CHAPTER XXXVII
Yan Zhaohua sat in front of the dresser, looking at the wound on his jaw, it was not very big, but it was a little deep, and when he looked up, he could see it, about the size of a fingernail, red, and a little flesh had been turned out, and it had not yet scabbed. But thinking about yesterday's thrill, this little injury can be regarded as her life. Yan Zhaohua still has palpitations, if she was strong yesterday, maybe she would have been poked to death on that sword, yesterday's incident was the most terrible scene she had ever encountered in her past life and present life, at that moment, all the hatred was forgotten, and she only thought about how to live.
It's strange to say, how could I really say those people who were so inexplicable yesterday? If they didn't listen to her nonsense, maybe she and Yan Xiu had already been carried back to the house with their bodies, how could they wait until Wei Wuhou went to search and rescue them?
Dye Xiang and Qingzhu wiped her tears while combing her hair: "How can you go to relax in a good manner, and you will encounter this kind of thing?" Miss is still a girl, if something really happens, what will she do! ”
Dye Xiang is more sensual, as long as she thinks of the wolf bèi when Miss and Hou Ye came back last night, Dye Xiang feels that her legs are weak and she can't stop shivering. Although Qingzhu is sensible, he is also touched:
"This time, I was about to thank Wei Wuhou, if he hadn't saved Miss and Hou Ye, I don't know what would have happened."
Qingzhu's words made Yan Zhaohua's gaze turn from his raised chin, and he nodded: "Yes, I really want to thank him for having the opportunity." ”
If Tan Cheng hadn't arrived in time, with her father shedding so much blood, even if those assassins didn't come back, her father probably wouldn't have survived all night in the forest, and Xiu died, even if she didn't die and was finally rescued, but the name must have been ruined, and it was almost the same as dead, it was better to die.
As he was talking, a voice came from the courtyard: "Miss, Master Hou woke up and said he wanted to see you." ”
It was the guards in Yan Xiu's study who came to pass the word, and rarely set foot in the backyard, Yan Zhaohua had just finished freshening up, and went out after listening to his words, and asked him, "How is my father?" ”
The man replied: "Hou Ye has woken up, the bleeding has long stopped, and now the doctor has bandaged it, but Hou Ye is not at ease, and he has to see him to rest assured." ”
Yan Xiu's injury is an external injury, as long as the bleeding stops, it is no big deal, it is a good rest, Yan Zhaohua did not delay, followed the guard to Yan Xiu's courtyard, Yan Xiu generally does not live in the main courtyard, more often he sleeps in his own study, his study is very large, larger than an ordinary courtyard, several rooms are connected, Yan Zhaohua has been here a few times, but it is not as justified as this time.
The guards took her outside the bedroom, and after passing the word, they invited her in, Yan Xiu's bedroom was very simple, only some necessities for life, not much other decoration, not even a screen in front of the bed, Yan Zhaohua went in and turned a corner and saw Yan Xiu leaning on the bed, with a pale face, there was a doctor next to him who was still prescribing prescriptions, and the mighty Tan Cheng was also there.
When Yan Zhaohua saw that there were outsiders, he hurriedly lowered his head to say goodbye, and listened to Yan Xiu say: "This is Uncle Tan, kowtow three times, thank him for saving his life." ”
Yan Xiu's words made Yan Zhaohua not dare to slack off, knelt down in front of Tan Cheng in a proper manner, kowtowed three times, and said honestly: "Thank you Uncle Tan for saving your life." This is not only Yan Xiu's order, Yan Zhaohua himself is also very grateful to Tan Cheng, so the three heads are convinced.
"Hurry up, my niece doesn't have to be polite."
Tan Cheng is a hearty general, and there are not so many rules, which makes Yan Zhaohua up. Yan Zhaohua walked to Yan Xiu's bed and asked Yan Xiu, "What does my father think?" ”
Yan Xiu moved the corners of his mouth, shook his head, and said, "It's okay, the bleeding has stopped." You tell your Uncle Tan about what happened after I fell into a coma yesterday, but what clues are there, what they said, tell everything in detail. Those people came in and out of the capital, and your Uncle Tan was in charge of the five cities, if there were some clues, he would definitely be able to find out some cause and effect. ”
Yan Zhaohua was about to repeat what he said to Yan Xiu yesterday, when he heard Xie's voice sound outside the door and said:
"The prince is too polite, and the Hou Ye is fine."
Xie Shi actually introduced a handsome boy directly into the door, the boy was long and jade, his eyebrows were picturesque, his body was different from others, he was wearing a pale brocade and cloud sleeves, he could see his beauty without accessories, his face was pale but handsome, and his eyes were full of wisdom.
"My father and Hou Ye made an appointment to meet with the cabinet this morning, but I didn't expect to hear that Hou Ye was attacked, and I was very worried, so I came to visit."
The sudden arrival of Pei Xuan, the prince of King Gong, surprised both Yan Xiu and Tan Cheng, Tan Cheng personally stepped forward and greeted Pei Xuan: "Did the prince come to visit Yanhou?" ”
Pei Xuan returned the salute, his voice was soft, and he said slowly: "One came to visit, the other came to ask about the situation, the capital is important, the imperial court is a member of the capital suburbs attacked, such a major event, even the emperor is extremely angry, I am specially ordered to inquire one or two, if you have a clue, you can directly hand it over to the cabinet, and the military aircraft department will deal with it." ”
Tan Cheng glanced back at Yan Xiu, who was sitting on the edge of the bed supported by Yan Zhaohua, Xie Shi saw Yan Zhaohua, his eyes were shocked, she just left for a moment, why did Yan Zhaohua come? But he remained silent, walked to the side of the bed, took over Yan Zhaohua's movements, and helped Yan Xiu sit up.
Tan Cheng walked up to Yan Zhaohua and said: "Don't be afraid, niece, this is the prince of King Gong, he will greet Yan Hou instead of the cabinet, and tell everything you saw and heard last night, don't omit anything, even if you think it's strange, you can also say everything." ”
Yan Zhaohua looked at Tan Cheng, and then at Pei Xuan, whose eyes were like electricity, Yan Zhaohua's heart tightened for no reason, and he heard Pei Xuan say: "The eldest lady doesn't have to be afraid, just speak directly." ”
Yan Zhaohua's mind inexplicably remembered the words of the black-clothed leader who held her hostage last night, if he talked nonsense, he would find her boudoir and kill her! Yan Zhaohua took a deep breath and told the people present about last night's events in a coherent manner, saying similar to what she said to Yan Xiu last night, directly ignoring her own role, only talking about the killing scene she saw, and not mentioning anything about Jinyiwei or Jinyiwei, because she felt that in fact, these people may have already made a judgment in their hearts, but they just wanted to confirm it again through her mouth, at this time, no matter what she said, it would not play a key role in the incident. After all, no one would deduce the case with the words of a frightened boudoir girl, and asking her is just a formality.
After Yan Zhaohua finished speaking, Tan Cheng and Yan Xiu both fell into deep thought, but Pei Xuan stared at Yan Zhaohua with interest, not at all reserved as a foreign man should have, Yan Zhaohua glared at him secretly, Pei Xuan's black eyes moved, and then obediently withdrew his gaze.
Things are indeed as Yan Zhaohua said, asking her is just a formality, and after asking, Yan Xiu let Yan Zhaohua go back and rest.
Yan Zhaohua saluted everyone and said goodbye, and slandered all these tossed people in his heart, but his face was silent, and he walked out harmoniously and generously.
When he came, he was led, and when he went back, he didn't have this honor, Yan Zhaohua walked alone in the garden of the Qingque Residence, but after walking two steps, he was stopped by someone and said:
"Miss Yan, stay."
Yan Zhaohua looked back, it turned out to be Pei Xuan, who was smiling at the corner of his mouth, and subconsciously looked around, there were not many people serving in Yan Xiu's yard, and this garden was no exception, Pei Xuan saw this girl looking around from a distance, and he felt even more funny in his heart, this girl's behavior seemed to be different from others, if the girl next to her was shouted by the man in private, her first reaction was blushing and cramped, but she was surprised to be calm, not only was she not cramped, but she was more worried about whether she would be seen.
"The Prince...... Anything else you'd like to ask? ”
Yan Zhaohua would not be a nymphomaniac to think that someone like Pei Xuan would come over to talk to her, it must be for the sake of Yan Xiu's attack, so he asked.
Pei Xuan hooked his lips and smiled, born with charm, Yan Zhaohua slandered in his belly, and he didn't know how King Gong and Princess Gong were born, and they actually gave birth to such a bechanting son, so that men and women couldn't hold it when they saw it, if she was really a twelve-year-old girl inside, maybe in the future, she would have to regard this son who was looking for her to talk in private as a person in her dreams.
However, Pei Xuanke didn't know what Yan Zhaohua was thinking at the moment, so he hooked his lips and said:
"There's nothing special I want to ask. I just think that the eldest lady is different from ordinary girls, and she is not alarmed, I know that the situation last night was difficult and dangerous when I heard the young lady's description, but the girl is not only fearless, but she can wait calmly and wait for the reinforcements to arrive, even Tan Hou can't help but praise the girl, saying that when he found you, you were stopping the bleeding in Yanhou, you are really a heroine among women, Pei Xuan admires such a woman the most. ”
“……”
Pei Xuan's words made goosebumps all over Yan Zhaohua's body, this specious compliment, listening to Yan Zhaohua's ears, not only did he not feel happy, but also had a sense of shame, what does this Pei Xuan mean? Is it to praise her, or to damage her in disguise? But no matter what, Yan Zhaohua felt that Pei Xuan was not very reliable, and he didn't know anything about the inspection in the garden of other people's homes.
"Much, thank you for the compliment. If nothing else, I'll quit. Yan Zhaohua didn't know what Pei Xuan wanted to do, so he didn't dare to stay longer, so he wanted to leave.
But when he turned around, he heard Pei Xuan say again:
"The young lady looked flustered and seemed to have something to hide."
Yan Zhaohua stopped suddenly, not daring to look back at Pei Xuan, and when he was struggling, he heard a male voice suddenly sound in his ears: "I'm joking, don't take it to heart, Miss." ”
Yan Zhaohua only felt that his ears were numb, but his heart was tight, covering his ears, his body stiffened, after Pei Xuan finished speaking, he didn't entangle, but went around to Yan Zhaohua's front, hugged his fist at her, and then wrapped his cloak and left.
Yan Zhaohua looked at his departing back, his cheeks were hot, but not because of shyness, but because of anger, this Pei Xuan was too ...... It's so arrogant! But listening to him, could it be true that he really knew something?
