Chapter 290: Giving Birth to Retreat
As soon as he said goodbye on this day, Xiao Jiu also persuaded Chu Yinghan to let Zeng Xiaosheng go and see Li You. After Chu Yinghan agreed, Xiao Jiu asked Wood Bird to deliver the letter. Early the next morning, Zeng Xiaosheng really heard her Qiao Zhuang become a palace maid and waited for her in the backyard.
Zeng Xiaosheng was born white, and his figure was thin, and the palace maid's clothes were even more beautiful than ordinary women. Seeing Xiao Jiu staring at him and laughing, he couldn't help but be annoyed, and stepped forward and bowed: "Minister.... The slave and maid see the virtuous queen, and I don't know what the virtuous queen is looking for the slave and maid? ”
Xiao Jiu couldn't help laughing, covered his mouth and smiled: "What else can I do, take you to see Li You!" Zeng Xiaosheng was taken aback, and unconsciously stepped forward and asked, "Really?"
After asking, he felt that it was inappropriate, and asked very cautiously: "I don't know why Empress Xian is in prison at this time, if it is what Empress Xian pointed out..... If you don't see it, it will only increase your sadness! ”
Xiao Jiu saw that the man was really righteous and reasonable, so he no longer laughed at him, and only said in a deep voice: "The reason for this, I have to tell you that today's meeting is also the intention of the emperor, but the two battles are inevitable after all, I am afraid that you will be whipped by someone, so I let the palace secretly take you in." ”
Zeng Xiaosheng pondered slightly, hugged his fists again and said, "Thank you, Empress Xian." "Yushi has always only recognized tokens, even if the virtuous queen came in person, it was a check before letting him in. Li You is considered a repeat offender, unlike others, and is locked up far away.
When the two approached him, he didn't react, like dementia, his hair was messy, as if he had been caught a lot alive, his eyes were black, as if he had been abused, looking at Xiao Jiu suspiciously, the cell head hurriedly explained: "After returning to Yuxian, this person has not eaten or drunk since he was imprisoned, and he has not slept or sleep, just staring at the ground with his eyes, it turns out that we all thought he was dead, and hit him with a rice bowl, and he reacted." ”
Xiao Jiu saw that Zeng Xiaosheng couldn't restrain himself from grabbing Lao Men, his hands were still trembling, and he hurriedly said to the cell boss: "This palace knows, you go out first, you don't need you here for the time being!" The cell boss nodded and said respectfully: "The little one retires, this person is a repeat offender, be careful with the virtuous queen!" ”
As soon as the cell boss left, Zeng Xiaosheng couldn't help but shout: "Li You, Li You!" Li You heard the familiar voice, looked back blankly, but there was no response, Zeng Xiaosheng was in a hurry, hurriedly tied up his hair, and wiped the white powder on his face. It's me, Zeng Xiaosheng! ”
Li You's face was stunned, and then he cried like a child, and wanted to go to the edge of the prison door, but he was weak, so he fell to the ground, crawled a few steps on his knees, and grabbed Zeng Xiaosheng's hand tightly and said: "Brother Zeng, Brother Zeng, I don't want to!" ”
Zeng Xiaosheng's face was full of doubts, but he still comforted him first: "It's nothing, it's okay, you drink some water first, I'll give you some internal strength, and we'll talk about it in the future." It was a simple sentence, but it annoyed Li You, he stood up like crazy, and shouted frantically: "I don't want it, I don't want any internal force, I am me, what is the use of your internal force?" ”
Seeing that he was crazy, for fear of attracting the cell head, and also worried that he was unwell, Zeng Xiaosheng immediately pulled him to his side with a palm, Li Youben was already physically exhausted, his eyes were over, and he fainted. Zeng Xiaosheng didn't let go, and put his palm on his back, silently inputting internal force. After he was breathing steadily, he let him go to work, and said firmly: "Empress Xian, he is like this now, I am afraid he can't say, what happened, you tell me first!" ”
Xiao Jiu was just about to open his mouth, but he listened to the cell boss outside the door, his eyes changed, and he said softly: "Go out first!" Zeng Xiaosheng also knew that he couldn't stay longer, so he nodded. Not far from the death row, he couldn't help but ask: "Empress Xian, what is the reason why you can tell the minister at this moment?" ”
Xiao Jiu could see clearly the anxiety in his eyes, sighed and said: "This matter is indeed chaotic, before that, this palace passed a word for Emperor Ying, even if you follow your heart, he will not blame you, he and General Zihuai have grown up since childhood, and they know the pain of choice!" ”
This made him even more confused, although he was anxious, he waited patiently. Xiao Jiu didn't delay any longer, and told Li You's affairs all about it, Zeng Xiaosheng almost lost his rational thinking, and stayed in place for a long time. Xiao Jiu saw that he was unstable at the moment, and comforted him again: "No matter what, this matter is already like this, you go back and think about it!" ”
Zeng Xiaosheng came back to his senses, and hurriedly clenched his fists and explained: "Empress Xian, the minister believes that Lord Li has no such intention, and I hope that Empress Xian will persuade Emperor Ying again." Xiao Jiu had already left, but listening to him at the moment, he had no choice but to turn around and say: "It's not Li You who is going to make trouble now, but the Northern Emperor will definitely lead him into the water, and this battle is inevitable!" Zeng Xiaosheng was stunned in place, indeed in a dilemma.
Xiao Jiu returned to the main hall, thinking that Li Youfang had just realized, and sighed at the impermanence of the world, Chu Yinghan felt that she had something on her mind, and she was also helpless, so she only put down her pen and said, "What's wrong?" Xiao Jiu sighed lightly, raised his eyes and saw him and said: "I only knew that you were helpless, but now I see Li Youcai and feel that he is the most pitiful, and he seems to be unwilling to admit this fact, he has not eaten for three days, and he is also a little excited." ”
"Oh? How is Zeng Xiaosheng? ”
"He and Li You haven't spoken, I told him what happened, he seems to be in a dilemma, these people are chivalrous."
Chu Yinghan sighed slightly, his eyes only looked at the pen and ink in his hand, and he couldn't help sighing: "Li You can be a good emperor, although he is impulsive now, he is also dedicated to the country, not driven by power, and then honed and honed, but can succeed!" ”
Originally, he just sighed casually, but as soon as he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Xiao Jiu, Xiao Jiu had heard him say weirdly, and then looked at this expectant gaze, and said in disbelief: "You.... What do you mean? ”
Chu Yinghan shook her hands excitedly, and said quickly in a rare excited tone: "Originally, it was only for the country and the people, but now that we have good candidates, why don't we take the opportunity to get out of here?" He had always been calm and cautious, and he had never seen such an impulsive and willful appearance.
Xiao Jiu couldn't refuse, this idea has been hidden in her mind from beginning to end, although she didn't mention it, she was looking forward to it every day and night, and now it seems that her dream has come true, and she still can't believe it and asks: "What you said is true?" ”
"Naturally, take it seriously! Xiao Jiu, as long as you are willing to live with me again, the days of Xiangmura Yefu! ”
"Of course I do!" Xiao Jiu was so excited that he couldn't help but say in a nasal voice. But immediately thought of Zhiyuan, Zhiyuan is in the prince's mansion, if it is a fake death immediately, the three of them together, it is very impossible, in case something goes wrong in the middle, people can't wake up at all, if they don't fake their death, the two still have an excuse to leave the palace and slowly escape, but Zhiyuan is the only prince, there are eyes staring everywhere, if you want to live in seclusion and not cause chaos, it is not easy to do! ”
