336. Yi Hong invites someone
In the afternoon, Lin Xi did not see Shen Chen, but first met Yi Hong who was returning to Yi Mansion.
At that time, she and Du BuYu had just changed Qian Renjie's medicine. Du BuYu couldn't help but asked Lin Xi worriedly: "Sister-in-law, why is Brother Qian still not awake yet? Is there anything else?"
Lin Xi said: "He was already exhausted, and now he is just falling asleep. It's okay if he doesn't wake up. It saves him from moving around. Lying down will be good for his wound recovery."
Just after he finished speaking, officers and soldiers came outside to report that Yi Hong was here.
Lin Xi and Du couldn't help hearing it and went out to look. They happened to see Yi Hong approaching the yard, talking to his confidants who were following him.
Seeing the two of them from the corner of his eye, Yi Hong stopped talking.
This was the first time Lin Xi officially met Yi Hong himself.
To be honest, it was nothing like what she had imagined. Yi Hong himself was somewhat elegant and easy-going like a Qing official, but it was just a bit hard to see through.
Soon, Yi Hong arrived in front of them. Yi Hong looked at Lin Xi and said warmly: "So you are Shen Chen's wife, which is different from what I thought."
Lin Xi glanced at Du Buyou subconsciously.
Seeing that Du Bu couldn't help but shook his head at her to show that it was okay, she said: "Master Yi has a different idea than I do. I wonder why Master Yi is here? But the government is short of manpower, do you need help from Du Bi?"
Yi Hong said: "Why don't we sit down and talk."
"Of course. But there are patients inside, so let's talk outside in the courtyard." Lin Xi said.
Yi Hong nodded, and the three of them went to sit down at the stone table outside. Someone immediately served a pot of hot tea and snacks.
Yi Hong said: "Although the people in the mansion left in a hurry, they didn't take many things with them. This is the white tea that the Holy Father rewarded at the beginning of spring last year. Mrs. Shen might as well try it."
Lin Xi said: "I don't like drinking tea by nature, I'm afraid it will be a waste of Master Yi's kindness."
Yi Hong raised his eyebrows slightly, "Mrs. Shen seems to be quite critical of me?"
Lin Xi said bluntly: "It doesn't seem to be, it is."
Yi Hong: "...Mrs. Shen is quite straightforward."
"Yes, Mr. Yi is not so direct." Lin Xi said in a very calm tone, "I believe Mr. Yi also knows that your young master and my son study in the same private school, and our relationship is okay. I think I am good to Huaijin, and Huaijin please me I agreed to come to treat his grandmother. But Master Yi used me to force my husband-in-law to stay and work. Isn't that what a gentleman does?"
Yi Hong was not surprised and said: "The emperor's order is in my hands, I can't help myself."
Lin Xi wanted to roll his eyes: "As long as people think about it, there will always be rhetoric, but there is not much credibility. Now that things have happened, there is no point in talking about it. Master Yi, just speak up if you want me to avoid it. If you need me to avoid it, I can leave first. .”
Du couldn't help but look at Lin Xi and then at Yi Hong, with some doubts in his eyes.
Yi Hong looked at Lin Xi intently, picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then said: "I have something to do, but I am not looking for Mr. Du. He can't help."
Lin Xi thought about it for a moment and understood.
"People?"
"Exactly."
Yi Hong put down his tea cup, his expression was very sincere. He said: "I have already experienced Mrs. Shen's medical skills. Besides, everyone has witnessed Mrs. Shen's ability to cure plague. Now there are a large number of people leaving the isolation camp. People, the epidemic situation is not optimistic. Please give Mrs. Shen a helping hand."
Lin Xi said expressionlessly: "Master Yi, has anyone ever told you that you are not very good at pretending? I don't see how much you want to invite me over."
Yi Hong paused slightly, "Mrs. Shen and General Shen are indeed a couple. But the people really need Mrs. Shen. I heard that Mrs. Shen was not willing to go, so I personally came to invite her to show my sincerity."
Lin Xi pointed at his face: "Did you see the scab on it? This was done by the people in the isolation camp last night. That person was from Chu. He hated the Qin people so much that he came to retaliate against me. I was almost killed They were trampled to death. In the critical moment, no one thought that I had saved them."
Yi Hong said: "I didn't expect there were Chu people in the isolation camp. This is the government's negligence. I apologize on my behalf..."
"No, I can't bear your high position and authority, Mr. Yi. There is also Dr. Lin. If he is willing to help, it is your destiny. If he is not willing, then you just let nature take its course and resign yourself to fate."
After Lin Xi finished speaking, he was about to get up and go back. Du couldn't help but follow after seeing this.
Yi Hong's eyes fell on Lin Xi and said: "Mr. Lin has disappeared and cannot be found. If Mrs. Shen is willing to go at this time, the people will be grateful to you. The people's support seems to be quite useful to General Shen. "
Lin Xi suddenly stopped and couldn't walk anymore.
It had to be said that Yi Hong's words hit her hardest.
If it can win the hearts and minds of the people, it should play a very big role in overturning Shen Chen's case in the future...
"unnecessary."
A familiar cold voice suddenly sounded.
Lin Xi and Du couldn't help but look back and saw Shen Chen appearing at the entrance of the courtyard, striding towards them, with Song Lingjun beside him.
Lin Xi's eyes lit up: "Shen Chen, are you done?"
Shen Chen looked like he hadn't rested, with black and blue under his eyes and a tired look on his brows. This made him look even more scary when his face was expressionless, and the aura around him was extremely oppressive.
Arriving at Lin Xi's side, Shen Chen held Lin Xi's hand and looked at Yi Hong coldly.
"I will protect the people in your city for you, but your people will suffer for my wife. If so, how can you have the nerve to invite her?"
Yi Hong stood up and said calmly: "That was an accident. Your wife is now the best doctor in the city, and the people need her."
"My wife doesn't need it," Shen Chen said, "That person is gone, but there are still many things waiting for you to deal with in this city, so I won't see you off until you leave."
Yi Hong raised his eyebrows and said, "Shen Chen, this seems to be my mansion."
Lin Xi immediately said: "Then let's go. Shen Chen, it just so happens that it's convenient for us to go somewhere else. We'll leave after you finish your work."
Just when Shen Chen was about to speak, Yi Hong quickly said: "I still think of something, you can do it yourself."
Shen Chen looked at Yi Hong expressionlessly. After he left, he looked at Lin Xi and his expression softened: "Let's continue living here. It's not convenient for Qian Renjie to move. I will be busy here in the day after tomorrow. By then Let’s go home.”
Lin Xi nodded repeatedly; "That's great! Let's go back to Hai County to pick up the children first."
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Lingjun who followed him smiled bitterly and said, "You two, maybe you saw that Song is still here."
Lin Xi looked at him when he heard the sound, remembering what he knew before, and immediately threw away Shen Chen's hand. In Shen Chen's doubtful eyes, he said in a strange way: "Of course Lieutenant Song cannot be ignored. I am the one who is ignored, right?" ?How well you and Shen Chen cooperated. Both parties hid everything from me. I didn't find anything, and yet I foolishly believed everything."
Shen Chen: "?"
Song Lingjun: "??"
After realizing it, Shen Chen looked at Du Buyou.
Du couldn't help but retreat in embarrassment, enough to tell Shen Chen everything.
