Xia Chu's heart trembled when Xiao Mubai whispered in a confused voice. She stretched out her hand to cover his hand, placed her cheek in his palm and rubbed it gently.
"Go and pull him over." Han Sa saw Raven lingering behind Xia Chu and Xiao Mubai for a long time, and encouraged Su Qian'an to pull him aside.
"I don't dare, I have to go to you." Su Qian'an had been pointed out by Raven during the past two days when he had nothing to do. The feeling of punching to the flesh was still fresh in his memory. Naturally, he would not rush in as blankly as before. Got out.
Seeing that he couldn't talk to him, Han Sa could only grit his teeth, step forward and beg in a low voice to the raven: "Brother, can you move to the side? Don't you think it's embarrassing for you to be so scared here?"
The raven glanced at him sideways, and Hansa was so frightened that he shrank his neck and hid behind a tree.
At this time, Diandian, who had been following Xia Chu and Xiao Mubai, saw them stop and follow suit, wagging their red tails around Xia Chu's calves, and resting their heads on Xia Chu's ankles. Stop the intimate rubbing.
The surging emotions of Xiao Mubai and Xia Chu were not dampened by Raven, but instead forcedly intervened by Diandian.
Xia Chu couldn't help but laugh. He picked up the coquettish Dot and held it in his arms. Xiao Mubai looked at Dot who would have to gouge out the blood and detoxify it. Although he frowned, he really couldn't express his anger at it. He calmed down. With an emotional mood, he followed Xia Chu helplessly towards the pavilion.
Xie Jiming and Kong Changhui naturally waited there for a long time, waiting for Xia Chu to come and ask if it was him.
Although he had already guessed that they were inseparable, when Xie Jiming saw Xia Chu nodding in acquiescence, the shock in his heart was far more intense than expected.
From the time he came to Beijing to take the exam in the early days, his official career has been smooth now. If it hadn't been for Xia Chu, he might have died in the inn the day before the exam.
After being named on the gold list, although he became the first minister of the Ministry of Industry to be promoted to the fourth rank, he was envied by others. However, in order to stick to his own ideas, he was isolated, excluded, and looked down upon. Who would be willing to endure this if he could? .
Xie Jiming considers himself to be the Qingliu of Xiao State, and comforts himself that Qingliu has always been incompatible with the filth, and is destined to be the responsibility of only one person and no one understands.
However, Xia Chu knew all his difficulties and quietly took care of everything for him, so that he could not feel any trouble in his heart.
Therefore, Xie Jiming looked at Xia Chu, who was still young and was supposed to be well-dressed and well-fed, unaware of the sufferings of the people, and asked, "Why did the young marquis come here to take care of me for a subordinate?"
"Master Xie, do you still remember that letter?" Xia Chu asked.
Xie Jiming naturally remembered that letter. That letter contained all the thoughts in his heart and moved him. Although he had never met him, he already regarded the letter as his confidant.
"I don't like the imperial power to overwhelm others, I don't want powerful ministers to be in power, I don't want corruption and erosion, and I can't bear the injustice of loyal ministers. Therefore, Sir Xie, don't have any scruples. I don't need you to do anything for me. On the contrary, I hope to help Sir Xie become like that." People." Xia Chu recited softly.
In his previous life, it was because of these few words that he had a deep memory of looking at Jie Jiming in a different light, and in this life, Bingwen took special care of him.
Even though Jie Ji Ming was alone and arrogant and unwilling to surrender to others, his heart was warmed by Xia Chu's words at this moment.
"In this official life, I will definitely remember what the young Marquis said in his original letter: to be loyal to the country, to ask for orders for the people, to seek welfare for the country, and to speak out for the common people in the world." Xie Jiming's back was straight, and he spoke his heart sonorously and forcefully. As expected, even Kong Changhui beside him felt inexplicably excited.
Until the retreating figures of Xia Chu and Xiao Mubai gradually melted into the night, their emotions were still high and they couldn't control themselves for a long time.
In the next few days, Xia Chu was busy preparing Xiao Mubai's medicine every day. In his spare time, he would visit Xiang's house. In addition to seeing Zheng Zhongguang, he would also give more advice on Xiang Chengfang's medical skills.
Xia Chu was afraid that when he used a knife to cut out some of the blood from his heart, it would be frightened, so he put sleeping pills in the food he fed.
After the medicine took effect, he gently cut open a small bowl of heart blood, which was enough for about half a month. He only waited for half a month before making another cut, and asked Xiao Mubai to take the antidote for a month. This ice The poison is completely resolved.
When Diandian woke up from his sleep, the wound had been bandaged, and he didn't feel any pain. It was just that the missing hair on his heart made him feel more uncomfortable.
Therefore, every time he saw Xiao Mubai again, Diandian would always show his teeth and grin, then jump into Xia Chu's arms and ask for a touch and a hug.
After a few days of such leisurely days, a big event finally happened in Beijing. General Shi escorted the Mongolian princess to the capital today.
Xiao Yanjun personally went out of the city to greet him, and Lord Ju and others from the Ministry of Rites also waited outside the city gate early in the morning.
Xia Chu and his group were sitting around the Yayue Pavilion. Xu Wenlan looked at the vast array below and said mysteriously: "There are rumors going around that His Royal Highness King Yu is about to be established as the crown prince. Have you heard about it?"
Naturally, most of the people here already knew about it, but Zhao Xingwen was the only one who didn't dare to be interested in it. When he mentioned it, he picked up what he said and said, "I haven't heard that the emperor mentioned that he has the intention of establishing a heirloom."
Xu Wenlan was a little frustrated when he saw that most of them looked like they had already known each other. When Zhao Xingwen asked about it, he naturally replied happily: "According to my inquiries, this Mongolian princess who came to get married is a pearl on the grassland. The Khan’s favorite little daughter.”
Xu Wenlan paused for a moment when he said this, but Zhao Xingwen still didn't understand it at all when he heard this: "What does this have to do with the emperor's appointment of a heir apparent?"
Xu Wenlan was waiting for him to ask this question, and smiled enigmatically: "Think about it, why did Khan let his most beloved princess come to the Xiao Kingdom to get married? She would naturally have to marry the future prince of the Xiao Kingdom, so Rumors will spread among the people, saying that His Highness King Yu will be established as the crown prince soon."
Xia Chu glanced at Xiao Zimu, and seeing that his expression was calm, he turned to Xu Wenlan and said, "You are so capable, have you ever found out the name of this princess?"
Xu Wenlan looked slightly embarrassed: "How can I find out now? If you want to know, I will find someone to ask after she arrives in the capital."
"No need, I know." Xia Chu lowered his eyelids and chuckled while turning the wine glass in his hand.
"You don't make up nonsense, do you?" Xu Wenlan looked unbelieving, but his voice became softer and softer as he said this, because he glanced around the other people, and it seemed that except for him, even Xiao Mu Baimian didn't believe it. Shangya didn't look suspicious.
Xia Chu seemed to have no intention of engaging in a verbal dispute with him. He looked along the city gate into the distance, and slowly said a name as if whispering.
"Aodeng Rile."
