Chapter 5 Chapter 5 He just cautiously reached out to touch her.
Three days later, Jiang Daiyi woke up. She slowly opened her eyes and found herself lying on Yun Qin's lap.
The carriage they were riding in was moving slowly on the road.
Sparse sunlight filtered through the carriage windows, scattering patches of light inside.
Jiang Daiyi propped herself up and sat up, and saw that the hem of Yunqin's robe had been wrinkled by her.
"Awake?" Yun Qin's voice rang out in the carriage.
Jiang Daiyi held her half-clear head and found that the poison that Qian Xiang had given her seemed to have been cured.
She looked up and saw Yun Qin sitting upright on the cushion, his graceful figure like the pine wind and water moon, his beautiful appearance bright and clear, his jade-like eyes looking at her.
His face seemed a little pale.
Jiang Daiyi's watery eyes revealed worry, and she asked softly, "Brother, why do you look so bad?"
Yun Qin didn't care: "It's okay, we'll be at the Yun family in half an incense stick of time. After you go back, you can rest well for a few days."
After saying that, he was silent for a while.
Jiang Daiyi was approached by Qian Xiang three days ago. The first reason was to warn her not to forget her identity, and the second was to let her reveal the news of Qiliangshan to the Yun family. The third reason was to use her to poison Yun Qin.
I thought Yun Qin would ask her why the secret guard who was left to protect her that day was bewitched and why she was poisoned, but he didn't ask anything.
Jiang Daiyi asked tentatively: "Brother, the poison in my body..."
"It's solved." Yun Qin said lightly.
Jiang Daiyi raised her eyebrows slightly. It seemed that it was indeed Yun Qin who helped her detoxify. It could be seen from his pale face.
She was not surprised. Qian Xiang did not intend to poison her in the first place, but wanted to transfer the poison to Yun Qin through her.
Qian Xiang bet that Yun Qin would definitely save her, so he gave her an extremely powerful poison.
Anyone who wants to save her will inevitably be attacked by the toxins in her body and indirectly poisoned.
What a vicious method.
But Jiang Daiyi didn't expect that even though Yun Qin was suspicious of her identity, he would still choose to save her without hesitation when she was in danger.
She felt a little guilty.
It is hard to imagine whether Yunqin would regret all the efforts he has made in her over the years if he finds out in the future that she is not his sister.
"Unhappy?"
Yun Qin had amazing insight and he had noticed the sudden change in Jiang Daiyi's mood.
Jiang Daiyi lowered her eyes, "Brother, I'm sorry..."
Yun Qin just thought she was blaming herself for being poisoned because of her, "It's not your fault."
"Sir, we have arrived at the Yun Mansion."
The carriage stopped, and the secret guard reported outside. "Hmm." Yun Qin seemed to have no strength left, and his voice was unusually soft.
After receiving Yunqin's reply, the people outside lifted the curtain and invited Jiang Daiyi and Yunqin to go down.
Jiang Daiyi came down first. Lu Wan and Lu Luo, who had been serving her personally, were already waiting in front of the mansion gate. When they saw her coming down, they hurried over to help her into the mansion.
When I returned home, it was almost dusk.
The servants in the mansion did not dare to be negligent and held a welcoming banquet for Yunqin. The elders in the mansion also happened to have something to discuss with him.
Jiang Daiyi's body had not recovered yet and the remaining poison had not been cleared, so she did not join in the fun and returned to the house early.
After she finished her bath and returned to her bedroom to rest, Luluo Luwan closed the curtain and left.
The night-shining pearl outside the bed curtain emits a soft light.
Jiang Daiyi lay on the bed, recalling the new task given to her by Qian Xiang.
"There is a tomb of the emperor of the previous dynasty on Qiliang Mountain. There is a large amount of gold and silver treasures in the tomb. You should tell Yunqin this information."
Tianque didn't keep such a treasure to himself. He probably wanted to use Yunqin's power as a stepping stone to find the treasure, and then try to get rid of him when Yunqin's strength was greatly reduced due to poisoning.
She had to find a win-win solution, which was to let Yunqin know the news in a reasonable way while reminding Yunqin of the danger.
Yunqin must not fall into danger until her goal is achieved.
Jiang Daiyi tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, so she simply got up, got out of bed, and sat by the window.
She half-opened the window. The moonlight outside was dim, and the cry of carrier pigeons caught her attention.
The direction the carrier pigeon flew towards was the yard where Yunqin lived.
Jiang Daiyi turned her eyes thoughtfully. Perhaps, she could replace the message that the carrier pigeon was originally going to convey with the news from Qiliangshan. This would be more reasonable.
The message delivered by the carrier pigeon was that it had been replaced in the mansion. Who would have thought it was her?
only……
Dark shadows were floating outside the window. There were probably at least ten secret guards watching her yard inside and outside.
Jiang Daiyi observed for a moment, then stood up and closed the window.
It is not advisable to take action, you should choose another auspicious day.
Lanterns were lit in the mansion, and a carrier pigeon flew across Jiang Daiyi's yard, aiming clearly at the window of Yunqin's bedroom.
The slender knuckles held up the carrier pigeon. There was a yellowed paper roll in the small wooden tube at the bend of the pigeon's legs. After it was pulled out, the pigeon fluttered away in two steps.
【Young Master Tianque, the actions of thousands of ministers.】
Looking at the message on the piece of paper, Yun Qin's eyes dimmed slightly. He raised his hand and placed the paper on the candle. The flame shone, and the thin paper was gradually swallowed by the flame and turned into a black ash.
A sweet and fishy taste rose in his throat. Yun Qin wanted to mobilize his internal energy to suppress the poison, but his dantian was empty. He simply gave up regulating his breathing and turned to wash the paper ashes on his hands in the copper basin. Yun Qin's face, as warm as jade, was reflected in the rippling water.
It was this person who told him a few days ago that his sister's identity was in doubt.
Fourteen years ago, the royal family declined and various heroes fought for supremacy. It was the most chaotic year in the world. The various countries used royal power and wealth to recruit talented people from all over the world, and thus three powerful families were born: the Yanling Yun family, the Pingqian Qiang family, and the Qiliangjiang family.
Although the Yun family was powerful at that time, it was far inferior to the other two families. How could two tigers fight for food and allow others to share the spoils?
The Yun family was suppressed and attacked from all sides, and was almost wiped out.
In order to preserve their bloodline, the parents risked their lives to entrust Yun Qin and his infant sister Yun Ai to their confidant and send them out of Yanling City to avoid the limelight temporarily.
The servant took the brother and sister to hide in a small village under an assumed name and lived there. The money they brought with them in a hurry was soon used up, and for a while they couldn't even eat the hard-to-swallow bran.
In order to keep them alive, the servants had to take risks and go out to find work to make a living.
But in the chaotic times, even life is hard to protect, let alone other things. Once, Yun Qin was robbed by robbers and almost lost his life.
But my sister... was taken away and I couldn't find her anywhere.
It was not until seven years ago that several elders of the Yun family who had saved their lives found Yun Qin and restored the power of the Yun family with ruthless means.
Not long after, the elders told him that his sister Yun'er... had also been found.
It was a cold February day with a light rain and a gentle breeze. Little Yunyi was like a little clay figure, huddled up in a ball and shivering in the corner of his bedroom.
The gray coarse cloth clothes she was wearing were so dirty that it was hard to tell that there was a person wrapped inside. The old wounds on her body were shocking. Her unfocused eyes were dead, as if she would die in the next moment.
Until the servant's cautious voice reminded him: "Master Yunqin, after repeated confirmation by the elders of your clan, she... is indeed your sister, Miss Yunyi..."
"When the girl was found, she was deaf, blind, and covered in wounds. She was leaning against a dead tree, gnawing on the dry bark to fill her stomach... She must have suffered a lot..."
"The girl was terrified. She resisted anyone approaching, scratching and biting. Many of the elders and servants were injured. We had no other options, so we sent her to you. Do you have any way to comfort her?"
Yun Qin still remembered that when Yun Yi was still in swaddling clothes, whenever he held her in his arms, she would smile at him with her bright eyes, her eyes shining as if she wanted to get close to him. But now, her eyes were filled with grayness and despair.
A piercing pain welled up from the depths of his heart, difficult to control. Yun Qin opened his lips, but no sound came out. After a long while, he gently dismissed the servants: "You can go down first."
The servant placed the basin and handkerchief he was carrying on the stone table in the courtyard. "Sir, these are for washing the young lady's face. The doctor said she is very weak and afraid she might catch a cold if she bathes. Wait for her to get used to the local climate for two days before sending a maid to help her bathe."
Yun Qin nodded.
The servant bowed and left, shaking his head helplessly before leaving.
Although he knew that the young master and the trembling girl in front of him were siblings, he was still afraid that Yun Qin would not be able to bear the girl's extreme behavior and would not be able to help but beat her.
I don't know what this Miss Yun'er has been through outside. As soon as she feels someone touching her, she starts crying and making a fuss, using violent force and words as if she wants to kill the other person. She is really hard to coax.
Young Master Yunqin had also been away for several years, and when he returned, he didn't see Miss Yunyi in such a frightening manner. The two servants who left with him whispered, "It seems Young Master Yunqin will be in trouble for the next few days."
"Oh, keep your voice down... But this girl looks crazy, and Master Yunqin has only just been found, so his temperament is still unclear. He hasn't seen his sister in so many years, and who knows how much of their family affection is left. Can you coax her with patience?"
"I think it's difficult... who knows, but she's my biological sister after all, I can't just throw her out of the house and ignore her, right?"
After the servant left, Yun Qin squatted down and tentatively stretched out his hand towards her. He knew that Yun Ai could not hear or see at the moment, so he did not speak, but just stretched out his hand cautiously to touch her.
