boudoir

Chapter 328
"Be careful, if you have something to do, go to the Hanlin Academy to find me."

She was so silent, Du Rui didn't know what to say.He glanced at the crowd gradually coming from the direction of Zichen Palace, his thin lips parted a few times, and finally he only said this sentence to her, then he turned around with his lips pursed, and walked quickly to Yongfu Palace.

Liuli watched his back disappear behind the shade of the tree, and then gradually let go of her hands.

"Yizhen!"

Qi Yunhao jumped up and stood in front of her, "Are you all right?"

Liuli shook her head, and looked at the pair of women surrounded by the Huxin Pavilion.It turned out to be the hands of the princess!It seems that she is really going to force her to lean towards Lu Zhao.But Qi Yunhao looked towards the Yonghe Palace, the crimson figure entered the Yonghe Palace just now, he didn't miss it.

"Let's go back!"

He picked her up and strode down the slope, where a soft chariot had already stopped.

Liuli still went back to the eastern suburbs, and meeting Du Rui suddenly made her feel uneasy for a while, but she had calmed down now. Before thinking about these things, how to protect herself under the conspiracy of the princess' party seemed more urgent.If the queen's method is to attack silently, then the crown princess is much more direct, what she wants is Liuli to make life easier.Moreover, it has reached the point of being unbearable.

If it wasn't for Du Rui and Qi Yunhao who had arranged for Lu Zhao's Huangying bodyguards to accompany her in secret today, even if she had kept the child in her belly today, she would have been scared to death.

Qi Yunhao accompanied her in the carriage, saw that she was silent, and did not speak.Huang Ying's guards just told him the truth, it was Du Rui who carried her away from the dangerous situation - of course, they also found out who threw the bucket, it was someone from the princess' palace.When they surrounded Liuli, the man had already fled.

He will get this debt back from the prince and his wife, but what does it mean that she didn't say a word after Du Rui left?
He looked at her for a long time, but she didn't notice.He was suddenly a little worried—every time it was about her, he would always feel this way, worried that she would be like the sunshine outside the car window, and eventually drift away from him to other places.

He knew that she was not the kind of woman who would look at Qin Muchu, but Du Rui's infatuation was too strong, which made him a little uncertain.In terms of status, they are evenly matched, in terms of status, they are equal, in terms of talents, each has its own strengths, and in terms of love for her - he thinks he is a bit more than him, at least, now that he is so dependent on her, he can She disregarded all the dignity in front of her, and would rather let people laugh at her husband's depression, can Du Rui do it?

Of course, a man can swear not to marry a wife for a woman, from a little marquis who is destined to inherit an undiminished title from birth, to giving up his title and working hard to become a Tanhua Lang, and then to the court, stepping on his own footsteps. Of course, it is not easy to get to the point of official career.It was easy to see Du Rui's mind.He did all kinds of things, whenever it was rumored that there was something between him and her husband and wife, he would do something, didn't he just want to work hard to climb to an equal position with him, and take Liuli back with his strength?But how could he let him succeed.On the day of the selection in the palace examination, it was heard that he ran into the camp, so he came out in advance.Otherwise, do you really have a fight with him?

Strictly speaking, he really didn't have much advantage over him.

But even so, what can he do to Du Rui, threaten him?Plot against him?Although he really wanted to beat him up, make him give up, stop coveting his wife, and even try to get him to a remote place, but this is not what he despises, so far, Du Rui has always kept etiquette to Liuli, except for letting the world know that he has such a tough rival in love, he has never really offended his dignity as a man. The guards made it very clear that the situation just now was indeed dangerous, Otherwise, he still wouldn't show up to meet her.In this way, even if he wanted to use his handle to deal with him, he couldn't.

Therefore, such an impeccable rival in love left him nowhere to speak, and it also made his teeth itch with hatred.And this kind of worry about gains and losses is what really makes people suffer.

The carriage suddenly jolted slightly, and he subconsciously pulled her into his arms.

Because of this, Liuli came back to her senses, and looked out the window: "Is it there yet?"

He hummed, "Here we are."

The carriage stopped at the bottom of the slope, and the uphill road was not smooth. He carried her out of the car and carried her all the way back to the room.

Seeing them coming back, Rui'er asked Chunxiang to fan her, and served Liuli a bowl of warm cuttlefish lotus seeds, and Qi Yunhao a bowl of cool lily soup.
After Liuli finished drinking the soup, Qi Yunhao said: "It's not as convenient to live here as in the city, and it's too late to ask the imperial doctor. I have almost made arrangements for the mansion, and I can go back to live at any time. When do you think you can go back to the mansion? You Don't worry, if you still want to live here after you go back, I'll spend another two days with you when I get back."

After all, this place is not as well-guarded as the palace.I asked the doctor in the morning, and the doctor said that it is almost four months now, the fetal position is stable, it is not as disturbed as it was in the first three months, and the village is spacious and spacious, so it is no harm to live there.Originally, he wanted to let her live again, but Du Rui had already met her, so that would not work.In case that kid couldn't hold back, wouldn't it be very bad to come here to pry his corner?

He was holding his little thoughts here, but Liu Li also sighed: "What you said is true, I should go back too. The queen just said that tomorrow she will send someone to the mansion to help me with housework. By the way, I'll help you. If I stay here again, I'm afraid someone will pry the corner of the wall!" He glanced at him and gritted his teeth.

Hearing her say that, he felt joy in his heart.He didn't bother to delve into the meaning of Liuli's words, and didn't want her to see anything, so he still had a serious face, like the usual general, and said slowly: "It's very true. You are in the mansion, and many things are up to you. There is no room for people to take advantage of. I just don't know who the queen will send?"

Liu Li held the soup bowl and looked at him with blank eyes: "Who else? Duan Wenhui! You have forgotten why I came here?"

Qi Yunhao really listened this time.

Since the queen sent people to the mansion tomorrow, it means that Liuli must be present.Of course, the empress also expected that she would not leave the mansion easily when she returned to the mansion, so Liu Li simply packed up all the things, and sent people back to the city to send another carriage over, ready to go back to the mansion in the morning. go.

In fact, he could have gone back home instead of going back to the eastern suburbs, but things happened suddenly, and there were still some things that he had to explain to Lai Wu and Feng Chun'er face to face, so he couldn't be greedy for convenience.

Qi Yunhao stayed here at night, and after dinner, he heard frogs croaking outside, and seeing Li Xing and the others go fishing for frogs, he got excited and went with them.When they came back in the middle of the night, they had a good harvest. A few people caught half a sack, and they were afraid that it would be ten to twenty catties. It would be enough to bring back tomorrow for Xie Er's family to cook for a few days.

Seeing that they were in high spirits, Feng Chun'er slaughtered half a pot of frogs on the spot, built a big fire, poured enough oil, grabbed a handful of Chaotian peppers and two handfuls of garlic, added a few slices of star anise cinnamon and dropped them into the oil pan, and then sizzled the frog meat. When it exploded, it was served in a large pot that was fried into a spicy and delicious flavor, and it made people's index fingers move when they looked at it and smelled it.Then Lai Wu brought another jar of wine and warmed some steamed buns, Qi Yunhao directed them to sit down and had supper with them.

Liuli also sat aside with her clothes on, seeing how delicious they were eating, but she didn't eat it herself.After seeing the live ones, she couldn't bear it.But these guards are different. They stay at the border for many years, and they can't easily eat fresh meat and vegetables. According to Qi Yunhao, when the military salary is not paid, in order to maintain their strength, the grass roots on the mountain and the scorpions and lizards in the desert are all eaten. I was so forced that I couldn't eat it, so I didn't avoid these things, Liuli imagined that kind of hardship, so she could understand.

So it is estimated that Dingbei King also likes it. After all, Huang and Yu Ermao really took good care of her. In view of this, she asked Yuegui to grab a pot of freshwater from the hands of the wolves, and confessed that she would reserve it when the time came. The King of the North sent it.

Qi Yunhao didn't eat either, but asked Feng Chun'er to order a bowl of noodles to eat.On the way, he picked some wild flowers for Liuli, and asked Haitang to put it in a water bottle as a gift for her.Liuli showed him the edict given by the Holy Majesty, and told him about Lu's meeting with Concubine Luo, but Du Rui's part was hidden.Qi Yunhao was also very happy to see the decree, and didn't ask her about Du Rui, but picked two of the largest and brightest flowers and put them in her temples.

Liuli is a little sleepy now, and when she woke up, Qi Yunhao had already gone to court, Li Xing stayed behind and escorted Liuli back to the mansion with all the guards.

When Wu Zhong and Fan Yun heard that Liuli was coming back, he greeted him at the gate. After Liuli returned to his room, Wu Zhong went to work without mentioning it.Liuli left Fan Yun behind, and said: "The queen sent someone to our room, and she came right after she spoke. You go to the backyard to tidy up a better room for this person to live in. All the equipment that should be used and equipped should be prepared. Don't neglect her."

Fan Yun heard that she was sent by the queen, and he was going to live in the backyard, so he knew it in his heart, looked at her eyes again, and immediately said: "Little one, I will follow grandma's orders, and I will not let the queen blame you. "

Liuli nodded and waved him away.

If it is really Duan Wenhui who will come later, then the courtyard must be so blocked that no one can get through the eye of a needle.Thinking of Qi Yunhao saying that everything in the house is ready, then he recalled calling Yuegui and said: "Go and see how the people in our yard are different." Then he remembered that he said that there were trees planted in the yard, so he hurriedly went out to have a look, and sure enough Next to the original big locust tree, a row of small trees were planted. According to the original growth rate, within a few years, it would indeed be able to grow to the height of a swing.

"Grandma! Grandma!"

Liuli was sitting on the porch basking in the morning sun, when someone suddenly shouted from the porch not far away.When she took a closer look, it turned out to be a big colorful parrot, so she couldn't help laughing.

"Grandma is very interested."

Suddenly someone spoke softly at the gate of the courtyard.Liuli looked back, Duan Wenhui was standing there with a smile on her face, covered in jewels and emeralds, followed by two little maids.Ye Tong and Liu Wei rushed in like an arrow to protect Liuli, his face still a bit embarrassed.A group of government soldiers also rushed in from the courtyard gates on both sides, and surrounded Liuli in the center to protect it tightly.
