The night before the appointment at Tianyan Temple, Xia Chu jumped down from the wall with ease. Zi Luo had been waiting there for a long time. After seeing him, she bowed respectfully: "The master has returned."
Xia Chu glanced at her: "He came back early today."
Zi Luo didn't answer his words. Xia Chu shrugged and walked towards Yue Fengwan's room. When Qi Liu saw him coming, he greeted his colleagues in the room respectfully, and then opened the door for him.
Xia Chu walked straight in, and as soon as he walked in, he ran into a pair of beautiful blue eyes. Today's peach blossom eyes were actually full of charm and coquettishness, looking increasingly clear but bottomless.
Yue Fengwan's complexion is as crystal clear as jade, and her long dark black hair hangs down on her shoulders, glowing with a faint light. He was tall and tall, standing there with an indescribable grace and elegance, as if he were a heavenly being, and as if he had been waiting for him for a long time.
Yue Feng curled her lips into a crescent-shaped arc and waved to him, and Xia Chu walked over involuntarily.
Maybe his temperament today is really gentle and harmless, and that smile seems to be a little gentle in Xia Chu's eyes
He leaned over and asked, "How are the preparations?"
"What are you preparing for?" Yue Fengwan seemed to be very satisfied with him coming over so meekly. He put his big hand on his head but just gently arranged his hair and bun. He seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then he laughed to himself and took the lead. Followed him towards the table.
At the beginning of Xia, Monk Zhang Er was confused by his repeated actions, but the Yue Fengwan at the moment was actually much better than that crazy Yue Fengwan, so he didn't bother to think about why his attitude changed, so he asked : "Of course it's poison. Have you decided what kind of poison to use?"
Yue Fengwan raised his eyebrows, sneered, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes: "Do you still need to prepare for this?"
Xia Chu laughed awkwardly, thinking about it, this poisoning is easy for Yue Fengwan, so there is no need to prepare: "I will pretend to go to Tianyan Temple tomorrow. If you need help, send someone to inform me."
Yue Fengwan fiddled with the flower pieces in the wooden jar and placed them in the pot, saying in a joking tone: "Are they gone?"
Xia Chu suddenly looked shy, as if he had seen through it at a glance. Indeed, the help he just said was a form of greeting. She originally thought that if the matter was exposed, it would be able to cover his escape.
Of course, for Yue Fengwan, there is probably no possibility of such exposure.
Therefore, Xia Chu just exchanged pleasantries, but what he really wanted to say was: "After you have finished asking about Concubine Li, can you also ask me to ask about it later..."
The pot of water is boiling, and the fragrance of flowers is overflowing.
Yue Feng refused to answer and asked, "Can you smell what kind of flower it is?"
Xia Chu wiped the smell with her hands, took a careful sniff and replied, "Platycodon?"
Yue Feng rolled her cheeks slightly red, pursed her lips, closed her eyes, and nodded. The sudden appearance of such a cute expression on her beautiful face was enough to make people breathless.
He poured a cup of scented tea with platycodon floating in it, and stared at the platycodon in the tea. His voice was low and intoxicating, with a unique magnetism: "Platycodon is also called bell flower in the Western Regions. Do you know its flower language?"
Xia Chu frowned, shook his head suspiciously, and raised his chin to signal him.
Yuefeng held his eyes and said softly: "I don't admire prosperity, but I am your queen."
When Xia Chu heard this, he jumped up again and watched as the scented tea he handed over was withdrawn without being accepted.
"I, I'm going back first. I'll see you tomorrow. Anyway, I'll just take it as your promise!" Xia Chu finished the sentence while stumbling towards the door.
Yue Feng Tuan held up the cup and laughed to herself as she looked at his flustered figure. For some reason, Xia Chu always ran away, but Yue Feng Tuan was used to it.
But he didn't even take the cup of tea in his hand.
It's really a pity.
However, there is no rush...
Yue Feng curled up the corners of her lips into a smile and tasted the tea in her cup.
When Xia Chu left the room, he even used Qinggong, and flew back to the Hou Mansion on grass branches and leaves. When he returned to his own room, he still had a look of shock.
Xia Chu patted his face. Was he just being sentimental, or was Yue Fengwan really pouring out his heart to him just now
Although Yue Fengwan would say similar words from the first time they met, Xia Chu never took him seriously because in the past, his words were always filled with jokes and ridicule.
But just now, it was different...
Xia Chu took off the Wan Yue Ling from his waist and rubbed it in his hand. This guy wouldn't take that fake marriage contract seriously...
That night, Xia Chu lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep, constantly affirming and rejecting whether he was just being sentimental...
Therefore, when he opened his eyes the next day, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and he didn't even bother to eat lunch. Taking advantage of Li Xinlan's break in washing and changing clothes for him, he grabbed a few snacks and stuffed them into his mouth to give him a little cushion. His stomach rushed to the palace in a hurry.
Xiao Muhong knew that Xia Chu was coming to the palace to pick her up today, so she had already dressed up and went to ask Concubine Qi for her opinion: "Concubine, do you think I look good in this outfit?"
Xiao Muhong is only fourteen months old. She has grown taller and her figure has become more exquisite. Her small face is now like a flower, with a small and delicate nose, clear and penetrating eyes, and she is dressed in a white fox coat. She wears a fur coat, a fiery red flame brocade skirt inlaid with pearls, a red agate necklace around her neck, and a strand of black silk hanging on her chest, making her skin white, tender and translucent.
At this time, with a sweet smile on her face, she spun around in a circle for Concubine Qi to take a good look at.
Concubine Qi knew that Xia Chu would come to the palace today to pick her up for an outing. Seeing her so happy, she smiled with doting on her face and said, "We Honghong are born with beautiful faces, so naturally we look good no matter what we wear."
Xiao Muhong's smile became brighter and brighter, and she walked forward and took Concubine Qi's arm: "That's also the good appearance inherited from my mother's concubine."
Concubine Qi was so happy that she coaxed her. With a loving face on her face, she stroked her smooth hair and asked casually: "Where will Chu'er take you to play and make you happy like this?"
Xiao Muhong's eyes became brighter and brighter: "They said they would take me to Tianyan Temple, the same temple where my father would go to worship in previous years. I haven't been there yet, so I just want to see it."
Concubine Qi paused her hands and frowned slightly: "When did you decide on the place?"
Xiao Muhong did not notice the subtle change in Concubine Qi's mood, and replied smoothly: "The last time he came to the palace to play with me, he promised me when he lost."
Concubine Qi counted the days, but before Concubine Li spoke, her eyebrows immediately relaxed. No wonder she thought about it too much. Today happened to be the day when Concubine Li left the palace to pray for blessings at Tianyan Temple.
Therefore, when she just heard Xiao Muhong mentioned that Xia Chu was going to take her to Tianyan Temple to play, she couldn't help but think a little more...
