Qingxiu has not been in the palace for a long time, she is different from other palace maids who pursue ideals and enter the palace, she enters the palace purely to survive. Qingxiu's parents died in the war two years ago, when she was only 14 years old, she ran around with her uncle and aunt, although the life was poor, but she could barely save a life, but the good times did not last long, the war swept in, and her only two relatives were also killed in the war. Qingxiu wandered alone, and had a few whispered thoughts, it was at this time that she was rescued by Bai Huan and swore allegiance to her from then on.

Bai Huan said more than once that he has a daughter who is the same age as Qingxiu, and when he sees Qingxiu, he will think of his long-lost daughter, so he is always very good to Qingxiu, and Qingxiu also remembers this kindness.......

She stood beside the bed, her eyes looking at the sunset that was gradually sinking in the west, and her brow was furrowed.

Do you really have a chance to repay Bai Huan?

Just when Qingxiu was thinking about this, a very light, very light coughing sound suddenly came from behind him.

Her eyes lit up, and she suddenly turned her gaze, and happened to see Bai Huan's eyelashes twitching and slowly opening her eyes! At this moment, Qingxiu seemed to have found her backbone, and her face was full of joy. If it weren't for the fact that this was a special period, if he was worried that shouting would cause the alarm on the prince's side, Qingxiu really wanted to hug Bai Huan and cheer!

There were tears in her eyes, and a smile on her lips: "Your Highness, you have finally woken up!" ”

Bai Huan gently pressed the corners of his forehead, only to feel that his whole body was as heavy as lead, and it took a lot of effort to make a very casual small action, and sometimes he couldn't even do it! How did your body become so weak? Bai Huan wrinkled his brows and asked, "Qingxiu, how long have I been in a coma?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the last time you woke up was three days ago!"

Three days?

Bai Huan was in a trance, she didn't feel anything, she just felt that she had a very long dream, and there were many people she wanted to see and didn't want to see in the dream, but she didn't expect it to be so long! She was surprised, but her mind was still clear, and she knew that the focus now was not on how long she had been unconscious, but-

"Is there any news from His Highness?" Bai Huan's first thought when he woke up was to ask Qingfeng Changqi's whereabouts, it had been three days since he last woke up, in these three days, those search teams should have found Feng Changqi, right?

As soon as she asked about this topic, the expression on Qingxiu's face became much more serious.

Bai Huan was surprised: "Why don't you reply?" ”

"Your Majesty, in the past three days, there have been two pieces of news about His Highness, and the two pieces of news are very different, and the slave and maid dare not say it for a while."

Bai Huan hurriedly said: "You say that, I won't easily blame anyone!" ”

Qingxiu then put her mind at ease: "During the period when Your Majesty was in a coma, His Royal Highness the Prince brought news from His Royal Highness the Imperial Daughter, saying that the soldiers who were searching in the dense forest had found some objects to determine which objects belonged to His Royal Highness, and there were still blood stains on them, and the scattered hairs of the beasts were ........"

A feeling of dizziness hit like a wave, Bai Huan closed his eyes, and his hands clenched involuntarily: "What about the other news?" ”

"Another piece of news says that His Highness is safe and sound, and is now returning to the ship of Meng Liguo." Because the stakes are so high, it would be a crime to divide the royal family if he didn't make trouble, so Qingxiu was very cautious, and hesitated for a moment before saying, "This news came from Qin Tianjian, it is said that early this morning, an internal official accidentally found a carrier pigeon when he was cleaning, and there was a note written by His Royal Highness on the pigeon's feet, and the content on it was peace, so that Your Majesty should not worry." ”

Both are news about Feng Changqi, why is the gap so big?

"Where's the note?"

A drop of sweat slipped from the corner of Qingxiu's forehead: "Your Majesty, the note was not delivered here at all, the news was that an internal official of Qin Tianjian personally came to tell the slave maid, and he also said that the note was taken away by His Royal Highness the Prince, and His Royal Highness the Prince didn't seem to have the intention of exchanging the note for His Majesty!" ”

No wonder when she spoke just now, she always looked like she didn't dare to speak, she was worried about this.

Bai Huan coughed lightly: "The prince may think that I am still in a coma, and it is useless to write to me, so he put it on his side." ”

"Your Majesty, it's not like this, His Royal Highness not only didn't hand over the note to you, but even told the chamberlain not to tell the matter, otherwise he would take his life!"

"How is this possible?" This is Bai Huan's only younger brother, the two grew up together since childhood, their relationship is very close, and they know each other's personalities very well, it is impossible for her emperor to do such a thing that takes people's lives casually!

Qingxiu kowtowed again and again, and couldn't wait to dig out her heart and show it to Bai Huan: "Your Majesty, please forgive the slave and maid for talking too much, the slave and maid think that His Royal Highness the Prince is no longer the original His Royal Highness, although he looks the same as before, but in terms of the attitude of some things and the handling of details, he is like two people before!" ”

Her only brother was said to be like this, Bai Huan naturally wanted to refute it, but when she was about to speak, her eyes saw Qingxiu's expression.

This girl has been with her for a long time, and her personality has almost been figured out, she is not the kind of person who will frame people casually, and she will still analyze it after she has finished speaking!

Bai Huan silently listened to what Qingxiu saw and heard, and the decoction poured into the vase was also seen by her, and at this time, she showed a trace of skepticism towards King Qin. But she still didn't believe it all, after all, hearing is false, seeing is believing, and some things have to be seen in person to know.

Bai Huan lowered his eyes: "Qingxiu, you let people invite His Highness into the palace, just say that I woke up and wanted to see him, he will definitely come." ”

"Slaves obey!"

Not long after Qingxiu left, the prince came. He was like a gust of wind, blowing into the dormitory with a roar and blowing in front of Bai Huan's bed.

As soon as Bai Huan raised his head, he met his smiling eyes: "Your Majesty, you have finally woken up!" ”

Bai Huan nodded solemnly: "You have taken care of all the things in Meng Liguo in the past few days, and you have taken care of it very well....... Ahem........"

"Your Majesty, you are not in good health, try not to talk if you can." The prince reminded Bai Huan with a concerned face, "It's important to take care of your body, don't hurt your body for a momentary impatience!" ”

These words didn't sound like there was anything wrong with them, in Bai Huan's eyes, the prince was still the prince who cared about herself, but she believed Qingxiu's words, and did not relax her vigilance because of the prince's words, but continued to talk. She coughed for a long time, pretending to be out of breath and probably fainting at will.

"I'm afraid that if I don't hurry up to ask some things now, I won't be able to ask them again under Jiuquan in the future." Bai Huan clutched the prince's sleeve and said angrily, "Although you are young, you have done a good job in governing the country, I just heard from the people below that Meng Liguo was able to maintain order during this period of time is all because of your merits, and when I leave in the future, I can rest assured under Jiuquan." The only thing I can't worry about now is Qi'er, after careful calculation, she has been away from Meng Liguo for nearly a month, and I haven't received any news related to her during this period........ Asked you to send someone to look for it, did you find it? ”

Bai Huan's eyes were firmly fixed on the prince, and this look fell in the eyes of others, only if she was concerned about the whereabouts of Feng Changqi and the others, only she knew that what she was most concerned about now was the prince's reaction.

Sure enough, the other party lowered his face and said, "I didn't find their whereabouts." ”

Like a boulder slamming down, Bai Huan's mood began to become heavy, she wrinkled her brows, and asked in disbelief: "There really is no news?" ”

The prince still shook his head: "It's true." ”

Bai Huan closed his eyes, and despair flashed in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, but it was not because of the lack of news from the prince's mouth, but because of the other party's concealment, it seems that what Qingxiu said is true. Regardless of whether the person in front of her is her own brother or not, the betrayal of the other party is an ironclad thing.

Bai Huan didn't want to face the prince anymore, she sighed, turned her eyes and refused to look at the prince again: "You go back first, I want to be alone." ”

The blow that the only daughter might die in the dense forest hit Bai Huan couldn't bear it, and there was nothing wrong with wanting to stay alone for a while, so the prince didn't doubt it. Before leaving, he glanced at Bai Huan with concern for the last time, and carefully advised: "Your Majesty, you must take care of your health." ”

As soon as the others left the dormitory, as soon as the door closed, Bai Huan suddenly grabbed Qingxiu's hand.

Qingxiu was taken aback: "Your Majesty? ”

Bai Huan said with a solemn expression: "Qingxiu, you immediately go out of the palace to find Qi'er, let her not go back to the capital, she can go anywhere, just don't come back!" It's too dangerous here! ”

Qingxiu wanted to listen to Bai Huan's orders to leave the palace, but where could she go? During the time when Bai Huan was in a coma, the prince not only controlled the previous dynasty, but even the harem was controlled by him, and now in this Forbidden City, I don't know how much of his eyeliner, Qingxiu may not be able to go even if he wants to go!

"Your Majesty, after you fell ill, His Royal Highness sealed the palace on the grounds that the news could cause turmoil outside........ Even if the slave wants to leave, she has more than enough heart but not enough strength. ”

Bai Huan understood her concerns, narrowed her eyes slightly, and said: "You don't have to worry, there is a secret passage under this palace, which has always only been known to the monarch, you only need to pass through the secret passage to reach the outside of the palace, and then you will go to Lingcheng non-stop." If you want to come to the capital, the canal of Liang must stop there, and you will definitely be able to meet Qi'er. ”
