Qin Nanxi understood, turned to the coachman and said, "You move forward slowly, and I will come later." ”

The coachman got the order, and as soon as he flicked the whip, the carriage staggered and went, gradually getting smaller and smaller.

Qin Nanxi walked forward slowly, and Situ Chong led the horse and accompanied her.

"Nanxi, the eldest brother's injury is actually the hand of this Assuf." Situ Chong hesitated for a long time before breaking the silence.

"I know, although I don't know pharmacology, I know a little bit about it. Poison is a recipe that is secretive, and if it is not the person who dispenses the poison, it will naturally not be able to detoxify. Qin Nanxi said lightly, but she felt more relieved in her heart. She believed him, and sure enough, she was right.

Situ Chong was obviously stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he slowed down for a moment before he continued: "I know that this Asufu has a wife who disappeared in the northern Xinjiang area more than ten years ago, you, you can try to find her, with his wife here, he shouldn't hurt the eldest brother." ”

This time, Qin Nan was stunned, she didn't expect that as innocent and bright as Situ Chong, she could also use such a dark method when she wanted to protect her brother. It seems that things have changed, she has changed, and he is a little different.

Holding back his thoughts, Qin Nanxi said: "What is the origin of this Assuf?" And what about his wife? ”

"You know, the second brother usually doesn't talk to me about these things. I've only heard a few of them occasionally when they're chatting. Situ Chong pursed his lips and replied a little awkwardly.

Qin Nanxi smiled and said thoughtfully: "You don't care about these things, and I can't blame you." ”

Situ Chong smiled gratefully and continued: "This Asufu seems to have come to Chang'an more than ten years ago, and he is indeed a miracle doctor. He cured many of the old and stubborn diseases of many people in the palace. I heard that when he first came to Chang'an, whenever he climbed into a noble eunuch, he didn't care about it, and asked people to help him find a wife. But I don't know why, but after less than a year, he didn't talk about it again. The good thing is that he thought that he had married a new lady in Chang'an, so he forgot about his old wife. But recently, I deliberately went to check, and I didn't find that he had settled the family business in the long term. According to the recollection of those who were begged by him at the beginning, his wife disappeared on the border of Beidi, as if she was detained by someone. ”

Qin Nanxi listened quietly, and slowly looked at Situ Chong. She has always been in the whirlpool, and she knows that Asuf's path may be the key to many things. She didn't expect that Situ Chong, who had always been out of the way, also saw through this, and secretly investigated Asouf's origin.

Situ Chong didn't know Qin Nanxi's thoughts, so he only tried to explain clearly: "It is said that Asufu's wife is extraordinarily beautiful, and the two of them have known and loved each other since childhood, and their feelings are deep. At the beginning, the two went to Chang'an together to make a living, but they didn't want to, but they met an unknown bandit halfway and robbed his wife. Some people say that they have seen his wife in Beidi, some people say that she was robbed by the Beidi nobles to be a wife, and some people say that she was imprisoned in the Beidi royal court. ”

After a slight pause, Situ Chong stared at Qin Nanxi and said sincerely: "These, although they are not accurate news. But Yun Ze is under the jurisdiction of the eldest brother after all, and the eldest brother wants to send someone to investigate, which should be much cheaper. As long as this woman is found, Asouf should be very grateful to the eldest brother and will not hurt the eldest brother again. ”

Qin Nanxi nodded, the confusion and worry in her heart were gently brushed away by these important information. If Asuf really has such a beloved wife missing, then I am afraid that the person who Asuf serves is the one who has taken his beloved wife captive. As long as Asouf's wife is in northern Xinjiang, she is confident that she can find her. The thoughts that had been depressed for a long time seemed to be seeing the sunlight in the clouds, and a ray of clarity was leaked in an instant.

Raising his eyes and staring at Situ Chong, Qin Nanxi quipped: "I didn't expect that you, the pure and clean third young master, also know these?" ”

Situ Chong shook his head and said helplessly: "I just don't want to, I don't want the eldest brother and the second brother to ......" After all, he couldn't say anything about Xiao Wall's killing, so he was silent, and looked down at the fallen leaves at his feet.

"Situ Chong, there is one thing, I have never figured it out, why does your second brother have to force Brother Yi to the death?"

Situ Chong was stunned when he heard this, and he slowed down for a moment before saying, "Brother Yi? Oh, speaking of which, I'm two years older than you, but I've never heard you call me brother! He used a very deliberate smile on his lips to hide the loss in his words.

Qin Nanxi was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and didn't dare to look at him again. But I heard him answer: "These things are actually not the fault of the eldest brother at all. My mother is taboo about the eldest brother, and always talks about how my father loves the eldest brother in front of the second brother. For a long time, the second brother is like a demon, and he is against the eldest brother everywhere. Later, the eldest brother joined the army and went to northern Xinjiang, and the second brother actually made the decision and wanted to marry his sister to a low-level official family in Lingnan. Fortunately, my sister was clever, and took the opportunity of the first emperor's birthday banquet to show off her style, a riding performance, and she was immediately pointed out by the first emperor to King Changping as a side concubine. It's a pity that my sister is such a big beauty, just because she is not my mother's biological child, she can only be a side concubine after all. Until, until...... was posthumously named a concubine. Speaking of his late half-sister Situ Linlang, Situ Chong choked up and burst into tears.

Qin Nanxi quietly handed over her embroidered handkerchief, and persuaded her in a low voice against her will: "Fortunately, my sister and the prince are deeply in love, and they are also relieved to talk." She understood that Situ Chongding didn't know the true nature of Prince Changping, so why did she make him even more desperate for people's hearts?

Waiting for Situ Chong to recover from his grief, Qin Nanxi said again: "Between your two brothers, are you just incompatible for these things?" ”

Situ Chong let out a long sigh, lowered his head and said helplessly: "It would be nice if it was so simple." The uncle vigorously supported the second brother to ascend the throne, to put it bluntly, it was to help the new emperor ascend the throne. The eldest brother has always been a loyal servant of the former prince's humerus, how could his uncle let go of the eldest brother? Uncle did this, in the final analysis, for the sake of their Xiao family, how could he care about the children of the Situ family killing each other? ”

"In the end, it's for power. Only one power can make father and son kill each other, and brothers kill each other! Qin Nanxi stared at the sadness and helplessness between Situ Chong's eyebrows, and also felt deeply sad. He and she were originally simple and pure people, but they were involved in one dispute after another for no reason. Now that the opposing sides are their dearest and dearest, how are they going to deal with themselves?

"Nanxi" Situ Chong called softly.

Qin Nanxi looked up in response, only to see that under his dark and bright eyes, there was a touch of depth and heaviness that she had never seen before.

"Nanxi, I beg you, please tell my eldest brother, no matter when and where, I will always be his younger brother. beg him to read it for his father's sake and forgive the second brother's confusion. If, in the future, one day in the future......" Situ Chong opened his mouth, but finally swallowed the words. He is the last person in the world who wants to see "that day".

Qin Nanxi nodded, and said bitterly: "How do you know, one day, it's not your second brother who ...... your eldest brother?"

"Nanxi, it's not too early, you should hurry as soon as possible!" Situ Chong interrupted Qin Nanxi's words and said hurriedly. Whether it was the eldest brother attacking the second brother, or the second brother attacking the eldest brother, he didn't want to listen to it, or even dare to think about it.

Qin Nan was stunned, nodded, and bowed deeply. In the final analysis, what she owes him is not only the help at the gate of Fangcai, but also the important information about Assuf, and the ten years of his devotional companionship, wholehearted care, and current wholehearted fulfillment.

Situ Chong looked at her mournfully, took a deep breath, and called in a low voice: "Nanxi~" Before his voice fell, he suddenly raised his head, looked at the far northwest, and said in a moist voice: "I'm afraid that when I say goodbye, I will have to call you sister-in-law!" Say goodbye. Nanxi, take care all the way! ”

As he spoke, he shook his body, turned over and jumped on the horse's back before he could get up, and walked away without looking back.

Qin Nanxi looked at his increasingly faint figure in the smoke and dust, and bowed deeply......
