Chapter 103: Imprisoned
The relics were treated by Imperial Physician Wang. After two hours, the fever disappeared, and the maids served and poured the medicinal juice, and the residual incense on the body was also removed, and in the early morning, the person woke up in a daze.
When he opened his eyes, he saw a light gauze tent, surrounded by a faint bitter smell of herbs, staring at the top of the bed for a while, Yi Yu slowly turned his head sideways, his cheek touched the slightly cool porcelain pillow on one side, and looked at the two maids who were yawning and yawning standing against the wall opposite.
"Water." Her mouth was full of the bitter taste of the decoction, and she remembered that she had been poured the medicine several times last night.
Hearing her shout, the two maids hurriedly came to the bedside, and their faces were a little blurry through the gauze tent, but as soon as they got closer, Yi Yu still recognized that these two were the two sisters Pingtong and Pinghui, who had taken care of her in the apricot garden.
The memory of last night was very confusing, as if she had been a little delirious since she began to have a fever, and then she heard movement outside the hut, and it was vaguely as if someone had carried her out of the small dark room.
"Water."
"Miss Lu, Imperial Physician Wang has instructed that if you wake up, you need to drink the medicine first."
Yu Yu nodded. As long as she can drink it, she is really thirsty. Seeing her agree, Ping Tong hurriedly trotted out, while Ping Hui rolled up the gauze tent, helped her sit up slowly, removed the porcelain pillow, and replaced it with two soft cushions leaning against her back.
After a while, Ping Tong returned to the house with a bowl of steaming medicinal juice, squatted on the side of the bed, scooped out a mouthful with a spoon, and carefully blew it to Yu Yu's lips.
Yi Yu's body was still sour and weak at this time, and she opened her mouth to let her feed herself and drink, but as soon as the medicine was in her mouth, she immediately frowned slightly, it was really bitter, even more bitter than the aftertaste in her mouth just now.
Seeing that Pingtong had another spoonful to put into her mouth, Yi Yu shook his head gently, "You blow cooler." ”
Pingtong obediently responded, carefully mixing the medicine in the bowl with a spoon, while quietly looking up at her expression. Yi Yu was already awake at this time, saw her little eyes, smiled slightly, and asked in a somewhat hoarse voice, "See what I do?" ”
Ping Tong was suddenly asked by her, his hand shook, and he almost spilled the medicinal juice, and saw that there was only a smile on Yiyu's face, and there was no look of blame, so he was a little bolder. "Miss Lu, do you remember the slaves?"
Yi Yu nodded, glanced at her, and said, "You are Pingtong," and then glanced at another little girl who was also looking at her with some eyes, "You are Pinghui." ”
When the two of them saw that she remembered her name, they immediately showed joy, and their voices were a little excited, "Miss Lu still remembers us." ”
Naturally, I remember them, if I said that Yi Yu was still a little stunned when she first woke up, she saw that her sisters had already understood that she was now on the territory of King Wei, and she must have been saved by Li Tai's people last night. Thinking that she couldn't be found last night, Lu Zhicai went to find King Wei, and at that time she vaguely heard a whistling sound, so Yang Xiaozhao called for help, but she didn't expect it to really work.
The medicinal juice had gradually warmed up, and Yiyu motioned for Pingtong to bring the bowl to her mouth, stretched out her soft hand to support it, swallowed the bowl of medicine in one go, and rinsed her mouth with water a few times. The bitterness in the mouth is a little lighter.
She looked sideways at the furnishings in the room, furniture, porcelain, calligraphy and paintings were all ordinary objects, "Where is this?" ”
"Miss Huilu, this is King Wei's Mansion."
Yi Yu's eyes were falling on an embroidered screen diagonally opposite, and when he heard Ping Tong's answer, he was stunned for a moment, and then suppressed the slightly shocked look on his face, "Do you know where my eldest brother is at this moment?" ”
"Gongzi Lu stayed in Jiyun Courtyard last night, and the young lady can use the slave maid to pass it on?"
Yi Yu nodded, Ping Tong walked out of the door quickly, and Ping Hui went around the screen to get a coat to put on her, and then put down the gauze tent.
After a while, he heard a sound of footsteps outside the door, and Yi Yu turned his head to look, and saw Pingtong open the curtain and Lu Zhi walked in from the outer hall.
Pinghui moved a chair and put it on the side of the bed, and after he sat down, he asked them to go down, and the two maids had no objection, bowed down, and did not forget to cover the door curtain.
Yi Yu stretched out her hand to open the veil a little, and when she saw Lu Zhi's slightly haggard face, an apology rose in her heart, as if she always had to get into some trouble, and then let Lu Zhi finish it up for her, but if she was polite, they wouldn't say much between their brothers and sisters.
Lu Zhi carefully looked at her little face, and saw that although her lips were a little chapped, she was still in good spirits, so her worries disappeared. With a slight anger, his voice sounded very stern, "Do you know how dangerous it was yesterday?" ”
Yi Yu naturally knew that it was extremely unwise for her to rashly follow someone else yesterday, but she really didn't expect that someone would dare to use such indiscriminate methods in the academy.
"Brother, I know it's wrong, I was careless yesterday, so I gave others a chance to take advantage of it." Admitting mistakes is necessary, Lu Zhi rarely shows an angry look, and her attitude of admitting mistakes must be good.
Lu Zhi saw that she took the initiative to admit her mistake, and after being stunned for a while, he sighed lightly, lowered his head and pondered for a while, and when he looked at her again, he lost the anger just now, "I was also wrong, I just thought that Chengyang had no plans to attack you, so I thought I wouldn't go on a business trip, but I didn't expect ......."
Then Lu Zhi told her how Chu Xiaosi found Princess Chengyang's person and discussed how to lock her up for two days as a lesson, and also told her about many twists and turns in this school.
Yi Yu was just silent after hearing this, the pair of bright eyes in the past were a little gloomy at the moment, she guessed that yesterday's events had nothing to do with Chu Xiaosi, but she didn't expect that the people in Chengyang would also attack her. At noon that day, she pretended to have a low posture to calm Chengyang's anger towards her, but she didn't want to be used to vent her anger at will.
It is said that those people didn't take her life in their eyes at all, so they gave her a ** casually, and threw her in a closed hut, and really locked her up there for two days, according to her fever yesterday, I am afraid that she will go to half her life, just because she refused Princess Chengyang's alms that need to be exchanged for her life, just because she had no intention of refuting Chu Xiaosi's face, those people wanted to "teach" her like this.
How could she not be angry when she was treated like this. How can you not be angry? However, in addition to being angry, she has more of a sense of powerlessness, no matter how angry she is, Princess Chengyang needless to say, she is naturally a person she can't afford to provoke, not to mention that she is alive and well now, even if she is really killed by the princess, people don't have to pay any price.
And that Chu Xiaosi, although her father is only the title of Dr. Wupin, but the person behind her is Changsun Xian, the daughter of the eldest grandson!
These fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls in the Guozi Prison are far more precocious than she imagined, their thoughts are deeper, and they are more ruthless! In this era of extreme leniency towards women, in the family of princes and generals, they are not young girls who are waiting for spring and do not know the affairs of the world.
Chengyang is definitely not the only princess who achieves the goal of mastering the officials in the future by encircling future female officials, these princesses and young ladies are not only pawns on the road of men's ambitions, but also borrowing the power of men to continuously expand the chips in their hands.
Think about the Tang Dynasty in history, under such a relaxed social atmosphere, how many ambitious women have been, seeking power and usurping the throne, bringing disaster to the country and the people, and flattering the monarch and confusing the lord...... Yi Yu didn't dare to think about it anymore, she only felt that she had never seen the darkness and danger hidden behind this prosperous and magnificent Chang'an City as clearly as she did now.
"Xiaoyu?" Lu Zhi saw her stunned look, and thought that the sensational things he had just said scared her.
Yi Yu pulled out a weak smile at him, "Big brother, you say, is it too late to regret it now, we have also saved a lot of money, take my mother and second brother together, find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, and continue to farm and live." ”
Lu Zhi's body stiffened, and several emotions flashed in his eyes, and finally turned into a light sigh, and said in a low voice: "Xiaoyu, it's too late, our brothers and sisters have already fallen in." Big brother knows too much, and you, you—" His voice paused here, bowed his head and said no more.
After listening to the first half of his sentence, Yi Yu's expression was already a little flustered, and he didn't notice what he had not finished saying later, and after a while, he closed his eyes and relaxed himself and leaned against the head of the bed.
The two brothers and sisters had their own thoughts, the air in the room was stagnant for a while, and the faint smell of bitter medicine was like their mood, lingering around the two, I don't know how long it took, the sky outside the window was getting brighter, and the pleasant birdsong was faintly heard.
"Big brother."
"Xiaoyu."
At the same time, the two brothers and sisters looked at each other, and they both chuckled out in an instant, and the dull atmosphere that surrounded the two seemed to be dispersed by this laughter, and when the laughter stopped, their faces were not as negative as just now.
"You speak first." Lu Zhi nodded to Yi Yu, although this is someone else's territory, but both of them are smart people, and they will not say something that will make people hold the handle.
"Big brother, you say, where is the most luxurious place in Chang'an City?"
"Naturally, it's the Imperial Palace." Lu Zhi raised his eyebrows.
"Who is the most powerful person in this palace?"
"Your Majesty the Emperor." After Lu Zhi finished answering, the light in his eyes won one point.
Yi Yu smiled and asked again, "Does it hurt if I punch you, or does it hurt if the second brother punches you?" ”
"Lu Jun."
"But what if I got a knife?"
"I'll hide."
"What if you can't hide?"
"......" Lu Zhi frowned slightly, and before she could come up with an answer, Yu Yu smiled again:
"With my mother here, this situation will naturally not happen."
"Mother..."Lu Zhi pondered for a while, and there was one more point left in his eyes.
Yi Yu stretched out his hand and rubbed his left shoulder, and asked again: "I hid in the crowd with the money bag, won't the thief touch the money bag?" ”
Lu Zhi shook his head.
"If I show the money bag to the people, will the thief steal me at this time?"
Lu Zhi shook his head again.
"If that thief is changed to a robbery, should I let him get it?"
Lu Zhi hesitated for a moment, but the determined color in his eyes had risen to the extreme, and then he looked at Yi Yu with some surprise, and only said after a while: "You, you actually think like this?" ”
Yi Yu nodded, and adjusted his sitting posture slightly, so that he could see his eyes clearly, "Big brother, I have already figured it out, if you want to do something, do it, remember what you said to me at the princess banquet?" ”
"I can't forget it."
"Okay." Yi Yu leaned forward and stretched out a hand, "The gentleman is hard to chase after a horse, and the little sister believes you." ”
Lu Zhi shook his head and smiled, stretched out a big palm, and struck his two hands together, making three crisp sounds in a row, as if he had witnessed the future at this moment.
"By the way, what did the eldest brother want to say just now?"
"I've forgotten."
"Huh?"
......

Wei Wangfu Combing Pavilion
After listening to the spies' report, Li Tai held the tea cup lightly in one hand, his eyes stayed in the cup, and some tea leaves had been precipitated at the bottom, but there were still a few tea petals suspended leisurely, neither rising to the surface nor sinking to the bottom of the cup.
"Let the people around Lu Zhi withdraw and go find Ah Sheng."
"Subordinates obey."
After the spy bowed and retreated, Li Taicai brought the teacup in his hand to his lips, took a sip, and his eyes flashed slightly.
***
Lu Zhitian left the Wei Wangfu as soon as it was dawn, and went to Guozijian to attend classes as usual, and by the way, he also helped Yu Yu take leave.
After he left, Yu Yu ordered the two maids to go to the outer room to guard, and was about to make up for a while, but before he could lie down, he heard two screams from outside.
"What's wrong!" Yu Yu shouted, but there was no movement.
She hurriedly sat up from the bed, lifted the gauze tent and was about to put on her shoes and get out of bed, but when she looked up, she saw that the curtain of the door of the house was lifted from the outside, and a white mass fell in.
Yi Yu blinked, watched the thing hum and get up, and approached him step by step, still maintaining the movement of putting on shoes for a while, until the other party moved a step in front of him.
"Yo!" Yinxiao stood up in front of the jade bed, raised his neck and screamed.
Yi Yu slowly withdrew her hand to lift her shoes, and quickly retracted her feet back to the bed, but Yinxiao moved faster than her, her body fell forward, and a bird's head just rested on the side of the bed.
"Yo!" It screamed again, and Yu Yu carefully shrank into the bed, looking down at it quietly, in fact, she was not afraid, but reflexively avoided it.
"Yo." Yinxiao saw her movements, and let out a short cry for the third time, but this time Yi Yu seemed to hear a trace of the implicit in that voice - grievance?
She shook her head, shook off the inexplicable thoughts in her heart, and looked at Yinxiao who was lying motionless on the side of her bed with some embarrassment.
But last night it was saved thanks to itself, and the whistling sound it heard when it was delirious was like a life-saving gospel. Thinking of this, Yi Yu's eyes softened a little, and he didn't feel terrible when he looked at Yinxiao's blood-red eyes and red gold's big beak.
One bird and one person looked at each other like this for a long time, and instead leaned on the bed to sit on the bed, Yi Yu gradually felt sleepy, and unconsciously closed his eyes, and it didn't take long for his breathing to calm down.
Seeing that she was asleep, Yinxiao lay on the side of the bed for a while, until there was a faint movement outside, then she straightened up, twisted her body and shook towards the door.
