Chapter 283: The Girl's Wish
The house arrest continued endlessly, and when he learned that the group escorting Bai Qige was only three or four towns away from the imperial capital, Yi Chenjing almost went crazy.
It was a bit reckless to send a letter to Ning Xidrunk and ask him to escort Bai Qige all the way into the palace, although the atmosphere in the palace was not quite right, but there was no sign that something had happened to Emperor Yao, and it was still Tao Shihai, the prince of Tao, who was waiting for the message in Ziyun Palace, and even the little eunuch placed by Yi Chenjing in Ziyun Palace said that he had seen Emperor Yao sitting in the inner hall with his own eyes, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it. Yi Chenjing couldn't tell if he was uneasy or worried, in short, he always felt that it was not a wise decision to let Ning Xi get drunk and enter the palace, but he couldn't convince himself not to do it.
It was about Bai Qige's safety, no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't be calm.
Bai Qige's collusion with the enemy country to be revoked from his military post and escorted back to the palace was full of turmoil, the former dynasty officials Mingzhe kept himself quiet and abnormal, but the harem set off a monstrous wave, Jin Zhaoyi was about to go to the fiefdom with the eldest prince, and he still ran to the East Palace every day tirelessly, and his anxiety and worry were not inferior to Su Yan.
"Has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince been turned away, I went to find the queen mother the same, I said that I would not see anything, and now the only one who can go to ask the emperor to take back his life is the queen mother, what can I do......"
"I don't ask her to speak for Qige, as long as she is willing to tell me whether my father was coerced to even issue a holy decree, but she ...... "After all, she is the mother of a country, Yi Chenjing can't say too much, not to mention that he also knows some past grievances and grievances, and there is a reason why the queen refuses to go to Ziyun Palace." However, in this way, the only opportunity to find out about the situation and tone of the Emperor Yaohuang will be broken, and he will be good or good, no matter how anxious he is, he can only sit and wait.
One night in the chaos, an uninvited guest came to visit from the wall, and the strange thing was that this person did not come to find Yi Chenjing, but went straight to Ye Huawan's room.
"Who are you, Brother Zhan's friend," Ye Hua saw that the person was wearing a guard court uniform and a pass token, and immediately thought of the war court as a guard, because he was in the East Palace, so he didn't feel scared but was a little curious.
The man's face was white, and his every move was quite polite: "It's really damn to take the liberty of disturbing Ye Nuxia." Below is Song Mujie, the head of the guards, who is also very familiar with the war guards, and is here for Bai ...... Oh, it's for the crown princess, because the stakes are so high, and I don't know anyone else, so I think of the war guards often mention the 'chivalrous, courageous, young and promising' Ye Nuxia. ”
Ye Huawan has admired Qiao Qingxu since she was a child, but although she runs the famous Yiye Villa in the rivers and lakes, she has not had too deep contact with those people, and when she heard Song Mujie call her a heroine, she immediately had a good impression, and hurriedly moved a chair for Song Mujie to sit down.
"Did Brother Song say that it was Sister Bai's business, wasn't Sister Bai on the way to escort, did something happen again?"
"The question is not on the crown princess, mainly on the emperor's side." Song Mujie wanted to speak and stopped, opened and closed the door and carefully observed it several times, making sure that no one returned to the table and lowered his voice, "Ye Nuxia doesn't know, as the head of the guard, he often has to report the situation in the palace to the emperor, and when he saw the emperor in the past two days, he heard a piece of news and wanted to tell the prince, but the prince was suspicious, and he was a guard in the five emperors, and his Royal Highness the prince would not believe it, so he had no choice but to come to Miss Ye." ”
"Ah, is the emperor going to punish Sister Bai," Ye Huawan was taken aback, and her little face turned white with fright.
Yi Chenjing and Fu Chu were reluctant to let Ye Huawan and Li'er come into contact with the rights and wrongs of the harem of the former dynasty, and never told them too much about power struggles and grievances, Ye Huawan naturally didn't know that Song Mujie was Yi Chenxuan's confidant, seeing that his sincere attitude seemed to be very anxious, he believed it, thinking that he could finally help, and he didn't even want to put Song Mujie into the team of 'his own people'.
Song Mujie didn't say a word about Emperor Yao's situation, only hooked his fingers, and motioned for Ye Huawan to approach: "Ye Nuxia, think of a way, the emperor plans to order death when the crown princess returns, and the holy decree has been prepared,"
"How can this work, is the emperor old and confused," with a cluck, Ye Huawan accidentally kicked over the stool and jumped up, and his voice suddenly rose an octave.
"Be quiet, be quiet, my aunt," Song Mujie hurriedly covered Ye Huawan's mouth, cold sweat flowed on his forehead, "My aunt, this is the palace, the wall has ears, you are not afraid of death, I am still afraid, can't you not publicize it, in case someone hears it and says that you and I slander the holy name, even ten heads are not enough to cut off," Ye Huawan's excitement was really beyond Song Mujie's expectations, and he let go of Ye Huawan, who was nodding desperately, Song Mujie patted his chest and let out a long breath, barely calming himself:" Ye Nuxia can't talk nonsense about this matter, especially His Royal Highness the Prince, he doesn't believe me, and if he can't get it, he will spread it out and say that I revealed the news, I don't want a good person to be bitten if he can't do it. Isn't Ye Nuxia very familiar with the people on the rivers and lakes, why not call some helpers to rob people before the princess returns to the palace, so that no one knows that you did it, and the princess can be spared from death, and when the time comes, if there are any grievances, then check and verify them carefully and then show them to the emperor, firstly, it can clear away the grievances of the princess, and secondly, it can avoid the conflict between His Royal Highness the crown prince and the emperor, isn't it the best of both worlds,"
Ye Huawan tilted her head and thought about it, always feeling that she couldn't bear this heavy responsibility, and couldn't help but show embarrassment: "That's ...... I'll go to Senior Brother and Brother Zhan to discuss. ”
As soon as he heard that Ye Huawan was going to find Zhanting and Fu Chu, Song Mujie hurriedly stopped in front of the door: "Ye Nuxia is so confused, Fu Gongzi is a guest of His Royal Highness the Prince, will you not tell him something, besides, there are many people, so too many people know that it is easy to leak secrets, what should I do if I delay a big event, in my opinion, it is better for Ye Nuxia to do this by herself, you are the owner of Yiye Villa, it shouldn't be a problem to find some people from the rivers and lakes to help, or ......?"
"Say, what to say, just find someone to help, what's so difficult," Ye Huawan's child was most afraid that someone would deliberately provoke her, hearing that Song Mujie seemed to have doubts about the appeal of Yiye Villa, Ye Huawan, the little owner, immediately puffed up his chest and said loudly, "I'm just afraid that Senior Brother and Brother Zhan will worry, and I didn't say that I wanted to tell them." ”
Song Mujie saw that Ye Huawan had no doubts, smiled proudly in his heart, and immediately bowed down and coaxed again: "That's right, Yiye Villa is famous, how can this little thing stump Ye Nuxia, I will arrange all the matters for Ye Nuxia when leaving the palace, how about we leave tomorrow morning,"
"Alas, tomorrow, so soon, you have to go too,"
"The escort team is not far from the imperial capital, and I am afraid that it will be too late to save people if it is delayed." Song Mujie controlled his expression and tried to make his smile look sincere and sincere, and his tone was full of demagogy, "Ye Nuxia, this is a good opportunity for you to make a name for yourself, you must not miss it,"
"Well, I'll wait for you here tomorrow," Ye Huawan replied simply, the girl's heart was filled with restlessness and expressiveness.
In fact, it doesn't matter whether she can be famous in the rivers and lakes, she is still young, and she remembers that the master must first learn the teachings of etiquette and righteousness before she can walk the rivers and lakes, but this time Ye Huawan really doesn't want to miss the opportunity, not only for her favorite sister Bai Qige, but also for another person, in order to make herself useful, to be able to take a look at him and praise him.
At the end of the second watch, as soon as the battle court fell asleep in a wide coat, there was a rustling sound outside the door, and the door was opened carefully, and the petite figure slammed into his arms.
"Brother Zhan, accompany me to count the stars."
Looking up at the dark night sky, Zhan Ting's face was full of sorrow: "Don't make trouble, Yezi, I have to get up early tomorrow to go to the General's Mansion." ”
"For a while, it's not okay for a while, I can't sleep, you accompany me," Ye Huawan shook the sleeves of the battle court and was coquettish and cheating, the essence of the little girl was undoubtedly undoubted, the war court was helpless, so she had to accompany Ye Huawan to sit in the courtyard with the night breeze and cool, yawning for a while before a cup of tea, and her eyes gradually couldn't open.
"Na, Brother Zhan, if I can become a powerful person like Aunt Qingxu, can I also be with you," finally asked with a red face but did not get an answer, Ye Huawan tilted her head slightly in disappointment, and saw Zhan Ting's sleeping eyebrows, clean and peaceful.
The cold little hand tentatively tugged at Zhan Ting's eyebrows, in exchange for a muffled snort, Zhan Ting, who had already fallen asleep, subconsciously moved his head, lay down on the stone table and continued to sleep.
I guess I'm tired from running around during the day. Ye Huawan was a little distressed, and wanted to ask him to get up and go back to the room to sleep, but he was a little reluctant, and he still couldn't give up after turning around the stone table twice. Familiar face, familiar smile, familiar clumsy expression, Zhan Ting was no different from the first time she saw her when she was a child, but there was Qiao Qingxu at that time, and his eyes would not occasionally sneak a lonely look. Now that she has grown up, he has not yet grown old, and the hearty woman who has linked them has returned to her hometown, thinking about it, and feeling sad for a while.
"Brother Zhan, I like you, I will accompany you and take care of you for a lifetime instead of Aunt Qingxu, you wait for me to grow up, and marry me when I grow up," whispered in Zhan Ting's ear, Ye Huawan rubbed her red eyes, barely squeezed out a sweet smile, and then bowed her head slightly, her lips rubbed Zhan Ting's cheeks like a dragonfly.
If it is said that Yi Chenjing was a girl's first love, then Zhan Ting is the first person Ye Huawan likes in the true sense, I have seriously thought about it, considered it, watched him be happy and sorrowful, and watched him fall in love, so he has a place in his heart that no one else can replace.
Covering her mouth to hold back the cry that was about to exit, Ye Huawan bit her lip and shed tears silently for a long time, thinking about who she was going to start walking for soon, the girl who was not deeply involved in the world was afraid, afraid, but more yearning and expectation in her heart.
She doesn't want to be held in her hands anymore, and the people she wants to love her know that when she grows up, she will use her strength to protect the people she loves.
After crying for a long time, pulling up her sleeves and wiping away her tears, Ye Huawan stretched out her hand and twisted it fiercely on Zhan Ting's face, bared her snow-white teeth and smiled at Zhan Ting, who looked dazed and miserable, and slowly retreated to her room, until the tears that poured out again blurred his eyes, and he couldn't even see his movements of rubbing his face clearly.
"Sister Bai, you are also waiting for me, I will save you soon," sat on the ground with her back against the door panel, Ye Huawan hugged her knees and trembled, her little fists clenched the corners of her clothes, scared, and eager to come as soon as possible tomorrow morning.
