cpa300_4(); Nangong Lizhu and Yu Gonggong came to tell me to leave immediately, but there was no sign of leaving for the next few days, and the state capital calmed down.

I couldn't get out, and there was no news to come in, so I had no choice but to stay quietly.

In a blink of an eye, more than a month has passed.

It was early summer, and the air was gradually scorching hot, although I was not in prison, but after all, I was still imprisoned, and the conditions here were not too good, the small room was becoming more and more like a steamer, and the women couldn't stand it, so they all stood under the eaves to enjoy the coolness, and I sat alone at the head of the bed, holding a Buddhist scripture and slowly flipping through it.

There were footsteps outside, and several women said, "Father-in-law Yu!"

Father-in-law Yu is here?

As soon as I heard this, I turned my head, only to see Father-in-law Yu walk in, also sweating profusely from the heat, and when he saw me sitting on the edge of the bed, he walked over: "Young girl." ”

"Father-in-law Yu. I struggled to get up and saluted him, but he hurried up to help me, looked me up and down, pinched my fingers again, and muttered, "Why is it so icy?"

I forced a smile: "It's okay." ”

In such weather, my body is still as cold as ice, and I have to cover the quilt when I fall asleep at night, I know what is going on in this situation, but I am staying up day by day, looking at his worried look, and said: "I have taken the medicine you sent on time." ”

"Why isn't that good?"

"It's a lot better," I said with a smile, "The illness comes like a mountain, and the illness goes like a thread." ”

Father-in-law Yu wrinkled his gray eyebrows, looked at me, but didn't say anything after all, turned around and beckoned, and a few little eunuchs outside the door walked in, carrying boxes and small stoves in their hands, and put them outside.

It's-

Father-in-law Yu said to me: "The medicine and the stove have been brought to you, you remember to eat the medicine on time, and our family will greet the kitchen with the meal." It's been hot these days, and it's even hotter if you don't have water here. But you're weak, so don't be too greedy at night. ”

As he spoke, he turned to the women and said, "You also take care of the young girl, and you will benefit from it." ”

"Yes. ”

I frowned.

Although my case was suppressed, I was still a suspect in the end, and this situation is obviously not for a suspect. However, this is not surprising, and the strange thing is-

"Father-in-law Yu, are you not ready to leave in a short time?"

"Hmm. ”

"What's going on? Didn't you say before that you're going to leave soon?"

Father-in-law Yu said: "I was originally planning to set off, but just a few days ago, I suddenly found the traces of those assassins. ”

"What?Assassin?!" I was taken aback, and my face turned pale.

Could it be that Pei Yuanhao had already found the hiding place of Yao Lao and them? Hongye Temple? If this is the case, is it because they are delaying the time to return to Beijing this time, so they are going to attack these people?

My heart was beating hard: "Did you fight?"

"Hmm. Father-in-law Yu nodded.

Suddenly, all the strength of my body seemed to be taken away, the last trace of support for me was gone, my chest was so stuffy that it seemed to explode at any time, I coughed desperately, coughed so hard that I couldn't straighten my waist, and my throat was oozing blood, a fishy sweetness.

"Young girl, what's wrong with you?"

Father-in-law Yu hurriedly helped me to calm my breath, I desperately restrained myself and looked up at him: "Are there any casualties?

"Nope. Father-in-law Yu shook his head and said: "They seem to be leaving Yangzhou by water, the emperor has already transferred a sailor from Zhoushan, and now the river is full of warships." ”

Waterways?warships?

When I heard this, my eyes widened in astonishment - not Momijiji Temple?

If Yao Lao's deeds are revealed, they must go back, and the waterway is ......

At this moment, a slender figure slowly walked into the room, and the women and little eunuchs standing at the door hurriedly saluted her: "Miss Nangong." ”

When Father-in-law Yu heard this, he also hurriedly turned around, and as soon as I looked up, I saw Nangong Lizhu standing at the door, looking at us.

Father-in-law Yu walked over and looked at her with a complicated expression: "Miss Nangong." ”

Nangong Lizhu nodded to him, slowly walked up to me, looked down at me for a while, and said, "Your face is still not very good." ”

Although my face was not very good, but just now I was in a cold sweat, at this time it was a little more wolf than the appearance of Father-in-law Yu when he came in, and I hooked the corner of my lips: "Let you remember." ”

Father-in-law Yu waved his hand, walked out with a few people, and closed the door.

Nangong Lizhu glanced back, smiled and said, "It's rare, you are already like this, and there are still people who are so good to you." Even the girl who was tortured called you one by one, saying that she was sorry for you. ”

"People have hearts. ”

"You mean, the emperor has no heart?"

"......" I lowered my head indifferently, my long eyelashes drooped, covering my eyes: "Whether the emperor has a heart or not, you know better than anyone else." ”

She looked at me in silence, and after a long while, said, "The battle will be fought for a while." After cleaning them up, they will return to Beijing, and you can take good care of your body during this time. ”

I laughed: "If the emperor really finishes this fight and excludes those people, is it still useful for me to stay?"

She said, "I'm not going to let you die." ”

Nangong Lizhu's peerless face showed a determined expression: "I said that you must not die until some things are concluded." ”

I looked up at her: "Does it matter if you win or lose?"

“……”

"You've already won against me now, you have to see me lose to the ground?"

"......" She was stunned for a moment, didn't speak again for a long time, and after a long time, she whispered: "Take care of your body." ”

After saying that, he turned around and walked out......

In the following days, I did not secretly pour out the medicine that was delivered every day, but endured the bitterness and drank it. The thick black liquid with the fishy and bitter taste was poured bowl by bowl, and the weather slowly became hotter, my appetite became very poor, I couldn't eat, my body didn't collapse, but my spirit never got better.

In the past half a month, some news from outside has also come in, it is said that the assassins have been completely wiped out, and the Zhoushan Shui Master has been rewarded by the emperor and returned with honors.

It's time to go back to Beijing.

On the day of departure, it was a cloudy day, the black clouds covered the sky like a thick quilt, there was no scorching sun, but it was still extremely hot, Yangzhou was like a closed steamer.

Finally walked out of this small room, the women helped me carry the luggage, some led the way in front, I walked a little hard, finally reached the outside, at a glance saw the wide open space in front of the door, Luan Driver had already been prepared.

There are many cars and horses, colorful flags fluttering, and it is very noisy at a glance.

Maybe I was locked up for too long and saw too few people, but when I saw such a scene, I was a little stunned for a while, and the figure in front of me flashed, and several guards had already come over and said to me, "Come over here." ”

By the way, my identity is still a prisoner.

On the way back to Beijing, naturally someone wanted to watch me.

I nodded, and followed them in a proper manner, at the end of the convoy there was a rather dilapidated carriage, surrounded by black cloth, which looked particularly solemn, and when I opened the curtain, I saw Shui Xiu curled up inside.

"Water show!"

"Girl!"

Her face was still scarred, she was very emaciated, curled up in the corner and still a little dazed, and when she saw me standing below, she hurriedly crawled over, and reached out to grab me, and the guards had already said, "Go up quickly, we will leave in a moment!"

My body was very weak, and I had some difficulty walking, so naturally I couldn't get into the car, so Shui Xiu pulled me, and a guard helped me, and finally got me into the carriage. As soon as I went up and sat down, Shui Xiu hugged me: "Girl!"

Tears poured down like beads of broken thread, and immediately soaked my clothes.

I looked down at her and gently reached out and patted her on the back, "It's okay." It's fine if you're okay. ”

"No, girl, I'm sorry for you, I-" She choked up, "I'm really afraid of pain, I-I'm beaten so much that I can't stand it, but-"

I covered her mouth: "Don't say it." ”

She looked at me with teary eyes, and I smiled, "If you are worthy of me, I am sorry for you now." ”

“……”

"At least for now, you're alive and I'm alive, and that's the best outcome. Shuixiu, you did nothing wrong. ”

"......" she cried so much that she threw herself into my arms, whimpering and choking.

I kept holding her and caressing her hair, and the noise outside was not heard for a while, and we did not know when the emperor left the state capital and got into the carriage, only to feel the carriage shake for a moment, and the whole convoy slowly drove forward.

The farther you go, the heavier your heart sinks.

I don't know if I'm right, but this time......

Shui Xiu cried and cried, people slowly fell asleep in my arms, the carriage swayed for a long time, I faintly heard the sound of rippling water, and the air that broke into the curtain was also full of fishy water vapor.

The carriage finally stopped.

Several guards immediately came over and lifted the curtain: "Get out of the car!"

Shui Xiu rubbed her eyes in confusion and said in a trance: "Arrived?"

I whispered, "I'm sleepy." It's a few months since I got back to Beijing, and I'll be there. ”

"That's—"

I didn't speak, slowly moved to the door, she hurriedly came up to help me, the two of them stumbled out of the car, as soon as I looked up, I saw a vast and endless river in front of me.

Shui Xiu was stunned: "Ah, here it is—"

"Marina. ”

I said softly, and as soon as I turned my head, I looked at the convoy in front of me, and the guard of honor also stopped, and the most luxurious gold car stopped not far in front of us, and the jade father-in-law walked up and lifted the curtain, and the familiar figure slowly walked down from above.

As soon as he got out of the car, all the people around him fell to their knees.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live. ”

A huge cry rippled across the vast river, shaking the river and rippling, his face was still cold, and he turned around to watch Nangong Lizhu get out of the car.

At this time, Nangong Lizhu's beautiful face showed a trace of strange fluctuations.

"We, by water?"

"Hmm. Pei Yuanhao turned to look at her, the river wind blew the clothes of the two people flying, he looked down at her, his long hair gently brushed Nangong Lizhu's face, and her green silk was entangled in the wind.

Nangong Lizhu seemed to smile: "In this way, I'm afraid it will take more time." ”

"It doesn't matter. ”

A light smile appeared on his usually indifferent face: "I, I want to spend more time with you." ”

Nangong Lizhu looked at him, he reached out and gently brushed the hair on her face.
