Chapter 372 Kill in the City 2
"What's going on with the A family?" In the bedroom, Yuanxiu's favorite Ruilin fragrance was ordered. The fragrance is soft and fragrant. Even if it burns more, it doesn't feel strong, but it is more and more mellow.
On the incense burner with the golden crane, a wisp of green smoke slowly emitted from the ganoderma lucidum held by the mouth of the crane, and unconsciously filled the bedroom. Mrs. Xue's temples were slightly fluffy, wearing a half-old summer shirt, sitting outside the tent with a handkerchief and slowly wiping the corners of her eyes, carefully restraining her sobs from disturbing Yuanxiu in the tent, but in fact, Yuanxiu was not awake at this moment. She fell asleep drowsy and did not respond to anyone's call, if not breathe. The face is still stable and ruddy, and Geng Jingzhai's diagnosis and treatment also said that there is no worry about his life. Now picking blue and green will not just stand beside him silently and cry.
It's just that she is so sleepy that she has never been woken before, which is really shocking.
Huo Wei rarely entered the bedroom, and it was difficult to hide his haggard look overnight as if he had aged for more than ten years. After seeing Mrs. Xue's question, no one opened his mouth for a long time. He sighed in his heart and coughed. Fang asked, "Have you seen your family's dinner yesterday?"
"Doctor Geng just came to see the condition of the A family, so I led him to go to the kitchen. Although a lot of yesterday's food has been poured out, the squeam has not yet been transported out. In addition, those have been dealt with by picking oranges by himself, and there is definitely no problem." Cai Lan wiped her eyes and replied that her voice was a little trembling but her mouth was still clear. Although after Yuan Xiu fell ill, the first thing everyone thought of was to eat, but nothing suspicious was found in the small kitchen. Moreover, since the palace has changed, Caicheng always ordered the little maids to use it first in the kitchen and return. For Yuanxiu, there has been no problem in the past few days, and Yuanxiu's illness is really unpredictable.
Huo Wei remained silent, and the maids of honor were all left by the Empress Dowager Wenhua to Princess Yuanxiu. He was the person who was specially sent to take care of the Empress Dowager Wenxiu. Naturally, he was clear about the means of the Empress Dowager Wenhua. Although Qiu Fengxiang is now covering the sky in the palace, Qiu Fengxiang's fortune is still the Empress Dowager Wenhua's death. Before that, after Qu Ping's ambush, the palace attendant was really confused for a period of time to compete for the military power, and the Empress Dowager Wenhua took advantage of the chaos and almost abandoned the internal affairs - the palace people she left by her only children dared not say that they would still be loyal more than ten years after her death, but these people could be There are reasons why Empress Dowager Hua like it. What's more, the royal family is declining, and it is not appropriate to speculate about each other. In this way, it is easy to quarrel.
"There is no problem with picking oranges in person, so did any outsiders go to it yesterday?" Huo Wei can only ask this. There are four great maids of honor in the Pearl Mirror Hall, all of which are left by the Empress Dowager Wenhua. Originally, in addition to the youngest green picking, the other three will be released from the palace two years later. Therefore, the successor has been picked up and taught since the year before last, which is a group of people of Jin. , led by Jinfang, and Jinmu, Jinshui and Jinxiu. These four people were picked out by Empress Dowager Zhaoxian. Mrs. Xue and Huo Wei have both seen it, and their background has also been investigated. In addition, there are also some rough palace people... If there is no Qiu Fengxiang, no one will believe it.
Cai Lan was thoughtful. Hearing his question, he knew his intention. He just sighed: "Except Xue Niang went to get medicine for her sister Shuang Niang, there was no one else."
"You just came back yesterday, and the A family fell ill today..." Huo Wei squinted. Originally, Mrs. Xue and Cai Lan came back, Huo Wei was somewhat relieved. Her mind of picking blue is finer than picking green, and her calm personality is also more reliable than picking green. As for Mrs. Xue, she is also familiar with martial arts. With her side with Yuan Xiu, if Du and Qiu are really unfavorable to Yuan Xiu. The ten Xue ladies can't stop many divine forces inside and outside the palace, but they always feel relieved, but they don't expect that Mrs. Xue and others to come back, and Yuanxiu, who worried him, has something to do something again.
Huo Wei instinctively felt that Yuan Xiu was ridiculously ill this time. First of all, Yuan Xiuyuan was not bad, especially after the death of Empress Dowager Zhaoxian, Mrs. Xue asked her to practice riding and shooting, and even her face was much more red. Second, it was not a time to be warm and cold. Why was the good Yuan Xiu sick?
Although Yuanxiu's situation looks very similar to Guo Shuang, Huo Wei doesn't think Yuanxiu is so useless. There are many people who visit Guo Shuang. Yuanxiu belongs to the least one - Guo Shuang's sister Guo Xue and Cai Lv have served unclothed, and they have not seen the two of them sick. How could Yuan Xiu be like this? Weak?
So Yuanxiu suddenly fell ill this time, and it must have been Daoer. However, although the Pearl Mirror Hall is not a copper wall and iron wall, the people close to Yuan Xiu are reliable. Yesterday, before he finally fell ill, he saw only Mrs. Xue...
Huo Wei frowned. If it was the most trustworthy person around Yuanxiu and asked the government and the opposition to come down to choose, the first one would definitely not be him, but Mrs. Xue. Mrs. Xue, who was raised by the Guo family as a direct relative, and the Empress Dowager Wenhua regarded her own sister, who was also treated her very politely when Empress Dowager Zhaoxian and Emperor Xianzong were there.
Moreover, when Mrs. Xue entered the palace, it was when the Guo family was in full swing. Although she did not have a husband and only son, she was not old, and this dynasty was open. With the power of the Guo family and the appearance of Mrs. Xue herself, if she remarried, there were still many young talents competing to marry. However, Mrs. Xue had a very good relationship with her late husband. After this blow, he changed his feelings when he followed the mother of Empress Dowager Wenhua to visit Yuanxiu, and was willing to change from a family girl to a court lady, just to stay with Yuanxiu to take care of him - this is well known by the court.
If Mrs. Xue wants to harm Yuanxiu, I don't know how many opportunities there have over the years... Huo Wei remembered Duke Ji's visit. Is Mrs. Xue deliberately trying to help Yuanxiu push Yuanxiu out of the palace? But although Mrs. Xue was relatively straightforward when she was a girl, after entering the palace, she has been in the palace for at least more than ten years, which is not the same as before.
Can't Mrs. Xue see that she took advantage of illness to avoid this trick? Which one in the palace has stayed for a few years is not clear? This is not a smart means. When Zheng Meiren had a misde, the palace went up to Wei Huafei to the new Fangyi. Which one didn't dodged like this? Didn't Fengchun really know at that time? I just don't want to expose it.
But now that Du Qingtang and Qiu Fengxiang have gained momentum, even if Yuan Xiu avoids this time, what about Fengchun, who has been edicted as the emperor? Fengchun's life and death are now in the hands of others - in Huo Wei's view, since the new king is established, Fengchun's life is extremely dangerous. The reason why he can still live at this moment is that the new king's accession ceremony has not been held yet. It is not appropriate to have funeral news before that. In addition, it may also be that Du Qingtang and Qiu Fengxiang have already prepared. What should Princess Yuanxiu do as bait? In order to better control Princess Yuanxiu, she stayed in Fengchun - that day, when Duke Ji said to let Yuanxiu leave the palace, didn't he specifically mention Fengchun?
Mrs. Xue gave up her status as the daughter of the family and stayed in the palace for Princess Yuanxiu, so she escaped the disaster of the later destruction of the Guo family... And because the age gap between Mrs. Xue and Fengchun was not large, in order to avoid suspicion when Yuanxiu was young, Mrs. Xue often deliberately avoided Don't meet Fengchun, so she is also the child of the Empress Dowager Wenhua, and Mrs. Xue must be closer to Yuanxiu.
It's just that this doesn't mean that Mrs. Xue doesn't care about Fengchun... The night before the palace change, Princess Yuanxiu took Mrs. Xue and Cai Lan and others out of the palace to listen to Qiu Sixteen's pipa, but she came back the next day by the Du family. Mrs. Xue and others returned yesterday. Obviously, other things happened in the middle.
The intention of sending Mrs. Xue and others back at this eye bone is self-evident. Anyway, even if many Langjun's martial arts are not her opponents, even if Yuanxiu is pushed out as bait, Du Qingtang and Qiu Fengxiang have returned her to Yuanxiu, how can they make Yuanxiu sick and make Fengchun a target?
Huo Wei thought of this and subconsciously looked at Mrs. Xue, but happened to meet Mrs. Xue's meaningful eyes, which made Huo Wei's heart beat down. She had heard Mrs. Xue stop crying and asked Cai Lan in a hoarse voice, "Is the medicine ready?"
"Zaicheng looked there in person and said that he would send it over once it was ready." Cai Lan Wen replied.
While talking, Jinfang came in outside. Seeing that everyone looked sad, she wanted to withdraw again. When Cai Lan saw it, she stopped her: "What's the matter?"
"The Twelve Lang of the Du Family is here." Jinfang had to stand still and said, "He said he would come to visit A's family. It's okay if it's inconvenient." Du Furi is magnificent and modest. Although he knows that he is Du Qingtang's nephew, Jinfang is still fearless of him. In addition, Yuan Xiu is suddenly ill and it is really difficult to be in awe of him. Therefore, he intends to go back and be perfunctory when he sees that everyone has no idea.
Cai Lan was nodding her head, but Mrs. Xue suddenly stopped her: "Wait!"
Cai Lan, who was confused on the opposite side, explained to Huo Wei: "Now you also know the situation in Chang'an. Earlier, you heard that Shuang Niang was ill and couldn't even hire a doctor. Finally, the twelve Lang of the Du family came forward and brought Geng Jingzhai here. I think Jiu Niang is so abruptly ill this time, although Geng Jingzhai has seen it. But look at Jiu Niang's appearance, I'm afraid she will drink medicine for a long time. Although we have prepared a lot in our hall, there is always no place to entrust him. In addition, Du Jia 12 Lang became familiar with Jiu Niang a few days ago. Why don't it be better to let him come in and have a look?
Mrs. Xue has a strong personality. Cai Lan and others have always been well-behaved in front of her. Even Huo Wei can't despise her opinions. After thinking carefully for a moment, Huo Wei frowned and said, "Is it just that he wants to come in to visit the A family? So how many people shall we leave here? You can't let him in alone, can you?
"I'll stay." Mrs. Xue opened her mouth and said that no one could doubt her loyalty to Yuanxiu. Moreover, among the people in the Pearl Mirror Hall, Mrs. Xue is the most capable and can also be regarded as half of Yuan Xiu's elder. Although Huo Wei was doubtful, he was speechless and had to say, "It's so annoying."
