Xiao Chenyan was taken away by Yan Lan for training and has not returned yet.
The reason Qing Wu was able to rush here so quickly was because she received a tip-off from the wandering ghosts in the suburbs of Beijing.
In fact, the appearance of Asuna's group of Hu envoys was too strange. Qing Wu expected that these counterfeiters were going to come to her door, but she did not expect that the other party was so hungry and impatient.
I actually waited halfway.
After entering the palace, Shadow Cat showed his face and then disappeared into the study. The Black Armor Guards who had returned from Nanling were all in the courtyard eating and drinking meat.
Qing Wu wasn't just talking empty talk when she said she would host a banquet to entertain them.
Qing Wu carried a pot of wine and walked around the yard, but couldn't find Baisui. She crushed the wine with her fingers, made a "tsk" sound, and walked towards the back garden.
When they met Hong Rui and Lu Qiao on the way, Qing Wu asked, "Are you looking for that crybaby?"
The two girls were stunned for a moment, then they realized that he was a hundred years old, and they all smiled bitterly.
Hong Rui: "I heard from the brothers who came from Nanling that Xiao Baisui cried all the way here. He was hurt before, so he must be very sad now."
Lu Qiao: "That idiot, he took the fake as real! He deserves to cry!"
Qing Wu looked at her with a half-smile: "Didn't you cry before?"
"Princess~" Lu Qiao stamped her feet in embarrassment: "You are making fun of me."
Qing Wu laughed loudly, "Okay, you guys go have some drinks, I'll take care of that kid."
The two girls agreed. Before leaving, Hong Rui stuffed a bag of candies into Qing Wu's pocket:
"This is Xiao Baisui's favorite dish. The young lady invited him to eat it before, and he liked it. However, he has always been short of money, so he usually can't afford to buy it. Princess, you can coax him."
Qing Wu looked at the bag of crispy candies, wondering what was going on, and asked, "He is a commander after all, how could he be short of money? It can't be that Xiao Chenyan withheld your monthly salary, right?"
Hong Rui smiled helplessly and said, "Your Highness has always been very generous to me. It was Xiao Baisui who always missed the young lady, and he used all his salary to buy her as an offering."
Lu Qiao also nodded: "Every year he asks someone to write the sacrificial text, and he also personally copies the scriptures, saying that the best paper and ink must be used to burn it for the young lady. But that paper and ink... are so expensive!"
Qing Wu listened, lowered her eyes, and said softly, "Oh."
She was holding the candied cake and walking all the way to the back garden, still thinking of what she had said to Luqiao.
The judge's pen sobbed, "That slug is really... I'm crying to death... wuwuwu..."
"I will never laugh at him for crying so loudly again..."
"Wuwuwu... Ah Wu, please give this little crybaby a hug. The child is so miserable and so adorable. I won't compete with him for favor. He deserves your tolerance towards him. Wuwuwu..."
Qing Wu: "Shut up." As soon as she said this, her mind became quiet.
She walked silently to the back garden and jumped onto the rockery without making any sound or leaking any breath.
Qing Wu squatted on the rockery and looked down. There was a person curled up in the gap between two huge rockery stones.
Baisui sat with his knees hugged, biting his sleeve, crying heartbrokenly, but he didn't dare to cry out loud for fear of attracting others to laugh at him.
Qing Wu held her chin up to admire him, and when she saw that he was starting to hiccup from crying, she suddenly asked, "Would you like some hot water?"
"Wow!" Baisui was so scared that he jumped up on the spot like a cat with its fur exploded.
He looked up at Qingwu, his face flushed instantly, he wiped his face hurriedly, his mouth a mess: "You you you princess you you...you..."
Qing Wu sighed: "You're not hiccuping anymore, why are you stuttering again?"
She jumped down and stuffed the oil paper package containing the candied food into his arms.
"What is this?"
"Xiaohong is for you."
Baisui's face was flushed with panic. He tried to hide it by opening the oil paper package. When he saw the candied cakes inside, his mouth drooped and his eyes were filled with cat urine. He could hardly hold it back anymore.
Qing Wu was never good at comforting people, so seeing him crying, she was puzzled: "Is a fake worth your sadness?"
Baisui just picked up the candy and was about to put it in his mouth, then he looked up blankly, his eyelashes still stained with tears: "Fake, fake?"
Qing Wu raised her eyebrows and thought to herself, no way.
"As for that woman with a mouth full of shit, you don't really think she is Yun Qingwu, do you?"
"No, isn't it?"
Qing Wu: “…”
This child's eyes are really useless.
"How does she look like Yun Qingwu?"
Baisui subconsciously said, "She looks a lot like General Yun Zheng!"
"She didn't look like her brother when she was a child."
"Girls change a lot when they grow up. If she didn't look like her brother when she was young, she must not look like him when she grows up... No, Princess, how do you know what the young lady looked like when she was young?"
Qing Wu twitched her lips and said, "Don't worry about how I know. Putting aside her appearance, how can she be like Yun Qing Wu, judging from her foul mouth and face? Don't you have any judgment for yourself?"
Baisui blushed and subconsciously spoke up for the young lady in his mind.
After meeting Qing Wu's eyes that were not malicious but simply confused, he lowered his head and muttered:
"It's not like I didn't have any doubts, but...but the prince wouldn't lie to me. I asked him, and he said that was the young lady..."
Qing Wu raised her eyebrows: "Did Xiao Chenyan tell you?"
"That's what the shadow stand-in said, but isn't what it conveyed the prince's intention?"
Qing Wu understood.
She said that no matter how much of a brainless fanboy Baisui was, he couldn't be so brainless.
"Fake!" She threw her head at Baisui.
Baisui gasped and rubbed his forehead, but he was happy: "Is she really fake?"
"uh-huh!"
Baisui's expression immediately turned ferocious: "Bah! I told you that a young lady shouldn't be like that! That woman has a foul mouth! She's so foul and domineering, it pissed me off, and I even bowed my head to her right before her!"
"Ahhh! No, the more I think about it, the angrier I get!"
Baisui was so angry at this moment that he wanted to get up in the middle of the night and slap himself.
But he didn't stay angry for long, and his eyes became red again.
"She's a fake, does that mean the young lady is really dead..."
He looked at Qing Wu and said, "Princess, have you really never met a young lady before?"
Qing Wu: “…”
She stared at the crying baby for a long while, then said, "I met him."
Baisui's breath was choked: "She, she, she..."
Qing Wu had a blank expression on her face, with helplessness hidden in her eyes: "You cry so loudly every year on her death anniversary, how could she not know? The ghosts in the underworld are afraid of you crying."
"She said if you cry again, she will come over and beat you up."
"I will definitely not cry anymore!" Baisui said quickly, and then his tears burst out uncontrollably again.
Qing Wu raised her hand and knocked him hard on the head.
"Ah! Princess, why did you hit me again!"
Qing Wu looked at him with a smile: "I just said it now. If you cry again, I will beat your dog head off."
"But you just said clearly that it was..."
Bai Sui's voice suddenly stopped. He stared at her blankly, his lips trembling...
