The next period of time was too difficult for me.
Chabixing almost climbed over the heavy walls, avoided the patrol guards, and even hid in the grass and trees several times. I could only bit my lower lip tightly to avoid terrifying crying while frightened. When I finally climbed over a high wall, I finally reached my limit.
As soon as he stopped, I couldn't help but vomit.
"Miss!"
Although this place was already safe, he was still very energetic. After listening intently, he was sure that no one followed us. Then he bent down and helped me: "Are you okay?"
Because I hadn't eaten, I couldn't even vomit anything, so I only spit out a few mouthfuls of sour water, and barely shook my head: "I, I'm fine."
But as soon as I finished speaking, I fell down.
I couldn't even feel whether I had the strength or not. There was a burst of black and white before my eyes. I felt that the air I exhaled was filled with the temperature of the flames, which made me tremble. Of course, Chabixing knew that I was not doing well in this way, so he hurriedly picked me up and walked quickly inside.
Although my whole consciousness began to blur, I still smelled the faint and elegant fragrance of this place, saw the wooden beams on the palace, and heard the gurgling sound of water coming from the ditch.
Jixian Palace, I finally returned here.
Although Chabixing kept running with me in his arms, as if the whole world was shaking, my heart calmed down as soon as I saw this, and even the feeling of discomfort in my body was relieved a lot. After entering a door and passing through one corridor after another, we finally arrived at a place that I was extremely familiar with.
Outside the gate, there were a few students carrying longbows on their backs. When they saw him carrying me over, they hurriedly came forward: "Senior Brother!"
"Hurry them to prepare water, warmer water!"
"yes!"
When I entered the deepest part of Jixian Hall, his voice rose a little, but it was also depressing. There was no light here. I could only use the little moonlight from a corner of the cloud to see that this place was the library of Jixian Hall. The door opened and he hugged me and walked in, and it was even darker inside.
But you can hear a lot of vocals.
He put me on the soft cushion on the ground, and someone immediately took a glass of water and handed it to my mouth to drink. He just told me to ask for warmer water, but this glass of water was almost a little warm that was not easy to detect, and it immediately became cold when I drank it.
But after several sips of water, I finally took a breath.
I looked up at the surroundings, and felt the black shadow flashing, but I couldn't see anything.
Finally, an old voice heard: "Cluster all the windows, send someone to listen outside and light a candle."
This sound-
My heart suddenly jumped up.
After a chaotic situation around me, a candlelight finally lit up in front of me and slowly moved to me, I saw clearly that the students around me were all those who studied in Jixian Hall before, and the one holding the candlestick was not someone else, but Fu Badai!
My eyes widened suddenly: "Teacher?!"
Why is he still here?!
I was short of breath and almost couldn't get up in one breath. Fu Badai handed the candlestick in his hand to a student beside him, reached out and grabbed one of my hands, and rubbed a point on my hand hard. The point hurt because he rubbed it, but the feeling of discomfort on his body was slightly relieved.
I finally recovered and immediately said, "Why are you still here?"
“…”
"Why haven't you left yet?"
“…”
"Why haven't you left yet?"
He lowered his eyelids and did not answer me. After a while of silence, he just said slowly: "Why did you make yourself like this?"
“…”
My throat choked and I couldn't speak for a while.
But after looking at the students around them, they all looked haggard and thin, half worried and half sad, after a while, Fu Badai waved his hand and told them: "It's all gone, go whatever you should do."
The students responded and stepped away, leaving only the candlelight beside me.
The dim candlelight made the library even more empty, even with a desolate feeling.
In fact, since I followed Pei Yuanxiu to outside Jixian Hall that day, I felt a little bit like that. I felt that there were people in Jixian Hall, and there were no real people left. Although it was not proven, at least in order to preserve the cultural wealth inside, I asked Pei Yuanxiu not to disturb the tranquility here. I think this place has no help to them reorganize the court now. In addition, they were busy, so they didn't want to cause trouble for themselves, so he agreed and did not open Jixian Hall for the time being.
Then, Chabixing came to me at night, and I finally got some contact with the outside.
Because time is tight, we only have time to agree on when to meet, when to deliver messages, and even generally decide when to escape. I didn’t have time to ask more questions about other things. Although I knew that he was hiding in Jixian Hall, I also knew that some students must be staying here, but I never expected that Fu Badai would still stay here!
Why didn't he evacuate with Pei Yuanhao?
Fu Badai ignored me, but picked up the empty cup and stood up and left tremblingly. It took only a year to see him. He seemed to be a teenager again, with white hair and wrinkles on his face. He looked old when he walked.
Chabixing sat next to him and said softly: "When the emperor fled the capital, the time left for us was very urgent, and we only had time to take away people."
“…”
"The teacher's official history has compiled more than a dozen outlines and a lot of information, and it is too late to take it away at that time."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! I gasped: "So he stayed?"
"Well," he nodded, and looked at the students who were almost free to move in the dark, and said, "They all volunteered to stay."
“…”
"These days, we will choose a student to leave every day based on the time when their guards change shifts, and we will also help us pass on messages and let someone come to pick them up. The matter of leaving tomorrow has almost been arranged outside, as long as we can-"
I can't speak.
The lock outside Jixian Hall was of course locked by the people who left. I don’t know what the locked people were feeling, and I don’t know what their mood was when they were here. They heard the sound of falling locks, heard the brigades of people outside evacuated, heard the people in the imperial city going to the city sky, and then heard those people breaking in and killing.
I can't imagine that these days they were staying in Jixian Hall like a cage. In order not to let people outside notice, they even dared not light a lamp. Even if they lighted the lamp, they would block all the windows around and sent people to guard outside. How did they persist in this prisoner-like life?
I said bitterly, "Then what are you eating?"
"I prepared dry food in advance," at this time, Fu Badai walked over from the side, holding a piece of dry cake and holding another glass of water. Chabixing hurriedly got up to pick it up, but he waved his hand and handed it to me: "Eat it."
“…”
Although I was not spoiled, I had just walked away at the gate of hell today. Now I am very weak. Even if I don’t give me delicacies, at least the warm water is better. But now, there is only a piece of cake that is as hard as a stone. I just feel like crying.
Chabixing said, "I'll do it."
After saying that, he took the cake from my hand, broke off a piece and threw it into the water cup, and took the chopsticks and chopped it hard. After a long time, the dried cake finally spread out in the water, forming a cup of batter, which he sent to my mouth: "Miss, you need physical strength."
It means that at least you have to endure this cup of stuff.
Of course, I also knew that this time was not a picky time, and I choked up the cup of things with my eyes closed.
Although it was uncomfortable when eating, it felt a little more comfortable after eating it.
I raised my head, but still looked at Fu Badai worriedly: "Teacher..."
He looked at me, of course he knew what I was worried about, and said lightly: "Don't worry, I won't be a burden to anyone."
"Teacher, that's not what I mean."
"Okay, stop talking. What else do you want to say when you look like this?"
He frowned. In fact, in the past, I had a time when I was even more embarrassed than I am now, but it was not in his eyes. Now, when he faced me like this, I don’t know if he was angry about me or something else, but when he looked at me again, his eyes were filled with heartache. After a while, he said, “There is no doctor here. When I leave tomorrow, I will let them take a good look for you.”
I nodded, but involuntarily, a tear fell from the corner of my eyes.
He sighed, got up and walked away.
I immediately reached out and wiped away the tears from my face. At this time, I could not cry, nor could I spend my energy on crying. My clear mind immediately remembered another thing I had said to Cha Bixing before, and turned to ask him: "The Emperor of the Supreme—"
"He is still not moving yet, because the guards of Linshui Pagoda are different from those in the harem. They have to wait until they leave before they can save him."
"Then my side—"
"Don't worry, Miss, I think, at least before the throne ceremony tomorrow, they probably won't find out that you are gone. But after that, it's hard to say."
"What's the meaning?"
"If Pei Yuanxiu wants to enthrone others as the queen, then no one in Jingren Palace should come."
