Chapter 22: Joy; sad

Li Yue was surprised, she stood up abruptly and let go of the salute.

"The prince must not! The concubine can't stand this gift! The concubine deserves to die, I hope the prince will forgive the sin! So saying, he bent down and knelt down.

Xiao Chuhe helplessly stretched out his hand to help her up: "No, you get up!" It's not mine, you're right! ”

The two stood up straight, Xiao Chuhe held Li Yue's hand, and looked at her with guilt in his eyes: "You have followed me for so many years and have two sons for me. After hurting my body, I risked my life to give birth to Ruoruo for me, you are a great hero of my Xiao family! If you hadn't spoken your heart today, I might never have noticed that I had been snubbing you like this. ”

Saying that, he hugged his beloved wife into his arms and hugged him tightly: "Is it for the husband?" In the future, the husband will be doubly good to you! ”

Li Yue nestled in Xiao Chuhe's arms, and two lines of hot tears slid down. At this moment, her heart feels like being soaked in a honey pot, and it feels so sweet!

"Lord Wang, General Pei asks to see you!" Outside the door, the voice of the head of the house Li came.

The two people in the room let go of each other with red faces the moment the voice sounded. Li Yue lowered her head, her face flushed. Xiao Chuhe looked at her shy appearance, his eyes straightened, and he suddenly scolded Li Fu in his heart!

"Ahem...... Please come to the lobby and serve tea! Although he was a little dissatisfied with Li Fu for ruining his good deeds, he still opened his mouth with a little embarrassment.

"Yes!" Outside the house, Li Fu bent down and retreated, leaving only a series of footsteps.

Xiao Chuhe wanted to say something in the house, but when he looked up, he saw that Li Yue's earlobes were faintly pink, and his open mouth closed again, just walking towards the door with messy steps, but he didn't take two steps but he tripped over himself and fell into the mud! Li Yue couldn't hold back, poofed, and laughed out loud!

He instantly blushed and left in a hurry.

In the front hall, Pei Shangying, who had a white beard, sat on the main seat, still holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, but he didn't put it in his mouth. When Xiao Chuhe came, he was anxiously looking out of the door. After seeing Xiao Chuhe, he immediately got up to greet him.

"Wechen meets the prince!" Pei Shangying clasped her fists and saluted, with obvious joy on her face.

Xiao Chuhe hurriedly stretched out his hand to help him up, and then invited him to sit down, and the servants re-served two cups of hot tea for the two. After the two of them sat down, Pei Shangying couldn't wait to speak.

"Lord Wang, the purpose of Weichen's visit today, you must know in your heart, I don't know what the prince has planned?"

Xiao Chuhe took a sip of tea, put down the teacup without hurrying, and then glanced at Pei Shangying with a complicated face.

"This king doesn't know what the purpose of General Pei Lao came to visit this king today, it's just to visit this king."

When Pei Shangying heard this, she was anxious! was about to speak, but was stopped by Xiao Chuhe.

"General, as courtiers, we must be loyal to the country, and nothing else matters! You came to visit this king today, presumably for Yi'er, right? If it's his birthday next month, he'll be back. At that time, this king will let him go to the General's Mansion to visit Qingshuang! ”

After listening to Xiao Chuhe's words, Pei Shangying understood what he meant. It's just that I have some mixed feelings in my heart.

Then he sighed again and persuaded: "Lord Wang, the old man understands what you mean. It's just that now, the emperor is becoming more and more violent and uncertain. Last time...... The attitude towards the prince made the old man's heart tremble, if you don't plan early...... That's it! ”

Seeing Xiao Chuhe's appearance of oil and salt not entering, he didn't have the heart to continue. stood up, said goodbye to Xiao Chuhe, and then left Prince Gong's mansion.

And Xiao Chuhe sat alone in the main hall for a long, long time.

Pei Shangying returned to the General's Mansion disappointed, and before he entered the door, he saw a figure coming out of the door.

The person who came was a woman. The long hair is fluttering, and the head is tied in a bun with a beaded hairpin. Dressed in a plain snow silk skirt, a gold silk inlaid white jade pendant was pinned to her waist. The appearance is beautiful and refined, and she looks like a famous lady! At this time, her eyebrows were smiling, and the corners of her lips were raised.

"Grandpa, you're back!" Pei Qingshuang picked up the corner of her skirt and walked down the steps quickly.

Pei Shangying looked worried, and quickened her pace: "Qingshuang, you slow down, be careful!" ”

He held Pei Qingshuang's arm, for fear that she would make a mistake! After she stood still, she let go of her hand: "Why did you think of coming out for a walk today?" ”

As he asked, he stretched out his other hand and touched the top of her head, his face full of bitterness. The daughter-in-law fell while pregnant with Qingshuang, and Qingshuang was born early. Because of the lack of months, there was only a skinny one when he was born, and then he was carefully taken care of and slowly grew up. But the bones of the body are extremely weak, and they cannot blow the wind, nor can they stand the cold, nor can they be frightened, nor can they rejoice...... The whole is a porcelain doll that is easy to fall and fragile! Over the years, it has been carefully raised.

Pei Qingshuang smiled, grabbed Pei Shangying's arm affectionately, and raised her little face to rub it on it: "Qingshuang is suffocating in the room!" I just want to go to my grandfather. But Fluttershy says that her grandfather is not in the house, so Sunny comes to the door and waits for her grandfather to come back! ”

Hearing this, Pei Shangying's face was furious: "Nonsense! The wind is already strong in autumn, what should I do if I catch a cold? Then he turned around and said, "Fluttershy, send Miss back to her room!" Miss has any mistakes, I'll ask you! ”

Pei Qingshuang silently let go of her hand, lowered her head slightly, and said nothing. Pei Shangying saw it, and secretly said that he was serious. So he softened his voice again: "Qingshuang, your body is weak, and grandpa doesn't want you to feel any discomfort." Well, you go back to your room to rest first, and grandpa will come to see you in a while. ”

She just nods her head and leaves with Fluttershy.

————————————————————

On the way back to the room, Fluttershy looked at Pei Qingshuang, who was silent, and comforted, "Miss, the general is also for your good, I feel sorry for you, don't be sad!" ”

"I know." Pei Qingshuang raised her head, her eyes flushed, "I always knew that my health was not good." For as long as I can remember, I can't do without taking medicine, three times a day, and I haven't stopped once. I also know that I can't blow the wind or get cold...... But what's the point of living like this? Every time I see my grandfather, my father and my mother worried about my body, my heart is uncomfortable! I thought, it's better for me to be alive than dead! That way, grandpa, they won't have to worry about me anymore! ”

"But I saw that in this world there are red flowers and green leaves; There are cute kittens and puppies, mighty lions and tigers; There are blue skies and white clouds, thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, as well as grandpa, dad and mother, I am reluctant to leave like this, I am really reluctant! ”

She wipes away the tears from her face and turns to look at Fluttershy, "Actually, there are times when I envy you healthy people. You can laugh, you can cry, you can raise a glass, you can go around...... And I, on the other hand, can only nest in the room, holding the medicine bowl, sitting alone from dawn to dark, waiting for when I will be free......"

Fluttershy choked up in her throat and her nose soured, and tears flowed, "Miss, don't be sad! The world is so big, there is always someone who can save you! ”

Pei Shangying, who hurried over after changing her clothes, stood not far behind them, listening to their conversation clearly, and at the same time, the guilt in her heart became more and more intense!

He was in tears, but he gritted his teeth, trying not to make a sound. After about a stick of incense, he resolutely left.

Qingshuang, grandpa will definitely find a way to save you!
