Rank One Princess Douxian Wang: Phoenix Palace Brocade

Chapter 464 Revealing the Secret of Awakening
Xu Jiatong stood up and was about to go to the main house when there was a faint rustling sound behind him.

At this moment, there were only Xu Jiatong and Cao Shi in the room. Xu Jiatong stopped and did not move at that moment. The voice... came from behind.

Xu Jiatong turned around slowly, Cao's uninjured hand pointed at her tremblingly, her eyes also opened, but her spirit was weak, the eyelids opened a little, then closed again, and could only Barely narrowed a crack.

"Jiatong..." Cao's throat was dry, because she was paralyzed, and those servants relieved her troubles, except for soup and medicine, they rarely gave her water.

Xu Jiatong hastily poured hot water from the small stove in the porch, and mixed it with the cold water at the side, until the water became warmer, and then brought it to Mrs. Cao.

"Grandmother, drink some water." Xu Jiatong held the back of Cao's head with one hand, put the edge of the bowl to Cao's mouth with the other, and carefully fed it little by little.

Mrs. Cao regained her strength a bit, took a few breaths, raised her injured hand with sticky fingers, and sobbed two lines of old tears, her hands were really useless.

"Grandmother, don't cry, your hand is broken, and I, the dumb lady, and Bi Shui can all be your hands in the future." Xu Jiatong felt pain in his heart.

Cao held back her tears and wiped away the tear stains on her face with her uninjured hand. She motioned Xu Jiatong to look at her burnt hand with her eyes.

"Inside, the key...behind the cabinet in the main room..." Mrs. Cao said these words intermittently, and with difficulty raised her hand to Xu Jiatong's eyes.

Could it be... Xu Jiatong opened her eyes wide and shook her head in horror. Cao Shi said just now that the key must be the key to the secret compartment of the main house. Could it be that the key is in her clenched fist?
Xu Jiatong and Cao Shi have been together for many years, and she can feel her intentions in Cao Shi's eyes and movements.

Could it be possible to ask her to take out the key?But Mrs. Cao's hand... must have been in the fire. Mrs. Li also discovered the hidden compartment and wanted to take the contents inside. Mrs. Cao fought desperately and burned her hand when she took the key. The key just burned in her palm.

"No, no, grandma, how can this be done? Let's wait for the old imperial doctor who will see you tomorrow, and then think about it." After Xu Jiatong finished speaking, he regretted it. After burning like this, I am afraid that even if the genius doctor came suddenly , and the only way to go is to cut open the flesh.

Mrs. Cao looked at her firmly: "There are so many people in the daytime... Hurry up, if...were discovered, you and I...just..." A layer of sadness gradually appeared in the old eyes.

That thing must be very important, even more important than life, that's why Mrs. Cao risked his life to keep the key and secret compartment.

At that time, Mrs. Li must have tried desperately to find out this secret. Mrs. Cao was older and weaker than Mrs. Li, but with the belief that they would die together, she finally put Mrs. Li to death, leaving her in the end. The fate of not being able to wake up so far.

There is no knife in this room, Xu Jiatong looked at the scissors in the sewing basket and shook his head vigorously: "Grandmother, no, if your wound gets worse, then..."

Cao's behavior, I don't know if it is considered to be exhausted and the light is turning back. Even if it is not, if the wound festers, Cao's age and his body are still so weak, maybe he really can't survive.

Cao slammed that hand against the wall, but looked at the scissors: "Give it to me, give it to me, if you still recognize me as a grandmother, give me the scissors."

Every word Cao said seemed to be squeezed out between her teeth. Seeing that Xu Jiatong was still shaking her head, Cao braced herself up and wanted to hit her head against the wall.

"You can't do it, I'll do it myself." Cao looked at Xu Jiatong who was crying like a tear, she hated iron and steel, "Why don't you look like your biological mother at all?"

Xu Jiatong couldn't care less about who her biological mother was, and who was her biological mother. She only knew that Cao's unstoppable bumping into the wall like this was not an option, as there was a possibility of death at any time.

Xu Jiatong closed his eyes, his hands shook like a sieve, he took the scissors, and in a few short steps, fell to the ground three times.She walked up to Cao Shi, turned her head away, closed her eyes, and handed the scissors in Cao Shi's direction.

Cao Shi took it, and Xu Jiatong suddenly felt a lightness in his hand, and let it hang down in a slump.She heard the sound of skin and flesh being broken, and Cao's voice suppressed because of the pain.

"Here, take it." Mrs. Cao put the bloody key on the side of the couch, covered her bloody hand, and leaned against the big pillow, all the strength had been exhausted just now.

"Grandmother." Xu Jiatong picked up the wound cloth left by the doctor, and hurriedly bandaged Cao's wound. The wound on the wounded hand was shocking, "Why are you bothering, what is more important than your life."

Fortunately, it was a flesh wound, which looked scary. As long as Mrs. Cao survived, the harm caused by this new injury would still be within the controllable range.

"Some things, it's time for you to know..." Cao Shi sighed, and asked Xu Jiatong to take the ginseng slices for her to swallow, "When I married your grandfather, I really felt that I wanted to be an ordinary woman. It was not until many years later that you were sent back to the ancestral house. At first I thought it was because they had something awkward and involved you that they would send you back when you were so young. I went to see you at that time and sent you here Someone gave me something, and I knew it was right after I saw it. It was something from the palace. Although I was only in the old palace at that time, I recognized these things even in my dreams. Jiatong, your biological mother is in Fenghuang In the palace, and in a high position..."

"The only ones who are close to your age are...you know that, don't you?" Cao's eyes were trembling. Although this was not the whole truth, she believed that it was almost the same.

Zhao Yuanshen... Xu Jiatong covered her mouth, how could it be possible, she turned out to be... She suddenly thought of Queen Wu's strangeness, and thought of Zhao Yuanshen's deliberate approach, how could it be like this?

Her past 17 years were all fake, and Zhao Yuanshen approached her for another purpose, perhaps to silence her in order to bury the truth.

Xu Jiatong seemed to hear the voice of his own heart breaking: "Who are those people in the dark?"

"This question has always been in my heart. Those people came to me in the second year after you came to Kunshan. I thought it was your biological mother who couldn't let you go and sent these people to protect you secretly. But I gradually No, their master is someone else... Either her old enemy, or only the king has such ability. But if it is the king, how is it possible, if he knows the truth, why doesn't he pursue you My mother, and I won't find out the person who replaced me." Cao's words were interrupted by a series of coughing sounds.
