A ray of sunlight reflected on the window sill, Zhou Xingyun opened his eyes dimly, and couldn't help but see a very familiar yellow wooden beam.
This is...Yunxia Inn? My room?
Zhou Xingyun thought in a daze. When he slowly turned his head, a breathtakingly beautiful face came into his eyes.
Wei Suyao held his hand tightly and rested quietly on the edge of the bed.
Zhou Xingyun was inexplicably moved in his heart. Wei Suyao was such a good girl who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside. She worked tirelessly to take care of herself all night long.
However, he was moved. Zhou Xingyun saw the beauty's heroic figure and her cold and unblasphemable beauty. He couldn't help but got naughty and stretched out his hand to pinch the girl's pretty nose, making her unable to breathe in her sleep.
Wei Suyuan's slender eyelashes trembled slightly, and after a moment she frowned.
However, just when Zhou Xingyun couldn't help but chuckle, the girl suddenly opened her eyes, stared at him tepidly and asked: "What do you mean by this?"
"Ahem...I'm sorry Miss Wei, you are so beautiful that I can't tell whether I am awake or not. Just now I thought it was a dream, so I was so obsessed that I wanted to make a joke with you..."
Zhou Xingyun explained in embarrassment that the beauty of a beautiful woman cannot be blasphemed, so he couldn't help but blaspheme. This rebellious attitude must not be known to the other party.
"Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?" Wei Suyao's cheeks were rosy. Every girl doesn't like others to praise her beauty, let alone the praise of her beloved.
"A little hungry."
"Wait a minute, I'll help you make a bowl of porridge."
"No, I can do it myself."
Last night, Zhou Xingyun was knocked unconscious by the enchantress from Fengtian City, but he was in good physical condition. He was not sick or in pain, and his shoulder wound was not cracked. He was very energetic...
However, Wei Suyao refused to let him work hard. Not only did he cook a bowl of porridge with his own hands, but he also fed him to drink it in one mouthful. He was gentle and considerate, which immediately made Zhou Xingyun feel ashamed.
Fortunately, he teased a beautiful woman before, which was really a serious sin.
"Miss Wei, what time is it now? How did I get back last night?"
After finishing the porridge happily, Zhou Xingyun asked Wei Suyao curiously. He was tortured by the demon girl from Fengtian City last night, and then his mind was disconnected. He had no idea what happened after that...
"It's already past midnight. As for last night, I heard from Miss Xu that you fainted at the wellhead next to the Sixteenth Prince's residence for some reason. They escorted you back to the inn..."
"Where's Zhiqianren?"
"Miss Xu and Miss Qin are both here this morning, but..."
"But what?"
Zhou Xingyun looked at Wei Suyao in confusion, and saw her turn around and pick up the yellow cloth roll on the table...
"This morning the ambassador of the DPRK came to the Yunxia Inn and read out the Empress Dowager's edict, saying that you have combined medical ethics and medical skills and contributed more than a hundred prescriptions to the people of the world. The Sixteenth Emperor of the Emperor personally recommended you to be a doctor of the Great Medical Department. Now Mr. Zhou is already a doctor of the DPRK.
An official of the eighth rank of Zhongzheng."
Wei Suyao said with joy on his face, but Zhou Xingyun was keenly aware that there was a hint of sadness in the girl's smile for unknown reasons.
"Miss Wei, is there something on your mind?"
"I...I suddenly feel that the distance between me and the young master has become farther."
"how you said that?"
"Young Master Zhou is an official of the eighth rank, but the daughter of the common people is a slut..."
Wei Suyuan hesitated to speak. Zhou Xingyun became an official at a young age, and his future was limitless. In the future, there would definitely be many good ladies vying to marry him, but she was a woman from the world who only knew how to wield swords.
Not worthy of him at all.
In the eyes of people in the martial arts world, officials are high-ranking and unattainable beings. Although they often ridicule and look down on weak officials, they are very envious in their hearts...
In addition, the righteous people in martial arts respect the most honest officials who seek help for the people, and medical officers like Zhou Xingyun whose job is to save people are even more admired by everyone, so Wei Suyuan is afraid that Zhou Xingyun, who has a bright future, will dislike her as a slut...
…
"Miss Wei, how can you think like this!" Zhou Xingyun suddenly held the girl's hands and said with a serious expression: "As the saying goes, you should never forget the knowledge of poverty and lowliness, and the wife of wretched chaff will not go to court. I have a notorious reputation in the world, and everyone laughs at me.
I am a prodigal from Jianshu, but Miss Wei doesn't mind and shares my sorrows with me. God allows me, Zhou Xingyun, to meet such a beautiful, affectionate and good girl! How can I despise you for being a prostitute!"
Zhou Xingyun doesn't quite understand Wei Suyao's mentality. Even ten thousand times for a beautiful woman like her is not too many for him, so how could he dislike it? Besides, when August inherits a new strange memory, the unparalleled medical skills will fade away.
If there is no trace of him, it will be impossible for him to practice medicine and save people. Sooner or later, this medical officer will die...
And the most important point is that Zhou Xingyun means to be free in the world. He is a good man who is determined to become the leader of the martial arts world, marry a beautiful woman in the world, and become a romantic legend for a generation.
To sum up, he will neither stay in the capital as an official nor leave Wei Suyao, who currently has the highest opinion of him.
"..." Wei Suyao blushed and lowered her head, letting Zhou Xingyun hold her hands.
The other party's words, "The wife of a wretched man will never leave the court", made her happy and shy. Now Wei Suyao is completely trapped in the sweet words of a certain pervert and cannot extricate herself...
Zhou Xingyun didn't expect that his unintentional words could deceive the blond girl into becoming happy.
"Miss Wei, if you don't mind me, why don't you temporarily become my official bodyguard and protect my life."
"As long as Mr. Xingyun likes it, Suyao has no objection."
Zhou Xingyun read the imperial edict carefully and found that he was an eighth-rank official. Not only could he enjoy a salary, but he also had his own small mansion, and he had no pressure to hire beauties as guards.
Wei Suyao wholeheartedly nodded in agreement. Lang wanted to have a concubine, so why not do it...
"Third Senior Brother, wake up!"
Bang! The door to the room suddenly opened, and Wu Jiewen barged in carelessly. Zhou Xingyun was seen holding Wei Suyao's little hand tightly, seemingly flirting.
The couple's good intentions were ruined. Wei Suyao hurriedly withdrew his hands and straightened his sitting posture with a sanctimonious look on his face.
"I'm sorry, senior brother, I'll come back later..."
"Hey, you've ruined the good atmosphere. Are you going to ruin it again later? Sit down. How is the business at the inn today?"
Zhou Xingyun casually pulled Wu Jiewen back. Yesterday, he had taught Lao Kang the sauce recipe for making barbecue burritos. Now Yunxia Inn can still operate in an orderly manner even without him in charge.
"Don't talk about this! Senior brother, you actually became an official! Oh my god, if my aunt, master, and uncle know this, it would be weird to jump up in joy!"
"What's so fun about an eighth-grade official?"
"Third Senior Brother, you are only over eighteen this year! Others have been busy for most of their lives and went to Beijing to take the imperial examination and get the top prize, but they may not be reused by the court and become an official. Now you are not only in the eighth rank, but you can also stay in the capital.
, treating illnesses for high-ranking officials, your future is limitless!"
Wu Jie was frothing at the words, obviously he didn't expect that Zhou Xingyun was just starting out and had become an eighth-rank official in the capital. If he returned to his hometown in fine clothes at this time, he would definitely shock everyone in Jian Shu Villa.
"Those who look down on Third Senior Brother will definitely show their courtesy to you. Second Senior Sister might just lie down and wait for Senior Brother's favor..."
"Don't make a fuss. Do you really think it's easy to be an official? Have you heard that being with the emperor is like being with a tiger? Nowadays, the government and the opposition are divided into two factions. If you take the wrong position, you will kill the nine tribes! I think the best way to protect yourself is to retreat as soon as possible.
plan!"
Zhou Xingyun smiled gloomily and cursed secretly that he really shouldn't have been tempted by Xu Zhiqian and went to a first-class academy for an interview. Now it was fun, he had made a mess out of nowhere and got involved in the dispute between the two major factions of the current dynasty.
"Ah, it seems that Senior Brother Xingyun is quite foresighted and has not been dazzled by the joy of becoming an official."
"Xu Zhiqian! Who caused the situation today!"
Xu Zhiqian's voice suddenly came from outside the door, and Zhou Xingyun was immediately furious. If this woman hadn't tried every means to coax him into coming to Beijing, he wouldn't have suffered yesterday.
"Senior Brother Xingyun, Zhiqian has no intention of harming you. I just hope that you can become an official and benefit the people. However, now that the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor has recommended you to be an official, the Young Master has fallen deeply into the anti-insurgent camp. If you don't make atonement for your crimes quickly,
I’m afraid that the nine tribes will be implicated.”
"Are you threatening me?" Zhou Xingyun glanced coldly at Xu Zhiqian, Qin Beiyan, and Han Feng who entered the room one after another.
"Zhiqian is just reminding the young master that the sixteenth son of the emperor has evil intentions and is vicious and cunning. I hope that the young master will not help the evil deeds and be infamous for thousands of years."
"Haha, okay. Miss Xu warned me to accept it. But I also advise you that history has always been written by the victors, and my current task is to make the sixteenth emperor the victor."
Zhou Xingyun was suddenly extremely angry. Unexpectedly, Xu Zhiqian not only didn't care about him, but also aggressively warned him, as if he had voluntarily joined the anti-invaders camp.
Very good, since Xu Zhiqian wants to cause trouble, he will accompany her to the end, or at worst, he will directly switch sides to help the Sixteenth Prince.
"..." Xu Zhiqian was immediately confused when she heard this. She originally just wanted to put a little pressure on Zhou Xingyun to make him understand the seriousness of the situation, but who knew that the other party was so careless that he gave up on himself after just a word of disagreement.
"Senior Brother Xingyun, don't be angry. Zhiqian just wants you to understand that helping the Sixteenth Prince is committing rebellion and will be beheaded." Xu Zhiqian's tone softened instantly. Now she finally remembered that Zhou Xingyun is a soft-spoken person who doesn't take hard work.
Guy.
"So what if you rebel and commit rebellion? Don't you understand the principle of success and defeat?" Zhou Xingyun looked sideways at Han Feng. The boy's deflated look was really funny.
"Shhh!" Xu Zhiqian quickly made a mute gesture. Zhou Xingyun said such rebellious words in broad daylight. Isn't he really afraid that he will implicate the nine tribes?
"Ms. Xu is feeling guilty? Isn't your first-level academy so great that you want to help the crown prince ascend the throne? And you even said that I am a charlatan and a charlatan. It's a good time for us to go back to our respective camps and we can have a good show of skills to see who is better."
Zhou Xingyun said with a arrogant smile: "I have all kinds of means to help the sixteenth prince become emperor. If you, a first-grade school, have the ability, feel free to come over!"
"Third Senior Brother, Junior Sister Xu, what's wrong with you? If you have something to say, please talk to me and don't quarrel."
"Yesterday you went to Yipin Academy for an interview. What happened?"
