EBE Chapter 157 'Skipping Work'
Chapter 157 'Skipping Work'
"Well, then, please take me to find my brother!"
"Are you so anxious?"
"Uh-huh."
He couldn't wait any longer.
God knows how much sweat he put in behind the scenes to get this promise from his royal brother!
"Okay, I'll take you to find your royal brother."
"Uh-huh!"
Wu Qingyue had just stood up when she heard a man's voice: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
She was surprised and delighted: "You're leaving court so early today?"
"My lady, you're overthinking it." The man said proudly, "I've skipped work."
Wu Qingyue: "...Uh, you're back just in time. Fourteen wants to see you about something."
Xiao Shiyi's eyes fell on Xiao Shiyu, inexplicably giving Xiao Shiyu a sense of oppression.
"Are you looking for me?"
Xiao Shiyu's eyebrows were twitching violently.
"Royal brother, last time you said that if I completed the homework assigned by the teacher on time, you would promise me a promise..."
"so?"
Xiao Shiyu said under pressure: "Brother, I want to go out of the palace for a trip..."
"One trip?"
"Um……"
"How long is a trip?"
"For example, half a year..."
Seeing the man's face getting darker and darker, he changed his words in time: "Two or three months is fine!"
Xiao Shiyi's face turned even darker.
Wu Qingyue was also a little surprised. She didn't expect that he wanted to leave the palace for such a long time.
"What have you been doing out of the palace for so long?"
"Brother Emperor!"
Xiao Shiyu rarely became serious. "Since I was born, I've been trapped in this palace, staring at this square piece of sky above my head. Now that I finally have an opportunity, I want to 'ask' for a long vacation, go out and relax, and by the way, travel around the beautiful land of our country!"
Xiao Shiyi was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "I can promise you."
Xiao Shiyu's face instantly showed surprise, but then he heard Xiao Shiyi continue, "But you need to promise me one thing."
"Your Majesty, please give your orders." Xiao Shiyu responded quickly.
"You must submit a travel diary to me every two weeks, recording everything you see, hear, and think." Xiao Shiyi looked serious.
Xiao Shiyu was stunned at first, then smiled and said, "It's not difficult at all. Thank you, my royal brother, for your help."
Wu Qingyue watched the two brothers from the side, feeling a little emotional.
Shi Yi asked Fourteen to record everything he saw and heard. His real purpose should be because he was afraid that he would lose contact, right?
Xiao Shiyi looked at Wu Qingyue and said softly, "My dear, do you think we should take some time to go out for a walk?"
Wu Qingyue's eyes lit up: "Is it really possible?"
"What's wrong with that? As long as my wife wants to go out, she can do so anytime!" Xiao Shiyi looked doting.
Seeing this, Xiao Shiyu flatteredly said, "My brother and my sister-in-law are truly a loving couple."
Xiao Shiyi pretended to be serious: "You're the only one who talks too much. Why don't you go back and prepare for your trip?"
"Yes!" Xiao Shiyu laughed and took his leave.
"I only give you three months. After three months, no matter where you are, come back!"
"Yes!"
Xiao Shiyu was extremely happy. He had originally thought that his brother would not agree to this, but he actually agreed!
Great! ! !
After Xiao Shiyu left, Xiao Shiyi took Wu Qingyue's hand and went back to the bedroom to discuss the "travel matter".
"Are we really going? The emperor is seriously ill now, and the court cannot do without you."
"I have no interest in government affairs. I'll just leave these matters to others."
"But Xiaoguo needs you."
Xiao Shiyi comforted her: "It's okay, Yue'er, it's not like we won't be back. At worst, we can wait until the weather is warmer before going. Let's make some plans first."
"it is good!"
Wu Qingyue was relieved. She was filled with joy and was thinking about where to go. She said, "Shi Yi, I heard that the Jiangnan water town is picturesque and has all kinds of exquisite snacks. I want to go and try them."
Xiao Shiyi smiled and said, "Okay."
"I also heard that there is a sunset in Saibei, I want to go and see it."
"It's all as my lady says."
The two of them quickly decided where they were going.
Just as the two were happily preparing for their trip, some people in the palace learned that they were about to leave the palace for a trip and began to talk about it.
When the Queen learned about this, she came up with a plan -
She planned to bribe some assassins to ambush on the road, so that she could get rid of them and help Heng'er regain the throne.
"Heng'er, don't worry. Your mother will get back everything you lost and all the humiliation you suffered at their hands!"
Xiao Shiyu acted quickly and packed his luggage that night. This showed how much he wanted to leave the palace.
So he set out early the next morning.
Xiao Shiyu sent a group of secret guards to protect him secretly, so as not to delay his play and to protect his personal safety.
"You just let him out of the palace like that?"
On the city wall, the woman asked the man beside her.
"Ah."
The man's eyes gleamed with an obscure light: "A man shouldn't be kept in seclusion. Going out and exploring the world might be the best choice for him."
When he was his age, he had already led troops to fight in the battlefield. Isn't he alive and well now?
"Well, you're right," the woman agreed.
Xiao Shiyi stretched out his arms and embraced the woman in his arms...
He stared at the woman's belly with burning eyes: "Yue'er, your husband has asked the imperial physician, and he said that if you are 'careful', there will be no problem!"
"what?"
Wu Qingyue didn't grasp the key point of his words for a moment.
The man's big hand touched her lower abdomen, lowered his head and whispered in her ear: "I miss you..."
His intention was obvious, and Wu Qingyue knew what he was talking about almost immediately this time!
"no!"
Is this all that's in his head?
He immediately protested: "Why not? The imperial physician clearly said it's okay—"
"I said no, that's it! There's no room for negotiation!"
The woman had a hard look on her face.
Come again?
"But it's really hard for me to hold it in..."
The man's voice was extremely plaintive.
Wu Qingyue thought about it carefully and felt that she had indeed "wronged" him over the past month -
"Okay, okay, bear with it for a while."
She reached out and rubbed his head. "These three months will be over soon, won't they?"
Still want to endure?
Xiao Shiyi finally couldn't hold back his tears!!!
He really has a hard time holding it in!
A few days later, Wu Qingyue suddenly heard from Xiao Shiyi that Xiao Shengyu's condition had worsened.
"My royal brother probably won't last more than two days."
"Is the situation so bad?" Wu Qingyue asked in surprise.
"Ah."
"Have you found out what caused his condition?"
"do not know."
Yes.
Since Xiao Shengyu fell ill, Zhou Yurou has been taking care of him personally, and it was she who hired the imperial physician to treat him. They are not in a position to interfere in what Xiao Shengyu's condition is.
