since your farewell

A few days later, Grand Master Cassia came back.

Depressed? Feeling a little more relaxed, Zhou Nan couldn't wait to go outside the door to meet her. Although Cassia is honored as a master, she is not very old. A woman in her 30s is wearing a simple dress. The gray shirt, the collar and cuffs are all snow-white? Cotton and linen fabric, walking lightly?

"Master!"

Zhou Nan ran towards her, feeling agitated. Cassia has been with her for eight years and exists like a teacher or a mother.

"Nan Nan",

Cassia? Surrounded her with a smile,

"Why do you still look like a child? I haven't seen you for a few months. Let me see if I've lost weight?"

These words are a bit like Wei Jun, Zhou Nan's eyes were wet, and she buried her head on her shoulders and shook her head, Situ Che fed her well, now she is gone, and the chef in the back is following her orders Cooking, Zhou Nan also loves to eat? Although she has left, she has made good arrangements for her basic necessities of life.

"Your face is much better",

Cassia? It's a bit strange. Her apprentice knows too well that her health has been bad and her appetite is not high.

"Princess? Hire a chef?",

Ming Yueyue explained with a smirk, and Jue Ming showed his original expression, and the three of them walked towards the princess mansion.

Before entering the house, Jueming was attracted by a fluffy little golden ball in the courtyard. Zhan Hong has just learned to crawl and can’t walk yet. The whole yard is full of its activities. Rolling on the ground, often can't roll back?, lying on the ground on all fours and screaming.

As soon as Zhou Nan approached, she looked at her pitifully with her wet blue crystal eyes, Ming Yue was funny and angry, a bad thing, dare to deceive the princess?!Stepped forward and grabbed it by the back of the neck and turned it over.

The little wolf lowered his head and sniffed, and carefully moved to Zhou Nan's side. Then his calf bent and rolled, and he fell on his back on Zhou Nan's white and clean boots, revealing his soft belly, wanting to greet her Come and touch.

Cassia? Can't help being amused by the little guy,

"Nan Nan, this little wolf is so clingy to you? Ah."

"Master, it is the cub born by Changhong",

A different kind of emotion flashed in Zhou Nan's eyes. He squatted down to cover up, rubbed his belly as he wished, and then picked him up to show Master Cassia. The wolf cub was satisfied and had a triangle. The rudimentary? Small ears are bent, spit out a powdery? small tongue, and the two legs are kicking in the air in vain, very cute.

The hair on its body is still sparse, but unlike its snow-white mother, its hair is golden, probably following its father.

"Changhong?"

Cassia looked at the little wolf carefully. The wolf cub's eyes were warning her not to get close. She smiled indifferently. It was too small to have any threatening effect.Cassia was stuck on its neck and limbs, and when he took over his hand, it could only whine to Zhou Nan for help. Zhou Nan ignored it this time, and he was still angry at first. Indifferent and pitiful, he closed his eyes and dared not struggle.

"Did Changhong die? When, really? There was no rainbow?"

Although I read it from the letter, Cassia still asked again without giving up.

"No",

Zhou Nan is very sure.

Cassia bowed her head in thought, there was no rainbow, there were three little wolves, and the little wolf was not Changhong. Her expression became serious, and she put the little wolf back into Zhou Nan's arms.

"Let me take a look at that bowl of blood."

Ming Yue had already prepared, took her into the study, and took out the bowl of fresh blood from the ice cellar.

Zhan Hong's nose is the most sensitive, and it feels unsteady when it smells blood. It writhes in Zhou Nan's arms, and Zhou Nan keeps stroking it along its fur, keeping as far away from the bowl of blood as possible.

Cassia? Dip a drop with your finger, smell it closely, and taste it on the tip of your tongue. Shaking your head in disappointment,

"Just ordinary? Wolf blood, not Changhong."

"how can that be?"

Mingyue didn't believe it at first. Then the wolf's pupils were obviously colorful. If it wasn't Changhong, how could there be animals' eyes like that?

"Maybe it was stimulated by something",

Cassia said with certainty that she could tell that this wolf blood was no different from ordinary blood, and Changhong's blood could not be like this.

"Nan Nan!"

Cassia grabbed the pale Zhou Nan who stepped back a few steps, this blow was too big for her, months of hard work was in vain, she still couldn't escape death, but she ...

There is still a big revenge.

"Master won't let you? Something's wrong?!"

"Master..."

"It's going to be okay?",

Cassia? It hurts to hold her.

"Master found some plants in the Western Regions that are compatible with Bing Po, and soon... soon you can be cured?".

Zhou Nan shook her head stubbornly. Cassia spent half her life developing the antidote, and it wouldn't be so easy. She knew it, and Wei Jun's skeleton was there. Tell her, her body It is changing to that appearance.

Ming Yue sat on the side and began to cry, God is so hateful, it gave people hope, and then ruthlessly crushed it. Instead of doing this, it would be better not to go south in the first place, and the princess would not be so sad.

"Master, how long do I have?"

The sad atmosphere was first broken by Zhou Nan. Mingyue cried until her eyes were blurred with tears, and Caesar kept sighing, but her eye circles were not even red.

Are you going to cry? She already cried when Situ Che left. Probably because she had nothing to do with her. It’s good to leave, so I don’t have to watch her die. Fortunately, I met her once before I died. , this wish has come true.

Only revenge is left, and she wants revenge!

If there is not enough time, she will drag Concubine Hua to die together, no matter what method is used.

"Nannan, are you? Talking nonsense? What?"

Cassia doesn't allow her to think wildly, she is still so young, and she is blessed with a big life to enjoy, so she can't be so pessimistic.

"Master",

Zhou Nan lowered her head and looked blankly at Zhan Hong who was still begging her for comfort.

"Mother? Was she murdered?".

"what!"

Cassia froze in place, unable to realize what she was saying for a few seconds.

Zhou Nan didn't mention this matter in the letter, it's not safe.He didn't tell her about the dangers he encountered, for fear that she would worry.

Zhou Nan didn't explain much, and led her into the bedroom directly, and opened the layers of gauze curtains in a corner, and a warm and green jade coffin lay quietly there. Come here, the princess's mansion is full of people, she can't sneak in a coffin,

"The bones of the queen mother are inside, master please."

Cassia stretched out her hand to cover the coffin lid in disbelief,

"Is this really... the queen?"

Zhou Nan nodded,

"Tu'er went to the queen himself? Did the mausoleum bring her back?".

Cassia knelt down on the ground. From the moment she learned of the queen's death, she had been regretting it all the time. Why did she leave her side?

The woman who would comfort her softly, guide her patiently, and finally let her go from the cage was lying in front of her now.

She felt guilty, thinking that treating Zhou Nan wholeheartedly would make up part of it, but today her "precious apprentice" told her that her mother and queen were murdered. How can she find peace?

The coffin was opened, and as a medical saint, she knew what was going on just by looking at it.

"Why did you have a stroke? Why..."

A woman's "crying" sounded intermittently in the room. Zhou Nan's eyes were sad, but she stopped crying. She had already accepted this fact, just like accepting that the "person" had "gone". She was so sad that she didn't want to cry anymore. .

Cassia couldn't understand how someone could be so vicious and want to kill such a kind person.

With her eyes closed, she recalled the scene when she entered the palace for the first time. At that time, she was only fifteen or sixteen years old. She was originally studying the intractable diseases left by her master with her fellow brothers and sisters in the mountains, but she was caught. The snobbish father forcibly sent her into the palace. She was very lucky. She was assigned to serve in the queen's bedroom. She was terrified at that time. She didn't dare to resist, and always thought that if she entered the palace, she would be forcibly occupied by the emperor, and she was in constant fear.

Until I saw the gentle and watery Wei Jun, she was so high, so high, so admired by thousands of people, but she walked down from the altar and knelt down to comfort a panicked, humble maid. .

"Little girl, what's your name?"

"My...servant's name is Fang...Fang Huai".

"Then? I will call you Ah Huai. I heard that you are interested in medical skills. Tomorrow, the Japanese Palace will ask Imperial Physician Du to take you to the Imperial Hospital. You? Stop crying, okay?"

She wiped away the tears of the little maid with a handkerchief embroidered with plum blossoms, and talked to her for a long time until she got used to the life in the palace.

"Ah Huai, did you adjust it? Incense is very useful, I slept soundly last night."

"Ahuai, the medicinal materials you want have been delivered, go to the kitchen to get them by yourself."

"Ahuai, you don't like the imperial palace, and neither do I, but...you? Don't worry, I will find a way to send you out?".

"Ah Huai, let's go, don't look back, do what you want to do, don't worry about me."

……

She helped her escape from the palace. Since then, the world has lost a court lady named Fang Huai, but has gained a master Jussin with excellent medical skills.

When Zhou Sheng invited her into the palace, he didn't even recognize her as the palace maid who accompanied the queen back then.After leaving the palace, her whereabouts were uncertain, and no one could find her. If she hadn't heard that the queen had passed away, she wouldn't have let the people in the palace find her.

If she hadn't left Wei Jun's side back then, would things have turned out differently?With her here, how can anyone poison the queen?She will never allow it!

But now, it's too late.

"Who? Who killed her?"

"Concubine Hua".

"Where did she come from? Poison?"

"I don't know?"

Cassia clenched her fists, Fengzhu and Bingpo were not ordinary poisons, they were similar to the intractable diseases left by her master, she suspected that the poison king had stolen the master's secret book.

After escaping from the palace, the first thing she thought of was to go back to her teacher's school, but at that time, she didn't know what happened, there was only a wilderness left, and all the teachers and disciples died.

"Nannan, what are you going to do?"

Cassia closed the lid of the coffin, and kept stroking the coffin wall with his palms, hoping to let the bones inside rest in peace in this way.

"Master, how long do I have?"

She asked this question again, Cassia was heartbroken, but she had to answer truthfully,

"One year, Nan Nan, another year... If the teacher hasn't developed an antidote, you? Maybe... maybe you won't be able to hold on anymore."

This is her fate, Zhou Nan closed her eyes.
