Kong Lin and Li Jinxiu have been waiting in the side room, and only when the morning is about to dawn will someone come back and forth, and when they hear that Huan Ci and the child are safe, the two of them are relieved.

There were still people coming in and out in front of the main house, and the room was bright. After being nervous for almost a night, Kong Lin felt a little thirsty in hindsight.

He got up and poured himself a cup of tea, and added some to Li Jinxiu's cup. Li Jinxiu raised his eyes to look at him, sighed and said, "I sent so many people to look for it, but now there is still no movement at all." ”

Kong Lin shook his head helplessly: "I can't hide this from her." ”

"The brothers said they didn't see him, and the people he brought with him didn't see him, so where can he go?" Li Jinxiu rubbed the tea cup in his hand.

Kong Lin narrowed his eyes: "Those people originally came for him, maybe they did something, we don't know." ”

"I don't know who is so vicious, do you see this?"

"I've already sent someone to deliver an urgent report to the palace." Fu Shen thoughtfully, "Maybe I can catch the murderer along the way." ”

A few of their attackers have been caught, and they can be attacked by them. Thinking of this, Li Jinxiu stood up and patted Kong Lin on the shoulder: "Thanks to Ziye's timely arrival today, otherwise we would have died under their knives by now." ”

"No, I'm still a step late." Kong Lin frowned.

If he had gone early enough, Huan Ci would not have fallen, and Fu Shen would not have disappeared.

Looking at the crowded upper room, the man sighed deeply and got up to leave after a long time.

When Huan Ci woke up, it was already dawn, the room was quiet, the child was tightly wrapped, and now he was sleeping next to her.

At that time, she had only glanced at it in a hurry, and now she had a chance to take a closer look at the child. It's a pity that the children who just gave birth are a little ugly, Huan Ci couldn't help laughing, she really wanted to draw this scene.

The little girl who was busy outside heard the movement and hurriedly lifted the curtain and came in: "Madame has finally woken up, the meal has been prepared, I will let them bring it." ”

Huan Ci turned his head to look, and saw a sixteen or seventeen-year-old woman standing underground, looking very clever. She sat up with her arms propped up and asked with a smile, "What time is it?" ”

"It's past three o'clock."

"I've slept for so long?" Huan Ci frowned. It was only now that she had the leisure to look at the room, and the furnishings in the room should be worth a lot, and it took a lot of thought to see it.

"What about you?" She asked.

The maid looked up at her and said with a smile: "My lord has gone to the governor's mansion, and I will come over later." ”

"What about my husband? Why don't you see him? ”

"I don't know." The maid shook her head, "I was just sent here by them, and everyone went out after I came." However, there is a nurse sent by the adults in the side room, and if the lady wants to see me, she will call her. ”

"Not necessarily." Huan Ci waved his hand. She slept too deeply, and she didn't know if Fu Shen had been here during this period.

She became more and more uneasy, and she lifted the quilt and was about to go to the ground. The maid hurriedly came over to help her put on her shoes: "What is Madame going to do?" ”

"I'm going to take a look outside." Huan Ci said softly.

"How can this work? It's just a matter of going to the ground to do activities, how can you go outside to blow the wind? What can I do if I'm sick? The maid pulled her sleeve and dissuaded.

Huan Ci looked at her boredly, and saw that she was really flustered, so he didn't feel that his heart softened, and he discussed with her: "Then I won't go, you go and say it for me, and let my husband come over as soon as possible." ”

After that, she went back to bed, but unexpectedly the child was alarmed, and there was a random cry.

The nurse outside hurried over when she heard the movement, and took the child from Huan Ci's arms and coaxed her non-stop. Huan Ci watched for a long time, only to know that the child had urinated, and the nurse helped her wipe it clean, and then hugged her and coaxed her to sleep.

After all, it was the first time to be a mother, and she didn't have any brothers and sisters, so Huan Ci didn't know much about these things, so she had to keep asking the nurse.

This nurse is just a woman in her early twenties, she looks good, and she is better at speaking and doing things than others, and Huan Ci can't help but have a good impression of her.

The little maid she sent out went back and forth for about half an hour, and finally failed to bring Fu Shen here, but Kong Lin walked in behind her.

The nurse suddenly heard a report from someone outside the door, and hurriedly looked up, and the child in her arms began to cry.

"Give it to me." Huan Ci took the child and coaxed her softly.

As soon as Kong Lin came in, he saw her gentle expression, and after being stunned for a moment, he walked over lightly, stretched out his hand to tease the child, and said with a smile: "Now you are also a mother." ”

Huan Ciwan chuckled, coaxed the child to stop crying, and then raised his eyelids to look at him: "What about Fu Shen?" Why don't you see him? ”

When she tilted her head, she was very close to the man, Kong Lin's pupils shrank, and he looked at her without saying anything.

Huan Ci quickly noticed his abnormality: "What happened?" You should tell me too. ”

Kong Lin stood up straight, sighed lightly, and said, "Brother Fu, our people didn't find him." ”

"Who captured him?" Huan Ci asked.

Kong Lin hurriedly shook his head: "Everyone said they didn't see it, when I brought someone to save you, they fled in the wilderness, and I didn't see Brother Fu at that time, and I don't know where he went?" ”

Huan Ci breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. No news is the best news.

"I'm sorry for you, if you have any news, you must tell me quickly." She stared at Kong Lindao.

Kong Lin looked at her deeply: "Don't worry, I will definitely bring him back early." ”

Huan Ci nodded gratefully. Although she was apprehensive, she believed that Fu Shen would be fine. "What about the man who followed Fu Shen? Is he absent? She asked.

Kong Lin raised his eyebrows and thought for a moment, then asked, "But that young man named Sweeping Leaves?" ”

"Is that him, is he there? Let him come and see me. ”

"He was so badly injured that he still hasn't woken up. When he wakes up, I'll send someone to tell you. Kong Lin said.

Huan Ci's brows jumped, and he was a little surprised: "What about the woman who followed me?" ”

"She followed everyone out to find Fu Shen, and she will be back later, don't worry."

"Do you know who sent it? Do you have any clues? ”

"People are holding a few, but this matter needs to be discussed with the capital before making plans." Kong Lin said in a low voice.

With that, he looked left and right, and raised his hand to signal everyone in the room to go out. Although everyone wondered, they had to listen, and they all disappeared after a while.

Huan Ci raised his eyebrows: "What do you want to tell me?" ”

"I do have something to tell you. But your father asked me to say these things, because I have never had the opportunity to see you before, so I can tell you now. ”

"What?" Huan Ci hurriedly sat up straight and looked at him, his expression extremely serious.

My father was indeed fighting with Kong Lin at that time, and she originally planned to find an opportunity to ask, but because there were many delays in the future, and the letter she sent was not delivered, she was never able to ask him.

The man walked over slowly, moved a stool and sat in front of her: "Actually, it's all ordinary words. We were sitting in a small conversation at night when we were on guard against the enemy, and he said something to me, and he said that if he could not come back, he would tell you these things. But I didn't think I needed to tell you this, but since I've seen it, it's better to talk about it. ”

"What did he say?" Huan Ci urged.

"He told me that he has been preventing you from marrying Fu Shen, and as a result, he has delayed you in vain for so many years, and he has always felt sorry for you in his heart. Also, he originally hoped that you would stay away from the capital in the future and stop staying under their noses. It was only later that I learned that you and Fu Shen had already married, so I didn't tell you this. But now that I have seen it, there is no reason not to say it. Kong Lin said.

Hearing this, Huan Ci hung his head in embarrassment. She couldn't tell her father about her marriage to Fu Shen, so she has always felt guilty in her heart, and now that someone else pointed it out, she felt even more embarrassed.

"I'm really ashamed of my father, I even hid all the marriage matters from him." She sighed softly.

Kong Lin tugged at the corners of his mouth, lowered his head and didn't say a word.

Huan Ci gently shook the child in her arms, looking at her big eyes that were gurgling like grapes, and suddenly wanted to take her back to Bingzhou to have a look, so that her father could also see her child.

After not hearing movement for a long time, Kong Lin looked up at her expression, sensed her loss, and hurriedly comforted: "Actually, he should have guessed it a long time ago." ”

Huan Ci's eyelashes trembled, and tears suddenly fell.

Kong Lin panicked, hurriedly got up from the chair, took a clean handkerchief and handed it to her, and persuaded: "Don't cry, be careful of crying and breaking your body." ”

Huan Ci took the handkerchief and murmured, "Thank you." And last night's business, and the midwife's and nurse's affairs, all depend on your help. ”

"Why worry about such a trivial matter." Kong Lin chuckled, "The most important thing for you now is to take care of your body and take care of this child." I will send someone to find Fu Shen, and I will definitely get him back for you. ”

Huan Ci nodded, not knowing how to thank him.

Kong Lin looked at her silently, the woman in front of him kept crying, he couldn't help but want to raise his hand to comfort her, but he still held back.

Xu is because of the connection between mother and daughter, and the child in Huan Ci's arms suddenly cried, no matter how coaxed he was, he couldn't coax it. Huan Ci didn't know what to do, and he was so anxious that he was sweating.

Kong Lin saw the nurse who was probing her brain at the door, and knew that it was also in the way for him to continue to stay here: "I'll go out first, and I'll send someone to tell you as soon as there is news." ”

"Good!" Huan Ci nodded and beckoned the nurse to come over.

The nurse guessed that the child should be hungry, and guided Huan Ci to feed her, and persuaded her: "Although there is a nurse, the lady should also feed the child herself, which is good for your own body." It's good for children, too. It stands to reason that you should have fed her when she was born, but the girl slept too deeply, and no one dared to call you. ”

"How can this work? If anything happens in the future, you must tell me. I don't understand it, and I need you to teach me more. Huan Ci looked at her and said.

The nurse saw her red eyes and looked a little surprised: "How can Mrs. cry in confinement?" ”
