dream back to qing dynasty

Chapter 30
"Yanhong, go and get that soft lotus pillow; Pearl, go to the kitchen and ask the cook to boil a bowl of lotus seed soup..."

"Yes, servant girl is going now..." Under Si Fujin's non-stop instructions, I was served and leaned on a beautiful couch, and I saw the maids and eunuchs busy in the room.My wrist was swollen a long time ago, and my ankle was also in burning pain, but I didn't care about it at all, I just looked up at Cheng Chen above my head, and in the flickering candlelight, there were only ambiguous shadows reflected.Fourth Master's home, his house, the air seems to contain Fourth Master's breath, just floating around me like that...

"Xiaowei."

"Ah." I woke up with a start, and turned to look at Nalashi, who turned her body and sat on the couch, and then wiped the sweat on my forehead with a handkerchief.A sweet fragrance came to my nostrils, my breath was stagnant, and I tried to wait for her to finish wiping before I dared to resume breathing quietly. "It hurts a lot, right? Look at you in a trance, the imperial doctor will be here soon, if you bear with it, Fourth Sister-in-law will be urged again." Si Fujin said in a soft voice.I pulled my face vigorously and made a smile: "I'm fine, it's just that the fourth sister-in-law is so worried, it makes me uneasy."

"Look at what you said. Don't say that we are relatives and sisters. I treat you like a sister in my heart. How can there be so much politeness between sisters?" Nala looked at him slightly annoyed. I.I smiled slightly: "Sister-in-law Si said yes, but I thought things wrong." After speaking, I felt my heart beating for a while, and I couldn't help holding my heart with my hand, and took two deep breaths.Seeing me like this, Nala turned around and called the maid next to her: "Go and see how this Qin Quan'er does things, and where to ask for the imperial physician."

"Yes." The little girl hastily withdrew.

"Close your eyes and lie down, don't talk anymore."

I nodded lightly, naturally wishing for it in my heart.Talking to Sifujin makes me feel tired... Tired.

As soon as I closed my eyes, I heard the sound of the door curtain and a light footstep.I only heard her seem to come to Si Fujin's side, trying to lower her voice and say something to Na Lashi, I only vaguely heard the words "Master Nian", before I stretched my ears to listen, I felt that Lashi's eyes swept back to me.My heart trembled, and I tried my best to show a sleepy look of pain, fatigue and ignorance on my face.After a while, there was a rustling sound of clothes, and it felt that Si Fujin lifted himself up from the couch and walked out, and the room immediately fell silent.I just closed my eyes, feeling the night breeze blowing on my face, and the golden iron horses under the eaves made clinking sounds from time to time, and the gentleness of silence was somewhat bleak.My heart was heavy and blocked, like a sponge that had been squeezed by someone, leaving some wetness on it...

"Crash!"As soon as the pearl curtain in the inner room rang, human voices also rang out: "Doctor Lu, please go this way." I was startled, and when I opened my eyes, it was Niu Hulu's voice, and Sifujin...before After thinking about it again, the imperial physician has already walked up to me, flicked his sleeves and bowed in salute: "The minister Lu Wenkang has seen the thirteen Fujin, and the Fujin is auspicious." I raised my body slightly, "Hiss—" I couldn't help grinning Grinning, "The imperial doctor please get up quickly." Niu Hulu took two steps forward in a hurry: "Sister, don't move." He stretched out his hand to help me, and then turned around and said to the little girls: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you give it to me quickly?" The imperial doctor moved the chair and brought the handkerchief, and the bracelet has to be taken off, is the blind person blind?!" The room was suddenly in a state of confusion.

"Sister, don't worry, it's fine." I patted the back of Niu Hulu's hand with my other hand. "How can you not be in a hurry, look at your face, the rice paper on the table is more colorful than yours." Niu Hulu gave me an angry look, and I couldn't help but smile.The imperial physician at the side said: "Fu Jins, don't worry, let me come and treat you." Niu Hulu nodded and moved out of the way.

It hurts!Although Physician Lu was careful everywhere, the wound was like this, it would be fine if you didn't move it, as soon as it moved, it seemed that all the sensory nerves ran there by themselves and roared wildly.I gritted my teeth and endured it, and I don't know how long it took before Imperial Physician Lu gently put my hand down.

"Emperor doctor, how are you?" Niu Hulu asked while wiping the sweat from my brow.Physician Lu said with a smile: "Don't worry, Fujins, the bones are a bit misaligned, but they haven't cracked, so it's all right. You just need to fix it for a while, don't move heavy objects, and don't overwork. I estimate that within three months It must be fine." He paused, "It must be painful for a while, and I will prescribe some prescriptions to relieve the pain, but this kind of medicine can't be taken too much, so Fujin still has to bear it."

"Yeah." I smiled, "I understand, it's really hard work for you." The doctor Lu who was wiping his sweat hastily bowed: "I really don't dare to be a minister, and Fujin's ankle is also sprained, don't worry about it these two days Walk around, and I will prescribe some prescriptions for clearing swelling and removing stasis, you take it on time, and within three to five days, the swelling subsides, and you will be fine."

"Okay, I see." I nodded lightly, feeling very tired now, and leaned back again. "Come on, please ask the imperial physician to go to the wing room to prescribe the prescription, and then go to boil the medicine. Imperial physician Lu, you have worked really hard today." Niu Hulu said with a smile, and imperial physician Lu was busy saying a few more words of humility, and followed the girl we went down.Niu Hulu was adjusting the position of the pillow for me, when I heard Qin Quan'er's voice in the yard: "Doctor Lu, the fourth master is in the study, please go over." Niu Hulu moved his hand Stiff, and continued to tidy up as if nothing had happened.I didn't dare to look at her face, and didn't know what to say for a while, I just pretended to be uncomfortable and closed my eyes, pretending that I didn't hear it.After a while, the girl came in with two pills, saying that they were the pills given by the imperial doctor, to relieve pain and reduce stasis, and she waited for me to take them before leaving again.

"Dangdang..." The chiming clock in the house rang a few times, feeling very dry, and it was almost ten o'clock at night, "Alas..." Niu Hulu suddenly sighed faintly, this time I couldn't pretend that I didn't hear it anyway, and I couldn't help but sighed in my heart, opened my eyes, and turned my head slightly to look at her.She was staring blankly at a certain place outside the window, where the lights were dimly lit, making the window looming.

"Sister Min," I called her softly. "Ah?" Niu Hulu looked back, her face was covered with a layer of mist, she looked at me a little blankly, and slowly her eyes became focused.I was actually a little uncomfortable in my heart, but at this juncture, I couldn't show it anyway. Just as I was thinking about what to say, Niu Hulu suddenly smiled self-consciously: "I know why Bafujin is acting like this today." Did you bother me?" I couldn't help being startled, and squinted at her unconsciously, but Niu Hulu reached out to take the teacup on the side, and played it unconsciously in his hand without saying a word.Just when I almost lost my patience, she turned her eyes to look at me, "The eighth master once went to beg for yours, but the fourth master and the thirteenth master went to beg the master first, it's just a step earlier." Speaking of the fourth master At that moment, a bitterness flashed in Niu Hulu's eyes, he lowered his head and pretended to drink tea, and covered it up.

I opened my mouth, but I couldn't say anything. It's not that I haven't thought about the ins and outs of going to Changchun Palace back then, but at that time, I didn't expect to be so entangled with Yinxiang and Fourth Master in the future, and I didn't feel that I was an important person. There is no need to spend such and such thoughts, as long as all this happens just let nature take its course.But if the thirteenth, fourth or even fourteenth masters are affectionate towards me, then why is the eighth master?I don't believe he's in love with me. Could it be that he wants to bring me over to fight against the so-called Si Ye's party, or use me to drive a wedge between Yinxiang and Si Ye, so that he can reap the benefits of the fisherman, but... for a while It was a mess, and all kinds of thoughts kept turning in my mind like a computer scrolling the screen.

"Xiaowei." Niu Hulu called me softly. "Huh?" I responded subconsciously, still guessing in my mind, and forced myself to stop thinking about it, and turned my attention back to Niu Hulu. "Yin Yan'er was born under Eighth Master's banner, don't you know?" What! ?As soon as my brain exploded, Yin Yan'er...all kinds of her past towards me immediately flashed in my mind, no wonder...she treated me like that, and she was so self-confident.Then how could she be assigned to the Changchun Palace, but she immediately understood that this was just one of the court's tricks.Then I thought about everything about me in Changchun Palace, I am afraid that there is nothing Ba Ye and the others don't know about, and when my body was cold, I couldn't help shivering. "I just heard what Mrs. Li said today." Niu Hulu's voice came leisurely. I swallowed, but it seemed as if I swallowed rubble, and it was cut from my throat with a hiss. He couldn't help holding his throat with his hands. "Few people know about this kind of thing, but it's impossible to say no one." Niu Hulu said with a half-smile. , I am afraid that people around me who are related to me will know.

The room fell silent, and Niu Hulu unconsciously looked at the window on the opposite side of the room. The more I thought about it, the more I felt a headache. It turned out that I just thought that Qixiang came from a wrong way. I thought I had thought too much about her. Now it seems that things are getting more and more complicated. It turned out that I was thinking too simple...

"Huh..." I let out a big breath, and leaned back relaxedly. Since I entered the palace, I have been either hacking or hiding all the way, thinking that I will eventually kill a bloody road... In the end, I found that I was originally I was just scrambling left and right in a fish tank, while those people were watching with a smile on the outside. When I secretly thought I was smart, how many people were there laughing secretly... I shook my head and temporarily put everything aside Son, my arms are only so long, there is always a place I can't reach, I can't cut off my hand just because of this, I'm afraid it's too late to blame myself now.

I turned my head, Niu Hulu was looking at me, I smiled: "I can't control these things, and I don't want to." Niu Hulu was startled, and looked at me probingly: "I just want to have a good time with Yinxiang Just live on, don't care what happens, die or live."

"Puchi", Niu Hulu laughed, and tapped his handkerchief on his cheek: "You really can think about it." I grinned: "That's right, all the troubles are caused by yourself."

"All my troubles are found by myself..." Niu Hulu muttered several times in a low voice, his eyes flashed, and he was about to speak when the door curtain rang, and two little girls came in with traditional Chinese medicine. She didn't say anything, just turned around and took it over, insisting on feeding me, but I declined but had no choice but to follow her.so bitter!I grinned, how many Coptis chinensis are put in here, that's not how to get rid of the fire, I couldn't help cursing the doctor Lu a few words.Niu Hulu still wanted to feed him spoonfuls, and leaned on me, took it over and raised his neck...

Finally, the torture was over, and the girl handed me honey water. This time, I couldn't wait for her slow and royal demeanor, so I hurriedly took it and drank it myself. "Hehe..." Mrs. Niu Hulu and the little girls all laughed, she passed the bowl to the girl, and said with a smile: "Is it so hard?" I smacked my lips: "It's okay, But why put on airs and embarrass yourself." Niu Hulu clapped his hands and looked up at me.I pretended I didn't see it, but I just lowered my eyelids to cover up the helplessness in my eyes, people here are like this, they have to think about everything they say casually, men are like this, women are like this...

"Fan Fujin, Fujin said she couldn't leave there, so I asked you to take care of it." Niu Hulu stood up and said, "Understood, you go back to Fujin, please rest assured." The little girl blessed Fu , and said to me: "Thirteen Fujin, our Fujin really can't leave now, and my son will come later and I'm afraid of disturbing your rest. If it's okay, she will come here early in the morning. Fujin said, what's wrong with you , or if you want to speak up, don’t be polite, Sisao’s place is the same as at home.” I nodded hurriedly, and said with a smile: “You go back and tell your master, just say that Sisao is thinking about it, my place I'm fine after taking the medicine, and it's the same with Sister Niu Hulu by my side."

"Yes, I have remembered." The little girl lightly blessed Fu's body, turned around and retreated.Seeing her go out, Niu Hulu suddenly sneered, and I looked at her: "Nian..." Her lips moved.ah?I was taken aback for a moment, and then I understood that she was talking about the reason why Si Fujin couldn't come.Nianshi?Just now I seem to have heard her name, what happened to that woman... Although I have some doubts in my heart, I never want to ask, and I faintly feel that it is not a good thing to get involved with her, let her go.Seeing that I didn't care about it, Niu Hulu must have felt a little strange, but she didn't say anything more, she just smiled softly: "Sister, you should go to bed early, don't be afraid of getting sick, just be afraid that you won't have a good rest, I'll go wash up After a while, I will come back to accompany you." I smiled and nodded: "Miss Min, go quickly, I am not a child anymore." Niu Hulu gave me a smile, turned and went out.

A little girl came up to help me tuck the quilt, turned around and wanted to go out, "Hi!" I stopped her softly, she turned around and stopped in a hurry, Fu went down: "What else does Fujin want?"

"Where is that?" I asked lightly.She froze for a moment, and followed my gaze to the place where Niu Hulu's eyes were confused just opposite my room. "Oh, there." She smiled, "That's fourth master's study."

Although I had already guessed it subconsciously, but when I heard the confirmation from others, my heart was still tight, and then it became sour...

"Fu Jin." The little girl called me in a low voice, but I didn't want to answer her at all, I was just dazed, and at some point, she had already retreated.The breeze with the faint fragrance of lilacs blows in so softly and greasyly, the water vapor at night forms a thin layer of fog, the lights on the opposite side are faintly visible, the eyes seem to be unable to see clearly, but the heart sees abnormally clear.

"Crack", the unique sound of the bottom of the flower pot stepping on the ground came from outside the door, I closed my eyes gently, not wanting to be seen by others as the tears flowed out.The door curtain rang, and the fragrance of Niu Hulu's body came over first, and then she heard her walking up with light steps.My heart was like a storm, but my face was as calm as a statue, I couldn't help but smile wryly in my heart, I don't know if it's because my muscles are stiff or my acting skills are too good. "Xiaowei——" Niu Hulu called me softly, and after a while, seeing that I hadn't moved, she helped me tuck the corner of the quilt, then turned around and walked out lightly.What she explained to the girls outside the door, I didn't have the heart to listen, but I heard her footsteps gradually drifting away, and the surroundings became so quiet again for a while, and the silent depression was like that. Back and forth like a tide.

I slowly opened my eyes, thinking it should be tears in my eyes, I reached out to touch it, but my face and eyes were as dry as a dirt road in midsummer, scorching hot but unable to show it.The eyes felt abnormally hot, as if all the emotions were accumulated in the eyes like a flood, but the only outlet was cast to death by copper juice, just struggling helplessly like that.The wound on my hands and feet was aching, and I secretly hoped that it would hurt more. The pain made me forget everything in front of me... But... my eyes just stared at it unconsciously, unable to move Half a minute later, I don't know how long it took, the wind suddenly became stronger, the broken hair in front of my eyes floated with the wind, and a figure loomed indistinctly... I couldn't help but tightly grasped my chest with my hands, everything was just for a moment, but The stiff shoulders and lonely figure were like sharp paper, slashing across the surface of my heart...It hurts...

A person who sheds tears is not necessarily crying, and a person who cries may not necessarily be crying, so can he also cry... Thinking about such a scene, I chuckled, but the smile reflected in the bronze mirror beside me said no. The mocking and pitiful expressions turned out to be self-deprecating...

"Who have you loved and hated? When we first met, who would think about the ending, be reserved for you, be crazy about you, and then realize that the heartbeat is not all sunshine; if you are at a loss, it is the confused me, never leave, and is persistent. You; relatively speechless, unable to turn around and leave, did you hurt me, or did I hurt you; wandering around, dreaming back in the middle of the night, only tears, only tears..." Low, singing me over and over again I don’t know when I heard the song, and I can’t stop singing until my voice is hoarse. It seems that this is the only way to calm me down...

There seemed to be something moving on my face, I couldn't help frowning, and avoided it unconsciously, but the feeling couldn't go away... It was a hand gently stroking my cheek, and I froze for a while. , I realized that I fell asleep at some point, and before I figured out what was going on, a gust of hot air was blowing towards my face.My heart skipped a beat, and I swung my hand back subconsciously. There was a clear "snap", and my hand had already hit a person hard on the face. I opened my eyes suddenly and saw that a person Standing in front of me, I blinked hard and looked over again, I couldn't help laughing out loud, but the tears flowed down like a river breaking an embankment...

Yinxiang stroked his face with his hands, and stood there with his mouth wide open. Before he could react when he saw me laughing, he saw my tears pouring out in a blink of an eye.He was startled, so he couldn't care about anything, he stepped sideways and sat on the couch, holding me tightly in his arms, but carefully moved away my injured hand, while kissing my forehead, ears, coaxing me softly: "Okay, okay, don't cry."

It’s okay if he doesn’t speak. Hearing his soft comforting voice, I cried more and more until I choked. My depression finally found an outlet. Like a flood, I just wanted to rush around, but I didn’t care about what would be drowned. .Seeing me like this, Yinxiang no longer comforted me, just hugged me and shook me gently, after a while, he said something in a low voice, I was taken aback, he was speaking in Manchu... his mind froze, The crying sound also weakened, and after two sobs, the feeling of wanting to cry quickly disappeared.Yinxiang saw that I stopped crying, but just stared at him blankly, couldn't help smiling, took the handkerchief at hand, wiped my face lightly, and said with a smile: "It turns out that it only works if you say it like this." As soon as it was hot, there were a few murmurs, but nothing came out. "Hehe." Yinxiang smiled lightly by my ear, puffs of hot air sprayed on my ears, itchy... "I'm blushing, are you sorry?" I giggled twice, really embarrassed, But not because of what he said, but because I didn't understand what he said at all.Suddenly, I felt as if I was back in college. The old foreign teacher told me with a smile, but I could only look at him stupidly...

"Hiss—" My wrist hurt, and I gasped. Yinxiang was gently holding my wrist for inspection, but I was about to frown but saw Yinxiang's face was gloomy, and he quickly relaxed his face and pretended to be fine.Just now seeing Yin Xiang patronizingly cried, only then did he feel his wrists burning, maybe the painkiller medicine last night had worn off.

"Damn it!" Yinxiang squeezed two words between his teeth, my heart trembled, and I couldn't help trembling for a while, Yinxiang paused, and looked down at me: "Is it painful?" I smiled: "It's all right now, much better." He frowned, and just about to open his mouth, I gently stroked his cheek with the other hand. I haven't seen him for a day, and he seemed to be haggard. Only then did I see Yinxiang's face clearly. Eyes are bloodshot.Seeing me looking at him with pity, the hostility in Yinxiang's eyes disappeared a lot, but his face was still gloomy, he held my hand and rubbed it against his lips unconsciously, his lips were dry, Hissing on the back of my hand.

I just wanted to ask him how he came back, "Sister-in-law Fourth didn't explain what happened, she just said that you were injured at the Eight Fortune Jin banquet." After speaking, Yinxiang turned his eyes and stared at me seriously.I was taken aback, Nalashi... It turned out that she had notified Shisan, and a strange feeling came up for a while, but I didn't have time to think about it, I just smiled: "It's nothing, I stepped on the cat's tail yesterday and was caught It's also normal." Yinxiang was stunned, looked at me strangely for a while, and suddenly burst out laughing, I leaned in Yinxiang's arms, only felt the thick voice coming from his chest, shaking me Her ears were buzzing, but her heart was filled with indescribable relief.

"Hehe." Yinxiang shook his head again with a funny face, looked at me but didn't speak.I sighed in my heart, knowing that he was waiting for me to explain the ins and outs clearly, and I smiled back, but the matter must be clarified. A woman's words and deeds usually represent the attitude of the man behind her. I should have asked Nala's for a long time.While thinking about it, I have narrated the matter succinctly. Yinxiang listened to it from the beginning to the end with a blank face, but occasionally doubts, deep thoughts, gloomy and angry emotions flashed in his eyes, and in the end it was only with an inexplicable emotion. Looking at me, I couldn't understand, but I became nervous unconsciously.Just as he was secretly speculating, Yinxiang suddenly smiled, his face was already breezy, without any trace, seeing me staring at him with wide eyes, crooked his mouth, and smiled: "Stay away from that tigress from now on. , that's a notoriously powerful girl, even our Eighth Master, we can't do anything to her."

"Hehe." I chuckled softly, nodded and said, "I know, I won't go to the Baye's Mansion again, playing the Que'er card to clear the vacancies, I will definitely give up this class."

"Puchi", Yinxiang burst out laughing, and helped me straighten the broken hair by my ears with a smile, "This is just like you, you cried like that just now, it really shocked me, I've never seen you like this. "Thinking about it, I feel a little embarrassed. I glanced at him and said in a low voice: "I want to cry when I see you..." Yin Xiang was taken aback, looking at me, his eyes gradually softened as if they could melt iron and stone. It also turned red, and I only felt thin sweat coming out of my forehead and nose wings.I was about to wipe it with a handkerchief, when my eyes went dark, Yinxiang's dry lips pressed against my lips and lingered... My heart was beating suddenly, but the thoughts in my head were twisted like twists and turns, I couldn't think of anything Since then, I don’t think about anything, I just deeply feel Yinxiang’s wholeheartedness...

"哧哧" an inaudible chuckle came into my ears, but it sounded like thunder. I pushed Yinxiang away and looked over with a heavy breath. Nala's, Niuhulu's Mrs. Niu Hulu, Mrs. Li, and the maid girl were standing at the door looking at us... Niu Hulu, Mrs. Li and the maids blushed a long time ago, covered their faces with handkerchiefs and sniggered, but Nala's His face was calm, but a trace of comfort flashed in his eyes.My face was blushing at first, but seeing her eyes made me cool down quickly.

"Sister-in-law four, why do you get up so early?" Yinxiang didn't care about being seen, stood up with a smile and gave Nalashi and the others a big blow.Nala smiled: "Why, do you think I'm in your way because I came early?"

"Hehe..." The women behind her laughed again.Yinxiang smiled, but before he could say anything else, a little eunuch entered the door and said back and forth: "Master, Imperial Physician Lu is already waiting." Nala nodded: "Wait another quarter of an hour and invite the imperial physician to come in." Turning back to face Mrs. Li and the others said, "Go and help Xiaowei tidy up." Mrs. Niu Hulu and the others hurried up to help me get up.The little eunuch turned around and said to Yin Xiang: "The Thirteenth Master, the Fourth Master is waiting for you in Huaiyuan Pavilion, please go over." Thirteenth nodded: "Got it, you wait outside, I'll just wait for you." past."

"Cha." The little eunuch gave a slap and retreated.Yinxiang turned around and looked at me, I nodded slightly, and he smiled.Li Shi on the side laughed and said: "It's just so reluctant. Don't worry, Shisan Lord, we will definitely serve Shisan Fujin comfortably, so you can go down-to-earth." Everyone in the room laughed.Yinxiang smiled brightly: "Then I will trouble you sisters-in-law." After speaking, he blinked at me, turned around and left.Niu Hulu said with a smile: "I've never seen someone who loves his wife so much as the Thirteenth Master." I smiled dryly: "Newly married, newly married." Nala also laughed.I was chatting with everyone in the house, "I'm sorry, I'm late..." Nian's voice sounded outside the room, I was startled, and before I could remember it, I saw Nala's face darken , Mrs. Niu Hulu and Mrs. Li looked at each other in embarrassment... I couldn't help but frown, I didn't care about so much last night, did something happen...
