CHAPTER XIV
He remembered that once, he was whipped for Ah Xin, and Ah Xin sobbed and lay on the head of her bed, "Brother Ying must be very painful when he was punished for Ah Xin, Brother Ying is not afraid, if you take the medicine, Ah Xin will help you blow it, and it won't hurt." ”
There is also that pearl flower, Ah Xin likes it very much, but because she made a mistake, King Ning did not give her the moon silver.
"Brother Ying, this pearl flower Ah Xin likes it so much, just like I like Brother Ying."
……
On the day of the fall of Nanchu, he searched for a day, but there was no trace of Ah Xin, for so many years, he had been looking for Ah Xin, and wanted to tell her: "Brother Ying also likes Ah Xin."
The candlelight illuminated the entire imperial study, and the evening breeze swayed, blowing on the cheeks of the guards and the inner eunuchs, and the eunuch calmed his mind and counted the days, and now, it was winter.
Helian Jinyuan and Ying Qi stood side by side in the hall, Helian Minghuai's sword eyebrows in the hall were deeply wrinkled, he never thought that someone would poison the queen in the palace, and this poisoned person was actually the jade beauty he had been pampered in recent days.
Helian Jin bowed far away, his expression was calm, and said: "This jade beauty, who has been hidden in the palace for so long, is careful in poisoning, and does not dare to act rashly, I am afraid that there is another mastermind behind me."
Helian Minghuai looked at Ying Qi and asked, "Ying Qi, what do you think?"
Ying Qi pondered, turned the jade wrench in his hand, and said, "Your Majesty, forgive the minister's words, this jade beauty is probably from the Yao Palace."
Helian Minghuai's pupils constricted, but there was no wave on his face, but it was Yao Palace, and he was helpless against Yao Palace.
Xu Miaozhen still remembers her sister Xu Huan's hatred, and he also promised not to hurt Xu Miaozhen in the slightest. Over the years, he has seen that Yao Palace has become a little stronger, but he has not sent troops to suppress it, just because of a promise back then. But the queen was poisoned, and there had to be an explanation for this matter.
Helian Minghuai lowered his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Secretly execute the jade beauty, remember, this matter must not be publicized."
After the two of them took the secret order, they quit the imperial study, and they both knew that the jade beauty would not survive tonight!
In the Ling Kite Pavilion, Rong Yu dismissed all the palace maids and inner guards, the cold wind howled, fearlessly through the gap in the window, and constantly made a violent "whirring" sound. The room was dark, except for a faint candle flame beside the bed.
Rong Yu lowered his eyes, sat on the bed, and held a thin and transparent note in his hand, which was reflected on the candle flame, and a line of words immediately appeared on the note: Two days later, Suiyang gathers.
Later, Rong Yu placed the note on the candle flame and let it burn. She looked up and stared blankly at the darkness outside the window, knowing that she must be dead from the poison of the Queen.
Fortunately, she informed the princess of Mu Xin's news, and the word "Mu" on Ning Bai's left shoulder was exactly the same as the princess. When she saw Ning Bai for the first time, she felt that she was a little similar to the princess, but the person in front of her was a man. After returning to Ling Yuan Pavilion, she thought about it again, and that night she kidnapped Ning Bai and threw her into the dining room, only to realize that Ning Bai was a woman and the word "Mu" behind her left shoulder.
That night, the palace maid in the dining room almost found them, she knocked the palace maid unconscious, took off the palace clothes, and put on Ning Bai, and then Ning Bai's appearance surprised her, between her eyebrows and eyes were slightly similar to the princess, and a delicate little face was very similar to Princess Ning back then.
Recalling this, I suddenly remembered that Ning Bai didn't know the whereabouts of the princess, so how could he meet the princess and revive the Nanchu royal family together? Rong Yu clenched his hands unconsciously, his eyes full of worry.
The palace was heavily guarded, and she didn't think that she would get out alive, and if she could let the county lord and the princess meet, then she would also die a well-deserved death.
Helian Jinyuan and Ying Qi led the guards and broke into the Ling Kite Pavilion, but there was no one to be seen.
Helian Jin Yuan gave an order, "Search!" ”
All the guards have found Ling Kite Pavilion up and down, large and small wings, pavilions and lotus ponds, and do not let go of one place. After a while, the guards came one after another to report, "Your Highness, Ling Kite Pavilion is empty. ”
Ying Qi hid his hands behind his back, stood aside, and when he saw the situation, he said slowly: "People have fled, but the palace is heavily guarded, and Rong Yu can't escape."
Hearing this, Helian Jinyuan immediately ordered, "You wait to search secretly, and if you find any traces, report it immediately." ”
"Subordinates receive orders."
In the early morning of the next day, Ning Bai had already administered needles to the queen in front of the queen's bed, she didn't go back to the pharmacy last night, she was resting in the queen's palace, and she specially asked Xiao Anzi to say to the master.
After Ning Bai applied the needle for a while, Helian Jinyuan walked in quietly, with a tired face, a little haggard, and a faint black shadow under his eyes, obviously he hadn't slept all night. Ning Bai took the needle, instructed the palace maid to feed the medicine, got up and asked teasingly, "Your Highness was worried about a big matter last night?"
Helian Jin was tired, but he couldn't stand this ridicule, and couldn't help but show a smile, "Doctor Ning made fun of me." The conversation changed slightly, "First, I want to see the queen mother, and second, I want to inform Doctor Ning that the medicinal materials are about to arrive at the palace gate, and in order to avoid mistakes, I want Doctor Ning to get them in person." ”
Ning Bai put away the medicine box, put it on his shoulder, and said, "Isn't it a coincidence that Ning Bai is going at this moment."
Helian Jinyuan nodded in agreement, and said, "I will go to the imperial study today, but I can go out with Dr. Ning."
Ning Bai nodded with a smile, but did not speak, only thinking in her heart: Since the medicinal materials have arrived, she and her master will soon be able to leave the palace and return to Yucang Mountain.
Outside the palace gate, a delicate and luxurious carriage was parked outside the palace gate, and according to the laws of the Northern Liang, those who entered the palace were all subject to investigation. Xu has been a little long, Su Ziqing in the carriage is extremely impatient, his eyebrows are deep, and the word "anger" is written all over his face.
He lifted the curtain impatiently and shouted angrily: "Fu Cheng, what do you mean by detaining this son for so long?"
As the leader of the palace gate, Fu Cheng must do his duty as a leader. It's just that Fu Cheng is a bearded man in his thirties, old-fashioned and stern, with a fierceness hidden in his eyes, and occasionally unkempt.
And Su Ziqing can't see this Fu leader the most, he is dirty all day long, and the look at that beard makes people's hearts numb. He has been detained for so long today, and his anger is about to explode.
Fu Cheng was dressed in armor, his calloused hands clutched the handle of the saber hanging from his waist, and his slightly furrowed face was devoid of any emotion. His eyes were sharp, staring at Su Ziqing, and he said unhurriedly: "Master Su, it's just a routine palace rule here."
Su Ziqing didn't listen to Fu Cheng's way of sending people, he jumped lightly, jumped out of the carriage, and said endlessly: "Routine palace rules? Ben Gongzi has never seen the routine palace rules for so long, to put it bluntly, you Fu Cheng just have the heart to get along with Ben Gongzi! ”
Fu Cheng was unmoved, his face was cold, and his sharp eyes no longer looked at Su Ziqing, "Stick to your duty in the future, but it's not as boring as Master Su." After speaking, don't turn your head and whisper to the guards behind you.
Su Ziqing was slandered like this, and his anger almost erupted, looking at Fu Cheng's disdain, the flames burning in his eyes seemed to devour Fu Cheng.
Just as he was about to step forward and grab Fu Cheng's collar for a fight or two, a gentle voice suddenly sounded behind him, "Young Master Su? ”
Winter has arrived, and the clouds are dense and thick, somewhat gloomy, and depressing. The cold wind was biting, and Ning Bai couldn't help but tighten his collar to avoid the cold.
The corridor was extremely quiet, and a few palace maids walked by accidentally, and with the sound of small footsteps, they quietly left. Ning Bai lifted the medicine box hanging on his shoulder, and walked side by side with Helian Jinyuan, Ning Bai on the left and Helian Jin Yuan on the right.
"I don't know who the person who delivered the medicine is, and what to call it?" Ning Bai asked.
Hearing this, Helian Jinyuan seemed to pat his head for self-punishment, "Look at my memory, I almost forgot." He turned his head and said, "The person who delivered the medicine and I are cousins, and Dr. Ning doesn't have to worry about recognizing the wrong person, when I get there, I see the most beautiful man near the palace gate, and it is him."
A good-looking man? Ning Bai was puzzled: "How do you call it?"
"This person's name is Su Ziqing, everyone else calls Su Dagongzi, and Dr. Ning just follows."
Ning Bai couldn't help but say in surprise: "Su Ziqing?"
Seeing this, Helian Jin asked with a smile, "Does Doctor Ning know Ziqing?"
Ning Bai hurriedly shook his head, "No, no, I have just seen the true face of Master Su from afar." Ning Bai would not tell Helian Jinyuan that she not only knew Su Ziqing, but also teased him. How did he know that Su Ziqing was a relative of the emperor, if he knew, he would have avoided it a long time ago.
The promenade is not long, but it takes a little longer because there are many corners.
Ning Bai's hand unconsciously twisted the cloth belt of the medicine box, let it go again, lowered his head and secretly thought about how to deal with Su Ziqing, that eldest prince is not easy to mess with, he teased him last time, maybe he still holds a grudge in his heart. But...... It's been half a month, so I almost forgot about it......
As the corridor turned right, a cold face appeared under Ning Bai's eyes, and her first reaction was to bury her head, her expression was panicked, her hands unconsciously clenched the cloth belt, and her palms were also sweating. She quietly moved and hid behind Helian Jinyuan, for fear that the man would recognize her.
The early winter has just arrived, and Helian Jinyi's body is not as far as a healthy Helian Jinyi.
Helian Jianyi was wrapped in a navy blue brocade robe, her hands were hidden in the robe, and Xu Feng was followed by Xu Feng who was holding a sword. There was no trace of emotion in his eyes, and his face was slightly pale, no matter how well he disguised it, he couldn't hide the sickness between his eyebrows. But the handsome appearance covers up this insignificant place, if you don't have a heart, you can't see it.
If Helian Jinyi is elegant and gentle, then Helian Jinyi is lonely and arrogant.
Helian Jinyuan has always known etiquette and advance and retreat, and the imperial brother in front of him, who has only met a few times, is also not to be neglected.
"Second Emperor Brother got up really early today."
Helian Jinyi glanced at Helian Jinyuan, "Isn't it the same with the third emperor brother." ”
Helian Jin Yuan hooked his lips and smiled: "Jin Yuan is just in a hurry to see his father."
Helian Jinyi's eyes were cold, and he looked straight ahead, "In this way, the third emperor brother has to go quickly." ”
"Thank you, Brother Huang, for reminding me." Helian Jinyuan still smiled.
Helian Jianyi didn't say much, and passed by Helian Jianyi.
Ning Bai hid not far behind Helian Jinyi, and when he saw Helian Jinyi walking straight away, he hurriedly lowered his head and subconsciously took a few steps back. The shrewd afterglow stared at Helian Jinyi's black boots and walked away step by step, before he dared to withdraw his gaze, took a deep breath, and his hanging heart finally fell.
I was thinking about leaving as soon as possible, but I didn't know that I hadn't spoken to the Third Highness yet.
Suddenly, someone grabbed her arm tightly, Ning Bai's heart was so shocked that she hung again, and before she could look back, she didn't know that the person used her strength to make her suddenly turn around and take a few steps forward, unexpectedly, she saw her figure crashing into a pair of cold eyes.
Helian Jinyi's dark and deep eyes looked into Ning Bai's panicked eyes, and the four eyes were facing each other, happy or surprised.
Ning Bai's eyes widened, he was suddenly at a loss, he lowered his eyes in panic, his eyes were wandering around, his small chest was rising and falling rapidly, and his body was subconsciously struggling, but he couldn't break free. She clearly felt the beating heart in her left chest.
Helian Jinyi unconsciously clenched the slender arm in his hand, almost letting her slip away from under his nose, if it weren't for the faint fragrance of medicine, and then facing the weak figure, the appearance of such a young man would be almost unrecognizable.
