Wan Bingyu only felt a pain and itch in his throat, he sweated all night last night, and now he is a little dehydrated, squinting his eyes and saying, "I want to drink water......

"Water?" Min Yue hurriedly shouted to the maid behind her, "Quick! Pour water! ”

After a while, a maid walked over briskly with a glass of water, she carefully picked up Wan Bingyu, poured the water into it little by little with a spoon, and the chapped lips were slowly moisturized, and the body seemed to be re-injected with vitality, and the spirit was much better, but when she raised her arm slightly, there would still be a tearing pain.

"Sister Bingyu, don't move, you have an injury on your arm, and the imperial doctor said that you have to cultivate for a month." Min Yue carefully helped her sit up, and took two cushions under her waist, knowing that Min Yue was a royal princess, I didn't know that I thought she was Wan Bingyu's maid, and she did her best and was meticulous.

Wan Bingyu was surprised, but also looked at his wound, it was okay not to look at it, but he was almost stunned when he saw it, such a big burn! Even the belt meat, even if it is good, it will definitely leave a particularly ugly scar, and there is no plastic surgery in these years, and there is no scar removal medicine, which affects my beauty too much.

As soon as she thought of this, she hated it in her heart, those people simply wanted to kill herself!

"What about Xinyuan?" She looked around the house, but she didn't see Heng Xinyuan's figure, she was so seriously injured, he didn't guard by her side, where did he go.

Min Yue explained, "Brother Xinyuan has left Beijing for something, so you can heal with me during this time." ”

Leaving Beijing? What was he doing when he left Beijing at this time?

Wan Bingyu suddenly remembered that he told himself yesterday that after Chinese New Year's Eve, he would go to Junnan Mansion to inquire about the drought, but he didn't expect to leave so suddenly, and he didn't even wait for himself to wake up and left, could it be that something big happened.

"Did he say anything before he left?"

"He said let me take good care of you! Let you take good care of your body and don't run around! Min Yue blinked and looked at her with big eyes, "So, you must not run around, otherwise when Brother Xinyuan comes back, I will see that your wound is not healed, and I will criticize my ......"

Wan Bingyu's cheeks flushed, and he also persuaded himself in his heart that he would not be okay if he just went to Junnan Mansion.

The two of them were talking and laughing with each other, when a little eunuch suddenly walked in and said to them, "Princess Hui, the eunuch who had trouble last night just committed suicide in prison......

"What? Suicide! Min Yue shouted in surprise, "Why?" Didn't my father say that he wanted people to investigate, why was it so sudden? ”

"This slave doesn't know, the guards in the prison just now went to report to the emperor, saying that they went in to deliver food, and found that the person had bitten off his tongue and committed suicide......"

Suddenly, a chill swept over, even Wan Bingyu, who was covered in the quilt, didn't feel a cold sweat in her palms, and her heart beat suddenly, she had no intention of being involved in a war, even if this eunuch really used his hands and feet to hurt his innocent people, then he must have been instructed by others.

Now in order to protect his master, he has to lose another life.

The battle for the throne is really a war without gunsmoke, but it is tragic.

On the other side, after Heng Xinyuan transferred to a fast horse, it took two days to reach the border of Junnan Province.

As soon as you enter a small village on the border, a sense of desolation and depression rushes over you, and although it has snowed heavily in Kyoto, the land is still cracked and barren, the trees on both sides of the road are bare, not even a single leaf is dead, the wild vegetables on the ground have been dug up, and the bark of several trees has been stripped off.

He led the horse into the village, and wanted to stay in a house to understand the situation, but knocked on the doors of several households one after another, but there was no response, and the whole village was like an uninhabited village, without a little anger.

He walked to the end of the village, and at last saw a house that had not been closed, and walked in cautiously, shouting softly, "Is there anyone?" Is anyone there, please? ”

There was no sound, except for a scrawny cat barking under the roots of the tree, and a pair of eyes full of pus, which could not be opened.

"Is there anyone...... "He shouted again at the window, and finally, this time, through the crack in the window, he heard someone snort inside, very lowly, he pushed open the door and walked in, the sight before him made him dumbfounded, the dark room, everywhere exuded a musty smell, the air revealed a cold feeling, the pot stove seemed to have not been heated for hundreds of years, and there were several ladybug corpses floating in a bowl of wild vegetable soup on the table.

He covered his nose and walked inside, and suddenly saw an old man with gray hair lying on the broken bed in the back room, his teeth had almost fallen out, and the most terrifying thing for him was that this old man had no flesh and blood at all, a piece of skin sparsely attached to the bones, his eyes stared at the roof abruptly, and he was only moaning with a breath.

"Uncle, uncle, what's wrong with you?" Heng Xinyuan hurriedly leaned into his ear and asked.

The old man tilted his head to look at him, and seemed to mumble something that he didn't understand.

But looking at the situation at home, he was eighty percent of the result of hunger, so he quickly took out a steamed bun from his baggage, gently broke it, and put it in his mouth, but he didn't even have the strength to chew, and he was breathing hard with his mouth open.

Suddenly, the gate in the courtyard was pushed open, and a woman in a rag shirt walked in with a bowl of steaming water, and called, "Uncle Wang......"

As a result, when I looked up, I saw Heng Xinyuan sitting on the edge of the bed, with a vigilant face, "Who are you?" How did you end up in Uncle Wang's house? ”

He quickly stood up and said hello, "Oh, I was passing by and wanted to spend the night, but I saw my uncle lying here alone...... What a disturbance......

"Passing by?" The woman was a little suspicious and looked him up and down, "How did you come to our village?" Where are you going? ”

Heng Xinyuan replied with a kind smile, "I want to go to Junnan Mansion." ”

When the woman heard this, she hurriedly waved her hand, and her face turned white, "Junnan Mansion? You still don't want to go, now that the people over there are trying to run out, how can anyone still want to go in? ”

"Running out? Why? Heng Xinyuan asked.

"Don't you know? There is a drought in Junnan Mansion, the people are not happy, the people there are starving to death, fleeing the famine, the son of Uncle Wang, he fled the famine a few days ago, and threw an old man at home, if we don't often help, where can you live until now, you still don't go. ”

The woman sighed, wiped a broken iron spoon on her clothes, scooped some water into the old man's mouth, he sighed twice, swallowed, and continued to open his mouth and pant weakly.

"Hey. I guess I won't be able to live today......" After the woman fed Qing Shui, her eyes were a little red, as if she was sorry for a life that was about to die, and she raised her head and looked at Heng Xinyuan for a while, "Young man, I see that you are also neatly dressed, are you going to Junnan County to find relatives?" ”

"Oh, no, I just wanted to do a small business...... Heng Xinyuan casually broke up a reason.

The woman nodded suspiciously, "Hey, you don't have to go, just look at what we are doing here, our village is only a few dozen miles away from Junnan County, and it has been exhausted, but fortunately, there are still a few mountains around, and there are still some wild vegetables to eat on the mountains...... Don't starve to death too soon......"

Heng Xinyuan hurriedly handed her a steamed bun in his hand, "I still have a dry food here, you can eat it, you can satisfy your hunger." ”

As soon as the woman saw the white-flour steamed bun in his hand, her eyes were radiating green light, and she took it, devoured half of it in a few bites, and whimpered as she ate, "Thank you, good Samaritan, I haven't eaten such delicious steamed buns for many days!" Thank you so much! ”

"Eat slowly...... Don't choke......" Heng Xinyuan looked at her and felt a little sad in his heart.

The woman only ate half of it and put the remaining half in her pocket, but Heng Xinyuan could see that she was not full, even if she gave her three more, she would be able to finish eating.
