This shop has been open in the West Market for some years. The tea customers are all nearby neighbors and old neighbors. They drink water in the morning and water in the afternoon.
This is the life that many Luojing people yearn for most.
It's freezing cold, and outdoor production has almost completely stopped. In this long winter, what else can you do except find something to do to pass the time?
Therefore, the business of teahouses and bathhouses in Luojing is very good. If you want to enjoy higher-end services, go to some high-end guild halls during the day, and go to Goulan Courtyard in the evening to listen to operas and music. It is a good place to go.
Storytelling is also a very good profession.
Many failed students, who are not good at writing or martial arts, simply find a teahouse to make up stories and tell stories. As long as their eloquence is good and they can stir up the atmosphere, then it is not a big problem to support a family in Luojing, and it is even possible.
It's moisturizing.
There are also those storytellers and entertainers who like to travel around. Among them, some may work for Nanya, or even be Nanya's spies.
The identities and information of these people are top secret and cannot be accessed unless they are of a certain level or involve certain requirements.
Qingyi is also a celebrity in Luojing. As the most beautiful woman in Nanya, her reputation is also known because she often has to deal with some cases.
Therefore, her identity is almost transparent, so unless she changes her face and identity in this life, she will have no chance to become a latent spy.
"Lord Qingyi."
"Well, are the guests from the elegant room at Kun No. 3 upstairs here?" Qingyi nodded slightly. She walked in front and asked the teahouse owner who was welcoming her.
"That's your customer?" The shopkeeper said in surprise, but fortunately he didn't offend him by being too rude.
"Well, after we go up, don't let anyone in again." Qingyi ordered, and she and Luo Xing went upstairs one after the other.
In the elegant room of Kun No. 3, Xue Qingqing was waiting a little anxiously. She originally planned to go to Mengyi, but suddenly received a mysterious request for an appointment. She had to temporarily change her schedule and come to Xingyuan Teahouse first.
But just in case, she still took Xue Haitang with her and arranged it downstairs. Anyway, as long as something happened, she could come up with just a greeting.
Luo Jing was very uneasy and she had to be cautious.
The appointed time was coming soon, and she had already thought about it. As soon as the time came and no one arrived, she would leave as soon as possible. There was no need for her to spend time with someone who was not punctual.
Fortunately, Luo Xing and Qingyi arrived before the appointed time.
Hearing the knock on the door, Xue Qingqing put down the tea cup in her hand: "Please come in."
This time, Luo Xing opened the door and walked in first. He was the one who wanted to see Xue Qingqing today. Qingyi only came with him, just in case.
At first glance, Luo Xing's eyes lit up when he saw Xue Qingqing, who was wearing Jingzhou's regional costume. She really looked like Xue Shangxiang, especially her eyes and lips, which were carved from the same mold.
"Junior Luo Xing, I have met Aunt Xue."
"You call me Aunt Xue?"
No longer recognized.
"Yes, you are my elder, so naturally I have to call you that." Luo Xing hurriedly explained, "My tutor is Mengyi, and Aunt Xue should know you."
"Are you Meng Yi's disciple?"
It is wrong to say goodbye without saying goodbye, but since you have made an appointment, it is too much to not come.
Where do you put me?
"yes."
"You asked me to meet today. Where is your master? Why didn't he come?" Xue Qingqing asked with a somewhat unhappy expression.
"The tutor can't come."
"Why, is he afraid of not seeing me?" Anger gradually grew on Xue Qingqing's face.
"That's not the case. Firstly, today's meeting was actually with Aunt Xue whom I met in the name of my master. The master didn't know about it. Secondly, his current whereabouts are being watched by people from Yaowang Valley. If he comes
Seeing you, Yaowang Valley will know about the secret meeting between you two." Luo Xing explained.
Xue Qingqing's face softened slightly: "You are a very bold disciple, and you actually dare to make your own decisions behind Master's back?"
"Master, there are some things that are inconvenient to do and some things that are inconvenient to say, so it is natural for the disciples to do it for you, what do you think?" Luo Xing replied quite frankly.
"Tell me, why did you ask me to meet?" Xue Qingqing glanced at Luo Xing with complicated eyes. She was a little surprised by Meng Yi's apprentice.
"Aunt Xue, Miss Xue is fine. She is fine now."
"What, where is Xiang'er?" Xue Qingqing heard this. As a mother, she couldn't sit still for a moment and stood up to ask.
"I can take you there, but I must make sure there is no Yaowang Valley tail behind you. We don't want Yaowang Valley to know where Miss Xue is." Luo Xing said directly.
"Boy, do you believe it or not, I will arrest you right now and go to see your master Meng Yi?"
"You can try." Luo Xing said without any dodge, neither humble nor overbearing.
Xue Qingqing's second-grade martial arts cultivation was revealed, but as soon as she was exposed, she was suppressed by the pressure of Qingyi's first-grade grand master.
That's just the blink of an eye.
Xue Haitang downstairs also caught a hint of Xue Qingqing's aura upstairs for a moment, followed by a wisp of pressure from the Grand Master. She was startled and hurriedly jumped to the second floor and went straight to where Xue Qingqing was.
Come to the elegant room.
Almost breaking in.
"Miss, are you okay..." Xue Haitang was stunned when he saw that the three people in the room showed no signs of taking action.
"Aunt Tang, I'm fine, I'm just testing them." Xue Qingqing's face calmed down.
"If you have something to do, please call me. I'm right outside the door." Xue Haitang was also sensible. Knowing that they would have something to talk about next, it was not appropriate for her to stay, so she took the initiative to close the door and exit.
"This girl is very good at cultivation, I'm disrespectful." Xue Qingqing nodded slightly to Qingyi. She is a doctor. How could she not see that Qingyi is not very old, around thirty at most, and is already a first-level grand master?
This person is like a genius in all major holy places.
"Nanya Qingyi, I have met Senior Xue."
"Are you Qingyi from Nanya?" Xue Qingqing was also shocked when he heard Qingyi introduce himself.
"Exactly."
"Miss Qingyi is already a first-class grandmaster at such a young age. She has a bright future." Xue Qingqing admired and praised. A thirty-year-old first-class grandmaster has a very good chance of being extraordinary.
"Thank you, Senior Xue, for your compliment."
"Your name is Luo Xing, right?" Xue Qingqing turned around and asked again.
"Yes, Aunt Xue."
"I have a doubt. Xiang'er has a poison that corrodes her heart and palm. There are very few people in the world who can detoxify this poison. Especially after the poison invades her heart, it becomes even more difficult to detoxify her. Meng Yi's martial arts was abolished.
How did he do it?" Xue Qingqing asked.
"I was actually the one who cured Miss Xue's poison."
"You, you are a doctor?" Xue Qingqing said with great suspicion.
"Yaowanggu came to their mentor to save Miss Xue. Actually, they came to me because they had some grudges with Yaowanggu, so they had no choice but to ask their mentor to ask Yaowanggu to send Miss Xue to Nanya for treatment. It was also me.
I mean, because I don’t want to be praised and killed by Yaowanggu.” Luo Xing said frankly.
Xue Qingqing's face changed slightly. Yaowang Valley has a bad reputation in some aspects. She knows this. Most people may not know why and are deceived. However, Luo Xing was born in Nanya, so he has no idea about the dirty things behind Yaowang Valley.
If you know everything, how can you not be vigilant?
"So, without Yaowang Valley's consent, you sneaked into Baicao Pavilion at night and stole Xiang'er, right?"
"Yes, these are the master's ideas."
"Was it his idea?"
"Of course, Miss Xue and I are not related, so I still understand why doctors don't knock on the door," Luo Xing said.
“What does it mean that the doctor doesn’t knock on the door?”
"This is very simple, that is, doctors should not take the initiative to treat patients who do not ask for treatment. As long as the patient has no intention of seeking treatment, the doctor will not take the initiative to treat the patient."
"Don't doctors save lives and heal the wounded? Isn't it too cold-blooded for you to do this?"
"As a doctor, can you cure the patient 100%? No matter how powerful a doctor is, I'm afraid I can't do this. Therefore, if you take the initiative to treat a patient and he is not cured in the end, you have to bear the responsibility.
There are so many responsibilities and consequences that may destroy a doctor, but what good will it do to this world where all kinds of diseases are common?" Luo Xing asked rhetorically.
"Wouldn't that mean that you are willing to die without saving your life?"
"That is another situation. The doctor does not knock on the door. It means that the patient or the patient's family has no request for medical treatment when he or she is conscious. As a doctor, it is not appropriate to force it."
"I see, I understand." Xue Qingqing understood that this was a self-protective code of conduct for doctors to practice medicine.
It’s the same reason as rushing is not about buying and selling.
Even in the process of her medical practice, she would not take action unless the patients or family members requested her. She also suffered such a loss in her early years.
She didn't understand why those people put all the responsibility on her even though she took the initiative to help, but the final result was not very good.
Doctors must also protect themselves in order to treat or help more people.
"I want to know how you used to detoxify the little girl?"
Luo Xing smiled and then fell silent.
Xue Qingqing also realized that this was someone else's secret. She was already very well-mannered by inquiring into someone else's secrets without making others directly angry.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't ask this," Xue Qingqing said, "Can I see Xiang'er?"
"Of course you can, but not now. You have to play a show with your tutor, and then I will arrange for you to meet." Luo Xing said.
"Acting, what kind of acting?"
"You go to see your tutor, have a big quarrel, and then leave."
"You want me to help you get rid of the suspicion that Xiang'er was secretly taken away by you?" Xue Qingqing understood immediately.
"That's right, the great elder of Yaowang Valley went to Nanya to meet the family teacher and identified Miss Xue. Therefore, Yaowang Valley will definitely suspect that the family teacher secretly took away the person, and you and the family teacher are the same.
Noisy, make this matter public, and the suspicion will naturally disappear." Luo Xing said, "And this is also a good thing for Miss Xue."
"Is it also a good thing for Xiang'er?"
"Xiang'er can get rid of the control of Yaowang Valley and return to his father. You can also leave Yaowang Valley and no longer be restricted." Luo Xing said.
"Can you read minds?"
"No." Luo Xing shook his head.
"Then how do you know what I'm thinking?" Xue Qingqing asked.
