309. 18 Father and daughter meet
As soon as Shu Yunjian heard this, he put down the medical book in his hand and stood up from the Luohan bed. She stared at the moon-white flowing cloud pattern brocade robe, and a smile appeared on her delicate and elegant face. She took Mo Mo with her hand, glanced at the sleeping Mo Mo, and then looked at Hua Qingmo, her eyes were as clear as water: "Why don't you go by yourself?" The fiancΓ©e of the sixth prince has just been married to the fourth prince, and he is now very short of women around him. β
The joke of these words made Hua Qingmo laugh softly, and her elegant face was like a water moon, as beautiful as jade. She stretched out her hand and put it on Mo Mo's swaddling clothes, her fingers gently flicked the brocade quilt, her fingertips caressed Mo Mo's soft cheeks, her eyes stared at her increasingly delicate facial features, and said, "I have finally made up my mind to break away from his wings now, if I go to see him tonight, I am afraid that I will be weak again." I don't know how other couples get along, but I want those old antiques of the Linyue royal family to know that the woman of Bai Zixiao is definitely not inferior to any woman, nor is it inferior to any man. β
After finishing speaking, Hua Qingmo untied the crystal bell that she had been carrying around her neck and looked at it. The edges and corners of the crystal reflect the brilliant light, and when it shakes slightly, the crisp sound is like a shallow movement of clear waves, which is pleasant and comfortable.
Put the crystal bell on Mo Mo, Hua Qingmo leaned over and kissed Mo Mo, and said softly: "Mo Mo, when your mother is away, you will obediently follow your father, he has a bad temper, you have to be well-behaved." β
Seeing Hua Qingmo like this, Shu Yunjian knew that even if she persuaded her again, she would not go to see Bai Zixiao. Although Hua Qingmo looks calm and composed, she is actually the same as her, and she will not change if she decides. I am like this, so why do I have to say about others?
"Okay, I'll send Mo Mo to the Shu Wang's Mansion tomorrow, but you also have to tell me what secret order Emperor Linyue gave you, so that when I go to see the Sixth Prince, I can talk so that I won't be unable to answer anything. And are you really going to disappear so silently and without a word? Shu Yunjian looked at Hua Qingmo, and his voice was as cool as the wind. Since Yun Linghua has been delivered, she also has to return to Tianyuan. Now I'm afraid that this thing can be done for Hua Qingmo in the end, and she wants to help the couple well.
"This matter ......" Hua Qingmo looked at the book, and unconsciously touched the things in the baggage, a little hesitant. It's not that she doesn't believe in Shuyunjian, it's just that this matter is very important, and if it really leaks out, something really will happen. It's just that what Shu Yunjian said is also right, if she gives Mo Mo to Bai Zixiao like this and disappears silently, Bai Zixiao will inevitably go to investigate this matter secretly, and in the end he will still know.
Narrowing her eyes slightly, Hua Qingmo sighed and said in a clear voice: "The emperor has issued an order this time to divide the 400,000 army into three routes and seize the territory of Xiaoyao Country, and I will lead 100,000 soldiers to attack from the east. β
"Captured?" Shu Yunjian was slightly stunned, and his eyes were full of surprise. Surrounded by the Three Kingdoms of Tianyuan, Linyue and the Eastern Sage, the terrain is long and narrow. Because the country has little contact with the outside world, other countries basically know nothing about its domestic affairs. However, Dongsheng once sent people to attack the Xiaoyao Kingdom, and the 200,000 troops were completely wiped out in one night, and even the Xiaoyao Land was never set foot in, and after that, no other country dared to think about the Xiaoyao Kingdom.
And now, the Linyue Emperor sent an army of 400,000 to capture the Xiaoyao Kingdom, which is really a bit strange.
"Qingmo, the country of Xiaoyao is mysterious and unknown, what we know in Tianyuan is that it has been established for thousands of years, and nothing else is known. Now that Emperor Linyue has lived peacefully with Xiaoyao for hundreds of years, he suddenly wants to capture Xiaoyao Land, and this matter must have a deep meaning. Shu Yunjian's tone was slightly solemn, although the matter of Linyue Kingdom had nothing to do with her. But if it involves Tianyuan, then it's a different matter.
What Shu Yunjian said, Hua Qingmo could naturally think of. However, this is her first battle after being named a general, and she will definitely fight it well.
"I know, but the decree has been given, and there is no room for turnback." Hua Qingmo smiled faintly, and her smile was extremely calm. Then she looked at Mo Mo again, her eyes full of reluctance. Mo Mo is only three months old and is about to leave her mother, and she is really a little ruthless this time. However, the battlefield is ruthless, and it is impossible for her to bring Mo Mo to the battlefield.
"That's right." Shu Yunjian nodded, then reached out and patted the back of Hua Qingmo's hand, and said, "No matter what, be careful, Mo Mo is waiting for you here, you must come back unscathed." β
"Well, I will." Hua Qingmo replied, and then walked directly outside.
When she arrived at the door, Mo Mo suddenly seemed to feel it and cried. Hua Qingmo's footsteps suddenly stopped, her eyes looked at the boundless and gloomy night in front of her, and her expression was extremely solemn. Clenching her hands, Hua Qingmo clenched her teeth, resisted the urge to turn back, and said softly, "I'm sorry." β
After finishing speaking, Hua Qingmo walked out of the room directly, walked into the boundless darkness, and never looked back.
Looking at the empty door, Shuyun soothed Mo Mo, who was crying incessantly, and a slight smile rose on the corner of her lips. Although she really wanted to listen to Hua Qingmo's words and send Mo Mo to the Shuwang Mansion tomorrow, since she got Yunling Flower, she didn't want to waste a little more time.
Then she summoned Chang Jing and Qiange and told them to pack up and prepare to leave Linyue tonight.
The Chu family's house is in the middle of Anyang City, about two quarters of an hour away from the Shuwang Mansion. Shuyun asked Chang Jing and them to pack up their things, and then they went to the Shuwang Mansion, which was already half an hour later.
Hua Qingmo didn't notify the cat when she left, and when Shuyun Jian came, she brought the cat with her
Standing in front of the gate of the Shuwang Mansion, Shu Yunjian looked at the two stone lions sitting in front of the door. It is exquisitely carved and majestic, with a male lion standing on the east side and a lion cub under its front paws. Then, Shuyun looked at the plaque above the vermilion gate, looking at the three characters carved in red gold on it, and the corners of his delicate lips were slightly hooked.
It seems that the position of this Shu Wangfu in the Linyue royal family is not ordinary.
"Chang Jing." Shuyunjian turned his head and called, Chang Jing immediately stepped forward, walked up the steps, arrived at the gate of the Shuwang Mansion, and the guards outside, and said loudly: "Lao went to inform me, and said that Hua Qingmo asked to see the sixth prince." β
Hearing this, the guard glanced at Chang Jing up and down, and then looked at the book cloud note holding Mo Mo, and said, "The prince is not something that can be seen by any person, so the girl should leave!" β
As soon as the guard's words came out, when Chang Jing was about to speak, the cat looked at the guard, and her voice was extremely cold: "Then let Chu Xiangbai, Yexing, Mo Huai, or Mo Bo come out." β
"How can the girl know the names of the people around the prince so well?" When the guards heard the names of Chu Xiangbai and the others, they immediately became vigilant, and their voices were very different from just now.
"Stop talking nonsense, go and call them out, or I'll kill them." The cat looked at the guard coldly, his eyes as cold as snow. She was dressed in black, her exposed skin was as white as snow, and she looked thin and weak, but her whole body exuded a strong murderous aura.
The guard was stunned by the cat's words, how could an ordinary person dare to say such a thing in front of the palace? The guard walked into the Shuwang Mansion with a heavy face, and about a moment later, a man wearing a dark robe walked in. On the top of the robe, a four-clawed python is embroidered with gold and silver threads, the front placket is the head of the python, the python body winds up until the back, and the waist is wearing a blue and white jade dragon pattern jade buckle.
As soon as Mo Bo came out, he saw the cat standing outside, and immediately walked over, with surprise in his voice: "Cat, are you okay?" β
"Well, something happened, and it's finally back." The cat nodded, then pointed to Shuyunjian, looked at Mo Bo, and said, "This is a friend of the young master, I have something to see nine thousand years old." β
"Ma'am?" Mo Bo was suddenly startled when he heard the cat say the word young master. His eyes turned to Shuyunjian, and then he said politely: "Since the girl is a friend of the lady, please follow Mobo into the mansion." β
"Thank you." Shu Yunjian smiled lightly.
Following Mobo, Shuyun Jian came to the front of a pavilion. The surrounding guards were all wearing navy blue robes, similar in style to Mobo's dress, and the same four-clawed python embroidered with gold and silver thread, snaked up from the front placket, but all wore white jade unicorn jade buckles around their waists.
"Xiang Bai, has the prince slept?" Mo Bo stopped in front of the pavilion, looked at Chu Xiangbai on the side, and asked out loud.
"I haven't slept yet." Chu Xiangbai replied out loud, then he looked at the book and cloud note standing on the side, and then at the cat on the side, and asked Xiang Mobo: "What's going on?" How did you bring outsiders here? β
"The cat said that this is a friend of the lady, and she has something to ask to see the prince." Mobo replied aloud.
As soon as he heard this, Chu Xiangbai immediately looked at Shu Yunjian, and there was a slight concern in his voice: "May I ask the girl, how is our wife?" β
"Qingmo is very good, she asked me to come to see the sixth prince for something, hurry up and tell me, I will leave Anyang City tonight, time is urgent, it is not appropriate to stay longer." Shu Yunjian looked at Chu Xiangbai, and there was an indescribable calmness on his delicate and beautiful face.
"Girl, don't worry, I'm going to tell the prince here." After Chu Xiangbai finished speaking, he went up to the pavilion.
Shu Yunjian looked at his back and looked down at Mo Mo who was holding in his arms. She reached out and lifted the brocade quilt covering Mo Mo's face, probably because it was a little hot to cover the quilt, and Mo Mo's white face was as white as snow, with an indescribable flush, as if the cherry blossoms were pervasive in early spring, delicate and moving.
A moment later, a voice came from the pavilion. Soon, the white purple flute, who was dressed in a stone blue dark pattern, slowly walked down, and when the palace lamp hanging high outside the pavilion outlined the outline of the white purple flute, Shuyun was a little surprised.
It was just a casual look that day, and Shu Yunjian didn't look at Bai Zixiao carefully, but he just felt that he looked very similar to Mo Mo. Now, when Bai Zixiao slowly walked towards her, Shuyunjian felt as if she saw a blood-colored flower blooming in the night, bewitching like a demon, rippling with a light like moonlight.
Bai Zixiao stopped two meters away from Shuyunjian, and glanced at Shuyunjian with deep eyes, and then his gaze fell on Mo Mo who was holding her in her arms, just casually glanced at it, and didn't think too much.
"What about her?" Bai Zixiao's voice was indifferent like the cold wind in the night, cold to the bone.
