On the third day after the birth of the six princes, the whole world celebrated, and Zhao Ling was also out of the prison, of course, there was also a holy decree that he would send an envoy to the Qimu grassland, and what to talk about with Qimu, which could be regarded as a meritorious service.

Jiang Xiaoyu greeted Zhao Ling in front of the prison early, thinking that His Majesty intended to teach Zhao Ling some lessons, but he didn't see him for a few days, but he saw that his bright clothes were dirty, and the corners of his mouth were full of cyan scum, and his hair was messy, but he didn't see any extravagance.

When he saw Jiang Xiaoyu's figure, he stretched out his arms aggrievedly, how pitiful and pitiful that looked.

Jiang Xiaoyu smiled and went up to hug him, patted him on the back, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I know that you have been wronged!" ”

"Not really!" Zhao Ling snorted, "You have to compensate me well!" ”

"Okay, good, it's up to you what you want!" Jiang Xiaoyu said with a smile.

"Don't go back!"

"No backtracking!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "Let's go back quickly, what do you look like standing here, you should also take a bath, your body is all rancid!" ”

"How dare you dislike me!" Zhao Ling knocked on Jiang Xiaoyu's head, "I'm going to smoke you, I'm going to smoke you!" ”

The two talked and laughed and returned to the Chu Palace, Jiang Xiaoyu urged Zhao Ling to take a bath first, and after Haosheng cleaned up, he went to ask the King of Chu to say goodbye, and the father and son talked in the study for a while before coming out. Concubine Liu had already prepared a good meal on the table, after all, it was an unfortunate thing to go to prison, and he had also suffered a lot in the prison these days, so he had to make up for it.

Zhao Yang'er pegged her brother to ask about the things in the prison, and Zhao Ling chose some terrifying things to say, so scared that she only drilled into Jiang Xiaoyu's arms. This meal was also harmonious and warm, and in the eyes of many people, Zhao Ling's entry into the prison was just an experience, and they never saw the crisis hidden behind it.

After eating, Zhao Ling and Jiang Xiaoyu went to the palace again to thank him, met Emperor Zhou, and thanked him for giving Zhao Ling a chance.

Emperor Zhou just raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Xiaoyu and Zhao Ling lightly, and there was a lot less kindness in his eyes when they met before, and said with a smile: "As long as you can do your errand well, I am not guilty of the past, you are still a good son of Da Zhou!" ”

"The minister must live up to his mission and will not disappoint His Majesty!"

"Hmm!" Emperor Zhou also instructed some details about how to talk for Zhao Ling and his wife to listen to, and they asked them to go to the Queen Mother to say goodbye, and the Queen Mother has been worrying a lot about Zhao Ling these days.

After the two knelt down, they immediately went to Fengxi Palace to see the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother held Zhao Ling in her arms in distress, patted him and said: "You stupid child, you are really pampered and arrogant, this holy decree is also something you can disobey?" That's a capital offense! Thanks to Your Majesty's magnanimity, otherwise you will feel good! This time you go to the Qimu Grassland, you can be regarded as guilty and meritorious, but you have to do the errand well, and you must not disappoint Your Majesty, otherwise the imperial grandmother will not be able to control you! ”

"Grandmother Huang, don't worry, even if your grandson is broken, she will get things done!" Zhao Ling said while beating the queen mother's legs.

"Don't talk nonsense, what kind of broken bones, even if things don't work properly, you have to come back to the mourning family completely, do you hear?"

"I know, my grandson will definitely come back safely to greet the imperial grandmother!"

A trace of sorrow appeared on the queen mother's face, and she sighed and said: "When you pass by the Qinke grassland, give my hard-working sister a stick of incense!" ”

"My grandson knows!"

"There's nothing going on here at the mourning family, you couple go back and get ready!" The Queen Mother said, "Remember, the most important thing is to come back safely!" ”

"Yes!"

Out of Fengxi Palace, Jiang Xiaoyu said, "Do you want to go and say a few words to Zixin?" I'm waiting for you right here! ”

"Good!" Zhao Ling thought for a while and said.

Jiang Xiaoyu took a few steps forward and waited for Zhao Ling in a small pavilion, the weather in May was the most beautiful time in the palace, she still remembered the first time she entered the palace, she refused the queen's invitation here, but in two years, there was no queen in this palace.

She remembered the joy of her childhood in this palace, which was peaceful and splendid, and now it was undoubtedly the darkest and most unforgiving place in the world.

It's cold, it's dead and cold, even in May, it doesn't make people feel alive at all.

"I've seen the concubine!" Jiang Xiaoyu saw the figure of Qi Guifei and hurriedly greeted her.

"No need to be polite!" Qi Guifei said with a smile, "This palace is about to go to greet the Queen Mother, it seems that you have just come out of Fengxi Palace?" ”

"Yes, I said hello to the Queen Mother with the Prime Minister!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "Shizi has some things right now, Xiaoyu is waiting for him here!" ”

"The son of the world has suffered!" Qi Guifei said, "Presumably you are also very worried! This trip to the grassland, although the prince came out, but this trip is not very simple, you must be cautious! ”

"Yes!"

"The second prince is in the capital, if there is anything you need help with, just tell him!" Qi Guifei said.

"This is natural, we will!"

There was a look of worry between Concubine Qi's eyebrows, Jiang Xiaoyu also sighed slightly in her heart, Concubine De has two princes under her knees, and there are rumors that this queen's position may be Concubine De's, if Concubine De is the queen, then the fifth prince is the concubine, is there any continuation of this matter of seizing the heir? The outcome is unpredictable, how much danger is there! The five princes have been by Concubine Qi's side for so long, and their brotherly relationship is so good, how can they bear it? How forbearing!

"The concubine doesn't have to worry too much, everything in the world is fixed, and it may not be as bad as imagined!" Jiang Xiaoyu said.

"I've been worried for decades, and I'm tired!" Qi Guifei smiled faintly, "Everything is fate, and this palace doesn't want to worry anymore!" This palace is still going to ask the Queen Mother for peace, so I won't say more to you, remember, you must come back safely! ”

"Yes!" Jiang Xiaoyu lowered his eyes, "I will definitely come back safely, don't worry!" ”

Zhao Ling arrived at the door of Zixin's room, and the palace people said that she was changing the dressing, so he waited outside the door for a while, he recalled the experience of the two of them, and he really couldn't remember that the two had met when they were young, and in the process since then, because Zixin has been doing things that destroy the relationship between him and Xiaoyu, so he has never had a good impression of this girl, only boredom.

This feeling has never dissipated even after she saved herself, he doesn't want to owe people emotional debts, rather than thinking about her for the rest of his life, it is better to hurt himself.

It's just that in this feeling, there is a little more apology, no matter what, he does owe her.

After a while, the palace maid opened the door and invited Zhao Ling in, Zixin was pouring tea in the house, raised his eyes and smiled: "This is a new hairy tip, the Queen Mother rewarded me with some, I heard that you also like this mouthful, how about you taste it?" ”

"Thank you!" Zhao Ling said, he stepped forward and sat down, hesitated for a moment and said, "In two days, Xiaoyu and I will leave the capital to go to the grassland, before leaving, I think there are some things that need to be clarified with you!" ”

"I know what you're trying to say!" Zixin brought the teacup to Zhao Ling, "Needless to say, I understand it in my heart!" ”

"Hmm!" Zhao Ling nodded lightly, "But no matter what, I have to thank you, I heard that when I was in the prison, you knelt in front of the door of the imperial study for a long time, pleading for me!" ”

"I've done a lot of things before that almost hurt you and the princess!" Zixin said, "I have made it clear to the princess and the princess, and we will not owe each other from now on!" I don't have any burden in my heart, I will forget about you in the future and start living again! I'm so good, I'm sure I'll meet a better man than you! ”

"If that's the case, then it's the best, I really bless you!" Zhao Ling said, "If there is something that needs my help, I will definitely do my best!" ”

"Okay, then you can make me a wish!" Zixin said, "I'll find you to finish it one day!" ”

"Good!" Zhao Ling nodded.

Zixin said again: "Okay, let's go!" Do what you have to do, don't worry about me saving you, if you forget about it, it's better! The princess is waiting for you now, you can go to him! ”

"Farewell, take care!"

"You too!"

After Zhao Ling left, the tears on Zixin's face couldn't help but fall.

The palace maid sighed and said, "Girl, why are you also suffering? ”

"Feelings can't be forced, this is the truth I only want to understand now!" Zixin cried and said, "Even if I can marry him, but people's hearts will not be satisfied, his heart is not in my body, I will only spend my life in pain, rather than this, it is better to forget him and give yourself a happy life!" ”

After Zhao Ling and Jiang Xiaoyu converged, they left the palace and went to the Privy Council to discuss some details of the peace talks with the two princes.

"Did you make it clear?" Jiang Xiaoyu asked.

"It's clear!" Zhao Ling nodded and said, "If she can forget me, this is her luck, and it is also my luck!" ”

He glanced at Jiang Xiaoyu and said with a smile: "Our world is too small, the two of us are enough!" ”

He paused and said: "After the matter of the grassland is resolved, I am afraid that the matter of the crown prince will be mentioned, as long as the second child is made the crown prince, let's leave the capital, I want to go to the outside world now!" ”

"Okay!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "There are so many places I want to go, how about we go to Lin Xuan first?" ”

"Yes!" Zhao Ling said with a smile, "If you don't want to stay in Da Zhou, we can also make a boat to go to the Western Ocean, I heard that the people there are blond and blue-eyed, and there are a lot of strange things there, which is very interesting!" ”

"Blonde? There are still such people, then we must meet them! Jiang Xiaoyu said yearningly.
