Before Xia Yao returned to the courtyard, he saw a figure walking against the light from the other end of the path, and after shaking his head, he realized that this person was the Fifth Prince.

I don't know if it's Xia Yao's illusion, I always feel that compared to when she first met Xuanyuan Luo, he seems to have grown a little taller, and his face has grown, but he has faded away from his initial childishness and become a handsome young man.

"Where did you just go? I can't find anyone when I come? He asked.

Xia Yao, "Nothing important. Is it just a little bit of a problem with my father? ”

"That's good." Xuanyuan Luo frowned secretly, "If you need my help with something, just say it." He was afraid that Xia Yao would be bullied by the Xia family and didn't dare to speak up - how could his own woman be bullied by others?

"Your Highness, rest assured." Xia Yao smiled and put aside the topic, and quipped: "You have taken my side as your back garden?" Don't say hello either! ”

Since Xia Yao fell ill, Xuanyuan Luo ran over every day to take care of each other. With Xia Shanghong's acquiescence, the Xia family's nursing home now sees Xuanyuan Luo as if he saw the Xia family.

"You're my fiancée, what's wrong with walking around like a back garden?" Xuanyuan Luo looked right.

The startled Xia Yao was dumbfounded, what about the little cute baby who blushed when she said two words before?

But soon, he awkwardly approached Xia Yao's ear and said in a very small voice that could only be heard by the two of them: "Although I don't know how long my body can last?" But...... I will definitely try to be a good husband. ”

When Xia Yao heard this, she almost wanted to laugh, but when she turned her head and saw Xuanyuan Luo's eyes, those eyes were full of shyness, apprehension, and sadness, and finally turned into firmness.

Human eyes can speak—Xia Yao had always thought it was a joke.

But today she discovered that it may not be the eyes alone that can speak, but the whole face that helps the eyes do what they want to say.

All of his words are expressed - I will be good to you, although I am not good enough now, but I will try to be better.

Xia Yao suddenly thought of the ending of Xuanyuan Luo, who had seen it from the perspective of 'Xia Yao', at the age of seventeen, he was not an adult, and he died because of the weakness brought from his mother's womb.

Weakness is a disease that poor people are prone to get, in the final analysis, it is a lack of nutrition, it stands to reason that the royal family does not have any good things, even if it is not well conditioned when pregnant, but after the child is born, it is raised noblely, and it stands to reason that even if it is a little weak, it should not be killed.

Unless- someone wants Xuanyuan Luo to die!

Xia Yao thought about it, and felt that Xuanyuan Luo's death revealed something suspicious, but it was a pity that 'Xia Yao' in her previous life had not had much contact with Xuanyuan Luo, and she had no idea at all.

"Hmm!" Xia Yao was thinking about this, and replied to Xuanyuan Luo perfunctorily, but her head kept shattering the only little picture in her mind to see if she could find any clues.

Xuanyuan Luo noticed Xia Yao's carelessness, and felt a little annoyed, he mustered up the courage to say what he said, but he didn't even want to listen to her, so he said a little viciously: "What are you still doing here?" Don't you go? ”

Xia Yao was pulled back to her senses, "Go?" Where to? ”

"It's a great day for the weather, let's go out for a walk!" Xuanyuan Luo originally said something casually, but since Xia Yao asked where to go? Just take her out for a ride.

Xia Yao took Xuanyuan Luo's carriage and stopped when it arrived at the lively place outside, and a few people walked on the street casually, Xia Yao felt very strange when she saw anything, and collected a lot of some gadgets.

A few people walked around for a morning, and finally Xuanyuan Luo couldn't help dragging Xia Yao, who was still unsatisfied, to a restaurant where he used to eat often.

As soon as the shopkeeper of the restaurant saw Xuanyuan Luo, he immediately invited him to the private room on the second floor.

"It's still the same old rules on my side." Xuanyuan Luo's expression was sad when he said this, but he soon cheered up and asked Xia Yao, who was sitting opposite, "What do you want to eat?" ”

Xia Yao said: "I haven't been to this place, it's all up to His Highness." ”

Xuanyuan Luo said: "I remember that the imperial doctor said that you want to eat something light now, so let's serve a few light dishes with characteristics!" ”

The shopkeeper got the order, and quickly ran down to the kitchen.

Xia Yao looked left and right, "Your Highness, you often come to this place?" ”

"A few times by chance." Xuanyuan Luo nodded, "This is my uncle's property, it's more reassuring to come here." ”

"Oh?" Xia Yao was surprised: "That shopkeeper seems to be very familiar with His Highness?" ”

Xuanyuan Luo raised his eyebrows and said helplessly, "Everyone wants to know me well." ”

Xia Yao thought about it and nodded approvingly, "That's right." ”

No matter how Xuanyuan Luo says, he is also a prince, and his uncle's family is powerful, who doesn't want to befriend him?

During the conversation between the two, various special dishes were quickly served, and when all the dishes were ready, Xuanyuan Luo picked up the chopsticks, "Eat it and take a look, although it is not as good as the food in the palace, it is also a different flavor." ”

"Hmm~" Xia Yao responded absentmindedly, but she couldn't help but look towards Xuanyuan Luo's side.

In front of Xuanyuan Luo, there were several plates of boiled vegetables and vegetarian food, which looked tasteless at first glance.

"You ......" She opened her mouth several times to say something, but finally paused again, and her whole tangled little face was wrinkled.

Xuanyuan Luo wanted to laugh when he saw it, and quipped: "Don't worry, I don't have a hobby of abusive people, and I won't force you to eat these with me." ”

Xia Yao looked at his smiling face and plucked up her courage and said, "I wonder if the courtiers can try it?" ”

"Huh?" Xuanyuan Luo was stunned for a moment, but quickly nodded in response, and pushed forward a plate of white radish with a slightly oily smell in his hand, "Eat!" ”

Xia Yao stretched out her chopsticks and picked up a piece of boiled soft and glutinous white radish, carefully put it in her mouth, and chewed the radish slightly in her mouth, as if it had turned into juice flowing through her throat and skewered into her stomach.

But this qiē cannot hide its shortcomings of less salt and less oil.

"How?" Xuanyuan Luo asked Xia Yao with a smile, "Although it doesn't have any taste, it actually feels good when you get used to it." ”

Xia Yao's hand holding the chopsticks shook secretly, and asked casually, "Has Your Highness always eaten these things since he was a child?" ”

Xuanyuan Luo frowned and thought for a while, "Is this true, it was probably when I was eight years old that I had a serious illness, and the imperial doctor said that I would not be able to get meat in the future." ”

At this, a trace of bitterness flashed in his eyebrows.

If he didn't know what the so-called food was from the moment he was born, it would be okay, but after Xuanyuan Luo got used to all kinds of ups and downs, he couldn't touch it.

Wanting to quit is undoubtedly painful.

Xia Yao's heart moved slightly when she heard this, she secretly glanced at the two guards who had been following Xuanyuan Luo, and said word by word: "You have been shopping with me and His Highness for a day, you must be tired, it is better to go down to have a meal with Lu'er, you don't have to guard us here." ”

The two guards were indeed hungry, but without Xuanyuan Luo opening his mouth, how could they dare to go down? At the same time, they inevitably felt that this young lady of the Xia family was so bold, and the five princes didn't speak, so she gave an order on his behalf.

Xuanyuan Luo actually felt a little strange about this, and just happened to see Xia Yao secretly glancing at him, he knew that it was estimated that Xia Yao had something to say to him, but it was not good for his subordinates to know.

"All of you go down!" Xuanyuan Luo simply followed Xia Yao's words.

"Yes." The two guards answered, saluted, and withdrew.

Although Lu'er didn't understand why her young lady wanted to get along with the five princes alone, she also obediently walked out of the box.

The entire box was suddenly left with Xuanyuan Luo and Xia Yao.

"Just say something you want." Xuanyuan Luo Dao.

The breeze blew in along the window, blowing the corners of Xia Yao's clothes, and her voice trembled with a hint, "Your Highness's Imperial Doctor......" She couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, "Have you believed it?" ”

――What about being a rich little widow?

Sensing Xia Yao's prudence, Xuanyuan Luo put down the chopsticks in his hand and put away the smile on his face, "Imperial Physician Gong has been in the palace for more than twenty years. ”

“…………”

- Even if you want to live, you can't sacrifice someone else's life because of it!

“…………”

――If you don't find it, it's just that, but now that you find it, how can you see death and not save it?

“…………”

――Didn't you want to find out that Xuanyuan Luo might have been killed? Now that I've found it, why hesitate again?

Xia Yao was silent all the time, lowering her eyes, and Xuanyuan Luo could only see her long, thick eyelashes like two small fans.

Just when he thought she wouldn't speak, a very small voice was spit out of her mouth, "The human body will not consume oil and salt for a long time, which will lead to weakness in the limbs, loss of appetite, osteoporosis, salt and oil are indispensable elements in the human body, just like water, if you can't get it for a long time, it will even ............... Lethal. ”

There are many words in it, and Xuanyuan Luo can't understand them, but that doesn't mean he can't understand the last four words.

-- Causing death!!

-- Causing death!!

-- Causing death!!

is a good one that causes death, for so many years, what if the hardships he has endured and the diseases he has contracted have been calculated by others from the beginning?

He felt a beast of prey living in his body, its hooves like sharp knives, its eyes like blood, and it was howling silently, ready to choose a man to devour.

"What you say is true." The power of his thin body burst out of nowhere, and the chopsticks on one side were forcibly broken.

Xia Yao saw that his eyes were red, knowing that he was on the verge of an outburst, and said softly: "These are what the courtiers have seen in a miscellaneous book, Your Highness is angry, calm down, are we still outside?" ”

Xuanyuan Luo gasped heavily, his chest rose and fell violently, and after half a ring, he barely suppressed the tyranny in his heart.

He knew that Xia Yao didn't need to lie to him, after all, he and Xia Yao said that the ugly thing was that they were grasshoppers on a line, and he didn't do Xia Yao any good when he got down.

What's more—this woman likes him.

And he liked her, too.

As long as he thought about it, Xuanyuan Luo felt a warm current pass through his heart. The whole person has become much more energetic.

"Don't tell me what happened here today, you know?" He cautiously instructed Xia Yao.
