Chapter 310: Suffering from Love (5)
Moonfall flowers! Wei Nong has seen records in those peerless medical books, legend has it that this flower grows in the extremely cold land in the north, blooms once in 20 years, only one at a time, and is extremely precious! The medical book had recorded the method of using the moon falling flowers into medicine, but she had no flowers in her hand at the time, so she didn't look carefully at all!
But the most difficult thing is not this, the moon flower only blooms once in 20 years, which is rare in the world, and one flower can only be preserved for ten years! As Lian Kuo said, the only surviving flower in this world, he had already given it to Queen Jiang, and it was sent to Ning Kingdom along with the relics at that time!
In other words, the flowers are in the hands of Yunchen!
Will Yunchen use this flower to save Nie Xingji? No! No way! If someone else had this flower, she would definitely get it at all costs, but it was Yunchen...... How could she still have the face to beg for it, and then use this flower to save Nie Xingji?
The slightly thick heart was cold in an instant, and it only bloomed once in twenty years, how could Nie Xingji hold on? She couldn't help but turn her eyes to look over, and saw that he was also thin lips and pursed tightly, and his eyebrows were solemn.
At this time, Lian Kuo saw Nie Xingji's solemn expression, but wiped a handful of tears and reprimanded him: "Nie Xingji, if you are a man, don't disturb the queen's rest in peace!" You already owe too much to the State of Chu! If you want to vent your anger, you will whip my corpse! You will whip my corpse! ”
Hearing this, Wei Nong suddenly reacted to the meaning of Lian Kuo's words, and immediately reached out to choke his jaw, but it was too late, he didn't know when he hid a poison in his mouth, and at the moment when Wei Nong stretched out his hand, he had swallowed it.
Slightly startled, he hurriedly pulled his shoulders and asked, "Don't die!" Tell me! How long will this poison last? How long! ”
Lian Kuo only felt a fishy sweet breath in his throat, and his abdomen began to become painful, he twitched a few times before slowly laughing: "Half a year later...... Poison ...... If you see blood, you will die......"
It's only been half a year! But the moon only blooms once in 20 years! Wei Nong's heart twitched heavily, and he tried to pat Lian Kuo's face, trying to ask some more useful information: "What kind of poison do you use?" What ......"
Before he finished his question, Lian Kuo's mouth and nose began to bleed, and even his eyes were dripping with blood. But he smiled stupidly, and the blurred red in his vision reminded him of the first time he met Queen Jiang.
At the age of thirteen, he followed his master to the Moon Worship Hall to participate in the ceremony of sealing the queen, and witnessed the twenty-six-year-old Chu Yao wearing a phoenix crown and a xia veil, stepping into the back seat. She didn't look like them, she didn't have a strange white complexion, a tall nose, and she didn't have light brown eyes. However, her black pearl-like eyes were bright and moving, her long hair like black silk satin was thick like a waterfall, her red lips were lightly opened, and her smile became the most beautiful scenery in the Moon Worship Palace.
Since then, that red wedding dress has filled his entire heart and has become one of the brightest dreams in his life. This dream has been going on for twenty-two years, and he has never been willing to wake up.
Fortunately, he finally took the same Gu poison as her, and chose the same way to die as her, and from now on, he can continue to follow her again! Thinking of this, Lian Kuo slowly closed his eyes and died with great satisfaction......
As he bled to death through seven holes, Wei Nong no longer had any strength and suddenly collapsed on the ground. On the contrary, Nie Xingji walked over slowly and stretched out his hand to help her: "Don't think about it, there will always be a way." I haven't given up yet. ”
Wei Nong sat on the ground and wept uncontrollably: "Didn't you hear him say? The moonfall flower is in Yunchen's hands......"
Nie Xingji squatted down to wipe her tears: "Is this flower very precious?" ”
"It blooms once in twenty years, only one blooms at a time, and one flower can only be preserved for ten years......" Wei Nong suddenly felt that she was weak, she leaned on the crook of Nie Xingji's arm, and hugged him tightly: "What should I do?" You can't wait, we can't wait. ”
"So in Yunchen's hand, it is the only one in this world?" Nie Xingji's voice gradually deepened.
He sobbed slightly, unable to say a word.
Nie Xingji chuckled: "This is not simple, Yunchen is now in the Ning Army camp, will he take the flowers with him?" I'll find someone to go to Yunfu and steal it out. ”
Having said that, Wei Nong knew that Nie Xingji was comforting her. It seems that Lian Kuo is so bent on avenging Queen Jiang, he must have already informed Yunchen! How could he let people easily find the whereabouts of the moonfall flower?
"Why is it Yunchen...... It's just that he ......" The slightly thick tears had soaked Nie Xingji's shoulders, but she couldn't restrain it, she couldn't restrain it at all. She couldn't tell who she was crying for, she just knew that she was sad, desperate, and helpless.
Nie Xingji gently patted her back and sighed, "Maybe...... This is retribution. ”
Yes, it's retribution, it's really retribution! If Yunchen refused to give that flower, if Nie Xingji really died because of this, she didn't even have a grudge! No one can blame her! I can only blame myself, blame the sky, and blame the fate of this man!
Xu is slightly thick cried too much, and Ming Chenyuan outside the cell couldn't help it after all, and hurriedly ran in to investigate the situation. He only saw Lian Kuo lying on the ground bleeding from seven holes, saw Wei Nong crying loudly in Nie Xingji's arms, and saw Nie Xingji hugging her silently......
A sense of foreboding came to his heart, and Ming Chen hurriedly asked in a low voice, "Your Highness?" ”
A call made Nie Xingji come back to his senses, he glanced at Ming Chenyuan first, and then said to Wei Nong: "Don't cry, let's get out of here first and then find a way, huh?" ”
Wei Nong nodded reluctantly, picked up the Emei thorn on the ground, and followed him out of the cell.
"Bury it in place!" Before leaving, Nie Xingji said like this.
Several people walked out of the cell together and returned to the main tent, and the slight thick was blown by the night wind, and gradually calmed down. Recalling Lian Kuo's words before she died, she immediately decided: "You don't want to go to the battlefield again in the past few months, one is that you are gradually tired and prone to danger; The second Lian Kuo also said that after half a year, you will die when you see blood, which shows that you can't be injured again. ”
Nie Xingji raised his hand to look at the scratches on his fingers that were scratched by blades of grass, and sighed: "The news of my personal expedition has spread all over the world, if I don't show up for half a year, what will the soldiers think of me?" ”
"Life is important, don't be reckless." Weinong has a tough attitude.
Nie Xingji thought for a moment and tried to fight: "There was a battle with the Ning army a few days ago, and we won a small victory by relying on the terrain, I think we should take advantage of the victory to pursue." ”
"Then you're in command." Wei Nong did not back down.
Mingchen was on the way back, and he roughly heard about the cause and effect, and he was also very worried at the moment: "Your Highness, the county lord has a point, you don't have to go to the battlefield." It's a big deal that before we go out, it's more important for you to show up and cheer up, than for you to go out in person. ”
After tonight's toss, Nie Xingji was also extremely tired, and couldn't help but rub his forehead and compromised: "Okay, I'll listen to you for the time being." ”
Wei Nong breathed a sigh of relief at this point: "The top priority is to find out the traces of Lian Yong and where the moon falls and flowers." She paused, and then said, "Before I left, I entrusted those medical books to Master, and now it seems that the contents of those books are still useful." I'll repair the book to the master, and ask him to send a reliable person to deliver the medical book as soon as possible. ”
"You can write the letter and give it to Zhong Ze, and he will arrange it." Nie Xingji pointed to the distance.
"Okay, I'll write it!" Wei Nong couldn't wait for a moment, and immediately got up and returned to the camp tent to prepare paper and pen.
"Wei Nong," Nie Xingji stopped her when she was about to leave the tent, "There is still half a year, don't worry, we all want to think about it tonight, and we will talk about it tomorrow if we have anything to say." ”
Weinong could still sleep, but he couldn't bear to disturb his panic anymore, so he pretended to nod calmly: "Okay, you have a good rest." ”
As soon as she walked on her front foot, Ming Chenyuan couldn't help it, and asked with concern, "What are you going to do?" So what kind of flowers...... Is it really in the hands of Yunchen? ”
"Probably so." Nie Xingchen sighed.
Ming Chenyuan hesitated for a moment: "Yunchen must have taken precautions, it is not possible to estimate and rob, only outwitting." ”
Unexpectedly, Nie Xingji waved his hand: "There is still half a year, I have to think about this matter again, and I must not act rashly." ”
Ming Chenyuan was anxious when he heard this: "Half a year is not short, but it is not long!" ”
"I know," Nie Xingji's expression was cold, and his tone became more and more difficult, "This flower is easy to say in anyone's hands, but in the hands of the Chu royal family...... Whether it's a hard grab or a smart take, what do you make Wei Nong think of me? ”
"Life is at stake, the county lord will be considerate."
"What would you do if you were me and your life was in the hands of your rival?" Nie Xingji asked him rhetorically.
Ming Chenyuan suddenly had nothing to say. Yes, as a man, how can he show weakness to his rival in love? Men, although winning or losing is important, it is not as good as life and death; And what is higher than life and death is the dignity and pride of men.
But Mingchen still didn't give up: "What about the county lord?" What did she say? Didn't she think about going over to find Yunchen? ”
"You didn't see a slight reaction at the time," Nie Xingjianjun's eyes drooped slightly, hiding his complicated expression, "When she heard that the moon falling flowers were in Yunchen's hands, she immediately cried, crying repeatedly, and she was at a loss......"
"After all, the dispute between Yan and Chu is my fault first, and now even if she leans towards me, she can't open this mouth." Nie Xingji paused for a moment: "Or, she doesn't have the face to speak at all." ”
"Are you going to sit back and wait?" Ming Chenyuan didn't believe it at all.
Nie Xingchen didn't say much: "Let me think about this matter again, even if I want to rob it, I have to rob it openly, otherwise even if I rob it, it will make Wei Nong look down on it." ”
"You really ...... the county lord" Ming Chenyuan said this, and seemed a little speechless, except for shaking his head, he smiled bitterly.
Nie Xingchen smiled lightly instead: "It's not easy to 'regain the lost ground', how can you 'fall short'?" I don't want to wait another decade. ”
At this point, he seemed to be a little tired, and waved his hand towards Mingchenyuan: "Today is the end of the day, early tomorrow morning, you call all the brothers, I want to take Youzhou as soon as possible." ”
