It's just that when I think of so many years of entanglement and companionship, I will have to go to different places, and suddenly there is something wrong.

On the way back, she was always wilted and had no energy.

Yongzheng was worried that she was sick and sent her the imperial doctor, who only said that she was tired from the journey.

In mid-May, he returned to the capital.

The officials and the princes greeted them outside the city.

Back in the Old Summer Palace, Ni Chuhe changed his clothes, rested for a while, and then went to greet the Queen Mother.

Both kids are fine.

The boulder in Nichuhe's heart finally fell.

The Queen Mother asked about the situation on the road, and the journey was fine.

Ni Chuhe said briefly, in short, everything was fine, and the Queen Mother let him go.

From greeting the Queen Mother, picking up the child, to returning to the breeze of Jiyue, I didn't see Wu Yuechen.

Nichuhe didn't have much energy, and he didn't tease the two children, so he stopped.

It was getting dark.

A fluffy mass rubbed against her ear.

Nichuhe was awakened.

When I opened my eyes, I saw a black mass in front of me, and when I looked again, it was Xiao Hei, meowing at her.

Ni Chuhe was angry and grabbed its ear, "You still dare to come back?" I think you're getting more and more ignorant! ”

The black cat meowed, kicked and kicked her limbs, and looked at her with amber eyes teary eyes.

Nichuhe's sharp eyes saw that its hind legs were not dexterous, and hearing its cry getting weaker and weaker, he was suspicious and put it down.

Then I saw it stick out its tongue and lick its hind legs back.

Only then did she see it clearly.

It turned out that it was injured on its hind legs, and its hair was covered up, so it didn't see it clearly.

At this moment, when he licked it, blood stains and a small wound were revealed.

Ni Chuhe was shocked, and hurriedly called someone to come in, and asked people to bring white cloth and medicine.

Carefully smeared its wounds with medicine and wrapped them with a white cloth, Nichuhe looked at its pitiful appearance, and no matter how angry he was, he had to put it down for the time being.

"How did you say you got it? It can't be hurt by those people, right? ”

At that time, she only saw Wu Yuechen running away, and did not see whether it was injured or not.

She subconsciously thought it wouldn't hurt, so she didn't think much of it.

Unexpectedly, it was still injured.

The black cat stuck out her tongue and licked the back of her hand, meowing as if to please her.

Nichuhe snorted coldly, "Don't think I'll forgive you like this. ”

If you want to use bitter meat tricks, no way.

The black cat moved and limped to her lap and lay down, closing its eyes and flicking its tail several times onto the back of her hand.

Nichuhe looked at it quizzically.

I haven't heard a word from it ever since.

If you're injured, you can't even speak, right?

Besides, it was only a minor injury.

Suddenly, she had an idea.

Could it be ...... Is this its doppelganger? Wu Yuechen hasn't come back yet?

Maybe its doppelganger can't talk to her.

Because Wu Yuechen was injured, so its clone was also injured?

The more you think about it, the more likely it is.

Ni Chuhe suddenly didn't know what it was like in his heart.

She stroked the back of the black cat, which was still sleeping soundly, only its ears and tail moved from time to time.

Nichuhe inexplicably thinks it's still like this, it's cute.

sighed, thinking, that's fine, Wu Yuechen is gone, if this little thing is left, it will be a comfort.

Ni Chuhe called Mama Qi.

Because Sui'er's surname is Qi, she is called Mama Qi, and she is a first-class confidant around Ni Chuhe, in addition to taking care of her inner hall, she is taking care of her two children.

Nichuhe asked her about the past few months and what had happened in the palace.

Mama Qi said: "Yuan promised to give birth to a little princess at the beginning of this month. ”

Princess?

Nichuhe couldn't help but laugh.

Niu Hulu's family was looking forward to having a brother, but he didn't expect to spend so much thought, but this Yuan promised to be so uncompromising, and only gave birth to a princess, and now Niu Hulu's family is afraid that he will be angry.

"What else?" Ni Chuhe no longer cared about this, Yuan agreed, and asked again.

Mama Qi said again: "The sixth princess is okay, the eighth elder brother fell ill last month, but fortunately, there is no danger." ”

Ni Chuhe's brows condensed slightly, "But what's abnormal?" ”

Don't blame her for thinking wildly, although children often get sick, but the prince is sick, which will always make people feel more worried.

Mama Qi shook her head, "It's nothing abnormal, but the Queen Mother was very concerned about the Eighth Elder Brother in the past few days, and she had to ask about the Eighth Elder Brother several times every day, and she was very anxious." ”

Ni Chuhe nodded, after all, he is his own grandson, and the Queen Mother always has to care about it.

"One more thing." Mama Qi's face became serious, "A while ago, the fifth elder brother contracted smallpox and was sent outside the palace, and now he is out of danger, but he has not recovered yet. At that time, the people who served the fifth elder brother, several eunuchs and palace maids were also infected with smallpox, and they were all gone. ”

Smallpox?

Nichuhe was shocked.

This smallpox was very common in the Qing Dynasty, and very few people could hide from it, and it is said that Shunzhi died of smallpox.

The first emperor also contracted smallpox when he was young, but fortunately survived in the end.

But countless people died of smallpox.

Therefore, the ancients used to smell smallpox and change color.

Although it is normal to be infected with smallpox, but if the fifth elder brother is infected alone, it has to make people think more.

The fifth elder brother was raised by the queen and is a son-in-law, so it is not strange if someone targets him.

But that's just her guess.

After all, the fifth elder brother is still young, but there are three older princes, and it is obviously unwise to target the fifth elder brother at this time.

She is glad that her Hongfang and Kyaukjiao are fine.

Before in the south, she hadn't heard about it, thinking that the palace didn't send someone to tell Yongzheng.

Maybe Yongzheng knew, but he didn't tell her.

However, since the fifth elder brother has escaped, it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

The reason why the first emperor was able to ascend the throne was because he had smallpox and would not die of smallpox.

Now the fifth elder brother also has smallpox, and he is the only one among the princes who has had smallpox, which is also an additional advantage.

Ni Chuhe didn't ask anymore and told Mama Qi to retreat.

The black cat woke up and was looking at her with a pair of amber eyes, looking very well-behaved.

Nichuhe rubbed its head and smiled, "It's been hard for you these days. ”

The black cat whined, her head raised, and she enjoyed being petted by her.

Ni Chuhe rubbed its soft ears again, and sighed, "Hello, don't learn from your master, you know?" ”

The black cat looked at her innocently, as if puzzled.

"He's just too bad, always causing trouble, and indirectly harming Zhuyan, do you think he should be beaten? It's a pity that he ran away. Nichuhe scratched its chin, "Isn't it hateful to run away if you do something bad?" If it comes back one day, I will not spare it. ”

He says so with his mouth, but what about his heart?

I still hope it's good, even if it runs, it doesn't matter, run far away, and don't come back.

It is a cat spirit, not a domestic cat, it should be free and free, not bound by people, this is not suitable for it, and it should go back to the place where it should go.

But occasionally I will still be disappointed in my heart, complaining that it ran away like this, has no conscience, has no responsibility, and does not dare to come back and admit its mistakes.
