The Lost Realm Chapter 85: Dinner (Part 4)
When Xia Chaoyu came out of the palace of Queen Xia, it was already dusk, and after leaving the palace in a hurry, he got into a carriage at Chengtianmen and headed towards the princess's mansion.
The princess's mansion, which was supposed to eat at dusk, was not served because Princess Muyang had not returned for a long time, and it was already dark when Princess Muyang returned to the mansion.
Xia Chaoyu, who arrived in the middle hall, looked at Jian Xiao and his wife sitting on the chair drinking tea, and after seeing that their faces were much better, Princess Muyang's guilt in her heart was also much better, and after sitting on the main seat, she looked at Jian Xiao and asked:
"Uncle Jane, how is Xiaoru now?"
Jian Xiao took a sip of tea and looked at Princess Muyang and said, "There is Princess Lao's concern, and at dusk, Doctor Xun sent someone to send a few doses of medicine, saying that the medicine can be taken when Xiaoru is in a coma to ensure that Xiaoru will be fine, such as frost just fed Xiaoru." ”
After seeing Princess Muyang nodding, Jian Xiao continued: "Princess, today Chongwu and His Royal Highness came back to Xia Cheng and are now resting in the mansion. ”
Hearing this, Princess Muyang hurriedly stood up, looked at Jian Xiao with surprise on her face and asked, "Where are they resting now?"
As soon as the words came out, Xia Chaoyu saw the maids who were serving the food, and knew that he was in a gaffe, so he slowly sat down and looked at Jian Xiao.
Jian Xiao didn't feel anything wrong when she saw Princess Muyang's reaction, but these days, Jian Xiao and his wife also knew the identity of Princess Muyang, and knew that Princess Muyang and Xiao Chongwu were still in the dark, so they said slowly:
The two of them arrived in the palace after the princess entered the palace, and had slept for nearly three hours now. ”
Princess Muyang looked at Jian Xiao with a smile on her face when she heard this, and then saw Qiao'er outside the middle hall shouting, Qiao'er walked quickly to Princess Muyang's side, and Princess Muyang commanded:
"Qiao'er, you go and wake up Curator Xiao and my younger brother for dinner. ”
Hearing this, Qiao'er glanced at Princess Muyang with a smile, and then left after answering.
Princess Muyang didn't care about her for Qiao'er's little girl, and at this time, Princess Muyang's heart was full of Xiao Chongwu, thinking that she had just confessed to her mother in the palace and received support, and when she came back, she knew that Xiao Chongwu was back, and the joy in her heart could not be described in words.
After the dishes were all ready, they didn't see Xiao Chongwu and Xia Ruixin for a long time, and just when Princess Muyang wanted to send someone to urge, the figures of the two slowly appeared outside the middle hall.
Princess Muyang took back her little daughter's demeanor and became dignified and virtuous, so she got up and walked towards the dining table with Jian Xiao and his wife, after the three arrived at the dining table, Princess Muyang saw that Xiao Chongwu and Xia Ruixin, who had walked into the middle hall, had not woken up, coughed lightly, and said dissatisfied:
"Qingtian slept until this time, and after I came back, I didn't let people send me news, and I asked you to eat late, and let Uncle Jian and Aunt Zhuang have been waiting for the two of you. ”
After Xiao Chongwu and the others heard Xia Chaoyu's words, Xia Ruixin yawned and looked at Xia Chaoyu with a depressed face and said: "Eldest sister, don't blame, I and Director Xiao didn't rest for a few days and nights, and only after they arrived did they sleep peacefully, you still say that." ”
Xia Chaoyu's heart was full of joy when he heard this, thinking that Xiao Chongwu must have rushed back non-stop to see him earlier, so Xia Chaoyu looked at Xiao Chongwu with a gentle face and said softly: "Director Xiao has worked hard, sit down." ”
After Xiao Chongwu nodded gently at Xia Chaoyu when he heard this, he asked Jian Xiao and his wife to sit down quickly, while Xia Ruixin stood at the table and looked at Xia Chaoyu with a dissatisfied look at Xia Chaoyu's appearance that he had no brother if he had a lover, and when he saw that Xia Chaoyu didn't care about himself, he sat down and began to eat.
Princess Muyang looked at the rude Xia Ruixin and did not reprimand, knowing that this kid was because she didn't take care of his sulking, so she ignored him and beckoned Jian Xiao and his wife to eat with Xiao Chongwu.
Xia Chaoyu did his best to serve vegetables to a few people, but the most he sandwiched was for Xiao Chongwu, fortunately, there were no outsiders present when everyone was eating, otherwise outsiders would secretly slander Xia Chaoyu and the ordinary woman.
Xia Chaoyu didn't know why these habits were so, although Xia Chaoyu, who was born in the prince's country, had to be educated since he was a child, and he had a deep memory of etiquette, but with the contact with Xiao Chongwu and Jian Ru's family in the past few months, Xia Chaoyu yearned for ordinary life in his heart, and his words and deeds slowly approached the ordinary woman.
At the dinner table, Jian Xiao thought of what Xiao Chongwu said today and asked, "Chongwu, when will you go to that closed city?"
Xiao Chongwu was burying his head in the big bowl of dishes in his bowl, and after hearing Jian Xiao's inquiry, he picked up his wine glass and took a sip of wine, smoothed his throat, and replied, "I'll leave tomorrow." ”
Xia Chaoyu, who was sitting on the main seat, said with a look of loss when he heard this: "So fast?"
Xiao Chongwu nodded, and said solemnly: "Originally, I planned to rush to the closed city all the way without resting in Xia City, but after a few days of traveling, my body was a little unbearable, so I rested in Xia City for a day today." ”
Xia Chaoyu, who was sitting on the main seat, heard that Xiao Chongwu rushed back to Xia City day and night not to see that he was a little disappointed in his heart, but after thinking that the closure was the place of his second brother Xia Ruiyi, he couldn't help but ask with some worry:
"What's the matter with the lockdown?"
Xia Ruixin answered at this time: "Eldest sister, don't worry, the second brother is fine, Director Xiao and I went to the lockdown to help the second brother." ”
After hearing this, Princess Muyang glanced at Xia Ruixin with relief and said, "The third child is sensible." ”
Xia Ruixin didn't answer and continued to eat, while Zhuang Rushuang on the side got up to say goodbye to Jian Ru after eating hastily, Xiao Chongwu heard Zhuang Rushuang take care of Jian Ru, so he picked up the teacup and took a sip of wine and said:
"Uncle Jian, now that Xiaoru has found the cause of the disease, I think I will wake up in a short time, you don't have to write a letter to Xiaoyou to talk about this matter, and Xiaoyou will definitely not be able to get out of Handan City when he goes to that place, so don't let him worry about this matter. ”
Jian Xiao nodded and smiled: "You kid has known the old man for so long and still don't know who the old man is?"
After Xiao Chongwu heard Jian Xiao's words, he smiled, picked up the teacup, toasted Jian Xiao, and the two drank it all.
Then the four people at the table talked about the war again, and the most asked was that Princess Muyang even asked about the details such as whether she ate enough every day or where she slept.
But Xiao Chongwu and Xia Ruixin did not mock Xia Chaoyu's ignorance, but informed Xia Chaoyu in detail word by word.
Although Xia Chaoyu has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, he has never entered the military camp and has never seen the scene of war, after this meal, Xia Chaoyu from Xiao Chongwu and Xia Ruixin's light tone, the battlefield full of gunsmoke appeared in his mind.
I began to worry a little about my younger brothers.
