Chapter 261: A Dream After Prosperity (7)
The summer rain in Yanlan City will always last for a while, with cloudy, lightning and thunder, killing gallops, and thrilling. The first rain of the summer of the year lasted all night.
The next day, the sky did not clear, but it was still gloomy and depressing, and there were signs of heavy rain again. Out of Xiu stayed awake all night, and even cried bitterly, the whole person seemed to be unhappy and unhappy, and he didn't want to see guests when he ordered him to go down.
But on the contrary, the housekeeper of the other courtyard hurried to Yunfu early in the morning, insisting on going to Zhiyanxuan to see Xiu. No matter how Yun Feng refused, the other party stayed outside the door of Yunfu, and did not confide in others.
Yun Feng couldn't, so he had to tell Chu Xiu about it. Izumi was reluctantly summoned.
After the housekeeper of the other courtyard came to bring Zhiyanxuan, he looked up and down, and saw that his face was full of anxiety, and the hem of his robe was full of mud and water stains, which was very embarrassing. Before she could ask, the other party had already "pounced" and knelt down to plead guilty: "The villain is derelict in his duties, and I implore Mrs. to confess." Lady she ...... Missing. ”
"Missing?" Izuku was surprised. Since Yun Xiangrong's trick was exposed, Izuku drove her to live in another courtyard, and moved out of Yunfu overnight with her daughter Min'er and second aunt Taihua Wuying.
"The three good guys are all missing?" Izuku asked suspiciously.
The housekeeper of the other courtyard shook his head: "No, only the eldest lady is missing......
Why did you "disappear" at this juncture? Is it a real disappearance or a fake disappearance? Izuxiu's heart was full of questions, and she always felt that Yi Yun Xiangrong's means should not be easily kidnapped, not to mention that she was so smart, since she had been abducted and raped, she would definitely act cautiously if she was wise enough to eat a trench.
But if she left on her own, how could she ruthlessly give up her second aunt and her daughter? And, where will she go?
This matter is not big, but it is not small, especially now that Yun Xiangrong is still Mrs. Weiyuan Hou, just because of this level of identity, Xiu has to take care of her. After thinking about it, she still called Yueyun and instructed: "You go to Rongjin Hall in person to tell Mrs. Tai, and say that the eldest lady is missing." ”
Yue Wan pursed her lips: "If you are missing, you will be missing, what are you looking for her." Although she was the old master of the slave and maid, she acted too viciously, and the slave and the maid wished that she had suffered retribution. ”
Hearing this, Izuku only smiled indifferently: "Having said that, she is the eldest lady of Yunfu after all, if she gets lost and has an accident, the world will only criticize the Yun family for being incompetent." ”
Yue Wan was stunned, and hurriedly ran to Rong Jintang to return. After half a pillar of incense, she returned to Zhiyanxuan and said to Izuxiu: "Mrs. Tai said, forgive her and can't use any tricks, just let her go, it's best to die outside." ”
Is it better to die outside? Mrs. Tai doesn't care about the reputation of Yunfu? Izumi was helpless: "Since Mrs. Tai said so, she must know it in her old man's heart." ”
So Izuku had to summon the housekeeper of the other courtyard and instructed: "Go back and do your errand as usual, this matter is hidden, just as if it never happened." ”
After thinking about it, she privately instructed Zhuying: "From Yanlan City to Jingzhou, you must send someone to investigate." If there is any trace of wanting, return immediately. ”
*****
I thought that Yun Xiangrong's disappearance was enough trouble, but not long after the housekeeper of the other courtyard left, someone from King Cheng's mansion also came-King Cheng's personal guard Feng Fei. And this person, Izumi doesn't want to see it even more.
"What's going on, it's all together." Izumi smiled and said to Yun Fengfang: "Today, I am weak and I don't see any guests. You're going back. ”
Yun Feng received the order and euphemistically drove Feng Fei back.
That night, there was another torrential rain in Yanlan City, and the sound of the rain was like a battlefield conquest, and the Jin Ge Iron Horse swept across the city. But the strange thing is that this night out of Xiu slept very peacefully, although the rain outside the house was pouring down, her heart was at peace.
In the early morning of the second day, Yun Feng came to report again, saying that Feng Fei, a guard from the Chengwang Mansion, came to visit. Izuku pondered for a moment, but finally decided to see him.
The place to meet was arranged in the waiting room in the outer courtyard of Yunfu, and Xiu deliberately rubbed for a while, and slowed down on the way, and when she walked to the waiting room, Feng Fei's tea had been cooled twice and changed twice.
"I don't know if the Feng guards are coming, what's the matter?" Izumi Yingying asked with a smile, very polite.
Feng Fei had a deep face, and said straight to the point: "I took the liberty to disturb Madame, I really have something to ask for." ”
Izuku pursed her lips and smiled, waiting for the following.
Feng Fei sighed heavily and said, "I won't tell you, for the past five days, His Royal Highness has come to the back wall of your mansion every night to give a, hoping to meet you unexpectedly and ask for your forgiveness...... This method is clumsy, which is tantamount to waiting for the rabbit, and he has also advised His Highness below. His Royal Highness was resolute and unwilling to visit again, so he had to serve every night and watch him suffer from pain. ”
Hearing this, Izuku only smiled and asked very calmly, "What does Guard Feng want to say?" ”
Feng Fei sighed: "Presumably, Madame doesn't know that when His Highness fought against Jiang Di many years ago, his right shoulder was seriously poisoned, and one arm was almost unable to be saved. Now every time it is windy and rainy, his entire back will hurt terribly, even an iron-boned man like His Royal Highness can't bear it, and the pain can be imagined......"
Feng Fei paused, and his tone was even more gloomy: "It suddenly rained in the city the night before, I don't know if you saw the rain...... After persuading His Highness to return to the house, he refused, insisting on drenching the rain and blowing the flute all night outside the back wall of your mansion, and he couldn't lift his whole arm...... But Rao is like this, His Highness still came last night! ”
Nie Peixiao is here again? This was unexpected, she thought that the heavy rain had been pouring down in the past two nights, and Nie Peixiao should have left a long time ago...... Thinking of the rain for two consecutive nights, and then thinking of Nie Peixiao's shoulder injury, how could he bear it?
This time it was Izuku's turn to sigh: "Thank you for Your Highness's love, please tell me that he doesn't have to come again in the future." ”
"If I could move him, I wouldn't have taken the liberty of coming to the door yesterday and today." Feng Fei finally showed a hint of urgency when he said this: "Last night, His Highness came to blow the flute again, and he was not allowed to use the umbrella, and he was drenched in the rain all night." He was physically and mentally damaged for two consecutive nights, and he was already in a high fever this morning, and he kept talking nonsense, and one of his right arms was ...... I'm afraid it hurts the muscles and bones! ”
"You mean his right arm ......?" Izuku suddenly didn't dare to ask any more.
Feng Fei shook his head slowly, and said in a deep voice: "The doctor has come to see it, but His Highness doesn't take care of his body, although his right arm is not useless, but I am afraid that he will be slow to move in the future and will not be able to bear weight......
"Your Highness is a dignified nobleman, and he has also galloped on the battlefield to deter the enemy, but from now on, he will no longer be able to lift a sword or a halberd, or hold a sword or gun!" Feng Fei became more and more excited as he spoke, and it was difficult to hide his blame for Izumi: "How much affection His Royal Highness has for his wife, I can see it clearly from the sidelines. No man is born wise or learned? Madame refused to see her, His Royal Highness ......"
"Guard Feng doesn't need to say much." Chuxiu cut off his words: "You directly tell the concubine what you need the concubine to do." ”
"I want to invite Madame to go to King Cheng's Mansion to see His Highness." Feng Fei was full of pleading: "Now His Royal Highness has a high fever that does not go away, the whole person is groggy, and the doctor also said that it is a heart disease......
Heart disease? Who can not have a heart disease? If she goes to treat Nie Peixiao's heart disease, then who can treat her own heart disease? Izumi laughed at herself slightly in her heart, and refused without hesitation: "Since His Royal Highness King Cheng has a high fever and is groggy, he will not know that the concubine is gone. Feng guards, please go back, the concubine will not go. ”
"Is Madame so desperate?" Feng Fei was anxious when he saw this: "Your Highness, he is in danger......"
"When you are in danger, you have your own divine doctor to diagnose and treat you, what is the use of having a concubine?" Izumi replied calmly: "The concubine is not a heartless person, and it is not that she does not care about His Royal Highness King Cheng at all. But since the two of me have made a decision, everything is over, and now if I go to King Cheng's Mansion again, isn't the concubine deceiving herself and your Highness? ”
At this point, Izuku almost felt it: "It's useless to drink to quench your thirst, and I ask Feng Guards to patiently persuade His Highness and let him recover as soon as possible." After that, she got up without any nostalgia: "Please forgive the concubine for being rude, unable to comply with your request." ”
"Isn't there a glimmer of room to turn around?" Feng Fei asked again in a deep voice.
"If there is no interruption, there will be chaos. I also hope that Feng Guards will understand. "Izumi has a resolute attitude.
Hearing this, Feng Fei just sneered: "I really feel cold for His Highness in Xia, he is infatuated with the wrong person." ”
"It's not too late to take it back." Izumi forced herself to be cold, and took the lead in getting up and saying to the door: "Zhuying, send off." ”
Feng Fei clenched his fists tightly and said coldly: "If His Royal Highness has three long and two short, can you rest assured, madam?" ”
Izuku remained indifferent. Seeing this, Feng Fei had no choice but to leave in a bad mood.
When the two were talking about Nie Peixiao's condition, Izumi didn't expect that he would be so sick this time. Later, she heard that Nie Peixiao's condition did not improve for a month, with high fever from time to time and cold sweat from time to time.
As for Feng Fei, he never came to Yunfu again, he was busy taking care of Nie Peixiao every day, for fear that there would be repeated accidents in this condition in the long run, so he sent a message to Ying Yuan Palace, which alarmed Empress Dowager Ye.
Nie Peixiao is the only son of the Empress Dowager Ye Yingfei, and after she heard about her son's condition, she was naturally very anxious, and did not hesitate to rush to Yanlan City with several imperial doctors. And the Heavenly Emperor had no reason to obstruct it.
Finally, after Nie Peixiao was ill for a month and a half, in the hottest summer of Yanlan City, Empress Dowager Ye rode Yanlan City in the dust.
The moon-colored straight-necked brocade dress, the concubine's red and golden begonia flower luantail long skirt, the headdress is complicated, and the rings are ringing, and the Empress Dowager Ye wears the wealth all over her body, which is indeed well-maintained, and it seems that she is only in her early forties.
As soon as she entered Yanlan City, she immediately ordered to stop, lifted the curtain and looked at the four white marble arches standing from afar. Along the way, she had already learned the causes and consequences of Nie Peixiao's illness, and she was even more resentful of Mrs. Xie and the Yun family.
"What a Mrs. Xie, what a Mrs. Xiu." Empress Dowager Ye gritted her silver teeth and said hatefully, raised her hand and pointed to the last archway of chastity, and gave an order without hesitation: "Send someone to smash the mourning family!" ”
