Chapter 157: Paving the Way Back
The corners of her cool mouth rose slightly, "What my aunt said is right, since this is the case, you don't have to act during this time, let's watch the fire from the other side, since the prince has let Ning Liuying be the bait, there will never be a possibility of turning back, why not watch the show in this palace?" ”
When Aunt Su Jin heard Shangguan say this, she finally sighed, "What Niangniang said is right, if only you could have such an opinion before." ”
Shangguan smiled and said nothing, Ning Liuying would no longer enter the eyes of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince now, why should she worry too much.
……
In five days, the injuries on Liuying's body finally got better, and slowly she was able to get up from the bed, although the pain in her body did not decrease, but it was much better than before.
In the past two days, she has not seen the old palace maid mentioned by Shuqin, she walked around the cold palace at will, and then she returned to the palace, the days of the cold palace are boring, and she has no other choice, every day she is trying to leave from here, or escape from here.
But nothing came of it.
On this day, the weather was not good, and the warbler smelled some stinky clothes on her body, and she was very disgusted in her heart, but when it came to this point, she had no other choice, and she could only endure the unsuitable well water in her heart to wash her body at will.
I don't know if the prince has taken the wrong medicine in the past two days, and the palace people suddenly sent food to the cold palace one after another, although it is still a meal with clear soup and little water, without any nutrition, but compared to the meal that has been spoiled before, I don't know how much better.
But the master and servant were full of vigilance for this sudden gesture of goodwill, they were so hungry during this time, and at this time they actually sent food to send people, it would be strange if she could be calm and calm in her heart.
Shuqin frowned and looked at the food in her hand, and said worriedly, "Niangniang, what do you say they want to do?" ”
Liuying shook her head, "I don't know what I want to do, but there is absolutely nothing good about it, don't you say?" Let's put these meals here first, if the people behind them want to do something, they will definitely show clues, you and I just keep an eye on it. ”
Shuqin also felt that Liuying was right, the master and servant swallowed their saliva, and poured the food aside with hunger, in fact, the reason for Liuying to do this is also simple, if these meals are eaten by mice or cats, they are not dead here, that is to say, the food is non-toxic, but if it is dead, the food is naturally poisonous, and it cannot be touched.
Liuying closed her eyes, she easily felt the discomfort in her stomach, she quickly fell asleep this night, and dreamed of the hibiscus cake she liked to eat in the past, but now she is so down, not to mention hibiscus cake, even if it is a casual meal, she can't eat it, if it weren't for Liuying's amazing self-control, I'm afraid that she would have been starved to death here now.
In the second half of the night, the warbler woke up hungry, looking at the food that had been thrown away not far away but had not yet been passive, her eyes were burning, and she had already moved her mind, but her dignity did not allow it, she endured it for a long time, and then she took her eyes back.
At this moment, I don't know if the warbler was hallucinating or what, she actually smelled the fragrance of chicken legs, she couldn't help but walk over, and really saw a few chicken legs.
Liuying swallowed her saliva, then glanced around, and found four chicken legs in the corner, but there was no one around, she didn't pick up the chicken legs at this time, and it wasn't her to put down the chicken legs.
"Eat it with confidence, it's non-toxic and harmless."
The man's voice suddenly came, and the warbler was frightened and vigilantly threw down the chicken leg in her hand, "Who is it?" ”
"It's me." The man sighed, and then turned over from outside the wall, at first Liuying didn't realize who the other party was, but after realizing it, he remembered the man he had seen at the banquet in Shangshufu, could it be Gongzi Xie?
"You're Gongzi Xie, right?" Liuying Fox wondered, "Why are you here, it's not safe in the palace now, and I ask Gongzi to leave quickly." ”
"Don't you ask, how did I end up here?" Gongzi Xie asked with interest.
He was entrusted to come to the cold palace, and heard that Ning Liuying was tortured during this time, and now he has seen with his own eyes that this is really the case, Shangguan Rou has never been a fuel-efficient lamp, and naturally he will seize every opportunity to fall into the well.
"Childe is willing to say, I think I have said it a long time ago, since I didn't say it, I don't want to tell me, so why should I be strong?" Liuying said lightly, but the helplessness in these words is only known by Liuying herself.
"This chicken leg was brought to you, it looks like you haven't eaten for a long time, you can't help much, this incident also has something to do with me, if it weren't for that time, you wouldn't have been fooled if you failed to trust my people, but Shangguan's family can't be prevented after all, I will do my best to help you."
How could Gongzi Xie think that before Shangguan Wei, the poisonous snake, left two fierce generals in the capital, if he hadn't gotten the news to retreat in advance, he was afraid that he would have been caught by the Shangguan clan, but it was Ning Liuying who was suffering now, although she had never complained about anyone, but Xie Gongzi was still a little uncomfortable in his heart.
"It's happened, it doesn't matter who is right or who is wrong, and now I don't blame anyone, it's actually my own reason, so Childe doesn't have to blame himself, but if you really want to help me, can you promise me one thing?" The warbler suddenly thought of something and pleaded loudly.
Gongzi Xie breathed a sigh of relief, and the guilt in his heart was not so strong.
"You say yes, I can help, do what I can." Gongzi Xie said in a deep voice.
"Help me take the girl Shuqin next to me out of the palace, she has suffered too much if she stays by my side, I don't want to implicate anyone anymore, if you really want to help me, I only have this one thing in my heart, okay?"
Xie Gongzi was a little hesitant, although it was not difficult, but it still needed a certain degree of difficulty, but the king of Zhennan brought a letter, saying that he must protect Ning Liuying, but there are countless secret guards in the East Palace, and there are countless organs, he is not so stupid to throw himself into the net, and he came late at night to inquire about everything today, and the prince withdrew all the guards.
"Okay, I promise you, but you have to try your best to protect yourself in the palace, I will definitely do my best to help you, this matter is done, tomorrow at noon, I will have someone come here to pick up your palace maid, and then act according to orders, you know?" Gongzi Xie hurriedly said.
"Okay, I understand." Ning Liuying breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that her body was weak and fell to the ground, Xie Gongzi stepped forward and took Liuying into her arms, and she was safe and sound.
But he inadvertently found that there were too many scars on Liuying's body, the old injuries healed, and the new injuries increased, but at this time, his heart was a little complicated, and he secretly took out some medicine bottles from his sleeves.
