Chapter Eighty-Seven: Love
The sky was bright again, and on the side of a waterway near the left side of the capital, there was a large ship carrying goods, which had been parked here for two days.
"Bian Shao, I've been waiting for two days, if you don't leave today, you won't have a chance, Bian Shao, you can't be confused!" The boatman persuaded bitterly.
This is the ship that came to Dongwu to pick up Bian Che and the rest of the people in Qianjilou, and the general rudder of Qianjilou was leaked out because of the mechanism map, and now it has been completely controlled by the imperial court, and it is not suitable for the capital to stay for a long time. Originally, all the people who stayed in Qianjilou could be evacuated a month ago, but in order to deal with some affairs of Qianjilou, and settle those who were loyal to Qianjilou but were unwilling to go to Dongwu, he deliberately stayed for an extra month, and because Qi Niang still had nostalgia for the capital, he stayed for a few more days.
Bian Che's face tightened, he looked into the distance and said, "Wait." "He can't leave Qi Niang here alone.
The boatman sighed heavily, then shook his head and walked back into the cabin.
Ye Sixteen saw the boatman's helpless face, hurriedly walked out of the cabin, saw Bian Che standing on the bow of the boat, and said worriedly: "Landlord, why don't I go to find Qi Niang." ”
"The capital is now very strict, if you go back to the city now, you will definitely fall into the hands of the imperial court, you stay here, I will go back, if we haven't come back at noon, you will take everyone away first." Bian Che said without any emotion.
"But isn't it just as dangerous for you to go back, landlord, how can we see you going to danger alone? They haven't seen me, and although they have my portrait, they shouldn't recognize me, so I'd better go back and find it. ”
Bian Che said in a deep voice: "This is my order. I'll leave the rest to you, don't let me down. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Bian Che get off the boat, and then galloped away in the direction of the capital with a carriage carrying goods.
His fingers holding the reins were white, and his thin lips were pursed. She didn't come, he gave her so much time, and she finally chose to turn her back on him. A trace of pain crossed Bian Che's eyes, and he reached out to put a mask on his face, and then shouted "drive" and sped up. In any case, he must find Qi Niang.
Sure enough, there were a few guards at the city gate who were checking out the people out of the city one by one, Bian Che slowed down the car, entered the city as usual, and away from the city gate, he rushed directly to the most prosperous area in the city, the Jinda Chamber of Commerce.
Jin Sanye's face turned pale with fright when he saw Bian Che coming, and he hurriedly sent someone out to see if anyone was watching, for fear that someone would find out that the Chamber of Commerce was still involved with Qianjilou.
Bian Che said coldly: "What about Jin Qiyu? ”
"The old lady is not feeling well today, so it is not appropriate to come out to see Ershao, no, Bian Shao." Jin Sanye hurriedly changed his words.
Bian Che snorted with his nose and let out a sneer, "She is not very strong and healthy on weekdays, why did she get sick as soon as something happened to Qianjilou?" I don't have time to ink with you, and I'm not here to trouble the Chamber of Commerce. Qi Niang is gone, I want you to send the eyes of the capital to help me find someone. ”
"This ......" Jin Sanye hesitated a little.
Bian Che's eyes narrowed slightly, stared at him and said: "I want to get rid of the relationship with Qianjilou so much, Gong Xiyang gave you a lot of benefits at the beginning, if you don't help me this time, I can tell me all about the collusion between the Chamber of Commerce and Dongwu, and see if Jin Qiyu can still protect herself." ”
Jin Sanye knew that Bian Che had always done what he said, so he immediately changed his smiling face and said, "Bian Shao wait a minute, I'll go and inform the old lady." ”
Two hours later, on the way to Phoenix Valley, Bian Che suddenly encountered a group of men and horses from the imperial court, who were all elite soldiers, and Bian Che and them fought for a while before escaping.
Qi Niang paced back and forth in the guest room in Phoenix Valley, fidgeting, Feng Yi said that the person who wanted to see her was delayed, and the news that she had released to Bian Che had not been answered, could it be that Bian Che had already left the capital? She was a little relieved, and hurriedly picked up Hua Wu on the table, and was about to go out when she heard a noise outside.
"Fenggu Lord, I heard that my people have been harassing you for two days, and I am here to pick her up today, Fenggu Lord should not stop her, right?" In the distance, he heard Bian Che's cold voice, which sounded calm, but with Qi Niang's understanding of him, he must have come with anger.
Qi Niang opened the door and went out, and when she saw Bian Che's white clothes stained with blood, Qi Niang's heart jumped, and she hurriedly ran to Bian Che, and said in surprise: "Landlord, you ...... it."
Bian Che leaned on her shoulder with her hand holding him, looking like a lover's hug, and hurriedly whispered to her: "The people from the court are chasing, run away, go to that little bamboo house." ”
Qi Niang put her arms around Bian Che with one hand, and said to Feng Yi: "Feng Gu Lord, we are the imperial court prisoners, I am afraid that staying in the valley will affect the reputation of the valley owner, thank you for the valley lord's hospitality for two days, Qi Niang will take my landlord to leave." As he spoke, he hurriedly left from the other road in Phoenix Valley with Bian Che's arm.
"Valley Lord, is this going to let them go? But Pavilion Master Jiang didn't say that he would ...... right away," a disciple said as he looked in the direction the two of them were leaving.
"We have no reason to keep them, it is up to them to go or stay, you go and deal with the officers and soldiers of the imperial court, and hold them for the time being, so as to buy them a little time."
"Does Gu want to help Bian Che?"
Feng Yi shook his head and said, "I'm not helping Bian Che, I'm protecting Ye Qiniang for my friends." ”
Qi Niang carried Bian Che all the way to the small bamboo hut in Liangxiu Peak, and saw that Bian Che's right shoulder had been soaked with blood, and his lips were blue, so she immediately guessed that he must have been poisoned, and quickly took off his clothes, and saw that his shoulders were black and purple, and she was shocked and scared, and hurriedly said to Bian Che: "Landlord, you bear with it, I will help you cut off the carrion on your shoulder, so as not to spread the poison." ”
Bian Che didn't speak with his eyes half-open.
Qi Niang rummaged through the boxes and cabinets in the room, and finally found something useful, quickly pulled out the short knife on her waist, hesitated for a while, and then lit a candle, roasted the blade on the fire for a while, and conveniently cut off a piece of meat on Bian Che's shoulder.
Bian Che snorted, cold sweat broke out, one hand grabbed the armrest on the side of the chair, looked up at Qi Niang's face, and pulled out a wry smile, "You are really ruthless." ”
"If I'm slow, you'll hurt more. Almost, the last piece, I continued. Qi Niang glanced at him, and then cut off a piece, this time the bones were visible, and even Qi Niang, who was used to seeing this kind of scene, couldn't help palpitating.
When the knife slashed through the bones, Bian Che only felt that his eyes were dark, his body shook violently, his brows were clenched, and his face and lips were already pale.
Qi Niang quickly wrapped the cloth around his shoulders several times, and then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, how does the landlord feel?" ”
I felt that my body was heavy, and Bian Che, who was physically exhausted, fell straight on her chest, Qi Niang's body stiffened, and she subconsciously raised her hand to support him with her arm.
"Do you only care so much about me when I'm hurt?" Bian Che's voice was as light as breath, but it fell clearly in Qi Niang's ears.
Qi Niang's heart twitched, and suddenly fell to the ground like a hanging stone, she asked, "Didn't the landlord receive my news?" I have something to delay, so let the landlord and Sixteen go first. ”
"On the day you left, the Thousand Machine Building had been exposed, and all news would be truncated. How could I leave you alone in this dangerous place? ”
Qi Niang looked at Bian Che in a daze, feeling ashamed and regretful in her heart, "The people from the Thousand Machine Building ......"
"I've ordered Sixteen to go to Dongwu with them first, and now I should have set off." Bian Che sat up straight, looked at Qi Niang for a moment, and said, "Even if I come to you in person, you don't want to go with me, do you?" ”
Qi Niang secretly lowered her head, "The landlord is willing to take the risk to come back to me, I am grateful, but I have something to stay, if I can't get an answer, I can't feel at ease even if I leave the capital." ”
"Okay, then I'll stay with you until you can rest easy." Bian Che looked directly at Qi Niang and spit out a sentence.
Qi Niang opened her mouth in surprise, and a trace of melancholy flashed between her eyebrows, "Didn't the landlord ask me why I insisted on staying in the capital?" ”
"I know more about you than you think." Bian Che muttered, no longer looking at her, his eyes moved to the side, his eyes were like paint, as if there were countless incomprehensible emotions.
The bamboo house is hidden in a foggy place in Liangxiu Peak, and the people of the imperial court should not be able to find them for the time being, but it is not suitable to stay for a long time, Qi Niang plans to wait for Bian Che's injuries to heal, and then move elsewhere. So for several days, they stayed in the bamboo hut.
On this day, she was going out to pick herbs to heal injuries and came back, seeing that the door of the bamboo house was wide open, as if someone had come, Qi Niang panicked, and hurriedly ran into the house, but saw a woman sitting on a bamboo chair drinking tea leisurely, and Bian Che was not in the room.
The woman turned around slowly and smiled at Qi Niang.
"I haven't seen you for many days, don't come unharmed, Ye Qi Niang."
Qi Niang's eyes couldn't help but widen, and a name burst out from between her teeth: "Li, Qiu, Shuang." ”
Li Qiushuang stood up with a smile, walked up to Qi Niang, looked at her a few times, and said, "I didn't expect your life to be so big, you can't die if you are under the Heart Devouring Gu, it seems that Jiang Qihan's medical skills are really not to be underestimated." ”
Qi Niang glared at her coldly, her eyebrows upside down, "What about Bian Che?" ”
Li Qiushuang smiled, "I'm so worried about him, he gave up you to save Bai Yuying, shouldn't you hate him?" Why are you living with him like a little husband and wife now, and you and I are so uncomfortable coming to this place. ”
"Less nonsense, I'll ask again, where did Bian Che go?!" Qi Niang pulled out her sword and put it on Li Qiu's neck, her eyes showing a fierce light.
Li Qiushuang was not in a hurry, pushed her sword away for a distance, and pretended to say, "Oops, it's so scary!" Bian Che didn't take it away from me, so it's useless for you to be cruel to me! In this way, let's talk about a condition, if you do one thing, I'll tell you where Bian Che went. ”
Qi Niang stared at her vigilantly and said, "What do you want me to do?" ”
"That's right! If you have something to say, it's good to say. Come, sit down first. Li Qiushuang said and sat down on the chair.
Qi Niang glanced at her and didn't sit down.
Li Qiushuang smiled meaningfully, then poured a cup of tea, pushed it in front of Qi Niang, and said: "This is a new medicine this year, it contains highly poisonous, and it will die of poison in an hour, if you drink it, I will tell you where Bian Che is." In the meantime, it's enough for you to find him. ”
Qi Niang sneered, "How do I know you're telling the truth?" ”
"I can't help if you don't believe me, but if you don't drink, you'll never find him. Oh, by the way, the person who took Bian Che poisoned Bian Che, I have the antidote in my hand, if you don't find him quickly, maybe Bian Che will die! Li Qiushuang said, then held up a small bottle and shook it in front of Qi Niang's eyes.
If he hadn't really been killed, Bian Che would never have left here. Thinking of this, Qi Niang picked up the cup on the table without hesitation, drank it all, and then put it heavily on the table.
"Say! Where is Bian Che? ”
Li Qiushuang suddenly leaned back with a smile, "Hahaha, the woman who is blinded by love is so stupid, Bian Che is in the woods behind here." ”
Qi Niang's eyes lit up, snatched the bottle in her hand, and then clicked her acupoint and hurried to the woods behind the bamboo house.
