Super System in the Early Tang Dynasty

In the fourth year of the Zhenguan era, the Tang dynasty defeated the Tang, and Li Er (Emperor Taizong of Tang) washed away the shame of his father being called a "son emperor" and proclaimed himself "Heavenly Khan"!

That year, after several years of drought and locust plagues, the once barren land of the Tang Dynasty began to come back to life and began to flourish!

In that same year, the first group of envoys to Tang China, including Inu-gami Mitasuki, set foot on the land of Tang China from the so-called "Land of the Rising Sun" in the east!

At this moment, a tiny butterfly also began to flutter its small but beautiful wings—

Entering the Li residence through the gate of Qing Shi Lane, one is greeted by the bright spring sunshine. The Li family no longer has the lifelessness it once had. There is no hustle and bustle, but the clear sound of reading occasionally comes from the backyard, adding a touch of humanistic atmosphere to the desolate courtyard.

Because no one had informed him in advance, Wang Xiucai, who was busy at the time, did not come out to greet him this time. Li Xingzhi walked back to his courtyard, where everything was still the same, except that the hibiscus he had planted had sprouted tender green leaves.

"You're back!" came a surprised voice.

Looking back, a rather spirited young girl stood gracefully behind the crescent-shaped gate.

The most difficult time for this little girl was during the days Li Xingzhi was away.

Whether it was because she was thinking about revenge, or something she herself didn't know, she always felt uneasy about relying on this only person she felt close to besides Aunt Wu, especially since the secluded and deserted courtyard made her feel even more desolate.

"Where did you go? Why didn't you tell me?" the little girl asked innocently and matter-of-factly.

Li Xingzhi was somewhat puzzled, but ultimately kept his distance from this seemingly strong yet silly little girl who shed tears for no reason.

However, she couldn't help but feel sorry for her tragic fate, and she couldn't get angry at Hu Qing'er's somewhat harsh words. She was just an ignorant child, what could you possibly argue with her about?

“I’ve gone to the farm outside the city,” Li Xingzhi said.

"Then remember to take me with you next time you go out!" the little girl said crisply, her words carrying a hint of determination.

"No way!" Li Xingzhi didn't want to take a burden with him wherever he went.

The little girl didn't say a word, just stared at Li Xingzhi, tears welling up in her eyes. Perhaps it was a manifestation of her helplessness, or perhaps she was clever enough to know Li Xingzhi's soft nature; the tears streamed down her fair cheeks and fell to the ground.

"no!"

If it were anyone else, he would have just told them to get lost. However, he couldn't bring himself to be angry with this naive little girl. Although he felt bad, he still had to stick to his principles.

Hu Qing'er didn't know why she did this. Ever since Li Xingzhi disappeared, she felt empty and listless all day long. It seemed that Li Xingzhi had become her only reason and support for living, amidst the unfamiliar surroundings.

Seeing Li Xingzhi close the door, she suddenly felt a chill, but she didn't want to leave. She didn't know what else she could do, so she just curled up in the dark corner, staring blankly at the ground in front of her, completely lost.

Back in the mountain village, she would spend her days reading biographies and anecdotes, practicing her whip skills, and when she got tired or bored, she would run out to tease the people. When she was unhappy, she would vent her anger with the whip. But suddenly, everything around her had changed, like a kitten in an unfamiliar environment, feeling fear, panic, and confusion. When she saw something familiar or comforting, she would try her best to approach it.

After Li Xingzhi cultivated the Azure Wood Qi, the natural aura he exuded was undoubtedly fatal to an extremely sensitive kitten.

Li Xingzhi didn't understand, and neither did Hu Qing'er. She thought it was revenge, but in reality, even after spending so many years in the bandit's den, she didn't understand how much bloodshed was brewing in "killing" and "revenge".

In her eyes, the word "revenge" is neither red nor black, but simply white.

She made the decision because Li Xingzhi told her she should take revenge.

Li Xingzhi cleaned himself of the filth and changed his clothes. By then, dusk had fallen.

As the sunlight faded, a chill crept up from the ground.

He was going to check out the backyard.

Suddenly, his keen eyesight caught sight of a small figure under the wall of his own yard.

A thought struck him, and upon closer inspection, he realized it was Hu Qing'er, huddled in the somewhat chilly shadows beneath the wall.

He hurried over and called out, but there was no response. He touched her body with the back of his hand; it was a little cold. Li Xingzhi didn't care about anything else, picked up the little girl, and took her into the house.

The young girl's health shouldn't be this poor. The main problem is that she had damaged her vital energy due to emotional fluctuations half a month ago and hadn't recovered. Later, Li Xingzhi's departure made her restless. Today, with the spring chill still lingering and her staying in such a cold and damp place, she unknowingly allowed evil energy to enter her body.

If Li Xingzhi hadn't discovered it sooner, her soul might have simply vanished.

Li Xingzhi had never studied medicine, and didn't even know how to use his internal energy to heal or save lives. However, he did understand some basic first aid knowledge.

First, he loosened the girl's stiff body, then covered her with a blanket, and gave her a Nine-Flower Jade Dew Pill mixed with spiritual spring water. This kind of all-purpose medicine is safe and won't cause any problems.

His pale face regained its color, which relieved him. If this little girl had died because of him, he would have been uneasy for a long time.

The servants then invited a renowned doctor from Anpingfang.

The doctor's surname was Zhou. It was said that he was a descendant of the imperial physician of the previous dynasty. Everyone called him Old Zhou. He was a very approachable person. Whenever a patient asked him for help, he would come running.

Li Xingzhi had never heard of such a good doctor in Tanzhou City before, so he dared not delay and quickly went out to invite him.

But then I saw an old man, thin and frail, with a unique air about him. His hair and beard were all black, with only a few strands of white hair at his temples. If I hadn't already known, I would never have guessed that he was nearly seventy.

The old man glanced at Li Xingzhi but ignored him, and went straight into the room. He felt Hu Qing'er's pulse for a long time before letting out a sigh of relief, breaking the somewhat tense atmosphere in the room. "I wonder what kind of miraculous medicine she took. There's no need for this old man to show off."

After saying that, he ignored everyone else and walked straight outside. Although he was also curious about the elixir that had such a miraculous effect, he knew it must be something precious. The old man, who was already well-versed in the ways of the world, was too lazy to ask.

"Wait a moment!" Li Xingzhi stepped forward. "Please accept these few pills, sir."

He did this partly out of respect for the man's character, and partly to avoid making him come all this way for nothing; it's never a bad thing to make friends with more people. As for the prescription, Li Xingzhi didn't mention it, as bringing it up would only cause trouble.

Old Zhou was taken aback when he saw the small white jade bottle being handed to him. Seeing the sincerity on Li Xingzhi's face, he nodded and accepted it. "Please accept this, old man. If there is anything that only this old man can do, just ask."

If it were just ordinary gold and silver, it wouldn't be a big deal, since no effort was put in and it wouldn't be appropriate to accept something from someone else.

But a good medicine is a great temptation for a doctor! Old Zhou knew how precious this elixir was, and how great this favor was.

Seeing this, Li Xingzhi didn't hesitate. Knowing that the old man had other matters to attend to, he didn't linger and directly ordered his servants to escort the old man out.

Wang Xiucai had already arrived. Seeing that nothing was wrong, he went back to his work. Only Wu Da Niang looked rather grim. After all, Li Xingzhi had entrusted her with taking care of Hu Qing'er, and who knew this would happen? It was definitely her dereliction of duty. If she only received some punishment, that would be fine, but if she were sold off, where would she find such a good family again? Wu Laoliu was also reluctant to part with her!

Li Xingzhi didn't bother with her. Although the matter wasn't entirely her fault, she was still at fault. It was better to let Wang Xiucai, the "living devil," play the bad cop. He was such a soft-hearted person, so let it go.

After settling the stubborn young woman, Hu Qing'er, Li Xingzhi headed to the backyard.
