With the appearance of Xie Hanyan, the whole matter became much more reasonable. The carpenters recalled that the Master Nan stayed in the Southwest for quite a long time, more than half a year at least, and was often by Xie Hanyan's side, obedient to her, extremely humble and respectful, not at all like a court official. On the contrary, Xie Hanyan's attitude towards Nan Fei was very indifferent, and he came and went as soon as he was called. Even the troops of the southwestern tribes whispered in private, saying that he was obsessed with sex, and he was as useless as a dog.
Mu Chengxue already had the truth in his mind. Xie Hanyan was the number one beauty in Wangcheng back then, Lu Guangyuan must not be the only one who admired her. Although he had never met the Nan University man, but from the descriptions of the guards and the old carpenters, the man should be an ordinary person with short stature, dull personality, mediocre qualifications, and no outstanding appearance. It will be so overwhelming that you can't find it, so even if you admire it in your heart, you can only watch the beauty from a distance, and you have no courage, let alone the ability to get close. And it wasn't until the Xie family collapsed and Lu Guangyuan was killed in battle that he might have the first chance to get close to Xie Hanyan.
Many years of long-cherished wish, once it is fulfilled, it is reasonable for Nan Fei to obey Xie Hanyan's words in the future, but he is willing to build a temple for his rival in love, and he does not hesitate to violate the laws of Daliang. Also too lustful.
"Now that the southwest is in chaos, you should continue to live in the village." Mei Zhusong advised, "When it is safe outside, the prince should arrange for everyone to return to their hometown, and there is no rush for this moment."
Everyone thanked them again and again, thinking of the past, they sighed and couldn't sleep all night. In the early morning of the next day, the big guy sent Mei Zhusong and his party to the entrance of the village and watched them go away.
…
From Guitiaoxia to Yuli City, it takes only three to five days. Because a guard had been sent back to report the news, Yun Yifeng went to greet him outside the city gate in the early morning, and said with a smile: "Senior!"
Li Jun also came along, seeing that Meizhusong was safe and sound, the heart that had been hanging in her throat finally fell back to her stomach. Mei Zhusong saluted and said: "I escaped from death this time, I would like to thank King Pingle for giving me all the guards around him."
Li Jun laughed dryly. In fact, what happened was like this. One night when everyone was sleeping in the woods, when they talked about the tragedy of the Southwest plague, they felt really uncomfortable. Mr. Mei, because to protect Mr. Mei is to protect tens of thousands of households in the southwest. Although he is a prince, what is he compared to the common people? These passionate words won the applause of the guards at the time, but who would have thought that something would happen later.
If there is a chance to choose again, Li Jun doesn't know if she can be "righteous" again, after all, the shining long knife is still very scary. But fortunately, everyone is safe now, and by mistake, they found the magic medicine to cure the plague under the cliff-isn't even God helping? So even the steps are more brisk.
After Mei Zhusong checked Ji Yanran's pulse, he said, "My lord is in good health, and the symptoms are not serious."
"But the soldiers outside are not so lucky." Ji Yanran sat up propped up, "Earlier Ling Fei also sent half a bottle of medicine, which he said could cure the plague, but Yun'er kept it, so I troubled Akun to take a look. "
Yun Yifeng handed over the white porcelain bottle: "Brother Jiang tried the medicine himself, and he took half of the bottle himself, so don't have any problems."
Plum bamboo pine uncorked the bottle and smelled it, the faint herbal fragrance was exactly the same as the taste of the green mushroom, and I was a little happy - regardless of whether there is any problem with this medicine, at least it shows that it is still feasible to use the green mushroom as a medicine. He said: "It looks like there is no problem, but the ratio of this medicine is complicated, I have to study it carefully for a while."
"I'll send senior back to his room to rest first." Yun Yifeng said, "Later, I will go to Beiying to see the sick soldiers. They are the group with the most serious fever symptoms. The military doctors are helpless."
"Then why rest?" Mei Zhusong waved his hands, "Let's go, let's go and have a look now."
Li Jun held the medicine box herself, and trotted behind the two of them. Mei Zhusong personally checked the pulses and fed medicines to the soldiers. He didn't have a medicine boy, so Li Jun played this role, carefully recording the illness and dosage, not to mention, it was quite similar.
Three days later, the conditions of the soldiers in the northern camp improved, while seven or eight of the patients in the southern camp who had milder symptoms had recovered. There were thunderous cheers in Yuli City, wishing to throw this prairie genius doctor into the sky. Yun Yifeng finished feeding Ji Yanran the medicine, and said with a smile: "Senior Mei has already taught the military doctors, and is preparing to compile it into a book, and although the green mushrooms are not common, they are not as hard to find as blood ganoderma, and the plague can be saved. "
"Where's the bottle of medicine Ling Fei brought?" Ji Yanran asked again.
"Senior Mei is still investigating. There are indeed flowers and green mushrooms in it, but there are other things too." Yun Yifeng fed him a piece of candy, "Brother Jiang is all about saving the prince, so maybe he thinks it's safest to try the medicine himself. The only way is... that mother is really not very good, and the matter has come to this, I can only hope that the senior will find out the truth as soon as possible."
"I still think it sounds strange that Mrs. Xie had two children successively." Ji Yanran said, "According to Xie Jinlin's status at the time, the only daughter conceived first before marriage, so even if she wanted to keep the child, she should find an excuse in secret and send it to her." It is better to go to a remote place to wait for the birth. There are many people in the prime minister's residence, and there should be a lot of news about the birth and confinement, so why is it so easy to hide it?"
"It also makes sense." Yun Yifeng thought for a while, "After all, that Miss Xie was able to coax the Minister of the Ministry of War to build a temple for her lover. It can be seen that the art of manipulating people's hearts must be first-class skill."
"Nan Fei..." Ji Yanran leaned against the head of the bed, "He is indeed extremely mediocre." Being mediocre really shouldn't make him successful in office. So when Yang Boqing accused Baihe of being instigated by Nan Fei and the first emperor, even Ji Yanran felt that everything was reasonable—otherwise, how could he explain the success of the master Nan for more than ten years
But looking at it now, perhaps Nan Fei's instigation was true, not because of the late Emperor's instigation, but because of Xie Hanyan. Even further, the ultimate purpose of the Baihe flood discharge, in addition to massacring the people, abolishing the prince, and disrupting the world, may have originally included killing Liao Han and the only son of General Liao.
Yun Yifeng asked: "Xie Hanyan still has a grudge against General Liao?"
Ji Yanran said: "There are many rumors among the people that General Lu was trapped in the canyon, and General Liao held a heavy army, but he never went out to help."
There are military considerations in this, but they are invisible to those who are overwhelmed by hatred and only want to avenge their lover.
The only praise that the late emperor gave to Nanfei in his life was "to present thirty-eight volumes of Southwest Mountain Folklore Chronicles, and he has made great contributions to the community". After a little more than a year, with a total of more than a dozen people, how can we compile thirty-eight volumes of local chronicles? In order to promote him, the emperor must have just found a reason and used ready-made credit to make up for it.
Ji Yanran said: "I guess Nan Fei did not hesitate to kidnap the carpenter and build a temple for General Lu because of his admiration for Xie Hanyan. Xie Hanyan exchanged the local chronicles of Southwest China, which may be written by General Lu or written by Partridge, but neither It's not important, what's important is that Nan Fei was able to rise to the top because of this, and he held a high position in the official position. Over the years, I'm afraid he secretly gave her and the Mustang tribe a lot of convenience."
Yun Yifeng thought to himself, according to this inference, the final murderers who killed Young Master Liao should actually be Nan Fei and Xie Hanyan? Nan Fei is dead, and as for Xie Hanyan... there is Jiang Lingfei caught in the middle, no matter what, no matter how heinous he is, she is still his own mother, and it may be difficult to solve it.
Ji Yanran patted him on the head: "Let's curb the plague first, let's talk about other things later."
In the dead of night, Yun Yifeng lay on his chest, listening to the beating of his heart.
The wind gently lifted the veils around him, and put them on his thin shoulders. Ji Yanran stroked those veils, and pulled him into his arms: "I've worked hard for you these days."
"It's not hard." Yun Yifeng smiled, "My lord is so obedient and obedient, unlike me at that time, I had to run all over the mountain just to take a medicinal bath."
Ji Yanran leaned over and kissed the corner of her slightly raised lips: "Sleep well tonight, I will watch over you."
Because of this sentence, Yun Yifeng let go of all his defenses, like a sleepy and tired little animal, sleeping very soundly in his lover's arms. Days of exhaustion turned into numbness and warmth, swimming along the spine to the limbs and bones, and the light rain in the early autumn was still "rustling" outside. In short, this night, everything is quiet, beautiful and peaceful.
It just lasts for a short time.
Before dawn the next day, Mei Zhusong hurriedly knocked on the door outside, saying that he had found something strange in the half bottle of antidote.
"What?" Yun Yifeng asked while putting on his clothes.
Mei Zhusong said: "There are blood lice eggs."
Just by hearing the name, you know it's not a fun thing. It is said that adult blood lice are a few points thinner than a hair, and can swim in the blood of the host, and then gradually gather in the heart. If a martial arts practitioner exerts his strength, it is very likely that the heart will be damaged and his life will be killed died.
Yun Yifeng felt palpitations, remembering that Jiang Lingfei also drank half a bottle, and hurriedly asked, "Is there an antidote?"
Mei Zhusong shook his head: "It's even more difficult."
Li Jun was furious when she heard that, and started to curse people. Is that Xie really Brother Jiang's mother? In order to lure the seventh younger brother to drink poison, he even used his son's life, abominable, really extremely abominable!
Ji Yanran's face was also gloomy, Yun Yifeng held his hand, and persuaded softly: "Perhaps... Ghost Thorn has a way to cure blood lice. The two have known each other as mother and child for so many years, so they can't be so ruthless, right?"
"Think of a way to send a message to Ling Fei, and tell him not to use martial arts until the truth is found out." Ji Yanran ordered, "And then send an order to Huang Wuding, after the plague is under control, there is no need to return to Yuli City immediately, and lead the army to Dingfeng City. Surround Lei San's rebels there!"
Yun Yifeng nodded: "Okay."
…
But in Rong County hundreds of miles away, Qingyue and Ling Xing'er traveled day and night, and after a lot of effort, they finally found the old friend of Jiangnan Shu and his wife, Xu Lu's widow.
"That child." Recalling the past, the woman sighed softly, "My father-in-law was out of good intentions, thinking that Mr. Jiang was weak, and he might not have any heirs in the future, and he happened to meet a baby who looked like Good seedlings who practiced martial arts were brought to Qingjing Water Village, but now it seems that good intentions have turned into big troubles."
The past is not long, nor is it short.
The woman slowly narrated the truth that was shrouded in clouds and mists, and finally she was able to reveal her true colors. Holding the cold tea in their hands, Qingyue and Lingxing'er were both stunned and shocked. It turned out that the past...was like this
…
Yun Yifeng lay on the bed: "My back is sore, rub it for a while."
Ji Yanran rolled up the newspaper and knocked him on the head: "I just recovered from a serious illness, and you rushed to order me. You are really arrogant and savage."
Yun Yifeng responded, changed her position, and comfortably pillowed on his lap, urging: "Hurry up, or I'll go find someone else."
Ji Yanran pressed his acupuncture points carefully: "Who do you want to go to? Tell me."
Yun Yifeng gasped in pain, and kept admitting defeat: "There is no one, just the old king who is blind and bone-setting in Chunlin City... ah!"
The guard hurriedly stopped in the corridor, thinking with fear, what are the princes and the Lord of the Cloud Gate doing in this day and night, then can I go in again
The figure outside the door swayed, Ji Yanran covered Yun Yifeng's mouth, turned her head and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Going back to the lord, it's the prisoner in the backyard who committed the spider. Just now he said that he remembered an important matter and wanted to talk to Master Yunmen face to face."
Ji Yanran was not happy when he heard the words, he was really tired of that lunatic.
Yun Yifeng wiped away her tears: "I'll go and see, she is Gui Ting's personal maid, maybe she really knows something."
"Stay away from her." Ji Yanran ordered, "Come back as soon as you cheat the truth."
Mu Chengxue happened to be in the courtyard, seeing Yun Yifeng arranging his clothes all the way down, he couldn't help but take a second look.
Master Yunmen explained that I was taking a nap just now, it was true.
Mu Chengxue said: "This is very good."
Yun Yifeng tapped Diao twice with his fingers: "What?"
"If you want to force her to tell more things, that's fine." Mu Chengxue took off his hairband casually, hugged Diao, and left.
Yun Yifeng: "..."
And the spider was almost driven mad by the "Miss Yun" who appeared out of nowhere, so that as soon as Yun Yifeng entered the door, she rushed forward dragging the shackles that made a "ding jingle" sound, and clasped the window grille with both hands , asked sharply: "What did you do just now?"
Yun Yifeng's clothes were not in order, and his black hair was not in order. After thinking about Mu Chengxue's words, he replied concisely: "Sleep."
The spider asked again: "Is it alone?"
Yun Yifeng dragged a chair and sat in the yard: "Guess."
"My lord, don't be fooled by those witches outside." Zhu'er looked at him, and said earnestly, "I...only I am the one who treats you sincerely. I'm thinking about it, I'm really thinking about it. A cure for the plague can be found."
"Oh, that's not necessary." Yun Yifeng said casually, "Miss Yun has made thousands of bottles of pills a few days ago and sent them to various departments in the Southwest."
Spider's head thundered: "So the young master is just accompanying her these few days?"
Yun Yifeng defaulted.
"No, no!" Zhu'er walked back and forth in the room, sternly said, "I won't!"
"You can't help me, Miss Yun can help me, so naturally I'll be with you." Yun Yifeng stood up and cupped his fists, "If there's nothing else, I'm going to cook, wash, do tea, and embroider and watch together." The stars are looking at the moon, so farewell."
"Come back!" Zhu'er was really stimulated and yelled sharply, "I can tell you a secret that no one knows!"
