"Ji only knows some tricks, so he can't be called a miracle doctor."

Ji Linglan could roughly guess the reason for Lin Zhao's hostility towards him, but it was because of the Ping Palace, and he was forced to participate in it.But he didn't think he was wrong, nor did he intend to grovel.

Lin Zhao smiled contemptuously, and said: "The name of Ji Xiao's genius doctor is well-known throughout the capital, not to mention that he is now a guest of the Mausoleum Palace. It is said that he is also with His Highness Mausoleum..."

"Zhaoer!"

Lin Wan'er interrupted Lin Zhao's words, looked at Ji Linglan, and said, "Master Ji, I'm sorry, Zhao'er is young and doesn't know how to behave, so I will discipline her well when I get back. Please forgive me, Mr. Ji."

Although Lin Wan'er made peace with Fu Nanping and became the laughing stock of the upper class in Kyoto, she still walked in and out of people's faces in a graceful manner, which was what Ji Linglan admired the most.

"Mr. Lin is like this, Ji knows it well, but Ji has done nothing wrong, and really doesn't want to be angered. Miss Lin said, Mr. Lin is young, but did you ever think that Ji is about the same age as him? Ji's status is humble, but he is just a grassroots person, so he dare not argue with Mr. Lin, if it is someone else, then it is not necessarily so. What's more, Lingwang Qingyu can be slandered casually?"

If it was usual, Ji Linglan might have laughed it off, but today he was irritable and didn't want to swallow his anger, even if the other party's status was much higher than him.

Lin Zhao looked at Ji Linglan angrily, and said, "You! You are really eloquent!"

"Enough! Lin Zhao, what about your upbringing?" Lin Wan'er turned cold, and said, "Young Master Ji is not wrong, he really shouldn't be implicated."

"Sister, if he hadn't intervened to find out that Lao Shizi Red Xingcao, how could you..."

Lin Wan'er interrupted him again, and said calmly: "Without him, there are others. He was just sucked into the vortex and couldn't help himself, not to mention he didn't frame me."

"Sister, you always think of others like this, but who will think for you?"

Seeing this, Ji Linglan couldn't help but said: "Mr. Lin, those who have been injured don't care what other people say, they only care about the attitude of their family members. You mention this matter again and again, it will only make the scars in Miss Lin's heart, once again. It was uncovered again. Your so-called fight against injustice is to keep reminding her of everything she has experienced before, and it is you who should reflect on her."

"How... how is it possible?" Lin Zhao subconsciously looked at Lin Wan'er.

Lin Wan'er looked back at him, and said: "Zhao'er, Mr. Ji is right, every time you mention this matter, you don't hesitate to rub salt in my wounds. I want to forget this matter and start a new life, instead of being always A reminder of what I've been through."

"Sister, I didn't mean that, I just..."

"I know you feel sorry for me and out of good intentions, so I never said anything." Lin Wan'er looked at Ji Linglan and said gratefully: "Thank you, Young Master Ji, for giving me the courage to speak up."

Ji Linglan shook her head, and said, "Miss Lin understands righteousness deeply, which is admirable!"

Lin Wan'er smiled, turned her gaze to look at Lu Jiu, and said, "Lord Lu, Zhao'er has offended me so much, please don't argue with him, Master Lu."

Lu Jiu said lightly: "Forget it this time, but if there is another time, Lu can only tell the prince truthfully."

"Thank you, Master Lu." Lin Wan'er paused, and then said: "Zhao'er, thank you, Master Lu and Young Master Ji."

Lin Zhao didn't seem to have regained his composure. He looked at Ji Linglan, cupped his hands perfunctorily, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Lu...Master Ji is not to blame."

Although Lin Zhao said it reluctantly, he lowered his head after all. Ji Linglan didn't intend to make things difficult for the child, and said, "If that's the case, then we won't disturb Miss Lin's play, let's take a step first."

"Mr. Ji stay here. I have some things I want to talk to Mr. Ji alone. I wonder if Mr. Ji would like to?"

Ji Linglan was taken aback, and couldn't think of anything to talk about between them, but she nodded and said, "Miss Lin, please."

Lin Zhao frowned slightly, and said, "Sister, what are you talking about with him, besides, this is still in the mountains, if someone sees it, there will be some rumors."

"The clean is clear, I don't care what other people say, let alone with my current reputation, I don't care about this long ago, unless you think the same as them."

"How is it possible! My sister is the best in my heart, no one can compare to her."

Lin Wan'er ignored Lin Zhao, nodded slightly at Lu Jiu, and walked out first.

Seeing this, Ji Linglan followed and walked out, while Lu Jiu and Lin Zhao stayed where they were, waiting for the two to go away before following them not too far away.

Lu Jiu looked at Lin Zhao, and asked blankly, "What did Young Master Lin say just now? Are there any rumors in the capital?"

Lin Zhao was taken aback for a moment, and seemed to realize that he was about to make a mistake, and said with some guilt: "No, I was just talking nonsense just now, Mr. Lu must not take it seriously."

"If not, does that mean Mr. Lin will become the source of rumors?"

Lin Zhao's expression changed immediately when he heard the words, and he hurriedly said, "No, I didn't, Master Lu, please don't wrong me."

"What is the truth, Mr. Lin needs to give an explanation."

"Didn't Mr. Lu promise my sister not to blame me just now? How can you go back on your word?"

"What I just agreed to is the matter of Mr. Lin innocently venting his anger on Alan, not about the matter of the prince, so it is better for Mr. Lin to make it clear."

Seeing Lu Jiu's serious expression, Lin Zhao's face immediately collapsed, and he said falteringly: "There are indeed some rumors spreading during this period."

"What rumors?"

"Yes...it's about His Royal Highness Ling Ling and Ji Linglan. They all said that they are very close, and they also said..." Seeing Lu Jiu frown, he stopped in shock.

"What else?"

Lin Zhao said hesitantly: "I also said that His Highness Ling is good... Good Longyang, Ji Linglan is actually His Highness Ling's male favorite."

Lu Jiu frowned, and her face became gloomy.

Lin Zhao quickly defended himself and said, "Lord Lu, these are all rumors in the market, and I heard them too, and I didn't make them up."

"Maybe you heard it, but you are also a part of spreading rumors." After finishing speaking, Lu Jiu stopped talking to him, and walked towards Ji Linglan faster.

Lin Zhao choked, blushing in shame, looked at the people who were going further and further away, and followed closely behind.

Ji Linglan thoughtfully blocked the low branches for Lin Wan'er, and asked, "Miss Lin, I don't know why you are looking for me?"

Lin Wan'er turned her head to look at Ji Linglan, and said, "Young Master Ji, I would like to ask, when did you meet King Ping?"

Ji Linglan frowned slightly, and then replied: "The first time I met His Highness Prince Ping was in the palace, and I was ordered to cooperate with King Mausoleum to investigate the truth of Concubine Lin Gui's death."

"March?" Lin Wan'er was thoughtful, she was silent for a while, and said, "Does Master Ji know what King Ping is thinking?"

"Ji doesn't quite understand what Miss Lin means."

Lin Wan'er smiled, and said: "One time when I went into and out of King Ping's study, I accidentally saw a portrait, which was painted on of Mr. Ji, and the signature was signed at the beginning of March."

"Early March?"

Ji Linglan knew in her heart that this was probably the time when Fu Nanping passed through.

"Yes, it's the beginning of March. If you and King Ping met for the first time in the middle of March, why would he have your portrait?" Lin Wan'er was always speaking calmly, making it impossible to see any other emotions.

"Sorry Miss Lin, I don't know the reason, but I can answer you with certainty, His Highness Prince Ping and I did meet for the first time in the middle of March."

Lin Wan'er nodded noncommittally, and said: "Although the marriage between me and Prince Ping was ordered by the emperor, it is also my favorite. It can also be said that all the ladies in the capital are looking forward to marrying him. Before we got married, he was gentle and considerate to me. At that time, I felt that I was the happiest woman in the world."

Lin Wan'er stopped in her tracks, staring blankly at the branches in front of her, apparently lost in memories.Ji Linglan stood quietly by the side without disturbing her.

After a while, Lin Wan'er came back to her senses, and said: "Knowing people, knowing faces but not knowing the heart, painting a tiger's skin is hard to paint bones. I claim to be very smart, but I can't escape being blinded by love, and I can't tell right from wrong, good from evil. I used to be gentle, considerate, and vulnerable to power, just like those sad women in the palace, I have become a victim of power after all."

These words have been pressed in Lin Wan'er's heart for a long time, but no one can tell them, but today she said them without any scruples in front of this man with whom she only had a relationship, probably because of what he said before, he Really understand her pain.

"Miss Lin, you are free now, and you can start your life again."

"Start your own life again?" Lin Wan'er murmured these words softly, and then said with a wry smile: "How do I start? Do you know what people outside say about me?"

"Marriage is not everything for a woman. Ms. Lin is so young and has a long life. There are many things you can do. There is no need to trap yourself in the backyard of a rich family. A woman can also become an eagle soaring in the sky, not just Be a canary in a cage."

"Eagle?" Lin Wan'er lowered her eyes thoughtfully, and after a long while, she raised her head to look at Ji Linglan again. There was light in her dead eyes, and she smiled at Ji Linglan and said, "Thank you very much." Master Ji!"

Ji Linglan cupped her hands in return, and said, "Miss Lin, you are welcome."

Lin Wan'er reminded in a low voice: "Master Ji, Prince Ping seems to have coveted you, you still need to be careful."

Ji Linglan's eyes flickered, and she said, "Why did Miss Lin say that?"

"I have been married to him for three years. If there is anyone who knows him best in this world, it is me. Not to mention the portrait, just look at the way he looks at you, and you will know it is wrong."

"Thank you, Ms. Lin, for reminding me. I will definitely pay more attention."

"Master Ji, there are some rumors about you, I think it's better to pay attention."

Ji Linglan suddenly remembered what Lin Zhao hadn't said before, frowned slightly, and said, "What are the rumors, I would like to hear the details."

Lin Wan'er said bluntly: "It is rumored that King Ling and Young Master Ji are too close, and they are Prince Ling's pets in the palace."

Ji Linglan's expression changed, and she said, "Thank you, Ms. Lin, for letting me know."

Lin Wan'er said with a smile: "Mr. Ji, you don't have to be polite. To meet Mr. Ji today, and to have a word from you, is a very lucky thing in my life. I'm reciprocating."

"Miss Lin, excuse me, what is your relationship with Mrs. Lin?"

Lin Wan'er was startled, obviously not following Ji Linglan's train of thought, but she quickly came to her senses and said, "Master Lin is my master."

Ji Linglan's eyes lit up, and she asked immediately, "Then Miss Lin's embroidery is from Master Lin's true biography?"

Lin Wan'er smiled modestly, and said: "I am not comparable to the master, and I have only learned five or six points of the master's skills."

"To be honest, Ms. Lin, I am currently ordering a piece of clothing. The embroiderer's skills are limited. I am a little worried that the pattern requested by the customer cannot be done well. I wonder if I can ask Ms. Lin to help. Don't worry, Ms. Lin, I will definitely do it again after the matter is completed. Thanks."

"Custom-made clothes? Master Ji also opened a tailor shop?" Lin Wan'er seemed a little surprised.

"That's right. When I was in Yongning Town, I found a few embroiderers with good craftsmanship, and I have been making clothes for customers. It can be regarded as an extra way of life for myself."

"Based on the relationship between Young Master Ji and His Highness Mausoleum, there should be no need for this." Seeing Ji Linglan's expression changed, Lin Wan'er quickly explained: "Sorry, I didn't mean to offend."

"Miss Lin also thinks I'm King Ling's male favourite?"

Lin Wan'er calmly explained: "I didn't mean that. There are many capable people and strange people under the mausoleum king's account. It is said that they all have a lot of monthly money. In addition to Mr. Ji's medical skills, there should be no need to make garments, which can't be put on the table. .”

"Everyone has their own strengths. As long as they are reasonable and legal, they should be respected. I complete the work according to the customer's requirements. I don't cut corners or cut corners. Every penny I earn is clean. I don't think it's impossible to make ready-made clothes. business." Ji Linglan paused, and asked, "Miss Lin, why do you want to worship Master Lin as your teacher?"

Lin Wan'er looked at Ji Linglan in a daze. She begged everyone Lin to accept her as an apprentice desperately because she wanted to make clothes for Fu Nanping and her children for four seasons after they got married.

Seeing that Lin Wan'er's eyes were no longer calm, Ji Linglan said aloud: "If you can support yourself with your own skills, then you won't be underestimated. This is also a way out for yourself."

After Lin Wan'er was silent for a while, she suddenly raised the corners of her mouth and said, "Master Ji, you are really different. I will help you. If the guest has any requests, please ask Mr. Ji to tell me in detail."

Ji Linglan and Lin Wan'er narrated the guest's request in detail, and the two discussed it enthusiastically. Lu Jiu and Lin Zhao, who were not far away, frowned, curious about what they said.

"Since returning home, my sister has never smiled sincerely, and she is not as radiant as she is now. What did Ji Linglan say to my sister?" Lin Zhao looked at Lu Jiu, his curiosity reached its peak.

"I don't know." Lu Jiu answered simply and neatly.

Lin Zhao's expression froze, and he continued to look at the two people not far away, and said, "Lord Lu, Ji Linglan's medical skills are said to be miraculous, is it true?"

"Alan does know some medical skills."

Lin Zhao curled his lips and said, "That's just a rumor. Let me just say, he's only 17 years old, how could he have such good medical skills."

Lu Jiu looked at Lin Zhao and said, "Young Master Lin is seventeen, can he know medicine, can he do an autopsy, and have he solved any criminal cases?"

Lin Zhao's face turned red from choking. At the same age, apart from reading a few more books, he didn't even seem to have any skills.Lin Zhao shut his mouth resentfully, and vowed secretly in his heart that he must learn from a famous teacher when he goes back, and he cannot let this stinky boy compare to him.

Without Ji Linglan's knowledge, he unintentionally created two genius-level characters for Fu Guo.

After discussing with Ji Linglan, Lin Wan'er lost her mind about playing, and was only thinking about how to fulfill Ji Linglan's request. After agreeing with Ji Linglan to hand in the sample in a few days, she took Lin Zhao down the mountain.

Lu Jiu couldn't help asking curiously: "What did Ah Lan and Miss Lin talk about?"

Ji Linglan replied truthfully: "Miss Lin is an apprentice of Master Lin, I would like to ask her for a favor."

Lu Jiu nodded, although she was still a little curious, she didn't ask any more questions.He knew Ji Linglan well, if he wanted to speak, he would have made it clear just now, and he would not wait for him to ask.

The two of them chatted one after another, and within half a day, they climbed to the top of the mountain and sat down with the help of a big tree. Ji Linglan panted and said, "Brother Lu, do you still remember that we climbed Xiliu Mountain?" ?"

Lu Jiu raised the corners of his lips slightly, and said, "It's vivid in my mind."

"At that time, I was too weak. Before I reached the top of the mountain, my feet hurt unbearably. I wanted to hold on, but was discovered by Brother Lu. In the end, Brother Lu carried me up the mountain." It was three years ago, but it is still so fresh when I think about it now.

Lu Jiu also recalled the Liaoyuan case three years ago, saying: "At that time, Ah Lan was only 14 years old, but his courage and wisdom were beyond the reach of others."

"Brother Lu, if you praise me again, I'm going to blush."

"I'm telling the truth, and I'm not exaggerating at all. Without you, I don't know how many people will die before the Liaoyuan case can be completed."

The smile on Ji Linglan's face faded, and she said: "Time flies, time flies so fast."

Lu Jiu sat next to Ji Linglan and said, "Three years have passed in the blink of an eye."

Ji Linglan asked casually, "How old is Brother Lu? Why isn't he married yet?"

"The current situation is changing rapidly, and it is uncertain whether there will be a future. I don't want to delay others. I will talk about other things after it stabilizes."

"Then Brother Lu has a girl he likes?"

"Not yet."

Thinking of Lu Jiu's busyness, Ji Linglan felt relieved, and said, "Brother Lu, when the situation stabilizes, you should take a long vacation. Since we met, you have been busy every day, and you have never seen you take a break. .”

"How come? In Yongning Town for more than a year, it was equivalent to being on vacation every day."

Ji Linglan was startled, and then asked, "Have you ever thought about resigning from office and going back to the countryside?"

"Thought about it, in Yongning Town for more than a year, this is what I think about the most. It's just that the master needs me, and I can't leave."

Ji Linglan said with emotion: "My lord is really lucky to have you subordinates."

Lu Jiu stood up, came to the edge of the cliff, and said, "Alan, come and have a look."

Ji Linglan walked over as she said, looking at the scenery under the cliff, the scattered houses in the distance, the spacious and orderly streets, and the majestic and majestic palace.

"Standing here can overlook the whole of Kyoto."

Looking at the magnificent scene in front of him, Ji Linglan took a deep breath, and the depression in her heart dissipated a lot, and said with emotion: "It turns out that Kyoto is like this, it is really beautiful and spectacular."

"Well, every time I think that I am guarding it, I feel proud in my heart, and the pain I suffered is nothing."

This is the so-called family and country feelings, but although Ji Linglan has been in this world for three years, he still can't find this feeling, coupled with the real identity of his current body, it makes him feel like he is in decline It feels like duckweed without roots.

"Brother Lu, if one day we stand on opposite sides, what will you do?"

Lu Jiu is the person Ji Linglan cares about the most besides Fu Nanling, not only because Lu Jiu has saved his life many times, but also because Lu Jiu has been by his side like an elder brother for three years. After careful calculation, Lu Jiu stayed with him The longest one.

Lu Jiu looked at Ji Linglan, thought carefully for a while, and said, "If it's a matter of family and country importance, I won't show mercy."

Ji Linglan was startled, then smiled and said, "This is the brother Lu I know."

The two of them didn't talk anymore. Now the top of the mountain overlooks the capital in the distance. Such a huge building complex can be seen at a glance. People can't help admiring the greatness of manpower.

An hour later, the two went down the mountain. It happened to be noon, and they settled down in a tea shed at the foot of the mountain. They ordered two bowls of tea, two catties of scallion pancakes, two catties of sauced meat, and a plate of pickles. They ate slowly. with.

Ji Linglan said calmly: "Brother Lu, I may have to leave."

Lu Jiu paused her hands, looked up at Ji Linglan, and said, "Why?"

"Brother Lu should have heard about the rumors in the capital." With Lu Jiu's prudence, he would definitely ask Lin Zhao's unfinished remarks, especially concerning Fu Nanling.

Lu Jiu reassured: "The master will deal with those rumors, don't you have to worry?"

"Before I bumped into Pang Li, he said something to me. I didn't understand it very well at the time, but now I think it through. He was warning me that the emperor already knew about my relationship with the prince, which made me a little self-aware. , don’t stop the prince from accepting the concubine, or you will bear the consequences.”

"Pang Li?" Lu Jiu couldn't help frowning, and said, "Is that the time you met at the gate of the Green Bamboo Garden?"

"Yes. As far as the current situation is concerned, it is the best choice for me to leave, so that the prince can achieve great things smoothly."

"Alan, you should understand how important you are to the master. If you leave, the master will definitely not be able to accept it."

Ji Linglan looked up at Lu Jiu, and said, "Brother Lu, has he ever thought about my situation?"

Lu Jiu looked at Ji Linglan silently. For three years, he had known Ji Linglan. Although he was usually gentle with others, as if he didn't care about anything, he was actually proud in his bones.Not to mention him, even if it was any man with a bit of self-respect, he would not be willing to be called someone's favorite man.What's more, now that Fu Lianchao knew about the relationship between the two, there was no guarantee that he would not send someone to kill Ji Linglan for the sake of the royal reputation.

"It's fine to leave temporarily, and come back when the situation is stable. Where is Ah Lan planning to go?"

"It's not decided yet." Ji Linglan lowered his head and ate the sauced meat on the plate. In fact, he had already decided to follow Princess Yaohua to Linguo. After all, it was Yuanshen's hometown and had his parents. No matter what He is going.

"Then did you tell the master about this?"

"Brother Lu thinks if I bring it up, will he let me go?"

"Alan intends to leave without saying goodbye?" Lu Jiu frowned.

"Didn't I already talk to Brother Lu? It's not like I'm leaving without saying goodbye." Ji Linglan looked at Lu Jiu and smiled, and said, "Brother Lu, I hope you don't want to tell the prince about this."

There was a wry smile on the corner of Lu Jiu's mouth, and he said, "Should I be happy that you trust me, or should I complain that you handed over the mess to me?"

"Brother Lu has always treated me like an elder brother, please forgive me one more time."

Naturally, Ji Linglan wouldn't leave the mess to Lu Jiu, he wouldn't let Lu Jiu bear Fu Nanling's anger because of him, it was just a joke to say so.

"Alan, when do you plan to leave?"

"It's not decided yet, but it's coming soon, and it's only in the last few days."

"Alan, what kind of feelings do you have for Master?" Lu Jiu asked straightforwardly.

Ji Linglan was startled, and said truthfully, "I like it."

"The kind of liking a man has for a woman?"

Ji Linglan nodded and said: "Brother Lu, sometimes even if two people are in love, they may not be able to be together, let alone him and me. There are too many distances between us. If we forcibly join together the gap we crossed, it is very likely that we will never be able to recover."

Lu Jiu naturally understood the meaning of Ji Linglan's words, but he was a little surprised that Ji Linglan was the sober one between him and Fu Nanling.

Lu Jiu looked at Ji Linglan and asked seriously, "Alan, have you left and don't want to come back?"
