite~ Thank you, Uncle Dali!"
Yun Zhao happily took the tea canister away and smiled sweetly at him.
Li Dali took a sip of tea, unable to suppress the smile on his lips.
"There are many gambling dens in Lingnan. The two outside are the managers from Guanzhou."
I'll have them come and meet you. You just need to get to know one of them; just tell them what to do next.
Yun Zhao then realized that he had come specifically to explain his connections in Lingnan.
"Uncle Dali, are you getting ready to go back?"
His poison has been mostly neutralized, and with such a large operation as the Li family gambling den, he can't stay in Lingnan forever.
"That's about enough. I followed you mainly to detoxify."
After saying that, he put down his teacup.
"What, you're reluctant to part with Uncle Dali?"
Yun Zhao shrugged.
No, not at all.
Li Dali glared at her.
"You little ingrate, I even brought you good news!"
