Chapter 040: The Culprit
readx;?“ Doctor, do you know what kind of poison is in the general?" asked Gu Yan. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
He wasn't worried about the injury, after all, in the past on the battlefield, Gu Qingming had suffered more serious injuries than this, but he persevered, but what he was worried about now was the poison in Gu Qingming's body.
"This poisonous symptom is very peculiar, please forgive the old man for being clumsy, only shallow learning, I can't see what kind of poison this is. The doctor said, "For the sake of today's plan, the only way to save his life and detoxify is to detoxify, maybe the imperial doctors in Beijing can have a way." ”
After saying this, a rush of work followed.
Even if the conditions in Jiandong County are not very good, it still saves Gu Qingming's life.
According to what the doctor said, without further ado, they didn't rest, and directly carried Gu Qingming into the carriage, and Wu Qianwen took care of it inside.
The aftermath of Jiandong County and Ji'an County were all handed over to Sun Hui, and it is conceivable that Sun Hui will be able to replace Yang Hao's position and become the imperial historian of the court after this flood control, indirectly taking away the authority in the hands of the queen mother, and being able to fight against the prime minister.
In the carriage on her back, Wu Qianwen looked at the unconscious Gu Qingming with tears in her eyes, and her heart was full of grief.
"Miss Wu, don't cry, no matter how much you cry, the general won't wake up right now. Gu Yan said outside the carriage, "Please Miss Wu, with all due respect, in fact, Miss Wu didn't need to come to the south this time, saying that she was assisting the general in controlling the flood, but in fact, she was adding to the chaos." If it weren't for Miss Wu, who was regarded as the weakness of the general by the Beidi people, the general would not be lying here unconscious now. ”
Gu Yan was a little upset by Wu Qianwen's crying, so he said bluntly, blaming Wu Qianwen between the lines, without any mercy.
Wu Qianwen was stunned for a moment, she knew that Gu Yan was a military general in the army, he spoke upright, and he would not beat around the bush, but she didn't expect that she was originally obsessed with coming to the south to go hand in hand with Gu Qingming, but she didn't expect to become Beidi's handle to threaten Gu Qingming.
Gradually, her crying became quieter, only into a wordless choked voice, she looked at Gu Qingming who was unconscious, and felt guilty in her heart.
At the same time, in Daning Palace, Lu Yingquan still decided to tell Yun Yao the news of Gu Qingming's serious injury. Although she knew that Yun Yao might be a little unbearable because of this, it was much better to let Yun Yao be mentally prepared than to suddenly know the news of General Gu's serious injury and lose her temper in front of others.
"I thought that it was better not to tell Yun Yao about this matter for the time being, she had a deep affection for General Gu, and I was afraid that it would be difficult to accept it for a while. Shen Ze did not agree with Lu Yingquan's approach.
"But when General Gu returns to Beijing, she won't see General Gu, she will definitely ask the reason, if she knows about this matter at that time, won't it be the same result?" Lu Yingquan said, "Now I'm going to tell her, it's better to know from my mouth than from someone else's mouth." ”
Lu Yingquan insisted on his opinion, and after persuading Shen Ze, he left Changming Palace and went to Hehuan Palace.
It was still very hot at noon in August, but Lu Yingquan couldn't take care of it, she braved the heat to come to the Hehuan Palace, and under the leadership of the attendants of the Hehuan Palace, she went to Yun Yao's room.
At this time, Rong Ya was taking a nap in the afternoon, accompanied by Mama Qi and Zhuzhi, so Yun Yao was resting in her room, and suddenly heard a knock on the door, she opened the door in surprise, but saw Lu Yingquan standing outside the door, her face was a little gloomy.
"Yingquan, what's going on?" Yun Yao didn't know the news of Gu Qingming's serious injury, she only thought that Lu Yingquan had encountered something troublesome, so she showed such a face.
"Yun Yao, I have something I want to tell you. Lu Yingquan said, then entered the house, turned around and closed the door, pulled Yun Yao in, sat at the table, and handed the fold sent by Sun Hui from Jiandong County to Yun Yao.
In fact, it stands to reason that these excerpts in the court cannot be shown to Yun Yao, and the last time it was with Shen Ze's consent that they were shown to Yun Yao, but this time, it was Lu Yingquan who made his own opinion, because when she faced Yun Yao, she couldn't bear to tell her about General Gu's serious injury.
Yun Yao didn't know why, but she still picked up the fold and started to read it, and the moment she saw the handwriting, she knew that this time the fold was not written by Gu Qingming, but someone else.
The management of the floods in Ji'an County, the disputes in Jiandong County, and the successive assassinations and provocations of the Beidi people, this scene appeared in Yun Yao's mind, as if she had seen it with her own eyes.
But the more she looked back, the more frightened she became, when she saw the sentence "General Gu was seriously injured by an arrow, the arrow only passed through the shoulder, only three centimeters away from the vital point of the heart, the arrow was highly poisonous, and now he was unconscious, and he was on his way to the capital", the whole person was like a lightning strike, his face turned pale for a moment, and the fold in his hand fell to the ground with a click.
Yun Yao's eyes were full of disbelief, she couldn't imagine that the man with strong martial arts, the man who could fly to catch her when she fell off the Sun Tower, the man who could warm her with his true qi when she was alone in the cold prison, would be so seriously injured.
Lu Yingquan looked at Yun Yao, his face full of distress.
What she was afraid of was Yun Yao's expression, she didn't cry or make trouble, but she hid all her sadness in her heart, suppressed her emotions, and even cried out loud became a luxury.
"This must not be true, is it? General...... Martial arts are so high, how could he be so seriously injured?" Yun Yao grabbed Lu Yingquan's hand and asked, shaking her head incessantly.
"Yun Yao ......" Lu Yingquan suddenly didn't know what to say, "This is true, it is said that it was to save Wu Qianwen, so he fell for the enemy's tricks." But Yun Yao, you have to believe that General Gu survived all his life on the battlefield in the past, and this time he will definitely be fine!"
"Yes, he'll be fine!" Yun Yao listened to Lu Yingquan's comfort, and a firm belief was in her heart, and then she asked again, "When will he be able to arrive in the capital?"
"Lord Sun's excerpt and General Gu left Jiandong County at the same time, and the excerpt can reach the capital in two days by 800 miles, General Gu and they ...... If nothing else, it will be there the afternoon the day after tomorrow. Lu Yingquan said.
"I know, Yingquan, can you help me ask the emperor for something, when he comes back, I want to go and see him, stay by his side and take care of him. Yun Yao said, "The emperor must have a way." ”
"I'll tell the emperor. But Yun Yao, don't worry too much, the best doctors in Daning are all in the palace, and the imperial doctors will definitely save him. Lu Yingquan said, "I'm telling you about this today, because I'm afraid that you will hear about it from other people's mouths in a few days and reveal some clues." Take care of yourself, and when General Gu arrives in the capital, I will come back to you." ”
"Thank you, Izumi. Yun Yao whispered.
"What are you doing with me so politely? Well, I have to go back quickly while there's no one outside, so as not to be seen. Lu Yingquan said, "Take care of yourself and wait for my news." ”
After speaking, Lu Yingquan put away the fold, left Yun Yao's room, walked out of the Hehuan Palace, and quietly returned to Changming Palace while the summer heat at noon had not yet passed and there was no one outside.
Shen Ze was taking a lunch break, and Lu Yingquan didn't bother him, but sat on the side by himself, sorting out all the folds with a heavy mind, but he kept worrying about Yun Yao.
And Yun Yao locked the door after Lu Yingquan left, and then sat there with an expressionless face, but there was a heavy sadness.
After a long time, a clear tear left from the corner of her eye, and then she could no longer hold back, and the tears washed over her face like a bursting embankment, but she gritted her teeth and did not dare to cry.
She hated herself, why couldn't she be by his side and endure all this with him, she hated herself, when he was in his most difficult time, she could only be trapped in the deep palace and could not do anything.
There is also Wu Qianwen, just now Yingquan said that the general was injured to save Wu Qianwen, if there was no Wu Qianwen, would the general not be injured by those people?
Just when Yun Yao's thoughts were in turmoil, suddenly a cool breeze hit, the window of the room was opened and closed, and there was a squeaky sound, and when she looked up, she saw that there was one more person in the room, and the long sword in her hand was also on her neck.
This person was dressed in plain gray clothes and looked extremely low-key and inconspicuous, but the killing intent in his eyes was so obvious that Yun Yao shuddered.
Yun Yao looked at the person who came and looked at it carefully. The face was very unfamiliar, she had not seen it, but the long sword in this person's hand, the pattern on the hilt, she had seen it before, it was on Gu Qingming's sword.
"Are you General Gu's person?" Yun Yao had a judgment in his heart, so he took out a handkerchief and wiped away his tears, not panicking, but asked very calmly.
"Shut up, you don't deserve to mention the general, if it weren't for you, the general wouldn't have been seriously injured. Gu Chen's eyes were filled with intense anger, and it seemed that in the next second, he was going to make Yun Yao's body look different.
Yun Yao listened to this person's words and thought to herself in her heart. Martial arts are strong, and he can freely enter and exit the inner courtyard of the palace like Gu Qingming, and his status by Gu Qingming's side should not be low; knowing that Gu Qingming is seriously injured, he must have heard the conversation between her and Lu Yingquan just now, indicating that he has been near the Hehuan Palace, perhaps...... It's her neighborhood.
With the answer in her heart, Yun Yao took a deep breath and said, "Did General Gu let you enter the palace and follow me?" If you didn't enter the palace, would you be able to accompany the general to the south, like this...... The general's many helpers may not be so seriously injured. ”
"It's good that you know. Gu Chen has always been indifferent and doesn't talk much, but today he said so many words.
At the beginning, Gu Qingming asked him to enter the palace to protect Yun Yao, and recognized Yun Yao as the master, he didn't agree at all, and he didn't want to come, but he didn't expect that he didn't follow Gu Qingming out on a mission for the first time, and Gu Qingming was so seriously injured.
Therefore, he blamed Yun Yao for this responsibility.
Yun Yao knew the truth, and she blamed herself even more in her heart, she didn't resist, just said in a low voice: "The culprit is me, if you want to kill me, I won't resist, but please keep my life for the time being, because I want to wait for the general to come back and see him again." ”
In any case, she must see him and make sure that he is well, so that she can feel at ease.
