Chapter 264

Seeing this, Gu Heng hurried forward to get a pulse, but Si Qing happened to wake up, turned around and saw Gu Heng, "Brother?"

Gu Heng responded, Xiao Yi hurried over, Si Qing asked Gu Heng, "Why are you here?" He touched his forehead while saying, "This is... where is this?"

Xiao Yi hurriedly said: "This is Yueshilou, you fainted just now, did you notice it yourself?"

Siqing shook her head, "Since you are in Nannei, why did brother come here?"

"You fainted when you were fine," Xiao Yi said, "you scared me, so you brought Liang Fen here."

Gu Heng let go of his hand to check the pulse, and asked Si Qing, "How long has it been since your last old injury?"

Siqing thought for a while, "More than two months?"

Gu Heng frowned, "This is a bit strange."

Si Qing said: "I wondered before whether the arrowhead that hurt me was poisonous, but Uncle Fu confirmed at the time that it was not, and the other is that even if it was poisonous, it is impossible to relapse after two years, so it should not be poisoning."

Seeing that Siqing also had a new injury on his right hand, Gu Heng asked, "This is it?"

"It was accidentally scratched," Siqing said, "The wound is not deep, so it must not be poisonous."

Gu Heng said: "There are people in the southwestern mountains who are good at using Gu. The Gu will only take effect when the person who casts the Gu gives the order. There is a possibility that the arrowhead that hurts you has poison that is similar to Gu poison but is harder to detect than ordinary Gu poison, because it has never been detected. People trigger it, so you don't have it. Over time, it happens on its own."

Xiao Yi was taken aback, "Can it be solved?"

Siqing smiled, "I don't even know what the poison is, how can I get rid of it? Uncle Fu can't help it. But I don't think I'm poisoned."

Gu Heng said: "There is also a possibility that your wound was too deep and hurt your lungs. It may be that you have been agitated recently, which caused an old injury, and you also suffered from a cold. It is unknown."

The two brothers and sisters said a few more medical principles that Xiao Yi could not understand. Gu Heng was writing a prescription, and a minister with a senior position in the cabinet asked to see him. Si Qing said, "Go and do your work first."

Xiao Yi hurried to the front hall, Gu Heng was still writing the prescription, the surroundings were quiet, only Yun Chu stood by his side.Siqing suddenly asked: "Do you have to move back to Nan Province? Uncle Fu must go, and you must go too."

Gu Heng half-jokingly said: "Do you want to be exposed? Do you want to be pointed at the nose and say that you have something to do with the rebellion of Lord Yasukuni? How many queens of the country died well, why don't you know?"

Siqing snorted, "I knew you couldn't come up with nice words."

Gu Heng was silent, and suddenly asked: "What's the matter with General Cheng?"

In the summer of Xining's 21st year, Jiang Feng disappeared during the Jingwei's siege of Ding Fan's secret sentry. Gu Heng and Cheng Yingzhou once teamed up to destroy Ding Fan's important stronghold that had been hidden in the imperial capital for many years.In the autumn of 22 in Xining, he was coerced by Xu Wenchang to commit suicide in prison, and it was Cheng Yingzhou who saved his life.

At this moment when he mentioned Cheng Yingzhou, Siqing sighed deeply, "I can't figure it out, I don't understand why he insisted on seeking death. He refused to say it himself, and now that he is gone, it is even more impossible to find out."

It was inconvenient for Gu Heng to ask again, so he just said, "How did you get poisoned?"

Siqing said, "How can you be sure I'm poisoned?"

Gu Heng said: "I don't know you yet?"

Siqing didn't speak, Gu Heng said: "Have you lived enough?"

"I just haven't lived enough," Siqing said, "That's why I left a way out."

"Admit it?"

Siqing said softly: "I just wanted to see if this poison could help me pretend to be dead. Something happened. I wanted to get out of the shell. I didn't expect the dose to be calculated properly, and I got a headache after taking it."

Siqing is not good at learning arts, and she wanted to take the medicine of holding her breath and feigning death just in case, but she didn't expect to make herself really sick.

"It's really far away," Gu Heng snorted.

Siqing said: "All of these are true and false, and there must be an end. I don't want to think about the long-term, what's wrong?"

"What did you do wrong?"

"I've done so many bad things, so no one can trust me."

Gu Heng said: "Duke Zhou was afraid of the days of rumors, but Wang Mang was still humble and usurped. Xiangshi was transformed into a dead body in the past, who knows the truth of his life."

Siqing laughed, "Brother, I don't know Duke Zhou, but it's not your turn to be Wang Mang."

Gu Heng smiled, left three prescriptions, and had to leave because it was getting late.Siqing said: "I bought some things for your daughter-in-law here. I originally wanted to ask Sister Xuan Bin to bring them to you. Since you are here, I will just give them to you."

All of a sudden, Yunchu brought things, including gold locks and bracelets for the children, golden clasps and purses for the Chinese New Year, a set of things for children to catch Zhou, as well as ready-made clothes, jewelry, fragrant cakes and bait for Yan Moxuan. .Siqing asked Wu Zhenying and Fu Linchuan if they had any letters, Gu Heng said no, and asked Siqing a few more words before leaving.

Gu Heng walked out of the inner hall, saw Xiao Yi coming back in a hurry, and quickly stretched out his sleeves to salute.Xiao Yi supported him, and the two looked at each other briefly, Xiao Yi couldn't see any expression, he just said: "Liang Fen, let's talk."

The two walked to a secluded place by the Taiye Pond, and they couldn't see each other's expressions clearly in the darkness.There are many unspeakable secrets between them, about the life experience of Yan Mowei, the princess of Shangyang, about Gu Heng's father Xie Zixian, about Fu Linchuan or Lu Yuan, and about Siqing.But in the final analysis, everything stems from Lord Yasukuni, Yu Yun and Yi Prison back then.

Gu Heng felt that he understood something, but couldn't figure it out, and didn't want to know more.He and Yan Mowei have worked so hard to get to this day, and the only thing they can hope for is to live a good life in front of them.

Xiao Yi was silent for a moment and asked: "Sixth sister...do you have to live in the south?"

After Gu Heng left Xiyuan, Yunchu re-boiled the medicine and gave it to Siqing, but Siqing didn't want to drink it, so Xiao Yi came into the inner room and said with a smile: "You are so big, you are still afraid of suffering."

Siqing said, "I'm sick here, and you still laugh at me."

Xiao Yi said: "Okay, okay, it's all my fault. But you have to take medicine when you are sick, this is the truth that children understand."

Siqing said: "My stomach is empty, and my stomach hurts after taking the medicine."

After hearing this, Yunchu asked Yuchu to bring the pigeon porridge, and Siqing drank half a bowl before taking the medicine.

Xiao Yi asked: "Do you really think it's not poisoning?"

"I'm not that precious," Siqing handed the empty medicine bowl to Yunchu, "Even if it was poison, I bled so much from the wound at that time, and most of the poison was taken out. Now even if there is some leftover poison, slowly clean it up , it's okay."

Yunchu handed the honey fruit, Siqing smiled and said: "You still care about me, Xiaying has gone and there is a letter, like your sister Lingzhen, who went to Xijing for the New Year and ignored me, and the letter said it was rain What happened at the beginning. You told Yuchu that she wanted to go out of the palace, how could I stop her?"

Yun Chu agreed to go out, and Si Qing said again: "I thought Ling Zhen got married and would come back to Beijing this year for Chinese New Year, but she didn't."

Xiao Yi said: "Didn't she send someone back to Ye's house? Besides, she just went there, and she must be very busy in the first year to live in the house."

Siqing sighed, and Xiao Yi said, "You never thought that you would really agree with her marrying Ye Lancheng."

Siqing said: "I can control people, but I can't control my heart. I have to push the boat along the way. If you ask me what I think, we Lingzhen are very talented, but I still don't want to see her marrying Ye Lancheng."

Xiao Yi smiled, "You just don't like the Ye family, and you can't get over the test in your own heart. Lan Cheng just treats her well."

Siqing shook her head, "If you marry him, you will have to be tossed about by the members of the Ye family. Not to mention this, I heard that there seems to be news about the eldest princess of Xianju."

Xiao Yi said: "Yeah, it's been so many years, it's not easy for the fourth child."

Siqing said: "My little lady has been thinking about it all the time. If I can really find the eldest princess of Xianju, I will forget about my little lady's worries."

Xiao Yi said: "A lot of people were sent to look for it, let's wait and see."

Siqing said: "I want to retreat and meditate, go to the island, or go to Qiongyu."

Xiao Yi persuaded: "It's windy by the lake, let's go back to Ninghua Hall."

"What do you call retreat and meditation when you go back to Ninghua Palace?" Siqing said, "I don't go out, and the earth dragon is warm and tight, so I'm not afraid of the wind. I'll retreat for a while, if there is any residual poison, it can be detoxified. If it is not poisoning , I should take it easy."

Since returning to the Imperial Capital this time, she has always felt tired and weak for no reason. Sometimes in the middle of the night, she was sore all over, and then woke up with a start, making it difficult to fall asleep.It's time to find a place for yourself to be quiet and quiet.

The next day, Siqing began to retreat in Xiyuan Qiongyu, and did not attend the palace banquet after the seventh day of the lunar new year.After the tenth day of the lunar new year, Xiao Yi went to Qiongyu to look for her, and Siqing said, "Destroy my cultivation."

Xiao Yi smiled and said, "What cultivation level do you have?" After speaking, he opened the crock pot, and the aroma of chicken soup overflowed, "This time it must be cooked, try it."

Siqing smiled, "So you still remember?"

Xiao Yi proudly said: "See if my cooking skill has improved."

After returning from Weiyang, Siqing found that Xiao Yi was afraid of getting dirty to an indescribable level.Xiao Yi, who loves clean so much, is willing to make the soup she wants for her, even if it's just for show, and she feels infinite guilt in her heart.

Fifteen years ago, both Shen and Gu went to the martial residence in the south of the city to deliver things to Uncle Lu. When Shen Jiangdong and his wife asked about Siqing's illness, Gu Heng was quite sure that Siqing was fine, so Jiang Feng felt relieved.

Fifteen years later, Li Yuanzhen recovered from illness and returned to the Imperial Capital. After seeing Jiang Feng for being falsely accused of killing Mrs. Li, he came to Jiaguo's mansion to sue Shen Jiangdong and his wife. Because of Mrs. Li's death, Shen Jiangdong and his wife said that this was a trick of King Xiaojing. It has nothing to do with the Li family.After Li Yuanzhen returned to Beijing, Shen Jiangdong didn't have to perform his duties for him anymore, so he had a lot of leisure.On the second day of the second lunar month, firecrackers were set off in Hecheng, the bean casket was scattered, and Mrs. Taiping's youngest daughter got married. Shen Jiangdong accompanied Jiang Feng to Uncle Taiping for a few days.

After Mrs. Uncle Taiping married her daughter, Siqing went out of customs and recovered from her illness.A few days later, Siqing moved back to Wanyue Pavilion from Qiongyu. Jiang Feng hadn't come to see her for a long time. The two sat in the warm pavilion of Wanyue Pavilion and talked.Jiang Feng was wearing a full set of formal attire, but when he came to play in Yuege, he changed Siqing into a cinnamon collar and slanted blouse.A row of tassels fell from the bottom of the shirt, and when Siqing's civet cat jumped up to play with it, Jiang Feng reached out and hugged the civet cat in his arms.

Siqing said: "It's been with me for a month, eating and sleeping every day, it's too heavy, it seems to make your chest hurt."

Jiang Feng smiled and put the cat on the ground, "I heard that the eldest princess is going back to Beijing?"

Siqing said: "Last month, the people left behind by the king found the Xianju eldest princess who was hidden by Han Shouchen in a deserted place in the mountains south of Jingjiang. The eldest princess has already left for Beijing."

Jiang Feng said: "The eldest princess is a miserable person."

When Yunchu came to serve tea, Jiang Feng saw her smiling and said, "I heard that Yuchu has also left the palace, and only Miss Yunchu is left beside His Highness."

Siqing said, "I asked her what she thought, but she didn't make a sound."

Yun Chu laughed and said, "Young lady was talking to my uncle and wife, and what did you want me to do?" He put down the tea tray, turned around and slipped away.

Siqing asked Jiang Feng again: "By the way, did Uncle Wu write to you during the festival?"

Jiang Feng shook his head, "The two of them, unless they return to Beijing by themselves, they don't want us to bother them anymore."

Siqing smiled, and Jiang Feng said: "Spring is here, and Liang Fen said that he wants to go south to see the goods. I'm thinking that I will go back to Fuzhou for a walk when nothing happens in February."

Siqing said, "Brother just can't stay."

Jiang Feng said: "They are going back to live in the south. Liang Fen will go south this time to take care of the residence first, and then return to Beijing to wait for the weather to cool down in autumn before moving with his family."

Siqing said: "Yuan Xigong is acting as the agent of the war book, probably he can't leave, and Uncle Wu's family is not in Beijing, if you go back to Fuzhou, will you go back by yourself?"

Jiang Feng said: "It's not too far away. I'll go back by myself. I'll be back in less than half a month. There's nothing to do in February. I think Xu Huaimin is already familiar with everything, so I can leave Beijing with ease."

Siqing nodded, "My son Ling Bo sent a letter saying that he has settled down in Liudu. To be honest, I am quite reluctant to let Lingbo go to Liudu."

After Jiang Feng left, Siqing wandered aimlessly in Xiyuan.She was wearing a cinnamon-coloured gown with slanted gussets and large sleeves. She tucked the gown at her waist with a light blue pleated skirt, and she wore a long light green shawl, with one end draped over her shoulders and the other over her shoulders. in the elbow.Passing by the Chengming Hall, I saw a slender woman standing on the curved bridge in the distance bowing her knees and saluting, not saluting to herself.Siqing took a closer look and saw that Xiao Yi happened to be passing Quqiao.

For some reason, Siqing felt a little uncomfortable.Before changing to Xining 17 years ago, she must have turned around and walked away.Today, her feet are not directed by her brain, and she is striding towards the bridge.

Mrs. Pei hurriedly saluted Siqing, Xiao Yi smiled and watched Siqing approaching, Siqing said to Mrs Pei: "There is no need to be too polite."

Mrs. Pei resigned knowingly, Xiao Yi smiled lightly and said, "I have never found that watching the sunset here is very beautiful."

Siqing pulled the long cloak forward, took Xiao Yi's arm, and smelled the faint scent of osmanthus on Xiao Yi's body.Xiao Yi asked: "Why are you silent?"

Siqing didn't know what to say, she just thought about the sunset at this moment, the beauty on the bridge could only belong to her.

After Xiaojing Wang Xiaoyu failed to force the palace, Xiao Yi was obviously more cold-hearted than before.Cheng Yingzhou committed suicide. In the past, Xiao Yi would have been furious, but he didn't.

When Siqing was finally tempted, his heart was as cold, hard and brittle as jade.Si Qing uncontrollably lowered her posture to approach him, but it was hard to hear his heartbeat as before.

Siqing remembered that when Liang Lingzhen was still in Beijing in Xining 22 years ago, she once said to Liang Lingzhen: "Love is the most worthless thing in this world." Thinking about it now is ridiculous, this sentence can no longer be said by Siqing herself .

After half a month, the weather turned warmer, Gu Heng wanted to return to Beijing before the heat, so he hurried to the south.Two days later, Jiang Feng also came to say goodbye to Siqing and return to Fuzhou.
