Chapter 128： Whisper

The people from Shuobei came in menacingly, and the battle reports from the front line were frequently issued. Yu Chirui took the post of the marching commander of Yongzhou Road, and led 100,000 troops stationed at the border, forming a confrontation with the Shuobei Xiaoqi who were trying to go south. At the same time, Zhong Lin also left the capital to go to the front line to support, while the heel army and supplies would arrive later.

After the Inner Court ended, Bai Qingyang stayed in Liangyi Hall to handle the performances and paperwork, but with one less person around him, he felt that the work became more cumbersome and complicated.

Although there are capable cabinet ministers to help, their number is not large, and their daily work intensity tends to be saturated. It is already great to be able to convey and execute instructions in detail, and the work of clerical work can only be handed over to the regent. The queen comes, this is her duty and obligation.

Obviously the previous life was like this, so I should get used to it, but why do I still feel extra tired?

She started to deal with government affairs at her desk when the sun was still bright, and worked until dark without resting in the middle. When she raised her head again and rubbed her sore temples, she realized that it was Haimo Jiaozi. .

very tired…

I really want to see Li Zishou.

Really didn't want to walk there anymore, so Bai Qingyang returned to Tianshu Palace in a phoenix chariot. In just a few minutes, she couldn't hold back and took a nap.

The lights in the main hall were on, and when they heard the voice of the servant of the Huangmen singing, Lu Xiaoying and Xiao Le rushed out to greet her.

"Empress Empress."

"Miss."

Bai Qingyang: "How is she?"

Lu Xiaoying: "Go back to your mother, it's still the same."

"Really…"

Xiao Le noticed the depression of the master, and quickly added: "Medical officer Hang just came to see, and said that the chamaemasma in His Majesty's body is still very safe, and the injury on the back is also recovering well."

Bai Qingyang nodded: "I see, you go down and rest first, I'll go and see her."

When Lu Xiaoying and Xiao Le heard this, they looked at each other.

Knowing that they were worried, Bai Qingyang said again: "Go and rest, I'm fine."

The two of them each answered yes and withdrew.

A few candles were lit on the bronze candle tree, flickering hot. Bai Qingyang walked around the screen and saw Li Zishou lying on the couch with his eyes closed tightly and breathing very shallowly.

Bai Qingyang lifted the hem of his clothes, sat directly in front of the couch, held Li Zichou's hand, and watched her sleeping face.

The candlelight sprinkled a warm yellow, reflecting on Li Zifu's face, it seemed that she was not so weak anymore, as if she had just fallen into an ordinary dreamland, peaceful and beautiful.

It looked like this, but in fact the temperature on his hands was even lower than that of Bai Qingyang's.

"You said, why did you do this for me?" Bai Qingyang said suddenly, "Did you make yourself like this on purpose to make me feel guilty?"

The other party didn't answer her, but Bai Qingyang didn't care, and continued rambling on.

"Throwing so many government affairs to me, I get dizzy every day, but you sleep soundly."

"If I hadn't replaced you as a regent, I wouldn't even know when you issued the exam papers, and I'm obviously by your side every day."

"I don't know that you have had such an idea. When you wake up, we can choose a state capital to conduct a trial, and you will guide the supervisor."

Speaking of this, Bai Qingyang seemed a little annoyed: "Then I have to subdue the Shuobei people before you wake up, and let them get out of Dasheng's territory."

"I can't help but talk about you again. If you didn't go into the mountains, nothing would happen. You even lied to me that you were going to hunt a wild goose down to send me off..."

"At that time, I was really going to die of anger. Do you really think I'm stupid?"

"Don't say anything about being shot by an arrow, and don't take it seriously if you get poisoned. If you insist on holding a Mid-Autumn Palace banquet, do you really think of yourself as an iron man?"

"..."

"Speaking of which, I haven't had time to appreciate the moon on the Mid-Autumn Festival, but the moon on the 16th is also big and round, and the moonlight is beautiful. It's a pity you didn't see it."

"Actually, I haven't celebrated my birthday for a long time, and this is my most memorable birthday."

"I like the gift you prepared for me very much. I really like it. I have never been so... so... anyway, I am very happy."

"I didn't expect you to know my birthday and prepare such a unique gift. If I don't thank you, I can't do it."

"Let me think about it... You are a monarch and you don't need anything, so can't I just promise you with my body?"

"...Would it be too deviant for two women?"

"No, no, the strange thing is you, you were the one who took me into the palace first."

"..."

"No, you are not her, and she is not you, you are different..."

"I hate her..."

"But if the torture is to meet the test you must go through, then I can bear it."

"I can bear it now, as long as you can come back to me."

"I can wait, but I can't wait for too long. If you are not by my side, what is the difference between my past life where I lived in a muddle?"

"I have always been happy with the situation. Without you, I might never be able to do it."

"If it wasn't for taking advantage of your coma, I wouldn't even be able to express my important emotions, because I'm afraid that my willfulness will cause trouble to you, and I'm also afraid that it will cause irreversible consequences."

"But compared to these, I'm more afraid of not hearing your response. I don't want my heart to end without a cause."

"So wake up quickly, as long as you can wake up, no matter how much pressure, no matter how difficult the dilemma, I can bear it and face it."

"When everything is over, I want to tell you these words again."

"It doesn't matter if you say I'm making trouble for no reason, or you say I'm self-indulgent, just treat me as a rare willful one, and just respond to my wish."

"You have given me so much, and I want to give you something in return."

"Before you wake up, I will take care of your court and protect your mountains and rivers."

"And you, come back as soon as you have a good rest."

Bai Qingyang leaned over and planted a reverent kiss on the sleeping man's forehead.

"May you be well, my Li Zichou, my... sweetheart."

The night was quiet, and only at this time, could she enjoy a moment of leisure, and fall asleep with the other's hand next to her.

//

This is the third day that Yang Dejin and his party set off.

The fatigue caused by the long journey was too much for Yang Dejin, who has always been energetic, but this was not what she cared most about.

"This road is getting narrower and narrower. Could it be the caravan's road..." She held the rein and observed the surrounding environment.

"Prince Yu, don't worry, Chen Feng and I are very familiar with the roads around Yizhou City."

Chen Feng nodded, took her brother's words and continued: "Take this road, you can save more than half of the time."

Li Xunchao also stepped forward immediately: "The goods transported by the caravan are expensive and have a large load. For safety reasons, they will definitely follow the official route.

"The official road is far away, and it will take a lot of time for the caravan to rest and replenish on the way.

"Our footsteps are fast, and we are still more than 300 miles away from Yizhou City. If we take a shortcut, we might be able to stop them before they enter the city."

"Ah..." Yang Dejin nodded thoughtfully, and then asked a very important question, "Is the shortcut safe?"

Chen Feng: "With the two of us here, don't be afraid."

Chen Feng: "Within the jurisdiction of Yizhou, no one dares to make trouble in front of the twin generals."

Yang Dejin: "..." Isn't it unsafe for you to say that? !

The brothers and sisters of the Chen family were dispatched by Bai Qingyang, and followed the mobile raiding team to catch up with the caravan. These two were originally the guards of Yizhou, so they were naturally familiar with the situation around Yizhou, and they were both sons of the Lian family, so they were naturally the best candidates to take over this mission.

As for Li Zishou's side, Bai Qingyang also transferred his cronies to guard Tianshu Palace closely.

Yang Dejin: "Then continue on your way."

Since the brothers and sisters of the Chen family have said so, she has no objection, as long as she lives to bring the antidote back in time, it's not safe, it's not safe.

In their group, there are masters in the palace, guards from the palace, and retainers from the Shilang's mansion. There are nearly fifty people in their group, all of them possess unique skills and are not afraid.

Yang Dejin: "If anything happens, remember to protect me first."

Counseling frankly, speaking with confidence.

The twins looked at each other, and both thought it was a little funny: "Understood."

Li Xunchao also said: "Actually, I'm pretty good at it. We've traveled all over the world and haven't seen anything."

Yang Dejin was pleasantly surprised: "Really?!"

"Yes!" Li Xunchao nodded vigorously, "I have been a businessman with my family since I was a child, and I have encountered bandits and thieves, and none of them can beat them."

Yang Dejin hesitated to speak: "..." In order not to let her crow's mouth manifest, she dried up her silence.

After discovering that she was the only Zhanwu scum in the whole team, she decided to shut up and hug their thighs.

Fortunately, in the past two days, they hurried and drove all the way on the small road leading to Yizhou City, but they really didn't meet anyone who robbed them halfway.

"Hey, is that your caravan?" Yang Dejin suddenly noticed something, she pointed at the little black spot in front of her and shouted at Li Xunchao.

After hearing the words, Li looked over and raised her hand to look over, as if she felt that she couldn't see clearly, she simply stopped the horse, stepped on the saddle and stood on the horse's back.

Yang Dejin was next to her, looking up at her with her mouth wide open in bewilderment: How did you do this?

Li Xunxun saw the familiar flag, and said happily, "That's right, it's my caravan, and they're making a fire to cook!"

"Great! Let's go then." After speaking, Yang Dejin waved to the followers.

"Follow!"

"yes!"

"Oh, that's right." Yang Dejin took out a gold token from his pocket and handed it to Li Xunchao, "This is for you."

Li Xunxun was surprised and said, "What will His Royal Highness Prince Yu do for me, the Queen's order?"

Yang Dejin: "Take this and show it in front of your family."

After hearing this, Li Xunxuan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Prince Yu had such a considerate side. She smiled, but did not refuse, thanked her and took it.

Near sunset, Li's caravan was lighting a fire and cooking. The young thugs who were letting the wind suddenly saw a group of people galloping in this direction. They were afraid that they were looking for trouble.

"Master! Ma'am! Someone is coming!"

"Who is it?"

Father Li took Mother Li out of the carriage, and happened to see the thugs in his caravan holding their knives, wary of anyone coming.

"That person is..." Father Li narrowed his eyes and looked at the leader.

"Hi! Why don't you look for that child!" Mother Li's eyes were sharp, and she immediately recognized that it was the baby girl who had just returned home not long ago.

"Miss? Why is Missy back?"

"Put down the knives, that's our eldest lady!"

"It's only been a few days, and you can't recognize anyone?!"

"It's fine if one person's eyesight is bad, but a group of people can't see it well?!"

The thugs were reprimanded by the boss, and then put away their weapons one after another.

"Woo—" Li Xunxun reined in his horse.

"Looking for it, why are you back?" Father Li and Mother Li went up to meet her, looking at the large group of people behind her and asked.

Li Xunxun sat astride the horse, held the queen's badge in his hand, and said loudly: "I am Li Xun, the imperial envoy of the imperial court, and I am here to requisition the goods of your caravan under the order of the empress of the dynasty."

Yang Dejin frowned from behind, and glanced at her: "..." Li Xun? Isn't she called Li Xunchao?

Why did you give yourself a stage name?

The author has something to say:

Li Xunchang: What's wrong with walking the rivers and lakes and pretending to be a stage name? !
