ask tang gl

Gu Shangru sighed and told the coachman to speed up.Putting down the curtain, he whispered to Ling Lan: "When we get to the city, I'll send someone to find a doctor and show it to my cousin."

"My servant thanked Mr. Shangru on behalf of the master." Ling Lan nodded, very grateful.

The wheels of the carriage rolled quickly. The carriage that set off from Hedong to the vicinity of Chang'an was guarded by a group of armored soldiers.The journey was fairly safe, the leading general had worked with Gu Chong for many years, and was also an iron-blooded man trained on the battlefield, so naturally he would not take bandits seriously.Strong soldiers and strong horses, except for the unremarkable and simple carriage surrounded by the middle, no one would be so short-sighted to send them to the door to seek death.

Getting closer to Chang'an, the leading general couldn't help becoming nervous.Although Chang'an is under the feet of the emperor, the depth of the water inside is not something reckless people like them can easily set foot on.When they came out, Gu Chong repeatedly asked to protect Gu Shangru and Hua Xun, and not to make any mistakes.

Approaching the woods, the trees are dense, and the leaves cover the sky.The afterglow of the setting sun pierced through the gaps in the leaves, and the warm yellowish color spread on the ground. The forest was so quiet that there were only the wheels of carts and the sound of horseshoes.After passing through the forest, the gurgling sound of the river could be heard in the distance, and suddenly a group of birds flew up in the distance, the general looked up, frowned, raised his hand and said to the people behind: "Be careful! I'm afraid this forest is not very safe, we have to get out of this forest quickly, if there is an ambush, it will be bad. Everyone, speed up a little bit! Give me some cleverness!"

"Yes!" The soldiers responded in unison, strengthening their defenses.

Gu Shangru frowned uncomfortably when he heard the shouts from outside. He always felt as if something was about to happen, his eyelids twitched, and he felt very uneasy.Hua Xun just drank a little water, although his complexion didn't improve, but after waking up, he felt much better.When she heard the general's words, she pondered for a while, then saw Gu Shangru's worried face, and smiled: "Brother Shangru's face is never without worry along the way. Don't worry, it's almost time to reach Chang'an. If you arrive in the city, you will be safe." Much more. But Brother Shangru, please relax a bit, even if something happens, we won’t be able to help you, right?”

"Cousin still wants to make brother Shangru laugh at this time," Gu Shangru said with a wry smile, "I am very worried about my cousin, let alone whether there is any danger here, if you don't get rest and medical treatment, I'm afraid you will be sick Yes. Cousin still takes good care of herself, don’t bother. General Wang is highly skilled in martial arts, and he will definitely protect us safe and sound.”

"Ah."

On the top of the mountain, a middle-aged man in fine clothes stood on a high place, looking at the carriages and guards passing by in a forest below.The man in black next to him had already unsheathed his sword, waiting for the middle-aged man to issue an order. After a while, the man in black asked in a low voice: "My lord, Hua Xun is about to leave the forest, and they will run away if you don't do anything else." !"

"Under the master's order, everyone is not allowed to set foot in Chang'an for Huaxun! Do it!" The middle-aged man waved his hand, and all the men in black who were hiding in the forest and on the mountain appeared.

A sharp arrow grazed the vegetation and flew towards the leader, General Wang.With years of experience in the battlefield and vigilance, General Wang subconsciously dodged when he heard the sound of the breaking wind. The feathered arrow brushed against General Wang's helmet and passed by a big tree not far away. The arrow sank into the trunk, and the arrow tail Still trembling.

General Wang raised his head, raised his sword and shouted: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Protect the carriage!" For a while, the horses were frightened and stomped around restlessly. An arrow hit the shoulders and thighs of two soldiers respectively, and blood flowed out from the wounds.

Seeing that someone was injured, General Wang said angrily: "Zhitie! Come on! Shoot arrows! They are not many in number, kill them all!"

"Kill!" Dozens of sharp arrows flew towards the carriage, and the surrounding soldiers tried their best to shoot them down, but some caught fish were nailed into the carriage.

Hearing the shouts of killing outside, Gu Shangru was so frightened that his face turned ashen, and he said anxiously: "Someone sneaked up, what should I do?"

Hua Xun also sat up, and heard General Wang's command Ruoding and the soldiers shot and killed several thieves with their backhands. Although she was also panicked, she was better than Gu Shangru: "Brother Shangru, don't worry, General Wang is a brave man. , I just saw that the terrain outside the forest is very narrow, and the right side is still a neat stone wall. They attacked from the left side, and I am afraid they will not be able to use it. If it is not for the people in the army, there will be relatively few arrows. This is near Chang'an. If the sergeant wants to If you want to kill me, you will definitely be noticed, so they should be family soldiers raised by someone. We will suffer a little loss if the family soldiers occupy the terrain, but their arrows will be exhausted soon. If they rush out to fight the king Fighting the generals, we have a [-]% chance of surviving, if they refuse to come out, we will definitely be able to escape!"

"How did my cousin know that this is a family soldier?" After hearing Hua Xun's analysis, Gu Shangru calmed down and became less nervous. The sound of arrows hitting the wooden boards of the carriage from time to time still made his eyelids twitch.

"This is the carriage of the Gu family. The Gu family is the mansion of General Longxiang. If the troops act recklessly, how can grandpa not know? No matter what army the generals are in, they need a warrant to leave the camp, and they also need a warrant to dispatch arrows." If it is a county soldier, it is close to Chang'an, I think Prince Ning's Mansion will not know that I am approaching Chang'an, if the county soldier attacked us, Zhongci would have known the news long ago. So this is undoubtedly a private soldier!"

Gu Shangru was silent, the shouting and killing outside gradually died down, and after a while it completely disappeared, Ling Lan said: "Master expected well, the fighting outside is over."

After a while, General Wang urged: "Get out of the forest quickly, I'm afraid the thief won't let it go so easily. Go!" The carriage drove out of the forest so fast that it didn't even have time to deal with the corpse.

"This corpse will rot soon, and if we don't deal with it properly, there will be a plague." Hua Xun sighed, "It's just that if we don't leave quickly, we won't be able to leave if we want to."

Gu Shangru was obviously frightened and didn't have the heart to talk about it with Hua Xun.However, he admired Hua Xun and wanted to feel sorry for him. An ordinary woman would be scared to death if she encountered such a scene. Hua Xun can calmly analyze success or failure and the identity of the murderer. A seven-foot man is ashamed of himself.

The carriage quickly drove into the woods, and the middle-aged man standing on the top of the mountain didn't seem to be angry, but said to the man in black beside him: "The master didn't order us to kill Hua Xun, since Hua Xun escaped, it's her fate big."

"How should the master explain it? Or should the subordinates send someone to chase after him?"

"No need, she won't be able to reach Chang'an City." The middle-aged man smiled coldly, watching the carriage drift away, "This land of dragons and tigers, if she, a weak woman, can really turn the world upside down, it can only be said that they It’s trash. People from Huafu haven’t set foot in Chang’an City for many years, let her take a look at the city wall.”

"Master is wise!"

The soldiers whipped their fast horses and sent the carriage out of the woods. General Wang heaved a sigh of relief and turned back to ask the people in the carriage: "Young Master, are you all right? Is anyone injured?"

Knowing that he was out of danger now, Gu Shangru breathed out a sigh of relief, and said overjoyedly: "It's all right!" He opened the curtain of the car and looked, but he didn't expect that the driver had changed to another soldier, and the driver who drove earlier was gone.

"The coachman was shot and killed just now, and General Shu made his own decision and ordered him to drive for the young master." Pulling the reins, General Wang explained to Gu Shangru.

The new coachman bowed to Gu Shangru, but Gu Shangru didn't say anything, just said: "Let's go to the city quickly, otherwise we will be in danger and it will be bad. You must protect the frame."

"Yes!" General Wang took the order and said to the convoy, "Let's go! Speed ​​up!"

Gu Shangru returned to the carriage, and the team started moving again.When you get out of the forest, you have to go through a grassland, and then you can approach the village, and you can go through the village to reach the city.The convoy was in order, and there was no time to wipe off the blood stains, making the silent guards look menacing.Occasionally, a few common people passed by and saw it, but they didn't dare to approach it, and walked away.

It was already getting dark. Soldiers in this day and age suffer from night blindness, and they can't see at night. Fortunately, Gu Shangru was in a hurry, and everyone had experienced fighting, so they all stepped faster for safety reasons, and finally entered the village before they could not see .There are lanterns hanging on the east side of the village, and two soldiers are leaning on the door frame with their arms in their arms, laughing and chatting. When they saw Hua Xun and his party coming from afar, they knew that they must be going to Chang'an, and they could afford carriages and armored soldiers. The guard didn't dare to be negligent, and hurried over to ask: "May I ask the general where you are from and where are you going?"

After all, General Wang was pampered and not night blind. Looking at the two soldiers, he wondered: "Before, there were no soldiers patrolling the village outside Beiman City, and you don't look like the village guards. What's the matter?" He was old, and his speech sounded like a veteran in the battlefield. When he asked such a question, the two soldiers looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.

The curtain of the car was lifted, Hua Xun came out from the inside, saw the two soldiers, thought for a while, couldn't help but his face changed, and quickly hid back.

When the two saw Hua Xun coming out, their eyes changed. General Wang pointed at one of them with his sword and said, "Tell me! Who are you?" The soldiers who had just experienced the bloody battle behind hurriedly surrounded Hua Xun's chariot and horses. , afraid of being attacked.

"We are following the order of the crown prince to welcome the head of Huai'an county into the city!" The man pointed at by the sword slid his throat and said very nervously.

Hua Xun, who hid in the carriage, looked very embarrassed, and said through gritted teeth, "I'm afraid we won't be able to survive tonight."

Gu Shangru also heard the conversation outside, and was wondering why Hua Xun made such a statement. Hua Xun looked at him and sighed: "If you really want to welcome us into Chang'an, you can welcome us at the city gate, and come to this village in Beimang to welcome us. I'm afraid it's because those who come are not kind and those who don't come." As soon as the voice fell, the curtain of the car was lifted, and the lights outside were brightly lit. General Wang came over and said in a low voice: "No, they took the token of King Ning's Mansion and said I want to take Miss Biao to Chang'an, there are 20 archers around, we only have [-] people, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist..."

"Please get off the car, Lord Huai'an!"

55. Big rage

After getting out of the car, she saw hundreds of torches surrounded her. Ling Lan followed Hua Xun, protecting Hua Xun nervously.Hua Xun reached out to stop her, took a step, and Ling Lan called out in a low voice: "Master!"

Hua Xun didn't respond, but just walked up to the leading soldier: "Who are you? Since the prince ordered you to come, what proof do you have?"

The soldier didn't speak, and stepped out of the way, a scholar in green clothes came out from behind, saluted Hua Xun respectfully, and said with a smile: "I've seen Yizhi, the county magistrate of Huai'an." The next is handsome and gentle.This person is very familiar.

"I don't know who it is, so it's Mr. Lin'an." Hua Xun smiled slightly, nodded and said, "I don't want to see you in Huacheng, but I can see you again in Beimang today."

Yi Zhi said: "My lord invites the county magistrate of Huai'an to come over to the mansion, and specially instructs his subordinates to wait for the magistrate here."

Hua Xun glanced around, and understood that Yi Zhi had blamed Chu Xian for all his credit and faults, and said with a smile: "I just met an assassin, the coachman died unfortunately, Xun and cousin Shangru are worrying that there is no one to lead the way, or Mr. Bo Cun is thoughtful, with Mr. Yi as an experienced coachman, Xun and his cousin will definitely be able to reach Chang'an safe and sound."

Yi Zhi was not angry when he was said to be a coachman on his way, but respectfully said: "It is an honor for me to be able to lead the horse and pedal for the county lord. County lord, please get in the carriage!" As a gesture, Hua Xun asked to go back.

Hua Xun glanced at him meaningfully, and returned to the carriage with Gu Shangru and Ling Lan.Back in the car, Gu Shangru said to her: "This man is so deep in the city, we have to be more careful."

"He won't hurt us." Hua Xun sighed, "Although I don't know what happened, but the prince sent Yi Lin'an to pick us up, Zhong Ci must not have known about it. According to the decree, the prince sent him here to tell us that he will not hurt us, so that we don't need to panic. But why did the prince do this? Could it be that Zhongci and the prince..." Duo Jia guessed to no avail, Hua Xun shook his head when he thought of this, He changed the subject, "I don't know where he will take us later, we will be safe when we come. With the protection of this group of people, I can finally feel at ease."

"Could it be that the group of assassins before was also sent by Prince Ning's Mansion?" Gu Shangru was still thinking about the assassination.

Before Hua Xun could answer, the carriage started to move, and the people outside spoke less. General Wang led people to surround and escort the carriage, while people from Prince Ning's Mansion surrounded General Wang and others, and the huge team drove towards the city.Yi Zhi rode in front of the carriage, turning his head to see what Hua Xun and the others were doing from time to time, his eyes met the vigilant General Wang, he smiled kindly and stopped looking back.

The person next to him was the soldier pointed at by General Wang just now, and he asked Yi Zhi curiously: "Since your son asked me not to bring Hua Xun and others to Chang'an, where are we going to place these people?"

"If you can't go to Chang'an, then take it to Bieye on the outskirts of Gyeonggi. Anyway, His Royal Highness King Ning is seriously ill, and he won't be able to come for a while." Yi Zhi didn't worry about where he was going at all, and even rented King Ning's house on the outskirts of Gyeonggi.

"Without King Ning's order, we took Huai'an county magistrate and Mr. Gu to Bieye without authorization, fearing that we will be held accountable afterwards."

"Don't worry, just say it's the son's order. When the investigation is over, the son will not deny it." Yi Zhi said with a smile, "What everyone wants the son to do is to find a good place for house arrest, but we I came according to her wishes. Brothers, hurry up and rush to Bieye to rest!"

The cool autumn wind blew over Huadu's black hair scattered on his shoulders. Huadu looked up at the flickering stars. The stars here change every day. A dark cloud drifted past, blocking the moonlight, and the light in the world became much darker.Huadu's complexion also darkened, and she heard someone sneaking in not far away, her eyes flickered for a moment, but she didn't make a sound.

Another sound of footsteps came from far to near, with vigorous and vigorous steps, it should be someone from the army.Huadu turned his head to look, Prince Ning's son Chu led the people over here, found that Huadu was looking at him, quickened his pace, stood still in front of her, and said, "Mr. Stop outside Chang'an City, I have completed your order."

Chu Xian's attitude towards Huadu is quite respectful, and it seems that he has some ideas about Huadu's ability to foresee the future.

"Your Majesty is here." Huadu nodded slightly, and said in a warm voice, "The elixir promised to the Majesty has already been sent to the Majesty's room, please remember to use it when you are here."

"Thank you, Mr. Xie Yu." Chu Xian looked happy, and couldn't wait to leave, "Then... I'll go now."

"Yes." Huadu agreed.Seeing Chu Xian go to her room quickly, the faint smile on the corner of her mouth disappeared completely.

A red dress came out from the corner, walked down the steps in the dark with a gloomy face, and said coldly: "Hua Jieyu, it's all right for you to instigate Chu Zhongci to refuse to ask Tang. You have a reason, but you actually did it with this Tempted by pills, ask Chu Bocun to arrest Wentang, are you really doing it for Wentang's sake, or are you forcibly interfering in her life in the name of doing her best!" Hua'an's face was extremely ugly.

Looking at Hua'an, Huadu said lightly: "You came up with this plan for me."

"You! I said I was joking and didn't ask you to execute it yourself!" Hua'an turned her head away angrily, and said angrily, "You have to know, if Wentang finds out that you are the one who made all of this one day, for the sake of that trouble The catastrophe caused by you keeps hindering her again and again, and you want to put her under house arrest, how disappointed she is in you!"

"I only want her to live." Huadu said in a deep voice, "Death is ahead, and Chang'an will be in turmoil soon. I will never let her be in danger, even if she knows these things." Her eyes were misty , but faintly glowing in the dark, it is a kind of firmness to what she is obsessed with, "I only want her to live, I have seen her die in front of me once, and I will not allow a second time!"

"Even if this is the case, you should tell her the truth instead of leaving her with no choice. If she knows that you forcibly violated the rules of heaven and showed up for her, she will not agree with you!" Hua An Looking at Huadu suddenly, she said, "She doesn't know anything about your fulfillment, your dedication, your pain, she doesn't know, what's the point of doing these things? She must be very disappointed in you...you are so cruel Selfish, Hua Jieyu!"

The corner of Huadu's mouth raised a smile, and he said dumbly: "If it is Chu Zhongci who is cursed, you must have gone too far than me."

"Impossible!" Hua An said resolutely, "Chu Zhongci has nothing to do with me. If it is Chu Zhongci who is punished by heaven, I will tell her the matter. It is her freedom to live and die. I will not take it lightly. Interfering!"

Huadu didn't speak, but the smile on the corner of his mouth seemed a little ironic.

"You said Chang'an was turbulent, but everything is calm now, how could it be turbulent? Even if the imperial power changes, the emperor is still in his prime, how could the emperor just sit back and watch the battle between the East Palace and Prince Ning's mansion? Moreover, Prince Ning was ill, and the prince did not act rashly. It's not what you worry about." Hua'an said a lot, but seeing that Huadu was still indifferent, he could only say bitterly, "Chu Zhongci didn't know about it, if he knew..."

"Tomorrow you go out of the city with me to meet Wentang." Huadu suddenly let go and said to her.

"Huh?" Hua'an was a little surprised by Huadu's enlightenment, and was even more flattered when she invited her to go out of the city together, "You...couldn't you have been stimulated by something and felt that you had done something wrong? Oh, you know what is asked in the mirror Tang's future is coming, if Ming Jing is right, then my cousin will die with Chu Zhongci without a place to die?"

Hua Du really wanted to stop Hua An's noisy mouth, so she turned and walked back on the way, and said lightly: "If you don't want to go, you can't force it."

"Hey! I didn't say I won't go! Hey! You said you would take me with you! Don't forget! Don't go back on your word!" Hua An yelled at her back, but unfortunately she didn't look back.

Hua'an kicked a stone sullenly, complaining, "Who is this? He doesn't listen carefully to what people say. Are he deaf?"

The stone flew into the dark corridor, and Chu Yan was following the maid carrying the palace lantern to the yard, with something hidden in her heart, when a hidden weapon flew in, she wanted to block it but was caught off guard, and hit her on the forehead: "Ah ——" She was startled, covered her face and said angrily, "What?"

The maid looked back and said in a panic while protecting Chu Yan: "There are assassins! Protect the princess!"

Chu Yan put down his hand and pulled the maid away, and looked at the thing that attacked her just now. It was not a hidden weapon, but an ordinary stone.Chu Yan suppressed his anger, looked around, and shouted: "Get out soon? What kind of skill is hitting people with stones?"

Hua An twisted her slender waist, step by step, step by step, and every step of the way Shenglian was so seductive that she had nothing to do with the prostitutes in the brothel. She thought she was charming and leaned on the railing and said to Chu Yan: "Yo, who am I supposed to hit?" , It turned out to be our little princess. Come here, sister, see if it hurts." Leaping lightly, she climbed over the railing and approached Chu Yan's face, and looked carefully, there was a small piece of red, which seemed to be really injured.

Hua'an didn't want to hurt Chu Yan sincerely, it was just an accident, so she leaned close to Chu Yan's forehead without any guilt, blew lightly, and said softly: "Come on, sister will blow it to you. It hurts. Oh, look at this poor little girl, this delicate skin is all red." Ignoring Chu Yan's gritted teeth and almost ferocious face, Hua'an took out a can of white medicine from her arms, and it was not lukewarm. He poured out a little medicine and was about to wipe it on Chu Yan's swollen forehead, but Chu Yan gave her a vicious look and hid.

"I said, can you stay still? I'm just going to give you some medicine!" Hua An pressed her shoulder and said to the obedient maid, "Lift up the lamp!"

The maid hurriedly raised the lantern, Chu Yan took a deep breath, knocked down Hua An's words, tried to restrain his anger and said: "You don't need to be kind, you hurt me and you came to the doctor, did you do it on purpose?"

"Hey, I said Chu Xiaopang, I was kind enough to help you, what did you say?" Hua An puffed her cheeks and said angrily, "I didn't hit you on purpose, why did you suddenly appear here!"

"It's nothing good to meet you," Chu Yan said with a cold face, "They are all from the Huafu, so can't you learn the dignified manners of Xuewentang? This is the palace, not your ordinary family! Fortunately, the one you hit was Me, if you hit my elder brother, my father, or even the adults who came to visit, how can you take this responsibility!"

56. Inevitable fate

Hua An took a deep breath, was half-dead by Chu Yan's words, and immediately pointed to Chu Yan's nose and said: "Okay, I can hear it, do you think I am barbaric and rude? Chu Zhongci, let me tell you, I really didn't do this on purpose today, but if I knew you would come now, I would kick a blade instead of a stone! Why don't I ask Cousin Tang, but what a good thing you Chu Zhongci is You are not as good as Hua Jieyu in terms of ability, you are not as good as Chu Bocun in terms of power, you are not as good as Hua Wentang in terms of determination, even the freedom you want most, you are not as good as me! Look at you, majestic princess, Even your own life has to be traded by power! Do you have the nerve to criticize me? I would rather be a vulgar person who can make his own way than a hypocrite like you who wants to resist but keeps being a dog!"

"Okay," Chu Yan was already full of anger, but now he was fueled by Hua'an's poisonous mouth, panting angrily, "Hua Crow, don't think that I dare not touch you, don't you think you are free? Is it? Let me tell you, the freedom you have will end today! You just wait to become my elder brother's wife!"

"What did you say?" Hua An was stunned and asked.

Chu Yan sneered and walked away.The maid with the lamp saluted, and secretly said to Hua'an: "The prince proposed to King Ning to marry the young lady as his wife. Today, the princess heard this and quarreled with the prince for some reason, and he was furious. Calm down, I bumped into Miss, please don't blame Miss." After saying that, before Hua An could say anything, she quickly followed Chu Yan.

Looking at the back of the two leaving, Hua An stood there blankly.It took a while to understand why Chu Yan was so angry. She said in a daze, "Chu Yan wants to marry me? Then if I marry Chu Yan, will Chu Zhongci call me sister-in-law?" Still confused, Hua Kishi didn't know, so he had to go back with Chu Yan.

Huaxun was settled in Wangfu Bieye on the outskirts of Gyeonggi Province. This place is smaller than Huafu because it was built by Ningwangfu. The style is quite different from the elegance of Huafu. , extremely luxurious.Hua Xun was not surprised by the splendor here. Gu Shangru lived in a simple house, and it was rare for this kind of place, but he was not a curious person. It's over, you are not feeling well, you should take a good rest after so many days of traveling and traveling. I will ask Mr. Yi to ask a doctor to come over and feel your pulse."

Hua Xun stopped Gu Shangru who was going to look for Yi Zhi, glanced at Ling Lan who was making the bed, and said with a smile: "Brother Shangru is worried about Wentang's safety these days, and it is very hard to guard Wentang all the time, so please ask Shangru Brother is going to rest, it's so late, you might as well wait until dawn before inviting the doctor."

Gu Shangru was indeed very tired, and he still wanted to persevere, but Yi Zhi brought the medical craftsman to the door to ask for an interview.

"Come in, Mr. Yi." Hua asked.

The two entered the door and bowed to salute.Yi Zhi said: "I see that the county lord's complexion is not very good, and I'm afraid that he's tired from traveling these days, so he wants to bring a medical craftsman over to give the county lord his pulse and prescribe some prescriptions."

"Mr. Yi is thoughtful." Hua Xun didn't say anything, and asked the doctor to come over to take his pulse, and said to Yi Zhi, "Since Mr. is here, please sit down."

"Thank you, County Lord, for giving me your seat."

When Gu Shangru was also seated, Hua Xun said, "I wonder when we will be able to enter the palace? This doesn't seem to be Chang'an."

"His Royal Highness Ning fell ill, and the son means to invite the princess into the city after His Royal Highness recovers." Yi Zhi smiled, not minding Gu Shangru's disbelief at all, "The county princess might as well stay here for a while , regain your spirits. If you need anything, tell your subordinates, the prince has said, but whatever the county lord asks, he will not refuse."

"Thank you, my son, for your kindness. Thinking about the beautiful scenery here, the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is a spiritual place with the green hills on its back and the big river facing it. It is not a bad idea to cultivate here for a while. I have nothing else to do. Bring a word to the princess, just say that everything is fine here."

Yi Zhi blinked his eyes, and said sincerely: "I will live up to my trust." When the doctor saw it, he stood up and said, "Then, please rest early, the county magistrate, and I will retire."

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell the county lord that a large number of guards will be sent here to protect the county lord's safety from assassins." backed out.

Hua Xun lowered her face and winked at Ling Lan.Ling Lan understood, went to the gate of the hall and looked around, felt that there were guards everywhere, closed the gate of the hall, turned her head and whispered to Hua Xun: "Two people are guarding ten steps away from the door, and there is also a captain with guns. The sergeant is patrolling not far away, I am afraid that the entire Bieye will be surrounded by the army of Prince Ning's Mansion."

"Is this going to put us under house arrest?" Gu Shangru suddenly stood up and said angrily, "How unreasonable!"

"Brother Shangru, don't be impatient. Now we are the guests of Prince Ning's Mansion, and the guests who came to Zhongci's wedding. The Prince Ning's Mansion will not treat us like this. Besides, what is really going to happen here, the emperor You can rest easy, I don’t think it’s King Ning or the prince who will be hostile to us. The purpose of the people who assassinated us before was also to prevent us from going to Chang’an. Something shocking is about to happen, let's wait and see what happens for a few days." Seeing Gu Shangru's hesitant expression, Hua Xun knew that he was unwilling to be trapped, so he smiled and said, "Brother Shangru really thinks that we If it is not good here, someone will definitely come to pick us up. Both Zelan and Peilan are my confidantes. I want them to return to Huafu to see how the father is doing. Baiqing stays in Gufu. If we stay in Gufu for ten days If there is no news within, they will tell our father and grandfather about our disappearance. It would be fine if they didn't mobilize so many people to arrest us, but they held up torches and stopped cars in front of the villagers. If something happened to us, we would rather The palace cannot get away with it."

"Cousin is really smart, not as good as a stupid brother." Gu Shangru relaxed a lot, but it wasn't because after Hua Xun's analysis, he believed that the people in Prince Ning's Mansion were reliable, but because he was expecting that Hua Mansion and Gu Mansion would definitely send people to find Ning. An important person in the palace.Hua Junhou loves face so much, and Gu Chong loves the younger generation so much, so he will not stop coming.

"It's getting so late, Brother Shangru, let's go back and rest earlier." Hua Xun felt very tired, the running around along the way was nothing, the most important thing was mental torture, repeatedly thinking about these accidents, and distinguishing whether it was the enemy or not. If you are a friend, you have to speculate on what happened in Chang'an.

Gu Shangru bid farewell tactfully, and after he left, Hua Xun rubbed his forehead, washed up and went to bed under the service of Linglan.

There was no dream all night, when Huaxun woke up, it was already past the morning meal, but she only felt very heavy in a daze, and her body was so tired that she couldn't even open her eyes.The room was very quiet, Ling Lan thought she hadn't woken up yet, so she didn't dare to disturb her, she wanted to say that she hasn't had a good rest after traveling for so long, so it's better to let her sleep comfortably.Hua Xun's throat hurts, and her forehead hurts like a pinprick.She tried her best to open her eyes, only to open a thin slit, only to see a woman in white clothes standing silently beside her bed, with a faint scent of crabapple lingering at the tip of her nose, she felt that this woman was very familiar, so she I want to call her, but I can't remember who it is for a while, I feel uncomfortable all over, and my face is burned like it has been burned.

Hua Du stood beside Hua Xun's couch, focusing on Hua Xun's tangled brows. She felt that Hua Xun seemed to be sick, so she reached out her hand to touch her, stopped in mid-air, and withdrew her hand sadly.He turned around and called Hua An, who was sitting nearby with his legs crossed, knocking on the melon seeds and spitting out the skins of the melon seeds, came over: "Come and see if she is sick."

Hua'an rolled her eyes and didn't move: "Aren't you a god, why don't you see for yourself?"

"Wu Ya—" Hua Du's expression turned cold.

"Okay, okay, come, let me take a look." Hua'an put the melon seeds back into her sachet, clapped her hands, walked slowly to the side of the couch, and tried Huaxun's forehead with the back of her hand. The temperature was terribly hot, so hurry up Withdrawing his hand, he grinned and said, "I'm so stupid to ask my cousin Tang! Why is she so sick!"

Huadu pursed his lips, with worried and distressed expression on his face, he turned to go out.

Hua'an stopped her: "Hey, where are you going? Let me tell you, once you go out, your identity will be exposed. Don't think you can show off with that broken umbrella, just stay here for me, I'll call the doctor to come over!" Pressing Hua Du and letting her sit next to Hua Xun, he rolled his eyes again angrily, and said with a breath, "You two really don't make people worry."

With a sway and a big face, Hua An didn't worry about being caught as an assassin at all.Sitting next to Hua Xun, Hua Du watched Hua Xun struggling in sleep with his eyes full of pain. He was powerless to deal with her condition, and could only sit and wait while he was so anxious.She took out the brocade handkerchief from her sleeve, and wiped the sweat from Hua Xun's temples, her movements were so gentle that she would not wake Hua Xun up.

Hua Xun seemed to feel Hua Du in his sleep, his breathing became heavier, and he mumbled something vaguely, Hua Du couldn't hear clearly, so he could only bend down and get close to Hua Xun's lips.After listening hard for a long time, I finally understood that Hua Xun was calling her name.Hua Xun kept shouting in her sleep: "... Jie Yu... why..."

Huadu knew that her behavior would bring great harm to Huaxun.Hua Xun's life in Hua Xun has always been peaceful. Ever since her mother passed away, everything about Hua Xun has changed, and she, who vowed to protect Hua Xun, actually retreated when Hua Xun needed a trusted person the most. ... She must be in pain, right?Huadu sighed softly.

"Wen Tang, it would be great if you weren't so persistent." Hua Du smiled with an indescribable bitterness in his smile, "In this way I don't have to worry about your death... But, you have come to Chang'an after all. "

No matter how you try to prevent it, you still have to come to Chang'an, you still have to meet a death calamity...so if you are destined to encounter a death calamity, all I can do is to prolong your life for you.Forgive my selfishness, forgive me for not being able to watch you die in front of me again, you may not be able to appreciate the pain of knowing that you are going to die, but I can't change anything.

After all, it is... powerless.

57. Doubt

Hua Xun's internal organs were burning uncomfortably, she tried to open her eyes to see, she heard someone talking to her, but she didn't know what that person was talking about, and didn't know if that person was Lily of the Valley.My mind is chaotic, and I remember one thing over and over again. It must be that I fell ill because of the exhaustion of traveling and not taking a good rest.She thought to herself that she couldn't fall ill, otherwise she couldn't watch Chu Yan fall into danger if the revenge was not avenged and something happened in Chang'an.

Huadu looked at her small nose and jade-like face, thought for a while, and took out a simple and unpretentious grass from her sleeve, hesitating for a long time before daring to give Huaxun medicine.This grass is named "Resurrection Grass", also known as "Life and Death Grass". If you can't bear the properties of the medicine, you will suffer from the burning of your internal organs.Life and death depend on God's will, and there is only one Resurrection Grass in her hand. She is not concerned about the preciousness of the treasure, but also worried that Hua Xun will not be able to survive the mortal fetus after eating it, and it will not be beautiful.

After waiting for a while, Huadu picked a small leaf, gently lifted her chin, opened her lips, and put
