Reverse Junhou

Chapter 30 Watching the sea [8]

Wen Xuechao didn't expect that Mrs. Wu still had a back hand, so she was stunned for a moment.

Mrs. Wu had a panoramic view of his reaction, she pushed the wooden box forward, and said calmly: "It's up to His Highness to make the decision."

Zhao Fengci shifted his gaze to Wen Xuechao, seeing that Wen Xuechao hadn't moved for a long time, his eyes were tinged with anger: "You tapped his acupuncture points?"

Mrs. Wu didn't reply, instead she got up and walked around behind Wen Xuechao, picked up a strand of Wen Xuechao's hair, and played with it in the palm of her hand: "If Ren Yu'er is eloquent, and our mother and son are connected by blood, I am afraid that sooner or later we will be killed." He was coaxed into obedience, don't you think?"

"I was almost persuaded by Yu'er," Mrs. Wu leaned closer to Wen Xuechao's ear, "You said the situation in the East China Sea exactly, but you didn't mention why you left the jade pendant to an outsider. After you went to the island, , Ever since I saw this kid from the Zhao family, I have never left his eyes for a moment. I'm afraid that everything else is just a cover, and the truth is that you have to save this kid."

Wen Xue jumped between his eyebrows, he took a deep breath and closed his eyes.After a while, he opened it again, his eyes became clear again, and he fixed his eyes on Zhao Fengci.

Zhao Fengci understood Wen Xuechao's indescribable meaning, and he made himself calm down, so that he would not fall into Mrs. Wu's scheme.

Several people in the pavilion fell into a stalemate, the snow-white pills were quietly placed in the box, and no one moved.

After a while, Zhao Fengci suddenly said, "If I take the pill, will you put us both back?"

"That's natural."

"Then no matter what happens in the future, it's just a grievance between the imperial court and Wushou, and has nothing to do with him." Zhao Fengci said again.

Mrs. Wu smiled: "Tiger poison still doesn't eat its offspring, so what does it have to do with my son if it grows in the future."

Zhao Fengci took a step forward, and took out the Burning Heart Pill from the box: "I hope Madam promises a thousand gold."

Wen Xuechao's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief.

Zhao Fengci took the tea served by the guard and swallowed the Fenxin pill in one gulp.As soon as the pill entered his stomach, he felt a burning pain in his body.He covered his lower abdomen, barely supported the seat beside him, his lips were gradually turning white.

"Fenxin Pill is strong, it does feel uncomfortable when taking it for the first time, it will be relieved after a while." Mrs. Wu put the antidote into her sleeve.

After another half a stick of incense, the burning sensation in his abdomen gradually subsided, Zhao Fengci bit his lip, straightened up and said to Mrs. Wu: "Relieve his acupuncture point, we will leave immediately."

The long night had come, and two Yandong sergeants who had been detained by Wushou were waiting at the bow of the boat with paddles in hand.Mrs. Wu's subordinates removed Zhao Fengci's shackles and sent them to the ferry.

"The acupoints have been released. After half an hour, you will be able to speak gradually and act as usual." Madam Wu said to Wen Xuechao warmly: "Yu'er, the life of the Zhao family boy is still in my hands, don't forget the relationship with your mother." Agreement."

Wen Xuechao simply closed his eyes, unwilling to look at her again.

Mrs. Wu was not annoyed either, she put the pipe stick in her hair, stood in front of the ferry with her arms folded, and watched their boat gradually sail away.

"Ma'am." Lady Xiao Wu popped her head out of nowhere, and asked weakly, "Madam is not very reluctant to part with you, why do you just let him go?"

"What are you panicking?" Madam Wu raised her lips slightly, "If the poison on the Zhao family's child is not cleared, he will not be able to escape from my grasp."

The two Yandong sergeants saw that the lord had escaped from Wushou with His Royal Highness, and they couldn't restrain their joy. Not long after they sailed out of Junliu Island, they set off signal smoke in the air, waiting for the main ship of Yandong to come to meet them .

The wooden boat moved forward slowly, cutting through the calm sea surface, and the moonlight was like water, reflecting the sea surface shimmeringly.Zhao Fengci was locked in the cave by Mrs. Wu for more than a month, and his eyes were not used to the strong light, so he could only close his eyes and take a rest.

After an unknown amount of time, he heard the sound of cloth being rubbed beside his ears, and then a cold voice rang in his ears: "Does poisoning taste good?"

Zhao Fengci opened his eyes slightly, only to see a slender figure standing in front of him blocking the moonlight.

There was only one candle lamp on the boat, and the light and shadow were on and off. He couldn't see Wen Xuechao's expression clearly, but judging from the tone of his voice, this person might not be in a good mood at the moment.

He raised his head and asked Wen Xuechao: "Are you able to walk?"

Wen Xuechao pulled off her hair at some point, and handed the Ge scarf that tied her hair to Zhao Fengci: "The shimmering sea hurts your eyes, Your Highness can use tulle to tie your eyes."

Zhao Fengci didn't reach out to take it: "The candlelight is too dim, I can't see clearly."

Wen Xue froze for a moment, but still bent down, he unfolded the Ge scarf in his hand, gestured in front of Zhao Fengci's forehead, and gently covered Zhao Fengci's eyes with the tulle.

He put his hands around Zhao Fengci's temples, trying to tie a knot around Zhao Fengci's head.However, due to the bumping of the wooden boat, the body swayed, and it was not fastened after several times.The tulle fell on Zhao Fengci's shoulder, and just as Wen Xuechao picked it up, Zhao Fengci grabbed her wrist.

Wen Xuechao's hands had been shaking just now, and now they were shaking even more.

"Wen Xuechao, what are you afraid of?" Zhao Fengci asked word by word.

Wen Xuechao seemed to be finally discouraged, and let go of his tensed fingers: "Fenxin Pill is highly poisonous in the western border, and it may kill His Highness at any time."

"I know." Zhao Fengci still held his hand firmly.

"Mrs. Wu is my biological mother, so she won't let me have trouble easily. If I delay for a while, I will definitely think of a way to escape, and His Highness will not be subject to her, nor will I have to suffer from the Burning Heart Pill..." Smell Xue Chao quietly withdrew his hand, threw the Gejin on Zhao Fengci's body, walked to the stern with a cold face, and ignored him no more.

Wen Xuechao's cold fingertips still remained in the palm of his hand.Zhao Fengci was stunned for a moment, the heat in his heart that was blown away by the sea breeze wanted to break through the ground again.

The canoe passed the reef and came to a wide area of ​​water.There were three huge ships parked on the sea, and the warships raised their red-golden sails, with the words "Yandong" written on them.The lights on the ship were brightly lit, and thousands of soldiers of the West Wing Army were waiting for their general to return at sea.

I wish the old general stood at the bow of the ship in robes and armour, seeing that Xue Chao really entered the enemy camp alone and brought back His Highness the Fifth Highness intact, he felt mixed feelings.

It is really unexpected that Wen Shizhen's old thief can raise such a courageous offspring.

Zhao Fengci boarded the ship first amidst cheers, and Wen Xuechao followed behind him silently.Zhu Liang first asked the reason why His Highness the Fifth Highness was blinded, and then greeted Wen Xuechao with admiration: "Your Excellency rescued His Highness Fifth without a single soldier. .”

Wen Xuechao took a look at Zhao Fengci, seeing that he was not going to tell General Zhu that he was poisoned, so he didn't want to say anything, but just bowed his hands and returned the junior salute.

"Uncle, after leaving Junliu Island today, Master Wen and I are a little tired. We might as well rest for one night, and then go to the camp tomorrow to talk in detail." Returning to Yandong Base Camp, Zhao Fengci said to Zhu Liang.

Zhu Liang saw that His Highness the Fifth Prince had lost weight and paled a lot, so he must have suffered a lot in Junliu Island.He hastened to order the camp to arrange properly, let Zhao Fengci rest early, and it would not be too late to talk about it after a few more days of health.

"Master Wen, can you stay in the camp for a day?" General Zhu asked.

"The governor Ren has arranged a guest room in the restaurant in the city, so I won't stay here for a long time. Whenever His Highness and the general want to talk about Wushou, I will come to the army again."

Wen Xuechao tossed and turned yesterday and stayed up all night.Today, even before dawn, he took a boat to go to Junliu Island for important people, and he fought with Mrs. Wu openly and secretly, so he was indeed exhausted.

Zhao Fengci was surrounded by soldiers, they worried about the safety of His Royal Highness Fifth Highness for many days, now that His Highness finally came back, they couldn't hide their excitement.Wen Xuechao saw that Zhao Fengci was having trouble getting away for a while, so she didn't step forward to disturb him, picked up the kudzu scarf on the table, tied it on her head hastily, then turned and walked out.

It seems that His Highness Fifth is very popular among the West Wing Army, and is deeply supported by his subordinates.The expressions of worry and joy on the faces of the sergeants could not be faked.

Bai Wan had already been waiting at the door leading Wen Xuechao's horse.Wen Xuechao got on his horse, turned his head to look at the big tent full of chatter and laughter, and waved his whip to signal Bai Wan: "Let's go."

Bai Wan rode his horse and followed Wen Xuechao, coming and going quietly.

Back at Qilin Restaurant, Bai Wan led the horse to the stables, Wen Xuechao shuffled, ready to go upstairs to rest.Before he entered the courtyard gate, he heard a rush of horseshoes coming along the end of the road.

Zhao Fengci changed into a black robe that he was used to wearing on weekdays, put away the reins and walked towards Wen Xuechao, but stopped a step away from him.

He stared at Wen Xuechao's face, with an abnormal tone of voice: "Why did you leave without saying hello?"

Wen Xuechao's expression was calm: "I'm tired, hurry up and sleep for a few more hours."

Wen Xuechao turned and entered the door, and Zhao Fengci followed him into the courtyard.Wen Xue went upstairs to the door of the guest room, glanced out of the corner of his eye, and saw that Zhao Fengci was still not far behind him.

"His Highness Fifth left the camp to find me in the middle of the night, but there is something important to discuss? If there is nothing important, please return to the camp earlier to rest." Wen Xuechao pushed open the door and made way for Zhao Feng to resign.

"Wen Xuechao," Zhao Fengci stood behind him, "Are you still blaming me for making decisions without authorization?"

Wen Xuechao was surprised for a moment, and then realized what Zhao Fengci said.He said without changing his face: "Your Highness is testing poison with himself, so I naturally have His Highness's thoughts. Of course I don't blame Your Highness, I only blame myself for underestimating Madam Wu's methods."

"The fact that I took Fenxin Pill has nothing to do with you," Zhao Fengci said coldly, "Since this method can leave Junliu Island, why don't I try it."

Wen Xuechao raised his head and looked into Zhao Fengci's eyes: "Your Highness doesn't care about his own life or death, and he doesn't care about Yandong's soldiers, and the safety of the entire Eastern Territory?"

"Do you think that after I take the Fenxin Pill, I will still be driven by Wushou, disregarding the lives of the people and subordinates in the Eastern Territory?" Zhao Fengci's face was frosty.

"Your Highness hates evil like a vengeful enemy, so naturally he won't give in easily." Wen Xue took a step back and sarcastically said, "In a few months, if Wushou attacks the sea, it seems that His Highness is willing to be poisoned rather than surrendered. It is useless for me to stay here, why not go back to Beijing tonight, and set up a memorial tablet for His Highness in Kaiyuan Temple first."

Zhao Fengci took a step forward, raised his arm to block Wen Xuechao's retreat, and lowered his voice: "Are you worried about me?"

Wen Xue's eyes gradually became sullen, but her face was still expressionless: "Your Highness's daughter has a bright future, so I shouldn't leave something for others to manipulate."

Zhao Fengci had a full view of Wen Xuechao's reaction.It seems that Wen Xuechao is no different from before.From childhood to adulthood, every time this person wanted to hide the panic in his heart, he would pretend to be calm, and put on a calm and breezy attitude.

"Although the Chisu Burning Heart Pill is highly poisonous, the antidote is not the only one. My grandfather and the king of Xijiang have been close friends for many years. I have sent someone to tell my grandfather to find the antidote. There are many famous doctors in the eastern region. , although it cannot be solved, there is always a way to alleviate it in the short term. I can pretend to be at the mercy of Mrs. Wu, please enter the urn, and take this opportunity to wipe out Wushou."

"Wen Xuechao, I will stand in front of you from now on, stop using yourself as a knife." He looked at Wen Xuechao's face.

These were the words he failed to say on that winter night five years ago.
