"When the imperial envoy arrived, Su Xin was still in the palace. The imperial envoy repeated his old trick, pretending to tease Su Xin, and found poison from her arms.
This time the imperial envoy directly exposed the poison and questioned Su Xin about the instigation behind the scenes, but Su Xin denied it in every possible way. So the imperial envoy gave her two choices: one is to confess the crime, and the other is to commit herself to him."
"Ah?" I was shocked again: "Then...how to choose Su Xin?"
"In panic, Su broke away from the imperial envoy and rushed out of the door, and then ran out of King An's palace."
"Thrown into a well and died?"
Xiao Mu asked back: "Generally, in this situation, what would you do if it were you?"
"I..." I scratched my head: "The plan was exposed, and even the poison was taken away. The mission must not be completed, but if he died like this, what should I do with my sister? I... I will tell you what happened.
Let them retreat when they see the difficulty, and temporarily give up the idea of killing Prince An."
Xiao Mu smiled: "Yes, the imperial envoy also analyzed it in this way at the time. Su Xin has been admiring King An for a long time. If it were not for her sister, she would not attack King An at all. So this time the plan was exposed, she was very angry
I was so relaxed that I didn’t even bother to tidy up my clothes and rushed out.”
I saw Xiao Mu stop and asked anxiously: "What happened next?"
"The imperial envoy originally arranged for two guards to follow Su Xin, but who would have thought that they would actually lose her. After learning the news, the imperial envoy immediately notified all the guards to search together. As a result... Su Xin was found in a dry well near Leng Palace.
Corpse."
"Su Xin died? How did she die?"
"Nuan Xin arrived and saw that her sister was disheveled and had a hairpin tied to her right temple. She shouted that she wanted the imperial envoy to pay for her life. It turned out that Su Xin had complained to Nuan Xin many times in order to get rid of the imperial envoy's entanglement.
The imperial envoy wants to do something wrong."
Listening to this, I felt a little sympathy for the imperial envoy whom I had never met before. I wondered how he would prove his innocence after being wronged.
Xiao Mu sighed: "The imperial envoy quickly found the real culprit among the onlookers, but before he could start questioning, the eunuch suddenly bit the poison in his mouth and committed suicide. At the same time, the man's room was also burned down.
Get up and everything will come to nothing."
I felt a chill rush through my body, and I felt that the power hidden behind all this should not be underestimated.
"Of course King An will not torture his friends for a palace maid, because although the imperial envoy's plan was wrong, he did not intend to harm Su Xin's life.
In the end, King An gave Nuan Xin a large reward and prepared a good coffin for Su Xin. He allowed Nuan Xin to leave the palace and send Su Xin back home for a grand burial.
Everything seems to be over.
Before leaving, the imperial envoy rushed to the palace gate and apologized again for Su Xin's death, but Nuan Xin said to the imperial envoy: I hope you will take care of yourself, I will remember you in my life."
"This... Nuan Xin... she was once a palace maid? I think she has an extraordinary temperament in her movements." I sighed, and then became worried about Nuan Xin's fate: "It is said that the imperial envoy knows everything, since I even give you these
Having said that, he must also know that Nuan Xin wants to seek revenge on him, but did he say that he would deal with Nuan Xin in this way?"
Xiao Mu smiled and said: "The imperial envoy is willing to give her a chance to see if she has the ability to kill him."
"Ahhh? Are you willing to let Nuan Xin kill the imperial envoy?" I'm afraid I heard it wrong. Long Yuhan said that the imperial envoy doesn't look like an official. I didn't expect that this idea is really unusual.
Xiao Mu waved his fan and went to the other end of the alley. He waved his hand and said, "You can go back and recuperate. Aren't you going to see Li Huichun for dressing change the day after tomorrow? If you have time then, you can go to Long Yuhan's house."
Have fun."
"What do you mean?" I was confused and shouted at Xiao Mu's back, but no one answered.
The dressing will be changed the day after tomorrow? Huh? How did he know that? Did Li Huichun tell him? No, Xiao Mu also doubted Li Huichun. When did he trust him so much again?
When I got home, I saw Wang Jiajia cuddling next to my mother-in-law, and the two of them were talking about something.
"Brother Jianghu, how are you? Have you found Sister Nuanxin?"
"Oh, don't worry, Xiao Mu will find her."
A-niang still frowned: "Xiao Mu? I always hear you talking about this person. Is he reliable? Why is this kid Nuan Xin so troublesome?"
"Xiao Mu is a close confidant of the imperial envoy, so of course he is reliable. He told us not to worry about this matter." I said with certainty. Judging from A Niang's expression, Wang Jiajia must have told her everything she knew.
"Hey, I hope God will bless you." Auntie sighed: "I'm going to cook. You two can talk."
"Brother Jianghu, is the person Sister Nuanxin wants to kill really the imperial envoy? Then... what will they do to her? If the imperial envoy wants to kill her, it will definitely chill the people. After all, she is a heroine, and many people like her very much.
Hers." Wang Jiajia asked worriedly, eager to help Nuan Xin find a glimmer of hope.
It is now certain that Nuan Xin wants to kill the imperial envoy. However, it remains to be verified that she is the heroine Baiyun Fairy.
Because four years ago, the story of Baiyun Fairy killing the adulterous thief Hua Butterfly was already familiar in Xiangzhou City, and if Nuan Xin was really a palace maid, she should still be serving Prince An in the palace at that time.
Also, Long Yuhan told me that in the winter of the fourteenth year of Tianbao, his fat and thin master led his convoys to engage in a fierce battle with the Tibetans outside the south of the city. Later, Long Yuhan was rescued by Fairy Baiyun. Fairy Baiyun at that time
To be able to defeat powerful enemies, his martial arts skills must be very strong. At that time, Nuan Xin had only been out of the palace for half a year, so it was impossible for him to have that ability.
I looked up and saw that the sun was already heading west, and the whole courtyard seemed to be covered with golden gauze. I touched the dressing on my left eye and it seemed that Li's rejuvenating medicine was quite effective, and it didn't hurt at all.
I went back and forth between my home and the city center several times today, and I was really tired. I ate, took medicine, and fell asleep quickly.
In the hazy night, a white figure passed over the roofs of each house, like a white dove flying down.
I tightened my ears and still caught the sound like spring silkworms eating mulberry leaves. I suddenly sat up from the bed, put my feet on the ground, and jumped onto the roof.
The white figure in front stopped and looked back at me. Although she was wearing a white gauze hat on her head and couldn't see her face clearly, she felt like an old friend.
She raised the sword in her hand. I couldn't tell what color the sword was, but it looked like it was a sword. Although she didn't speak, I still understood her meaning, so I ran towards her quickly.
Her lightness skills were extraordinary, even though she was in the air, she felt like walking on flat ground. For some reason, wind blew up under my feet, and the two of them landed in a sea of flowers like butterflies.
Where did this sea of flowers come from in Xiangzhou City? I don’t know what kind of flowers they are. They are colorful and very beautiful. I identified them carefully for a while, and I only recognized the white gardenias, which have a delicate and elegant fragrance and are unique.
I picked one and approached her. Through the veil, I could feel that she was also looking forward to something.
I swallowed secretly, slowly raised my hand, and took off her veil.
It is indeed her, Mrs. Mu!
She looked at me tenderly and smiled sweetly.
I also laughed, and an indescribable feeling of happiness surged through my body. I gently inserted the gardenia flower in her bun, and saw her purse her red lips and move towards me...
"Li Jianghu! What time is it? Are you not working today?"
A voice exploded like spring thunder. I was so shocked that I sat up and looked around. I could only see the bare walls of my house. Where did the beauty from the sea of flowers come from?
It turned out to be a dream, haha, so beautiful! I smiled bitterly and continued to start my day's work.
Everything is the same as before, but I feel a little uncomfortable seeing things with one eye today. Even the people passing by looked at me, which made me feel a little uncomfortable.
I glanced at Wang Jiajia next to me, and suddenly I felt a pity for her. Didn’t that ugly scar on her left face often attract people’s strange looks? It turns out that I had never experienced it before, I just felt that she loved her.
I lower my head and love to cover my face. Only today did I realize how uncomfortable it is to be "looked at differently" by others.
"Come on, Jiang Hu, please order some." Uncle Fu handed me the stringed copper coins: "Are your eyes feeling better?"
"It's okay. Doctor Li asked me to change the dressing tomorrow." I smiled, took out six copper plates and pushed them back: "Here are two bowls of noodles."
"Two bowls?"
I smiled sheepishly: "Two bowls."
"Okay, let's cook two bowls of noodles for Jiang Hu."
When the noodles were on the table, Wang Jiajia was extremely surprised: "Brother Jianghu, couldn't they have made a mistake? This is... clear soup noodles?"
I smiled proudly: "I come here every day to deliver tofu, so you can count yourself as one of my own. Eat it quickly. Didn't you say you would go shopping around later to see if you can find a warm heart?"
"Fifth brother, let's have a piece of cake and a bowl of tofu pudding!" a familiar voice shouted.
"Brother Song!" I waved my hand, feeling a little excited. It seemed like I hadn't seen him for a few days.
"Hey, brother Jianghu." Song Erlang came over quickly, nodded and smiled at Wang Jiajia, and his eyes fell on my face again: "What's wrong with your eyes?"
"It's okay, I fell a little bit."
"Oh, I haven't seen you for a while. Are you okay, aunt?"
"Ok. What about you?"
"Hey," Song Erlang sighed: "Now that the weather is getting colder, I'm afraid my old man's old habit will happen again. When the weather changes, he will cough and wheeze."
I looked at him sympathetically: "Are you going to see a doctor then?"
"Looking at it, Doctor Luo said that this kind of disease cannot be cured and can only be treated with medicine. Haha, the little money I work hard to earn every day is only enough to buy medicine for him."
I touched my left eye and said, "Would you like to try another doctor? Dr. Li from Huichun Hall seems to have pretty good medical skills."
"Dr. Luo from Xinglin Medical Center has been treating Aye for many years, and I am familiar with the symptoms. Huichun Hall, haha, the government funded half of the money to establish it, and the doctor is a friend of the imperial envoy, so he may not be easy to get along with.
.”
I thought about Li Huichun's arrogant expression and the expensive magic medicine he gave me, and smiled bitterly: "Yeah, I can't stand that Dr. Li either."
"Here, here is a big cake and a bowl of beancurd. Please use it slowly." When Ah Wu saw Song Erlang sitting at our table, he brought the food over.
"Well, your tofu pudding is still so delicious." Song Erlang glanced at our bowls while eating: "You don't dare to eat plain noodles now? This Mrs. Mu is really not simple, she is really occupied.
It can’t be cheap at all.”
I took a bite of the omelette and smiled slightly: "Well, people have to make money."
"Hey, have you heard? Madam Mu has been very close to a young catcher from the Sky Eye Team recently." Song Erlang said mysteriously: "I went to the east of the city to deliver goods last night and saw them walking hand in hand at the night market.
"
"Oh." I lowered my head and ate the noodles, and couldn't help but think of that dream again, that distant dream. This chapter has been completed!
