Chapter 54: A Daughter

Chongju, a few hours after Haining left, Xu Hua, who was lying on the bed, finally opened her eyes slowly, and when Jiuyue saw her mother open her eyes, her face was full of joy, she reached out and gently took her hand, and asked with concern.

"Mother, you're awake, what's wrong?"

Xu Hua turned her head to look at her, reached out and stroked her fair cheeks, and said with a light smile, "Mother is fine, I worried you and Qiuyu's girl." ”

"No, mother." Jiuyue said with a smile, holding the hand on her face with one hand, quietly enjoying this moment.

At this time, Qiuyu, who was holding the decoction, walked in and saw Xu Hua wake up, hurriedly put down the decoction in his hand, walked quickly to Xu Hua's bed, and said excitedly.

"It's great that you're finally awake, ma'am."

Xu Hua glanced at her with a smile, her eyes were gentle, Jiuyue turned her head to look at Qiu Yu, and said with a smile, "Qiu Yu, you hurry up and bring the medicinal soup." ”

"Hmm." Qiu Yu answered, turned around and picked up the medicinal soup on the table and walked over, Jiuyue took the medicinal soup, glanced at Xu Hua on the bed, and said softly.

"Mother, I'll feed you medicine."

Xu Hua nodded, Jiu Yue smiled, while blowing the medicinal soup, while feeding her to drink, after a while, a bowl of medicinal soup had bottomed out, Qiu Yu hurriedly took the medicine bowl from Jiu Yue's hand, handed her the silk handkerchief that had been prepared, and asked her to wipe the medicinal juice on Xu Hua's mouth.

After a bowl of medicinal soup was put down, Xu Hua's sleepiness came again, Jiuyue saw that she was tired, and took the lead in speaking, "Mother, this medicine has a bit of a hypnotic effect, you can rest for a while." ”

"Okay." Xu Hua replied groggily, then closed her eyes, Jiuyue pulled the quilt on her chest for her, and then got up and walked out with Qiuyu.

As soon as he left the dormitory, Qiuyu opened his mouth to persuade, "Miss, now that Madame is safe and sound, you can go down and rest early, and leave the rest to Qiuyu." ”

Jiuyue glanced at her and said with a light smile, "Qiuyu, didn't you rest either?" Now that my mother is fine, you can send two maids to take care of it, and let the maids inform us when my mother wakes up."

"Miss, this .........." Qiu Yu hesitated a little uneasily, but was interrupted by Jiuyue, "What, that?" Qiuyu, my mother still needs our care now, we can't fall down at this time, only take advantage of my mother's rest time to recuperate, you know. ”

"Got it, miss, then Qiuyu will go down and arrange it." Qiuyu compromised and said, she thinks that what Miss said is indeed reasonable, Mrs. still needs their care, they can't fall, now just take advantage of Mrs.'s rest time to quietly dream, so that they can have a better spirit to take care of Mrs.

Jiuyue knew that her head was open, and smiled indifferently, "You go." ”

………………

On the other side, a lot of young men suddenly disappeared in Danyang Town, making everyone panic, even after which young master of the family above the town went to the Qinglou, he also disappeared in the Qinglou, and now the Qinglou has been surrounded by the Fang family, and the old bustard has also been brought into prison by the county catcher.

At this time, Nangong Duyu, who had returned to Danyang Town from Beijing, walked into an inn, and Dongzi, who followed closely behind him, panted and wiped the sweat beads on his forehead.

Nangong Duyu found a place by the window and sat down, Dongzi took off the burden he was carrying, and sat opposite him, and the shopkeeper followed closely, looking at the two of them dressed luxuriously, and said very politely.

"What do you want to eat, two guest officers?"

Nangong Duyu turned his head to look at the little er, and said with a smile, "Just have a little bit, it's best to match meat and vegetables." ”

The shopkeeper nodded again and again with a smile, "Okay, guest officer, please wait a moment." ”

After saying that, he took a white towel and put it on his shoulder and walked in the direction of the kitchen.

Nangong Duyu put away the fan and put it on the table, then picked up the teapot on the table, poured a cup of tea, and tasted it slowly.

Seeing him so leisurely, Dongzi said worriedly, "Childe, I'm afraid that we will worry the eldest prince if we sneak out like this, let's go back." ”

Nangong Duyu raised her eyebrows and looked at him, and said unhappily, "Go back?" Where to go back? Now that I'm out, I don't plan to go back, so if you want to go back, go back. ”

Dongzi looked like he wanted to cry without tears, he knew that Childe would not listen to him, and it was not good to speak, he was afraid that if he said anything again, maybe Childe would immediately throw him out of the inn, and finally chose to be silent, and picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea to suppress his shock.

At this time, a few more men walked in, Nangong Duyu glanced at them, and then moved his gaze to the window, and the men sat behind them, gossiping.

"Have you heard?"

"What did you hear......

"Don't you know that a lot of men have disappeared in the town for no reason lately? Even the young master Fang of the Fang Zhi County family disappeared from the Qinglou for no reason, do you say that there is something unclean in our town? ”

"It's hard to say."

Listening to their gossiping, Nangong Duyu's brows were tightly knitted, and Dongzi, who was sitting opposite, listened to what the men said, and his face became a little unnatural.

After a while, the shopkeeper put the dishes on the table, and the men sitting behind them also left, Nangong Duyu took out a silver ingot from his cuff and handed it to the shopkeeper, asking by the way.

"Little second brother, those guest officers just now said that a lot of men have disappeared in this town recently, what is going on?"

The shopkeeper took the silver, was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a stern face, "Guest officer, are you from afar?" ”

Nangong Duyu nodded, and then the shopkeeper continued, "No wonder the guest officer doesn't know about such a big thing, since the guest officer asked, then I'll tell the guest officer about it." ”

"This has to start a few days ago, that day I went shopping, happened to pass by the door of the drunken moon building, and heard them say that there was an oiran in the drunken moon building, and it was very beautiful."

"And then?" Dongzi on the side asked curiously.

The shopkeeper smiled, and then said, "Then which sons and daughters did not hesitate to spend a lot of money in order to see the beauty, just to see the Oiran and spend a night with her." ”

"But the men who spent time with her disappeared the next day, and now the drunken moon building has been sealed, and the old bustard has also been put in prison by Fang Zhixian."

When Nangong Duyu heard him say this, she frowned, a complicated color flashed in her eyes, and then asked, "Since the Drunken Moon Tower has been sealed, which Oiran is it?" ”
