Abandoned prince's favorite

Once Xie Chengan left, the entire East Palace seemed to be emptied.

Yu Fengbao was sitting on the soft couch by the window, various colored threads were placed in the embroidery basket on the small black lacquered table, he was holding a needle in his hand, and when he looked out of the window in a daze, the tip of the needle stuck into his fingertips.

"hiss……"

He let out a soft breath, and looked down at the blood droplets that emerged from his fingertips. The bright red color was like a ruby. Yu Fengbao put his hand in his mouth, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

He thought that if Xie Chengan was sitting across from him at this time, he would definitely yell "Bao'er, why are you so careless", "Bao'er, I'm here to blow you off" or something like that, and then say it involuntarily Put his injured finger in his mouth.

Then he would tease his fingers with the tip of his tongue and say some love words that made his ears blush, until his face was flushed with embarrassment, and he wanted to escape before he would stop.

The sewing nurse at the side smiled tenderly.

"But miss your Highness again?"

When Yu Fengbao came back to his senses, his face turned red immediately, "Nurse, where do I have it?"

There is a kind of wisdom that sees through everything in Xu Momo's eyes. She smiled and shook her head, "Have you ever thought about it? You know it in your heart. Sometimes expressions can't deceive people."

That kind of smile and that kind of tenderness can only be found when thinking of the one you love.

Seeing that he couldn't escape, Yu Fengbao only gave a soft "hmm".

He invited Nanny Xu to come back and teach him how to sew, and since Xie Chengan's birthday was approaching, he didn't know what kind of birthday present to give him after much deliberation, so he simply gave him some clothes.

The clothes he made by himself are complete from the inside to the outside, from the sachet to the fan pendant.

He could even imagine Xie Chengan's happy face when he received the gift.

Eyebrows were beaming and elated, and then she kept calling him Bao'er, and hugged him tightly in her arms.

"It's hard for you to have such thoughts. I think His Highness will be very happy when he receives this gift."

Madam Xu said with a smile.

She is an old nanny in the palace for many years. She has no other advantages, but she has a bit of kung fu for people. From the first time she met Yu Fengbao, she knew that Yu Fengbao looked thin and shy. Speaking of The little eunuch who always speaks with a three-point smile has a tenacity that does not match his appearance.

Yu Fengbao put down his work and looked at the autumn scenery outside with his chin resting on his hands.

The breeze came slowly, bringing a strong scent of osmanthus seeds. The rich and fragrant scent reminded him that it is already autumn, and Xie Chengan has been away for more than 20 days. Apart from the letters sent a few days ago, there is no news up.

A bad premonition suddenly rose in Yu Fengbao's heart.

He hurriedly ran to the bedside, and took out the gold-painted box under the pillow, which contained the letters sent back by Xie Chengan these days. He silently counted the dates, from the first one every two days, to the later ones One letter every four or five days, but this time it has been nearly seven or eight days, but there is still no news back.

"Mommy, just sit down for a while, I have to go to Jingren Palace."

Nanny Xu also noticed something strange, and hurriedly comforted her: "Auspicious people have their own appearance, Your Highness, he is a good person, so nothing will happen to him."

The temperature from the slightly rough palm made Yu Fengbao calm down a little, he smiled at Nanny Xu, and then walked quickly outside the house.

……

Jingren Palace.

The queen raised her eyebrows and asked in surprise, "What is he here for?"

"The servant girl looked at him with a flustered expression, as if there was something urgent, and at noon, the empress was still talking about the fact that His Highness hadn't written to you for a few days? Maybe His Highness wrote to the little eunuch, but the empress might as well let him It’s easy to come in and ask, so you can feel more at ease.”

Mammy answered cautiously.

The queen recalled the nightmare she had last night, she dreamed that Xie Chengan was covered in blood.She rubbed her forehead and said softly, "Let him in."

Yu Fengbao saluted, and seeing that the queen didn't cry out, he knelt down respectfully on the ground.

"Empress, my servant would like to ask if His Highness has sent any news in the past few days?"

The queen stood up abruptly, walked up to Yu Fengbao a few steps, and exclaimed, "Even you haven't received the news?"

Hearing this, Yu Fengbao collapsed to the ground.

When Xie Chengan left, he clearly said he would be back in ten days and half a month, but now it's been almost a month and he hasn't come back, and now even the news has been cut off, his whole body seems to be soaked in winter water, from inside It was freezing outside.

Suddenly a eunuch hurried in, shouting in panic.

"Your Majesty is bad, bad... News came from Yuqian that His Highness was accidentally seriously injured on the way to suppress the bandits, and fell into the Huai River. Right now, life or death is unknown. I'm afraid, I'm afraid..."

Yu Fengbao's mind exploded with a bang, he struggled to get up, grabbed the eunuch's arm with red eyes, and shouted loudly: "What are you afraid of?" He pushed the eunuch away vigorously, and He said to himself: "Your Highness, he promised me, he will definitely come back, he won't leave me alone, you nonsense..."

A fishy sweetness welled up in his throat, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

Bright red blood spattered on the dark floor tiles.

He walked out of the hall while muttering.

"No, definitely not, Your Highness has promised me... I have to go back, go home and wait for His Highness to come back."

The exclamation of the palace servant came from behind, the queen seemed to have fainted, but at this moment Yu Fengbao couldn't care about anything else, he returned to the East Palace in a daze like a puppet.

His ears were buzzing, as if countless people were passing by before his eyes.

When He Yuanqing came, he saw Yu Fengbao sitting at the table as if he had lost his soul, and he ignored him when he talked to him.

He Yuanqing was out of breath and shouted loudly.

"Yu Fengbao!"

Someone is calling him.

Yu Fengbao looked up, and tears rolled down his face in an instant, "Yuanqing, Your Highness, he, he..."

He Yuanqing was angry and distressed at the same time.

"Didn't you always say that your Highness is wise and mighty, and that nothing can trouble him? Now that the Hall of Mental Cultivation is still in chaos, you're making trouble yourself? Look at your ideas."

Yu Fengbao raised his hand to wipe away his tears, and asked He Yuanqing's arm with teary eyes.

"Yuanqing, His Highness, he is fine, he must be fine, right?"

He Yuanqing sighed softly, "You should ask yourself this sentence. If you believe it, he will be fine. If you don't believe it, he will be fine. Besides, if you take ten thousand steps back, even your Highness If something goes wrong, are you going to be bumped to death in this East Palace, so that you can go to the Underworld and be a ghost couple with your Highness?"

He put his arm on Yu Fengbao's shoulder, and asked him solemnly.

"If you die, who will avenge your highness?"

Yu Fengbao sniffed, lowered his head and remained silent, his thin back trembling slightly.

He Yuanqing stuffed the bowl into his hand, "You haven't eaten for a day, eat something first. Only when you're full will you have the energy to think about other things."

Yu Fengbao nodded, and ate in small bites.

"Yuanqing, thank you. It's getting late now, and His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince can't do without people. You should go back first. I'm fine now."

He Yuanqing looked at him, his eyes were red, his nose was red, but his eyes returned to normal, unlike when he came in just now, the whole person seemed to have lost his soul, even his eyes were not focused, it was really scary.

"Really?"

Yu Fengbao smiled.It's just that laughing is uglier than crying.

"Really. You are right, I should have confidence in His Highness. And..."

And even if something happened to His Highness, he would have to avenge him before he could go underground to find him.

He Yuanqing patted him on the shoulder.

"This is the Yu Fengbao I know. Go to sleep peacefully after eating, maybe your Highness will be back as soon as you open your eyes tomorrow."

As night fell quietly, the crow circled over the East Palace and returned to its nest with strange calls.

Yu Fengbao sat by the bed blankly, holding the gold-painted box in his arms.

In the box were the banknotes Xie Chengan gave him, the letters Xie Chengan gave him, and other small things Xie Chengan gave him, each of which had Xie Chengan's aura remaining.

Can His Highness come back?

Yu Fengbao didn't want to think about this question, but he couldn't help thinking about it.

When it was time to light the lamp, he got up, washed his face, changed his clothes, and went out.

The wind at night is cool, and there is dim light in the long corridor, which stretches the figures of passing palace people very long.

Yu Fengbao looked up at the plaque on the palace gate.

For the three words Yanxi Palace, he only recognized two words for Yanhe Palace.

"Auntie, please let me know that Yu Fengbao has something to see."

Concubine Duan was reclining on the soft couch, good news came from outside the palace in the afternoon, Xie Chengan, the scourge, had finally died outside, to her, this was great news, the Great Zhou Dynasty came to establish a leader but not a virtuous one, Xie Chengan died , her third prince will become the eldest son, and when her son ascends the throne and becomes emperor, she will be the rightful queen mother.

"What are you doing here at my concubine's place this late at night?"

Yu Fengbao saluted respectfully.

"The slave used to have no eyes, and didn't know who was the real master in the harem. Now that he has seen it clearly, he came here to show his loyalty and hope that the imperial concubine can support him a little bit in the future."

Concubine Duan raised a sneering smile at the corner of her mouth, she was really a rootless thing, she had no heart at all, where did she come from, so she rushed to seek refuge with her?

"You are very well informed, but this noble concubine seems to have heard that Xie Chengan treats you very unusually. Now that his bones are not cold, you just come to curry favor with this noble concubine. If he knows, how should you feel?"

Yu Fengbao's hands hidden in his sleeves were tightly clenched into fists, and his nails were embedded in his flesh, but he didn't feel any pain.

"The only way out for us slaves in the palace is to follow a noble and respectable master. The slave was blind and followed the one in the East Palace in the past, just to survive. Now that one dies, the whole palace will belong to the empress. Let alone the future, if the slave doesn't come at this time, I'm afraid that he won't even have the chance to speak in front of the imperial concubine in the future."

Concubine Duan twitched her lips.

"You are smart. It's just that my imperial concubine does not support useless people."

Yu Fengbao echoed: "That's natural. Since the slave dared to come, he naturally wanted to show his sincerity, but..." He looked around, and seeing that Concubine Duan hadn't moved, he said, "The slave is now in the palace of the empress, is it that the empress Are you still afraid of slaves?"

Duan Guifei snorted coldly.

"It's just a joke, it's just a little eunuch, what should I be afraid of, my imperial concubine?"

After stepping away from the screen, Yu Fengbao knelt and moved to the soft couch, and beat her legs, "Your Majesty is the biological mother of the future prince, but our Great Zhou Dynasty has a clear lineage. After all, the one in Jingren Palace is the Empress Dowager, Your Majesty." At best, you are a mother empress dowager."

This is also Concubine Duan's heart disease.

She stared at Yu Fengbao who was in front of the couch with lower eyebrows and eyes, "So, you have a solution?"

"If this slave has a way, I will get rid of that Jingren Palace for you..."

Yu Fengbao looked up at Concubine Duan on the couch.

Concubine Duan immediately sat up straight, with faint excitement in her voice, "Really?"

As soon as the words fell, a cold chill came from the neck.

I saw Yu Fengbao stood up slowly, his eyes were cold and cold, and his voice seemed to come from hell, "This dagger slave is poisoned, if the imperial concubine dares to move around, the slave can't guarantee it... ..."

"you you……"

Concubine Duan's face turned pale with fright, "This is Yanxi Palace, if you dare to hurt this palace, you will never leave alive."

Yu Fengbao sneered.

"Since the slave has the guts to come, he never thought of leaving alive. He just exchanged the life of a dignified concubine for the humble life of the slave. After all, the slave earned it."

Concubine Duan hurriedly said: "Everything is easy to discuss, if Eunuch Yu has any requirements, feel free to ask, as long as you don't hurt me, I..."

The dagger in Yu Fengbao's hand used all his strength, and Concubine Duan was so frightened that she ran back to hide.

"The servant has nothing else to ask for, but only wants His Highness to come back. Can the imperial concubine do this?"

His expression was terrifying, and there was bloodthirsty hatred in his eyes.

Concubine Duan Gui originally wanted to shout, but her voice was stuck in her throat. Just when Yu Fengbao was about to avenge Xie Chengan, a black shadow suddenly rushed in, and the black shadow reached out and snatched the dagger from Yu Fengbao's hand.

As the two intersected, he whispered something in Yu Fengbao's ear with a barely traceable voice.

"His Royal Highness is all right."

Yu Fengbao froze for a moment, the voice was very familiar to him.

The man in black took advantage of his dazzled opportunity, grabbed his hand and fled outside.

When the two of them left Yanxi Palace, they heard a lot of commotion in Yanxi Palace.

Yu Fengbao held the man's wrist tightly, afraid that if he let go, his wish would come to nothing, he choked up and said, "Cheng Peng, immediately, take me to see him immediately."

Cheng Peng nodded.

Yu Fengbao only felt that all the strength in his body was taken away in an instant, his feet were weak, and he staggered and almost fell, but fortunately Cheng Peng's eyesight and hands quickly supported him.

He was a little worried and asked again.

"Your Highness is really all right?"

Cheng Peng nodded, "I'm fine."

Yu Fengbao's heart was finally put back in his stomach, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

At this moment, the moon is bright and the wind is clear, and the dark fragrance is floating.
