Chapter 36 The Last Resort

Nishinomiya Ryufang Garden.

It's not the first time Fang Jinyi has come here, she used to follow Yan Yumo a few times when she was young, and Yan Yumo's mother, Concubine Li, was still alive at that time.

Later, after Concubine Li died, Fang Jinyi never went to again, but Yan Yumo would mention Liufangyuan to her from time to time.

Yan Yumo sent two palace maids to take care of Fang Jinyi's food, clothing, housing and transportation, the palace maids had not seen Fang Jinyi before, and now they only knew that she was the county lord of Dongli Kingdom, and because the old lady who was assigned here repeatedly admonished, she was very careful to serve.

Xiao Tao followed Fang Zihuai out of the palace to pick up Shengsheng, but he couldn't come back for a while, Fang Jinyi didn't want to sit in the house, so he was wandering around the garden casually.

After many years, Fang Jinyi is no longer familiar with this place, and some places have also been renovated, which is not the same as in his memory.

Walking into the small garden, where there was a swing, Fang Jinyi was stunned for a moment, and then walked over.

This swing frame is obviously new, but also, after so many years of wind and rain, the first swing has long been riddled with holes.

If there is anything that Fang Jinyi impresses most about Liufangyuan, it is this swing. In the past, when Concubine Li was alive, she loved to be pure and stayed in her garden every day.

However, as long as Yan Yumo brought Fang Jinyi to Liufang Garden, Concubine Li would take them to wander around the palace, but at most of the time they stayed in this garden.

At first, there was no such swing, but Yan Yumo inadvertently mentioned to Concubine Li that Fang Jinyi likes to swing, and when Fang Jinyi went to Liufangyuan again, there was more of this swing.

In her memory, Concubine Li was very good to Fang Jinyi, and every time Fang Jinyi came to visit her, she would prepare a lot of delicious things and then accompany her on the swing. When Yan Yumo gets out of class, he will take them to put river lanterns and kick shuttlecocks together.

Fang Jinyi likes Concubine Li very much, and on the day Concubine Li died, she and Yan Yumo stayed in front of Concubine Li's bed. Later, when Concubine Li really closed her eyes, the two of them cried uncontrollably, and I remember that Yan Zhe said that she was like Concubine Li's daughter at that time.

Yes, indeed. Concubine Li treated Fang Jinyi like a daughter, and even a few days before she died, she gave Fang Jinyi a pair of pearl hairpins that she had always cherished, saying that it was a pity not to see her grow up and get married.

Touching the crimson swing pole, Fang Jinyi suddenly felt deeply sad, if Concubine Li was still alive, maybe she and Yan Yumo would not be able to go this far.

"Hibiscus."

A gentle voice suddenly came from behind him, and Fang Jinyi didn't have to think about it to know that the person who came was Yan Yumo, because he was the only one who would call her name so gently.

The palace maid next to him had already retreated into the distance under Yan Yumo's signal, and Yan Yumo looked at Fang Jinyi, who was facing away from him, and his eyes became deep.

"Do you remember the swing?"

Fang Jinyi nodded with a smile and said softly, "Of course I remember." It was a very happy and beautiful time. Fang Jinyi turned around and sat on the swing, holding the rope with one hand and looking at Yan Yumo.

Yan Yumo immediately understood, and walked over to stand behind her with a smile, shaking the rope slightly. He didn't dare to push too hard, and when Fang Zihuai was talking to him, Fang Zihuai revealed to him that Fang Jinyi had injuries on her body, so he carefully protected Fang Jinyi from letting her fall.

"Why didn't you tell me about that?"

Fang Jinyi's eyes drooped slightly, and he said softly: "Although I have been hiding in the General's Mansion by concealing my true identity, there are still many people looking for it, so the fewer people who know, the better." ”

"So who are you?" Yan Yumo said bluntly, he knew that the identity of the 'county lord' was not true at all, or that Fang Jinyi was indeed the county lord, but she also hid other secrets.

Fang Jinyi was silent, and after a while, his voice was a little hoarse: "Yumo, I can't say." ”

There was a soft sigh behind him, and then he heard Yan Yumo say: "That's it, you don't want to say it, and I won't force you." It's just Jinyi, I don't care who you are, as long as you say it, I will definitely help you. ”

Fang Jinyi looked back at her, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, "I know." ”

Yan Yumo also had a smile on his face, he raised his hand and touched Fang Jinyi's head as usual, then stopped the swing and walked around to stand in front of her.

"You've come to the South this time, but what's the matter?"

Fang Jinyi looked up at him, hesitated for a moment, stood up and walked in front of him, "To be honest, I don't know either. ”

Seeing Yan Yumo's puzzled expression, Fang Jinyi sighed helplessly, "Although I have recovered my identity, I am still the same as before, no matter what I do, I can't help it." ”

"What do you mean...... Someone coerced you? Yan Yumo frowned, seeing that Fang Jinyi didn't make any reaction, he thought about it and asked in a low voice: "But the king of Dongli Kingdom?" ”

Fang Jinyi thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It's been a year since I returned to Dongli, but I have never seen the king, and every time the will is conveyed by His Royal Highness Liyang. Speaking of this, Fang Jinyi suddenly felt strange, why didn't the king show up?

Si Yousi was originally the biggest secret of the Dongli Kingdom, and now that she has gone back, no matter what, the king will summon her. But in the past year, the monarch has only decreed the restoration of her status as the county lord, but has never shown up, which is very unreasonable.

Yan Yumo saw Fang Jinyi suddenly frowning, thinking that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" But what's wrong? ”

Under Yan Yumo's nervous inquiry, Fang Jinyi quickly came back to his senses, shook his head with a smile and said, "It's okay, I'm just thinking about why Sheng Sheng hasn't come yet." ”

"The General's Mansion is some distance from the Imperial Palace, so it should be almost there at this moment." Yan Yumo looked at Fang Jinyi with a gentle face, and when he saw her worried look, he smiled and comforted: "Your relationship with Shengsheng is still as good as before, and you will not feel comfortable after only being separated for so long." ”

"Sheng Sheng treats me very well." Fang Jinyi nodded with a smile.

As he was talking, a string of figures appeared not far away, but he didn't see them because Fang Jinyi had his back to him. Yan Yumo looked carefully, looked at Fang Jinyi and said, "Look, isn't this coming." ”

Hearing this, Fang Jinyi immediately turned around and saw two guards walking towards this side with Sheng Sheng and Xiao Tao.

"See the Holy One."

"Excuse me, you guys stand down first." Yan Yumo waved his hand to let the two guards retreat, and then looked at the veiled Sheng Sheng, feeling very puzzled in his heart.

Sheng Sheng and Xiao Tao knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "The slave has seen the saint." ”

"Get up."

Sheng Sheng stood up and walked up to Fang Jinyi, bowed to her, and then stood quietly next to her.

"Shengsheng, why do you want to cover your face with a veil?"

Sheng Sheng bent down slightly and replied, "The slave maid was injured not long ago, and her appearance was damaged, and she was afraid that the saint would be frightened when she saw it, so she covered it with a veil, and asked the saint to forgive her sins." ”

"Have you asked the doctor to see it?"

Yan Yumo looked at Sheng Sheng with some concern, she had been following Fang Jinyi all the time, and naturally she had known him for many years.

"After reading it, the doctor said that it will get better in the future."

Yan Yumo glanced at her, then looked at Fang Jinyi and said, "I'll let the imperial doctor show you later, I heard Zihuai say that you are also injured, and it seems to be quite serious." ”

"Don't bother, my injured doctor has already seen it, and it won't get better for a while, just take care of it slowly." Fang Jinyi smiled and rejected Yan Yumo's kindness.

Since Fang Jinyi didn't want to, Yan Yumo didn't want to force it, so he just frowned and asked, "Who hurt you?" ”

Fang Jinyi was speechless for a while, Xiao Tao stood beside her and lowered her head, after thinking about it, Fang Jinyi showed a smile in the past and said, "It's just an accident, it's all our own carelessness." ”

Yan Yumo didn't believe Fang Jinyi's words, knowing that she had something unspeakable to hide, and it was hard to say more, so he put this question aside for the time being, preparing to have the opportunity to ask again.

"If you're tired all day, go back to the house and rest first, and I'll come over to accompany you for dinner later."

Fang Jinyi suddenly bowed, "The Holy State's affairs are heavy, so you don't have to suffer from this experience." I am very familiar with this palace, and I will take care of myself, so please rest assured. ”

Yan Yumo looked at Fang Jinyi, who lowered his head, was silent for a moment, and nodded: "It's okay, then I'll go first, if you lack something, just say, I've already ordered it to go down." ”

Fang Jinyi nodded, and after watching Yan Yumo walk away, he looked at Sheng Sheng and said, "How is it?" Is your body better? ”

"Don't worry, Miss, I'm fine." Sheng Sheng shook his head with a smile, and then didn't care that Xiao Tao was still beside him, and said directly: "On the contrary, Miss, it will take a hundred days to break your muscles and bones, not to mention that you are broken bones." The second son said that your injuries must be taken care of, otherwise it will be difficult to heal. ”

Fang Jinyi didn't speak, turned around and led them out of the garden, and the previous palace maid and eunuch immediately stepped forward. When Fang Cai Yan Yumo left, he deliberately walked around to them and explained that they must take good care of these people, so they didn't dare to be negligent and slack.

Although Yan Yumo let them live in Liufang Garden, Fang Jinyi did not live in the main hall, after all, this is where Concubine Li lived before her death. And she is just a small county lord, if she lives here, she must have someone to play on the second day, making it difficult for Yan Yumo to do.

Therefore, Fang Jinyi lived in the side hall, and Xiao Tao lived in the room next to the side hall with Sheng Sheng, which has always been the place where the personal palace maid who serves the master lives.

In the dinner room, Fang Jinyi waved away the palace maid and eunuch, leaving only Sheng Sheng and Xiao Tao, her left hand was inconvenient, Xiao Tao waited carefully beside her, and her low eyebrows were completely different from when she confronted Liu Qingqing in the General's Mansion.

Sheng Sheng sat opposite Fang Jinyi, she didn't want to sit down, after all, there were many people, she was just a maid, and eating at the same table with her master would inevitably cause people to talk a lot.

However, Fang Jinyi didn't care at all, what she cared about most at the moment was Shengsheng's body, although on the way to the south of the country, Su Zixu had taken good care of Shengsheng's body, but after all, she had been tortured for so long, and she couldn't get better for a while.

Fang Jinyi also asked Xiao Tao to sit down and eat together, but Xiao Tao refused, saying that it was not etiquette, although Fang Jinyi said and persuaded, she still insisted on serving, and Fang Jinyi went with her.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, the relationship between Fang Jinyi and Liyang has long been broken, and the reason why this relationship is still maintained is only because Du Mo is still in Liyang's hands.
