Chapter 403: I Can't See Clearly
Returning to Baifu from the side of the city wall, the tall old trees in the courtyard regained their new branches, the green and delicate leaves swayed gently in the orange skylight, and the tender willows by the pleasant lake stirred the lake. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Knowing that the heavy shell has not yet faded, it has just broken through the ground, looking for the body of the tree. In the evening breeze, he was watching a flock of ducks that had grown up flapping their wings on the surface of the lake, and a figure stood behind him, and when he looked back, there were still tears on his little face.
"Mother is not coming back...."Linglong wiped the corners of her eyes, and the two maids of Chunmei and Dongju retreated a few feet away when she spoke.
Bai Ning beckoned to her, and the figure on the other side slowly came over, his head resting on his lap, and his palm brushed the soft green silk, "No.... Your mother, she just doesn't remember us for the time being, she now has her own ideas, and if she wants to break outside, her godfather will follow her will....."
.....
On the horizon, the last ray of the remnant sun was gone, and the pavilion echoed the gentle words of the father and daughter.
"Was it instigated by that old guy Zhou Dong.... Linglong went to kill him. β
β.... You can't beat him yet. β
"Is he very good at martial arts, can the godfather kill him?"
β.... What can you do if you fight, your mother has become smarter, even if you kill that old man, it will only make your mother hate, and you will not come back. β
"Then let's go find her....."
β... Godfather can't leave... And she doesn't remember you and me, and looking for her will only scare us ....."
After a pause in the words, Bai Ning held her face, ".... Also, don't hate your aunt, she will always be just a simple woman, hate her, and your mother will not come back. β
In the black, Linglong was silent for a long time before nodding slowly, she walked to the side, sat on the stone bench, and said in a rather adult tone: "Godfather's teachings, Linglong knows, but I don't hate her in my heart, it doesn't mean that I like her, I understand a lot of truths now, just coiled myself to grow up quickly, and then.... Go find your mother. β
The villain puffed up his chest in front of Bai Ning and said with some longing.
.......
In the palace, Zheng Wan raised her head from behind the desk, the books in her hands fell very heavily with a bang, and her eyes were a little stunned and dull looking at the kneeling little palace maid Ling'er.
"Tong Guan is dead?"
"Yes, Queen Mother, I just heard what a guard brother outside said, today he and the Admiral inspected the city wall, and when he came down, he accidentally fell down, broke his head, and when he was sent back to the palace for treatment, he was no longer good...."
The figure in the phoenix robe frowned, stood up, his eyes were full of anger, his helpless raised fingers trembled, and he opened his mouth, not knowing what he wanted to say.
After a moment, she finally relieved herself: "..... Why did he die like this? β
When the finger hangs down between the sides.
"You're a dead bachelorβ" Zheng Wan roared out suddenly, swept the few books she wanted to read on the desk to the ground, and the candle flame flickered, "Bengong.... Something to ask for.... How can you die so easily before the truth is revealed...... Incompetent !!"
She gritted her teeth and walked around, her face was distorted, and in front of the desk, the kneeling little palace maid did not dare to come out, and carefully picked up the books on the ground and held them in her arms.
"Forget it, put the book back. Above, the woman sat back in her chair, looking calm and breezy, as if the previous anger did not come from her.
In the room, there was silence for a while, Zheng Wan, who was sitting behind the desk, had emotions flashing in her eyes, looked at the little palace maid who was trembling and put the books back, and said abruptly: "..... This matter, most of them are known to those Dongchang eyeliners in the palace, and next time I will be more secretive, there are not many people available in this palace, you are from the side of the Empress Dowager, you should remember how she died, you know?"
The little palace maid who bit her lip nodded tearfully.
"Go down and rest.... Go and look at the emperor, so as not to kick the quilt and catch a cold. In the imperial study, the room was full of light, and the woman suddenly reminded softly.
The palace maid Ling'er withdrew from the study, and the night outside was already foggy, shrouded in the air, and it was slightly cool. After walking far away, she looked back at the room that was burning in the fog, and it was hazy, and she couldn't see clearly.
People walked under the porch, and Xiao Chenzi beside him followed. The night breeze came from the other side, and the palace robe was blowing against the body, and the little eunuch said softly: "Overseer, the eldest lady has fallen asleep." β
"Hmm.... Mrs.'s departure had a bad impact on her, and she didn't come back for more than half a month, and when she suddenly saw her, she found that she had grown a lot taller. The figure walking under the porch chuckled twice.
When she returned to the study, Chunmei walked over quickly and gave a blessing, "Master of the family, someone outside has come to visit." β
"Who?" Bai Ning walked into the study and replied lightly.
Outside the door, the maid stood there timidly, and the little eunuch who had just opened the door kicked her foot lightly with his hand, making her eyes, probably reminding her to speak quickly.
"It's... It's the Yan commander. Chunmei whispered back at the door, the reason why she called the commander, she didn't understand, how the person who had disappeared for a long time suddenly appeared again, and had to habitually call out the official position together.
After finishing speaking, he quickly added: "Also... There was also a woman with her, wearing a cloak, mysterious, but the slave still saw that it was a woman. β
Bai Ning's fingers tapped on the table, and his face did not change: "Let them come in, and see Ben Du here." β
Over there, the maid went out to pick up people, and Xiao Chenzi slipped in to wipe Bai Ning's chair, and helped loosen the bun, taking care of it after being busy.
"You're a clever person, and you know a lot more than Gao Muen. Bai Ning smiled, picked up the steaming teacup, and gave a thumbs of approval.
"They are all intimate people of the Overseer.... I don't dare to distinguish between the superior and the inferior, and my father-in-law is a pistachio with his frolicking words. Xiao Chenzi wanted to say something flatteringly, but when footsteps came from outside the door, he stopped talking and stood aside.
Outside the open door of the study, I saw a familiar figure standing there, distinguished from black, followed by another figure, much more petite.
The tall and athletic figure walked in, just kneeling, Yan Qing's eyes were slightly red and kowtowed.
"Xiao Yi has seen the Overseer.... The grace of the overseer to save his life, Yan Qing has always forgotten in his heart. β
Behind him, the petite figure took off his cloak, revealing a brittle and delicate face, and bowed to Bai Ning with a frown, "Senior has seen my brother." β
