readx;? Pain is never innate, but at this time it follows closely, like a shadow. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the dimly lit cell, Hua Yueman curled up on the shabby straw mat, beads of sweat the size of beans across her cheeks, dripping on the straw mat, and the weakness of her whole body made it a luxury for her to bite her lips tightly.
Shattered memories poured into her brain like the tip of a sharp knife, and she seemed to remember something, but she didn't seem to remember anything.
She seemed to see that she was sitting in front of the shabby desk, writing something with a pen, and her face was so calm at that time, but the hand holding the brush couldn't stop trembling again and again.
The pitch-black ink, as she trembled, dripped on the snow-white rice paper, blurring one after another eye-catching black ink flowers.
A man in black stood beside her silently along the window, but she didn't seem to see anything, just slowly stood up, and slowly held up the letter full of shocking ink flowers to the bright moon, as if she was drying the handwriting on it, and seemed to want to cover her tear-stained face at this time.
Hua Yueman was like a spectator, standing quietly in her lost memory, looking at her in the past, obviously wanting to cry out loud but trying her best to endure it, obviously so unwilling to want to, but finally handed the letter to the man in black.
She heard herself say, "I'll just get married." ”
The man in black looked at her quietly for a long time, and said four words without any emotion: "The emperor's order is difficult." ”
Such a simple conversation made Hua Yueman, who was immersed in her memories, like a lightning strike, and she was stunned and let the illusion in her mind fade a little bit, but the whole person couldn't stop shaking her head.
If it's not like this, how can it be like this?
She had seen this scene before, on the night of the Great Sima Mansion......
It's just that she obviously received a letter at that time, but why did she write a letter now? Is it writing a letter or receiving a letter? Is it because her mind is confused? Or is one of the memories fake? Is it not at all?
Qiqiao was so frightened that she couldn't help crying, although she didn't know what kind of pain Hua Yueman was suffering at this moment, but just looking at Hua Yueman's unspeakable look was enough to make her sad to tears.
"Mother, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you......"
Hua Yueman, who was isolated from memory, slowly opened his eyes, looked at Qiqiao's smiling face that was crying in a hurry, moved his pale lips, and smiled weakly: "What are you crying about? I'm just typhoid fever." ”
Qiqiao shook his head in disbelief: "Niangniang, don't lie to me, how can typhoid fever hurt......"
Hua Yueman smiled breathlessly, and slowly sat up with the support of Qiqiao, and as the blurred vision in front of her slowly became clear, she knew that this was her chance to breathe.
The disappearance of one wave of pain is a sign of another wave of pain coming, and there is a gap between each pain and pain, although the time is not very long, but it is enough for her to take a breath, otherwise the successive pains really make her a little unbearable.
"Quack-la-la-" The door at the end of the corridor opened, and several officials slowly walked in.
Qiqiao looked at those people who were walking towards this side, and subconsciously blocked Hua Yueman behind him: "You, what do you want to do?"
The way she stood up like a little beast made the servants a little confused.
One of the officials opened the iron lock of the cell and smiled politely at Hua Yueman: "You can go." ”
Qiqiao was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but slowly widen his eyes: "What's wrong with you people? There was no reason to arrest us when you came, and there was no reason to let us go, what the hell is this for?"
The officials didn't know what was going on, they did everything according to the instructions from above, and now in the face of Qiqiao's doubts and responsibilities, they were just silent except for silence.
Hua Yueman waved his hand: "Why bother with them, they are just doing things for others." While motioning for Qiqiao to help him up, he slowly walked out of the cell.
She didn't know who she was provoking her, but now that the man was willing to let her go, there was no reason for her to stay here any longer.
Besides, the pain in her body was only temporarily relieved, and the pain that came back after a while was ten times more painful than the pain just now, if she didn't leave now, she wouldn't have the strength to walk out even if she wanted to go.
The cell of the county yamen is not big, but it is only a dozen steps to the door, but before Hua Yueman can go out with Qiqiao, he sees a group of officials walking in with a group of people.
Hua Yueman pulled Qiqiao back a few steps, originally intending to make way for the officials, but she didn't expect that as those escorted people slowly walked in, her eyes full of tiredness suddenly widened.
This, this is ......
She looked at the people who walked in in disbelief, from men to women, from old to young, all of them were people in her garden, these people were small and small, to those little flowers, and even Miss Mei was arrested.
Miss Mei, whose cheeks were red and swollen, also saw the full moon of flowers, and couldn't help but be stunned.
Qiqiao was stunned and exclaimed: "Why are we leaving, and you are all arrested again?
Qiqiao's words made Miss Mei, who had just been stunned, completely come back to her senses, she ignored the obstruction of those officials, rushed to the front of Hua Yueman like crazy, and held her hand.
"You help me, even if you don't help me, you can help Gui Bai......"
Hua Yueman was hit by Miss Mei on the cold wall, and her whole body, which was already in pain, was shocked, but she didn't care about the pain, and instead held Miss Mei's hand: "You make it clear, what happened?"
Miss Mei was so anxious that her eyes were full of tears, and her thin body trembled: "I made it clear to the person who should have spoken, but I didn't expect him to be so despicable......"
In the latter words, there is no need for Miss Mei to say, Hua Yueman also understands that the troupe is so down, it must be that Master Li is playing tricks behind his back.
Although she admired Miss Mei's courage, at this time, she wanted to slap Miss Mei to death: "You can find it yourself, but why do you want to drag the whole troupe to bury you?!"
It's really smart, confused for a while, and I don't want to have a showdown with that kind of old man with rich money and extremely good face, it's basically equivalent to hitting a stone with an egg!
Miss Mei knew that she was wrong, and she also knew that everything she said now was in vain, she had always been condescending, and she didn't defend herself for the first time, but just pleaded with Hua Yueman over and over again: "Guibai was taken away by him, I beg you to save Guibai......"
Hua Yueman actually wanted to laugh in the face of Miss Mei who was in a hurry to go to the doctor, but now she knows that she is in a hurry, what did she think about at the beginning?
The officials on the side looked confused, but listening to the conversation between Miss Mei and Hua Yueman, they realized that the woman they were going to let go now was also a person in the opera garden.
As a result, the officials were entangled, and the above explained that the woman was released, but they also told everyone in the troupe to be locked up.
This......
After a few of the leading officials discussed, they grabbed the Qiqiao who was holding the full moon.
Qiqiao struggled: "What are you going to do?"
The depressed people looked at Hua Yueman and smiled: "The girl can go, but this girl must stay." ”
Qiqiao was stunned: "Mother, Miss ......"
Hua Yue was full of headaches, and reached out to snatch Qiqiao back, but her eyes were dizzy again.
Seeing this, the officials immediately made a decision, and while putting Hua Yueman, who was struggling, out of the cell, they pushed Qiqiao and Miss Mei and others into the cell.
The streets of Zishi were empty, and the universities that had been accumulated in the sky for a long time finally fell one after another, and the goose feathers and snow were dense and fast, but it was just a blink of an eye, that is, everything around was plated with a layer of silver white.
Hua Yueman, who was kicked out of the county jail cell by the officials, endured the pain in her body and shouted again, and slowly walked on the lifeless street, the temperature around her was obviously cold and shivering, but she was a big bead of sweat falling down.
She just doesn't want to take care of the mess in the opera garden now, because Qiqiao has also become one of them, she is indeed not a saint, and she can't do it for the people, but she can't care about Qiqiao's life and death.
The cold wind was raging, and she trembled and walked in the direction of the Li Mansion, fortunately, she had been to the Li Mansion once with the troupe, although some of the memories were not very clear, but after walking and stopping on the street, groping for half an hour, she finally stood under the steps of the Li Mansion.
At this time, she was completely wet and her feet were floating, leaning against the stone statue at the entrance of the mansion, gasping for breath, trying to relieve the growing pain.
The little man who guarded the door noticed the movement behind the stone statue, walked over cautiously, and saw the embarrassed appearance of Hua Yueman's body, and immediately wanted to drive her away.
Hua Yueman covered her chest weakly, looked at the little guy and panted and said, "I am a relative of Xueqiao, if you dare to touch me, I will let Xueqiao smash your job." ”
The little guy was stunned for a moment, and blinked suspiciously, although he didn't look at Hua Yueman's poor virtue like a relative of Xueqiao, but for the sake of insurance, he still turned around and went into the house to spread the word.
Hua Yueman's vision was ghosted again, looking at the back of the little girl running farther and farther away, and then sliding down the stone statue and falling on the snow without knowing it.
She was actually not sure if Xueqiao was here, she didn't see it when she was in the cell just now, she drew a question mark in her heart, and then remembered that time Guibai was sent to Master Li's room, the conversation between Xueqiao and Master Li, she just estimated that Xueqiao would be here.
Xueqiao wants Guibai to become Master Li's person, undoubtedly he wants to climb up, and now Miss Mei has offended Master Li by adding to herself, if Xueqiao doesn't take the opportunity to see that it is a good Master Li, it is really not her character.
Now, looking at the way the little girl hurriedly ran into the door of the mansion, Hua Yue was full of pain, and hooked the corners of her lips, it seems that she is right, Xueqiao is really in the Li Mansion.
