Sleeping until midnight, Lin Bao seemed to have been beaten to death. He couldn't sleep anymore, so he simply sat up from the bed and looked straight at Lian Che, who was sleeping like a dead pig beside him.
—Hey, if she can't sleep, why don't you wake up Lian Che and talk to her for a while? After all, they haven't spoken seriously for several days.
However, he has been busy all day. If he doesn't get a good rest at night, will he get twice the result with half the effort the next day? Forget it, let's wait until he sleeps.
Lin Bao sighed and scratched his hair sadly - Damn it, are all the pregnant women in the world as irritable as her at night and unable to sleep
Feeling really depressed, she rubbed her eyes, looked up and looked out the door, and happened to see a figure flash past the door, which made Lin Bao feel a little frightened.
-Strange, shouldn't the palace guards who are keeping watch at this moment be obediently guarding the entrance to the palace? Why are you wandering around the inner hall? Is there... a thief
Lin Bao shuddered inexplicably, gave up the idea of chasing her out to find out, and retracted into bed honestly. After all, it was dark and windy now, what if she chased her out and got into someone else's way
But out of curiosity, she still looked towards the door, always feeling a little uneasy in her heart.
*
Because of what happened last night, Lin Bao almost didn't sleep well all night. It wasn't until dawn that he felt a little sleepy. Thinking that she was pregnant, Lian Che didn't disturb her, changed his clothes and went out. Let the palace attendants freshen up.
He has thought a lot in the past few days. After all, she is now pregnant with their child. No matter what, she cannot be made nameless and identityless. If she wants to give her an identity, she must know her life experience. It seems - He had to ask Gu Rufeng to do something quickly.
When Lin Bao woke up, it was already past lunch time. As soon as he got up and drank some porridge, someone from the palace came to report - "Eunuch Bao, Mr. Nian asked you to meet alone at the gate of the palace."
Senior
Lin Bao frowned and was wondering why Nian Hua was looking for her. Seeing the timid look on the palace servant's face, he was about to agree when Wen Su said: "Master Nian also knows about my father-in-law's current health. Couldn't he come?" Chaoyangdian, do you want to talk to your father-in-law?”
-In other words, what this palace man said is very suspicious.
Hearing this, the palace man started to tremble and stammered: "Nian, Mr. Nian said that it is inconvenient to talk in Chaoyang Palace, and he plans to come to say goodbye to my father-in-law."
Say goodbye
Lin Bao blinked. Although she didn't know why Nianhua left, she should go and see if it was true or not. After all, they were friends. How could any friend not say goodbye before leaving
After thinking about it, she nodded, smiled reassuringly at Wen Su, and said, "Don't worry, I believe in Nian Hua's character, he will never do anything to me."
After saying that, she stepped forward and left the palace together with the palace man.
Someone in the palace was worried and wanted to catch up, but they were shouted back by Lin Bao. They had no choice but to walk towards Wen Su, "Su Su, do you want to inform the emperor now?"
Wen Su pursed her lips, her eyes full of worry, "Of course I have to notify you. You guys go up and follow me from a distance. If you notice anything strange, come back and notify me immediately."
"promise-"
The palace people immediately divided into three groups, one group followed Lin Bao secretly, another group went to inform Lian Che, and the others were waiting in Chaoyang Palace for news from the first group.
Somehow, Wen Su just felt a little uneasy, just like three years ago -
*
Lin Bao followed the palace man for a long time, and then he realized something was wrong. The way she took her was not the way to the palace gate at all, but the way to the cold palace forest!
She stopped and said coldly: "What did you bring me here for?"
Hearing the sound, the palace man turned around timidly, but without saying a word, he silently stepped aside.
Lin Bao felt that the ominous feeling in his heart was getting stronger. He turned around to leave, but was blocked by several masked men who appeared out of nowhere.
At this moment, a sharp female voice sounded from behind her: "Oh, Lin Bao—you have finally fallen into my hands!"
I
Lin Bao turned around suddenly, only to see Yan Chuchu wearing a goose-yellow skirt standing behind her with her hands folded around her chest, with a look of pride and coldness on her face.
"What on earth are you going to do?"
At this moment, anyone with a discerning eye knew what she was going to do, so there was no need for her to be polite to her!
"It's nothing, I just feel like there's some sand in my eyes. I need to get rid of it as soon as possible." Yan Chuchu said in a roundabout way. As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and the masked men immediately rushed towards Lin Bao.
Seeing the disgusting smiles on those people's faces, Lin Bao felt like vomiting. He covered his lower abdomen with one hand and raised his eyes to look at her: "Yan Chuchu, if you do something stupid, then the entire Yan country will pay for you." cost!"
Unexpectedly, Yan Chuchu didn't take it seriously after hearing this. She raised her eyebrows and said, "In what capacity do you think you are saying this to me now? Don't forget, in the eyes of outsiders, you are just a little eunuch, no one will Do you think there’s anything wrong with me killing a little eunuch!”
Lin Bao was startled by her words, but before she could say anything, she snapped her fingers, and the big men began to undress and take off their belts, and walked toward her with a lewd smile.
Are they going to—
Lin Bao staggered at his feet, unable to stand firm, and fell to the ground. Looking at the big man who had rushed towards him, he couldn't help but close his eyes and yelled: "No-"
*
Lian Che, who was in the Imperial Study Room, felt his heart tremble suddenly and couldn't help but shudder. The brush in his hand fell on the desk, turning the memorial on the desk black.
Strange, what happened to him
—Did something happen to Lin Bao again
Nianhua on the side looked at his reaction and wondered, "Che, what's wrong with you?"
He shook his head, and the pain in his heart became more intense. At this moment, he saw a group of palace maids crashing into the door, and the guards on the side couldn't even stop them.
Lian Che raised his eyes and frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
The palace maid who came to report the news did not expect to see Nian Hua here. After looking at each other for a while, she couldn't help but turned pale with shock, "Your Majesty, someone just brought the appointment of Mr. Bao to the palace gate in the name of Mr. Nian!"
Hearing this, Nian Hua just felt something was wrong. He stood up and looked at the group of palace maids, then looked at Lian Che, and wondered: "I didn't ask someone to send a message to Eunuch Bao."
When everyone heard this, they immediately panicked. There was a strong wind blowing around them. When they looked at where Lian Che was just now, they saw that there was no one there, and everyone hurriedly chased after him.
Lian Che rushed to the palace gate at lightning speed. There was no one there except the guards guarding the door.
But at this moment, his heart suddenly twitched. He covered his chest with one hand and knelt on one knee. A layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. His face was also a little pale. It seemed that something was being lost, but he couldn't catch it. Can't live.
When Nian Hua found Lian Che, his lower lip had been bitten and his eyes had a hint of scarlet. Such signs made him have to doubt, "Che, you-"
Lian Che stretched out his hand to push him away, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, listened to the rhythm of his own heartbeat, and slowly walked towards a certain location in the palace.
Nian Hua followed him, and couldn't help but be a little shocked - unexpectedly, Lian Che actually used the Nanshan Sect's unique method - to find people with Qi.
Although this mental method is powerful, as long as you are within a hundred miles, you can find the person you are looking for. However, driving this mental method will cause the caster's body to be physically frustrated. If he does not practice it for ten days and a half, he will be You must never use your inner strength again.
You know, there are dangers everywhere in the palace. If you can't use your inner strength for ten days and a half, it will be extremely dangerous.
But Lian Che did this.
Nianhua couldn't help but admire his perseverance and sincerity. If it were him, he probably wouldn't dare to use this method to find someone so easily.
Feeling the flowing aura around him, Lian Che quickly discerned Lin Bao's aura from it. Without too much hesitation, he raised his legs and used Qinggong to chase towards the place where the aura was thickest.
However, when he arrived there with Nian Hua and a group of palace people, there was nothing but a pool of dazzling blood on the ground.
Lian Che couldn't believe it. He stepped forward to the pool of blood, knelt down on one knee, and dipped his hand into the wet blood. He couldn't tell what it felt like, except that it hurt.
Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he stood up suddenly, his phoenix eyes full of coldness, which made people tremble.
Nianhua glanced at the blood stains on the ground and said, "You shouldn't have gone very far. If you chase me now, you should still have time -"
"No need, I have my own way."
After saying that, he turned and left, his back looking decisive and desolate.

When the Queen Mother heard the news, she couldn't breathe and almost fainted, and then hurried to Chaoyang Palace.
When she walked in, Lian Che was holding Lin Bao's hairband in a daze, his eyes full of melancholy and heartache.
The Queen Mother sighed, retreated from everyone, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, saying: "Boer and the baby in her belly will be fine. Your Majesty, don't worry."
No? -As she said, Lin Bao is still pregnant with a child. How could he not be worried if they were kidnapped by bad guys and hurt both of them
Lian Che closed his eyes and gently sniffed the remaining breath on his hairband. After a while, he opened his eyes and said: "Mother, you don't know how painful my heart is right now. If possible, I would rather not do this." Jiangshan doesn’t want anything to happen to her and the child!”
—Just because she is his life!
The Queen Mother was naturally aware of his current mood. She reached out and gently touched his shoulder and said, "Have you sent someone to look for him?"
"I have sent out all the hidden elite soldiers of the Nanshan Sect, but there is still no news at all." He lamented.
However, his words shocked the Queen Mother. You must know that the elite soldiers in the Nanshan faction are all aiming to kill enemies for the country one day, but now they are spending a lot of time just to find a mere woman. Isn't it a bit too--
The Queen Mother frowned, "Your Majesty, do you know those elite soldiers-"
"Queen Mother, there is no need to persuade me. Queen Mother, you know what is most important in my heart." He said calmly, suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, he stood up pretending to be calm and walked out of the hall.
When he came to a secluded place, he stopped. Gu Rufeng knelt down on one knee in front of him, clasped his hands in his fists, and said: "Rufeng is incompetent and failed to find Miss Lin—"
Lian Che frowned, threw the crumpled note in his hand in front of him, and said, "Check this person carefully for me."
"yes!"
Gu Rufeng picked up the note on the ground and looked at the word "Wen Su" on it. He couldn't help being a little surprised, but he still squeezed the note and disappeared in front of him.
Lian Che narrowed his eyes slightly, pursed his thin lips slightly, and looked into the distance with his hands behind his hands.
-She... could it be him
*
Yan Chuchu, who was waiting for the news in Chuyuan, was a little restless. She was afraid that Lian Che would come to the door with someone. Just to be safe, she simply poured cold water on her body, caught the wind and cold, and quietly recuperated in Chuyuan. .
Talking about the situation that day, she still had some lingering fears.
Seeing that Lin Bao was about to be insulted by those big men, who knew that just when she was about to clap her hands and applaud, she felt a sharp pain in her back spine, her vision went dark, and she lost consciousness.
When she woke up, she was in her own Chu Garden. The maid accompanying her said that she had fainted at the palace gate for some reason and was discovered by the guards, who sent her back.
Although the maid said so, Yan Chuchu didn't think so. She knew very well what she had done.
After lying ill in Chuyuan for several days, she thought that the news would pass, but she never thought that Nianhua would find her in person at this time.
Looking at the gentle man in front of her, Yan Chuchu coughed a few times, took a sip of tea, and said, "I wonder what Mr. Nian has to do with me?"
—She didn’t believe that this man came to her for no purpose!
When she asked, Nian Hua didn't hide anything. He raised his eyes and looked at her steadily, using his eyes to indicate to the people around him that they were waiting too much.
Although she didn't know what kind of trick he was playing, Yan Chuchu still asked the irrelevant people to retreat and wait for his next words.
After being silent for a long time, Nian Hua looked at her and said firmly: "What did you do to Lin Bao when you called her out that day?"
Suddenly, Yan Chuchu's heart sank suddenly, she turned away and said with a guilty conscience: "Master Nian, Chu Chu doesn't know the Lin Bao you are talking about, so why did she say anything to her?"
Hearing this, Nian Hua narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at her with a scrutinizing gaze.
In fact, what he said was not nonsense. If Ruyan hadn't accidentally mentioned to him what Yan Chuchu said to her that night, he probably wouldn't have suspected her.
After all, in the eyes of outsiders, Yan Chuchu is a well-informed lady, not a petty boudoir.
Perhaps she was a little uncomfortable looking at him, and Yan Chuchu was a little irritated. She turned to look at him and said: "Sir Nian, you can eat randomly, but you must not talk nonsense! As a princess of a country, how can I treat a The little eunuch started?"
Nian Hua's thin lips parted slightly, "So, do you know Lin Bao's identity?"
Yan Chuchu was startled, and then she realized that she had been cheated!
But even if she was exposed, she didn't feel embarrassed. She just said: "I can't tell that Mr. Nian is interested in his brother's women!"
