Chapter 84: Drinking Hatred
Qiao'er's combing skills are not bad, and she seems to have figured out her preferences, the hairstyle is not very complicated, simple and generous, and there is no bunch of step shakes and golden hairpins on her head, only a few pink beaded flowers on the hairpin.
After all, she is still newly married, so the clothes on her body are also water red, which makes her complexion very good, and she doesn't need to put on makeup at all.
As soon as the qiē was done, Xiao Man walked towards Wei Chimu, who had been sitting patiently and waiting.
"Is it good-looking? Isn't it a little strange?" The so-called woman is the one who pleases herself, and in front of the person she likes, she naturally pays special attention to her appearance.
"It's so beautiful that I want to hide you. Yu Chimu reached out and touched her face and smiled.
"Kanaya Zangjiao?"
Wei Chimu was stunned, "It looks like it in your book there?"
Xiao Man nodded and smiled: "This idiom is an allusion, I'll tell you on the way!" She pulled him up, and the two of them were about to step out of the room.
Some clothes and gifts for meeting the lord of the Shengxing Dynasty had been prepared yesterday and loaded into the carriage, and now they only had to go out.
"Lord and princess, this time it is a long way to go to the Shengxing Dynasty, do you want to bring Qiao'er to serve the princess?" Qiao'er said suddenly as they crossed the threshold.
Chi Xiaoman glanced at Wei Chimu, and when she saw that he said that she would let her decide for herself, she looked at Qiao'er and said, "The prince has already made arrangements, and you have this heart of the concubine, so you can stay in the Spring and Autumn Pavilion." ”
"Yes. Qiao'er said with low eyebrows, but Xiao Man clearly saw the disappointment in her eyes.
What is she disappointed about? Xiaoman has no time to explore, but he already thinks in his heart that he was right not to bring her, and there must be something wrong with this Qiao'er!
followed Yu Chimu to the gate of the palace. Seeing the team led by Cheng Shangshu, the sky was already bright at this time. Looks like they've waited long enough.
But in addition to Cheng Shangshu and his party, the other person waited longer. Chi Xiaoman caught a glimpse of Chu Qianqian, who was looking at Yu Chimu with an obsessive face. There are some sighs in my heart, and some are not tasteful. When Yu Chimu and Cheng Shangshu were doing superficial greetings, she walked towards Chu Qianqian.
She felt pity for Chu Qianqian, the man she liked didn't have herself in his heart at all, what a sad thing, but she just pitied her, but she never sympathized with her, who let her covet her man!
Chu Qianqian came to the Huai'an palace in the middle of the night, but the people in the palace told her that the prince and the princess had rested. It was inconvenient to disturb, so she had to rest in the guest room of the palace.
She was very happy to be able to follow Yu Chimu to the Shengxing Dynasty this time, although there was a hated Chi Xiaoman, but being able to follow the pavilion master to serve her was very satisfying.
She didn't sleep all night, even if she came to Huai'an Palace's mansion from the main altar of the Shadow Pavilion and rode a horse for more than an hour, she didn't feel tired, on the one hand, she went to the Shengxing Dynasty this time. She can follow Yu Chimu for at least two or three months, and on the other hand, she is also thinking about how to use this time to snatch Yu Chimu from Chi Xiaoman's side.
She thought of countless ways, and her heart was both excited and melancholy. She was very confident in her plan, but she felt that the pavilion master loved Chi Xiaoman so much, maybe her plan was successful. I can't get the heart of the pavilion master......
"I want to wronged you as my maidservant, so that people will not doubt your identity. Chi Xiaoman looked at Chu Qianqian. The tone was not sincere, not so much that she was sincerely wronged. It's better to say it's just an order.
"What did we agree to do before, let me stay with you for a year, and if I can snatch the pavilion master away, you will be willing to leave. Chu Qianqian raised her eyebrows and looked at her.
"Of course, I'm a gentleman, and it's hard to chase after me, but don't think I'll give it up, we will each rely on our abilities!" Chi Xiaoman said with a smile. She wasn't worried at all, because she believed in Yu Chimu.
Chu Qianqian said: "This is natural, I won't lose to you!"
You've already lost, chick. Chi Xiaoman looked so sad with a look on his face.
Chu Qianqian's willow eyebrows furrowed, and she felt that her expression was really annoying, what was that? Sympathizing with her? What did she have to sympathize with, instead of sympathizing with her, Chi Xiaoman should worry more about herself!
However, the two didn't have a chance to argue, because Wei Chimu had already given the order to set off and walked towards them.

Twenty days later, the army of the king of Huai'an entered the territory of the Shengxing Dynasty.
The Shengxing Dynasty in winter drifted with thin snow, and this was the first winter that Chi Xiaoman had spent in this time and space.
She lives in a subtropical climate zone in the 21st century, and it is difficult to see snowfall, so she was a little excited at first, but after a few days of snow and a horse-drawn carriage all the way, she felt very bored.
Fortunately, with Wei Chimu by her side, and Chu Qianqian came to anger her from time to time, she also dissipated some boredom.
On the other hand, in the palace of the Shengxing Dynasty, in the Donghe Palace, the crown prince Xuanyuan Yu came to the most remote attic. This attic was originally built by him to look out at the scenery outside the palace, and now it is used to imprison Ji Minzhi and Xiaolian.
Ji Minzhi's shoulder injury has healed, although he has left a scar, but a few injuries on the man's body are nothing, but the tendon on his right hand is broken but he can't get better, and his right hand is completely useless.
If it weren't for the sustenance of having to take care of Xiaolian, maybe he wouldn't be able to support it.
He used to be such a proud person, but now he has become a prisoner, and he has become a useless waste, and even he looks down on himself.
Is Xiaolian also unwilling to open her eyes to see him again because of this?
Although the swelling on Xiaolian's face has long since subsided, the scab scar is indeed a little hideous and terrifying due to the late treatment.
She was not awake and was still unconscious. In order to save her life, Xuanyuan Yu waited for Chi Xiaoman to come, and specially invited his father to invite the imperial doctor to come to see her and find out the reason why she was unconscious.
However, even the most powerful imperial doctor in the palace was helpless, because Xiaolian herself was unwilling to wake up.
Ji Minzhi guarded her day and night, personally fed her decoction, and personally scrubbed her body.
Xuanyuan Yu didn't abuse them anymore, and the three meals were brought on time, but they were just locked up like this.
"There are only two days left. If Xuanyuan Liuxia doesn't show up two days later, then I can't complain about what I did to you. Maybe cutting off one of your hands and legs and sending it to her will make her more positive and come to you. Xuanyuan Yu looked at Ji Minzhi with some evil, "Or ...... Has she given up on you? Do you know the answer?"
Ji Minzhi ignored his existence, just held Xiaolian's hand tightly and stared at Xiaolian.
"It's still this dead virtue. Xuanyuan Yu angrily shook his sleeves and left. Two more days, he will not kneel to him and beg for mercy!
Ji Minzhi was not unaware of Xuanyuan Yu's coming and leaving, he was actually quite indignant in his heart, but he was also a little dazed.
Will the Pavilion Master and the Pavilion Master's Wife really come to their rescue?
He's really not that sure......

Outside the imperial city, after rushing to the moon, I finally came to the capital of the Shengxing Dynasty. Xiao Man looked at the majestic palace wall, left for a few months, and then returned here, her disgust for this place did not decrease but increased, and now even the prince's brother has become such a selfish and unscrupulous person to achieve the goal, this place has completely lost the value of her nostalgia.
Emperor Xuanyuan had known about the imminent arrival of the Huai'an royal couple of Yasukuni as early as half a month ago, so there were already people waiting outside the imperial city to greet them.
After entering the imperial city, their group, the Huai'an royal couple and several key officials transferred to the soft sedan chair in the palace of the Shengxing Dynasty, and the others could only walk to the place where the envoys lived in the former palace.
However, halfway through, Chi Xiaoman's soft sedan was stopped.
"Princess Liuxia, the last general Lian Zhen asks to see you. ”
Chi Xiaoman lifted the corner of the sedan curtain in the sedan chair, she hadn't seen this Lian Zhen, but speaking of which, she didn't have a long time in the palace of the Shengxing Dynasty, and there were many people who had never seen it.
But this person does not call her Princess Huai'an, but Princess Liuxia...... Presumably it was not someone sent by his father, or someone from Prince Xuanyuan Yu.
It's just that she believes that it's the latter, because everyone is here, so naturally she wants to go with King Huai'an to meet her father first, so her father doesn't have to make another move to invite people.
"Why do you want to see this princess?"
"Please Princess Liuxia go with the last general to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first. General Lian said.
"Sure enough, it was him...... Hmph, lead the way. She guessed that Xuanyuan Yu's mentality was that she wanted to take him to see her father in person, so that she could ask for merit in front of her father.
Originally, it was planned to let Chu Qianqian disguise the people of the Shadow Pavilion, and then find a way to find out where Ji Minzhi and Xiaolian were under house arrest, and find an opportunity to save people, but now if he hides and can't meet, Xuanyuan Yu will inevitably be suspicious, and when the time comes, he will strengthen his vigilance, and it will be even more difficult to save people.
So she decided to go to see Xuanyuan Yu in person. Besides, she misses Xiaolian, wants to meet people as soon as possible, and doesn't know if Xiaolian is okay......
"Xiao Man......" Yu Chimu's soft sedan chair was in front of her, as soon as he heard that someone had stopped Xiao Man's sedan chair, he immediately ordered the person carrying the sedan chair to stop, so he also listened to their conversation clearly, and wanted to say something to stop Xiao Man from going to see Xuanyuan Yu.
"Mu, let's go meet the crown prince first, he just wants to send me to my father in person. Besides, if I don't go, won't it be difficult for this company general to explain?" Chi Xiaoman said.
Wei Chimu sighed, although he didn't agree with her approach in his heart, but he also thought that today was the last day of the deadline given by Xuanyuan Yu, and God knew what Xuanyuan Yu, who had already been demonized by his desire for power, would do if he didn't see him today.
"King Huai'an, Princess Liuxia, please come here. General Lian gestured.
He was indeed ordered by the crown prince and has been waiting for their arrival for the past few days, and he does recognize Princess Liuxia and King Huai'an, because when the third princess and Princess Liuxia competed in equestrianism, he was also present, and he admired Princess Liuxia's equestrianism quite a lot, and King Huai'an also met several times during that time.
