"Save people to the end, send Buddha to the west." The doctor said this without any pain in his waist.
Zhao Xiu smiled at him, "Then I will give these two to you. Doctors are like parents, and I hope you will have two more sons."
The doctor nearly knocked over the medicine bowl, then looked at him warily, "Are you trying to avoid paying the consultation fee?"
Zhao Xiu rolled her eyes in annoyance.
After bandaging the two people, the doctor immediately asked Zhao Xiu to pay the bill and refused to let the two stay in the clinic for recuperation.
Zhao Xiu had no choice but to take him back to the inn while cursing his bad luck.
As soon as they left the clinic, they heard the sound of horse hooves on the street. Zhao Xiu had good eyesight and saw the leader Lou Yunchun from afar.
Lou Yunchun and others were coming towards the clinic, and Zhao Xiu quickly asked his followers to carry two human sticks to avoid them. The followers were about to greet them, but Zhao Xiu stopped them with a look.
Then he gestured to his followers, asking them to take the two men and slip away. He fell behind and pointed to Lou Yunchun's direction before following.
As soon as Lou Yunchun and others arrived, the clinic was immediately blocked.
Seeing that they were all armed, the doctor felt a little nervous and approached them with trepidation. When he learned that they were there to treat injuries and not to cause trouble, he felt relieved and asked all the disciples in the academy to help receive and treat them.
In the battle of Wulan Bridge, Lou Yunchun suffered new wounds on his back and shoulders. Fortunately, the wounds were not deep and not fatal.
But this still caused him a lot of suffering. He lay in Ulan Pass for three days before he got up from the bed. Now he is only holding on by willpower.
The bumpy ride from Ulan Pass had caused everyone to suffer varying degrees of injuries, so they rushed to the clinic for treatment immediately after entering the city.
He didn't expect to meet Zhao Xiu here. It seemed that she was waiting for him here.
The doctor examined everyone's wounds and murmured, "Another wound from war! Is this world going to be in chaos?"
Lou Yunchun asked, "Why do you say that, doctor?"
The doctor was stunned, thinking that this man had quite good ears. Then he sighed, "I just treated two patients. They also had serious knife wounds. They said they encountered robbers on the road and were hacked like this. One of them had not only knife wounds but also drowned. It's hard to say whether he can survive, so I sighed."
Knife wound, drowning. Lou Yunchun's expression changed slightly, and after the wound was treated, he left the others to continue the treatment and took Lao Duan with him to the direction Zhao Xiu pointed.
At the Wuquan Inn, Zhao Xiu placed the Turkic man and the whistleblower in the same room. After placing the two on the couch, Zhao Xiu dismissed the others, leaving only Bangchui Mei Er.
He glanced at the Turkic man and instructed Mei Er, "Go to the clinic and find out why Lou Yunchun is here. If you find anything unusual, we must leave immediately to prevent him from noticing."
Mei Er understood what he meant and played along, saying, "Okay, I'll go right away."
"Be careful not to reveal your tracks, or we'll be finished."
"That's for sure."
As soon as Mei Er left, Zhao Xiu paced around the room, making the Turkic man dizzy.
"Can't you just go back to your room?"
Zhao Xiu stamped her feet vigorously twice. "I paid for the rent, I can go wherever I want. If you keep nagging me, I'll throw you out!"
Seeing his anxious expression, the Turks were a little surprised. Thinking that something was wrong with Zhao Xiu after he ran into that group of people after leaving the clinic, they tentatively asked, "Who were those people just now? Why are you so afraid of them?"
Zhao Xiu said stubbornly, "Who's afraid of him?"
The Turks pointed out, "If you are not afraid of him, why are you hiding?"
Zhao Xiu glared at him for a long while, then dejectedly sat down at a nearby table, poured himself a glass of water, and after drinking it, he said with a bit of resentment: "Who wouldn't hide when seeing this plague god?"
"Who is he?"
"Lou Yunchun, Junior Minister of the Dali Temple in Kyoto."
"Lou Yunchun...Lou Yunchun!" The Turkic man stood up suddenly but fell down again because he was tied up with bandages.
Not only him, but even the whistleblower next to him trembled slightly.
No wonder he felt the name sounded familiar when he heard it just now. It turned out to be him!
Seeing this, Zhao Xiu asked, "Why? Do you know him?"
Then he nodded and said to himself: "You have contacts in the capital, so it's not surprising that you know him."
The Turkic man did not answer, but asked: "Why are you hiding from him?"
Zhao Xiu didn't answer immediately, but asked, "Since you know him, shouldn't you ask him what he's doing here? Or do you already know why he's here?"
The Turkic man choked and remained silent for a long time.
Zhao Xiu put down her teacup and walked over to the bed, saying to him, "It's already this late, let's stop guessing each other. We're all in this together, so why not be frank and honest and avoid getting in trouble?"
Seeing that he seemed to be hesitating, Zhao Xiu continued to tempt him, "You Turks are associated with the nobles of the capital and Beiting, all because of your ambitions for the land beneath your feet. Prince Ying is after the throne, the nobles of the capital seek eternal privileges, and Guo Yuanzhen of Beiting wants to break away from the control of the Great Sheng and become a king."
Seeing the Turks staring at him in surprise, Zhao Xiu continued, "But now, the Turks have been divided by the Great Sheng, the Ying King's power has been reduced, the nobles have been deprived of power, and Guo Yuanzhen is constrained by the Anxi and Hexi prefectures. You can't achieve your goals on your own, so the only option is to collude... uh, cooperate. Am I right?"
The Turks were filled with shock. Why did this person know so much?
He asked cautiously, "What about you? Who are you? What do you want?"
Zhao Xiu sighed, "Since you're being frank, I'll show some sincerity and reveal my true identity to you."
He pulled out the jade tiger from his bosom and handed it to the Turkic man. "I am the secret envoy sent by the Ying King to Beiting, Zhao Xiu. This jade tiger is a token of trust given by the Ying King himself."
