Bai Ling stood up with the wooden railing at the head of the bed.

"Would you like to go to the yard now?" Bai Yi asked, "It's a little sunny outside." ”

"It's been a long time since I've been in the sun......," Bai Ling whispered, "Let's get a sun." ”

Bai Ling's expression looked a little dazed and a little gloomy, her eyes were out of focus looking ahead, her cheeks were pale and slightly sunken, and her eyes looked bigger because of it.

She walked slowly with every step, and the two feet under her skirt could not be lifted up as if they were filled with lead, so she could only barely walk out, Bai Yi followed behind, always on guard against her falling.

Summer is really coming.

Bai Ling stood under the sun, and the sun was shining on his face, which was hot and painful.

"Someone seems to have been here yesterday." Bai Ling looked at the door and said suddenly.

"Maybe it's just the night patrol in the hospital," Bai Yi replied, remembering the sound he had heard himself last night, "if anyone really comes, they will tell me." ”

“…… But I seem to hear the voice of the son. Bai Ling whispered, and after a while, she changed her words softly, "Prince." ”

Bai Yi was a little surprised, and he walked down the stairs to confirm with the apprentices who had kept vigil last night.

At first, everyone said that they didn't know, until Bai Yi directly said the identity of the "prince", and several people said that His Royal Highness the prince did come late last night, but because it was too late, he walked around the door, asked about the situation in person and left.

Before leaving, he even told his apprentice not to tell him about it, he would come again.

Moreover, according to the apprentices, this was not the first time the prince had come, but he had no time during the day, and when he did, it was always late at night, so he had not come in several times before.

Bai Yi was a little surprised—he had heard the sound himself, but he didn't pay much attention to it at all, let alone hear that Chen Yicong was in the noise of the voice.

Bai Ling listened to Bai Yi relay this, and just nodded.

Although she hadn't seen the current court weather with her own eyes, she could imagine the situation outside.

She could feel the heartfelt joy and encouragement of Zheng Mi when talking about state affairs, this dynasty that had aged and fainted with Emperor Jianxi, after the new emperor ascended the throne, suddenly radiated new vitality.

There are so many things waiting in front of them that staying and reviewing have become a luxury.

"Where did this purse come from?" Bai Yi pointed to the dark green purse that Bai Ling tied to his wrist, "I don't think I've seen you wear it before?" ”

Bai Ling raised his hand, and the purse fell into the air and swirled gently, "...... Is it good-looking? ”

"It's pretty good."

Bai Ling slowly withdrew her hand and held the purse in her hand again, she did not answer Bai Yi's question, but fell into the previous silence again.

Bai Yi obviously felt that the air pressure near Bai Ling was a little lower.

The dark green purse was tucked into her sleeve, and she looked down at her toes, her throat moving several times, but she didn't make any sound.

So Bai Yi somewhat understood, and he seemed to have asked a question that should not be asked......

"Do you want to go outside again?"

Bai Ling shook his head.

As she spoke, she walked back into the house with the same slower steps as before—only then did she realize that there was a very distinct smell of blood and alcohol in the room, and that she had been lying in the room before, so she was unaware.

"Master Bai!" An apprentice rushed in at this time, "The queen mother is here, saying that she is coming to visit you. ”

As he spoke, he ran to Bai Yi, "People just passed the north gate, and Master Zheng met and was talking here, it is estimated that they will come to us in a while." ”

Bai Yi replied softly, "oh", and he turned to look at Bai Ling, who had already gone back to the house and was lying flat on the bed again.

……

After Zhen was in the yard, the first thing he did was to go through a set of disinfection processes.

The apprentices were a little trembling and said the details of each request, among the officials they had met before, the biggest was a magistrate like Jing Zhaoyin, a serious prince of eight hundred, and only Zeng Jiuyan, who was about the same age as Bai Yi.

Now that the queen has come here, if she also puts on a stand like Zheng Mi yesterday, the apprentices probably won't have the courage to stop it anymore.

But fortunately, Zhen didn't mean to embarrass them at all, and he carefully followed the steps of the instructions to complete the process.

When he came to the ward, Bai Yi was already waiting outside.

Zhen looked at Bai Ling lying in the room, asked her about her current situation, and heard Bai Yi say that she was fine, but after recuperating from her recent injury and drowsiness, Zhen nodded gently, and then stepped into the room.

"Mother," Bai Yi tried to stop, "my sister hasn't woken up yet...... Can you ......?"

"There may be something more important than the rest of the moment," Zhen replied, "or let Bai Siyao judge for himself?" ”

Bai Yi is not good at stopping it again.

Despite saying this, Zhen stopped moving forward.

"I came today to take you into the palace." She said softly to Bai Ling on the bed, "This palace went to visit Huang Gonggong yesterday and promised him to take you into the palace, he wants to see you." ”

Bai Ling, who pretended to be asleep, really opened his eyes.

"Of course, it's okay to continue to rest," Zhen said softly, "but Grandpa Huang is old, and the situation has not been good since he came out of prison...... It's hard to say how much time you can wait. ”

Bai Ling frowned, covering his eyes with one hand.

……

After a while, Bai Ling was already sitting in Zhen's carriage, and although she had changed into the new clothes that Zhen had brought her, she still looked very haggard.

Zhen didn't ask anything, just reached out and gently hugged Bai Ling, and whispered a few words of sincere comfort, just like that night in the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Bai Ling was a little surprised, she didn't know how to respond to Zhen's concern for a while, and after a long time, she slowly leaned a few inches towards Zhen's shoulder, and her movements were stiff.

This made Zhen couldn't help but sigh.

After entering the palace, their means of transportation changed from horse-drawn carriages to sedan chairs.

Bai Ling followed behind Zhen in silence, and from time to time a eunuch hurried over and whispered to Zhen, and she always gave some brief response after a moment of thought.

She looked at the queen not far away, and felt that this kind of gentleness and determination seemed to be a little familiar.

Thinking of Zheng Mi's previous mention that Emperor Qitai has not appeared much since he ascended the throne - then many of the burdens in the palace probably fell on the shoulders of the queen in front of him.

Zhen looked haggard and tired similar to himself, but his eyes always had a firmness that was rarely seen here.

Chen Yicong rarely mentioned his mother, but only in this moment of getting along, Bai Ling somewhat understood where the young man's reckless courage came from.

The sedan chair turned through the deep palace road, and finally stopped in front of a small courtyard, where Yuan Zhen was already waiting.

From Yuan Zhen's expression, Bai Ling immediately understood one thing.

Today, she came here to see Huang Chongde for the last time.
