Chapter 082: Temporary Errand
Since the last poison hair, Baoqing has spent more time asleep, and the weakness in her bones has forced her to recuperate through deep sleep. When she woke up, it was already dark, and Baoqing opened her eyes to find Zhu'er sitting in front of her bed, her eyes deep, but she was looking at her without focus.
Zhu Er's mind has become heavier and heavier recently, she usually can't hide her thoughts the most, and she will talk to her about anything, but Zhu Er has not communicated with Baoqing for a long time.
Holding Zhu'er's hand, Zhu'er woke up like a dream.
She gestured and asked Baoqing if she was hungry, and Baoqing shook her head. Baoqing's appetite has always been bad during her illness, Zhu Er waved her hand and asked her if she wanted to invite Meng Changqing, but Baoqing still shook her head. Zhu Er asked her if she was thirsty again, and got up to pour water for her, but Bao Qing hurriedly grabbed her arm: "Zhu Er, I don't need anything, can you talk to me." ”
Zhu'er nodded and sat back on the edge of the bed.
"Zhu'er, in this world, apart from my brother, you are my dearest relative. ”
Hearing this, Zhu Er was slightly stunned.
"I remember what you looked like when my father gifted you to me. I think this is fate, just one glance, I feel that you are kind, a person worthy of entrusting your life. You are my secret guard, and you are also my playmate who grew up with, although you are a slave girl bought back by your father, but in my eyes, I have always regarded you as my sister. I have never regarded you as a slave, not for a moment. ”
The dormitory was dim, the candlelight was flickering, and Bao Qing couldn't see her expression. She lowered her head and seemed to be listening carefully,
"I let you enter the palace with me so that I can find you a good home and let you completely get rid of the status of a slave. So, if you have a favorite, you can tell me. ”
Zhu Er shook her head, already understanding what she meant, and anxiously gestured that she would not leave.
"You won't be by my side for the rest of your life, you're a girl, and you're going to get married sooner or later. Baoqing asked cautiously: "But Yu Xi, do you like it?"
Zhu Er's eyes widened, with a look of disbelief, and then, she stood up and vigorously denied that no, she and Yu Xi were just ordinary relationships.
"Then why are you hiding from Yu Xi? I can see that something must have happened between you and Yu Xi, in fact, Yu Xi is a good person, but he is a eunuch after all, marry you to him, I am really ...... But if you like it, I won't break you up, I will be the master for you, and I ask the emperor to let you go out of the palace and live a good ......life."
Zhu Er suddenly hugged Baoqing and interrupted her slightly flustered speech. Bao Qing felt the trembling of her body, because she was holding her tightly, she couldn't see whether she was crying or laughing.
"Zhu'er, what's wrong with you. ”
"Zhu'er, did I say something wrong. ”
"Zhu'er, is he bullying you, if he bullies you, I will immediately ask Su Wen to arrest him and put him in Huayue Palace for you to dispose of!"
Baoqing was very worried, she knew Zhu'er's sensitivity, so she didn't dare to speak easily. It's just that Zhu'er has been in a low mood recently, on weekdays, she and Baoqing are inseparable, but now she often can't find anyone, and all kinds of abnormalities make her very worried.
Zhu'er's sign language is something that only she can fully understand, and she is the only one who can untie her knot.
Therefore, Baoqing only opened this mouth today.
Could it be that she did something wrong again? Did she make Zhu'er sad?
After a long time, Zhu Er slowly let go of her.
Zhu'er's eyes were red, as if they were dripping blood.
"Zhu'er ......"
Zhu Er stood up and gestured hard, she would never leave Baoqing, never for the rest of her life.
Baoqing was stunned, "But you always have to get married and have your own home." ”
Zhu Er shook her head vigorously again, and then quickly ran out of the dormitory.
Baoqing, who was left alone in the dormitory, was both moved and complicated.
"Silly Zhu'er, do you know that I don't have long to live. ”
Bao Qing's eyes were red, and the retrograde air flow in his abdomen was calmed down little by little, and a layer of fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
"If I don't give you a good place to go, how can I leave in peace......"
......
Bao Qing only learned about Xiao Cheng's summoning of Zhan Bei into the palace the next day. It stands to reason that while the Zhan family was investigating, Xiao Cheng should have snubbed the Zhan family, and he would never be called urgently, unless something terrible happened.
Yesterday, she was sleepy, and when she woke up, Xiao Cheng had already left, and she heard Su Wen say that Xiao Cheng left in a hurry after receiving an urgent front-line battle report from Gao De.
Bao Qing was nervous.
Isn't there something wrong with my brother?
She hesitated for a long time and decided to go to Xuan Zhengdian to inquire, although this was not in accordance with the rules, but it was about her brother, and she couldn't pretend to be indifferent.
Just about to go out, Xiao Cheng had already come to Huayue Palace one step ahead of her.
"Is there something wrong with the emperor?"
Her anxious Xiao Cheng saw it in her eyes, waved her hand, and Gao De immediately presented a fold.
"Just look at it. ”
Baoqing opened it and looked at it, it turned out to be an emergency report from the front line. She immediately closed it and put it on the desk: "The emperor said that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and the concubines can't look at this thing." ”
"I said you can see it, and you will see it. ”
"A gentleman's words, a word, the emperor's words are a holy decree, since he said it, how can he change it at will. If the concubine is sensible, she will not break the rules. ”
Seeing Baoqing's angry appearance, Xiao Cheng was not only angry, but also a little excited. She was like this, but she reused Mu Zhaorong for him, and she tasted it......
The few people who were waiting on the side were all in a cold sweat. Especially Su Wen, she was so anxious that she only said in her heart: Niangniang, the emperor treats you so gently, don't look for awkwardness, and don't give the emperor a son.
Xiao Cheng also felt a little embarrassed, and ordered all these eyesores to retreat, so only the two of them were left in the hall.
"Okay, if you don't read it, then I'll read it to you. After speaking, he opened the fold and read it slowly.
Baoqing teased the parrot and pretended not to care, but her ears were erect, and when she heard it all, she didn't have the heart to be angry.
It turned out that the Montedan Rebellion had just eased somewhat, and a general came to report that the Hunan Kingdom and the Underworld Kingdom had also gathered. There are three vassal states around Eastern Chu, namely Montedan in the northwest, Hunan in the north, and the underworld in the east. Over the years, the underworld and Eastern Chu have always been friendly, and the exchanges between Hunan and Eastern Chu have not been broken. Now, large armies from both countries are gathering at the border gates, and the details have also reported that they are secretly casting weapons inside......
"Could it be that they want to jointly attack my Dongchu?!" Baoqing's expression was solemn: "No, it won't." Not to mention that the Hunan Kingdom and the Underworld are not in the climate, there is still Si Luan among them, and there are countless mountains and dangerous ravines in Si Luan's heavy land, even if the two parties want to join forces, they can't overcome the obstacles. ”
Xiao Cheng nodded: "I thought so at first, but the battle reports here are becoming more and more frequent day by day, and it seems that there must be a battle." Siluan Fortress is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it is not completely impossible to attack. They are sure that the main force of our Eastern Chu is in Montdan, and the domestic army must be empty, so they plan to make a mess. ”
