Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Flower Shadow is Hard to Climb the Blue Sky and Be Thin
Xue Baoqin couldn't have imagined that Jiafu, who had sacrificed her life and forgot to die, couldn't shelter her at all, and she was brought to Xue Baochai. I was very happy to see my sister Xue Baoqin, but Baochai told him that the old lady was suddenly ill and didn't know what to do. The mandarin duck was waiting in the old lady's room, and he couldn't see it at all. The eldest lady went to the temple to make a vow, and she would not be able to come back for a while. Xiangling is strange, the old lady was fine yesterday, why is she sick like this today. Baochai said: "Yesterday, the old lady entered the palace and may have eaten something bad. Xue Baoqin was stunned for a moment, she really couldn't understand why. Xue Baochai said: Now that I heard you talk about the child, it seems that people can't know too much, maybe it is something that angers the royal family. Baoqin said that Baochai was very shocked by the child's matter, knowing that Baoyu was also involved in saving the child together, she sighed slightly: "Other people's children want to be saved, but their own children are ignored." Bao Qin happily, "My sister has a child." "I haven't asked the doctor to see it yet, the old lady is sick, and I can't take care of it for a while, but I just let me take care of it first and wait for my wife to come back." How can Xue Baoqin know the queen mother's thoughts, seeing her sister shaking her head like this, she knows that there is no one to call the shots in this matter. Go see the old lady yourself. Baochai didn't allow it, Baoqin didn't pay attention to it, no one could stop her, she saw the eunuch in the palace guarding the door of the old lady's room, she knew that there was a ghost, she used to play here, from the side wall to the girl's room, through the window to the old lady's room, and saw that the old lady who was kind in the past now only has one breath, where is the stomach broken, it is obviously poisoned. There were only mandarin ducks around, and I couldn't help crying.
The old lady looked at her and reached out to hold her hand, "My good boy, it's hard for you to come to see me, I'm going to die, just don't worry about a few people, it's good if you come." The mandarin duck also wiped her tears and said, "The old lady is dead, and I can't live alone, but the queen mother is too ruthless, nothing more than a public case, the old lady has never mentioned it to anyone in her life, and now all of a sudden, the old account is turned up, so good sisters turn their faces, and the old lady must die." Xue Baochai aroused a sense of pride, and said despite his tiredness and fatigue: "Old lady, I'll take you out." The mandarin duck said: "Now that this medicine has been drunk, where to go." The old lady said: "You took the mandarin duck out, they let the mandarin duck die, just wait for me to die and strangle your sister mandarin duck, I have tired this good child, you must save her." The mandarin duck calmed down: "Old lady, you just let me accompany you to die, and there is also a response on Huangquan Road." "I, Baoyu doesn't know that there is a murder now, your sister Lin's nursery is waiting for money to save her life, if you don't save her, you have to guard me as old as I am." You stupid boy, if you die, how many people will live and die, you have to give me life. After speaking, he couldn't take it in one breath, pointed to the warehouse, and handed over a bunch of keys to the mandarin duck, you have to find Xichun, her painting
Liu Xianglian knew that a girl who dared to save people in the midst of thousands of troops could not take away two children for selfish desires, so she ate a little food early the next morning, and everyone acted according to the previous discussion, Liu Zhenyuan was going to unite the local armed forces in various places, and Zhao Xin and Cuigu were familiar with the local situation and automatically asked Ying to lead the way. Xieyue Baoyu was very attached to it and volunteered to save Nie Qing, and Liu'er and You Lao Niang led the way. Ignoring everyone's objections, the flying kite and the vulture want to go back to the capital to find the Eagle King and discuss what to do in the future. They didn't believe that the King of Loyalty would do anything to them, or that he understood that they were just trying to protect the children, or that he would forgive them. Imperial Doctor Hu and his wife, Concubine Yuan and the second sister were taken away by Jia Zhu and sent to their own team to rest.
As soon as they got out of the valley, everyone was about to separate, but they saw flying kites and vultures hurrying in front of them with a few mountain people, it turned out that the Qing soldiers searched all the way to the mountains before leaving last night, and several farmers were burned, and there was a smell of burnt everywhere, because it rained a little in the mountains at night, and the women and children who were killed still had water droplets in their eyes and mouths. Some of them are obviously a family killed. A few mountain people were helping to clean up the corpses, but hundreds of people died at once, and where could they be cleaned up. Concubine Yuan and the second sister didn't dare to look at it, and Concubine Yuan even vomited bile.
Jia Zhu asked all the men to help bury the villagers, and the women to help collect the relics and cook the food. Everyone saw a woman fall on a basket that had been turned over, and her back was slashed several times, and the basket was stained with blood, and she couldn't help but vomit again, but she saw that there seemed to be something in the basket, and hurriedly called the second sister, and the second sister moved the woman, and everyone opened the basket, where, a child was still asleep, and the situation was urgent, and the woman covered her child with a basket, and fell on the basket where the child was hidden several times, and the sleeping child picked up a life.
Concubine Yuan held the child tightly, slowly stood up, and walked out of the farmhouse, she made up her mind that in the future, she must protect this child, and let this child know how his mother protected her.
She stood in this post-catastrophe land, tired and grieving, but for the first time she understood what it meant to be a mother.
When Duan Chuanxiu appeared in front of Feng Ziying, Feng Ziying was almost choked by a mouthful of water, his soldiers were on duty on the city tower, it was lunch break, he was resting alone in the hut next to the arsenal downstairs, seeing Duan Chuanxiu, he instinctively grabbed his sword first, but he felt empty, his sword was in the hands of another person, the two of them looked at him with a smile, he threw away the water bowl, without saying a word, stretched out his hand and hugged the three of them.
When they were only sixteen or seventeen years old, Duan Chuanxiu and Feng Ziying were Jinyiwei's best brothers, Liu Xianglian and Feng Ziying made more friends after the Qing soldiers entered the customs, because they didn't know each other, and because of Jia Zhu, the two of them had a relationship of life and death. The action of the three of them only lasted for a second before they separated, because there were too few opportunities to reveal their true feelings, Feng Ziying was Jia Zhu's nail hidden in the capital, and they couldn't expose him.
After briefly asking about the situation, the two of them quickly said goodbye, Feng Ziying stood at the head of the city and watched the two people go out from the corner gate, silently reciting blessings in his heart, but at the same time, he also saw a dazzling flash of light on the city tower, and he quickly jumped over.
On the top of the city wall here, a person with a telescope was observing Duan Chuanxiu and Liu Xianglian who had just walked away, where was this person the opponent of General Shenwu, and he was quickly captured, Feng Ziying took the telescope and looked at Duan Chuanxiu and Liu Xianglian, these two people were like they were under his nose, and even his eyebrows and eyes were very clear: he shook his head and twisted the focus, but he couldn't see clearly. "That's a good thing," he asked the man to help him adjust, and now he couldn't find the two of them anymore, but he could see pedestrians and vendors walking far away in the capital. The two soldiers locked this person in the dungeon where the prince of Beijing was interrogated on weekdays, Feng Ziying looked at this person's short figure and spoke stammering Mandarin, it turned out to be a Portuguese Jesus missionary, and asked him to find a translator who knew Portuguese. He deliberately did not interrogate how this man appeared above the city, but he showed great interest in the telescope.
The guard said: One of the prisoners sent by General Wu yesterday who understands Portuguese is better to call him.
Feng Ziying nodded to hurry up, saying that this telescope is really a good thing, you have to let this missionary teach himself, the missionary said that he knows Chinese, let Feng Ziying call the king of Beijing, he has important information, Feng Ziying laughed: "You are also called knowing Chinese, what you said for a long time, I don't understand, don't rush me to death." "Let the prisoner come, see that this person is heavily shackled, and there are two guards left by Wu Sangui by his side, saying that this person is tight, and the handsome man must not be careless. This man was a thin man, and he knew that this person was Nie Qing, so he asked him and the Portuguese to ask how to use the telescope. and let his soldiers go to accompany Wu Sangui's men to drink, the two did not dare to go, Feng Ziying laughed: King Beijing and your general are friends with each other, if there is anything to worry about, you can drink your bar with peace of mind. Here, one teaches and one learns, and the other translates, and they actually learn very seriously. The Portuguese was anxious, and said to Nie Qing: "You sue him, there are two very important thieves in the capital, you must sue your boss." Nie Qing translated a sentence and asked him again: "Who are you?" "I am an envoy from Portugal, and I have come to the Chinese emperor to express the meaning of our king, in the past our church helped the army of the Ming Dynasty, but now our king has changed, and will not help them anymore, I hope that the two countries can establish friendly relations." Nie Qing told Feng Ziying this. The two glanced at each other, and Feng Ziying said loudly: "You sue him, I know him Portuguese, thank you for this red-haired devil who cares so much about our country's affairs, we will definitely treat him well." Ask him if he can give me the telescope. The Portuguese was so happy that he immediately agreed. He also said that your prime minister, John Tong, wrote a book about telescopes, and I will also give it to you here. Feng Ziying asked Nie Qing to be taken down. Imprisoned in a felon. And let the Portuguese go. Quietly let the soldiers follow. Nie Qing turned on the dim light in the dungeon and opened a strip that Feng Ziying had hidden on his body. "The third brick in the left hand, the third watch tonight" He leaned his back against the brick, and reached out to feel an awl through the crack in the brick.
