[Chapter 6, Volume 6]

Section 229 Chapter 229 The Princess

I have to say that in some aspects, Huo Kai is better than Huo Bao. Since leaving Huaifeng Mansion, Huo Kai has become much more serious and has spoken less. Even when Green Cloud was looking for trouble several times, he didn't pay too much attention to it, and he was even more sophisticated. Lu Xiang'er didn't encounter any twists and turns, and quickly came to Huaifeng Mansion.

Looking at the high city wall of Huaifeng Mansion from afar, Lu Xiang'er suddenly put aside her thoughts about Huo Qingsong, and the joy of seeing Chaoxia again surged in her heart. Counting up, Lu Xiang'er has been away from Jingshi for almost half a year, and I don't know what Chaoxia, who has just become the princess, has become now. In the past, Chaoxia and Lu Xianger were just sisters, but now the two are related by blood. Although this relationship can't be talked about to outsiders, Lu Xianger and Chaoxia still know it.

"Lady, didn't Lang Jun say that he had already sent someone to deliver the letter, why didn't anyone answer it?" Lu Yun looked at the city gate from another window for a long time before lowering the curtain and asking Lu Xiang'er.

Lu Xiang'er felt that there was a lot of dust outside, so she also lowered the curtain and said, "Maybe the princess has something to delay." Anyway, we have all arrived at Huaifeng Mansion, and the palace is not impossible to find. ”

said that she didn't care, but Lu Xiang'er was also reminded by Lu Yun, and she was a little worried about whether something had happened to Chaoxia. Although Huo Qingsong never said it, Lu Xiang'er overheard his conversation with Huo Bao and knew that Huaifeng Mansion was a little unpeaceful some time ago. Even when King Duan first arrived in Huaifeng, he was attacked several times. If it weren't for the alertness of the guards around him, Duanwang might not have been so simple as a slight injury.

This is also the purpose of Lu Xiang'er insisting on coming to Huaifeng Mansion to see Chaoxia, she is a little uneasy if she doesn't see Chaoxia unharmed with her own eyes. Seeing the calm at the gate of the mansion, Lu Xiang'er was really a little apprehensive in her heart. After being inspected by the guards at the city gate, Lu Xiang'er and his party entered the city. Feeling the tight inside and loose state of Huaifeng Mansion, Lu Xiang'er was even more worried, and urged Huo Kai to go directly to Duanwang's Mansion.

But before Lu Xiang'er's carriage could go far, several fast horses came quickly in the distance. Huo Kai looked at the speed of those horses, and he understood that those people were coming for them. Because he didn't know who was coming, Huo Kai immediately raised his horse, let the carriage stop and lean aside, as if he wanted to make way for those people.

Sure enough, when the horses approached Lu Xiang'er's carriage, their speed slowed down, and finally stopped in front of Huo Kai. Lu Xiang'er also heard the sound of horses' hooves outside, so she asked calmly, "Huo Kai, but what happened?" ”

Without waiting for Huo Kai to answer, one of the people who came on horseback hugged his fist to the carriage and said, "Chen Lin visited Mrs. Huo, and the princess specially ordered Chen Lin to welcome Mrs. to the ......palace."

"Chen Lin?" Lu Xiang'er suddenly remembered that when King Duan was still the prince, there was a guard named Chen Lin by his side. In order to be sure, Lu Xiang'er motioned to Lu Yun to open the curtain through a gap. Seeing Chen Lin's appearance, Lu Xiang'er relieved her mind and said softly: "Then trouble Chen Guards to lead the way." ”

"Yes." Chen Lin hugged Huo Kai with a fist, then turned over and rode on his horse to lead the way with Huo Kai. From Chen Lin's every move, Huo Kai could see that his martial arts were good. However, Huo Kai didn't know what kind of person Chen Lin was, so he didn't take the initiative to speak. However, Chen Lin took the initiative to ask Huo Bao, which made Huo Kai slightly stunned, and talked to Chen Lin carefully.

Chen Lin came to greet Lu Xiang'er and didn't say anything, but Lu Xiang'er's heart was a lot calmer. If something happened to Chaoxia, it would be impossible for Chen Lin to greet her. Chen Lin is the most trusted and inseparable guard of King Duan. When he came to the city gate, it proved that King Duan and the princess were fine, and Lu Xiang'er's heart that she had mentioned before was of course put down.

Lu Xiang'er, who was in a much better mood, also had other thoughts, and looked at the street market in Huaifeng Mansion through the curtain on the car window. The last time she passed through Huaifeng Mansion, Lu Xiang'er was in a hurry to go to Dengzhou, so she just took a little rest for one night and set off, and she didn't take a closer look at the largest state capital in the north.

Looking at the scenery of Huaifeng Mansion, Lu Xianger drove for about half an hour and came to Duanwang's Mansion. With the support of Lu Yun and Lu Zhi, Lu Xiang'er got out of the carriage with a sour body and stood at the door of a tall and majestic mansion.

I don't know how Chen Lin informed the people in the palace, anyway, Lu Xiang'er just got off the carriage when the gate of the palace opened. With the attendants and palace maids who came out, a graceful woman in gorgeous costumes, slowly walked out. She looked straight at Lu Xiang'er with a little tears in her eyes. Probably because she was afraid of something, her mouth opened slightly, but she didn't say anything.

Lu Xiang'er looked at the approaching Chaoxia and was slightly taken aback, and regained some clarity. Under the gaze of everyone, she bent down slightly, and said softly: "The people woman meet the princess—"

"Xiang'er, if you give so many courtesies, I'm going to be angry." Chaoxia walked to Lu Xiang'er's side in a few steps, took Lu Xiang'er's hand, and pulled her up. Glancing at Lu Xiang'er, Chaoxia said softly in her mouth, but the excitement in her eyes became more and more obvious.

Lu Xiang'er glanced at Chaoxia's belly and bulged slightly, lowered her head and smiled: "Sister Chaoxia, you want to surprise Xiang'er." ”

"You little girl, this is the gate of the palace, don't be open-mouthed. Something to go in and say. Chaoxia's face was still a generous and decent smile, but a few words came out of her mouth briskly: "If it weren't for this stomach, I would have picked you up in person." ”

"Why didn't you say it in the letter, I didn't see you just now, and my heart was lifted." Lu Xiang'er also kept her smile unchanged, and slowly walked into the palace with Chaoxia. Lu Yun and Lu Zhi, who walked behind the two, and Chaoxia's two maids, although they all lowered their heads. But the expressions of the four of them were very exciting, and they were afraid of being seen by others, so their heads were about to hang down to their chests.

These people came to Chaoxia and Lu Xianger respectively after Chaoxia got married, so naturally they didn't know much about their previous relationship. Therefore, I was surprised to hear that Lu Xiang'er and Chaoxia were silent on the surface, but in private, they were laughing at each other like ordinary sisters.

After entering the palace, Huo Kai and the others naturally followed Chen Lin to rest. And Lu Xianger was directly introduced into the back house by Chaoxia, a courtyard with very elegant decorations. Without a large group of people behind her, Lu Xiang'er suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and Chaoxia changed back to the Chaoxia she used to be.

Holding her stomach lightly with one hand and pulling Lu Xiang'er on the other, Chaoxia's eyes were filled with a smile: "Even if I look forward to you, I am about to suffocate to death in this palace." ”

"With King Duan accompanying you, what are you so bored." Between Lu Xianger and Chaoxia, it has always been straightforward. Now that everyone has become a parent, Lu Xianger seems to be more open. Chaoxia was still a little shy, and couldn't help but glance at Lu Xiang'er, and asked the maid next to her to pour tea for Lu Xiang'er.

Looking at the outside of the courtyard, Chaoxia did not hide her contemptuous eyes at all, and said calmly: "Those people are all the hearts of Concubine Xiang and Concubine Song, how can I be lazy." ”

"Concubine Xiang is really idle now." Lu Xiang'er took a sip of tea, paused slightly, then rolled her eyelids and understood what Chaoxia meant.

Concubine Xiang not only looked at Lu Xiang'er unpleasantly, but also didn't seem to be able to see the morning glow. When Chaoxia left Beijing, he rewarded a bunch of beautiful maids. said that he was distressed that King Duan came to a remote place and specially asked people to serve him and the princess. And although Concubine Song also rewarded a few, it can be seen from her appearance and demeanor that she is just doing superficial work. And Concubine Xiang's intentions can be seen by anyone, so there is no need to say more.

Chaoxia was also angry at the beginning and had a cold face for a few days, but after King Duan's repeated comfort, she slowly stopped caring. Seeing Lu Xiang'er's actions, Chaoxia smiled amusedly, and said in a low voice: "Xiang'er, I understand now." If he is ruthless to you, anyone can snatch him away. But if he really pretends to be you in his heart, and you don't give up on him, no one will want to insert it into it. ”

Lu Xiang'er listened to Chaoxia's sudden words, and turned her head to look at her. At this time, Chaoxia didn't know what she remembered, with a faint smile on her face, which looked very reassuring. And her bulging belly also added a lot of maternal brilliance to Chaoxia, which almost made Lu Xiang'er stunned.

"I heard that Mrs. Huo is here, and this king specially came to take a look. I don't know if Mrs. Huo has brought some interesting gifts to this king? With a clear voice, Duan Wang, dressed in a gorgeous costume, walked into the room. Lu Xiang'er hurriedly restrained her emotions and got up to give a salute.

I don't know if Zhao Chengmin was crowned king or what he experienced. After Lu Xiang'er got up and sat down, she found that he seemed to be much more mature, not at all different from the demonic-looking prince of Jingshi. may be in order to let his appearance occupy everything, Zhao Chengmin actually grew a beard. However, such a handsome person with a short beard is really interesting in Lu Xiang'er's opinion.

may have felt that it was rude for her to suddenly smile, so Lu Xiang'er immediately said, "Go back to the prince." Before coming to Huaifeng Mansion, my family Langjun said. If the prince needs anything, even if he talks about it, he will prepare it for the prince. ”

"Ah, my cousin is really short-sighted." Duan Wang was not at all surprised by Huo Qingsong's rudeness, but laughed and said very habitually: "Cousin is really the same as always, without any performance." Especially for Mrs. Huo. If I hadn't ...... it."

"Lord Wang, you should go and change the dressing, be careful that the wound is open again." Chaoxia coughed and interrupted King Duan's words. Duan Wang immediately thought of something, his eyes flashed with joy, and he quickly got up and said, "If the princess doesn't say it, I forgot it." Since Mrs. Huo is here, let's talk to the princess more, and the king won't bother. ”

"The prince is injured." Lu Xiang'er was guessing what King Duan had not finished speaking, but when she heard Chaoxia speak again, she was shocked and said hurriedly: "You are really attacked?" ”
