The Evil Mistress's Killing Crazy Daily
Chapter 23 What Can People Want from Me?
"Wait!"
Xiao Chongjing stepped forward quickly and hugged Yin Xiaorou in his arms.
He looked helplessly at Yin Xiaorou's watery eyes and sighed softly, "Are you really willing to leave? You...you're not going to look for your father anymore?"
"I can't find it anymore."
Yin Xiaorou shook her head with tears in her eyes.
In the moonlight, she looked like white pear blossoms wet by the rain, delicate, clean and pitiful.
She said pitifully, "Anyway, I'm like this now. Everyone dislikes me, even you... Dad must dislike me too..."
"Who said I dislike you?"
Xiao Chongjing scratched her nose through the veil and said with pity, "I'm just too busy recently. What are you thinking about?"
"Really?" Yin Xiaorou looked up at Xiao Chongjing in surprise.
Suddenly, a gust of night wind blew, and the veil fell off. At the corner of her eye where the scar should have been, a plum blossom red hairpin was vivid and beautiful, which made people's hearts moved.
Xiao Chongjing was immediately stunned.
He stared at Yin Xiaorou's pretty face for a long time, and just as the two of them were getting closer and closer...suddenly, Xiao Qinyu's figure appeared in his mind.
It was as if a basin of cold water was poured from the top of his head to his heels, and Xiao Chongjing quickly let go of Yin Xiaorou.
In the puzzled look of Yin Xiaorou, he coughed twice awkwardly before saying, "It's so late, you, you should go back first. I still have business to attend to."
After saying that, without waiting for Yin Xiaorou's reaction, he hurried into the study.
He pondered in his study room all night and felt that he couldn't go on like this. So the next day, he took Yin Wenyu's calligraphy and went directly to the palace.
"My dear, what is the purpose of your request today?"
In the imperial study, Jun Yi Guang was reviewing memorials while asking Xiao Chongjing about his purpose.
"minister……"
Xiao Chongjing knelt in the middle of the imperial study. The impulse that had been brewing in his heart all night quickly faded away, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
After thinking for a long time, he finally managed to say, "Your Majesty, I see that you are not in a good mood today, so I came to pay my respects."
"My dear minister, you are so thoughtful." Jun Yiguang raised his hand to signal Xiao Chongjing to stand up, then smiled and comforted him, "I just caught a cold, it's nothing serious, my dear minister, don't worry too much."
"Yes, I'm glad your Majesty is alright."
Xiao Chongjing hurriedly said respectfully.
He stood in the middle of the imperial study, feeling as if he had a thorn in his side. He made a few small comments to show his concern, and finally knelt down naturally to take his leave.
Just as he was backing away from the imperial study, an idea suddenly occurred to him, and Yin Wenyu's calligraphy slipped out of his sleeve as if unintentionally.
Then he pretended not to see it and quickly turned and left.
"General Xiao?" Eunuch Fu picked up the calligraphy from the ground and hurriedly tried to call Xiao Chongjing.
"Stop shouting." Jun Yiguang put down the red brush and ordered calmly, "Bring it here."
"Yes."
Eunuch Fu hurriedly spread out the calligraphy respectfully and placed it in front of Jun Yi Guang.
Jun Yiguang lowered his eyes and looked at it, his heart moved. What was written on the paper was just a simple and immature poem. There were no fancy words, and the content was not elegant, but it reminded him of the plain days when he lived in the northwest.
Although it was very hard at the time, looking back now, it feels different...
He stretched out his hand and touched the immature brushstrokes on the paper. Suddenly, he felt a strong curiosity. What did those two children look like now?
"Your Majesty, Madam Huiguo requests to see you."
Just when Jun Yi Guang was immersed in his fantasy, Eunuch Fu reminded him.
"Ah."
Jun Yi Guang came back to his senses and waited until Eunuch Fu put away the calligraphy before nodding and letting Madam Huiguo come in.
"I pay my respects to Your Majesty."
As soon as Mrs. Huiguo came in, she bowed and greeted with a smile on her face.
"Old lady, please stand up quickly." Jun Yiguang smiled and just as he spoke, Eunuch Fu immediately stepped forward to help Madam Huiguo up. By the way, he arranged a chair for her to sit down according to the old rules.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Mrs. Huiguo smiled and thanked her first before sitting down.
As soon as she sat down, she began to care about Jun Yiguang's health. "I heard from the Queen that His Majesty hasn't been sleeping well lately. What does the imperial physician say?"
"I just caught a cold." Jun Yiguang smiled. "But the old lady, I heard that you were seriously ill recently, what happened?"
"I..." When she mentioned this, Madam Huiguo felt very aggrieved. Her eyes turned red, and she immediately knelt down from the chair and said, "Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me."
"Please get up, old lady."
When Jun Yi Guang saw his wet nurse kneeling down again, he quickly waved to Eunuch Fu.
"Yes, old lady, please stand up first." Eunuch Fu hurriedly stepped forward to help Madam Huiguo sit up, his tone was seven parts comforting and three parts blaming, "Old lady, what are you doing? If you have anything to say, please speak up. His Majesty is here. How can he not help you if you have any grievances?"
"Eunuch Fu is right."
After getting the emperor's guarantee, Lady Huiguo decided to stop while she was ahead.
She wiped her tears and began to tell her grievances, "I took Brother Sheng with me to the Autumn Banquet a few days ago. I wanted him to see the world, but I didn't expect...he was pushed into the water and nearly died!"
"what?"
Jun Yiguang's expression changed. "Who is so cruel to openly push a child into the water during the autumn viewing banquet?"
"Your Majesty, this is not the worst!" Madam Huiguo wiped her tears again and said angrily, "I saw it with my own eyes! After that girl pushed Sheng'er into the water, she pretended to be a good person and went to save Sheng'er! Fortunately, many people saw it at the time, otherwise, wouldn't I have to regard my enemy as my benefactor?"
"She pushed Sheng'er first, and then went to save him?" Eunuch Fu, who had spent his entire life in the palace, immediately sensed something was wrong. He carefully reminded, "Could that person have other plans?"
"Who knows?" Madam Huiguo shook her head in confusion. "I'm just an old woman with no power or influence. I just like to admire flowers and drink tea all day long. What can people want from me?"
"Madam, you can't underestimate yourself."
Eunuch Fu smiled and looked at his master.
Jun Yi Guang also smiled and shook his head, but his mind was very clear. He understood that the man might be coming for him.
So he asked, "Have you interrogated that person? What did she say?"
"Don't mention it." When the interrogation was mentioned, Madam Huiguo felt even more aggrieved, and there was an inexplicable sense of frustration in her grievance. "I had just started the interrogation when General Xiao came to my house and insisted that the girl was his savior, and took her away directly!"
"Xiao Chongjing?" Jun Yiguang's eyes darkened, and he had a bad feeling in his heart. He quickly looked at his wet nurse and asked, "What's the girl's name?"
"Call... Yin Xiaorou!"
