Chapter 213: Goodbye Xin'er

"She's like this, what else can I do? Kill her? ”

Si Qian stood up, glanced at Caixia with disdain, and then went to the basin to wring a towel to wipe Murong Jing's face, and didn't look at Caixia's dissatisfied eyes.

It was already the dead of night, and there was still a faint candle flame in the imperial study, Lan Hongzhen was buried in a pile of folds, and the pen in his hand was moving quickly on the folds like a swimming dragon, but if you look closely, his hands are obviously a little trembling.

"Little Dengzi!"

He called without raising his head.

"Your Majesty, Gonggong Deng went out of the palace to run errands and hasn't come back yet."

The shrill voice of a small eunuch rang out.

Lan Hongzhen just sounded, he sent Gonggong Deng out, and he hasn't come back yet. He looked up tiredly from the mountain of twists and turns, put the pen on the pen stand beside him, reached out and rubbed his temples, only to feel dizzy and weak.

"Go, get me something to eat. Porridge and side dishes are sufficient. ”

"Yes."

The little eunuch respectfully retreated.

"Your Majesty, the queen asks to see you." Outside the door, there was the voice of a eunuch on duty.

Lan Hongzhen was stunned for a moment, "Please come in." ”

The door of the palace was opened, and Murong Qiuyue appeared in the hall in a red palace dress.

"Put your things down, you can retreat first, this palace is here to accompany the emperor." Murong Qiuyue said to the palace maids and eunuchs behind him.

The palace maids retreated as they said, leaving only Murong Qiuyue alone and walking towards Lan Hongzhen with a smile.

"Why is the queen here?"

Lan Hongzhen lowered his head again and continued to write.

"Your Majesty, it's time for you to drink medicine."

Murong Qiuyue's voice was gentle and beautiful, and she walked towards Lan Hongzhen with her steps, her long skirt drawing a beautiful arc on the shiny marble floor.

The moment Lan Hongzhen raised his eyes, his vision was a little blurry, and a drop of black ink dripped from the tip of the pen in his hand, and a black ball was printed on the fold.

"Yue'er?" He called softly.

"Your Majesty, the medicine is here, it's time for you to drink it."

The queen had already walked to Lan Hongzhen's side, half-squatted down, picked up the medicine bowl that the palace maid had put down just now, gently handed it to Lan Hongzhen's mouth, and repeated, "Your Majesty, come, drink the medicine." ”

"Yue'er? Is that you? ”

Lan Hongzhen's eyes were misty, and he kept calling.

"Come, Yue'er has fed you medicine, Your Majesty."

Murong Qiuyue smiled sweetly, as if the years had failed to leave a mark on her face, her skin was fair and delicate, glowing with a girlish pink, and in Lan Hongzhen's eyes, it was like returning to the moment when she first saw her outside the city.

"Yue'er ......"

The pen in Lan Hongzhen's hand fell on the table, staining the folds on the table, but he ignored it completely, and only looked at the beautiful woman in front of him in a daze, with slightly raised eyebrows, smart eyes, and smiling red lips, she was still his Yue'er.

"Your Majesty, come, Yue'er feeds you."

In this way, Murong Qiuyue pinched the corners of Lan Hongzhen's mouth as if she was coaxing a child of a few years old, and a bowl of dark and thick decoction with a strange smell entered Lan Hongzhen's mouth.

A drop of black liquid ran down the corner of his mouth.

Murong Qiuyue raised her sleeve embroidered with peonies with golden silk thread without disgust, and gently wiped the medicinal liquid from the corners of Lan Hongzhen's mouth.

"Is it good?"

Murong Qiuyue asked softly.

"It's delicious." The man in his forties nodded obediently like a child.

"Then let's drink again tomorrow?"

"Okay."

"Then Yue'er helped the emperor to go in and rest, right?"

"Okay."

It's still too docile to be docile.

A strange smile appeared on the queen's face, and she picked up Lan Hongzhen and walked towards the inner room behind the screen.

Half an hour later, Murong Qiuyue walked out of the hall, with a satisfied smile on her face, and the palace maids and eunuchs who were guarding outside the imperial study respectfully followed behind her, and left Yuguan.

"Huh? What happened to the queen mother? ”

The second prince, Lan Yue, walked over from the other side of the imperial study, and found the back of Murong Qiuyue leaving at the corner, he reflexively wanted to stop her, but thinking that the hour was not early, he quickly stopped talking.

"Father! Father? ”

Blue Moon shouted loudly outside the Imperial Study.

A little eunuch walked over from behind and bowed, "I've seen His Royal Highness the Second Prince, it's really a misfortune that His Royal Highness came down, the emperor just rested, and ordered, no one saw him." ”

"Nobody?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

The little eunuch lowered his head, very serious and determined, and under the dim light, Lan Yue did not see his face clearly.

"Alright then, I'll come back tomorrow."

Lan Yue was a little disappointed, and glanced into the crack in the door, but she couldn't see anything, and when she saw that the queen had just left from here, she must have really rested, so she had to leave in a huff.

**********

Yun Die originally sat in a carriage and asked all the way in the direction of Shenfeng Mountain. It's just that what makes her feel strange is that she asked many passers-by but no one could tell her exactly where Kamikaze Mountain was.

Some people say that it is in the south of the Southern Dynasty.

Some people say that it is on the west side of the eastern country.

What's more, there is no place at all, Shenfeng Mountain is just made up by people.

Under the scorching sun, the official road was sparsely populated, and occasionally one or two merchants traveled between the imperial capital and neighboring cities, and everyone looked worried, as if everyone had done a loss-making business, and frowned.

The driver of the car was a coachman that Yun Die was looking for, about twenty years old, tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, dark skin, bronzed arms, and muscles exposed outside the short coat looked so strong. Hundred Flowers Literature

He called himself Yubu and said that his peers called him You Laoer.

Along the way, as long as Yundie didn't ask him anything, he generally wouldn't speak, so he drove silently and never said a word.

Yun Die lifted the curtain and looked at Yubu's sweat-soaked back, a simple coarse cloth white short coat, a strip of cloth tied around his waist, a half-wet sweat towel around his neck, and a vest with two distinct colors.

The moment Yubu raised his hand to wipe his sweat, Yun Die vaguely saw a black birthmark on his wrist.

"Miss, which direction are we heading now?"

Red Sleeves asked in a daze, she was shaken a little dizzy in the rickety carriage, she vaguely remembered that Yun Die was motion sickness before, and now that the master is not dizzy, she is a little dizzy.

"I don't know."

Yun Die replied without blinking.

Lu Yao had already fallen asleep against the wall of the carriage, and at this moment, she was disturbed by them, but she rubbed her eyes and woke up, and opened the window to look, "Isn't this the way to Youdu?" ”

She turned her head and asked Yun Die, who was still staring at the back of the coachman,

"Miss, are we going to the hidden capital?"

"Hmm."

Yundie replied nonchalantly.

"Miss, have you ever been to Youdu before?" In order to avoid motion sickness, Red Sleeves worked hard to find a topic to chat.

"I've been."

Their master still looks careless.

"When?"

"Half a year ago."

"Huh?"

Red Sleeves was very puzzled, half a year ago, they weren't the master's maids, right?

"Eh," Lu Yao gently bumped Red Sleeves with her elbow and winked at her, and Red Sleeves realized that something was wrong with Yun Die's appearance, and she looked preoccupied.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Red Sleeves sat down beside Yun Die and asked in a curious whisper.

Hearing Red Sleeves' words, Yun Die finally withdrew her gaze, glanced at her and continued to look out of the curtain, and lowered her voice, "Have you noticed that there are obviously more people entering the city than going out of the city?" ”

"Uh...."

"Miss, there are fewer people out of the city than there are people in the city.... Any questions? ”

Red Sleeves didn't understand what Yun Die meant at all, in fact, even Lu Yao didn't understand, and they were confused just now, sleeping and sleeping, who had the leisure to observe the number of people going out of the city and entering the city?

"It's fine, but I always feel like something is wrong."

Yun Die replied, and then said to herself, "Is my sixth sense wrong?" ”

"Miss, we are still concerned that we haven't found Miss Ye after the hidden capital, so let's do this."

Redsleeves said with some concern.

She knew that Ye Luoli and Yun Die had a good relationship, but she didn't understand that the second lady of the dignified Night Sword Villa was gone, and her master thought that the three of them could find her?

"It's okay, if you can't find it, look for it slowly, you will always find it, don't worry, as long as she's alive!"

Yun Die said confidently.

Ye Luoli's letter can be understood by no one except herself. Unless, it is someone who has crossed over from the 21st century like them, and Yun Die is still confident in this.

Because, it's all in English.

The reason why she said this to Hongling and them, Yun Die thought, maybe Luo Li had already thought about it.....

As for Ye Luoli's safety, with the power of Night Sword Villa, she will definitely not be in danger, the real danger is herself, I hope Luo Li tells her the truth, right?

"Miss, is the city bigger?"

"I don't know."

"Haven't you been?"

"I'll go at night."

“......”

Several people chatted with each other, and Yubu outside the car was still driving the carriage as if no one was around, attentive and professional.

"Drive! Drive! Drive! ”

A group of heavily armed cavalry in battle robes quickly rushed past their carriage and rushed straight in the direction of the city, splashing a cloud of yellow sand, Yubu quickly parked the car on the side of the road, and waited for the wind and sand to dissipate before continuing on.

"Master Yubu, is something happening? How can there be cavalry? ”

Yun Die was a little frightened, such armed horseback riders were generally soldiers with special tasks. I'm afraid something has happened.

Then I thought that she was a modern person, and she was not related to the people of this dynasty, and there was no one she couldn't give up, so what was she worried about?

"Miss, I'm a coachman, and I don't know what's going on."

Yub slowed down a bit and replied respectfully.

At the gate of Youdu City, only half of the city gate was opened, and Yun Die and his party still entered the city without much effort.

Compared with the bustle and prosperity of the imperial capital, the secluded capital city is more down-to-earth, on the street, most of the people who go shopping are ordinary people, adults are holding children, husbands are holding wives, sisters are holding younger brothers... On the surrounding shops and stalls, there are a dazzling array of goods, on the stalls, all kinds of melons, fruits and vegetables, as well as the medicinal herbs that the medicine boys themselves went to the mountains to pick, many of the roots are still soiled, exuding a faint medicinal fragrance.

A playful and cute round-faced girl carried a bamboo basket in front of the medicinal herb stall and looked left and right.

"Kid, how do you sell this prunella?"

She stood still in front of a stall and asked the little boy who was guarding the stall.

The little boy was very old, only about five or six years old, he blinked his big eyes, looked up and down at the girl who asked for the price, and asked tentatively, "Sister is the Xin'er girl from Tongjitang?" ”

Xin'er looked up, "Uh... Do you know me? ”

"I don't sell you my medicine!"

When the little boy saw Xin'er admit it, he immediately changed his face.
