Qi Ying had also rushed back to Qi Ziyuan. Although he was seriously injured, he did not dare to delay going back to report the news. After running all the way back, Qi Ying almost had to hold on for a breath before he arrived in front of Qi Ziyuan.
Qi Ziyuan saw him coming back alone and guessed it. He looked at Qi Ying who was kneeling in front of him, but still asked without giving up: "Where is she, has she left?"
Qi Ying lowered his head and said: "Song Yu The people who are alive are here. I can't beat them."
Qi Ying's face was very ugly and gray. Even though he was wearing black clothes, Qi Ziyuan couldn't see the blood on him. Guess he was seriously injured. But Qi Ziyuan was so angry that he couldn't tell the difference in his tone. He asked: "So you just watched her being taken away, right? Why are you so useless? Why don't you be more careful when you know you are running away? You .You.!”
Qi Ziyuan was so angry that he couldn’t speak clearly. Although he didn’t know what grudges there were between Song Yusheng and Wen Chu, he saw that she was so eager to run away, so he knew what would happen this time. What will happen to her if she is caught?
He was a little at a loss, but he still had to force himself to calm down. He looked at the injured Qi Ying in front of him and said, "You go to recover from your injuries first."
Qi Ying saw that Qi Ziyuan really didn't punish him. There was some surprise. This is the first time he has made such a big mistake, and his sin has led to death.
Qi Ziyuan looked at Qi Ying motionless, frowned and asked, "What are you doing not leaving?"
Qi Ying said what he was thinking, "Master said before, If I can't protect her, I don't have to live anymore."
If Wen Chu hadn't threatened her with his life, Qi Ying would have fought Dongyue and the others to the death. If he couldn't beat them, he would have died. . This is the fate of the secret guards. Every sound they make is to run for the master's order. If the master asks him to die, he will be willing to do so. But Wen Chu stopped him, and he had no choice but to come back.
After hearing what he said, Qi Ziyuan was silent for a moment and said: "Qi Ying, you have been with me since you were a child. The reason why I want you to go is because I trust you. If you can't help her, then it's true. There's nothing I can do. You've been following me for so long and you're still looking at me. Don’t you understand me? My words really mean that you should die. Xiao Xi has been with me for two years, and she understands me. Why don’t you understand?”
Qi Ziyuan knows, if it’s Wen Chu? Without persuading him, Qi Ying might have drawn his sword and killed himself by now.
Qi Ziyuan had a headache, but he still said: "This is my fault. I won't say anything about killing you next time."
Because Qi Ying would take it seriously.
He turned around and walked out. Qi Ying came back to his senses and asked urgently: "Master, where are you going?"
Qi Ziyuan waved his hand and said: "I will go to the Duke's Mansion to see what Song Yusheng wants to do. You can rest assured to recover from your injuries. Nothing serious will happen."
*
< br>It was almost evening, and Qi greeted the Duke of Guo. He took out the Qi family's token and showed it to the concierge, saying that he wanted to see the prince.
Later, the concierge reported to Mrs. Song. When Mrs. Song heard that the person came to look for Song Yusheng, she didn’t think much about it. After all, they were officials in the same dynasty. Although they were a military general and a civil servant, they were not It's too close, but the Song and Qi families are all members of the Crown Prince's party, so there are a lot of things to discuss.
Seeing that he came to look for Song Yusheng, Mrs. Song quickly asked someone to take him in, and then sent someone to inform Song Yusheng.
The two did not meet at Yuhuitang, but at the waterside pavilion in the back lake of the Song family.
The scenery here is very good. Even at night, you can see that this place is extraordinary. There are bamboo trees and rare stones. You can see rare stones every two steps. The pavilions here The pavilion is spacious, and the waterside pavilion is surrounded by a circle of vermilion railings. Lanterns have been hung on several eaves. Since it is almost summer, there are many flying insects swarming around the lanterns. There are many cicadas chirping around.
Song Yusheng was already waiting in the waterside pavilion. He was sitting in front of the stone table, pouring tea and water by himself. There was no one else around him.
Qi Ziyuan strode forward, stepped over several stone steps, and entered the waterside pavilion. He sat on the stone bench opposite Song Yusheng.
Qi Ziyuan didn't ask any riddles, and asked straight to the point: "What do you really want? How has she offended you? If you want you to treat her like this, you will not let her go. Song, the first son of the aristocratic family, Qi’an, with this kind of ambition, he won’t even let go of a woman.”
Song Yusheng was not angered by him, and just said calmly: "The matter between me and her cannot be solved by letting go. She and I have an oath of love, and outsiders cannot interfere."
Each other.
As soon as these words came out, Qi Ziyuan's face turned ugly, but he still said sarcastically: "What bullshit vows of eternal love, I can't see what she has to do with you, people are eager to run away, but It's too shameless of you to talk about eachother."
Qi Ziyuan's tone was very unpleasant, and he almost pointed at Song Yusheng's nose and scolded him.
Song Yusheng didn't say anything after hearing his fierce words and deeds. He raised his hand and raised the cup to take a sip of tea. After putting down the water cup, he looked at Qi Ziyuan with a half-smile but said, "Little General Qi, do you really want to Are you talking to me like this?”
Qi Ziyuan could hear the threat in his tone and was helpless. He could only suppress his anger and asked in a cold voice: "What did you do to her?"
Song Yusheng smiled and said: "She and I There is no need to do anything about Let me tell you. Who are you to me? Who are you to her?"
Qi Ziyuan is not usually impatient, but when he sees Song Yusheng's coy look, his temper is suppressed. Can't stand it anymore.
He stood up angrily and raised his voice and asked: "Song Yusheng, you are the number one scholar, and you are the minister of Dali Temple at the age of twenty-two. Do you really not know that? Can you not know who she is? ? ! Who am I to her? I tell you who I am to her. I have been with her for two years. She has known me since she was young, and I have known her when I was young. We walked through every place in the palace together, climbed Crossing the tree of Kunning Palace, I even sneaked out of the palace with her. We have eaten snacks from the streets, watched magic tricks together, and seen world-famous beauties. Do you think you can erase the memories between her and me? You dare to imprison her! ? ”
Qi Ziyuan said something else. It was okay, but he insisted on bringing up the past between the two of them. When Song Yusheng heard these words, his face turned really ugly. He said: "You said you have memories with her, then let me ask you, back then you Didn’t you go to save her? ”
This matter was a knot in Qi Ziyuan's heart. He hated himself for not being by her side at that time. When Song Yusheng said this, Qi Ziyuan said angrily: "I'm at the border!"
"Yes, I used to be at the border. But don’t forget, she also begs It's your fault, you didn't help her."
A young general is always calm and steady, but when he met Li Zhaoxi, he was so panicked. He fell into a huge trap just because of Song Yusheng's words. of despair and regret. He regretted that day when he was hit by her while carrying a wine bottle on the street, but he did not recognize her immediately. If he did, he would definitely pull her behind him.
Unfortunately, there is no if, one step is wrong, and every step is wrong.
Song Yusheng took out Qi Ziyuan's jade pendant from his sleeve and threw it on the table. The jade pendant made a crisp sound when it touched the stone table.
"If you want to reveal her identity, just go ahead, take your things and get out. If you insist on mentioning these things again, I don't mind breaking up with you. But General Qi should also know, Li Zhaoxi I care about her too "Brother, if she knew that the Crown Prince had lost the support of the Song family because of you, would she hate you?"
After saying this, he no longer cared about who Qi Ziyuan was. With an expression on his face, he stood up and left the waterside pavilion.
Qi Ziyuan was so angry that Song Yu was about to vomit blood. What should he do? What should he do now? He couldn't even see Wen Chu's face, and in the end he was so coerced by Song Yusheng. What could he do? What to do?
He took back the jade pendant that he had thrown on the table, and was at a loss for a moment.
Not to mention anything else, it was the Song family who helped Emperor Linghui ascend to the throne again. After the rebellion of King Li, when almost all ministers gave up on Emperor Linghui, Song Yusheng saved Linghui. Emperor, and then let the Song family support him again. For this reason alone, they could not offend Song Yusheng, because it was not an exaggeration to say that he was Emperor Linghui's savior. Crown Prince Li Weiyan does not have the Holy Heart. If he continues to make trouble with Song Yusheng, wouldn't he be killed? !
Kuang said that Li Zhaoxi did love her dearest brother in the past. If she really harmed the crown prince because of him, she might really fall out with her.
Qi Ziyuan did not stay here any longer and left here in a daze. When he left the Song Mansion, he bumped into Song Liqing and Song Yuxi, the third son of the second room at the door.
The two of them seemed to have just come back from the street outside, talking and laughing, looking very lively and happy.
Qi Ziyuan now saw that the Song family members were not feeling well. He passed by them with a sullen face and went outside without even saying hello.
Song Liqing also has the temperament of a eldest lady. When she saw Qi Ziyuan scorning them for no reason, she didn't like him. She directly followed Song Yuxi next to him and cursed, "That's wrong."
Song Yuxi also felt that Qi Ziyuan was a bit inexplicable, so he nodded and cursed, "Well, there is something wrong indeed."
The two of them did not continue to pay attention to him, and walked inside after scolding twice. Went.
But at this moment, Qi Ziyuan suddenly turned around and strode up to the two of them.
Qi Ziyuan came with such force that the two of them thought that he wanted to take action. After all, he was a general who had been on the battlefield and killed people. He frightened the two of them with just these two steps. Song Although Yu Xi was a little scared, he was still manly and pulled Song Liqing behind him.
He said: "What do you want to do?! This is in front of our Song family, don't get sick!"
Qi Ziyuan said: "What's wrong? Who's wrong? Go and ask your good brother what he's done. He looks more upright than anyone else, but he's not just as dirty and dirty."
After Qi Ziyuan said this, he left the place without looking back, leaving the two of them confused.
Song Liqing asked: "What on earth is he talking about? Good big brother? Whose good big brother?"
Here is a person with a big room and a person with a second room. Both of them have a Brother, so which one of them is Qi Ziyuan talking about as a good eldest brother?
Song Yuxi was also confused by Qi Ziyuan's words. He said: "I think it should be my brother, right?" He thought about it more and more, and he said: "Don't I told him I often feel that there is something wrong with my brother's brain. If my brother accidentally offends him, it's no wonder that he is so angry." Song Liqing did not agree. When she heard Qi Ziyuan's words, she seemed to be talking about her brother.
Song Yuxi did not say any more, but Song Liqing planned to visit Yuhui Hall later.
*
When Song Yusheng returned to Yuhuitang, Chen Xiang said that Wen Chu had been refusing to eat.
Chen Xiang had long guessed that Wen Chuxu would not be able to escape, but she could not dissuade her. Now that the person has been captured, his life is even worse than before. He is locked in a dark room with a chain, day and night, and he can suppress his illness even if he is not sick.
Chen Xiang reported Wen Chu's situation to Song Yusheng. She said: "Girl, she has been refusing to eat. When the food was brought in, she smashed it. She said"
Song Yusheng said in a cold voice: "I hesitate to do something." "What? Go on."
"She said that if she wasn't given the soup, she wouldn't eat it." A thin layer of sweat broke out on Chen Xiang's forehead after saying this.
Song Yusheng walked up to where Wen Chu was locked up. He opened the door, let Chen Xiang burn the lamp in the room, and then asked her to put the food on the table.
After Agarwood lit the lamp, she retreated and closed the door.
There was silence in the room, without a sound. Wen Chu lay on the bed, curled up into a ball. Looking from the direction of Song Yusheng, he could only see her thin back. She just turned her back to him, motionless. If Song Yusheng hadn't been able to Seeing the slight rise and fall on the top of her body, she thought she had died.
Song Yusheng walked to the bed and said, "Get up."
Wen Chu heard it, but did not move, as if making a silent resistance to him.
Song Yusheng was not angry and said calmly: "Qi Ziyuan came to see me just now."
He saw Wen Chu's body shaking slightly, but it was just a moment. But this time he still couldn't avoid Song Yusheng's eyes.
He said: "I don't want to threaten you, but you haven't eaten all day, so drink some porridge to cushion your stomach."
He deliberately mentioned Qi Ziyuan to her, and Wen Chu could guess what he was going to do next. She was going to say something threatening again, but she didn't wait until he continued to speak and sat up from the bed.
She hadn't eaten for a day, but she still managed to keep herself up. She looked at Song Yusheng and said coldly: "You don't need to threaten me. What else can you do besides these things?"
< br>Song Yusheng's eyelids jumped when he saw her getting up. It was useless what he said, but as long as he mentioned Qi Ziyuan or other people, she was willing to pay attention to him.
He remembered what Qi Ziyuan said just now in the waterside pavilion. He suppressed the depression in his heart, and the smile that appeared on the corner of his mouth was a bit weird. He said: "As long as you know these, it is enough, no ”
He lowered his head and glanced at the chain on Wen Chu's ankle. The chain was a bit short and was not enough to go to the table to eat. He took out the key from his sleeve, grabbed her ankle, and started to unlock it.
The woman's ankles were slender, and Song Yusheng's fingers were long and could be grasped with one hand. He touched her feet without any distractions on his face.
Wen Chu was too lazy to argue with him and let him do what he did.
After a while, he untied the chain. There were no shoes in the room. Song Yusheng picked her up by the waist. He sat on the stool, but refused to let go, letting the woman sit in his arms. middle.
Wen Chu had no appetite at first, and she was even more disgusted when she saw these meals. She said, "I want to vomit, but I don't want to eat."
Song Yusheng thought she was still losing her temper and said, "You have been hungry for a day and you still have no appetite? You didn't have such a small appetite before."
Wen Chu said: "You are holding me, so I feel nauseous, okay? ."
Song Yusheng fell from his throat. He let out a laugh and said: "That's really wronging you. It's disgusting, but you still have to eat it."
Seeing that she refused to move her chopsticks, Song Yusheng took a spoon and gave her a spoonful of porridge. It's fish porridge. The chef has treated the fish very cleanly and there's no fishy smell. But when Wen Chu took it into his mouth, he still felt a nauseating feeling rushing up his chest, his stomach was churning, and he vomited it out.
I don’t know if it was too late to hide or something, Wen Chu actually vomited directly on Song Yusheng’s body. Fortunately, her stomach had been empty for a day, and there was nothing to vomit in her stomach, except what she had just eaten in her mouth. After that mouthful of fish porridge, I couldn't spit out the rest.
She pulled Song Yusheng's collar and vomited wildly, but nothing came out, only some saliva dripped from the corner of her mouth.
Wen Chu was really feeling sick in his stomach, but he deliberately vomited on Song Yusheng, but nothing came out. Wen Chu was still a little disappointed. Otherwise, it would be nice if it could disgust him to death.
Wen Chu knew that he had a serious mysophobia, and just doing this was enough to make him sick for a long time. She wiped the corners of her mouth and replied in a nonchalant manner: "I told you a long time ago that I was sick."
Song Yusheng saw that she had vomited so badly just now, and it didn't look like she was lying. He was not annoyed, and just asked quietly: "I vomited, do you feel good?"
"Well, I vomited on you. , comfortable.”
These words are really a bit choking.
But Song Yusheng actually let out a chuckle, and then asked: "You can obviously turn your head to vomit elsewhere, but you have to pull my collar and vomit on me?"
"It's too late, I didn't mean it, otherwise you'd better kill me."
This neither salty nor bland look made it clear that Song Yusheng would not tolerate her.
Song Yusheng didn't do anything. He got up and carried the person to the clean room in his room. He ordered his servants to find the doctor. The two of them washed away the dirt on their bodies, and he dressed Wen Chu. After a while, he sat down in the main room and waited for the doctor to come.
The doctor of the mansion was also on the way, and when he arrived at the door of Yuhui Hall, he wanted to enter, but he bumped into Song Liqing, the third lady of the mansion.
Song Liqing was worried about not being able to enter Yuhui Hall. She didn't expect that the doctor would just come. She said to the servant who was guarding the door: "Brother is sick? I'll go in and take a look too!" "
As she said this, she grabbed the government doctor. If they didn't let her in, she would drag the government doctor to prevent him from entering.
The doctor was an old man with a long white beard. When he saw Song Liqing pulling him, he could only ask his grandfather to sue his grandmother, saying: "Oh! Third Miss Don't embarrass me, this noble man Waiting, if I go too late, I will be in trouble!"
Song Liqing refused to give in and was still insisting, "No, unless you let me go in together, you don't want to go in either! .”
There was nothing the doctor could do. Fortunately, a servant had already gone in and told Song Yusheng about the matter.
Song Yusheng sent a message to ask them both to come in, and then the government doctor was saved.
Song Liqing followed the doctor to the main room and saw Wen Chu sitting on a stool and resting on the table.
Song Liqing remembered, didn’t Wen Chu run away? At the polo match that day, I went to relieve myself and the man disappeared. Song Liqing actually hoped that she could run away. After all, she couldn't stand her brother being like this. It would be easy to say that Wen Chu was interested in him, but he obviously didn't like him. What was this?
Song Yusheng ignored Song Liqing, who was standing aside, and said to the doctor: "Let her see why she can't eat and vomits when she eats. She hasn't eaten for a day. ”
The doctor looked at Wen Chu, who was lying on the table and was sick, and stepped forward to check her pulse. He looked at her pulse, then looked at her tongue coating, and finally asked her questions such as whether she had a stomachache. After a series of interviews, he went to Song Yusheng and replied.
He said: "The girl may have a loss of appetite due to over-worry and anxiety. She will vomit whatever she eats. Don't worry too much. Just take the patch of medicine and eat again after half an hour. Maybe I won't vomit anymore. I'm just worried. To get a good medicine doctor, you must untie the bell. This girl has a heart disease, loss of appetite, and the symptoms of vomiting are just pre-symptoms. If it continues, she will become sick from overwork. "
Locked in a dark room, it would be strange to feel comfortable.
Song Liqing understood what was happening next to her. She pointed at Song Yusheng in disbelief and said, "You, you abused her?!"
Otherwise, how could people be like this? Song Liqing clearly remembered that time When I saw Wen Chu at the polo ground, she was still rosy and healthy. However, within a few days, she was beaten to the point where she couldn't even eat. If it wasn't her brother who abused her, what else could it be? !
