into the bosom

Chapter 151
Xu Jiao left the main courtyard and returned to Mingyue Residence, only to feel that her hands, feet, and even her whole body were very cold, and she trembled unconsciously.

Seeing her like this, Hong Ying and Neg Xue were startled, "Princess, what's wrong with you?"

Xu Jiao reached out to hug herself, but she was still trembling uncontrollably, her teeth were chattering, "I'm cold."

Lingxue quickly reached out to hug her, while Hongying quickly turned around and went to the inner room to grab a thick cloak and put it on Xu Jiao's shoulders.

It took Xu Jiao a while before he recovered, looked up at the two of them and said, "When I go to the Princess's mansion tomorrow, I'm afraid I'll have to repeat the old tricks. Either of you will go to Tongji and tell me something."

Seeing her expression, Hong Ying and Neg Xue didn't dare to have the slightest objection, so they hurriedly responded.

Then Xu Jiao raised his eyes, looked at the two of them quietly, and said, "Go down and rest, you won't be on duty tonight. Besides, Ban Lan won't come back in the future, it's just the two of you. How to be on duty, you can decide on your own." Here comes the charter."

Hong Ying and Neg Xue looked at each other, both suppressing all kinds of emotions in their hearts, and after a reply, they got up and retreated.

Xu Jiao was doomed to sleepless night.

When I arrived at the Eldest Princess' Mansion the next day, the Eldest Princess frowned when she saw her, "You have been hiding in Zhuangzi for so many days, why do you still look so bad?"

Xu Jiao smiled wryly, "Perhaps I was thinking about going to the Forbidden Garden with me in two days, so I was a little excited. When I came back, I woke up and couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning."

After hearing this, the Eldest Princess sneered, "Look at your prospects. Back then, when your father became famous at a young age and was often called by my father's side, it wasn't like you..."

Xu Jiao shook his head, "I'm not as good as my father, and I need my mother to take care of me so that I don't lose face."

She lowered her head, with a look of uneasiness and apprehension, and she looked very pitiful.

The eldest princess softly raised her hand and hooked her messy hair behind her ears, "Don't worry! With my mother here, what are you afraid of?"

With the words of the eldest princess, Xu Jiao felt really relieved, raised his hand and hooked the arm of the eldest princess, and smiled lovingly, "Mother is so kind!"

"Stop pouring me the ecstasy soup! Come on, I ordered some clothes and jewelry for you to wear in autumn a few days ago, and you can try them with Aqiao."

When leaving the Princess's mansion, Xu Jiao's mood was much relieved.

At nightfall, Xu Jiao finished washing, sat on the couch, and was about to go to sleep, but the night duty bear snow hurried in, and when she arrived in front of Xu Jiao, she took out a rolled-up paper from her cuff with a somewhat inexplicable expression. A cylindrical note that is only half the thickness of the little finger.

Xu Jiao was confused, took the note and unfolded it, his brows raised.

There were only three words on the note, "Man is alive", and Xu Jiao could read the handwriting, which was written by He Lianshu.

She raised the note in her hand and asked Negative Xue, "Where did it come from?"

The words were only brought to Tongji in the middle of the morning, and Xu Jiao originally estimated that there would be no news until tomorrow at the earliest, but who knew that the news was sent right now, and it was sent directly to Jingfu.

Although Xu Jiao knew that He Lianshu was capable, otherwise he would not have taken Ban Lan away under Jing Qin's eyes in Jingfu, but after all, he took a big risk.It's just sending a message, but there's really no need to go through a lot of trouble. If it is accidentally exposed to Jing Qin, it will be troublesome.

"It was Xiao Chen, the gardener in the courtyard, who secretly slipped it into the hands of the servant girl." The expression on Neg Xue was also very intriguing.

gardener?Xu Jiao was startled, before he knew it, He Teqin's hand had stretched so far?
But since she didn't make any big moves, it probably wouldn't cause too much trouble, plus the words on the note, it was all good news for her.Sure enough, Governor Helian is very reliable in his work.

Xu Jiao laughed, and seeing that Neg Xue burned the note on the candle, she turned and went to sleep.

Last night was almost a sleepless night, and tonight I let go of my thoughts, fell asleep on the pillow, had no dreams all night, and slept very well.

In the early morning of the second day, Xu Jiao stretched her waist and woke up contentedly.

Before opening his eyes, he heard the faint rustling of drizzle outside.

"Is it raining?" she asked softly.

There were small footsteps approaching, and while pulling up the curtain, Negative Snow replied, "Yes, it started to fall in the middle of the night, and it seems that it won't stop for a while. The weather is a bit cold today, and the lady should wear more."

The Mid-Autumn Festival is over, and the weather is naturally cold.

Xu Jiao nodded, and put on the clothes that Lingxue had chosen one by one.

Before she could dress well, Hongying came in a hurry, but there was still someone behind her.

Xu Jiao looked at it and said in shock, "Aunt Hong, why are you here?"

Aunt Hong looked at her with a smile and said, "The princess doesn't have to go to the eldest princess's mansion today. Someone came to the palace just now and sent a lot of things, some of which were for the princess. Your highness went to the palace to thank you, and asked the maid to bring The princess's reward is here. Let the princess take it easy today, and recharge your energy, and show off your skills in the Forbidden Garden."

Xu Jiao was naturally happy when he heard this. He took Aunt Hong's arm, and while talking to her affectionately, he took her to look at the rewards from the palace.

There is nothing special, just two riding clothes, some anti-mosquito sachets and wound medicines, and some saddles and the like, all of which are things that autumn scorpions will use.

Whether it is the eldest princess or Mrs. Zhao, Xu Jiao has prepared them all.

However, there is a small bow that looks pretty good. I tried it in my hand, and it was really good.Xu Jiao couldn't help showing an overjoyed smile, and kept holding the bow in his hand to look at it and test shooting... He couldn't put it down.

Seeing this, Aunt Hong smiled and said, "Your Highness already knew that the princess would like this. It seems that His Highness is still in love with the princess' mother and daughter."

"Your Majesty originally wanted to reward the princess with a horse, but His Highness said that the princess already has her own horse, and that horse is not bad. What's more, it is better to ride this horse on your own, so as to save the running-in, so I decide I declined for the Princess, and asked His Majesty for this bow."

"This bow is small and exquisite, but its shooting power is not weak, and it is made of high-quality materials. It is very rare, and it is suitable for the princess. Now that the princess likes it, His Highness must be very happy."

Xu Jiao listened, and the smile on his face became brighter again, "It's still my mother's thoughtful thinking."

"Your Highness said that the princess is destined to be with her. Since she is her daughter, good things will not be missing you in the future. Tell the princess secretly, except for this bow, your highness is still looking for it for the princess in private. If you touch something else, you can’t say when you will surprise the princess. At that time, the princess should act as if she doesn’t know anything, and be happy. Otherwise, if His Highness finds out that the servant girl is talkative, she will give her For the surprise prepared by the princess, the servant girl can only ask for punishment."

Holding the small bow, Xu Jiao felt warm in his heart, and the corners of his eyes were moistened slightly, but he smiled brightly at Aunt Hong, "Okay! Just keep Aunt Hong and I's little secret!"
