Fourth Lord's Black Moonlight Queen

Chapter 37 If I'm In Your Heart, So What About Three Thousand Rivals
"what!!"

Li Jingui was so frightened that he squatted down and hugged himself tightly, why is he so unlucky!

What she is most afraid of is the night of thunderstorms. When she was a child, she could barely overcome her fear with her fourth elder brother by her side.

When she grows up, she can only wrap the quilt tightly on thunderstorm nights, but it doesn't help, and every time she has to alarm the fourth elder brother to accompany her to fall asleep.

"Boom!!"

The roaring thunder exploded in the ears, and the pouring rain came unexpectedly.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

She was so terrified that she shed tears uncontrollably, why is she so useless.

It doesn't matter if you can't help the fourth elder brother with anything, even finding a female corpse can't be done.

"Li Jingui! You can do it!"

She gritted her teeth, forced herself to overcome the fear in her heart, and rummaged through the corpses one by one in the torrential rain.

In the side hall, Yinzhen was awakened by thunder and lightning. Unfortunately, he got up in a hurry, without even bothering to put on his shoes, and hurried towards Li Jingui's room with bare feet.

"Jingui!"

He anxiously called Li Jingui's name, and when he ran to the door and saw her room was pitch black, he remembered that Li Jingui had gone out of the palace to accompany Lan Qier these few days.

"Grandpa, what's the matter?"

Su Peisheng was awakened by the fourth elder brother's shout, rubbing his sleepy eyes and hurried to the fourth elder brother.

"It's okay, I remember that the jasmine tea that girl Jingui dried in the afternoon is still hanging in the courtyard, Xiao Suzi, go and take it back."

"The servant will collect it now, sir, you should rest early."

Su Peisheng watched his nose with his eyes, and his nose watched his heart, so naturally he would not reveal Si Prince's thoughts.

The relationship between the fourth elder brother and sister Jin Gui is really gluey, and the master is so distraught even after she leaves for one night.

In the capital branch of Zhusi Academy, Tang Haoqing was reading a pharmacopoeia under the dim light.

"Tang Lei, what time is it?"

"It's three quarters."

"Did she go to the appointment truthfully?"

"Who?" Tang Lei scratched his head and thought hard, but he pretended not to know on purpose.

"Tang Liuying!"

"Young Master, Miss Li is looking for corpses at the mass grave right now, but she seems to be very frightened, looking for corpses while crying."

"The rain is really heavy, and I don't know when it will last. How can she, a weak woman, survive?"

Both are women, Tang Liuying and Li Jingui have gone through a trip to Xiangxi together, and they have a very good impression of this kind girl.

At this time, he couldn't help but start to say a few nice words for her in front of his master.

Unexpectedly, she actually had the courage to go to the mass grave alone in the middle of the night to find the corpse.

Seeing the chaotic rain beating on the glazed tiles frantically, he became disturbed for no reason in his heart.Tang Liuying's words still echoed in her mind:

She seemed terrified, crying and searching for the body.

"Go to the mass grave, bring an extra umbrella!"

At this time, the torrential rain was pouring, and Li Jingui was exhausted from crying, and he still had to tremblingly search for a female corpse that met the requirements.

I thought it would be easy to find a female corpse that met the requirements, but God always seemed to be making things difficult for her tonight. After searching through no less than two hundred corpses, I still couldn't find the target.

She was anxious and angry, frantically picking at the corpses among the dead, what should I do?Time is running out!

"Li Jingui, the time has come!"

Tang Haoqing stood next to the Naihe Pavilion not far away with an oiled paper umbrella, watching this stubborn woman knelt on her knees and rummaged through every corpse.

"Wait, trust me! I can find it!"

"Strange? The corpse of a 20-year-old woman should be easy to find here. Why hasn't she found it after searching for so long?"

"Could it be that someone has tampered with it?"

Tang Liuying vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

"It's my subordinate... After dinner, my subordinate specially ordered someone to remove all the female corpses that meet the requirements."

"This girl is very extreme in her actions, and I don't want this kind of disaster to appear around the young master..."

Tang Lei muttered dejectedly, but Tang Liuying exclaimed.

"Miss Jingui!"

It was raining cold at night, and Li Jingui's body was already thin, but at this moment, he was a little bit precarious and unable to stand firmly.

"Li Jingui, you have passed the first level."

Tang Haoqing looked at the stubborn woman shivering in the rain but still refused to give up, and finally let go of her compromise

"Thank you, Teacher Tang..."

She was already extremely uncomfortable, but under the stimulation of great joy and sorrow, she only felt that the world was spinning before her eyes, and her eyes went dark, and she actually fell into the pile of corpses.

"Miss Jingui, be careful!"

Tang Liuying's eyes were quick and her hands were quick, she just wanted to help, but she found that the young master beside her had already jumped in front of Li Jingui in a flash of surprise.

"umbrella!"

Tang Haoqing hugged the fainted woman into her arms with great guilt. She was very thin, and she was carried lightly, as if she would drift away like smoke if she wasn't paying attention.

From the mass grave to Zhusi Academy, along the way Tang Haoqing held the fainted Li Jingui tightly in his arms and never let go.

"Young master, why don't you send Ms. Li to the subordinate's room to rest."

"No, she has a bad fever, I have to take care of it myself."

He carried Li Jingui straight into his room and placed him directly on his bed.

Tang Lei and Tang Liuying looked at each other, and they both saw the unconcealable shock on each other's faces.

The young master has a serious obsession with cleanliness, and never allows anyone to set foot in his room, let alone the bed where he lives, Tang Lei has to clean it himself almost every day.

"Young master, there is a sentence that my subordinates don't know whether to say or not?"

Tang Liuying bit the bullet and approached her, the young master treated Miss Li a bit special.

"Since you are not sure, then you don't have to speak."

"...Your subordinate obeys orders!" Tang Liuying was at a loss for words for a moment, and could only step aside in embarrassment.

"This woman is fourth elder brother Yinzhen's personal maid, and I heard that she is also one of the eight pre-appointed court ladies for trial marriage."

"The fourth elder brother treats Miss Li very special."

Tang Liuying still gritted her teeth and reported the information she had collected recently, fearing that the young master would be overwhelmed for a while and would be in deep trouble.

"What does it have to do with me? She is a patient and I am a doctor."

"I just pity her and have no other thoughts."

While taking Li Jingui's pulse, Tang Haoqing reiterated calmly.

"Tang Lei, go and make some brown sugar ginger soup to dispel the cold."

"Tang Liuying, find some dry clothes and change for her."

"Subordinates obey."

"Subordinates, go now!"

At this time, only Li Jingui and Tang Haoqing were left in the room, and his hand was still on her trembling and cold elbow and he did not withdraw.

"Trial marriage court lady? Heh. A scheming woman who is greedy for vanity."

"Boom!"

In the midst of lightning and thunder, the woman lying on the bed frowned uncomfortably, and suddenly stretched out her hand to hold his arm tightly.

"Master, don't leave me alone! I'm so scared, the sound of thunder is so scary. Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...

"Ah!"

He couldn't help chuckling, he didn't expect that this woman would have the courage to search for corpses in the mass grave in the middle of the night, but she was frightened by the common sound of lightning and thunder.

He wanted to withdraw his hand from her embrace, but heard her sobbing softly.

The patient is the biggest, and the doctor has a parental heart. He helplessly stretched out his other hand and patted her on the back lightly.

In fact, they massage the acupoints on the back methodically to help her fall asleep better.

"Young master...clothes..."

"Shh!"

Tang Haoqing quickly made a silent movement, and it took him a lot of effort to lull the restless woman to sleep.

"Young master... sleeping hole!"

Tang Liuying kindly reminded that she had never seen the young master serve someone so carefully.

He could have touched Li Jingui's sleeping point, so why bother to massage her to help her fall asleep.

Tang Haoqing reached out and gently touched Li Jingui's sleeping point, then got up and left the room.

"Change her clothes!"

……

In the early morning of the next day, with Tang Liuying's support, Li Jingui came to Tang Haoqing's medicine hut.

"What is the second level?"

It was a fluke to pass yesterday's test. If Tang Haoqing had asked her to open up the woman's body on the spot to find the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys, she would not know how to use the knife.

Before he regretted it, Li Jingui dragged Tang Liuying to find Tang Haoqing as soon as he woke up, fearing that he would regret it.

"For this second test, there are no less than a thousand acupuncture points on a human body."

"A human body has about 52 single points, 720 double points, [-] extra-meridian points, and [-] points for long-term use."

"There are 72 key points, of which 36 points are generally not fatal when clicked, and the remaining [-] points are fatal points, commonly known as death points."

"I'll give you a month to get familiar with these acupoints. After one month, if you can successfully memorize these acupoints, you will pass the test."

"Can Teacher Tang speak more slowly?"

Li Jingui asked weakly while biting the holder of the brush in embarrassment.

A good memory is not as good as a bad pen, she must write down everything verbatim.

"No need to memorize it by rote!"

Tang Haoqing took out a thick book from the various bookshelves and handed it to Li Jingui.

"It's all here! Here are the notes and annotations I made in the early years, I hope it can be helpful to you."

As if he had found a treasure, Li Jingui hurriedly hugged the thick book in his arms.

"My lord, the carriage sent by Princess Mansion to pick up Miss Li has arrived at the door."

"Well, don't send it!"

Li Jingui bowed respectfully and left. As soon as he stepped into the carriage, he saw the fourth elder brother sitting in the carriage with a gloomy expression.

"Grandpa..."

"Who were you with last night? Professor Tang? Huh?"

As soon as the palace gate opened, he rushed out of the palace impatiently, thinking of taking her back to the palace earlier, Qin Tianjian said that there would be thunderstorms in the next few days, and he didn't know how well she slept last night?

Unexpectedly, when she arrived at the princess mansion, she was told that she hadn't returned all night.

He was so anxious that he almost ordered the admiral of the Nine Gates to blockade the capital to search for Li Jingui's whereabouts, but at this moment he got the news that she was in the academy.

"What did you do last night?"

He had never seen the dress on her, so it obviously didn't belong to her.

Yinzhen asked in a cold tone, his scrutinizing eyes seemed to penetrate her soul.

"What do you think the servants can do?"

Li Jingui asked with a faint smile.

"Is the master so distrustful of the servants? The servants have always felt that if the master has me in his heart, what can I do even if there are three thousand rivals in love?"

"Because the servant believes in the Lord, no matter what happens, the servant will believe in the sincerity of the Lord. What about the Lord?"

She hated this feeling of not being trusted, so she said resentfully.

"Jingui... I'm wrong... I... I'm just worried that something will happen if you go out alone, I'm so anxious, I didn't even eat breakfast..."

"Did you sleep well last night? Why are you so pale?"

Li Jingui's heart felt warmed by the caring look of the fourth elder brother, and she took a deep breath.

Buried his head into the warm arms of the fourth elder brother.
