Chapter 88: That Woman Is Not Simple
When Jian Xiu came out of the palace, his face was heavy. After getting on the horse and returning to Beizhen, Du Fusi explained a few words, and then urged the horse again to hurry back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
On the way home, his mind kept floating with what the emperor had told him.
Jian Xiu, you personally went to Jiangnan to take Miss Liu back to Beijing, this time you went to Runze Villa in the name of picking up Miss Liu, and secretly found the death-free gold medal that Emperor Zhengde gave to the Runjia back then, and you want to get it back quietly.
To be quiet is to steal it back.
How could Jian Xiu not understand after hearing this.
Such a difficult task, what kind of place is Runze Villa, how can Jian Xiu not understand. At that time, Emperor Zhengde personally gave the Runjia a death-free gold medal, and at this time, the emperor was afraid that the Runjia would come out with this death-free gold medal in the future. The emperor wanted to come up with a gold medal for avoiding death, but he was afraid of causing gossip and disrespected the golden words of Emperor Zhengde when he was alive, so he came out like this.
But the secret decree issued by the emperor, how could he not obey, even if he went to Jiangnan this time, and entered the Runze Villa is the wolf's pool and tiger's den, he had to follow. He is the official of the imperial court, a brocade guard, and obeys all the orders of the emperor.
With a heavy heart, he returned to his courtyard, changed into a robe, and went to inform his mother Gu.
Jian Xiu went to pick up Yi'er, and Gu Shi also put a hundred hearts in his heart, and explained with concern, "You must bring Ji'er back safely." β
"Don't worry, mother, the child will set off here." Jian Xiu bowed to the Gu family and left with a calm expression.
Walking out of his mother's yard, Yun Xiu heard that Jian Xiu was going to pick up someone and was already waiting in the courtyard.
"The fourth brother went to Yangzhou to pick up memories, and I will go with you." Yun Xiu said very seriously.
Thinking of the task that the emperor gave him, there would be more danger if he went alone, Jian Xiu replied to him calmly, "No, I'll just go alone." β
Yun Xiu didn't know that the emperor also gave the fourth brother a secret mission, and thought that the fourth brother just wanted to show his care in front of Ji'er and refused to go with him.
Yun Xiu felt a little cold in his heart, and his eyes sank.
Jian Xiu brushed his side and walked away, not wanting to waste any more time.
Yun Xiu ignored the fourth brother leaving, and had thousands of doubts in his heart, and even wanted to say, "I won't fight with you, fourth brother, why do you have to refuse me to be good to Yi'er like this." β
frowned, he still followed closely to the gate of the mansion, watched the fourth brother get on the horse and leave, and wanted to say, "Fourth brother, you must bring Ji'er back safely." However, he felt that this sentence was superfluous, and watched the back of the fourth brother leave, and he didn't open his mouth to say anything again.
was at the door of the mansion like this, and it wasn't until Jian Xiu left that he came back to his senses in a trance, and was about to walk back to the mansion when the sound of horses and tellurium came from the door. Ling Xinan urged the horse to come, and asked with a deep and anxious expression, "Where is Ji'er?" β
Yun Xiu hesitated slightly, but still replied to him, "In Yangzhou Runze Villa, my fourth brother has already gone to pick him up." β
Ling Xinan frowned, turned his horse's head and rode away, his direction was the direction in which Jian Xiu was going.
Yun Xiu hurriedly walked down the steps, trying to stop Ling Xinan, but his figure had already disappeared in front of him.
Yun Xiu put his hands on his waist and smiled, smiling stunned.
Really, except for themselves, they are all like this.

Runze Villa, Mengxin Xiaozhu.
Runzeyu's face was uncertain, and she kept frowning and worrying about the sleeping woman on the bed.
He had been waiting by the bedside since last night and had not left a step, and his face looked a little haggard because he had not slept all night.
After last night's doctor's treatment, the woman's injuries have temporarily stabilized, but she has been in a coma, which is worrying.
At the door, the maid walked in with a tray.
"Young master, the medicine is boiled." Huaqiao waited behind him with a tray and said politely.
"Put it down, get out." Runze Yu said coldly.
Hanaqiao obediently put down the tray and walked out lightly for fear of being disturbed.
Runzeyu personally picked up the medicine bowl and wanted to feed the woman some medicine, but the woman still showed no signs of waking up.
What to do?
Runzeyu's lips pursed, and he thought of that method in his heart, looked at the decoction in the bowl in his hand, took his mouth, and was about to feed it to the woman's mouth with his mouth, but at this time, the woman moved her eyelashes and opened her eyes slightly.
He panicked, and the mouthful of decoction in his mouth was swallowed by himself. The medicine bowl in his hand also made him quickly put it down, and happily leaned to the edge of her bed.
"Yi'er, it's good if you're awake."
Liu Piaoyi looked like he was fine, pursed his lips and smiled faintly, "I'm fine." β
She remembered, and he busily caressed her against the head of the bed, folding the pillows behind her back.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault, I didn't expect Lan Jixiu to do such a thing, I've already imprisoned her."
He frowned and apologized, as if it was all his fault.
Outside the window, there was a sudden thunderstorm, Liu Piao looked at it and sighed faintly, "Lan Jixiu is just very affectionate to you, no wonder she, my arrival made her misunderstood, I should explain to her, I have nothing to do with you." β
He frowned, wanting to say, it's not unrelated, but he didn't open his mouth to say it, for fear of scaring her away, and didn't want to stay.
"Lan Jixiu's person is so little and jealous, you don't have to pay attention to her, and you don't need to explain anything to her." Runzeyu smiled warmly, hiding her emotions.
Liu Piao's face was haggard, and his eyes were cold, so he looked at him quietly.
The two looked at each other, and he always felt like she was exploring herself. He hurriedly picked up the medicine bowl and said, "The medicine has just been decocted, and the wound will heal quickly after drinking it." β
He picked up a spoon and scooped a spoonful of medicinal soup to her mouth.
"I'll come by myself, you are the young master, how can I trouble you." Liu Piaoyi raised his hand and wanted to take the bowl himself.
Runzeyu didn't let her take it, and Zhengse said, "You are still so weak, how can you drink it yourself, I'll feed you." β
He skimmed the bowl and didn't let her take it.
Outside the window, the wind and cold rain were intertwined, Liu Piaoyi looked at it again, and no longer refused, and let him feed the medicine.
It was very quiet inside, and only the sound of wind and rain outside could be heard.
He fed the medicine quietly, and she slowly drank it one bite at a time.
After drinking the medicine, Liu Piaoyi smiled faintly at him and said, "I want to sleep again." β
"Okay." He pursed his lips and whispered to her, covered her with the quilt, and watched her close her eyes before he got up.
He stepped out and closed the door by the way. Rong Xian was already waiting under the porch at the door, with an umbrella in his hand.
Listening to the sound of Runzeyu leaving, Liu Piaoyi opened his eyes again. She thought of last night in a daze, when she heard an old mellow voice talking to Runzeyu.
The man was supposed to be the old farmer, and he said, "Yu'er, this woman can't die, and even if she dies, she has to survive until the full moon." β
Runzeyu replied to him, "Grandpa, Yu'er Jue won't let her die, not for me, not for the Runjia, but because of her, I want her to live well." β
In a daze, she didn't hear it very clearly, but she remembered these two sentences clearly.
At this time, I was very puzzled why Runzeyu's grandfather, Runlao, had to live until the full moon. What does Runzeyu's sentence "not for me, nor for Runjia" mean?
The pain in her chest made her not think much more, and in a daze, she fell asleep again.
Rong Xian opened the door of the room where Lan Jixiu was being held, and Runzeyu walked in indifferently.
In the room, Lan Jixiu lay on the table in a trance and fell asleep from exhaustion due to the non-stop noise all night.
The sound of the door opening made Lan Jixiu wake up, and when she raised her head and saw Runzeyu's cold face, her heart was slightly cold, but she still wanted to defend herself as much as she could.
She ran over, grabbed Runzeyu's wrist, and said in a dumb voice with a bitter face, "Brother Yu, you listen to my explanation, Xiu'er didn't want to kill her, last night, last night, she herself stabbed the dagger into her chest, really, Xiu'er didn't lie to you." β
Runzeyu shook her hand, shook her hand away again, looked at her coldly, and said expressionlessly, "You are still quibbling, it's not you who took the dagger to kill her!" What I saw with my own eyes, is there still a fake? β
Lan Jixiu glared, "Brother Yu, you only see one of them, you don't know everything, that woman almost killed me last night." As she spoke, she raised her neck and let the red mark on her neck still linger for Runzeyu to see.
"She pinched Xiu'er's neck, if it weren't for Brother Yu, you came, Xiu'er would have almost died in her hands, that woman is not simple."
Runzeyu saw the marks on her neck, but how could he believe that Ji'er would really kill people and have so much strength.
He snorted coldly, "Even if Ji'er really pinched your neck, it's your fault, if it weren't for Huaqiao reporting to me and seeing you go to Mengxin Xiaozhu, if I hadn't seen that the arrow shot in the racecourse was done by you, if I hadn't rushed to Mengxin Xiaozhu, you would have killed Ji'er." Didn't you bring the dagger, or did you stab it in the chest? You're still quibbling. β
Lan Jixiu looked at Runze Yufei with a proud smile and looked at his unwavering expression, she admitted that the shock in her heart was not small.
"Brother Yu, don't you believe in Xiu'er like that?"
"Is Xiu'er really so slight in your heart?"
A self-deprecating smile tugged at the corners of her mouth.
"Yesterday at the racecourse, Xiu'er was just scaring and scaring the woman, and didn't really want her to die. It was the same last night, Xiu'er just wanted that woman to leave your side, and never thought of killing her. β
Tears rolled down her eyes, still staring at him with her head held high.
"Xiu'er and Brother Yu grew up together, Brother Yu didn't believe in Xiu'er at all, for a woman he just knew, where did Brother Yu put Xiu'er?"
Runzeyu was softened by her pear blossom rain, and her face was slightly soft.
"Xiu'er, you go back, go back to Jinling, I will come to Runze Villa less in the future, and I won't care about it this time." After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked out without a trace of affection, regardless of how the woman behind him cried.
"Runze Jadeβ" The woman behind her let out a long whistle, but his footsteps did not pause, and he still left mercilessly.
Lan Jixiu spread his hands and flipped the teapot and teacup on the table to the ground, clattering and shattering to the ground. And this woman was so undaunted, she willfully fell on the slag, and let her knees hit the porcelain slag.
"Ahh An exclamation came.
Runzeyu, who had already walked out of the door to the courtyard, was still stunned when he heard the call.
Rong Xian, who was holding an umbrella, looked at his face and said in a low voice, "Young Master, let's go and see Miss Lan, she seems to have fallen." β
