Chapter 165 Happy Event
Although Si Linglong was no longer in danger, in order to avoid suspicion from others, Helian Yue still asked Doctor Li Yu to prescribe a prescription for treating angina pectoris, and kept her in the imperial tent in the name of recuperation, not allowing her to go out.
Although Si Linglong wanted to refuse, she thought about going through the same pain again in three days, so she decided to conserve her energy to avoid being unable to hold on.
Helian Yue simply held her in his arms and slept that night.
Looking at the peaceful sleeping face of the person in his arms, Helian Yue couldn't tell what kind of feelings he had for the woman in front of him.
She thought that his "love" for her was just deliberate.
In the past, Helian Yue doted on her and protected her, but he never loved her.
After all, even he himself doesn't know, so what is the meaning of loving someone.
But tonight, something seems to have changed quietly.
…
The next morning, Helian Yue walked out of the imperial tent, his handsome face was cold and frosty.
"Pass on my order to move camp and return to the capital in three days."
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Shuhong and Qinglu who were waiting outside the tent, and said solemnly, "Take good care of your master. I don't want any news to reach her ears in the next three days."
Shuhong trembled slightly in her heart, but bowed her head in a respectful manner, and responded in unison with Qinglu, "As you wish."
On the other side, Bai Qianqian was having her makeup done by a palace maid with a sullen face.
Ever since she lost so much hair, she looked unhappy every time she combed her hair, and even the bronze mirror was turned to the other side.
Seeing this, Zi Yue at the side coaxed her softly.
"My queen, although Miss Shen failed in her dance performance last night and was not able to enter the palace, at least the marriage with the Marquis of Wu'an is completely aborted."
Zi Yue followed him into the palace from the mansion, so she was naturally clear about what happened between her and the Prince of Li.
Bai Qianqian's expression eased slightly after hearing this, but it wasn't much better.
"It's a pity that I couldn't help Si Linglong."
Although Shen Rongrong was a daughter of a general, she was also somewhat coquettish. Originally, he thought that if Shen Rongrong entered the palace, she would be able to share some of Si Linglong's favor.
But I never thought that person was so useless.
I can't even dance as well as others.
Although Shen Rongrong didn't like Si Linglong, she could see that Si Linglong was indeed a better dancer than Shen Rongrong.
He really is worthy of being carefully cultivated by the Si family to have a bright future, haha.
As they were talking, someone suddenly came in from outside. It was another trusted palace maid of Shen Rongrong, Zi Xi.
Zi Xi walked in with a look of joy on her face.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor suddenly sent someone to pass on his order."
Bai Qianqian listened to Zi Xi finish speaking the content of the decree, and a smile suddenly broke out on her originally unsightly face.
"Did you hear correctly? Did the emperor really issue an order?"
"I heard it clearly. People are talking outside."
Bai Qianqian's mood improved visibly in an instant, and she even ignored her disgust for her hair, and even asked someone to turn the bronze mirror over.
"Dress up for me, I have to go visit Concubine Lang Gui in person."
I wonder what kind of expression Si Linglong had when he heard this decree?
Zi Xi heard this and replied carefully, "But your majesty, Concubine Lang Gui is currently recuperating in the emperor's tent. The emperor said that no one is allowed to disturb her."
Bai Qianqian raised her eyebrows.
"I think he's sick from anger. Never mind. We'll meet again someday. There's no need to rush now."
"Yes."
There was a turmoil outside, but Si Linglong knew nothing about it and just lay on the bed.
After a night's rest, her terrifying face from last night had regained its rosy complexion. Qinglu came in and helped her wash and eat carefully.
Si Linglong was bored and just asked, "What are you doing outside today? Where is the emperor?"
Qinglu was packing up her things. When she heard this, her hands trembled. She turned away subconsciously and said softly, "I don't know either. It should be the same as before, horse racing and ball hitting..."
"Hmm?" Si Linglong looked at Qinglu and felt that the maid's expression looked a little strange today.
