Chapter 138 Seventh Lady 08
"The Beauty's Laughter originated in the deep mountains of the southwest. This time, not only did they want to ban the gold paste in the cities and towns of the state, but the Marquis also wanted to cut it off from the source. But he never wanted to cause discord with the tribes in the southwest villages. Three days ago The Marquis and his people were surrounded, half of the secret guards around him were dead, and the remaining people and the Marquis were missing. The news came back from the southwest, and they arrived at the palace at dawn. His Majesty covered up the matter and ordered Ning Xiao to lead People rushed to the southwest for rescue, and Ning Xiao came today to inform me."
After Eunuch Fu finished speaking worriedly, the panic in his eyes could no longer be concealed. Bo Ruoyou stood beside him and felt a suffocating pain in his chest for a moment. No wonder he hadn't received a letter from Huo Weilou in the past few days!
"But... Deputy Commander Ke Ning will rush to the southwest now. It will take ten days at least. How can we make it in time?" Bo Ruoyou spoke, his voice was hoarse, his fingertips were numb, and he seemed to have lost three souls. Seven souls are common.
Eunuch Fu was not much better than her. He frowned and said, "This is already the best option. We can only travel all night, but we can't count on Ning Xiao. We have to save ourselves in the southwest."
He glanced at Bao Ruoyou, not knowing whether he was telling him or her, "Master Hou has never seen any storms in the past twenty years. Although there is some crisis this time, it is only a small scene and will not interfere with anything." Yes, maybe the Marquis has escaped now, but the news spreads slowly, and it will take a few days for us to find out."
But Bao Ruoyou couldn't deceive himself. Huo Weilou had always been very methodical and resolute in his actions. He made no mistakes in ordinary tasks, but once an accident happened, it was no small matter.
With a sore throat, Bo Ruoyou looked at the vast sky of today's crisp autumn sky, but his heart felt like frost falling on a cold day in December, "Deputy Commander Ning is leaving for the south now?"
Eunuch Fu nodded, "We can't delay, we will be leaving the city soon."
Bao Ruoyou's hands in front of her were wrung tightly, but she didn't know what to say for a moment. Not to mention that the capital was thousands of miles away from the southwest, and even with the Huo Wei Tower right in front of her, she, a little girl, couldn't do much to help. .
Seeing her solemn expression, Eunuch Fu couldn't help but explain: "Youyou, you don't have to worry too much. Those people are local snakes, but in fact they are just a group of rabble. Even if the Marquis encounters a moment of danger, it will not be fatal. ."
Bo Ruoyou has never been to the southwest, but he has heard that the southwest is full of dangerous peaks and swamps, with dense swamps and poisonous miasma. Many tribes and villages have lived in seclusion there for generations, and their military strategies are not as good as those of the elites in the court, but they know the terrain well. The mountain is king and cannot be easily conquered.
She took a deep breath and said, "Yes, Master Hou will be fine."
These words were also to comfort himself. After the two of them calmed down and entered the door, Huo Qinghong also noticed that something was wrong. Looking at their expressions, he asked again: "What is Ning Xiao doing in the house at this time? Brother Is there any news in the southwest?"
Eunuch Fu was speechless for a moment, and Bo Ruoyou pursed his lips and said nothing. Huo Qinghong's expression suddenly changed slightly, "What's wrong? Is something wrong?"
Eunuch Fu still wanted to prevaricate, so Bo Ruoyou said: "The Marquis was attacked in the southwest and his whereabouts are unknown. Deputy Commander Ning will leave the city today to go south to help the Marquis."
Huo Qinghong was leaning on the pillow, but when he heard this, he sat upright and said, "What?"
Bo Ruoyou said nothing more, Eunuch Fu sighed, "That's right, the news will be delivered to His Majesty at dawn——"
"How could it be? My eldest brother was attacked in the southwest?"
Eunuch Fu told the situation in the southwest again, Huo Qinghong still couldn't believe it, "Can those mountain people trap my elder brother? I...I want to enter the palace, I want to see His Majesty!"
Eunuch Fu said hoarsely: "Your Majesty deliberately concealed this matter, so that the prince does not need to go to the palace to inquire. Moreover, no matter how anxious we are in the capital, we cannot help Southwest. It is better for the prince to take good care of his illness."
Huo Qinghong was stunned for a moment, then he felt exhausted, "Brother, he has experienced hundreds of battles, he will be fine, he will definitely not..."
Cheng Yunzhi didn't expect that something happened to Huo Weilou in the southwest, and he frowned tightly. He looked at Bo Ruoyou and saw that she was really panic-stricken. He also sighed, "The mountain people in the southwest He is good at using poison, and he also has some homemade weapons and armor. He is not as easy to deal with as ordinary villagers, so the Marquis may have been trapped because of this."
Huo Qinghong clenched his fists and looked at Eunuch Fu, "Eunuch, I also want to go to the southwest!"
Eunuch Fu sighed, "Why did the prince go to the southwest? Now that something has happened to the Marquis, the prince should not let us worry about him."
Huo Qinghong hesitated to speak, but thought that he was useless, so he had to hang his head in despair. Cheng Yunzhi put away the medical box and asked Eunuch Fu again, "How is the eldest princess's body doing recently?"
Eunuch Fu hurriedly replied, "Mr. I'm sorry, I was not feeling well the past few days. After taking medicine these past few days, I have become calmer."
Cheng Yunzhi said casually: "Youyou mentioned it to me. I also said that the Marquis came back to the mansion to check for the eldest princess's pulse. She is fine now. If she gets sick again in the past few days, she can ask someone to find me at home. ”
Eunuch Fu naturally thanked her, "When the illness was at its worst, the eldest princess suffered a lot, but she is much better these days."
Cheng Yunzhi felt relieved, "It's okay if you just forget about the past, but I'm afraid that being crazy all the time will really damage your body."
Eunuch Fu must be right. Bo Ruoyou came to her senses and thought the same thing. Princess Ruoyou just couldn't remember things, or she had lost her memory. It was okay to be coaxed by the servants all day long, but now she Delirium, madness, and self-harm.
When the father and daughter left the Marquis Mansion, Bo Ruoyou still had a solemn look on his face and got into the carriage. Cheng Yunzhi comforted him: "Marquis Wu Zhao cannot be easily lost in the southwest. Don't scare yourself."
Bao Ruoyou felt his hands and feet were a little cold, "Don't worry, foster father, I know."
"Stay calm and wait for the news, lucky people will have their own destiny."
Bo Ruoyou responded, but still felt a heavy stone pressing on his heart and was breathless. When he got home, he was still a little taciturn. Cheng Yunzhi sighed, but did not persuade him much.
At dinner time, Bo Ruoyou's expression returned to his original state, and he helped Cheng Yunzhi write the prescriptions to be sent to the Chengnan hospital camp. There were many patients in the hospital camp, and each had different symptoms. Cheng Yunzhi often went to the hospital now. After leaving the camp, there was more to see, so the prescriptions were changed very quickly. After half an hour of help, Bao Ruoyou went to rest.
Early on the next morning, Bo Ruoyou rushed to the Yamen to answer the call. When he arrived at the Yamen, he saw someone who should not have been in the Yamen. It was Hu Changqing who was waiting outside the Yamen duty room. When he saw Bo Ruoyou, Hu Changqing looked a little uncomfortable, but he took the initiative to greet him for the first time. Bo Ruoyou looked him up and down for a moment, "Has the poison of Hu Wuzuo been cured?"
Hu Changqing shook his head. Under Bo Ruoyou's gaze, he didn't know where to put his hands. "It's... I haven't finished solving it yet. I'm still in the hospital camp in the south of the city. I also help out on a daily basis. Today is …I’m here to beg for mercy.”
Bo Ruoyou had a look of confusion on his face, and Hu Changqing said bitterly: "Because of the sabotage in the past, and the delay in errands caused by poisoning, according to the rules of the yamen, I have to be dismissed. In the past two months, I was willing to be lenient, but now I This drug addiction has not completely stopped. I want to help you, but I can't tolerate it, but...but I still want to ask you to extend your grace for a while."
Bo Ruoyou didn't know what to say for a moment. At this time, Sun Zhao followed Wu Xiang and walked out of the back hall. When he saw Hu Changqing, Sun Zhao sighed, "Xiao Hu, I'll give you one more month at most. Yamen Looking up and down, it doesn’t look good to always be like this.”
Hu Changqing immediately looked overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly. Since he had to return to the hospital camp in the south of the city, he quickly said goodbye and left. Wu Xiang looked at his back and sighed, "After this incident, his temperament has become more stable." Some."
Sun Zhao was a little helpless, "I used to be unwilling to work as a coward, but now I know that I have an errand in the yamen." Then he stared at Wu Xiang, "You should keep an eye on him, the poison of this gold ointment is It’s hard to get rid of addiction, but don’t make mistakes again.”
Wu Xiang responded quickly. Sun Zhao looked at Bo Ruoyou with a look that was hesitant to speak. Seeing him like this, Bo Ruoyou couldn't help but remember that Sun Zhao's expression was wrong when he looked at her the day before yesterday. Her heart moved slightly. "Does your Excellency know that something happened in the southwest?"
Sun Zhao looked surprised, and Bo Ruoyou said: "I went to the Hou Mansion yesterday."
Sun Zhao suddenly realized, looked around again, and said in a low voice: "Master Hou went to the southwest this time, and his thunderous methods made many people afraid. The timid people surrendered early in the morning, but some people will take this business seriously." I regard him as his lifeblood, but he has to become a desperado. As far as I know, the Marquis has encountered several waves of assassinations."
Another cold suffocation filled Bao Ruoyou's heart, and a slight sadness appeared between his brows and eyes, but he just said: "The Marquis must be a good person."
She was much calmer than Sun Zhao expected, so he reassured her and talked about the nunnery case with Wu Xiang. Wu Xiang mentioned the interrogation last night, "The interrogation of the other two nuns has already been completed. It was said neatly. One of them knew more about the Liu family because she was favored by the second master of the Liu family. She said something that surprised me."
Bo Ruoyou looked at Wu Xiang, and Wu Xiang said: "She said that this young lady from the Liu family was actually expelled from the family tree a few years ago."
"She was expelled from the family tree a few years ago?" Bo Ruoyou was very surprised, "But this incident happened in May last year. Why was she expelled from the family tree a few years ago? She is from the Liu family The only bloodline in Wufang."
Wu Xiang shook his head, "I don't know if this is true or not. I have to verify it. I plan to go to Liu's house later. Do you want to go with me?"
Bo Ruoyou nodded naturally. She couldn't help but stare in deep thought. At first, she guessed that Shuiyue'an had a dirty connection with the Liu family. Both she and Wu Xiang suspected that Liu Yao's accident might be related to several cousins, but later they found out Knowing that only the second master of the Liu family is good at this, since not everyone in the Liu family is a shameless person, the earlier speculation is a little rude.
Now that he learned that Liu Yao had been expelled from the family tree many years ago, Bo Ruoyou had a thought in his heart.
When Wu Xiang ordered people to prepare the horses, Bo Ruoyou walked with him outside the Yamen. When they arrived at the carriage, Bo Ruoyou couldn't help but asked Wu Xiang, "Capture the head, if we had done it earlier The guess is true, is it possible that Liu Yao is not of Liu family blood?"
