concubines

Chapter 299 Thanks
Zhou Shuxuan admitted it straight away, and said, "It's me."

Definitely rejoice.

The child hasn't gone back so late, he should be panicked.

Zhou Shuxuan wanted to reach out to reach him, but he couldn't reach him, and said anxiously to Qingxi, "Don't be afraid, uncle is here to save you, don't cover your sister's mouth."

It's not good if you are suffocated or choked.

Qingxi didn't cover Meimei's mouth anymore. She glanced down and said calmly, "But you are so tall, it seems that you can't save us. I'll wait for auntie." Qingxi moved while talking, almost fell off the wall.

Zhou Shuxuan was terrified watching it, Meimei cried louder at this time, Zhou Shuxuan was also anxious and couldn't wait any longer.Waiting for his aunt to come over may not be a good solution, and it will scare people later.

Zhou Shuxuan thought of a way, "You jump off with your sister in your arms, and I'll let someone catch you."

The people who followed were all standing under the wall, and they all stretched out their hands to catch them.Qingxi glanced down, hugged Meimei tightly and said, "No, my aunt told me that there are a lot of bad people out there, and told me not to play with them, especially those who wear this kind of clothes. I can't believe them except those I know. , stay far away."

Miao Li is worried that there are so many people in the palace, if anyone finds her uncomfortable, it will be bad for her to do something to the child.So Miao Li told Guo Qingxi many times that the court ladies and eunuchs should not be trusted except when they meet every day, Qingxi remembers this very firmly.

"Are you afraid? Don't be afraid." Zhou Shuxuan then calmed down and tried to think of a way.

"I'm not particularly scared, but my sister seems to be hungry. She keeps crying. I'm also a little hungry, but I haven't gone back now. My aunt probably won't let me eat. I'm sure I'll be hungry until tomorrow morning. I'd rather have a snack. I asked Aunt Fu to do it. I will probably be beaten when I go back, so I don’t want to think about anything to eat.” Qingxi sat on the wall and listened to Meimei’s crying, thinking nonstop.

Zhou Shuxuan really convinced him now, how old is he like a child?At this time, I don't cry or make trouble, and I am still thinking about what to eat.

Seeing him talking more and more happily, sitting on the wall seemed to be a little wobbly, and with Meimei restlessly writhing in his arms, Zhou Shuxuan was extremely afraid that he would fall.So he let the eunuch go away, and stretched out his hand under the wall.

"You jump down with your sister in your arms, and I'll catch you."

Qingxi recalled what Miaoli had said to him. It didn't say that his uncle was untrustworthy. It seemed that he was not allowed to call him uncle. If he wanted to call him emperor, there was nothing else.

Qingxi glanced down again, and asked, "Will you definitely catch the three of us?"

Zhou Shuxuan didn't quite hear what he was saying, so he nodded, "I will, you jump off."

"You must catch me." Qingxi ordered again, then moved a little to the side, then kicked off the wall and fell down, hitting Zhou Shuxuan's arms.

It was much heavier than Zhou Shuxuan imagined, it seemed to be more than the weight of two children.And it doesn't look like a soft child, it's a little bit hard, like a stone or something.

Severe pain came from the arm, the place is not particularly high, and the two children are not so heavy.It's just that Qingxi is carrying something on his body, which seems to have poked his previous wound.

Feeling that he was safely caught, Qingxi looked at Zhou Shuxuan and said, "Uncle is amazing, he has caught us, I want to go down."

Zhou Shuxuan endured the pain and put him on the ground, and took a closer look at it by the light of the lantern, only to find the problem. He seemed to be carrying a small stone statue on his back, the kind that was placed on the pillar or the eaves.It was that thing that poked his wound just now.

Zhou Shuxuan lowered his head and asked, "How did you get up there?"

"From there, there was a stone table by the wall, and there were many stones. I stacked the stones and climbed up, but after I went up, the stones fell down, and there was no way to go down."

This kind of operation... Zhou Shuxuan couldn't imagine that he did it.

Zhou Shuxuan couldn't believe it and asked, "You climbed up with your sister in your arms?"

"No." Qingxi patted the straps on his body and said, "I went up with my sister on my back, but after I went up, there was this little lion, so I took my sister off and put the little lion on my back. .”

The person who said these few words was really terrified, and he didn't dare to think about how he did it alone. If there was a little accident, the matter would have another result.

Qingxi checked and found that she was fine, and there was no pain.The younger sister is still crying, crying loudly, she should not be broken.The little lion is also well behind, and there are no problems.

Nothing happened, so Qingxi hugged Meimei and kowtowed on the ground, saying: "Thank you, the emperor, for saving the three of us. The adults in the family will come to thank you later. Auntie may still be waiting for me. I'll go back now." gone."

With one on his back and another in his arms, he was just a child, and he wobbled when he walked.It was so dark, how could he rest assured that he would go alone.

Zhou Shuxuan stopped him again, "Wait, I'll take you...I'll have someone take you back"

Miao Li was going crazy in Qingquan Palace, she had exhausted all her strength, she couldn't find any way to continue, and was carried back.

She has been searching for several hours, and if she can't find it anymore, she will have someone fish it in the well, because she really can't think of other possibilities.

Miao Li waited in the room for a long time, and Xi Mammy suddenly ran in and said, "Mother, the child has come back, the emperor sent someone to bring it back."

Miaoli only heard the first half of the sentence, and ran out. Seeing that Qingxi and Meimei were outside without any injuries, she put her heart back into her stomach.

When Qingxi saw her, he handed Meimei to her hand and said, "Auntie, my sister is hungry. She cried for a long time just now, and now she has fallen asleep."

Miao Li hurriedly asked someone to get food, and took him back to the house. "Where did you go?"

Qingxi told the whole story of the afternoon, including the scene of being rescued just now.Then he untied the straps and hugged his little lion, "I really like this, but Mr. Zhuo said that I can't play with those. I saw a broken one there, so I climbed up to get it off. Auntie, I was wrong."

Miao Li is in no mood to punish him now, as long as she comes back.Miao Li leaned back on the chair and asked someone to take him to the back, take a shower and change clothes.

She is covered in cold sweat now, and can finally take a good breath.Mother Xi pointed to the straps on the table and said, "Look, Madam."

There was something dark red on the light-colored straps, and after careful identification, it seemed to be blood.

But Qingxi was not injured, that guy was still alive and kicking, not even in the slightest bit of bad spirits.Meimei also checked just now, and she was not injured.

Mammy Xi glanced at her and said, "Could it be the emperor's? The young master said just now that the emperor picked them up. The emperor already has a wound on his arm, and it is very likely that it will be ruptured."

This is indeed possible, but Miao Li didn't say much.

Mother Xi said again: "Don't mention anything else, the emperor has done such a great favor and saved the child, logically speaking, he should come to the door to thank him."

Miao Li was silent for a while, and then said: "Now let someone send some of the Jinchuang medicine I prepared, and let uncle enter the palace tomorrow. Go to the emperor to thank him, and take the two children back by the way."

A child has parents, and parents should come to thank her. She can go or not.But it's better not to provoke so many right and wrong, it's best not to go.

Mammy Xi sighed, she really has countless ways not to meet each other.

Miao Li only said thank you in her heart.This time I really thank him very much. As for how to thank him, I will talk about it later.

Zhou Shuxuan felt some pain in his arm, but he didn't find any bleeding, so he went all the way to Yongshou Palace.Although there was a small episode, business still had to be done.

He was wearing dark clothes, and no one could see it in Jintai Concubine's Palace.

Concubine Jin knew that he was impatient, so she opened the letter on the spot, glanced at it, and handed it to him.

Zhou Shuxuan frowned more and more, the attitude of Xichang Kingdom could only be regarded as reluctant.It was said inside and out that he seemed to be treating Concubine Jin badly, which affected the normal exchanges between the two countries.It means that they are not good to their princesses, how can they be good to their subjects, and no exchanges between the two countries are allowed.

This logic... Zhou Shuxuan really didn't know how to judge it.

These are not the main problems. The main problem is that in order to verify their own claims, or to restore the relationship between the two countries, they decided to marry another princess to come and get married, or let them marry a princess in the past.If you marry in the past, you must be a princess, and they don't recognize the daughter of the clan.

Zhou Shuxuan has no children yet, and certainly no princess.Among the eldest princesses, the older ones have already been born, and the younger ones are only seven or eight years old, and none of them are old enough to get married.As for the eldest princess, there is only one unmarried one, and that one is absolutely impossible to go out and get married.

It's embarrassing.

Concubine Jin read the letter again, and said casually: "There is no princess suitable for marriage in our country, so only the emperor will marry."

Zhou Shuxuan tilted his head and asked, "Married?!"

Sending over and getting married mean two things. At this time, the post is still vacant. If you want to marry, you have to marry a wife.

"They seem to mean that. They don't want to send both daughters to be concubines."

That's impossible, he can't marry another person to be the queen, it's been a bloody lesson before.A woman's mind really can't guess, maybe it was all good before, and she might make those conspiracies right away.

What's more, if he sent another princess over, he wouldn't let the princess do whatever she wanted in the harem.Impossible, Xichang is not the only neighboring country, and establishing a queen is definitely not the solution to the relationship between the two countries.

But it is absolutely impossible to fight. Think again, there must be a way.
