Chapter 126 Returning to Beijing, the Most Familiar Stranger 2
Xue Lan's face was distorted, and her complexion was as pale as paper.Sitting weakly on the stool, leaning weakly on the table, there is no trace of emotion in a pair of empty eyes.Suddenly, she seemed to see the snow in northern Xinjiang.
A flurry of snow fell into the fire that night.
Pain and weakness are accompanied by the loss of life.
Suddenly, she came back to her senses, straightened her expression, and stumbled towards the door.She couldn't die, how could she just die like this when she just found the person she was looking for?She is not reconciled, how can she be reconciled.
Lu Guoan has already made arrangements for Xue Lan, so she is special in the eyes of everyone in Dongchang.No one dared to stop her, she was free to go wherever she wanted.
At this moment, she had to go to the magistrate's yamen. If Wang Shaojun really died, then she would die too.
So—no matter what, she can't let Wang Shaojun have an accident, otherwise...
But how should she talk to Mu Baili?Wang Shaojun was in death row, no matter how much the people in Dongchang feared her, they would not dare to let her take Wang Shaojun away.Fortunately, when she went, Mu Baili was still there.
Just as Mu Baili was about to get on the carriage, Xue Lan got off the horse.
She said she turned over and got off the horse, but in fact she fell off the horse's back. She fell powerlessly on the ground, clutching her painful heart tightly.With a gray face, without a trace of blood, she lay there for a long time without getting up.
Mu Baili frowned, Lu Guoan understood, and quickly stepped forward to help Xue Lan, "Miss Lan?"
Xue Lan opened her eyes and looked at him, Mu Baili walked up to her unhurriedly, bent down and squatted down, "What's going on?"
"I, I have something to tell you, you—" She looked around, obviously this was not the place to talk.
Mu Baili closed his eyes, then took her from Lu Guoan's hand, and carried Xue Lan inside.In the hall, he gently placed Xue Lan on the stool and let her sit against the table, "You don't seem to be injured, what's going on?"
"I want to see Wang Shaojun." Xue Lan was dying, as if she would die at any moment.
Lu Guoan was puzzled, "Could it be that Wang Shaojun poisoned Miss Lan?"
Hearing this, Mu Baili immediately stepped forward and sat beside Xue Lan, and stretched out his hand to pinch her wrist.Although he doesn't know how to see a doctor, he can still find out if someone who practices martial arts has been poisoned.Looking at the pulse, it doesn't seem like poisoning.
If she looks poisoned on the outside but there is no sign of poisoning on the pulse, it can show that she is most likely planted with a Gu by Wang Shaojun.Gu is not regarded as poison, because Gu and human are fused together, it is another invisible existence.
Integrate into flesh and blood, coexist with life.
Not like poison but better than poison, this is the most poisonous.
Thinking of this, Mu Baili stared at Xuelan with gloomy eyes, "Did Wang Shaojun put a poison on you?" He knew a little about the poison, so even if Xuelan didn't make a sound, he knew the general idea .
Lu Guoan's expression froze, "Planting a Gu? What should I do? I will be tortured immediately in a humble position, and Wang Shaojun must be made to spit out the antidote."
Mu Baili raised his hand, "What kind of Gu?"
Xue Lan bit her thin lips tightly, her expression slightly aggravated, "Life and death Gu."
"What is Life and Death Gu?" Lu Guoan was puzzled.
But seeing Mu Baili stand up slowly, a ruthless look flashed across his phoenix eyes.He just looked at Xue Lan, watching intently.Until Xue Lan lowered her head, her peerless face dimmed all expressions.
"Everything in this world has a definite number. Xue Lan, I give you a life, so you can do it yourself." After saying that, Mu Baili turned around with a flick of his sleeves.
"Brother?" she called out hoarsely.
Mu Baili paused, "Follow!"
Lu Guoan helped Xue Lan and took Xue Lan to the death row.Wang Shaojun on the wooden frame was already dying, blood filled the air, covering his sight.He tried hard to open his eyes, but he still couldn't see everything in front of him clearly.
He was really hurt too badly, he was the magistrate's son, he had never suffered such a pain, so he couldn't bear it.
Mu Baili walked out without saying a word, leaving Xue Lan in the torture chamber.
His own governor didn't speak, and Lu Guoan naturally couldn't speak up, so he could only follow Mu Baili out of the room.
Seeing that the gate of the punishment room was closed, Xue Lan tightly clutched her aching heart, and stepped forward slowly to check if Wang Shaojun was still alive, "Is he still alive?" She reached out to feel Wang Shaojun's neck artery, and it was okay, he could still jump.
Immediately, he drew his sword and broke Wang Shaojun's body-binding rope.
With a muffled sound, Wang Shaojun slipped from the wooden frame and fell to the ground.He heard the voice carefully just now, it was Xue Lan's.It was the woman he loved the most in this life, it was Xue Lan.
"Give me the antidote." Xuelan grabbed Wang Shaojun's skirt, her face pale as paper, "Since you said you love me, why did you drag me to die with you? Wang Shaojun, you hypocrite!"
Through the blood on his eyelashes, Wang Shaojun finally saw that the woman in front of him was undoubtedly Xuelan.He was delighted, that bloody face finally burst into a ferocious smile, which was enough to make people tremble with fear.
"Xue Lan." He was short of breath, and grabbed her hand firmly, "I've finally been waiting for you. Xue Lan, don't leave me."
"Where's the antidote for the life-death Gu?" Xue Lan felt that she was almost the same as Wang Shaojun, and she could only breathe a sigh of relief, "I don't want to die, if you give me the antidote, it's my begging. Wang Shaojun, you heard No?"
"Xue Lan!" Wang Shaojun called her name in a low voice. He thought that the only person in his life who wanted to be gentle with her was her, "Didn't I tell you? Once the life and death Gu is planted on the body, you and I are the antidote for each other, there is no other way. The life and death Gu will never stop dying."
Xue Lan closed her eyes heavily, "What will you do to let me go? I've said it countless times, I don't love you, not at all. I've already found him, so...Wang Shaojun, you will destroy me. "
"I just want to be with you." Wang Shaojun's voice was hoarse.
She found her fiancé?
So?
So her heart was settled, and he became a lonely ghost?Is he no longer possible?But they are already husband and wife?
He said, "Xue Lan, I really like you. We have married and are already husband and wife. Don't abandon me. I can give you everything, including my life."
But she doesn't care about his life, what she wants is Ran Heng, not Wang Shaojun.
"Then, I can only settle for the next best thing." Xue Lan said in a low voice.
Wang Shaojun's heart trembled, he didn't know what her so-called "best second best" was, but he knew that she would never leave him again from now on, so—no matter how difficult it was, they could be together.
----------
When Zhao Wuyou went back, Jian Yan had already washed and washed off the dust in the cellar.He is still one of the best handsome young men in the capital, a playboy, and the admiration object of many women.
He stood in the sun and looked at her, smiling extremely warmly.The way he looked at her was always warm, and the corners of his lips were always smiling.Suxi knew that Jian Yan liked Zhao Wuyou, so she quietly withdrew.
Zhao Wuyou glanced at Su Xi, who was knowledgeable and interesting, and sighed helplessly.
Even if Lang is affectionate, sister may not be interested.Even if Lang has a lover and concubine, so what if the world is intolerable?Walking slowly to Jian Yan, Zhao Wuyou's face turned pale, and he slightly raised his lips and smiled, "Why don't you take a good rest?"
"I should ask you this." Jian Yan gathered the shawl for her, "It's summer now, but you are not in good health, and you are most afraid of the cold, why don't you know how to cherish yourself?" After finishing speaking, he Holding her hand, "Your hand is still so cold."
Zhao Wuyou hastily withdrew his hand, looked around with a slightly embarrassed expression, but fortunately there was no one around.Feeling relieved, Zhao Wuyou let out a long breath, "This is not Shangshufu, not my Tingfeng Building, you should restrain yourself!"
Then he said, "This post house is full of Dongchang's eyeliner, don't let Mu Baili get some tricks in his hands, it will be hard for you and me."
Jian Yan nodded, "I didn't take your situation into consideration."
Zhao Wuyou sighed lightly, "I'll feel better when I get back to the capital." She coughed lightly twice, "I'm tired, so go back to my room and rest, don't wander around. Although the plague in the city has subsided, But the minds of the common people have not completely calmed down, so it is inevitable that they will be a little chaotic."
"I know, just don't worry, I won't make trouble with you." Jian Yan smiled, "Go to sleep, I will watch outside the door, just like before, you can sleep in peace."
She nodded and smiled, "Okay!"
With him, it is naturally the best.
When we return to the capital, everything will return to the original state.Everything will return to the state of a pool of stagnant water.
Zhao Wuyou fell asleep drowsily, this time he slept very deeply, when he woke up, his forehead felt chilly.She opened her eyes, and Jian Yan's worried eyes met her eyes.With a forced smile on his lips, Zhao Wuyou said in a low voice, "Why did you come in?"
Jian Yan twisted the wet towel and changed the towel on her forehead, "If I hadn't come in, you don't know how long you would faint. You don't even know you have a fever, do you know how dangerous it is?"
"I have a fever again?" Zhao Wuyou sighed softly, "This body is really getting more and more useless."
These days, she has been going back and forth for a long time, and if she continues like this, she will probably die young.
Jian Yan's eyes darkened slightly, "Don't talk nonsense, your body will get better. As long as I am here, I will guard you, and I will guard you for the rest of my life. Hehuan, don't be afraid, no matter what the price is, I will heal you you."
"My father has searched all over the world for famous doctors, and even the royal doctor in the palace can't help. What can you, a scholar, do?" Zhao Wuyou tried his best to support himself, and rested on the cushion.In the candlelight, her complexion glowed with distressing red and white.
The way she looked at him showed a trace of ailment and complexity, "Jian Yan, I'm sorry."
Jian Yan was taken aback, "Why do you say sorry?"
She lowered her head and smiled, "I lost that jade pendant."
"What jade pendant?" Jian Yan was puzzled.
"Pear Blossom Jade Pendant." Zhao Wuyou pursed his lips, "I took it back from Mu Baili, but not long ago, I accidentally lost it and couldn't get it back."
Jian Yan closed his eyes and held her cold hand in silence.
After a long time, he smiled and said, "It's okay, when I return to the capital, I will ask that master to make me another one, which is exactly the same. You and I have one of these things, how can one survive alone? If so, we will It's also not reconciled."
"Then if I die in the future, you remember to bury my things with me." She smiled Yanyan.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Jian Yan became angry, "I said, I won't let you die. Zhao Hehuan, did you hear clearly? You are not allowed to talk about death or death in the future. I was so scared when I heard it, I— -I'm uncomfortable."
Zhao Wuyou smiled and said, "Okay, if you don't say it, then don't say it!" Could it be that if you don't say it, you don't have to die?
"Acacia." Jian Yan took a deep breath, "Trust me once, I'm serious. I have decided to take the autumn examination of this subject. If I can get an official position, I will always be by your side to share your worries and solutions. Row. I can't bear you to work so hard."
"Why are you so good-looking that you suddenly remembered that you were going to be an official?" Zhao Wuyou smiled, and looked at Jian Yan with inquiring eyes.
Jian Yan stood up, turned his back to Zhao Wuyou, and said, "I would like to cut my life with you, and I would like to live and die with you. Since the court is hard and intriguing, then I will bear it. I only hope that you can be safe and sound, can survive."
Zhao Wuyou turned his head away, let out a long breath, "Why bother? For me, there is really no need to do things you don't like to do. Jian Yan, everyone has their own destiny and responsibilities, you don't have to— —”
"It's worth it!" He turned back, "Acacia, everything is worth it, I believe that sooner or later, you will think it is worth it too. Acacia, since you have concerns and we can't be together, let's change the way. I can With you, whenever and wherever."
"I don't know martial arts, so I can't protect you personally, but if there is danger, I can risk my life for you. If you are bored, I will relieve your worries and drink tea and wine with you. If you are unwell, I can protect you day and night." Sleepless to take care of you."
"Hehuan, as long as you open your mouth, I can do anything for you. Even if it takes my life, I will not hesitate."
Zhao Wuyou looked at him, "I don't want anyone's life, I just want my own. Jian Yan, we can't."
"I know." Jian Yan smiled wryly, "I know what you care about, it doesn't matter, I can wait. I can wait until you think I'm worth your risk. Hehuan, I want to live and die with you."
"But I can't live and die with you, Jian Yan, you have a great future. The person who can accompany you to die will definitely not be me." She refused without leaving any room for it.
Jian Yan nodded, "But I just want to be with you forever. Even if I can't, I'm still willing to guard you. Even if I'm alone, I don't hesitate."
Zhao Wuyou opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, and tightened his grip on the quilt slightly.
"I'm going to change the basin of water." Jian Yan went out holding the basin.
"Jian Yan, turn around!" Zhao Wuyou said, staring at Jian Yan's back with slightly aggravated eyes.
Jian Yan lowered his head and smiled, and hugged the water basin in his arms tightly, "Are you looking back at you?" After speaking, he really turned his head back, "Hehuan, you are so pretty."
Zhao Wuyou smiled awkwardly, "I'm serious."
"I'm going to change the water!" Jian Yan walked out the door without looking back, Zhao Wuyou looked at the open door firmly, and took off the wet towel from his forehead.
Wen Gu came in from the outside, "This kid guarded you all night. If it wasn't for her, no one would have known if you fainted. He cared about you very much. You didn't see how anxious you were at the time, otherwise you would be moved. In fact, he and Compared with the one from Dongchang, he is much better. At least, he is a man."
Zhao Wuyou gave him a cold gouged look, "What is your identity now to say such a thing? Wen Gu, I left you for a deal with Mu Baili, so don't make a fuss about it, you have to meddle in everything. No one is allowed to interfere with my affairs. I will only say this for the last time. If I don’t remember it next time, I don’t mind changing the method so that you will remember it forever.”
At this moment, Zhao Wuyou turned his face and was ruthless.
Xu Shi touched Ni Lin, so she was really angry.When it comes to dealing with Jian Yan, Zhao Wuyou doesn't seem to have much patience, she doesn't want anyone to interfere with Jian Yan's affairs, let alone Jian Yan's own affairs.
It seems to be a bottom line, a bottom line that cannot be violated.
Wen Gu nodded, "I understand, I'm just worried about you."
"Worried about me?" Zhao Wuyou sneered, "How many people in this world are really worried about me? They are all mixed with other things. Wen Gu, don't play the emotional card with me, you will lose, you will lose very badly awful."
"Then I won't talk about it in the future." Wen Gu replied with a smile, "It was Hanyin who asked me to come and see you. She heard that you were sick and refused to lie down. I know you definitely don't want her to see you, so It took a lot of effort to let her lie down with peace of mind. Now that you are awake, I should go back and tell her."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out.
"I'm in a bad mood." Zhao Wuyou said, "It's actually none of your business."
Wen Gu sighed softly, "It's a happy day, and you have to live it if you're in a bad mood, so don't make yourself too uncomfortable. Life is long or short, don't wrong yourself."
Zhao Wuyou didn't speak, just lifted the quilt, took out his coat and put it on, and walked slowly into the yard.The room was very warm, but she felt suffocated, as if a big stone was stuck in her chest, and she couldn't breathe.
Take a look at the dark sky in Pinglin City, with no stars and no moon, the weather will probably not be too good tomorrow.
"My lord?" Suxi took the shawl and gently put it on Zhao Wuyou's body, "Your fever has not subsided, you should be careful."
"I'm just taking a breath!" Zhao Wuyou leaned against the pillar weakly.When looking at Suxi, Zhao Wuyou forced a smile, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Su Xi knew that she couldn't hide Zhao Wuyou, so she nodded her head and said in a low voice, "Something happened in the death cell. Our shadow guard hiding in the death cell reported that the people from Dongchang took Wang Shaojun away, and then made I got a double, and it will be sent to Caishikou to be executed at daybreak."
Zhao Wuyou rubbed his brows, "Dongchang wants to monopolize it? One Xuelan is not enough, even Wang Shaojun wants to monopolize it? Mu Baili's appetite is too big."
"Wang Shaojun refuses to reveal the formula of Living Human Gu, even if it falls into Dongchang's hands, he probably wouldn't say it!" Suxi said.
Zhao Wuyou smiled coldly, "Xuelan is in Dongchang now, do you think Wang Shaojun will tell her the secret of the Living Human Gu?"
Su Xi was shocked, "So, Dongchang is bound to win the living Gu."
"Whether it is inevitable or not, Mu Baili is tantamount to starting a war against me." Zhao Wuyou coughed lightly, "That's fine, everyone should be in the same boat, and from now on, let's each rely on our own abilities!"
"Then this matter—" Su Xi pursed her lips, "Aren't we going to do something about it?"
"Do you know where Wang Shaojun went?" Zhao Wuyou asked.
Suxi shook her head, "The shadow guards can't find out, and the affairs of the East Factory are always tight."
"Then it's over? Who are you going to show when you tear up your face in Pinglin City?" Zhao Wuyou said, "You have no evidence, and neither do I. Wang Shaojun is missing, and no one can find him. Forgive me As soon as I file a complaint with the emperor, the emperor will feel that I am provoking trouble. Keep an eye on it. We can only continue to investigate unless there is a living dead one day. Otherwise, Wang Shaojun's matter can only end here .”
Hearing this, Suxi knew that this matter was already very difficult, and Shang Shufu was powerless to do anything about it.
This Wang Shaojun fell into Dongchang's hands so easily and became their private property.It is almost impossible to get Wang Shaojun out of Dongchang's mouth in the future.
Zhao Wuyou coughed twice, leaned there wearily, "Let me be quiet for a while."
Su Xi pursed her lips, "My lord, don't be greedy for cold, if you feel cold, go back to the house!"
"I know!" Zhao Wuyou closed his eyes.
With a sigh, Su Xi turned and left.
Zhao Wuyou closed his eyes and rested his mind, the wind made his cheeks icy cold, and the heat on his forehead seemed to have dropped a lot.Thinking about the past in a daze, everyone went through it in their minds.Then all the memories stay on the edge of the cliff that night, the man who fell madly with him.
Suddenly a hand was pressed to her forehead, and then a familiar breath sprayed on her face.
Zhao Wuyou quickly opened his eyes, and Jian Yan's worried eyes met his eyes.Her expression was startled, and her body froze in horror.When she came back to her senses in an instant, she smiled awkwardly and reluctantly, "It's you?"
"It's not me, could it be that man-eating guy?" Jian Yan sighed softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, I won't let him approach you again."
Hearing this, Zhao Wuyou frowned slightly, "What nonsense are you talking about? I am an imperial envoy with him, but it's just the emperor's order." She wanted to get up, but she was suddenly picked up by Jian Yan, which shocked Zhao Wuyou. Wuyou quickly grabbed his skirt, "Jian Yan, are you crazy? Put it down!"
Jian Yan took a deep breath, and carried her back to the house without saying a word, "It's so cold outside, you still have a fever, go back and rest!"
"I don't need anyone to talk about my affairs, Jian Yan, put me down!" Zhao Wuyou seemed angry.
"Has he ever hugged you like this?" Jian Yan gently placed her on the bed.
Zhao Wuyou was stunned, "If you dare to talk nonsense—if you talk nonsense again, I will ignore you." After saying that, she turned her back to him, "Get out!"
Jian Yan's complexion was a bit ugly, especially just now, the sudden joy in her eyes, and the sudden dimness in her eyes when she saw him.
The fists in the sleeves were clenched tightly, the knuckles were slightly white, and Jian Yan lowered his eyes, "I'm sorry, I lost my temper. I'm just worried that if I'm not by your side these days, you, a weak woman, will be bullied by him. The world is the darkest and coldest They are rampant in the palace, killing countless people, and tricking people endlessly. He Huan, I'm afraid you will fall into his trap and be deceived by him."
"What are you lying to?" Zhao Wuyou asked, still turning his back to him, "Also, in the eyes of the world, I have never been a weak woman. The sick one is the minister of the Ministry of Rites, the son of the prime minister, and the emperor's favorite minister. Let me ask. , Where am I weak? Just with this body, do you think I'm so vulnerable? Jian Yan, do you still trust me? If you trust me, take back your words today and put your heart in your stomach. "
"Mu Baili lied to gods and ghosts, but he couldn't fool me. If I was really deceived in the future, then I must have deceived myself. I have nothing to do with anyone, and I have nothing to do with anyone. Do you hear me clearly?"
Jian Yan nodded, "I, I'm just worried about you."
"Don't do things that hurt me in the name of worrying about me." Zhao Wuyou sat up, "Jian Yan, I'm not a three-year-old child, I don't need to be coaxed, I have my own judgment. Don't Question my decision, that is my choice. You are the only friend I have in this life, even if you are worried, you should support me."
"My position, my identity and status do not allow me to make the slightest mistake. I am walking on thin ice in the court, and I dare not slack off. Jian Yan, I am tired. If you can't understand me at this moment, support me , I think I—"
Jian Yan looked guilty, "I'm sorry Hehuan, I didn't mean that. I trust you, but I think Mu Baili always looks at you strangely, and I feel a little uncomfortable."
"Does he look at me strangely?" Zhao Wuyou sneered, "He just wants to tear me apart! Don't forget, he can eat people."
Hearing this, Jian Yan trembled, and looked at Zhao Wuyou with a little fear in his eyes, "Hehuan?"
"I'll be careful myself." Zhao Wuyou narrowed his eyes, with a tired expression on his face, "It's late at night, you go back!"
"But your body—" Jian Yan looked at her worriedly.
"I've survived without you. Is it possible that I won't live in the future?" She smiled coldly.
Jian Yan nodded, "If you have something to do, you can call me, I'm next door."
Zhao Wuyou nodded and stopped looking at him.
In the silent room, only Zhao Wuyou was left alone to wait for dawn.Since Dongchang decided to keep Wang Shaojun, Wang Shaojun should be executed tomorrow.She will not touch these matters, lest Mu Baili will involve her in the funeral in the future.
It was her business to force Wang Weiyong to death, and it was Mu Baili's business to behead Wang Shaojun.
She began to think about what to say when she returned to the capital.Hanyin lived not far away, and Hanyin was pregnant with a child, so how would he arrange it when he returned to the Shangshu Mansion.My father is on a mission, and it stands to reason that he should be back in two months.Before her father came back, she had to take full control of the situation in the capital, lest the situation suddenly change and catch her father by surprise.
It hurts to think too much, but in the future, Mu Baili will never come to serve her again.
Mu Baili also felt a headache, Xue Lan's appearance disrupted his plan.From now on, I'm afraid there will be something in Zhao Wuyou's hands.Who is Zhao Wuyou?As cunning as a fox reincarnated, she could sniff out the reason for the slightest disturbance.That's why he has to bear the blame for Wang Shaojun's matter alone.
This really knocked his teeth out and swallowed his stomach. If something happens in the future, it will be the full responsibility of Dongchang.
Xue Lan glanced at Mu Baili who was standing in the yard, he was as tall as jade, standing there motionless.He didn't know what he was thinking, and stood with his hands behind his back, just looking at the dark distance.
Taking a deep breath, Xue Lan turned her head to look at Lu Guoan beside her, "Are you all ready?"
Lu Guoan nodded, "The governor ordered everything to be done according to Miss Lan's wishes."
"Okay!" Xue Lan turned and walked towards the cellar.
Jian Yan was locked up here earlier, but now it is freed to lock up Wang Shaojun.
In the dark world, only one candle is lit.When the door was opened, the wind blew in and the candles flickered, making the cellar even darker.Wang Shaojun heard the sound of footsteps coming in, but he didn't have any strength in his body, so he could only support himself on the edge of the bed, staring at the scene at the door.
It was Xue Lan who came, followed by people from Dongchang.
A group of people came in with something. It was a stove, and there seemed to be something in the stove.
"Xuelan!" Wang Shaojun was naturally ecstatic to see the person who was thinking about it day and night, "Xuelan!"
"From now on, you won't be called Wang Shaojun." Xue Lan said coldly, "From now on, you will be my slave, and you can only follow me and do things according to my orders. Wang Shaojun, this is your last Opportunity."
Wang Shaojun looked at her fixedly, the light in his eyes trembled.
Not long after, a mournful howl came from the cellar, piercing the silence of the night and making people feel terrified.Everyone in the posthouse heard it, but no one dared to ask, no one dared to explore, what kind of sound it was.
After the screams, there was still a dead silence.
The weather on the second day was really not very good, it was cloudy and windy, even God felt it was unfair.
"Having harmed so many people, I can still escape." Suxi glanced at the gray sky, "It's hard to forgive."
"I have also killed a lot of people, what do you think I should do? There is reincarnation in this world, and it's only a matter of time! You and I are the same." Zhao Wuyou smiled coldly and stepped up. After getting into the carriage, Jian Yan was already waiting in the carriage.
After the matter in Yunhua Prefecture is over, it's time to return to Beijing and return to order.
After tossing and tossing here for so long, Zhao Wuyou was also tired.She leaned against the wall of the car, covered with a thin blanket, closed her eyes and fell asleep peacefully.Jian Yan was by the side, not saying a word, just looking at her quietly, just looking at her like this is also very good.
Mu Baili's carriage was walking ahead, he looked back at the empty seat beside him, stretched out his hand to touch the empty seat, lowered his head and smiled helplessly.
The imperial guards protected the convoy and headed towards the capital.
Knowing that Zhao Wuyou would return to the capital in a few days, Yunzheng was delighted to clean up the entire Shangshu Mansion inside and out, especially the Tingfeng Tower.When Zhao Wuyou left, the leaves of the pear tree were still sparse, but now it's green and full of vitality.
Xi Mo smiled and said, "How can you be as happy as Chinese New Year?"
Yunzheng gave him a blank look, "Isn't it happier than New Year's Eve? The young master has been away for more than half a month, and the whole Shangshu Mansion is deserted. Now that he is finally back, how can he be unhappy." After thinking for a while, he said, "Notify Fu Sheng Yet?"
"After the young master left, he stayed behind closed doors, saying that he was concentrating on studying the formation, and he could explain something when the young master came back." Xi Mo Ning raised his eyebrows, "Then let me say something, so that when the young master comes back, he will be rude and offend you." The young master is not happy."
"Okay!" Yunzheng nodded, her eyes hurt slightly, "Wait, or——I'll go!"
Xi Mo frowned, nodded after thinking about it, "It's fine."
Yunzheng took a deep breath, "You continue to tidy up, I'll go find Fusheng." After saying that, she walked away.
"Why so weird?" Xi Mo muttered.
(End of this chapter)
Xue Lan's face was distorted, and her complexion was as pale as paper.Sitting weakly on the stool, leaning weakly on the table, there is no trace of emotion in a pair of empty eyes.Suddenly, she seemed to see the snow in northern Xinjiang.
A flurry of snow fell into the fire that night.
Pain and weakness are accompanied by the loss of life.
Suddenly, she came back to her senses, straightened her expression, and stumbled towards the door.She couldn't die, how could she just die like this when she just found the person she was looking for?She is not reconciled, how can she be reconciled.
Lu Guoan has already made arrangements for Xue Lan, so she is special in the eyes of everyone in Dongchang.No one dared to stop her, she was free to go wherever she wanted.
At this moment, she had to go to the magistrate's yamen. If Wang Shaojun really died, then she would die too.
So—no matter what, she can't let Wang Shaojun have an accident, otherwise...
But how should she talk to Mu Baili?Wang Shaojun was in death row, no matter how much the people in Dongchang feared her, they would not dare to let her take Wang Shaojun away.Fortunately, when she went, Mu Baili was still there.
Just as Mu Baili was about to get on the carriage, Xue Lan got off the horse.
She said she turned over and got off the horse, but in fact she fell off the horse's back. She fell powerlessly on the ground, clutching her painful heart tightly.With a gray face, without a trace of blood, she lay there for a long time without getting up.
Mu Baili frowned, Lu Guoan understood, and quickly stepped forward to help Xue Lan, "Miss Lan?"
Xue Lan opened her eyes and looked at him, Mu Baili walked up to her unhurriedly, bent down and squatted down, "What's going on?"
"I, I have something to tell you, you—" She looked around, obviously this was not the place to talk.
Mu Baili closed his eyes, then took her from Lu Guoan's hand, and carried Xue Lan inside.In the hall, he gently placed Xue Lan on the stool and let her sit against the table, "You don't seem to be injured, what's going on?"
"I want to see Wang Shaojun." Xue Lan was dying, as if she would die at any moment.
Lu Guoan was puzzled, "Could it be that Wang Shaojun poisoned Miss Lan?"
Hearing this, Mu Baili immediately stepped forward and sat beside Xue Lan, and stretched out his hand to pinch her wrist.Although he doesn't know how to see a doctor, he can still find out if someone who practices martial arts has been poisoned.Looking at the pulse, it doesn't seem like poisoning.
If she looks poisoned on the outside but there is no sign of poisoning on the pulse, it can show that she is most likely planted with a Gu by Wang Shaojun.Gu is not regarded as poison, because Gu and human are fused together, it is another invisible existence.
Integrate into flesh and blood, coexist with life.
Not like poison but better than poison, this is the most poisonous.
Thinking of this, Mu Baili stared at Xuelan with gloomy eyes, "Did Wang Shaojun put a poison on you?" He knew a little about the poison, so even if Xuelan didn't make a sound, he knew the general idea .
Lu Guoan's expression froze, "Planting a Gu? What should I do? I will be tortured immediately in a humble position, and Wang Shaojun must be made to spit out the antidote."
Mu Baili raised his hand, "What kind of Gu?"
Xue Lan bit her thin lips tightly, her expression slightly aggravated, "Life and death Gu."
"What is Life and Death Gu?" Lu Guoan was puzzled.
But seeing Mu Baili stand up slowly, a ruthless look flashed across his phoenix eyes.He just looked at Xue Lan, watching intently.Until Xue Lan lowered her head, her peerless face dimmed all expressions.
"Everything in this world has a definite number. Xue Lan, I give you a life, so you can do it yourself." After saying that, Mu Baili turned around with a flick of his sleeves.
"Brother?" she called out hoarsely.
Mu Baili paused, "Follow!"
Lu Guoan helped Xue Lan and took Xue Lan to the death row.Wang Shaojun on the wooden frame was already dying, blood filled the air, covering his sight.He tried hard to open his eyes, but he still couldn't see everything in front of him clearly.
He was really hurt too badly, he was the magistrate's son, he had never suffered such a pain, so he couldn't bear it.
Mu Baili walked out without saying a word, leaving Xue Lan in the torture chamber.
His own governor didn't speak, and Lu Guoan naturally couldn't speak up, so he could only follow Mu Baili out of the room.
Seeing that the gate of the punishment room was closed, Xue Lan tightly clutched her aching heart, and stepped forward slowly to check if Wang Shaojun was still alive, "Is he still alive?" She reached out to feel Wang Shaojun's neck artery, and it was okay, he could still jump.
Immediately, he drew his sword and broke Wang Shaojun's body-binding rope.
With a muffled sound, Wang Shaojun slipped from the wooden frame and fell to the ground.He heard the voice carefully just now, it was Xue Lan's.It was the woman he loved the most in this life, it was Xue Lan.
"Give me the antidote." Xuelan grabbed Wang Shaojun's skirt, her face pale as paper, "Since you said you love me, why did you drag me to die with you? Wang Shaojun, you hypocrite!"
Through the blood on his eyelashes, Wang Shaojun finally saw that the woman in front of him was undoubtedly Xuelan.He was delighted, that bloody face finally burst into a ferocious smile, which was enough to make people tremble with fear.
"Xue Lan." He was short of breath, and grabbed her hand firmly, "I've finally been waiting for you. Xue Lan, don't leave me."
"Where's the antidote for the life-death Gu?" Xue Lan felt that she was almost the same as Wang Shaojun, and she could only breathe a sigh of relief, "I don't want to die, if you give me the antidote, it's my begging. Wang Shaojun, you heard No?"
"Xue Lan!" Wang Shaojun called her name in a low voice. He thought that the only person in his life who wanted to be gentle with her was her, "Didn't I tell you? Once the life and death Gu is planted on the body, you and I are the antidote for each other, there is no other way. The life and death Gu will never stop dying."
Xue Lan closed her eyes heavily, "What will you do to let me go? I've said it countless times, I don't love you, not at all. I've already found him, so...Wang Shaojun, you will destroy me. "
"I just want to be with you." Wang Shaojun's voice was hoarse.
She found her fiancé?
So?
So her heart was settled, and he became a lonely ghost?Is he no longer possible?But they are already husband and wife?
He said, "Xue Lan, I really like you. We have married and are already husband and wife. Don't abandon me. I can give you everything, including my life."
But she doesn't care about his life, what she wants is Ran Heng, not Wang Shaojun.
"Then, I can only settle for the next best thing." Xue Lan said in a low voice.
Wang Shaojun's heart trembled, he didn't know what her so-called "best second best" was, but he knew that she would never leave him again from now on, so—no matter how difficult it was, they could be together.
----------
When Zhao Wuyou went back, Jian Yan had already washed and washed off the dust in the cellar.He is still one of the best handsome young men in the capital, a playboy, and the admiration object of many women.
He stood in the sun and looked at her, smiling extremely warmly.The way he looked at her was always warm, and the corners of his lips were always smiling.Suxi knew that Jian Yan liked Zhao Wuyou, so she quietly withdrew.
Zhao Wuyou glanced at Su Xi, who was knowledgeable and interesting, and sighed helplessly.
Even if Lang is affectionate, sister may not be interested.Even if Lang has a lover and concubine, so what if the world is intolerable?Walking slowly to Jian Yan, Zhao Wuyou's face turned pale, and he slightly raised his lips and smiled, "Why don't you take a good rest?"
"I should ask you this." Jian Yan gathered the shawl for her, "It's summer now, but you are not in good health, and you are most afraid of the cold, why don't you know how to cherish yourself?" After finishing speaking, he Holding her hand, "Your hand is still so cold."
Zhao Wuyou hastily withdrew his hand, looked around with a slightly embarrassed expression, but fortunately there was no one around.Feeling relieved, Zhao Wuyou let out a long breath, "This is not Shangshufu, not my Tingfeng Building, you should restrain yourself!"
Then he said, "This post house is full of Dongchang's eyeliner, don't let Mu Baili get some tricks in his hands, it will be hard for you and me."
Jian Yan nodded, "I didn't take your situation into consideration."
Zhao Wuyou sighed lightly, "I'll feel better when I get back to the capital." She coughed lightly twice, "I'm tired, so go back to my room and rest, don't wander around. Although the plague in the city has subsided, But the minds of the common people have not completely calmed down, so it is inevitable that they will be a little chaotic."
"I know, just don't worry, I won't make trouble with you." Jian Yan smiled, "Go to sleep, I will watch outside the door, just like before, you can sleep in peace."
She nodded and smiled, "Okay!"
With him, it is naturally the best.
When we return to the capital, everything will return to the original state.Everything will return to the state of a pool of stagnant water.
Zhao Wuyou fell asleep drowsily, this time he slept very deeply, when he woke up, his forehead felt chilly.She opened her eyes, and Jian Yan's worried eyes met her eyes.With a forced smile on his lips, Zhao Wuyou said in a low voice, "Why did you come in?"
Jian Yan twisted the wet towel and changed the towel on her forehead, "If I hadn't come in, you don't know how long you would faint. You don't even know you have a fever, do you know how dangerous it is?"
"I have a fever again?" Zhao Wuyou sighed softly, "This body is really getting more and more useless."
These days, she has been going back and forth for a long time, and if she continues like this, she will probably die young.
Jian Yan's eyes darkened slightly, "Don't talk nonsense, your body will get better. As long as I am here, I will guard you, and I will guard you for the rest of my life. Hehuan, don't be afraid, no matter what the price is, I will heal you you."
"My father has searched all over the world for famous doctors, and even the royal doctor in the palace can't help. What can you, a scholar, do?" Zhao Wuyou tried his best to support himself, and rested on the cushion.In the candlelight, her complexion glowed with distressing red and white.
The way she looked at him showed a trace of ailment and complexity, "Jian Yan, I'm sorry."
Jian Yan was taken aback, "Why do you say sorry?"
She lowered her head and smiled, "I lost that jade pendant."
"What jade pendant?" Jian Yan was puzzled.
"Pear Blossom Jade Pendant." Zhao Wuyou pursed his lips, "I took it back from Mu Baili, but not long ago, I accidentally lost it and couldn't get it back."
Jian Yan closed his eyes and held her cold hand in silence.
After a long time, he smiled and said, "It's okay, when I return to the capital, I will ask that master to make me another one, which is exactly the same. You and I have one of these things, how can one survive alone? If so, we will It's also not reconciled."
"Then if I die in the future, you remember to bury my things with me." She smiled Yanyan.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Jian Yan became angry, "I said, I won't let you die. Zhao Hehuan, did you hear clearly? You are not allowed to talk about death or death in the future. I was so scared when I heard it, I— -I'm uncomfortable."
Zhao Wuyou smiled and said, "Okay, if you don't say it, then don't say it!" Could it be that if you don't say it, you don't have to die?
"Acacia." Jian Yan took a deep breath, "Trust me once, I'm serious. I have decided to take the autumn examination of this subject. If I can get an official position, I will always be by your side to share your worries and solutions. Row. I can't bear you to work so hard."
"Why are you so good-looking that you suddenly remembered that you were going to be an official?" Zhao Wuyou smiled, and looked at Jian Yan with inquiring eyes.
Jian Yan stood up, turned his back to Zhao Wuyou, and said, "I would like to cut my life with you, and I would like to live and die with you. Since the court is hard and intriguing, then I will bear it. I only hope that you can be safe and sound, can survive."
Zhao Wuyou turned his head away, let out a long breath, "Why bother? For me, there is really no need to do things you don't like to do. Jian Yan, everyone has their own destiny and responsibilities, you don't have to— —”
"It's worth it!" He turned back, "Acacia, everything is worth it, I believe that sooner or later, you will think it is worth it too. Acacia, since you have concerns and we can't be together, let's change the way. I can With you, whenever and wherever."
"I don't know martial arts, so I can't protect you personally, but if there is danger, I can risk my life for you. If you are bored, I will relieve your worries and drink tea and wine with you. If you are unwell, I can protect you day and night." Sleepless to take care of you."
"Hehuan, as long as you open your mouth, I can do anything for you. Even if it takes my life, I will not hesitate."
Zhao Wuyou looked at him, "I don't want anyone's life, I just want my own. Jian Yan, we can't."
"I know." Jian Yan smiled wryly, "I know what you care about, it doesn't matter, I can wait. I can wait until you think I'm worth your risk. Hehuan, I want to live and die with you."
"But I can't live and die with you, Jian Yan, you have a great future. The person who can accompany you to die will definitely not be me." She refused without leaving any room for it.
Jian Yan nodded, "But I just want to be with you forever. Even if I can't, I'm still willing to guard you. Even if I'm alone, I don't hesitate."
Zhao Wuyou opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, and tightened his grip on the quilt slightly.
"I'm going to change the basin of water." Jian Yan went out holding the basin.
"Jian Yan, turn around!" Zhao Wuyou said, staring at Jian Yan's back with slightly aggravated eyes.
Jian Yan lowered his head and smiled, and hugged the water basin in his arms tightly, "Are you looking back at you?" After speaking, he really turned his head back, "Hehuan, you are so pretty."
Zhao Wuyou smiled awkwardly, "I'm serious."
"I'm going to change the water!" Jian Yan walked out the door without looking back, Zhao Wuyou looked at the open door firmly, and took off the wet towel from his forehead.
Wen Gu came in from the outside, "This kid guarded you all night. If it wasn't for her, no one would have known if you fainted. He cared about you very much. You didn't see how anxious you were at the time, otherwise you would be moved. In fact, he and Compared with the one from Dongchang, he is much better. At least, he is a man."
Zhao Wuyou gave him a cold gouged look, "What is your identity now to say such a thing? Wen Gu, I left you for a deal with Mu Baili, so don't make a fuss about it, you have to meddle in everything. No one is allowed to interfere with my affairs. I will only say this for the last time. If I don’t remember it next time, I don’t mind changing the method so that you will remember it forever.”
At this moment, Zhao Wuyou turned his face and was ruthless.
Xu Shi touched Ni Lin, so she was really angry.When it comes to dealing with Jian Yan, Zhao Wuyou doesn't seem to have much patience, she doesn't want anyone to interfere with Jian Yan's affairs, let alone Jian Yan's own affairs.
It seems to be a bottom line, a bottom line that cannot be violated.
Wen Gu nodded, "I understand, I'm just worried about you."
"Worried about me?" Zhao Wuyou sneered, "How many people in this world are really worried about me? They are all mixed with other things. Wen Gu, don't play the emotional card with me, you will lose, you will lose very badly awful."
"Then I won't talk about it in the future." Wen Gu replied with a smile, "It was Hanyin who asked me to come and see you. She heard that you were sick and refused to lie down. I know you definitely don't want her to see you, so It took a lot of effort to let her lie down with peace of mind. Now that you are awake, I should go back and tell her."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out.
"I'm in a bad mood." Zhao Wuyou said, "It's actually none of your business."
Wen Gu sighed softly, "It's a happy day, and you have to live it if you're in a bad mood, so don't make yourself too uncomfortable. Life is long or short, don't wrong yourself."
Zhao Wuyou didn't speak, just lifted the quilt, took out his coat and put it on, and walked slowly into the yard.The room was very warm, but she felt suffocated, as if a big stone was stuck in her chest, and she couldn't breathe.
Take a look at the dark sky in Pinglin City, with no stars and no moon, the weather will probably not be too good tomorrow.
"My lord?" Suxi took the shawl and gently put it on Zhao Wuyou's body, "Your fever has not subsided, you should be careful."
"I'm just taking a breath!" Zhao Wuyou leaned against the pillar weakly.When looking at Suxi, Zhao Wuyou forced a smile, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Su Xi knew that she couldn't hide Zhao Wuyou, so she nodded her head and said in a low voice, "Something happened in the death cell. Our shadow guard hiding in the death cell reported that the people from Dongchang took Wang Shaojun away, and then made I got a double, and it will be sent to Caishikou to be executed at daybreak."
Zhao Wuyou rubbed his brows, "Dongchang wants to monopolize it? One Xuelan is not enough, even Wang Shaojun wants to monopolize it? Mu Baili's appetite is too big."
"Wang Shaojun refuses to reveal the formula of Living Human Gu, even if it falls into Dongchang's hands, he probably wouldn't say it!" Suxi said.
Zhao Wuyou smiled coldly, "Xuelan is in Dongchang now, do you think Wang Shaojun will tell her the secret of the Living Human Gu?"
Su Xi was shocked, "So, Dongchang is bound to win the living Gu."
"Whether it is inevitable or not, Mu Baili is tantamount to starting a war against me." Zhao Wuyou coughed lightly, "That's fine, everyone should be in the same boat, and from now on, let's each rely on our own abilities!"
"Then this matter—" Su Xi pursed her lips, "Aren't we going to do something about it?"
"Do you know where Wang Shaojun went?" Zhao Wuyou asked.
Suxi shook her head, "The shadow guards can't find out, and the affairs of the East Factory are always tight."
"Then it's over? Who are you going to show when you tear up your face in Pinglin City?" Zhao Wuyou said, "You have no evidence, and neither do I. Wang Shaojun is missing, and no one can find him. Forgive me As soon as I file a complaint with the emperor, the emperor will feel that I am provoking trouble. Keep an eye on it. We can only continue to investigate unless there is a living dead one day. Otherwise, Wang Shaojun's matter can only end here .”
Hearing this, Suxi knew that this matter was already very difficult, and Shang Shufu was powerless to do anything about it.
This Wang Shaojun fell into Dongchang's hands so easily and became their private property.It is almost impossible to get Wang Shaojun out of Dongchang's mouth in the future.
Zhao Wuyou coughed twice, leaned there wearily, "Let me be quiet for a while."
Su Xi pursed her lips, "My lord, don't be greedy for cold, if you feel cold, go back to the house!"
"I know!" Zhao Wuyou closed his eyes.
With a sigh, Su Xi turned and left.
Zhao Wuyou closed his eyes and rested his mind, the wind made his cheeks icy cold, and the heat on his forehead seemed to have dropped a lot.Thinking about the past in a daze, everyone went through it in their minds.Then all the memories stay on the edge of the cliff that night, the man who fell madly with him.
Suddenly a hand was pressed to her forehead, and then a familiar breath sprayed on her face.
Zhao Wuyou quickly opened his eyes, and Jian Yan's worried eyes met his eyes.Her expression was startled, and her body froze in horror.When she came back to her senses in an instant, she smiled awkwardly and reluctantly, "It's you?"
"It's not me, could it be that man-eating guy?" Jian Yan sighed softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, I won't let him approach you again."
Hearing this, Zhao Wuyou frowned slightly, "What nonsense are you talking about? I am an imperial envoy with him, but it's just the emperor's order." She wanted to get up, but she was suddenly picked up by Jian Yan, which shocked Zhao Wuyou. Wuyou quickly grabbed his skirt, "Jian Yan, are you crazy? Put it down!"
Jian Yan took a deep breath, and carried her back to the house without saying a word, "It's so cold outside, you still have a fever, go back and rest!"
"I don't need anyone to talk about my affairs, Jian Yan, put me down!" Zhao Wuyou seemed angry.
"Has he ever hugged you like this?" Jian Yan gently placed her on the bed.
Zhao Wuyou was stunned, "If you dare to talk nonsense—if you talk nonsense again, I will ignore you." After saying that, she turned her back to him, "Get out!"
Jian Yan's complexion was a bit ugly, especially just now, the sudden joy in her eyes, and the sudden dimness in her eyes when she saw him.
The fists in the sleeves were clenched tightly, the knuckles were slightly white, and Jian Yan lowered his eyes, "I'm sorry, I lost my temper. I'm just worried that if I'm not by your side these days, you, a weak woman, will be bullied by him. The world is the darkest and coldest They are rampant in the palace, killing countless people, and tricking people endlessly. He Huan, I'm afraid you will fall into his trap and be deceived by him."
"What are you lying to?" Zhao Wuyou asked, still turning his back to him, "Also, in the eyes of the world, I have never been a weak woman. The sick one is the minister of the Ministry of Rites, the son of the prime minister, and the emperor's favorite minister. Let me ask. , Where am I weak? Just with this body, do you think I'm so vulnerable? Jian Yan, do you still trust me? If you trust me, take back your words today and put your heart in your stomach. "
"Mu Baili lied to gods and ghosts, but he couldn't fool me. If I was really deceived in the future, then I must have deceived myself. I have nothing to do with anyone, and I have nothing to do with anyone. Do you hear me clearly?"
Jian Yan nodded, "I, I'm just worried about you."
"Don't do things that hurt me in the name of worrying about me." Zhao Wuyou sat up, "Jian Yan, I'm not a three-year-old child, I don't need to be coaxed, I have my own judgment. Don't Question my decision, that is my choice. You are the only friend I have in this life, even if you are worried, you should support me."
"My position, my identity and status do not allow me to make the slightest mistake. I am walking on thin ice in the court, and I dare not slack off. Jian Yan, I am tired. If you can't understand me at this moment, support me , I think I—"
Jian Yan looked guilty, "I'm sorry Hehuan, I didn't mean that. I trust you, but I think Mu Baili always looks at you strangely, and I feel a little uncomfortable."
"Does he look at me strangely?" Zhao Wuyou sneered, "He just wants to tear me apart! Don't forget, he can eat people."
Hearing this, Jian Yan trembled, and looked at Zhao Wuyou with a little fear in his eyes, "Hehuan?"
"I'll be careful myself." Zhao Wuyou narrowed his eyes, with a tired expression on his face, "It's late at night, you go back!"
"But your body—" Jian Yan looked at her worriedly.
"I've survived without you. Is it possible that I won't live in the future?" She smiled coldly.
Jian Yan nodded, "If you have something to do, you can call me, I'm next door."
Zhao Wuyou nodded and stopped looking at him.
In the silent room, only Zhao Wuyou was left alone to wait for dawn.Since Dongchang decided to keep Wang Shaojun, Wang Shaojun should be executed tomorrow.She will not touch these matters, lest Mu Baili will involve her in the funeral in the future.
It was her business to force Wang Weiyong to death, and it was Mu Baili's business to behead Wang Shaojun.
She began to think about what to say when she returned to the capital.Hanyin lived not far away, and Hanyin was pregnant with a child, so how would he arrange it when he returned to the Shangshu Mansion.My father is on a mission, and it stands to reason that he should be back in two months.Before her father came back, she had to take full control of the situation in the capital, lest the situation suddenly change and catch her father by surprise.
It hurts to think too much, but in the future, Mu Baili will never come to serve her again.
Mu Baili also felt a headache, Xue Lan's appearance disrupted his plan.From now on, I'm afraid there will be something in Zhao Wuyou's hands.Who is Zhao Wuyou?As cunning as a fox reincarnated, she could sniff out the reason for the slightest disturbance.That's why he has to bear the blame for Wang Shaojun's matter alone.
This really knocked his teeth out and swallowed his stomach. If something happens in the future, it will be the full responsibility of Dongchang.
Xue Lan glanced at Mu Baili who was standing in the yard, he was as tall as jade, standing there motionless.He didn't know what he was thinking, and stood with his hands behind his back, just looking at the dark distance.
Taking a deep breath, Xue Lan turned her head to look at Lu Guoan beside her, "Are you all ready?"
Lu Guoan nodded, "The governor ordered everything to be done according to Miss Lan's wishes."
"Okay!" Xue Lan turned and walked towards the cellar.
Jian Yan was locked up here earlier, but now it is freed to lock up Wang Shaojun.
In the dark world, only one candle is lit.When the door was opened, the wind blew in and the candles flickered, making the cellar even darker.Wang Shaojun heard the sound of footsteps coming in, but he didn't have any strength in his body, so he could only support himself on the edge of the bed, staring at the scene at the door.
It was Xue Lan who came, followed by people from Dongchang.
A group of people came in with something. It was a stove, and there seemed to be something in the stove.
"Xuelan!" Wang Shaojun was naturally ecstatic to see the person who was thinking about it day and night, "Xuelan!"
"From now on, you won't be called Wang Shaojun." Xue Lan said coldly, "From now on, you will be my slave, and you can only follow me and do things according to my orders. Wang Shaojun, this is your last Opportunity."
Wang Shaojun looked at her fixedly, the light in his eyes trembled.
Not long after, a mournful howl came from the cellar, piercing the silence of the night and making people feel terrified.Everyone in the posthouse heard it, but no one dared to ask, no one dared to explore, what kind of sound it was.
After the screams, there was still a dead silence.
The weather on the second day was really not very good, it was cloudy and windy, even God felt it was unfair.
"Having harmed so many people, I can still escape." Suxi glanced at the gray sky, "It's hard to forgive."
"I have also killed a lot of people, what do you think I should do? There is reincarnation in this world, and it's only a matter of time! You and I are the same." Zhao Wuyou smiled coldly and stepped up. After getting into the carriage, Jian Yan was already waiting in the carriage.
After the matter in Yunhua Prefecture is over, it's time to return to Beijing and return to order.
After tossing and tossing here for so long, Zhao Wuyou was also tired.She leaned against the wall of the car, covered with a thin blanket, closed her eyes and fell asleep peacefully.Jian Yan was by the side, not saying a word, just looking at her quietly, just looking at her like this is also very good.
Mu Baili's carriage was walking ahead, he looked back at the empty seat beside him, stretched out his hand to touch the empty seat, lowered his head and smiled helplessly.
The imperial guards protected the convoy and headed towards the capital.
Knowing that Zhao Wuyou would return to the capital in a few days, Yunzheng was delighted to clean up the entire Shangshu Mansion inside and out, especially the Tingfeng Tower.When Zhao Wuyou left, the leaves of the pear tree were still sparse, but now it's green and full of vitality.
Xi Mo smiled and said, "How can you be as happy as Chinese New Year?"
Yunzheng gave him a blank look, "Isn't it happier than New Year's Eve? The young master has been away for more than half a month, and the whole Shangshu Mansion is deserted. Now that he is finally back, how can he be unhappy." After thinking for a while, he said, "Notify Fu Sheng Yet?"
"After the young master left, he stayed behind closed doors, saying that he was concentrating on studying the formation, and he could explain something when the young master came back." Xi Mo Ning raised his eyebrows, "Then let me say something, so that when the young master comes back, he will be rude and offend you." The young master is not happy."
"Okay!" Yunzheng nodded, her eyes hurt slightly, "Wait, or——I'll go!"
Xi Mo frowned, nodded after thinking about it, "It's fine."
Yunzheng took a deep breath, "You continue to tidy up, I'll go find Fusheng." After saying that, she walked away.
"Why so weird?" Xi Mo muttered.
