Abao left the tent and saw his uncle Meng Jue waiting outside.
He hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and called out in a low voice, "Uncle."
Meng Jue glanced back at the tent to make sure there was no movement, and then said in a deep voice: "Follow me."
Abao obediently followed Meng Jue into another tent. Two of Meng Jue's confidants were standing outside.
Meng Jue's expression was always bad. He stared at Abao for a while, and then suddenly said: "Now you should tell me what is going on, right? As the eldest prince, he left the palace suddenly, and he was like that kind of person. Women of unknown origin are mixed together, have you forgotten your identity and the burden you bear!"
"I didn't!" Abao immediately retorted.
He looked up at Meng Jue, and for the first time he refuted Meng Jue's words righteously, "Sister Xue is not some unknown woman, she even saved me!"
"oh?"
Meng Jue snorted, "If you hadn't left the palace without permission, how could you have been in danger? I think this woman might have been sent by your enemy to get close to you on purpose!"
"No! Absolutely not!" Abao retorted excitedly, saying two sentences in a row.
After finishing speaking, he felt that there was no need to argue so much with Meng Jue.
Suddenly he lowered his voice and asked, "Does uncle really not know why I suddenly left the palace?"
"The king said that you insist on going outside and don't listen to dissuasion..." Meng Jue replied subconsciously, but as he spoke, his voice stopped.
Because the expression on Abao's face clearly said: That's not the case.
Meng Jue frowned and said slowly: "When I came back from the battlefield, you were nowhere to be seen. I asked your palace people, but they couldn't explain clearly. I had no choice but to ask the king again, everything was clear. The king of the country said it to me personally, but you..."
A sarcastic smile quickly flashed across Abao's face, and then he snorted coldly: "Of course he said that. Otherwise, when my uncle comes back to protect his family and country, he will find that his nephew is forced by his father to go out for training. ’, why are you so angry?"
"What's the meaning?"
Abao explained with an expressionless face how he was not liked by Yelu Beichen and how he wanted to support the second prince Yelu Chufeng to rise to power, so he forced him to go out.
Later, he told Meng Jue all about the thrilling journey from Beidi to Mengan and Shi Qingxue's many cares.
After hearing this, Meng Jue slapped his palm on the table. The solid wooden table shattered and fell to the ground.
Meng Jue slowly retracted his hand, but the expression on his face was furious.
He shouted in a deep voice: "How unreasonable, is Yelu Beichen really bullying my Ashina family? I, Meng Jue, went to the front to conquer the rebellion for him, and he actually bullied my sister's only heir from behind. What a bastard!" "
Abao showed no expression when he heard Meng Jue's unceremonious abuse of Yelu Beichen. Anyway, he had no feelings for Yelu Beichen as his father long after his mother passed away.
No love, no hate.
Meng Jue cursed for a long time, but when he saw Abao's expression on his face, he felt that the child was pretending to be strong because he had been wronged so much but had nowhere to cry, and he felt even more sorry for Abao.
He took the person into his arms and solemnly promised, "Don't worry, Abao, your uncle will get it back for you sooner or later! You are the eldest prince of the Liang Kingdom, and you have the blood of the Yelu and Ashina clans. Those with noble bloodline are the legitimate heirs to the throne.
The Zenner family want to fight with you? There are no doors! This time your father will cruelly let you go, and the Zener family will certainly be involved in fanning the flames. I will definitely seek justice for you. "
Abao felt the power of Meng Jue's embrace, and felt his cold heart become slightly warmer.
But he still resolutely pushed Meng Jue's arms away, raised his face, and said seriously and resolutely: "Uncle, no need. This time, I don't need you to seek justice for me."
Meng Jue frowned with a stern face, and was about to reprimand Abao for his indiscretion when he heard his little nephew continue to say: "Actually, what my father said is right. It was with my permission to go on the adventure. He said that if I wanted to be a Prince, we are about to go on an adventure.
Now that I am back safely, it is natural for him to fulfill his promise. As for everything else, it doesn’t matter! "
Only then did Meng Jue understand what Abao meant.
He thought about it and had to admit that his nephew was thoughtful.
It is a fact that Abao has suffered a lot. Even if Meng Jue makes a big fuss in the palace now, what happened will not be changed, and it may even anger Yelu Beichen.
If Yelu Beichen takes this opportunity to break his promise again, it will be too bad!
Meng Jue weighed it up, and finally sighed heavily and said: "Abao, you have thought carefully, but this is too unfair to you!"
And it’s very frustrating!
Meng Jue has been on the battlefield for most of his life, mostly going straight and grudges, but now this time, he can be stifled.
Abao smiled and said, "I don't feel wronged."
As long as he can achieve his goal, he is willing to pay the price.
The two were speechless for a while, and then Abao said: "Uncle, I returned to Meng'an yesterday. I had not returned to the palace before because I was worried that the situation would change. I didn't expect that you also returned to Meng'an. Then there is nothing wrong with me. I’m afraid, I’ll go back to the palace tomorrow!”
Meng Jue was pleased by the trust in A Bao's words. His beard was slightly raised and he said grandly: "Don't worry, my uncle is here. Yelu Beichen dares not to admit his fault. I insist on making him look good!"
Abao said again: "There is one more thing, I'm afraid I need my uncle's help!"
Meng Jue patted his chest, "What's the matter, tell me! My uncle will definitely do it for you!"
"It's Sister Xue, I want to take her into the palace with me." Abao did not tell Meng Jue that Qingxue was looking for someone, he only said that he wanted her to enter the palace with him.
Meng Jue thought to himself: The friendship between sharing adversity must be extraordinary, and Qingxue was normal when this child got close to her. Furthermore, if it is true as Abao said, Shi Qingxue can be regarded as Abao's savior, and entering the palace together is not a big deal!
After thinking about it like this, Meng Jue nodded in agreement and said: "I will arrange for her to have an identity as the Ashina family, and claim to the outside world that she is the person sent by the Ashina family to take care of you. Just don't let it slip by then!" "
Abao's gloomy face now had a slight smile.
The child was overjoyed to finally reach this age, and happily thanked Meng Jue, and then refused to stop for a moment, saying that he wanted to tell Shi Qingxue the good news.
Meng Jue looked at his nephew's back, and couldn't help but sigh: The kid is just a kid, why were you pretending to be an adult just now
If you really want to talk about it, Abao is only an eleven or twelve-year-old child, but because he lost his mother in his early years and is a child whose father does not care for him, he was forced to grow up.
Now that the childishness of a child was finally revealed, Meng Jue was filled with emotion and no longer wanted to care about Shi Qingxue's identity.
Anyway, Ashina's family has a big business, but they can't afford to raise a woman
However, if Meng Jue knew Shi Qingxue's identity, he would probably find that Ashina's family really couldn't afford to support Shi Qingxue!
——
Shi Qingxue was also very happy after hearing the news that Abao said that they could enter the palace tomorrow.
When Abao expressed his closeness, he just pursed his lips slightly and did not refuse.
Abao became even more happy and said excitedly: "Sister Xue, after we enter the palace, you live with me. Who are you looking for? Tell me and I will help you find it!"
Shi Qingxue was also infected by Abao's excitement, and the haze of the past few days seemed to have finally been lifted away.
She couldn't help but wiped Abao's head and said with a smile: "Okay, then I want to thank you!"
"You're welcome!" Abao replied very manly.
He pulled Shi Qingxue onto the carriage.
The royal palace of Liang Kingdom is slightly different from that of Mo Kingdom. Although the place where each noble person lives is still called a "palace", in fact, their residences are tall and spectacular tents.
Then there are differences according to the status, the specifications of the tents, and the surrounding small attached tents.
Shi Qingxue didn't know the situation of the Liang Kingdom's royal family, Abao didn't want to talk about it, and Meng Jue naturally wouldn't tell her too many details.
So she remained silent after entering the palace, while carefully observing the soldiers and servants coming and going.
But she was destined to be disappointed, she didn't see Mo Junyang.
Then, she was taken to the eldest prince's palace.
It stands to reason that the eldest prince should be the most noble royal family besides the emperor and queen, but according to Shi Qingxue's observations along the way, the tent in the eldest prince's palace is not considered gorgeous.
Even a little crude.
She clearly remembered the several bright yellow tents they saw when they passed the Second Emperor's palace just now.
Compared with here, it is like a sky or a place.
Shi Qingxue pursed her lips and said nothing.
However, Abao introduced with some embarrassment: "The environment may not be as good as the place where you lived before, Sister Xue. I hope you don't mind."
Shi Qingxue was slightly startled and asked doubtfully: "How do you know what kind of place I lived before?"
Abao scratched his head, "I don't know, but just like Sister Xue can guess my identity from my conversation and behavior, I can also tell something from your conversation and behavior, Sister Xue."
Abao really didn't know Shi Qingxue's identity, but he was sure that Qingxue was definitely from an extraordinary background, so her food, clothing, housing and transportation would definitely be good.
In addition, Mo Country is a rich land with much better environment and food than Liang Country, so Abao feels that Shi Qingxue has been wronged by his grand palace.
Shi Qingxue smiled and said: "Your little head is very smart! However, you and I were able to persevere in the harsh environment of the desert loess. Now the environment is so much better, why would I mind! Don't put it I think it’s too squeamish!”
Abao glanced at Shi Qingxue several times to make sure that she really didn't mind. Then he relaxed a little and said, "I'm going to see my father later, so you can stay here and wait for me to come back, okay?"
Shi Qingxue said in her heart: I am not familiar with the place here, where can I go? Isn't this child too worried
However, in order to reassure the other party, he readily made a promise: "Okay, I'm not going anywhere, I'll just wait for you to come back in the tent."
However, what Shi Qingxue didn't expect was that if she didn't go out to look for trouble, trouble would come to her door on her own.
