Chapter 120: No Return from the Night!
Su Qingmo sat at the table, holding her chin and looking at the beautiful cake in front of her that was carefully depicted by herself, thinking to herself: Wait for him for half an hour, if he hasn't come back in half an hour, then she will go to sleep.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, her sleepiness surged up layer by layer, she couldn't resist it anymore, and her head began to droop down a little bit.
Boom! Her brain finally slammed into the table.
Su Qingmo stroked her aching forehead and glanced around, the room was quiet, the candle flame on the candlestick spit out a long candle heart, the light in the room was bright, but she was still alone.
She looked at the hourglass beside her, and the sand on it had already fallen into most of it, and it turned out that she had slept for an hour. It turned out that she had been waiting for him for nearly two hours unconsciously.
Two Hours......
In modern time, that's four hours......
Looks like he wants to stay up at night.
Su Qingmo's heart was very chaotic at the moment, maybe this was the first time that Liqing had not returned home since she slept in the same room with her, so her mood was a little uneasy.
She raised her hand and touched her bulging abdomen, and after a while, she suddenly sneered, got up and began to rest in her wide clothes.
The strange thing is that she is obviously very sleepy, but she can't fall asleep for a long time, and her whole mind is a mess, and even she doesn't know what she is thinking.
It was just before dawn that she fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up again, I subconsciously reached to the side, and the place I touched was cold.
Feeling depressed, did he really not return all night?
I got up and looked at the cake on the table, it was still intact and there was no trace of being touched.
She got up with a blank face and went to the bathroom to get ready to wash herself.
The water in that basin should have been prepared by them in the morning, but she got up late today, and no matter how hot the water was, it was cold.
Just like a person's heart, no matter how hot it was before, there would be a cold day.
After washing, Su Qingmo came to the dresser again, and saw that the delicate and pale little face in the mirror met her eyes so abruptly.
Her heart was shocked!
The person with a faint look of grief in the mirror...... How could it be her Su Qingmo?
And the man who caused all this has not even appeared in front of her since he left last night.
Maybe he's been caught up in something, she shouldn't be so sensitive. Su Qingmo comforted herself in her heart.
In order to make herself look more energetic, she combed herself with a playful hairstyle for the first time, two hemp flower braids, and then loosely tied them next to her ears and fixed them with two identical bead flowers, and deliberately made a sea of eyebrows in front of her forehead.
Well, it seems that there is really a handsome appearance of four or five young people during the Republic of China.
After tidying up herself, she opened the door and saw Qingyi guarding the door, so she smiled softly at him and ordered, "It's late today, bring me breakfast." ”
Qing Yi's eyes were slightly stunned by the bright smile on her face, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, and when he came back to his senses, Su Qingmo had already entered the house. Only the door that hadn't been closed reminded him that what he had just seen was not an illusion.
Qing Yi thought stupidly in his heart: It turns out that the princess is so beautiful when she laughs.
I remembered that the princess had just gotten up, and she hurried to work before breakfast.
After a while, he entered the house with a tray.
Seeing him come in, the shallow smile on Su Qingmo's face never fell.
She took a bowl of porridge, held a spoon in her hand and began to drink the porridge, and as soon as she took a sip, the smile on her face gradually fell.
The taste of this porridge is no, it is not from his hands.
It's not that her taste buds are strong, it's that the taste of this porridge is very different from the taste of the porridge she has drunk before.
My heart was slightly sour, it turned out that I had been taken care of for a long time, and I would have this terrible sequelae. I don't know if she leaves him in the future, she will lose even the ability to be self-reliant.
"Princess......" Qing Yi saw that her expression was a little strange, and she was a little apprehensive.
Su Qingmo then remembered that there was still a Qingyi beside her, so she quickly showed a light smile again, and continued to drink porridge as if nothing happened.
After a while, Su Qingmo finished breakfast, and saw that Qing Yi's face was still full of words, so he laughed: "Qing Yi, if you have anything to say, I think you can't hold it back." ”
Qingyi's face turned red, and he quickly shook his head: "It's okay, it's okay." The princess has already finished breakfast, so her subordinates have packed up these things?"
"Well, I'm sorry for you. Su Qingmo nodded and said politely.
Qing's hand moved again, and then he smiled and didn't speak.
It wasn't until he left the room that he realized that something seemed wrong with the princess today, and her attitude towards him just now seemed to be more polite than before.
She had never said the word trouble to him before.
How can this be good, the master has not come back yet, what if the princess hears something and makes the princess misunderstood?
Su Qingmo still sat in the room in the same posture as before, and the smile on her face disappeared as soon as Qing Yi left Qing.
I still remember a few times when he used to come back late when he went out to do business, but at that time, no matter how late he came back, he would still come back to prepare meals for her before the meal.
But the taste of the porridge just now proved that he hadn't been back since last night, or maybe he had been in this Qingchen Hall all along, just staying somewhere and not wanting to see her for the time being.
Very well, is the big tiger who has been disguised as a docile kitten finally going to regain his nature?
Finally, everything is no longer centered on her, and you have her in mind?
Su Qingmo raised her hand to cover her chest, closed her eyes, and after a while, the corners of her mouth curved into a beautiful arc, fortunately, it was still there, but the muscles of its movement seemed to have retreated a little, it didn't matter, give her time, she could always adjust.
Time seems to pass quickly, and three days have passed in the blink of an eye.
Today is the fourth day, Su Qingmo put down the book in his hand, glanced at the sky outside the window, and in a blink of an eye, the sky was approaching night again.
She said secretly in her heart: it was dark, and it was time for her to have dinner again.
Sure enough, half an hour passed, and Qingyi entered the house again with food.
She glanced at the dishes on the plates as usual, well, they were still as light as ever.
But she knew that the dishes that looked like they were made in the same way were very different.
But it didn't matter, although the chef who prepared her meal now was not as skilled as the man, but it still tasted good, at least not to the point where it was difficult for her to swallow.
When Su Qingmo was about to pick up the chopsticks and start eating, Qingyi finally couldn't help but speak.
"Princess......
Su Qingmo raised her eyes and smiled at him: "What's wrong?" His subordinates didn't stop, took a bowl and filled himself with a bowl of bone soup, and began to drink it in small sips.
"Master, he ......" Speaking of this, Qingyi paused with a sad face.
Su Qingmo didn't raise her eyes to look at him this time, but kept her head down and drank the thick soup very intently, but her drooping eyes trembled a few times unconsciously.
This Qingyi hadn't told her anything about that man for a few days, but today he suddenly spoke, what could it be because?
"Princess, no...... No matter what happens in the future, please believe in the master's sincerity to you, any rumors are just rumors, the so-called hearing is false, seeing is believing, please be sure to ......"
The spoon and the porcelain bowl made a crisp sound, Su Qingmo put down the spoon and took the chopsticks instead, interrupting Qing Yi's words while eating: "Qing Yi, what do you want to say to me?" Her tone was a little careless, not at all as angry as Qing Yi imagined, and questioned his appearance in a loud voice.
Could it be that she hadn't understood what she was saying?
Qing Yi took a deep breath: "Princess, my subordinates want to say that the master has been thinking about you all these days. ”
"Well, I see. Su Qingmo nodded to indicate that she had understood. "Can you let me finish this dinner in peace now?"
After hearing her words, Qingyi hurriedly said, "Princess, please use it slowly." Then she frowned, the princess didn't seem to care about her master's affairs at all, was this good or bad?
This night, Su Qingmo was lying on the bed, stroking her abdomen with one hand, and suddenly the corners of her mouth showed a heartfelt smile, and then she was heard whispering: "You little naughty, haven't you practiced boxing in your mother's belly again?" Now let's settle down a little bit, okay? Mother's belly has been kicked and hurt by your little fists and feet. ”
I don't know if her words worked, but the little guy in the womb really settled down.
Su Qingmo's face showed a satisfied smile: "Sure enough, it is a good baby of my mother's mother, and I even know that I feel sorry for my mother, how can I be like your father who has no conscience, who doesn't show up for a few days, and I don't know if I am sleeping in a gentle township." Baby, if you are a boy, when you grow up, don't learn from your father's irresponsible behavior, don't come back for a few days and don't know to give your mother a message, be careful that your future lady will run away with others because of your careless and irresponsible behavior. ”
As soon as the words fell, there was another burst of pain in her abdomen, and she hurriedly begged for mercy: "Ouch, don't kick, don't kick, can't my mother say it......"
The next day, after Su Qingmo finished his lunch, he decided to walk around in this Qingchen Palace.
As he walked, he vaguely heard someone making noise at the gate.
Hmm, who could it be? Dare to run to the Qingchen Temple to spread wild, don't you want to live?
Su Qingmo gathered the fox fur jacket draped over her shoulders, covered the bulging belly of her lower body, and walked over in search of the voice.
"Bold! You dare to block my way, this time it was the Queen Mother who asked me to come over and deliver medicinal herbs to Miss An Yun. And it was also approved by the nod of the National Teacher. Are you trying to disobey the will of the National Teacher and the Empress Niangniang in such a way now?"
Su Qingmo, who originally wanted to go out to inquire about the incident, suddenly stopped after hearing the words of the National Teacher. Ducking behind a large tree on the side of the road, he watched coldly at the protrusion that took place in the doorway.
The woman...... Su Qingmo narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she was the maid beside the bewitching Queen Mother. When she and Liqing went to the Snow Moon Hall that time, it was this woman who poured her a cup of tea with ingredients.
It seems that it should be Xia Lianyun's confidant, so why did she come here today?
I heard her say just now that she was a national teacher, could it be that she bravely entered the Qingchen Hall today, is it related to that man?
Even when the two iron-masked guards heard Qiu'er's threatening words, they had no intention of putting away the spears that had been intercepted at the door.
Still said coldly: "The master has an order! Anyone who wants to break into the Qingchen Hall without a token, regardless of his background, will be executed!"
"Presumptuous! I'm the one next to the Queen Mother!"
"No matter who you are, if you don't have a token, you must be put to death!"
"You!" Qiu'er's face turned blue, but she couldn't help them. I could only shout at the door: "Miss Anyun, Miss Anyun, the Queen Mother has sent you medicinal herbs." "Hmph, she didn't believe it, she shouted like this, and that An Yun dared to hide inside and not come out after hearing it.
Medicinal herbs?Su Qingmo raised her eyebrows, then Xia Lianyun really prepared all those medicinal materials?
"Miss Anyun, you should come out quickly, if you don't come out again, then the slave can take the medicinal herbs back to the Snow Moon Palace. ”
Bring it back?
As soon as Su Qingmo heard this, she dodged out directly from behind the big tree, tightened her jacket, and walked slowly towards the door.
When she came to the door, she pretended to ask the guard, "Who was calling me just now?"
"My subordinates have seen the princess!"
Su Qingmo waved his hand: "Get up and talk back." ”
"Princess Xie, back to the princess, it was ...... just now"
"Miss Anyun, it was me just now...... Ahh The whole person fell out a few meters away in an instant.
I saw that Qiu'er vomited a mouthful of blood at that time, which shows how much strength the guard used.
And the dozen or so guards and palace maids brought behind her saw that none of them dared to move, and they all turned pale with fright, and took several steps back.
One of the guards first gave the guard who kicked the man a satisfied look, and then said to Qiuyun with a cold face: "Bold! A slave, seeing that the princess not only did not kneel, but also dared to call herself the master!
"I ......" Qiu'er spit out a mouthful of old blood when she heard this, and changed her words forcibly under the forced gaze of the iron-faced guard: "Slave, slave and maid are the most powerful palace maids beside the Queen Mother, you are so bold......"
The two guards didn't even frown when they heard this, and the guard who kicked the person stared at her with cold eyes and said: "We just look at the people who are beside the Queen Mother, so we are allowed to stand at the door of the Qingchen Hall now, if it is someone next to me, I can take your life with the kick just now!"
"You ...... You ......"
"Alas...... It's too violent for you to do this, you're just a little girl, so why embarrass people so much. At this time, Su Qingmo on the side suddenly reprimanded the two guards, and then walked towards Na Qiu'er with a worried face, wanting to help her, but feeling that this would be a loss of her identity.
Then he instructed the palace maids standing beside him, "Didn't you also come from the Snow Moon Palace? Why did your companion fall to the ground, and I didn't see you come forward to help her? Is this your sisterhood in the past?"
Sure enough, when Qiu'er heard this, she immediately turned her head and glared viciously at the palace maids who had been stunned.
The palace maids were swept away by her cruel eyes, and they couldn't help but shudder, and one of the palace maids was a little clever, and hurriedly walked over to help her up.
Su Qingmo on the side quietly moved her foot and stepped on the skirt of the palace maid, but the palace maid helped Qiu'er to get up and fell to the ground again, and she also pressed on Qiu'er's body, who was seriously injured. Qiu'er, who was under pressure, couldn't help but wail a few times again, originally five points of internal injury, it is estimated that it has increased to eight points of internal injury by such a pressure.
The palace maid hurriedly got up, knelt on the side with a panicked face and confessed: "Sister Qiu'er, the slave maid didn't mean it, the slave maid was ...... just now"
"Shut up, are you all rubbish?" Qiu'er endured the pain and yelled at the little palace maid, and then turned her head to look at the other palace maids.
The palace maids hurriedly ran over and helped her up.
At this time, Qiu'er's face was covered with blood, but she still came to Su Qingmo with a calm face to complete her mission.
"Miss Anyun, the medicinal herbs that the Queen Mother prepared for you are being placed in that carriage at the moment. I believe you can also see that the carriage is the special driver of the National Teacher, you see if you want someone to take out the medicinal materials in the carriage first, and the slave maid will take the carriage back to the Snow Moon Hall earlier to return to the National Teacher and the Queen Mother. ”
------Off topic------
The cold is still not good, my head is groggy all day, and I have no energy to do anything.
Alas...... It's depressing.
Dear dear, you must pay more attention to your body, the taste of a cold is really uncomfortable.
