Spring and Autumn GL
35. Blame
Recently, both Wu and Yue countries were relatively stable. Once Wu Zixu died, there was no fear in Fan Li's letters. Xi Shi and Zheng Dan received more and more letters. In addition, Xi Shi did receive A Zhi's letter of divorce. .Gradually, Xishi found that Fan Li's letters were no longer some usual greetings and family and country strategies, but the words became more and more ambiguous, which made her very worried.One day Zheng Dan came to look for Xi Shi excitedly with a piece of silk, and said as soon as he stepped into the house:
"Yi Guang, Yi Guang, Dr. Fan wrote again, look."
Xi Shi opened it and looked, and the words inside were clearly written, "I, Fan Li, only love Zheng Dan in this life. You have to do your best for us."
"Doctor Fan has become more and more daring in writing letters recently. I can see... Oh, really, why do you think he wrote all these things?"
Zheng Dan said lightly.Xi Shi looked at Zheng Dan, what she said was angry, but her face was full of complacency, obviously she was played to death by Fan Li.She thought it was "love", but he was just "molesting".This is the biggest misunderstanding of women.
"Don't be too concerned." Xi Shi said with a cold face.
Zheng Dan was splashed with cold water by Xi Shi, looked at Xi Shi with a blushing face, and asked instead:
"Why do you say that? Yes, yes, what did Doctor Fan write to you?"
Xishi said perfunctorily: "It's not like they are all writing about family, country and world, talking about national hatred and family hatred over and over again. It's very boring. It's not like you, you still have love for your children."
Zheng Dan blinked, and suddenly asked: "Then...you are willing to serve Fu Chai for the rest of your life? What will you do if one day the great cause is achieved? You have to leave a way out for yourself!"
Xi Shi shook her head: "The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. Let's talk about the future. It seems calm now, but in fact there are many crises. Do you still have time to think about the future?"
"I'm really worried about you. No matter what, you are my sister and the only relative I have in this world... As long as you ask, I will do anything for you, really."
Xi Shi suddenly asked for no reason: "In your eyes, are you and I more important, or Doctor Fan?"
Zheng Dan froze on the spot, not knowing how to answer.
Xi Shi hurriedly smiled awkwardly: "Look at what I asked, I really deserve to be hit..." After finishing speaking, she patted her cheek lightly.
Zheng Dan took Xi Shi's hand, rubbed her face, and said seriously: "If you have to compare, Yi Guang, you are more important."
Xi Shi didn't expect such an answer, she stared blankly at her with her mouth half-opened.Zheng Dan sighed softly, turned around and said:
"What I said is true. If you don't want me to marry Fan Li, I will never marry him. If you are in the same crisis as him, I will definitely save you first."
"……why?"
Zheng Dan pursed her lips: "Big...probably because you are my sister."
She explained something casually, then nodded to Xi Shi, and walked out of the West Palace slowly.Zheng Dan didn't know why he had such an idea, but felt suddenly uncomfortable in front of Xi Shi, so he had to run away.She obviously thinks about Fan Li on weekdays, but when she thinks of Xi Shi, she always has an inexplicable nostalgia in her heart... Probably, she is her only friend?Or, is it connected by blood?
Half a month later, rumors suddenly spread in the city, saying that there were women in the palace who were indiscreet. Some said that the palace maid had an affair with the King of Wu, and some said that the empress had an affair with outsiders.The rumors flowed into Fu Chai's ears, but he didn't care at first, but he felt more and more that the guards around him looked at him strangely, as if he was indiscreet.Fu Chai was very annoyed and determined to investigate the matter thoroughly, but after all, this is not a major matter for the family and the country, and it cannot be handed over to the ministers for investigation, so he had to hand over the matter to Zheng Dan, hoping that she could find out the truth.
Xi Shi told Zheng Dan about this a few days ago. Although Zheng Dan was surprised, he didn't feel that Xi Shi did something wrong, only that she was too brave.Now that Zheng Dan took over the matter, he suddenly became flustered. Fu Chai asked, this statement should always be given—but how could she really confess Xi Shi?
This day Zheng Dan was discussing with Xishi Azhi, unexpectedly Sun Taiyi came here uninvited, seeing Zheng Dan here, he was slightly surprised.
Xi Shi was very clever, and immediately knew that the doctor Sun might have heard the rumors and was afraid of hurting herself, so she came here to ask first.She laughed and invited Dr. Sun into the room, ordered Ah Zhi to make a pot of tea, and without avoiding Zheng Dan, she asked:
"Did Physician Sun hear something, and came to Yiguang to ask the teacher?"
Physician Sun hurriedly apologized: "No way, no way, I am just worried about my mother's poor health, and want to check up on my mother."
Xi Shi thought to herself that they were all grasshoppers on the same rope, and no one could escape, so she said frankly:
"Physician Sun doesn't need to be too polite. Sister Wujia is not an outsider. If you have something to say, it's okay to say it."
Physician Sun swallowed her saliva, glanced at Zheng Dan out of the corner of her eye, and saw that she really had no malice on her face, so she spoke cautiously:
"Your Majesty, I recently encountered some difficult and miscellaneous diseases. I remembered that I lent some medical books to my empress. I want to take them back and study them first."
Seeing that Sun Taiyi was too dishonest, Xi Shi shook her head lightly and said:
"It is true that I had an abortion privately, but the child is undoubtedly the King's—and I hope that Doctor Sun will keep his mouth shut."
Seeing that Xi Shi was so honest, Imperial Physician Sun immediately choked on his tea, coughed uncontrollably, and asked while coughing:
"Mother... how can you be like this, mother, why are you doing this!"
Xi Shi looked relaxed: "Yi Guang didn't do it on purpose, it's just that his body was abnormal, and he prescribed some random prescriptions according to the medical books you gave. I didn't expect that I was already pregnant, and the medicine was stronger, so I accidentally caused it. Just a miscarriage."
Doctor Sun's face turned red and then pale when he said these words, Xi Shi didn't blame him, but judging from the meaning of those words, it was clear that he wanted to drag himself into the water.
"Xiao Ruo, return the medical book to Doctor Sun."
Ah Zhi brought a bundle over, opened it on the table, and Doctor Sun checked it over, and there were quite a few rolls.Just about to stand up and say goodbye, Xi Shi said:
"Physician Sun, you must not let King Wu know about this matter, otherwise you and I will not be able to please you! You are a doctor, there must be some way to make things clear, right?"
Physician Sun raised his head: "I also ask your mother to enlighten me."
Xi Shi didn't speak, but Zheng Dan said: "I have already dealt with Mr. Bo Pi on this matter. You should go to the mansion to find him. We two girls can't think of any good way. Whether we can get away is up to everyone. rely on you."
Doctor Sun had no choice but to bow his head and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something and asked for pen and ink to write a prescription on silk:
"Your Majesty's body must be weak. According to this prescription, you will be able to recover soon. Don't leave any openings. I will take my leave first..."
"Walk slowly." Xi Shi laughed.
Sun Taiyi found the volume of "Women's Classics" and burned it when he got home, and hurried to Bopi's mansion without caring about it.When Bo Pi heard that Sun Taiyi had arrived, he knew what to do and invited him to the inner room.Imperial Physician Sun walked away quickly, and suddenly saw another person coming in behind him, and after a closer look, it turned out to be Fan Li.
Why is the doctor of the State of Yue in the Dazaifu of the State of Wu?Could it be that this matter has something to do with Fan Li - could it be that the child belongs to Fan Li?Bah, bah, bah, what's all this... Doctor Sun was thinking wildly, but he couldn't figure out what was going on with this strange combination.
Fan Li was candid: "Emperor Sun don't need to panic, I'm a doctor of the Yue Kingdom, and I'm an old friend with the Empress Xigong. If something happens to the Empress Xigong, it will definitely affect the friendship between Wu and Yue for many years, so whether it's public or private, I will We all have to come and take a look, and help the two of you make a plan."
Only then did Doctor Sun sit down with peace of mind, and discussed the countermeasures with the two of them.
Xi Shi and Zheng Dan didn't know what countermeasure they would come up with, so they had to wait patiently.On the second day, I suddenly heard that the main culprit had been found. Xi Shi slightly inquired, only to find out that it was a court lady who pleaded guilty overnight, saying that she had an affair with a man outside the palace, and she was afraid of being discovered, so she had an abortion without authorization.Xi Shi felt very strange, and hurried to Zheng Dan's mansion, only to see a maid in her early twenties kneeling on the ground with a ball of cloth stuffed in her mouth, her eyes full of horror.
She couldn't help but looked at Zheng Dan questioningly, Zheng Dan also looked confused, but looked nervously at the maid in front of her.
Bo Pi took out a piece of silk and handed it to Zheng Dan:
"This is a confession, and she has already been charged."
Zheng Dan opened the silk and took a look. It read:
"I am Xing'er, the maid in charge of the dining room of the Wu Palace. Because I was infatuated with a man outside the palace and had an affair with him, I accidentally became pregnant. I was afraid that the matter would be revealed, so I secretly prescribed medicine to abort..."
There is a bright red handprint in the lower right corner.
Zheng Dan never thought that Fan Li and Bo Pi would find a scapegoat, and he was a little annoyed. Seeing someone else, he pulled Bo Pi over, suppressed his anger and said in a low voice:
"What... what's going on here? It's enough to get rid of Yiguang, how can it harm people!"
Bo Pi said: "This is also a helpless strategy. Your Majesty can talk about it, but it can't stop the people talking. If you don't give an explanation, I'm afraid the rumors will not die down."
Zheng Dan gritted his teeth and thought for a while, then asked, "What will happen to her?"
Bo Pi said: "It's up to the king to deal with it. From my point of view, most of them will be sunk in Jiang..."
Zheng Dan stomped his feet anxiously, and desperately took off the cloth from the maid's mouth. The maid just yelled, but couldn't say a complete word.
Bo Pi said: "Physician Sun has already dumbed her down. Madam, you must not be naive, and you must not let her see the king!"
Zheng Dan really couldn't see the miserable scene of the palace lady, so he had to wave his hand and ask Bo Pi to take it out first, then he fell on the chair, hammered his chest and stamped his feet:
"Yiguang...it shouldn't be! It shouldn't be like this!"
Xi Shi frowned, thinking about today's affairs quickly, if she wanted to save this Xing'er, she must not be blatant. Rescuing people from under the noses of soldiers and common people is tantamount to pulling a tooth out of a tiger's mouth, and it is definitely not easy to do.There is only one way to save people secretly... Fortunately, there is another Azhi.
Thinking of this, Xi Shi pursed her lips, and said to Zheng Dan: "Don't worry, you just need to report the truth to Fucha and apply to send Xing'er alive, and I will have my own way to save her life."
Zheng Dan saw that Xishi looked sure, so he had no choice but to believe it. He picked up the pen and wanted to write, but the table was shaking with ink spots.By the time the petition was finished, Zheng Dan was already sweating all over his face.
"I killed countless people on the battlefield, and I didn't feel uneasy. Why can't a court lady fail today?"
Xi Shi said: "Because a soldier died for the country, you don't necessarily have any regrets, but Xing'er is truly innocent. It's normal for you to have doubts."
Zheng Dan sighed: "I often feel that I am soft-hearted. In fact, if it weren't for me, Fu Chai might not be able to come back with all his eyes... Am I not decisive enough?"
Xi Shi shook her head and said: "Benevolence is the greatest virtue... Now, I don't know... I can only do my best. I really hope that the Yue Kingdom will fight tomorrow, regardless of whether it wins or loses. In short, we don't have to suffer from this." .”
The author has something to say:
"Yi Guang, Yi Guang, Dr. Fan wrote again, look."
Xi Shi opened it and looked, and the words inside were clearly written, "I, Fan Li, only love Zheng Dan in this life. You have to do your best for us."
