Chapter 69: A Woman Disguises as a Man
Su Yunruo trotted all the way to the gate of the palace like a rabbit, Xie Feiqing was opening the curtain to look at her, and couldn't help but squint her eyes when she saw her dress.
Her appearance is too outstanding, even if a men's dress slightly hides a little bit of her daughter's delicateness, but it adds a little bit of spaciousness and elegance like a moon breeze, wouldn't it be more eye-catching to take her out on the street like this?
He faintly regretted it, he shouldn't let her mess around!
Seeing that he didn't know what he was thinking, Su Yunruo stretched out his little hand and shook it in front of his eyes: "Let's go?" ”
He replied sullenly, stretched out his flesh and blood hand to support her into the carriage, put down the curtain and gently knocked on the wall of the carriage, Zhu Qing pulled the reins, raised the whip in his hand and patted it gently, and the horse raised its hooves and walked to the other side of the long street.
Along the way, Su Yunruo always felt that Xie Feiqing's gaze fell on her from time to time, and every time she turned her head, he twisted the jade bracelet in his hand casually, and after a few times, she finally couldn't hold it back.
"When did the prince learn to look at people secretly like this? Is there anything dirty on my face? ”
He pursed his lips and spit out two words like gold: "...... No. ”
"Then what does the prince see me doing?"
"I didn't see it."
She choked, as if talking to herself, but her eyes were fixed on his side face: "Bian Ji learns really fast, yesterday I taught him to mix a poison, he learned a good look, although the toxicity is not strong, but if you accidentally drink it, you can't help it...... Be flattering! But Bian Ji is a child after all, jumping up and down often in and out of the prince's study, the prince has to keep an eye on his diet, in case he accidentally sprinkles some poison or something, it will be ugly. ”
The corners of Xie Feiqing's mouth twitched slightly, and a dark light slipped through the narrow Danfeng eyes: "Are you threatening this king?" ”
She smiled brightly: "It's just small talk, so why did the prince stare at me just now?" ”
He turned his face awkwardly: "It's better for you to go out less in the future." ”
Su Yunruo blinked suspiciously, and was about to ask, but he heard a noisy voice faintly in the distance, and Zhu Qing said in a low voice: "Master, the road ahead is blocked by the disaster victims, and you can't pass, I'm afraid you and your wife will deign to come down." ”
Xie Feiqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, lifted the curtain and helped Su Yunruo get out of the carriage together.
As far as the eye can see, the streets are full of victims, all of them are skinny, yellow-skinned, and thin, some are lying on the side of the street with anger, some are holding on to the corpses and crying loudly, and dozens of righteous indignant people are confronting the officials.
"We don't dare to complain about natural disasters, but it's not Princess Chu's pastime! She pretended to be merciful and asked people to give us medicine, but she poisoned us behind her back, and we will not give up if we don't give us an explanation today! ”
"That's right! Although our lives are like mustard, we have not violated the king's law, so why should we be poisoned by her? ”
"I don't think the prince of Chu is a good thing! Who knows if there is poison in his porridge? Even if we starve to death, we can't be poisoned for no reason! ”
The officials drew their knives and threatened a few words, but they didn't dare to really use knives to cut people, and the scene was chaotic for a while.
Su Yunruo frowned slightly, and asked in a low voice, "Zhuqing, where are those corpses?" ”
"Some of them were retracted by Jing Zhao Yin's mansion to the ruined temple next to them, and some family members refused to let people take their bodies away, just like that woman kept guarding."
She looked in the direction of Zhuqing's finger, and saw a ragged woman lying on the corpse and crying, tears about to drain.
She raised her feet and walked in front of the woman, and Xie Feiqing hurriedly followed with Zhuqing.
She leaned down and handed a handkerchief to the woman: "Wipe your tears, the dead are gone, and the living should mourn." ”
The woman raised her eyes in a daze, looked at the silk handkerchief in her hand and shook her head timidly: "The women are lowly and dare not ask for the son's things, thank you for the kindness of the son." ”
"It's just a handkerchief, you keep it, even if you don't have to get it from the pawnshop, you can exchange it for a few taels of silver."
The woman hesitated for a long time, then carefully took the silk handkerchief, folded it and put it in her arms, wiped a handful of tears and kowtowed: "Thank you, thank you, thank you, Bodhisattva bless, you will definitely have a good reward!" ”
Su Yunruo couldn't help but feel sour when she saw her like this, and hurriedly held her arm: "Hurry up, you don't dare to bear such a heavy salute with your hands." Dare to ask who you are guarding ......"
"It's my husband, he contracted the wind and cold, so he took a few pills from the medicine given by Princess Chu, who knew that the lady who couldn't eat a cup of tea would be gone! I knew it earlier...... Even if I let him die of illness, I will never let him take that inexplicable medicine! is the same woman, how can there be such a femme fatale woman in the world? ”
As she spoke, the woman couldn't stop shedding tears, Xie Feiqing secretly looked at Su Yunruo's expression, and was slightly surprised to see that there was not the slightest wave on her face.
"I'm a master of medicine, can you show me?"
"Alas, people are dead, what else is there to see? But since Childe wants to see it...... Then check it out. ”
Su Yunruo lifted his robe and squatted on the ground, familiarly rolled up the eyelids of the corpse, and opened his chin to look at the color of the tongue coating, and had a plan in his heart.
She stood up quietly and patted Xie Feiqing's shoulder with confidence: "Brother Xie, the foolish brother came out in a hurry today, and he didn't bring any silver, can you lend me a few taels?" ”
Xie Feiqing glanced at her funny, and motioned to Zhuqing to hand her the purse, she took the purse, took out a few silver ingots and stuffed them into the woman's hand: "The weather is hot now, if the corpse is not properly disposed of, it is most likely to cause the plague, not to mention that since the person is gone, it is always better to let him be buried in the ground." Keep the money and buy a coffin for your eldest brother to bury. ”
"This ...... How can this be collected? The woman and the son are not related to each other, and they dare not accept the great favor of the son! ”
The movement on their side has attracted the attention of many victims, Xie Feiqing and Su Yunrong's bearing and clothing are already incompatible with everything around them, and seeing that Su Yunruo is very generous, they can't help but secretly look over.
At this time, a voice came out of nowhere in the crowd: "That kid in a crow-blue boy shirt is Princess Chu!" Standing next to her was the prince of Chu! Let's rush! If you don't give us an explanation today, don't think about leaving! ”
"That's it! Horizontal and vertical is a death, it is better to die to understand! ”
Everyone was stunned for a few seconds, and immediately rushed towards them with great momentum.
The legs of the officials are going to be frightened, if something happens to the prince and the princess of Chu under their noses, no one's head can be saved.
The official at the head gritted his teeth and roared sharply: "Who of you people dares to be presumptuous? ”
