"I met him once three years ago." Ah, Si paused for a moment, as if recalling something. "At that time, the young master of Medicine King Valley took the young master out to collect herbs, and came to my door to ask for a glass of water." "How do you know it's someone from Medicine King Valley?" "My mother was sick at that time, and the valley master prescribed medicine for her, which was very effective. But later on, we had no money to buy medicine, and my mother passed away..." As the young man spoke, a look of sadness appeared on his face, making people want to comfort him. "Moreover, the three characters 'Medicine King Valley' were embroidered on the green bag that the man carried with him. Although Ah Si had never been to school, my mother had taught him many characters. A,h Si must recognize these characters." The young man paused after he finished speaking and did not say another word. After hearing this, Chang Li thought to himself: Not many people in the world have seen the Medicine King Valley, and I don't know why no portrait has been found for many years. There is a portrait in the master's room that was painted seven years ago. The portrait is not realistic, and after so many years, it may have lost its authenticity. Today's Ah Si said that he had met someone from Yaowang Valley, and maybe he could be of use. "Do you know some martial arts? Can you protect yourself?" Chang Li asked. "I am a country bumpkin. I learned a little bit of self-defense from my father when I was young." Ah Yin replied. But in his heart, he thought: I will beat you up one by one. Chang Li nodded and thought: I won't let the country boy demonstrate his mediocre Kung Fu anymore. I will teach him slowly in the future. He can't fall behind at the critical moment. After deciding to keep Ah Si, they selected two smart and handsome boys. In the end, they chose a boy as black as charcoal, named Erhei. This boy was born with great strength. He said that he could pull a tree as thick as a bowl out of the ground. As he spoke, he was about to pull out a sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the yard. Changli quickly waved his hand to stop him: It is not easy for an osmanthus tree to grow so big. Erhei was very strong and ate a lot. His family could not afford to keep him, so they sold him to the palace so that he could have a full meal. Changli asked Butler Mu to arrange for the people to stay near the prince's residence, in the second-class guard courtyard. To be on the safe side, Chang Li ordered Yan San to go to the suburbs to check if this was true, and sent someone to Taohua County to check Ah Si's family situation. If this were true, seeing that this child behaved and spoke in a measured way, it would not be a bad idea to keep him with the prince for a while and take care of him. Let's not talk about how Changli will arrange to investigate the backgrounds of these people. If there is no problem, then bring them to the prince to serve. Bai Xinyin followed Butler Mu to the second-class guards' quarters. The second-class guards' quarters were equivalent to single dormitories. Although small, they were very clean, and the maids were responsible for cleaning them every day. All supplies were also available. Butler Mu led Bai Xinyin into a room near the courtyard gate. This room was slightly larger, so he let him get familiar with it first. Then he went to make other arrangements. Bai Xiyinyin entered the room and looked around. She lay down and squinted her eyes in thought: Ah Feng asked him to replace Ah Si's identity and enter Prince Rong's mansion. No matter who investigates, they will not find anything. Why did Mo Changli ask her about Medicine King Valley again today? Thinking of this, she felt that she should take the initiative to inquire about it. Where should she go to inquire? Originally thinking of disguising himself, A Feng said, "Leng Xueyi, the female guard beside Mu Yunxiao, is a master of disguise, known as the 'Thousand Faces Enchantress'. Disguise may not escape her eyes, and it will backfire. Besides, there are very few people who know the master, so it is better to show his true face, but..." "Just what?" "But the master has a stunning face, I'm afraid..." "Are you afraid that I'm too ostentatious?" Bai Xinyin asked with a smile. "I dare not..." Xiao Nanfeng lowered his eyelids, and his face turned red. Bai Xinyin has a habit of exercising in the morning, which has not changed for many years. The palace is very large. When Bai Xinyin entered the palace yesterday, he saw an artificial lake in the palace. The circumference of the lake is about two miles. He plans to run ten laps around the lake every morning. The first-class guards of the palace wore black brocade clothes with dark gold patterns and a black dragon-embroidered belt around their waists. The second-class guards wore dark blue and gold brocade clothes with dark blue dragon-embroidered belts around their waists. Although Bai Xinyin is young, he has grown up, about 1.7 meters tall. His body proportions are perfect, and wearing this outfit, he looks fit and heroic. In the early morning, when the light was dim, in Prince Rong's mansion, a handsome young man with his hair tied up high walked towards the lake in the mansion with his long legs facing the morning glow. "Who is that?" "The young guard newly recruited by the palace." "Wow, pinch me, did I meet the fairy brother?" The two little maids got up early and took basins to fetch water, staring straight at the people running towards them. "Hi! Good morning!" Bai Xinyin greeted. "Bang", the basins in the hands of the two maids fell to the ground at the same time. They covered their faces and ran away. Bai Xinyin looked puzzled. Three old women were coming towards us, carrying baskets, probably going out to buy food. "I heard that the prince drank half a bowl of the beef soup I made yesterday. Do you want some today..." The old woman who was speaking looked up and saw Xiyin, her mouth opened like an egg. The other two turned around and immediately became three eggs. "What a handsome boy! I want to catch up with him!" The other two hurriedly pulled him back, as it was more important to buy groceries and cook for the prince. In this way, Bai Xinyin ran ten laps. The lakeside, which was originally deserted in the morning, became much more crowded today. Nan Xing, who disguised herself as a maid and entered the mansion to take care of her master, looked at her master's back as she jogged in the morning and expressed helplessness: Master, I am just a small guard, can you be a little more low-key? On the second day, when Bai Xinyin had packed up and was ready to go jogging by the lake again, he found that there were many new "running friends", even Erhei, who liked to sleep in, got up and joined them. After running for three days, Xiyin found something wrong. At this time, a servant came to pass on a message, asking the four new second-class guards to go to the captain of the guards, Mo Changli. The four of them came to the guard room and met Mo Changli. Mo Changli said expressionlessly, "In an hour, you will go to see the master. When the time comes, you must follow the rules. You are new here, so don't make the master angry. Go back and get ready." An hour later, a servant led the four people to the study door and waited three meters away. They heard people talking inside the room, and occasionally heard loud laughter. The four people dared not speak and stood for half an hour. Two people came out of the room. The one in front was about twenty years old, wearing a red dress, a red embroidered belt, a wide-sleeved long skirt, holding a folding fan, graceful, peach blossom eyes full of spring love, and a willpower that could almost make people sick to death. Bai Xinyin said inwardly: What a showy young man. The man behind was in his forties, with a dark complexion and a medium build. He looked righteous and had a handsome appearance, but he was very dark. "You are so dark, but I am pitch black." Bai Xinyin glanced at the classmate Xiao Erhei next to her and teased him in his heart. The servant hurried forward to greet them: "Greetings, Master Si and Mr. Nan." The four of them also hurriedly followed suit and saluted. Bai Xinyin thought: These two people must be Master Fengying and Nan Huaijin. He bowed his head, bowed, and waited for them to come over. Suddenly, a pair of red cloud embroidered boots appeared in front of her. Without looking, Bai Xinyin knew it was that showy young man. "Raise your head." A voice as gentle as jade sounded above her head. Bai Xinyin raised her eyes and met the peach blossom eyes. "Hahaha..." Si Mochen laughed, "Is this the guy who runs every morning in your palace? He is really pretty, causing almost everyone in the palace to get up early just to meet you." Bai Xiyin: "…………" Are we familiar with each other?
