Chapter 17: Detoxification

As soon as Huo Qingqing heard this, he hurriedly knelt down in front of Su Sui and slapped himself in the mouth, "It's the concubine who is stupid, she just talked nonsense, and she didn't think about it so much at all." Don't be angry, sir, the concubine will never dare to say this in the future. ”

"Hmph, I thought I couldn't hear it, you beat around the bush because you felt sorry for Su Yuxian for her sister's work, for Su Yuxian, you really took great pains, and you still want to use your delusional status as the queen for her to suppress me? I, Su Sui, have been afraid of a few people in my life. ”

The more Su Sui spoke, the more angry he became, his hands crossed his hips, and he walked around irritably, his palms slapping loudly on the table.

"The concubine body doesn't dare, the concubine body doesn't mean that, and she deserves to die in person." Huo Qingqing cried again and slapped himself in the face a few times.

"You don't feel sorry for her, she doesn't want to take care of Yan'er, she will move to a small building by the lake from tomorrow onwards, send three meals a day to let her starve, and she is not allowed to go out and walk around. And you, a stupid woman, if you dare to go out and spread the news about Su Yuxian's marriage to the prince everywhere, and accept money and promise others to do things, I, I will really drive you to the nunnery. ”

The small lakeside building in the garden is dilapidated, no one has lived in it for many years, and it is estimated that rats and insects are rampant inside, how could Su Yuxian bear such a crime.

But Huo Qingqing didn't dare to plead again, for fear that Su Sui would be even more angry, crying and crying, only blaming himself for saying the wrong thing.

And she has recently been sought after outside, received a few sums of money, and relied on the reputation of the General's Mansion and the limelight of being the prince's mother-in-law in the future to do some favoritism and eliminate disasters for others, and I don't know how Su Sui knew.

If he hadn't said the wrong thing, as long as it wasn't too much, Su Sui probably would have turned a blind eye, but now this road is completely blocked.

The next day, she hurriedly repaired and cleaned up the small building by the lake, so that Su Yuxian could move over, Su Yuxian cried bitterly, and was reluctant to move, but Su Sui remembered this matter and asked the housekeeper to supervise, if he didn't move over before dark, he would use the family method.

When Su Wanyan heard the news, she had a good time with the maids, and her illness was cured.

Su Yuxian has stopped a lot since that day, and she was going crazy when she learned that Su Wanyan was alive and kicking and had not been poisoned at all, but she was afraid of Su Sui, and she didn't dare to do anything, let alone make waves again.

Su Yuxian didn't make trouble, Su Heming was also dedicated to learning, after a long time, Su Wanyan felt that the family was too peaceful, and Ansheng was boring.

She thought that a comfortable life would make people degenerate, and planned to go to the field to see if her ability to be a mercenary was unfamiliar, so she asked Lingxiu to pretend to be herself and stay in the house all day, while she went out early and returned late, and even spent the night outside.

On this day, she walked quickly through the mountains, looking at the six directions, listening to the eight directions, looking for the direction of wild objects, to exercise her skills and the sensitivity of her five senses.

She heard the sound of horses' hooves on the mountain road from afar, which was neither fast nor loud, as if they were strolling forward.

She thought it strange and wanted to see who was staying in the mountains.

When I came to the mountain road, I saw a horse wandering in place, bowing his head from time to time and arching his nose at something on the ground.

She stepped forward to find a person lying there unconscious, with a pool of blackened blood flowing under his body, and this person's face was very familiar, it was Duanmu Rui, the younger brother of the current saint.

Remembering the last time he helped him out of the siege in the palace, Su Wanyan was grateful, and at this time it was raining lightly, she hurriedly took Duanmu Rui to a nearby cave, and immediately checked the injuries on his body, and saw that he had a long knife wound from his right shoulder to his back, and the wound was black, and the smell was fishy, and it looked like he was poisoned.

Duanmu Rui, who was in a coma, shivered, it should be a chill, she hurriedly lit a bonfire to drive away the cold in the cave and warm him up.

Duanmu Rui took out the antidote pill she had with her body at any time and gave it to Duanmu Rui, but it was not enough, she went out of the cave again and searched for almost the entire mountain with antidote herbs, and when she came back, it was dark.

I found a clean stone and ground the herbs for Duanmu Rui to apply to the wound.

After waiting for two quarters of an hour, Duanmu Rui woke up from his coma, but he had a fever and was not conscious.

Su Wanyan went to the small river in front of him to get water and kept giving him cold compresses, so he got better and slept soundly.

Seeing that the poison on his body was resolved, he should be fine when he woke up early tomorrow morning, Su Wanyan wanted to go back, afraid that something would happen to Lingxiu and them.

But as soon as she wanted to get up, her hand was grabbed as soon as her body moved.

"Don't, don't go......"

Duanmu Rui's dry and pale lips squirmed, making a mosquito-like sound.

She looked down at Duanmu Rui's face, saw that his eyes were closed, frowned uneasily, and then looked at his big hand holding him, and he couldn't pull it out even if he wanted to, it was held tightly.

Thinking that this man didn't know what he was dreaming about, and that he couldn't leave anyway, she simply sat down beside him, and he soon fell asleep again.

Su Wanyan's gaze unconsciously fell on Duanmu Rui's handsome and heroic face.

has lived two lives, she has seen too many good-looking men, but Duanmu Rui's face can be called a masterpiece of God, I met in the past, and I didn't think it was at a glance, but now I take a closer look and find that the more I look at it, the better it looks.

The eyelashes are long and dense, the nose is high, the pale thin lips are tightly pursed, and the lines on the face are angular, neat and elegant.

The most important thing is that this person's popularity is extraordinary, not to mention the noble self-control of the royal son, he is even more graceful and luxurious, and mysterious and inviolable.

Su Wanyan likes this kind of challenging thing, and the more difficult things to approach, the more interested she is.

Hey, what is she thinking, why is she thinking about approaching this man, people will help you out, and a little favor will make you unable to hold it?

Su Wanyan shook her head to wake herself up, but it didn't take long for her to fall asleep against the stone wall.

The next morning, she woke up early, tested the temperature on Duanmu Rui's forehead, and checked his pulse before making sure he was okay and rushed back to Su Mansion.

She woke up not long after she left, and when she woke up, she found herself in a cave, and there was an unburned bonfire on the side of the mountain, and the most surprising thing for him was that the poison on his body was decomposed, and the wound was still covered with herbs.

He got up from the ground, shook his clothes and heard a "clanging sound", and when he turned around, he found that a cyan jade pendant had fallen on the ground.

He picked it up and looked at it, and saw that it wasn't on him, and since it wasn't his, it was the one who saved him last night.

He rubbed it in his hand and thought for a moment, although he had been asleep last night, he felt as if a woman was taking care of him.

Just as he was about to walk out of the cave, there were several small sounds at the entrance of the cave.

"It's too late for the subordinates, and the prince forgives the sins."

His men finally found him.

"Get up."

He strode to the entrance of the cave and handed the jade pendant in his hand to the one who was the leader of several people, "Go and find out the owner of this jade pendant, the sooner the better." ”

"Yes."

The people surrounded him and walked down the mountain, and as he went, he said, "The emperor has recently begun to be suspicious again, and he has not been able to kill me this time, and he will definitely come again soon, so you all give this king a little vigilance." ”

His subordinates were angry, "When is it a head to hide around like this, it is better to directly reverse him." ”

"Now is not the time, you can't act rashly without full certainty, don't say this kind of thing in the future, don't say anything about disturbing the morale of the army, be careful that the wall has ears."

His subordinates whispered a "yes" helplessly and aggrievedly.

"The most important thing now is to make him unable to catch the handle, he has no reason and can only make a small fuss, assassinate from time to time, you think this time this king will not be able to escape, just to confuse him, let him think that this king is still very weak."

He turned around and began to beat his men again, "It's you, if someone hadn't saved this king, it is estimated that this king would have been dead by the time you found it." ”

"Subordinates should be damned."

"But you've survived so badly injured before, and yesterday was nothing."

The people around Duanmu Rui are all brothers who have followed him from birth to death, and he will not blame him for speaking casually.

This woke up Duanmu Rui, although he did have a way to save himself yesterday, but after being saved by the woman, he seemed to feel a different kind of security, and he actually let himself fall asleep all the time.

And the medicine that the woman gave him was also very peculiar, and he would go back and study it carefully.

Duanmu Rui's injuries were almost healed and began to go to court, and before the early dynasty, the emperor asked the eunuch to announce that he had breakfast together in the dormitory, making a hypocritical face to care about his injury.

He also pretended not to avoid suspicion and talked to him about the recent invasion of the border by the Xiongnu, and asked him to help with advice.

Duanmu Rui immediately left the seat and knelt down, clasping his fists to express his feelings.

"If the royal brother thinks that the younger brother can help you share your worries in addition to enjoying the blessings at home, the younger brother will definitely obey the arrangement of the imperial brother and never give up, if you ask about the political affairs of the younger brother, the imperial brother does not know that the younger brother never cares about it, and his qualifications are dull......"

The emperor laughed and quickly helped Duanmu Rui up, "Okay, it's good that you have this heart, you are my only brother, how can I bear to let you suffer and suffer." ”

Above the main hall, hundreds of officials lined up, and the emperor threw a pile of folds on the imperial case, and the majestic voice spread far and wide in the hall.

"Today's Hun attack, the border is connected with five excerpts, can the Aiqing have a solution?"

The prime minister headed by the civil official came out of the ranks, and he said that he had only been stable for two years, and the people had not yet recovered, and the court had just calmed down.

The emperor felt that what the prime minister said was both factual and reasonable, thought for a moment, calmed down a little, and then spoke: "But this Hun barbarian thief is ferocious, we can't ignore it, let him break through the Shanhai Pass, and hit the imperial city, wouldn't it be worse." ”

This was a bit serious, and the ministers knelt down for a long time and hurriedly shouted "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

The emperor snorted coldly and waved his hand downward, "Get up." Give me something to say and use it. ”

He ordered several ministers in a row, all of them knelt down again, shouting "the minister is guilty, the minister is incompetent", and then said a lot of reasons why the problem could not be solved.

These reasons made the emperor speechless, and almost spit thick phlegm on them.

The eunuch hurriedly brought the spittoon, and the emperor angrily spit it into the spittoon, wiped his mouth and drank water, and his eyes wandered among the officials below.

Suddenly, when he saw Su Sui, his eyes immediately lit up, Su Sui had indeed been a little forgotten by him recently.

"Su Aiqing, tell me about it."

Su Sui stood up majestically, clasped his fists and said: "The minister has nothing to say, if you want to say it, it is to fight, and you have to fight, blindly seeking peace can only make the Huns more rampant, they are jackals, tigers and leopards who can't be fed." ”

The Emperor laughed, "Oh, Aiqing, you're still so straightforward. I think there is really no one in the DPRK, who else agrees with Su Aiqing's opinion? ”

This is to hold Su Sui to an extremely high height, and there is nothing to be done if the person who advocated peace just now is unhappy.

The hall fell silent for a while, and no one stood up to support Su Sui's proposition.

It was enough to have Su Sui, and the emperor quickly deployed six troops to cooperate with Su Sui to prepare grain and grass soldiers, and three days later he was going to the border to meet the battle.

After the dispersal of the dynasty, the six ministries gathered together to vent their bitterness to each other, arguing endlessly about how miserable they were, how poor, and how difficult they were, but the emperor had already given an order, and they could only obediently prepare.

When Duanmu Rui was about to walk out of the palace gate, he was called back by the emperor's chamberlain.

The emperor was eating and drinking, and when he saw him come in, he invited him to sit down and have lunch together.

After eating, the tea was also drunk, and the emperor said: "Brother Huang, you have also seen the situation in the hall today, there is no one in the court, and only one Su Sui can still be used." ”

Duanmu Rui hurriedly said: "Brother Huang is too worried, when it comes to fighting, those civil officials must be afraid, they are pouring bitter water all day long, no money, no food and no one, but when Brother Huang gives an order, they still have to do it obediently." ”
