Chapter 64: The Price
didn't wait for her to find Zhao Boyang, but she heard a flute sound, like the flute sound when the snake appeared just now, her heart moved, and she was about to look for the sound, but the flute stopped abruptly and could not be heard again.
At this time, I heard two maids talking softly.
One of the maids said, "Sister, I'm a little sick to my stomach, please help me send the soup to the second son." ”
The second son in this mansion should be Zhao Boyang, Shen Xingchen didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly followed.
The maid entered a small courtyard and reported first, and Zhao Boyang's voice came from the room.
"Take the soup away, I don't want to drink it. ”
The maid replied yes, bent her knees outside the door, and retreated.
Su Yiqing stood outside for a while, and when she was sure that Zhao Boyang was the only one in the room, she thought about how to get in, knock on the door directly, report her name, and get permission before entering.
I walked to the door, took a deep breath, and was about to knock on the door when there was an alert low cry from inside the room.
"Who's out there?"
Su Yiqing was surprised by Zhao Boyang's good ear, but she didn't have time to think too much about it, so she directly whispered: "I'm Su Jiu." ”
As soon as the words fell, the door opened, Zhao Boyang looked at Su Yiqing in a dark dress standing outside the door in slight surprise, and asked, "Miss Jiu, why are you here?"
Su Yiqing looked around and said, "Let's go in and talk, so as not to be seen." ”
Zhao Boyang turned sideways and let Su Yiqing in.
"You may be seated. "As the son of a family, Zhao Boyang's etiquette is still good, although his heart is very different. Su Yiqing is a beautiful lady, why did she appear outside his room in the middle of the night, but she still politely gave up her seat, and his military career made him no longer strange to many strange things.
"No need, stand and talk freely," the matter was urgent, Su Yiqing decided to explain her intention directly, and asked, "Do you remember my maid core? Let's save you that. ”
Zhao Boyang naturally remembered that there was such a person, and he also looked for him afterwards and helped Su Jiu pass the word, although he had long forgotten the appearance of that maid, and nodded, "Remember." ”
Su Yiqing took a deep breath and said, "She was just bitten by a snake, and her life is on the line." Is Zhao Gongzi willing to save him?"
Zhao Boyang didn't say anything like Su Yiqing's wish, saying that saving people's lives is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, but asked, "How to save it?"
In one sentence, Su Yiqing knew that this matter must be more difficult than she imagined, this person is a cautious person, he does not promise lightly, and he probably will not pay any price for a little girl.
It is said that the men who fight in the barracks are harder than others. Once the success is done, she naturally won't care about a little girl, even if this little girl has been kind to her.
"The doctor said that to cure this snake venom, you need one thing, the Blue Dragon Ball that Ouchi treasures. Su Yiqing was concise and to the point, directly explaining the meaning.
Zhao Boyang also understood that the treasures of the Great Inner were extremely difficult for ordinary people to get, and this Su Yiqing came to visit late at night. is to want him to enter the palace to seek treasure.
He couldn't help but smile secretly bitterly in his heart, everyone who was raised in the boudoir was beautiful, even if they had some ability, they didn't know the world after all, they took the stories in the drama seriously, loyal servants and protectors of the master, and the love of the master and servant could be moved, and it was not easy to enter the palace to ask for medicine.
Don't talk about a little girl. Even if it is a relative of the emperor and the country, the medicinal materials in this palace are not something that can be begged for, if it is given to someone, what if the emperor or the golden branch and jade leaf and the concubines of the six palaces are sick? If you are sick, you have to go to Ouchi to seek medicine, and no matter how many medicinal materials you have, it is not enough.
Although the saint is often sympathetic to the old ministers, and occasionally rewards some urgently needed medicinal materials, but the saint first intends to give grace, and then the people around him inquire a little, what medicinal materials the courtier urgently needs now, the saint considers whether to give this grace at his discretion, or else he also asks someone to pass the words to the saint's ears, and the people around the saint pass the words to the saint's ears, if the saint has no intention of giving grace, he should not have heard of it, and there is no one to ask for it openly, this example must not be opened, not to mention that he asked for his mother, and he reluctantly said that filial piety is commendable. If it is for a little maid, it is impossible, to put it forward is to slap the royal in the face, and if the saint does not give it, it is to disregard the lives of the people, and if the example is opened, what should other people beg?
Zhao Boyang pondered the sentence and told Su Yiqing what he said.
Su Yiqing's eyes gradually became cold, and said: "Say 1,000 to 10,000, Zhao Gongzi is just unwilling to pay the price, if it is me who is poisoned today, will you do the same?"
Zhao Boyang hesitated for a moment and said, "These are two different things. ”
If it was Su Yiqing, he would naturally beg.
"When I saved the general, Xin'er's strength was no less than mine. Su Yiqing reminded in a scorching voice.
Zhao Boyang was speechless for a while.
Su Yiqing looked at the eyes of the man in front of her in disappointment, she knew that once this kind of man made up his mind, he would not be changed by a few words, so she would not say more, she had no time to entangle, Zhao Boyang did not agree, she had to find another way, so she turned around and walked out of the house quickly.
Zhao Boyang was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Su Yiqing to leave like that, so he came back to his senses and hurriedly chased out.
After going out, I couldn't help but be stunned, the night was vast outside, and there was still Su Yiqing's shadow.
This girl's legs and feet are too neat, right? Everyone, where did you learn the terrifying skills, but now is not the time to think about this, he is faintly uneasy in his heart, for fear that Su Yiqing will do something.
But the person has already run away, and he can't think about it at this time, for the first time in his life, he has a feeling of helplessness.
Su Yiqing walked out of the Zhenguo Mansion, took the ring to the extreme, and went straight to the palace.
She didn't have the ability to enter the treasure house to steal treasures, and at that moment now, she had another thought in her mind, combined with the rumors she had heard before, she decided to take the risk and ask for someone, a legendary woman......
Inside the Queen's Bedchamber.
The lord of the middle palace is sleeping peacefully on the couch, and there is no palace maid on duty at night in the dormitory.
"The Queen's Mother. ”
A low call rang out.
The queen woke up alertly and whispered, "Who?"
There was no one around, and she thought it was a dream, and she was about to close her eyes.
The voice sounded low again: "The folk girl has seen the queen mother. ”
"What kind of person is pretending to be a ghost?" The queen's voice was a little higher, but she didn't shout loudly.
"Queen Mother, the folk girl companion was bitten by a poisonous snake, and she urgently needs the Green Dragon Ball to save her life, please be gracious. ”
There was a sincere plea in his voice.
The queen said in a deep voice, "What if I refuse to be gracious?"
"Naturally, the folk girl can't force it, but maybe the mother will have a place where the folk girl can be used, the folk girl has no other skills, her legs and feet are more dexterous, and she is willing to serve the dog and horse for the mother. ”
can sneak into the harem quietly without alarming anyone, this ability is naturally extraordinary.
The queen's eyes narrowed slightly, and she said, "What kind of snake was your friend bitten?"
Su Yiqing didn't expect the queen to ask this, so she said: "The folk girl doesn't know, she only knows that the snake's head is triangular, and there is a little red on the top of the head." ”
The queen nodded: "This palace understands, only the Qinglong Bead is a big matter, it seems that it is inconvenient for you to reveal your identity, but this palace has a good medicine for the treatment of snake venom, you can take it back and try it, maybe it will work." ”
Su Yiqing's brain spun quickly, although the queen said that she had a try in her mouth, but it must have a miraculous effect, Cheng Taiyi also said that there will be antidote medicine in some places, and it is not uncommon for the palace to have it, the queen heard about the shape of the snake before giving medicine, she must be sure, even if the queen can't open the treasure house for no reason, how many pairs of eyes are staring at the palace, and as soon as this green dragon ball is taken out, it will light up outside, which will arouse suspicion, track it down, everyone is in trouble, do this part, it should be good, and if you can't save it, it can only be Xin'er's life, Don't be too demanding, lest you implicate the innocent.
The queen asked again: "I gave you the medicine, how will you serve the palace in the future." ”
Su Yiqing said: "There is a Hongji dim sum shop in the city, and there is a hundred-year-old camphor tree in front of the shop...... It's just that the people's girls don't do things that hurt nature and reason and violate morality. ”
The queen nodded, put a small medicine bottle on the round table in front of her, and said, "Three pills, feed one every half an hour, whether you can save it depends on your friend's life." ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw a black shadow flash, and the bottle was gone.
Rao is the master of the middle palace who has always been calm, and he can't help but shudder in his heart, is this a human or a ghost? However, after she trembled, a funny smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Su Yiqing took the medicine bottle and went straight back.
Under the pretext of looking at Xin'er, he secretly fed a pill to Xin'er, and pretended to be a master and servant, and stayed by Xin'er's side until dawn, when the three pills were completely eaten by Xin'er.
Seeing Xin'er's face improve a little bit, he was relieved, and it seemed that this game was a gamble.
This night in the house was noisy, first searched everywhere and sprinkled with insect repellent medicine, and some people were muttering in a whisper that this strange snake was a little strange or something, probably wondering if someone wanted to harm Miss Nine, but no one dared to say this, if you want to say doubts, there must be a suspect, Miss Nine is so conspicuous family affairs, and there is a lot of right and wrong, especially the sisters in Yuanping Bo's mansion have been married twice, and again, Master Su, as the head of the family, is not strict in governing the family, and he can also go home to farm.
The master's class thinks of intrigues, and the subordinates are thinking about another matter.
Everyone thinks that Xin'er will not die this time, and they have already started to hold a funeral for Xin'er, and the ambitious maids have already geared up to take Xin'er's position...... There are also stewards who are thinking about whether they should talk to Mrs. and move the girl Xin'er outside the house, otherwise Miss Nine is about to get married, and it is not good for this girl to die in the house after all, and whether Miss Nine should have more people around her to serve and so on, there are more places worth planning.
ps:
A qiē is unreasonable is a foreshadowing o(n_n)o, well, a certain Yin is a little cheeky to ask for a reward, to ask for pink.
Recommend a good book "Zhicui" to turn stones into gold and turn waste into treasure.
