He was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, and smiled a little stupidly:

"The prince said that he should come over earlier, don't ask the princess to wait for a long time."

Su Ziyao nodded thoughtfully: "What about the second emperor brother?" Where is he now? ”

Lu Shaoxuan: "The emperor left for Wuya, and the prince just entered the palace to preside over the overall situation." ”

Sure enough, even if some plots had accidents because of her, the butterfly effect did not make the emperor change his mind.

If you do it again, he will still abandon the people for Wuya.

Let such a person be the emperor, is it the misfortune of Wuya, or the misfortune of the entire Weisha Kingdom?

Su Ziyao nodded: "Then you send me to the palace, this day will not be peaceful anymore." ”

Wuya is gone.

This shows that Mu Jinguo has already come to the city.

Seeing that Su Ziyao was about to leave, Xiaohe immediately followed:

"Princess, are we going back to the palace?"

"The slave and maid go and pack up your belongings, and come at once."

She wiped the corners of her clothes and hurriedly prepared to go back, but was pulled by Su Ziyao.

She bent and smiled softly: "No need, Xiaohe, this time, you don't have to follow me into the palace." ”

"You're here, when I get back."

"I've worked hard for you for so many years."

She worked hard to take care of the original owner without complaint or regret.

It's also hard for her to be by her side for so many days and suffer.

Xiaohe was stunned: "Princess......"

In fact, since this morning, she felt that Su Ziyao was weird.

After seeing Lu Shaoxuan, the uneasiness in her heart became even stronger.

Unexpectedly, this uneasiness is really not groundless.

But the princess doesn't want her anymore.

Su Ziyao: "I'll be back soon, so I don't have to pack too many things." ”

Xiaohe lowered her head, tears flowing.

Since she can remember, she has been by Su Ziyao's side and has never left.

Suddenly they were about to separate, and she only felt a wave of uneasiness.

"Princess ......"

Seeing her so reluctant, Su Ziyao also had a sour nose, she raised her hand and touched Xiaohe's head:

"Well, these days when I'm away, take good care of yourself, do you hear?"

It was clearly just a simple instruction, but Xiaohe heard the meaning of parting.

It's like ...... Never come back again.

Xiaohe's almost reflexive backhand grabbed Su Ziyao's hand:

"Princess, how long will it take for you to come back?"

"Or the slave maid should accompany the princess into the palace together, so that the slave and maid can take care of the princess."

"The princess has been taken care of by the slave since she was a child, and the princess will not get used to it without the slave and maid."

Su Ziyao: "No need, I will take care of myself." ”

"Obedient, go back."

Here, she can live.

Xiaohe shook her head fiercely: "No, the slave maid wants to follow the princess." ”

Su Ziyao: "Go back, this is an order." ”

Xiaohe froze in place, taking advantage of this gap, Su Ziyao turned around and got into the carriage.

"Get up!"

Xiaohe came back to his senses and followed behind the sedan chair for a long time like a puppy, and finally fell to the ground and never got up again.

……

Lu Shaoxuan directly sent Su Ziyao back to Hanlian Courtyard.

The palace was still the same palace, and although it could be seen to be cleaned, it looked extremely desolate.

Maybe it's because of the lack of popularity.

"Someone, go find a few maidservants and eunuchs to come and serve the princess." Lu Shaoxuan called.

"Yes."

Su Ziyao glanced at Lu Shaoxuan with some surprise, and he didn't know when he started, and he began to speak with an inexplicable deterrent.

But it didn't seem like a sudden deterrent, but it seemed to be something he had before.

took away the edge, but did not die well, no wonder the original owner's wish will help him to take the position.

"No need, I just saw that there are still a few maidservants and eunuchs guarding the door, so let them continue to guard here."

"I like to be quiet, I don't like to be too noisy."

Su Ziyao said softly.

Lu Shaoxuan turned around and saw Su Ziyao, and instantly lost his lustful appearance:

"Princess, I'm afraid they won't take care of ......

Su Ziyao smiled: "It's okay, it's enough." ”

Anyway, she won't be able to live in this Hanlian Courtyard for long.

Lu Shaoxuan was almost obedient to Su Ziyao, so seeing that Su Ziyao was so resistant, he didn't insist too much on arranging palace maids and eunuchs for Su Ziyao's palace.

Instead, he summoned the people guarding the door and cleaned the courtyard again.

Su Ziyao was afraid of the cold, so as soon as she entered the house, she lit the stove, while she curled up and sat on the edge of the stove wrapped in a fox fur.

Lu Shaoxuan also followed her and sat on the edge of the stove together.

"This weather, it's really dry and cold...... Su Ziyao said with a breath of heat.

Lu Shaoxuan looked up at her, and saw that her face was smoked red, like a red flower, imprinted on her white and tender face, which was really good-looking.

His heart beat violently, and then his face turned red, and he lowered his head:

"Well, yes...... Dry and cold ......"

"Ding~ Lu Shaoxuan's favorability has increased by 10%, and the current favorability is 68%, please continue to work hard ......"

Su Ziyao took a breath of hot air, raised her eyes staring at the stove, and looked out the window.

"Lu Shaoxuan, look, it's snowing......"

With that, she got up and walked out of the door, standing outside the eaves of the porch staring at the snowflakes one by one, her eyes shining with countless lights.

Lu Shaoxuan: "??? ”

Didn't she just say that she was afraid of the cold?

But looking at her childlike happy face, I couldn't help but smile too.

It would be nice to be with her all the time......

In the evening, the second prince finally dealt with a pair of messes and dragged his tired body to Hanlian Courtyard.

The lanterns outside the Hanlian Courtyard were blown out, and the palace maids and guards guarding also let Su Ziyao send her back to rest, and only her room was lit up in the entire Hanlian Courtyard.

Because of this, the lights in the room seem brighter and warmer.

It makes people want to get closer.

Finally, he walked to the eaves of the porch in front of the door, shook off the thick snow on his shoes, changed into a pair of comfortable cotton shoes, and then pushed open the door and walked in.

The room was extremely warm inside, and as soon as I walked in, I felt a rush of heat.

He immediately took off his fox fur, threw it to the eunuch beside him, and walked in.

At that time, Lu Shaoxuan was talking to Su Ziyao about something, he was too far away to hear clearly, but he could see the faint smile on Su Ziyao's face.

Both of them seemed to emit an inexplicable light, and that light surrounded them.

Out of place with others.

How to say it, in them, he can't see much else, only the harmony between the two, the warm harmony.

This kind of harmony has nothing to do with identity, nothing to do with flattery, nothing to do with anything, but when you were in front of my eyes, then in my eyes, there was only you.

Respect you and listen attentively to what you have to say.

At that moment, the heart of the second prince, who had experienced all kinds of conspiracies, seemed to have been hit by something.

Envy, helplessness, pain, and other suffocating pains surged him, making him at a loss.

"Second Emperor Brother? There you are? ”

When Su Ziyao was about to look up with a cup of tea in her backhand, she happened to see the second prince in front of the door, so she smiled:

"It's cold there, it's warm here, Second Emperor Brother, come in, we've been waiting for you for a long time."

The second prince came back to his senses, smiled warmly, and strode over.

Many years later, someone asked him, did he really want to put Su Ziyao to death at that time?

Didn't you think about letting her go?

He couldn't be right.

In fact, he did think about letting her go.

That night, when she sat by the fire, smiled at him in the firelight, and called him Second Imperial Brother.

There was a moment.

He...... In fact, I have relented.

The second prince walked to the chair beside Su Ziyao, sat down a little tiredly, and the whole person seemed to be slumped on the chair.

Tired...... Tired......

He had long known that the emperor had made a mess of the harem and the court, but he didn't know that it was rotten to this extent.

It's just shocking.

"Why is there no one in your dormitory?"

"What about the guards on duty? Where have they gone? ”

The second prince asked after taking a sip of hot tea.

No wonder he always felt a little strange, it turned out to be too quiet.

You know, even if he is no longer favored, he can be regarded as a supporter since he was a child.

Whatever it is, you don't have to do it yourself.

But when I got to Su Ziyao, there was no one.

It's like an empty city, but it's reassuring.

Su Ziyao leaned closer to the stove, took a breath of hot air and said:

"Now that the palace is peaceful, it is useless for too many people to guard it."

"And the weather is so cold, wouldn't it be a big expense if it freezes?"

"So I told them all to go back and rest."

The second prince still felt that something was wrong, but seeing Su Ziyao's peaceful appearance, he didn't say anything more.

Just gave the guards next to him a look, and asked him to summon a few guards to come over and guard secretly.

"Zixi, your heart is just too good."

"Your dormitory is unguarded, what if an assassin comes?" The second prince said softly.

Su Ziyao looked at the beating fire in the stove in a daze:

"No, aren't there a lot of patrolling guards?"

"They're moving around, maybe they're warmer."

The second prince nodded thoughtfully, and then took another sip of tea:

"According to the report from the spies who came back today, the army of Jin Mu Kingdom has camped a hundred meters away."

"Shiya escaped, it should have returned to Jinmu Country, then they should already know that the emperor has left."

"It's hard to say...... The emperor may have been caught by them......"

Su Ziyao shook her head: "No, not so fast." ”

Shiya didn't actually know that Jin Muguo had arrived.

The location where she fled was not aimed at Jin Muguo.

In the original text, in order to make their encounter more bumpy, they were not allowed to meet at this time.

But it took a long time to go around and around before they could meet again.

At that time, the Wei Cha Kingdom had already been pocketed by the Jin Mu Kingdom.

Therefore, it is impossible for Jin Muguo to know that the emperor has fled.
