Chapter Twenty-Eight: Preparing to Go

Seeing that Chu Xiaoxiang had just come back from outside, Helian Chen suddenly stood up, and at that moment, seeing her walk in, Helian Chen's body looked a little stiff.

Even his breathing slowed down suddenly, and when he walked to Chu Xiaoxiang, Helian Chen suddenly couldn't suppress the emotions in his heart, and grabbed Chu Xiaoxiang's wrist.

"Hey...... You're hurting me! Chu Xiaoxiang subconsciously wanted to withdraw his hand from Helianchen's palm, but at this time, Helianchen suddenly lowered his eyes.

"Yongning, are you back today? How can you say that you are hungry, and you don't come back after eating at the queen's place? ”

Although there was an irrepressible heat in his mood, the words he said made Helian Chen still try his best to stay calm.

Chu Xiaoxiang raised her eyes and stared at Helian Chen, although in an instant, the flames flowing from Helian Chen's eyes were like electricity, which shocked her body.

But Chu Xiaoxiang quickly came back to her senses and knew that Helian Chen's love for her should only be her identity, and she happened to play his wife.

So he shook his hair, and in an instant, he responded to Helian Chen simply: "It's nothing, I just think that the things that the queen has, where is there to enjoy eating at home?" ”

Although she did eat some, she didn't know what to eat after all.

Perhaps it was because the queen's intention to invite guests to dinner was too strong, so it affected the mood of the people who ate.

Although Helian Chen was a little moved, he was silent in the end and didn't say a word, tonight was the last meal he had before leaving Beijing.

Maybe God took pity on him and allowed him to have dinner with Chu Xiaoxiang.

Although they were speechless, Helian Chen felt that his heart was already very satisfied.

At this time, Chu Xiaoxiang felt that Helian Chen was on the side, looking a little lifeless, not at all like him as usual.

She thought, would such Helian Chen have something on her mind?

So, as soon as Chu Xiaoxiang raised his chopsticks, put a small amount of rice in his mouth and began to chew, he asked Helian Chen again: "What's wrong?" Does the prince have something on his mind today? ”

"It's nothing, it's just some official business, and I'm going to leave Beijing soon."

Chu Xiaoxiang just raised his eyebrows, but then he saw Helian Chen say in a cold tone.

Such a tone made Chu Xiaoxiang feel that Helian Chen should just look like he was going to come back soon.

He nodded faintly, "um".

After changing his mouth, Chu Xiaoxiang asked Helian Chen: "It's good, but I don't know how long the prince will be away from Beijing?" ”

"It's hard to say, but it's two or three months at the least. Many ......"

Helian Chen had just spoken, and at this time, although Chu Xiaoxiang was a little surprised, his eyebrows only rose lightly, and he said to Helian Chen, "So long?" ”

Helian Chen sighed lightly and didn't say anything more.

Chu Xiaoxiang confirmed something in his heart, but he didn't say much, but said to Helian Chen: "Then the prince has to take care of himself on the road." ”

As she spoke, she got up and finished the last meal Helian Chen had eaten before leaving Beijing.

At this time, seeing Chu Xiaoxiang's figure getting up, although Helian Chen was a little reluctant in his heart, he didn't open his mouth to save it after all.

With such a parting scene, he really didn't want Chu Xiaoxiang to bother too much about it.

And the reason why he told Chu Xiaoxiang that he needed to leave Beijing was just because he didn't want Chu Xiaoxiang to worry too much about himself after he left; Even bothered by his own farewell.

It's just that Helian Chen didn't know it, although Chu Xiaoxiang was very sad, Helian Chen was about to leave Beijing, but she felt even more in her heart that this was a good time to start doing that.

After dinner, Chu Xiaoxiang turned around and went back to her room, and at this time, as soon as she sat up straight in the room, she sent someone to call the maid Zhuohua.

"What? Tiantai Taoist? When Zhuo Hua heard this name from Chu Xiaoxiang's mouth, his face was obviously surprised.

"Yes, this one may know the cause and truth of my mother's death back then, if you want to know that year, the only way is to find this person."

Chu Xiaoxiang was talking, but at this time, Zhuo Hua suddenly nodded, as if he understood something.

When the county lord said this, Zhuohua seemed to understand. It's just that the rooftop sounds like it's in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, do you really want to go there, county lord? ”

Zhuohua had a question on his face, and at this time, although Chu Xiaoxiang twisted his eyebrows, he said lightly in his mouth: "Well, no matter how hard you put in, you have to find out the person back then." This is the only way out! ”

"In that case, well. Zhuohua is willing to accompany the county lord to go with him, so that there is just a response on the way. ”

Chu Xiaoxiang nodded, but at this time, he heard Tao Yao's voice on the side: "County Lord, you and Zhuohua have left the capital, can you take me with you?" I want to go with me too! ”

"This ......" Zhuohua was suddenly a little embarrassed, she had always been like a sister with Tao Yao, and now Tao Yao said that she wanted to go with her, although Zhuo Hua wanted to agree, but when she looked back at the county lord Chu Xiaoxiang.

At this time, Chu Xiaoxiang shook his head again and again: "Tao Yao, it's not that I am reluctant to take you this time, it's just that this time I am far away, the mountains are far away, I am afraid it will take a long time to come back, in case I meet any evil people or gangsters on the road, when the time comes, I will fight, but I really can't protect you." ”

"Still need to fight?" Tao Yao looked stunned, and then asked Chu Xiaoxiang, "County Lord, you said you need to fight, so your legs?" ”

Chu Xiaoxiang saw Tao Yao and asked, and suddenly stood up from the wheelchair, "It's already a lot better." Believe it or not, I can still ride around! ”

"Really?" Tao Yao continued to ask, but at this time he said to Chu Xiaoxiang, "Then may I ask the county lord, can Tao Yao follow the county lord, although Tao Yao is not as good as Zhuohua's martial arts, but Tao Yao can take care of the county lord's life." ”

"This ......" Although Chu Xiaoxiang was also a little reluctant, but at this time, even Zhuohua began to help Tao Yao speak, "Please ask the county lord you will agree, right?" Your leg injury is just right, and you really need someone to take care of it. ”

Chu Xiaoxiang finally chose to agree, just yawned, and at this time, Zhuohua said to Tao Yao: "Let's go pack our things, so that we can set off at dawn tomorrow." ”

Tao Yao nodded, suddenly remembered something, and said to Chu Xiaoxiang: "County Lord, let's leave like this." Do I need to ask the Lord Regent for advice? If he doesn't see you then, I wonder if he will be worried? ”

"No, he will leave tomorrow too," Chu Xiaoxiang was saying when he saw Tao Yao staring at her incredulously, was this purely a coincidence or a deliberate arrangement?

Why, tomorrow at dawn, the regent and the princess will leave one after another? And on the same day.

"I don't know, where will the regent go?" Tao Yao suddenly asked Chu Xiaoxiang, but at this time, Chu Xiaoxiang curled the corners of his lips and said to Tao Yao, "How do I know this, you go and ask him." ”

"Huh?" Tao Yao's mouth opened even more, looking very unbelievable.

Chu Xiaoxiang responded to Tao Yao, "Ah, what? If you dare to be verbose, I won't take you there! ”

"Okay then," Tao Yao pursed her lips and said, although she felt that the county lord of Chu Xiaoxiang and the regent Helian Chen were married, they were still like strangers.

Unconsciously a little distressed, but Chu Xiaoxiang's personality, she also knew very well, she didn't dare to talk to Chu Xiaoxiang anymore, just turned around with Zhuohua and went out to pack her things.

Also after Tao Yao and Zhuohua left, Chu Xiaoxiang lay on the bed.

Originally, she was already a little accustomed to it, and she and the regent Helian Chen were under the same roof like now, but they lived different lives.

However, tonight I suddenly began to miss him a little, the regent Helian Chen will set off for a long journey tomorrow morning, and he doesn't know where he will go, and how long he will come back.

And she happened to be about to travel far away, although the prince didn't say anything to her, but she didn't ask anything in the end.

After all, in Chu Xiaoxiang's view, the most important one in the "Three Chapters of the Law" is to respect each other and give each other freedom.

Besides, the "Three Chapters of the Law" is also mutual, gritting his teeth, Chu Xiaoxiang, who was lying on the bed, said to himself: "If you don't say it, don't say it, then everyone has its own way." ”

Besides, as long as there is fate, I believe that in the future, they will meet each other.

Chu Xiaoxiang fell asleep with his head in a huff, until the next day, when it was just dawn, Chu Xiaoxiang got up from the bed.

came to Zhuohua and Taoyao's room, and when he just pushed the door open, Chu Xiaoxiang saw Zhuohua and Taoyao, who happened to be lying on the same big bed, and the two little maids were facing each other, sleeping together.

At this time, Chu Xiaoxiang carried the already packed salute on his back, but his hands were on his waist, and he said to Zhuohua and Taoyao: "Get up, it's time to go!" ”

Zhuohua hurriedly turned sideways and got up from the bed, but at this time, Tao Yao was still stretching her waist next to the bed: "However, people still want to sleep a little longer." ”

"Okay. You sleep a few more hours, ride your horse, follow the direction of the moat, go to the embankment outside the outskirts of the city, and continue west, south, and west......"

At this time, Tao Yao listened to Chu Xiaoxiang's words, unconsciously opened her mouth slightly, frowned and said to Chu Xiaoxiang: "County Lord, I listened to your words, how did it seem like I was walking back again, I felt like I was going around in circles." ”

Although Tao Yao pursed the corners of his lips as soon as he finished speaking, at this time, Zhuo Hua suddenly raised his hand and lifted the quilt on Tao Yao's body: "Stupid, if you are a little later, the county lord and I will both ride away." On this outing, we will definitely ride the best horses, travel thousands of miles a day, you are a few hours late, it is difficult to say, will catch up with us. ”

"If you can't catch up, you can only go back the way you came......" Zhuohua was saying, at this time, Tao Yao looked suddenly realized.

However, he nodded again: "It turns out that what the county lord said is so profound. Tao Yao, I'm really convinced! ”

As he was saying this, Tao Yao suddenly lost his sleepiness, so he got up and got dressed, and rode south with Zhuohua and Chu Xiaoxiang.
