Chapter 104: Snowy Night
Wu Quangui thought of the gentle, bright, generous and dignified Zhenggong Niangniang in the past, he was also favored by her in the past, and then looked at the current Concubine Zheng who was gentle like water on the surface and vicious behind her back, maybe His Majesty's eyes were really bad.
was in a trance, fortunately the little apprentice beside him pushed him, and he realized that His Majesty had gone far away, and he was busy chasing after him to apologize, Li Ting didn't say anything, and the big stone in his heart fell.
"Today is her birthday."
Wu Quangui lowered his head and was silent, and finally stepped aside, he could see that today's words were not something he could take at all.
Sure enough, Li Ting, who didn't hear the answer, didn't feel half annoyed, and pushed open the heavy palace door.
Wu Quangui quietly raised his eyes and saw that it was covered in silver, after all, it was the queen's bedroom, even if Empress Shen had died, it was impossible to abandon it here, this was waiting for another master. But...... He thought of the woman who coveted the back position several times, and Empress Shen hugged a lot, and she was from the Xian clan, and that Concubine Zheng wanted to replace her, but I am afraid that there is still a long way to go.
Li Ting was about to go in, when a little eunuch ran out of the heavy snow and knelt directly at his feet, "Your Majesty, Concubine Zheng Niangniang suddenly had heart palpitations and fainted in pain, please move to Pujia Palace." ”
Li Ting glanced at him, then flicked his sleeves and went to Pujia Palace, and shouted angrily, "Why don't you go and ask the imperial doctor soon!" ”
Wu Quangui glanced at the little eunuch meaningfully, and immediately followed Li Ting. He didn't have to go to the job of hiring the imperial doctor himself.
……
When Chaolu returned home, Liu Qing immediately greeted her and rubbed her frozen red hands, "Have you found anyone?" ”
Chao Lu glanced at Liu Qing, and sure enough, he really couldn't hide anything from her, "I don't know where he ran to, anyway, such a big person, he won't lose it." ”
Liu Qing smiled, "You care about him very much." ”
Chaolu retorted, "I have a cooperative relationship with him, and I can't really leave him alone, but I still owe him money after all." ”
Liu Qing didn't continue, but just said, "Go take a bath first, the water is already boiling, don't catch a cold." ”
Chaolu sniffed, but she didn't refuse, she was really cold now. In particular, a pair of feet soaked in the snow are now soaked and begin to be numb.
After she finished washing, her whole body was warm, and after her hair was dried, she didn't eat dinner, and planned to go back to her room to rest.
She lay on the bed, listening to the sound of the wind and snow outside, and the candlesticks on the table were skewed by the wind that occasionally ran in through the cracks in the door, making the shadow of the morning dew shorter and longer.
--- "Where have you been?" ”
I suddenly remembered this sentence again. She didn't hear this sentence clearly when she heard it, but now the more she thinks about it, the more suspicious she feels. Why did Gu Yan hug her and say such a sentence? Perhaps, this sentence was not said to her at all.
Chao Lu pillowed his arm, and the more he thought about it, the more irritated he became.
In the small courtyard in Tianxiang Town, although it is a small courtyard, it is also a courtyard with two entrances.
An old servant carried a dim yellow lamp, and the cold wind blew through, and he immediately wrapped his cotton clothes tightly. But he was faintly uneasy in his heart, and he couldn't settle down if he didn't come out to see.
He raised the lamp and looked at the stone pavilion in the center of the courtyard, a figure was faintly visible, he immediately got anxious, who was still sitting alone in the courtyard in the middle of the night, who else could there be besides his stupid master!
He immediately summoned the servants to put the charcoal basin and lit the candles, and the small courtyard was immediately lit up, but the people in the courtyard did not seem to hear such a big movement, and they stared directly at the brocade box on the table.
The old servant walked up to him tremblingly, "Lord Wang, it's late at night, and the wind and snow are heavy, let's go back to the room and sleep early, don't break your body." ”
Although he is old and his eyes are not very good, he still knows the brocade box on the table, and he knows what it contains. If it weren't for an accident, it would have appeared in the palace of the capital thousands of miles away, and appeared on the Qianqiu Festival of the Empress Shen, and the treasures that the prince spent a lot of effort to seek could only be hidden in the loess with the death of the Empress Shen.
He is also the old man of the palace, it can be said that he grew up watching the two little masters, I thought that the two could get married logically in the end, but after all, they couldn't keep up with the changes, Miss Shen married another, and the night king's mansion was destroyed, if he hadn't been lucky enough to return to his hometown, I'm afraid he would have already done dirt now.
Li Yan obviously didn't listen to the old servant's words, he touched the brocade box in front of him for a while, and then slowly opened it, and inside was a white jade lion, in fact, there was nothing peculiar, that is, the lion looked cute and cute, and he knew that she would like it. He got it last year, and he has been waiting for it today, using the official reason of the queen's Qianqiu Christmas to send it to her, to congratulate her on her twenty-third birthday, but there is no chance.
He snapped the brocade box shut, causing the slaves around him to fall to their knees. Li Yan's eyes were deep, and he raised his throat after a moment, "Go back and rest." ”
The old servant was bold, "The master has not rested, where can the slave sleep peacefully?" ”
Li Yan glanced at him and didn't speak again, but finally got up and went back to the room.
When he returned to the room, he remembered that he had disappeared for most of the day today, and he hadn't communicated with Chaolu, although he didn't know how she would talk about it tomorrow, but let's get a good night's sleep today.
On the streets of Tianxiang Town, everyone closed their shops early because of the heavy snowfall, and the streets were silent, only a few houses hung lanterns.
On the street, a carriage was hurrying in the heavy snow, leaving a string of deep rut marks, and the door of the Xu family was opened, and finally their late return master came.
Xu Du got down from the carriage with a thick coat on his body, and a subordinate came forward to make an umbrella for him.
There was also a young man who got out of the car, Han Zhang, Xu Du's closest subordinate, he stepped forward to take the umbrella in the hands of his subordinates, and said to Xu Du: "This snow is big and urgent, wait for the owner to drink a bowl of ginger soup to go to the cold." ”
He, the owner, is weak and has always been afraid of cold, so he still needs to be careful.
Han Zhang wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Xu Du with a gesture, he looked in the direction of his eyes, and saw a little girl wearing a pink fox fur cloak running towards them, and no one behind him could catch up.
He has a few sides to this little girl, the owner's sister is a ghost elf, with her, he doesn't have to worry about the owner not taking his body seriously.
Thinking of this, he smiled, handed the umbrella back to the subordinate on the side, and silently retreated.
"Big brother!" Xu Ruo wanted to step forward, but Xu Du held her head down, and she screamed dissatisfiedly, only to find that her eldest brother's hands were already cold.
Facing the concerned eyes of the little sister, he smiled gently: "Brave the college back, how can you not be cold, don't get too close to me, carefully pass the cold, don't cry when the time comes." ”
Xu Ruo was caught in the death hole, pouted unhappily, and followed Xu Du's steps into the house.
As soon as he entered the house, Xu Ruo said happily: "It's still warm in the house!" ”
"Why don't you go back to your room to rest so late?"
Xu Du was served by his subordinates and cleaned his face and hands with hot water, and as soon as he turned around, he was stuffed with a hand warmer in his hand, and he couldn't be harsh on the smiling cheeks.
"I asked the kitchen to prepare ginger soup, and I've already had someone serve it."
“……”
In the end, Xu Du still poured a belly of ginger soup at Xu Ruo's insistence.
