Chapter 224: Madness
Yun Qiushui was still thinking about what had just happened, his eyes slowly lit up, he held his friend's arm in surprise, and said in a low voice: "Fifth princess...... Is it the fifth princess who was once married to a thousand nights?"
"Shhhhh......h ”
"Oh...... Oh. Yun Qiushui sighed embarrassedly, she had heard about resisting the decree and refusing to marry, and even after this matter reached Kunlun, her daughter Yunxiao was secretly happy for a long time, if she hadn't been stopped by herself, I was afraid that she would have run over to find Xiao Qianye at that time, thinking of this, Yun Qiushui still had some pimples in her heart, and then remembered the crazy appearance of the fifth princess before, and said uneasily, "Why is she crazy......?" It can't be for this, is it?"
Mrs. Ming Qi held her chin and was also puzzled, and said with words: "I don't know, it has been normal before, but a month ago I suddenly became startled, and I always said that there were insects in my room that bit her, and the people in the family moved all the things in the room out for her, and there was only one bed left, so it didn't work, she said that there were insects on the bed, and she would rather sleep on the ground than cover the quilt." ”
"Bugs?" Yun Qiushui chuckled in his heart, remembering the eldest princess Mingyu on the poisonous insect seat, and hurriedly asked, "And then, is there really a bug?"
"No, it's all empty, how can there be any insects?" Mrs. Ming Qi spread out her hands, and she also looked helpless, frowning, "I went to see her a month ago, and the servants are carefully inspecting every corner of the house every day, and they really don't let go of an ant, but she still locks herself in the room and no one is allowed to get close, even the doctor of Danzhen Palace was kicked out by her, at that time she was not as sick as she is now, but she was in a trance every day, muttering in her mouth, and she didn't know what she was talking to." ”
Yun Qiushui clenched his fists silently, and was also thinking about whether the strange behavior of the fifth princess would have anything to do with the eldest princess on the top of the star-picking building.
Mrs. Ming Qi didn't notice her reaction, shook her head, sighed, took her arm and walked to the backyard together, and said as she walked: "She suddenly deteriorated half a month ago, and from time to time she would run out of the princess's mansion, grabbing people everywhere and shouting for help, it is also strange to say, Ming Shu has not learned martial arts, and there are many guards in the mansion watching, but she can successfully escape every time." ”
"Where does she usually go when she escapes?" Yun Qiushui asked inexplicably, this time she really asked Mrs. Ming Qi, she thought about it and said, "At the beginning, I always liked to run to Xingluo Lake, and I jumped into the lake in the winter, but I didn't go to jump into the lake these days, and I shouted for help when I caught someone near the outer city, and I grabbed and bitten, kicked and kicked, fortunately, she was a princess, otherwise she would have been beaten to death." ”
"Xingluo Lake...... Yun Qiushui thought seriously, his eyes shining brightly, "Is it the Xingluo Lake that binds the King's Water Prison?"
"That's where she used to go boating. Mrs. Ming Qi answered casually, but Yun Qiushui already understood something, the weird insect control technique of the eldest princess Mingyu came from the southern Xinjiang of the Central Plains, if it was just according to the understanding of ordinary people, the situation of the fifth princess was regarded as "crazy", and the ordinary doctor was invited to treat it, it would definitely have no effect, and even the more serious it was, thinking of this, Yun Qiushui paused and seriously pulled his friend, "This may not be ordinary madness, go find some warlocks who know how to control insects, and maybe you can save her." ”
Mrs. Ming Qi suddenly showed an expression of wanting to speak and stopped, seeing her embarrassment, Yun Qiushui chuckled in her heart, and lowered her voice: "Can't you?" I remember that the emperor has three pavilions and two palaces, one of which is the Star Sacrifice Palace, since the Danzhen Palace can send a doctor to see her, why can't the Star Sacrifice Palace send a warlock over?"
"Shhhhh......h ”
"How so?"
"I don't know, when Mingxi was still the crown prince, she obviously had a good relationship with her, but at that time, she was injured and forced to amputate her legs, and Mingxi was staring at it personally. Mrs. Mingqi sighed, if it was an ordinary family, Mingxi and Mingshu were her relatives, and she, as an aunt, should take on the responsibility of elders, but they were in the royal family, if there was any conflict in the context of this relationship, it would not be something that a person of her own status could easily intervene to solve.
Yun Qiushui wanted to ask something more, but Mrs. Ming Qi glared at her, and scolded angrily: "Okay, okay, let you leave it alone, I can't interfere in my own family affairs, so don't worry about it." ”
Yun Qiushui was speechless by her words, so she had to stick out her tongue in embarrassment, and didn't ask anything more, Mrs. Ming Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and the two walked into the backyard hand in hand, Ye Xue had already woken up, she wore a beautiful feather weaving coat, and when she saw her mother and Mrs. Qiushui coming back at the same time, she hurriedly ran over, grabbed one person with one hand, and said delicately: "Mother, you are back, Brother Yan came to see me, and brought me delicious snacks, you can also taste it together." ”
Mrs. Ming Qi noticed that there was still a person sitting in the pavilion in the backyard, and Gongsun Yan saw them standing up politely and bowed his head slightly.
Although Mrs. Ming Qi was still smiling on her face, her heart was inexplicably tight, and she felt invisible nervousness in the face of a junior, she touched her daughter's head, patted the snow beads on her shoulder, and said, "Go, go to your brother to play, my mother and Yan'er still have something to say." "101 Chinese Net
"My brother has gone to the military pavilion, how can I play with him!" Ye Xue pouted, although she is over twenty years old, she has been asleep for several years due to narcolepsy, and now she still looks like a willful little girl, Mrs. Ming Qi has no choice but to coax: "Obedient, Yan'er is here to discuss marriage, you are not ashamed, do you want to listen to it next to you?"
"Marriage, marriage, ......" Ye Xue heard these two words, her cheeks immediately turned crimson, burned all the way to the root of her ears, and she quickly rubbed her face with her hands, and said hesitantly, "Oh...... Then I'll avoid it for a while, you have set a date, but you have to tell me. ”
"Let's go. Mrs. Ming Qi had to be helplessly coaxed, Ye Xue tiptoed and hummed a little song and happily ran back to the room, at this time Gongsun Yan walked down from the pavilion, bowed his hands politely to the two, and said politely, "Aunt Seventh came to me this time, presumably not to discuss marriage, right?"
"Uh...... Ahem, Yan'er, you sit first. Mrs. Ming Qi coughed embarrassedly, she knew that Gongsun Yan was now in full swing, compared to her, the mistress of the Ye family, no matter how much higher the power position was, even if he still regarded himself as a junior in front of him, but she didn't dare to really offend this person, Gongsun Yan also made a gesture of please, and the three of them sat in the pavilion together, not knowing how to break the deadlock for a while.
"That, Yan'er, I know that the person you like in your heart is not Ah Xue. After a long time, Mrs. Mingqi, who was finally outspoken, couldn't bear this embarrassing silence, she took the lead in speaking, and didn't go around the bend with the other party, "Although I don't know what you did, but Ah Xue's illness this time is really a bit weird, and now her condition is just getting better, and I don't know when it will recur again, and it's not a way to drag you all the time, I think about it, I still have to discuss with you, marriage...... Or forget it. ”
Gongsun Yan smiled faintly, unable to see the slightest change in mood, and asked knowingly: "The marriage was decided by my father and Master Ye back then, why didn't my aunt talk to my mother directly, but came to me?"
"After all, it's your life's work. Mrs. Ming Qi laughed with a good voice, but her fingers unconsciously tightened the cuffs, "You are young and promising, this imperial capital, and even the whole territory of Feiyuan, I don't know how many girls from good families want to tie the knot, Ah Xue's sick appearance, even I, a mother, feel that she is not worthy of you......"
"Auntie is polite. Gongsun Yan interrupted her quietly, and knew that this kind of thing could not be said too directly, his mind turned, and countless thoughts flashed in an instant, but he still directly handed over the decision to Mrs. Ming Qi, and said lightly, "I was also dismissed and investigated for some things before, although I was pardoned for saving Emperor Tianzun by luck, but after all, I left some bad records, speaking of unworthiness, it should be that I am not worthy of Miss Ye, since my aunt has spoken, I can't shirk it, if it is inconvenient for Aunt Seventh to say it in person, let me convey it on my behalf." ”
"Uh-huh, excuse me. Mrs. Mingqi's smile was already very stiff, she nervously took a snack and stuffed it into her mouth, and choked on swallowing too quickly, and coughed hard.
Yun Qiushui patted her friend's back, feeling her body trembling slightly.
"Aunt Seven, is there anything else to find me?" Gongsun Yan breathed a sigh of relief as she wished, glanced at Yun Qiushui, Mrs. Ming Qi finally eased up, and when she heard him ask so directly, her heart tightened, and she hesitated for a while, and finally lowered her voice and said, " Yan'er, this is Yun Qiushui, the master of Kunlun's big peak, you have seen it before, she is Yun Xiao's mother, now Yun Xiao's whereabouts are unknown, if she is with Qianye, I am afraid that she will be hunted down, they are all mothers, I naturally understand this feeling of worry and fear, can you do my aunt a favor......"
"Looking for Yunxiao?" Gongsun Yan didn't wait for her to finish speaking, he already knew what the other party meant, his left hand clenched silently in his sleeve, a faint green light wandered in his fingertips, after a while, Gongsun Yan already knew what happened on the Star Picking Tower a moment ago, he smiled casually, and continued, " There is no problem with helping, but I see that Mrs. Yun's face is not good, it seems that she has an old illness, so it is better to stay here with Aunt Seven to rest, as for Miss Yun's whereabouts, when I find it, I will naturally inform Prince Tianche and let him find it on my behalf, how about it?"
Before Mrs. Ming Qi could react, Yun Qiushui had already immediately understood what the other party meant, and was secretly frightened by this quiet means of contact.
"But ......" Mrs. Ming Qi glanced at Yun Qiushui worriedly, and without waiting for her to speak again, Yun Qiushui nodded with a smile, stood up and bowed to Gongsun Yan, "Then thank you Gongzi, Che'er lives in the Qin Tower in the outer city, and I will go to him in a while." ”
"Qin Lou, then I'll go over faster. Gongsun Yan showed an approving gaze, and Mrs. Ming Qi looked strange and didn't want to interject.
The three of them had their own thoughts, and at this moment, there was a sudden slight tremor under their feet, from far to near, from deep to shallow, becoming more and more obvious.
Mrs. Ming Qi was so shaken that she couldn't stand steadily, so she could only hug the pillar in the pavilion, looked at her feet in surprise, and shouted: "Earth, earthquake?"
Gongsun Yan sat as steady as a rock and did not move, but his eyes became sharp in an instant, and he looked up at the distant sky with a stern face - it was not an earthquake, this kind of noise came from the far east, and it was the seal that began to be destroyed!
