Poor children

Chapter 190

"Poverty, are you awake!?" Tiedan'er came to visit Poverty early in the morning. "Girl Wu'er, why didn't you tell me when you woke up..."

"It's so late at night, I didn't ask her to disturb you to rest." Even though he woke up, he still felt a little weak after not eating a grain of rice for so many days. "Where is the boss? Why don't you see him?"

"Oh, the master came here in the morning..." Wu'er quickly replied, "I saw that my master you were still sleeping. I felt relieved when I heard that you were awake, so I set off early in the morning to see Princess Zitong. I think the king has settled down in the capital. It’s something that needs to be seen.”

After hearing this, Pao'er was silent for a long time, and then said to Tiedan'er, "Where is Hong Yue? Where are Lai Bao and Chan Yu?"

Tiedan'er poured a glass of water into the poor boy's hand and sat on the stool beside the bed, but didn't know how to speak.

When Paoer saw that he was hesitant to speak, he became even more anxious, "What happened? What happened? You just tell me..."

"After we regained the northwest, the first thing we did was to look for them. We heard they lived in a courtyard outside the city, but we didn't see anyone when we went there. At this time, we didn't know where they had gone. …”

"Missed...missed?" Paoer weakly leaned on the pillow.

"Don't be so anxious. I have sent many people to look for it. Sooner or later they will be found," Tiedan'er comforted.

"Brother said so, of course I believe it, but I don't know how much more suffering they have to suffer outside..." Poor rubbed his painful temple, "How is the capital now?"

"I don't know exactly what happened. I just rushed in to save you, and I don't know anything else. Just two days ago, when Gao Zijing sent the imperial doctor from the previous dynasty over, we had a few words and said that there was a problem in the city. There are still some people who are loyal to the previous dynasty, and the civil strife has not ended, and it is not yet stable..." Tiedan'er said this and suddenly thought of what Tianxing was going to say, "The king has sent a message, telling you to stay here with peace of mind until the civil strife. Once things are settled, I will come to greet you in person..."

"Hongwen...Hongwen, okay?" Pao'er didn't seem to care what happened to Tianxing, he only thought about these children.

"Hongwen is fine. He is helping his father. He heard that you were sick and clamored to come and see you. However, the king has many things to do and he doesn't have many trustworthy people, so he never left," Tie Dan'er said.
"As long as he's fine..." Paoer leaned back on the pillow again, "Where's my father?"

"Elder brother saved them and sent them back to the palace. The city is in chaos. Because of your father's relationship, the king sent many soldiers to guard them, for fear that something might go wrong," Tiedan'er answered.
"What are you afraid of? He's afraid that my father will take the opportunity to cause trouble for him..." Pao'er asked again, "Has my father ever done anything?"

"Then I don't know. Gao Zijing came and left in a hurry and didn't say a few words..."

Pao'er nodded when she heard the words. Maybe she felt tired after saying a few more words. At this time, she closed her eyes heavily again. Seeing that she seemed to be asleep again, Tiedan'er helped her tuck the quilt, and then Went out quietly

At night, Pao'er slowly woke up again and saw Wu'er sitting at the table under the oil lamp, doing needlework awkwardly, pricking his hand several times.

"If you can't do it, why force yourself to do it?" Paoer sat up and laughed.

Seeing that the pauper had woken up, Wu'er quickly put down her needlework and poured a cup of tea. "There are vulgar men on this mountain. They can't compare to the embroiderers in the palace. I can only learn to make some by myself. I'm so angry about that little one." The embroidery needle is harder to hold than the sword..."

"Fortunately, it's embroidery needles. If you use swords and swords like this, your arm may have disappeared a long time ago." Poor joked
"Master, please don't laugh at me. I've been able to hold a sword since I was young, but I've never held this needle and thread before. Naturally, I'm clumsy..." Wu'er couldn't help but laugh.

"Please tidy up." The pauper lifted the quilt and got off the bed, and went to the desk to look for pen and paper. "Master, you are not well yet. How can you get out of bed? Be careful of getting cold again." Wu'er hurriedly took some clothes. Put it on the poor

"It's okay. I know my own situation well. I'll leave a message to General Huang. You go and clean up. Ask someone to prepare two horses. Let's go down the mountain now," said the poor man.

"Going down the mountain? It's late at night..." Wu'er couldn't help feeling a little worried, "It's cool in the night, and your body is weak. What's the rush? Why don't you go until dawn?"

"I don't want to wait any longer. I have an idea in my mind. Maybe I know where Hong Yue is. I need to go and verify it myself." While talking to Wu'er, Pao'er wrote the note and put all the clothes away. wear well

Wu'er also quickly packed up his things, and the master and servant walked out of the room and walked to the stables. Fortunately, it was a full moon day, and the big and round bright moon in the sky illuminated the outside as if it were daytime. It’s really difficult to ride a horse at night

He woke up the brother in charge of the stables, hitched up two horses, got on their horses, and galloped towards the capital under the moonlight...

The next morning, when Tiedan'er came over again and saw the note, the two of them had already entered the capital and returned to the Fourth Prince's Mansion.

Tiedan'er was worried, but the second master of the village had not returned to the capital. When the master left, he entrusted the village to take care of him. It was useless no matter how anxious he was at this moment. Being entrusted by others and loyal to others, he must leave at this moment. It doesn’t work…

Early in the morning, the sun had just risen, and the main door of the palace had just been opened, and the poor man parked his horse in front of the door.
"Hey! Why is it you, girl..." Menzi hurriedly ran over and grabbed the horse's reins.

"Is my father up?" Paoer jumped off the horse.
"I don't know, little one. He opened the door as soon as he got up. Things in the yard are not under his control..." Menzi replied.

Before he could finish speaking, Pao'er hurriedly went to the yard, and Wu'er hurriedly followed.

As soon as I arrived outside the prince's bedroom, I was stopped by the mistress.

"Three guards..." Pao'er shouted, "This time I don't have to hide my identity anymore, and I can no longer be driven by others. I was really offended before!"

"What are you talking about, girl? The mistress is still the mistress. It was the same as it was in the past. It was inconvenient to reveal the identity in the past. It was just to fulfill the duty of the bodyguard. What's the difference now?" the mistress said.

"Is my father up?" Paoer's mind is not on him.
"Your Majesty went to bed late yesterday. I'm afraid I won't get up that early today. I'd better go to the backyard first and have a short rest. When you wake up, I'll report to you, okay?" The mistress asked the poor boy to leave.
Seeing this, the poor boy had no choice but to give up and go to the backyard for now, and then come back when the prince wakes up...

After many days, she should indeed go to see the second wife and greet her. She must have been very frightened that day, and her sister-in-law who had just given birth not long ago and was still very weak

Thinking of Sheng Rongwen, she suddenly thought that her two little nephews were still at Qingfeng Guan, so she told Wu'er a few words, telling Wu'er not to rest and to rush to Qingfeng Guan to pick him up first. As a mother, she knew very well Sheng Rongwen's mood, his nephew is still young, I'm afraid it will be a torment to be apart for one more hour...
