Shu Blossoms

Chapter 188 Secret Delivery
Qinglan put on a cloak and left the firewood room, carrying a food basket in her hand and hurried to the south all the way.

She didn't notice a figure quietly following behind her.

Zheng Wei thought about the expression on Qinglan's face when she left, she was still so kind and gentle, "You're rotten in your stomach, no one can talk about it! After a few days, see His Highness calm down, I'll plead with His Highness again , it may be impossible to go back to Zhuyuyuan, but at least I can survive."

After speaking, he stroked his hair before turning to leave.

The warmth from her hands still remained on Zheng Wei's hair, and she said a little disappointed: "Did I think wrong, it shouldn't be her? She looks so good."

No one responded to her, and Zheng Wei didn't care, she curled up her legs and waited quietly.
After two hours, Zheng Wei had already fallen asleep, felt a warmth in his body, forced his eyes to look up.

Tuoba Yu was standing in front of her looking at him, Zheng Wei rubbed his face with his hands, and asked sleepily: "Why are you here? Didn't you agree? If someone finds out, all previous efforts will be wasted."

Tuoba Yu shook his head, "It's okay, no one noticed that I came here. I can still do this in my mansion."

Zheng smiled, remembered the business, and hurriedly asked Tuoba Yu, "Where is Qinglan? Where did she go?"

Tuoba Yu was silent for a moment, and then said in a low voice: "Going to the south gate, Mo Qi sent someone to follow."

Zheng Wei also fell silent when she heard the words, it turned out that her previous guess was correct, in the end these words of concern were all false.

After a while, she nodded and forced a smile at Tuoba Yu, "Go back quickly, it's getting late, and the servant girl should get up and clean after a while."

Tuoba Yu didn't leave, but took out something wrapped in cotton cloth from his bosom, walked up to Zheng Wei, squatted down slowly, and put it in her hand.

Zheng Wei instantly felt the warm warmth, she looked up at Tuoba Yu in surprise, Tuoba Yu smiled and motioned her to open it.

She untied the bag on the cotton bag, revealing the small bronze stove inside, and there were still a few pieces of silver charcoal burning inside, which was a bit hot.

ah!This is the small hand stove she picked up a few days ago, but Tuoba Yu did not expect to make it.

She hurriedly wrapped the cotton cloth, looked at Tuoba Yu with a smile and said in surprise: "You still remember it, and even made it."

"I don't know when there will be actions over there, I'm afraid you will be wronged for a while." Tuoba Yu looked at Zheng Wei with some unbearable heart.

Zheng smiled and waved his hands, "You don't know me yet, but now I can suffer all kinds of hardships, that's nothing!"

"It's too cold here, I'll ask Mo Qi to bring you a stove and food every day."

Tuoba Yu said again, "I may be very busy in the future, and I won't be able to take care of you. If you have something to do, you can blame Mo Mo."

"That's right, you have to get busy. You can't be unprepared. If there is trouble outside, don't be a fisherman anymore. Instead, you will become a fisherman's food."

Ever since thinking about those things a few days ago and not being able to understand them, seeing Tuoba Yu has always felt a little uncomfortable these days, and now that Tuoba Yu has sent this hand stove again, Zheng Wei feels even more uncomfortable.

Now that he finished speaking, he rushed him to leave, Tuoba Yu took another deep look at him, turned and left.

Seeing him coming out, Mo Qi, who was waiting outside, rushed up to meet him, and said in a low voice, "Qinglan waited for about a quarter of an hour at the rockery in the southwest, and a boy doing rough work in the front yard came to see her, and then The servant quietly left the mansion, and has already sent someone to follow up. I think there will be a reply soon."

Tuoba Yu only nodded when he heard the words, and told Mo Qi, "Send a few more people to protect the woodshed these days, and escort her away immediately if there is any danger."

Mo Qi took the order, and Tuoba Yu said again: "In the past few days, you quietly send someone to deliver some food and cotton clothes every day, and don't turn off the fire in the stove."

As the two talked, their figures soon disappeared into the courtyard, and the courtyard returned to silence.

Ten days later, Imperial Concubine He Lai, who had been imprisoned for nearly a month, suddenly called her confidantes and gave her a letter, telling her: "Try to find a way to send this letter to He Ba's residence."

The attendant hesitated, "Madam, all of us have been killed and arrested by His Majesty, and the rest of us are also being watched by His Majesty. It may be very difficult to send a letter out! What if the delivery fails? , and cause trouble for you again"

Concubine He Lai sneered, "Am I afraid of causing trouble to me now? I have seen it clearly in this month. Although His Majesty did not expressly decree me to abolish me, I know that what happened last time has touched His Majesty's scales. He did not Killing me immediately is based on the relationship between husband and wife for many years, and it is impossible for him to favor me again."

Concubine He Lai sat on the couch and looked out of the window, sighed for a long time, "I have lost Liu Er, I can't let Xiao Ba be rejected by his father anymore!"

She looked back at her confidant again, and said firmly: "Go to the Central Guard Army and tell him that I don't need her to betray His Majesty, it's just that it's time for him to pay back his life."

The confidant retreated under the orders, and that night she changed into the clothes of other palaces, put on a black cloak, quietly bribed a guard guarding the corner gate, and then quietly went to Donghua gate.

In the duty room of Donghua Gate, his confidant knocked on a door quietly, and the door was opened from the inside shortly afterwards, and it was He Lancheng, the Central Guard who was on duty tonight, who came out.

He Lancheng saw the person coming through the moonlight, his eyes widened suddenly, he looked around in horror, and pulled her into the house with a stern look in his eyes, "You guys are dying, you dare to come here at this time! Do you know This will kill the empress!"

"Your Majesty told me to tell you that it's time for you to pay back her life!"

He Lancheng's complexion changed drastically when he heard the words, and his breathing seemed to become much more difficult. After a long time, he exhaled forcefully, and said with difficulty: "What do you want me to do?"

"Send me out of the palace, or the Central Guards will go to Heba mansion in person."

The confidant replied in a low voice.

He Lancheng's complexion changed again, and he argued: "Nowadays, everyone in Pingcheng is in danger, and the gates of Heba Mansion are closed. Even if you go out of the palace gate, you can't enter Heba Mansion! What's more, the gate guards in all palaces are all guards. The commander and the guards are on duty together, I can't and can't send you out of the palace!"

The confidant smiled slightly, and said softly: "The empress said, she doesn't want the Central Guards to disobey His Majesty's imperial decree, as long as the Central Guards do this well, your life will be paid back."

He Lancheng hesitated for a long time, finally gritted his teeth and took the letter from his confidant, carefully put it into his arms, and said to his confidant: "Go back quickly, don't be found out, and cause trouble for your mother."

"Of course I have to go back." The confidant nodded, and when he turned to leave, he looked back at He Lancheng, "The Central Guards won't turn around and send this letter to His Majesty, will they? Your mother said that she will remember the events of that year firmly in her heart." Yes, the Empress has always admired the Central Guard Army as a warrior who is not afraid of death in Wei! The Central Guard Army will not let the Empress down, right!"

He Lancheng stood with his hands behind his back, looked at her solemnly and said solemnly: "Don't worry, I, He Lancheng, can sit upright, since I have agreed to this matter, I won't act like a villain in person! "
