The Counterfeit Madam Hou

When Liu Qinghuan woke up, there was a silent voice in his ear.

She lifted her eyelids and entered a farmhouse. The slightly white morning light came in through the door, with some stinging eyes. She looked at the two figures at the door and sat up from the bed. My back hurts so badly just as soon as I try.

“Hiss...”

As soon as Liu Qinghuan painfully exclaimed, the two figures at the door rushed in: “Miss, are you awake? You're wounded. You can't move. ”

Speaking was a farmer woman, about forty years old, dressed in coarse clothes, with a slightly yellow face.

Liu Qing blinked and asked: “Where am I? Why am I here? ”

"This is Cold County," said the woman. "The girl was injured and fainted by the river. When our old beard went to catch fish by the stream, he happened to see her and brought her back. ”

Liu Qinghuan quickly recalled the map near Chang 'an City. She remembers falling into a trap and finally fainting because her wound was too painful, but before she fainted, she seemed to have fallen into the water. If this is Leng County, the river she fell into is Biqing River. Biqing River all the way west, flowing through seven county cities, Liang County has been separated from Chang 'an two counties, she was flushed by the water flow so far?

When the woman saw her not talking, she introduced herself: "This is my old beard, the one who brought you back. ”

Liu Qinghuan raised his head and looked at the two people in front of him. He was moved to say: “Thank you very much. The two gracious little girls who saved their lives did not deserve it. Please accept the prayer of the little girl. ”

Liu Qinghuan struggled to get out of bed. The woman hurriedly stopped her: “Don't move, girl, carefully tear the wound.” The woman sat down beside the bed and asked her with a smile, "I don't know who the girl's name is or where she came from, how could she have fainted by the river? ”

Liu Qinghuan's eyes were red and his face covered with crying silently: “I... woo. ”

When the woman saw her cry so sad, she hurried to comfort her: “Don't cry, girl, tell Aunt Hu slowly. ”

Liu Qinghuan sucked on his nose and said: “Little girl's real name is Ji Shutong, originally from Sichuan, father took our family to Chang 'an to do business, life is quite rich. Last month, my cousin came from Sichuan to marry me. It was a joy to know that my cousin, Snake Scorpion, would not let go of me in order to steal my family property and hurt my father. I was chased all the way by him and forced to throw the river. I thought I was going to die. I didn't expect to meet two nobles and save my little girl's life. ”

After listening, Aunt Hu became angry: “How can there be such a vicious person in the world? Miss Ji is relieved to take good care of the injury here. After the injury, we will accompany you to the Yamen to sue him. ”

Liu Qinghuan rubbed his tears and said sadly: “Aunt Hu doesn't know anything. My cousin has long facilitated the relationship. They colluded in official business. The Yamen won't do anything about him. ”

Aunt Hu consoled her: "Don't worry, justice is in your heart. Let's start by raising your body. ”

Liu Qinghuan nodded and said: “Aunt Hu, how long has the little girl been asleep? ”

"'It's been a day and a night,' said Aunt Hu. ”

One day and one night? I'm afraid Shemu has taken someone to the pavilion. Seems to think of something, Liu Qinghuan slightly frowned. Aunt Hu thought she remembered her cousin again and said busily: “Miss Ji, you need to lie down and rest. Don't think too much. Aunt Hu will make you some soup. ”

“Thank you, Aunt Hu.” Liu Qing glanced at her with gratitude.

“It's okay, it's okay.” Aunt Hu stood up with a smile and dragged their old beau out together. Liu Qinghuan looked behind them and closed his eyes.

In Hou Fu, Li Mo pointed to the map on the table and said to Shemu: "We have been searching along the Biqing River for a day and still have nothing to gain. If Lady is not stuck in the nearby woods, then it is likely that the river has washed us further away.” His long index finger drew a winding curve on the map, and then he said, "After the Biqing River went west and flowed through seven counties, Madame may have been rescued somewhere. ”

Shemu looked at the dense map of numbness and said softly: "Find one at a time. ”

Li Mo licked the dry corner of his mouth and said, “I'll send more men. ”

After discussing it, Shemu went outside again. Li Mo hurriedly chased him up: “I said General, you are not a tycoon. If you don't eat or drink, you won't sleep. If you are tired, no one will help you find your wife. ”

"I slept for an hour last night," said Shemu. "I also used breakfast this morning. ”

Li mumbled: “We didn't spell like this when we were at war. ”

There was no response to seeing Shemu. Lee Mo thought about it and still couldn't help but wonder: “Don't you regret letting Tang Zibo go? It's not the Emperor's daughter-in-law he's losing. Of course he's in no hurry, but you can't give in so easily!” The Emperor usually asks him to quit drinking when he has nothing to do, and he points to this opportunity to put Shemura in his own camp!

Shemu's expression was faint: “What are you sorry for? I can let him go today, and I can get him back tomorrow. ”

Lee was slightly surprised, then sighed and nodded.

Shemu looked for another day with the horses and saw that the sun was going down again and nothing was gained.

Liu Qinghuan lay in bed for a day, his body was fine, but the night was quiet, the wound seemed to hurt a little spicy.

She slowly climbed out of bed, walked to the table and poured a glass of water on herself. After a sip, she choked. Afraid to disturb the Hu couple sleeping next door, Liu Qinghuan covered his mouth with his hands and coughed a few low.

After spreading his hand open, his palm had a few points of blood.

Liu Qinghuan's eyes changed and stood at the table for a long time before slowly moving back to bed.

After a day and a night of rest, Liu Qinghuan felt better than yesterday. Although the scratch still hurts, at least you can get out of bed and walk.

She walked from the house to the yard and sat under a big tree and started to sunbathe.

Uncle Hu went to the ground. Aunt Hu worked alone in the courtyard, and there were two dirt dogs running outside. Liu Qing cheered up the sun and felt that he was sleepy, so he was going to get up and go back to the house for a while. He didn't know he'd just gotten up and walked in front of the door with two fiendish servants.

Aunt Hu hurried over to greet her. The commissioner looked at her a few times and asked: "Has anyone suspicious recently appeared? ”

Aunt Hu shook her head continuously: "No, there's nothing suspicious about me and my old Hu here. ”

He looked around the yard and saw Liu Qinghuan standing under the tree.

“Yo, where's the little lady, she's a real logo.” Aunt Hu hurriedly stopped Liu Qinghuan as he said, “Brother Bao, this is my daughter. She was slightly injured while going up the mountain to collect mushrooms a while ago, not a suspicious person. ”

“Your daughter?” The maid weighed her by surprise. "You had such a beautiful daughter? ”

“Brother Bao, don't make fun of the slave family. At least the slave family was a flower when they were younger. We hu begged me for a long time before I promised to marry him. ”

The two maids heard her say that and laughed hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha: “Okay, if you find anyone suspicious, remember to come to the county maid notice. ”

“Got it. Got it. Take your time!” Aunt Hu finally relieved herself by watching the two go away with her toes.

Liu Qinghuan walked up to her and asked inexplicably: "Aunt Hu, what happened? What are these commissioners looking for? ”

“Let's go inside and talk.” Aunt Hu took her to the bed and sat down before lowering her voice, “the girl may not know. On the day of your coma, Chang 'an ran off a murderer and now the government is looking for him everywhere. ”

“Murderer?” Liu Qing blinked and looked at her sideways.

“Yeah, I hear he's got a partisan ambush outside the city.” Aunt Hu looked scared to death, "the official office checked closely these two days. If anyone asks, you say it's my daughter, Hu Lingshan, in case of unnecessary trouble. ”

Liu Qinghuan nodded his head: “I know, but where's your real daughter? ”

“Alas, the girl ran to Chang 'an to find her cousin again, she is not expected back until next month.” Aunt Hu mentioned her daughter's face, hating iron and steel.

“Oh.” Liu Qing answered unknowingly. Aunt Hu saw this expression and was not comfortable reminding her: “Miss Ji, remember, if anyone asks, it's my daughter Hu Lingshan. ”

Liu Qinghuan looked at her worried face and nodded with a smile: “Don't worry, Aunt Hu, I remember. ”

Aunt Hu was relieved to continue to go out to work.

In the afternoon, Aunt Hu specifically killed a chicken and killed another duck. Liu Qinghuan looked at the chicken with the duck for dinner. She stunned for a moment and asked: “Aunt Hu, how did you eat so well tonight? ”

This is not to blame for Liu Qinghuan's strangeness. Although every meal in Hou Fu is big fish meat, Aunt Hu's family is just an ordinary farmer. She usually doesn't see any oil or water in the food she eats. Today's meal... how do you think it's only eaten this way during the New Year's Eve?

Aunt Hu clamped a chicken leg into her bowl and smiled: “Miss Ji is hurt, you need to eat better to get better quickly. ”

Liu Qing looked at her with emotion: “Thank you Aunt Hu, when I am well, I will surely repay you. ”

Aunt Hu's eyes changed slightly before she picked up the bowl on the table and said vaguely: "Eat, eat. ”

Liu Qinghuan buried his head and focused on eating.

Just after a meal, there was a huge crowd pouring out the door. All but Liu Qinghuan stood up and looked at them in panic.

The person in charge weighed them for a while and finally looked at Liu Qinghuan: “Who is this man? ”

"'She's my daughter,' said Aunt Hu. ”

The leader also seemed not to believe that Aunt Hu could have such a beautiful daughter. The letter would look suspiciously at Liu Qinghuan: “Are you her daughter? What's your name? What's your name? ”

Liu Qinghuan also panicked: “My name is Hu Lingshan. ”

The leader's eyes moved and said to those behind him: "Take it away! ”
