Chapter 17: The Love of the Peach Forest (1)
The thin white mist fluttered softly in the verdant mountains like a shawl on the woman's body. Near the foot of the mountain, it is seldom inhabited, and it is extremely clean in all directions, except for the occasional cuckoo call in the woods not far away.
The carriage slowly stopped at the foot of the mountain, and Guo Housheng's voice came from outside the car.
"Your Highness, Niangniang, Dongwu Mountain has arrived."
Xiao Yu leaned lazily on the pillow on the side, and never opened his eyes when he heard Guo Housheng's words, as if he was still in a deep sleep.
Dongwu Mountain? How did you get here? Compared with Xiao Yu's light and light wind, Du Yunjin was full of puzzlement. Although Xiao Yu had said that she would go out to recuperate when she returned that day, she thought that even if this was the case, the place to recuperate was probably just a house on the outskirts of the imperial capital, and she never thought that it would be a secluded place like Dongwu Mountain.
"Your Highness, the carriage is no longer passable in front, please also ask Your Highness and Niangniang to change to a sedan chair to go up the mountain."
Guo Housheng said this, Xiao Yu half-squinted his eyes, glanced at Du Yunjin and slowly got up.
"Ah Yu ......"
Although Dongwu Mountain is not far from the imperial capital, it is located in a remote place, and the mountain is high and the road is steep, if someone moves any crooked thoughts at this time, it is difficult to save his life and return to Beijing for help, or it is difficult to return in time if there is any change in Beijing.
As if seeing through Du Yunjin's worries, Xiao Yu smiled lightly, gently took her hand, and softly comforted: "It's okay." This place was originally a royal hunting ground and was heavily guarded. The mountain is pure, which is suitable for the main hall to recuperate, and the father's intention is also excellent. ”
It was the idea of the present...... Du Yunjin's brows furrowed even tighter, and the worry in her eyes did not dissipate, but became more acute.
"How are you so cute!" Xiao Yu couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw her reaction, and he pinched the tip of her nose and held her hand tighter.
The two got off the car one after the other, and there were already two blue sedan chairs waiting next to the carriage, which was as unassuming as the outing of ordinary rich and noble families.
Yan Hui stepped forward to help Du Yunjin get on the sedan chair, and as soon as the sedan curtain was lowered, she saw that Ruyu also stepped forward to help Xiao Yu get on the sedan chair. Xiao Yu didn't refuse, and there was no fluctuation on his face, but the sedan chair that Ruyu had been following Xiao Yu was waiting for. In this way, Ruyu's idea really hit the prince.
Yan Hui's face darkened a lot because of this, and he was silent along the way, secretly thinking about how to get rid of this restless Ruyu quietly.
Her thoughts did not let Du Yunjin know, and Du Yunjin's heart was also uneasy at this time. What does Imasami think, is he ready to abolish the crown prince through this? And what kind of brains will Concubine Qing and King Qing use in secret? And the little Chen of the Qiwu Palace, what kind of attitude will she have in this incident?
Xiao Yu was not in a hurry, but Du Yunjin was very anxious.
The sedan chair walked slowly along the rugged mountain road, and it took about half a day to reach the top of the mountain. If you ride on horseback, it's only an hour or two!
"Mother, please come here."
Guo Housheng glanced at Ruyu, who was accompanying Xiao Yu, and rushed to Du Yunjin with a smile and said, "This is a resting place for hunting, and it is simple to repair, please forgive me." ”
That's what he said, but where would there be a simple way to repair in a royal place. A resting place like this is also full of pavilions and pavilions. However, Du Yunjin liked it at first sight, and the houses here are all made of bamboo, and there is a cloud bone in it.
