One hundred and forty-two, the secret of the mask

Nangong Yulu followed the little maid and came to the courtyard of Nalan Zhishui. She didn't speak all the way, and when she saw Nalan Zhishui, she couldn't suppress her emotions anymore, ran up quickly, crashed into Nalan Zhishui's arms and cried.

Zhishui was very surprised to see her like this, she touched the back of the rain heron, and whispered, "What's wrong with the heron......?"

"I ...... I don't know what to do......" Nangong Yulu leaned against her chest, and the words that came out were mushy.

Nalan Zhishui asked Alai and the maids to heat up a hot dish, and there were only two of them in the courtyard. Nalan Zhishui said, "What's the matter, let's hear it." ”

"In the afternoon, the bronze little brother was corporal punishment by Uncle Xie, and then ...... And let me take care of him......" Nangong Yulu whispered.

"Yes, I heard. ”

"Just now, he seems to ...... It seems like...... ...... me"

"Isn't that good...... You weren't very nice to him before. Every time, he has to pull me and Brother Yazhi to play in the palace together, isn't it just to find him. Nalan Zhishui looked at what Nangong Yulu wanted to say, and laughed: "It's just that he is a little different from other little brothers, are you struggling with this?"

Nangong Yulu raised her head and looked at Nalan Zhishui in surprise: "Sister, when did you know?"

"He follows Yun Xi every day, and we see each other almost every day, so we found out a long time ago. Nalan Zhishui said with a smile.

"I ...... But I... has already promised Zi Xiao......"

"Are you 'private' for life?" Nalan Zhishui leaned over and said in a super small voice. When Nangong Yulu heard her say this, she couldn't help but blush, and she said embarrassedly: "No, I just agreed to go with him to find the cause of my aunt's death, but I was sent back halfway......"

"That's right. Are you all just friends?"

Nangong Yulu nodded. At this time, Alai put the dishes on the table again. Nalan Zhishui hurriedly said: "Let's eat something first, I heard that you have been in school for a day, and you must be hungry." ”

"En......" Nangong Yulu picked up the chopsticks: "He also gave me a very expensive gift, and I didn't accept it...... If he accidentally fell to the ground, would he be very uncomfortable......" After speaking, he sighed and put down his chopsticks: "I don't know what to do......"

"It seems that you care about him very much, but you care about Wen Gongzi very much, so it's hard to choose, right?"

"I ...... I used to like him, but when he became Yun Xi's brother's hidden spirit guard, all changed...... The original familiarity has become unfamiliar. The appearance of Zixiao in the back...... Let me...... They have similar backgrounds, and their mothers were both driven away......"

"You connected Wen Gongzi to Bronze, didn't you?"

"Well, the first time I saw Zi Xiao was in the ice cellar of Qiongyu Pavilion, he was half-kneeling beside his mother's body, and that look was exactly the same as when the bronze mother died. Later, when the case progressed, he may have been an illegitimate child, and the figure of him sitting alone in the hospital made me worried. ”

"The first time Zi Xiao went to the medical hall, it was the plan to fake his death that made him out of sight in the Zhongwang Mansion. He was brought to me, and the scars on his body were shocking. And once bronze was sent to the hospital like this...... I also know that he is Yun Xi's brother's bodyguard, and there is nothing else in his heart except orders. I thought it might be impossible anymore, so I gave up ......."

"Lulu already has the answer in her heart. Why can't you put it down?"

"I ...... I ......"

"Gongzi Wen is actually more suitable for you than bronze, his mother is his grandfather's apprentice. His father is a prince, and now the medical hall is kind to King Zhong, so he attaches more importance to you. The last time I saw him, Mr. Wen had no shelves and was a very interesting person. I seem to like Wen Gongzi more. Nalan Zhishui's words made Nangong Yulu's heart a little firm.

"Do I have it?" Nangong Yulu was a little embarrassed.

"Yes, when you say bronze, it's the attitude of friends, and you always get along politely. But you are different from Wen Gongzi, every time you mention him, you will be shy and twist. You're both happy to get along, aren't you?" Nalan Zhishui served her a bowl of soup.

"That's it......" Nangong Yulu took a sip of the soup she handed over.

"Unless one day Bronze is free, he is no longer a Hidden Guard. Even if he is free, he will not propose it to you, his personality is like that of Brother Yazhi, he is the kind of person who only holds things in his stomach......"

"Sister, were you so entangled between Cousin Yazhi and Brother Yun Xi at that time?" Nangong Yulu said a word and asked her. It took a long time for Nalan Zhishui to say a word: "No, it's mainly me." ”

Nangong Yulu was curious, she felt that Zhishui's sentence was not what she asked: "Cousin Yazhi likes you very much." Every time you do something, you have to ask me what I do, and I envy it to death. I thought you were going back to get married, but I didn't expect to kill a 'dark horse' from it, and my sister was finally married by Yun Xi's brother...... Tut-tut......"

When Nalan Zhishui heard her say this, she was stunned. Nangong Yulu's mood seemed to be much more cheerful, and now he began to wonder what he was doing, and then asked, "Brother Xu Yi also cares about me very much...... Yazhi he ......"

Nangong Yulu walked up to her and interrupted what she said: "No, no, Brother Xu Yi is your brother." Cousin Yazhi, he is different from you, he has something unspeakable. It's the time when your uncle promised you and Yun Xi's brother's marriage, the last time you were in the hospital, you didn't see him drink the poison you made, and you couldn't think about it. Fortunately, his uncle appeared at that time and saved him. ”

Nalan Zhishui's eyes flashed with surprise, she looked at the dishes on the table, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: he would rather die than say that he liked it in person. Then she said, "Did Gongzi Wen tell you?"

"Yes, Yazhi fell down the stairs at that time, and it was Zi Xiao who protected him. I thought it was just a fall, but then Zixiao told me the truth. ”

Nalan Zhishui raised her eyes and looked at Nangong Yulu again, she saw Xie Yunxi who appeared behind Nangong Yulu, and couldn't help but be stunned. Did he hear all the things just now?

"Hey...... It's a pity. Oh, why doesn't anyone like me to cut myself~" Nangong Yulu looked envious, if Zixiao could ...... for her Hee-hee-hee...... began to think alone again, and he didn't notice Xie Yunxi not far behind him.

Nangong Yulu saw that Nalan Zhishui's eyes were affectionate, and she didn't care about her brain, only then did she look back, she immediately shouted, and then said in an aggrieved voice: "When did Brother Yun Xi come?"

"Don't talk about this yet, is my father-in-law in the courtyard?" Xie Yunxi asked Nalan Zhishui as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Uncle, they're at my house now. Nangong Yulu replied to him with some fear.

"Heron, go and see the bronze. Something happened to him, and he couldn't see it when it was too late. Xie Yunxi looked at Nangong Yulu's eyes and said.

"What?" Nangong Yulu changed back to a serious appearance, and immediately walked out of the courtyard.

"I'll go with you. Nalan Zhishui got up and followed. When she passed by Xie Yunxi's side, she raised her eyes and glanced at him.

Xie Yunxi let them go, he didn't respond to Nalan Zhishui's gaze, and he didn't look back until after leaving. Xie Yunxi frowned. He immediately found a horse and immediately left the palace, he galloped all the way, just wanting to find Nalan Rongque as soon as possible.

"Xiao Rongque, tell me...... Why are you doing this?" Nalan Lingyun was begging again.

"Uncle, I'm recovering well now, and there's nothing serious. Nalan Rongque took the Chinese medicine and drank it in one go.

"Hey... Can you tell me now...... Why did you marry Zhishui?"

"......" Nalan Rongque didn't reply to him, but said something else: "This 'healing with sound' is about to succeed, and my father's wish will come true soon." ”

"What a ...... you kid You're going to kill me. Your father's wish is about to be fulfilled, so what about your wish? Are you willing to marry Zhishui? If you are willing to give up, I will not be willing to ...... I feel sorry for my little granddaughter......"

Nangong Xiao on the side heard that Nalan Lingyun had been "crying", and scolded a lot: "Lingyun, shut up, your head is noisy......"

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and before Nalan Rongque could say to open the door, the door was pushed open with a "clang". The person who came in was Xie Yunxi, and the bangs on his forehead were blown down and scattered, and he didn't have time to care about it at all. I saw him walk quickly in front of Nalan Rongque, and knelt down with a "brush", he put his hands on the ground, and said in a desperate tone: "Father-in-law, please save Bronze, he has an accident." I know only you can save him......"

As soon as Nalan Lingyun heard that someone had made a move on his patient, he immediately stood up and chattered: "Who dares to touch my patient and doesn't want to live?"

When Nalan Rongque saw Xie Yun knowing this gift, he immediately helped him up. But Xie Yunxi refused to get up: "Please ask your father-in-law to save him, Bronze has been by my side since I was a child, and I also read and studied with me." As far as my father-in-law is concerned, he is also half of your student......"

"Okay, get up, and we'll go and see now. Nalan Rongque promised him, Xie Yunxi felt dizzy as soon as he got up, Nalan Rongque was quick and reached out to hug him. Xie Yunxi lost consciousness and fell into Nalan Rongque's arms.

Nalan Rongque sat down and hurriedly took his pulse.

Seeing this, Nalan Lingyun even had a hint ......of schadenfreude: "This big man will faint too?"

"Don't talk nonsense, be careful of losing your head. Nangong Xiao also stepped forward to check Xie Yunxi's condition. Then he took out a small red pill from the medicine cabinet and stuffed it into Xie Yunxi's mouth.

Xie Yunxi's head rested on Nalan Rongque's arms, feeling unprecedented warmth, he opened his eyes lightly, and saw Nalan Rongque's smile: "Yunxi, are you better?"

Nalan Rongque's gentleness made Xie Yunxi's eyes glow with tears, he was really envious, how good it would be if his father was so gentle: "I think you should have eaten something you shouldn't eat, and you didn't eat anything today, right?"

Xie Yunxi nodded: "Just eat some porridge in the morning......"

"No matter how strong your body is, you can't bear it. ”

Xie Yunxi grabbed Nalan Rongque's clothes and said with difficulty: "Leave me alone, bronze ......"

"Don't worry, I'll go now. Can you just stay in the medical hall for the time being?" Nalan Rongque's gentle attitude made Xie Yunxi feel warm in his heart.

"But I'll go back quickly......" Xie Yunxi said embarrassedly.

"Okay, okay, it's up to you. Nalan Rongque laughed.

"I'm going to see what kind of bastard is doing it, too. Nalan Lingyun said unhappily.

Nangong Xiao glanced at him, turned his back and went to pack up the medical book: "With the two of you, I won't go." It must have been my junior brother who asked the little prince to come to find someone...... If you're gone, I'll be clean here. ”

He felt that the light behind him lit up for a moment, Nangong Xiao immediately turned around and found that the three people in the house had disappeared, and he was the only one left in the room, and he couldn't help muttering: "It's really fast." ”

Xie Yunxi only felt a dazzling light in front of him, and when he opened his eyes, they actually appeared in front of the bronze room. Xie Yunxi was curious, he was still in the Qinghui Medical Center, why did he return home in the next second. Nalan Rongque helped Xie Yunxi up, he took Nangong Xiao's medicinal pill, and his body seemed to have recovered somewhat.

At this time, Yifeng opened the door with an iron face, and he raised his eyes to see that Xie Yunxi had returned with Nalan Rongque, and he immediately welcomed them into the house.

"It's weird...... Lulu, look at ......," Imperial Physician Liu stroked his beard, his face full of surprise. Seeing him say this, Nangong Yulu hurriedly went up to check. The black veins on the bronze neck gradually faded, but his pale hands gradually became bloodshot.

"According to common sense, he has already ascended to heaven, and there is still a faint pulse ......" Imperial Doctor Liu looked at him and couldn't understand.

At this time, Nalan Zhishui stood up and said excitedly: "Dad, you are here! You are about to see the state of bronze, how strange." ”

When Imperial Physician Liu saw that the people from the Nalan family were coming, he hurriedly sat down, and Nalan Rongque immediately sat beside Bronze. As soon as Nalan Lingyun entered the room, seeing the injuries on Bronze's body, he couldn't help but curse in front of everyone: "Which king's ruthless hand is this......"

Nalan Rongque patted him on the shoulder. Nalan Lingyun relented, and he held back his resentment. Although he didn't like the people of Liang Wangfu, since he agreed to treat this young man, he would be responsible for the safety of this young man's whole body and feet. Now the trauma on Bronze's body, fortunately, did not affect the face. Nalan Lingyun himself looked at the injuries on his body and couldn't help frowning.

"This is a cowhide whip, and he is still alive after this kind of trauma, this kid is also powerful enough. Nalan Lingyun began to talk again, he majored in trauma, and he was the best at bruises, bone injuries, and massage, but he saw that there was a poisonous wound on the bronze neck, which was not his forte. He glanced up at Yifeng beside him, and asked him: "The fatal injury should be the pinhole in this neck, this child was fine yesterday, why did he become like this today?"

"Bronze he violated the rules set by the old prince, so he was punished. This pinhole...... I don't know ......" Yifeng couldn't believe that this usually optimistic bronze would cut itself.

"It was me, I just said something nasty to him, and that's why he took his own offense. Xie Yunxi sat aside, his face recovering slightly.

Nangong Yulu looked up at Xie Yunxi, Xie Yunxi looked at her worriedly, she got up and said to Nalan Lingyun: "Little grandpa, in fact, I also blame me, I just wanted to comfort Bronze at first, but I said the wrong thing...... The last one to leave him was ......"

Nalan Lingyun saw the two of them rushing to carry the blame, and shook his head for a while. Seeing that Xie Yunxi's face was not good, Nalan Zhishui immediately asked Alai to bring some sweet soup over, Xie Yunxi took the small sugar water given to him by Nalan Zhishui, and ate it all.

Nalan Rongque glanced up at his daughter, and then said, "Bronze is fine. The poison in his body has completely receded. Let him rest for a while, and he will wake up tomorrow morning. ”

Imperial Physician Liu on the side asked him a question at this time: "Mr. Nalan, what is the matter with Lord Bronze?"

"There's something inside him. Nalan Rongque said softly, his hand touching the bronze neck.

"Something?" everyone was stunned.

"This thing is called the Yongling Gu Worm, and it can make the lodger hurt without dying. Nalan Rongque said very seriously.

"Yongling Gu worm, the one recorded in the "Cordyceps Record"? But this book is more than four hundred years old, and no one has ever seen a living body, how do you judge it?"
