Chapter 462: Manifest Promise
Hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan talked freely, like a strategist in the army, analyzing the pros and cons of the current situation, although the old man Ding on the side didn't understand this, he still felt that there was such an apprentice, and his face was quite bright.
But as soon as he heard Xiao Jinxuan mention the words of the elixir, and wanted to help Zhou Xianrui recover immediately, Old Man Ding couldn't get up.
Not only did his squinting eyes open suddenly, but he also pulled Xiao Jinxuan to the side as soon as he grabbed him, and then lowered his voice, blew his beard and glared anxiously and said:
"Jinxuan girl, if the old man guessed correctly, the panacea you just said will not refer to the tears of Hades. I can tell you, disciple, there is only one thing left in the world, and if you give it to Lord Rui, then there is no possibility of a complete cure for your own illness. I think it's for the sake of the royal boy that he is an apprentice of the old way, and the old man is indeed destined for this girl like you, so he is willing to take out his life-saving pill. You must think it through, otherwise you will regret being a teacher and you will really not be able to conjure up a second one. ”
Old Man Ding's voice was indeed very low at the beginning, but as soon as he was excited, he couldn't help but amplify his voice.
So in the end, what he said, everyone in the tent could hear it clearly.
And this will be the most exciting, except for Old Man Ding, it is Concubine Liang who stood up and walked to Xiao Jinxuan's side, and was overjoyed.
"Jinxuan, tell this palace quickly, do you really have an elixir in your hand that can heal Xianrui's injuries? Then why are you willing to take it out, he is the prince of my Great Zhou, and he can't afford to miss the slightest, if you are reluctant, my royal family will definitely take out the same amount of gold and silver or exotic treasures with you. ”
It is understandable that Concubine Liang's love for her son is sincere, but when Old Man Ding, who also feels sorry for his apprentice, heard this, he couldn't help frowning and shouting dissatisfiedly:
"What kind of rare treasure can be compared with the old man's Hades tears, not to mention that this medicine was originally given by the old man to Jinxuan to treat memory frailty. If she gives up the medicine now, do you know that my apprentice may be completely stupid one day in the future. I can't remember anyone or anything, and I can't even take care of myself. You are begging her for Yan Luo's tears now, in fact, you are ruining Jinxuan's way of life! ”
Hearing this, she was not a good concubine who was not an unreasonable person, even if there was indeed a trace of struggle in her eyes, but in the end, her hand stretched out to Xiao Jinxuan and silently retracted it.
After all, Xiao Jinxuan fell ill and rushed out of the tent that day, and many people saw it with their own eyes, she was out of control and couldn't recognize Zhou Xianyu's scene.
Therefore, even if Concubine Liang later went to the Beijing military camp, she was very clear about this matter.
Especially Concubine Liang knew that the cause of Xiao Jinxuan's illness was all because of giving Zhou Xianrui a chance to escape.
deliberately jumped down the hill and suffered a heavy brain injury before getting sick, thinking of the help that the other party gave to Zhou Xianrui, it was indeed too much.
Therefore, even if Concubine Liang really longed for Yama Tears to heal her son, the virtuous and kind side made it impossible for her to ask for this pill without opening her mouth.
And Xiao Jinxuan on the side, this will shake her head at Old Man Ding, signaling the other party not to be so serious.
Then I saw that she looked quite disappointed, and with a little self-reproach, the good concubine blessed her, and said gently:
"Niangniang doesn't have to feel ashamed of Jinxuan because of this, in fact, Jinxuan is not only for King Rui, but also for myself. After all, Lord Rui could not recover, and Xianyu fought bloodily in front, but the final result was likely to be defeated by the Xue family's rebellion because of the namelessness of the teacher. At that time, all of you and I who are here now will be hanged and will not be spared. Therefore, saving the prince is saving myself, and it is also helping Xianyu completely reverse the situation. And I believe that there is no way to heaven and man, even if there is no Yama tears. With my master here, there may be other ways to cure my illness, so don't worry about me any longer. ”
Seeing that Xiao Jinxuan had talked about this, even the old man Ding, who was still trying to persuade on the side, sighed for a long time, and didn't say anything after all.
And Concubine Liang, who had been moved by Xiao Jinxuan's righteousness and taking into account the overall situation, couldn't help but step forward and grabbed the other party's hand tightly, and said with pity:
"Jinxuan Bengong has always known that you are a good boy, and I don't know how to express my gratitude. But don't worry, child, as long as Xianrui can successfully ascend the throne and become the emperor, all the rebellious people of the Xue clan will be killed. Then even if you search all over the country, this palace will definitely find a cure for your hidden dangers. And from now on, the affairs between you and Xianyu will not interfere with the concubine. This palace will treat you as your own daughter, and will never forget the sacrifices you made for Rui'er and the Great Zhou royal family. ”
Once Zhou Xianrui ascends the throne, Concubine Liang will be the queen mother, so the promise she made is indeed not light.
But just when everyone reached an agreement, Xiao Jinxuan also signaled to come with her, and when Bai Chu, who was standing on the side, handed her the small stone box.
Before Xiao Jinxuan could open the stone box to take the medicine according to what Old Man Ding had taught, Zhou Xianrui, who was on the sickbed, took the first step and interrupted her with a deep voice.
"Jinxuan medicine, you take it back, even if I lie on the sickbed, as long as I still have a breath, I can still rush to Beijing immediately. Your memory loss was caused by the back of your head injury when you helped me attract pursuers. Even if this disease does not kill you, but living in a muddy state is not more painful for you than death. How can I take away your chance to recover for my own sake, then who has I become Zhou Xianrui, I will definitely not agree to this kind of thing. ”
In fact, Zhou Xianrui's personality Xiao Jinxuan knows very well, and the other party's rejection is also expected by her.
Therefore, I saw that Xiao Jinxuan didn't even reply, but looked at Old Man Ding and asked bluntly in public:
"Master, the effect of this Yama Tears, I think it must be possible to ask Prince Rui to take it, and then he can move freely. Then I don't know if it's feasible to give the medicine to the other party now, after all, I still hope that the effect of the medicine can be fully exerted and repair the prince's injuries as quickly as possible. ”
Seeing that when Xiao Jinxuan spoke, although her tone was still as gentle and calm as ever, the other party even said such words.
The kind of bearing that cannot be questioned by others, Xiao Jinxuan can really show her soft and rigid temperament vividly at this critical moment when the war ahead is tight.
And when Old Man Ding heard this, he also saw that Xiao Jinxuan had indeed made up his mind, thinking that since he had already sent Yan Luo tears to the other party, how to use this pill, he also felt that this apprentice was in charge.
Therefore, after thinking about it, Old Man Ding couldn't help but say cautiously:
"You should take this pill Jinxuan back first, use it as a teacher to teach you, soak this stone box with the mountain spring water you take, and continue to refine the medicinal effect of the pill. As for Lord Rui's side, I will perform a retrograde acupuncture for him today, and after adjusting his body to the most suitable state for taking Yama Tears, he will be able to use the medicine early tomorrow morning. ”
Hearing Old Man Ding's words, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help nodding slightly, and immediately motioned to Bai Chu to take the stone box containing Yan Luo's tears back to her tent and put it in the jar of mountain spring water first.
Although I don't understand why the mountain spring water will refine the medicinal effect of Yama Luo's tears, after soaking for a few days, when Xiao Jinxuan took out the pill this morning, she did see that the pill was covered with a faint layer of cold air, which was still lingering like a substance, which was very strange.
And Zhou Xianrui, who was on the sickbed, saw that Xiao Jinxuan directly ignored his words and only did what he thought step by step.
Immediately, a trace of helplessness and annoyance flashed on his face, and then he said with a cold expression
"Mother, Elder Ding, can you go out first, I have something to talk to Jinxuan alone."
Zhou Xianrui is now the future prince of the Great Zhou, so what he said is a good concubine as his biological mother, and it is not easy to be too disobedient now.
Therefore, it didn't take much effort, and when he saw that only Xiao Jinxuan was standing quietly in the room, Zhou Xianrui couldn't help but signal the other party to come closer, and then coughed lightly and said:
"Jinxuan, I know that what you decide will rarely be influenced by. But this Yama tear is equally important to you, how can this king bear to accept it on his own. And with Elder Ding by my side to heal me, this king will definitely be able to insist on reaching the capital division if he holds on to this life. When the time comes, with the seventh brother by his side to help, this king will definitely be able to exterminate the Xue family, so you don't have to worry about the affairs of the previous dynasty. ”
But as soon as she heard this, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then asked in a suspicious voice with a slight frown:
"Lord Wang, do you think you are lying to yourself when you say this, or can you comfort Jinxuan? With the way you look now, what can you do if you arrive in Jingshi alive. Manchu Chaowu, will the royal family ask you to ascend the throne and be the emperor like this? And Zhou Xiantai, who is the prince of the prince, is protected by the biological mother of Empress Xue, and will inevitably ascend the throne even more expectedly. So you should actually know that only when you go back unhindered, so that everyone can see that it is a healthy King of the Great Zhou, you can climb the dragon chair. ”
In fact, Zhou Xianrui didn't know what Xiao Jinxuan said, but the other party was the woman he loved and cared about in his heart, and he really couldn't do anything to take medicine to cure himself.
And after being slightly silent, Zhou Xianrui couldn't help but look at Xiao Jinxuan again, and then a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and finally spoke:
"Jinxuan, the matter between you and Xianyu, Emperor Yongchang has already told this king. And I also understand what he means very clearly, that is, I hope that if a **** can ascend the throne, I hope that this king will return your free body, so that you and your seventh brother can stay together for a long time. In fact, you know the king's intentions, but the feelings really can't be forced. Therefore, since Jinxuan, you have made a choice between me and Xianyu. After all, you have helped me a lot, and now you have brought out Yama tears to me. Then I, Zhou Xianrui, also promise you here, as long as the political situation is stable, this king will safely ask you to leave. When the sky is high and the sea is wide, you will go with the emperor. ”
In fact, Zhou Xianrui's deep love also caused Xiao Jinxuan to be reluctant to mention to the other party that she would leave one day and travel around the world with Zhou Xianyu.
And now seeing that Zhou Xianrui not only broke the matter, but was also willing to let it go, this result is undoubtedly the best for the three of them in Xiao Jinxuan's opinion.
Just when Xiao Jinxuan showed a light smile, ready to thank Zhou Xianrui for his success, and said a few words of comfort, telling the other party not to have too many worries and take Yan Luo tears safely.
Suddenly, I saw that the tent curtain was suddenly lifted from the outside, Xiao Jinxuan and Zhou Xianrui were startled almost at the same time, and turned to look. I saw that Xiangping not only had blood stains on his hands and skirts, but also cried with horror on his face.
And before Xiao Jinxuan asked the other party in surprise what was wrong, Xiangping immediately stepped forward and grabbed her wrist, and said in a voice full of anxiety and fear:
"Jinxuan, what about your Yama tears, quickly take them out and give them to me, Brother Mo was seriously injured and was carried back. He can't hold on anymore, Jinxuan, you take out the medicine quickly, it's really too late to be too late. ”
