Chapter 454: Protect her with all your might
After a few days, the ribbons flew in the capital.
The inns on the streets were already full, and the windows facing the street were opening day by day, giving a clear view of the street.
Happy children run through the streets, shouting their anticipation and imagination for the Shikoku Festival.
The vendors who set up their stalls were also smiling, and their business was much better thanks to the blessings of the Shikoku Celebration, and local specialties were bought by those from other countries who came to participate in the celebrations, even if they shouted a higher price.
In order to welcome the envoys of other countries and show the financial resources of their own countries, the Ministry of Rites received an edict from the emperor that whenever there was an embassy staying in the hotel, a salute whip would be released to show respect for the distinguished guests.
Yan Tingcheng sat in the room, listening to the noise outside, slowly combing his hair.
The large-scale deployment arrangements she had made before should be in place, as long as there were no other accidents at the celebration, the chance of getting the Ice Spirit Grass was more than fifty percent.
Even if he is injured or caught, someone will dock with him and return to the palace with the Ice Spirit Grass.
If he can't come back, the master will help him save Qin Xiaomo......
The arrangement of one thing after another was quickly sorted out in her mind, Yan Qingcheng calculated whether there would be mistakes and omissions, and the places that were ignored were related to Qin Xiaomo's life, and she had to try her best to make the most perfect arrangement.
Xunyin stood aside and looked at Yan Qingcheng, who was frowning, and was worried in his heart.
This morning, a holy decree came from the palace, and the Qin King and his wife participated in the celebration of the Four Kingdoms, and they also had to do the heavenly sacrifice activities of Nalaoshzi.
The prince is not in good health now, and the master directly withheld the holy decree and did not let the subordinates inform the prince, but he was preparing to attend the celebration alone.
However, the celebration of the Four Kingdoms is not the same as other activities, if the master shows up alone, he will definitely ask those old ministers to gossip, provoke her not to abide by the principles of three obedience and four virtues, and even worse, some old scholars may have to go to the emperor's visit to the master and say bad things about the master.
Coupled with the fact that the master has to do something at the celebration, the risk of attending alone is a little too great.
There was a sudden soft knock at the door, and Xun Yin glanced at Yan Chengcheng, who was not disturbed, and went out quietly.
The person who came was Yu'er, and the little girl's face was full of confusion.
"What's wrong?" Xunyin took her away a little, so as not to let the conversation between the two disturb the master.
"This morning's holy decree was discovered by the prince!" Yu'er said quickly: "Now the prince is clamoring to get up and try on the dress, saying that he wants to accompany the master to participate in the celebration." ”
"What!" Xunyin was startled, and the uncontrolled voice suddenly became louder, which startled Yu'er.
A few days ago, the prince vomited blood and fell into a coma, and the master took a lot of effort to wake him up, and clearly ordered the people in the palace not to disturb the prince with trivial matters, how could he make him discover the holy decree?
"Didn't you receive the holy decree this morning, and didn't hide it properly?"
Xunyin's serious eyes fell on Yu'er, making the little girl's eyes red instantly: "I also wonder why the hidden holy decree will come into the hands of the prince, if the master knows, she will definitely scold me." ”
Stamping his feet anxiously, Xunyin carefully asked where Yu'er hid things, and made sure that no one followed, so why did the prince ask the prince to take the things?
"But, Sister Xunyin, should we tell the master that the prince is going with her?" Yu'er glanced at the closed door.
But he didn't think that in the next second, the closed door opened, and Yan Qingcheng stood at the door with a calm face.
"Master!" Yu'er was taken aback and reflexively screamed.
Xunyin also turned around, noticed Yan Chengcheng's appearance, and hurriedly saluted.
didn't dare to talk much, only said that the prince was going to participate in the celebration together.
Yan Qingcheng nodded slightly, and took them to find Qin Xiaomo.
She actually noticed it when Yu'er knocked on the door, but now there is nothing in the house that will make Yu'er knock on the door so carefully, so she listened to the whole process quietly.
The holy decree was indeed handed over to Yu'er to let her keep it so that no one else would find out, this girl has always listened to her own words, and naturally she will not do anything that violates the yin and yang.
If this is the case, the holy decree will still appear in Qin Xiaomo's hands, which can only prove that he has let the secret guard who is loyal to him follow him.
doesn't care about his life or death, only protects her with all his might.
That's probably the order he gave to the guard.
After a while, Yan Qingcheng saw Qin Xiaomo who was supporting his body and was helped by the pupil to change clothes.
His black hair was uncombed, sliding down on his shoulders, his pale face was slightly bloody, and the cold sweat on his forehead betrayed him.
Seeing Yan Qingcheng, who unconsciously pursed the corners of his mouth, Qin Xiaomo showed a light smile and stretched out his hand towards her.
"Allure."
The complicated thoughts in Yan Qingcheng's heart dispersed the moment he heard these two words.
Quickly stepped forward and interlocked his fingers, taking the place of the pupil.
"You don't have to force yourself like this, I'll be alone in the celebration, and nothing will happen."
While saying words of consolation, Yan Tingcheng's movements in dressing him slowed down a little.
Although his physical condition was checked every day, every time he touched this thin and cold skin, it would make Yan Tingcheng feel a pain in his heart.
"No, the emperor has already ordered you and me to go together, if you appear alone, those old guys will give you a name for disobeying the order, how can I protect you."
Qin Xiaomo lowered his head slightly, and could see the top of Yan Chengcheng's head, the ribbons of the dress on his body were tied one by one, Qin Xiaomo retracted his hand and caged Yan Chengcheng in his arms.
Seeing this, everyone in the room consciously left, leaving a space for the two of them.
Yan Qingcheng hugged Qin Xiaomo's waist and buried his face in his chest as if he was angry.
The luxurious dress showed signs of wrinkles, but no one cared at the moment.
They all want time to stay in this moment, the earth is desolate.
"Tomorrow is the sacrifice to the sky, if you can't hold it, tell me, and I'll bring you back."
Yan Chengcheng finally compromised, she knew that even if she didn't let him go and left him in the mansion, he would definitely sneak away to support herself.
In this way, it is better for the two of them to go together, and they can still take care of him.
Qin Xiaomo, who had long known that Yan Chengcheng would answer like this, smiled dotingly, and touched Yan Tingcheng's head, telling her to feel at ease.
After being silent for a while, Yan Chengcheng sat down on the bed with Qin Xiaomo and helped him knead the acupuncture points to relieve the discomfort.
Qin Xiaomo looked at his serious expression, and felt slightly sad in his heart.
Although he was told to lie down and rest all day long, he would not fall behind what he should know.
There are some secret guards around him, who are only loyal to their own dead soldiers, and they will definitely not listen to Yan Qingcheng's orders and hide everything from themselves.
How could he not know Yan Chengcheng's plan to snatch the Ice Spirit Grass at the celebration without talking about it.
