Yun Chi seemed to be really tired, as soon as he touched the bed, he fell asleep quickly after saying a word.
Huayan stared at him for a long while, seeing that he was gradually breathing evenly and falling asleep, she felt depressed and wanted to wake him up and ask, didn't he say that sleeping right after eating is bad for your health? what's going on
But thinking that his sleep is really good, last night he was soaked in water, and he didn't have any wet clothes. This heavy rain was so heavy, he must have been busy all day arranging disaster relief after the rain, so he didn't I'm too lazy to care about it.
So, she picked up the juanpa, gathered it into a ball, smashed out the lamp, wrapped her body in the quilt, turned her body inside and fell asleep.
The bed was huge, leaving a large space between the two of them.
In the middle of the night, Huayan was awakened by thirst, forgetting that there was someone sleeping on the outside, she pushed the quilt away in a daze and was about to get off the ground, when her hands touched a hard body, she remembered that Yunchi was in her room, she froze , The sleeping bug ran halfway.
Yun Chi woke up with a nice hoarse voice, "What's wrong?"
Seeing him wake up, Huayan withdrew her hand naturally, and instructed him bluntly, "I'm thirsty, since you're awake, go and pour me a glass of water."
Without saying a word, Yun Chi got up and walked to the table in the dark, found the fire pocket, lit the lamp, poured a glass of water, brought it back to the bed, and handed it to Hua Yan.
Huayan took it, drank it dry in one gulp, handed him the empty cup, then fell back to sleep.
Yun Chi laughed dumbfounded, and murmured, "You're so impolite."
Huayan hummed sleepily.
Yun Chi put down the cup, turned off the light with a wave, and continued to sleep.
It was a peaceful night.
In the early morning of the second day, the heavy rain that had lasted for two nights and one day finally stopped, the clouds cleared, and the sun was clear.
When Huayan woke up, it was not too late, Yun Chi was gone, she got dressed and got out of bed, Qiuyue walked in, saw her expression was normal, and asked in a low voice, "Miss, why did His Royal Highness stay here yesterday?"
Huayan said expressionlessly, "He said he was too lazy to bother. I took up half of his bed the day before yesterday and returned it to him yesterday."
Qiuyue was speechless, "I still have this."
Huayan snorted, "He made up his mind to let me marry him, so naturally he won't let go of any chance. It's just half a bed. When we're dawdling in the market, we'll grab a broken room with a bunch of rough guys. The room and the straw mats are all packed, and I can still sleep soundly, it’s nothing.”
Qiuyue nodded, leaned closer to Huayan's ear, and whispered, "Early this morning, my maidservant received a message from outside that there was a flood at the mouth of the Chuanhe River, and the dam broke again. Those we bought last year have not plowed this year. The wasteland in the area was flooded, and the dozens of shops were also flooded."
Huayan raised her eyebrows when she heard this, "It's good that the news from outside can be sent to the East Palace so quickly."
Qiuyue whispered, "Ever since I heard that His Royal Highness was going to pick up the young lady to the East Palace, the Young Master has arranged for it. The East Palace is really like a wall of iron and steel. It took three months to pry open a corner, and now it can only be passed through." It’s just a message from the kitchen purchase side. If we do something in the East Palace, it’s still not enough, it’s not as simple as hiding and giving away a cloak in Zhao Zaifu’s mansion.”
Huayan said with a smile, "This is the Eastern Palace. It is naturally like a wall of copper and iron. If anyone can pry it open, the prince Yunchi doesn't have to do it. Now even if a corner is pried open, it's already considered good. You don't need to go deeper if you spread the word." After digging, it is enough to pass a word inside and out.”
Qiuyue nodded and said in a low voice, "I don't know when the imperial court will solve the flood problem in the Chuanhekou area. These years, the Chuanhekou area has been flooded for many years, and the people have been empty. Although you bought so many fields and shops at a low price, but It’s not an option to leave it in vain like this.”
Huayan said, "Chuanhe Estuary suffers from disasters every year. The imperial court has been looking for solutions and countermeasures. Last year I heard that there was a preliminary water control plan, but it was not perfect. Another year this year, it is estimated that it will be almost the same. We cheap The fields and shops I bought did not cost much money. Once the dams and floods at the mouth of the Sichuan River are resolved, the land and shops bought at a low price can be multiplied by more than ten times. If you lose a little this year, you will lose a little , is nothing."
Qiuyue nodded, "If that's the case, Miss is very right."
After eating breakfast, Huayan said to the mother-in-law, "Where is the Cangshu Pavilion? Take me there."
Mother Fang quickly said, "It's next to Dongyuan where His Highness lives. His Highness ordered you when he left this morning, and this servant will take you there."
Huayan nodded.
Walking out the door, there are still wet water stains on the ground, and the flowers, plants, trees, green bricks and green tiles have been scrubbed, and the air is very fresh and comfortable.
Zangshu Pavilion is located independently in a courtyard with three floors
, the courtyard is guarded by the guards of the Eastern Palace, all with silver guns and swords, which makes this courtyard have a solemn and solemn atmosphere.
Inside the pavilion, the bright windows are clean, the tiles are clean, and books are lined up in rows.
The first floor is a collection of classics and history, the biographies of emperors of all dynasties, and the dossiers of various places in Southern Chu.
Each floor is equipped with tables, chairs, coffee tables, and soft couches.
Hua Yan only slipped around the first and second floors, and after reaching the third floor, she took root on the third floor, found a volume of books, took the book nest and went to the soft couch by the window, and waved her hand to Nanny Fang When everyone goes back, only Qiuyue is left here.
Nanny Fang had figured out Huayan's temperament and didn't like to be disturbed by many people, so she made a pot of tea, set out a few plates of pastries, and led them away politely.
Qiuyue found a medical book she hadn't read, and together with Huayan, each read it.
The master and the servant stayed here for a whole day, and the lunch was brought here after Mother Fang asked for instructions.
In the evening, when the sun was setting, Huayan was tired, and Qiuyue was also tired, so the two left Zangshu Pavilion.
After stepping out of the courtyard of Zangshuge, Qiuyue whispered, "Miss, have you found out that there are more medical books in Zangshuge than other books, and I have never seen some of them alone at my master's place."
Huayan nodded, "I found out, and half of them are about the southern border spells."
Qiuyue said, "And there are the most books about the Cold Worm Curse."
Huayan nodded, glanced outside the palace wall, looked away and said, "Mrs. Wuweihou and the Queen's compatriots and sisters have a deep relationship. When she was young, Mrs. Wuweihou fell under the cold worm curse in Southern Xinjiang in order to save the queen. It took a lot of effort to undo her cold worm curse. These books were either collected by the queen for her younger sister, or by Yun Chi for Su Zizhan's cold disease."
Qiuyue whispered, "Although His Royal Highness and Young Master Zizhan do not get along with each other when they meet, they have never broken their faces in private these years." After saying that, she said worriedly, "Miss, you don't like His Royal Highness, but you like him. Kill the son and kill the son. If it is because you make them turn against each other"
Huayan laughed when she heard the words, and tapped Qiuyue's forehead with her hand, "Stupid Ayue, do you think of me as a confidante, your young lady? You really think highly of me."
Qiuyue covered her forehead and pouted, "This servant has always admired Miss very much."
Hua Yan's brows and eyes were almost filled with a smile, and she shook her head, "Yun Chi and Su Zi will not turn against each other. The queen and Mrs. Wu Weihou have dying words. They are the closest people in this world. I'm afraid that Yun Chi's relationship with the Emperor, Empress Dowager, and Seventh Princess is much deeper than that of Su Zizhan's father."
Qiuyue whispered, "Since ancient times, brothers have turned against each other for the sake of women. How can this be said, how can Miss Zhun be so sure?"
Hua Yan smiled and said, "I couldn't be sure before, since I used Su Zizhan's territory to make trouble in Chunhongguan the night before, and Yun Chi took me away in front of him, although he was smart after I pushed Liu Fuxiang into the water in Zhao Zaifu's mansion The ground understood my intentions, but did not take any action to stop me, so I was sure that although the words between them were swords and swords, they would not really turn against each other, and probably never would." After finishing speaking, he tapped Qiuyue's forehead again, "Your lady In their hearts, I will not be as important as the late queen and Mrs. Wuweihou, and they will abide by the last wishes of the queen and Mrs. Wuweihou in their entire lives."
Qiuyue sighed, "What can you do, miss? His Royal Highness has a decree to marry him, and he will never let it go. In this way, even if Mr. Zizhan knows that you like him, he will not fight. Then you"
Huayan smiled, "I use Shunfang Casino, Chunhongguan, and maybe one day I will use other things under his name, because in Southern Chu, only his territory and things can be used to deal with Yun If you fight against it late, you won't harm Chi Yu. But use it, it's just borrowing territory and things, but you will never use him as a person."
Qiuyue was puzzled, "The servant does not understand."
Huayan smiled and said, "This marriage contract is about me and Yunchi, and Yunchi and I have broken the marriage contract. I wanted to pull Suzi into the water, and borrow his power to lend him the whole person, but I didn't expect If you fell in love with him because of him, that's another matter."
Qiuyue seems to understand, but she doesn't quite understand.
Huayan smiled, and tapped her forehead again, "Stupid Ayue, if you like one, how can you bear to destroy the things he cares about? What's more, the queen and Mrs. Wuwei Hou's sisters are very affectionate. I respect them very much. I don't want them to be uneasy So, I like Su Zizhan, it’s my own business, it’s the best thing for him to like me, it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t like me. The dissolution of the engagement is also my own business, and it has nothing to do with him. I don’t like him, so do I. If he wants to break off the engagement, I don't need him to break up with Yun Chi. If I say this, you will understand."
Qiuyue finally got it right and nodded heavily, "I understand."
