Chapter 327, Unrequited Love
The Life-Extending Heart Pill was really effective, and Du Ruo's injuries stabilized, although they did not improve, they did not worsen. Tang Jiusheng relieved his heart and waited for Brother Xin's arrival with peace of mind.
Two days later, Xin Zhiping rode a unicorn horse, and rushed to Jixian County to see Tang Jiusheng.
Wu Yuanzhi thought to himself, my little magistrate doesn't know what virtue he has accumulated in his previous life, in a few days, he first ushered in the prince, and then ushered in the horse, like me, a seven-grade petty official, it stands to reason that I will never see such a big leader in my life, so Wuzhi County treats Xin Zhiping very attentively.
Xin Zhiping saw Tang Jiusheng's letter to Shui Ruyue, and knew that Wuzhi County took people to Wanhua Valley to save Tang Jiusheng, so he was also very polite to Wuzhi County. At this time, the subordinates had already informed Tang Jiusheng of the news of the arrival of the horse master, and Tang Jiusheng also rushed out to greet Xin Zhiping. Xin Zhiping handed over the unicorn to the groom of the county government, followed Tang Jiusheng into the back house of the county government, and listened to Tang Jiusheng tell about Du Ruo's injury as he walked.
Coming to Du Ruo and Tang Jiusheng's bedroom, Xin Zhiping sat at the head of the bed and gave Du Ruo a pulse, and after the pulse, he asked for the poisonous crossbow arrow. Xin Zhiping carefully wrapped the arrow in a cloth, looked at it over and over in the sun, and soaked a little venom with water, then took out a small cyan porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out some white potion, and mixed it with the venom, and the venom immediately turned over and over like boiling, and black bubbles bubbled, which was very scary.
Xin Zhiping shook his head, "Brother, this poison comes from Great Xia, it is a poisonous weed on the Gobi, called Heart-Eating Flower, I don't have an antidote and can't match the antidote, the Minglong Shuangzhu on my body can suck out a part of the poison, but it can't break the root, this antidote, our Dashang Kingdom may only have two or three people who can prepare it, one is a strange monk, the other is Zhang Congyi of Minglong Mountain, the Taoist name Danyangzi, is the one who refined the muscle-building Huiyan Dan for Wanyu!"
Tang Jiusheng nodded and said, "Brother Xin, then please use the Minglong Double Bead to suck out some of the poison on Du Ruo's sister, so that she can be a little better!"
Xin Zhiping said with a smile: "That's nature!" and pulled Tang Jiusheng outside the house, and whispered: "Brother, this heart-eating flower is extremely toxic, first blinding people, and then gradually rotting various organs, and finally making people rot their hearts!
Tang Jiusheng nodded and said, "Thank you Brother Xin for informing me, I have already decided to marry Sister Du Ruo home!"
Xin Zhiping patted Tang Jiusheng on the shoulder and handed Shui Ruyue's reply to Tang Jiusheng. Xin Zhiping sat on the edge of the bed, took out the Minglong Double Beads, let Du Ruo lie flat on the bed, and put the Double Beads on Du Ruo's lower abdomen through the clothes, Xin Zhiping and Tang Jiusheng left and right, both pressed the Hegu acupoint in Du Ruo's hand, and cooperated with the Minglong Double Bead with internal force to force out the poison in Du Ruo's body.
After half a cup of tea, Miss Du Ruo vomited out a lot of colorful things, and some black blood flowed from the wound. Xin Zhiping let out a sigh of relief and said: "This poison has been forced out at least sixty percent, and the rest has penetrated deep into the viscera, and it is no longer possible to drive out the Minglong Double Bead, if it is just poisoned, it can drive out ninety percent." But this poison, not to mention a few percent, is half a percent, and it can also kill people!"
Tang Jiusheng nodded, "Brother Xin, then I have to quickly pack up my things and go find the strange monk." As he spoke, Tang Jiusheng carefully used a cloth to handle Du
If the poison on the girl's wound is wiped off, and the toxicity is violent, Tang Jiusheng must also be careful not to get it, and if it is touched, it will also be poisoned.
Xin Zhiping smiled distressedly, "I'm ashamed, I'm not good at learning, and there are some poisons that are too out of the way, even if I recognize them, I can't solve them." The strange monk is uncertain and difficult to find, and my master doesn't want to meddle with the affairs of the world, as for Zhang Congyi, he is a little farther away. Alas, it's really hard!"
Tang Jiusheng said with a smile: "I now know where the weird master is, I heard that he is in Yunmeng Mountain Qixia Valley, so I just take Sister Du Ruo to find him!"
Xin Zhiping was overjoyed, and then turned happy and worried, "This eccentric monk has a really strange temper and is not easy to get along with, I'm afraid that if he doesn't want to care, it will be troublesome!"
Tang Jiusheng smiled and said, "There is no way, the medicinal effect of the Life-Extending Heart Protection Pill can only last for about a month, and you can't sit idly by and watch Sister Du Ruo...... No matter how weird his temper is, as long as he can heal this poisonous wound, then I have to go to him, I'm not a big traitor, and my reputation in the rivers and lakes is not bad, and the weird master won't turn me away, right?"
Xin Zhiping shook his head, "It's hard to say, brother, the reason why he is called an eccentric monk is because he has a strange temperament and doesn't talk about feelings, and even if my master goes, he may not be able to give face, so it's not easy to do." Don't get your hopes up too much, lest the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. You go to him first, if he refuses to save him, you can go to Minglong Mountain to find Zhang Congyi!"
Tang Jiusheng nodded, only then did he open Shui Ruyue's letter, and at a glance, he was full of anger, it turned out that Shui Ruyue and Ximen Yushuang entered the palace to see the eldest princess of Qingchuan a few days ago, and Emperor Yin Guang was also present at the time, as soon as he saw Shui Ruyue, he was simply fascinated by Shui Ruyue's appearance, and ran to Princess Qingchuan's mansion when he had nothing to do, and he wanted to see Shui Ruyue.
But Shui Ruyue and Ximen Yushuang can't always go to see Princess Qingchuan, and they usually live in the National Teacher's Mansion. Yin Guang knew that the two of them lived in the National Teacher's Mansion, so he ran to the National Teacher's Mansion if he had nothing to do, and ran several times one after another, in fact, he just wanted to see Shui Ruyue.
One day, Yin Guang went to the National Teacher's Mansion again, Tang Jiusheng's eldest brother Tang Jiude came out to receive him, and after chatting for a while, Yin Guang asked Tang Jiude to be busy with his own affairs and not have to accompany him. He took Yu Fu around the National Teacher's Mansion. Yin Guang came to the back garden, and after seeing Shui Ruyue, he excused himself that his chest was not very comfortable, and he wanted Shui Ruyue to help him take a look, Shui Ruyue was furious when he heard this, "You don't want your wife to look at your chest if you are uncomfortable, what are you looking for me?"
Shui Ruyue didn't care about the dignity of the emperor at all, and reprimanded Yin Guang with a cold face, Yin Guang could only take Yu Fu away in a gray manner, and when he went back, he got lovesick and was bedridden in the Yangshen Pavilion for several days. Princess Qingchuan and Xin Zhiping went to the palace to visit, Yin Guangcai told his aunt what was on his mind, he hadn't seen the woman he liked all these years, and after seeing Shui Ruyue, he was so excited that he didn't know what to do.
Xin Zhiping persuaded: "Your Majesty, Shui Ruyue is Tang Jiusheng's fiancée, Your Majesty's wife is the wife of a minister, what kind of system does it become? If the king is not benevolent, the ministers do not have to be loyal, the father is not merciful, why should the son be filial? The country is now in danger, and it is necessary for loyal ministers and good generals to work together to calm down the scourge of the vassal kings, and Your Majesty must not destroy the Great Wall by itself and push Tang Jiusheng to the enemy's side!"
Yin Guang sighed and said: "Uncle, I understand the truth! I actually understand everything in my heart, that is, I am trapped by love and need someone to wake up!"
Xin Zhiping said with a smile: "If Lang has a concubine who is interested, the minister really doesn't dare to stop you, the problem Your Majesty, you are shaving your head."
Pick a hot head, you don't think about it, Shui Ruyue dares to ignore your identity as an emperor and let your wife show you that your chest is uncomfortable, that is, you understand Your Majesty's intentions and reject you directly. I think you'll accept it! Wishful thinking can never work!"
While the three of them were talking, Queen Chu Fengying came. It turned out that Chu Fengying heard the little palace maid say that the emperor was jealous because Tang Jiusheng's fiancée had lovesickness, and ran to the Yangshen Pavilion to make a fuss, threatening to drive the goblin surnamed Shui out of the capital, and scolded the daughter of a prisoner and the broken shoes that seduced the emperor.
Yin Guang was furious, asked people to close the palace door, got up from the bed, and scolded Chu Fengying, what have been married for a few years, I have never had sex with you, what are you doing to make trouble?
Yin Guang scolded and scolded, cried, and sobbed sadly: "I am the son of heaven, and I am optimistic about a people's daughter, but she is a famous flower and a master! The bigger problem is that people don't love power, and they don't take me seriously at all, I think that my appearance is no worse than Tang Jiusheng, but in the eyes of other people's water girls, it is not worth mentioning at all! I am rich in the world, but I am not as important as Tang Jiusheng in her heart, I am really sad!"
Xin Zhiping sat on the side, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh. Chu Fengying was scolded by Yin Guang, and she also regretted that she was reckless, and came over to persuade Yin Guang again, saying that as a queen, she had lost her mother's etiquette, and asked Your Majesty to forgive her sins. Yin Guang is not the kind of faint gentleman, borrowing the slope to get off the donkey, and talking to each other about confidants, which eases the atmosphere.
After Shui Ruyue and Ximen Yushuang knew about this, they didn't want to have much trouble in the capital, so they were ready to take Yulong Xingkong, the Su family's father and daughter, the little girl Zu Qingqiu, Song Yulan and others, plus Cheng Zifei who Tang Jiusheng received in Bao'en Temple, and Shen Xiaoyu and others from Luoyu Pavilion to go south, preparing to go to the Jiangnan Provincial National Teacher's Mansion first, and then transfer to the Jiannan Dao fiefdom. Only the double knife cold red apricot was left to Yin Guang.
Although Leng Hongxing is just a middle-aged person, Yin Guang likes her very much, after this period of time, Leng Hongxing also understands that she is wishful thinking for Tang Jiusheng, and her heart is light, and she stays by Yin Guang's side with peace of mind. Look at Yin Guang's meaning, Leng Hongxing is still expected to enter the palace as a concubine in the future.
The strangest thing is the Falling Rain Pavilion, although he had agreed with Tang Jiusheng before, after the Great Xia Swordsman Mission left, he would send someone to talk about the exchange for Shen Xiaoyu, but he never sent anyone to disturb the Tang family of the National Teacher's Mansion, and there was not a single ghost shadow, Shen Xiaoyu himself was inexplicable, and he was abandoned by the Falling Rain Pavilion and his father?
When everyone was about to leave, Sparrowhawk Xiaoqing flew first and brought Tang Jiusheng's letter, and everyone knew that Tang Jiusheng was in trouble in the Wanhua Valley of the Central Plains Road. The next day, Sparrowhawk Xiaobai also came, and brought another letter, saying that Du Ruo was poisoned and urgently needed to save the medicine, Xin Zhiping couldn't care about lingering with Princess Qingchuan, rode a unicorn, and went straight to Zhongyuan Road, Shui Ruyue wrote a reply letter to Tang Jiusheng, and asked Xin Zhiping to bring it to Tang Jiusheng.
Tang Jiu was angry, Yin Guang actually dared to tease my little junior sister, did he want to be beaten? Xin Zhiping persuaded: "Brother, my fair lady and gentleman are good, you know that the water girl is beautiful, and others are not blind, everyone understands this, you see that the water girl has a deep affection for you, and she doesn't even take the emperor in her eyes, isn't this a happy event? If the emperor likes the girl who is greedy for power, then you have to empathize and don't fall in love? You have a good wife in the family, congratulations!"
When Tang Jiusheng heard Xin Zhiping say this, his anger subsided slightly, but he made up his mind, he must beat the emperor when he has the opportunity, and the emperor will be amazing?
