Chapter 161: Stay in the capital
When Zhou Huan opened his eyes again, the capital just ushered in a rainy day that had not been seen for a long time.
Outside the house was the sound of rain, and as soon as Zhou Huan moved his fingers, Yuxi on the side was excited. "Princess, the princess is awake."
"Princess, are you still feeling unwell?" Yuxi asked anxiously.
Zhou Huan hooked his lips and smiled, "You girl, I'm fine." ”
But in the end, because she hadn't spoken for a long time, her voice was hoarse. Because of the dagger in his left hand, I am afraid that he will not be able to carry heavy objects in the future.
But these are not what Zhou Huan is worried about, she is most concerned about Qi Yu, so she ran to Qi Yu as soon as she woke up and ignored her body.
"Ah Yu?"
In the room, Qi Yu was drinking medicine under Chu Xingchen's persecution.
In fact, Qi Yu had just woken up, and under the coercion of Chu Xingchen and Meng Qi, he couldn't leave a step to see Zhou Huan.
Then, Qi Yu lost his temper in place.
"I'll do it." When Zhou Huan saw that Qi Yu didn't drink the medicine, and even knocked over the medicine bowl, he finally decided to come by himself.
Meng Qi and Chu Xingchen retreated in amusement, but Qi Yu still frowned and looked at the person in front of him.
"Qingqing, I don't drink." Qi Yu pushed away the medicine bowl.
Zhou Huan shook his head, but his tone was gentle and doting. "Ah Yu, you can go outside to play after drinking this medicine, okay?"
"Outside?" Qi Yu tilted his head and thought about it.
"Alright then, just a little bit." Qi Yu opened his mouth cautiously, but he passed the medicine bowl in his hand and drank it all in one gulp.
After taking care of Qi Yu to sleep, Zhou Huan dragged his tired body outside the house.
"What about Chu Xingchen?"
Meng Qi said calmly: "I was afraid that the princess would ask, so he asked me to stay." ”
Zhou Huan frowned, but he also understood that this was Chu Xingchen's usual way of doing things, so he gave up. "Your Highness, is he serious again?"
In the past, he was clear in Qi Yu's eyes, but Zhou Huan didn't even see it for a moment.
Perhaps, Qi Yu seems to be a lot more serious?
"Senior brother, don't lie to me." Zhou Huan looked at Meng Qi, "I have the right to know his situation?" ”
Meng Qi sighed, "Indeed." ”
Zhou Huan nodded, stunned for a moment, and then asked Yuxi to help him go back. Before leaving, he told Chu Xingchen, "Take care of Your Highness." ”
On the way back, Yuxi saw that Zhou Huan had been depressed, so he couldn't help but tell Zhou Huan the truth of the matter.
It turns out that the medicine is so important.
Zhou Huan hasn't sorted out her mood yet, and in the face of Qi Yu's protection, she feels uncomfortable in her heart, in the end, she still hasn't protected him well.
I don't know when the two of them actually became this feeling of protecting each other.
Zhou Huan thought that before he had time to react, the emperor suddenly came to the Chu Palace.
The housekeeper took a jade pendant and said that there was an old man at the door who was going to visit, and when Zhou Huan saw the pattern of the jade pendant clearly, he was surprised.
Zhou Huan hurried to the gate of the mansion and saw where the emperor was standing.
The emperor who has changed into regular clothes seems to have lost a little bit of his majesty on weekdays, but has a little more of the appearance of an ordinary father.
"How's the condition?"
At this moment, the emperor was sitting under the gazebo in the garden of the palace, pondering the sunspot in front of him.
"Your Highness...... He's fine. Zhou Huan hesitated for a moment and landed the white piece in his hand on the chessboard.
"Good chess."
The emperor smiled, and then thought deeply for a while, "How are you thinking about the matter of the fiefdom?" Still going? ”
The emperor suddenly put the topic on the table, and then looked at Zhou Huan in front of him with burning eyes.
Zhou Huan was stunned, put down the chess pieces in his hand, and knelt in front of the emperor. "I don't want to."
"Hahaha." The Emperor laughed, "It's a tempered one. ”
Although the matter of Wolong Villa was solved this time, in the final analysis, the victims were Qi Yu and Zhou Huan. Moreover, the emperor's attitude towards Wolong Villa was still too peaceful.
"Are you not satisfied with my handling of Wolong Villa?" The Emperor touched his beard.
Zhou Huan buried his head deeper, "Erchen doesn't dare." ”
In the end, the emperor didn't speak, just lowered his head and continued to look at the chessboard in front of him, and the sunspot in his hand had not fallen for a long time.
After a while, he looked up at Zhou Huan and said, "You say, where should this sunspot of mine fall in?" ”
Zhou Huan stood up from where he was kneeling, looked at the chessboard for a while, and picked up a sunspot to settle down. 7 Q
In this way, the two are evenly matched.
"I know that this time I have wronged you and Lao Qi, since this is the case, then Wolong Villa will be handed over to you in the future."
Zhou Huan didn't speak, she was still thinking about the deep meaning behind the emperor.
She understood that the emperor handed over Wolong Villa to them, more because the emperor needed a place where he could do things for him like Wolong Villa, but she didn't want people to be disobedient.
"Yes, Father." Zhou Huan nodded and sat back in his place to play chess.
For a long time afterward, neither she nor the emperor spoke, just silently looked down at the chess pieces in front of them, and finally the emperor won the victory.
"Father is wise." Zhou Huan smiled.
The emperor smiled and did not speak, and after a while, the emperor's gaze suddenly fell on the garden behind Zhou Huan.
"This is the courtyard when I didn't have a pro-government before, and the seventh mother's favorite is this pavilion."
The Emperor's gaze was leisurely, as if he was looking into the distant past through here.
"Lao Qi's condition is serious again, right?" The emperor suddenly restrained his thoughts and suddenly asked.
At this time, it was Zhou Huan's turn to be stunned. To be honest, in her cognition, the emperor should not know the changes in Qi Yu's condition.
"Father, Your Highness has really not been comfortable for the past two days."
The emperor nodded, but he didn't carefully investigate the question of his conversation with Zhou Huan, his eyes were more nostalgic for the grass and trees here. Maybe it's because people are old that they miss these things a lot.
"Zhou Huan?" Before the emperor left, he suddenly called Zhou Huan's name seriously. "Come here."
"The son is here, father." Zhou Huan responded obediently.
The emperor sighed, "Lao Qi is my son, and your husband should live a good life." ”
"Yes."
In front of the emperor, Zhou Huan is always extraordinarily sensible. Especially in today's situation, she barely showed any other thoughts except nodding her head in agreement.
After leaving, Gonggong Zhou, who was beside the emperor, couldn't help sighing, and hurriedly served the emperor a decoction. "The emperor is not in good health, so let's listen to the imperial doctor in the future."
Gonggong Zhou was an old man who followed the emperor, so he dared to say such a thing.
The emperor nodded, and naturally understood that his body could not be delayed any longer. However, he suddenly thought of something else, and then said to the person beside him.
"You say, is this girl okay?"
After following the emperor for a long time, Gonggong Zhou naturally understood what the emperor was talking about, so he nodded, replied to the emperor and said, "The emperor has good intentions, and one day His Royal Highness's princess will understand." ”
"You minions, flamboyant, will make me happy."
The Emperor waved his hand and did not continue to speak, but leaned back on the soft couch and slept there with his eyes closed.
Father-in-law Zhou also retreated to the side with interest.
has been by his master's side for a long time, but in fact, he knows his master well enough. The emperor started from a prince who was not favored, and worked hard to achieve the position of emperor, and then now the country and the people are safe, and the people of the world have reached such a position. Along the way, it has also paid hardships that ordinary people can't understand.
To this day, he still has to think about the country's 100 years later, and it is indeed hard work that ordinary people can't work hard.
After sending the emperor away, the palace of the king of Chu also fell into a long period of calm again.
Zhou Huan stayed in the room every day to recuperate, and other than that, most of the events were with Qi Yu.
Now Qi Yu's condition seems to be a little bad, and with his serious injuries, he really needs Zhou Huan's care. And the more Zhou Huan took care of Qi Yu, the more he found that Qi Yu was much more serious now than before.
Qi Yu's behavior is becoming more and more like an idiot.
For this reason, Zhou Huan stayed in the palace for a long time, until a guest came to visit again.
The greeting post was still sent by Shan An, and the meaning conveyed was that Yinyue wanted to see Zhou Huan.
Speaking of Yinyue, Zhou Huan remembered that he hadn't seen him for a long time. So this side was naturally going to meet, and in the end, the meeting place was set in Wanfu Building.
It's just that Zhou Huan didn't expect that when he passed by a jewelry store, he unexpectedly met Zhou Meng.
The cries and begs of women were heard in the street, and a crowd of people gathered around caused a lot of commotion.
Yuxi looked like she was joining in the fun, and Zhou Huan had no choice but to nod and follow? When I went there, I accidentally bumped into the scene in front of me.
I don't know who offended Zhou Meng, Zhou Meng, who was wearing a streamer brocade jacket, angrily scolded the other party.
And the reprimanded woman knelt in front of Zhou Meng resignedly, and said sorry words vigorously.
"You cheap girl, do you know how valuable my bracelet is? This was personally rewarded by the people in the palace, even if it was not enough to lose your little life, you actually broke it for me. ”
Zhou Meng's anger didn't come from one place, but the girl in front of her still looked submissive.
Because of his anger, Zhou Meng's fingers poked at the top of the man's head again and again. "How can I have a girl like you, like wood."
"The slave is wrong." The girl was wearing a blue gown, and her hair was already a little messy because of kowtowing and begging for mercy.
However, she looked too thin, and even her voice begging for mercy was a little hoarse.
