666.Chapter 666
Nangong Lizhu and Nangong Jinhong, the father and daughter, were obviously a gifted reunion yesterday, but they didn't seem to have a good conversation, so it seems that there should be some kind of disagreement, and in the disagreement, I was also mentioned?
Shouldn't they be single-minded about me? Why is there a disagreement?
Looking at my tightly knit brows, the center of my eyebrows was twisted into a Sichuan character, Xiaofuzi had been standing next to him quietly, and at this time he seemed to be a little puzzled: "My lord? β
ββ¦β¦β
"Isn't that good?"
ββ¦β¦β
I didn't know for a moment whether to answer him.
In my opinion, Nangong father and daughter are my opponents, if they have any differences, it will naturally be beneficial to me, but I don't know why, since I saw Nangong Jinhong by the carriage before I left the palace last time, and heard what he said, and later I was attacked with Pei Yuanhao in the carriage, and these days Nangong Lizhu has not moved at all, it always makes me feel an inexplicable sense of unease.
It's as if I'm a frog boiled in warm water.
I don't know when the seemingly peaceful surroundings will boil, it will be hot, it will engulf me like a flame.
But I didn't know how to say this qiΔ, so I just forced a smile: "It's nothing." Xiaofuzi, you have worked hard. β
"Your Excellency is serious."
After saying that, he saluted me and was about to leave, but just as he walked to the door, I saw his footsteps stagnate, and it turned out to be Shui Xiu walking in from the outside.
As soon as the two of them met, Xiao Fuzi didn't say anything, but Shui Xiu's face froze, and he immediately snorted with his nose, as if he didn't see the person in front of him, and strode past him. When he walked into the house, he said loudly, "My lord, I'm back." β
I looked at these two young people, and I didn't know how to persuade them, and what to persuade them.
So he could only say perfunctorily: "Oh, where have you been?" Mama just looked for you everywhereβ"
"I went to Du Yan just now!"
Xiao Fuzi was about to leave with his head down, but when he heard this, his footsteps stopped again, but he didn't look back, and stood at the door a little stiffly.
I was also stunned: "Huh? β
Shui Xiu didn't care whether I asked or not, and said loudly: "My lord, no wonder I couldn't find him a while ago, it turned out that the emperor sent them out of the palace on a mission, and as soon as he came back today, he came to see me." β
ββ¦β¦β
I subconsciously looked at the door, and Xiaofuzi's originally not tall back was slightly rickety.
"I wanted to give it back to him, but this time, I figured it out."
"Figured it out? What did you figure out? β
Shui Xiu glanced at the door out of the corner of his eye, and said loudly: "He gave it to me, I'll just take it, and I don't care what others do so much." β
"Water Show ......"
I frowned, and was about to say something, when I saw Xiaofuzi leave without looking back.
At this time, I was also a little helpless: "Shui Xiu, how can you say this in front of Xiaofuzi." β
The girl was still a little angry, looked back at the back that quickly disappeared at the gate, and bit her lower lip: "Didn't the adults tell me that I can't do it with him." β
"That's true, but you shouldn't do it."
"......" Shui Xiu turned his face a little angrily and didn't speak.
I still said patiently: "Shui Xiu, even if you and Xiaofuzi can't do it, don't become enemies." β
Shui Xiu gritted his teeth and said, "Anyway, if he treats me like this, I will be an enemy with him." β
"You-"
Maybe in my eyes, Shui Xiu has always been that impulsive and fun-loving, babbling girl every day, I even only see her as a child, until Du Yan gave her the chain, which made me suddenly realize that she is not a child, she is also a girl who can love and accept other people's feelings.
The people in this palace, guarding the towering and insurmountable walls around them, are too lonely, and the palace maids and eunuchs will also have food in private, these two children, I believe they don't have any overstepping behavior, but what about the heart?
For so many years, even if we were trapped in the cold palace, Xiaofuzi would not give up, maybe he was a better partner than a normal man, or even a high-ranking and powerful person.
However, is this really good for the water show?
Looking at her pale and stubborn face, I was speechless for a while, just at this time, Mama Wu had already walked in with hot soup, and her face changed when she saw Shui Xiu, I was worried that she was going to scold, so I hurriedly found a word and said: "By the way, you just said that Du Yan and they have a task out of the palace, what are you doing?" β
Shui Xiu didn't seem to want to mention that person more, and said with a cold face: "That person, I didn't have a few words to ask him." β
"Oh......"
"But I heard that it was like going to the south."
"Oh?" My spirit froze: "The emperor sent them south?" β
Seeing me like this, Shui Xiu became a little serious, seemed to realize something, and said, "My lordβ"
I hurriedly said, "Did you say where you went?" β
"I heard that it's Yangzhou over there."
"Do what?"
"I heard that I want to cross the river."
"Crossing the river?"
I felt something -- crossing the river. As early as when we were still in the Juma River Valley, the disobedient forces in the south had already built a naval camp on the south bank of the Yangtze River, obviously preparing for a future war.
Shui Xiu seemed to realize something at this time, and while struggling to recall, he muttered, "I seem to ...... It seems that I vaguely heard them saying that they were going to cross the river and find someone-ah! β
She suddenly reacted: "My lord! β
I sat there and didn't speak, just an uncontrollable tremor of my hand on the table, knocking over the bowl of hot soup that Mama Wu had just put in my hand.
There was a loud bang in the room, not loud, but somewhat startling.
Wu Mama and Shui Xiu were shocked, and hurriedly came up to clean up, my hand didn't have time to retract, and was splashed on the back of my hand by the hot soup, and immediately burned red, Shui Xiu hurriedly took my hand, pulled me to the wooden frame and soaked in the cold water in the basin, and asked, "My lord, are you okay?" Does it hurt? β
I seemed completely unconscious, just standing silently.
Mama Wu quickly cleaned up over there, only to come over to see, the back of my hand has been scalded out of a blister, a large area of skin red and swollen, she looked left and right and couldn't find the tools to take advantage of, so she took me to their room, took out a needle from the sewing box to pass the fire, carefully picked out the open water, and carefully bandaged me with gauze.
They did this, but I didn't seem to react, only the place on my chest, which jumped suddenly, as if it was about to burst.
Go south, cross the river, and find someone......
Leaving the ......
Leave!
She is now, in the south of the Yangtze River, on the south bank of the Yangtze River, behind the mighty naval barracks, on the other side of the vast Yangtze River!
No wonder these days, Shui Xiu said that Du Yan could not be found; No wonder these days, Pei Yuanhao has never come to me again, it turns out that ......
Li'er, he told me last time that he had a clue about Li'er, and this time he was going to find her!
Thinking of this, I raised my head to look at Shui Xiu, thinking that I was quite calm, but as soon as I opened my mouth, I found that my voice had already trembled: "Then, did he say they found it?" β
Shui Xiu was stunned for a moment, and stammered: "He, he didn't say it." β
ββ¦β¦β
"I ...... I didn't think about it that much, I-I wouldn't have had anything to say to him......"
ββ¦β¦β
"My lord, it's me who is not ......"
"It's fine."
This time, I calmed down first.
Du Yan was already silent, Pei Yuanhao didn't even reveal the news of sending them south, and naturally he didn't plan to let others know about this matter, even if Shui Xiu really asked, he would definitely not say much; But if I really found it, this news shouldn't have been mentioned to me by Shui Xiu inadvertently.
Thinking of this, my head, which had just been a little hot, also cooled down.
Although Mama Wu never said anything, she already knew the reason, looking at my somewhat gloomy face, she said softly: "My lord, let's go back and rest first." The slave and maid brought another bowl of hot soup to the adult. β
I had no appetite at this time, but when she said so, I could only be helped back by them. As soon as I entered the room, I felt that the atmosphere in the room was not quite right.
Still Shui Xiu's eyes were sharp, and when she saw it at once, she suddenly knelt down in fright: "Your Majesty!" β
I was shocked in my heart, and as soon as I looked up, I saw Pei Yuanhao sitting on the edge of the bed.
There was no light in the room, his face was not very good in the dim light, and his heavy tired expression almost spread into the cold air, he looked up at us, and only waved his hand: "All down." β
The two of them glanced at each other, and they both obediently retreated, and Mama Wu also closed the door.
Usually, I don't like to be alone in a room with him, but today is different, the heart that is always beating almost jumps out of my chest at this moment, I stood at the door for a while, and almost wanted to step over, when I saw him raise his hand and beckon to me: "Come here." β
I walked up to him step by step.
Just as I got closer, I could feel the heavy breath on his body, which made my breath tense, and he sat on the edge of the bed, with his hands on his knees, and raised his head to look at me: "I haven't come to see you these days, I've worked hard for you." β
Laborious...... I did.
Hearing this made my heart tremble.
I don't know what the hard work he refers to, and I can't think about it at this time, my whole body and one heart are only one person.
Thinking of this, I finally spoke: "Your Majesty, leave ...... son"
Before he could finish speaking, his hand reached over and took my hands.
I subconsciously wanted to withdraw my hand, but as soon as I moved, I felt his hand clenched hard, gently pulled to his chest, he lowered his head, and rested his chin on my hand.
The feeling of heaviness spreads from the skin to the heart.
He slowly raised his head in my hands, his eyes looking straight at me, almost looking into my heart: "I will find another way." β
ββ¦β¦β
Think of another way.
What else can you do?
Just now, Shui Xiu said that Du Yan wanted to cross the river, that is, they were not actually able to cross.
Perhaps, it is precisely because the water army camp built by the rebellious forces on the river has played a role, and even such elite people can't go, so nothing else is left to him.
Unless-
My heart trembled suddenly, and I looked at Pei Yuanhao with a look of panic-
Unless- there is a real fight.
Unless, the imperial court really used troops against the south; Unless, defeating the disobedient forces of the South; Unless, all the six provinces in the south of the Yangtze River are recovered, can we get back Li'er?
Thinking of this, I trembled slightly, and slowly squatted down to look at him: "Your Majesty, do you want to use soldiers?" β
He didn't speak.
But, at such a close distance, I immediately saw a sharp, pinpoint-like light in his eyes in the dim light.
I know that he is not a person who can forbear, but he was a little wolf by the civil rebellion in Jiangnan a few days ago, but this is not the attitude he should have, no matter who the opponent is, how strong he is, and what he can do, he has only one goal.
It's about making yourself the last one standing.
Before he announced the ban on the sea and cut off the military routes in the south, those are just a palliative measure, and the only way to really draw money from the bottom of the kettle is to completely eradicate those disobedient forces, but if that is the case, Jiangnan will fall into a war.
My departed son will also fall into the flames of war!
