Chapter 40: Preparing to leave the palace
The huge capital, the quiet night.
In the Prime Minister's Mansion. Yu Nian sat quietly in the room, looking at the moonlight outside the window, and bursts of coolness seeped into his bones. He looked at the carved buildings in the courtyard, and at this moment he felt that all this was like an illusory bubble, and it would disappear when he reached out and touched it. Thinking of Chen Hao'er, the last time we met in the palace, her eyes were unfamiliar, her tone was alienated, and her attitude towards Yu Nian was already like two people. Yu Nian suddenly missed a little nostalgia for the time when he was in college, those simple, carefree and happy days, never needed to walk on thin ice, no calculations and conspiracies, and no one even died casually.
So, is there any way to go back? Is there any way to get back into the twenty-first century?
Imperial Palace, Qifeng Palace. "Your Majesty, didn't you carry this jade pendant with you?" Du Zhenhe looked at the confused Chen Hao'er and smiled, "Yes." "Then why did you give it to me?" "When you come back from victory, give it back to me." "Cut, I knew you wouldn't be so generous." Chen Feng'er stuck out her tongue and looked at the jade plate in her hand, "This jade card looks very valuable, Your Majesty, you better take it back, I can't afford to pay if I lose it." Du Zhenhe shook his head, looked at the night in the distance, and said in a low voice, "Take it." Chen Hao'er's hand stopped in mid-air, looking at Du Zhenhe, whose expression began to become serious again, and had no choice but to put the jade pendant in his pocket.
General's Palace. Zhao Xuechi lay on the couch and tossed over and over and couldn't sleep. Feng'er won't have an accident, according to her temperament, she will definitely be unable to help but beg the emperor immediately. If the emperor punishes Feng'er, then no, it doesn't mean that I hurt her. Oops, good headache. Zhao Xuechi hugged his head in pain. I don't know if he entered the palace after Yu Ying, and after going for so long, something will happen to his father, hey. It's better to stay in the army, without these trivial troubles, practice martial arts every day, joke with your brothers, and live a simple life.
The night passed.
When Chen Hao'er woke up, Du Zhenhe had already gone to the court. "Mother, you're awake!" Ah Chun pushed the door in, just in time to see Chen Hao'er sitting up, "Ah Chun, don't call me Niangniang." Ah Chun was stunned, "What's the matter, Niangniang?" Chen Hao'er sat on the edge of the bed, supported her body with her hands, and moved her neck, "I will be a general again from today." Ah Chun trotted over with a copper basin and handed the handkerchief to Chen Hao'er, "Niangniang, what's wrong with you?" Chen Feng'er took the handkerchief and wiped her face, "I told the emperor that the emperor would let me go to war." "What?" Ah Chun didn't hold the copper basin steady, and the water spilled on the ground, "Niangniang, you, are you going out of the palace to fight?" Chen Hao'er nodded, "Yes, not only did I go to war, but the emperor also promoted me, not General Fuyuan, I am now General Jingguo." Ah Chun squatted on the ground to clean up the water stains, "Niangniang, the slave maid should go and ask the imperial doctor to come and take a look at you." Chen Hao'er pouted, "Ah Chun, I'm not talking nonsense." ”
"The Divine Decree has arrived!" The shrill voice of the eunuch outside the door came. Chen Hao'er patted Ah Chun's shoulder, "Look, this is coming." Then he took his robe, put it on his body, and ran out the door.
"Minister... The concubine received the order. "Fengtian carrier, Emperor Zhao said, Chen Huyan's daughter Chen Hao'er, brave and good at fighting, very good at strategy. Now Du Liang and the two countries went to war, and Chen Hao'er was specially named the general of Jingguo, and the amnesty before the expedition could temporarily live in the Qifeng Palace. Chin this. "Obey the order!" Chen Hao'er took the holy decree with both hands and held it in her arms like a baby. "General, the emperor said that you can continue to live in the Qifeng Palace, if it is inconvenient, you can go back to the General's Mansion." The eunuch said. "I'll go back to the General's Mansion, go back to the General's Mansion! Thank you, father-in-law! Great work! Chen Hao'er immediately answered.
After the eunuch left, Chen Hao'er looked at the stunned Ah Chun and laughed, "Believe it now, little Ah Chun, do you want to ask me for a doctor?" Ah Chun looked at Chen Hao'er in confusion, "Niangniang... Oh no, General, what did you say to the Emperor last night? Chen Hao'er leaned close to Ah Chun's ear, "Secret! ”
"Hello! Boom! A familiar voice came from outside. Chen Hao'er ran out excitedly, "Sister Xuechi!! Zhao Xuechi looked at the lively Chen Hao'er and breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, you're fine, it's okay, I'm worried about death." Chen Hao'er held Zhao Xuechi, "Sister Xuechi, you came just in time, what's the matter, what are you worried about me?" Zhao Xuechi looked at Chen Hao'er and said, "It's not that I'm afraid that you will be blamed by the emperor for making noise about going to war, I thought about it, I was too impulsive, I shouldn't have sent you the news without thinking, I didn't think that you are a fool, if something happens, how can it be good." Chen Hao'er pulled Zhao Xuechi to sit under the porch, "I'm fine, Sister Xuechi, I have good news for you!" Zhao Xuechi sighed, "What good news can there be now, it's good that there is no bad news." Chen Hao'er handed the holy decree in her hand to Zhao Xuechi, "Well, you can see for yourself." Zhao Xuechi glanced at Chen Hao'er, took the holy decree, and carefully unfolded it.
"Hello! Are you sure! It's not that I'm dazzled! Zhao Xuechi excitedly grabbed Chen Hao'er's arm. Chen Hao'er dodged painfully, "Sister Xuechi, your strength is too great, you want to strangle me." Of course it's true, and this decree can still be false. Zhao Xuechi clenched his fist and waved it into the air, "Great!" We're back together again! After a pause, he looked at Chen Hao'er worriedly, and whispered, "Hao'er, you won't forge the holy decree, right?" Chen Hao'er's face twisted together, "Sister Xuechi, when did you start thinking so much, how could I forge the holy decree, this is genuine, you see, the talismans have been sent to me." Zhao Xuechi nodded, "That's good, that's good." It's not that these recent events have made me suspicious, so it's better to return to the battlefield as soon as possible. Chen Hao'er nodded and agreed, "I didn't expect the emperor to agree so easily, I was ready to use a bitter plan, but I didn't use anything, and I was named a general of Jingguo." Zhao Xuechi held Chen Hao'er's hand, "Hao'er, the emperor is really good to you." Chen Hao'er nodded, "It's not bad, by the way, Sister Xuechi, how do you know that the emperor is going to blame me." Zhao Xuechi hesitated for a moment, and said cautiously, "Yes... It's more than a year. "More than one year?" Chen Hao'er let go of Zhao Xuechi's hand. "Feng'er, that's the case, that day Li Shaowei came to me and told me that Yu Nian recommended me to fight in the court, and I thought that he was the prime minister, maybe it would be useful to speak in front of the emperor, so I thought about going to him to help, but he listened to what I said, was shocked, and was in a hurry to pull me into the palace to save you." "But, Sister Xuechi, didn't you come to me alone last night?" Zhao Xuechi nodded, "I was leaving the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Yu Nian was called by his father, as if his father was seriously ill and had something to explain, so he hurried over." I waited outside the door for a long time, but he didn't come out, so I came to look for you myself, but the emperor was here, so I had to come early this morning. ”
"I see." Chen Hao'er nodded, "Don't think about it so much, Sister Xuechi, come and help me pack my things, let's get ready to leave the palace!" ”
