The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 608 Husband and wife (two more)

He was as swift as lightning, as fierce as a dragon, grabbed the big tree that was pressing on Xuan Pinghou's body, and threw it viciously!

Xuan Pinghou was already ready to die, he wondered if death felt like this? Fluttering all over?

What about the big tree? What about the surging mudslides?

He heard the sound, didn't he crush him to pieces and suffocate to death?

Just as Xuan Pinghou was wondering, he felt a powerful aura rushing towards him. Xuan Pinghou has lived to this age and has never admitted that anyone other than himself is strong. Being able to have this feeling shows how profound the other party's skill is. .

And this breath is still a little familiar.

But it's impossible to think about it.

Before Xuan Pinghou could figure out what was going on, whether it was reality or a hallucination after death, he was picked up from the ground!

Xuan Pinghou who was completely out of condition: "..."

Xiao Heng's heart almost jumped out of his throat, but when he saw that heart-pounding scene, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Long Yi!"

The moment Long Yi flew away with Xuan Ping Hou Fei in his arms, mudslides rolled in and flooded the entire village almost in the blink of an eye.

The mudslide was chasing after Long Yi, Long Yi was excellent at lightness, whenever he was about to be submerged, he could tiptoe on the big tree, he flew away, and the big tree was swallowed up.

He landed on the roof again, and again he soared into the air, engulfing the roof.

This is a contest with Hades Yama.

Xiao Heng couldn't see their figures anymore, but he believed that Long Yi's skill would definitely beat this mudslide.

The mudslide engulfed not only a village, but even the official road where Xiao Heng lived became its prey.

It was like a thousand-year-old behemoth that had been awakened, and it opened its mouth wide behind Xiao Heng.

Xiao Heng hugged the baby in Tuan's arms, holding the rein tightly with both hands.

Along the way, there were rocks falling all the time, the horses on the other side were already frightened and ran around, but Xuan Pinghou's mount did not.

It is the king of horses that came out of the golden iron horse. It is unruffled, well-trained, agile and vigorous, and avoids every rock with precision.

There is no need for Xiao Heng to use a whip to whip it, as its instinct to avoid natural disasters, it has already increased its speed to the extreme.

The mudslide was chasing after them, and it was about to engulf them in one bite. Its eyes were like knives, and with a kick of its hind hooves, it suddenly took off!

Xiao Heng looked at the broken bridge and flowing water under his feet, and his heart once again raised his throat.

If this can't be crossed--

It crossed successfully!

The mudslide rushed into the rushing river!

Xiao Heng turned around,

Looking in shock at the mudslide that almost caught up with him, his whole body was soaked in cold sweat!

The horse led Xiao Heng all the way back in the rain.

On the other side, Xuan Pinghou and Long Yi's situation is more dangerous than Xiao Heng's. After all, the village is lower and it is the main direction of mudslides, and they can't get close to the official road, so they can only run to the mountain on the other side of the village.

Liu Quan was on one of the hills at this time.

Xiao Heng originally left him on the top of the mountain and told him not to wander around, but after he regained his strength, he was worried about Xiao Heng, so he went down the mountain to find Xiao Heng.

As soon as he reached the foot of the mountain, he heard the sound of a landslide. He secretly thought that something was wrong, and hurriedly turned around and ran up the mountain.

Naihe just ran over halfway up the mountain and the mudslide rushed over.

Just when he was about to be swept away and buried, a whip slapped and wrapped around Liu Quan's waist firmly.

Liu Quan looked up, his eyes were bright.

It's Gu Jiao!

Gu Jiao grabbed the rope with one hand and wrapped Liu Quan around with a whip with the other. She raised her eyes and said to the people above: "Go up!"

Gu Chengfeng yanked the rope, pulling Gu Jiao and Liu Quan up to the top of the mountain!

Gu Jiao looked at Liu Quan who was dragged up by herself, her eyes were very satisfied.

She finally experienced the experience of Gu Chengfeng rescuing Tang Yueshan from the tower with a whip when she was in Yuegu City. She thought it was very funny at the time.

Liu Quan hanging upside down on a tree branch: So what, can I come up straight next time?

Gu Jiao has only learned the whip for a few days, and she is a little novice. Liu Quan was rolled upside down by her, and her head was congested.

Gu Chengfeng's face darkened.

Said I'm going down, I'm going down! You have to go by yourself!

Of course, he also understands that Gu Jiao is not all for fun, after all, the one who goes down is in danger of being swallowed up by mudslides at any time, this girl is always like this, and all dangerous things are done by herself.

Just this time, she didn't intend to bring him here. He happened to follow her when she was going out.

"Who do you look down on, brat?"

Gu Chengfeng curled his lips and snorted, "Give me back the whip."

"No." Gu Jiao decisively took the whip for herself.

Gu Chengfeng: "..."

Is a red-tasseled gun not enough for you? You still grabbed my whip and smashed it!

Gu Chengfeng glared at her secretly, and I will snatch it back after I go back!

Although the terrain here is high enough, there is no guarantee that there will not be a second wave of mudslides rushing over, so they still have to leave as soon as possible.

Gu Chengfeng grabbed one with each hand, and used lightness kung fu to swipe towards the mountain ahead.

Wait, what's wrong?

Gu Chengfeng gritted his teeth with difficulty: "You girl, what have you eaten recently! Why are you so heavy!"

Gu Jiao played with the little whip she had just snatched: "I don't have one, if you can't do it yourself, just say it."

No man can do it!

Gu Chengfeng tried his best to pull his hair out: "It's—it's—you—grow—heavy—"

No—ok——he—take—not—move—it!

Seeing that the three of them were about to fall, Long Yi flew over with a whoosh, snatching Gu Jiao from Gu Chengfeng's grasp.

Gu Jiao, who was caught off guard and snatched away: "..."

Long Yi, didn't you go to save Xuan Ping Hou? Why did you come to pinch me again!

I agreed to take Gu Chengfeng with me just to avoid being caught by you!

Long Yi held one on the side.

Xuan Pinghou looked sideways slightly, took a closer look, and waved at Gu Jiao: "Daughter-in-law, hello—wow—"

Gu Jiao also waved her hand: "Hello—wow—"

A greeting was not finished, and the two of them were blown into sad frogs who couldn't close their mouths together by the oncoming wind and rain.

Gu Chengfeng was left far behind, he was almost fascinated!

Damn, you can run so fast with two people! Are you windy?

A man like wind!

Long Yi walked through the forest, the journey was quite far, when he brought Gu Jiao and Xuan Pinghou to the nearest inn, Xiao Heng was already changing clothes in the house.

Xuan Pinghou caught sight of Princess Xinyang who was directing his servants to boil water and boil medicine under the corridor.

He froze for a moment.

But looking back at Long Yi, he seemed relieved again.

Yujin came out of the next room with a basin of hot water: "Princess, I have bathed the child, and there are no baby clothes, so I wrapped him in adult clothes."

"Yes." Princess Xinyang nodded.

"Master Hou?" Yujin went to pour water, turned her head, and saw Xuan Pinghou at the door.

Princess Xinyang also looked at him.

How embarrassing and embarrassing Xuan Pinghou is now, he doesn't know it, he thought he was still handsome.

He raised his eyebrows and smiled casually: "Qin Fengwan?"

Princess Xinyang looked at his crippled eyebrows, her eyelids twitched, and she replied vaguely, "Well, what about Jiaojiao and the others?"

Gu Jiao came out from behind Xuan Pinghou, spitting out a mouthful of rainwater expressionlessly.

Not long after, Gu Chengfeng and Liu Quan also arrived.

Princess Xinyang said lightly: "Go and change your clothes."

Princess Xinyang is worthy of being a mother, she always carries children's clothes everywhere, but now there is more than one child, Gu Jiao too.

She asked Yujin to take Gu Jiao to the room that had been prepared earlier in the morning. The charcoal inside was already hot, so Yujin took out the dry clothes that Princess Xinyang had prepared for Gu Jiao and asked Gu Jiao to change into them.

For Xiao Heng, she brought a few more sets, one set was given to Gu Chengfeng, and the other set... was given to Xuan Pinghou.

The figures of both of them were quite suitable. Liu Quan had a middle-aged belly and couldn't wear Xiao Heng's clothes, so he went to the guards to get a suit.

Xuan Pinghou looked at his son's clothes in his hand, and said to Princess Xinyang at the door of the house: "That's right, you don't have my clothes over there."

Princess Xinyang's face darkened, and she said as if I would wear your clothes for you!

Xuan Pinghou looked at Princess Xinyang with a smile that was not a smile: "Qin Fengwan, did you come here specially to save me?"

Princess Xinyang can tolerate him if he doesn't speak, but Princess Xinyang wants to beat him up when he speaks!

Princess Xinyang said angrily, "I'm here to save my son!" Can you stop taking yourself so seriously?

"Oh." Xuan Pinghou raised his eyebrows and put the clothes on the table, "I don't believe it."

Princess Xinyang: "..."

How did this person become more shameless over the years?

Princess Xinyang decided to ignore him in order not to get angry!

Princess Xinyang went to Gu Jiao's room, and the rescued baby was also placed here.

Gu Jiao had already changed her clothes and was treating the baby.

"How is it?" Princess Xinyang asked as she entered the room.

Gu Jiao opened the small medicine box, took out the stethoscope, and said: "The bones are fine, there are some scratches and abrasions, slight dehydration, high fever, and I can see these for the time being. I heard that the dry well is quite deep, and this child has a serious life."

"I'm asking how you are doing." Princess Xinyang said.

Gu Jiao hung the stethoscope on her ear to listen to the baby's heart and lung movements.

Princess Xinyang took a panoramic view of her expression, sighed, and asked, "Are you injured?"

"I'm fine." Gu Jiao didn't wait for Princess Xinyang to ask this time, she took the initiative to say, "The old wound has already healed."

Princess Xinyang nodded in satisfaction, and then looked at the child on the table: "Is he okay?"

After listening to his heart and lungs, Gu Jiao took off the stethoscope and said, "Pneumonia. It should be infected before falling into the well. After soaking in ice water for so long, the condition has worsened."

Princess Xinyang's complexion changed when she heard about pneumonia. Xiao Heng had this disease when she was a child. She had a constant cough and high fever, and almost died.

Princess Xinyang still has lingering fears: "Then what should I do?"

Gu Jiao said: "Give him medicine first, and if he can't take it down, he will get an infusion."

This disease was a serious disease in ancient times, but it is not a difficult and miscellaneous disease for a small medicine box.

Sure enough, when Gu Jiao opened the small medicine box again, there were already fruit-flavored antibiotic granules and antiviral oral liquid inside.

"Rice soup is ready." Yujin walked in with a bowl of steaming rice soup, "This is the only thing in the kitchen."

It means food for children.

Gu Jiao gave the medicine to Yujin, and explained the usage and dosage.

"Okay, I'll feed him later." Yujin glanced at the weak child, "It's pretty good, not noisy."

Princess Xinyang also looked at the baby and said, "After crying for so long, I don't have the strength to make trouble anymore."

There is Yujin here, Gu Jiao went next door to see Xiao Heng.

Compared with that baby, Xiao Heng's condition is much more miserable. He was originally only half a mummy, but now his whole body is covered with gauze, he is almost a fat white man.

Xuan Pinghou's situation is not much different, except that Gu Jiao is Xiao Heng's daughter-in-law, and Gu Jiao can be tied wherever she says, but Gu Jiao is not Xuan Pinghou's daughter-in-law.

He is not tied.

Gu Jiao then called his own daughter-in-law over.

Princess Xinyang entered the room, Gu Jiao had already left, Xuan Pinghou was paralyzed on the wheelchair, with his back facing the direction of the door.

He thought it was Gu Jiao who came, and hummed, "I don't want to tie that thing up!"

"What do you want if you don't tie me up?"

Princess Xinyang's voice sounded faintly.

Xuan Pinghou choked, and when he wanted to turn around, his neck hurt so much that he gasped: "Why are you?"

Princess Xinyang came to him, looked at him and said, "Why don't you accept treatment?"

Xuan Ping Hou Hun said indifferently: "It hurts a little bit!"

He still wanted to kill the old King Liang, otherwise the old man would die.

Xuan Pinghou thought she was going to say how do you get there because the roads are blocked, and he had already figured out a way to go around from the next county town. It might be too late, but he had to try.

He is a person who will not die until the Yellow River.

It is believed that Princess Yang did not say so.

After a terrible silence, she said softly: "I thought about killing him countless times. At first I used the Dragon Shadow Guards, but they didn't move in the end."

Xuan Pinghou pondered for a moment, then frowned and analyzed: "They are dead men bought by the old King Liang from the Kingdom of Yan. The master who trained them also came from the Kingdom of Yan. The Old Liang King participated in the whole process of training, so he secretly gave them an order. , never kill him."

Princess Xinyang nodded acquiescingly: "I gave all orders from Long Er to Long Wu, but I didn't listen to my orders. I only missed Long Yi, who just happened to go out. When he first came to my side, he was a little restless. He stayed in the mansion in an irregular manner. I didn’t know that he entered indiscriminately at the time. I just thought that he, like the other four Dragon Shadow Guards, would not carry out the task of assassinating that person. He ordered."

Xuan Pinghou caught a certain point: "Wait, what do you mean that Long Yi entered randomly?"

Princess Xinyang said: "The first emperor announced me into the palace a few days before his death, and said he would give me four dragon shadow guards, but it turned out that there were five at the mansion. I thought the first emperor changed his mind and gave me more gifts after I left. One."

Xuan Pinghou wondered, "Aren't you going to ask?"

Princess Xinyang took it for granted: "Why do you ask about good things? What if the question is gone?"

Xuan Pinghou's mind froze for a second, obviously he didn't expect Princess Xinyang to be so fond of taking advantage of her.

"That's true." He was taught.

Xu Shi was tired of standing and talking, so Princess Xinyang sat down on the stool diagonally opposite Xuan Pinghou: "Later, I cultivated some forces secretly, even if I didn't use the Dragon Shadow Guard, I could kill him, but I didn't do that. "

"The reason?" Xuan Pinghou turned his head to look at her.

Princess Xinyang didn't look at Xuan Pinghou, but looked at the pouring rain outside the house: "I found out that he was sick, a very serious illness, and there were many pains all over his body, from the court doctor to the wandering doctor, none of them could be cured. He can't even alleviate his pain at all. The imperial doctor asserted that his internal organs are deteriorating, and he won't live for a year."

"But a year has passed, and he still hasn't died. If an ordinary person had such a serious illness, he would have passed away long ago, but he couldn't die even if he wanted to. I sometimes wonder if God has eyes, and his Is retribution coming?"

"It's not that he hasn't tried to seek death, but the Liang Palace lost its real power when it was in his hands. It has survived to this day because of His Majesty's respect for him. If he goes, the Liang Palace will completely decline. How about his family members? How could he let go of the glory and wealth in front of him? They hanged his life at all costs, he was used by his family, and he suffered from illness all day long, life would be better than death."

"You said, this is not his retribution?"

Xuan Pinghou frowned and looked at her: "Qin Fengwan."

Princess Xinyang said indifferently: "So you don't have to kill him, he already has what he deserves, so you don't need to dirty your hands anymore."

After that, she turned and left the house.

Xuan Pinghou turned the wheelchair around, looked at her back and said, "Qin Fengwan."

"What?" Princess Xinyang turned around and looked at him strangely.

Xuan Pinghou patted the armrest, hooked his lips and smiled: "Two wheelchairs."

If you just came to rescue Xiao Heng, you only need to bring a wheelchair.

Princess Xinyang turned her face lightly: "Yujin brought it."

In the middle of the night, Xuanpinghou disappeared.

His mount is gone too.

He still took a detour to the Prince Liang Mansion.

Old Liang Wang hadn't died yet, but he was about to die.

The family members have all gone to the capital, and the old King Liang can finally die now.

Unexpectedly, when he was dying, he saw Yan Luo holding a butcher knife in his hand.

...

On a sunny afternoon, the bauhinia flowers in Bishui Hutong bloomed, and large patches of purple were newly planted by Xiaoqingkong.

In fact, the so-called new planting is nothing more than moving the flower pots from the courtyard of Princess Xinyang to the courtyard of Bishui Hutong. Even the moving was done by Long Yi, but he took it over and put it on the ground, so he planted it.

In the front yard, Gu Jiao is guiding Huang Fuxian to do rehabilitation.

Huang Fuxian successfully stood up with the blessing of the prosthetic limb, and is now practicing walking with crutches.

Gu Jiao made prosthetic limbs according to his body shape, despite his young age, he was actually taller than Gu Xiaoshun and Gu Yan.

On the other side of the yard, two big whites sat on wheelchairs obediently with their arms and legs outstretched, basking in the sun.

Xuan Pinghou had plaster casts on his limbs, neck, waist and abdomen, and he couldn't move anything below his chin.

He could only roll his eyes, trying to look at his son beside him: "My back is a little itchy, scratch it for me."

Although Xiao Heng didn't have a plaster cast, but his whole body was tightly bound with gauze and he was not much more flexible than him: "I can't scratch it."

...

The old Liang Wang was brutally murdered, and the scene of the crime was horrible.

The emperor was furious, and ordered the local government to investigate the matter thoroughly. In order to find out the real culprit as soon as possible, the emperor also sent Xing Shangshu, a case-solving expert.

Xing Shangshu couldn't take Xiao Heng with him this time because Xiao Heng was injured.

He personally investigated thoroughly, but the scene was clean without leaving any clues, as if...the other party had a very powerful anti-reconnaissance capability.

Xing Shangshu returned to Beijing and reported to the emperor: "Your Majesty, judging from the wounds of the deceased, this is a vendetta. The murderer vented a terrible anger on the deceased. The deceased... suffered horrific torture."

Emperor Longyan was furious!

That was the emperor's most respected uncle, who was brutally murdered at the end of his life!

Who is so bold!

Just as Xing Shangshu was reporting the case to the emperor, an eunuch hurried over and reported loudly outside the imperial study: "Your Majesty! Old Liang Wangfei is begging to see you! She said she knows who is the murderer of the old Liang Wang!"

Eunuch Wei was so frightened that he almost threw the fly whisk in his hand.

The eunuch who was able to make noise outside the imperial study room could not be seen as one of his own. It was obvious that the old concubine Liang had bribed her.

The old concubine Liang was originally imprisoned by Empress Xiao, but news of the death of the old Liang king came from Pingyuefu City, so the emperor sent someone to deliver the news to the old Liang prince's mansion in the capital.

Probably the person who sent the news was bought by the old concubine Liang, and then bought into the palace.

"Xuan," said the emperor.

The old Concubine Liang didn't return to Pingyuefu City because she fainted on the spot after hearing the news of the death of the old Liang Wang. She was "dizzy" for several days and nights, and only now woke up.

"His Majesty!"

The old concubine Liang staggered and knelt down in front of the emperor's desk.

The emperor hurriedly got up and walked around the desk to help her up: "Uncle Jiu, please get up!"

The old concubine Liang held the emperor's arm tightly, and burst into tears: "Your Majesty...Your Majesty, you must make the decision for your ninth uncle!"

The emperor said sternly: "Uncle Jiu said she knew about the murderer, so how dare you ask who the murderer is?"

Old Concubine Liang gritted her teeth, and said, "Princess Xinyang!"

The emperor was stunned, and said: "Uncle Jiu was joking, how could the murderer be Xinyang? She doesn't know how to kill people, especially Uncle Jiu."

He still doesn't know what kind of temperament Xinyang is, and he won't do this kind of murder and arson, not to mention that she has no motive to kill the old Liang Wang.

The old Princess Liang seemed to have exhausted all her strength and trembled violently: "Your Majesty, believe me! The murderer is her! It really is her!"

How could the emperor believe that Xinyang was the murderer?

The emperor said earnestly: "Uncle Jiu, you are tired, I will ask Eunuch Wei to take you back to the mansion to rest."

The old concubine Liang won't leave, the old Liang king is dead, and the Liang prince's mansion is about to decline. All of this is caused by that bastard in Xinyang!

She won't make it easy for them, and she won't make it easy for her!

The big deal is to die together!

Fish dead net broken!

The old Concubine Liang raised three fingers and said solemnly: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty, you have to trust me! I swear to God, if the murderer is not Princess Xinyang, I will be struck by lightning and die a terrible death!"

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a flash of lightning and thunder in the sky, and a bolt of thunder actually split into the imperial study room, directly hitting the old Concubine Liang's body.

Old Princess Liang: "..."

Xing Shangshu: "..."

emperor:"……"

When the emperor asked Eunuch Wei to call Gu Jiao to the palace, the old Concubine Liang had already died.

Empress Xiao also came.

She looked at the old Concubine Liang in the imperial study, covered her nose with a handkerchief, and said in distaste: "Unlucky, you actually died in Your Majesty's imperial study!"

The emperor also felt unlucky, so he didn't refute Empress Xiao's words.

However, he still called Princess Xinyang to the palace.

"Uncle Jiu said that you are a murderer, I find it very strange, did you do something that misunderstood her?"

"No, maybe she was stimulated and lost her mind."

Thinking about it, the emperor did not rule out this possibility.

But for some reason, he somehow felt that something was still wrong.

He fixedly looked at Princess Xinyang: "Where were you when the incident happened? I heard that you left the city."

Princess Xinyang said without changing her expression: "I went to visit Uncle Jiu. Uncle Jiu came to me that day and said that Uncle Jiu was in poor health and wanted to see me before he died. There was a natural disaster and I was blocked at the post station, if your Majesty doesn't believe me, you can send someone to ask."

Princess Xinyang stayed in the station overnight and returned to the capital the next day. Everyone in the station can testify.

"Where's Xuan Pinghou?" the emperor asked with gazing eyes.

It has to be said that the matter between Concubine Jing and Qin Fengyan made the emperor grow up. If he had never doubted Xinyang in the past, but now, he is much more cautious.

But Princess Xinyang is not a vegetarian either, she said seamlessly: "I don't know about the rainstorm, Ah Heng heard that I was out of the city, worried that I would encounter landslides and mudslides, so he hurried to chase me, his father was worried about him, They also came together. A-Heng was worried about the village, and wanted to see if it was all evacuated, but found a baby falling into a dry well, and rescued the baby desperately, both of them were seriously injured. "

Only Gu Jiao and his party knew that Xuan Ping Hou left the inn in the middle of the night. Gu Chengfeng disguised himself as Xuan Ping Hou and returned to Beijing, and even spoke a few words with the guards at the gate of the city.

This is also something that can be found.

Xuan Pinghou also had a perfect alibi.

Princess Xinyang continued: "Afterwards, the two have been recuperating in Bishui Hutong and have never left."

A few days ago, it was Gu Chengfeng who was recuperating, but his face was covered with bandages, who would recognize it?

They called Hou Ye on their lips, and the neighbors knew that it was Hou Ye.

Even if the emperor went to check, everyone in the alley would say that Marquis Xuan Ping had been there for several days.

The emperor nodded: "A-Heng went to the palace on the second day after returning to Beijing. I saw him in Renshou Palace, but I didn't say a few words. He was too tired and fell asleep."

This is also to make an alibi for Xuan Pinghou in advance.

Both of them are recuperating in Bishui Hutong. As long as Xiao Heng is real, there will be no doubt that the Xuan Ping Hou that everyone talks about is fake.

After leaving the palace, Princess Xinyang went to Bishui Hutong.

Xuan Pinghou was basking in the sun alone in the yard, and he looked meaningfully at Princess Xinyang, who wished she could appear eight times a day: "Qin Fengwan, you have come here a lot lately, don't you think it's because you fell in love with Ben?" Marquis, right? You'd better give up on this idea, Ben Hou protects you because you are Ben Hou's nominal wife and the mother of Ben Hou's son, not that Ben Hou has any affection for you."

Princess Xinyang said coldly, "I'm here to see my son!"

Xuan Pinghou looked at her several times without blinking, shaking his eyeballs as if shaking his head: "I don't believe it."

Princess Xinyang: "...!!"
