Listening to her relaxed tone, it seemed that from the moment she got the divorce letter, she was completely relieved, she didn't avoid him anymore, and asked him to stay a little longer.
Jiang Xuanjin pursed her lips, and squeezed her cuffs tighter and tighter.
Do you want him to stay and watch the moat flow, or do you want him to stay and watch her wedding with Lu Jingxing? It's good that he left, but if he was there to watch, he couldn't guarantee what he would do.
Is this a form of revenge
The coolness seeped in from the window, making him stiff from the cold, but the person in front of him seemed to have noticed something, opened the window and looked, and exclaimed "Wow".
Snowing!
In the first-tier city that hadn't seen rain or snow for many years, fine snow fell, and the crystal white snow fell on the window sill. She squeezed her sleeves to catch it, and turned her head to show him with a smile: "Look!"
In a trance, Jiang Xuanjin felt as if he had returned to the main building of Moju, and the separation and tearing for so long was just a nightmare, when he woke up. She was still by his side, laughing and making noises, wanting to watch the deep winter snow scene with him.
He stretched out his fingertips in a daze, and lightly touched the bright white on her sleeve, but when he touched it, the tiny bits of white melted away.
The eyelashes trembled, Jiang Xuanjin pursed her lips, and the ink in her eyes welled up.
You can't touch it, it's gone if you touch it.
Withdrawing his hands behind his back, he tensed his jaw, and wanted to say coldly, "Your Highness, please come back", but the words were already on his lips. After thinking about it, he swallowed them.
He has a very long rest of his life to be reserved slowly, right now, why not pamper himself a little more
Li Huaiyu didn't seem to be afraid of the cold, standing by the window for a long time to pick up the snow still felt that it was not enough, and wanted to climb up to the soft couch next to her so that she could stretch her hands farther.
Jiang Xuanjin endured it again and again, but still couldn't hold back, stepped forward and held her down: "Don't move!"
Huaiyu raised her eyebrows, turned her head and said with a smile: "What? Are you afraid that I'll be hurt? Didn't you say he was the shopkeeper Lu's child? Why are you panicking?"
With a stiff face, Jiang Xuanjin said in a cold voice: "There is a short chair on the soft couch with many water chestnuts. If His Highness is injured, shopkeeper Lu will definitely blame me."
"It's okay." Huaiyu waved his hand casually, "He can't do anything to you."
"...Even if he's not good, there's Jiuwu, and Chijin. And you, a man from the Princess Mansion, I can't afford to offend you."
"Your Majesty is modest." With apricot eyes, Huaiyu said jokingly, "You are really tempted, let alone my princess mansion, I can't keep the entire first-tier city."
After speaking, we must continue to move.
However, as soon as his knees touched the soft couch, a green amber sleeve robe suddenly appeared in front of him.
Jiang Xuanjin's movements were very restrained, with his arms across her collarbone, pinched her shoulders, and pulled her back.
With a smile on his lips, Li Dahou took a few steps back and pressed against his chest.
A slight vibration came from the vest, and she could hear the sound of him inhaling lightly, which disappeared after a while, and she stood up straight and put her hands down.
"Is Your Highness not standing still?"
"Yeah." Huaiyu sighed, "Ever since my stomach got big, my feet started to swell. My back hurts every day, and I often can't stand steadily."
If Qingsi heard this, she would definitely vomit blood. Still can't stand still? Who last time ran faster than a rabbit down the street? !
Jiang Xuanjin listened, but her jaw clenched, she looked down at her, and wanted to reach out to help her, but she didn't know where to put her hand.
The person in front of him suddenly said "Ah", his heart skipped a beat, and he frowned: "Why?"
Holding her stomach in her arms, she sat on the soft couch with a strange expression, frowning and remaining silent.
"Speak!" Jiang Xuanjin stood in front of her with a calm expression, but when he spoke, the fear in his tone could not be hidden.
Huaiyu raised her head slowly, and pointed to her belly.
Jiang Xuanjin didn't care too much, and put his hand up to explore.
This stomach seemed to be much stronger than he imagined, heavy and bulging, and when he touched it, the contents inside moved a little, and the small touch just fell on the palm of his hand.
Jiang Xuanjin was startled, hurriedly withdrew her hand, and said calmly: "I'll ask Chengxu to pass on a doctor."
"Hey, no need." Huaiyu said, looking back to normal, "It's the fetal movement, it's normal."
What are you doing normally? ! Jiang Xuanjin turned her head and stared at her.
Li Huaiyu said with a playful smile: "I am very scared every time the fetus moves. I am afraid that it will burst out of my stomach suddenly."
This feeling of fear had to be experienced by him, so that she could feel at ease.
Jiang Xuanjin was silent, and after a while, he let out a breath slowly.
Injustice.
The urgent letter from Babaili was sent back to the main city of Ziyang in less than a day. Lu Qing was dug out from the bed, thinking that something big had happened, so he hurriedly took the letter and opened it.
However, after reading the letter, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but slammed the letter on the ground: "It takes 800 miles to rush a doctor girl? Does he really think he's exhausted?"
The subordinates reported weakly: "Your Majesty is using a Maxima, and he didn't die from exhaustion."
Lu Qing turned coldly, and his subordinates immediately fell silent.
"Let that man named Qi Jin set off today, find some escorts, and drive there on horseback."
"yes."
After finishing the order, Lu Qing paced back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back, so angry that he almost smashed the floor tiles, while turning around, he read: "Remind me every day, if you don't come back every day, it's fine if you don't come back, it seems like you're going to be on the front line It’s like Cheng’an’s family, and he’s not happy to ask him to transfer the first-tier city directly to Ziyang, I don’t know what he’s thinking!”
"If he is busy, I won't be busy? I still want to marry a wife, and I am so busy that I can't even get out of the gate of the county guard's mansion. Who is Lord Ziyang!"
The silent subordinate couldn't help but speak again: "Your Majesty has prepared a lot of portraits of young ladies from aristocratic families for you, and they are all in your study."
Lu Qing stared: "What's the use of putting a portrait? He just put a beauty on me!"
The subordinate was silent, thinking that you are just screaming so much, you are such a beauty, with your temperament, you must not even dare to enter the door.
However, he was still very considerate, and when Doctor Qi Jin left, he asked someone to bring Mr. Lu's words to the Lord.
Qi Jin got on the horse tremblingly, feeling very excited.
Counting the days, Madam's body should be six months old. She has not received any news before, and she has already prepared for the worst. Now the king suddenly summoned her.
There are medical girls everywhere, if you have to give a reason to let her go, it is that your majesty knew about his wife's pregnancy and asked her to go and question her.
It is also good to ask the guilt! Qi Jin thought with red eyes, as long as the king can reconcile the old relationship with his wife, she will be fined even if she is punished.
However, with the temperament of the king, knowing that he has a child, maybe he only cares about being happy, and even saves punishing her!
Thinking optimistically, Qi Jin rode the horse with the guards and hurried on the road quickly.
After a light snow fell in the first-tier city, the water flow in the moat was getting bigger and bigger. The people stood on the bank of the river and cheered, and those who couldn't bear it would get down and scoop water with buckets.
"It's saved, our field is saved!"
"Give me a hand, come here, fetch water!"
"Water, a lot of water!"
There were more and more people by the river, and some even jumped down directly. The shouts of joy spread from the direction of the city gate to the whole city, and the first-tier city finally came alive.
Huaiyu stood on the top of the city tower and watched with a smile, and Wu Wu and others stood beside her and reported: "Construction of the Qulin River Canal has started, and when the construction is completed, the remaining tributaries in the three counties of Dongping will be cut off. Even if there is little rain in the first-tier cities , and there will be no more severe drought.”
"Very good." Huaiyu nodded, and was about to say something more, when he saw a group of people gathered around the city tower, each of them holding a plate in their hands, there were corn buns and buns in the plate, as if they wanted to send it up, but were stopped by the guards up. Still shouting loudly:
"Master Wu! Master Wu!"
"Miss Xu, we are here to give a thank you gift!"
"Master Commander, let us go up!"
Huaiyu understood, looked at the people around him and said with a smile: "Now you are also good officials who are loved and loved by others. The kindness of the people is what matters. Go ahead, it doesn't count that you are taking bribes."
The elders scratched their heads in embarrassment, and Xu Chuniong saw that there was a grandma standing unsteadily, so she quickly took the lead to meet her.
Huaiyu took a look and felt that this picture was really beautiful. This is the treatment that a good person should have. Instead of being scolded by others, he was treated like his own child by the people. Made it, put more sugar on purpose!"
Huaiyu withdrew her gaze, stood alone on the tower, and continued to look at the river below, with a little bit of envy in her eyes.
She could help them, but she couldn't help herself. In the eyes of the common people, she was still the princess Danyang who did all kinds of evil.
The cold wind blew up and messed up her temple hair, Huaiyu stretched out her hand and pushed her hair away behind her ear, thinking very generously, it doesn't matter, she has lived arrogance and fearlessness for four years, and she will always have to pay the price.
Irregular footsteps sounded from the side, and Li Huaiyu thought someone had come back, so she didn't turn her head.
However, a moment later, a pair of old hands held a plate of steamed bread and handed it to her side.
Heart skipped a beat, Huaiyu turned around abruptly.
Grandma's face had deep creases, and she couldn't see her eyes when she smiled. She had lost a lot of teeth, and she couldn't speak clearly, but Huaiyu could still hear her.
She said: "Your Highness, my son and daughter-in-law are carrying water to irrigate the ground, so let me thank you."
Blinking, blinking again, Huaiyu looked at the cornbread on the plate, her throat tightened, and she smiled again: "Old man, you can give it to whoever you want, don't listen to them and give it to me."
Grandma was startled, and asked her, "Are you the eldest princess?"
The guard next to him frowned and wanted to step forward to blame her for being rude, but Li Huaiyu stopped him with his hand and nodded slowly to her.
"That's for you." Grandma smiled, showing her gums, "You are a good person."
A plate full of steamed buns was stuffed into her hands, Huaiyu's eyes were full of confusion, even looked down at Jiuwu, suspecting that they specially invited them here to make her happy.
However, the grandmother said: "I came here from Jiangxi more than two years ago. You saved my family once, and this is the second time."
In the six years of Daxing's drought in Jiangxi, the plague spread to seven counties, and it was about to sweep across the entire Jiangxi with an unstoppable force. If the eldest princess hadn't acted decisively to seal the city, the disease of ineffective medicine would surely kill more people.
Grandma doesn't understand court disputes, she only knows that their family was saved because of the eldest princess.
And this time, thanks to the eldest princess, the first-tier cities that have been drought for many years now have water. They can irrigate the land, grow food, and continue to live.
A plate of steamed bread, equivalent to a family's daily ration, she brought it all, wiping her hands on the patched apron, looking a little cramped.
Li Huaiyu was stunned for a while, then reached out to pick up a cornbread and took a bite.
The dry taste was far inferior to Chi Jin's craftsmanship, but she swallowed it down and took another bite.
"Your Highness... Your Highness?" The guard next to him wanted to persuade, Huaiyu shook his head, and ate a big cornbread, and finally said to the grandma holding the plate: "I will finish it."
Grandma smiled and nodded repeatedly.
Li Huaiyu asked, "Where is your home?"
"Not far, just in the western suburbs." Grandma pointed, "I should go back too."
Looking in that direction, Huaiyu nodded, and motioned to the guard next to him. The latter understood, helped her grandma down the tower, and brought a few bags of rice with her. Send them back to her home together.
When Jiang Xuanjin came up, he saw Li Huaiyu holding a plate of cornbread in a daze.
He was puzzled, and walked over to have a look. The plate was rough, and the cornbread was also rough, but there were crumbs on her fingers, obviously she had already eaten one.
"Your Highness?"
Hearing his voice, the person in front of him raised his head, his eyes were as bright as stars.
Like a child, she raised the plate in her hand and showed it to him with wide eyes: "This is given to me by a grandma!"
Jiang Xuanjin didn't understand. She quickly pointed to the group of people who were still surrounded by the common people, then pointed to the plate in her hand, grinned and said, "I have it too!"
Slightly startled, Jiang Xuanjin lowered his eyes: "You can be happy like this with a plate of corn bread."
"You don't understand!" Huai Yuzhi couldn't stop laughing, his eyes were full of brilliance, "She said I'm a good person!"
For so long, she has been living in the intrigue of the court, she is used to hearing the abuse from the officials and the people, and also the comfort from the people around her. It was the first time someone praised her so sincerely and plainly.
Someone with a high reputation like Jiang Xuanjin. It must be normal to respect and love people. Unlike her, who waited for eight years for such a plate of corn bread.
Cheng Xu behind frowned, hesitated to speak.
How could the master not understand? If he didn't understand, he wouldn't have tried his best to bring her back to the current situation.
"I don't understand." Jiang Xuanjin answered her calmly, with a calm expression.
Li Huaiyu was in a good mood, and asked with a smile, "Would you like to follow me down to have a look? Let's talk about Danyang and Ziyang by the way?"
"No." He refused without thinking.
However, after two sticks of incense, a carriage slowly moved along the moat, inside the carriage was covered with thick bedding, Huaiyu nestled in the corner, put a pillow on the back of her waist, and breathed out comfortably.
Ziyang Jun in front of him knelt down on the soft quilt in disgust, his body was still upright.
"Aren't you tired?" Huaiyu raised his eyebrows, "This car is just for lying down, it's uncomfortable to sit on."
"Your Highness has something to say." He said coldly.
Li Huaiyu smiled lightly, looked at him with his chin propped up, and said: "Lu Ji is supplying goods to the first-tier cities, and Danyang's border city has insufficient supplies, and some have to be transported from Ziyang's border city. But Ziyang is very strict with Danyang, and things can't be shipped." For the city gate, please allow me your convenience."
Ride with him just to plead for Lu Jingxing
Heart tightened, Jiang Xuanjin sneered: "What if I can't do it?"
With a soft snort, Huaiyu said imposingly: "If you can't do it, it's convenient! Then I will!"
Moved and moved, moved to his side, stretched out his hand to hook his fingers, Li Huaiyu smiled: "Then I beg you more."
The tone that softened suddenly, like a pair of gentle hands, supported his sinking heart.
There was severe pain in the chest, Jiang Xuanjin stared at her holding his hand, remained silent for a long time, and then spoke in a hoarse voice: "Aren't you afraid that Lu Jingxing will get angry if you do this?"
Huaiyu thought about it seriously, then shook his head: "He won't be angry."
"That's right." Jiang Xuanjin nodded, "For so many years, he can always be by your side, there is always something special about him."
Isn't that right? Lu Jingxing's ability to make money is indeed extraordinary.
Huaiyu secretly smiled. Seeing how he wanted to get rid of her but couldn't bear it, she stretched out her hand and got into his fingers, interlocking his fingers like a long, long time ago.
Jiang Xuanjin's face was ugly: "Your Highness."
"Um?"
Seemingly finding it difficult to speak, Jiang Xuanjin stared at her hand.
Huaiyu looked dignified and upright: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
Nothing is right here! Didn't you ask for a divorce letter? Aren't they going to marry Lu Jingxing? Why are you so close to him all of a sudden
Feeling that she was teasing him, Jiang Xuanjin was very annoyed, her thin lips were pursed tightly, and the center of her brows was also drawn together.
"Is it fun?" he asked.
Huaiyu nodded with a smile, and clasped his hands even tighter: "It's fun."
"Stop!" He yelled.
The horse outside neighed. Huaiyu leaned forward and immediately let out an "Aiya".
Jiang Xuanjin wanted to get up and get out of the car, but when she heard the movement, she froze for a moment, then turned her head and asked, "What's wrong?"
Moaning and hugging his stomach, Li Huaiyu said: "It's uncomfortable."
The car dealership is by the river, not in front of the village or behind the shop, Jiang Xuanjin gritted his teeth and told Chengxu: "Go back to the princess mansion!"
"Hey, no need." Holding his hand, Huaiyu smiled, "Just keep walking."
Jiang Xuanjin: "..."
Sitting back to his original position, he looked at her in silence for a long time, and rubbed the center of his brows quite tiredly: "Can't Your Highness let me go?"
Since they were destined not to be together, why did they still tease him
Li Huaiyu moved the hand he was holding with him, and sighed: "Your Majesty, I am not strong at all. If you don't like it, you can break free."
Just relying on him not being able to break free, that's why you came to play such a trick with him? Jiang Xuanjin laughed back angrily: "Forget it, Your Highness's request, I just complied."
"Thank you!" Huai Yu laughed, but still didn't let go of his hand.
What is this person thinking? Jiang Xuanjin didn't understand.
According to the family motto of the Jiang family, those who already have a husband but get close to others, according to the rules, they will be tattooed on their foreheads and expelled from the house. He knew very well that such behavior violated ethics and rules, and if he didn't break free, he would be considered the same crime.
But by coincidence, he didn't move.
The smile on Li Huaiyu's face grew bigger and bigger, a pair of almond eyes looked at him, like a mouse that had successfully stolen fish, one couldn't hold it back, and laughed out loud.
