Chapter 243: If you want to solve the puzzle, you will enter the game first
After the old doctor quickly listened to the pulse, he hurriedly packed up his things and made way for Xiao Huai'an and Su Jiao.
"Hui Yu, my lord, madam, the old lady is just drenched in the rain and infected with some wind and cold, and after a while, tell her to clean up and drink a bowl of ginger soup, and the old man will prescribe a few more prescriptions, and it will be fine if she thinks about it. It's just that this heart disease really has to be figured out by the old lady herself. ”
"I knew it." Su Jiao listened as if her heart was grabbed by a hand, muttered a few words in a low voice, and came back to her senses to thank the old doctor.
Then Mu Hibiscus personally escorted the old doctor out, and Su Jiao and Xiao Huai'an went to the courtyard next door to wait. Xiaolian, Mu Rong, and Diecui took care of Yang Ruopei to change her clothes, while Su Jiao herself watched the medicine here, uneasy.
"The day after tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, there will be a banquet in the palace, and the Ministry of Rites has already sent the invitation yesterday, but it's just ......"
Xiao Huai'an only changed into an outer robe brought by Liang Xin, and then wrapped it in a cloak, although the clothes inside were not completely soaked, but the feeling of dampness was still not very comfortable.
He sat next to the medicine stove, roasted the fire with Su Jiao, dispelled the cold, and told Su Jiao about the current situation as if chatting. Su Jiao sneered faintly, not minding what the palace people thought of herself and Yang Ruopei.
"Zuo just doesn't have my name, but it doesn't matter, I don't want to go to them anymore, a group of false people."
"Yes, besides, Yang Hou's side, I'm afraid we're too late."
As soon as she heard this, Su Jiao's subordinates paused, but as if they were expected, they took the tongs and dropped the charcoal in the medicine stove one by one.
"The birds are all gone, the good bow is hidden, the rabbit is hanged to death, the lackeys are cooked, and the people of all dynasties and dynasties are not all like this."
This blow from the calendar, Su Jiao couldn't breathe, and now it was like she was on the verge of collapse, and after learning the worst result, she couldn't show any more collapse.
It's just that by the light of the fire under the medicine stove, you can still clearly see the sparkling water in Su Jiao's eyes.
I'm afraid that Yang Ruopei also knew that this would be the end, so he desperately wore the imperial uniform of the previous dynasty to kneel and beg for the royal trial.
"Just read these words in your own heart, don't preach them everywhere, and the plan for now is to protect yourself first."
Xiao Huai'an was afraid that she would be too sad, but there was very little she could do at the moment, and she could only use such dry sentences to appease her temperament.
"Keep yourself, the so-called example of the predecessors, you are also a high authority now, a few years later, when the emperor is old and faint, do you think you can be alone again?"
Su Jiao's expression was faint, but the aura around her body was a little sluggish, Xiao Huai'an said this, and she angrily lifted the fire tongs to the ground, and the spark stuck to the tip had not had time to extinguish, so it jumped on the ground twice, and gradually dimmed.
"Perhaps." Xiao Huai'an turned his head, and his voice was so subtle that it was almost inaudible.
"Who are you? What is your relationship with the Emperor? Why do you have such self-confidence. The reason you told me before, I thought that I was just a contract with you, so I didn't get to the bottom of it, it doesn't mean that I believe you. ”
Although the voice was small, the environment in this area was too quiet, and Su Jiao was sitting beside him, so he heard it clearly.
Xiao Huai'an looked at Su Jiao and turned her face, this look of scrutiny and firm tone, I don't know for what reason, I almost wanted to blurt out and tell her the real situation.
But his mouth opened slightly, but Su Jiao turned his head and stood up, looked at the ceiling and laughed twice.
"Hahaha, it's me who is too talkative, I don't have any identity to ask you such a question, it's inconvenient for you to say it."
Then, Su Jiao lowered her head again, and dragged her ethereal and light dress around the room a few times, obviously walking around anxiously and irritably, but in Xiao Huai'an's eyes, it seemed that Su Jiao would disappear from time to time, which was worrying.
"It's ridiculous to say, I've acted in so many dramas, and I've fallen into this drama. I'm not me, and my mother is not my mother, so I can say that everything in this world has nothing to do with me, but before I knew it, I gradually entered the play, and I felt all the sadness and despair, which is more unforgettable than the feelings shown in any of my acting explosions. ”
Xiao Huai'an was taken aback, listening to her words, on the one hand, he was worried that she would be too sad and talking nonsense, and on the other hand, he actually felt that what she said was the truth.
"I thought I was hiding it from you, but right now, there should be more in you that I don't know."
"I didn't hide it from you, I told you, but you didn't believe it." Su Jiao stood still, with a very bright smile on her face, but she could only let people see the sadness hidden in it.
"I know the end of everyone, I want to change my life, I saved myself, but I can't save the people I care about the most. I could have stayed out of it, but I accepted that I was my mother's daughter, the Yang family's daughter, and, your wife. Even if it's fake, but I'm very happy in my life, and it's all because of you, thank you. ”
"For me, why not." Xiao Huai moved with peace of mind, these words were not spoken after all, he stepped forward, took the duckweed-like Su Jiao into his arms, coaxed a child, and gently patted her on the back twice.
"Don't worry, if the time comes, I will tell you everything you want to know, as long as you know, I will definitely not harm you in this life."
"Hmm." Su Jiao buried herself in Xiao Huai'an's shoulder, smelling the faint scent of lemon soap clips emanating from his clothes, and her heart was like a pool of stagnant water, without the slightest ripple.
"There is one more thing, this matter must be hidden from my mother, and she can hide it for as long as she can, at least she must be prepared in her own heart."
"Okay." Xiao Huai'an lowered his eyes slightly and responded.
The next day, because the Yang family deliberately spread the epidemic and colluded with foreign parties to disrupt the dynasty, the emperor ordered the Yang family father and son to be executed, and at noon, they were executed at the east gate of the vegetable market.
If it is placed more than ten years ago, the Yang family is the most popular with the people, and when the emperor is punished, thousands of streets and alleys gather at the door of Yang's house to intercede for loyalty, but today no one knows that the Yang family of Zhongyi Hou was at the height of the time, only a lot of people who do not know the truth are here to watch the excitement, and from time to time some rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs fly out on Xingtai.
Yesterday there was a heavy rain, but did not wash away the dirt that cleaned people's hearts, today the wooden sleeper flow came to the outskirts of the city early, although he did not go to the vegetable market to watch the execution, but the news of the city is in his hands.
In the open space that he left yesterday, there were many newly ill patients lying again, and the wooden pillow was also squatting in front of the medicine stove to boil the medicine very devotedly, and the sad moans around him filled his ears, but he did nothing, just wondered, after such a long time, why Su Jiao hadn't come over.
I don't know how long I waited, but at last a carriage came rushing towards this side, and the wooden sleeper stood up, and when the carriage came to the front and came down, it was only the hibiscus and some small men who had never met before.
"Hibiscus girl, this is ......" Mu Sleeper Liu frowned, a little didn't understand what the situation was, Mu Hibiscus simply assigned the task to the little guys, let them disperse, and then explained a few words to Mu Sleeper Liu.
"Ah, my lord heard that Mu Gongzi is also fighting and studying the epidemic here, so he specially sent someone to help, and now the city gate is closed, but the adult specially allowed Mu Gongzi to return to the city with a token in his hand."
"I'm not talking about this, there was an accident at Madame's house yesterday, is she okay?" Mu Zhuliu didn't hear the answer he wanted, and couldn't help but whisper "tsk".
Mu Hibiscus was also stunned for a moment, lowered his head and sighed, "There is a patient at home, how can it be better?" ”
"What? Is Madame sick? But it's still serious, it shouldn't be infected here, right? ”
The voice landed, and Mu Hibiscus said it was not clear, Mu Sleeper Liu suddenly panicked, and almost grabbed Mu Hibiscus directly and asked east and west, Mu Hibiscus wanted to say a few more words to him, but it was not too early to look at it, so he had to quickly turn over and get into the carriage.
"Eh, I'm sorry, Mu Gongzi, I have to go back quickly, wait for the next time the situation is better, and then come to talk to you."
"Tell me clearly, you—" Before the wooden sleeper could stop him, the hibiscus had already ridden away, and the hand that had been stretched out for him stopped lonely in mid-air.
Looking at the figure of the carriage gradually moving away, the wooden sleeper clenched his back molars and slowly put his hand down.
If she gets sick, she won't be able to take care of these people......
In the Xiao Mansion.
Su Jiaoyi stayed by Yang Ruopei's side unties, and took turns guarding with Mu Rong Xiaolian, if she was sleepy, she just lay on the table next to her and took a temporary breath.
But Xiao Huai'an couldn't stay in the house so much, he went out early, and didn't come back all day.
After a while, as evening approached, Hibiscus hurried back to the backyard from outside, not knowing what he was busy with. As soon as Su Jiao saw Mu Hibiscus appear, she looked like she had something to say, so she handed the towel that cooled down in her hand to Mu Rong, and walked out with a tired face.
"Madame, don't worry, Lord Xiao specially said to the supervisor Lord Jin, put away all the corpses of Yang Hou and Gongzi, and found a place with better feng shui to put them into the ground."
"Your Majesty must have known about this matter but did not stop it, now the graves of the two have been ordered by adults, and we are buried under the West Mountain, if the lady is free one day, the slave can take the lady to the incense."
Hibiscus whispered a few words in Su Jiao's ear, Su Jiao was a little relieved, only when she heard the sentence that the emperor also knew, she sneered a few times in her heart.
