Chapter 4312 Because I Promised You
She was always a worried person and easily missed her younger brother. When she heard that her second brother was injured, her anxiety and drunkenness completely dissipated in an instant.
This news was told to her by Cai Cai.
The concubines and ladies of the harem were all here, as well as many children, which frightened them, so the matter was not made public.
Caicai knew that Qian'er missed Prince Lian, so he pulled her and whispered.
Qian'er hurriedly asked: "Where is Xiaoer injured? Is it serious? Does it matter?"
Caicai said: "I don't know the specific situation. However, the second brother should only be slightly injured and there is no danger to his life. Qian'er, please relax."
Qian'er sighed heavily: "This battle is so dangerous. I didn't have a father before..." At this point, she glanced around.
Only a few people close to him knew that his father was still alive.
As for the fact that his father, the emperor, and his mother conveniently killed Boss Liao to rescue Zhou Xu in southern Xinjiang, even fewer people knew about it.
Qian'er didn't notice what he said for a moment, fearing that it would fall into the ears of someone who was interested, so he kept silent.
Of course, Cai Cai also knew about these things.
She said softly: "The queen mother only solved the leaders of a small group of rebels. Although the siege of General Zhou Xu was solved, the real large group of rebels was still dealing with the second brother. This battle is going to end It took four or five months, so it was obviously difficult."
Qian'er frowned: "Sister-in-law, please keep an eye on Niuniu for me. I'll go ahead and ask Brother Huang."
"Niuniu, please leave it here, don't worry."
"Thank you, Mrs. Emperor."
"As a family, what foreign language is spoken?"
Qian'er glanced at Niuniu and saw that she was sitting happily playing with the two little princesses, so she left the banquet and went to the emperor's study room.
The emperor was discussing matters with the ministers.
At the door, stood a straight figure with dark hair and black clothes, almost blending into the night.
"Master Zhuang." Qian'er stepped forward.
Xiaozhuang immediately saluted: "Your Highness."
Qian'er glanced inside.
Xiaozhuang said: "Your Majesty is discussing important matters with all the adults."
"I know."
Qian'er stood at the door.
The snow was falling, being carried by the cool wind, and hitting people.
Qian'er stood for a moment, then turned around and realized that Xiaozhuang had stood behind her at some point.
"you……"
As soon as she said the words, she saw that half of his body was covered with snow, and she suddenly thought, is he standing here to protect her from the wind and snow?
"Why are you standing outside?"
With his status, he doesn't actually need to be on duty outside in person.
Xiaozhuang said: "Brothers have been working hard for days, and today is New Year's Eve. I let them go home for reunion."
Qian'er looked around, and sure enough, there was no sign of other guards.
"Can you do it alone?"
"Princess, don't worry, your humble position will ensure your majesty's safety."
"Oh, that's not what I meant. What I mean is that there are three shifts on weekdays. You can't stay out all night alone. Even if you are not tired, you will freeze to death." Qian'er looked at the hanging bag at the door. The red lantern looked at it and said, "Besides, today is New Year's Eve. Others go home to celebrate the festival, so don't you have to celebrate it?"
"I don't have a family, and I never have any holidays."
"But, why didn't you come back before New Year's Eve just to celebrate the festival?"
"That's because," Xiaozhuang glanced at her, "I promised the princess that I would come back before the New Year. It's not just to come back for the New Year."
Qian'er's heart suddenly jumped.
He came all the way back just because of a promise she didn't really care about.
