In April, the Northern Zhou Dynasty sent people over to hand over, in May, Emperor Zhou died, Yu Wenjing succeeded to the throne, the year name Shunde, the national mourning for three years, June, Rouran rebellion, the Northern Zhou Dynasty chaos into a pot of porridge. But Dayue and Xishu, who were supposed to fall into the well and take advantage of the fire to rob, did not react at all. Da Yue is because the emperor is seriously ill and is about to mourn the country, and Xishu is said to be because of the instability of the East Palace, which has led to the unresolved question of the selection of generals for the war, strange peace, strange peace.

Xiao Hengyan has never moved to the East Palace, June is the hot time, not only to do filial piety in front of the bed, but also to deal with the government, just after dealing with a batch of twists and turns, the sky is already full of sunset, red as blood.

Such a beautiful view, if she was in ......

"Your Highness, Your Highness, please go down and see my mother, please ask Your Highness to see my mother, my mother has an accident, Your Highness is not ......"

The voice from outside made Xiao Hengyan feel anxious for no reason, and he asked impatiently, "Who is in trouble?"

The little chamberlain was still young, and he said thoughtfully, "Yes...... The Jiaolan girl next to the crown princess. ”

The little chamberlain kept complaining in his heart, this princess has been through the door for more than half a year, and His Royal Highness has never even entered the princess's room as a newlywed, and has never taken care of it. The discerning people in the mansion can see that the princess is not liked by His Royal Highness the Prince, and the people in the mansion also try not to let the people in the princess's courtyard disturb the prince, and today is really unstoppable, but seeing His Royal Highness the Prince's face, he thinks that he should not let them out of the hospital, and make trouble for him all day long, and after today, he has to let her know what status he has in the mansion, hmph, he can't even weigh himself.

Sure enough, when Xiao Hengyan heard that it was the crown princess, his face was even more displeased, but he still said: "Let her come in, if it's okay, don't let her come to the front yard in the future." ”

"Yes. The little waiter got the order, and hurriedly went out to summon Jiaolan in. And Jiaolan finally saw Xiao Hengyan, threw herself on the ground and began to cry.

"Please Your Highness save my mother, my mother's health is not good, I can't stand the heat, I want to find a house to ask for an ice cube, I can only buy it from the outside, but this morning, Mrs. Chen detained our ice car, and now Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Li are still burning the brazier in the mother's room, such a hot day, burning the brazier will cause heat stroke, the mother is not in good health, where can I stand it, the slaves and maids are useless, I can't stop it, I beg Your Highness to see my mother, otherwise the mother will really have an accident, please Your Highness, the slave begs Your Highness...... Jiao Lan's face was full of tears, and she kowtowed as she spoke, and her forehead instantly turned red.

Xiao Hengyan rubbed his eyebrows, trying his best to suppress the boredom in his heart, "Let's go." ”

Jiao Lan stopped kowtowing crying, sobbing and choking in front, speeding up her pace without a trace, anxious, Xiao Hengyan seemed to be aware of it after walking briskly for a while, frowning and not knowing what he was thinking.

There was really a miasma of smoke in the Chenxi Palace, five braziers were blocked at the door, the charcoal in the brazier was all ashes, and a layer of dried wormwood was placed on it, and the concentration of smoke covered up the situation in the room. The maids were blocked from the door, and Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Li, who were fishing for shi, stood outside the door and pointed out.

"There's cockroaches here, so you have to smoke them. ”

"Yes, yes, my sister is not in good health, smoke some wormwood, you can get rid of the evil spirits, but you can't let those evil things invade my sister. ”

"That's it, come, smoke again......"

"What are you doing?" Xiao Hengyan's deep voice came from behind, and the two who were still gloating were startled, seeing Xiao Hengyan coming, they couldn't figure out Xiao Hengyan's attitude, Mrs. Li, who was dressed in yellow, knelt down and said: "I heard that my sister is sick and has been ill for a long time, and there has always been an evil that has infested my sister, so we asked the imperial doctor, saying that this smoked wormwood can drive away evil spirits, so I wanted to give it a try, maybe...... Sister, is this illness cured?"

"Yes, yes, we're all doing this for my sister's good. ”

From afar, the choking smell of soot mixed with the smell of wormwood rushed into Xiao Hengyan's nasal cavity, which made him feel a pain in the back of his head, and it was conceivable that it was difficult to breathe in the room blocked by five braziers. Xiao Hengyan looked at the two of them and said gloomily: "Remove the things, and in addition, everyone will be grounded for a month." ”

Chen Li and the two glanced at each other, and then they relaxed slightly, and at the same time despised the crown princess even more.

Waiting for the people to move away from the brazier, then I saw a woman wearing a moon-white regular dress, wearing a cyan gauze scarf covering her mouth and nose, slowly stepping out of the door with her head down, the green silk was half pulled, and only a rosewood hairpin was fixed on her head, and her head was lowered, only the hand looked extraordinarily pale, and she walked down the steps to the courtyard before putting down the wet gauze towel covering her nose. Jiao Lan hurriedly rushed over to support her, and the woman slowly raised her head, and a stunningly beautiful, but sickly pale face, little by little, appeared in Xiao Hengyan's eyes, making Xiao Hengyan's hands and feet weak, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

"Long time no see, Ayan. ”

Xiao Hengyan almost didn't want to believe his eyes, but the person he had been thinking about for nearly a year appeared in front of him like this, making him have to suspect that this was a dream, but the smell of soot and choking wormwood that still remained on his body reminded him that this was not a dream.

"You....... I...... You are..... When will it ......?" Xiao Hengyan asked excitedly as he pondered.

"Why didn't you lift the hijab that day? That crown is too heavy, and if you did, I wouldn't have to wear such a heavy tiara. Guo Shu squinted his eyes and smiled.

If time could be repeated, Xiao Hengyan couldn't wait to stride towards himself seven months ago, and then slap the groom who didn't lift his hijab twice. If you lifted your hijab, why did I wait seven months?

But after thinking about it, if he hadn't gone to tell the Guo family that when they got married, he would have found someone to worship the hall first, he wouldn't have taken it for granted that day that this was just a dummy, so he didn't lift his hijab and had a preconceived idea.

But the question is, where could he have thought that the Guo family did not find someone to replace him at all, but found himself and sent him out to worship.

"Okay, I'm fine, I've been staying in the room, and I can get rid of the musty smell on my body with wormwood smoke, cough~~"

When Xiao Hengyan heard the coughing sound, his face inevitably sank, and it was not good to face Guo Shu with such a face, so he turned around and said to the two initiators, "Get out!"

Okay, these two people will not have a good life in the future, Xiao Hengyan is not a good person, Chen and Li feel half cold.

Xiao Hengyan looked at the smoky Chenxi Palace, frowned, looked at Guo Shu's increasingly thin body, and didn't dare to rest assured that she would continue to stay here, striding forward, Guo Shu suddenly felt that the light in front of him suddenly dimmed, and before he could react, he felt that he was being picked up in the air, and he didn't dare to struggle for fear of falling, so he had to bury his head in Xiao Hengyan's arms.

Xiao Hengyan was really not idle, and after carrying Guo Shu all the way into the dormitory, he hurriedly went to deal with other things. Guo Shu was familiar with it, but he only relieved the strong smell of wormwood on his body, so he could only find his own incense strips and add a little flower incense, which was clear and strong, and diluted the smoky smell. After freshening up, Guo Shu took out a box of ointment, beckoned to Jiaolan, pulled it in front of him, and slowly applied the ointment.

"This medicine is the best, I use it myself, you say you, but you are just looking for someone, even if you can't find it, what is it? It's just that it was smoked twice, and they can't really do anything to me, and they will hurt you. ”

Jiao Lan pursed her lips aggrievedly, "Niangniang, how can you let them bully, Niangniang, you don't say anything, Your Highness doesn't know, obviously as long as you are willing to see Your Highness, there will be nothing......"

Guo Shu stared straight at Jiao Lan with a pair of eyes, stopped Jiao Lan's words, seemed to be a little angry, and the whole person gradually became transparent, looking extremely terrifying.

But Jiaolan seems to be used to it, compared to when she first saw Guo Shu covered in transparency, as if she was made of water, now it is much better. But every time it gradually becomes transparent, it means that Guo Shu has mood swings, just like now, he is angry. But Jiaolan didn't want to apologize, she didn't understand why Guo Shu was so persistent, she didn't fight back if she was bullied, she did it on purpose today, otherwise on such a day, there would be suffering, she was wronged, but Niangniang couldn't.

Jiao Lan looked stubborn and refused to admit her mistakes, Guo Shu also softened, she also understood that this was her intention, but she didn't want to see Xiao Hengyan like this.

"Squeak~~"

When Xiao Hengyan entered the door, he saw Guo Shu concentrating on applying medicine, and the yellowish candlelight reflected on her face, but it was not as pale as during the day.

Jiao Lan turned her head to see Xiao Hengyan, and wanted to kowtow again, Guo Shu grabbed her tightly, wiped away the traces of a white ointment on her face that had just been misapplied, and carefully applied the medicine before letting go of her. Although Xiao Hengyan was ignored, he didn't care, poured a glass of water for himself, and when Guo Shu finished applying the medicine, he handed it over exactly in time.

Jiao Lan retreated with amusement and closed the door with her hand. As soon as the door was closed, Xiao Hengyan instantly removed his indifference and sharpness in front of outsiders, with a smile on his face, he naturally walked over and hugged Guo Shu, picked her up and put her on his lap, and rested his head on her shoulder.

"It's you, the seventh day of the first concubine. ”

Guo Shu was taken aback, "I ......"

Xiao Hengyan rubbed on her neck, and the warm airflow brushed her earlobes intentionally or unintentionally, making her feel a little hot for no reason, and the warm feeling in her body burst out from her heart, flowing to her limbs, making her cold body gradually soften.

"I know, it doesn't matter, no matter what you become, no matter what you've done, I know, that's enough for you. Xiao Hengyan's deep voice whispered. In fact, he also guessed, but looking at Guo Shu's stumbling appearance, he understood most of it in his heart.

He had snuck into Emperor Yue's study and seen a painting of a man, a young man holding a sword to be exact, but exuding a strong bookish aura. It can be seen that the painter is highly skilled, and he not only draws human skin, but also human bones. But he never knew who the person in the painting was, until he saw the Pure Heart Taoist. The painting has a year, and the mark is the seventh year of the Chengli calendar, which was when his father had not yet ascended the throne, which is nearly thirty years ago.

In the past thirty years, people are like frozen in time on paper, without the slightest change, so young, as if they are still just teenagers.

At that time, he had already guessed that this Tinghua Mountain might be different from other places, and he even thought that even if they were demons and monsters, he didn't care, he didn't want to let go of this person in his arms. She has carried so much, a person with bloody hands and calculations, but she is still so transparent and pure, smiling at everyone (???), such a distressing person, he will not let go.

"So what?" Guo Shu stretched out his hand that was so transparent that he could barely see the outline.

Xiao Hengyan raised his head to look at Guo Shu's eyes and followed her gaze......

To be honest, such a scene, even though Xiao Hengyan has done psychological construction, it is still a little difficult to accept.

Xiao Hengyan reached out and wrapped his hand, which was already close to the temperature of ice, and pulled it into his arms.

"Is it cold?" Xiao Hengyan was a little distressed.

Guo Shuleng paused, but he didn't expect that in the face of such a situation, he was not surprised, scared, or excited, but ..... Distressed?

"It's not cold, it's just ...... Aren't you afraid?"

"Has it always been like this? That's why you don't want to come out to see me?" Xiao Hengyan clasped the back of Guo Shu's head and let her ears be pressed against his chest.

The steady heartbeat was beating strongly.

"No, it's much better now, it's just that it's like this when you're emotional, and you can't be exposed to the sun during the day, everything else is fine. Guo Shu did not answer the latter question, but obviously, Xiao Hengyan affirmed his thoughts.

Xiao Hengyan let go of his hand, and in this position, he picked up Guo Shu by the waist and put him on the bed, condescendingly, with his hands on both sides, and the whole person shrouded Guo Shu in his shadow.

"Tired, sleep, tomorrow there will be nothing to do. ”

......

Guo Shu seemed to have thought of what would happen later, and he was completely red from his neck to his ears. But Xiao Hengyan only used the literal meaning, he really just hugged her and slept for one night.

Didn't even chat, just slept like that?

Was she acting too clear before?

Lonely men and widows, in the same room, covered with quilts, and then really sleep?

Well, dear quilt, sure enough, you are still pure.
