Chapter 98: Death is like a lamp going out

Not so good?

What does it mean to not be so good?

Duan Chichi's heart sank, his bloodless face was a little dignified, it took a step back, turned around mechanically, and asked Pan Fu uncertainly, "Are all the wound medicine and anesthetic ready?" ”

Panfu said softly, "It's ready." ”

"Bring the medicine box and go to the Wild Goose Tower."

At this moment, in the Xunyan Tower, Yunxiao has been properly placed, and when Duan Chichi and his party arrived in a hurry, Yunxiao on the couch had already fallen asleep.

Achu saw Huaiyu and the others and explained, "On the way back, Yun Gongzi's mood was very unstable, and the landlord gave him the Tranquilizing Zhu Dan Pill and forcibly put him to sleep. ”

Huaiyu nodded, did not speak, only pursed his lips slightly worried and looked at the clouds that collapsed.

Duan Chichi choked up and was silent, walked to the side of the bed in three or two steps, stretched out his hand to probe Yunxiao's forehead, and saw that he did not have a fever, his breathing was stable, and he seemed to be fine.

Duan Chichi felt a little at ease at this time.

Then he slowly uncovered the corners of the quilt, and suddenly his heart ached, and tears welled up.

Huaiyu and Duan Qinqin stood behind them, only to see a piece of empty sleeves hanging softly on the blue-gray bed, silently showing the suffering it had suffered.

Duan Chichi was in tears, and with trembling hands, he pulled up his sleeves, and Duan Qinqin, who was standing next to Huaiyu, saw it, two lines of tears fell down, and he covered his face and threw himself into Huaiyu's arms.

Huaiyu patted her lightly, and said to the people around her, "Let's go out first, let the two of them stay alone for a while." ”

Ah Wei Achu nodded, led a group of maids and guards to retreat quietly outside, Huaiyu helped Duan Qinqin, who was crying breathlessly, to walk out, and said to Pan Fu and Xiao Liu, "Pay attention to the movement inside." ”

Tonight, Xunyan Tower is destined to be brightly lit.

In the study, Pei Ji'an and Zhao Yan sat opposite each other and had a secret conversation.

As soon as he thought of today's meeting with Duan Qingshu in Xianheng Qianzhuang, Pei Ji'an was angry.

More than ten years ago, he couldn't compare to Duan Qingshu in front of Sister Chen, and when he sees him today, he still loses a mess.

The other party has already secretly focused on all aspects of his search for the wild goose building, from Xun Huan to Qian Duoduo, to Xu Zhibai and Zi Ying, the people of the Eagle Seeking Alliance have monitored his every move of the search for the wild goose tower tightly, but he has no understanding of the other party at all.

How can it not be shocking!

Pei Ji'an sighed, "Now it seems that the power of the Eagle Seeking Alliance is much more mysterious than we imagined. I thought it was just an organization that had been established for less than 20 years, and it had no background, but I never thought that its power in the southwest was no worse than Xunyanlou! ”

"Hmm."

"Duan Qingshu has been really painstaking and lonely all these years, he is still the same as back then, what he wants to do must be done, and he will not give up until he reaches his goal."

"Hmm."

"This person is gentle and elegant on the surface, but in fact he is extremely vindictive, and he caught Yunxiao because Xunyanlou found Zi Ying and others."

"Hmm."

Pei Ji'an talked to himself for a long time, in exchange for Zhao Yan's lazy "um", he opened his mouth and fell silent again.

Zi Ying and Xun Huan rescued a Yunxia, this is the most failed thing he Pei Ji'an has done, and it is also the most miserable mission in the history of Xunyan Tower, or he did it himself as the owner of the building, it is really ridiculous!

No wonder Young Master Yan looked so solemn.

"Duan Qingshu returned to Xiangcheng, is it just to save Zi Ying?"

After Pei Ji'an said this, he shook his head again and again and sneered, in Duan Qingshu's eyes, these people are just chess pieces, the task of the chess pieces is to charge into battle, how could he come to the rescue?

Zhao Yan, who looked solemn, suddenly opened his eyes: "Is there still no news from Kyoto?" ”

This is the second time Zhao Yan has asked this question in the past two days.

Pei Ji'an paid attention to it with horror, the news that Xunyanlou usually comes from everywhere, after layers of classification, important news will be transmitted to Qiyingwei, after Qiyingwei checks, the news of the next level will be sorted out and put into the library cabinet, when it needs to be called, it can be taken out through the organ in the study of Xunyanlou.

Pei Ji'an took out a pile of parchment rolls like last time, and after reading them one by one, he said in a deep voice, "These days, there is news in Kyoto, but it is not related to the emperor and the Wang family. ”

Zhao Yan was motionless, "Who is in charge of the news of the Wang family and the emperor?" ”

"The one in charge of the Wang family is Ji Diao, this person has a sharp mouth and handsome eyebrows, and has been in the Prime Minister's Mansion for many years; As for the palace, all the news big and small were passed on by Qianxi, and her current identity is a first-class palace maid in Concubine Ning's palace. ”

"The concubine Ning that the emperor brought back from the people of Jiangnan?"

"Exactly."

It is precisely because this Concubine Ning was born from a low background and has no one in her mother's family that Qianxi became a trusted person in her palace so easily.

Zhao Yan rubbed his eyebrows, and his tone was calm, "Send someone back to Kyoto to check." ”

The news from these two places has been delayed, either something has happened to Eria, or Qianxi is in trouble.

Fortunately, the secret agents scattered everywhere in Xunyanlou do not know each other, and if one person's identity is exposed, the impact on others is not so great.

"Duan Qingshu, or Wang Yun lost the battle with great fanfare, lost the city, and can still run freely to Xiangcheng to take care of the affairs of the Eagle Alliance, then, there are only two possibilities, one is that the emperor is dead, and the other is that the emperor is controlled by them."

Either way, the world is going to change hands?

Pei Ji'an frowned and said, "Duan Qingshu actually did such a rebellious thing, it really makes me unbelievable. ”

He still remembers that Duan Qingshu more than ten years ago respected Confucianism the most, advocated "learning literature and martial arts, and buying from the emperor's family", and recognized "the monarch, the minister, the father, the son, the son".

What happened to make such a Confucian scholar with integrity and ambition endure and lie dormant for more than ten years to replace this country?

"I'll go and arrange for Ah Qin to go to Kyoto in person." Pei Ji'an said and walked out from now on, but was stopped by Zhao Yan.

"Duan Qingshu said he wanted to see me?"

"Not bad." Pei Ji'an stopped and turned around, "He is one of the few people who knows your mother's identity, he wants to see you, and I guess it's because of your mother." ”

Scold!

Zhao Yan listened, waved his hand and asked Pei Ji'an to get busy, and after Pei Ji'an disappeared, Zhao Yan smiled lightly, not thinking about why Duan Qingshu wanted to see him, his thoughts flew to the question of what kind of person his mother was?

What kind of person is it that so many people can remember after so many years of death?

I really want to see her demeanor in the world, Zhao Yan sighed again, and the lights in the house were reflected in his eyes, and they were clearly extinguished.

He suddenly remembered that in the bleak March of that year, after Mr. Kong of the Feihong Pavilion passed away suddenly, Huaiyu once asked him "Where will people go after they die", and he replied that "people die like lights going out".

Huaiyu, whose eyes were red from crying, faced death for the first time, although he didn't want to believe this helpless and cruel fact, he still cried and admitted that "when people die, there is nothing."

When people die, is there really nothing?

Zhao Yan had a different answer at this time.

Some people are dead, but he is still alive.
