?In a few days, the news of the princess returning to Jiangdong spread in twos and threes. It is not a bad thing to return home to Ning, but the princess was ordered by Sun Quan not to receive condolences from Zhou Mansion.Lingxiu didn't care about this much, and didn't pick any date, and when he went, he just pretended to be a colleague to relax, and he didn't care about anyone's objection, so he pulled her out, and as soon as he got into the carriage, he told the driver to go Zhou Mansion rushed over.

"Princess, that little second sister-in-law of yours doesn't seem to be a good person to be with." Ren Xian was not confused, knowing that she was talking about Mrs. Xu who stopped them just now.A mother is more expensive than a child, she is like a fish in water in the mansion, but there are very few people who really admire her.

"I also heard that she often gossips on my second brother's pillow. Over the years, my second brother has done a lot of stupid things because of her words. It's really unfortunate for the family." There is another sentence that she dare not say, and she can't bear to believe , how could the second brother be so confused, because of a woman's words to decide the life and death of important ministers?She persuaded herself not to think any more, but still couldn't help hesitating.

"Really?" Lingxiu remembered that Ruyue once told her that Zhou Lang's death might have something to do with the inner circle of the Sun family. Her cousin was the most able to read the mind of the prince. Help Junhou hardened his heart.

After getting out of the car, Lingxiu led the princess to the garden of the back house, Ren Xian was surprised,

"Sister Ling, aren't you going to offer incense to Brother Yu's coffin? Why did you bring me here?" She was really puzzled, and even felt that the state of Lingxiu was a little strange. Although there was sadness, it didn't seem to be The pain of a dead husband is completely different from that of my sister-in-law.

Unexpectedly, Lingxiu only said indifferently, "Who said I'm going to take you to burn incense?" The spirit seat is gone, so where do you go to burn incense?She didn't want to say much, she just wanted to arrange everything earlier in the remaining days. "Look, who is that?"

Looking in the direction pointed by Lingxiu, I saw the person playing the zither in the hidden place of Baihua, dressed in white and snowy, but his eyes had lost the look of the past.Ke Renxian would not admit his mistake, this face was exactly the one she had missed since she was a child.

"Brother Yu, he, is he still alive?" The princess was full of surprise, couldn't help but be sad and happy, and only turned her head to ask Lingxiu.

"What do you think?" Seeing is believing, so why ask more questions.

"Sister Ling, what is going on?"

Lingxiu's eyes were calm, and he wanted to tell the truth, but he kept his mouth shut, "This...it's a long story."

Looking at the cause and effect carefully, she still remembered that when she died that day, she was extremely sad, rushed to the military doctor, and drove away all irrelevant people in the camp. trouble.Suddenly seeing someone intruding outside the tent, he only said respectfully,

"Ma'am, there is someone outside the tent asking to see you."

"I don't see you." She didn't even raise her head, even if the world is destroyed, it doesn't matter to her anymore.

"But..." It was indeed difficult to hear, "The man said that he is an old friend of the governor, and he asked to see him on a life-or-death matter. He..."

A matter of life and death?These four words brought back the sliver of rationality left in Lingxiu, "Let him in."

"Yes." The soldiers retreated, and the visitors slowly entered the camp. Lingxiu raised his head and wondered,

"It's you?"

The visitor bowed his head and saluted, and said softly, "Madam, Zhongqing has something important to do, and needs to see Dudu Zhou face to face."

"Zhou Dudu?" Now that Lingxiu hears the word "Zhou Dudu", all thoughts are lost, and he can't help but feel heartache for a moment, and he has already forgotten how to breathe. After a long while, he closed his eyes tightly, shed tears again, and said in a calm voice, "Jiao Shaoli, didn't you know when you entered the camp? You are late, Zhou Lang is here, he... he has... already..."

"Already?" Hearing these half-broken words, Jiao Zhongqing knew what had happened, and couldn't help being startled. She didn't want to travel day and night, but she was still a step too late. She was in grief for a while, and after she shed tears, the old feelings suddenly surfaced in her heart , Slightly less sad, hanging his sleeves to wipe away tears, "Madam, don't be sad for now, maybe... let Zhongqing try again?"

Lingxiu was amazed that Zhou Lang had lost his breath, so how could he have the ability to return to heaven based on his experiments? "Jiao Shaoli, do you still know the art of Qihuang?"

"It's...a little understanding."

"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Jiao Shaoli's hard work. The military doctor checked his pulse and said that he is... hopeless." When he said the last four words, Lingxiu's heart was trembling, even bleeding, The 12 years of companionship has finally come to an end. She once said that she should take it lightly, but when things come to an end, how can she bear the sadness?

"Madam, can you let Zhongqing try it first, and then tell him what to say."

Seeing his insistence in every possible way, Lingxiu couldn't understand his meaning, but he didn't have any thoughts in his heart, so he said lightly, "You try it."

Coincidentally, next to the case was the medical box that Lingxiu hadn't taken away when he left the military doctor in grief and anger. There were all medical tools in it. Jiao Zhongqing picked up the needle bag and slowly rolled it up. Seeing that his ten fingers trembled slightly, and after a few more stitches, he even coughed slightly, Lingxiu was very excited, and hurriedly flew to the bed, but saw that he was still breathless, and his heart that had been warm just now was unavoidably cooled by more than half .

"Jiao Shaoli, this is...Zhou Lang..." Lingxiu didn't know what to say, he couldn't even explain what he wanted to say, and he couldn't understand what he asked.

"Ma'am, there are hibiscus flowers in the arrows shot by Zhou Dudu. I am afraid that there are 'severe illnesses' in the decoction taken."

"Hibiscus flower? 'Sick disease'? What's the matter with these?"

"Ma'am, I don't know that this hibiscus flower is also known as Heartbroken Grass. It is a heart-breaking and lung-inducing poison, but it coincidentally counteracts the two poisons of 'sickness and ailment'. Therefore, using poison to fight poison has become a dose of fake death medicine. Lanzhi and I faked our deaths that day. , even if we use these two things to deceive the sky and cross the sea, I think the life of the governor today can be saved."

"Is this really true?" With just one sentence "life is safe", Lingxiu couldn't help being overjoyed. He just wanted to confirm repeatedly that nothing would be lost. It's hard to survive.

"only……"

Unexpectedly, when Jiao Zhongqing changed the subject, a heart almost jumped out of his throat, "Just what?"

"It's just that Zhongqing used poison back then, and he was fighting with his life. He was trying to save himself from a desperate situation. What's more, he did it deliberately, and the dosage of the medicine was carefully considered, so there was no loss or loss. Now the governor is being murdered by accidents. , the dose is wrong, and there is still toxicity left, depending on the properties of the two medicines, the internal organs are almost guaranteed, and the eyes may be injured."

"Injury to both eyes? You mean...Zhou Lang...will lose his sight?" It was Zhou Lang's fate to ride the battlefield for half a lifetime. If he wakes up, he loses his light. If you are rich, you can only hear it with your ears, not see it with your eyes, let alone raise your sword and draw a bow, talk and laugh at the mast and scull, I am afraid you will only find it again in your dreams, he...could bear it?

"Ma'am, don't worry, just wait for Zhongqing to prescribe the medicine. It may take a few months at the earliest, or a year at the slowest. The governor will definitely recover."

Hearing his words, hope was ignited in Lingxiu's heart again. For a moment, there were ups and downs. It was really hard to express the state of mind at this moment. He just bowed his head and bowed his knees to thank him, "Jiao Shaoli, great kindness and great virtue, spirit Thank you so much!"

Seeing that she was about to kneel down, Jiao Zhongqing couldn't help but panic. In a hurry, she ignored the etiquette of respect and inferiority, and hurriedly supported her with her hands, and said, "Ma'am... Ma'am, please get up quickly, the governor treats Zhongqing with great kindness, this move It's just a matter of raising one's hand, Zhongqing really can't bear such a big gift from Madam."

Lingxiu got up, staring at the restless sleeping face on the couch, if he hadn't coughed a few times during the acupuncture just now, how could she have believed that he was still alive, and was so truly by her side.In the record of being favored by others for thousands of generations, if Jiao Shaoli hadn't come here today, how could there be such a turning point.Eh?He is far away in Jianye, so why did he come here from a thousand miles away this time, and even asked to see Zhou Dudu by name.

"Jiao Shaoli, did the lord order you to come here to announce the military orders?"

The word "Junhou" came into my ears, Jiao Zhongqing pondered for a long time, then faltered and said, "No, it's...it's Madam Xie, I ordered Zhongqing to come...come and tell Governor Zhou, be careful...be careful..."

"Be careful of what?" Lingxiu was in a hurry, but it was the most important words that he couldn't hear for a long time.

"Be careful... be careful of the princes sending people to harm you." Zhong Qing forced her to turn around, feeling heartbroken.The king hurts the trustworthy ministers, if Mrs. Xie hadn't said it herself, how could he believe it, the lord is so cold-hearted.

Lingxiu opened his eyes wide, his face full of astonishment, and murmured, "Junhou? Junhou..." He kept saying that he treated Zhou Lang like a brother, and watched him risk his life to take down half of Soochow, but now... he sent someone to assassinate him. Yu Gongchen, is this still the Sun Zhongmou she knew well in the past?This is clearly the violent and cold-faced emperor, and he wants to kill them all, even if he doesn't talk about the half-hearted friendship of the past.

"Your Majesty...why did he want to kill Zhou Lang?"

"Zhongqing... I don't know."

"Yes, how do you know." Since Sister Ruyue sent him here, then Sister Ruyue should know the cause and effect of it.

Lingxiu sighed softly, and then asked again, "By the way, Jiao Shaoli, you have never tested poisoned arrows, let alone inspected decoctions, so...how did you know about hibiscus flowers and "severe illness"? "

I saw Jiao Zhongqing bowing his head and bowing his head respectfully, saying, "Madam and the governor treat Zhongqing and his wife with the grace of rebuilding. I don't hide this from Madam. When Zhongqing was young, his father was in the court and was assassinated by this. Later Although I was lucky enough to survive, but I couldn't help being angry at the villain's bad deeds, and died of worry."

Lingxiu was very surprised, he didn't want to have such a plot to murder him, and he didn't want Jiao Shaoli's father to have such deep hatred, "But I don't know... who is your father?" Blunted the question, unexpectedly Jiao Zhongqing only replied,

"Everything in the past will end up as dust. Why should Madam bother to delve into it? It's a pity that my father asked me not to get involved in the officialdom when he was dying. Zhongqing wanted to be a small official of the Lujiang Mansion in this life, but he was still involved in it." In court."

Hearing his words, Lingxiu just remembered that this trip is extremely dangerous, "Yes, Jiao Shaoli, you know the intention of the prince, and I came here to tell Zhou Lang again on this trip, and the wife of the prince must have told you , Jianye, you can't go back, otherwise, with the personality of a gentleman, I'm afraid you won't be able to save your life."

"Ma'am, Zhongqing is only afraid that Lujiang will not tolerate me and Lanzhi."
