1222, lucky
"It would be too stupid to expect you to save me even though I know what day it is!" Because I was too sober and rational, Xu Shu never had those unrealistic dreams.
When his life was at stake, Xu Shu was not her hope. Zhou Jin was a little disappointed, but more of it was self-blame and heartache. "So Xunzing Xiang was going to give Zhuang Li?"
"I have the only way! And I also know that the Queen Mother chose to take action today and almost cut off all possible ways of asking for help. I have no choice but to rely on others. I just don't want to die without understanding. If you have a conscience, you can avenge me..." Xu Shu looked at Zhou Jin resentfully. To put it bluntly, it was indeed because of Zhou Jin that she was resentful by Queen Mother Fu.
"It's me that's not good..." Zhou Jin rubbed Xu Shu's head with regret, but found that many of Xu Shu's black hair were burnt with fire. "I came back from the Taimiao sacrifice. Zhuang Li suddenly told me that he smelled the fragrance of searching on the palace maid next to the empress dowager. He said that it was your special spice, which would not dissipate when it came to water, and it lasted for a long time. Usually when you use this fragrance, you will encounter danger... So he immediately grabbed the palace maid and asked, and found that the palace maid was Xuehuai after disguised. Sure enough, he asked about your whereabouts from Xuehuai."
"I guessed that Xuehuai would go to the Empress Dowager to report, so I tried my luck. I didn't expect that I was so lucky..."
Yes! Her luck is really good, and someone really went to save her!
"I'm lucky..." He almost went to him again.
After a long time, Xu Shu whispered, "Actually, I hope you will save me in my heart..." Unexpectedly, Zhou Jin really went to save her...
"I know!" Zhou Jin smiled with satisfaction.
When Xu Shu saw him, she said, "You are finally here." It can be seen that Xu Shu was looking forward to him to save her, but she knew in her heart that it was completely different from hearing her say it.
"It's really you who saved me. If you hadn't reminded me last time, I wouldn't have carried the storm fragrance with you! But I was careless. I didn't expect that the Empress Dowager would actually use the name of the Empress to make Xuehuai dress up as Madam Yuan. The Zheng family knows that I was summoned by the Empress today. If she really succeeded, there would be a rift between the Empress and the Zheng family!"
The Empress Dowager's move is really a success! If she succeeds, first of all, she will eliminate Xu Shu, a major concern, and secondly, she can blame Gao Zhinan for murdering Xu Shu. Besides Gao Zhinan gives way to Fu Xinyao, she will shake the relationship between the Zheng family and the Empress.
"Don't worry, Xuehuai should have been punished!"
"What's wrong with her?"
"I don't know! It's Zhuang who left to deal with it!"
Xuehuai fell into Zhuang Li's hands again. Judging from past experience, Zhuang Li had no good feelings for Xuehuai, and Xuehuai participated in the Queen Mother's murder of herself, which was probably in danger.
Xu Shu sighed, "Alas, she is also a poor person. She is ordered by the Queen Mother and has to do some things, no matter whether she wants it or not... Speaking of which, I still don't know her real name!"
"These are nothing more important. The most important thing now is to recover from the injury! Do you know? Hum?"
"Well... cough cough..." Xu Shu nodded, and finally couldn't help coughing several times. She just talked to Zhou Jin and was always patient of the discomfort in her chest, but she still couldn't help it.
Xu Shu covered her mouth with her hands and coughed, but she didn't put down her hands after coughing. Zhou Jin felt abnormal and pulled Xu Shu's hand over. Xu Shu wanted to refuse, but she was unable to resist at all. Zhou Jin forced her to spread Xu Shu's hand away. Sure enough, she saw the black and red blood in her palm and was shocked, "Xu Shu..."
"Shh~ What's the point of fussing!" Xu Shu wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and coughed up blood stasis. Instead, she felt much more comfortable. "Although the fire today did not burn me seriously, smoke and dust have entered my lungs, so it is normal to cough up blood. What's more, my heart and lungs were injured in my early years and could not be stimulated. Too cold and hot will cause heart and lung discomfort!"
Can too cold and too hot cause cardiopulmonary discomfort?
Zhou Jin couldn't help but remember the time in Pingliang City. It was the first time he saw Xu Shu vomiting blood, but later Xu Shu told him that it was just that she bit the tip of her tongue. Was Xu Shu lying to him again? What did she hide from herself? Zhou Jin's eyes darkened.
Xu Shu looked at the dark blood in one hand and frowned in disgust, but she couldn't find a veil to wipe it, and her brows became even tighter.
Zhou Jin hurriedly wiped her with a veil. As he wiped her, his eyes became redder and redder, "You have a good rest first, I'll ask the palace maid to change your clothes. I... will see you later!"
He still has this matter to no end!
"Are you going to find Gao Zhinan?" Xu Shu grabbed Zhou Jin, obviously guessing what Zhou Jin was going to do.
"Well! This time, she won't want to deny it!" Although Gao Zhinan gave an explanation, it was obviously just her quibbling.
Both people and stolen...
"Was she still waiting outside when you came?"
"yes……"
"Is she waiting to see my body with her own eyes?" Xu Shu couldn't help but sneer, "It seems that she is even more vicious than me!" In front of interests, there was indeed no eternal friend.
"Okay, you have a rest, she will pay the price!" Zhou Jin was about to help Xu Shu lie down.
"Wait a minute!" Xu Shu struggled to get out of bed.
"Don't move, lie back quickly!" Although Xu Shu was not seriously injured by fire, the blood just now made Zhou Jin worry!
"I'm fine!" Xu Shu waved her hand and insisted on standing up, but it was Zhou Jin that she could stand firm. "Wait, I want to see her in person!" She wanted to see Gao Zhinan's fate in person.
"...Oh! Okay! You change your clothes first!" Zhou Jin agreed helplessly. He never had the heart to refuse Xu Shu.
Fortunately, the palace is a place with many women, so it is very easy to find a new dress suitable for Xu Shu to wear. Although the styles and colors are too luxurious, which is very different from Xu Shu's previous preferences for dressing, Xu Shu still accepts it. Moreover, Xu Shu's face is not very good now, and her clothes are simpler and more dull. She wears brighter, which makes her look more brilliant.
Because it was in the palace, Xu Shu was not willing to reveal her whereabouts, so she didn't want the palace maids to serve her. She trembled for a long time before putting on her clothes, and her hair was just a loose bun, which had a bit of lazy smell.
Seeing that Xu Shu was unable to walk steadily, Zhou Jin felt particularly distressed, "Anyway, Gao Zhinan couldn't run away even if he was bet in the back hall. Why don't you wait for you to get better?"
Xu Shu shook her head, "It's better to solve it as soon as possible! Avoid the nights grow and the dreams are too long! Then, there is another thing you can do!"
