Chapter 43 The edict returns to Beijing

"Hongxia Yike will definitely send someone to search under the cliff, you and I need to find a place to hide." Without giving lime time to think nonsense, Qiu Chulin put his arm on Lime's shoulder, "Ling'er, I'm a little drowsy, you can help me a little." ”

Qiu Chulin's face was slightly red, and his condition was not very good. Lime helped him find a hidden cave under the cliff.

The two piled up some rocks in front of the entrance of the cave and arranged them to hide the entrance of the cave.

The cave was dark and very cold, only a few gaps let in a few rays of sunlight, Qiu Chulin was seriously injured and fell into the water, and at this moment he actually launched a high fever.

He was sweating profusely, trembling all over, shivering one after another.

Lime went over to check, and as soon as he approached, he stopped him by the waist and hugged him, and the whole person leaned over and curled up in Lime's arms, like a helpless child.

"It's cold, it's cold... I'm so cold......" Qiu Chulin's iron arm hugged her tightly, and at the same time kept approaching her, as if he was using her as a stove to keep warm.

There was a sound of rustling outside, and Lime quickly took off her robe and draped it over him, covering his mouth so that he could no longer make a sound.

"You guys look along the river again, and the others go and see if there's a cave where you can hide people!" The leader said, "One of those two people is seriously injured, and the other is a woman who is powerless, and she will definitely not survive if she falls off such a high cliff, and she will withdraw if she can't find it after half an hour!" ”

"Yes!" The crowd dispersed.

Qiu Chulin leaned on Lime's arms and trembled even more, in order to avoid the search, Lime had no choice but to click on his sleeping hole and let him fall asleep.

Half an hour later, the people outside the cave did not find the slightest trace, and returned in vain, so they decided that the two of them were washed downstream by the river after falling into the water.

When the group was gone, Lime cleared the rocks piled up at the entrance of the cave and let the sunlight shine into the cave.

She relieved Qiu Chulin's sleeping hole and woke him up, but Qiu Chulin still had a high fever and was a little delirious.

Lime picked some herbs and bandaged Qiu Chulin's wound again, forcibly fed him some wild fruits and water, and took care of it all night, before Qiu Chulin got rid of the fever.

In the early morning of the second day, when Qiu Chulin woke up, he still felt groggy, his left arm was swollen and numb, and he could hold his left shoulder for a sharp pain when he moved slightly.

He leaned against the cave wall and looked around, but he was the only one in the cave, and the lime was nowhere to be found. His wounds had been carefully bandaged, and he was still covered in her coat.

He walked out of the cave by holding the cave wall, she was building a fire under the tree not far away, with some wild fruits and a skinned beast at hand, and when she saw him come out of the cave, she said, "Childe is awake?" How does it feel? ”

"It's okay, it's just that my left shoulder hurts a lot." Qiu Chulin held his left shoulder and walked towards her, seeing that she was trying to drill wood to make fire like him, he raised the corners of his lips and teased, "You look good, but how long have you been taking this fire?" ”

Lime pursed the corners of her lips and pointed to the wild fruits picked on the side, "If I can't make a fire, I can only eat fruit today." ”

"The fruits you stuffed yesterday are very sour and unpalatable, I don't want to eat them anymore." Qiu Chulin smiled, he slowly sat down with his right hand protecting his left shoulder, and said softly, "Come, I'll teach you." ”

Under Qiu Chulin's guidance, the firewood in front of Lime finally lit a fire, she put the packed little beast on the fire, picked up the fruit on the side and handed it to Qiu Chulin, "There are a lot of fruit trees in front, unlike those yesterday, these fruits are very sweet." ”

"Okay, and I'll believe you again." Qiu Chulin said with a smile, his mouth was dry, and the wild fruit was indeed extremely sweet.

After eating this meal, the two set off on the road, Qiu Chulin was wounded, and there were no horses to walk, so the speed was much slower, and it took two days to get out of the bottom of the cliff of Muman Mountain.

As soon as the two of them got out of the bottom of the cliff, they saw a carriage hurrying towards the bottom of the cliff, Shen Jiangli was sitting in the horse, supporting the car door with both hands, and was looking in the direction of the bottom of the cliff.

"It's okay if you're okay, it's my ......" Shen Jiang frowned from his eyebrows, his eyes full of self-blame.

"Jiang Li, you don't have to blame yourself, I don't blame you for this." Qiu Chulin patted Shen Jiangli on the shoulder and asked, "What about Xiyang?" Did you find him? ”

"He's still alive, but he's been injured and he's been in a coma, and I've sent someone to take him back to Maiguan." Shen Jiang left the road, "Get in the car, I brought good wound medicine, and your injuries need to be rebandaged." ”

A few days later, the group finally arrived at Maicheng.

After arriving, Qiu Chulin didn't rest for half a moment, and went straight to Qiu Xiyang's room, Qiu Xiyang was still seriously injured and unconscious, Qiu Chulin looked at his pale and bloodless face, and his face was gloomy.

"Childe, thanks to Shen Gongzi's timely treatment, although the deputy general is in a coma, there is no major problem." Lime withdrew his hand to diagnose Qiu Xiyang's pulse, came to the table, and wrote down the prescription, "I have prescribed a few pairs of tonic medicines to nourish the spirits and nourish qi, and I ask Vice General Yuan to order people to serve the deputy general when he gets up every morning." ”

"Well, I remember." Yuan Cheng took the prescription and nodded.

"Yuan Cheng, those who are going to leave with him, according to the rules, take care of their relatives." Qiu Chulin got up and said, "Come to my study tomorrow to get the fold of recovery, and send someone to rush to Chu'an City." ”

"Yes, General." Yuan Cheng arched his hand.

"Ling'er, you can go back and rest too." Qiu Chulin looked at her much thinner cheeks, and said distressedly, "I've worked hard for you these days." ”

"Yes, Childe." Lime said, "I have already instructed someone to boil your medicine, and the son must take the medicine for a while." ”

"Well, let's go." Qiu Chulin nodded and left Qiu Xiyang's room with Lime.

After another ten days, Qiu Xiyang woke up and slowly recovered. A holy decree came from the eight hundred miles of Chu'an City, summoning Qiu Chulin back to Beijing, and the doctors of the Tai Hospital would treat him to show the emperor's grace.

This holy decree is really strange, Emperor Shuochu is seriously ill, and the government and the opposition are about to surge, and at this time, it doesn't make sense to summon Chu Lin back to Beijing at this time.

But since the holy decree has arrived, there is no room for delay, Qiu Chulin immediately packed his bags, and only took Lime and Qiu Xiyang to rush to Chu'an City, Shuochu Jingshi.

This time I went to Chu'an City, it was inevitable to see Yan Qiyang again, since it was inevitable, I would use my identity to make the father and son feel disgusted.

It was noon when they arrived at Chu'an City, and the three hungry people were stopped in front of the general's mansion by two children of a gentlemanly family, and these two people were smiling and cheap.

"You're finally back!" The man in the yellow shirt said, "We've been waiting at your door for days!" ”

"Yo Yo Yo, where did you find this beautiful lady who is like a flower and jade? I really envy me! The man in the white shirt approached the lime intently.

"Brother Liu, Brother Zijie, long time no see!" Qiu Chulin hugged his fists, and then he grabbed Lime's hand and pulled her to his side, "Brother Zijie, you and my brother haven't seen each other for a long time, and your problem still hasn't grown at all!" ”

"Brother Qiu, it's not right for you to say that!" Wei Zijie said dissatisfiedly, "My fair lady, good gentleman, I love beauty, what's wrong with this?" ”

"It's not wrong to love beauty, but it's good that Zijie doesn't love the wrong person." Qiu Chulin said, there was already a warning outside of his words.

Wei Zijie blushed angrily when he heard this, and was about to refute when he was interrupted by Liu Xiong.

"Brother Qiu, I must be hungry at this moment, Brother Zijie and I have already booked a banquet in Tianxianglou, today you and my three brothers will not get drunk and not return!" Liu Xiong saw that the atmosphere was not right, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to change the topic.

"I'm afraid it won't work today, Qiu has the emperor's order, and he must first enter the palace to restore the emperor's order before he can withdraw, why don't you ask Qiu to be the east another day and invite the two brothers to get together?" Qiu Chulin said.

"What Brother Qiu said is that the emperor's order does not dare to be mistaken, this is a matter of losing his head, Brother Qiu, please do it. Then the two of us are waiting for the invitation of the enemy brother in the mansion! Liu Xiong smiled, he arched his hand and pulled the angry Wei Zijie away.

These two people are the children of the family that Qiu Chulin met when he was studying in the library, and they have not seen each other for many years, and they really surprised Qiu Chulin when they came to the door today.

The housekeeper of the General's Mansion is named Man Fu, who is amiable, and Lime calls him Uncle Fu with Qiu Chulin.

Uncle Fu prepared a sumptuous lunch for them. After lunch, Qiu Chulin entered the palace to resume his life, and Lime took a veil and left the general's mansion. It's called hanging out, but it's actually to enter her stay in the secret pile of Shuochu, get news and report safety to her brother.

Since Lime left the house, she wandered aimlessly on the street, she bought some random things and carried them in her hand, looked around, and did not arouse any interest, until she came to a jewelry store called "Ho's Jewelry", Lime seemed to have some interest in entering the store.

There are many people in Chu'an City, no matter whether there is anyone with them, you must be careful.

The He ornament was a secret stake she left in Shuochu, where Lime inquired about the news of Chu'an City, and left a letter to her brother, and left here.

After leaving the He ornament, Lime went to a pharmacy again, bought some tonics, didn't stay on the street long, and went back to the General's Mansion.

As soon as Lime entered the mansion, he felt that the atmosphere was different, and everyone put away their smiling faces, and was cautious in their words and deeds, and Uncle Fu also had a serious face and did not smile.

Lime came to the kitchen to boil medicine, and before she could enter the door, she heard the whispers of the cooks.

"Why did the regent come to see the general in person, the general should come to the door."

"Who knows? Xu misses the general! ”

"No matter what the reason is, as long as the regent comes, the people in this mansion will not dare to come out."

"Don't say it, you will lose if you say too much, don't say the wrong thing and lose your life!"

I don't know who said this, and several cooks immediately nodded yes, and they all shut up and went to work separately.

Lime boiled the tonic and came to Qiu Chulin's study, instead of being passively beaten by surprise, it was better to take the initiative to show up and take the initiative in his own hands.

Yan Qiyang sat in front of the bookcase, his eyes swept over Qiu Chulin like a torch, and he saw the changes in his expression, "The second prince replied, I met a robber on the way back, and you fell off the cliff in order to escort him, and he sent people to search for it to no avail, so he had to return to Beijing alone." But so? ”

"Back to his father-in-law, the child was negligent, fell for his trick, was besieged by heavy soldiers on the top of Muman Mountain, was seriously injured, and had no choice but to jump off the cliff to save his life." Qiu Chulin said, kneeling down on one knee and pleading guilty, "The child failed to kill the second prince, and he failed to live up to his father-in-law's expectations, please punish his father-in-law!" ”

There was no fluctuation in Yan Qiyang's eyes, he was silent for a long time, and said in a deep voice, "That's it, get up, you have been recuperating from your injuries for a few days, and if you miss again next time, this king will never spare it!" ”

"Yes, thank you, father." Qiu Chulin got up and thanked him.
