Noble First Daughter-in-law

At noon that day, Song Yu and Ma Xu led the brigade out of Fufeng.

Although the armed forces were mobilized, the core of the team was dozens of water tankers. Seeing this, the people in the city braved the scorching sun to send them off at the gate of the city. After all, water is a matter of life and death for the whole city. These troops escorted the water tanker to the upper reaches of the Xiaolin River, and the crowd rejoiced, and the sound of cheers spread far away.

After leaving the city gate and walking a long distance, Ma Xu, who could hear the cheers behind him, swayed on the horse's back with one hand holding the rein, and said impatiently, "There's nothing to be happy about."

Song Yu, who was walking beside him, said: "The common people have no water to use, don't you expect us to fetch some water back to save lives?"

Ma Xu rolled his eyes: "The generals of the imperial court are now reduced to fetching water for others."

Song Yu sneered and said, "It sounds like you don't want to come out."

"..."

"Okay, don't complain, we have brought out this big team this time, if we really meet Xue Xian's people, we have to deal with it well."

"response?"

Ma Xu's eyes froze, and he said: "I must kill them, and avenge the last time!"

Seeing his excited look, Song Yu shook his head helplessly.

Because of the water truck, the team couldn't move forward at full speed, so they could only move forward slowly along the river bank, with the surging river on one side and the dense forest outside the city on the other. After a while, the tall city gate and tower behind them were no longer visible .Ma Xu glanced back, but seemed to remember something, and said in a low voice: "By the way, do you feel that the eldest son seems to be—"

Song Yu looked up at him: "Huh?"

Ma Xu glanced left and right again, and the soldiers around him all lowered their heads, as listless as the sun-baked leaves, and no one paid attention to their words, so he lowered his voice and said, "Didn't you say before, Yuwen?" The Eldest Young Master is with Mr. Yu's family - but I've been watching for the past two days, why does he talk to the general's wife all the time."

"..."

"It seems that there is something between the two of them."

Song Yu frowned slowly.

After a long silence, he said: "Although I don't know what the eldest son is thinking, he can't confront his younger siblings in front of everyone."

Having said that, his face darkened again, and he said, "However, that general's wife doesn't seem to be a good friend."

"she?"

Ma Xu asked: "What about her? Didn't she stop investigating—that matter?"

For him, the arson was their biggest excuse. Although Song Yu had repeatedly assured last night that they did not leave any clues for others to investigate, being a thief is always a guilty conscience, and he always has that feeling in his heart. sharp edge.

Song Yu said, "That's right, that's what my subordinates said."

"..."

"She asked about the cause of the fire in front of Yin Changyue and the others last night, and asked someone to investigate. It was just like what we thought, so she also decided that it was just an accident."

"Then what are you worried about?"

"..."

Song Yu didn't speak immediately, but frowned a little bit more, especially when she recalled that Yu Wenzhen almost passed the words to Shang Ruyi's mouth just now, but she unexpectedly and calmly shirked everything.

This performance, if not too stupid, is too smart.

Which one is she?

Recalling the news he received from Daxing City before, Song Yu murmured: "I always feel that she is planning something."

Walking under the scorching sun like a fireball, I walked for a few miles, and finally came to a river with clear and clear water, without any sediment, and far away from the Beijing Temple that exudes a strong smell of corruption. I confirmed that the water source here was not polluted. The team stopped immediately.

Song Yu said, "Get water quickly."

The soldiers stopped immediately, set the water tanker to the bank of the river and began to fetch water.

There are also some people, whose whole bodies are hot from the sun, can't wait to walk to the river at this time, drink to their heart's content, and even splash the clear river water on their bodies, feeling a burst of coolness and comfort.

However, Ma Xu did not participate in it.

Sitting on his horse, he looked at the other side of the river, patrolled the environment upstream and downstream, and said: "It's not that the Longxi Army has been lurking in the upper reaches, and our people are stopped by them as soon as they come. Is it? Why is there no one today?"

Song Yu also got off the horse and drank a couple of sips of water.

Hearing this, he couldn't help turning his head and laughing: "Why, are you still expecting them to come?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind suddenly blew from behind. The soldiers who were already wet by the river water felt a chill down their bones, especially Song Yu shivered inexplicably.He subconsciously looked at the lush dense forest behind him, only to hear the rustling of branches and leaves, as if countless shadows were hiding in it.

But when I looked closely, there was nothing there.

Ma Xu also looked back, frowning, obviously a little disappointed.

He originally rushed out of the city to meet the Longxi army and fought a battle, but he didn't expect that the people who fetched water were blocked, and he didn't even see Xue Xian when he came out, so he was a little discouraged.

Song Yu heaved a sigh of relief, but he also raised his vigilance: "It's a good thing no one stopped me. It's a credit to go back after getting water."

Ma Xu snorted coldly: "What kind of credit is this?"

At the same time, in the quiet room in the inner courtyard of the government office, Shang Ruyi was sitting by the bed, cooling a spoonful of rice soup exuding the warm rice fragrance, and feeding it to Yu Wenye's mouth.

He was sleepy, so naturally he couldn't take the initiative to speak.

Shang Ruyi used a spoon to pry open his jaw, and gently pushed it in. After a while, he heard a "gudong", and he swallowed it.

Shang Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Just like that, she patiently drank half a bowl of rice soup for Yu Wenye bit by bit. At this moment, she heard Wo Xue's voice from outside the screen: "Young Madam."

"Ok?"

Shang Ruyi calmly took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of Yu Wenye's mouth before getting up and going out.I saw Wo Xue kneeling and sitting on a low table. On the table was a tissue paper roll that she opened, which was wrapped with Jiangzhenxiang, mugwort leaves and other herbs. At a glance, I knew it was usually used for smoking, but last night It was because it was mixed with Uncaria, which can cause people to faint, and it almost caused a catastrophe, so Wo Xue specially took it apart and looked at it carefully.

But if she doesn't understand medicine, she has to ask Shang Ruyi.

She asked: "Young Madam, there is no poison in these medicines, right?"

Shang Ruyi came over to take a look, and said with a smile: "No problem, they are all common medicinal materials, which can be used."

Only then did Lying Xue heave a sigh of relief.

So she rolled up the paper tube, ignited a section as before, and then extinguished the flame. Suddenly, a medicine box floated out with the smoke, and Wo Xue carefully sniffed it to her nose to make sure she was not Feeling unwell, he walked into the inner room with the paper tube, waved it around the bed where Yu Wenye was lying on for a while, and then smoked it all over the house again.

Just when the room was filled with the fragrance of medicine, the falsely concealed door was suddenly pushed open.

"Wow!"

He heard Shan Tong'er let out a low cry, thinking that there was a big fire inside again, and rushed in, but saw Shang Ruyi sitting at the low table, looking like an old god, so he was relieved.
He hurried to Shang Ruyi's side: "Sister Ruyi."

Shang Ruyi smiled and looked up at him. Although he led the guards around the yard all night last night, the child's spirit is good, and now he looks full of energy again.Then he asked him, "Have you rested yet? Have you eaten yet?"

Shan Tong'er nodded hurriedly: "I'm full!"

"So, how's it going outside?"

"I sent someone to follow along. Song Yu and Ma Xu have already led people out of the city."

"Master Yin, what about them?"

"They all went to the top of the city tower. I heard that a lot of people have gathered in the city. They are afraid that something unexpected will happen this time."

"Oh……"

Shang Ruyi nodded, then stood up, and said to Wo Xue, "Stay in the room and don't go anywhere. Let's go out to do something."

Wo Xue seemed to feel something, and didn't ask any further questions, just nodded and said: "Yes."

So, Shang Ruyi took Shan Tong'er outside, the sun was burning like fire on the way, and she was sweating before reaching the gate.While walking, Shantonger thought of something again, and asked softly, "Sister Ruyi, where did Brother Nie go?"

"Ok?"

"I haven't been able to find him since last night, and I didn't see him when I went back to rest today. Did he go somewhere?"

"I asked him to do something for me, and he hasn't come back yet."

"……Oh."

Shantong'er blinked her eyes, as if she wanted to ask a little curiously, but after thinking about it, she still didn't say anything more.Just when the two were about to reach the gate, he said again: "By the way, I didn't find a carriage, so I had to ask them to prepare a horse."

Shang Ruyi smiled and said, "It's the same when riding a horse."

As soon as the words fell, the two had already walked out of the gate, but when they looked up, they saw a carriage parked outside the gate.

Both of them were stunned for a moment. Before they could react, they saw a tall and handsome figure walking out from behind the carriage. He was dressed in green clothes like a cloud. Even standing under the scorching sun, he still gave people an inexplicable sense of tranquility. .

It's Yuwen.

Seeing him, Shang Ruyi's breath suddenly sank, and Yu Wenzhen smiled and said, "Just now I heard that my brother and sister are going out, so I asked someone to prepare a carriage."

"..."

"It's so hot, it's better not to ride a horse."

Shang Ruyi frowned unconsciously.

However, she didn't hesitate for too long, she just took a step forward and said with a smile: "This is too much trouble, brother."

"Family, what trouble do you say?"

"However, do you know what I'm going to do?"

"..."

Yu Wenzhen shook his head and said with a smile, "I don't really know."

A look of inquiry flashed across Shang Ruyi's eyes: "Then, why does Big Brother help me prepare the carriage?"

Yu Wenzhen looked down at her, and there was no ripple in Qingming's eyes, he just smiled and said: "I said last night, after that letter was sent back to Daxing, I will not urge my younger siblings to leave Fufeng with Feng Chen. You You can let go of whatever you want to do next.”

"..."

"I will help you."
