Chapter 184 This person is really unlucky
Not to mention him, even his master Xu Changhe was just a strategist. To put it nicely, he was a strategist, to put it bluntly, he was a lackey who could not pass or was not qualified to take the imperial examination.
He wanted to assist the prince, and once the prince ascended the throne, he would naturally be able to get an official position.
It's all just taking shortcuts and flattering.
Li Wei hurriedly came to the main courtyard with his men. As soon as he entered the house, a tea bowl flew towards him.
He raised his hand to block it with the accessories, and the hot tea in the teacup spilled on the back of his hand. Li Wei ignored the pain and looked up.
Xu Changhe's wife looked at him fiercely, glaring at him angrily: "You still know how to come back? Where have you been all night? I asked you to ask a miracle doctor to treat my master, but you have learned to be lazy."
Li Wei raised his head and looked at Xu Changhe's wife, and said in a cold voice: "Ms. Fan, I am not a servant of the Xu family. Who gave you the confidence to act like this?"
"As a wife, if you care so much about me, why are you huddled in this warm house waiting?"
"It was snowing so hard, and we ran around outside all night to get help, and you're the one who scolded and blamed us? Xu Changhe offended the doctor first, and he didn't even tell us, causing us to starve and freeze outside all night."
Feng was so angry that she was shaking all over. She pointed at Li Wei and the others angrily and said, "Well, what a good commander of the city defense department! When my husband wakes up, I will ask him to punish you for your crime of usurpation."
"Hahaha, okay, I'll wait." The anger that had accumulated in Li Wei's heart completely erupted.
They had been busy for so long, just to invite a miracle doctor to her husband, but not only did they get nothing in return, they were also blamed.
No one will be happy.
"Li Wei!" A slightly majestic voice sounded.
Li Wei's face changed, and then he turned around and bowed to the visitor: "Master Zhang."
Zhang Sheng and his men came over. Not seeing any strangers, he glanced at Feng, whose face was filled with anger and displeasure.
"Has the miracle doctor gone to treat Mr. Xu?" Zhang Sheng asked Li Wei.
Before Li Wei could answer, Feng spoke unhappily: "Cousin, please make a decision for Yan'er. Your subordinate is incompetent. Not only did he fail to invite a miracle doctor, but he also spoke rudely to me."
Zhang Sheng looked at Li Wei and asked, "Why didn't you invite a miracle doctor?"
Li Wei saw Zhang Sheng's questioning tone and quickly replied, "Master Zhang, it's not that I didn't do my job well, but Mr. Xu himself offended the doctor first and humiliated him in public."
"If it were you, sir, would you still be willing to come and rescue people?"
Zhang Sheng fell silent after hearing this. He looked at Feng with a hint of resentment.
Feng looked a little embarrassed, and it was obvious that she also knew about this.
"Yan'er, this is what's wrong with you two. Since you knew that your cousin's husband had offended the miracle doctor, why did you ask my subordinates to invite him over?"
"It was snowing so hard last night, and you..." Zhang Sheng was unhappy, and Feng looked at him pitifully.
Zhang Sheng swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
"He's just a doctor. It's humiliating, but my husband is the third prince's adviser." Feng muttered in dissatisfaction.
Zhang Sheng was furious, and then ordered the servants of the Xu family: "Go and invite Doctor Ji to treat your master."
The butler responded quickly and found a quick servant to go and ask for help.
Zhang Sheng looked at Li Wei and the others. They all looked unhappy. Then he looked at their shoes and boots, which were all wet. He felt a little sorry for them.
He took out five taels of silver from his purse and handed it to Li Wei: "Thank you for your hard work, brothers. Go back and wash up and have a good sleep. This little money is for the tea and water you suffered from the cold last night."
Li Wei took the silver and bowed to express his gratitude: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang."
"Go ahead." Zhang Sheng waved his hand.
Li Wei and his friends didn't stay long and turned around and left Xu's house.
Feng Yan'er stamped her feet in anger: "Cousin, look at the attitudes of your people. It makes me so angry."
"Well, Li Wei and his friends have been running around outside in the snow all night. Even if they weren't invited, you shouldn't have said such harsh words."
Zhang Sheng looked at her with a sullen face.
Feng Yan'er calmed down a little after hearing what Zhang Sheng said.
Then she looked around and saw that there was no one around, so she walked up to Zhang Sheng and leaned into his arms: "Cousin, why don't we take this opportunity to kill Xu Changhe."
"You smell sour and pedantic, and you don't have any skills, but you always act like a master in front of me." Feng Yan'er said dissatisfiedly.
Zhang Sheng hugged her waist and tapped her nose: "He is still useful, so don't touch him for now."
"Okay, cousin, I miss you. He is so weak, and I have missed you for a long time." Feng Yan'er drew circles on his chest with her fingers.
Zhang Sheng laughed, stretched his body and picked her up.
He strode towards the yard next door. Even though everyone here belonged to him now, there was still some guarantee that he wouldn't be seen by others.
Telling Xu Changhe then would only cause more trouble.
Just as the two cousins were making love in the next courtyard, the Xu family's housekeeper also invited Doctor Ji to come to the main courtyard.
"Where are Lord Zhang and the mistress?" Not seeing anyone, the butler asked the servant in the yard.
The servant replied, "The mistress was here just now. Lord Zhang left with Commander Li and the others. I didn't dare to ask what they did."
"Doctor Ji, please come in." The housekeeper made a gesture of invitation to the old doctor.
The old doctor nodded, hunched over, and followed the housekeeper into the house.
The old doctor didn't know what to say when he saw Xu Changhe lying there like a dead man with a bruised face and swollen hands and feet due to fractures.
"Why is he injured so badly?" The old doctor felt Xu Changhe's pulse tremblingly.
The housekeeper sighed and said, "I heard from the guards that my master accidentally stepped on empty air and fell down the stairs. He first broke his leg, and then when he stood up, he fell down because of the slippery snow and broke his hand as well."
The old doctor's cloudy eyes couldn't help but widen a little. Good man, how unlucky this is.
"I'm sorry I can't restore Mr. Xu's leg. It's too badly broken. It doesn't look like he fell. It looks more like he was hit by something heavy or stepped on."
"I can only fix it for him first and see if the bone can grow better."
The housekeeper quickly asked what was needed, and the old doctor told him what was needed.
The housekeeper quickly ordered someone to fetch it, and then the old doctor checked Xu Changhe's arm again, sighing and shaking his head: "Mr. Xu's legs and hands will be lame even if they heal in the future, and he won't be able to lift heavy objects."
"If you can't lift heavy objects, can you still write?" the housekeeper asked anxiously. Their master was a scholar.
If he can't even lift a pen, wouldn't that be the end of him?
The master will surely be furious at that time. The old doctor withdrew his hand and said, "The pen is not a heavy object" while unfolding his acupuncture bag.
