Ninety-nine: Marrying a wife should marry a virtuous
Sikong Qingying and Bai Yuanjun were actually friends. They just learned the piano from Bai Yuanjun for a while and were taken advantage of by Bai Yuanjun. Bai Yuanjun insisted that she call her master.
Lu Jiu nodded, with complicated and exciting emotions rolling in his cold eyes: "Master said about immortality... I have something from the Lu family with Senior Sister, and I would like to ask Senior Sister to return the original jade to Zhao."
Lu Jiu accidentally said the word "immortality" and the name he called the Lu family, which shocked Sikong Qingying.
Sikong Qingying will never forget that more than ten years ago, the Lu family, a famous swordsman family in the world, was wiped out overnight because of the book of immortality... Lu Jiu's surname was Lu, and he also said that the things he wanted to get were the first two
The word is "immortality"... Could it be that it is a book of immortality?
No way!!! The Book of Immortality could actually be a jade pendant?
Sikong Qingying resisted the desire to ask about the doubts about the Book of Immortality and asked Lu Jiu to wait for a while before going to find the jade pendant.
I remember that during the Qianlu time, she wanted to use rumors to slander the Yuchi family. She also specifically blamed the Book of Immortality on Yuchi Weiran and asked Shuqi to spread the news that the Book of Immortality was in the Yuchi family... Who knew that the real Book of Immortality was actually
In her own hands?
Soon, Sikong Qingying found the red lacquered wooden box.
Open it, and there is a delicate fan-shaped pendant inside.
The rumored Book of Immortality can make people live forever and stay young forever. Sikong Qingying always thought it would be a martial arts secret book or a prescription, but he never expected that in the end, it would be a jade pendant.
Sikong Qingying looked at the legendary book of immortality for a while, but couldn't see anything special about it, so he put it away again, put it in a box, and took it out.
"Lu...junior brother, this is what you, Senior Bai, put here for me."
Even though Lu Jiu was such a cold-blooded person, he couldn't help but get a little excited at this moment.
He couldn't help but take a step forward, reached out and took the wooden box handed to him by Sikong Qingying. After opening it, he saw the fan-shaped jade pendant lying quietly in the wooden box, and his eyes were filled with tears.
It's moist.
Thirteen years ago, he was just a half-grown child. The famous sword family was slaughtered overnight. He only escaped the disaster because he was naughty and ran away from home early. He sold his life to
In Xuanming Palace, it doesn't matter whether he is cold-blooded or ruthless, or whether he kills people like crazy. He just wants to learn the best martial arts to avenge the Lu family and get back what belongs to the Lu family.
And now, the old palace master of Xuanming Palace has handed over Xuanming Palace to him. With the help of his current power, he has a general understanding of the tragedy of annihilation, but the book of immortality has always been missing.
Fortunately, Bai Yuanjun found him and told him the whereabouts of the Book of Immortality.
After more than ten years, after going round and round, the longevity book that led to the destruction of the Lu family finally returned to Lu Jiu's hands. How could Lu Jiu not be excited?
In the more than ten years after the Lu family was exterminated, his life was supported by only two beliefs: revenge and the Book of Immortality, which shows the importance of the Book of Immortality in his heart.
He closed the box and put it in his arms. Then he raised his head and looked at Sikong Qingying: "Senior Sister Sikong, although you and I were strangers before, Senior Sister Sikong has saved me twice, and now she has saved me from the Lu family again.
The treasure is returned to me. Lu Jiu has nothing to repay for this great kindness. After Lu Jiu's family feud is avenged, Lu Jiu can give his life to Senior Sister Sikong."
This is serious.
Sikong Qingying waved her hands quickly: "I didn't do much to save you last time, mainly because of my elder brother..." Thinking of Yin Ziheng, she immediately felt sad, and she felt extremely uncomfortable in her heart.
But she forced a smile on her face: "And the family treasure of yours was made by Senior Bai. I'm just keeping it safe for him. Junior Brother Lu, if you want to thank me, just thank Senior Bai."
Lu Jiu shook his head: "Master naturally wants to thank you, but Senior Sister Sikong must also thank you. Senior Sister Sikong may not know that the last time in the General's Mansion was not the first time Lu Jiu met Senior Sister Sikong."
"Huh?"
Have they met before?
Lu Jiu explained: "Senior Sister Sikong also knows that Lu Jiu was born in Xuanming Palace, and he was in trouble with swords and fire all day long. Last year, around this time, I took on a mission. Although I succeeded, I also got hit.
The plot was plotted. He was poisoned by Ruanjinsan and poison, and lost all his martial arts. He finally escaped, but was mistaken for a beggar.
I almost died on the streets of the imperial capital. It was Senior Sister Sikong who rescued me and left me money to see a doctor. It was Senior Sister Sikong’s money that enabled me to get to the point where people from Xuanming Palace came to save me. The grace of saving my life.
There was no way I could repay you. Later, Lu Jiu always wanted to thank you, but he never found you again until he was at the General's Mansion..."
In the past, Lu Jiu would definitely not have said so many words or explained so much, but today he got back the Book of Immortality, and Sikong Qingying became insensitive and cold-blooded to him after his family was exterminated.
An extremely special existence. It can be said that this person who saved him twice and helped him once can be called a chance encounter. He is the softest part of his heart today.
"So it's you..." Sikong Qingying just thought about it for a moment and then remembered this matter.
Because it was not long after she fell in love with Captain Chi Weiran at that time, she seemed to be looking for him at the store, and she happened to see Lu Jiu who was being bullied and pitiful. Lu Jiu looked really pitiful at that time, except for those pair of
His cold, indifferent eyes made people feel his pride and unyieldingness. Sikong Qingying saw his eyes accidentally,
She couldn't bear for him to die there. She happened to be dressed in extraordinary clothes, and the Yuchi family's servants followed her. Those people didn't dare to be presumptuous, so they left without any embarrassment. She also thought about taking Lu Jiu back, but the Yuchi family's servants tried their best to stop her, saying that she was a
It was too shameful for a woman to bring a man back, so Sikong Qingying had no choice but to leave all the money he had with Lu Jiu.
I never thought that fate in this world could be so wonderful.
She had never realized before that Lu Jiu was the same person back then. What a coincidence.
"It's me, Senior Sister Sikong. I wonder what you wish for? If you tell me, maybe Lu Jiu can help you."
The power of Xuanming Palace is beyond the imagination of the world. It is not only in the Celestial Dynasty, but also in the other three countries. Lu Jiu said this is not an exaggeration.
However, although Xuanming Palace is good, Lu Jiu still hopes to rebuild a famous sword family.
Sikong Qingying shook his head: "I don't have any wish. If I really have one, it would be to bring someone back to life, but that is definitely impossible..." Sikong Qingying said sadly.
Lu Jiu's eyes moved slightly: "Senior Sister Sikong, please express my condolences."
Sikong Qingying came back to her senses and smiled miserably. Although she had accepted the fact that Yin Ziheng was dead, she could not help but feel sad.
This feeling is really uncomfortable.
She sighed: "If you really want to do something for me, Junior Brother Lu, why not help me find that mysterious doctor who has never been seen before? It would be great if the plague in the imperial capital can be contained."
When Xuanyuan Mingzhao left yesterday, he said he would come back in the evening, but he felt a little unwell after he came back last night. Sikong Qingying was afraid that he had been infected with the plague. You know, Xuanyuan Mingzhao has been traveling between the imperial capital and other courtyards.
Not to mention that she didn't want herself and her unborn child to be infected with the plague, she just said that Xuanyuan Mingzhao was her only support now, and she didn't want anything to happen to Xuanyuan Mingzhao.
Therefore, the only solution for now is to resolve this plague as soon as possible.
It just so happened that Lu Jiu was from the Jianghu, and the miracle doctor was also from the Jianghu, so it should be easier to find him than people from the imperial court like Xuanyuan Mingzhao.
Lu Jiu's overly handsome face stiffened for a moment, and a trace of complicated emotions flashed across his face: "You... want to find a miracle doctor."
After hesitating for a while, he said: "Leave this matter to me. Within three days, the plague in the imperial capital will be contained."
Seeing Sikong Qingying's surprised look no longer sad, Lu Jiu secretly sighed in his heart, as long as he could help Sikong Qingying, even if he bowed to that person, it would be worth it.
It was Xuanyuan Mingzhao's people who brought Lu Jiu to the other courtyard. Xuanyuan Mingzhao naturally knew about Lu Jiu's stay in the other courtyard.
After he learned about this, he immediately ended what he was doing and hurried to the other courtyard... In fact, Xuanyuan Mingzhao himself didn't even know why he did this.
However, by the time Xuanyuan Mingzhao came back, Lu Jiu had already left.
Xuanyuan Mingzhao felt inexplicably unhappy when he saw Sikong Qingying who was in a much brighter mood: "Is that your guest?"
Sikong Qingying was in a good mood and did not argue with him: "He has already left... By the way, Mr. Liu, he said that he can find a miracle doctor, and he also told me that the plague in the imperial capital will be contained within three days."
Xuanyuan Mingzhao was startled.
He really didn't expect that Sikong Qingying came to that person because of the plague... It turned out that Sikong Qingying seemed to blame him for his seizure, but secretly, Sikong Qingying was willing to help him solve the problem. This was
Doesn't it mean that he also has a place in Sikong Qingying's heart?
Xuanyuan Mingzhao decisively misunderstood.
But this is a beautiful misunderstanding.
This beautiful misunderstanding made Xuanyuan Mingzhao's mood clear up in an instant. Xuanyuan Mingzhao's cold and handsome face showed a bit of softness, and even his voice couldn't help but become softer: "Xiaoying, you have your heart."
Sikong Qingying was a little confused, what's the point?
But she didn't want to ask further questions, she just nodded and said nothing.
Xuanyuan Mingzhao was not angry when he saw this. He just remained silent for a moment and then asked: "When will your friend be free? He has done us such a great favor. If I have the chance, I would like to thank him personally."
Sikong Qingying didn't expect Xuanyuan Mingzhao to say that. She was startled and frowned: "This... I don't know, but I can ask him for you."
……………………
Before Lu Jiu left, he left his contact information. It would be easy for Sikong Qingying to find Lu Jiu in the future.
The guards in the Imperial Capital were very strict, but Lu Jiu still had his own way to get in.
Wearing black robes in the night, he looked like a phantom. His figure flashed past so fast that those who saw him thought they were dazzled.
Lu Jiu quickly flew to a guest room in the courtyard and landed on the roof. As soon as he opened the tiles, he heard a slight noise coming from below.
His eyes were complicated and he did not go down immediately.
Although he had not seen the famous miracle doctor below for many years, he also knew how powerful Lu Zicong was.
That is one of the top ten people listed by Xuanming Palace who should not be easily provoked.
After all, who can guarantee that he will not be sick or in pain? Anything can be offended, except the miracle doctor.
Moreover, this miracle doctor is also a willful master who does things based on his mood.
I haven’t seen him for many years. I wonder if he still remembers him?
Lu Jiu's mood, which had been numb for so many years, had some ups and downs.
Finally, he jumped down, stopped in front of the door, and knocked on the door.
The man in the room, who was wearing a green robe and was very elegant and elegant, holding a bixiao in his hand, raised his eyebrows when he heard the knock on the door.
Is this a military first and then a courtesy?
First lift off the roof of his house, and then knock on the door?
It's interesting to have people come.
There have been a lot of people looking for him recently, but I don’t know which one is coming?
A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, Yi Bixiao clapped his palms slightly, a cold light flashed, and the candles in the room were lit.
After adjusting his clothes, he opened the door.
Lu Jiu looked at the man standing by the door. He was wearing a green robe and a tall figure. There was a romantic look between his eyebrows.
Yes, this is the famous jade-faced miracle doctor, Lu Zicong.
I haven't seen him for so many years, so I wonder if the other party will recognize him.
It is undeniable that after opening the door and seeing the person outside, Lu Zicong's mind went blank for a moment, and there was a look of shock and complexity in his glazed eyes.
But he had been in the world for so many years and had seen all kinds of people, so he quickly recovered and hid the complicated look in his eyes.
"Why did this young master visit at night?"
Lu Zicong turned around, not wanting Lu Jiu to see the change in expression on his face. He entered the room and said to Lu Jiu who was still standing by the door: "Whether you want to treat a disease or have other matters, come in and talk."
If other people saw the jade-faced miraculous doctor Lu Zicong treating someone with such courtesy, they would definitely be surprised.
Seeing Lu Zicong's expression of not recognizing him at all, Lu Jiu felt a little blocked. He followed the instructions and entered the door, opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say first.
It means long time no see.
Or do you really not know me?
Or... get to the point?
Everyone has something they care about deep down in their heart, and whenever they encounter something they care about, they will be particularly hesitant and cautious.
Just when Lu Jiu was hesitating.
Lu Zicong turned Bi Xiao in his hand and said calmly: "Could it be that the young master can't speak? Are you here to treat me with aphasia? I'm sorry, I never accept patients who are not challenging."
"no."
Lu Jiu finally spoke.
Lu Zicong's glazed eyes looked at him steadily, obviously waiting for his next words.
Lu Jiu didn't know that Lu Zicong was actually not as indifferent as he seemed.
Lu Zicong looked at him, his thoughts swirling in his heart.
I wonder if this kid knows that he has been following him for a whole day.
Thinking about this kid coming here, do you want to recognize him?
But why, after so many years, this kid has never looked for him, but more than ten years later, he appeared in front of him.
"I... have a request." Lu Jiu said slowly: "I hope you can help the people of the imperial capital and get rid of the plague."
Lu Zicong paused and his face turned cold: "Young Master is so kind-hearted. He would come to me for such a thing."
He now knows where Lu Jiu has been living over the years, and he also knows that Lu Jiu is a person who has long been accustomed to life and death, and is a murderer. How can such a person ask him to save the people of Li?
Is this a joke?
"No...no, I promised a friend."
Lu Zicong frowned slightly, thinking that he had followed this boy a few days ago. This boy had been wandering at the gate of the General's Mansion, looking for Mrs. Sikong of the General's Mansion.
This kid came all the way from Xuanming Palace just to find such a woman with a very bad reputation in the imperial capital?
Now you come to beg him because of that woman's request?
What's even more disgusting is that this kid asked for help from him, but he didn't even acknowledge him.
It's really abominable. In that boy's heart, is his uncle who was kicked out of the house inferior to a woman who is notorious for being lewd, lascivious, and shameless?
Lu Zicong suppressed the anger in his heart and said coldly: "No help."
He simply said without any tact that he had little talent and knowledge and could not solve the plague, and simply said that he could not be saved.
In fact, Lu Zicong was very interested in the new cases that appeared. Part of the reason why he came to the imperial capital was because of the plague here. After several days of research, he had found a way to curb the plague.
However, he didn't want to simply agree to that brat's action.
That brat, if he doesn't recognize him, never think that he will help him in the slightest.
"Little uncle."
Lu Zicong was angry when Lu Jiu suddenly said: "Do you really not know me anymore, little uncle?"
Lu Zicong was stunned by Lu Jiu's call of "little uncle."
This kid...this kid actually screamed.
Call him uncle!
He...don't you blame him?
Do you really want to recognize him as your uncle again?
In an instant, Lu Zicong threw away his previous anger, and the suave appearance on the surface disappeared completely. With a disgusting smile on his face, he stood up suddenly and walked to Lu Jiu: "Xiao Jiujiu, call me
What?"
Hearing the name Xiao Jiujiu, Lu Jiu gritted his teeth and didn't want to talk to Lu Zicong at all, but...when he thought that he still wanted something from Lu Zicong, he had to swallow his anger and said: "Little uncle."
Lu Zicong's glazed eyes were full of smiles, and the joy on his face could not be concealed. He reached out and patted Lu Jiu on the shoulder: "Good boy, you are so tall and strong, not bad."
That warm and enthusiastic look was completely different from the way he pretended not to know Lu Jiu before.
Lu Jiu felt surprised in her heart.
I remember that when my uncle was kicked out of the house, he was still a gentle and elegant scholar. But now, the playful and smiling guy in front of him does not have the same demeanor as the unworldly and elegant Mr. Lu.
He didn't know that Lu Zicong was kicked out of his home back then, and later met the best brother and sister while studying medicine. In the end, he had to become what he is now, moody and can be called a fighter among chameleons.
"Uncle, about the plague..."
As soon as Lu Jiu's words came out of his mouth, he was intercepted by Lu Zicong.
Lu Zicong interrupted him and asked: "You recognize me now without permission, are you not afraid that your parents will die with their eyes open in heaven, or have you forgotten why your uncle was kicked out of the house back then?" When Lu Zicong said this, there was a smile on his face.
He still had a sweet smile, but the smile in his eyes was gone, instead it was as cold as ice.
Lu Jiu's expression suddenly changed, and she felt uncomfortable in her heart.
If he recognized Lu Zicong so rashly, his parents would definitely not agree if they were still alive.
But now, the original famous sword family has long been destroyed and no longer exists. In the entire capital, only he and Lu Zicong are left in the Lu family of their famous sword family.
They are two people who are only related by blood.
So, in the end, he was willing to forget those past events and recognize this little uncle.
"Since those things have passed, don't mention them again. Lu Jiu only knows that now my uncle is Lu Jiu's only relative in this world."
Lu Zicong was silent for a moment, then suppressed the smile on his face: "My only relative?"
His eyes were a little dazed and deep, as if he was thinking of something from many years ago.
Lu Jiu saw a clue from his face. In fact, he didn't believe what happened back then. He didn't believe that his gentle and elegant uncle would do such a thing. However, he was also unwilling to doubt or disbelieve.
Trust your parents.
So, he chose to remain silent. When he was young, he watched his little uncle being kicked out of the house and being scolded. Those in the Lu family warned him to remember the scum Lu Zicong, but so far, he has no feelings for this little uncle.
The most profound impression on my uncle was his gentle smile.
But, it was impossible, he would never see that smile again.
Although it has not been long since Lu Jiu and Lu Zicong met again, Lu Jiu has obviously noticed that Lu Zicong has changed.
After Lu Zicong was silent for a long time, he said in a hoarse voice: "I have always had a clear distinction between grudges and grudges. Since you call me uncle, I will recognize you as my nephew, and I will not let you recognize me as my uncle in vain. Regarding the plague,
You don’t have to worry anymore, I will send the prescription to Prince Shan’s Mansion tomorrow.”
This was the ending that Lu Jiu could guess, because in his childhood memory, his uncle was a very good person. Even if something like that happened later and his uncle was kicked out of the house, it still had no impact.
The impression Lu Zicong had in his mind.
"Thank you, uncle."
After talking about the business, Lu Zicong suddenly became carefree again. He turned Bi Xiao in his hand, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Xiao Jiujiu, do you have anything else to do?"
Lu Jiu shook his head.
Lu Zicong nodded: "But my uncle has something to say... As the saying goes, you should marry a good wife. Even if you are interested in the woman named Sikong in the General's Mansion, you must not fall into it. You don't know her...
She married into the Yuchi family, the richest family in the world, but was shocked when she married into the second family.
The patron saint of the General's Mansion, the sixth son of the Third Married Emperor, Prince Shan, the threshold of the Lu family is too low to marry such a world-famous woman." Such a woman has countless charming hands, and he doesn't want to think about himself
My nephew was ruined by such a disaster.
Lu Jiu's face suddenly turned red: "I didn't...no." He had never thought about marrying Sikong Qingying or anything like that. Now he helped Sikong Qingying just to repay his life-saving grace and to return Sikong Qingying's life.
The Book of Immortality made him happy, so he was willing to come to Lu Zicong for Sikong Qingying.
What he was thinking in his heart was very simple. How could he have such thoughts as marrying Sikong Qingying?
"No? You're not as blushing as you are!" Lu Zicong hated the irony for exposing Lu Jiu.
