After the first fool

Chapter 71 Why bother why?

Bai Qingluo's eyes trembled slightly, like joy, joy, and helplessness, "Why do you think I should make a move?"

Or, in her heart, what is he?
Bai Qingluo suddenly wanted to ask him that, but felt it was too abrupt.

Mo Xiaoran was startled, and then sneered, "Ah, I originally thought that you should be a hero who likes to save people. Seeing weak women being humiliated, as a man, shouldn't you take action?"

Her heart was trembling, but she subconsciously found an unreasonable reason to cover up her panic at this moment.

"In your eyes, I turned out to be an unrivaled hero who would be rescued by anyone?" Bai Qingluo smiled mockingly, his eyes were deep, as if he was blowing snow all over the sky, his air-conditioning was oppressive, Even Qingfeng who was at the side was frightened by the coldness so that cold sweat broke out from his palms.

He secretly raised his head and took a look at Mo Xiaoran, only to see that her expression remained unchanged, and he couldn't help admiring from the bottom of his heart. She is indeed a woman who can make the master treat her differently. With this ability to dare to face danger in front of the master, she Surprising enough.

Mo Xiaoran's back stiffened, feeling the chill from Bai Qingluo, she raised her head stubbornly, and looked back at him, "I don't know who you are, all I know is that you are not welcome here."

"Very good." Bai Qingluo smiled coldly, the magic talisman in his palm was crushed to pieces by his powerful internal force, and fell to the ground from between his fingers, his brows were cold, and he flew away from the window, unexpectedly Without even looking at Mo Xiaoran, Qingfeng stomped her feet on the spot, and couldn't help but say, "Actually, the master has been secretly caring about you. This time, the palace maid had an accident in the Palace of Compassion and Peace. After the master found out, , I have already ordered me to secretly protect her life, and if she is found to be seriously injured, even if she is in danger of being arrested, I must first save the life of that court lady."

Mo Xiaoran was stunned, she didn't know whether to believe this man's words.

"Qingfeng, are you still leaving?" Bai Qingluo's hoarse voice came from the air, as if floating down from the clouds.

Did she really misunderstand Bai Qingluo?
Seeing the two of them flying out of Fengqi Palace, and then looking at the pile of white powder on the ground, she felt a little uncomfortable, how much self-blame, how much guilt, how much anger.

Doesn't that person know how to explain?
Just let her misunderstand?Let her vent her anger?
Mo Xiaoran rubbed the center of her brows, turned over from the bed, took out a handkerchief, squatted on the ground, wrapped the powder of the talisman in the handkerchief, stuffed it into her bosom and placed it carefully.

The next time she sees Bai Qingluo again, maybe she should apologize to him and thank him.

I just don't know if that cold and dirty man will be so stingy that he will never appear in front of her again.

Mo Xiaoran went to bed with her clothes on, and pressed her hands on her chest, which happened to be where the handkerchief was. This time, she quickly fell asleep, and she slept peacefully until dawn without a dream.

"Master, why didn't you explain to the queen?" Qingfeng followed Bai Qingluo all the way out of the palace, and then asked the doubts in his heart. He could see that the master obviously cared about the queen, but why he would rather let the other party misunderstand, Also unwilling to explain aloud?

Bai Qingluo glanced at him sideways, her eyes unmoved, and the corner of her mouth curled up in an indifferent arc: "Why should I explain?"

He has had too many firsts with this woman. It can be said that she is the first woman who has allowed him to be so pampered and caring.

In the past, Bai Qingluo thought he had a heart of stone. Even if someone committed suicide in front of him, he would not blink an eye. As long as there was the slightest threat to Jiangshan Sheji, he would be cruel and send them to see the King of Hades.

But only this Mo Xiaoran, see you for the first time, see you again, until now.

Let him make an exception time and time again, let him set a precedent again and again.

His heart seemed to have slipped a small hole during the few short meetings with her.

The coldness on Bai Qingluo's face seemed to dissipate a lot at this moment. Under the moonlight, his monstrous face became softer, "You stay by her side, this time, I want you to protect her all the time." The safety of her, if she loses a hair, it is for you to ask."

Qingfeng shuddered, he knew that the master was serious, let him, a hidden guard who was only responsible for protecting the master and obeying the master's orders, to protect the queen?

Master, do you really have unreasonable thoughts about this woman?Could it be that you always want to rob someone with your nephew?
Don't tell me, the more Qingfeng thinks about it, the more he feels that his black-hearted master can really do this kind of thing.

"I will fall back to the imperial city every month and follow the waves, and you will stay by her side, do you hear me?" Bai Qingluo ordered calmly.

"Master, Zhuyue is currently training soldiers and horses for you in the stronghold, transfer him back to the stronghold..." Qingfeng asked the doubts in his heart, he, Zhuyue, and Suifeng are all hidden guards beside the master , each department has a position, and they rarely meet each other on weekdays.

Month after month, the master is secretly training soldiers and horses to prepare for future contingencies, while Sui Lang is in charge of the master's stores all over the three kingdoms. If the two of them are transferred back, who will replace them?
"Could it be possible that without the general, my soldiers will become a mess?" Bai Qingluo's face was cold, and he said slowly: "Zixu is in charge, and the courtiers of Lanyu Kingdom have suggested that they want to go to Dongyao, congratulate Zixu for taking charge Joy, I always feel that they came here with bad intentions, let Zhuyue and Suilang go back to the imperial city as a warning."

"Master, is this news reliable?" Qingfeng also looked solemn at this time. Although Dongyao and Lan Yu have coexisted peacefully for many years, in fact, Lan Yu has been secretly training soldiers and horses, and wants to annex Dongyao and Xuanyuan. Among the two countries, Dongyao had the weakest military force and became Lan Yu's first target.

This time Bai Zixu is in charge, if Lan Yu sends someone to come, I'm afraid the person who came here is really not good.

"Just do what I say, when will you learn to question my orders?" Bai Qingluo narrowed his eyes displeased, his mighty inner strength soared in an instant, and a strong wind rose from his feet, his black color The Yi Jue flew in the air, drawing sharp arcs.

His breath was cold, like an emperor in the dark night, cold and domineering, but also dangerous to make people feel chilled.

Qingfeng's heart trembled, maybe it was Bai Qingluo's abnormality these days that made him forget his duty as a hidden guard, and he would question his master's order aloud, he lowered his head in annoyance, with a strong shame on his face And annoyed: "Yes, the slave overstepped."

It seems that the gentleness of the master still only belongs to that woman in the palace.

When Qingfeng thought of Bai Qingluo's gentleness when facing Mo Xiaoran, and compared it with himself, it was inevitable that he would feel uncomfortable for a while.

"By the way, I would like to tell all the generals on the border to pay close attention to Lan Yu's movements and make preparations early." Bai Qingluo raised his head and looked at the sky covered by dark clouds. This time, the news he received from Lan Yu's country is probably [-]% true. real.

Zixu, Lan Yu and Xuanyuan are coveting the Bai family's country outside, and the two parties in the court are in endless disputes.

How exactly are you going to sit on the throne?

Don't let me down.

There was a dark color in his eyes, which disappeared in a flash.

"Li Quan." After reading the memorial all night, Bai Zixu only felt his eyes sore, he threw away the imperial brush in his hand, and called out to the imperial study room, with a hint of fatigue on his brows.

Li Quan trotted in: "The servant is here."

"What time is it?" Bai Zixu frowned, and asked softly. He transferred 30 taels of military supplies from the state treasury, but it was still a drop in the bucket. Compared with the amount they requested, it was still [-] taels short. Now the treasury is empty. , how can he scrape together the money?

"Back to the emperor, the second watch has already been called." Li Quan bowed and said.

"Has Concubine Xue been settled?" He was busy dealing with state affairs these few days, he just took charge of the government, and there are many state affairs, but he did not go to Chaoyang Palace for some days.

"Back to the emperor, concubine Xue Gui probably didn't go to bed, maybe she was waiting for the emperor to pass by." Li Quan benefited from Liao Xue, but he helped her speak nice words without any trace.

Bai Zixu narrowed his eyes, and stood up from the dragon chair: "Put on the shelf, go to Chaoyang Hall."

Maybe he really should go see Cher.

The maid was leading the way with the palace lantern in her hand. A eunuch hurried to the Chaoyang Hall to announce the news that the emperor was coming. Liao Xue got up and dressed in a hurry. One step in the harem, now I think of her.

"Your Majesty, this servant will apply makeup for you." A maid carefully applied makeup to Liao Xue with a rouge box.

The woman is a confidant, maybe the man she loves is about to come, Liao Xue looks extremely happy.

"Quick, dress up this palace well."

"Yes!" All of a sudden, the Chaoyang Palace was brightly lit, eunuchs and maids filed in, made the bed, prepared supper, and waited for Bai Zixu to come.

Bai Zixu was wearing a black fluffy cloak, and Li Quan was holding a lantern to light up the bluestone road under his feet. The full moon was like a tray, and the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. His steps stopped, and for some reason, he thought of Mo Xiaoran's face.

"Is the queen safe these few days?" He asked unexpectedly.

Li Quan's heart skipped a beat, wondering why the emperor suddenly asked about the queen?He didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly said: "I heard that the queen has been staying in Fengqi Palace for the past few days, and has never left for half a step. She still does weird exercises in the palace every day, other than that, there is nothing unusual about it."

"Haven't you ever left?" Is she so honest?
Bai Zixu didn't believe it!That woman dared to confront her openly, how could she be an ordinary daughter?
"Come on, take a detour to Fengqi Palace." He changed his mind temporarily, and suddenly wanted to see her.

Li Quan trembled all over, and persuaded: "But the eunuch has already gone to the Chaoyang Palace to announce the decree, and the imperial concubine is probably waiting for Your Majesty in the palace now."

After Bai Zixu thought about it, he gave up the idea of ​​going to Fengqi Palace: "In that case, let's go to Chaoyang Palace. I haven't seen Xue'er for a few days."

Hearing this, Li Quan breathed a sigh of relief, not knowing why the emperor suddenly asked about the queen, and even almost went to Fengqi Palace.

If this noble concubine falls out of favor, his reward will be much less.

Bai Zixu came to Chaoyang Palace, Liao Xue waited on him for supper, the two of them drank a few glasses of thin wine, the atmosphere was warm, looking at Liao Xue who had regained his beautiful appearance, the suppressed dark fire in Bai Zixu's heart suddenly rose , the lower abdomen was ready to move, he hugged Liao Xue's shoulders, and pushed her down on the bed, the pink curtain poured down, and spent the spring evening in the hibiscus tent.
