The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 653: National Teacher (1)
She crumpled the paper into a ball, opened the bag and took out the clean clothes, enduring the pain to change the clothes on her body.

Inside the inn.The three people including Zhou Boyan and Hong Wei who came back half an hour ago all lay down with their clothes together, and had already fallen into a light sleep.

At dawn, the inn became lively, and the sound of people walking, talking and laughing came from time to time.

Zhou Boyan got up without any abnormality, had breakfast alone in the room, and began to think about the next plan.

After Hong Wei had breakfast, he greeted Zhou Boyan and went out.The secret guard who pretended to be an ordinary person staying in the hotel played a role in front of people, and stayed close to Zhou Boyan quietly.

In the middle of the night, Hong Wei was left at the inn to watch the wind, while Zhou Boyan took his secret guards to visit Zi Yi.

At this moment, Ziyi has taken care of herself properly, sitting on the edge of the kang, it seems that she is waiting for Zhou Boyan.Because the injury was serious, her complexion was not very good.Seeing Zhou Boyan, she pulled out the hairpin on her head and flicked the wick of the oil lamp, "Thank you for your rescue."

Zhou Boyan said, "It's nothing more than a little effort", and looked towards the window.It was only then that Ziyi blocked the window with a quilt.No wonder he didn't notice any light in the house when he was outside.

The masked guard put a bundle on the wooden box under the window and went out.

Zhou Boyan pointed to the bundle and said, "It contains some dry food, two roasted chickens, and six medicines. All the pharmacies outside are watched by people. These are medicines bought from other places. Not much, only enough for three days , take a decoction every morning and evening. I have something urgent and I have to leave this place tomorrow morning, so I can only help you here. The rest depends on your own ability."

"Thank you!" Ziyi said these two words, coughed twice in a low voice, and said, "Please help me get two buckets of water. There is no water in the water tank." Need water.According to her current situation, it is absolutely impossible to fetch water and eat by herself.

Zhou Boyan didn't need to do this, the hidden guard quickly helped to fetch water until the water tank was full.

The water problem was solved, and seeing that there was nothing wrong, Zhou Boyan said, "Let's leave now." He was about to leave.

"Wait." Ziyi stopped him, "I don't want the roster? I don't want to ask the truth?"

Zhou Boyan said indifferently, "I said before, whether you hand over the roster or not is entirely up to you. As for the truth, if you want to tell me, I will listen. If you don't want to say it, I won't force it."

Zi Yi was taken aback.In the conversation a few days ago, I thought that Zhou Boyan was just putting on a show, trying to trick her into telling the truth.Unexpectedly, Zhou Boyan not only saved her, but also took the opportunity to torture her without any intention.How could this be?Could it be that Zhou Boyan was really grateful for what she had done, and really wanted to help her get rid of the pursuit?

When she was in a daze, Zhou Boyan had already reached the door and was about to open it and go out.

She recovered, "Wait, I have something to tell you."

Zhou Boyan turned around and looked at her calmly, without any intention of urging her, just standing there.

"I don't know the truth you want to know. The master never mentioned the reason for getting rid of the two children. As for the matter of attacking your parents, at first, the master didn't seem to want their lives. He just wanted to arrest them." They were put under house arrest. However, things changed later. Zhou Su, you should recognize it. Before the incident, Zhou Su presented a secret letter to the master. After that, the master changed his mind and canceled the original plan. Originally, The order I received was to monitor your parents. After the original plan was cancelled, the master removed me from the new plan and ordered me to escort a casket..." She covered her mouth and coughed a few times in the middle of her sentence.

Zhou Boyan clenched his fists tightly because his hands were hidden in his wide sleeves so that no one else could see them.

Ziyi came back slowly, and continued to preach, "Order me to send it to Fengzhou. I felt something was wrong. I took the box out of Beijing in the morning, and came back quietly before closing the city gate. I have been hiding outside the eldest princess's mansion to observe, I found that the number of monitors around me had increased from two to eight. One of them was very familiar with me, so I avoided the others and talked to him. Only then did I know that the assassination of the three of your family was arranged that night. Your father told me Yes, I can't watch him die."

In the cold world that belonged to her, there appeared such a warm young man who smiled and rescued her, preventing the 12-year-old from dying with a stick.At that time, she was a humble little maid. Although she had been chosen by the master's minions, she was a dispensable existence in the eyes of the minions, and death was not a pity.Even if she did nothing wrong, a certain concubine with a bad temper must beat her to death to vent her anger.

It was him, the warm young man who made the concubine laugh with a few words and saved her life.From then on, she fell in love with that warm boy, day after day, year after year.She engraved his voice and smile into the depths of her mind, and she felt a burst of warmth every time she recalled it.As long as there is a chance, she always watches and steals him from afar.Sometimes she can't see him once a year, she feels disappointed, but she can't erase her liking for him no matter what.

She likes him, and likes him more and more, even though he has become a son-in-law.She dared not let others know about this liking, let alone let her master find out.She secretly aches for his pain and rejoices for his joy.He is the only warmth in her heart, how can she watch him die?

She sneaked into the princess mansion.At night, when outside watchers sneaked in, she alarmed them one by one, and the guards in Princess Ren's mansion discovered and killed them.Unexpectedly, a ninth person appeared, and she had to do it herself.She watched him and the eldest princess flee with their son in a hurry, and also saw a guard beside the emperor escorting them.Watching them go out of town gave her peace of mind.She worked day and night, rushing to Fengzhou to complete the task.Then, they tracked him down day and night, just to know if he was out of danger.

However, he died.

Every time he thought of the death of the person who made him feel warm, Ziyi felt angina in his chest and couldn't breathe.She raised her hand to cover her eyes, controlled her emotions, and said, "I can't give you the truth you want, but I can tell you a clue. National teacher, find him and interrogate him. The answer you want will be very close." Surface."

Something flashed through Zhou Boyan's mind, but he didn't catch it for a moment, "National Teacher?"

Ziyi nodded, "Yes, the national teacher. He is a Taoist priest who is respected by the master. The master has always called this Taoist priest the national teacher. I secretly checked the background of the national teacher, but the results were limited. I only know that he was 30 years ago. She used to be the Taoist priest of Yangming Temple outside Beijing, and her Taoist name was Mingji. It seems that your mother suffered from a strange disease when she was eleven or twelve years old. No matter whether it is an imperial doctor or a famous folk doctor, there is nothing that can do anything about your mother's illness. It seems that It dragged on for a long time, and finally this Daoist Mingji appeared. I don’t know how the Daoist Mingji cured him. Anyway, your mother’s illness has been cured. The late emperor thought that Daoist Mingji was a capable person, and the master would even Ji is enshrined as a fairy."

Zhou Boyan had never heard of a strange illness that happened to the eldest princess when she was eleven or twelve years old. "What does the Daoist Mingji you mentioned have anything to do with the death of my parents?"
