Han Youning knew when the old court envoy was talking about, that is, before she and Zhao Chengyuan got married, the prince was seriously ill.

At that time, he wanted to use his death to force her to soften, but she had just been recognized by him at that time, and she tried her best to get rid of him, and she did not have a soft heart for him.

At that time, she was willing to visit him, but she was afraid that his death would implicate Zhao Chengyuan.

He, even to that point, has never made the things of his previous life clear, so how can she get rid of the misunderstanding and forgive him?

Zhao Chenfeng's eyes were gloomy, and there was a painful color that passed by, and he said lightly, "Lone is still alive, please let the old courtyard envoy take it." ”

The old courtyard envoy walked away tremblingly on crutches, muttering, "Why are you still alive?" Why don't you want to die all of a sudden? It's weird......"

Zhang Laosi got up and confessed again, hurriedly chased after the old father, and whispered to persuade him not to speak.

Zhao Chen entered the study and sat down.

I don't know how many charcoal pots are placed in the outer study, which is as warm as spring. He only came in for a moment before the remaining frost and snow on his body melted away, and the cold frost between his eyebrows disappeared without a trace.

It's just that the gray in his hair is still there.

But I haven't seen him for a year, why he has become like this, Han Youning can roughly guess a few points.

She sat next to Zhao Chengyuan, drinking tea with her eyes lowered, and she didn't know what it was like in her heart for a while.

Zhao Chengyuan had already noticed the change in Zhao Chen, his frosty hair was particularly dazzling. If the prince is not for Youning, he does not believe it.

In the past month, the people sent out have not been able to find the whereabouts of the prince until he entered the territory of the Great Zhou. And the prince was in a hurry, and the guards hurried overnight, but the news was sent back six hours earlier than the prince.

It can be seen that the prince did not sleep much along the way, and he was all on horseback.

Zhao Chengyuan's phoenix eyes were indifferent, and he said, "The prince's whereabouts are secret, and it is difficult for this king to send someone to find you and deliver you news." ”

Zhao Chen took a sip of hot tea, and the turquoise tea soup flowed into his stomach and intestines, and it was hot all the way. He hadn't experienced this hot sensation in a long time.

It's just that his tea is different from the flower tea of Zhao Chengyuan and You Ning.

Before Youning concocted flower tea, he always had to share his share. Youning always pointed at the petals with his pointed and delicate fingers, and told him the taste of each petal quite seriously, and let him taste the wonders of mixing together. Although he doesn't have such a sensitive tongue and can't taste the artistic conception she said, he just looks at the petals floating in the tea soup, and his mood is good.

He drank that flower tea for two years, and he never drank it again after Youning entered the prince's mansion. Now, he is even more blessed.

Zhao Chen said hoarsely, "Alone in Xiliang to investigate, I want to change my face and hide my whereabouts." King Xiliang and many generals of Xiliang have seen Gu on the battlefield, and if they find out, Gu may not be able to come back. ”

Zhao Chengyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Go to Xiliang to investigate?"

Zhao Chen said, "King Xiliang mobilized his troops and horses aggressively, but in the end he quietly withdrew his troops. Lonely was not sure, afraid that they were brewing some big moves, so he went to Xiliang to investigate. This time it was delayed for half a year. ”

Zhao Chengyuan's face was unwavering, and he asked, "Then what did you find?" ”

Zhao Chen said, "It is true that Xiliang retreated, and half of the troops and horses were mobilized to expand to the western and northern borders of Xiliang. But they still left 200,000 soldiers and horses in Baishan Prefecture, which was 600 miles away from the border city. Their covetousness for the Great Zhou is immortal. ”

He glanced at Youning, who was holding the glass cup in both hands, as if admiring the petals inside. But she was holding her breath and concentrating, listening to him carefully.

What he didn't understand was that King Xiliang was bound to Youning in his previous life, so why he suddenly gave up in this life.

In short, King Xiliang has always been a great hidden danger.

Zhao Chengyuan listened with heavy eyebrows, and it was not easy to determine the prince's intention to say this for a while.

What he said was true, and my uncle had arranged it that way. But didn't he go looking for a thousand-year-old snow lotus?

If he was not at ease, why didn't he go directly from the border city, but turned back on the way back to Beijing?

Zhao Chengyuan glanced at the chilblains on Zhao Chen's hands, and his ten fingers were red and swollen like turnips, "Once the prince has been gone for half a year, is this the only harvest?" ”

Zhao Chen said, "There are still some matters related to national affairs, so it is not good to talk to the Seventh Emperor Uncle in detail." ”

Zhao Chengyuan didn't ask, and issued an eviction order, "In this case, the prince warms his body, so go to the palace to report his safety." The people who miss you are in the palace. ”

"There's no hurry."

Zhao Chen looked at Han Youning, and there was warmth in his eyes, "I haven't asked Aunt Seven Emperors yet." ”

Han Youning put down the cup in his hand and said in a calm tone, "It's good that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can come back safely." ”

Naturally, he wanted to come back safely, and he wanted to see her safe.

Just now I heard the palace guards talk about the old hospital envoy diagnosing Youning's pulse, and his heart, which had been tense for half a year, could no longer hold on, and it collapsed in an instant.

The old hospital envoy braved the blizzard to come, if it wasn't for Youning's dangerous condition, what else could it be?

Fortunately, there was a false alarm.

She's fine.

At this time, there was no wind and snow, Zhao Chen looked at Han Youning again, and felt that she not only had a good complexion, but also became more and more calm and tranquil, even in the face of him, there was no trace of resentment and anger.

Before, she still hated him and rejected him, but she always had emotions, but now she doesn't even have that only emotion, and he doesn't seem to be able to cause the waves in her heart anymore.

Or, her body...... It's not that she's healed as it seems on the surface, but it makes her look down on the world and doesn't want to worry about all kinds of love and hate entanglements with him in her previous life?

Thinking of this, Zhao Chen's heart sank, and his hands couldn't help clenching, "Aunt Seven Emperors looks good, I heard that Aunt Seven Emperors was seriously ill with a terminal illness, but now she is getting better?" ”

Han Youning nodded, "It's all right." The prince bought the thousand-year-old snow lotus from the Xiliang people into medicine, and Master Xuanzhi's medical skills were profound, and the medicine was cured. ”

As soon as Zhao Chen's hand was released, the hanging heart returned to its original place completely and peacefully.

"That's very good."

He stood up, "That lonely will stop bothering, take your leave." ”

Zhao Chengyuan didn't get up to send him off, but only ordered, "Ye Chang, send the prince." ”

"Yes!"

Ye Chang smiled and said, "Your Highness, please!" ”

Zhao Chen leaned over slightly and picked up the big on the back of the chair next to him.

The afterglow swept by, and there was a stack of papers on the low table next to the chair, and the top one read-

Black hen fetal soup: one hen, two taels of Poria cocos, one liter of Evodia, two taels of peony, two taels of Ejiao...... It is used to stabilize the fetal image in the first trimester.

Zhao Chen's eyes quickly swept over the prescription, and his chest seemed to be hammered, and it was painful. It turned out that the old hospital came, and it was Youning who was pregnant.

He withdrew his gaze and walked out of the study with a big hat.

Wei Xiao, who was waiting outside, was quite surprised to see that the prince came out so soon, and stepped forward, "The prince ......"

Zhao Chen said lightly, "Let's go." ”

Let's take a step into the impermeable snowstorm.

The cold wind and snow quickly annihilated him, leaving only a lonely and gloomy back.

Wei Xiao looked at the box in his hand suspiciously, carefully held it in his arms, and chased it out quickly.

There will be a second watch, but it will be twelve hours later, in the middle of the night!
