Chapter 709: Bring Him Back
"You're again."
Looking at the familiar handsome face, Chu Nian suddenly felt a little aggrieved, she wrinkled her brows and shook her head shallowly, "I'm fine, I'm just ......"
Ming Xiu looked at the rest of the people, and saw that the other people hurriedly turned their faces away and looked away, Chu Nian tightened his brows, and his body suddenly fell into a warm embrace.
Smelling the smell of lotus flowers, Jiang Nuan's expression froze, and after a while, his body slowly relaxed, and he completely indulged in his arms.
I heard Ming Xiu's voice above my head, "You're tired." ”
This time, Chu Nian didn't refute, and obediently let Ming Xiu take her shoulders and walk towards the other room.
This night, unusually dreamy.
The peach in the dream is still that calm and unhurried light appearance, the peach blossom's eyes are a little indifferent to Chu Nian, the folding fan in his hand is gently shaken, but the thin lips are beady.
"Chu Nian, what do you owe me?"
When he woke up, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and when he raised his eyes, a slender figure was sitting by the window on the side, and his eyes flashed slightly in a pair of narrow eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
The sound of Chu Nian staying in the house woke up the person in the dream, and Ming Xiu turned his eyes to look at her: "Wake up." ”
Nodding, Chu Nian went to the table by the window and took tea to moisten his throat, "Why did His Highness come back so early, and did the emperor also return to Beijing?" ”
Ming Xiu nodded slowly. "Because I heard about the affairs in the capital, my father is not at ease to leave you alone to deal with it, I always feel that the king of Huainan is very unreliable, so I will clean up the affairs of Concubine Niangniang as soon as possible, and just wait for the things to be resolved, and then give Concubine Ling a good funeral."
"Where's your side?" Ming Xiu raised his eyes and looked directly at Chu Nian, "It is said that this incident was caused by the Queen Mother's strength?" ”
Chu Nian took a deep breath and nodded slowly.
"Now the illusionists in the capital are all put in by the Queen Mother, which can be confirmed, but I haven't been able to get evidence."
Ming Xiu looked at Chu Nian with deep eyes, and after a while, he withdrew his gaze, took a deep breath, and said, "I know, you have been dealing with the affairs of the imperial city and the affairs of the palace for the past few days, and you have taught me that is." ”
"Your Royal Highness......" Chu Nian twisted his brows slightly, and reminded in a low voice: "If the Queen Mother didn't make any big mistakes, the emperor's side is not easy to explain." ”
Ming Xiu's eyes flashed slightly, and he nodded slightly, "I know, don't worry, you must rest well these days, if I know that you will be strong." ”
Ming Xiu raised his eyes and looked at Chu Nian with an innocent face with a twisted brow, "I can't help you." ”
Chu Nian couldn't help but hook a flower at the corner of his mouth, and a pair of watery eyes narrowed slightly into a slit and looked at Ming Xiu in front of him, "Your Highness, you didn't rest all night last night, today's affairs in the palace will be temporarily handed over to Concubine Liangniang to help, Your Highness should rest early." ”
Hearing this, Ming Xiu twisted his brows slightly, "I'm not sleepy yet......"
Chu Nian crossed his waist, raised his eyebrows, and pretended to be mean. "If Your Highness doesn't rest well, why should you care about me."
Seeing this, Ming Xiu had no choice but to shake his head helplessly, "You girl, just like this-"
Chu Nian's face cooled a little, and at this time, Mei Xiang would come over to help her freshen up.
But it was almost noon, and no one had come.
Ming Xiu also seemed to be sensitive to something, his brows tightened again, and he said softly: "Mei Xiang's hatred-"
Chu Nian twisted his eyebrows, "I've already reported it." ”
"Is there anything else Mei Xiang needs to take care of?"
Chu Nian shook her head slightly, where does Mei Xiang have any family, the girl's family is long gone, earlier, the girl also swore that she is her only family member......
There was a dull pain in his chest, and Chu Nian took a deep breath, "I have my own measure in this matter, Your Highness doesn't have to worry about it." ”
Seeing Ming Xiu's eyes flickering slightly, he nodded slightly, "I know, you ......"
"Take care of yourself."
His hand hung on Chu Nian's shoulder for a moment, and then fell, gently hugging the person into his arms.
"It's okay, you still have me."
Chu Nian's eyes were stunned and he didn't speak, and after a while, a far-fetched smile rose at the corner of his mouth, "Your Highness, don't worry, I won't seek death for Mei Xiang." ”
She's used to it.
The people she loves the most have left her side one by one, and such days have been experienced for two lifetimes.
On top of that, having lost so much, she has finally become a person who has nothing to lose.
The warm breath coming from Ming Xiu's body was reassuring, Chu Nian slowly relaxed his body, and tried his best to keep his whole body nested in Ming Xiu's arms, and he took a deep breath.
I heard Ming Xiu's voice in my ears, "There is me, you and me." ”
The warm sunlight shone in from the window, and Chu Nian slowly narrowed his eyes.
If the days could really be so peaceful, if she could have been earlier, the days would have been so peaceful.
A deep sense of powerlessness swept through the body, Ming Xiu felt the emotions of the person in his arms, silently helped her to sit on the couch, and then looked at her with a twisted brow, but his voice was inexplicably softer: "You look like this now, how can I go back to the palace with confidence." ”
Chu Nian took a deep breath and smiled lightly, "Your Highness go back earlier, I'll stay alone for a while, and it will be fine." ”
"Nian'er, you ......"
Ming Xiu wanted to say something, but was stopped by Chu Nian waving his hand, "Your Highness, go quickly, let me be quiet for a while, and when I figure it out, it will be over." ”
Seeing this, Ming Xiu had no choice but to sigh helplessly, turned around, and hurriedly walked out of the vanilla house.
Chu Nian sat in place, staring at a corner of the ground that had fallen into ashes, stunned.
She really had nothing to lose.
When the new maid hurriedly came over to wait for Chu Nian to get up, it was already evening, and Chu Nian sat on the couch alone, stiffening motionless for the whole afternoon, and when he moved, every movement would bring a crisp sound of "popping".
The newcomer maid was startled by Chu Nian's movements, and said in a low voice, "County Lord, you...... Are you alright? ”
Chu Nian calmly took the towel she handed over, silently cleaned his face, and then said lightly: "I'm fine, you can go and get busy later, it's okay for me to come by myself." ”
The little maid looked at Chu Nian's indifferent appearance, slightly lost, and took a deep breath, "County Lord, I also regret Sister Mei Xiang's matter...... But since the deceased has passed away, the living should live well, if the county lord feels unhappy, Sister Mei Xiang will definitely not be happy in the spirit of the sky, not to mention ......"
"Sister Mei Xiang gave a dream to the slave maid last night, saying that she wanted the slave maid to take care of the county lord for a good life, and besides, she was also very happy in the spirit of heaven."
Chu Nian's face was stunned, and after a while, she laughed helplessly, and now she has been reduced to the extent that she is about to be preached by a little maid.
Seeing Chu Nian smile again, although it was a wry smile, the little maid was still very happy, she took a few steps forward and took the towel from Chu Nian's hand, and then continued: "That's right, as long as the person is still there, as long as you can still laugh,
Everything will be solved. ”
Chu Nian nodded, and seemed to be very much in favor of the little maid's proposal, and it was not until he finished washing up that Chu Nian raised his eyes to look at the little maid's delicate face.
"What's your name?"
The little maid looked at Chu Nian pitifully, "The slave's name is Biyu, this name is still given by the county lord, and the slave maid ......."
Chu Nian coughed lightly, not knowing how to face this little girl's resentment, so he changed the topic and said, "Biluo, what Mei Xiang has done, you should clear it up, right?" ”
Biluo nodded hurriedly, and saw Chu Nian take a deep breath, "Then from now on, all the things of Meixiang will be done by you, I still have something to do today, and I want to go out." ”
Seeing this, Bi Luo hurriedly whispered yes, and saw Chu Nian walking to the door, and his footsteps stopped, "Prepare the carriage." ”
"Yes."
……
For several days, there was a calm in the capital, as if all the illusionists had disappeared from the capital.
Chu Nian sat in the courtyard of the Su family's old house with his brows twisted, and looked at Xiao Su Su, who was frolicking not far away, as if this day had calmed down like this.
But the officers and soldiers patrolling outside, as well as the quiet streets, all indicate the bad news that is about to appear in this imperial city.
"Are you going to go over here? Bring Wu Liang and Qingyi with you. Ming Xiu walked in with a twisted brow, and saw Chu Nian sitting under the tree, and said in a low voice.
A few days ago, Xichu Yueling sent a letter from Fang, saying that it was now that Xichu was also in chaos, but she found a place suspected to be Qinghe's headquarters at the border of Xichu, and she did not make a public announcement, but sent a message to Chu Nian in advance, saying that she wanted to go to investigate together.
It is best to take advantage of this opportunity to simply destroy the headquarters of Qinghe, and the people who called Qinghe will no longer be able to pose any threat to them.
If this could be so simple, it would be fine, Chu Nian took a deep breath and raised his eyes to look at Ming Xiu.
"I'm going to bring Dark Three with me."
"Okay."
Ming Xiu agreed almost without hesitation, he looked directly at Chu Nian, and said lightly: "You can take it with you except for the dark four, only the dark four is too sick now, I'm afraid I can't give it to you." ”
Chu Nian nodded, "I know, the Lord of the Medical God and the master and apprentice of Ah Wu will stay and help, and the others will go with me, but the capital ......"
She raised her eyes and looked at Ming Xiu with some reluctance, "I'll leave it to His Highness to take care of." ”
Ming Xiu's eyes flashed slightly and nodded, "I have prepared a carriage for you to use, it should be there later." ”
It just so happened that Wu Liang and the others packed up their things and walked out of it, and when they saw Ming Xiu and Chu Nian standing at the door, he hurriedly covered his eyes, "Eh, I didn't know that His Highness was also there, and I disturbed the ...... between His Highness and the county lord."
Chu Nian rolled his eyes, turned his eyes to look at Ming Xiu, and saw that Ming Xiu opened his mouth slightly, only then did he take a deep breath and said in a shallow voice: "Bring Tao Jinyan back." ”
Hearing this, Chu Nian nodded slightly, turned around and looked at Wu Liang and the others who had packed up, "Let's go." ”
As she spoke, she raised her legs and passed by Ming Xiu's side without saying a word.
By the time everyone got into the carriage that Ming Xiu had already prepared for them and set off, it was already evening, and the dark three, who was assigned to take care of Chu Nian's safety on Chu Nian's car, sat in place without saying a word, staring directly at a certain place on the ground, not knowing what he was thinking.
Chu Nian raised his eyes slightly and glanced at him, before he withdrew his gaze, and this party turned his eyes to look at the green passing by outside the window, and took a deep breath.
Hopefully, this trip will really end this.
