Although there was not much time to rest, and he would have to go to court in a few hours, Su Xuan did not rush to lie down on the bed and close his eyes to sleep. Instead, he threw the medicine package into the bathtub very regularly, heated up the hot water, and kept the medicine outside the wall of the Imperial Medical Office. The sound of hurried footsteps could be heard sparsely.
"How come Jin Yiwei's work efficiency has become so low?"
Su Xuan knew that although it was already dark in the palace now, the guards did not dare to close their eyes for a moment. After all, he saw with his own eyes the leading man in black and the man in black with a knife escaping. These two people were in Weiyang. Many people died in the palace. If they were allowed to escape, they might suffer many more disasters.
How could these Jin Yiwei be able to sleep?
"That's all, that's all, it's none of my business!"
Su Xuan was not nervous. The Imperial Medical Office was not a remote place. In fact, it was in the center of the palace. No matter how stupid those two men in black were, they would not come here. There was nothing wrong with the Imperial Medical Office. The secret passage leading outside the palace is the easiest to discover and catch.
Su Xuan walked to his secret room, preparing to add some medicine for treating trauma to the wooden barrel of the medicinal bath. Only ten steps behind him, a huge wooden box quietly opened a small crack.
When all the medicinal materials were put into the barrel, Su Xuan waited quietly for a while, holding a book "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" in his hand, and sat naked in the barrel.
The sound of turning books filled the quiet room. Su Xuan's forehead was sweating due to the temperature of the water, but his mind and body were completely relaxed.
Su Xuan looked at it and muttered in his mouth: "One of the methods of flattening the pulse! I asked: How can the pulse be used to diagnose blood, qi, and internal organs..."
Reading is Su Xuan's habit. It is easier to absorb knowledge and it is easier to focus on reading. But now it is Su Xuan's good reading habit that makes him not notice what is behind him at all. The top cover of the wooden box was slowly being opened, and a black head emerged quietly from it.
"There are three parts of the pulse, yin and yang multiply..."
Su Xuan was still studying. The injuries on his body were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the bruises were slowly reducing. All of this was seen by the man in black in the wooden box, who instantly had an idea in his mind. .
The wooden box was completely opened, and the figure of the man in black appeared in Su Xuan's bedroom. However, in order to reduce the burden on his body, the man in black had already discarded all his weapons far away from Su Xuan's palace. Outside the office, the man in black tiptoed out of the wooden box, one hand turned into a claw, tiptoeing, and slowly walked towards Su Xuan, only ten steps away, but he was extremely careful.
In fact, the man in black knew that Su Xuan had no internal strength or kung fu, but the Imperial Medical Office was located roughly in the center of the palace. Just a shout from Su Xuan could attract almost all the royal guards and palace guards to come here. The men in black knew that there were crouching tigers and hidden dragons in the palace. It could be seen from the fact that the two old men were able to kill the men in black with ease.
Therefore, the man in black did not dare to act rashly. The only safe way was to control Su Xuan first.
Su Xuan still didn't realize that the danger was getting closer and closer to him, and he still focused on the book in his hand.
"The pulses are divided into cun and the ruler, and the cun pulse is divided into the meridians to wait for the yang..."
The man in black was only one palm away from Su Xuan. The man in black could even clearly see the words on the book Su Xuan held in his hand. The man in black was about to grab Su Xuan's throat with one hand to silence him. , but there was a burst of footsteps outside Su Xuan's door, causing the man in black to quickly hide his figure and get under Su Xuan's bed.
"Mr. Su! Have you rested?"
Su Xuan frowned, obviously unaware that he had just escaped from the hands of death, and muttered dissatisfiedly.
"It's so late, who else is looking for me?"
"Wait a minute! I'll be right back!"
Su Xuan simply put on his clothes and opened the door, only to find that it was Qi Mingxuan and his party standing at the door.
"Master Qi, we see you again! What? Is there something wrong? Or are there casualties in the Jin Yiwei and need medical treatment?"
"None of these..." Qi Mingxuan turned his head and looked inside Su Xuan's door, trying to see some clues. Su Xuan obviously understood what the other party meant. He had held back before, but this time outside his room, You still have to look around like this, do you really think you have no privacy?
"Master Qi?" Su Xuan took a step back to the left and asked in a cold tone: "What do you mean? If it is not an urgent matter, please do not observe the room below at will! If you want Come in, you can give me the official uniform of Jinyiwei! I will open the door immediately, and you can check it as you like!"
Qi Mingxuan heard that Su Xuan's tone was already a little unhappy, and apologized quickly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Su, it is indeed a bit offensive, but our people and the joint imperial guards have searched the entire palace and only caught one person in black. There is another person who is unknown, but according to our spies’ speculation, he should still be in the palace.”
"So what if it's in the palace? How come it's here with me? Master Qi, do you still suspect that I secretly harbor such a vicious element?"
Qi Mingxuan waved his hands repeatedly.
"That's not what I meant. I'm just worried about your safety, Mr. Su. Mr. Su's role tonight is simply extraordinary! If it weren't for Mr. Su, I don't know how many people would have been injured! I'm also worried that the escaped man in black deliberately came to trouble you. !”
Su Xuan snorted coldly.
"Master Qi, when you say this, you really mean it all the time. How do the men in black know where I live? Master Qi, if there is nothing important, please come back!"
Qi Mingxuan also knew that Su Xuan was very tired now, so he simply put one hand behind his back and signaled to the brothers behind him to leave quickly.
"Excuse me, Mr. Su, I am really having a hard time today. Since there is no problem, I will leave first. I will apologize for today's misunderstanding next time I have a chance."
Qi Mingxuan was relieved. Su Xuan didn't have an aggressive personality. It was Su Xuan's character to accept the soft and not the tough.
"Master Qi has worked hard today. The Imperial Medical Office is located in the most heavily guarded place in the palace. I don't think the man in black would be so stupid as to throw himself into a trap. I really haven't seen anything unusual here, so... "
"understand!"
Qi Mingxuan slowly backed away and did not look out again. He retreated to the entrance and waved to Su Xuan before leaving with his people.
Su Xuan closed the door again and turned back to the barrel.
