But Daiyu tossed and turned, stayed up all night, and at dawn, she felt a severe headache, heavy aches and pains in her limbs, and faint fever.When Aunt Yun came to see, she was in a hurry to ask for a doctor to delay the medicine. The troubled people turned their backs on their backs and blamed Zijuan and Xueyan for being careless.

But Daiyu said to Aunt Yun: "It's nothing to do with them, it's my own carelessness, I got cold when I went out at night."

Aunt Yun nagged for a few words, but said nothing more.

Because most of Daiyu's illness this time was due to depression in her mind, after a day, even though the fever had subsided, her spirit was still tired, she just leaned on the bed and lost in thought.

Xueyan brought the boiled medicine and said, "Girl, drink the medicine while it's hot."

Daiyu hummed lightly, took the medicine, Xueyan turned around to get the candied fruit, and when she came back, seeing Daiyu putting the medicine into her mouth spoon by spoon, she said bitterly for her: "Girl, Why are you drinking so much medicine?"

Daiyu said sullenly, "Then how should I drink it?"

Xueyan said helplessly: "Isn't it bitter?"

Only then did Daiyu come back to her senses, looked at the empty bottom of the bowl, and said nothing.

Xueyan said: "The girl has been in the house for two days, and it's not good if you are always crooked. How about if Xueyan is helping you to walk around the yard, disperse and disperse, but it will not be sure that it will get better soon."

Daiyu was still lazy, neither saying yes nor no.Xueyan came up to help her tie her hair. Because she didn't have much decoration at home, she just put on two more clothes and helped her walk a few steps slowly in the yard. She didn't want to but heard Zijuan talking to people outside. Talk: "The girl is not very well, I'm afraid I don't want to see you, please come back another day."

Daiyu was stunned when she heard this, and suddenly she was sullen and went out of the courtyard.Xueyan was stunned for a moment, but couldn't stop her, so she had to follow.

After all, Daiyu's feet were weak after being ill, she stumbled on the threshold, almost fell down, and was gently supported by her hands.

"Don't touch me." Daiyu shook off those hands and slowly raised her head, but suddenly realized that the person she was angry with was wrong.

With a collar of Tsing Yi, like a lush green bamboo, his eyes are full of concern.

"Junior Sister, what's the matter with you?" Chu Muhan was overjoyed when he first saw her come out, and then surprised when he saw the anger in her eyes.

"Brother, it's you." Daiyu said softly, and stood firm: "I'm sorry."

Chu Muhan looked at her, there was some inexplicable disappointment in her eyes, and as the anger faded away, she was stabbed in the heart for no reason: "Who do you think Junior Sister is?"

Who was it, at that moment just now, who did she think it was?

Didn't you tell yourself hundreds of times not to see you again?

Daiyu was in a daze for a moment, some confusion flashed through the bottom of her eyes, and then gradually became clear, and her expression returned to that coldness: "I didn't think who it was. Why is senior brother here now?"

"Oh, come and return the books from last time." Chu Muhan looked at her face and said, "Junior Sister, you look very bad, are you okay?"

Daiyu ordered Zijuan to put the book away, shook her head and said, "I'm fine."

She could understand his concern.However, after this incident, she has already understood what it means to become a tiger with three people, and people's words are terrifying.

So at this moment, such concern made her feel embarrassed, and thinking of that day, the concubine's thorny words, Daiyu felt even more aggrieved, and unconsciously said: "If there is nothing wrong, senior brother, please go back. When it comes to Daiyu, even though we are brothers and sisters, there are differences between inside and outside."

Chu Muhan was slightly taken aback, then nodded, his faint smile was as warm as sunshine: "I understand what Junior Sister means, I was negligent, and I won't come rashly in the future, Junior Sister, take care. If there is anything If you need me, you might as well send someone to tell me, and I will do my best."

He took a deep look at Daiyu, nodded slightly, then turned and left.

At this time, Daiyu felt that what she said just now meant to vent her anger, she sighed lightly, and felt even more exhausted, so she turned around and went back to rest.

Xueyan was puzzled, and said to Zijuan in a low voice: "How did Master Chu offend the girl? He was so angry."

Zijuan lowered her head and sighed: "Don't talk about it, just serve the girl." But in her heart, she was looking forward to someone who could come and untie the girl's knots.

The person Zijuan was looking forward to came soon, Shi Xiangyun.

When the sisters met in the old days, they were naturally very affectionate. They had lunch together and chatted until the sun was in the west. Under the urging of the mother at home, Xiangyun reluctantly left.Before leaving, he clings to Daiyu's hand and whispers: "Sister Lin, what I said, you must make a plan early, don't let them trick you in vain. I only know why you left now, really. When it comes to scheming people, don't look at the usual love and affection, once it comes to such a time, it's all fake."

Daiyu sighed, and said softly, "I see. Yun'er, thank you for telling me."

"If you thank me again, I'll be annoyed. We're both sisters. Besides, you and I have the same fate. Although I have uncles and aunts, I'm not my biological parents."

"So, you have to be careful."

"I'm not afraid, even if they have this idea, they can't be my master!" Xiang Yun raised his handsome eyebrows, and said with a bit of masculinity: "What does gold and jade have to do with me?"

Waving goodbye, Xiangyun was wearing a lotus-colored skirt, and the corners of the skirt fluttered up, but the golden unicorn she had been wearing all this time was nowhere to be seen.

Daiyu looked at her back and sighed in her heart.Old lady, is your love for us really a lie?

Now that I'm gone, you want to use Xiangyun's money to make a fuss, to deal with the raging theory of gold and jade.

So, but where does Xiangyun be placed?

and I?

Concubine Yuan invited you to come to my place and advised me to go to Xiqiang and Fan according to the selection order of the imperial court.

Are you really going to come and persuade me about this matter?

Daiyu leaned against the window lattice and closed her eyes in pain.At this moment, Daiyu was a little scared, fearing that the last bit of family affection would be disillusioned.

Mother Jia still came, not only she came, but also Mrs. Wang.Because Xiangyun reminded her, Daiyu already knew the reason for her visit, she was very disappointed, and even her expression turned cold.

"Yu'er, I heard that you were sick before, but now you are all well." Jia Mu's voice was still so kind, but Daiyu felt a chill through her bones.

"Go back to the old lady, everything is fine." Daiyu closed her eyes and said without emotion.

"That's good." Mother Jia narrowed her eyes, but remained calm.Sister Feng, who was usually quick-talking, was uncharacteristically standing behind Jia's mother, silently watching.

"Look, I haven't seen you these days, but the eldest girl is doing better now." Mrs. Wang said with a light smile: "People are in good spirits when they celebrate happy events. After all, you are right."

"Daiyu is an orphan, so there is no happy event." Daiyu said indifferently: "If you want to talk about happy events, I should congratulate the second aunt. The bad luck turned into good luck, and the death turned into good luck. Her body looks healthier. I think I won’t be haunted by ghosts again.”

She was satirizing Mrs. Wang's act of pretending to be a ghost to frame her last time. Mrs. Wang was choked up, and her smile was not embarrassed at once: "Young girl still has good teeth. But the happy event I said is true, Mr. Madame, do you think so?"

Jia Mu smiled and said, "That's right."

"Oh, please tell me what's going on, old lady and second aunt. Ladies and gentlemen, tell Daiyu in person." Daiyu was heartbroken for a while, and she stopped looking at Jiamu, carelessly arranging the lace on her skirt.

"Oh, the former entered the palace and met your big sister..."

"Big sister? My father and mother are only my daughter. Where did the elder sister come from?" Daiyu sarcastically said: "I remembered, the second aunt was talking about the imperial concubine and concubine of Fengzao Palace. Still be careful."

If you want to quarrel, 1 Mrs. Wang are not Daiyu's opponents. Mrs. Wang's idea of ​​getting close was blocked, and she felt angry in her heart, but she put on a sanctimonious smile on her face: "Yes, yes, I made a slip of the tongue The empress said, isn’t this the Western Qiang Mission’s visit to me to ask for marriage? The palace will select one of the official girls and noble ladies, and she will be named a princess. No one knows your current name, niece. , Your Majesty said, if you can enter the palace for selection, it must be a sure thing."

"Xiqiang mission? Hefan? Princess?" Daiyu smiled mockingly: "It sounds good." The topic changed quickly: "Since there is such a good thing, why don't you let the third sister go? Or, the second sister Elder sister? Fourth younger sister?"

Mrs. Wang's complexion changed, and she said with a smirk: "The eldest girl is joking. How can they compare with you?"

Daiyu said coldly, "Then what about Sister Bao and Sister Qin? Really, aren't they as good as Daiyu?"

Mrs. Wang's face became even more ugly: "How can they go?"

"If they can't go, can Daiyu go?" Daiyu finally lowered her face: "I'm afraid, the old lady and aunt are not willing to take their own girls, so it's okay to take me, an orphan who has no father and no mother, as the top of the vat." No. Old lady, even you think so, don't you..."

"Miss, how can you blame your grandmother, the old lady too..." Mrs. Wang wanted to say more, but Jia Mu suddenly said: "Okay, Zheng's daughter-in-law, you are clumsy and clumsy, so let's say less sentence."

Mrs. Wang was reprimanded, so she had no choice but to keep silent.

Jia Mu looked at Daiyu and sighed softly: "You all go down, let me have a few words with Yu'er alone."

Mrs. Wang still wanted to speak, but Mother Jia raised her voice again: "Go down. Feng girl stay."

Mrs. Wang led a group of people down in despair.

Daiyu turned her face to one side, and gently wiped away the tears that fell down her face.

"Yu'er, are you blaming me?" Mother Jia said with a wry smile.

"Yu'er doesn't dare." Daiyu said: "I'm just a little disappointed. I thought that my parents died, and only the old lady really loved me, but I didn't expect that it is still the case."

Sister Feng was in a hurry and wanted to speak, but was glanced at by Jia Mu, so she had to keep silent.

"Min'er, Min'er..." Jia's mother shed tears when she mentioned Jia Min, "Even for Min'er's sake, I, an old woman, can't helplessly send you to the fire pit."

Daiyu was stunned when she heard the words, and stared at Jia Mu in a daze: "Old lady..."

Mother Jia let out a long sigh, remained silent for a long time, and said angrily: "But, the empress in the palace is pressing her hard, and there is still that thing for consumption..." After a long while, she sighed: "But Yu'er, you must know that my whole life has been spent. No matter what happens, grandma will never abandon you, she would rather risk her life to protect you, otherwise I will not be worthy of Miner's spirit in heaven."

Daiyu immediately burst into tears, she got up and knelt down and said, "Daiyu is ignorant, she offended the old lady..."

Sister Feng stepped forward and helped her up: "Sister Lin, the old lady loves her the most in her heart. Just now, the old lady deliberately acted for others to see. If she didn't, how could she lose her vigilance."

"Sister Feng..." Daiyu sighed softly, "Daiyu was wrong."

"Oh, I'm afraid it's not your fault. It must be Yun girl who told you something." Jiamu pulled Daiyu over.

"Old lady, you already know..."

"I let her hear it on purpose, and let her come to see you." Mother Jia wiped her tears, smiled, and said again: "Yu'er, before the imperial decree for you to participate in the selection is issued, you can turn around. You should leave the capital immediately."

Daiyu was taken aback: "Old lady, what do you mean..."

"You said you were going to guard the tomb for your parents, and go back to Gusu first." Jia Mu said, "I have already made arrangements for you, and Sister Feng and I have also discussed it. Let Jia Yun in the back porch take you away." , the sooner the better. Wait for the imperial decree, if you are not in Beijing, there is nothing you can do. There are quite a lot of ladies in Beijing, so why go to Gusu to find you again?"

"Then old lady, then you..." Daiyu said, "Aren't you going to be implicated?"

"At that time, the old lady and I will both push and don't know, so what can we do?" Sister Feng smiled and said, "Don't worry. When the weather calms down, it will be the same when you come back. So now, you still have to cooperate with me and the old lady." It’s better for the wife to continue playing the trick, so they can’t be suspicious anymore, huh?”

Sister Feng whispered something in her ear, and Daiyu nodded.

Mrs. Wang paced back and forth anxiously outside, but Yuanyang Amber was so tightly blocked outside that she couldn't hear what the people in the room were saying.

"In that case, for grandma, Yu'er, go." Daiyu's trembling and tearful voice sounded.

"Yu'er, that's a good thing. You go there. First, there is nothing wrong with our house. Second, you are an honor yourself." This was Jia Mu's voice.

"I don't want to hear any more, you go." Daiyu choked up and said, "I want to stay alone for a while."

"Think about it yourself. In a few days, the imperial decree will arrive." The door creaked open, and Jiamu wiped her tears, looked at Mrs. Wang, and went away without saying a word.

Mrs. Wang was startled, and her face was full of sadness in cooperation, but she couldn't help but be happy in her heart. This is really a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.

In the early morning mist, in the alley at the back door of the Lin Mansion, a green-draped carriage parked quietly without blinking.

The door opened quietly, and a slender figure in a hood and veil came out accompanied by several nuns and maidservants, and got into the carriage.

The accompanying man was riding on the horse, his face was fair and handsome, but his expression was heavy. Seeing that they were all in the carriage, he walked away.

The carriage rolled up, drove through the alleyway, and headed towards the city gate.

And almost at the same time, the several pairs of eyes that were staring secretly disappeared, but each sent the message in different directions.

In the Prince's Mansion of Beijing, Shui Rong was wiping his sword with a piece of white silk, the light of the sword was cold, reflecting his face like ice.

In the past few days, he has been secretly arranging troops, and everything is proceeding in an orderly manner according to his calculations.This matter is big or small, according to Shui Rong's plan, it has no effect on Daiyu, so he didn't intend to let Daiyu know.

"My lord, it seems that the empress is putting pressure on Jia's mansion through Concubine Yuan... I'm afraid it's because the drunkard's intention is not to drink... The crown prince will know the news immediately. Shall we help Miss Lin get out?" Qi Han frowned.

Shui Rong snorted coldly: "If I help her, both jade and stone will be destroyed. The prince is good at tricks. If I use the bright one, he wants me to commit the crime of resisting the decree. If I use the dark one, he can get a glimpse of my energy." With a light breath: "Qi Han, you're right, I was acting emotionally." While speaking, he had already lifted the saber on the table: "Let's go."

"My lord is..."

"Take her back." Shui Rong said coldly, flicking his white clothes, he went out.

It is possible to hurt her, but there is no other choice.

Maybe, she still has a trust in herself, doesn't she.

The carriage rumbled through the countryside.

Daiyu leaned against the car wall and sighed softly.Since I left the capital, my heart felt like a heavy stone was crushing it, but it was even heavier.If you can't escape, what should you do? If you escape, what will Auntie and the others do?

The more I think about it, the stronger the anxiety in my heart.

"Miss, don't think too much." Zijuan said: "It will be fine. The lady is protected by the master and wife, so she will be safe and sound."

Dai Yu nodded hastily, this relief was of no use at all, she closed her eyes slightly, her brows were still tightly furrowed.

There was a horse neighing, shrill and ear-piercing, and the chaotic sound of horse hoofs was overflowing from all sides.Startled, Daiyu suddenly opened her eyes, and then she sighed softly.

I don't know what I have to face and what it will be.

Jia Yun was also taken aback, a group of people surrounded them from both sides, trapping all their carriages and horses.The leading man is dressed in white with a sword hanging from his waist

The green horse sitting on the seat, with a clear and handsome face, and a cold expression in his deep eyes, as awe-inspiring as a god, Jia Yun was so frightened that he rolled off the saddle and got off the horse.

Shui Rong didn't look at him, but stared fixedly at the curtain of the carriage, a few words spilled from her thin lips: "Miss Lin, I can't go."

The voice was too familiar, Daiyu closed her eyes gently, it turned out that he brought someone to stop her, a bit of bitterness slowly melted away in her heart, then she sighed again, opened the curtain of the car, slowly got out of the car, calmly Looking up at him on the horse, he folded his knees in a salute: "Little girl pays tribute to the lord."

Wang Momo, Zijuan and Xueyan knew that something was wrong, so they also got out of the car.

"Miss Lin, I'm very sorry. You can't leave now."

The moment their eyes met, those clear but cold eyes pierced his chest like needles, causing a dull pain, but Shui Rong still said these words firmly.

Daiyu looked at him quietly: "Why can't you go!"

"Miss already knows the reason, why bother to ask." Shui Rong jumped off the horse and took a few steps closer.

"That's why you came here to stop me." Daiyu tried her best to calm down, "You want to take me back, do you have a job?"

This sentence once again cut a knife in my heart.

Before I met her face to face, I was still betting that she would still have some trust in me, but now, in her cold eyes, there was nothing, and she asked herself if she wanted to take her back to deal with business.

"It is so, so what if it is not?" Shui Rong's voice was a little hoarse, as he stared at him closely, in his originally calm and deep eyes, there seemed to be a monstrous huge wave overturning,

"I understand." Daiyu sighed lightly: "Anyone, in the eyes of the prince, is just a pawn, right?"

"Chess piece?" Shui Rong clenched his fist lightly, suppressing the sharp pain in his heart, looked at her quietly, and suddenly laughed softly, the laughter was gloomy, and he lowered his voice and whispered in her ear: "This is you." In my heart, right?"

"Yes." Daiyu's heart was shocked, but she still answered without hesitation.

Shui Rong suddenly stretched out his hand, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, he took her into the carriage without hesitation.

The curtain fell, and only two people remained.

Daiyu was startled and wanted to struggle, Shui Rong touched her acupuncture points with her backhand, and her limbs softened immediately: "My lord, don't do this."

"Anyway, in your heart, I'm already so unbearable." The water-soluble breath burned Daiyu's ears and said, "I don't mind getting worse."

"Do you really want me to hate you?" Daiyu closed her eyes weakly, her small body trembling.

Her soft and trembling body made Shui Rong's heart soften and ache again. He looked at her for a long time, his eyes were oppressive and suffocating.

At this moment, there was another sound of horses coming, and Yuwen Chengyan's voice sounded: "This hall is ordered to chase down the chariot of the Lin family."

Shui Rong let Daiyu go unhurriedly, and didn't look at her, but said lazily: "Your Highness, it's a coincidence."

Yuwen Chengyan was a little surprised that Shui Rong came so quickly, but a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "What a coincidence, it turns out that the Northern King is also here."

Shui Rong got out of the car, pretending to be confused, and said, "His Royal Highness, with such a big noise, are you trying to arrest the criminals?"

"No, but it's almost the same." Yuwen Chengyan glanced inside the car and said, "The king of the North may not know that the imperial decree has been issued. This girl Lin is on the list of candidates for reconciliation, but she escaped against the decree. It is to resist the decree." No respect, so I was ordered to take her back."

In the car, although Daiyu couldn't move, she was startled when she heard this sentence.

Shui Rong frowned: "Escape? Where do you start?" He smiled softly: "This king just brought beauties out of the country for fun, so there is no such thing as escape. If you want to escape, why bring so many people?"

His bland answer made Daiyu slightly lower her eyelashes, unable to tell what it was like in her heart.

In the end, he still misunderstood him. He came in such a hurry to rescue himself, lest he commit the crime of resisting the decree?

"Really?" Yuwen Chengyan raised his eyebrows.

Shui Rong stood with his hands behind his back, and said indifferently: "If His Highness doubts, why not bring Rong back to the Holy Master for punishment!"

Yuwen Chengyan looked suspiciously at the guards of the royal palace around him, feeling in his heart that this Shui Rong was not trying to help her escape. In a flash, his thoughts had changed a few times. Now that Shui Rong has won the trust of his father, it is better to avoid confrontation Alright, thinking of this, he smiled lightly: "Bei Wang was joking, since this is the case, it is a misunderstanding, but... since this girl is on the list, it is inevitable that Bei Wang will take care of her and go out of Beijing privately. inappropriate."

Shui Rong smiled slightly: "I would like to follow His Royal Highness's orders."

"Sigh." Yuwen Chengyan sighed suddenly, staring at Shui Rong with sharp eyes: "I also know a thing or two about Bei Wang's thoughts about this girl, but if it's really this girl... I'm afraid it's an imperial decree." ah."

Shui Rong said lightly: "His Royal Highness is overthinking. If it is true that the imperial decree is so, Rong must give up love to protect the whole community."

The corner of Yuwen Chengyan's mouth twitched into a sinister smile: "That's the best."

These few words are enough for Daiyu to hear.The little hand trembled slightly, and her heart suddenly became cold, and the coldness spread to her limbs, and she closed her eyes weakly.
