Chapter 10: The Lost Child
Chapter 10: The Lost Child
The voice was too familiar, and he didn't need to go over to be sure that he was there, Ouyang Yu's hand shaking the cool fan stopped, and her footsteps didn't move again, she stood quietly under the shade of the tree.
Yan Feng walked and walked with Qianyu with mint candy on his back, feeling that there was no movement behind him, Yan Feng turned around and saw Ouyang Yu who was in a daze, he didn't know what was going on for a while, seeing that his mother didn't follow, Yan Feng put down Qianyu and didn't leave, he only heard a voice not far away, but he didn't know that his queen mother, who had an excellent kung fu foundation, could clearly hear their conversation, and the content made her very unhappy.
"Your Majesty, the queen has been ignoring the harem for half a year, and the monthly distribution and accounts of the sisters are all taken care of by the concubines, and I really don't want to go" If you heard it right, this is the graceful beauty of Ji Chenxuan, it seems that she has really gained a good momentum, it is really like the rumors outside, the king treats her really well, but a beautiful woman, who can take care of the affairs of the harem, it seems that she is not a junior.
"That's really hard for you, this king will let the dining room stew some supplements for you tonight" is Gongsun Yuting's faint voice, although he didn't see him, but he could imagine his current appearance, he must be full of smiles, Ouyang Yu frowned.
"Mother, what's wrong with you? But uncomfortable? Yan Feng's voice came in his ears, and Ouyang Yu came back to his senses only to find that the cool fan in his hand had fallen off at some point, and Yan Feng was holding the fan to call himself.
"The queen mother is fine, Yan Feng, shall we go back?" Ouyang Yu forced herself not to listen to his voice, and smiled at Yan Feng without incident, at this moment she just wanted to get out of here quickly and leave before he found out.
"Okay, got it" Yan Feng responded, picked up Qianyu again and walked on the path when he came, Ouyang Yu couldn't see the expression on his face, and he didn't hear that he was unhappy, so he was relieved.
Gongsun Yuting, who was sitting in the Yueru Song Pavilion, suddenly frowned, a pair of eyes turned slightly, his eyes were raised slightly, and he glanced to the side intentionally or unintentionally, until he was sure that there was no movement in the distance, the wine glass in his hand was crushed by him, and the concubines sitting next to him were startled, and they all knelt on the ground, they didn't know what was going on, and the king who was fine just now said that it had changed.
The palace ladies of Zhilan Hall were cleaning inside and out, taking advantage of Ouyang Yu to take the prince and princess out at this time to change the beds and curtains in the house, when everyone was busy, they heard footsteps outside, everyone thought that it was the king who drove the Zhilan Palace, and they all packed up their hands, and everyone was overjoyed, and they all crowded to the door to greet them.
As soon as everyone arrived at the door, they saw Ouyang Yu and the child walking towards the Zhilan Palace, they were stunned for a while, there was inevitably some disappointment on their faces, Ouyang Yu smiled, she probably guessed what was going on, and she couldn't complain about them being anxious if she thought about it, counting the days, the king had not stepped into the Zhilan Hall for half a year, and it was natural to be anxious, and if he was not in a hurry, he would really fall out of favor.
After Ouyang Yu came back, because the bed curtains in the dormitory were all removed and washed, and the new ones had not been paved for a while, and there was no place to rest, so he temporarily went to the innermost maid's room in the corridor, which was the place where the palace ladies rested on weekdays, and the two children also went together, although the maid's room was a place for the palace ladies to rest, but the decoration was also good, Ouyang Yu liked this kind of quiet and simple room, so he rested peacefully.
The energetic Yan Feng took Qianyu to play in the courtyard, the sultry weather did not affect the child's playful mood at all, Qianyu sat in the flowers and watched Yan Feng dance the sword under the scorching sun, although she didn't know what it was, but she seemed very happy, giggling from time to time, indistinct screaming, Yan Feng was in a good mood to get the encouragement of his sister, and danced the sword in his hand more hard.
Yan Feng inherited the advantages of Gongsun Yuting, but he was quite handsome at a young age, with a pair of sharp eyes, a small and tall nose, eyebrows like a sword, pink lips like petals, and a heroic posture that exudes light at any time, but it is a pity that now he rarely appears in the place outside the Zhilan Palace, and he is practicing swords in the courtyard or going to the study on weekdays, and the master in the palace comes to teach on time every day.
"Qianyu, my brother is thirsty, go back to the house and drink saliva, you stay here and wait for me, you can't run around!" Yan Feng, who had practiced swords under the scorching sun for a long time, began to be thirsty and planned to go back to drink water, so he put the sword back into the sheath and instructed a thousand words,
"Hmm... Qianyu, who was sitting on the grass eating mint cake, raised her head and grinned, nodded her little head as if she didn't understand, and when she agreed, Yan Feng left and went back.
Qianyu, who was sitting on the grass, saw his brother leave, he was a little anxious, holding back his little face that wanted to cry, shaking his little body and walking out, in fact, Qianyu, who was less than eleven months old, didn't know what Yan Feng meant by saying so many words, children, they would only simply nod and shake their heads, coincidentally, Qianyu nodded just now, so Yan Feng would go back with confidence.
The little Qianyu left the courtyard and walked out directly, she felt that her brother went to the place just now, perhaps, in the child's understanding, Yueru Geting is the place to start, and this is the place to play, so she went out along the road outside, and she didn't cry after falling several times on the road, and gradually got farther and farther away from the Zhilan Palace, until the little figure disappeared.
After all, Qianyu is a child, leaving the adult, leaving the Zhilan Hall is completely lost, after walking for a while, it is estimated that he is tired, and the last time he fell, he had no strength to get up, so he simply sat on the ground and played with the mud, and this place is a small garden far away from the Yueru Song Pavilion, and it happened to be planted with the same flowers as the Zhilan Palace, looking at the wet ground, it must have been watered not long ago, and the place where Qianyu sat was also wet, she felt that it felt just right, sitting on it, her body was not hot, Happily playing with the mud in the puddle.
It didn't take long for Qianyu's turquoise dress to be unrecognizable, but she climbed from one puddle to another, and she didn't mean to be tired at all, she was covered with mud from head to toe, and she was having fun, and she dug a lot of dirt out of the flower pot next to her.
Gongsun Yuting, who left the Yueru Song Pavilion, was not in a very good mood, coupled with the sultry weather, he walked more aimlessly, with a lot of thoughts, and unconsciously walked to an unfamiliar place, it turned out to be a small garden, looking at the flowers in the garden, he thought that he had come to the Zhilan Palace, and was about to leave quietly, and out of the corner of his eye, he accidentally saw something moving in the puddle next to the flower pot, and there were many flower branches scattered on the side, which seemed to have been deliberately destroyed, Gongsun Yuting frowned, and quietly came to the back of those flower pots, I'm about to find out the saboteur.
"Bah... There was a burst of sound from the puddle, Gongsun Yuting was startled, and looked over quietly, Gongsun Yuting almost didn't laugh.
It turned out that there was a child covered in mud sitting in the puddle, and his face was too, and his hair was almost sticking together, he sighed, slowly walked up to the child and squatted down, staring at her with a curious expression, and it was barely obvious from the dress that it was a woman's surname.
"What are you doing?" Gongsun Yuting knocked on Qianyu's little head, and Qianyu looked up at him, with a familiar look and a familiar feeling.
"Babble... Elder brother... Brother" Qianyu grinned, got up from the ground, and threw himself into Gongsun Yuting's arms one by one, still grabbing his clothes and shaking them, as if he was coquettish.
"Brother?" Gongsun Yuting was confused, but he didn't know why when the child threw himself into his arms, he seemed to have an inexplicable sense of satisfaction, and his heart was very comfortable.
Qianyu nested in Gongsun Yuting's broad arms, her little face kept rubbing against his chest, and the dry mud made her feel uncomfortable, and she cried with a wow.
Gongsun Yuting was startled when he saw her crying, thinking that he had hurt her, he was at a loss, and asked her where she was uncomfortable, she just babbled and cried, and couldn't communicate at all, so she had no choice but to take it back first, wash her first, and talk about the rest.
"Which palace is it, so careless, leaving such a young child here alone, this king has to ask carefully" Gongsun Yuting left the small garden with Qianyu covered in mud, he just left, and Yan Feng, who was looking for Qianyu all the way, happened to find here.
"Don't cry, don't cry, it's coming soon, it's just ahead" Gongsun Yuting exerted unprecedented patience and coaxed Qianyu along the way, and along the way, Qianyu didn't cry anymore, but lay on Gongsun Yuting's shoulder and played with his hair.
Gongsun Yuting hugged Qianyu back to the palace covered in mud, the palace ladies in the whole palace were busy, and the palace ladies inside and outside were frightened, when did they see the king so embarrassed, not only on his face, hair, and body covered with mud, but also brought back a child he had never seen before, Gongsun Yuting instructed his subordinates to inquire, but no one heard really reliable news.
"No one has seen it? Could it be..."Gongsun Yuting suddenly smiled faintly, took off his outer robe, and threw it on the ground, he seemed to know what was wrong.
"Your Majesty, the water is ready, the child is taking a bath, or else the king..."
"No, I'll go over and see the kid now, you go down and prepare a set of her clothes, don't be too gorgeous, just be plain" Gongsun Yuting pushed open the door, walked out with a smile on his face, wearing a dark corset, and went to the bath after giving the order.
The ladies of the bath had already received a rumor that the king was coming, and when Gongsun Yuting arrived there, all the people were outside the door to greet him, and he looked at the items in the hands of the maids, which were the same as the things he used when he bathed in the bath, so he didn't say anything.
