Chapter 312: Bai Zhi's Death (3)
She swept over the items with heavy eyes, and suddenly saw a rosewood brocade box next to her, which looked a little strange. I picked it up and looked at it, only to see that under the brocade box, there was a thumb-deep gap, and there were some dry and yellowish marks around it.
He Xi touched it carefully and said, "It's fish maw glue-"
Baozhu also came up and looked at it: "It is indeed fish maw glue, the slave and maid's father and brother are craftsmen, so the slave and maid know some of it, but even if the fish maw glue is used, how to apply it on the outside, the palace is full of craftsmen, it is too careless." ”
He Xi shook his head, pointed to the trace, and said, "No, it's not smeared on the outside, but there was something stained here." ”
Orb said curiously; "But such a little fish maw glue, even if it is stained, it will fall off, experienced craftsmen are all combined with dark tenon and fish maw glue to prevent it from falling off, there is no mortise around this at all-" Something flashed in He Xi's mind, and suddenly said in a deep voice: "What if that person wants it to fall off?" Something will fall out with it—"
Bai Zhi snatched this thing, and said with a little shortness of breath: "Where did this come from, Baozhu, where did this come from?" ”
Baozhu was grabbed by her clothes, and said in a panic: "This is - this is before the incident, Jing Guiren sent it, the little master helped Jing Guiren find the earrings, Jing Guiren sent something over, you have also seen it, and the slave maid put it in the warehouse." ”
Bai Zhi muttered, "It's her, it must be her, that letter must be placed here." ”
With such a surge of blood, how could she stand the person who had been sick for a long time, her eyes were dark, and she fainted.
He Xi hurriedly asked Ruyi to ask the doctor, and then he and Baozhu helped the person back to the dormitory, because the person who went this time was Ruyi, the people in the hospital did not dare to offend, and soon, Ruyi brought back a doctor, the doctor helped Bai Zhi diagnose the pulse, and then knelt on the ground with a frightened face and said: "Concubine Xi, the little master's body is already empty, and the minister is really powerless." ”
He Xi sat on the chair and looked at him coldly and said: "This palace really can't imagine that the Tai Hospital can't even heal a small traumatic injury, and it is a loss to boast that they are hanging pots to help the world, but they are worthy of the reputation of this doctor!" ”
The imperial doctor was so panicked that he fell to the ground and shouted that he was wronged, He Xi's heart was cold, and he waved his hand irritably and asked him to retreat.
Baozhu came in with the medicine, helped Bai Zhi to get up, blew the medicine cold and fed it, but at this time, Bai Zhi had already run out of oil and dried up, and most of the medicine that was fed was spilled.
At this time, Ruyi came back and shook his head and said, "Niangniang, I didn't find the fallen rosewood, did we guess wrong?" ”
He Xi shook his head, and before he could speak, he heard the treasure bead shouting hoarsely: "Little master—little master—"
He Xi turned his head suddenly, and saw that Bai Zhi had already vomited out all the medicines that had been fed with great difficulty, and vomited all over his body, and the color gradually turned bright red, which was the color of blood. Ruyi reacted very quickly and said, "I want to come to the imperial doctor and haven't gone far yet, so the slave maid will please." ”
He Xi helped clean up the orb over and over again, and said over and over again: "Go quickly." ”
As soon as her hand touched Dao Baizhi's body, she felt that her body couldn't stop twitching, and her teeth were clenched, but there was still blood overflowing from her mouth, and Baozhu had already panicked and cried uncontrollably. Seeing this, He Xi said to the orb: "Quickly bring the cork, you little master is like this, I'm afraid you will bite your tongue." ”
Baozhu's feet were weak, and she hurriedly pounced on the makeup on the side, rummaging, He Xi felt that Bai Zhi suddenly held her hand, with great strength, her eyes were red bloodshot, staring at He Xi deadly, her chest rose and fell violently, as if she had something to say, but the convulsions of her body made her only let out a beast-like muffled snort.
He Xi's heart was a little touched, and said, "You hold on, the imperial doctor will be here soon, you relax-"
But Bai Zhi didn't react, still clamping He Xi's wrist stiffly, and suddenly, He Xi reacted and said: "If the person who framed you is Jing Guiren, then she must have something to do with the assassin's affairs, even if it is for Lin'er, this palace can't spare her, don't worry-this palace will definitely give you an explanation——"
Before her words fell, He Xi grabbed the strength of her wrist and loosened it little by little, a smile flashed in Bai Zhi's eyes, she believed in He Xi, from the very beginning, she believed that He Xi would definitely live in this palace, because she was too smart, and the most important thing was that there was no love in her eyes.
This is the most precious thing in this palace, if it weren't for the cold He Xi she had seen, maybe she wouldn't have made such a pleasing use.
Perhaps there is one more important reason, perhaps it is not until now that Bai Zhi herself has figured out that He Xi is like a ray of warm light in her heart, kind and frank, like a fairy who jumps out of the red dust, not contaminated with filth, which she can't achieve in her life, she has no way not to calculate and calculate, there is no way not to weigh it, and it is precisely because of this that she prefers to be close to He Xi and close to that kind of character.
Angelica Angelica, recorded in ancient books, has more than one life in the valley of the east river valley, under the forest, beside the stream, by the shrubs and valley meadows, dependent and existing, and likes yin and yin, just like her people, but in her short life, there is a ray of light, which she wants to chase, but everything in the world, maybe some things have already been destined. Her eyes gradually drifted away, and she muttered, "I have both this inner beauty and my cultivation energy. Hu Jiangli and Bi Zhixi, Su Qiulan thought it was admired. If the surplus will not be enough, I am afraid that the years will not be with me. The magnolia of the chaos, and the recklessness of the night. ”
It was Qu Yuan's "Lisao", she thought a lot, she was the Bai Zhi in the Lisao, her voice gradually lowered, and her hand slid down weakly, Baozhu finally found the cork, but when she saw Bai Zhi like this, the cork in her hand took off, she covered her mouth with her hand, not letting herself cry, Bai Zhi had no strength, she could only close the pale lip flap one by one, but in the end, she didn't even have the strength to speak.
The corners of her lips rose slightly, a line of tears slipped from the corners of her eyes, and her hands fell weakly, and she finally went-
Baozhu sat on the ground, crying silently, and when Ruyi came back with the imperial doctor, he pushed open the door and saw this scene, and he had already guessed what was going on.
The imperial doctor walked to Bai Zhi's bed, tried his snort, and then knelt down on the ground with an embarrassed face and said, "Niangniang—Bai promised her—has gone." ”
He Xi sat in front of the collapse, the pearl between her temples cast a dark shadow on her cheeks, and she said in a faint voice: "This palace knows." ”
She took a deep breath, stood up, and said with a sob: "Concubine Xi-slave-slave-"
He Xi said expressionlessly: "Baozhu, change your little master's clothes and freshen up, and this palace will go to the Heart Cultivation Palace to tell Your Majesty - and if you still want to seek justice for your little master, what happened today will rot in your stomach." ”
Baozhu leaned over and kowtowed: "The slave and maid know, even if they die, the slave and maid will not reveal half a word-"
He Xi nodded with satisfaction, this can be regarded as coming out of Chuxiu Palace. I didn't even look at the doctor. The imperial doctor had no choice but to stay in Chuxiu Palace, waiting for someone to come.
When Tuoba Chen heard about Bai Zhi's matter, he just shook his head for a moment, and then said: "Since the people have already gone, let the Internal Affairs Office handle it, by the way, now that Concubine De's birthday is coming, don't make a big deal about it." Fuqing nodded and went down to command. He Xi seemed to have known that the emperor would have such an attitude, he was a cold-hearted person, and poor Bai Zhi wanted to win half a point of favor on him.
She bent her knees slightly and said: "Your Majesty, Bai Cairen's embroidery is outstanding, and she promised to give her concubine a beautiful picture, and the concubine wants to stay, and she has left a memory." ”
The emperor glanced at her and said curiously, "What? The Bai family was involved in Lin'er's affairs, and he calculated against you, and you still tolerated her? He Xi raised his head and looked at Tuoba Chen fixedly: "The former matter has not yet been decided, as for the latter matter, although she calculated the concubine, but her original intention is indeed pitiful, she is sincere to His Majesty, and the concubine really blames her." I hope that Your Majesty will have mercy. ”
Seeing her pitiful appearance, Tuoba Chen got up from the chair with a sigh, took her hand and said: "Okay, the left and right are just an embroidery, if you like it, I will ask the embroidery girls in the palace to embroider a few more pairs, and how about choosing one of your favorites for you?" Why bother to keep her things and get contaminated with bad luck. ”
He Xi shook his head and said: "Your Majesty doesn't know, this picture is embroidered by Bai Promise in the past, when the concubine first entered the palace, His Majesty took care of the concubine in every way, although the back is heavy, but in the heart of the concubine, that period of time is the happiest." ”
Her eyes were full of tenderness, as if she was going to drown Tuoba Chen, Tuoba Chen took her in his arms, stroked her stomach with one hand, and said softly: "I know that you are sad, but the deceased is gone, you and I still have children, you have to take care of yourself, as for the Bai family's affairs, I will answer you." ”
He waved his hand and said, "Immediately sent an edict to the Internal Affairs Office, and said that if you find that beauty in the Bai family's treasury, you will send it to Lingxiu Palace, and you can't slack off." ”
Immediately, a palace person retreated, and Tuoba Chen caressed He Xi's hair with pity, and said, "Okay, you can go back to the palace too, don't be tired of yourself." He Xi nodded very obediently, and after withdrawing from Tuoba Chen's arms, he leaned over lightly and turned to leave.
On the way, Ruyi asked puzzledly: "Niangniang, that beautiful concubine looks at our storehouse, there is also a picture——"
He Xi didn't care, but said in a deep voice: "There is no beauty picture at all, this palace is just using this matter to let people find the person who took the rosewood that day." ”
