Chapter 107: Give me back the jade card
(Cat pounce Chinese) The imperial doctor helped Lou Yue check his body, but found a terrible wound on his back, and after reporting it to Queen Lou, everyone was shocked.
The knife wound on Lou Yue's body knew at a glance that it was injured before returning to Beijing. But as the commander-in-chief, he was so seriously injured that he didn't report it to the court?
! Mrs. Lou was heartbroken, and Queen Lou also blackened her face and summoned Nanshan to interrogate her severely.
Nanshan dared to tell the truth to Queen Lou, and only said that Lou Yue was injured on the battlefield. And in order to return to Beijing as soon as possible, he hid his injury.
Listening to Nanshan's words, Mrs. Lou scolded hatefully
"It's all to see the slut surnamed Su, so Yue'er will rush away regardless of serious injuries. And the wind chill and high fever on his body were also infected by going into the water to save the slut that day...... That slut doesn't die, my family Yue'er will die in her hands sooner or later......" After speaking, Mrs. Lou turned her head to look at Queen Lou with dissatisfaction, and said coldly
"You are a queen of the middle palace, and you can't even deal with a little cheap maid, why do you want to keep her in the world to harm my grandson?!" Facing the thunderous fire of Old Madam Lou, Queen Lou's heart was cold, thinking about the red sleeves that Fang Cai imagined with Su Liuying, and said in a cold voice
"Mother, she has left the palace and is missing, and Yue'er also promised to cut her off. At the moment, it is important to let Yue'er reduce fever and cure the disease, and the other ...... I'll talk about that later. However, the doctors of Ren Shitai Hospital took turns to fight, but they still didn't let Lou Yue get rid of his fever smoothly.
In the end, even Princess An, who was far away in the nunnery, was alarmed. After leaving the house for many years, Princess An returned to the palace again, and she felt bad in every way.
And when she saw Lou Yue, who was so sick that she was out of shape, Princess An was even more heartbroken. Knowing her son Mo Ruomu, Princess An noticed that Lou Yue was too strange to wake up from her serious illness, and then thought of seeing Su Liuying that day, and she already understood in her heart that Lou Yue was sick of heart.
Calling Nanshan aside, Princess An asked him with a serious face why Lou Yue suddenly separated from Su Liuying, and why she married a Qinglou woman as a concubine?
Now, seeing that Lou Yue was seriously ill and unconscious, Nanshan dared to hide it, but he knelt down in front of Princess An and told everything about King An's threat to Lou Yue and Su Liuying's breakup.
Hearing this, Princess An was shocked, on the one hand, she resented King An's unscrupulous means, and on the other hand, she finally understood Lou Yue's unavoidable hardship, and felt more and more sorry for her son in her heart.
After thinking for a moment, Princess An said in a deep voice to Nanshan
"Heart disease still needs heart medicine. Since you know where Hotaru is now, take me to her. Even if I kneel, I have to beg her and let her come to see Yue'er - maybe she came, Yue'er's heart knot was untied, and she naturally woke up. As long as Lou Yue can wake up, Nanshan is willing to do anything, and immediately leads Princess An out to the post house to find Su Liuying.
On the way there, Nanshan hesitated
"Does the princess want to tell Miss Su the truth of the matter?" Princess An had a sad face, thinking about King An's always murderous methods, she silently closed her eyes and said in pain
"It's about her life, that's why Yue'er would rather she hate him than tell her all the truth...... How could I push Yue'er into danger just because I was worried about her...... If she dies in the hands of the prince in the end, it will still be Yue'er who suffers...... "Princess An knows Su Liuying, if she knows that everything is forced by Lou Yue, she will definitely be with Lou Yue regardless of her life."
Princess An knows Prince An better, if Su Liuying dares to openly oppose him and threaten the future of the Lou family, he will do anything...... Her heart was full of ice and snow, and thinking that Princess An forced Lou Yue to make a poisonous oath in her own name, Princess An's heart became more and more cold...... When Princess An went to the post house to find Su Liuying, she was cleaning the walls outside the courtyard with Anu at that time.
There are already many mosquitoes in summer, and there is a large blood stain on the wall outside the courtyard where Han Yu is located, which even tempts the mosquitoes to fly into the yard.
Anu and Su Liuying brought well water to clean the blood stains on the walls. Anu always felt that this blood stain was coming strangely, and couldn't help but look at Xiao Mo's courtyard next door with suspicion, and muttered to Su Liuying dissatisfied, saying that it must be Xiao Mo who took revenge on them for locking him outside the courtyard last time and deliberately put blood stains on their walls.
Su Liuying didn't think so, although Xiao Mo usually acted frivolously and was not serious, she knew that he was not really like this inside.
On the contrary, she felt that Xiao Mo was not only not a merry man, but a wise person with grand ambitions.
On the face, she softly persuaded Anu Dao
"It shouldn't be Prince Xiao's doing, he is the prince of a country, so he won't do such a boring thing......"
"Or my little fool understands me!" Without waiting for Anu to reply, the slanted voice was inserted into Xiao Mo's smooth tone.
The two looked back, and at some point, Xiao Mo was lazily leaning against the opposite wall with a folding fan in his hand, looking at Su Liuying with peach blossom eyes, and when he saw her coming, he raised his lips and smiled at her evilly.
Su Liuying had long been accustomed to his frivolous demeanor, so she turned back and continued to do her work without changing her face, but Anu was blushed by his appearance, and ignored him angrily and ashamedly.
When they turned their heads, Xiao Mo's eyes turned dark, and he looked at the blood stains on the wall with a dark expression.
The next moment, seeing the person coming from a distance, Xiao Mo's expression instantly converged a lot, put away his body and was about to walk towards his yard, but Nanshan, who was walking in front, saw him, caught up with him in two steps, bowed respectfully to him and thanked him, and said
"Thank you for the prince's help last time, but my family has not recovered for the time being, and the slave thanked the prince for the prince." frowned slightly, Xiao Mo had also heard the news that Lou Yue was seriously ill, but he didn't expect his condition to be so serious.
The light of his eyes swept lightly from the sad face of Princess An, and Princess An also saw him, and her face was suddenly startled.
Seeing the discomfort on Princess An's face, Xiao Mo turned around and walked towards his courtyard in a dashing manner, and closed the courtyard door with his hand.
Seeing him leave, the pressure on Princess An plummeted. And Su Liuying, who was working with her head down, also found Princess An, and was surprised, so she hurriedly put down the things in her hand and greeted her, welcoming Princess An into the courtyard.
Anu also recognized Princess An and went to the kitchen to pour tea. Su Liuying looked at Princess An who appeared in the post house and was already surprised, and when she saw Princess An's sad face, her heart tightened and asked
"What's wrong with the princess?" Before the words came out, tears flowed first, and Princess An said sadly
"Yue'er has a high fever that doesn't go away, and she can't wake up...... Aunt Rui wants to beg you to go and see him......" The whole body was cold, Su Liuying couldn't believe what she heard, and said in disbelief
"Why did you get sick all of a sudden...... Isn't it okay to come here a few days ago......" Without waiting for Princess An to speak, Nanshan on the side couldn't help but speak
"The blood stains you cleaned just now are the ones left by the last time you left this courtyard when you stood unsteadily against the wall...... Ye was seriously injured, the last time I rescued you from the lotus pond, the wound cracked, and I contracted the wind cold, and I haven't been better......" After listening to Nanshan, Su Liuying was shocked to realize that Lou Yue's face was indeed unusual when he came here last time, but he didn't know that he actually came here with illness to find himself...... said that it was good to cool down and forget the heart or hurt it, and Su Liuying's whole heart was tightly clenched.
Su Liuying knew that if Lou Yue was not seriously ill, Princess An would not leave the nunnery and return to the capital, let alone come to the post house to find herself.
Almost without hesitation, she didn't even bother to change her clothes, Su Liuying got up and said hurriedly
"I'll go with you!" Seeing that she agreed, Princess An's heart was slightly relieved. Su Liuying, who walked to the door, suddenly remembered something, paused slightly, and said to Princess An
"The princess will wait for me at the door first...... I'll talk to my son-in-law. ”
"You can go in peace!" Behind him, Han Yu's voice was as warm as a pearl. Su Liuying looked back in a daze, and saw Han Yu pushing a four-wheeled cart and sitting on the steps, looking at her with gentle eyes, and a faint and warm smile on the corner of her mouth.
Looking at him, Su Liuying's flustered heart calmed down. She was originally worried that he would not agree to see Lou Yue by herself, because she had firmly said in front of him that she had nothing to do with Lou Yue...... With gratitude in her heart, Su Liuying turned back to the house and picked up a thin blanket from the couch to cover him on his knees.
Han Yu's legs were frozen in the snow, even in this hot weather, his legs were still cold.
She said as she covered him with a thin blanket
"Childe, I'll be back soon, I'll play chess with you in the evening." Han Yu's eyes looked at her pale little face gently, and seeing the panic and uneasiness in her eyes, his heart ached, but his face smiled lightly
"Take good care of the prince, I will prepare chess and wait for you to come back." Princess An led Su Liuying back to Lou Yue's Nan Courtyard, but was stopped at the door of Lou Yue's bedroom by Su Shiyu, led by Mrs. Lou, and did not let Su Liuying in.
Old Madam Lou's eyes fell coldly from Princess An's face to Su Liuying's face, and Su Shiyu watched Princess An bring Su Liuying back to the palace, and her face was also very ugly.
Old Madam Lou said coldly to Princess An
"What are you bringing back this slut for? Don't you know that she was the one who killed your son? Princess An's face turned pale,
"Old lady......"
"Also, you left the palace ruthlessly in your early years, but I am afraid that you will no longer regard Yue'er as your son. Monks, pay attention to the six roots of tranquility, the old body does not blame you. But you and I will bring this scourge back and mutilate Yue'er's old body, but you will not follow! Before Princess An could speak, Mrs. Lou had already reprimanded her unceremoniously in person.
Hearing this, Princess An's face was even paler as paper - back then, she insisted on leaving the palace, and everyone in the palace was opposed, and the most fierce opposition was Mrs. Lou.
The princess of the dignified An Wangfu became a nun, but it was a matter of losing face to the entire An Wangfu. From the time she was given marriage and married into King An's mansion, Mrs. Lou disliked her identity as a Hu Di person, and always pointed to Sang scolding Huai and saying that Hu Di was a barbarian, and then because of her monk, she was even more disgusted with her to the extreme.
And Su Liuying is a thorn in the eyes of Mrs. Lou, and she is not unhappy. So seeing the two of them appear in front of them together, Mrs. Lou's anger was like a volcano that had been accumulated for a long time, and it was about to erupt.
Looking at the anger on Mrs. Lou's face, Princess An hurriedly blocked her body in front of Su Liuying and said earnestly
"Old lady, the only thing to do is to let Yue'er wake up with fever first......"
"Will she wake up when she comes to Yue'er! If it weren't for the fact that you were his mother's concubine, do you think this An Wangfu would let you in again after letting you go for decades? Mrs. Lou looked at Princess An with gloomy eyes, and did not back down at all, let alone get out of the way.
"Old lady, no matter what, Yue'er has become like this, you have to try any method......" Princess An pleaded bitterly.
"No, it's just that she caused Yue'er to become like this, it's polite not to ask for her life, how can she get close to Yue'er's body......" Old Madam Lou and Princess An couldn't hold each other at the door, but Su Liuying stood silently.
Through the half-open door, the person on the hospital bed could be seen from Su Liuying's position. It was nearly dusk, and the light in the room was detached and mottled, and the shadows shone on the withered man on the bed.
In just a few days, Lou Yue has lost more than half of his weight, his face is pale and haggard, and his brows are tightly twisted even if he is unconscious, and his expression is painful and uneasy.
And next to his bed, there was a woman, she kept wiping the sweat on her forehead for Lou Yue with one hand, but the other hand held Lou Yue's hand tightly, whispering something to him in her mouth, and when she turned her head, Su Liuying found that the woman was Lou Yue Xinna's concubine Red Sleeves.
Looking at everything in front of her, Su Liuying's face was calm, but the trembling hands under her sleeves still revealed the panic and heartache in her heart, and her eyes slowly turned red...... Su Liuying's expression could not escape Su Shiyu's gaze, and looking at Su Liuying's eyes, Su Shiyu also saw the scene in the house, sneered proudly in her heart, but said to Princess An with a gentle and respectful face
"Princess, now there is the red sleeves of the new favorite of the prince in the house, and the imperial doctor also said that the prince has shown signs of improvement under the care of Aunt Hong, and I believe that the fever will subside soon and wake up, so it is better to ...... Wait and see! Old Madam Lou immediately understood the meaning of Su Shi's words, and said
"The girl is right, I took good care of the red sleeves when I saw it, and I drank all the medicine Yue'er she fed just now. The doctor said that as long as you can take medicine, you can wake up with a fever. So—some inconsequential people, don't go in and bother at this time! "Su Shiyu is powerful in the end.
After Red Sleeves was sent back to Zhuangzi in the countryside by Queen Lou, the errand of serving Lou Yue was handed over to her.
Being able to get along with Lou Yue so closely, she is happy in her heart, and she wishes that her life would go on like this day by day.
But seeing that Lou Yue had a high fever and was unconscious, she was also anxious, and when she was serving him, she heard him call Su Liuying's name in her dream...... Su Shiyu hated and hurt in her heart, but she also understood that Lou Yue's heart disease could only be cured by Su Liuying.
However, asking her to send Su Liuying to Lou Yue's side made her more painful than killing her.
After thinking about it, she finally thought of the red sleeves in the countryside. After she told Mrs. Lou what she had in her heart, Mrs. Lou agreed with her idea, and took the red sleeves back to the palace from the Zhuangzi.
Before the red sleeves fell into the Qinglou, he was an actor, and he was found by the third prince and sent to Lou Yue's side, but he fell in love with Lou Yue at first sight, and in order to stay by his side, he deliberately imitated Su Liuying's words and deeds, plus she was already five points similar to Su Liuying.
Therefore, Su Shiyu asked her to pretend to be Su Liuying to accompany Lou Yue, talk to him, and wake Lou Yue up, but it was a breeze.
Coupled with the thing that Su Shiyu gave her, Lou Yue, who was half-awake, couldn't distinguish the facts, and subconsciously took the red sleeves as Su Liuying, thinking that she was back with her, the heart disease was removed, and after drinking the medicine, the high fever gradually subsided...... Listening to Su Shiyu's words, Princess An couldn't help but look into the house from the window, just as Red Sleeves turned her head, and the moment she saw her face, Princess An was shocked.
When she returned home from the nunnery before, the red sleeves had been sent to the village in the countryside by Queen Lou, so Princess An had never seen the appearance of the red sleeves.
Now when I saw it, I was shocked - not far away, under the background of the dim light in the room, the red sleeves sitting on the edge of the bed looked very much like Concubine Qiong back then!
Princess An was dumbfounded, and looked back at Su Liuying even more guiltily. Su Liuying didn't understand the embarrassment in Princess An's heart, and smiled bitterly
"Since the prince has improved, I will go back......" After speaking, she said goodbye to Princess An, but was kept by Princess An.
Princess An looked back at the room worriedly and said guiltily
"Hotaru, since you're here, why don't you stay here for a while...... Yue'er thinks that it is you after all, and no one else can replace it...... I think, when he wakes up, the first person he wants to see must be you......" Looking at Princess An's earnest gaze, Su Liuying couldn't bear to refuse, so she had to nod her head and say softly
"Then I'll stay in the courtyard and wait for the prince to wake up before leaving." Hearing her say this, Princess An finally put her mind at ease and said gratefully
"I'll thank you in advance for Yue'er." After speaking, Princess An was impatient to enter the house to inspect Lou Yue's situation to see if it was really getting better as Su Shiyu said.
Su Liuying stood quietly in the courtyard alone, through the half-open door, watching the imperial doctor and Princess An take care of the busy work beside him, and her heart was extremely bitter.
Before I knew it, the night was sinking and it was getting late. I don't know how long it took, but I finally heard someone in the house rejoicing
"Ah, it's finally time to retreat......" Su Liuying's heart was completely relieved, and she was about to poke her head to look at the scene in the house, when a figure flashed in front of her, Su Shiyu blocked her sight with a smile, but the words she said were cold and piercing.
"Still reluctant to go? Oh, you don't really think that you can't live without the prince, right? I'll tell you a good news, the prince has sobered up with a fever, but unfortunately our palace doesn't welcome a scourge like you, and the old lady won't let you into the house! In her ears, listening to the sound of joy coming from Lou Yue's bedroom, Su Liuying's high heart finally let go.
Her body was already stiff and numb, and the slightest movement was extremely uncomfortable. On her face, she ignored Su Shiyu's smugness and ridicule, and said coldly
"The prince can wake up safely, but Concubine Su is indispensable."
"However, since the prince has woken up, should you return the jade plate you took my jade plate?" After learning that the jade plaque that had been withdrawn four years ago had not been returned to Lou Yue's hands, Su Liuying had carefully gone through the people present when Lou Yue came to Su Mansion four years ago to ask for marriage in the past few days.
Her father is old-fashioned, and she doesn't believe that the most important jade plate for marriage will be accidentally lost, and it must have been taken by someone with a heart.
On the day Lou Yue came to ask for marriage, in her boudoir, in addition to her and the nurse, there were only Su Shiyu and Xingyu.
She remembered very well that the matchmaker invited by the Lou family was solemn at that time, and personally sent the jade card to Lanting Pavilion to show her, and told her that this was a token of love given to her by Lou Yue, and the jade card was only given to the princess.
The implication is that as long as she accepts the jade card, she will become the princess of Lou Shi, who is coveted by women all over the world.
At that time, she was ashamed and angry and threw the jade plaque and the brocade box aside. ran to the front hall to express his attitude to his parents, and vowed in public not to marry Lou Yue...... Seeing her hard attitude, her father had to ask the matchmaker to return the dowry in the first hall, conveying Su Liuying's determination to refuse to marry.
After Su Liuying returned to the boudoir, she found that there was still a jade card that had not been returned, so she asked the nurse to quickly send the jade card to the matchmaker who had left, and asked her to return it to Lou Yue.
But at that time, Su Shiyu rushed to ask Xingyu to help her run this leg, saying that Xingyu was young and ran fast and would not make a mistake, but now that she thinks about it, the jade card was quietly accepted by them...... At that time, Su Shiyu had already married into Loufu as a side concubine, but that day she suddenly came to their house with the courtship team sent by Lou Yue.
At that time, when Su Shiyu received Lou Yue's proposal, she still felt deeply sorry for her, so when she refused to marry, she was extremely angry and said a lot of heartless and ugly words to show her determination not to marry Lou Yue, so that Su Shiyu could feel at ease.
Later, these words somehow spread throughout the city, and everyone in the capital knew that Su Taishou's only daughter not only refused to marry Lou Yue, but also belittled him fiercely on the day of his courtship, making him worthless, and vowed never to marry Lou Yue.
For a while, King An's Mansion and Lou Yue became a joke in the mouths of people all over the world, and King An's Mansion and the second room of the Su family were also completely in the same place...... Looking at Su Shiyu, whose face had become pale and flustered, Su Liuying sneered
"Xingyu once said to me, saying that I ruined the relationship between you and Lou Yue, and I made you miss the position of the princess, saying that I am sorry for you. I always thought so before, and I once felt a deep sense of guilt for you, but it wasn't until today that I realized that what Xingyu said should be all the way around. ”
"Since four years ago, it was you who tried your best to break up me and Lou Yue, destroy the relationship between me and him, and even did countless despicable and ridiculous things, it should be you who are sorry for me!"
"The words I said when I divorced from the marriage were deliberately spread by you all over the city, so as to worsen the relationship between the Lou family and my family, so that it is impossible for me and Lou Yue to get together......"
"And the jade plate that Lou Yue gave me was also secretly hidden by you, so that Lou Yue thought that my father and I were greedy for small profits. Perhaps, it was you who coveted the position of the princess and deceived yourself into keeping the jade plate by your side to satisfy your ridiculous vanity......"
"Su Shiyu, I didn't know that you had a bad habit of being a thief, you stole the jade plate, and so did the package - do you think that the stolen things really belong to you?"
"So, please return the jade card to me!" Su Liuying ruthlessly uncovered the evil things Su Shiyu had done, and at the same time stretched out her hand in front of Su Shiyu, who had panicked to despair, and asked her for the jade plate without hesitation.
