On the way from the side courtyard to the main house where Mei Changsu lived, Li Gang tried several times to find out from Fei Liu why the sect master called them, but Fei Liu seemed to be still angry with him, sometimes ignoring him, sometimes ignoring him. Although he answered two sentences, the answer was like a fairy in the sky, making people ignorant.
When he arrived at the main house, he pushed open the door and looked over. Mei Changsu was not alone indoors, nor was he lying on the bed. He was half leaning on a long couch under the pink screen window in the south, wrapped in a round, only two arms were exposed, and his sleeves were still rolled up. Doctor Yan was leaning over to collect needles for him.
"Thank you." After the last silver needle was pulled from his arm, Mei Changsu put down his sleeves and thanked him with a smile. He has always been in good spirits during the day, not like a person who is in a serious condition, but at night, his heart is hot, his limbs are cold, and he is often in danger of losing breath, fainting and hemoptysis. However, after Doctor Yan's careful conditioning, the most frightening juncture was barely passed.
"Sect Master, are you calling us here?" Li Gang Jing waited for Dr. Yan to put away the medicine box, then stepped forward and asked softly.
"Yeah." Mei Changsu pointed to the stool beside him, "You all sit down."
Li Gang and Zhen Ping both looked at each other, didn't dare to ask any more questions, and sat down silently.
"Tell me the truth," Mei Changsu calmly looked straight ahead, his voice a little weak, "Did something happen to Wei Zheng?"
He suddenly asked about the point of the matter, and the two subordinates couldn't help but jump up.
"Fei Liu said, there is a sister Wei living in the house..." Mei Changsu raised his hand to signal for the two to calm down, "I thought about it, no other woman surnamed Wei can get your permission to live in, the only thing that comes to mind is Wei Zheng's wife."
"It is indeed Mrs. Wei who is here," Zhen Ping said in a low voice, "because the sect master is recovering from illness, so we didn't..."
"Even if Yun Piao Liao didn't go with Wei Zheng and came to the capital alone, since she lives in Su's house, she shouldn't have come to see me..." Mei Changsu's eyes fell softly on Zhen Ping's face, "She Not coming... because you don't want me to know she's here, right?"
Li Gang and Zhen Ping lowered their heads together.
"Don't worry," Mei Changsu's tone was light, but calm, "I know that I'm not in good health right now, so I shouldn't be excited. But it's not a good thing for me to guess like this, right? What's wrong with Wei Zheng, you guys? Even if you tell me, I won't be broken with a single blow."
Having said this, he gasped slightly, coughed a few times, closed his eyes and concentrated, then opened his eyes again, looked at the two subordinates who were still hesitant, and slowly asked: "Fei Liu said that Sister Wei has not Dai Xiao, at least it means that Wei Zheng is still alive... Is he... arrested?"
Li Gang put his hands on his knees, clenched them, and let them go. After repeating this several times, Fang said, "Yes. He was arrested half a month ago."
Mei Changsu's lips trembled slightly, his gaze fell on the bookshelf in front of him, and he was silent for a long time.
"Sect Master..."
"It's okay... you guys can talk about it from the beginning."
"Yes." Now that he started, Li Gang didn't want Mei Changsu to ask questions one by one, and now he explained in detail how Xuanjing Si Xiaqiu suddenly set up an ambush to arrest people, how Jiang Zuomeng got the news, and how twice on the way. The rescue failed, how did Yun Piao Liao enter the capital, how did they plan the city gate robbery and finally failed, etc., the cause and effect were described one by one, and at the end, he comforted, "General Wei does not seem to be seriously injured, please rest assured."
Mei Changsu's complexion was snow-white originally, but his expression did not change much after hearing these words, but his breathing was a little short, and he was coughing a little. Dr. Yan came over and massaged his chest a few times, and was slowly pushed away by him.
"anything else?"
"Sect Master..."
"Is there anything else happening in Jingli?"
Li Gang and Zhen Ping looked at each other again, the latter leaned forward a little and tried to say in a calm tone, "It's not a big deal, it's just that I mentioned Tong Lu to the sect master last time that something was different, but I didn't expect it to be Really... King Yu probably sensed that Miaoyinfang was a secret hall listening to the suzerain's orders, and sent officers and soldiers to inspect it. Fortunately, Mr. Thirteen saw the opportunity early, and everyone evacuated. Now it is hidden in a safe place without damage. ."
"Sect Master Mei, it's time to take medicine." Dr. Yan came to interrupt again at this time, holding a pill with red color for Mei Changsu to take, and then staring at him after sipping a cup of hot ginger tea. Yin, this god of confusion, when Mei Changsu began to think about the current crisis again, his emotions were calmer.
"Is there any change in Nie Duo's side?" Mei Changsu asked this first sentence after drinking the medicine.
Li Gang was stunned for a while, and replied, "No news at the moment."
"Immediately send a code letter to him, ordering him to stay in Yunnan Prefecture and not go out no matter what information he hears."
"Yes!"
Mei Changsu paused for a moment, his expression slightly sentimental, "Back then, the Chi Yan Army was full of talents and good generals, but now some of the surviving people are famous, and only Wei Zheng and Nie Duo are easily recognized by old acquaintances... However, just in case, the old department called Langzhou, no matter what the original rank was, will temporarily crouch down and not move lightly."
"Yes!"
"You two..." Mei Changsu's gaze turned to Li Gang and Zhen Ping, who were beside him, and was about to say something when the two suddenly knelt down together, and Zhen Ping choked up and said, "We are both orphans, since childhood. I grew up in the Red Flame Army, and I was only a small ten commander back then. After more than ten years, the description has changed more or less. No big person will recognize us. !"
Mei Changsu also knew that the two of them had no family history, and they were unknown people, and the possibility of being identified was extremely small, so they were brought to public appearances at the beginning, and nothing has happened so far. Besides, in today's troubled autumn, it is true that they cannot do without their help. He sighed and said helplessly: "You two should be careful too."
"Yes." Li Zhen and the two heaved a sigh of relief and agreed loudly.
At this time, the closed door suddenly banged twice, and Fei Liu, who disappeared as soon as he entered the yard, said energetically outside: "Come on!"
"When did Feiliu learn to knock on the door?" Zhen Ping was stunned, and when he stepped forward to open the door, it was not a child-like teenager standing outside, but Yun Piaolian.
"Mrs. Wei, please come in." Mei Changsu said warmly, "Brother Li, move a seat."
Yun Piao rushes in, and sits down in front of Mei Changsu with a bow, and said softly, "Sect Master Mei ordered Fei Liu to be summoned, what instructions do you have?"
Mei Changsu looked at this strong and beautiful woman with pity in her heart as if she was looking at Nihuang, "Wei Zheng has an accident, it's really hard for you."
There were tears in Yun Piao Liao's eyes, but she forcibly endured it again, shaking her head and saying: "Wei Zheng has been hiding in Medicine King Valley for so many years and has been safe and sound... It was the scum that came out of my Yun's sect that caused him to be implicated... "
"Yun's family is surrounded by vines, and it is difficult to prevent one or two rotten generation. Compared with the love you have been defending for him for many years, what is it that he took the risk for you to come out and recognize each other?"
"But now..."
"Now that people are still alive, there is a way." Mei Changsu's demeanor was weak, but his words were very strong and his eyes were very firm, "Mrs. Wei, can you trust me?"
Yun Piao Liao stood up immediately, and was about to speak when Mei Changsu smiled again and interrupted her, "If Madam Wei believes me, go back to Xunyang immediately."
Li Gang said, "Sect Master, the Xunyang Yun Sect has been secretly besieged, and we will act only when the capital has an order. When Madam Wei goes back at this time, isn't the ambush of the Xuanjing Division in the middle of it?"
"That's right, Mrs. Wei will definitely be arrested once she returns to Xunyang." Mei Changsu's expression was cold and his eyes were deep, "But being arrested does not mean being convicted, and fleeing is self-incriminating. The taste of escaping after being convicted, you can’t choose this path until you are in a desperate situation. Besides, even if Mrs. Wei can escape, what about Uncle Yun? What about the huge Yun family? You can be implicated in harboring a traitor. If the Xuanjing Division takes Old Uncle Yun as a hostage, will you surrender or not?"
Yunpiao's flowers are as snow-like as snow, and he muttered: "Then Sect Master Mei means... first to capture it, and then to make a grievance?"
"Yes. Wei Zheng was a criminal thirteen years ago, but you two have only been married for more than a year. The world knows that it is unreasonable to say that the Yun family is hiding it. You can argue that you only know that he is the head of Yaowanggu, and you don't know. He is a criminal. Apart from the fact that the person who went to inform the Yun family has a confession, the Xuanjing Division cannot prove that you are old acquaintances. It is not uncommon for big families to fight infighting. You are the only daughter of the eldest house. It makes sense to make a false accusation after finding out Wei Zheng's true identity from some place to fight for property. Xunyang Yun's family is not an ordinary family. How many dignitaries in the court have been benefited by Ling Zun and you, you know better than me, As long as someone first advocates intercession and mutual protection, they can take the opportunity to create a voice of injustice. Yun Shi has done good deeds for many years, and the people's reputation and reputation can be followed, and His Majesty the Emperor is also very fond of you. If the Xuanjing Division has no conclusive evidence to refute you It's not so easy to get the accusation of Tibetan rebellion. It's just... Yun's exoneration is hopeful, but you yourself... "
Yun Piao Liao nodded, knowing what he meant. Yun's family is well-known for his medical treatment, and it is very difficult to be implicated if he is not guilty, but for himself, he is Wei Zheng's wife no matter what, even if he does not know his identity as a criminal, it is now criminal woman.
"I think what Wei Zheng is most worried about now is that he is afraid of implicated you. Even for him, you must not be stubborn, you must bite your tongue and say that you don't know, then even if you are implicated again, you will be sentenced lightly. As long as you keep your mouth shut. If you die and get out of Xuanjing Division's prison, you will naturally be taken care of by all parties, and you won't suffer too much."
"Sect Master Mei, don't worry," Yun Piao Liao smiled lightly, "I am not spoiling my daughter, and I am not afraid of suffering. As long as there is a day when I can meet Wei Zheng again, I can endure any kind of hardship. But... , over there in Medicine King Valley..."
"I'm not particularly worried about Medicine King's Valley," Mei Changsu smiled, "Master Sugu is not an ordinary person, he still has strategies for self-preservation. In the smoky land of Western Yue, there are countless mountains and mountains, and Master Sugu has both He can go to the court to declare his grievance, or hide in the rainforest, and see how he chooses. In short, the Xuanjing Division wants to take over the Valley of the King of Medicine, but I am afraid that it does not have the power to transport the medicinal materials. Just in the mountains."
"Fettered?" Yun Piao Liao was still a little shocked, "Isn't that..."
"It doesn't matter. What kind of family is Medicine King Valley? It doesn't matter if you are trapped for three or four years. Besides, is the land of Xiyue more familiar with Xuanjing or Sugu? It's just a few main roads. It's easier to seal them all."
Yun Piao Liao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, the adoptive father won't suffer any major damage, and Wei Zheng won't feel too guilty."
"Li Gang, do your preparations and send someone to escort Mrs. Wei out of the city before the curfew this evening."
"Yes!"
"Mrs. Wei must be careful on the road. If you are arrested anywhere else, the Xuanjing Division can say that you were absconded and arrested. Only when you return to the Yunfu will you have nothing to say."
"Yeah, how could there be a prisoner who absconded and sneaked back to his home in the limelight." Li Gang smiled, "The way will be arranged properly, Madam Wei can rest assured."
"In addition, you should pay attention to one point. Wei Zheng was arrested on the way to transport medicinal materials, and then he was escorted to Beijing. He did not publicly announce his charges. Once you are arrested when you return to Yunfu, it must be regarded as the reason why you were detained. You don't know, before no one told you Wei Zheng's identity as a criminal, you only knew that he was Su Xuan, and you didn't know anything else, understand?"
"Thank you Sect Master Mei for your guidance." Yun Piao Liao stood up and saluted, and after saying a few words about taking care of her body, she followed Li Gang and the others and left.
As soon as they went out, Fei Liu floated in, holding a bunch of scorching red plums in his hands, pulling out the plum blossoms that were offered in the largest vase two days ago, and inserting the newly folded bunch.
Mei Changsu stared at the bright flowers for a while, and suddenly remembered, "Fei Liu, there shouldn't be any red plum blossoms in our courtyard, right? Where did you pick them?"
"Someone else's house!" Feiliu answered confidently.
Mei Changsu was originally depressed, depressed and painful, but he was amused by him to the point of not knowing whether to laugh or cry. After coughing for a while, he summoned Fei Liu to come over: "Fei Liu, go to the secret room and knock on the door for me, then wait for a while. , if someone comes, help me in again, okay?"
Fei Liu tilted his head and asked, "A buffalo?"
"It's His Royal Highness Prince Jing!" Mei Changsu raised his face, "How many times have you said it, why are you disobedient?"
"Smooth!" Fei Liu defended.
"Okay, whether it's smooth or not, it's not allowed to call like this in the future. Go ahead."
The young man turned around quickly, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared behind Lianwei.
