He Danggui bowed his head and said: "This is naturally the best, I hope you can keep your word this time, although I don't have much hope." ”

Meng Xuan pointed at Bai Yangbai and said, "There is a Taoist saint as a witness, are you still afraid that I will repay the debt?" ”

He Angelica said stiffly: "His nickname is 'old liar', and his reputation is not much better than yours." ”

At this time, Bai Yangbai, who was nominated, was already sweating on his head, his face was cramping, and even the grass around him was bald. It's strange, how could these two people discuss Qian Peony and Qian Narcissus in a good manner, and suddenly they discussed the anger, first talked about He Yatou's heart, and then talked about Meng Xiaozi's reputation, and now the two of them have reached the point of settling old accounts and cutting off their robes and righteousness! It's confusing.

Because the sky was darkening, the sun was sinking and the moon was rising, and Meng Xuan and He Angelica had nothing to say for a while, so the three of them sat silently on the grass shrouded in twilight for a moment. In the end, Bai Yangbai took the lead in breaking this cold and hard silence and asked, "Girl, will this woman continue to be saved?" He pointed to Qian Peony, who had a silver needle on her face on the ground, and at this time she not only had nosebleeds, but also her eyes, mouth and ears began to ooze black blood lines outward, and her head and shoulders were slightly swinging, which looked particularly terrifying.

He Angelica immediately turned around and collected the needle when he heard this, muttering while collecting it: "Advice and good way, don't stop, don't humiliate yourself, this Qian Peony takes my advice as a deaf ear, she brings about her own destruction, what else can I say, Bai Yangbai, you go to Zhan Yu and come and cut her." ”

"Huh? Do you really want to cut it? Bai Yangbai's eyes widened, "Isn't your medical skill the best in the world?" ”

"Although my medical skills are good," He Angelica said angrily, "but my medical ethics are not good, and after weighing the pros and cons, I feel that it is too troublesome to save her, so I simply don't save her, and she will not do my business." "In fact, the real reason is that she doesn't know much about the types of Gu poison and the method of dissolution, and she has heard Jiu Gu say that usually there is a Gu and a poison, and only the Gu person himself can unravel that poison, according to the current situation analysis, the one who is under the Gu is probably Qian Peony's sister or family member, and it is difficult for outsiders to distinguish this kind of thing. Besides, what Meng Xuan said is not wrong, she is an extremely selfish person, she crawled back from hell and she is not specialized in helping the world, there should not be a doctor in the world who has more medical skills than Luo Maitong.

Bai Yangbai nodded and said: "That's right, it's really good that you can think like this, girl, I don't like you the most, that is, you like to take everything on your body, and in the end you complain and get yourself hurt, why bother!" Now you can think about it, it's great! As he spoke, he wanted to stand up, but was stopped by He Angelica, only to see her tear off another piece of fabric at the symmetrical place of his other sleeve and wrap all her silver needles. Bai Yangbai sighed: "You will also bully my old man, and I can't find the second one." ”

Meng Xuan couldn't help but remind: "Be careful not to prick your hands, that is highly poisonous, you must treat it carefully before using the needle next time, first polish it with fine sandpaper, then soak it in silver liquid for three days, and then ...... it."

"Don't bother, I know more than you," He Angelica threw out a somewhat choking sentence, and then turned his head to Bai Yangbai, who was watching the play, and routinely ordered, "There is nothing I can do here, so I will go home first, and you can tell Qing'er that you can't accompany her to Yihong Courtyard at night." Wait for the head of Zhan to come, let him just cut off a right hand, seventy percent of the poison is sealed on this hand, after cutting off the hand, Qian Peony can live for another twenty years, the academy must have invited her parents, if they have no objection then cut it off as soon as possible, my silver needle sealing point can only last less than an hour. That's it, there you go. ”

Bai Yangbai returned the four little puppets in his arms to He Angelica, and said with a smile: "These four are not as good-looking as the one hanging by your bedside, it is the little girl and the little pig, and the face of the little girl is you, roaring." ”

He Angelica looked him up and down suspiciously: "The surname is Bai, you won't ...... Have you ever infiltrated Luofu in disguise? ”

"You guessed it!" Bai Yangbai seemed to forget about Qian Peony, who was dying, and sat cross-legged on the grass loudly, and began to recall his bad deeds, "Anyway, a year ago, the poor road traveled all over the world to the door of your house, pretending to be a maid who had just entered the corner door, the little guy who was the gatekeeper called Aristolochia, and after opening the door to me, I was dumbfounded, after all, the maid just walked in and turned around, ho, his expression is really interesting." When I entered the door, I met the steward Li of the garden, who had to mourn for a month when someone died in his old house, so I disguised myself as him and worked as a steward in your house for a month, and also helped him receive a month's salary. Girl, I still talked to you in Luofu. ”

He Angelica said coldly: "You are so bored, you don't get drunk and lie on the knees of beauties for a lot of good time, wake up and take charge of the world, and actually hide in the corners of Luofu to plant flowers." ”

Bai Yangbai squeezed his eyes at her and smiled: "I don't just plant flowers, once in the evening I disguised myself as your old lady and went to your Taoyao Courtyard to beg for tea, you just obediently made tea for me to drink, I asked you to beat my shoulder, I asked you to rub my legs, you looked at me suspiciously, and I was so scared that I immediately left, girl, do you remember?" That time you were dressed really coolly, and I persuaded you to wear more clothes, but you said you were not cold......"

He Angelica gritted his teeth: "I'll strangle you." ”

"But I've also done some good things," Bai Yangbai hurriedly regained his image, "There were two times when the little daughter-in-law surnamed Dong ran to find trouble with you, and wanted to take Luo Shizhu's milk doll back to her, but the milk doll didn't leave, and the little daughter-in-law ran up to pull and beat and scold you, all of which were relieved of the siege by the 'old lady' dressed up as a poor road." Afterwards, I also ran to her glass hall to scold her, didn't you notice, she rarely went to you for a while. And your second aunt, she pleaded with the old lady to wrap your little feet, and added lime alkali to the gauze that wrapped the feet, and had to let people wrap you on the spot in front of the old lady, and then you went back to dismantle the cloth and found that the feet were burned out of a layer of blisters, and I knew that I would avenge you. ”

He Angelica's eyes shrank suddenly: "Why did you take revenge?" ”

Bai Yang Bai Gaga laughed sheepishly: "I walked in as her father-in-law, added two catties of chili powder to the hot spring in her backyard, and stole her change of clothes and a few belly pockets, and hung them on the main road where people came and went—but I definitely didn't peek at her bathing, and I shirked when she asked me to rub her back." ”

"Bai Yangbai, you are really boring," He Angelica said coldly, "In the future, you must not sneak into Luofu to approach that woman, the female guard next to her daughter is superb in martial arts and kills without blinking, once your identity is recognized, a group of women and Taoists have never heard of any bullshit Dao Sheng, and then they will be punished in eighteen ways, and then they will make you an adult and store them in the east toilet, and you will have no place to cry." ”

Bai Yangbai clutched his chest and said, "I'm so scared, I'm so afraid, girl, you are not allowed to scare the old man, I have been scared since I was a child." ”

Meng Xuan, who was listening, was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "Dao Sheng, I have investigated your life and know that you are now a thirty-four or five-year-old man in the prime of life, and the girl is just the cardamom age, no matter how disrespectful you are and like to joke, you really shouldn't tease her like this, please be careful about men and women in the future, don't do that kind of thing again." ”

Bai Yangbai pouted and looked at He Angelica as if asking for help, but He Angelica didn't open her mouth to help, she didn't want Bai Yangbai to do that kind of thing again, she didn't want to see the "old lady" in the future, she had to distinguish the truth first, and she didn't want Bai Yangbai to provoke Sun Meiniang's poisonous woman again. Second, she has quarreled with Meng Xuan enough today, but she didn't expect that the little master who was cited by her as a confidant and guiding light, a smart young man who had the same experience as her, broke all her dependence and illusions when they met again, not only was she unreasonable, she was harshly interrogated everywhere, and wanted to hear all her secrets, as if she owed him a lot, and she also came to expose her scars, and mentioned it one by one Ning Wang Zhu Quan.

She hadn't heard the name "Zhu Quan" for a year, thinking that it would be calm, and she would never be like three years ago, and she was plagued by nightmares every night. Unexpectedly, when she heard that name again, she still couldn't be as calm as she imagined, and she still had the horror of being drained of all her strength.

Especially that Feng Yang has to come to see Jiugu several times every year, and then turn around and go to her, carrying all kinds of gifts of unknown meaning, and threatening her that if she doesn't accept it, she will turn it over to the old lady, but the name is different, she accepts it as a "gift from a friend", and the old lady receives it as a "dowry from King Ning". Yes, Ning Yuan, who fled in a hurry three years ago, has already indicated his identity through the mouth of Fengyang, and also said that his "original intention will not change", and "the time will tell". What kind of original intention, what kind of timing, did he treat her as a lamb to the slaughter? First put it in Luofu to fatten up, and then take it out from Luofu to set up a slaughtering table?

During this time, she gradually became anxious, she would be fourteen years old after the New Year, ordinary children are always happy at the moment of a new year old and a new dress, but she is trembling at Zhu Quan's threatening words. Especially, when she thought that the previous life was not long after the New Year's Festival, she saved Zhu Quan's nurse, and then a matchmaker came to the door, and a few simple words decided the identity of King Ning's concubine who had been haunted by her life like a nightmare, and a green mantle sedan chair from the north came every few days, and after a long journey, she sneakily carried her in from the back door of the palace.

How could she repeat that nightmare? It's not like she hasn't resisted. A year ago, she was unwilling to accept such a fateful arrangement, and wanted to fight back once, make Zhu Quan suffer some hardships, and put an end to his vicious thoughts. So she sent Xiaoyou to Daning to collect evidence of King Ning's long-term absence from various official duties in Daning during the period when King Ning was stranded in Yangzhou.

With this evidence, coupled with the jade pendant in her hand, she can write a whistle-blowing letter to accuse Zhu Quan of leaving the station without permission, although it is an old matter, but there is a green dragon jade pendant given to Zhu Quan by the emperor as evidence, plus the situation in the capital is more tense than in previous years, a straw stick can muddy a pool of water. When King Ning's underground activities such as leaving his fiefdom and befriending the young masters of the big gangs in the rivers and lakes are revealed, there will be good deeds who will immediately dig up the entire iceberg and show it to the emperor. When Zhu Quan was busy trying to remedy his image in the emperor's heart, he would no longer have the leisure to hunt for curiosities.

But half a month later, Xiaoyou returned from Daning, bringing back not evidence of King Ning's absence, but the glorious deeds of his 800 rounds of battle with the generals in the Daxiao field at that time. That is to say, when Ning Yuan was healing in Luofu, King Ning also showed up in Daning at the same time, so not only could the green dragon jade pendant in her hand not be turned into evidence, but once Zhu Quan bit back, accusing her of stealing the royal property, or accusing her of accepting the thief's stolen goods, and secretly hiding the dragon pendant with bad intentions, then she would be escorted to the capital by Jinyi Wei to "talk to her heart" with Cheng Tienan of Dali Temple.

Just when she was thinking a lot and had nothing to do, a smiling Feng Yang appeared in front of her eyes, poured a basin of ice water on her head, and told her a news that made her frightened and desperate - Xiaoyou went to Daning to inquire about the news, as soon as she entered Daning, she was immediately detected by Zhu Quan, plus Zhu Quan had seen Xiaoyou in Luofu, and then contacted Xiaoyou to check the content of the military mansion in the past few days, he had already guessed that she sent Xiaoyou to turn over his old accounts.

Feng Yang smiled and told her that it was her blessing to be photographed by his friends, and she should be grateful for such a blessing, and she should not make any small moves behind her back, Mo said that King Ning's status would not be shaken at all, even if there was really anything wrong, according to his temperament, it would only stimulate his possessiveness and desire to conquer more, and there was no reason to let her go away alone. Feng Yang especially revealed that King Ning originally wanted to wait another year or two, but now it seems that he can't wait, every time he mentions her name, his eyes will always be very bright.

After sending away the smiling and ambiguous Fengyang, she hid alone behind the rockery in a daze, but she didn't expect that today's young man Zhu Quan was already so insidious, deep and leaky, and now it seems that she has nothing to do with him, what should I do? Looking for someone to help? The person she thought of was not Duan Xiaolou, who repeatedly asked him before returning to Beijing, that he must fly a pigeon to inform him if there is something. Although Duan Xiaolou vowed to protect her, why did she keep occupying his care and attention, his mother had already married him and Guan Yun. Since she didn't love him, she shouldn't continue to provoke him, and force him to the opposite side of King Ning, she already owed him countless favors.

In this way, in extreme anxiety, the first face that came to her mind was Meng Xuan, and then she thought of Bai Yangbai.

Bai Yangbai is Zhu Quan's teacher, although Bai Yangbai has not disclosed this matter to herself, but if she finds Bai Yangbai, he will be a lobbyist and run to Zhu Quan to lower his posture and ask for mercy, maybe Zhu Quan will let her go. If this road doesn't work, she will try to contact Meng Xuan again, let him do a scene, go to the old lady to ask her to be a concubine first, and then she will beat the side drum from the side, and she will definitely be able to make this happen. If these two methods are blocked, she can only go to Sanqingguan to visit her mother in the name of never returning, leaving Luofu forever, incognito and changing her face to start again.

Although she hadn't seen Meng Xuan for three years, and although she didn't have a deep relationship with Meng Xuan, she always had a sense of relief every time she thought of this person, because this person made her feel that she was not a rootless pile of fluffy grass, which could break in the wind at any time. Ever since she learned that he had died on the battlefield in the early years of Jianwen, and then returned to the Meng family as a baby, she had let go of her guard against this young man who had the same experience as her, and had a sense of dependence that even she couldn't believe, after all, in her past and present lives, she had never had anyone to rely on, and she had long since learned to never rely on anyone.

She relied on Meng Xuan, regarded Meng Xuan as a confidant and a relative, and even couldn't help but want to tell him her secrets. But she was afraid of repeating the experience of the previous life, mistrusting someone, shaking off her hole cards, and finally realizing that she was blind to the wrong person.

Although she holds his secrets, he is so powerful, both on the outside and on the inside, he has the confidence to entrust the secrets to others, but she has not yet found the courage to trust others. In such contradictions and sorrows, every time she faced his honest eyes and bright smile, she had a heartfelt sense of guilt, in order not to make herself suffer more, or she couldn't hold back and leak her secrets, so she deliberately treated him coldly, and deliberately ignored his kindness to her that was beyond the "inheritance agreement".

After Meng Xuan left, she thought that she would never learn to trust people, and she would have to cover her biggest secret alone all her life, covering her heartache and sadness, and seeing through the world with a detached attitude until the earth was desolate, but a fat girl named Liao Qinger appeared in her life.

After the opening ceremony three years ago, she suddenly had an extra friend, Liao Qinger. Just because both of them are different from each other in the academy, and they can sometimes get along with each other as the same kind, although Qing'er's personality is weird, but it does not disgust her, so Qing'er became her "friend" who went in and out of the academy together. On the fifth day of her relationship with Qing'er, Qing'er suddenly muttered in a low voice, she was from another time and space - at that time, Qing'er thought she couldn't understand, but she thought that Qing'er was a person like her, and secretly cited her as a confidant, and her attitude towards Liao Qing'er was much friendlier.

Half a year ago, at the dragon boat party, when Qing'er was dying, they learned each other's secrets, she knew that Qing'er's situation was completely different from her, but from a future time and space, Qing'er also quickly understood the situation of her two lives, and comforted her that this situation is very common. So after Qing'er recovered from her injury, their relationship grew by leaps and bounds, and they finally understood where each other's precocious and wonderful and bold business ideas came from.

But on the issue of Zhu Quan, Liao Qing'er can't help her, only Meng Xuan can help her, although she doesn't know if he is willing to help her, whether he is willing to marry a nominal concubine and then let her go, but she really thought about it quietly in her heart, and secretly told herself in her heart that if a person is too tired to walk, she can also find a shoulder to lean on. And Meng Xuan's shoulders must be much wider after three years, maybe he is willing to take her hand out of this puzzle and use his broad arms to pull her out of this endless sea of fog.

Now that he is reunited with Meng Xuan, he has become taller, stronger, and more reliable as she imagined, no matter how he looks at it, he looks like a man who can protect her, but what she didn't expect was that her expectation and wholehearted trust turned out to be the wrong payment to him.
