I was a princess in ancient times
Chapter 74 3 in 1
It is wrong for a man to hide the fact that he has a wife at home and marry a wife and have children in An Ye, but Zhang Yuanwai's daughter is completely innocent. Why would he give up his life for someone else's fault?
Yu Heng, who was listening intently to the Taoist priests' words, felt the pain in his arm, only to realize that Ji Xinxue's face was extremely ugly. Even though the weather was not too hot, there was faint sweat on his head.
He hurriedly took out a clean handkerchief from his sleeve pocket, and wiped the sweat off Ji Xinxue's forehead, "What's wrong?"
Ji Xinxue raised her head and looked at Yu Heng who was half a head taller than him and who was caring about him with all her attention. The fear in her eyes grew deeper and deeper.
If he suddenly told Yu Heng his real gender, would Yu Heng be like Zhang Yuanwai's daughter, who looked normal at the time and made people think that she had accepted the truth calmly, but in the dead of night she was
Just thinking of this possibility made Ji Xinxue feel so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe.
"Ash?"
Yu Heng's complexion changed drastically, and he bent down following Ji Xinxue who was squatting with his hands on his chest, "Are you having heart palpitations again?"
It's a shame that he clearly noticed this point and asked Ji Xinxue specifically, but he believed it easily because Ji Xinxue explained it with other reasons, and didn't let the imperial physician treat Ji Xinxue carefully.
Ji Xinxue's eyes turned black in pain, but he could clearly hear the anxiety in Yu Heng's tone. He tried his best to keep calm, "It's okay."
Little did he know that the more he tried to pretend nothing had happened, the greater the contrast between his pale face, the cold sweat on his forehead and his calm tone, the more unreliable he was.
Huo Yu walked quickly to the two of them, "Let me take a look."
He lifted Ji Xinxue's eyelids and stared at Ji Xinxue's pupils, then put his hand on Ji Xinxue's wrist, "No poison."
He can only watch this, not cure illnesses.
Ji Xinxue fell powerlessly into Yu Heng's arms, and said slowly, "I'm fine, just take it easy."
I am afraid that speaking too fast or too loud will cause the pain in my chest again.
Yu Heng silently tightened his grip on Ji Xinxue's shoulder, "We're going back to the city right now."
It doesn't matter if the city gate is locked, no one in Anye dares to stop the princess and the county king outside the city, at worst, he will be impeached in Chang'an, these are not as important as Ji Xinxue's safety.
Ji Xinxue shook his head, he was no stranger to the tingling feeling in his chest.
After staying up late or even all night for various reasons in his previous life, he also felt this kind of stinging pain, but it was not as severe as this time.
The leading Taoist priest Dan Ze suddenly said, "My opinion is that Uncle Yi Ming is good at Qihuang, he can diagnose and treat pilgrims, and there are herbs that my brothers and sisters usually pick on the mountain and medicinal materials bought from Anye City."
Hesitation appeared on Yu Heng's face, he was unwilling to hand over Ji Xinxue's safety to an unfamiliar Taoist priest, but Ji Xinxue looked so uncomfortable, if he rushed back to An Ye directly, Yu Heng was afraid that Ji Xinxue would suddenly have heart palpitations again on the road.
Yu'er Guan has medicine at least.
"Okay." Ji Xinxue pulled the handkerchief in Yu Heng's hand with her weak palm, wiped the sweat off her forehead carelessly, and smiled brightly at Yu Heng, "I'm really fine."
The Taoist persuaded Yu Heng and Ji Xinxue, "Uncle Yi Ming is just checking the pulse of the pilgrims, and he will not give random needles or force the pilgrims to use medicine."
The rest of the Taoists followed suit to persuade the two of them.
"Yes, many serious illnesses are caused by minor illnesses. Since there are already symptoms of discomfort, it is better to treat them earlier."
"Uncle Yi Ming is a free clinic and will not charge any fees. If a pilgrim needs to drink medicine in the Taoist temple, he will not be charged for the medicine that can be picked on the mountain, and the rest of the medicine will only be charged at the same price as the medicine shop in the city."
"If the pilgrims leave immediately, no matter whether they are traveling at night or riding a horse or riding a car, it will cause heart palpitations. I am afraid that the little lady will feel uncomfortable on the road."
Yu Heng was persuaded by the Taoist priests, and Ji Xinxue also wanted to reassure Yu Heng, they finally agreed to find a Taoist priest named Yi Ming to give Ji Xinxue a pulse diagnosis.
A group of people entered the Yu'er Temple through the side door, and the senior brother of the Taoist priests, that is, Dan Ze, who first chatted with Ji Xinxue and others, led the way for them.
The rest of the Taoist priests carried the man who was tied and gagged and was still struggling wildly to the place where the Taoist priests lived.
Ji Xinxue stopped where she was, looking at the man who was tied up and carried away for a long time.He could almost guess the man's story from the Taoist priests' words, "Why did he become like this?"
But he couldn't be satisfied and guessed, and wanted to know more exact content from the Taoist priest.
A groan appeared on Danze's face.
The man came back three months after leaving Anye. He didn't notice the complicated eyes of the people in Anye when they looked at him, and went straight to the 'home'.
This time, Zhang Yuanwai's broom got stuck on the man's face.
He told the man to get out of Anye, he was not allowed to disturb his beloved daughter, and he was not allowed to see his grandson and granddaughter.
The man was surprised to hear that Zhang Yuanwai's daughter drowned in her arms on the night he left. He subconsciously thought that Zhang Yuanwai was lying, that Zhang Lan, who had already decided to forgive him, went back on his word and lied to him together with Zhang Yuanwai.
He guarded Zhang Yuanwai's door for three days without eating or drinking. Zhang Yuanwai secretly asked a neighbor to tell the man about his daughter's drowning.
The man still refused to believe what his neighbor said. As more and more people said the same thing as his neighbor, the man suddenly yelled at the person who told him the truth. The cemetery of Yuanwai's family.
Zhang Lan's tomb is indeed there, and it was erected by Zhang Yuanwai's son.
'The Tomb of Changjielan'
The newborn child was also buried in the same place as Zhang Lan.
"Member Zhang is kind-hearted, thinking of his old love, he sent someone to follow him from a distance, and when he passed out in front of his daughter's grave, he was brought back to the city, and sent to the property he bought when he first came to Anye." Speaking of this, the pity in Danze's eyes is even worse.
Immediately after waking up, the man asked the servants around him when he would be able to go home, expressing that he couldn't wait to see Zhang Lan and his youngest son.
The servant immediately noticed that something was wrong with the man, and answered a few nonsense words that were full of flaws. The man soon realized that something was wrong, walked out of the room, and found that he was in Anye at this time, overjoyed, and immediately went to Zhang Yuanwai's house See Zhang Lan and the youngest son.
Zhang Yuanwai was no longer willing to entangle with the man too much, and ordered someone to send the man who was unconscious in front of Zhang Lan's tomb back to Anye. The man returns home, and then returns to Anye.
The man knocked on the door of Zhang Yuanwai's residence for a long time without getting a response, so he could only knock on the neighbor's door, and asked the neighbor in a panic why there was no one in Zhang Yuanwai's residence.
The neighbors saw Zhang Yuan’s family next door from envy to other people’s ruins, and hated the man deeply. Seeing the man’s emaciated appearance and unfaithful panic, he only lamented that good fortune made others, and advised the man not to linger on the past, it is better to return home as soon as possible Home.
Zhang Lan has passed away, and Zhang Yuanwai is unwilling to have anything to do with the man again. The man might as well let Zhang Yuanwai go and return home to treat his wife who has been neglected for many years.
The neighbor told the reality that the man couldn't face it. The man was silent for a long time, and went to the Zhang family's cemetery again to be carried back to Anye by his servants.
After waking up, the man forgot all about the past, happily went to Zhang Yuanwai's residence to find Zhang Lan and his youngest son, and then the people in Anye explained what he had avoided, so he rushed to Zhang Lan. In front of the tomb until he passed out from exhaustion and passed out in such a cycle.
Even if Zhang Yuan couldn't bear it, he took his grandson and granddaughter to visit the man himself, told the man that Zhang Lan was dead when the man just woke up, and deliberately lied to the man that Zhang Lan did not commit suicide but died of illness, and allowed the man to visit his grandson every now and then With his granddaughter, the man was still repeating the process of going to Zhang Lan's tomb until he was exhausted and passed out, and when he woke up, he forgot everything before again, and couldn't wait to see Zhang Lan.
The third month after the man returned to Anye, and the sixth month after Zhang Lan passed away, the man went crazy.
When he woke up, he didn't ask his servants where they were and when he could see Zhang Lan with joy in his eyes, but shouted "Lan Niang" at the top of his voice, and went straight to the Zhang family's land outside Anye City.
The man's family once took him away, and sent him back in half a month. They took two months to confirm that the man must go to Zhang Lan's tomb every ten days, otherwise he would only go crazy when he went crazy. People who know how to find Zhang Lan will go crazy and try their best to commit suicide.
They handed over the man's property and money in Anye to Zhang Yuanwai, saying that they would be left to the man's children, and gave Yu'er Guan a large sum of incense money, asking the Taoist priests to take care of the man, implying that the Taoist priests can accept the death of the man, but not Accepting that the man is suicide, I am afraid that the governor and his wife will not be able to bear it.
Then only one person was left in Anye City to visit the man every now and then, and the others were sent home and never appeared in Anye again.
Danze shook his head, "Since then, no one has been sent from his family. Brother Cong in Anye City only sent a large amount of incense money every ten days and clothes for him to change three times a day, and never cared about it. His illness. On the contrary, Zhang Yuanwai brought his son, grandson, and granddaughter to visit the man every five days. Although he still refused to forgive the man, he still hoped that the man would return to normal."
"Can he return to normal?" Yu Heng asked.
Danze showed embarrassment, "Uncle Yi Ming said that he has never been insane, and now is the life he wants."
In his opinion, this is something that Master Yi Ming has seen through through Taoism. He has not yet reached his level so he has not seen it through. People who have not practiced Taoism will not understand it, and nine times out of ten they will regard Master Yi Ming as a liar.
After all, when the man just went crazy, his father who was the governor sent him a steady stream of famous doctors to diagnose and treat the man. They all said that the man was completely insane, and there was no cure for it.
Ji Xinxue began to feel uncomfortable in her heart again, and quietly opened her mouth to control the frequency of her breathing, so as not to scare Yu Heng again.
Ever since he came to the fief, he has been thinking day and night about how to confess his gender to Yu Heng, so that Yu Heng's anger can be lightened. He suddenly heard the tragedy of the man and Zhang Lan's deception, and he really couldn't help but think about it.
Although the relationship between him and Yu Heng is different from the relationship between the man and Zhang Lan, he and Yu Heng have a verbal marriage contract.
Even when the verbal marriage contract was made, Yu Heng entrusted the Prince of Qinghe County to the Jiawang Mansion to propose marriage just because he wanted to avoid him being selected as the concubine princess, but their marriage contract has lasted for two years. Treat him as a real fiancée.
From Ji Xinxue's point of view, the only thing better than the man and Zhang Lan's current situation between him and Yu Heng is that he and Yu Heng have no children.
So when Yu Heng can't think about it, he will only hurt himself, no child can hurt bah bah bah!
Yu Heng was worried about Ji Xinxue's palpitations. Although he listened to Danze's words, he also took the initiative to ask questions, but most of his attention was on Ji Xinxue, and Ji Xinxue's complexion became more and more ugly, and the sweat on his forehead became more and more , and his eyes also appear to be in a trance.
He stretched out his hand to support Ji Xinxue, and calmly slowed down his walking speed. He secretly rejoiced that he didn't insist on taking Ji Xinxue down the mountain and back to the city immediately when he was outside the side door. With Ji Xinxue's current state, he must not be able to accept the bumps of the carriage.
Danze also noticed Ji Xinxue's abnormality, and deliberately took Ji Xinxue and others into the place where the surrounding people seek medical treatment through the back door, and took them directly to the place where Master Yi Ming usually had his pulse. Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng compensated for being frightened.
Soon, Xiao Daotong, who was only in the year of Zongjiao, ran over and said solemnly, "Senior Brother Danze, you are on the wrong road. Guests who come to seek medical treatment have to line up at the front door."
Danze touched Xiaodaotong Fangzheng's forehead, and said in a gentle voice, "This little lady has sudden palpitations, I'm afraid I can't wait long, you go and explain the situation to Master Yi Ming."
Xiao Daotong nodded obediently, strode away, and ran back panting in a short while, asking Danze to bring the pilgrims in.
Entering the room through the back door, Ji Xinxue took a deep breath and felt the tangy herbal smell. She didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but she felt that her restless heart had calmed down a lot.
He looked up at the old Taoist who was sitting behind the table, and he presumably was Master Yi Ming who was praised by the Taoist priests.
Danze first went to the old Taoist to salute, and told the old Taoist the whole story of why he brought Ji Xinxue and others to seek medical treatment. He told the old Taoist tactfully that he suspected that Ji Xinxue's heart palpitations were caused by the man.
The old Taoist nodded slowly, his kind eyes turned over Zhongren's face, and finally fell on Ji Xinxue, who was extremely pale, "Looking at Xiangke's face, it seems that he is troubled by insomnia, you might as well take some tranquilizing medicine before going to bed. "
Ji Xinxue nodded, and with Yu Heng's support, walked to the old Taoist and sat down.
Just now, the old Taoist looked at him with almost the same eyes as the imperial physician usually when he was diagnosing the Ping An pulse, and he felt like an orthodox Chinese medicine doctor.
Ji Xinxue stretched out her arms to rest on the soft pillow, "Please ask the Taoist priest for his pulse."
The old Taoist nodded with a smile, put his finger on Ji Xinxue's pulse, closed his eyes and felt it carefully for a while, and asked, "Pilgrim, is it difficult to fall asleep at night, dreamy but easy to wake up, as long as you wake up, you can't fall asleep for a long time, have you opened your eyes?" Waiting for Tianming's troubles?"
Ji Xinxue thought about it for a while, then nodded, "Yes."
"I don't know how long the pilgrim has been troubled by this?" the old Taoist asked.
"Three months ago, I started to have difficulty falling asleep, and it wasn't until recently that I woke up more often." Ji Xinxue smiled wryly.
Since Emperor Changping finally let go of his willingness to let him go to the fief for inspection, he often has trouble falling asleep.
At the beginning, I was thinking about how to get Emperor Changping to agree to Yu Heng coming to the fief with him.Later, I thought about how to confess my gender to Yu Heng in order to get Yu Heng's understanding.
As long as he was lying on the bed, he couldn't help thinking about these things over and over again, and he lost sleep unconsciously.
The old Taoist opened his slightly closed eyes, opened his eyes, took the hand on Ji Xinxue's wrist to check the pulse, and said in a warm voice, "According to the old Taoist, the palpitations of the pilgrims are not heart diseases, but the symptoms of palpitations appear when the heart is stagnant and difficult to pour out. After going down the mountain, find a pharmacy and grab ten sedatives for ten days to relieve fatigue and get rid of heart palpitations. If the family is rich, you can also take some calming tonics, and let the maid read the Qingjing Sutra before going to bed to fall asleep."
Ji Xinxue nodded thoughtfully, no wonder the imperial doctor who asked for Ping Anmai always wanted to prescribe tonics for him. Maybe he had seen his symptoms a long time ago, because he was not sure why he was depressed, and he was afraid of getting into trouble. Dare to speak out, so I never said it clearly.
If the imperial physician had said earlier that he could sleep peacefully by taking tonics, he would not have rejected the imperial physician because he felt that the medicine was three-point poisonous, and there was no need to accumulate poison when he was not sick.
Seeing Ji Xinxue sitting there with a pale face, looking well-behaved and pitiful, the old Taoist couldn't help persuading him a few more words, "There are definite and variable things in the world, so let it be. Pilgrims are still young, so you might as well tell them what's on your mind." With elders and friends, don’t go into a dead end alone.”
Ji Xinxue nodded with a wry smile, "Thank you, Daoist, I understand."
He can only tell Aye and Fenglang what is on his mind, tell Aye, Aye may not be able to understand his worries, he will probably find a way to confess to Fenglang for him, this is not the result he wants.
Telling Feng Lang that he was hesitant about this matter, and he had just heard about the tragedy of the crazy man and Zhang Lan in the view of Yu'er who cheated, and he didn't know how to speak up.
Seeing that Ji Xinxue was clearly saying "I know", but the sadness between his brows was more intense, the old Taoist sighed in his heart, got up and went to another table in the room to write a prescription for calming the nerves, and stopped persuading him.
He can only cure the disease but not the 'heart', so he can only increase the amount of sleeping pills when formulating the prescription, so that Ji Xinxue can sleep peacefully at night, and he can restore his weak body to compete with the 'heart' as soon as possible.
Yu Heng, who was always standing by Ji Xinxue's side, took the prescription with both hands, and handed the purse around his waist to the old Taoist, "I didn't bring much money when I went out in a hurry, and I will order my servants to send incense sticks when I return home."
The old Taoist looked at the clothes of Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng, obviously accepted Yu Heng's purse, and wrote a prescription for medicinal diet for sleeping, and told the two to use less medicine if they could use medicinal diet.
Because of many delays, when Ji Xinxue, Yu Heng, Li Jinhuan and others met, it was completely dark. If Jin Wuwei had not told Li Jinhuan's people that Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng were in Yu'er Temple, Li Jinhuan and others were in a hurry. I had to almost go down the mountain to find someone.
Ji Xinxue had a conversation with the old Taoist. Although she still couldn't untangle her heart, the anxiety in her heart had temporarily calmed down, and her face gradually returned to normal.
He didn't want Li Jinhuan and others to worry about him, so he apologized first when he saw everyone, saying that he and Yu Heng didn't go up the mountain from the main gate, Yu'er was attracted by the scenery at the side gate, and unconsciously forgot the time before arriving until dark .
Yu Heng would never deny what Ji Xinxue had said. He nodded to the people who were asking questions, confirming what Ji Xinxue said.
As the largest and most popular Taoist temple around Anye, Yu'er Temple can not only provide three meals for pilgrims, but also provide accommodation.
Because of the generous money for incense sticks, Ji Xinxue and the others were allocated a separate small courtyard.
Ji Xinxue declined Yan Meng's proposal to sleep with him on the grounds that he would wake up easily at night, and walked towards the main room without looking back under Yan Meng's disappointed gaze.
In addition to writing down a prescription and a recipe for medicinal food, the old Taoist also gave Ji Xinxue three pills, saying that they were homemade tranquilizing medicines. If Ji Xinxue needed them, the Taoist temple could also make Ji Xinxue a soothing decoction.
Ji Xinxue stared at the porcelain bottle of medicine on the table for a long time after washing, but she still didn't reach out her hand and went straight to bed.
Close your eyes, and all kinds of distracting thoughts that have been forced to be suppressed in the bottom of your heart by diverting your attention for a long time come to your mind again.
There are all kinds of reactions that Yu Heng might have after he confessed his gender with Yu Heng that he repeatedly speculated, and there are also various scenes of tragedies caused by scumbags cheating on marriages created by the Taoist priests.
Although the sleepiness was getting deeper and deeper, these distracting thoughts still refused to let him go easily, and they went straight to entangle in his dream, allowing Ji Xinxue to "see" the man and Zhang Lan confessing the concealment in an immersive way, Zhang Lan Accepting the reality with a calm expression, forgiving the man, and asking the man to return to Anye earlier, personally sending the man out, communicating with others as if nothing had happened, washing up step by step, falling asleep, and then quietly opening his eyes in the dead of night, hugging The young son walked into the pond step by step.
Falling into a dream, Ji Xinxue knew that he was dreaming. He didn't want to see the man getting along with Zhang Lan, and he didn't want to see Zhang Lan walking into the pond with her young son in her arms and staring at him with black and white eyes.
Occasionally, the ink hair floating along the water blocked Zhang Lan's calm and terrifying gaze, but it would soon disperse. The young son who had closed his eyes in Zhang Lan's arms also opened his eyes to look at Ji Xinxue. Under the influence of the water flow, the two sides were blocked in the middle and then spread out, and the face of the 'Young Son' gradually changed to an appearance that horrified Ji Xinxue.
Do not!
Ji Xinxue yelled hysterically in her dream.
Don't turn into Yu Heng's appearance!
No!
Ji Xinxue escaped from the dream with the anger that gradually surpassed her fear, staring blankly at the top of her dark head in a daze.
Just a dream without logic.
"Qingyun, water." The unusually hoarse words came out, and Ji Xinxue remembered that he didn't bring Qingyun with him when he went out this time. He sat up covered in damp sweat, and sneaked into the room by the window with his legs crossed. The moonlight is in a daze.
You must confess your real gender to Yu Heng as soon as possible, and you can no longer have the idea of escaping, and wait until the left guard of Princess Anguo's mansion finds the silver mine first.
If he can't overcome the fear that really constrains him, even if Zuowei of Princess An's Mansion can find the silver mine tomorrow, he will postpone his plan to confess his gender to Yu Heng because of other reasonable concerns.
He can no longer lie to himself.
He is just afraid.
It has never been the same thing that Yu Heng can understand his concealment and cannot forgive his concealment.
Ever since she began to seriously consider confessing her gender, Ji Xinxue has been deceiving herself, cunningly confusing the two, and repeatedly hinting to herself that as long as he confesses her gender and beats and scolds Yu Heng, Yu Heng will forgive him.
Whether Ji Xinxue continues to look for reasonable excuses to delay confessing her gender to Yu Heng, or Ji Xinxue is getting more and more difficult to fall asleep, so that her conscience is becoming a symptom of heart palpitations, it proves that Ji Xinxue's self-deception not only makes Ji Xinxue more concerned about gains and losses Counting on, there is no positive effect.
In the process of thinking, Ji Xinxue silently bit her wrist.
You should confess your gender to Yu Heng as soon as possible, but you can't suddenly confess your gender to Yu Heng when both parties are unprepared. The crazy man and Zhang Lan in Yu'er view are a lesson from the past.
He can give himself a period of time to hint at Yu Heng's abnormality first, and only when Yu Heng already has such doubts can he completely confess to Yu Heng.
This period is half a year.
No, half a year is too long and cannot be delayed.
seven days?
Not even seven days, he had to give Yu Heng time to think and react.
Then 30 days!
Within 30 days, he must tell Yu Heng his real gender.
After thinking, Ji Xinxue's sluggish eyes regained their spirits, stretched his stiff legs and went to the table to pour a cup of herbal tea.
The cool feeling went down the throat, not only relieved the pain in Ji Xinxue's throat, but also cleared up Ji Xinxue's chaotic mind due to too much focused thinking.
Whether it's the weird dream that caused Ji Xinxue to wake up, or the major decision she just made up her mind to make, Ji Xinxue suddenly doesn't feel sleepy anymore.
He propped his head on one hand and stared at the teacup for a while, then decided to take a walk in the yard.
After waking up for so long, Ji Xinxue's eyes have completely adapted to the darkness. He put on his outer clothes, took out a handkerchief and tied the long hair hanging behind him on top of his head, and when he walked to the door, he took off the handkerchief and stuffed it back into his sleeve pocket , Let the long hair loose again.
"Ash?"
The soft call sounded in the middle of the night almost at the same time as the door opening.
Ji Xinxue's eyes widened silently, and she returned to the room in an instant, and slammed the door firmly.
His thinking is so clear, why is he still in a dream?
There were clear footsteps outside the door, and Yu Heng said dumbfoundedly, "It's me, I was worried that you would not sleep well at night, so I asked the Jinwu Guard to go back to the princess mansion to get the tranquilizing medicine and incense."
The Jinwu Guard didn’t come back until Ji Xinxue fell asleep. Yu Heng wasn’t sure if Ji Xinxue was asleep for fear of disturbing Ji Xinxue. He was also worried that Ji Xinxue would wake up in the middle of the night and couldn’t sleep, so he waited outside the door until now.
Based on Yu Heng's understanding of Ji Xinxue, and seeing Ji Xinxue's attitude of moving like a rabbit, Yu Heng can guess what Ji Xinxue misunderstood.
After hearing the explanation outside the door, Ji Xinxue's heartbeat eased slightly, and she stretched out her hand to pinch the tender flesh on the inner thigh.
pain.
Not dreaming.
Ji Xinxue took a deep breath to calm down, turned around and opened the door, and immediately took several steps back.
Fortunately, Yu Heng had already expected Ji Xinxue's reaction, so he deliberately stopped outside the door and did not act immediately.After Ji Xinxue saw the shadow under his feet, he entered the room and went straight to the place where the candles were placed.
The warm candlelight shone in the small guest room, not only illuminating the shadows of the two of them, but also dispelling the last trace of hesitation in Ji Xinxue's heart. He laughed dumbly, "I actually forgot that this is a Taoist temple."
Even if there are really strange things, they shouldn't appear here.
Yu Heng used a candle to light the tranquilizing incense he brought, and turned his head to Ji Xinxue who walked beside him, "If you can't get used to the smell, I'll put it far away."
Ji Xinxue closed her eyes, and carefully felt the breath of Anshenxiang, it was a nice woody fragrance.Maybe it's because Yu Heng lit the candle just now. While smelling the woody fragrance, he also felt the warm breath. Ji Xinxue couldn't help but move closer to the warm direction, until his shoulder touched another person's shoulder, it was like a dream He opened his eyes as if waking up.
"It smells good." Ji Xinxue nodded affirmatively, "Just put it here."
Even if it doesn't help you sleep, it's good to just smell it.
Yu Heng quickly glanced at the position of the bed, placed the small incense burner in a place that would not be directly facing the bed, raised his hand to touch the kettle, and it was no accident that his hands were cold.
"I'll get a pot of warm water and come back to give you medicine." Yu Heng first handed the wide-mouthed jade pot in his hand to Ji Xinxue, and took the pot to the firewood room.
There are Jinwu guards guarding the night in the firewood room, and there is hot water all the time.
Ji Xinxue didn't plan to take medicine at first, but changed her mind when she saw the jade pot in her palm.
I don't know when, when Yu Heng gave him anything that could be stored in a porcelain vase, he would use a jade jar instead of a porcelain vase.
He never explained to Yu Heng carefully why Concubine Zhong Shu suddenly aged rapidly. Even if she "recovered" in the first year of Changping and stopped aging ten times faster than others, she still could not return to the palace.
Yu Heng was the only one who noticed that he hated seeing any porcelain vases and took good care of his feelings.
Yu Heng came back quickly, not only brought back hot water, but also fresh barbecue.
Ji Xinxue put away her complicated thoughts and looked at the barbecue in surprise, "Why is there a barbecue?"
If he remembered correctly, when the Taoist priests of Yu'er Temple told them what food they could provide in the temple, they never mentioned barbecue.
Yu Heng leaned into Ji Xinxue's ear and whispered, "Jin Wuwei caught a nest of rabbits in the back mountain, and brought them back after they were roasted, and I happened to bump into them. You didn't eat anything at night, eat some meat pads before eating." Medicine, so as not to wake up tomorrow uncomfortable."
Ji Xinxue raised half of her eyebrows, she was more interested in barbecue than tranquilizers.
Thinking of gradually getting Yu Heng mentally prepared before confessing her gender, Ji Xinxue's heart moved slightly, and she decided to start by not maintaining the dignified etiquette that was almost engraved into his bones in front of Yu Heng, trying to use the barbecue that Yu Heng brought back, Create an atmosphere of 'eat meat with big mouthfuls and drink with big bowls'.
Ji Xinxue tried to stuff more barbecue into her mouth, while quietly observing Yu Heng's expression.
If this trick works, when you return to the princess mansion, you can arrange a set meal with big mouthfuls of meat and big bowls of wine.But he is not very good at drinking, so he needs to use wine mixed with water to prevent the car from overturning.
Yu Heng's expression did change, but it wasn't the disgust that Ji Xinxue had expected. Instead, his eyes were full of distress. With a knife, he cut the remaining barbecue meat in the oil paper into a size that could be eaten in one bite, and pushed it towards Ji Xinxue, "Tomorrow let Jin Wuwei went back to the city to buy some snacks, in case you are not used to the food in Taoist temples and temples."
Looking at Yu Heng's graceful and calm movements even when cutting meat with a knife, and hearing Yu Heng's words of thinking for him, Ji Xinxue suddenly felt ashamed, and secretly put the plan of 'drinking in a big bowl and eating meat in big mouthfuls' into limbo. Return to the usual fast and unhurried way of eating.
Ji Xinxue felt drowsy before finishing the barbecue, leaning against the back of the chair and squinting her eyes slightly, as if she might fall asleep at any time.
Seeing this, Yu Heng hurriedly got up and went to Ji Xinxue's side, stretching out his hand to protect the direction where the chair back was missing, "Axue? Go to bed and sleep."
Ji Xinxue struggled to open his dull eyes. With Yu Heng's command and his movement, he almost threw himself on the bed and sighed in satisfaction.
Yu Heng endured the shyness of looking directly at Ji Xinxue's bed, pulled out the quilt that Ji Xinxue was pressing under her body and covered Ji Xinxue, blew out the candles, and took away the oil paper on the table so as not to affect the smell of Anshenxiang.
It was rare for Ji Xinxue to have a good night's sleep. After waking up, she lay lazily on the bed and refused to move. It was not until Yan Meng outside the door asked him carefully if he was awake, that Ji Xinxue got up in response.
Yan Meng saw the wrinkled robe on Ji Xinxue's body, his eyes flashed suddenly, he handed the bundle in his hand to Ji Xinxue, and said in a low voice, "This is the new robe that the king of the county arranged for Jin Wuwei to go back to the city to pick up. You change clothes?"
Ji Xinxue rejected Yan Meng without hesitation, and after changing her clothes, she took a hair band and went to the well water to tie her loose hair into a loose flower vine shape.
Ji Xinxue couldn't get used to the plain hairband without even embroidery patterns. He pondered for a long while facing the well water, then went back to his room to find the jasmine that Yu Heng bought yesterday with a silver bean and a gold bean.
As expected of wild flowers bought with money, more than half of the flowers still look the best even after one night. Ji Xinxue picked the smallest one and pinned it to the tail of the vine-shaped black hair.
Yan Meng witnessed Ji Xinxue's hair combing process with her own eyes, and silently swallowed the words that she was going to recommend herself to comb Ji Xinxue's hair. She was ashamed to say that she only combed her hair and tied it neatly on the top of her head, so it was better for the princess to do it herself.
With Ji Xinxue's help, the group ate the pastries brought back from the princess mansion in the city.
After filling their stomachs, they left the place where Yuer Temple was prepared for pilgrims to stay overnight, went around to the front door of Yuer Temple, and walked along the incense-burning hall in turn.
Because of the late emperor, the entire group had a bad impression of the Taoist temple. Even though Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng had changed their views on the Taoist priests here because of their experience after coming to the Yuer Temple, they still disliked the atmosphere in the Taoist temple, so everyone visited the Taoist temple very quickly. Very quickly, it took only half an hour to visit the largest fish temple near Anye, and went down the mountain in the direction of the back door of the fish temple to the next location.
When they reached the place where the mountains connected with each other, heart-piercing shouts suddenly sounded in the distance. The group of people looked at each other and looked at Huo Yu in unison.
Huo Yu raised his eyelids and glanced at everyone's faces, "Huh?"
Seeing Huo Yu's reaction, Lin Wei's face became even paler, and she couldn't help but move closer to Li Jinhuan's direction, and asked impatiently, "Did you hear anything?"
"Yes." Huo Yu nodded coldly.
Ji Xinxue had no choice but to support his forehead. No matter how long he had been in contact, he seemed unable to adapt to the communication difficulties of certain groups in the Jinwu Guard. He could only calm down and remember that nothing was urgent.
Yu Heng listened intently for a while, then suddenly frowned, "What's the sound, it seems familiar?"
Huo Yu replied without hesitation, "It's the man from yesterday who was calling 'Lan Niang, I'm here to find you.', 'Lan Niang, let me see how you are.', 'Lan Niang'."
"No need to repeat it!" Ji Xinxue stopped Huo Yu from repeating the crazy man's words in a calm and peaceful tone with a face full of horror.
If Huo Yu didn't stop, he felt that he had material for his dream tonight.
From the conversations of the people, it was determined that the vaguely heard voice was a human movement, Lin Wei breathed a sigh of relief visibly, and looked towards the direction of the sun with a relaxed expression.
Zhang Siyi, who was next to Li Jinhuan, was the complete opposite of Lin Wei. She changed from not being curious at all to being curious, "Do you know who 'Lan Niang' is?"
Huo Yu nodded coldly, not at all intending to explain Zhang Siyi's confusion.
Ji Xinxue is still uneasy about the tragedy of the man and Lanniang who began to deceive, and she is not interested in repeating the story she heard yesterday from the Taoist priests of the Yu'er Temple.
Although Yu Heng looked inaccessible on the surface, he was willing to take a step back for the people around him after getting along with him. He saw that Zhang Siyi, Li Jinhuan, and Yan Meng were all curious about the voices that could not be heard in the distance, so he talked about the man and 'Lan Niang'. tell them.
Zhang Siyi sighed a long time after hearing this, "It's a pity."
Yan Meng echoed, "Yes, it would be great if no one came to disturb the lives of Lang Jun and Lan Niang."
Li Jinhuan shook his head, "How can a man leave home willfully because of discord with his wife? When he chose to hide his family affairs and marry Lan Niang in the first place, he should have thought of the day when he would be exposed. The member, brother-in-law, and the young son and daughter will all suffer because of Mr. Lang's failure to take responsibility."
Yan Meng was stunned. Recently, she was obsessed with the various scripts given to her by Princess Dehui and Princess Jinming when they were about to part. When she heard the stories of Langjun and Lanniang, she only thought about their harmonious life. Speaking of responsibility and responsibility.
Lin Wei nodded thoughtfully, "What Brother Li said is true, if a man has no responsibility, why bother to involve a good woman."
Ji Xinxue, who was silent for a while, looked sideways at Yu Heng, wanting to ask Yu Heng what he thought, but felt that it was unnecessary.
The tragedies of the man and Zhang Lan were all caused by the cowardice and greed of the man, and there is really no room for questioning.
Yu Heng suddenly raised his eyes to meet Shang Ji Xinxue's gaze, "If Zhang Lan hadn't just given birth to a young child, the ending might have been different."
The old man in Princess Anguo's mansion once said that his mother was very emotionally unstable when she was pregnant with him and when she first gave birth to him. I think it was because of this that Zhang Lan made mistakes on impulse.
Otherwise, even if Zhang Lan lost her son, she would still have her father, younger brother, and three children, not to mention her newborn son.
Ji Xinxue calmed down a little, and nodded heavily.
He and Yu Heng will definitely not end up separated by Yin and Yang like the man and Zhang Lan.
While discussing about the man and Zhang Lan, everyone moved towards the next goal.
Yu Heng, who was listening intently to the Taoist priests' words, felt the pain in his arm, only to realize that Ji Xinxue's face was extremely ugly. Even though the weather was not too hot, there was faint sweat on his head.
He hurriedly took out a clean handkerchief from his sleeve pocket, and wiped the sweat off Ji Xinxue's forehead, "What's wrong?"
Ji Xinxue raised her head and looked at Yu Heng who was half a head taller than him and who was caring about him with all her attention. The fear in her eyes grew deeper and deeper.
If he suddenly told Yu Heng his real gender, would Yu Heng be like Zhang Yuanwai's daughter, who looked normal at the time and made people think that she had accepted the truth calmly, but in the dead of night she was
Just thinking of this possibility made Ji Xinxue feel so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe.
"Ash?"
Yu Heng's complexion changed drastically, and he bent down following Ji Xinxue who was squatting with his hands on his chest, "Are you having heart palpitations again?"
It's a shame that he clearly noticed this point and asked Ji Xinxue specifically, but he believed it easily because Ji Xinxue explained it with other reasons, and didn't let the imperial physician treat Ji Xinxue carefully.
Ji Xinxue's eyes turned black in pain, but he could clearly hear the anxiety in Yu Heng's tone. He tried his best to keep calm, "It's okay."
Little did he know that the more he tried to pretend nothing had happened, the greater the contrast between his pale face, the cold sweat on his forehead and his calm tone, the more unreliable he was.
Huo Yu walked quickly to the two of them, "Let me take a look."
He lifted Ji Xinxue's eyelids and stared at Ji Xinxue's pupils, then put his hand on Ji Xinxue's wrist, "No poison."
He can only watch this, not cure illnesses.
Ji Xinxue fell powerlessly into Yu Heng's arms, and said slowly, "I'm fine, just take it easy."
I am afraid that speaking too fast or too loud will cause the pain in my chest again.
Yu Heng silently tightened his grip on Ji Xinxue's shoulder, "We're going back to the city right now."
It doesn't matter if the city gate is locked, no one in Anye dares to stop the princess and the county king outside the city, at worst, he will be impeached in Chang'an, these are not as important as Ji Xinxue's safety.
Ji Xinxue shook his head, he was no stranger to the tingling feeling in his chest.
After staying up late or even all night for various reasons in his previous life, he also felt this kind of stinging pain, but it was not as severe as this time.
The leading Taoist priest Dan Ze suddenly said, "My opinion is that Uncle Yi Ming is good at Qihuang, he can diagnose and treat pilgrims, and there are herbs that my brothers and sisters usually pick on the mountain and medicinal materials bought from Anye City."
Hesitation appeared on Yu Heng's face, he was unwilling to hand over Ji Xinxue's safety to an unfamiliar Taoist priest, but Ji Xinxue looked so uncomfortable, if he rushed back to An Ye directly, Yu Heng was afraid that Ji Xinxue would suddenly have heart palpitations again on the road.
Yu'er Guan has medicine at least.
"Okay." Ji Xinxue pulled the handkerchief in Yu Heng's hand with her weak palm, wiped the sweat off her forehead carelessly, and smiled brightly at Yu Heng, "I'm really fine."
The Taoist persuaded Yu Heng and Ji Xinxue, "Uncle Yi Ming is just checking the pulse of the pilgrims, and he will not give random needles or force the pilgrims to use medicine."
The rest of the Taoists followed suit to persuade the two of them.
"Yes, many serious illnesses are caused by minor illnesses. Since there are already symptoms of discomfort, it is better to treat them earlier."
"Uncle Yi Ming is a free clinic and will not charge any fees. If a pilgrim needs to drink medicine in the Taoist temple, he will not be charged for the medicine that can be picked on the mountain, and the rest of the medicine will only be charged at the same price as the medicine shop in the city."
"If the pilgrims leave immediately, no matter whether they are traveling at night or riding a horse or riding a car, it will cause heart palpitations. I am afraid that the little lady will feel uncomfortable on the road."
Yu Heng was persuaded by the Taoist priests, and Ji Xinxue also wanted to reassure Yu Heng, they finally agreed to find a Taoist priest named Yi Ming to give Ji Xinxue a pulse diagnosis.
A group of people entered the Yu'er Temple through the side door, and the senior brother of the Taoist priests, that is, Dan Ze, who first chatted with Ji Xinxue and others, led the way for them.
The rest of the Taoist priests carried the man who was tied and gagged and was still struggling wildly to the place where the Taoist priests lived.
Ji Xinxue stopped where she was, looking at the man who was tied up and carried away for a long time.He could almost guess the man's story from the Taoist priests' words, "Why did he become like this?"
But he couldn't be satisfied and guessed, and wanted to know more exact content from the Taoist priest.
A groan appeared on Danze's face.
The man came back three months after leaving Anye. He didn't notice the complicated eyes of the people in Anye when they looked at him, and went straight to the 'home'.
This time, Zhang Yuanwai's broom got stuck on the man's face.
He told the man to get out of Anye, he was not allowed to disturb his beloved daughter, and he was not allowed to see his grandson and granddaughter.
The man was surprised to hear that Zhang Yuanwai's daughter drowned in her arms on the night he left. He subconsciously thought that Zhang Yuanwai was lying, that Zhang Lan, who had already decided to forgive him, went back on his word and lied to him together with Zhang Yuanwai.
He guarded Zhang Yuanwai's door for three days without eating or drinking. Zhang Yuanwai secretly asked a neighbor to tell the man about his daughter's drowning.
The man still refused to believe what his neighbor said. As more and more people said the same thing as his neighbor, the man suddenly yelled at the person who told him the truth. The cemetery of Yuanwai's family.
Zhang Lan's tomb is indeed there, and it was erected by Zhang Yuanwai's son.
'The Tomb of Changjielan'
The newborn child was also buried in the same place as Zhang Lan.
"Member Zhang is kind-hearted, thinking of his old love, he sent someone to follow him from a distance, and when he passed out in front of his daughter's grave, he was brought back to the city, and sent to the property he bought when he first came to Anye." Speaking of this, the pity in Danze's eyes is even worse.
Immediately after waking up, the man asked the servants around him when he would be able to go home, expressing that he couldn't wait to see Zhang Lan and his youngest son.
The servant immediately noticed that something was wrong with the man, and answered a few nonsense words that were full of flaws. The man soon realized that something was wrong, walked out of the room, and found that he was in Anye at this time, overjoyed, and immediately went to Zhang Yuanwai's house See Zhang Lan and the youngest son.
Zhang Yuanwai was no longer willing to entangle with the man too much, and ordered someone to send the man who was unconscious in front of Zhang Lan's tomb back to Anye. The man returns home, and then returns to Anye.
The man knocked on the door of Zhang Yuanwai's residence for a long time without getting a response, so he could only knock on the neighbor's door, and asked the neighbor in a panic why there was no one in Zhang Yuanwai's residence.
The neighbors saw Zhang Yuan’s family next door from envy to other people’s ruins, and hated the man deeply. Seeing the man’s emaciated appearance and unfaithful panic, he only lamented that good fortune made others, and advised the man not to linger on the past, it is better to return home as soon as possible Home.
Zhang Lan has passed away, and Zhang Yuanwai is unwilling to have anything to do with the man again. The man might as well let Zhang Yuanwai go and return home to treat his wife who has been neglected for many years.
The neighbor told the reality that the man couldn't face it. The man was silent for a long time, and went to the Zhang family's cemetery again to be carried back to Anye by his servants.
After waking up, the man forgot all about the past, happily went to Zhang Yuanwai's residence to find Zhang Lan and his youngest son, and then the people in Anye explained what he had avoided, so he rushed to Zhang Lan. In front of the tomb until he passed out from exhaustion and passed out in such a cycle.
Even if Zhang Yuan couldn't bear it, he took his grandson and granddaughter to visit the man himself, told the man that Zhang Lan was dead when the man just woke up, and deliberately lied to the man that Zhang Lan did not commit suicide but died of illness, and allowed the man to visit his grandson every now and then With his granddaughter, the man was still repeating the process of going to Zhang Lan's tomb until he was exhausted and passed out, and when he woke up, he forgot everything before again, and couldn't wait to see Zhang Lan.
The third month after the man returned to Anye, and the sixth month after Zhang Lan passed away, the man went crazy.
When he woke up, he didn't ask his servants where they were and when he could see Zhang Lan with joy in his eyes, but shouted "Lan Niang" at the top of his voice, and went straight to the Zhang family's land outside Anye City.
The man's family once took him away, and sent him back in half a month. They took two months to confirm that the man must go to Zhang Lan's tomb every ten days, otherwise he would only go crazy when he went crazy. People who know how to find Zhang Lan will go crazy and try their best to commit suicide.
They handed over the man's property and money in Anye to Zhang Yuanwai, saying that they would be left to the man's children, and gave Yu'er Guan a large sum of incense money, asking the Taoist priests to take care of the man, implying that the Taoist priests can accept the death of the man, but not Accepting that the man is suicide, I am afraid that the governor and his wife will not be able to bear it.
Then only one person was left in Anye City to visit the man every now and then, and the others were sent home and never appeared in Anye again.
Danze shook his head, "Since then, no one has been sent from his family. Brother Cong in Anye City only sent a large amount of incense money every ten days and clothes for him to change three times a day, and never cared about it. His illness. On the contrary, Zhang Yuanwai brought his son, grandson, and granddaughter to visit the man every five days. Although he still refused to forgive the man, he still hoped that the man would return to normal."
"Can he return to normal?" Yu Heng asked.
Danze showed embarrassment, "Uncle Yi Ming said that he has never been insane, and now is the life he wants."
In his opinion, this is something that Master Yi Ming has seen through through Taoism. He has not yet reached his level so he has not seen it through. People who have not practiced Taoism will not understand it, and nine times out of ten they will regard Master Yi Ming as a liar.
After all, when the man just went crazy, his father who was the governor sent him a steady stream of famous doctors to diagnose and treat the man. They all said that the man was completely insane, and there was no cure for it.
Ji Xinxue began to feel uncomfortable in her heart again, and quietly opened her mouth to control the frequency of her breathing, so as not to scare Yu Heng again.
Ever since he came to the fief, he has been thinking day and night about how to confess his gender to Yu Heng, so that Yu Heng's anger can be lightened. He suddenly heard the tragedy of the man and Zhang Lan's deception, and he really couldn't help but think about it.
Although the relationship between him and Yu Heng is different from the relationship between the man and Zhang Lan, he and Yu Heng have a verbal marriage contract.
Even when the verbal marriage contract was made, Yu Heng entrusted the Prince of Qinghe County to the Jiawang Mansion to propose marriage just because he wanted to avoid him being selected as the concubine princess, but their marriage contract has lasted for two years. Treat him as a real fiancée.
From Ji Xinxue's point of view, the only thing better than the man and Zhang Lan's current situation between him and Yu Heng is that he and Yu Heng have no children.
So when Yu Heng can't think about it, he will only hurt himself, no child can hurt bah bah bah!
Yu Heng was worried about Ji Xinxue's palpitations. Although he listened to Danze's words, he also took the initiative to ask questions, but most of his attention was on Ji Xinxue, and Ji Xinxue's complexion became more and more ugly, and the sweat on his forehead became more and more , and his eyes also appear to be in a trance.
He stretched out his hand to support Ji Xinxue, and calmly slowed down his walking speed. He secretly rejoiced that he didn't insist on taking Ji Xinxue down the mountain and back to the city immediately when he was outside the side door. With Ji Xinxue's current state, he must not be able to accept the bumps of the carriage.
Danze also noticed Ji Xinxue's abnormality, and deliberately took Ji Xinxue and others into the place where the surrounding people seek medical treatment through the back door, and took them directly to the place where Master Yi Ming usually had his pulse. Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng compensated for being frightened.
Soon, Xiao Daotong, who was only in the year of Zongjiao, ran over and said solemnly, "Senior Brother Danze, you are on the wrong road. Guests who come to seek medical treatment have to line up at the front door."
Danze touched Xiaodaotong Fangzheng's forehead, and said in a gentle voice, "This little lady has sudden palpitations, I'm afraid I can't wait long, you go and explain the situation to Master Yi Ming."
Xiao Daotong nodded obediently, strode away, and ran back panting in a short while, asking Danze to bring the pilgrims in.
Entering the room through the back door, Ji Xinxue took a deep breath and felt the tangy herbal smell. She didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but she felt that her restless heart had calmed down a lot.
He looked up at the old Taoist who was sitting behind the table, and he presumably was Master Yi Ming who was praised by the Taoist priests.
Danze first went to the old Taoist to salute, and told the old Taoist the whole story of why he brought Ji Xinxue and others to seek medical treatment. He told the old Taoist tactfully that he suspected that Ji Xinxue's heart palpitations were caused by the man.
The old Taoist nodded slowly, his kind eyes turned over Zhongren's face, and finally fell on Ji Xinxue, who was extremely pale, "Looking at Xiangke's face, it seems that he is troubled by insomnia, you might as well take some tranquilizing medicine before going to bed. "
Ji Xinxue nodded, and with Yu Heng's support, walked to the old Taoist and sat down.
Just now, the old Taoist looked at him with almost the same eyes as the imperial physician usually when he was diagnosing the Ping An pulse, and he felt like an orthodox Chinese medicine doctor.
Ji Xinxue stretched out her arms to rest on the soft pillow, "Please ask the Taoist priest for his pulse."
The old Taoist nodded with a smile, put his finger on Ji Xinxue's pulse, closed his eyes and felt it carefully for a while, and asked, "Pilgrim, is it difficult to fall asleep at night, dreamy but easy to wake up, as long as you wake up, you can't fall asleep for a long time, have you opened your eyes?" Waiting for Tianming's troubles?"
Ji Xinxue thought about it for a while, then nodded, "Yes."
"I don't know how long the pilgrim has been troubled by this?" the old Taoist asked.
"Three months ago, I started to have difficulty falling asleep, and it wasn't until recently that I woke up more often." Ji Xinxue smiled wryly.
Since Emperor Changping finally let go of his willingness to let him go to the fief for inspection, he often has trouble falling asleep.
At the beginning, I was thinking about how to get Emperor Changping to agree to Yu Heng coming to the fief with him.Later, I thought about how to confess my gender to Yu Heng in order to get Yu Heng's understanding.
As long as he was lying on the bed, he couldn't help thinking about these things over and over again, and he lost sleep unconsciously.
The old Taoist opened his slightly closed eyes, opened his eyes, took the hand on Ji Xinxue's wrist to check the pulse, and said in a warm voice, "According to the old Taoist, the palpitations of the pilgrims are not heart diseases, but the symptoms of palpitations appear when the heart is stagnant and difficult to pour out. After going down the mountain, find a pharmacy and grab ten sedatives for ten days to relieve fatigue and get rid of heart palpitations. If the family is rich, you can also take some calming tonics, and let the maid read the Qingjing Sutra before going to bed to fall asleep."
Ji Xinxue nodded thoughtfully, no wonder the imperial doctor who asked for Ping Anmai always wanted to prescribe tonics for him. Maybe he had seen his symptoms a long time ago, because he was not sure why he was depressed, and he was afraid of getting into trouble. Dare to speak out, so I never said it clearly.
If the imperial physician had said earlier that he could sleep peacefully by taking tonics, he would not have rejected the imperial physician because he felt that the medicine was three-point poisonous, and there was no need to accumulate poison when he was not sick.
Seeing Ji Xinxue sitting there with a pale face, looking well-behaved and pitiful, the old Taoist couldn't help persuading him a few more words, "There are definite and variable things in the world, so let it be. Pilgrims are still young, so you might as well tell them what's on your mind." With elders and friends, don’t go into a dead end alone.”
Ji Xinxue nodded with a wry smile, "Thank you, Daoist, I understand."
He can only tell Aye and Fenglang what is on his mind, tell Aye, Aye may not be able to understand his worries, he will probably find a way to confess to Fenglang for him, this is not the result he wants.
Telling Feng Lang that he was hesitant about this matter, and he had just heard about the tragedy of the crazy man and Zhang Lan in the view of Yu'er who cheated, and he didn't know how to speak up.
Seeing that Ji Xinxue was clearly saying "I know", but the sadness between his brows was more intense, the old Taoist sighed in his heart, got up and went to another table in the room to write a prescription for calming the nerves, and stopped persuading him.
He can only cure the disease but not the 'heart', so he can only increase the amount of sleeping pills when formulating the prescription, so that Ji Xinxue can sleep peacefully at night, and he can restore his weak body to compete with the 'heart' as soon as possible.
Yu Heng, who was always standing by Ji Xinxue's side, took the prescription with both hands, and handed the purse around his waist to the old Taoist, "I didn't bring much money when I went out in a hurry, and I will order my servants to send incense sticks when I return home."
The old Taoist looked at the clothes of Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng, obviously accepted Yu Heng's purse, and wrote a prescription for medicinal diet for sleeping, and told the two to use less medicine if they could use medicinal diet.
Because of many delays, when Ji Xinxue, Yu Heng, Li Jinhuan and others met, it was completely dark. If Jin Wuwei had not told Li Jinhuan's people that Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng were in Yu'er Temple, Li Jinhuan and others were in a hurry. I had to almost go down the mountain to find someone.
Ji Xinxue had a conversation with the old Taoist. Although she still couldn't untangle her heart, the anxiety in her heart had temporarily calmed down, and her face gradually returned to normal.
He didn't want Li Jinhuan and others to worry about him, so he apologized first when he saw everyone, saying that he and Yu Heng didn't go up the mountain from the main gate, Yu'er was attracted by the scenery at the side gate, and unconsciously forgot the time before arriving until dark .
Yu Heng would never deny what Ji Xinxue had said. He nodded to the people who were asking questions, confirming what Ji Xinxue said.
As the largest and most popular Taoist temple around Anye, Yu'er Temple can not only provide three meals for pilgrims, but also provide accommodation.
Because of the generous money for incense sticks, Ji Xinxue and the others were allocated a separate small courtyard.
Ji Xinxue declined Yan Meng's proposal to sleep with him on the grounds that he would wake up easily at night, and walked towards the main room without looking back under Yan Meng's disappointed gaze.
In addition to writing down a prescription and a recipe for medicinal food, the old Taoist also gave Ji Xinxue three pills, saying that they were homemade tranquilizing medicines. If Ji Xinxue needed them, the Taoist temple could also make Ji Xinxue a soothing decoction.
Ji Xinxue stared at the porcelain bottle of medicine on the table for a long time after washing, but she still didn't reach out her hand and went straight to bed.
Close your eyes, and all kinds of distracting thoughts that have been forced to be suppressed in the bottom of your heart by diverting your attention for a long time come to your mind again.
There are all kinds of reactions that Yu Heng might have after he confessed his gender with Yu Heng that he repeatedly speculated, and there are also various scenes of tragedies caused by scumbags cheating on marriages created by the Taoist priests.
Although the sleepiness was getting deeper and deeper, these distracting thoughts still refused to let him go easily, and they went straight to entangle in his dream, allowing Ji Xinxue to "see" the man and Zhang Lan confessing the concealment in an immersive way, Zhang Lan Accepting the reality with a calm expression, forgiving the man, and asking the man to return to Anye earlier, personally sending the man out, communicating with others as if nothing had happened, washing up step by step, falling asleep, and then quietly opening his eyes in the dead of night, hugging The young son walked into the pond step by step.
Falling into a dream, Ji Xinxue knew that he was dreaming. He didn't want to see the man getting along with Zhang Lan, and he didn't want to see Zhang Lan walking into the pond with her young son in her arms and staring at him with black and white eyes.
Occasionally, the ink hair floating along the water blocked Zhang Lan's calm and terrifying gaze, but it would soon disperse. The young son who had closed his eyes in Zhang Lan's arms also opened his eyes to look at Ji Xinxue. Under the influence of the water flow, the two sides were blocked in the middle and then spread out, and the face of the 'Young Son' gradually changed to an appearance that horrified Ji Xinxue.
Do not!
Ji Xinxue yelled hysterically in her dream.
Don't turn into Yu Heng's appearance!
No!
Ji Xinxue escaped from the dream with the anger that gradually surpassed her fear, staring blankly at the top of her dark head in a daze.
Just a dream without logic.
"Qingyun, water." The unusually hoarse words came out, and Ji Xinxue remembered that he didn't bring Qingyun with him when he went out this time. He sat up covered in damp sweat, and sneaked into the room by the window with his legs crossed. The moonlight is in a daze.
You must confess your real gender to Yu Heng as soon as possible, and you can no longer have the idea of escaping, and wait until the left guard of Princess Anguo's mansion finds the silver mine first.
If he can't overcome the fear that really constrains him, even if Zuowei of Princess An's Mansion can find the silver mine tomorrow, he will postpone his plan to confess his gender to Yu Heng because of other reasonable concerns.
He can no longer lie to himself.
He is just afraid.
It has never been the same thing that Yu Heng can understand his concealment and cannot forgive his concealment.
Ever since she began to seriously consider confessing her gender, Ji Xinxue has been deceiving herself, cunningly confusing the two, and repeatedly hinting to herself that as long as he confesses her gender and beats and scolds Yu Heng, Yu Heng will forgive him.
Whether Ji Xinxue continues to look for reasonable excuses to delay confessing her gender to Yu Heng, or Ji Xinxue is getting more and more difficult to fall asleep, so that her conscience is becoming a symptom of heart palpitations, it proves that Ji Xinxue's self-deception not only makes Ji Xinxue more concerned about gains and losses Counting on, there is no positive effect.
In the process of thinking, Ji Xinxue silently bit her wrist.
You should confess your gender to Yu Heng as soon as possible, but you can't suddenly confess your gender to Yu Heng when both parties are unprepared. The crazy man and Zhang Lan in Yu'er view are a lesson from the past.
He can give himself a period of time to hint at Yu Heng's abnormality first, and only when Yu Heng already has such doubts can he completely confess to Yu Heng.
This period is half a year.
No, half a year is too long and cannot be delayed.
seven days?
Not even seven days, he had to give Yu Heng time to think and react.
Then 30 days!
Within 30 days, he must tell Yu Heng his real gender.
After thinking, Ji Xinxue's sluggish eyes regained their spirits, stretched his stiff legs and went to the table to pour a cup of herbal tea.
The cool feeling went down the throat, not only relieved the pain in Ji Xinxue's throat, but also cleared up Ji Xinxue's chaotic mind due to too much focused thinking.
Whether it's the weird dream that caused Ji Xinxue to wake up, or the major decision she just made up her mind to make, Ji Xinxue suddenly doesn't feel sleepy anymore.
He propped his head on one hand and stared at the teacup for a while, then decided to take a walk in the yard.
After waking up for so long, Ji Xinxue's eyes have completely adapted to the darkness. He put on his outer clothes, took out a handkerchief and tied the long hair hanging behind him on top of his head, and when he walked to the door, he took off the handkerchief and stuffed it back into his sleeve pocket , Let the long hair loose again.
"Ash?"
The soft call sounded in the middle of the night almost at the same time as the door opening.
Ji Xinxue's eyes widened silently, and she returned to the room in an instant, and slammed the door firmly.
His thinking is so clear, why is he still in a dream?
There were clear footsteps outside the door, and Yu Heng said dumbfoundedly, "It's me, I was worried that you would not sleep well at night, so I asked the Jinwu Guard to go back to the princess mansion to get the tranquilizing medicine and incense."
The Jinwu Guard didn’t come back until Ji Xinxue fell asleep. Yu Heng wasn’t sure if Ji Xinxue was asleep for fear of disturbing Ji Xinxue. He was also worried that Ji Xinxue would wake up in the middle of the night and couldn’t sleep, so he waited outside the door until now.
Based on Yu Heng's understanding of Ji Xinxue, and seeing Ji Xinxue's attitude of moving like a rabbit, Yu Heng can guess what Ji Xinxue misunderstood.
After hearing the explanation outside the door, Ji Xinxue's heartbeat eased slightly, and she stretched out her hand to pinch the tender flesh on the inner thigh.
pain.
Not dreaming.
Ji Xinxue took a deep breath to calm down, turned around and opened the door, and immediately took several steps back.
Fortunately, Yu Heng had already expected Ji Xinxue's reaction, so he deliberately stopped outside the door and did not act immediately.After Ji Xinxue saw the shadow under his feet, he entered the room and went straight to the place where the candles were placed.
The warm candlelight shone in the small guest room, not only illuminating the shadows of the two of them, but also dispelling the last trace of hesitation in Ji Xinxue's heart. He laughed dumbly, "I actually forgot that this is a Taoist temple."
Even if there are really strange things, they shouldn't appear here.
Yu Heng used a candle to light the tranquilizing incense he brought, and turned his head to Ji Xinxue who walked beside him, "If you can't get used to the smell, I'll put it far away."
Ji Xinxue closed her eyes, and carefully felt the breath of Anshenxiang, it was a nice woody fragrance.Maybe it's because Yu Heng lit the candle just now. While smelling the woody fragrance, he also felt the warm breath. Ji Xinxue couldn't help but move closer to the warm direction, until his shoulder touched another person's shoulder, it was like a dream He opened his eyes as if waking up.
"It smells good." Ji Xinxue nodded affirmatively, "Just put it here."
Even if it doesn't help you sleep, it's good to just smell it.
Yu Heng quickly glanced at the position of the bed, placed the small incense burner in a place that would not be directly facing the bed, raised his hand to touch the kettle, and it was no accident that his hands were cold.
"I'll get a pot of warm water and come back to give you medicine." Yu Heng first handed the wide-mouthed jade pot in his hand to Ji Xinxue, and took the pot to the firewood room.
There are Jinwu guards guarding the night in the firewood room, and there is hot water all the time.
Ji Xinxue didn't plan to take medicine at first, but changed her mind when she saw the jade pot in her palm.
I don't know when, when Yu Heng gave him anything that could be stored in a porcelain vase, he would use a jade jar instead of a porcelain vase.
He never explained to Yu Heng carefully why Concubine Zhong Shu suddenly aged rapidly. Even if she "recovered" in the first year of Changping and stopped aging ten times faster than others, she still could not return to the palace.
Yu Heng was the only one who noticed that he hated seeing any porcelain vases and took good care of his feelings.
Yu Heng came back quickly, not only brought back hot water, but also fresh barbecue.
Ji Xinxue put away her complicated thoughts and looked at the barbecue in surprise, "Why is there a barbecue?"
If he remembered correctly, when the Taoist priests of Yu'er Temple told them what food they could provide in the temple, they never mentioned barbecue.
Yu Heng leaned into Ji Xinxue's ear and whispered, "Jin Wuwei caught a nest of rabbits in the back mountain, and brought them back after they were roasted, and I happened to bump into them. You didn't eat anything at night, eat some meat pads before eating." Medicine, so as not to wake up tomorrow uncomfortable."
Ji Xinxue raised half of her eyebrows, she was more interested in barbecue than tranquilizers.
Thinking of gradually getting Yu Heng mentally prepared before confessing her gender, Ji Xinxue's heart moved slightly, and she decided to start by not maintaining the dignified etiquette that was almost engraved into his bones in front of Yu Heng, trying to use the barbecue that Yu Heng brought back, Create an atmosphere of 'eat meat with big mouthfuls and drink with big bowls'.
Ji Xinxue tried to stuff more barbecue into her mouth, while quietly observing Yu Heng's expression.
If this trick works, when you return to the princess mansion, you can arrange a set meal with big mouthfuls of meat and big bowls of wine.But he is not very good at drinking, so he needs to use wine mixed with water to prevent the car from overturning.
Yu Heng's expression did change, but it wasn't the disgust that Ji Xinxue had expected. Instead, his eyes were full of distress. With a knife, he cut the remaining barbecue meat in the oil paper into a size that could be eaten in one bite, and pushed it towards Ji Xinxue, "Tomorrow let Jin Wuwei went back to the city to buy some snacks, in case you are not used to the food in Taoist temples and temples."
Looking at Yu Heng's graceful and calm movements even when cutting meat with a knife, and hearing Yu Heng's words of thinking for him, Ji Xinxue suddenly felt ashamed, and secretly put the plan of 'drinking in a big bowl and eating meat in big mouthfuls' into limbo. Return to the usual fast and unhurried way of eating.
Ji Xinxue felt drowsy before finishing the barbecue, leaning against the back of the chair and squinting her eyes slightly, as if she might fall asleep at any time.
Seeing this, Yu Heng hurriedly got up and went to Ji Xinxue's side, stretching out his hand to protect the direction where the chair back was missing, "Axue? Go to bed and sleep."
Ji Xinxue struggled to open his dull eyes. With Yu Heng's command and his movement, he almost threw himself on the bed and sighed in satisfaction.
Yu Heng endured the shyness of looking directly at Ji Xinxue's bed, pulled out the quilt that Ji Xinxue was pressing under her body and covered Ji Xinxue, blew out the candles, and took away the oil paper on the table so as not to affect the smell of Anshenxiang.
It was rare for Ji Xinxue to have a good night's sleep. After waking up, she lay lazily on the bed and refused to move. It was not until Yan Meng outside the door asked him carefully if he was awake, that Ji Xinxue got up in response.
Yan Meng saw the wrinkled robe on Ji Xinxue's body, his eyes flashed suddenly, he handed the bundle in his hand to Ji Xinxue, and said in a low voice, "This is the new robe that the king of the county arranged for Jin Wuwei to go back to the city to pick up. You change clothes?"
Ji Xinxue rejected Yan Meng without hesitation, and after changing her clothes, she took a hair band and went to the well water to tie her loose hair into a loose flower vine shape.
Ji Xinxue couldn't get used to the plain hairband without even embroidery patterns. He pondered for a long while facing the well water, then went back to his room to find the jasmine that Yu Heng bought yesterday with a silver bean and a gold bean.
As expected of wild flowers bought with money, more than half of the flowers still look the best even after one night. Ji Xinxue picked the smallest one and pinned it to the tail of the vine-shaped black hair.
Yan Meng witnessed Ji Xinxue's hair combing process with her own eyes, and silently swallowed the words that she was going to recommend herself to comb Ji Xinxue's hair. She was ashamed to say that she only combed her hair and tied it neatly on the top of her head, so it was better for the princess to do it herself.
With Ji Xinxue's help, the group ate the pastries brought back from the princess mansion in the city.
After filling their stomachs, they left the place where Yuer Temple was prepared for pilgrims to stay overnight, went around to the front door of Yuer Temple, and walked along the incense-burning hall in turn.
Because of the late emperor, the entire group had a bad impression of the Taoist temple. Even though Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng had changed their views on the Taoist priests here because of their experience after coming to the Yuer Temple, they still disliked the atmosphere in the Taoist temple, so everyone visited the Taoist temple very quickly. Very quickly, it took only half an hour to visit the largest fish temple near Anye, and went down the mountain in the direction of the back door of the fish temple to the next location.
When they reached the place where the mountains connected with each other, heart-piercing shouts suddenly sounded in the distance. The group of people looked at each other and looked at Huo Yu in unison.
Huo Yu raised his eyelids and glanced at everyone's faces, "Huh?"
Seeing Huo Yu's reaction, Lin Wei's face became even paler, and she couldn't help but move closer to Li Jinhuan's direction, and asked impatiently, "Did you hear anything?"
"Yes." Huo Yu nodded coldly.
Ji Xinxue had no choice but to support his forehead. No matter how long he had been in contact, he seemed unable to adapt to the communication difficulties of certain groups in the Jinwu Guard. He could only calm down and remember that nothing was urgent.
Yu Heng listened intently for a while, then suddenly frowned, "What's the sound, it seems familiar?"
Huo Yu replied without hesitation, "It's the man from yesterday who was calling 'Lan Niang, I'm here to find you.', 'Lan Niang, let me see how you are.', 'Lan Niang'."
"No need to repeat it!" Ji Xinxue stopped Huo Yu from repeating the crazy man's words in a calm and peaceful tone with a face full of horror.
If Huo Yu didn't stop, he felt that he had material for his dream tonight.
From the conversations of the people, it was determined that the vaguely heard voice was a human movement, Lin Wei breathed a sigh of relief visibly, and looked towards the direction of the sun with a relaxed expression.
Zhang Siyi, who was next to Li Jinhuan, was the complete opposite of Lin Wei. She changed from not being curious at all to being curious, "Do you know who 'Lan Niang' is?"
Huo Yu nodded coldly, not at all intending to explain Zhang Siyi's confusion.
Ji Xinxue is still uneasy about the tragedy of the man and Lanniang who began to deceive, and she is not interested in repeating the story she heard yesterday from the Taoist priests of the Yu'er Temple.
Although Yu Heng looked inaccessible on the surface, he was willing to take a step back for the people around him after getting along with him. He saw that Zhang Siyi, Li Jinhuan, and Yan Meng were all curious about the voices that could not be heard in the distance, so he talked about the man and 'Lan Niang'. tell them.
Zhang Siyi sighed a long time after hearing this, "It's a pity."
Yan Meng echoed, "Yes, it would be great if no one came to disturb the lives of Lang Jun and Lan Niang."
Li Jinhuan shook his head, "How can a man leave home willfully because of discord with his wife? When he chose to hide his family affairs and marry Lan Niang in the first place, he should have thought of the day when he would be exposed. The member, brother-in-law, and the young son and daughter will all suffer because of Mr. Lang's failure to take responsibility."
Yan Meng was stunned. Recently, she was obsessed with the various scripts given to her by Princess Dehui and Princess Jinming when they were about to part. When she heard the stories of Langjun and Lanniang, she only thought about their harmonious life. Speaking of responsibility and responsibility.
Lin Wei nodded thoughtfully, "What Brother Li said is true, if a man has no responsibility, why bother to involve a good woman."
Ji Xinxue, who was silent for a while, looked sideways at Yu Heng, wanting to ask Yu Heng what he thought, but felt that it was unnecessary.
The tragedies of the man and Zhang Lan were all caused by the cowardice and greed of the man, and there is really no room for questioning.
Yu Heng suddenly raised his eyes to meet Shang Ji Xinxue's gaze, "If Zhang Lan hadn't just given birth to a young child, the ending might have been different."
The old man in Princess Anguo's mansion once said that his mother was very emotionally unstable when she was pregnant with him and when she first gave birth to him. I think it was because of this that Zhang Lan made mistakes on impulse.
Otherwise, even if Zhang Lan lost her son, she would still have her father, younger brother, and three children, not to mention her newborn son.
Ji Xinxue calmed down a little, and nodded heavily.
He and Yu Heng will definitely not end up separated by Yin and Yang like the man and Zhang Lan.
While discussing about the man and Zhang Lan, everyone moved towards the next goal.
