Chapter 157: Xianyu Prisoners of War (1)

"The fourth brother wanted the position of the prince and wanted to go crazy, so he sent a woman by my side, and sent two more warriors to follow the eldest brother to Pingyi. There are also people around the sixth brother and his father. Since he has painstakingly arranged so much, then he will bear this sin. ”

"You already know who he has arranged?" I remembered that when Zhao Jiting first returned to Xinjiang, he sent Fang Di and a good horse, racking his brains to climb to the position of the prince. Unexpectedly, his painstaking design and arrangement eventually turned into his own noose.

"Siwei Siwei has already gone to Pingyi, and in the next few days, those people arranged by the fourth brother will be arrested one by one. He arranged someone else and didn't say it, he really shouldn't have planted eyeliner next to his father, it would kill him. ”

I looked at the cold smile on the corner of Wuxian's mouth, and sighed in my heart, Zhao Jiting is the son-in-law of his wife, Zhao Wuxian is a little slave who cuts grass and feeds horses, how can a person standing on the clouds see an ant on the ground? He Zhao Jiting thought that Zhao Wuxian was just a fledgling that had just come out of the eggshell, and because of the matter of Jinyang City, he was appreciated by Zhao Ying. But how could he have imagined that this concubine he despised had already secretly grown into a devouring tiger, and as long as he showed the slightest flaw, he would be swallowed by it with blood and bones. Even today, Zhao Jiting may not know that it was Wuxian who did something behind his back, this is the terrible thing about the man in front of me.

I was silent for a long time, and raised my face with the palm of my shirtless hand: "Ah Shi, I don't want to lie to you, but I don't want you to be afraid of me." I, Zhao Wuxian, am not a good person, but I want to be a good person in your heart. ”

Be a good person in my heart?

He killed Zhao Mengli and blamed Zhao Jiting, both of whom were his closest half-brothers, and he was a heinous sinner in both Li and Law. But will I complain that he is not a "good person"? No, even if I know this, in my heart, he is still the "Zhang Meng'er" who understands me and pities me, protects me and loves me, is this a woman's selfishness?

"Why don't you speak?" Wuxian looked at me, his brows furrowed more and more, and when he talked about those bloody conspiracies, he looked indifferent, but now his face was full of anxiety.

"Hongyun'er, I'm sorry, I want to ...... I may ......" I looked him in the eye without blinking, put my hands gently on his chest, and just as he was holding his breath and listening to me intently, I ripped off his shirt. ** had a thick white silk wrapped around his chest, and there was a bowl-sized red blood stain on his left shoulder less than three inches from his chest. I stroked the bright red mark, and the warm touch of my fingertips made my nose sour: "Do you want me to know how well you can endure?" You tell me you killed your own brother, but can't you tell me you're seriously injured? ”

"Hey, I can't hide it from you after all." Wuxian smiled bitterly and pulled up his clothes, "I don't want you to worry so I don't want to tell you, the wound is not deep, the blood is a little more, and it will be fine in two days." ”

"The wound is not deep? Do you still want me to take it apart?! I looked at his face, angry and annoyed.

"Okay, okay, I'll serve you." He grabbed my hand and said helplessly, "Father Qing is not such an easy person to fool, since I have taken this step, I have to go more seriously and riskily." The wound is a bit deep, but it has really been medicated, and it will be fine in a few days. By the way, you just said that you sent medicine to your brother, and he is better today? ”

"Not so good. After the prince learned of Zhao Mengli's death, he fainted. ”

"And now? Awake? Shirtless straightened his shirt in a mess, "I'll go see him!" ”

"Don't go!" I grabbed his hand, "Hongyun'er, I don't want you to lie to him, and I don't want him to know that you killed Zhao Mengli, do you understand what I mean?" ”

Wuxian was stunned when he heard my words, in the matter of Zhao Mengli, whether he told the truth or not, it was a bigger blow to Beru.

"Hongyun'er, since Mingyi left, the prince's health has not been better. Now that he has been stimulated so much, I am afraid that he will not be able to afford to get sick. I can't leave with you tomorrow, I want to stay here for half a month longer, and I'll meet you in Linzi City later? ”

Wuxian sighed and gently took me into his arms: "This was my fault, but now I want you to atone for my sins." I will take care of the affairs of Qi Kingdom, so you can stay and take care of your brother with peace of mind. Don't worry about me, take care of yourself, and if you're tired, stay here and wait for me to come back. ”

"Half a month later, I will definitely go to Linzi to find you. If you have a wound, go in a carriage, and don't ride a horse. ”

"Hmm."

"There are many fish in Qidi, but you have injuries on your body, so you have to avoid it."

"Hmm."

"Also, Qi Xiang Chen Heng is not an easy person to deal with, what you want to kill is the people of the Fan clan and the Zhongxing clan, don't involve too much between him and the right minister."

"Well, I know it all." Wuxian rested his chin lightly on my shoulder and murmured, "Woman, Linzi City has the largest teaching workshop in the world, the most beautiful Maiko, before the men of the Jin Kingdom go to Qi Kingdom, the wife always has to tell me, don't fall in love with the teaching girl, don't get drunk on Yongmen Street." You've told so much, why did you forget this one? ”

I smiled and hugged his waist tightly, and said softly: "When you arrive in Linzi City, you should go to Yongmen Street first." There are the most powerful people of the Qi State who come and go, and the most news. ”

"Hey, this is my little woman!" The man in front of him sighed, his arms tightened tighter.

I didn't go to see him off the next day when I left without a shirt, and I thought that no matter how young I was, I would still be like this, hating to say goodbye, and hating to watch people go farther and farther away.

Beruw had been ill since that day, and had been awake a few days earlier, but the more he went on, the more drowsy he became. On the seventh day, he was awake almost only when he ate and drank medicine, and the rest of the time he lay down on the couch and fell asleep deeply.

In the past seven days, Xun Ji has only been here twice, and each time she only sat by Bolu's side for a while before leaving. Since Bolu asked Zhao Ying to resign as the son, she seems to have changed as a different person, and her obsession with Bolu in the past and her precautions against the concubines in the palace seem to have disappeared. Her husband suddenly became an insignificant person, and this recognition made me sigh a little bit about the coldness of the relationship between husband and wife.

On the other hand, Ran Nu couldn't help but torture and confessed Zhao Jiting's plan to assassinate Wuxian, and the four guards also found that one of Zhao Mengli's entourage had been rewarded by Zhao Jiting, and finally dug out Zhao Jiting's eyeliner buried next to Zhao Ying.

Things were as Wuxian had predicted, and Zhao Ying was furious at Zhao Jiting's eyeliner next to him. Originally, Zhao Jiting had been sent to a small city in the west for the crime of assassination, but later Zhao Ying sent someone to send a dagger overnight.

Zhao Jiting, who pretends to be smart, has not yet reached the small city where he is going to imprison him for the rest of his life, so he cut himself on the road.

After Zhao Jiting's death, Zhao Ying suffered from a cold, Shi Molai made a witch blessing in the mansion, and I was also called to cook a few pairs of soothing medicinal soup. Zhao Ying is over 60 years old this year, and externally, he has to send troops to prepare for the war with the country; Internally, the court has to fight with Zhiyao every day to balance the relationship between the families. Now, the family has lost two sons in a row, and no matter how tough the body is, there are times when they can't bear it.

But just a few days later, there was another disaster in Jiuyuan, not far from Xinjiang City, saying that the seedlings that had just been drawn this spring had all died overnight. For a while, there was a lot of discussion in Xinjiang. In the streets and alleys, in the liquor shops and workshops, everyone from the people to the scholars talked about it. Everyone believed that this disaster was a warning from heaven that the monarch and the four secretaries were dissatisfied with the country.

The Marquis of Jin has been haunted by nightmares since the beginning of the year, and he will summon Shi Mo into the palace every once in a while to remove misfortune. After the incident of Jiuyuan happened at this time, he hurriedly summoned Zhao Ying, Zhi Yao, and Shi Mo into the palace to discuss countermeasures.

There was chaos from top to bottom in Xinjiang.

On this day, I entrusted Beru to the Witch Doctor Bridge, and I carried the bamboo basket to collect medicine outside the city, and when I came back, I met an unexpected person at the gate of the Zhao Mansion.

"Doctor Post, why are you here? Is the ditch in Jinyang City dug? The house was also built? Where's my little white? "I asked the old man in blue clothes.

"The ditch hasn't been dug yet, the house hasn't been built, and your Xiaobai is now in the garden of the Zhao Mansion." The old man was still full of sourness when he talked about Xiaobai.

"Then why did you get back? This is a remiss of duty. I grinned.

"There is someone else who is derelict in his duties, you had better speak to the prime minister and remove him from his official position as soon as possible."

I was wondering who the old man was talking about when I heard the sound of a carriage moving behind me. Yin Duo, dressed in white and wearing a green scarf, was driving a black horse carriage towards us.

"Ah?" Yin Duo pulled the reins and stopped the carriage with a shout.

"Cheng Yin, why are you here too? Did something happen to Jinyang? ”

"Nothing happened to Jinyang." Yin Duo jumped out of the carriage with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing?" ”

"Well, I'm fine. When did you come to Xinjiang? What to do? ”

"I arrived yesterday, and I want to ask the prime minister for some people. The old man was afraid that he would kill me in anger, so he came with him. It's a pity that the prime minister is not here today. ”

I haven't seen him for a long time, Yin Duo's boyish face has tanned a lot, and the whole person looks a little more masculine.

"Who do you want to ask the prime minister? Why do you say that you want to lose your life at every turn? ”

"That's a long story...... Yin Duo laughed dryly twice after speaking, and it seemed that there was something difficult.

"Don't stand at the gate if it's long. Go into the house and say, "Leave the carriage to the old man." The postmaster snatched the whip from Yin Duo's hand, jumped into the car with a slight bow at me.

"Where is the postman going in such a hurry?" I asked Yin Duo.

"The old man's granddaughter is pregnant, and the old man is anxious to go and see it!" Yin Duo glanced at the post man in the car and said slowly.

"Is it the noble girl who married the grandson of Doctor Candle?"

"Well, that noble lady is the treasure of the old man's heart. said that he didn't want to see me die, but in fact, he wanted to find an excuse to come back to visit his granddaughter. ”

Mi Cao was pregnant, and the daughter of the post family was also pregnant, but she didn't expect Candle Chu to have two children at once.

I was sighing in my heart, and Youliang had already turned his head at the gate of the mansion in a standing carriage: "Wizard, help me persuade this kid." When the Zhao clan was crusading against Xianyu Kingdom, the old man was the imperial hand of the prime minister, and those slaves were all murderous ghosts on the battlefield, and they couldn't bring them into Jinyang City no matter what! ”

"Old man post! You...... I haven't even said that yet...... Hey, you'd better hurry up! Yin Duo slapped the horse's ass fiercely in a hurry.

"When the old man comes back from the Candle Mansion, I will knock your wooden head again!" After speaking, the post liang drove the car away.

"A slave in the Xianyu Kingdom? Who do you want to ask the prime minister? ”

"Let's go into the house."
