Chapter 22: Outside

The matters of forcing the palace have all ended, but Zhao Wantong is still missing, Zhao Mingyi, and He Shaoqin are very worried.

Zhao Mingyi returned to Zhao's mansion, walked to the lake that was tempting to Zhao Wantong, held a small boat and parked it in the center of the lake, and the whole person lay on his back, pillowing his arms, looking up at the starry sky. I was extremely longing, wondering where Zhao Wantong would be now, but when I thought that she would be like I thought of bad news, my heart was like a knife.

He Shaoqin in the palace was sitting in the study, thinking about where Zhao Wantong would go? Is it really dead? No, it won't, she's not going to die. He Shaoqin strongly denied his bad idea.

The starry sky of the night, the sleepless man all night.

The next day, He Shaoqin sat in the study as usual, holding a book in his hand, but if there was anyone, he would definitely see that his mind no longer knew where to run, and the book in his hand had not turned a page.

"Shizi, my subordinates have something important to report!" Outside the house, Cen Feng's voice sounded, interrupting He Shaoqin's wandering into the sky.

"Shizi, the prince of Yasukuni Si Youmu heard that he appeared in Yasukuni, and it was rumored that he returned to China with a woman, and it is very likely that the woman is Miss Xiao." The news brought by Cen Feng calmed He Shaoqin's heart.

He Shaoqin wanted to leave for Yasukuni immediately to see if Zhao Wantong was in Yasukuni, but he didn't know if she was doing well or if she was injured. Although He Shaoqin's heart was complicated and troubled, he still looked expressionless.

"Okay, I know, you go and invite the little prince over, and say that I have something important to discuss." He Shaoqin ordered to go down, and when Cen Feng withdrew from the door, he boldly glanced at his master, although the master did not express any happiness and pleasure, but the brow was unconsciously lowered, and he no longer wrinkled tightly and had already leaked some of his thoughts.

Cen Feng said that his master is Tsundere, obviously worried about Miss Xiao, and he still has an expression of indifference. When I heard the news from Miss Xiao at this time, I couldn't sit still!

Ignoring the injury on his hand, Streamer heard Cen Feng say that there was something important to discuss, and thought that there was something wrong with Emperor Xuanming, so he hurried to the Zhongyong Palace.

Who knows, he hurriedly came over and saw that it was indeed He Shaoqin who looked thoughtful. Even when he entered the study and sat in front of him, there was no reaction.

"Hey, Shizi, Shizi......" No matter how much the streamer called him, he didn't answer. Miss Xiao, you ......" Hearing these words, He Shaoqin raised his head suddenly, his eyes flashing with an unknown look.

At first glance, it turned out that it was the streamer who deceived him. I couldn't help but feel a little lost and a little embarrassed. Touching his nose, "You're here." "

The old god of the streamer is here, "You are in a hurry to find me, what is the matter?"

He Shaoqin said rightly: "I heard that Si Youmu appeared in Yasukuni, and I want to go to Xiao Xue." Streamer raised his eyebrows and motioned for him to continue. Since Si Youmu was with Xiao Xue at the beginning and lost his trace together, presumably Xiao Xue may also be with him. So I went to Yasukuni to find her, and you stayed in Chu to gain the trust of Emperor Xuanming, and now is the best time for you to brush his trust. Always pay attention to Emperor Xuanming's movements, if there is any movement, you can send me a letter. "

The streamer looked at him meaninglessly: "Have you decided?"

He Shaoqin took a cup of tea, took a sip from his mouth, got up, and looked in the direction from the window of the study, as if he wanted to cross such a long distance and see the person he wanted to see immediately. "You know, I can't give up, after so many years, I still don't believe that she will die, and finally a woman who looks so much like her has appeared, and it feels so familiar to me, I can't just give up." After all, she is my favorite woman in my life, little Cher, I miss you.

Streamer was also sad in his heart, but he quickly collected his mood, got up and paced to him, patted his shoulder, and conveyed his feelings.

Qi Qi looked in the direction of the palace, as if he was thinking about someone to pay tribute to, and he was surrounded by sorrows, which made people feel sad.

Zhao Mingyi of the Zhao Mansion also got the news quickly, and he was excited to go to Yasukuni for a while, and immediately wanted to pack his luggage to find her.

But when he learned that He Shaoqin was going to Yasukuni to look for her, he calmed down.

With his sensitive identity, it is not good to appear in Yasukuni like this, and there has just been a rebellion, so he needs to stay in Beijing to deter those who are secretly Xiaoxiao, not to mention that there are still the remnants of the Zhang and Wei families who are still absconding outside, and if they don't find out for a day, the people in Beijing will be panicked.

For these reasons, Zhao Mingyi had no choice but to stabilize his mood, visit He Shaoqin, and ask him to bring Zhao Wantong back safely. What's more, Zhao Wantong must also want to see him for the first time! Thinking of this, Zhao Mingyi felt a sour feeling in his heart again, and smiled bitterly.

When He Shaoqin set off, he heard that his subordinates had reported that General Zhengxi was visiting, and he realized that he immediately invited him in.

The place of this conversation was in the living room of the lobby, and the subordinates introduced Zhao Mingyi into the palace, and after arriving at the living room, they all went down.

"Since the general is here, why don't you sit down with me and have a good chat?" He Shaoqin scooped the tea leaves with a wooden spoon made of mahogany and put them into a gaiwan on the side, and poured the boiling water in the pot, and the steam brought a fragrance of tea to rise.

Zhao Mingyi watched him brew boiling water repeatedly, and then poured boiling water into a porcelain bowl and placed it in front of him.

Zhao Mingyi looked at his action of making tea, and only felt that the indescribable charm turned out to be not only beautiful for women to make tea, but also for men.

He Shaoqin gently held the celadon, the celadon was held in the palm of his hand, and a few pieces of tea in the cup stretched and rotated in the clear and turquoise liquid, and then slowly sank. The buds shine brightly, reflecting each other.

Zhao Mingyi only felt a peace in his heart, as if he had been washed of the emotions in his chest, and his mind was empty.

"Presumably, the prince also knows what the purpose of my coming here today is, and I don't beat around the bush, I just ask the prince to bring her back safely, and tell her that I will wait for her to return home in Zhao Mansion." Zhao Mingyi put down the porcelain cup and looked at He Shaoqin calmly.

He Shaoqin saw the depths in his eyes, looked at each other for a long time, and only nodded slightly, "This is natural, general, please rest assured!" Agreed to Zhao Mingyi's request.

Zhao Mingyi looked at what he wanted to say, and he stopped talking, He Shaoqin looked at him questioningly. The corners of Zhao Mingyi's mouth raised slightly, shook his head, and left with his fists clenched. No one could see the bitterness and sourness of his relief.

He Shaoqin was silent for a moment, and it was not until someone came to urge him that he bid farewell to King Zhongyong and went to Yasukuni.

Si Youmu's consciousness gradually became clear, and there was a faint pain in his abdomen. When I opened my eyes, the tenaged leucorrhoea had overflowed with blood. There was a slight frown between his eyebrows, but he quickly rolled over and sat up.

The fire in front of him had been extinguished, but there was still a trace of black smoke. Lying on the other side was the sleeping Zhao Wantong.

Chapter 110: Thinking about it

At this time, the sky is dawning. Looking up, the color of the mountain was just red. Si Youmu's eyes narrowed slightly, and his right hand clenched his abdomen, which was full of blood. He didn't actually feel any pain at all, because he was used to it. With his left hand, he brushed away the broken hair in front of Zhao Wantong's forehead, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The strong smell of herbs ripples under the nose.

He thought to himself, what a nasty smell.

More than 10 years ago, Yasukuni was just one of many small countries, and it can be said that it was not well known. At that time, the mainland was also divided into five major countries, the Great Chu, the Red Kingdom, the Yun Kingdom, the Chengbei Kingdom, and the Phoenix Kingdom. Even now, there are still many people who can't believe it. Among the five countries, the most rampant Phoenix was the first to decline.

And, only because of a teenager. That scene, all the rescues from other countries who went to the Phoenix Kingdom Hall, will always be remembered. The boy was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he was full of anger. The black and red cloth shirt has a cold expression, but a smile on his face. In the past of the Phoenix Kingdom, the emperor who looked down on people was crawling at the feet of the young man at this time, full of fear.

That's thinking about it.

People from other countries are not so much afraid of the Yasukuni Emperor as they are afraid of Si Youmu, which is more appropriate. After the defeat of the Phoenix State, Yasukuni's ambitions were not satisfied. Instead, it inherited the momentum of the Phoenix Kingdom back then, and continued to invade and seize nearby small countries. In the next few years, Da Chu, one of the five countries, also came with news of forcing the palace.

Many small countries were excited at once, and Da Chu retreated one after another in the face of external and internal troubles. Yasukuni has just risen to prominence, and naturally it will not let go of such fat meat. Si Youmu personally led the troops and captured five cities in three days. Where the soldiers are approaching the next city, the soldiers' momentum is also high.

That year was the seventh year of Da Chu Tongxian, and everyone was sighing about the new emperor, and this position was about to be given up in a few days. Si Youmu felt more and more uneasy, because of some things in the Phoenix Kingdom, his whole person was very different from him before the age of 12.

Sure enough, the battle that was originally intended to be won, but because of the arrival of another teenager, Si Youmu suffered great losses with more losses and fewer losses. The boy was about his age, though he hadn't seen it in the face. But on the far wall, I once saw it. The young man's face was still fair and childish, and there was the same certainty in his eyes.

It was a belief in victory, and the corners of Si Youmu's mouth hooked. Since then, he has not attacked Da Chu again. He secretly swore in his heart that one day in the future he would defeat that young man and take Da Chu.

As soon as Zhao Wantong woke up from his dream, he smelled the aroma of roast chicken. Zhao Wantong, who hadn't eaten for almost a day and a night, pulled out and got up. The roast chicken with golden skin came into view at once, and she smacked her lips and looked up at Si Youmu of the roast chicken.

The rising sun shone on the side of his face, flushing slightly. His expression is soft and his face is thin. Zhao Wantong was almost stunned, but after seeing his colorless lips and the white belt spilling blood. Suddenly, he realized that he had injured his abdomen trying to save himself. And now, I actually go to catch pheasants without knowing it. This, the injury is still there?

noticed Zhao Wantong's worried eyes. Thinking about it, he suddenly smiled sideways.

said: "Don't worry, I'm not as stupid as you to see the injured people asleep, if a bandit comes halfway, you and I will be terrible now." ”

There was some playfulness in Si Youmu's tone, and he raised his eyebrows. Zhao Wantong didn't see it at all, but he was still a little worried: "Then, how did you get this pheasant?" ”

You know, pheasants are alive. Si Youmu is now seriously injured, because it was dark last night, Zhao Wantong couldn't recognize the herbs and weeds at all, so he just bandaged and stopped the bleeding, but he didn't take any medicine. In other words, as long as you move a little, you may not stop bleeding like last night.

Thinking about catching pheasants like this, I feel that the gains outweigh the losses.

Through his expression, Si Youmu naturally knew what Zhao Wantong was confused about. He picked up the pebble next to him, weighed it in his hand a few times, and said, "Rely on this, how easy it is." ”

Zhao Wantong said with an expression that thought Si Youmu was teasing her: "You are playing with me?" ”

Si Youmu waved his hand and placed the roast chicken on a nearby boulder. His right hand rested on his lips and teeth, and he said, "Shhh." ”

Zhao Wantong was puzzled, and saw that Si Youmu pointed to something strange in the bushes in front of him. She thought that the group was still in hot pursuit, and immediately looked nervous and slowed down her breathing. Just listen, the sound of "shivering" is getting closer and closer. Finally, when there was only a layer of low bushes, Zhao Wantong suddenly realized that it should not be a chasing soldier, it might be a nearby beast, and he was inexplicably relieved.

Si Youmu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he threw the stone in his hand fiercely. Suddenly, there was a loud cry. Si Youmu turned around and grinned, got up, walked to the bushes with some sonorous steps, and groped twice. The right hand lifted a fat pheasant and shook it several times in front of Zhao Wantong's stunned expression.

Si Youmu smiled: "Serve? ”

Zhao Wantong nodded: "Serve." ”

After a big meal, Si Youmu and Zhao Wantong said while hurrying, because of the front
