Chapter 4: A Thought of the Wilderness

The hunt was over, Jin Ling and I returned to the palace, and in a few days, Yan Xuan invited Tianchi for me, he said that Tianchi was a miracle doctor, maybe he would cure my leg, the emperor agreed, and arranged for Tianchi to live in the Tai Hospital. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After taking the pulse, he took out a small but delicate hammer from the medicine box and gently knocked it on my kneecap, "Do you feel it?" He said, and then he struck it a few more times, and somehow I had a delusional dull feeling.

"It seems, it's a bit ......heavy," I said hesitantly, and he immediately asked, "can you feel my strength?" I nodded, and it seemed so.

He was a little pleased, "So it means that the tendons in your legs are still intact, but the bones are broken......" He got up and paced in place for a long time, looked at me and said, "Maybe I can heal your legs!" ”

He told me with great interest, "Cut the flesh off the leg, replace it with a whole bone, sew it up and put it in a plaster, and it will be fine!" "I looked at Tianchi as if he was a little enchanted, and I couldn't bear to interrupt him, I knew a little about him in the past few days, and he tried his best to cure me, and that kind of obsession with medical skills was beyond people's reach.

I didn't have much expectation, and since I woke up, I don't have any memory in my head, but I'm getting used to having bad legs, and I know that there are some things that I can't be demanding.

After getting out of the court, Liu Heng came back to me, and also heard Tianchi say about it, when he heard Tianchi say that there was a way, he immediately persuaded me to give it a try, I hesitated for a long time, not because I didn't want to try, but I was afraid that I would face the next few days after being disappointed again.

Seeing that my attitude was not clear, Tianchi bowed down to Liu Heng and said, "This matter has to be decided by the mother herself...... and then retired.

Liu Heng saw that I was like this, and he didn't force me, he changed the topic and talked about a lot of things outside of Mobei, my interest was gradually attracted by his words, but I was very curious about those countries other than Kui Qi, but my legs were inconvenient, if it was possible, I really wanted to go and see.

After the meal, Jin Ling pushed me to go to the Imperial Garden to relax, and when I arrived at a gazebo, I ran into Yan Xuan again.

"I heard from Tianchi that he has already thought of a way to cure your legs, why didn't he agree?" He sat in the pavilion, holding a jade flute in his hand, and said lightly.

I looked at my legs, and I didn't feel anything under the hem of my skirt, "I didn't say no, I was just thinking about ......"

He looked at me and said faintly, "Since I considered it, I didn't want to say yes!" ”

"If you're afraid of adding regrets, it's not like you!"

He knows what is in my heart! I was a little surprised! After saying that, he pointed to the two boxes on the stone table in the gazebo, and I realized that there was something on the stone table.

He opened one of the boxes and handed me the contents of the contents, "This is your thing, it was left in the house outside the palace, and now I will take it back for you, and it can be regarded as returning it to its original owner." ”

It was a beautifully crafted lute that seemed familiar, and before I could think of anything, he said, "I haven't heard you play the piano for a long time, can you play it for me again?" ”

I picked up the pipa and plucked a few tunes casually, and he played the jade flute, which could be in harmony with me.

After I went back, I thought all night, maybe it wouldn't hurt me to give it a try, and even if it wasn't cured, wouldn't it be the same as before?!

Liu Heng began to tell me the story again, this time the story is about the mermaids of Dongshengzhou, the mermaids have charming singing voices, but their faces are very ugly, and the tears they shed when they cry are all pearls, and the candles made of their bodies will never be extinguished!

I'm curious if there really are sharks in the world, and I'm also curious where Liu Heng found so many stories, and he always uses these strange stories to lull me to sleep before going to bed!

I whispered, "Brother Jinyu, I want to promise Tianchi's healing method!" ”

He scratched my little nose with his fingers and said, "You girl, didn't you hesitate at first, why did you figure it out now!?" ”

I said with some coquettishness, "Of course hesitation is to figure it out!" ”

He looked at me with starry eyes, leaned over to kiss me on the lips, and murmured, "Little fool......"

The next day, Liu Heng and I summoned Tianchi, I could see that he was more nervous than me, he seriously asked Tianchi about the detailed treatment, when he said that he wanted to find a new bone to put on, he said with some doubts, "Divine doctor, I don't know what this good bone is?!" ”

"Naturally, it's a woman's bone, and it's best to dig it up a short time ago!" Tianchi's seemingly simple tone, but what he said was earth-shattering.

Hearing him say this, I was shaken again, how could I feel at ease if someone else's healthy legs were cut off and replaced with me! I shook my head at Liu Heng, signaling that I didn't have to go any further.

After Tianchi left, Liu Heng asked me, "Why did you regret it again?" ”

I said, "Whether or not the Heavenly Blazing Method can heal my legs completely, I can't put another person's life on the line!" ”

After I finished speaking, Liu Heng smiled, comforted me and said, "Ge'er, you are very kind, but I never said that I would hurt innocent people!" As soon as the words fell, he continued, "Most of the female prisoners in the prison have already committed heinous crimes, and using their bones to heal you can be regarded as making up for their previous mistakes!" ”

"But......" I was about to speak, Liu Heng's slender index finger had already fixed my lips, "Don't say it again, the wife is the husband, I have the final say in this matter!" ”

--------------------------------------------

Liu Heng asked Tianchi to start preparing for my treatment as soon as possible, and gradually began to get busy these days, and there were many palace people around, and Liu Heng sent one more palace person named Xiao Nan to take care of my daily life, but I didn't see the figure of Jin Ling.

I asked the people around me where Jin Ling had gone, and everyone was at a loss until I got angry and said that if Jin Ling would never come again, they would not serve me, and a little palace maid blurted out in a hurry and said, "Niang Niang, don't drive us away - Aunt Jin Ling, she is being held in a violent room!" ”

The violent room is a place where palace people who have made a big mistake are tortured, how could Jin Ling be locked up in that kind of place?! And what crime did she commit again?!

"It was the emperor's own order to keep Aunt Jin Ling there—"

Thinking about the cause and effect, I suddenly seem to understand something, right......

As soon as Liu Heng entered the door, I opened my mouth and asked him, "Your Majesty ......"

He was taken aback, "Why do you call me that, Ge'er, haven't you always liked to call me Brother Jinyu?!" ”

"Your Majesty, where did you get Jin Ling, did you order her to be locked up in the violent room!" Hearing Jin Ling's name, Liu Heng was furious, "Who is not afraid of death to tell you these words?!" Then he softened his face and said, "Don't listen to their nonsense, Jin Ling has gone back to her brother's house in the countryside!" ”

I laughed when I heard this, I didn't expect him to lie to me, "Your Majesty, although I can't remember the past, but Jin Ling also told me that she was born in the family, and her mother was my mother's maid, so I gave birth to her, we grew up together, where did she come from the country brother!" I shouted at him.

He felt a kind of annoyance that the lie was exposed, and said angrily, "Jin Ling has committed the crime of deceiving the king, and I have ordered her to be sent to the violent chamber, and she does not repent, so I will use one of her leg bones to heal you!" ”

Jin Ling has always served me with all her heart, never dared to slack off, I am more important than herself, I am not blind, I can feel, how can she make mistakes!

"Anyway, there is no need to say it again, I have made up my mind!" Liu Heng left like this, without half a minute of gentleness in the past, I looked at his resolute figure, and collapsed to the ground weakly.

--------------------------------------------

"That girl named Jin Ling really can't stay ......" Liu Heng sat in Li Guan's palace, and said thoughtfully, that girl knows too much, sooner or later she will show her feet in front of the pavilion, isn't she a loyal slave, let her do her best this time!

"Your Majesty, this time the matter must definitely listen to the concubine, the concubine has been with that sister since she was a child, this slave relies on her loyalty to her sister, and often decides many things for her sister on her own, and she can't guarantee the relationship with Master Su in the past, and there is also this cheap maid who pulls fiber from the media!" Li Guanwan glanced at the big girl Qinghuan beside her, and Qinghuan immediately sent someone to bring a cup of carefully stewed tonic soup.

Liu Heng thought about Li Guanwen's words are not unreasonable, not only Jin Ling, but also Su Ruixun, it won't be too long to keep him, in the past, it was useful to keep him when Ge'er was not sober, now......

"It's a pity that Ge'er's heart is still on that girl's body! I didn't know that damn palace man actually brought the words into her ears! ”

"What does it matter! Sooner or later, my sister will understand the emperor's hard work, besides, the concubine looks, my sister is not without friendship with the emperor! Li Guanwan said with a smile, as for who spread the words to the ears of that, of course she knew very well, wasn't it the person she sent!

She served the tonic soup with her bare hands, "Your Majesty, you see, just talking patronizingly, the soup is cold, this concubine has been stewed for two hours!" ”

Since ancient times, a woman, laughter is a gentle knife, she Li Guanwen is confident that the emperor's mind will not always be on the body of that, sooner or later one day that angers the emperor, and the throne is still hers!

--------------------------------------------

Xiao Nan has been serving me wholeheartedly, for fear that I will be unhappy again, I know that Brother Jinyu is for my good, but Jin Ling is innocent, why does he insist on changing Jin Ling's leg to me?

I quarreled with him so much for Jin Ling, "Why does it have to be Jin Ling?!" ”

"I really said that Jin Ling committed a capital crime!" He came over to coax me and said softly.

"Then what crime did you say Jin Ling had committed!" I said to him unrelentingly, seeing that he was impatient, I blurted out in a hurry, "In this way, I will die, and the emperor has released the golden bell!" ”

"Your leg must be healed!" His determination was cold and persistent.

I looked at him as he seemed to be gradually becoming stranger, and suddenly somehow broke the teacup on the table, picked up a piece of broken porcelain and cut it at my wrist, "If you want to ruin another person's life, Shu Yingge can't do it......"

When he said this, he looked at me in shock, as if he couldn't believe it, "For the sake of an irrelevant person, you actually started hurting yourself again!" ”

Liu Heng suddenly remembered that three years ago, she also said this, "If the emperor wants the concubine to destroy the person he loves, please forgive the concubine ......for not being able to do it" Her refusal was so clear, then she could even say later, "If something happens to the queen of a country, the civil and military officials will definitely not sit idly by, today the concubine jumped from here and exchanged Su Ruixun's life, if he died, the concubine would accompany her......"

Before he could stop it, without even a little time for him to think about it, he looked at her, watching her jump off the observation deck, that kind of heartache, until she jumped off He didn't understand that he used the Su family as an excuse, just because he loved her, but because he wanted to revenge Ruixun......

"Ge'er, you put down that hurtful thing, I put the golden bell down......"

He looked at me with a vacant gaze, as if he had been greatly hit, "I let go of the golden bell, I will find someone else to ......"

I heard his promise and put the pieces down, but he stopped talking and turned away, and I felt as if I had broken his heart, and even I didn't expect me to do such a thing......

Jin Ling came back soon, and then she was just imprisoned, and no one was embarrassed for her, so I completely let go of my heart, but the emperor didn't come to see me for a long time......

During that time, from Xiao Nan's mouth, the news came that the emperor loved Concubine Li Guanwen very much, and when I heard that he was holding Li Guanwan and listening to the music in Shangyang Palace, my heart was a little stuffy......

In addition to Tianchi coming to check my pulse every day, there is still Yan Xuan left.

Yan Xuan would give me a book every day, and when I saw that there were many stories told to me by Liu Heng on the books he gave me, I became more and more depressed.

"What, upset?" Yan Xuan put down the book, looked at me, and asked thoughtfully.

I shook my head, "Not ......"

"I just remembered something...... "I said with a smile when I saw the miscellaneous book in his hand, "I don't know where you got these books, the things recorded on them are so strange!" ”

He flipped through the book in his hand, looked at me, and said in a deep voice, "There is a country here that I really want to go to, but I don't know if there is a chance in this life?" ”

I was a little curious and asked him, "Which one?" ”

"At the end of Mobei, there is a swamp, after that swamp, and then over the Qianming Mountain, there is a flat place, the people of the Yu Republic live there, legend has it that they have white feathers on their shoulders, just like birds......" He looked at me with a long and deep gaze, which made people voluntarily trapped in it, unable to extricate themselves.

"Will they fly, then?" I asked again.

He came back to his senses and smiled at me as if he remembered something, "I don't know!" ”

"Is there anything you'd like to go?" He seems to look at me with hope, those eyes, rare pure without a trace of impurities, the world is so big, I don't know where to stay tonight, Pingsha is thousands of miles away, a thought, thousands of rivers and mountains, a thought, the vicissitudes of life, I can no longer forget the eyes he looked at me......

--------------------------------------------

I asked the emperor to go out of the palace to relax, and he gave permission and ordered the eunuch to send me to the palace gate, maybe he was angry, my behavior that day really angered him.

When leaving, the gate of the entire palace was open, I looked at the city tower, he was not there, Yan Xuan rode a black Ugin horse, his voice was hoarse, and he didn't seem to be resting, "I'll send you back......"

I smiled to myself, took a deep breath, exhaled heavily, and said to him, "It's not like I'm not coming back!" It's just a matter of going out for a few days! ”

His thin lips moved, "I...", paused, the words were not spoken, shook his head slightly, turned around resolutely, I looked at his back in a daze, and lowered the curtain on the carriage...

The bumps in the carriage made a clasping sound on the road, I recalled Liu Heng's friendship with me on the same day in the carriage, I was his wife, but he was not only my wife, although he loved me, but this love, sometimes there will be cracks.

I touched my legs, but my heart suddenly longed for if it were normal legs, and maybe he and I wouldn't argue anymore.

Jin Ling sighed, "Miss, I'm sorry......" I took her hand, "What's wrong with you, it's me, it's my legs that are ......"

The carriage continued to move forward, and suddenly stopped at a busy city, Yan Xuan dismounted, lifted the curtain, handed me a bag of things, "Give-" and then put down the curtain again and ran on the horse with a blank face.

I opened the paper bag in confusion, and there was a dough inside, probably because I was afraid that I would be hungry on the way.

When I arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, my father had already cleaned up the Wanfang House for me, and I lived in it with Jin Ling and Xiao Nan, Yan Xuan saw that I was properly settled, so he left with confidence, and when he left, he said to me, "If you still feel bored, I will take you to a good place in a few days!" ”

I nodded in agreement.

It has been five days, the days of Wanfangju are very light, my legs and feet are inconvenient, although my heart is eager to walk around, but there is no great interest, there are many aunts who come to the house to ask to see, but they are all driven out by Jinling.

Jin Ling said that they were all people who saw the wind and steered the rudder, so I didn't have to pay attention to it, I was a little puzzled, but I didn't stop Jin Ling again.

"Second sister, see me! I'm Wanyu......"

I was looking at the miscellaneous notes that Yan Xuan brought out of the palace, when I was suddenly interrupted by a shout, "Jin Ling, go and see who it is!" ”
