Lord Quan teases Houmen's poisonous wife

Chapter 216

Thinking of what happened that night, Yi Zhuoming's eyes turned red, and his chest trembled violently due to choking.

The door of the ancestral hall was suddenly pushed open, and the sound from outside was as if it had just been fished out of an ice cellar, it was bone-chillingly cold.

"Even now, isn't father willing to tell all the truth?"

Yi Bai stood at the door, looking at Yi Zhuoming with angry eyes, more sinister than a wolf.

The last time he went back to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, he found that Yi Zhuoming's words were dodging, so he has been looking for opportunities to catch Yi Zhuoming these days. He wanted to visit the ancestral hall for no reason tonight, but he didn't want to happen to see this scene—— Yi Zhuoming hugged his mother's coffin, and collapsed limply in front of the altar, with his feet curled up, his sad and absent-minded eyes were completely different from the hale and hearty Prime Minister Yi who was usually seen by outsiders.

Yi Bai walked into the ancestral hall, his sharp eyes fell on Yi Zhuoming.

Panic flashed across Yi Zhuoming's face, "You...how are you here?"

Yi Bai sneered, "If I'm not here, how can I find out my father's secret?"

Yi Zhuoming narrowed his eyes dangerously, "Are you spying on me?"

"If you want people not to know, you have to do nothing." If he had no choice, Yi Bai didn't want to confront his father like this, but he cared too much about his mother's death.

People who are born without maternal love will have extreme desire and sensitivity in this regard, as long as they have anything to do with their biological mother, they will easily lose their minds.

Yi Bai is like this at the moment, looking at Yi Zhuoming with gloomy eyes, as if he wants to devour everything.

Quickly stood up and carefully placed the memorial tablet on the altar, Yi Zhuoming met Yi Bai's eyes, the eyes that looked at him were no longer the kindness of the past, but added a bit of coldness and hatred, the kind of eyes that wish to live The hatred that strangled Yi Bai to death.

Yi Bai was as careful as a hair, and he noticed that Yi Zhuoming's breath was not right the moment he stood up.

"Yes, I killed your mother, so what?" Yi Zhuoming was not surprised when Yi Bai saw the clue, but he had to maintain a calm face. all.

The long-standing suspicion was admitted and confirmed by the person himself, and Yi Bai's head was buzzing, "Why did you kill her?" His voice was suppressed as much as possible, but he still couldn't hold back his anger and let out a low growl.

Yi Zhuoming asked instead, "Since you have been investigating for so many years, tell me, did you find out who your mother is?"

Yi Bainao drooped slightly, his mother was not from the Tai family, he only knew this, as for the others, he had no clue.

Seeing that he couldn't answer, Yi Zhuoming sneered, "I'm ruthless, but there are many people who are more ruthless than me. Why did your mother die? If she wasn't arranged by that person to get close to me, why would I poison her. "

The more he said the more outrageous, Yi Bai couldn't take it anymore, covered his lips and coughed, his face became paler, "What did you say!"

Yi Zhuoming turned around and stared at the words "Tai Zhiyun" on the tablet.

"The year she and I got married coincided with the spring hunt..."

……

That spring hunting night more than 20 years ago.

Hunting in the jungle during the day, and holding a bonfire party at night, the imperial guild will reward each person according to the number of prey they hunt and how precious they are according to the emperor's instructions.

Emperor Zhaowu (posthumously titled Emperor Chengxiao after his death) suffered from heatstroke, so he did not attend the dinner, and stayed in the palace to rest. There were so many spring hunters in that year, hundreds of civil and military officials and relatives added up, so the dinner was quite It was lively, because there were so many people, no one noticed that the prime minister's wife was invited out by the little eunuch next to Emperor Zhaowu.

Yi Zhuoming just saw this scene, found an excuse to leave the table and followed quietly.

Tai Zhiyun walked all the way, only to realize that it was the direction to the emperor's bedroom in the palace, and panicked, "Little eunuch, dare to ask the emperor why he is looking for his wife?"

The eunuch said respectfully: "The slave is just ordered to take Madam to Yuyang Palace, what's the matter, Madam will know when she arrives."

Tai Zhiyun was struggling in her heart, "Can't I come again tomorrow?" Now everyone is celebrating outside, and the emperor secretly sent her here. Once people find out, she will never be able to clear her reputation in this lifetime.

The eunuch shook his head, "The emperor said that he will see his wife at this time."

Tai Zhiyun's heartbeat quickened, she quietly squeezed ten fingers tightly, and followed the little eunuch step by step until she entered Yuyang Palace.

Then she was surprised to find that all the eunuchs and eunuchs in the palace were kicked out, even the little eunuch who led Tai Zhiyun to Yuyang Palace before quickly retreated.

The entire inner hall was so quiet that a needle could be heard.

"Wanwan, if I don't invite you, you don't know to come to me, do you?" Behind Ming Huang Jiaozhu's yarn, Emperor Zhaowu's slightly displeased voice came out.

Tai Zhiyun's brows twitched fiercely, and she knelt down to salute, "My wife kowtowed to the emperor."

Emperor Zhaowu waved his hand, "Okay, there is no one now, so you don't have to perform those vain rituals."

Tai Zhiyun thanked En and got up.

"Wanwan, come in." Through a layer of bright yellow gauze, Emperor Zhaowu waved to her.

Tai Zhiyun clenched her cheeks and said stubbornly: "That is the emperor's bedroom, and it is inconvenient for the minister's wife to enter. If the emperor has anything to say, just order, and the minister's wife can hear it even standing here."

"Wanwan, you're disobedient." The hidden danger and warning voice made Tai Zhiyun shrink back subconsciously. Just as he was about to step back, Emperor Zhaowu lifted the jiaozhu gauze with his big hand, strode up to her, and stretched his long arm. He circled her directly into his arms, raised her chin with his index finger, and smiled half-smile, "Wanwan, I miss you so much recently! Tell me, what should I do?"

Tai Zhiyun's complexion changed drastically, and he kept struggling, "Your Majesty, my wife is already a married woman, please respect yourself!"

Emperor Zhaowu's eyes sharpened, and the hand that pinched her chin became more intense. The pain caused Tai Zhiyun's entire face to twist into a ball, and tears glistened in his eyes.

Emperor Zhaowu didn't care how she reacted, he directly hugged her on the dragon couch, and bullied her to hold her down, "Tsk, look at this face that looks so much like Tai Zhiyun, it can deceive everyone by pretending to be fake, my Wanwan It's just great."

Tai Zhiyun, that is, Lu Qingwan's full of humiliation and hatred, "The emperor promised that as long as I replace Tai Zhiyun and marry into the prime minister's mansion according to your arrangement, you will let too much (Lu Xiuyuan's baby name) go."

"Of course." Emperor Zhaowu laughed wantonly, "I said I won't touch him, so I won't touch him, but I want you, so maybe you can satisfy me?"

Lu Qingwan's eyes turned red anxiously, "My wife..."

"Wanwan, you are my woman." He was very upset when she heard her calling herself "Sister" on the left and "Wife on the right", and stripped her naked in twos and twos.

"Let me go!" She struggled desperately, and Emperor Zhaowu raised his hand and slapped her hard. Even if he didn't love her, she was once his woman. Although he gave her to Yi Zhuoming for revenge, when he thought of her Every night when he was having fun under Yi Zhuoming's body, he felt that his dignity as a man had been seriously insulted, so he didn't give her a chance to resist at all, and forced her with an absolutely tough posture.

She cried directly, but called him to threaten again, "If you want to cry, cry louder, it's best to bring all the civil and military officials over to see how you seduced me."

In her lifetime, she had never suffered such humiliation before. Lu Qingwan was so heartbroken that she wanted to bite her tongue and kill herself.

Emperor Zhaowu stopped his movements, "You can die if you want, I will let your son be buried with him, so that you will not be alone under the nine springs."

"Please, stop and let me go." For her son, she dared not do anything, she couldn't do anything, she could only beg him over and over again.

The more Lu Qingwan begged for mercy, the more fierce Emperor Zhaowu became. He opened his mouth to enclose her earlobe, "Wanwan, even if you want to conceive, you can only conceive my child. Yi Zhuoming is not qualified to rob women from me."

She laughed miserably, feeling that all this was so ironic. The moment he personally sent her to Yi Zhuoming's sedan chair a few months ago, she suddenly realized why he suddenly confessed his love to her in Nanliang back then. He didn't really like her. She, but in order to cook rice with her first, and then use it as a bargaining chip, threatened her three younger brothers with countless money to help him.

From the beginning to the end, all he wanted was the throne. In his eyes, she was just a pawn.

That's right, all of this was arranged by Emperor Zhaowu alone.

It started when he was sent to Nanliang as a hostage.

The battle for Beiyan to seize the heir was fierce, and at that time the most popular one was King Jing'an, Ye Kuan, the fifth son of the emperor, and Ye Kuan, who took the fourth son of the emperor Ye Cheng to Nanliang as a hostage.

In the fight for the heirloom, brotherhood has never been talked about, either you die or I live.

Ye Cheng had been a hostage in Nanliang for six years, and when he finally returned home, Ye Kuan sent people to wait along the way to murder him. Ye Cheng narrowly escaped death and was finally rescued by Lu Qingwan.

Lu Qingwan is a natural beauty, whether it is appearance or temperament, she was deeply attracted to Ye Cheng at that time, and being a lonely man and a widow in Zhuangzi, sparks inevitably collided, so Ye Cheng first confessed his feelings. At that time, Lu Qingwan was still a girl with a spring heart , Ye Cheng was born with extraordinary charm, the girl's heart was so touched, and the two of them cooked the raw rice into cooked rice in a short time.

Lu Qingwan's pregnancy was eventually found out by her parents. Her parents thought it was embarrassing, so they simply kicked her out of the family tree. She was just a daughter, and she was of no value to the family, so she could just throw it away.

Without the Lu family, Lu Qingwan only had Ye Chengneng to rely on.

Later, when the three brothers of the Lu family approached him, Ye Cheng directly admitted his identity as the prince of Beiyan, and promised in front of the three brothers that he would overthrow his brothers and become the master of the East Palace as soon as possible after returning to China. At that time, he would send People come to take Lu Qingwan to Beiyan openly, but the premise is that the Lu family must help him financially.

The three brothers watched Lu Qingwan's belly grow day by day, and after discussing in private, they reluctantly agreed, and took a lot of money to help Ye Cheng without telling their parents. Although the Lu family was not the richest man at that time, the family was considered rich. His money is like a tiger with wings added. He uses it to buy information, contacts, and guards who can safely escort him back to the country.

In this way, with the support of the three Lu family brothers, Ye Cheng got his wish and returned to Beiyan smoothly. He was the most capable among all the princes of Beiyan back then, which is why Ye Kuan would follow him.

In two years, Ye Cheng stepped on the heads of all his brothers to enter the East Palace and became the crown prince. Just in time for his father's death, his father died, and he ascended the throne smoothly. In order to win over the courtiers, he married the first The first daughter of the first family, the Zhu family, is the queen.

At that time, Ye Cheng was grateful to the three brothers of the Lu family and Lu Qingwan in his heart. It can be said that he had been attracted to Lu Qingwan, but he hadn't reached the level of love. To put it bluntly, he was more attached to Lu Qingwan's body, because when he was in Nanliang, he fell in love with Lu Qingwan. It's the first time for everyone, and the first impression is naturally the deepest, so it's understandable that he will always remember it.

Later, Empress Zhu learned about his past with Lu Qingwan from nowhere, and without telling him, sent someone to Luming Mountain to arrest Lu Qingwan.

Ye Cheng only found out about this later, he was furious and wanted to find Zhu's theory, but unexpectedly Zhu directly threatened his family.

Ye Cheng pretended to compromise on the surface, and asked someone to rescue Lu Qingwan in private, but he accidentally discovered that the appearance of the prostitute daughter of the Tai family was strikingly similar to that of Lu Qingwan, so he changed his mind and set up a game. Prime Minister Yi Zhuoming bestowed the marriage, and then killed Tai Zhiyun, the daughter of the Tai family, and asked Lu Qingwan to replace her.

Lu Qingwan, who was tortured to death by the Zhu family, naturally refused. She hated this man to the core, but he threatened Lu Xiuyuan's life, saying that if she refused, he would send someone to Nanliang to assassinate Lu Xiuyuan immediately.

Even her own son was able to kill at will, which shows how vicious and heartless this man is. Lu Qingwan hates him so much, but she has no choice but to obey, just so that her son can live a good life.

The reason why Ye Cheng asked Lu Qingwan to marry Yi Zhuoming was because Yi Zhuoming, a talented young prime minister, stood in line with King Jing'an, who was also Ye Cheng's deadly enemy. King Jing'an and Yi Zhuoming married Lu Qingwan to Yi Zhuoming, hoping that Lu Qingwan would disturb the relationship between Yi Zhuoming and King Jing'an, but he didn't expect that before Yi Zhuoming turned against King Jing'an, Lu Qingwan would die first up.

For Lu Qingwan's death, Emperor Zhaowu didn't have any sympathy. Since Yi Zhuoming's side couldn't work, he would repeat the old trick and attack King Jing'an.

So another beauty was murdered by Emperor Zhaowu. This girl came from Shangyong Chu's family, named Chu Xiangyi, and she met by "coincidentally" during a private visit by Emperor Zhaowu. The word "coincidentally" is actually only relative to Chu Xiangyi. It was all planned by Emperor Zhaowu early in the morning, and he also took Chu Xiangyi's body. The reason why he didn't leave Chu Ye to King Jing'an was because he felt that his brother was not qualified to get a perfect body.

What happened after that was no different from what happened to Lu Qingwan back then. Emperor Zhaowu also tried to get Chu Xiangyi to marry into Prince Jing's mansion. King Jing'an liked Chu Xiangyi very much. She was afraid of falling, and she was so spoiled, Chu Xiangyi felt very guilty for King Jing'an in her heart, but she was threatened by Emperor Zhaowu to seduce Yi Zhuoming in private, which caused the two to break up. Then he knew the truth, and knew that Emperor Zhaowu intended to separate him from King Jing'an, so he resorted to tricks and gave King Jing'an the illusion that he and Chu Xiangyi had an affair. King Jing'an was really fooled, and soon turned against him.

Yi Zhuoming did this to let Emperor Zhaowu relax his vigilance towards him and King Jing'an, and wait for an opportunity to take revenge.

As for the matter of revenge, he has actually been carrying on it all the time. After returning from the spring hunting that year, Lu Qingwan became pregnant. On the surface, Yi Zhuoming treated her well as always, cared about her and took care of her, but secretly fed Lu Qingwan a colorless and tasteless food every day. The chronic poison caused Lu Qingwan's body to become weaker and weaker day by day, and finally lost her life after giving birth.

The second step of Yi Zhuoming's revenge was to attack Yi Bai. It was his idea to send Yi Bai to a Taoist temple. At first, it was only because he didn't want to see this evil species. Later, Yi Bai's talent gradually became apparent, and he gradually had He made a plan and secretly fueled the flames, prompting the young Emperor Xuanzong to take Yi Bai back to Beijing as a national teacher.

After that, Yi Zhuoming specially created an "opportunity" for Emperor Xuanzong to slowly discover Yi Bai's true identity, so that Emperor Xuanzong's attitude towards Yi Bai changed from the initial respect to indifference, and he would not be happy if he didn't kill him.

Yi Zhuoming's purpose was to want Ye Cheng's sons to kill each other, and he felt that this was the retribution Ye Cheng deserved.

As for the child that Chu Xiangyi gave birth to in the coffin, it was not Emperor Zhaowu's, nor Yi Zhuoming's, but King Jing'an's own. It was only because of Chu Xiangyi's deliberate cooperation with Yi Zhuoming that it created a false impression for King Jing'an .

……

Returning to his thoughts, Yi Zhuoming said in a daze: "That night, I climbed to the top of the Yuyang Palace with the help of a ladder, and watched that beast rape your mother, but he is the emperor, and I am a subject. What should I do, once I rush in, it will destroy not only me, but also your mother." Lowering his eyes, he took a deep breath, "Even if she was arranged by that bastard to deliberately approach me, even if she is not the real Tai Zhiyun at all, I can't hide my feelings for her. Therefore, as much as I love her, so much will my hatred be. Originally, I could directly use Hedinghong to kill her, but I couldn't bear it, so I used chronic poison. Seeing her and hating her for treating me like that, you won't understand the ambivalence of love and hate."

Raising his eyes, he saw Yi Bai was sitting weakly behind the door of the ancestral hall, his face was indescribably gloomy.

"So, I'm not your Prime Minister Yi's biological son at all, but the adulterous son of that bastard?"

An adulterer is a more humble, more shameful, and even more embarrassing identity than an illegitimate child.

Laughing wildly twice, Yi Bai stood up tremblingly, and walked out with his heavy body.

"Ah Bai!" Yi Zhuoming chased out and stopped him, frowning tightly, "I just cared about what that bastard did, so I transferred all my anger on you. If you put aside your identity, you are indeed a Lovely child, I will deliver your antidote in a short time, and you will not die."

"No need." Yi Bai bypassed him and walked straight forward.

Yi Zhuoming caught up again, "It was your mother who entrusted me to take good care of you before she died. I can't let her wish go."

Probably only when his mother was mentioned, Yi Bai's feelings would be touched, he stopped his steps and turned around, "My mother's entrustment?"

"Yes." Yi Zhuoming said: "The moment she was dying, she told me that she knew that I poisoned her all along, and the reason why she didn't expose it and swallowed the food I gave her every time was because she knew I'm sorry, so I chose to end my life in this way. She said that you are childish and innocent. No matter how you came here, you are always a piece of meat that fell from her body. She couldn't bear that you were mixed into the previous generation at a young age. Come from the grievances and grievances, so I beg me to take good care of you no matter what."

Yi Bai leaned weakly on the apricot tree beside him, "She shouldn't have given birth to me."

Knowing that he was a child of adultery, and letting him live until he was born, didn't she ever think that one day he would know all the truth?And knowing the truth, how should he deal with himself?

"Ah Bai." Yi Zhuoming stepped forward to help him.

Yi Bai avoided his body, his eyes darkened, "Since you have decided to kill me with the help of Emperor Xuanzong, why do you have to say these hypocritically now?"

Yi Zhuoming had nothing to say, some time ago, he really wanted to use Emperor Xuanzong's hand to get rid of Yi Bai, but he suddenly couldn't bear it when he thought that Yi Bai only had two years to live. Because he was ashamed because he didn't fulfill the promises he made to Lu Qingwan, he still reflected on himself that these hands were too cruel, but he knew very well that after recalling the events of the year carefully tonight, the hatred for Qingwan seemed not so deep.

In the final analysis, she is also a poor person. She could have lived a leisurely life like the daughter of a wealthy family, but she was entrusted to someone who was not a person, and was used and hurt by a man many times, which wasted her life.

I still remember that before she swallowed her last breath, she said with tears: "If there is a next life, I will be a slave and a handmaiden to make up for what I owe you in this life."

At that moment, he regretted it. He didn't want her to make it up in the next life. He wanted her to live again and stay by his side in this life.

But it was too late, that kind of poison not only invaded her internal organs, but also sent the poisonous gas to Yi Bai, even if the antidote was brought, it would not be able to save her.

Yi Bai looked at Yi Zhuoming calmly, his nominal father might really forgive him because of his guilt towards his mother, but he would never let himself go, adultery and childbirth, huh, there is something wrong in this world. How many people can accept such an unbearable identity?

When Yi Bai left, it happened that Yi Zhou got up at night and saw him walking towards the gate of Xiangfu like a ghost, Yi Zhou hurried to catch up, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

While asking, he went to support Yi Bai, fearing that he would fall down.

Yi Bai broke away from Yi Zhou's hand, said nothing, and continued to walk forward, he didn't want to see anyone now, if possible, he would like to dig Emperor Cheng Xiao's grave as soon as possible.

"Brother, did your wound recur? I'll call you a doctor." Yi Zhou didn't bother to ask why Yi Bai appeared in the prime minister's mansion late at night, but he felt very relieved that his brother could come to the prime minister's mansion, just seeing this Yi Bai inevitably became worried again.

"No need, I'm fine." Yi Bai didn't turn his head back, his voice was as cold as ever, if he didn't look carefully at his complexion hidden in the dark night, he wouldn't be able to hear any clues at all.

Seeing Yi Bai's back going farther and farther, Yi Zhou was in a hurry, turned his head and saw Yi Zhuoming also coming out from the direction Yi Bai had come from before, he frowned, "Father, what is Big Brother doing at the Prime Minister's Mansion late at night?" ?”

Although he hoped that his brother could come home more often, this appearance tonight was by no means what he would like to see.

Yi Zhuoming's face was serious, and he glanced at Yi Zhou, seeing that he was bewildered, thinking that Yi Bai didn't tell Yi Zhou about those things, "He's not feeling well, come get some medicine."

Yi Zhou became even more worried, and regardless of what Yi Zhuoming said later, he straightened his baggy robe indiscriminately, and ran out of the gate.

Yi Bai had already left, and Yi Zhou asked the concierge to lead a horse out, turned on his back, and galloped towards the National Teacher's Mansion.

Yi Bai returned to the mansion, retreated a group of attendants, and fell on the small couch casually, like a drunk person, he would not move when he fell down, but his eyes were open, and it took a long time to blink, sluggish and lifeless .

"Brother." Yi Zhou's broken gong voice came from outside, followed by people coming in, seeing Yi Bai lying lazily on the small couch with half of his big snow-white robe on the ground, he hurried to help him After tidying up, I moved him just so that he could lie down more comfortably.

Yi Bai stared blankly at the roof beam, his face flickering bright and dark, Yi Zhou was terrified, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to touch his forehead, he felt a little hot, probably sick.

Yi Bai is a doctor himself, so there is no doctor in his house, and it is impossible to invite a doctor from outside at this time. Yi Zhou stood up, went outside to fetch a basin of water, and soaked the towel until it was half dry. Apply it to his forehead.

Yi Bai was still the same as before, without saying a word, he let go of his Tsinghua dignified body, like a weak child.

Yi Zhou stayed in front of the small couch for a long time, feeling more and more flustered in his heart, and gently pushed him, "Brother, I am Yi Zhou, sober up! Don't scare me." The appearance of Zhuan looks like a living dead. Anyone who sees it will be shocked, let alone Yi Zhou.

Yi Bai finally tilted his head, "What are you doing here?" It seemed that it was at this time that he suddenly realized that Yi Zhou had come to the National Teacher's Mansion.

"Brother went to the prime minister's mansion at night, and came back like this, did dad tell you something?"

Yi Zhou's words were unintentional, but they hit Yi Bai hard, and the three words "begot a child by adultery" unexpectedly appeared in his mind, and in an instant, powerlessness, hesitation and despair all surged up.

Unexpectedly, after so many years of investigation, he actually found out the identity of an adulterer and came back. Everything was far from what he expected. He thought that his father poisoned his mother because of selfishness. Unexpectedly, the one with the most stories is his biological mother.

"Brother, it's too dangerous for you to look like this. Otherwise, I won't leave tonight, so I'll stay and take care of you!" Yi Bai was weak, and everyone in the entire imperial capital knew about him, but few knew him. There are very few people who are young, except for Yi Bai himself, there are only a few people who know about it, but Yi Zhou is definitely not among them.

Yi Zhou didn't know that Yi Bai only had a lifespan of more than two years, but if Yi Bai felt uncomfortable, he was definitely the first to get nervous, which shows how deep his brotherhood is for Yi Bai. If he knows the truth , designated to jump in anger.

"It's true what you said about father. It's so outrageous to ask you to go to Xiangfu at such a late hour. When I have time, I will say a few words about him for you."

Yi Bai coughed a few times, his body was very cold.

Yi Zhou glanced around, "Brother, I'll help you to lie on the bed in the inner room. It's cold outside. You're so weak, you can't bear it even if you think about it."

Yi Bai nodded almost invisible.

Yi Zhou gently helped him up, then stretched out his arms to support him, and walked slowly towards the inner room.

Yi Bai didn't have much strength on his body, most of the people were leaning on Yi Zhou, and Yi Zhou could even feel his brother's body was stiff. The most important thing was that his brother was so tall and in shape, but his weight was a bit light. How ill do you have to be so weak?The more Yi Zhou thought about it, the more frightened he became, he helped Yi Bai to lie on the couch, covered him with a brocade mattress, and went outside.

With Yi Bai's order, Jin Ou didn't dare to get too close to the upper room, but he didn't dare to walk away, so he waited under the veranda not far away.

Yi Zhou walked over under the moonlight that filled the courtyard, and looked at Jin Ou with a solemn face, "Tell me honestly, how is my brother's illness?"

Jin Ou's eyes dodged a little, but fortunately it was dark night, so he couldn't see it clearly, "Second son, Mr. National Teacher, he has been weak since he was a child, and occasionally he will be aggravated by external forces. These are all normal, but today the National Normal University The people ordered that no one should stay outside the upper room, so the subordinates had no choice but to screen everyone away, failing to take care of the master, it was the subordinates' dereliction of duty."

"External influence?" Yi Zhou grasped the point directly.

"It's not difficult to understand." Jin Ou said calmly: "Being exposed to the wind, cold, or being stimulated can make Master Guoshi weaker."

"Stimulated..." Yi Zhou chewed these three words repeatedly, thinking of his father's tone and attitude in the prime minister's mansion before, his face turned ugly. Could it be that his father said something unpleasant that upset his brother?

No, this matter has to be clarified.

Yi Zhou was impulsive, and he didn't care about it at all. Now that it's midnight, he's about to go back to the prime minister's mansion to ask his father for an explanation.

Jin Ou crossed his arms to stop him, "Second Young Master, there is a curfew outside, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to go home now."

Only then did Yi Zhou realize, "Then I'll go back tomorrow morning."

Jin Ou nodded, "The master won't let us as servants get close, but the second son is the master's younger brother, he will not drive you away, and now you are the only second son who can take care of the master for the subordinates."

Yi Zhou patted his chest, "That's easy to say, it's my brother lying inside, no matter how inhuman I am, I can't leave him alone!"

Jin Ou showed gratitude, saying that the second son and his master are not from the same biological mother, but the relationship between the two brothers has always been very good - at least Jin Ou thinks so.Yi Bai has a low temper, and he treats everyone and everything with a lukewarm attitude. Except for his wife who has passed away for many years, it is difficult to see him getting emotional because of anyone. For this second son, although his master is not there He has had good looks before him, but he has never rejected it, otherwise, the actions of Yi Zhou in Yi Bai's room, wringing a wet towel to apply to his forehead, and helping him to rest on the couch, would have been enough. Yi Zhou died several times.

Originally, he wanted to go back to his father to argue, but seeing that the weather was not allowed, Yi Zhou had no choice but to go back to Yi Zhou's room.

Probably because of physical weakness and fatigue, Yi Bai had already fallen asleep, and only in his sleep would his brows and eyes lightly open.

Yi Zhou stood beside him, looking distressed.

Since he was young, he knew that his half-brother, his mother died early, and his elder brother has never been loved by his mother, so Yi Zhou has been trying to get Yi Bai to accept his mother Xie since he can remember, but there is nothing else Meaning, I just want my elder brother to live a life with his mother's love, but Yi Bai rejects Mrs. Xie very much, not to mention accepting her, even if Mrs. Xie talks to him, he will ignore her.After a long time, Yi Zhou gradually gave up the idea of ​​letting Yi Bai accept Xie.

He is a thick-skinned person, no matter how coldly Yi Bai faces him, he always has a smile on his face, probably because of this "shameless" spirit that makes Yi Bai feel helpless, so he doesn't drive him away at all, every time The next time he came to the National Teacher's Mansion, Yi Bai could do whatever he wanted.

But fortunately, Yi Zhou is thick-skinned and not a fool. Apart from drinking, he has no special hobbies, and he doesn't make trouble in the National Teacher's Mansion. This is why Yi Bai acquiesced, otherwise, how could Yi Bai easily let him go? He stepped half a step into the National Teacher's Mansion.After all, Yibai needs someone to drink all the wine that Yibai brews every year.

After standing for a while without seeing anything special, Yi Zhou walked outside. There was a brocade blanket at one end of the small couch that Yi Bai had been lying on before, and he pulled it over casually. past.

Then he was woken up by a knock on the door.

Yi Zhou opened his eyes suddenly, and found that it was already bright outside, and he took it easy to recall that he was in the National Teacher's Mansion.

"Who, it's so early in the morning that no one is allowed to sleep." Yi Zhou jumped off the couch, put on his shoes and socks to open the door, and met Jin Ou with an anxious face.

"It turned out to be Guard Jin, what's wrong?" Yi Zhou yawned.

Jin Ou looked at Yi Zhou, "Second Young Master stayed in the master's house last night?"

"Yes!" Yi Zhou said and pointed to the inside, "My brother is resting inside!"

Jin Ou had a strange expression, "Second Young Master, are you sure the Master is inside?"

Yi Zhou was startled, "What happened?"

Jin Ou said: "Master must get up at Yin time every day, but now it's time at Yin time, and there is still no movement. The subordinates suspect..."

After hearing this, Yi Zhou ran into the room without even thinking about it, and took a closer look, the mattress was messy, but there was no one on the bed. He walked over and felt the bed, and the bed was already cold, thinking that someone had left early.

When did the elder brother leave, he didn't even feel a little bit?

Yi Zhou rushed out immediately and looked at Jin Ou anxiously, "Have you looked everywhere?"

Jin Ou shook his head, "I haven't started looking yet." It was only now that he was sure that the master was really not in his room.

"Then why are you still standing there?" Yi Zhou yelled anxiously: "Hurry up and look for it, if you can't find it, I will chop you up!"

Jin Ou didn't dare to delay and immediately summoned people to search around. Yi Zhou's sleepiness was scared away, and he searched around the upper room round and round. Everyone added up and almost turned the Guoshi Mansion upside down. I didn't see Yi Bai either.

Jin Ou was in a hurry, "Master won't leave without saying goodbye, could it be that something really happened?" The master has a cleanliness habit, and everyone in the house knows that after he gets up every day, the mattress will be folded neatly, but Today was an exception, which meant that he left in a hurry, or maybe he didn't have the heart to do those trivial things. What kind of things made the master so anxious?

Yi Zhou also wanted to know what his father said to his eldest brother last night.

If you can't find anyone left or right, it's better to go back and ask for clarification before talking.

After taking a look at Jin Ou, Yi Zhou said: "You take people to continue looking, I'll go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion first." It's unknown if the elder brother really went to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Before Jin Ou could react, Yi Zhou had already rushed out of the gate of the National Teacher's Mansion, quickly mounted his horse and galloped towards the Prime Minister's Mansion.

However, when he arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, the result was that Yi Bai never came back.

Seeing his son's eyebrows burning with anxiety, Mrs. Xie was puzzled, "What's wrong with you?"

"Mother, where is my father?"

"Your father has gone to court." Xie said.

Yi Zhou cursed, he couldn't wait for Yi Zhuoming to come back, he rode his horse again, Yi Zhou returned to the National Teacher's Mansion, Jin Ou and the others were still looking for someone, besides the mansion, they also arranged many people to look for them outside, but Those people came back wave after wave and said that there was no whereabouts of the national teacher.

Yi Zhou stood under the apricot tree resentfully and paced back and forth. If he didn't see anyone sooner, he might really kill someone.

From the corner of the eye, he inadvertently glanced towards the direction of the wine cellar, his heart was filled with happiness for a moment, he remembered something, and immediately ran towards the wine cellar.

The door of the wine cellar was opened by someone at some point, and the smell of wine could be heard from inside from time to time.

Yi Zhou knew something was wrong when he sniffed it, and hurriedly walked inside, and sure enough, he saw a white shadow lying in the corner, it was the unconscious Yi Bai, and there were several wine jars placed in a mess beside them, all of which were opened passed.

"elder brother!"

Yi Zhou's eyes widened, shaking the people on the ground, his voice was louder and louder, "Brother, wake up!"

My brother likes to make wine, but he never drinks it. He said that wine can make people lose their minds.

Yi Zhou has always known this, so every time Yi Bai brews wine, he will be cheap, and he can drink as much as he comes.

Since when did my elder brother learn to drink?Or, did he just want to hangover and numb himself?
Yi Zhou couldn't think too much, bent down and put Yi Bai on his shoulders. After all, he was unconscious and unconscious, so he couldn't carry him out.

Yi Zhou glanced around, and finally moved Yi Bai to the wall to lean against, then squatted down and got him on his back.

After leaving the wine cellar, Yi Zhou shouted at the top of his voice, "Go get the doctor!"
