After dawn, he brought the clouds and the moon to serve Ruan Qingzhi as usual to freshen up. Seeing a pair of parrots dead under the eaves, both of them screamed in fright at the same time.

Lin An and Lin Ping hurriedly ran over when they heard the movement, and they immediately looked at each other in shock.

The death of two birds is not a big deal, but the two parrots with their wings outstretched and their feathers stand on end, and they clearly experienced a terrible battle before they died...... Or frightened.

The broken window paper also confirmed the speculation of the "tragic battle", but Lin An picked up the two parrots and looked at them carefully, then shook his head again.

There was not the slightest scar on Zhou's body, and it didn't look like he had experienced a battle.

It can't really be scared to death, right?

The four of them looked at the parrot and then at the window paper, and at the same time fell into deep thought.

Banyue suddenly screamed, slammed open the door and rushed in: "Miss! Miss, are you okay......"

Ruan Qingzhi sat at the head of the bed and looked at her inexplicably: "Of course I have something!" I'm going to be scared to death by you! ”

"Miss!" Banyue patted her chest to comfort herself, and then rushed over and hugged Ruan Qingzhi's arm: "When is it, you still make fun of me!" Something is wrong! ”

"What's the big deal?" Ruan Qingzhi frowned, "Yongning Hou called in?" ”

Banyue shook her head, so anxious that she couldn't speak clearly for a while, so she simply dragged Ruan Qingzhi's arm and dragged her out of the door: "Come and see for yourself!" It's all like this, it's a big deal, isn't it? ”

Xianyun hurriedly greeted him and whispered, "The two of them are quite bold, and there are no wild cats or anything like that around here, so it stands to reason that they shouldn't ...... Did you hear anything at night? ”

Ruan Qingzhi shook his head, Lin Ping had already called Cheng Hu over there.

Cheng Hu also said that except for someone who came secretly once and stayed for more than half an hour at night, everything was calm and he didn't hear any abnormal sounds.

That is, these two little guys didn't scream before they died?

But even if you don't call, there's always a sound from the fluttering wings, right? There's always a sound when you scratch the window paper, right?

Cheng Hu shook his head and said that he really didn't hear it, and then looked at Ruan Qingzhi with some apprehension, trying to explain that his hearing was not weak, and he was not lazy during the vigil.

Ruan Qingzhi waved his hand to signal that he didn't need to say much, and turned back to Xianyun and said, "It's not a big deal to die two birds, just dig a pit in the courtyard and bury it." ”

"But Miss," Banyue was the first to refuse, "this matter must be investigated!" In case there are bad guys......"

Ruan Qingzhi smiled and disagreed: "If it was really a bad guy who did it, since he could kill the parrot unknowingly, why didn't he kill me by the way?" Since he didn't kill me, it proves that he is not a threat to me, where am I afraid of him? ”

Banyue circled around in her heart a few times, waiting to refute, but she didn't know where to start.

Ruan Qingzhi looked back at the window paper and sighed, "No wonder I feel a little leaky at night." Remember to get a piece of paper and replace it with it, otherwise I will really be a miserable broken kiln here. ”

Xieyun agreed in a low voice, but he still felt uneasy, and stopped talking a few times.

Ruan Qingzhi patted her wrist and soothed: "Don't think nonsense, there are really no bad people." ”

"Oh-" Banyue suddenly exclaimed, "Miss is so sure that there are no bad people, don't you know how this parrot died?" ”

Could it be that these two little guys heard something at night that they shouldn't have heard and were silenced?

This thought flashed in the hearts of the five people present at the same time, and as soon as they made eye contact, the expressions on everyone's faces were rich.

Ruan Qingzhi rolled her eyes angrily, flicked her sleeves and turned back to the room.

Banyue hurriedly followed behind, and asked with a smile: "Palace...... It's not the first time Your Majesty has spent the night here, so what's the need to extinguish it? It took the lives of those two little guys in vain and scared us a lot! ”

Ruan Qingzhi didn't smile, sat by the window and looked up at the window paper, his eyebrows furrowed.

Banyue also smiled, and asked in a low voice, "What the hell is going on?" Is there a ghost in our yard? ”

Ruan Qingzhi smiled and shook his head: "Whose inner ghost would put aside his business and kill two innocent birds?" I was just thinking......"

Banyue pricked up her ears and waited for her to continue, but Ruan Qingzhi swallowed her words and said no more.

This is a trivial matter, and it is not worth the effort of the laborers to solve the case.

Besides, it is useless to mobilize the people.

The only significance of the death of these two parrots is to prove to her that the uninvited guest last night was not a nonsense in her dreams, but a real thing and a real person.

Someone really appeared at her bedside, said "You don't have to stay up until the end of your life", said "My Lizhu is the most affectionate", touched her face, killed her parrot, and left.

Everything that preceded it seemed affectionate, but the killing of the parrot seemed to be a warning, telling her plainly that he was not happy, and that he was by no means good.

For Nguyen Thanh Chi, this is a very bad sign.

Now she is a mortal, but the other party obviously has a great background; She doesn't know anything in the open, and the other party controls everything in the dark.

No matter how you look at it, her fate is in the hands of the other party.

If the other party is kind, it will be fine, if it is malicious......

What kindness can a guy who can kill someone else's pet for a demonstration for no reason!

Ruan Qingzhi slapped the table and stood up: "Which bastard is playing with me?" Isn't it bad enough that I'm like this? ”

Xianyun came in with a bowl of medicine on a tray and said with a smile: "You can be quiet!" If you say that you are miserable again, I'm afraid that the young ladies in the whole city will be unhappy with you! ”

"How?" Ruan Qingzhi frowned.

Carrying the medicine bowl in front of her, the smile deepened: "It's hot news that has just come out: Someone mentioned our master during the court discussion today, saying that he can't do it, even if he doesn't connect the whole family, at least he has to open the coffin and kill the corpse." His Majesty replied, saying, 'It's my father-in-law, and it doesn't hurt to save him any face.' Now the whole city knows about it, and the old marriage contract is still counted! ”

Ruan Qingzhi listened to her and was stunned for a long time: "Marriage contract...... Could it have been left uncounted? What are the people of Shangjing talking about these days? ”

Yiyun sighed and didn't answer, and raised his hand to signal her to drink the medicine first.

Ruan Qingzhi picked up the medicine bowl and drank it, wiping his mouth: "What good words are still hidden, can't you say it?" ”

Xianyun shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's not that you can't say it, but since you know it's not a good thing, of course it's better not to say it or try not to say it." ”

"If you don't say it, I know." Ruan Qingzhi raised his hand and touched his face: "It's nothing more than saying that I have no talent, no virtue, no beauty, no father, no mother, no upbringing, and the legend of a 'phoenix' alone is really not on the table, and the queen's seat can't be my turn at all, isn't it?" ”

Yiyun took the empty bowl and put it on the table, nodding.

Ban Yue jumped to his feet next to him and said: "If those people chew the root of their tongues, you just listen to it casually, and really come back to learn it from Miss?" They always like to choreograph people, what can be said about it! ”

Xianyun honestly bowed his head and listened to the training, and did not dare to refute a word.

Ruan Qingzhi turned his head and nodded on Ban Yue's forehead, and then smiled again: "I don't believe that the people of Shangjing will talk about me like this, unless someone deliberately instigates me behind my back." You help me clean up, let's go out on the street and see the excitement! ”

Banyue hurriedly agreed and jumped up: "This matter is really strange!" On the day that Miss returned to Beijing, the people of the whole city shouted 'Qingyang County Lord Chitose Chitose', and there was no reason to turn around and say that our Miss was not worthy of being the queen, unless they were used to being two-faced! ”

"That being said," Yiyun helped Ruan Qingzhi to sit in front of the dressing table, his face still worried, "but I'm afraid there will be a lot of people on the street today." The appearance of the young lady on the street will inevitably cause more discussions. ”

"What are you talking about?" Ruan Qingzhi suddenly laughed, "Talking about me being ugly? Do you want to talk about me as a toad climbing up a branch and pretending to be a phoenix? ”

Xiyun was a little apprehensive in his heart, and Banyue had already laughed: "You can say a few words, if this nickname spreads, what will the people of the world think in the future?" ”

Ruan Qingzhi carefully observed the wound on his face in the mirror, and said with a smile: "What else can you think?" I think our Majesty is of noble character, rich and noble does not abandon the chaff, does not love the beauty and loves the saltless! ”

Both girls were amused by her. With Yun Shu breathing a sigh of relief, he sighed lightly: "Miss's spirit is much better today, I guess the injuries on my body are not so uncomfortable, right?" ”

Ruan Qingzhi smiled, and then looked at the mirror again.

The dense scars are still there. The redness and swelling have subsided slightly from the previous two days. The most important thing is that the itch that suddenly disappeared last night because of the appearance of that strange person did not recur.

Now, as long as she doesn't pay attention, she can't feel the pain that pierces her heart and bones.

So, that weirdo isn't entirely malicious, is he?

Ruan Qingzhi couldn't get it right, and he couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

Seeing this, Xianyun Banyue didn't dare to ridicule more, and tacitly changed her clothes after finishing her makeup. Xiyun thought about it for a while, and then went to the outside to get a power fence and helped her put it on her head.

The wind and sand are strong in spring, and it is not noticeable to go out wearing a power fence.

Ruan Qingzhi praised Xieyun, and then remembered and asked, "You just said that there are a lot of people on the street today?" What's going on? ”

Banyue hurriedly said: "Miss forgot, I want to see the head killer today!" ”

Ruan Qingzhi patted his head and smiled bitterly: "I really forgot." ”

There are so many people who have died in Shangjing recently that she can't count them, so why would she bother to remember whose head is still on her neck.

Now that you do the math, there are indeed many people whose days have come.

For example, the relatives, doormen, and domestic slaves of the Rui Wangfu earlier, and Du Jinlan from the Tai Hospital, as well as some doctors of all ages and children who couldn't remember their names, were all scheduled to be beheaded on the first day of late February.

It was really hilarious.

As soon as Ruan Qingzhi and his party arrived on the street, they found that the crowd was heading towards the direction of the West School Field, and the killing must be there. It's still early at the moment, but it's not bad to go early to occupy a good place.

Now the Ruan family's carriage can't run rampant in Shangjing, but with Cheng Hu's gang here, it's not difficult to open the way.

All the way to the guillotine in the school field, Ruan Qingzhi lifted the curtain, and suddenly found that the supervisor turned out to be Chu Weiyang, who he hadn't seen for a long time.

There was an old man sitting next to him, but it was Chu Shen from the former Tai Hospital.

"Huh?!" Ruan Qingzhi was amazed.

Chu Weiyang, Chu Shen. Isn't there anything to do with these two people?

Although there are many people in Beijing, people with the same surname can always have some relationship. Ruan Qingzhi had such a thought in his heart, and when he looked at the two of them again, the more he looked at them, the more he felt that they were similar.

She's not one to live with questions.

Immediately, he ordered Cheng Hu to come forward and negotiate with the soldiers, and let them go to the prison and behead the platform.

A smile appeared on Chu Weiyang's face and he stood up: "Ruan ...... Ah, Queen Mother, long time no see! How did you cover your face? I used to let you see it, but now you don't want to see it? ”

"Let me see, let me see!" Ruan Qingzhi walked over with a smile, suddenly lifted the power fence, and put his big face in front of him: "Look! ”

Chu Weiyang thought that he would see the little girl's snowy skin and smile, but he didn't expect to raise his eyes and see a red and swollen ugly face bumping into him, so frightened that he screamed and jumped more than three feet high.

Ruan Qingzhi spread his hands, looking innocent: "You have to look at me to cover my face well, and I am scared when I see it, who do you say is to blame?" ”

Chu Weiyang sat down on the ground and was stunned, and it was only when Ruan Qingzhi put down the fence to cover his face again that he slowly stood up and said to a guard behind him: "Ling Laosan, your daughter-in-law bullied me!" ”

？！！

Ruan Qingzhi was stunned.

Following Chu Weiyang's gaze, he saw that the guard, who was so black that he seemed to have been pulled out of a charcoal heap, grinned, and a familiar smile appeared under his messy beard.

Ruan Qingzhi immediately pursed his lips in disgust and retreated: "It's really ugly." ”

Chu Weiyan laughed.

Next to him, Chu Shen coughed heavily, and his face was not good: "Come back and sit!" What does it look like! ”

Chu Weiyang's laughter stopped abruptly, and the whole person wilted in an instant, walked back with his feet croaking, and sat down.

Ruan Qingzhi was a little unhappy in his heart, and quietly slipped behind Ye Han and asked him, "What's the matter?" Didn't Chu Weiyang train troops in the north? Did you get him back and sell him to the hospital? ”

"No," Ye Han explained in a low voice, "Imperial Physician Chu is his uncle, of course he doesn't dare to be disobedient." ”

Really.

One of Ruan Qingzhi's doubts was solved, and more doubts came out again.

They are a family, why did Chu Weiyang never mention it before and never go to Chu's house?

Ye Han saw that she was too curious, so he had to explain to the guards next to her, pulled her aside to avoid the crowd, and explained carefully: "The Chu family has produced imperial doctors for generations, and Chu Weiyang's father is the most outstanding of their generation, and he has already become the head of the Tai Hospital in his thirties. It's a pity that Mu Xiu was hated by people in Lin, and after the plague incident, Du Jinlan wanted to find a scapegoat, and he was the first to think of him. ”

Ruan Qingzhi's heart suddenly chilled.

When the outbreak of the epidemic spread to most of the north, the emperor was bound to find someone to vent his anger. There was no doubt that the people who should have died were Ruan Wenzhong and Du Jinlan, but those two people were already precautionary and quite cunning, and quickly pushed out some people in the Tai Hospital who were doing their best to treat the plague, saying that the epidemic was originally under control, and it was all because the head of the Chu Yuan was greedy and abused the medicine stone, which caused the symptoms of the plague to be different from the beginning, which led to the loss of control.

On that occasion, more than a dozen people in the Tai Hospital were beheaded, and six of them were from the Chu family.

Since then, the treatment of the plague has been completely put on hold, and it has been delayed to the point where the city has to be burned, the mountain closed, and hundreds of thousands of people have been sacrificed.

Ruan Qingzhi listened to this story, and he couldn't breathe for a long time.

Ye Han glanced in Chu Weiyang's direction and said in a low voice: "At that time, Chu Weiyang was still young, so in order to avoid being implicated, the Chu family changed his identity for him and sent it in the name of his uncle Chu Shen. But Chu Weiyang refused to study medicine, and when he was seven years old, he ran out of the school and found me, asking me to help his father avenge his grievances, and he has been following me ever since. ”

Ruan Qingzhi counted the time with his fingers, and couldn't laugh or cry: "You weren't that old at that time!" There are so many princes, why did he choose you? Should he say that his vision is too bad or too good? ”

"It turned out to be okay." Ye Han smiled.

Ruan Qingzhi looked back at Du Jinlan, who was kneeling on the ground in the shape of a toad, gloomy.

At the beginning, he was so scheming, and it took so many good doctors to save the life of this thief, and now there is no way to let him die 10,000 times to relieve the hatred of the deceased.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was gone, Ye Han grabbed Ruan Qingzhi's hand and comforted: "The deceased is gone, Chu Weiyang has already seen it." Now that Chu Shen is in charge of the Tai Hospital, the atmosphere will get better again. ”

Ruan Qingzhi didn't have a good impression of Chu Shen, stared at his back twice, and pouted: "Chu Shen is in charge of the hospital, then I will be miserable in the future." I still want to open a pharmacy in the private sector, he has always looked at me unpleasantly, and he will definitely try to solve my problems! ”

"He won't." Ye Han smiled, "He didn't look at you unpleasantly, nor did he get angry with you for Ruan Wenzhong's affairs." In the Tai Hospital before, he made things difficult for you in every possible way, all in order to let you know the difficulties and retreat, so as not to be targeted by Du Jinlan and follow in the footsteps of the Chu family back then. ”

Ruan Qingzhi was stunned.

Chu Shen, that fierce old man, is so kind?

Ye Han nodded seriously: "The doctor is benevolent, Imperial Doctor Chu is far more kind than you think." ”

Ruan Qingzhi thought suspiciously for a long time, and suddenly his face was inexplicably hot, and he hurriedly changed his words and said with a smile: "So, Chu Weiyang doesn't follow his uncle." ”

Ye Han also laughed: "Yes." He was like his father, very paranoid at heart. ”

？！

Ruan Qingzhi once again suspected that he had misheard.

Ye Han spread his hands and said with a smile: "You see, how complicated the mortal world is. ”

Ruan Qingzhi couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and then realized that breaking off at this moment was not the occasion to laugh, so he hurriedly covered his mouth to hide his laughter, and tried to make a serious face.

At this time, the people under the guillotine had gathered a lot, and all the people in Wuyang were clamoring at the same time, and rotten vegetable leaves, rotten eggs, and fresh cow dung were thrown onto the stage incessantly, and the smell was stinking all of a stinking.

Ruan Qingzhi covered his nose and returned to Chu Weiyang and the others with Ye Han, looked at it for a while, and then asked in a low voice: "It doesn't seem that they smashed Du Jinlan?" ”

Ye Han nodded: "Imperial Doctor Du's charges are not good to tell the world, so the people don't know about it." They smashed the people of the Jin Palace. ”

Jin Wangfu, that is, the former prince Ling Shuang's side.

Ling Shuang has only been the prince for less than a month, and the plaque on the gate has not had time to be changed, and now it is easy to be the king of Jin again, so he doesn't have to toss back and forth.

And the people in his house will be beheaded?

Ruan Qingzhi looked at Ye Han and smiled: "You are amazing!" Not only dare to kill the former prince, but also coax the people to fight with you, and even throw away cow dung! ”

Ye Han spread his hands innocently: "The people are jealous and hateful, and it has nothing to do with me!" ”

Ruan Qingzhi snorted and expressed disdain, and then asked, "How did you do it?" What are the people of the Jin Palace? ”

"They," Ye Han smiled and his face sank slightly, "poisoning." ”

"You planted the stolen goods?" Ruan Qingzhi asked.

Ye Han was helpless: "Am I like that kind of person?" ”

Ruan Qingzhi wanted to say "like".

Ye Han saw this sign and hurriedly intercepted her words, and said quickly: "It was explained by the housekeeper in his own house, and his father has become increasingly ill in recent years, and the leg disease that the eldest brother once suffered from back then, all of which are due to the fifth child." ”

Ruan Qingzhi was a little stunned with fright, and asked in a daze for a while: "Is it true?" ”

Ye Han nodded.

This is something that Ruan Qingzhi did not expect. She looked at the embarrassed backs of the doormen and maidservants in the Jin Palace, and didn't know what to say for a while.

But no matter what, with this crime, Ling Shuang couldn't turn over anymore.

Ruan Qingzhi sighed for a long time, the time for execution has come.

Ye Han straightened his face and began to exercise his duties as a "guard", but Ruan Qingzhi couldn't bear it, and chased after him and asked, "So what are you pretending to be doing here?" When the emperor is tired of playing, play as a guard? ”
