General’s Tempest White Moonlight (Rebirth) - Chapter 41
When Liu Mingyue woke up, Yun Fei was no longer in Kunning Palace.
Only part of the Yun Family Army that she brought over was stationed outside Kunning Palace to rest.
Liu Mingyue opened the door of the palace, and wanted to find the fifth prince and brother Jue, but he didn’t expect that there were so many men sitting on the ground in the courtyard, all of whom were still in the army, and he was immediately stunned. And these soldiers of the Yun Family Army all raised their heads to look at Liu Mingyue because of the sound of opening the door, and was frightened that she quickly closed the palace door again.
“Boom boom—”
The knock on the door suddenly sounded, and Liu Mingyue was startled suddenly, pressing her back against the door panel: “Who?”
“it’s me.”
Pei Shen’s voice was as cold as ever.
Hearing that it was him, Liu Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, and even his tight back relaxed. She turned to open the door, but stopped as soon as she put her hand on the door panel.
When did she start to have no defense against Pei Shen? Hearing his voice, you subconsciously want to open the door?
Pei Shen couldn’t hear anything inside through the door panel, frowned slightly, raised his hand and knocked twice.
Liu Mingyue bit her lip, suppressed the emotions in her heart, and opened the door to Pei Shen.
“Breakfast is a bit simple, you will use it first.” Pei Shen said, handing over the tray in his hand. On it was a bowl of white porridge and a few light dishes.
Liu Mingyue didn’t dislike it either. After all, there was a chaos in the palace last night. Now it is a good thing to be able to settle down in Kunning Palace, and she doesn’t have much demand for food. Only thinking about it all night yesterday, but still didn’t think about how to face Pei Shen, and didn’t want to look at him at this moment, so he lowered his eyes and took the tray from his hand.
But somehow the fingertips were pressed on Pei Shen’s fingers.
Liu Mingyue wanted to withdraw her hand as if she had been scalded. She only shrank it halfway, looking at the porridge bowl on the tray, and stubbornly held back.
Pei Shen was ready to catch the tray for her, but she didn’t expect that she would not throw it away this time. His eyes moved slightly, and did not continue to embarrass Liu Mingyue, he lifted his foot into the hall, and put the tray on the table.
“You use it first, I’ll take it later.”
After Pei Shen let it go, he was about to turn around and leave, but it happened to collide with Liu Mingyue who was looking back.
Liu Mingyue took a step back and raised her eyes, and she caught the scar on Pei Shen’s brow bone unexpectedly. Yesterday, although it had been cleaned up, powdered with medicine, and a layer of blood scab formed, it was a bit dazzling because it happened to be on the face.
“You hurt…”
Pei Shen tilted his head away from Liu Mingyue’s sight, black eyes drooping slightly, and said lightly: “Nothing.” Then he passed Liu Mingyue’s side and stepped out of the side hall.
As soon as Liu Mingyue waited for him to go out, she quickly closed the gate of the palace, for fear of meeting the sight of the Yun Family Army outside.
When only sitting down to use the porridge, I can’t help but think about it. Pei Shen didn’t seem to care about the injury. After all, it fell on his face and hindered his appearance, otherwise he would not turn his head to avoid his gaze.
Taking a spoonful of porridge and sending it to the importer, Liu Mingyue suddenly remembered something.
Last summer, the imperial concubine was bitten by a mosquito, leaving a red spot on her neck, but for some reason, the red mark remained for a long time, making her furious. Later, the emperor got the news and rewarded him with a bottle of Yurong Ointment. The imperial concubine put on the red seal, and then he was also relieved.
That Yurong Ointment is a tribute, a small bottle, but it has a miraculous effect.
It is said that if it is applied to the wound, it can decompose and grow muscle without leaving scars. It was just rewarded by the emperor to the imperial concubine.
Then… If she could find the Yurong anoint and bring it to Pei Shen, wouldn’t it be considered that she had reluctantly thanked her for saving her life yesterday?
Liu Mingyue had an idea in her heart. After drinking the last sip of porridge, she put down the bowl and spoon, and planned to go to other side halls of Kunning Palace to find two palace ladies and accompany herself back to Changli Palace. She remembered to put that Yurong ointment in the imperial concubine’s makeup box, hoping that it had not been destroyed by the fire yesterday.
It’s just that as soon as she opened the door, she looked up again.
Liu Mingyue’s footsteps were immediately nailed in place.
“Where are you going?”
Pei Shen happened to come to pack the dishes, and saw Liu Mingyue standing at the door, frowning slightly. After following her gaze, she turned her head and found that the young generals of the Yun Family Army were all raising their eyes to peek at Liu Mingyue.
He turned his head coldly, a group of people met Pei Shen’s gaze, and immediately retracted their gaze and looked in other directions.
Pei Shen took a step forward blankly again, blocking the sight of everyone behind him with his back. He can actually understand that these young soldiers of the Yun Family Army were born in Mobei and grew up in Mobei, and had never seen a woman from a family like Liu Mingyue in Beijing.
Not to mention that Liu Mingyue’s appearance is already outstanding.
The atmosphere of Mobei is open and they will naturally want to see it, and they don’t think there is any problem.
But Pei Shen didn’t want Liu Mingyue to be looked at by them.
The fiery gaze was cut off, Liu Mingyue couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although she could feel that the Yun family army was not malicious, she was still not used to being watched by so many people.
At this moment, remembering what I was going to do, he pursed his lips and asked, “Is there a maid in Kunning Palace? I’m going to Changli Palace to find something, and want to ask two maids to accompany me.”
“Originally there were a few, but now they are all served by the fifth prince.” Pei Shen frowned slightly, his voice couldn’t hear emotions, “Now although the chaos is eliminated, there are still people with different intentions hiding in the palace, if you are What are you looking for, I will accompany you.”
“No, no need.” Liu Mingyue shook her head again and again, how could she let Pei Shen go with her.
Pei Shen’s eyes were dark, “Then I pick two Yun family soldiers to protect you?”
Liu Mingyue thought of the scorching gazes of those young soldiers, and her heart stalked. Under the two, she would rather choose Pei Shen.
Liu Mingyue followed Pei Shen and walked back to the Changli Palace. Although the palace roads have been cleaned again, there are still many shocking traces left in front of the Changli Palace.
After a fire and fighting last night, the luxurious palaces of the old days are now scorched everywhere.
Even a few pomegranate trees in the courtyard were cut off by someone’s waist. The leaves on the trunks were licked by tongues of fire, and they were curled up on the ground.
Liu Mingyue carried her skirt carefully to avoid the mess on the ground, and walked towards Concubine Liu’s palace.
Although the target of the rebellious army last night was the fifth prince, the fire was not avoided here. Whether it is the treasures on the Duobao Pavilion, or the wardrobe with countless Chinese clothes.
Even the shark silk tent covered on the chaise couch was burned to ashes, and the original appearance was not visible at all.
Liu Mingyue vaguely remembered the direction of the dressing table, and fumbled over. Fortunately, although the outside of the dressing table was burnt to black, the contents of the drawer still preserved a lot.
Pei Shen stood behind Liu Mingyue and watched, watching her dig through boxes and cabinets, and later found out a box of gems, and later a string of pearl necklaces that had been burned in half. It was a pity that the thread broke and the pearls scattered just as she picked it up. In one place.
Pei Shen thought that was what she was looking for, so she squatted down to pick up the scattered pearls for her, halfway through, but suddenly heard Liu Mingyue exclaimed: “Found it.”
Looking up, she saw a small jade bottle in her hand.
Pei Shen took a look. The jade bottle didn’t seem to be a precious piece of jewelry, it looked like…
“careful!”
Suddenly, Pei Shen’s complexion changed slightly. As soon as he pulled Liu Mingyue to the corner, a wooden frame next to the dressing table smashed over, smashing the scorched dressing table completely.
Liu Mingyue was pressed into her arms by Pei Shen, and her back hit the wall, but she didn’t feel any pain.
Afterwards, he realized that Pei Shen’s hand was still behind her back.
Liu Mingyue struggled to push Pei Shen away. Pei Shen knew that she was unwilling to make excessive contact with her, and she lowered her eyes to let go, but she did not expect that after Liu Mingyue broke free from his arms, she took a step forward and the soles of her feet stepped on the previous step. Pearls scattered on the ground.
She took care of the jade bottle in her hand and did not dare to throw it away.
Pei Shen went to pull her, but she took the two of them and fell heavily to the ground.
He only had time to pull Liu Mingyue around, and put himself underneath.
The Wenxiang nephrite jade suddenly smashed into her arms, and Liu Mingyue wanted to get up and get up, but holding the jade bottle in one hand, she wanted to get up, but it was a little difficult.
She had just showered and washed her hair last night. At this moment, the hair was scattered on Pei Shen’s chest, and the fragrance of the hair entered her nose. At this moment, Pei Shen suddenly remembered the dream of last night.
Although he said that he didn’t care, the wound on the brow bone kept twitching, and finally fell asleep last night, half-wake and half-dream, but suddenly something flashed before her eyes.
It was in the wing room of Chong’an Temple. In his dream, he and Liu Mingyue were once again entangled with each other.
He hadn’t dreamt of the scene of that night before, but every time he dreamed to the end, he would wake up when Liu Mingyue slapped him.
But in last night’s dream, she never woke up.
And he was facing her… until the end.
