Chapter 74 Origin
Jiang Sui seemed to have lost the ability to speak, Wei Xun didn't rush him, just looked at him quietly.
After a long time, Jiang Sui let out a whimper in his throat, and he rushed forward again, his thin arms clinging tightly to Wei Xun's body, he slammed into Wei Xun's arms, shaking Wei Xun's body, but Wei Xun She still caught him well, her soft cheeks rubbed against her chest, even through the fabric, she could still feel the beautiful touch, the only fly in the ointment was that the person in her arms trembled so much that it made people unable to feel any charming thoughts.
Wei Xun hugged him, his eyes fell on the hexagonal lantern, and he silently twitched the corners of his mouth. Wei Xun gently stroked Jiang Sui's back, again and again, warm and gentle.
Mo Yu stood at the gate, far away from them, and there was no sound around her, but she suddenly raised her hand and wiped her eyes with her sleeve. Qin Wangshan was standing beside her, with her head down, covering her current state of mind. expression.
On New Year's Eve, it was supposed to be a lively and sweet day, but the palace couldn't be more lively. The emperor and the regent hugged each other under the window coffin. Qin Wangshan and the others prepared a hot pot and prepared a few The funny show didn't make this New Year's Eve too dull.
360 days a year, people can come up with reasons to make a wish every day. They make a wish when they see a shooting star, make a wish when they see a rainbow, make a wish when the Stove Lord goes to heaven, or make a wish when the Nian beast comes and goes.
Jiang Sui never believed in these things, but on the day of keeping the year old, he still tried, worked hard and made a pious wish.
He hoped that no matter which god heard his appeal, as long as he could continue to live, then he would do anything.He doesn't care whether he cultivates Taoism, observes Buddhist temples, or dissipates his family wealth.
When making a wish, Jiang Sui closed his eyes, and it was Zi Shi, and Wei Xun always kept watch all night, Wei Xun circled him, and he said that it was enough for the whole family to have one watchman, and Jiang Sui could go to bed first.He used the three words "family", but Jiang Sui didn't correct him, he just closed his eyes obediently, made a wish, opened them again, looked up, and found that Wei Xun was the same with eyes closed.
Jiang Sui knew that he was not asleep, but he didn't know if he was also making a wish.
If he is willing, then what is his wish.
Looking at him silently, Jiang Sui didn't think about this question any more, he leaned his head over, wrapped his arms around Wei Xun's thin waist, and then slowly closed his eyes.
New Year's Eve just passed, and the first day of the first lunar month came as promised. I don't know if Jiang Sui's wish had an effect. In a few days, the progress of finding the antidote really advanced.
At the beginning, Zuo Zhiqiu caught two secret agents from Dongliu Kingdom, but later found that these two agents were the lowest level. They didn't know who they were online, and they didn't know why Dongliu Kingdom sent them here. It is the tool used by Shangxian and Wei Qian to communicate with each other.
In the past few months, Luo Meisi has been looking for an antidote while also investigating the secret work. Their hard work paid off, and they finally dug out the online of these two secret works.
What everyone didn't expect was that this person was a concubine of a senior official in the capital.
When Jiang Sui heard about it, the concubine had already been arrested, along with her husband.Coincidentally, her husband is Mr. Zeng who is often pulled out to block guns when the left and the right quarrel.Mr. Zeng's business ability is not very good, and he can get to where he is now, thanks to the good deeds of his ancestors, and he didn't get involved in messy things, so he has been safe until today.
When everyone mentions Mr. Zeng, the first impression is that he dotes on his concubine and destroys his wife, not to mention that the house is restless, and he allows the concubine to step on the face of his wife, making his wife so angry that she can't even get out of bed now.At that time, everyone felt that this little concubine was really tricky, and the people in the back house couldn't control her. Looking at it now, didn't she have tricks? Even the former prince had contact with her.
Originally, it was not a big deal for Mr. Zeng to be imprisoned. It is very common for spy agents from the enemy country to infiltrate the court, and some even infiltrated the palace. Moreover, according to the interrogation by Luo Meisi, they found that Mr. Zeng did not know that his little brother The concubine is a secret worker, and he has been kept in the dark these years. The concubine has been using his name to make trouble outside by taking advantage of his stupidity. In fact, Mr. Zeng is still the victim.
What really caught Wei Xun's attention was that after that little concubine was released from prison, someone said something like Miss Beauty in front of her, and she immediately raised her head, and it looked like she had only heard about it.
The one who mentioned Simei in front of the concubine was Jiang Yi.The director of Luomei Division is now a colleague of Jiang Yi, and the two of them each brought their own troops to find the antidote for Si Meiren. The director is not greedy for merit, and will share any news with Jiang Yi. Otherwise, no one would be able to detect the abnormality of the concubine.
This little concubine is not an ordinary person, and when she found out that the interrogator cared about Simei, she immediately took advantage of this and asked to see the emperor. She would not say anything when she did not see the emperor, and there were no outsiders around.
Now Simei is his lifeline, the concubine pinched this point, and he was completely shackled. He decided to see the concubine, but Jiang Sui felt that she might want to take the opportunity to assassinate the emperor, even if Wei Xun said there was something wrong. Even though he was fully prepared, he was still very worried, so when Wei Xun went to see her, he, the director, Jiang Yi and the others hid in the next door, peeping cautiously while secretly guarding against the concubine's birth. thing.
In fact, the little concubine really couldn't do much, she was tied up from top to bottom, and she couldn't even move her fingers. It was a coincidence that the pillar that tied her was the one that tied Chengying before.
Wei Xun walked in, looked at this strange woman, and said in a low voice, "What do you want to tell me?"
The concubine raised her head, saw Wei Xun's face, shed two lines of tears without saying a word.
"Your Majesty," she said, her voice became very hoarse, "Do you know Su Meng?"
Wei Xun frowned slightly, but Jiang Sui who was next door couldn't help but widen his eyes.
The rest of the people were all at a loss, which is normal, after all, Su Meng had never appeared in front of others, Jiang Sui knew about her, it was Wei Xun who told her.
Because this Su Meng was wiped out of existence by the old emperor, Wei Xun's biological mother.
Jiang Sui suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and as expected, the concubine began to tell the truth about the past. The concubine's name is Su Ling, and she is Su Meng's biological sister. Both of them came from Dongliu country back then, but Su Meng was more beautiful. , was sent to the palace to be a dancer.But Su Ling's looks were a little bit worse, and in order to have Su Meng take care of her outside the palace, she entered the brothel, and later, by means of means, Master Zeng carried her back home.
These years, she has been staying in Zeng's house, and she is very quiet and unable to contact Su Meng. Even after learning that she died, she could not collect her body.She recognized Wei Xun as Su Meng's child, and after Wei Xun ascended the throne, she went to Changle Mountain with Master Zeng, saw Wei Xun's face by chance, and found that he looked very similar to Su Meng.
Speaking of this, Su Ling looked terrified. She said that she didn't dare to recognize Wei Xun, she was afraid that he would kill her, and she was also afraid of having a bad influence on Wei Xun. Now that the incident has happened to her, she doesn't need to worry about anything.
After this confession, I was really pitiful and miserable. No wonder Mr. Zeng was subdued by her. Jiang Sui listened next door, frowning unconsciously.
Jiang Sui felt that he could only believe half of these words, maybe even half of them, he could be sober as an outsider, but it was about Wei Xun's biological mother, and he was afraid that Wei Xun would be entangled by Su Ling.
Just as he was thinking this way, Wei Xun spoke again, with a somewhat impatient tone, "I didn't come here to recognize your relatives, if you say one more thing that has nothing to do with Miss Simei, I'll chop off your hands."
Su Ling choked, tears were hanging on her face, it looked a little funny.
Jiang Sui covered it with his fist to prevent himself from laughing out loud.
Finding that the tenderness offensive was useless to Wei Xun, Su Ling fell silent, adjusted her expression, and continued: "The last time I saw Simei was 18 years ago. Speaking of which, Your Majesty also has a relationship with it. .”
Wei Xun's forehead twitched, "What do you mean?"
Su Ling lowered her eyes and smiled softly, as if recalling something amusing, "Simei is highly poisonous and a rare item, there is only one copy in total, because Su Meng can enter the palace, so our master will I gave the Simei to her, and after Su Meng entered the palace, we lost contact, and I never knew who she used the Simei on, but now it seems that she never used it at all."
As she said that, her eyes turned to the next door, and then she laughed again, "Unfortunately, the original plan should be used on that guy who can't live without a woman."
Jiang Sui was taken aback when he heard that, this answered the old emperor's doubts about why he was so kind to beauties from other countries but so cold to Wei Xun's mother, because she was a spy and an assassin, and the old emperor didn't kill her on the spot, so maybe he did. For the sake of her being pregnant.
Wei Xun and his thoughts were going the other way, but now his mind is full of thoughts that Simei was brought by his mother, and neither of his parents is innocent.
But it's useless to hate them any more. Both of them are dead. He clenched his fists tightly, and he continued to ask: "Then do you know what the antidote for Simei is?"
Su Ling looked at him, blinked, "I know."
Before Wei Xun could say the next sentence, she quickly said, "But I won't tell you now, I'm not stupid, I know this is my last bargaining chip, if I tell you now, you will definitely kill me. You promise It's useless, I don't believe it, even if you want to torture me and force me to speak out, it's better to save yourself, I have been trained for many years, and the last thing I fear is being tortured."
Her tone was so calm that people couldn't tell whether what she said was true or not, but now it was Wei Xun who asked for help, so he was destined to be blackmailed by Su Ling.
With gloomy eyes, Wei Xun asked her, "Then what do you want to do?"
"Simple. You let me out and let me go by myself. Someone is waiting for me outside, you can send someone to follow me. When I get to the place where I was picked up, I will leave you the prescription for the antidote. After you leave, if you keep your promise, then don't come after me."
"As for the place to pick me up, I can't tell you now, after you get out, you will naturally know where it is."
After speaking, Su Ling looked at him fixedly.
Not to mention where the meeting place is, after Su Ling goes out, she can take them away at will, even if the entire capital is deployed, there will always be something missing, in case she cheats...
Wei Xun said suddenly: "I'll send someone to take you out, and he won't let you go until you finish writing the prescription."
Disgust flashed in Su Ling's eyes, "How do I know if he will suddenly kill me?"
"You don't know, you can only gamble." Wei Xun said without giving in.
The two looked at each other for a long time, and finally Su Ling agreed to the condition. She agreed reluctantly and looked very unhappy.
After two days, Su Ling was released, and Jiang Yi was the one who finally sent her out. Looking at Jiang Yi's back escorting Su Ling, Jiang Sui was a little worried. Even though Su Ling said she knew the antidote, Jiang Sui still didn't dare. Therefore, he didn't feel happy at all, he just felt that they might have fallen into the trap of this elaboration.
Seeing his expression, Wei Xun shook his hand comfortingly, and he whispered: "It's okay, she can't run away."
It's exactly what Su Ling thought, no matter whether she has the antidote or not, Wei Xun doesn't intend to let her go. After all, no one knows whether the antidote is true or not, but if it is true, then she should still have a chance.
After leaving the prison, Jiang Yi walked almost half a circle around the capital according to Su Ling's words, and finally came to the place where she was said to meet her. Su Ling quickly wrote a prescription and threw it to Jiang Yi. Running out quickly, Jiang Yi caught the prescription and didn't chase her.
He read the whole prescription in silence, then raised his head and looked in the direction of Su Ling's escape.
The besieging people are not here, but in the periphery of a radius of ten miles. Unless Su Ling is so powerful that she can escape ten miles from the ground, she will definitely not be able to escape.
The guards of Luo Meisi who are squatting down feel confident, and Su Ling also feels confident, because she can change her appearance, she has another identity, and more importantly, the person who takes care of her has an identity that no one will doubt or reject. Now, even if she doesn't leave, she won't be caught.
Soon, she met up with the person who responded, and this time she changed another person. Each time, the person sent by the other party was different. Some were knight-errants, and some were traffickers. The identity that will not appear, this time is a big-armed swordsman, took the tools of disguise, they came to an empty private house, Su Ling changed her appearance, and told the other party what happened to her.
It's true that Su Ling knew Su Meng, but their names were all given later. She and Su Meng are not sisters at all, they're just small workers who were cultivated in the same place. Her tone was full of complacency and ridicule. He didn't speak, and only asked a dull question until the end.
"Do you really know the antidote for Simei?"
Su Ling glanced at him in surprise, not understanding why he was interested in this, but she still shook her head, "Where did Miss Simei get the antidote? I'm just talking nonsense."
The swordsman heard this, walked up behind Su Ling, took advantage of her not paying attention, stretched out his hand, and broke her neck directly.
After doing all this, he didn't even look at Su Ling's body, picked up the disguise tools scattered on the ground, packed everything up as the employer said, and searched Su Ling's body to make sure she didn't hide in the middle What, he straightened up, opened the door and went out.
