Chapter 53: The Plague of Blood
Alu finally finished the meal. Since she came to Chongcaotang for Song Jiyue, she should go and visit the "culprit" who let Dong Junqin hold on to her.
From the inner courtyard to the backyard where the female dependents lived, Ah Lu bypassed a fragrant and quiet courtyard.
Dong Junqin introduced: "These are figs, these are ivy ......"
He told Alu that everything that was grown in the Lifting Grass Hall had medicinal purposes. Ah Lu listened to it with relish, but in the end, she couldn't help frowning: "Dong Junqin, don't you have simple plants in your house, just grow them that are beautiful or just like them." ”
Dong Junqin thought about it, but he really didn't. Dong's father was born as a farmer, and farming is his forte and his favorite, but farmers don't grow useless things.
Ah Lu: "I said that you are like this, won't Miss Song feel sad?"
Dong Junqin: "Sad?"
Alu: "This can help her breathe smoothly, this can help her keep out the cold, and this can help her relieve her headaches." As soon as I opened the door, I probably wouldn't want to open the door at all. ”
Dong Junqin didn't expect Ah Lu to say this. It's not that this idea is peculiar, but when he said this, most of the elders in the family thought him was strange.
Who would have thought that after such a long time, there would be people who felt the same way with him. Dong Junqin just wanted to say that he was a hero, but at the same time, Ah Lu was dissatisfied: "By the way, why did you just say that I am an orphan?
"Daddy?" Dong Junqin was helpless, "If you have a father, my father will dig up your family tree." ”
Allu was surprised: "Why?
Dong Junqin: "Because I have never brought a girl home." ”
Ah Lu: "I heard about it, but I explained to them that you don't take anyone home because you are cautious about making friends, and I may be helpful to Miss Song's illness, so ......"
Dong Junqin glanced at Ah Lu with a strange look in his eyes, and before he could speak, Xiao Que came out of Song Jiyue's house and bumped into them.
"Young Master, you're back!" Xiaoque was overjoyed to see Dong Junqin, but when he looked at Ah Lu beside him again, his face sank, "Who is this?"
Xiao Que Fang is not in the inner courtyard, so he should not have heard of her. So Ah Lu took the initiative to introduce himself.
However, the little finch was not happy to learn of her purpose. Instead, full of vigilance?
Be on guard, she won't come often anyway.
When Song Jiyue got up, Xiaoque told her about Ah Lu's coming to Dong's mansion. At the end, he said, "Miss, you have to be careful. ”
Song Jiyue had already heard about Alu from Dong Junqin, but she didn't expect Dong Junqin to really bring people back. To be honest, she was a little excited.
The last time she met someone new was when Dabao was brought back a few years ago. However, Ah Lu is different from Dabao, she is a female ...... Child.
And Song Jiyue has never had a female companion of the same age who can be close to her, even Xiaoque is trembling every day, for fear that she will catch a cold and feel uncomfortable.
So when she heard Xiaoque's thoughts about Ah Lu, Song Jiyue didn't care.
Xiaoque felt that her young lady was really stupid: "You haven't seen the young master's way of treating her, and I have never seen the young master be so close to any woman, just call someone else's name!"
Song Jiyue snorted, it was not her name but her full name. But Song Jiyue knew that what Xiaoque really cared about was not this: "Xiaoque, Ah Jun's age, it is time to be close to the right girl." ”
Sparrow: "Miss!"
Song Jiyue: "Okay, don't say anything, let them in." ”
When Ah Lu saw Song Jiyue, his first reaction was that the name was really good. Ji Yue, Ji Yue, breezy Ji Yue. is different from the patient with yellow muscles and thin muscles she imagined, Song Jiyue has a sense of elegance between her eyebrows and eyes, but because of her vain expression, she does not mean to be tall.
Alu defines her as: "A good girl at first glance".
When the two met for the first time, they looked at each other and smiled, feeling like they were old at first sight.
Thanks to Dong Junqin's blessing.
However, is it necessary for the Dong family to all stand here and watch her take Song Jiyue's pulse!
Ah Lu's gesture was taught by Dong Junqin, and it was just to cover up at that time. But being stared at by so many people, especially since most of them are real medical people, she has a weak heart!
In the middle of the sound, Father Dong said, "Miss Alu, how is Ji Yue's body?"
Ah Lu: "Well, the three souls and seven spirits are not in place, especially the heart and lungs. Forehead ......"
This is also taught by Dong Junqin, and the heart sound technique is really useful.
Father Dong: "Then Miss Alu has a good recipe?"
Ryu: "Well, I need to take a closer look. ”
Finally, Dong Junqin spoke: "Father, Ah Lu is probably going to consult a doctor, or let's all go out first." ”
After Dong Junqin sent people away, only she and Song Jiyue were left in the house.
Song Jiyue couldn't help but smile when she saw that Ah Lu was so nervous that she hadn't put it down until now: "Miss Ah Lu, they're all gone." You don't have to stand in this position. ”
"Oh. "It turned out to have been discovered a long time ago.
Song Jiyue looked at her embarrassed face and explained: "Ah Jun told me about you before, and I know you don't know this. And you're ...... Didn't touch me at all. ”
Alu is embarrassed, she is indeed pretending, there is no doubt about it. But Song Jiyue's situation, she doesn't need to take a pulse to feel it.
But although she can't diagnose the pulse, it's always okay to ask for a consultation.
Song Jiyue was originally reluctant to mention that incident to others, the reason was that in addition to the heavy past, she didn't want to be sympathized, and she was very young at the time, and many details had long been unremembered.
But the object was Alu, and she didn't think much about it.
The whole thing has to start with the relationship between the royal family, the Song Mansion and the Dong Mansion.
Before the rebellion of the family, Xuanning was just an idle prince, and he had a good relationship with Xiao Song of the Tai Hospital.
And Lord Xiao Song got close to Master Dong in Jianghu Langzhong, that is, Dong Junqin's uncle, because of his position as a doctor.
During the rebellion of the family, Master Dong accidentally saved Xuanning's life, which made him the only remaining orthodox heir, and also made the three families close friends.
But with such a large-scale civil strife as the family rebellion, it was not enough to kill the emperor and gravel.
Not long after Xuanning ascended the throne, there were assassinations of princes and nobles in various places, and in the end, even the palace was not safe.
Emperor Xuanning was not in good health because of the stimulation of the family rebellion, so he did not have many heirs.
Chenyang, as one of his princes, was not taken seriously because of the low status of his maternal family, and escaped the catastrophe.
But everyone understands that if this development continues, you can't escape the fifteenth year of junior high school. So Emperor Xuanning decided to pin his hopes on this inconspicuous prince.
Chenyang was in June at the time, and his companion was the eldest son of Lord Song of the Ministry of War, that is, Song Jiyue's brother.
The son of the Song family has a good relationship with the son of the Dong family, that is, Dong Junqin's brother Dong Juncheng, and every time he sneaks out to play, he mostly hides in Yanjiao. came and went, Chenyang, the son of the Song family and Dong Juncheng also became closer and closer like their fathers.
At that time, Emperor Xuanning and Lord Da Song had already figured out the thieves lurking in the palace, and they planned to return their lives in the way of others.
Before the plan was launched, there were successors to the maintenance of the country, and they planned to change the tanuki for the prince, and find someone of the same age to change Chenyang out of the palace.
At this time, it was originally the Song family who bore the brunt, but the Song family was in a high position, and who didn't know the children of their family?
It's too risky to let Song Gongzi come. So they found Dong Juncheng, who was one year older than Chenyang.
Dong's father had the idea of Nong Shengshi at that time, although this matter was risky, but once it succeeded, Dong Jiafei Huang Tengda was just around the corner.
Even if Dong's mother, who was pregnant with Liujia at the time, objected, she couldn't prevent her son from being brought into the palace.
A few days later, the clearance operation was carried out smoothly as planned.
But I don't know what went wrong, Dong Juncheng's identity was exposed.
Master Dong, who was secretly taking care of his grandson in the palace, tried his best to spread the news. When Lord Song heard the news, he sent his eldest son to sneak out of the city to report to the Dong family. Dong's father immediately forced Dong's mother to take Chenyang to Tianqing for refuge.
However, in addition to making Dong's mother miss the last side of her beloved son, the Song family's actions also caused death to the whole family.
Song Gongzi was arrested on the way back to Beijing, and the killer surrounded the Song Mansion. In order to prevent the grass from startling the snake, Lord Song did not increase the number of soldiers, so the killer was almost invincible. Except for Song Jiyue, who was locked in a small cabinet by her mother, everyone else was hacked to death with a knife.
This is the biggest vicious incident in the capital after the rebellion of the family.
However, these things were all learned from Uncle Zhao one after another after Song Jiyue was hidden in the Dong family for many years.
As the person concerned, Song Jiyue only remembered that she saw a lot of bloody faces and a lot of miserable screams. She went from nervous and scared to numb in the cabinet, and she didn't sleep at all for a long time after being found by Uncle Zhao.
It's not that she's afraid of nightmares, but her body seems to be frozen in that moment, and she can't live normally.
About a year later, Dong's mother came back from Tianqing, she hugged Song Jiyue, who was "dead and blind", and cried, and after this cry, Song Jiyue's spirit came back one after another.
In the end, the liquidation operation was successful, but the parents and brothers were gone. But what about the Song family, who was still posthumously crowned as a loyal martyr, and secretly helped each other?
Except for the bounty and the business of the seven-petal leaves, there was nothing. Even the corpses of Master Dong and Dong Juncheng couldn't be gathered.
After listening to this, Ah Lu somewhat understood why Dong Junqin's attitude towards the imperial court was so entangled. If she had been, she would have hated those royalties a long time ago.
Song Jiyue: "What Lord Xiahou means, the remnants of the emperor in the palace have been cleared, but not necessarily outside the palace." Once the Dong family became famous because of this matter, they were afraid of attracting vendettas. ”
"I'm afraid that's not the only reason, right?" Ah Lu tentatively, "I heard Dong Junqin mention that the government's attitude towards their family is very subtle, as if they always look down on them. ”
Song Jiyue explained: "It's a little bit. After many years of that incident, the world gradually stabilized, and the Emperor Taishang knew that Uncle Dong had taken me in, and he was sad, and he gave him the house and land, and even intended to let Ah Jun enter the palace. The other adults in the capital felt that Uncle Dong was asking for credit from me. In the troubled times, no one has sacrificed, the Dong family has just lost an old man and a child, why can the Dong family skip the formal way to get the hereditary honor. Especially Ah Jun was still a foreign visitor at that time. ”
Ah Lu: "Then why didn't he leave the Azure Realm at that time?"
Song Jiyue: "Uncle won't let me." She felt that Brother Jun Cheng would die tragically, all because of his relationship with the royal family, so she didn't let Ah Junxia Tianqing. Moreover, Ah Jun has grown up there since he was a child, and he has long been accustomed to being free and easy, and he is not used to asking him to enter the palace. ”
Ah Lu didn't understand why they were all people who had experienced the tragedy of life and death, why they were so mean to the Dong family.
Song Jiyue: "Miss Alu, people's hearts are very strange. Just like me, although I have lost all my loved ones, I don't really feel sad except for some regrets. ”
Ah Lu does not deny that the most difficult thing in the ghost world is love and hate, and the most chaotic thing in the mortal world is not people's hearts.
The two were silent for a long time before Ah Lu changed his relaxed expression: "You just said that you have regrets, do you want to see your parents and brothers again? ”
Song Jiyue shook her head with a smile: "No, I just regret that I was young at the time and couldn't remember more." ”
Ah Lu didn't understand that this kind of thing should be forgotten to help her recover: "And hasn't the Huangfu Rebellion Party been cleared?"
Song Jiyue shook her head: "The liquidation is only temporary, there were hundreds of thousands of people under Huangfu Li's subordinates back then, how could it be completely cleaned up." Miss Ah Lu, Ah Jun has a sad face when he comes back from Tianqing this time, can you tell me if the recent events are related to the incident in the Huangfu family?"
Ah Lu opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to say it, so he had to say that he didn't know.
Song Jiyue was a little disappointed and bowed her head silently. Seeing her like this, Ah Lu said in her heart: This Song girl is relieved in her words, but she still remembers this matter in her bones.
Huangfu Lil is a real national hatred and family hatred for her, no matter how young she is and how little she remembers, it is impossible to erase it easily. Therefore, her soul loss is not cured.
