Chapter 515: The Princess and the Shadow 25
On the official ship, Shen Mingjiao listened to Alice's story and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
Alice grabbed a handful of melon seeds, with a relaxed attitude, as if telling the story of others,
"Hey! Don't get too into the drama! I made up all the stories to make you happy,"
Shen Mingjiao didn't respond to her, but asked, "I just want to know, how did that Barron die in the end?" ”
"Well...... she bit the shell of the melon seeds. Drawing on the ten tortures of your Han people, first skin and then five horses to divide the corpse, and die thoroughly! ”
Hearing that the person died, Shen Mingjiao was immediately relieved, and she said hatefully: "It's too cheap for him to split the corpse of the five horses, he should have a Ling Chi." ”
Alice: "That can't be helped, there is no executioner in the Great Moon Country. ”
She clapped her hands and stood up: "Okay, the story is over, why should you go!" ”
Shen Mingjiao obviously hadn't come out of this sad story yet, and couldn't help but ask: "What about later?" Floating Light's biological father is Berlin, right? ”
Alice didn't look back: "Guess! ”
After speaking, he waved his hand and slowly returned to the cabin with melon seeds.
Shen Mingjiao: "......" No wonder many people don't like to read serialized scripts, the story is broken at a critical moment, and it is too uncomfortable to scratch your heart and liver. So much so that seasickness is not so difficult!
……
Mayan City.
Fuguang and Feng Lisheng talked for a while before returning to the courtyard,
An An's laughter came from time to time in the room where Grandpa Sha was, and Fuguang walked in casually.
In the room, An An held a bamboo dragonfly back and forth, and with a gentle rub of two small hands, the bamboo dragonfly flew lightly.
The little girl jumped and reached out, but unexpectedly, the bamboo dragonfly smashed on her head under the inertia of inertia, and she didn't feel pain, her little hand flew up in the palm of her hand.
looked at Grandpa Sha's face full of admiration: "Grandpa, you can actually be a bamboo dragonfly, sure enough, the hidden masters are all-round." ”
Grandpa Sha was holding a thin bamboo in his hand, and his hand with a knife was steady and fast, and when he saw that An An liked it, he handed her another casually.
Jing Qi was not interested in playing with bamboo dragonflies, he stared at Grandpa Sha's action of cutting bamboo slices with burning eyes: "When will I be able to have this knife technique!"
However, Grandpa Sha, have you been to Daxia? Otherwise, how can you make a bamboo dragonfly! ”
Just now, Jon picked up a few bamboos out of nowhere and threw them in his hands. An An said that she wanted to make bamboo dragonflies, but this thing looked simple, and it was really impossible to do it, and An An almost cut her hand.
Grandpa Sha, who was in the house to close the pranayama, couldn't listen to it, so he took the knife in Jingqi's hand and made a bamboo dragonfly with a few clicks.
Jing Qi's insight has always been meticulous, but An An didn't think much about it at all: "What about him?" And no one stipulates that only the Great Xia Kingdom has bamboo dragonflies! ”
Jon on the side silently interjected, "We really don't have one in the Great Moon Country. ”
His eyes rolled and he immediately thought of the business scripture: "Since we don't have it in the Great Moon Kingdom, if we take it out and sell it, it will definitely be a particularly good business opportunity......"
However, An An had lost interest in doing business, and she happily pulled the two of them:
"We'll talk about this later, let's go, there is limited space in the house, let's go outside and play and see who can fly high!"
At this time, Fuguang walked in, and Fuguang touched An An's head: "What are you playing?" How to make a sweat! ”
The little girl stuck out her tongue and raised the bamboo dragonfly in her hand as if offering a treasure:
"Auntie, this is called a bamboo dragonfly, it is a toy for children to play with, and it was made for us by Grandpa Sha."
Fuguang deliberately teased her: "My aunt has never played with it, can An An give it to my aunt for a while!" ”
An An wrinkled her little face tangled, as if she had made up her mind, and let go of the hand holding the bamboo dragonfly:
"That aunt can only play for a while, oh, let's ...... for a while"
She held out her finger and gestured to one.
The young man who came over with the medicine box was amused by her cute little appearance: "What a cute little girl, I really want to steal it home and raise it!" ”
Fuguang glanced at him: "George, you dare to think!" ”
George disagreed: "People have to have some dreams. By the way, Your Majesty asked the ministers to come over, who is sick? ”
Fuguang sent a few children out to play, and pointed to Grandpa Sha: "You show him and see what kind of poison he has been poisoned." ”
Grandpa Sha nodded politely at George, George carefully looked at the other party's face, and his brows couldn't help frowning: "Uncle, your situation is very complicated!" ”
As he spoke, he opened the medicine box and began to fiddle with the tools.
Fuguang's heart sank slightly, although George was young, his medical skills were among the best in the Great Moon Country, and his reaction showed that Grandpa Sha's situation was not optimistic.
She couldn't help but look at the old man sitting straight in front of the window, the other party didn't react when he heard this, it seemed that he had already known or didn't care about life and death.
Fuguang involuntarily stepped forward, Grandpa Sha put down the knife, carefully smoothed the barb with his hands, and then handed her the freshly made bamboo dragonfly in his hand, and said with his mouth: "Take it and play." ”
For some reason, Fuguang's heart is inexplicably a little sour, as the Great Moon Monarch who has been pinned on him since he was a child, lip language is also a must-learn skill. She hesitated and reached out to take it.
Following An An's example, he rubbed his hands together and back and forth.
George walked over with the tools and looked at them in amazement: "I can't imagine that Your Majesty's cold appearance hides a child's heart!" ”
Fuguang glanced at him coldly: "Do your business." ”
After a cup of tea, George put away his tools, the look of his hippie smile faded, and he said with a solemn face:
"His situation is quite complicated, and now he can stand here well and can only say that his life is great. Not to mention the countless dark injuries he suffered in his early years, fortunately, his body is strong and different from ordinary people.
According to His Majesty, he was imprisoned for nearly twenty years, so long, his body was malnourished, and he was supported by willpower.
There are too many dark injuries on his body, even if he uses the best medicine, it is impossible to completely recuperate, especially on rainy days. ”
His words fell, but he saw that the old man, who had been calm from beginning to end, suddenly raised his head, and there was obvious surprise and disbelief in his eyes,
Fuguang actually understood his thoughts at this time: "Lord William said that he had asked for a doctor for his predecessor before, and the doctor said that his predecessor had a terminal illness and would not live for three years!" ”
That's why he was free, but he didn't leave Maya, because he knew he was a dying man.
George shook his head resolutely: "His situation is complicated, it is indeed very similar to a terminal illness, and it is easy for doctors who are not skilled to misdiagnose it.
However, the minister can guarantee that as long as he takes good care of his body from now on, he can barely live to the end of his life, but he will live a miserable life in his old age."
Fuguang breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, while Grandpa Sha was stunned, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time. When he looked at the floating light, his dead eyes had a hint of light.
George only thought that he suddenly learned that he was not terminally ill, and it was normal for patients to be overly emotional.
Fuguang asked, "Then what's the poison in his body?" ”
"This one...... Not a big problem. You are no stranger to this poisonous majesty, it is the green cherry blossom you were in before. ”
Fuguang frowned: "As far as I know, the poisonous effect of Qing Ying's is to seal the internal force of the martial artist, and he used the internal force when he fought before. ”
George explained: "That's probably because his physique is stronger than ordinary people, and he has fought against this poison for many years and dissolved part of it, but if he forcibly urges the internal force too much, it is easy to damage the heart,"
While speaking, she was ready to start dispensing medicine, because she had been poisoned by Fuguang before, and then she returned to China, although the poison had already been resolved, but just in case, George and other medical officers went to Daxia to study with Wu Taiyi for a long time, and George once sighed that Daxia Chinese medicine is broad and profound......
Therefore, for the antidote to the poison of green cherry blossoms, he is very familiar with it.
Fuguang asked Grandpa Sha: "The person who poisoned you and imprisoned you was not my third uncle John?" ”
Since he knew that he would not die in a short time, Grandpa Sha's whole person seemed to have a trace of vitality, and he nodded.
The expected answer, the floating light let him heal well and walked out,
This is actually not difficult to guess, the poison of Qingying comes from the Red Lotus Sect, and the traitor who judged the Red Lotus Sect later became a subordinate of the third uncle, and more importantly, after the fall of Casey and others, the hidden network was opened up little by little, and the former city lord of Maya City happened to be the third uncle's person.
So...... Why did the third uncle imprison Grandpa Sha?
Standing in the courtyard, the climate of Maya City is cold, and snow is common, although there is no snow today, but the rooftop treetops are still white.
She clenched her hand and found that she had been holding the bamboo dragonfly, and put it in front of her eyes for a while, then rubbed her hands vigorously, and as her hand was released, the bamboo dragonfly spun and flew.
She looked up and saw that the bamboo dragonfly had spun around for a while, slowing down, and finally fell onto a branch.
She jumped slightly, carefully took the bamboo dragonfly and continued to rotate, and she was quite engaged in playing for a while.
Feng Lisheng happened to pass by, and asked with a smile: "Is it fun?" ”
Seeing this scene by her own brother, Fuguang was rarely a little uncomfortable, and she caught the bamboo dragonfly casually: "... Feel free to play! ”
Feng Lisheng: "Since you want to play, let's go play with An An!" ”
Fuguang looked at him faintly: "After so many years, the eldest brother has really not changed at all," as always, a straight man.
Feng Lisheng didn't care: "But your sister-in-law likes it!" The calm was mixed with a show-off tone, and the floating light was very speechless.
Feng Lisheng stared at the bamboo dragonfly in her hand, thoughtful.
……
Now that he has found someone, Feng Lisheng decided to set off back to Great Xia tomorrow. At noon, William set up a sumptuous table to see off An An and An, and Anna also came.
The two children have been here for more than a month, and now they are really leaving, and they are a little reluctant.
An An gave Jon a lot of the toys she had taken from Floating Light to Jon:
"In the future, you should pay attention to running on the street, and remember to practice martial arts every day? When you grow up, you can come to the Great Xia Kingdom to play with us. ”
Jon nodded with red eyes: "When I become a big businessman and have my own cargo ship, I can go and play with you......"
The children said goodbye here, and on the other side, Feng Lisheng picked up his wine glass and thanked William for taking in the two children.
Fuguang said directly: "William, you saved two children at a critical moment, in order to thank you, you can make a request, as long as it is reasonable, I will agree." ”
When William heard this, he didn't say anything polite, "This is just what a minister should do...", but stood up and knelt down solemnly:
"I beg Your Majesty to pardon Anna."
Floating Light wasn't surprised that he would say, "Okay, just say that Anna saved me." You have good ability, perform well, and you can consider transferring to other places after three years. ”
After all, Anna's crime was sentenced by the laws of the imperial court, and it is impossible to directly exempt the person without an official explanation.
As a leader of grace and power, Fuguang clearly knows how to win over people's hearts.
Let people bring paper and pencils, write down the four characters "good couple Tiancheng" in Chinese characters, and write blessings in Dayue language.
William took it excitedly, and promised to be a good official, and at that moment, he couldn't wait to be a good official for His Majesty!
As soon as the banquet was over, he couldn't wait to take out the key and open the shackles that Anna had put on his wrist. The two of them hugged their heads excitedly and cried.
Not far away, An An stared at a large set of keys in William's hand, "It turns out that the keys to these prisoners are in Uncle William's hands!" ”
She asked curiously, "What would happen if Uncle William secretly opened Aunt Anna's shackles?" Will there be severe penalties? ”
"No, it counts as a cover-up, and according to the law, he should be removed from office.
However, the sky is high here, and it is too normal for a few prisoners to die, and there are too many factors that can be manipulated, even if William keeps Anna in the mansion, as long as no one reports it, it is not a big deal. ”
Jing Qi on the side listened thoughtfully, and did not ask stupid questions such as "Since this is the case, what is the use of the imperial court setting up laws...... etc. Because when the water is clear, there are no fish! Under the rules, it is impossible for everyone to obey them honestly, and the law is only a bottom line that binds people.
He concluded: "So Uncle William is a very upright man! ”
An An was a little puzzled: "Then why didn't he do it?" I feel that honest people are easy to lose. ”
Fuguang smiled: "Jing Qi is right, William is an upright and principled person, such a person may not be tactful enough, but he can withstand temptation,"
These things are simple to say, but very few people can do it.
An An looked at the two people who hugged each other excitedly:
"Anyway, I don't care, Uncle William is a good person, he and Anna have gone through so many setbacks and are finally going to be together, I hope they can be happy forever like the protagonist in the story."
Fuguang rubbed his head: "It will be." ”
Sometimes, however, the unexpected comes so suddenly.
In the evening, seeing that they were leaving tomorrow, Anna thanked William and took William to buy some local knick-knacks for the two children.
Finally able to marry the girl he wanted, William, who was eight feet tall, smiled like a fool,
Seeing a jewelry store opposite, the two were just about to walk in, when a servant came to report to William.
Anna didn't care, waved at the two of them, and walked across the road to the jewelry store opposite.
At this moment, a little boy of four or five years old accidentally fell in the middle of the road, but before he could stumble to his feet, a fast horse came at a great speed, and saw that the little boy was about to die under the horse's hooves.
Anna, who was closest to her, did not hesitate and subconsciously rushed over to pull the little boy away, but the speed of the horse was too fast.
In an instant, Anna was kicked out by the horse's hooves, and the blood stained her newly changed dress, and the horse was finally cured, and the owner of the horse knelt down with a white face.
William, however, couldn't hear anything at this point, and he tried Anna's weakening breathing as he felt like he was dying.
……
George withdrew his hand and shook his head apologetically, "It's too badly hurt." The patient is almost no longer breathing except for the pulse, which is commonly known as the living dead, you have to be mentally prepared that she will probably never wake up again, unless there is a miracle! ”
But how can there be so many miracles in this world?
William just silently held Anna's unconscious hand: "It's okay, as long as she lives for a day, I will accompany her for a day." ”
After helping William arrange the follow-up matters, the group, including Fuguang, boarded the official ship back to Great Xia.
It's supposed to be a happy journey, but the group is in a heavy mood, originally with a bright willow and a bright flower, Anna's sudden birth is inexplicably like a bad omen,
An An cried for a long time, it turned out that the words were all lies, and the male and female protagonists experienced many setbacks and may not be happy together, but ended in tragedy!
……
The official ship with the flag of the Great Moon Country drove unhurriedly on the sea, and unknowingly walked for more than half a month.
An An gradually forgot the sadness of Maya City, and went crazy on the deck with Jingqi.
Feng Lisheng couldn't stand it. With a straight face, let the two practice martial arts. An An knew that he couldn't hide, so he had to retreat and pester, which asked Grandpa Sha to supervise them.
There's no way, although her father loves her, but when it comes to dancing, he won't show mercy, and Grandpa Sha is different.
Feng Lisheng let her go, anyway, as long as she quietly doesn't run around like crazy.
At this time, Fuguang came over with a letter: "The queen mother and Sister Gillian came by boat from Qingzhou Port a month ago, and it is estimated that in another month, the two sides will be able to meet." ”
Although they were at sea, they had their own means of communication.
An An, who was practicing basic skills, couldn't help but say "wow" happily when she heard this. "Mother and grandmother are coming!"
Feng Lisheng grimaced: "Stand up." ”
An An stuck out her tongue, and her little face still couldn't hide her excitement.
Feng Lisheng noticed that Grandpa Sha, who was standing in the corner, suddenly stiffened when he heard An An say "grandmother".
He withdrew his gaze and said nothing.
After dinner, the group went back to the cabin to rest. Grandpa Sha took a bottle of spirits and went into the cabin. He took off his shirt and moved his arms, which were tightly glued to the chains.
After opening the lock two years ago, part of the chain was removed, and the other part was dragged over his shoulders, growing deep into the flesh.
He didn't care about it before, but now that he wants to see her, he has to clean up decently.
He drew a dagger, wiped it with spirits, and roasted it by the candle, then aimed it at the place where the chain was attached to the flesh.
Just as the dagger was about to fall, the arm was suddenly grasped.
Feng Lisheng put down the medicine bottle: "I'll come!" ”
Grandpa Sha just glanced at him and didn't refuse.
Feng Lisheng opened a medicine bottle: "This is hemp boiling powder, although the quality is a little worse, but the conditions are limited, you can bear with it." ”
Grandpa Sha shook his head and said it was okay. For people like them, enduring pain is fundamental.
Soon the numbness boiled and took effect, and Feng Lisheng went down the knife neatly, quickly stopped bleeding and bandaged,
Ma Boiling Powder could only be relieved, but apart from the physiological tightness of his muscles, he didn't even frown.
Just when the two phases sank, Feng Lisheng suddenly spoke:
"Senior, I met you, when I was in my martial age. I sneaked into the cold palace, and you gave me a bamboo dragonfly and asked me to give it to my mother. ”
Perhaps it was because of him that the mother concubine slowly regained her memory.
