Chapter 42: The Wicked Have Evil Retribution

Xiao Bao was excited, forgot all the things he had just tangled up, and rushed out happily, and when he saw Baili Lan's shadow, he threw himself into her warm embrace. The familiar feeling made Xiaobao's eyes red, but he remembered that the eldest sister said that he didn't like to see a man crying, so he forcibly went back, and said in a slightly choked voice: "Eldest sister, Xiaobao finally saw you again!" ”

The body stiffened, Bai Lilan didn't expect this little thing to be so entangled, so she had a close contact as soon as they met, which made Bai Lilan a little uncomfortable. Baili Lan wanted to break Xiaobao's hand, but when her arm was raised, she hesitated, put it on the back of Xiaobao's head, patted it gently, and said, "Stand up, let me see if you have grown taller." ”

As soon as he heard this, Xiao Bao hurriedly stood up straight and said, "Eldest sister, I haven't been lazy recently, I have to eat well and practice martial arts every day, and I will naturally grow taller!" Look, I'm over your elbows! ”

How tall Xiaobao was, Bai Lilan couldn't remember, and she didn't even have any impression of Xiaobao's face. But this lively little boy makes people feel a sense of intimacy, and they can't help but want to get close to him, pat his little face, and tease him. The child was still young, and there was no need for him to know about his amnesia, so Bai Lilan decided to pretend to be the eldest sister Xiaobao knew well, and talk to him and greet him.

It's just that although Xiaobao is young, his mind is still very mature. After saying a few words, he sensed that something was wrong with Baili Lan, and asked cautiously, "Eldest sister, what's wrong with you?" Isn't it hard to help my brother-in-law fight a while ago? Why don't we go to the meeting first and let Qiushuang make you a cup of tea, okay? ”

Reaching out and rubbing the top of Xiaobao's hair, Baili Lan thought to herself that this child was really sensible, and at a young age, he would observe words and looks. If this is really her younger brother and she has personally cultivated him into what he is today, then she still feels a great sense of accomplishment. However, such children usually have to experience unimaginable pain before they can develop such a character, which is still too cruel for children.

Feeling that Xiaobao's body was very strong, Bai Lilan guessed that he should be a martial arts practitioner, so she asked, "Can you use the new martial arts to learn any martial arts moves recently?" ”

Hearing this, Xiaobao looked at Qiushuang proudly, as if he had bet on the right treasure.

"I've been practicing Nei Gong Mind recently, and I'm practicing meditation every day. Sister, do you want to study? This set of internal strength can relieve fatigue and improve internal strength, or the master gave it to me last time. It's just that I've been running around all the time ago, and I don't have time to study the secrets of internal strength here. ”

Meditate or something, forget it, Baili Lan will fall asleep directly. For that time, Baili Lan would rather practice a few more sets of sword moves.

Walking towards the palace, Baili Lan talked about something else with the theme of spring flowers, pointing to the clusters of flowers over there, and introducing the types of flowers.

Looking at Baili Lan's evasive look, Nangong Jingchen couldn't help but feel unusually cute, she must not like to practice that internal martial arts method very much, looking at her appearance just now, if there is no one around, I really want to step forward and steal incense!

Feeling the strange gaze around him, Baili Lan glared at Nangong Jingchen, with a warning in his eyes, but such a look seemed to Nangong Jingchen to be full of teasing, and he was naturally happy to accept it, so he looked back at the past with a smile.

The sharp gaze was like hitting a ball of cotton, which had no effect at all, which made Bai Lilan very frustrated, and at the same time realized that when Nangong Jingchen was in front of him, he was like a scoundrel, no matter how he reprimanded him, he just blindly accepted and enjoyed it, and then automatically turned into the power of love and continued to entangle himself. Such a vicious circle gave Baili Lan a headache, and felt that there was only one measure to be taken against him in the future, and that was to turn a blind eye.

Everyone sat at the table, the autumn frost and the spring breeze began to make refreshments for the masters, and Xiaobao talked about his various small adventures. Looking sideways at Baili Lan's quiet smile, Nangong Jingchen thought to himself, isn't this the scene in his dream, if Xiaobao is their child, such a scene will be more perfect. Thinking of the child in his heart, Nangong Jingchen couldn't help but feel pain, looking at Baili Lan's gaze, he was also full of self-blame and remorse.

And at this moment, Xiaobao didn't know where his thoughts had drifted, and said something that made the atmosphere change suddenly.

"So, even the wicked have evil retribution, look at that Sima Luobei, isn't it ......"

"Xiaobao!" Nangong Jingchen suddenly stopped him with a voice, and his expression became slightly unnatural. After he stopped Xiaobao, he found that everyone was looking at him, as if it was because of his performance just now, which was too unbelievable. With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Nangong Jingchen said, "Look, your eldest sister has just come back, and she has sat here listening to you say so much and drank so much tea, shouldn't we let your eldest sister eat some dinner?" This is your hometown, and there must be a lot of food that you miss, so why don't you let someone go down and make it for you, okay? ”

When it came to eating, Xiaobao became interested, put what he just said behind him, his eyes lit up, and he began to imagine what the food would look like.

However, Bai Lilan seemed to be very interested in what Xiaobao had just said, and after taking a sip of tea, she asked unhurriedly, "What's wrong with Sima Luobei?" I want to hear the evil retribution of her wicked people. Also, who is she? ”

Actually, Bai Lilan couldn't remember who Sima Luobei was, but she just wanted to know what the ending of this woman was.

Xiaobao choked, and then said: "Eldest sister, you have lost your memory, isn't she the bad woman who grabbed the position of princess with you!" She's miserable now! I was arrogant in the palace before, but in fact, ......"

Qiu Shuang was afraid that this question would be said by a child, and he would not understand it, so he interrupted him with a smile, bowed down to him and said, "Little boy, did you want the slave to prepare those things just now?" ”

"yes!" The attention was distracted by the food again, so Xiaobao threw Baili Lan aside, thinking that after it was ready for a while, he would give it to the eldest sister to taste. Jumping off the chair, Baili Lan followed behind Qiushuang, and said back as she walked out, "Eldest sister, wait for me, and continue to chat with you when I come back!" ”

After Xiaobao left, the room suddenly became quiet, and facing Baililan, Nangong Jingchen suddenly didn't know what to say. Bai Lilan didn't speak, just looked at him like that, his expression was unclear.

Later, He Che ran to Nangong Jingchen's side, saying that there were courtiers in front of him who came to see him, and he had been waiting for an afternoon.

Nangong Jingchen just took advantage of this opportunity to leave first, and although he said that he would come back in a while, Bai Lilan sneered again and again.

Bai Lilan could feel that these people really cared about themselves, but they all avoided one thing in unison. As for what this is, Bai Li Lan can only explore it by himself, and Bai Li Lan can no longer fully believe what others say.

While Xiaobao hadn't come back yet, Baili Lan planned to take a look around the palace and see what kind of difference this place full of strife and darkness would be under the rule of Nangong Jingchen.

Behind Baili Lan are her four maidservants, the situation in this palace is undecided, there are inevitably unknown hidden dangers, and the real imperial power has not been established, so the protection of Bai Lilan must be careful and cautious.

Without the shackles of imprisonment, Baili Lan walked in the palace at will, and found that it was still very beautiful, with carved railings and paintings, pavilions and pavilions, and a scene everywhere. In the past, you could meet the women of the harem at will, but now they have long been nowhere to be found, making the huge harem look a little empty.

After walking for a long time, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, he is tired of seeing it, and Baili Lan walked back without a trace, thinking that Xiaobao should almost come back. And it was at that moment that he turned around, Bai Lilan saw a familiar figure. It was an old woman, dressed in simple clothes, in the corner, observing Baililan all the time. After finding Baili Lan looking this way, he hurriedly turned around and left.

Looking at the figure, Bai Lilan asked, "Who is that person?" ”

The four maids were not from the harem, so they were not very familiar with the old woman, so they said, "It should be the old lady in the palace." ”

Old Mama......

Bai Lilan suddenly remembered that she was the person next to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother always came to find trouble for herself during that time, so she always followed the Queen Mother's side, busy before and after. Looking at her depressed appearance now, I don't think the Queen Mother is going anywhere.

Bai Lilan was suddenly very curious, what would the current queen mother look like, and those harem beauties, and was it really arranged as Nangong Jingchen said?

Walking along the place where the grandmother disappeared just now, Bai Lilan ignored the opposition of the maidservants around her and found the place where the concubine was closed.

It can be said that Nangong Jingchen is still good to these women, and he has set aside two palaces for them to live in with a personal maid. Although the living environment is not as good as before, as a former courtier, being well fed and clothed is already a great gift to them.

Ou Zhilan's eyes were sharp, and she found Bai Lilan, and before everyone noticed this, she rushed over first and whispered to her, "Are you crazy, why did you come here?" Go back! ”

"I haven't done anything wrong, so why should I be weak-hearted?" Bai Lilan unscrupulously bypassed Ou Zhilan and walked inside.

Maybe the grandmother just now had informed the Queen Mother of Baili Lan's news, and the Queen Mother left the room and looked at Bai Li Lan standing in the courtyard, her eyes full of anger.

"Are you here to show off now? Baililan, the mourning family really mistook you, even if you and Chen'er didn't have a chance to become husband and wife, the mourning family still likes you, I hope you can be happy, and also abide by the mourning family's promise to your father and take good care of you. But I don't want you to take revenge, and you actually united with outsiders to overthrow Bac Ninh! Aren't you afraid of retribution if you do this? ”
