Chapter 196 She Was Really Scared
Xu Jiao turned his head to look at the curtain that had been lifted from the outside with a dazed gaze, looking at her with concern, and the heart hanging in his throat slowly fell back.

"What time is it?" She asked in a hoarse voice, looking behind the snow, the lights were on in the palace, but it was dark outside the window, and the night in the palace seemed to be thicker than other places, making people feel There is a suffocation that is hard to breathe, and I can't wait to escape.

"When I was ugly." Negative Xue replied in a low voice.Negative snow was picked up in a hurry from Jing Mansion by the Eldest Princess in the early morning of this morning. She was afraid of alarming Mrs. Zhao. She only said that Hongying had contracted a cold after entering the palace. up close.There was no one around the princess to serve her, so she called Neg Xue over.

It was only after she entered the palace that she found out that her princess had experienced such a dangerous thing last night, she didn't dare to show anything on her face, but secretly cried twice.The princess of her family grew up with gold and jade since she was a child, and was pampered by the prince as if she was a jewel in the palm of her hand. How long has she suffered such pain?

At night, Lingxue didn't dare to close her eyes, so she just sat on the edge of the bed and watched.Hearing Xu Jiao's babbling in a nightmare, he felt a tight pain in his heart, but before he opened the curtain, he had quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Xu Jiao didn't look at the snow, but turned to look at the other bed separated by the screen, that place was quiet, not to mention, she made such a fuss, there was no movement at the other end, obviously no one was there, but , It's time now. "Where is Ah Wan?" She asked softly.

"At night, the empress dowager was not well, and the Lord Shoukang went to the main hall to attend to the sick." This time, the empress dowager's illness was particularly serious.Seeing Xu Jiao suddenly looking at her when she heard the words, even though she didn't say anything, Neg Xue immediately understood, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, princess, Your Highness the eldest princess has specifically explained that you are still sick, it's better to take good care of your illness, the queen mother There are her and Shoukang County Lord, and there are so many nobles, you are not missing. Take care of yourself first, just don't make trouble for her."

Xu Jiao didn't know that in her situation, it was still a problem to take care of herself, so how could she talk about taking care of others?Xu Jiao turned her head to look at Negative Snow, and naturally noticed the red and wet corners of her eyes and the faint blue shadows under her eyes, she couldn't help but frowned and said, "Go down and rest!" As soon as the corner of Negative Xue's mouth moved, she had already raised her voice. Shen said, "Don't say no, how many hours can you stay awake? If you don't rest well, how can you protect and take care of me? I slept too much during the day, and I don't want to sleep now, and my mother arranged Don't worry about other people, you will be fine, go rest with peace of mind."

Lingxue was unwilling, but seeing Xu Jiao looking at her resolutely, after a moment of pondering, Lingxue could only answer "Yes", then stood up, and under Xu Jiao's urging gaze, turned her head three times at a time Go out of the bedroom.

The door was gently closed, and Xu Jiao was the only one left in the huge bedroom.The boundless silence seemed to come from all directions, Xu Jiao raised his arms and hugged himself tightly, and buried himself between his knees, with tears streaming down uncontrollably, how many times he brushed shoulders with death It's been over, but this time, she was really scared.

Under the same night sky, there are also sleepless people.

After seeing the eldest princess, He Lianshu didn't go back to the mansion immediately, but went to Yiyu Mountain.This Yiyu Mountain is just outside the north gate of the palace city. It is not high, but it is already a natural barrier for the north gate of the palace city. Outside the Yiyu Mountain is Gyeonggi Daying.This kind of Yiyu Mountain is naturally guarded by people, but He Lianshu climbed up it quietly with people as if entering a land without people.

There is no star and no moon, the dark night is like water, the north wind blows with the already biting chill, blowing the shadows of the trees all over the mountain. At this time of year, most of the branches and leaves of the trees on the mountain have withered, leaving only dead branches and fallen leaves. Shaking, like a group of demons dancing.

He Lianshu was wearing such a thin black strong suit, standing at the peak of the mountain, looking at the huge palace city where there are still lights flickering under his feet, but it looks like a giant beast crouching, his eyes seem to be infected The night is deep and cool, everything can be immersed in it, without trace.

There were footsteps behind him, it was Su Le who came close to him, and said softly, "I have already brought the message to Princess Changning, she said, let you wait for her news."

He Lianshu nodded lightly, his eyes were still fixed on the palace city under his feet.

Su Le glanced at him, and asked curiously, "Ashu, do you think Princess Changning can really persuade Li Huan to participate in this matter? Li Huan is not stupid. If something goes wrong in this matter, we will be fine." It's light, but his Li family might cause a show, so he might not be willing to take the risk, would he?"

"Li Huan is not stupid. Of course he knows that even without this matter, their Li family would not be able to survive alone. Why don't you just sell me, the eldest princess, and the favor of the Jing family so that we can meet each other in the future? Besides, don't underestimate women's treatment of men. Li Huan will not take lightly the words of Princess Changning. And she is the sister of Princess Changning, so she will definitely not sit idly by. As long as she moves, Li Huan will not worry about not moving. "He Lianshu's voice didn't fluctuate at all, it was a little cold indifferently.

Su Le nodded again and again, "Of course we can't underestimate the influence of women on men, but, Ashu, are you speaking from experience?"

However, He Lianshu didn't seem to hear Su Le's teasing at all, and his eyes were still looking straight in the direction of Miyagi.

Su Le took a few glances. No matter how majestic the palace city is during the day, it is nothing more than a series of palaces at night. Although there are lamps and shadows, they are not enough to illuminate the huge palace city. It is dark and there is nothing to see. .But he can understand that what He Lianshu is looking at is not the palace city, but wants to penetrate the maze of the night and the many palaces in the palace city, and see the person he wants to see, right?
"A Shu, do you regret it?" Su Le asked suddenly.

The question was vague, but He Lianshu's eyes flickered for a moment, and after a few breaths of silence, he shook his head, "No!"

They have eyes and ears in the palace, Xu Jiao's midnight panic last night could have been avoided, but when He Lianshu heard the urgent news from the palace, after a moment of silence, he gave the order to wait and see what happened.Last night, he knew everything Xu Jiao experienced, and he could even be said to have been on the sidelines all the time, but he persuaded the people under his hands, as well as himself, not to rescue him.

He Lianshu has always been very calm, so calm that he was cold-blooded, but Su Le knew how hard he had endured, otherwise, he would not have appeared here and now.

"If you made a move last night, it would be just to stop the boiling water. If you want to do it once and for all, you have to draw the fire from the bottom of the pot, but before that, no matter how difficult this step is, none of us can help, she can only go by herself, and she must go." He Lianshu Said calmly.

Su Le naturally knew and knew that He Lianshu was not explaining to him.It's just that he knows these truths in his heart, and he has already made a decision, and the matter has even passed, but this muttering may not make his heart less tormented.
