Chapter 143: Nightmare
(pink 120 plus)
for they will go up to the king's house. Don't dress too casually, Yu Yu got up early and let Xiao Man help comb a regular hairstyle, bring a few simple and chic hairpins, the autumn weather is dry, although the scars on her face have disappeared, but she still applied a thin layer of snow cream on her face, and changed into a satin skirt with light green corners embellished with morning glory, which is refreshing and not rude.
The twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, who has a look every day, looks in the mirror and feels very satisfied, only hoping that the baby fat on her white and tender little face and cheeks can be eliminated as soon as possible.
Lu Zhi had already packed up and waited for her in the living room, the brother and sister only told Lu that they were going to Chang'an to visit friends, Lu thought they were going to visit Cheng Xiaofeng's sister and brother who came home last time, and got up early to steam a basket of potato cake for them to take away, and the brother and sister carried it when they went out.
After getting into the carriage, Yi Yucai pointed to the food box and said to Lu Zhi: "This can't be brought to King Wei, why don't we eat it for lunch at noon." ”
Lu Zhi glanced at the food box and said, "Let's put it first." ”
The car traveled for at least half an hour before entering Chang'an City, and after another two quarters of an hour it arrived on the street opposite the Wei Palace, and Yu Yu was helped off the carriage by Lu Zhi. Tidy up his skirt and look up at the high and wide plaque at the main gate of the palace opposite, compared to the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, he had a solemn atmosphere.
As soon as they took a few steps forward, they saw a carved incense cart passing in front of them, which was parked outside the gate of the palace.
A little girl who looked like a maid got out of the car first, opened the curtain, supported a beautiful lady in a pink dress and a red dress, raised her eyes and saw the silhouette of the Lu family brothers and sisters two feet away, frowned slightly, and opened her mouth to call:
"Mr. Lu."
Lu Zhi was about to call the porter, when he heard someone calling him behind him, he turned his head together with Yiyu and saw Changsun Xian standing on the side of the carriage, he nodded lightly and replied:
"Miss Eldest Sun."
Changsun Xian lightly lifted the shawl on the crook of her lower arm, stepped forward, stopped three steps in front of the two, and said to Lu Zhi with a slight smile on her soft face: "I didn't expect to meet you here." ”
Lu Zhi just smiled and didn't answer, turned around and went to the door to hand over the name post, Yi Yu turned his head sideways from her in, Changsun Xian was cold in place for a while, the atmosphere was slightly embarrassing, there was no displeasure on her face, she stretched out her hand to signal the maid to go over and hand over the name post, and she asked lightly to Yi Yu:
"What is the matter with you at the palace?"
In the face of this slightly harsh question. Yi Yu didn't even look back, but he didn't hear it, Changsun Xian's eyes narrowed slightly, and said, "You don't have good ears, didn't you hear what I asked you?" ”
Hearing the ridicule in her words, Yi Yu turned her head sideways to look at her, with a trace of doubt on her white little face, "Miss Changsun is talking to me?" I remember that the last time I tested etiquette, you seemed to have a good evaluation, how did you forget the most basic politeness when talking to people, and you didn't name names, how do I know if you are talking to yourself. ”
Changsun Xian was choked back by her few words, her face stiffened, and after seeing her smooth little face clearly, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she was seen by Yu Yu in her eyes, sneering in her heart.
After Changsun Xian was silent for a moment, and was about to speak, she saw Lu Zhi walking over in two steps and said to Yi Yu, "Let's go in." ”
"Hmm."
As soon as the two turned around, Changsun Xian's maid walked quickly to her side. "Miss, there are no guests in the palace now."
"Don't see a guest?" Eldest Sun Xian stared at the Lu family brothers and sisters who walked into the door, as well as the steward who greeted them, her face instantly turned cold, until their backs disappeared from sight, and then she turned around and walked towards the carriage.
***
The steward took the Lu family brothers and sisters to the door of the small courtyard where Lu Zhi had been yesterday and retreated, and Yi Yu was in a good mood when he saw the eldest grandson Xian change his face at the gate of the palace, and the nervousness of seeing King Wei also faded.
The two entered the quiet courtyard, and Yi Yu was slightly surprised when he saw a young man in a strong suit guarding the door of a room, and recognized that it was Ah Sheng, who he hadn't seen for a long time.
Ah Sheng smiled politely at them, "Master Lu, the master let Miss Lu go in alone, you can wait outside for a while." ”
Lu Zhi looked at Yi Yu hesitantly, and after seeing her nod slightly, he took a step back, asked Ah Sheng to open the door, and watched her walk in alone.
The room was very dark, and it took a moment for Yu Yu's eyes to get used to seeing things clearly after entering, and his guess about Li Tai's symptoms was more certain.
She walked to the end of the foyer, and stopped when she saw a layer of curtains, she just glanced at the faint figure on the other side of the curtain, and a sense of depression suddenly rushed over her.
She lowered her head, bowed and said, "Your Highness." ”
"What did Yao Buzhi teach you?"
As soon as this hoarse and deep voice sounded, she remembered the voice of the person who asked behind the curtain that night, and presumably Li Tai recognized her at that time, so he didn't make much trouble.
Back to His Royal Highness, Yao Huang at first just told some stories about poison to the little girl. After a long time, I taught the little girl how to identify herbs and poisons......"
Yu Yu told the general situation when he got along with Yao Huang, but only concealed the matter of the pitch-black flat box he gave her at the end.
After Li Tai listened, he said in a deep voice: "In this way, you have only studied with him for about twenty days. ”
"Hmm." Yi Yu heard the meaning of his words, poison is a foreign science, Li Tai is very likely to be a very powerful poison, how can she easily trust her, a little girl who has only studied for twenty days.
After a moment of silence, Li Taicai whispered again: "Do you know a poison called Nightmare. ”
Rao is Yu Yu was prepared, hearing him mention those two words, his heart still "groaned", thinking of the purpose of this trip, his emotions stabilized again, and replied softly: "The little girl knows that this is a very powerful poison, the poisoned person will have insomnia in the first month, and then the poison will be incubated for three to seven years, the date of the poison is uncertain, once the poison is made, if the eyes see the sun, then every time after falling asleep, there will be nightmares." ”
Yao Huang didn't tell her about this kind of poison, but it was embroidered on the silk silk in the box, because it involved the future detoxification, so she deliberately modified the last sentence. After the poison of the nightmare, seeing the sun will not only give you nightmares, but also dream of one of the most painful past in the heart of the poisoned person.
This is the only poison related to both sunlight and eyes among the eighteen poisons on the silk silk, and it is the most terrible thing that torments the human spirit compared to those poisons that torture the human body.
Think about it, how can people not sleep, at least three hours a day or so, these quarters of the time are spent experiencing the most terrible past over and over again, people who are not strong in mind, after the nightmare poison, life is worse than death. There will always be a nightmare when you will have a nervous breakdown, and the only way to avoid it is to avoid the sun, but this is not another kind of torture!
Nightmares, as the name suggests, once poisoned, must be haunted by nightmares, and can only be relieved until death.
The room fell silent, and Yu Yu stood there quietly waiting, and after some time, a slight sigh that seemed to be a hallucination came into her ears:
"You'll understand."
"The little girl needs to look at the symptoms of the poisoned person before she can be conclusive." The method of detoxification, recorded on the silk silk, but the nightmare poison is divided into three stages, the first three days are relatively gentle, and the next ten days of medicine can be treated, after the thirteen days, it is a little tricky.
"Come in and help the king see if this poison can be cured." At this point, Li Tai clearly told about his poisoning.
Yi Yu hesitated for a moment, lowered his head and took a step forward to lift the curtain, stared at the ground and walked to a soft collapse, where incense was burning, and it smelled faint outside, but when he entered it, he felt stronger.
I don't know if it's her delusion, the momentum on Li Tai's body has eased, making her feel a little more comfortable, the room is dim, she can't see things clearly, so naturally she can't help him check.
Yi Yu vaguely saw a candlestick standing next to the couch, and said softly: "Your Highness, can you light wax, the candlelight has little effect on the eyes." "It is said that after the nightmare is poisoned, you will have nightmares when you see the sun, and the silk silk records that such as candlelight. It also has subtle effects, and mild cases can cause unstable sleep.
"Hmm."
There was a fire fold on the side of the candlestick, she groped twice to find it, lit the candle, and the room suddenly lit up a little, and she also saw clearly the man lying on the couch beside her, Rao is she has seen Li Tai many times, and now her eyes still flashed with amazement.
The handsome face with light eyes exuded a quiet color in the faint light, a white middle coat was draped over a robe, the belt was loose, a black hair was scattered on the soft collapse, and the lower body was only covered with a light yellow silk quilt, which could not hide the slender figure.
She has seen Li Tai, who was indifferent when she was a teenager, Li Tai, who was handsome and uncast in silver crowns and jade clothes under the sun, and Li Tai, who was dressed in bright blue and expensive at the night banquet.
I've seen many sides of this person, but I can't see through what kind of person he is, originally his impression in her heart was a little autistic, and then a little ruthless, and then it was incomprehensible.
He was just lying here, not at all like a patient who had been tormented by nightmares, and according to the time, he should have been at least three days after the nightmare poison, but he lay so quietly, with no pain on his face, his brows loose, and his breath was even.
"How?"
A whisper brought the relic back to her senses, she put away her stunned expression, bowed down in front of the couch, and bent down, "Your Highness, the little girl needs to look at your eyes first." ”
After all, the candlelight is a little dim, in order to see clearly, the distance between the two is only one foot, Li Tai listened to her, slowly opened her eyes, Qingbi's pupils made her feel a little dazzling, her eyes looked at each other, but she couldn't see her reflection in the other party's eyes.
Being stared at by such a pair of beautiful eyes, anyone will be a little uncomfortable, and Yiyu is no exception, and after being slightly stunned, he said: "Your Highness, forgive the little girl for offending." ”
