Xiao Yan came to the palace again the next day, and when he rushed to Zhuyuan, he found that Mei Xue was not there, so he ran to the pharmacy again.

Mei Xue was dispensing medicine in front of the window, and the table was full of bottles and cans.

Hearing movement at the door, Mei Xue glanced back at Xiao Yan and didn't speak, only pointed to a round chair next to her.

Xiao Yan scurried over and sat down, and said to Mei Xue with a smile:

"Miss Mei, I came to thank you.

I went back yesterday to investigate and found that the water in this Pang Mansion is really deep. ”

Mei Xue still didn't speak, only glanced at Xiao Yan and motioned for him to continue.

Xiao Yan rubbed his nose, snorted and said:

"Although Pang Wenxun was born in the imperial examination, he committed a crime when he was a magistrate, and later he was able to enter Dali Temple as a Beijing official, which was the force of Lu Wangfu.

If you hadn't reminded me, I would have been in it this time. ”

Mei Xue smiled and said:

"I don't know any of that, it's just a coincidence."

Xiao Yan still said a basket of words of thanks, and saw that Mei Xue actually made the splint by herself after dispensing the medicine, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help, and persuaded Mei Xue again:

"Miss Mei, this kind of hard work, you can just find a doctor to do it, and then you can go to the pharmacy outside to buy a pair!"

Mei Xue shook her head, carefully measured the size of the plank, and said:

"Lord Han's leg injury is very serious, and only me and Chen Yiling know his condition. Chen Yiling was busy taking care of him, so I would do this splint well. ”

Xiao Yan sighed again:

"Although Han Yu is quite unlucky, he is also lucky to meet you and Shen Qingyang to help him so hard."

Mei Xue didn't want to talk too much about Han Yu, for fear of arousing Xiao Yan's speculation, so she just smiled and didn't answer again.

At night, Mei Gang, Gao Yuan, and Peng Liang escorted Mei Xue to the house.

An Jiang was already waiting for Mei Xue, and behind him stood a small chamberlain who was about the same size, fat and thin as Mei Xue.

Mei Xue and An Jiang saluted, and An Jiang pointed to the little chamberlain and said to Mei Xue:

"In the palace, there are not many people who can serve His Majesty's pen and ink well. This child's name is Qingyun, he has grown up with me since he was a child, he knows a lot of words, he has read a few books, and he has been serving in the imperial front for several years. ”

Qingyun walked up to Mei Xue and saluted her, always lowering her eyebrows, very obedient and obedient.

An Jiang laughed sneeringly and said:

"Concubine Shu is now a favorite, not only can't see the old slave serving in front of His Majesty, but even the children brought up by the old slave can't be tolerated.

No, a few days ago, Qingyun was punished by her for finding an excuse, and now it is Concubine Shu's henchman Dongfu who is serving His Majesty's pen and ink. ”

Mei Xue listened to An Jiang while looking at Qingyun seriously, and finally asked Qingyun to stretch out her hand and put it under the lamp for her to look at it carefully for a while.

When he saw Mei Xue nodding, An Jiang asked Qingyun to go to the wing room to rest first, and then said to Mei Xue:

"When Miss Mei can enter the palace, just let people inform the old slave, and the old slave will arrange it when the time comes, so that Dongfu can rest for a few days if he suffers from a small illness."

Mei Xue nodded in response, and checked An Jiang's pulse again. When he left, An Jiang had to send her, and when he walked into the courtyard, Mei Xue whispered to persuade him:

"Eunuch, I can see that you didn't take the medicine I prescribed to you on time, so you should take care of your body."

An Jiang smiled bitterly, shook his head slightly, looked up at Gu Yue who was hanging in the night sky, and said:

"Your Majesty's time is short, and the old slave has lived enough, why bother to drink those bitter medicine soups again?"

Mei Xue was sad, and said goodbye to An Jiang and left.

When the human heart is dead, no amount of persuasion is in vain.

And Han Yu, his situation is even worse than An Jiang.

Mei Xue went back to the Han house on Yulan Street the next day, and what she saw was Chen Yiling's increasingly sad face.

Han Yu didn't say a word from beginning to end, forcibly fed him food, and only drank a few mouthfuls of soup, then stared at the roof in a daze.

"If you continue like this, let alone take care of your body and heal your leg injury, even this life will have to be taken sooner or later."

Chen Yiling was worried, Mei Xue sighed, and asked Chen Yiling to rest for a while, she wanted to go and say a few words to Han Yu alone.

Even with deep-set eye sockets and a sallow complexion, the young man in front of him is still remarkable.

Mei Xue sat down on the edge of the bed and looked at Han Yu in silence for a while before saying:

"There are some things I have to tell you.

First, Li Jinzhi, the prince of the King of Shu, has already begged His Royal Highness the Prince, and His Royal Highness has also promised, as long as you don't want to expose those people, then this matter will end here, and no one will mention it again in the future.

Second, your parents are already on their way to Beijing, and they don't know your current situation, and they just set off after receiving the news that you have won the top prize.

So, it's up to you whether you want them to see you as you are, or take good care of your body and wait for me to reconnect your legs to meet them.

And what I can do for you are two things.

First, I will try my best to heal your leg injury and try to keep your walk unaffected in the future.

Second, I will remove for you those who have hurt you, without affecting your reputation. ”

After Mei Xue finished speaking concisely, there was no superfluous word.

She sat quietly and waited for Han Yu for a quarter of an hour, and when she saw that he was still unmoved, she sighed in her heart and got up to leave.

They all walked to the door of the bedroom, and finally heard Han Yu ask behind them:

"You and Shizi, as well as Lord Shen, why do you want to help me like this?"

There was a palpable choked sobbing in the young man's hoarse voice.

Mei Xue turned around and saw a tear in the corner of Han Yu's eye.

"Because not only are you innocent, you are also the new champion of my big promotion. Your safety involves the heart of Shilin, and even affects the stability of the court. ”

As Mei Xue spoke, she walked back to the bed and looked at Han Yu and said:

"Many people say that it is better to die than to live, but I know that now you need more courage than death if you want to live.

I haven't experienced your suffering, so I don't feel qualified to persuade you to live.

I just want you to give yourself a chance, and give your parents a chance.

If you can keep your legs from falling disabled, if I can really wipe out those scum and save your reputation.

At that time, if you are still in pain and feel that life is worse than death, I will not advise you again, and I can even help you walk more comfortably. ”

Large tears slipped down the corners of Han Yu's eyes, and he finally moved his head, looked at Mei Xue and said:

"Miss Mei, thank you for understanding my feelings. But I just want to see one person right now, and I want you to help me. ”

Mei Xue nodded and motioned for Han Yu to speak.

But the name of the person Han Yu said made Mei Xue feel embarrassed.

The person Han Yu wanted to see was Zhao Qixia, the daughter of Zhao Baorong, the head of the Guozijian Bureau.

Mei Xue didn't know or even heard of Zhao Qixia, but for the Zhao family, Mei Xue knew something.

When Qiao Anran was able to sneak into the palace and contact Emperor Mingde, it was Zhao Baorong's wife, Mrs. Kong, who helped.

This was also found out by Song Zhijie afterwards, but Mei Xue didn't take it to heart.

But the girl who was raised in the boudoir asked her to bring someone to see Han Yu, which was obviously against the etiquette law.

What's more, Han Yu has been back for so many days, if Zhao Qixia has a heart for Han Yu, how can she not hear from her at all?

And Han Yu wanted to see Zhao Qixia, why didn't he ask his relatives for help, but asked her for help?

Everything can only explain one point: even if there is really love between Han Yu and Zhao Qixia, Han Yu loves more.

But Mei Xue thought about it and still promised Han Yu to say:

"Okay, I'll give you three days, if you can eat and rest according to Doctor Chen's instructions, I will go to see Miss Zhao for you and ask her to come and visit you.

Otherwise, I will never do it for you. ”

Han Yu was in tears, but she still choked up and nodded.

Mei Xue actually understands Han Yu's mood very well, when she was young, people always valued love above everything, even if such love often ended in failure.

Even a talent like Han Yu can't get rid of a love word.

When she got out of the house, Mei Xue asked her subordinates to prepare a meal for Han Yu immediately.

Chen Yiling personally watched Han Yu's meal, and when he finally came out of the bedroom and nodded to Mei Xue, Mei Xue breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to go back to the palace.

There is not much time, and the things requested by the crown prince Li Jinyu cannot be delayed, and Mei Xue eagerly hopes to be able to re-connect Han Yu as soon as possible.

But at the gate of the courtyard, he met the lord of Changle who was galloping on a horse.

The lord of Changle got off his horse and said to Mei Xue:

"Shen Qingyang is busy with the affairs of Yulin Weili, I'll take a look at Han Yu's situation for him."

Mei Xue nodded, but the county lord of Changle suddenly looked solemn and said:

"Mei Xue, thank you."

She rarely has such a serious time, Mei Xue is really a little unaccustomed, but she can probably guess what it is for.

Sure enough, the county lord of Changle lowered his head and pulled the horsewhip, hesitated for a while and said to Mei Xue:

"You're right, I don't care about him now, I don't nag him, he doesn't bother me so much.

I went to Yulinwei just now, and when I saw that he was busy, I said that I would come to see Han Yu for him, and he also said thank you to me. ”

Mei Xue smiled, shook the hand of the county lord of Changle and said:

"That's good, Lord Shen is a measured person, and he only drinks too much once in a while, but he will never delay his business.

You stay with him and mention it when he's in a good mood. ”

The county lord of Changle let out a "hmm", and watched Mei Xue get into the carriage and walk away before she turned around and walked into the courtyard.
