Chapter 11: Night Break
Nanling Mo wore the mask given by her brother and went to Rongjin Hall to visit the old princess back to visit the prince, Jiang Lao Taijun saw this mask and was stunned for a moment, Nanling Mo took off the mask and said with a smile: "Grandmother, this is a gift from my eldest brother to me~"
Old Taijun Jiang saw the red spider web birthmark in the corner of her left eye, took Nan Lingmo's hand to sit down beside her, touched her face and sighed softly: "It's November soon, and I received a letter from your father today saying that I will be in the capital in 15 days." Your father will be able to catch up with your courtesy. After a while, the Zhang family came over, and the grandmother told her to prepare to go down and handle your ceremony properly. ”
"Grandmother, granddaughter thinks about the death of Queen Wushuang, according to the etiquette system, hundreds of officials are filial piety on the 27th, and the people are not allowed to marry and hold a banquet in March...... In the past, the granddaughter was not sensible, but now the granddaughter is now grown up and knows our palace......"
Nanling Mo leaned close to the old lady and said, "Grandmother, Mo'er left home to keep filial piety for her mother for three years, and she failed to serve her filial piety by your side, is it Mo'er's; And when Mo'er returned home, her grandmother was helping Mo'er openly and secretly, and Mo'er was young, so she had to do more filial piety for her father......"
Mrs. Jiang was moved in her heart, and said in her heart, "This is the child of the grandmother, not like Mei'er, who doesn't know the general situation, and only cares about being small and low, and can't tell the situation." This child has only been back for less than a month and can feel the difficulties of our palace, but this is the marriage contract with King Yun...... Alas, what a miserable child. Thinking like this, he felt even more pity for Nanling Mo: "I heard that you manage your yard well, you kid is really smart......
Nanling Mo didn't seem to feel the old princess's emotions, tilted her head and said coquettishly: "It's not all taught by grandmother well, otherwise Mo'er must have made a lot of jokes!" ”
"Grandmother, Mo'er went out a few days ago to order a set of gold needles, and my grandfather once said that compared with silver needles, the effect of gold needles is better! Mo'er thought that her grandmother's waist and leg cold were not only applied with plasters, but also taken with decoction, and if she applied acupuncture and massage, her grandmother would get better faster! After the golden needle is completed, Mo'er will come to serve her grandmother every day/day/day, grandmother can't think of Mo'er arguing with you, not to mention that grandmother's meal can make Mo'er greedy! ”
"Hahahaha, you girl, you old man sees that you are hungry for my meal, so you can save the cost of your yard, right?!" Mrs. Jiang deliberately poked Nan Lingmo's forehead with her hand and said.
"Oh, grandmother, how can you say what Mo'er thinks directly......" Nanling Mo stomped her foot and said in mock shame.
"Hahahahaha", Rong Jintang heard the laughter of Mrs. Jiang again...... Nan Ling Mo accompanied the old lady to talk for a while, and the old lady Jiang said that she was tired, and Nan Ling Mo went back to her yard and continued to work in the medicine house.
That night, Nan Lingmo studied the "Poison Sutra" for a while, and understood a little, but still felt that it was too difficult to read through. At this time, Mei Xi came in and said: "County Lord, the pills you want are ready, you don't like to drink decoction, this pill is much more bitter than decoction." ”
"It's okay, you can go and help me prepare a hot medicated bath!"
Nanling Mo soaked in the medicated bath bucket and took the pills, and suddenly felt that her whole body hurt like fire, only to see her sweating profusely, the green tendons on her head and neck burst out, and her face was like red blood...... A quarter of an hour later, Nan Lingmo's complexion returned to normal.
"County Lord, you have to do this for two whole months, but it hurts you......" Mei Xi said distressedly.
Nan Lingmo shook her head and didn't speak, just lay down and went to bed silently.
"Who !!?" Nan Lingmo suddenly opened his eyes, and quickly pulled out a dagger from under the pillow and was about to press it against the man's chest, but he was still a little late, and his neck was already pinched by the black-clothed masked man.
"Heh, good response." The man in black chuckled and threatened in a low voice, "Don't make a sound, or I'll kill you!" ”
Nan Lingmo said calmly: "Who are you, do you know what kind of place this is, and dare to trespass!" Aren't you afraid that the lord of this county will kill you?! ”
The man didn't speak, the force in his hand suddenly became lighter, Nanling Mo wondered in his heart and pushed him with his hand, smelled a trace of blood, felt the warmth on his hand, and looked at it at a glance, it was actually blood, and the man in black actually fainted. At this time, there was a noise outside the courtyard, Nan Lingmo hurriedly pressed the mechanism on the bed, hid the man in black in the bed box, and hurriedly broke the teacup on the side of the bed, and slashed his right hand. Oops, how did you scratch your hand......"
"I woke up thirsty, I wanted tea, I didn't want to break the tea. Mama Qian, this is not a big deal, what is the matter with the third uncle? ”
"The commander of the patrol battalion said that the treasures of the Zuo Xiangfu were stolen, and the people of the Zuo Xiangfu reported to the patrol battalion, and when the patrol battalion night guards chased the assassins, they found that the direction of the assassin's escape was the inner courtyard of our palace...... Therefore, I wanted to enter the palace to search, because it involved the palace, and it was not easy to break in, so I asked the third master to follow together. ”
"Presumptuous, how can they search the South Wangfu of my town when they say they will search it!" Nan Lingmo scolded angrily.
"Now the prince has been alarmed, it is a matter of peace in the inner courtyard, the prince said that this matter should not alarm the ancestors, the prince accompanied the commander of the patrol battalion and the third master to come to you."
"Then let them in!" Mama Qian put on a cloak for Nanling Mo, and asked Mei Xilai to bandage the wounds of the county lord, so she invited someone to the courtyard.
"Xia Fei, the commander of the patrol battalion, has seen the county lord." Xia Fei, the commander of the patrol battalion, clasped his fists and saluted. Nanling Mo didn't look at him either, and said to Nan Yue and Nanling Xiao, the deputy commanders of the patrol battalion who were accompanying him: "Third uncle, big brother." ”
"County Lord, Zuo Xiang's Mansion has lost its treasures......" Xia Fei, the commander of the patrol battalion, returned to the reason and was interrupted by Nanling Mo: "Commander Xia, the county lord of your duty is not embarrassed by you, but my Zhennan Wangfu is a search that you just say you will search?!" The inner courtyard of the palace is mostly female dependents, the eldest sister and younger sister of the county lord are not married, the old princess is old, and the side concubines are all the daughters of the prince, are you afraid of colliding with the troops into the palace like this? Or do you think that my Zhennan Wangfu is a soft persimmon, you are so casual to take it?! ”
Nanling Mo's eyes stood up, and the temperament of his whole body made Xia Fei and Nanyue feel terrified, and Xia Fei said stiffly: "County Lord, the last general is the duty......
"I'm afraid it's not the duty, it's to curry favor with the left minister!" Nanling Mo said coldly, "What kind of thing is his Zuo Xiangfu, if he loses any broken treasures, he will lose them, and he dares to disturb my Zhennan Wangfu!" You still want to search the inner courtyard of the royal palace, what, does Commander Xia think that my Zhennan royal mansion is full of dead people? Today, the county lord will put the words here, the county lord can allow you to search, but if the search is fruitless, tomorrow morning the county lord will take the ancestor's dragon head crutches into the palace to sue the emperor, you Xia Fei has no one in his eyes and Zuo Xiang Xie Tian privately conferred on it, in order to please Zuo Xiang and collide with my Zhennan Wangfu, disturbing the peace of the inner courtyard of the palace, the old lady and the prince are already unwell, after you search, the more sick you can't get up! ”
Xia Fei stiffened his head and said with a stiff neck: "County Lord, the last general will never dare to have this thought, the last general is really just a duty...... I hope the county lord will understand. ”
"What, does Commander Xia think that the guards of my Zhennan Wangfu are all decorations? Not to mention that a big living person enters the palace in the middle of the night, even a bird flying into the palace in the middle of the night will be caught! Nanling Xiao suddenly said lukewarmly.
"Third uncle, you are not an outsider, you also know how to guard my Zhennan Wangfu, Commander Xia is not clear, you can explain to him!" Nanling Mo sneered.
Nanyue nodded to Xia Fei with a smile, Xia Fei hesitated for a while, and said with difficulty: "Since the prince and the county lord have bluntly said that the king of Zhennan is heavily guarded, and it is impossible for an assassin to break in, then the last general will go back, but the last general will present this matter to the saint tomorrow, and the saint will cut it over." Xia Fei also raised the saint by the neck to suppress Nanling Mo.
Who knew that everyone in Zhennan Wangfu didn't care at all, "The night is deep and heavy, and Commander Xia walks slowly." Nanling Xiao said coldly.
"Big brother, you haven't healed from the cold, let's go back quickly, the cold dew and frost are heavy, if you get sick tomorrow, the ancestor has always been most worried about your body, and after knowing it, it is estimated that you will have to go into the palace with a dragon head cane to find Your Majesty's theory!" Nanling looked at Xia Fei and Nanyue with a smile.
"The prince, the lord of the county, will be disturbed in the middle of the night, and please forgive me. The last will be retired. Xia Fei reluctantly led a few South Vietnamese soldiers out of the courtyard and walked out of the house. Before leaving, Nanyue took a deep look at Nanling Mo, and then left.
"Sister, it's not too early, you rest early, and go back for your brother." Nanling Xiao looked at Nanling Mo appreciatively, blinked, and left Lingmo Courtyard.
"Mama Qian, it's not early, you all have to rest!" Nan Lingmo dismissed everyone and closed the door to signal that he was going to sleep.
Nan Lingmo walked quickly to the side of the bed, pressed the button, and found that the man had woken up, his face was pale, and his lips were pale. Nan Ling Mo used all her strength to pull the person out, and directly started to untie his clothes, the man suddenly grabbed her neck, Nan Ling Mo said coldly, "If you don't want to die of excessive blood loss, you can strangle me." You must have heard what happened just now, if you want to die outside, the county lord will never take care of it, and the county lord doesn't want to ask more about your affairs, but now you can't die in my Zhennan Wangfu, so as not to dirty the boundary of my Zhennan Wangfu! After taking the medicine, you love to die, this county lord is not interested in caring about you! ”
The masked man let go of his hand, and Nanling gave him medicine to stop the bleeding. Seeing the wound, Nan Lingmo gasped and said in his heart, "This wound is really a coincidence, if it is one inch deeper, he will definitely die." ’
Half an hour later, Nanling Mo said coldly: "Okay, let's go!" The man replied: "I can't leave now, the patrol battalion came in to search without success, Xia Fei must have left nails outside the house, and I will leave when the nails are the most sleepy." ”
"Whitney? There are nearly three hours left, and you are not going to stay in the lord's house! ”
"Hmph, there's a lot of nonsense, don't shut up and sleep! Otherwise, I'll kill you!" After saying this, the man closed his eyes and fell asleep. Nan Lingmo couldn't, so she had to huddle on the side of the bed with her back to the man in black and sleep with her eyes closed.
When her even breathing sounded, the man in black opened his eyes, and his lips under the mask went up, revealing a smile.
