Chapter 244 Hengye’s Assassination
"Oh? Then Shuang'er, tell me, what kind of person should Bu Zhan marry?"

Facing his master's teasing gaze, no matter how stupid Shuang Jiang was, he understood that she was teasing him. He was so embarrassed that he couldn't speak and ran away with his face covered.

Bu Cha ran to the courtyard gate and bumped into Bu Zai who was about to enter.

"Ha, Cao Cao Cao Cao is here. Bu Zhen, you are just in time. I have something to ask you!"

Bu Chuan was filled with sweet fragrance, and his mind was pounding. He didn't hear Gu Qingyou's question at all. Looking at the little person popping out of his arms, he instinctively took the person into his arms again: "Shuang Girl, are you okay?"

This time Shuangjiang completely turned into cooked shrimps. She pushed him away and said loudly: "You don't have to worry about it!"

Bu Cai was so frightened that he immediately raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, and did not forget to shout to her back as she ran away like a rabbit: "Miss Shuang'er, run slowly~"

It wasn't until the slender figure disappeared around the corner that Bu Zhen reluctantly looked away. Turning his head, he saw Gu Qingyou's eyes sparkling with the fire of gossip, and a suspicious look quickly appeared on his slightly dark skin. Blushing: "Miss, why are you looking at this subordinate like this?"

"Haha, Bu Chuan, if I remember correctly, you are already twenty-two years old this year, right? Have you ever thought about getting a wife?"

Bu Zhen immediately stood up straight, and the faint fragrance remaining in his arms penetrated his nostrils, slowly softening his cold heart after years of fighting on the battlefield.

He unconsciously looked towards the corner, where a hint of light green skirt was just revealed. It fluttered in the cool breeze of the summer afternoon, scratching his heart like a feather.

Gu Qingyou naturally saw the green color, so he cleared his throat and asked in a slightly too high voice: "I see you are not too young, do you have a girl you like? If so, I won't tell you. Are you going to help me with my wife?"

Bu Zhen was startled when he heard the words, and looked around the corner almost subconsciously, then quickly looked away, shook his head for a while and said: "I know that I am vulgar, and I have never thought about any girl... Thank you very much, Miss, for your kindness. ”

Gu Qingyou was slightly suffocated, when the wind stopped and the tender green skirt at the corner quietly hung down, no longer as elegant and agile as before.

"Bu Cai, are you telling the truth?"

Bu Tian was silent, and Gu Qingyou sighed when he saw this. Although she wanted to match her, she would not force her to do anything. Shuang Jian was a good girl, and there was no reason to rush to get married, so she slightly darkened her face and said, "That's alright. It’s me who’s meddling in other people’s business.”

She just felt strange again. During these days, she had clearly seen that after Shuang'er came back, Buzai took great care of her. The little girl finally got the idea and looked like she was in love with her. She thought that things between the two of them would fall into place naturally. Unexpectedly, Bu Chuan refused.

Could it be that Bu Chuan only regards Shuang Sheng as his younger sister?

She didn't believe that her brother would blush at his sister if nothing happened.

Or is Bu Chuan just a scumbag who only flirts but doesn't marry? With her understanding of Bu Cai, that was even more impossible.

What's more, with Bu's ears, it was impossible not to notice someone at the corner, but he still said what he just said, obviously deliberately letting Shuang Sheng hear it.

His heart sank slightly: "Bu Chui, let me ask you again, are you really heartless towards Shuang'er?"

If he dares to say no, she promises not to let him get even closer to Shuangsheng from now on.

The seven-foot-old man lowered his head slightly, his straight jawline and two clenched fists at his sides showing his master's uneasiness.

He took a deep breath and was about to raise his head to speak when there was a sudden commotion outside the door.

"Come quickly! The general is injured!"

The general naturally refers to Song Hengye.

Both of them were shocked and ran out quickly one after the other.

Song Hengye was carried back.

Since returning to Beijing, he has been sorting out the information he brought back from the military camp. Except for having a meal together on the day he sent Gu Qingyou back, he basically stayed in the study room the rest of the time. Speaking of which, Gu Qingyou hadn't seen him for several days. .

Entering the palace today, he rarely wore a moon-white robe, which should have matched his orchid and jade trees, but at this moment he was lying on the stretcher with his eyes closed tightly, and the large area of ​​blood on his chest was like a coquettish red plum blossom. The big hand that could hold her up steadily fell down feebly, swaying as the servant moved around.

For a moment, everyone in the Duke's Mansion fell on their backs.

Gu Qingyou pinched the palm of his hand with his fingertips. It only took him two seconds to calm down his confused brain, and directed the servant Ding: "Send the second young master back to his room quickly, summon all the doctors in the palace, and then send someone to invite the madam back to the palace. "

Xue Lan got up early and went to the shop to check the accounts. She was not in the house at the moment. Gu Qingyou couldn't wait for her to come back, so he made arrangements in an orderly manner. When he turned around, his eyes were red and he followed her step by step. Knowing that he was worried, he He ordered: "Go and guard the second young master. No one is allowed to come near except the doctor."

"Miss, the general is seriously injured, why don't you ask the imperial doctor?"

Although Song Hengye temporarily handed over military power, his position as general was still there and he was qualified to ask for imperial doctors.

Gu Qingyou looked in the direction of the palace, and the worry in his eyes turned into condensation. He shook his head and said, "No need to go and invite someone. Someone will be here soon."

Bu Cai had doubts in his heart, but seeing her solemn expression, he didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he had no choice but to stride towards Song Hengye's yard.

"Shuang'er, come here."

The conversation with Bu Cai just now was interrupted, and Shuang Jiang came out from around the corner and followed Gu Qingyou silently. When he saw Song Hengye being sent back unconscious, his heart was already in a state of shock. Take care of the love of your children.

After hearing this, he immediately ran to Gu Qingyou and said, "What are your orders, Miss?"

Gu Qingyou whispered something in her ear. Shuangjiang was surprised at first, then grabbed her purse and quickly walked out of the house.

But the Duke's Mansion was full of people and not as good as a small hospital for recuperation. She really wanted to see Song Hengye, but she was a little hesitant.

"Yuyou, how is Hengye? Is the injury serious?"

In a daze, Xue Lan had already rushed back.

Gu Qing said in a deep tone: "The person is still unconscious, mother should go and see for herself!"

Xue Lan's heart skipped a beat, and she hurried to the backyard without even having time to change her clothes.

As the backbone, Xue Lan had to steady herself even though her legs were weak. She looked at Gu Qingyou and asked, "How is Hengye?"

Gu Qingyou trembled slightly, lowered his eyes and said: "There is no optimism, mother must be mentally prepared." Song Hengye was seriously injured, and the doctors in the government were busy rescuing them. It took half an hour to stop the bleeding. , but now the high fever caused convulsions, and his life was in danger at any time.

Song Chengye, who came after hearing the news, happened to hear this sentence and was instantly nailed to the spot: "W-what did you say?!"

His feelings for this second brother are complicated, because Song Hengye has been too outstanding since he was a child, so outstanding that he can almost not be seen in his father's eyes.

As Song Lian's only son, he has had an indescribable admiration for his father since he was a child. Even if he says he doesn't care, as a son of a man, who doesn't want his father's approval?
But it is undeniable that when it comes to being a son, Song Hengye is undoubtedly more worthy of making his father proud, so he will be jealous, fearful, and worried that he will take away his position as the heir apparent, or even -

Next to him, Gu Qingyou was seriously questioning the doctor. The not-so-spacious room was filled with a strong smell of blood. If it were an ordinary woman, she would have been too frightened to enter, but she was just like a taste, and only frowned. With beautiful eyebrows, she carefully wrote down the instructions of the doctor in the booklet, and called Bu Bu to fill it in. After giving instructions one by one, she asked him to go and get the medicine for the master in person.

Song Chengye had mixed feelings in his heart. He had indeed been jealous and fearful, but he never thought that something would happen to Hengye.

Only now did he realize that there was no longer Song Lian in the Duke's palace, and if Hengye was no longer there, could he really be the one to support the Song family?
"Madam, miss! This slave has invited all the doctors from the nearby medical center!"

The sound of frost interrupted his chaotic thoughts. When he turned his head, he saw many doctors coming in one after another outside, all carrying medicine boxes on their backs and walking in a hurry.

He instinctively frowned: "What are you doing? If you have time to find so many quack doctors, why not go to the palace and ask for an imperial doctor?"

Shuang Jiang passed by him and saluted, then stood at the door of the room without answering.

Gu Qingyou came out and ordered the doctors to wait in the side hall, then gave Shuangjiang a questioning look.

Shuangjiang nodded to her and went to the side hall.

Song Chengye saw from the side that he was confused and couldn't help but said: "What kind of riddle are you two playing?"

Gu Qingyou didn't have time to explain, so he took a look at the wrinkled clothes on his body and said, "Someone is coming from the palace soon, so I'd better go and clean up quickly."

Song Chengye drank with friends last night and came back very late, so he slept until three o'clock in the morning. He just heard that Hengye was injured. He was so stunned that he rushed over without even having time to change his clothes. At this moment, he was glared at by Gu Qingyou and felt embarrassed. He cleared his throat and said: "I'm worried about my second brother~~Ahem, but how do you know someone will come from the palace?"

"Even if no one comes to the palace, why don't you, the majestic prince, wander around the courtyard in disheveled clothes and not be afraid of people making fun of you?!"

Xue Lan's angry voice came. Song Chengye opened his mouth to defend, but Xue Lan waved his hands tiredly: "It's already a mess here. You should go back to your yard quickly. Don't let me look at you here and get upset!"

This time Song Chengye finally had some wink. Knowing that Xue Lan was in a bad mood, he shut up.

Gu Qingyou stepped forward and held Xue Lan's arm and said: "Mother, please go drink some water and rest first. The second young master may not wake up for a while. I'm here to watch. You must take care of yourself first." yes."

Xue Lan touched her daughter's little hand. After all, she was still caring.

Just as he was about to say that he could hold on, there was a sudden commotion in the room, and a doctor from the government came out with a pale face and said: "Something is not going well. Second Young Master's wound started to bleed again. The little people tried various methods, but... The effect is minimal, I’m afraid~~”

The blood in Xue Lan's limbs faded away, then her throat felt fishy and sweet, and she spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Mother! Quick! Call the doctor!"

Song Chengye hurriedly supported her. Fortunately, there were many famous doctors from Beijing and China in the side hall. Gu Qingyou quickly ordered people to send Xue Lan back to the room for diagnosis and treatment.

From the time Song Hengye was ordered to go to the northwest camp, to when Gu Qingyou was kidnapped, and now when Song Hengye was in danger, in just one month, Xue Lan was already exhausted mentally and physically, and collapsed like an overwhelmed iceberg.

Within a day, the two main pillars of the Duke's Mansion were unconscious. Song Chengye waited in front of Xue Lan's bed in panic. He suddenly realized that besides hoping that his mother would wake up soon, he didn't know what else he could do for the Duke's Mansion. Do something.

The doctor was giving Xue Lan acupuncture, but after a cup of tea, Xue Lan still showed no sign of waking up.

"What a bullshit doctor, do you know how to treat diseases?!"

Song Chengye couldn't change his bad temper. He didn't care that his mother was lying next to him, and he wanted to trouble the doctor when he got up.

When Gu Qingyou saw the way he was jumping, he felt that iron could not turn into steel. He stood in front of the doctor and said: "You are so capable, why don't you diagnose and treat my mother yourself? If you can't, please shut up!"

Song Chengye was so angry that he pointed at her nose and said, "I just told you to go find the imperial doctor, why didn't you go? Fortunately, your mother treats you better than her own daughter now. Could it be that your obedience these days is all pretense? In fact, I still regret that she divorced you before, right? "

Gu Qingyou didn't bother to explain to him, so he pushed the person out of the house and said impatiently: "If you have the ability, just go ahead and invite him, can I still stop him?"

"But to ask for a royal doctor, do you still need me to go there in person?"

Song Chengye said this, but he suddenly lost confidence in his heart. He had not forgotten that Xue Lan was in the palace a few days ago, and asked the emperor not to come to the stage in front of all the civil and military officials. The emperor did not say anything, but he must be holding a grudge in his heart. I really can't decide whether to ask the imperial doctor.

But think about it again, as the king of a country, it is impossible to have the same understanding as a woman, not to mention that the mother is not an ordinary woman. She is Song Lian's wife, with a first-grade imperial decree. No matter how good the emperor is, he will not do it openly. Go ahead and make things difficult.

The more he thought about it, the more confident he became. Who would have thought that when he looked up, he would see Gu Qingyou's slightly pitiful eyes.

At this moment, she really felt that this dude was a little pitiful. After so many things happened, he still couldn't recognize the reality.

On the surface, the emperor was a wise king, but he still allowed others to question his disobedience because he was afraid of the military power in Song Lian's hands.

If he really trusted Song Hengye, he would not have taken advantage of Song Lian's death and impatiently removed his military power.

Not to mention her encounters inside and outside the palace, one after another, basically directed or indirectly towards the Duke's Mansion. Now that Song Hengye had just returned from the northwest camp with intelligence, he was assassinated and seriously injured before he could clear Song Lian's suspicion. , who dares to say that it has nothing to do with the person above? ?

"If you don't believe it, Your Majesty, you can send someone to try. I'll go in and see my mother first."

Seeing her turning around and entering the house, Song Chengye's momentum weakened and he hesitated in front of the door, not knowing what to do.

A servant happened to come to report that someone from the palace had arrived in the front hall.

Song Chengye's heart trembled. He didn't expect to tell Gu Qingyou. He just didn't know what the reason for the person coming to the palace at this time was?
Xue Lan was not here. As the prince, he naturally had to come forward in person. However, he was only wearing obscene clothes and it was not appropriate. So he called the servant to get the clothes and prepared to dress up for a while before going to greet him. However, he saw Zhang Yong. Already leading people over.

"Greetings to the Crown Prince."

He was an unfamiliar eunuch. Song Chengye had no impression of him, so he asked, "I wonder which palace he is from? What's the purpose of coming to the Duke's palace?"
