Chapter 182: Affection
I don't know if Qingfeng is a person who sleeps lightly, Xue Hainiang didn't dare to turn over and over, she stiffened and lay on the couch, becoming more and more uncomfortable after a long time, so she simply got up and walked to the window and gently opened a gap.
The cold wind poured in, stirring the wisps of green silk in front of the forehead, and intertwined with the long and curly eyelashes from time to time.
"Can't sleep?" Liang Bairou's voice came from behind him, but it was extremely gentle.
Xue Hainiang quickly turned around.
Liang Bairou also recognized the bed, so she barely squinted for a while, but she seemed to hear someone getting up, so she got up.
Liang Bairou smiled lightly, and cautiously walked to the screen to take off two cloaks, one was draped on himself, and the other was put on for Xue Hainiang by walking to the window.
Before Xue Hainiang could say anything, she held her hand lightly and walked out of the room.
She took Xue Hainiang to the corridor. There was a red lantern hanging on the beam, but it was a little brighter than the room.
The view from the corridor is excellent, and when you look up, you can see the jade plate that dots the night.
"The moon is so round tonight. β
Xue Hainiang sighed.
"In a while it will be fifteen, and the last few days will be rounder. Liang Bairou felt a little melancholy, "I originally thought that I would go to Foguang Temple after fifteen years in the imperial city and wait until Chongyang, but I didn't want the queen mother to be so easy to loosen up, but it's okay, now that the body is light, the emperor sent the imperial doctor to accompany him, but it's okay." β
Xue Hainiang sneered, "Since the queen mother got out of the court, she has been pretending to be the image of worshipping Buddha meditation in the palace, and now everyone in the palace knows that the queen mother is obsessed with worshipping Buddha, and she no longer interferes inside and outside the court." β
Liang Bairou's eyes showed confusion, "When people reach their old age, their minds will change, and I don't look at the Queen Mother to worship the Buddha like it is completely contrived." β
Xue Hainiang had no intention of talking to Liang Bairou about such matters, she was not a person from this timeline, and she knew much more than the people on this timeline.
Looking up at the bright moon at night, there was a little melancholy between his eyebrows, "In the past, in the palace, because of the boxy sky and the tall red wall, I couldn't reunite with my family, but now that I am out of the palace, there is no square sky, red walls and green tiles, and the same." β
The palace maids are not as good as the concubines, although they are all in the palace and cannot share their family with their relatives, but the latter can occasionally summon the relatives in the palace to gather with the emperor when they serve the emperor, but the palace maids have become a luxury even to send a letter to their families.
She has been in the palace for nearly three years, and she only received three letters from her family, the first of which was brought to her by her father-in-law in the palace when Mingxi first returned to the house.
When she returned to the house during the Lantern Festival before, she didn't think about going back to the house to visit, but after thinking about it, leaving the palace was a violation of the palace rules, so it would affect the Xue Mansion.
Now that she is unhappy in the palace, her mother must be sad in the house. Although she had already cleaned the backyard of the house for her mother before leaving the house, her father had never liked her mother, and it was difficult to guarantee that she would not be included as a newcomer in the future.
"On the day I return to the palace, I'll go back to Xue Mansion with you. Liang Bairou said suddenly. She is no better than Xue Hainiang, there is still a mother in the house, she has lost her biological mother since she was a child, and now the mansion is just her nominal mother-in-law and father who regards her as a sacrifice.
Xue Hainiang was slightly stunned. After a while, he said, "No." King Qinghui was already prejudiced against me, and he would definitely hold on to this matter. At that time, it will be passed into the ears of the emperor and the queen mother, and I am afraid that my sister will be charged with a crime of ignoring the emperor's grace. β
King Qinghui was afraid that he hated her to the bone, and when he left the palace in the past, he secretly reported to her mortal enemy.
Liang Bairou expressed her doubts, "I haven't asked you yet, what is the festival with His Royal Highness King Qinghui, he is holding ......you like this" She also saw it along the way, at first King Qinghui in front of the palace gate intended to use the palace rules to make things difficult, and when the mountain road was like not seeing the three of them happy, it was he Qinghui King who took the lead in provoking the dispute in the tavern.
Along the way, Liang Bairou almost changed her opinion of Nan Shuke.
The general king, who had fought on the battlefield and had bloody soldiers, would have such a plan with a little girl one day after returning to the field.
If it weren't for the merits in front of her, Liang Bairou would have almost questioned whether this person was as rumored.
Xue Hainiang blinked and said indignantly: "When I was sent by Concubine Xiao to serve the prince of Beichen before, His Royal Highness King Qinghui seemed to have a lot of trouble with the prince of Beichen......, and made it difficult in every way.
Liang Bairou would not question Xue Hainiang's intelligence, and even more, she felt that the word "smart" was not enough to encompass the wisdom and cunning of this villain, and she was resourceful.
Liang Bairou remembered her relationship with the prince of Beichen again, and teased: "This has not been maintained in every possible way, if Beichen Xu fails to grant you a good position in the future, I will not ask you to marry Beiguo." β
Xue Hainiang pretended to smile shyly, but she was a little panicked in her heart.
In order to dispel Liang Bairou's doubts, she lied that she was in love with Beichen Xu......
But it won't be long before the Lord will appear, and he won't be exposed......
Hmm, I don't know if the prince of Beichen can deign to help her for the sake of serving her for a while.
"It's getting late, let's go back to our room early. Xue Hainiang's expression was a little evasive, and falling into Liang Bairou's eyes just confirmed the statement that she was 'in love' with Beichen Xu.
Xue Hainiang held the white wrist with one hand and gently pushed the door with the other, for fear of waking up the breeze in her sleep.
Liang Bairou then entered, naturally closed the door, and also tied the door bolt by the way.
"Hmm-"
A soft sound caused the alarm bell to ring in the hearts of the two of them, and they followed the sound in the dimly lit room.
Since all three of them lived in the same room, Liang Bairou suggested that all the lights be turned off before going to sleep.
At this time, the faint and cold light in the darkness made people's eyelids tremble, and it also made people see the situation where the sound came from.
A black shadow curled up on the collapse, the blade of which was resting on the door of a man's life, and judging from the sound just now, the black shadow covered the man's mouth.
In the guest room, except for Xue Hainiang and Liang Bairou, there was only Qingfeng left, so even if he couldn't see the appearance, he could conclude that the person who was held hostage was undoubtedly Qingfeng.
"Light the candleβ" The dull voice didn't seem like the voice of a normal person, even an old man in his prime.
After a while, the room was a little brighter.
The candlestick was close to the bed where Qingfeng and Xue Hainiang slept on, and because of this, it completely illuminated the appearance of the black shadow.
The cloak covers his face, and he doesn't forget to wrap a black scarf, he is tall, and the only sword at his waist is on Qingfeng's neck at the moment.
