Chapter 34 A Bird More Valuable Than a Man
When Noah woke up from her slumber, it was a completely unfamiliar place, not a bamboo garden.
Although the furnishings in the room are still simple and elegant, it is not difficult to see the luxury in the details. The wrong gold head incense burner, the tea table piano case agarwood strips, a dazzling array of Bogu shelves, the night pearls inlaid with pigeon eggs, exude a hazy and holy light.
She was a little stiff on her stomach, and she moved slightly, and the tearing pain in her back made her can't help but "hiss".
Where is this? Noya couldn't help but be a little puzzled, she remembered that she was sitting in the carriage with Chu Qingchen and wanted to go back to Zhuyuan.
Outside the window, someone was talking in a low voice, but it was gossiping, and a curling medicinal fragrance came through the window.
......
"I've never seen our master so depressed, and this time I'm really confused."
"That's it, he kept holding her hand and didn't close his eyes all night, it seems that the rumors are true."
"Is it worth it for such a woman? Water-based poplars, climbing dragons and phoenixes. ”
"I heard that she took this sword for our master, which naturally impressed the master. No matter how unbearable she is, she is rushing at this sword, and it is worth serving me. ”
"Who knows, Sister Abu, it's not clear what happened to the assassination yesterday? I heard that she was a prophet of the unknown, so I rushed over to remind my master, where is there such a coincidence? It's hard to guarantee that it wasn't designed by someone with a heart. ”
"Is it difficult, what else is hidden here? She couldn't have provoked our master, right? ”
"Don't talk nonsense! This kind of unsubstantiated and unsubstantiated thing, you can also talk nonsense, if it is heard by the master, don't want your little life! "It seems to be the voice called Ah Bu.
"Sister Abu, two days ago, you heard that our master took her to the bamboo garden and protected her like a treasure, isn't she still jealous and scolded so ugly, why did you say good things for her in a blink of an eye?"
"In the past, those ladies who frequently came to the door with ulterior motives, no matter how good they were, how many of them were willing to block the sword for our master? That alone is a rare thing for me. Besides, I changed her clothes for Shicai, you don't know, she has a lot of scars of different shades on her back, and she must have suffered a lot before. Maybe she didn't live well in the General's Mansion and was often beaten and scolded, otherwise, what woman would be willing to bear such an infamy and escape from the mansion? ”
"That's what I said, I heard that the side lady from the Qin Mansion is jealous, harsh to people, often beats and scolds people, and never sees others as good."
"That's not right, Sister Abu, why did I hear that the ninth master turned the capital upside down for her, not to mention, he had a dispute with our master yesterday, and he was injured and vomited blood when he started his hand on the street with Feng Chi!"
What the? Noah was startled, and Baili Jiu vomited blood? Hasn't he always been strong in martial arts? Hasn't he always been alive and well? How could he be defeated at the hands of Feng Chi and vomit blood?
She was about to get out of bed in a hurry, and she remembered something when she stepped on the ground barefoot, and sat down again in despair, her heart twisting like a knife.
Now that she is dying, if the Killer Pavilion knew that she not only killed Chu Qingchen, but on the contrary, ruined their big affairs, she was afraid that she would have to rush to the Lord of Yama to report on her life. What if it was protected by Chu Qingchen?
Sooner or later, he will also die, why drag him down? Let him watch his poisonous hair or die under the sword of the killer?
If he doesn't have himself, he can not be coerced, marry someone he likes, spend the moon before and after, and live a chic life.
Now that you're gone, let's be thorough and don't break the thread anymore.
The door was gently pushed open from the outside, and a girl with a pomegranate red silk flower on her head leaned in: "Madam, are you awake?" ”
Noah could hear that it was the voice of Ah Bu who spoke for herself, and she barely smiled as an answer.
"Where is this?" She asked, a little knowingly.
"This is the Second Prince's Mansion, ma'am." Ah Bu stepped forward to get up and tie it with a ruyi hook gold silk.
"Isn't it a bamboo garden?"
"The bamboo garden is just a separate courtyard for my master, the courtyard where Mrs. Hui used to live, and my master often went to live there." Ah Bu glanced at her back and saw that there was already blood leaking out: "The doctor prescribed a medicinal soup, saying that after you wake up, you must drink it, I will serve it to you, and then the doctor will help you re-bandage the wound on your back." ”
After saying that, he turned around and went out, but he came back in a few moments, with a steaming decoction in his hand and a small plate of candied fruit, which he placed on the table.
"What about your master?" Noah asked softly.
"I got up early this morning and a doctor from the palace came. The master was talking to him in the antechamber. Whatever you command, just ask. ”
Noah thanked him in a low voice: "I don't have anything to do, you can just take care of yourself." ”
Ah Bu responded happily: "I will serve you to drink the medicine, and then go to the kitchen to deliver food." The doctor said that this medicine needs to be drunk before meals. ”
Seeing that the soup in the bowl was not too hot, he handed it to Noya, who took it up and dried it in one breath, took the candied fruit in her hand and put it in her mouth, so that she dared to breathe.
When she saw that Ah Bu turned around to leave, she couldn't help it after all. Whispered, "No? ”
Ah Bu turned around: "What else does Madame command?" ”
She swallowed and said, "Then, the ninth master, I heard that I vomited blood, is it important for my body?" ”
Ah Bu was stunned, but she didn't expect that all the conversations of several people were listened to by her, and her face turned red: "It's okay, I heard that it was caused by drinking on an empty stomach for days, and I vomited blood in anger." ”
Noah thanked her in a low voice, and Ah Bu withdrew with a red face, and lowered her voice to talk to the girls outside.
There are a few little girls who are sweeping in the yard, with buckets of water in their hands, they should have been advised by Abu, and they should no longer be babbling.
Noya looked out of the window, this yard is very spacious, glazed and tiled, carved beams and paintings, and the direction of where he lives should be the main house. She turned around and looked at the furnishings in the house, could it be that she lived in Chu Qingchen's room?
A little girl muttered and complained in annoyance: "Why is there bird poop here?" Every time I clean it, it's not good to pull it anywhere, I have to be here, and it's really difficult to clean up the horns, and I have to wipe it with my hands. Annoyed me and caught it with a clamp here! ”
The girl next to her didn't raise her head: "This bird is more expensive than you, if you dare to kill it, the master may chop you up." ”
The little girl obviously didn't believe it, and laughed: "It's a scare person, when did our master raise birds?" Why haven't I seen it before? ”
"It's rare and weird, don't blame me for not reminding you, but don't be foolish, be careful that your life is gone."
The man said it seriously, and the little girl was completely frightened: "Good sister, you have to tell me what kind of bird it is, right?" Thrush or parrot, as for such gold? ”
"I don't know, it's gray, it's ugly, and our master likes it."
"Oh." The little girl nodded as if she didn't understand: "Resigned to the fate, continue to wipe the guano on it."
Noah didn't want to stay in the house any longer, so she stepped out of the yard, careful not to tear the wound on her back.
As soon as she went out, several little girls in the yard all stopped what they were doing, turned their heads to look at her, their faces were either disdainful or curious and picky.
"How do I get to the front hall?" Ah Bu was in the courtyard, and Noah asked a rough girl who was sprinkling and sweeping.
The girl was stunned for a moment, and then Orr realized that Noah was talking to herself, pointing to the location of the southeast corner, and said angrily: "After that moon arch, it is." ”
Noah whispered a thank you, and walked out slowly, without shaking her shoulders or legs.
She walked very slowly, and as soon as she turned the gate of the courtyard, the little girl behind her couldn't wait to talk, and scrambled into her ears through the courtyard wall.
"I don't look very good, she's not as good as Miss Xue Ning of the Zuo Xiang family."
"I think her eyebrows and eyes are very good-looking, but her face is almost injured and she is almost injured. That whole body is not comparable to ordinary people. ”
"Oh my God, she was so seriously injured, why did she go to the ground immediately, if it were me, anyway, with the second prince by her side, she would have to lie in bed for ten days and half a month!"
"Nymphomaniac!"
"As if you weren't, what woman in the world could refuse a man like our master? But I'm self-aware, and I'm just addicted to it. ”
"That's it, she is really blessed to be favored by the best two men in the world, not to mention being injured, so I am willing to lack arms and legs."
"With your virtue, if you lack arms and legs, you are no different from an old beggar on the street."
"You damn girl, see if I don't kill you."
The courtyard was full of laughter, and Noah couldn't help but smile bitterly, they were all envious of themselves, why wasn't he envious of them? At the very least, they can not face the fear of dying, they can love someone unscrupulously, and they, close to the person they like, are deprived of the right to love him.
She did as the rough maid said, and went out of the arch of the weeping flowers, through the promenade and water pavilion, and around a patch of pavilions, and the purple and red garden, which was the main hall of the front hall.
Her wound began to hurt hotly, and Noah thought that it must have been a force that tore a layer of tender scabs that had just healed when she went up the stairs, and she didn't know if it was bleeding?
She walked more and more slowly, her steps light and silent, like a tanuki.
It just so happened that Chu Qingchen came out of the house, followed by a doctor, who was the imperial doctor who went to Zhuyuan to see him the day before yesterday. Today, he is dressed in a short shirt, he looks energetic, his eyes are also bright, and he is obviously a practitioner.
Isn't he a royal doctor?
Noah unconsciously stopped, hiding behind a clump of cannas in full bloom.
