The old servant cautiously led the female envoys into the room and asked Nan Yi through the curtain: "Young madam, the return hall has sent medicinal food, do you want to use it?"
Nan Yi was lying on the bed boredly when she suddenly smelled a scent...it smelled so good!
The meals he had eaten in the past two days were mainly light and contained many taboos. Suddenly smelling such an alluring smell, Nan Yi swallowed subconsciously, and his brain was dull for a moment before he realized - Gui Lai Tang?
Zhang Yue came back to find him? But why did he just give her something and not come to see her? Do you think this trivial compensation can buy her off?
Shouldn't he come and explain all this to her sincerely?
"Don't eat!" Nan Yi suddenly got angry.
The old servant immediately felt relieved and hurriedly agreed: "Then let them take the things away."
"Wait..." They all retreated to the door when they heard the footsteps. Nan Yi suddenly called out to them, "What should I do with these medicinal meals when I take them back?"
There was a moment of silence outside the tent. The old servant looked at the leading female servant. The female servant lowered her head and replied respectfully: "Of course he fell."
Nan Yi blurted out: "This is too wasteful!"
The old servant asked uncertainly: "Is that lady going to..."
"People are not a good person, but the food is not wrong. Why don't I eat it?" Nan Yi persuaded herself confidently, "Bring it in."
The old people in the alleys used to say that after death, one has to go underground and eat all the food wasted in this life before reincarnation. Her purpose in life is to never have trouble with food.
After receiving the order, the small wing was quickly occupied by a dozen well-trained female servants, and the two old servants were pushed aside, completely useless.
The female maids have a clear division of labor. There are those who spread carpets, those who spread tablecloths, and those who serve dishes in an orderly manner. Even the chairs for dining are brought by themselves and are covered with extremely soft fur. Sitting on this chair, you can sit on it as comfortably as possible. Less irritation to the wound. At the same time, two female medical officers went to the tent to take Nan Yi's pulse and handed her a bowl of prepared decoction based on her current condition.
After everything was over, Nan Yi was invited to come over for dinner.
Nan Yi was also a little shocked. Although Wangxuewu was already more luxurious than she had imagined, its daily expenses were not so extravagant.
She sat down at the dinner table as if in a dream. There were eight dishes, plus a sweet soup and a bowl of chicken soup. The amount of food on each plate was just right, allowing her to eat everything happily without being too heavy. support.
It can be said that it is meticulous.
Nan Yi looked up at the leading female envoy: "Is Zhang Yuehui so rich?"
The female envoy thought that it was finally time to show off her employer's financial strength, and she even replied with some pride: "Our employer's industries are spread all over the nine states, and it is not an exaggeration to say that we are as rich as the country."
Nan Yi inserted the chopsticks into the plate and took out the chicken legs.
The female envoy noticed that the young lady seemed unhappy to hear that her boss was rich, so her voice became softer and she shut her mouth obediently.
But Nan Yi really enjoyed this meal.
She couldn't eat at all these days and could only drink a little rice soup. The bowl of soup the female medical officer gave her before meals had a magical appetizing effect. In the spirit of not wasting anything, Nan Yi swept away the food on the table.
When Xie Queshan saw the clean cups and plates brought out from the side room, his reason told him that this was good, but a certain emotion made him so jealous.
She really...why didn't she have a good attitude toward him, but she ignored Zhang Yuehui?
Emotions are just a part of their reunion after a long separation and their lovers finally getting married.
Fortunately, he was so determined to save her even if he died. Now that I think about it, in fact, nothing will happen if he doesn't go. Zhang Yuehui will still take good care of people.
For the first time, Xie Queshan felt like a clown.
……
But Zhang Yuehui, who was envied, was not as happy as he seemed.
There were only five days left of his seven-day appointment with Wanyan Jun. Knowing that Nan Yi was at least willing to accept his arrangement only slightly relieved his guilt. He hadn't figured out how to face her yet, so he could only sit down and take stock of his own affairs.
It's not that he has no choice. Song Muchuan's identity is an excellent piece of news that can help him escape easily.
But Zhang Yuehui doesn't like being threatened. Wanyan Jun was riding on his head, making him very unhappy. How could he obediently send him a message? Otherwise, once or twice, Wanyan Jun would be so used to thinking that the entire Return Hall should do things for him.
He has always been a person who is determined to retaliate against others.
However, seeking the skin of a tiger has its own advantages. This time he wanted to escape not so smoothly... He had to stand firm and retain his strength to protect Nan Yi. He had to turn his back on the guests and let Wanyan Jun become a drowned dog, asking for help from the west. He can do it.
This is tantamount to giving yourself a hellish difficulty level.
But how could the scheming Boss Zhang not have a backup plan?
The chess game in front of him was organized vertically and horizontally, with half of the remaining games on display. Zhang Yuehui poured a handful of black stones onto it, making the chessboard a mess, as if the black and white stones were having a scuffle.
Hmm... there are some unlucky guys, let him serve.
——
Usha has been depressed recently and has been staying behind closed doors.
The lack of those soldiers under his command naturally could not be concealed. Wanyan Jun even complained first and severely interfered with him, saying that he acted without authorization and almost disrupted the plan, causing great damage to our army.
The memorial was on its way over mountains and ridges to the capital of Daqi. When the imperial court's instructions came back, Usha might have to take off his clothes in despair and go back to accept his guilt.
He can't keep up the energy to do anything now, and he doesn't bother to go to the military camp, so he just drinks and sleeps at home.
On this day, the haunting knock on the door outside disturbed his dream. He put on his clothes, opened the door with a curse, and saw a little beggar on crutches. He became even more angry. He was about to yell, but he saw The beggar threw away his cane and knelt down with a plop, bursting into tears.
"General——!"
Usha was stunned and rubbed his eyes.
Damn it, are you still alive? ! Is it a human or a ghost?
It was a coincidence that this beggar was originally a soldier of Usha. He was secretly sent to Hugui Mountain to search for the Yucheng army that night. When Wanyan Jun bombed the tunnel, their entire team entered from the mouth of the well, only to find that there were only Some of the armors did not belong to the Yucheng army. He wanted to chase him out, but he happened to be close to the exit. By some chance, he became the only survivor.
He climbed out of the collapsed tunnel and lost feeling in one leg. He crawled for several miles and wanted to return to the city to report the news to Usha, but he finally passed out in the freezing cold. When he woke up again, he was already in a strange cabin.
There was spring in the mountains. He didn't know how long he had been unconscious, and he didn't know who saved him or why he became invisible after he woke up... as if he knew when he would wake up.
But he didn't put too much doubt on this matter, thinking that some hunter had rescued him, so he left him in the hut to fend for himself. He survived only because of his own fate. The most important thing at the moment is to return to the city as soon as possible to report the news to Usha - they did not see the Yucheng army in the tunnel!
He still didn't know who was responsible for the explosion that day. He thought that Husha would be very surprised when he heard the news, but he didn't expect that Husha, who had been depressed for several days, suddenly had a happy face.
"You mean - there are no Yucheng troops in the tunnel at all? It's all our brothers who died?!"
"General, that's it. This must be a trap used by the Yucheng Army to escape the golden cicada! General, please send someone to find the Yucheng Army quickly!"
"No, no - the important thing is not the Yucheng army at all," Usha paced back and forth in the tent, looking a little strangely excited. His face turned red, as if he had found some treasure, and his eyes were astonishingly bright, " There must be a special agent in our army who can cooperate with the Yucheng army inside and outside! If we find that person, things will become easier."
"The general suspects..."
Who knew so clearly that Wanyan Jun would attack the Yucheng army, and who knew that Husha would take the credit... Xie Queshan! The man who took the initiative to be placed under house arrest in Wanyan Jun's mansion and made everyone ignore him, but who cleverly appeared at every important node.
The truth hidden under the iceberg has a tendency to surface because of the existence of a survivor.
"When I find out the truth, I have to skin this person! No... I'm afraid there are more than one! I have to use their heads to drink wine to relieve my anger and avenge my dead brothers!" Usha gritted his teeth and said, "It's over. Yan Jun, that idiot who fails to achieve anything but fails! He actually wants to suppress me - when I succeed, let him get out of here too!"
"The general is wise!"
"Those details are very cunning. We can't let them know that we are investigating this matter. I will arrange for you to recuperate secretly. The news of your return cannot be leaked."
"Yes, General."
——
Song Muchuan, who had been busy building ships for the past few days, finally sensed something was wrong.
The construction period given by Wanyan Jun was very tight, and a keel warship would be built in three months, which happened to coincide with Song Muchuan's final plan, so he devoted himself to it day and night.
Yucheng's army was hiding in the mountains, and there was no danger of being exposed for the time being. Normally they would not communicate, but this day he received a letter from Ying Huai to An Zhuang, asking him if he had received Nan Yi.
Song Muchuan had no idea that Nan Yi had entered Lidu Mansion!
Something went wrong, so he rushed to the Yucheng army camp overnight, only to find out that about ten days ago, Nan Yi suddenly asked to go to Lidu Mansion, and then news came back that he had to stay for a while because he had a mission in the city. But Ying Huai always felt a little strange. Bingzhusi had never told him about this matter... Because it was inconvenient for the Yucheng army to communicate with the outside world, things would always lag behind, but for ten days, there was no news about Nan Yi. Back.
While Ying Huai was sending a letter to Song Muchuan to inquire, he was also checking whether there was anything unusual in his military camp. This check didn't matter, but he actually found out a trick.
After being tortured, I found out that this was someone from Gui Lai Tang, and it was Gui Lai Tang who deceived Nan Yi into the city.
Song Muchuan arrived at this time and Ying Huai informed him of the incident.
Although it was early spring, Song Muchuan's back was soaked in cold sweat. Under his nose, he actually lost Nan Yi!
He immediately sent someone to follow Zhang Yue back.
The annex building of Hua Chao Pavilion burned down and has been repaired recently, but Zhang Yuehui still lives in the main building of Hua Chao Pavilion. He spends his days drinking, singing and dancing, and doesn't look any different.
The Return Hall seems to have a copper wall and an iron wall. It is difficult to invade and almost no useful information can be found.
When I first arrived in Song Muchuan, I found that Gui Lai Tang had bought a restaurant.
Originally, it was not unusual for a big merchant to buy a shop. But coincidentally, next to the restaurant is a private residence belonging to the Xie family.
——It was the house where Nan Yi was moved to another village by lying that she had a sudden illness in order to send Nan Yi away.
Song Muchuan stayed there for a few days and discovered that the restaurant would deliver meals and soups to the house every day through the private alley connected to the house. Xie Queshan would occasionally appear near this house.
This confused Song Muchuan - could the person in the house be Nan Yi? What are Xie Queshan and Zhang Yuehui doing?
He began to think of ways to sneak into this seemingly inconspicuous, but guarded house like an iron barrel.
……
However, there was a person who could enter the house at any time, but he lingered outside every day.
Zhang Yuehui would find a reason for himself every day why he couldn't go in today.
As soon as he approached the house, he became confused. I care about her recovery every day, but I still dare not see her. He was decisive and decisive, but he became a hesitant deserter in front of this door.
The first half of the crescent moon had risen into the night sky, and he still couldn't decide whether to move forward or backward.
After thinking about it, I felt that it was so late that she should be asleep, so she might as well forget it for today.
Unexpectedly, with a squeaking sound, the wooden door was opened.
Zhang Yuehui raised his eyes and saw a girl with black hair standing under the moon, looking at him quietly.
Only then did he realize that the magnolia flowers on the wall had bloomed at some point, filling his sleeves with a faint fragrance.
This long winter seems to have passed.
