Chapter Eighty-Seven: Farewell
"Auntie, there is news from Qiwu Palace, saying that the chief manager went in the afternoon and stayed in it for more than two hours, and he hasn't come out yet?"
"More than two hours? It's dark outside, and he hasn't left yet? ”
"No, it's not a slave who will chew the root of your tongue with you, but Her Royal Highness the princess doesn't pay attention to it, even if the position is high, it shouldn't be mixed with the eunuchs of the Qiande Palace, and it will be embarrassing."
"Shut up! The princess and the chief steward are also what you can say about this dog? ”
"Uh, the minion lost his word, so ...... next"
"This is against the palace rules, but it is naturally difficult for us to be slaves, and we have to ask the Queen Mother to decide."
"Hey, hey, aunt is wise, then the slave is here to wish my aunt a long-cherished wish as soon as possible and be able to marry our chief manager."
"Hehe......"
After eating some light snacks, and venting his grievances and worries, this time Zi Nuanjin felt much better, and even his complexion was not as sick as before.
But even so, her heart worried about Lou Xuanning did not weaken for half a minute: "Is there any news from my brother?" How is he recovering from his injuries? The weather there is harsh, will it aggravate his injuries? ”
A series of questions made Cen Run not know where to start answering: "The slave knows that you are worried about His Royal Highness the Prince, and the slave is the same as you, but this news takes time to come and go, and since the last eight hundred miles of urgency, there has been no report." But don't worry, the military doctor has reported the prince's injury to the emperor, and the emperor has also passed on Mrs. Rong, who wrote the method of treatment and the required medicine stone according to the description of the military doctor, and I believe that the military doctor will heal according to Mrs. Rong's method, and His Royal Highness the Prince will be healed in the near future. ”
Hearing Mrs. Rong's name, Nuan Jin's heart relaxed, but deeper doubts still bothered her: "It's just ...... It's just a mere 200 elite soldiers to attack the camp where our 200,000 army is located? also directly injured Xuan Ning, who was in the royal tent...... "Nuan Jin slowly got up and walked off the bed, she was wearing a goose yellow brocade dress, which made her complexion fairer, just because she had lost a lot of weight, and her skirt was a little loose.
She paced around the room, pondering the doubts in her heart, "This is the ...... Don't you think it's weird? I've never been on the battlefield, but it's almost impossible to figure it out from common sense. Not to mention that there will be soldiers patrolling all night in the camp, just want to cross the 200,000 army, go straight to the king's tent, and injure the prince, it's as difficult as climbing to the sky, isn't it? ”
Cen Run was still sitting on the edge of the couch, listening to Nuan Jin talking to himself, but did not answer.
"Or is this sneak attack supposed to be a combination of inside and outside? ...... in the barracks Is there an inner ghost? Nuan Jin's expression changed greatly, and he felt that it must be like this, otherwise his brother would not be careless and injured, "What about my father?" What did he say? Did he have any suspicions? If even I thought of it, then my father must have thought of it too, right? ”
She was actually a little suspicious of Lin Xiao, and always felt that this person was a little in Cao Ying's heart, but the relationship between him and Cen Run had not been clarified, and she didn't want to say it at this time.
Cen Run smiled faintly, there was not too much emotion in his eyes, he was too used to hiding his true thoughts in his heart, as long as he wanted to, no one could guess him: "You have said that you have never experienced a war, many things will not be as simple as you think, the secret report said that the prince was injured by a stray arrow, which shows that the two hundred elite soldiers did not come to assassinate the prince."
"Perhaps, they just wanted to find out about the military situation, and accidentally exposed their whereabouts, and in a hurry, they would release arrows to protect themselves, just to retreat with their whole body. But no matter what the situation is, the emperor or the prince, they will have their own decisions and considerations, so don't worry too much, for now you have to take good care of yourself, don't get sick, lest the emperor have to be distracted by the princess. ”
Nuan Jin sighed and nodded, knowing that she was just rushing to the doctor, and Xuan Ning was injured, which disrupted all her minds.
The room suddenly fell silent, except for the occasional crackling of the charcoal fire, which warned of the presence of someone.
"Are you ......" Nuan Jin hesitated, finally breaking the silence, "Are you okay lately?" ”
"The slave is very good, there are many things in the previous dynasty, and he can't be idle for a moment, so he can't come to visit the princess from time to time."
"Well, I understand, the war is tense, and my father must be uncomfortable, has he involved you?"
"The master scolds must be because the slave is not good enough."
Nuan Jin nodded, the minions in the palace are like this regardless of their rank, when the master is in a good mood, he is rewarded, and when he is in a bad mood, it changes into a beating and scolding for no reason.
"Yes...... Except for this, the minion is not good for anything else......"
Nuan Jin was startled, and subconsciously looked back at him, he was still sitting on the edge of the couch, smiling and looking at himself, a pair of phoenix eyes full of tenderness, with some caution, some lingering compassion and some helpless loneliness.
He is different from Mrs. Rong, Mrs. Rong doesn't eat fireworks, that is, he is completely unstained with red dust, if he has to say that he has some ties with the world, it is estimated that he is the person hidden in his heart. And Cen Run is different, he is sophisticated and reasonable, no one knows these things better than him, he is the head of this regard, no one in the imperial city dares to call him uncle, so when he wants to figure out a person's heart, it is simply effortless.
Not to mention the always simple Nuan Jin, whenever he looked at her like this, the princess couldn't take a step again.
There was a charcoal stove between them, and the fire was blazing, and the heat emitted distorted the figures of the two people slightly.
"Minions...... I miss the princess so much. ”
Nuan Jin frowned, her heart went up and down, she really hated him sometimes, and she really couldn't figure out what kind of emotions he had for her.
If he doesn't love her, but he always gets his care when he is in danger, and this kind of dedication has long exceeded the loyalty of the slave to the master. But if he loved her, he never took a step forward.
And when he was about to give up, he just gave you such a vague hint, which disturbed him and was really in a dilemma.
Cen Run got up and walked over, he didn't know if this was the last time he could be so intimate with her, so even if he risked it, he wanted to follow the true feeling in his heart, even if it was only once.
Nuan Jin didn't understand why Cen Run was like this, he had always been aware of proportion, and suddenly said this, which caught her a little off guard: "Cen Run...... I really don't understand your ......."
Cen Run smiled, stood three steps away from her and stopped stepping forward: "Princess, the slave is really not a good person, I often resent myself, I can let go more decisively, and I also know the distance between the slave and the princess...... But whenever you go away, the minions ...... I couldn't control myself from catching up, making the princess so sad, the slave ......"
When he said this, he could only make Nuan Jin's heart hurt even more for no reason, and the relationship between her and him had long been a mess, and it was completely impossible to take into account what reason and what kind of humanity was.
thought that things would always develop in the direction of their wishes, but in the end, they had no way out, both to love each other and hurt each other.
"So......" Nuan Jin smiled, as if he had finally cleared up at this moment, "Are you here to say goodbye?" ”
It was just a short moment, as fast as a lightning speed, and in Cen Run's eyes, a touch of shock briefly flashed, and then there was a long silence.
"Haven't we said goodbye many times?"
She seemed to be mentally prepared, and then waited for Cen Run's answer, hoping that this relationship that had always been chaotic and unclear would finally have a knot, and she believed in her fate, even if she was unwilling, she was helpless.
"Ayin...... I"
"Bang-"
The door was slammed open, and the loud sound startled the two people in the room, but it was only for a moment, and even Cen Run, who had always been calm, changed his face.
"Sons and daughters greet their fathers and grandmothers!"
"The slave has seen the emperor and the queen mother!"
