Chapter 7: Bad News
Hou Cong paced over, and after a moment's pause, Qing Song urged, "Big boy? β
"Oh, how's she doing? Has the doctor been here again? β
Qingsong had already walked forward, "I've been here again, just saying that I want to rest." β
Hou Cong didn't have any excuse to stand down anymore, passed through the corridor, went down the steps, and went to check the sentry.
Bai Yi is in his room at the moment. Her wound was itching, and she couldn't do anything, so she had to lean on the bed and tease Xiao Hou Cong to play.
The real Hou Cong passed by her door, stopped, spoke, and walked away, she heard it clearly. I wanted to go out to see him, but I had no reason, I just felt that his footsteps were on my heart, and when I couldn't hear it, my heart was empty.
When Hou Cong came back from the checkout, he passed by again, Baiyi's heart hung up, and he even stopped breathing, although there were others following him, but which step was taken by him and which step was taken by others, she still heard it clearly.
After a while, her brother came to her, "It's your turn to be on duty." β
Bai Yi packed up and walked out of the room. I only heard a sound in Hou Cong's room, first his boots on the ground, and then the door opened.
But it was still a beat slower, and Changkong had already stuffed the white clothes into Mo Chang's room and merged with the fluorescence.
Mo Chang smiled when he saw the white clothes, "How is the wound?" β
"It's almost there."
"At your time on duty, you can have lunch here."
"Yes."
Mo Chang was idle, and told Bai Yi and Fluorescence about his family, a few younger brothers, Xinjun and his childhood: "The emperor loved to get lost when he was a child. Doing hide in the palace, they were originally looking for me, but later everyone looked for him. Every time I found him, he hugged me and cried. Timid. Because of her weak personality, the queen mother, as an aunt, likes this imperial nephew very much, speaking of which, the emperor spends more time in the palace than in the palace. I spent more time with him than with other brothers. β
Ling Xiao didn't think about it, and blurted out, "That must be affectionate." β
"It must be." Mo Chang smiled bitterly. "So, I'm thinking about who the emperor will send to pick me up, when he will pick me up, pick me up, and where to arrange it."
Fluorescent and Baiyi were already silent, and they didn't know how to comfort Mo Chang at the moment. Cuizhu pouted, "You are the concubine of the first emperor, the queen mother is your own mother, and the queen mother is still in the palace, shouldn't the mother and son be reunited?" Otherwise, you should be allowed to go back to the original prince's mansion! Because Mo Chang was silent, Cuizhu deliberately wanted to say something she didn't know about for the sake of being a little angry, "When our Royal Highness was the prince of the East Palace, he didn't live in the palace like the prince of Liguo, and he had a mansion!" β
Ling Xiao is not stupid, he has already understood it for so many days - the little family affection that Mo Chang has enjoyed is between him and his strict father, and then with the cousin who robbed him of the throne. A few half-brothers from the concubine, on the contrary, because they were jealous of their mothers-in-law, spent the capital early, and they didn't get together much.
As for being the crown prince, he did not set up an east palace in the palace, but opened a prince's mansion outside, in addition to showing that the mother and son are weak, is there anything remarkable?
Ling Xiao felt sorry for Mo Chang in his heart, and he had another determination to protect him and compensate him.
Bai Yi didn't think about it so much, and asked idly: "No matter where you live, the reunion of mother and son should be, I don't know if it's after bathing in the Buddha and humiliating the ceremony?" β
Fluorescent took over, "That depends on when the ceremony is scheduled." β
"I heard that the new monarch of Chengguo has the eldest son, who is five years old." Cuizhu heard this, of course, he heard from "Mo Chang". Today's little prince, before Mo Chang went into battle, used to cry and send him off. However, due to the strictness of Mo Chang's father and queen mother, he and his cousin, who is now the emperor, have not officially married a wife.
The former crown prince has returned, and the new monarch did not sit on the throne to warm his buttocks, let alone set up a queen or a prince. Chengguo, will it really be as chaotic as Liguo expects?
A voice rang out from outside the door, "The eldest son." β
Next, it was Hou Cong who said in a sullen voice, "What are you doing?" β
"What are you doing?"
"I'll look at Your Highness, can't I?"
"Of course," said the hippie smile, "but there's something going on over thereβit seems like an envoy from Chengguo has arrived." β
Mo Chang's heart moved, and he only heard Hou Cong's footsteps hurrying away. Then, Qingsong knocked on the door and came in, "Your Highness, I have something to look for the girl in white." β
Of course Mo Chang couldn't say anything, Bai Yi went out in a daze, and was pulled back to her own room by Qing Song, "Girl, stay here for a while, the doctor is coming." β
In this way, after waiting outside the inn for a long time, and finding that Changkong was "wrong", he kicked him and came back, entered Mo Chang's room, but did not see the white clothes.
With a straight face, he arranged for an afternoon meal and asked how the fluorescence was on duty.
"No surprises." Fluorescence said.
Hou Cong thought about it and asked where Bai Yi went.
Ling Xiao let out an "oh", "It seems that someone helped hire a doctor and went back to the house." β
Hou Cong looked over from where he was standing, the door of the white-clothed room was closed, and after a while, sure enough, a doctor came out of it and went downstairs.
The door to the white-clothed room was closed.
Hou Cong looked at the fluorescence, "What's the matter with her?" Doesn't she have to be on duty? β
Before Fluorescence could answer, the door of the white-clothed room opened again, Hou Cong hurriedly looked over, but it was Qingsong who came out.
"Oh, eldest prince," said Qing Song, "the doctor said that the girl in white should not be on duty. Must be bedridden, bedridden. β
From that moment on, Bai Yi and Hou Cong really completed Changkong's plan and entered a "state of isolation" - the doctor was bought by Changkong, and even coaxed and scared Bai Yi for a while, "You must not get out of bed, don't go out, you must rest until the scab is completed." β
She was lazy to go out and see people - first, because she was cold by Hou Cong that night, and her mood was always low; Second, because she has arrived in Jiangnan, she is getting closer and closer to the last moment of replacing the deceased, and her mood is not to be understood by others, but she herself does not understand.
She just wanted to hide.
The inn was full of soldiers and captains, protecting Mo Chang. What's more, this is already the land of Chengguo, and the people of Chengguo will not send any assassins to assassinate them. In this way, it is better to do nothing, see no one, lie on the bed and hold Xiao Hou Cong to recuperate.
As for Hou Cong, he suddenly found that Baiyi, the person he had been trying to push away in the past few days, but kept thinking about it in his heart, had "disappeared": she didn't go out, and Changkong was personally responsible for food and clothing and sent it to her house. Occasionally, he could hear a slight bustle in the corridor, and it was Dugu Zheng and others who came into her room to visit the sick. He craned his ears, and he could only hear Yuan Youdugu chirping, but he couldn't hear the voice of the white clothes.
Day after day, this is not the anxiety and sadness that can be described by lovesickness or loss.
Day after day, the only "intersection" between him and Bai Yi is to eat not a drop of the soup mixed with medicinal powder.
Seven days later, in the early hours of that night, Hou Cong woke up from his dream.
Dreams are beautiful dreams. In the slightly cool satin quilt, he finally grabbed the white clothes. She has slightly cool skin. It rained lightly in the south of the Yangtze River for seven days.
He kissed her, and then, coaxing her, kissed himself.
So true.
What woke him up was Murong Xing's knock on the door.
"The eldest prince?"
"Well, say."
"The eldest prince, Datong has an urgent official document of eight hundred miles over there, the emperor, Bintian."
