Chapter 507: Slowly Compromise
Zhou Huan nodded, and Qi Yu decisively withdrew his words and stood aside.
"Back to the emperor, the queen mother, Lumei is back."
"Green plum?" Zhou Huan expressed appropriate surprise, it seems that Meng Qi's ability is still first-class, and he has done a good job in such a short time.
Qi Yu on the side was also silently observing Zhou Huan's emotions, but everything seemed to be just right, and he didn't find anything abnormal.
I don't know why, Zhou Huan was a little surprised by his approach, obviously they didn't have a way to be honest with each other a few days ago, but why?
"It's been so long, and this girl doesn't know how to send us a message back." Qi Yu's tone was doting, in the matter of treating Lumei, he did a better job than the previous self.
"Let her in, and explain to me and the queen." It sounds like a reproach, but anyone can hear the pampering in the tone.
As a result, the atmosphere in the room is extraordinarily harmonious.
Yuxi said with a smile: "Lumei is waiting outside, and she also said that she is worried about the mother and the emperor." ”
Although Yuxi doesn't know Lumei's identity, she also knows very well that Lumei's identity is not the same as herself, so there is due distance and respect.
Lumei came in, she hadn't seen her for a long time, she seemed to be a little rounder, and it seemed that her subordinates didn't treat her badly. At this moment, she is wearing a blue shirt, her hair is combed delicately and properly, and even her voice is full of vitality.
"I haven't seen Niangniang and the emperor for a long time, I don't know if Niangniang is okay?"
Lu Mei smiled and looked at Qi Yu and Zhou Huan who were sitting hand in hand in front of her, and the smile on the corner of her lips became more and more intense.
Qi Yu took the lead in taking over the topic, "It's good, but what are you busy with these days, didn't you say to do things?" Why hasn't there been news for so long? ”
Most of these words have a bit of a sense of getting to the bottom of things, but Yuxi, who is guarding outside the door, will not notice it, and Zhou Huan, who is sitting there, just laughs, without any other expression at all, and the last thing left is Lumei herself.
Hearing this, she just smiled stiffly, and then pursed her lips and said, "Niangniang knows that I have never experienced life outside, so I want to take advantage of Sister Yuxi's time in the palace to let Lumei go out for a walk." ”
"It's Lumei who is ignorant, and she didn't contact Niangniang in time, and she really thought that everything was going well in the palace."
Lumei looked at Zhou Huan with self-reproach, her eyes were innocent like a newborn deer, for some reason, Zhou Huan's heart suddenly gave birth to two points of apology.
But fortunately, apart from this incident, Lumei's memory has no deviation at all, and it just so happens that Zhou Huan once mentioned this incident to her, so in Qi Yu's place, even if it is temporarily over.
After Lumei left, Zhou Huan used the excuse that she was tired and needed to rest, and then lay on the bed and closed her eyes to rest, and Qi Yu on the side quietly walked out of the inner room after confirming that she was asleep.
Outside, Chasing Wind was kneeling respectfully in front of Qi Yu, while Qi Yu was leaning on the soft collapse with a cloak.
"How's going on out there?"
Chasing Feng replied, "The prime minister has been closed recently, but half of the courtiers in the court have already come to visit, and on the Northern Xia side, according to secret reports, Tuoba Zhao seems to have left their capital for a while. ”
"You've already done it once before, so you can handle it as last time."
Among the half of the courtiers who were close to Su Li, there were at least sincerity and falsehood, and Qi Yu understood that at present, he still had to be too impulsive, otherwise it would be easy to hurt the roots.
"Yes." Chasing the wind, when his eyes fell on Qi Yu's increasingly thin body, he suddenly thought of another thing, "Your Majesty, when I was tracking down the antidote, the news of the antidote disappeared along with Miss Chu Chu's news. ”
"What are you suspicious of?" Qi Yu asked coldly.
The person in front of him immediately knelt down and admitted his mistake, "My subordinates know their mistakes." ”
Chasing Feng understood Qi Yu's trust in Chu Xingchen, but it was precisely because he knew this trust that he felt that this matter seemed strangely important.
At the beginning, Chu Xingchen and Meng Qi returned to Beijing with the antidote, and Chu Chu appeared on the way, and Chu Xingchen led Chu Chu's people away and asked Meng Qi to ask for help.
The matter is obviously dangerous, but why when Qi Yu personally led the troops to save people, Chu Xingchen's life was safe except for the injuries on his body, but the antidote and Chu Chu had already disappeared.
Chu Xingchen and Chu Chu are brother and sister, and the relationship between the two is close, even if Chu Chu has a flamboyant temperament, it seems that he should not be a person who will hurt Chu Xingchen. Chasing the wind has been exposed to this kind of thing all year round, and naturally has its own sixth sense.
In fact, it was Qi Yu who brought people over at the beginning, so Qi Yu understood all kinds of reasons, and he could even see that Chu Chu's departure should be caused by Chu Xingchen. Chu Xingchen wanted to keep his sister, he understood it very well, as for the antidote, he couldn't see the guilt in Chu Xingchen's eyes.
His life was saved by Chu Xingchen, and Qi Yu believed in his brother.
"This is the end of this matter, if the antidote can't be found, I don't want it."
"Your Majesty-" Chasing Feng knew that Qi Yu was not lying, although he was on a mission during this time, he was also clear about what was happening in the palace.
In the past, didn't the queen always value the emperor's health the most? Now, what is this for, let the emperor come nonsense. Book 6 bar
What happened during this time was so bizarre that Chasing Wind always felt as if he had missed something?
"Your Majesty, over there in Lumei, my subordinates have found out some news, please give the master another ......"
"Green Plum has returned." Qi Yu sighed, "Is it that there are too many things during this time, then you can concentrate on Su Li's affairs during this time." ”
Qi Yu spoke euphemistically, but Chasing Feng knew that Qi Yu was questioning his ability. But how could Lumei come back? The news he got wasn't that Lumei was imprisoned in a place in the capital?
But Chasing Feng also understands Qi Yu's temperament, he has crossed the line too much today, and if he continues to be presumptuous, I am afraid that he will really anger his master.
So, he chose to shut up obediently and turned away.
The chasing wind here is no longer offended, lying on the bed not far away, Zhou Huan, who is behind the screen, also slowly breathed a sigh of relief, she knows that she has more time.
It seems that his closeness to Qi Yu in the past two days is still of some significance.
However, Chasing Wind still has to be more careful, he is a smart person, and it seems that Lumei's side and Chu Xingchen's side have left points that make him suspicious. To a certain extent, chasing the wind is similar to Qi Yu's suspicion, but this time the object of suspicion is himself and Chu Xingchen, so Qi Yu's attitude can be ignored for the time being.
Therefore, solving the matter of chasing the wind has become the most important thing right now.
But Zhou Huan didn't have the slightest resentment about chasing the wind, chasing the wind was Qi Yu's subordinate, and it was a good thing for him to spare no effort to consider his master.
Thinking about it, Zhou Huan finally fell asleep in a groggy state, and when Qi Yu outside came back after he was busy, Zhou Huan seemed to have fallen into a long and depressing dream.
In the dream, it was an endless blood-red.
Zhou Huan was surprised at what she saw, but when she was surprised, she found that her fingernails were bright red, and the dress on her body was also bright red, and every step she took was bright red.
Xu is picture is too impactful, Zhou Huan's heart actually carried two points of fear, she walked aimlessly, I don't know how long I walked, and finally saw a familiar figure.
That person turned around, but what brought her was not a long drought and a rainy day, but fear that went deep into the bone marrow.
The familiar back is Qi Yu, and when he turns around, it is actually the same, but that person is the kind that bleeds from the seven orifices, and no matter how Zhou Huan wipes it, he will stop forever.
"Ah Yu—"
"Don't scare me, okay, I'm sorry to leave you, don't be like this, okay?"
……
Zhou Huan in the dream panicked, because Qi Yu, who was covered in blood, spoke at her, resentfully, "Qingqing, do you think it's okay to leave me?" ”
"But I can't help it, Ah Yu, I can't live ......"
"Qingqing, wake up, you're having a nightmare." Qi Yu was worried about Zhou Huan, and shook Zhou Huan slightly, liberating her from the dream.
Then, Zhou Huan opened her eyes suddenly, and when she faced Qi Yu, she was finally not bitter, and her trembling was not so bad.
She threw herself into Qi Yu's arms all of a sudden, and Qi Yu patted Zhou Huan's back distressedly, "It's okay, it's okay, aren't I here?" ”
"I know."
Zhou Huan crawled in Qi Yu's arms, and his voice sounded a little muffled. However, with Qi Yu's comfort, this nightmare doesn't seem to be so terrifying.
"Everything in the dream is fake." Qi Yu's voice had a unique sense of tenderness.
Zhou Huan nodded, she knew that the dream was not fake, it was the inevitable outcome after her choice, and when the time came, Qi Yu would blame her for betraying her, and even hate her.
Maybe I'll hate it for the rest of my life.
"Your Majesty?" Zhou Huan put his arms around Qi Yu's neck, "Let Yuxi go out of the palace, right?" ”
"Huh?"
"Originally, Yuxi was married to Chasing the Wind, but because the concubine was involved in Yuxi again, there were too many things that happened during this time, and the concubine thought that she couldn't always occupy Yuxi, right?"
Qi Yu hugged Zhou Huan tightly, "But Yuxi has been waiting for you for a long time, and I can rest assured." ”
Zhou Huan didn't want to, she knew that she had to let Qi Yu agree, "Ah Yu, I just thought, I already have you, but Yuxi and Chasing Feng, the two lovers, can't be delayed because of us." ”
Zhou Huan said, but Qi Yu smiled as he wished, not for anything else, just for that lover.
"Well, I'll be with you during this time anyway." Qi Yu hooked his lips and smiled, with a satisfied face. Zhou Huan in her arms also nodded meekly, so that the one thing that bothered her was solved.
