Chapter 227

My head was dizzy, I opened my eyes slightly, I reached out and rubbed my head, suddenly I remembered that when I lost consciousness, someone suddenly covered my mouth and nose.

Immediately, I suddenly opened my eyes wide, the surrounding area looked pitch-black, and there was only one light on the table.

"Whoa..."

Suddenly I heard the sound of chains, and soon the door was opened.

A woman suddenly walked in front of me, she was holding a basket in her hand, she also had a cold face when she saw me.

"time to eat!"

After that, she brought out several dishes from the basket, as well as a bowl of rice.

This dish is indeed delicious and rich, but what I don't understand is where I am now!
"This is where?"

I looked at the woman in front of me, and hurriedly asked, but I didn't want the woman to look at me and say coldly: "Stop talking nonsense, it would be nice to have something to eat when you come here!"

Hearing this, I looked at her and said: "Who are you guys? Where did you imprison me? You dare to kidnap people from the palace. It seems that you really have some background."

Seeing what I said, the woman smiled coldly.

"Heh... Why is the girl the toughest? It's better to fill your stomach and wait for the news by yourself, or you will starve to death before you go out!"

The woman turned her head away after she finished speaking and left. Hearing the sound of the chains "cracking", I knew in my heart that I must be locked in a secret room now, but where is this place?

Just now I saw that woman's dress, it should not be the dress of a court lady, it's hard to be...

I was surprised in my heart, could it be that I am locked up outside the palace now?
I walked to the table, reached out and took out a silver needle from my sleeve, and tested the food again, after confirming that it was not poisonous, I ate some.

Afterwards, I reached out and picked up the candles on the table and looked around. The decorations inside are quite luxurious after all. It seems that the person who arrested me didn't intend to abuse me, and he was still eating. Good drink for me.

But even so, I don't want to stay in this place, waiting to be rescued, and I'm the only one in this secret room. I have fear in my heart. In order to forget this fear, I can only find ways to pass the time.

I walked to the door of the secret room and yelled inside: "Is there anyone outside? I'm bored in there, are you looking for a medical book for me to read?"

Hearing what I said, a man's voice came from outside, "What's the noise?"

Hearing someone answer me, we just smiled and said: "Brother, I am also a woman after all. Now that I am locked up here, I am naturally afraid, so please help me to find a medical book for you." I'll take a look, thank you brother!"

As soon as I said this, the man outside opened the door impatiently, and suddenly a big man with a scar engraved on his face stood in front of me with a fierce expression on his face.

"Girl, since you have been imprisoned here, I advise you to stay alive. You will know whether you are dead or alive in a short time!"

Looking at the burly man in front of me, I was actually a little scared, but just to pass the time, I had to bite the bullet and reached out and took out one of the three silver needles in my sleeve and handed it to the big man in front of me.

"Brother, look, this silver needle has the highest purity and is worth dozens of taels of silver. I beg you to help me find a medical book, and bring some pens and ink? I'm already locked up here anyway, so I can't escape. I’m going out, brother, you can help me find these things and pass some time for me, right?”

I have read some miscellaneous books in the past, saying that most of the men in this world will be more sympathetic to beautiful women, so when I look at the man in front of me, although I am afraid in my heart, I have always shown very kind and pitiful.

The big man in front of me stretched out his hand and took the silver needle I handed over. He held it in front of his eyes for a closer look, and then nodded in embarrassment, "Wait, I'll bring it to you in the evening!"

Hearing what he said, I laughed and said, "Thank you so much brother!"

The door of the secret room was closed again soon, but now I can be sure that I must be locked outside the palace now. If it is inside the palace, besides the guards and the emperor, there are many eunuchs and maids in the whole palace, but just now The young man knew at a glance that he should be the guard of a certain mansion.

In my heart, I wanted to prick the man with a silver needle to knock down the man, and then escape, but I knew in my heart that since someone sincerely locked me here, the people who guarded me probably didn't know such a burly man.

In the secret room, there was a sound of water flowing next to my ears. There is a sound of water flowing, usually near the river, but the sound of water flowing by the river is not so loud. The sound of such water flowing is either the sound of spring water flowing, or It is the sound of a large waterwheel being built in the garden of some expensive mansions, and the water is constantly circulating back and forth in the waterwheel.

Thinking of this, I frowned slightly.

If it was the sound of spring water, how could such a secret room be built nearby?
Thinking of the woman who brought me the food just now, the hot food must have just come out of the pan, and there are so many tricks, I always feel that I am locked up in some mansion now.

However, I definitely can't sit still like this, I have to find a way to save myself.

In the evening, the big man really found me a medical book, and of course he also brought me pen and ink.

"Hide these things when people come. If we are found, we will all be punished. When the time comes, the things will be confiscated. You will not be so lucky when the next wave of people comes."

Hearing this, I smiled and looked at the big man in front of me and said, "Thank you, brother!"

But then I lowered my head and looked at the medical book in my hand. It seemed that the medical book had been observed for a long time, and I immediately said, "Dare to ask, brother, where did you find this book?"

Hearing this, the big man said: "Of course I went to the library to rent this book for you, and it has to be returned within three days. If you finish reading it within three days, give it to me, and I have to send it back."

Immediately, I smiled slightly at the big man, "Yes, I must finish reading it soon!"

After that, the big man went out again, and when the woman who brought me food came in the evening, she still looked at me coldly, so I naturally hid the medical books and pen and ink in my sleeve, and waited for the woman who brought me food to leave. After that, we took out the medical books again.

Opening the medical book, I found that the predecessors had left a lot of annotations in this medical book, but I had seen a lot of the content in this medical book in Wuyou Pharmacy back then.

After reading this book, it helped me spend three days. Before I handed it over to the man outside, I took a pen and wrote a word at the end of the page, "Shen".

When I write the character "Shen", I usually write the three horizontal lines at the bottom vertically, which looks like a "Chuan" character. Naturally, apart from Concubine Ning, who has passed away, I know this matter best, and there is another person who is Jun. Worry-free, he also knows.

After all, I have studied medicine by his side for three years, and naturally I have written many prescriptions, so he has seen many of these "ginseng".

In fact, I have never been sure that my "ginseng" can be discovered by Jun Wuyou. To be more precise, if I do so, I am afraid that it is just a useless act, but no matter what, if there is a glimmer of hope, I can't be discouraged .

After the medical books were taken away, the big man said again: "Miss, what good things do you have, I can borrow some books for you to have a look!"

I was surprised when I heard this big man suddenly say this. Sure enough, there are too many people in this world who are too greedy. A silver needle made him greedy. Naturally, he might still want something better after that.

However, having greed is undoubtedly a good thing for Zhou Ning.

Immediately, she smiled at the big man in front of her, reached out and took out another silver needle.

"Brother, this silver needle was originally used by me to practice medicine. If my brother sells this silver needle directly to the pharmacy, I'm afraid the price will be higher."

Hearing what I said, the burly man in front of him said: "Selling medicine? I haven't heard that this doctor used this silver needle when he was practicing medicine!"

Hearing this, I smiled slightly.

"Brother may not know, the doctors in the general pharmacy will naturally not use this thing, but the elder brother has heard of Wuyou Pharmacy? Only this Wuyou Pharmacy uses this kind of silver needle, why don't you go Ask Wuyou Pharmacy to see if you can sell it for a good price!"

After saying this, I was really nervous.

Because I was worried that the big man guarding me had already heard about my identity and knew that I was once Jun Wuyou's apprentice, but I was also thinking in my heart, since someone locked me here, they should not be with these subordinates. When people talk about my identity, naturally they should not know who I am.

Seeing what I said, the big man in front of me sneered and said: "Girl, don't you have something to do with Wuyou Pharmacy, let me go over and give you a tip-off? Since you said that the silver needles are only available in Wuyou Pharmacy, naturally then People in Wuyou Pharmacy should also know that you have this thing in your hand."

The big man in front of me is not stupid, but I pretended to smile and said: "I will tell you the truth, brother, maybe I have heard that I am from the palace, and the third prince in the palace was once poisoned. The miraculous doctor went to the palace almost every day to check the pulse of the third prince and give acupuncture. At that time, I saw that the silver needle must be a valuable thing, so I stole a few while the miraculous doctor Jun was not paying attention. Big brother, silver needles. It doesn't have any characteristics, even if you take it to Wuyou Pharmacy, Doctor Jun will not find that this silver needle is the one he lost."

Seeing what I said, the big man in front of me looked at me suspiciously.

Seeing this, we smiled and said, "Brother, you can sell this silver needle at a pawnshop, and you can exchange it for two or thirty taels of silver at most, but if you sell it at Wuyou Pharmacy, I'm afraid they will give you four or fifty taels of silver." Silver is also possible!"

After I said this, the eyes of the big man in front of me lit up immediately.

Thinking about people like them, even if they worked for someone else's noble mansion for a year, they didn't cost more than ten taels of silver. Now when he heard that they could have four or fifty taels of silver, he would naturally be moved.

The big man took the silver needle from my hand, and immediately said: "Okay, I'll trust you just once!"

Seeing that the silver needle was taken away, my heart kept beating rapidly. However, just when I thought that as long as the silver needle was taken away, I would be saved. Unexpectedly, the big man handed it to me with a smile in the evening. Several medical books, and then said: "Girl, what you said is true, I took this silver needle, but it was worth 60 taels of silver in exchange!"

After I reached out to take these medical books, I saw the big man continue to smile and said: "I bought these medical books for you, after reading them, you can keep them for yourself, don't worry about returning them!"

Seeing what the big man said, I frowned slightly and said, "Brother, who did you sell the silver needle to?"

Hearing this, the big man said: "It seems to be someone named Uncle Qin, but girl, do you still have silver needles here? If you have any, I will do it for you whatever you ask. You give the silver needles to me." me!"

Hearing what the big man said, I subconsciously clenched the last silver needle I had left and said, "Brother, I stole two in total and gave them to you, and you have exchanged a lot of silver, so I don't want it." Don't be greedy anymore."

Seeing what I said, a look of disappointment appeared on the face of the big man.

"In that case, you should stay inside!"

After saying this, the big man went out, and I stayed in the room, feeling a little lost.

The silver needle was taken away by Uncle Qin. Presumably, Uncle Qin would not know the news that I was kidnapped, but, I always feel that Uncle Qin should be able to recognize the silver needle!

However, just when I thought that my hope of seeking Jun Wuyou to save me was shattered, about two hours later, it should be midnight at this moment, and I suddenly heard a burst of noise in my ears.

"Who are you, you dare to break into the Lin Mansion without authorization? Do you know that our Lin Manor is the home of the Empress Dowager!"

Lin Fu?

I immediately sat up in shock, it turned out that the Queen Mother had someone kidnapped me, but why did the Queen Mother do this?

Immediately, I thought of Yuwen Jinlai.

That's right, the queen mother probably knew that Yu Wenjin was different from me. Originally, the queen mother and Yu Wenjin were rivals. Come to think of it, she just wanted to hijack me to threaten him!

It's just that, at this hour, someone unexpectedly broke into Lin's mansion. Could it be that someone came to rescue me?
Thinking of this, I packed myself hastily, and waited anxiously inside.

After about a moment, my ears were filled with the sound of swords and swords, and soon the outside became quiet, but I didn't know which side had won the victory.

Suddenly I heard the sound of the iron chain again, "Bang!" The iron chain that locked the door outside seemed to be split.

Soon, the door of the secret room was opened by the "booming" doctor, and Yu Wenli rushed in at the head of the room.

"Ning'er..."

Hearing his voice suddenly, I looked at him in surprise, and Zhang Lin's leading voice filled my ears again.

"The subordinate is late to save the princess, please forgive me!"

Seeing all this, my eyes suddenly turned red.

Yu Wenli walked up to me quickly, and took me into his arms.

"Ning'er, the king is late..."

My heart trembled fiercely. I was locked in this dark secret room. I was never afraid or frightened, but I always comforted myself in my heart, and one day I would be rescued.

Because I have the silver needle that Jun Wuyou gave me in my sleeve, and I have the medical skills that Jun Wuyou taught me, I thought I could tell Jun Wuyou the news and let him come to save me, but I never thought of it Yu Wenli unexpectedly appeared suddenly, and the person who came to rescue me was actually him!

Yu Wenli and I didn't have much to say. He brought people to rescue me this time, so he didn't come here in an aboveboard manner. In addition, this is the Lin Mansion, which is the queen mother's family, so he didn't dare to be too presumptuous if he wanted to come to Yuwenli.

When we left, Yu Wenli hugged me and jumped onto the roof, and then hurriedly brought me back to the Li Palace. At this time, the lights in the palace were shining on Yu Wenli's face. He has grown a lot of stubble, and his eyes are completely bloodshot. It seems that he is looking for me, and I am afraid that I have not closed my eyes these few days.

Seeing his appearance, I immediately leaned on his chest and said, "My lord, how did you find out that I was locked up in the Lin Mansion?"

Seeing me asking this, Yu Wenli said: "After I knew you were missing, I sent someone to search secretly, but I didn't expect to find the silver needle you used to give people in a pawnshop, and then I found out the money that was pawned. Only now did you find out that you were hidden here!"

Hearing such words, I naturally felt a little surprised. How much effort did Yu Wenli waste to find the pawn shop?
However, before we finished speaking, Zhang Lin suddenly walked in in a panic.

"My lord, Prince Li's mansion is...surrounded by the emperor's army!"

When I heard the news suddenly, my expression paused, I didn't want Yu Wenli to say with a cold face: "What's going on?"

Then Zhang Lin reached out and handed over a letter.

With his back to me, Yu Wenli opened the letter, and it was indeed written by Yu Wenjin himself.

"I heard that you, the sixth brother, hijacked Zhou Ning in the mansion. If you don't return him to me, I will definitely not recognize you as my own brother!"

Seeing this letter, Yu Wenli frowned.

Instead, Yu Wenli stretched out his hand and burned the letter.

I immediately stepped forward and said, "What did he say in the letter? Could it be that he thought you were plotting a rebellion and came to arrest you?"

Hearing this, Yu Wenli turned to look at me and smiled slightly.

"Ning'er, don't worry, wait for me to go out for a while, and I'll be back soon!"

Hearing this, I paused and said, "Will you never come back after leaving this time? Yu Wenjin is so cruel. If he knew that you had a rebellious heart back then, it would be absolutely impossible for him to come back." Let go of you!"

Seeing what I said, Yu Wenjin reached out and knocked on my forehead, then smiled and said: "No, don't worry, this king will definitely come back safely!"

Seeing him rushing out, I was the only one left in the room right now, but soon Qilan also rushed over, and as soon as she saw me, she threw herself into my arms.

"Miss, are you okay?"

When Qilan said this, tears fell down my face, and I looked at her and smiled, "You and Zhang Lin are getting married soon, why are you still crying so much, are you not ashamed?"

Hearing this, Qilan's face turned red, and she said shamelessly, "Miss, this servant is concerned about you!"

I had a conversation with Qilan right now, and soon Zhang Lin came back suddenly.

Seeing Zhang Lin, I secretly felt bad.

"what happened?"

I asked immediately.

As soon as Zhang Lin came in, he said: "Princess, the prince ordered his subordinates to arrange for you to leave through the back door first, and the prince will be back soon!"

Leave, avoid?
This is not normal at all!

Immediately I asked, "Did something happen to Zhang Lin, the prince?"

Hearing this, Zhang Lin's face flashed and he said: "Princess, don't worry, the prince is the emperor's younger brother, and the emperor will definitely not embarrass the prince!"

However, the more I heard such words, the more I felt something was wrong.

Immediately I said: "Zhang Lin, do you think I'm a fool? Tell me what happened!"

As soon as I said this, Zhang Lin's body froze, and Qilan looked at Zhang Lin anxiously for no reason, and said anxiously: "Zhang Lin, don't you see that the princess is so worried about the prince's safety, tell the truth! "

Hearing this, Zhang Lin suddenly knelt down.

"Wang Concubine... The prince is confronting the emperor outside the door. The emperor said that as long as the prince is willing to hand over the princess, the emperor can save him from death..."

Hearing this, my body froze.

Yu Wenjin, he actually made such a big move for me?
I looked at Zhang Lin, saw the anxious look on his face, and wanted to ask Yuwenli to ask him to take me away, but he is Yuwenli's confidant after all, in order to save Yuwenli's life, he is naturally more willing to send me out .

But, from another perspective, for Yu Wenli's safety, I would rather throw myself into the trap.

However, when she heard the news, Qilan stretched out her hand to hold my arm and said, "Miss, you must not go out. Since the emperor did this, someone must have designed it on purpose. Once you are rescued by the prince, the emperor will come back to you." It's here, maybe there is another conspiracy behind this!"

Qilan's mind is also very careful now. I haven't thought about this matter, but she has already figured it out.

But what is the conspiracy behind this?

Why did Yu Wenjin appear by such a coincidence when I was rescued back home by Yu Wenli?
But when I thought of Yu Wenli's life, I immediately said: "No, I can't leave him alone!"

After all, I looked at Zhang Lin and said, "Zhang Lin, take me out!"

Zhang Lin stood up and was about to take me away when Qilan held me by the side.

"Miss, you must not go out. According to what this servant has seen, this matter is no longer as simple as you going to the palace for revenge? You don't know, in these three days, too many things have happened outside. When you go back to the palace with the emperor, the servants are worried that you will die!"

Hearing this, I paused slightly, "What happened these few days?"

Hearing this, Qilan was about to speak, but Zhang Lin who was on the side said: "Qilan, you are crazy, you dare to disobey the prince's order, you will be dealt with by military law!"

Hearing this, I felt even more that something was wrong, and immediately I looked at Qilan and said, "Qilan, am I your master, or is Yu Wenli your master?"

As soon as I said this, Qilan's body trembled, and she turned to look at Zhang Lin and said: "I'm sorry Zhang Lin, Qilan's life was given by the young lady, and Qilan can't hide it from the young lady!"

Here, Qilan knelt down and looked at me with red eyes.

"Miss, the conflict between the emperor and the queen mother has broken out, and now the prince is on the queen mother's side..."

When I heard this news suddenly, my expression paused, and I looked at Qilan in shock and said, "Say it again!"
