Sihan replied, and his eyes fell indifferently towards the national teacher, "I didn't expect the national teacher to care about such a trivial matter." "Saying that, I don't plan to hide it," the thing that the palace slave was holding in his hand was a hairpin sent by Lan Yeyu. However, the main palace rewarded the hairpin to the palace slave. ”

Her tone was silent and flat, without half interest and arrogance.

The national teacher's expression moved slightly, "What the regent gave you is precious. Why did you come from to give it away? ”

Sihan sneered.

Yes, why did you give it away? Now the national teacher is saying this, as if she is saying that she is wrong.

Also, in the past, when Lan Yeyu was still in Kyoto, the national teacher attached great importance to her, and now it is natural to defend Lan Yeyu in front of her.

Merely......

"How can you accept a gift from a wolf-hearted person. Moreover, the old wounds of the palace have not healed, and the heart has been sick for a long time, so how can such a dilapidated body withstand the hairpin of the cold jade. ”

There was a hint of undisguised sarcasm in her eyes.

The national teacher pondered for a while, and finally said slowly: "Although Hanyu is positive, it is not bad for old injuries and heart diseases, just because Hanyu can ......."

Sihan was not interested, and he really couldn't listen to this.

She didn't know that Han Yu could become good when she reached the mouth of the national teacher, if it weren't for the fact that she valued Lan Yeyu, how could this national teacher, who has always been a quiet speaker, defend Lan Yeyu.

"What about Hanyu, there is no point in discussing it at this time. But since the national teacher is here, there is something in this palace, and the national teacher needs to be asked. Without waiting for the national teacher to say the next words, she interrupted casually.

The national teacher subconsciously choked on the words, and the gaze that fell on Sihan's face deepened, and then he sighed secretly, "What's the matter?" ”

"Today, I heard from the palace that the Gu poison on the young emperor's body is extremely ferocious, and although the national teacher has suppressed the young emperor's high fever, the Gu poison on the young emperor's body has not been completely unraveled?" As he spoke, his voice raised slightly, and his pupils became more and more gloomy, "Like, the Zi Gu that stayed on the young emperor's body is still alive?" ”

The national teacher's expression moved slightly, and his face finally showed a little complexity and helplessness.

I wanted to hide this matter in front of her, so as not to distract her from the matter of the young emperor, but now it seems that Xu is paper can't contain the fire.

He was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "The Zi Gu on the young emperor's body is indeed not dead. ”

Sihan's pupils trembled suddenly, and after a while, he returned to normal.

The national teacher looked up at her face and continued: "The Gu poison on the young emperor's body is really dangerous, although I suppressed his high fever and controlled the poison on her body, but the Zi Gu is too deeply hidden, and it is full of resistance, so it cannot be killed or drawn out. Unless, find the Gu Mother, and then use the blood of the Gu Mother's sojourner, you can draw out the child Gu. ”

Sihan's brows furrowed, his expression was distant and majestic, and he was not too surprised by the words of the national teacher.

It's just that how can she find the blood of the Gu Mu Sojourner, it's rare, she has to go to Britain in person to find out the masters of those alien people?

The more I think about it, the more I think about it, the more heavy my expression becomes.

"There is only one way to solve the Gu, and there is no other way?" Sihan was silent for a moment and asked in a low voice.

When the voice blurted out, the bottom of my heart was slightly tightened.

However, although he had luck and expectations, in the end, the national teacher finally said: "There is no other way." ”

The short word is in the ear, and all the luck and hope are all broken and broken.

She came back to her senses, pretended to be natural, took the tea cup beside her, and took a shallow sip, "If you haven't found the blood of the Gu Mother's sojourner, how long can the young emperor last?" ”

As soon as these words came out, there was silence in all directions, and the national teacher frowned and did not speak.

After waiting for a while, he said slowly: "Sihan, I will try my best to heal the young emperor." Until his Gu poison is not completely cleared, he will not return to the mountain. A few days ago, I called for his pulse, only to feel that he was poisoned, but it wasn't until yesterday that I realized that the Gu worm was extremely dangerous, and even the pill I refined couldn't help it. ”

Sihan's fingertips clasped the teacup, "This palace is asking, how long can the young emperor last." ”

Her heart was suddenly irritable, and her blurted out voice was not a little euphemistic and easy-going.

The national teacher raised his eyes at her, took in all her expressions, and finally said slowly: "If the Gu mother does not die, the young emperor can last for a year." And within this year, Xu Yes, I can refine the elixir that coerces Zi Gu. ”

year.

In the second half of the national teacher's words, Sihan couldn't hear it at all, and what kept hitting his heart was the hour of that year.

It's only been a year.

Her heart fluctuated, slightly wrinkled and painful, her hands trembled a few times, her fingertips suddenly became unstable, and she dropped the tea cup in her hand.

In an instant, the tea cup crackled to the ground, shattered into pieces, and tea stains were splashed all over the ground, embarrassed.

"The time of the year is not long, but it is not short. Come to think of it, it should be enough to spend a year to find out the Gu mother's sojourner. She forced her mind to press her mind and replied in a low voice.

As he spoke, his pupils shrank, his face was distant, and he continued: "Can the national teacher help this palace calculate a person's name?" ”

The national teacher did not speak.

Si Hanquan took him as a default, slowly got up and stood behind the long table not far away, raised his hand to grind, and then dipped the pen in ink and wrote a few strokes on the proclamation, just for a moment, the ink was completed, and she didn't wait for the ink to dry, she casually brought the rice paper to the national teacher, and naturally handed it to him, "Even if this name is this person." ”

The national teacher raised his hand to sweep away the two-character names on the rice paper and the proclamation, and waited for a moment to stare carefully before he said in a low voice, "The willow color is as soft as soft, and the fluttering flocculent spreads; Xiang, the meaning of ploughing for the liberation of the prison, and the lifting of the top. Therefore, if these two words are combined, they will also be soft and delicate. If this person is not arrogant, impatient, and has no hatred, he is still a good person. However, if this person has hatred in his heart and his ambition has not been rewarded, he will undoubtedly want to be sleek and progressive, and he will be endless until he achieves his goal. ”

Endless......

Sihan's pupils shrank, and his face was mixed.

The national teacher raised his eyes and looked at her, "Sihan, who is this person?" ”

"A man in the Wind Moon Field. Now the palace is considering whether to keep him. Sihan spoke casually and indifferently.

After two events in a row, his mood was finally affected, his expression was distant and depressed, and his heart seemed to have accumulated too much tiredness and powerlessness, and he couldn't get rid of it.

I thought that as the eldest princess of Tanglin, she could handle the politics of Donglin well, but she was suffering from internal and external troubles, and the burden was like this, how could she really relax.

In her life, Yan Sihan has to work hard all her life, and she can't rest or go well.

"Although the people in the Fengyue Field are good and bad, as a member of the Tanglin royal family, you still don't have to have more contact with those people." At this moment, the national teacher stared at her with deep eyes and worried, and spoke again.

Sihan nodded casually, "This palace knows from the bottom of my heart, thank you to the national teacher." As he spoke, the conversation changed, "These days, there are more teachers who follow the young emperor and take more care of them." Now that there is nothing else to do, the national teacher should go back and rest as soon as possible. ”

Seeing that Sihan's face was silent and his expression was not good, the national teacher frowned, and he was really worried.

It's just that the woman in front of her is also a strong person after all, and she doesn't like people's pity, worry, or even charity, so some words of comfort may be useful to others, but it is undoubtedly useless to say more to her.

The national teacher knew this, stood in place for a long time, and then turned around and left without saying a word.

For a while, the atmosphere in the hall completely sank, Sihan raised his hand and rubbed his temples, and then got up with a mixed heart, and slowly walked to the couch not far away to rest.

The next day, after the morning dynasty, Sihan reviewed the folds in the imperial study.

After noon, she came out of the imperial study, originally going to go to Fengqi Palace, but she changed direction in the middle road and walked towards the young emperor's bedroom.

Today's young emperor's complexion is much better than yesterday. Zheqian was accompanying him to read in the hall, and the two of them could see that they could see the gods when they read the books, and they forgot to eat and drink, and they didn't even know that Sihan had entered the dormitory.

"What are Wei'er and the royal brother looking at, they are so distracted." Standing next to the soft couch, Sihan spoke to the two people on the soft couch.

As soon as these words came out, the young emperor and Zheqian came back to their senses, and both raised their eyes to look at Sihan, and the young emperor smiled in surprise, "I read a small folk book, and the stories in it are very good." What happened to Sister? ”

The young emperor suddenly stood up from the soft couch and took Sihan's hand coquettishly.

Sihan said quietly: "Now it's noon, so I'll come to you for a meal." Unexpectedly, Wei'er and your third emperor brother could read the book and could see it, and they even forgot the lunch hour. ”

The young emperor hurriedly said: "Those stories are very good-looking, Wei'er was fascinated, maybe I didn't hear Mama Zhou ask Wei'er if she passed the meal." At this time, Wei'er asked Mama Zhou to pass the meal, and Sister Ah had lunch here before leaving. ”

Sihan did not refuse, and nodded slightly.

Zheqian seemed to be extremely happy, and ran to the door of the hall and shouted to Mama Zhou.

Sihan lowered his eyes and looked at Zheqian, only to see him slowly stand up, look at Sihan obediently and peacefully, and said in a low voice: "Today, the emperor said that he was bored, and his younger brother brought a few folk tale albums in the palace, originally intended to make the emperor a little fresh and tired, but the emperor was fascinated. ”

"Children love stories, and it's natural for Wei'er to be fascinated. It's just that your body hasn't healed yet, everything is still important to your own body, if you are tired of accompanying Wei'er, you should go back to the dormitory as soon as possible to recuperate, or let the imperial doctor take a look. She softened her tone slightly.

Zheqian's face was warm, and he nodded obediently.

At this time, the young emperor had already run back, pulling Sihan and Zheqian to sit at the round table.

The palace slave was also extremely fast, and in a moment, the round table in front of him was full of dishes.

When Sihan and the others were eating, the atmosphere was extremely harmonious, and the young emperor was always smiling and excited, and even grabbed chopsticks to add food to Sihan and Zheqian's bowls.

After the meal was finished, Sihan did not delay and left the dormitory.

When she returned to Fengqi Palace, before entering the palace gate, she stood outside the palace gate, turned her eyes to the palace slave outside the door and ordered, "Go and find out what the emperor did yesterday and who he saw." ”

The palace slave hurriedly responded respectfully and trotted away.

Sihan stepped straight into the hall, and after sitting for a long time, a little girl suddenly came back to the hall and said respectfully: "Eldest princess." The emperor didn't do anything yesterday, he just kept resting with the three princes in the palace, and he didn't see anyone. ”

Sihan's pupils shrank and nodded.

After a moment of silence, her expression moved slightly, and she said in a low voice: "Go and inform Zheqian, just say that in the afternoon, the palace will take him out of the palace and let him prepare." ”

The palace slave nodded, and hurriedly turned around and walked out of the hall.

The surrounding atmosphere fell silent again, silent and depressing.

Sihan took the teacup, lowered his eyes and drank it, only to suddenly realize that the difference in the entrance was that he didn't know when it was cold.

In the early winter of Tanglin, there is really no cold and cold, the breeze is wisps, the golden sun is harmonious, warm and warm. Among the four directions, the flowers and trees are not too withered, and even those begonias in late autumn are still blooming.

And the Great Zhou Guard, thousands of miles away, Haoran's team meandered forward like a snake. They have passed the first checkpoint of Tanglin, Huyong Pass, and they are still safe and unharmed.

Because of the rain, the weather was bitterly cold, and the snow was like flocculent, although it was white, but it was dense and thick, and the ground and the surrounding trees were completely covered with a thick layer of snow white.

In the whole heaven and earth, it seems to be wrapped in silver, and the scene is extremely clear and magnificent. However, because of this, the ground was covered with thick ice and snow, the big trees had collapsed, and the official road had been completely buried in the snowdrifts.

The Jingwei immediately got the order and dismounted one after another to set up tents.

The wind whined and blew, and it was really cold to the bone, as if it was going to freeze the whole person to death. The Jingwei rubbed their hands together, their movements slightly stiff and sluggish, and their eyebrows and eyelashes were frozen into ice slag.

Lan Yeyu's main tent was set up first, Jingwei was afraid that Lan Yeyu would freeze, so he first burned a brazier in the tent to ward off the cold.

When everything was finished, he came out of the tent, only to see the man covered in snow-white trim, standing on the ice and snow that no one had stepped on in the distance, the plain white robe on his body almost blended with the surrounding ice and snow, if it weren't for all his ink hair scattered at will, he would not have been able to recognize him at a glance.

"The tent has been set up. It's windy here, so why don't the emperor go back to the tent to rest first. ”

Standing behind Lan Yeyu, Fu Ghost whispered respectfully.

His voice was still as bad as usual, cold and respectful, and he had slowed down his voice, but as soon as these words came out, he still shook off a little snow on the branches of the trees around him.

"How far is this place from the next pass?" Lan Yeyu was silent for a moment, and then spoke out without waves.

His voice is extremely mellow and subtle, as if he said it casually, but the silence and calm in that tone seem to be like a thousand feet of deep pool, although it seems to be unwavering, but in fact it is deep and bottomless, and no one is afraid.

Fu Ghost stared at the end of the snowy white snow in front of him, and said respectfully, "Maybe there are still thirty miles to go." As he spoke, seeing that Lan Yeyu didn't speak, he was afraid that his master would be worried, so he continued: "Now that the eldest princess of Tanglin is in our hands, we will march all the way. A few days ago, when I passed the Huyong Pass, I was also having a smooth time, and if I want to come to the next pass, I should also have a smooth time. ”

Lan Yeyu's expression moved slightly, his dark gaze fell slowly in front of him, and under his gestures, he was all quiet and gentle. It's just that if it's too gentle and indifferent, it can also evolve into a coldness that rejects people thousands of miles away.

"Although the Huyong Pass passed smoothly, although it also followed Situ Lingyan's so-called weak points of the Huyong Pass, however, such a long procession was winding and rich, and the formation was huge, even those Tanglin guards guarding the Huyong Pass were completely unaware, how could it be possible? But if you find out, but don't send troops to chase after you, how is it possible? ”

Mellow and gentle voice, wandering, and not half sharp.

It's just that as soon as these words came out, Fu Ghost was choked up, and his face suddenly became complicated.

Yes, Huyong Pass is indeed too smooth, and this way, there is no Donglin chasing attack, to this day, this trip is also safe and peaceful, nothing unusual, everything is calm. And so calm, but too calm?

Fu Ghost's heart tightened, and he was silent for a moment, and finally reacted completely, "The emperor's intention is that those guards stationed at Huyong Pass deliberately did not chase us?" Or perhaps, it was intentional to let us in? ”

"Situ Lingyan knows the weakness of Huyong Pass, and how can those Tanglin guards who are marching and fighting not know the weakness of Huyong Pass? Yes, the terrain of the weak underbelly is not as steep as before, and it should be heavily guarded, and we must not be slack, but we came here, but we did not see any Tanglin not, nor was it ambushed by the Tanglin troops. ”

Fu Ghost's pupils twitched.

Lan Yeyu didn't say much, only slightly hooked his thin lips, and a shallow sneer bloomed on his handsome and graceful face. After a moment, he continued: "The people of Tanglin want to catch turtles in the urn, but unfortunately, they are not catching turtles, but tigers and wolves. Thinking about the prince of Tanglin, he is not too cowardly and vulnerable. It seems that in the future, the two will fight in pairs, and it will be enjoyable. ”

Fu Ghost's complicated face rolled up a little stunned, and when he came back to his senses, his pupils also flashed a little ruthless and cautious, "Your Majesty, why don't your subordinates send someone to the next pass to have a look." ”

Lan Yeyu didn't refuse, nodding slightly, if it weren't for the Fu Ghost who kept staring at him tightly, he would definitely not have noticed that he had nodded at this time.

And when the Fu Ghost was about to turn around and leave, but before he could make a move, Lan Yeyu spoke up again: "On this road exploration trip, you will personally lead people there." ”

Fu Ghost was stunned for a moment, he really didn't expect his master to let him personally lead the troops to the tomb.

It's just a way out, why do you need him to go out in person, not to mention, in this camp, he still has to supervise the three armies, how can he have time to explore the way ahead.

"At the checkpoint ahead, there must be a lot of Tanglin guards in ambush. Once the battle begins, if none of the people we send out survive, in this way, the exploration of the road will naturally be fruitless, and it will also waste time. And you yourself will lead the troops, and in any case you will return to tell the news. ”

Fu Ghost came over, nodded respectfully, and then instantly put down the slight surprise and complexity on his face, and turned to leave Ti.

The sky was overcast and snowy and windy.
