Chapter Eighty-Nine: Slowly Returning

"Who dares to coax and deceive our prince?" This bright and beautiful voice suddenly came, and the two men looked back, only to see that it was the crown princess who led Yao Duran here.

Qiao Fengyi looked at Yao Duran and couldn't take his eyes off it anymore.

Huo Jingcheng threw the chess pieces in his hand and smiled at the crown princess: "Is this hall wrong?" You women coax men with one mouth. Wasn't this how you tricked this temple? ”

The crown princess smiled, glanced at him with disgust, and said, "According to this, His Royal Highness is too easy to deceive, so many women have been deceived." ”

Huo Jingcheng smiled: "That's it, I won't quarrel with you, I know I can't say it." By the way, the crown princess, Lord Qiao is worried about his wife, if you two have fun in the past half month, let Mrs. Qiao go back. ”

The crown princess said: "This is not good! The concubine really likes Mrs. Qiao, and she wants to stay for a few more days. After that, she said to Qiao Fengzhi: "Lord Qiao, this concubine is really sorry, all because there are very few friends in this concubine's boudoir, and she and Mrs. Qiao hit it off at first sight and have similar interests, so I hope that Lord Qiao will look at the thin face of this concubine and let Mrs. Qiao stay with her for a few more days." ”

Qiao Fengzhi came back to his senses and said: "Niangniang's words are serious, Niangniang likes the blessing of insiders, as long as Niangniang doesn't bother, let her stay with her." ”

"Thank you, Lord Joe, for cutting your love." The crown princess happily took Yao Duran's hand, and Yao Duran smiled back at her, saying in her heart that the tacit understanding between the two of them was really incomparable.

Huo Jingcheng got up and said, "If you don't let people go, it's okay, don't you avoid the main hall and let them talk to each other?" ”

"That's what Your Highness said." The crown princess followed with a smile, and the two drifted apart.

Now that they can finally be alone, the two looked at each other, Qiao Fengzhi came to her in front of her in a few steps and hugged her tightly into his arms, sniffed the fragrance in her hair, and asked, "Ran'er, are you okay?" ”

Yao Duran was bitter and helpless, but she couldn't tell him, so she could only force a smile: "Husband, I'm very good, the crown princess is warm and hospitable, and she changes her ways to relieve boredom and have fun with me every day, and my mood is already much better." ”

Qiao Fengzhi saw that she was really happy, and he was also relieved, and said, "You, don't you want to be a husband?" As a husband, I always think about you. ”

Yao Duran raised his hand and gently stroked his clear and handsome eyebrows, and said gently: "Of course I miss my husband." It's just that there are more people who miss their husbands. To be honest, did His Royal Highness the Half Moon King go to the house to pester you? ”

Qiao Fengzhi was speechless by her question, because what she asked was too accurate. He smiled and scratched her nose: "I wonder if you are not in the East Palace, but sneaking on the roof of your house all day to spy on me." ”

Yao Duran laughed all of a sudden, and after laughing, he said, "Why don't you say it soon?" ”

Qiao Fengzhi: "Yes, Madame guessed exactly right. However, the king of Nayou pestered me for a day, and then I went to live in Xiangguo's mansion and never saw him again. Satisfied, right? ”

Yao Duran smiled and nodded: "Husband is so good." Husband, wait for me for a few more days, when I go back, I want to eat the Yangchun noodles you made, and we have to drink in the courtyard with Fuquan and Lu Yan, by the way, I still really want to be Mrs. Xiahou of the right door. ”

Qiao Fengzhi stretched his eyebrows when he heard this, and said with doting in his eyes: "Okay, I will accompany you for whatever you want to do, as long as you are here, everything is fine." ”

Yao Duran smiled and pressed her head to his chest.

……

In the blink of an eye, another five days passed. The traces on Yao Duran's back completely faded, and the white and smooth back was like a fine jade, transparent and flawless. Because of this, he finally left the East Palace.

As soon as he walked out of the gate of the East Palace, Yao Duran smiled and took a breath: "Lu Yan, how can I have a feeling of being out of prison?" ”

Lu Yan smiled and looked at the lively street: "Madam, the slave maid also feels like this, it's good to come out now." By the way, madam, the slave maid wants to eat the brine of the Niu family, let's buy some by the way. Also, Fu Quan loves to drink the apricot blossom wine of Jixiang Liquor Shop, so let's also give him two catties to go back. Today, the slave and maid are treated, and the lady is not polite. ”

Yao Duran was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Then I'm welcome?" Well...... What about me, in addition to eating, I also want to weave the cloud brocade of Qingbu Zhuang to make dresses, by the way, there is also the newly opened treasure Zhai, I heard that the pearl hairpin and hosta inside are not ordinary, since you have a treat, let me pick one. Uh, and ......"

"Madame!" Lu Yan interrupted her angrily, and said with a look of grievance: "Madam, you can't spend all your own money, and you still want to play slaves like this, you might as well eat my flesh and drink my blood." ”

"Giggle......" Yao Duran pinched her face, and the two laughed together, talking and laughing as they walked through the streets. In the end, the master and servant went back with a bunch of large bags and small bags.

Fuquan was alone in the yard, lying on a rocking chair basking in the sun, and when he saw them coming back, he immediately overjoyed: "Madam, are you back?" Sit down, the slave will go to Xiangguo's Mansion to call Qiao Gongzi! ”

Yao Duran nodded, and Fuquan went happily.

Qiao Fengzhi came back with a spring breeze on his face, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Yao Duran sitting at the table with Lu Yan eating to his heart's content, this scene suddenly made him feel that the empty home was warm and full.

He smiled as he walked over: "Madame is finally back?" Why didn't I tell my husband in advance, it's good for my husband to use eight sedan chairs to carry you. ”

Fuquan and Midori laughed.

Yao Duran said with a smile while eating osmanthus glutinous rice lotus: "Then I'll go again, stay with the crown princess for a few more days, and then you can carry me again." ”

"Okay, you're going to block me?" Qiao Fengzhi sat beside her and asked, "Have you eaten enough?" ”

Yao Duran took a sip of fragrant tea and nodded. Qiao Fengzhi said with a smile: "Let's go, go into the room, I bought you a white jade bell hairpin for your husband a few days ago, you can see if you like it." ”

Yao Duran was overjoyed when she heard this, and stupidly followed him into the room. As a result, after entering, not to mention the white jade bell hairpin, there was not even a silver hairpin, and he was directly hugged to the bed and ravaged for a while......

After the rain was over, Yao Duran complained: "Liar." ”

Qiao Fengzhi smiled contentedly: "How can you be a liar?" Wouldn't it be nice to buy it for you tomorrow for your husband? ”

Yao Duran was speechless, so she had to look at him with disgust, smile and stop talking.

At dusk, someone from the other side came to the door, and Lord Xiahou and his wife prepared a banquet in the courtyard to invite them and his wife to come over.

This is the first time that Yao Duran has returned to the courtyard, and it is also the first time he has met the former King Xuan and the current Lord Xiahou. He is really as Lu Yan said, he is eight feet tall, he is born with majesty, and he has a breathtaking momentum. However, after a few words at the table, I found that although he gave people a sense of inaccessibility on the surface, he was actually unassuming, and he was very easy-going, just a calm and old-fashioned person.

In addition, Yao Duran also saw the lost son of Xiahou and his wife, who was the same age as Qiao Fengzhi, named Xiahou Jue, born white and elegant, with soft facial features, which made people look very comfortable. Even his temperament is as gentle as jade and friendly with people. He was always alone when he didn't return to his parents, until he returned last year, and for some reason, Xiahou and his wife still didn't marry him a wife, and the three of them came to Nanqian together, but they also lived happily. In addition, the Xiahou couple also had a daughter, who had already left the cabinet and married her husband when she was in North Vietnam, so she stayed in the Northland.

During the banquet, Yao Duran took out a small brocade box and gave it to Mrs. Xiahou, and said with a smile: "Madam, this is what the concubine went in to pick up when she passed by Zhenbao Zhai when she came back today." It is a pair of Hetian jade bracelets, which are very compatible with the lady, and the concubine bought it for the lady. I wanted to send it to you tomorrow, but who knew that it would be a coincidence today, so I brought it to you by the way, do you like it? ”

When Mrs. Xiahou heard this, she was full of surprise and moved: "Twilight, you bought it for me?" ”

Yao Duran nodded: "Yes, madam, a few days ago, during the concubine Xiaoyue, you took care of the cold and warmth, and the concubine was very moved, so thank you Madame for taking care of you." ”

Mrs. Xiahou opened the brocade box and saw a pair of jade bracelets that were crystal clear and flawless, which was a rare beautiful jade. She sighed: "Twilight, this jade bracelet is not ordinary at first glance, it must be worth a lot of money, why do you have to spend so much?" ”

"Don't break the bank, Madame's heart is priceless, besides, Madame is already noble, what good things have not been seen. Come, I'll put it on for you. Yao Duran took out the jade bracelet and carefully put it on her wrist, showing that she was more and more graceful and noble in her gestures.

Xiahou Feng looked at it and smiled faintly: "This jade is very beautiful, Mrs. Qiao has a good eye." ”

Yao Duran said, "Thank you for the compliment." ”

A banquet was harmonious and lively, and several people laughed and talked very harmoniously, until they returned happily late at night.

……

Thousands of miles of night, as thick as splashing ink. In the middle of the night, it suddenly began to rain, accompanied by thunder, and the whole world flickered brightly and darkly.

With a "squeak", the dilapidated and heavy door of the temple was gently pushed open. A weak figure walked in slowly, and finally stopped in front of the bed, like a ghost, staring silently at the sleeping man curled up on the bed. It wasn't until he had enough of staring that he said in a solemn tone: "Jiang Fengjia, I'm here to ask for my life, can you still sleep?" ”

"Boom" was another thunderclap, which woke up the woman curled up on the bed, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she suddenly saw a black shadow standing at the head of the bed, like a ghost, and she was shocked.

A flash of lightning suddenly crossed in the dark night, and the moment it lit up, the white light of the forest illuminated the room, and after the abolition, Jiang Shi saw the person next to the bed with a frightened face, and said in surprise: "It's you?!" ”

The person who came sneered: "Who else can it be if it's not me, the old man?" You think Your Majesty will come to see you? Or will your children come to see you? ”

Jiang came back to his senses after the abolition, and his emotions gradually calmed down, and he was as calm as ever. She sat up slowly, staring straight at her with a pair of cold eyes like knives: "Xu Lanfang, you have locked yourself up for twenty years, and now that I am abolished, you are finally willing to come out?" ”

Lai Rensen smiled coldly, and pulled a scar on the left cheek even more hideous, and the moment of lightning illuminated her full head of white hair, and the whole person was like a Shura ghost, surrounded by thick resentment and hatred. This person is the mother concubine of King You, Xu Guiren, who has avoided the king for 20 years!

Xu Guiren slowly paced on the ground, his voice ethereal like a ghost: "Yes, I came out." Now that the tiger is trapped in a cage, the creatures in the mountains and forests are finally free, and they no longer have to fear falling into the tiger's mouth. ”
