Body 191. In search of an antidote
"Or! Let your subordinates go in, find a solution and come back to tell the pavilion master! Xiu Fei continued to persuade.
"No! We don't know when we will find the antidote, and the longer it drags on, the more worrying it becomes, I feel uncomfortable watching Jiu'er, and I feel uncomfortable too! I'll take her in, if you don't worry, just take your brothers with you, first and then take care of them! Jun Yixi said very easily.
"Yes! Pavilion Master! Xiufei agreed.
"Then you go and prepare, let's move tomorrow morning"
"Subordinates understood!" Xiu Fei clenched his fists and left.
Liu Jiu'er moved her fingers, her whole body was still very uncomfortable, her eyes couldn't be opened, and she didn't know how many days she had been asleep, where she was now, and who was taking care of her.
I'm like a bulky doll, I can only stay here and be at the mercy of others.
Jun Yixi watched Xiu Fei leave, closed the door and walked towards the bed, Liu Jiu'er has been acting restless since last night, her brows have been furrowed, I don't know what she is thinking,
Gently holding up Liu Jiu'er's hand, the wound on this little hand is still obvious, no wonder the old doctor can see it at a glance, too! It was because of this illness that he left, and it is normal for him to be sensitive.
The dishes were presented one by one, Zhong Xianren learned that he didn't have to pay for so many dishes, and his face suddenly became a little ugly, although Liufu did have money, but men and women eat, how could there be women who pay!
It's obviously my favorite food, but it's not as pleasant to eat as before.
"It's the dish Xuan'er ordered, doesn't Gongzi Zhong like to eat it?" Yao Meixuan saw that Zhong Xianren ate very little, and she became worried.
"Nope! I just feel that I don't have enough face, and I have dinner with Xuan'er, since I let Xuan'er pay. Zhong Xianren explained, his eyes colliding with Yao Meixuan's.
"Nope! I didn't pay for this, so Zhong Gongzi didn't have to mind. Yao Meixuan hurriedly shook her hand, she didn't know who paid for it!
"That's what your family paid for, hey! I ate what you invited today, and I don't know when I can invite you back! Zhong Xianren put down his chopsticks, and he was very embarrassed from the face.
"This-" Yao Meixuan can't say that this is not paid by her family, it was paid by someone she doesn't know, in case she says this, it will be bad for Zhong Xianren to misunderstand, of course this is not the point, Zhong Xianren said that he wanted to invite back, but how to invite back! She is a girl's house, and she can only spend every day of the month in the house, not to mention please come back, even if it is very difficult to meet.
"I know! Prime Minister Liu Cheng will not agree to you coming out, so you lose your dignity again! Hi! The girls among your officials are troublesome, look at how much personality the girls who grew up in the people are! You can do whatever you want, both bold and free. Zhong Xianren's words were still complaining, feeling that the people around him did not reply, and suddenly felt that what he said was serious, and looked up at Yao Meixuan, who was just eating silently.
"Sorry! I didn't mean that! I just think that the girls in your officials' family have a lot of rules. ”
"I know! Zhong Gongzi, you are right! No need to apologize, I also thought that it would be nice if I could go out of the house often. Yao Meixuan shook her head, she didn't know how to answer in this way, this is just the old rules.
"Then Xuan'er, when is our next meeting?" At this time, Zhong Xianren's voice began to pay attention, and he stared at Yao Meixuan completely, trying to see some clues from her eyes, but unfortunately there was nothing.
"I—I don't know!" Yao Meixuan shook her head, and then avoided Zhong Xianren's gaze.
"Xuan'er, I've always had a question for you." In order not to be embarrassed by each other, Zhong Xianren changed the topic again.
"Huh? What? ”
"Prime Minister Liu's surname is Liu, why don't you follow your father's surname?" Shouldn't they all follow their father's last name? This is common sense!
"This-" Hearing this question, Yao Meixuan's face suddenly turned cold, even if she is her father's daughter, but Liufu doesn't recognize her!
"Or are you not Prime Minister Liu's daughter, but just sent by relatives outside in Liufu." Chung Hyun Ren then asked.
Yao Meixuan shook her head silently.
"Sure enough! I just said it, otherwise why wouldn't you follow the prime minister's surname! Zhong Xianren patted his thigh as he spoke, looking like he suddenly realized,
Yao Meixuan knew that the other party had misunderstood.
"And what house are you a relative of?"
"I am the daughter of Prime Minister Liu, the daughter of the outer room, because I was born in February, I was born from my mother's womb with the life of my father, in order to avoid suspicion that I was burdened by my mother, I moved directly from the west wing to the most remote corner of Liufu, and since then I have followed my mother's surname." Yao Meixuan said 1510, her eyes red as she spoke.
"Excessive! How can this be! No matter how Ke's father is also his own daughter! Such treatment is really incomprehensible. I can't guess how you were wronged in Liufu. Zhong Xianren said very sincerely, he couldn't imagine what kind of treatment Yao Meixuan would be at home, and whether she would live a happy life.
"Zhong Gongzi, don't say that, I heard my mother mention that my father treated me and my mother so coldly, that is a kind of protection, only indifference is the best kind of protection, I believe that my father cares about me and loves me." When Yao Meixuan said this, she felt that she was weak-hearted, but her mother believed that her father was caring, so she believed it.
"Is that also care and love? Shouldn't care and love be guarded by your side? If it were my wife, I would give her the best life and love her with all my heart, not like your father! Zhong Xianren was a little excited.
"......" Yao Meixuan was silent, what Zhong Xianren said even made her feel very reasonable, why did her mother keep speaking for her father, but her father treated them like this.
"Sorry! I'm excited again! I don't have the right to say that about your father, and I apologize to you for what I just said! Never mind! I finished eating and left first. ”
"Don't!" Seeing that Zhong Xianren was about to stand up, Yao Meixuan hurriedly stopped, saying goodbye today, when will they meet again? "You didn't eat anything either! Besides, after ordering so much, how can I finish it alone-" Yao Meixuan's voice became smaller and smaller until she disappeared.
Zhong Xianren turned his head, the two looked at each other, there was a kind of communication that was to look at each other, Yao Meixuan silently bit her lower lip, she saw a very unfamiliar emotion in Zhong Xianren's eyes, he seemed to be forbearing, enduring something, she didn't know, and she couldn't guess.
"Miss!" At the moment when the two looked at each other, the voice of the two suddenly interrupted the two.
Yao Meixuan looked at the voice of the child, the child was standing at the gate, and since the person standing next to the child was her mother, Yao Meixuan stood up incredulously, and she didn't find any other relatives behind her mother, so her mother came alone, since her father was willing to let her mother come alone? This is the first time that his mother has gone out alone since she married into Liufu.
"Mother-" Yao Meixuan shouted silently, and Zhong Xianren's shoulders beside her suddenly shook, and she hurriedly looked at Yao Shuirou.
"Xuan'er!" The third aunt walked towards Yao Meixuan's dining table with tears in her eyes, listening to her tell her about each other's experiences along the way, it was like a nightmare, if Xuan'er wanted to study in exchange for this terrifying form, then she hoped that Xuan'er would stay away from learning for the rest of her life. "Let my mother see if the injury is serious.
"Mother, Xuan'er Fu's life is not very serious, I don't believe my mother, take a look!" Yao Meixuan said and turned around Yao Shuirou, endured the pain from her footsteps, turned as naturally as possible, and then held the third aunt's hand.
"It's okay! It's okay, my mother is relieved! When something like this happens, it really makes my mother worry and afraid! The third aunt also held Xuan'er's hand, and then she realized that there was an extra person beside Xuan'er, and it was a man.
"This—" Yao Shuirou looked at Zhong Xianren.
"Mother! This is Zhong Xianren, the son of Zhong, who is the cousin of the second lady of Jiang Fu. Seeing that Zhong Xianren's expression was a little embarrassed, Yao Meixuan hurriedly explained.
"So you are Zhong Xianren, the man who gave Xuan'er a handkerchief?" Being introduced like this, the third aunt's entire gaze fell on Zhong Xianren, he was a man who fascinated his baby daughter! Well, this looks also very handsome, could it be that Xuan'er would fall in love with him at first sight. However, this Zhong Xianren looks like a charlatan, and it seems that he is not the heir of a person in the official mansion.
"Aunt Liu San is auspicious! It was in Xia, that day in Quanshan, that I saw Miss Xuan'er crying, so I gave her handkerchief, hoping that she could regain her smile. Zhong Xianren respectfully clenched his hands into fists.
"No courtesy, no courtesy! You don't have to be so polite! I'm just an unfavored aunt, so thank you for your encouragement to the little girl at that time! The third aunt waved her hand, and when she said this, she didn't show any frustration, as if it wasn't her own business, she beckoned to Yao Meixuan and Zhong Xianren and motioned for everyone to sit down: "I'm hungry when I came over!" Don't mind sitting down and eating together! ”
"Aunt Liu San is polite! Miss Xuan'er is cute and beautiful, she shouldn't have cried in the first place, and Xiaoxian's gift of handkerchief is just a simple comfort and has no other meaning! Moreover, Xiaoxian suddenly thought that he had something to do, and was about to say goodbye to Miss Xuan'er and say goodbye. On the other hand, Zhong Xianren did not take a seat, but asked for his resignation again.
"Then we will see you again! Aunt and Xuan'er won't send it. The third aunt opened her mouth with a smile.
"Please stay!" After Zhong Xianren finished speaking, he turned to leave.
Seeing that Zhong Xianren was determined to leave, she obviously kept it, why couldn't he wait so much! Also, it's her who is excited, not him, now that his mother and relatives have appeared, there is no need for him to accompany him, besides, what kind of identity does he take to accompany him!
"Xuan'er! Don't expect anything that doesn't belong to you, eat! The third aunt's voice was indifferent, which made Yao Meixuan's eyes red.
"Mother! You know that Xuan'er is reluctant, and the next time you see Zhong Gongzi, you don't know when it will be. Two lines of tears still slid down the corners of his eyes, drawing a perfect arc on his cheeks. It's a pity that her tears, the other party doesn't care at all, because he has already shaken off his hand and left. Then why was the gentleness just now!
Looking at Yao Meixuan's silent tears, the third aunt sighed, now Xuan'er's pain, she can understand, she has not been favored for more than ten years, even if she is an aunt, she will regret it in this life.
"Mother, Xuan'er is so uncomfortable!" After Yao Meixuan finished speaking, she reached out and grabbed the collar on her chest.
"Xuan'er, your future husband can't be chosen by yourself, the marriage of any child in Liufu is decided by the lord and his wife, so it's all in vain for you to be tempted by anyone now, give up! If you and Zhong Gongzi have fate, then make an appointment to meet in the next life. ”
"Sister Jiu'er promised to help me!" Yao Meixuan shook her head and said.
"What's the use of your sister Jiu'er agreeing to help! Her marriage is all decided by the emperor, and even the lord and wife can't interfere in the management, Xuan'er, why are you so naïve! ”
"But—"
"No, no! After eating, we will go upstairs to rest, and we will pack up and leave early tomorrow morning. ”
"Mother!" Yao Meixuan was unwilling to be authentic.
"......" The third aunt picked up the chopsticks and began to eat, without paying any attention.
This matter is not as simple as Xuan'er imagined, this girl is too naïve, she will be willing to believe in others in everything, the third aunt believes that Jiu'er really wants to help, because her recent actions are to protect Xuan'er, but marriage is a major event, she is a three girls in Liufu, she has no right to interfere, even if she wants to interfere with the lord and Mrs., she will not agree, right, she knows the ending, why do you want to give hope!
They are women, without a strong identity, they can only be at the mercy of others, and the lord of Liufu is already benevolent, and the third aunt is satisfied.
Entering the broken mountainside bend again, Jun Yixi has already fully armed Liu Jiu'er, another night has passed, Jiu'er still hasn't woken up, a night of constant dreaming, but it's a pity to mutter, he Jun Yixi can't hear a word clearly, fortunately, the fever has subsided, the old doctor said when he left, as long as the fever can be reduced overnight, if you want to be cured, there is still hope, and he wishes them to find the antidote smoothly.
There is no normal road at the bend of the broken mountain, and the so-called roads are all formed by people walking, so it is very difficult for the carriage to pass.
"Pavilion Master! The further you go, the narrower it becomes, and the subordinates think that the carriage may not be able to pass. Xiufei proposed in front of the car.
"Is that the wrong way? I remember that the road to the heart of the Broken Mountainside Bend was not too narrow. Jun Yixi lifted the curtain in the carriage and looked out, he also knew that there were mountain roads here, and it was very inconvenient for even a carriage to pass by, but Jiu'er's condition was serious, and he could only walk in a carriage.
"Back to the pavilion master, the subordinates really didn't walk to the center, before the pavilion lord asked his subordinates to inquire if the shrugging Gu people appeared again, the subordinates in the center have already checked, it's just a group of very simple residential areas, so the subordinates concluded that the antidote will not be produced over there, and this path is different, it has been leading very deep, obviously surrounded by big trees, but a road can be clearly seen under the feet, so the subordinates think that the extension of this road will definitely not be too simple."
Hearing Xiu Fei say this, Jun Yixi also looked towards the ground, sure enough, there could not have been a road here, but he could clearly see the traces left by walking, it was obvious that someone had passed by, if Xiu Fei said that the center of the broken mountainside bend was just the residence of the Gu people, then this place might not be simple.
"That's good! Let's go this way. Jun Yixi nodded in the car and lowered the curtain.
The road began to stumble again, Jun Yixi brought enough detoxified herbs, the herbs have been ground into mud, just to be able to disinfect Jiu'er in time, a reasonable care last night, Jiu'er's pus has a gradual effect, Jun Yixi clenched Liu Jiu'er's hand, the other party's little hand was a little cold, Jun Yixi hurriedly held the back and forth poke hand with both hands, but the harder she worked, Jiu'er's brows wrinkled tighter, too, it should have been put on her wound, it hurt for two days and two nights, and this pain has made her very sensitive.
"Mother, Jiu'er is in pain, uncomfortable—" Liu Jiu'er began to dream again.
Jun Yixi hurriedly stopped poking his hand, damn it! This little woman won't always imagine his existence as Wang's! Wang's hand won't be as lenient as his!
At this moment, the carriage stopped, and the horse stopped too fast, causing a whistling, Xiu Fei hurriedly calmed in front, lest the horse's whistling alarm the Gu people, otherwise it would be troublesome.
Putting down Jiu'er's hand, Jun Yixi asked, "What's the matter?" Why don't you go? ”
"Pavilion master, we can't drive ahead, I'm afraid we have to walk." Xiufei replied outside the car.
"Good! Then go in on foot, and you send a few brothers to hide the carriage, so as not to startle the snakes. Jun Yixi answered, and then looked at Liu Jiu'er who was lying on the side.
"What about the Pavilion Master, Miss Liu San?" Xiu Fei asked.
"It's okay, I'll carry her in. You greet your brothers first, wait for me to come out outside, and after you go in, you won't follow too many people around you, and you have always been vigilant about Gu people, so it's better for us to be careful. It's better that the pus on Jiu'er's body doesn't see the sun, so I have to wrap her more tightly. ”
"Yes! Pavilion Master. ”
Last night, I invited the woman of the inn to help Jiu'er clean her body, and put on the medicinal mud he made himself, after all, Jiu'er has not passed the door, and it is still very bad for him to help clean up this matter. But when this group of women saw the pus on Jiu'er's body, they all expressed pity, they guessed what it was at the first time, and it was obvious that the poisonous insects that broke the mountainside had imprinted an indelible fear in the hearts of the people in this area. Some people even persuaded him that Jiu'er's illness could not be cured, so why did he have to enter the broken mountainside again to take risks!
It is because the other party is Jiu'er that Jun Yixi will resolutely choose to take risks, if he can't even protect his beloved woman, what kind of face does he Jun Yixi have to be the title of a master of the rivers and lakes, he will despise himself.
