Turning her head to look at the sky, it was really bright, so she slept until now?

Thinking of something, Pei Jinzhen's expression darkened.

Yan Chong's eyes darkened for a moment, but only for a moment, he regained his spirits, "Are you hungry?" After a night's sleep, they should be hungry, but you can't be hungry now, I'll let them go to the kitchen and get some food. As he spoke, he raised his hand and drew the bell beside the curtain.

Pei Jinzhen suddenly raised his hand and grabbed his sleeve.

Yan Chong made a pause, and after a while, he lowered his eyes, just right, Pei Jinzhen also raised his head, looking at each other, sometimes, the tacit understanding is such a special existence, with one look, I know what you want to say.

Because I don't want to hear it, I subconsciously want to escape.

But there are some things that you can't face without saying them.

Pei Jinzhen took a deep breath and asked in a soothing tone, "What about brother?" ”

Yan Chong was silent for a while, probably knowing that this was not something that could be avoided, and after a little silence, he said in a dumb voice, "I was taken back to the palace with Xiao Qi." ”

"Brother is here to save Brother Sheng...... We can't leave him alone. He had to be allowed to settle in the ground earlier, he was afraid that he didn't like to stay in the palace for too long. Let's find out where my father and mother are buried, and if we can ask Your Majesty for mercy...... And over there in the pocket alley, I'm afraid I have to report it, right...... And Zhao An......"

Pei Jinzhen's tone was quite calm, but when he spoke, he was incoherent, and the tears in his eyes that had been resting for a long time fell again.

But no matter what she said, Yan Chong was just a "hmm" word, not perfunctory, but a promise.

It's just that after Pei Jinji's words, he only felt that his chest was suffocating, and he couldn't speak, and both of them fell silent.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Luo Lin's voice sounded outside the door, "Childe, someone has come to the palace, and you will be summoned to the palace by His Majesty's instructions." ”

Yan Chong turned his head with a calm expression.

Pei Jinzhen was able to get up, and after a while, the two looked at each other, but Pei Jinzhen bit his lower lip and said, "I will go with you." No matter what, we're all in one place. ”

Yan Chong's eyes darkened and he didn't say anything, but in his eyes, it seemed to contain a thousand words, and he nodded after all.

But when he got up, Pei Jinzhen's pupils shrank suddenly, "Your legs ......"

Yan Chongfang had been sitting all the time, afraid that he had deliberately concealed it, but she didn't see it, he was dragging one leg, and there was a cane at hand.

Yan Chong's smile was still as bright as the sun, "The leg bone is broken, and it has dragged on for a longer time, the master has seen it, and said that it is going to be interrupted and re-grown, but it will probably have some impact in the future, if it really becomes a cripple, will Wanwan dislike me?" ”

When he said this, although Yan Chong was still smiling, his eyes were firmly fixed on Pei Jinzhen.

has been a husband and wife for two lifetimes, Pei Jinzhen can see that he is nervous. couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, so the invincible Yan Er Gongzi actually had times when he was not confident.

Without hesitation, she stepped forward and kissed him lightly on the forehead, "You keep your promise to me and come back alive, even if you are lame or disabled, as long as you come back, it will be fine." ”

Her tone was light, with a smile, and Yan Chong's throat was bitter.

Although he didn't say anything, she looked at his injuries and knew that it would not be easy for him to come back.

On the way to the palace, Yan Chong talked to her lightly about this trip to Beidi, about Hu Wei, about Chickweed, about finding him regardless of military orders, escorting him, and in the end only two of them were left Hu Jun and other secret guards, talking about the people Ye Zhun sent out, found him, and escorted him......

The carriage kicked and stomped, his voice was low and hoarse, but Pei Jinzhen heard the hardships and bloody wind along the way, looked at his broken leg, red eyes, smiled slightly, listened, and did not speak.

When I entered the palace gate, the snow stopped again.

Miyagi under the light snow has a different kind of beauty.

Yan Chong was led into the imperial study, and before letting go of her hand, the two looked at each other and smiled, silently speaking, each other knew in their hearts.

Pei Jinzhen stood at the door of the imperial study, and Xiao Jiang stepped forward with his hand, "Madam, Your Majesty and the prince don't know how much work to talk about, it's cold this day, don't stand on this outlet, the servants are waiting for you to go to Fengzao Palace, right?" ”

Everyone in the palace knew that Empress Zheng liked Mrs. Hou Shizi of Jing'an, and they also knew that Pei Jinzhen would definitely go to greet Empress Zheng when she entered the palace.

Pei Jinzhen shook his head, "I'll wait for the prince to come out, and then I will go to the queen mother to say goodbye." As he spoke, his eyes remained straight in the direction of the Imperial Study.

Xiao Jiang also turned his head to take a look, and stepped forward again, "Then, why don't you wait for the slave to rest in the side hall for a while?" ”

"No, I'll just wait here." After that, he glanced at Xiao Jiang again, and probably saw his embarrassment, so he couldn't help but whisper, "You go and ask someone to move a chair, and I'll sit under this porch for a while." ”

Xiao Jiang hesitated in response, but turned around and brought a group of people, not only a chair, but also a square table, a brazier, a blanket, and hot refreshments.

Seeing this, Pei Jinzhen couldn't help but smile and said, "It's too troublesome for Father-in-law Xiaojiang." ”

"No trouble, no trouble, Mrs. Shizi is now expensive, if she catches a cold, Your Majesty and the Queen Mother will definitely punish the servants for not serving them well."

Pei Jinzhen's eyes flashed slightly, and he no longer shirked, and sat down with peace of mind.

In the imperial study, there was silence.

After a long time, Emperor Yonghe looked up at Yan Chong, between his eyebrows, with a tiredness that he couldn't hide, his eyes slipped over his much thinner face, and instead fell on the leg he was dragging on, and sighed, "Sit down first!" ”

Yan Chong thanked him, limped to the chair opposite the imperial case and sat down.

"Is the leg injury serious?" Emperor Yonghe asked with concern.

"I've seen it, and it's been delayed for too long, and I'm afraid I'm going to have to re-align my bones." Naturally, it is not as serious as the re-breaking he said to Pei Jinji, but he will definitely suffer a lot.

"You, you, you are so daring, how can you think of running to the northern capital? It's too dangerous, look, the injuries on this body ......" Emperor Yonghe habitually counted down, this was the norm between their uncles and nephews for so many years.

One is willing to speak, the other is willing to listen.

However, it is different.

After saying those two words, Emperor Yonghe fell silent, looking at Yan Chong, who was also silent, and for a while, the atmosphere was a little stagnant.

Earlier, Pei Jinzhen was taken captive, and Emperor Yonghe and Jing'an Hou stood by and watched, even if it was for him, he must have had a knot in his heart. After all, how much he valued Pei's family, they all saw it.

plus the matter of Brother Sheng'er later, the matter of Jing'anhou, and ...... Ye Zhun's death.

This last one is the knot that may never be opened.

Emperor Yonghe's mind was racing, and his eyes were already turning a thousand thoughts, no longer whitewashing the peace and pretending that everything was as usual, and said in a dumb voice, "I can't stand you." ”
