The Black Sheep

After a few days, the man's injury gradually stabilized. He picked a time when Huang Youbi and his apprentice were absent, and Shu Changfeng pushed Zhao Wujiu in to visit the patient.

The man was stunned when he saw Zhao Wujiu: "Zhou...His Royal Highness Zhou?"

It is rumored in the middle of Beijing that King Zhou lived in a simple state, and even the empress rarely saw him. Unexpectedly, he appeared in Jiangnan, a rather remote place, which is really surprising.

But thinking of his bizarre encounter, it is not surprising that Zhou Wang can appear here.

He wanted to get up to bow to King Zhou, but was stopped by Zhao Wujiu: "Master Yu is seriously injured, so don't have to be polite." This person turned out to be Yu Ang, the chief official of Yushitai, who was born with a strong bone. The emperor believes in heavy.

Yu Ang was already on his way, almost impossible to save his life. After being seriously injured, he was extremely vigilant about the surrounding environment. He pretended to be dumb under the sign of Bai Shiqi. He did not expect that Feng Yuanzhuan would actually see King Zhou. This killer was decisive, even if he did. Sitting on his legs in a wheelchair, he still has the majesty of the past, and now there are almost always tears: "Weichen is still going to be the unjust soul water ghost at the bottom of the river. I really did not expect to be saved by His Highness. It is so pitiful!"

Now he has lost even his official seal, and he really wants to announce to the public that he is an imperial adult, without even a certificate.

Zhao Wujiu didn't want to take credit for Bai Shiqi's work: "I don't dare to take credit for it. It is Caobang Younger Bai Shiqi who saved you. Recently, she came in to accompany you every day. Master Yu would have known her for a long time."

Yu Ang thought of the quirky young man who deliberately made him pretend to be dumb. Even in adversity he couldn't help but smile, and coughed softly, "Young Master Bai is a cautious person!" He didn't expect Bai Shi at all. Qi is purely intentional to fix him.

"How can Master Yu be chopped and injured and appear in the river?"

Yu Ang thought of the dangerous situation at the time, and felt cold for no reason: "Weichen was ordered to go to Jiangnan to check the salt road. I am afraid that the front foot will be out of Beijing, and there will be a letter on the back foot to convey the news. The official ship I was on entered Lianghuai and encountered several waves. The water pirate, the good hands around him were broken, and in the end even the official ship was scuttled. I was chopped and wounded. I was forced to jump into the river. I didn't expect to escape. What a blessing!"

Shu Changfeng was shocked immediately: "Do they dare?! Really want money but not life!"

Zhao Wujiu chuckled: "What's not to dare to do? Master Yu encounters a water bandit, and he has nothing to do with the Salt Transport Officer at that time. Instead, Yanhe Guardian will be reprimanded. As long as the salt transport agent's fatness can be kept, It's not surprising to kill and overwhelm."

Yu Ang said admiringly: "After the death of the minister, any dirty water can be pushed on the minister, and the charges should be pushed on the water bandits along the way as much as possible. If the government suppresses a few more bandits, it may be reported. If you can get the commendation from Shangfeng, when the DPRK sends someone to investigate the Lianghuai Salt Road, the accounts that should be smoothed have long been smoothed; or you can use rare treasures to buy the next imperial servant."

Zhao Changfeng: "Then why not buy Master Yu?"

Yu Ang smiled bitterly, and Zhao Wujiu explained on behalf of him: "Master Yu has a reputation for being upright. He never accepts bribes. He is bought with gold and silver. Maybe it will become a testimony in court. It is better to cancel the buying from the beginning. He planned to die directly at the hands of water bandits."

"So cruel!" Shu Changfeng murmured.

Suddenly a clear voice came from outside: "Who is cruel?"

The door was pushed open, and Bai Shiqi rushed in with a smiling face, as if bringing in the sunshine in the room. Seeing Yu Ang sitting there, he shook his head: "I know these **** rules will hinder the patient's recovery. A... My lord, it took a lot of effort for Old Man Huang to rescue you. I said that I would stay in bed, so don't waste the medicinal materials that Old Man Huang has collected so hard!"

Seeing that she was rather unceremonious, Yu Ang hurriedly apologized to King Zhou: "Don't blame your Highness, Young Master Bai is straightforward, and he is also worried about his body."

Zhao Wujiu said in his heart: She has done anything rude, can I still find her to settle the account? But Yu Ang defended her, showing that he was an outsider, which made him feel unhappy, and said: "In this case, wait until Master Yu recuperates. If the emperor knows about Master Yu's death, he will have another Send someone to Lianghuai, and see you by the machine when the time comes." Pulling down Bai Shiqi's sleeve, he kept his intimacy: "Seventeen, don't make a fuss in the room, which will affect Master Yu's recovery, so go out and play with me. "

Bai Shiqi jumped up to push his wheelchair. He didn't notice his displeasure. He smiled and complained: "Brother Zhao, go and see Ziheng. He went fishing with me just now, but he didn't expect to fall into the mud. , Rolled into a mud pig, how embarrassed and embarrassed, you should really teach him a lesson, so as not to save him from restlessness every day!"

Zhao Ziheng was originally a Pianpinjia son, who can neither tease nor fish. Going up trees and digging birds into the mountains is the most elegant way to go hunting. He didn’t expect to learn along the way with Bai Shiqi, but now he has fun. Every day I have a lot of fun playing, my body has become stronger, his skin has become darker, and his actions are far from those of Noble Prince Pian Pian, and he is about to become a rags.

He said that he was the little servant who pretended to be Zhao Wujiu, and now he can barely be regarded as half a caterer.

Shu Changfeng helped Yu Ang lie down and tucked his feet for him. Yu Ang grabbed his arm and asked in a low voice, "Lieutenant Shu, this is..." What happened?

It is said that His Royal Highness Zhou was unsmiling and not very close to the important officials in the court. It was the official banquet at the palace toasting officials, but I did not expect to be able to be close to Yan Yan, a young man.

Shu Changfeng inevitably had to cover up for his master: "Young Master Bai is innocent and has no heart in the city, and he has seen him like before..."

Yu Ang thinks about it, ordinary people see him severely wounded, how can they dare to rescue others at will, this young master Bai is chivalrous, His Royal Highness King Zhou likes his old ways, it’s not surprising that the two of them are close together, so he is relieved. A smile: "That's what School Lieutenant Shu said." Who doesn't like simple and straightforward people these days? Especially those who fight with people in the DPRK all day, prefer the simple-minded people.

Outside in the yard, Zhao Ziheng was sitting in mud. Seeing Zhao Wujiu, he had to show off the results in the small wooden barrel in his hand: "Lord Rudder, come and see, the little one has caught two slippery fat eels for you. Body." Xiao Si is getting used to it, and he has recently changed his name drastically, so that Huang Youbi, teacher and apprentice, will not see the clues.

Zhao Wujiu pushed the wheelchair over. When he looked down, there were two fat eels in the small wooden barrel under his feet. They were swimming around at the bottom of the barrel. As soon as he left the comfortable environment, he panicked and ran around, but the barrel The bottom space is so small that they can only swim around each other.

The weather was getting colder, and Zhao Ziheng's clothes were all wet. After sitting for a while, he sneezed twice in succession. He almost sprayed Zhao Wujiu's face. He covered his mouth in fright and confessed his mistake, but he forgot the mud in his hands and covered himself upside down. With a mouthful of silt, he wiped himself into a dirty monkey.

Bai Shiqi laughed disgustingly: "Ziheng, is the mud good?"

How could Zhao Ziheng suffer? He jumped up and chased after her: "It's delicious, don't you know if you taste it?" He chased him to feed Bai Shiqi a mouthful of mud, so that she could also taste the mud.

How could Bai Shiqi sit and wait for death, jump up and ran, and you chased me in the small courtyard, which made a yard joke.

Both of them were juveniles playing with their minds, playing with Wuji. Zhao Wujiu didn't know what he thought of, and looked down at his legs, feeling down.

In view of the extremely slow treatment effect in the first two days, Huang Youbi wanted to try a radical method, knocking on the original wound and reattaching the bone. However, it was very painful for the patient to regenerate the broken bone. He hesitated and told Zhao Wujiu again and again, even more afraid of injury. Increasing the injury, not only the original injury can not be cured, but also may lead to new symptoms.

Both doctors and patients know that this is a risky method, and they have no choice but to make this move.

Zhao Wujiu thought about this for a long time. The two days opened his eyes and closed his eyes were the time to fight right away. He woke up in a cold sweat, and he really couldn't accept that he would be a useless person in a wheelchair for the rest of his life.

Zhao Ziheng and Bai Shiqi’s arrogant laughter resounded throughout the courtyard. Zhao Wujiu suddenly made a decision. When Huang Youbi came back tonight, he made a decision: "Since there is no other way, I will accept the broken bones and continue. Surgery."

Huang Youbi looked solemnly: "Although this is a risky move, it is 50% sure. It is better than hopeless to give it a try. Once you agree with me, go and prepare the soup."

That night, Zhao Wujiu locked himself in the room without eating.

Zhao Ziheng took the eel with great difficulty to help him. Unexpectedly, Zhao Wujiu suffocated himself in the room. He was timid and daring to go in, so he instigated Bai Shiqi: "Cousin has always treated you. Tolerance, should you go?"

The two masters and apprentices Huang Youbi started busy after eating, digging through the piles of accumulated medicinal materials to dispense medicines, and they had no time to pay attention to them.

Bai Shiqi opened the door with the eel congee. The room was dark and the lights were off. Zhao Wujiu sat in front of the window, looking confused, but his tone was very impatient: "Get out!"

"I can't get out with a bowl of porridge, I will sprinkle it on me." Bai Shiqi didn't care about the three-seven-one, opened the fire-folder and ignited the candle in the room, and also set his The wheelchair turned around and was facing the bowl of eel porridge on the table: "Ziheng took a lot of effort to catch it. The food that is not usually available is the most nourishing. Lord Zhao Duo really doesn't want to try it? "

Zhao Wujiu's mouth was bitter and he had no appetite. He stared at the person in front of him, and he didn't know where the thought came out. He suddenly grasped her wrist and said stubbornly: "Seventeen, if it's me. What should I do if I can’t get rid of a wheelchair in my whole life?"

Bai Shiqi heard Zhu Shoumei talk about Huang Youbi's plan. With Zhao Wujiu's power, he could not be cured in Beijing. He had no choice but to come to Jiangnan, so there is little hope of curing his leg disease.

She sat next to him and recalled: "The brothers of the Cao Gang are all on the water to beg for a living. They move and carry on the dock. They do hard work. Sometimes they will fight vigorously when they encounter water bandits. It’s just a matter of life. If the lack of arms or legs loses the labor force, the situation is extremely miserable. However, if I have a little surplus when I was young, my life can be passed. When I was a child, I remembered an uncle who was cut off by a water bandit. The heroic spirit has also been depressed for half a year. But then one day, he opened an iron shop, relying on his arms to make a living. He was originally strong, and his arms became stronger forever. I was not sensible when I was a child. Daddy took me to visit He, also called him Uncle Gibbon."

Zhao Wujiu, the emperor's proud son, is now compared to a rough and impoverished man on Caohe. If she had been a disrespectful offense in the past, now he actually listened to: "Uncle Gibbon?"

"Yeah, he happens to have the surname Yuan, and he really likes this nickname." Bai Shiqifu laughed again: "Don't tell me, the kitchen knife, axe, wok and other things that Uncle Yuan hits are extremely resistant. It’s well-known in the local area. If you have any weapon you want to fight, you can do it as long as you draw it. I saw him last time and I laughed at him when he was young, and he shouldn’t go to the Caohe to ask for life. , You should open a blacksmith shop."

——If a person can make a joke about the past, it means he has come out of the predicament of losing his legs.

Zhao Wujiu sighed with emotion in his heart. He was about to say something, but he was stuffed with a bowl of eel porridge by Bai Shiqi. He was politely criticized: "Master Zhao Ruo The family is rich and everywhere, even if the whole body can't move, who would dare to neglect? I should really take you to see the brothers with broken legs and arms on Caohe. After seeing their lives, you will cherish your own life and not be here. Lamenting how miserable I am."

Zhao Wujiu: "..." What a despicable guy!

"Hurry up and eat while it's hot!" Bai Shiqi urged him to eat, while talking about some interesting things on the Caohe, but the fine products were all things of hardship and joy. For example, after someone was disabled, his wife at home had a roll. Xiaoruan eloped with his lover, not to mention the eel porridge, he couldn't even eat the rice porridge, and occasionally got a bowl of wild vegetable porridge, which he could still share with the beggar at the street.

All kinds of unlucky stories in her mouth were really miserable and funny. Zhao Wujiu took the stories of others and unknowingly poured a bowl of eel porridge into his stomach. She also asked: "You said he was unlucky. Unlucky?"

"It's very unlucky." Zhao Wujiu was hypocritical when he was contrasted by these unlucky ones. On the contrary, he was a little embarrassed. It seemed that it was not a big deal to be unable to stand up for life: "But how do you know so many unlucky things? "

The 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China sighed for the suffering of the young gang leader: "You don’t know that there are always brothers who are disabled in the gang every year. These people don’t know how to frugal, so they eat and drink if they have money. In order to make them a little bit worried, I always organize a group of people to visit the elderly in the help every New Years. The nickname is to send warmth. In fact, it is to let them have a little eye for their future and make more plans for their future, so as not to fight. Don't worry about it, lose money without blinking."

Zhao Wujiu was curious: "Is it effective?"

Bai Shida sighed: "I dare not say the effect, but now I take my brother out of the boat, and some people laugh at me and are cowardly and timid!" It is not easy to keep a safe ship without accidents.
