Narada world

Chapter 96 Sudden realization

The loquat forest was as quiet as ever, and Yi Qingyu was meditating alone. A wooden wind chime on the courtyard porch of the bamboo hut was rustling against the breeze. It was made by willow and bamboo herself. Accompanied by a little music, it will be more comfortable.

Although Yi Qingyu has lived in seclusion for many years, she has never lost the habit of practicing martial arts. She lives alone, drinking and practicing martial arts in her spare time, and occasionally going out to buy food.After the willow and bamboo came, I planted a vegetable field next to the bamboo forest. Although the melons and fruits have not yet bloomed, it is also a kind of satisfaction to watch the green seedlings break through the ground every day. I don’t know when it will start. It's starting to taste good.

Liu Zhu is full of kindness to everything in the world, even if it is just a small animal that strays into the loquat forest by mistake, she treats it gently.Since she came, the loquat forest has been like a paradise. Occasionally, a few wild flowers bloom, and birds often fly by, standing on her shoulders.

"Cough, cough, cough~" Her body was deteriorating, and she often felt tired. Perhaps she was always drowsy at the end of her life. If she could really sleep forever by Qing Yu's side, it wouldn't be a bad idea.

Yi Qingyu heard her cough, slowly opened his eyes, walked to her side, stretched out his hand, "Let me see~"

"I'm fine~" Liu Zhu smiled, but still stretched out her hand, letting Yi Qingyu feel her pulse.These days, they are used to being with each other quietly, whenever Liu Zhu coughs, Yi Qingyu will take her pulse.

The pulse condition is weak, the air flow is not smooth, the body is not as good as before, maybe her lung disease has worsened again.Without saying a word, Yi Qingyu turned around and went to boil medicine for her. She went out to find these precious medicines herself.

Qing Yu is always so silent, staying by her side these days is the happiest time for Liu Zhu in so many years, she is already satisfied.

"Kang Dang!" Liu Zhu suddenly heard the sound of porcelain smashing, she rushed over and found that Qing Yu's fingers were burned red by the medicine pot, "Qing Yu~" She took Yi Qing Yu's hand and cared for it in the palm of her heart , "Why are you so careless? Don't you know that you need to put a piece of cloth in the medicine jar? It's not the first time you boil medicine, so careless."

Liu Zhu couldn't help but blame her, Yi Qingyu smiled fearlessly, "I'm thinking about something."

"What are you thinking about so preoccupied?" Liu Zhu frowned, looking at the burnt area, two blisters appeared, she couldn't bear Qing Yu to have the slightest pain.

"I think the person in my heart was once like you, full of kindness towards everything in the world." Yi Qingyu sighed slightly, retracted his hand, and carefully poured out the boiled medicine.

Liu Zhu was silent and didn't know how to answer the conversation for a while, she was really worried that some of her habits would be seen by Qing Yu and reveal her identity if she continued to get along like this.

"Drink the medicine." Yi Qingyu took the medicine, afraid of scalding the willows and bamboos, blew on it a few times before handing it to her.

The medicine was very bitter, Liu Zhu frowned and finished drinking it, Yi Qingyu suddenly produced a sweet red fruit from his cuff, with a slight smile, "Here."

She spoke concisely, but Liu Zhu understood her intentions. This is a wild fruit in the mountains, very sweet and can relieve the bitter taste in her mouth. A warm feeling surged in her heart, and she said "Thank you~."

In fact, where does she still have a bitter feeling, her heart is full of sweetness.It was enough, it was God's favor that she was able to get so close to Qing Yu before she died.

Yi Qingyu turned around with his hands behind his back, feeling someone approaching, and heard the sound of horseshoes in the distance.

"Who trespassed in the loquat forest?" Yi Qingyu shouted coldly, his aura was wide open, in stark contrast to the gentleness before.

The visitor got off his horse and immediately knelt down, "See Princess Cheng, the Empress Dowager has a message for you."

"Get out!" Yi Qingyu turned around indifferently when she heard the Queen Mother's name, not wanting to hear a word.

"Concubine Cheng!" The person who came was still about to step forward, but Yiqingyu waved his sleeves, and the strong internal force caused the person to fall a few feet away, spitting blood, but he still did not give up, and shouted with strength, "The emperor has been poisoned!" , the imperial physician is helpless, the queen mother invites you to return to the palace."

Yi Qingyu stopped, turned around and stared at him, "Really?"

"Even if this slave has the courage to curse the emperor, he will not pass on the Queen Mother's decree." The man held the letter in his hands, knelt on the ground, and did not dare to retreat.

"bring here!"

The man hurriedly knelt forward and handed the letter to Yi Qingyu.It did record Qin Junlan's poisoning, and Yi Qinghuan even begged her to go back, but how could Yan'er be poisoned?

Yiqingyu suddenly remembered that Yiqinghuan lied to herself to enter the palace, but ended up harming Liuzhu. Thinking of this, she couldn't calm down. She tore up the letter and said, "Let Yunjin come to me!"

The visitor curled his lips and didn't dare to say much, so he had to obey the order and leave, rushing back to the palace to report.

Yi Qingyu's originally calm mood became turbulent when she recalled the past again. She was so angry that she slapped a palm on the loquat tree, and the leaves fluttered and fell to the ground.

"Qing Yu, don't be like this..." Liu Zhu lightly tugged at her sleeves, and Yi Qing Yu clenched her fists tightly. Every time she thought of this, she felt that she had killed Liu Zhu, and her mood was hard to calm down for a long time.

Without saying a word, Yi Qingyu jumped up to the branch and stood on a high place, his melodious figure was immersed in sadness.Why hasn't she let go of the past after all these years?Liuzhu looked up at her from a distance, sitting on the steps of the bamboo hut, leaning against the courtyard pillar with her head tilted, staring at Yiqingyu in a trance.

Within two hours, Yunjin came to the loquat forest in person. She wanted to invite Yi Qingyu back to the palace, but the Queen Mother would take the first step, and she was even more surprised that Yi Qingyu didn't believe what the Queen Mother said, and asked her to come. will believe.

"How could Yan'er be poisoned? What happened?"

"It's hard to say, and I don't know the reason. Mother, you should go back to the palace and ask the emperor yourself." Yun Jin looked worried, and sighed slightly. When she saw Liu Zhu, she hesitated to speak, but Xun'er didn't come Are you looking for your mother?

Liu Zhu looked at Yun Jin and was supposed to be happy, but because of their worries, she also worried about Liu Qianxun, she knew something must have happened to Xun'er.I am afraid that all these turmoil is also inseparable from Ling Yu. Could it be that her identity has been exposed?Coming from the Asura sect, one has to meet someone who treats each other sincerely, but her daughter is in a dilemma. I am afraid that her company with Qing Yu will stop here.

"A Ying, I might have to go to the palace." Yi Qingyu turned her head and looked at Liu Zhu with bright eyes, "Don't wander around, wait for me to come back."

Liu Zhu didn't answer, just nodded slightly.

Even if Yiqing Yu got on the horse with Yun Jin, she looked at Liu Zhu worriedly before leaving, feeling inexplicably flustered.What's going on?It's not parting from life and death, but I still don't feel at ease, even reluctant to give up.

This emotion is really redundant.

Watching Qing Yu leave, Liu Zhu reluctantly chased forward a few steps, is she greedy after all?Time flies so quickly, and such a short time is about to say goodbye.

Liu Zhu felt lost, she shouldn't have these extravagant hopes anymore.

As soon as Yi Qingyu left the loquat forest, there were small sounds all around, and a thick man's voice sounded, "Aunt Liu, the princess please go back to Changning Mansion to recuperate." Immediately after several black shadows flew down in front of the bamboo hut, Mo Feng He led a few subordinates and bowed respectfully to Liu Zhu.

"Let me tidy up for a while~" Liu Zhu turned around calmly, they came really fast.

Reluctantly, she took a closer look at the bamboo hut, folded Qingyu's washed clothes, stacked them neatly and put them in the cabinet, and divided the whole jar of loquat brew into small pots, which Qingyu often watched. Wherever she got it, she had the habit of drinking every day, Liu Zhu already knew it very well.After packing everything, she carefully wiped the corners of the table, doors and windows again.

Before leaving, she went to her own tomb again, took off the mask and placed it next to the grave.This time, don't be afraid that it will be difficult to meet each other in this life, so let her leave Aying's mask. In the future, Qingyu may still remember her past companionship, hoping to give her a warm memory.

After tidying up for half an hour, none of the people who came to pick her up urged her, but just quietly waited aside, the carriages and horses had already been arranged.

In the end, she still walked out of the bamboo hut. Before getting into the carriage, she looked at the loquat forest again reluctantly, and left with a heavy heart.

When Yi Qingyu and Yun Jin hurried to the palace, Qin Junlan was discussing important matters with several generals, Bai Ruoxi and Yi Ziquan couldn't die in vain, Yu Guo's offense to her had already violated her bottom line.She already had the ambition to dominate the world, but she was waiting for an opportunity, a flash point. Right now, Bai Yifei hated Yu Country, and she was hurt by Ling Yu, so it was the best time to plan an expedition.

"Most of Yu Kingdom's elite and powerful soldiers are gathered in Zhengyi. If I want to take Yu Kingdom, I have to take its territory bit by bit." Qin Junlan looked at the map of the world, the domineering king reflected in his eyes, Even though her body is broken, she is still a strong one, the supreme being who cannot be violated.

"Your Majesty, I feel that the frontier city can be the first to break through, and give Yuguo a disarm." Bai Yifei is good at marching and fighting, and is also good at deploying troops. He is a rare talent among generals.

"The minister seconded the proposal, and in order to prevent changes in the Qing and Luo countries, the minister suggested that the frontier fortresses of the two countries should be transferred to prevent them from joining forces to fight against Hebei." The speaker was Zhao Xi, a famous general of the dynasty. He has joined the army for three generations and fulfilled his duties.

Qin Junlan lightly tapped the table and locked her forehead deeply. Despite her physical discomfort, she was still able to handle state affairs calmly. Her weakness should not be seen by the courtiers, let alone make people think that her body was on the verge of collapse at this juncture.

"What General Zhao said is very true. In recent years, Luo and Qing have been very close to Yu Kingdom. In the previous disaster in Yuzhou, Qi County cut off our water source, causing the people to suffer. Qi County is a border town of Yu Kingdom. We are so close, why don't we take it first. The garrisons of Qing and Luo each sent [-] more soldiers and horses to guard them. The [-] garrisons of Fengcheng stood still first, and first mobilized the garrison of Yuzhou to send troops to Qi County. How will Yu respond!" After Qin Junlan finished speaking, he inserted the flag into the landmark of Qixian County. This disaster and tragedy will eventually have to be paid for by someone.

She wants to let everyone in the world know and plot her fate!

Yuan Xi didn't dare to report until she finished discussing state affairs, "Your Majesty, Princess Cheng is back."

"Hurry up!" Qin Junlan knew that Yun Jin must be worried that she invited her aunt back, so she straightened her clothes, trying to make herself look radiant and refreshed.

But these can't escape Qing Yu's eyes.

"You don't need to pretend to be strong when you're in front of me." Yi Qingyu had already seen through her before she got close to her.

"Auntie~ I'm actually fine, cough~~" Before finishing speaking, she coughed lightly, Yun Jin nervously stepped forward and stroked her back, "Mother and concubine are here, so don't be brave, There are no foreign ministers."

"Look at you, you always make a fuss, and you even disturb your aunt. Haven't I been fine in the past few days?"

"Your poison can't be understood for a day, and I can't feel at ease." The tenderness and sweetness towards Qin Junlan in Yunjin's eyes attracted Yi Qingyu's attention. This kind of concerned tone and eyes didn't seem to be what a younger sibling should have. demeanor.

But Yi Qingyu didn't say much about Qin Junlan's injury, and focused on feeling her pulse, "Jin'er has already explained the matter to me briefly, I don't want to ask in detail, and I don't want to be troubled, I just want to know how you got hit by this poison ?”

"I've been thinking about it for a long time but I haven't figured it out, and I don't know when it happened." Of course, Qin Junlan also suspected Ling Yu, but that day, the wine was mixed, and the loquat wine had been tested and not poisoned, and she hadn't eaten a mouthful of food. It is not clear how Ling Yu poisoned her.

"Your pulse condition seems to be stable, but it fluctuates a lot, sometimes weak and sometimes rapid." Yi Qingyu stroked Qin Junlan's arms to check, but there was nothing strange about it, "Apart from abdominal cramps, do you have other discomforts?"

"I always feel that my whole internal organs are throbbing. Recently, my mood has calmed down a little bit, but it was a little more serious a few days ago. I imagine that the person who poisoned me may not have wanted my life, but probably wanted to torture me." If it was Ling Yu's poison, Qin Junlan really didn't know why she was doing this, restraining herself?or something else?

"You sit down."

With luck in both palms, Yi Qingyu gently pressed down from Qin Junlan's neck to her chest to her abdomen, and then gently pushed her zhenqi in from her back, as if exploring and healing her wounds.This breath adjustment reduced Qin Junlan's pain a lot, and his body suddenly felt comfortable.

"Mother concubine, who is Huangjie?" In the palace, Yun Jin called her mother concubine according to the etiquette system, but outside the palace, Yi Qingyu never heard the word mother concubine, and just called her mother.

"The symptom is obviously poisoning, but I can't find any traces of poisoning, and I can't even force the poisonous blood. I'm afraid it's..." Yi Qingyu didn't dare to guess, let alone draw a conclusion. She wrote a prescription, Asking Yuanxi to treat Qin Junlan twice a day, even if it can't detoxify, it can reduce the severe pain, and maybe even suppress the poison a little bit.

"Auntie, what did you see?" Qin Junlan's face was lightly made up today, but this decorated face couldn't hide from Yi Qingyu's eyes. She sighed slightly and stroked Qin Junlan's wrist, "I still have a relationship with you." Jin'er is a family member, Yan'er, you really don't need to hold back in front of us." She had already seen that Qin Junlan was holding back.

"Auntie...cough cough cough ~~" A violent cough finally spit out the sweet blood she had endured for a long time. Looking at the blood she spit out from her head, the color was normal and there was no venom mixed in it, further confirming her guess.

"It's okay, Yan'er, my aunt is here. I won't let you have any trouble. I have sent a letter to Guiguzi. He will return to the valley in three days. At that time, my aunt will go to Shennonggu to find a cure for you." Yi Qingyu He supported her head, and pointed to the strength of the main artery between her neck with two fingers, but when he opened the collar, he saw the pendant on her neck.

Yi Qingyu had never seen Qin Junlan wear anything around her neck, as if some kind of force was pulling her, she picked up Qin Junlan's pendant from her clothes, and stared at the small bamboo whistle, she was stunned.Her hands began to tremble. She was afraid that her eyes would be dazzled, so she raised her palms a little higher, and when she opened it, the character "Yu" was clearly visible.

For a moment, Yi Qingyu forgot everything, just held the bamboo whistle with both hands, the scene when he made this bamboo whistle appeared in his mind, and Liuzhu cried with joy when he received this gift.She suddenly became flustered and became a little confused, "Wh, where did this come from, where did this come from??"

She held Qin Junlan's hand, feeling out of control like never before.Seeing that Yi Qingyu was a little strange, Qin Junlan took the bamboo whistle from her neck and handed it to her.

"This is what Xun'er gave me." Even if she was angry, she still took what she gave her and carried it close to her body, which was considered a kind of thought.

"Where did she get this, how could she have this?" Yi Qingyu became more and more excited, with bursts of hope in his heart, but he didn't dare to think about other things, for fear that the joy would be empty.

"Xun'er said it was a talisman given by her mother, and she has carried it with her since she was a child."

"Her mother?" Yi Qingyu was stunned, A Ying? ?She began to pace back and forth, but her eyes kept looking at the bamboo whistle, she just kept repeating, "Liu Qianxun... Liu Qianxun... Liu! Her surname is Liu..." Why didn't she discover this detail? ?

Why did she never suspect such an obvious clue?After more than 20 years of separation, she has never seen Liu Zhu's body?Is she still alive?No, but if she died, this thing would definitely not appear in other people's place.

But if she didn't die, how could she not come back to find herself, take a ten thousand step back and say, if A Ying is Liu Zhu, why didn't she recognize herself?Countless reasons sounded in Yi Qingyu's heart.

"Auntie, what's the matter with you?"

"Mother Concubine, are you alright?" Yun Jin and Qin Junlan looked at each other, puzzled.

"Yan'er, this is a token of love I gave to Zhu'er? I won't admit it wrong, this character feather is my name!" How could Yi Qingyu fail to recognize something made by himself?

"What...she is Liu Zhu's daughter?? Liu Zhu is not dead..." Qin Junlan was shocked, she didn't expect Liu Qianxun to have such a story, how much did she hide from herself?

"Where is Liu Qianxun, where did she go?"

Qin Junlan sighed softly, and said calmly, "I'm afraid I'm going back to Changning Mansion of Yu Kingdom."

"Yu Country...Changning Mansion...!" Yi Qingyu murmured to herself, then ran away, she wanted to prove it, she wanted to unravel Aying's veil with her own hands, and find out!

She hated herself, why didn't she see A Ying's face clearly earlier, why she didn't take off her mask after being by her side for so long!
