There is also a gap between the secret guards and the secret guards. Lu Xingyue's secret guards are all top-notch masters. Once they look at each other, they will know that they are no match. The leader of the group dodged in a panic and looked at the carriage while hiding. "Do you know who we are?" ? Aren't you afraid of offending noble people by ruining our affairs?"
Lu Xingyue said nothing, not even raising his eyelids.
He looked at his legs.
Most of the consciousness has been restored there, and he is in a good mood.
Mulang sneered, "I'll tell you what, if you act rashly, aren't you afraid of offending people you can't afford to offend?"
Sure enough, the leader was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then looked solemn. He hesitated and looked in the direction of the carriage again. He couldn't see anything, which made it even more mysterious.
Mystery means uncontrollable and infinite possibilities.
He quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind, gave a gesture to the person behind him, and then said: "We have no intention to offend you, but we are rude today. I wonder if you can stay here. Our master will visit you someday and bring gifts to apologize." .”
This is a clever statement. If you come to the house and see it, if your family background is not as good as theirs, I am afraid that you will not apologize but ask for guilt, right?
Mulan chuckled and said, "Forget it, my noble family cannot bear the courtesy of your master. This time is a warning. If you dare to follow the miracle doctor again next time, don't blame us for being rude."
After saying that, he gave the others a look, and the menacing secret guard instantly flew up and disappeared into the streets.
The carriage also drove away quickly.
Only Mr. Jin’s secret guard was left in the narrow alley, leaning against the wall.
Someone asked: "Boss, are we just going to let this go? Damn - they are so cruel!"
The leader covered his face, which was swollen from a punch and hurt when he spoke. He turned around and glared at the speaker angrily, "How about you catch up and fight with them?"
"No, no, no, no."
The others were not much better either, with varying degrees of injuries on their bodies.
"That's all, go back and report to the young master before making any plans. We will get this debt back sooner or later!"

Lu Xingyue lifted the curtain of the carriage, watched the group of secret guards leave, and called out, "Mu Lang."
"My subordinate is here." Mulang walked to the carriage and lowered his head to obey the order.
"Send someone to follow them."
"yes."
Mulang whistled and gestured to the secret guard in the dark. The secret guard understood and immediately followed.
Lu Xingyue put down the curtain and said in a deep voice: "Go back home."
Mulang jumped up to the front room, flicked his whip and the horse started running slowly.
"Selling chestnuts~fresh sugar-roasted chestnuts!"
The hawker's cries mixed with the sweet fragrance came in through the cracks in the car window.
Lu Xingyue's eyebrows moved slightly, and he turned to look over. Thinking of the wife at home who liked snacks, he suddenly said: "Stop."
Mulan was confused: "Master?"
"Go buy some candied chestnuts."
Mulang was surprised: "Ah? Master, you want to eat?"
Lu Xingyue lowered his eyes, remembering the words of the miracle doctor, and slightly raised the corners of his mouth, "Yeah."
"Oh, okay." Mulang parked the carriage out of the way, quickly ran to the stall across the street, and said a few words to the boss. He didn't know how much to buy, so he simply said: "Just pretend. Pack two packs.”
The boss was stunned for a moment, and then became more enthusiastic. He filled the oil paper bags hard, and finally Mulan came back with two bags bigger than his head.
Lu Xingyue: "..."
Those who didn't know thought it contained two human heads.
He turned his head and glanced at the boss over there, and saw him smiling from ear to ear, waving to Mulang as if sending a gift to the God of Wealth.

The secret guard climbed in from the wall and went straight to Jin Jianyun's study.
Jin Jianyun was standing behind the table writing. When he heard the movement, he asked without raising his head: "Have you found the residence of the miracle doctor?"
The secret guard knelt down in shame and said solemnly: "This subordinate is incompetent and has lost track of me."
"Lost?" Jin Jianyun looked at him in surprise, "Is it possible that the miracle doctor is still a master?"
"No, there are experts around her."
The secret guard said: "At that time, we followed the miracle doctor into the alley, and suddenly a group of people dressed as secret guards came out. They were extremely skilled in martial arts, and their subordinates were no match for them, so they had no choice but to let the miracle doctor run away."
"Secret guard?" Jin Jianyun put down his pen and muttered: "There are not many in Yangdu who can afford such a powerful secret guard. Do you know who is behind it?"
The secret guard lowered his head and said, "I don't know, but the man was sitting on the carriage from beginning to end. He never got off or showed up. Judging from their tone, he might be a very important person."
Jin Jianyun was silent. Lu Xingyue's face suddenly flashed in his mind, but then he shook his head. He was not a nosy person.
The secret guard asked tentatively: "Master, do we still want to see the aphrodisiac hall returned?"
If you look at it, you may make enemies with others, but if you don't look at it, the miracle doctor might be attracted by others.
Jin Jianyun thought for a long time, and finally said: "Keep staring. If you can't stare at the miracle doctor, just keep an eye on shopkeeper Na Luo to see who she has frequent contacts with. Remember not to let her find out or offend her. We still have people to ask for. , I offended them, and it’s me who has a hard time.”
"My subordinate understands!"
Jin Jianyun nodded, "Back off."
"yes."
After the secret guard went out, he wrote a few more words, but he was still a little absent-minded. He simply put down the pen and called someone: "Go and send a letter to His Highness the Fifth Prince, saying that I have something important to report."

Shen Lansui was leaning on the couch with her eyes closed to rest her mind. She treated two people at once today and used up most of her powers. She was very exhausted and couldn't find the energy to do anything.
Thinking about Jin Jianyun's dishonesty again made him even more irritated.
She turned over and faced the window with her back facing out. She didn't like the sun, so she picked up the silk handkerchief and covered her face.
Lu Xingyue raised his hand to wave away Xia Xia and Guan Chun, and quietly came in. Seeing this, he stepped lightly and approached silently.
Shen Lansui didn't know it. He closed his eyes and just felt a little sleepy when he suddenly smelled a familiar sweet fragrance.
"Um?"
She sniffed hard and said, "This smell...is it roasted chestnuts with sugar?"
She opened her eyes suddenly and took off the veil from her face. When she turned around, she saw Lu Xingyue standing by the couch, looking at her with gentle eyes.
Shen Lansui frowned, "Am I dreaming? How could Lu Xingyue come back so early?"
Lu Xingyue: "..."
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and knowing that she said that on purpose, he turned around with the oil paper bag in his arms and said, "Since it's a dream, I'll wait until you wake up."
"Huh?" The sugar-roasted chestnuts in his mouth are about to fly away. Can Shen Lansui endure it?
She quickly stood up, grabbed Lu Xingyue's sleeve, held his wrist with her hand, and pretended to be surprised: "Ah, it's hot. It doesn't seem like a dream! Sanlang, are you back?"
Lu Xingyue couldn't help but curled his lips in laughter, and felt a little emotional. He was still lively and interesting when he was awake.
Although the sleeping face is also beautiful, it will inevitably feel lonely after looking at it for a long time.
He turned around, looked down at her small white hands, and asked softly: "Aren't you going to sleep?"
Shen Lansui has always been a big-hearted person. She smiled and said, "I'm hungry."
As he spoke, he looked at the oil paper bag in his arms, his eyes naked and unconcealed with desire, "What is in this? Is it for me?" (End of Chapter)
