Once the Gu poison on Huo Qiu's body was cured, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, even leading others to look at Tang Zhuozhao with a different look, especially Han Suanzi and Li Taiyi.
The weather is hot, and several ice bowls are placed side by side in the Yiqiu Palace. Several palace maids are shaking small palace fans, and the sweet orange fragrance in the fruit bowl is constantly overflowing. The whole palace looks like a crystal palace. , very cool.
Tang Zhuozhuo was sitting in front of the small table, holding a jade pestle in his hand, finely crushing the ice cubes in the small bowl in front of him into shards, and pouring some juice from the jade bowl beside him from time to time, crushing The ice turned into various colors, which looked very strange.
An Xia waited on the side, took away the remaining juice with a smile, seeing the master so happy, she couldn't help but said: "Since I relieved His Highness of the Gu, your empress is in this mood, just like the sun in the sky."
Tang Zhuozhuo pursed her lips and smiled without hiding it. Every time the jade pestle and bowl under her hand collided with each other, there was a low muffled sound. She said, "You're making fun of me. Who in the East Palace knows about this happy?"
After finishing speaking, she put the jade pestle in her hand on the desk, looked at the pale pink peach crushed ice and shook her head dissatisfied, then rubbed her pantothenic wrist and stood up.
An Xia handed her a handkerchief to wipe her hands, and finally couldn't hold back her doubts from the bottom of her heart: "Your Majesty, how did you know how to detoxify?"
"Emperor Li is helpless."
Tang Zhuozhao kept walking, and replied with a smile: "There are people outside the mountains, and there are too many capable people in this world."
An Xia hesitated to speak.
She naturally knows the truth, but the problem is that this capable person is just the master who grew up with a lot of pets, which makes her a little confused.
Your Majesty, she has always been a door-to-door, how did she learn the method of dispelling Gu
If the old lady finds out about it, she might be so surprised.
Tang Zhuozhuo naturally knew the question in her heart, walked to the dowry box and picked out a coral bracelet to put on, and asked casually, "Have you delivered the pastries I asked the small kitchen to make earlier?"
After all, very few people know about Huo Qiu's Gu planting, so Tang Zhuozhuo's ability to undo Gu is rarely mentioned. One is to guard against Huo Qi, and the other is because she likes to be quiet and doesn't want to provoke too much Trouble upper body.
What's more, Huo Qiu issued a death order, no one should gossip behind his back.
An Xia is a loyal one, so Tang Zhuozhuo trusts her a little more in this life, but she is a maid after all, knowing too much is not a good thing for her, but will bring disaster.
This is also the reason why Tang Zhuozhuo was unwilling to explain her doubts thoroughly.
As soon as she finished speaking, Zihuan brought an ancient wooden food box, before opening the outer wooden box, she could already smell a strong milky fragrance.
Tang Zhuozhuo twitched her nose slightly, stretched her eyebrows, and smiled until her eyes were left with two small crescents. She said crisply, "I smell the custard cake."
Zihuan smiled while nodding: "Isn't it? There are fresh milk cakes made in the small kitchen today. Nothing can be hidden from the eyes and nose of the empress."
Tang Zhuozhuo rubbed his faintly aching wrist, and said: "Let's go, let's follow the example of Zhong Liangdi and send some wine and snacks to His Highness."
Zihuan and An Xia looked at each other, and they both saw bright smiles in each other's eyes.
Just after leaving the gate of Yiqiu Palace, the scorching sun was in the sky, and the heat wave was rolling towards his face. Tang Zhuozhuo accidentally let the sand in the wind dazzle his eyes, and tears kept streaming down his face. When he reached the main hall, his eyes were still red A piece of it, as if I just cried a lot.
When Zhang Desheng saw this person, the smile on his face hadn't fully burst out yet, he saw the eyes under Tang Zhuozhuo's slap, he couldn't help being taken aback, and then asked the person while leading him in, "What's wrong with your mother?"
Tang Zhuozhao covered most of his face with a round fan, and said, "When I came here, I was blinded by the wind, is your Highness still discussing matters?"
Zhang Desheng breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, and bowed his waist back: "Exactly, all the gentlemen are inside."
Tang Zhuozhuo stopped in his tracks, and frowned, "Then I will wait in the outer hall."
"Your Majesty, Your Highness has already ordered that if you come, you don't need to wait outside, just go in."
Tang Zhuozhuo took a few glances in the direction of the inner hall, then took the heavy food box from Zihuan's hand and walked into the inner hall.
There was a clear distinction between the inside and the outside, one moment it was still flustered by the heat, the next moment there were thin pimples on his body, Tang Zhuozhuo raised his eyes, and through a bead curtain, the figures of Huo Qiu and the others were faintly visible.
Xu Shi heard the movement, and the voice inside gradually stopped.
Tang Zhuozhuo's face was covered with a veil, only a pair of clean eyes were exposed, faintly outlining a heart-pounding aftertaste.
She stood still outside the pearl curtain, rested her body firmly, and said in a clear and clear voice, "Concubine, Your Highness please be well."
No one answered.
After a while, the sound of steady footsteps came to him, Huo Qiu lifted the pearl curtain and lifted him up.
His eyes stopped on the food box in her hand, and he smiled slightly, "Come to deliver some snacks to Gu?"
Tang Zhuozhuo was silent, and hid the peach blossom wine in the other hand behind his back, humming in a low voice.
Huo Qiu's eyes were deep, and he drew people in.
As soon as Tang Zhuozhao entered, Han Suanzi laughed and teased: "I only know that the Crown Princess is good at acupuncture, but I didn't expect that the kung fu of brewing wine is also excellent."
They are all year-round drinkers, and they can smell alcohol when they move their noses.
Tang Zhuozhuo put the food box on the desk, looked up, and saw that two of the three people standing in the hall were acquaintances.
Except for Han Suanzi, the man standing on the right side clasped his fists, his pair of peach blossom eyes were extremely eye-catching, and the eyebrows looked a little like Tang Zhuozhuo, when he saw her looking over, he grinned.
Tang Zhuozhuo turned to look back at Huo Qiu, and saw that his expression was the same, so he pressed his lips tightly to suppress the surprise in his heart, and finally he couldn't help but smile softly.
That was her second elder brother Tang Yuan, the one who loved her the most among the three elder brothers.
She hasn't seen many brothers since she was reborn, and even if she occasionally thinks about the three years in the cold palace in her previous life, she is full of resentment.
And the person standing on the left is as gentle as jade, extremely refined, with wise eyes shining, and a warm smile.
Tang Zhuozhuo had never seen this person before, until he cupped his fists and greeted her warmly, she seemed to think of something, and asked with a calm smile: "Your Highness, this is Mr. Liu whom my concubine's third brother admires very much?"
Apart from Liu Hanjiang, she couldn't think of anyone else who could go in and out with Han Suanzi.
Huo Qiu's eyes were fixed on the corners of her reddened eyes, and he didn't pay attention when he had a quick glance just now, but when he looked at it now, it was clear that he had cried not long ago.
Who messed with her
"I'm not talented, so I can't be the admiration of the third son." Liu Hanjiang replied with a graceful smile, with the unique gentle charm of Jiangnan between the lines, the smile on Tang Zhuozhuo's face gradually faded a little, the veil lightly moved, Reveals delicate facial contours.
"So it's really Mr. Liu." She paused, and then stopped talking.
Whether it is a foreign minister, no matter how much she deliberately tries to find out, she can't do it.
Fortunately, Huo Qiu opened his mouth at this time, with a mellow and hoarse voice: "If you are hungry, come and taste the dim sum in the East Palace, don't say you are stingy." His eyes fell on the small bottle of wine, and he laughed loudly : "I'll hide this wine by myself, and I'll ask someone to dig it out in the spring of the next year."
Han Suanzi and Liu Hanjiang shook their heads hesitantly, but Tang Yuan clapped his hands and smiled, and said, "His Highness Chen Tuo's blessing, this is the first time I have eaten a cake from my younger sister."
Tang Zhuozhao glanced at him sideways, automatically ignoring his words, but Huo Qiu's gaze was so strong that she moved her body, feeling a little uncomfortable.
When everyone left, only the two of them were left in the hall.
Huo Qiu twirled a piece of milk cake, the sweetness melted in the mouth and had a very strong milk fragrance, he subconsciously frowned.
"Your Highness doesn't like it?"
Tang Zhuozhao asked belatedly, causing Huo Qiu to give him a half-smile look.
The woman in front of her was frail and thin, with a slender waist that couldn't be grasped, so she should be able to live well after eating such desserts.
But what about the magical technique of acupuncture and moxibustion? How to explain it
Just now Tang Yuan was tricked by his few words, Tang Zhuozhuo hadn't read a few medical books at all, and he played the piano and painted pictures on weekdays, or fiddled with some novel gadgets.
Huo Qiu looked at her slap-sized face, and suddenly said: "Tang Yuan told me that there is a daughter Hong who has been buried in the Tang mansion for seventeen years, and Gu is more interested in that."
Tang Zhuozhuo didn't expect him to mention this suddenly, and slowly blushed, saying: "Why is he still talking about such things with His Highness?"
Huo Qiuxuxu's hand slowly loosened, he smiled deeply, the dark light in his sword eyes was bottomless, just like what he said, people couldn't figure it out.
"Jiaojiao, leave for Xijiang tomorrow morning, don't you regret it?"
Tang Zhuozhuo blinked, regretting what? Follow to Xijiang? or something else
She could vaguely guess some of his thoughts, but they were too vague, and she didn't want to delve into it.
Tang Zhuozhuo's glittering and translucent nails were glowing with pure white light. She met Huo Qiu's staring eyes and just nodded her head like a ghost.
For a moment, the hall fell into an eerie silence, rather than having nothing to say, it was more like a silent confrontation.
Tang Zhuozhuo lowered her eyelids, her eyelashes fluttered a few times, and the veil trembled accordingly, perfectly covering up the emotions in her eyes.
What is Huo Qiu wondering, how could she not know? But he didn't open his mouth to ask, he went up to explain it rashly, which inevitably made people feel guilty.
And there are some things, even if they are explained clearly, there is no guarantee that he will not think too much about them.
Huo Qiu turned the jade wrench in his hand, and opened the cork of the altar of peach blossom wine. The rich aroma of the wine was mixed with the aroma of flowers, and it was extremely mellow, sweet and lingering.
While she was still in a daze, he had already poured a small bowl of wine for himself.
After taking a sip of the wine, the tip of his tongue felt a burning sensation all the way to his stomach. Even though the wine was not strong, he felt that he was a little drunk.
Since she has come together by herself, then in the long years to come, she will not be able to retreat an inch.
Even if he tied her, he wanted to tie her by his side!
