Rebirth: The paranoid war king was controlled by the crazy female protagonist
Chapter 70 Moonlit Night with Him
Xiao Yanqing found the right time to rush over. Before he reached the courtyard, he had already caught sight of her familiar figure and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But as he got closer, before I could completely relax, my heart tightened again.
"Your Highness."
He looked at her bulging mouth and couldn't help frowning, wondering.
"Who gave it to you?!"
She swallowed the food in her mouth and said, "I don't know."
"..."Xiao Yanqing.
"I don't know you and you're still eating?!"
He grabbed the plate from the table, only to find that she had eaten it all.
"Huh? I tried it." She tilted her head to indicate the fish in the pond. She had fed the fish before eating.
He suppressed his anger and stared at her. This meant that someone had just come here to talk to her and even kindly prepared snacks and tea for her? !
This woman! She was bribed by a little food?!
Without bothering to teach her a lesson, he grabbed her arm and walked away.
She naturally knew the danger of staying here any longer, so she followed his pace obediently.
Following his advance arrangements, they got on the carriage together and left the palace.
"Wen Shu isn't leaving?" She was a little confused.
The banquet should not be over yet, how could he leave so early?
Although he was angry, he still responded when he heard her soft question, "Wen Shu can't get away yet."
He took a heavier breath and forced himself to calm down. "What kind of person gave it to you?"
She opened her eyes wide, without any nervousness, "He is a young man who is as handsome as Your Highness."
Hearing this, he pursed his lips in shock, "No more?"
"Gone."
"you!"
His dark eyes tightened, and his heart was in a mess, "Didn't I tell you not to talk to other people?"
She gave a reasonable explanation, "But he has already asked me, it would be bad not to answer."
This woman! She really treats me with courtesy!
When he met her innocent gaze, it was like a fire being poured with a basin of cold water, and he sighed deeply.
"What did you say?"
"I didn't say anything. He was curious about who I was, but I didn't tell him."
"that's it?"
"That's it." She smiled.
"No loopholes left?"
"No, I won't cause any trouble for your Highness."
But for Xiao Yanqing, what's important is not to worry about whether she will cause him trouble, but that someone is always thinking about her.
Thinking back to that guy named Xiang Heng, he spent quite a while searching for her just after taking a look at her. I can only hope that she didn't meet any troublesome person.
"Let's talk about the mission first." He reminded.
Then she told him about the mission.
"Your Highness, I only saw the eunuch who delivered the message and which bedroom he entered, but I did not see which concubine it was." Her pupils rolled, she did not think this was a successful mission.
"It's okay. You did a good job. You are very obedient." Based on his understanding of her, if he hadn't told her in advance, she would have gone in to find out what was going on.
"I don't want to go in." She knew he was referring to her and she kept his words in mind.
"Why?" He asked slightly curiously.
It’s not that I can’t go in, but that I don’t want to go in.
"It's full of flowers and brightly lit, but there's no warmth at all. I don't like that bedroom." She frankly expressed her feelings. She didn't think there were any kind concubines living there.
"Your Highness, do you know which concubine's bedroom this is?"
"Yes, it's the concubine's bedroom."
"Imperial Concubine." She thought that it was a position just lower than that of the Queen.
"Which side is she on? Jiang Zhuo? Or her own faction?"
She was the only one who could ask these questions about officialdom and political factions so boldly.
"If we can confirm that she is the one who received the news today, we can be sure that she is Jiang Zhuo's person."
She nodded silently, and the clarity in her pupils suddenly faded, replaced by an unspeakable chill.
In the palace.
"Discovered?!" The eunuch beside the man couldn't help but get angry when he heard the news and suppressed his surprised voice.
"Did you see who she left with?" The eunuch suddenly became worried.
"No...I deserve to die!" The eunuch who reported the crime confessed in a low voice.
"You can't even do this!"
"What?" The man heard the eunuch's anger.
The eunuch was suddenly startled and leaned over to the man and told him the situation.
Although the man had a smile on his face, he could not hide his cruelty. "No matter what method you use, find her for me."
"Yes... yes, I'll check it out right now." The eunuch responded quickly in fear.
The man glanced at the people present and leaving the hall, and for some reason, his eyes subconsciously stayed on the empty space in front of him.
That is, Xiao Yanqing.
Is he his man?
He immediately gave up the idea. Given Xiao Yanqing's personality, how could she be with other women? Besides, that young lady...
Thinking of this, her beautiful face as she spoke came into my mind. Who is she?
……
In the evening, as agreed, Xiao Yanqing took her to the most prosperous street to enjoy the lanterns.
She never thought that in this life, she would be able to appreciate such a magnificent view. She couldn't help but sigh that this was comparable to the Chinese New Year.
The colorful lights on both sides of the street illuminate the red walls, floats parade through the streets, music lingers in the air, and dancers in exquisite costumes dance gracefully, accompanied by laughter.
People walking on the streets are having fun, carrying colorful lanterns or lighting fireworks.
They did not disguise themselves deliberately. In such a place of enjoyment, they naturally would not pay attention to the identities of the people around them.
"Your Highness, is it just the two of us?" Qian Yun seemed to be following silently in the dark with the other guards.
"You don't have to call me Your Highness when you're out there," he reminded her.
"Hmm? What's that called?" She looked at his delicate profile.
He lowered his eyes to meet her gaze, and raised the corners of his lips slightly, "Aren't you calling my name in your heart?"
She was stunned, a trace of astonishment flashed in her eyes. Did she call his name when she was not conscious?
In that case, "Then, Yan Qing."
The cry was like a warm current that flowed into the body and created ripples.
Before he could recover from the sweet call, she had already walked away.
"Yan Qing, let's go there!"
"Jiang...Jiang Qingyu! Wait!" He immediately followed her.
She walked towards the street snacks, "Yan Qing, I want to eat this."
"Yanqing, I still want to eat this."
"and this…"
She was eating, drinking and having fun in the front, and he followed her closely behind, paying the bills.
He noticed the food disappearing from her hands, and it looked like she was really hungry.
She was smiling all the way and was extremely curious about everything. He stared at her happy expression. For some reason, she seemed to be destined to live in a simple and warm family.
This way she could be happy forever. He even felt moved that although so many terrible things were weighing on her, she was able to escape from the pain time and time again.
Whether it was real or fake, he admired her state of mind.
Seeing that she finally stopped and finished the fruit in her hand, "What else do you want to eat? Hmm?"
"I want that." She pointed to the colorful lanterns for making wishes and praying that were floating by the lake.
Seeing this, he paid the money, she chose a beautiful lantern, and they went to the lake together.
I lit a lamp, placed it by the lake, and watched it drift and swim on the surface of the lake.
She clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and made a wish.
Until she stood up and looked at the stars floating on the lake, reflecting the full moon and spreading silver light, interweaving together, as if accepting people's wishes for blessings.
"What did you wish for?" he asked casually.
She walked up to him and replied, "May we share joy, freedom, and peace."
They looked at each other and he repeated her words in his mind.
Share joy, freedom, peace...
