Chapter 18: suffering

Views:

When Sui Yan woke up again, it was past noon.

Today is a rare good weather, Jun Jingxing was sitting by the half-open window reading a book, and turned his head when he heard the movement.

Sui Yan just woke up, and before he opened his eyes, he stumbled and reached out to the box on the small case to get enough candied fruit.

Jun Jingxing was immediately amused, put down the book, and said, "Don't take it yet, drink the medicine before taking it."

Only then did Suiyan open his eyes and retract his hands. He looked at the half-opened window and said, "It's cold, the wind has come in."

Jun Jingxing brought the medicine warmed on the small stove and handed it to him, saying, "Don't be pretentious, there are five or six charcoal pots in the house, and the people on the other side have already been heated to death, open the window to let in the air and let it disperse by the way. It will be closed for you to dissipate the sickness, if you are too cold."

Sui Yan nodded sullenly, holding the medicine bowl and taking sips.

Jun Jingxing looked at his slightly drooping eyelashes, and suddenly said, "The third prince came to see you after you slept for a while."

Sui Yan's hand trembled, almost spilling the medicine.

Jun Jingxing stretched out his hand, pressed it tightly on Sui Yan's wrist, and said indifferently, "Why did he drop things so early? I fry this medicine for a long time, and then throw the bowl after drinking it."

Sui Yan was stunned for a while, he was still unable to think, so he drank the medicine obediently, and then suddenly threw the medicine bowl out.

The sound of shattering resounded throughout the room.

Suiyan said: "Next time he comes again, you will shoot him out."

Jun Jingxing looked at him leisurely, and the more he looked, the more amused he felt.

Before he came to the Hou Mansion, he always thought that this little Hou Ye was a prodigal son who was dazzled by beauty, and he was too jealous and contemptuous, but after getting along with him for the past few days, he changed his opinion unknowingly.

Where is this playboy, he is clearly a child who has not grown up.

Such an old child thinks about playing and eating candy all day long, maybe he doesn't even know what a prostitute is.

After Suiyan finished the command, he didn't wait for a response for a long time. He looked up and found that Jun Jingxing was looking at him very strangely. Instead of the usual disgust, he was kind and kind, as if he was condoning a mischievous child. .

He had seen this kind of look in his father's eyes when he was young.

Sui Yan shuddered and said vigilantly, "You... what are you thinking about?"

Jun Jingxing shook his head: "No, I was thinking of you."

Saying that, he casually stuffed another candy into Sui Yan's mouth.

Sui Yan looked at him with more dread. In the last life, Yuejian and him were busy as shit sticks in the capital, and he didn't have any thoughts about love between men and women. He just vaguely noticed that Yuejian's eyes were always very dark when he saw him. strangeness.

Even though he was placed under house arrest in the palace for the last year, Yue Jian came to look for him every day without a hitch.

Sui Yan pulled the quilt to cover himself without a trace, and said quietly, "I... I remember that I told you on the first day you came here that I really have no interest in men."

Jun Jingxing: "… "

Jun Jingxing glared at him with gritted teeth, thinking that he was blind just now, how could he think other people are harmless

Sui Yan looked down at his wrist, which he could circle with two fingers, and sighed silently, "Thank you for saving me."

In the last life, Sui Yan didn't have a few years to live after drinking the stigma. Three years later, he met Yue Jian by accident at the Fifth Prince's Mansion, and then he kept his body under control. No matter how powerful his medical skills were, Sui Yan barely survived another four years.

When Sui Yan thanked him so earnestly, Jun Jingxing was not used to it, he scolded himself for being cheap and pretended to be calm: "It's nothing, my father practiced medicine for many years and spent some time in the official medicine province. Although it can't be completely detoxified, it's not a problem to keep you alive for ten or eight years."

Sui Yan nodded, and without saying anything hypocritical, he stretched out his hand under the bed and said, "Come on, bring the rabbit up."

Jun Jingxing couldn't get used to Suiyan's habit of eating sweets and soft things, so he frowned and threw the rabbit that was nesting in the charcoal basin to keep warm by ear to Suiyan, and said, "Why do you like this? Growing things? As far as I know, only those little girls like to eat candy and such small animals... Hey! Don't let him in the quilt, aren't you afraid of getting dirty? What if there are worms?"

Sui Yan fiddled with the rabbit's ears and suggested, "Give it a name."

Jun Jingxing got angry: "Listen to me!"

Sui Yan said: "Let's call it Yuejian, you don't need that name anyway."

Jun Jingxing: "… "

As soon as Sui Yan finished speaking, he called directly: "See you in the moon, see you in the moon, come to my arms."

Jun Jingxing: "… "

Jun Jingxing was so angry that he almost took the rabbit out and roasted it.

At night, Suixun finally had time to come and see him.

Sui Yan half-leaned on the couch, looked at Sui Xun with a little grievance, and said, "Brother."

Seeing him lose a whole circle, Sui Xun was angry and distressed, and scolded: "In such a cold day, you run out without wearing your cloak, what on earth are you thinking? Is it so comfortable to be so sick? "

Sui Yan stretched out his hand towards him and said aggrievedly: "Second brother, give me a hug, okay?"

Suixun: "..."

Suixun doubted his ears.

Since he came back a few years ago, Sui Yan, who had always been stubborn, seemed to have suddenly changed his temper.

Is this person... a child

Suixun looked at him vigilantly and said, "Did you cause trouble again?"

Sui Yan took a deep breath and tried to keep smiling and act like a spoiled child: "No, just give me a hug, just for a moment."

Sui Xun was still worried: "Or did you do something wrong to offend the third prince today?"

Suiyan: "No, do you want to hug me?"

Suixun said, "Wait a minute... Or maybe you threw something that was given by the emperor..."

Sui Yan: "…"

Sui Yan looked at him blankly and said, "Brother, I'm tired, you go back first."

Suixun: "..."

Only then did Sui Xun believe that Sui Yan was really just wanting to act like a spoiled child, he thought about it, and then awkwardly said: "You are not a child anymore, don't always act like a spoiled child, cough... Since you are still ill, then ... then give it a hug."

Sui Yan said, "I don't want to hug anymore, so I will send my brother off."

As he spoke, he turned over expressionlessly, wrapped the quilt, and stopped talking.

Suixun: "..."

Suixun left with a gloomy face.

Jun Jingxing entered the room and patted the quilt, and said, "Everyone is gone, get up and drink the medicine."

Sui Yan lifted the quilt, and his eyes turned red.

Jun Jingxing said: "What's wrong?"

Sui Yan shook his head, took the medicine and took a sip. These days, he was given the bitter and deadly medicine all day long, and he gradually got used to the taste of the medicine. Although he was still disgusted, he was able to drink it.

Until a bowl of medicine was in his stomach, his brows wrinkled in bitterness, and he was about to get the candied fruit. A flash of light flashed in his mind, and suddenly he seemed to think of something. With a shake of his hand, the spoon fell straight into the bowl.

Jun Jing Xing looked at him suspiciously and put a candied fruit in his mouth.

Sui Yan looked at Jun Jingxing with wide eyes and said with difficulty, "What did you tell me this morning?"

Jun Jingxing didn't know why: "This morning? What did I say?"

Suiyan murmured: "You said that the ginseng soup...will bring out the toxicity of stigma..."

Jun Jingxing: "Yes, if the poison is strong, it can kill people in just a moment."

Sui Yan's eyes trembled slightly, and he seemed to have figured out something in a trance.

In the last life, Duan Ming Chong sat far away, and he didn't know what he ate that night. Duan Ming Chong also seemed to have died after toasting Duan Ruwang, but within a quarter of an hour he died of poisoning.

The reason was that the bowl of ginseng soup caused the stigma's toxicity to come on earlier.

The more Sui Yan thought about it, the more frightened he felt. He pressed his chest and gasped for a few breaths. He felt that the pain in his lungs was as if a needle was being pricked, and his eyes turned black.

End-to-end...

Duan Zhisu Xu didn't know what medicine was in the wine, otherwise he would not have prepared ginseng soup for Duan Mingchong. It would not benefit him at all if the prince died at his banquet.

But even if Duan Zhisu didn't know that there was stigma in the wine, he couldn't escape the drug use.

"Seeking skin with a tiger..." Sui Yan gritted his teeth and said, "You don't even know how you died?"

Jun Jingxing frowned and said, "What's wrong?"

Sui Yan inhaled lightly to prevent himself from fainting from the pain, and said with anger, "You... go to the attendant in the other courtyard and call someone over for me."

Jun Jing Xing was used to observing words and expressions, so he didn't ask any more questions when he heard the words, he went outside neatly and called people in. Knowing that Sui Yan had something important to order, he left the inner room and waited in the outer room.

Sui Yan pressed against the edge of the bed and instructed in a low voice, "Go and find out where Duan Zhisu's medicine came from, and then find out how many outsiders have been in contact with him during this time. Within three days, nothing has happened. big and small."

The attendant was stunned for a moment, and some did not respond: "Cha... Third Highness?"

He remembered that Sui Yan seemed to have a very good relationship with the Third Highness, so why did he suddenly secretly investigate such a private matter

Suiyan beat the edge of the bed, gritted his teeth and said, "Check!"

The attendant did not dare to ask any further questions, and was ordered to leave.

It was not until the attendant left that Jun Jingxing rolled up his sleeves and entered the inner room.

Sui Yan looked up at him and said nothing.

Jun Jingxing threw some soothing powder into the small incense burner, the two were silent, only the sound of sparks bursting from the charcoal basin resounded in the room.

After a while, the servants had come to change the charcoal, and Sui Yan felt much better, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Jun Jingxing got up and closed the window, Sui Yan kept staring at him, knowing that he was sitting back, and said, "I heard that you were sent to the frontier after you committed a crime against Sir Yin, how did you escape in the end? "

Jun Jingxing's hands trembled before he raised his head and smiled at him, "Why are you asking this?"

Sui Yan said, "I'm curious."

In the last life, no matter how Sui Yan asked, Yue Jian never told herself.

Jun Jingxing smiled, but instead said more neatly: "It's very simple, I committed suicide."

Sui Yan: "..." Where is it simple? !

The sinners who were sent to the big prison and committed mistakes are often bound by their hands and feet, unable to move, not to mention that the only possible way for these sinners to commit suicide is to bite their tongues, but seeing Jun Jingxing's tongue at this time is so clever. Reed's appearance doesn't look like someone who has bitten his tongue.

Sui Yan became more and more curious.

Jun Jingxing fiddled with the incense ashes in the small incense burner, and said lightly: "In the back street of the Temple of the City God in the capital... Oh, princes and nobles like you naturally don't know that there is a slum there, and it's all about money. There are desperados who can do it, children, adults, women and old people."

Sui Yan said, "So?"

Jun Jingxing said: "When I knew that the Yin family was going to die, I went and hired people to let them go before the officers and soldiers sent me out of the city..."

As he said, he smiled softly: "...kill me."

Sui Yan was taken aback: "You knew at the time that you would be sentenced to marriage? What if the emperor was so angry that he would kill you together?"

Jun Jingxing seemed to be talking about other people's affairs, and smiled casually with his lips hooked: "If my father commits a crime, I will be the only male in the house, and the emperor knows that his father is innocent, so naturally he will not kill them all. It's really annoying to let me stay in the capital, so naturally I want to get away as far as possible."

Sui Yan was secretly surprised, thinking that if a man like this was not born in a powerless and powerless mansion like the Yin family, and was born in any prince's family at will, he would definitely be a messenger.

Jun Jingxing ruffled his hair on his shoulders and said casually, "I hired a few children, and before I left the city, I pretended to be a beggar who came to beg and mixed into the crowd. In the chaos, I stabbed my heart with a dagger. ."

Sui Yan was startled when he heard this, although he knew that he would be fine after that, he secretly sweated for him.

Seeing Sui Yan's pale face, Jun Jingxing smiled lightly and said, "I practiced medicine with my father since I was a child, and naturally I know how to avoid deadly places.

Sui Yan said, "You just escaped like this?"

Jun Jingxing laughed at his whims: "How can it be so easy? I took the suspended animation before I left. Although the dagger avoided the key point, it was still firmly attached to my body."

Jun Jingxing was seriously injured, blood was dripping all over his body, the officers and soldiers who were escorting him casually glanced at him and threw him onto the food and forage escort car, dripping blood all the way out of the city.

Countless people who committed serious crimes and were exiled died on the road, and the officers and soldiers who escorted them have long been used to it.

After going on like this for an hour, a timid officer in the car carefully sniffed Jun Jingxing's breath, was startled, and hurriedly shouted: "My lord! My lord, this man is out of breath!"

The officers and soldiers driving in front said casually: "This is the first time to escort criminals, don't make such a fuss, don't look at us escorting dozens of people now, but how many can really survive to the frontier fief? Get used to it, don't get angry. Just throw him down, don't waste space... tsk, it's quite heavy."

The little officers and soldiers were so frightened that their faces turned pale, looking at Jun Jingxing's gray face, they folded their hands together and recited "Namo Amitabha Buddha", before shaking their hands and overturning Jun Jingxing.

While the car was still driving, Jun Jingxing, who was seriously injured, was thrown straight down, and his body rolled on the ground several times before slowly stopping.

It was precisely because of this that the breathlessness caused by the suspended animation was instantly broken, allowing him to come back to life.

Rao is like this, he still bleeds too much and almost didn't last.

Sui Yan was terrified when he heard it, sitting on the couch hugging the quilt and staring at him with wide eyes.

Jun Jingxing shrugged: "That's it, it's very simple anyway."

Suiyan: "..." So where is the simplicity

Suiyan suddenly remembered something and said, "You were saved only after you left the city. What about the ink tattoo? Didn't you suffer?"

Jun Jingxing was stunned for a moment, his eyes lowered slightly.

Sui Yan felt that he had said the wrong thing and said, "I seem to be asking too many questions."

Jun Jingxing smiled and said, "It's nothing."

He raised his sleeves and hung it on the hot charcoal basin for a while, until the cloth was hot for a while before gently wiping it on his left cheek.

Jun Jingxing's face was originally fair, but with his movements, the fairness became more and more strange. When he put down his sleeves, a black mark appeared on his face - it was stabbed in the face by the exiles in prison. imprint.

The imprint seemed to have been scribbled several times, and the words could not be seen.

Jun Jingxing flicked the rouge powder on his sleeves and smiled until his eyes curled: "Look, I will change my face."

He smiled so gently, as if he was not the one who had experienced these tragic hardships.

The author has something to say:

Jun Jingxing: I kill myself.
