Although Qin Ming is eager to return to his home in Lantian County, he still has to abide by the basic etiquette. After all, he is now living in Cheng Mansion.
So after washing up, he asked his maid to take him to see the two brothers Xiong Daxiong.
After a while, Qin Ming arrived at the door of Xiong Da's room. Before he entered the room, Qin Ming heard the sound of Xiong Da and Xiong Ergui crying and howling in the room.
My heart tightened, and I quickly walked into the house, where I saw two brothers, Xiong Da and Xiong Er, lying on the couch together, howling incessantly.
A maid stood beside each of them, applying ointment to them. Mrs. Cui sat aside, wiping her tears with a handkerchief, and telling the two maids to be gentle when applying the ointment.
Upon seeing this, Qin Ming hurried forward and saluted Mrs. Cui:
"My nephew meets Aunt Cheng."
After speaking, he pointed at Xiong Da and Xiong Er and asked:
"Auntie, why are Chumo and the others injured?"
When Xiong Da and Xiong Er heard Qin Ming's voice, they immediately stopped howling. Cheng Chumo said before Mrs. Cui could speak:
"Brother Ming, are you here? Did you sleep well last night? Oh, brother, I made you laugh. The injuries suffered by the eldest brother and Chu Liang were caused by a fall on horseback early in the morning. They look serious, but in fact it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter."
Cheng Chuliang also echoed:
"Yes, it was just a fall while riding a horse. It has nothing to do with my father. Brother Ming, please don't think too much about it."
Mrs. Cui only felt angry and funny when she heard this, but she knew that her two sons were good-looking and would not expose it.
When Qin Ming heard this, he immediately figured out the whole story. It was most likely because of himself that the two brothers suffered.
Thinking of this, Qin Ming felt guilty, so he stood up, sat on the couch, and said to Mrs. Cui:
"My nephew also knows a little bit about medical skills. Why don't I let my nephew do it?"
After speaking, without waiting for Mrs. Cui's reply, she took the ointment from the maid's hand.
Just as he was about to apply medicine to the two brothers, Qin Ming saw blood oozing from certain places on the two brothers' bodies.
Seeing this, Qin Ming couldn't help but be shocked. Uncle Cheng's attack was too cruel. He silently apologized to the two brothers and put down the ointment in his hand.
...
In the next half hour, Qin Ming used alcohol to wash the wounds of the two brothers again, and then explained the effects of alcohol to Mrs. Cui.
Only then did the two brothers apply ointment again and bandage the wounds again.
At first, Mrs. Cui thought Qin Ming was just talking casually about his medical skills.
But later, watching him clean the wounds of the two men skillfully with wine, and bandage them skillfully, I finally became convinced that Qin Ming was not just talking, but he really knew medical skills.
Qin Ming was very tired after this operation.
But it was also rewarding and profitable, and Mrs. Cui had a good relationship with Xiong Da and Xiong Er.
After Qin Ming treated the wounds of the two brothers, he told the maid some things to pay attention to when changing the dressing.
Only then did they bid farewell to the three of them. Mrs. Cui, Xiong Da, and Xiong Er tried to persuade them to stay, but to no avail, they could only watch Qin Ming leave reluctantly.
But after this incident, the two brothers Cheng Chumo recognized Qin Ming even more. After all, Qin Ming was the first friend to bandage their brothers since they were young.
So both of them secretly decided that even if they were beaten by their father again, they would definitely take Brother Qin to Baihua Pavilion again if they had the chance, and they would definitely pay for the two most expensive girls in Baihua Pavilion to accompany Brother Ming once. Xing made up for the shortcomings of last night to Brother Ming.

At this time,
Qin Ming and his party rode out of Chang'an City. Not far from Chunming Gate, Qin Da suddenly drove his horse to Qin Ming and said:
"Sir, there are two people behind us. They have been following us."
Qin Ming raised his eyebrows when he heard this, pointed to a tea shop not far ahead and said:
"Tell the others that we will take a short break at the tea shop in front."
"good."
After a while, the tea shop arrived. Qin Ming and his party dismounted one after another, leaving a few people to look at the horses. Qin Ming entered the tea shop with Qin Da and others.
A few people chose a small table next to them and sat down, and ordered a few more bowls of tea. Qin Ming then looked at Qin Da and asked:
"Ada, when did you discover that someone was following us?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Da patted Zhang Wenyuan beside him and said:
"Sir, this guy Wen Yuan discovered it first. Let him tell you."
Qin Ming was stunned when he heard this and looked at Zhang Wenyuan. He remembered this person. This person was Zhang Wenyuan who followed his grandfather to Chang'an during the famine last year.
At that time, his grandfather passed away on the road, and Qin Ming arranged for him to be buried. Later, the boy wanted to repay himself, so he was assigned to Zhuangzi.
Zhang Wenyuan is living very well in Qinjiazhuang these days, and has been working in the guard team.
And after the New Year's Eve party, Zhang Wenyuan, like the other orphans in Zhuangzi, had a stronger sense of belonging to Qinjiazhuang.
They have regarded the Qin Mansion as their own home, and they have vowed to work well for the young master and repay his kindness throughout their lives.
So when he came out this time, he kept paying attention to the movements of the people around him.
This is also why he can detect someone following him.
Upon hearing Qin Da's words, Zhang Wenyuan straightened up and said to Qin Ming:
"Sir, since we left Duke Lu's Mansion, I have been followed by two people. At first I thought they just happened to be with us. But I just discovered that we have already left Chang'an City, and they are still following us. Behind us, there is something strange, so I think they are following us on purpose."
Qin Ming nodded slightly and said:
"Please show me where the person following us is now."
Zhang Wenyuan heard this and said:
"It's on the right hand side of the young master, about forty feet away from us."
When Qin Ming heard this, he looked to his right out of the corner of his eye. Sure enough, a hundred meters away from them, there were two people sitting beside the horse to rest.
Qin Ming thought for a moment and then thought that the other party was probably sent by Changsun Chong to follow him.
We must find a way to get rid of them. Thinking of this, Qin Ming first praised Zhang Wenyuan a few words, and then said to Qin Da:
"Ada, go and tell the others that we will change the route and go to Xinfeng County in a moment. After we get rid of them, we will go back to the house."
Qin Da heard the words and nodded in agreement, then stood up and walked towards a few people watching the horses.
....
After a short rest, they mounted their horses and headed towards Xinfeng County.
Qin Ming made multiple confirmations on the way and confirmed that the two of them were indeed following him.
"That's okay. Take them to Xinfeng County first, mislead their master, and buy yourself some time."
Qin Ming thought silently in his heart.
Half an hour later, Qin Ming and others entered Xinfeng City. Seeing that it was almost noon, Qin Ming led several people to have a meal in a restaurant.
After finishing the meal, Qin Ming smiled and said to Zhang Wenyuan:
"Wenyuan, you guys will work hard and take these two people for a walk in Xinfeng County, and then take them to Weinan County. When we get to Weinan, we will find a way to get rid of them."
Zhang Wenyuan smiled and bowed when he heard this:
"Yes, sir, be careful on the road."
Qin Ming nodded slightly when he heard this, and then Zhang Wenyuan put on Qin Ming's clothes, led a few guards out of the restaurant, and successfully led the followers to Weinan County.
Of course, what Qin Ming didn't know was that even if Qin Ming didn't make such arrangements, it would be difficult for the two people following him to return to Chang'an City.
Because along the way, in addition to the people sent by Changsun Chong to follow him, there were also secret guards sent by Li Yuan.
If Qin Ming hadn't been paying attention to these two people who were following him along the way, the secret guard would have taken action long ago.
