When Luo Xizheng's originally cool hands warmed up, Luo Liyao gently pushed him: "Brother Zheng, you should go back." ”

Luo Xizheng didn't answer, but he slowly got out of the brocade quilt.

"My father's health is getting worse day by day." Luo Liyao lay down and let Luo Xizheng carefully cover her quilt, "I always feel that a lot of things will happen this year." ”

"Don't overthink it." Luo Xizheng stretched out his hand to cover her delicate eyebrows, "I used to say that you can't use too much heart if you are weak-you have to take care of your body before you have the opportunity to do what you want to do." ”

"Okay." Luo Liyao poked his wide palm that covered his eyes.

Luo Xizheng smiled silently, only feeling that when he looked at her like this, he always hoped that the years would freeze down, and every minute and second of such a quiet time was enjoyed.

He straightened his robe, stepped over the window railing, and disappeared into the night.

Luo Liyao tucked the messy hair on her forehead, then closed her eyes and fell asleep.

This night, Luo Liyao seemed to have had a long, long dream, so she didn't sleep very peacefully.

She dreamed that the people around her left her one by one, her father who was seriously ill and dying, Tang Jue, who married Yanding, and her brother who said goodbye to her...... But she didn't feel lonely, because there were people behind her who were always watching her, like spoiling and gentle, making her feel that the future was promising.

But when she turned around, she saw only a vague figure of a man, and she couldn't really see the man's face—she reached out, wanting to touch the man, trying to look at him hard.

But suddenly there was a strong force that pulled her out of the dream......

Luo Liyao was awakened by a crisp sound of porcelain cracking.

Almost as soon as she heard the voice, she opened her eyes and sat up, gasping for breath unconsciously.

It was a long time before she relented, and it was already dawn, and some glare of daylight was shining through the half-open windows, and everything was calm enough to make her think she was still dreaming.

However, Shi Yuezhen's somewhat surprised voice came from outside the hall: "Really? It's too- it's too exciting! ”

Luo Liyao shook her head, which was a little sore because she was awakened, stepped on her soft shoes and put on her cloak and walked out, and saw Shi Yue really talking to Bang Yue, who was squatting on the ground to pick up the pieces, while fiddling with the medicinal herbs on the table.

Bang Yue quickly picked up the fragments and said, "The slave maid just went to the palace gate to take a sneak peek, and it is indeed true." ”

"What do you say?" Luo Liyao was a little puzzled, rubbing her head that was still a little painful.

"Your Highness is awake." Bang Yue cleaned up the debris and put it aside, and hurriedly came up to help her sit down, "Your Highness, sit down for a while, and the slave will go to prepare the toiletries." ”

Without waiting for Luo Liyao to speak, Bang Yue hurriedly collected the fragments and retreated in a flash.

Seeing this, Shi Yuezhen said with a smile: "Today's army went out, this girl secretly went to the palace gate to see the excitement, this is afraid that you will talk about her." ”

"The Great Army?" Luo Liyao suddenly felt that her head hurt even more, "Have I slept for several days?" ”

"It's not a few days, maybe a dozen hours, and it's time for lunch." Shi Yue really glanced at her, "It is said that today was originally General Meng Hui in command, but His Royal Highness actually broke his hair and asked for war in the early dynasty, and His Majesty also let him go with him - otherwise how can I attract these girls to the palace gate to watch the excitement." ”

"Are you going to the city to defend against Dongyi?" Luo Liyao rubbed her eyebrows, "Why are you in such a hurry to send troops, the third brother has to follow." ”

"You don't know yet?" Shi Yuezhen put down the cleaned herbs in his hand and was a little puzzled.

"How would I know?" Luo Liyao was more puzzled than her, her eyelids jumped fiercely, and she had a faint bad premonition in her heart.

"This time, the Dongyi people are menacing, and the city has been breached." Shi Yuezhen looked at her, and the words he spit out word by word seemed to hit her heart, "The soldiers in the city are almost dead and wounded, and there are still more than 100,000 people who have not escaped when the city is broken. ”

"Ye Tianliu's excerpt obviously arrived the day before yesterday!" Luo Liyao stood up suddenly, and the cloak that was already on her body also slid down, "But it was still ...... yesterday."

"Yesterday we were still holding a banquet in the Qionghua Hall to celebrate Sikong Yong's visit, right?" Shi Yuezhen smiled a little sarcastically, "Probably everyone in power is like this." Everything has a priority in their minds. ”

Luo Liyao: "......"

"I heard that Ning Shangshu's idea again." Shi Yuezhen rolled his eyes at the sky, continued to fiddle with a blue blood grass in his hand, and skillfully arranged its roots, stems and leaves, "What do you say that you should first settle down the monarch of another country before considering sending troops, so as not to be seen by outsiders Tianqi's joke - putting hundreds of thousands of lives behind the so-called face, this is the real joke, and I don't know why Your Majesty trusts this person so much." ”

Luo Liyao: "......"

"Your Highness, the slave and maid will serve you to freshen up and change your clothes." Bang Yue entered the hall with a pair of items, followed by Bang Hua, and the two saw that she was only wearing a thin bedclothes, and hurriedly stepped forward.

"It's General Meng Hui and the third brother who are leading the troops?" Luo Liyao stretched out her arms and let Bang Yue and Bang Hua put on and tidy up their clothes, "What about the face?" ”

"Responsible for guarding the royal city." Shi Yuezhen finally finished sorting out the last blood grass, clapped his hands and stood up, "It is said that he is too busy, and you shouldn't have been able to see him much recently." ”

Shi Yuezhen picked up a bunch of medicinal herbs that had been arranged, and seeing that she was still frowning and puzzled, he reached out and patted her head: "What are you thinking?" Don't you know why the Third Highness is following the expedition? ”

"Guess what." Luo Liyao took a small sip of the tea offered by Bang Yue, "I hope I guessed wrong." ”

Shi Yue walked out of the hall without looking back, and dropped a sentence: "I don't understand, I'm too lazy to care." ”

Luo Liyao chose a sky blue pipa sleeve antique satin skirt, draped in dark tulle, and a rose hairpin was inserted in the cloud sideburns that were pulled up at will, and a pair of shining water jade bells were placed in her ears.

"Sure enough, His Highness looks so good in whatever he wears." Bang Yue looked at her sullen appearance, and hurriedly said some good things to coax her, "Lord Tang left the palace early today, saying that he would be able to come back in the afternoon." ”

"Can you give him the silver ticket?" As if she remembered something, Luo Liyao's eyes lit up.

Speaking of the silver ticket, Bang Yue said distressedly: "According to His Highness's orders, it is naturally given." ”

"I haven't felt distressed yet, so you can't bear it?" Luo Liyao flicked her head, causing Bang Yue to pout and look at her sadly, "I won't let the people of our Canglan Hall have nothing to eat." ”

"Admittedly, it won't-" Bang Yue glanced at Bang Hua, who went to get the book and came in, and took it and put it in front of Luo Liyao, "But does His Highness believe in Lord Tang so much?" That's not a small amount......

"There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need to suspect people." Luo Liyao flipped through it casually, "I believe that Your Royal Highness has a good eye for people." ”

Bang Yue was about to say more, but was pulled by Bang Hua from behind. Bang Yue looked at her suspiciously, Bang Hua shook her head slightly, and her eyes motioned for her to look at the book in Luo Liyao's hand.

Shen Chuxia's famous book "Under Heaven" depicts the customs and folk objects of the barbarians of the five countries and four directions of the world, and also explains the entanglement of grievances between them, and there are also a collection of legends of the hidden clans in various places that have no intention of the world.

Bang Yue was even more puzzled, but was directly pulled out by Bang Hua, leaving Luo Liyao alone to read quietly in the hall.

"What are you pulling me out for?" Bang Yue was a little speechless, "That person has been studying some strange things all day since he came to Canglan Palace, and His Highness still believes in him so much - what if he is a liar?" ”

"Fool." Bang Hua knocked her on the head, "You can easily see that he has been studying strange things all day, His Highness will not know?" Miss Shi will not know? What they all know, do you still talk about? ”

"It's true, it's true that His Highness and Miss Shi should know about it." Bang Yue was not convinced, "Then why is His Highness so relieved to give him such a large sum of silver?" Obviously, you and I can leave the palace at any time! ”

"Didn't Your Highness tell you all just now?" There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need to suspect people'. Bang Hua sighed with hatred, "His Highness believes in his ability, and everyone in the palace knows that we are His Highness's people, and some things are handed over to us to do, but people will target His Highness, so it is better to hand them over to a new face." ”

Although Bang Yue was straightforward and fast-talking, and even a little impulsive, she was not stupid, and she was no longer entangled after thinking about it, and hurriedly went to the small kitchen to watch the palace people make lunch.

Bang Hua smiled and shook his head, but he still didn't tell her the speculations in his heart: since they made a marriage contract with General Meng Shao and learned about His Majesty's illness, their Royal Highness seems to have changed a lot - bringing Tang Haoqi back from outside the palace, and then entrusting him with important tasks, there must be a bigger conspiracy behind this.

......

In Qiushui City, Tianyi Inn on the main street.

Xiao Er greeted the visitor warmly: "The guest officer came to find the Su Gongzi in the upper room today?" ”

"I still owe him a meal, and I'll pay it back." Tang Haoqi smiled heartily and threw a piece of silver directly to him, "Go and tell him to come down to eat, I'm almost hungry!" ”

"Yes, yes, let's go." Xiao Er took the silver with a smile, went upstairs like a breeze under his feet, turned to the corner room, knocked on the door, and said, "Master Su, the guest officer who came the day before yesterday is looking for you again, please go downstairs and eat." ”

There was no response, and Xiao Er was about to knock again, but the door opened directly.

Su Luoran was dressed in white, holding the folding fan of his own question casually in his hand, and raised his eyebrows: "He has a treat?" ”

"yes, I said I owe you a meal." Xiao Er also rarely saw such a generous guest officer, so he was naturally smiling.

"It's smart." Su Luoran walked downstairs and saw Tang Haoqi sitting in the cubicle eating a large table of dishes, so he immediately walked over and sat down with some amusement, "I said I had a good treat, but I didn't wait for me at all." ”

"I'm really hungry." Tang Haoqi lifted the small wine jar on the side, and poured it directly into his mouth without pouring it into the cup, quite a bit of the chivalrous spirit of a hero, "I've been talking with those people for a long time, I'm thirsty and hungry - when this deal becomes bigger, you have to give me a piece of the pie." ”

"It's not my business, and it's useless for you to look for me." Su Luoran snatched the last piece of ribs from his clutches, "At most, you will be allowed to eat and live for nothing." ”

"Wouldn't that be good!" Tang Haoqi took out a pile of paper things from his arms and stuffed them into him, "Take it quickly, take it away, look at it and have a headache!" ”

Su Luoran took it and looked at it one by one, and her face instantly became a little strange: "You...... This? ”

"Huh?" Tang Haoqi continued to bite into the meat, "According to what you said, the most frequent flow of people in Qiushui City is Tianying Street, so I went to buy the glazed building that people like to go to the most." ”

Su Luoran: "......"

Su Luoran was speechless: "I'll let you go to the restaurant with the most customers." ”

Su Luoran held his forehead: "Don't you know what Liulilou is for?" ”

"It's called Liulilou, isn't it a restaurant?" Tang Haoqi wiped off the remaining oil stains on his chin casually, and continued to fly with chopsticks, "I only used less than thirty percent of the silver he gave, and I saved you so much, don't thank me." ”

"Liulilou-" Su Luoran couldn't bear it, "Liulilou is a Fengyue Building!" ”
