The cold wind was blowing before, and the room in the inn was not as warm as the palace. Xu Changan always felt that his body might be uncomfortable the next day, but he didn't expect that after a sleep, he was in good spirits and had no physical discomfort at all. sense.
Thinking of the time before, Xiao Qingyan took the medicine and told him that it was a good thing to recuperate the body. Later, because of the body's reaction, he didn't take Xiao Qingyan's words to heart at that time. Now that he thinks about the medicine, although it has such a terrible reaction, it has no effect on the body. It's really good, his body seems to be really much better.
"Waking up in a daze in the morning?" When he woke up early in the morning and saw the people around him in a daze, Xiao Qingyan reached out and lifted the quilt, reminding him by the way that he had woken up and should return to his senses.
"It's nothing, I'm just thinking about when we can get to Fengzhou." Xu Changan knew how far Fengzhou was from the capital, but he didn't know how long it would take to get there. When will it arrive.
"What's the hurry? Didn't you wait for so many years? Do you still care about the extra ten days?" Xiao Qingyan knew more or less about Xu Changan's family. He believed that Xu Changan's mother wanted to be forgiven from the family, especially After so many years of cold treatment by Xu Yongnian, he wanted to go back even more. Xu Changan has a deep relationship with his mother, and he still knows a little bit of what his mother desires. It is normal for him to be anxious to return to his grandfather's house now.
Xiao Qingyan himself didn't know why his father suddenly let him leave the capital. He didn't plan to let him go so quickly. How could he know that his princess wanted to go back to his grandfather's house. What excuse did the emperor find to let himself leave the capital
Xu Changan didn't know that he had finally waited for the opportunity and was so disrupted, just because of what Xiao Qingyan said to him, he was a little touched. Those things in his family, no matter how humiliating Xiao Qingyan, already knew clearly. But he didn't look down on himself at all, on the contrary, he knew that what he thought in his heart would also be considered for himself, maybe he shouldn't think so much now.
He and Xiao Qingyan are both men, so the two of them can be considered as delaying each other. He is a prince and his time and feelings are naturally much more precious than himself, so why should he worry about other things? Anyway, they still have a long time, wait until the day when they can no longer go on.
"His Royal Highness, I once read a miscellaneous book, which said that this forest city is a flower city. In early spring, all kinds of flowers are vying to bloom. When the flowers bloom, the whole city seems to be submerged in the sea of flowers. It's very beautiful. And because of the flowers here, all kinds of flower-based cakes here are also very famous, you should be familiar with Baihua Cake, right?" Baihua Cake is the most famous cake in Lincheng, and it also Will pay tribute to the royal family, Xiao Qingyan, as a prince, should not be unfamiliar.
In his heart, he decided not to think about those messy things. Xu Changan planned to take this trip as a trip with Xiao Qingyan. If you encounter beautiful and delicious food on the way, please enjoy it. It is better to have good memories in your heart than to look back on the past. No nostalgia is better.
"Of course I know. So, do you want to eat the freshest Hundred Flower Cake?"
"think!"
"Then let's get up."
It is now the end of the first month, and even if there is still a little bit of the cold winter's breath, the shadow of early spring is thicker. I thought that there would definitely be many hawker shops selling fresh cakes on Lincheng Street, but the two of them strolled around for a while without seeing the shadow of the rumored flower cake.
"Isn't it the season for flowers yet?"
"I haven't been there yet. It's just that the weather is abnormal this year. In previous years, the apricots, plums, and cherries would be blooming."
"Old man, did you just say that the weather didn't arrive this year?" Xu Changan knew that there would be leap years in some years, and the climate of such years would naturally have some influence. Could it be a leap year this year
"Yeah, the first wave of spring rain came just after the New Year's Eve, but this year's first month is coming to an end. God hasn't made a sound yet. I have lived for decades, I have only seen it when I was in my teens. In such a year, this day looks like an early dry day, and this year will be difficult." Xu Changan could understand what the street vendor said, but he couldn't imagine it. Since he was born, Da Xiao has been in good weather every year. He has never seen the years described by this old man, and he has no way of imagining that if he succeeds this year, as the old man said, they will face the Great Xiao Dynasty. what the situation will be.
"Let's just go shopping and buy some things for the road." Xiao Qingyan, as a prince, understands what the old man said better than Xu Changan. If it is true, then the father does not know what the old man said. How much more white hair.
Because of this accident, in the following days, Xiao Qingyan paid special attention to the local weather, but the places they visited in succession were similar to that of Lincheng, and Xiao Qingyan couldn't let go of his hanging heart.
Like Xiao Qingyan, the memorials that came from all over today also made the emperor distressed. Although everything is just conjecture now, if it doesn't rain again this day, this kind of seed can't fall to the ground, how can there be any harvest in the future? How can these thousands of people live in peace
"Your Majesty, you've been working too hard recently. The concubine personally cooked ginseng for you... Ah, I don't know which sister is so considerate, and has already brought ginseng soup to the emperor." Then he was about to put down the soup cup in his hand. , served it to the emperor by himself, and when he looked up, he saw that there was already a jade bowl with a little residual soup left on the emperor's table.
Afterwards, the soup cup in her hand did not know whether to advance or retreat, and she was very angry. These days, she has been keeping people staring at Concubine Zhou, and there has been no movement there. Which bitch dares to come to please and seduce the emperor? !
"How much trouble you are, but my body is not weak enough to need all day nourishment. Now this God's face is indistinguishable, and I don't know when this life-saving rain will come back, I am preparing to reduce various expenses and save money in the palace. Various expenses. This matter is left to you to handle, you can go down first."
"Yes, the concubine knows." Seeing that the emperor's face was really bad, she didn't want to stay and cause trouble in the future. If she accidentally provokes the emperor, she would be angry for nothing.
After walking out of the door, he was not reconciled, and then he asked the eunuch at the door which person from the palace brought things to the emperor. The little eunuch's answer made him relieved. Good is good.
Xiao Qingyue has been very bored recently, and she managed to reconcile with his father and move freely, but she couldn't find a place to go. Her elder brother went to the battlefield, the elder brother went out with the elder sister-in-law again, and the father, mother, concubine and concubine in the palace kept urging her to marry. comfortable.
"His Royal Highness, is it going to rain today?" Xu Changan knew a little about Xiao Qingyan's worries these days, so now that the wind and rain were about to come, he was particularly happy.
"Hope it. It's getting late. Let's find a place to rest. Let's stay overnight." Before they set off, Xiao Qingyan had already thought about the situation they would encounter, so even now He is not worried about sleeping in the wilderness at night.
There are tents and quilts on the carriages, find a suitable place to set up the tents, and they can rest on the spot.
After Xiao Qingyan made the decision to stop the carriage, the two brothers of the Wu family found a suitable place to set up a tent, while Xu Changan began to prepare their meals for a few nights.
Every time they passed through the town, they would buy enough food and drinks. Tonight, because he was sleeping outside, Xiao Qingyan was afraid that Xu Changan would feel cold at night, so he asked him to drink some wine to warm up.
"If you can't drink, then you can be a little less peaceful. It's enough to feel warm." Xiao Qingyan knows Xu Changan's alcohol capacity. He still remembers the appearance of Xu Changan when he was drunk. Speaking of which, he quite liked his appearance, why not ... Now that you've had it, just drink it and enjoy it.
"His Royal Highness, this thing is really strange. When I first drank it, I felt that my throat was choking on it, but it tasted good when I drank it, and the more I drank, the more I wanted to drink it! It's like, like... like you. Yes, in the beginning..."
"Wuren Wuyi, it's getting late, you have to go on your way tomorrow, you should go to rest first." Feeling that what the princess was going to say next must be something she didn't want outsiders to hear, Xiao Qingyan quickly pulled the person into her arms and leaned against her. , and then let the two brothers beside him retreat.
The two brothers in the Wu family looked at each other tacitly, then restrained the smile in their hearts and quickly turned around and burrowed into their tent not far away, but when they returned to the tent, they could no longer hold back the smile that was already on their lips.
"Brother, I'm not mistaken, the prince is very good to the princess, we were worried for nothing a few days ago." Everyone knows that the prince and the princess are not willing to come out, but along the way, no one will be better than these two. The brother knew better whether the prince came out with the princess voluntarily.
After calling people to sleep, Xiao Qingyan also hugged the drunk who was already leaning on them and put them into their tent.
As soon as he got to the bed that had been laid, Xu Changan became restless with both hands, and he was fumbling around, not knowing what to look for.
"What are you looking for?"
"Xiao Qingyan..." Xu Changan didn't think he was drunk at all, he only knew that he was in the wilderness now, and he was afraid. He wanted to reach out and touch Xiao Qingyan's head and lean on Xiao Qingyan. Just beside him so he won't be afraid.
He grabbed the hand that covered the quilt for him, Xu Changan made sure that Xiao Qingyan was by his side, finally felt at ease, and was ready to sleep, but at this time Xiao Qingyan wouldn't let him sleep.
"Chang'an, Chang'an, don't sleep yet. What you just wanted to say, you haven't finished yet. I want to hear it. Can you tell me more about it?" Xiao Qingyan took advantage of the situation and fell asleep next to the person, wanting to let her princess take the After he finished speaking, he continued to speak. Unfortunately, the person who was already confused could still remember what he wanted to say. He only had one thought in his mind now, that was sleeping there.
"Chang'an? Chang'an? Falling asleep so soon!" Thinking of the last time it seemed like this was the case, after getting drunk, he went straight to sleep after talking nonsense.
"Hey, go to sleep." Xiao Qingyan thought, after wrapping his arms around himself and preparing to sleep, does he have to prepare another chance to get him drunk
