Chapter 441: Jade Pendant
As soon as Gu Feiyan saw the bloodstained old woman on her face, she immediately took out the instinct of a doctor, he quickly cleaned the wound for him, and then carefully applied medicine and bandaged the wound. He also cleaned the blood stains on her face.
"I didn't expect it to be you, Mr. Gu!" The old woman's tone was a little surprised.
"I didn't expect my aunt to be the person my friend has been looking for."
"Your Majesty!" As soon as the old woman saw Ming Xuanze, her eyes turned red, "The old slave greets Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed with peace." ”
She knelt on the ground in an orderly manner and made a big bow respectfully.
"No need to be polite, I've been looking for you for a long time, but I haven't heard from you. After so many years, I have wronged you. ”
"No grievances, no grievances." The old woman's emotions were very excited, and in order to prevent the wound from bursting again, Gu Feiyan had to remind them again and again to restrain their emotions.
"Do you know where my mother is?" Ming Xuanze asked what he wanted to ask.
The old woman didn't seem to hear his question, but cautiously opened her baggage, took out a piece and a half of the jade pendant from it and handed it to Ming Xuanze.
"This jade pendant was originally divided into two...... "The woman's face was pale, and she spoke very weakly, as if she could ...... at any time
"Split in two? Where's the other jade pendant? ”
Ming Xuanze looked at her and asked anxiously.
"Another jade pendant...... Ahem...... Ahem......"
"You're ......"
"Another jade pendant. In the hands of Niangniang's friend, when the incident happened suddenly, Niangniang handed over the jade pendant to the two of us, and it was best for the officers and soldiers to track it down, and I was separated from the young lady, and after so many years, the old slave couldn't remember what his name was and what he looked like. ”
The woman said with a sad face, "The old slave is really useless, and he can't help your son." The woman spit out a mouthful of blood as she spoke, and trembled and handed the jade pendant in her hand to Ming Xuanze, "This jade pendant is very important, Gongzi should be good to keep it, there are mixed fish here, Gongzi should leave as soon as possible." ”
"You also said that this jade pendant is very important, I can't leave you here, you better come with me, I will send the best doctor to heal you." Ming Xuanze said that he was about to pull the woman up, but the woman shook her head violently.
"Your heart, the old slave, has it. But my body, can I still not know......"
The woman said and looked at Ming Xuanze, "Childe." The old slave has been breathing for so many years, and it is already a blessing to see you, but unfortunately the old slave really does not have this blessing, and he can see his mother again, now. I just hope that Childe can rescue Niangniang as soon as possible... The old slave will always pray for the mother and the child......"
"What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you get someone into the carriage quickly......"
"Master...... Mama she ......"
At the moment when Ming Xuanze turned around and issued the password, Madame's hand gradually drooped.
"Mamama...... "Mama" Ming Xuanze turned his head, seeing this, you showed a sad emotion, after many years, I finally had a clue, but I didn't expect it......
"Master, there's no help anymore."
Seeing this, the attendants also lowered their heads.
"Master, let's get out of here as soon as possible, it's not safe here."
"I know...... When I go back with my grandmother's body, I will find her a grave. Ming Xuanze clenched the jade pendant in his hand, his curiosity about the things of the year became heavier and heavier, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a little more jealous of the forces behind him.
"None of you are allowed to speak out about today's events without my command, and besides, don't drag your feet in the future. lest the rumors leak out. ”
"Yes."
Ming Xuanze mixed the woman's body with the dead soldiers, but fortunately it didn't attract attention, and Gu Feiyan immediately greeted Ming Xuanze when he saw them coming back.
"How? What did the woman say? ”
Gu Feiyan saw that Ming Xuanze's expression was not quite right, and hurriedly asked.
Seeing Gu Feiyan, Ming Xuanze was also a little relieved, but there were so many people outside, he didn't have much to say, so he shook his head slowly.
Those people are in the dark and they are in the light, they are already at a disadvantage, this time Gu Feiyan unintentionally found out the clues, nothing happened is a great luck, if she gets involved again in the future, I am afraid that it will be......
Ming Xuanze could only be ruthless and kept silent about the matter, "Inform the soldiers that we will return to the capital immediately." ”
"You haven't told me what happened?" Gu Feiyan didn't give up and wanted to continue asking, so he followed Ming Xuanze back to the camp.
"By the time we arrived, the woman was dead."
Ming Xuanze said as he packed up the things in his hand, "It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, you should go back and pack your things as soon as possible." ”
"Dead ......"
Gu Feiyan also frowned, he didn't expect that woman to be killed so soon......
"She died of illness. I was afraid that she was infected with the plague, and before we could arrive, she had already fallen ill and died. Sensing that Gu Feiyan's tone was not quite right, Ming Xuanze hurriedly changed his words.
"That's right......"
The guilt in Gu Feiyan's heart had only decreased a few points, but he didn't expect this plague to be so powerful. In the face of natural and man-made disasters, they are still too vulnerable.
Ming Xuanze took everyone back to Beijing, but it didn't go well along the way.
"Master, the accompanying soldiers are not quite right." Ying first observed the state of the entourage, the soldiers have been depressed and unhappy recently, and their faces have become more and more ugly in the past two days.
"What's going on?"
Ming Xuanze was also aware of it, but he didn't expect the plague to spread so quickly.
"There are a few weak soldiers who have fallen, and the symptoms are similar to the conditions in the city before, what should we do now?"
Ming Xuanze looked at the brothers outside, and his face was also sad, "Let's camp here first, rest here, and tell the brothers not to rush first." Isolate those soldiers who are not in good health as soon as possible to prevent the plague from continuing to spread. ”
"Yes."
"Send the accompanying doctor to diagnose and treat as soon as possible, pay attention to protective measures, and no more accidents." Ming Xuanze sighed deeply, this time it was terrible to lose his wife and soldiers, how could the plague break out at this time......
"Back to the prince, the old body has already been checked, and it is indeed infected with the plague, and the plague is spreading rapidly. The old body could not do anything but hang their lives with the decoction. But ......"
The Imperial Physician lowered his head as he spoke, "But it is undoubtedly just to increase their suffering, and it is impossible to cure them at all." ”
Hearing the imperial doctor say this, Ming Xuanze's heart also cooled half, "I'm afraid it's going to be hard for you this time." No matter what I can do to alleviate their pain, I will find a way. ”
