imprinted you in my heart

As soon as Lu Jianyi and the others left, only Bu Qianxue and Shi Min, who was lying unconscious on the bed, were left in the entire dormitory. The dormitory that made her feel very warm was terribly silent at the moment. On the slate, but on her heart, it was painful and numb.

At this moment, she didn't have to be patient anymore, and she didn't have to be brave anymore, and she didn't have to pretend that I was okay. She staggered to the bedside, and each step weighed a thousand catties. A good wound is red and dazzling.

The thin quilt was covered under the wound, and two quilts were placed under it, and the pillows were the softest and round ones. It could be seen that Lu Jianyi and the servants were very careful. Shi Yan should be comfortable lying on his stomach like this, but she saw It is very uncomfortable to lie on the stomach like this, no matter how soft the bed is, it will be uncomfortable for people who are used to sleeping on their backs.

The hand stretched out tremblingly, stopped in the air, hesitated for a while, and finally retreated, and the whole person lay on the side of the bed and wept softly.

Bu Qianxue is not a person who loves to cry. After she became sensible, no matter when she was mischievously beaten when she was a child or later ran away from home, no matter how difficult she was, she never really cried, because she knew that her mother was going to beat her. She remembers the lesson, never makes mistakes again, and will not soften her heart and reduce her punishment just because she cries.

As for her mother, she has the heart to persuade her, but unfortunately the effect is not ideal, not to mention, I am still busy with socializing, and most of the time I am not at home. The words of the two grandmothers are effective, but unfortunately they are too far away, and crying alone can't attract them. , so the difference between crying and not crying is not big, she doesn't want to obey her mother's wishes, so she gritted her teeth and endured no matter how painful it was, and never cried.

Even when the house was ransacked, the whole family lived on the street, and her mother was still very unreliable, she didn't cry, but calmly began to think of a solution, and tried her best to solve it, to think of a solution, and took the initiative to be the backbone of the family , appease the elders, and stabilize the servants, so that the family did not fall.

No matter how flustered she was, she had to pretend to be confident on the surface. In fact, she was also afraid of difficulties and would be at a loss. But after calming down and overcoming the difficulties, she not only did not feel tired and bitter, but also learned what she had learned. Keep it in mind and accumulate for better solutions to difficult problems next time.

She didn't know what it's like to like someone until she met Shi Min. She couldn't help thinking and caring, and couldn't help wanting to know everything about the other person, and sometimes even dreamed that it was all about the other person.

Her liking also changed from looking forward to joy at the beginning to disappointment after a long wait, and then she finally saw the other party again, but her liking became very humble, so humble that she only dared to let herself have no regrets, When she decided to participate in the selection of the queen, she was already mentally prepared to give up completely.

She even thought that after she failed, she would live her whole life according to her mother's arrangement and words, go on a blind date with someone she had never met before, and then get married. After marriage, it would be plain, respect and love each other, have one or two children, and spend the rest of her life in peace. , no longer think about the impossible.

But she didn't expect that it would turn around later, and she didn't know whether it was God who heard her deepest prayer, or Shi Min was too good at pretending, Shi Min had her in his heart, and she really didn't like to drink when she fell ill. At first, she just wanted to fake crying to avoid taking the medicine, but she didn't expect to cry for real in the end, because she was greedy for the gentle and anxious appearance of the other party.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that since she met Shi Min, she has cried more times than before, especially today, after she decided to stay, she didn't think she would cry, because she felt hurt from what she saw. It wasn't serious, but after seeing Shi Min's pain and struggle, she cried.

When she later found out that the injury was much more serious than she thought, she panicked, as if all the strength in her body was taken away in an instant.

Now lying on the bed and crying, what she cries is more pain, guilt and self-blame. If she hadn't escaped, Shi Min wouldn't have left the palace, and if she didn't leave the palace, she wouldn't be in danger of her life. It's her fault. , and it is even more unfavorable for the guards in Bufu.

When she thought of this, she wanted to cry, and she was flustered. It was not until a thunderbolt woke her up that she didn't let her get into the corner.

She stopped crying, and resolutely wiped away her tears with a handkerchief. She didn't care about whether the makeup was beautiful or not, because she suddenly thought that she was at fault, but the murderer who directly caused all this deserved death , instead of crying in self-pity here, it is better to arrest the murderer as soon as possible, no matter who is behind the murderer, she will not let anyone go!

If Shi Min really has a chance, then these people will be buried with her. She doesn't mind using the abolished capital punishment for these people. After she handles the follow-up matters, the court is completely stabilized, and the family is also arranged, she will go The cemetery is with her.

After simply tidying herself up, she finally stretched out her hand steadily, stroked Shi Min's unruly temple hair, and slowly helped her turn her head to her side. Lu Jianyi said that because Shi Min was lying on his stomach, I am not conscious, so I have to change direction every once in a while to ensure the smooth flow of Qi and blood.

When their foreheads were pressed against each other, she felt Shi Min's low body temperature and weak breathing, like a flame that would be extinguished at any time, making people have to be careful.

Bu Qianxue closed her eyes, she wanted to remember this moment forever, she wanted those people to experience it again, life would be worse than death!

Opening her eyes again, there was only determination and sternness in her reddish eyes and face. Reluctantly, she glanced at the familiar face again, and finally got up and left neatly with all her strength.

She suddenly understood and understood the emotion contained in Shi Min's eyes when she woke up in the thatched cottage.

You protect me every time, so let me protect you this time. Whatever you care about is what I want to protect.

Fandu has been completely plunged into darkness, but the torrential rain has no tendency to abate at all. The lightning and thunder make the timid tremble. In the Buhou Mansion, except for the north room where the two elders live, the rest of the place is completely dark. Being taken over by the Internal Forbidden Army with full power, especially Nanfang is the top priority.

The outer perimeter of the Marquis Mansion is tightly guarded by the Imperial Guards and guards. Barricades have been set up at both ends of the street in front of the gate. Without the permission of the guards, no carriages or people can enter, let alone approach the wall of Buhou Mansion.

The newly opened inn on the opposite side is under strict surveillance for those who have not been caught, and the nearby gate has also been guarded by guards, and they are not allowed to enter or leave for the time being.

The entire Buhou Mansion has been protected layer upon layer from inside to outside, and no one can enter without Bu Qianxue's consent.

As soon as Bu Qianxue came out of the dormitory, she ordered the internal guards guarding the door to strictly guard it, and no one was allowed to enter without her permission. She called Yang Banyue and Lu Jianyi over and asked them to go in and take care of Shi Min.

As soon as Lu Jian received his order, he handed Yang Banyue the clean face towel prepared by others. After wearing it himself, he took the medicine powder and smeared it on his hands and clothes. Have some doubts.

Before Bu Qianxue could ask, Lu Jianyi first explained that it was proposed by a famous contemporary doctor who participated in the compilation of medical books, and the medicine powder was also invented by this person, whether it was when the visiting person wore a face towel and applied the medicine powder, or it was in the room before. Sprinkling the powder inside is actually to protect the patient and reduce the chance of the patient getting tetanus, and it has been verified by cases and has a certain effect.

That's why she kept this kind of medicine powder in her medicine box. The face towel was rarely used, so she didn't have it ready. Otherwise, she should have worn it after finding that the arrow had been contaminated.

After listening to the explanation, Bu Qianxue understood in seconds, and immediately asked Yang Banyue to do the same. Yang Banyue, who half understood, wanted to think about it for a while.

Bu Qianxue asked about the condition of the medicine again, and she was satisfied when she learned that the medicine had been boiled, and that Doctor Wang was watching in person. After watching the two go in, she lifted her foot and left.

Shi Min once told her that the Imperial Physician Wang sent to her was Xing Boen's mother, a trustworthy person, who used to be an Imperial Physician and was only promoted to Imperial Physician in the past two years. If such a person is not trustworthy, then She really didn't know who to trust.

Afterwards, Bu Qianxue went to the flower hall, and asked to have the housekeeper, the officer in charge of the Imperial Guard, the officer in charge of the Outer Guard, and the head of the guard all be called over.

The housekeeper who was nearby was the first to arrive. Bu Qianxue asked about the situation in the lower mansion, and only then did she know that Bu Lang had brought his men out to hunt him down and never came back. There was nothing unusual about Jiang Li comforting them there, and all the medicinal materials in the mansion were sent to the vacated room next door. The residences of Lu Jianyi and others were also arranged, and two other rooms were arranged for the generals to shelter from the rain. Take a nap or take care of things.

Bu Qianxue nodded after hearing this. The housekeeper in the mansion is a middle-aged fat uncle who was born with a son. After the death of the old housekeeper, she was trained and promoted by her mother. Sometimes she handles these trivial matters more thoughtfully than they think, and gives him After arranging some things, let him go down.

As soon as the butler left, the officer in charge of the Imperial Guard also arrived. He was actually a deputy commander, wearing bright light armor. The armor glowed under the candlelight. Oiled boots, wet footprints, and occasional raindrops from the armor stretched from the door to where it stopped.

Bu Qianxue knew that this was the result of the other party wearing oil coats, otherwise the heavy rain outside would have been soaked through long ago. She just walked from the corridor and saw that everyone in the guards on duty was wearing clothes woven by the Ministry of Industry. Si Tong made a dark blue oil coat and wore an oil cap. Presumably, the other party came in after taking off the oil coat and unloading the weapon outside the door.

After the deputy commander stopped, he gave a military salute to Bu Qianxue, but he became suspicious in his heart, thinking: Didn't it mean that Zhonggong was assassinated?Why doesn't Nakamiya seem to have any discomfort?

Bu Qianxue started to ask questions without paying the ceremony. Through the deputy commander's answer, she knew what she wanted to know. After telling the other party to protect the south room and its surroundings, she said some words of encouragement and a long way to go, and then let the other party back down .

This is what she learned from Shi Min's side. To be superior, you should give both kindness and power, not just punish or reward blindly, and don't be reluctant to say good things when you should say good things. Sometimes the effect of a good word is unexpected.

The vice-commander brought two hundred prestige guards, which had already sealed the Bufu, while Zuo Xuan personally took some of the confidential guards and Changping guards to arrest the murderer. The defense of the palace is more important, especially the Queen Mother, His Majesty and honorable officials are all in the palace tonight.

As usual, Bu Qianxue can't move the imperial army, and the generals won't listen to her at all, but Shi Min's last words are tantamount to handing over power to her, and Zuo Xuan is a loyal and patriotic general, so what Shi Min would say She did whatever she wanted, so before calling these people over, she deliberately ordered that everything follow the arrangements of the Central Palace after arriving at Buhou's Mansion.

Since the addition of the post of provost in the army, apart from daily training, the army has added an additional activity—study, and every time you study, you must shout slogans, one of which is——The bounden duty of a soldier is to be loyal to His Majesty and Absolutely obey.

The boss gave orders, so they naturally obeyed absolutely, not to mention that Zhonggong is extremely noble, so if you listen to her, as long as you don't rebel, you are also loyal to His Majesty.

After a while, the officer in charge of the Imperial Guard also came. It was a team temporarily led by a chief of staff. Because both the commander and deputy commander had gone to the palace for a banquet, the highest general on duty today was the chief of staff. After hearing the news, he immediately brought a team of troops from the Modao camp over, and had already protected the outside of the mansion layer by layer.

Their Imperial Guards already have the responsibility of maintaining law and order in the city and guarding the city gates, so although there is no order or order from His Majesty, it is also in line with the regulations to bring a team of people to visit or rush to help. After all, this is the highest general on duty. Mobilize the most troops.

Originally, the Chief of Staff of the Foreign Imperial Army wanted to send a deputy general to lead the team, but later learned that Commander Zuo not only led people to arrest himself, but also sent a deputy commander to lead the team, all of whom were first-class guards Wei Yiwei. Only then did he change his mind, and he actually assigned a lieutenant on duty—Xing Boen—to coordinate the arrest.

After Xing Boen was promoted to lieutenant general, he no longer needed to personally lead troops for training, because each battalion had a general directly under his control, and the duty of the lieutenant general was to assist the high-ranking generals, take appropriate charge of some military affairs, and work in the Forbidden Army Division and barracks according to the rotation system. I was on duty in the middle reincarnation, and I happened to be on duty at the Outer Imperial Army Division today.

When he heard that Zhonggong was assassinated, Xing Boen was both shocked and worried. He really wanted to go to the Buhou Mansion with the chief of staff to find out the details, so he took the initiative to invite Ying. When his wish was about to come true, he did not expect the news reported by the people below Let the chief of staff temporarily change his mind and send her to assist in the arrest.

Although he was a little anxious and somewhat disappointed, Xing Boen took people to assist in the arrest as soon as possible, because only by catching the murderer can he give His Majesty an explanation.

When Bu Qianxue learned that Xing Boen was leading the arrest team of the Foreign Imperial Army, she instantly felt that the chances of catching the murderer were higher, so she immediately asked the chief of staff to lead people to guard the gate and the perimeter, and arrest any suspicious people around. Without her permission, no one is allowed in except the Queen Mother.

The chief of staff, who had the same doubts as the deputy commander, wanted to ask a lot of questions, but Nakamiya's complexion didn't look good, and his aura was stronger than usual. In the end, he didn't ask any questions and took his orders.

In fact, both the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard and the chief of staff of the Imperial Guard have sent people to inquire. After all, they really want to know what happened, but the people in the Buhou Mansion either don’t know anything about it, or keep their mouths shut. However, some gossip came from the people who went out to arrest him, saying that the person who was stabbed was His Majesty, which is simply absurd!

His Majesty has been sleepless since he ascended the throne, working hard for state affairs every day, not only vigorously eradicating corruption, but also downgrading talents, and also improving the status of their generals, especially after the implementation of the New Deal, the people of the world have benefited a lot, The common people look forward to His Majesty's long life.

Even these generals, they all thought so. Before His Majesty ascended the throne, these generals had a low status, and military expenses were embezzled in various ways by those civil servants. If half of them were paid, it would be considered good.

Those who guard the emperor's door, after all, are in front of the emperor, and civil servants are not easy to hold back too much, so life is barely passable, but the local area is miserable. The military equipment is poor, and the food is not even a little meat. It is good to have a little oil and water up.

After His Majesty rectified the army, he not only added some new official positions, such as staff and teaching affairs that he had never heard of before, but also adjusted the types of troops. Those that were more symbolic than actual combat were abolished. They also invented the red cannon and the tiger crouching cannon, which are frightening to watch, but no one will be afraid when they really fight.

Not only the status of their generals has been improved, but also the treatment of their generals has been improved. Even small soldiers can get some money, let alone generals like them, and they no longer need to prepare armor, clothes, weapons and horses by themselves. The armor allocated by the Ministry of War is not only of excellent quality, The style is also uniform and good-looking, coupled with the good-looking armor, there are as many people as there are recruited by the conscription office every year.

Except for those honored nobles who eat at the corpse's place and benefit themselves at the expense of the public, no one speaks well of His Majesty. If anyone dares to assassinate His Majesty, they will be the first to rush forward and fight with each other.

Having said that, let’s not say that according to the custom, His Majesty and the Central Palace cannot meet at present. It is the dinner where honorable and high-ranking officials gathered together. I heard that Mr. Qian brought a lot of good things back. For government affairs, you will definitely host a banquet in the palace, why did you come to Buhou's mansion quietly?

It's ridiculous, anyway, they won't believe it, the assassin must have failed, and he wanted to attack Zhonggong again, that's why His Majesty sent people from Weiyiwei over, the more the Chief of Staff thought about it, the more he felt this way, and he secretly made up his mind We must protect the middle palace and share the worries for His Majesty.

The guards, which were originally the backbone of the Buhou Mansion's protection, became the outermost shield instead. The chief guard who did not lead anyone to arrest was guarding the outermost perimeter, so he came the last and his clothes were the worst.

If it was in normal times, Bu Qianxue would have asked the chief guard to change clothes first, but don't think about it today, and it's not completely wet yet, everyone in the mansion is equipped with raincoats Yes, the style is similar to the hooded oil coat of the Imperial Guard, but the color is black.

Oil coats, also known as raincoats, were made by several skilled craftsmen from the textile department during Gaozong's period. After Gaozong's experiment, the effect was very good. He not only rewarded them with money, but also rewarded them with official positions. Oil coats were popularized and spread quickly. It was popular in the noble circles of the nobles, and it was also a luxury exclusive to the nobles of the nobles. It was not until the Textile Department made better-looking and cheaper oil coats, and sold the production method to businessmen, that it was popularized throughout the country. Now there are People with money will basically buy a spare.

The oil coat has also changed from the initial monotonous style to the current ones of different colors, with and without hats, and it is clearly distinguished by color.

Purple is the most expensive, exclusive to the royal family, especially the emperor, followed by dark blue, exclusive to honored nobles, including inner officials, and yellow, exclusive to palace servants and inner guards, dark green for outer guards, and black for everyone else .

The chief guard saluted and stood aside, Bu Qianxue immediately asked who were the guards on duty outside the gate of the mansion today?Are there any abnormalities in these people recently?How many of the guards who went out to arrest did not come back?

The chief guard thought for a while, and reported the truth. When His Majesty arrived, there were the deputy chief guard and six guards at the gate. The guards were all on duty at the gate in the past. There is nothing unusual recently. Except for Bu Lang, there are five guards who have not returned. One of them was on duty at the gate today.

Bu Qianxue immediately ordered the chief guard to call Bu Lang and the others back, especially the person who was guarding the gate today. He had to pay more attention, but he couldn't startle the snake. It would be best if he could be brought to her quietly.

She didn't even know about Shi Min's coming to Buhou's Mansion in advance. The murderer couldn't just rely on luck. Either he had a plan in advance, or he had internal support, or both. No matter the situation, she will not let go of any clues.

The chief guard took the order to leave, and when he went out, he took back the oil coat from the servants to put on, and finally took back the knife and strode into the rain to leave. ?
