Chapter 387: Answer
When Goldfinch walked to the gate of the courtyard where Granny Ann lived, she happened to meet a maid coming out of it, holding a tray with an empty bowl on it. Because there was more than one Granny An living in this small courtyard, there would naturally be other people coming in and out, so the golden finch carefully moved out of the way, and deliberately smiled kindly at the maid. The maid glanced at her, bowed slightly, and walked away with her face down.
The golden finch couldn't help but chase her back and look at it twice, inexplicably, she suddenly had a strange feeling in her heart, but at this time she didn't think much about it, subconsciously frowned and withdrew her gaze, and hurriedly walked to Granny An's house.
However, the golden finch didn't know that the maid just now came out of Granny An's room and poured a bowl of medicine on Granny An, because someone wanted Granny An to die tonight.
This courtyard is deserted, except for the maid just now, I can't see half a figure, thinking of Granny An's life and death at this time, the golden finch is sour. When she came to the door, she knocked lightly, but there was no sound inside, and then she called out again: "Mother-in-law, I am the goldfinch." β
There was still no sound in the house, and Goldfinch thought that Granny Ann was asleep, so she tried to retreat the door, only to find that the door was hidden. She pushed open the door and walked in, the room was quiet, but the light was on, and when she walked to Granny An's bedside, she found that Granny An was awake, but her face was not very good.
"Mother-in-law......" Goldfinch was a little flustered, knelt beside the bed, and said cautiously, "Mother-in-law, I'm Goldfinch, are you okay Mother-in-law, don't scare me." β
Granny An then turned her eyes and looked at the goldfinch for a while. seemed to recognize the goldfinch, and then said hoarsely: "It's the goldfinch, what's the matter, it's here here?" β
"I'm coming to see you." The golden finch wiped her eyes, and saw that Granny An had the intention of getting up, so she hurriedly stood up and helped, "Tonight is the Mid-Autumn Festival, Mr. Cui and they have all gone to the nine-storied pagoda, and An Lan can't get out, so I'll come over to see you." Goldgarinch helped Granny Ann up and leaned against the head of the bed. I brushed her hair again. Then he said, "Mother-in-law, do you feel very uncomfortable?" β
Granny An did not respond to this sentence, and her face was slightly distracted. It's like remembering something. Perhaps before death. will remember their lives like this. Maybe she knew there would be such a day, so when the moment really came, she didn't have too much fear. On the contrary, I was a little grateful, I didn't expect that I could walk so quietly, and there was an ignorant child by my side.
She and Yan Niang followed Miss when they were teenagers, and they can be regarded as watching Miss grow up. She remembered that when she was in Qinghe, Miss valued both of them equally, but since she entered the Yuheng Palace, because Yan Niang's mind was more active, Miss valued Yan Niang more and more, and slowly snubbed her. And Mr. Anqiu is a person who is good at capturing people's hearts and has the means, at that time, he was good to the young lady, and he was also very good to their subordinates. She didn't know when she had been obedient to Mr. Anqiu, and finally completely used by him. People's hearts can really be calculated like this, and even if she knew that she was being used later, she had no choice and had to let it go.
And because of that child, she made irreparable mistakes. When she was expelled from the Yuheng Hall by the young lady herself, she knew that her fate with the young lady really ended here. However, whose fault is it? After so many years, she still can't figure it out, maybe her jealousy and greed are the cause, Mr. Anqiu's calculation is helping, and in the end, it was Bai Chun who pushed her hard, and finally pushed her into an irreparable situation.
The young lady should have known that she was doing something for Mr. Anqiu, otherwise she would not have deliberately sent her to Mr. Anqiu to inquire about the news. But when did you find out? It should be...... After she returned to the Yuheng Palace, if she had known back then, according to Miss Miss's temper, she would not have been spared no matter what.
But now it's useless to think about anything, Granny An closed her eyes slightly, and when she was sent back, Mr. Anqiu told her that he would not kill her, but in the Changxiang Palace, there would definitely be people who wanted to take her life. Because whether An Lan is Cui Wenjun's child or not, her death will become an irreconcilable contradiction between An Lan and Cui Wenjun. Bai Guanghan's help was enough, and they never wanted to add another Cui Wenjun.
It's just that, even so, Anqiu still put the poison left by Bai Chun on her and handed the antidote to Miss. She was a little surprised, in the face of the answer, the young lady actually hesitated for two days, even if the reason for this hesitation was not because she cared about her, but she still felt ...... I feel that since I am happy, I feel guilty, and there is still a trace of confusion.
If you could do it from beginning to end, serve the young lady wholeheartedly, and don't think about anything else, now you should be like Mama Yan.
Thinking of this, the look of confusion in her eyes became heavier, and the golden finch kept looking at her, although she didn't know what she was thinking, but when she saw that she didn't say a word, her face became worse and worse, and she almost cried: "Mother-in-law, how are you?" I, I'll goβ"
Granny An suddenly raised her hand, waved it at her, and shook her head again: "I'm fine." β
The goldfinch sniffed before saying, "Mother-in-law, don't worry, An Lan and I will definitely find a way to get you the antidote." An Lan also said that when the time comes, she will take you to the Tianshu Palace, so that you can live by her side for a long time. β
"Over the years, it's really, no, I hurt her in vain." Granny An had a faint smile on her face, and her voice was low, "Tonight is the night banquet of the incense master, but unfortunately, I can't see it anymore." β
The golden finch didn't pay attention to the mystery in Granny An's words, and hurriedly said: "It's okay, An Lan will come to see you in a while, and she will definitely come over with the jade plate of the incense master, mother-in-law, in the future, our An Lan will be a serious incense master!" β
"yes...... In the future, she will be able to live well without me taking care of her. Granny An had a smile on her lips, but it was a pity that she couldn't see the child's beautiful moment, but there was one thing she still wanted to take a look at before closing her eyes.
"Plantagenet." Granny An suddenly spoke, "You go outside, fold a camellia for your mother-in-law, and ask for a pink one." β
The goldfinch was puzzled: "Why did my mother-in-law suddenly ask for camellias?" Do what? β
Granny An said, "Go ahead." β
The goldfinch looked at Granny An in confusion, and got up obediently. I found flowers and cut them out of the door. Granny Ann trembled her hands, took out a pill wrapped in wax clothes from her close-fitting pocket, looked at it, and then sighed softly. Bai Chun actually left more than one antidote, she asked Anqiu not to sue Miss SΓΉ now, she wanted to know if Miss would hesitate when facing this matter.
Granny An showed a little bitterness on her face, in the end, at the end of the day, she was sorry for Miss.
Camellia is planted everywhere in the Yuheng Palace. The goldfinch soon found a pink camellia that had just bloomed. Carefully cut it out and took it in.
Granny An got up slightly: "You take that bottle, bring it over, and then ...... Pour a bowl of water into it. β
The goldfinch brought the bottle of water and the camellia to the bedside: "Mother-in-law." Are you going to raise flowers? β
Granny Ann handed the pill to the Golden Finch: "Crush it." Put it in water. β
The goldfinch became more and more confused. He took the pill and looked at it: "Is this something that specializes in raising flowers?" She said as she complied.
Granny Ann watched as the crumpled pill dissolved into the water, and then picked up the camellia. Insert into the bottle.
Cui Wenjun didn't know, and Anqiu didn't know either, when Bai Chun played these tricks with Cui Wenjun and said those jokes, she heard and saw them. All along, she didn't know what the mystery was here, until Anqiu gave her the poison left by Bai Chun and relayed Bai Chun's words to her, that she remembered the things she had noticed but didn't care about.
That child was taken away because of her mistakes, if An Lan was really the child back then, then she did her best to take care of the past few years, which can be regarded as making up for her mistakes back then.
"Mother-in-law, look, this flower has changed, it has changed color!" Not long after the camellia was inserted into the vase, the color of the petals was gradually fading, and the goldfinch exclaimed, "Is it the relationship with the small pills just now?!" It's amazing, mother-in-law, it turns out that Yuheng Hall raises flowers like this! β
It's just that at this time, Granny An did not have a little surprise on her face, on the contrary, when she saw that the pink of the petals was getting lighter and lighter, her brows frowned. Is it really wishful thinking? But at this moment, when the pink color was faint to almost white, the color suddenly began to deepen again, first the color of the petal veins increased, then the center of the flower, and then slowly expanded to the periphery, expanding to the whole corolla!
Plantagenet was stunned: "It's changed again!" β
At first it is light purple, then blue-violet, and finally a bejeweled deep purple.
Granny Ann looked at the purple camellia in a daze, and slowly, there was wetness in her eyes, but then, she felt that her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, so she raised her eyes and looked at the golden finch.
"Mother-in-law?" The Golden Bird didn't know what was wrong with Granny An, so she shouted cautiously.
"Mother-in-law, I'm tired and want to sleep for a while." Granny An suddenly smiled, her voice was extremely gentle, "You go and see An Lan, it's not too early, you two will ...... later." We must all be good, we must support each other, and we must not be suspicious of each other. β
Somehow, the golden finch always felt that there was something wrong with Granny An's tone, but she didn't know what was wrong, it might be a poison attack in her body, so she was a little anxious and said: "Mother-in-law! β
"Mother-in-law is really tired, you can go quickly." Granny An said, and looked at the camellia again, "Also, you bring this camellia over...... Give it to Mr. Cui, if she asks you anything, you will answer truthfully. β
Granny An's eyelids kept drooping downward, as if she was really tired, Plantagenet stood up sneeringly, helped Granny An lie down, and probed her forehead carefully, seeing that there was no fever and her breathing was normal, so she relaxed a little, and then picked up the camellia together with the bottle: "Then, then I'll go first, Mother-in-law have a good rest, Ming'er, well, I'll come to see you with An Lan in a while." β
Granny Ann closed her eyes and nodded slightly.
The goldfinch took the vase in his hand and went out three times in turn.
And not long after she walked out of the Yuheng Palace, Granny An's breathing and heartbeat slowly stopped, and she walked very peacefully.
β¦β¦
Nine-storied pagoda, more than 200 steps, An Lan felt that she seemed to have been running non-stop tonight, running in the fragrance realm, and still running after leaving the fragrance realm, her spirit and body were being squeezed, and the strength in her body was losing little by little. When she reached the seventh floor, she felt her legs sink more and more, and her chest even hurt a little because she was panting too quickly. But she didn't dare to stop, even if it was a breath, she didn't allow herself to stop.
Because even from several floors, she could clearly feel the terrifying power in the incense realm of the great incense masters below. That power was even more terrifying than when Fang Wenjian Great Incense Master broke into the Tianshu Palace, she didn't know what was going on below, but she could feel that there was a very familiar breath in that terrifying power, the breath of the gentleman.
The four of them had already come out of the iron cage, and they had all left the incense realm, but the great incense masters did not stop because of this, but intensified! With such a continuous use of the power of the incense realm, can the husband's body support it? She didn't dare to think about it, but she couldn't help but be anxious.
On the eighth floor, An Lan gritted her teeth hard, even though her speed was a few points slower than at the beginning, she didn't stop, and kept an eye on the front and back. She knew that Fang Yuhui walked out of the iron cage ahead of her, Fang Yuhui did not hide his murderous intentions in the iron cage, she didn't think that after getting out of the iron cage, and without any great incense master to take care of her, Fang Yuhui would do nothing.
What's more, each of them signed a life and death contract for this assessment.
However, until she ascended to the ninth floor, she still didn't see Fang Yuhui or Xie Lanhe.
The space on the ninth floor is much smaller and simpler than the first and second floors below, except for a few quaint chairs, a wide black lacquer offering table, and a few plain curtains of elegant colors. In addition, there are many paintings hanging on the walls, there are figures, there are landscapes, An Lan has no research on calligraphy and painting, I don't know the precious Cheng dΓΉ of each painting, because I don't look at it at a glance, but the county lord of Danyang, who came up behind her, was really shocked.
The incense master jade plate was placed on the offering table, and An Lan walked over quickly, but when she approached, she suddenly stopped.
The quieter it is, the more abnormal it is.
She held back her eagerness, carefully inspected the surroundings, and glanced at the Danyang County Lord next to her.
The county lord of Danyang shook his head slightly, and said in a low voice: "There should be no traps." β
An Lan frowned slightly: "What about the two of them?" β
The county lord of Danyang turned his head again and looked around, in fact, although it looked empty, there were still places to hide, such as behind the curtain and behind the pillars.
"Take the jade card first." The county lord of Danyang retracted his gaze and looked at An Lan, "How about we join forces in a while?" β
An Lan paused, glanced at the county lord of Danyang, and then nodded slightly.
So the two of them stretched out their hands to the last two incense jade tablets on the offering table at the same time, but the moment their hands touched the incense jade tablets, all the windows suddenly slammed and all opened! Tonight's wind is very strong, even if you stand on the ground, you will feel like you want to ride the wind, let alone the wind at the top of this tower.
All the candles were extinguished instantly, An Lan held the cold jade plate, and in the darkness, Xie Lanhe's eager voice suddenly came: "Be careful!" β
