Pour the glass

The female family members of the imperial palace rushed back to Lin'an from Haoling, and the journey was mighty and mighty.

"How could this kid figure out our plan?" Cao Boxiao rode on a horse and walked at the forefront of the team. He gritted his teeth unwillingly and asked Shen Yuan, "Young General Shen, but you After I left, did you accidentally leak something?"

Shen Yuan hurriedly shook his head, "How can my younger brother be so unreliable in doing things?"

"Then why?"

"Although this thorn in my side has not been resolved this time, it has not been in vain." Shen Yuan hastily changed the topic elsewhere, "What Nine Thousand Years ordered has been done."

"Oh?" Cao Boxiao squinted at Shen Yuan, "What did you find in Haoling?"

"As we know for many years, Yan Ge, the demon boy in troubled times, is not in Haoling at all." Shen Yuan paused and explained, "By helping Princess Chushan find the gold hairpin this time, I have searched all over Haoling. Ling, if Yan Ge is really in Haoling, even if he died, there should be some traces, but there is nothing. The only possible explanation is that Yan Ge was not imprisoned in Haoling back then, but was arranged by the eldest princess to other places "Speaking, Shen Yuan stared at the faintly distant Lin'an City, "Over the years, Hanxiguan has deliberately withheld the military pay and supplies, but every time the Jin Dynasty comes, Hanxiguan always has the most elite equipment to meet the enemy. Yan Qian won't have that much money to build this batch of equipment, so..."

"So Yan Ge is a variable for the eldest princess to stay in Dayun!" Cao Boxiao suddenly realized, "Perhaps the so-called demon boy in troubled times is just the news that the eldest princess released deliberately, just to attract our attention, so that she will be kept by the emperor for the last time. One hand."

"Your Majesty's great opinion, I admire you!" Shen Yuan repeatedly praised.

Cao Boxiao pondered for a long time, and suddenly drove the horse faster, "You stay here first, I will go back to the mansion and tell my father about this."

"Okay!" Shen Yuan watched Cao Boxiao gallop away, his eyes sank, and he murmured, "Zhexue, this young general is finally back, do you miss me?" Ziyuan, who was near Cheluan, thought to herself, "Qi Ziyuan, if you don't die, you will be in serious trouble after all!"

Ziyuan seemed to be aware of Shen Yuan's malice, she met Shen Yuan's eyes with a smile, smiled lightly, it seemed provocative, and it seemed that she didn't care whether Shen Yuan hated at all.

"Major General, Major General!" A court lady suddenly raised her skirt and chased after her.

Shen Yuan roared impatiently: "What's the matter?"

The palace maid was so frightened that she fell silent for a moment, before she said, "The imperial concubine please go over."

"Aunt?" Shen Yuan had no choice but to restrain his temper, reined in his horse and ran over.

Concubine Shen gently brushed the curtain of the car, quietly watching Shen Yuan running, "Yuaner, come."

Shen Yuan smiled and said, "Auntie, what are your orders?"

Concubine Shen took a closer look at her heroic nephew, and sighed softly: "Yuan'er is getting more and more handsome, and he has matured a lot."

Shen Yuan was rarely praised by his aunt, but today he suddenly heard Concubine Shen's praise, but felt a little embarrassed, "Aunt, I have actually grown up!"

The smile on Shen Guifei's face suddenly sank, "But when it comes to doing things, she is still as naive as an eight-year-old urchin!"

Shen Yuan was shocked, "What does Auntie mean by that?"

Concubine Shen said coldly: "There is no 300 taels of silver here, you should understand what Auntie means. Some people don't move if they can't move, and don't make any stabs in the back unless it is absolutely necessary. What's more, you shot in the back this time It's no different from Ming Gun."

Shen Yuan froze in place, it turned out that Shen Guifei knew that he was setting up a trap to frame Qi Ziyuan.

"Captain Qi is a smart man, he should not be underestimated, you have to be more careful in what you do in the future." Concubine Shen coolly put down the curtain of the car, "There should be no idiots in the Shen family, I hope Yuan'er will remember that. "

"Thank you, Auntie, for your guidance." Shen Yuan sighed dejectedly, gritted his teeth unwillingly and gave Ziyuan a far look, and murmured, "Yuan'er will take this person's life sooner or later!" After finishing speaking, he turned his horse's head and rode The horse returned to the head of the line.

Concubine Shen Gui sighed softly in the carriage, lifted the curtain on the other side, stared blankly at Ziyuan in the distance, as if she was lost in thought.

All the way into Lin'an City peacefully, all the female relatives rushed back to their respective palaces to freshen up and prepare to entertain the Jin envoy with Emperor Yunhui in the evening and gather for a state banquet.

After Ziyuan finished deploying defenses in the imperial city, she returned to the imperial guard camp as ordered, preparing to change her court uniform before entering the imperial city to be on duty for the night.

"The hot water and medicinal gauze are put here, and the official clothes are put there. You can all go down."

After Zi Yuan gave orders to her subordinates in the bedroom in the backyard of the imperial guard camp, she locked the door tightly, checked the window sash carefully, and closed the window sash, then breathed a sigh of relief.

"Finally I can take a good shower and change into clean clothes!" Ziyuan said in a very comfortable and authentic way, before bowing her head and starting to undress.

When the chest cloth was untied, Ziyuan breathed a long sigh of relief, stepped into the big bathtub with a smile, and sat down beautifully—the warmth was everywhere, Ziyuan couldn't help shivering, and looked sideways at the shoulder.

The sweat towel that my sister gave me was as white as ever, and it was tied outside the gauze. Ziyuan slowly relaxed and held it in the palm of her hand, and said with a smile, "Aling, thank you..."

Thinking of the scene of Ah Ling doing laundry in Taoyuan, Ziyuan couldn't help laughing dumbfoundedly, this master is actually not cold.

Ziyuan put the sweat towel on the wall of the bathtub, and started to untie the gauze from the wound.

The wound has healed and even started to scab over.

Ziyuan poured the warmth on it, and still felt a little pain, "The fairy well water really has miraculous effects, and ordinary wounds can heal so quickly." Ziyuan secretly praised, the smile on her face froze suddenly, she took a closer look Looking at the wound, he stretched out his fingers, and pinched a looming black thread between the scabs.

"This is..." Ziyuan twitched violently, and the black hair was pulled out from the scab, and her tongue hurt, "The granny obviously has white hair all over her head, so this hair must belong to Ah Ling..."

In the memory, there is a blank, but in the mind, Ziyuan can imagine a picture.

That cold-faced Ah Ling, who is always fierce, carefully sewed her wound up under the lamp with black silk as a thread—she might be afraid of hurting Ziyuan, so she would pay attention to Ziyuan's sleeping face from time to time, and she might also She pierced the needle with a heart of iron and steel, and when she was done, she gave Ziyuan a hard look and scolded - stinky girl.

A strong warmth hits, and Ziyuan even imagines the scene of A Ling gritting her teeth and pulling out her hair, but she never knows that the inseparable life and death that day is far more touching than what Ziyuan imagined at this moment.

"Aling, I will thank you very much when we meet next time." Ziyuan held the blue silk tightly, murmured, and carefully wrapped the blue silk with a sweat towel on the basin wall, and placed it safely in the bathtub on the side stool.

"Dong dong!"

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.

Ziyuan quickly shrank her body under the water, and asked in surprise, "What's the matter?"

"My lord, Princess Chushan sent someone to invite you to enter the palace quickly, saying that I have something important to discuss!"

"Understood!" Ziyuan breathed a sigh of relief, "Prepare my horse first, and I'll be out right away."

"promise!"

Ziyuan heard the footsteps of the approaching people walking away, and immediately scrubbed her body clean, carefully wrapped the gauze around the wound, then stepped out of the bathtub, and quickly put on the court clothes.

"Ah, I shouldn't have come... to come here at this juncture!" Zi Yuan put on her upper body, frowned and cursed suddenly, only to see a streak of blood hanging down her inner leg, and her lower abdomen began to ache, she sighed, Ziyuan exclaimed again, "It's over, we haven't had time to prepare the menstrual paper yet!"

Drunk tonight, my sister must have it!

After much deliberation, Ziyuan found that this was the only way she could choose!

Ziyuan found a piece of clean old underwear in the room, hurriedly tore it open, put the cloth strips together, put it under her body for the time being, and then hurriedly pulled up the trousers, and hurriedly turned around and glanced at the room to make sure There was no trace of a woman left, so she grabbed the folded sweat towel, held the court crown in one hand, stepped on the court boots and hurried out the door.

"drive!"

Ziyuan urged the horse to run quickly, and after a while, she arrived outside Zui Jinxiao's backyard.

"Strange? Why is it so quiet here today?" Ziyuan jumped off the horse and flew into the backyard, but she couldn't see anyone, let alone hear the singing from the front hall, and couldn't smell the smell of wine. .

Without thinking about it, Ziyuan rushed to the small pavilion where Su Zhexue usually rested, and found the menstrual cloth that Su Zhexue had prepared for her in the cabinet.

Ziyuan quickly walked around behind the screen, resolved the most worrying matter, and threw the blood-stained cloth into the barrel of night incense, and finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Where did sisters go?" It's a pity that she can't really rest assured after all, Zui Jinyan never closes the business, how could it close the business in just three days after she left, and the servants scattered?

Ziyuan really couldn't figure it out, so hastily closing the door and scattered, could it be that something major happened?

"By the way, why did Ah Ling suddenly appear in Guhong Mountain?" Ziyuan thought of this question that she had always wanted to ask, but was always interrupted by various things.

"Could it be...Could it be..." Ziyuan thought about it. In this Lin'an City, there is no one who can threaten Zui Jinxiao and make Zui Jinxiao close the business, unless it is her sister who wants to escape and avoid certain threats.

Heart suddenly hung up.

"Sister..." Ziyuan looked around the small pavilion. Usually, no matter what my sister did, she would have an explanation. This time, she left in such a hurry. Could it be that she didn't even have time to leave an explanation?

Ziyuan thought for a while, then suddenly walked to the place where her clothes were kept on weekdays, and opened it.

This closet is full of clothes prepared by Su Zhexue for Ziyuan, many of which are sewn by Su Zhexue herself. Usually, Ziyuan is full of joy when she sees these clothes, but today Ziyuan sees these clothes. For no reason, there was a thick sourness lingering in my heart.

"Sister, where have you been?" Ziyuan felt a little scared, the first time in three years that she felt such fear.

She stretched out her hand and rummaged through the layers of clothes, and suddenly her eyes were fixed for a moment - a corner of white paper was exposed from the clothes.

Ziyuan hurriedly took out the white paper, her eyes fixed on the black words on the white paper, it was Su Zhexue's letter to her.

"Idiot, my sister knows that you will mess up your clothes, but no matter how messy you are, she can tidy it up. If you don't see my sister, don't panic. My sister is fine. If you see this letter, you can go to the seventh room in the east of the city. Meet at the house."

Ziyuan breathed a long sigh of relief, closed her eyes, and vaguely saw her sister sitting by the desk, writing these words with a smile, she couldn't help muttering: "Sister, I haven't seen you for a few days, you are really an idiot!" miss you."
