Dong Xi's first night in the palace was calm, Jiang Qiancheng didn't even know where he slept, anyway, he didn't hear about thieves or assassins in the palace all night, he was still wondering, did Dong Xi tease himself, he actually took what he said casually seriously?

But the next morning, Dong Xi appeared in the imperial study and took the breakfast originally prepared for Jiang Qiancheng away.

Jiang Qiancheng looked helplessly at Dong Xi, who casually came and went in and out of this palace as if it was his home, and wanted to scold him, but he really couldn't beat him, and he was still a person from Yue Qingming's side, so he couldn't move him casually, so he could only watch him come and go freely in the palace.

Shan Wu was also surprised when he saw Dong Xi in the imperial study, and he asked Jiang Qiancheng: "Your Majesty, have you asked Dong Xi to help you with errands again?" ”

Jiang Qiancheng supported his forehead: "Where is there anything that needs his help now?" I don't know why he came here, I feel like I'm running around in a panic. ”

“……”

The corners of Shan Wu's mouth twitched, this description, if Dong Xi heard it, he would probably be angry.

When the Queen Mother came to see Jiang Qiancheng in the imperial study, Jiang Qiancheng was talking to Shanwu about Dong Xi, and she just arrived at the door and happened to hear it.

She couldn't help but speak: "You say, Dong Xi is in the palace now?" ”

Jiang Qiancheng and Shan Wu looked in the direction of the Empress Dowager at the same time, and then nodded at the same time.

The Queen Mother helplessly held her forehead, and she said that Yue Qingming couldn't find any trace of Dong Xi everywhere in the imperial city, it turned out that he was hiding in the palace! She slapped her forehead, she should have thought of it a long time ago, with his skills, there must be no problem in entering and leaving the palace freely, not to mention that he also knew Jiang Qiancheng!

Seeing that the Empress Dowager seemed to be a little worried about Dong Xi's affairs, Jiang Qiancheng asked her: "Empress Dowager, what's wrong with you?" Did Dong Xi do something bad, so he found a way to hide in the palace? ”

The Queen Mother shook her head: "Where did he do something bad, he just wanted to avoid us." ”

"You...... Guys? ”

"Bengong, and Yue Tianfu, is Qingming's father."

Jiang Qiancheng was very puzzled: "I remember that you seem to have known each other for the past, and it should be a good thing to be able to get together to meet, why is he still avoiding you?" ”

"That was twenty years ago, it was his heart knot, he has always been reluctant to meet us, before for the sake of Qingming, he went to see Yue Tianfu, but he has been in the imperial city for so long, but he has never seen this palace in the future. Alas! ”

“……”

Jiang Qiancheng was a little confused, what happened twenty years ago, it was definitely not something he should be able to manage, or he didn't know what to do, in case Dong Xi asked, it was himself who was unlucky.

"By the way, Your Majesty, if Dong Xi comes to you again, remember to tell him that Qingming is waiting for him to go back in Mingyue Tower, even if he doesn't want to see us, Qingming still has to see us."

"Got it, I'll help tell you."

That night, Dong Xi came again, also sitting in the same position before, he took the books taken down from Jiang Qiancheng's bookshelf and looked at them, Jiang Qiancheng also naturally passed by him when he came in, as if he was used to him suddenly running in.

Sitting at the desk, as soon as Jiang Qiancheng opened the fold, Dong Xi spoke: "The queen mother has looked for you, right?" ”

Jiang Qiancheng was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Since you know that she has been here, you must also know why she came, you have been out for several days, shouldn't you also go back to Mingyue Tower to see Yue Qingming and them?" ”

"I've seen them, but they haven't seen me."

"......" Jiang Qiancheng raised his forehead: "Yue Qingming must be waiting for you to go back in Mingyue Tower, you don't have anything to do here anyway, isn't it good to go back to Mingyue Tower and stay comfortably?" ”

"I don't have this plan for the time being, and besides, I haven't been staying in Mingyue Tower all the time, she has long been used to it."

“……”

Jiang Qiancheng suddenly didn't know how to refute Dong Xi, it seemed that he came prepared.

Dong Xi said: "When I want to go back, I will go back, I have never liked to be forced to do things, so I don't go back." ”

"Alas!" Jiang Qiancheng Chang sighed: "Okay, then you can stay here, anyway, the palace is so big, it doesn't matter where you want to live, don't hurt the people in the palace." ”

Dong Xi nodded, put down the book in his hand, and when Jiang Qiancheng looked at the fold and raised his head again, he was already gone.

Jiang Qiancheng raised his forehead and shook his head helplessly: "It's really gone without a trace!" ”

At this time, Princess Qingjia lived in the small courtyard.

"Ahem, ahem—"

Princess Qingjia lay on the bed, covering her mouth and coughing violently, she wanted to suppress the blood surging in her body, but she still couldn't hold back, and vomited blood again.

The maid was taking care of her by the side, but now such a situation was something they didn't expect, obviously they had already given her medicine every morning, noon and evening according to the doctor's wishes, why did it seem useless?

The maid held Princess Qingjia's arm and gently patted her back: "Princess Qingjia, are you okay?" ”

Princess Qingjia has no way to answer the maid's words now, and looking at her now, it seems to be okay?

"Ahem, cough, cough, cough—"

The maid frowned tightly, and said to the other maid: "No, if you continue to vomit blood like this, Princess Qingjia's body will be unable to hold it sooner or later, you go and ask Lord Shanwu, can't you let her die like this!" ”

"Good!"

After the maid hurriedly ran out, the remaining maid helped Princess Qingjia to calm her breath, and fed her the pills left by the doctor to suppress the breath, but the effect was not very obvious, she still coughed, as if she wanted to cough out her lungs.

The maid was anxious, anxious and a little at a loss, when Lord Yamamu handed over Princess Qingjia to them to take care of, he didn't say that she still had this problem, why didn't she get better after taking medicine?!

"Princess Qingjia, you take a few deep breaths, calm down your breathing, and try not to cough, otherwise you will vomit blood again!"

Princess Qingjia covered her mouth, listened to the maid's words, tried her best to control her breathing, and forcibly suppressed the urge to cough.

She gasped for breath, coughing so hard that tears came out, she covered her mouth, her chest heaving, and it was the second time since she came here that she felt so close to death.

She raised her hand to wipe the blood from the corners of her mouth, wiped away her tears, and asked the maid, "In my current situation, am I going to die soon?" ”
