Chapter 184: Death
Yu Zhiyan looked out along the crack in the door, but saw that the weather was a little gloomy, and it really looked like a blizzard.
The snowstorm that fell a few days ago only melted, and I was barely able to go down the mountain to buy vegetables, but now it is going to fall again, and I can't help but add a little blockage to my heart.
A complicated look flashed in Yu Zheshuang's eyes, and then slowly walked out of the room with the support of the maid, far away, she could still hear the rustle of her steps.
After Yu Zhishuang left, Yu Zhiyan snatched half of the pastries that her daughter had eaten, and then threw them in the food box.
Arnold pursed his lips and looked at her pitifully.
"If this pastry is left for a long time, it will hurt your stomach, will Auntie go to the kitchen to make some for you later?" Yu Zhiyan reached out and touched her little face.
Arnold nodded obediently, and shouted for Bai Zhu'er to take her to pick plum blossoms on the back mountain.
Yu Zhiyan only said that it was too late, so she was not allowed to go out to mess around, and only ordered someone to bring pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, so that she could read and read in the house.
Yu Zhiyan went to the kitchen in the backyard to make plum blossom cakes, and the plum blossoms that had just been picked from the back mountain were so fragrant after steaming.
She packed the plate and walked outside, only to lift the heavy curtain of the oil-stained door, but she felt a chill hit her cheeks, and she couldn't help but shiver.
As soon as her feet landed on the bluestone steps, she felt a slip and fell straight down.
The porcelain plate in her hand fell on the snow-stained stone steps and instantly shattered, and Yu Zhiyan escaped by holding the ground with her hand, but her palm was pierced by the sharp tip of the bowl.
And the pastries she made were also covered in the blood, and they were all ruined.
Look at this goose-feathered snow, as if it is constantly pulling. Yu Zhiyan couldn't help but have a bad premonition, as if there was something in his heart, and he was very heavy.
She didn't have the heart to make pastries anymore, and she was afraid that Arnold would cry after waiting for a long time.
When she returned to the house, she saw Arnold lying on the table, and the cloak on her body had fallen to the ground.
She couldn't help sighing and hurriedly walked to Arnold's side, but when she wanted to pick up Arnold, she saw Arnold's face was terrible, and his scarlet lips turned blue-purple.
Yu Zhiyan's face changed suddenly, and he shouted heartbreakingly, "Come on, come onβ"
The clean nunnery became nervous because of her shouting, Bai Zhu'er rushed over first, and then there were guards who heard the sound.
As soon as Bai Zhu'er entered the house, she saw Yu Zhiyan holding Arnold in her arms, and then called her daughter's name one by one, "Arnold, Arnoldβ"
"Madam, it seems that Miss is a symptom of poisoning." Bai Zhuer Rao is a calm person, but he is also panicked at this time.
Her words made Yu Zhiyan think of the pastries sent by her sister, and her face suddenly changed, and then she hurriedly said, "Go and ask those nuns for some urging."
Spit out the medicine, and then take the rest of the pastries and see what the poison is. β
Bai Zhu'er took the order, and the guards also hurried in, and they didn't wait for Bai Zhu'er to come back, but patted Arnold on the back, and then spit out half of the pastry she had just eaten.
Yu Zhiyan looked at the things that he spit out, and then thought that he had also eaten Arnold's piece of pastry, but he was safe and sound, presumably there was poison in the pastry.
In an instant, Yu Zhiyan's mind was also turning a thousand times, and she vaguely recalled that when her sister delivered pastries, her hand was tightly holding Arnold's arm.
Yu Zhenyan also clearly saw Arnold shrinking back in pain.
Thinking like this, she reached out and rolled up the sleeves of Arnold's arm, but saw that there was a faint black mark on her thin white wrist, and there was a faint pinhole in the black and purple in the middle.
Yu Zhiyan couldn't help but feel remorseful on his face, but he didn't expect to take precautions, but he still caught the road.
The guard at the head knew that something was wrong, but he saw that Arnold's poisoning was not too deep, and he could still hold it for a while.
The guard hurriedly said, "My subordinates will go down the mountain and call the doctor." β
"Waitβ" Yu Zhiyan's voice was full of tremors, and she took a deep breath, barely trying to calm herself, "I'll go with Arnold." β
The guard knelt on the ground, "Madam, it's snowing so heavily outside, it's cold and slippery on the mountain, it's so dangerous, if you have three long and two short, how can you tell your subordinates to explain to General Gu." β
Yu Zhiyan shouted angrily: "Go and prepare the carriage immediately, if anyone persuades him again, I will kill him immediately." β
This nunnery was originally a place to eat fasting and chant Buddha, and with such murderous intent, a few little nuns standing next to them were frightened.
Naturally, the guards didn't dare to be disobedient anymore, so they hurriedly prepared the carriage, and they didn't care about picking up the things beside them, so they hurried down the mountain.
The road down the mountain was very bumpy, and Arnold slowly woke up in the carriage, her body became colder and colder, and her dark eyes seemed to lose their luster.
"Auntie." Her voice was fragile and helpless, "I'm not going to die, I'm so uncomfortable." β
Yu Zhiyan touched her face with her hand, tears fell on the placket of her clothes, and then condensed into ice, "Silly girl, you're just sick, let's go down the mountain." β
Bai Zhu'er was in a hurry, but she didn't dare to cry, she only lifted the curtain and said angrily to the guards who were driving the car outside: "Don't hurry up." β
However, as soon as she finished speaking, she heard a rumbling sound, which seemed to come from overhead. Yu Zhiyan subconsciously hugged his daughter tightly, and looked at the roof of the car a little nervously.
However, at this moment, only a "bang" was heard from above, and the carriage immediately fell apart, and Yu Zhiyan fell into the snow with Arnold in his arms.
Only then did Yu Zhiyan see the things around him clearly, it was dark at this time, the snow was like cotton wool, and what he saw in front of him was a stone the size of a stubborn stone.
The guards were relieved to see that Yu Zhiyan was safe. Only then did I check that the boulder had been smashed down with an axe.
The leader of the guards hurriedly said, "Run, there is an ambush." β
Yu Zhiyan was looking at Arnold, but saw that her face became more and more pale after the fall just now.
She looked around, and heard only the sound of swords unsheathed, and saw countless arrows shooting in the pine forests of the mountains.
The sharp arrow pierced through the snow and struck the guard in the throat, and blood spurted out, staining the flawless snow on the ground.
Yu Zhiyan couldn't help but feel nervous, and hurriedly ran down the mountain with his daughter in his arms.
When the assassins who were lying in ambush in the pine and bamboo forest saw that she was about to run, the arrows became more violent, and then a black shadow came out and came straight towards her.
Yu Zhiyan really couldn't figure out who was going to kill her, but it was obvious that those people would not spare her life at all.
And at this moment, Bai Zhu'er had already climbed out from under the carriage, and looked at Yu Zhiyan with a panicked face, "Madam, let's go quickly." β
Because of this random shooting, the horses were also messed up, and they only ran indiscriminately. Yu Zhiyan stretched out his hand and took the reins of the horse, and then said to Bai Zhu'er: "Can you ride a horse?" β
Bai Zhu'er was so frightened that her whole body was trembling, and she said hesitantly: "Yesβit will be a little." β
Compared with her, Yu Zhiyan was quite calm, and she hurriedly said: "Get on the horse!" β
Bai Zhu'er was also frightened by the fierce color on her face, and only climbed on the horse as she commanded, but before she could sit down, Yu Zhiyan handed Arnold in her arms into her arms.
"Take her to the wild goose back to the building to find a person named Bai Feng." After Yu Zhiyan finished speaking, he pulled out an arrow from the ground and stuck it in the horse's buttocks
Above.
The frightened horse raised its front hooves and neighed violently, and then ran madly down the hill.
Yu Zhiyan saw that those who were hiding had come out and killed his guards cleanly.
She made up her mind and hurriedly ran back along the road, she didn't take the main road, but just ran along the small road. And those at this moment, immediately abandoned their horses and chased after them.
Yu Zhiyan only walked in my difficult place, and the thorns everywhere cut through her cotton clothes, and her shoes were also cut, and blood kept remaining.
But the snow was getting heavier and heavier, and she couldn't tell the direction at all, and she couldn't even see the scene a few feet in front of her.
It wasn't until she ran to the edge of the cliff that she realized she was on the wrong path.
Hundreds of feet of cliffs, if you fall down, you will be crushed. She didn't want to jump, she hadn't seen Donglang yet, he said that he wanted to come back to her, how could she lose her words.
However, at this moment, the sound of footsteps and swords colliding came, and I saw that more than a dozen men had already found her along the footprints, looking at her with murderous intent.
Half a step later came the cliff, and she couldn't retreat, so she raised her head and looked at the people who had not yet been masked, and saw that they were tall, and their arms and wrists were all powerful, presumably well-trained people.
"Are you the ones who conceive the king?" Yu Zhiyan said slowly: "I am already in a catastrophe today, you might as well let me die." β
The big man who was holding a bow and arrow in his hand, but the big man standing at the front smiled coldly, "We are from the southwest." β
Yu Zhiyan understood everything in an instant, and sneered: "It turned out to be Lord Guozhang, but I didn't expect it to be the queen who couldn't tolerate me." β
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the arrow with a chill shoot and stick straight into her chest.
A pain mixed with chill spread across her limbs, and her tears fell, but they immediately froze, "Donglang, I can't wait for you." β
After saying that, her thin body slammed backwards, like a dead branch falling down a cliff, and the blood she shed stained the snow.
Seeing her fall, among the black-clothed people, someone asked, "My lord, can you still go down to look for her?" β
The man who shot the arrow slowly put down the bow in his hand, and the fierceness in his eyes slowly dissipated. "If you are wounded on such a high ground, how can you live?"
However, at this moment, there was a sound of footsteps.
