The Governor is Sick

In the twilight of the drum, Ah Chu sat at the window of Linghua and looked at the courtyard. It was raining outside in Lili, and Ruixianghua in the rain curtain slumped her head.

A few days ago, the Dongchang Fanzi suddenly visited the night and turned the Yunxian Tower over. All brokers and prostitutes were rushed under the patio, and they were crowded into a bunch, like frightened chicks. Fanzi came to the door, it was tantamount to evil spirits coming to the door to ask for his life. Everyone saw the black shuffled legs softened, and they crouched on the ground, no one dared to move.

Ah Chu was also in the same group, looking around in horror with her sisters. She saw her son's body dragged out by Fanzi and lay across the bluestone ground. The old woman's mottled Bai Fan's face was completely silent, and she was so energetic that she hadn't noticed her old days. Now she died, her face was paralyzed, like a mud.

The sisters and sisters all covered their mouths, showing a pair of shocked eyes. Then a corpse was dragged out, and A Chu immediately recognized it. It was Xiahou, her sister-in-law. Ah Chu wants to run over, her sister pulls her tightly, and several clients also stop her from letting her move. She could only cover her mouth and weep silently. The world seemed to be in a mess and suddenly changed.

Fanzis ran in and out of the courtyard of the east and west, and found out many medicine jars, jugs, and even flower bottles with bliss. When everything was thrown in the middle of the courtyard, the women's faces turned white. The government has long banned the sale and purchase of bliss fruit. Although gambling brothels still have circulation, they are locked up in jail once they are found.

The leader's head turned the bottles and jars with a knife, narrowed his eyelids and glanced at the horrified women, and snorted: "Sure enough, they are all Galanists. Take them all away!"

The sound of cries shook all the time, and Ah Chu was panicked. Where did so many bliss come from? Does she have to go to jail before? Her sister cried and begged: "My lord is clear, those were given to us by our mother. What kind of blue we don't know!"

Fanzis turned a deaf ear, and the clients were singled out to stand aside, and the people were lined up and pushed out of the yard. The captain rushed behind with a whip, and it looked like he was driving a group of animals. The women's charming charms are usually gone, and the soft words have turned into screaming wailing.

Ah Chu was dizzy and shoved, and when she was about to leave the yard, she remembered that she still had the savior Xia Houyu. Bustling with her skirt stumbled and kneeling under the whip, she mourned: "Master, the daughter is the old knowledge of Shen Shen, please let the daughter see him, he must be willing to save me!"

"Are you a chick?" The stall on the side came over.

"Yes, it's me." Ah Chu nodded quickly.

"You don't have to follow, go there." The stallion pointed to the bottom of the gallery.

The rest of the life after the disaster was too late, Ah Chu heard her sister asking for her help behind her, and was busy trying to continue to scratch her head and begging. The girl put a sleeve on her head and said, "A young girl, do you know why Yunxianlou was investigated? You son It's Garan's dark pile. The governor has been following Garan for so long, regardless of whether he is a relative, or a civilian. It is a death if he gets in touch with Garan. You are lucky, the governor opened a golden gate to let you go, and the others thought about it. "

Ah Chu said suddenly: "Is there any misunderstanding? Our mother was in Rouge Alley when she was a kid, and she had friendships with some of the grandfathers. As soon as you asked, how could it be a dark blue pile?"

The stallion took a knife and pointed at the corpse on the ground. "Today, your son-in-law gave a pot of wine to Master Xiao Shen, and Master Xiao Shen drank the food as soon as he drank. We came to pick someone up, and she had killed herself on the beam. You still Is it a misunderstanding? "

"Master Xiao Shen, what's wrong with him!" A Chu stared at her eyes.

"What's wrong? Almost dead!" He snorted. "The girl named Xiahou in the girl's courtyard is also a secret stake. This isn't enough to kill herself? Originally, you are the one who can't escape the relationship, and the old man of the master will be kind to you Horse, just cover up your own life and steal the fun, don't blindly moth the moth. Later we will have to ask some questions and ask the girl to cooperate and don't make us embarrassed. "

Ah Chu nodded and retreated to the bottom of the gallery to watch her sister be taken away. A piece of her mind couldn't move as if rusted. She has suffered so much in the past two days that she can no longer think about what to do next and she knows nothing.

Yunxianlou was soon affixed a seal. She was locked in and could not go out. She had three meals a day by Fanzi to deliver. Ayi didn't come to see her. She thought it would be better if she didn't come. Ayi is just a little prince in a ravine. Once caught with the charge of the Galancans, Shen Changgong asked her to kill her. .

Fortunately, Fanzi treated her with courtesy. Apart from not being able to move around at will, there was nothing to hinder. She was much more leisurely than when she was playing and singing on a weekday. She had nothing to do but sat by the window in a daze.

Yunxianlou is a place where three teachings and nine streams are gathered. She has been mixed for many years and is very knowledgeable. In the past few years when Gala was in the limelight, there were often three or two singing in her arms, and the mysterious God took out a white porcelain mask and said that he was Gala. It has everything called Gala Luo, Jin Na Luo, Fei Tian Gong, Earth Top, her name is weird, she can't say it. In fact, most of them are fake. Galan's white porcelain mask has long been rotten on the street, and there are often children running on the road. They pretend to be Galan assassins, in fact, they are trying to lie to the mindless prostitute.

She thought how could her dumb-minded tadpole be a dark blue pile? If he is a dark pile, he can only count as a dumb gong, and if he breaks the paint surface, he won't make a sound. She lay back to Luo Han's bed and sighed, remembering the suffering sister in prison and Xia Houyi, whose life and death were unknown. She was upset and anxious, but she had nothing to do.

Ling Hua's window was knocked twice, and she sat up sharply to open the window, but saw Bai Liyu standing below. She was so horrified that she quickly looked around and confirmed that there was no fan, so she let her climb the window to come in.

Baili kite is full of muddy water, the blue satin horse-faced skirt with makeup and gold is too dirty to see, the ring on the bun is loose, and the tassels hang straight on the face. As Ah Chu helped her clean the mud, she said, "What are you doing? If Fanzi found out, you wouldn't be afraid to be caught in the jail?" Cloth, Airway, "How can there be a prince like you under the sky, climbing a dog hole to drill a girl's boudoir every day."

Bai Liyu looked at her pitifully, "I only drilled through you."

As soon as A Chu looked at her, she softened, sighed, and turned to make tea. Suddenly thinking of Xia Hou, she turned around and said to Bai Lifang slowly, but hesitated, but she still didn't speak. It was so hard to have an older brother, but she was so dead, she would be sad. Ah Chu sighed again and went to get the teapot. Bai Liyu pulled her skirt to follow her, and A Chu turned and she turned, and A Chu stopped and she stopped, like a walking puppy.

"Sit obediently, why do you follow me?" A Chu was helpless.

"I didn't see you, don't you blame me?" Bai Lijie looked up at her with **** and white eyes.

"What are you blaming for?" Ah Chu bounced her head. "You're right if you don't come."

Bai Liyu felt pain, pouting, and said, "The Dongchang came to copy Yunxianlou that day. I had sent someone to **** you on the road, but you were not in the crowd. Someone in my family was sick. You're fine, I didn't come to see you. "

Ah Chu squatted down and looked at her, "Your family is sick, does it matter?"

Bai Lijie lowered her eyes and said, "He was sick originally, and I gave him medicine and he would be fine. I thought it would be fine as long as I kept taking the medicine, but I didn't expect it to return again a few days ago, and I lost a lot Blood. My uncle said he wasn't saved, he was going to die. "

The light from the outside shone through the window hole and shone on the hairpin of Bailifang, and it was plated with a light silver layer. She raised her eyes and looked at Ah Chu, who saw the deep fear and sadness in her eyes. "Sister A Chu, will he die?" Bai Lijie asked softly.

A Chu hugged her and stroked her head. "Don't be afraid, Ayu, it will pass, just like drinking medicine, and it will pass after a while."

"Sister Ah Chu, what does it feel like to die? Is he cold lying in a coffin and lying in the mud alone? Can he hear the voice outside? People pass over his head and speak above him , But he couldn't move, would he be sad? "

A Chu felt sad, A Jie was still young, and had experienced so many loved ones leaving. She hugged her tightly, and said, "A kite who can't, a man will die if he is dead. He will take Huangquan Road, cross Naihe Bridge, and drink Meng Po Tang."

"Will we meet again?"

"Yes," Ah Chu smiled softly. "Surely, maybe he was born into a child and hit you in front of you. You still don't recognize him."

Bai Liyu didn't smile. She turned her head and looked at the remote mountains outside the window. The ups and downs formed a light-colored ink, and gradually disappeared into the clouds. The wind was blowing outside, and the iron horses clinking under the eaves kept ringing, forming a long string of crisps, like a soul-calling tone. After the people of Shuobei died, they had to call for souls. They hung many small bells made of copper in the house. When the soul returned, there would be wind and the bells would ring. The family prepared meals for the returning ghosts and did the final practice for them.

She reached out and touched the wind, as if trying to reach a few wandering lonely ghosts. The wind passed through the fingertips, leaving no trace. Bai Lijie retracted her hand and suddenly said, "Sister, I'm leaving."

Ah Chu held her hand and froze.

"I'm going back to Shuobei, and I won't be here until next year," Bailifang said.

"A Jie ..." A Chu wanted to cry, and her nose was full of sore tears, but she had to hold back. The child could not cry before she was an adult.

"Will you walk with me? Beijing is unstable, Xia Houyun can't protect himself, can't protect you. Come back to Shuobei with me, there is my place. I will take you back to Snow Mountain, I have a lot of gold, you Anything you want. "

After hearing it, she wanted to cry and laugh, "You child, you say silly things all day long." She sucked her nose and said, "I'm the official prostitute of the Department of Education, I can't go."

"Yes," Bai Lijie raised her hand and touched her round bun. "Sister believes me, I can do it. I leave at the end of the month, and I will pick you up when the time comes."

She hesitated. If there was a way, she would be best to get away. She tentatively asked, "Will it be troublesome?"

Baili kite shook her head and said no.

Ah Chu made up her mind and nodded, "Okay, I'll wait for you to pick me up."

Baili kite climbed out of the window hole and returned in the same way. The world was caged in a dim twilight, and the rain was falling again, and the shop owner was rowing the door panels one by one and hanging the latches. There were children on the road, chasing after them, as if they could never stop. Several swallows flew over the trick, black wings cut through the rain and disappeared under the eaves of other people's houses. She passed under Chulou's archway, opposite a mirror-grinding load, and when she passed by, she saw his lips, which meant that Xiahou was not dead.

She did not respond, and went straight to Hou's house. An ethereal snoring came, and she followed the snoring. As many years ago, the teenager in gray clothes was sitting under the eaves of the corridor, blowing the ghost-like tone alone. The sizzling sounds in the wind and rain are like intermittent beads.

Bai Liyu shouted in the mixture of rain and snoring: "Brother."

Persevering and letting go down, his face is still pale, but his eyes are very quiet, reflecting the storms and bleaks of the world, like the ancient mirror on the same side, which is dark and deep.

"Don't call my brother, Barry, I'll kill you." He said.

"But you're dying, you can't kill me." Bai Lijie was sitting in the opposite corridor, and the two talked across the rain curtain. "Are you scared? It's cold when you die, and you can't be warm anymore."

"I'm not afraid." Resentfully reached out to catch the raindrops falling from the tiles. "Everyone will die."

"Why don't Xia Houyu need to die!" Bai Lijie's expression turned haggard. "Brother, he didn't die, he lived well. You see, Xia Hou loves him, Xia Hou loves him, and God loves him, only you He doesn't care. He succeeds, he is at ease, but you have to suffer. Why don't you hate him? "

"You're wrong." Holding the eyes full of light and solitude, couldn't tell whether it was joy or sorrow, "We are brothers, we are connected by blood, and fate is connected."

"But you can't see each other after all." Duan Jiu came over holding the oil-paper umbrella. "Your days are running out, so tired, maybe you will never see your brother again in this life."

He lowered his eyes with disgust, and there was grief on his pale face.

"I said, I'll give you a chance." Duan Jiu took the moment out of the cloak, flatly advanced into the rain, and the raindrops fell on the black scabbard of the moment, splashing a few drops of water, "Kill Shen Ye, I will give you Free, let you go to find your brother. "

"When are you going to kill him?" Bai Liyu asked behind Duan Jiu.

"Yan Luo, the day you leave Beijing, I will practice it with Shen's head." Duan Jiu smiled. "Hang up, it is difficult to kill Shen. You are the strongest assassin of Galan. Only you have Hopefully. Can you agree? "

The rain in front of the steps was rising in a dense, dense pattern like pins. At dusk, they stared silently in the rain.

"Okay." Persistently said, "I promise you."
