After resting at the medical center for the night, Su Qing hired a carriage the next morning and asked the waiter at the medical center to carry him in. He only said that he wanted to see a friend for the last time.
The sky was gray, and it was not clear for the first time since the Emperor's birthday banquet. At this moment, the sky was just like Su Qing's mood. There was clearly drizzle falling, but the sultry feeling made people feel mixed and not refreshed.
In the dark alley, porters moving goods came out of the back door of the warehouse. Although they could avoid various obstacles on the road with their skillful movements, they could not escape being surrounded by the hot mist, so they had to scream and curse. , and then slowly disappeared into the wine shop behind him to steal the slightest bit of refreshment.
Su Qing lay on the carriage and listened to the shouts and curses of passers-by fading away. He couldn't help but feel a lot lonely in his heart - he hated peace the most in his life, because he would think he was dead.
"You guys, shout as loudly as you want later." Su Qing threw two slings of money to the coachman and the accompanying boys, and continued: "I want everyone in the Gaofu to know that I am not going to die soon."
The waiter at the medical center said: "But Your Excellency, you only hurt your spleen and stomach by drinking too much, but you are far from talking about life and death!"
"Young man vomited blood all over his body, do you dare to say that I'm fine?" Su Qing continued to search all over his body, and gave the young man a large amount of money, saying: "I have never asked anyone in my life, do you think it is not enough?" After it’s done, I’ll double it and give you more!”
The boy looked back and forth, hesitated, and finally accepted the gift with a smile: "Master Su, do you want to win the favor of a noble lady from another family this time? But we can't afford to offend the Gao family..."
"Not a lady, but a man."
"ah?"
Before the coachman and the accompanying boy could figure out the cause and effect, they had already arrived in front of Gao's mansion. Su Qing quickly untied his coat, revealing the white lining of his inner shirt, which was still stained with the blood he coughed up last night.
"Go and make a big noise! The bigger the noise, the more money!" Su Qing shouted and kicked them out of the carriage, but after a while, there were wailing sounds in front of the Gao Mansion.
"Master Su, why are you so miserable? You are suffering from an incurable disease at a young age."
"My lords and ladies, I beg you to inform me that there is a man named Su Qing outside the door asking to see him. He is about to die, and he is here just to see his best friend again!"
"Please, please be accommodating. Our Lord Su is an old acquaintance with a nobleman in the family. He will be willing to come and meet..."
The guards in front of the door looked at each other in confusion.
At this time, Su Qing suddenly got out of the carriage, limped up to them, and said weakly: "If it's inconvenient to meet each other, why not wait here until we grow old, cough, cough, cough!" Before he finished speaking, he said Suddenly he coughed violently and fell to the ground unconscious.
"Master Su! Master Su!" The two boys hurried over to help.
The garrison in front of the Gao Mansion came to check it out a few times. The bloody smell on Su Qing's body became thicker due to today's gloomy air, and they seemed to recognize Su Qing's appearance.
"Isn't this a member of the Yuyi Zhao family? Go and report!"
After a while, a girl with a ponytail ran out. She looked to be no more than ten years old, but her black hair had already reached to her psoas, and she had a sword on her waist. She had an extraordinary temperament and was definitely not an ordinary maid.
"Are you Su Qing?" she asked, "I heard that you were about to die, so my sworn brother sent me to pay my respects."
"Brother? Is it Bai Feng, Brother Bai?" Su Qing looked at the girl intently, surprised and a little envious: "It's pitiful that I am alone now. They all abandoned me when they saw that I was dying. . Unlike Brother Bai, there are always heroes from all walks of life who risk their lives to follow, no matter men, women, old or young..."
The girl sneered and said: "Brother Su, my sworn brother will lead troops to patrol the city later. Please go find him yourself. There is no need to compliment him here."
"I'm already like this, do you still want me to walk in?" Su Qing fell weakly on the boy, drowsy.
"Here, get on the stretcher." After the girl said that, a servant from Gaofu came over carrying a stretcher and took Su Qing into the mansion.
Before they arrived at Bai Feng's residence, there were bursts of "sonorous" sounds of grinding iron, which made the two young men who followed Su Qing tremble in shock.
"Who is here?" Bai Feng was wearing casual clothes in the yard, sharpening his sword.
"Young man, pay homage to the general." The servants of the Gaofu family carrying the stretcher greeted each other one after another, and the two servants beside Su Qing also said: "Young man, pay homage to the general!"
Su Qing was lying on the stretcher and echoed: "You kid, did you forget about your brothers after you became famous?"
Bai Feng raised his sword and washed it with wine. He didn't take Su Qing's words seriously at all and said, "Tell me, what happened?"
"I was kicked out of the Zhao family!" Su Qing covered her face in grief and shook her head repeatedly: "They saw that I was terminally ill and would die soon, so they took the opportunity to clean up the house. I had nowhere to go but to go to Come here to vote for you."
"Haha, I can't cure your disease." Bai Feng danced the Dragon Sword several times, with elegant movement and decisive sword intent, and continued: "How can a great thief give up his stubbornness and be willing to do anything just because a person is about to die? Living under someone else's roof? I am making such a big show of my efforts this time just to tell others that I, Bai Feng, have a close relationship with the Zhao family."
"Uh...this." Su Qing was stunned for a moment.
"Brother-in-law is really good at predicting things." Akko then asked the boy beside Su Qing: "Tell me honestly whether he is going to die or not!"
"My lord, please spare your life! We say, we say..."
"Su Qing forced us to do all this!"
Bai Feng comforted him: "You can go, this matter has nothing to do with you."
When the servants carrying the stretcher saw this, they immediately threw Su Qing to the ground and cursed him coldly.
Su Qing lay on the ground as if he was arrogant, without any defense: "Sure enough, such a 'bitter trick' can't be hidden from you at all."
"Brother Su, do you know how the ministers in the court view Zhao Kuo?" Bai Feng said: "All the civil servants and generals said that the Zhao family's self-respect in defending the barbarians is a serious problem for the frontier. Only Sima Tu, the Heavenly Master of Taiping Dao, thinks that, Zhao Kuo is a God-given capable minister to the Qi Dynasty. Do I need to say more about the true meaning of this?"
"Brother Bai, do you really have no nostalgia for Yuyi Town?"
"When my country was destroyed and my family was destroyed, I was already a rootless duckweed. It was only when I was in Yuyi Town that I found a 'family' again."
Su Qing sat up with her legs crossed and continued to ask: "What if I said, I won't leave unless I can make you change your mind?"
"Then you stay here, I will never stop you, but if you want to hinder me from killing Taiping Dao and rescuing Yan'er, don't blame the sword for having no eyes." After Bai Feng finished speaking, Akko asked cautiously: "Yi Brother, this person is a disciple of the Zhao family, if he stays with me, I am afraid that the whole court will criticize him."
Bai Feng said: "I, Yuyi Town and the Zhao family have never been enemies, but Zhao Kuo and the traitors around him, I just wish I could not kill any of them."
After saying these words, Bai Feng went back to the house to change clothes, and immediately went to the school grounds to order troops to patrol the city. Su Qing saw that the other party was not hostile, so he followed him all the way without shame.
