Chapter 403
Su Jinyao was already terrified when she heard it, and she almost couldn't believe that people could really turn into monsters.
However, she had also heard Master Zhu Xinsuo say that Gu people would be seriously assimilated by Gu worms. The longer the parasitism lasts, the more it has the habit of a Gu worm, until finally the human (xìng) completely disappears and becomes a humanoid Gu worm.
Therefore, Gu people are the highest level of Gu, but they are also the most cruel and exterminating practices (xìng).
Su Jinyao frowned and said, "To be honest, I've heard of this kind of Gu person who has been assimilated by Gu worms. But I'm not sure what will happen next after such a serious change. At best, it would be to prevent assimilation from taking place, but it would certainly not be able to bring her back to her original self. ”
Su Jinyao knows how to heal, and she can also do some simple surgical operations. But she hadn't been able to perform a technique like plastic surgery in ancient times.
Therefore, she has no guarantee that the girl who has mutated will fully return to normal.
When Aunt Ma heard this, tears flowed down her eyes, she grabbed Su Jinyao's sleeve and said, "Miss Liu, I know that although you are a disciple of a divine doctor, you are not an immortal. I don't dare to expect you to make the dream completely good, I just ask you to get her out of the well and stop changing it any further. ”
Su Jinyao thought for a moment and said, "Then can you be sure that she is not attacking (xìng) now?" How does she react when you approach her? ”
Aunt Ma nodded and said, "She won't hurt people at all, and she will even be a little scared." At first, I looked in at the well, and she was so frightened that she shrank into the water. But she probably couldn't stay in the water for long, and there seemed to be something wrong with her eyes, so I stepped back a little and she crawled out. But when they saw me, they didn't look like they were going to attack. Moreover, she actually eats bugs. ”
Not taking the initiative to attack people, or even being afraid of people, that is indeed the habit (xìng) of some insects.
In fact, except for some bloodthirsty insects that will attack humans and animals, other insects will be disturbed and stay away from humans and animals.
But Su Jinyao couldn't be sure whether this dream really had the habit of insects (xìng), or if she had a little impression of Aunt Ma, so she didn't attack her.
Seeing that Su Jinyao didn't speak, Aunt Ma was a little anxious, pulled Su Jinyao's sleeve, raised her voice and said, "Miss Liu, I beg you." She's really a dream, and she's really pitiful. It's okay to have no mother's relatives to take care of her, and it's still like this. As long as you promise to save her, I am willing to help you do anything. ”
Su Jinyao listened, shook her head slightly, and said, "Aunt Ma, I do have something to ask you for." But this has nothing to do with saving people. If I can save her, I'll do my best. ”
"Okay, as long as you do your best, then I'm willing to help you do things. Miss Liu, this is not an exchange, it is my sincere gratitude. Please, think of saving your dreams. ”
After Aunt Ma finished speaking, she knelt down, pulled Su Jinyao's sleeve and said, "Actually, I can probably know what you need." As long as you are willing to save Meng'er, I will give you that thing. ”
Of course, Su Jinyao knew that what Aunt Ma said must be the false holy decree.
But after thinking about it, she shook her head and said, "Aunt Ma, you are wrong. If you think I still need your decree, you don't have to mention it. ”
"What? You, you know it all? Aunt Ma was stunned, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
Su Jinyao smiled, stretched out her hand to help her up from the ground, and said, "I know that you have a fake holy decree in your hand, and it should be the one that harmed our Fang family." However, now that a false decree has appeared, the things that can't be changed (qíng) still can't be changed, and the people of the Fang family won't come back to life, what do you say I want this holy decree for? You wouldn't be naïve enough to think that with such a false decree, I could really bring down the man behind the scenes. ”
Su Jinyao's words were already very direct, because a false holy decree had passed for so many years, and the victims of that year had also died.
And Su Jinyao's current strength is not enough, if she boldly alarms the person behind the scenes, I am afraid that the entire Gu family will not be able to protect her.
So, this decree is no different from a time bomb. You can hit the enemy when it is critical, but you can also seriously injure yourself when you make a mistake.
Aunt Ma is not a fool, of course, she can understand what Su Jinyao means.
She thought for a moment and said, "I see, this thing really doesn't work for you." So, what about the news of the princess of Tianze Kingdom? Do you want to know what the Queen Mother asked me to invite you into the palace for? ”
This news is quite practical for Su Jinyao at present.
A dark line in the palace
Aunt Ma wants to exchange the news of the princess of Tianze Kingdom. Su Jinyao now also wants to know why the Queen Mother called herself into the palace again.
But she won't throw out her conditions at this time.
Only when the other party shows his hole cards can she test where the opponent's bottom line is.
Therefore, Su Jinyao just smiled slightly and said, "Aunt Ma, I think the Queen Mother asked you to call me into the palace, and she should also know why I live in the Gu family's courtyard, right?" Do you think that with my current (shēn) share, the princess of Tianze Kingdom will become a threat to me? ”
"Miss Liu, I just said, as long as you want, I can help you do things. So, you can say what you want now, and I won't say no. Aunt Ma seemed to be really anxious, and even promised Su Jinyao that she could do anything.
Su Jinyao nodded and said, "I also promise you that I will try my best to save your dreams." But there is a premise that she returns people (xìng) and does not do things that hurt people (qíng). Otherwise, if I knew that her existence would threaten others, I would have given up on her treatment and might even ......"
Needless to say, she thought that Aunt Ma would understand.
Aunt Ma's heart hurt, but she still nodded and said, "If my dream really turns into a monster, I won't ask you to heal her." I also don't want my daughter to become a man-eating youkai. But she didn't, she still had to be saved. So, I beg you to save her. ”
"Good. I promise you. Su Jinyao said: "However, can Aunt Ma also promise me that if something happens in the palace in the future, give me more reminders, don't let me be calculated without knowing it." ”
"No, no, no." Aunt Ma hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Being unfaithful to the master is a capital crime, but I can guarantee that I will try my best to help Miss Liu inquire about more news without betraying the master's (qíng)." Let you have someone who can take care of you in the palace. ”
Su Jinyao smiled when she heard this, and said, "If you don't talk about it, I will try not to trouble you." But the news must be, my people have no way to find out the news in the palace, so I want to ask Aunt Ma to bother more. ”
Aunt Ma naturally agreed, and it can be regarded as a dark line for Su Jinyao in the palace.
Su Jinyao said, "Since that's the case, then I'll go into the palace with you." By the way, you can also go to the cold palace to have a look. ”
Aunt Ma nodded again and again, and said, "I can assure Miss Liu that the Queen Mother just asked you to go over to catch up, and she didn't mean to embarrass you because of the matter of the princess of Tianze Kingdom (qíng). ”
Su Jinyao said indifferently: "Actually, I really don't care about the princess of Tianzeguo, and I have never regarded her as an opponent." ”
Thinking about it carefully, if Su Jinyao really cared, she would not rob the princess's dowry, and finally burned and divided it.
She just doesn't like people who covet her.
This is a normal idea that ordinary girls have. The more Su Jinyao has a sense (qíng), the more she will have this or that little temper, which she herself cannot avoid.
Therefore, Su Jinyao said: "Okay, since there is nothing serious (qíng), then I will go into the palace with you." I'm going to talk to Grandpa, let's go. I haven't had breakfast yet, though. ”
When Aunt Ma heard this, Ma said: "That's it, I've been out for a long time, I'm afraid the Queen Mother is also in a hurry to wait in the palace." Let's go first, and I'll go back and ask the imperial dining room to prepare some delicious snacks and bring them to you. ”
"Send? Where to send it? Su Jinyao asked a little puzzled: "Is it difficult, can you still send it to the Queen Mother and tell the Queen Mother that I didn't have breakfast?" ”
"Then why not?" Aunt Ma smiled when she heard this, and said, "Miss Liu, I am also the old lady in the palace." I know the Queen Mother very well, and I know how to make you like the Queen Mother, and I don't have to let you wronged yourself. ”
"Well, thank you Aunt Ma. Hold on. After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she walked back quickly.
When I returned to the dining room, I saw that Gu Shangqing was here, but Old Man Gu was not there.
Su Jinyao asked, "What about grandpa?" ”
"Grandpa went to change his clothes and said that he would enter the palace with you." After Gu Shangqing finished speaking, he looked out of the door, but didn't see Aunt Ma following, so he said, "Jinyao, don't be afraid, you will be fine when you enter the palace." And I know my grandfather very well, he is the most protective of his shortcomings, and he will not let his favorite granddaughter be wronged. ”
Su Jinyao shook her head and said, "Actually, I'm not afraid at all. Brother, don't you believe me, don't you know that I have always had a way to turn danger into disaster and enemies into friends? ”
Gu Shangqing's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Could it be that you and Aunt Ma are already noble......
"I can't say it explicitly." Su Jinyao pressed Gu Shangqing's wrist, and then said, "It's been delayed for a long time, I'm afraid that the Queen Mother will be in a hurry, so I won't go over and find my grandfather directly." You help me tell my grandfather that I'll be fine, let him have breakfast at home with peace of mind, and wait for me to come back. ”
Gu Shangqing was still worried, and Su Jinyao shook his arm vigorously, signaling him to rest assured. Only then did turn (shēn) and go out.
But Gu Shangqing was still not at ease, and Suo (xìng) followed Su Jinyao out of the door.
Aunt Ma saw that Gu Shangqing also came out, and said, "Don't worry, young master, I have already told Miss Liu just now, and I will definitely not let her be wronged." ”
Gu Shangqing nodded and said, "Aunt Ma, you are with the Empress Dowager (shēn), you should know best the relationship between our Gu family and the Empress Dowager." Jinyao is also a member of the Gu family, so please take care of her. ”
Aunt Ma nodded again and assured Gu Shangqing that Gu Shangqing would no longer pursue it.
Su Jinyao followed Aunt Ma out of the gate and saw a carriage waiting outside. The curtain of the horse was hung tightly, but the chariot still had royal markings.
The driver was a man in civilian clothes, but Su Jinyao took a special look when she passed by him (shēn) and saw that his skin was very delicate and his beard was gone, so he should be a palace eunuch.
Aunt Ma personally lifted the curtain of the carriage and invited Su Jinyao to the carriage, and then she got into the carriage herself.
The carriage started and headed straight for the palace.
Once she entered the palace, Su Jinyao was sent to a small door, and she had to walk alone through a long alley surrounded by palace walls.
But when I saw Gu Xuebin later, I realized that it was to give her a surprise, so she made a fool of herself.
This time, however, the carriage was a royal carriage, so it could be driven directly through the side door.
Su Jinyao asked, "Aunt Ma, I don't know where the Queen Mother arranged the princess of Tianze Kingdom?" It can't be the Blue Lotus Pavilion I lived in before, right? ”
In fact, the reason why Su Jinyao asked this question was completely out of a temptation of the Queen Mother's intentions.
Think about what you were meant to insist on
If the Queen Mother really arranged the princess of Tianze Kingdom in the Qinglian Pavilion where Su Jinyao lived before, it would be able to explain some problems.
Aunt Ma shook her head and said, "Miss Liu, don't worry, the Queen Mother's Yining Palace is not for everyone to live in." You also know that the people who lived in Yining Palace before were people like the Four Princes and the eldest lady of the Gu family. And the princess of Tianze Kingdom actually lives directly in Jingyi Palace. ”
Then, Aunt Ma explained Jingyi Palace again. It is said that this place does not actually belong to the inner palace, and only important envoys and family members from various countries who come to the Cloud Dome Country can live here.
Of course, this is also for the sake of a sense of connection (qíng) to show the friendship and closeness of the two countries.
Aunt Ma said again: "Miss Liu should still remember that after Mrs. Gu came to Yining Palace, I immediately asked you to leave as soon as possible (qíng), right?" ”
Of course, Su Jinyao remembered that Aunt Ma asked her to leave quickly that day, and gave her a token to leave the palace and the city. looked panicked but refused to say it explicitly.
Su Jinyao said: "Of course I remember." And as soon as I left the palace that day, I was taken away by the second prince. So until now, I think, is it that you and the second prince have calculated, as soon as I leave the palace, he will rob people. ”
Aunt Ma shook her head and said, "Actually, that day, Mrs. Gu came to tell the Queen Mother that you are the orphan of the Fang family, and you are also the lost child of the Gu family. ”
"Knowing that I was a child of the Fang family, they hurriedly let me go, and refused to disclose any news to me. What is the rationale for this? Su Jinyao sneered and said, "It doesn't mean that you're afraid that I'll take revenge, right?" ”
Regarding the murder of the Fang family (qíng), Su Jinyao has always believed that the queen mother did it. It may even be that the Queen Mother is pretending to pass on the Holy Decree.
"No, because I know that you are an orphan of the Fang family, and I also know that you are a child of the Gu family. The queen mother will not be so ruthless and let the children of the Gu family be left behind. The events of that year (qíng) are hidden (qíng), and it is inconvenient for me to say them now. But I can tell Miss Liu that I invited you into the palace this time, and I should have come for this matter (qíng). ”
Now Aunt Ma has finally said the true purpose of the Queen Mother's passage to Su Jinyao's palace.
However, what else (qíng) did Su Jinyao not know?
Fake Divine Decrees, and make so many false Divine Decrees at once, what is going on?
The most critical issue is that the false decree first killed the two sons of the Gu family (shēn) as generals, and then killed the people of the Fang family.
It can be said that the hands and eyes of those who falsely preach the holy decree are so unscrupulous.
Aunt Ma didn't continue to talk about this.
She gently lifted the corner of the carriage curtain, glanced out, sighed, and said, "It's almost there." Miss Liu, you also need to know the truth. But what I want to tell you is, think about what you're fighting for, and whether you're going to stick to it when you know the truth. ”
What was she going to fight for? Do you want to insist on it after knowing the truth?
Su Jinyao felt that Aunt Ma's words were too profound, but it also made her feel uncertain.
She regrets it a little now, it seems that she has watched less of the palace fighting drama before she traveled. No matter how good her brain is, this strange brain circuit still overwhelms her.
But in fact, there was no need to give Su Jinyao too much time to think about it. Almost as Aunt Ma finished saying this, the carriage stopped.
In this way, Su Jinyao was a little dazed, and she was faintly uneasy.
Aunt Ma lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage first. Then he held the curtain and waited for Su Jinyao to get out of the car.
After Su Jinyao got out of the car, she saw that this was already the door of Yining Palace.
Aunt Ma's qíng also became cautious, as if the plausible words that disturbed Su Jinyao's mind just now were not what she said.
The carriage "stomped" and drove away again. An attendant trotted over, saluted Su Jinyao, and then said to Aunt Ma: "Aunt Ma, the Queen Mother asked you to take this girl to take care of it first and change her clothes." ”
"Okay." Aunt Ma nodded, then turned to Su Jinyao with a serious face, and said to her, "Miss Liu, please come with me." ”
For Aunt Ma's face changing so quickly, Su Jinyao was mentally prepared. She nodded and didn't ask anything more.
Aunt Ma still brought Su Jinyao to Qinglian Pavilion, and then said, "I have prepared clothes and bath water for Miss Liu, please take a bath and change clothes." According to Miss Liu's habits, you didn't arrange someone to serve you when you bathed, but after a while, a palace maid came to dress you, so please be sure not to shirk. In half an hour, I'll invite you again. ”
Su Jinyao frowned, thinking that this matter was too formal, right?
But she can still hold her breath, and if she shows a little more impatience at this time, it may affect the overall situation.
Therefore, after Aunt Ma finished speaking, she went straight into Qinglian Pavilion without asking a word at all.
Looking at the back of Su Jinyao entering, Aunt Ma shook her head and said secretly in her heart: If you know the truth for a while, I don't know if you can still be so calm.
Su Jinyao was quite familiar with this Qinglian Pavilion, after all, she had lived there for a while, so she didn't feel anything awkward.
The room was also neat, just like when she left.
