Chapter 13 Explain

When the night comes, the imperial city is covered with white white, like snow.

Eunuch Qi came in and put a thin quilt on Xiao Yu who was sleeping against her.

"Your Highness, go and be busy." Eunuch Qi whispered, "I'm here."

Chu Zhao did not refuse, gently stroked Xiao Yu's head, let him lie in Eunuch Qi's arms, then got up and walked out.

There are many officials and women kneeling outside, so they don’t have to cry at night, but it’s very tiring to watch the night, and they are physically and mentally tired.

Hearing the footsteps, the officials and women all looked up and saw the girl walking out.

These days they are no strangers to this girl. Although they have not been enthroned, the Chu girl appears anywhere where the emperor Changsun is.

She is also very busy.

Deng Yi saw her, Eunuch Qi saw her, Xie Yanfang saw her--

In contrast, the Emperor Changsun just knelt in front of the emperor's coffin and did nothing. A six-year-old child had nothing to do, so such a queen must act on behalf of the Emperor Changsun. In the future—

The girl must have felt the gaze around her, but she didn't look squinted and walked out slowly. Behind her was a girl dressed in a palace maid but did not look like her at all.

She was about the same age as Chu Zhao. Compared to Chu Zhao's eyes, the girl looked back immediately, and her eyes were flashing fiercely.

Other palace maids lowered their hands and heads, while she raised her chin and pressed her hands against her waist, as if she wanted to draw her sword at any time—

Although I don’t believe that this girl really dares to commit crimes, it’s better to have less than more things, and the officials and women took their eyes back.

When Chu Zhao walked outside the hall, the summer night breeze was not very refreshing, but it could make people spit out the turbid air gently.

"Where is Uncle Zhong?" Chu Zhao asked Xiaoman in a low voice.

Xiaoman looked at the sky with her chin raised and said, "How did I know, I've been following you all the time."

That night, with Long Weijun, Uncle Zhong assigned other tasks to Xiaoman and his group of people and stayed in Chuyuan, but Xiaoman did not agree to stay.

"——General." The girl gritted her teeth and squeezed out two words, "Let me look forward to her."

Uncle Zhong glared at the girl, probably thinking that the general's order cannot be violated, so he finally agreed.

Xiaoman has been with her day and night, but she has a bad attitude and rarely talks.

However, I have seen this girl's power, and it can be said that this girl is their life-saving benefactor and Xiao Yu. Chu Zhao and Ale didn't think it was strange, and they wouldn't really treat the girl as a guard.

Ale tried every means to please her and make her happy.

Although Xiaoman seems difficult to please, she is actually easy to get along with. She doesn't talk much, but occasionally stares at Chu Zhao, looks at him and thinks—

Chu Zhao smiled at Xiaoman's answer, stopped asking her, and called an imperial guard to give him a few instructions. The imperial guard quickly walked away. Chu Zhao turned to see Xiaoman looking at her quietly again. His eyes collided, and Xiaoman turned to look at the sky.

"Xiaoman, do you don't like my father?" Chu Zhao asked with a smile.

She asked simply, Xiaoman turned her head and looked at Chu Zhao: "Yes."

Chu Zhao was not angry, and his eyes looked at her softer, and asked, "Are your parents still there?"

Xiaoman's eyes suddenly became very fierce, and she squeezed out three words from her teeth: "I'm gone."

As expected, Chu Zhao whispered: "So you are all families of the soldiers who sacrificed their lives."

If they say this, they don’t like their father and have bad attitude towards Uncle Zhong, which is understandable.

"After all, it's my father who made you lose your loved ones."

As a general, if the soldiers fight, they will always die. The soldiers are all human and have family members.

Chu Zhao knew that there was a place where the families of the dead soldiers gathered in Luocheng. His elderly parents and young children were allocated special military expenses to take care of them and even found a livelihood.

But taking care of it again means losing relatives, especially children, you will feel resentful.

After hearing Chu Zhao say this, Xiaoman's eyes were a little strange. She suddenly smiled, and her eyes returned to gloom.

"That's right," she said, "it's what your father made us lose our loved ones."

What Chu Zhao was going to say? Zhong Changrong strode over and immediately stared at Xiaoman with alert as soon as he saw the two of them talking.

"Don't talk nonsense." He warned.

Xiaoman snorted, turned his head and looked at the sky.

Chu Zhao hurriedly comforted Zhong Changrong: "I didn't say anything. Miss Xiaoman doesn't like to talk. I was asking her if she is used to it in the palace."

Zhong Changrong looked at Xiaoman and glared at him, saying, "If you don't have any habits, you can get used to it in the military camp, and you can naturally be in the palace."

This is also strange. It seems that when he was in the border county, Xiaoman and others did not hide their dissatisfaction with their father. Of course, even if they were dissatisfied, they would still do things simply and reliably, otherwise Uncle Zhong would not have let Xiaoman follow her.

Chu Zhao held Zhong Changrong and no longer focused on this topic.

"Uncle Zhong, have you sent a message from my father?" she asked.

Since that night, everyone has been very busy. Deng Yi and Xie Yanfang have been busy investigating the court, while Uncle Zhong has held the safety of the entire capital.

After Xie Yanfang came back, the city gate opened and he wanted to check and collect the entire Beijing camp. Even with the Long Wei army, Zhong Changrong was too busy to get along. Fortunately, Xie Yan came to guard the imperial city, otherwise he would be unable to do anything - but why did he say that Xie Yan came?

This kid is not reliable either!

Zhong Changrong took back his random thoughts and took a deep breath. Of course, no matter how busy he was, he would send the news to the general immediately for such a major matter.

"I told the general that this resignation must be impossible," he whispered.

For the sake of the lady, the general could not resign.

Although he did not understand these things in the court, even if he married a daughter in the folk, his family was very important. Now that the emperor and the prince are dead, there is only such a six-year-old baby left. When the lady gets married, she is really weak-powered.

etc.

Miss, married a six-year-old baby.

Zhong Changrong was stunned again, his mind was blank. He had only thought about the queen and the lady was the queen, but only thought about the identity of the queen. He seemed to have forgotten that he wanted to marry the emperor as a queen. Now, the emperor is only six years old.

This, this, this-

Is this good or bad?

What will the general think? Are the general very anxious? Will the general disagree?

Although the emperor's order cannot be violated, the general has not violated it-

"Uncle Zhong?" Chu Zhao called out a few times.

Zhong Changrong came back to his senses and looked a little anxious: "I, I will send you another message to the general." After that, he was about to leave.

Chu Zhao hurriedly grabbed him: "Uncle Zhong, stop writing letters, go back to see your father."

Zhong Changrong was stunned. Go back?

"Miss." He said anxiously, and looked around again. The palace hall was deep, and there were many sights inside it looking out-

Zhong Changrong couldn't help but pull Chu Zhao and walked aside, standing in the shadows that were not illuminated by the lights.

He lowered his voice: "How can I throw you, Miss, in the capital now?"

Chu Zhao looked at Zhong Changrong. In the flashes of light and darkness, Zhong Changrong's scarred face became even more ferocious and terrifying, but she could see that her ferocious and terrifying face was full of concern.

"Uncle Zhong, my father is with you, no matter where I am, I am not alone." She said, "With you, I can be safe in the capital, but, father--"

My father is in poor health and his life is not long.

"Uncle Zhong, you can't throw your father alone in the border county."

"My father needs you more than me."

Zhong Changrong knew the general's physical condition better than anyone else. It was indeed exhausted. Coupled with this sudden change, the general who received the news did not know whether the condition of the general was stimulated to worsen—

Now Long Weijun is the guarantee of the young lady. Although the general is surrounded by reliable people, the situation in the court is really turbulent.

"Also, the King of Zhongshan is the greatest danger. Zhongshan County is between the border counties and the capital. If they act and cause turmoil in the border counties, the capital will be in danger."

That's right, the King of Zhongshan has ambitions. He has been in the capital for so many years, so he can naturally be in the border counties. I wonder if the border counties are now in turmoil. Thinking of this, Zhong Changrong wished he could fly back to the border counties immediately—

But he looked at the girl in front of him again, and the girl wrapped in a bad clothes became even more petite.

"Miss, you are alone-"

Chu Zhao smiled and shook his head: "No, I have Xiaoman." She pointed to the side.

They walked over and talked, but Xiaoman did not follow him, stood there and turned his head, but he felt keenly that Chu Zhao was talking about her, so he turned his head even more.

Zhong Changrong had a complicated expression: "She - she is a girl."

But it was not said that Xiaoman was unreliable.

"And." Chu Zhao said, crossing Zhong Changrong and looking forward, his eyes lit up, "Where is Ajiu."

Ah Jiu?

Zhong Changrong turned his head and saw a young general walking towards the palace gate in the distance. The lights were spread on him and the iron armor was shining.
