Chapter Sixty-Nine: Leaking Secrets in the Dream
"My lord, do you think I'm that kind of person?" Cui Li was annoyed, he looked down on people too much, right? And even if he wanted to leave, he wouldn't use this trick, and besides, would he be able to escape? Who doesn't know that he Hetai has recruited a lot of die-hard people in the rivers and lakes in the past few years. Don't chase yourself to the ends of the earth?
After many years of friendship, Hetai also believes in him, but it is only related to the issue of medicine, and he can't help but have some doubts. Seeing him say this, he couldn't say anything more, so he took out a piece of waist card from his bosom and handed it to him, and said, "Go and return quickly." β
"Wait! Let the incense skirt inform Feng Xing, Feng Zhi to come to see me tonight. Hetai spit out again, and he didn't feel a few wisps of murderous aura in his eyes.
"Brother He, don't be impulsive, this is the palace?" Cui Li seemed to know what he was going to do, Feng Xing and Feng Che were the most secretive of Hetai's staff, and they only did some killer acts.
"Let you go!" Tsurutei paused, and said solemnly, "You just need to remember that Fluttershy is very important to me!" After that, he ignored him and sat down on his own stool in front of Fluttershy's bed.
Cui Li understood the meaning of his words, if he really wanted to let go and wanted to escape, he would completely provoke him, but fortunately, he didn't plan to escape, and he didn't persuade him at the moment, and he knew that persuasion was useless.
It is really as Cui Li said, even if she is in a coma, the fish and butterflies seem to be uncomfortable and tight, I don't know whether she is entangled by nightmares or hallucinations into dreams, her little face is sweating again, frowning, the broken hair on her forehead has been stuck to her face with sweat, and her lips are slightly open, like a fish that is deprived of oxygen and is breathing desperately.
Seeing that she was really going to be tortured to death by this damn poison, Hetai was inexplicably distressed, and ordered the maid to bring warm water and a cotton handkerchief, moistened the water and wiped her sweat, and after wiping it, he put his hand on her forehead and probed, but it was not burning, but it was just a cold sweat.
Nightmares, hallucinations, and memories followed, Yu Die'er felt as uncomfortable as if her head was about to explode, and suddenly it seemed like a slightly cool hand touched her forehead, and Yu Die'er's mind instantly cleared up, but she couldn't open her eyes, so she could only sink into a dream.
Hetai sat for a few hours, his eyes looked at it for a moment, as if he was in a god, the face in front of him was so similar to the person he was looking for, it was a beautiful face, the eyes were clear, like black jade, it seemed to be full of the world's kindness and brightness, but there were slight differences, there was always a trace of worry in the eyes of the fish butterfly, which appeared from time to time, and the whole person felt very fearless, seeing through everything, and the sweetheart he was looking for, although he was also brave and kind, but many times he had timidity and cowardice, so he needed to be cared forγ
Perhaps it is precisely because of this gap that I can't overlap the two, always thinking that that one is that, this is this, it's just that the appearance is similar.
"Ren Sanshui, don't go into the mountains to hunt in the future, you can find some other livelihood, it's too dangerous. The sleeping Yu Die's slightly open lips actually began to speak, as if in a dream.
These few dream words made Hetai stand up in shock, leaned over and said, "What did you say?" His eyes instantly brightened, "Ren Sanshui?" Isn't this a name he made up for himself?
"If you still insist on this, I will leave you alone, and I will see if you will meet someone as kind as me to save you. β
"You are just too stubborn, and too indifferent, why don't you respond to me when I talk to you so much, and your face has an expression that has not changed for thousands of years, so boring!"
"Sanshui, why did your father and mother give you this name, does it have any special meaning?"
"Are you leaving? Anyway, your injuries are almost healed, it's time to go, otherwise your father and mother will be worried and anxious, it's okay if you go, I will always send you food, although my family lives in the mountains, but it is far away from this grass hut, my father has interrogated me for the past few days, saying how I went out mysteriously. β
Yu Die'er was still talking to herself in her dreams, and her brain seemed to be stuck in some memory.
But these dream words were like a sea of mountains, almost knocking Hetai down, he panicked, and whispered in shock: "So you...... You really ......" His lips trembled, he couldn't believe it, he didn't dare to listen, he didn't dare to stay any longer, he took a few steps back and turned around in a panic and walked out of the dormitory in a panic, and the hem of his robe fluttered with his eager steps.
I can't imagine that the person who has been looking for no result is already close at hand, why is he so stupid? so stupid? Or maybe Hetai didn't dare to think about it at all, after all, her first appearance in the palace was at his banquet, and she was with the prince, and Hetai once thought that Yu Die'er was the prince's concubine.
I don't dare to think that Yu Die'er is the person I am looking for, is it because I am afraid? I am afraid that my sweetheart will fall in love with another man, so I blindly escape, I dare not think, I dare not ask, and I stubbornly think that it is never!
Just because of some subtle differences? As we get older, as we see more things in the world, who can stay the same? Who can always be the same? Isn't it normal to have some differences?
I think I was a young man, wasn't I just a weak prince who didn't have the love of my mother, although I was not valued by my father, although I closed my heart and became an indifferent lonely person, but I was still simple, and after too many things and too many truths, I was now not a scheming, old-fashioned and spicy, and I could determine life and death with an understatement, and I could push people into the abyss of no recovery with a wave of my hand?
Although she only said a few words of dreams, but it was only two people who knew it, and Hetai confirmed that the fish and butterfly in front of her was the woman she was looking for, who had saved her, and who she had in mind. But why didn't she recognize herself? She never seemed to show a trace in front of herself, as if she had never known each other, could it be that she had changed too much? She couldn't recognize herself? Or did she never think that the person she had saved would be the prince?
Thinking of this, I really deserve it! Who let her deceive her in order to conceal her identity at that time, saying that her name was Ren Sanshui, because her family was poor and went into the mountains to hunt and was bitten by wild beasts and other lies, I don't know if she found out that she was lying, and then got angry, so she didn't want to tell her name, and she didn't even bother to make up one. But I don't seem to have asked?
Or did she not recognize herself because she didn't want the prince to misunderstand that the two had something to do with each other? She liked the prince, so she was afraid that he would misunderstand? This reason was the most unacceptable to Hetai.
And what made him even more panicked was that Die'er was now poisoned by a strange poison, but he couldn't do anything about it, if she really died of poison, what was the meaning of the rest of his life? He suddenly avoided thinking, it was better not to know, at least there was a rush, even if he looked for a lifetime, it was always a hope, it might be better than despair.
No, she must not be allowed to have something, there is a glimmer of hope and she can't give up, even if she goes to the tribe of the Red Merchant Country to find it, after so many years, maybe there is an antidote in that tribe?
Just thinking about it, the little eunuch led Peony in, and Peony said timidly: "Lord, girl, she ......."
"Die'er, she is a little tired after eating, and she is resting. Hetai remembered Yu Die'er's instructions not to talk about her poisoning, so he replied. But the poison is so frequent, how can this be hidden.
He suddenly thought that the emperor hadn't explained yet, and he wanted to send the servants to give a reply, but he was afraid that the minions would not be able to speak and annoy the emperor, and it would be bad to have a misunderstanding with Die'er, so he got up and went to the emperor in person, and Peony and Qiu Ying also went together as witnesses, but Hetai only said to the emperor that Yu Die'er was sick, but did not say that he was poisoned. After coming back, the dining room made some more food for the two Peony to take back and distribute it to the minions in the Ximian Palace to use together, Die'er is already like this, and she will take care of the minions for her.
Then Hetai sat in the dormitory again, looking at the person on the couch with soft eyes, and kept thinking in his heart that when Yu Die'er woke up, should he ask her, or still pretend not to know?
Cui Li didn't break his promise, he turned back after lunch, took a jujube red box, came in and saw Hetai still sitting there, frowned, and said, "Haven't woken up yet?"
Hetai shook his head and didn't say anything.
Cui Li couldn't bear to see his depressed appearance, so he changed the topic: "By the way, Brother He, you said that you have something to entrust me, what is the matter?" Originally, Hetai said that he had something to entrust, so he took the opportunity to let him take it to this palace to see and understand, who knew that he would encounter this as soon as he came, and he didn't know what he wanted to entrust himself?
Hetai glanced at him and said, "Originally, I wanted to ask you to find the pavilion master of Feixian Pavilion and ask him to help me find someone, but now I don't have to." β
"Who are you looking for?" Cui Li said curiously.
"Not anymore. Hetai said lightly.
"Why?" Cui was puzzled, he was going to look for it in the morning, but he wouldn't be looking for it in the next few hours, and the change was too fast, right?
Crane Tai was speechless, and after a while, he took out a scroll from his sleeve and handed it to her. Cui Li opened it and saw that it was a portrait, a girl with a pink face and peach cheeks and a bright smile on the paper.
"Why is it so familiar?" Cui Li muttered to himself. looked at it and suddenly realized: "This ...... Isn't that what you call Fluttershy?"
"Brother He, this person is in the palace, are you still looking for her, haven't you seen her in the palace?" Cui Li was curious.
"Yes, but I didn't expect her to be. Hetai smiled wryly.
"I didn't expect it? Doesn't it look so similar? And you don't know the name of the person you're looking for?" Cui Li shouted again and again, it was too strange.
Hetai told him about the beginning and end of his acquaintance with Yu Die'er and the things that he asked people to look for later.
"Oh, so that's the case, then it's your fault, in order to prevent others, the names are all made up, and I don't blame others for not telling you your name, maybe she recognized you and deliberately pretended not to know, just to make you anxious and take revenge on you. After listening to this, Cui Li expressed his opinion.
"Really, did you say she recognized me? did you deliberately pretend she didn't know?" asked Hatsu-tae. If that's the case, I'll be able to accept it.
"I think it should be like this, no matter how big the change is, you will recognize it, unless you don't want to recognize it!" I didn't want to continue the conversation.
"Is this the medicine you said you were talking about?" asked Hetai as he saw a box in his hand.
"Yes, that's it. Cui Li opened the box, and Hetai saw that it was a small transparent gourd-like bottle containing small brown-red balls, and prayed in his heart that the balls would be effective.
"Do you say that there is really no cure for this poison? Could it be that someone from the Red Merchants Association has already developed an antidote?" asked Hetai expectantly.
"A few years ago, I also sent someone to investigate, and it was said that there was no, but now I don't know, what's the matter? You still plan to go to the Red Merchant Country?" Cui Li was taken aback.
"If you need to, you can. Hetai said firmly.
"You're crazy, that's an enemy country, you've been eyeing me Qiu Chi since the past few dynasties, and you've come back repeatedly, this time you've just been repulsed, aren't you going to the tiger's mouth?" Cui Li couldn't believe that Hetai was so reckless. Suddenly he asked, "Who did you ask to find her?"
Hetai frowned: "What do you mean?"
"I'm afraid this is a conspiracy!" Cui Li said, "Will anyone know your relationship with her and your thoughts about her, and take advantage of her importance to you to poison her, and lure you into the Red Merchant Kingdom to seek medicine?"
