Chapter 240: Set up
Autumn is getting cooler, and at night, the coolness is even more refreshing.
In the night, a carriage drove into Shangsanfang and stopped in front of the gate of Jinfu.
The housekeeper had been waiting outside the gate for a long time, and when he saw the joy of the visitor, he bowed down again and again, and introduced the person wrapped in a gray coat into the mansion.
Jin Xiaojie was summoned to the palace in the afternoon and did not return, and Jin Shikang and his wife Yin Yu sat upright in the house to greet each other.
Guan Cunshan slowly walked into the flower hall under the guidance of the housekeeper and saluted the two of them.
The servants retreated, and the butler carefully closed the door and guarded the outside.
"Doctor Guan, you said that day that the master's body could be healed, but is it true?" Yin Yu couldn't help but ask first.
Jin Shikang was injured many years ago in the battle with the former king, although it did not hurt the root, but it is a fact that it has always been difficult to have an heir.
Guan Cunshan took out the pulse pillow and motioned for Jin Shikang to put his hand on it, but did not answer, his fingers were on the pulse, and a pair of clear and waveless eyes carefully looked at Jin Shikang's face and ears.
"In the past few days, has General Jin used his internal strength?"
"It's... To tell the truth, the general will rush to northern Xinjiang in the near future, and he has been conducting military exercises on the school ground for several days. ”
Guan Cunshan withdrew his hand, and after a moment of silence, he put away the pulse pillow, carried the medicine box, and pushed the sandalwood box containing the golden ticket in front of Jin Shikang in the shocked expressions of the two couples: "In this way, there is nothing I can do about it." ”
"Doctor Guan!" Yin Yu ignored his demeanor and caught up a few steps in front of Guan Cunshan, causing him to frown slightly.
"Madame, don't be rude. Jin Shikang strode forward, pulled Yin Yu away, and then arched his hand towards Guan Cunshan, but there was no respect on his face, and a cold light flashed: "Doctor Guan, why is this?"
Guan Cunshan ignored his killing intent and said lightly: "Since General Jin is so persistent, I will make it clear below." ”
He put down the medicine box, pulled Jin Shikang's wrist, and his slender fingers buckled every inch of his meridians, and with each buckle, Jin Shikang only felt as painful as if he had been hit hard, "What's going on?"
Guan Cunshan glanced at Yin Yu, "When I first saw the general and his wife, I knew that one of you should smoke incense." ”
Hearing this, Jin Shikang looked at his wife with a sullen face, and Yin Yu turned pale when he heard this, as if he had thought of something, and his whole body began to tremble.
"General Jin's injury did not hurt the root of the heir, what hurt you fundamentally is incense, this poison has entered the meridians, if you use internal force in vain, Qiong Zhi will be reborn, and there will be no skill to return to heaven. His words were as gentle as a breeze, but they made people shudder: "If you don't believe what you say, you just need to take the incense and go to the pharmacy to check the medicinal properties of the spices." ”
After speaking, he was about to leave again, but this time it was Jin Shikang who stopped him: "Then why did you say last time that you can still save it?"
The two looked at each other, one with red eyes and the other as cold as ice.
Yin Yu beside him was already cold, and sat on the ground at a loss.
"If you don't use martial arts, meditate and recuperate for half a year, and apply miracle medicine and acupuncture every day, the general may be able to do it?"
Jin Shikang's face eased slightly, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's not difficult, when General Ben repels the enemy army and triumphs, you can ask the king to recuperate at home." Completely ignoring what Guan Cunshan said just now, he said that he was vain and moving his internal force.
Guan Cunshan's thin lips were slightly hooked, and he glanced at him deeply and meaninglessly, and didn't say anything more, just left with the medicine box.
On the third day, there was a cry in the inner courtyard of the Jin Mansion, Yin Yu hanged himself, but fortunately the servant woman found it in time and saved her, and when she woke up, the incense was also found to be abnormal.
When Jin Shikang came back from the barracks, he saw his parents sitting high in the hall, and Yin Yu kneeling below with a sickly face.
"Father and mother, what's going on?"
Jin Xiaojie's face was gloomy, and his wife Yu Shi said in a deep voice: "Wu'er, the incense used by this demon woman is made of Miluo butterfly incense from northern Xinjiang," she saw that her son was still suspicious, glanced at her husband, and finally gritted her teeth and said: "Not only is it used for aphrodisiac, but it is also a medicine that hurts the root!"
This kind of talk shouldn't have been said by her, just because those subordinates who investigated the incense had already sent people to extinguish their mouths, and the Jinfu was precious, if it was spread by the subordinates, wouldn't it increase the laughing stock in vain, and how could the Jinfu gain a foothold?
Jin Shikang recalled Guan Cunshan's unclear eyes before leaving, looked at his wife in a daze, and said in disbelief: "What do you mean? You did it on purpose?" Although he was angry with his wife for using spices indiscriminately, he never thought that she would deliberately harm him, this wife grew up with his childhood sweetheart, and he couldn't be clearer about being a person.
Yin Yu finally cried, hugged Jin Shikang's calf and cried: "No, no, husband! Husband, you believe me! When Jin gave it to me, he only said that this incense could help extend the heir, but the concubine didn't expect her to lie to me!"
"Which Jin's?" Jin Xiaojie finally said coldly.
Yin Yu gritted her teeth and said, "It's the eldest lady of the Zeng Mansion!" she said that their sisters also used this talent to thrive. As he spoke, he hugged Jin Shikang's leg and repented in pain.
Jin Xiaojie and Jin Shikang glanced at each other, and they all thought of Lan Jicheng's impassioned praise of his exploits in the court and carried him to the commander of the Northern Army, and their hearts were cold.
In Tongwu Garden, a chamberlain carried dinner and stepped into the palace with his neck shrunk under the watchful eyes of the forbidden army.
It was dark in the temple today, and there was no candle to light. The bed brocade quilt is slightly raised, and the people inside should be sleeping.
In the past, the chamberlain put down the meal and left early, but today the chamberlain stepped forward to the bed without fear of death and said, "Prince Jiulan, it's time for dinner." ”
There was no movement under the quilt, he pouted, after all, he was still young, and he always had to do what he was told when he took the silver, and the man told him to put down the food box and call the prince of Jiulan to eat, and he had already done so.
He glanced at the quilt thoughtfully, turned around and was about to leave, when suddenly someone strangled his neck, was pulled back violently, instantly fell over on the bed and suffocated, and fainted before he even had time to call for help.
A moment later, the little chamberlain dressed in green bowed his head and carried a food box and left the palace and disappeared from the sight of the Praetorian Guard.
Gongyi Lingfeng paced anxiously in the courtyard, hearing that the Beichen envoy had already set off, but why was it so slow, she didn't want to stay in the royal capital for a moment, Zi'er, who she relied on the most on this trip, had been beaten to death with a stick, just because she was regarded as a meticulous work because she broke into Tongwu Garden, this Gulan King was not at all cowardly and easy to deceive as rumored, he was simply a cruel and unscrupulous tyrant! That day, the cruel look in the Zichen Palace frightened her into nightmares, she was so beautiful that she should not be buried in the forbidden garden of the tyrant's palace.
At this time, she only heard the maid in the front yard snort softly, and she was furious, and shouted: "What do you want to die?"
"Yo, the gentle and beautiful third sister has also changed sex? It seems that the capital of the king of Gulan is really a nurturing person!"
The familiar clear voice suddenly appeared in the outer hall, and it was Jiulan dressed as an inner attendant.
"How did you escape, do you want to trouble me?" Gongyi Lingfeng glared at him hatefully, afraid that he would approach.
A cold color flashed in Jiulan's eyes, "I'm here to help you, are you going to wait for King Gulan to blackmail our father with us?"
Gongyi Lingfeng's face changed, if this is the case, they will be in a dilemma, unless they accept their fate to stay in the Gulan country to be slaughtered, there will be no place for them in the country, she bit her lip and said, "What are you going to do?"
"Help me get out of Tongwu Garden! I'll go find that person, he will help us leave the royal capital and escape back to Beichen!"
