() "Your Majesty, are you here? The little ones have been waiting for you for a long time. ”

When the carriage drove up the mountainside along the mountain road, the sky was already slightly dark, and the owner of the hot spring mountain villa, who had been waiting outside the door with everyone in the villa, did not wait for the carriage to stop, so he greeted him with a smile on his face, "Dinner is ready, but I don't know if it suits your taste, the night is cold, the emperor, come in quickly!" ”

"I'm just bringing Ah Lan to stay for a few days, and I don't want to be too ostentatious, you guys are all business as usual."

"Yes! Be! ”

The little eunuch helped Xia Yuan down from the carriage, and the owner hurriedly followed him, bent his waist and invited him to the villa, and the people in the villa also consciously stood on both sides, waiting for Xia Yuan's arrival.

The carriage behind also stopped at the gate of the villa, and Wen Mu, who was holding the child in his arms, also walked down from the carriage, Xia Yuan stopped with a smile, and gently watched Wen Mu approach his side, and then walked in with her side by side.

After these few actions, the mandarin duck was squeezed behind him.

Just for a moment, she felt as if the world was twisting away from her, and the two of them moved forward with laughter, as if they didn't notice that she had been left behind, Xia Yuan's indifferent back stung her heart.

"Are you wondering why she can take everything from you?" The mandarin duck raised his eyes suddenly, as if he saw the maid with her head bowed on the side showing a demonic and strange smile.

"What are you talking about!"

"Mother...... Mother, I didn't say anything! The maid raised her head in panic, looked left and right, and became even more frightened after making sure that the mandarin duck's fierce eyes were indeed staring at her.

"Mother, what's wrong?" The owner of the farm, who heard the sound, stopped, turned around, and looked at the mandarin duck, who didn't know what was happening.

The mandarin duck blinked again, and there was still the demonic smiling face in front of her, and the one standing in front of her was clearly a maid who was a little frightened by her.

"Sorry to scare you." The mandarin duck took a deep breath, tried to squeeze out a smile on his face, and then walked in the direction of the owner, "It's okay, owner, I couldn't help but make a little joke with her, scared her, let's go." ”

"It's okay, mother, please come in. The emperor and the queen have already entered the back room. The owner's worried brows were also relaxed, for fear that the little maid in his villa would make the mandarin ducks unhappy, and it would be really a big crime.

"Okay." It wasn't until he walked past the owner that the mandarin duck put away the smile that was about to stiffen, and he really couldn't laugh!

The rooms in the hot spring villa are not large, but they are connected one by one, and the layout is as simple as an inn in the imperial city.

The owner of the village originally wanted to arrange another courtyard for the emperor to live in a cleaner place, but he was unexpectedly rejected by Xia Yuan. Maybe it's because he misses the ordinary days when he lived in Taimicro, Xia Yuan didn't want to live in that small courtyard that was almost isolated from the outside world.

"Why arrange another yard? Wouldn't it be nice to stay in one of these rooms? ”

"This ...... It's not that you're not used to it......"

"I think it's very good here, it's lively, and I can be a little sympathetic to the people."

"Yes...... Yes, the small one that prepares the room for you, you ...... You take a break here. The owner wiped his forehead, which was already full of wrinkles, and the emperor really thought of something!

Xia Yuan took Wen Mu to find a relatively remote corner and sat down, and reached out to summon a pot of tea, which slightly relieved the dry mouth of the road when he came.

Just as he was about to talk to Wen, Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the mandarin duck who had been standing outside the door and had not come in with them.

"Ah Duck! Why don't you come? Xia Yuan was holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, he was in an inexplicably good mood, with a slight smile in his voice, and shouted towards the mandarin duck.

"Huh?" The mandarin duck didn't react for a while, and the person who called her name was Xia Yuan, who she had been looking for since the beginning, "Oh! Here it comes! ”

Mandarin Duck finally found the figure of the two in the corner, which is rare, Xia Yuan and Wen Mu will show an expression that is extremely familiar to Mandarin Duck at the same time.

Everything seems to have returned to many years ago, when Wen Mu was still an untainted child by the world, standing stupidly outside the microcosm and waving to his parents. She will never forget that Wen Mu always likes to look at herself with envious eyes at that time, but she still thinks that she hides it well.

"Sister, come and sit here." Wen Mo moved the seat inside, making way for an empty seat to look up at the mandarin duck.

It's just that after the mandarin duck sat down, the two stopped looking at her.

"Ah, are you feeling okay?" Xia Yuan's eyes became more gentle when he looked at Wen Mu again, as if he had been to her before, the only difference was that he was no longer young now.

"Well, I feel that my body is recovering quite well, and I am not so tired after a day in the carriage." Wen Mu stroked Xia Ling's fluffy hair that had fallen asleep again in his arms, "It's Ling'er, I guess I'm tired." ”

"Ling'er has been sleeping in your arms, how tired can she be?" Xia Yuan gently hugged the child in his arms for Wen Mu, "It seems that Chu Gongzi's medicine is indeed quite effective." ”

"After all, Chu Gongzi's medical skills are also among the best, but fortunately, after leaving the palace these days, I finally don't have to drink the medicine that is hard to die for."

"When we go back, you'll still have to drink the medicine."

"But Your Majesty, you see that my body has recovered so well, and there is no need to continue drinking medicine, right?"

"No, Ah Yan, your body has always been very weak, if you don't continue to drink medicine, what should you do if the disease recurs? Do you want me to die in fear? ”

Wen muttered for a moment, "Bah, you're the emperor!" How can you just say the word death? ”

"Hahaha, don't say it, don't say it, you're so cute, how could I die so easily?"

"Your Majesty! You say it again! Wen glared at Xia Yuan with disgust, causing him to laugh even louder.

The position where the mandarin duck was sitting was a little close to the window, and in the open window flew two pairs of birds, they rubbed each other's necks, like these two people in front of them who ignored the eyes of others and loved each other.

The emperor, who looks fearful on weekdays, will only take off all his disguises in front of Wen Muan, like a pair of mandarin ducks playing in the water, which is enviable.

She's just a bystander.

What will happen if Ah Lan is off the medicine? For a moment, such a doubt suddenly flashed in Mandarin Duck's mind.

She clearly remembered that Chu Huai had only told her not long ago that the six poisonous Gu on Wen Lan's body was now suppressed by his medicine, and besides, there was no Wen Lan with Chu Huai in the past few days, so it must be impossible to suppress the toxicity with medicine. If it recurs in the next few days......

So how should Chu Huai continue to fulfill this lie?
