Xu Guang was submissive on the surface and obeyed Jiang Nan's words, but his restraint on her never relaxed even a little bit. Instead, it became more and more strict.
There are guards patrolling both inside and outside Yaoguang Courtyard day and night.
Jiang Nan was not in a hurry, he was cheerful all day long and never made excessive demands.
On this day, Xu Guang brought someone here. Looking from a distance, he was wearing the same maid uniform as Yueying.
When he got closer, Jiang Nan couldn't help but sit up straight.
"Wu Qi, why are you here?"
There were injuries on Wu Qi's face and fingers, obviously from torture.
"lady……"
As soon as Wu Qi opened her mouth, she was interrupted by Xu Guang: "This is Your Highness the Princess."
"Yes!" Wu Qi seemed to be very obedient to Xu Guang and shouted again, "Princess, my brother and I were dead soldiers of Baigui Camp. Gu Yang rebelled and went to the Imperial Capital to seek refuge in Nanliang. We had no choice but to escape to Leshan and fight all the way. It was all intercepted and killed by the imperial court, but fortunately we all survived."
"I heard that when the princess was in Yunzhou, she fell in love with her at first sight and liked her very much. The old minister decided to let her accompany the princess to relieve her boredom!" Xu Guang said with a smile.
"Have a heart."
After Xu Guang left, Jiang Nan glanced at Yueying and said nothing to Wu Qi.
Wu Qi also looked ordinary.
During dinner, Jiang Nan went to the kitchen.
Grandpa Tang was wearing an apron and holding a spoon in his right hand. Jiang Huai was giving instructions.
I don’t know what to point out.
Although grandpa Tang is stupid, he is good at cooking. Under Jiang Huai's instructions, he was busy without even touching the ground.
"Huai Wa'er..."
"How many times have I told you not to call me that again!"
"But when you were a child, you would laugh when I called you Huai Wa'er!"
"How young is that? Two or three years old?! How old am I now?" Jiang Huai yelled at Grandpa Tang's head. He was so scared that Grandpa Tang shrank his shoulders and held the large cooking spoon in his hand. Also fell to the ground.
A look of grievance.
"Go! Fetch water, the stove is about to burn!" Jiang Huai shouted loudly.
"Dad!" Jiang Nan shouted. Yueying had already picked up a bucket of water and poured it into the stove. White smoke was rising, blocking the sight of both parties.
While Yueying was busy at the stove, Jiang Nan whispered to Wu Qi: "It's impossible for the prince to send someone to kill you. What happened?"
"Ye Chengcheng rebelled in the north, and the Imperial Capital wanted to send troops to quell the rebellion. Leshan City took the opportunity to close the city gates and prohibit merchants from entering and exiting. My brother and I sneaked in over the mountains. Unexpectedly, the city was so heavily guarded. I was arrested, Liang Haodu They tortured me and tried to kill me, but it was Xu Guang who saved me!"
Hearing this, Jiang Nan was horrified, but her face remained calm. She had no information here, and neither Xu Guang nor Liang Hao would let her know any news about the Imperial Capital.
Ye Chengcheng actually rebelled?
Jiang Nan frowned slightly, and the smoke on the stove was almost gone. She asked again: "Why did Xu Guang save you?"
"Before leaving the capital, the prince said that if his life was in danger, he could save his life by mentioning your name!"
"...?" Jiang Nan inadvertently showed a surprised look.
After the white smoke cleared, Yueying walked towards Jiang Nan. Wu Qi lowered her head and whispered quickly: "The emperor's grandson is well taken care of by His Highness, you don't have to worry."
"Yeah." Jiang Nan let out a soft sound in his throat. Seeing his grandpa's hands covered with blisters, he frowned and said to Jiang Huai, "Dad, is this how you use grandpa? Aren't you afraid of thunder?"
"If the sky thunder is going to strike, it will strike you first!" Jiang Huai hummed and walked away.
Jiang Nan was stunned. In front of Yueying, he couldn't threaten him with returning to Beijing, so he could only swallow his anger.
"Huai Wa'er, Huai Wa'er, wait for me!" Grandpa Tang chased Jiang Huai again.
"Go and cook, don't follow me! Don't call me that!" Jiang Huai covered his head, his cursing voice drifting away.
Jiang Nan lowered his eyes and smiled.
The poison of the holy water takes effect late at night.
Jiang Nan woke up suddenly, her internal organs twitching in pain.
She had seen Zhang Quan's appearance when he was poisoned, and she didn't know if she would become like that too.
"what……"
Jiang Nan rolled on the bed, sweating profusely.
Yueying has been guarding her every step of the way, and when she sees this, she rushes out of the door.
Wu Qi took the opportunity to come to the bedside, pinched a pill out of nowhere and stuffed it into Jiang Nan's mouth.
"Madam, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that although this medicine cannot detoxify the poison of the holy water, it can relieve the pain."
Jiang Nan swallowed, her eyes were scarlet, her teeth bit her lip, and blood oozed from the corners of her mouth. She told Wu Qi: "Close the door."
"Yes."
Wu Qi closed the door and returned to the bed again, holding a cup of hot water in her hand.
The medicine took effect, and Jiang Nan gradually felt the pain subside. After drinking tea, she whispered: "Didn't I say that Xu Guang searched you when he asked you to come? Where did you get the medicine?"
Wu Qi smiled awkwardly and said: "I wrapped the medicine, stuffed it in my teeth, and got away with it..."
Before she finished speaking, Jiang Nan retched and almost vomited. Wu Qi quickly patted her on the back and apologized repeatedly.
"I'm sorry, madam, I really can't help it. My brother wants to stuff it in his butt. I don't agree!"
Jiang Nan retched even more violently.
Wu Qi didn't dare to say anything.
"Where is Gu Sanjiu?" Jiang Nan came over slowly, with a fierce look in his eyes, wanting to kill him.
"He is well hidden. Madam, don't worry. He is very familiar with Leshan. Princess Donghua came with us. He did not come to rescue me this time because he wanted to take care of Princess Donghua!"
"So, on the surface you are loyal to Xu Guang, but in fact you and your brother are loyal to the prince?"
Wu Qi was stunned for a moment, then raised her eyebrows and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that being loyal to the Crown Princess means being loyal to the Crown Prince. He also said that the Crown Princess is his life, and he left his life in Leshan."
"..." Jiang Nan was stunned, his dark eyes shining with water in the darkness.
Liang Haodu's voice came from outside the locked door.
"Actually, you can beg for mercy. I won't let you do anything too extreme. I just want you to be obedient."
Jiang Nan signaled Wu Qi to stop talking, and she shouted toward the door: "Get away."
"I don't know what's wrong."
Liang Haodu's footsteps faded away, but Yueying entered the house without knocking. Jiang Nan couldn't feel the pain at all, so she lay on the crack of the door and looked out.
At the hanging flower door, there seemed to be two figures intersecting.
Jiang Nan gently unlocked the door bolt, and she and Wu Qi hid under the hanging flower door, carefully looking out through the flower window.
The moon shadow bows its head and stands.
"You shouldn't go to me like this and leave Wu Qi alone inside. You must guard her every step of the way and report every word and deed to me! You shout, there are so many people outside, not enough for you to control?" Liang Haodu's words were harsh, but his tone was quite gentle.
Jiang Nan had known for a long time that Yueying's real master was Liang Haodu. Ever since Wu Qi came, Yueying had looked at her like she had eyes.
When I go to the latrine to defecate, I am followed by someone passing me paper.
