Chapter 44: A familiar person...

044 A familiar person...
At the banquet, Xiahou Appreciation successfully solved the problem of border friction between the Yue Dynasty and the Siam Dynasty for so many years, and immediately became famous in the imperial capital. Many women took her as an example and vowed to be a smart and wise woman. .
But she was still as calm as ever. She was not complacent because she solved such a big problem. She was still in the harem as usual. She stayed behind closed doors in Fengqi Palace, except that she went to Cining Palace every day to please the Queen Mother. , I spent all other time reading books and taking care of flowers and plants in Fengqi Palace.
Xue Wu has always had a grudge in her heart because of the poisoning thing before, but Xiahou appreciates happiness. She still treats her as always, but does not open her mouth to say anything to her. There are some things that you have to think about. , No matter how others solve it, if you can't figure it out, it will be wasted!
"Master, drink tea!"
Xue Wu brought a cup of tea, because the flower sandalwood tea before it was water-free, and now it was made from the flower tea of ​​the Yue Dynasty. Xiahou Shangle put down his book, picked up the tea cup, blew it, and drank it directly.
"It's okay, you can go to work too, I will read the book, I will call you if I have something to do!"
Xiahou Shangle smiled at her, then picked up the book and continued to read it. Xue Wu answered and left.
The better the master treats her, the more uncomfortable Xue Wu feels. She always feels that something is stuck in her heart and cannot be pulled out. If the master can beat her or scold her, she will feel better.
However, now the master not only does not scold her, but also never mentions poisoning, but trusts her more than before. This makes Xue Wu's heart always full of guilt!
"Master, why are you so good to her? Are you afraid that she will poison you again?"
Dead Hong asked in a cold voice. Actually, from Xue Wu's performance that day and the anhydrous smell on her body, Dead Hong knew that the poison came from Xue Wu, just because the master refused to say , So I didn't say it.
What didn't understand him was not that Xiahou Shangle didn't let him tell who had poisoned it, but that she still treated Xue Wu better than before.
"Dead red, let me tell you a story!"
Xiahou Shangle put down the book, his eyes looked far away, and his thoughts grew further and further away. Dead Hong did not speak, but he could tell that he was listening carefully.
"When I was ten years old, my father took me to the House of Internal Affairs to select personal court ladies and guards. At that time, many court ladies were looking forward to let me pick and take away, because I was my father's favorite princess, who was by my side. It’s better than staying with those concubines who have been fighting all day long. Among the many court ladies, I saw Xue Wu at a glance. She was very thin at that time, and her face was sallow and sallow, very similar to me before entering the palace. I didn’t grow up in the imperial palace. I have been growing up with the nanny in Bieyuan outside the palace. Maybe it’s because I don’t have a mother. The nanny and the servants are not good to me. Until the age of ten, my father came to my house. In front of him, he told me that he is my father and he wants to take me back to the palace to make up for the debt owed to me for so many years."
This is the first time Xiahou Shangle has dissected his past. It seemed that Death Red had been touched by something, his eyebrows moved, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by coldness.
Xiahou Shangle was still immersed in the past. He kept looking at a place in the courtyard, sighed lightly and continued.
"At that time, I took Xuewu and Shuitian to live in the palace. There were only three of us in the big palace. Every time it thundered and rained, I would be very scared. Xuewu would hold me and treat me every time. Say, don’t be afraid, even if the thunder strikes down, she will block for me! But I can feel Xue Wu is more afraid of thunder than I am, but she still protects me firmly! At that time I thought, I She and she are not masters and servants, we are relatives, the closest people, and slowly, we have grown up, and I have gradually discovered that the emperor father sometimes treats Xuewu well, and she is at the age of the beginning of love. , I will naturally be moved by that care. But I have always pretended not to know, because I think, if the father is really good to Xuewu, I don’t mind her becoming the concubine of the father, but until I know the father When I let me poison Bai Yuchen and let Xuewu play me without water, I knew that I was the same as her, and both were pawns used by my father! But I was luckier than her. I was a princess. She was Maid! But I don’t blame her. The reason why I treat her well is because although I have doubts about her, she is still the closest person in my heart!"
Outside the hall, Xue Wu covered her mouth, not letting herself cry, her little face was full of tears, it turned out that the master had always known that she had always regarded her as the closest person in his heart!
Kneeling down, Xue Wu hugged her knees and bit her lip, crying forbearingly. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not good. From now on, I will still protect you like I did six years ago. I will only be loyal to you for the rest of my life. you!
In the House of Internal Affairs, there were people sweeping the floor at noon.
Ming Bai looked at the dust on his shoes and frowned. He hates his clothes and shoes being soiled by others!
"Sorry, sorry, I didn't mean it!"
A young bowed his head to apologize, and said that he would kneel down to wipe his shoes. Mingbai immediately jumped a few steps back. He couldn't stand others kneeling in front of him.
"I'm fine, don't kneel in front of me!"
The raised his head, his face was a little pale, Ming Bai looked at him, and seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember where he was seen, but his brows wrinkled, then he waved his hand and turned back to Fengqi Palace.
Until he returned to Fengqi Palace, Ming Bai was still thinking about who that face was, but he couldn't remember after much deliberation.
Lying on the bed, he was about to take a nap, and then he would think again when he woke up.
"Ouch!"
Suddenly, Ming Bai sat up and looked at a scroll on the bed. When he picked it up angrily and was about to throw it aside, the scroll opened. It was a portrait of Zhang Jinbao.
Ming Bai stared at the portrait, as if struck by lightning, stunned for a long time, and suddenly closed the scroll.
"understood!"
After speaking, he jumped out of bed, opened the door and knocked on the red door.
"Don't let people take a nap at noon!"
Di Hong said something upset, but let him in, Ming Bai sat on the chair, and saw Di Hong's unhappy expression, and smiled immediately.
"Of course not, I have something to do! By the way, you can ask the dark alliance to help me check Zhang Jinbao, I want to know all his information!"
"You check him like this, did he owe you money or rob you of a woman?"
