Chapter 10 It is difficult to distinguish between true and false
Ah Xiao saw Uncle Yunqi and Sister Qian coming back from afar, and the white figures that were faintly recognizable in the woods made Ah Xiao excited, and Ah Xiao hurriedly ran out with an umbrella and a lantern, and the leaves of the wind and rain in the mountains rattled.
"Uncle Yunqi! You're back! β
"Hmm!"
"Is Sister Coriander injured again?"
Yun started his head for a moment, but changed the topic, "Have you memorized the herbal pharmacology that asked you to memorize today?" β
"Back! Carried it! Today's knowledge is jute, jute has sweat to go cold, diuresis and swelling, can also treat cold, fever, headache can also relieve body edema! β
"Not bad!"
"Ah Xiao, go get a basin of hot water." When he was about to arrive at the door, Yunqi said to Ah Xiao.
"Ah Xiao, let's go!"
That night, Qian Qian seemed to have lost her soul, her whole person had no strength, her eyes were dull like a pool of stagnant water, and she was lifeless.
"Miss Bai, don't be too sad, if General Bai and Madam Bai see you like this in the Spirit of Heaven, it will be even more sad." Yunqi put her on the side of the bed, and Qian Qian sat weakly, no different from a puppeteer.
"My father and my mother have always been kind, even if they have disputes with some ministers in the court, but my father has never been murderous, why are those people so vicious..."
Yun Qi watched her thin body tremble in the candlelight, and wanted to hug her, but after all, he held back, he hoped that he would never be emotionally attached to her again in this life, and hoped to do it again...... Walking to the small wooden cabinet against the windowsill, Yunqi opened the medicine box on it, took out a small medicine bottle and put it on the table.
"Ah Xiao will call hot water in a while, she will help you clean the wound, this is gold sore medicine, remember to apply it to the wound after cleaning."
"Thanksβ" she paused, and then seemed to have made up her mind that she had to get out of here sooner, and that she was going to find someone to disguise her.
"Childe, I'll trouble you for a few days, and I'll leave as soon as possible."
"Girl, what do you mean? As I said, you can make this your home. In her memory, Yunqi promised Canglan: "I will give you a home in the future", and in the end, Yunqi gave her not a home, but a fatal stab in the chest......
"No, even if I don't worry about bothering you, I'll leave, because I want to avenge my father! I can't watch them die unjustly! β
"Girl, do you know that you are impulsive right now? Are you planning to leave without planning anything? β
"No, I have a plan!"
Yunqi originally wanted to ask how her plan was arranged, but she was not related to her in this life, how could she tell him for no reason?
"If the girl is willing, why not add me to the plan? I might be able to help the girl. β
"......" Qian Qian hesitated for a second, Yun Qi saw the indecision in her eyes, so she smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if the girl doesn't believe me, but I will naturally go all out where I can be used." β
Qian Qian was anxious for a while, it was not that she didn't believe the person in front of her, but she didn't want to trouble others anymore, or let anyone else be implicated, but it was nothing to tell Yunqi about the plan.
"I heard that there is a doctor in the northwest who can change my appearance, named Chuan Hezi, I want to find him to help me change my face first."
"Disguise?"
"Hmm!"
"Who does the girl want to become?" A trace of doubt flashed in Yunqi's eyes, and then he immediately hid it.
"I, as long as others can't see that I'm Bai Qianqian... I just want to find out who is behind the murder of the Bai family."
"So you want to have a new identity!"
"Hmm!"
"What a coincidence! I'll be transfigured too. β
βοΌοΌοΌβ Qian Qian's eyes widened and said, "Aren't you going to trick me?" I'm not in the mood to joke with you about this kind of thing. β
"Not really, and I'll give you a look tomorrow." Yun Qi smiled bitterly, after all, Qian Qian was still the one he once knew, and his heart couldn't let go after all, otherwise he knew that in their plan, Qian Qian would definitely cause a lot of trouble in the future, but he still chose to save her.
However, now Coriander wants her to change her identity, just like she did seventeen years ago, and even the emotions in their eyes are the same.
"Really? May I? β
"I will, but what will you repay me?"
Hearing the phrase "Although I will", Qianqian's eyes flashed with hope, but the sentence "What do you repay me?" But she was speechless for a while.
"I..."
Before Qian Qian finished speaking, Yun Qi interrupted her with a smile and said, "Okay! You can make a promise by yourself! I can still make do with it! β
"Nope! No way! I'd better go find Kawakawako! Qian Qian hurriedly shook her head, she still wants to marry her brother Ling Xiao!
The smile on Yunqi's face deepened, and it seemed that he was talking to Qianqian, which was very interesting.
"Alright, tease you! I will, and I don't need you to make a promise. β
"And what do you want?"
"Well, well, I'll ask the girl for it when I think about it, but don't worry, what I want won't be too much, 20,000 gold!"
"Done!"
Yunqi has never been short of money, and this is just to make Qian Qian not feel sorry, as for whether Qian Qian has the ability to repay the money now, and whether she can pay it back in the future, he doesn't care.
"Uncle Yunqi's hot water is here." Ah Xiao took the steaming small wooden basin and put it on the table.
"Hmm"
Yunqi didn't tell Ah Xiao to retreat, Ah Xiao stood next to him very obediently and quietly.
"The most sloppy can only solve three points of pain, and the other seven points have to be borne by yourself."
"I'm not afraid of pain!"
No matter how painful it was to clean up the wound on her leg and undergo the disguise surgery, Coriander never shed a single tear, only clenched her teeth.
"You did the business of Baifu!" Ling Xiao was furious, and he wanted to pretend to be the third prince who had nothing to do with Fengyue with his own hands, and he tried his best to suppress the flames in his heart, because he couldn't produce evidence.
"Me? Why did everything fall on me? Wei Xinghan looked like he didn't care about himself, and put away the folding fan in his hand.
"Don't think that if I get poisoned by your fire, I will obey you! Today you have one less opponent, and someone will always make you pay for it with blood! β
"Why, you're angry with one less ally? You're just using them! "The Bai Mansion was damaged, and it is indeed a fact that the Ling Mansion, which has always had a good relationship with General Bai, lost an ally in the imperial court, but more important than the loss of an ally was the loss of a beloved, and on the contrary, the relationship between the Ling Mansion and the Bai Mansion was framed.
Ling Xiao stopped talking, and was about to leave, pushing the door and going out at the same time.
Wei Xinghan sneered, "I heard that the body of Bai Qianqian, the daughter of the Bai family, has not been found yet, instead of wasting time here with me, it is better to go to the Bai Mansion and do something useful!" β
Ling Xiao stretched out his hand, drew his sword out of its sheath, and pointed the blade of the sword directly at Wei Xinghan's throat, a blow could be fatal, but Wei Xinghan did not dodge.
Ling Xiao looked at Wei Xinghan, with a hint of blood in the air, Ling Xiao ruthlessly withdrew his sword.
"I will find the truth, and when the time comes, I will settle accounts with you!"
As soon as Ling Xiao walked out of the door, Wei Xinghan crushed the cup in his hand, this royal brother secretly framed him is really good! When did he, Wei Xinghan, ever do an assassination!
There is no evidence for this kind of assassination, and they all know that the relationship between the eldest prince and General Bai of the Bai family is good, and it is also a wise choice to fight against him together with the forces of Baifu, but I never thought that the imperial brother would even kill his own ally, and he would be able to go to Baifu as a conformist the next day to pretend to rescue.
The emperor will definitely hand over General Bai's military power to the eldest prince, and Ling Xiao hates him now, not to mention being able to unite with Ling Xiao, and the destruction of the Bai family is also his miscalculation.
He was also bent on winning over Ling Xiao, after all, the strength under Ling Xiao's hands should not be underestimated, but now this matter is getting more and more tricky.
What kind of woman is Bai Qianqian who can make Ling Xiao so angry?!
Wei Xinghan suddenly thought of a plan, maybe this way he could get back a game! Let Ling Xiao cooperate with him.
Wei Xinghan watched as the torrential rain at night hit the tiled houses, and the roof rubble of the entire imperial city building was filled with countless dots of fragile white light.
When Ling Xiao returned to the house, the new gatekeeper seemed to want to be willing to give, but he didn't notice Ling Xiao's gloomy face at all, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "Lord Wang! You're back! β
Perhaps because he had drunk too much wine, Ling Xiao actually stopped to listen to the manservant.
Then the manservant smiled and said, "Today I saw a woman who was begging for rags, and I had to come to you." also claimed to be the eldest lady of Baifu, I saw that she was dressed in tatters, and she was a beggar and drove away. β
"Woman?! Miss Bai? You drove her away!! Ling Xiao suddenly came back to his senses, suddenly approached the manservant, and grabbed his chin with one hand, which was enough to kill ordinary people in a few seconds.
The male servant suddenly sensed that something was wrong, the pain in his throat came, and his breathing became difficult, and he hurriedly begged for mercy, "Little look at her, she really looks like a beggar!" No, I don't know if it's the eldest lady of the Bai family..."
"Get out of here!" Ling Xiao grabbed him by the neck and lifted him up fiercely, threw him to the ground violently, and scolded like thunder: "Get out of here!" β
Chi Yuan just silently followed behind Ling Xiao, looking at Ling Xiao so decadent, he understood the pain of his master.
"Draw the knife and cut off the water, the water is more flowing, and the glass is more sorrowful! Life is not satisfactory in the world, and the Ming Dynasty spreads to be a flat boat! Hahaha......"
Ling Xiao raised his head and recited the verses, laughed a few times and then collapsed on the bed, drunk and unconscious. Chi Yuan covered him with a quilt and turned away silently.
Wei Tianyue and his more than 200 soldiers searched for three days on the ruins of Baifu, and countless burned bodies were carried out one by one......
remembered that a few days ago, he forced Qian Qian to dance for him in the palace.
The dancing posture of the dragon, the woman's forbearant but resolute gaze went straight to the bottom of his heart, perhaps it was destined to be a shallow fate, he smiled self-deprecatingly, but he was just a woman! When did you care about women?
"Inform Your Highness that the bodies of General Bai and Madame Bai have been found, and after identification by all parties, they have been determined, but the soldiers led by his subordinates have not found Miss Qianqian."
"The herald orders to rebuild the White Mansion tomorrow, and complete it in two months!"
"Yes! Subordinates understand! "The voice is sonorous and powerful.
When the emperor heard that the White Mansion was burned down overnight, he seemed to have expected it, frowning slightly, and a trace of pity was depicted between his eyebrows. Then he handed over the Baifu fire incident to Wei Tianyue to deal with, ordered him to investigate the matter thoroughly, and let the eldest prince bury General Bai and Madame Bai in Yu'anshan.
For three days, all the bodies were found, but Bai Qianqian's body was not found, perhaps Bai Qianqian was not killed.
Wei Xinghan thought that if Bai Qian was still alive, then he would be able to find out soon! Certain! Certain!
In Wei Xinghan's mansion, a woman who was exactly the same as Qian Qian said with a hint of fear, lowered her head and trembled: "No... Ignorance... What is the matter with the three princes looking for a little girl? β
Behind the woman, there was her father and mother, who were also standing in front of the three princes as if they were facing a great enemy, and there were several soldiers guarding the door behind them.
The old couple also secretly calculated in their hearts, maybe the three princes fell in love with their daughters, if they did, their daughters would be concubines for the third highnesses, and they would also enjoy the blessings, so they were afraid that they would do something for the dead ghosts.
Wei Xinghan stretched out his hand and pinched the chin of this woman who was exactly the same as Qian Qiansheng, and looked at this face carefully, but he didn't expect that there was a woman in this world who was nine points similar to Qian Qiansheng.
"What's your name?"
"The little woman's name is Yulai"
"Seventeen or eighteen years old, right?"
"Little Girl Seventeen"
"Yes! Not bad! Looking at the third prince's gradually sparse expression, the stone in the woman's heart fell, and the nervousness slowly turned into joy.
"I think she is good-looking, why don't you be a maid in my house?"
"Maid?" Yulai's father seemed a little surprised, he didn't expect that the Third Highness would actually accept their daughter as a maid, but after thinking about it, even a maid is a maid in the palace! Maybe his daughter will have a chance to fly on the branches and become a phoenix.
This man got cheap and thought about it, and said in a roundabout way: "Although I am no different from this, but I, the father, still want to rely on my daughter's will!" β
"What do you think?" Wei Xinghan put down the hand that was holding Yulai.
"It's all up to my daddy!"
"Is it five hundred taels of gold?"
The couple looked at each other tacitly and nodded again and again. "Done! Yes! β
Five hundred taels of gold! How many years does it take to earn so much money! Five hundred taels of gold for a daughter is definitely not a loss, and it is still a sure profit! When the husband and wife heard the five hundred taels of gold, their eyes would shoot out with golden light.
Yulai cried continuously, and said reluctantly: "Daddy, my daughter can't be with you anymore, but you have to take good care of your body." β
"Don't be afraid, daughter! If you have any grievances, write to tell your father. Then he turned to the Third Highness and pleaded: "My daughter has just entered the palace, I don't know the rules of the palace, what is this to do beyond the rules, and I hope that the third prince will teach more!" β
"Don't worry, just she does what I say, and everyone is safe with each other, but if this matter leaks out, don't blame me for not being able to keep your heads! In the future, you are not allowed to set foot in the palace, and at most you can only exchange letters, and I will send someone to deliver a message to you. Wei Xinghan took out the contract that had been prepared and put it on the table. The slave girl next to her handed over a box of cinnabar.
