Chapter 743: The Ugly Queen Returns
It was happy and honest, Cang Linchen was expressionless, and he scooped a spoonful of lotus seed soup into his mouth, which was a little sweet, sweet and bitter.
He hadn't noticed it before, but now when he heard Qiu Yue say this, he thought that at that time, Xia Yinhuan would indeed order the imperial dining room to boil lotus seed soup and bring it to him.
Whenever he was tired, he always felt that everything was natural and peaceful, but now without her, even the lotus seed soup has lost its original taste.
"Your Majesty, drink a little more." Qiu Yue still saw him drink a little and put it on the desk, and then smiled sincerely and comforted.
"Don't drink it, you go down." Cang Linchen said lightly, looking at her appearance, he couldn't help but look at her twice, as if he saw Xia Yinhuan by his side, but he didn't.
"The concubine retreated." Qiu Yue was not unhappy at all, she understood, she had to come little by little, she couldn't be in a hurry, he still missed Xia Yinhuan in his heart now, if she broke in strongly, she might be bored by him.
It's better to wait for his feelings for Xia Yinhuan to fade slowly, and she can naturally become the most important person in his heart.
And at this time in Chang'an City, a carriage finally arrived at the city gate after a long journey, Xia Yinhuan covered her face with a silk scarf, and then got out of the carriage.
Ma Fu is a native of southern Xinjiang, he is going back to southern Xinjiang, standing at the gate of Chang'an City, looking at the endless flow of people, watching the people and horses at the gate of the city in and out, she has a lot of feelings in her heart.
The word Chang'an is still covered with moss, how many times she has been in and out of Chang'an, she will always look at Chang'an City for a long time, and return from nine deaths, I don't know if it is a person.
She tightened the burden on her shoulders, and took a deep breath at the moment, since she promised to come back, she had to muster up the courage to face it, but she didn't meet Cang Linchen immediately.
Touching the scar on the left side of her face, she thought, it is better to wait for the wound to fade before going to see Cang Linchen, at least it will not be so obvious at that time, and the mustard in her heart will not be so deep.
Just as she was thinking, she took a step towards the city, and as soon as she reached the city gate, suddenly a horse galloped towards her, followed by a group of officers and soldiers.
Xia Yinhuan stood in the middle of the official road, seeing the horse's hooves but unable to move, looking at the people on horseback, but the feet seemed to have roots, and tears poured out without warning.
"Be careful!" Ye Xinghuan clearly saw a woman in plain white clothes standing in the middle of the official road, thinking that she should be able to dodge, the others all dispersed, who knew that she was still standing in place and motionless before she was near.
As he spoke, he saw the tears in her eyes clearly, so crystalline, a pair of eyes like cutting water, extraordinarily bright.
Xia Yinhuan came back to her senses, it was too late to dodge, the horse's hooves had been raised above her head, she was startled, fell to the ground, fortunately the horse's hooves fell, right in front of her, the person on horseback pulled the reins.
The people around them held their breath, thinking that they were going to be splashed with blood on the spot today, but fortunately, the cliff was closed quickly enough.
"What's the matter with you!" Ye Xinghuan was annoyed, he was going to southern Xinjiang to find Xia Yinhuan's whereabouts, but he didn't expect to meet this woman as soon as he left the capital, if he didn't pull the reins in time, she would definitely become a ghost under the horse's hooves today.
Looking at her thin little body, if she wants to step on the horse for a while, she will definitely break her liver and intestines.
He glared angrily, but the woman just lowered her head and touched her tears, and without speaking, she stood up and patted the dust off her body, standing in front of his horse without any intention of backing down.
Ye Xinghuan's brows furrowed even tighter, he felt that this woman was a little strange and a little familiar, but he didn't have time to think too much about it now, he didn't tell Cang Rinchen that he was going to southern Xinjiang, and this trip must go early and return early.
"Girl, please let me go, this king has important things to do." He deliberately said his identity, thinking that ordinary people would know that he was the prince, and it would be too late to run.
However, the woman slowly walked away instead of scattering, but walked to his side, reached out and tugged at his sleeve, and said in a soft and thick nasal voice: "Yin Huan, even you don't recognize me?" ”
The night walk was stunned violently, and the eyes full of autumn water were like a clear pool, rippling and sparkling.
"Yin Huan!" Without thinking about it, he suddenly jumped off the horse, grabbed her arm, and his voice trembled: "You're not dead, you're not dead!" ”
He didn't dare to imagine that when he decided to go to southern Xinjiang to find her body, she actually appeared in front of him, although she was veiled, but he was sure that Xia Yinhuan was not wrong.
He is too familiar with Xia Yinhuan, unlike Qiu Yue, the familiarity she brings to him is like a part of life, and he doesn't need to prove it too much, he already knows who she is.
"Nope." Xia Yinhuan's tears couldn't stop falling, she was very happy to see Ye Xinghuan now, and she had lost a lot of weight after not seeing Ye Xinghuan for more than a month.
"Yin Huan." Ye Xinghuan didn't say a word, and took her into his arms, he really thought she was dead, and he regretted it for countless days and nights that he couldn't go to southern Xinjiang with her.
But he didn't say anything, he knew that Cang Linchen was even sadder than him, and he knew that the person who was most painful was Cang Linchen and not him, so he tried his best to suppress his sadness, and only hoped that Cang Linchen, whom Xia Yinhuan cherished, could cheer up.
"Wait." Xia Yinhuan was a little overwhelmed by him in his warm embrace, and when she returned, she still thought that she must go to find Ye Xinghuan when she arrived in the capital.
She is now shameless to face Cang Linchen, at least Ye Xinghuan is the most trustworthy person, she wants Ye Xinghuan to help her, in this capital, except for Cang Linchen, Night Xinghuan treats her best.
"What's wrong?" The iron-clad man was pushed away by Xia Yinhuan, his eyes were already a little moist, and his eyes were full of excitement and indescribable emotions intertwined.
"Let's go back to the palace first." Xia Yinhuan waited around for a week, and many people thought that they were already standing aside and whispering, she didn't want the movement here to make a storm in the city, or spread to Cang Rinchen's ears, otherwise her plan would be in vain.
Through the pink veil, Ye Xinghuan faintly saw that something was wrong with her face, but she didn't say anything, just carried her on the horse, turned the horse's head and returned to the capital.
She didn't say that she would go back to the palace, but that she was going to King Lian's mansion, that is, she had something to discuss with him, and Xia Yinhuan's mind was too easy to guess.
He didn't know what happened now, and he really wanted to ask Xia Yinhuan what happened in the more than a month that he was in southern Xinjiang and what happened in the more than a month he was missing.
However, after thinking about it, he still decided to go to the Lian Wangfu to inquire carefully, there were many people, and Xia Yinhuan must have thought so too.
Outside the Lian Wang's Mansion, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu happened to visit, standing outside the Lian Wang's Mansion from a distance watching Ye Xinghuan return on a horse, holding a thin woman in his arms, and he couldn't see clearly under the veil.
He didn't care much, and when Ye Xinghuan's horse stopped at the gate of the palace, he stepped forward and arched his hand to Ye Xinghuan and said, "Lord, Concubine Xiang and Your Majesty get along well today, and the prince can rest assured." ”
Ye Xinghuan hugged Xia Yinhuan and got off the horse when he heard him say this, and immediately turned cold, and then looked at Xia Yinhuan with a shocked look, and quickly explained: "Yin...... It's not what you think, listen to me and so on to explain it to you. ”
He wanted to call her name, but he was afraid that she would not let others know now, so he swallowed it.
"Lord Wang, this is." The Ministry of Rites Shangshu felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, he was obviously here to report the good news, why did he break his face at night, and why did he explain to a woman, what to explain?
Ye Xinghuan was angry at the moment, glared at the Ministry of Rites Shangshu and scolded: "This king knows, you can do whatever you have to do, and you are not allowed to come to Lian Wangfu in the future!" ”
He didn't expect that the Ministry of Rites Shangshu would be so open-mouthed, and he would actually discuss the matter of Concubine Xiang with him in public, and it was too obvious that he wanted to invite credit.
The key is that when Xia Yinhuan was there, it was his idea to find someone who looked similar and send him to Cang Rinchen, and that was to think that Xia Yinhuan was no longer alive so he came up with such a solution.
Who would have expected that Xia Yinhuan would suddenly appear in front of him after more than a month.
"Lord Wang......" Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites was stunned, he didn't remember what he said wrongly, how could he be so angry, Concubine Xiang and Cang Rinchen got along well, isn't it something that should be happy at night?
"If you get out, you'll get out!" Ye Xinghuan ran out of patience and said anything else to him, so he pulled Xia Yinhuan, who was stunned, and walked to the palace, already feeling uneasy.
He was so happy to meet Xia Yinhuan that he forgot a stupid thing he had done, and actually asked someone to hold her hand if he tried to take her place, his palms were already dripping with cold sweat, and he hadn't been able to figure out how to explain all this to Xia Yinhuan.
The Ministry of Rites is a little inexplicable, and it is rumored in the palace that Ye Xinghuan is not interested in women, because he has never been able to have a woman in love, and this is the first time that the Ministry of Rites has seen him holding a woman's hand, and his expression is so hurried.
"Who's that woman?" The Ministry of Rites Shangshu frowned and wondered, Ye Xinghuan suddenly spoke ill of each other, and he still couldn't understand what was going on.
After talking to himself, he thought hard, and then slowly left the Lian Wangfu, and the two questions had been hovering in his mind and could not come to a result.
"Let it go." Entering the Lian Wang's Mansion, Xia Yinhuan came over from Qingming, shook off Ye Xinghuan's hand violently, looked at Ye Xinghuan in a daze and asked, "What Xiang Concubine, Cang Rinchen, did she seal the concubine when I was away, who is Concubine Xiang?" ”
She has never cared so much about Concubine Cang Rinchen, in fact, what she cares about is that she has been missing for more than a month, and he has actually found a new love, how does this make her accept, she still thinks that Cang Rinchen will be consistent with her, and she is dead!
"No, Yin Huan." Ye Xinghuan was distressed, and waved his hand again and again to explain: "Concubine Xiang is what I am looking for, and it has nothing to do with Your Majesty, and she has only recently been named a concubine, Your Majesty has always missed you so much that she has abandoned government affairs, so I whimsically found a woman similar to you and sent it to Your Majesty." ”
Facing Xia Yinhuan, he couldn't tell a lie that deceived her, and he felt guilty in his heart, even if he thought that Xia Yinhuan was no longer alive, he was still full of guilt, and now that she was standing in front of her, she felt even more indebted.
"What?" Xia Yinhuan couldn't react a little, "What do you mean by finding a woman similar to me and giving it to Cang Rinchen." ”
Didn't she become a concubine at the right time, she thought that those talented women in the palace who were at the end of the rank were favored by the dust, and it turned out to be arranged by Night Xinghuan?
In other words, in the palace, there is still a woman with a similar face to her?
"I'm sorry." Ye Xinghuan lowered his head, frustration hit, the moment he met Xia Yinhuan, he already knew that his recklessness had deeply hurt Xia Yinhuan.
