496 Chapter 496 What happened to the princess?

After that, I lay down for a while, and my whole body seemed to be connected to the mattress. Anyone who wanted to move me away from it would undoubtedly cost me my life. In such weakness, I would still wake up from time to time. Sometimes, I would vaguely see Pei Yuanhao sitting by the bed and looking at me.

It seems now.

I couldn't tell whether I was in a dream or showing that the sun shone through the curtain in front of me on my face, and there was a milky white light around me. I just felt like I was about to fall asleep again, but I felt like I was slowly suffering from a little fire, which made me unable to faint like this.

When I thought of this, I stretched out my hand and grabbed the curtain and pulled it.

The man outside felt the movement, hurriedly reached out and lifted the curtain, looked down at me: "Light?"

As he said, he bent down and picked me up. My whole body fell softly in his arms, and even the strength to breathe was very small. He just opened his mouth desperately to speak, but he hadn't opened his mouth for several days. At this time, his throat seemed to be filled with sand, grinding so hard that blood was seen, and it was difficult to make a sound.

He looked at me in a difficult situation and hurriedly lowered his head: "What are you going to say?"

My lips pressed against his ears, and finally struggled to squeeze out two words from my throat: "Li...er..."

He seemed to be surprised and looked at me in shock. After saying these two words, I no longer had the strength and slowly fell into darkness.

.

This time, I slept more uneasy than before. I always felt like I was on the battlefield where thousands of horses were galloping. Even the earth was trembling with shock, people were unable to stand firmly, and even noisy sounds could be heard in my ears. The uneasy feeling made me frown slightly and opened a thread of eyes.

The sun is more dazzling than ever.

I was so excited that I closed my eyes immediately, but at that moment, I had already seen a familiar figure.

It's Pei Yuanhao!

I felt something in my heart, and I slowly opened my eyes, and then I realized that I was being carried out by him. The sun shone on my face, bringing a slight heat. He looked down at me and said, "Open it!"

Open?

I was still a little confused, and I heard several people around me agreeing to be busy. Subconsciously, I turned my head and saw him carrying me to a carriage. The maids lifted the curtains and saw soft and thick mattresses inside, and the maids brought mats. When everything was ready, he carefully put me in.

This bump made me cough, but it was precisely because of the cough that I became more awake.

Just as he was put into the car, my eyes saw behind him, a water-red figure standing there at the gate of the state capital.

Her fair and jade-like face still has no flaws under such dazzling sunshine, as beautiful as the person in the painting, but her expression is a little lonely, even a little sick, the corners of her eyes are slightly red, and her cherry lips are pale and bloodless. But this is how it adds a bit of pathological softness, making people almost want to hold her in the palm of her hand to care for and pity.

However, when I saw her, I felt that the sunshine was dim.

At this time, Pei Yuanhao had already put me in the carriage. He looked down at me. When he was about to turn around and leave, I didn't know where the strength came from and grabbed his sleeve.

Because of too much force, the joints of the fingers are white.

He looked down at my hand, then looked at me again, feeling anger in my eyes, and he frowned slightly.

The carriage was not big, and the two of them had already exuded a bad atmosphere at this time. I even saw the maids and guards standing next to the carriage and took two steps back carefully.

He looked into my eyes, and suddenly he seemed to remember something. He glanced at the door, was silent for a moment, then leaned down and said to me, "We are back to Texas now."

Texas!

As soon as I heard this, my hands loosened.

Go back to Texas, go back to Texas...

Li Er, I can finally go back to Texas and find my daughter...

My heart, which had been tightly held tightly, slowly relaxed. I let go of his sleeves, and my whole body seemed to be soft. He looked at me, but his brows became tighter. After a moment of silence, he said, "You have a good rest, there is still a long way to go."

I glanced at him, said nothing, and closed my eyes depressedly.

When I heard him get out of the car and give instructions to the maid outside, two maids carefully climbed up and knelt beside me, tucked the quilt for me, and didn't dare to say anything more, just stayed with me quietly.

Although the man was weak, he could hear every sound outside the carriage, including his footsteps, and slowly walked over, as if he had stopped somewhere. Then I heard his low voice, and then a very light and soft "Yeah".

That sound made me sweat all over.

"Madam, are you okay? Your face looks so ugly."

When the maid on the side saw me like this, she hurriedly took out a soft silk squid to wipe the sweat on my face. I looked at her and said nothing after all, but just slowly closed her eyes.

I couldn't fall asleep any longer along the way. Every time the carriage drove further south, my heart became tighter. When I thought of seeing Li'er immediately, I thought that there was something entangled in my heart, and I couldn't relax at all.

The carriage did not go fast, maybe because everyone knew there were patients in it, and the two maids were very careful in taking care of me. After a while, I would feed me some ginseng soup to boost my breath. I also felt that my hands and feet gradually had a little strength, not as strong as I had in bed in the past few days.

When the maid cooked millet porridge with warm ginseng soup for the fifth time and fed it into my mouth, I heard some voices outside gradually, and asked, "When is it?"

"Madam, it's almost time for Mao."

“Where have you been?”

The maid carefully lifted the curtain and looked out, and smiled and said, "I have entered Texas City."

When I heard this, I suddenly became more energetic and hurriedly wanted to get up, but the man still fell down softly. The maid hurriedly said, "Madam, don't be anxious. I'll have a while to go to the prefecture. Have some more to keep my spirits."

As he said that, he sent another spoonful of soup to my mouth. Although I had no appetite, I still ate it.

After a while, the voices around him became louder and louder, as if the whole city had woken up. After driving for a while, the carriage heard a shout in front of him and slowly stopped.

Arrived, arrived in Texas Prefecture!

I was so excited that I was trembling with excitement. Looking back, I had been away from Li'er for a long time. Last time I was here, I watched her cry at me, but Pei Yuanhao didn't let me go back to hug her, and I could only leave her cruelly. Now, I think about it, I am really sorry for my daughter. This time when I return to her, I will never leave her half a step away from her, and will no longer let her suffer any grievances.

When the two maids saw me wanting to get up, they hurried over to support me. They carefully lifted the curtain, and the cool morning light outside immediately dyed into the carriage.

And at a glance, I saw people kneeling in front of the prefecture.

He couldn't help but frowned.

Pei Yuanhao is the emperor. It is normal for all officials to kneel down to greet him wherever he goes, but he should wait until the emperor gets out of the carriage and then kneels down to salute. Why is it like a crowd like this now that it seems like a kneeling all over the ground, not like a tribute, but like an apology.

I reached out to support the car door, and the two maids also carefully supported me. When they looked out, they saw a carriage curtain in front of them lifting open. Someone immediately stepped forward and respectfully greeted Pei Yuanhao.

As if afraid of the cold, the curtain closed immediately.

But just between opening and closing, I had already seen a beautiful red figure inside, flashing and passing.

At this moment, I suddenly felt a tight breath in my chest, and I gasped for a moment. The maid hurriedly stroked my chest: "Madam, what's wrong with you, madam? Are you feeling uncomfortable again?"

"..." I didn't say anything, but waved my hand gently, and saw Pei Yuanhao walking forward and looking at the officials who were kneeling all over the ground with a slightly frown.

The one who kneeled in the front, I had seen the former governor of Texas. At this time, he had already put his black hat on the ground. When he saw Pei Yuanhao coming over, he immediately kowtowed on the ground, making a loud bang. After a few strokes, his forehead was already broken and blood flowed.

Pei Yuanhao didn't say anything, just looked at him, and his face slowly turned ashen.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

When he opened his mouth, all the officials around him kowtowed like pounding garlic, and for a moment he watched everyone begging for mercy to him desperately.

I looked at the crowd, but no one hugged my Li'er, and there was not even a familiar figure. At this moment, my heart sank and I hurriedly tried to get out of the car. The two maids could not stop me, so I could only hold me half and half. As soon as my feet touched the ground, my whole body almost became soft and could only grab them hard.

At this time, Pei Yuanhao had already said in a deep voice: "Say!"

He said this word almost gritted his teeth, and no one would doubt that if the minister's words made him dissatisfied, he would chop off his head without hesitation.

The Palace Mu was covered in blood at this moment. When he heard his voice, he shivered again, and then said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, I am... I deserve to die for death, I am... I am not protected... Li Princess..."

My head buzzed, and my eyes suddenly became dark.

What?

Not protected... Leave the princess?

My daughter is not protected?

I don’t know how long it took, but I heard the maid holding me shouting at me desperately, and then I slowly regained my consciousness. I saw Pei Yuanhao’s face turned ashen and his eyes were red. The mu of the state said tremblingly: “Just the day before yesterday, a group of people suddenly attacked Princess Li’s villa, Princess she…”
