On the day of leaving the capital, Prince Min had already prepared early. He put on his prince's clothes and looked very energetic. When he saw Zhao Qingye coming out of the room, he narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Princess, are you ready?"
Zhao Qingye was also filled with emotion.
But she was happy.
Although she concealed it very well last time, it was really sad for her to have to watch the love between Xiao Heng and Su Yao all the time, so she was relieved now that she was leaving.
She smiled sincerely: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I have prepared everything."
The two of them went out together.
Before they left the city, Xiao Heng arrived and escorted them all the way out of the city.
The Zhao family, the fifth prince and the seventh prince also came and set up a tent to see him off.
The Sixth Prince thanked them one by one.
Zhao Qingye's gaze fell on Xiao Heng's face, trying to find a trace, even a hint of reluctance or affection.
But from beginning to end, Xiao Heng didn't even look at her.
She felt sour, bitter and angry at the same time.
Xiao Heng didn't care about these. He saw them off according to etiquette and returned to the East Palace.
He has been busy recently and can only stay in his palace for a while longer at night. Now he is in the palace in broad daylight and everyone is still a little uncomfortable.
Xiao Heng didn't let them disturb Su Yao, so he quietly pushed the door open and went in, and found that Su Yao was discussing something with the people below.
Seeing him coming back, Su Yao was a little surprised. She sent away all the female officials and stood up quickly: "Why are you back?"
Seeing her smiling face and her overjoyed look at him, Xiao Heng couldn't help but smile. He naturally held her in his arms and rubbed his head against her chin: "I missed you. I sent Uncle Six away and was too lazy to go out again, so I came back early to accompany you."
He also asked Su Yao what he was busy with.
Su Yao smiled and said, "I'm looking at the princess's dowry. The Queen Mother and the Imperial Concubine both said that this matter should be handed over to me."
This means to let Su Yao practice.
Xiao Heng said "oh" and didn't take it seriously. Su Yao was very good at handling these things and there was no need to worry at all.
He touched Su Yao's head, picked her up and sat her on the couch, and suddenly said softly: "Yaoyao, I may have to leave too."
Su Yao paused.
She sighed softly.
Sure enough, a comfortable life will wear down one's fighting spirit.
She had lived in peace for too long recently. The Empress Dowager Tian in the palace liked her very much and loved her almost as much as Princess Jingming. Concubine Pang also consulted her on everything and never kept anything from her. Her status and position had now reached that of the Crown Prince's Consort. Neither of them made things difficult for her, and now no one gave her a cold shoulder or picked trouble with her.
Not to mention the relationship between him and Xiao Heng.
The marriage between her and Xiao Heng was not a blind one. They trusted each other and had already decided on each other. After getting married, they had almost become one and wished they could stick together every day without getting bored.
She hasn't had to use her brain for a long time.
When she heard these words again, the first thing that rose in her heart was melancholy.
She put her arms around Xiao Heng's waist and leaned her head on his chest: "I know, you are going to take care of the navy's business, right?"
Building a navy in Zhejiang is no small matter, and the imperial court will definitely send an imperial envoy.
Xiao Heng wanted to go by himself.
I believe Emperor Yuanfeng would also allow this.
She knew what Xiao Heng meant, but she couldn't bear to let him take the risk.
Xiao Heng touched her face and saw that her eyes were shining and she was looking up at him. He couldn't help but breathe heavier and suddenly reached out to cover her eyes. Then Su Yao felt something soft covering her lips.
She subconsciously clung to Xiao Heng's clothes.
Xiao Heng pried open her lips and teeth very skillfully, and his hand also reached into her clothes.
After a long while, when Su Yao was already dazed and completely out of strength from being kissed, Xiao Heng finally stopped, resting his forehead against Su Yao's, and said breathlessly: "I really want to put you in my purse and take you away!"
He also couldn't bear to part with Su Yao.
Su Yao couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Xiao Heng's eyes darkened, and he carried Su Yao to the bathroom.
The next day, the eleventh princess came to play with Su Yao. She was very relieved: "Now those Japanese envoys can no longer be arrogant. This is a good thing. They really don't know how to restrain themselves. They dare to be so presumptuous in our capital! They deserve to die!"
Her Royal Highness was very angry and annoyed, but also a little worried: "But these people are cruel and ruthless. Is it dangerous to fight with them?"
Su Yao saw that her face was red, so he asked, "Why do you ask that?"
What does an ordinary war have to do with a princess
The eleventh princess lowered her head and pursed her lips: "Sun Wencai is going to Zhejiang."
Su Yao was a little surprised: "Him?"
She was a little surprised: "He is not a military commander, why would he go to Zhejiang?"
"He said he wanted to go and give up writing to join the army." Princess Eleven thought it was a bit absurd, but she seemed to agree with it and said, "He didn't like studying in the first place. He was the only one in his family who liked to practice martial arts..."
This... ..Sun Yongning, who was born a civil servant, raised a child who was to practice martial arts.
Su Yao also found it a little unbelievable: "Do their families agree?"
Princess Eleven said listlessly: "From what he said, he agrees."
In fact, she liked Sun Wencai very much, and that was why she was worried about him.
Su Yao thought this matter was inexplicable, but since the Sun family had agreed, they must have considered it carefully, so she comforted the Eleventh Princess: "Don't be afraid, since he wants to go, his family must have plans, and he must have his own goals. Let him go, and he will come back to marry you in the future, wouldn't it be more glorious?"
It is not so easy for a princess to get married. In order to show their importance to their daughters, common people have to postpone the wedding date again and again, let alone a princess
It is not impossible for Sun Wencai to take advantage of this period of time to go to Zhejiang for training.
Princess Eleven propped her chin up with both hands and looked at Su Yao: "Sometimes I really envy you. My nephew is so good to you."
Su Yao: "... "
Ever since she married Xiao Heng, the Eleventh Princess came to the East Palace very frequently. As time went by, she and Xiao Heng became familiar with each other. She could joke with Xiao Heng calmly and often called Xiao Heng her nephew.
But Xiao Heng still couldn’t digest it, so he felt a little scared every time he saw the Eleventh Princess.
Su Yao found it funny and couldn't help but smile: "Then my future uncle will surely treat you well."
She turned the tables, and the Eleventh Princess was so frightened by her words "future uncle" that she ran away in anger and shame.
Su Yao laughed out loud.
