Chapter Eighty-Nine: When the Old Man Is Reunited
"He just hasn't let you go yet, don't mess with yourself!" Shen Nanfeng stared at the book in his hand, and he didn't believe what Zhao Qingran said, not that he didn't believe Zhao Qingran, but felt that Shen Huang just couldn't let go of it, so he said nonsense.
"No, you have to believe me, they really have something, you have to pay attention to safety, don't underestimate them too much." Seeing that Shen Nanfeng didn't believe in herself, although Zhao Qingran was very sad, she was more worried, she was afraid that something would happen to Shen Nanfeng.
Shen Nanfeng closed his eyes and thought for a while, put down the book in his hand, and looked at Zhao Qingran, who was full of worry in front of him.
He sighed faintly, slowly got up from the stool, came to her, put his hand on her shoulder, and said: "Qingran, you are too easy to trust others, if they really have any plans, it is impossible for this king not to know, you have a good rest, and when this king is busy for the past few days, I will take you out for a walk." ”
Knowing that she was good to herself, Shen Nanfeng didn't say anything, she was absent-minded every day in the past few days, ignoring her, and it was normal for her to be in such a situation, so she felt a little guilty about Zhao Qingran.
Zhao Qingran breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Shen Nanfeng's words, as long as he was fine, it might be that his nerves were too tense.
"You have a good rest, I'm fine, I'll go back to my room first." Zhao Qingran had a smile on his face, held Shen Nanfeng's hand on his shoulder, and looked at him with admiration in his eyes.
Pulling his hand out of her hand, Shen Nanfeng returned to his position, hummed softly, didn't say anything else, looked at the book seriously, but his heart was still the shadow of Yu Xizhou.
Looking at his hand that stayed in the air, Zhao Qingran sneered self-deprecatingly, looked at Shen Nanfeng who looked serious on the other side a little lonely, slowly left the study, and returned to his room in despair.
Suddenly, there was a border war, which caught Shen Nanfeng and the emperor off guard, and hurriedly sent people to calm down, and the manpower in Kyoto suddenly became much less.
The people sent to pacify disappeared one by one, Shen Nanfeng asked Chaoxi to personally lead the troops, and came back directly from being wounded, and returned to the Qinwang Mansion in a dying state, seeing Shen Nanfeng who was still waiting in the study, he couldn't hold on to the coma.
"Lord Wang, there were many assassinations on the way to quell it, they were just obstructing, there was no killing intent, and when the team was about to arrive, the team was suddenly besieged, and the soldiers desperately sent Chaoxi out, and the whole army was annihilated......"
Chaoxi woke up, saw Shen Nanfeng in front of him, with tears on his face, his eyes were full of remorse and helplessness, thinking of the scene at that time, several of his brothers died tragically in front of him, Chaoxi was outnumbered, he couldn't save them, and he also let them carry a few knives for himself, so that he had the life to come back and report the news,
Telling the emperor what Chaoxi said, Shen Nanfeng frowned, and also felt that things were too strange, and suddenly thought of what Zhao Qingran had told him, but it was too late.
The situation between the DPRK and China is becoming more and more tense, Shen Yunchen is looking at Kyoto with fierce eyes, and some of the ministers of the DPRK and China have defected, and the situation is very critical.
Although the emperor knew the situation in the court, he could only dare to be angry and dare not speak, so he could only be anxious in Kyoto. And the burden of all this seemed to be pressed on Shen Nanfeng's body in an instant.
The lights in the study were on all night, and the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were rotated several times.
Yun Xi saw Shen Nanfeng's sad appearance, and her heart was also very sad. Now that he is working hard for the affairs of the court every day, he has not eaten seriously at all, and he is afraid that his body will collapse, Yunxi decided to go to the south to find Yu Xizhou back and tell her the truth of the matter.
"Yunxi? What are you doing here? Xiao You saw a familiar figure outside the door, and hurriedly walked out to greet him.
Without bothering Xiao You, Yun Xi anxiously inquired about Yu Xizhou's whereabouts, Xiao You told her that she was busy in the kitchen, and then took her to the kitchen to find Yu Xizhou.
"You talk first, I'll go out and greet the guests." Xiao You poured water for the two of them, sent some desserts, and looked at Yun Xi's anxious look, presumably he had something to tell Yu Xizhou, and he didn't bother, he helped them close the door and waited outside.
Seeing Yunxi coming, Yu Xizhou was actually very happy, seeing her face full of worry and anxiety, but she had some bad premonitions in her heart.
Looking at the familiar figure and familiar face, finally seeing Yu Xizhou, Yun Xi was very excited.
As soon as Xiao You left, she knelt on the ground.
Tears finally couldn't hold back the tears, but he still just looked at Yu Xizhou and didn't speak.
Yu Xizhou panicked all of a sudden, and quickly stood up and helped her up from the ground, but she didn't seem to have the slightest intention of getting up, Yu Xizhou squatted directly on the ground and looked at her at eye level, frowned, and asked puzzledly: "Yunxi, what's wrong with you?" Hurry up, we have something to say and sit down. ”
Yun Xi pushed Yu Xizhou, kowtowed heavily, didn't raise his head, and pleaded: "Please ask the princess to return to the palace with Yun Xi!" ”
Hearing Yun Xi's words, Yu Xizhou stood up, turned his back to her, and said with a cold face: "Yun Xi, if you are coming to see me, then I am very happy and welcome you to come, if you are to intercede for Shen Nanfeng and let me go back, then there is no need, I Yu Xizhou is not short of this man." ”
Yu Xizhou's cold words seemed to knock Yun Xi into the ice cellar in an instant, and Yun Xi's tears slipped down again.
Xiao You heard the sound of a quarrel outside the door and pushed the door in, and saw Yun Xi kneeling on the ground with tears on his face, and Yu Xizhou, who had his back to him but exuded cold air all over his body, and was a little puzzled.
Without caring about the people next to her, Yunxi knelt on the ground, slowly walked towards Yu Xizhou, hugged her feet, the tears on her face couldn't stop flowing down completely, and her voice was a little choked and said: "Princess Shi, you misunderstood the prince, he was forced to marry Zhao Qingran, Zhao Qingran said that as long as the prince married her, he would help the prince rescue the princess." ”
Yu Xizhou's head suddenly exploded, and all thoughts began to revolve around Shen Nanfeng.
Could it be that he misunderstood Shen Nanfeng? But no matter what, he betrayed himself, even if it was to save himself, he shouldn't marry someone else.
Feeling the stiffness of Yu Xizhou's body, Yun Xi knew that she had understood Shen Nanfeng's hard work.
She thought about Shen Nanfeng's poor behavior, and continued to muster up the courage to say: "If you don't keep it, it's because you're afraid of the princess!" Hurt again, do you know the princess? The prince came back that day and locked himself in the study, staring at a bracelet in a daze all day long. ”
Yu Xizhou's eyes changed significantly, and his eyes gradually dimmed.
Yuan Xi continued to speak, and his voice was a little panicked, as if he was afraid that he would not be able to speak again if he broke off: "The prince knew that you were leaving, so he specially asked Chaoxi to escort him all the way, and he didn't let go until he was sent to Xiaoyou, but he still looked absent-minded." ”
"Since he really cares about me so much, why did he accompany Zhao Qingran to the temple to ask for a son! Didn't he just want a child? I used to have too! Yu Xizhou turned around and looked at Yun Xi on the ground angrily, his body trembled uncontrollably, and his tears also slipped down in response, shouting hoarsely.
Yun Xi looked at Yu Xizhou with tears on her face, knowing that her heart had collapsed, and she was a little worried about her body, but now what was more worrying was Shen Nanfeng's safety.
Seeing that Yu Xizhou looked like he was falling down at any time, Xiao You hurriedly ran over, stretched out his hand to support her, and let her sit on the stool next to her, standing behind her to guard her.
Yu Xizhou has always been happy when he came here, but he didn't expect his family to suffer such a big change, and he felt a little resentful of Shen Nanfeng in his heart, but listening to what Yunxi said, he sighed deeply and didn't speak.
"How do you know the prince's plan if you don't please Zhao Qingran, do you know that the prince has always been like a sister to Zhao Qingran? Now that the prince has begun to implement the plan, the border is in turmoil, Kyoto is surrounded by groups, and the people inside are basically unable to enter and exit, although they know that it is Shen Yunchen who is doing ghosts, but they dare not speak out, they can only prevent and not attack. ”
Yu Xizhou's face turned pale all of a sudden, and he squatted down and hugged Yunxi's shoulder, asking if what she said was true.
"What Yun Xi said is true, the prince doesn't let anyone tell the truth to the princess, but Yun Xi is afraid that the princess will always be hidden, and one day she will find out, and now that the prince is in deep danger, Yun Xi really has no way to ......"
Looking at Yun Xi's face full of tears, Yu Xizhou sat down on the ground all of a sudden, his heart was full of guilt, it turned out that he had been misunderstanding Shen Nanfeng all along, and he had no choice but to do so.
Xiao You helped the two people on the ground up, and was about to make them some food, but was stopped by Yu Xizhou.
"Xiao Yu, you help me take care of Yunxi, I'll go and prepare the salute and carriage, and we'll go back to Kyoto tomorrow."
After speaking, Yu Xizhou left, and there were only two people in the huge room, Xiao You and Yun Xi. Yun Xi still had undried tears on her face, and then she remembered that Xiao You had always been by her side, so she quickly wiped the tears on her face and looked at Xiao You a little shyly.
At Shang Yunxi's gaze, Xiao Yu's face turned red all of a sudden, and she quickly poured her a glass of water, she had just cried for so long, she must be very thirsty.
The atmosphere became more and more awkward, Xiao You seemed to be able to hear his heartbeat, stood up with a blushing face, and said in a little panic: "You...... Wait a minute, I'll get you something to eat. ”
Before Yunxi could refuse, Xiao You ran out, shook his head helplessly, looked at the steaming water in the cup on the table, and couldn't help but smile, his heart was warm.
"This is orange cake, you taste it, I specially ...... Done! "I wanted to say that I did it specifically for Yunxi, but Xiao Yu still didn't say it.
The next day, Yu Xizhou took Xiao You and Yun Xi back to the court, wanting to join their team, even if they couldn't give advice, at least they could eat well.
"He Chao?"
When he came to the palace and was about to go to the imperial study to find the emperor, Yu Xizhou saw a familiar figure, and when he got closer, he looked at him with a surprised face, feeling a little angry and relieved, he was fine.
There was also a girl behind He Chao, who looked very delicate, but her big eyes were somewhat similar to He Chao, and when she saw Yu Xizhou, the girl jumped out, looked at her, and said: "You are Sister Xizhou, my brother told me, it really looks like a fairy!" ”
