Chapter 304: Visiting Ling is no longer what it used to be
"Who is it...... Who the hell ......?"
Qi Rong was silent for a moment and spoke lowly,
“…… It is the Shangguan Mansion, the queen's person. ”
She's dead.
All the despair of Bao Qi turned into these five words and floated into his mind.
Hua Xi's death seems to have become a certainty, but Bao Qi always feels that the other party doesn't seem to be dead, and is still somewhere in this world, living quietly, but I don't know if he is happy.
In order to reassure Bao Qi, the search for Hua Xi has not stopped since then, and almost every cycle, he will report to the queen regularly.
It's just that in all this news, Qi Rong still hasn't told Bao Qi, there is an investigation of Hua Xi, and she found many rumors that she had colluded with Shangguan and walked around that was unfavorable to Bao Qi, including some traces of her connection with Shangguan after her meritorious service.
This is also why, the people they sent out quickly found traces of Shangguan's people before and after the fire.
Maybe Bao Qi will know sooner or later, maybe he will never know, at least Qi Rong, he doesn't want her to know now, sometimes the disappointment of being betrayed by someone he trusts is more uncomfortable than guilt, he understands that feeling.
Speaking of which, since the assassination of Ling Mansion before, a lot of things have happened later, including Bao Qi's difficult birth, Yun'er being included in Ling Mansion, and so on, so that now Bao Qi has been crowned queen, Ling Sijing has not returned to the palace to accompany Qi Heng'er to study and study.
There are many reasons, the most important thing is probably Yan Ruowen's side, I really can't rest assured, the child is frightened, and it is not good to disturb the prince.
After Bao Qi was sealed this time, Zhong Mo came to Beijing, after all, Manro and Mrs. Ling still had that relationship, in view of Mrs. Ling's health getting worse and worse, Zhong Mo still went to visit Ling's Mansion with Bao Qi in person, and by the way, he was finally able to take a look at Yun'er.
I still didn't plan to take Qi Heng'er with me, but Qi Heng'er pestered Bao Qi for a long time, and finally Bao Qi, who was still making trouble, agreed to take him there, this kid would be looking for someone, if he was looking for Qi Rong, it was estimated that it would be twice as long, and the other party would not agree.
I don't know if Bao Qi is too attentive, or if he hasn't met Yan Ruowen for too long, Bao Qi always feels that although Yan Ruowen is still respectful to him, he is not bad, but the affection and cordiality of the two people can't be recovered.
On the contrary, it was Yun'er, who had been in the Ling Mansion for so many days, and when she saw Bao Qi, her eyes were red, and her tears were like broken threads, and she almost pounced on Bao Qi to check it thoroughly, and she ran two small steps before she remembered something, and saluted Bao Qi with tears before she gave up.
Bao Qi looked at her with a sad look, thinking that she was worried and worried about her own affairs, holding her hand and asking questions constantly, she couldn't help but blame her for being missing for a month at the time, but she was scared.
"Okay, okay, don't cry, look at you, you're still half the master of the Ling Mansion, why don't you even care about your image, your eyes are red, I'm not okay now, don't worry, well, don't cry, I'm not coming to see you......"
"Niangniang is fine, it is Niangniang's blessing and great fate, God bless, but Niangniang is like this...... If you don't take your safety to heart like this, slave maid, slave maid is really heartbroken, fortunately, the mother came back safely, but the slave maid ...... Slave ......"
Yun'er choked and sobbed, she was the most sharp and sharp in the past, but now she can't even say a complete sentence, that worry can be expected, it really penetrates into her bones.
Bao Qi touched her head, and his tone was gentle,
"How about it, over here, life is still habitual, Young Master Ling's side...... But we can get along......"
Bao Qi carefully diverted the topic and asked Yun'er about some of her daily life.
When Yun'er heard Bao Qi's words, her originally mournful gaze became a little evasive, frowning with a sense of helplessness and sorrow, but she only said comforting words,
"The queen doesn't have to worry about slaves, I'm very used to it here, and Mrs. Ling takes good care of me...... Don't worry, Yun'er is very good......"
The two of them haven't seen each other for too long, and they can't talk about it and worry about it, just looking at Yun'er's appearance, they know that this life is by no means as good as she imagined, but everything is her own choice, no matter how Bao Qi asks, she won't complain much.
Seeing that Yun'er was very attentive and cared for Ling Sijing, especially Qi Heng'er, Bao Qi couldn't help but say,
"Seeing that you like children so much, you should also find time to have one, and you should be a companion. ”
For the ancients, having a child is a lifelong dependence and the sustenance of life, and Bao Qi understands this very well.
Speaking of giving birth to a child, Yun'er's face flashed with loneliness that could not be concealed, moved her lips, and said softly,
"I'd like to, but ...... Don't talk about this, the queen mother came to Lingfu this time, Yun'er caused a lot of sadness, but the mother has to take care of her body, little prince, I am still waiting for you to take care of it. ”
Bao Qi knew that she always thought about herself, and she was very sorry in her heart, and the two of them said a lot of considerate words, so she gave up, but this time her surname was Cheng, and she was much less close to Yan Ruowen, and she seemed to be a lot stranger for a while, and she didn't say anything deeper.
Bao Qi told Mrs. Ling about Zhong Mo's visit again, and Mrs. Ling was also a lot relieved, the position of the two of them in Mrs. Ling's heart was not lower than Ling Ji in the slightest.
Until leaving, Bao Qi didn't see Ling Ji, as if he was avoiding something, everyone had an indescribable tacit understanding, and after asking a little, he didn't mention it much.
It's just that Qi Heng'er, who has just been here for a long time, has not stayed with Ling Sijing for long, and he is going to be separated again, thinking that he has grown up a lot in the past few months, not as coquettish and crying as before, and saying those nonsense words begging the queen mother to bring Ling Sijing back to the palace, but the attachment and reluctance of the child will not be concealed after all.
"Queen Mother, Brother Ling, can you still enter the palace to study with me?"
Qi Heng'er asked the thoughts of the two of them, and looked forward to it calmly, but between the adults, they looked at each other a few times, and their faces changed the most, I am afraid it was Yan Ruowen, Bao Qi quietly picked up the child in front of him, touched his head and said,
"You see that Sijing's body is still recuperating, if you want to enter the palace, you have to wait for him to raise better, and when you all grow up, you can naturally study together, these things have to wait for your father to decide, not to mention, Uncle Ling and them are reluctant to have their own children, right?"
Qi Heng'er crossed Bao Qi to look at Ling Sijing standing in the corner, his little eyes were going to be red, the reluctance of the two little teenagers actually touched Bao Qi's heart, and he looked back at Ling Sijing, the white and tender child was much thinner than before, but he was also more delicate, I don't know if it was a genetic relationship, but the ten-year-old person had a faint and indifferent temperament.
can make the nostalgia and innocence in the eyes no less than Qi Heng'er.
