Hand Medicine Fragrance

Chapter 271 The Oath
Brother Xuan stared, watching Ji Bocai's mouth opening and closing, as if telling a story.

It turned out that I was so desperate, so desperate to chase the thief, and spare no effort to get the medicinal materials back, but I just fell into the thief's trap.It was he who fell into the trap that put his sister in danger.

Not long ago, he was even proud of it, and even brought those thieves who fooled him and deliberately led him away to swagger through the market?To show off your achievements?
After Ji Bocai finished his conjecture, Brother Xuan immediately turned around and walked out of the hall.

"What are you doing?" Ji Bocai raised his hand to hold his wrist.

"Let go!" Brother Xuan yelled at him, the sound was like a bell, almost deafening Ji Bocai's ears, "I'm going to kill Su Wu and Su Ye! I think they are the people sent by Master to help me, read They also taught me how to practice calligraphy and reminded me to practice martial arts... But spare their lives, they actually! Unexpectedly!"

His chest rose and fell, and his face was flushed with anger.

"If you kill them, isn't it useless? It's important for the criminal officer to extract useful information from them!" Ji Bocai said.

Brother Xuan wants to shake off his hand.

But Ji Bocai's tiger's mouth was like pliers, solid and immovable.

"Let go! I want to kill them, I must kill them!" Brother Xuan said angrily.

"Are you going to save your sister, or kill someone?" Ji Bocai shouted coldly.

Brother Xuan stared, "Of course I want to save my sister!"

"Then you must calm down!" Chai Xian stood up and said condescendingly.

Brother Xuan looked back at him, his eyes were red.

"She is also my relative, and I worry about her no less than you." Chai Xian said word by word, "If you kill someone, you can save him. There are too many people I can kill!"

Brother Xuan bit his lower lip and stared.

"But if she kills someone, can she come back?" Chai Xian asked.

Brother Xuan didn't speak.

"Let him go!" Chai Xian said to Ji Bocai, "If he thinks he can save his concubine by killing one or two people, then let him go! Why stop him?"

Ji Bocai hesitated for a moment, and finally let go.

Brother Xuan lifted his legs and ran.

Ji Bocai moved, intending to stop him again.

"Don't stop him!" Chai Xian shouted.

Ji Bocai frowned and stood still, watching Brother Xuan running towards the palace gate.

"He thinks that he can solve things by impulsiveness, so let him see the result of impulsiveness. We can stop him once, twice, or even three times or four times, but who can stop him for a lifetime?" Chai Xian asked.

Brother Xuan's footsteps froze at the entrance of the hall.

One more step, and he will be able to step out of the palace gate.

But this step, he did not lift up for a long time.

It seems like a long time has passed, and it seems that it is just a blink of an eye.

When people are wandering, hesitating and struggling, time seems to be empty.

Brother Xuan suddenly turned around, and walked quickly to Ji Bocai's side, and after making another pilgrimage to salute, he frowned and said, "Su Wu and Su Ye are Ma Wenzhao's people, and they sneaked into the capital when Yu Zhende was still on the throne. Because Ma Wenzhao taught me Kung Fu, taught me how to read, and had a fateful friendship with me and my sister. I called him Master, and I sincerely regarded him as Master. Therefore, I trusted Su Wu and Suye very much. Later I Knowing that Ma Wenzhao actually took advantage of my heart, he alienated these two people. When Zhan Luan regained the imperial power, the whereabouts of these two people were even more unknown. I always thought that they had fled back to Chu State."

Ji Bocai frowned slightly, "Ma Wenzhao did this?"

"Ma Wenzhao has never given up on my sister. On the surface, he sent envoys to Dazhou to give gifts and ask for marriage. It turned out that he was just trying to confuse our attention so that he could secretly take my sister away! This despicable villain! From now on, I will no longer have any relationship with him as a teacher and student, and the old friendship will be wiped out, and the friendship will be broken!" Brother Xuan's nasal voice became slightly more nasal, and the circles of his eyes were blood red.

"Brother Xuan..." Ji Bocai spoke slowly.

"You don't need to persuade me, you analyze it as a trick. When we were all caught in the trick, I had already figured it out. He would use me once, and he would use me a second time. In his eyes, the old relationship is nothing but ass It’s just something he can use!” Brother Xuan gritted his teeth and said, “What do you like? Why can’t you let it go? I thought he was sincere to my sister! Now it seems that his sincerity is just a fart!”

The more Brother Xuan said, the more angry and shrill his voice became.

After finishing speaking, he bit his lower lip tightly, and blood was almost oozing under the teeth marks.

"Since Ma Wenzhao did it, he will definitely not imprison the princess in the territory of Dazhou. His purpose must be to take the princess to Chu." Post it at the door so they can be stopped."

Hearing this, Chai Xian frowned.

"Your Majesty?" Ji Bocai called again without hearing His Majesty's response.

"Post a portrait of a princess? Isn't that inappropriate?" Chai Xian narrowed his eyes slightly.

"What's wrong? Without the portrait of my sister, they just took her away with big swagger, and no one knew that it was the kidnapped princess!" Brother Xuan said anxiously.

Chai Xian frowned, "How noble is the portrait of the princess!"

"My lord, now is not the time to stick to this!" Ji Bocai persuaded.

Brother Xuan was even more anxious, "It turns out that you just ordered strict interrogation. How can it be useful just to be stricter? If my sister can't ask for help, she has no freedom, and others don't recognize her. Strict interrogation will not save her." !"

Chai Xian frowned tightly, and his eyes were full of struggles.

He lived in the imperial palace since he was a child, he studied the Four Books and Five Classics, and he memorized etiquette dogmas. Those solidified thoughts, the concept that royal honor is more important than everything, are almost engraved in his bones.

Even though he was very worried about Chai Sujin's safety, some things still restricted his thoughts.

"My lord..." Ji Bocai opened his mouth to persuade him.

However, Brother Xuan interrupted the conversation and said: "There is no need to reveal her identity on the portrait, just say that she is the person the court is looking for!"

Ji Bocai nodded when he heard the words, and changed the channel: "If you don't post it, you can also distribute it quietly. It's better for the soldiers guarding the city to remember the face on the portrait than they can't judge."

"To save my sister, it's better than letting her be taken back to Chu by Ma Wenzhao, isn't it? Your Majesty, that's my sister, and your sister who survived the catastrophe!" Brother Xuan's voice contained tears.

Chai Xian's brows finally loosened, "Okay, just... just as Ji Xiang said."

Ji Bocai hastily surrendered his hands and accepted the order.

"I have one more request." Brother Xuan immediately knelt down.

Both Chai Xian and Ji Bocai looked at him.

"I ask you to transport the Yangyuan Pill to the frontier in person," Brother Xuan said.

At this time, transporting Yangyuan Pill to the frontier is very different from that at the beginning.

Now that Chai Sujin is not in Jingzhong, Jingzhong no longer needs his help in making medicines.And if Chai Sujin is in the hands of Ma Wenzhao, then fighting against the Chu army has the same meaning as fighting against Ma Wenzhao.

He was in the frontier, but he was closer to Ma Wenzhao than he was in the capital, and even closer to his sister.

"The princess is not in the capital, if you leave too, and your sister comes back, how should we explain to her?" Ji Bocai persuaded.

Brother Xuan got angry when he heard it, "Cousin, don't coax me with such words! Besides, why do I need you to tell her? Am I a child? I need someone to take care of me all the time Is it? I'm just going to do business with her myself, so don't worry about me!"

This is really not pleasant to hear.

Ji Bocai frowned immediately.

"With your temperament, I don't feel relieved to ask you to go to the frontier." Chai Xian also said.

Brother Xuan was so angry that he almost jumped, thinking of what His Majesty said earlier, he suddenly took a deep breath, suppressed his impulse, and said to His Majesty, "My Majesty, I know that I have the problem of being impulsive, but this time The Holy Majesty also saw it. I dare not say how good I am, but it is not bad. I didn't do anything wrong, and I didn't let the thieves slip away. I brought back both the people and the medicine. I believe that the Holy Majesty can see it too. To the ability of the minister."

Chai Xian nodded slightly.

"No one is born perfect. Ability is cultivated little by little through honing." Brother Xuan's voice became calm for a while, "For my sister, for my sister to be safe and sound." Come back, no matter what happens, I will restrain myself and control my impulsive temperament. Isn’t this the best opportunity to exercise me? People always grow, and I still want to be in the Holy Spirit, under the wings of my cousin and sister Come on, how long will you hide?"

The hall fell silent for a moment.

Both Chai Xian and Ji Bocai looked at Brother Xuan silently.It seems that Brother Xuan has grown up all of a sudden, and what he says really makes people admire him.

"Brother Xuan, do you really think so?" Chai Xian asked.

Ji Bocai spoke hesitantly, "Your Majesty, think twice..."

Chai Xian nodded, his eyes fell on Brother Xuan, waiting for his answer.

Brother Xuan knelt on the ground and kowtowed solemnly on the pilgrimage, "Yes, if the Holy Majesty can grant it, I will be grateful, and I will definitely not betray the trust of the Holy Majesty."

"Okay." Chai Xian couldn't help but let out a long sigh after uttering the words, "I finally understand why my sister's attitude towards me is different from that towards you."

Both Ji Bocai and Brother Xuan looked at the Holy One in surprise.

Chai Xianwu shook his head and sighed softly: "To her, I am a younger brother. To her, you are more like a son. She can't bear to let go, she can't bear to let go."

Brother Xuan's expression froze.

Ji Bocai couldn't help but nodded.

"Just one more thing, you need to keep in mind." Chai Xian stared at Brother Xuan.

"Don't say one thing, even ten ministers dare not forget it." Brother Xuan replied immediately.

Chai Xian shook his head, "There's only one thing, don't let Duke Ding know about the missing princess."

Brother Xuan was taken aback. He went to the border just in case his sister was stopped in Dazhou, and Ma Wenzhao really asked Ma Wenzhao to bring her to Chu.Together with Zhao Yuanzhen, he can rush into the state of Chu and rescue his sister.

But the sage asked him to agree, so that Zhao Yuanzhen wouldn't know?

"Why...why?" Brother Xuan asked with a frown.

"You just have to remember!" Chai Xian looked at him, "Can you do it?"

"If it can't be done, why don't you ask me to go to the border?" Brother Xuan asked in a low voice.

Chai Xian snorted coldly, "It's only natural."

"I can, I can! I can do it! My mouth is very strict, I won't tell him, and I won't let him know!" Brother Xuan quickly raised his hand to promise, even forgetting to say modestly.

Ji Bocai squinted at him, "Can you keep your promise?"

Brother Xuan nodded repeatedly.

"I want you to swear!" The Holy Majesty looked at him and said.

"Swear?" Brother Xuan was stunned, "No need? How dare I violate the words of the Holy Majesty?"

Chai Xian shook his head, "No, I want you to swear, if you refuse, then forget it!"

"I will, I will!" Brother Xuan said urgently, "If I go against today's words and tell Zhao Yuanzhen that sister Zhao Yuanzhen has disappeared, I will be hit by thunder and a terrible death!"

"No, swear on the person you care about the most." Chai Xian said.

"The person I care about the most?" Brother Xuan frowned, "Do you want to swear on my sister's life?"

His voice was full of scolding and questioning.

Chai Xian shook his head, "That's the person I care about most, how can I use her name."

Brother Xuan frowned and thought for a while, then looked up at Ji Bocai again.

Ji Bo gave him a blank look, "Don't say that I am the person you care about the most, Your Majesty won't believe it."

Brother Xuan snorted softly, "You are so beautiful! I...I have no one else to care about! Just use my life, what is there to worry about? Such worry, I can't help but chill my heart!"

"For the sake of the safety of the Great Zhou, and for the sake of the tens of thousands of soldiers on the frontier, you can only be wronged, brother Xuan, and you are chilled. Just swear on the person you like." Chai Xian said.

Brother Xuan was taken aback, "I don't have anyone I like."

"There will always be." Chai Xian said.

Brother Xuan was stunned for a moment, then slowly raised his right hand, "I, Chai Jingxuan, swear on the life of the person I love, that I will never tell Zhao Yuanzhen about my sister's disappearance. Die badly."

After speaking, his face suddenly turned pale.

Originally kneeling upright, his body was a little limp.

Ji Bocai hurried forward and helped him up.

But he waved his hand, pushed Ji Bocai away, lowered his head and said in a dull tone, "Now, is it alright?"

Chai Xian never thought that his complexion and demeanor would change so much, he nodded slightly, "It's ok, you go back and prepare to leave."

"Thank you, Majesty, for your permission." Brother Xuan cupped his hands, without even raising his head to look at the majesty again, and ignoring Ji Bocai who was at the side, before exiting the golden palace.

Chai Xian and Ji Bocai looked at each other in astonishment.

"Brother Xuan really has someone he likes?" Chai Xian asked.

Ji Bocai shook his head, "At the beginning, he didn't care much, but after he finished speaking, he had such a big reaction... I haven't heard of anyone who he pays special attention to?"

Chai Xian shook his head, "Leave him alone, Ji Xiang hasten to arrange the distribution of the portrait of the princess."

Ji Bocai also quickly retreated.

-

Chai Sujin fell asleep in a trance, and when she woke up, she was either in the carriage or on the bed.

When was the last time she woke up, and how long had it been since, she couldn't remember at all vaguely.

Every time she woke up, it was when she needed to eat, or when Ma Wenzhao wanted to talk to her.

She also wanted to secretly drink the spiritual spring water to fight against this drowsy state.But every time she woke up, Ma Wenzhao was by her side, so she couldn't find a chance to be alone at all.

Ma Wenzhao even fed her meals spoon by spoon.

She really wanted to be tough, not to eat a mouthful, and even vomited the food he gave to him.

But the feeling of hunger in her belly, and there was still a life in her belly that needed nourishment, forced her to bow her head and endure the humiliation.

Ma Wenzhao seemed to enjoy the time of feeding her, and it took a lot of time to feed her every time.

"Your taste still hasn't changed? You like sweet food, spicy food, crispy snacks, and thick soup." Ma Wenzhao smiled and raised his hand, and touched the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief. "How do you eat it?" like a little tabby cat?"

Chai Sujin rolled his eyes at him, and said in a disgusted and somewhat helpless tone, "Ma Wenzhao, aren't you too boring? Is it interesting to say something like this after wiping rice on my face on purpose?"

Ma Wenzhao chuckled, "You were not like this before. You are too dull now. How energetic were you before? You are so strong that you don't look like a girl."

"You have been made groggy all day, show me your vitality?" Chai Sujin snorted coldly.

Ma Wenzhao said, "So that's the case, that's not a problem. When we arrive in Chu State, you don't have to do this. Now when we pass through the city, the soldiers at the gate of the city are too strict to check, and you are smart and alert. You are sleepy, there is no way for us to cross the border safely."

Chai Sujin frowned, "Ma Wenzhao, you won't succeed, so what if you get to Chu State? You're just arresting a useless person."

Ma Wenzhao shook his head, "Why are you useless? You are the most important person in my heart. I will treat you well and cherish you well, and you will see my sincerity."

"It's useless, you will only make me hate you when you treat me like this." Chai Sujin looked into his eyes and said.

There was a smile in Ma Wenzhao's eyes, and he approached her a little bit, "How could it be? Without love, how can there be hatred? In the past, before you met Zhao Yuanzhen, you already had me in your heart, didn't you? He did it to me." You have ups and downs, and even killed you, but you can forgive him and be with him again. It means that you don’t hold grudges. What I did to you is far worse than him? How can you remember me? What about your hatred?"

"Are you the same as him?" Chai Sujin asked coldly.

Ma Wenzhao nodded, "Of course, we all value you equally and keep you in our hearts. No, it's different. I love you more than him. I won't hurt you like him. I will protect you well and keep you in my heart." You are in my palm. I will give you whatever you want, even if you want the sun in the sky, I will shoot it down for you."

After speaking, he laughed to himself.

"I want your life, will you give it to me?" Chai Sujin asked seriously.

Ma Wenzhao looked at her coldly, "Nonsense."

"If I want Zhao Yuanzhen's life, he will give it to me." Chai Sujin said, "So, your love for me is still not as good as his."

Ma Wenzhao snorted softly, "That's not fair. It's not that my heart is not as good as his, but your heart for me is not as good as his. If you want his life, he will give it to you, but he knows, You are reluctant to take his life. Are you doing the same to me? Are you reluctant to take my life? "

Chai Sujin closed her eyes, then opened them again, "Since you know that in my heart, you are different from him, and you will never be the same, so what's the point of insisting? Isn't it making each other suffer?"

Ma Wenzhao shook his head, "Pain? Do you think I am in pain? You don't have to be afraid. I won't make you suffer. Only Zhao Yuanzhen is in pain. However, what does that have to do with us?"

Chai Sujin pursed her lips, with a thin face of anger.

"You have to remember that in the future, he is just someone who has nothing to do with us." Ma Wenzhao said with downcast eyes close to her.

After speaking, he placed a kiss on her forehead.

Chai Sujin immediately felt an upset stomach.

Fortunately, Ma Wenzhao let her go quickly, otherwise the long feeding just now would have been in vain, and she would have vomited all over his clothes.

Ma Wenzhao got up to leave, she looked left and right, the beds and tables here looked like an inn.

Looking at the wood materials and interior furnishings, it is quite different from the capital and the north.

Are they about to leave the territory of Da Zhou?No wonder Ma Wenzhao's expression became more and more relaxed.

Didn't you say that the city is strictly investigating?Why did their group pass so smoothly?Even if she was dizzy and unable to call for help or speak.But didn't my cousin ask Da Zhou to re-statistically investigate the household registration?
They have no documents or household registrations, so how can they travel unimpeded in the territory of Dazhou?
In this way, the previous speculation about the time when Yangyuan Pill was robbed, they were in Beijing, and there was an internal response beside the Holy One, must be correct?
Before Chai Sujin could figure it out clearly, her eyelids began to sink again.

Where is the sorcerer who controls her?How could she be so helpless when she didn't see anyone else?

It's best not to let her see the sorcerer, otherwise, she must let him taste the golden needle!must!
……

There is still no news of Princess Changming.

The servants in the princess mansion thought that the princess lived in the palace.

Her personal maid, Tangxi, was supposed to stay by her side in the palace, but the princess was worried that things in the princess' mansion were not handled properly, so she sent Tangxi back to the mansion.

That's what everyone in the house said.

Only Tangxi knew that the princess was in danger, but she couldn't say anything, and she couldn't even show it on her face.

When dealing with people every day, I still have to hold a calm face, nod and smile at people, so as not to show my emotions.

This is really a kind of torture, she prefers to lock herself up, find a place where no one is around, and cry heartily.

When he heard that Uncle Zhaolian had returned, Tangxi couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

Although I don't expect Zhao Lianbo to find the princess, but Zhao Lianbo will definitely not let Shengshang and Ji Xiang keep this matter a secret, right?
Zhao Lianbo must be more anxious to find the princess, right?

Under Zhao Lianbo's pressure, she doesn't have to worry about herself and pretend like this, right?She can always cry happily, right?
But Zhao Lianbo entered the palace and left the palace again, nothing happened.

She specially asked someone to inquire, but only heard that Uncle Zhao Lian returned to the mansion, there was no movement in the capital, and there was no rumor.

"Hasn't Uncle Zhaolian been punished by the Holy One?" Tangxi asked.

The maid who was talking back and forth was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help laughing: "Sister Tangxi, although you and Uncle Zhao Lian don't get along and you always quarrel when you meet, you can't be so blatantly expecting uncle to be scolded by the Holy One? Tell Uncle to find out, and clamor to punish you again!"

Tangxi nodded numbly, "Oh, no, it's fine if you don't."

"That's right, the Holy Majesty was very lenient to the uncle, what's more, the princess is living in the palace for a while now, even if the uncle has offended the Holy Majesty, seeing the princess's face, the Holy Majesty will not care about the uncle .” The servant girl said with a smile.

Hearing the word "princess", Tangxi looked up at the servant girl reflexively.

After she realized it, she curled the corners of her mouth stiffly, "Yes, what you said is true, I'm so busy and confused."

"The princess is not at the mansion, and it feels like there is something wrong with the mansion." The servant girl giggled, "Even sister Tangxi, who is usually smart, capable and cheerful, is not right!"

Tangxi's heart was shocked, "Yes, the princess mansion is only safe if the princess is in charge. I don't know when the princess will come back."

"Which master in the palace is in poor health and needs the princess to recuperate, but doesn't make it public? Otherwise, why would the princess go to live in the palace, after all, she is pregnant..." the maid muttered softly.

Tangxi was about to scold, but suddenly realized that this was also a reason to cover up, so she frowned and put on a serious face, "It's fine if you know it yourself, but don't gossip around! You and I can talk about things in the palace. Is it?"

After finishing speaking, he winked at the maidservant, quite suggestively.

The servant girl let out a soft oh, her face was filled with the excitement of learning the gossip, "Understood, sister, don't worry, I will definitely not talk nonsense!"

After the little maid retreated, Tangxi breathed a sigh of relief, and languished on the little table.

"Sister Tangxi, uncle is here!" Another little maid called out from the door.

Tangxi jumped up and almost sprained his foot.

She has never been looking forward to seeing Zhao Lianbo so much as she is now.

She hastily greeted her outside.

Brother Xuan lowered his head and walked towards the hall step by step with a sullen face.

Standing on the porch, looking at him with her hands down, she felt that Zhao Lianbo was extraordinarily tall today, like a god who saved the world.

"Uncle!" she called out.

Brother Xuan raised his head and glanced at her, but his eyes were gloomy.

Tangxi took a step forward.

"Come with me." Brother Xuan said as he walked into the hall.
