Everything in the army is kept simple, and Yan Gui’s tent is no exception.
The couch was simply laid out on the ground, with a straw mat and a thin quilt.
Weiyang walked over, took off her shoes, got on the bed, and sat obediently on the thin blanket.
The ground beneath the straw mat was rough. She stepped on it a few times and felt very uncomfortable.
Not to mention sleeping, she can't even sit.
Why did the elder sister send her to the army? This is obviously making things difficult for her!
However, she was still alive, and although her life was hard, she was luckier than most people in the mansion.
More than two months had passed since the incident, and Wei Yang only knew that there had been a huge fire in the mansion, which had burned everything down.
I didn’t know that only a few people escaped from home.
She also naively hoped that the current emperor would vindicate the Su family. After all, her sister was the queen and her nephew was the prince.
…
In the capital city, in the imperial palace, in a dilapidated palace, a solitary lamp flickered.
Su Junyao sat at the desk with one hand hanging by his side and the other holding the teacup in front of him, his fingertips gently sliding across the surface of the cup.
She was wearing a white dress and a single white flower in her hair.
This is clearly showing mourning for relatives!
There were already many taboos in the palace. If the emperor knew that she was blatantly mourning for her relative, she would be punished for disrespect.
At this moment, she didn't care. She had been in the palace for 13 years and had given birth to three children. The only one she kept was her eldest son when she was a princess.
Now that Xu'er has been punished to go to the border, what else does she have to worry about? What's more, it's this cold palace where no one has ever been.
"My lady, please have some porridge."
Accompanying the disfavored queen were the two little maids she had brought from the Su Mansion: Peony and Platycodon.
When Jun Yao was at her mother's house, she liked to play with medicinal herbs. She would name the maids around her after medicinal herbs, and even the maids around her two younger sisters were not spared.
The two girls beside Su Linlang are named Bai Zhi and Ding Xiang.
The two girls beside Su Weiyang are named: Doukou and Chanyi.
After thirteen years in the palace, the little maid has grown into a big maid.
"Peony, you said Xu'er should have arrived in Tuocheng by now." Su Junyao raised his hand and took a sip of the hot water in the teacup.
Shaoyao was a girl with a round face and a pleasant appearance. Upon hearing this, she quickly put down her bowl of porridge and said softly, "It's about time now."
"The border is bitterly cold, I don't know if Xu'er can stand it!"
Su Junyao sighed quietly. She had been careful and cautious in the palace, but she had not expected that the emperor would take action so quickly. It was her mistake.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been practicing martial arts since he was young, and he has suffered a lot. Besides, his body has always been healthy, so I think there will be no problem."
"I hope so!"
Look at the bowl of porridge in front of them, it is a bowl of thin porridge with no side dishes. Even the farmers in the countryside are better off than they are now.
Su Junyao picked up the bowl of porridge, drank a few mouthfuls, put the bowl down and looked at Shaoyao: "Is Platycodon better?"
In the past few days, Jiejing had been taking care of Su Junyao at night and caught a cold, so she didn't dare to come close to him for fear of passing on the disease to Su Junyao.
Shaoyao came over and took the bowl of porridge, and said softly, "I feel much better after drinking the medicine."
Hearing what Shaoyao said, Su Junyao couldn't help but laugh at herself. What kind of medicine was this? She just directed Shaoyao to secretly pick some kinds of flowers and herbs in the garden. Just like their names, they were both flowers and medicines.
"Wei Yang should have seen Yan Gui by now!" Su Junyao murmured softly.
Hearing this, Shaoyao stopped and said, "My lady, there is something I cannot figure out."
"Go ahead."
Su Junyao and Shaoyao Platycodon are nominally master and servant, but they grew up together and have a special relationship.
"Miss Nine has been spoiled since she was a child, and she really knows nothing. If the queen wants to save her, why not let Madam Qian send her to Jiangnan and buy a house for her to live in.
Why... Why..." At this point, Shaoyao lowered her voice, not knowing what to say next.
