Chapter 13
Xiao Yan and Li Jinfeng were very obedient, when Mei Xue went to Zhizhu Garden in the evening, they were not there.

As soon as Mei Xue walked to the gate of the courtyard, she saw a tall man coming out of it, half a head taller than Peng Liang.

The man looked at Mei Xue, then at Jiu'er next to him, and suddenly he strode up and knelt down in front of Mei Xue and said loudly:
"Little man Gao Yuan, thank you for curing my master's illness. From now on, whenever a girl has a errand, the villain will never refuse."

Mei Xue hurriedly avoided half of her body, and said to Gao Yuan in a gentle voice:

"You're welcome, this is also my job, so get up quickly."

Gao Yuan got up, stayed where he was and watched Mei Xue enter the main courtyard before he strode out.

Li Jinzhi lay on the bed, quietly looking at the door of the bedroom.

Peng Liang stepped forward to help Li Jinzhi sit up, and wanted to serve Li Jinzhi a meal, but Li Jinzhi waved his hand to signal him to go out first.

Jiu'er glanced at Mei Xue who was sitting on the brocade bench, and followed Peng Liang out.

Only this time, there was no smile on Li Jinzhi's face. He looked at the expressionless Mei Xue, and after a long time, he pursed his lips and said:

"Miss Mei, I'm sorry to have wronged you."

Mei Xue raised her eyes, looked at Li Jinzhi calmly and said:

"Mr. Song has shown the greatest sincerity, and I have accepted it. Since it is a condition that both of us can accept, you don't have to say polite words."

Li Jinzhi was silent for a long time, then smiled suddenly, and then said softly to Mei Xue:

"The concubine is not a powerful person, otherwise her nanny would not dare to make decisions for her.

Over the past ten years, she has felt guilty and devoted herself to taking care of me. It can even be said that without her taking care of me day and night, I don't know how many times I have died at the hands of Concubine Lin. "

A light of water flashed across Li Jinzhi's eyes, he lowered his eyes to cover them, then looked up at Mei Xue and continued:
"Although I asked Gao Yuan to send Liu's family away quietly, but I know Concubine Lin very well, and I didn't dare to rush her, otherwise she would dare to make trouble even if she had no reason.

And in this palace, who knows how many people are eyeliners in the palace?
But I can assure the girl that apart from this matter, in the future, as long as the girl is by my side, I will never let you suffer any more grievances. "

The candlelight was soft, and Mei Xue looked at Li Jinzhi quietly, not moved, but filled with emotion in her heart.

She had complained a lot about this world after her mother passed away, but the young man in front of her, who was not yet 20 years old, knew that what she was about to face was the most powerful opponent in the world, but she still rushed forward calmly.

And she couldn't see any resentment or fear in him. Even in such a situation, he was still thinking about others.

Even for Princess Shu, he had to protect the murderer's family who killed him.

Is such a kind-hearted person really suitable for the road of imperial power paved with blood?

But Mei Xue also knew that she had been living in the countryside under the protection of her mother for several years, and Li Jinzhi had always lived in the royal family, so he must know the way of survival better than Mei Xue did.

Mei Xue got up, opened the food box to serve Li Jinzhi a meal, and when she handed the silver spoon to Li Jinzhi, she saw him staring at her tenderly.

The tenderness and attachment in those eyes are enough to disturb any woman's mind.

But it was only a split second before Li Jinzhi returned to his normal state. As usual, he thanked him gently, then lowered his head and ate quietly.

Mei Xue felt that she must have read it wrong, so she didn't take it to heart, and asked Peng Liang to come in to serve her, and she took Jiu'er back to the guest courtyard of the inner house.

From the next day, Mei Xue began to arrange for Li Jinzhi to take a medicinal bath.

The first time she asked her servants to prepare the soup, Mei Xue was worried and went to the clean room to check it herself.

Xiao Yan came to Mei Xue with a smile, pretending to be mysterious and saying:
"Miss Mei, that guy Shen Qingyang hasn't been out and about since yesterday, do you think he's already fallen ill?"

Mei Xue didn't even look at Xiao Yan, and when everything was arranged, she asked Peng Liang to take someone to the bedroom to help Li Jinzhi, while she left by the side door.

Xiao Yan followed Mei Xue step by step, Mei Xue glanced at him and said:

"Don't worry, Mr. Shen can last at least another three to five days with his endurance. We'll talk about it after he gets someone to invite me."

Xiao Yan frowned like a toothache, but he had to admit that Mei Xue was right.

With Shen Qingyang's temperament, asking him to ask for help might be more difficult than letting him die.

A few days later, when Li Jinzhi could sit in the yard and bask in the sun, the sergeants around Shen Qingyang came to invite Mei Xue.

Mei Xue led Jiu'er to the guest room in the outer courtyard slowly, and saw Shen Qingyang standing under the big banyan tree in the courtyard, still with his hands behind his back, with a cold expression on his face, nothing unusual.

Mei Xue smiled inwardly, walked to his side and said:

"It hurts so much that you don't lie down, what's the benefit of being stiff like this?"

Shen Qingyang gritted his teeth and said angrily in a low voice:

"Did you already see it, why didn't you remind me?"

Mei Xue glanced at him coldly and said:

"I thought Mr. Shen was not an ordinary person, even if a thousand arrows pierced his heart, he could endure the pain."

After speaking, Mei Xue lifted her foot and walked into the house.

Shen Qingyang clenched his fists, followed slowly but still calmly.

Mei Xue leisurely sat in the round chair, and when she saw Shen Qingyang quietly grabbing the armrest of the round chair when she sat down, she said lightly:

"In front of me, you are no different from other patients, so don't hold on."

Shen Qingyang's face turned darker, he insisted on sitting upright, looked at Mei Xue coldly and said:
"I've been fine all these years, why did I suddenly fall ill at this juncture? Did you do something wrong?"

Mei Xue sneered:

"Seafood, salty food, humid weather, any of them may make you sick, why do you doubt me alone? Is it because I can see your hidden disease?"

Shen Qingyang avoided Mei Xue's eyes, lowered his head and didn't speak for a long time. After a while, he said:
"I must bring Li Jinzhi back to Beijing as soon as possible. This is not something I can control."

Mei Xue looked at Shen Qingyang indifferently, and said coldly:
"Could it be possible that both of you came to Beijing with illnesses, and you were carried into the capital with your horses and horses exhausted, disabled or dead, so that you can achieve someone's reputation for benevolence and filial piety?"

Shen Qingyang suddenly raised his head, stared at Mei Xue without saying a word.

Mei Xue stood up and said calmly:

"Not everyone is as stubborn as you, maybe you can play a bitter scene well and win the master's heart even more.

In addition, if you don't cherish your own life, can you still expect others to treat you as a person? "

As Mei Xue said that, she walked out, saying as she walked:
"If you don't want to die, fast for a whole day and night, and then have someone call me. Otherwise, I'm sure you won't survive this spring."

The blue figure of the woman disappeared very quickly, Shen Qingyang turned his face and stared at the open door, and suddenly laughed silently.

Even the bright spring scenery in the yard was a little bit paler in his smile.

The breeze came slowly, and the green bamboo moved slightly.Li Jinzhi, dressed in white, was sitting under a flower stand in the yard reading a book, with a thin beige blanket covering his legs.

Xiao Yan swept into the yard like a gust of wind, sat beside Li Jinzhi and drank a few sips of tea before saying:
"Cousin, Miss Mei is going to treat Shen Qingyang tomorrow."

Li Jinzhi closed the book in his hand and put it on his knee, pinched a piece of snack with a handkerchief and handed it to Xiao Yan, saying:
"In a while, you can tell Peng Liang to ask Chen Yiling to help Miss Mei tomorrow. The medicinal materials and other things that may be used should be selected from the best in the mansion."

Xiao Yan nodded while eating snacks, and took two more sips of tea after eating and said:
"Shen Qingyang is such a strong man, and I don't know who it is that can use such vicious methods to harm him?"

Li Jinzhi smiled, didn't answer Xiao Yan's words, and only told him:

"Tomorrow, everyone who can get in touch with the scene, you must instruct, Master Shen's condition must not be spread."

Xiao Yan was stunned, but still responded with an "oh".
