Outside the window of the first section, a lightning bolt pierced the dark night, and the dull thunder roared like a cannon, making people palpitate. Like a signal from the gods, a torrential downpour of rain poured down from the crack torn by the lightning. The whole city of Nanning is full of wind and thunder, and it is as dark as a prison.

There shouldn't have been such a heavy rain this season, Xiaobi held a wax table in one hand, walked along the corridor, and walked towards Tao Yu's residence. When she walked to the door of Tao Yu's bedroom, listening to the chaotic sound of rain outside, her heart was also a mess. Xiao Tianzi was born, but as the closest person to Niangniang at present, she knew that it contained a shocking conspiracy.

"Why is this happening, why is this happening?" She looked at the dark night and couldn't help but murmur in a low voice.

Suddenly, there was a "squeak", and the bedroom door was pushed open. Her hand trembled, and a candle tear dripped on the back of her hand, and she felt a piercing pain. The door opened, and Hu Yong walked out of it with a fistula.

She settled down and said softly: "Doctor Hu, is Niangniang feeling better now?" As soon as the words fell, a bolt of lightning twisted like a snake and struck his head. The two of them exclaimed at the same time, and retreated several large steps in a row.

The plums in the courtyard had not yet sprouted, and under the gloomy lightning, the bare branches looked like the arms of countless ghosts. Even the gilded Buddha statue in the corridor appeared and disappeared in the lightning, like an angry King Kong. Hu Yong waited for the thunder to stop for a while, and then said in a hoarse voice: "It's still the same, the root of Niangniang's disease is in the heart, and heart disease still needs heart medicine to be treated." Otherwise, it can't be cured. ”

Although the sky was very dark, Xiaobi still saw Hu Yong's appearance clearly through the afterglow of lightning. His hair was almost completely white, his cheeks were fleshless, and his eye sockets were sunken into it.

She felt a chill in her heart, for the Eastern Han Dynasty, she didn't know whether this matter was good or bad? She thought a little dazed. Maybe, if my uncle is here, I can get an idea for myself.

She shook her head, trying to shake off the unrealistic idea. Wu Ming should still be in Kyoto by now, perhaps already arrested by those people in the north. So, what should you do now? Who to go to?

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the water under the eaves had flowed into a straight line, falling like a string. She looked at the rain line and whispered at a loss, "Imperial Doctor, what should we do now?" ”

In the dark, Hu Yong's deep voice came: "Niangniang's health is not very good, and she is often in a coma." The little princess stayed by her side, and I was afraid that I would not take good care of her. And, and ......"

Xiaobi couldn't help but sink her heart when she heard him say this. She felt a dry feeling in her mouth, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "And what? Hu Yong was silent for a long time before he whispered: "The little princess is not a way to put it here after all." I'm afraid they're going to be bad for her. ”

Although he didn't say who "they" were, Xiaobi understood. She was stunned, and said involuntarily: "No, the little princess is the emperor's noble, they really dare to do it." Hu Yong sighed, but did not speak. The two sides were silent for a while, and after a while, Hu Yong said in a low voice: "Miss Xiaobi, go in quickly, Niangniang just said that she had something to do with you." I'm just waiting outside. ”

She was stunned, "Oh. "Yes. It's a little strange in my heart. After Tao Yu gave birth, his body has been very weak, and he has a lot less time to talk to himself. It's the first time I've looked for myself so solemnly. Despite her doubts, she pushed open the bedroom door and walked inside.

There were several candlesticks lit in the room. The night wind roared, lifting the torrential rain on the window lattice, making a "crackling" sound. Then it swept straight by, and let out a low whine, as if sobbing in the night. The candlestick shook as well. Bibi took a few steps, put the candlestick in her hand on the table, and then closed the window that was a little loose.

Tao Yu's voice floated faintly from the head of the bed: "Xiaobi, is it you?" She hurriedly turned her head, walked to the head of the bed and stood still, and said in a low voice: "Niangniang, are you feeling better today?" Maybe she had just given birth, Tao Yu was now very clean, her face was abnormally blue and white in the candlelight, and she was elbows up, as if she wanted to get up. Xiaobi hurriedly helped her lean on the head of the bed.

Tao Yu sat up and glanced at the baby beside him lovingly. The little one slept soundly. The eyes were closed tightly, like two threads. The mouth is still moving, as if recalling the sweetness of the mother juice just now. Tao Yu sighed and suddenly said, "Xiaobi, how does our royal treat you?" ”

Xiaobi's body was shocked, and she quickly knelt down and said: "Xiaobi is just a lonely and helpless little palace maid, thanks to the princess's affordability, she is accepted as a maid and regarded as a sister." The royal family is like a reborn parent to me. ”

Tao Yu nodded, and after a while, he said again: "I want to ask you for something." ”

Xiaobi knelt there respectfully, kowtowed and said, "Niangniang, there is something wrong, but please command." Xiaobi will definitely do her best to complete it. Please, Xiaobi is ashamed. She said this, and then fell to the ground. After a long time, Tao Yu did not move. She secretly wondered in her heart, although Tao Yu's temperament was much colder than before, the whole person was separated by a membrane. But the nature is still relatively easy-going, and he is also very good to his subordinates. In the past, at this time, she had to let herself get up without being rude.

She was a little uneasy in her heart, and couldn't help but raise her head and glance at Tao Yu, who was sitting at the head of the bed. Tao Yu had already held the little princess in her arms at some point, and she put her face on the little guy's face. But he was muttering something in a low voice. The candlelight flickered in the night wind, shaking Tao Yu's whole face in a trance. But Xiaobi's eyes were sharp, but she found that her eyes were full of tears. Tao Yu calmed down, and only after a while did he say softly: "Xiaobi, it's dark tonight, you can take the little princess and go overnight." I was worried that if she stayed with me, her life would be lost. ”

Outside the window, there was another flash of lightning, and the reflection was miserable everywhere. Then a thunderbolt rang out, and the room was lit up instantly. Xiaobi seemed to be taken aback, screamed, forgot the etiquette, and turned over and sat on the floor. The little creature was finally awakened, opened his little mouth, and began to cry in a milky voice. In the sound of wind and rain, it is even more desolate.

Niangniang wants to take the little princess to escape overnight? But the world is big, where can you go? She was still at a loss for what to do. People also seem to be sitting in a cloud, soft and without any strength, as if as long as they move him, they will fall into the abyss.

Tao Yu smiled sadly: "What, don't you want to?" ”

Xiaobi got up from the ground in a panic, and said repeatedly: "Niangniang, if Xiaobi shirks it, the little princess is still young, and she can't do without you." ”

Tao Yu coaxed the crying little guy and said, "If she follows me, even the most basic right to survive will be taken away." That's the real sorry for her. After all, I gave birth to a boy, a little son of heaven in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the name Zhu Governor has thought of it, called Xuanyuan Fu. Tomorrow will be brought over and raised by me. If you don't send her out now, tomorrow I hope the governor will personally find a good family for her to send out. Speaking of this, she paused and said, "I'm not at ease. ”

Xiaobi was almost stunned, although she didn't want to believe that what Tao Yu said was true. But I have to admit that what Niangniang said is the truth. She knelt down again and said in a trembling voice: "Niangniang, Xiaobi must find a good family for the little princess, so that she can grow up quietly." ”

Under the coaxing of Tao Yu, the little guy gradually quieted down. Tao Yu gently kissed her pink forehead, and then handed it to Xiaobi with trembling hands. He said in a hoarse voice: "You can take the little princess away at night, as for the guards outside." Doctor Hu will help you. ”

Xiaobi hugged the little princess, took a few steps back, saluted Tao Yu, and cried: "Niangniang, take care." When she raised her head, she saw that Tao Yu had already lay down, leaving only her back and her head full of green silk, but her shoulders were shaking terribly. She hugged the little princess a little dazedly, and picked up the oil-paper umbrella leaning against the door. Then he opened the door and walked out from the inside.
