Chapter Ninety-Three
Looking at Mei Shuang's provocative smile, Chu Xiruo's face turned pale in an instant.
The maid beside her was indignant, and shouted at Meishuang, "Obviously, you broke my young lady's kite, and you relied on our kite-"
"Don't talk, Qin'er, let's go." Chu Xiruo looked at the kite reluctantly, turned around and left.
Seeing that the goal was achieved, Mei Shuang didn't bother to pay attention to it, so she asked people to throw away the tattered Hongyan kite, and then threw down the mouthy Mei Ru and led people home alone.
Mei Ru was left standing alone on the grass, the maid beside her pouted while carefully wiping the blood oozing from her lips that had been knocked out by her teeth, and complained sympathetically, "Miss, why are you always so submissive?" Miss Frost is really too much, no, I have to sue Master SΓΉ when I go back, otherwise, it will be really lawless."
Mei Ru listened silently and shook her head, "How could my father not know?" But there is no way. If you go to complain, she will only get even worse and let her mother be rebuked by her father."
Su'er sighed, looked at the redness and swelling on Mei Ru's face, and said indignantly, "Miss, for the sake of Madame, you can bear it too much, and let her get it, this account will be collected one day."
Mei Ru was silent for a long time, and suddenly said, "Su'er, let's go, let's go to the river and sit and watch the kites." β
Looking at the colorful kites in the sky flying happily in the wind, Mei Ru, who had been staring at the sky, suddenly said, "Xu'er, look, how comfortable they are flying in the sky."
Accompanying the master to look up at the kite for a long time, the eyes were already sour, bored, listening to his master with envy to say such a thing, I couldn't help but be strange, yawned and said casually, "Miss, no matter how comfortable you fly, you are not led by a rope!" It's better than the birds in the sky, free"
The speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional, hearing this, Mei Ru's face changed greatly, and then smiled bitterly.
Oh, yes! A rope is pulled, and everywhere you fly, you are led by the rope, at the mercy of the rope, and you can never get out of that rope
How similar this is to her situation!
After yawning, she saw Mei Ru's stunned expression, and couldn't help but blame herself for poking Mei Ru's sore spot with her unintentional words.
When the master and servant went back, it was getting late, so Su'er accompanied Meiru to the pharmacy to buy some medicine, and then walked back.
When she was halfway there, Mei Ru suddenly stopped, her eyes changed, and she quickly pulled Su'er to a big tree and hid in the dark.
By the light of the lantern of the inn, I saw a few shadows that blended with the darkness on the high wall in the distance, as if they were chasing something.
Suddenly, on the high wall in front of them, a man rolled out of it, but "plopped" to the ground like a kite with a broken string, and then crawled forward with difficulty, trying to avoid the pursuit of those behind.
Su'er opened her mouth wide in surprise, but saw Mei Ru beside her calmly bending down, picking up a stone from the ground, and waving her hand into the distance.
Although I didn't know where the stone fell, I saw the few fast-moving black shadows quickly chasing in the opposite direction.
Then, Mei Ru hurried to the man's side, helped him up, and motioned for Su'er to help him leave quickly.
Su'er quickly knocked on the door of a private house, stuffed the hostess with a small ingot of silver, and was allowed to stay overnight.
Under the candlelight, the rescued man was covered in blood, with numerous knife wounds, and his breath was dying under the serious injuries.
Su'er spread her hands in frustration and said helplessly, "There is no Lang Zhong here, it seems that he will definitely not survive." β
Mei Ru was calm and calm, and asked the male owner of the house to help him take off his coat, and took out some small bottles and cans. It's also strange to say, those medicine powders stop bleeding when they see blood, and they are more stunned than the medicine Turin outside, I didn't expect that my weak young lady would also have medical skills.
When the man woke up the next day, he saw Mei Ru dozing off with her chin on her chin at the table in front of the kang.
Just as she was about to speak, Mei Ru had already woken up, and she was not surprised to see that the man was fine.
After washing off the blood stains, the man is very young, with a well-defined face, a wide forehead and a high nose, and thin lips slightly pursed, which can be described as dignified, especially the dark eyes, which are deep and boundless, and breathtaking.
Mei Ru's heart jumped, what a man with a special temperament and a jade tree in the wind!
Seeing that Mei Ru looked at herself without hesitation, the man also saw Mei Ru's appearance clearly, it was the woman who was slapped in the suburbs during the day and sat by the river and watched the kite silently for a long time.
Compared with the cautious and honest fear in the suburbs, her face at this moment was plain and waveless, and there was a touch of alienation and arrogance in the pair of grape-like apricot eyes on her beautiful face.
At the very least, they were two people who were completely different from what they saw during the day, and what was even more bizarre was that she cured herself.
Based on this alone, the other party is not a thing in the pool, the man was silent for a moment, and took the initiative to speak, "Thank you for saving me"
Mei Ru said lightly, "Okay, since it's okay, then I'll go first."
Before leaving, Mei Ru took out a small object from her wide sleeve and handed it over, "This is what you fell to the ground, return it to you, let's go."
The man saw that the color of the object had changed, he reached out to take it, hesitated for a moment and said, "I owe you my life today"
Seeing Mei Ru's slender back walking out of the door, her fluttering voice came from the air, "If you need it, I will sue you"
-- When Yunkong finished telling this story, it was almost noon.
Mei Shuang listened patiently to Yunkong for half an hour, if he said these two things, he could finish it in two sentences.
One is how arrogant she was to her half-sister Mei Ru before, she could slap the honest Mei Ru when she flew a kite, and she could find an excuse to bully her rival Chu Xiruo, who happened to witness these with her own eyes;
The second point is about how Yunkong met Meiru, and the reason why Yunkong obeyed Meiru everywhere was entirely because Meiru had a life-saving grace for Yunkong.
This is understandable, the grace of a drop of water, when the spring reciprocates, let alone the grace of saving lives?
But obviously, Yunkong's nonsense at this moment has nothing to do with the question she Meishuang asked him just now - why did she save her.
Since wood has a relationship, it is to avoid the question, and the answer is not what is asked.
Moreover, she also noticed that Yunkong did not tell what the small object that Mei Ru returned was.
Okay, and put away your curiosity, but Nima I really don't want to talk nonsense with you, I'm here to hear the answers, not to hear this nonsense.
Mei Shuang's displeased look was obviously dissatisfied, until Yunkong took out a small object from his arms.
It was a delicate ring, made of unknown material, jet-black and shiny, with a serpentine symbol around the ring and a flying eagle on it. The two animals carved vividly, one raised his head and spit out letters, the other spread his wings fiercely, and the black was already dull, Meishuang felt that this strange thing had an evil spirit and did not want to look at it more.
"Vanilla, you go over there and watch the dots, I'm going to talk to Miss Frost alone." Yunkong commanded.
"What is this? Is it the one you gave back to Meiru when you fell to the ground before? Meishuang asked, and her heart said that this Yunkong was not stupid, and she knew what she wanted to know.
"This is a token," Yunkong took a deep breath, "The name is 'Dragon Pan Eagle Wing', and it is a token belonging to Queen Himiko of the Yamatai Kingdom."
"What?!" Mei Shuang only felt a flash in her scalp, and her eyes were as big as copper bells, "A token of Queen Himiko?!" I'll take a lookβ"
This time, Mei Shuang couldn't help but snatch it from Yunkong's hand, looked at it carefully, and sighed, "Sure enough, look at this shape, this evil horse platform thing is really evil!" β
Mei Shuang, who had just finished sighing, raised her eyes, facing the deep eyes of Shangyunkong, and couldn't see the look inside, she was suddenly shocked, "Why is this thing in your hands?" Could it be that you are- you are from the Yamatai Kingdom? β
Before Yunkong could reply, Meishuang Huo Ran reacted and suddenly realized, "Understood!" I mean, Miyoko Kurang once said that the men of their family were cursed by Queen Himiko of Yamadai, and all the men of the Eastern Kingdom did not live to be fifteen years old, and you are a special case. I've always wondered, after a long time of trouble, you are not from the east, but actually a subordinate of Queen Himiko of Yamatai, ah! β
In an instant, Meishuang denied herself with some doubts, "No, Yunkong, such an obvious problem, could it be that the people of the family don't know about it for too long?" β
Yunkong's eyes were deep, and the corners of his lips suddenly curled, "Naturally, I know that it is true that I am from the East, but I am not a native of the East." β
Next, Yunkong told his life story, a story that sounded more poignant and full of twists and turns to Meishuang.
It turned out that Yunkong's father was the old king of Donglai Kingdom and the leader of the Jiurang family, and his mother was a native of the Great Qin Kingdom.
Decades ago, there was no trade between the Great Qin Kingdom and the Donglai Kingdom, and there were very few people-to-people exchanges. It wasn't until some adventurous explorers came to the Central Plains and discovered that the material richness and diversity of the Great Qin Kingdom were discovered, and the king of the Donglai Kingdom actually disguised himself as a folk artist and came to the rich Central Plains. It was at that time that I met Yunkong's mother.
At that time, Yunkong's mother was from a famous family, and her elegance was peerless, there is no doubt that she killed the king of Donglai Kingdom in an instant. Naturally, such a foreign marriage is not allowed, and even if the other party reveals his identity, he can't convince Yunkong's mother's family at all.
Who wants their baby daughter to marry far away from home, or be someone else's little wife?
When the king of Donglai returned home alone, Yunkong's mother was already pregnant with his child.
