Lan Gu got up early in the morning and stewed some chicken soup for Xiao Tao to nourish her body. She felt sorry for that girl from the bottom of her heart. She didn't believe that such a man in a white robe was reluctant in a flash, and if the two were private, how could they let Xiao Tao have a fetus? It's just that even she, a subordinate, can understand the truth, but the smart and sophisticated old lady and the adult can't understand it. I don't know what they are blinding about? Is it just because Xiao Tao is a Tang dynasty and was once forced to be an official prostitute? Lan Gu couldn't figure it out. I can't control the affairs of the Lord's house. I can only do my best to settle Xiao Tao.

Lan Gu had just delivered the chicken soup to Xiao Tao's house, and before she could speak, she was called back to the old lady. The old lady was bitten by the smell of her food, and asked, "What did you do early in the morning?" ”

Lan Gu told truthfully: "I stewed something for the peach girl." ”

Old Madam Du frowned, swallowed what she wanted to say, only looked at Lan Gu and said lightly: "Tell me to go down and invite that Lang Zhong under the mountain again." "That Lang Zhong is a good one, as long as he gives silver, he will definitely be able to use it.

"Yes." Lan Gu was a little puzzled, why did she invite that Lang Zhong again? But he didn't dare to ask more, and settled down according to Mrs. Du's instructions.

After a while, Lang Zhong was invited to give Xiao Tao a pulse diagnosis and treatment. didn't say anything in front of Xiao Tao, but went into Mrs. Du's house to discuss. Mrs. Du even retreated from Lan Gu, and no one was left in the house to serve. Half an hour later. Lang Zhong left, and Mrs. Du took the prescription and handed it to Lan Gu to instruct her to take the medicine according to the prescription and condition Xiao Tao's body.

Lan Gu breathed a sigh of relief, the old lady finally cared about Miss Peach's life. She was worried that if she continued to ignore it, Miss Peach's body would be ruined. Busy with joy, he followed Mrs. Du's instructions to grab the medicine.

Xiao Tao fell asleep and woke up, woke up and fell asleep, and the events of the past few days were like the most difficult memories of her life, which were playing out in her mind over and over again. Sometimes she couldn't even tell if she was dreaming or waking up.

The door creaked open, and the cold wind that came in between the door made Xiao Tao feel cold and sober, this is not a dream. I can't even dream of such a bleak condition. Lan Gu walked in happily with a bowl of medicine: "Peach girl, drink it quickly." This is the old lady's prescription after showing you Lang Zhong mercy. As he spoke, he brought the medicine to Xiao Tao's side.

Xiao Tao subconsciously took it, looking at the black medicinal soup is sick to his stomach, and couldn't help but think of Zhao Kuangyin's bowl of medicine again, and his hands trembled.

Lan Gu held Xiao Tao's hand: "Girl, drink it, how can your body be good if you don't drink it?" ”

Is it good to drink it? Who says medicine is a lifesaver? Xiao Tao used to simply think. Medicine is life-saving, but now I know that medicine can also be fatal! Xiao Taoran asked, "Is it the medicine that Old Madam Du ordered you to catch?" ”

Lan Gu nodded: "The old lady is kind." I personally followed to catch it, for fear that the subordinates would not be able to make mistakes. ”

Xiao Tao smiled sadly: "Your heart for me, I know, thank you." Instead, he said, "The medicine is a little hot, let it sit for a while, and I'll call you when I'm done drinking." ”

Lan Gu nodded: "It's okay." I'm going to bring a bowl of soup to the old lady. I'll come to you later. He turned and walked out.

Xiao Tao picked up the bowl of medicine and smiled bitterly, is this medicine? Or is it poison? She doesn't dare to trust anyone anymore, everyone in Da Zhou makes her feel like she's on thin ice in the abyss. She has paid for her stupidity with the child's life, and she doesn't want to pay for her life again. Thinking that Mrs. Du stared at her gloomily and asked her not to say anything about Zhao Kuangyin's visit, Xiao Tao was a chill. I'm afraid of this medicine, and if you don't drink it, you will live longer.

Xiao Tao struggled to get up, took the bowl of medicine, moved to the table, poured the medicine into the flower pot, moistened it with the remaining few drops on her lips, put the bowl on the table, and staggered back to the bed.

After a while, Lan Gu walked in, looked at the empty bowl and asked, "The girl drank the medicine?" ”

Xiao Tao wiped her mouth, reluctantly hooked her lips and said, "Drink." ”

Lan Gu looked at the medicine stain on Xiao Tao's lips, and was also relieved, and said a few more words to Xiao Tao, and walked out with the bowl. The door of the house was closed, Xiao Tao collapsed on the bed weakly, tears slid down, this world, is it only possible to live by disguising it with lies and wrapping it with false feelings?

Old Madam Du saw Lan Gu come back, and squeezed the Buddha beads in her hand hard, and her voice was a little nervous: "She drank it?" ”

"Drunk." Lan Gu replied.

Mrs. Du closed her eyes, so be it, according to what Lang Zhong said, this medicine will kill all of a sudden, but taking it every day, losing qi and blood, is no different from dying naturally after heavy bleeding. Originally, she lost her child because of fornication, and now she deserves it. Mrs. Du tried her best to calm her nervous thoughts.

Zhao Kuangyin sent someone to inquire about the situation of Xiao Tao in Lang, originally because Mrs. Du was a little worried about the bad things in the old Lang Zhong of An Hetang, but later I heard that Mrs. Du found the previous Lang Zhong to prescribe medicine, and couldn't help but sigh that the old lady was worthy of experience, so she also rushed to Houshu with confidence.

More than ten days have passed, Xiao Tao has been bedridden all day, her face is pale, and Mrs. Du can't see how Xiao Tao's body is, but there is no sign of exhaustion and death. Mrs. Du was a little unsure, so she hurriedly found Lang Zhong again.

After Lang Zhong checked Xiao Tao's pulse, he frowned and didn't speak, and when he arrived at Mrs. Du's house, he whispered: "Now, not only is the girl's body not damaged, but there is no major problem. ”

"How so?" Mrs. Du was surprised, "She drinks the medicine you prescribed every day." ”

"Impossible." Lang Zhong shook his head, "Anyone who drinks it will lose their qi and blood, and they will die of exhaustion." It won't be as smooth as hers. After a pause, he asked, "Did you see her drink with your own eyes?" ”

Mrs. Du was speechless, who still stared at her all day long and drank medicine? It's just that she is sick and will drink any medicine regardless of it, who knows that she still hides such a shrewd heart. Mrs. Du clenched her palms, she really underestimated the scheming of that official prostitute. Also, if she didn't have the scheming, how could she make Kuang Yi obedient? Mrs. Du was even more disgusted with Xiao Tao in her heart.

Lang Zhong thought for a while and said, "If you want to be fast, I will prescribe the prescription again, and if I drink it, I will die violently, but it will show traces." ”

Old Madam Du was a little confused in her heart: "You open the recipe first, as for how to use it, I'll think about it again." ”

Lang Zhong lowered his head and wrote the recipe and handed it to Mrs. Du: "This recipe is worth more than the previous one." ”

Old Madam Du frowned, took out two more ingots of silver and handed them to Lang Zhong, and waved her hand: "You go back first." ”

Lang Zhong went out with the silver satisfied, and Mrs. Du pinched the fateful prescription, and was extremely worried, should she go to catch the medicine, or not? Just as she was hesitating, Lan Gu came in to tell the matter, and Mrs. Du couldn't help asking, "You serve the Ye family to drink medicine every day, but you saw her drink it with your own eyes?" ”

Lan Gu was stunned, she didn't see it with her own eyes, every time Xiao Tao said that she was going to drink it cold, even if she served it warm, she had to wait for a while. Now seeing Mrs. Du ask like this, she unconsciously asked, "She didn't drink?" "Honghe Zaba.

Old Madam Du snorted coldly: "Lang Zhong said that looking at her pulse, she didn't drink it at all." ”

Lan Gu was stunned, and said a little angrily: "I'll ask her." After speaking, he turned around and ran out in small steps, and when he arrived at the door of Xiao Tao's room, he didn't bother to knock on the door, so he pushed the door and went in, "Miss Peach, let me ask you, have you drunk all the medicine I give you every day?" ”

Xiao Tao was stunned by Lan Gu's question, and didn't answer, just lowered her eyes. Lan Gu let out a long sigh: "No wonder they all say that the Tang people are cunning, I still don't believe it." You can't even trust me. With that, he turned around and walked out.

Xiao Tao's hand clutched the quilt tightly, is she cunning? If she is cunning, how can she have no children of her own? How can it be calculated step by step? Just because she is a Tang person, even self-preservation has become cunning? Is it branded as a Tang dynasty and wrong to do anything in this big week? In addition to giving his own life?!

Mrs. Du hesitated for two days, Xiao Tao's life was not easy in the past two days, and now even Lan Gu didn't bother to take care of her, only a few rough subordinates brought her some simple meals every day, Xiao Tao's body was not good, and she was even weaker.

On the third day, Mrs. Du was pinching the recipe and preparing to make up her mind, but there was a notice from outside the door that someone was running in: "Old lady, Lord Zhao is back." ”

"Which Lord Zhao?" Old Madam Du was shocked and clenched the prescription in her hand.

"Lord Kuangyi." The servant said. Old Madam Du hurriedly threw the recipe in her hand into the charcoal brazier. After straightening his clothes, as soon as he walked out of the door, Zhao Kuangyi, who was dressed in military uniform, had already strode in, and when he saw Mrs. Du, he bowed: "My son is back." ”

Mrs. Du hurriedly helped Zhao Kuangyi up, patted him on the shoulder and entered the house together: "Didn't you say that it would take two months?" Why is it more than ten days in advance? ”

Zhao Kuangyi replied: "The repair is very fast, so it is ahead of schedule." At the end of the tomb, Zhao Kuangyi returned to Kaifeng with the little emperor, his mood was very conflicted, saying that he didn't want to go back, but he wanted to see Xiao Tao urgently, and he had a child's little peach; But when he thought about it, he was a little afraid of seeing Xiao Tao. was so entangled and contradictory, but he still came to Ningyuan Temple.

Mrs. Du asked Zhao Kuangyi a few words about the itinerary, and saw that Zhao Kuangyi seemed to be a little absent-minded, and her heart was horizontal, so she simply preemptively attacked: "Kuangyi, Kuangyin sent you a letter, Ye is pregnant." ”

Zhao Kuangyi nodded, frowning. looked at the corners of Mrs. Du's mouth: "I know." ”

Mrs. Du said: "There is another news, I have not dared to tell you. I wanted to send you a letter in a few days, but I didn't expect you to come back early. After a pause, his voice was a little low, "Child, it's gone." ”
