Chapter 469
As the wind blew, the two crumbling door panels hanging on the fence made a "squeak" sound, and the temperature around them seemed to cool down by several degrees.
Aunt Ma tried to look back again, but Su Jinyao immediately reminded: "Don't turn your head, unless you want to die here, and then go to the well to accompany Meng'er?" ”
Aunt Ma's body stiffened obviously, and then she took weak steps and got into the sheep cart.
As soon as she got on the sheep cart, Aunt Ma almost fainted. His face was pale because of excessive blood loss, and he couldn't stop shivering.
Su Jinyao glanced at her and said, "Gritting your teeth and persevering, you can't help but pinch your thighs with your hands." Whether you can survive depends on whether you can survive until you go back. ”
Aunt Ma blinked again with difficulty, and Su Jinyao didn't speak again, picked up the little whip and whipped it directly on the goat's buttocks.
The goats used to be driven and trotted all the way to the sound of the whip, but they were never really hurt.
Su Jinyao's whip went down, causing the goat to scream in pain, and then slammed forward, running all the way out.
Although there were some bumps
, but Su Jinyao glanced at Aunt Ma, who was about to lose consciousness, and felt that this would force her to stay awake for the last time.
Even if there is blood flowing out of the wound again, Su Jinyao can't care about it so much, as long as she can hurry back, Aunt Ma still has a glimmer of hope.
Fortunately, I didn't meet anyone on the way back. Occasionally, there are palace maids or eunuchs passing by in the distance, and when they see that it is the sheep cart of Yining Palace coming here, they dare not approach.
In addition, the sheep cart ran so fast that these people didn't have time to see who was on the sheep cart and what happened to that person, and the sheep cart had already run over.
All the way to the back door of Yining Palace, Su Jinyao pulled the sheep cart but hesitated.
If you go in now, there will be many more palace maids, chamberlains and guards here than on the road, and it is impossible for Su Jinyao to sneak in without being discovered.
And the Queen Mother and Mrs. Gu should still be discussing the prince's wedding, it is estimated that the queen mother is also there, how should she explain?
But if she didn't go in, would Su Jinyao take such an Aunt Ma out of the palace?
Presumably, you don't have to wait until you leave the palace, as long as you walk a little further ahead, people will be discovered. She also jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't wash it.
By now, Su Jinyao couldn't help but get angry again because of her recklessness. When did she start to become so nosy and reckless?
Perhaps, I should leave Aunt Ma here? Su Jinyao looked at the blood stains on her hands, it was not difficult to get rid of.
As long as she handles herself now, with her good psychological quality, she can go out calmly, and then swagger to find the Gu family sisters, and then leave the palace.
As for Aunt Ma, let yourself go to the imperial doctor. Su Jinyao was able to bring her back here, which can be regarded as benevolent and righteous.
Aunt Ma seemed to see Su Jinyao's thoughts, she hooked the corners of her mouth, revealing a very helpless and bleak smile. Then he waved his hand at Su Jinyao and pointed to the road ahead.
Su Jinyao was stunned for a moment, and asked tentatively, "You let me go?" ”
Aunt Ma smiled and blinked slowly.
Su Jinyao's eyebrows furrowed, and her heart suddenly relaxed. Then he took a deep breath and asked, "Is there a palace maid you can trust?" Tell me her name. ”
Aunt Ma blinked, then opened her mouth and tried to inhale. Then he said a name in a completely angry voice: Xilan, Lian?
Although she couldn't tell whether it was Xilian or Xilan, Su Jinyao nodded and said, "I'll go in and find her now, you can give me something." ”
Aunt Ma thought about it, took off a ring from her hand, and handed it to Su Jinyao.
There was still blood on the ring, but the blood had dried up and solidified on the ring.
Su Jinyao's hand that took the ring was also bloodstained, but now she couldn't care so much.
She grabbed the ring, put her hands in her sleeves, and jumped off the sheep lane: "Count a hundred, don't count too fast." You must not fall asleep during the count, and I will come back before you finish counting. ”
Aunt Ma blinked again, but she only blinked, and Su Jinyao had already run into the back door quickly.
Looking at Su Jinyao's disappearing back, Aunt Ma's heart fell, and she vaguely smelled a trace of despair.
But she couldn't help but think, maybe Su Jinyao could come back? One, two, three, four...... Aunt Ma began to count silently in her heart.
The person who slammed into it
Su Jinyao ran in from the back door not far before two eunuchs saw her. The two eunuchs were stunned for a moment, as if they were hesitating whether they should come over to say hello.
Su Jinyao walked straight over, lowered her voice and asked, "Aunt Ma is looking for Xilian." ”
"Huh? Helian? One of the eunuchs asked again with a puzzled look on his face.
Su Jinyao's eyes flashed slightly, and she immediately corrected: "It's Xilan." ”
"Oh, Heelan's over there." The eunuch immediately pointed out the direction to Su Jinyao.
But the other eunuch next to him hurriedly said, "Little master of the Gu family, I'll help you find Xilan over." ”
Su Jinyao nodded, still holding her sleeves, standing firmly, and said, "Go quickly." ”
The eunuch hurriedly trotted all the way over, apparently because he had a chance to curry favor with a certain master in the future.
After a while, the eunuch led a palace maid in her early twenties over quickly.
The palace maid looks very ordinary, she looks honest, but her eyes are shining, she should be the kind of person who doesn't show her mind and looks very honest.
It's no wonder that who can mix in the palace, which one is not a person who pretends to be obedient on the surface and has a shrewd mind? Even if you are a little dull in the first place, you have to learn to be obedient if you want to survive here.
The palace maid came to Su Jinyao's front and immediately saluted: "Master Ya, the slave maid is Xilan." Are you looking for slaves? ”
"It's not me looking for you, it's Aunt Ma looking for you." After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she pouted at the two eunuchs Nunu and said, "You look at the two of them first, remember their appearance, and I will ask Aunt Ma to reward them when I go back." ”
"Master Xie Ya." The two eunuchs were immediately happy and hurriedly thanked them.
Su Jinyao raised her chin and glanced to the side. The two eunuchs understood and hurried away.
The two of them are also shrewd, knowing that Aunt Ma must have something to do with Xilan, so it is inconvenient to listen here.
And Su Jinyao promised to reward them, and Xilan also remembered them, so that's it.
No matter how bad it is, there is no real benefit, and if you can make the housekeeper of Yining Palace remember the two of them, it will be easier to mess around in the future.
Su Jinyao saw the two eunuchs walk away, so she took out the hand that was copied in her sleeve and showed the bloody ring to Xilan.
As soon as Xilan saw the blood on Su Jinyao's hands, her eyes changed, and her heart was beating "thump".
Then when he saw the ring in Su Jinyao's hand, he suddenly seemed a little panicked. lowered his voice and asked anxiously, "Where is Magu?" What's wrong with her? ”
Su Jinyao winked at her and signaled her not to panic too much and not to attract the attention of others.
Then he said, "If you believe me, first go find cotton thread and a large needle for sewing clothes, and scissors." The cotton thread should be soaked in sesame oil and brought it. Go fast, the sooner the better. ”
Xilan was obviously stunned, but after all, she had experienced some things in the palace, so she quickly calmed down, nodded, and turned to leave.
Su Jinyao said behind her: "If you find it, go to the back door, Aunt Ma and I will wait for you there." But don't let anyone else follow. ”
"Yes." Xilan agreed, and her steps became faster and faster.
Su Jinyao looked around again, but fortunately, no one else noticed. It's a remote back door, and it's winter again, so no one will wander around this side if there's nothing to do.
Su Jinyao turned around and came to the back door again, and saw that Aunt Ma had fallen crookedly on the sheep cart, and her hands were drooping.
willow
Ya walked over quickly, perhaps because the footsteps were louder, Aunt Ma actually opened her eyes a slit, as if she wanted to see who was coming.
"It's me. She's found Xilan, and she'll be right away. As she spoke, Su Jinyao took out a silver needle and stabbed it in Aunt Ma's person.
Aunt Ma was in pain, so she opened her eyes, but her eyes were already dilated, and the whole person looked lifeless, as if she was going to die in the next moment.
Su Jinyao grabbed Aunt Ma's hand, pressed her pulse, frowned slowly, and looked anxiously in the direction of the back door.
Time is really running out, and Aunt Ma is afraid that she will not be able to hold on.
Su Jinyao's hand was still pressed on Aunt Ma's pulse, but she already felt that her pulse was getting weaker and weaker, and her eyes, which were opened by stimulation just now, slowly closed again.
Su Jinyao always stared at the direction of the back door, but there was nothing she could do. At this time, there is really no other way but to wait.
took Aunt Ma out, Su Jinyao couldn't tell herself, but caused trouble plainly.
Even if Su Jinyao is not afraid of causing trouble, she really doesn't want to have anything to do with Gu Xuebin's affairs anymore.
Her happiness is right in front of her, a beautiful moment that both of them have been looking forward to for a long time, how can it slip away in this moment?
Su Jinyao even looked at Aunt Ma, who was already unconscious, and bit her teeth again and again. But she didn't leave after all.
Because Su Jinyao feels that her heart has been warmed, she can no longer be infected by indifference, and the days of treating human life as a mustard are gone, she is now a real doctor, and the doctor must stay by the side of the patient.
Finally, Su Jinyao heard the sound of hurried footsteps. Listen to the pace frequency of a woman's running.
Su Jinyao finally breathed a sigh of relief, if Xilan came now, everything would still have a chance.
As for how to end and explain all this after bringing Aunt Ma back from the Ghost Gate, that's all for later.
But just when the footsteps had come to the back door, Su Jinyao had already seen the show shoes that were about to step out.
But then I heard Xilan's "ah", as if I was greatly frightened.
Su Jinyao's heart sank, and her first thought was that Xilan had been discovered. She rushed over without hesitation, wanting to get the life-saving things first.
Su Jinyao's figure was extremely fast, and she had already come to the back door in two steps and rushed in.
However, as soon as she broke through the back door, a tall figure was about to step out, and the two of them collided at once.
"Whew!" Su Jinyao only felt that the human wall in front of her was too strong, and her breathing was stagnant, and her body fell backwards all of a sudden due to the reaction force.
But a powerful big hand reached over, grabbed Su Jinyao, and pulled her into her arms suddenly.
"Jinyao, what's going on?" Gu Xuebin's anxious voice sounded, and at the same time, he saw Su Jinyao's bloodstained hands and a few pieces of blood stained on her body, and suddenly felt that his breathing was about to stop.
"You ?!!" When Su Jinyao was pulled into her arms, she found that it was Gu Xuebin's arms.
But she was completely stunned, she didn't know why Gu Xuebin appeared here, and she rushed directly to the back door?
"Jinyao, where did you get hurt? Who would dare to hurt you? Gu Xuebin tried his best to calm down, but he could still only see the blood red in his eyes.
Gu Xuebin came too timely
Gu Xuebin couldn't describe the heartbeat at that moment, his Jinyao, his beloved, the woman he had already identified and was going to join hands for a lifetime, at this time, he was covered in blood, and his eyes were full of angry flames.
But his arm holding Su Jinyao was extremely gentle, for fear that a little bit of strength would aggravate her wound.
He didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that a little louder would blow away the treasure in his arms. That heart-wrenching pain made Gu Xuebin's body tremble slightly.
Su Jinyao immediately sensed that something was wrong with Gu Xuebin, and immediately understood that he had misunderstood.
Su Jinyao hurriedly said, "Che, it's not me who is injured, it's Aunt Ma." You're just in time, help me. ”
Su Jinyao said, broke free from Gu Xuebin's arms, and pointed to the sheep cart outside the back door.
Gu Xuebin was stunned for a moment, and looked down at Su Jinyao again, only to find that her breathing was steady and her face was as usual. And although the blood stains on the body are mottled, most of them have also dried up, and they are not blood.
Gu Xuebin let out a long breath at this time, and the anger in his eyes was replaced by gentleness.
As if he hadn't heard Su Jinyao speak, he didn't even glance at the sheep cart outside the back door, first picked up Su Jinyao's face and looked at it, and then suddenly hugged her into his arms again.
"Che, don't do this, go and save people." Su Jinyao knew why Gu Xuebin was so out of shape, so she could only push him away again and let him go with him to save people.
Gu Xuebin nodded, lowered his head and said to Xilan, who was still sitting on the ground: "Get up quickly, listen to Jinyao's instructions, and go to help." ”
Xilan was running in a hurry just now, and she was sure that no one was following behind her. But suddenly, someone rushed over from behind, grabbed her, and when she looked back, she found that it was His Royal Highness the Prince, so she was naturally frightened and fell to the ground all of a sudden.
Now that Gu Xuebin called her up, Xilan's legs were still weak. But fortunately, she didn't throw out the things in her hand when she fell, so she handed the things to Su Jinyao first, and then stood up against the wall.
Su Jinyao took the things, and no matter how staggering Xilan stood up, she turned around and ran towards Aunt Ma.
Returning to the side of the sheep cart again, as soon as Su Jinyao grabbed Aunt Ma's wrist, her heart began to sink.
Aunt Ma's pulse was already very slow, and if she didn't touch it carefully, Su Jinyao wouldn't even feel her pulse beating.
But there is still a glimmer of hope for saving, and if you don't save her, it's really over. So Su Jinyao chose to try it without hesitation, she hoped that Aunt Ma still had the last hope.
Gu Xuebin also came to the side of the sheep cart, squatted down and looked at Su Jinyao, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"It's not that I hurt her, but I can't say it now." Su Jinyao opened the strip of cloth wrapped around Aunt Ma's neck with her hands, and said, "Here I and Xilan are fine, can you help me figure out a way to cover up this matter?" ”
If it were someone else, Su Jinyao would probably only be able to tell the truth, and in the end, she might have to confess the dream that had sunk into the well.
It's not that Su Jinyao is immoral, but in this case, the right choice is to tell the truth.
But now that Gu Xuebin is here, Su Jinyao's heart suddenly felt peaceful and safe, and she believed that everything would be left to Gu Xuebin.
Gu Xuebin twisted his good-looking eyebrows, stood up and took a look
around, and then said: "Okay, you save her first, I'll figure it out." ”
Su Jinyao took the time to glance at Gu Xuebin, and when she saw Gu Xuebin's expression, she roughly understood his plan, and asked, "Catch the assassin?" ”
Gu Xuebin took a breath, nodded and said, "That's the only way." ”
In addition to playing a scene of assassins, how to explain that a grandmother in the palace was suddenly seriously injured? And Su Jinyao is still implicated, so it's even more difficult to lie.
As for how many people believe in this play after it is performed, it is not within the scope of Gu Xuebin's consideration.
I believe that no one will track down the truth or falsity of His Royal Highness the Prince's confession.
As for whether the assassin can be caught, that is also a matter for the palace guards to worry about, and it has nothing to do with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Su Jinyao didn't speak anymore, but looked at Xilan who came over tremblingly, and said, "Aunt Ma believes in you very much." When she was at her weakest, she was only the first to think of you, so you don't let her down and help me save her. She won't treat you badly in the future. ”
Su Jinyao believes that this Xilan must also be a smart person.
She should know very well that if she saved Aunt Ma, she just got a great favor, and Aunt Ma will indeed treat her preferentially in the future.
Xilan's face was frightened. But even if she doesn't want to help now, and see that even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here, this elegant master is already a sure crown princess, who can afford to offend?
One of her little palace maids has been implicated, and it is too late to escape at this time.
And it is estimated that as long as she turns around slightly, whether it is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince or Master Ya, as long as she shouts "There is an assassin", then she will have to carry the black cauldron of this assassin.
Thinking of this, Xilan walked quickly towards this side with still vain steps. But as soon as she saw Aunt Ma's exposed wounds, she was so frightened that she almost went back to the ground.
