Chapter 51
Wei Ruyi could almost smell the bloody breath on Qi Huang's mouth.
She fell in front of him with no strength, and saw his red eyes and bared teeth biting down on her neck, only to feel the hairs on her body stand up.
"Ah Huang......" She tried to make a calm voice, and just as Lou Yan ran over with everyone running over, Qi Huang's teeth that had been placed on Wei Ruyi's neck stopped.
"I said I was coming to see you, remember?"
Wei Ru thought that he had not completely lost his mind, and continued to speak softly.
Seeing this, Lou Yan stopped his footsteps and stopped Princess Runan, who was about to speak out.
Wei Ruyi tried to slowly withdraw from his domination, and said softly, "You like to read, don't you?" I have a lot of books at home, when I bring them, can I read them with you? ”
The red in Qi Huang's eyes slowly faded, and she gradually became confused, but Princess Runan panicked, she didn't want the secret she had hidden for more than ten years to be exposed like this, she could manage the people in the palace, and she could use her interests to blackmail the national teacher, but what about Wei Ruyi? She must have guessed her intention to marry her as a daughter-in-law, but she resisted again and again, which shows that she will not be able to keep it, she must die!
"Phoenix ......"
"Princess!" Lou Yan gave a cold look, and Princess Runan stopped talking, because this rumored mercenary national teacher who was bent on gaining power didn't seem to take herself seriously, and she would never be able to kill him today......
Princess Runan's words were stuck in her throat, but Qi Huang's eyes became clearer and clearer until the red color completely faded.
When he saw the room full of people, he was so frightened that he wanted to shrink back, but Wei Ruyi saw the magpie that fell behind him with blood all over his neck, immediately pulled him down, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, they are all friends of my sister and will not hurt you." ”
"Really?" Qi Huang was still trembling timidly, he didn't even dare to look at it anymore, and kept using his sleeves to cover his face.
Wei Ruyi pulled him while quickly picking up the black veil on the ground and putting it on him, before saying, "It's okay." ”
After putting on the veil, Qi Huang's mood finally slowly stabilized, Princess Runan looked at her son who had calmed down the urge to drink blood for the first time, and then looked at Wei Ruyi, who seemed to be not afraid at all and was very considerate and gentle, her eyes became complicated.
If she can marry Huang'er and serve him wholeheartedly and take care of him, then even if she is no longer there in the future, Huang'er will definitely be able to live well......
"Princess, it's cold on the mountain, and the eldest prince is not in good health, so you should send him back to rest earlier." Wei Ruyi looked at Lou Yan who was protecting him behind him, and his frightened heart slowly settled down.
"What about my sister, will you go back with me?" Qi Huang asked her a little shyly.
Wei Ruyi smiled lightly: "Sister still has something to do, I'll see you when I'm free." ”
"And when are you free?"
"Wait until Princess Runan thinks clearly." Wei Ruyi stared straight at Princess Runan without the slightest politeness.
When Princess Runan saw that she dared to say this, her face turned slightly blue, and she pulled Qi Huang and left.
When she left, Master Wuchen was late, but when she smelled the smell of blood and burnt smell all over the room, she glared at Wei Ruyi unhappily at the moment, and then saluted Lou Yan with a smile: "Master Guoshi, the old lady has finished chanting the scriptures this time, please come over and speak." ”
"Wei Ruyi, you come along." He glanced at Wei Ruyi, who had calmed down, and turned his head to leave.
This girl, who cries when she falls on weekdays, is still so calm when she sees such a terrifying scene today, what is she thinking about day by day?
"Let's go together."
Wei Ruyi hurriedly followed him and said with a smile.
Lou Yan didn't bother to pay attention to her, but she enjoyed herself, and she didn't care if he liked to listen to it or not, so she told him about the experience of chanting scriptures on the mountain in the past two days, as if she had completely forgotten what had happened.
There are a total of five entrances before and after the temple, such as Wei Ruyi, who wears sins to practice, lives in the second wing, and the most honorable presiding master and the emperor's grace live in the fifth entrance, and now this old lady is here.
After passing through the courtyard gates, he finally stopped in a clean small courtyard, and stopped when he greeted people at the gate of the courtyard: "Please go in by yourself." ”
Wei Ruyi looked at her angry and disgusted look in the corner of her eyes, and said with a smile: "Why didn't Mrs. Shi go in together?" When you come, you have to salute, no. ”
Wuchen's face was even darker, but when Lou Yan heard this, her footsteps didn't move, as if she wanted to listen to her answer, she had to endure her anger and resentment and smirked: "The rules of the old lady are only for those you want to see, and outsiders are usually not allowed to go in and disturb." Fourth Miss, you ......"
"Let's go." Lou Yan interrupted her coldly, and went inside, but Wei Ruyi gave Wuchen a little face that became more and more brilliant, and then obediently followed Lou Yan in.
She knows the old lady here, and Lou Yan has brought herself here once or twice in her previous life, but the old lady has a strange temperament, and the person who doesn't fall in her eyes may not see the queen even if she comes. It's strange to say, obviously this old lady has no children under her knees, but she is especially respected by the emperor, and she wants to respect her as the queen mother several times, but she still moved to this temple to cultivate, in her previous life, she was puzzled about this, and also asked Lou Yan, but Lou Yan didn't mention a word.
Just thinking about it, I have stepped into the inner hall, surrounded by sandalwood, accompanied by the soft and slow chanting sound, quiet as if it is an out-of-this-world place.
Lou Yan stood respectfully behind the bead curtain, and Wei Ruyi also put away his temperament and stood in a proper manner.
After a cup of tea, the chanting inside finally stopped, and an old woman with gray hair came slowly.
"Xiao Yan is here." She laughed, her thin face full of detachment like seeing through the red dust.
"Say hello to the old lady." Lou Yan saluted, and Wei Ruyi also saluted, but the old lady didn't look at her, and sat straight on the warm couch.
An old lady made tea, and the old lady drank it slowly, and then smiled: "It's rare for you to remember me, it used to be rare to come twice a year, but recently I came twice in the past few days." ”
As soon as Wei Ruyi's eyes lit up, she knew that Lou Yan must have her own place in her heart.
The corners of her mouth quietly raised, and Lou Yan's slightly cool voice came faintly: "The emperor gave an edict, saying that he would not be free to see you for a long time, so he asked his ministers to do it for him." ”
Wei Ruyi: Could it be that the "......" is too optimistic?
Lou Yan glanced at her look that turned from joy to sorrow, a smile appeared on her lips, and she only said to the old lady: "Seeing that the old lady is fine, the minister will not bother much." ”
"I know you're busy with business, go ahead." The old lady lowered her eyes and drank tea, and Lou Yan saluted and left.
Now it's Wei Ruyi's turn to be embarrassed, is she going to follow, or is she going to stay? is such a big person, can't the old lady say a word?
After thinking about it, the old lady had already spoken: "What are you doing there, I haven't had time to copy the scriptures I just recited, you go and copy them all for me." ”
Wei Ruyi raised her head in amazement, the old lady only snorted at her, and the old lady on one side pointed to her with a smile.
Wei Ruyi understood, so he hurriedly saluted and went to the innermost room.
But then again, the old lady is going to cover herself?
Wei Ruyi sat down in front of the bookcase, looked out again, and didn't smile and breathe a sigh of relief until Lou Yan left, and obediently copied the scriptures.
She thought, now the Yun family and the Yun family have already jumped into the chicken, but the real show is about to be staged!
The Yun clan will indeed be hit hard.
In the prison of the Criminal Department, she sat paralyzed on the dry grass, and when she thought that Aunt Liu's dared to tell the truth everywhere, she wanted to kill her!
"Mother!"
Wei Qingshui sent the official messenger in, and saw that the Yun family was only wearing thin clothes in the cold and damp cell, and he was distressed.
Seeing her and Wei Qizhang who followed, the Yun clan hurriedly got up and walked over, took her hand and said, "What's going on outside?" ”
Wei Qingshui's eyes were slightly wet, and Wei Qizhang said: "King Xiao is on the fold, he has joined his cousin, and Dali Temple has also captured a group of assassins, it is said that he was also sent by his mother to assassinate Ruyi, mother, why are you ......?"
"It's all this time, and you're still protecting her?" Yun interrupted him and asked in a cold voice.
"Child......" Wei Qizhang didn't know how to explain, Wei Qingshui only said: "Mother, my cousin identified Ruyi and collided with Niangniang, and those assassins, are they really arranged by you?" ”
Yun didn't speak, she must not admit these things.
After a pause, she said, "What's going on with the rouge shop?" ”
"Uncle personally escorted the fugitive to the criminal department, the prisoner was beheaded last night, the emperor thought that you were deceived by someone, and he has issued a decree to pardon, and the holy decree will arrive in a while......"
Wei Qingshui's words were not finished, Yun Shi only grabbed her hand with tears in his eyes, and finally, without taking a breath, he passed out.
At this time, the ministers in the inner hall of the criminal department were also very difficult.
Several generations of eunuchs of the Yun family, the depth of the foundation is huge, and it is beyond the reach of others, and the emperor may not dare to attack the Yun family easily, let alone these officials of the Criminal Department?
"Prime Minister, don't worry, those assassins in Dali Temple, the lower officials have already asked people to transfer to the Criminal Department, just wait for your words, and they can ......" He made a gesture to wipe his neck.
Prime Minister Yun is the eldest son of the current Yun family and the eldest brother of the Yun family.
Hearing this, his dark face looked a little better: "What about the matter of Qin Tianjian?" ”
"This ......" Shangshu of the Criminal Department was also very embarrassed, and glanced at his colleagues, before he was embarrassed: "You also know that this matter is related to the royal decency, and it also involves Roujia Guifei, the emperor has decreed that capital crimes can be avoided, living crimes are intolerable, and exile for eight thousand miles is already tolerant." ”
"Tolerance?" Prime Minister Yun snorted coldly, not commenting.
Shangshu of the Criminal Department was also embarrassed, but he still stepped forward and said: "Your nephew Yundong, the lower official has already sent someone to deal with it, maybe he can be exempted from the death penalty......"
"No need, if he dies, he will die, and the most patient King Xiao can't help but move his hand to save Yundong, isn't it against him?" Prime Minister Yun's gaze became more and more cloudy.
"Yes, the lower officials know what to do......
"It's just that these things have been too strange recently, why did they suddenly happen one after another." He frowned and looked at the henchmen beside him: "Nie Rongsheng, you send someone to check if someone is secretly doing ghosts in these things." ”
A shrewd man in Tsing Yi with a mustache immediately walked out, saluted, and went out immediately.
As soon as he left, a person hurriedly ran in from outside, whispering a few words in the ear of the criminal department Shangshu, and the face of the criminal department Shangshu was even more embarrassed.
"What's wrong?" Prime Minister Yun glanced at him and asked casually.
"Returning to the Prime Minister, it's the ...... of King Xiao's Mansion" Shangshu of the Criminal Department sighed, shook his head again, and then said: "At the gate of King Xiao's Mansion, a dumb girl suddenly appeared with a child, saying that the child belonged to King Xiao, and the people from Jingzhao Mansion had already rushed there, but they were afraid of involving the royal majesty, so they didn't dare to move, and they had already sent someone to ask me to come here." ”
When Prime Minister Yun heard this, he also felt strange.
"What about King Xiao? How could he possibly tolerate someone messing around at his door? ”
"The problem is here, King Xiao took the old lady's body to the city for burial this morning, I'm afraid that it won't be dark until I come back......"
Shangshu of the Criminal Department was very bitter in his heart, so he offended the Yun family, and he turned his head to offend King Xiao again.
He looked at Yun Shangshu, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "Prime Minister, you can give the lower officials some direction, how should this be." ”
Prime Minister Yun put down the teacup, stood up, only glanced at him sympathetically, and straightened his collar: "The old man doesn't dare to interfere in the affairs of the Criminal Department, so the adults will ask for more blessings." With that, he took the people and left. The Yun family will never be able to fight before the power of several princes and princes is unknown.
Shangshu of the Criminal Department watched him float away like this, vomited out a mouthful of old blood, and said that he didn't dare to interfere, who was the one who pointed the fingers?
The others quickly helped him up and hurriedly said, "What do you think is going to be good?" ”
"How do I know?" Shangshu of the Criminal Department was so angry that he jumped to his feet, and suddenly his heart lit up, he closed his eyes and fell to the ground, no matter who shouted, he didn't open his eyes.
Xiao Wangfu.
The commander of the guards had already drawn his sword: "If you dare to slander Your Highness here, don't blame me for not having long eyes under the sword!" ”
The dumb girl's tears were about to drain, but she couldn't say a word, she could only point to her own throat, and then to the child and the piece of jade hanging on the child's body and shook her head.
Jing Zhaoyin stood on one side and wiped his sweat, he could recognize it at a glance, the jade was given to King Xiao by the emperor a few years ago, and this child's facial features are really a little similar to Xiao Wang Jiang Di, and then look at this dumb girl, a scar on the neck, it is estimated that she has been cut throat, and she survived by luck......
When the princes are older, they are indeed assigned to various places to inspect every year, and King Xiao is sent frequently, if there are so many women on the way to vent, he also understands, but it is too unseemly to let people hold two or three-year-old children to come to the door.
"Otherwise, wait for His Highness to come back, and now bring them into the mansion to rest." Jing Zhaoyin reminded.
"No, they're just Diaomin!"
The commander of the guards was worried that after leading in, he would be even more unclear.
The two sides were deadlocked, but as a result, more and more people watched.
Xiao Yao watched that it was getting late, and took out half of the broken jade that Yundong had fallen from his sleeve, and then quietly turned around and left.
Late at night, Wei Ruyi copied the scriptures and came out, the old lady had already rested, and the old lady personally sent her back to the wing room before leaving, making the dustless master so angry that his face was distorted.
When Xiao Yao came, it happened that the two little nuns before mentioned vegetarian food, both of which were excellent vegetarian porridge and two plates of vegetarian dishes, and they also bought a large package of medicine by the way.
"Sisters, rest assured, this pill will only take a day or two to make it, and it will be effective soon after taking it." Wei Ruyi said politely.
"Okay, then we'll pick it up in three days, and we'll keep an eye on your food in the next few days." After the two of them finished speaking excitedly, Wei Ruyi gave them some of his own Zhu Hai jewelry, and they left satisfied.
After they left, Wei Ruyi looked at the clear soup and little water, which made people unable to make some appetite for the meal, and worried.
"Miss......"
There was a sound outside the window, Wei Ruyi ran to the window as fast as he could not let the wound open, and when he opened it, he saw Xiao Yao, whose shoes were almost worn out: "You rushed back?" ”
"It just so happened that a peasant came with a wagon, and the slaves and maids followed." Xiao Yao smiled, took out a cloth bag from his arms, and through the broken flower cloth, Wei Ruyi smelled the strong aroma of meat!
Xiao Yao looked at her eyes that lit up instantly, laughed, and then limped in from the front door.
I opened the cloth bag and took out several oiled paper bags, only to see that it was a bag of crab roe buns wrapped in two fists, a pack of bright braised lion heads and a small number of palace protection hares.
Wei Ruyi's appetite was opened, but Xiao Yao said apologetically: "The slave didn't know what the lady usually ate, so she found a restaurant and asked the shopkeeper to wrap some for the slave and maid, and the slave and maid wanted to buy more, but ......"
She blushed because of the shyness in her pocket, but Wei Ruyi burst out laughing, sat down at the only small square table in the room, divided half of the food and gave it to her: "I love to eat these, let's share them." ”
"The slave is not hungry, the slave has already eaten." Xiao Yao said hurriedly, but his eyes couldn't help but look at the food, and he lowered his head crampedly and pinched the corners of his clothes.
"If you don't eat some meat, when will the wound heal, do you want to be a cripple in the future? I don't want a cripple to be around. Wei Ruyi ate his own share by himself.
Xiao Yao's eyes were red, she looked at Wei Ruyi, and then at the food, and then obediently took it and sat in the corner and devoured it.
After running around for two days, she only thought about revenge, and she only ate those two dirty steamed buns last night.
After the master and servant finished eating, Wei Ruyi finally stood up comfortably and tinkered with those medicinal materials, and if she had time to prepare more medicinal powder, she didn't have to worry about things like Princess Runan today.
"Miss, don't you want to ask about Yamashita?" Xiao Yao nervously followed behind her.
"The matter under the mountain, there is no decision today, wait for tomorrow." Wei Ruyi finished speaking with a smile, paused, remembered something, turned his head and said to Xiao Yao: "Tomorrow, you will quietly go to the Marquis of Wuning's mansion, find Mother Xie, and ask her to go to my makeup box to get five hundred miles of silver." After speaking, he took off his bracelet and gave it to her: "When she sees this, she will naturally believe you." ”
"Yes......"
"After you get the silver, you keep one hundred taels for yourself, and quietly find someone to take care of your grandfather's funeral, and find someone to find the remaining four hundred taels." Wei Ruyi thought for a while, and was a little embarrassed: "I don't remember the specific location, but you remember, the man who appeared in the city in the past two days and said crazy things everywhere and threatened that he was a genius, you first placed him in the inn and asked him to wait for me." Wei Ruyi thought of that person, and her mood was better.
Now that Xiaoyao, a neat and sensible person is doing things for her outside, it is indeed a lot more convenient, and the hands and feet that she couldn't let go of before can now be let go.
Xiao Yao immediately nodded obediently.
After working in the middle of the night, Wei Ruyi went to turn over two quilts for Xiao Yao, and then fell asleep.
Before dawn the next day, Xiao Yao went down the mountain, but Jiang Yan couldn't stay at home, so he ran to the temple by himself.
Wei Ruyi was quietly copying scriptures in the old concubine's room, and he heard the sound of Jiang Yan outside, but the old lady didn't see it.
It was already noon after copying a volume of scriptures, and the old lady ignored her as usual and let her go back.
Wei Ruyi just came out of the old lady's courtyard and saw Jiang Yan who was pulling the young nun to sit under the porch and talk.
She just pretended not to see it, lowered her head and prepared to slip away, but Jiang Yan saw her at a glance when the cat was about to run.
"Little Ruyi, where are you going?"
Wei Ruyi sighed in her heart, she is now a woman from a good family, so she doesn't want to play with the gentleman.
"The Seven Princes." She saluted, Jiang Yan had already rushed to her, and leisurely opened the folding fan and said with a smile: "You are hiding here, the Marquis of Wuning's mansion is about to explode." ”
"Oh, but what's wrong?" Wei Ruyi only pretended to be ignorant.
Seeing this, Jiang Yan immediately said with great interest: "Your stepmother, harboring the court repeat offender for more than ten years, after being discovered, Prime Minister Yun personally escorted the repeat offender and beheaded him that night, it is said that when she heard the news, she fainted directly, and woke up this morning, her eyes were almost blind from crying, and it was rumored that she was crying like this A man who has nothing to do with her, I am afraid that Wu Ninghou has already put on a green hat......"
Wei Ruyi couldn't help but laugh, and said, "That felony is a man?" ”
"Isn't it? Do you know who it is? Jiang Yan approached mysteriously, Wei Ruyi nodded immediately, but Jiang Yan saw her excited eyes, and smiled: "I won't tell you." ”
Wei Ruyi: "......"
She was too lazy to bother with the childish Jiang Yan, anyway, this matter was probably spread in the capital, and she would soon know.
He only said, "What are the Seventh Princes doing here today?" ”
"It's okay, just go for a walk." Jiang Yan's expression darkened a little, and then he smiled and said, "Do you remember the last time you tricked the nephew of the Fourth Emperor Brother into boiling the fish for him to replenish his body?" ”
"Don't wronged me, the Seventh Prince, that's what I instructed, it's his own filial piety." Wei Ruyi went out as he spoke, and Jiang Yan also followed: "I went to see that day, a low-key person like the Fourth Emperor Brother was so angry that he almost killed his stupid nephew." You are also lucky, he hasn't settled accounts with you yet, the cheap daughter-in-law and son have been sent to the door, and now the father and emperor are alarmed. After speaking, the corners of his eyes deliberately focused on Wei Ruyi's expression.
"Maybe I'm the chosen one, and I have to be favored by God." Wei Ruyi couldn't hear the temptation in his tone.
Jiang Yan was amused by these words, and laughed, Wei Ruyi only hurriedly found an excuse to sneak back to the wing.
National Teacher's Mansion.
In the pavilion near the lake, Lou Yan drank tea lightly, and Prime Minister Yun didn't seem to listen to a word of coercion and temptation.
"Do you really think that officialdom will always be in your hands, like a fish in water?" Prime Minister Yun's words already had a faint warning, but if Lou Yan was afraid, then he was not the one who made the Manchu Dynasty jealous of the civil and military as soon as he became a national teacher.
"It seems that the promise of the head of the Yun family cannot be fulfilled." Lou Yan put down the teacup and looked at the annoyed Prime Minister Yun lightly.
Prime Minister Yun's gloomy face only showed a hint of sarcasm: "My Yun family is a hundred-year-old clan, you forced my Yun family to leave the capital when you opened your mouth, do you think this is possible?" ”
Lou Yanfeng's eyes were slightly cold, and he only got up lightly: "Since Prime Minister Yun is unwilling to agree, it is useless to say more." ”
He turned around and wanted to leave, but Prime Minister Yun immediately gave the master beside him a look, and in an instant, several cold blades immediately stabbed towards Lou Yan from all sides.
Prime Minister Yun knows that Lou Yan doesn't know kung fu, and his master is also a master in the rivers and lakes!
The cold wind suddenly rose, and the calm lake surface also rippled because of the surging murderous aura, only in the light turn of the cold blade, Lou Yan did not move, and the four of them felt a cold neck at the same time, and before they could dodge, the hidden weapon of the meteor dart had pierced their necks, causing them to fall heavily to the ground.
Prime Minister Yun immediately stood up in fright, but Lou Yan didn't reply: "Don't worry, Prime Minister, the deity will not kill incompetent people." After that, he walked away, but Yun Cheng was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth!
When he left the National Teacher's Mansion angrily, Ah Zhong said: "Your Excellency, I found out that the dumb girl and the child were a person named Nie Rongsheng, who was placed next to King Xiao's Mansion not long ago. ”
"Nie Rongsheng?" Lou Yan looked sideways at Ah Zhong with a slight gaze.
Ah Zhong hurriedly bowed: "My subordinates know that Nie Rongsheng is the most shrewd henchman around Prime Minister Yun, and it stands to reason that he won't show his identity to do such things, but ......" He hesitated.
"Say."
"However, when the subordinates went down to investigate, those people said that they were dressed in black and covered their faces, and they only claimed that they were Nie Rongsheng, and their subordinates couldn't find other clues." Ah Zhong also felt strange that there were forces in this capital that were not under their control, and this plan did not look like it had been prepared for a long time, otherwise it would be impossible to leave no clues at all, it was more like an impromptu idea.
"Continue to send people to investigate, as for the Yun family's hands and feet, one by one, they are all broken."
"Yes!" Ah Zhong responded and went to do it immediately.
When he left, Lou Yan wanted to think of all the things that had happened recently, and the key points were all on Wei Ruyi, but the only thing he couldn't figure out was King Xiao. She should have known Wang Xiao, saying that she designed King Xiao seems a bit unbelievable, but she is full of weirdness......
After thinking about it, he found that the pen he was holding in his hand had written the words 'Wei Ruyi' on the paper at some point.
Seeing these three words, I remembered her sweet smile as soon as she saw her, and a slight smile unconsciously rose on her lips.
Wei Ruyi, you'd better not let me find out that your approach has no other purpose......
Another day passed, and after King Xiao was reprimanded by the emperor because he had fornicated with a folk girl and gave birth to a child, he also gave the task of leading the troops to him in the second half of this year to other princes. In this way, the easiest and most direct opportunity to control the army was lost.
After receiving the news from the Heart Cultivation Palace, Jiang Di's whole person was cold.
Jiang Yan had just entered the palace, and when he saw him like this, his tone was a little lighter: "Fourth brother, don't worry, my father is just angry for a while, and he won't really treat you well." ”
Jiang Di looked at Jiang Yan, who had wandered back from nowhere, and smiled: "I know, seventh brother, now in this palace, you are the only one who still treats me as a relative." ”
"Where is the fourth brother talking about, you and I are relatives." Jiang Yan said busily.
Jiang Di just smiled bitterly, patted him on the shoulder, and walked away.
Jiang Yan saw his lonely appearance, and could only sigh faintly, and then went to the harem to ask for peace.
His biological mother is just an ordinary virtuous concubine, with a soft and weak temperament, and she never likes to compete with others for anything, but she has a good relationship with Roujia Guifei, so when Jiang Yan came, it happened that Roujia Guifei was also there.
"The son gives the mother concubine, and the concubine asks for peace." Jiang Yan smiled and saluted.
Concubine Xian beckoned him over lovingly, and then pulled him to smile and reproach: "You have been out in the field all day long, have you read books, and have you done your martial arts?" ”
Jiang Yan naturally said that he had learned well, and Concubine Xian was so angry that she only poked his forehead: "I know that I lied to my mother." ”
Jiang Yan smiled obediently, the mother and son were happy, and Concubine Roujia looked at it, and the depression in her heart dissipated a little.
In a blink of an eye, he caught a glimpse of the small goose-yellow purse on Jiang Yan's waist, smiled at the soft flowers embroidered on it, and said with a smile: "Yan'er, this is a sweetheart?" ”
Jiang Yan was also blindfolded for a moment, and when he saw her staring at the purse, he smiled and said, "I snatched it from Xiao Yan." ”
"It's a good embroidery." Concubine Roujia still smiled gently, and Jiang Yan also smiled and said: "Ruyi has no other skills, but the embroidery skills are okay." ”
"Ruyi?" Concubine Roujia's mind moved slightly.
"Yes, the fourth young lady of the Marquis of Wuning, that Qin Tianjian spread rumors that he had collided with your girl." Jiang Yan said with a smile as if he couldn't see her abnormality.
Having said this, Concubine Roujia was stunned first, and then raised her hand and poked his head: "When did you talk to this palace also beat around the bush?" But if you don't say it, I forgot about her, and I'll go back to find the emperor's will and let her go home. ”
Jiang Yan smiled: "I heard that she was covered with injuries, and she was almost assassinated on the way to the temple, but she really didn't die." ”
Concubine Roujia glared at him: "I know, just go back to the palace and make up for her." ”
"There, the minister thanked the mother for Ruyi first." Jiang Yan hurriedly smiled.
"What are you thanking her for, she is not your person, didn't you say everything, she embroidered the purse for the national teacher. The Seventh Prince, who dared to love us and had always been suave, was actually disliked. Concubine Roujia said and laughed with Concubine Xian.
Jiang Yan was not angry, smiled at them after laughing, and said something with them, and then said goodbye.
As soon as he left the palace gate, he saw Lou Yan waiting in the carriage, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I said it all, Xiao Ruyi will be able to go home soon." ”
"Hmmm......"
"But let's talk about it first, it's not you who begged me for Ruyi, it's me who wants to go with you, let's help her together." Jiang Yan hurriedly said: "With such a kindness, I have to let that little girl think of a good way to repay me." ”
"Hmm." Lou Yan responded coldly, and saw that he was still not in the carriage, so he said, "Is there anything else to do with the Seventh Prince?" ”
"I want to go and see the fourth brother......"
"His Royal Highness King Xiao should know that this matter is the handiwork of the Yun family, and if you go over again, it will be too late, so that he will suspect that you have ulterior motives." Lou Yan said lightly.
Jiang Yan stiffened slightly, remembering Jiang Di's suspicion, paused, only sighed, got into the carriage and left with him.
When it was approaching evening, Wei Ruyi was making pills, when he saw the grandmother next to the old lady running in person.
"Fourth Miss!"
"Mama, what's wrong?" Wei Ruyi saw that her forehead was sweating, and she thought of the elderly old concubine, and her heart sank, the old concubine in her previous life had been lingering on the sickbed, and she went there within a few years.
"After the old lady ate at night, she suddenly fainted, the doctor in the temple just happened to go home on leave for the past two days, and the slave maid heard the little master in the temple say that you know some medical skills, so ...... "Mama is a little worried that Wei Ruyi will not agree, after all, the old lady is old, and she may go if she is a little careless, which is not good and kills people, but two crimes."
Wei Ruyi is not afraid, after all, he knows that the old lady can live for a few years.
"I don't have silver needles and medicine ...... here"
"The doctor had it before." Mama said busily.
Wei Ruyi immediately put down the things in his hand: "Then Mama Lao went to get the silver needle...... Aiye also take some. ”
Mama nodded gratefully, turned her head and went, Wei Ruyi didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly went to the old lady's courtyard.
When she arrived, there were a lot of people outside the courtyard, and after Wei Ruyi entered the room, she found that the host who had not shown up was also there, and Wuchen followed her, and she was also leading a little nun.
"Only those who are close to you, everyone go out first, and then open the windows a little more." Wei Ruyi glanced at the two charcoal braziers that were burning vigorously in the room, and immediately said.
When Wuchen heard this, he immediately said, "Miss Wei, do you know how to heal?" If you are not very sure, don't heal indiscriminately, the old lady has a precious status, and it is not something you can use to fool around. ”
When the host heard this, his face was a little serious: "Miss Wei, if you are ......"
"Dare to ask Mrs. Shi, when will you go to ask for a doctor?" Wei Ruyi didn't care about those false courtesies, and asked directly.
"This ......" The host was too hesitant, and when Wuchen saw this, he became even more angry: "You dare to be too presumptuous with the host!" ”
"Now it's to save people, not to fight for a moment, the dustless master is too self-respecting!" Wei Ruyi's eyes were slightly cold, and she raised her hand to check the pulse of the old lady, but she didn't expect Wuchen to look at her, and the little nun beside the bed pushed her away.
She barely stood firm before she looked at the room: "What about the old lady's maidservant?" ”
There was no answer in the room, and the presiding teacher only frowned and did not say anything.
Seeing this, Wuchen snorted lightly: "Miss Wei, this is the Zongmiao, and the people here are all fellow Daoists who have escaped into the empty door, how can there be any maids......
"You bastard!" Wei Ruyi immediately scolded.
Wuchen was slightly confused, and saw her and said: "If the old lady has three longs and two shorts today, it is all your responsibility!" ”
"How am I ......?"
"It's not that you are making things difficult everywhere, the old lady is still saved, if you want to continue to make trouble, just wait for the funeral!" Wei Ruyi finished speaking coldly, staring at the little nun beside the bed sharply, the little nun's palms trembled, and she unconsciously took half a step back, Wei Ruyi walked quickly to the side of the bed and grabbed the old lady's pulse, and then looked at her eyes and tongue, and had a judgment in her heart.
She took out a piece of ginseng from her sleeve and put it under her tongue, just as the old lady also came back with silver needles and mugwort leaves.
Seeing her coming, Wei Ruyi's tense heart was relieved, otherwise if the old lady really had three longs and two shorts today, looking at Wuchen's face, most of them would be counted on herself.
She said softly: "Mama Lao invited all the people in the house out, I wrote the recipe, and then asked someone to catch it and fry it." ”
When the old lady heard this, her eyebrows twisted, she must have said that she should have told everyone to go out, I'm afraid these people didn't listen.
She stood up straight, the kindness on her face faded, and there was only the coldness and seriousness of living in the deep palace for a long time: "Old slave, send you out." ”
"Don't dare, the poor nuns will go outside the house to chant and pray for the old lady." The host was too busy to lower his eyes, and after speaking, he took everyone out, and Wuchen didn't dare to raise his eyelids, so he left in a gray manner.
When everyone went out, Wei Ruyi immediately started acupuncture.
Because of her full attention, she didn't notice that it was dark outside, until the old lady herself lit the candle.
After the acupuncture was finally completed, she only felt that the skeleton of her whole body was scattered, but she was relieved to see the old lady's breathing slowly smoothing out.
"Fourth Miss, is it okay?"
"It should be fine, the old lady is old, and it is normal to be afraid of the cold, but two charcoal braziers are really not necessary, just ask the kitchen to prepare some warm soup, and then change some soup women, and wait for the beginning of May, the weather will be warm." Wei Ruyi smiled, but he didn't know that his lips were white.
Finish.
The old lady breathed a sigh of relief and looked at her lovingly: "The fourth lady is working hard, and if she has nothing to do, go back and rest, the old slave is guarding here." ”
"Let's wait a minute......" Wei Ruyi was not very relieved, after all, Wuchen was a troublemaker: "Then Wuchen Master, where did it come from?" "She looks at the dust-free right is quite big, in this royal temple, there is such a big right, the origin should not be simple.
"She is a member of the queen's family, and she was originally a low-ranking concubine in the palace, and now the host is too indecisive, but she is not a bad person." The old lady didn't hide it from her at all, because since she mentioned it, it must have been something that this dustless party had done.
When Wei Ruyi heard this, he only smiled, and didn't talk about it in detail, these things, Mama, a person in the palace, must know better than herself, just click to the end.
The old lady watched her go to serve the medicine, but the smile in her eyes was more, and then she looked at the old lady who was finally old, sighed softly, and walked over to tuck the quilt for her.
The night passed.
Early the next morning, Wei Ruyi struggled to wake up from his sleepiness and was about to visit the old lady, when he found a tall man standing in the room.
She was stunned before she saw him turn around with a smile: "Are you awake?" I was just about to call you, the father-in-law is outside, you should quickly pack up. ”
Wei Ruyi looked at Wu Ninghou, who came in without a sound, and suddenly had a feeling of fear.
He came in quietly, what did he want to do?
She hid the doubts in her heart, Zhiyu soon ran in with red eyes, and Wu Ninghou also went out.
"Miss, you're alright." Zhiyu cried.
"I'm fine, what's going on with the holy decree outside, and my father's ......" Wei Ruyi was full of questions, Zhiyu hurriedly opened the burden and took out a new set of clothes, before explaining: "There have been a lot of things going on in the Hou Mansion these days, and your grandfather's family is ......" Zhiyu looked at Wei Ruyi's tired look, swallowed the words again, and only said: "There is news from the palace, you are allowed to go home, but the concubine wants to see you first, and the queen also came to see you." ”
Concubine Roujia wants to see her, she can understand, but what does the queen want to see her?
After Wei Ruyi briefly freshened up, he opened the door and found Wu Ninghou standing in the corner with a gloomy face. ”
Wei Ruyi suddenly had a bad premonition, but she knew that the rain brought too little information, and she couldn't guess it at all.
Before getting into the carriage, she stopped Zhiyu and said: "You don't have to enter the palace with me, the old lady is still waiting for me to see her today, I'm afraid I won't be able to go this time, you go and kowtow to the old lady for me." ”
Zhiyu looked at her slightly gloomy eyes, understood in his heart, took a step back and nodded, and when he saw her get into the carriage and leave, he immediately turned his head and went to the old lady's courtyard, but he didn't see Wuchen who had been hiding in the corner with an angry face!
