071 Time is of the essence
Li Congyao's health has deteriorated, and it has developed to the point where it is not conducive to the continuation of the heirs. Therefore, I have never heard of the news of King Duan's wedding in Yanjing City, and Duanwang's Mansion is extinct.
If Li Xueyi is in prison and has a different head, it will no longer be possible for Duanwangfu to use the marriage to seek a chance for himself to make a comeback.
With a two-pronged approach, Duanwangfu will have no possibility of turning over from now on, and can only decline among the Northern Xia nobles day by day until it completely disappears.
Killing people invisibly, what a powerful means!
"Lord Wang, ...... of humble duties."
"This king had a free day before yesterday, and he flipped through the old case files five years ago in the treasury of the Criminal Department, and occasionally had some experiences, I don't know if you want to hear it."
"I want to enter Begonia Garden again, personally check the subordinates who are serving around the county lord, and ask the prince to agree."
That was certainly not what she was meant to say. The situation that Duanwangfu is facing now has even smelled danger for her, an outsider, and she is dormant in the Zhenfu Division in order to wash her family's grievances with blood. Before the big thing is accomplished, it is not cost-effective to let yourself lose your life because of someone else's affairs.
However...... Li Congyao is too ruthless! He knew how important the old case file was to Jun Qinglan five years ago, so he went to look through the file in advance, so as to hold her secret firmly in his hands. Then he threatened her mercilessly.
Jun Qinglan didn't know if what Li Congyao said was related to her affairs, but she didn't have the capital to verify it. At times like these, she has no choice but to compromise. So, the resignation that came to the exit finally changed.
She secretly bared her teeth, it hurt! Li Congyao is as cunning as a fox, it's really difficult to deal with!
"Yes." Li Congyao lowered his eyes: "This king ordered Rong Han to give you the key to the Begonia Garden, that is, to allow you to enter and leave the Begonia Garden freely, and you don't need to report to the king." ”
"Thank you, Lord Wang."
Jun Qinglan immediately gave her leave, she had no way to let herself be alone with Li Congyao again. She spent five years earning a good name for herself, but never for herself, just to get a chance and give justice to her parents, brothers and clansmen who died tragically. However, now she has fallen into the quagmire of Duanwang's Mansion and cannot extricate herself, and that person has ruthlessly ruined her dream. If she gets along with Li Congyao for a while, I don't know if she can't help but carry a knife to stab that person to death.
Standing on the high steps outside Lanyun Pavilion, Jun Qinglan took a deep breath. The wind from the heights, refreshing and cool, gently brushed her hair and clothes, and the heat in her heart seemed to subside a little. At this moment, it was twilight, and the sunset had fallen obliquely on the western canopy, and the brilliant gold in the day had been soaked in the clouds into a dazzling red.
Red!
Jun Qinglan closed her eyes, this originally festive and warm color suddenly made her feel ominous.
Li Xueyi was born in the winter of the fiery red sunrise, and since then the tragedy of her life has begun. And herself...... I can never forget that day in the summer five years ago, under this gorgeous red glow. Those fresh lives that laughed and scolded in front of her eyes every day turned into blinding red blood in an instant. Until now, Jun Qinglan always thought that the clouds on the canopy of Guanzhou Mansion that day must have been stained with the blood of the tragic death of the family, otherwise, how could it be so shocking?
"Go away!"
She hurriedly raised her hand and waved her sleeves in an attempt to force the haunting Hongxia back from her eyes. But for some reason, the clouds overlapped layer by layer, and the color gradually deepened, and it has changed from the original red to a thick and indissolvable bright red. Pieces of bright red, as if stained with pungent blood, swept towards her.
"Go away !!!!!"
Jun Qinglan didn't know that the last sound was hoarse, and she seemed to feel a warm liquid snaking down her cheeks. She didn't know what it was, but in her vague vision, she seemed to see a figure running towards her like the wind. The next moment, all consciousness was completely obscured by the thick blood.
When Jun Qinglan woke up, she was lying on the bed in her room in Qingluyuan, and the fragrance of magnolia flowers swept by the breeze and sent it to the house, which was refreshing. She blinked, and turned her head abruptly. Only then did I see that in the bronze Rui Beast incense burner on the table by the window, there was curling smoke steaming. Like a veil like mist, it disappears into the invisible after a few swirls.
This season is not the time when magnolia is in full bloom, and it turns out that this is because of the rich fragrance of magnolia flowers that you can smell at this time. The incense burner vaguely remembered that it seemed to have been seen in Li Congyao's carriage, and she wanted to get up and go forward to check it. struggled a few times but never got what he wanted, only to find that he couldn't use half of his strength.
This is...... Sick?
"God has eyes, Lord Jun, you have finally woken up." Rong Xizheng came in with a food box, and when he saw Jun Qinglan, a little surprise appeared in his eyes.
"You don't know how scary you looked last night." Rong Xi put the food box on the table and immediately came over to help Jun Qinglan get up.
"I ...... yesterday." She wanted to ask what happened yesterday, but she saw that she was wearing only a shirt. The gauze that was worn outside was separated from the table next to it. So, with a bang in his head, his face suddenly changed: "My clothes ......." ”
"But you're still uncomfortable?" Rong Xi's face changed: "The slave will return to the prince and invite Lang Zhong to you." ”
"You tell me." Jun Qinglan frowned, and withdrew Rong Xi's sleeves: "How did I go back to the room yesterday?" And who changed my clothes? ”
"Yesterday, the lord suddenly fainted, but fortunately, the prince reacted quickly and caught your body, so that you were saved from falling from the high platform. After that, the prince personally sent you back to Qinglu Garden. By the time the minions arrived, you were on the bed. As for who changed your clothes, the minions really don't know. ”
Jun Qinglan's body was stiff, as if struck by lightning. Is it Li Congyao? Li Congyao changed her clothes?!!
He...... But have you learned that you are a woman?
"Yesterday was a scary tight. Our Lanyun Pavilion is very high, and you suddenly fell down at the edge of the steps. If it weren't for the prince, where would you see the minions again today? Anyway, what happened to Lord Jun yesterday? Suddenly, as if he was having an epilepsy, he cried and fussed and just said what he wanted to go away. At that time, it was just you and the minions on the steps, what were you bombarding? ”
Jun Qinglan's heart was in turmoil, thinking about the possibility that Li Congyao knew that she was a woman, and she didn't hear Rong Xixi babble at all.
"My lord, because I have been dealing with dead corpses for many years, what evil has I been contaminated with? The slave asked for a peace charm in Puning Temple in the past, so it is better to give it to the adult, so as to protect your safety. ”
"Thank you." It wasn't until Rong Xi stuffed the peace talisman in Jun Qinglan's hand that she gradually stabilized her mind: "This is your favorite, how can I win love?" ”
She returned the peace charm to Rong Xi and took a deep breath.
No matter how it ends, she always has to face Li Congyao. The suspicions hanging over Li Xueyi and Duanwang's Mansion are still waiting for her to detect, and Li Congyao will not be soft on her just because she is a woman. Naturally, he would not betray himself, after all, he was very useful to her.
As soon as she raised her eyes, she saw Rong Xi's eyes full of concern, and she couldn't help but feel a little warm in her heart. So, he smiled at him and said, "Our people are very hard, and the ghosts and gods dare not get close. My father-in-law doesn't have to worry about me. I think....... ”
She raised her hand and pressed the corner of her forehead, until now, there was still a slight dizziness in her brain: "I think, maybe it is the hidden danger left by the incense in Nandefang that day." ”
Lang Zhong also said the same, and said that the adults were because they were running around for days and had an uncertain schedule. In addition, I didn't eat for a day yesterday, so I collapsed for a while before I fainted. Adults have an excellent physical foundation, and after waking up, they will be well soon. ”
"Lang Zhong?" Jun Qinglan's eyes lit up, and he immediately grasped the point in Rong Xi's words: "Where did Lang Zhong in the palace invite him?" ”
Even she herself can't be sure what kind of drug she has been in, but there is a Lang Zhong who can diagnose it? It must be unusual for Lang Zhong to be invited by Li Congyao at this time, after all, she was once drugged, but it was a secret.
"It's Uncle Liu, the horseman in our house. I heard that I had received the favor of the prince when I was in the border city in my early years, so I followed the prince back to the palace. This Uncle Liu is really a hidden god, if it weren't for the fact that the prince suddenly contracted that terrible strange disease, he was afraid that he would be able to hide his skills for a lifetime. ”
Rong Xi shook his head as he spoke: "Speaking of which, Uncle Liu is also a strange person, he obviously has the ability to reach the sky, but he only focuses on raising horses. Even though the prince respected him very much, he insisted on being with the horses every day, so the prince left him alone. This matter is a secret in our palace, and if it weren't for the prince's explanation, the servants wouldn't dare to mention it to you. ”
Jun Qing's blue eyes flashed slightly, this should be a means used by Uncle Liu to hide his identity and protect himself. Hidden in the world, who would have thought that an inconspicuous horseman in Duanwang's Mansion would be a powerful miracle doctor?
No wonder the legend says that Li Congyao is dying of illness, but she clearly sees his body improving day by day.
"Have the county lord and Mama Zhang ever fainted?"
"Yes." Rong Xi said: "However, they passed out for a short time, and they woke up in a moment, and only adults were the most serious. ”
Jun Qinglan nodded, beckoned to Rong Xi and said, "Trouble my father-in-law to help me up, I'll go and see the county lord." ”
"It's not going to be done." Rong Xi waved his hand again and again: "The prince ordered the slave to bring breakfast over, and the slave must watch the adult finish eating before leaving." The prince said, you don't have to go anywhere today, just rest in the house for a day. ”
Jun Qinglan smiled lightly: "Where can I feel at ease." ”
Fu Lai's death is like a sword hanging over the head of Duanwangfu, and he can't tell when he will be cut down mercilessly. Her current life has been firmly held in Li Congyao's hands, and she must not watch Duanwangfu suffer.
"You don't know." Jun Qinglan sighed: "Time is life!" ”
