After the violent wolf lord was reborn, he became sickly!
Chapter 236 Worry
A long time had passed since that day, but Xiao Linglang's heart was still beating like a drum.
After the snow stopped in Suizhou, another snowstorm followed, leaving a thick layer of snow.
Xiao Linglang stayed in the yard wrapped in a fox fur coat. Although she had taken adequate precautions when she went out that day, she still caught a cold.
Tuoba Jin didn't say anything, but turned around and restrained her feet.
Xiao Linglang felt guilty and a little guilty, and could only sigh that her body was now more fragile than paper. So she stayed in the backyard obediently these days, taking medicine for several days, and did not dare to complain.
"What are you looking at?"
The maid Tao Xin brought the warmed lotus seed soup from the kitchen.
Xiao Linglang took it and took a sip. The smooth soup slid from the tip of her tongue into her throat, taking away all the astringency left by the medicine she had just taken.
She put down the spoon and pointed at the snow in the yard that might disappear at any time. "What has the Wolf Lord been doing recently?"
She wanted to ask how Tuoba Jin dealt with the people left in the city.
Tao Xin followed Xiao Linglang's gaze and saw a few sparrows perched on the brown branches of the tree. Joy appeared in the little girl's eyes.
"The queen is looking at the sparrow!"
After she exclaimed, she did not forget to reply to Xiao Linglang.
"Lord Wolf is discussing matters with the generals. Your Majesty, don't worry. Lord Huizhao is in charge of the affairs in the city. I heard that Huizhao wants to send those civilians back home. If the soldiers who surrendered are willing, they will be kept by General Luntu."
Xiao Linglang breathed a sigh of relief. With Lord Hui Zhao around, they should be able to live a better life.
"This snow is heavier than in previous years."
Tao Xin was a little dumber than the average person. She was brought back by Xiao Linglang when she saw her being bullied during a patrol with Tuoba Jin. She was four years younger than her, a clean and pretty girl.
Tao Xin blinked, looked at the snow on the ground, took two mouthfuls of the lotus seed soup that Xiao Linglang gave her, and nodded vigorously.
"The mother-in-law said to Tao Xin, 'The snow is heavy, the snow is heavy, the house is empty.' The queen is having dinner."
Tao Xin was worried that Xiao Linglang's soup, which she had only touched a spoonful of, would get cold, and her expression twisted.
"The house is empty." Xiao Linglang repeated in a low voice, and chuckled helplessly. Tao Xin's home was not in Suizhou, but this sentence was very suitable.
The wealthy merchants and officials abandoned the city and fled. Nine out of ten households that remained were empty, and half of the people were lying in the streets.
"Put the soup here. I'll use it later."
"It will get cold, my queen." Tao Xin said softly.
"I've made note of it and will use it in time." With a gentle curve on her lips, Xiao Linglang raised her hand and asked Tao Xin to close the diamond-shaped window.
Another day, the sunlight was brighter, but still cool.
"My lady, I heard that there was an epidemic in the city."
Under Tao Xin's insistence, Xiao Linglang put on one warm piece of clothes after another and tied a thick cloak before going out.
"If the Wolf Lord is angry with the Queen, how will the Queen be punished?"
Tao Xin followed Xiao Linglang with a worried heart, as the queen's house arrest had not been lifted yet.
"No problem, he won't."
Xiao Linglang had a serious expression on her face. She was wearing too many clothes, which made her walk like a clumsy turtle.
"But the Queen...?" Tao Xin hesitated. The last time the Queen went out, she was confined by the Wolf Lord when she came back and was not allowed to step out of the bedroom.
Xiao Linglang turned around and patted the frightened maid.
But if she doesn't come out, she will really be under house arrest forever, and he won't take the initiative to release her.
And now there is an epidemic, she was very worried. No wonder he sounded so heavy when he came back that day.
I first went to the small kitchen to get some beef, and also prepared a plate of lotus cake to relieve the greasiness.
Arriving at the front yard, Xiao Linglang stopped the guard's report and first asked if there were any ministers discussing matters inside.
After the guard shook his head, Xiao Linglang's willow-shaped eyebrows moved slightly, and she walked forward lightly, pushed the door and entered.
The doors and windows were closed, and there were only a few candles in the house. Xiao Linglang felt heavy in his heart. He was in a bad mood, and the epidemic situation was very serious.
"My queen." Tao Xin held the food box against her chest, looking around, afraid that a big beast would jump out from the darkness and carry her away.
Why is this meeting place so scary? Aren’t those generals who are meeting here afraid?
There are also sheep heads and other skins...
She weakly followed Xiao Linglang's steps.
"Don't be afraid." Xiao Linglang's voice trembled a little.
Go around the screen.
When Xiao Linglang stood in front of Tuoba Jin in a coquettish manner, Tuoba Jin had just inserted the dart into the capital of Southern Liang.
"I have met the Wolf Lord."
The tearing sound of the sharp blade cutting through the air made Xiao Linglang's heart skip a beat. She was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look at the drawing hanging opposite Tuoba Jin.
"Wolf Lord... is he practicing dart skills?"
The general and the military advisor had both gone back, and she thought he was resting and thinking about the epidemic.
Tuoba Jin walked down the stage slowly, his sword-like eyebrows raised slightly, wondering why the little girl came out. He glanced around the beauty and found that she was well-behaved this time.
He stretched out his long arm and put his arm around the beautiful woman's shoulders. "Why do you look so nervous, Yue'er?"
Xiao Linglang curled her lips awkwardly, glanced at the blueprint, and then secretly glanced at the box of darts on his desk.
The meaning was self-evident. She always stayed away from him when he practiced martial arts.
Lest the sword have no eyes.
Tuoba Jin laughed loudly, kneaded Xiao Linglang's face, patted her buttocks and said, "Rabbit gall, Luntu's things, I just threw them away casually."
"Rabbits are so brave!" Xiao Linglang murmured in a muffled voice and moved his hand away with shame.
"I brought some lotus cakes and braised beef in soy sauce, which were just made in the kitchen. I want you to have a taste."
Tuoba Jin glanced at Tao Xin who came in later, his eyes swept over the food box, tilted his head, mistakenly thinking that Xiao Linglang had not eaten lunch yet, lowered his eyes to look at her, and his teasing tone suddenly turned cold, "Why are you eating lunch so late? If you want me to accompany you, just send someone to pass the message. You ran over here, aren't you cold?"
While saying words of reproach, he showed no sign of hiding the concern in his eyes and reached out to test the little girl's palm.
A big hand was stuffed into Xiao Linglang's palm, and after being rubbed, the expression on his face relaxed a lot.
She held his hand obediently and said softly, "I have had lunch."
"Oh, really? Then these are..."
Tuoba Jin's eyes moved up and down. As Tao Xin took out a large plate of beef from the food box, followed by some snacks to go with the wine, he looked at Xiao Linglang meaningfully.
Either she was lying or she was not strict with her subordinates, and he would discipline those who did not listen to her.
Xiao Linglang was also stunned when she saw Tao Xin taking out plates of food from the food box!
Didn't she just take a plate of braised beef and a plate of lotus cake? Where did these come from?
And... what about the lotus cake? Where did that wine pot come from?
Tao Xin lowered her head, not daring to accept Xiao Linglang's questioning look. She was also doing this for the queen's own good. The queen had broken the Wolf Lord's ban without permission. If the Wolf Lord got angry again and punished the queen, it would not be good.
"Lord Wolf, these were specially ordered by the Queen to be made in the kitchen."
Xiao Linglang met the man's playful gaze blankly and pursed her cherry pink lips.
She glanced at the peach heart that she thought was hers, and the little girl looked at her with worried eyes.
Xiao Linglang nodded to Tuoba Jin and said, "Lord Wolf is worried about the epidemic in the city. I am worried."
