Chapter 345 Li Shishi

When we arrived at Yichun Tower, it was already late. With the riots and yamen runners cleared the ground, the lake tiles that were once full of music and music had already quieted down, and there was no one in the dark.

Cao Hua asked the Hei Yuwei Guard to guard the surroundings and took two doctors into Yichun Tower. The Turtle King was cleaning the somewhat messy hall. Seeing the officers and soldiers sealing the door again, he quickly knelt on the ground to greet him.

Cao Hua went directly to the third floor and, with the introduction of the madam, came outside the room where Li Shishi temporarily lived.

The room was filled with warm lights, two figures were walking around, one of them was sitting, and the silhouette of his side was exposed under the lights. The intermittent voices sounded, with complaints and coaches.

Dongdong--

After knocking on the door twice, the door creaked open, and Mrs. Tang showed her head.

When Mrs. Tang saw Cao Hua at the door, she was stunned for a moment, then showed a flattering smile with a little fear and fear, and knelt down to greet her:

"Oh, Mr. Cao, what wind has blown you..."

"Get up, Miss Shishi was frightened just now and brought the doctor to see."

"this...."

Although Mrs. Tang knelt down, she still blocked the door and said in a little embarrassed manner:

"Shishi has already fallen asleep, why not..."

"Mom, let Mr. Cao come in."

There were sounds in the room, and the sound of rustling clothes.

Mrs. Tang didn't have much to say, so she had to stand up and retreat to the side.

Cao Hua waited outside the door for a while, and after confirming that there was no sound inside, he stepped into the door.

Turning over the gauze screen, I saw a candlestick, with bead curtains interspersed in it, similar to my daughter's boudoir, except that there was a small bed to entertain guests.

Li Shishi was wearing a gauze light skirt and sat in front of the piano platform, as if she had just sat there, and only stood up after seeing Cao Hua.

In addition to the faint fragrance of my daughter, there was also a little smell of medicine left in the room. The window was opened to obviously want to dispel the smell of medicine, but it was useless to be too short.

Huan'er's eyes were a little annoyed, and she secretly glanced at Cao Hua, wanted to speak but stopped, but just walked to the side to make tea.

Cao Hua walked to the small couch next to the window and sat down, raised his hand to let the two doctors come in.

Shishi Li looked as usual, and did not show any discomfort. After seeing the two doctors, he showed some doubts:

"It's a blessing for Mr. Cao, and I'm not seriously injured. There is no need to mobilize others like this."

Cao Hua took the teacup handed by Huan'er: "I saw it just now, but I didn't have a chance to stop it. My shoulders might have been swollen. It would be no good for me to force myself to hold on. Let the doctor see it."

Li Shishi blinked, and saw that he could not hide it from Cao Hua, so he didn't say much. He raised his hand and prepared to untie the gauze light skirt.

Cao Hua almost squirted out a mouthful of tea, quickly raised his hand and coughed:

"Wait...well, I'll go out first."

Li Shishi was just joking, but at this moment he laughed like a silver bell: "Haha...no need, I will go behind the screen, so it won't hinder the young master's eyes."

As he said that, Yingying got up, walked behind the screen, and the two doctors followed in.

A rustling sound rang.

Cao Hua tapped the table with his fingers, but he had no other thoughts. He just looked out the window and explained:

"I used to disguise myself as Su Shi to make money. Miss Shishi helped a lot. I originally wanted to see you, but you could recognize me as soon as I met. My shop business turned bad, and I felt a little sorry for speaking."

Only after wiping the skin behind the screen made a slight sound, and after a moment of silence, calm words came out:

"Mr. Cao is so serious. I am a fair-skinned woman. I admire talented scholars... I used to be a talented man who squeezed me into my door. Suddenly, I met someone who didn't come to an invitation. Naturally, I was a little dissatisfied. After learning that Su Shi was Mr. Cao, I felt relieved."

"oh..."

Cao Hua nodded and took two sips of tea:

"The emperor is interested in Miss Shishi, but Miss Shishi's identity cannot enter the palace. If you want to escape from the brothel, I can find a way to clarify your innocence, well... it can also be regarded as a thank you for your help in the past and today's sacrifice of your life."

"Haha... I saw that my son was so handsome that he was very good at martial arts and had nothing to do, so I protected Xiao Su. The emperor said in person that his son, 'One person can block three hundred iron armor', and I felt that I could definitely save me and sacrifice myself to save me. If the son could not save me, I would definitely not block it..."

Cao Hua shook his head and smiled: "What kind of situation is just now? I really may not be able to save you. No matter what, I owe you a favor."

The screen fell silent, and after a long time, the words started to ring again, but the topic had changed:

"The music of the young master is really good. Whether it is "Liang Zhu" or "Ten Faces", it is a rare and good song."

"I also heard it from other places. I was born with incomplete tone, so how could I compose music?"

There was a rustling sound, and the sound of wearing clothes sounded.

Soon, Li Shishi walked out in neat clothes. Although her expression was as quiet as before, there was a layer of sweat on her forehead, and there was no blood on her cheeks, which obviously caused it to hurt.

"Governor Bing, the girl Shishi's shoulder has been damaged and has a neck bone. She may have to rest for two months before she recovers. Try not to move around in recent days, otherwise it will be easy to leave hidden diseases."

The doctor's eyes were filled with admiration, and he obviously admired a woman's willpower that could endure severe pain and not even breathe.

Cao Hua nodded, not wanting to disturb Li Shishi's rest, so he stood up and prepared to say goodbye.

Li Shishi turned a blind eye to the wounds on her shoulders, still maintaining her former appearance, sat down next to the couch, and said softly:

"Since Mr. Cao is here, please have a cup of tea before leaving. Otherwise, if it is reported, I would think that I am not well-off in the entertainment industry."

When Cao Hua heard this, he had to sit down and brew for a while, but had nothing to say.

Li Shishi did not force himself to serve tea and water, but just sat opposite the small case and said some common polite words, which were lukewarm and born with a sense of closeness.

Cao Hua drank a cup of tea and suddenly asked:

"Duke Zhou? I haven't seen him for a long time."

Li Shishi shook his head and chuckled: "Zhou Lang followed me to the south of the Yangtze River and became the magistrate in Lishui."

Cao Hua nodded: "In the past, Duke Zhou was the young minister of Taichang Temple, and his official position was quite high, but he was indeed a talented person when dealing with poetry, songs and essays all day long. As a parent official, I think he was planning to do something practical."

When talking about Zhou Bangyan, Li Shishi remembered something and frowned slightly:

"When it comes to Zhou Lang, I have something to ask for."

"Oh?" Cao Hua raised his eyebrows: "Is it possible to transfer Zhou Gong to Bian Jing? This is simple..."

"No." Li Shishi smiled shyly and thought: "I went to Jiangnan and stayed in Lishui for a few days to attend Zhou Lang's appointment ceremony. On the day of arrival, I went to the nunnery on the mountain to burn incense...

...I met a down-and-out Taoist on the road. I was planning to give alms, but the Taoist didn't want it...

...In the nunnery, I met an old nun who was very good. I heard that I came to the monk and waited for my lover in the nunnery for a lifetime...

...The next day, I found that the old nun became crazy and the down-and-out Taoist died outside the nunnery, with a lot of holes on his body and a hairpin that could not see the human figure...

...Murder was a big case, so Zhou Lang arrested the old nun, but he also heard that the old nun and a concubine in the palace were distant relatives...

...Zhou Lang just took office and was upright, so he would definitely not be able to commit favoritism and abuse his power. He would severely punish the old nun, but he seemed inhumane and felt a little embarrassed for a while..."

After listening to her, Cao Hua quietly thought about it for a while:

"Lishui...nun...descendant Taoist...is the identity of the deceased found out?"

Li Shishi shook his head: "No one reported the official, the body was beyond recognition, and he could not recognize who it was. Some people suspected that it was the lover who was waiting for the old nun. But he heard that the lover of the old nun was a thief and had been killed, so it became a unsolved case."

Cao Hua suddenly realized that Yang Huiliu ate his old fist. He thought he had been killed on the spot, so he wrote a punishment, but unexpectedly ran back to Lishui.

When Cao Hua heard what happened later, he sighed a little, and didn't know how to evaluate it. He thought about it:

"I will write a letter to Duke Zhou and let the old nun go."

Li Shishi's eyes showed a little gratitude, nodded slightly, and then sighed softly:

"The most pitiful person in the world is always infatuated. I heard the local old man talk about that tragedy... The old nun said those words back then were just to inspire her lover. If she were bolder and directly expressed her feelings, the subsequent tragedy might not have happened..."

Cao Hua shook his head: "There is nothing if, human hearts will not change. If you can kill the whole family of your beloved because of love and hate, even if you escaped the disaster and get along for a long time, there will always be other reasons for the occurrence of things... It can only be said that Yang Huiliu is a mess himself. How could a normal person kill the whole family just by saying a word from his beloved?"

Li Shishi blinked, and it was true that this is true. She looked at Cao Hua, whose heart was completely different from the past, and suddenly chuckled:

"Actually... people's hearts are not going to change. Mr. Cao is an example. If it were last year, I would never imagine that you would come to visit at night..."

Cao Hua smiled: "I used to be so heartless in your eyes?"

"no."

Li Shishi shook his head seriously: "The young master used to kill decisively and do things almost perfectly. When encountering today's things, either leave me and Xiao Su and chase the murderer to avoid leaving any troubles, or stay to comfort me and Xiao Su and make me grateful to you in case of emergencies. Like today, I will send Xiao Su and the prince away first, and then run back to visit me. Well... I seem indecisive and careful..."

Cao Hua's face froze. He thought he was going to praise him for his progress than before, but he didn't expect to say that he was not as good as before.

Li Shishi looked at Cao Hua's expression and laughed out loud with a "sneer":

"However, I think the young master is more like a normal person. In the past, no one could guess the thoughts of the young master. He only knew that a smile would kill people. Although it was very powerful, I had no other thoughts except fear. Now... at least I smiled, I was really laughing, and I dared to say more about what I had or not."

"Haha...I'll just treat it as a compliment..."

Cao Hua was quite helpless.

After all, it was too late, so it was naturally inappropriate to stay in Li Shishi's house. After Cao Hua chatted for a few words, he wrote a letter for Heiyuwei to send it to Pingjiang Mansion, and then got up to say goodbye.

Li Shishi stood up and stood at the window, looking at the group who were leaving, with a faint smile on his lips.

Mrs. Tang only emerged at this time, walked behind Li Shishi, and murmured softly: "I'm quite a bit conscientious. I know to come and visit me. If I don't care, I will marry you at will."

Li Shishi turned around and had a smile on her beautiful cheeks:

"I'm still very accurate in my opinion."
