Chapter 35: By Chance
Lu Xiaoxiao touched the hair buried in Ye Qianling's arms, and saw that even clothes couldn't cover up the obviously thinner back, and her heart was sour, "Ling'er, sister-in-law knows everything, everyone believes that you didn't do it, and now you put too much pressure on yourself because of the queen mother's affairs, although sister-in-law doesn't know why you did this, I also hope that you can be happy and don't lose weight like this anymore." ”
Ye Qianling hadn't sat in a sedan chair for a long time, and she had just come back from the battlefield, and she almost forgot what the sedan chair looked like, and she was a little uncomfortable for a moment, but she didn't say anything, she just shrunk her head into Lu Xiaoxiao's arms, tears in the corners of her eyes, and she couldn't bear to fall down. It took a long time before he spoke: "Sister-in-law." My father said he would never forgive me. What the hell should I do, the queen mother's matter is because of me, I don't know what face is still alive. ”
No matter who encounters this situation, it will not feel good in her heart, Lu Xiaoxiao understands but doesn't know how to comfort her, after all, Zifeiyu, no one can completely become another person in her mind and think about problems from her point of view.
"Your eldest brother is very worried about you, and during this time, he often sent people to promise you about the situation, and I heard that you used the absolute realm to kill a tiger, and your sister-in-law is very proud of you. I remember that the queen mother once told us, no matter what happens, don't give up easily, only by persevering can we see a different scenery. Lu Xiaoxiao raised Ye Qianling's head lightly and looked at her obviously red and swollen eyes, "Ling'er, if you are negative, you can be happy for a while, but it will make the people who love you regret it for life." ”
"Sister-in-law, I don't know what the meaning of persistence is, no one will forgive me, I can only be a sinner, and no one will love me and love me again." Ye Qianling felt that his vision was blurred, his eyes couldn't bear the weight of so many tears, and the big drops fell down, his eyes were full of confusion about the road ahead, his father obviously told himself before going to Nanyuan in the western suburbs that he would forgive himself as long as he became the top of the list at the end of two years, but through what he said just now, he also knew that this was an impossible thing. So what's the point of going to the western suburbs to pursue the first place?
Again confused, again confused, again desperate, not knowing the path to the light and not knowing if there is still one day to come.
"Everyone loves you very much, but those people haven't figured it out yet, and when they figure it out, everything will be fine." Lu Xiaoxiao comforted.
Ye Qianling didn't continue to grieve, she was silent for half a minute, and she didn't forget her business, "Sister-in-law, how is Kun Palace now, are those palace maids still there, is there only an empty shell left?" "I want to take the opportunity to learn about the current situation of Wanfeng, but I can only ask so tactfully.
"In the past few days after the queen mother left, some of the guards were transferred to other palaces, and some were sent to the slave house, like the queen mother's previous personal maid Wan Feng and the evening palace maid left the palace directly because she was sad to live her own life." Lu Xiaoxiao sighed that the white clouds and dogs, the vicissitudes of life, everything is human and wrong.
"Sent to a slave house? Why? Ye Qianling was obviously puzzled and asked directly.
"I heard that a palace maid went to the hospital to get poison, which indirectly killed the queen mother, and the father was very angry, and originally wanted to kill her in a fit of anger, but he was still persuaded to let her stay in the slave house for the rest of her life." The sister-in-law felt sorry for this person.
That palace maid is the queen's most trusted maid except for Wan Feng, although she is not very old, but she is very smart, originally she wanted to use the poison to water the poisonous flower Bailan that came from foreign tribute, this kind of flower can only be fed with poison to cultivate the poisonous flower.
This flower is raised by the four princes Ye Qiange, Mu Ziying is to help her son who is studying medicine, she is not worried about letting her son raise this kind of flower, for fear that something unexpected will hurt the child's life, so she brought the flower to raise it herself, but this happened. This matter really has nothing to do with the maid, but Emperor Guangde really had no way to forgive her, so he didn't kill her, gave her the greatest tolerance, and let her go to the slave house for the rest of her life.
"I'm sorry for her, if it weren't for me, she wouldn't have been in that kind of place." Ye Qianling lowered her eyes, waited until she looked up, and suddenly thought of something, pretending to ask casually, "Wan Feng also left?" Why should she go, where can she go?"
"It seems that she said that she went to the countryside to live and didn't want to stay in this sad place anymore, and then my father agreed, and left a few days ago." Lu Xiaoxiao said.
"Country? Gone so suddenly? Ye Qianling didn't dare to ask too much, for fear that Lu Xiaoxiao, who had always been smart, would find something, so she only asked such a sentence, wanting to bring the topic over immediately after hearing the answer.
"Maybe it's too sad, after all, the evening palace maid has served her mother for decades, and her feelings must be very deep."
When Ye Qianling heard Lu Xiaoxiao's words, she really thought about it and refuted it was not what she thought at all, this evening palace maid was a hidden scheming master, who indirectly killed her master, unkind and unjust! But Ye Qianling couldn't say it, no matter what, and the words that were originally on his lips were forced back.
Lu Xiaoxiao saw that Ye Qianling obviously wanted to say something, and was waiting for her to speak, but she didn't wait for a long time and gave up.
Ye Qianling originally wanted to say goodbye, but suddenly thought of something, "Sister-in-law, can you give me a little silver, I want to prescribe some medicine, but the wound still hurts." ”
"When did you learn to be so polite," Lu Xiaoxiao habitually touched Ye Qianling's head and chatted about comfort, "Other sisters-in-law may not have them, but if you use the silver, you can use it casually, this body must be well maintained, or I don't know what will happen when I get older in the future." After saying that, he ordered the guards to come in, took out a bag of silver, and put it in Ye Qianling's hand.
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Ye Qianling struggled to squeeze out a smile, "Let's take two days off, I'll go see the doctor, and I should go back in the evening." Ye Qianling had no choice but to resign to Lu Xiaoxiao.
Just as he was about to leave the sedan chair, a voice sounded behind him, "Ling'er, take good care of yourself, everyone in the family is waiting for you to come back." ”
When Ye Qianling heard this, she was suddenly moved, turned her head and said to Lu Xiaoxiao: "Sister-in-law, even if there is no way to change the current situation, I will spend these two years well, after all, this is my only chance, don't worry." After saying that, he disappeared into the vast sea of people.
Ye Qianling ordered a noodle to eat in the food street next to the palace, and he hadn't eaten this noodle for several months, and the owner of this house smiled when he saw Ye Qianling's face, "Girl, are you here?" It's been a long time since I've eaten at my uncle's noodle stall. ”
"Yes, uncle, I've been busy all this time, and I finally came back to eat this bowl of noodles at your house, and after walking through so many places, your noodles are really a must." The rainbow fart blows in the night, but this one is really delicious.
"You are just a child, what is there to be busy, do you want to lose weight during this time, so you don't even come to eat the old man's noodles, otherwise why will you lose so much weight?" The old man said when he saw Ye Qianling's face that was obviously several circles.
"This is really no old man, I have to go to Beijing during this time, and it will take about two years to come back, so I came to eat your noodles before leaving, or I will have to wait for a while next time." Although this sentence was said in a relaxed tone, in fact, there was not the slightest smile on Ye Qianling's face when he looked closely.
When the old man saw Ye Qianling's appearance, he knew that this girl had a hard time, but it was the least polite not to pick up people's wounds, so he didn't continue to ask.
Ye Qianling was eating, and suddenly heard the sound of a fight in the distance, and immediately got up, pulled a few mouthfuls of noodles, filled his stomach a little, and handed ten taels of silver to the old man. There is no way, although Lu Xiaoxiao gave Ye Qianling a lot of broken silver, but the smallest silver is ten taels, seeing that the old man still has to look for money, he immediately said that he didn't need to look for it, and jumped on the roof lightly.
Looking around, I saw that there were two parties fighting in the distance, one of which crushed the other, Ye Qianling didn't want to care, but seeing the figure of the obvious victorious side was very familiar, he didn't say anything, and wanted to see who it was, so he came to the roof next to the two groups of people.
Those people clearly sensed that someone was approaching, and as soon as one of them looked up, Ye Qianling was startled by the obvious shrinkage of his body.
"Why are you here?" After Ye Qianling saw that person, he looked at the rest of the victorious side, this is too coincidental, the capital is so big, how can they meet there?
Si Yan didn't answer Ye Qianling's question, but just looked at her so quietly, staring at Ye Qianling's heart for a while, and heard Zhou Xiaojie on the side say: "A few of us ran into a few thieves and dared to rob our things, these people are impatient." Those in guard uniforms dared to rob it. ”
Ye Qianling looked at the few people who fell to the ground, jumped down from the roof, and looked at the thieves who fell to the ground, "What do you think, why do you want to steal the people in the guard uniforms, don't you know if you can't beat them?" ”
"But we really have no choice, there is a mother at home who is sick and urgently needs money, so we can only take risks and find some relatives to get some money to go back for treatment." One of them said.
Hearing this person's words, there are obvious loopholes, and if the person who comes out to mix is stupid, he will not have a bright future, and it is strange that some people believe what he says.
"Then let me ask you, what is your mother's surname, how old is it, and how many people are in the family?" Chu Zimu asked.
"The surname is Hu."
"The surname is Liu."
As soon as this different answer came out, there was no need to ask, and I didn't even know my mother's surname, how could what I just said be true.
"Don't get out of here!" Jian Suifei yelled impatiently.
Seeing that they couldn't beat the group, they immediately got up from the ground and fled the scene as if they were running.
"How did you get here?" Chu Zimu glanced at Si Yan, and saw that the latter was still looking at Ye Qianling, "This place is so remote, how could Miss Wu come here?" ”
"I was just eating noodles at the noodle stall when I heard a fight, and then I couldn't help but be curious to come and take a look, but I didn't expect it to be you." Ye Qianling asked rhetorically, "What about you?" How did you get here? ”
Several people looked at each other awkwardly, but no one answered.
