Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

Chapter 169: Slave, what can I do for you?

They walked too fast and I almost trot to keep up. He stopped and said to me, "You don't have to follow."

"Ah?" I froze and was about to ask, he had said, "Go back!"

The two words were simple and neat, and I could not talk anymore. He had already gone far with Yang Yunhui. I stood silently at the gate, watching the back of them as they went away, and my heart was a little tight.

The next time, I stayed alone in his house, watching the smoke rising from the incense burner, and then slowly dissipated in the air, but there is no such leisure in the whole Yangzhou. Insufficient grain storage is enough to cause chaos. Even if I do n’t see it with my own eyes, I can vaguely feel that the panic caused by that kind of food is like a dark cloud outside, densely spreading over Yangzhou Cheng, and it's too hard to breathe. .

It was not until the lights came on that Pei Yuanzhang returned.

His face was even more ugly than when he left. He entered the room and sat next to the table. The flickering candlelight shone on his face. There was no expression or temperature, but the evil spirit on his body was even more deterrent. .

I felt something awkward, and stepped forward cautiously, "His Royal Highness."

He was silent for a long time, then slowly looked back at me, but the first sentence he spoke made me startled-"Did you eat?"

"... Ah?" I looked at him stupidly. I couldn't think of it. He would ask me this in the first sentence, and shook his head subconsciously: "Not yet."

"Why not eat?"

"..."

"There is no shortage of you."

"..."

I stood there pondering for a long time, and I felt like he was joking, but this is really not like him. Pei Yuanzhang can kill and win, or he can be cold and cold, but how could he be joking with me?

But after thinking about it, I still understood that he was too tense, listening to the people in the state government said that Yangzhou City was very messy this time, and it was not just for the disaster victims to eat, the people looted food So simple, those grain merchants are all famous snakes here. Even Hong Wenquan colluded with them and got only a few odds. This group of people has great influence in Yangzhou. They want to hoard food to make unlucky money. nothing.

But Pei Yuanzhang faced more than just this. What is happening in the capital city? There is no news yet. Even if he stays, his heart will fly back to the imperial city long, and there is a day's delay. , May affect his future inestimable.

Now he may be harder than ever.

Just thinking about it this way, I even had a slight heartache. Although I knew that this man shouldn't have such emotions, the slight pain in the chest could not lie to anyone.

After a long silence, I slowly walked in front of him: "His Royal Highness."

...

"Slave, what can I do for you?"

...

Although I can't solve your problems, for now, even if I can do something for you, that's good.

He also looked at me, even though those black eyes were so close to the candlelight, there was no light at all, like an endless deep cold lake.

Suddenly, he picked me up without warning.

"Ah!" I whispered in astonishment, and before responding, he had carried me to the bed, the candlelight was blown away by a startled wind, and I looked at him in the dim light Normal faces are hidden in the shadows, only those eyes are astonishingly bright.

As soon as he waved his sleeve, the candle extinguished completely, and in the darkness, he leaned down and pressed down.
