slave like jade

Chapter 82 Anemia
The knife was not found in the cave, and Yu Ruyan thought that maybe the knife had returned to the bungalow after the guard of the palace searched, after all, it was too cold outside in early spring.

Yu Ruyan quickly came to her small one-story house, but after she opened the door with joy on her face, she found that there was no knife in the one-story house, and she panicked!
Where did the knife go?He still has injuries?You won't be caught and taken away!
Yu Ruyan's heart was in a mess, but at this moment, Chen's mother next door came over, winked at her and said, "You haven't had breakfast so early in the morning, why don't you come to my house to eat together, it just so happens that you are new Steamed buns."

Yu Ruyan saw the signal in Chen Ma's eyes, and immediately understood in her heart, and followed Chen Ma to her house without stopping.

Open the door and go in, the knife is really inside, but Uncle Chen is not in the room.

Xiao Dao leaned against the bed with a gloomy expression, looking in a trance as if he had lost his soul, Yu Ruyan entered the room and didn't even answer him twice, until she sat in front of him, stretched out her hand and shook him in front of him but suddenly Surprised, as if he had been greatly frightened, he stared at Yu Ruyan in a daze, and after a long time he came back to his senses and called out to his sister in a panic.

Yu Ruyan had never seen Xiaodao in a state of despair before, so she thought he was frightened by what happened last night, and quickly comforted him in a soft voice: "It's okay, Xiaodao, it's all over, Brother An was also rescued by me, now Stay well in Wuwei Medical Center, don't worry."

As if Xiaodao didn't hear her words, he stared blankly at the nothingness in front of him, frowning tightly, as if he had fallen into a predicament.

Chen Ma went to the kitchen outside to make breakfast, and there was no one else in the room, Yu Ruyan asked softly, "Why are you here? What happened after last night?"

Hearing this, Xiaodao's expression froze, as if he had woken up from a terrible nightmare, he stared blankly at Yu Ruyan for a long time with his dark eyes, his lips moved with difficulty, as if he had thousands of words in his heart but didn't know how to say them generally.

"What's the matter with you, Xiaodao, are you sick?" From entering the door to now, Yu Ruyan obviously felt the strange change of Xiaodao, she stretched out her hand to touch Xiaodao's forehead worriedly, but she didn't expect him to dodge all of a sudden .

In the past, as long as she stretched out her hand, the knife would definitely touch her hand and act coquettishly, but today...

Yu Ruyan's outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, at a loss, feeling a sense of loss in her heart for no reason.

The next second Xiaodao came back to his senses, firmly grasped the hand she was about to withdraw, and said eagerly: "Sister, I'm sorry, I was confused just now."

After finishing speaking, his expression returned to normal, he gently rubbed his face in her palm as usual, and told Yu Ruyan what happened last night.

It turned out that last night after Xiaodao hid in the cave, he was followed and discovered by people secretly sent by Mu Ziyue. He was about to go back and report to Xiaodao. His opponent, seeing that he was about to go to the front to report the news, Xiaodao was in a hurry. At this moment, Uncle Chen appeared and killed him with a single blow.

Although the man died under Uncle Chen's knife, Uncle Chen was still worried about leaving the knife alone in the garden, and after the fight just now, the wound wrapped by the knife opened again, so Uncle Chen persisted. I dragged him half-bundled and half-dragged to my own house...

Hearing Xiaodao finished speaking, Yu Ruyan's eyes showed deep doubts—what is the relationship between Uncle Chen and Xiaodao, and why did he risk his life to save Xiaodao again and again?

Now that he's not in the house, he probably went to deal with the body of the follower!

Xiaodao saw Yu Ruyan looking at him thoughtfully, with a flustered look on his face, and suddenly yelled: "Oh, I haven't eaten for a day, I'm so hungry. I smell the smell of steamed buns, sister, help me quickly Come in a few."

Yu Ruyan was full of suspicion, but there was no way to know right now, so she had to put it aside temporarily, thinking about how to quietly send the knife out of the house, and send him to Yue Yu's place before she could rest assured.

While eating steamed buns, Uncle Chen came back, saw Yu Ruyan was slightly taken aback, and before she could open her mouth, she said in a muffled voice, "Tell me where he lives outside his residence, and I can find a way to send him out, don't worry about it." .”

Uncle Chen did what he said, and Yu Ruyan received the news from him in the afternoon that the knife had arrived at Wuwei Medical Center safely.

The apricot blossoms in the okra yard are blooming very well, and the white and pink ones are really beautiful.There was a beauty couch under the flower tree. An Lan half-lyed on the couch, covered with a thin blanket, and half-closed her eyes to listen to Yuan'er's report about the garden last night.

Yuan'er reported to her in detail without missing a word from the beginning to the end. After An Lan listened, she sat up slowly, letting the thin blanket on her body fall to the ground and ignoring it, her gentle eyes suddenly sparkled!

"The assassin must have been in the palace at the time, but it's a pity that Miss Mu was too eager to get it done." An Lan took two sips of the black chicken soup handed over by Yuan'er, and said slowly.

"How does the master know?" Yuan'er really admired her master more and more, and felt that nothing could be hidden from her eyes.

An Lan curled her lips into a smile when she heard the words, and she couldn't help but feel a little bit of pride in her expression, and said sarcastically, "I think that Mu Ziyue wanted to take the assassin and the lowly maid together in front of His Highness, but she didn't like it." I'm a bit stupid, not only I'm stupid, but I also think of my opponent as stupid as myself. That bitch has always had the most tricks, just think about it, even if she really has a connection with the assassin, she won't be so stupid as to stuff him in her room Waiting for Mu Ziyue to come and catch the turtle in the urn."

Yuan'er suddenly came to a daze, and asked curiously: "Then according to the master's guess, is that lowly servant girl really an accomplice to that assassin?"

An Lan's brows tightened, she frowned and thought about it, and said coldly, "I don't know this yet, but I hope it's true!" After finishing speaking, she frowned, then lay down and closed her eyes to rest.

While talking, the little girl at the door came in softly and reported something to Yuan Er in a low voice. He reprimanded: "Don't pay attention to her, how many times have you been here, it's really cheeky to drive her away and come back again!"

Her muttering came into An Lan's ears, and seeing the little girl was about to be chased away, An Lan suddenly thought of something, sat up with a 'huh' and said, "Wait a minute, let her in!"

Looking at the woman in front of her, with just one glance, An Lan could clearly feel the difference in her this time——

In the past, every time she entered the okra yard, she always lowered her eyebrows and pleasing to the eye, carefully bowing her head down, but this time, she stood gracefully in front of An Lan, with a natural and casual expression, neither humble nor overbearing, and there was a hint of love in her flickering eyes. Excited.

An Lan's eyes lit up.

"Slave Yan Fei greets Auntie."

Chen Yanfei's body was as delicate as a willow, and she was about to bend down, but An Lan stopped her. She looked her up and down with half-closed eyes, and said with a gentle smile, "Sister, what do you want me to do when you come here?"

"Did Auntie sleep well last night?" Yan Fei asked obediently.

An Lan raised her brows, the smile on her face grew stronger, and she said slowly: "Last night, the mansion was very lively, probably not many people could sleep, my sister probably stayed up all night too!"

Yan Fei didn't hide anything, Lingling said with a smile: "Auntie is really good at predicting things. I did have a busy night last night. Fortunately, I got a lot of rewards, so I came to look for Auntie early in the morning."

After all, she took out her belongings and showed them in front of An Lan. She took a closer look, but there were a few blood-stained cloth strips.

An Lan understood like a mirror in her heart, but Yuan Er said with a confused and disgusted face: "It's so disgusting to bring these dirty things to the master so early in the morning!"

Chen Yanfei smiled indifferently: "Sister Yuan'er, don't dislike it, this is something I have worked so hard to get."

An Lan smiled in satisfaction, squinted her eyes and said to Yuan'er: "Yes, don't underestimate these strips of cloth, which were left by the assassin last night when he bandaged the wound. Look carefully, the fabric and embroidery of this cloth It looks like it was torn from the woman's clothes, if you can follow the clues, are you afraid that you won't find the insider who is in the palace and the assassin's accomplice?"

Before Yuan'er recovered from the shock, Yan Fei was convinced: "Auntie is really smart, nothing can pass your eyes."

An Lan looked at Yan Fei in front of her with a full face of admiration, and said with a smile: "My sister has made a great contribution this time, but—"

She changed the tone and said coldly: "My sister, why don't you ask His Highness for credit for this strong evidence, or hand it over to Miss Mu. The incident in the garden last night is directly related to them. You came to me, but I don't know much about it." I understand what you mean." After that, his eyes flickered slightly and he looked at her for a moment.

Chen Yanfei was stunned, his brows were frowned, and his expression showed some embarrassment——

In the end, this matter involved his parents, if His Highness or the Mufu knew that his father helped Yu Ruyan to cover the assassin together, they might lose their lives.

Most importantly, her purpose is not to expose the assassin, but——

She let out a sigh of relief, a cold light flashed in her eyes, so fast that no one could notice it, and said with a hearty smile: "You don't speak dark words in front of Ming people, and my aunt is so smart, why can't she see through the little thoughts of slaves?" ? The servant doesn't care who the assassin is connected with, but only wants to use these evidences to make a small deal with my aunt."

An Lan had already guessed what she was thinking, her eyes dimmed, but she smiled kindly on her face, and waved her hand to let Yuan'er accept the cloth slip, she said firmly, "Deal!"

"Doesn't Auntie ask the servants what they want?" Seeing An Lan's straightforwardness, Chen Yanfei couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

"Heh, I can't even guess this thought. What kind of ability do you have to be the head of the palace? However, let me tell you in advance that I can only help you enter the Yunsong Courtyard. As for what you will do later, it depends on your own ability." .”

Hearing this, Chen Yanfei was overjoyed all the time, and couldn't help bending over to thank her: "Thank you, Auntie, for your help."

"However, there is one thing I don't understand!" The breeze blew, and An Lan reached out to catch the white petals that fell from her head, and said in a calm tone: "If I remember correctly, these fabrics are similar to the dress that your good sister Xiaoqing wore yesterday. It matches exactly."

After a pause, she looked at Chen Yanfei's slightly changed face and continued: "You should clearly understand what the consequences would be if His Highness or Mu Ziyue knew about these fabrics, I'm afraid... You have always been on good terms with her and love her like a sister, why did you want to make such a murderous move behind your back this time?"

Chen Yanfei's face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Auntie, don't laugh at me, I'm afraid there is no woman in this house who doesn't want her to die."

Seeing the ruthless look on her face, An Lan's eyes flickered, a threatening cold light flashed past, and she said with a calm smile on her face, "Sister, what do you mean by that?"

Chen Yanfei's big round eyes were stern, and he sneered, "If she doesn't die, even if she inherits His Highness's body, she won't be able to enter His Highness's heart, so what's the point?"

After Chen Yanfei left, An Lanfu lay down on the couch again, and Yuan'er gently helped her shoulders, and said unconvinced: "I haven't become a master yet, but my tone is very big, I am not small, and I want to bully you." His Highness's heart is really arrogant."

An Lan seemed to have fallen asleep, and didn't say a word to Yuan'er's words.

Yuan'er knew that she was not asleep, so she couldn't help but anxiously said: "Master, it was hard to bring down Chai Ziluoyuan, and now there is another person spying on His Highness, who is more ambitious than Ziluoyuan, master, you should think carefully Make up your mind to prevent her from succeeding."

The eyes of the person on the couch opened suddenly, their eyes were icy cold, and he said coldly: "Don't worry, I'm worried that this palace is too quiet recently. If there is an extra powerful aunt suddenly in the mansion, who will attract everyone's attention , then—we won’t be so conspicuous in what we do.”

Early the next morning, Yu Ruyan left the house to visit Xiao Dao and An Ge in Wuwei Medical Center.

The arrow wound of Xiaodao was no longer serious after Yue Yu re-dressed it with medicine, but the afterbirth on Brother An's body had been stuck and could not be removed, which made Yue Yu troubled.

In the end, he thought of a way out of desperation, and started to do it after careful discussion with Yu Ruyan.

Yue Yu used silver needles to seal the blood vessels connecting the afterbirth to the body. The afterbirth survived without the body's blood supply, gradually dried up in the body, and finally fell off into pieces, leaving the body to be excreted.

The acupuncture process was extremely difficult. In order to seal off the blood vessels, the silver needles had to stay on Ange until the afterbirth fell out. For half a month, Ange had silver needles inserted into his lower abdomen day and night, and Yue Yu also In order to prevent the silver needle from falling off, he has been standing by her side to watch over her non-stop.

Finally, after half a month of hard work, the afterbirth in Ang's body was finally separated from his body, freeing him from the worry of life!

When Yue Yu was helped out of the room by Qingcha, Yu Ruyan and Xiaodao were guarding the door anxiously. The morning light shone on Yue Yu's pale and transparent face with a faint brilliance, and his clear eyes were full of fatigue at the moment. Color, walk with the help of tea.

Seeing his weak and exhausted appearance, Yu Ruyan was full of gratitude and guilt, his body was already in trouble, if it wasn't because he promised her to cure Brother An, he wouldn't have worked so hard!
Before Yu Ruyan could express her gratitude, Yue Yu already knew her heart, smiled at her, and said with difficulty: "Successful, let's go in and see her!"

Hearing this, Yu Ruyan was stunned, and in the next second she couldn't stop cheering. She ran into the room and saw Brother An lying quietly on the bed. Although his face was as tired as Yue Yu's, his eyes Li was also filled with uncontrollable joy.

"Princess, thank you!" An Ge held Yu Ruyan's hand for a long time and refused to let go, thanking with tears.

Yu Ruyan tidied her hair in front of her forehead with distress, and said with a smile: "Silly girl, what are you thanking me for? It's all thanks to Mr. Yue and yourself. It's really hard work for you to persist for so many days."

The illness is gone.Brother An hasn't been in such a happy mood for a long time, she didn't care about fatigue, she sat up and pulled Yu Ruyan and said seriously: "Princess, Mr. Yue is so skilled in medicine, why don't you let him take a look... "

She didn't say the following words, but Yu Ruyan knew what she wanted to say, she couldn't help shaking her head, and said desolately: "No need. I think the master spent so much effort on me back then, but he couldn't help me. Well, why bother Mr. Yue to worry about me, his body is already weak..."

Brother An thought of the indifferent treatment of Yu Ruyan by everyone in the Qi Kingdom, and thought that the princess was carrying the crime of "unlucky person" to spend the day in hardship, but the princess who is obviously precious is worse than the maidservant!

"Princess, you can't be sure about everything. Maybe Mr. Yue knows how to cure the anemia! If your disease is cured, you will cry like a normal person. I believe that no one will dare to call you an ominous person in the future." .”

In order to persuade Yu Ruyan, Brother An was so anxious that he said something wrong, and when he realized that he had said something wrong in his impatience, he quickly pleaded guilty to Yu Ruyan.

"Princess... the servant didn't do it on purpose!"

"It's nothing!" Yu Ruyan helped her to lie down again, her eyes were calm without any waves, and she said in a calm tone: "I was born without tears, this matter is no secret, and my father didn't deliberately cover it up for me. Over the past few years, because I have no tears, everyone regards me as an ominous person, insults and beats me, and ridicules me. I have experienced numbness, and after the numbness has become a habit, why should I care about it!"

The bright sun in early spring cast halos on her body through the window lattice, and her thin figure was submerged in the halos, feeling ethereal and unreal.Brother An felt the coldness of her fingers, and felt a slight pain in his heart, tears almost came out——

"Princess······"

"Take care of yourself, I'll see you again when I have time!" Yu Ruyan smiled and patted her hand, then turned and left gently.

After walking out of Brother An's house, she thought about it, turned around and walked towards the backyard. Qingcha was guarding the door of the backyard. When she saw her coming in, she snorted angrily and turned her head away to ignore her.

Seeing that she was going to her young master's room, Qingcha stepped forward to stop her, and said coldly: "Young master is so tired that he is about to collapse, you should hurry up and don't bother him again!"

"Let her in!" Yue Yu's weak and labored voice came from inside the room.

Qing Cha glared at her angrily, and in his heart he didn't want her to go in and disturb his young master's rest, but Yue Yu didn't dare not listen to what he said, so he withdrew his hand unwillingly.

Yu Ruyan hesitated to move forward, but thinking of the worry in her heart, she couldn't help pushing the door open and going in.

The slightly drowsy room was lit with tranquilizing incense, and the room was very simple, except for a long table in the middle and a warm couch by the window, the rest was only a whole wall of books on the east wall.

In the early spring weather, there was still a charcoal fire burning in the room, Yue Yu was leaning on the couch with a thick quilt, and a black porcelain square cup was placed in front of him, which was steaming, and an unpleasant smell of medicine diffused in the room .

When she entered, Yue Yu happened to be drinking medicine from a prescription cup. He seemed to be startled by the wind that leaked in when he opened the door. He suddenly coughed violently, the medicine cup in his hand trembled, and the thick black soup spilled out, drenching him all over. A large piece of the snow-white cotton robe was immediately stained.

Ignoring the stains on his body, Yue Yu arched his body and coughed heart-piercingly, his pale face flushed red, his body curled up in discomfort, his hands clasped his front lapel tightly, and he spat out with a 'poof'. A mouthful of blood.

Yu Ruyan turned pale with shock, and was about to step forward, when Qingcha rushed in, pushing her away who wanted to help, and said angrily, "Go away, don't get in the way."

Qing Cha stepped forward, and ignored the blood stains at the corner of Yue Yu's mouth, quickly took out a bottle of medicine from the drawer under the warm couch and fed it to Yue Yu's mouth, turned around and opened the needle bag, and picked out a thick silver needle. The needle was handed over to Yue Yu, with an extremely anxious and heartbroken expression.

"master······"

After taking the medicine, Yue Yu's cough seemed to be reduced a bit, but his face was dark and purple, and he described it as being in pain. Qingcha hurriedly tore open the front of his clothes, and he himself took the silver needle and pierced his chest without hesitation— —

"Ah..." A cry came from Yu Ruyan's mouth, and Yue Yu's hand froze, and seeing Qingcha, he turned around and glared at her fiercely, saying angrily, "Hurry up, don't It’s all about bluffing here, adding to the chaos..."

"Clear tea, don't be unreasonable!" The next moment, the silver needle was removed from his chest, and Yue Yu's face suddenly looked better. He sat up with difficulty to close his clothes, and said to the panicked Yu Ruyan with embarrassment: " Did it scare you?"

Yu Ruyan stared blankly at him with a pale face. She had only heard that he was ill, but she didn't expect it to be so serious.She stared at him blankly, the respect in her heart welled up——

I am so weak and still insist on seeing the poor people every day. This kind of compassion and generosity is really commendable.

Thinking of him dragging such a body by An Ge's bed without sleep for half a month, Yu Ruyan felt more and more guilty towards him, and couldn't say a word of gratitude.

Seeing that Yue Yu had settled down, Qingcha tidied up the couch, and then changed Yue Yu into clean clothes. Seeing this, Yu Ruyan hurried forward to help him change together.

I don't know if it's because he has dealt with medicinal herbs or drank medicinal herbs all year round, Yue Yu's clothes have a faint fragrance of medicinal herbs.When Yu Ruyan was helping him straighten his sleeves, she accidentally touched his hand, and she felt a chill in the tentacles, which made her heart skip a beat.

Yue Yu looked at her and smiled slightly, and said slowly: "Thank you, I hope I didn't scare you just now."

Yu Ruyan was so ashamed of guilt, she stood there with her head down, and said in a low voice, "Young master, how can you say thank you to me? It was because I accidentally entered the house and brought in the wind that I let you... Is it better?"

Yue Yu smiled elegantly, and said indifferently: "How can I blame you, I have an old problem, I have been like this since I came out of the mother's womb, I can't blame anyone."

Thinking of him pricking herself, Yu Ruyan felt a pang of sadness in her heart, and said distressedly: "My lord's medical skills are extraordinary, can he cure my illness?"

"Doctors often can't heal themselves." He smiled bitterly, suddenly thought of something, his face became serious, looked at Yu Ruyan and said in a deep voice: "I'm sorry, although I saved Brother An's life, I can't... ·”

Before she could speak, Yu Ruyan already understood the meaning of his words, her heart sank with a 'thump'——
