Chapter 208: Night
[Chapter 6, Volume 6]
Section 215 Chapter 208 Night
The night breeze is bleak, and the sky is vast. Tossing and turning, uneasy. Raising his head to the bright moon, I am panicked, I don't know how the beauty is now? When you regret not being at the beginning, you worry about it day and night.
Another day, the night was late, and Yichu still hadn't slebered. In the dark sky, only the bright moon still hung outside the window. In the past, Hou Yi remembered Chang'e in the moon, is he like him at the moment, looking at the moon and worrying about the beauty?
"Knock knock." The people outside the door only knocked three times, but in this quiet night, they were particularly attention-grabbing. At least Yi Chu, who has not yet fallen asleep, can hear it clearly.
Yi Chu immediately jumped up from the bed. The master said that someone would come to visit in the next few days, and perhaps, this person could bring them news of Xiaoruo. But when he appeared in the courtyard, someone came one step ahead of him and welcomed the knocker in.
Yi Chu looked at the mysterious man whose whole person was shrouded in a black cloak, he didn't know who it was, but he couldn't wait to get Xiao Ruo's news from the mysterious man. Just as he was about to ask, Dr. Jiang made a silent gesture.
Yi Chu's anxiety, Dr. Jiang naturally knows. It's just that late at night, if you talk in the courtyard, maybe your neighbors will hear about it.
Entering the hall, Dr. Jiang lit a candle and covered it with a lampshade specially covered with a layer of black sprinkle.
In the dim light, the mysterious man lifted the hat from his cloak, revealing a face that seemed to have gone through all the vicissitudes of life.
"It's you." Only then did Yi Chu find out that the person who Dr. Jiang was waiting for was at the city gate, and the son of Li Shangshufu, Li Yanxu, who reached out to save them.
Li Yanxu nodded towards Yi Chu, glanced around, and asked directly: "Please forgive me for being rude, may I ask Miss Jin Xiaoruo, is she here?" ”
As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw that the person who opened the door was Dr. Jiang, who often treated the third lady of Lin Mansion in the past, and Li Yanxu had already affirmed eight points in his heart. It's just that at this point, he didn't see Xiao Ruo's figure, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
"Li Gongzi came late, and Xiao Ruo has already entered the palace." From what happened at the city gate as Yi Chu said, Doctor Jiang guessed that Xiao Ruo must have recognized Li Yanxu. Otherwise, Li Yanxu would not have turned around and come back to help after he was already ready to leave.
"What? Entered the palace? Li Yanxu frowned deeply, could it be that he was one step too late?
He missed five years ago, and he missed Ju Xia Lou again. When he saw the city gate, he was afraid of attracting attention, so he held back his excitement for a long time after getting her foothold, and only then did he dare to meet here.
"Yes, after the girl stayed here for three days, she has already entered the palace." Dr. Jiang is actually not as calm as he appears.
When sitting in the hall for consultation, under years of cultivation, it is natural for him to get rid of distracting thoughts and concentrate on seeing a doctor. It's just that when no one is there in the middle of the night, it is difficult to sleep. He is not as good at calculating the destiny of people as the thin old man, but he vaguely guessed that if he wants to break this situation, he must wait for the arrival of a person who can enter and leave the palace.
Among Kyoto, the only one who meets this condition and treats Xiaoruo sincerely is Li Yanxu.
"Three days, that is, she has been in the palace for four days? What news does the gentleman know? The seven days he had managed to hold back had allowed them to be separated again.
"I don't know." Doctor Jiang shook his head and said, "The palace is heavily guarded, and that girl entered the palace because of the emperor's holy decree, and she is in the deep palace, like us, it is really difficult to get any news." ”
"The Divine Decree is summoned? Could it be the holy decree a few days ago that the imperial concubine Niangniang selected a medical girl to enter the palace to protect the fetus? "When did Xiao Ruo learn the art of medicine? In the deep palace, I am cheating. A little medicine girl, mixed among the concubines, and in such a conspicuous place, I am afraid that she will become cannon fodder in a smokeless dispute.
"This is the decree. Xiao Ruo insisted on entering the palace, but she had never learned any medical skills, but before leaving, she memorized a few prescriptions to protect the fetus. If it is exposed, even if the identity is not revealed, it is a crime of deception. His sin deserves to be punished! In Yi Chu's voice, there was a lot of anxiety.
In the past few days, Yichu has been regretting why he obeyed her arrangement in the first place. Xiao Ruo threatened him to reveal his identity, but he had no choice but to agree. However, at that time, he didn't want to think about it, if Xiao Ruo really did this, those officers and soldiers would definitely start to doubt his identity. How could Xiao Ruo possibly hurt him?
He is a doctor, he can prescribe any medicine, but he regrets the medicine, he really can't help himself develop it.
"A few days ago, Xiao Ruogang and Prince Luo were besieged at the city gate. At this time, the emperor had already begun to investigate their whereabouts, and the investigation in Kyoto was also quite strict, and this situation really did not allow Xiao Ruo to risk his life again. If you can, please also ask Li Gongzi to find a way to bring Xiaoruo out of the palace, and the old man will naturally take her away from Kyoto. "Dr. Jiang entered Beijing, just to bring back Xiao Ruo and Yichu, and the antidote can only be slowly figured out.
"Prince Luo's son? Lan Yucheng was also in Kyoto at the time?! Hearing this title again, the shock in Li Yanxu's heart was no less than when Xiao Ruo's identity was determined.
When I saw the South Gate, I said goodbye for five years. Li Yanxu couldn't find out about Lan Yucheng, and he never knew that Lan Yucheng would go to see him every time he entered Beijing with a mission. After five years of no news, when he suddenly heard that Lan Yucheng also appeared, Li Yanxu couldn't wait to meet him immediately.
"I don't know if Gongzi Li knows about the top killer organization in the rivers and lakes-Qianfeng?" Doctor Jiang felt that since they had something to trust, it was still necessary to tell Li Yanxu about Qianfeng.
"The number of people with a thousand maples is fifty. When you get a task, you will definitely succeed. It's just that its cost is also the most important. But what is the relationship between Lan Yucheng and Qianfeng? Li Yanxu asked puzzled.
"Li Gongzi didn't know that after Prince Luo left Kyoto, he joined Qianfeng, and he ranked second in the first class. Xiao Ruo was in a coma in the valley for five years, and after waking up, he proposed to go to Kyoto. Xiao Ruo's master, the old man, in case of an accident with his beloved apprentice, deliberately spent thousands of dollars to choose an escort for her. Unexpectedly, by mistake, he actually picked the prince of Luo, who was hidden in Qianfeng. It's just that what I didn't expect was that Qianfeng was also the force that the emperor had planted in the rivers and lakes. I'm afraid that now, Lan Shikang already knows that the identity of Jia Er is the son of Prince Luo. Dr. Jiang concisely told the events of the past few days, in order to let Li Yanxu understand the situation at this time.
"The siege of that day will be like this." Li Yanxu was a little afraid, if that day, Xiao Ruo and Lan Yucheng were captured alive by the killers sent by Lan Shikang at the same time, I am afraid that what awaits them will be a boundless hell: they can't survive, they can't die.
In five years, Li Yanxu has missed a lot of things. Although he learned from other people's mouths, he could still imagine what kind of days the past five years had been for Lan Yucheng.
"Therefore, it is urgent to bring back Xiaoruo from the palace, and please ask Li Gongzi to pay more attention." Doctor Jiang said to Li Yanxu.
Li Yanxu dodged sideways, and after stretching out his hand to help him, he said: "Xiao Ruo and Li Yanxu are both close friends in the next place, this matter should be taken for granted, Mr. must not be like this." Li Yanxu paused and continued: "Since Kyoto is so dangerous now, why does Xiao Ruo still enter the palace alone? What about Lan Yucheng? Has he also blended into the palace? ”
Doctor Jiang shook his head and said, "The prince has not entered the palace. To enter Qianfeng, you must first take poison. In order not to be recognized, Prince Luo's son deliberately took foreign poisonous herbs to disfigure his appearance. At this time, the poison of the alien poisonous grass and the thousand maple were both in his body, causing his legs to be weak, like a cripple, and now he could only live in the valley. Lan Shikang is the owner of Qianfeng, and Xiao Ruo ventured into the palace in order to get the true antidote to Qianfeng's poison. ”
Li Yanxu's face was a little gloomy.
His love for her is no less than that of Lan Yucheng, but he can't get her to treat her so infatuatedly. Maybe one day, when he comes to such a dangerous situation, she will also sacrifice her life to help him, but all of that will never be because of love.
However, since he fulfilled them back then, now, no matter what the reason, he should help them.
"Qianfeng's antidote will definitely not be easily obtained by her. Why should she be so stupid and insist on entering the palace. Li Yanxu said with some sadness.
Looking out the window, the sky was already gray, and it would be dawn soon. Li Yanxu arched his hand towards Dr. Jiang and Yi Chu and said, "I can't stay here for a long time, if there is one thing, I will find a way to take care of it." If there is any news, I will come and inform you. ”
Doctor Jiang looked at Li Yanxu, bowed his hand and said, "Then we will wait for news here." ”
Li Yanxu nodded, walked out of the hall, and entered the courtyard. After watching left and right and seeing no one, he buried the whole person in the cloak again and hurried away.
"Master, is there a way for him to bring Xiao Ruo back?" Yi Chu looked at Li Yanxu's departing back and asked softly.
"I don't know, but in Kyoto, he is the only person who can give this matter. We can only do our best and obey the destiny of God. Doctor Jiang touched his beard and said blankly. The only pity is that even the thin old man doesn't know Xiao Ruo's fate.
Li Yanxu changed out of the black robe, stood on the highest platform of Li Shangshu's mansion, stopped and stared, and the rising sun slowly rose.
The dawn and clear light flowed slowly like broken jade, and the palace in the thin clouds and mist became more and more cold and silent.
The peach blossoms on Mo are dyed with blood, and the gentle breeze greets you, and there is an indescribable sense of vastness.
How much despair and intrigue are hidden in this gorgeous and splendid palace to make the supposed gentle breeze give people a sense of slaughter.
The beautiful woman is in the deep palace, and she is talking about something, doing something, and thinking something......
