Chapter 8 Eternal Life
Yan Song was conscious again, it was already the early morning of the second day, the soft futon was full of a faint fragrance, probably smelling the smell before her head began to wake up, she was confused, she was not dead, maybe it was a dry mouth and headache, so that she realized that she was not dead.

Listening to her own heavy breathing, she did not have the strength to sit up from the bed, what had happened after she knelt in the garden that day, and who would have been the one who saved her......
"Song'er, Song'er......" She heard a cordial call, and got closer and closer to her, and the vague outline began to clear.
It's a woman, wearing a fluffy vest, plain clothes look poor, and there are not many hairpin ornaments in the bun, just a simple wooden hairpin.
The woman tried her forehead, slowly helped her to sit up, and her voice was exactly the same as her mother's, "Come, drink this medicine and you'll be fine." ”
She leaned back with some resistance, and then looked around, the room was small, and things were piled up everywhere, but the whole thing seemed to be in order.
She raised her head, her eyes were like a newborn wolf, full of alarm about everything in this world, "You, you are ......"
The woman smiled, stroked her messy hair, and said slowly, "Child, I'm my aunt, remember?"
Aunt?
Yan Song shook her head, her mother rarely seemed to mention her relatives, and her mother passed away early, so she had no impression of this aunt.
But if it's an aunt, it's a mother's sister. She must be the one who knows her mother best, and maybe she knows the details of her mother's death back then.
She was curious about this new environment, and looked left and right for a long time, perhaps because of the long-term bruises all over her body, a little warmth could make her speechless.
"That'...... Where is this?"
"Don't worry, this is my house and your home. ”
She opened her mouth half-open, and said the word "home" softly in her mouth.
After her mother's death, her father warned her again and again that she was a wild child, a wild seed, with lowly and dirty blood in her bones, and that she was not worthy of a home, but only a fence.
Home, the corners of her mouth left a touch of anticipation, perhaps because she had never had it, so it would be so.
The aunt took the medicine handed by the maid and blew lightly, "Come, drink this medicine again, so that you can get better faster." ”
Her eyes flashed with resistance, but she was surrounded by sudden warmth, and the more she looked at it, the more she looked like her mother, and her voice was exactly the same as her mother's. She was afraid that she also had delusions, and it took a long time for her to come back to her senses.
She leaned over obediently, like an obedient child, and drank the decoction.
After drinking the medicine, his body warmed up, "Auntie, why am I here?"
My aunt was carrying her back and didn't hear it clearly, so she turned around and hesitated for a long time and said, "I went to Luofu to look for you that day, and I was going to take you back to the house, but Luo Liang said that you had a high fever and didn't go away, so I took you back." ”
“…… Then, do you want to go back?" The timidity in her eyes may have been frightened for ten years, and she refused to let go of the hope she held for a while.
A faint smile fell on my aunt's face, "Silly boy, of course you don't go back, how can your aunt let you continue to suffer there." ”
As soon as she heard this, a heat had already rushed to her eyes and couldn't help it, and hugged her from behind, "Auntie...... Aunt......"
She is a child after all, a child who needs to be protected and loved, because no one is born tough, and certainly no one is born weak.
My aunt's voice was slightly choked, "Don't cry, don't cry...... After your mother's accident, my aunt wanted to take you back, but she hated that Luo Liang asked for a hundred taels at that time, otherwise she would not have handed you over to me......"
"One hundred taels, where did my aunt get the money now?"
Although Yan's house is a scholarly family, since Mrs. Yan was dismissed, his family has fallen into the middle, and looking at the clothes and accessories on his aunt's body and the crowded room, he knows that his aunt's family is not rich.
"It's strange to say, someone sent it yesterday, just one hundred taels, I originally refused, but when I came, the man said to use the money to redeem you in Luofu, so I accepted it. ”
"Who is that man......?" she asked, leaning forward, a little startled to her aunt.
"It's said that it's your usual friend, seeing you suffering, and wanting to help you. I didn't say much else......"
Yan Song was silent, on the eve of her aunt's arrival, someone had indeed said that she had rescued her, the Eighth Prince, could it be him? She felt more and more that the Eighth Emperor was a dangerous person, what was the purpose of his mouth......
Seeing that her eyes were dull and she was looking ahead without focus, her aunt comforted, "Rest well, don't think too much, and follow my aunt in the future." ”
Yan Song came back to his senses and nodded, perhaps because his aunt and mother were sisters, and his voice was the same as the same person.
……
"Madam, ma'am, it's not good! Young master, young master has an accident!" A maid stumbled at the door and ran to him with a panicked expression.
"What are you talking about?Changshi?What's wrong with Changshi?huh?" the aunt's expression immediately panicked, and she grabbed the maid's arm.
The maid was hesitant, "The people in the palace said that the young master was abusing his private power in Taixue, and now, it has been, has been, and has been assigned to the border city......"
"Impossible, impossible, I'm going to see Changshi......" The aunt ran towards the door, ran so fast that she fell to the ground.
"Auntie, aunt!" she immediately jumped up from the bed and helped her up.
"Madam, now that the young master has left the city, I'm afraid it's too late. ”
My aunt's eyes were red and swollen, her face was wrinkled, and her hands were trembling, "How is it possible...... How could Changshi do such a thing......"
My aunt couldn't walk, so she squatted on the ground and covered her head and cried. Yan Song remembered this elder brother, perhaps because he loved her very much when he was a child, and every time he brought a sugar gourd, he gave it to her without eating a bite.
"What the hell is going on?" Yan Song asked.
"Miss Hui, the day before yesterday, the emperor made a fuss about rectifying Taixue in the palace, and a total of three young masters were arrested, all of whom were accused of favoritism and abuse of power, so they were all assigned to the frontier. ”
"You mean, there is also an elder brother among the people who have been arrested?" she said.
The day before yesterday, wasn't it the day when Russell entered the palace to offer his plan...... Yes, there is a trick in the plan to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, because he is afraid of provoking some old ministers to confuse the government. Why? Could it be that the people arrested are not those corrupt officials at all, but random scapegoats?!
She doesn't know how to calculate after all, those old treacherous people have already thought of a way to get out, and the only ones who suffer are the cousins who once loved her the most.
"Yes, but the young master will never do such a thing, he must be framed, but we are soft-spoken, and we can't fight those corrupt officials. ”
She was wearing a thin underwear, and she looked even thinner when she stood up, but these thinness did not make her look weak, but showed more and more solemnity, "You take your aunt back to the room, and I will deal with this matter." ”
Treatment, although she said the word "processing" in her mouth, but what can she rely on? She has nothing in her hands......
"Yes!"
The maid was walking to the door, and bumped into another person who looked in a hurry, probably the Yan Mansion guarding the door, "Miss, there is an old man surnamed Shen looking for you at the door!"
The word that flashed through her mind suddenly made her sober up.
"Bring him to me!"
The person who came was really Lao Shen, but this time the dress was completely different from that night, but the heroism that he should have in his bones was embedded outside.
"Is the girl feeling better?" he asked, respectfully.
"Thank you, General, it's much better. ”
"Does the girl know the identity of the old man?" she saw that he looked a little surprised, and knew that she had guessed correctly, that he was the general who came that day.
"Both the general and His Royal Highness attended the banquet in Luofu that day, but if you ask your subordinates, you will know. ”
General Shen frowned, and carefully studied for a long time before saying, "Since the girl knows, the old man is not convenient to hide, His Royal Highness wants to invite the girl to go to the Jade Immortal Tower." ”
She bowed, "Okay, I'll tell Your Highness that I'll change my clothes and go over." ”
The corners of her mouth hooked a smile, sure enough, Your Highness, he is the eighth prince, he knows himself and his opponent, at least now the transaction between her and him is more equal.
