Chapter 564: Dead or Alive
When Onyx heard this, he didn't dare to reply, but only raised his eyes slightly to look at Guo Wan, secretly speculating about her thoughts.
In the spring of February, Sima Xiu received a new errand here in Guo Wan, and then, from time to time, there was news, all of which were good news, saying that the matter of Shengjing had been done, and he would rush to Penglai County in the near future.
What is worrying is that after leaving Beijing, Sima Xiu has not been heard from again. What she got today was the only news she had in the past month and a half.
"What do you see me doing? Do you want to hear me first? Guo Wan smiled, raised her fingers and held the note, like a flower branch with dew, and her posture was beautiful.
"The servant doesn't dare." Onyx hurriedly lowered his eyebrows and stood still.
Guo Wan didn't seem to care, and dangled the note on her fingertips, with a little interest in her apricot eyes: "According to me, Sima is afraid that he will be more auspicious." ”
She bent her red lips that were smeared with red lipstick, and her smile was cold and thin: "Think about it, she met the enemies of the rivers and lakes, and she was poisoned, and when she wrote to me, she didn't even know the antidote method." Look at the day of this letter, long before a month. ”
She shook her head slightly, and her eyebrows gradually became cold: "Onyx, do you think, is she dead or alive now?" ”
Onyx pondered and said cautiously: "If you see it according to the maid's shallow view, Sima still has a glimmer of life." ”
Guo Wan was silent, only Zhiyi sitting, her apricot eyes seemed to contain spring mist, and it didn't stop at her for a moment.
Onyx's heart was cold, and a layer of cold sweat suddenly oozed out, and he hurriedly buried his head lower, and said: "The maid feels that Sima is acting steadily, even if she can't do what Madame ordered, she will definitely not cause trouble to Madame." ”
"Really?" Guo Wan's red lips hooked slightly, she got up, threw the note to the magnetic bowl next to the couch, watched the water surface overflow the back of the paper, and said in a quiet voice: "Where did you start with this?" ”
"According to the maid, although Sima's letter was written urgently, the quarrel was still clear." Onyx didn't dare to hide it anymore, so she simply said it carefully: "She first told her wife about the whereabouts of this month, just because the Zhuangzi was hidden in the labyrinth and guarded by heavy soldiers, she couldn't find it, so she went back to Penglai to inquire about the news, but asked her to accidentally find that a group of people sent by the imperial court were staring at a scribe surnamed Liu. ”
She paused for a moment, as if she was considering the words, and said: "It stands to reason that since you can't find the way, you should catch a job on the spot and ask, but Sima is unwilling to take such a risk, in fact, she is still thinking about her wife. ”
"That's a bit insightful." Guo Wan said lightly, her eyes still stopped in the water bowl, and this praise was also like saying it to the air.
Onyx hurriedly bowed: "Mrs. has won the award, and the servant doesn't dare to be it." ”
Guo Wan was silent, only raised her hand.
In the lonely and shady room, her fingertips dyed red dankou happened to pass a beam of sky light in front of the window, and it was dazzlingly red.
Onyx swept his eyes and saw it, his heart was slightly terrified, and he hurriedly lowered his head and said: "The second half of the letter is also very clear. Although Sima was poisoned by the enemy, he did not dare to forget his wife's advice, and was about to torture Liu Pan and ask how to escape from the labyrinth before the court started. ”
At this point, a trace of compassion appeared on her lowered face, but her voice did not stop: "She said carefully in the letter, for fear of encountering accidents halfway, she will leave behind everything that can prove her identity in advance, and she also spent a lot of money to prepare a weapon made of ice, if she dies, others will not be able to find the murder weapon." And the only things he carried with him were the two things that his wife gave him. ”
She paused at this point, and then said, "Therefore, the maid feels that even if Sima is really dead, she will also do Madame's business." Those two things were left in the house of the scribe surnamed Liu, and when they were found on the original owner, that one had ten mouths, and he couldn't tell clearly. And Madame...... Nothing to do with this matter. ”
It was quiet in the room.
Guo Wan's eyes were lowered, as if she was distracted.
At that moment, no one noticed that her eyes also had the same compassion as Agate.
Compassion and sorrow.
She felt cold.
Even in the middle of summer in June and the weather is hot, the cold feeling will affect the whole body.
She raised her head, her eyes slightly blank, and turned out the window.
Lock the window Zhu Hu, heavy drapery deep hanging.
In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, the house is closed, and all the sound and light outside cannot penetrate it.
And in her sight, there is no midsummer light; In my ears, there was no sound of torrential rain knocking on the eaves.
Only the corner of the house Bingjian "silk" sprayed cool air, listened to the ear, like a snake to swallow.
And this is the only bit of life left in the house.
If it weren't for this sound, this house would probably be no different from a tomb.
Guo Wan retracted her gaze wistfully, turned her eyes around, and there was a bit of desolation in her dark eyes.
What is there about her not to be satisfied?
This is the main house of Nanyixuan, which is the best courtyard and the best scenery in the entire East Palace, and it is only half a point worse than the crown princess.
However, at this time, this pile of brocade embroidered tents and gorgeous ornaments suddenly lost their former glory, and turned into a large black shadow, which was heavily pressed.
Guo Wan quickly closed her eyes, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and her gorgeous face, at this moment, was so weak that it seemed to be vulnerable.
However, after a breath, she suddenly opened her eyes again, turned her head sideways, and slanted towards the depths of the green veil.
The slightly cool and delicate soft waves, like the greasy and greasy Danjiao on the stage, turn your head and fold your sleeves, you will have a thousand styles.
"I've really worked you today, and I've said so much." She lowered her eyes, looked at the dankou painted on her nails, and tilted her head slightly to the side, as if judging the luster on it: "Listen to your words, it is really worthy of me to trust your two sisters so much, and even discuss these top secret matters with you." ”
Onyx was terrified, immediately knelt down, touched the ground with his head, and said with sincere fear: "The servants are born to be the lady's people, and the death is the lady's ghost, but the lady is sent, and she will never give up." ”
Guo Wan looked at her expressionlessly, suddenly, chuckled, and raised her hand: "Okay, get up quickly, I'm just talking in vain, when you come like this, it's like my master bullying you, I can't bear it, if the outsider sees it, I'm afraid I'll be distressed to death." ”
made a joke, but taught Onyx to turn white at the moment, and said in a trembling voice: "The maid doesn't dare." ”
How dare she?
How dare she?
The only "outsider" in this Nanyi Xuan is His Royal Highness the Prince, who is under one person, above ten thousand, extremely noble, and dazzling as the rising sun in the sky!
She is a servant, but she has a little color, she has no long things, and she doesn't even have a relative to rely on, but if she dares to have a little bit of Xiao Xiang, she will die and have no place to be buried.
Don't say anything else, just say this Nan Yixuan, she can't go out.
