145 Gain and loss
Until he returned to the Hou Mansion, Mu Yuan still felt as if he was swinging, a burst of heat and a burst of cold.
He can now be sure that peace is pleasing to him.
This made his heart rejoice, after all, he had been looking forward to this day since he was a teenager.
However, he was a little unsure, because before the death of the first emperor, Ping'an was still cold and indifferent, not estranged but never close.
It's as if it's a stranger.
At that time, she happily chased his third brother every day, and there was no difference between her and the little jasper in Tokyo.
Dajiangguo emphasizes literature over martial arts, and a good-looking talent like the third brother is the most sought after. They are military ministers, and they always hang with the word reckless. This actually made him feel a little inferior, thinking that Ping An would not like him.
I remember that when he was a teenager, he trained in the army incognito, and the old veteran Youzi once told them a lot of meat and vegetarian jokes about these new soldiers, and one of them was quite impressive: The woman's family always has an inexplicable love for the young man who saved her life.
Is that because on the day he returned to Beijing for the funeral, he saved her right away?
It can't be considered a salvation, after all, Ping An was poisoned. It was the spirit of the first emperor in the sky, and the immortal chief she met by chance who saved her, but he just avoided her secondary injury.
If you think about it, Ping An changed his attitude towards him dramatically after that time.
He still remembered that the veteran saved the daughter of a Xiucai family in the war, and the woman married for this reason. But after marriage, he didn't live well, in the end he was not the same kind of people, and he was noisy every day. Later, the veteran was distracted on the battlefield and died, and his wife was separated when the city was broken, and the ending was very bleak.
Will it be the same with peace and him?
Subconsciously, he touched his mouth.
She kissed him so boldly just now, it really scared him.
But the lips were so soft and fragrant that he couldn't wait to chase them, and he clung to them.
It was like scratching his itch, but it was only gently scratched, making him crave deeper. Unfortunately, the feeling drifted away again, and now his heart was even more itchy, and his heart was pounding in his chest.
And that hug!
In his arms, she was so soft, so small, so soft, that he wanted to protect her like this, and he was willing to die!
But does she really like him, or is it because of the grace of saving her life?
He just greeted him like this, or did he have to calm down with each other, lest she regret it in the future?
Otherwise, he didn't care so much, so he would find a way to marry her, and try his best to be good to her in the future, so he shouldn't be resentful, right?
With his military exploits, he made a decisive decision on the battlefield, so that the enemy was terrified, and in Beijing, the girls only dared to peek at his appearance, and his notoriety could stop children crying at night at a critical moment, and the man who worshiped the dignified champion general at such a young age suffered from gains and losses.
However, this was only a moment of leisure, and soon, his scouts came to report on the "military situation". It's only been two days, and those big and small forces in Beijing are all ready to move, and they have their own ways to do something.
Hehe, how nice. He sneered, an epidemic that I don't know if there will be an outbreak has made those jumping clowns appear.
However, the epidemic eventually broke out.
Zhao Ping'an is prepared for this, after all, arresting a thief or something can't stand scrutiny.
There are not many fools in this world, and there are smart people everywhere. Therefore, the closure of the city and the government is just a measure of rights and interests, giving her a chance to breathe and prepare, and it will not last long.
But in three or four days, there was a commotion in her house first.
At the beginning of the closure of the mansion, Mu Yuan asked someone to send food to the princess's mansion for two days.
This is a bit like a blessing from heaven, and the servants were happy at the beginning: after all, she didn't steal, and the eldest princess didn't look like someone who would be wronged. Then they don't have to work, they eat things that they buy from outside, and they are usually reluctant to give up. Although it is not allowed to run around the door, although it is cold these days, the wind is not strong, and there is nothing wrong with opening a window occasionally and knocking your teeth.
Some people want to leave the house at this time, but they still don't think so. But after a few days, it felt like something was wrong.
First of all, it was the chief manager of Scarlet who asked someone to select a few people to cook for everyone in the house. However, those people are not cooks at all, and the food they cook is called unpalatable.
Secondly, someone saw the doctor going in and out of the newly picked up girl's hut, looking nervous. And the things that were taken out of the house, and the things that were used for food, were burned. The soup and medicine sent in couldn't be more.
In particular, there are several doctors, one is tall and good-looking, and the other is still Tang Taiyi!
A girl who picked up and was disfigured, if she was just suffering from the wind and cold, and she could be treated by the doctor?
Thirdly, some of them were sick, with a high fever, a headache, and red spots on their faces. And Min Xia stared closely, once someone was sick, he immediately found someone to carry him to the side courtyard that was usually deserted and almost no one went, looking very nervous. Even the people who were called to take care of the patients were all the guards of the prefecture, and they all covered their faces with white cloths soaked in medicinal juice, and some of them even wrapped their hands.
The guards all have ranks, they are officials! Usually, if someone has an accident among the servants, it is carried by other male servants or stout mothers-in-law.
Moreover, those who are in the same house with this person or have close contact with him are also sent to another courtyard, where they are provided with good food and drink, but they are not allowed to see outsiders.
Fourth, the news came out of nowhere, those maids close to the Lord of the Mansion and the eldest princess had all cut their arms with needles, which were weird, as if they had used some secret recipe.
Fifth, and most surprisingly, is that someone wants to sneak out of the house.
This is not uncommon, not to mention the eldest princess, as long as she doesn't make a big mistake, even Scarlet will turn a blind eye. But this time, he was directly caught by a big black man with no expression on his face and threw it back.
When these situations are combined, especially the comparison between the subordinates, everyone is nervous and afraid. Especially a little guy named Zhou Wu, who had said before that his mother was sick, and when he was on vacation, he was making a fuss about going home, but he was stopped.
Zhao Ping'an also asked the people who answered outside to go to his house to see his mother, in order to calm his heart, which can be regarded as benevolent and righteous. As a result, it has only been a few days, and he is not the only one among the people who have sneaked out, and now he is taking the lead in arguing.
"That's not right!" He shouted excitedly, "It seems that there is some epidemic in the house, and the one called Xiaoxiao brought it in." Because she was afraid of others, the eldest princess sealed the mansion and locked us all up! ”
The crowd was shocked.
After all, the situation is so obvious, many people think so, but no one dares to guess so. So saying it directly like this is a great psychological blow to the group, and it is also very explosive.
