78. Night visits to prisons
My aunt led us both back to our room. The three of them had their own thoughts, and they were silent all the way.
After entering the courtyard gate, the four palace maids who followed my aunt returned to their residence, and as soon as the outsiders left, I knew that the meeting was about to begin.
As soon as she entered the hall, Ah Qiu knelt at her aunt's feet and cried, "Qiu'er caused such a big disaster today, and she is deeply responsible. also embarrassed my aunt, Qiu'er is useless, please punish my aunt. ”
It seems that the tears that have been held back for a long time have broken the embankment at this moment. Her tears flowed down her cheeks and on her chin, glowing transparently.
I stared at my aunt's reaction, and my mood was completely different from when Concubine Fang Cai asked her about her guilt, and I was a little happy - now~, the person who was scolded was finally not me!
If you make a mistake, I will be rewarded~
Floating, floating, Xiao Su pulled back a game.
Seeing Ah Qiu's tears, my aunt bent down, put her hand on her shoulder, patted her lightly and said, "You have been punished, and you know that you are wrong, and there is no reason to punish one thing twice." Don't cry anymore, be vigilant in the future. ”
As she spoke, her aunt took her arm and got up, "Let's have lunch first." ”
I gasped and my eyes widened......
That's it, it's over?
If you don't beat or punish, you don't have a word of reprimand? Actually comforting?
Ah Qiu hurriedly wiped his face with a handkerchief, took his aunt into the seat, and returned to his place.
I was a little dissatisfied, so I hooked the round stool with my toes, moved it to a suitable position, and then sat down.
With tears in her eyes, Ah Qiu smiled at me and said, "Today is the most important thing to thank my sister!" If there is no sister to investigate in time and turn the situation around, where will my sister have the blessing of going back to the room to eat now. ”
I smiled shyly: "Sister is polite, it's all in the same room." I thought I would help others to the end, and I would have to intercede for my sister when I came back, but I didn't expect it to save trouble. Hmmm, that's fine. ”
My aunt sneered and looked at me, her eyes meaningful. Then he said: "Xiao Suzi won the jackpot today, it was dazzling, and it really shined in everyone's eyes." ”
I grinned and lifted the stool and leaned next to my aunt: "What does that aunt reward you?" ”
When my aunt chewed her food, she barely made a sound. Then she raised the corners of her mouth and smiled: "Since you just said that you will help others to the end, I will reward you for helping Qiu'er complete her letter of apology!" There's no one you'll be able to use in the future. ”
I immediately became aggrieved, my chin resting on the dinner table, and my mouth pursed.
Ah Qiu watched us chatting and returned to his usual smile.
My aunt took some vegetables and put them in my bowl: "Eat quickly, or you will delay your nap." ”
I was depressed and began to chop rice. Auntie, auntie, I want to hear a compliment from you, is it so difficult?
"Also, the lady lady will reward you with three boxes of beads and fifty taels of silver, and my aunt will collect them for you first. Those ten sets of clothes are too luxurious, and they can only be worn on festivals and birthdays, do you understand? ”
My tears were about to fall, but when I heard my aunt's serious tone, I had to say, "Yes, I wrote it down." ”
The following is Xiao Su's voice -
Bang bang
This is the ideal, the so-called "concern", the sparse sound that I stepped on!
In the second half of the day, there were not many excerpts in the imperial study, so someone was free to adjust the records of entering and leaving the palace for the first half of the day, and I saw an interesting one - Li Nai, the eldest son of the king of the northern realm, had a record of entering and leaving the palace when he was in Si.
And the reason for the incident was that the secretary of the Deshang Service Bureau played Si Xuan, who came to the palace to take away the bracelets, hairpins, rings and other things that Queen Yan of Daxing left for his mother and sister before driving, so as to leave mourning......
I can't help snickering, to get some souvenirs, you also need the eldest prince to come and go, really "valued"!
is also surnamed Li, this Li family is not a little bit different from the Li family of Zuo Xiang.
When it was dark, the night was sad, and people's hearts began to be fragile, I carried a lantern and slowly walked into the palace.
The exterior lobby, the office area of the councillors, and the archives where the mistakes of the concubines are kept.
The rest of the torture chamber and detention room are nothing more than half a dungeon, and only when you enter it will realize that it is gloomy and vast.
The dim candle flame illuminates the hearts of those who are melancholy. The charcoal furnace used for torture was half-extinguished, and it was no longer red and dim.
This is where many lives end. This reminds me of the cremation furnaces of another world, so is the color of people's last journey the color of the fire going out?
Everything here is repressed.
Turning his head to the left, two unkempt women in the torture chamber were being tortured. The neck and hair were hung by ropes, and only by standing on tiptoe to support the body would not be hanged.
Forehead.
Why don't you shoot a brick to death, but also torture and kill.
Mama Dian Zheng led me to a detention room and said, "The little scholar girl should only go and ask questions, and if this guy is not honest, you will ring the bell, and Mama and the guards will come over when they hear it." ”
I pushed open the wooden gate, and the hay on the ground seemed to be freshly laid, and there was no mold or blood in sight.
The medical officer, Mu Jia, lay on her side with her legs curled up, using her arms as a pillow, and when she saw someone coming, she slowly opened her eyes and did not move at all.
I sat on the low stool that Mama had moved in for me and looked at his injured ankle. It seems to have been dealt with, and now it has been wrapped in a thick white stacked cloth.
I spoke first: "The little doctor also diagnosed my pulse and prescribed a prescription the day before yesterday, why don't you know me now?" ”
He ignored me, and suddenly sneered: "If I knew that this matter could be bad in your hands, I should have prescribed a dose of fierce medicine to poison you that day." ”
"Tut-tut!" I slammed my mouth and said, "It's a good idea, but it's a pity that you missed the opportunity, didn't you?" ”
He gritted his teeth and exhaled from his nose. Full of satisfaction and uneasy appearance.
I looked at it and smiled, "Now, you still have the spirit to use for anger." If I were you, I would have thought about how I could save my life. ”
He fiddled with a piece of hay and said in a dragging voice, "What is my life, how can I bother others." ”
I raised my eyebrows and said, "Isn't it, the little doctor is still counting on that Li Yan to save you?" ”
He didn't say anything.
I continued: "It's a pity~, who will save a useless chess piece? But if you have a little ability, you won't find out the little prince in half a day. ”
The young man who had a weak breeze the day before yesterday was immediately dyed with grief and resentment after this battle today.
It seems that "kindness without experience is not true goodness", and the so-called "indifference" is the same, a little destruction, and chaos.
The slight surge of anger mixed with the chaotic emotions, he couldn't help but scold me: "What do you know?!" ”
I continued to tease him: "Oh? I don't know much, but I know that you and I were born on the same day! ”
I put the word "same day" and bit it very hard.
He sat up with a startle, his eyes wide, and he looked at me uneasily.
I chuckled, I wasn't completely sure, but look at your reaction, it's okay.
At the same time, a little fire buried deep in my heart suddenly burned at this moment!
I said fiercely: "This stupid and stupid Li Can, with the strength of the whole country to find it, it turns out that men and women can make mistakes!" ”
Then calmed down his emotions and continued to dance with his eyebrows: "It's rare to meet a boy born on the day of Bai Lu in the year of Xinmao, tell me when you were born?" Let's divide the order of the eldest and youngest. ”
His face turned red and he said, "How did you find out?" ”
I shook my calves and looked delicate: "Although you don't look like Li Kaikai, you are similar to your sister Li Kaikai, at a certain point, similar in shape and rhyme!" Really, this alone has made me think about it for two days, and it's a headache! ”
The flesh of his cheek squeezed up: "What else?" There must not be only one reason for you to make such judgments. ”
I laughed: "Yes, yes, it's time to get started." ”
"There's another reason. It's also a coincidence, yesterday I inadvertently saw you come out of the Chengxiang Palace, but it was Xiao Shizi's nurse who sent it away, but it was also sent too far, and it was sent to the side of the rockery. ”
"I accidentally became curious~, I took two steps closer, woo-la-la, I only heard the three words of the second young master."
"When I came back, I kept thinking, there is a big young master and a little prince in this northern palace, who is this second young master?"
"Hahaha, just this morning, I suddenly felt that this second young master should be called you."
I stared at Mu Jia and smiled: "Dare to love these minions in order to use the wooden doctor to weave a dream for you to serve your father, be recognized by your father, and be able to return home, right?!" ”
Annoyed, he pounced on me and tried to punch me, but his feet were badly injured and he was slow to move. On my side, he threw himself into the air, hitting the ground and holding his ankle and hissing in pain.
I disdainfully said, "Don't make a fuss! ”
It took a lot of effort for me to drag him back to the straw mat.
I exhaled, "You're so heavy. ”
Then he learned to speak in a serious tone, "If you are angry with me, it is wrong." Your confessions are incomplete, and there are parts that you have not confessed. But I haven't told the saints yet! ”
"Today, Li Nai entered the palace, and he smuggled Xiao Shizi out of the palace. This is your first plan, right? ”
However, the matter was discovered too early, and the city gates were closed eight times out of ten, and everyone who entered and exited had to take off their outer robes and check them. That's why you're forced to abandon the quickest plan for the first plan and change to the second plan. Am I right? ”
He listened to me, curled up, and began to sob.
This......
We are born as human beings, are all women and men delicate?
I patted the dust off my hands and said, "Crying ghost, I'll tell you the truth." This time, I came for the sake of public affairs, but in fact it was for private purposes. I'm just trying to figure out why the King of the North is trying to slaughter us, so you might as well tell me! Perhaps if you did, I would not tell the saints about your first plan, wouldn't it have preserved your brotherhood? ”
I looked at his reaction, still with tears in my eyes, and continued: "If you still believe in the promises of these minions, or even the promises of the eldest prince Li Nai, and think that the king of the northern realm can recognize you, then you will believe it. In the camp of Lishan, he has killed fourteen of our seventeen women! ”
"Mu Jia, he actually killed you!"
"He's killed you fourteen times, is there still a fifteen missing?"
He covered his ears and roared, "Stop talking! Stop it! ”
The world is quiet again.
The knife-like window lets in the bright moonlight from the outside~
The insects have not yet chirped, and the occasional sound of iron chains is still heard.
The moonlight slowly hit his body, his eyes. He raised his eyes lightly, his eyes were still clear, and there was a hint of innocence......
I saw him move his lips slowly: "That's it." It's been hidden for ten years, and it's suffocated, so it's good to talk about it. ”
