boudoir

Chapter 376

Liuli sighed silently, and turned her head away.

Where did she not know that they didn't look down on the 100 taels?In fact, a hundred taels of silver can keep them from doing things for several years. How could they not be tempted when they get two or two months of money every month?It's just that the money has become insignificant in the face of the friendship accumulated with her through thick and thin all these days.

What they said is right, as long as Qi Yunhao wins, their future will definitely be bright and glorious, and they will definitely get more than the 100 taels, but they have to be ruthless to gamble, Liuli For a moment, I really realized the true meaning of winning people's hearts - when she was angry and heartbroken because of a Rui'er many years ago, Aunt Su told her mercilessly that she lost because she couldn't give what people around her wanted. When she is unable to give what they want, they naturally have no motivation to be loyal, so their loyalty is limited.

Now that she has mastered the art of manipulating people, she no longer needs to rely on means to force people around her to be loyal to her. From her, from the respect she gives Ruier and Yuegui, they can also see the shadow of their own future .Ruier Yuegui is a model of their loyalty and a source of strength that drives them to become more determined.

Therefore, even if she gave them the money out of sincerity and sincerity to arrange a way out for them, they are still willing to accompany her to the end.

Liuli felt distressed and relieved because of them, and handed the banknote to Yuegui: "Since you don't leave, then I thank you. But if you change your mind, you can take the money from Yuegui and leave."

Ling Lan and the others retreated silently, and no one answered her words.

Liuli tilted her head and said to Yuegui, "Go and help Xiaodulu pack up, bring more clothes, and the wet nurse will go with her." After Yuegui went down, she looked at Haitang again: "Li Xing is a soldier, he can't evacuate , Yue Gui will naturally follow him. How about you? Are you really not going?"

Haitang shook her head, "Grandma, why are you so confused? We are all your slaves. If the master is in trouble, the slave will go first? If there is such a person, I will definitely rush up and beat her up!"

Liuli looked at her fixedly, and suddenly smiled, "Aside from this, is there any other reason?"

Haitang was startled, and then suddenly blushed. "grandmother--"

Liuli smiled and said, "I saw the dress you sewed earlier, and it was worn by Ye Tong these two days."

Haitang's face turned red like blood.

Liuli lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment, then said: "Although Ye Tong is in the guards just like Li Xing, Li Xing is the general of the Qi family and was born as a slave. Both Yuegui and him can stay together forever. In the palace, Ye Tong is a member of the army. Although they are selected and cultivated by the general, they will retire at a certain age in the future. He has no other specialties, he cannot be an official, and he can only return to his hometown. Ye Tong's My hometown is in southern Yunnan, very far away, would you like to go?"

Haitang froze, her face turned pale again.She really didn't think about Ye Tong's future whereabouts, this is indeed a very realistic question.Unexpectedly, Liuli was as careful as a hair, and she had considered so thoughtfully for her without making a sound.

"Okay." Seeing her panic, Liuli couldn't bear to embarrass her any longer, so she said, "When the general wins, I will arrange these things for you."

"grandmother!"

Tears welled up in Haitang's eyes, she immediately lowered her head and twisted the corner of her clothes.

Liuli smiled and patted the back of her hand. "The three of you have all suffered hardships with me, and I won't treat any of you badly. But now is not the time to talk about these things. Now you help me deliver a letter to Prince Yu's mansion to Concubine Qi, and then my bedside There is a small package, which contains part of the land deed property and bank notes, you can help me take it to her."

She originally wanted to give it to Lu Muyang, but Nie Jue had been hanging out with Lu Zhaoqi Yunhao openly for a long time. This time, he might have his mission. She can be exempted from the crime, and with a deep relationship with Nie Jue, she probably won't be able to spare herself to run around for her.

Prince Yu is the most senior royal family member in the court, and he is also the younger brother of the Holy Majesty. He has been dealing with the prince and Lu Zhao, and neither party has offended them, so the turmoil of seizing the throne will definitely not affect them.Concubine Qi is very loyal, entrusting this matter to her could not be more secure.

After seeing off Haitang, Huang Momo and the others also packed up.Nanny Yu brought Little Dulu over to show her. When the little guy saw his mother, he smiled and narrowed his eyes, unaware that he was about to say goodbye to his mother.

Liuli kissed his little cheek several times, and then kissed his palm, wiped away the tears on his face, let Madam Yu carry him down, and lifted the curtain into the room by herself.

She didn't come out until Rui'er hugged Xiao Dulu and kowtowed outside the curtain with tears in her eyes.

She has never been a mother without the pain of intimacy and separation. Xiao Dulu is the person closest to her blood in this world. She is her child who was born after experiencing heart-piercing pains during her October pregnancy. No one is so closely connected with her. The relationship between mother and child is the love and pain that even a husband cannot give his wife.

Liuli stayed alone in the room until late at night, and then ate a few mouthfuls of food, there was no sound of little beeps in the room, and Qi Yunhao didn't come back again, making her look even more deserted.

The closer the time was to the appointed time, the more difficult it became. At noon the next day, Fan Yun came back to answer the question, and Wu Zhong also came to ask about the two matters that Qi Yunjing had made, but at least he diverted his attention, and until dusk, Qi Yunhao was finally in the dust. came back.

I don't know how many things he has done in this night and day, the whole silver armor is covered with thick dust, even the eyebrows are stained with loess and turned brown.Liuli hurriedly asked Linglan to prepare hot water for him to take a bath, and she took the clothes to wait for him personally, knowing that he was in a hurry, so she told him about sending Xiaodulu away.

Qi Yunhao held her hand, sighed and said nothing.He knows the pain of separation, but right now it is safest for him to let little Dulu leave the palace. His feelings for him are no less than Liuli's for him, but he is afraid that Liuli will not accept such an arrangement, so he has been Resisting not to say, now that she has done this, apart from feeling sorry for her tenacity, it is also a guilt towards her.

"Don't worry, I will try my best to reunite you mother and child!" He kissed the back of her hand.

Liuli drew back and hit him on the shoulder: "What nonsense? How could you die?" She said and tightened her grip on his neck: "Even if I die, I have to wait until I am seventy or eighty years old. I can't bite anymore, I can't hear, I can't see clearly And at that time, Little Dulu and many of his younger siblings have grown up, and they are all branching out, making us full of children and grandchildren, and then you are allowed to die."

"Ah."

Qi Yunhao nodded and closed his eyes.

Lu Zhao asked him to bring medicine into the palace before Haishi, and there are still more than two hours to recharge his batteries.Liuli waited for him to finish his bath, then asked Fusang to bring over broth, rice, and a few nutritious and appetizing dishes, and after he had eaten, let him rest in the room, retreated to the study, and found a book In hand, force yourself to calm down.

Although King Dingbei is the God of War that makes the Hulu fearful, Qi Yunhao is also a wise and courageous general, and Lu Zhao is also a leader with a strategy in mind. With the three of them carefully deployed, and with the support of so many advisors around them, it seems that This matter is absolutely safe, but maybe she has never encountered any perfect plan in her life, and it seems that there will always be some loopholes in the end, so she always has a vague premonition in her heart, but she thinks it out again. Where will the sticking point be.

This day and night, she has gone through all the big and small things in detail several times, but she still can't figure out what's wrong. In the end, she can only attribute the reason for her anxiety to herself. She must be too nervous, after all, this matter is so important.

After turning two pages of the book, he didn't move again, but there was a knock on the door, and Qi Yunhao walked in, "It's almost time, give me the medicine, I'll go into the palace."

Liuli took out the mandala that she had prepared in her sleeve, "Isn't it Haishi? Why did you leave so soon? Did you sleep for a while?" At this moment, she suddenly felt a little afraid of its coming, success or failure depends on it, she How much I want to keep this moment for now.

Qi Yunhao nodded, put the medicine bottle into his arms, caressed her face and said: "Sleep for a while. It's almost Haishi, if you don't leave, you will miss something." Turning his head to look outside the door, he leaned over and kissed She let go of her after a while, and said: "I asked Li Xing and the others to stay with you. They won't let you leave the mansion. You must never leave the mansion."

"What about you?" Liuli asked anxiously, "Leave it all to me?"

He said: "Now there are three of the gates of the Nine Palaces with our people, the old man's people have also secretly protected the outer palace city, Lu Zhao has also sent people in, and Nie Jue, Du Rui, Jiang Che and the others are all with us. If you are in the palace, nothing will happen. You are obedient and don't go out."

He told her so, then took a deep look at her, finally kissed her forehead, turned and went out the door.

"Yun Hao!"

Liuli chased him out of the door and yelled at his back.

Qi Yunhao turned around, smiled reassuringly, and walked out of the courtyard with the knife in hand.

Liuli stared blankly for a moment, then suddenly shouted into the night sky, "Li Xing!"

"The little one is here!" Li Xing flashed out from the side in an instant.

Liuli stepped forward, pulled out the knife on his waist, and aimed it straight at his heart.

Li Xing was stunned: "Grandma!"

"You take two people to follow the general secretly!"

"No!" Li Xing shook his head resolutely: "The general has ordered the little one to swear to the death to protect grandma! The little one only obeys the general's orders!"

"If you don't go, I'll kill you!" Liu Li gritted her teeth and stretched the knife forward.In Qi Yunhao's eyes before leaving, she could see the hesitation in his heart, he must know that there is no [-]% certainty in what will happen tonight, so he ordered everyone to stay and protect her!But he underestimated her too much, how could she stay in the deep house and enjoy the protection of the guards knowing that he was alone in danger?
