Chapter 40: Nanshan
When Shangguan Xun woke up, it was almost evening, and a thin red cloud was floating in the sky.
He was still a little dazed when he slowly opened his eyes, and it wasn't until the pinprick-like pain in his head came alive for no apparent reason that he finally covered his head and shouted out before he fainted.
"Ahh
Zhang Yuanniang, who had been taking care of her for an afternoon and was drowsy, was startled, and her chin almost hit the edge of the bed, but fortunately, Shangguan Yue, who was standing behind her with nothing to do, helped her.
But Zhang Yuanniang pulled Shangguan Yue's hand away, turned around and fell on Shangguan Xun, her expression full of worry.
"Xiangye, Xiangye, what's wrong with you, is it still painful? I'm going to call the doctor right away! ”
This sincerity also made Shangguan Xun, whose head was still throbbing, stunned for a moment, but it was only for a moment.
Then he grabbed Zhang Yuanniang's hand and asked.
"What time is it?"
"It's already time, is there anything important about Xiangye?"
Shangguan Xun's expression was a little impatient, and he calmed down after hearing Zhang Yuanniang's words.
"Yuan Niang, you and Yue'er go and call the doctor first."
This is obviously driving people away, and of course Zhang Yuanniang can hear it. finally offered her hospitality in front of Shangguan Xun, but she didn't get anything in return, which couldn't help but make her a little unwilling.
Although she thought so in her heart, she just nodded obediently on her face, and then went out with Shangguan Yue.
Zhang Yuanniang and Shangguan Yue had just left the house with their front feet, and Shangguan Xun had one more person with his front and back feet.
The shape is strong, the face is public, but a black mole on the side of the mouth makes this person a little more recognizable.
As soon as Shangguan Xun saw this person, he immediately asked eagerly.
"Did Shangguan Li find anything?"
"No, I've sealed the mechanism to go to the secret room, the key is here, it's fine for the time being."
As he spoke, he took out a bronze key, which was still stained with a little rust, and it looked like it would break if he broke it casually.
But when Shangguan Xun saw the key, it was as if he had seen a peerless treasure, and he hurriedly took it and put it in his arms.
It was only at this moment that Shangguan Xun finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The things in that secret room are really invisible, and if Shangguan Li finds out, he will have to do whatever it takes to get rid of her.
But now that His Royal Highness King Yu is grounded, he can't give him too much support for the time being, and if there is less people to help suppress the wind, his actions will attract a lot of attention, and if the other party catches a flaw at that time, it will be troublesome.
Fortunately, Shangguan Li didn't have time yet, so he took the lead again.
"Xiangye can't relax."
The man who was standing suddenly spoke up, and lifted up the breath that Shangguan Xun had just put down.
"Shangguan Li is a woman that our master admires, her ability to use poison is far beyond your imagination, if you despise her, you will suffer."
"Nanshan, you said your family ......"
Shangguan Xun paused, as if there was something taboo about the word "master", so he changed his words.
"Did I fight you, a rebel?"
A sneer suddenly appeared on Nanshan's originally expressionless face.
"Fighting? It's just that the insects raised below have come into contact with her. ”
"So, which ones did you send this time?"
Nanshan pointed to himself.
Shangguan Xun's face turned slightly pale: "Just you?" ”
Faced with this questioning sentence, Nanshan was not angry, but replied truthfully.
"I'm the only one. The situation in Suzhou was not very good, and we divided a lot of people to go there. Moreover, I'm not here to help you kill Shangguan Li, just to make sure that the things in your mansion are not discovered. ”
Suzhou is the place where An Wang is inspecting.
Shangguan Xun instantly figured out the key to it.
For King Yu, no matter how powerful Shangguan Li is, she is just alone, and it is harmless.
But King An is different, not only is he deeply trusted by His Majesty, but the power in the court and China is not inferior to His Royal Highness, compared to him, Shangguan Li does not seem so important.
Thinking like this, Shangguan Xun nodded.
"Then you will live in the Prime Minister's Mansion temporarily, and you can mention it whenever you need it, as long as you help me keep an eye on Shangguan Li!"
Nanshan tugged at the corners of his mouth, noncommittal.
It was getting late, and a red cloud in front of the mountain finally lost its last bit of brilliance and sank into darkness.
The lake breeze was cold, from the bottom up, pouring in from the wide open window on the second floor of the Lingshui Pavilion.
Shangguan Li sat by the window, did not light the lamp, and quietly looked at the brightly lit Fuying Courtyard.
Although there have always been maids in and out of the house holding soup and medicine, but those aunts who rushed to serve the sick after hearing the news were blocked by Zhang Yuanniang one by one at the door, it seems that her status is indeed unique.
watched a lively scene, and the person who Shangguan Li expected to enter the small kitchen never appeared.
At noon, she pulled a spider silk at the door of the kitchen, and if someone came in from outside, it was difficult to notice the almost transparent spider silk under her feet in the backlight.
Of course, it is not excluded that people who are extremely cautious may be the exception, but the person who entered the small kitchen clearly does not belong to this exception.
He must have done something so that she couldn't find what was hidden in the small kitchen for the time being. After that, he will definitely go to Shangguan Xun.
But Zhang Yuanniang has been in Fuying Courtyard, even if Shangguan Xun loves her again, these secrets will not be known to Zhang Yuanniang.
So here's the problem.
Shangguan Li didn't see this person, not only the front door, but also all the back doors, side walls, and even behind the trees, she paid attention, but they all fell short.
Then there are only two possibilities.
Either that person entered the Fuying Courtyard before Shangguan Li came back from the dining room, and then hid until evening.
Or, there is a passage under the Prime Minister's Mansion that she doesn't know.
Which one it is is still to be verified by her.
Shangguan Li thought about it, and threw a grape into her mouth casually, she took a large plate from the dining room, and squinted her eyes as she ate.
"It's so sour.
No wonder the lady let her take the plate and things away so easily.
She shouted sour, but her hands did not stop, one by one unambiguously into her mouth.
While eating, the brain spins.
Although she was very interested in what Shangguan Xunfei had hidden so hard, her top priority was to find out the truth about the poisoning of the original body.
That's what she's coming back for.
Thinking about it, Shangguan Li put down the big plate, took out a set of night clothes from the backpack at hand and changed it into, and then gently and skillfully jumped down from the second floor on the glazed tiles.
No one has cleaned up the clutter piled up at the door, which just serves as a buffer for her to land safely.
Now isn't Zhang Yuanniang in Fuying Courtyard keeping up with Shangguan Xun, she just took this opportunity to go to her Zheliu Courtyard to investigate.
Avoiding the unmelted snow on the ground, Shangguan Li soon came to the vicinity of Zheliu Courtyard, which was very close to Fuying Courtyard, and it was difficult to say that Shangguan Xun had no other thoughts when he chose this as his winter residence.
There was no one around, and Shangguan Li lightly crossed the wall.
