Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 218 Take off your veil

The night is cold, the windows are cold, and there is a cold wind leaking.The seat next to me and the other half of the pillow have already been blown cold by the wind because there is no one there.

The coldness brought Yin Haochen back to his sanity.

Everything is empty, quietly suffering.

The pain of defeat made Yin Haochen feel very disappointed. Is he used to having another person sleeping next to him?Now when I woke up from the nightmare and wanted to catch someone, I realized that a person was so lonely in the silent night.

Habits are really a blind poison!

When you get used to a person, she is like air and white water. When she is there, you can't feel her presence, but once she is gone, he feels that nothing is complete, so uneasy, Panic like lost a lot.

Is there no cure for this poison called "habit" after addiction?

Never thought that Yin Haochen would be infected with such a poison!
Sighing self-deprecatingly, thinking back to what happened on the cliff that night, he knew that he was wrong, wrong outrageously!
Under the circumstances at that time, what he should consider was how to save people!But he didn't think about how to save Niannian at all, but was swayed by Luo Zhanghua's words, and did something he regretted!

The fist of grief hit the couch, and the bed board made a loud noise.

He clearly knew that Zhou Shizi would not let Jiu Ge have an accident no matter what.In the end, his woman was actually saved by Prince Zhou!
Yin Haochen, Yin Haochen, why are you like this...

Another punch and hammer landed on the couch, his body trembling in embarrassment.

Because of the loud noise of these two fists, the servant on duty hurried over. Seeing Yin Haochen's pained appearance, he didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he had to tell the old housekeeper of Chenwang Mansion about it.

And in the palace, Baili Ziru, who had been poisoned by the ghost poppy and had blushed due to the detoxification, overheard the two people's words, and felt that this was a good opportunity to get close to Yin Haochen, so she put on a black veil, Disguised as a black phoenix, sneaked into Yin Haochen's bedroom at the darkest hour before dawn...

The next day, a piece of news came out of Prince Chen's mansion, which shocked the market.It is said that the side concubine of Chen Wang was sent flying by the palm of Chen Wang last night, not to mention her broken bones, and was driven back to her mother's house by Chen Wang.

The common people ridiculed one after another, this side concubine of Chen Wang, who wanted to climb into the bed after becoming such a shameful person, it would be no wonder if she didn't get kicked out!
The news spread quickly, saying that Zhao Qian, the mother of Prince Chen's side concubine and the main wife of Feng Guo's Great General's Mansion, went to Prince Chen's mansion to seek justice for her daughter. The guards drove Zhao Qian away.

Yin Haochen is still drinking heavily.

He stopped going to the wine shop, but drank his sorrows in the study of Prince Chen's Mansion.

Seeing the military books on the table turned into drinks, the old butler of the palace couldn't stand it anymore. After thinking about it, thinking that Baili Jiuge and the princess would not come back, then he could only continue to drink. Find a flower of interpretation for the prince.

I heard that the new head musician of Fangfei Pavilion, Miss Xiaorui, is knowledgeable, sensible, and understanding, and she is still an upright lady, so the old butler went to Fangfei Pavilion in person, gave the madam a lot of money, and invited Miss Xiaorui to the Prince Chen's mansion. play music.

In the study room, Xiaorui was dressed lightly, playing the pipa noisily, as if the room was full of pearls and jade rolling by, it was very melodious.The maidservants of the Prince Chen's Mansion were fascinated by what they heard.

Only Yin Haochen was still drowning his worries with wine, as if he was in another world.

The sound of the pipa is constantly changing, the small bridge is flowing for a while, the gold and iron horses are for a while, and the room is full of jewels and jade. The use of technology and emotion is extremely superb.

Just when the maidservants were about to applaud and praise, a wine jar was smashed to the ground, and the fragments splashed on the side of Xiaorui's shoes amidst the loud noise.

She was splashed with wine, and she was so frightened that the pipa fell to the ground. She quickly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "My lord... Please spare my life, my lord."

"Get lost, my lord!" Yin Haochen yelled, and Xiaorui was so frightened that he picked up the pipa and ran out, even the maidservants were so scared that they knelt on the ground.

The big rough hand was holding the mouth of a wine jar tightly, and cracks spread.

He hates, he regrets, his mind is full of broken shadows of Wu Niannian... the tears she shed when she fell off the cliff, Cheng Huan's sad smile under him before she left...

Those countless fragments, put together and scattered, scattered and put together again...

"Go and call the princess, go and call the princess!"

Yin Haochen yelled violently, even though he knew that Wu Niannian was missing and might have committed suicide, he still yelled crazily.

"Go! Go quickly! Bring Nian Nian to me, hurry up!"

The wine jar exploded, and the room was full of bangs. The frightened maidservants crawled out one by one, crawled to the feet of the old butler, and grabbed his trouser legs for help.

The old housekeeper felt distressed and rushed into the study.Another wine jar was thrown in front of him, and he was almost deterred.

He tried to persuade him, but Yin Haochen didn't give him time at all, he roared and vented like crazy, until he threw the butler out, and drank alone in the cold room...

These days continued for a few more days, when everyone in the palace couldn't stand it any longer, Yin Haochen suddenly regained his composure, tidied up his clothes, and went to the palace to meet Yin Haoyi.

Then, he received an order from Yin Haoyi to go to the border with Zhou State to control the flood.

Although the housekeeper was a little puzzled by Yin Haochen's hasty business trip, it was a good thing to think that the prince could return to his previous state.

Before leaving, Yin Haochen didn't explain anything, and set off with some people.

He just wanted to leave the imperial capital and use business to divert his attention.And Brother Huang, after all, is still his elder brother, if he can do anything for Brother Huang, let him do it...

At this moment, in the high sky, the Kunshan Snow Phoenix flew gracefully.

Baili Jiuge and Mo Li looked at the vast expanse of rivers and mountains hand in hand. On the horizon, the dry and cracked yellow land and crumbling houses gradually emerged.

Their destination is approaching.

From here, one can also clearly see the side of the Shang Kingdom, where there are greenery and water colors everywhere, and a lot of water surrounds and submerges fertile fields and farmhouses...

Baili Jiuge was startled.wait!Why does it feel like there is a flood in the country of Shang?

"Mo Li, what's going on?" She pointed over.

Mo Li said that although they had been on their way for the past two days, before leaving, he had already heard from Qiu Hang that because of the continuous heavy rain on the border of the Shang Kingdom in the past few days, the aqueduct was washed away, so they brought The people on the border of the Shang Kingdom were also suffering from floods.

Baili Jiuge was very unhappy about this.

Across a river, one side is flooded and the other side is dry, what a shame!If Dashang can share the resources of that river with Zhou Guo, it won't hurt both sides.

In the afternoon, they reached the famine zone.

Mo Li didn't care about taking a rest, so he asked Yuying to put Baili Jiuge first, and he himself took Yufeng, summoned several officials who had come to rescue the disaster earlier, and after reprimanding them, reassigned them to work and ordered Several county magistrates with a radius of hundreds of miles opened warehouses for relief, and contacted Qiuhang for the relief food and grass.

In a small courtyard with poor conditions, Baili Jiuge drank some anti-fetal medicine, massaged his lower abdomen with internal force for a while, and then went to the street to look for Moli.

She really didn't want him to be busy and toiled, and she always felt that compared to his patient, she, a pregnant woman, was more able to bear the toil.

Walking through the alleys and fertile fields along the way, Baili Jiuge was relieved to see that the rioters had already rushed over to receive the relief food, but he also knew that the food and grass would eventually run out.Only by solving the problem in essence can it be solved once and for all.

It would be great if Dashang was willing to bring the water from that river...

As I was walking, I saw an old woman on the opposite side, holding her scrawny grandson in her arms, staggering to get food and grass.

Baili Jiuge saw them and was about to help them, but the old woman's physical strength reached the limit, she limped and fell to the ground.

"Old lady!" Baili Jiuge strode over.

A woman suddenly walked out of the alley, rushed in front of Baili Jiuge, knelt down, and handed a piece of cake in her hand to the old woman.

"Eat something first, don't worry, I saw the relief food and grass brought by Zhou Shizi, there are a lot of them, everyone has a share."

The old woman took the dry biscuit with emotion, broke off a large piece and gave it to the grandson in her arms. The boy was so hungry that he started to gobble it up, saying, "Thank you, thank you big sister."

"You don't need to thank me." She replied softly, only then did she see Baili Jiuge.

The moment the eyes met, the woman's eyes froze, a veil covered her face, and her expression could not be seen.But Baili Jiuge froze.

"Your voice..." Baili Jiuge was speechless in surprise, "You, who are you... Are you..."

"Nine Songs!"

The unexpected voice called Baili Jiuge.

She was startled again.Yin Haochen?How could he be here? !

Turning his face to look, what he saw was still the cold black clothes, and the turquoise on his waist was always so dignified.Only that face, twisted with pain and decadence after a hangover, made Baili Jiuge very uncomfortable to see.

He's drinking again!
Not in the mood to ask this, Baili Jiuge said: "Why did you come here, this is Zhou Guo."

"This king... is ordered by the emperor to deal with the flood."

Baili Jiuge was surprised: "It was you? Then why didn't you stay with Dashang, but came here..." Thinking of something, he said angrily: "Yin Haochen, don't tell me, you are here to see I just came here!"

"My king..." No, it's not what Jiu Ge said.

He didn't know why he wanted to come to Zhou Guo for a look, and because he came all the way, he realized that there was a river across the river, and the conditions on the two banks were so different.

Before that, he never knew that the big merchants would not allow the people of the Zhou Kingdom to use the river water. Is such a ruthless thing, in the eyes of the emperor, justified?

"Yin Haochen..." Why didn't he speak? Did she hit the mark?

Baili Jiuge was even more annoyed, just about to scold, but felt that Yin Haochen's eyes were very strange, as if he had fallen into his own world.

At this moment, slight footsteps sounded, Baili Jiuge turned his head, and saw that it was the masked woman who was about to leave quietly.

"Stop!" It wasn't Baili Jiuge who stopped her, but Yin Haochen.

He didn't know what was wrong with him. When he caught sight of that figure from the corner of his eye, his voice had already come out first.

The woman had no choice but to stop, her back turned to Yin Haochen, her hands hanging by her sides inadvertently grabbed the hem of her clothes, she seemed a little nervous.

"Turn around and let me have a look."

Hearing this, Baili Jiuge wanted to talk, but now he chose to keep silent.

The woman turned around timidly, her face was covered with a veil, her eyes were drooping, and she couldn't find a place to focus.

She was covered in white all over her body, her long hair was draped over her shoulders, and she was terribly white.Only now did Baili Jiuge realize that she was actually wearing a mourning dress!
"You!" Baili Jiuge couldn't help exclaiming.

In the blink of an eye, a black shadow flashed across, Rao Jiuge did not expect that Yin Haochen would suddenly attack the woman, raised his hand to hold her wrist, and dragged her away.

The woman trembled and shook her head, but she still couldn't hold back Yin Haochen's momentum, so she had to be dragged by him into an alley.

The old woman behind shouted: "What are you going to do to your old benefactor, let her go!"

Baili Jiuge came back to his senses, and hurriedly leaned over to comfort him: "Grandma, don't worry, they know each other."

"Recognize, recognize?"

"Well, I know it." As early as when the woman spoke, he had already heard her voice, and now that Yin Haochen was there, he naturally didn't intervene.

Baili Jiuge helped the old woman up, then picked up her grandson, handed it to her, and helped the grandson and grandson to walk steadily.

"Grandma, don't worry about them, I'll take you to get relief food right now."

The old woman was moved and nodded her head again and again, and then realized: "Girl, you don't look like a disaster victim here, did you come here with Prince Zhou to help the disaster?"

"Yes, he is my husband-in-law."

"Msg, Mrs.?"

The old woman was stunned. Under Baili Jiuge's bright smile, she couldn't recover for a long time...

In that alley just now, the narrow space can only accommodate two people.Just like at this moment, the veiled woman in mourning was confined between Yin Haochen and the wall.

Heavy panting, like burning flames, all poured on her face.She dodged her eyes timidly, not daring to look directly into Yin Haochen's eyes.

"Take off your veil." Yin Haochen said in a deep voice, his voice seemed to be very excited, but also seemed to be full of pain.

The woman shook her head, her eyes full of fear.

Then, she moved her steps, her back pressed against the wall, trying to move...

She wants to escape?
Even subtle movements cannot escape Yin Haochen's sharp eyes.One hand was still clasped on the woman's wrist, his eyes sank, and the other hand was raised, pulling off the veil.

The white veil was like a snow lotus petal, slowly falling between the two, and the moment it landed, Yin Haochen hugged her tightly.

"Why did you have to leave, when you were in Liang Guo, why did you have to leave!"

The voice was like a broken mess, and it sounded so distressing.Feeling that the person in his arms wanted to retreat, Yin Haochen hugged her even tighter, not knowing how much he was shaking.

Suddenly realizing something again, he hastily let go of her, and grabbed her wrist which he had pinched for a long time just before him.There were red marks on her fair wrist.

Yin Haochen felt a pain in his heart, and he didn't know what was wrong, so he lowered his head and breathed on the red wrist, thinking that he could reduce her pain.

This behavior made her even more timid and uneasy, "My lord, please let me go..."

Yin Haochen didn't reply for a long time, until the red mark on her wrist completely disappeared, he sighed deeply: "Nian Nian, this lord...is wrong. This lord owes you too much and cannot be repaid, so, can you... Give me a chance."

"My lord..." She shook her head, her eyes were no longer as clear as before, but were stained with many muddy colors.

"My lord, I just came back to my hometown on the border of Dashang, and I came here unknowingly... The Wu Niannian that the lord said is dead..."

Yin Haochen's heart shook violently.At the beginning, the bloody coat she left him, the words "the future will be indefinite", is this the meaning? !

He said sadly: "This king knows about your life experience."

Wu Niannian was shocked.

"My lord... in the Zangshu Pavilion in the imperial capital, I found out about the Yanling family. The person the emperor really wants to kill, Nian Nian, is you, isn't it?"

Wu Niannian murmured miserably: "I didn't expect to meet the prince here today, does the prince... want to hand over Niannian to Emperor Zhaoyi?"

"This king won't!" He grabbed Wu Niannian's hand and clasped her five fingers tightly, "The emperor has no way, and the government and the public have long complained... In the past, this king obeyed him, but now... Your crime is not worth your life."

Wu Niannian said quietly: "Because I was alone, the whole family was slaughtered, but I was the last one alive. Sometimes, in my dreams, I would dream of them getting up from the river of blood and crawling towards me , looking for my life."

"That's a dream, Nian Nian, that's a dream." Yin Haochen emphasized, his voice increased involuntarily, "Brother Huang has sent people to search around to see if there are any survivors in the Yanling family. Put yourself in that danger."

He didn't notice that his tone seemed to be pleading: "Nian Nian, give me another chance, come back to me, let me take care of you and protect you. Live a good life in the future, I... won't be confused and make mistakes again."

Wu Niannian choked up.

These days, drifting alone in the sea of ​​people, full of indifferent faces, she thought that if she could leave alone, she would be able to live alone.

But she was wrong.

She is not as chic as Jiu Ge at all, she still misses him, even though she was hurt like that by him, she still can't restrain her crazily missing.

Is she humble and ridiculous?
But this is her, nothing can change...

He opened his lips and wanted to say something. At this time, the voice of Baili Jiuge came from the alley: "Yin Haochen, your men are here to find you, you'd better go back."

Yin Haochen sank, clasped Wu Niannian's hand, and dragged her out, seeing that it was really his subordinates who came for her, he nodded, but then saw Mo Li.

The first round of food relief work has been completed, and Mo Li ordered several officials to come here under the leadership of Baili Jiuge.

Seeing Yin Haochen at this moment, he greeted Yin Haochen indifferently: "Prince Chen."

"Zhou Shizi." Yin Haochen quickly remembered something. He only heard about it this morning, and he couldn't believe it.

He said: "Zhou Shizi, this king... I have something to talk to you alone."

Mo Li smiled warmly: "Prince Chen, please."

When the two were far enough apart, Yin Haochen looked back, and Fang Shen said: "I heard this morning that Jiu Ge is the successor of the Penglai Saintess, your...sister?"
