Journey To the World of Film and Television

  Chapter 176 Can you call me brother?

Back at the restaurant, Gao Yao looked at Yi Xiaochuan who was still looking gloomy, with regret flashing in his eyes, stepped forward and patted his arm, smiled gently at Xiaoyue who was startled beside him, and said softly: "Miss Xiaoyue, we Let's go to the backyard to apply medicine to you first."

  Xiaoyue nodded subconsciously, followed Gao Yao and took two steps, turned her head to look at Yi Xiaochuan whose face was sinking like water, opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything to comfort him.

  When I came to the backyard, the gazebo in the courtyard was empty, except for a box of wound medicine on the table, Cui Wenzi, who was drinking in the pavilion just now, had disappeared.

Gao Yao had known her for many years, he picked up the wound medicine and sniffed it lightly, then looked at the letter next to the wound medicine, and after confirming that it was correct, he handed the wooden box to Xiaoyue and said, "Master Cui has something to do at the moment. Let’s leave first, this is the wound medicine he has prepared and the dosage, it will take as short as three to five days and as long as ten days or so, and your appearance will return to its original state.”

  Xiaoyue held the wooden box as if she was holding a life-saving straw. She didn't know whether to trust this drunk old man outside the palace, but right now, she had no choice but to trust her.

  Seeing the renewed look in Xiaoyue's eyes, Gao Yao is also quite relieved.

From the corner of the eye, I saw Yi Xiaochuan with a strong smile on his face. Gao Yao recalled the contents of the letter, so he quietly pulled Yi Xiaochuan aside, and said with a smile: "Xiaochuan, Doctor Cui said in his letter that he also has something to ask you, and he wants you to wait a few days If nothing else, go to the restaurant yesterday to look for him."

"Why is he looking for me?" Yi Xiaochuan frowned slightly, took the letter in Gao Yao's hand, flipped through it and said, "It's obviously just the distance between the front and back yards of the restaurant, things that can be explained face to face in two minutes, have to It's so mysterious."

As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of footsteps coming from outside the courtyard, and Zhou Ji and Lu Zhisusu came from the front hall, and the servants behind them were still holding gift boxes, large and small, which filled the whole place in a short while. stone table.

"Naturally, extraordinary people do extraordinary things. This Cui Wenzi is not ordinary. Since I must have something important to find you." Zhou Ji stepped into the courtyard, glanced at Xiaoyue, and walked straight to the two people who were whispering in the corner .

   "Are you a rabbit? Are your ears so bright?"

  Gao Yao was in a good mood, rolled his eyes at Zhou Ji, and after greeting Lu Zhi and Su Su, he couldn't help complaining.

Usually, Yi Xiaochuan would still show a polite smirk, but he was a little gloomy after being hit repeatedly in the past few days, but now he couldn't even squeeze out the most basic forced smile, and just nodded slightly to the three of them, counting Tsukuru said hello.

  After a few words of politeness, Gao Yao looked at the gift boxes piled up on the table, and asked in confusion, "It's not a festival today, why did you buy so many things? They're all for me?"

   "You have a good idea." Zhou Ji gave a high-handed look, and pouted at Lu Zhi beside him.

"These things are all prepared for Miss Xiaoyue." Lu Zhi covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Susu heard that she will live in a restaurant for a period of time, and thinks that you are a man and single, how do you know about girls? What do you need at home? So I dragged my husband and I to prepare these gifts early in the morning, so we came a little late."

   "Thanks to the two sisters-in-law for your trouble." Gao Yao showed a touch of emotion, but also asked with some doubts, "But the palace just sent someone to send Miss Xiaoyue here, how did you know?"

  Zhou Ji smiled inexplicably, raised his eyebrows and said: "Is there any need to think about it? You have already asked for someone, how can the one in the palace refuse?"

Gao Yao followed suit with a laugh, and said somewhat complacently: "Of course, Your Majesty conquered six countries with a million troops, and I can conquer Your Majesty with two large spoons. He even appointed a team of royal chefs to learn from me this morning." cooking."

  Yi Xiaochuan was listening to the conversation between the two, and felt that he was like an extra person, just standing beside him felt a sense of incompatibility.

  Noticing that Yi Xiaochuan remained silent, Gao Yao patted him on the back and smiled at Zhou Ji and Lu Zhisusu, "By the way, you haven't seen Miss Xiaoyue yet, have you? Today is just the time to get to know her."

Susu is the most careful. From the moment she entered the yard, she noticed the woman with tulle in the gazebo. Although she looked down on the specific expression, she could tell from the awkward standing posture of the other party and the movement of holding the wooden box to protect her chest. This girl named Xiaoyue doesn't want to meet everyone in her current appearance.

  So quietly tugged on Xia Zhou Ji's sleeves, and whispered softly: "Suddenly remembered that there are some important matters in the house that need to be dealt with urgently, or should we wait another day?"

  Zhou Ji gave Gao Yao a look, and said with a smile: "The coming day is long, we will visit again in a few days."

Gao Yao blinked, turned his head to look at Xiaoyue, gradually understood Zhou Ji's meaning, and suddenly said: "It's because I didn't think carefully. Since you have something else, I won't be able to keep you. I'll put it on another day." I will go to the mansion to invite you to the banquet."

  Zhou Ji nodded slightly, took Lu Zhi and Su Su to say goodbye and left, Xiaoyue bowed and did not stand up until she watched the three of them leave the hospital.

  It was getting late, and Xiaoyue, who had applied the wound medicine, went to bed early, and Ying Zheng in the palace was still reviewing the memorials sent from all over the country.

  In the past, he would read more than a hundred bamboo slips every day. Now the rice paper of the Lu family in Pei County has gradually replaced bamboo slips and silk handkerchiefs, and has become the mainstream of writing documents in the court.

  Opened his mouth and yawned, Ying Zheng closed a folder, looked outside the hall, frowned and said, "What time is it?"

  The attendant bowed his head and saluted, "Report to Your Majesty, it's two more watches."

  Ying Zheng yawned again, propped his forehead and said, "Go ahead and sleep with Yu Meiren tonight."

   On the other side, Yi Xiaochuan hurried back to the palace before the palace gate was closed, and received an order from the **** to transfer to the imperial servant.

The ranks in the palace are roughly divided into stewards, masters, supervisors, and general managers. It is only a matter of going out to the palace, and suddenly they change from the lowest **** in the palace to the imperial servant, which is equivalent to crossing two ranks. Supervisors are the same.

   This surprised Yi Xiaochuan. After asking around, he found out that it was because His Majesty read that he and Boss Gao from the First Floor of the World were fellow villagers, so he was transferred to the Imperial Palace.

  Hearing the news, Yi Xiaochuan had mixed feelings.

  In the side hall, his nameplate is still hanging on the highest point of countless nameplates. Becoming the emperor's servant means that he has taken a big step away from his desired goal, but he can't be happy in his heart.

  Especially knowing that he could take this step, it turned out to be a favor from Gao Yao.

   Repeated setbacks once again clouded Yi Xiaochuan's heart.

  Suddenly, Yi Xiaochuan thought of Princess Yushu again.

  Xiaoyue left the palace and lived in the first floor of the world. In the current palace, the only one who can talk to him is Princess Yushu, who is also lonely.

  Yi Xiaochuan changed into the bodyguard uniform by accident, and walked towards the side hall where Yushu was again.

  The sky is gloomy and the moonlight is dim.

  Perhaps it was the approaching rainstorm, and for a while, the dull air made people feel a little breathless.

  Yu Shu stood in front of the window somewhat disappointed, paced for a long time looking at the dark night outside, and then walked out of the room.

   Go through the corridor and come to the floating platform in the water.

   This is her favorite place, as if separated from everything around by a winding and long path, the small floating platform under her feet is the only pure land in the entire side hall.

  Looking down at the water surface, there is no moon in the water, but there is a familiar reflection gradually walking in from the dark and quiet water.

  When Yu Shu saw a familiar figure coming from the water corridor, his heart that had been suspended for a long time was finally relieved.

  Last night, she waited in front of the palace for a long time, but she didn't see this 'guard' come back. She thought it was an accident that the other party snatched the Ye Mingzhu from the imperial army.

   She was still feeling disappointed all day because of this.

  Seeing Yi Xiaochuan's figure again now, Yushu let out a long sigh of relief, and said with a complicated expression: "I thought you were dead."

  Yi Xiaochuan was taken aback when he heard the words, and smiled wryly: "Are you caring about me?"

   "Yes." Yu Shu said disappointedly, "There are many people in the palace, but very few people can talk. You are the only one."

  Why am I not?

   The corner of Yi Xiaochuan's mouth turned bitter.

  He is no longer a stunned young man who just traveled through time. Except for Xiang Yu, Zhou Ji, Gao Yao, he never told anyone else about the mobile phone.

  The guard's attire is like a mask. It is precisely because Yu Shu doesn't know who he is that he dares to reveal his secret to the other party.

Seeing that Yi Xiaochuan was silent, Yushu turned to ask: "We can find another way about Ye Mingzhu. His Majesty will come to stay with me later, and I will try to ask about Ye Mingzhu's whereabouts. A turning point."

  Yi Xiaochuan's heart suddenly twitched. He and Yushu were not even friends, but seeing a woman who surprised him was dodged by others, it was indeed an indescribable sense of discomfort.

   "The matter of Ye Mingzhu has been resolved." Yi Xiaochuan looked up at Yu Shu, with a complicated expression, "Since you entered the palace, His Majesty has never touched you, why do you want to stay overnight?"

  Yushu's face was also a little heavy and he said: "After all, the Ye Mingzhu is my dowry. Your Majesty probably wants to 'compensate' me in this way?"

   "Compensation? Is this compensation?" Yi Xiaochuan clenched his fists tightly, suppressing his anger and said, "What about you? You also regard this as compensation?"

  "I" Yushu's mouth was bitter, and he sighed: "Marrying into the palace is my own choice, everything is for the future of Tu'an"

   "Can you sacrifice your personal happiness for Tu'an's future?" Yi Xiaochuan's complexion became more and more ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "If it was your own choice, why are you in such pain now?"

  Why is Yushu willing to marry Daqin far away?

  Looking at Yi Xiaochuan who was filled with righteous indignation for her, Yu Shu shook his head and sighed: "This is the end, I have no choice."

  Yi Xiaochuan was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "No, you can try to resist."

   "Resist?" Yu Shu smiled wryly, "No one can stop His Majesty's will. Disobeying him may bring disaster to Tu'an."

  Yi Xiaochuan looked straight at Yushu, and said in a deep voice, "What if we can prevent him from venting his anger on Tu'an?"

  Yu Shu frowned slightly, hesitantly said: "What method?"

   "Fake illness." Yi Xiaochuan said in a deep voice with a flash of light in his eyes.

   That night.

  The news of Yumei's sudden illness spread throughout the harem. After being consulted by the imperial doctor, it was said that it was an acute cold. Therefore, Ying Zheng had no choice but to cancel his plan to stay overnight.

  Illness can't be delayed for too long, even Yu Shu himself, the reason for following Yi Xiaochuan's suggestion is because he has suppressed the rebellion for so long.

  However, what everyone didn't expect was that the sudden wind and cold spread quickly, and it swept the entire Jade Beauty Hall in just a few days.

   After Ying Zheng learned that the wind-cold infection was comparable to the plague, he immediately ordered the palace to be sealed off, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

   This time, even Yi Xiaochuan, the instigator, was dumbfounded. How could he have expected this result when he saw the gate locked, and everyone passing by with their noses covered, fearing to avoid the Hall of Jade Beauty?

  When panic broke out in the palace, the No. 1 Tianxia Building outside the palace was full of laughter.

  Cui Wenzi's medical skills are excellent, and the wound medicine he made is also quite effective. In less than ten days, the two burns on Xiaoyue's face have completely disappeared, and even her complexion is much better than before.

   Lu Zhi and Su Su also met Xiaoyue formally when the scar on her face had improved a lot.

  Especially when she saw that Xiaoyue's complexion was more delicate than before, she was even more envious, and she was full of praise for this miracle doctor Cui whom she had never seen before.

   On this day, in order to congratulate Xiaoyue for recovering from her scar, Gao Yao specially cooked a table of delicious dishes in the backyard of the restaurant, and invited Zhou Ji's family, Cui Wenzi and Yi Xiaochuan to the table.

  It's a pity that Cui Wenzi disappeared after leaving the letter, and Yi Xiaochuan was also unable to go out due to the epidemic in the palace.

  Drinking to the point of intoxication, Gao Yao looked at Xiaoyue's intact face, his drunken eyes seemed to overlap with Gao Lan, and sat down slumpedly, wiping his tears with his head down.

  Xiaoyue looked at the scene in front of her at a loss, and asked why.

Zhou Ji sighed softly, patted Gao Yao's arm, and explained: "Miss Xiaoyue, you must have known these days. Lao Gao has a younger sister who looks exactly like you. They have been dependent on each other since childhood. My younger sister studied and dropped out of school very early to work, and it was very hard to bring her up. For Lao Gao, her younger sister is everything to him.”

  Zhou Ji narrated what he knew about Gao Yao and Gao Lan's experience. The three women present were all teary-eyed and looked at Gao Yao with emotion.

  Zhou Ji sighed and said: "Nowadays we are far away from home, brothers and sisters are separated, and I am afraid that we will never see each other again in our lifetime. Whenever he sees you, he will think of his sister. It is difficult for him. I hope the girl will be more considerate."

  Since the fall of the Chu Kingdom, Xiaoyue has been arrested and taken to Xianyang to be the lowest court lady. She has gone through hardships for six years and is not humane, but she is also separated from her relatives and does not know when she will see her again. The situation is exactly the same as that of Gao Yao.

Xiaoyue, who sympathized with her, cried pear blossoms with rain, but Gao Yao held back the collapsed tear glands, reached out to wipe the tears on her face, squeezed out a wrinkled smiling face, and said with sobs: "Miss Xiaoyue, I .Can I ask you one thing?"
