Su Xin'an, which was originally very quiet, has become increasingly cold today. Mei Xiangu is wearing a Taoist robe and black silk hair, and her weather-beaten face has a detached tranquility that is difficult to invade in the world.
"Life and death are destiny, wealth is in heaven, why do you need to worry about it? Your Royal Highness has done many good deeds, so it is unlikely that his life will be so short. There must be some mistake that caused the news to be miscommunicated." While comforting the dazed concubine,
Mei Xiangu winked at Su Yan, but Su Yan had more than enough intentions but not enough strength. She knew that she should say some nice words to comfort her at this time, but the pain in her heart was greater than anything else, and she had no energy to persuade others, just like the concubine Jing.
driven to distraction.
If an assassin hadn't broken in and casually revealed the truth, the women's family would not have known that something had happened to Yi Chenjing. It was uncomfortable to be kept in the dark, and it was even harder to accept the news of the death of the backbone.
"The emperor has already issued an edict to confer upon your highness the title of King Anzhao. Why is there any misinformation or misinformation? If you are dead, you are dead. If you deceive yourself and others in the end, you will not be able to bring people back to life. What's the use of crying?" Qiao
Qing Xu leaned against the door with an impatient look on her face. She couldn't help but get angry when she heard Su Yan and Yu Che sobbing softly, "If you cry, you will cry. You women who were raised in the palace will live your life pointing to a man? For
You're a dead man who doesn't care about food and drink. Have you ever thought about what Zhan Ting has gained from working so hard to protect you for so long? A wooden head and a dead fool's loyalty!"
Zhan Ting, who was sitting on the stone steps at the door, didn't want to speak. Unexpectedly, Qiao Qingxu pointed the finger at him as he spoke. He had no choice but to pull the corner of Qiao Qingxu's clothes hanging on the ground: "Qingxu, don't
Having said that, they... they feel uncomfortable."
"It's hard for them, so you can feel better, right?" Qiao Qingxu saw that Zhan Ting not only did not appreciate it but blocked her, she sneered angrily, "You fool, you have worked for Yi Chenjing for nothing and you still speak for him! Prince
What do generals and ministers have to do with you? You don’t like fame and wealth, and you have no interest in power and status. I really don’t understand why you do that!”
"Your Highness saved me, that's enough."
Zhan Ting's tone was light, as if being loyal to Yi Chenjing was a matter of course and there was no need to doubt it.
After all, they were old acquaintances for many years. Qiao Qingxu knew Zhan Ting Dunhou's almost stupid temperament very well, and knew that it would be futile to talk any more, so she could only sigh depressingly, glared and pulled back the corner of her clothes: "As you wish, as you wish.
I am not as knowledgeable as a fool. Now I just want to know what you are going to do, continue to protect them?"
"Yes." This time the war court was very straightforward and answered without hesitation, "I don't believe the news they sent. The day I don't see the body, the day I don't admit that His Highness is dead. Your Highness told me before leaving.
We must protect Concubine Jing and Mrs. Suyan, unless he himself says no, I will continue to protect them - Qingxu, this is my responsibility."
Because that man could not care about life and death, could kneel down and bury himself in the disgusting royal officialdom, and was even willing to protect unrelated women for that man. Qiao Qingxu really didn't understand where Zhan Ting's persistence came from.
Come on, he can obviously get rid of the prison and roam the mountains and rivers, he can obviously...
She pursed her lips slightly, thought about what she was going to say, and swallowed it back.
The tall Qiao Qingxu looked back at the three depressed women in the room, turned around, knocked Zhan Ting on the head gently and strode away, leaving only one sentence that made Zhan Ting feel grateful.
"I'll go find my brothers on the road to help find it, and I'll let you know if I have any news - you have to remember to return the favor to me in the future. As for how to repay it, I'll tell you next time."
At that time, he must be shocked.
A hearty smile bloomed at the corner of Qiao Qingxu's mouth, and her appearance was no different from that of any romantic girl. If not, who would have thought that such a cheerful and charming woman could be a heroic hero in Zhongzhou? And because of her words
, the war-torn times that were supposed to set the pattern have been rewritten again.
The snow in Xichu is very heavy and beautiful, a bit like the winter scenery in my hometown. The spectacular scene of falling snow is perfect for creating a beautiful death.
Before completely losing consciousness, Bai Qige was still thinking wildly like this. When she regained consciousness, she could not feel the coldness of the snow. Instead, she could only feel warmth and comfort, and a soft male voice.
"Ye Ye, go get the rootless water buried underground in the medicine garden. Remember to get the three-year-old jar; there are also purple grass leaves, winter roots, and summer flies. Oh, by the way, don't forget to bring the medicine cloth. I'll go
Get some water."
That voice was definitely something Bai Qige had never heard before. It was an extremely gentle and quiet voice with a hint of youthfulness, and the tone was slightly intimate. She should be talking to someone very close to her. The situation was unknown, so Bai Qige did not dare to speak rashly.
I had no choice but to pretend to be still asleep, and only opened my eyes when I heard the sound of the door closing and footsteps fading away, and looked around cautiously.
Her last memory was of falling on the boat with Yi Chenjing. Both of them were seriously injured at that time. However, she could hardly feel any pain in her back shoulders now, just numbness and itching. She also had some strength, at least.
It was okay to get out of bed and move around, someone had obviously rescued her and helped her heal.
Who could it be? The person who just spoke?
He turned over and sat up for a moment of silence. The darkness after a long sleep finally dissipated before his eyes, and he could see the surroundings clearly.
This is a small but neat and clean hut. It is fully equipped with bookcases, tables and desks. They are all antique and semi-new, but it has a warm feeling. A pot of incense is burning quietly, and there is a faint medicinal fragrance. Look.
Even if the owner who came to the room was not a doctor, he was still a person who was proficient in medical skills. This could also explain why many doctors were helpless and their wounds no longer hurt. Bai Qige even had a suspicion. Could it be that the person who saved her happened to be the poisonous doctor?
There were footsteps outside the door again. Bai Qige hurriedly lay down on the bed and fell asleep, pricking up her ears and continuing to eavesdrop.
There was the sound of the door opening, the sound of something being put down, and then the man said softly: "Ye Zi, go and see if the young master is awake. If not, continue to apply medicine to him."
"After all, I'm a girl too. Senior brother, don't worry. I'm in the same room with a grown man, and I have to take off his clothes and wipe him. What should I do if I can't get married in the future?" A clear female voice complained again and again, but Bai Qige kept pretending.
There was a hint of smile in her aggrieved tone, but she didn't want to think too much, all her energy was focused on the "young master" in the man's mouth.
"Young master" refers to Yi Chenjing? Since he saved her, there is no reason not to save Yi Chenjing. Hearing that man instructing the woman to apply medicine to Yi Chenjing, Bai Qige felt somewhat relieved. After all, his injuries were more serious than
It was much worse for her. What she was most afraid of after waking up was someone telling her that Yi Chenjing had not survived this disaster. Fortunately, that was just a worry and did not become a fact.
There was still the sound of the door closing softly, and he walked towards the desk with even steps. After a while, a chuckle came from the room.
"Since the girl is awake, why pretend to be asleep? You must know that the way of breathing is completely different between sleeping and not sleeping."
Bai Qige's face stiffened, she climbed up from the bed silently, and looked at the man with some embarrassment.
He is an ordinary person, about 17 or 18 years old. He is still a young man. He has a fair complexion and delicate facial features. He is not a handsome man but is not inferior to ordinary people. However, he has a gentle and clean smile that makes people feel close and warm from the bottom of his heart. That's it.
This smile made Bai Qige dispel her doubts and vigilance, and she no longer concealed her speech and behavior: "I just don't know where I am and I'm afraid of being rude, so I don't dare to speak. Please forgive me."
"It doesn't matter. You must be on guard against others. It's also right for a girl to be on guard." The young man didn't pursue it. After pondering for a moment, his smile gradually turned into a curious frown. "The girl's injury is very strange. I've tried all the miraculous medicines but it still doesn't work."
It can’t be healed, but it’s poisoned?”
Bai Qige nodded, feeling more at ease.
This young man is indeed extraordinary. Maybe he doesn't need to go to a poison doctor. He can diagnose and treat him and he can detoxify him?
The young man didn't seem surprised by the affirmative answer. He waved his hand for Bai Qige to sit down, and he took out the medicine jar and pestle from under the desk and started pounding it: "Girl, take a rest for a while, and I will give it to you when the junior sister gets the herbs."
You change the dressing - well, I have to tell the girl first not to argue with my little junior sister, just treat her as young and ignorant, and not as knowledgeable as she is."
Junior sister? Is she the woman he was talking to just now? When she mentioned that woman, Bai Qige suddenly jumped up and rushed in front of the young man, her face that was rarely red suddenly turned pale.
The sudden change shocked the young man. He thought there was something wrong with her wound. Who would have thought that Bai Qige opened her mouth with a series of anxious questions: "Where is the person with me? How is he? Is he seriously injured? Is he in danger?
?”
"Girl, girl, please calm down first..." The young man smiled bitterly and carefully pulled out the sleeve that was pulled by Bai Qige, "You mean the young man who was injured by the arrow? Although his injury was serious, it was not dangerous. The arrow was not injured.
It touches my heart, it can be said to be a blessing among misfortunes." As if remembering something, a look of admiration and yearning appeared in the young man's eyes: "Forgive me for being presumptuous, but may I ask if the girl and the young man are married?"
Bai Qige hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded gently: "He is my husband."
The young man was suddenly enlightened, and the clean smile returned to his face. When he looked at Bai Qige, he felt even more envious: "No wonder that young master wanted to protect the girl even if he risked his life. He was obviously injured more seriously, but he still considered the girl in every move he made.
It’s really admirable.”
"Protect me?" Bai Qige was confused.
Yi Chenjing was already unconscious when she fainted, so how could he protect her?
Just as he was about to continue asking, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and then the door was violently knocked open, and a pretty girl in a bright red dress appeared at the door holding a basket.
"Hey, you're awake? That's just right. I'll leave it to you to apply the medicine on that big guy later. I also have to practice!" Curious eyes lingered on Bai Qige for a moment and then turned to the young man. The girl looked carefree.
She put down the heavy basket and took a deep breath, then turned around and looked at Bai Qige carefully. After looking at Bai Qige for a long time, which made the boy feel embarrassed, the girl suddenly curled her lips and said: "You can't really have that kind of relationship? Tsk, if I were that big girl
He will definitely not like you. He is very sick and is about to die. You don't even bother to go and see him, but you are still here leisurely hooking up with my senior brother. You are really not ashamed."
"What's wrong with him?!" Bai Qige grabbed the girl's slender arm, her eyes filled with panic.
Bai Qige's hands trembled uncontrollably. The girl realized that she was not pretending to be surprised. Then she raised her eyebrows and tugged on the young man's sleeves: "Brother, didn't you tell her that the big man caught the cold?"
