The Only You in the World

019 Childhood

After a while, a few maids set up steaming meals in the room, but Bai Shaoqing had no appetite and ate some at will. He always felt confused and difficult to rest.

I sat in the courtyard bored for a while, and I wanted to see Yue Chongjin, but I didn't know what to say when I saw him. At that time, when he first met Xiangshan, he was a silent young emperor. He didn't talk much, and he always looked a little wandering, but his eyes. But she remembers it clearly.

Introversion and calmness, often looking at a place to be distracted, but once the eyes turn around, it will become particularly sharp. At that time, she and Xuan Shenzi designed at the foot of the mountain to make it difficult for the monarchs of the four countries. The king of Qin was conceited, the king of Chu, and the prince of Ji were weak, while Yue Chongjin was kind.

She always remembered the smile that swung slightly at the corners of his mouth. At that time, she felt that he was secretly laughing at Xuan Shenzi's temptation. Now when she thinks of it, she feels that he is laughing at himself.

His body is condensed with essential tolerance and the heart of the emperor. He is laughing at himself and can't get rid of the shackles. And now, has he paid a greater price for this shackle? Perhaps because of his kindness, he should not have the kindness of being an emperor.

According to what Chu Su said, it seemed that he left the palace in light clothes. At the junction of Yuechu, he was ambushed and his followers died, and he lost his memory and was exiled here. There must be a conspiracy. Maybe someone in Yueguo has replaced him now.

Bai Shaoqing thought of this and stood up.

She thought of a person who had a deep influence on her. He once said that Yue Chongjin was his nephew. When he first met him, he had a dark guard, issued instructions at any time, and acted quickly. From the perspective of what he did to himself, he was planning extremely long-term and meticulously. The situation of Yue Chongjin may also be his plan. One?

She walked around the room and recalled what happened one by one. Although she couldn't find any doubt to connect everything, the inexplicable heavy feeling in her heart was getting heavier and heavier.

After painging back and forth in the room for a long time, suddenly she heard very light footsteps in the courtyard, as if someone was approaching quietly. She quickly dodged to the long window and looked through the window, but saw a girl in blue looking around the middle of the courtyard. She was dressed in capt and elegant, and her panicked eyes showed her anxiety in her heart. Ann. It was Qi Ruchun who was just turned away.

She came to the courtyard gently, but she didn't dare to get too close, so she had to stretch her neck and whisper to the room: "Qingqing, are you here?"

Bai Shaoqing looked at her in a dain. He didn't dare to open his mouth, let alone move, but he heard her say, "Are you there? Answer me, I'm Ruchun. Have you forgotten me?" There was a crying sound in his voice. The spring breeze in the courtyard moved. She felt cold. She stretched out her hand to hold her body and took a few steps forward. She looked at the big house in front of her hesitantly: "Qingqing, Qing..." At this point, she suddenly coughed. At first, she just coughed a few times that she couldn't hide. Later, she coughed harder and worse. Her little face turned red, and she couldn't stand. She sat down and covered it with one hand. He raised his neck, frowned and coughed non-stop.

At this point, Bai Shaoqing could no longer sit idly by. She suddenly opened the door and rushed out, stroked her on her back, and pulled her into the room. Qi Ruchun's lips trembled at her. Tears flowed down, but she couldn't speak, just coughing violently. Bai Shaoqing helped her to the bed and sat down, pulled the quilt to cover her lap, went back to the table and poured a cup of tea and slowly poured it in for her. Then she slowly recovered, but a moment ago, her face was purple because of coughing and panting, and the color was white and frightening.

She gasped, stared at Bai Shaoqing with tears for a moment, tremblingly reached out and touched her face, gently scratched her cheek, and her fingertips fell to her chin. She lost her voice in pain again, struggled to leave the bedside, and knelt down along the edge of the bed: "Qingqing... Sister, I'm sorry... ...You are suffering..."

Bai Shaoqing had tears in his eyes and stretched out his hand to help her up. Unexpectedly, she broke free, moved back a little, pulled her robe and cried bitterly: "Over the years... I've been thinking about you all the time... But I didn't expect that you were in front of me, but... I couldn't recognize you again... Qingqing... I look forward to it day and night. I thought I could see you again, thinking that we could be like before... I could hear you calling my sister... but I didn't expect... I didn't expect..." After saying that, I cried loudly and began to cough again.

Bai Shaoqing looked at her small face changing color in an instant, and it became more and more red. Her eyes began to be full of blood. Blue veins could be seen on her forehead, and the sound of breathing was even more anxious. Bai Shaoqing panicked and reached out to hold her wrist. He only felt that she was pulsating very fast. Thinking of her illness, her brain suddenly flashed and stretched out his hand to her. He touched the skirt, and sure enough, he soon touched a porcelain bottle, pulled out the cork, and a smell of medicine came to his face. At the same time, Qi Ruchun's face had a faint trend from purple to black. At this time, he had no time to hesitate. He had to pour out two pills of medicine, stuffed it into her mouth, sent tea several times, and finally poured it down.

She held Qi Ruchun tightly in her arms and stared at her face slowly changing. Fortunately, there was nothing wrong with the medicine. Her face slowly recovered again, and her lips were open, but she was so angry that she no longer had the strength to speak.

Bai Shaoqing hugged her. The two of them leaned against the bed and sat on the ground like this. After a long time, Qi Ruchun recovered and whispered, "When I was a child... we lived like this... Do you remember?" At that time, Bai Shaoqing was a bold prime minister. Compared with her boudoir daughter in the same situation, she always showed unique rebellion from time to time. It was Qi Ruchun who helped her and hid her. The two small figures held her in the corner, in the warehouse, in the study... to avoid the pursuit of her father.

The past is like a reappearance. Bai Shaoqing was sad and nodded gently. Qi Ruchun leaned on her, tears flashed in her eyes and choked, "I... I still want to protect you like before, Qingqing, my sister has promised to protect you forever... Over the years, you must have suffered a lot, sister... I'm sorry... "

As she spoke, she began to tremble again. Bai Shaoqing hurriedly hugged her thin body more tightly, pulled the quilt to cover her, and whispered, "How long have you been sick?"

Qi Ruchun's body trembled and hesitated for a long time before saying, "It's been eight years."

Bai Shaoqing was stunned when he heard the words. Qi Ruchun grabbed her arm tightly and cried, "I went that day... Qingqing, I went!" Bai Shaoqing's heart was in a sharp pain in his heart, and his throat was so painful that he couldn't speak. Qi Ruchun's voice was as intermittent as the wind: "I heard that your father wanted to... and heard that... You weren't... that day... I secretly ran to see him off... Unexpectedly... I didn't expect to see that scene... Qingqing, my poor sister... sister, right? You... I'm sorry, aunt... and Xiaokang... Xiaokang... I heard that his name is Dad... Xiaokang..."
