Although Song Yao was not in a hurry to see someone from the capital, she could give Mrs. Hu face, and she couldn't delay time, so as not to embarrass Mrs. Hu.

Song Yao has a lot of new clothes in her wardrobe, and they are all good materials, so she doesn't have to worry about what to wear.

When changing clothes, the red sleeves raised their eyebrows and said: "Madame is afraid that she is going to leave immediately, so the slave and maid will not go with Madame, so as to arrange the departure so as not to panic." ”

"Well, let's keep it simple." Song Yao nodded and said, "You can add some on the way, and the capital has already sent someone to go first, but there is also a place to stay." ”

"If you have time, the slave and maid should be as prepared as possible. If it is too hasty, the slave and maid will stay first, and then chase after the lady after packing up their things, at most it will be a day and a half of effort, and they can catch up before entering Beijing. After Mrs. entered Beijing, she had to do a little bit of work, and so many jewels in the house were only dusty, so I was afraid that I would not be able to choose a suitable one temporarily, which would make people look down on it. ”

Recombed Song Yao's hair, and the red sleeves said again: "I don't know if I can allow Mrs. to bring an assistant, but the slave maid and Kexin can help, but I am afraid that it will not be in accordance with the rules." ”

Seeing that Red Sleeves had thought so well in such a short period of time, Song Yao chuckled and nodded, agreeing with her words.

Sending Song Yao to the flower hall, Red Sleeves turned around to arrange the trip, and sent someone to inform He Liansheng and the others, so that everyone could prepare together.

Song Yao took Keren to the backyard of the prefect's mansion, because it was Yi's decree, only Mrs. Hu accompanied her to receive the decree.

The content of Yi's decree is very clear, asking Song Yao to rush to the capital before the Dragon Boat Festival to prepare for the Queen Mother's July birthday banquet.

At present, there are only more than 20 days before the Dragon Boat Festival, and it is too late to rush to the capital, but it is impossible to stop on the road.

And after entering Beijing, you have to wait for the queen's call to enter the palace, and you have to arrive two days in advance.

"If you have Lao Gonggong wait one more day, the little girl can prepare what she needs on the road." After Song Yao received Yi's order, when he stepped forward to thank him, he stuffed a bag of silver to the eunuch who passed the decree, and said politely: "Let my father-in-law run a wrongful way, I am tired, please accept this little caution." ”

"Mrs. Song is polite, this is also the responsibility of the miscellaneous family, not hard, not hard." When the eunuch got the benefit, he would give a face, and said kindly: "I heard that Song Niangzi runs a restaurant, and the dishes are quite distinctive, and her cooking skills must be very outstanding, otherwise she can't get the title of kitchen god." ”

"If the father-in-law doesn't dislike it, the little woman will let the father-in-law arrange a private room in the restaurant for the father-in-law to taste one or two." Song Yao will understand that she will not be stingy with a meal of wine and food.

"It's a blessing for the miscellaneous family." The father-in-law cocked his orchid finger and made a gesture of invitation to Song Yao: "The miscellaneous family has just finished passing the decree, so I will go to the guest house to rest for a while, so as not to disturb Mrs. Song's busyness." ”

"Thank you father-in-law for your understanding, the little woman asked the next person to wait here, when will the father-in-law rest, let the next person go to the restaurant first to spread the word, and the father-in-law of the province has been waiting for a long time." Song Yao blessed her body and said: "The little woman retired first, the time is urgent, if there is a place where the greeting is not good, I will ask my father-in-law for guilt on the way." ”

"Go, go, go." The father-in-law waved his hand, very satisfied with Song Yao's words.

The father-in-law went to the restaurant to eat, accompanied by Hu Youwei and the rich gentry who wanted to behave locally, but there was no need for Song Yao and a woman to come forward.

And in addition to Song Yao, there is only Song Yuanbao, a yellow-mouthed child, who is not suitable for drinking, so it saves a lot of trouble.

However, Song Yao still ordered her father-in-law to go to the banquet, and let the restaurant close for a day, and the guests who had already booked a private room or arrived at the restaurant could only apologize and invite someone to come back another day.

I don't know if Song Yao's compensation is generous enough, or if she knows that the characters in the palace are coming, no one is dissatisfied.

Mrs. Hu didn't need to attend the banquet, so she packed some things and came to Song Yao, and she didn't delay Song Yao much, but just wanted Song Yao to bring something to Hu Jiayue.

Counting the days, Hu Jiayue has been married for more than ten days, and how she is doing as a new wife is what Mrs. Hu is most concerned about.

As a good sister, Song Yao would not refuse, and comforted Mrs. Hu for a while, promising that she would take care of Hu Jiayue as much as possible during her time in the capital, and Mrs. Hu left with peace of mind.

As soon as Mrs. Hu left, Song Yao was called out by Helian Sheng.

The two of them took advantage of the clear moonlight and strolled under the corridor, their fingers interlocked but they were speechless for a long time.

In the end, it was Song Yao who broke the silence first, otherwise I am afraid that I would not be able to rest tonight.

"You can't come with me, can you?" Song Yao asked.

"Women, it's not cute to be too smart." Helian Sheng smiled lightly.

"It's not that I'm smart, it's that you have to hide your background, and you can't go with me, maybe the messenger will recognize your identity." Song Yao's tone was very calm, she looked at Helian Sheng, and said with a sly gaze: "It's just that when I enter Beijing this time, your identity may be exposed, are you sure you want to return to Beijing?" ”

"You're in the capital, where can I go?" He Liansheng asked with a chuckle.

"The world is big, and it can't accommodate you?" Song Yao curled the corners of her lips and said, "I don't want to know your identity so early, it's boring to be too deliberate." ”

"I'm afraid it won't be as you wish." He Liansheng laughed helplessly, took Song Yao's hand and sat on the bench, put her slightly cool hand into the palm of her hand, and said in a low voice: "After entering Beijing, everything should be done with caution." Although I won't be by your side for the time being, I will always protect you, and even if you enter the palace, you don't have to worry, someone will take care of you secretly. ”

"You're the prince? Or is it a prince? Song Yao asked sideways.

"Didn't you just say that you don't want to know my identity too soon?" Helian Sheng asked rhetorically.

"I just asked casually, you don't have to answer." Song Yao pursed her lips, scratched Helian Sheng's palm and said, "My safety is entrusted to you, and you are responsible for me." ”

"I'm responsible for myself." Brushing away the broken hair that was blown by the wind in Song Yao's ears, Helian Sheng chuckled: "Maybe this time in Beijing, the day when you and I get married is not far away." Yaoyao, no matter what happens, don't be afraid, I will arrive as soon as possible. You don't have to press your own temperament, just be yourself. ”

"Aren't you afraid that I'll be too angry and accidentally burn down the palace?" Song Yao said jokingly.

"If it's a big deal, rebuild it, and don't burn yourself." Helian Sheng didn't care.

Although Helian Sheng never said his identity, the demeanor with which he said this let Song Yao know that her guess was nine times out of ten.

The only recognized beautiful man in the Great Zhou Kingdom, and he is not afraid of imperial power, is only that one.

When the dynasty made great achievements in war, the Nine Emperor Uncles who could ascend the throne as emperors at any time were also.

At this moment, Song Yao didn't know whether to be glad that she could fall in love with such a powerful man, and she could be presumptuous without any scruples.

It's still time to sigh that no matter how hard you work, you will be the one who climbs high in the eyes of the world after all.

"Lian Sheng, this time I'm going to do something against my will." Song Yao hesitated for a moment and said.

"Tell me about it." He Liansheng asked cooperatively.

"I used to have some scruples, and I didn't want to steal the brainchild of my predecessors all day long. But for your sake, I don't mind setting up the image of a talented woman and plagiarizing the fame of the ancients. Song Yao smiled.

Happiness is earned by oneself, and since God gives him special treatment, why not take advantage of it and strive for the best results?

"As long as you're happy." Helian Sheng still smiled gently, "Even if it's for me, you don't need to force yourself to do anything you don't want to do." ”

"Then I'll think again." Song Yao retracted her thoughts without blushing.

When the time came for the two to chat, Helian Sheng sent Song Yao back to the room to rest.

During this period of time, although they can't see each other every day, Helian Sheng will also accompany him in secret, and he has a way to get along with Song Yao.

"Promise me not to use force." Before Helian Sheng left, Song Yao told him uneasily: "It's only a few months, there is something for the secret guards to carry, and after you really detoxify, you will be a hero." ”

"For you, I won't let myself have anything to do." Holding the back of Song Yao's head, Helian Sheng dropped a gentle kiss on her forehead and said with a smile: "Rest early, so as not to feel uncomfortable when you ride in the car." ”

"Well, you too." Song Yao nodded.

Even if she was reluctant, Song Yao also chose to accept the reality.

He Liansheng didn't leave much nostalgia, otherwise Song Yao wouldn't want to sleep tonight.

As soon as Song Yao lifted the quilt and was about to lie down, she heard Song Yuanbao's confused voice sound.

"Mother, are we really going to Beijing? Isn't the capital very big? Isn't it fun? Mother, can you see the emperor! Song Yuanbao's sleepy eyes never opened, but he still asked a series of questions.

Laughing helplessly, he tucked the quilt for Song Yuanbao, Song Yao lay beside him, and said softly: "Son, if you have anything to say, ask your mother tomorrow, and your mother will answer you well?" ”

"Hmm." Song Yuanbao nodded, "Along the way, I want to sleep with my mother, Yuanbao doesn't want to sleep in the inn room alone." ”

The kidnapping left a shadow in Song Yuanbao's heart.

As long as he goes out and doesn't sleep with Song Yao, he will have nightmares.

Rubbing Song Yuanbao's soft bun head distressedly, Song Yao responded: "Okay, my mother accompanies Yuanbao." ”

After getting the promise, Song Yuanbao fell asleep, hanging on Song Yao like an octopus, and slept very soundly.

Early the next morning, Red Sleeves prepared breakfast with others.

Not only the masters, but also the entourage, had a hot breakfast before setting off.

"Madame has a good journey, and the slave will catch up as soon as possible." Red Sleeve Road.

"You don't have to rush to the road, it's not too late to meet when you get to the capital." After Song Yao finished explaining the red sleeves, she turned to look at Qingshan and said, "You have to take care of the red sleeves, if she suffers any grievances, I will deduct your monthly money." ”

"Yes." Qingshan still feels so cold and cold, but the eyes that look at the red sleeves are a little warmer.

Song Yao didn't notice the change in Qingshan, and shouted at Qinghai, who was talking to Kexin: "Qinghai, isn't the time on this road enough for you to please Kexin?" If you delay any longer, you will swap with Aoyama and stay and go on the road with Red Sleeves. ”

"Don't mind, ma'am." Qinghai hurriedly stepped forward and swore solemnly: "My subordinates promise that they will never forget their duties for personal reasons." I was asking Kexin just now, but I have all the things I have, so as not to cause trouble to my master. ”

"Kexin, is that so?" Song Yao looked at Ke Xin with a playful look in her eyes.

"Ma'am." Kexin stomped her foot and ran to the carriage behind her, so as not to be made fun of by everyone.

Looking at the spicy Ke Xin, there are also times when she is shy, and everyone laughs out loud unkindly, so Ke Xin looks like a girl.

The group got into the carriage and left, and after Song Yao sat down, he lifted the curtain and looked at the roof of the mansion.

I saw Helian Sheng wearing a mask, and his robe swayed gently in the wind, like an immortal who had fallen into the mortal dust.

With a gentle wave of his hand, Song Yao silently spit out three words: See you in the capital.

Helian Sheng smiled but didn't answer, and watched the carriage leave, until he couldn't see Song Yao's figure clearly, then he summoned the secret guard and sent him down to the ground.

"Let people go back to the capital first and get ready." Helian Sheng said in a cold voice.

Historically, there have been big banquets in the palace, and there will be various situations.

It's just that most of them have been strangled in the cradle, and there is no chance to cause trouble, and Helian Sheng has always been too lazy to pay attention to it, and his own emperor has a headache.

But this time, with Song Yao participating, Helian Sheng must not give people the opportunity to harm her.
