Chapter Twenty-Eight: I Don't Know the True Face

In front of the princess's mansion, two octagonal palace lamps were gently swaying in the wind, and Aya and Ling Ji were standing at the foot of the steps waiting for me.

"Princess, let's go back first."

Jiang Zitang stood at the bottom of the stairs and looked at me, I rarely saw his eyebrows stretched, but today I was fortunate to be with him all the way, and I saw him many times, which was much better than when he frowned.

I nodded lightly at Jiang Zitang, and stepped into the mansion, the door was about to close with a creak behind me, and I glanced back, and a touch of white clothes flew into my eyes.

The two Zhu doors are next to each other, I can no longer see anything, I can't say the taste in my heart, I have seen the most in the past is Jiang Zitang's back.

He seems to be very fond of turning his back on me, whether he is standing by the corridor of Taiye Pool reading a book, or occasionally meeting him in the palace, what I see is always Jiang Zitang's back.

Taking a deep breath, I stopped thinking about those old things, turned my head to Aya and asked, "Aya, has the imperial doctor come to the house today?" ”

"Back to the princess, the imperial doctor came this afternoon, and said that the red girl's injury will heal in half a month."

"That's fine, these days, you ask the cook in the house to get more medicinal soup and send it to Honggu," Finally, remembering the medicinal soup I drank at my sister-in-law's tonight, I added: "Remember to add more sugar, so as not to be bitter and unpalatable." ”

Aya smiled when she heard this: "It's also that the princess is afraid of hardship, and she thinks about adding sugar when she comes back." ”

"Life is already bitter, and it will be more and more uncomfortable to eat something bitter," I sighed and continued, "So, add some sugar and it will be sweet." ”

This is still what Ah Niang said and I heard in the past, when I was a child, I often loved to be sick, but when I was sick and I didn't want to drink the black medicine, Ah Niang would take out a small amount of silver and let my brother exchange some sugar cubes, and put it in my mouth to be sweet and sweet, and it would not be bitter.

Counting the days, it is almost the day of A-Niang's sacrifice, the spring day is about to pass, presumably there will be less rain, if A-Niang sees the sunny day, she will be very happy.

"What people!"

Ling Ji suddenly shouted so frightened that I stopped, only to see a figure shaking under a big tree in front of me, because I couldn't see clearly in the dark.

Ling Ji pulled out the saber at his waist and walked in front of me, and shouted again: "Come out!" ”

"Princess, it's me."

There was a hint of trepidation in the thin voice, and a slender figure emerged from behind the tree, looking at Ling Ji's sword and not daring to step forward.

I was a little surprised, and asked tentatively, "Is it Honggu?" ”

The man nodded, and walked forward cautiously and slowly, I motioned for Ling Ji to take back the sword, but Ling Ji just gave way, and Aya still opened her hands in front of me.

Until the candlelight hanging in front of the gate of the courtyard, the red clothes were clearly visible, and it was really a red girl.

Ling Ji took back his sword and stood beside me, and I stepped forward and asked, "Honggu, why are you here?" But what's wrong with you? ”

Honggu shook her head and replied in a low voice, "I just saw that the princess had not returned, so I thought about waiting for the princess here." ”

"It's not uncomfortable, it's okay to keep you waiting, come and sit in my courtyard, the moonlight is okay today."

Saying that, I reached out to pull Honggu, and I suddenly pulled it like this, Honggu was a little nervous, and I realized that her face didn't look very good.

"Honggu, what's wrong with you? If you feel uncomfortable, tell me, don't hide it. ”

"No, no, didn't the princess say go sit down, let's go."

Honggu pursed her lips and took me to walk into the courtyard with me, maybe she had waited too long and was a little tired.

As soon as he stepped into the gate of the courtyard, Ling Ji's voice came from behind him: "Princess, there is a sachet dropped here." ”

This sachet looks very ordinary, only embroidered a lotus flower, and the embroidery method is not difficult to see rough, Ling Ji took it in his hand and threw it twice, which was very light.

Aya leaned over and looked at it twice, frowned, and said, "This is not a princess's thing." ”

Hearing Aya say this, Ling Ji wanted to open the sachet to take a look, but Honggu suddenly shouted beside me: "Don't! ”

Ling Ji looked at Honggu, her eyes were full of doubts, and she was a little serious.

Honggu also realized that she was too rude, and bit her lip and said softly: "This is, this is a gift given to me by my father-in-law before his death, and what is placed in it is his relics......"

Seeing that Ling Ji still had no intention of returning, Honggu turned her head to look at me, her eyes glistening with tears.

The moonlight was faint, I glanced at the sachet and said, "Ling Ji, give it back to the red girl, such an important thing, others don't have to move." ”

"Yes, Princess."
