When Tang Zhuozhao woke up, the first thing he saw was Huo Qiu's stern side face. The sleeves of auspicious cloud pattern lined the large area of darkness, as if he had been coated with a layer of crystal white light.
She was half asleep and half awake, Huo Qiu put down the memorial in his hand, glanced at her, put down his arms that were somewhat numb from the pillow, and asked, "Have you had enough sleep?"
Tang Zhuozhuo nodded, his apricot eyes were still full of tiredness, as if holding a clear spring in his mouth, and his voice was still a little hoarse, he reached out and stroked his forehead: "Your Highness, where have we been?"
Huo Qiu picked up the car curtain with his hands, revealing a crack, enough to have a panoramic view of the situation outside.
Their carriage was driving smoothly through the streets of Chang'an, the bustling outside, the cries of various hawkers one after another, the sweet and glutinous aroma of pastries floated into the carriage along the crack, Tang Zhuozhuo was silent.
"Your Highness..." She raised her eyes and tugged at the corner of Huo Qiu's clothes.
The man raised his head and turned his eyes to her white and tender fingers, and found that she would subconsciously pull his sleeves every time. This small movement made him feel very comfortable, and even his voice was much softer.
"Um?"
"Somewhat hungry."
Huo Qiu's slender index finger paused, and then said to the outside: "Safe, go and buy some food."
There was no sound outside, but the speed of the carriage slowed down. After a while, Zhang Desheng lifted the curtain and came in with a few biscuits and candied haws in his hand. When he raised his eyes, he was taken aback for a moment.
The princess looked like she had just woken up, leaning half of her body on the master's body, with a smile on her face, she was more charming than a flower, not to mention the bright red peony stuck to the corner of her eye, which was charming and coquettish, and she was used to it. There was no sullen expression on the face of the most unfeminine master.
On the contrary, there was a vague and pleasant appearance.
Tang Zhuozhao took the hot biscuits, took a bite and it was crispy and soft, his eyes narrowed into two crescent moons, and he whispered contentedly: "The snacks on the streets of Chang'an are better."
Hearing this, Huo Qiu stared at the bunch of pleasing candied haws in her hand, and frowned subtly. He never valued his appetite, and everything he ate had the same taste, but every time he saw her, he looked like a greedy cat. Sample.
"Have you been out before?" He asked, looking away.
"I used to be very naughty. I used to pester my elder brothers to sneak out to play. I went shopping on Chang'an Street." She held candied haws in one hand and pointed at the turrets on the street with the other. It was the attractive appearance at the beginning, and it hasn't changed a bit.
However, his temperament has undergone a big change.
Huo Qiu's expression moved slightly, and he said: "Gu has only heard of your reputation as a spoiled child in the past, but I didn't realize that you are still active."
Those who can stay in their own palace without going out for a month, turned out to be a person who liked to be lively.
Tang Zhuozhuo just wanted to refute a few words, turned his head and met those deep black eyes, and slowly lost his breath.
A smile slowly appeared in Huo Qiu's eyes, he was a little too spoiled, but it was not a big deal, he was coaxing happily.
Tang Zhuozhuo originally thought that the capital city was not too far from Xijiang, but he didn't expect that the carriage staggered for more than ten days, and then changed the waterway. Finally, after more than a month passed, he finally heard the report, and he arrived at Xijiang ahead.
She finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was cold in the evening. She was wearing a light veil and standing at the bow of the boat. Bright little face.
After several days of traveling, she has lost a lot of weight.
An Xia pressed the corner of her clothes with some worry, and said, "Madam, let's go back to the boat. It's windy outside, and it may rain again at night."
Tang Zhuozhuo looked at the bottomless cold current below, and shook his head firmly after a while: "It won't rain, but it's just going to be windy for a few more days."
An Xia opened her mouth to speak but stopped. She had never discovered that her master had the ability to predict the weather. If it said windy, it would be windy, and if it was rainy, it would be rainy. It was more accurate than anything else.
It's amazing.
Tang Zhuozhuo turned his head after blowing the wind for a while, and asked casually, "Your Highness is busy discussing matters with Mr. Liu today?"
Zihuan and An Xia looked at each other, and the former said: "Yes, Your Highness announced Mr. Liu to the study an hour ago, but he hasn't come out yet. Eunuch Zhang just came to ask the empress not to wait for His Highness, and eat dinner by myself. "
Tang Zhuozhuo raised his dark-colored eyebrows, raised his slender hands slightly, and said, "Order me to send some snacks."
After finishing speaking, he tightened the cloak on his body and left the bow.
After returning to the cabin, he looked at the delicate food on the table, took a few bites and then put down the chopsticks, which made the waiters very worried.
"Your Majesty, you should eat more. Today, the maidservant specially boiled some purple rice porridge. You..."
Before he could finish speaking, Tang Zhuozhuo turned pale and threw up at the table. Both Zihuan and An Xia were terrified. They called warm water worriedly and wanted to go out to call the imperial doctor, but she stopped him.
"No one is allowed to go."
Only then did Tang Zhuozhuo regain his strength, he even struggled to speak, his little face was pale and pale, but they were not allowed to call the imperial physician.
Her own body has its own strengths. With the rush of travel these days and the severe changes in the climate, her body that has not been well adjusted can no longer hold up.
If the imperial physician was called, it was just to recuperate, and Huo Qiu would put on a cold face and ask someone to send her back to the capital.
That would really be worth the candle.
An Xia stomped her feet, her eyes were red with anxiety, "Ma'am, it's not a good idea for you to hold on like this! You haven't eaten much in the past few days, and you vomited badly when the boat bumped slightly. Why don't you see the imperial doctor?" OK?"
Tang Zhuozhuo sat on the edge of the bed, her face was not good, but her spirit was not bad. She pursed her lips and said, "We'll be there in two or three days. Do you want to be sent back to the capital at this time?"
"But your body..."
"Your Highness' illnesses are all cured by this palace, how can you not look after your own body?"
Tang Zhuozhuo waved his hand and repeatedly warned them not to disturb Huo Qiu because of this matter, so he hastily put on his clothes and rested.
Seeing that she had arrived at Xijiang, Huo Qiu became more and more busy. She hadn't seen anyone in the past three to five days, but she had seen Liu Hanjiang a few times.
Regarding this person, Tang Zhuozhuo was still undecided for a while, and made several side-steps, but he didn't look like a traitor at all, but he didn't reveal the slightest clue.
But it's just that they can't catch the slightest mistake, which makes people feel unreliable. Such a person is either innocent or hiding too deeply.
Tang Zhuozhuo's head hurt a little from thinking about it, and he fell asleep in a daze.
On the other side of the cabin, after Huo Qiu and Liu Hanjiang finished discussing the business, they happened to see the court lady next to Tang Zhuozhao bringing in a few plates of snacks, a smile appeared on his warm and jade-like face, and he said with a little deep meaning: "Ma'am This snack was delivered a little late today."
Huo Qiu raised his eyebrows, and said calmly: "She has always been like this."
Liu Hanjiang was noncommittal, thinking of the woman he saw from a distance in the morning, her complexion was more than a little worse than the previous two days.
"Today I saw the princess at the bow of the boat, she seems to have lost a lot of weight." He shook the feather fan in his hand, seemingly unintentionally.
The matter in Xijiang is no small matter, and in addition to the fact that there are six princes in the capital making trouble, Huo Qiu has been very busy these few days, except discussing affairs in the study and reading books all day long, he has lost a lot of weight, and has no time to worry about other things.
The princess is also very nice, and brings some snacks over every day, neither noisy nor noisy, but too quiet, as if there is no such person.
The movements in Huo Qiu's hand paused, then he lost the booklet he was holding in Liu Hanjiang's teasing eyes, got up and walked out the door indifferently.
Zhang Desheng flicked his fly whisk and hurriedly followed behind.
Liu Hanjiang shook the feather fan in his hand, clicked his tongue lightly, and went out the door. I sighed secretly in my heart, since ancient times, heroes have been saddened by the beauty pass, and what they are talking about is His Highness.
It's just that it's time for me to go to Houcang to accompany my wife and children.
After Tang Zhuozhuo was awakened by a slight movement, the first thing she saw was the man's condescending handsome face, wrapped in a deep and bottomless chill, which made her wake up a little in an instant.
She moved her body slightly and leaned against the cushion, only to realize that the servant maid was kneeling on the ground, and the whole room was incredibly quiet.
"Your Highness?" She raised her head and called in a low voice, her plain white face looked even more pitiful.
Huo Qiu just stared at her deeply without speaking, his face was ashen, the chill all over his body could not be ignored, and his eyes were full of anger and annoyance.
Tang Zhuozhuo's heart skipped a beat, and he had a bottom line immediately.
"Why is Your Highness here?" She bit the bullet and asked, her heart pounding, she couldn't bear the man's sword-like gaze.
"If you don't come again, you will die on the road?" After a while, Huo Qiu said with a cold face, and at the same time picked up a bowl of medicine beside the bed, and ordered without lifting an eyelid: "Everyone who serves the princess Everyone pulls out the staff and blames them."
Tang Zhuozhuo raised his eyes fiercely, his eyes swept across An Xia and Zi Huan who were kneeling on the ground and did not dare to raise their heads, he was in a hurry.
"No, Your Highness, I told them not to tell His Highness." She lowered her eyes, and drank the bitter medicine in the bowl under the man's gaze, without crying out.
Seeing her like this, Huo Qiu became even more angry.
He was really busy these days, if Liu Hanjiang didn't remind him, wouldn't she still have to carry on
Just now the imperial doctor came to see her, and she shook her head one after another as soon as she felt her pulse, saying that she had been suffering from vomiting for several days, and she hadn't taken the medicine in time, which almost hurt the root, she didn't take her body seriously at all!
This realization made him so angry that his apex ached.
Tang Zhuozhuo grabbed his sleeves, and there were tears in his eyes when he took the medicine just now, his pitiful appearance made people feel soft.
Huo Qiu didn't even look at her, instead he pinched her ridiculously thin jaw with a smile, and the veins on the back of the other hand protruded, "Is this how you take care of yourself?"
His chest heaved violently, and her thin chin under his hands poked people hard. Huo Qiu's gaze slowly swept across her pale face, and finally landed on her small and delicate wrist. The bracelet on it was hanging empty on her hand. People stabbed in the heart.
Tang Zhuozhuo also felt aggrieved. It was the first time she left the capital, and the boat was very bumpy, and her stomach was overwhelmed.
Besides, I was afraid of disturbing Huo Qiu, he was too busy to go to the ground now.
He had caused too much trouble in his previous life, so he couldn't repeat the same mistakes in this life.
"I know I'm wrong, Your Highness, don't be angry." She pulled Huo Qiu's sleeve again, the smell of ambergris spread in her nose, and the smell of medicine in her stomach also spread out, she endured it , I couldn't help but spit out the concoction I had just drank while lying in front of the bed.
The man's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, he was shocked and angry, and a sense of panic spread to his limbs, "Where's the imperial doctor?!"
Tang Zhuozhuo felt so uncomfortable that tears filled his eyes.
This is the end.
