Chapter 331: Woe? Good fortune?
For more than 100 years, most of the dignitaries and dignitaries set up their mansions in Xicheng, while the merchants lived in the east because of the convenience of the waterway of Chongwenmen, and over time, Xuanwumen Street and Chongwenmen Street presented a different scene. On the one hand, there is an endless stream of carts transporting goods, on the other hand, there are all kinds of carriages, horses, and sedan chairs competing for beauty, and even the thin old man who is holding a small donkey may also be a three-grade official, so it is on this street, and no one dares to beat the horse and gallop.
But at this moment, there was such a carriage and a few horsemen galloping towards him. The pedestrians along the road were all busy dodging to the side, and there were still people who couldn't dodge or fell or were knocked away, shouting and screaming for a while. Many people came up and scolded in annoyance, and the driver of the car shouted in a trembling voice as if he had just woken up from a dream: "Get out of the way, get out of the way, this horse, this horse is startled!" ”
Chen Lan in the car easily understood what was shouting outside, and he was completely stunned for a while. The sturdy wooden planks of the carriage creaked at a rare high speed, and even if she tightly held the handrail on the side, it was difficult to offset the strong bumpy feeling. The wind seemed to burrow desperately into the car through every crack of the doors and roller blinds, and in an instant, fear and cold made her face pale as it had never been.
"Hold on, don't let go!"
The sudden reminder from the side made her react at once, and she turned her head to find that Jiang's mouth was tightly pursed, and the hand holding the right armrest had been pinched to the point that the joints were white, but she still signaled to her jaw, she suddenly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and nodded strugglingly. At that moment, her newly completely stiffened mind finally had some open space, but she still couldn't think about anything.
Just as she could almost feel her breath stop, there was a sudden loud shout outside. At that moment, she only felt that the whole person suddenly rolled forward uncontrollably, and then her forehead hit the roller shutter in the car door in front of her, and the hand that was originally holding the armrest involuntarily let go. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw that the Jiang family also fell towards her" Finding that the car door was already crumbling, she immediately struggled to move her shoulders, and stretched out her hand to take a belt, but after all, she couldn't help the force" The two of them fell together.
At the moment when the car door creaked and was about to break, she felt that the car that had tilted so badly suddenly straightened, and the person who was about to fall out suddenly involuntarily fell backwards with Jiang. I don't know what I touched this bump, my back and legs hurt everywhere, but more than that, it was an indescribable fear.
When it's a mess inside the car, it's not much better outside the car. But I saw that there was an extra noose on the front leg of the startled horse, and after struggling to move forward for a while, "it fell in the direction of the wheel like pushing a mountain of gold and a jade pillar, and behind the tight rope was a tall boy holding the rope." Seeing that the wheel could not stop the gravity of the horse from falling to the ground, it was about to break. The other very large man of the Black Tower strode forward, cut the reins of the horse with a sharp sword, and then reached out and pulled the horse aside, and when he pushed the horse aside, he straightened the carriage that was about to fall completely to the ground. In front of everyone's eyes, his face suddenly turned red from overexertion.
However, after sliding for more than a dozen steps, the carriage finally came to a stop in the middle of the road. The tall young man who had been taken out with a lasso in his hand had already stood up straight, "Dropped the rope in his hand and strode to the front of the car, frowning and looking at the man who was about to speak, he only heard the big man of the black tower opposite anxiously shouting at the carriage: "Old lady, madam! ”
Chen Lan, who was in a state of shock, didn't feel the head she had just hit just now, and was struggling to reach out to help the Jiang clan, "When she heard the somewhat familiar voice outside, her heart, which had already reached the mouth, suddenly fell to the ground again. Seeing that Jiang Shi stretched out his hand and pressed his waist, her face was a little unsightly, she hurriedly responded: "Is it Ah Hu outside?" ”
"It's my big worm!" After an urn replied angrily, the voice hesitated, "How are the old lady and lady now?" This car must not be sitting! ”
Hearing this, Chen Lan hurriedly pulled the cloak on Jiang and herself, and didn't have time to think about whether a small car came over, so she pulled up the innermost layer of roller blinds, and when she pushed the car door, the difference in light between inside and outside made her squint involuntarily, and she was about to move her numb legs and feet to jump out of the car, when two almost identical shouts came from behind.
"Old lady, ma'am!"
It's Aunt Yun and Aunt Liu!
Chen Lan breathed a long sigh of relief, and when the two familiar figures appeared in front of her, she hurriedly motioned for them to help the Jiang family first, and then staggered out of the car with their support. She had barely walked a few steps to her feet when she heard a creaking behind her, followed by a heavy thud. When she turned her head, she saw that the entire carriage had fallen to the ground at an angle.
At this moment, the entourage behind has all caught up, just looking at this place, it is inevitable that they are all a little stunned. Chen Lan saw the somewhat grizzled Qin Hu standing not far from the carriage, clapped his hands, and was about to come over, when he suddenly looked around, left them and immediately ran in the other direction, and after a while, he pulled out a person from the crowd.
"Old lady, madam, it was this strong man who threw the guide rope, otherwise I would not have been able to catch up with my fast legs just now."
"Ah Hu, thank you this time!"
Chen Lan saw that the person who was dragged by Qin Hu was full of discomfort, and he was still desperately breaking free all the way, and the shock at the moment of life and death just now was unconsciously fading a lot, and he actually smiled. When the two of them approached, she suddenly felt that the cold-faced young man next to Qin Hu was a little familiar, and after staring at it twice, she immediately recognized it.
Isn't this Xiao Lang who traveled with King Jing that day?
"Yes...... Xiao Gong Yao? ”
The tall young man couldn't help but change his face when he heard this, looked at the young woman in front of him, and vaguely felt that he had an impression, he frowned at first, and then suddenly showed an embarrassed expression. When he saw the middle-aged lady on the side also walking over with the support of a mother, he coldly shook off Qin Hu and raised his hand.
"I have something to do, so I'm leaving."
"Uh...... "Thank you Xiao Gongzi for your help."
Chen Lan only had time to say such a sentence, and when she saw that the person didn't even stop, and suddenly disappeared into the crowd of onlookers, she couldn't help but feel a little dazed. At this time, Jiang's voice came from the side: "What, it's an acquaintance?" ”
This layer of relationship is really inexplicable for a while, Chen Lan nodded before he planned to vaguely go over first, Jiang sighed again and said: "This carriage is just across the road like this, after all, it is not a way, let them pack it aside, and then go to the road just now to see if there are any deaths and injuries, and then ask the doctor and the official...... Let's find a place to rest first, you just hit a few times lightly, and my waist is a little unbearable, so I have to let people take a look. ”
Jiang was right, Chen Lan was about to agree, when he suddenly glanced at the galloping horse that was lying on the ground and couldn't get up, and the carriage that was completely scattered. Well, the frightening just now came suddenly, she pressed her chest, frowned and nodded: "What my mother said is that only the wreckage of the horse and the carriage can't be disposed of at will." Our garage and stables have always been taken care of by safe people, "How can you be so good and suddenly shocked?" If it weren't for the fact that Xiao Gongzi and Qin Hu happened to be there today, maybe .........
When Aunt Liu heard this, she immediately bent her knees and blessed: "Madam, don't worry, Master Tiger is already watching there."
Hearing this, Chen Lan turned her head and said, "Seeing that Qin Hu, who had chased Xiao Gongzi a few steps just now, was squatting next to the healthy horse that had fallen to the ground, as if she was examining something, she suddenly felt a deep chill on her body. Although this is not the first danger, compared to the ridiculous assassination in the plum garden of the Jin Palace, the assassination of Dongchanghou when the queen left the palace on the Qianqiu Festival, this thrilling accident happened suddenly without warning, but the thrilling feeling was incomparable to the first two times.
The onlookers on the side of the road immediately dispersed after the official servants arrived. And Chen Lan and Jiang, who found an open-air tea shop to rest temporarily, heard that the startled carriage just now came all the way, "When they were injured by more than a dozen, their faces were suddenly covered with frost." Therefore, when Aunt Yun came over and said that the head of the Shuntian Mansion said that he was going to help clean up the debris of the carriage and the startled horse that was foaming at the mouth, Chen Lan immediately shook his head.
"You don't need anyone to help you with these things! Aunt Yun, you immediately send a message to the county lord's courtyard and ask your mother if you have any good veterinary recommendations. As for the head of the Shuntian Mansion, give me a back, and say that we will handle this matter properly. First of all, gather all the injured people together and send them to the best hospital nearby" and remember to let the people around you follow and testify. Then, after counting the severity of the injuries one by one and making a good arrangement, Chen Lan finally felt that his mouth was dry, and the sense of powerlessness suddenly became stronger. Although she could barely hold on, she said" She noticed the myriad different stares in the crowd of onlookers, and her head suddenly became even more dizzy.
Act of God? **? Fortune and misfortune rely on, misfortune and blessing lurk, today I met a nobleman, she and her mother-in-law are also blessed people, no matter what, they survived, and fortunately, there are no innocent people who die!
Thinking of this, she no longer forced herself to parry the lingering dizziness, and leaned into Aunt Yun's arms. Jiang Shiyuan was nodding at Aunt Yun, but at this time, she suddenly found that Chen Lan was actually a crooked person, she was stunned for a moment and hurriedly stretched out her hand. Fortunately, Aunt Yun next to her also hurriedly made a move, Rao was like this, and when she found that Chen Lan had fainted, a large group of people were still in a hurry.
Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace East Warm Pavilion.
In the huge room, there was only the sound of the emperor turning the rustling paper from time to time, and no one dared to say anything about it. Suddenly, there was a sound of asking to see outside, and immediately after, a middle-aged eunuch hurried in the door.
"Your Majesty, the patriarch of the Yang clan knelt down in person outside the thousand-step corridor of the Great Chu Sect, presenting a ...... Mrs. Please. ”
Because the iron coupon of Runing Bo has been seized, the former Mrs. Runing Bo has no qualifications to be called Mrs. Tai, so the eunuch didn't know what to call for a while, and it took a long time for him to finally find a reason for himself Yang Jinzhou gave three generations of gifts, Mrs. Runing Bo still has a super life, so the name of this second Mrs. Tai is naturally useless, and now she has lost that name, and it is not a big mistake to call others Mrs. Tai with a little light.
"Oh, the Yang clan patriarch has already been elected?"
The Emperor groaned slightly, nodded and gestured for it to be presented. However, after the middle-aged eunuch bowed down and sent the fold, he hesitated for a while, and then lowered his voice and said: "Your Majesty, after the election of the patriarch of the Yang clan, Mrs. Yang and the county lord of Haining were walking on the road, and the horse driving was suddenly frightened. Mrs. Yang sent Aunt Yun to the Tai Hospital to invite the imperial doctor, and Imperial Doctor Lin had already gone to ......"
Before he could finish speaking, he saw that the emperor had changed color, and his eyes were full of terrible anger. Startled, he quickly lowered his head, and after a while, he heard a heavy voice overhead.
"Ordered someone to inquire about the news at any time, and the carriage and horses should be carefully inspected, and if there is any news, it will be reported immediately......... Also, let Yang Jinzhou immediately return to his eyebrows! ”
After all, the servants of Shuntianfu did not dare to die too much with a second-class high-ranking official, and the injured people received generous pensions from their families" and were sent to a medical center under the witness of many onlookers, and the once boiling Xuanwumen Street gradually calmed down. With Chen Lan's previous instructions, Aunt Liu, who was ordered to stay behind to deal with the aftermath, was full of energy, "When she commanded a group of people to move the horse corpse to the side of the road, and sent someone to take care of it, she immediately said something politely to the onlookers, and then lingered in the hospital for a long time. And as the sun moved westward, many words gradually spread.
"This is really a sin, those good people are walking on the road, but they have suffered a flying disaster, these dignitaries really don't care about the lives of our people!"
"What kind of flying disaster" has just slipped into the hospital to see, God estimates, the most serious injury is the broken bone, the lightest injury is only a little skin, but the lightest "Mirror Garden is a compensation of twenty taels of silver, twenty taels!" ”
Corresponding to the envious expression on the speaker's face holding two fingers, the people around him were also full of eager eyes. Not only that, but the person who spoke also spat on the stars and said as if adding fuel and vinegar: "That's not all, you can all see the aunt who is in charge of cooking from beginning to end, she was served by the former queen of Kunning Palace, what kind of person is that, actually serving this current Mrs. Yang?" You can all see what happened when the two got out of the car, it would have been a deliberate ride, "That's not looking for death!" In my opinion, it is estimated that according to the current momentum, "it is very likely that someone is finding fault!" ”
When there was a lot of talk on the street, there was a panic in the mirror garden. Chen Lan was unconscious when he came back, and the Jiang family was no better, and the beating spirit was crooked on the kang in the east house of the Yiqing Pavilion, only when Imperial Doctor Lin came over, she politely refused the intention of showing herself first, and sent the person straight to the West House. It wasn't until Imperial Doctor Lin came into the room after a while that she sat up straight.
Imperial Doctor Lin.........
"The county lord's foundation is not the best, although he has been taking medicine this year and exercising his muscles and bones, he still can't make up for the previous losses. Today I was frightened at first, and then I bumped into some more, and most importantly, I bumped into my head again. I remember that at the beginning of the year, the Lord once fell into the frozen pool and broke his head, and now it is like this, but I am afraid. The more Jiang listened, the more frightened he became, and finally hurriedly asked, "Could it be that she is going to have some disease at a young age?" Also, when exactly will this wake up? ”
"Not really. As for awakening, it will not be good for a while. Imperial Doctor Lin hurriedly shook his head, "It's just that the county lord has spent too much energy, and his foundation is not good, so he is afraid of a loss of vitality, so he has to recuperate." But the old lady should not only worry about the county lord first, let me take the pulse for you first. ”
Although the leader nodded, the Jiang family was still worried, and when she saw Imperial Doctor Lin put her right hand and then her left hand, she couldn't help but ask with some hesitation: "I think that my daughter-in-law has always looked frail, so since she and Brother Quan got together, I gave her the prescription she used before, so that she could recuperate and think about the child again." Could it be that this recipe doesn't fit her physique......"
"The old lady doesn't have to worry too much." Imperial Doctor Lin put down his hand, and only then did he owe it" "That Aunt Ziyun and Aunt Liu have shown me before, they are all very proper, and the effect is comparable to those prescriptions in the imperial pharmacy. However, the old lady was also frightened today, and she had to use a dose of medicinal decoction to calm her nerves. I think that Aunt Yun and Aunt Liu have seen it, so there will be no external injuries that hurt the muscles and bones, if there are bruises and contusions on the body, I still have a few bottles of external medicine here. ”
Imperial Doctor Lin worked in the Imperial Pharmacy, and since he couldn't wait here all the time, he explained the special requirements of the decoction and the medicine introduction, etc., and then retired and left. And the Jiang family finally fell asleep after a long time in his heart. I don't know how long it took for her to feel someone gently pushing her, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that it was Zhuang's mother.
"Old lady, the master is back, the master is back!"
Hearing this, Jiang almost jumped up: "Brother Quan is back?" Where are the people?" ”
"I'm running inside, and the mother-in-law who reported the news is only one step faster than him at most!"
As soon as Zhuang's mother said this, she saw Yang Jinzhou lift the curtain and enter the door, and hurriedly avoided the side. And Jiang saw Yang Jinzhou take two steps forward and suddenly knelt down, "She hurriedly pressed his shoulder gently: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back!" I don't have anything to do, you go and see your daughter-in-law, maybe she will wake up when she sees you. ”
"Mother, you really don't care...... "......"
"At that time, fortunately, your daughter-in-law blocked a block, otherwise I would have fallen out of the car directly, what does it matter now! Quick, go into the house and see her" Talk to her more, and maybe she will wake up! ”
"Go to ......"
Seeing that Yang Jinzhou took a deep breath, he immediately kowtowed and rushed into the room like a gust of wind" Jiang sighed and withdrew his hand, and then leaned on the pillow. Without waiting for Zhuang's mother to say anything, she shook her hand: "Don't say anything, now I just hope that my daughter-in-law is safe and sound, and this body can be recuperated as soon as possible............ Ah, Ah Hu just came back with an escort, and I haven't been able to take care of him, I'm really dizzy! Go and invite him to the huā room, and I'll go and thank him myself. ”
"Old lady, you still have several ...... on you"
"It's all bumps, where it's so expensive! The grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring, not to mention the grace of saving lives, where can there not even be a word of thanks? Don't be wordy, "Go and invite someone to the huā hall, and I'll go out immediately." ”
In the west room, the sharp-eyed Yun'er got off the pedal with socks on, and saw Yang Jinzhou rushing into the house, and hurriedly reminded others to avoid it. Sure enough, I saw that my uncle didn't seem to see them at all, "I didn't even have time to take off my shoes, so I stepped on the pedal in front of the bed and went straight in, she couldn't help but smile secretly, a few girls, you look at me" Finally, they tiptoed back to the door at the same time, but they remembered that Chen Lan had not yet woken up, "They didn't dare to go out directly after all."
Sitting in front of the bed, Yang Jinzhou saw Chen Lan lying on his back, his eyes closed, his brows furrowed slightly, and he didn't know when one hand had been placed outside, so he couldn't help but hold that hand gently, and it took a while to gently put it back into the quilt. Reaching out and brushing the hair that was scattered across her forehead, he couldn't help but take a deep breath as he remembered the violent impulse he had felt when he had been alarmed by Chad.
"Lanlan, Lou is back......"
"Brother Luo is going to get married after the Chinese New Year, didn't you say last time that you would prepare a congratulatory gift? Wake up quickly, there's not much time left, we have to pick ............ together."
"You're going to be in time for next year, you know? I'm ready to give you a gift......"
"And Xiaosi, if he knew that you were injured, he was afraid that he would rush to the Mirror Garden to fight with me...... He's been so competitive, isn't he just trying to make you happy? ”
Although there was a soft sound after a long time, several girls by the door could hear it clearly, and while they looked at each other, their faces gradually turned red. I don't know who hit the head, but after all, a few people tiptoed up the curtain and slipped out of the door, and only when the curtain fell and looked at each other did someone sigh lightly.
"If my lord didn't have so many errands and accompanied his wife every day, how good it would be."
On the side, Yun'er snorted softly: "Haven't you heard a word, if you don't see each other for a day, it's like a stranger to see each other every day." After a long time apart, the relationship between husband and wife is better, do you understand? ”
Although he had already bumped into Imperial Doctor Lin on the way back to Mirror Garden, and even stopped him directly to ask for a good question, but at this moment, looking at the delicate Chen Lan, Yang Jinzhou only felt a surge in his heart, and couldn't help but turn his head away suddenly. Suddenly, he heard something suddenly in his ears, and when he looked closely, he saw that although his wife's eyes were still closed, the hand that had just been put into the quilt was actually stretched out again, and even grabbed the edge of the quilt tightly, and his mouth seemed to be muttering something in a low voice.
No matter what, he couldn't tell the difference, Yang Jinzhou hurriedly sat down, and simply brought a quilt to hold Chen Lan in his arms and tighten it. Seeing that she struggled for a while and then did not move, and then tilted her head comfortably against his shoulder, and the face that was still full of fear just now stretched, he stared at her for a long time, and suddenly gently hummed a love song that Zaixing used to hum with those soldiers when they were fine. Although he had almost forgotten the lyrics, the tone was never out of tune.
He snorted for a long time, and the few girls who were guarding outside waited and listened and listened, and finally dozed off when they finally met their heads, until there was a commotion outside, and someone woke them up one by one, and the young girl's family rubbed her eyes and quickly stood up straight.
"Be in good spirits, there will be nobles later!" Aunt Yun, who spoke, saw that Yun'er's face was still a little confused, so she pondered for a moment and added, "Don't ask anything, the old lady has already rested, don't be alarmed, you all retreat when the time comes!" ”
