Chapter 346: Being a villain in vain

It was only in the middle of the day that Yu Shufang came to her senses, groaned, and opened her eyes to see the dim neon gauze tent above her head, and a wisp of unfamiliar fragrance on the quilt on her body, which made her realize that this was not her bedroom.

"Ahem" she had phlegm in her throat, couldn't help coughing, she wanted to sit up lightly, she vaguely heard a man's low voice outside the door, and then the door was pushed open, and a person called "girl" softly, trotted to him, hung up the bed curtain, and by the candlelight in the room, Yu Shu saw a young face.

"Kidney beans?" Yu Shu looked at her maid who shouldn't have appeared here in a daze, stretched out her hand and let her help herself, and put a pillow behind her back.

"Girl, girl, wake up, the slave will pour you water." Kidney Bean's eyes were red, and he folded the quilt for Yu Shu, hurriedly picked up the soup and tea simmering on the stove, and fed it to her mouth with a cup.

Yu Shuzheng felt that his mouth was dry, so he swallowed a cup in small gulps, took a breath, his head ached slightly, his eyes were dull for a while, and he said, "Where is this." ”

"Girl, we're in the princess's mansion." Kidney Bean replied cautiously.

"Princess's Mansion," Yu Shu glared at him suddenly, sat up straight all of a sudden, looked at the hazy night outside the window, and said with a white face: "Nine Emperor Princes, Jing Chen, cough cough Shui Yun she-"

Speaking too quickly, Yu Shu coughed hard, blushed and wanted to get out of bed, Kidney Bean was startled by her, and didn't know whether to persuade or stop, at this time a voice came from outside the door, the tone was soft, but it was clearly conveyed, with a sense of comfort: "Ah Shu, you don't have to panic, the water girl has been rescued." ”

"Big brother?" Yu Shu asked uncertainly, looking at the swaying figure on the door.

"Well, it's me."

Yu Shu's whole body seemed to be empty, and he lay back again, gasping for breath and closing his eyes. He said softly: "She, how's it going?" ”

Xue Rui stood behind the door, through the door and window, as if he could imagine Yu Shu's hesitation at the moment. After hesitating, he replied lightly: "The water girl is there to take care of Daozi and the imperial doctor, you don't need to worry, you take care of yourself first." You lie down, and I'll go and ask Lang Zhong to come over. ”

There was no sound in the room, and Xue Rui paused for a moment. Walked towards the door, because I had stood here for too long, my legs were numb, and I took a few slow steps to clear my qi and blood.

Kidney Bean stood at the head of the bed, looking at Yu Shu's sallow face timidly, Nuo Nuo said: "Miss Er didn't come back yesterday when she went out, and the old lady was worried about the fire, it was Xue Gongzi who sent someone to deliver the letter at night." Hide it from your wife, and tell the master that you have stumbled and fallen into the river, and today I have brought a slave and maid to take care of you during the day. The old man was originally going to follow, but he was persuaded by Xue Gongzi"

Yu Shu was not surprised that Xue Rui would come forward to help her lie, after all, the matter of her and Shui Yun being arrested had a lot to do with it, how could it be publicized everywhere.

Besides, when she heard Xue Rui's tone just now, Shui Yun's situation didn't seem to be good.

Yu Shu pressed the corner of his forehead that was suddenly jumping, hiding things in his heart, but he didn't know who to confide in, or bury it in his heart and rot.

Not long after Xue Rui went, he brought an old man back. There are two imperial doctors in the princess's mansion now, but they all dare not leave half a step around Shui Yun, and when they come out of the palace, they don't know how many ears and eyes are connected to the road, Xue Rui kept an eye on it, and didn't want Yu Shu to be exposed. So I'd rather the imperial doctor not be free.

This old man was invited by Xue Rui to the inner courtyard of Shangshu Mansion, and on weekdays, he specially gave the young ladies of Xue Mansion a headache and brain fever, and there was no false title, and his medical skills were good.

Not in their own house, men and women should observe etiquette, Kidney Bean was taught by Zhao Hui, and before someone came in, he covered Yu Shu's quilt inside and out, only revealing a thin wrist, put down the gauze tent, and saw his face clearly.

Xue Rui couldn't rest assured, so he followed into the room together, stood on the side of the screen, and waited for the old man to ask for a consultation, during which his eyes fell on the corner of the bed, and when he saw Yu Shu's thin and well-defined forearm, two deep bruises, his face was not good, and he even felt a little less sympathy for the seriously injured and unconscious girl in the other room.

In his opinion, Yu Shu really suffered from an unwarranted disaster this time, and he was affected by others, if it wasn't for Shui Yun not running to find her, where would he encounter such a disaster.

Yu Shu absentmindedly replied to Lang Zhong a few words, asked where he was uncomfortable, and only said that he had a little headache, but Lao Lang Zhong was not surprised, observed her pulse, and went out to talk with Xue Rui.

"The eldest son, this girl's pulse is impetuous, the liver qi is insufficient and there is a state of detachment, the prescription should be based on calming the nerves, and then the lungs are moistened, recuperating for a few days, and a sweat will be great." The old man is old, and the prescription is more secure, not a major illness, and there are usually three or two supplements.

Xue Rui asked clearly, then asked someone to send him back to the house, arranged for someone to grab the medicine, and then turned back to the room, and saw Yu Shu's maid come out with a porridge bowl and salute him crampedly.

Xue Rui saw that there was still half of the bowl of porridge left, frowned slightly, waved her hand to send her down, walked to the bedroom door and stood for a while, listening to the coughing sound inside, turned around and retreated to the chair in the hall and sat down, even if he had something to ask Yu Shu, he didn't want to pick it at this time, and wait for her to be better tomorrow.

***

After a night of nothing, Yu Shuman thought that he would not be able to sleep, who wanted to drink the decoction in the middle of the night, and it was already dawn when he woke up again.

Kidney Bean slept on the short couch under the window, and when she heard her coughing, she got up, put on her clothes, poured warm water from the stove at Yu Shu's request, wiped her face, washed her hands and feet, and then went out to get breakfast.

Yu Shu was lying on his side with the quilt, looking at the wisteria incense burner on the coffee table not far away, and heard someone outside the door asking: "Ah Shu, are you awake?" ”

It's Xue Rui.

Why didn't he go back last night?

Yu Shu was puzzled, slowed down for half a beat, and responded: "Well, I'm awake." ”

She couldn't see Xue Rui's slightly haggard appearance outside the door, but her voice was refreshing: "Is it better?" I heard that you still have a cough, wait until you eat too early, and then drink the medicine. ”

Yu Shuyu hesitated and said, "I'm much better, what about the water girl?" ”

This is the second time that Yu Shu woke up in the middle of the night last night and asked about Shui Yun, Xue Rui thought that even if she hid it from her, she would know sooner or later, so she tactfully told her about Shui Yun's situation.

She injured her hands and feet, but Michiko and the imperial doctors tried their best to save them, and finally saved her limbs and recovered in the future. I'm afraid it's going to be harder to walk anymore. ”

Yu Shu breathed a sigh in his lungs, and when he heard him say this, his face quickly turned blue, and he didn't blame himself for it. That's impossible.

She vaguely remembered that yesterday morning she ran out of the cellar and rushed to the princess's mansion for help.

Although she doesn't know how Shui Yun was rescued. But apparently, they were late.

It was difficult for Yu Shu not to guess that Shui Yun had delayed treatment because of this, so that he lost his feet and could not be recovered.

She and Shui Yun had no enmity in the past and no resentment in the near future, not counting the few words of quarrel in the teahouse, there was no holiday at all, and seeing such a young and bright girl end up like this. I can't help but feel sorry.

Thinking of Jing Chen's love for his little junior sister, I felt faintly in my heart, and I didn't know how to face him in the future.

"Ashu, Ashu?"

Xue Rui called Yu Shu a few times outside the door. She came to her senses, pondered, and asked, "How did you find the water girl?" ”

Xue Rui knew that she would ask, so he didn't hide much, "After you were drugged and taken away in the teahouse, His Royal Highness Jiu and I searched around, guessing that someone was targeting the water girl, so Daozi came back from the palace early the next morning, and went into the palace to ask the emperor to make the decision, and the emperor specially ordered us to take people to search the mansion of several princes." Later, he found the water girl in King Jia's annex. ”

Jiawang?

Yu Shu's face was suspicious, she obviously heard it at the time, and the group of people said that the master was Liu Hao, the king of Ning!

Could it be that there is something else to be tired of here?

"So, did King Jia send someone to arrest us?"

"Hmm," Xue Rui's voice was a little flat through the door. "It is true that it was found on the head of King Jia, and in the anger of the saint, in addition to the title of the fourth prince, he was expelled from Beijing to reflect."

No, it's not Jiawang.

Yu Shu opened her mouth, wanting to tell Xue Rui what she heard when she was pretending to be faint in the cellar, but when the words came to her mouth, she suddenly woke up and swallowed back.

No, she can't say.

The matter has come to this point, and a prince in the hall has been taken out as a scapegoat, with one or two sentences from her, and there is no evidence, can she still delusionally find out the real murderer behind it?

Speaking of which, at most is a troublemaker, isn't there enough trouble on her?

Yu Shu made up his mind, tried his best to ignore the guilt of Shui Yun, and made up his mind to rot what happened in the cellar that night in the back of his mind, and never mention it to the second person.

At the same time, I also felt a sense of resentment towards Liu Hao, the king of Ning, who had met him several times, blaming him for being cunning and cruel, and letting himself be a villain in vain.

Xue Rui heard that there was no sound in the room, but he was afraid that Yu Shu would be cranky, and was thinking about how to open his mouth to comfort, but he heard Yu Shu begging: "Big brother, I want to go home, can you send me back?" ”

Xue Rui was intending to send her away as soon as possible, but just as she brought it up, she took the opportunity to say: "Well, Your Highness is still in the princess's mansion, I will go over to say goodbye on your behalf, and I will send you away when you drink the medicine." Yu Shu was only afraid that someone would detain her and not let her go, so she was relieved with Xue Rui's protection.

But said that Xue Rui went to find Liu Tan, Liu Tan didn't close his eyes last night, he looked tired, and heard that Xue Rui was going to send Yu Shu away, but he didn't immediately agree, but said: "You might as well stay with Miss Yu for half a day, I still have something to ask her." ”

Since Xue Rui spoke, he didn't mean to keep anyone at all, so he said: "I've asked, she, like the water girl, was drugged and taken away, and she didn't know anything, but she woke up a quarter and a half early before she could run back for help, and she couldn't ask anything." ”

Xue Rui deliberately concealed from everyone that Yu Shu was not drugged, just because he didn't want people to target her, even if he was facing Liu Tan, he didn't plan to explain it.

Liu Tan didn't doubt Xue Rui's words, thinking that Yu Shu was a woman, it didn't play a role, so he nodded and agreed that he would take someone away.

And Jingchen stayed in front of Shui Yun's bed from beginning to end, not leaving an inch, completely ignorant of the situation here, and waited until Shui Yun was out of danger during the day, and then thought about going to see Yu Shu, but learned from his subordinates that Xue Rui took people away an hour ago.
