"Did anyone pick up a girl of about thirteen or fourteen in the village yesterday or the day before yesterday, and she was seriously injured?" Wu Xun asked with concern.
"That's not true." Old Man Wang thought about it carefully and said, "There are only a dozen households in this village. If someone calls for one more person, everyone in the village will definitely know about it."
"Madam, may I take the liberty to ask, who is that girl to you?" Aunt Wang saw Wu Xun's melancholy expression and asked with concern.
"My daughter was killed by an adulterer and fell off a cliff. We also fell off a cliff. Fortunately, my husband knew some martial arts and used vines to save our lives. My daughter's clothes were found under the cliff.
The piece of skirt was broken. Did a nearby farmer save her?"
Mr. and Mrs. Wang looked at each other, sighed and said, "Madam, don't think that we, the old couple, are harsh in our words. If you fall from the cliff, you will most likely not survive. Moreover, there are often wild animals near this mountain."
,I am afraid……"
Wu Xun seemed not to have heard anything and sat blankly on the bed. He suddenly recalled the first time he saw Ruosu. She was younger than Ji Mianxi, with a pair of big, watery eyes on her dirty face.
Just looking at her with hope, her eyes told herself that she was eager to live, Wu Xun didn't dare to think about it, she pushed away Song Hanzhuo who wanted to comfort her, and said coldly, "Let me alone
Be alone and quiet."
Wu Xun didn't know how long he lay in bed, with the sun rising and setting, until Song Hanzhuo opened the door and walked in, asking in a cold voice, "How long do you want to stay here?"
"There are still many people waiting for you in the capital, and you are just lying here dejected?! Show your fierceness like that back then?!" Song Hanzhuo opened Wu Xun's shoulders and saw this woman looking at him with tears on her face,
All the sounds were in his throat, and he patted her shoulder gently, "It's okay, I'm here." In Song Hanzhuo's impression, neither Ye Fuxun nor Wu Xun had ever cried like this.
Maybe after crying, you can let it go.
Wu Xun locked himself in the room for a day and night, and finally came out. Old man Wang and his wife were overjoyed when they saw Wu Xun come out. The two simple old couples hurriedly brought some light and delicious meals to Wu Xun, "Madam, come out
That’s good, there are no obstacles in this world that we can’t overcome.”
Wu Xun smiled gratefully at Aunt Wang, took a deep breath, picked up the chopsticks, and started eating. She had to get better as soon as possible so that she could vent her bad breath for her Su'er.
In the past few days, this farmhouse has been full of life. The old man Wang and his wife only have one son who works as a long-term worker in a wealthy family in the capital. He rarely goes home. Every day Song Hanzhao helps the old man cut firewood, and Wu Xun has medical skills.
The news spread quickly in the small village, and free consultations were provided to farmers. For a time, Old Man Wang's family was full of people.
"Are you tired?" Song Hanzhuo handed a handkerchief to Wu Xun and asked with a smile. These days were the happiest and most relaxing days for him. He worked at sunrise and rested at sunset. There were no disputes and busyness in the court.
There is no bustling city, only tranquility and comfort.
Wu Xun shook his head, wiped his face, checked his pulse and said with a smile, "My injury is almost healed. I can go back in a few days." As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of a horse neighing outside the door.
"Girl, who are you looking for?" Old Man Wang asked suspiciously when he saw someone riding a tall horse and holding a sword.
"Have you ever seen these two people?"
"Qingyun!" Wu Xun heard the commotion and ran out to see, it turned out to be Qingyun Huanyuntang Yunli and others.
"County Master!" Qingyun's hanging heart finally relaxed, "I'm worried about my death." In the past few days, she led people to search the lower part of the cliff, but there was no trace of the two people. Knowing that Yuntang
After receiving the news from Song Hanzhuo, Yunli and Yunli rushed over.
"Everything is going well in Beijing."
Qingyun's eyes flickered a little, and then he said, "Everything is fine."
"Your Highness!"
Mr. and Mrs. Wang looked in disbelief at the two people who had lived in their house for such a long time. One was the county head and the other was the prince. They suddenly felt that their little courtyard was full of brilliance.
"Common people see the prince, see the county lord."
"Old Uncle Wang, Aunt Wang, get up quickly." Wu Xun quickly helped the two of them up and said, "I also want to thank you for taking care of me these days."
"The county master is making serious remarks." Old Man Wang said in fear. This is the county master. When has such a big shot come to their house? His old woman even asked the prince to fetch water and chop firewood. Thinking of these, Old Wang felt that his heart was about to stop.
.
Wu Xun handed a piece of Mingyue Pavilion's token to Aunt Wang and said, "In the future, if anything happens, you two will hold this as Mingyue Pavilion in the capital, and someone will help you."
Aunt Wang glanced at Old Man Wang, took it carefully with both hands, and said, "Thank you, County Master."
"There are also these coins, take them, there will be many disturbances these days." Wu Xun took a purse from Qing Yun and stuffed it into the hands of the old couple. After making some arrangements, he followed Qing Yun into the carriage.
.
Song Hanzhuo was silent from beginning to end, as if he had returned to the inhumane Prince Zi Ling in an instant. No one noticed that the prince who was in charge of the power of life and death glanced across the courtyard, and there was something strange about it.
Nostalgic.
Supported by the old couple, who stood at the door of their courtyard and watched a pair of carriages and horses disappear into the distance, Aunt Wang stretched out her hand to nudge the people around her and said, "Old man, pinch me to see if I'm dreaming."
Old Man Wang stretched out his hand and pinched her hard, and Aunt Wang immediately screamed in pain. It was not a dream. Shouldn't the prince's wife be the princess? How to call the county princess? I'm afraid the two old people will never know that they contributed to it.
The happiest couple in the Xuanyue Dynasty.
"Xun'er." Wu Xun was about to step into the house when Song Hanzhuo called out to her. Wu Xun turned around in confusion, her hands went cold. Song Hanzhuo thrust an ordinary smooth stone into her hand. This was his
Wu Xun stretched out his hand to hold it when he brought it back from the small courtyard. He smiled at him, turned around and stepped into Ji's house. Danzhu, Yuzhu and others came out to welcome him, "Madam, you are finally back."
"Where's Xi'er?" Wu Xun glanced around but didn't see the little girl who was looking forward to it. Then he thought, "Is that girl showing her temper again?" Seeing Danzhu and Yuzhu lowering their heads and saying nothing, there was a feeling in his heart.
With an ominous premonition, he asked in a cold voice, "Where is Xi'er?!"
"Miss, she has locked herself in her room since she came back from Yuntian Temple and didn't say a word." Danzhu said worriedly.
As soon as he stepped into Ji Mianxi's yard, he saw the thrush and dark eyebrow guarding the door, her beautiful eyebrows slightly frowning, "Who is waiting inside?"
Huamei hurriedly saluted and said, "Young Master and Young Master Yan are inside. The young lady will not let anyone in except the two of them."
Wu Xun opened the door, glanced around the room, and walked gently into the inner room. He saw Ji Ernuo and Yan Ruiyuan guarding the bed, saying softly to the little man in the corner,
"Xier, do you think this looks good?"
The little girl's eyes turned dryly and drooped lifelessly, neither happy nor sad, as if nothing in the outside world could shake her.
"Xie'er..."
"Mother." The two teenagers turned around in surprise when they heard the voice, and automatically made room for Wu Xun, "Noer." Wu Xun looked up and down at the thin young man, and Yan Ruiyuan still looked at Wu Xun coldly.
Nodding, the two teenagers looked at each other and exited in tacit agreement.
Wu Xun hid in front of the little girl, touched the girl's head lovingly, and said softly, "Xier, mother is back." The little girl moved and raised her head, as if to confirm the identity of the person in front of her.
After a long time, the figure asked hoarsely, "Is sister back?" Wu Xun burst into tears instantly, stretched out his arms to hug Ji Mianxi, and said reproachfully, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
"Mother!" the little girl cried loudly, "Is my sister dead? I was wrong, I was wrong, he was not my father... he was a puppet, it was me who killed my sister..." At the moment of getting Wu Xun's answer
, the last line of defense in the little girl's heart collapsed, and all hope was gone. As soon as she closed her eyes, there was the scene of Princess Luoan being pierced by a sword, and the scene of her attracting the man in black in the dark night.
, covered in blood, and there was nothing she could do.
"It's okay, it's okay." Wu Xun comforted with tears in her eyes. She had never been a good mother and never protected her children well.
After a long time, Ji Mianxi fell asleep in his arms, with tears on her face. He carried her to the bed with great distress, stayed with her for a long time, and then ordered his servants to prepare some light meals.
"Madam, Concubine Xian hanged herself in the cold palace." Yuzhu hurriedly walked in and reported. Wu Xun's eyes were slightly cold and he sneered, "It's an advantage for her."
"Has Guan Xu's body been found?"
"Found it." Yuzhu said. When he found Guan Xu, he was smashed into meat patties. His whole body was bloody and miserable. If it weren't for his clothes and the token on his body, no one would believe it.
The man who died miserably was the Prime Minister, who was once a powerful man in the capital.
"Where are those secret guards?" Wu Xun picked up the hot tea on the table, his cold fingers regained a little warmth, and his cold eyes were filled with murderous intent. Only then did Yu Zhu feel that this was the real Wu Xun.
"Some of them escaped, and a few are imprisoned in the dungeon."
With a sip of hot tea in her belly and a bloodthirsty look, she would not let any of these people go. These secret guards kept in captivity at home have one characteristic. As long as their master gives an order, they will never give up until the goal is achieved, even if the master dies. This
The order will still be executed, so these people must die!
"How's it going over there in Xuezhai?" Wu Xun looked at the blood-red clouds on the horizon. A cold voice sounded in the hall. When she thought of the life that had withered, her heart was filled with pain. She was too careless to hold her hostage, and this time
The price was so heavy that she almost couldn't bear it.
