Chapter 10 The Lost Child

The winter night was extremely cold, and the north wind howled, blowing a fine snow.

As night falls, the stars are shining brightly in the sky, and the world is dark and silent.

Holding a lantern, Cheng Muqing walked in the palace with Jinxi.Since Qiguo came back, she was not used to having too many people around her, so even though she was Princess Qi, Jinxi was the only maid around.

While walking, a figure flashed not far away.When the man saw Cheng Muqing, he quickly ran towards her.

"Princess Wangfei!" The man suddenly ran to her side at a brisk pace, "Is it Madam Wangfei?"

"Cheng Muqing was taken aback at first, and then said, "It's me. "

"Princess Wangfei, my child is lost." The man's face was haggard and haggard, and his eyes, which were not bright at all, were even bloodshot.

Lost a child?

child?

Could it be that the bearded man I saw during the day was really a human trafficker?Cheng Muqing was startled, "But a boy?"

"No..." The man shook his head, "It's a girl, and she just passed her birthday this year."

"Then how do you want me to help you?" Cheng Muqing said bluntly, "You came to me because the housekeeper wouldn't let you find the child?"

"No..." the man shook his head, "My child is a family child and has been working in the house. The day I lost it, the housekeeper even helped me find it. It's just... I've been looking for it for two days, but I haven't found it. I think, She may have gone out to play, so she wants to beg the princess, let me go out and find her!"

"Well, I'll tell the butler." Cheng Muqing said softly.

"Thank you, Concubine Wang." The man clenched his fists tightly and knelt down on the ground.

"This is you?" Cheng Muqing involuntarily stepped back.

"I would like to advance... some money with the princess..."

"It's easy to say." Cheng Muqing supported him, "Get up, the man has gold under his knees, you don't have to."

"Thank you, Princess..." The man looked very decadent, with tears in his eyes.

"Go and find it. Later, I will ask Jinxi to send some guards to help you find it." Cheng Muqing said, looking at Jinxi.

"Don't worry! I'll find Guard Cui directly for you!" Jin Xi said, patting her chest.

"Thank you, Princess Wang!" The man bent his body, and his head hit the ground with a "bang bang".

Looking at the humble and old body below him, Cheng Muqing couldn't help saying, "Get up, maybe your child is just playing for a while, and will come back later."

But this rhetoric obviously did not comfort the man, the man still lowered his head, his shoulders trembling slightly.

Came to her just for this one request?Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a long time, Cheng Muqing raised his foot to leave.

"Princess Empress!"

"Huh? Is there anything else I can do to help you?"

He seemed to be entangled, and it took him a long time to say, "Princess Wangfei...Actually..."

"Princess Empress!"

Cheng Muqing raised his eyes, and his attention was attracted by A Feng who was not far away.

"Prince Concubine." A Feng trotted up to her, bowed and saluted, panting heavily, "My lord is very ill and still refuses to take medicine..."

"Don't drink?" Cheng Muqing's heart was on fire.

Lin Heng's health is not good, since he suffered from the cold, he has been bedridden.The medicines he drank were all kinds of medicines, and they were weaker than Xizi.

Do not drink medicine, wait for the disease to get worse, damage the body?
"Go." Cheng Muqing raised her foot and was about to leave, but stopped after taking two steps. She looked down at the man, "By the way, did you have anything to say just now?"

"I..." The man's body froze, "No, I'm going to send off Princess Qi." He said, step by step, slowly retreating.

"Hmm..." I always feel that he has something to say?Cheng Muqing watched the man's back gradually walk away, and murmured in his heart.But thinking about her other little life not taking medicine at the moment, she didn't have the heart to speculate on this servant's thoughts.She took big steps and hurried towards Jingyuan.

……

Jingyuan's servants saw Cheng Muqing approaching aggressively from afar, and immediately lowered her head in fear, not daring to look at her.

Cheng Muqing's strides were very large, and he jumped onto the corridor in a few steps.

Her shoes thumped on the wooden porch.

"Why don't you take medicine!" Cheng Muqing almost knew the way, pushed open the door, and strode around to the back room.

She wanted to say something more, but saw that the other party was blushing, and there was a layer of mist in the beautiful Danfeng's eyes.

"You..." Almost didn't need to call the imperial physician, Cheng Muqing could tell that he was in a bad state.She walked over and put her hand on his forehead.

It's a little hot...

"Tonight, bring some cold water." Cheng Muqing turned his head and ordered.

Jinxi managed to follow her into the house, and was sent away again when she was running out of breath.She helped her forehead helplessly, but she felt a little happy that the relationship between the two was so good.

Cheng Muqing picked up the soup and medicine on the table, supported Lin Heng, and fed the medicine.

"Cough cough cough..." Lin Heng coughed violently.

Maybe it was because she fed her too roughly, Lin Heng choked for a long time.

Cheng Muqing calmed him down, "One more thing..."

"I won't drink anymore..." Lin Heng pursed his lips.

"No, I have to drink." Cheng Muqing once again implemented the method of bursting chestnuts.

Even though Lin Heng was absolutely unwilling, he was too weak to withstand Cheng Muqing's tough tactics.

After feeding the medicine, Cheng Muqing took the handkerchief Jin Xi handed over and wiped Lin Heng's face.

A cold veil brushed over his eyebrows and the bridge of his nose little by little.Lin Heng felt the coolness on his face, which was very comfortable, and he was dizzy and dizzy, so he didn't dodge any more.

"Jinxi, Afeng, you go out first." Cheng Muqing sent the two of them away.

Inside the house, the candle lights flickered and there was no sound.

Seeing that there was no one around, Cheng Muqing just said, "I know why you called me a liar. But it's not that I didn't come in the morning, it's that I entered the palace. You are a man, you can't hate me for such a trivial matter, right?"

"Cough cough cough..."

The only response to her was a series of coughing sounds.

"You have to know that there will always be times when accidents disrupt the plan." Cheng Muqing patiently reasoned with him, "Also, between us... Anyway, we are still husband and wife. If you have any dissatisfaction, please contact him directly. It's fine if I say it, don't hold it in your heart all the time. If I forget anything, you can also tell me, don't let me keep guessing. "

"Then..." Lin Heng said, he licked his split lips, "Do you still remember the first time we met?"

"The fire?" Cheng Muqing said, "Of course I remember, I saved you."

"No...it will be earlier. Cough cough..." Lin Heng coughed, and looked at her seriously, "It was a snowy day, you saved me...and then gave me chicken legs... Keke..."

"Uh..." Why doesn't she have any impression of this?Cheng Muqing smiled awkwardly, "Really?"

Lin Heng closed his eyes and pursed his lips tightly.

"In... Qihuang Palace?" Cheng Muqing hesitated, seeing that he ignored him, he couldn't help scratching his head, "My lord, did you remember wrongly?"

The other party turned over and expressed with actions: I don't want to talk to you.

This person started again... Cheng Muqing murmured in his heart.

But the first time she met him was indeed in that fire...

At that time, in order to save him, she had scalded scars on her body.

 Cheng Muqing: Not only is she narrow-minded, but also disobedient.

  Lin Heng: ...
