56 Fate
Hua An took a deep breath, half angry at Chu Yan's words, and immediately pointed to Chu Yan's nose and said, "Okay, I can hear it, you say I'm barbaric and rude?" Chu Zhongci, let me tell you, I really didn't mean to do this today, but now if I knew that you would come, I would not have kicked a stone, but a blade! I might as well ask Cousin Tang, but what kind of good thing are you? You are not as good as Hua Jieyu in terms of ability, you are not as good as Chu Bocun in terms of power, and you are not as good as Hua Wentang in terms of decision, that is, the freedom you want most, you are not as good as me! Look at you, the dignified lord of the county, even his own life has to be traded by power! Are you embarrassed to say me? I'd rather be a vulgar and rude person who can make his own decisions, rather than be a hypocrite like you who wants to resist but keeps being a dog! ”
"Okay," Chu Yan was already on fire in his belly, but now he was fueled by Hua An's poisonous mouth, and gasped angrily, "Flower Crow, don't you think I dare not touch you, don't you think you are free?" I tell you, the freedom you have is over from today! You wait to be my brother's wife! ”
"What did you say?" Hua An was stunned and asked.
Chu Yan sneered and walked away. The lantern maid made a salute and secretly said to Hua An: "The prince proposed to King Ning to marry the young lady as his wife, and now the county lord heard that he quarreled with the prince for some reason, and he was angry on the head before he was angry, and he bumped into the young lady, please don't blame the young lady." "Don't wait for Hua An to say anything, hurry up and follow Chu Yan.
Looking at the back of the two of them leaving, Hua An froze in place with a blank expression. After a long while, she understood why Chu Yan was so angry, and she said in a daze: "Chu Yan wants to marry me?" Then if I marry Chu Title, will Chu Zhong call me sister-in-law? "I'm still a little confused, Hua An doesn't know so I have to go back with Chu Yan.
Hwa-kyun was settled in the royal palace on the outskirts of Gyeonggi, which is smaller than Hwafu, because it was purchased by the Nyeongwang Mansion, and the style is very different from the elegance of Hwafu. Hua Xun was not surprised by the magnificence here, Gu Shangru lived in a simple house, and this kind of place was rare, but he was not a curious person, just after a few glances, he cared about Hua Xun: "The maids have tidied up the room, you are not feeling well, you have been tired for so many days, you should have a good rest." I asked Mr. Yi to ask the doctor to come and check your pulse. ”
Hua Xun stopped Gu Shangru, who was going to find Yi Zhi, glanced at Lily of the Valley who was making the bed, and said with a smile: "Brother Shangru is worried about the safety of Wentang these days, and it is very hard to keep Wentang all the time, so I still ask Brother Shangru to rest, it's so late, you might as well wait until dawn and then invite the doctor." ”
Gu Shangru was indeed very tired, and he still wanted to persevere, but Yi Zhi took the doctor to ask for a meeting at the door.
"Come in, Mr. Yi." Hua asked.
The two entered the door and bowed. Yi Zhi said: "The subordinates saw that the county lord's complexion was not very good, and he was afraid that he was tired from traveling these days, so he thought of bringing a doctor over to check the pulse of the county lord and prescribe some prescriptions." ”
"Mr. Yi is thoughtful." Hua Xun didn't say anything, sat down and asked the doctor to come over to check the pulse, and said to Yi Zhi, "Since Mr. is here, please sit down." ”
"Xie County Lord gave the seat."
When Gu Shangru was also seated, Hua Xun said, "I wonder when we will be able to enter the palace?" It doesn't seem to be Chang'an here. ”
"His Royal Highness King Ning is sick, and the prince means to wait for His Royal Highness to get better, and then invite the county lord to enter the city." Yi Zhi smiled, not minding Gu Shangru's face full of disbelief, "The county lord might as well stay here for some time to recover his spirits." If there is any need, tell the ministers, the prince said, but whatever the county lord asks, nothing is allowed. ”
"Thank you for your kindness. Thinking about the beautiful scenery here, the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, backed by green mountains and facing the big river, it is a spiritual place, and it is not impossible to cultivate here for a while. I don't have anything else to do, I just want Mr. Yi to bring a message to the county lord, saying that everything is fine here. ”
Yi Zhi blinked his eyes and said sincerely: "I will live up to my trust." When the doctor was optimistic, he got up and said, "Then please rest early for the county lord, and the ministers will retire." ”
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell the county lord that in order to protect the county lord's safety and prevent the assassins from attacking, a large number of guards will be sent here." Walking to the door, Yi Zhi turned around and asked Hua, and after speaking, he retreated directly.
Hua Xun lowered his face and glanced at Lily of the Valley. Lily of the valley understood, went to the outside of the palace gate and looked left and right, feeling that there were people guarding everywhere, closing the palace door, turning back to Hua Xun and whispering: "There are two people guarding ten steps outside the door, and there is a long spear sergeant patrolling not far away, I am afraid that the entire Beiye is surrounded by the army of Ning Wangfu." ”
"Is this to put us under house arrest?" Gu Shangru Huo Ran stood up and said angrily, "How can this be true!" ”
"Brother Shang Ru, don't be impatient, now we are guests of Ning Wangfu, and we are guests who have come to attend the Zhong Ci wedding, this Ning Wangfu is not expected to do anything to us. Besides, if something really happens here, the Son of Heaven can't get along with my father and the marquis, you can rest in peace, I don't think there will be any hostility towards us whether it is King Ning or the Son of the World. The purpose of the wave of people who assassinated us before was also for us not to go to Chang'an, and we were afraid that something earth-shattering would happen in Chang'an, and we would wait and see what happened for a few days. Seeing Shang Ru's expression of wanting to speak and stopping, Hua Xun knew that he was unwilling to be trapped, so he smiled and said, "If Brother Shang Ru really thinks that we are not good here, someone will definitely come to pick us up." Zelan and Pei Lan are my confidants, I want them to return to Huafu to see how my father is doing, Bai Qing stays in Gu Mansion, if we don't hear from him within ten days, they will tell my father and grandfather about our disappearance. It's good that they don't mobilize the crowd to arrest us, but they raise torches and stop the car in front of the villagers, if something happens to us, Ning Wangfu can't get out of the way. ”
"My cousin is really smart, but I'm not as good as a foolish brother." Gu Shangru's mood relaxed a lot, but it was not because he thought that the people in Ning Wangfu were reliable after Hua Xun's analysis, but because he was expecting that Hua Mansion and Gu Mansion would definitely send someone to find someone from Ning Wangfu. Hua Junhou loves face so much, and Gu Chong loves his juniors so much, he won't fail to come.
"It's so late, Brother Shangru should go back and rest early." Hua Xun felt very tired, the running along the way was nothing, the most important thing was mental torture, repeatedly speculating about these accidents, distinguishing whether they were friends or enemies, and speculating about what happened in Chang'an.
Gu Shangru said goodbye with interest, and after he left, Hua Xun rubbed the corners of his forehead, washed and went to bed under the service of Lily of the Valley.
There was no dream all night, and when Hua Xun woke up, it was already past the morning meal, but he only felt very heavy in a daze, and his body was very tired, and he couldn't even open his eyes. The room was very quiet, Lily of the Valley thought that she hadn't woken up yet, so she didn't dare to disturb her, wanting to say that she hadn't had a good rest since she had been in a hurry for so long, so it was better to let her sleep comfortably. Hua Xun felt a sore throat and a pain in the corner of his forehead like a pinprick. She tried to open her eyes, only to open a thin slit, only to see a woman in white standing silently next to her bed, the faint fragrance of begonias lingering on the tip of her nose, she felt that this woman was very familiar, so she wanted to call her, but for a while she couldn't remember who it was, she was uncomfortable, and her face was burning as if she had been burned by fire.
Hua Du stood on the edge of Hua Xun's bed, focusing on Hua Xun's tangled eyebrows, she felt as if Hua Xun was sick, stretched out her hand to touch her, stopped in mid-air, and withdrew her hand gloomily. Turning his head, he called Hua An, who was sitting nearby with his legs crossed and knocking melon seeds and spitting out the skin of melon seeds, to come over: "Come and see if she is sick." ”
Hua An rolled her eyes and didn't move: "You're not a fairy, why don't you see it yourself?" ”
"Wuya-" Hua Du's face turned cold.
"Okay, come on, I'll see." Hua An put the melon seeds back into his sachet, clapped his hands, walked to the couch slowly, and tried Hua Xun's forehead with the back of his hand, the temperature was terrifyingly hot, and he quickly withdrew his hand, grinning and said, "Ask Cousin Tang that this is going to burn stupid!" How can you be so sick! ”
Hua Du pursed his lips, his face was worried and distressed, and turned to go out.
Hua An stopped her: "Eh, where are you going?" I can tell you, your identity will be revealed as soon as you leave. Don't think you can take that broken umbrella and swagger here, stay here for me, I'll call the healer! Pressing Huadu to let her sit next to Hua Xun, he rolled his eyes again angrily, blew a breath and said, "You two are really not worry-free." ”
Swinging and swaying out of the door generously, Hua An was not worried at all that he would be arrested as an assassin. Hua Du sat next to Hua Xun, watching Hua Xun with pain written on his eyebrows and eyes struggling in his sleep, he couldn't do anything about her condition now, he was so anxious that he could only sit and wait, and he was as uncomfortable as burning. She took out the Jinpa from her sleeve and wiped the sweat from Hua Xun's sideburns, her movements so gentle that she was afraid of waking Hua Xun up.
Hua Xun seemed to feel Hua Du in his sleep, his breathing became heavier, and he was vaguely holding something, Hua Du couldn't hear clearly, so he could only lean over and lean close to Hua Xun's lips. It took a long time to listen hard before she understood that Hua Xun was calling her name. Hua Xun kept shouting in his sleep: "...... Commentary...... Why ......"
Hanado knew that her actions would cause a lot of harm to Hana. Hua Xun's life in Hua Fu has always been very peaceful, since her mother died, everything has changed in Hua Xun, and she, who vowed to protect Hua Xun, actually withdrew when Hua Xun needed a trusted person the most...... She must be in pain, right? Huadu sighed softly with pity.
"Ask Tang, it would be nice if you weren't so persistent." Hua Du smiled slightly, the indescribable bitterness in his smile, "So I don't have to worry about you encountering death...... However, you have come to Chang'an after all. ”
No matter how you stop it, you still have to come to Chang'an, and you still have to meet the catastrophe...... So if you are destined to die, all I can do is prolong your life for you. Forgive me for my selfishness, forgive me for not being able to watch you die in front of me again, you probably can't understand the pain of knowing that you are going to die, but I can't change anything.
After all...... Powerless.
