Chapter 928: If You Want One More Thing
After a while, Zhou Wuce walked out of the house, which was the residence of Emperor Qi in Qi Jing when he was the prince.
Although it no longer lives, it is full of soldiers inside and outside, and it has become a place for merchants and soldiers in Beijing.
Generously give them a place to live, one to show politeness, and the other to monitor.
Although the two countries have deepened cooperation through peaceful exchanges, the war six years ago has caused heavy casualties in both countries.
And now the emperor, six years ago, almost died in the Great Zhou.
At that time, the first emperors of Qi were ready to mourn, and at the critical moment, Chu Rin returned.
"Your Highness."
Not long after Zhou Wuce left the house, the guards immediately stepped forward.
"Your Highness, Emperor Qi is here again."
Zhou Wuce's eyes were slightly gloomy, he knew that not long after entering Qi, Emperor Qi would go to visit Liuli.
He learned from Liuli's mouth that among all the princes, the fourth brother was good to her, even his own brother Chu Libei had not.
Therefore, he didn't think much about it, Quan Dang's brother and sister hadn't seen each other for a long time, and it was normal for them to come to visit.
But now, one after another, today is the end of the national ceremony dinner, and there is an accident in Shoukang Palace.
At this time, it is very undesirable.
"How long have you been here?"
"Back to Your Highness, there is already a stick of incense."
When the child has passed, it is not the time to come, and at that time, the matter of Shoukang Palace has not been resolved.
Zhou Wuce turned around, went to the entrance of the alley, and immediately got on the horse, did not take the carriage, and whipped up.
The courtyard he placed for Liuli was south of Qijing, which was very remote and some distance from here.
didn't choose the nearest road, took a detour, this is the country of Qi, even if it is well arranged, he should be careful.
galloped almost half of the incense, and then said to the back door of the house.
When the guards on both sides saw this, they were very surprised, and they were busy cheering up, "Your Highness, it's so late, and my subordinates thought you wouldn't come." ”
"Is the emperor still alive?"
After asking, Zhou Wuce entered the house.
"Your Highness, Emperor Qi came to visit, and he just left."
Zhou Wuce stared for a moment, nodded and then moved forward, took a few steps and stopped, "Where is General Qiu?" ”
The guard was a little confused, "Didn't you grant her leave?" She came for a while, and left with less than a cup of tea, saying that she was looking for a friend. ”
The word friend dispelled Zhou Wuce's doubts, Qiu Tong's only friend in Qijing was Qin Yunshu.
What a smart and clever woman, and Mrs. Dingbei Hou, he can trust it.
So, he didn't delve into it anymore, and walked back to the courtyard with a few steps.
When he arrived, the candle had been extinguished, and when he pushed the door and entered the bed, he saw a small lump on the bed.
She had already fallen asleep, and his steps became gentler and gentle, and when he reached the bedside, he saw her hands exposed under the covers.
is still so naughty, she can't sleep well, and she has to cover her every time.
If he wasn't there, Qi Jing would be colder than Da Zhou, wouldn't he be freezing?
Zhou Wuce took her hand and pulled away the corner cover.
But at this moment, his hand was held, and he looked down, and the bright women's eyes came into view.
"Didn't sleep?"
Chu Liuli smiled, "You are so moving, how can I sleep?" ”
Zhou Wuce thought about it carefully, raised his hand and made a note on her forehead, "Obviously you don't sleep by yourself, what do you want to ask when I come back?" ”
Her mind has never been hidden from him. The two have known each other for a year, but they know him better than her mother.
She was still wondering before, what did he do with this heart? Exquisite, insightful.
"Today's national ceremony, is everything going well? What happened to my grandmother? And my imperial sister-in-law, how long will she live? ”
She knew that the royal brother married Miss Xie Fu, and it was Xie Man'er.
This person has had a holiday with her. On the Spring Festival, she publicly identified Xie Man'er for pushing people into the river, with every word and a very bad tone.
But now, the imperial brother has married her, and according to the rules, she should respectfully call the imperial sister-in-law.
"It's going very well, the Queen Mother is in good health, and she is very happy to celebrate today. As for your imperial sister-in-law, your imperial brother protects her, and I think I like her very much. ”
Chu Liuli smiled, "I didn't expect that my cold Fourth Emperor Brother would still like people." I thought ......"
At this, she paused, her smile stiffened for a moment.
almost said what was in her heart, she thought that all emperors were cruel and ruthless.
The heart is so big, let go of the country, where is the place to put the girl?
"You still think that the emperor is ruthless."
With a faint sound, Chu Liuli chuckled for a while, and when he was about to take a closer look, a handsome face suddenly magnified in the dark night.
The snort was swirling, and she only felt a light kiss on her forehead.
"Your four emperor brothers are all ruthless, and this palace doesn't know. This temple only knows, and treats you with one heart. ”
He doesn't care about others, and he doesn't ask.
He is only responsible for his own life, which is what his mother taught him since he was a child.
"No choice, I didn't say you."
Chu Liuli stared at him, said fixedly, and then held him.
Even if it is silent, it only takes a glance for both of them to understand.
There was silence in the room, and the charcoal fire in the stove was burning, and the endless warmth was flowing slowly.
Outside the house, the cold wind is everywhere, and the cold pierces people's hearts.
The outskirts of Beijing are a wilderness, with no trees to shelter them.
Qiu Tong was very cold, her arms wrapped around her, she was still shivering, she bit her lip and looked at the man in front of her.
He's crazy!
She had just come out of Liuli, and she wanted to stay outside for one night and go to Dingbei Hou's Mansion tomorrow.
Who knows, he was robbed halfway. And the person who ordered her to be robbed should have been in the palace, and he was here late at night, what did he want to do?
What did she Qiutong do that hurt the heavens and reason?
"Your Majesty, I am the escort envoy of the Zhou State, you should be courteous, this is your hospitality?"
Every word seemed to pop out from between her teeth, and Qiu Tong's martial arts practitioners, but the coldness of Daqi still made her unbearable.
Chu Rin looked down at her, and then looked at the outer cloak that she had knocked to the ground.
"I gave it to you, but you didn't wear it."
Qiu Tong pursed her lips, is this what people say?
"Your clothes, give me to wear, they don't conform to the rules."
As soon as the words fell, Chu Rin suddenly stepped forward, and she hurriedly retreated in fright, but was suddenly restrained by a big hand that suddenly stretched out.
"Qiu Tong, what are the rules you are talking about?"
The two were extremely close, and their breath smelled each other.
The strange and once familiar smell made her heart pound.
But she thought of what he said when she left the Qi country, and how she re-entered Qi and witnessed the national ceremony.
The woman who accompanied him to the Temple of Heaven still saw that she was pregnant, even though she was wearing a spacious and luxurious dress.
Qiu Tong took a deep breath, faced the cold wind, and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, the last time you visited Liuli, I said a word to you. Congratulations, you're going to be a father. ”
As soon as the words fell, Chu Rin's eyes suddenly deepened, and the big hand that was touching her waist suddenly exerted force, and she almost hissed out in pain.
"What do you mean? Where did I say it wrong? ”
Qiu Tong knew that when he showed this appearance, he was angry.
She had experienced it six years ago. He is not without temper, he is rarely provoked, and when he touches, it is terrible.
But she didn't understand, which word was wrong about what she said?
It feels very uncomfortable to be controlled, not to mention that he is looking at it so condescendingly.
She struggled desperately, and in the end, she stepped directly on the instep of his foot.
"Qiu Tong, Zhou Guojun gave me so many beauties. If I ask for one more, you say, would he be willing? ”
