Chapter 922: Return to the Palace

The wind and rain are coming, counting the time, Wang Shun should have almost arrived at the palace. It's just that I don't know if Xi He's return to the palace will be delayed because of this wind and rain?

After a long absence, Yang Yunxi raised her hand to hold down her chest, and also suppressed the tumbling emotions that almost whistled out, and unexpectedly found that she was a little looking forward to Xihe's early return.

This time, in the contest between her and Xihe, one of them must have lost his life.

At the beginning, she let Xihe go to the palace and let Xihe pick up a life, but now it has become a regret in her heart. Seriously, she had never regretted it so much.

This time, no matter what the situation is, she will not let it go again.

The rain finally came, as if someone was pouring basins of water directly down in the sky. The water from the eaves gradually became a crystal curtain, and then meandered into a stream on the bluestone slabs under the eaves.

Taking a deep breath, I felt as if even the tiny raindrops scattered in the air had been inhaled into my body. A piece of cool and moist.

Wang Shun was a little slower on the road, and when he arrived at the palace, he didn't even have a dry place in his body. The gauze hats on his heads were all a little crooked by the torrential rain. The hem of the clothes is twisted even harder, and a puddle of water can be wrung out immediately.

Wang Shun couldn't help but curse: "This weather." It seems that he won't be back to the palace so soon, but I hope it won't be too long. After that, he entered the house, dried himself, changed his clothes, and hurried to see Xihe.

When Xihe went to the palace gate from Wang Shun, he knew about it. So she has been waiting for Wang Shun to come and ask to see, but she is not in a hurry, she slowly put a pill into the incense cage, and carefully covered it with hot ash, until she smelled the wisps of fragrance, and then she was satisfied with the carved hollow lid, and then clapped her hands, carefully sorted out the clothes, and then said: "Let him come in." ”

After Wang Shun entered the room, he first glanced around quietly, and secretly said in his heart that Concubine Shu would enjoy it very much. Then he bowed down: "The slave maid asks for peace to the lady concubine." ”

Xihe smiled, and his voice was soft: "Princess, long time no see." Get up, sit down and talk. But I don't know why you came here in the rain in such a heavy rain, princess? ”

Although Wang Shun said that he saluted respectfully, but he was Yang Yunxi's person, he naturally refused to fold Yang Yunxi's face, and when he thanked him, he sat down generously. Then he smiled at Xihe: "Today, it was the concubine Niangniang who ordered the slave maid to come and pick up the concubine Niangniang back to the palace." ”

Hee Hee is wearing a silver-red skirt and a crimson half-arm today. Inside the half arm is a light crescent white robe. It looks delicate and slender.

It's just that Wang Shun is a little disdainful: knowing that the emperor is injured now, but still wearing such a bewitching color, it is a bit too much.

And Xihe listened to Wang Shun's words, and he was just right to show a little surprise: "The concubine asked the princess to take me back to the palace?" ”

Wang Shun's expression did not move, but he still smiled lightly, neither flattering nor arrogant: "Exactly." Can you consider when we will leave? ”

Xihe avoided answering, and even his surprise was restrained, as if he didn't feel much joy, and his tone faded: "But I don't know why?" Can the prince explain a few things to me? ”

Xihe's posture is like this, but he doesn't feel that he is being belittled, but only thinks that he is the head of the four concubines.

Wang Shun didn't look down on it from the bottom of his heart, but it was not easy to show it on his face, so he only relayed the reason given by Yang Yunxi.

Xihe showed a hint of abruptness, then Yingying smiled, got up and bowed in the direction of the palace: "It was the Queen Mother's kindness, and when I return to the palace, I will go to thank the Queen Mother and her old man." ”

But he didn't mention Yang Yunxi at all.

Wang Shun was even more dissatisfied in his heart, and he immediately squeezed out a smile - but the smile was a little fake: "I don't know when the lady concubine wants to leave?" ”

Xihe glanced at Wang Shun, and didn't know what to think in his heart, but he didn't show any expression. After a little silence, he made a decision: "Since the Queen Mother is sick, I just want to go back to the palace to serve in front of me earlier." It's just such a heavy rain...... I'm afraid it's going to be hard for the princess. ”

This means that you have to brave the rain to return to Beijing.

Wang Shun raised his eyebrows slightly, but his smile was a little more real: "It's good to go back to the palace earlier to get back to the concubine Niangniang." ”

As for the rain, it doesn't matter if it's a carriage.

Wang Shun then took his leave. After going out, Wang Shun glanced at the vague overlapping mountains in the rain curtain, revealing a bit of ridicule. However, thinking about Yang Yunxi's current situation, he restrained his emotions again, and walked towards the courtyard where he was resting with an expressionless face. To be honest, he didn't want Xihe to go back.

The rain fell on the tiles, and the crackling sound rang out all night.

Yang Yunxi tossed and turned all night and didn't sleep well. I woke up several times, and then I fell asleep again listening to the sound of the rain in a daze. And so on until the early morning of the next day.

After a night, the rain seemed to be lighter. But it didn't stop, and there were already a few puddles in the low places of the yard. Yang Yunxi stood under the porch and looked at the jar of lotus flowers under the eaves that had been hit by heavy rain all night.

The water in the tank was already overflowing, but it was not easy to take care of it at this time - it had been raining, and it was full after scooping for a while. However, the lotus leaves are still erect, and the buds are not damaged. On the contrary, the raindrop smashed on the lotus leaf, and there was a round crystal bead when it landed, and then the lotus leaf trembled, and the crystal-like bead rolled down.

Yang Yunxi watched it for a while, but unconsciously felt much better.

After breakfast, thinking that Princess Zhaoping would not come to Zhaoping in the heavy rain today, he went to see Zhu Li, and naturally he didn't forget to bring the little insects.

Zhu Li's breakfast has also been used - he is now a palace person who carefully pours some soft medicinal porridge with special utensils every day. Otherwise, if you lie down like this, you will starve to death.

The appearance of porridge is naturally not good-looking, and it also makes people feel sad. After Yang Yunxi watched it once, he didn't dare to look at it again. If you don't see it, although you know it, you won't see it in the end, and your heart won't be so uncomfortable.

The little insect was young and didn't know how to be afraid, so when he saw Zhu Li, he pounced, called Daddy crisply, and shook Zhu Li to tell him to hurry up.

Naturally, there was still no response, and the little insect felt disinterested after a while, and lay on the side of the bed very happily, watching Yang Yunxi carefully wipe Zhu Li's hands and face.

The mother and daughter said a few words from time to time, and Yang Yunxi deliberately teased the little worm to be happy, only hoping that even if Zhu Li was asleep, she could still hear their voices - she was so extravagant in her heart.

After staying for a while, Concubine Zeng came over. Although I used an umbrella and a coat, the skirt was still a little wet. It's just that Concubine Zeng didn't care at all, but smiled and said to Yang Yunxi: "This rain has been raining for a long time." After a pause, he asked, "I heard that you ordered someone to pick up Concubine Shu?" ”
