You care about me, Uncle Regent?
Baili Mingyue was silent for a moment before nodding his head seriously, tacitly agreeing.
The person he loved the most?
She should be one. At least, she was one before!
"Then can I ask, where is she now? Why not be with you? " Hong Zhong's eyes flickered, her face was filled with gossips. Before she teleported to this world, no matter if it was a novel or a melodrama, she had read many sad and secret annals of royal love. Aiyo, was she finally going to see it for real?
Hearing these words, Baili Mingyue's face turned even gloomier. He slowly stood up and his gaze drifted toward the pavilion in Rose Pavilion. After a long time, until Hong Zhong thought that he wouldn't answer anymore, the cold voice of her slowly drifted over: "She, has already been dead for many years."
Hong Zhong carefully looked at Baili Mingyue, and stuck her tongue out, as if she had said the wrong thing. "Um, sorry, I didn't mean to, I swear!" After saying that, she raised her three fingers with a serious expression.
He then looked away indifferently, "Those who do not know are not guilty."
He followed his gaze and said, "Actually, you don't have to be this depressed. I heard from someone that after a kind-hearted person dies, they will become stars in the sky, guarding the people you care about. The woman you care about, will definitely care about you too.
Would she miss him?
This question echoed in Baili Mingyue's mind several times. Finally, she smiled. Yes, she would definitely worry about him too.
Seeing Baili Mingyue's expression change, Hong Zhong wondered if she had said something wrong, and this big boss was not one to be offended, if she was careless, and ended up losing her life, she might as well find an excuse to leave: "Since I've already guessed it, uncle, you must remember to owe me a reward, okay?"
"Alright." Ye Zichen nodded in agreement.
Hong Zhong shook her ankles and realised that she was almost recovered. "I think the banquet is almost over, Second Brother probably needs to find me, I need to go, goodbye, Uncle."
Seeing that she was looking for a reason to leave, Baili Mingyue didn't stop her, but nodded as she watched her leave.
Just as Hong Zhong walked a few steps forward, he suddenly spoke out. "Girl."
"Eh?" Hong Zhong turned around and looked at him with suspicion. In fact, her heart was in turmoil. Could he have reneged on her promise?
"Have you ever gone back to the Shengjing City alone?" It was known to the world that the General Zhenguo guarded the Jinzhou City all year round, and Hong Zhong had grown up in the Jinzhou City all her life.
"Nope." Although he did not have much of an impression of the past, but after last night's discussion, he had a general understanding of Hong Zhong and the others. This Hong Zhong had grown up in the Jinzhou City and had never left.
"Then, other than yesterday, have you ever seen Ben Wang?" Baili Mingyue asked again.
When Hong Zhong heard this, her eyebrows twitched. She stared at Baili Mingyue seriously and said: "No."
Hearing this, Baili Mingyue lowered her eyes and let out a small sigh. Her voice sounded as if she was speaking to Hong Zhong, but also to herself, "That's right, Zhong Er grew up in the Jinzhou City since she was young. How could she possibly have seen this duke before?" In fact, he knew that they had never seen one before. But, in these ten years, how could she explain the dream that happened day after day?
In the end, Baili Mingyue tilted her head to look at Hong Zhong, her eyes that were as beautiful as a bright moon revealed an indescribable seriousness: "Little girl, in this palace, anyone can offend anyone, but Yi Chen is the emperor of the Southern Qi. If it's not necessary, it's best not to touch his bottom line again and again." To be able to escape from his grasp once or twice could be said to be very fortunate. However, there was not a single overlord who could allow others to challenge his bottom line again and again.
Hong Zhong lowered her eyes and thought for a moment. Baili Mingyue's words were paired with his, it seemed like he knew that was going to take revenge on him. And now he was reminding him not to offend Baili Yi Chen again?
After a moment of contemplation, he said a question that had been haunting him since last night, "Can I interpret that as the Regent's Uncle caring about me?" Since last night, she had always felt that this Regent's feelings for Hong Zhong were very strange!
A smile appeared on Baili Mingyue's pale face, and she nodded slightly, "Alright." This girl was too suspicious.
"But why should you care about me?" The doubt in his heart deepened, he didn't seem to have any relationship with him. And last night, she seemed to be threatening to beat him up until he was looking for his teeth all over the floor.
"Because... "You are you!"
A few cold words drifted over. Baili Yu then turned around and stepped on a flower petal. Step by step, he left. This left a huge question mark on Hong Zhong's head.
Because you are you?!
What did that mean?
… ….
After leaving Rose Pavilion, he met the elegance who was looking for him. At this moment, the luncheon had already ended, and because the Red War was the young general of a country, he was called over by Baili Yi Chen to discuss military affairs. The horse carriage which the Red War had arranged was already waiting for him at the entrance of the palace.
Once he returned to his residence, Hong Zhong locked himself in his room and elegantly found a pen and paper. After all, as an engineering graduate with outstanding results in the twenty-first century, it was absolutely easy for her to write and draw blueprints for machines and the like.
Actually, it wasn't just the mechanical design. As long as it was something that she had seen before, she would be able to draw the blueprints. The one time she was most proud of was when she tore down the gun that belonged to the SWAT sisters, drew a blueprint, modified it, and used the tools and accessories that Taobao bought to secretly create an improved SWAT gun. Of course, other than elder sister, no one knew about this!
At the moment, as a patient with advanced cancer, she didn't want to take the number 11 bus every day in her ancient life. So the first thing she did was to travel by car. It was a very serious and urgent problem!
After spending an entire afternoon, Hong Zhong took out the completed design blueprints in her hands and hurriedly found elegance, preparing to go out again. This time, she went to the iron shop from last time, because she was anxious, Hong Zhong didn't even have time to eat dinner before she went out.
The night on Shengjing City Street was also bustling with noise and excitement. As he sat on the carriage, Hong Zhong realized that he had not eaten dinner. At this moment, his stomach was growling an empty fort strategy, "My stomach is a little hungry.
