Awei's eyes immediately turned red in an instant, she took a step forward, the first time she stood directly by Chi Chi's side, not half a step behind, her tone was firm, and she reached out to hold Chi Chi's hand, which was a rare manifestation of her informality.

Ah Wei is a palace maid who grew up in the palace, and she is more familiar with many etiquettes than she knows how to eat, so it is the first time she has done such a thing, not to mention that it is late, even she herself is a little surprised.

But now is no longer the time to be surprised, I heard Ah Wei take a deep breath, and then said, "It doesn't matter what His Highness's decision is, and it doesn't matter whether His Highness is going to Beiyin, if he goes to Beiyin, whether he will suffer or be dangerous. Slaves and maids are always willing to follow His Highness. ”

She gasped, and then said, "Since the slave maid entered the palace, she has served flowers and trees, and has also served people, but there is no other master who is as good as His Royal Highness, and His Royal Highness gave the slave and maid a second life. ”

The righteousness she said was awe-inspiring, of course, Chi Chi also knew that what she said was true, not to fool her.

couldn't help but smile, "You mean you're willing to die for me?" ”

Awei really nodded decisively, "If His Highness needs it." ”

Chi Chi smiled and smiled, "Don't have such thoughts, you are not allowed to have them from now on, do you hear?" ”

Awe didn't know what kind of expression he was going to put on for a moment.

In such a place, in fact, it is clear that in ancient times, in this kind of place, it has always been the king who wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die.

And the best way for a servant or courtier to show his loyalty is to be willing to give his life.

But I didn't expect that Chi Chi directly refused this dedication.

Chi Chi said, "I kept you by my side because I felt that you were no longer suitable for staying in a place like the Imperial Garden at that time, so I brought you to my side, and then I kept you all the time, also because I thought you were very good, but not because I wanted you to pay anything for me, what to dedicate, these are not needed, if you can, of course I hope you can protect yourself as much as possible." ”

Chi let go of her hand, and then said lightly, "If I really want to go to Beiyin, then this is my life, not yours, you have no way to do anything for me, when the time comes, I will intercede with Your Majesty, let you all go out of the palace, rest assured, whether it is gold, silver, wealth or others, I will be ready for you, you serve me, it can be regarded as being with me for so long, in the end, it can be regarded as a little return." ”

Ah Wei said that tears were about to fall, "Slaves and maids serve His Highness, where will I think about what to ask for in return, I never thought that being able to serve His Highness is originally a blessing, Your Highness ......" She immediately knelt down, "No matter where Your Highness goes, the slaves and maids will definitely follow, please, please also ask Your Highness, thousands of people don't leave their slaves and maids, don't don't want slaves." ”

Silence for a long time.

She didn't have the courage to take responsibility for someone else's life.

In fact, she is quite confused now, whether she will go to Beiyin in the end, and I don't know what her future will be if she really goes to Beiyin.

Awei was about to speak, but he suddenly said, "You go back first." ”

Well? What the?

Awei was stunned for a moment, and then saw a person standing under a tree not far away.

The man was wearing the dark pattern brocade robe of Dongchang, and the jade tree stood there like the wind, and those who didn't know probably thought it was the prince and grandson, but no one could easily imagine that it was a person from Dongchang.

It's Cao Tingyu.

Awei lowered her head, "Yes, the slave knows." ”

She avoided Cao Tingyu's side and chose another path to go.

In fact, the matter between His Highness and the person in charge of punishment...... How to put it, although they are somewhat aware.

At the beginning, I would feel that in the end, it was the eunuch of Dongchang, even if he was in a high position, if he coveted His Royal Highness in his heart, he would be a dead man, and he should be dragged out and killed immediately.

In comparison, there is still a big gap between master and servant, not to mention that this is still a eunuch.

However, as time passed, everyone could see clearly what this person had done for their highness.

It can be said that His Royal Highness can come to this point today, the credit of this punishment is really obvious to all, he seems to be good to His Highness without asking for anything in return, and they are from the beginning of the rejection to the present - a little acceptable.

To put it simply, His Highness has been wrapped in such a hard and difficult life for more than ten years before, if you can meet such a person by Your Highness's side, maybe for Your Highness, for Your Highness, in this deep palace, it is almost only hard and lonely for Your Highness, it is also a good thing.

However, they have already seen the dawn of hope, and it seems that the future is moving in the direction of their hopes, but, but why is it that it has come to this point now.

As Awei walked, tears fell from her eyes, if she had a choice, she was really willing to suffer everything that would happen next for His Highness, as long as His Highness didn't have to suffer anymore, the suffering of His Highness in the past was really enough.

Chi Chi walked to Cao Tingyu's side, she was actually in a very complicated mood, and when she came out of the imperial study, she wanted to laugh, she felt that this matter was very ridiculous, Beiyin actually wanted her, which was a point that Chi Chi didn't expect at all whether she was dreaming or in real life.

But now that she saw Cao Tingyu, her mood suddenly calmed down, and there were not so many other emotions, as if this Beiyin or something like that was just a dream.

She stopped her steps, stood in front of Cao Tingyu, and she spoke, "Beiyin is busy, do you still have the kung fu to be lazy here?" ”

Cao Tingyue didn't speak, just lowered his head and looked at her quietly.

She also smiled a little, it seemed that Beiyin or Liu Chuchen's matter didn't affect her at all.

She added, "Is it okay here? Ji Jia will definitely be looking for you in a while. ”

She didn't take such a thing or her own business to heart, and Cao Ting felt more and more like a knife.

He almost suppressed a deep breath, "I'll take you away." ”

He blinked, then looked up at him.

Cao Tingyue said, "You believe me, I can take you away, the sky is high and the earth is far away, as long as we leave the capital, we can go anywhere." From now on, no one will be able to find us, I will take Concubine Jing with me, the cold palace has already been cleaned up by me, and no one will know about it at that time, even if we do, it doesn't matter, as long as we go far, no one may be able to catch up with us. ”

He spoke quickly, as if he had already known these words by heart, or as if he had already prepared to say them.

"I won't ask you to live a hard life, gold, silver and jewelry or something, we can't use it for a few lifetimes, if you like landscapes, we will find a good landscape to build a bigger house, if you like the excitement we will hide in the city, we will only be together from now on, we will only be together ......"

"What about you?" Interrupt him for a long time.

"What?" Cao Tingyue didn't understand.

Chi Chi said, "What about your ambitions?" I know that you have what you want, you have been in the East Factory for so many years, it is always impossible to say that you are just willing to be just a minion, I know that you have more ambitious ambitions, although the current Chen Guo is no longer than back then, but you and I both know that sooner or later, this Beiyin will take away, Chen Guo will take it out, and when the time comes, the governor of the East Factory, maybe it will be even more powerful now. ”

Cao Tingyue shook his head, "What you said may have been at the beginning, or at the beginning, it would indeed shake me, but it is not now." He looked at her earnestly, his eyes seemed to be burning, "I know what is most important to me right now." ”

After looking at him for a while, she lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

Cao Tingyue said, "You don't have to worry, there is still time to think about it now." Because even if the emperor decides to send you to Beiyin, he will definitely still have to negotiate peace, and peace talks have always been a tug-of-war. Especially if you want to give a princess such a loss of power and humiliation to the country, even if you want to pretend, you must pretend to be reluctant. ”

Cao Tingyu's words were a little mocking, but in fact, he had been holding back his anger.

Ever since he knew the conditions of the Beiyin peace talks, he was very angry, whether it was facing Liu Chuchen, the shameless and thoughtful Liu Chuchen, who didn't know what he was thinking at all.

is still cowardly, and it seems that he has been waiting for the emperor of Beiyin conditions.

It doesn't matter which of the two.

Cao Tingyue was eager to kill them as soon as possible.

But he can't do anything now, which makes him hate himself even more.

Looking at Chi Chi now, he is even more distressed and doesn't know what to do.

But he had an answer in his own mind, and that was – no matter what, no matter what.

It is absolutely impossible for him to let go to Beiyin for a long time, even if he is robbed halfway.

His tone was firm, "Don't worry, I will protect you, no matter who it is, I will not let him bully you." ”

The mountains and rivers are clear, and the moon and stars are scarce.

From time to time, the hot summer wind blows.

Both of them are like ice muscles and jade bones, and they don't sweat a drop.

Under this dense tree, the two men stood staring at each other.

Needless to say, everything in the past and everything in the future is blown away in this hot summer breeze.

Needless to say, Chi Chi smiled softly.
