In the capital in October, the fragrance of cinnamon fills Kyoto.

The white housekeeper Qin Bo hurried through the courtyard and went straight to the main house.

"Old lady, Miss Taixuan has entered the city, and she will be at the house in half an hour."

Bai Yicheng, the old lady of the Bai family, was reading a book while smoking a cigarette pouch, and said: "Let the eldest daughter-in-law take care of her, and then take her to meet the elders of the family after resting." ”

Uncle Qin said with a sad face: "The girl doesn't seem to be very good, the sixth brother asked the old lady to quickly invite the doctor to wait in the house." ”

"What? Still sick yet? ”

After receiving people from Jinling, the Bai family received news that Ye Taixuan was unaccustomed to water and soil and fell ill on the way.

Qinbo shook his head: "I can't drink the medicine anymore, and I have very little time to wake up, so I'm afraid it won't work......

The old lady of the Bai family dropped the pipe in her hand in shock, and chopped her foot angrily: "Quickly take my name card to the Tai Hospital!" ”

Since leaving Jinling, Ye Taixuan has been ill, and the Bai family's cars and horses have stopped and stopped, and it took a month and a half to enter Beijing all the way.

And she drank the medicine all the way, but she didn't get better, but she got sicker and sicker, and when she arrived in the capital, she couldn't get out of bed.

Bai Fu was in a mess in an instant.

Originally, when I heard that Concubine Wen's orphan had been found, everyone was very happy, but if the person was lost in the hands of the Bai family, they would not be able to explain it to the emperor!

Qu Muge was sent to the Bai Mansion in a coma, and in the Bai Yutang that was specially packed for her, the servants and Lang Zhong went in and out, and it was not until late at night that the three imperial doctors dared to make a conclusion and said to the Bai family master: "The girl is poisoned......

Bai Yicheng, the master of the Bai family, grabbed his cane and asked, "Can you still be saved?" ”

The head of the hospital was embarrassed: "It's hard to say...... The toxin is too complex and needs to be tried one by one to determine the antidote......"

On Xiangshan, outside the Tianyin Pavilion Capital Branch, a group of people wearing black cloaks jumped off their fast horses and walked towards Tianyin Pavilion in a quick and orderly manner.

Gu Nanye's haze-covered face was shrouded in the shadow of the cloak, and only the straight lip line could be seen.

He only received a report from Fan Washui a week ago, saying that Ye Taixuan was suspected of poisoning and his condition had deteriorated rapidly, and asked him to decide what to do.

Even if Gu Nanye left for the capital, he happened to arrive in Beijing at the same time as the Bai family's convoy today.

He glanced at the little girl sleeping in the carriage outside the city gate, but he had not seen her for a month, and her face was so thin that there was no trace of flesh, and her face was even more gray as earth.

Xu Baoru didn't dare to make a sound behind him, from the city gate to Xiangshan, Gu Nanye didn't say a word, this was a manifestation of his anger.

Fan Washui, who rushed from Baifu, knelt down in front of Gu Nanye and pleaded: "Miss Taixuan has been sent to Baifu and is now being treated by the Taiyi. Failing to protect the girl is the negligence of his subordinates, please punish Master Hou! ”

Gu Nanye said coldly: "Negligence? For more than a month along the way, you didn't report to me until the end, why did you neglect to do so? ”

Fan wading in the water has a bitter word.

At first, he and Bai Yuanhui thought that Ye Taixuan was motion sickness, or that he was not accustomed to the water and soil, and even Ye Taixuan himself thought so, and he was not allowed to tell Gu Nanye.

At that time, Ye Taixuan said with a sad expression: "Since I have left the Gu family, I have nothing to do with the Hou Ye, do you even want him to know about my motion sickness?" You tell him that I want to play along the way, and the convoy is going slower. ”

Fan Washui knew that Ye Taixuan and Gu Nanye had a quarrel before parting, and as a subordinate, it was inconvenient for him to intervene in this matter, and it was inconvenient to talk too much, so he hid it according to Ye Taixuan's intentions.

Who would have thought it would be like this?

Xu Baoru and Fan have been brothers for many years, and they guessed that there must be a hidden secret, but this matter was not easy to plead, so he had to knock on the side and say: "Commander Fan should be punished for dereliction of duty, but at the moment, the girl's life is the most important, we lack manpower in the capital, it is better to let Commander Fan wear the crime to do the errand, and when the matter is over, it will not be too late for the Hou Ye to punish him." ”

Gu Nanye naturally didn't come here to ask the teacher for sin.

He did not speak, but he had already picked up his pen and began to write.

Soon, he handed over the token and letter to Fan Washui and said: "Send the secret letter to the palace and hand it over to the emperor in person, if there is any more bad pool, come and see you!" ”

"Yes!" Fan Washui, as the commander of Gu Nanye's personal soldiers, has entered the palace many times to deliver emergency reports.

After he left, Gu Nanye instructed Xu Baoru again: "Go and bring Wei Dexian here." ”

The people under the concubine made good use of poison, all thanks to the teachings of Gonggong Wei.

If Ye Taixuan's poison was sent by Zuo Guifei, then Father-in-law Wei would be able to cure the poison.

Xu Baoru said worriedly: "Concubine Zuo had a lot of opportunities to do it on the way to Beijing, but she chose to poison her, obviously deliberately luring Wei Dexian out, we can't be fooled." ”

Gu Nanye insisted: "Go and bring someone over." ”

It was not the Bai family who escorted Gonggong Wei into Beijing, nor was he from Gu Nanye's army, but was secretly taken to Tianyin Pavilion in the capital by Song Xiyuan in the theater early in the morning.

When Song Xiyuan personally brought people over, he also said to Gu Nanye: "There are not many guards in Tianyin Pavilion, if someone finds out that Wei Dexian is here, we can't protect him." He is a key witness, if something goes wrong, it will be difficult to bring down Zuo Guifei. ”

Gu Nanye shook his head and said, "It's okay." ”

Anyway, after tonight, it's useless for Wei Dexian to keep it.

In the evening, Fan Washui came back with the emperor's secret letter, and he invited the emperor to have a secret meeting at the Bai family, and the emperor agreed.

Gu Nanye read the reply letter and personally carried Wei Dexian to the Bai family.

Before leaving, Song Xiyuan worriedly dissuaded: "Master Hou, how can you bet everything on the emperor?" If the emperor doesn't believe you and thinks that you are fighting for your henchmen, your life is in danger! You can't be so risky! ”

Gu Nanye put on his cloak and said: "Song Qi, the only risk I shouldn't take is to send Ye Taixuan back to Beijing early, we have already lost one step to Zuo Guifei in this matter, if we can't protect Taixuan, we really let Zuo Guifei do whatever she wants." Now that the emperor is willing to see me, he believes in me, and you don't need to worry. ”

Bai Yuanhui had already received notices from both sides of the palace and Gu Nanye, and had arranged for the people of the Bai Mansion to avoid it early and clean up all the roads leading from the back door to Bai Yutang.

Gu Nanye carried Wei Dexian into the Bai Mansion, and Bai Yuan went back to greet him and led him to Bai Yutang.

Gu Nanye asked on the way, "How is Taixuan's condition?" ”

Bai Yuan shook his head back and said, "The Imperial Doctor tried a few doses of medicine, but it didn't get better after feeding it. ”

Gu Nanye didn't ask any more questions, and carried Wei Dexian to speed up.

When he walked to Bai Yutang's sickbed, he pressed Wei Dexian, who was bound hand and foot and gagged, to the side of the bed, and said, "Whether your son survives or not depends on your performance tonight." ”

Wei Dexian was a doctor in the Tai Hospital in his early years, and he accompanied Concubine Wen to give birth in Jinling, but he was punished by the palace because of Concubine Wen's death before becoming a eunuch.
