Yang Zai'en entered the tent and listened to the instructions. He secretly glanced at the princess and Zhao Zhongfang who were still beside the medicine furnace, then responded, lowered his head and left the tent, and hurried to tell someone else.
"Hao'er, you must be tired after all the hard work today. Go and take a rest."
After the palace supervisor left, Cui Daosi saw the emperor suddenly turn to the princess and give her this instruction. His face, which had been gloomy just now, then turned kind and gentle.
Cui Daosi secretly hoped that the princess could stay. She seemed to be sitting still and unwilling to leave, but she could not resist the emperor's repeated urging. He first called the palace servants waiting outside in a loud voice, and then ordered Zhao Zhongfang to hand over the matter of boiling medicine and escort the princess back to her tent to sleep.
Zhao Zhongfang agreed and was about to ask someone to take care of the medicine when he saw that the princess had already stood up lazily.
"Zhao Ban Dang should stay and serve His Majesty. When the medicine is ready, remember to urge His Majesty to drink it while it's hot. I will go back by myself."
Zhao Zhongfang exchanged a glance with her and nodded, "I obey your command. Princess, go ahead and rest assured."
"Give the medicine here to this old servant." The old palace eunuch said again in a low voice.
Xuyu nodded, stood up and walked to the emperor's couch, and saw that the only copy of the poem had been picked out and placed on the imperial desk. It was very eye-catching.
"Go and rest!"
The emperor immediately pretended to take a closer look, reached out and picked it up, then urged him again.
Aye's behavior seemed as if he was worried that she would steal the manuscript and then destroy it.
Xuyu smiled and said, "My daughter, I'll take my leave."
"After you meet someone, remember to go to bed early. I know that you are always generous and open-minded. I don't think you will get angry over such a thing. If you get angry and damage the dragon's body, it will be not worth it."
She said again.
Cui Daosi had already retreated to the corner of the tent, not daring to raise his eyes, but bowed his head deeply, respectfully seeing the princess off. Suddenly, he heard the princess' words of consolation to the emperor. He raised his eyes secretly and saw the emperor looking at the princess and nodding with a smile. She then turned around and walked out of the tent, coming towards him. Cui Daosi hurriedly bowed his head again.
Xuyu walked out of the imperial tent, facing the night wind blowing in her face, and looked around.
The Cangshan hunting ground is extremely large, and because there has not been such a large-scale hunting activity for many years, the vegetation is extremely lush. In some places, the weeds are so high that even horses will be buried if they step in. For the safety of the camp, the location of this garrison was naturally determined after careful prior survey.
The camp was backed by a high hill, and the tents of the entourage were scattered around the emperor's tent like stars surrounding the moon. Directly in front of the tent was a large plain suitable for grazing horses and hunting. Slowly, the terrain changed into gently undulating ponds, and then, at the end of the sight, there were endless hills and deep forests.
At this moment tonight, although there were still shadows of bonfires in the distance and on the edge of the camp, most of the officials who had accompanied them had already returned to their tents to rest, and the camp was very quiet. Especially near the imperial tent, except for the two rows of night duty soldiers standing opposite each other every few steps outside the tent door, there was no one there.
Xuyu's tent was not far from the imperial tent, only a few dozen steps away. She was accompanied by the palace eunuchs and maids to her own place. Just after she came out and took a few steps, she saw Yang Zaien and Pei Xiaoyuan coming from a distance.
